[Imposter syndrome](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impostor_syndrome) is a popular term to sling around the web these days. So much so, that when I was starting my career, I remember saying, "hmm. I do feel pretty inadequate. Not sure I'd be comfortable making big decisions or giving a talk about most topics. I guess I have imposter syndrome."

In retrospect, I didn't have imposter syndrome, I had beginner syndrome.

If imposter syndrome was "feeling like an imposter... somebody who doesn't feel like they know what they are expected to know", then beginner syndrome is "not knowing much and not being expected by others to know much" (aka. "actually being a beginner").

Being a beginner isn't comfortable. I remember hearing others talk about impostor syndrome and thinking to myself, "Man, I wish that others thought so highly of my knowledge and skill that I felt inadequate when compared to those expectations." It's a different kind of hard when your work is crap and expectations of you are low.

[Ira Glass](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ira_Glass) talked about these problems, and I really like what he said:

(you can [read the transcript here](https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/309485-nobody-tells-this-to-people-who-are-beginners-i-wish))

The truth is, I still have beginner syndrome. I still look at my code and know it's not good enough. It's the same with the designs I make or interactions that I build. I look at them and I'm disappointed.

Maybe one day I'll be an imposter. I'll "arrive" and public opinion of me will become so great that I can't possibly live up to it, ha ha.

In the mean time, I'll do as he recommends and focus on [the miles]({{site.url}}/2016/09/21/its-about-the-miles/).

The Miccosukee tribe of the Indians of Florida
The Miccosukee tribe of the Indians of Florida essay sample
The Miccosukee tribe of the Indians of Florida is federally recognized. In the earlier days, they were under the Seminole nation. However, with time they were able to organize themselves into a much independent tribe, hence they were offered a federal recognition in 1962.
With this privilege, they were offered a way forward in which they would practice their government and other facilities such as their reserved land. Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida, the heart of the Florida Everglades, was one of the displaced tribes during the Seminole Wars until they were recognized by the state of Florida in 1957 and gained Federal recognition in 1962.
The Federal recognition of 1962 gave the Miccosukee tribe some of their tribal powers in which unlike before they would have an internal government that would have its rulings and the court system. This means that they had their criminal jurisdiction platform where these laws were controlled by the Federal government (Bigorrin.org, 2015). This did legally established the Miccosukee's tribal existence and also their sovereignty, a domestic dependent nation status that was with the United States Government. The tribe gave special districts in which they would have governing bodies in which they would have their duty and powers systems. They had the power to plan, contract and also the power to implement programsthat would ensure there is better law enforcement programs, better education, and also other social aspects of the tribes' lives (Miccosukee.com, 2015).
This Federal recognition of 1962 came with other political power of their own. The tribe now were allowed to have their own where they had to elect a leader that would make sure the never return to their darkest parts of the tribes' history. They also had officers that were bound to enforce laws. They were given authority to have arms and also make an arrest where they saw that law was not followed. They had to enforce the law to have the criminal offenses minimized this was a strategy that was determined to keep the tribe peaceful. This means that they were to try those that they found in the wrong side of the law making the Miccosukee tribe to have their court system. They had some of their own agencies that would carry out the necessary investigations. They would establish a committee in which they would try to come up with the best decision in which the person under trial was persecuted (Native-languages.org, 2015).
Secondly the Miccosukee tribe was also allowed to administer their Indian Reservation land that was under the US Bureau of Indian Affairs. This does mean that they tribe no able to have their own reservation thought the southern Florida State. This decision also came up with them being offered land that was 189, 000 acres. This reservation was principally known as Miccosukee Indian Reservation. Most of these lands are controlled by the tribe that has full ownership of the lands offered to …

Non-COVID-19-Related Deaths Up, Too
TUESDAY, Nov. 24, 2020 — Between March and May 2020, there was a significant increase in non-COVID-19-related deaths over previous years, according to a study published in the December issue of Public Health.
Sheldon H. Jacobson, Ph.D., and Janet A. Jokela, M.D., both from the University of Illinois at Urbana, quantified non-COVID-19-related excess deaths by age group and gender. For the analysis, the authors used the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provisional death data from March 1, 2020, through May 30, 2020, and compared results to 2019 data estimates.
The researchers found a significant increase in excess deaths in 2020 for men aged 15 to 59 years and for women aged 25 to 44 years. This excess number of non-COVID-19 deaths was seen for six of 18 age and gender cohorts. For girls aged 5 to 14 years old, there was a decrease in deaths.
"The concern is that excess deaths will continue to occur during the pandemic, whether it's because people are delaying care for other conditions or because some COVID-19 deaths are going undetected," Jokela said in a statement. "This is a phenomenon that requires ongoing monitoring and investigation."

