← Congrats Brittney and Aaron! A Glen Manor House Wedding!
Meet Nicole and Jesse a fantastic couple who got married a few weeks ago in Narragansett at the North Beach Club. It was an awesome day for a fall wedding on the beach. These two lovebirds got married with the ocean as the background surrounded by their friends and family. Lots of nieces and nephews that not only looked cute, but were awesomely behaved and ramped up the energy on the dance floor! I had a great time photographing Nicole and Jesse on their big day and wish them the best of luck!!

Q: Pass path to text file in Java jar to a C library? I have a Java jar file that contains a text file. From the Java code within the jar I am using JNA to call functions in a C library. I need to pass a filepath to the text file to one of the C functions, so that the C program can read it.
Since it is the C program and not the Java program that needs to read the file, I can not simply do this:
getClass().getResourceAsStream("MyFile.txt");

The C program is not under my control, and it does not understand a jar:file:// path.
How can this be done? Is the content of the jar automatically extracted somewhere? Do I need to extract it somewhere? How can I do that, when I can not be sure I have writing permissions anywhere?

A: The file is evidently packed in the jar (or class path): that is meant by resource.
If you take the URL:
getClass().getResource("MyFile.txt");

one receives an URL like:
"jar:file://...path-to-jar... .jar! ...package-path-of-class.../MyFile.txt"

The C part has to unzip that entry from the jar (jar is a zip), and then you are done. Mind the "jar:file:/".
If the C part cannot be changed, create a temp file
Path path = Files.createTempFile("temp_", ".txt");
Files.copy(getClass().getResourceAsStream("MyFile.txt", path));

These functions can have additonal Parameters, file attributes.
And pass path.toString().
Delete it as appropriate.

I have been so not into making a blog post today. Then I thought, "Oh, what the hell, it's Wrist to Forehead Sunday, just type something in and hit publish.
"I was wondering what that was all about," he responded with the utmost gravity. That is the kind of cashier I enjoy.
At home again I made a tossed salad, did a load of laundry and a couple of other useful things. Then I took a nap till my husband got home (did I mention I'm still suffering from a cold?). We went for a nice walk. I thought briefly of doing my blog post about the walk, but it was strictly non-memorable (but fun).
Galavant is this awesome series on ABC. It's Monty Python and Mel Brooks meet Glee. That is, a musical set in the middle ages with plenty of contemporary references. The lyrics are clever, the characters are compelling, the plot MAKES YOU KEEP WATCHING. I am in love with it. We DVR it to watch at our leisure, because of my abnormally early bedtime.
Now we are looking at one of our favorite movies, Being Julia, starring Annette Bening, for whom I would change my religion (oh, well, perhaps I would not go that far, but I adore her), Jeremy Irons and Michael Gambon. It is based on Theatre by Somerset Maugham, one of my favorite books. It is a marvelous adaptation. I highly recommend it.
So this is my Wrist to Forehead Sunday. A few chores, a nice walk, and now I'm watching television. I must get back to it, because I just started a baby afghan for a co-worker. I think he will be surprised.

The Weimar Republic Sourcebook / Edition 1 available in Paperback
The Weimar Republic Sourcebook / Edition 1
by Anton Kaes, Martin Jay, Edward DimendbergAnton Kaes
Current price is , Original price is $52.95. You
Drawing from such primary sources as magazines, newspapers, manifestoes, and official documents (many unknown even to specialists and most never before available in English), this book challenges the traditional boundaries between politics, culture, and social life. Its thirty chapters explore Germany's complex relationship to democracy, ideologies of "reactionary modernism," the rise of the "New Woman," Bauhaus architecture, the impact of mass media, the literary life, the tradition of cabaret and urban entertainment, and the situation of Jews, intellectuals, and workers before and during the emergence of fascism.
While devoting much attention to the Republic's varied artistic and intellectual achievements (the Frankfurt School, political theater, twelve-tone music, cultural criticism, photomontage, and urban planning), the book is unique for its inclusion of many lesser-known materials on popular culture, consumerism, body culture, drugs, criminality, and sexuality; it also contains a timetable of major political events, an extensive bibliography, and capsule biographies. This will be a major resource and reference work for students and scholars in history; art; architecture; literature; social and political thought; and cultural, film, German, and women's studies.
Weimar and Now: German Cultural Criticism , #3
Anton Kaes is Professor of German and Director of Film Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He is author most recently of From Hitler to Heimat: The Return of History as Film (1989).

His books include Downcast Eyes: The Denigration of Vision in Twentieth-Century French Thought (California, 1993).

