Q: Remove duplicates on column based in apache beam java sdk How do I remove multiple occurrences of row based on SessionId in apache beam java skd.
I have tried with Distinct as well as Deduplicate but that takes entire row based and removes.
import org.apache.beam.sdk.io.TextIO;
import org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.Distinct;
import org.apache.beam.sdk.values.PCollection;

public class DistinctExample {

    public static void main(String[] s) {
        Pipeline p = Pipeline.create();
        PCollection<String> input = p.apply(TextIO.read().from("C:\\ApacheBeam\\Beam\\distinct\\user.csv"));
        PCollection<String> unique = input.apply(Distinct.<String>create());
        unique.apply(TextIO.write().to("C:\\ApacheBeam\\Beam\\distinct\\dis_user.csv").withNumShards(1).withSuffix(".csv"));
        p.run();
    }

}

user.csv as below

Expected output
SessionId,UserId,UserName,VideoId,Duration,StartTime,Gender,Phone

1003,3,James,2,1500,2011-12-12T10:00:00Z,M,11111113```

A: By default, Distinct transform uses the whole input element (row) for comparison. So, if you need to filter the duplicates based only on specific column, then you have to use Distinct.withRepresentativeValueFn(SerializableFunction) and provide a function that maps each element to a representative value.

Home » My Blog » Is The Trend Really Your Friend?
By Juan Carr in My Blog on July 18, 2018 .
The conventional technical analysis teaches you that the trend is your friend and that you should never trade against the trend. Continue reading on how this is done.
You should be trading in the direction of the original trend to be successful in the market. And you also know that you should never try to pick up the exact up or down in the market. There are many ways in which you can do trend trading and it is also sometimes easy to understand where the tops and the bottoms of the market are.
It is important that you wait for the trend confirmation when you are trading using technical analysis. So how do you do that? You take three points and draw a trend line or in case you use a moving average than the moving average that slopes towards the upside to confirm the trend.
You could confirm the trendsetting the series of highs and lows but it is important that these methods should be done in the right way else you end up taking high-risk trades. This will cause you to lose more money in the market.
How is the trend in the market formed?
The market trend is formed in patterns which are up and down and it does not move in a straight line. This also at times gets the traders to get caught because too much information makes them miss out on the trade and enter the trade at the wrong time.
When the market is moving in an uptrend then it is okay to buy at the market peak. Also, you do not need to wait for the market to break a new low to take a trade.
When you trade in the market you could also opt for a low-risk move. Here you wait for the market trend move to enter into a quality supply to sell short in the market or you could buy the pullbacks when in the demand level.
The levels, however, should be major levels and not something that the market can break easily. You thus have to anticipate when the market trend could change.
The way to do is to us the multiple timeframe charts to spot the next major demand or supply level. So do not wait for lots of confirmation because using too much confirmation only causes you do is miss out on the trades.


"The good thing about music is that when it hits you, you feel no pain". This quote from one of the most iconic musical artists could not be truer especially when it comes to Jazz Music. Regarded by intellectuals as one of America's original art forms, Jazz has spread from its birthplace in New Orleans to enchant people's hearts and minds in major cities all over the world.
Brisbane is one such a city where this genre is followed with such a zeal you would be convinced it is a religion. Fans flock to sold out events where gifted artists grace the stage with thrilling performances of divergent Jazz fusions. Entertainment agencies such as Black Tie Group Entertainment Agency, work tirelessly throughout the year collaborating with various artists and bands in organizing Jazz events. Whether for corporate events, weddings or just private parties, these agencies work to find the right band to grace the occasion.
Below is a list of four, among the vast list of bands in Brisbane, that are worth their mettle.
Comprised of award-winning vocalist Kristin Berardi and acclaimed bassist Sam Anning, this obsessive duo joins forces to deliver Brisbane regulars an inspiring performance, exposing their shrewd skills, enticing improvisations, and beautiful original creations.
Kristin Berardi is an international and national award-winning musical performer and recording artist. Among her accolades is the much coveted Bell Award, which she has won three times in two categories. These are; National Freedman Fellowship for Jazz and Best Vocal Album of the year. Her partner, Sam Anning, is an Australian artist from Melbourne. He is constantly on the road, inspiring audiences alongside his national and international colleagues who hold him in high regard.
This group has performed for innumerable functions that range from weddings to high profile events with the most notable being at a function for the former prime minister of Australia. Returning from a two years residency in Japan, Ambient Jazz has reinvented their sound in a fusion of new ideas into old classics. Interestingly, Ambient Jazz is available as a duo, trio or quartet to fit on any occasion. Irrespective of the option, this stellar band's performance of different collections is always captivating.
Inspired by the very best of classical, jazz and contemporary collection, Kathy Sander on Piano and Bryan Pearson on Acoustic or Electric Bass, produce the decisive ambiance for your select occasion. Highly experienced in the commercial music scene, both in Brisbane and overseas, Kathy and Bryan are skillful in many genres, covering different styles of Jazz, Latin and many other styles of music.
Being agile in their style, Amica can perform quality background and cocktail music that fits corporate events and private functions, and also able to perform danceable music with vocals. Even though they perform in most cases as a duo, Amica can expand to include either a drummer/percussionist, guitarist or saxophonist.
Whenever you are in Brisbane, check out these bands. Better yet, hire them via the readily available agencies for your esteemed occasion. You'll be in for quite a treat from their mastery.
I listen to and write about music!


