Meet The Band: Glasya
by Chad Bowar/
This week we're featuring the Portuguese symphonic metal group Glasya in Meet The Band. They just released their debut album Heaven's Demise. Keyboardist Davon Van Dave (ex-Urban Tales/ex-Shadowsphere) introduces us to his band.
Chad Bowar: Give us a brief history of Glasya.
Davon Van Dave: Glasya started with the initial idea of Hugo Esteves, guitarist and founder of the band, to create a project that could join symphonic elements with metal but in a very dramatic and almost cinematic way. So he started to gather several musicians he knew and after the members began to enter, the sound became more cohesive with several influences from folk to prog, but always with that soundtrack vibe.
Describe the songwriting process for Heaven's Demise.
It was a very easy and flowing process. The main composers, Hugo Esteves and me, we work very well together. Hugo creates the guitar structures and I make the orchestral arrangements. Some songs are born from the guitar, other from the keyboards, but each one understands the feeling to express in the songs. Then, all the band members contribute with their talent to complete the song, Eduarda wrote several lyrics and vocal melodies. Bruno Ramos along with playing drums, he also has a great musical knowledge and helps a lot in the structures. Bruno Prates is an awesome guitar player and he has solos in the album are very technical, but also very emotional and melodic. Finally, Manuel Pinto with his bass makes the rhythm section so solid and perfect.
What will be your strongest memory of the recording of the album?
We only have good memories from the recording sessions, but one that I really will always remember is our producer's surprise when Eduarda recorded all the main vocal lines in just one day. He said "Well, if she decides to give up singing today, I have already all I need to the album." One thing that I will always remember too is that we all worked with a big smile in our faces. We had several fun moments while recording and we left the studio always with big hugs and very happy with what we had done that day.
How would you characterize its style/sound?
I think that aside from being a symphonic metal album, it is more than that. It's the soundtrack of several stories and feelings that I believe that some can touch in the deep heart of our listeners. So I can consider it a "dramatic symphonic metal" album.
What lyrical topics do you cover?
We explore several aspects of our daily life transposed into fantasy/ancient themes. We use imaginary characters and worlds to express our human concerns, fears and struggle. Each song has a different narrative and characters. For example, "Heaven's Demise" talks about someone who deceives others to his own interests, "Ignis Sanctus" talks about living a life without hope and fearing that the end is near, "Coronation of a Beggar" tells that no one can be judged by their social condition, "Glasya" is the hymn of the human strength to fight and how to gain the will to resist, and so on. But we believe those who hear and read the lyrics can interpret the message in his own way. That's the beauty of our different life experiences and feelings.
How did you come to sign with Pride & Joy Music?
We had been following Pride & Joy Music's work for some time and since then we knew they would be a great partner. All the great promotion done for their bands and the quality they have shown in their releases made us contact them in this important stage of the band. It was not easy to convince them at first. We showed them our earlier demos last year, but it was not enough to make them sign us. We started to contact other labels and when we finished the album we were ready to sign with another label. A whole year passed, we tried to talk again with Pride & Joy Music and with the album ready itwas possible to show Birgitt, the Pride & Joy Music CEO, our value and, for our happiness, she signed us.
What are your goals and expectations for the album?
We want to be more than a band that released an album and then sank into oblivion. We have a purpose and it is to touch people! We don't have the concern to be super innovative and do things that no one has done before, we just want to be true, express feelings, create stories and make people be identified with what we are telling. We have very good expectations but we are also realistic. We are a new band from a small country. Some doors are more difficult to open, but we have the will to go further, so, step by step, I believe that more and more people will know us.
What has been your most memorable Glasya live show?
The Milagre Metaleiro Festival in Portugal, for sure. We were invited to be the opening band and two months after, a few days before the festival day, we knew that we were almost headliners, which was really a great surprise!
What are your upcoming show/tour plans?
It's easier to talk with promoters, bands and agencies after the album release date. We are starting to schedule our live shows, but with the album in our hands will be easier to reach the people we need to talk to make that happen. September will begin our "Heaven's Demise" tour certainly.
How did you get started in music?
I always had the curiosity to learn how to play musical instruments, but when I started to hear metal music in the early '90s, I started to take that will more seriously. I started to play guitar, but the reason I began to play keyboards was my cousin Rui Faria. When I showed him some keyboard lines I made, he pushed me to dedicate myself to the keyboards, and since them I left the guitar and began to buy keyboards and be in bands as a keyboard player.
Who were your early influences and inspirations?
My first favorite metal album was Amorphis – Tales from the Thousand Lakes. It has great guitar melodies but also predominant keyboards that was not usual in metal music at that time. I always liked more the melodic side of metal music; even the death metal bands I liked were the ones that had strong melodies in their sound, like Carcass or Dark Tranquillity. After hearing the Gladiator soundtrack I began to worship Hans Zimmer and the great soundtrack composers and they became one of my main influences.
What was the first rock/metal concert you attended?
My first metal concert was the band I liked the most that time, Amorphis on their "Tales from the Thousand Lakes" tour date in Portugal. For me it was a new great experience to see a metal concert live, more because it was my favorite band and the sound was really great. What was funny to me is that they seemed to be drunk while playing, but it was a really memorable concert!
How's the metal scene in Portugal?
Portugal has a lot to offer. We have many great bands from several styles and the quality of the bands and musicians are growing every day. Portugal is well-known for our most famous band, Moonspell. They have taken our language and culture to the metal community worldwide and we are very proud of them. We are a small country in the south of Europe, we are most famous for our soccer stars, as Cristiano Ronaldo, and our traditional music Fado, but the metal scene in Portugal is very strong. We are very close to each other and the Portuguese metal fans support the bands a lot. We always feel their warmth while we are in stage. Be aware, because more and more good Portuguese metal bands will cross the Portuguese borders and reach you.
What's currently in your heavy musical rotation?
Our album Heaven's Demise! (laughs) I listen to the album several times, I like to analyze it. But, I'm listening to a lot Beast in Black – From Hell With Love and Amon Amarth – Berserker. Beast in Black has the great vocals of Yannis Papadopoulos that I really admire and Amon Amarth has that Viking feeling that makes me always listen to their works.
Anything else you'd like to mention or promote?
Yes, first of all, thank you again for this interview and I'd like to invite everyone to listen to our Heaven's Demise album. We made it with our hearts and we have our deep emotions and beliefs in it, and if you feel it as we do, join us on our social media and live concerts. You will be always welcome in our band.