Political Chronology
"The Weimar Republic Sourcebook will almost certainly transform the way the intellectual legacy of the Weimar Republic is thought about and taught in the English-speaking world."
Modernism/modernity
"This is an essential book for anyone teaching a course on the Weimar Republic, and advanced students should be advised to purchase it."
"A mosaic panorama. . . . Interweaving classic texts with a wealth of excavated matter, [the editors] have done a great service to anyone interested in what modernism was and, through reinterpretation, may yet become."
"Unquestionably, The Weimar Republic Sourcebook is a wonderful resource. . . . Courses on German culture could easily be built around the book's chapters. In addition, it should be on the reading list of all prospective anthologists."

Arsenal's Matt Smith joins Doncaster Rovers
Matt Smith has become the latest Arsenal youth player to move on loan to Doncaster Rovers.

Arsenal have confirmed that Matt Smith will spend another year in League One, with the young Arsenal midfielder joining Doncaster Rovers.
Speaking to the official Doncaster Rovers website, Smith said, "I'm buzzing. I'm really looking forward to the season it's my second season now in league one so I know what to expect.
"I worked with the manager at Swindon Town and Doncaster play the right way and a way that suits me as a player, so it was a no-brainer to come here especially in the development of my career.
"Hopefully, now I've come in here we'll push on and do well this season.
"Richie [Wellens] is a top manager and I love working with him. For me personally, he wanted to help me every day to develop and push on. I really enjoyed my time working with him so the decision to come here was an easy one," he added.
"I spoke to Ben Sheaf and Tyreece John-Jules too and they both spoke highly of their time here so that pushed me to come here too.
"I'm really looking forward to the season ahead."
Smith had two loans to the same division last season, playing for Swindon Town until January and then Charlton Athletic for the rest of the season.
Although things started very well with Swindon Town on an individual basis, they struggled as a team and he started to fall out of favour a bit with the new manager. Arsenal recalled and reloaned him, but it was a similar story with Charlton.
After eight appearances from February to mid-March, Smith dropped out of the Charlton squad completely. He played u23 fixtures to get minutes and was clearly no longer in contention for first-team action.
Hence why the 20-year-old is now set for a return to the same division, instead of making a step up.
The good news is that Doncaster Rovers have treated Arsenal loanees well in the last few years. Ben Sheaf joined the club in 2019/20 and made 38 appearances, and Tyreece John-Jules played 21 times last season despite his injury problems.
If Smith gets the same opportunities, this could be a positive year for him.

Restoration: If This Hall Could Talk
Our 2021 Season
We're sharing highlights of the impressive restoration project that have been completee over the last 6 years in Restoration: If this Hall Could Talk.
2015, Stan Hywet raised one million dollars for restoration, part of the Second Century Campaign. In the Manor House, our exhibit will highlight many of projects that have been completed with the funds that were raised. We'll also share the details behind our projects: why we made the decisions we made, what goes into restoring a space back to a specific time period, how we do the research, and how we are intrepreting and not just decorating. It promises to be a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the work of our curatorial team in the Manor House.
We also have new information on the historic gardens that we'll incorporate into new and updated Picturing the Past panels throughout the grounds. For families, we are including a scavenger hunt to enjoy while walking the estate. Our Carriage House Cafe will feature an updated exhibit with general information on the estate and its service buildings.

