Jeremy Beach DirecTV: Colorado Wildfire Victim Told He Owes $400 For Destroyed Satellite Dish
By Rebecka Schumann @RebeckaSchumann
A victim of the Colorado wildfire was recently told he owes DirecTV $400 for lose of equipment after his house burned down. Above: Schad Dohl watches a wall of fire as it rages through Black Forest, Colo.
Black Forest wildfire victim Jeremy Beach lost his home and most of his possessions in the ongoing blaze in Colorado that killed two, destroyed over 15,000 acres of land and 379 homes but apparently, DirecTV hasn't received that memo.
Beach, a nearby resident of Colorado Springs, Colo., where the blaze was most damaging, claims that he recently received a shocking admission from DirecTV while trying to cancel his service following the natural disaster. According to a report from The Gazette, Beach was told he owes $400 for destroying a satellite dish and two receivers.
"I couldn't believe it," said the homeowner. "I had lost everything and they acted like they could care less." Beach claims that he has little left after the blaze, only escaping with his pregnant wife, 5-year-old son, two dogs and a few personal items. "I need that money to rebuild my life: cups, plates, shoes, a new bike for my kid," he said.
The homeowner claims upon hearing DirecTV's request for payment, he hung up the phone in anger after the operator suggested he attempt to get his insurance company to cover the costs. "I tried to explain that a couple hundred dollars is nothing to them but a lot to me," said Beach. "I need that money."
DirecTV responded to the allegations Friday, telling NBC that the operator's actions were "wrong" and claiming that the company does their best to assist customers dealing with the repercussions of natural disasters. "We are contacting the customer to apologize and assure him and his family that we will do everything we can to help them through this difficult time," said DirecTV spokeswoman, Jade Ekstedt.
According to The Gazette report, DirecTV has a history of being less than compassionate towards customers affected by wildfires. The cable company reportedly told residents of Waldo Canyon and Mountain Shadow, Colo. that they were also responsible for equipment costs in June 2012.

Q: IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory while accessing an Excel file I am working on a VBA code which calls a python script saved at desktop. This is my piece of VBA code.
Shell "cmd /k C:\Python27\python.exe C:\Users\ashish.baboo\Desktop\UKT-SL-Ashish\Cleaning-Tools\Old-Geocode.py"
waitTill = Now() + TimeValue("00:00:40")
While Now() < waitTill
DoEvents

This Python script loads addresses in an excel file placed at desktop. When i run python script directly, It executes perfectly. But when i am running VBA code, Python script opens but gives me an error that excel file is not available. Here is my code of Python script:
 import xlrd
import geocoder
import openpyxl
from openpyxl import load_workbook
location = "C:\\Users\\ashish.baboo\\Desktop\\UKT-SL-Ashish\\Cleaning-Tools\\1.xlsx"
workbook = xlrd.open_workbook(location)
sheet = workbook.sheet_by_index(1)

Rows = sheet.nrows
Cols = sheet.ncols
data = [[sheet.cell_value(r,c) for c in range(Cols)] for r in range(Rows)]

wb = load_workbook('1.xlsx')
ws1 = wb.get_sheet_by_name("Locations")

for i in range(1,Rows):
    add = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 19).value
    cadd = geocoder.google(add  , language = "en" , key = "AIzaSyBsiH6LubuA9dn1s97UsUcesQRw71isBuo")
    print(i , cadd.latlng , cadd.quality ,cadd.country)
    S_no = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 1)
    O_Housenumber = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 3)
    O_Street = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 4)
    O_City = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 5)
    O_County = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 6)
    O_State = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 7)
    O_Postal = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 8)
    O_Country = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 9)
    Latitude = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 10)
    Longitude = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 11)
    Accuracy = ws1.cell(row = i+1, column = 12)
    S_no.value = i
    O_Housenumber.value = cadd.housenumber
    O_Street.value = cadd.street
    O_City.value = cadd.city
    O_County.value = cadd.county
    O_State.value = cadd.state_long
    O_Postal.value = cadd.postal
    O_Country.value = cadd.country_long
    Latitude.value = cadd.lat
    Longitude.value = cadd.lng
    Accuracy.value = cadd.quality

    wb.save('1.xlsx')

I already tried many solutions but was not successful. Kindly suggest how to resolve it ?

A: This line:
wb = load_workbook('1.xlsx')

relies on the program knowing where to look for the file. If you are firing up Python from VBA then the working directory will almost certainly be different. So your Python program needs to know the full filepath. You can either hard-code it in the program, or you can pass it in to the program from the command line.

A: use absolute path instead of relative path will do the trick!