What It Really Means When Your Nose Starts Bleeding


Why bother buying a watch or bracelet to track your daily activities and calories burned, when your shirt can do it for you? AiQ, a company based in Taiwan that develops smart clothing featuring embedded sensors, has come out with the BioMan shirt that is able to keep track of your body vitals. The BioMan is able to track heart rate, respiration rate and skin temperature. That information can then be sent to a smartphone or other device wirelessly via Bluetooth. Embedded steel threads within the shirt provide the electrical conductivity that allows for vitals sensing. The material can be further customized to potentially measure skin moisture and electrophysiological signals such as EKG, electroencephalography (EEG), or electromyography (EMG). The Bioman shirt is different from other wearable monitors as the sensors are integrated into the garment so that the wearer doesn't have to worry about misplacing or forgetting to wear them. This technology has great potential for not only routine tracking of body vitals, but also to alert care centers in the event of unusual cardiovascular activity.
In addition to BioMan, AiQ offers other smart clothing textiles as well. Its NeonMan clothing line integrates patented LED wire and LED buttons powered by a small removable/rechargeable battery to enhance the safety of night time activities. Its ShieldMan fabric, a wearable Faraday cage, uses a textile consisting of a fine metal mesh distributed evenly inside casual clothing that shields the wearer from electromagnetic radiation. And finally, the ThermoMan fabric line keeps the wearer warm without the use of large heating panels or pads that weigh the wearer down while performing outdoor tasks. The ThermoMan fabric uses uniquely coated stainless steel yarn to ensure the wearer's safety and to maintain fabric softness.

Glue is the story of four boys growing up in the Edinburgh schemes, and about the loyalties, the experiences and the secrets that hold them together into their thirties. As we follow their lives from the 70's into the new century - from punk to techno, from speed to Es - we can see each of them trying to struggle out from under the weight of the conditioning of class and culture, peer pressure and their parents' hopes that maybe their sons will do better than they did. What binds the four of them is the friendship formed by the scheme, their school, and their ambition to escape from both; their loyalty fused in street morality: back up your mates, don't hit women and, most importantly, never grass - on anyone.

Night Time Numbers
Author: Susan L Roth
"Roth uses a variety of papers and fabrics to make the clever, intricate collages that accompany her text. The repetitive rhyme asks readers, "What can you see ?" on the rooftops, in the window, and around the house tonight. The reply is "I can see one monster in the pale moonlight," " two dragons in the pale moonlight," etc. The last spread includes an angel "to keep me safe and sound." Some of the collage creatures could be frightening to little ones, although the constant presence of the mother with the child in every picture is reassuring. Older children will admire the artwork and enjoy identifying the different materials used to make the pictures. They will delight in counting the monsters from 1 to 10 and echoing the rhythmic chant as it is read to them. An unusual book that will fascinate youngsters." - School Library Journal. Narrated by Anthony Call (Star Trek, The Twilight Zone).

BEAUFORT – A 31-year-old Burton man will spend the rest of his life in prison for the 2009 execution-style murders of his ex-girlfriend and her four-year-old son.
At the conclusion of a two-week trial on Wednesday, October 23, jurors sentenced Earnest Daise to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Prosecutors had sought the death penalty.
After feuding on November 15, 2009, Daise entered the Dale home of Jeanine Mullen, a 34-year-old teacher's assistant who was preparing her family to go out to dinner to celebrate Waltfredo Mullen's fourth birthday. He shot and killed Jeanine and her son, and also shot his own son by Jeanine, two-year-old Jeremiah Daise.
In addition to the life without parole sentence, Judge Carmen Mullen sentenced Daise to an additional 70 years in prison for the shooting of Jeremiah and two drug charges.


