Q: Updating a child object in React with UseState (and connecting it back to parent object) I am trying to build a prototype of a master/detail type of use case in React and material-ui, using a simple list of objects, and a dialog for editing and saving an item in the list. I am updating the visit, a child of the user object, but I can't figure out how to 1. integrate the modified visit item back with the parent user object and 2. where I would do this and where I would make the api call to save the user with the updated visit object.
My test api looks like:

*

*GET /users/ => returns user object as: {id, name, visits:[{id, visited}]}

*PUT /users/ same object

I have 3 main components I'm working with:

*

*UserVisitList.tsx (matches api of a user object with array of 'visit' objects)

*An individual 'visit' item with edit icon button (UserVisit.tsx)

*An Edit dialog to change one piece of state in a 'visit' (EditVisitDialog.tsx).

*GetUser function in useEffect is just a file that returns a user object with visits.

UserVisitList.tsx (this is placed in App.tsx)
export const UserVisitList: React.FC = () => {
  const [user, setUser] = useState<User>({});
  const [open, setOpen] = useState<boolean>(false);
  const [visit, setVisit] = useState<Visit>({});

  const onOkClick = (visit: Visit) => {
    // set the active visit?
    setVisit(visit);
    setOpen(true);
  };

  const onDialogCloseClick = () => {
    setOpen(false);
  };

  const onChangeHandler = (e: React.ChangeEvent<HTMLInputElement>) => {
    // update the visited prop of active visit
    setVisit({ ...visit, visited: e.currentTarget.value });
  };
  useEffect(() => {
    setUser(GetData("Jane"));
  }, []);

  return (

      <Typography variant="h4">Visits for {user.name}</Typography>
      <List>
        <>
          <Grid key={user.id} container>
            <Grid item xs={12}>
              {user.visits?.map(function (visit: Visit, i) {
                return (
                  <UserVisit
                    key={visit.id}
                    visit={visit}
                    onEditClick={() => onOkClick(visit)}
                  />
                );
              })}
            </Grid>
          </Grid>

          {open && (
            <EditVisitDialog
              visit={visit}
              name={user.name}
              onChangeHandler={onChangeHandler}
              onCloseHandler={onDialogCloseClick}
            ></EditVisitDialog>
          )}
        </>
      </List>

  );
};

export default UserVisitList;

UserVisit.tsx:
interface IVisitProp {
  visit: Visit;
  onEditClick: () => void;
}
export default function UserVisit({ visit, onEditClick }: IVisitProp) {
  return (
    <ListItem>
      <ListItemText primary={visit.visited} />
      <ListItemIcon>
        <IconButton onClick={onEditClick} edge="start">
          <EditIcon />
        </IconButton>
      </ListItemIcon>
      <ListItemSecondaryAction>
        <IconButton onClick={() => console.log("del not implemented")}>
          <DeleteIcon />
        </IconButton>
      </ListItemSecondaryAction>
    </ListItem>
  );
}

EditVisitDialog.tsx:
 interface IProps {
  visit: Visit;
  name?: string;
  onChangeHandler: (e: React.ChangeEvent<HTMLInputElement>) => void;
  onCloseHandler: () => void;
}
export default function EditVisitDialog({
  visit,
  name,
  onChangeHandler,
  onCloseHandler
}: IProps) {
  return (

      <Dialog open={true}>
        <DialogTitle style={{ textAlign: "center" }}>
          {" "}
          Edit Visit for {name}
        </DialogTitle>
        <DialogContent>

            Visited
            <input
              type="text"
              onChange={onChangeHandler}
              value={visit.visited}
            />

        </DialogContent>
        <DialogActions>
          <Grid container justify="center">
            <Button onClick={onCloseHandler} variant="outlined">
              Close
            </Button>
            <Divider />
            <Button onClick={onCloseHandler} variant="outlined">
              Save
            </Button>
          </Grid>
        </DialogActions>
      </Dialog>

  );
}

I have a feeling I'm going about this the wrong way, like how I'm handling state. I put the code in a semi-working sandbox here: https://codesandbox.io/s/master-detail-with-dialog-wnlsz . I can't get the updated visit object back to the user. And I also would like to know where I would make the call to save the user to the api once I have the visit connected back to the user.
Should I not be doing it this way?  What would be a more straight-forward way, if any, to handle this simple use case. Like I said, I don't think I'm doing it quite right. Updating data in React is very different than what I'm used to (eg getting ids via callbacks, updating dom, ajax, etc).

A: A Bunch of Rambling Thoughts
Generally you want the components higher-up in the tree to be handling the state, which you have done a good job of.  Though I will say in this case that it's fine for a component to handle its own temporary state, like the text which has been entered but not submitted.
Let's think about what information we will need in order to make the API update call and that will guide us towards knowing what values we need to use for our state.  We are trying to update the date for a specific visit for a specific user.  So we need to know the value to set, but we also need to know both the user id and the visit id in order to update the right visit.  Potentially our API calls take the whole updated user object and the component is responsible for making a version with the altered date, but still: we need to know which visit id we are dealing with.  Right now we can get that from visit.id.
One way to approach this would be to store just the id of the visit that we are editing in UserVisitList.  Instead of having states open and visit we would have a state editingVisitId which is either a number or null.  We know a dialog is open if editingVisitId !== null and we can get the contents for the dialog by calling user.visits.find( visit => visit.id === editingVisitId ) to find the right visit.  The onChange would be handled within the EditVisitDialog, but our UserVisitList would pass down on an onClose function which takes the new visit text value as its argument.  EditVisitDialog would be responsible for calling onClose with e.target.value.
But moving state up is always good, so it's fine to store the input value in UserVisitList like you have done.  I was at first concerned that if we did that we wouldn't be able to see if the value was changed, but I see now that we have a user state which is separate from the visit state so there's no trouble!
I've noticed that your types User and Visit have all of their fields optional (?:) which can lead to annoyances when we go to use those objects.  I would recommend that you remove the question marks and if you want to have an incomplete object somewhere in your app, you can use Partial<User> or Partial<Visit>; though alternatively you can keep the fields optional and type a required version with Required<User> or Required. When we declare that an object variable must be complete, it makes life easier because we can know for sure that the property which we are trying to access will be set.  GetData is an example where it doesn't make sense than an API would return an incomplete object.  It should either return a complete object or return null or undefined if called with an invalid name.
An Actual Answer
Your state is fine and your onChange event handling is fine.  Everything we need to do comes after the "Save" button is clicked.  We don't want to call the API until that point.  If we were to call the API with onChange it would get called with every character that they type and we would have to call it again to revert those changes if they click "Close".  We definitely do not want that.  So the "Save" event handler is for sure the right place to be calling the API.  Right now EditVisitDialog gets one callback which it calls on both "Close" and "Save", but we will change this to be two separate ones (onCloseHandler and onSaveHandler).
I'll start by going to MockApi.ts to mock an edit function so we know what our handler needs to call.  The arguments and return types are up to you since this isn't an actual API.  Do we pass the complete User object, or just the fields that we want to change?  Do we pass the id as a separate argument or do we get it from the User argument?  We probably return the updated User, but maybe we return a boolean indicating success or failure.  Do we have a separate method just to update a visit, or is this just a particular instance of a general user update method?  I arbitrarily decided on a signature that takes a complete User and returns a complete User.
async updateUser(user: User): Promise<User>