The more I work with our clients on the principles and execution of an effective inbound marketing campaign, the more I realize that this new way of driving sales is forcing us to rethink how we prospect and sell our products and services. The internet is changing the game, and that change is already in progress. The notion of dropping your current strategy and abandoning antiquated routines isn't a necessity yet, but it's coming. There's no question that companies in every industry need to start that gradual transition to an inbound marketing campaign. At the very least, businesses should be in the preparation stages, coming to terms with the knowledge that the internet is changing the way they drive sales for their organization.
The largest factor for inbound marketing is the change in how we gain prospects. It's about attracting them, rather than forcing yourself on them. This change means the initial groundwork of the sales process is a complete 180 from what it used to be. No one wants to tolerate your sales reps harassing them anymore, so quit that bad habit immediately. The fastest way to do this is by making everything customers want and need available to them exactly when they start looking for it, on their timetable rather than your sales representatives.
Inbound marketing, and the advanced software that manages the campaigns, is all about selling in an approachable, organic way. By showing up in your potential customers' search results as they search online for your products or services, you're getting the rare opportunity to appear right when you're needed. Giving your prospects relevant content, updated information, white papers, technical specs, case studies and general data on the product or service they are looking for is akin to offering free appetizers to entice them into a full meal. Gone are the days of teasing and withholding information. Instead, let them know you can fill their need, backing it up with real data and case studies. Chances are they will reach out with some questions, which is the ultimate beginning of a sales process.
Not sure how this concept would work into your sales process? Here's an example: "Thank you for visiting our website after typing centrifugal pump supplier into Google, Mr. Engineer! Here are the technical specs on the ½ HP pump you are interested in. Oh, and here is a case study of a real world application of that model being used in the pharmaceutical industry. Please fill out this contact form and we will get right back to you". Your prospective customer will be wowed by your wealth of information, the fact that you magically knew what he was looking for, your industry expertise, and most importantly, your eagerness to help. Doesn't that sound easier than cold calling 1,467 prospects every week?
Does all of this sound too easy? It's not. In fact, we do it for our clients every day and their businesses revenue grows as a direct result of it. That is the start of the standard sales process in 2016 and beyond. Ask yourself, are you showing up where your potential customers are looking? Are you giving your company the positive image it deserves? Are you using the web to begin your sales process in a way that attracts the most customers?
Here at Page One, we know that Inbound Marketing is the new way to sell. We don't doubt its power, because we see it work every day, and we're committed to showing our clients just how effective inbound marketing software can be. These sales philosophies are the future, and the new standard of doing business. There's no better time to get started!

