/**
 * A DrawGeometric object is a geometic figure such as a line or rectangle that can
 * be drawn in a CoordinateRect.  The data for the object always consists of four
 * numbers, which are interpreted differenetly depending on the object.  These numbers
 * can be specified as Value objects.  A DrawGeometric is a Computable, and the
 * Values will be re-computed when its compute() method is called.  It should be
 * added to a Controller that can respond to any changes in the data that define
 * the Values.  If one of the Value objects has an undefined value, nothing will be drawn.
 * <p>The type of object is given as one of the constants defined in this class:
 * LINE_ABSOLUTE, OVAL_RELATIVE, CROSS, and so on.  In the descriptions of these
 * constants, x1, x2, y1, and y2 refer to the values of Value objects that provide data
 * for the DrawGeomentric while h and v refer to int's that can be specified in place of
 * x2 and y2 for certain types of figures.  For those figures, h or v is used if
 * x2 or y2, respectively, is null.

Exclusive Interview: Kenny Ortega: The Magic Behind the Movie DESCENDANTS
The above photo might be a tad bit blurry, but let me tell you why. Kenny Ortega is SO animated and passionate about his work, that he doesn't sit still for a second. (for real!) I went with this photo for my header because I love how it truly shows his excitement and love for the work that he does, and let me tell you (in case you are unaware): this guy is beyond talented. Even
better, he is so humble! Best known for directing Hocus Pocus, the High School Musical trilogy and Michael Jackson's This Is It, his resume is beyond impressive!
Yet…he's just so down to earth and REAL. And honestly. He's magic.
It's not everyday that someone so talented sits down to "chat" and share his thoughts and ideas. I literally could have listened to him talk for hours. We had just seen the film prior to him sitting down with us, so there was a lot of excitement in the room because I think that most of us were surprised at how much we loved this film. I hadn't expected to be so moved by this film! I mean, I knew my kids would flip, but as an adult, I didn't expect to LOVE this film. Well. I LOVE this film. It is such a feel good movie, and of course, it has all of the things that I love: Disney, villains, back stories but more than anything: incredible casting, and an amazing combination of music and dance. Clearly, that is what Kenny Ortega brings.
When asked what it is that helps him to bring dances to life, Kenny answered:
Years and years and years ago I had the opportunity to work with Gene Kelly. Xanadu is what brought us together. Gene Kelly was someone who I grew up wanting to be like, you know: singing, dancing, acting, directing, choreographing. You know, I loved all of it and we became friends. He became my mentor and he used to say to me that there needs to be a reason at the center of your ideas that motivates all of your work and so that and things that I shared with Michael Jackson and other amazing people that came into my life as mentors and teachers and friends.
I'm always looking — when I'm reading a script or when I'm pitched an idea — for those things that live in the center of the big picture. Things that move me, that motivate me, that excited me and they give me purpose and reason to get up and go to work every day and to have ideas. So when music and dance become part of the storytelling it's fairly simple for me when you can turn a page and there's a reason for it to exist. Part of my work is already accomplished. The writer has established that characters go from here to here and this is what happens in between. Now you want to develop a musical number that helps you achieve that and that not only goes for the lyrics but the feel of the music, the style of the music and what those and how the staging or choreography would be designed.
"So when music and dance become part of the storytelling it's fairly simple for me when you can turn a page and there's a reason for it to exist." ~Kenny Ortega
On why this musical hold the most special memories for him…
I mean that here I was a kid that grew up watching Disney and watching Disney animations, Cruella Deville, Maleficent, you know, all of these magnificent Walt Disney characters and suddenly they were on the page, you know, and I was like I'm being invited to be able to like play with these iconic heritage characters and their offspring, you know, to develop brand new characters, you know, for Disney.
His favorite dance number?
Rotten to the Core and I'll tell you why. I started as an actor at 13 years old and I was lucky enough to be in the original London touring production of Oliver and when I first read the script and started to imagine the world I thought of the Isle of Lost, a bit of Dickens and a little kind of old London town under the bridge, that darker underworld. I loved the idea of being able to take Rotten to the Core, use it as character introduction and also to introduce us a bit to the island, what this place is.
"I loved the idea of being able to take Rotten to the Core, use it as character introduction and also to introduce us a bit to the island, what this place is." ~Kenny Ortega
This happens to be one of my favorites from the movie as well! Trust me, your kids are going to flip over these musical numbers!! Another awesome dance number in the film is to another old favorite: Be Our Guest. So we asked Kenny
What made you decide to make the Be Our Guest musical such a standout scene in the movie?
You saw that. I had a certain amount of days to be able to realize this entire movie and budget that I had to work with the days that I had for that particular whole sequence out doors in the garden, the family party, the family day, all the way down to the crochet field and to Queen Lea mistaking Mal for Maleficent. For all of that I had a day.
I had to storyboard everything out very, very carefully for this movie and the studio agreed with me that they thought Be Our Guest would be a wonderful sort of edition to that moment, but because of the time that I had, the practical way to approach it would be just to have it going on in the background. And I devised a way with my assistants and the cast and our crew to figure out a way to get it all in the time that we had. Our schedule actually opened up a little bit and I was able to get a day and I think a quarter and I think that quarter made a difference in being able to go in and shoot that piece or to just have it happening in the background. Choices, tough choices that you have to make.
What about creative license?
You know, I think that I step into my role as a director when the cameras are ready to roll with a good understanding. I'm on the same page with all of my partners. We all understand what our goals are and what we want to accomplish and if I ever find myself suddenly with a spontaneous idea or an actor is coming back to me and wants to try something I'll do it a couple of ways because at the end of the day this is a partnership and that you want to deliver something that everybody is excited about and believing in.
The last thing you want is somebody to go why did you do that? I have a great trust and relationship here and I'm given a lot of freedom, a big voice and a lot of room to move.
It's kind of a love story, but no kissing …
was that a conscience decision?
*and thank you in advance says this mama!
Absolutely! Leave something, you know. There's too much pressure put on that aspect of relationships. Get to know somebody, you know, get to really know somebody. That was a conscience decision and also I just think that we all have hopes that perhaps this might grow. You don't know. You can't predict, but it allows these children to mature into young adults and to blossom in ways that they're not there yet.
The Cast. Tell us how they came to be.
I tell you. I worked with Kristen Chenoweth. I directed her before and I'm in love with her and I saw her four times on Broadway in Wicked. I did get to see her opening night of on the 20th Century and I'm going back for her closing night and party. I'm going to be part of the introduction of her getting her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and so I'm a huge fan. I blush! She sends me videos and I drop the phone. We were getting ready to cast our movie before the movie Maleficent came out and suddenly we kind of realized that Angelina was sort of taking up a lot of territory with her interpretation of Maleficent. Gary Marsh called me and said and he said what do you think of Kristen Chenoweth to play Maleficent? I was like what? It was: yes I wanna work with her in any capacity! But can you imagine what she'd do with this? She's so brilliant! She's so versatile, so capable.! You know, she's so fun, a real team player and so it was a delight, you know, and I was like yes, let's go after her and it wasn't easy. She was a busy lady. When we finally got her to commit it was a joyous day and no one was more excited than Dove who grew up idealizing her and when Dove found out that Kristen was playing her mother in the movie I mean fireworks went off!
"Gary Marsh called me and said and he said what do you think of Kristen Chenoweth to play Maleficent? I was like what? It was: yes I wanna work with her in any capacity!" ~Kenny Ortega
Kathy Nagimy is one of my favorite human beings on the planet. She is an awesome lady. We stayed friends for over 23 years since we did Hocus Pocus and she always brings something to the table doesn't she? In everything that she does.
"The fact that they kept coming back, was a part of what helped me to realize that they were in it to win it and that whatever it took for them to land these roles." ~Kenny Ortega
And these kids. I can't say more about them. You know, we took our time. We put them through heck. I mean some of them auditioned, you know, eight, 12 times back again, back again, back again! The fact that they came back and didn't just say oh, forget it, you know. The fact that they kept coming back, was a part of what helped me to realize that they were in it to win it and that whatever it took for them to land these roles.
I mean Booboo Stewart had already done X Men and Twilight and came back eight times. Eight times! You know, when they first told me what about Booboo Stewart I was like he's not gonna come in. And Judy Taylor, our casting director, said you're wrong, he wants to come in and not only did he come in, he came back eight times to read with other actor and actresses and what a dream he is. What a dream. Isn't he wonderful? A real star. They all are.
If you could work with anybody who you haven't worked with who would it be?
Wow, Meryl Streep. Janet Jackson, Bruno Mars, George Clooney and I would love to work with Christian Bale again. There are a lot of people, a lot of people out there. There's so much talent in the world, Broadway talent.
Your fans want to know will there be a sequel?
It's up to them. You ask for it, you get it! I would love there to be one. I think I can speak for everyone from Kristen, to Dove, all of us. We have the times of our lives. We hope that there's an opportunity for us to continue this and, you know, forward but the fans will have to be the deciding factor.
"We hope that there's an opportunity for us to continue this and, you know, forward but the fans will have to be the deciding factor." ~Kenny Ortega
I know that I am REALLY hoping for a sequel, and I can't wait for all of you to see this film. It is so full of life and energy and music and dance and all of the things that the world needs more of!!
Disney's DESCENDANTS aires on the Disney Channel on July 31st!