Aztec Stat of the Week
Aztec Stat of the Week: Long Snapping Efficiency
December 12, 2012 February 13, 2013 / Hunter O. Hewitt	/ 1 Comment
Freshman long snapper Jeff Overbaugh has played an integral role in San Diego State's success this season (Ernie Anderson/SDSU Media Relations)
In football, special teams often go unnoticed.
Even when special teams plays are highlighted, certain details of those plays are typically overlooked. For example, when a game-winning field goal is shown, the announcers rarely talk about how well the ball was snapped.
Long snappers play a critical role on every football team. In addition to snapping the ball to the holder for field goals, they also snap the ball on punts, ensuring that the ball reaches the punter in a timely manner and in the appropriate spot for the punter to kick the ball well.
Although long snappers rarely receive praise, San Diego State football long snapper Jeff Overbaugh deserves some recognition. The true freshman long snapper has been flawless all season with his snapping duties, and he has the stats to prove it.
Through 12 games, Overbaugh has snapped the ball well on all 105 attempts. He is 52-for-52 on PATs, 12-for-12 on field goals, and 41-for-41 on punts – impressive numbers for a freshman playing a nerve-racking position at the Division 1 level.
A product of long snapping guru Chris Rubio – like former SDSU long snappers Aaron Brewer and Tyler Schmitt – Overbaugh's talents have helped the Aztecs' special teams immensely. Teamed with freshman punter Seamus McMorrow, San Diego State is sure to have a solid punting game for years to come. And although senior kicker Chance Marden will be gone after the season, Overbaugh will have the Aztecs nearly worry-free when it comes to field goal snaps for the next three seasons.