In her contributions to this series, Professor Jane Ginsburg has explored the termination-of-transfer provisions in American copyright law. The author's power to reclaim her copyright 35 years after she agreed to its transfer is an extraordinary aspect of copyright – in what other kinds of property law can the original owner take back whatever property she contractually agreed to give up decades earlier? To many of us, termination of transfer is one of the ways that copyright law is "pro" the "little guy" – the individual writer, artist, photographer, or filmmaker.
Yet one cannot say with a straight face that copyright favors the "little guy" without discussing one of American copyright's most debated and misunderstood doctrines: the work-for-hire doctrine.
To people who care about authors and their rights – Roberta Rosenthal Kwall and Mark Helprin being two eloquent examples – the work-for-hire doctrine is a problem, a regrettable anomaly, an affront to creative people. It certainly looks like a fairly naked grab by employers and other capitalists – writing the statute to declare themselves to be the "authors" of creative works for purposes of the law.
By declaring that the employer is the statutory "author," the work-for-hire doctrine may seem to violate the constitutional requirement that copyrights be given to authors. When the employer is a corporation – itself only a "person" by way of legal fiction – the employer is definitely not the person(s) closest to the actual creative process. To give you an extreme example, imagine that Congress amended the Copyright Act to say that statutory "authors" henceforth always be the mother-in-law or the nearest neighbor of the actual creator of a work – that would almost certainly be unconstitutional.
Similarly, in the 1980 Cliff May v. Morganelli-Heumann decision,5 the court concluded that the work-for-hire doctrine "is based on the presumed mutual intent of the parties, and does not operate as a matter of law,"6 and that it was proper for the trial court to consider extrinsic evidence as to whether the parties had intended to contract out of the presumption.
If all this is correct, the real import of Section 201(b) is that it establishes a presumption of transfer from the employee (or commissioned artist) to the employer, the transfer happening instantly on the work's fixation. On this interpretation, Section 201(b) simply manifests a common thread in American labor law, i.e., that where an employee creates something as part of his duties under his employment, the thing created becomes the property of his employer unless, by appropriate agreement, the employee retains some right in or with respect to the product.
So, if the statute's true effect is to create a presumptive transfer from the true author to the employer, why not say that? Why not say that the actual creator is the "author" and rewrite the Copyright Act to state that, upon creation of a copyrighted work, the employee is presumed to have transferred (immediately and irrevocably) all rights to the employer? Wouldn't that be more honest and avoid the constitutional question?
Although that is a simple solution, the United States could do it other ways. For example, Canada also has a termination-of-transfer provision. In Canada, the heirs of an author can reclaim the copyright 25 years after the author's death, regardless of whatever contractual transfer or assignment the author made. (The same system was UK law until 1952.) Like American law, Canadian copyright law shields what we would call "works-for-hire" from this termination provision. How? By creating a special category of owners called "first owners" and establishing that, in certain circumstances and conditions, the first owner of a work is the employer, even though the "author" is the natural person who was the true creator.
The American approach – declaring employers as "authors" when all it is trying to achieve is that the employer should be the "first owner" – is not just quirky, but it also seems disrespectful toward the natural persons who create literary and artistic works, particularly to legal minds from civil law jurisdictions. Not surprisingly, this has created problems for Europeans trying to understand American copyright law, even though their national laws have their own mechanisms to consolidate copyright rights with employers. That's unfortunate because work-for-hire is only a device for transfer and consolidation of the rights of exploitation that come with copyright. If you don't believe that, look carefully at Section 201(b), which states that the employer "is considered the author for purposes of this title" – language much more circumspect than a straightforward declaratory statement that the employer "is the author for purposes of this title" (emphasis added).
Whether our work-for-hire doctrine affects this transfer of copyright in all the appropriate circumstances, whether it properly recognizes the economic contribution and personal interests of the true authors is a separate question – and one I'll consider in my next contribution to this series. All I am doing here is explaining what the work-for-hire doctrine does, not whether it does it particularly well.

Smokies' seven-run third inning drops Shuckers in series opener
Garrett Cooper extends hitting streak to five with two more hits on Thursday
Nick Ramirez finished Thursday's game, 2-for-4 with a double (M.K. Krebs)
By Biloxi Shuckers | September 4, 2015 12:00 AM
BILOXI, MS - The Biloxi Shuckers suffered their worst defeat in MGM Park's short, 39-game history, falling to the Tennessee Smokies on Thursday night, 11-3, in front of a crowd of 3,114. Biloxi pitching issued 10 walks, including five in a Tennessee, seven-run third inning. With four games remaining, the playoff bound Shuckers are mathematically still in the second half hunt, 2 ½ games back, in fourth place in the South Division standings.
The 11 runs and eight-run margin of defeat was season-highs at MGM Park as well as the four errors and seven run inning in the third.
Biloxi (33-32) grabbed a lead in the second inning with a two-spot. Back-to-back walks to Garrett Cooper (2x3, R, BB) and Tyrone Taylor (0x3, RBI, R, BB) put two on before Nick Ramirez (2x4, 2B) went down on strikes for the first out. A free pass to Parker Berberet (1x3, BB) loaded the bases for Nick Shaw (1x4, 2 RBI), who stroked a two-run single to center to bring in Cooper and Taylor for the 2-0 lead.
Cooper would single in his next at-bat in the third to set a new team record for most consecutive hits with six, and is now 13-for-19(.684), hitting in all five games at the Double-A level with Biloxi.
The advantage would not last long as Hobbs Johnson (7-8) could not find the strike zone for a second consecutive outing. The third inning began with Albert Almora, Jr. grounding out, but a walk to Dan Vogelbach and a single by Wilson Contreras put two on for the Smokies. Johnson struck out Jeimer Candelario for the second out, but walked the next two batters to force in a run and cut the Shuckers' lead to one while ending the night for the 24-year-old.
The lefty labored through 2.2 innings, issuing six walks, surrendering four runs on just two hits while tossing 77 pitches - 35 for strikes.
Drew Gagnon took over for Johnson with the bases loaded and two out, walking the first two batters he faced to erase the Shuckers' lead and put them in a one-run deficit. A wild pitch to Bijan Rademacher allowed Anthony Giansanti to score to put Biloxi down by two. Rademacher then drove a two-run double to right to put Biloxi in a four-run hole. Almora skied one in front of home plate, but Berberet could not handle the popup in fair territory, allowing Rademacher to score from second to complete the seven-run inning.
Taylor put a run on the board for Biloxi in the third with a RBI fielder's choice, scoring Josh Fellhauer (0x4, R, BB), but Tennessee (35-31) responded in the fourth with a RBI double by Bryant Flete to put the Shuckers back down five.
Jed Bradley shut out the Smokies over two innings out of the bullpen, giving up just two hits and striking out three. Martin Viramontes allowed three runs in the ninth on four hits and a walk.
Orlando Arcia (0x3) was ejected in the fourth inning after being called out on strikes, and failed to reach base for the first time in 16 games. Manager Carlos Subero was also ejected in the inning. Tennessee's Stephen Bruno was also ejected in the second inning.
The Shuckers will look to even the series on Friday night at MGM Park. The Southern League's Most Outstanding Pitcher RHP Jorge Lopez (12-5, 2.29) takes the mound for Biloxi, while Tennessee will counter with RHP Pierce Johnson (6-2, 2.15). First pitch is scheduled for 7:10 p.m., with coverage beginning at 6:55 p.m. on 1240-AM WGCM, 1580-AM WPMO and the Biloxi Shuckers Radio Network. Fans can also listen to the game using the TuneIn Radio app or by going to www.biloxishuckers.com.
The final regular season homestand opens at MGM Park runs through Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 7. There will be back-to-back post-game fireworks shows following Saturday and Sunday's games. The 2015 regular season ends on Labor Day, Monday, September 7 with a 1:10 pm matinee.