I LOVE your post, thank you for sharing. He is beyond talented and I have watched his work for years. So happy to know that this is family friendly and that you give it 2 thumbs up, my girls are going to flip!
I'm sorry but is that a phone stuck down in the middle (boobs) of that lady's shirt front and center of this photo? Sometimes I wonder why these people don't class it up more when it comes to these events. Sorry Keri Lyn - you and Koupon Karen look darling - but that's so tacky. Poor Kenny. Back on topic - love your post and I have loved and admired Kenny since Hocus Pocus! I always look forward to your trip posts!

Dr Emma Patrick
Dr Emma Patrick from Taranaki Base Hospital was nominated by Dr Claire Frost for her talk about Blood topics/Transfusion update.
Dr Patrick covers the current state of transfusion in New Zealand, up-to-date research on the use of tranexamic acid, and the challenges posed by novel anti-coagulants and how to manage them in the acute setting of haemorrhage. (It is an updated version of the talk given at AQUA 2014.)
Dr Frost described the talk as "a useful update on very relevant topics that are constantly evolving/changing and present to us frequently in our everyday practice."
Dr Patrick is presenting at Timaru and Tauranga (regional meeting) this year.

When you first learn that you have MS, you may feel able to discuss it with your family. Indeed, many people receive the news of their diagnosis with their partner or parents and the process of dealing with the diagnosis is a team effort. For many people, it is a relief to be able to talk about it.
MS can change the dynamics of a family and affect relationships. While some changes can be challenging such as the need for more help around the house, others can be very rewarding such as new hobbies discovered with family members. For a family to live with MS in the most positive way, the first stage is telling your family.
The process of telling family members can sometimes be difficult. They may have lots of questions that you don't know that answer to. They may also become upset, especially if they don't know anything about MS. Before you discuss your diagnosis with members of your family, you need to consider how you think they will react. It may be helpful to have information pamphlets available to help talk about MS and to explain what MS is.
Parents often choose not to tell their children about their MS. Naturally, they do not want to frighten their children or cause them undue concern. However, children are very good at picking up changes in moods, over-hearing conversations or responding to body language, and without the appropriate information, they imagine much worse things and become upset.
For children and teenagers with MS, telling family can be especially difficult. It can be an emotional process as family members feel that life will change dramatically for the young person. Most children and teenagers will rely on their parents or guardians to help them with the telling process, so it is important that both parties are comfortable with talking about the subject.


