the PRICING of products to customers based in different locations. In some cases differential PRICES may be charged to reflect the respective costs of physical DISTRIBUTION involved in moving goods from the factory to the buyer.
In other cases firms may simplify their pricing arrangements by means of a 'uniform delivered price system'which involves charging the same price to all customers irrespective of their location (for example post office letters). Alternatively, customers may be grouped into a number of delivery zones and a common price charged to all customers in each zone. Such 'basing point price systems' involve some cross-subsidization of delivery costs between customers in the interests of maximizing the firm's total sales. See PRICE DISCRIMINATION.
An important feature of the Australian mobile market is that robust competition in metropolitan areas and uniform geographical pricing restrains the ability of Telstra to charge higher prices to regional customers.
This is unfair and a fairer system of geographical pricing needs to be developed by the industry.
The company specializes in the marketing of vehicles on a national basis, which allows them to take advantage of seasonal and geographical pricing disparities.

SWIL Trade Council Asks Exporters to Respond to First Needs Survey
The Southwestern Illinois Trade and Investment Council, in collaboration with the International Trade Center at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, is conducting its first Export Needs Assessment Survey for the region.
Tapping into the pulse of what southwestern Illinois-based manufacturers need to begin or enhance their exporting is the survey's essence. Silvia Torres Bowman, director of the Illinois International Trade Center, encourages businesses to take a few moments to answer the 28-question survey.
To access the survey, visit surveymonkey.com/r/ITCSWILCOUNCIL. All businesses that are involved in exporting goods or services are strongly encouraged to participate and voice their opinions. All responses collected will be strictly confidential and will only be shared in aggregate form. The survey closes March 27, 2017.
"Our Council's unique role is promoting and increasing trade and investment activity in the region, and raising awareness of global exporting and foreign trade investment as a means of creating and maintaining economic stability and growth in southwestern Illinois," said Bowman. "We are conducting this survey to hear from business owners and managers who are seeking entry into foreign markets.
"We also want to measure their interest in participating in a trade mission. Missions are about opening doors for local entrepreneurs and developing long-term trade and investment opportunities in foreign markets. Missions build status and notability for entrepreneurs and help exporters to position themselves in foreign markets."
Connecting local companies that export directly with international customers poised for global growth is the heart of the Trade Council's mission, according to Council President David Kniepkamp. "We're seeking to recruit and support as many existing and future exporters in southwestern Illinois as possible. Our region is blessed with a tremendous international trade infrastructure that we don't need to recreate. Our goal is to intelligently connect exporters directly with international customers, and we are doing just that. We are having success. It's exciting."
Small to medium-sized companies typically do not possess the full-time resources to define, identify and expand into international markets, according to Kniepkamp. The SWIL Trade Council's role is to tap into its broad array of statewide, nationwide and international relationships to provide market industry research, existing trade resources, and ultimately a trade mission opportunity with follow-up support to make exporting and direct trade investment a reality for southwestern Illinois businesses.
Regional exporters are welcomed to join the Council at no charge.
For more information about how to do business globally and how to benefit from the Southwestern Illinois Trade & Investment Council, contact the International Trade Center at International-Trade-Center@siue.edu, (618) 650-3851 or by visiting siue.edu/business/itc.
The International Trade Center at SIUE serves businesses in southwestern Illinois by providing individualized, no-cost export consultation, identification of foreign buyers, agents and/or distributors through trade leads, international market analysis, and more.
The ITC is funded in part by the U.S. Small Business Administration, the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) and Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. It has a longtime partnership with the Illinois Office of Trade and Investment (OTI), which maintains a full-time staff of both foreign and domestic-based international trade and marketing experts. OTI also manages 10 foreign trade offices located in Belgium, Japan, Hong Kong, Mainland China, Mexico, Canada, Israel, India, Brazil and South Africa.

They say that high school is a time when you make friendships that last a lifetime. While I only graduated high school a few years ago and can't prove that's true yet, I do honestly believe it: somehow, if you can make it through four years of being pimply, moody teenagers together, I think your friendship can make it through most of life's trials. And I think that goes double when said high school students are dealing with chronic illnesses that occur most commonly in adults twice their ages.
Reagan and I met in our sophomore year of high school and instantly clicked. We texted each other constantly about the daily struggles of SAT prep, piano lessons, and physics homework. As the years have passed, our conversations have evolved to dorm room decorating ideas, excitement over reaching the legal drinking age, and talks of graduate school. Yet, our friendship isn't quite typical.
I've never actually met Reagan in person because we live over 1,000 miles apart from each other; we met through our mutual juvenile arthritis diagnoses. Shortly after her arthritis diagnosis, Reagan found my blog The Girl with Arthritis and sent me an email; the rest was history. When I was first diagnosed, I think the worst pain was the pain of loneliness, but Reagan really helped change that; finally, I had someone else who understood what it was like to function day to day in pain at age 16. Unlike everyone else, she understood the awkwardness of being so young and walking like an old lady, breaking out horribly due to hormones and prednisone, and hating the summer because shorts showed our puffy, inflamed knees to the entire world.
Since I was young, I was always told the importance of being friends with a diverse group of people. And while I do think that's important, I also feel it's very important for people who are chronically ill to have friends (or at least communicate) with people who are going through the same thing. Everyone wants to be truly listened to and completely understood, and while family and friends may be extremely supportive and try to sympathize, they likely have never felt the pain of being unable to tie your own shoes because your fingers can't move or being unable to sleep because even a light sheet causes pain.
The one thing I always recommend to people newly diagnosed with PsA is to find support groups. For teenagers and adults, this can often come in the form of online support groups. I'm part of a few on Facebook, and even though I don't always actively participate, it helps tremendously and I've grown close to a few people. A simple Facebook search can often find groups for those with psoriatic arthritis, multiple chronic illnesses, parents of children with arthritis, and even young adult groups (though, as the years go on, we're not quite that young anymore!). The Arthritis Foundation offers wonderful opportunities for children to come together and meet, such as through the annual conference and other planned events held locally. There are even a few summer camps that are available! At the end of the day, everyone wants to be understood and supported in their experiences, and those of us with arthritis are no exception. In my opinion, an understanding friend is the best medicine.

