Aussie Rules Football
Top 5 Football Clubs of 2021
Published January 17, 2022 by Sebastian Langer
The end of 2021 signalled the middle part of the 21/22 season for most football leagues around the world. It also signalled the end of what was a topsy turvy and incredibly exciting year for football.
2021 hoisted a host of new football stars into the limelight, really highlighting how many up-and-coming talents the European game currently has to offer.
Names like Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland, Mason Mount, and Vinicius Junior are all household names following the years they each had respectively.
However, 2021 also held many surprises for some of football's biggest institutions with some unexpected names claiming Europe's biggest prizes in the continually changing footballing landscape.
The following clubs excelled in 2021 earning a place on this top 5 list:
This Spanish club was founded in 1942 and had to wait all the way until 2021 to claim its first-ever major honour when it defeated footballing giants Manchester United in the Europa League Final which took place on the 26th of May.
With former Arsenal manager Unai Emery at the helm, the team seems to have found itself in a real groove in 2021 earning a Champions League spot and currently looking strong at the midway point of the La Liga season.
LOSC Lille:
Lille have not experienced the Ligue 1 glory days since Eden Hazard's departure in 2012 which was the last time, they were league champions until 2021.
Usurping obvious favourites and modern footballing powerhouse PSG to the title, the 2021 Ligue 1 champions caused one of footballs biggest upsets last year.
Atletico Madrid:
Atletico Madrid have always been the outsiders in the La Liga two-horse race between Real Madrid and Barcelona, but that should not take away from the class and success which the club has achieved over the past decade.
In 2021 Atletico claimed only their second title since 1995 capping off what was a fantastic year for the club.
Star striker Luis Suarez was signed from rivals Barcelona after being deemed excess to requirements by the Catalan club (who themselves are in serious financial trouble) and was instrumental to Atletico winning the 2021 title.
Manchester City:
Not much needs to be said about the recent success of Manchester City football club. They've undoubtedly usurped Manchester United as the strongest club in the city.
Over the past decade, they've created somewhat of a dynasty that isn't looking to stop winning any time soon.
In 2021 they won yet another Premier League title as well as the League Cup.
Chelsea had a rollercoaster of a 2021, firing club legend Frank Lampard as their manager in January and deciding to hire former Borussia Dortmund and PSG manager Thomas Tuchel to take up the reigns as his successor.
Things were looking bleak for the London based club as they started the year in 9th position when the new manager took over.
They ended the season in 4th as well as winning the biggest prize on offer in European Football – the UEFA Champions League.
They capped the year off by winning the UEFA Super Cup against Villareal.

Q: C# How do I reference a GroupBox using a string? I want to reference a GroupBox name using a string.
My code currently works. I want to change this line of code:
Line1.buttonName.BackgroundImage = CircleColours[i];

Line1 is the GrouBox name.
I'd like to be able to change Line1 to a string. Like this:
string groupBoxName = "Line1";
groupBoxName.buttonName.BackgroundImage = CircleColours[i];

The code doesn't work when I do this though. What do I need to change?

A: What you're currently trying to do won't work because groupBoxName is just a string, and those properties don't exist on a string.
You need to search the collection of controls on the Form.
string groupBoxName = "Line1";
GroupBox groupBox = (GroupBox)Controls[groupBoxName];
groupBox.buttonName.BackgroundImage = CircleColours[i];

If it's buried within child controls, you'll want to use the Find() method instead:
string groupBoxName = "Line1";
GroupBox groupBox = (GroupBox)Controls.Find("groupBoxName", true)[0];
groupBox.buttonName.BackgroundImage = CircleColours[i];

Kemper Site Under Maintenance... 4.0?
Discussion in 'Digital & Modeling Gear' started by acroberts, Apr 19, 2016.
For a brief while last evening, a few files online (4.0 Reference Manual, Morphing Rig Demos and 4.0 Factory Content) all had 4/18 date stamps on them. Things reverted back shortly after, but now it looks like their entire site is in maintenance mode... I predict cool things are afloat.
Verified! I hope you're right .
It's back up now, looks like a significant site redesign. And v4.0.1 Public Beta is available for download.

Effect of cement temperature on the performance of pce powder
The Group of Seven leading economies is discussing imposing a cap on Russian oil prices by imposing restrictions on insurance and shipping, according to people familiar with the matter. The potential mechanism would only allow shipments of Russian crude oil and petroleum pce powder are still very uncertain.
If the compatibility of polycarboxylate superplasticizer and cement is not good, the concrete mixture is prone to some problems, such as segregation, bleeding, greater slump loss, shorter setting time and so on, so that the concrete mixture can not be transported and poured normally. Reduce the strength and durability of concrete.
There are many factors affecting the compatibility of cement and superplasticizer, and the cement storage temperature is a key factor that can not be ignored. If the cement storage temperature is too high during concrete mixing, it will directly affect the physical and mechanical properties of cement.
Effect of cement temperature on the performance of concrete mixture:
When the cement temperature is above 60 ℃, a small amount of water is secreted from the concrete mixture. When the cement temperature is 100 ℃, the aggregate is separated from the paste, and the cohesion of the concrete mixture becomes worse. The reason for this negative effect is that the cement temperature is high, which makes the concrete mixture temperature rise rapidly in a short time. It is easier to stimulate the water-reducing function of polycarboxylic acid high-performance superplasticizer, release more free water wrapped in the mixture particles in the case of high temperature, and make a small amount of water bleeding in the concrete outlet.
Effect of cement temperature on setting time of concrete:
With the decrease of cement temperature, the setting time of concrete is prolonged, and the initial setting time is more obvious than the final setting time. In other words, the higher the cement temperature, the shorter the setting time of concrete. The reasons for the shortening of setting time caused by high temperature cement are as follows: (1) it will increase the temperature of the mixture in a short time and promote the hydration of cement particles; (2) the superplasticizer releases more free water to react with cement particles, thus forming a stable cementitious system in a shorter time.
With the passage of time, the heat contained in cement temperature is easily transferred to the surrounding particles or environment, the temperature of concrete system gradually approaches to the ambient temperature, and the temperature gap of concrete mixed with cement at different temperatures is gradually narrow. as a result, the difference of the final setting time of concrete is relatively reduced.
Effect of cement temperature on slump and air content loss of concrete:
At the same time, the higher the cement temperature is, the greater the slump loss rate is. The difference of slump loss rate under different temperature conditions increases at first and then decreases. Under the condition of the same slump loss rate, the lower the cement temperature is, the longer it takes to reach the slump loss rate, that is to say, the more beneficial to reflect the slump-retaining performance of the superplasticizer. When the cement temperature is high, in order to reduce the slump loss of concrete, it is necessary to put forward higher requirements for the slump retention of superplasticizer.
Summary,
1. For the concrete with the same mix ratio, with the increase of cement temperature, the adaptability of admixture and cement becomes worse. The higher the temperature is, the more water is consumed, and the fluidity of concrete mixture decreases, resulting in the decrease of concrete and workability. It even leads to the separation or bleeding of aggregate and paste.
2. The higher the cement temperature, the worse the adaptability of cement and superplasticizer, the greater the loss rate of slump and air content, and the shorter the setting time of concrete.
3. The effect of the change of cement temperature on the compressive strength of concrete is obvious. with the increase of cement temperature, the compressive strength of low heat cement concrete increases in the early stage (before 7 days), but the compressive strength of 28 days decreases with the increase of temperature.
4. It is suggested that the cement temperature for concrete mixing should not exceed 60 ℃. When it exceeds 60 ℃, the concrete production system should precool the raw materials of the mixing system as far as possible to avoid excessive temperature rise of the whole mixture system due to high cement temperature. and should strengthen the maintenance of the concrete after entering the warehouse to avoid the temperature cracks caused by the early hydration temperature rising too fast.