Digital rights have gained increased attention in the public eye in recent years, and are a growing focus of CJFE's work. In March 2013, CJFE hosted an online discussion about the issue of digital privacy rights, which was highlighted in our 2012-2013 Review of Free Expression in Canada. But even with all of the recent talk about digital surveillance, privacy and your rights, how much do you actually know about online privacy? Do you control what information you post online, and are you aware of who can access it? CJFE intern Spencer Livingstone has put together a quiz to let you test your knowledge of digital rights. Scroll to the bottom of the page to take the quiz!
To read more about your right to online privacy in Canada, read our Privacy, Free Expression & You: Seven things you should know, first published in The Review. Download the PDF, or read the article online below.
Question 1: Is there a connection between privacy and free expression? Answer: B When people's activities can be monitored, they may not feel comfortable acting the same way as when acting privately. Many individuals may give up their privacy in favour of expressing themselves publicly (think about what many people choose to post publicly on Twitter and Facebook), but the important factor here is that it is a choice. It is important for individuals to have the ability to access information, communicate, and act privately without being monitored. Question 2: Why is online privacy important? Answer: A According to Commissioner Cavoukian, "Privacy isn't about hiding. It is about individual dignity, autonomy, & the right to exercise significant control over your own person." The decision to publish personal information and communications publicly, or keep them private, is a choice. It is crucial to understand that every person has the right to their online privacy, regardless of whether or not they have something to hide. Question 3: Is there any need for people's online activities to remain anonymous? Answer: B There are many arguments for why individuals should have the ability to operate anonymously online, but journalists' sources and whistleblowers are an important example of the importance of anonymity and privacy protection. Sources and whistleblowers are often targeted for the information they reveal. Online anonymity helps these sources of information feel safe enough to share important information without fear of being traced and exposed. Question 4: Is the Canadian government restricted in how it can collect the personal information of its citizens? Answer: C PIPEDA became law in 2000, guaranteeing Canadians, among other things, the right to know what organizations collect their personal information; those that do collect information must do so by fair and lawful means and protect the information with appropriate security measures. However, it only applies to private sector organizations – not the government. Although outdated, the Privacy Act came into effect in 1983, requiring the government to only collect private information if it is directly necessary for a program. The individual must be notified of what is going on, the information cannot be disclosed unless the individual consents to it, and the individual may request access to the information kept on them. Question 5: What information that you put on your Facebook page can be shared with the government? Answer: C Facebook has settings that can be altered so that only a person's friends may view the page. You can find more information on how to lockdown your Facebook page here. While this certainly helps, it does not do everything. Facebook revealed that, in the second half of 2012 alone, they received between 9,000 and 10,000 requests from the U.S. government, asking for information on between 18,000 and 19,000 user accounts. Although this is a tiny fraction of the entire Facebook user population, the fact remains that your information, when put on Facebook, belongs to the social networking company, and not you. Question 6: Do search engines retain data regarding its user's searches? Answer: A With each search, the mediating website has access to the user's IP address and individual searches, which they retain. Major search engines, including Google, Bing, and Yahoo, have revealed that they keep track of personal data in order to, among other things, provide better services, thwart security threats, and to keep people from skewing search ranking results. However, they hold onto the information for so long (Google for nine months, Yahoo for up to eighteen months), that it begs the question as to whether they need to keep track of their user's information for so long. This becomes even more interesting when a person uses the same company as both an email host and a search engine, because they can pair a name and information passed over email with a person's search history and IP address.