I came up with a handler that looks like this:
  const onDialogSaveClick = async () => {
    // early exit to avoid errors - but sould never be true
    if (!user) return;
    //close the open dialog
    setOpen(false);
    // validate/normalize the value here
    // apply the changed visit to user
    const editedUser = {
      ...user,
      visits: user.visits.map((v) =>
        v.id === visit.id
          ? { ...visit, visited: validateVisitText(visit.visited) }
          : v
      )
    };
    // post changes to the api and update user state with the response
    try {
      const apiResponse = await MockApi.updateUser(editedUser);
      setUser(apiResponse);
    } catch (error) {
      console.log(error);
    }
  };

You can do validation of data on the frontend, backend, both, or neither.  I coded this with the idea of both in mind.  So our onDialogSaveClick will update the user state with the new value returned from the API even though in this case apiResponse will always equal editedUser.
This try/catch and async/await stuff is because wanted to make the mock API more like a real API with asynchronous calls.
Here's a link to my CodeSandbox Fork.  Mostly I changed MockApi.ts and UserVisitList.tsx with minor changes to EditVisitDialog.tsx.

Jim Carrey: "Hollywood Elites Eat Whole Babies for Christmas" (Know the Truth)
December 30, 2017	2	By Michael
A new news about Jim Carrey has run like wildfire on the Internet, and is that it was claimed that the actor had said that Hollywood elites "eat whole babies for Christmas." And all in spite of the fact that it came from a website known for publishing news without contrast and of dubious truthfulness.
According to the YourNewsWire website , Carrey recently made a farce about the "dark forces" in the entertainment industry after a screening in New York of his Netflix documentary "Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond." The website does not mention exactly when or where this screening took place, but he quotes the actor who told the attendees: "The children are fattened up for the Christmas table like geese and turkeys … These people believe that the more they have suffered the child, you better know. "
The website cites Carrey saying he hates parties because of the "dark energy throbbing around Tinsel Town." "It's a Hollywood thing influenced by the old-school satanism," the actor added. Carrey is also quoted as saying: "Have you ever noticed how all the homeless children you see throughout the year begin to disappear at Christmas? Do you think it's because they found a home, found refuge, found love and warmth? Christmas is the time of satanic killing. They are determined to pervert the most beautiful time of the year in a festival of suffering and blood. "
In spite of how crazy this all sounds, we have investigated the situation and we can say that Carrey never made any of the comments mentioned above. Also, if the actor had actually publicly accused Hollywood elites of "eating babies," YourNewsWire is unlikely to be the only source of information about it. Anyway, all this is nonsense.
In fact, the blog has the habit of attributing strange observations to the comedian. Shortly before, the same website alleged that Carrey said that Apple's new Face ID technology will lead to a "New Totalitarian World Order".
Then, a video (in English) which echo this news, as well as everything related to Jim Carrey and the Illuminati.

Launch of the first French organic banana variety at SIA - Eric de Lucy, UGPBAN:
"We are experiencing a global revolution in the history of the banana"
The first French organic banana variety, Pointe d'Or, was presented at SIA 2020. It took 20 years of research for CIRAD and UGPBAN to develop a non-GMO banana, a cross-breed which is untreated and naturally resistant to black Sigatoka. Grown in the French West Indies, this banana meets the French organic specifications. "What we are experiencing is a global revolution in the history of the banana. This banana is unique in the world. It is quite an adventure and I am personally emotional about the fact that we developed such an exceptional product," explained Eric de Lucy, president of UGPBAN, during a press conference at SIA.
An exclusive partnership with Carrefour
Research continues post-harvest, but the Pointe d'Or banana will already be available from this week in the Carrefour BIO stores of the Ile-de-France region. "A new and constructive relationship has been established between researchers and producers, as well as with supermarkets," explains Michel Eddi, chairman and CEO of CIRAD. "Because meeting the expectations of the consumers and creating value for the producers can only happen through an intelligent alliance with mass distribution."
Pierre Monteux, general director of UGPBAN and Benoît Soury, Director of the Carrefour Organic Market, during the signing of the new organic banana variety from the French West Indies.
Today at Carrefour, 10% of the volumes sold in stores are organic, and 30% for the bananas. For the year 2020, the supermarket chain will have exclusive rights to the marketing of the Pointe d'Or variety. According to Xavier Martin, operational director at UGPBAN, "there is a strong commitment from Carrefour to sell the entire production, both the organic production and the one in transition."
A variety that had to be discovered
"We cannot reason in the same way as for the Cavendish variety," explains Tino Dambas, one of the 6 producers of Pointe d'Or, based in Guadeloupe. "The Pointe d'Or is not the same banana. It doesn't behave the same, it is not grown or packaged in the same way."
Indeed, once the variety had been created, it took several years to deploy it and test the export process, including the packaging and export conditions, as well as the ripening process. "We were faced with a number of problems which took about 5 years to solve. The Pointe d'Or was not ripening like the Cavendish, so we had to rediscover the whole export process," explains Marcus Hery, director of the Tropical Technical Institute.
In 2019, the Pointe d'Or was tested on a large scale, with 35 hectares planted in Guadeloupe and Martinique. 1,000 tons of this new variety are expected in 2020 with the hope of reaching 2,000 tons in 2021. These volumes are confidential. Knowing that the annual banana consumption in France is around 650,000 tons, the partners claim to be very enthusiastic about this adventure and determined to put in place the means necessary for the consumer to adopt the new variety, in order to increase the production volumes.
Tino Dambas, Pointe d'Or producer
Consumers will need to be educated
The Pointe d'Or has been described as "smoother", with a taste "that stays longer in the mouth" than for the Cavendish. However, it is also more fragile, more likely to get brown fast after handling. This characteristic could curb the customer's enthusiasm to buy. In order to overcome this issue, Carrefour has planned to train his teams in the stores on the precautions to use when placing the product on the shelves, and to communicate and educate the consumer - with totems, animations in stores and stickers - about the variety and its differences.
Laurent Carrere, sales manager for bananas and organic products at Carrefour, also underlines the significant operational flexibility in terms of volume delivery that will be required from Carrefour. "As distributors, we are not used to this. With the Pointe d'Or, we are going to adapt completely to the production rhythm of the producer, which is rather new for a distributor."