Please review this information thoroughly and do not hesitate to reach out to us should you have additional questions or concerns. It is our goal to make this process as clear and pain-free as possible for pilots and organizations alike. We will continue adding questions and answers to our website.
What is the AEROBRIDGE Call Sign
The AEROBRIDGE call sign and it's three-letter designator BGE is intended to clearly identify routine relief efforts in disastrous situations and other public service missions conducted by volunteers. The AEROBRIDGE call sign was assigned to the AeroBridge as an organization in 2020 because of the relief efforts in time of emergencies.
What kind of flights can COMPASSION be used on?
AEROBRIDGE and its associated three-letter identifier BGE are to be used to identify aircraft conducting bona fide nonprofit public benefit flying missions. This may include:
transporting individuals for health care, diagnostics, or treatment;
transporting blood, tissues, organs, or medical supplies;
transporting emergency personnel, equipment, and supplies in time of emergency or public need;
performing habitat or environmental survey or other missions in support of environmental objectives;
transporting rescue animals or wild animals needing relocation;
and in general conducting non-profit flying operations serving the public interest, especially those conducted by volunteers.
AEROBRIDGE must not be used for routine personal, business, or commercial flights. AEROBRIDGE must not be used for positioning or ferry flights when during the times of flight an actual public benefit flying mission is not being conducted; EXCEPT that it may be used when there is a demonstrable need for appropriate (but not priority) handling by ATC.
Can the AEROBRIDGE call sign be used outside the United States?
No. Per FAA requirements, the AeroBridge's three-letter ICAO designator BGE must not be used for call signs by third party flights outside of airspace controlled by the United States except for certain BGE flights that operate in other countries that have a use agreement with the AeroBridge and/or the FAA.
Can foreign registered aircraft use the AEROBRIDGE call sign?
No. Per FAA requirements, Aerobridge's three-letter ICAO designator BGE must not be used for flights within the United States of third party foreign registered aircraft.
What is Changing and Why the Change
Over the years, AB was permitted VPOs use of the call sign AEROBRIDGE through a specific filing process whereby a pilot enters the three-letter designator BGE on their flight plan, followed by the last three characters of their tail number. That procedure will no longer by authorized after December 15th, 2019. Pilots wishing to continue fly with AeroBridge must be members of AB authorized groups and they must have unique call sign through AeroBridge.
The change to the AEROBRIDGE call sign process has to do with ADS-B implementation and FAA changes to call sign usage requirements.
Beginning January 1, 2020, ADS-B Out transponders will be required for all aircraft in airspace where transponders are mandatory today. This creates additional considerations for call sign usage.
The FAA issued an advisory circular containing updates to requirements and procedures for the use of aircraft call signs in the national airspace system. The previous method of filing BGE did not meet these criteria. Therefore, new and unique call signs that meet FAA and ICAO requirements will be assigned by AeroBridge to qualifying pilots who need one.
Why should I use the AEROBRIDGE call sign?
The AEROBRIDGE call sign is intended to clearly identify routine ambulatory patient transport and other public service missions conducted by volunteers including: animal transport, environmental flights, disaster response and other non-profit flying that serves the public interest. Using theAEROBRIDGE call sign has many benefits for the pilot, the organizations they fly for, as well as ATC.
AEROBRIDGE allows pilots to clearly identify to ATC as a bona fide public benefit flight.
Gives pilots access to special handling by ATC (better routing, altitude changes, etc.)
Provides a measure of safety and security for passengers who may have special needs due to medical reasons.
Encourages pilots to file a flight plan or use flight following on charitable flights which allows for better tracking and more efficient mission coordination.
Can provide authorization for flight operations during disaster response flights.
Increases the value and awareness of public benefit flying within the aviation community!
How do I use the AEROBRIDGE call sign?
Procedures for use of the AEROBRIDGE call sign may be found here. Please read and follow these instructions carefully.
Do I need to change the Flight ID field every time I fly?
Your assigned BGE call sign should only be used when conducting a bona fide public benefit flight. It should not be used on positioning or ferry flights, except in the rare situation where reaching a pickup or departure location is time critical and you may need ATC assistance, given on a workload permitting basis. Therefore if using a ADS-B transponder you should change the flight ID to match your call sign before a public benefit flight and change it back to your tail number after the public benefit flight is complete.
ACA recommends adding "ensure proper flight ID" to your before takeoff and after landing checklists.
While this seems like additional work, updating the Flight ID is as simple as entering a squawk code on regular transponders. And with some ADS-B units, you may only have to program your unique call sign into the unit once and then you will be able to simply select the proper pre-entered flight ID before flight.
When can I start using my new call sign?
As soon as you receive it! As long as you are following the procedures for use, you may begin using your call sign right away.
Remember: The old method of filing CMF using a portion of the aircraft's tail number is no longer authorized as of December 15th.

Aquinas Schools, also known as Fort Madison Catholic Schools, was a Roman Catholic school in Fort Madison, Iowa.

History

In 1997 it had the following campuses: Happy World Preschool and Aquinas East Elementary School, Aquinas West Middle School, and Aquinas Junior-Senior High School; the high school housed the administrative offices of the system.
It had the same campuses in 2004, before the school's merger, as Aquinas East Primary, Aquinas West Middle, and Aquinas High School, with the headquarters at the high school.

In 2005 Aquinas Schools merged with the Marquette Catholic School System of West Point to form Holy Trinity Catholic Schools. Doris Turner, who began as principal of the Aquinas system circa 2003, became the principal of Holy Trinity after the merger. The Marquette building was chosen for junior high school while the Aquinas building was chosen for senior high school. At the time 131 students were at the secondary level in Aquinas. The merger was due to increasing costs and the declining population of Lee County, the latter of which meant reduced numbers of pupils.

Athletics
The Herald-Whig wrote that "Aquinas and Marquette have been spirited rivals for years."