Major Pillinger and the Great War
Researching the role my Grandfather took in the Great War is still an on-going project.
Going back to 1913, Major Pillinger was obliged to retire from the Tenth (PWO) Royal Hussars in May of that year, after the Regiment had been in South Africa for a little over twelve months, under the "Time Expired" rules of the military, having served 35 years. The Regiment, having moved from India to Bloemfontein in 1912, had now moved on to Potchefstroom. A letter published in the XRH Gazette of October 1913 from Major Pillinger, now in civi- street reads:
For the first time I appear as a correspondent of the Gazette, and do so with somewhat dubious assurance. The question occurs – can this pen, which has now alas, no place on the table where it reposed for so long, and where it could note and comment upon those incidents which made, or are making the Regiment's history – find topics which will interest your readers. Hitherto the pen in question has written in the arrogant first person, plural, which style often without reason, demands, if it does not command, attention. Herefrom, the humble and objectionable Ergo must replace the regal We, and the hope is now expressed that you will give the writer credit for his attempts to eliminate it from his communications when to him practicable.
The first subject chosen is purely a personal one, addressed to every Officer, N> C. Officer and man of the Regiment, for which no better term suggests itself than:
A RETROSPECT
I wonder, had I been the most self- analytical of men, whether it would be possible to convey to you, in cold words, the feelings that possessed me on the night of Wednesday the 28th May when it was my lot, the saddest of all lots, to have to say "Goodbye" at what was announced in the programme as "A Farewell Bonfire Concert for Major Pillinger".
Subjugating all other sensations was one of intense gratitude to all who were present on the occasion, who by their attendance inspired the conviction that their esteem and good wishes would follow me in my exile from the Regiment. Sitting here, in far-away Cairo, it is my ardent wish to assure all my old comrades of all ranks, that my intensity of thanks has not, and will not diminish; that the scene of that concert between the Officers' and Sergeants' messes, will never fade from my happy recollections. Happy because it formed the best and most consolatory antidote in an episode which was otherwise lamentable.
My thanks are now repeated to Colonel Barnes, my Commanding Officer; to Captain Peto who directed the admirable and talented concert party; to my comrades who formed the party; to the clever, if small, band who helped so largely to make the concert the success it was, and to every Officer and man who made my life so pleasant during my service, and my departure from amongst them a memory which will ever be recalled with pride.
Never can the last day with you all be forgotten; I recall, with mingled feelings, how the little band, (as band) turned out and played that saddest of all airs "Auld Lang Syne", how my old comrades awaited my passage past their lines and showed their farewell good wishes' and how ever Officer and some of my friends the N. C. Officers and men appeared at Potchefstroom railway station to say personally their last goodbyes. The train, as so frequently happens on such occasions, was inopportunely late enhancing the trials of parting, but at last it appeared, the last hand-shake was accomplished, and it was only left to brood moodily in the knowledge that my final severance with the Regiment had been consummated. That appeared the end of all things as far as I was concerned as a Tenth Hussar. Now the title I must assign to myself is that of an "Old Comrade", and great consolation is derived from the knowledge that the next best thing to being an active Hussar is the claim of being an "X.R.H. Old Comrade". In that role it is my hope that meetings with very many comrades will be possible in the comparatively near future.
I must admit to write a farewell to my old friends, Mr Atherley and the band, who were fulfilling an engagement at Johannesburg, when I left. It is my prideful reflection that between myself and the members of the band, the most cordial relations existed, and many thanks are given to those who rendered me so much assistance, by their contributions to the Gazette. Amongst these Corporal Mitchell, when in charge of the hot-weather band at Pindi, was prominent.
In conclusion, accept this assurance that the warmth of my feelings for the Regiment, and all connected with it, will be retained at a temperature even higher than that of the concert bonfire, which was so skilfully constructed by Sergt. O'Connell and his skilful Pioneers, and which compelled the withdrawal to remote distances from it, of the audience who occupied the seats around it.
R. PILLINGER
Some time shortly after the concert, a fellow Officer, Pat Armstrong, wrote home to his mother in Ireland:
"We had a most painful day yesterday. Poor little Major Pillinger commonly known as Pilse our Quarter-Master who has been in the Regt 35 years became time expired & had to leave. It really was awfully sad as he is an absolute topper. We had a great farewell concert to him on Thursday night & then his farewell dinner on Friday & the poor little man went off yesterday afternoon. He was dreadfully upset & almost in tears but he's a real good plucked in & stood it manfully. I don't know what we will do without him we will miss him most awfully."
This letter was sent to me, from the archives at the University of Limerick, by researcher Anna-Maria Hajba, at the Glucksman Library, who came across it whilst establishing a website longwaytotipperary.ul.ie detailing the lives of the Armstrong family during the Great War. I am indebted to Anna-Maria.
On Tuesday June 3rd, 1913, a dinner of the 10th (P.W.O.) Royal Hussars Old Comrades Association was held at the Holborn Restaurant, where the toast to the Old Tenth was proposed by Major W.C.Cadogan. In his speech he said, after listing some exceptional non-commissioned Officers who had left the Regiment during past twelve months, ".. experience teaches however good a man is at his job, we always find someone to take his place. But there is one who is on the sea at the present moment coming home who is indeed difficult to replace. The Officer I refer to is Major Pillinger. It is almost impossible to realize what he has been to the Regiment all through the years. Of course you know what he was in India and Africa, and what he was to you at home. I cannot imagine what the mess will be like without Major Pillinger. "
In January 1914, and extract from a letter Major Pillinger wrote to the Editor of the Gazette from Cairo was published in the magazine. He wrote:
"Very soon after arriving, with a couple of Old Comrades, the acquisition of information respecting others ensued." He then goes on to list the lives of several Old Comrades.
Later in 1914, in the Gazette of July of that year, there appears a fulsome report of the proceedings of the Annual Gathering and Dinner of the Tenth (PWO) Royal Hussars Old Comrades Association, held at the Holborn Restaurant, on Tuesday May 14th 1914. Major Pillinger was back home and appears as a Guest:
The Editor goes on to list the Officers who attended as:
Major-General Viscount Downe K.C.V.O., C.B., C.I.E., PRESIDING
Present were: Major-Generals Sir J.P.Brabazon K.C.B., C.V.O., Combe C.B.,
Colonels Alexander D.S.O., Baird, Fisher-Childe, C.B., Hon J Napier, St Quinton, Spottiswood, Viscount Valentia C.B., M.V.O., M.P., Vaughan D.S.O., Wilson D.S.O.,
Majors Barry D.S.O., Lord Bellew, Hon. W.G Cadogan M.V.O., Crichton, Viscount Hampden, Hughes-Onslow, Sir J Milbanke, V.C., Pillinger, Poole, Waite, Sir M. Wilson, Bart., C.S.I. M.P.,
Captains de Tuyll, Gibbs, Greenwood, Hon G Portman, Lord G Scott, Grenfell, Earl of Gainsborough, Earl of Mayo, Lord Southampton, Sir W Bass, Bart., Hon. D. Pelham, Messrs. Dorrien-Smith, Chaplin, Bouch and Potter.
A telegram from the King was read at the dinner as follows:
"… will you convey my thanks to all members of the Old Comrades Association assembled, for their good wishes and loyal assurance."
GEORGE R.I. Colonel-in-Chief.
After the dinner Major Crichton proposed the toast to the "Old Tenth" and Major Pillinger was called upon to reply.
The next time Major Pillinger appears is in a letter again found in the Armstrong papers at the University of Limerick and kindly sent to me by