for x,y ∈ ℝ. Show that this is a metric on ℝ.
< ε. First show that every Cauchy sequence is bounded. Next, using the compactness of closed intervals, show that every Cauchy sequence has a convergent subsequence. By Theorem 2.2.2, the original Cauchy sequence converges. Thus ℝ with the usual metric just described is complete because every Cauchy sequence converges.
. Would this be a metric space? If so, prove that this is the case.
Now take max of the two ends.
every point is open and closed. In fact, show that every set is open and every set is closed. Is this a complete metric space? Explain why. Describe the open balls.
. Then the closure of A, written as A is defined to be the intersection of all closed sets which contain A. Show that A = A∪A′. That is, to find the closure, you just take the set and include all limit points of the set. It was proved in the chapter, but go over it yourself.
. Show that A′ is closed.
is compact if and only if it is closed and totally bounded. Note the similarity with the Heine Borel theorem on ℝ. Show that on ℝ, every bounded set is also totally bounded. Thus the earlier Heine Borel theorem for ℝ is obtained.
are both metric spaces and f : X → Y has the property that f is one to one, onto, and continuous, and also f−1 is one to one onto and continuous, then the two metric spaces are compact or not compact together. That is one is compact if and only if the other is.
Consider ℝ the real numbers. Define a distance in the following way.
, consider xn = n. Show it is a Cauchy sequence with respect to ρ.
This is a really neat result.
. Give an example in ℝ to show that this might not be so if K is not compact.

, then it is compact.
. Thus with the above, this will show that the two definitions of compactness are the same for a metric space.
Suppose D is sequentially compact and f is upper semicontinuous at every point of D. Show that then f achieves its maximum on D.
Show that a real valued function defined on a metric space D is continuous if and only if it is both upper and lower semicontinuous.
Give an example of a lower semicontinuous function defined on ℝ which is not continuous and an example of an upper semicontinuous function which is not continuous.
Show G is a lower semicontinuous function.
, then it is the limit of an increasing sequence of continuous functions. Here is an outline. You complete the details.
Why? Therefore, zn → x. Why?
and so they are equal. Why?
. Hint To save trouble, maybe show that f is upper semicontinuous if and only if −f is lower semicontinuous. Then maybe you could just use the above problem.
. Note that in this case a function identically equal to ∞ would be continuous so this is a rather odd sort of thing, a little different from what we normally like to consider. Check the details and explain why in this setting, the lower semicontinuous functions are exactly pointwise limits of increasing sequences of continuous functions and the upper semicontinuous functions are exactly pointwise limits of decreasing sequences of continuous functions.

Top-performing hedge fund is shorting Canadian banks on all the usual suspects — and something even more worrying
Posted by press reporter | Jan 18, 2019
A small U.S. hedge fund that was a top performer last year is shorting Canadian banks.
Crescat Capital sees the Canadian economy heading for recession as the housing market buckles. That might be bad enough for the banks but they face an added strain: outside the financial sector, more than 80 per cent of Canadian companies aren't generating enough cash to support their businesses, the highest in the world, according to Crescat.
"Canadian banks will be left holding the bag and the ones to suffer from what is likely to be a major economic recession," Tavi Costa, a global macro analyst at Denver-based Crescat, said by phone.
Crescat has only US$55 million under management, but it returned 41 per cent in its Global Macro Fund last year and 32 per cent in its Long/Short Fund, bolstered by a short wager on China, according to its website. That put the company among the top performers in a year in which the industry saw its biggest loss since 2011, declining 4.1 per cent, according to Hedge Fund Research Inc.
The country's biggest lenders are Royal Bank of Canada and Toronto-Dominion Bank, along with Bank of Nova Scotia, Bank of Montreal, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce and National Bank of Canada. Costa declined to name the banks Crescat was shorting. Representatives for Canada's six biggest banks didn't immediately comment or declined to comment.
Crescat's short comes amid long-standing warnings from economists, investors and even the Bank of Canada about elevated consumer debt, which was driven higher by a decades-long housing boom. Canada's ratio of household debt to income has been hovering at about 175 per cent for the past two years, compared with a peak of about 134 per cent in the U.S. at the height of its housing bubble in 2007.
Now Canada's housing market is beginning to cool. Sales plunged 32 per cent in Vancouver last year and 16 per cent in Toronto amid rising interest rates, stricter mortgage rules and new taxes.
"China is in the process of reversing its key role as a driver of global economic growth," the 29-year-old Costa said. "Countries like Canada and Australia, and their respective housing markets, are the economies most vulnerable in this scenario."
Meanwhile, Crescat calculates that about 80 per cent of Canadian non-financial stocks have been cash-flow negative in the past 12 months, which he measures as cash flow from operations minus capital expenditures.
That may be inflated by the the large numbers of "zombie" companies on Canadian stock exchanges, which the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development defines as those 10 years and older and whose earnings aren't high enough to cover interest payments on their debts. In a September study, Deloitte found 16 per cent of public companies on the Toronto Stock Exchange and its sister Venture Exchange are considered zombies, compared with 10 per cent globally.
Cash flow in the energy sector may have been hammered by a slump in crude prices in the past year.
But Costa said even if he excludes energy and materials stocks, 70 per cent of Canadian stocks have still lost money on a free cash-flow basis. If you consider only non-financial stocks with a market value of more than $100 million, the share is still more than 50 per cent, he said.
"How is it sustainable for companies that generate no cash to continue to employ people?" Costa said. "Many of these troubled companies would be bankrupt under tighter monetary conditions."
Previous Shorts
The country's biggest lenders could face troubles on both the housing and corporate fronts, according to Costa.
At their peak last year, the six largest banks, traded at an average of 1.9 times book value, a similar valuation to U.S. banks prior to the global financial crisis in 2008, according to Costa. He expects that to drop to 0.7 times book value or so, where U.S. banks were trading post-financial crisis.
Other investors have recommended shorting Canadian financials on a looming housing correction in the past, including Steve Eisman, who predicted the U.S. subprime mortgage collapse.
And Canadians bank stocks have largely defied naysayers as the country's unemployment rate has hovered near records lows amid steady growth — until recently. The S&P/TSX Composite Commercial Banks Index slumped 11 per cent last year amid market global volatility, the biggest decline since 2008.
"Most of these banks are off their highs and have just started to break down," Costa said.