Actually it's working fine when i'm going with clicks. like its launching perfect than on click of login button it forwards to newsfeed and shows the expected result. but when I'm going from the browser url, its not loading side bar and top bar component from the home.html

A: I encountered with that problem. Here is how I solve this situation;

*

*Create a shared service with observable fields as explained in official angular documents

*In your navigation bar component, subscribe to value from shared service to display navigation bar

*In login and logout pages, update value. Since you already subscribe the value, subscriber handle this situation by itself

*Create an authentication service. Add a method similar to this to ask your backend, is request authenticated;

//method parameters depend on what you want
isAuthorized(url: string, errorCallback: (any) => void) {
        let body = JSON.stringify(url)
        return this.http.post('account/isauthorized', body)
            .map((response: Response) => {
                //update value to display navigation bar if user is authenticated
                yourSharedService.observableField.next(true);
                return true;
            })
            .catch((response: Response) => {
                errorCallback(response.status);
                return Observable.of(false);
            });
    }

*

*Create an authentication guard and call isAuthorized method in canActivate or canLoad or CanActivateChild.

*In your callback, handle unauthorized requests. You can redirect user to error pages or remove the navigation bar, and whatever you want.
I hope it helps!

A: I'm not sure if this fixes everything but I think you want to read the value from localstorage first to get the recently stored status and if you use BehaviorSubject listeners also get the last status if this.subject.emit() was called before a subscriber was subscribing.
@Injectable()
export class LoginService {
    //private subject: Subject<boolean> = new Subject<boolean>(false);
    private subject: BehaviorSubject<boolean> = new BehaviorSubject<boolean>(); // <<< changed
    constructor(private router : Router) {
      this.sublect.next(logalStorage.getItem('isLogin')); // <<< added
    }
    login(){
        this.setLogged(true);
        localStorage.setItem("isLogin","true");
        this.router.navigate(['/news-feed']);
    }
    logout(){
        this.setLogged(false);
        localStorage.removeItem("isLogin");
        this.router.navigate(['/login']);
    }
    getLogged(): Observable<boolean> {
        return this.subject.asObservable();
    }
    setLogged(val : boolean): void {
        this.subject.next(val);

If you're being charged with a grand theft offense, you could be facing felony penalties, including years in prison and thousands of dollars in fines. You don't need to face these accusations alone. The experienced attorneys of Yavitch & Palmer Co., L.P.A. work exclusively on criminal defense charges and can create a personalized defense to meet the needs of your case.
Having the right attorney can be the difference between time in prison and exoneration from the accusations leveled against you. With a crime as serious as grand theft, you want to make sure you have a capable team working on your side.
Grand theft in Ohio applies when the value of the property exceeds a certain amount or particular items were stolen. Grand theft is a felony and there is a presumption that someone convicted of grand theft should face jail time. Ohio law also lists several items that, if stolen, are punishable as grand theft regardless of their value, including firearms and dangerous ordnance or motorvehicles of any kind.
By partnering with Yavitch & Palmer, you gain experienced defense lawyers who fight the charges raised against you and ensure that you are not wrongfully convicted of the crime of grand theft. A well-planned defense can result in charges being reduced or dropped to avoid a felony conviction.