I own multiple Bachmann locomotives equipped with SoundTraxx. Is there a way to control the volume of the sound, and/or a way to mute it entirely. I have too many sounds running at once and would like to mute some of the locomotives that are not being currently operated. I am using an NCE DCC system.
CV 128 is master volume control. Programming CV 128 = 0 will turn off all sounds so when the locomotive is powered up - no sounds. You will have to program CV 128 to factory default value or the volume you want, to turn on sound. Sound will not automatically start with speed step one.
F8 defaults to sound on when DCC system turned off and back on. Thus locomotive does not power on with sound off.
When the Quiet Mode Timeout Period is set to a non-zero value, sounds become active only when the decoder is addressed. When the locomotive has been stopped and all functions have been turned off, the sound effects will turn off automatically after the timeout period has elapsed as set by CV 113.
Sound Value decoder does not support CV 113 Quiet Mode Timeout Period.
Thank you very much, Hunt.
Cv 128 is very useful to get all of your engines to be at similar overall volumes. The Spectrum 4-4-0 is exceedingly quiet compared to other sound equipped Bachmann steam engines, which need to be turned down to not overwhelm it.
The volume of the steam sounds of both the bachmann soundtraxx and sound value decoders are not realistically balanced with each other. The whistle is by far the loudest sound on a steam locomotive. Before you do anything , turn whistle volume cv 129 up to 255. In descending order, the next loudest is the chuff which should not drown out the whistle. The next would be the bell, which should barely be audible over the chuff at speed. The others are background sounds.
Cv 113, the timeout clock, is wonderful. The omission of it, the headlight dynamo, and the coupler crash from the Sound Value decoder was a very poor decision in my opinion.
Thank you very much, Trainman203. I'm learning a lot here.


I became an owner last October and have regretted every moment. I've tried on several occasions to book vacations but nothing I want is available.
At one point they tried to charge me a cancellation fee even though the place I was trying to get wasn't even available. They take money out of my bank account every month but I've gotten nothing in return.
Their complaint department does not respond. I complained to the Better Business Bureau and noticed they have a rating of "F" I should have checked out the BBB before buying into this scam.
Review #154104 is a subjective opinion of CMay.
Well in order to receive the full benefits of blue green and get MORE out of the system you really have to know your way around it and if you do, its very beneficial. People get taken advantage of when they don't know how to work the system. To learn how to you should always talk to fellow blue green owners with many experiences and needed knowledge.
Lord buttholes is a bluegreen trash dweller. Ignore him or any other Bluegreen minion that tries to make you feel at ease about being cheated and scammed.
That YAHOO group is full of sales people who will sucker you into buying more of nothing.
Beware of the cockroaches at Bluegreen who want nothing more than to cheat you out of your money and laugh about it later over cocktails. That's OK though - Justice is on the way!