Canada to end bombing missions in Iraq and Syria
David Ljunggren
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Monday Canada would pull out six jets that have been bombing targets in Iraq and Syria, ending a controversial combat role in the fight against Islamic State.

Trudeau's Liberals won an election last October promising to withdraw the jets but came under pressure from allies who feared the decision could weaken efforts to combat the militant group. Bombing began in November 2014 under the previous Conservative government.
"We can't do everything .. we were guided by our desire to do what we could do best to help in the region and to do it in the right way," Trudeau told a news conference.
"The people terrorized by (Islamic State) every day don't need our vengeance, they need our help."
Canada will end its bombing missions by Feb. 22 but keep two surveillance planes in the region as well as refueling aircraft, and triple the number of soldiers training Kurdish troops in northern Iraq to about 200.
Officials in the United States welcomed the announcement, which came after sustained diplomatic pressure from major allies to persuade Canada to do as much as possible.
"I'm confident we are going to continue to have discussions with the Canadians about additional steps they can take to further enhance our counter-ISIL efforts," said White House spokesman John Earnest.
He said Trudeau had talked to Obama on Monday. The two will meet in Washington next month.
Canada's decision came as the Syrian army advanced towards the Turkish border on Monday in an offensive backed by Russia and Iran.
Trudeau said the new mission would be engaged for at least two years and then be re-evaluated. The best way to promote long-term stability was to help local people fight to get their territory back, he added.
Canadians' appetite for foreign military missions dropped after 10 years of involvement in Afghanistan that ended in 2011, during which 158 soldiers were killed.
Last March, one Canadian soldier died and three others were injured in a friendly fire incident in Iraq.
Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan conceded there would still be risks for the trainers.
"This is a conflict zone and a very high threat environment," he said by phone.
Opinion polls show Canadians are sharply divided over the role of the armed forces in the fight against Islamic State.
The Conservatives said the announcement was "a shameful step backward" from Canada's military tradition.
(This version of the story was corrected to make clear Canadian bombing mission started in November 2014, not April 2015, paragraph 2)

Minstrel the 4th is a modern recreation of the Jupiter Ace, a lesser-known home computer from 1982. It's notable for its use of Forth rather than BASIC which was common at the time.
The Ace had a ZX Spectrum-like rubber keyboard. The Minstrel's is an improvement but its small tactile switches don't really allow for fast typing.
The Minstrel and similar computer scan the keyboard by reading a group of hardware ports which correspond with half-rows of the keyboard. They expose the bus as an expansion port, so it's possible to intercept those port reads. Here's my working prototype, it uses quite a bit of logic. The Pico's main job is to act as a USB host and allow a modern keyboard to be plugged into its own micro-USB port. and maps the keypresses it receives to the appropriate rows and columns of the Minstrel's keyboard matrix.
It's not only the size and arrangement of the keys that limit typing speed, but the fact that the keyboard matrix is scanned every 1/50th second and then not buffered. So even with modern key switches, this makes typing on computers like the Ace, ZX81 and Spectrum is a bit of a plod. It's easy for the Pico to buffer the keyboard input, and present it to the Minstrel one key at a time, at a speed that it can handle.
This also opens up the possibility of connecting a serial terminal to the device to allow listings to be pasted to the Minstrel. It also means that anything you type using a USB keyboard can be echoed to the terminal giving you a paper tape of In the top picture you can see that the finished product has a USB-FTDI adaptor attached for this purpose.
My interface is now in production in small batches, please contact me for details.