Anna-Maria Hajba. This was dated 12th March 1915: (It should be noted that all Officers and most men where known by a nick-name)
"My dear Pat. The sending of a card at Xmas was a very small matter compared with your letter, written so long ago as the 7th [?] Jan: its receipt was an unspeakable pleasure to me. The delay in acknowledgment arose from my absence from Cairo. I've been doing a bit of campaigning – a very modest bit you will say when you hear all about it. Despairing of getting a job at the front, I attempted to secure one with the Flying Corps here, as an observer, and failed on a/c of my ignorance of Arabic – (are you surprised to hear that my French, which was also a condition, was accepted without question?). then, hearing of the contemplated formation of a Camel Corps, I fired in another application, and was at once taken on. We were ordered to join within 24 hours, and off I went, mobilised at a place called Abu Sueir, 1400 camels, 800 Arabs, with an Indian NI [?] Regt of Imperial Service Troops as escort. It was an Alwar Regt, the most moderate unit I ever struck. Here my Hindustani came in useful, resulting in my appointment as Provost Marshal Interpreter and General utility man. We never came under actual fire – were at Nefise, not far from the scene of the fight, on morning of 3rd. The poor show of the Turks convinced the Govt that the maintenance of the Corps at its full strength was unnecessary, so it is reduced to 500 camels and a small personnel which does not justify my inclusion. We finally found ourselves at Ismailia, whence I returned here on Monday. In the meantime the Committee had determined that it is not in the interests of the Club to retain and [sic] Asst Sec, and pay him for doing nothing, consequently the present holder is given ye order of ye boot. The Secretary-ship of a club at Alexandria is becoming vacant and my application for that went in. There were legions of local applicants which were reduced to three of whom I was one, but the Committee of that Club, I learnt yesterday, have decided to defer the final selection, pending results of advts in "The Times" and other English papers; not being over-keen to stay in Egypt I shall not await further developments. Also I can, if I feel inclined, take over a job as Censor here, at the end of the month, but it does not appeal to me, so I've determined to return to England and take my chance of getting some sort of job with the Army there. It is the only thing in which my heart is. Probably I shall leave here on or about the 5th April, by a Bibling [?] boat, and my address will henceforth be the "Junior Army & Navy Club, Whitehall". You will have had eno' of me and my affairs so to other matters. In the papers which arrived by yesterday's mail is to be read Giblet's gazette as Major, Shaver as Lt Col, and tilgai [?] retaken on from the supernumerary list. I am wondering if he has rejoined: the last letter I had from him was written from Russia: he was serving with the Russian army, and very pleased with everything. Webb, the Vet of Pindi days was in the Club on Wednesday, going thro' from the Sudan to Alexandria, he told me Giblet is engaged to be married, to a lady of the same name. I have not seen it in any paper. I owe him a letter too, and must write today. All the dear lads are so good in writing to me. Their letters are so welcome, and so looked for. I am so glad you are having such valuable and I take it, enjoyable experience on the staff. How I long for meetings with you all, to hear from your lips, the things that you have done and seen, I pray you may never have such terrible times as the retreat furnished; it seems to me a pity that you are not all with the Regiment, which is certainly the most desirable thing in life. Clem, & Billy & Giblet are very sick because they are detained in England. What a pity it is that dear old Narcisse had to go home: it was good to see his name in despatches. How splendidly all Tenths have done. I've not heard a word of or from Brock, and wonder how he is getting on. Jon Vaughan is a C.B: Bungo a KCMG, and Hans [?] a Major Gen – all for good service in the field: each will, I'm sure, be accorded further honours before everything is finished. They are a trio impossible to beat. As you say, it is dreadful to reflect upon the terrible loss we've sustained – Pic, Willie, Rosie, Rabbit, Foureyes, Bob Drake – search the world o'er and you will not find more gallant soldiers, more lovable friends: always I am very sad when I think of them. The regiment will never be the same again. Luckily we have some very good boys coming on, by all accounts; they will no doubt live up to the old traditions and prove as good as their predecessors, but to an old "has-been" like me, that knowledge is poor comfort for the loss of the dear, kind comrades of so many years. Be sure Pat that my thoughts are ever with you, that my constant wish is, that you may come out of this terrible war safely: almost I am reduced to hoping that the Cavalry may not again be exposed to danger – but not quite – I want the Regiment to earn every glory which the war can yield. How I wish I were with it. Much love to you, dear Pat. Yours ever Pilse"
On 6 October 1915, Pat (Armstrong) notes in a letter to his mother:
"… they are starting a field force canteen here in a few days (about time too) & we ought to be able to get anything we want there. I hear that little Pilse is going to run it, so he'll get me all I want." On 9 October he repeats the news: "We ought to be well of [sic] now for stores as they are going to open the field force canteen on Monday on the beach. One can buy practically anything there I hear. It will be a great affair if they don't sell out in the first week like they did with the place they opened at Helles. I hear that little Pilse is running it so I expect it will be well done. It will be a great blessing to the men. They say that there is 20 thousand pounds worth of stuff there."
And on Tuesday 16 November Pilse writes to Pat from Kefalos:
"My dear Pat. Your letter of 30th Oct was received, on my return from Mudros, yesterday week: on Wednesday I went, hot foot, to Suvla, only to find that you had "cleared". I was very disappointed. But I ought not to be since the cause was your advancement to staff captain, you know how proud I felt on hearing that. I've been trying to see you this many a day. Last August we only just missed each other at Helles: I was there and was told by Jimmie Watson that you had left "about an hour ago" He saw you taking ship. I was there for ten days and you shot off on the third of them. I am not quite sure whether you are with the 87th or the 88th Bde: think the latter so address this accordingly. I've seen everyone except Long Un and Dofus. The latter wrote me the other day, from Anzac where he is adjutant of the Welsh Horse. I must try to get to him ere long. I am sorry to hear of the introduction of a KOG to command as I'm sure Giblet would do better with the Regiment than a stranger. We've tons of milk, but suppose you are not catering now. Do let me know if you want anything we have, and rely you will get it. Love to you Pat – and hope to see you soon. I am off to Suvla again, tomorrow. Yours ever, Pilse"
Major Pillinger is also mentioned in the following announcements in the London Gazette of June and August 1915. (Reference www.thelondongazette.co.uk)
Whilst I have been unable to confirm this yet, it would seem very likely that Major Pillinger had joined the 29th Division of the Army Service Corps.
To quote from the website of the Long, Long Trail, The British Army in the Great War,
"The 29th Division embarked at Avonmouth and went via Malta to Alexandria. On the 7th April 1915 On the 7th April the first units to arrive in Egypt bena ro re-embarked for the move to Mudros, the deepwater harbour at the island of Imbros that was going to be used as a forward base for the operations at Gallipoli. The Division landed at Capes Helles on Gallipoli on the 25th April 1915….."
On the nights 7th/8th January 1916 the Division was evacuated from Gallipoli and all units returned to Egypt. Orders were received there on the 25th February for a move to France.
There is however no evidence that Major Pillinger accompanied the Division back to France, and it would appear that he left the ASC and remained in the Middle East.
I also have no information about his appointment as ADC, as reported in the London Gazette.