Isthmus Engineering has enjoyed being a part of St. Paul's Lowertown neighborhood since 2014. A woman-owned transportation engineering firm, Isthmus was founded in 2002 with the vision of supporting quality design through the efficient use of technology.
The Isthmus 25-member team is focused on the design of Minnesota's roads and transit systems which help safely move passengers, pedestrians, and cyclists. Isthmus believes that employees who have priorities that are important to them outside of work bring more to their work each day. To support this belief, Isthmus extends each of their 25 team members the autonomy to set their own working hours and to work remotely as needed.
These simple practices have enabled Isthmus attract and retain women engineers at much higher rates than the industry norm. A recent study by the American Society of Civil Engineers found that while 40% of civil engineering graduates are women, they make up only 14% of the civil engineering workforce. Isthmus takes pride in the fact that 52% of their professional staff are women engineers.


IoT-based scientific research has recently become an imperative component in monitoring human daily lives. The IoT has created an explosion of sensor data due to the increased number of devices with embedded sensors. This ranges from smart watches and smartphones to healthcare wearable and head-mounted devices. The Internet has drastically changed the way we live, moving interactions between people at a virtual level in several contexts spanning from professional life to social relationships. The IoT has the potential to add a new dimension to this process by enabling communications with and among mobile phones and smart devices, thus leading to the vision of obtrusiveness, or in other words, "anytime, anywhere" computing and communications. Additionally, the IoT is a key enabler for the realization of future embedded world as it allows for the interactions with/between the tiny smart things leading to an effective integration of information into the digital world. The basic idea of this concept is the pervasive presence around us of a variety of things or objects - such as tiny sensors, actuators, mobile phones, u-things, etc. - which, through unique communication and interaction schemes, are able to communicate with each other and cooperate with their neighbors through wireless communication to provide quality services for users. The challenges and opportunities arising from a proper integration of the IoT with mobile computing and applications create a fascinating research field that deserves more in-depth investigations. One the one hand, mobile devices are expected to become the joining link between connected smart objects, the Internet, and end-users. Thus, the coupling among mobile technology, such objects and an embedded infrastructure constitutes the Mobile and Embedded Internet of Things. The smart IoT has the potential to revolutionize future software and hardware applications by influencing the real world to achieve better quality of life for the next generation.

Inspired BlogThe RV Brazil Diaries
By Kelly McMurtrie
June 2nd
A few months ago, we officially kicked off our international expansion in Sao Paulo, Brazil and sent two up-and-coming RV-ers down there to join Carlos for the launch.When they arrived in Brazil, they had no office and no place to live. They didn't speak a word of Portugese, they hadn't yet signed the contract on our first business partner, and no one south of the equator had ever heard of the name "Red Ventures."
Luckily, we caught all of this on film. See what happens when people stop being polite start a new life in a new country and work together to build an international business from scratch – 5,000 miles from home. Watch the all-new "RV Brazil Diaries" below!
PS: Why are we doing this?
We'll be honest: This is as much about financial gains for RV as it is about creating new and exciting opportunities for employees. We're all about "staying uncomfortable" and creating excitement at home and abroad, and this South American exploration will help us reach new global partners, tap new talent pools, and create new experiences and opportunities for our current employees.
But here's the biggest reason we're doing this: Our senior leaders know first-hand how incredibly valuable the experience of living and working abroad is, both in terms of personal and professional development, and they're passionate about sharing those experiences with everyone at RV.
Story time!
It's 1989. A twenty-three year old future Red Ventures CEO, Ric Elias, is fresh out of college (and still fairly new to the English language). He quickly lands a job at GE and is selected to transfer to Japan, where he's tasked with establishing new global business relationships and partnerships. According to Mark Brodsky (his boss at the time, and current Red Ventures CFO):
"Living and working abroad is a huge part of what made him into the leader he is now. He was forced to work independently and to make decisions on his own without being able to fall back on me or anyone else for direction. He had to make his own mistakes, fail fast and learn faster.
He signed on to work 6 months in Japan, but he ended up staying more than a year. He understood exactly what he was doing and how significant the experience was in terms of his personal growth and professional development. The knowledge and that mindset of independence and adventure (and survival) that you develop when you go through an experience like this is something that just can't be taught. You've got to live it."
NEXT WEEK: Ricky and Christina explore the city and update us on the launch of our first international partner.

