Rover Curiosity lands on Mars
by City News Service August 6, 2012 October 26, 2021
After a 36-week, 154-million-mile journey capped by a highly complex but flawlessly executed landing sequence, the rover Curiosity spent its first full day on Mars today at the dawn of a two-year $2.5 billion mission designed to determine if the Red Planet ever supported life and if it can do so in the future.
With excitement from Sunday night's successful landing still lingering in the air at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, mission managers were getting down to the work of getting the rover ramped up for its long job ahead.
"We have ended one phase of the mission, much to our enjoyment and to the joy of a lot of folks here in the audience on our own team, but another part has just begun," one of the mission managers, Michael Watkins, told reporters at JPL in Pasadena.
JPL scientists released a photo taken by another NASA Mars exploration vehicle–the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter–that captured Curiosity floating down to the Mars surface. The photo was taken from 211 miles away.
"Guess you could consider us the closest thing to paparazzi on Mars," said Sarah Milkovich, a JPL scientist who works with the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment camera on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. "We definitely caught NASA's newest celebrity in the act."
Scientists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Canada Flintridge, from where the mission is being run, cheered and hugged each other when it was announced that Curiosity landed at 10:32 p.m. Pacific time Sunday near the foot of a mountain three miles tall and 96 miles in diameter inside Mars' Gale Crater.
"Today, the wheels of Curiosity have begun to blaze the trail for human footprints on Mars," said NASA Administrator Charles Bolden. "Curiosity, the most sophisticated rover ever built, is now on the surface of the Red Planet, where it will seek to answer age-old questions about whether life ever existed on Mars–or if the planet can sustain life in the future."
Curiosity soon sent back its first picture, a wide-angle scene of rocky ground, then a clearer version of the same, followed by an image from the other side of the rover–a plutonium-powered laboratory on six wheels that weighs a ton and is the size of a small car.
The rover's primary mission today will be raising its high-gain antenna, which will enable better communication with JPL scientists. Mission managers will also be assessing the status of the rover's instruments.
But the Rover's first foray from its landing site will not take place until next month; no soil examination is to take place until the middle of September at the earliest, and no rock drilling will occur before October.
Curiosity is billed as the most scientifically advanced rover ever sent to another planet. It carries 10 science instruments with a total mass 15 times as large as the science equipment on the previous Mars rovers, Spirit and Opportunity. It is the first rover to carry a laser-firing instrument designed to check the composition of rocks. It is also equipped with a drill and scoop to pick up soil samples that can be analyzed on the spot inside the rover.