So what does all this actually mean? Does this mean that if we are using 6.6 we are not going to be able to get support after 10/2016 and no support for 6.7 after 7/2017 even though the product is not going EOL until 2020? Can someone explain this to me in laymens terms please? Because the way I see it, why do I need a subscription that includes EUS if RHEL 6 is not going EOL until 2020?
Extended Update Support (EUS) allows one to receive bugfix and security updates to a minor release (eg: the Y in RHEL X.Y) for a longer time.
EUS is intended to be used for customers who have a longer software lifecycle and require bug/security updates, but don't wish to update to each minor release as it comes out every 6-or-so months.
This means there is a separate RHEL channel for RHEL 6.6 EUS and we'll keep making bugfix/security updates into that channel until Oct 31 2016. After this date, you're welcome to stay on RHEL 6.6 if you wish but in the event that a software update is required to resolve an issue, you'll need to move to either the main RHEL 6 channel or a later RHEL 6.Y EUS release.
Full technical support for usage and configuration will be given to all RHEL 6 minor releases throughout the entire lifecycle until Nov 30 2020.
You could call up on that day with RHEL 6.0, ask us how to do something, and we'll help you do it. We'll also probably remind you that the product goes EOL that day and you really should be moving to a later major RHEL release.
Very helpful explanation! Thanks Jamie.
Still don't get it. If I currently have 6.6 installations under corporate maintenance. When will my version be EOS and EOL? What does it mean that I will have to move to a different channel? Can you please be more specific?
We stopped making updates to 6.6 on October 31 2016, but have continued updating packages in later RHEL 6 minor releases.
Support for configuration and usage questions is provided on all RHEL 6 until at least November 30 2020 (the end of the Production 3 phase), but if you run into an issue with your currently-installed 6.6 packages, you'll need to update to a package from a later minor release in the main RHEL 6 channel if available, or we may choose to deliver the fix in later major release such as RHEL 7.
The main RHEL 6 channel stops getting updates on November 30 2020 (the end of the Production 3 Phase). If you choose to purchase the RHEL 6 Extended Lifecycle Support to get the critical errata delivered during the ELS phase, you'll need to add the ELS channel to your systems. If you choose not to purchase ELS after 2020, then you won't be getting any more package updates so there's no need to change channel.
To add to Jamie's last post.
EUS is not needed, but it means you will always update to the current minor release of RHEL and the latest patch level of the rpm you update. E.g. If you do not buy EUS today and therefor do not connect to RHEL 6.6 EUS channels yum -y update will cause a full update to RHEL 6.9 with patches upto the last available patches.
ELS is only needed if the applications running on your server are not certified for a higher major release at the time the major release you are running at the end of Production phase 3. E.g. If you migrate before November 30 2020 to RHEL 7.x or RHEL 8.y there is no need to buy ELS.
This link did not mention the end of EUS of 6.8 and 6.9. Can anybody clarify?
6.7 is the last EUS for RHEL 6. There is no EUS for 6.8 and onwards.
I have a situation where I am running version. I need to have an advise what is the impact of not upgrading to the latest minor release. I will still get support by RedHat in case of issues, correct? Can I assume the only impact is that I am not running the latest package enhancements and bug fixes ?
If you are running RHEL 6.0 and you ask "how do I do this?" then we will gladly help you configure it.
However, if you are running RHEL 6.0 and you say "I have this problem" and that problem is resolved with a package update from a later version of RHEL 6, then the answer is to upgrade that package and its dependencies.
You may run into issues where Red Hat will tell you that only an upgrade to the latest minor release wil fix it. Security issues are your biggest treath.
I am trying to look for which minor release of 6.x is current supported via base channel ? Is it 6.8 and up ?
Another question, for example 6.7 EUS ends December 31, 2018 but when its standard base supported ended ? when will 6.8 standard support ends ?
The base channel always includes the latest packages for the latest minor release, so currently it contains 6.10.
Regardless of whether a system is subscribed to the base channel or one of the EUS channels, that system has tech support for usage and configuration until the EOL of the major release.
However, to get updated packages, the system must be subscribed to a channel which is receiving updates.
The only RHEL6 channels receiving updates are the base channel, and 6.7 EUS (until December 31 2018).
There is no EUS for 6.8 onwards.
RHEL 7.6 is realased on 2018-10-30 and hence only based channel 7.6 will receive errata updates and no errata u will be provided on base channel of 7.5 or lower.
So the strategy to well maintain a RHEL release is to updates to latest minor release as soon as its available.

Illinois Youth Drug Prevention Activism Soars
(Springfield, IL) – One year after the relaunch of an Illinois youth drug prevention group, its summer conference attendance by Illinois high school teens is expected to jump 40 percent.
The Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute, administered by the Springfield-based Illinois Alcoholism and Drug Dependence Association (IADDA) and boosted by a $1.1 million grant from the Skokie-based Cebrin Goodman Center, will host nearly 450 Illinois youth – up from 285 in 2012 – at Eastern Illinois University on July 21–25.
"The $1.1 million Goodman grant included additional funding for an outreach coordinator whose job is to reach out to communities across Illinois who have never participated or have higher rates of alcohol or drug use," said IADDA CEO Sara Moscato Howe. "The grant also included additional dollars to provide 150 scholarships for youth to attend the summer conference."
Larry Goodman, along with his late wife, Lillian Goodman, founded the Skokie based foundation in honor of their granddaughter, Cebrin, who died of a drug overdose. The Foundation has committed the three-year grant to the Springfield-based youth drug prevention program, previously known as the Illinois Teen Institute, as part of his crusade against youth drug abuse.
"We have been able to dramatically expand our outreach to high school students throughout Illinois and provide drug prevention programming to thousands of youth who would otherwise now be overlooked because of the Illinois budget cuts in the last few years," said Director of Program Development Ron Jakubisin.
Here are the communities that are new to Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute for 2013 that were not in attendance in 2012:
Arlington Heights, Athens, Belvidere, Bunker Hill, Carbondale, Carpentersville, Carterville, Centralia, Champaign, Cicero, Cordova, DeKalb, Divernon, East Alton, Flossmoor, Franklin, Franklin Park, Godfrey, Granville, Green Bay, Greenview, Herrin, Leland, Lostant, Lovington, Malta, Mark, Milwaukee, Naperville, Princeton, Round Lake, Roxana, Sandwich, Schiller Park, Sullivan, Swansea, Vernon Hills, Walnut, Walnut Hill, Waukegan, Williamsville, Wood River, Worden, and Wyanet.
For any questions about the registration/application process, please contact the IADDA office at 217.528.7335 ext. 12.
About the Cebrin Goodman Center
Established in 2005, the Cebrin Goodman Center is committed to the goal of helping young people fulfill their potential as happy, healthy contributing members of society. The often tragic consequences of drug use, abuse, and addiction are a powerful threat to the realization of that goal.
Lillian and Larry Goodman created The Cebrin Goodman Center in memory of their granddaughter Cebrin who lost her battle with drug addiction. The Goodman family wants to spare other families the pain of losing a loved one by educating teens, parents, and communities about substance abuse and other challenges facing teens today.