This "game" has been simplified so much that all the players left. Incidentally, with no paddles left on the screen, it makes it even more simple, as there is nothing to bounce off. The only objective left now is to figure out where the ball will hit the edge of the playfield.
The playfield is a rectangle of the size 100 wide by 50 high. Lower left corner is at (0,0); upper right is at (100,50). The ball is the size of a single pixel, and the score counts as that pixel lands on the edge. The ball starts out at the center, at (50,25), and it's velocity will be provided in the input file.
The input file DATA1.txt will contain 5 sets of input, 2 lines each. The first line will be an integer value -10 <= H <= 10, the horizontal component of the velocity. The second line will be an integer value -10 <= V <= 10, the vertical component of the velocity. There will be no 0,0 input, and thus there will always be a solution.
The output file OUT1.txt will contain 5 lines, the location where the ball hits the edge, in the x,y format.
Note: if one was to simulate the game using a loop, the integer values in all of the cases will land exactly on an edge during one of the steps.
Another note: Some might want to draw to screen while developing or debugging their code -- this could be helpful to get a better idea of what's going on, but please remember to comment out any graphical code before submitting a solution.

The making of the biggest Skyrim mod ever
By PCGamer 31 March 2015
This article was originally published in PC Gamer issue 276. For more quality articles about all things PC gaming, you can subscribe now in the UK and the US.
"It's a total conversion for a four-year-old game," read PC Gamer US's rundown of Nehrim: At Fate's Edge, when the Oblivion mod clinched the coveted Mod of the Year award in 2010. "But Nehrim is so impressive that it was a contender not just for best mod, but for best RPG." Such are the lofty standards that German hobbyist group SureAI works to, its total conversion mods feel less like add-ons or additional content indolently tacked onto games post-release, and more like entirely new releases.
Nehrim received plaudits across the board, including four separate Mod of the Year accolades from ModDB. It was praised for its detailed plot, its mature political and sociopolitical themes, and its extensive landscapes.
Enderal: The Shards of Order, SureAI's upcoming Skyrim total conversion, aims to be bigger still. "Enderal is almost as big as Skyrim," Nico Lietzau, one of SureAI's team leaders, tells me. "There are a lot of areas to explore. In terms of exteriors, there are different climate zones: a desert, a forest, heathlands, mountains, all with different vegetation and climates, there's a lot going on. And of course there are many, many dungeons." A mod of Skyrim quality that is almost as big as Skyrim itself. And it's out this year.
We're in good hands. SureAI has been casting its modding magic since the team's inception in 2003, when a small group of Bethesda enthusiasts came together out of a common love for the freedom and atmosphere conveyed by that publisher's sprawling sandbox worlds. Having met through the German modding community amid the fanfare surrounding Morrowind, SureAI originally consisted of two teams: one working on its debut project Myar Aranath; another on a second Arktwend. Upon completion of the first mod, the Aranath team dissolved, its members fusing with their Arktwend counterparts to move forward as a united front.
SureAI may be a hobbyist group working for free, but regimental organisation and rigorous professionalism rank just as highly with the team as the standard of the games they produce. Although inspired by and running on the engines of previous Elder Scrolls games, Myar Aranath, Arktwend, Nehrim and Enderal exist in their own extensive universe, separate from those dreamt up by Bethesda. They have their own lore, their own characters, their own political and economic infrastructures, their own intricate game systems.
The group operates along similar lines to a professional development studio. Although many of the peripheral personnel work remotely around the world, SureAI is now based in an office in Munich, which houses the ten-strong core team. Lietzau notes that in conjunction with studying game design at university, he sometimes finds himself sinking 40-60 hours of work per week into Enderal's development. And most of the team treat SureAI as their main job, even though the majority of them hold down 'real' jobs elsewhere—most of which are in and around the games industry, but some as far afield as architecture and full-time parenting.
Myar Aranath, Arktwend, Nehrim and Enderal exist in their own extensive universe
"With Enderal we started planning before 2011, before the [Skyrim] creation kit was released," explains Johannes Scheer, another of SureAI's leads, and one of its founding fathers. "After Skyrim we did some pre-production, where we set the scope of the project, first drafts of the story, and features we wanted to change. We do change a lot of the gameplay, as a matter of fact, and then we just work to a rough production plan."
Features are realised one by one, to see if they're still fun to play once implemented. "If they aren't, we discuss and see what we can do to make it more fun. As opposed to a normal game production, we already have assets to start building levels right away, so we can start all the departments at once. We start building the world, the quest designers start working away, and once the quest script is written they start implementing it. That goes on for a long time and we try to play it as much as we can along the way."

GLOUSTER, Ohio — The winless Lady Tomcats certainly put a scare into league leaders, but the Lady Eagles survived the fright.
The Trimble softball team cut Eastern's lead from seven runs down to just one, in Thursday night's Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in Athens County, but the Lady Eagles didn't relinquish their lead and won by a 12-8 count.
Eastern (11-2, 10-1 TVC Hocking) scored the game's opening run in the top of the first, when Sidney Cook singled home Ally Barber, who doubled to start the frame.
Trimble (0-11, 0-9) tied the game in the bottom of the first, as Spears scored on a two-out single by Turley.
The Lady Eagles reestablished their lead in the top of the second, when Abbie Hawley doubled and then scored on an Ally Barber two-out single.
Eastern began adding on to its lead in the top of the third inning, when Katlyn Barber tripled home Cook and then scored on a Cera Grueser groundout. With two outs in the third, Taylynn Rockhold was driven in by Hannah Bailey, increasing the EHS lead to 5-1.
THS got one run back in the bottom of the third inning, but went scoreless for the next two frames.
Eastern manufactured two runs without the benefit of a hit in the fourth inning, pushing the lead to 7-2.
In the top of the fifth frame, the Lady Eagles added two runs to their lead, as Cook singled home Bailey, and Ally Barber scored on a Katlyn Barber sac-bunt.
Trimble fought back to within one run, at 9-8, in the bottom of the sixth inning, scoring six runs on the strength of four straight hits, after a two-out error.
Two THS errors in the top of the seventh helped Eastern add three insurance runs and cap off the 12-8 win.
Elaina Hensley was the winning pitcher of record, striking out six batters in a complete game in the circle for EHS. Hensley allowed eight runs, just one earned, on six hits and two walks. Lunsford suffered the loss for the Lady Tomcats.
The Lady Eagle offense was led by Hawley, who was 4-for-5 with two doubles and a run scored. Cook was 3-for-5 with one run scored and two runs batted in, Ally Barber was 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored, while Katlyn Barber was 2-for-3 with a triple, three runs scored and three RBIs.
Bailey singled once, scored once and drove in one run in the win, while Durst singled once and scored twice. Rockhold finished with one run scored and one RBI for the victors, while Grueser contributed two RBIs.
Turley led the hosts at the plate, going 2-for-4 with one double, one run scored and one RBI.
Eastern left eight runners on base, twice as many as Trimble. The Lady Tomcats committed four errors, while EHS had two defensive miscues.
The Lady Eagles also defeated Trimble on Monday, by a 28-2 count in Meigs County.
After a trip to Miller on Friday, the Lady Eagles will be back in action on Monday, when they try to avenge their lone league loss, at Wahama.