Three students in the small rural parish of Buyaya in Eastern Uganda thanks to a number of volunteers.
The volunteers (who wish to remain anonymous) sponsored Jane, and siblings Junior and Esther to go secondary school. All three students will be boarding at their respective schools.
Junior and Esther recently lost their father who worked as a policeman. Without the income from their father, Esther and Junior had to leave school due to the expensive school fees. Both Esther and Junior are bright, intelligent young people.
Jane was forced to leave school due to ill health. Getting back to school proved to be very difficult due to the fees.

Apple's iPhone 5S went on sale in Japan on September 20, with electronics aficionados, including our own Mr. Sato, lining up days in advance in order to purchase one on launch day.
Obviously, you have to love your electronics to be willing to camp out on the sidewalk, especially with a typhoon hitting the Tokyo area right before the new model's release. Blogger Junichi Suzaki wondered if there might be something other than the promise of shiny new tech convincing people to spend multiple days and nights in line, though, and found a surprising motivation for the people at the head of the line.
Prior to the new iPhone's release, Suzaki headed out one evening in search of would-be iPhone purchasers. Sure enough, he found a queue of them in front of the Apple Store in Tokyo's upscale Ginza district, because if you have to sleep on the sidewalk, it may as well be a sidewalk in a swanky part of town.
The typhoon had just passed through Tokyo, and Suzaki was eager to talk to the person at the front of the line and find out what made him so determined to get his hands on the new iPhone that he'd been willing to endure the downpour.
Except, the first chair in the line was empty.
OK, in that case, Suzaki would talk to the second person in line! What motivation had kept him going through the deluge?
The second chair was also empty.
Given the notorious shyness of empty folding chairs, Suzaki made the judgment that neither would supply him with the insight he was seeking, and instead turned his attention to the person with the third spot in line, an engineer with the family name Shimazaki.
The two exchanged greetings, and Suzaki was surprised at how eager the engineer was to answer his questions. "Aren't you tired of being interviewed?" he asked the engineer.
We'd always assumed the people we saw lining up for electronics launch days were either students, telecommuters, or so keen to get their hands on the newest tech toys before anyone else that they took time off from work to line up. If Shimazaki had to be at work each afternoon, how did he hold onto a position so near the front of the line?
We've heard of drinking and fishing buddies, but this is a first for us. Shimazaki had come to camp out with the at-the-moment absent first two gentlemen in line, whom he'd met while lining up for the release of the latest iPad model.
Hmm….lining up for Apple's tablet, camping out for Apple's smartphone. Suzaki had spotted a pattern.
"So, you must really love the iPhone?" he asked the engineer.
"No, not really," he responded casually.
But, if Shimazaki wasn't a true iPhone believer, what was he waiting in line for?
"I'm here for the high-five," he explained, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
After taking a moment to try to wrap his head around this, Suzaki continued his line of questioning.
His smile as he related this was beyond description.
It appeared that, for Shimazaki, it really is was just about the high-five.
"But camera crews do come to these kind of things, don't they?" Suzaki asked.
"Yeah, and it's kind of a pain. We have to rehearse what to say to them. The reporters all assume we're diehard Apple fans, so we just kind of make up the sort of answers we figure they want to hear. We want to give the TV stations something to work with, you know," explained the worldly engineer.
During the conversation, the second person in line, a young man named Tamura, returned, and Suzaki took the opportunity to interview him as well.
"Are you friends with Mr. Shimzaki?" Suzaki asked.
"Yeah, we're launch day line-up buddies!" he responded.
Tamura revealed that he was, in fact, an iPhone user, restoring a bit of logic to the situation, before muddying the waters with his next comment.
Tamura's reason for camping out, could it also be…?
In short, rather than the phone, these guys are simply diehard high-five fans.
"Really, really fun," chimed in Shimazaki.
The two had a point. The excitement of everyone in line was starting to feel contagious, and blogger Suzaki found himself suddenly craving a high-five, too. Nonetheless, he kept his desire in check and continued the interview.
"But, don't you wish you could have been first in line?" he asked Tamura.
Seriously? Father and son were both camping out?
The elder Tamura wasn't kidding either, as he and his son had shown up 10 days before Suzaki's interview.
Frankly, the Tamuras surprised us all.
Truly, a touching example of patriarchal fealty.
"So, does your dad like the high-five too?" Suzaki asked.
"Yeah, really, really fun," echoed Shimazaki, again.
And that's when it sank in. People who aren't technophiles look at these lines for new electronics, do the math, and scratch their heads. Sure, the stores might sell out on launch day, and it might take a week or so for the next shipment to come in. But in order to avoid waiting an extra week, you line up seven, or ten, days in advance? It's a zero-sum game. Either way, you're waiting, right?
But that's missing the point. The real draw of camping out for launch day isn't some perceived time savings or even the gadgets themselves. It's the experience, the camaraderie, the memory. Those are things you can't get by waltzing into the electronics shop and grabbing an item off a well-stocked shelf a month after it goes on sale.
What makes people spend a week on the sidewalk in front of the Apple Store? It's the otherwise unattainable human element, whether in the form of making new line-up buddies, or the brief, simple excitement of a high-five.
Rejoice! Anime about boys who love Boys' Love coming this summer!