The Free Trade Agreement between India and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has come into force on.
The UAE is the gateway to the Middle East, North Africa, Central Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa, said Subramaniam, a senior official at India's Ministry of Commerce and Industry. The agreement will help boost bilateral trade in goods from $60 billion a year now to $100 billion a year within five years.
On 18 February 2022, India and the United Arab Emirates signed the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement. With the entry into force of the agreement, 90 percent of Indian goods and 65 percent of UAE goods will enjoy tariff-free market access.
Apart from its FTA with the UAE, India is also pursuing FTAs with Australia, the UK, Canada, Israel, the European Union, and the Gulf Cooperation Council.
Influenced by international situations, the supply and prices of many pce powder are still very uncertain.

Amid the ravages of a century-long war, a young girl finds herself called by saints and angels to lead her battered people to victory against a brutal invading enemy. Was this a divine calling? An ergot-induced hallucination? A convenient origin story to rally the troops?
Her motivations ultimately matter less than her impact on history. Mere years after her revelation, that teenage girl from Domrémy would lead a resistance against the English occupation that would relieve cities, crown a king, and ultimately immortalize her as Joan of Arc – the great French tragic hero of the bloody Hundred Years War.
This was no fairy tale, and there was no happy ending. Joan was ultimately a victim of her success, her piety and her gender when in 1431 her enemies put her on trial attributing her success to witchcraft and conferencing with the devil.
The war itself would last decades after the verdict, but her memory lives on in the French national mythology – and in this volume.
Written by Tyler Button (Bayeux, The Puny Wars) and drawn by Ryan Cody (Doc Unknown) A Flower in a Field of Lions: The Trials of Joan of Arc recounts the extraordinary events of Joan's life through her trial testimony.
Diligently researched.
Fantastically drawn.
You may have heard her story, but you've never seen it like this.

