We move to the kitchen. The appliances have already been taken out, so we turn to the cupboards. . . . The box of matches may stay, a small bag of flour, some sugar and salt. A few moldy potatoes, already in the garbage can, must be rescued, for they will provide much of tonight's meal. We will leave a handful of onions and a dish of dried beans. All the rest we take away: the meat, the fresh vegetables, the canned goods, the crackers, the candy.
Now we have stripped the house: the bathroom has been dismantled, the running water shut off, the electric wires taken out. Next we take away the house. The family can move to the tool shed. . . . Communications must go next. No more newspapers, magazines, books—not that they are missed, since we must take away our family's literacy as well. Instead, in our shantytown we will allow one radio. . . .
Now government services must go next. No more postmen, no more firemen. There is a school, but it is three miles away and consists of two classrooms. . . . There are, of course, no hospitals or doctors nearby. The nearest clinic is ten miles away and is tended by a midwife. It can be reached by bicycle, provided the family has a bicycle, which is unlikely. . . .
Finally, money. We will allow our family a cash hoard of five dollars. This will prevent our breadwinner from experiencing the tragedy of an Iranian peasant who went blind because he could not raise the $3.94 which he mistakenly thought he needed to receive admission to a hospital where he could have been cured.
This is an accurate description of the lifestyle and world from which I came. From the moment I touched foot on American soil, I walked in an unbelieving daze. How can two so different economies coexist simultaneously on the earth? Everything was so overpowering and confusing to me at first. Not only did I have to learn the simplest procedures—like using the pay telephones and making change—but as a sensitive Christian, I found myself constantly making spiritual evaluations of everything I saw.
If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket—safe, dark, motionless, airless—it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. . . . The only place outside Heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers of love . . . is Hell.
So we prayed. Some weeks went by, and suddenly we got a letter from the government, saying, "Seven of us are coming. We'll be there in five days. We are coming to study and investigate your organization." At the bottom of the letter was a man's signature. When we read the name, we were all scared. This man was a very well-known, righteous Brahmin and a high government official. We knew they had the ability to hinder us in the ministry. But because of the word from the Lord and the prayer that came from that, we were prepared.
Americans are more than just unaware of their affluence—they almost seem to despise it at times. Finding a lounge chair, I stared in amazement at how they treated their beautiful clothes and shoes. The richness of the fabrics and colors was beyond anything I had ever seen. As I would discover again and again, this nation routinely takes its astonishing wealth for granted.
As I would do many times—almost daily—in the weeks ahead, I compared their clothing to that of the national missionary evangelists whom I had left only a few weeks before. Many of them walk barefoot between villages or work in flimsy sandals. Their threadbare cotton garments would not be acceptable as cleaning rags in the United States. Then I discovered most Americans have closets full of clothing they wear only occasionally—and I remembered the years I traveled and worked with only the clothes on my back. And I had lived the normal lifestyle of most village evangelists.
As I remembered the things he wrote, I began to get very upset over the whole situation. I couldn't believe he was invited to the conference to speak on missions. As I started to speak before the assembly full of people, I made an unkind, unloving comment about him. I considered myself justified in what I said because I thought the damage he did to the kingdom's work was great.
Do you think this was easy for me to do? Not at all! Each one of us has our pride, our knowledge and our own way we think is right. But what we know will never justify us saying anything rude or unkind.
An angel with a flaming sword was posted at the entrance to the Garden of Eden so they would never be able to return (see Genesis 3:24). What was God going to do now after the whole purpose of man's creation—fellowship with Him—was lost? Well, He immediately gave them a most wonderful prophecy, the promise of the seed of the woman, who is the Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior (see Genesis 3:15).
God's gift, "the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world" (Revelation 13:8, NKJV), was God's greatest revelation of His love toward mankind, greater than what Adam ever experienced before his fall. And think about this: The original plan only made man in the image of God, whereas the second one made him a child of God (John 1:12). No, the cross is not second best—it is the very best!


Charlene Barshefsky, senior international partner at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP, speaks during the U.S.-China Investment Cooperation Forum on July 17, 2012.
Asked if she could give a timeline to a formal trade agreement between Chinese President Xi Jinping and U.S. President Donald Trump — even if it remains a stop-gap, band-aid temporary deal — she was optimistic that it could be within weeks, not months.
"But how does is feel? It feels by the end of April," she said referring to when she expects a deal.
At the heart of the trade conflict is the widening trade gap between the U.S. and China. America's trade deficit with China in December last year was $38.7 billion, by far the most of any nation. Talks have also run into difficulties over topics such as China forcing American companies to hand over technology in exchange for market access.