Don't forget DALA and The Young Novelists this Saturday, May 7.
Folk icon Jim Kweskin will appear at the Circle of Friends Coffeehouse on Saturday, May 14th, at 8PM. Stunning vocalist Samoa Wilson will be joining Jim. She has appeared and recorded several albums with him. Jim Kweskin was the founder of the Jim Kweskin Jug Band, the legendary group that started in Boston in the 1960s and played Club 47. With Fritz Richmond, Geoff and Maria Muldaur, Bob Siggins and Bruno Wolfe the jugband successfully modernized the sounds of pre–World War II rural music. On National Public Radio's Fresh Air, rock historian Ed Ward listed, among the most important bands of the early 60's, the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, the Byrds, "and the Jim Kweskin Jug Band." Ward added: "I'm not kidding." They toured America, headlining concerts with artists like Janis Joplin, Peter Paul & Mary, Linda Ronstadt and The Doors as opening acts. They appeared often on national television and were, by some accounts, "the coolest band of a cool decade."
Jim Kweskin is probably best known as a singer and bandleader, but he also created one of the bedrock guitar styles of the folk revival, adapting the ragtime-blues fingerpicking of artists like Blind Boy Fuller to the more complex chords of pop and jazz. He has maintained a remarkably consistent musical vision since his jug band days, continuing to explore traditional folk and blues with the sophisticated sensibility of a jazz musician and jazz with the communal simplicity of a folk artist.
THE BLACK BOX New England Artist Series presents No Static on Friday, May 6 at 8 p.m. Playing the music of Steely Dan, No Static features 10 Boston-area musicians including Fil Ramil (Lead Vocals/Guitar), Lydia Harrell (Vocals), Rosemary St. George (Vocals/Keys), Mitch Rodriguez (Lead Guitar), Rob Currier (Lead Keyboards), Jamie Sheldon (Bass), Barry Lit (Drums), Brad Kohl (Sax), Walter Platt (Trumpet), and Robert Holfelder (Trombone).
The group has performed Steely Dan's bluesy jazz-rock music for more than a decade. Tickets are $20 and may be purchased at www.THEBLACKBOXonline.com or at the door. A cash bar is available.

A: You need to change your thinking. It is not the data "of a cell" A cell is a view object. It displays information from your data model to the user, and collects input from the user.
You asked "...how can I read the data of the cell?" Short answer: Don't. You should be saving changes into your data model as you go, so once you have an index path, you should use it to index into your data model and get the data from there.
You need to figure out which IndexPath the tapped button belongs to, and fetch the data for that IndexPath from your data model.
If you look at my answer on this thread I show an extension to UITableView that lets you figure out which IndexPath contains a button. Almost the exact same appraoch should work for collection views. The idea is simple:

*

*In the button action, get the coordinates of the button's frame.

*Ask the owning table/collection view to convert those coordinates to
an index path

*Use that index path to fetch your data.
The only difference is that for collection views, the method you use to figure out which IndexPath the button maps to is indexPathForItem(at:) instead of indexPathForRow(at:)

A: I suggest you add a property to your cell
class MyCell: UITableViewCell {
var tapAction: (() -> Void)?
...
@IBAction func likeButton(_ sender: UIButton) {
  tapAction?()
  ...
}

}
and set it in view controller
 func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
  ...
  cell.tapAction = { [weak self] in
  // call to database or whatever here and then reload cell
  tableView.reloadRows(at: [indexPath], with: .automatic)
  ...
}

In general, cell should never care what its indexPath is, nor should it make calls to superview

2007 IN MONTANA – A Grizzly Nearby!
Mary Jo Murphy of Ventura, California tells her grizzly bear story. This happened when she and a friend went to Glacier National Park in Wyoming.
"It was early June and I was very thrilled to be surrounded by the magnificent park. I know now that our idea about being quiet as we walked along the trail was a wrong one. By preferring silence, we had agreed, we'd be able to enjoy the peacefulness of the park.
As my companion, John, and I walked on a not so remote trail he heard some twigs breaking near us. He was not alarmed and didn't tell me. It was early June. We passed a few other hikers, who chatted noisily. I was happy to finally find a peaceful place to eat our picnic lunch.
We climbed onto a large rock and he began handing me the day's fare, bread and Liverwurst. My lap was filled with fragrant foodstuffs, when John pointed to my left. I was shocked to see the back of a grizzly quietly move down the hill. He was only about 30 or 40 yards from us. We could see the hump on his back.