Cigars & Football – A Simple Blend
View posts about:
Posted by Jefferson on 11/19/17 • Categorized as College Football
As we approach the end of the season the inevitable coaching carousal happens. There are few that didn't wait until the end of the season;- Oregon State, Florida, & Tennessee we're looking at you, but it could be anybody but Alabama.. CigarSmokinFootball.com has some Oracle knowledge on the subject….it's called our opinion. Now, without further ado, – and there is no need to sacrifice a bull upon the altar to get the Oracle insight on the future – we give you 'on the road again' – and who would be good candidates for each school.
Oregon State:
Gary Anderson just never fit in and his system did not appeal. Conomikes said the last question you should ask yourself before a hire is, "Do they fit?" No, he never did. Possible hires include :
Les Miles, Former Head Coach LSU- While he was at Louisiana he won one national championship but has been hounded since then that he only won that title because he had Saban's players. With his own players he was able to make it to the National Championship again but got beat by Saban's players. He was a good coach at LSU and any other school would love to have his record, but would the Mad Hatter be a fit in the Northwest? – Good
Ken Niumatalolo, Navy Head Coach- Last year he was in the mix for the California job and he has strong west coast ties, he is from Hawai'i. He wants back on the West Coast but will he be able to perform outside Academy life, like recruiting and different style of offense? He's questionable but still ranked as Better
Alex Grinch, D-Coordinator Washington State – Rising Star in the PAC-12 after taking an undersized defense and making it one of the best in the conference. He fits, but nobody outside Pullman, Washington knows who he is. Oh, and one lonesome cowboy in England. Best
Jim McElwain could never find a quarterback to run his offense;- oh, wait, he had one, but he used Performance Enhancing Drugs. Now he performs for West Virginia. McElwain is also a grouch. Possible Hires:
Scott Frost, Head Coach Central Florida- He has turned around UCF in two years, they are undefeated and going strong, he already has recruiting ties in the state of Florida, but the Gators don't seem too keen on him, and in CSF's opinion, that is Stupid. Good
Dan Mullen, Head Coach Mississippi State – Dan was an assistant in the Glory days of UF and was the QB coach for Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow, he's also done a pretty good job with the Bulldogs. Cons are he is known to be hard to deal with. Also he's already a head coach in the SEC and jumping to another team within the conference is WRONG! But Florida doesn't seem to care. The Florida AD was AD at Mississippi State and doesn't like Mullen. Someone doesn't fit here. – Better
Chip Kelly, ESPN analyst – He did a fabulous job as the Head Coach of Oregon but he left them with NCAA violations that have hurt the team. He was terrible in the Pros but that shouldn't have been a surprise. The Gators appear to betting everything that they will land Kelly, and he just might do wonders with them. Best
Butch Jones was never going to live up to UT's expectations, he spent a career coaching under Brain Kelly, and following him, should have stuck with that.
Kyle Shanahan, Offensive Coordinator Atlanta Falcons – He comes from a coaching pedigree, he appears to have done great in the Pros and is considered an offensive mastermind. But UT tried the coaching pedigree before and it didn't work. Long Shot –Good, probably actually Poor
Mike Norvell, Head Coach Memphis – He has done a great job at Memphis, which, if you know about the school and their past football woes, one can truly appreciate his efforts. He is already established in the state of Tennessee with recruiting ties. This hire would make way too much sense but UT is betting on someone else (in their flawed thinking) – Better
Jon Gruden, ESPN Analyst – Gruden has long been tied with the University and has stated that it would be his dream job. He had success in the NFL taking two teams to the Super Bowl, winning with Tampa Bay. But does that equal success in the college ranks? Also, would it be possible for him to live up to years and years of expectations by the fans? He also seems very comfortable working for ESPN. The Vols are betting everything they have, that this is their man. I'm betting that it ain't gonna happen.- Best
Ole Miss:
The Rebels are hurting, they had a good coach and they were winning, but they aren't even the Rebels anymore, or are they part-time Rebels? I guess you could say that they're floundering. They need to make a good Coaching Hire, it's now or never, so swing for the fences.
Les Miles, Former Head Coach LSU- This move would make sense, he's already coached in the SEC West, and he already knows what the grass at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium tastes like. Plus he already has recruiting ties in the State of Mississippi from his time at LSU. It's just a matter of how high is Ole Miss willing to reach? Good
Mike MacIntyre, Head Coach Colorado- I can hear the Southern voices from here, "What, bring in a West Coaster?" Hold on! From 1999-2002 MacIntyre was an assistant at Ole Miss, coaching receivers and then defensive backs, his dad was a Head Coach at Vanderbilt and he grew up in the South. It's just most of his coaching career has been out west. Also, he has one hellava reputation for building programs into winners. But he can't get them over the hump to Championships. Ole Miss needs to swing hard and hit a home run, this would be a long double, maybe a triple. –Better
Mike Norvell, Head Coach Memphis– For those that are terrible with geography, Memphis is only an hour and 15 minute drive from Oxford, MS, but it can be accomplished in a shorter time;- trust me, I've done it. This move would not require that much of a change for the Norvell family, and he's already established a name for himself in that region, recruiting would be SO much easier for him. But he's only been a head coach for two years. Would that be enough to scare Ole Miss off? – Best
Nebraska: The Cornhuskers rolled the dice with Mike Riley and it has come up craps. At the end of the season it is highly suspected that Riley's time in Lincoln will end. We're going to believe that, so here are some choices.
Bob Stoops, Former Head Coach Oklahoma – Does anyone actually believe he's done coaching? We don't either. No question he was a success at Nebraska's former rival. What he could do with Big Red would be nothing but winning, and it wouldn't take him long to turn them around and make them winners. But he is a huge question mark, nobody knows what he's doing. Good
Scott Frost, Head Coach Central Florida- Everyone that is anyone, believes this is the heir apparent. He's from Nebraska, he played there and won a national championship, isn't this the definition of "Momma Calling"? She might be, but the word is that Frost is very happy at UCF and that he doesn't want to leave the South where it's easier to recruit quality athletes. So this is not a slam dunk sure shot. Better
Craig Bohl, Head Coach Wyoming – This is another Cornhusker Alum, he played there from 77-79, he was a graduate assistant in the early 80's and was Defensive assistant in the late 90's. Then he left and took over North Dakota State who he put on the map. He has a longer and more successful record as a head coach. He knows the area, he's recruited in the area, and he knows the culture from a fan aspect, a player and a coach. He could wreak havoc on all the teams up North. It's not like he hasn't already beaten them when he was at North Dakota, and he's only 59 years old, which is a mere seven years younger that Saban and only 19 years younger than Snyder. Best
Texas A&M:
The Aggies have caused The Daughter enough heartache and it's time for a change. It doesn't matter what happens from now on, the writing is on the wall and Coach Sumlin is on the way out. He just couldn't hang with the rest of the SEC.
Jimbo Fisher, Head Coach Florida State – I would not be the biggest fan of this hire but it appears that A&M is already trying to test these waters. His time at FSU has been mostly a success, he has one National Championship and until this year they've mostly won. BUT he does not come without controversy. The way he handled situations in Tallahassee would not fly very well at College Station or the rest of Texas. Besides that, he's an asshole. – Good
Matt Campbell, Head Coach Iowa State – This guy has spent his entire life above the Mason-Dixon line so for him to be pulled down to Texas might take some doing. But then the culture at A&M is far different then ISU. When he became the head coach of the Cyclones everyone thought well, his career has stalled. Not so, in two years it's amazing what he's done. They have upset two top ten teams and will have a winning record. How long has it been since ISU was looked at as a threat. His attitude and the way he coaches would fit like gloves at A&M. The downside is that he only has two years at a major program. – Better
Dave Clawson, Head Coach Wake Forest – This would be an out of the box hire but it would be a brilliant move. Clawson has yet to be hired at a program where he didn't turn them around and make them into winners. He's won at Richmond, Bowling Green, and Wake Forest. Anyone that can turn Wake Forest around and make them winners should be given a long hard look. A&M is not that far off from challenging for the SEC West Title, he could just be that spark that pushes them over the hump and makes them hardcore winners. – Best
Jeff Long took a long shot when hiring Bret Bielema away from Wisconsin, and it has ultimately cost him his job. Bielema has yet to be fired but that'll more than likely happen at the end of the regular season. (not unless a new AD is already on board)
Blake Anderson- Head Coach Arkansas State – ASU has lately been a farm for coaches to grow into their own. Coach Anderson is no exception. He has actually lasted longer with the Red Wolves than most people thought he would. The last two years were his best with ASU winning everything in their conference. This year has been a bit of let down, but they're still not losing. Arkansas is not that big a state so everywhere that Bielema went, Anderson went, too, and he hasn't done badly with the left-overs from the University of Arkansas recruiting trail. The biggest downside would be that he has spent most of his coaching career with smaller schools except when he was at North Carolina. – Good
Chad Morris, Head Coach SMU- Coach Morris has done an incredible job with the down-trodden Mustangs. He hasn't quite turned them around but just by watching their games it is obvious that this team is far better than they were before the last two years. He appears to be building them the right way, and he better because we know what happens at SMU when they cheat. Most of his coaching career has been in the High School ranks, until 2010, when he made the step up, so he might need some more seasoning and we're not sure he wants to leave the state of Texas. Who can blame him for that? – Better
Bob Stoops, Former Head Coach Oklahoma- something tells me that should Coach Stoops get a chance to coach within the SEC he would take it. He's always talked down about the SEC but his entire career he was dogged by the fact that the SEC was a better conference and that people doubted he could survive the grind. This is why whenever he beat a team from the South, and he did beat several of us, he would make a big deal about it. He would have no problems bringing the Hogs back to life and this just might the ideal situation for him to come back. Besides, Arkansas only borders PART of Oklahoma.– Best
Now this one is tricky, Gus Malzahn entered the season on the hot seat, but the flames appear to have calmed down. Not quite;- the reports are that if he doesn't beat Alabama this year, he's gone. Of course, if he does beat Bama this year, he can stay for another year. So as an Alabama fan I'm going to be optimistic that he loses the Iron Bowl.
Mike Hudspeth, Head Coach of Louisiana-Lafayette- When Coach Hudspeth was the head coach at North Alabama he produced nothing but winners. They made it to the playoffs every year except his first and second year. He didn't win a National Championship there but still did really well. Then he moved to Louisiana-Lafayette where he turned the Cajuns around from the get go, and turning around Cajuns is one heck of a job. They've fallen a bit in the last two years and that's why he's not higher on the list. – Good
Neal Brown, Head Coach Troy – has done an incredible job with Trojans. Whenever they play a team within the higher ranks of Division I, they are always a threat to pull the upset. He spent plenty of time as an assistant at Troy, so he is very comfortable there. This would fit right in with him moving down the road to Auburn. It's less than a two hour drive away from where he lives now. The past years he has been recruiting at smaller schools and getting less ranked players within the state of Alabama and look what he's done! If he's able to recruit in the same areas wearing Auburn gear there is no telling how well he would do. – Better
Brent Venables, Defensive Coordinator Clemson – Everywhere this guy has coached he has been a winner. He started off as a Graduate Assistant at Kansas State, learning under Bill Synder, and if there is a coach to learn from, that's the one! Then he coached Defenses at Oklahoma, where he was very good. Then for a change of scenery, he took the same position at Clemson and now he has a Championship ring, (it was an illegal pick play!). He has been an assistant for the past 21 years and he's only 46 years old. He has been offered head coaching jobs in the past but he appears to be holding out for the right one. This just might be it. – Best
Bonus Pick Butch Jones, Former Head Coach of Tennessee – This would be the best choice for Auburn. He has a proven track record of not being able to handle the pressure of the SEC and he was not able to develop any of the highly recruited talent that came to Tennessee. BUT he can coach these players to become Champions of Life. How can Auburn turn him down? This would be a dream come true for all Alabama fans. – BY FAR THE BEST PICK