how a well balanced leaf spring 2nd gen T/A can perform, here is a video of Travis hartwell's 77 T/A with all bolt on stock appearing suspension, please note some of the cars he out runs!, that orange truck is close to 1/4 million dollar build (as I was told), DSE front to rear best of everything, now I'm not bashing DSE in any way, in fact I would recommend DSE and have so publicly on this board and others many times, this is just to show that the average enthusiast can have as good performance without the cost.
Re: leaf spring performance counts!
Back to the leaf topic though...it is amazing how well the 2nd gen platform can perform with the stuff you've developed over the past 10-15 PTFB years. While most people are probably just wanting to lower their car or rebuilding to restoration spec, in most cases the link and minitub stuff has proven to be almost unnecessary.
don't get me wrong the DSE stuff works but here is the thing most of the other link suspension systems don't work any better they only allow for larger tires to be used, in turn more power so what is lost in the narrow visual picture is that the parts themselves are of no advantage, they only permit the use of tires that can give an advantage, to be fair that Orange Rush C10 can outrun Travis' T/A now, but only because it has 335 BFG Rivals at all four corners, at least 200HP more and I'm sure weighs less too, although Travis has not had a chance to compete against it recently since switching to RE71 tires.
Dave, speaking of leaf springs, I've seen a global west video about their CAT 5 system double-bearing leaf springs that allow the springs to tilt, and the rear to work almost like an independent suspension, where one side can go up while the other side stays down, so the tires stay planted around curves or uneven surfaces. Seems like the ultimate leaf spring. What's your opinion of those, and do you have a similar product? Are there bearings available that can be installed in stock leaf springs to do the same thing? Thanks.
I have a set of those Cat 5 leafs. Haven't gotten them installed yet so I can't tell you about how they feel but you are correct about the pivoting that they allow.
Thanks for that video Dave, that's a testament to what can be done at a fraction of the cost for us shallow pocket individuals.....I'm not a drag strip guy but to get a car out on a road course and pull some lateral G's would be the chit for sure! Something to put on my must do list.
Our Comp leaf springs use a spherical bearing in the front eye, my philosophy is that we can use a slightly lighter rate spring by only using the bearing in the front and with bushings in the rear shackles it provides more lateral support, this way the ride quality is better and it is easier to dampen.
Not to bash GW but this is also the same people that advocated putting Delrin bushings in the front eye of leaf springs and told customers not to use a rear sway bar with those ....well no kidding solid bushings in leaf springs turn the rear axle housing into a VERY BIG sway bar and it is impossible to avoid binding.
Regardless the Cat5 works, I have seen the video, and to say there is no swing is disingenuous, and pushing on it by hand proves nothing, we are talking about moving hundreds of pounds by giving it a push! But when it's down on the ground with a near 2 ton car on it and high lateral loads in the thousands of pounds the leaf springs will swing more than without the rear bearing.
Both system work in function, one is less expensive than the other.
and yes a good leaf spring system will work great, without negatively affecting roll center, rear steer and general rear geometry.
Awesome...love the video...Dave..what size tires does he run on the rear with those leafs? I know he has the 18inch wheels...just wondering when I get the rear setup can I get alittle more tire on my 17's?
In my opinion, I would think 275/40-17 on a 9.5" wide wheel is your best bet. 275 is right at 9.5" wide so it would be squared up with the tread width. 285/40-17 is a good tire size for 17" but the problem is that there's a terrible selection of tires in that size.
Since replacing the springs on mine I've often wondered how the guy in that video is able to tilt his springs so easily! Mine do not do that, afaik the only part of their setup that I don't have is the leaf spring mounts (mine are the oem ones) which shouldn't really prevent that action. I do have spherical bearings in the front spring eyes, but not the rear shackles. The rear shackles have the delalum bushings.
Do you compete in a forms of racing with your car? If I recall, you have composite springs...that is not cheap either.
no racing in organized form. I am wondering if the composite+swivel would work well?
I see there is another company that is doing a composite spring with all the added "tricks" but with no thought or engineering just because more/different must be better.
How are your bearings located (centered) in the leaf eye? What is the estimate life of the bearing-- am I going to have to replace it every 6 months if the car is street driven?
Can your bearing kit be used in unison- front and rear?
we've had good results with the bearings lasting years, this is an item I've been making for over 10 years and I have not had a single one call needing replacement, although they use a Com 12 bearing that is available from any bearing manufacturer/supplier, I'm always in touch with Travis Hartwell (the silver T/A in the video) he built that car 8-9 years ago, we did change to our new leaf springs 4 years ago so the bearings in that car are 4 years old and the car is street and tracked.
our bearings only fit the front eye, the rear leaf spring eye is smaller, I don't really see a need to put it in the rear because it reduces bind so much that you need to go up in spring rate and it causes rough ride if used on the street.
Awesome post. Do you have a part number for the bushings?
They are part of our Comp leaf springs, the bearings alone should not be installed in just any leaf spring.
But if you have adequate leaf springs we can supply you with them.
here is a video that shows how hard our Comp leaf springs and anti Squat brackets will put down the power in this case 900HP, note how the front just lifts and launch as it shifts.
Think ya got the wrong video link Dave, just a smokey burnout on a rev limiter not a hard launch.
I was wondering that too. Most can burn the tires off, not much suspension mods to do that.
I got it right, the smokey burn out is not the focus of posting the video, not any suspension will handle 900 hp, you can see how well it actually hooks on shifts, over powering tires with that much power is easy but keeping it controlled is another and that is with 315 rear tires with not mini tubs.
Now that is more impressive.
@Dave...I see you mention that the anti squat leaf spring brackets provide more tire clearance. Is that inner or outer (fender) tire clearance that gets improved...and how much would you estimate it gains?
Also, I already have your heavy duty leaf spring plates? Can the brackets work in conjunction with those plates?
Improves inboard tire clearance my moving the leaf spring mounting point inboard just a slight amount.
Thanks Jon - that's what I was assuming.
The Anti-Squat brackets will give 1/4-3/8" more clearance between the tire and leaf spring, they also have two mounting holes to raise the front spring eye, yes they work with the leaf spring plate.


In a masterful bit of engineering on Netflix's part, fans are calling for a real version of this documentary. Give the people what they want!
In a continued April Fools' Day prank, People claims that Stamos had a meltdown while at the Netflix offices to film said trailer. According to their article, they've obtained footage (which, to be clear, is nowhere to be found, although we would love to see it) of Stamos "throwing a glass and hurling profanities." Uncle Jesse, we know you would never do anything like that.
If there's one thing this trailer makes clear, it's that Stamos knows exactly what his brand is: hot older man. Watch the full video below.

The hike is absolutely beautiful and very easy going with a very small gradient. Magnus was a great guide for all my tours I booked with him. I booked group tours and ended up being the only tourist and getting private tours each day!! This was my last tour with him, the lake over the ocean is absolutely stunning, like a optical illusion. Magnus is also very friendly and easy to get along with and will easily keep you entertained with which ever topic you want to talk about. I booked three tours with him and ended up learning so much more, then just the Faroe Islands when it comes to the tours but we talked about religion, economics, cuisine, politics and so much more regarding the islands. It was a great trip, highly recommend. There is a beautiful place on the cliff to have lunch and see the calm lake over the roaring ocean.