Virginia Hires Clemson OC Tony Elliott As Next Head Coach
by Alejandro Avila December 10, 2021, 5:24 pm updated December 10, 2021, 5:40 pm 1 Comment
The Virginia Cavaliers have found their newest head coach in Clemson offensive coordinator Tony Elliott.
Elliott, 42, was also rumored as a strong candidate to succeed David Cutcliffe for the Duke head coaching vacancy after reports emerged that former Dallas Cowboys coach Jason Garrett was in the running.
Elliott's candidacy for several coaching roles, ranging from the Vols' head coaching job to rumors of becoming the Seattle Seahawks' OC, has been built on a strong tenure at Clemson since 2011. Since his inclusion in the coaching staff, Clemson has gone 121-18. He earned the 2017 Broyles Award for top coaching assistant in the nation.
The coordinator has been a staple of the Clemson offense and led several of Dabo Swinney's signature Death Valley offenses. Elliott's talks with the UVA brass first began on Wednesday and the coach contemplated on his ultimate decision until Friday morning when the news was first announced by Yahoo Sports' Pete Thamel.
With the hire, the Cavs are expected to start filling in the coaching staff, beginning with senior defensive assistant Wes Goodwin's rumored promotion to defensive coordinator.
After a day of deep thought, Tony Elliott has agreed to become @UVAFootball's next head football coach, sources tell ESPN. Elliott visited the UVa campus with his family earlier this week. He takes the Cavs' job after spending the last 11 seasons on @ClemsonFB's staff.
— Chris Low (@ClowESPN) December 10, 2021
As relayed by OutKick's Nick Geddes, Bronco Mendenhall stepped down as the Cavalier's head coaching gig on Dec. 2 after six seasons of ACC football.
"It has been a privilege to have Bronco Mendenhall direct the Virginia football team over the past six seasons," said Virginia AD Carla Williams. "He has done an exceptional job of not just transforming the program, but elevating the expectations for the program. He has established the necessary foundation to propel our football team upward.
"He is more than a football coach and the impact he has had on these young men will be a positive influence for the rest of their lives."
Clemson now finds itself developing a new regime from the ground up with the departure of Elliott as offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator Brent Venables, who was hired for the Oklahoma Sooners' head coaching vacancy last Sunday.

Workshop presented by Grow Native Mass and taught by Kathy Connolly on April 13 from 10:00am to 4:00pm at 321 Arsenal St in Watertown.
Join Grow Native Massachusetts for this intensive seminar with Kathy Connolly, landscape designer and owner of Speaking of Landscapes!
A native meadow is an ecologically vibrant landscape, providing food and habitat to native pollinators and other wildlife. The deep, undisturbed roots of mature meadow plants capture and store carbon. Meadows rarely need visits from lawnmowers or leaf-blowers, thus reducing air pollution and neighborhood noise. But meadows are not simply lawns or perennial beds gone wild. Understanding why meadows are different is critical to success. Designer Kathy Connolly will lead this intensive seminar, covering everything from the definition of a meadow, to site selection and preparation, the relationship of grasses and flowering species, and useful maintenance protocols. Class enrollment includes Kathy's extensive plant lists and design resources. This is a great course for anyone, from home gardeners to professional landscapers, looking to take a deep dive into the ins and outs of meadow-making.
Kathy Connolly is a landscape designer, writer, and teacher, who brings over 20 years of experience in creating and tending meadows. She works with a range of clients, from homeowners to state parks, to develop meadows and other naturalized plantings, and has taught workshops throughout New England. Kathy has a Master's degree in landscape design from the Conway School.
Continuing education credits will be available. Learn more about all of our workshop programs at https://www.grownativemass.org/programs/workshops.

2) he bases all his criticism of retail trading, on the (false) assumption that retail trading has anything to do with what investment bankers do. Basically you either come from Goldman, JPmorgan, Citibank etc... or you are useless and have no idea of what you are doing. I don't think the timeframe and the risk parameters that big banks use have anything to do with what retail traders do. Look at big funds, that make 10% a year (if they are good), a retail trader with a 30K account can make the same return in one day..... I am not saying one is better that the other, they are completely different games.
3) he has so many absolute truths... he knows "the right way" to trade, "the right way" to manage finance... "the right way" to live.... and he can give you lessons about basically everything, from macro economics of entire countries to human relations. The lack of complexity of his thoughts is in itself a synonymous of a poor intellect. As the German philosopher Hegel would say: true understanding lies in retaining the complexity of a subject.
4) he criticize flashy lifestyle that many youtube traders promote, but then he makes courses in very flashy places.... and takes videos around the beach or in 5 stars hotel. To explain the value of money, he takes out a 20K USD cash.... why does he do that? to show everybody that he has 20K at hand? come on!!
I think he is just somebody that had a great career in the corporate world ....will he teach you how to organically grow a small account of 50K USD?? I don't know.
I think if you go to the jungle you'd rather have as a guide a local than a Harvard phd... same thing, if you want to trade your small account, why do you want to learn from an former Goldman's boy?
1) many pics / videos with cash!!! nowadays cash is useless in many places... you can pay by credit card almost everywhere.
2) champagne!! he loves MOET.... obviously a brand. I don't know you guys, but I prefer good wine. You can buy good red wine for 20 USD.
3) look at the picture with the 4 screens: 2 are hidden behind one, which makes no sense.... the you have two visible screen in a room full of light. The light coming from the windows normally is quite bothering and does not allow you to see the screen clearly.
Everything looks too "fancy" to me.
I love trading an so I like everyone who have the same passion!
However most successful trader with proven record are very shy .
Anton is either a big exception or he is not trading ?
for me the fact that he is bragging about a the potential trade on Turkish Lira is the final proof that he is not reliable.
As a trader the key factor is implementation, I can tell you now that the SP500 is going to fall and then the day it falls, I can show you how smart I was..... but you make money if you time market correctly.
Nothing to do with Anton but I think they are pathetic and illustrate one of the worst aspects of the internet.
at least Anton has an opinion ! Even if the opinion is wrong it is still better than to relay on chart-???.
What is good with Anton that he is for example not recommending Daytrading . Of course some gamblers don't like to hear that and are very frustrated by this kind of training!
I don't agree with what you say, having an opinion is not necessarily a good thing. It makes you enter a trade with biases, which are maybe correct in a completely different time frame.
I think you don't need to have a long term opinion to make money in the market, and that more often than not a long temr opinion might cause a lot of problems.
This is my opinion, of course... but if you are profitable in any other way, good for you!
Also, I don't think it's very respectful to automatically define every day trader as a gambler.
There many day traders in the world (and in this website) that know exactly what they do. They are not gamblers, and they gain substantial amount of money.
Trading based on macro-economics considerations is also viable, and I respect that.... but to me if you don't optimize timing, that willl not allow you to make money.
some is not all .
Gamblers are those who live in this Candlestick-World ( 100 Percent "technical" not 80 to 20 Percent ) If you make a seminar and tell those guys you buy for example Palladium due to a shortage they are very frustrated if Palladium has not 2 green Candlesticks followed by a red one all the time .
I am sometimes using a candlestick Chart and I am sometimes daytrading .
I think Anton is giving us trader a better image than others who sell the trading a game and as a Playstation .
I don't know this guy, just reminds me of 95 year old Poor Charlie's talk a month ago.
Breaks down all trading "education" right here.
I love he can't even contain himself from chuckling.