Q: How to write routing when resource model name does not match path or controller I've got a model called ImplicitTest. It's called this as having a Ruby object called Test just breaks a lot of things in Rails.
However, I still want to expose it as a RESTful resource as test (e.g. /tests, /test/1/edit and so forth). Furthermore, it would be great to keep the controller as TestsController, although that's less important.
I was doing this by having simple resources :tests line in my routes.rb file, but this fails for the RESTful forms (e.g. <%= form_for @test ... > - this picks up that the @test object is of type ImplciitTest, and tries to lookup implicit_test_path which does not exist.
I tried adding form_for options, but came to the conclusion that to have the form work for both new and edit actions, there was no one single, unified way of asking form_for() to use a different prefix for the path name lookup.
So I've been trying to approach the problem from the routing side. Is there a line I can add to the routes file that will allow me to:

*

*Have a model called ImplicitTest

*Have the path as /test

*Use the <%= form_for @test ... %> tag still

*Keep the controller as TestsController (optional)

I know I am departing the Golden Path to do this, but Rails isn't letting me use Test as a model name, but this is the name users will expect to see in the URL for this resource, so I'm hoping there is are simple routing option(s) that enable this.

A: All you need to do is set the :path option on your route:
resources :implicit_tests, :path => '/test'

You would still use the standard implicit_tests_path helper this way, too, so your code doesn't have to diverge to alter the URL scheme.

A: Whilst looking at coreyward's answer, I stumbled across a shorter, but less intuitive method of getting what I need:
resources :tests, :as => "implicit_tests"
Are these essentially doing the same thing (given the extra :controller switch I added in the comments) ? Or is one preferred ?

Part of the 4-star Ushuaia complex which emerged as a shining star in Ibiza's Playa D'en Bossa resort in 2011, Ushuaia Club offers its dedicated patrons a club experience like no other. With its open air main stage bearing more resemblance to a boutique music festival than a night club, parties at Ushuaia take Ibiza back to its hippy roots, where you can dance under the sun and the stars. Making a name for itself for its incomparable stage production and championing some of the biggest names in music, this summer, enjoy weekly parties hosted by the likes of David Guetta, Hardwell and Avicii to name a few!

Boasting stage production and sound on a scale you cannot begin to imagine, Privilege is something you have to experience to believe. The Main Room is comparable in size to an aircraft hangar and the DJ booth sits in the centre of a swimming pool… if this isn't bizarre enough, imagine the sight of 10,000 clubbers losing themselves to an eclectic mix of house and trance music, housed under a 25ft high glass dome. With headliners Fedde Le Grand, Blasterjaxxx and Deorro set to take the stage by storm at the opening party on 30/05/14, prepare to be blown away by Privilege.
Headliners - Maya Jane Coles, Adam Beyer, Joris Voorn, Scuba & Kölsch.

