Japan in grip of OAP crime wave as lonely old men and women WANT to go to prison
Thread: Japan in grip of OAP crime wave as lonely old men and women WANT to go to prison
JAPAN has been rocked by an OAP crime wave because the "abandoned" elderly would rather go to prison than face life skint and alone.
Cops say the proportion of crimes being committed by those aged 65 and above has been steadily rising for more than 20 years.
In 1997, the elderly accounted for about one in 20 criminals convictions, but now the figure has grown to more than one in five as many are left to fend for themselves.
Desperate Toshio Takata, 69, told the BBC. he broke the law because he wanted somewhere to live free of charge.
"I reached pension age and then I ran out of money. So it occurred to me - perhaps I could live for free if I lived in jail," he revealed.
"So I took a bicycle and rode it to the police station and told the guy there: 'Look, I took this.'"
He was jailed for a year, but repeat offending has seen him spend most of the last decade locked up behind bars.
And of the 2,500 over-65s convicted by the courts in 2016, one in three had at least five previous convictions.
Shoplifting for food is the number one crime being committed by Japan's elderly population.
However, in Japan the punishment doesn't always fit the crime.
One report states the theft of a 200-yen (£1.40) sandwich could lead to a two-year sentence.
And one elderly jailbird interviewed by the BBC told how he had been jailed for stealing a bottle of peppers worth £2.50.
Many blame the crime wave on the "measly" state pension which in pricey Japan is virtually impossible to live on.
Others say due to increased economic pressures many children no longer look after their parents as they have traditionally done in the past.
In some provinces, many of the young have been forced to move away, leaving their parents to fend for themselves.
This cultural change has been called a modern form Ubasute - when it is said hard-up families used to abandon their elderly in the woods or up a mountain.
In 2015, a Japanese man was arrested for allegedly abandoning his "troublesome" disabled sister on a mountainside to die.
The 63-year-old was accused of taking his older sister, Sachiko, into a remote and mountainous part of Chiba Prefecture, east of Tokyo.
He told police he acted after their home in the town of Sanmu was destroyed earlier in the month by a tsunami.

Georgia's most important players of 2016: A familiar new name at No. 10
Reggie Carter has played in 21 games at Georgia since he arrived in 2013.
JASON GETZ/AJC
ATHENS – Reggie Carter is entering his fourth season on the Georgia football team. He's started one solitary game, and it was because of an equipment malfunction.
Midway through 2013, in Carter's true freshman season, starting inside linebacker Ramik Wilson was about to take the field against Missouri when Wilson realized he didn't have on a technical piece of equipment that players refer to as a "helmet." So while Wilson looked around for it, coaches sent in Carter, and after a couple plays he came off the field for Wilson.
Carter, at the time, was pushing Wilson for the starting spot, and thus a future of much playing time seemed ahead. But while he's had some strong games off the bench – five tackles against Florida in 2014, and four tackles against Clemson the same year – he's yet to assume the role of starter at one of Georgia's two inside linebacker spots.
He was set to do that last year, when he and Tim Kimbrough appeared on this list together, at No. 10. There was some talk about a kid named Jake Ganus, who had transferred over from UAB for his senior year. But if Ganus pushed anybody for a spot it was supposed to be Kimbrough. And that's the way it would've played out, if not for Carter's shoulder.
Carter hurt it in preseason practice, missed the season opener, then came off the bench in Week 2 at Vanderbilt, only to have the injury flare up again the next week, and that was it. He eventually had surgery and took a redshirt.
So now we enter Carter's fourth year. Ganus is gone after his whirlwind tour at Georgia. Kimbrough is also back after a suspension for the bowl game. Natrez Patrick, who started the final two games last season, is highly thought of as he enters his sophomore season. And there's still the immensely talented Roquan Smith, not to mention Juwan Taylor.
Where does this leave Carter? Back on this list, that's where.
Reminder: This is not a ranking of Georgia's best players, so to speak. It is an evaluation of which players are most vital to the team's success in 2016 based on their own talent, the importance of their position, the depth at certain positions, and the strengths and weaknesses of the team.
No. 12 was return specialist-receiver Isaiah McKenzie.
No. 11 was the place-kicker to be named in August.
Which brings us to …
10. REGGIE CARTER
WHY HE'S VITAL: There's been no proclamation, and there's no official depth chart, but Carter certainly seemed to earn one of the two starting spots with a strong spring. Patrick and Carter were with the first-team defense on G-Day. So why not lump Carter with Patrick, or even with Kimbrough? Because Carter offers a skill set and experience that, if he can stay healthy and play up to his position, will act as a stabilizing force on what is a very green front seven. Carter isn't huge (he's listed at 6-1 and 228 pounds) but he's known for his speed, tackling ability and intangibles: leadership, smarts and nose for the ball. If Carter can be the captain of the front seven and a dependable run stopper, that will be an immense help to Georgia's entire defense.
QUOTABLE: "I've been pleased with Reggie. He doesn't seem to have any instability in his shoulder. He's not holding back, not playing tentative, for a guy that went through that shoulder surgery." – Kirby Smart, during spring practice
BEST CASE: Carter wraps up the starting spot, then brings leadership and stability to the front seven throughout the season. He matches or comes close to Ganus' numbers last year (102 tackles, five tackles for loss, one sack), and helps Georgia's run defense improve, after ranking eighth in the SEC last year.
WORST CASE: Either the injury bug returns, or Carter doesn't end up being an asset in a full-time role. Georgia is forced to rely on less experienced players at inside linebacker, and it has a ripple effect on the rest of the defense.
FINAL WORD: Georgia's defense, and inside linebacker spots, could still be fine even without Carter. Witness last year's ranking. But will Patrick, Kimbrough or Smith turn out to be as productive as Ganus? Maybe, but it's easier to envision Carter emerging as the young front seven's much-needed leader.