Assorted Missing Limbs: 4 Inspiring Stories
The 4 people mentioned below have had to overcome more than most in their lives. Yet the way they have succeeded in spite of this is quite remarkable. They've done far more than most people!
The thing that really stands out to me after learning about them is their lack of self pity. None of them are dwelling on the difficulties they face. They have accepted them and just carried on.
Not only that, they are using the difficulties they face as a way to inspire people. So instead of 4 sad stories we have 4 individuals who have probably inspired millions all around the world. I really like that way they have turned it around. So here they are:
Jessica Cox
Jessica can text, play the piano, type 25 words per minute and put her contact lenses in with her feet. She has a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do. Up until the age of 22 she'd never been in a plane due to a fear of flying. She decided to overcome this fear and within a few years she had a pilot's licence. She was born without arms.
Nick struggled with bullying, low self-esteem and depression in his teenage years. He now has a university degree, is president of an international non-profit organisation and in 2005 was nominated for the "Young Australian of the Year" Award. He was born without arms or legs. Warning: this one does contain some pretty cheesy music :)
Brett Eastburn
Brett has played baseball, football and basketball. In the 1988 wrestling competition under the Amater Athletic Union, Brett placed 4th in the US. He is known as "The Stub" because he was born with a right arm stub that goes to just above where an elbow would be, a left arm stub only a couple of inches long, a left leg stub that goes almost to where a knee would be and virtually no leg on his right side.
Tony Christiansen
Tony started racing in a Go Kart his father had built for him at the age of 12 years old. This was the beginning of a life long passion. Like Jessica above he also has a pilot's license and a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do. Unlike Jessica however, he does have arms. But he doesn't have legs. He lost them in a railway accident at the age of 9. He is now aiming to become the world's fastest amputee by setting a world record at Bonneville salt flats in Utah.

Finding the value - students will practice counting groups of objects.
Use of reasoning and proof to verify mathematical ideas.
Numbers can be listed in order and matched to objects to determine how many or total value.
Problem solving is a way of understanding and communicating ideas.
Strategies can be used to solve problems - I can count objects by touching them and saying a number. I need to keep track of where to start and stop and make sure I count all the objects.
Use of representation to understand mathematical ideas.
Focus questions - How do we know how many?
Exploration - Demonstration and questioning.
Invention - Teacher modeling and student demonstration of explanation of solutions.
Bridges - Matching concrete examples (objects of different valued sets) with numerals (orally - saying 1, 2, ..., visually writing or showing a card with numerals 1, 2, ...) by physically putting them side by side or pointing to show one-to-one correspondence.
Discovery, application, extension - Repeated activities with larger number values.
Activity sequence - While these are sequenced as adding structure the order isn't meant to imply that one needs to be mastered before moving to the next. Students can constructing structure for each of these ideas simultaneously.
Make a number roll: A roll of paper with five or ten big dots evenly spaced on it, roll it up. Ask a student to unroll the number roll with you and have them count the numbers as each appears.
Count items hidden from view. Show five hide three ask how many hidden. Or told three in box and two in other box, how many in both boxes.
What is the next number? What was the number before 5…? What is the number after…?
Count using counting-on or count-down.
Point to a numeral and ask what the number is.
Put these cards in order.
Put these plastic numerals in order.
Arrange those cards: Make decks of cards (or hands of cards) with numbers missing from the sequence (3, 4, 7, 9, 11, 13), randomize the deck, pass them out to the students and have students arrange them in order. Have students point to numbers and tell their numeral name. Have a partner point and tell.
Use a non-counting strategy to count. Additive, (construct, combine) subtractive, (destruct, partition) compensation, using a know result, use multiples, five or ten as an anchor, commutative property, inverse property, or a, combination of these.
Roll six dice and arrange them in order without counting, how fast can you do it?
Roll a die and air draw it plane figure 1 – dot, 2- line, 3 – triangle, 4 – square or rectangle, 5 – star (okay it's not a plane figure, but it's more fun air drawing than a pentagon), and 6 a hexagon.
Make number roll. A roll of paper with numbers 1 – 10 (20) on it evenly spaced, roll it up. Ask a student to unroll the number roll with you and have them count the numbers as each appears.