One of the longest established clubs on the island, Amnesia is home to the iconic 'Cream' franchise which has stamped its mark firmly in Ibizan music culture, blurring the lines between electro house, RnB, funk, trance and drum and bass. With techno royalty Maya Jane Coles at the helm of the 2014 opening party, Amnesia is set to have another season to remember!

Q: Specifying the default template for root route I have an app for posts and tags. At the moment they don't have any relations, just in independent state.
I want specify the default template to be postsList and I had in router.js :
Router.route('/', {name: 'postsList'});

But this screws up the routes for tags, so I changed routes.js to look as:
Router.configure({
    layoutTemplate: 'layout',
    loadingTemplate: 'loading',
    waitOn: function () {
        return Meteor.subscribe('posts');
        return Meteor.subscribe('tags');
    }
});

Router.route('/posts', {name: 'postsList'});

Router.route('/posts/:_id', {
    name: 'postPage',
    waitOn: function () {
        return Meteor.subscribe('comments', this.params._id);
    },
    data: function () {
        return Posts.findOne(this.params._id);
    }
});

Router.route('/posts/:_id/edit', {
    name: 'postEdit',
    data: function () {
        return Posts.findOne(this.params._id);
    }
});

Router.route('/submit', {name: 'postSubmit'});

// Tags Start

Router.route('/tags', {name: 'tagsList'});

Router.route('/tags/submit', {name: 'tagSubmit'});

Router.route('/tags/:_id', {
    name: 'tagPage',
    data: function () {
        return Tags.findOne(this.params._id);
    }
});

Router.route('/tags/:_id/edit', {
    name: 'tagEdit',
    data: function () {
        return Tags.findOne(this.params._id);
    }
});

// Tags End

// Authentication

var requireLogin = function () {
    if (!Meteor.user()) {
        if (Meteor.loggingIn()) {
            this.render(this.loadingTemplate);
        } else {
            this.render('accessDenied');
        }
    } else {
        this.next();
    }
};

Router.onBeforeAction(requireLogin, {only: ['postSubmit', 'tagSubmit']});

As a result, when I access to root route of the app, it gives me error:

Oops, looks like there's no route on the client or the server for url: "http://askar-blog.meteor.com/."

Any solution?
https://github.com/tenzan/blog
If you're familiar with Rails you can do in routes.rb:
root 'posts#index'
resources :posts

A: You can just redirect it to go to the appropriate route.
Router.route('/', function () {
  this.redirect('/posts');
});

Prodigal Son "Fear Response" Review
CultureTVTV Reviews/Recaps
By: Norton
Jessica confronts her serial killer husband!
Congrats! We've reached the critical third episode of Prodigal Son. As I may have mentioned three episodes is generally what I give a new show to see if I want more. Why? Because by episode three most shows have a handle on the direction they want to go and how they want to get there. You've met most, if not all, of the series regulars, some of the reoccurring, and maybe even got a tease towards future additions to the cast. It's a lot of pressure, so how does Prodigal Son hold up? Not bad. And considering it got picked up for a full season, I'm not the only one who thinks so.
"Fear Response" opens up similar to the previous two episodes with a flashback to the night Martin gets arrested, but instead of focusing on Malcolm we pivot to Jessica Whitly. Now we see it's 1998 and Jessica is visiting her newly incarcerated husband. He's fully convinced nothing will change, he'll be out in no time, everything's fine! But she's…well, feeling short-changed. There's some interesting character development trying to happen here – and in a subsequent flashback later in this episode – which culminates in a present time confrontation between Jessica and Martin. See, up until now all we really know about Mommy Dearest is what we glean from those around her. Martin jokes about losing her as a positive, Ainsley feels used by her to spy on Malcolm, and Malcolm seems genuinely distrustful of her. But why? Who is Jessica Whitly?
We'll come back to that, I promise, but first a brief recap of what else is going down in this episode. Our murder victim is a professor George Holston, he's dead in the woods with white eyes, and a missing brain. Malcolm brings lollipops for everyone and as usual the ME is super into him (though he does finally seem to show a little interest in her). Malcolm then gets to geek out as the dead guy leads them to Dr. Elaine Brown (Sakina Jaffrey, I miss Timeless too!) whom he admires. Turns out her specialty is fear and she's been doing some daddy level off-the-reservation experimentation (I say this because Martin even cites her work as inspiration for his own), and it resulted in one of her subjects going clinically insane. This isn't hyperbole (a term mentioned in this episode coincidentally enough), a bad enough LSD trip can actually trigger latent schizophrenia! Our killer – one Dominic Render (Joseph Anthony Sudol) – did try to do the right thing and report Dr. Brown's unethical behavior before settling on dosing his victims with LSD and removing their brains (really not doing the schizophrenic community any favors here), which all leads up to him breaking into the good doctor's house (so hard not to type Doc Brown) to dose and kill her. Luckily, JT and Malcolm are staking out the place, and luckier still, Malcolm decides to go in and ask the shrink about repressed memories. Her suggestion? Take some chloroform! In the meantime, Malcolm will try and subdue Dominic only for it to end with Doc Brown (had to!) shooting him dead (Johnathan Crane – I mean, Dominic, not Malcolm).
Other things of note in this episode include the introduction of Malcolm's shrink – Dr. Gabrielle Le Deux (Charlayne Woodard) – a child psychiatrist he insists on seeing despite being all grown up (can't beat lollipops!). Jessica and Ainsley have it out about Malcolm and Martin – Ainsley angry that her mom never let her get to know her father and made her feel ashamed of who she is, Mom mad that Ainsley didn't tell her Malcolm was seeing the dark patriarch (it's getting pretty sad that whenever Ainsley appears on the show it's NEVER about her, not really). Jessica makes a visit to proxy-dad Gil Arroyo and chides him for reintroducing Malcolm to Martin (with the added twist of it being Jessica who allowed her then 11-year-old son to visit his killer dad in jail). The fact that we don't know what J.T.'s initials stand for! And of course, that cuckoo-bananas opening where Malcolm manages to night-terror his way through a huge window near his bed without a – falling to his death (yay, shackles!) or b – slicing his body open breaking the glass. Not to mention his mom's completely non-plussed reaction to this. Seriously, she threatens a Panera in place of his living quarters if he doesn't give her new keys (apparently, he decided to change the locks after she broke in, surprise).
Now, with those minor details out of the way it's back to chew on the real fat of this episode: Jessica!
During the opening flashback we see a very different Mrs. Whitly than we're use to. The look on Jessica's face is raw, shocked, and confused – once again our subplot ties in with the title (though let's be honest on this show the serial killer stuff is the real sub-plot) – this is her fear response. Clearly, she was expecting some marital difficulties ("Mother taught me that marriage is long, that a woman overlooks things, that she makes sacrifices"), but was serial killing one of them? It's hard to tell. The initial snippet makes it obvious Jessica is disappointed at how things have turned out, but the vague way the conversation goes leaves the question of why? Is she unhappy Martin was sloppy and got caught by their son (bringing shame to a rich family)? Is she upset he wasn't just some regular philandering husband? Later, we see another side of this flashback – a continuation – where Martin is speaking. Earlier, he showed no signs of distress as his position but the threat of losing his family does bring out the fight in him. And the teeth! He agrees that they had a good life, but then goes on to claim that it was because of what he did that she was allowed the best of him ("Men have tendencies. Needs. And I did what I had to in order to meet those needs, to keep me happy and provide you with the life you wanted.").
Martin states that she knew what he was. She tells him she'll never return, but since learning Malcolm is seeing him, she breaks her word and goes to visit him. Martin is weirdly happy to see her (given his numerous off the cuff "take-my-wife-please" jokes about her) even going so far as to flirt with her – to no avail of course. Jessica slips back into her wistful past-self for a minute, once again lamenting the life she thought they had and the one she lost, the one he cost her, but Martin isn't content to let her rewrite history. He doesn't like her saying the kids (read: Malcolm) are messed up solely because of him. She did something too. And that's about the time we cut to Malcolm and his chloroform induced dreams wherein Mommy discovers him rooting around in dad's business to her horror. Why is Jessica so mad? When he mentions a girl all she says is "That doesn't concern you!" and to "Never speak of her again!". But the nail is her saying "You have no idea what your father is capable of!" which heavily suggests she does.
Just how much she knows is a mystery for the next episode!