Opinion|Why Do We Think Suffering Is Good for Us?
Feeling anxious or depressed and want to get better? You have to really work at it and suffer through years of therapy and sometimes try lots of drugs. No pain, no gain, or so we've been told.
That would make a stoic happy, but as a psychiatrist — and an admittedly impatient one — I know that just because something feels bad doesn't necessarily mean that it's good for you. I'm pretty confident that people who are suffering prefer relief sooner rather than later and that if there was any way to make the treatment — be it psychotherapy or medication — more effective, they would gladly try it.
So I am cautiously optimistic that on Tuesday, the Food and Drug Administration approved esketamine, a nasal version of the drug ketamine, which appears to relieve depressive symptoms far faster than other antidepressants. There are risks: The drug is potentially addictive, heavy use can impair cognition, and it could induce a psychotic reaction in some patients. But if prescribed judiciously, esketamine should be a boon to the 25 percent of people with depression who fail to respond to current drugs.
I have been wondering if esketamine could be used for another purpose, too: to strengthen the effects of therapy. This is because it targets the neurotransmitter glutamate, which plays an important role in learning and memory.
There is intriguing neuroscience research that suggests that it may be possible to boost the efficacy of psychotherapy with drugs that share some of ketamine's effects, somewhat the way athletes can enhance their performance with steroids.
A while back, I saw a young woman who had been mugged on her way home from work. She was pushed to the ground by an unseen assailant who stole her wallet and fled, leaving her shaken up but otherwise unharmed.
In the next few weeks, she become increasingly anxious when walking alone at night and had intrusive flashbacks of the assault during the day. Normally, you would lose this fear after being back on the street a few times and seeing that nothing traumatic happens. But she'd developed classic post-traumatic stress disorder, in which a previously safe situation provokes a persistent, and visceral, sense of danger.
She began exposure therapy with one of my colleagues in which she gradually confronted the situation she feared — a dark city street — alongside her therapist, who assured her that nothing terrible would happen. Like many people, she found this treatment upsetting and emotionally draining, but she stuck it out and eventually recovered.
What if we could use a drug to speed up a difficult treatment like that and make it more effective?
The psychologist JoAnn Difede and her colleagues at Weill Cornell Medical College, where I also work, addressed that question with a study in 2013 of 25 patients who developed PTSD after Sept. 11. They randomly assigned the participants to virtual reality exposure (12 weekly sessions of simulated attacks on the World Trade Center combined with patients' recounting their traumatic experience in vivid detail) with either the drug d-cycloserine or a placebo.
Subjects who received exposure along with d-cycloserine showed faster and greater improvement in their PTSD and depressive symptoms, and the benefits persisted after six months of follow-up.
Of course, this was a very small study. A 2017 meta-analysis of 21 studies found that d-cycloserine was superior to a placebo in boosting the short-term effect of exposure-based therapy, though any long-term effects were less consistent. Studies of the drug in rodents have also found that it helps the animals recover from the fear of shocks much faster than a placebo.
How might this work? D-cycloserine is an antibiotic that, like ketamine, increases the activity of glutamate in key brain regions, which promotes connections between neurons. It seems to amp up the molecular machinery of learning. And psychotherapy is all about learning — to overcome fear and to better handle stress, among other lessons.
For decades, psychoanalysts were against medicating anxiety at all, because they believed it would interfere with the therapeutic process. Fortunately, those days are largely over. Many are now comfortable giving patients anti-anxiety benzodiazepines like Klonopin if they are having a hard time grappling with issues that arise in therapy. Treating excessive anxiety can allow patients to better face their pain and fears.
This research suggests we could be doing more to use drugs to turbocharge therapy.
The timing of drug and treatment is probably crucial. In one study, rats were trained to fear a particular context (cage) or a cue (white light) by pairing them with a mild shock. The animals then underwent fear-extinction therapy, either in one long session after receiving a benzodiazepine or in two sessions with the drug given in between. The latter group were more successful at getting over their fear, which suggests that some exposure therapy must precede the medication.
But maybe, with the help of the right drug, just a little therapy could go a long way.
One small study randomized 20 subjects with PTSD to receive just two sessions of therapy in addition to either MDMA (the party drug Ecstasy) or a placebo. Those who got MDMA had fewer PTSD symptoms and were more open and less "neurotic" than those who took a placebo at a two-month follow-up.
It's not that surprising. MDMA is known to promote openness and lack of defensiveness, both of which might be conducive to attaining insights. Could that wisdom be as enduring as the kind acquired during months of therapy? It's possible. After all, therapy and prescription drugs like antidepressants change the brain in surprisingly similar ways.
I hate to argue with Aeschylus, but I see more and more evidence that there's no need to suffer quite so much on the way to self-improvement.