Aztec Stat of the Week: 18
November 20, 2012 February 13, 2013 / Hunter O. Hewitt	/ Leave a comment
The Aztecs celebrate after defeating Air Force to improve to 6-1 in conference play (Ernie Anderson/SDSU Media Relations)
This week, only one stat matters.
"Working on?"
Since 2009, that is what has been said before every team meeting by the San Diego State football team. The coach asks two simple questions, the players give two simple responses.
In school history, 18 conference championships have been won, and Aztec fans have been anxiously awaiting the 19th for years.
SDSU controls its own destiny on Saturday, as they will finally have the chance to win their 19th conference championship when they take on Wyoming in their final Mountain West Conference game.
If the Aztecs win, there are two other games that will determine whether or not the Mountain West Conference championship is shared or won outright. SDSU, Boise State, and Fresno State are all 6-1 in conference play, and each have one game remaining.
Air Force vs. Fresno State – 12:30 p.m. pst on Saturday, Nov. 24 at Bulldog Stadium in Fresno, Calif.
Boise State vs. Nevada – TBA on Saturday, Dec. 1 at Mackay Stadium in Reno, Nev.
If both Fresno State and Boise State lose their final conference games, SDSU will win the conference championship outright. Because there are no tiebreakers in the Mountain West, if either Fresno State or Boise State, or both, win their final games, it will be either a two-way or three-way tie for the conference championship.
Previous Conference Championships
In order of the most recent, the 18 conference championships in SDSU history are as follows:
1998, 1986, 1974, 1973, 1972, 1970, 1969, 1967, 1966, 1963, 1962, 1951, 1950, 1937, 1936, 1924, 1923, 1922
In 1998, led by head coach Ted Tollner, the Aztecs were co-champions of the Western Athletic Conference with a conference record of 7-1 and an overall record of 7-5. They tied with BYU and Air Force in the regular season, making the three teams co-champions in conference play. Air Force eventually went on to beat BYU in the conference championship game, but SDSU was technically still a co-champion in the regular season.
The last time SDSU won a conference championship outright was in 1986, when quarterback Todd Santos led the Aztecs to a 7-1 record in the Western Athletic Conference and an 8-4 record overall. The season ended with a heartbreaking 39-38 loss to Iowa in the Holiday Bowl.
This Saturday will determine if the Aztecs can secure their 19th conference championship, and the following Saturday could determine if it is won outright or shared.
WIN 19!
Aztec Stat of the Week: Pass Break-Ups – Leon McFadden
November 13, 2012 April 26, 2013 / Hunter O. Hewitt	/ 2 Comments
Leon McFadden breaks up a pass vs. North Dakota, one of his 10 pass break-ups this season (Ernie Anderson/SDSU Media Relations)
When San Diego State defeated Boise State on Nov. 3, Aztec cornerback Leon McFadden recorded four tackles and a pass break-up in the game. The numbers weren't eye-popping, likely because teams often shy away from throwing to McFadden's side, but one statistic inched him closer to leaving his mark in the SDSU record books.
With the pass break-up against Boise State, McFadden improved his season total to 10, good for most on the team. He now has a total of 37 pass break-ups in his career, which ties a school record. He has matched former SDSU defensive back Eric Lewis, who also broke up 37 passes from 1995-1998.
What is most impressive about the statistic is that McFadden has managed to tie the record with a limited number of opportunities. Tabbed as the Preseason Defensive Player of the Year in the Mountain West Conference before the season began, he has developed a reputation as a shutdown cornerback.
Opposing offenses often focus on the side of the field where McFadden isn't, taking away chances for the senior cornerback to make plays. Despite the reduced opportunities, he has still managed 56 total tackles and three interceptions, two of which he returned for touchdowns, in his final season at SDSU.
With two games remaining and only one pass break-up needed, McFadden has a great chance to break the record and solidify himself as one of the best defensive backs to ever play at SDSU.
*UPDATE (12/21/12)
Leon McFadden recorded two pass break-ups in the final game vs. BYU. He now holds the record for most pass break-ups in San Diego State history with 39.

Springfield has a rich history. There are so many beautiful homes that have been standing for decades in the city. In this article, local author and historian Connie Yen takes a look at two stunning historic properties in the heart of Springfield.
The Keet-McElhany house is arguably one of the most famous houses in Springfield. The house was built in 1881 for local banker James Tolfree. In 1883, James E. Keet, and his wife, Katherine Holland, bought the house. James' father, Josiah Keet, was a partner in Keet-Rountree Dry Goods in downtown Springfield. James worked for many years as the secretary and treasurer of the family business and eventually served as its president. The Keets enlarged the house and added the elaborate Queen Anne-style ornamentation that has made the house a downtown landmark for over 100 years.
By 1886, the Keets had completed the substantial changes made to their new homes. The porch was enlarged and became considerably more elaborate. They added the turret on the west wing, as well as an additional building in back that contained a kitchen and servants quarters. They later added a third floor to the house with a Queen Anne-style roof.
One of the extensive changes made by the Keet family was the addition of a large cellar. The new cellar included a tunnel that extends from the basement of the house to the servants quarters in back. The tunnel's arched roof is visible above ground.
Though the primary renovations were done in a couple of different phases, there were ongoing changes to the house that are typical of long term home ownership. Since the Keet family was prominent in Springfield social circles, some of those changes were considered newsworthy and were reported in local newspapers, such as the addition of an electric doorbell.
The Keets frequently entertained the most prominent Springfield families in their home and their social activities were consistently detailed in local newspapers. In 1899, the Springfield Republican reported that "Mr. and Mrs. James E. Keet's guests at Thanksgiving Dinner were; Mr. and Mrs. Lee Holland, Mrs. And Mrs. Ralph Holland, Mrs. E.J. Robberson, Miss Lida Robberson, Miss Emily Otterson, and Mr. Jamie Holland." The Holland family were prominent in Springfield business and banking circles and were relatives of Katherine Keet.
Though this beautiful home is now surrounded by businesses and parking lots, it was once surrounded by numerous other beautiful houses. Unfortunately, those homes are no longer extant. Somehow, this house alone survived the commercial expansion of the central business district.
Katherine Holland Keet lived in her home until her death in 1920. James and Katherine's daughter, Katherine E., was already living there with her husband, Claude McElhany. Claude died in 1956 and Katherine E. remained in the family home until her death in 1983.
The house contains over 6,000 square feet, including the basement and tunnel area. It has 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, and numerous fireplaces. Though it is over 100 years old, the Keet-McElhany house has been excellently maintained and still retains many of the original features.
Paul Nicholas and his family settled west of Springfield in 1902. Humboldt Place became the showpiece of their 176-acre farm. Most the former farmland is now developed, but the beautiful Humboldt house still remains, nestled in a park-like setting on the last few acres of the original farm. Nicholas chose the name of his new home based on the name of an Arizona copper mine he had once managed.
In November 1903, the Springfield Republican announced the imminent construction of "a very fine resident" for Paul Nicholas. The builder was A.R. Bowman who projected a cost of $16,000 to complete the house that would be known as Humboldt Place. Work was completed in 1904.
Like the Keet family, Nicholas and his wife, Roselle, were busy in the Springfield social scene. They were members of the Springfield Club and participated in numerous social events at the club with Springfield's leading citizens, including F.X. Heer, Franks Fellows, H.B. McDaniel, and John T. Woodruff. The couple were also members of the Country Club and attended numerous events at the Colonial Hotel. Paul Nicholas just happened to be on the board of directors of the Colonial Hotel Building Company.
In 1915, Paul and Roselle's daughter, Murillo, married Springfield banker James Claude McDaniel. The wedding was held in the drawing room of Humboldt Place, a "spacious suburban home…west of the city." The wedding was attended by about 150 guests and was likely one of the main social events of the season.
Humboldt Place is a two-story brick structure and was built in the neoclassical style with a main central block and two wings. The front gable is supported by six Corinthian columns and is decorated with a round, stained glass window. Humboldt Place displays an uncommon architectural house style for the Springfield area and we are fortunate that is beautiful building is still extant.
Paul Nicholas died in 1936 of pneumonia at age 80. Roselle and Murillo, who had divorced James McDaniel, continued to live in the family home until around 1944, when she sold Humboldt Place and moved to a smaller home on S. Weller. She died of cancer in 1954 at the age of 81.