St. Paul, Minn., December 13, 2017 – PolyMet Mining Corp., ("PolyMet" or the "company") TSX: POM; NYSE AMERICAN: PLM – announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary Poly Met Mining, Inc. (together "PolyMet" or the "company") has submitted to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources an updated Permit to Mine application for its NorthMet Project that incorporates the state's requirements for bankruptcy-proof financial assurance.
"With this financial assurance estimate, we believe PolyMet has fulfilled all of the requirements necessary for the state to issue a draft Permit to Mine," said Jon Cherry, president and CEO. The draft permit is expected to be released by the DNR in the near future.
PolyMet's application provides for $75 million in financial assurance for the first two years of construction, about $60 million of which is associated with historic iron ore mining at the former LTV Steel Mining Company site. This will include approximately $65 million in financial assurance instruments (letters of credit, surety bonds, etc.) and $10 million in cash to be held in trust by the state.
The revised application also provides assumptions and estimates that show financial assurance for the first year of mining, at $544 million. These figures represent the costs for the state to perform the closure and reclamation activities, including long-term water treatment, to meet current federal and state environmental standards if PolyMet is unable to perform the work.
The costs for PolyMet to execute the closure and reclamation plan have been considered in the project economics and are less than what it would cost for the state to do the work.
During operations, financial assurance figures will be updated on an annual basis to incorporate such things as new planned disturbances, ongoing reclamation completed as part of normal operations and any changes in regulations.
The largest single driver of cost in the financial assurance estimate during operations is treatment of water to meet the state wild rice sulfate standard of 10 mg/L, which is 25 times cleaner than the federal drinking water standard. The financial assurance estimate in the application is based on this standard.
State law stipulates that financial assurance be in place to cover anticipated closure and reclamation liabilities for the upcoming 12-month period. The amount is reviewed annually and adjusted accordingly. Because no mining or processing will have occurred during construction for the NorthMet Project, the initial financial assurance requirement covers the legacy liabilities and reclamation for any facilities or infrastructure built during the construction phase. The estimate increases in the first year of operations because mining, waste rock storage, tailings management and water treatment begin.
Financial assurance is an alternative source of funding that is controlled by the state if needed. Estimates reflect the costs that result from a government agency providing oversight and a government contractor doing the work rather than the company doing the work itself.
"PolyMet anticipates it can execute the plan more cost efficiently and absorb the reclamation costs as part of normal operating expenses," he said. "If we do our job right there will be no reason for government intervention and no reason for the financial assurance instruments to ever be called. We have both a financial and social incentive to ensure that the financial assurance is never called upon. What's most important, whether we execute the plan or the state executes it, the work will get done and the environment and taxpayers will be protected," Cherry said.

Q: Checking an ArrayList of Objects for a string I am having trouble with looking through my ArrayList of FacebookPerson object for a string (name). This is my first project working with ArrayLists, and as such I have, at best, only a basic idea of what I'm doing. What I'm not understanding is why fbUsers.contains(name) does not seem to do anything, and how I can correctly search for a string name.
---testFacebook_ArrayList.java

                System.out.println("Program terminated.");
                System.exit(1);
            }

                        fbUsers.get(i).setMood(mood);
                    }
                }
            }

   public String getContent(){

}

A: You could do a for loop for every user and call getName();
for (FacebookPerson fbp : fbUsers ){
     if (fbp.getName().equals(name)){
          System.out.println("Error, name already exists. Try again.");
          continue;
     }
}

A: You could use a 2d array list to store the information and link it to the name. That would fix your problem

A: Calderious,
You need to override and implement FacebookPerson's equals(...) method in order for contains to work. If you look at the List's contains(...) javadoc, it specifically mentions:

... returns true if and only if this collection contains at least one
  element e such that (o==null ? e==null : o.equals(e)).

add the following in your class
public class FacebookPerson {
  ...

  @Override
  public boolean equals(Object obj) {
    // your equals logic goes here
  }

  ...
}

or even better, IDEs can now create this based on your declared attributes. In Eclipse, you just need to right click on the code > Source > Generate hashCode() and equals().
I hope that helps.