ASDAN Congratulates a Level Students On Their Results
ASDAN congratulates A-level students on their results
Kath Grant, Director of Education at ASDAN, one of the UK's largest providers of skills-based programmes and qualifications, said:
"We whole heartedly congratulate this year's A-level students on their results. They, and their teachers, will have worked exceptionally hard for the past two years, and their achievements should be commended.
"Many of these students will also have made significant steps in their personal development. Too often these 'soft' skills are not given the recognition they deserve but these are the attributes that make us human. These personal skills enable young people to grow into well rounded and balanced individuals, who will flourish in adulthood and become contributing members of society, as they move on to university, go into employment as school leavers, or follow apprenticeships.
"In particular, I would like to congratulate the students who have achieved in our own qualifications, notably the Level 3 Certificate of Personal Effectiveness (CoPE), which is a substantial commitment and draws together interpersonal, study and life skills.
"We welcome the increased engagement of young women in STEM subjects in Northern Ireland in particular, but we note with concern the decline in entries in subjects that fall outside the EBacc, such as Design and Technology, Art and PE.
"As Britain begins to carve out a new economic future, we will need more and more young people with a combination of academic and skills-based achievements. Our future relies on them."

Sanford Lake is physically located in Birdseye Hollow State Forest (3,446 acres) in the Town of Bath in Steuben County. The lake abuts Kettle Road in the hamlet of Sonora. Just west of this point is a parking area and a trail to the water's edge. However, best access can be had on the west side of Round Lake Road (south of the Hamlet of Sonora and north of the Village of Savona) where there is a gravel road into the forest with a sign. (See photo below.) Follow the gravel road. It divides into a Y shape. Both directions lead to the lake--the left to a gravel boat launch area, the right to the campgrounds and toilets. The Sanford Lake fishery primarily consists of brown bullheads, bluegills, pumpkinseeds, black crappie, and largemouth bass. The boat launch has parking for 5 cars and trailers and has a floating handicap accessible launch available. Canoes, kayaks, and small electric motor only boats allowed. The roads in and around the forest are mostly gravel. They are appropriate for mountain bikes and some hybrid bikes, however, in dry weather, road dust may be a problem. State Route 226, off of which Round Lake Road (paved) runs, is good for touring and has paved shoulders. Mountain biking is also permitted on the multiple use trail through the forest.


Inlaws had a break in, window that was broken to gain access was 12cm x 20cm, police confirmed a childs fingerprints.
All I can say is EISH!!
We have noticed that there is a definite increase in break-ins during the school holidays in Durban. I assume the rest of the country is similar. Every time there has been an attempt at our house it was in the holidays, luckily no attempt so far was ever successful.

Eight White Nights, Aciman Andre
Автор: Aciman Andre
Название: Eight White Nights
Обложка/Формат: Compact Disc
Размер: 17.32 x 17.68 x 4.55 cm
Издательство: TBS/GBS
Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: From `the most exciting new fiction writer of the 21st century` (New York Magazine) comes Eight White Nights, a sparkling and `wonderfully romantic` (The Times) Christmas novel.
Название: Enigma Variations: Stories
Издательство: Holtzbrink(MPS)/MPS
Andr Aciman, hailed as a writer of "fiction at its most supremely interesting" (The New York Review of Books), has written a novel that charts the life of a man named Paul, whose loves remain as consuming and as covetous throughout his adulthood as they were in his adolescence. Whether the setting is southern Italy, where as a boy he has a crush on his parents' cabinetmaker, or a snowbound campus in New England, where his enduring passion for a girl he'll meet again and again over the years is punctuated by anonymous encounters with men; whether he's on a tennis court in Central Park, or on a New York sidewalk in early spring, his attachments are ungraspable, transient, and forever underwritten by raw desire--not for just one person's body but, inevitably, for someone else's as well.
In Enigma Variations, Aciman maps the most inscrutable corners of passion, proving to be an unsparing reader of the human psyche and a master stylist. With language at once lyrical, bare-knuckled, and unabashedly candid, he casts a sensuous, shimmering light over each facet of desire to probe how we ache, want, and waver, and ultimately how we sometimes falter and let go of those who may want to offer only what we crave from them. Ahead of every step Paul takes, his hopes, denials, fears, and regrets are always ready to lay their traps. Yet the dream of love lingers. We may not always know what we want. We may remain enigmas to ourselves and to others. But sooner or later we discover who we've always known we were.

Описание: A LUSHLY ROMANTIC NOVEL FROM THE AUTHOR OF "CALL ME BY YOUR NAME
Eight White Nights" is an unforgettable journey through that enchanted terrain where passion and fear and the sheer craving to ask for love and to show love can forever alter who we are. A man in his late twenties goes to a large Christmas party in Manhattan where a woman introduces herself with three words: "I am Clara." Over the following seven days, they meet every evening at the same cinema. Overwhelmed yet cautious, he treads softly and won't hazard a move. The tension between them builds gradually, marked by ambivalence, hope, and distrust. As André Aciman explores their emotions with uncompromising accuracy and sensuous prose, they move both closer together and farther apart, culminating on New Year's Eve in a final scene charged with magic and the promise of renewal.
"Call Me by Your Name," Aciman's debut novel, established him as one of the finest writers of our time, an expert at the most sultry depictions of longing and desire. As "The Washington Post Book World "wrote, "The beauty of Aciman's writing and the purity of his passions should place this extraordinary first novel within the canon of great romantic love stories for everyone."
Aciman's piercing and romantic new novel is a brilliant performance from a master prose stylist.

A Filipina nurse was feted with an Officer of the British Empire award in Britain's New Year Honours List 2019 for her work in treating the victims of the London Bridge terrorist attack in 2017.
Joy Ongcachuy was recognized alongside 42 others, who were involved in the response to major terror incidents in 2017; along with British divers Richard Stanton and John Volanthen, who were the first to reach the 12 boys and their coach trapped in a Thailand cave complex for 18 days.
Prominent personalities also decorated were knighted author Philip Pullman and literary icon Margaret Atwood, who became a dame.
Ongcachuy was garlanded an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) award, given to those with "major local role in any activity, including people whose work has made them known nationally in their chosen area.
"She works at The Royal London Hospital since 2002 as a scrub nurse. She was promoted as robotic lead nurse in 2017.
On the night of June 3, 2017, when a terrorist plowed into the crowd and stabbed pedestrians on London Bridge, Ongcachuy was among the first responders at the Royal London Hospital.
In her profile posted by national health service trust Barts Health, Joy narrated: "I was working the night shift that night and I heard the anaesthetist's bleep go off.
"We opened an additional six theaters that night and everyone I called dropped everything they were doing to come to the aid of the patients.
She also assisted in tending to the victims of another car-ramming attack a week later at the Finsbury Park in London, where one died and nine were injured.
The Filipina nurse expressed appreciation for her OBE award. "My daughter is so proud of me," she said.
"I am glad I made the UK my home all those years ago―to be welcomed and recognized by Her Majesty is overwhelming, humbling and exciting all at once," she added.
On Friday, British Ambassador to the Philippines Daniel Pruce congratulated the Filipina nurse for her recognition.
"Many congratulations to Joy Ongcachuy for her richly deserved OBE in recognition of her work treating victims of the London Bridge terrorist attack in June 2017," Pruce said on his official Twitter account.
COLUMN-OPINION: OPINION ON PAGE ONE BY FRANCISCO TATAD – I'm a dictator, says DU30– is there any objection?