Sometimes your silicone mixture just doesn't come out right! I was trying for a mix of some bright colors with cells using the Pour and Swipe method of liquid acrylic painting. Something didn't get mixed up properly, or else I mixed in the wrong proportions, because as soon as I swiped the black across the paints, they streaked instead of forming cells.
Since it was ruined anyway, I tried an experiment, which I ended up rather liking!
White gesso on heavy watercolor paper, paints mixed up (I thought) like in my previous liquid paintings. But they look grainy, don't they?
As soon as I swiped, this is what I got...a total mess with colors sliding all over each other and no cells at all. Since it was such an irredeemable mess, I sprayed it with some more silicone and watched the colors break up and move around even more. It was kind of cool to see, so I started moving them a bit myself.
When I got the streaks of color into patterns that I liked, I let it dry overnight. I blotted it to remove any silicone just sitting on the surface, and dripped black ink from the top, giving it a light mist of rubbing alcohol to encourage more fuzzy edges.
So far, we've gone through the steps for doing a pour and swipe liquid painting and a pour and tilt liquid painting! This week, we'll look at the flip cup method. Each of these techniques has its benefits and its limitations. I really like the flip cup method, but you have the least control with this one. It's fun to not know what you're going to get, but it can be frustrating too!
For the set up, follow the first three steps from last week. Even the paint colors that I used are the same, and are listed in step four. Funny how totally different this one turned out from last week when they were the same colors!
4. Pour the paints from their smaller individual cups into a large disposable cup, each one on top of the previous color in this order: Titanium white, Cobalt teal, white again, Pyrrole orange, white again, and Quinacridone magenta.
5. Flip the cup upside down onto the masonite board. Hold it down and swirl it slightly. Remove the cup and tilt to spread the paints. Spray lightly with rubbing alcohol or use a long-nosed lighter to bring up more cells in certain areas if you'd like.
6. When the piece is perfectly dry (overnight is best), use a pipette to apply some undiluted white ink to form underwater grasses.

ATLANTA, Ga. – August 15, 2016 – Panelists for the "Teleports of the Future – The Next 30 Years" program were identified earlier this month from the participating companies. The program, hosted and sponsored by Crystal, features a networking hour, and brief panel and discussion led by members of Crystal, Encompass, Intelsat, and Turner Broadcasting via the aid of the Southeastern Chapter of the Society of Satellite Professionals International (SSPI).

A look back at Thursday's opening round.
Tony Finau: Though probably best known to casual fans as "that guy who busted his ankle celebrating a hole-in-one at the Masters," Finau continued his strong play in the majors Thursday. Coming off a T10 at Augusta and a fifth-place finish at the U.S. Open, Finau opened at Carnoustie with a 4-under 67 and is one shot off the lead held by Kevin Kisner.
Dustin Johnson: The No. 1 ranked player in the world has quite a bit of work to do if he's going to make noise in this one. Johnson never found a groove in Round 1 and put two balls out of bounds. The second came on the final hole, when he put his approach shot into the 18th green well left of the target, and three-putted for triple bogey to cap a 5-over 76.
Brooks Koepka: The defining image of Koepka's opening round came on the par-3 eighth hole, when he got down on both knees, leaned into a bunker and attempted to flick the ball out. It was a shot he had practiced Tuesday but the two-time U.S. Open champ said he got "too cute" Thursday. The ball stayed in the sand and settled in a bad lie. For his next shot, Koepka took plenty of sand and not enough of the ball, which rebounded off the wall of the bunker and dropped back in. Koepka got up-and-down for a double-bogey 5.
• Jhonattan Vegas, who arrived in Scotland on Thursday morning and barely made his tee time after a series of visa and travel woes, shot a 5-over 76 using a borrowed set of clubs because his never showed up.
• Kisner is sharing a house this week with Jason Dufner, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, Rickie Fowler, Jimmy Walker and Zach Johnson.
• Tiger Woods' even-par 71 is his second-best round in a major this season (69, final round at the Masters).
Really liking Golf Channel micing up the seagulls at Carnoustie. Makes me want to reach down to guard my boardwalk fries.
— Russell Knox, paired with Woods for the first time.
Morning rain is forecast, with the afternoon wave likely missing any wet weather. What will that do to the leaderboard? Golf Channel has coverage all day.