Spectacular vintage collection ready to go under the hammer
Published: 09:22 Tuesday 14 February 2017
A vast private collection of more than one hundred classic and historic tractors and associated equipment has just been put up for auction.
Amassed and maintained by John Flynn over the past four decades, the cherished collection, which is currently held in Northern Ireland, is reputed to be one of the best in private hands and includes many historically important models from the 1950s and 1960s with several pre-1940s examples.
All the tractors have been restored where needed, are well maintained and in full working order. They have also been stored in museum-like conditions rather than being regularly driven which is helping generate considerable interest from enthusiasts and collectors from around the globe for this one-day sale.
The sale, which is expected to have a total hammer price of around £1m, is being arranged by Euro Auctions, leaders in conducting unreserved auctions of industrial plant, construction equipment and agricultural machinery, and will take place on Saturday, April 15, from 10am at its Dromore auction and corporate headquarters site in Northern Ireland.
"Over the past 40 years John Flynn has spent thousands of hours scouring the world spending tens-of-thousands of pounds to assemble this unique collection, in what became a life-long passion. John has now decided to put everything up for sale, all as unreserved individual lots in a single day event," explained Jonnie Keys, Operations Manager for Euro Auctions.
"Whilst his interest in heritage tractors has not waned, increased business interests in Asia have resulted in him deciding to sell this vast collection. This means that some of the rarest and best examples will now become available for others to own, care for and so preserve for future generations to enjoy."
BZ 5845, is a fantastic example of the Ferguson Brown Type A from 1938 with its Coventry Climax engine. It comes with its original log book and a wealth of documented Irish history. Following a successful 1933 demonstration of his Black Tractor, Harry Ferguson spent time refining it and in 1935 struck a deal where David Brown tractors would build them and Harry Ferguson Ltd would sell them. The first 550 Model tractors were initially priced at £224 with a basic range of implements costing £26. By contrast the contemporary Fordson cost only £140.
In October 1938 the Ferguson Brown tractor was demonstrated in the USA to Henry Ford Senior and he was so impressed that, with a simple handshake, an agreement was reached that resulted in the Ford‑Ferguson 9N.
There is also a rare and highly collectible Ferguson Prototype that was found dry, stored in a barn in Co Wicklow in the 80s and it transpires that it was a gift from Harry Ferguson to a former employee at the Banner Lane factory upon his retirement. Believed to be built in the USA in the early 40s, around the time of the split between Ferguson and Ford, it was shipped to the UK for field testing. There is also a rare 1943 Ford Ferguson Funk, based on the original N series of tractors. This is a six‑cylinder petrol version modelled on the Ford flathead 87HA engine. There are also several other 9N tractors in the collection, in classic grey livery, along with two post 1948 8N variants with their distinctive red and grey paint.
A pristine example of a 1950 Allgaier R22 tractor with the single cylinder water cooled Kaeble engine is also within the collection. German built, Allgaier were taken over by Porsche soon after this model was introduced and the Porsche two cylinder engine replaced the Kaeble unit. This currently sits alongside a well presented, fully restored and highly sought after Porsche powered Allgaier AP17.IT with a fully functional PTO driven winch. For its time this was a surprisingly inexpensive yet modern looking tractor.
There are also several stunning examples of the innovative and forward thinking Porsche Junior 108 tractor in this collection. Manufactured between 1952 and 1963 the Junior was powered by an air-cooled, 822 cc, single-cylinder diesel engine giving 14 hp. In addition to the above examples there are six Allgaier A111s in the collection, an AP17 an AP22 and a 113 from 1956. There are also several other Junior's with other Porsche models including four 217's an AP18, a 308, a 238 and an AP22 vineyard.
This collection also includes almost 30 Massey Ferguson tractors including the MF 97 that's based on the Minneapolis Moline tractor. Manufactured for Massey Ferguson Inc, Detroit by Minneapolis Moline in Minnesota USA, this model was produced from 1961 to 1965 using the impressive 8.3 litre six-cylinder water cooled diesel engine and five speed transmission.
Other marques in the collection include some stunning examples of tractors from David Brown, Deutz, plus Ford Jubilee's, Ferguson, Fordson and Massey Ferguson tractors including a mix of 35, 65, 135 and 148 models.
"This is a unique private collection, which includes many historically important tractors," concluded Jonnie Keys from Euro Auctions.
"We were delighted when we were approached to manage this unreserved sale and we've already received considerable interest from collectors and individuals from around the globe interested in acquiring their own little part of this heritage collection."
Full details and a catalogue for this forthcoming classic tractors event are available at www.euroauctions.com and bidders are required to pre-register if they intend to visit the sale in person or bid via Euro Auctions' Free Internet Bidding Service.

Italy / Apulia / Lecce / Gallipoli / Apartment Ref. 653085
Apartment for 4-6 people only 100 meters from the beach
Gallipoli , Italy
Gallipoli Lido San Giovanni area, apartment with splendid sea view, on the fifth floor with lift, composed of: large living-dining room, kitchenette, two bedrooms, two complete bathrooms and balconies and veranda with table and chairs. A stone's throw from the beach. Maximum 6 beds. Accessories: TV, air conditioning, washing machine.
Lido San Giovanni is, without a doubt, the first beach that is immediately after the gates of the old city, located on the Gallipolino promenade, near the town, the clubs and street vendors selling food and cold drinks during all hours of the day.
The stretch of coast that surrounds Lido San Giovanni is characterized by fine sand and crystal clear waters of modest depth, which make it easier for everyone to enjoy the sea, even for the little ones who enjoy carefree on the shore.
The area has the same natural and landscape features of the entire coastal stretch of the Gallipolina area, confirming the presence of crystal clear and almost always calm waters, also due to the beneficial action of the north wind, as well as a golden sand colored with bright colors umbrellas and sun beds that remain open all day, until the last ray of sunshine before sunset.
From time to time it is possible to see small rocks that mostly resemble smooth and dark-colored stones on which it is easy to see crabs and other small marine animals that walk between one wave and another.
Gallipoli remains one of the most sought-after and popular destinations for spending the summer holidays in Salento, whether you are a group of young friends in search of the wildest fun, whether you want to travel with your family and with children in tow. What is striking about this town on the Ionian side is its sparkling, the aromas that characterize it, which in the summer range from the algae that the undertow leaves in the sun, to the scents of the sauces that prepare the various restaurants and flood the alleys of the old part, but also the smell of popcorn, cotton candy, crepes, which come from the various stalls on Corso Roma.
A trip to Gallipoli always has its own reason, in any season, but we know that summer is the period in which it is easier to cut out a parenthesis, a break, a stop time to fully enjoy one's time free. Gallipoli is sea, it's boundless beaches, it's relaxation, but it's also a meeting point for young people who come from all over Italy and beyond.
There are many places of entertainment, ranging from discos, to equipped beaches that offer the chance to relax and bask in the sun during the day to have a tan to make envy and in the evening turn into real open-air discos, with lots of evenings with dj sets and cocktails to go go.
The part of Gallipoli that rises beyond the jetty that connects the two areas of the city is an intense world, an explosion of colors, scents, sounds that has no equal. The alleys of the old city are a succession of emotions that take the form of villas and noble palaces, but also in characteristic dwellings that exude simplicity and modesty, with the clothes hanging out to wave in the sun, or the chairs stuffed on the door waiting for drops on fresh to welcome the local elders, who observe the world with folded arms and a smile, greeting with nods of the head.
If you do not care to learn and live the most transgressive and commercial part of the city, but prefer to immerse yourself in the silence and quiet beauty of its monuments and historic buildings, Gallipoli offers a world to see
Like any self-respecting southern town, Gallipoli is obviously not far behind in terms of delicacies and typical dishes that draw on the seafaring tradition, made of fresh fish and simple foods, but with bright and decisive flavors, with unique mixtures.
Dining here means tasting dishes that pay tribute to Gallipoli cuisine, made mainly of good fresh fish, cooked in unusual ways that highlight the taste.