Everest 2009: 24 Hours on the Summit
For most people who climb Everest, the summit is a fleeting experience. You spend weeks acclimatizing and preparing to go up, then several days on the summit bid itself, with the last day stretching for hours, only to spend a few minutes on top of the world, and then heading back down.
That scenario will not be the case for Pemba Dorje Sherpa, Nima Gyalzen Sherpa and Phurba Tenzing Sherpa, three brothers from Nepal, who intend to summit the mountain this spring, then spend 24 hours on top in prayer. They intend to carry a statue of Buddha with them and promise to remain at the summit regardless of the weather conditions.
Between the three of them they have 16 successful Everest summits, and when the reach the top this time, they'll set up a small tent, straddling the border between Nepal and Tibet, and go inside to conduct their prayers. The don't intend to sleep at all, and will instead be concentrating on praying for peace in not only their home country, but the World as a whole.
The current record for staying on the summit is currently at 20 hours, set by Babu Shiri Sherpa. Out of respect, the brothers did not want to go after the record while he was alive, but he passed died on the mountain in 2001, so they felt the time was right now.
Obviously they'll be facing a number of issues with being at the summit for so long, but the Sherpas are notoriously strong at altitude, which leaves the raw elements for them to deal with. High winds and very cold temperatures will most likely be their most pressing concerns. Hopefully they'll choose their summit date wisely come spring.
Read more about the attempt in this article from the BBC, and thanks to the Outside Blog for the heads up on this story.

This sounds incredibly dangerous. It's very difficult to stay alive above 26k. Surviving at 28k for 24hrs sounds impossible. But if anyone can do it, it's a Sherpha.
Yeah, it will be dangerous, but like I said in my post, I'm more concerned with a storm brewing up or something. That would be incredibly dangerous. But, these three have a lot of experience, and I'm sure they'll be cautious. *fingers crossed*
Babu died in 2001 after he fell into a crevasse on Everest.
Thanks for the clarification. I'll make an adjustment to the story.

Issue Generation Case:
I am not facing this issue every times when I call service. But in some cases like I have restarted glassfish server 10 times then it's working well for 9 times out of 10 but it will fail in once and gives above error at server and client side.
The issue is related to jar loading by glassfish 3.1 but I haven't got right solution.
Glassfish using **/glassfish/modules/*-osgi.jar
Any Suggestion regarding this is great help for me.

A: The Jar of Jaxb-impl-2.0.1.jar is conflicting with glassfish *-osgi.jar api.
I have removed the Jaxb-impl-2.0.1.jar and is working well for all times.
Instead of jaxb-osgi.jar , my application is loading the Jaxb-impl-2.0.1.jar.


Saw one of my favourite artists, David Gray headline. Some idiot threw a plastic bottle on stage at him. It hit his hand while playing the guitar. He stopped but instead of coming over all Axl Rose he laughed and said something like "Bastards, I can't say anything though as I used to do that!" Class.
White Stripes were supposed to be playing but Jack White had injured his hand. Flaming Lips played Seven Nation Army as a tribute. Class.
Saw The Cardigans, fancied Nina Persson. Class.
Saw some band called The Kings of Leon in one of the smaller marquees. Pretty empty. Myself and Matt loved them. Not sure what became of them. Class.

Q: Polynomial without roots in a ring Let $A$ be a commutative ring which is not an integral domain. I try to find a polynomial $P$ of $A[X]$ such that $d°P = 1$ and $P$ admits no root in any ring $B$ such that $A$ is a subring of $B$.

A: Take a ring $A$ that is not an integral domain, and let $d\in A$ be a zero-divisor. Consider the polynomial $dx-1$. Since $d$ is a zero-divisor in $A$, it is a zero-divisor in every ring $B$ containing $A$ as a subring. In particular, $d$ is not a unit in any such $B$. Therefore, the polynomial $dx-1$ cannot have a root in any $B$.