After landslide vote, Hingham begins water company takeover
Mary Whitfill
mwhitfill@patriotledger.com
HINGHAM — Town officials say they plan to work "as quickly as possible" to take over the reins at Hingham's privately owned municipal water system after winning an overwhelming victory in a long-anticipated town meeting vote Monday night
Selectmen met with representatives from Aquarion, the private company that currently owns and operates the system, on Tuesday morning just hours after nearly 80 percent of voters signaled their support for a $114 million plan that would bring the water system back under town control for the first time since 1879. Officials have not said how long the acquisition will take, but Selectman Mary Power said Tuesday that the next steps will include issuing initial bonds, putting out a request for bids for a water system operator and meeting with the state's Department of Environmental Protection about the change in ownership.
"As far as a timeline, we can't be definitive at this point," Power said. "In our meeting with Aquarion this morning, there was a mutual goal of a smooth and efficient transition. Both the town and Aquarion understand that it is in our individual and collective interest to do this as quickly as possible."
Voters gave selectmen the go ahead to buy the town's municipal water system — including its pipes, wells and treatment plant — at a Monday night town meeting that followed eight years of research, dozens of contentious public forums and hundreds of hours of meetings. The gym, auditorium and cafeteria at Hingham High School were overflowing with voters, who approved the purchase by a vote of 1,482 to 382 around 11:30 p.m.
Acquarion does not want to sell the system, which serves 12,700 customers in Hingham, Hull and North Cohasset, but the town is able to force a sale under a provision of a 1879 law that gives the town the right to buy whatever company owns its water infrastructure. The company, a subsidy of Eversource, has fought Hingham in court over the price of the system and campaigned heavily ahead of Monday's vote, buying several full page advertisements in The Patriot Ledger.
Hingham selectmen will borrow the money for the purchase and repay it over a 30-year period with revenue from water rate payers.
"I'm thrilled," Chrissy Robert of Pleasant Street said Tuesday. "It just struck a cord with me. For those of us who will reap the benefits past the 30-year bond, we're able to see that it's more than just financial and more than just the three people sitting on the board of selectmen. This is a decision that will affect this town that we love for generations."
Power says the town will start looking for a third-party water system operator as soon as possible. She said the request for bids will likely include language that gives preference to companies who look to retain as many of the system's current employees as they can.
Selectmen will also look to hire a water superintendent, a town employee that will oversee the water system operation company. A citizen's advisory board will be established and include one resident from Hull, one from North Cohasset and three from Hingham. The state's environmental agency will continue to oversee water quality, but the state department of public utilities will no longer regulate water rates. Instead, the rates will be set by selectmen acting as water commissioners. They will be advised by the citizen board.
Voters approved four measures on Monday, allowing selectmen to raise and spend $114 million; approving the initial governance structure for town ownership and operation; establishing an enterprise fund and approving a first-year budget of $13 million; and allowing selectmen to spend $250,000 on transition costs. Aquarion is legally obligated to help the town in the transition period under the 1879 law that allowed the privatization of the utility in the first place.
"It's been an arduous process for both sides, we are extremely disappointed for the residents of Hingham, Hull and North Cohasset that we did not prevail," John Walsh, vice president of Aquarion, said in a statement Tuesday. "We look forward to working with town officials on a speedy, orderly and seamless transition process and we thank everyone who supported us."
Since selectmen decided earlier this year to put the topic up for vote at town meeting, the question has sharply divided residents and town officials. Political signs popped up in yards all over town, some reading "Yes Hingham Water" and others that say "Keep Aquarion." The water system serves customers in three towns, but Hingham residents were the only ones allowed to vote on the purchase.
Jennifer Constable, selectman in Hull, said she's pleased by results of the vote. She acknowledged that some residents remain skeptical that their water system will be in the hands of officials in another town, but said she's hopeful the new leadership will bring positive change.
"In Hull, Aquarion for too long has had a pattern of non-investment and, even more so, lack of accountability," Constable said Wednesday. "It's not uncommon for us to have multiple main breaks and to see that for consecutive weeks. That just has to come to a stop. I feel that under the municipal control, there is a higher bar of accountability and we will hold Hingham to that."
Some opponents of the acquisition were blocked from speaking Monday because of a rule that allows only Hingham residents to address the meeting unless a majority of voters allow them to. Three Aquarion officials who wished to speak were unable to garner enough votes, leaving the company's attorney, who lives in Hingham, as the sole representative to speak on its behalf. Jim O'Hare, organizer of the citizens' group Keep Aquarion, and several other residents spoke against the purchase as well.
"We have good water in Hingham now," O'Hare said at the meeting. "Buying a company does not usually work out as planned. The acquisitions take longer, cost more and usually don't live up to the proposed benefits to the buyer."