Philanthropist Larry Goodman Donates $1.1 Million Drug Prevention Grant, Creating Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute
(Springfield, IL) – July 18, 2012. In February, the proposed elimination of Illinois' entire $2.6 million youth drug prevention budget by Governor Pat Quinn caught the attention of Highland Park resident Larry Goodman who unsuccessfully advocated against the cut, but eventually reached for his own checkbook to help save youth drug prevention in Illinois.
IADDA CEO Sara Moscato Howe (right) speaks at press conference.
Goodman, who along with his late wife, Lillian, founded the Skokie-based Cebrin Goodman Center, today announced at a Springfield conference that he has committed $1.1 million to a Springfield-based youth drug prevention program, the Illinois Teen Institute, which will now be known as the Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute.
The three-year, $1.1 million drug prevention grant is equal to 64% of $1.6 million of Illinois drug prevention money that the Illinois General Assembly ended up cutting in the final state fiscal year 2013 budget, which began on July 1.
In fiscal year 2008, Illinois spent $7.5 million on youth drug prevention.
"Illinois is facing a deadly teen heroin epidemic that is roiling Chicago's suburbs and downstate Illinois, and that is why I stepped up to help," said Goodman, whose granddaughter, Cebrin, died of a drug-overdose. "It is unconscionable that the governor and lawmakers could cut youth drug prevention money in the midst of this heroin crisis that is terrorizing the suburbs and downstate Illinois."
"The days of heroin use being confined to the wrong people in the wrong places are gone. It is a plague of all communities, all incomes and all children," said Wayne Hunter, Lake County sheriff chief of administration, Daily Herald, January 31, 2012.
The newly-minted Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute, which will be administered by the Springfield-based Illinois Alcoholism and Drug Dependence Association (IADDA), will take over, in part, where the State of Illinois is in retreat. Additionally, a portion of the funds will go to support Operation Snowball, a drug prevention program also operated by IADDA.
"We will be able to dramatically expand our outreach to high school students throughout Illinois and provide drug prevention programming to thousands of youth who would otherwise now be overlooked because of the Illinois budget cuts," said CGTI Program Manager Sarah Potter.
The new Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute will be officially launched with hundreds of Illinois high school students at the start of this year's Teen Institute conference in Bloomington on Sunday, July 22. The conference will be held at Illinois Wesleyan University July 22 through July 26.

Nothing says spring better than flower-infused cocktails, right? There's something refreshing about a cocktail with a mix of floral and citrus flavors in the same mix. This Lavender Collins Cocktail is the perfect mix of sweet (from a lavender-infused syrup) and tart (from lemon juice). The club soda topping gives it a nice sparkling twist.
This is a more floral take on the classic Tom Collins cocktail, but to be honest, I don't think it can even compare! Once you try this, the classic will never be the same.
1. Bring water and lavender to a boil in a saucepan, using a wooden spoon to stir in the sugar until it's completely dissolved.
2. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow syrup to cool.
3. After it's cooled, strain the lavender from the syrup. The syrup will keep for up to one week in the refrigerator.
4. Stir gin, lemon juice and syrup in a glass or in a cocktail shaker.
Add ice and top with club soda.
5. Garnish with a lavender stalk and a slice of lemon.
Not only does this look like it tastes amazing, it's such a pretty drink too! Perfect for an early spring brunch!


Our collaboration with Engineers Without Borders has resulted in a number of new latrine projects in the Ilam area. Community Health is directly related to sanitation. This initiative with latrine construction addresses these primary concerns. Latrine construction is an important part of a larger public health initiative by NCDC and EWB.
From 2006 to 2018, NCDC, NCDF, and EWB participated along with the community to build a toilet at each house in the village. The WHO plans called a dual soak (septic) pit design, however logistical constraints; land availability, costs, and materials, meant that in some cases the design was modified for the specific needs and a single septic tank design.
A full photo report on Latrine construction in Kalinchowk in 2018 is available here.
"Worldwide, more than one billion people lack access to an improved water source, such as a rainwater collection or dug well, and two billion still need access to basic sanitation facilities, such as a latrine. By 2015, the international community hopes to reduce by half the number of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation.

What are the system requirements for Altaro VM Backup?
For replication Version 5.5 and onwards are supported.
It's important to note the version combination between ESXi and vCenter.
Note: that the Free version of VMware ESXi is not supported as it lacks components required by Altaro VM Backup.
When making use of the NBD Transport mode, virtual disks cannot be larger than 1TB each. More information here.
Below is a list of the default TCP ports used by our software and their purpose. All these ports must be allowed.
35106 : Communication for VMware 6.5, Backup and Restore operations.
Note: Please ensure that the backup location chosen does not perform any sort of deduplication outside that of Altaro VM Backup.
For Hyper-V Windows Server 2012 Host OS and onward are supported for Boot from Backup Drive. The Microsoft iSCSI Initiator Service has to be running on the machine you're attempting to boot to.
VMware requires ports 35200 - 35220 open on the firewall and it also requires an iSCSI Storage Adapter. More information on that here.
The datastore chosen for restore must be VMFS.
Virtual Machines backed up from Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2012 hosts have to be restored to hosts running Windows Server 2016 build 1607 or older.
Virtual machines backed up from Windows Server 2012 R2 and newer can be restore to hosts running up to Windows Server 2019.
Naturally, you can restore to a newer operating system, but not to an older one i.e. you will be able to restore a VM backed up from a 2008 R2 host to a 2012 one, but not the other way round.


The Atlanta Falcons led the Super Bowl 28-3. Late in the fourth quarter, they had an 8-point lead with minutes left and the ball just beyond the New England 20-yard line. A field goal seals the game and a Super Bowl title, and yet on second down Kyle Shanahan called a pass play and Matt Ryan took a devastating sack.
Of course New England deserves credit for the comeback, and they'll get plenty as the New England dynasty and the Tom Brady legacy will be discussed ad nauseum. But the story of this game is the Atlanta collapse.

Q: Azure Pipelines parameter value from variable template We would like to deploy components of our application to developer's local machines and want it to be easy enough for our co-workers to use and easy enough for us to maintain. These are virtual machines with a certain naming convention, for instance: VM001, VM002, and so on.
I can define these machines, and use the value later on in the pipeline, in a parameter in YAML like this:
parameters:
  - name: stage
    displayName: Stage
    type: string
    values:
      - VM001
      - VM002
      - And so on...

I then only have to maintain one stage, because the only thing that really differs is the stage name:
stages:
  - stage: ${{ parameters.stage }}
    displayName: Deploy on ${{ parameters.stage }}
  - jobs:
    ...