We're always searching for unconventional ideas for our annual hand-letterpressed Christmas cards in my world. Always plenty of bad unconventional ideas come up (I actually think the Angel Grinder was pretty good!), but this year's was a doozy: eggnog.
I've been spending Christmas outside of the UK for so long now I'm not sure if eggnog has finally been imported to these shores, but even in its cultural home of America, it still baffles me. It's kind of like the milkshake you never wanted.
It doesn't really taste eggy. It sits in the same American Holiday category as pumpkin pie in my mind – a kind of not-entirely-sweet thing that is equally misunderstood outside of the US. I've acquired a taste for pumpkin pie now, but every year I'm on that side of the Atlantic ocean at Christmastime, I drink eggnog and wonder why I'm doing it.
I even went to the effort this year of making my own eggnog from fresh ingredients – the real stuff is basically the same ingredient set as a good gelato, so nothing to be afraid of (though your pipes might feel differently). The homemade stuff was definitely better, but still utterly perplexing.
Perplexing – perfect for our Christmas cards! To print we went, with a nice little halftone pattern giving the illustration that extra bit of depth. Super satisfying!
Lilly and I were busy travelling a bit this autumn, so Christmas cards became a bit more of a clandestine operation than in past years. As usual, we struggled to come up with a design. When I sent Lilly a sketch of this it made her laugh, so in absence of a better idea I took a punt on it.
When the plates arrived, Lilly was worried that it wouldn't be understood by most of our recipients, but sometimes you've just gotta be weird. Our rotund Santa has stolen the stollen (which wasn't the only thing we believe to have been stolen in 2016… Ahem).
I went for slightly smaller cards this year thinking I would do a design that didn't max out our tiny press so much, but I still ended up pushing the tiny Adana's limits. We got surprisingly good results out of it though, and the silver ink highlighted the reasonable impression it made too!
I'm selling christmas cards again this year. Click here to buy some!
Last year was my first year selling my letterpressed christmas cards, and in hindsight, it was a bit ambitious to try and sell every single design I've done all at once when I was printing them on demand. To keep things simpler, particularly under the time constraints, I'm just going to be printing and selling the one design this year, which you should be seeing a mockup of above.
This year was the year of the bicycle for me – Lilly and I got bicycles for the first time since we were teenagers, and spent the summer cycling around Hertfordshire, so we decided to reflect that in this year's design. In developing the illustration, I tried to put Santa on a variety of bicycles (he looked particularly ridiculous on a racer bike!) and found he fit best on a slightly beach-ish cruiser.
As ever, these cards are being hand-letterpressed onto high-quality 300gsm Somerset card stock, and they will come with appropriately-sized envelopes. This year the envelopes are made of recycled paper, which is a big look!
Cards will be pressed and sent out to you during the first week of December, so they arrive with you in good time to send out to your people. It's a small selling window, so get yours now!
Would you like some to send to your nearest and dearest? Go and get some here!
Ah, November. It's that time of year when the days get so short you'll miss the sunlight if you blink, and time to get the old Adana back in motion – it's Christmas card time!
Lilly and I have been making hand-letterpressed Christmas cards for a while now. We come up with a new design each year, so now we have a little range of designs and feel a bit more organised than past years, I think it's about damn time I put some up for sale!
…or if you can't decide which ones you like the best, you can also buy a multipack of all four designs here!
The cards are all printed on a very nice 300gsm Somerset paper stock, so they're nice and heavy and when combined with the letterpressed artwork, there's a wonderful tactility to them – something you could never dream of getting from an e-card! All cards will also come with an appropriately sized and coloured envelope – either red or silver.
I'm calling this a speed sale because by the nature of Christmas coming on a fixed date, they're only going to be up for sale for a couple of weeks. All orders will be printed up and posted out to you by 1st December, which should give you plenty of time to fill out the cards and get them into the mail to your friends and enemies before Royal Mail's own deadline.
Head over to my tiny webshop now to get your orders in, and send your friends some hand-printed and totally unique christmas cards – receiving mail is awesome!
He was cute, but Lilly was struggling with his sack and we realised a three-colour job (one of the colours white) would've been a bit ambitious for our tiny press. We sat there trying to think up some other ideas, and because our flat is littered with my washing-machine-based artwork, Lilly suggested we did some kind of festive washing machine.
It might be me with the washer obsession, but this card was Lilly's idea. I've taught her well!
…Then with a bit of reworking (Lilly said he should be smiling proudly at his washer, not frowning at its extravagant spin as I had imagined the scene), we had our design finished. We thought it looked like it should be a New Yorker cartoon.
We sat on the design for a couple of days to make sure we were happy with it, then as soon as I sent the artwork off to the plate manufacturers to print, Lilly had an attack of second thoughts, worrying it was too weird. It was too late though, and after a couple of days' wait, the plates arrived and we were in print.
Once they were all made, Lilly became a believer again, so into the postbox they went!
Merry Christmas to everyone, whatever your faith or washing machine brand!
White: The colour of the arctic, and of the polar bear. It's the perfect camouflage! Perfection aside, it could be a little more festive.
Like all of my best ideas, this one started out life as a post-it sketch.
Surprisingly, Lilly liked him, so in an unusual strike of decisiveness, I traced him up and off he went to Centurion for another nice plate.
We dusted off the Adana, and got printing.
We figured it wasn't really efficient to print each colour on the letterpress, so to make things even more unique, Lilly and I painted 2,700 tiny fairy lights in watercolour.
Because we hand-painted them, every single card we produced this year is unique. Cool as a polar bear!
A nice girl who bought a set of the letterpressing inks I was selling earlier this year tipped me off about Centurion Graphics as a good place to get printing plates made, so for this year's Christmas card designs, we did exactly that!
We got some nice heavy-guage magnesium plates made up of a robin design I came up with under Lilly's direction. They plates are really good – so much easier than my previous linocut efforts, and capable of a really nice deep impression in the card too.
Unfortunately I was a bit hasty when I started to print up these cards and by rushing I messed up the text on the front a little bit, ending up with a bit of ghosting from improper inking. Oh well.
I have opened a tiny webshop! As well as selling some old large-format prints, the main reason I set up this shop is to sell some letterpressed greeting cards I have been working on for the past few months.

Sretsis skirt, Jeremy Scott care label tee, American Apparel socks, Demonia white creepers.
I have an obsession with the "Up in the Clouds" AW11 collection, it's possibly my most favourite collection of theirs yet. Can I just say… the prints. THE PRINTS. Unicorns, rainbows, lambs, clouds, doves, deer *:・゚✧ Absolutely gorgeous. The only downside is that I'm slightly broke?? (But it is completely and entirely worth it). Not to mention everything about the make is beautiful, and it has a dainty pink spotted lining I was showing off above. Even the label and the tags are beautiful!
I'm ~officially~ on holidays now as I am 100% free. My holiday to-do list includes drawing, christmas shopping, getting a haircut, seeing friends, catching up on movies and TV, lots of DIY projects, and of course SLEEP!
oh my, that skirt is amazing!
wow! the skirt is aammazing and I love what you've worn with it.
omg babe the skirt looks FABULOUS on you!! so jealous!!!!!! the print is to die for!
I love that collection too! So jealous you got the skirt. I've been obsessing about this T too, since you've post it (yeah, I ALWAYS read your posts). Can you tell me where to get it?
The skirt is so beautiful. The print is quite impressive. Damn Stretsis, that brand has released quite a few amazing pieces I wish I could afford. I just couldn't justify spending that much money on one piece now 🙁 which is a shame because some of their dresses are SO spectacular. Maybe if the job I just got wasn't such horrible pay. Oh, welcome to the Uni holidays club btw haha.
Oh My GOD, why didn't I discovered you before?! It's totally perfect. I love it so much~ oh my lord.
Omg I love this entire look so much! The skirt is so dreamy and beautiful!