Apart from scanning the road for hazards such as potholes and gravel, riders need to be on the lookout for potential hazards in the traffic.
Motorbike Writer reader Moe Adamson approached us with a number of suggestions for traffic situations that could be particularly hazardous to riders.
We have increased his list to 10 and are asking readers to help build a more comprehensive list of potential hazards.
1 Unsecured loads: Riders should be on the lookout for tradie utes with unsecured loads or big items such as ladders that are only held on with occy straps. Under Queensland law, offenders can be fined $243 and lose demerit points if they do not secure their load. The law should be widened to other states!
2 Hi-ace vans with undermount spare wheels: These wheels are not secured by safety chain and can be bumped out.
3 4×4 tailgate mounted spare: These can often fall off and bounce into the path of a following rider.
4 Wobbly hubcaps: Not only are these likely to come adrift, but they are a good indication of the low standard of upkeep by the motorist which could mean a dangerously unroadworthy vehicle.
5 Trailers: Trailer maintenance is often neglected, leading to seized wheel bearings and wobbly wheels which can cause an accident. Again look out for loads not secured properly, boats not tied down and faulty brake and indicator signals.
6 Weaving and slowing cars: Cars that weave around or slow down for no reason are a good indication that the driver is distracted by their mobile phone, infotainment system, kids fighting in the back seat, pets or something else. The driver could also be drunk, under the influence of a drug or tired.
7 Trucks: Not only do motorcycles disappear in the many blind spots around trucks, but you also need to look out for unsecured loads. Who hasn't been sandblasted by debris behind a truck? Sand or grit can blind you if your visor isn't shut. Also, be aware that truck tyres are often retreads and can delaminate, sending dangerous rubber shrapnel flying.
8 Hire vehicles: These are an indication of a tourist driver who could be from overseas and may wander on to the wrong side of the road! They may also be unfamiliar with the area and suddenly make a dangerous turn they almost missed on their satnav.
9 Uber and taxi drivers: The professional standards of taxi drivers has diminished in recent years. Together with the influx of non-professional Uber drivers, they are to be avoided for their erratic driving.
10 Volo and Camry drivers: Ok, we know this is pigeonholing, but there do seem to be particular brands that attract people who are either lulled into a false sense of security by the vehicle's safety features or are simply not interested in driving!
Now add your traffic hazards that riders should be on the lookout for. Put your comments in the section below.
Re Item # 10. Please add in Honda Civic drivers. They have taken over from the Volvo drivers!
Or young P plate drivers (mostly women) who think it is there absolute right to do makeup/ hair/ selfie shots in whatever lane they want. Rear view mirrors are for checking how you look, right?!
LOL Volvo and Camry drivers. This is a common belief and therefore must have elements of truth in it.
Number 10 (Volvos) is out of date. The aged, inattentive/distracted and generally-incompetents who used to favour the ugly but safe Volvos all left the brand about 10 years ago and started buying Subarus (when Volvo was bought by Ford and Volvo's stopped being ugly and boxy) . These days it's "Bloody Subaru Driver"!
Sheep and cattle trucks – a sub category of trucks in general, but with the added "pleasure" of being struck by stinking excrement. And it IS definitely an offence in WA to have an unsecured load – although I don't know what the fine is.
Traffic lights that have just turned green, there's always the chance of a driver who thought he could just get orange/yellow, but has failed misserably.
The tail end of a traffic jam, keep some distance (if you're not allowed to filter) and keep prepared to GTFO incase somebody is distracted by some techno-gizmo.
Cyclists scooters and pedestrians in traffic.
Cyclists and scooter riders tend to pop out of nowhere to filter through traffic without even the slightest thought that they aren't the only bike on the road. Pedestrians can jump out in front of you sometimes deliberately especially if they are drunk either on alcohol drugs or the power of a uniform. I have on several occasions had to avoid an idiot in uniform who has jumped out from behind a vehicle or bush to flag down a vehicle not even looking at what might kill them just like a child chasing a ball.
Trucks with duel wheels leaving construction sites , the road surface near construction sites and barriers near construction sites.
The tyres of trucks can trap a large amount of crap that can fling back at you especially large rocks caught in duels, the road surface can be covered in slippery muck and nails etc.
The barriers can get blown about by the wind or get bumped into your path.

Q: DataGridViewComboBoxColumn DataSource? I'm trying to get something set up in a DataGridView. It seems like this should be pretty straightforward but I'm having trouble. I want to display three columns:

*

*CodeID

*CodeName

*ComboBox with DisplayMember of TypeName, ValueMember of TypeID

I want to be able to select from all possible values of TypeName. Here's my dilemma:
If I load all of this into one DataTable and set the DataGridView as the DataSource, I can display the existing TypeName for that record, but the combo box will not include any other values. If I set the DataSource for the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn to a separate DataTable that includes all possible TypeNames, the existing value is not displayed.
DataGridView is really annoying to work with so either a solution for this or a viable alternative would be appreciated.
Edit: it appears the issue is caused by my wanting to have a separate item for DisplayMember and ValueMember. The following works, if I don't worry about setting the ID as the ValueMember:
var typeColumn = new DataGridViewComboBoxColumn
{
    DataSource = typeList,
    DisplayMember = "Type",
    ValueMember = "Type",
    DataPropertyName = "Type"
}

If I do the following, the right types are selected, but I can't change the selection in the combo box:
var typeColumn = new DataGridViewComboBoxColumn
{
    DataSource = typeList,
    DisplayMember = "Type",
    ValueMember = "TypeID",
    DataPropertyName = "TypeID"
}

If I use the following I get a FormatException error as it's trying to populate:
var typeColumn = new DataGridViewComboBoxColumn
{
    DataSource = typeList,
    DisplayMember = "Type",
    ValueMember = "TypeID",
    DataPropertyName = "Type"
}

edit: typeList is a simple DataTable populated by the following:
SELECT DISTINCT IT.InsuranceTypeID, IT.[Type]
FROM InsuranceType IT
WHERE IT.ClientID = @ClientID
ORDER BY [Type]