WORCESTER, Mass. (November 20, 2018) – The Worcester State University women's basketball team outscored Western New England University by ten points in the fourth quarter to claim a 66-54 victory over the Golden Bears on Tuesday evening in non-conference action at Brissette Court.
Junior guard Emily Farrell (New Fairfield, Conn.) led the Golden Bears with 15 points, four assists and two rebounds.
Junior forward Meghan Orbann (Easthampton, Conn.) finished with 11 points, seven boards, two steals and one assist, while sophomore forward Emily Scurka (Billerica, Mass.) chipped in with nine points and five rebounds in 14 minutes off the bench.
Worcester State senior center Brittany Herring (West Brookfield, Mass.) paced three Lancers in double figures with a game-high 16 points on 6-of-7 shooting from the field and 4-of-5 from the free throw line. Herring also produced seven rebounds, four assists and three blocks.
Senior forward Kaitlyn Berkel (Waterford, Conn.) posted a double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds, while senior guard Kate Surprenant (Pelham, N.H.) added 12 points, four boards and four assists.
The Lancers, who led 14-13 after the first quarter, outscored the Golden Bears 22-8 in the second period to open up a 36-21 cushion at the break. Western New England was held scoreless over the final 3:47 of the half.
The Golden Bears fought their way back into the game with a 17-4 third quarter edge. Western New England, which closed out the frame with an 8-0 run, limited Worcester State to 1-of-10 shooting in the period.
The Golden Bears were still within two (42-40) following a Scurka layup with just under nine minutes remaining in the game, but Worcester State took control with an 8-0 run over the next three minutes to expand its cushion to ten (50-40).
Western New England was unable to get closer than seven points the rest of the way as Worcester State posted a double-digit triumph.
• Western New England was limited to 31.9% shooting, including 23.8% from three-point range.
• The Golden Bears turned the ball over just seven times while scoring 21 points off 12 Worcester State turnovers.
Western New England (3-2) returns home to open CCC play against Roger Williams next Wednesday, while Worcester State (4-2) travels to Wellesley on Sunday.