CHICAGO (potential spoiler alert) – This weekend, three news gems surfaced on the highly anticipated "The Dark Knight Rises". First, filming officially began on May 6, 2011 in Jodhpur, India. Second, fan spies have already snapped and leaked the first official set image: an enigmatic green pool.
CHICAGO – There was talk of a sequel even before "The Dark Knight" hit theaters and obliterated box-office records. That's all we still have at this point, but we also have a pair of decent, fan-made posters for "The Dark Knight" sequel.

Imagine yourself immersed in the Italian countryside. Your abode is a 1,000 sq. ft mini-dome -– a pod. Simply furnished with luxurious Swedish mattresses, with private bath including a personal Hammam and steam room. Your days are spent in leisurely strolls around the property, touring art cities like Parma and Bologna, savoring prosciutto made from an almost extinct breed of pig, and watching the sunset over endless hills (check out the photo here) while sipping superb wine. It used to be that we travelers were all about connectedness, and tempers flared when the wi-fi wasn't as fast as lightning. But now a "holiday" for many of us is about DIS-connecting. This is one way to do just that.
Tempted? Meet Rosa dell'Angelo, a company located in the heart of Italy's "food valley". We recommend a couple of nights here. Fly into the Bologna airport and rent a car. Head out of the hectic city to these hills. Enter the property and head straight to the prosciutto bar, where you'll sample the delicacies of the farm and the area. As the meal depends on availability of local produce, the menu changes often. You'll always find superb fresh pasta, fruits, and salumi. This is the heart of parmesan cheese country, so that will be incorporated in many ways as well. Eat and drink to your fill, then head to your pod. If ever there was a place where the body and mind can truly rest, it's here. Premium quality beds and bathrooms make the pods supremely comfortable, and there's nothing here to disturb you. The pace is easy. After a nap, there are a few ways to navigate the property. Try mountain bikes, donkey tours, off-road vehicles, antique Lamborghini tractors, or your own feet. You'll learn more about those pigs I mentioned above, black as can be and famous locally for the delicate yet rich flavor they lend to the many cold cuts produced by Rosa dell'Angelo. Interesting is the tour of the production process, where you can learn the different techniques used to make the many types of salumi: crudo, coppa, capacollo, pancetta, etc. The farm also boasts rare breeds of dairy cattle that roam the property freely, and produce extremely tasty cheese. Rosa dell'Angelo promotes many fellow small and local businesses that are similarly interested in saving from obscurity these types of animals and products, and you can easily venture out to meet like-minded souls in the area.
A great time to visit this corner of the Food Valley would be during the Rural Food Festival, founded by a pig farmer in 2014 and hugely successful over the past three years. Keep an eye on www.rural.it for this year's dates; likely early September. Last year's festival offered swing music for dancing, samples of the sweet flesh of baked violina pumpkins and sips of fresh termarina grape juice. Both products are unique to the region, just like the majority of other products available for purchase. The producers believe that events like the Food Festival can introduce upscale consumers to a sustainable way to farm and enjoy produce. Oh, and this is the perfect place to take the little ones. They can cuddle a lamb or feed a baby donkey. DIS-connection at its finest!

Q: Zoom div on page load using Javascript I'm using the following code to show a div when it is scrolled into view. I would like to simplify this and show the div when the page loads and not when scrolled into view. Any help would be great. Many thanks.

var animateHTML = function () {
  var elems,
    windowHeight
  var init = function () {
    elems = document.getElementsByClassName('hidden')
    windowHeight = window.innerHeight
    _addEventHandlers()
  }
  var _addEventHandlers = function () {
    window.addEventListener('scroll', _checkPosition)
    window.addEventListener('resize', init)
  }
  var _checkPosition = function () {
    for (var i = 0; i < elems.length; i++) {
      var posFromTop = elems[i].getBoundingClientRect().top
      if (posFromTop - windowHeight <= 0) {
        elems[i].className = elems[i].className.replace('hidden', 'fade-in-element')
      }
    }
  }
  return {
    init: init
  }
}
animateHTML().init()

A: You can use Element#scrollIntoView to make the element visible in the viewport.
You can use the DOMContentLoaded event to know when the DOM is ready.
Note: the options object - { behavior: 'smooth', block: 'center' } is only supported by Chrome and Firefox. Other browsers support only a the alignToTop boolean, and since the object will evaluate to true the element will jump to the top.

document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {
  document.querySelector('.active').scrollIntoView({
    behavior: 'smooth',
    block: 'center'
  });
});
.block {
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  border: 1px solid red;
}

.active {
  border: 1px solid blue;
}

Scroll into view

A pingó föld takarta jégből álló halom. Az Arktiszon és a szubarktikus területeken találtak ilyen halmokat, amelyeknek a magassága elérheti a 70 métert és az átmérője a 600 métert.