The idea behind defining the machines in the parameters like this is that developers can choose their virtual machine from the 'Stage' dropdown when they want to deploy to their own virtual machine. By setting the value of the parameter to the virtual machine, the stage is named and the correct library groups will also be linked up to the deployment (each developer has their own library groups where we store variables such as accounts and secrets).
However, we have multiple components that we deploy through multiple pipelines. So each component gets its own YAML pipeline and for each pipeline we will have to enter and maintain the same list of virtual machines.
We already use variable and job templates for reusability. I want to find a way to create a template with the list of machines and pass it to the parameter value. This way, we only need to maintain one template so whenever someone new joins the team or someone leaves, we only need to update one file instead of updating all the pipelines.
I've tried to pass the template to the parameter value using an expression like this:
variables:
  - name: VirtualMachinesList
    value: VirtualMachinesList.yml

parameters:
  - name: stage
    displayName: Stage
    type: string
    values:
      - ${{ variables.VirtualMachinesList }}

The VirtualMachinesList.yml looks like this:
variables:
  - name: VM001
    value: VM001
  - name: VM002
    value: VM002
  - And so on...

This gives the following error when I try to run the pipeline:
A template expression is not allowed in this context
I've also tried changing the parameter type to object. This results in a text field with a list of all the virtual machines and you can select the ones you don't want to deploy to and remove them. This isn't very user-friendly and also very error-prone, so not a very desirable solution.
Is there a way to pass the list of virtual machines to the parameter value from a single location, so that developers can choose their own virtual machine to deploy to?

A: I know you want to maintain the list of virtual machines in one place, and also keep the function that developers can choose the vm from the dropdown to deploy to. But i am afraid it cannot be done currently. Runtime parameters doesnot support template yet. You can submit a user voice here regarding this issue.
Currently you can keep only one function, either maintain the vms in one place or developer can choose their vm from the dropdown.
1, To maintain the virtual machines in one place. You can define a variable template to hold the virtual machines. And make the developer to type their vm to deploy to. See below:
Define an empty runtime parameter to let the developer to type in.
parameters:
- name: vm
  type: string
  default:

Define the variable template to hold the VMS
#variable.yml template
variables:
  vm1: vm1
  vm2: vm2
  ...

Then in the pipeline define a variable to refer to the vm variable in the variables template. See below
variables:
- template: variables.yml
- name: vmname
  value: $[variables.${{parameters.vm}}]

steps:
- powerhsell: echo $(vmname)

2, To make the developer have the convenience to choose their vm from the dropdown. You have to define these machines parameters in all pipeline.

A: You're really close. You'll want to update how you're consuming your variable template to:
variables:
   - template: variable-template.yml

Here's a working example (assuming both the variable template and consuming pipeline are within the same directory of a repository):
variable-template.yml:
variables:
  - name: VM001
    value: VM001
  - name: VM002
    value: VM002

example-pipeline.yml:
name: Stackoverflow-Example-Variables
trigger:
    - none
variables:
   - template: variable-template.yml
stages:
    - stage: StageA
      displayName: "Stage A"
      jobs:
        - job: output_message_job
          displayName: "Output Message Job"
          pool:
            vmImage: "ubuntu-latest"
          steps:
            - powershell: |
                Write-Host "Root Variable: $(VM001), $(VM002)"

Кенасса в Днепре — культовое сооружение караимов, располагавшееся в Днепре (бывшем Екатеринославе) по ул. Железной (ныне Европейской), 4.

История
По данным на 1859 год, караимский молитвенный дом в Екатеринославе находился в наёмном каменном здании. Официальное утверждение кенассы последовало в соответствии с предписанием Екатеринославского губернского правления от 15 апреля 1887 года за № 22. К приходу кенассы относились караимы, проживающие в Екатеринославе, станицах Каменской и Урюпинской. Строительство каменного здания кенассы в мавританском стиле началось 8 мая 1887 года на Железной улице на участке, принадлежавшем караимской общине.

С 1882 по 1911 год екатеринославским газзаном служил Самуил Шемарьевич Пигит (1849—1911) — караимский законоучитель, проповедник и писатель, автор сборника проповедей и стихотворений «Иггерет Нидхе Шемуэль».

В октябре 1911 года из кенассы были похищены ценные предметы культа: «5 серебряных верхних украшений свитков закона, 18 серебряных лампад, 2 серебряных подсвечника, 1 серебряный канделябр, серебряные графин, бокал и указатель».

 года кенассу посетил Таврический и Одесский караимский гахам С. М. Шапшал:

В 1930 году кенасса была закрыта и передана театру рабочей молодёжи (ТРАМ). Впоследствии в здании кенассы размещались различные конторы: в 1936 году — «Радгосппостачання», городской профком «Днепропищеторга», в 1942 году, во время немецкой оккупации, — столовая, в 1951 году — контора и склад «Сортоовощ». К концу 1960-х годов кенасса находилась в стадии сноса. Ныне на её месте находится правое крыло здания Облпотребсоюза.

We had a jam packed weekend. It started with a surprise 86th birthday party for Kamron's grandpa, Keller, who is such a good and kind man. I forgot my camera. Had I remembered it, I'd have lots of pictures to document an enormous family (there are 8 children and about eleventeen hundred grandchildren) full of smiles and happiness and love. And then there were my children running laps around the tables in the restaurant with their cousins. I love big families- too bad I'm not up for having one of my own!
We spent the rest of our weekend cheering on our beloved UK Wildcats and hanging out at my dad's farm. It was the perfect way to remedy day light savings time. We turned the children loose and they burned off all their energy so they would go to sleep at their regular time. We grilled out hamburgers and hiked in the woods and rode all over in the four wheeler. My dad let Sadie sit in his lap and steer the four wheeler. It reminded me of when he used to let me sit in his lap and drive up the driveway when I was a little girl. Grandparents are such a treasure!
Hope that your weekend was wonderful!