A collection of timeless must-have pieces with the Hublot insignia, the Classic Fusion now incorporates a black ceramic bracelet. Available in chronograph or three-hand date mode with a matt black or glossy blue dial, this unisex "Art of Fusion" icon has the laid-back style of a perfectly designed classic.
The bracelet plays a major role in the look of a watch and is an essential design element, having perfect integration into the case and the high-tech materials used in the manufacture. Strong but lightweight black ceramic is used to create the case and bracelet in a unique fusion of technology and style that remains the secret of Hublot and its pioneering spirit. Almost 15 years ago, it was one of the first to explore the exceptional properties of this hypoallergenic, imperishable, stainless material and to invent unique applications and processes.
Today, the avant-garde spirit and desire for constant improvement that infuses every Hublot creation is revealed in the form of a new bracelet in ceramic zirconium oxide. Smart, robust, light and comfortable, it blends beautifully with the case, which is also made of high-tech ceramic.
Technically advanced and with a natural look, this bracelet with a secure folding clasp is the perfect addition to the new Classic Fusion models. With its blue sunray or opaque black dial, chronograph or three-hand date functions, available in 45 or 42 mm diameter, the versatile elegance of this iconic collection makes it a contemporary classic.
Emblematic of the first disruptive designs created by Hublot in the 1980s, the Classic Fusion embodies its signature concept – The Art of Fusion – born at a time when the brand was already breaking new ground by combining precious and industrial materials. Each of the six references presented on this new ceramic bracelet are equipped with a mechanical movement with an automatic self-winding frequency of 4 Hz, for an autonomy of 42 hours, with an oscillating weight in skeletonised tungsten visible through the screwed-down sapphire case back.
The new must-have essential for the modern dandy.


"You know, I grew up in a religious family, in a religious community and it just doesn't make sense to me. It just doesn't work for me in the long run. I never wanted to step on anyone else's religion and their beliefs -- that's what's great about our country—until I started seeing it defining policy. Like gay marriage, you have a group of people telling other people how to live their lives, and you can't do that....I just say you have to, you really have to check what country you're living in because the freedom that allows you to practice religion is the same freedom you're stepping on. That's not right. And I want to add that if there was a nation of gay married couples who were telling you you couldn't practice your religion, I'd be speaking up for you too. So, let's stop the nonsense."
The actor has donated $100,000 to the American Foundation for Equal Rights, the newly-formed groups which is funding the Ted Olson and David Boies-led federal challenge to Proposition 8. Watch, AFTER THE JUMP.
This man is soooo dreamy and soooo political. Thanks so much Rod.And yes I agree with Freeleo, he doesn't have to speak out but he does.
I Love Brad Pitt! He's telling the truth!
I knew that man was special. Angie and those kids are lucky.Its a shame now he can't marry her bcoz he's sticking to his promise.U know tht one he made about not getting married until gays can marry?


I have been trying to incorporate more broccoli in my meals. Yes, yes, I have to admit that it isn't a vegetable that makes me go yay. I mean I eat it, but am not excited about it as I am with Cauliflower. That is about to change this year with my challenge to make dishes with said nose wrinkling vegetable, that I will like to eat. Lets see how Okra fares this year.
These balls worked out well to get me to somewhat actually like eating broccoli. Broccoli is roasted to dry out the excess moisture, spices, almond meal, breadcrumbs and chia egg or flax egg are mixed in and rolled up into balls to bake until crisp. The spices get stronger as the baked balls sit and I like the stronger spice flavor. Some vegan cheese in the balls also helps the balls in texture and flavor.
Do you have an unexplained dislike for a certain vegetable or food? How do you get over that dislike?
Kung Pao Cauliflower Make it!
Spicy Crispy Cauliflower with celery ranch.
Balls ready to be baked.
Baked below. Serve with marinara or spicy tomato chutney or over spaghetti as veggie balls, or make a veggie ball sub.
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onions and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
Pulse the broccoli and basil in a food processor until grated. Add to the pan. (2.5 to 3 cups grated). Add a dash of salt, mix and cook for 3 to 4 minutes to dry out the excess moisture. (If the broccoli is dry, cook for only a minute). Take off heat.
Add in the spices, almond meal, breadcrumbs. Mix well. Make the chia seed egg or use 1 flax egg (1 tbsp flax seed meal + 2.5 Tbsp warm water) or egg replacer for 1 egg.
Mix in. Add vegan cheese shreds if using. Add more breadcrumbs if needed.
Shape the mixture into balls. If the balls are too crumbly (depends on the moisture content, size of grated broccoli etc), add another chia egg, or sprinkle some non dairy milk or aquafaba and mix well.
Place on parchment lined baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F / 200ºc.
Bake for a total of 20 to 25 minutes or until crisp and golden on the outside. (Turn the sheet around after 15 minutes, and continue to bake.). you can also sprinkle some cheese shreds on the balls in the last 5 minutes. Serve warm with marinara or over spaghetti or as veggie balls in a sub sandwich.
Use other nuts as walnuts or pumpkin/sunflower seeds(nut-free) instead of almonds. Process into meal and use. Or use more breadcrumbs.
For variation: add a 1/2 to 1 cup cooked mashed chickpeas or other beans for a hearty veggie ball.
Microbeads have finally been banned. These tiny plastic beads in hundreds of products ranging from body scrubs to toothpastes provide an exfoliating sensation for users and are designed to wash down drains. But because they are made of plastic, microbeads do not dissolve and may pose a threat to the environment. In September, a study published in Environmental Science & Technology reported that more than 8 trillion microbeads were entering the country's aquatic habitats daily causing many issues for the aquatic animals. The volume was enough to coat the surface of 300 tennis courts every day.
Ringling is retiring elephants from their shows, but wait, the elephants will head to cancer research and breeding facility and not a sanctuary. Lets get these elephants to a true sanctuary where they can live a somewhat natural life after years of abuse.
These are so freaking delicious! I love how you can use the stalk as well as the florets, too! I hate wasting the stalk, but I don't really like it by itself, so this is great! Thanks for the great recipe!
Thinking these might work well as a finger food option with cocktail sticks in for an upcoming birthday party (will also make my regular Red Lentil and Tomato Pulao from your Indian book). That one is nicknamed 'Laurel Rice' in our house as it's the favourite dish of Laurel, our grandaughter.
totally. You can make them smaller for finger food.
Can you leave the yeast out?
I love this recipe! I put them on top edamame spaghetti with cauliflower Alfredo sauce. Soooo good!
Do you have a recommended recipe for spicy tomato chutney?