Periglaciális jelenség, tehát olyan területekre jellemző, ahol az időszakos fagyás és olvadás jelentős mértékben alakítja a környezetet.

A szó a nyugat-kanadai eszkimó nyelvekből származik, a jelentése dombocska.

Kialakulása
Pingók csak permafroszt környezetben alakulhatnak ki, azaz ott, ahol a talaj legalább két évig fagyott állapotban van. Ha valahol összeomlott pingók vannak, abból arra lehet következtetni, hogy ott korábban permafroszt volt.

June 25 Parade - This Week Community News!
June 25 Parade Celebrates Community, Country
By ALAN FROMAN
The Westland Area Independence Day Parade is as much a celebration of community as country -- and organizers aren't waiting until July 4 to get started.
"We look at the parade as a community-building event," said the Rev. Nancy Day-Achauer, president of the Westland Area Business Association and co-chair of the parade committee.
"There aren't a lot of opportunities on the West Side for people to get together as a community and share in a fun, family event," she said.
"The parade's been a great tradition for decades, since the inception of Lincoln Village," parade committee co-chair David Donofrio said.
The 2016 parade will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, June 25, in Lincoln Village North.
The parade route will begin on Medfield Way (behind the shopping center off West Broad Street) and proceed west down Beacon Hill Road and then south on Pasadena Avenue.
This year's parade theme is "Building a Broad Future," and refers to the ongoing construction project on Broad Street, Day-Achauer said.
Parade participants will be eligible to win trophies in five categories: Most Creative Float, Best Family Entry, Best Youth Entry, Best Walking Entry and Most Patriotic.
"We'll have a panel of judges evaluating each of the floats," Day-Achauer said. "We're encouraging people to have fun and come up with their most creative ideas."
One goal this year is to encourage families to participate in the parade, Donofrio said.
There will be no entry fee for families, he said.
"It's a tradition we're really hoping to revive," Donofrio said.
"Back in the '50s and '60s, a lot of families would work together on a family float. We want to bring back that family focus."
Youth group and athletics entries are also free. Entry fees are $50 for political groups, $30 for businesses and $10 for nonprofit organizations.
Registration forms are available at the Prairie Township Administration Office, 23 Maple Drive; Westland Public Library, 4740 W. Broad St. They are also available by emailingWaba.cols@gmail.com.
Completed registration forms should be sent to Rev. Nancy Day-Achauer, St. Mark's United Methodist Church, 5200 Sullivant Ave., Columbus 43228. Checks should be made payable to WABA.
The registration deadline "is 9:59 a.m. June 25," Day-Achauer said, chuckling. "We've had people enter their float just before the parade is starting."

A Cuban man who landed Friday with 10 other migrants in Cayman Brac has reportedly wired his own mouth shut.
Fellow migrants living in Grand Cayman on supervised community release said they believed the measure had been taken as part of a hunger strike.
An image circulating on social media showed two gold-colored wires punctured through a man's top and bottom lips. A statement from the Ministry of Human Resources and Immigration acknowledged the situation but did not elaborate on the nature of the incident.
"The Ministry of Human Resources and Immigration is unable to comment on the situation or give specifics of the identities of the persons involved at this time," the statement said.
The Department of Immigration indicated the migrants were in good health at the time of their arrival, following six days at sea, and were being evaluated by doctors on Cayman Brac before being transferred to Grand Cayman.

Q: IndexError: list index out of range while scraping tables to excel issues I have a few issues I'm trying to resolve. First, I'm trying to figure out how I can get the "International Regular Season Stats - Per Game" and "International Regular Season Stats - Advanced Stats" tables of each player. Right now I'm trying to work with the international, but ultimately, I want both next to each other. However, the table number for each player could be different so Carlos Delfino is [18] but Fabricio Oberto has it as [11]. The error I'm getting because of this is '''IndexError: list index out of range``` Also, i'd like to put the player's name on each row for every season he's played. I also want to leave a blank row for a player without the table (Yao Ming).
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
playernames=['Carlos Delfino', 'Fabricio Oberto', 'Yao Ming']

for name in playernames:
  fname=name.split(" ")[0]
  lname=name.split(" ")[1]
  url="https://basketball.realgm.com/search?q={}+{}".format(fname,lname)
  response = requests.get(url)

  soup = BeautifulSoup(response.content, 'html.parser')
  table = (soup.find_all('table', attrs={'class': 'tablesaw', 'data-tablesaw-mode-exclude': 'columntoggle'})[18]).find_next('tbody')
  print(table)