FLASH ten frames with different arrangements in the frames. How many were occupied and how many were not. Fill with different colored counters (five blue on top, two red and three green on bottom) how many…?
Number cover up: Cut a 12x18 piece of construction paper in half length wise and fold one of the pieces in half length wise. Divide it into ten equal rectangles. Inside the folded part with the crease on the top write the numbers 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 one the bottom so that top will fold down and cover the numbers. Cut slits so that a flap can be lifted and the number below can be seen. Use this number teen chart by calling out a number and have students find the number.
Dots in a row: point to a dot in a row, give it a value (23) point to a dot three away and ask what that dot is. Repeat before after, could also do later with skip counting.
Hundred squares or hundred charts Randomize the numbers and pass one to each child. Challenge the students to come one at time and place the numbers in its location on the chart.
Hundred squares or hundred charts Number cover up with a completed 100 chart cover one number and as students what number is covered.
Hundred squares or hundred charts puzzles complete and incomplete with one number to start.
Number roll: A roll of paper with numbers (1 – 100) evenly spaced on it, roll it up. Ask a student to unroll the number roll with you and have them count the numbers as each appears.
Can Use the Hundred squares or hundred charts and the Number roll to do any of the counting, skip counting and point to the numbers. Make screens of different sizes to place to challenge students even more. Point to where the number is screened if a screened number is in the sequence.
(counting in multiples), arrange objects, oral, written, ten strips, number dots, 100 squares, other rectangles and squares, Add cover to get help students remember patterns through visualization or voice pattern or other mnemonic device.
Most ideas from counting can also be used for skip or alternate counting forward and backwards.
Arrange those cards: Make decks of cards for different multiples (2, 4, 6…; 5, 10, 15…; 10 , 20, 30…) Randomize a deck of multiple cards and have students arrange them in order.
Count objects in different groups.
Watch me count… arrange before counting and count by touching, or not touching but pointing, not touching or pointing, arrange in a pattern and count.
Watch me count… arrange in a pattern and count the pattern or skip count.
Watch me count… arrange objects into two rows and count by twos.
Arrange manipulatives with a recognizable pattern one color and rest another pattern. Ask how many in recognizable pattern and see if they will count-on.
Use number strips, ten frames….
Counting backwards is more difficult for children. Use same ideas above. Provide enough thinking time, hints, visual prompts, what ever and patience.
All above only alternate/ take turns… teacher one student two….
All above only up and down….
All above only do backwards.
If I start counting at six and count three, where would I be?
Mark a jar as scoops of rice are added to it.
Do Dot flash or dot plates.
Move them off the grid. Have students stand on a grid. Have them take steps from one square to the next by telling them how many squares to move relative to two points marked at two different points on the grid 3 from the x, 2 from the polka-dot. Until they have all moved off of the grid.
Making equal shares, groups, sets… Have collections in bags, boxes, on cards, or inside loops of yarn… with the number of objects predetermined and a collection of more objects for the students to make a second collection that matches. Use similar objects and use different objects. Challenge them to try and convince the class and themselves that they have equal shares.
Have the same type of activity as above only place two cards or … and one collection of predetermined amount of objects and have students divide it into two equal collections. Challenge them to try and convince the class and themselves that they have equal shares.
Magic Sack: Give each student a magic sack with less than 9 or 10-20 objects depending on the student.
Ask the student to remove the objects and count them.
Have them put the objects in the sack and tell how many objects are in the sack.
Dump them out and count them again.
From sack to number trail: Provide students with a number trail with numbers 0- 9 or 0-20 and have students remove a set of up to 20 objects placing each object beside a number on the trail.
Keeps track of the count and double-check the total as necessary.
Students trade sacks and repeat the procedure.
If students can skip count or count on have students line up the objects on the counting number on the number trail. (If count 12 by 5, 10, 11, 12; then line up five objects on the number trail at the numbers 5 and 10 with one at 11 and one at 12.
Provide students with a problem (insert examples) and score their work with the Cardinality scoring guide.
Need to add more scoring guides with levels for other dimensions or categories like cardinality.