Marguerite Blake Wilbur Professor in Natural Science and Professor, by courtesy, of Physics
Current Research and Scholarly Interests My research group is exploring a variety of topics that range from the basic understanding of chemical reaction dynamics to the nature of the chemical contents of single cells.
Under thermal conditions nature seems to hide the details of how elementary reactions occur through a series of averages over reagent velocity, internal energy, impact parameter, and orientation. To discover the effects of these variables on reactivity, it is necessary to carry out studies of chemical reactions far from equilibrium in which the states of the reactants are more sharply restricted and can be varied in a controlled manner. My research group is attempting to meet this tough experimental challenge through a number of laser techniques that prepare reactants in specific quantum states and probe the quantum state distributions of the resulting products. It is our belief that such state-to-state information gives the deepest insight into the forces that operate in the breaking of old bonds and the making of new ones.
Space does not permit a full description of these projects, and I earnestly invite correspondence. The following examples are representative:
The simplest of all neutral bimolecular reactions is the exchange reaction H H2 -> H2 H. We are studying this system and various isotopic cousins using a tunable UV laser pulse to photodissociate HBr (DBr) and hence create fast H (D) atoms of known translational energy in the presence of H2 and/or D2 and using a laser multiphoton ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer to detect the nascent molecular products in a quantum-state-specific manner by means of an imaging technique. It is expected that these product state distributions will provide a key test of the adequacy of various advanced theoretical schemes for modeling this reaction.
Analytical efforts involve the use of capillary zone electrophoresis, two-step laser desorption laser multiphoton ionization mass spectrometry, cavity ring-down spectroscopy, and Hadamard transform time-of-flight mass spectrometry. We believe these methods can revolutionize trace analysis, particularly of biomolecules in cells.

Tina Fey on how 'The Muppet Show' was her first exposure to sketch comedy
Tina Fey (b. 1970) is an American writer, comedian, and actor. Fey served as cast member, head writer, and Weekend Update anchor on Saturday Night Live between 1997 and 2006, and co-created, wrote, and appeared in 30 Rock and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
Fey guest starred on Sesame Street Episode 4135 as the captain of the Bookaneers, and appeared in a 2015 episode as Mother Goose.
In Muppets Most Wanted, Fey plays Nadya, a Russian prison guard.
Her 30 Rock character, Liz Lemon, was parodied on Sesame Street as an actual lemon in a Season 39 parody entitled 30 Rocks. Additionally, an Anything Muppet caricature of Fey appeared in the 30 Rock episode "Apollo, Apollo."
During the April 11, 2007 episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Fey revealed that she had filmed a segment for the upcoming 38th season of Sesame Street. Fey talked with host Conan O'Brien about her (and her daughter Alice Zenobia's) love for Sesame Street. Fey also shared with O'Brien her rediscovery of classic Sesame Street episodes through the Old School: Volume 1 DVD box set; she expressed similar thoughts in a Summer 2007 interview with TV Guide:
"I've become obsessed with the DVD set Sesame Street: Old School. It's fantastic because it makes you [remember] all these things implanted in your brain... like "The Ladybug's Picnic" and "The Alligator King"."
Fey also referenced Sesame Street in her 2011 book Bossypants when giving advice for overcoming obstacles of discrimination in the workplace stating:
"I suggest you model your strategy after the old Sesame Street film piece "Over! Under! Through!" (If you're under forty you might not remember this film. It taught the concepts of "over," "under," and "through" by filming toddlers crawling around an abandoned construction site. They don't show it anymore because someone has since realized that's nuts.)[1]"
Tina Fey and the Bookaneers.

Tweeting about the red carpet arrivals at the Academy Awards, Uncle Deadly said of Fey, "Funny AND fabulous? Tina Fey truly does it all. She looks great even though she decided against one of my Uncle By Deadly ensembles."[2]

I thought I would do an update as to how I am faring with my cataract free eyesight. I now have my new glasses as I mentioned several posts ago. Still are fine with them.
Have I noticed any problems since the surgery? Not really. My eyes still get tired, but in some ways that may not be a bad thing. I tend to be a tunnel vision sort, and won't stop something till I am forced to. So my eyes getting tired is actually a way to save them.
Photos tend to really have dark shadows, and blown out lights. Now I am seeing light better, I can paint the proper values for these areas much more easily.
So, am I still glad I had the surgery? You bet I am!

Locals to benefit from funding
February 23, 2016 tcwadmin 2016, Local News
Local children, young people and families in Cobar will benefit from a recent State Government funding announcement by Member for Barwon, Kevin Humphries.
Mr Humphries said his electorate would receive an extension of $5.8 million in funding for targeted early intervention and intensive programs until mid-2017.
Of the $5.8 million allocated, Cobar Shire Council will receive $17,381 to subsidise the salary of a HomeStart Cobar Community Worker while Cobar families will also indirectly benefit from funding granted to other services across the electorate including Barnados ($898,240) and Home-Start Western Area ($115,279).
Mr Humphries said the funding is part of the NSW Government's $233 million commitment to intervening early-to-address issues in families which put children at risk of harm and increase the likelihood of entering the child protection system.
"These services work with their clients to help them before they reach crisis points in their lives and to avoid the need for involvement by the statutory child protection system," Mr Humphries said.
"Extending funding to mid-2017 will provide certainty for our community partners that provide important services like case management, parenting programs and domestic violence support."
Mr Humphries said between now and 2017 the NSW Government through the Department of Family and Community Services (FACS) will work closely with these service providers to co-design an improved targeted earlier intervention service system in NSW.
"It is important that the reach and impact of earlier intervention programs is maximised so families and communities have better outcomes," Mr Humphries said.

A new design for late Winter 2018, the Athlone sweater is Olann's first fairisle design. Using a variegated yarn for the sweet little dots, every sweater is a little different. The charcoal background perfectly highlights the dots and is sure to look lovely on everyone!
Designed and made in-house by Olann, the Athlone Sweater is made from a soft, non-itchy, chunky acrylic and lambswool blended yarn, to keep you warm (and stylish) all Winter long! This sweater is designed to be oversized and generous, so it will fit a variety of sizes and shapes.
For the moment the Athlone Sweater is only available in Charcoal, with Fossil coloured dots.