The Bad Luck Issue – Variation Recap
By Team Unwinnable • March 21st, 2016
Every month, Unwinnable Monthly presents Variation, a section dedicated to off-theme stories and lengthy column. This month, we have thoughts on the Street Fighter movie, the Path of the Dragon from Dark Souls, Undertale, LISA, Retro Invasion on tap.
"Byteclub: Street Fighter," by Brock Wilbur and Nathan Rabin
Brock Wilbur and Nathan Rabin suffer through the Street Fighter movie.
Street Fighter is a 1994 attempt to fictionalize the adventures of the characters in a videogame series that was held together by different men and women with an impossible number of muscles punching each other to death. This film also specifically notes that it is an adaptation of Street Fighter II which seems like a meaningless, legal note, since there is no more or less plot in the second game as opposed to the first. This film hits theaters after the Bob Hoskin's Super Mario Brothers movie but before Paul W. S. Anderson would sort of crack the game adaptation the next year with Mortal Kombat: The Movie.
To this end, Street Fighter sets itself in a fictional country of Shadaloo City. Yes, the country is also a city, like The Vatican I suppose? An evil warlord has taken over, using drug money to fund futuristic weapons, and is now murdering volunteers from the faux U.N. group, the Allied Nations. There are hostages and ticking clocks for various end-of-world situations, but more importantly, this marks the first time a drug dealer has had enough money to make future weapons available to his insane army. It's a logic point that makes me wish Breaking Bad could have eventually tied-in Star Wars blasters and maybe a Rocketeer of some sort.
"My Inner Scales," by Ario Elami
Ario Elami finds an intriguing role-playing opportunity in Dark Souls' Path of the Dragon.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was where I first felt some deeper – and, at the time, unexplainable – connection to a character when the protagonist, Link, was sent into a magical slumber and awoke as an androgynous teenager. Somehow, it was exciting to be a beautiful young man. This carried over to an interest in the Castlevania series' latter protagonists who were, nearly without exception, men with long eyelashes, placid lips and cascading hair. Each recalled Donatello's statue of David, who cocks a hip to one side and holds a sword half the length (and maybe half the weight) of his lithe body. This was a bit hard to appreciate in most of the actual games, since the characters were reduced to bunches of pixels, so most of the appreciating was done through Ayami Kojima's manga-meets-baroque official art.
Dark Souls was where I found a virtual space to consciously roleplay on a deeply fulfilling level. It drew out a part of myself that I didn't know existed, like Ocarina of Time and those Castlevania titles, but it did so at an opportune point – when I was connecting to a wider range of people while discovering more of myself – and offered both an obsession-inducing world and a dramatically secret, alternative and weird way of fitting into that world.
"Two Painful RPGs," by Steven Wright
Two recent indie RPGs, Undertale and LISA: The Painful RPG, take inspiration from the classic Earthbound, but only one is a critically lauded success. Why?
It is important not to overstate the splash that [Undertale] made with its impromptu dive into deeper waters than Fox intended. While some games writers seem blissfully unaware of its existence, the game's all-important Steam user review quotient sits at an indeed "overwhelming" 97% positive, a number that represents the rarest of all gaming phenomena: a clear consensus.
Here stands Undertale, a game for which all the stars aligned. The professionals love it; all the disparate strands of "gamer" love it; and I love it. It's feel-good fun for everyone. Success and talent are intertwined, their paths immutably set for all to admire.
Okay, maybe not. Best case-scenario, it's maybe 50-50 – and I'm not even convinced of that.
"Revving the Engine: Retro Invasion," by Stu Horvath
In our ongoing series of interviews with the winners of Unreal Dev Grants, sponsored by Unreal Engine 4, Stu chats with Wolf Lang, one of the developers of Retro Invasion.
Homage is an interesting trend in games. How do you approach making the various homages in Retro Invasion?
One of our motivations for Retro Invasion is to keep the memories of memorable game design efforts alive. The concept is not to copy these ideas but to put on a twist on these mechanics and combine them with the modern game world. For example, in one scene you have this half voxelized garbage man who throws trashcans from a driving garbage truck. Rik and Mike are chasing him and they need to avoid the garbage barrels. This is a lose adaption of the classic Donkey Kong barrel mechanic, but set with a modern spin. This is our current recipe for the Retro Invasion: mini games. The ideas need to stand on their own, but should also put a smile on the people who are reminded of their childhood games. This is a sensitive mixture and can easily move into the "Nostalgia Exploit" area if you don't watch it carefully!

Sculptor and educator Duane Hanson (1925-1996) spent most of his career in South Florida and is best known for his hyper-realist sculptures of people. Duane Hanson was born January 17, 1925 in Alexandria, Minnesota. His family later moved to Parkers Prairie, Minnesota where he created his first sculpture in wood at the age of 13. He graduated from Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota and completed his education with an MFA from the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan. During school and after, Hanson created realistic and grotesque sculptures of taboo subjects and other sculptures depicting physically violent occurrences.
In 1962, Hanson accepted a teaching position at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, Georgia where he remained for three years. At Oglethorpe, Hanson received grant funds to create his most well-known works out of resin and fiberglass. He moved to South Florida in 1965, where he continued to sculpt life-size human forms with detailed features and accessories.
Art dealer Ivan Karp at O.K. Harris Gallery took an interest in the works and represented Hanson, who moved to New York City to continue his career. He exhibited at numerous solo exhibitions in the United States and Germany. In 1973, Hanson returned to South Florida where he would remain for the duration of his life. His retained the national spotlight, however, and was very active in the Florida art scene. He was named Florida Ambassador of the Arts in 1983. Duane Hanson married his second wife, Wesla in 1968, with whom he had two children. Also, he had two children from a previous marriage which ended in divorce. Hanson died of cancer in January of 1996.
The collection was processed to a minimal level and a finding aid prepared by Jayna Hanson in 2012, with funding provided by the Terra Foundation for American Art.
The Archives of American Art has implemented minimal processing tactics when possible in order to increase access to more of our collections. Minimal processing included arrangement to the series and folder levels. Generally, items within folders were simply verified with folder titles and dates, but not arranged further. Folder titles were mostly transcribed from original folder headings and the original order was maintained. The collection was rehoused in archival containers and folders. Staples and other fasteners were not removed.

Haley Cavinder on her second triple-double this season: "definitely something cool"
1 dead, 1 seriously injured in Tulare County crash
by: John Houghton
VISALIA, Calif. (KSEE/KGPE) – A 16-year-old driver suspected of driving while intoxicated was arrested after a crash killed an 18-year-old man and left a passager,17, with major injuries, according to California Highway Patrol officers.
The crash happened around midnight Sunday night on Highway 137 west of Road 68 in Tulare county.
CHP officials said a 16-year-old boy was driving a Toyota Camry westbound on Highway 137, in the vicinity of Road 68 with a 17-year-old passenger in the right front seat and a man,18, in the right rear seat.
Officials said the Camry veered off the roadway and collided with several trees north of Highway 137.
The driver had minor injuries, the right front passenger sustained major injuries and the rear passenger died at the scene.
The 16-year-old was arrested and was booked at the Tulare County Juvenile Detention facility., CHP officers said.