Q: Why does swift gives an error when I set the offsetBy value equal to endIndex value in the index(_ , offsetBy , limitedBy) function? Here is the code:
1- It's okay when offsetBy is 4 or less
    let someString = "hello"

    if let someIndex = someString.index(someString.startIndex,
                        offsetBy: 4, limitedBy: someString.endIndex){
       someString[someIndex]
    }
    // Prints "o"

2- It's okay when offsetBy is 6 or greater
    if let someIndex = someString.index(someString.startIndex,
                        offsetBy: 6, limitedBy: someString.endIndex){
       someString[someIndex]
    }
    // Prints "nil"

3- But it gives error when offsetBy is 5
    if let someIndex = someString.index(someString.startIndex,
                        offsetBy: 5, limitedBy: someString.endIndex){
       someString[someIndex]
    }
    // error

and the error is:

error: Playground execution aborted: error: Execution was interrupted,
  reason:  EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (code=EXC_I386_INVOP, subcode=0x0). The
  process has been left at the point where it was interrupted, use
  "thread return -x" to return to the state before expression
  evaluation.

A: The problem is that the limit given to index(_:offsetBy:limitedBy:) is an inclusive bound for the result. Therefore with
let someString = "hello"

the index returned by
someString.index(someString.startIndex, offsetBy: 5, limitedBy: someString.endIndex)

will be someString.endIndex, which is a past the end index, and therefore not a valid index to subscript the string with.
A simple solution therefore would be to just add a condition to your if statement to check that the index you get back isn't the endIndex:
let someString = "hello"
let offset = 5

if let someIndex = someString.index(someString.startIndex,
                                    offsetBy: offset,
                                    limitedBy: someString.endIndex
                                    ), someIndex != someString.endIndex {
    print(someString[someIndex])
}

Or a nicer option would be to use the CharacterView's indices property in order to get a collection of valid indices to subscript with (excluding endIndex), and use dropFirst(_:) and first in order to get the index at the given offset:
if let index = someString.characters.indices.dropFirst(offset).first {
    print(someString[index])
}

This takes advantage of the fact that dropFirst(_:) takes an upper bound of elements to drop, returning an empty subsequence if it's larger than the collection's count, as well as the fact that first returns nil for an empty collection.

The FAST Fund exists to provide financial support to Teesside's talented sportspeople who have the ability to reach the very top in their chosen sport.
Image Credit: The Gazette
Case study: Andrew Green
2nd March, 2019
Can our FAST Fund make a big difference to a sportsperson you know – just like it has to disability table tennis player Andrew Green?
We gave Billingham youngster Andrew £4,000 to help with his ping pong progress.
The 19-year-old spent £3,700 on a new made to measure wheelchair specifically designed for table tennis.
And it proved a good investment as GB Development Squad player Andrew said the cash and his new wheelchair have been key in taking his game to the next level.
National junior champion two years ago, the Bishop Auckland club player won silver at the Malmo Open in Sweden in February in his new chair, in Junior Band B.
Andrew said: "It's been really important to have the chair – it's made a huge difference to my game.
"I have to thank the FAST Fund for everything they've done really in helping me progress.
"I'd been in a normal chair for six years and was making do, so I couldn't have pushed on without this one.
"Table tennis means a lot to me. I train about 12, 13 hours a week."
Andrew is currently ranked 14th in Great Britain and third in his category.

Suzan-Lori Parks won the Pulitzer Prize last year for her play "Topdog/Underdog" and became the first African American woman to garner that playwriting laurel. A year before, the Mount Holyoke graduate received a MacArthur Foundation "genius grant" that brought her $500,000.
Now the multi-talented wordsmith is on a national book tour for her debut novel, "Getting Mother's Body" (Random House, 257 pages, $23.95), with a robust first printing of 100,000 copies.
All the honors have not produced an inflated ego for this engaging woman with an effervescent personality. A smile is seldom far from her face.
You recently turned 40. How did that affect you? My husband called everyone we know and threw a big party at our house (in Venice, Calif.). It was great; I got presents, ate cake, drank champagne, ate more cake. I do have a game plan. I'm just starting to play guitar, and in another 40 years I may have the chops to be a really happenin' toothless hot mama blues musician. My husband, who used to play with Muddy Waters, is teaching me.
What impact did winning the Pulitzer Prize have on you? It required me to keep reminding myself not to take myself too seriously. One could blow up or trip on yourself because of something like the Pulitzer. But I'm not that kind of person. I gotta keep going on to the next thing. I've got to not be afraid to play the guitar or sing for people, or continuing to grow. I also want to learn to surf. One could get locked in by the Pulitzer, thinking this is who I am. Doors open with it, but doors in your mind could close.
What is your strongest memory of winning? I finished my novel on April 6th, my play opened on Broadway on April 7th and I won the Pulitzer on April 8th.
What was the genesis of your novel? It's a deep and reverent bow to William Faulkner's "As I Lay Dying," which also has characters on a journey dealing with a dead relative. So many of my plays have been about the dead. But the novel was really born in the landscape of West Texas, where we spent time when my father was with the Army in Vietnam. I love the big sky and arid landscape of that place. The characters came out of that landscape and the story came out of those characters. Then there was Faulkner's novel, which I had read eight years before.
What was it like taking a college class from James Baldwin? He had faith in me long before I even had faith in me. That's the great gift that a writing teacher can give a young writer. You can't overestimate the value of hearing, "Hey, you're good." He was encouraging in a scary way, not a soft mushy way. He teaches you to be tough on yourself.
Why is Suzan-Lori spelled with a "z"? It was the result of a misprint. When I was doing one of my first plays in the East Village, we had fliers printed up and they spelled my name wrong. I was devastated. But the director said, "Just keep it, honey, and it will be fine." And it was.