A: I had a similar (I think) issue, and the solution for me was to set the DataSource for the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn before setting the DataSource for the DataGridView.
In my case, my DataSources are a List<T> and a BindingList<T> respectively but it should work the same with DataTables:
DataGridViewComboBoxColumn categoryColumn = (DataGridViewComboBoxColumn)_ItemsGrid.Columns["CategoryID"];
categoryColumn.DataSource = categories;

_ItemsGrid.DataSource = items;

A: Ok, I came up with an example ClientInfo and InsuranceDetails that I think might mimic what you are trying to do.  Let me know if these details arent quite right.  This example will populate the DataGridViewComboBox and set the value based on the InsuranceDetails (specifically at: InsurDetailz = all_insurance_types[2])
   public partial class Form1 : Form
   {
      private ClientInfo _myClient;
      private BindingList<InsuranceDetails> all_insurance_types =
         new BindingList<InsuranceDetails>();

      public Form1()
      {
         InitializeComponent();

         DataGridView grid = new DataGridView();
         grid.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
         grid.AutoGenerateColumns = true;

         all_insurance_types.Add(new InsuranceDetails(1, "Health"));
         all_insurance_types.Add(new InsuranceDetails(2, "Home"));
         all_insurance_types.Add(new InsuranceDetails(3, "Life"));

         var col = new DataGridViewComboBoxColumn
         {
            DataSource = all_insurance_types,
            HeaderText = "Insurance Type",
            DataPropertyName = "InsurDetailz",
            DisplayMember = "ItType",
            ValueMember = "Self",
         };

         _myClient = new ClientInfo {
            InsurDetailz = all_insurance_types[2], Name = "Jimbo" };
         grid.Columns.Add(col);
         grid.DataSource = new BindingList<ClientInfo> { _myClient };
         this.Controls.Add(grid);

         this.FormClosing += new FormClosingEventHandler(Form1_FormClosing);
      }

      void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
      {
         // make sure its updated
         InsuranceDetails c = _myClient.InsurDetailz;
         string name = _myClient.Name;
         // Place breakpoint here to see the changes in _myClient
         throw new NotImplementedException();
      }
   }

   class ClientInfo
   {
      public string Name { get; set; }
      public InsuranceDetails InsurDetailz { get; set; }
   }

   class InsuranceDetails
   {
      public int InsuranceTypeID { get; set; }
      public String ItType { get; set; }
      public InsuranceDetails Self { get { return this; } }

      public InsuranceDetails(int typeId, String itType)
      {
         this.InsuranceTypeID = typeId;
         this.ItType = itType;
      }
   }