Several times my Grandmother (Carol) told me the story of where she met Grandpa (Tom), it is a cute story as they met in Hepburn Springs at a dance. They met in the 1930s at the Hepburn Mineral Springs Reserve Pavilion (now the Pavilion Cafe).
The Pavilion was used for community events especially regular dances, Carol loved to dance, between dances she was introduced to Tom by a friend, Tom did not like to dance (because he did not know how). It turned out they were quite smitten with each other and on the quiet Carol gave Tom some dancing lessons and they were soon swinging around the floor with ease. Obviously all went well and they got married and were very proud of their five children and grandchildren.
During the summer the Pavilion was changed to a bathing pool, the floor was filled with mineral spring water to the height of about four bricks up the wall and below the bench seat that is around the inside of the walls. You can see the stained bricks in the photo of the corner wall, bench seat and original italian tiles.
The Pavilion is one of my favourite places to visit in Hepburn Springs, the octagonal framed ceiling is amazing to look at, it must of been so difficult to make many decades ago.
The photo of the 'cafe shop' shows that section was most likely the stage for bands or plays. The stain glassed windows are just stunning, the room was refurbished for the Cafe as it had been abandoned for a few decades.
The Pavilion building is very interesting and has a history that is very unique and hopefully will be there forever. A 'must see' attraction and a it is great for a coffee, wine, a meal, even a party or wedding.
Take a few minutes and try to imagine what it would have been like all those years ago, in the Pavilion, tasting the mineral springs, have a picnic, walk around and spot the original structures and old trees still there in the reserve.


"This is how you squeeze a pitch Miguel, but you have a much bigger version of this ball squeezer called a catcher's mitt"
It may be indicative of the times when closers are a pretty fungible asset–even though the elusive "established closer" is highly overvalued–but Brandon League was a pretty good closer last year, and he doesn't seem to be nearly as valuable as he's performed. He doesn't post traditionally high strikeout rates, but an elite-level groundball rate has helped League post 3.52 and 3.09 xFIPs over the past two seasons with the Mariners.
League's trade value took a major hit this year, as the new collective bargaining agreement made it essentially impossible for a team that trades for League to receive any draft pick compensation if League leaves in the offseason. So where good closers have had some value in the past, League's low K/9 and low supplementary value make him a far less attractive trade candidate going into this season than may have been expected when the Mariners traded Brandon Morrow for League and Johermyn Chavez.
So now the Mariners are stuck in a strange spot. In December the A's traded Andrew Bailey to the Red Sox for a really ugly package. Bailey has three years of team control left, and his high strikeout rate match up with the traditional paradigm of a closer. It's hard to find any positive in the trade for Bailey for the A's except for the about $5.7 million in salary relief they received, while getting worse competitively.
League will likely be viewed as a lesser-closer than Bailey. While the Mariners may be trading from a better position of strength at the trade deadline, League's $5 million salary, and whatever is remaining of it when he's traded, will have to factor into his trade value.
But what will the market for League be like this offseason? The market for sub-elite closers was fairly slow to develop this offseason. Jonathan Papelbon and Heath Bell signed monster deals early, but Ryan Madson—the next best closer on the market—had to settle for a one year deal for $8.5 million. Both Paplebon and Madson averaged more than a strikeout per inning, while Bell was coming off a down year but has averaged more than 10 K/9 in two seasons prior to 2011.
Closers aren't always paid using intellectual measure. Saves often define the price of closers, and though the save may be the least predictive stat not called a run-batted-in, another driving factor to price and position of a pitcher is strikeout rate.
Of all those pitchers, only Rodney has recent extended closer experience. He was coming off a season with strikeout rates in the low-sevens but had two seasons prior to that where he struck out more than a batter per inning. It's noteworthy that Brandon League will be only 29 when the season is over, so presumably he'll be more valuable than the other guys on the list. It's also worth noting that he is an extreme groundball pitcher who has been very effective using non-traditional means in high-leverage situations.
That said, one of the major things that statistical analysis has taught us is that market value and actual value are quite different. League's actual value is far higher than his market value. So while conventional wisdom says that a non-contending Mariners team should look to trade League, or extend him, their best bet is probably to do neither of those things.
The Mariners can probably only get a bad prospect in a trade involving League, and maybe partial salary relief. When the season is over, if the Mariners have traded League, the chances of him returning are probably greatly diminished. If they let him test free agency though, there's a good chance he won't like what he finds, and will eventually return to Seattle at a price tag that is equal to his market value, but significantly below his actual value. Even if League isn't the team's future closer, an arm like his is a welcome addition to any bullpen. In order to maximize League's value to the team, they may just have to let free agency run his course.
If the Mariners could sign League to a deal somewhere in the range of two-years, $7 million, they'd be almost guaranteed to get their money's worth.
What should the Mariners do with Brandon League?
I have found it hard to get enthused by League, especially given his cost. I wouldn't be in favor of paying him any more than hr's getting this season. Z can always find a replacement from The Pile.
I like League a lot, but damn, he sure knows how to put you on the edge of your seat sometimes hah.