DALLAS - Skip Fletcher stood at one of his stands at Fair Park this week, hovering over the deep fryer, watching his beloved corny dogs float in hot oil.
"First corny dog of the season."
He held one in each hand, waving them as if he were conducting an orchestra. He took several bites.
"They're so good," he shouted. "I can't quit eating them!"
Friday was showtime for the crusty, crunchy corny dog, the king of fried foods at the State Fair of Texas.
It's showtime, too, for the Fletchers, the family that created the corny dog in 1942 and continues to lead the operation 70 years later.
The State Fair wouldn't be the State Fair without corny dogs, many say, and the corny dog wouldn't be the corny dog without the State Fair.
The Fletcher brothers who created them, Neil and Carl, passed away in the '80s, but Neil's gregarious sons, Skip and Bill, continue the legacy. About 500,000 corny dogs are sold at the fair each year.
Millions of people have devoured the fried treats, including Mikhail Gorbachev, Julia Child and Oprah Winfrey. Through the decades, the Fletchers have made millions of dollars.
But don't think the Fletchers have had it easy.
Skip Fletcher has lost three sons. A few years ago, his daughter was abducted. Bill Fletcher has lost a wife and a son.
Skip and Bill's brother, Henry, was left mentally disabled after a car crash in the '50s and died in 2009.
Then, last year, there was a family feud. Bill sued Skip, claiming that he was restricting his access to family trusts. Skip denied that, saying he was ensuring the family business survives the second generation.
The brothers resolved the matter and are on good terms.
"It may be a bit top heavy with tragedy, but you just have to take it," said Skip Fletcher, 78, who doesn't mince words. "I don't look back. If you look back and you think about that kind of stuff too much, you want to go out back and kill yourself."
Despite the sorrow, Skip and Bill smile easily and joke often. They are showmen and they love the crowds who come back to the fair each year for their "meal on a stick."
But the time will soon come when Skip and Bill, 68, must pass on the baton - or is it the corny dog stick? - to younger family members.
"It's something that brought us to the dance," Skip said, "and we're going to dance with it as long as we can."
There are three things that people associate with the State Fair of Texas, said Nancy Wiley, the State Fair historian and author of The Great State Fair of Texas. They are the giant talking cowboy Big Tex, the annual Texas-OU football game and the corny dog.
"It's the fair and it's a good time, a family time, and these are 'our' corny dogs, just like he's 'our' Big Tex," Wiley said.
Neil and Carl Fletcher were vaudeville performers in Dallas. They would stop to eat at a place operated by a guy they called "the Old Dutchman." In the oven, muffin tins were filled with hot dogs and cornmeal batter.
The Fletchers thought they tasted great and figured there was a way to make money from the snacks.
They realized they had to speed up the cooking process, so they ditched the oven and tried frying them. They spent months experimenting.
In 1942, they sold the fried hot dogs at the summer midway at Fair Park.
But some say a corn dog called the pronto pup came first, making its debut a year earlier in Oregon.
"I'm kind of like - what was his name - the old Liberace," he said. "They made fun of Liberace, but he laughed all the way to the bank."
It hasn't been all laughs for the Fletchers.
At a funeral for a family member, the pastor told those who had gathered: "The Fletchers have had their share of sorrow."
In 2008, Skip's daughter, Amber Fletcher, was kidnapped for most of a day, blindfolded and bound with duct tape.
Police arrested three suspects and she was found unharmed. She's doing better now, her dad said.
Skip has lost three sons: one in a car accident; a second, a drug addict, committed suicide; and a third died from liver disease.
Bill's wife died from breast cancer when his kids were young. His son, Benjamin, was addicted to drugs and alcohol, and committed suicide in 2009. Bill operates a drug rehabilitation facility in Kemp called the House of Benjamin, where he hopes to "break the chains of addiction."
"I'm barely beginning to get over it," Bill said. "I'm beginning to heal."
Last year, Bill sued his brother over issues surrounding family trusts formed from corny dog sales.
Bill claimed in court documents that Skip, who was the trustee, had changed the trusts so that he enlarged his interest at the expense of others.
"These assets have been parasitically pilfered to the detriment of the beneficiaries of the trusts," the suit stated.
Skip said in court documents that he took "appropriate actions" under the will to insure the corny dog's future, and said that Bill wasn't working enough at the State Fair.
Documents show that a judge ordered Skip last fall to deposit a check to the court for 42.5 percent of the net profits from the 2011 State Fair.
Soon after, a $460,000 check was submitted, which would indicate that last year's net profits were about $1.1 million.
"That's probably close," Skip said. "I would assume that's probably right."
The Fletchers declined to say much about the lawsuit.
"I thought it was ridiculous," Skip said. "We just made a bunch of lawyers very rich."
Bill said he settled the matter with his brother "in love and mutual respect."
Bill and Skip were playful this week at the State Fair as they stood at a corny dog stand, dipping their dogs in mustard.
Ketchup is served to appease the Yankees, they say.
Skip wore a wide smile and corny dog bling - a skinny gold corny dog earring and a larger corny dog necklace made with sapphire eyes, a diamond nose, ruby mouth and mustard on its head.
Skip, who's in charge of quality control, has typically eaten 48 corny dogs during each fair.
His doctor has ordered him to reduce his salt intake, so Skip plans to take bites instead of downing entire dogs.
Practically everyone who's eaten a corny dog has fallen in love at first bite.
Consider Oprah's crazed reaction in 2009 when she taped her talk show at the State Fair.
"Woo hoo hoo," she declared. "Oh my God. I'm gonna want another one of these. That's good. Oh, this is fabulous. This is good!
Skip said Oprah asked for a sack of corny dogs to go, then warned her entourage: "Do not touch any of these."
But, for Bill, nothing tops meeting Mikhail Gorbachev, who declared that the corny dog was like a Russian fried sausage.
"My God," Bill Fletcher said, "I'm shaking hands, looking eye to eye and serving a corny dog" to the former Soviet leader. "Now Oprah's big, but she's not that big. She didn't have her finger on the button."

Q: Real time notification with socket.io and redis In my web app (symfony3) I try to integrate a real time notification system.
I choose to done this with this configuration :
server NodeJS
server redis
socket.io
socket.io-php-emitter (php adaptater for emit notification directly from php)
app.js (server node)
var app = require('express')();
var http = require('http').Server(app);
var server = require('http').createServer();
var io = require('socket.io').listen(server);
var redis = require('socket.io-redis');

io.sockets.on('connection', function (socket) {
  console.log('user connected!');
});

io.adapter(redis({ host: 'localhost', port: 6379 }));
server.listen(8081, 'myhost');

test controller
public function testAction(Request $request)
{
    $notification = 'A message has been received by the server!
'
    $form = $this->createFormBuilder()->getForm();
    $form->handleRequest($request);
    if ($form->isValid()) {
        $redis = new \Redis();
        $redis->connect('127.0.0.1', '6379');
        $emitter = new SocketIO\Emitter($redis);
        $emitter->emit('notification', $notification);
        $response = new JsonResponse();
        $response->setData(array(
            'notification' => $notification
        ));
        return $response;
    }
    return $this->render('@PMPlatform/Test/test.html.twig', array(
        'form' => $form->createView()
    ));
}

client view
$(document).ready(function() {
    // Getting socket
    var socket = io('http://myhost:8081');
    // Listening on notification from server
    socket.on('notification', function (data) {
        $('.server').append('qsfdqsfdqsdfqsfdqsfd');
    });
    // Listener on form submit event
    $(document).on('submit', '.form', function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: '/app_dev.php/test',
            data: $(this).serialize(),
            success : function(response){
                $('.client').append('A message has been sent to server from this client!
');
            },
            error : function(response){
                console.log('Something went wrong.');
            },
            cache: false
        });
        return false;
    });
});

Ok this simple test works fine : when I submit the form from the proper view, a notification is displayed to all client which are on this page.
1- Now I want to one user be able to send a notification only to one another user (when a user comment a post, the author of the post recieved a notification). How I can do this ?
2- If the author is not connected, How I can to save the notification to show it when the author connects back ?