Household decision making in bushfire self evacuation
This thesis was completed in 2017 and investigated the factors influencing household self-evacuation in two Australian bushfires (Perth Hills 2014 and Adelaide Hills 2015). Dr Strahan's research explored the factors that influenced householders' decisions to evacuate, identified factors that predict self-evacuation and established the characteristics of self-evacuators. His findings showed that environmental and social cues and warnings and householders' perceptions of the threat, of hazard adjustments and of other stakeholders, influenced self-evacuation decision making.
Student researcher
Dr Ken Strahan Research Leader
The Protective Action Decision Model (PADM) provided a conceptual framework for the research. Its theoretical and analytical usefulness in an Australian context, was assessed. A mixed methods research strategy was used involving quantitative telephone surveys of 457 bushfire-affected participants and face-to-face interviews of 109 participants in 59 households.
The study concluded that environmental and social cues and warnings and householders' perceptions of the threat, of hazard adjustments and of other stakeholders, influenced self-evacuation decision-making. Protective action perceptions, particularly the effectiveness of evacuating or not evacuating in protecting personal safety or property, were most important in predicting self-evacuation. Receipt of official warnings and the perception of likely impact of the bushfire on property were also important predictors. Undertaking long-run hazard adjustments, although not predictive of self-evacuation, was pivotal in shaping perceptions of the effectiveness of evacuating and remaining in protecting personal safety and property and indirectly influenced evacuation decisions. Seven archetypes that characterised householders' self-evacuation attitudes and behaviour were identified. These included Threat, and Responsibility Deniers, Dependent, and Considered Evacuators, Community Guided and Experienced Independents all who took different decisional 'rules of thumb' and routes toward evacuating or remaining . The PADM needs to be split into two separate models to incorporate the influence of long-run hazard adjustments on protective action decision-making in an Australian bushfire.
The findings suggest that future research on those who wait and see during a bushfire should take account of their decisional rules of thumb and that design and targeting of Australian bushfire safety policy should better account for self-evacuator characteristics.
Dr Strahan is now leading a CRC commissioned research project funded by the Victorian Safer Together program on the application of self-evacuation archetypes.

Charles Aznavour: A Tribute Concert!
Charles Aznavour: A Tribute Concert
Encore Edition! January 9th at 9:30 PM
The critically acclaimed concert honoring Charles Aznavour returns to Feinstein's/54 Below on Wednesday, January 9th at 9:30 PM with more of Aznavour's signature songs.
Rave reviews for the original concert: "Producer/director/writer/host Scott Siegel created a show of much délice et joie in honoring French singer-songwriter Charles Aznavour…Representative works from Aznavour's vast repertoire of story-songs, notable for their great intensity and passion, were delivered by a talented, hand-picked cast!" – Cabaret Scenes
So much more than a French singing star, Charles Aznavour was the ultimate singer/songwriter who achieved unprecedented world-wide fame. In 1998 he was named Entertainer of the Century by CNN. He was recognized as the century's most outstanding performer, edging out Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan.
In a career spanning over 70 years, he recorded more than 1,200 songs interpreted in eight languages. He wrote or co-wrote more than 1,000 songs for himself and others. Most impressive of all, he sold more than 180 million records during his lifetime.
In our concert tribute to the great Charles Aznavour, we will present his most famous songs, among them (of course), "Yesterday, When I Was Young," "She," "To Die of Love," "Take Me Along," "Ave Maria," "The Sound of Your Name," No, I Could Never Forget," and many more!
NYC impresario Scott Siegel will write, direct, and host the concert. (For Aznavour fans, please note that at one of Aznavour's Carnegie Hall concerts, Scott fought off hordes of other husbands and retrieved the white handkerchief Aznavour traditionally drops at the end of"La Boheme" and gave it to his wife, Barbara, who has been a lifelong Aznavour fan.)
We invite you to come to our special concert event to honor, commemorate, and enjoy the brilliant and enduring work of Charles Aznavour!