View out the front window, 7 a.m. Snow is expected to continue throughout the day.
Our first croci of the year. Don't they look cheerful?
I've missed a few posts — Friday flash, my monthly post for the Merry-Go-Round Tour, my Monday gratitude post. I was off spending time with my family and relaxing, as one does on holiday weekends — or should, anyway.
Today, it's back nose-to-grindstone as I juggle three different paying work projects, finishing a novella, outlining a novel, and making notes on some other series ideas. Also, I shall resume blogging; expect a post Thursday about the latest novelette I've put up for sale. Tomorrow, the next time management series post will be up.
What have you been up to? Any fun over the weekend?
I used to post flash once a week. There's a group being organized that'll post flash fiction on Fridays. (Not a new idea — Twitter has a #FlashFriday tag, and Chuck Wendig periodically does flash challenges on Fridays.) I'm trying to decide whether to join in.
Do you like reading fiction in a blog? Does it encourage you to read more? Or would you rather see other types of posts?
Today's a lovely day — high 60s, low 70s, sunny with no thunderstorm on the horizon yet. It's rained almost every day for the past month, which means the plants are green, the weeds are blooming, and the ground is soft. In other words, today would be a perfect day to be outside.

La Jornada – Risk of conflict between Russia and Turkey over the grain pact
Moscow. A complex and increasingly dangerous situation in itself has emerged since Russia suspended its participation in the "grain pact" in response to what it calls a Ukrainian attack on its naval base in Sevastopol, Crimea, last Saturday, while Turkey and The United Nations (UN) continued to approve the departure of grain cargo ships from Ukrainian ports this Monday.
During the day, the parties involved gave contradictory information that does not allow us to know exactly what is happening, but the risk that the ambiguity will cause a direct conflict between Russia and Turkey, a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), is very high. , to the extent that the defense ministers of both countries, Russia's Serguei Shoigu and Turkey's Hulusi Akar, spoke on the phone again for the second day in a row.
President Vladimir Putin from Sochi on Monday evening defined what Russia wants at this moment: "We are not saying that we are canceling our participation in this operation (grain pact). We say we will stop it. The UN (not to mention Turkey) is very actively working on this and we appreciate it. That's why they should talk to Ukraine and make it commit that there will be no more threats to civilian ships and supply ships of the Russian Federation."
A few hours earlier, through the Anadolu agency of the Turkish government, news arrived from Istanbul that on the morning of October 31, six ships with grain sailed from Ukrainian ports to the Netherlands, Algeria, Djibouti, Egypt and Turkey.
The joint coordination center – with representatives of Turkey, Ukraine and the UN, without those from Russia – also approved for this Monday 14 more routes and schedules, 10 departures of cargo ships and 4 empty ones going to Ukrainian ports with grain. They sent the notification in question to Moscow, but without asking its opinion.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whom the Turkish official press calls "the great architect of the grain pact", used the situation to add credit and emphasized: "With joint efforts, we managed to alleviate the food crisis in the world. And at this moment when Russia is acting indecisively, because the pact did not bring her the same benefits, we will continue to make determined efforts in the interests of all humanity."
The Kremlin spokesman, Dimitri Peskov, replied to the Turkish president, without mentioning him: "When Russia mentions that it is impossible to guarantee the safety of navigation in these areas, a pact like the one for grains is not feasible and takes on a much more risky character. , dangerous and without guarantees". He certainly did not say that Russia is ready to sink every cargo ship sailing in the Black Sea without its approval.
Moscow continued to make moves through its permanent representative to the UN, Vasiliy Nebenzija, who stated in New York that "the attack on the Sevastopol naval base ended the humanitarian dimension of the Black Sea food initiative."
The diplomat warned: "Considering that the humanitarian corridor has been used for military purposes and that the Black Sea is a combat zone, we cannot allow the ships to sail freely without our inspection and we will be forced to take our own measures to audit and control the freighters that are the coordination center authorized without our approval."
Nebenzja expected that "Russia will soon announce its conclusions and approaches regarding the grain pact."
And the Russian Ministry of Defense later, before Putin's opinion became known, issued a statement repeating Moscow's initial position: "Until the situation regarding the terrorist act committed by Ukraine on October 29 against warships and civilians is clarified infrastructure of Sevastopol, navigation is suspended through the security corridor" (Black Sea Initiatives).
At the same time, the military unit does not say how it will prevent such navigation and limits itself to pointing out that "in the current conditions, the safety of any ship cannot be guaranteed until the Ukrainian side agrees not to use that route for the military", by which Kyiv implies that Kyiv would have to acknowledge the authorship of the drone attack attributed to him by Moscow.
In the context of this tension between Russia on the one hand and Turkey and the UN on the other, ten Ukrainian cities were bombed with fifty cruise missiles, which additionally affected the country's energy infrastructure and other civilian facilities.
In Kyiv, according to the mayor of the capital, Vitali Klitschko, "350,000 apartments were left without electricity and 80 percent of the population without running water" due to the bombing of the power plant. Around 8 pm local time, "270,000 apartments are still without electricity, and 40 percent without water."
Ukraine's military claims to have shot down 40 Russian cruise missiles, which, if true – as impossible to verify as any information about the military successes of either side – would give an idea of the scale of the missile and drone attacks, when the prime minister, Denys Shmyhal, admitted that at least 18 energy facilities were damaged.

Q: Terraform read single-item list In terraform's documentation it states:

A single item list of HLS ingest information

And then, a nested value of:

A list of the ingest endpoints

How can I get the first item entry of the list of endpoints?