It's well built and shows some beautifully precise grind lines! Not razor sharp but sharp enough! Got that "cool factor" without looking martial! Please note: The metal tag on the G10 scale is NOT a liner lock as the description leads to believe!!! The blade is held by a ball detent, ergo, there's no need to actually push that tag to close the knife! The blade does NOT lock!!
Lightweight and pocket size knife. Good quality. Nice look.

I am fascinated that after all of these years that people think that protected accounts and direct messages will keep things confidential.
That assurance ended almost 7 years ago. It seems no matter how well one protects their Twitter accounts, private forums and so forth, there is always going to be someone who gets into the fold either as a mole or for some reason turns into a mole and spreads around certain information to those who are not supposed to see it.
A lot of this has been going on lately and it is amazing what has been sent around the proverbial social media loop.
There are people who think they have built a secure fortress against infiltration and the leakage of information that they would not like getting around.
Unfortunately these people have not learned the lesson I learned years ago. The only one you can trust is the person you see in the mirror.
Those who have not learned that lesson have made things interesting lately. Keep up the good work.

Over many years of growth and acquisitions, MVP Health Care was in need of a solution to eliminate the manual work that came with its reporting processes. With the expert help of Tallan, the health plan went through a BI Rationalization process to consolidate its reporting procedures and automate many manual processes.
MVP Health Care has grown over many years and has acquired several other companies along the way.
As is common at many enterprises, multiple databases, reporting tools and reports now exist and have grown difficult and costly to support for the long-term. Numerous reports were created by the IT department over the years, some no longer in use but still supported.
Also, staff developed informal reporting processes which included a great deal of manual work to enhance the information in order to create their regulatory reports. That valuable time could have been better spent analyzing the data in the final reports to make better business decisions to benefit patient care.
Tallan engaged with MVP Health Care staff to undergo a BI Rationalization process to consolidate and standardize all the formal and informal databases and reporting solutions in use.
The team uncovered many manual steps in the reporting process that could be automated to eliminate unnecessary work. A new consolidated reporting solution was envisioned for a critical set of regulatory reports and eliminate Access databases from the process.
Many existing reports written in Business Objects and Cognos will be transitioned to Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services. In some cases, reports will be retired altogether.
The BI Rationalization roadmap will be used by the not-for-profit health plan team to develop a more streamlined reporting architecture which will consolidate and eliminate redundant reports, tools and databases, while automating many manual processes.

Lost Daughters: Ask an Adoptee: What Should our Daughters' Names be?
I admire these adoptive parents for being so thoughtful and caring in naming their twin daughters. My father was the reason I was given up fo adoption and yet at one time I looked into changing my surname to his. Many people were surprised by this because during my mother's pregnancy he was adamant about not giving me his name. However, in this culture children take their father's names and his name IS mine. It links me to my family line whether he wanted that or not. It makes me feel connected to the people I come from and as in your case there is nothing wrong with the other members of my paternal family. As adults I think we adoptees should be able to use whatever name we are comfortable with.
Kudos to adoptive parents who understand that the child is still connected to his/her biological roots.
"I am taking it back because it is mine. The heritage is mine. His ancestors are my ancestors. My paternal family members are also wonderful people who can't be labeled by the things that he did. I won't deny my rich heritage because of the bad things he has done." This line in your post speaks volumnes to me. by changing your name back you are re-claiming something that should never have been taken from you. Why is it up to the adoptee to re-claim their identity? why is it not up to the adoptive parent to honour that identity. I realize it is common in adoption to change the child's name but I don't feel that it makes it right to do so. Perhaps this is yet another thing that needs to be reformed about adoption, along with the other undesirable adoption practices like sealing the OBC that adoptees are fighting to change.
Amanda, I am in the process of doing the same thing as you -- legally changing my middle to my original maternal/paternal surnames. And like you, it has nothing to do with my adoptive parents. I'm doing it for ME, and for my own reasons.

Q: How to use op/3 inside a file I try to define operator in a file using op/3. Like so
is_in(Thing, Place):-
  location(Thing, Place).

op(35, xfx, is_in).

But when I consult/1 file in repl, I get an exception
No permission to modify static procedure `op/3'

I tried to use dynamic directive, but it results in the same error.
Executing op(35, xfx, is_in). in repl works.

A: The problem is that you are trying to redefine op/3 predicate instead of declaring a new operator.
To declare a new operator when consulting a file you have to add a directive in your program:
:-op(35, xfx, is_in).

Note that the operator will not be available before the directive, so you should add the directive above its usage within the file.