A: For your first question, in the server you maintain in some way, redis for example, a list of all your connected clients by their sockets. But, the key thing here is to pass an id of the user when it connects to the server. Now you have your users in your socket.io server perfectly identified by their id.
io.sockets.on('connection', function (socket) {
  console.log(socket);
});

If you look at the socket object that comes with a connection, there you will have the id of the user that just got connected.
Then when you want to send a notfiication to that user you just have to search in redis for the corresponding socket to the user id you want to send notification. When you instantiate your emitter $emitter = new SocketIO\Emitter($redis); you will have to search in redis for that particular socket - search in redis by user id -
For the second question I won't go into websockets for this feature. Every time a user connects you will have to search in database if he has any pending notification, and send to him. This can be done for a small amount of users without incurring in a heavy computational usage, but this does not scale.
For this purpose I will:

*

*Search in redis for the connected user

*If not connected, save into database the new notification.

*When the user connects again, make a standard HTTP request to the API and send to him all the pending notifications, handling them and making necessary changes.

Hope it helps!
EDIT
I forgot to explain how you pass data on the connection. On the client just do: var socket = io('http://216.157.91.131:8080/', { userId: "myUserId" });. Easy, isn't it?

Do people think their voice counts in the EU?
Two-thirds of Europeans believe EU membership has benefited their country, according to an EU-wide survey to be published on 18 October. This is four percentage points more than in 2016. The share of people who think EU membership has not benefited their countries, on the other hand, fell by six percentage points, from 31% to 25%.
However, results vary from one country to another. While 90% of respondents from Ireland think EU membership has benefited their country, only 39% of Italians would agree. Do people think their voice counts in the EU? Is EU membership of their country a good thing? The answer will come on 18 October when Parliament publishes the full results of a Parlemeter poll, which was carried out last month.

Neverwhere has finally closed, and I can say with certainty that it was the premiere highlight of my theatrical career thus far. I was fortunate to be able to work on a fantastic script based on a wonderful story, with an extraordinary group of talented artists. I've never had this much fun on stage before. I got to be scary and funny at the same time. I got to be larger than life. I got to fight with a quarterstaff, and a machete that sparked. I ate a rat. And an ear.
And Neil Gaiman came to see it.
But the show has closed, as they all must do, and it is time for new adventures. I actually have a few projects lined up that should keep me out of trouble until next summer. First up is a role in Louis Slotin Sonata at A Red Orchid Theatre, followed by a fight director gig on Signal Theatre Ensemble's Accidental Death of an Anarchist, and wrapped up next spring with Lifeline Theatre's adapation of Watership Down. That's right: I'm gonna be a bunny. I also have a workshop or two thrown into the mix, just for funzies.
Speaking of Lifeline, however, I do have some particularly exciting news: I have accepted an invitation to become a member of Lifeline Theatre's artistic ensemble. There was a press release and everything. I spent about a week after receiving the invitation just vibrating with excitement. What made it worse was that the company wanted to hold off on the announcement until after Neverwhere closed, so that whole week was spent sitting on a secret. But it's out now, and I am thrilled. I can't wait to get started.
Cool! Mind if I ask what you'll be playing in Louis Slotin Sonata. I have sort of a strange fascination with that story.


How do prospective employees feel about your company? Are you seen as a desirable place to work?
In today's competitive global employment market, building a strong employer brand can help you attract and retain the best people, giving you a valuable competitive edge.
According to a study on candidate behaviour, 91% of candidates believe an employer brand impacts their decision on whether or not to apply for a specific job. Meanwhile, research by LinkedIn reveals 83% of recruiters believe employer brand significantly impacts their ability to hire great talent.
Here are four ways to create a strong employer brand for your company.
Professional networking sites enable you to create an appealing profile for your company in a place that prospective talent is likely to be looking. On LinkedIn, for example, you can use your company page to share industry insights, work-related stories and updates. In addition to posting written content, you can also build your employer brand by sharing videos, infographics, photos and more to help paint a picture of your company as an employer of choice.
Your staff are powerful ambassadors, so bring them along on your company's journey towards an enhanced employer brand. Encourage them to 'like' or 'follow' your company on social media and to share company posts. Consider profiling members of staff on social media or your website, or producing a behind-the-scenes video of employee life at your company.
While your company website may be the first port of call for many of your customers, a review of your analytics will likely reveal a large number of hits on your employment pages. Given the number of prospective staff who will visit your website before they consider applying to work with you, make sure you use it to sell the benefits of being part of your team. Whether you offer flexible work arrangements, a vibrant office culture or free coffee on Fridays, showcase these benefits to those considering whether they want to work for you.
Building a strong employer brand and being an employer of choice are hard things to fudge. If you talk the talk but don't walk the walk, none of the strategies above will work for you – your existing workforce won't get behind them and the talent you want to attract will see through them. Make sure your company really is a great place to work by listening to your staff, identifying any areas of potential improvement and implementing a targeted strategy.