A: Since the resource was not provided, we will assume the example in the documentation:
resource "aws_media_package_channel" "kittens" {
  channel_id  = "kitten-channel"
  description = "A channel dedicated to amusing videos of kittens."
}

Given that resource, we can access the exported resource attribute with the normal namespace of aws_media_package_channel.kittens.hls_ingest. Since this is a single item list containing a map, we would then access aws_media_package_channel.kittens.hls_ingest[0].ingest_endpoints. You stated that you want the first element of this nested list, and therefore with the customary syntax for the zeroth element:
aws_media_package_channel.kittens.hls_ingest[0].ingest_endpoints[0]

where you can then access values of that map by referencing the key e.g. url as per normal.

Testimonies - Riley Gardner Memorial Service Co.
My name is Janna D. and I would like to extend my gratitude for a job well done on my father's headstone.
It didn't seem right for me to merely complain; as I did without expressing my gratitude when the final product was delivered.
Our entire family was extremely pleased with the end product and only now, can we appreciate the extended wait time for a custom headstone.
I had the pleasure of meeting (setters) when the headstone was set. They were professional and yet personal which made the entire process come full circle. Communication is vital for success in any aspect of life.
Thank you for the follow-through and magnificent headstone for a wonderful man I call….Dad!
Thank you for the beautiful work that you did on my husband's marker.
My sons and I were so proud to see the beautiful stone engraved with such love and care.
He would be so proud.
Posted By: The family of O. J. "Corky" M.
I just can't express my appreciation enough for the creation of the beautiful headstone for my daughter. So many compliments. Also, special thanks for the payment plan. This final one is kind of bittersweet..
Riley, Thank you and your staff. The monument was set late Wednesday afternoon. We have now seen it and are very pleased at how beautifully it meets our expectations and design. It is truly one of a kind, and I adore the birdbath pictures! God bless your family and company.
Posted By: Sue & Charlie R.
Dear Sirs, Thank you all for a job "well done" reseating my head stone and my wife's head stone. Thank you "VERY" much.
I just wanted to take this opportunity to say "Thank You" for not only the beautiful headstone for 'T'+2, but also the loving care it was placed there with. Also, thank you for getting it there so soon. It will indeed be there for this memorial on the 27th.
Recently you prepared the head stone for our son, G. F. The workmanship is superb and I am so pleased. All who work there were most courteous and helpful and I wanted to Thank You. God Bless all of you.
I would like to take the opportunity to thank you and acknowledge what a great bunch of people you have gathered to represent your fine company.
I appreciate the time taken to make sure that the marker for my Great Grandfather, William Wright K, who had gone without for these many years will be finally laid in the …Cemetery.
My mother and I had the opportunity to drop by late one afternoon, at a point in which we were late and ya'll stayed to speak to us……we knew this was the company we wanted to do business with.
Finally after speaking to (employees) we were able to complete the design and set the order, and a long standing deed that has needed to be done. Thank you one and all.
Posted By: Sincerely, Phillip W. A.
Several of us visited H. Cemetery yesterday to see the monument you created for our mother and father. …. It certainly encompasses all the detail that N. had strived to achieve. There were many compliments from my husband and daughters, and your company has worked diligently to provide us with a monument which blends with the existing older ones, yet is surely unique in its design.
Thanks you for your patience with us in what became a very long process of preparing their old photo for the laser transfer.

When exploring Western medicine sometimes there are ancient remedies that are beginning to be used in the Western world. One of these is milk thistle. It is being tested now in the U.S. to see if it's safe and effective in many aliments. It's also being tested in certain kinds of cancer, to lower cholesterol, and reducing blood sugars in type 2 diabetes. If milk thistle is found to be of use in cancer patients it could eliminate the need for stem cell transplant with the side effects of stem cells.
Milk thistle is recorded as being used as far back as the 4th Century B.C. It was used to treat liver aliments. In the last 40 years there has been testing and research on Milk Thistle that has confirmed that it helps the liver and the body against all types of damage. European doctors prescribe Milk Thistle. Milk Thistle is being proven to be helpful in liver problems and is being tested to see if it may help fight cancer. Studies done to use it to lower blood sugar in Type 2 Diabetics found it lowered cholesterol in the patients. But, there has been no test to prove that it lowers cholesterol in non-diabetics. Milk Thistle side effects are few. Some experience stomach upset or diarrhea.
This is just the side effects for the transplant itself; there are also many side effects to the conditioning process for the procedure, such as: Nausea, vomiting, mouth sores and hair loss. There are even side effects to the preservative used in the freezing of the stem cells. If milk thistle is proven to be effect in fighting cancer and is as effective as stem cell therapy, the side effects of alternative therapy for these cancers will be reduced to stomach upset and maybe diarrhea.

As soon as this happens, it's 'over' for stocks: Stockman
Published Tue, Mar 22 20169:52 AM EDT Updated Tue, Mar 22 201610:37 AM EDT
Leanne Miller@LeanneBMiller
Stockman: Recession nearing in this unsafe world
Stocks are in for a steep and treacherous decline because of the Federal Reserve's policies, Reagan administration aide David Stockman says.
"I would liken the Fed to a blindfolded arsonist. Armed, dangerous and lost," the former director of the Office of Management and Budget told CNBC's "Fast Money" traders on Monday.
"They can't possibly believe that they're going to wait out this cycle at zero interest rates at an economy that's at peak debt," he said. "I think they'll hike one more time this year or they'll make an excuse why they can't."
Stockman said a decline in earnings growth, global headwinds, mismanagement by the European Central Bank and lack of leadership from the Fed have led to a market resting on thin ice.
"As soon as the markets realize that the Fed and the ECB are out of ammunition, it's over," Stockman said. "I think we're in an extremely unsafe world — we've never been here before."
The proof of that uncertainty can be found in Asia, he said. Japan, China and South Korea all saw exports drop by double digits in the first two months of a years.
"The world economy is drifting into recession and we are not decoupled," said Stockman. "We are not exempt."
The S&P 500 has staged a massive 13 percent comeback since February's low but Stockman said broad swings are nothing but the beginning of a long and burdensome bear market.
"We're still in no man's land. We've had a dead cat bounce. It's been strong," Stockman said. "The only thing left is to bury the cat!"
Stockman's target on the S&P 500 is 1,300, a 37 percent drop from Tuesday's open.
"Global deflation is going to turn into a recession worldwide," said Stockman. "They're out of ammo to deal with it."