There are many reasons to seek out a coach.
It doesn't have to mean something is wrong – perhaps you simply know you can be better.
One of the truly great things about what I do is that the outcome – or the goal – looks different for each client. And for some clients, even this may be unclear when we first begin. The best way to help you is to focus on you: what is important to you, what will fulfill you, and what is it you are aiming to achieve. I call this finding your focus.
Once we know this, we can start reaching for your goals.
I tailor a strategy based on your specific needs, circumstances, and goals. I have a range of techniques that I draw on to help you throughout the process but these won't be relevant to everyone in every situation. We all have different goals so it makes sense to adapt the approach to your unique needs.
We can't always articulate or name a problem or feeling. And even if we can, we don't necessarily understand why we feel a certain way.
I have helped people identify and understand all of these feelings. And we've turned those feelings into a focus or a goal.
From "I want to achieve more in my career" we explore "what's holding you back", and then focus on areas to grow and develop.
From "I'm bored and stuck" we work on self-understanding, and then find the clarity to define your goals and next steps.
From "I feel overwhelmed", we examine more than just the need to "simplify my life". Together we'll uncover the habits that allow 'life' to build up and lead to that feeling of being overwhelmed. Perhaps your goal here will simply be to learn to say 'no'.
By helping you understand and then change your mindset and behaviours we can achieve real progress and permanent change.
As a Mind Focus Coach, I work with business owners seeking the courage and confidence to take the next steps and organisations building greater leaders & stronger teams.
Owning and running a business is challenging – and doing it alone presents its own unique hurdles. I work with business owners seeking the confidence and clarity to take the next steps – whether it be for a personal, operational, strategic, or commercial goal. I also know that running a business can be exhausting, and reflecting and reassessing your goals can inject much needed energy and renewed vigour. Or it may help you discover that your goals have changed and that you too, need to make shift or take a new direction.
Starting, running, and selling businesses has been a significant part of my life for over 10 years and I can personally relate to many of the challenges my clients face. You can read more about these experiences in the Focus Blog.
Drawing on skills and experience in the areas of recruitment and selection, performance coaching, team coaching, and leadership development, I will develop a strategy that unlocks the potential of your team and fully extends your own leadership skills.
Strategies can be tailored to your individual requirements and can be delivered as workshops, individual consultations, and team-building exercises.
For more ways I can help, read about How Prism Brain Mapping increased Di Bella Coffee sales in The Focus Blog.
To make a start, simply call or email to make an appointment with me.
There is no charge for your initial consultation as this is your opportunity to get to know me and make sure you are comfortable with your choice of coach. We can meet at my Fortitude Valley office, via Skype, or at your premises.


Kurt Busch was among the pack of drivers who turned laps on Monday during the Rookie Orientation Program at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
On the advice of team-owner Dale Coyne, road-racing specialist Carlos Huertas has adjusted to the idea of left turns only for the 98th edition of the Indianapolis 500 later this month.
To that end, Huertas completed 77 laps around the 2.5-mile Indianapolis Motor Speedway Monday during the annual Rookie Orientation Program. Huertas was joined by fulltime Indy Car Series drivers Jack Hawksworth (Bryan Herta Autosport) and Mikhail Aleshin (Schmidt Peterson Motorsports) along with Martin Plowman (A.J. Foyt Racing) and 2013 Indy Lights champion Sage Karam (Dreyer & Reinbold Kingdom Racing).
Huertas, who ran two seasons in Formula Renault 3.5 before originally testing with IndyCar's Panther Racing, said a decision about competing in the series' other five oval races will be made after the 500.
The ROP is designed to provide first-year competitors an opportunity to get acquainted with their cars and the racetrack through three speed phases set by sanctioning body INDYCAR – 10 laps at 200-205 mph, 15 laps at 205-210 mph and 15 laps at 210-plus mph. Driver stewards also monitored car control, placement and a consistent driving pattern.
Carlos Munoz, now an IndyCar Series regular with Andretti Autosport, capped his 2013 Month of May with a solid, second-place finish in "The Greatest Spectacle in Racing" to veteran Tony Kanaan. Munoz – ike Huertas a native of Bogota, Colombia – was a runaway choice as Rookie of the Year.
"It was actually harder for me to go slower (in Phase 1) because you had to lift, and I don't like to lift," said Aleshin, the 26-year-old native of Moscow who is preparing for his first oval race in the No. 7 SPM Dallara/Honda. "This is so important and it's all set now for working with the car in practice for the Indy 500. This will be the first oval race in my career and how awesome is it that it will be the Indy 500?" Aleshin, who finished 12th in Formula Renault 3.5 for Tech 1 Racing last year, logged 105 laps with a top speed of 219.170 mph.
All but Karam, whose Chevrolet-powered Dallara developed a mechanical issue that prevented the 19-year-old from Nazareth, Pa., from finishing all three phases, completed the program. Per Indianapolis 500 rules, Karam will be allowed to finish the third phase on the first day of practice May 11.
Hawksworth, a 23-year-old native of Bradford, England, completed 52 laps in the No. 98 Dallara/Honda with a top speed of 217.936 mph. Hawksworth scored three wins and finished fourth in Indy Lights points last year for team-owner Sam Schmidt.
"For me, it was massively important to get in the car and dust off the cobwebs and get my feet on the floor," said Plowman, driver of the No. 41 ABC Supply Dallara/Honda."It's been more than three years since I've driven a car in anger on an oval. Even though I've driven pace cars and two-seaters on ovals, it's not the same. It was nice to remember all the experiences I had in Indy Lights and get a solid confident base in the car." Plowman completed 90 laps with a top speed of 217.085 mph.
Meanwhile, 1995 Indy 500 champion Jacques Villeneuve turned 83 refresher laps in the No. 5 Dallara/Honda with a top speed of 217.742 mph. Villeneuve, the popular former CART and Formula One World Driving Champion from Canada, was voted Indy 500 Rookie of the Year in 1994 after finishing second to Al Unser Jr.
Additionally, NASCAR Sprint Cup Series regular Kurt Busch, who completed his refresher course on the oval April 29 in an Andretti Autosport entry, recorded 180 laps and went through some rudimentary pit stops with the crew of the No. 26 Dallara/Honda. Busch topped the speed chart at 222.289 mph.
Busch, 35, will attempt to become the fourth driver to attempt "The Double" – competing in the Indianapolis 500 and the 600-mile Cup race at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C., on May 25. Busch won the latter event in 2010. John Andretti, Robby Gordon and Tony Stewart have run both races on the same day with Stewart – co-owner of Busch's No. 41 Chevrolet SS at Stewart-Haas Racing – the first to complete all 1,100 miles in 2001.
Cars and drivers will return to IMS for the opening of Indy 500 practice approximately 18 hours after the checkered flag flies for Saturday's inaugural Grand Prix of Indianapolis on the reconfigured road-course. Indy 500 qualifications are booked for May 17-18.