An interesting poem given a suitably hymnal setting by Bellamy, although despite addressing The Lord it adopts a Humanist, if not somewhat agnostic tone. I suppose there's a touch of the carpe diem about it too, altbeit tempered by a humility that verges on the self deprecating. It certainly takes an optimistic line on mankind's mores, which could be debateable. I think what I like about this and some of the other Kipling poems is the way that humanity rises to the top above any sense of orthodoxy. Kipling is clearly a complex and controversial subject and perhaps another project for later. Mainly Norfolk is a good source of all things Bellamy so the best place to check out the poem, including the missing bit.

Excellent………….what a philosophy…..what a pleasant fellow….how am I going to learn all those words!
So good, I appear to have said it thrice!
Muzza I've deleted one of them and I hope that I hope doesn't affect any future comments, but I'll keep an eye on things.
A wonderful song and beautifully sung. What lovely diction – a real treat to listen to this!
Pete and Mick played the Finest Kind version as a request from me on their lamentably gone Folkwaves program including their last show. Though Canadian (sort off) they really caught the spirit of Kipling and Bellamy with their version.
Show nothing irredeemable on either side the grave.
But I can see why Jon ditched the last verse.
I like the humorous touches — he rejoices in the devilkins as well as in the saints; and he has "sometimes pulled it off".
That bars me from a brother's side, whatever pride he show.
That can stand by itself as a moral aphorism.
Ref the Mainly Norfolk Youtube link….how on earth does the young lady remember all those words………..I can barely remember my name!
I was expecting to know this one but it is not the one on Jon's CD just a similiar title. Nicely done as to be expected and of course with Kipling's words – now that is poetry.
Just been on Mainly Norfolk and all ok so back to printing lyrics for my collection.
She probably has a good memory Muzza rather like me fortunately. It's the short term memory that is usually the trouble- one cannot remember where one was yesterday but can dredge up recollections from years ago. Strange isn't it?
By the way, there is a very nice video of Pilgrims' Way's way to the Folk Awards. Tom and Edwin are piloting their canal boat while Lucy is probably sitting in the boat's cabin memorising the words for "A Pilgrims' Way".
That was a lovely trip up the Bridgewater Canal but so much ice. As for the Lowry hoping to get tickets to see Bellowhead there. Tickets go on sale on the 24th of this month but they do not appear until 18th Novemebr. Crumbs that a long time to wait.
@Reinhard………thanks for the canal boat link…..looks like the ideal training for would be Goalkeepers and pole vaulters!
Another Kipling/Bellamy , Jon always seem to get these spot on.
@Diana……..aha-there you are…..CAPITAL to see you back.
Muzza I have finally caught up and what a welcome – CAPITAL don't tell me I mispelt the other day. You cannot be serious!


KERRY'S representative organisations have united to ask the Director of the Southern Regional Assembly for an extension to the March 8 deadline for receiving submissions to the Draft Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy (RSES) Plan.
The plan, which is a new framework for economic development and planning for the Southern Region, will set out how Government policies and objectives are delivered for the region until 2031.
It will set the parameters for the County Kerry Development Plan during that time which will have implications on the future development and growth of Kerry.
The Chambers collectively welcome this document and recognise the significant responsibility of the Southern Assembly to create a regional level strategy (RSES) as detailed in the NPF, in order to provide the framework for how 'Government policies and objectives will be delivered for the region'.
The Chambers of Commerce in Tralee, Killarney, Listowel, Castleisland, Dingle, Killorglin and Kenmare support the collective approach to promoting greater investment in infrastructure, job creation, increased connectivity and community services in the Kingdom.
The RSES Plan effectively dictates where Government investment will go over the next twelve years and if someone asks in future years why our County has not be given its fair share of investment to grow and develop, the RSES Plan will be the reason.
Businesses and the community representatives in Kerry are being encouraged to review the RSES Plan and submit their views to rses@southernassembly.ie or send them to ken@tralee.ie to support the Kerry Chambers' submission ahead of the Friday 8th March closing date.
Full details of the RSES Plan can be found at https://www.southernassembly.ie/regional-planning/regional-spatial-and-economic-strategy.


Freddie & Nick discuss the departure of Ralph Krueger from St Mary's and what it could mean.
He was nothing more than Kat then Gao's bagman and was paid handsomely for that part time role.
However one thing I will agree on the most talented Chairman or Ceo in the world will not make a scrap of difference if the owner has no ambition.
Krueger V Levy is really Goa v Lewis...Cortese proved in a unique case of CEO having absolute power and funds what we could have been instead Kat dropped her bottle and the club we could have grown into will now not happen.
Krueger was so good he was sacked.
A really great piece Nick.
I haven't read so much sense for donkeys years.
Anyway just thought I would mention the link below which may have passed most people by and perhaps had something to do with the timing of RK's exit.

The evidence is beginning to point toward a fact about Christine Ford: She's a liar who perjured herself. If there is any justice in the world, she'll be locked up for her perjury—especially when an innocent man's reputation was dragged through the muck.
One of Ford's many former boyfriends came forward with sworn testimony that she did indeed instruct an FBI candidate in deep detail about how to take a polygraph test—contrary to what she told the Senate Judiciary Committee. Forget that it's unethical to instruct candidates in ways to beat the polygraph. The real bombshell is she insisted to Congress that she 'never' instructed anyone.
The boyfriend also contradicted her claim of 'fear of flying' when in fact, he once flew with her in Hawaii in a single-engine plane. During their time together Ford never mentioned Kavanaugh.
Even her 'problem' glasses seem fake. I think they're a prop. She was always looking over them and seemed uncomfortable wearing the smudgy things. She's a psychologist and probably thought wearing them would garner her more sympathy and perhaps make her look more intellectual and credible.
She's not credible. All signs point to the reason for her lies: She's far left, pro-abortion, she donated to Hillary Clinton, and she happened to go to high school at the same time of Brett Kavanaugh and saw an opportunity. To her, the end justified her lying means.
Time to vote Kavanaugh in as a Supreme Court Justice and park Ford in prison.