The Green Hell opens its gates – the Porsche TAG Heuer Esports Supercup at Nürburgring.
The Porsche TAG Heuer Esports Supercup is rapidly approaching its finale. After last week's smouldering action through the Eau Rouge at Spa-Francorchamps, the legendary Nürburgring – or "Green Hell" – is next. A circuit that needs no further introduction. Its straights invite competitors to high-speed duels. While in its bends, we can expect decisive manoeuvres. Which simracer will be the fastest to weave their way through its devilish sections? Even before the starting flag, one thing is already clear: with a demanding circuit like Nürburgring and the highly talented driver line-up, we are poised for a genuine motorsport spectacle.
The tension rises.
Anyone following the events of recent weeks will have quickly noticed that the simracers are improving their performance from race to race. And neither the skill of the individual drivers nor the general thrill level appear to be diminishing. We are at the mid-point of the second half of the Porsche TAG Heuer Esports Supercup and, therefore, at an important crossroads. The Brit Sebastian Job from Red Bull Racing Esports remains a key player in the tussle for the top of the table. He has so far managed to defend his lead against talented simracers such as VRS Coanda Simsport driver, Joshua Rogers, and the Spaniard Alejandro Sánchez from MSI eSports. It remains to be seen who will prevail in the next race at Nürburgring. Suspense is mounting.
Previous racing action.
Silverstone, Road Atlanta, Brands Hatch, Spa-Francorchamps – and now the Nürburgring Nordschleife. We have witnessed some superb racing on our epic journey to the season finale in Monza. Gripping duels have been fought on the track. Important points awarded - and secured. Who will ultimately emerge victorious from the Green Hell remains to be seen, increasing our anticipation of the surprises and driving highlights at Nürburgring.
The engines are warming up.
A new date has been set for the second warm-up: on Saturday 5 September, the engines will start again at Nürburgring in the Eifel mountains. The next race of the 2020 season promises to be a genuine motorsport highlight. And as always, we will experience it live. On the Porsche YouTube and Twitch channels. Of course, all motorsport enthusiasts, simracing fans and Porsche enthusiasts are welcome to join our live stream. #jointherace #simracing

If I was to purchase an Heed Obelisk Si, Power Source, and External DAC, what streaming devise match do you recommend for a computer based system?
A lot of streaming devices already have DACs onboard. It would help to know what software/file formats you are using on the PC and do you want direct connect, wireless or ethernet connection between PC and hifi? Budget?
I have been away for a while. I plan to use only FLAC files. I will probably do an Ethernet connection, but I would appreciate advice on direct connect and wireless. My budget is between £500-750. Thanks for your help.
There is no difference in sound quality between ethernet or wireless if they are both delivering data packets without interruption, it is more to do with your installation and whether the wireless signal works well or whether ethernet is easy to do. Audio at all resolutions needs very low bandwidth (typically 10Mbps is ample) in the scheme of the things. Homeplugs are a good solution if hard wiring or wireless is an issue.
A lot will depend on how you want to control all of this - tablet/smartphone/PC/MAC. Most dedicated streamers have a poor graphical interface on the box so tablets are a better method of controlling your streaming.

UPDATED: Mon., May 29, 2017, 9:19 p.m.
Frank Deford, the award-winning sports writer and commentator whose elegant reportage was a staple for years at Sports Illustrated and National Public Radio, has died. He was 78.
He died Sunday in Key West, Florida, his family said Monday.
Deford was a six-time Sports Writer of the Year and a member of the National Association of Sportscasters and Sportswriters Hall of Fame. He wrote and spoke with a lyrical touch and this month retired from NPR's "Morning Edition" after 37 years as a contributor.
Deford called the award the one he is most proud of.
His long profiles, covering all corners of sports, were for years a showcase in Sports Illustrated.
He also dressed up in a more literal way, always sharply attired and cutting a debonair figure at 6-foot-4 with his shock of dark hair and thin mustache.
Deford was a prolific book author, including several novels, and contributed commentaries to HBO's "Real Sports" program and hosted documentaries on the cable network.
Among Deford's books were "Heart of a Champion," which chronicles the career of athletes who appeared on Wheaties boxes, and a biography of tennis great Bill Tilden.
And he understood why the games have such a hold on so many.
Deford grew up in Baltimore and graduated from Princeton. He joined HBO Sports in 1995 and his first report chronicled life in Augusta, Georgia, outside the Masters. It was called "The American Singapore." He delivered 119 segments for the show and was a feature reporter at Wimbledon in the 1990s.
Bryant Gumbel, host of "Real Sports," said Deford joked with him a week ago about finally being released from the hospital.
Deford is survived by his wife, the former model Carol Penner; two children; and two grandchildren.

Q: Thread Safe Class Library Design I'm working on a class library and have opted for a route with my design to make implementation and thread safety slightly easier, however I'm wondering if there might be a better approach.
A brief background is that I have a multi-threaded heuristic algorithm within a class library, that once set-up with a scenario should attempt to solve it. However I obviously want it to be thread safe and if someone makes a change to anything while it is solving for that to causes crashes or errors.
The current approach I've got is if I have a class A, then I create a number InternalA instances for each A instance. The InternalA has many of the important properties from the A class, but is internal an inaccessible outside the library.
The downside of this, is that if I wish to extend the decision making logic (or actually let someone do this outside the library) then it means I need to change the code within the InternalA (or provide some sort of delegate function).
Does this sound like the right approach?

A: It's hard to really say from just that - but I can say that if you can make everything immutable, your life will be a lot easier. Look at how functional languages approach immutable data structures and collections. The less shared mutable data you have, the simple threading will be.