Illicit Financial Outflows Mounting From South
China, Russia, Mexico, India and Malaysia lead all countries in illicit capital flight
Legitimate outflows have also increased rapidly in recent years as some emerging market economies have promoted and enabled outward foreign direct and portfolio investments
Although quite selective, targeted, edited and carefully managed, last year's Panama Papers highlighted some problems associated with illicit financial flows, such as tax evasion and avoidance. The latest Global Financial Integrity report shows that illicit financial outflows from developing countries, already at alarming levels, continue to grow rapidly.
With international financial liberalization enabling investments abroad, "legitimate outflows" have also been growing rapidly, heightening macro-financial risks to countries. Many of today's financial centers compete intensely to attract customers by offering lower tax rates and banking secrecy, Jomo Kwame Sundaram and Zera Zuryana Idris wrote for IPSNews.
It is generally presumed that IFFs are related to tax evasion and corruption. Such financial flows largely involve financial service providers, law offices and companies with transnational activities, often involving investments in real estate and other assets worth billions. Besides enabling governments and legislation, legal and accounting firms as well as shell companies have been crucial.
The GFI report estimates that developing countries lost somewhere between $620 billion and $970 billion in illicit outflows in 2014. The Washington-based think tank found IFFs from the South to be 4.2-6.6% of total developing country trade for 2014, while inflows were 9.5-17.4%. Total IFFs of all developing countries in 2014 were estimated at $2,010-3,507 billion.
Illicit Financial Flows Growing Rapidly
During 2005-2014, IFFs from the South were 4.6-7.2% of developing countries' total trade, while such inflows were 9.5-16.8%. GFI attributes about 3.3% of IFFs over this period to fraudulent trade misinvoicing or "transfer pricing".
China, Russia, Mexico, India and Malaysia lead all countries in illicit capital flight. Since 2012, emerging and developing countries have lost over a trillion dollars yearly that could be invested productively in industry, agriculture, healthcare, education or infrastructure.
Methodological Doubts
GFI estimates have been criticized, e.g., for making unrealistic assumptions about trade-related transport costs and ignoring other explanations for "errors". For instance, estimated GFI outflows include IFFs and trade misinvoicing estimated from inconsistencies in trade data.
For GFI, "leakages" (errors and omissions) in the balance of payments, or BoP, are a type of IFFs. It assumes that all unreported leakages in inflows and outflows of a country are illicit. While long associated with capital flight, such BoP leakages may include legitimate reporting errors, as the report recognizes. But as such leakages only account for a small fraction of total IFFs estimated by GFI, they are not likely to appreciably affect overall estimates.
IFFs in developing countries may also be due to transnational criminal activities, which GFI estimates globally for 2014 as follows: counterfeiting ($923-1,130 billion), drug trafficking ($426-652 billion), illegal logging, ($52-157 billion), human trafficking ($150.2 billion), illegal mining ($12-48 billion), illegal fishing ($15.5-36.4 billion), illegal wildlife trade ($5-23 billion), crude oil theft ($5.2-11.9 billion), small arms and light weapons trafficking ($1.7-3.5 billion), organ trafficking ($840 million-1.7 billion), trafficking in cultural property ($1.2-1.6 billion), totaling $1.6-2.2 trillion.
"Legitimate outflows" have also increased rapidly in recent years. Besides the decades-old promotion of tax exemption for "free trade" or export-processing zones, some emerging market economies have recently promoted and enabled outward foreign direct and portfolio investments.
Such capital outflows are said to balance portfolio investment inflows increasing foreign ownership of emerging market economies' corporate sectors. But such "balancing" provides no protection in the event of financial panic and a rush to exit. The push for ever greater financial liberalization thus exposes them to greater fragility and vulnerability.
Participating in such a "race to the bottom" by offering tax loopholes typically involves making ever more concessions to the rich and powerful. Rich countries have been quite selective in administering anti-bribery rules, and rarely take effective action, e.g., to prevent anonymous companies being abused, as highlighted by last year's Panama Papers revelations.
International Cooperation Needed
The nature and scale of illicit flows mean that international cooperation is urgently needed. While progress has been slow at the United Nations, the cooperation of the International Monetary Fund and other multilateral institutions will be vital for progress. If not, rich countries will continue to "call the shots" through the OECD "rich country club", which has been dominant on international tax matters.
Peak national authorities should work closely with different bodies like the central bank, tax revenue authorities, customs authorities and police to enhance tax collection, increase government transparency, improve natural resource control by government, and enable public scrutiny of revenues and other public accounts.
Such efforts will require more evidence and modes of investigation, as well as the cooperation of all relevant parties. Ultimately, political will, especially to take on powerful vested interests, will make the difference.
Further international financial integration after the 1997-1998 Asian financial crises and the 2007-2009 global financial crisis has resulted not only in fast growing financial outflows from the South, but also in greater vulnerability to new sources of volatility and instability.

Course Material Provider Rafter Shuts Down
Carl Straumsheim
The course material provider Rafter has shut down, according to a message on the company's website. Rafter spun off from the textbook rental company BookRenter and became an early provider of flat-fee course material services that allowed colleges to include the cost of textbooks in tuition, ensuring access to all students.
"For our small part, we sought ways to make books and other course materials -- which are essential to the learning experience and the ability to earn a college degree -- more affordable and accessible for every student," the company said in the statement. "We worked hard. We dreamed big. And we are eternally grateful for the privilege we were given to learn from and serve this market. In the end, we did not have the time or resources needed to complete what we started."

Q: Error in pars[, nm] : incorrect number of dimensions I am new to coding as well as posting on forum but I will do my best to explain the problem and give enough background so that you're able to help me work through it. I have done a lot of searching for solutions to similar errors but all of the code that produces it and the format of the data behind it are very different.
I am working with biological data that consists of various growth categories but all that I am interested in is length (SCL in my code) and age (Age in my code). I have many lengths and age estimates for each individual through time and I am fitting a linear nlme model to the juvenile ages and a Von Bert curve to the mature ages. My juvenile model works just fine and I extracted h (slope of the line) and t (x intercept). I now need to use those parameters as well as T (known age at maturity) to fit the mature stage. The mature model will estimate K (this is my only unknown). I have included a subset of my data for one individual (ID50). This is information for only the mature years with the h and t from it's juvenile fit appended in the farthest right columns.
Subset of my data:

This is the growth function:
vbBiphasic = function(Age,h,T,t,K) {
                 y=(h/(exp(K)-1))*(1-exp(K*((T+log(1-(exp(K)-1)*(T-t))/K)-Age)))
             }

This is the original growth model that SHOULD have fit:
ID50 refers to my subsetted dataset with only individual 50
VB_mat <- nlme(SCL~vbBiphasic(Age,h,T,t,K),
               data = ID50,
               fixed = list(K~1),
               random = K~1,
               start = list(fixed=c(K~.01))
          )

However this model produces the error:

Error in pars[, nm] : incorrect number of dimensions

Which tells me that it's trying to estimate a different number of parameters than I have (I think). Originally I was fitting it to all mature individuals (bur for the sake of simplification I'm now trying to fit to one). Here are all of my variations to the model code, ALL of them produced the same error:

*

*inputting averaged values of (Age, h, T,t,K) of the whole population
instead of the variables.

*using a subset of 5 individuals and both (Age, h, T,t,K) as well as the averaged values for those individuals for each variable.

*using 5 different individuals separately with both (Age, h, T,t,k) as well as their actual values for those variables (all ran
individually i.e. 10 different strings of code just in case some
worked and others didn't... but none did).

*Telling the model to estimate all parameters, not just K

*eliminating all parameters except K

*Turning all values into vectors (that's what one forum with a similar error said to do)

Most of these were in an effort to change the number of parameters that R thought it needed to estimate, however none have worked for me.

A: I'm no expert on nlme and often have similar problems when fitting models, especially when you cannot use nlsList to get started. My guess is that you have 4 parameters in your function (h, T, t, k), but you are only estimating one of them as both a fixed effect and with a random effect. I believe this then constrains the other parameters to zero which would in effect eliminate them from the model (but you still have them in the model!). Usually you include all the parameters as fixed, and then try to decide how many of them you also want to have a random effect. So I would include all 4 in the fixed argument and the start argument. Since you have 4 parameters, each one has to be either fixed or random, or both - otherwise, how can they be in the model?


Founder and President of The Good, the trusted e-commerce and lead conversion advisory delivering significant online sales. We help brands sell more online, while respecting the customer. Jon has helped brands like Nike, Easton, MasterCraft, Bell Helmets and Klean Kanteen drive sales and ensure proper revenue realization from their e-commerce and lead conversion efforts.
At The Good (thegood.com) we usually start not by looking at data, but rather by talking to the actual users. Funny thing is, they will actually show you exactly where the money is being lost.
Look at where they are deserting on the site, where they get stuck in the conversion process, and where they are frustrated.
You'll also learn through testing that consumers/users have goals. And they are almost never the same goals as the marketing team who put the site together. So go find out what the consumer's goals are (by asking them directly) and then use that to make changes to the site.
After you've done this process, THEN start tracking and reviewing data. Otherwise, you're just looking at data for an unoptimized site... and mostly wasting your resources.
So in short, qualitative and quantitative. You need both, most forget one.


Human lungs in the lab. For the first time, scientists have created human lungs in a lab — an exciting step forward in regenerative medicine, but an advance that likely won't help patients for many years.
The researchers in Galveston, Texas, started with lungs from two children who'd died from trauma, most likely a car accident, Nichols said. Their lungs were too damaged to be used for transplantation, but they did have some healthy tissue.
They took one of the lungs and stripped away nearly everything, leaving a scaffolding of collagen and elastin.
The scientists then took cells from the other lung and put them on the scaffolding. They immersed the structure in a large chamber filled with a liquid "resembling Kool-Aid," Nichols said, which provided nutrients for the cells to grow. After about four weeks, an engineered human lung emerged.
Repeating the process, they created another lung from two other children who'd died.
The lab-made lungs look very much like the real thing, Nichols says, just pinker, softer and less dense.
Nichols said she thinks it will be another 12 years or so until they'll be ready to try using these lungs for transplants.
"My students will be doing the work when I'm old and retired and can't hold a pipette anymore," she said.
Before researchers experiment on humans, they'll try out lab-made lungs on pigs, she said.

Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales—storied lands that have sparked the global imagination through their legends and centuries-old traditions—often seem to be eclipsed by the neighboring England. While there are many similarities between them, each is culturally distinct, with languages, traditions, and identities not shared by the others. But even as Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales each work to safeguard their unique heritages, they have also worked together and with England, despite the often tense relationships between them that have at times made coexistence difficult and independence movements frequent. The histories, peoples, and traditions of these remarkable lands are the subjects of this comprehensive volume.

Jesper Skak Faurschou (voorheen Jesper Lind Faurschou ) (Herning, 1 juli 1983) is een Deense atleet die zijn hele carrière voor de Herning Running Club heeft gelopen.

Faurschou liep op verschillende afstanden binnen de langere afstanden. Zijn primaire disciplines waren 10.000 meter, halve marathon en veldlopen, maar vandaag is hij eerder een  marathonloper, waar hij zich drie jaar achter elkaar heeft weten te kwalificeren voor de Europese kampioenschappen (Barcelona in 2010), Wereldbeker (Daegu 2011) en de Olympische Spelen van 2012 in Londen.

Faurschou heeft een groot aantal Deense kampioenschappen gewonnen op de 5.000 meter, 10.000 meter, 10 km weg, korte cross en halve marathon. Hij is ook de jongste ooit die het wintertoernooi van de Deense atletiekfederatie vier keer op rij won in 2008/2009. Begin 2015 is het totale aantal overwinningen in de wintertoernooien 6 overwinningen en dus een record.

Hij is vaak een vaste waarde in de Deense nationale teams in middellange en lange afstandswedstrijden voor verschillende internationale toernooien, waaronder cross-, baan- en wegraces. Op drie Nordic Championships op 10.000 meter is hij daarmee ook de beste Deen geworden. Sinds 2004 is hij lid van het Deense langlaufteam voor de Noordse kampioenschappen, die elk jaar worden gehouden. Daarnaast is hij sinds 2008 ook deelnemer aan het jaarlijks terugkerende Europees kampioenschap in kruising.

In 2007 slaagde hij voor het eerst in minder dan 30 minuten op een 10.000 meter, na langdurig worstelen met de grens. Hij won het Deense kampioenschap in de tijd van 29.50.19 minuten en kwam daarmee op nummer 42 op de Deense ranglijst aller tijden.

Zijn persoonlijke trainer is de voormalige coach van de middellange- en lange-afstandsnummers Karl Åge Søltoft. Hij werd eerder opgeleid door Thomas Nolan Hansen.

Hij is, naast zijn loopbaan, leraar aan Handelsgymnasiet Ikast-Brande, onderdeel van Herningsolm Business Schools (voorheen Viborg Gymnasium en HF en Vejle Sports After School).

Biografie
Opgegroeid in het Herning- gebied, waar relatief veel belangstelling is voor hardlopen, is hij opgegroeid met goede kansen om zijn talent te ontwikkelen. Hij woont nu in Silkeborg, na een aantal jaren in Aarhus te hebben doorgebracht om aan de City University te studeren. Tegelijkertijd is Aarhus een van de verzamelplaatsen voor atletiek in Denemarken.

Carrière
Op de Deense kampioenschappen veldlopen in 2008, waar voor het eerst in vele jaren korte en lange cross werd gehouden in hetzelfde weekend, wist hij beide titels te winnen. Het was de eerste keer ooit dat hij de koninklijke trofee van de prestigieuze Christian 10 kon opheffen. In hetzelfde jaar zette hij de PR in een solorace voor de Deense kampioenschappen en kwalificeerde hij zich voor de halve wereldbeker marathon in Rio De Janerio.

Vele elite lopers nemen deel aan vele races om prijzen te winnen, hij neemt deel aan zeer weinig en zorgvuldig geselecteerde races. Hij is echter een van de beste Denen voor Etape Bornholm geworden. In zijn debuutjaar in 2006 werd hij nummer twee van de Denen, hij werd alleen overtroffen door Dennis Jensen. In 2007 werd hij de beste Deen voor Etape Bornholm.

Faurschou zette een zeer sterke marathon debuut neer, toen hij op de marathon van Berlijn in 2009 de finish haalde als nummer 15 stak op het moment 2:17.33. Het is de snelste tijd van een Deen sinds 2002. Hij liep de Europese kampioenschappen in Barcelona 2010 op de marathon. Met een persoonlijk record van 2:16.15 uur en een 17e plaats op de London Marathon 2011, verzekerde hij een ticket voor de Wereldbeker in Daegu, Zuid-Korea, waar hij de Wereldbeker marathon voltooide in de tijd van 2:21.15. Vanwege de verre van optimale weersomstandigheden, zou men op dat moment niet zoveel waarde hechten aan zijn 34 plaats op 66 startende deelnemers.