Teacher Assigns Students to Read About 'Wine-Guzzling Socialist' Jesus Christ
Meredith Jessup
Some parents in Bedford, N.H., are calling for action against school officials who assigned their teenagers a book that refers to Jesus Christ as a "wine-guzzling vagrant and precocious socialist."
The book, "Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America," was assigned as a project of a personal finance class at Bedford High School. One child's parents took their complaints to school district officials who put together a committee of teachers, administrators and community members to assess the book. According to the committee's review, the book's "educational merit" outweighed its questionable passages.
"We found the book provided valuable insight into the circumstances of the working poor and an opportunity for students to demonstrate mastery of the 'Financial Impact' competency," the committee reported.
But the committee's findings did not sit well with Dennis and Aimee Taylor whose son had been assigned the book. "We had almost PhD people letting this fumble through their fingers, and they all said it was grand," Dennis, a conservative Christian, told the Union-Leader. "I think there should be a review of these individuals and perhaps some firing done."
"Nickel and Dimed" is a first-person account of author Barbara Ehrenreich's failed attempts to make a living at various minimum wage jobs across the country. Written in response to 1996 welfare reform, the book offers a serious critique of the current economic system, which Ehrenreich argues preys on the poor. ...
The Taylors also took issue with the book's portrayal of Christians. In one scene, Ehrenreich attends a tent revival meeting, and is troubled by its emphasis on Jesus Christ's crucifixion, rather than his social teachings.
"Jesus makes his appearance here only as a corpse; the living man, the wine-guzzling vagrant and precocious socialist, is never once mentioned, nor anything he ever had to say," Ehrenreich writes.
In addition to its unsavory characterization of Christ, the Taylors also complained about the book's use of obscene language and anti-capitalist message.
"The author is a known social Marxist, hates everything American, everything that America stands for or was built on," Aimee Taylor said. "I mean when you read the book you see that strongly in this woman's agenda. It's horrible."
Indeed, the author of the book, Barbara Ehrenreich, is an ardent political activist on the left who praises socialism and the redistribution of wealth, calls for the end of free-market capitalism and even happily celebrates the anniversary of Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto. (Click here for the "Teacher's Guide" to "Nickel and Dimed.")
Bedford Assistant Superintendent Chip McGee told the Union-Leader that the book committee had decided the author's work as a whole was a worthwhile read for students. "We need to balance the instructional value of the book against its shortcomings, rather than looking at any isolated passage, and rather than looking at the belief system of the author," McGee said.
In response to parents' complaints, the school district has implemented a new policy requiring teachers to notify parents before assigning books in class. If parents object, an alternative is to be provided.
In the meantime, the Taylors have begun homeschooling their son and are reportedly planning to attend an upcoming Dec. 13 meeting of the Bedford School District to request the book be removed from the curriculum.
Perhaps the Taylors' homeschooling curriculum will include "Scratch Beginnings" -- a book written by Adam Shepard, a graduate of Merrimack College who set out to live the American Dream with just $25. Shepard's book was conceived as a counter response to Ehrenreich's "Nickel and Dimed" and "Bait and Switch."

Q: SQLPLUS Records not correctly showing I am currently trying to create a report using SQLPLUS, but the output keeps splitting after showing record #11.

I would like to see all the records under one output. The second columns 'Schema' and 'TOTAL_SIZE_IN_GB' are unnecessary and I want to get rid of them. How can I fix this?
Code:
set verify off
set feedback off
column owner format a15 heading 'Schema'
column total_size format 990.99 heading 'TOTAL_SIZE_IN_GB'

SELECT owner, ROUND(SUM(bytes)/1024/1024/1024, 2) total_size
  FROM dba_segments
 where (segment_type='TABLE' and owner like '%OBS%')
 or (segment_type='TABLE' and owner like '%USR%')
group by owner
 order by total_size DESC;

A: How many rows are shown "per page" is controlled by a setting, pagesize. (This is all SQL*Plus stuff, it has nothing to do with the query itself.) Issue the following SQL*Plus command before you run your query:
set pagesize 3000

(or some other number larger than the number of rows in your output).
Obviously, if you have 10000 rows in the output they will still be broken into "pages" of 3000 rows each, but I hope you are not actually creating a report, for human reading, with 10000 rows. No one will read that.
You could also set the pagesize to zero, but then you won't print column headers anymore; likely not what you need.