A: Why Not?
Create generic class, that accepts 2 members class (eg. Lock/Unlock) - so you could provide

*

*Threadsafe impl (implmenetation can use Monitor.Enter/Exit inside)

*System-wide safe impl (using Mutex)

*Unsafe, but fast (using empty impl).

A: another way i have had some success with is by using interfaces to achieve functional separation. the cost of this approach is that you end up with some fields 'repeated' because each interface requires total separation from the others fields.
In my case I had 2 threads that need to pass over a set of data that potentially is large and needs as little garbage collection as possible. Ie I only want to pass change information from the first stage to the second. And then have the first process the next work unit.
this was achieved by the use of change buffers to pass changes from one interface to the next.
this allows one thread to work away at one interface, make all its changes and then publish a struct containing the changes that the other interface (thread) needs to apply prior to its work.
by doing this You have a double buffer ... (thread 1 produces a change report whilst thread 2 consumes the last report). If you add more interfaces (and threads) it appears like there are pulses of work moving through the threads.
This was based on my research and I have no doubt that there are better methods available now.
My aim when coming up with this however was to avoid the need for locks in the vast majority of code by designing out race conditions. the other major consideration is performance in garbage collection - which may not be an issue for you.
this way is all good until you need complex interactions between threads ... then you find that you start forcing the layout of your buffer structures for reuse to get around inheritance which in turn has an upkeep overhead.

A: A little more information on the problem to help...
The heuristic I'm using is to solve TSP like problems. What happens right at the start of each
calculation is that all the aspects that form the problem (sales man/places to visit) are cloned
so they aren't affected across threads.
This means each thread can change data (such as stock left on a sales man etc) as there are a number
of values that change during the calculation as things progress. What I'd quite like to do is allow
the checked such as HasSufficientStock() for a simple example to be override by a developer using the library.
Unforutantely at present however to add further protection across threads and makings some simplier/lightweight
classes I convert them to these internal classes, and these are the things that are actually used and cloned.
For example
class A
{
   public double Stock { get; }

   // Processing and cloning actually works using these InternalA's
   internal InternalA ConvertToInternal() {}
}

internal class InternalA : ICloneable
{
   public double Stock { get; set; }

   public bool HasSufficientStock() {}
}


Discussion in 'Pay Per Click' started by Larwee, Aug 31, 2006.
Google makes it very clear that you are not suppose to click on your own AdSense ads.
A woman has clicked on her own AdSense ads. Her AdSense account was suspended by Google and she is now suing Google for $250,000.00.
Theresa B. Bradley is a management consultant who lives in Washington, DC. She accuses Google of several counts of fraud and misrepresentation, including misrepresentation in commercial advertising, and of "willfull, wanton, fraudulent and malicious" conduct regarding AdSense. Her suit also says there is misrepresentation in interstate commerce.
Theresa B. Bradley doesn't claim that she didn't click her own ads. She said she did, but she did it to see if any competing products were being advertised.
As you know, she could have used the preview tool or other methods to do that without clicking on her own ads. But she clicked on the ads and says it is Google's fault that she did and she wants $250,000 for it because they suspended her account.
Bradley says Google caused her irreparable harm by damaging her reputation and the reputation of her products and services.
But there is more. It turns out she has also sued Yahoo. Information on that isn't available at the present time and Yahoo had no comment.
It is possible to arrive at a few conclusions with the first being that it sounds like an attempt to get some fast and easy money.
Her site is rather small and it is sounds almost like a joke to say that it took 100 hours to place the AdSense code on it.
She said Google caused her irreparable harm by damaging her reputation. She isn't doing a very good job of making herself look good by starting this lawsuit. It makes here look very bad.
It is difficult to see how she would have any chance of winning this suit.
Take a look at the article I linked to in my first post in this thread. Here it is again to make it easy http://oraclewatch.eweek.com/blogs/google_watch/archive/2006/08/31/12873.aspx See what you think and then express your thoughts here in this 5 Star thread.
This is from the bizarre and ridiculous files no? Being unfamiliar with the linked site, how much truth is likely to be in that article? If it is true, where on earth did she find a lawyer to prepare a lawsuit based on her own abuse of TOS? Maybe a young lawyer who wants some quick money from his client? Hired him from ebay?
Peter, the site I linked to is very well known, established and respected and is considered to be a reliable source.

Q: What function do I need in Wordpress to resolve the URL of the child categories of a custom taxonomy? I looked around and noticed many questions about this were asked already. But none had an answer I needed.
Below you find an php/html script of a page template in my own theme (I use them because of more functionality on corporate websites). That's NOT the problem. Works like a charm.
What does this script do?
It outputs all categories their featured image (via plugin 'Categories Images') under the taxonomy clients.
Works perfect!! That's not the problem.
The only LINE of code I need is mentioned in the PHP loop as a comment...
Could anyone please help me?