Het persoonlijke record voor de halve marathon werd behaald op het WK op de halve marathonafstand in Kopenhagen in 2014. Tegelijkertijd geeft Faurschou Deens aan de business school in Herning en de middelbare school in Ikast

Q: How to open Blob URL on Chrome iOS I'd like to open Blob object in a browser window.
This code works everywhere but iOS Chrome (and IE of course but I can solve IE). The window is not redirected to the url (which is correct or at least the same as in other browsers). Is there any known workaround for Chrome iOS?
var blob = new window.Blob(['Hello, world!'], {type: 'text/plain;charset=utf-8'});
window.URL = window.URL || window.webkitURL;
var url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
window.location.href = url;

I've tried <a href="{blobUrl}> instead of window.location.href but it doesn't work either.

A: FileReader.readAsBinaryString method has been deprecated.
Bit late, but I had todo something similar using the FileReader.readAsDataURL - which produces a dataUrl. I'm using AngularJS $http service to call the API to create a pdf. Hope this helps, see below:
$http.post('/api/pdf', {id: '123'}, {responseType: 'arraybuffer'})
    .success(function (response) {
        var blob = new Blob([response.data], {type: 'application/pdf'});
        var reader = new FileReader();
        reader.onloadend = function(e) {
             $window.open(reader.result);
        }
        reader.readAsDataURL(blob);
    });

A: FileReader solved my problem.
var reader = new FileReader();
var out = new Blob([this.response], {type: 'application/pdf'});
reader.onload = function(e){
  window.location.href = reader.result;
}
reader.readAsDataURL(out);

A: None of these solutions worked for me on Safari. I had to create a link on the page.
const downloadBlob = (fileName, blob) => {
  const link = document.createElement('a');
  link.href = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
  link.target = '_blank';
  link.download = fileName;
  document.body.appendChild(link);
  link.click();
}

const blob = new Blob([data], { type: 'video/mp4' });
downloadBlob('myfile.mp4', blob)

A: I fixed it by changing content-type from application/json to application/octet-stream. My xlsx file was downloaded as json.
@PostMapping(value = "/export", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM_VALUE)

Public Health makes it official: chikungunya epidemic
Santo Domingo.- The country faces a chikungunya epidemic, Public Health minister Freddy Hidalgo warned Wednesday and demanded that various City councils improve their trash collection to eliminate mosquito breeding sites.
The official said despite that the outbreaks are centered in Nigua and Haina, in southern San Cristóbal province, cases began to be detected in other provinces after Easter Week, "so technically speaking, the country faces an epidemic."
He said it's a new virus against which the Dominican population has no immunity, and it's expected to expand and affect a large number of people, so the best measure are to eliminate deposits of water that breed mosquitoes, the same one that transmits dengue.
Hidalgo said it's important to abide by the recommended measures to halst the spread of the mosquito nationwide.

Join Tom Geller for an in-depth discussion in this video Gathering reference materials, part of Writing Articles.
I talked about the technical tools that will help you write your articles. Now let's move on to reference materials that every writer needs. These exist in both online and paper forms, so you should use whichever you find most convenient. First are the old workhorses: a dictionary, so you can be sure you're using words correctly, and a thesaurus, which gathers together words that have similar meanings. I'll tell you the thesaurus in particular saves me on a daily basis, giving me alternatives when I start using the same word over and over.
Both the dictionary and the thesaurus come built-in on some computers and word processors, and they are available for free on the web as well. The next useful reference tool is a style guide. Strunk & White and the famous AP Style Guide used to be the most popular ones, but nowadays the Chicago Manual of Style is the one that I see used most often. Now, they put out a new edition every few years, so make sure you get the latest one. Also, many publications have their own internal style guides.
If you can get one from your editors, you'll be able to write your article so it'll need less work before getting published. The last thing every writer needs is a collection of tried-and-true research sources, both online and offline. I'll talk more about those in the video on researching your work. But the most important thing about the tools you use is that they become invisible to you, so you can focus on your writing, and the best way to do that, as with so many things in life, is to practice.
So, gather your reference tools early and get to know them well.