Audi USA's latest advert is a motivational battle cry that promotes simply sacking it all off and quitting your job. The video begins by showing us a young woman being praised in a boardroom by a rather smarmy boss, eventually given employee of the year. Back in her office, she takes a look at her to-do list and realises the whole job things isn't really working out for her. Queue a slow motion walk sequence of her packing her things and exuberantly walking out, decided the best thing to do is wander down the middle of a road while strangers applaud her for her actions. Maybe buy the car first next time?

10 Pensacola entrepreneurs in pilot mentoring program work to overcome pandemic challenges
Madison Arnold
Pensacola News Journal
De Luna Coffee International in Pensacola has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic — sales are down about 70% from last year — but that hasn't stopped the family company from wanted to grow.
Instead, Chief Operating Officer Brett Lemox said it's a good time to capitalize on marketing, especially since people are staying at home and looking at their phones more often.
He's hoping to get more help with that after his company was recently selected for a mentoring pilot program coordinated by The Spring Entrepreneur Hub, a new division of Studer Community Institute.
"I know we're well known throughout the community, but I think there could be some things tweaked, and that's why I'd be curious to hear from the outside what their view of De Luna is and what we can do to better improve our brand awareness," Lemox said. "Everybody's on their phones or on social media so now's kind of the time ... to really kind of start to try to put yourself out there."
Lemox has been working to grow De Luna Coffee since he began working there in 2016, two years after his father, Ed, launched the company with a few wholesale accounts. Today, the roaster still sells mainly wholesale to grocery stores, coffee shops and local restaurants, though Lemox said the family is working toward opening a brick-and-mortar coffee shop.
De Luna Coffee is one of the 10 companies selected for The Spring's new mentoring service pilot program, called Venture Mentoring Service from MIT. A professional from the school was scheduled to travel to Pensacola in April to teach the 24 mentors selected for the program but plans are on hold until travel restrictions due to the pandemic are lifted.
Spring starts:Studer Community Institute launches new division to support entrepreneurs
Help for owners:From sick leave to working remotely, Pensacola experts answer questions from small businesses
Program starts:Pensacola entrepreneurs to get boost from MIT-trained mentors
DC Reeves, chief entrepreneur officer with SCI, said The Spring has matched up the 10 companies with mentors informally to help during a slow economic time until the real pilot program can start.
"What we don't want to do is sit around and have 24 mentors and ... 10 companies and not help each other right now when they probably need it to most," Reeves said. "We just wanted to get out in traffic on this. We did not want to hold back when we felt we could be helpful to companies in our community."
Reeves said he wanted businesses to know even if they weren't selected for the mentorship program that can still reach out to The Spring for help during the coronavirus pandemic.
Right now, the growing companies are facing challenges like navigating staffing and loan and grant programs available to small businesses as well as pivoting to more successful business models, like e-commerce.
"It's not all a bad thing, but it just goes to show you, a lot of the questions have circulated around, 'Hey, I've noticed this negative change in my business based on COVID-19. Look at this positive change. When we get out of this, how do I mutate this business and modify it and pivot and be as successful as I can?'" Reeves said.
The selected businesses and the entrepreneurs behind them are diverse, Reeves said. The companies range from cyber and woodworking to nail supply and a mobile bar.
Snap Soccer, a youth sports company that started as an e-commerce retailer in 2010, is another of the companies selected. It puts on weekend events and also does online marketing for youth soccer clubs.
Right now, the biggest challenge amid the coronavirus for Snap Soccer is planning for expansion in employment when it is time to grow. Beyond that, it's "just not knowing what we don't know," said founder John Guidroz.
"Now post-COVID, (the program) is actually going to be more beneficial to help us navigate new waters," Guidroz said. "Helping us make sure we're finding the right people to make sure that if we do expand, that Pensacola is the right place to grow the business."
Another entrepreneur selected for the program said he felt like he was in a unique position to grow during the coronavirus pandemic. Warfighter Fitness is a digital platform to help those who want to enlist in the military train to meet the physical requirements.
CEO Matt Jeffries holds online meetings with clients to help them gain or lose weight and build muscle. Because of that, he hasn't lost continuity with clients during the coronavirus shutdowns.
The business is about two and a half years old. Right now, it's focused on military recruitment, but Jeffries hopes to grow it and bring his service to civilians well.
"A huge part of what I do is I keep people accountable, right? I've just seen how much of a dramatic change in young people's lives that being held accountable and moving forward on a goal has done for them," Jeffries said. "This is a way for me to hold myself accountable throughout this (mentoring) process."

Yep, the last update of the most popular PC C64 Sid-tracker.
C64 peak tune, the song who inspired a whole generation now remixed and online in 320kbit/s. (Takes 3h to download due to 1k/s dl limit on freewebs). Sidparts remixed by me, hi-fi parts 1+2 taken from Chris Abbott, part 3 taken from Phil Bak.
Hey, I've written a new article. A pack of common words about authorship, privacy and copyrights in tracking. Hope, you'll find it interesting. At least for reading.

Q: Split cells and insert in a new row My data includes headers. In column C, the cells sometimes contain "/" or ",". The goal is to split these cells and insert a new row underneath with every sub-string.
INPUT
OUTPUT
With the code below I have been able to replace all "," with "/". Split the cell in column C by the "/" delimiter and paste underneath. I have not been able to copy and paste the contents of the row underneath with every element in the split function array. It also seems to be pasting the split values beginning in cell C2 every time.
    Sub SuspenseReport()
        Dim SearchCell As Variant
        Dim i As Integer
        Dim cell As Range
        Application.ScreenUpdating = False

        Set Rng = Application.Range("C2:C1000") '*Change Last Row Value Here
        vLr = ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell).Row

        For Each cell In Rng
        cell = Replace(cell, ",", "/")

        If InStr(1, cell, "/") <> 0 Then
        SearchCell = Split(cell, "/")
        For i = 0 To UBound(SearchCell)

        Cells(i + 2, 2).Value = SearchCell(i)
        Next i
        End If

        Next cell

        Application.ScreenUpdating = True
   End Sub

A: When inserting or deleting rows always work from the bottom up. To retain the order of the split value, work from last to first.