This very handsome church was designed by Cram, Goodhue & Ferguson and completed in 1911 and was built by the South Reformed Church, a Dutch Reformed congregation that was founded in 1693.
This gray-stone building subsequently became the Park Avenue Presbyterian Church in 1914 and then was acquired in 1945 by the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).
Louis Comfort Tiffany designed the large window facing Park Avenue.
"Abruptly vertical, this Gothic church has been compared to the Sainte-Chapelle in Paris because of its proportions and its slender 70-foot spire, known as a fleche," noted David W. Dunlap in his fine book, "Glory in Gotham, Manhattan's Houses of Worship, A Guide to Their History, Architecture and Legacy," a City & Country Guide published in 2001 (see The City Review article).


Do you tweet? – ..:: NJ Brideau ::..
And by tweet I am referring to the ubiquitous social networking site Twitter. With so many social networking sites to choose from, (Bookface, Myspace, LinkedIn, blah, blah, blah) I didn't quite grasp tweeting. About two months ago, I figured that I was pretty much the only person NOT on Twitter, so I joined.
You can follow me at http://www.twitter.com/njbrideau. I started using the service as a way to track all the funny foods our cat ate. Then I forgot about it for a while, and when I wanted to add peanut butter to the list, I found out that the messages are frequently purged from their servers. Truthfully, even though I consider myself an early adopter of technology related items, I still do not understand Twitter.
I have managed to find twitter feeds for many athletes, celebrities, news channels, writers, and friends, and their posts serve to create a nice distraction now and again from my daily routine. It must be a big deal, which is why Facebook changed their system to include "news feed" a while back, and why Google trotted out the failed "Google Buzz" tool recently. Even Mark Cuban, a man who has made a fortune on internet and technology related businesses, loves the potential news sharing aspect of Twitter.
So does it work for news? Last week I decided to find out.
I believe one of the major reasons this story became so big was because of the internet and social networking sites like Twitter. Imagine if OJ Simpson had done what he did today? The internet might have exploded. So to test my theory, I decided to type "Tiger" into the search box of Twitter during his speech, and find out what happened.
What happened is beyond what I expected. I typed in "Tiger" and a list of other people's tweets popped up below. Then I got the notice you see above, that 1,342 more tweets had occurred since I started searching — just 30 seconds earlier. During the middle of his speech, I would estimate the tweets with the term "tiger" at ~4000 per minute, or 66 per second.
Are other of the so-called trending topics on twitter this popular. Probably. What does it mean? I have no idea. Most of my tweets are just duplicates of my facebook status. Anyone else use Twitter? What are your opinions? What are your call signs/names?
Tweet, David! Zane doesn't Tweet!

Hitler's 'Ghost Train' May Contain Fabled Russian 'Amber Room'
The mysterious Nazi 'ghost train' in Poland may contain an ornate room stolen from St. Petersburg, Russia in 1941. As C2C previously reported, two men claimed to have found the train lost beneath the caverns of Poland, and were seeking a finder's fee before revealing the location. Polish law enforcement expressed concern that the train may be laden with more than art treasures. It could be booby-trapped with deadly explosive charges. But what lies inside the train?
One theory posits that the famous Amber Room - a long sought-after ornate room that disappeared during WWII – could be among the cargo. The Russian 18th century room was reputed to be an "8th Wonder of the World" with palatial walls festooned with amber, gold and pearls. The Amber Room, once located in the Catherine Palace in St. Petersburg was originally constructed by Prussians in the 18th Century. It was reportedly looted by the German Army Group North and transported to Konigsberg for reconstruction and display.
Yet, there are those who believe the room was lost during the German bombardment of the city. If the Amber Room still existed, its value is conservatively estimated to be more than $275 million. Russian lawyers are said to be gearing up for legal reparation if any of their country's stolen plunder is aboard the Nazi "ghost train". "Representatives of Russia should undoubtedly be involved in determining the value of the items discovered if the train is located…in accordance with international law," lawyer Mikhail Joffe said.
Meanwhile, Poland has its hands full fending off an out-of-control gold rush as amateur fortune hunters wander aimlessly with metal detectors. These prospectors have swarmed the city of Walbrzych – the alleged site of the missing train. Provincial Gov. Tomasz Smolarz revealed that law enforcement has beefed up security. Local cops and railroad guards are now vigilantly patrolling the area, sending "gold rushers" packing. "People have been barred from the woods" and from taking selfies on train tracks, he told AP.