  columns = ['Season', 'Team', 'League', 'GP', 'GS', 'TS%', 'eFG%', 'ORB%', 'DRB%', 'TRB%', 'AST%', 'TOV%', 'STL%', 'BLK%', 'USG%', 'Total S%', 'PPR', 'PPS', 'ORtg', 'DRtg', 'PER']
  df = pd.DataFrame(columns=columns)

  trs = table.find_all('tr')
  for tr in trs:
    tds = tr.find_all('td')
    row = [td.text.replace('\n', '') for td in tds]
    df = df.append(pd.Series(row, index=columns), ignore_index=True)

df.to_csv('international players.csv', index=False) ```

A: You can find the tags that have that specific header text (which is the <h2> tag), then use .findNext() to grab the table that follows. I would also consider using pandas' .read_html(), as it uses beautifulsoup under the hood to parse <table> tags and does the hardwork of iterating through the <th>, <tr>, and <td> tags. Once you have those tables, merge them on the common columns and append them to a final dataframe.
To handle guys like Yao Ming who doesn't have international tables, you can use the try/except. So essentially it'll try to grab the international table, if it's not there, it'll make a dataframe with just Yao's name and append that, leaving the row empty:
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import pandas as pd

playernames=['Carlos Delfino', 'Fabricio Oberto', 'Yao Ming']

result = pd.DataFrame()
for name in playernames:

    fname=name.split(" ")[0]
    lname=name.split(" ")[1]
    url="https://basketball.realgm.com/search?q={}+{}".format(fname,lname)
    response = requests.get(url)

    soup = BeautifulSoup(response.content, 'html.parser')

    try:
        table1 = soup.find('h2',text='International Regular Season Stats - Per Game').findNext('table')
        table2 = soup.find('h2',text='International Regular Season Stats - Advanced Stats').findNext('table')

        df1 = pd.read_html(str(table1))[0]
        df2 = pd.read_html(str(table2))[0]

        commonCols = list(set(df1.columns) & set(df2.columns))
        df = df1.merge(df2, how='left', on=commonCols)
        df['Player'] = name

    except:
        print ('No international table for %s.' %name)
        df = pd.DataFrame([name], columns=['Player'])

    result = result.append(df, sort=False).reset_index(drop=True)

cols = list(result.columns)
cols = [cols[-1]] + cols[:-1]
result = result[cols]
result.to_csv('international players.csv', index=False)

Output:
print (result.to_string())

Yes they can. If an employee has completed a training video that is provided by us at SafetyPlusWeb (something like Hazcom, Fall Protection, PPE, or any of the 60 videos we provide), then that training will not be available through the employee's Landing Page until it is within 30 days of expiration. For example, if Bob Jones takes Hazcom on August 30, 2015, that course will not be available on his landing page until July 30, 2016.
However, we have the separate training library that is accessible at all times by any employee. They would go to https://thesafetyweb.customerhub.net and login with your company's credentials. If you do not know yours, please give us a call or send us an email.
Once logged in all of the training videos can be found in the Safety Plus Training Library and the Awareness Library.


There is a greatly reduced classification tax rate for a portion of the market value of a qualifying homestead for those who meet the Blind/Disabled Homestead classification requirements. It can be an owner occupied or relative homestead.
The property cannot also be enrolled in the Disabled Veterans exclusion.
The Blind or Disabled (PDF) application and other related forms can be found on the Property Application & Verification Forms page. You may also visit the Minnesota Department of Revenue for additional information on property tax programs.


Approximately 1.6 billion people in 149 countries are affected by NTDs, with the burden concentrated in the poorest communities.
Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) can shatter the lives of those they infect, causing severe disability, illness and death if left untreated. NTDs kill 170,000 people every year, but their biggest impact is in the millions they disable and disfigure.
In 2012, GHS helped galvanize a diverse group of NGOs, private and public partners to sign the London Declaration on NTDs – committing to control, eliminate or eradicate 10 NTDs by the end of the decade. This commitment paved the way for catalytic progress against NTDs.
Five years later, the partnership to end NTDs has become the largest medical donation program in the world.
To illustrate this scale, in January 2017, industry partners around the globe made a collective donation of more than 200 million NTD treatments. While this represents less than 10% of the total number of treatments these companies donate every year, it was more than enough to set a Guinness World Record for "most medication donated in 24 hours." Watch the full story below.
There is more than Pandora's hope at the bottom of the box: humanity is now capable of driving many NTDs out of existence by 2030.
With continued investment and expanded partnerships, GHS believes that we can beat these diseases – unlocking enormous economic and global health benefits.
Achieving NTD goals produces broad benefits for both global development and the global economy.