Mikel Gives Cryptic Response After Being Asked About His Future At Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough midfielder John Obi Mikel says he is keeping his options open regarding his future at the club.
The Nigerian's contract expires in the summer, and when asked about his plans, the former Chelsea player said he is just enjoying his time on Teesside:
"I want to enjoy my football and enjoy winning games with this club, these players are an amazing group of guys.
"Every time we win a game you see that feeling of wanting to be in the Premier League and that is something I want to keep enjoying with them until the end of the season. And then we see where we are."
Mikel joined on a six-month deal from Chinese Super League side Tianjin Teda back in January and has been a regular for Tony Pulis's team since his arrival at the club.
The 31-year-old has played all six of Boro's league games since the beginning of February, having only missed the FA Cup fourth-round replay defeat to Newport County.
Mikel reportedly rejected five other clubs to make the move to the Riverside stadium. Premier League side Crystal Palace, Italian club Roma, Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg as well as Aston Villa and Derby were all said to be in the mix.
However, the midfield enforcer was keen to return to England and he seems to be enjoying Middlesbrough's battle for promotion.

Do I Really Need an Extended Car Warranty?
You'll have to weigh the peace of mind from extended coverage versus the extra cost. But first understand what additional protection you'd get beyond what's covered in the factory-included warranty.
Auto Loans, Loans
You're about to sign the papers for your new car when the dealer solemnly advises you to buy an extended car warranty to cover repairs after the included warranty expires. You squirm. The idea of more coverage sounds nice, but is this a good deal?
In fact, there really isn't an easy or quick answer about whether to buy an extended warranty. But making a smart decision begins with understanding how certain warranties — mainly the bumper-to-bumper and powertrain warranties — work together and what they cover.