Pot-loving dogs: why cannabis extract is the new trend for our pets
High summer is hell for my goldendoodle, Monty. At the park, grass seeds and burrs catch in his woolly mop of black fur. The pollen and dust set off his skin allergies.
The heat – more severe every year in the Pacific north-west – cuts fetch time in half. Worst of all, in our hometown of Portland, Oregon, July is the month of fireworks. Monty is usually affable and calm. But in the weeks around the 4th, and even sometimes into early August, he's regularly sent skittering down the stairs to the garage by the pop of a rocket or the sizzle of a fountain of sparks. Sometimes he'll stay down there in the dark for hours, resisting treats – even bacon.
At my local bar, where Monty is allowed on the patio, one of the staff told me months ago that she fed her pomeranian treats made from CBD, an extract from cannabis plants. She used them around the 4th "to calm him down" and beat the heat.
No stranger to the products of Oregon's burgeoning pot industry myself, I wondered if her prescription might work with a rather larger dog.
Internet searches seemed promising. Advocates, entrepreneurs and even scientists have advocated CBD as a treatment for a wide range of canine and feline maladies from allergies to anxiety. There are widely-repeated industry claims that the pet market for CBD doubled between 2008 and 2014, with further projections of 3-5% annual growth in the market.
CBD is not psychoactive in humans, unlike THC, the compound that gets people and other animals high.
But like THC and other compounds in cannabis plants, CBD interacts with the human – and mammalian – endocannabinoid system. The precise effects of CBD on our bodies are a matter of extensive ongoing research, but advocates of marijuana as a medicine have long held that CBD can treat epilepsy, chronic pain, anxiety and other maladies.
A selection of recent findings suggest that it may be useful for humans in treating problems like PTSD, chronic pain and the psychological effects of long-term cannabis use.
CBD also supposedly moderates the effect of THC, so it has been deliberately cultivated in certain strains and introduced into extracts on the theory that it creates a smoother high. (Informal "testing" supports this view.)
I wanted to find out more about how CBD could help Monty. My first port of call was with another Portland resident – an English bulldog named Max Daddy, who is the face of a newly launched range of CBD remedies.
Max Daddy is no stranger to commerce, and this is not his first brush with fame. He is the live-in associate of another English bulldog, Zelda, who may be one of the best-known dogs in the country.
The current Zelda is the third in a line of dogs with the same name owned by Carol Gardner, a serial entrepreneur, author and former advertising executive. She started a company called Zelda Wisdom in 2000, which put pictures of Zelda the first in costume on greeting cards.
"Hallmark sells 75m [Zelda] greeting cards every year," Gardner says at her home in Portland's west hills.
Zelda's fame has made her a hometown hero – a statue of Zelda dressed as a Beefeater sits at the entrance of Portland's upscale Heathman hotel.
When Zelda the third came along, Gardner added a male rescue bulldog, Otis. When he died, Gardner says, Zelda was devastated. So they rescued a second male, Max Daddy, who had previously been imprisoned at a puppy mill.
"He was kept in a cage for his first five years. He was kept for breeding, all they wanted from him was money."
Max Daddy's health issues were worse than Gardner realized. He had severe joint problems and significant pain. "His patellas are not really attached to anything," Gardner says.
When she picked him up in Illinois, he came with a fistful of drugs, from Prozac to painkillers. Gardner thought there had to be a better way.
She started researching CBD and tried it out on Max Daddy. "It was natural, it didn't have the side effects of drugs," she says.
She liked the results but found the products inconsistent. She decided to hire chemists and develop her own line. Now, she says, Max Daddy is off his prescription meds and seemingly doing well. Zelda also takes it, and Gardner says it has reduced her anxiety.
When I met Max Daddy, he certainly seemed relaxed. He cheerfully submitted to yet another photo session, then jumped on the couch and drifted into a snore-filled sleep. Gardner credits it all to the CBD.
This year, Gardner and her business partners started selling the treats she has developed at fireworks stands in the Pacific north-west ahead of the 4th.
"We have been amazed by the results," Gardner says. She plans to go national with a treatment she says is a near-panacea.
But what does the science say? At Colorado State University, the veterinary school has the wheels turning on a long-term study of the effects of CBD on pets, including any therapeutic benefits. So far, the results are encouraging.
A team led by Dr Stephanie McGrath found an 89% reduction in epileptic seizures for dogs treated with CBD. They are moving on to study CBD as a treatment for osteoarthritis in dogs, and are recruiting for a larger epilepsy study.
When I got home I tried Max Daddy's treats on Monty. (Although Gardner says they offer a more consistent dose than other products, the treats, made with organic ingredients, are still very minimal doses for a 55lb pet.)
Although no fireworks have exploded recently, I did notice that Monty's preternatural chill seemed to deepen after taking them. When we went to the park to play fetch, he didn't drag me in the way he usually does. A beloved visitor was not jumped on in the way the visitor usually is. Monty stopped scratching as much.
While the jury is still out on the stronger claims of the CBD sellers, for now it appears that the treats do little harm, and there is emerging evidence that they may well do some good for certain conditions.
There is still, however, the delicate matter of the law.
Although marijuana has been legalized in the west coast states, Colorado and elsewhere, it is still illegal under federal law; as a consequence, pot products cannot be carried across state lines, and weed businesses still have problems with banking.
Many people in the burgeoning medical industry think CBD is different, based on their interpretations of the Drug Enforcement Administration's public advisories on the matter. The DEA says otherwise. A DEA spokesman, Special Agent Wade Sparks, says: "CBD is a schedule 1 controlled substance," meaning as far as the federal government is concerned CBD remains in the same legal category as meth or heroin.
If there is limited enforcement, it's because of the varying prosecutorial stances of federal prosecutors, especially in states where pot is legal, and the priorities forced on the DEA by epidemics of meth and opioid use.
"I think reasonable taxpayers understand that we devote our resources to the most pressing issues in the community," Sparks says.
Although CBD products are widely available even in states where pot is not legal, people possessing or using it, as well as anyone shipping it across a state line, are taking a calculated legal risk.
Nevertheless, CBD has long been used in medical marijuana for humans. The legalization of recreational and medical pot up and down the western seaboard of the US, and now in Canada, means that it has become a key product of a massive international growth industry.
Urban dog owners ask a lot of the animals who live with them. Our environments are full of objects and situations that stress dogs out.
Our schedules don't always match up with our dogs' needs for affection, attention and exercise. And our neighborhoods are full of humans who, for reasons best known to themselves, enjoy explosions. All of these things are a source of anxiety for our animals.
If CBD is proven to be as useful as its advocates believe it is, it may be revolutionary. In the meantime, it could at least be a salve for owners who, like me, can't stand to see their dogs in distress.