Q: Can I make my app recognize the type of document my users have uploaded ? This is not about using ContentType to identify the type of file (.pdf,.doc,.xls etc). This is about identifying which type of company form/document my user has uploaded. For instance, I have an app which manages our external partners. And for those partners we need such things as a govt Regulations Form or a Tax Form.
I would love to be able to identify which type of document a user has uploaded in order for the system to identify what has been obtained and what still needs to be gotten from the partner.
I was thinking that maybe creating multiple Notes & Attachment type of related lists which were specific to the type of forms (ie a Tax Form related list ; a Regulations related list) would do this since I could identify if any of those lists had anything in them. But I don't know if that's feasible.
The only other way I can think of possibly accomplishing this is to prompt the user to check a box indicating the type of document he is uploading. But that isn't really what I'm looking for.
Should I maybe be approaching this with Content instead of Attachments ?
Thank you very much for any feedback.

A: Interesting Question :
I am not sure , but can this be done ?!
Read uploaded files content's :
Let say you are aware that your
Regulations Form : First Sentence = "My Regulation Form"
or a Tax Form : First Sentence = "This is a Tax form for the year..."
If yes then you can read your file contents by using something like this :
(It works for .txt - see if it works for all other files )
    public PageReference readContent() {
    fileContent = fileBody.toString();
     /* your business logic : like here : Compare first line with
         - accordingly use your business logic
   */
   }


France has seen 271 militants return from war zones in Iraq and Syria and all of them are subject to investigation by public prosecutors, the country's interior minister said in a newspaper interview.
About 700 French nationals are estimated to have fought in Islamic State (IS) ranks in Iraq and Syria, and like other European countries France has been wrestling with how to handle the flow of so-called returnees.
The number of militants to have returned to France includes 217 adults and 54 minors, with some of them currently in detention, Gerard Collomb said in an interview with Le Journal du Dimanche.
Asked how many French militants had been killed in Iraq and Syria, Collomb told the Sunday newspaper that it was difficult to corroborate information.
The head of France's special forces said in June that his units were directly involved in street battles in the Iraqi city of Mosul but denied they were specifically targeting French-born militants fighting for IS.
France has participated in a US-led coalition battling IS in Iraq, and it also intervened in Mali to push back an Islamist rebellion in the west African state.
French military interventions overseas have exposed it to attack by militants at home. Gunmen and suicide bombers killed 130 people in and around Paris in November 2015, and more than 100 were killed in other attacks in France in the past two-and-a-half years.
Collomb said the threat of militant attacks was "very high," citing two incidents targeting police on Paris's Champs Elysees and seven foiled plots so far this year.
An increasing number of people were being flagged under a preventative monitoring system for radicalised behaviour, with more than 18,500 people reported, he said.
France has been subject to state of emergency legislation, giving police extended powers, since the November 2015 attacks, and the government plans to incorporate some of these measures into ordinary law through a counter-terrorism bill to be put before parliament in the coming months.

California condors
By: Oliver H. Pattee and Robert Mesta
The California condor (Gymnogyps californianus) is a member of the vulture family. With a wingspan of about 3 m (9 ft) and weighing about 9 kg (20 lb), it spends much of its time in soaring flight visually seeking dead animals as food. The California condor has always been rare (Wilbur 1978; Pattee and Wilbur 1989). Although probably numbering in the thousands during the Pleistocene epoch in North America, its numbers likely declined dramatically with the extinction of most of North America's large mammals 10,000 years ago. Condors probably numbered in the hundreds and were nesting residents in British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, California, and Baja California around 1800. In 1939 the condor population was estimated at 60-100 birds, and its home range was reduced to the mountains and foothills of California, south of San Francisco and north of Los Angeles.
Conservation to halt the condor's decline included establishing the Sisquoc (1937) and Sespe (1947) condor sanctuaries within the Los Padres National Forest, obtaining fully protected status under California Fish and Game Code (1953), placement on California's first state endangered species list (1971), and, finally, being listed by the federal government under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (Wilbur 1978). The success of these efforts could not be judged, however, because verifiable status and trends data did not become available until 1982. By using these data, we confirmed the decline in condor numbers over the past 50 years was even greater than thought.


Just got this and was sold as a female. Im not familiar with this fish and was looking to get this one a mate. Age is said to be more than 5yr old and about 2inches in size. Pics from the seller attached. Appreciate in advance the help.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate's Latest Collaboration Is With The Seven Deadly Sins
By Sato October 7, 2014
With The Seven Deadly Sins' anime recently airing and the release of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate right around the corner in Japan, it makes sense that the two would collaborate for a new weapon in the upcoming game. Zaregoto tells us a little more on what it'll include.
The collaboration in question will feature a new Sword and Shield weapon which will be based off The Seven Deadly Sins protagonist Meliodas' weapon, the broken sword, or Dragon Handle.
Hunters will get to participate in a collaboration quest where they can collect materials to create Meliodas' weapon.
Some of you fans may already know that the broken sword (pictured) is actually pretty useless on its own, since Meliodas uses it as part of his Full Counter ability, so it'll be interesting to see how they incorporate it into Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate.
As far as other recent collaborations go, there will also be one from the Magi anime and manga, featuring a staff and sword.
Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate will release in Japan this Saturday, and a western release sometime in early 2015 for Nintendo 3DS.