Included car warranties
All new cars come with a variety of warranties. The most notable is the bumper-to-bumper "factory" warranty, so named because while it's sold by the dealer, it's backed by the carmaker. New car warranties remain in effect for at least three years or 36,000 miles. The bumper-to-bumper warranty covers repairs to everything on the vehicle except "wear items" — those parts that wear out such as tires, brake pads and windshield wipers. The warranty doesn't pay for routine maintenance such as oil changes and tire rotation.
New cars come with a bumper-to-bumper 'factory' warranty for at least three years or 36,000 miles.
Over the years, manufacturers have realized that including a stronger warranty is a good selling point. Carmakers such as Hyundai have boosted sales in part by including a five-year, 60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty. Manufacturers known for dependability, such as Honda and Toyota, have shorter warranties because their reputation is, in a sense, their warranty.
Powertrain warranties
Even after the bumper-to-bumper warranty expires, there's still the included powertrain warranty, which covers the cost of repairs to everything that moves the car down the road: the engine, transmission and suspension. These warranties also are considered effective sales tools and have been lengthened to increase sales. For example, Chevrolet includes a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty.
Extended car warranties
So where does an extended warranty fit into this picture? If your car breaks down after the bumper-to-bumper warranty expires, you'll have to pay to get it fixed. But if you bought that extended warranty, as the dealer recommended, the repair will be made at no cost to you.
Extended warranties can lengthen the bumper-to-bumper warranty by 20,000 miles or more.
Extended warranties come in a dizzying combination of mileage extensions and deductibles that can lengthen the bumper-to-bumper warranty by 20,000 miles or more. Few details are available online because the dealer wants you to contact it directly — and get a sales pitch. Extended warranties often are bundled with other types of coverage, like a free rental car, and given names such as the platinum or silver plan. Carefully review what items are covered by the extended warranty before you buy it.
Also, the dealer might sell "third-party warranties," which usually cost less but are issued by a company not connected with the carmaker. These warranties might require you to pay for repairs yourself and then apply for reimbursement.
Risk vs. savings
At the heart of the extended warranty issue are these questions: How likely is the car to break down? And if it does, will the repairs be serious — and pricey — or minor? Cars are increasingly complex, and dealers often pitch extended warranties by saying that automotive computer malfunctions are extremely expensive to fix.
Consider these questions when you're deciding whether to get an extended car warranty:
Are you willing to pass up the extended warranty, saving money on your total monthly car costs now but possibly having to pay for repairs yourself?
Is the peace of mind that you won't have unexpected expenses worth the cost of the extended warranty?
Will the cost of repairs exceed what you pay for the warranty?
Extra profit for dealers
Dealers often pitch extended warranties as a way to "protect your investment" — even though a car is hardly ever an investment because it steadily loses value. The cost of an extended warranty might seem low, particularly since the dealer usually offers it for a small additional monthly payment to defray what he says could be astronomical repair bills.
Extended warranties are high profit items for the dealer and their cost is highly negotiable.
It might help you decide if you knew that extended warranties are big profit centers for dealers. Furthermore, it's hard to know the true cost of the warranty if you negotiate on a monthly payment basis.
Additional warranties
Carmakers offer several other automotive warranties, some of which are not as common. These include:
Roadside assistance: Covers towing costs and tire changing if the car breaks down during travel
Rust or corrosion warranty: Covers rust in sheet metal parts of the car
Federal emissions warranty: Covers repairs needed to correct defects in parts that would prevent the car from meeting Environmental Protection Agency standards
Used-car warranties
One of the benefits of buying a certified pre-owned car from a new car dealership is that a factory warranty is included. Even so, the dealer will probably offer to sell you an extension to that warranty for an additional price.
Even if you buy a used car that isn't certified, you can usually still purchase an extended factory warranty, assuming the car isn't too old or doesn't have that many miles on it. Before you buy the additional warranty, make sure you understand how much remains — if any — of the original warranty and if it is transferable. In most cases, all or part of a warranty will be transferred to the next buyer. Check the manufacturer's website for details. In some cases, you might decide the powertrain warranty is enough coverage.
Protect your warranty
Regular maintenance to your car is necessary to guarantee that a warranty won't be voided. A warranty will remain valid no matter who performs the repairs, meaning you can use your own mechanic rather than the dealer's service department. However, it's a good idea to keep the receipts as proof that the work was done.
An alternative strategy
You can buy the extended warranty later and keep your money in your pocket for now.
When dealers pitch the warranty, they'll usually conveniently leave out the fact that you can buy an extended warranty at any point before the included factory warranty expires. So, in a sense, you can hang onto your money for three years and then buy an extended warranty if you decide you need one. By then, you'll have an idea of how reliable the car has been. Or you might at that point decide to trade it in or sell it — meaning you won't need a warranty.

The location of heaven is something about which many have asked. The Bible assumes heaven is a real place and mentions it often. In 2 Corinthians 12:1-4, the apostle Paul referred to this heaven or "paradise" as a heavenly realm or as the "third heaven." This location was separate from the first heaven (the skies above) and the second heaven (the expanse of outer space). Instead heaven exists in a non-physical realm in which God is perfectly present.
While the location of heaven is non-physical and unobservable to living beings on earth at present, the Bible describes a final state of existence in which there will be a new heaven, new earth, and new heavenly city (Revelation 21—22). At this future time, all of God's people will dwell with Him in this new realm for all eternity.
It is clear that the current heaven is non-physical and is a place where God dwells, but what else is known of its location? Hebrews 11 indicates that the believers of the past are already there with God. The Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:9-10 teaches, "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." Heaven is the place of the Father where His name is revered, His kingdom reigns, and His will is done.
Job 1 and 2 offer some additional information regarding what heaven is like. Job 1:6-12 notes that at least at one time Satan had access to come before God and His holy angels and make requests of Him. This heavenly realm is also mentioned in Ephesians 6:10-18 as the realm in which the spiritual forces of evil exist. This does not mean there are evil spirits in heaven, but that there is a spiritual realm in which heaven exists as well as hell and evil spiritual forces.
Revelation 4 offers a vision of the apostle John entering heaven through a door in the sky. He then finds himself in heaven before the throne of the Lord. Again, this is a vision in which John is in the spiritual realm beyond this world. No other identifying location was mentioned, though there were times when references were made of looking down at what was taking place on earth. According to Revelation 7:1-4, heaven is clearly beyond the earth and larger than the earth since the angels were standing at the four corners of the earth.
In summary, heaven exists in a non-physical realm in which God is present, along with angels, believers, and other creatures apart from the sinful curse of the world. This heavenly realm will one day transition into a final state that includes a new heaven, new earth, and new heavenly city where God and His children will dwell forever (Revelation 21—22).