Three Proposals for perspectivising the Tøjhus Museum in a modern context, 2005
With history behind us and the world's frontlines drawn up before us, just like that! That is the field in which we shall have to navigate in the 21st century. How far does war go? And where does it begin within us? And are there alternatives?
Three ideas for installations at the Tøjhus Museum.
Installation A – History
A TV screen will be set up for each pillar in the Canon Galley with direct transmission from selected fronts around the world, for instance from Afghanistan, Pakistan Iraq and the Copenhagen Metro. In this way the viewer will be placed in between the old canons and other weapons and the spectacle of "the new history writing" via the screens.
Installation B – Blind spot or dark places
Two interactive and connected game boards will be installed on the second floor of the Tøjhus Museum. The squares will be in a variety of colours and designs. The game can be played by two players at a time. The interactive boards will be activated by the player treading on a square with, for instance, the text "start up" or "show care", "seduce", "lie", "pry", "humiliate", and so on. The second player will react in response on the other board. The game is conceived as a psychological exploration of relations and reactions and challenges the players to discover when the "war" can begin or be avoided in the individual player. The players' faces will be filmed along the way and via a special programme the computer will come up with suggestions as to what emotional state the players are in, e.g. "surprised", "happy", "sad", "angry" and so on. The data will be shown on a large screen.
Installation C – Reading the Mind in the Eye
By the Tøjhus Museum's "image of the enemy heads" there will be a computer monitor on which "Reading the Mind in the Eye" can be used by visitors. "Reading the Mind in the Eye" is a test of the ability to read and identify what emotional state the eyes are expressing, e.g. jocular, insistent, sad, bad-tempered, relaxed, etc. The monitor and the "image of the enemy" sculpture will be placed side by side at eye level.

The Cleveland Photo Fest was established in 2019 as an annual event for the benefit of the Greater Clevelanders who support photography as a fine art. Our mission is to strengthen the appreciation of photography as a major force in today's visually driven culture. Exhibitions, publications, educational and fellowship programming are at the core of our active engagement with the Cleveland community. The Cleveland Photo Fest has enlisted the local gallery and art-based community to share in CPF events. Participants have committed to sponsor or participate in photography related exhibitions in September and/or October of 2019. Community-oriented programming is an essential element of all CPF activities. To promote city-wide involvement, the CPF has partnered with local photographers, photography clubs, photo suppliers, national and professional organizations, educational institutions, public media and private enterprises. The Cleveland Photographic Workshop and Gemini Developers (both a volunteer run 501.C.3 corporation) serves the local and national community of photographers and photography supporters through the programming of photographic exhibitions, educational opportunities and social engagement.