 <?php $args = array(
    'type'                     => 'post',

Religious Artifacts as a Way to Enter Hypnosis
Protestant, Catholic and New Age Artifacts Induce Hypnotism
There are many ways to enter a hypnotic state of consciousness. We call them methods of induction. There is arm levitation, progressive relaxation, handshake method, amnesia technique, shock technique, etc. One of the more traditional methods requires the subject to gaze upon an artifact of some sort. It could be a watch suspended as a pendulum. The principles are the same whether we are speaking of street hypnosis, golf hypnosis, smoking cessation or covert hypnosis. Or it could be a religious artifact such as a cross. We see this symbolism employed in many vampire films, wherein the cross is worn or held up as a barrier against evil. In films about Voodoo, the gris gris is produced to place a curse on an enemy. A Voodoo doll is an effigy of an enemy; thus the sticking of pins into the doll to produce torture or death at a distance. These are all religious artifacts carried to an extreme. We find these in abundance in religious book stores, whether Catholic, Protestant, or New Age.
While Protestant based bookstores will carry many versions of the Bible and many texts explaining the Bible, Catholic Book stores will also carry holy pictures, rosaries, crucifixes, kits for Extreme Unction, and Holy pictures. Some scholars think that Protestantism is influenced more by Plato, who mapped more of an abstract description of reality and that Catholicism is influenced more by Aristotle who accepted the senses and the concrete manifestation of reality. Both use the cross as a symbol of God. For the Christian, the cross evokes an attitude and reverence of emotion, a recall of Christ's dying to redeem mankind, so it carries a range of predictable responses. For the Catholic, the cross may be attached to a Rosary which has an intricate history. Or the Catholic may wear the medal of the Immaculate Conception. All of these artifacts may have been blessed by a priest or even by the Pope. These layered rituals add to the evocative power of the artifact. But the power of the artifact depends on the faith of the recipient. But what is faith?
Religious Artifacts Induce Hypnotism
Instead of trying to find rational reasons for what appears to be irrational choice, it may be more fruitful to listen to William James. In his Varieties of Religious Experience, James catalogs types of religious experiences. Some of these experiences are classified as healthy minded and some are classified as sick minded. To James, it is an experiential matter. Reason has little to do with it. There is no Divine privilege. One chooses on the basis of past experiences and how these experiences impact world view. To James, the criterion of a good religious belief is one that will get one through hard times. It is a belief system that is like a raft, on which one can get on board when all else is disintegrating. So, for James, religious belief is a personal matter and it has social and psychological efficacy. One looks at life goals and then selects beliefs that move one toward those life goals.
If faith is belief without proof, then what difference does it make what one believes. Aside from personal preference; all beliefs have one thing in common: they are without proof, without evidence. Belief is an open field. Humans have professed belief in sea monsters and devils, in life after death and extinction, in unicorns and angels. So what causes one to select one form of belief over another? If I profess to a literal belief in Biblical stories; how is this belief system different from asserting that the Quran or Bhavagita? What is the basis of selection of one religion over another? Why is the selection not random? A mere toss of a coin? Well, believers will often say that their faith is a gift from God...that one cannot give themselves faith; one cannot earn faith. Very well, but if this is the case then all religious beliefs can assert the same...even contradicting God given articles of faith proclaimed by other religions. How can one select one set of religious beliefs over another? What are the criteria of their selection? Faith, reason or a combination of the two? Could it be that covert hypnosis holds the key to understanding what we usually take for granted, the hypnotic power of the religious artifact?
Thomas Aquinas claimed that reason would take us to great heights, but that to go beyond the limits of reason, faith must enter. Christians have the guidance of the Holy Spirit working through the church, giving counsel and direction in matters of faith. Duns Scotus thought that faith and reason were like parallel lines that never crossed and Augustine maintained that faith and reason interpenetrated like entangled vines, not subject to separation. Yet all these layouts for faith and reason avoid answering how one must go about making a selection of one pattern over another. If the believer says that faith is given, that it is not up to us...that God ordains who will become faith driven. If this is the case, then everyone is right and everyone is wrong, for massive contradiction is implicit in such a schema. And, if a Diety is the agency behind the random selections of belief, then the Diety contradicts itself. But whichever path one chooses, there remains the response to religious artifacts, to the imagery, the traditions, the shapes and forms of consciousness and its manifestation in the physical realm...the cross, the rosary, the holy picture.
Artifact Quality Shapes Hypnotic Power
We start with a simple cross made of plastic, the manufacturer 's name emblazoned on the backside of the artifact. Compare the hypnotic power of this crude icon to that of a cross carved out of a single block of wood by a monk who is a master craftsman. Add to this that the fact that the wooden cross has been blessed by the Pope. For the practicing Catholic the second cross is taken seriously, the care invested in it by the artist is evident and appreciated. The blessing is honored. All these symbolic layers work in harmony. And if we extend the metaphoric power, let us assume that there are some artifacts that are made out of gold and are encrusted with precious stones. Here we have a wedding of art, commercial value, and religious symbolism, integrated. For the believer and some who are not believers, the religious artifact elicits a hypnotic state as surely as any hand technique used to induce hypnosis.
In your search for applications of hypnosis, please be aware that variations of the same process are indicated by changing word order and through the substitution on nouns and noun phrases or verbs and verb phrases. The basic process of induction is that of creating the conditions for altered states of consciousness that may result in: hypnosis tapes, insomnia hypnosis, erotic hypnosis, stop smoking hypnosis, hypnosis to stop smoking, smoking cessation and quit smoking hypnosis

John Calvin Jackson (May 26, 1919, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – December 9, 1985, Encinitas, California) was an American jazz pianist, composer, and bandleader.
He was born in Philadelphia in 1919 to Harry and Margaret Jackson. His mother was a concert singer in Philadelphia. Jackson played piano from childhood, having lessons with private teacher. He studied at Juilliard and New York University.[1]
At the beginning of his career Jackson worked with Frankie Fairfax. From 1943–47 he worked in Hollywood as an assistant director of music for MGM.
In 1947 he recorded with Phil Moore and also as a solo pianist for Discovery Records. In Summer 1948, he played with a singer Mildred Bailey and a dancer Avon Long at Café Society in New York City.[2] In 1950, he moved to Toronto, where he often played on television and radio. Over the course of the 1950s and early 1960s he released several LPs for labels such as Columbia Records. In 1957 he returned to Los Angeles, where he continued to work as a composer for film and television. He also arranged for Ray Charles at one point, receiving an arrangement and co-producer credit for Charles' 1964 release "Sweet & Sour Tears" (ABC-Paramount).
By the early 1980s, he had moved to San Diego County, where he lived in semi-retirement in the Point Loma neighborhood, giving music lessons on a piano in his apartment. In 1984 he sat in as a guest at the Sunday night jam sessions Jeannie and Jimmy Cheatham hosted at the Bahia resort on Mission Bay, playing piano and harmonica between sets and occasionally with the band.
He was working on arrangements for a 31-piece concert jazz orchestra in Point Loma when he developed a heart ailment and was taken to the hospital. He died on November 28, 1985 at age 66.[1]