Most sleep experts agree that buying an appropriate mattress is one of the largest and most important financial investments you can make in your sleep, but when it comes to improving the quality and quantity of your sleep, a good pillow is almost as important as a good mattress. It helps keep your neck and head in the proper alignment with the rest of your body and therefore supports a healthy sleep posture crucial for achieving a comfortable and sound night's sleep and waking without pain and stiffness, and you just have to pick the right one that will best work for you.
In today's review, we'll take a look at the Nectar pillow created by the Nectar mattress company and designed to match the quality and adaptive feel of their mattress (click here to read the full Nectar mattress review). It is available for purchase either with or separate from the Nectar mattress, and further in this review, you'll learn more about its construction and benefits.
You can order the Nectar pillow directly from the company's website. It comes compressed in a plastic package and expands into its shape immediately after you open it.
There is not much smell/off-gassing coming from it which is pretty surprising given its all foam construction and the fact that it comes wrapped in a plastic package.
This pillow is designed to be adjustable in overall volume and height while retaining a memory foam material construction. It is stuffed with three types of visco-elastic shredded memory foam, and it perfectly contours to your head and neck. The pieces of memory foam vary in size, and they are protected by the inner pocket of the pillow. This means that you can customize the loft of your pillow to achieve optimal comfort by adding or removing the filling which is something we especially like about the Nectar and other adjustable pillows in general.
The Nectar pillow has a quilted Tencel cover which gives it a unique look and feel and matches the design of the Nectar mattress. We like that the cover is made of Tencel as it is softer and more breathable than cotton.
Tencel is also known to be one of the most environmentally friendly materials present on today's market. It is comfortable against the skin, wicks away heat and works together with shredded foam to promote the circulation of air through the pillow and prevent the build-up of heat and the feeling of stickiness usually present with many other memory foam pillows.
The cover is removable and washable which means that you can easily take it off by using the zipper and wash it if it gets dirty. The company recommends using mild soap and water, patting gently the pillow, squeezing the water out and letting it dry naturally without using a washer or dryer.
On the first sight, we thought this pillow looked too thick. Initially, it put our necks at a steep angle and did not seem so comfortable, but after removing some of its filling, we adjusted its loft to our liking, and now we think it's perfect.
It doesn't sag and offers better support than other memory foam products. It is supportive to keep your head and neck in proper alignment with the rest of your body while it is also soft enough to prevent the appearance of pressure points and provide a comfortable night's sleep.
As the Nectar pillow is designed to be fully customizable and adaptive, it is suitable for all sleep positions and body types. You just need to remove or add the right amount of foam to make it work for you, and you can save the remaining filling and always add more foam if your preferences change.
Unlike many other pillows we have slept on so far, this one does not cause any pain or discomfort in our upper backs or neck. We feel our heads and necks are well supported throughout the night without feeling like we are sleeping on something too firm and stiff.
The Nectar pillow also sleeps significantly cooler than other pillows due to its shredded foam construction, the use of gel-infused memory foam, and Tencel cover known for its cooling and moisture wicking properties and breathability. Therefore, it does not cause the buildup of heat and the feeling of stickiness typical for memory foam products which can make your head get too warm in the night and cause excessive sweating.
So, this pillow has everything that is necessary to keep you cool and comfortable throughout the entire night and help you get enough of sound and quality night's sleep necessary to wake up feeling refreshed, relaxed and totally ready to start the new day.
The Nectar pillow comes in at a fraction of the prices of the in-store memory foam pillows and costs only $75 which is an extremely reasonable price given its high quality and extraordinary design.
Although the company offers no sleep trial period for the pillow, it offers a 90-day refund policy on unopened product and a 30-day refund if the pillow has been opened which gives you enough time to try out the pillow, see if it suits you, and make sure there are no defects.
Click here for the best price on the Nectar pillow.
Is the Nectar Pillow Right for You?
Customizable, high-quality pillows – Most pillows are just one flat piece of foam, or they are filled with feather or shredded poly foam and don't allow any kind of customization. The Nectar pillow, on the other hand, is a fully customizable pillow stuffed with the highest-quality foams which you can add or remove to achieve the level of comfort and support you need.
Cool-sleeping pillows – The Nectar pillow incorporates several technologies in its design to keep you cool, from a quilted memory foam cover, breathable and gel-infused foams inside it, to a moisture-wicking Tencel. Therefore, it is an ideal option for all those looking for a pillow that can provide them with a cool and comfortable sleep throughout the entire night.
Memory foam feel – This pillow provides contouring and hug typical for memory foam, and it is soft enough to prevent the appearance of pressure points without causing you to feel trapped in foam.
If you are looking for a new pillow, you should definitely consider purchasing the Nectar pillow. Being made of three different types of premium foam, it is far more supportive than traditional pillows and suitable for all sleeping styles. It is adjustable in that it allows you to remove or add back its filling to achieve the softness that will best work for you. It offers enough support to keep your neck and head in proper alignment with the rest of your body and enough softness and comfort to prevent the appearance of pressure points and provide a continuous and restful night's sleep.
So, if you are looking for an adjustable highest-quality pillow, the Nectar is definitely an option worth looking at.

Q: How to find Memory SIZE of records returned in a SQL Query in Oracle? I am hitting a query which returns 10,000 Records.
SELECT * FROM employee WHERE id < 11000;

The data returned consists of 85 Columns (varchar, date, no.).
(Also i have another similar query gets data consist of just 10 columns(varchar).)
Is there any way in Oracle to find the data size of this resultset? Like the data loaded will be of 100 MB or 200 MB
Requirement: Actually i need to load all records in memory; for these records for some processing in Java. So i need to check size of data using some preconditions in Oracle or Any other appropriate way you can suggest to check same? (I have production access. So i will implement logic after checking data size).
This precheck is just to avoid Out of memory exceptions in java.
IF i copy whole data and save it in file it shows only 604 KB for 10,000 records having 8 columns. Does the same will there in memory?

A: Generally you can use Java's instrumentation capabilities to determine the memory consumption at runtime. For some information on that have a look here:

*

*In Java, what is the best way to determine the size of an object?

*https://www.baeldung.com/java-size-of-object
However, it is not always that easy to termine the actual memory consumption for various reasons, some of them being:

*

*Frameworks, libraries and even the JVM might create copies of your data or cache and reuse it

*Queries might return differently sized results, especially when variable length column types like VARCHAR are used. You'd have to read that data to determine the actual size of the corresponding objects

*Some objects might be referenced by multiple others so their size might be included incorrectly (e.g. if some enum constant is used that might be counted into the object size but it wouldn't actually add to the increase because it's most likely already been loaded anyway).