Everything Coastal....: Oregon Coast Therapy Animals - My friend Susie!
Oregon Coast Therapy Animals - My friend Susie!
Susie is a Smooth Collie and owns two humans...Michael and Patti Frazier. One of her humans' saw a piece in the local paper, last spring about the Oregon Coast Therapy Animal program. All that was required was a little written test, a performance review and Susie could be registered as an official Pet Partner with the Delta Society and OCTA (Oregon Coast Therapy Animals). Then, she and her humans would be welcome visitors to many places that need that special understanding that only animals can provide.
The written test was a breeze but Patti messed up on the performance evaluation. Susie and the humans had to take the tests again last summer and luckily, they all passed, that time.
Susie likes all people; big, tall, short and small, all animals; feathered, tailed, clawed and beaked and seems to know when they are; scared, sad, mad or freaked. Susie knows who needs a satin glove and she finds a way to show them love. Her gentle patience is what makes her special and she has touched many since she became a Therapy Dog. Susie has visited a homeless shelter and a couple of assisted living homes. She enjoys the people and the attention they give her. The OCTA Society helps many in our coastal community, including the hospital, the jail, they are requested at times for Grand Jury help with children, the library, schools, nursing and assisted living homes, along with homeless shelters and women's shelters.
Now, since Susie is so loving, and loves all living things, this can be an issue for her humans. One day, Patti was calling for her to come in the house from the front yard. Susie, stood still as a statue, nose almost to the ground and ignored Patti. Patti called her again, this time taking a couple steps from the front door to see what Susie was doing. Just as Patti stepped toward Susie, the mole that was to become Susie's new best friend, ran away into the shrubs.
Susie was not happy about the loss of her new friend. Susie has many stories like this one, so Michael wrote and sang a song about her. Hope you enjoy it!
Caron, therapy dogs came to visit us in the hospital and at Ronald McDonald House. They are so helpful for sick children! When you are far away from home, and unable to be with your own pets, therapy dogs can be powerfully good "medicine." Thank you for sharing about this! I hope it inspires others, too.

5 R&B Bangers You Forgot About
By: Joey Crutchley
R&B music has been a prominent and popular musical genre for nearly the past 80 years. Its lyrical themes encapsulate the feeling of struggle and loss as well as the highs and lows of relationships. While the sound is personified through bluesy style harmonies juxtaposed against jazz-like syncopated beats.
Overtime R&B music – like most musical genres – has been seen to adapt and develop; with artists like Ne-Yo, Prince and Beyoncé cementing their place within contemporary R&B music. To me, R&B music has to have soul, it's got to make you feel something! – Whether that's through the vocals or production. With that being said, here are a few of my favourite R&B bangers that you may have forgotten about (unlike me who still sings along to them in my bedroom on a daily basis probably annoying my neighbours)
D'angelo – Brown Sugar
Renowned as being associated for the neo soul movement (a style of music coined in the late 1990's that emerged from soul and contemporary R&B) American singer D'angelo released "Brown Sugar" in 1995 as the lead single from his debut album. The track opens with falsetto ad-libs and a pulsating bass line while D'angelo's soulful and rich tenor describe his admiration of "brown sugar." The track reached the top 25 in both the US and the UK and was nominated for Best R&B song at the 38th Annual Grammys.
Mario – Let Me Love You
American R&B star Mario released "Let Me Love You" as the lead single from his second studio album, "Turning Point" The track was written by Ne-Yo who features on the backing vocals alongside Mario creating a two part harmony and union. It uses smooth and soulful beats accompanied with seductive piano keys and a sincere and soulful vocal delivery from Mario himself. The track held the number 1 spot in the US for nine consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 while in the U.K. it peaked at number 2 and was certified platinum for selling over 600,000 copies.
Elle Varner – Refill
Elle Varner released "Refill" as the second single from her debut album, "Perfectly Imperfect" back in 2012. The track interpolates a rapid-violin arrangement alongside scratchy yet rich vocals from Elle herself accompanied with an 808 drum beat. The contemporary R&B infused song encapsulates that universal feeling of falling for someone. The track debuted at number 78 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop songs and then peaked at number 10.
Tamia – So Into You
Canadian songstress Tamia first broke onto the music scene in 1998 when she was featured on legend producer Quincy Jones' single "You Put A Move On My Heart" Following the success of the song, Tamia released her self-titled debut album "Tamia" in the same year. The second single "So Into You" was released as the second single and is a mid-tempo guitar led track with lyrics describing the protagonist's admiration of her partner. The track peaked at number 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 and received critical acclaim. Rapper Fabolous sampled the track in his song "Into You" in 2003 in which Tamia was credited as a featured artist for singing the hook. Fabolous' version of the song peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Lauryn Hill – Everything Is Everything
Released as the third and final single from the record breaking album, "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" the track, "Everything Is Everything" contains elements of hip-hop, R&B and a 60's soul influence to create a song discussing the injustice and struggle of the youth in America. Lauryn's vocals are delivered in a sensual and soulful manner which enabled Lauryn to garner a Grammy nomination for Best Short Form Music video. The track reached the top 20 in the U.K. and was certified Gold in the US for selling over half a million copies.

Newly-expanded Panama Canal opens
Aerial view of the new Agua Clara Locks on the Atlantic side of the Panama Canal. The new three-step lock system runs parallel to the existing Gatun Locks built in 1914.
The Panama Canal's long-planned expansion is finally complete as of Sunday, June 26.
Overdrive sister site CCJ Editor Jeff Crissey reported on the opening of the expanded Canal in a multipart series – the first part of which can be seen here.
Before the expansion, ship size was limited to 965 feet long and 106 feet wide. Now, the Canal can accommodate ships up to 1,200 feet long and 160 feet wide. Construction on the expansion began 9 years ago in 2007.
Crissey reports here that if the expansion impacts U.S. freight patterns and trucking operations, it will likely come from containers moving from West Coast ports to East Coast ports.
"Any migration of eastbound container traffic from West Coast to East Coast would result in less rail and long-haul truck services and increase those services along the eastern U.S. seaboard," Crissey said in his report. "The degree to which that will happen remains unknown, but even a 10 percent shift could have major ramifications for surface freight patterns."
More on the impacts of the Canal's expansion on the U.S. trucking industry can be seen in Part 3 of Crissey's series here. Part 2, which focuses on the impact of the expansion on Panama's economy, can be seen here.