Free Akron Outdoor Movies
Association/Club/Group; Film/Video/Television; Food/Drink; Kids & Family; Media; Nonprofit
Free Akron Outdoor Movies was first thought up by a couple of running buddies jogging through Glendale Cemetery. "Wouldn't it be cool to show a movie here on a big screen, under the stars, free for everyone?" That was back in 2011, and the same group of friends has put on a free, family-friendly movie in Glendale Cemetery since 2012. The response from the community has been tremendous, and we've had crowds of hundreds of neighbors on blankets and chairs at every event. We also received immediate support from the City of Akron and other businesses and organizations over the years to offset the costs and keep the movies free, including PNC Bank, Akron Digital Media Center, Glendale Cemetery, West Hill Neighborhood Organization, and Premier Bank. In addition to feature films and concessions, we've shown cartoon shorts, hosted open mic audience storytelling, offered activities for children, enjoyed live music, and hosted local food cart vendors. In 2015, we received a generous grant from PNC Bank and were able to purchase the our first screen, projector and audio system, equipment that we had previously rented. We quickly outgrew that first screen, and in 2018, the Knight Foundation generously provided the funds to purchase the 20′ inflatable, rear projection screen screen we use today. With some of the main rental costs no longer an obstacle, we changed our mission to one of being able to host multiple movies each year, not just the annual film we started with. So now we are portable…and able to show PopUp movies under the stars all over the Akron-area! Having our own outdoor movie equipment also gives us the opportunity to help other organizations and non-profits show films at their events. (Don't worry, we'll still always show a movie in the cemetery too!) We look forward to making more free, outdoor, family-friendly movies available in many Akron neighborhoods in this and coming years. Contact us if you want to explore holding a PopUp movie at your organization's event.

I've said it before, and I'll surely say it again.
If you care one ounce about security, then you won't jailbreak your iPhone.
Because jailbreaking your iDevice opens it up to more threats, as you download apps distributed unofficially from third-party websites rather than the authorised App Store.
Security researchers have issued a warning that Chinese iPhone users are unwittingly infecting their smartphones with a new iOS Trojan horse known as TinyV.
And it appears that the malware's spread is being assisted because it has been hidden inside pirated versions of apps — often with the pretence that they are "ad-free."
Meanwhile other sites offer a variety of "ad-free" video players, with no warning that the apps have been compromised.
Using a complicated combination of APIs, PLIST tricks and code hooks, the malware downloads further code from the Internet — installing unwanted applications onto your iPhone or iPad. Currently, victims are having the XZ Helper (协奏助手) jailbreak tweak surreptitiously installed onto their iDevice by the malware.
So, there's good news and bad news.
The bad news is that Apple customers who have jailbroken their iPhones and iPads are apparently putting their data at risk by jailbreaking their devices, and installing software from untrusted sources.
The good news, however, is that eight years after the launch of the original iPhone — malicious hackers still have to go to quite extreme lengths to infect iOS devices.
Criminals find it too difficult to sneak malicious iOS apps into Apple's highly-secured "walled garden," and so have to resort to different methods to get their malware onto your iPhone or iPad.
But the threat on regular devices is nothing like the malware that can be encountered on jailbroken devices, where this year alone we have seen hundreds of thousands of iPhones hit by the likes of iOS/KeyRaider.
That's not to say that non-jailbroken iOS is entirely safe. For instance, we have seen serious bugs in AirDrop that could drop malware onto unsuspecting iPhone users' devices, zero-day flaws that could be used to to silently steal passwords and plant malware, and even 1,500 Apple-approved apps tainted by a data-exposing vulnerability.
And I have lost count of the number of times that a "trusted" app, distributed via the App Store, has been found to have a serious privacy flaw at its heart, or failing to encrypt sensitive information as it is sent up to a web server.
Ultimately, however, you decide what apps you install on your iPhone and iPad and where you get them from. In my opinion, if you have any sense, you will resist the temptation to jailbreak your iPhone — and your security will be all the better for it.
So far the only reports of infections from the TinyV Trojan horse have come from mainland China, where it appears users are more inclined to jailbreak their devices.
Keep a sharp eye out for further updates should new information become available. To learn more about the malware, check out the blog post from Palo Alto Networks.

C                                    Dm         G7
Don't say you're mine if you can't belong to me
D7              G7               C
For my heart cannot be less than number one
C7            F     G7                C        Am
Don't say its love  if you think it's wrong to be

My heart and I wouldn't know what to do
What could we ever do without you

Q: Auto numerate MySQL Query Is there any mysql query, to update a table and set numbers starting from 1?
For example, the table "item" has 100000 rows, the query would just update first row and set id ="1", next to 2, 3, 4 etc.

A: Try:
ALTER TABLE item MODIFY id INT PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT

If you have id in your item table.
But it will show error on id column having duplicate values.

A: add auto increment column (INT) and it should do what you want

A: Is there already a primary key in the table? If not then create one with AUTO_INCREMENT.
This would do the job done.
ALTER TABLE `your_table`
ADD COLUMN `id_primary`  int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT FIRST ,
ADD PRIMARY KEY (`id_primary`);

Note: Changing an existing column to primary key AUTO_INCREMENT would raise error if that column contains duplicate values.

A: Given this
MariaDB [sandbox]> select * from posts;
+------+--------+----------+
| id   | userid | category |
+------+--------+----------+
| NULL |      1 | a        |
| NULL |      1 | b        |
| NULL |      1 | c        |
| NULL |      2 | a        |
| NULL |      1 | a        |
+------+--------+----------+
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)

This code
use sandbox;
update  posts p,(select @rn:=0) rn
set         id=(@rn:=@rn+1)
where   1 = 1;

Results in
MariaDB [sandbox]> select * from posts;
+------+--------+----------+
| id   | userid | category |
+------+--------+----------+
|    1 |      1 | a        |
|    2 |      1 | b        |
|    3 |      1 | c        |
|    4 |      2 | a        |
|    5 |      1 | a        |