Additionally in most business applications you don't need to bother with determining the exact memory consumption a piece of code results in. Again there are various reasons, e.g.:

*

*Memory is cheap so if you run into problems it's often easier to (at least temporarily) increase available memory than (micro-) optimizing a piece of code.

*System usage and load often isn't as predictable due to changing situations (e.g. number of active users, changes in data etc.)

*The JVM often is able to efficiently use garbage collection to reclaim memory for other things.

This doesn't mean that you shouldn't think about memory usage though, e.g. do you really need all those 10k rows in memory at once? How long do you need that data and what are you doing with it?
That being said it's often helpful to roughly estimate memory consumption and in the case of a query that could return a lot of strings you should estimate the worst case, i.e. assume maximum length strings.
To do that you'll need some knowledge about what your rows will contain, e.g. whether integer numbers Integer, Long or BigInteger instances or how many columns there could be. Additionally you'll need to know at least the memory requirements for the data types, i.e. we don't take any caching, duplication, overhead for ResultSet and the like into account.
The sizes for Java objects depend on various things, e.g. which JVM you're using, whether it is a 32- or 64-bit JVM etc. Various sources state that an object's memory consumption can be calculated from the Object header (which often is stated to be 12 bytes in size) and the size of the object's fields.
Using that we'll assume Integer to have a size of 16 bytes (12b header and 4b int), Date would be 24 bytes (12b header, 8b fastTime and 4b cdate reference), String would be 12b header, 4b char[] reference, 8b other fields, 12h char[] header and 2*length bytes for the characters themselves (or 36 + 2 * length in total).
Thus let's say your 85 columns are split into 20 integers, 10 dates and 55 strings of 256 bytes max length. One row would that need at least 20 * 16 + 10 * 24 + 55 * 548 = 30700 bytes. 10k rows would thus need 307000000 bytes or roughly 300 MB (when all strings are at maximum length).

If I copy whole data and save it in file it shows only 604 KB for 10,000 records having 8 columns.

Let's break that down a little as well:

*

*604 KB would be 618496 bytes (1024 being one KB)

*Devide that by 10k and you get 61.8 bytes per row on average

*Devide that by 8 and you get 7.7 bytes per column (if we don't take any row or column delimiters into account)

*Let's round it up to 8 bytes per column and let's assume your text file is Latin-1 encoded (so 1 byte per char), thus each text column has 8 chars on average which is pretty short

In an easier calculation, if we use the same asumptions as above, 604KB would mean your data would consist of roughly 604k characters, which in Java would need 1208k bytes (or about 1.2 MB) just for the character data alone. Add to that the overhead for 80k strings, i.e. 36 bytes * 80k which is about 2.8 MB more so that data would need about 4 MB in memory.


MCARTHUR – Police announced the posting of a $200 cash reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the individual responsible for what the department described as offensive and vulgar graffiti.