Disability Pride week is an annual event used to promote visibility and mainstream awareness of the positive pride felt by people with disabilities within their community. It marks a break from traditional concepts of disabilities as shameful conditions, which were often hidden from public spaces and mainstream awareness.
Wellington will celebrate Disability Pride week, an event initiated and led by the disabled community and opening at Te Papa on Sunday 27 November. Nick Ruane, Disability Pride week's co-convenor with Rachel Noble, says it's time for disabled people to show their diversity, express their creativity and tell their stories.

Chris Stapleton joins Steve Earle on Hardcore Troubadour Radio!
Chris Stapleton has become one of the best-selling artists in recent years, since the release of his debut solo album Traveller in 2015. Expectations were high for the sophomore follow-up, and From A Room: Volume 1 does not disappoint.
The Grammy-winner sat down with Steve Earle on his Hardcore Troubadour Radio show in Outlaw Country to chat about the new record, working in the historic RCA Studio A room in Nashville and their mutual guitar collecting habits. He also treated us to a performance of three solo acoustic songs, including a cover of Willie Nelson 1982 hit The Last Thing I Needed The First Thing This Morning.
During the interview, Earle asked Stapleton, who has reached a wide crossover audience with his unvarnished brand of Outlaw Country music, if he cared about genre labels.
"I always just want to call it music, you know," Stapleton responded. "If you like it, great, if you don't, go listen to something that you do like. I don't know; I don't want to put a label on it that makes somebody think that they automatically don't like it. Or that they automatically like it. I think you should evaluate music like you do people, kind of based on your individual experience with that music and how you respond to each other. I don't know. I don't like labels on music. You're right. I really don't."
Chris Stapleton on the Steve Earle Show airs Saturday, May 13 at 9 pm ET with replays Sunday, May 14 at 9 am ET; Monday, May 15 at 1 am & 11 am ET; Tuesday, May 16 at 12 am ET; and Wednesday May 17 at 9 pm ET on Outlaw Country (Ch. 60).

Milwaukee Wisconsin News
Milwaukee (/mɪlˈwɔːkiː/) is the largest city in the State of Wisconsin and the fifth-largest city in the Midwestern United States. It is the county seat of Milwaukee County and is located on the southwestern shore of Lake Michigan. According to 2010 census data, the City of Milwaukee has a population of 594,833. Milwaukee is the main cultural and economic center of the Milwaukee–Racine–Waukesha Metropolitan Area with a population of 2,043,904 as of an official 2014 estimate.
The first Europeans to pass through the area were French Catholic missionaries and fur traders. In 1818, the French Canadian explorer Solomon Juneau settled in the area, and in 1846 Juneau's town combined with two neighboring towns to incorporate as the City of Milwaukee. Large numbers of German and other immigrants helped increase the city's population during the 1840s and the following decades.
Known for its brewing traditions, major new additions to the city include the Milwaukee Riverwalk, the Wisconsin Center, Miller Park, an expansion to the Milwaukee Art Museum, Milwaukee Repertory Theater, and Pier Wisconsin, as well as major renovations to the UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena. In addition, many new skyscrapers, condos, lofts and apartments have been constructed in neighborhoods on and near the lakefront and riverbanks.

Milwaukee Intermodal Station is the main intercity bus and train station in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, located downtown. The station is served by Amtrak's Empire Builder and Hiawatha Service as well as bus companies Coach USA - Wisconsin Coach Lines (regional and intercity services), Greyhound Lines, Jefferson Lines, Indian Trails, Lamers, Badger Bus and Megabus.
Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) local bus route 57 serves the station directly and several other local bus routes operate on nearby streets.
The city's other intercity stations include Milwaukee Airport Railroad Station near General Mitchell International Airport on the south side of the city and several other intercity bus stations. Intercity bus companies with a presence in Milwaukee besides those at serving the intermodal include Badger Bus and Tornado Bus.
The Milwaukee Union Station was dedicated on August 3, 1965 by the Milwaukee Road to replace their previous Everett Street Depot. The Chicago and North Western Railroad closed their Milwaukee station (Lake Front Depot) and moved their passenger operations to the new Milwaukee Road depot in 1966. The depot was built on West St. Paul Avenue in a modernistic style that proved unpopular quickly after it was erected.