Previously known as Mission Peace, the International Extremity Project grew out of a 1998 medical mission to Vietnam. Our hearts went out to the dedicated and unselfish efforts of those reaching out to help those in need.
IEP provides support for humanitarian projects and supplies medical assistance to the people of Vietnam through medical missions to Can Tho. Our medical missions correct physical lower-extremity deformities to give a new chance at life to many needy Vietnamese. Our volunteer doctors perform surgeries and provide much-needed modern medical equipment and training in modern western techniques to Vietnamese doctors.
All supplies are donated or purchased from donations. Most of what we don't use in patient procedures, we donate to the hospital to help provide supplies that are harder to obtain in Vietnam. We provide all supplies related to the patient care, including medications, crutches, and splints. We also fund and pay the hospital for services used while there.
As we prepare for each mission, the medical team gathers needed supplies, from big to small. Our wish list of supplies ranges from specialized surgical equipment to items as seemingly simple as sutures, blades, and casting materials.
The IEP team is entirely made up of volunteers. We use our vacation time and are each responsible for covering the costs of airfare, hotel, and in-country travel through donations or our own personal funds. All additional funds go toward supplies, in-country hospital charges.
On the medical side, we have surgeons, nurses, surgical staff, physical and speech therapists, and podiatry residents. On the support side, we're a smaller crew, and come from a range of backgrounds. We share a common passion for making a difference in a significant way.

Echoes September CD of the Month: Fernwood's Sangita
http://media.blubrry.com/echoespodcast/p/www.xpn.org/podcasts/echoes/echoes20090902.mp3
Global Americana Chamber Music
You can hear an audio version of this blog, with Fernwood's music, here.
Fernwood is the name of an acoustic band from southern California, but that's about the only geographical data on this group that's easy to nail down. Consisting of multi-instrumentalists, Gayle Ellett and Todd Montgomery, Fernwood's music is an undefinable sound, a kind of Americana world chamber music. Following up their debut, Almeria, Fernwood's new CD, Sangita continues their mix of banjo and bouzouki, sitar and mandolin into a soundscape that's as sweet as a country fiddle tune and as beguiling as a raga.
Gayle Ellett plays pyrotechnic guitar solos with the progressive rock group, Djam Karet, but with Fernwood he's looking for something different.
Gayle Ellett: We're trying to make music that's overtly beautiful and not be afraid of that and make music that doesn't show off our technical skills or how fast we can play. Which is hard to be mature enough to chill out and not turn it into a shredfest and look what I can do.
Todd Montgomery is a scholar of world instruments.
Todd Montgomery @ Echoes Session
Todd Montgomery: Over time I realized I was always learning another cultural style of music and I finally realized doing Fernwood, it wasn't the culture I was interested in. It was the instrument. So that's really the main drive, to blend all these beautiful sounds and have everyone hear them.
Fernwood carve out an Americana world music full of sonic details and plaintive melodies. Indian ambiences, Appalachian picking and an elegant European nostalgia converge on "Cimarron." It's like a Nino Rota score for a Fellini film, played by a bluegrass band.
On both their album covers, Fernwood prints the statement:
All music played by hand, on instruments made out of wood.
Gayle Ellett: Our music just about loving the sound that comes out of the instruments and just trying to serve that, the instrument and the love of the tone. So it is kind of a manifesto.
Fernwood have the antique charm of a gentle but surreal music box cranked in the Ozarks on tines from India. Their new album is Sangita and it's the Echoes CD of the Month for September. I'll be featuring it on Monday's show. This has been an Echo Location.

Love the blog, I've listened to Echoes for years and years. "For headphones only" music is a genre that has died away, it seems.
I still like it!

Exquisite. Gayle Ellet hits it on the nose when he says that Fernwood is not afraid to make music that is "overtly beautiful." Only complaint: you didn't play enough.

Shazam for Seafood Hopes to Catch Fraudulent Fish
Soon you may be able to use a portable scanner to see if you're being swindled.
By Avery Thompson Published: Jun 7, 2016
You may think you know what you're getting when you buy fish, but research shows that a full third of them are mislabeled. That's why scientists in London are developing a device that will scan your fish and tell you exactly what species it is.
The team, comprised of developers Yassine Santissi and Sam Mbale, created an infrared spectrometer to scan a fish at the molecular level, along with software that identifies patterns in the infrared waves that can be used to uniquely identify a fish species. This type of software is also used in the popular music app Shazam, leading the developers to call their product Fishazam, because of course they did.
Mislabeling of fish is a big problem and not just because the result is people paying more for crappy fish. It also makes tracking global fish populations harder because agencies can't rely on sales data to determine whether a certain population is healthy, and it makes it easier to sell poached seafood. As a result, a fish could be threatened or endangered without governments even being aware of the problem.
The developers hope that Fishazam will bring a much-needed tool to a fish market with little accountability. The team is planning to build a database of spectrographic analyses of fish species for use by governments and retailers, and provide a referral service that recommends trustworthy fish markets.
Fishazam is a finalist in the Fishackathon, an event run by the US Department of State that encourages developers to create tools to promote sustainable fishing. The grand prize is $10,000, and the winner will be announced tomorrow.