Gamera vs. Guiron
Posted by Tim Brayton Posted on Sep - 11 - 2014 4.5 Comments
Review All Monsters! Shell! Teeth! Eyes! Flames! Claws! Breath! Scales! Fun!
It eventually had to happen, of course. Across four films from 1965-1968, Daiei's series of films about the giant monster turtle Gamera had ranged from not too bad, to not bad enough to stop being delightful, to bad enough that their badness made them delightful. But the tank had been empty for a while, and finally the franchise just plain stalled out with its fifth entry, 1969's Gamera vs. Guiron, where we hit the point of complete unwatchability. It's not that much of anything has changed: for enormous swaths of its running time, Gamera vs. Guiron functions almost as a straight remake of the previous year's Gamera vs. Viras, made by most of the same creative team, including director Yuasa Noriaki and screenwriter Takahashi Nisan. Though one man who didn't come back from that film was composer Hirose Kenjiro, replaced in scoring duties by Kikuchi Shunsuke (his first Gamera picture, but not his last - he scored all the remaining first-wave films in the franchise). And this confirms my suspicion that Gamera vs. Viras only turned out to be as fun as it was thanks to Hirose's unexpected, jazzy surf-rock score, adding just the right touch of "...wait, what?" to an otherwise junky kiddie monster movie. Oh, sure, the most salient contribution he made to the series is back, the rousing march "Tsuyoi-zo Gamera" with an all-boy choir spouting their nonsensical praise of the turtle savior of humanity and humanity's children. It shows up twice, no less! But there's a lot of movie beyond that, and it is slow-burning death. Not even one of the most shockingly daft monster designs in the entire history of the daikaiju eiga can turn Gamera vs. Guiron into anything pleasant to watch. I consider myself a purist about watching subtitled foreign-language films versus dubbed ones, but in this case, I think the morbidly curious would be better off watching American producer Sandy Frank's VHS dub from the '80s; at least that's so outlandishly incompetent that it's funny.
But fool that I am, I watched the Japanese original for this review, an in that version we open with a gambit taken right out of the '50s American sci-fi cliché grab bag, Over blurry still photos of nebulae and galactic objects, a stentorian narrator (is there any other kind, in cheap monster movies?) spouts some kind of portentous nonsense about the unknowability of the universe, and the discovery of a new wave from space. "WAVES FROM SPACE" bellows the newspaper headline, in a shot taken right out of the '30s American cliché grab bag. And this wave is quite exciting to everyone, leading Dr. Shiga (Funakoshi Eiji) to hold a press conference to find out what it is.
Dr. Shiga, however, matters not one whit to the rest of the movie, since we have a cluster of young people who already know what's up. Japanese boy Akio (Kajima Nobuhiro), his American friend Tom (Christopher Murphy) - there's bound to be some fascinating sociology explaining why these movies made for an audience of Japanese children suddenly found it very important to have American co-leads for their juvenile heroes, but I am afraid I can't even guess what it might be - and Akio's little sister Tomoko (Akiyama Miyuki), are a trio of space nuts, and they're well aware that it has to be aliens. Akio and Tomoko's mother (Hamada Yuko) is rather down on this, but not enough to prevent the children from going off and doing whatever silly nonsense they like, which involves biking to what proves to be the landing site of a small spaceship. Over Tomoko's objections, the boys scramble in, and are immediately whisked away, almost dying in a collision with a meteor, saved only because Gamera suddenly flies in to bounce the debris from their path. Because Gamera is not merely friend to all children, apparently he stalks them as well.
The craft lands on the planet Terra, which is on Earth's exact orbit but precisely on the opposite side of the sun, so we've never been able to see it. We don't learn that yet; all we know now is that the boys have landed in wildly unconvincing rear-projection of a ruined city, where a silver Gyaos shows up to attack them (you remember Gyaos, right? The daikaiju vampire from Gamera vs. Gyaos? Because this one is just that, spray-painted silver). The monster triggers the arrival of another creature from beneath a pool outside the biggest building, and though we don't know yet that this is Guiron, we've seen the title, and can guess.
And Guiron? Oh, he's a pip. Basically a quadrupedal hammerhead shark with an enormous blade extending straight out from his body instead of the hammer. And with enormous, disconcertingly expressive cow eyes. His fight with the Gyaos is easily the film's highlight, the only action sequence in the whole thing that's remotely well-edited, and astonishingly violent, to boot: Guiron uses his giant knife-nose to reflect the Gyaos's sonic beams and slice limbs off the space bat, one at a time, ending with its head. This gives us a good chance to see that Gyaoses apparently have uniform purple interiors with neither a skeletal structure nor organs.
Guiron returns to his pen after beating this enemy, and the boys are warped into the control room of, apparently, the last two Terrans: a pair of evil Space Babes called Florbella (Kasahara Reiko) and Barbella (Kai Hiroko). Not that they seem evil at first; they're actually quite plaintive in explaining to the boys the history and doomed fate of Terra, overrun by space monsters and running out of energy, with only Guiron to protect it. This may or may not be true, but it's a blind, anyway: what they women really want is to eat the boys' brains, and to do this they lull them into a stupor and scan their memories. Yes, this means stock footage of the previous Gamera films. And having learned that all the children of Earth are protected by a giant turtle guardian, the Terrans are prepared for a fight, and when Gamera arrives to fight Guiron, he is shortly bested and dropped, bleeding and near death, to the bottom of the sea.
To this point, Gamera vs. Guiron has merely been bad; from the start of Gamera vs. Guiron, Rd. 1, it becomes actively unpleasant and never ceases. The fight is a colossal misfire, edited with an eye towards making things as complicated as possible (the physical relationship between the two kaiju is at times literally indecipherable, and staged clumsily between two rather unwieldy fighters - Gamera is played, often as not, by a rigid model that's just kind of swung into Guiron. And once it's over, the film's plot just fucking stops, with scenes that meander around, and cutaways back to Earth, where the boys' mothers are hugely unconcerned with their sons' disappearance, and no clear sense of what, exactly the Terrans are planning to do besides eat two random Earth children. The second monster fight is at least moderately better than the first, owing mostly to how much sillier it is (like the raptor scene in The Lost World: Jurassic Park, it involves using the power of gymnastics to save the day), but it's still not "good", and the movie needs a lot more to redeem it by that point.
It's just so, so dreadful: the effects work is embarrassingly shoddy, with process shots that look so bad, it's almost easier to assume the characters are watching a low-resolution TV monitor than looking through a window at the monsters, and a Gamera who spends most of the movie looking like a big toy. The score - again, the primary reason that Gamera vs. Viras turned out halfway decent, despite sharing all of this film's flaws and compounding two of them (it had a much worse American boy actor, and far more stock footage) - is particularly terrible, bogged down in frothy, frivolous "happy kids! yay!" noodling around for much of the film. The adult actors are all irritating, though how much of that is the performance and how much is the writing, I cannot say. Certainly, Omura Kon, playing the local goofy cop Officer Kondo, target of the kids' mockery, could never redeem his role, and playing it as the Japanese Don Knotts is probably the best he could manage to do.
The movie is boring and ugly, but neither of these are as devastating as how insipid it is: the worst kind of children's entertainment, in which everything is pitched at a goofy, jolly level that prohibits any real sense of drama, and the kid protagonists are idealised to ridiculous lengths. Such as an endless scene in which they discuss the ins and outs of supersonic travel, showing off their incredible knowledge and strangling the movie to death with unwonted fury. It's all very silly, but not the fun kind of silly, not the energetic kind; it's the silly that happens when you've made five Gamera films in five years, and you begin to hold them in a kind of tangible, toxic contempt.