Client is married to a woman of Mexican descent born in the U.S.
These waivers are not easy to win. In order to win these cases we have to prove client's wife would suffer hardship both if she tried to relocate to Mexico with client and also if she remained in the U.S. without client.
Client's wife suffered from chronic pain in her feet and allergies. She was also experiencing depression and anxiety because of the stress of the immigration process.
Client's husband is her main source of support physically, emotionally, and financially and client relies on her husband's continued presence in the U.S. Client also couldn't relocate to Mexico due to country conditions and also because she is responsible for her parents who live in the U.S.
Even though Client has DACA DACA he wanted to pursue an immigration option that would give him lawful permanent residency and eventually U.S. citizenship. This is a wise choice because the future of DACA is uncertain and we've already seen one DACA recipient unlawfully detained. We are happy to give this nice couple stability.

Q: Indexing sql query What would be the best way to index this:
select  bus.business_id, bus.latitude, bus.longitude,
(
    SELECT  sum(checkin_count)
        FROM  yelp.checkin
        WHERE  business_id = chk.business
) AS checkin_count
from  yelp.business bus
order by  bus.business_id
limit  10;

I am trying to index it this way:
 ALTER TABLE yelp.business ADD INDEX latitude_longitude_count_ndex (business_id, latitude, longitude);

but it is taking very long (ie I ran this overnight and it lost connection after about 2 hours).
I am running this in MySQL.

Side question, because this got me into indexing, is there a reason that this code:
select bus.business_id, bus.latitude, bus.longitude, sum(chk.checkin_count ) as checkin_count
from yelp.business bus
inner join yelp.checkin chk
    on bus.business_id=chk.business_id
 group by bus.business_id, bus.latitude, bus.longitude
 order by bus.business_id
 limit 10;

is taking so long to query?
Even if I change the limit to just 1 it takes very long. I eventually stopped it after 4 minutes, but I have a feeling it shouldn't be taking that long.

A: You should set index for columns mentioned in WHERE or JOIN statements. So remove the index you've set and add one for chk.business_id or bus.business_id or both, and see what will be faster.

Wolves know ex-player and in-form Jota's quality
LONDON • Diogo Jota has admitted that Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp's advice was vital in helping him find a way into the Reds' star-studded attack.
The Portuguese forward, who has scored nine goals in 15 games in all competitions since joining Liverpool from Wolverhampton Wanderers in the close season, is set to face his former team for the first time when they visit Anfield today.
"When you reach a new club, having an open mind is key to be able to adapt as quickly as possible," Jota said ahead of the Premier League clash.
"I did that with the help of Jurgen. He's a fantastic manager who took care of me. When I first arrived, he had a meeting with me and he explained how the team works.
"Then it's down to the player to try to learn as fast as you can and to prove to the manager that you can be an important player for him."
The 24-year-old has had an impressive start, overshadowing Liverpool's famed attacking trio of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino. Salah has scored 10 goals in 16 games, while Firmino has two in 16, and Mane five in 15.
Jota is also the only forward who has scored in four of Liverpool's last five league games.
Pundit Owen Hargreaves suggested competition could be brewing between Jota, Salah and Mane.
"If everybody is trying to have a shot when they get the ball – Salah, Jota and Mane – I think you're going to start seeing a slight bit of tension," he said.
The Reds, who already have a lengthy injury list, beat Ajax 1-0 in the Champions League on Tuesday with Andrew Robertson and Jordan Henderson both picking up knocks. But Klopp confirmed that the injuries are not serious and they are in contention to face Wolves.
Meanwhile, Wolverhampton boss Nuno Espirito Santo has lauded Jota for hitting the ground running at Liverpool.
"We are proud and happy Diogo is doing well. He is a fantastic player and a fantastic boy," he said.
"We know his characteristics but we are going to face Liverpool so we have to be aware of their qualities, Diogo plus all the other talented players Liverpool have."
Nuno added that Raul Jimenez is making excellent progress following surgery on a fractured skull but it was too early to set a timeframe for the Mexican striker's return.
Jimenez, 29, was injured after a clash of heads with Arsenal defender David Luiz at the Emirates Stadium last Sunday. He received lengthy treatment on the pitch before being taken off and rushed to hospital and could be discharged as early as this week.

Male volunteers in sport are more likely to hold influential roles.
Sport England has published the latest data from the Active Lives Survey, providing a comprehensive picture of volunteering in sport and activity for the first time. One of the most striking features of the research is a stark gender gap.
Active Lives shows that men are much more likely to volunteer in sport and activity, in contrast to volunteering in general, where men and women volunteer in equal numbers. In sport, male volunteers are also more likely to hold positions of influence as coaches, officials and committee members.
Sports Minister Tracey Crouch said: "This fresh insight into volunteering in sport shows that millions of people are playing vital roles up and down the country supporting the grassroots.
Sport England's Director of Sport, Phil Smith, says: "The contribution of the 6.7 million volunteers to sport is immense. It helps individuals get more active, benefits local communities, and it can do wonders for the volunteers themselves. They are often the inspiration behind the activity. However, this research also tells us that there's a lot to do to make the experience of volunteering in sport more attractive to women, as there's a big gender gap.
People from lower socio-economic backgrounds (NS-SEC 6-8) make up 31% of the population, but only 10% of the volunteers. Disabled people make up 21% of the population but only 11% of volunteers.
The Active Lives survey, which runs 365 days a year, also asks people over 16 across England about their sport and physical activity habits. The figures published today represent the first 18 months of data collected by the new survey, so year on year comparisons are not yet available. The first set of comparable data will be available in March 2018.
The figures show a consistent picture, with 27.1 million (60.6%) people being active, meaning they do 150 minutes or more activity per week and meet the Chief Medical Officer's guidelines. 11.5 million (25.6%) are inactive, meaning they do less than 30 minutes of activity a week. The Active Lives survey also shows that people from lower socio-economic groups are much less likely to be active, which is why Sport England will be targeting investment on those groups under its new strategy, Towards an Active Nation.