Q: "Dependents.Count" statement restarting macro when used in "Worksheet_SelectionChange" Sub I am trying to get number of dependents of selected range (if number of cells in selection is one). When I use following code it works without any error for all cells (for cells without any dependents and for cells having dependents)
'Case 1
Sub Example()
    Dim rng As Excel.Range
    Set rng = Excel.Selection
    If Target.Count = 1 Then
        If HasDependents(rng) Then
            MsgBox rng.Dependents.Count & " dependancies found."
        Else
            MsgBox "No dependancies found."
        End If
    End If
End Sub

Public Function HasDependents(ByVal Something As Excel.Range) As Boolean
    On Error Resume Next
    HasDependents = Something.Dependents.Count
End Function

But when same logic is used in Worksheet_SelectionChange (as shown in following code)
'Case 2
Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
    If Target.Count = 1 Then
        If HasDependents(Target) Then
            MsgBox Target.Dependents.Count & " dependancies found."
        Else
            MsgBox "No dependancies found."
        End If
    End If
End Sub

Public Function HasDependents(ByVal Something As Excel.Range) As Boolean
    On Error Resume Next
    HasDependents = Something.Dependents.Count
End Function

it works for cells not having any dependents, but for cells having dependents "Dependents.Count" restarts macro. After executing
HasDependents = Something.Dependents.Count

Statement, macro restarts and executes
Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

again. My question is why macro is restarting in second case after executing "Dependents.Count"?  For "Worksheet_SelectionChange" I have put the code in Sheet Code area not in module.

A: Asking for the Dependents property appears to be triggering the cell selection event. Additionally, whenever no dependents are found an Error 1004: No cells were found. was thrown. The retrieval of the dependents appears to be recursive; going into each found as a dependent to find another layer of dependents.
I've stabilized your process by adding a call to disable the Application.EnableEvents property so that the routine was not being called by itself.
Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
    If Target.Count = 1 Then
        On Error GoTo bm_Err_Exit
        Dim dc As Long
        Application.EnableEvents = False
        dc = Target.Dependents.Count
        If CBool(dc) Then
            'MsgBox Target.Address(0, 0) & Chr(10) & Chr(10) & _
                    dc & " dependancies found."
            Debug.Print Target.Address(0, 0) & Chr(10) & _
                    dc & " dependancies found."
        Else
            'never reaches here; error 1004 is thrown when no dependents
            'MsgBox "No dependancies found."
            Debug.Print "No dependancies found."
        End If
    End If
bm_Safe_Exit:
    Application.EnableEvents = True
    Exit Sub
bm_Err_Exit:
    Debug.Print Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description
    Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Basic error control reported the 1004 errors when the current select had no dependents.

Liz Macpherson and colleagues write in The Conversation (2.8.16) about the history of water allocation and resource management in the northern, largely undeveloped parts of Australia, and how Indigenous people have for most of the period since colonisation been excluded from this process.
'In May, the Northern Territory government granted a major water licence for a cattle station near Pine Creek, west of Kakadu National Park, to use almost 14 billion litres of water a year to irrigate crops.
'In response, the Northern Land Council, which represents Aboriginal landholders, called for a moratorium on all further water allocations in the Territory, claiming the government had not fully consulted the community about the licence.