Compounds in food packaging materials - toxicological profiling of knowns and unknowns
Anna Kjerstine Rosenmai, Anne Marie Vinggaard (Supervisor), Camilla Taxvig (Supervisor)
Food contact materials (FCMs) are sources of food contamination and human chemical exposure. Some chemicals in these materials are known to cause adverse effects, but many are poorly characterized for their potential toxicological hazards making risk assessment a challenge. The aim of the project was to obtain knowledge on the potential hazards posed by chemicals present in FCMs through examining compounds with known usages or suspected of being used in these materials, namely bisphenol A (BPA), BPA analogues and fluorinated substances. Furthermore, we developed a strategy to identify problematic compounds present in these materials. Specific focus was placed on in vitroendpoints assessing endocrine activity. BPA, five BPA analogues, and 19 fluorinated substances including fluorochemical containing technical mixtures (TMs) were investigated. The in vitro assays included the androgen receptor (AR), estrogen receptor (ER), aryl hydrocarbon receptor, retinoic acid receptor, glucocorticoid receptor, p53, and nuclearfactor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 reporter gene assays, and the H295R steroidogenesis assay. The FCM strategy was a step-by-step procedure in which extracts from FCMs of paper and board were tested in vitro, active extracts were fractionated and tested in vitro, tentative identification was performed in active fractions, and tentatively identified compounds were tested in vitro and quantified in the extract. BPA analogues generally led to similar estrogenic and antiandrogenic effects in vitro compared to BPA. However, the BPA analogue BPS caused less marked effects on most of these endpoints, but led to a more pronounced effects on progestagen levels compared to BPA. Likewise, the effects on corticoid levels in the H295R steroidogenesis assay differed between the six compounds. These data suggest that the tested analogues overall have similar effects on the parameters investigated, though some differed. Therefore based on the presented data, the BPA analogues may not be suitable BPA alternatives. The fluorinated chemicals exhibited endocrine activities distinct from one another, but subgroups of fluorinated chemicals had similar profiles. Polyfluoroalkyl phosphate ester surfactants (PAPs) generally decreased progestagen and androgen levels, fluorotelomer alcohols (FTOHs) generally increased ER activity, and long-chained perfluorinated alkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) generally increased 17β-estradiol levels. Two TMs caused estrogenicity in vitro, whereas none of the short-chained PFCAs caused effects. It is recommended to conduct further studies on polyfluorinated chemicals as well as TMs to obtain more information on the implications of these differences in effect. The developed FCM strategy proved useful for identifying potential problematic compounds in FCMs of paper and board. All extracts from FCMs led to effects in at least one of the applied in vitro assays and we successfully identified five causative agents in two FCMs when applying the full strategy. It is recommended to test more FCMs of paper and board with the strategy to obtain information on other potentially problematic compounds present in these materials. The presented data overall suggest that some compounds present in FCMs or suspected of being used can exert endocrine activities in vitro, though the implications of these findings with respect to effects in humans and exposure to humans remain largely unknown. Nevertheless, it is of concern that so many of the materials and compounds led to effects and calls for further studies to be conducted. The data obtained in this PhD can be used as a prioritization tool for these purposes.

Q: Get only property from object has only one property JQuery How to get only property js object. When I used $('body') it will return sometimes in object form and other times return only a property so how can I perform my task on that property. like..
$('body').html();

// it will return in object
// []
// or sometime it will return only
//
// if it will return in object so i got some error like.

Uncaught TypeError: $(...).html is not a function

How can I make the return property consistent? Because I want to use this in some condition and I can't use it like this if I want to use it every time in object or only one property.
If it returns in object I want to use eq() but I don't know when it return in object form and when it return only property then how can I use eq() because is not use with only property.

A: sometime means nothing in code. If there is another code that defined $ (which probably what is happen), you can replace the jQuery $ function with something like $j.
var $j = jQuery;

That's how you can be sure that a jQuery object will return, then you can use eq without worry.
For example:
$j('your_selector').eq(0);

Live example

var $j = jQuery;

console.log($j('div').eq(0).html());

New Macular Degeneration Treatment on the Horizon?
With researchers at the University of Wisconsin demonstrating they can grow retinal cells from skin cells, a new treatment for macular degeneration may be on the horizong.
Macular degeneration is an eye disease that involves the degeneration of light-sensitive retinal cells in the eye. Treatments are currently available for only wet macular degeneration, leaving people suffering from dry macular degeneration with little or no treatment options.
Growing retinal cells from skin cells could lead to a new treatment for macular degeneration.
As part of their research, human skin cells were manipulated to act like embryonic stem cells. Stem cells can then be used to grow into any tissue in the body, including retinal cells. This research suggests that doctors may be able to repair retinal cells damaged by macular degeneration by growing new cells generated from a patients own skin.
People with macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa, eye diseaseas that eventually lead to blindness, may benefit from this possible new treatment.
According to David Gamm, a professor of ophthalmology and visual sciences at the University of Wisconsin, the laboratory process of creating human retinal cells helps researchers understand how eyes develop, so disease (such as macular degeneration) that lead to vision loss may someday be treated or even cured with retinal stem cells.
This research comes after several other researchers have announced successes using stem cells to treat macular degeneration.
I have been fighting Macular degeneration for about f our years now. At the age of 63 and limited to what I can do I would appreciate any help or information you have.
My father has AMD, he is 86. My mother has had to become his caretaker. If there is a study in which he can participate, how do I find out? It would be wonderful if he could fish, drive or even walk without fear again.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Julio Jones' remarkable return kept the Falcons alive in the NFC South playoff race while Jimmy Graham's fumble at the goal line sank the Saints.
Coming back from a hip injury that had kept him out of practice for two weeks, Jones caught seven passes for 107 yards, and Atlanta remained in playoff contention with a 30-14 victory Sunday.
Matt Ryan completed 30 of 40 passed for 322 yards and a touchdown, and Devonta Freeman ran for a 31-yard score for Atlanta (6-9), which faces Carolina (6-8-1) for the NFC South title next week in the Georgia Dome.
The Saints (6-9), who committed three turnovers in the fourth quarter, lost their fifth straight at home and were eliminated with Carolina's victory over Cleveland.
Jimmy Graham fumbled inside the Atlanta 1-yard line early in the fourth quarter, though whether he actually scored on the play will remain a matter of debate. He tried to push his way through two defenders before Kemal Ishmael ripped the ball away and recovered.
At least one replay angle showed that the ball may have broken the plane the goal line, and the Superdome crowd roared when it was shown on large video boards. However, referee John Parry could not find evidence conclusive enough to overturn the call on the field. Parry's announcement spawned a cascade of boos from anxious Saints fans.
The Saints still had a chance to drive for a winning score in the final three minutes, but Robert McClain's interception of Drew Brees in Saints territory set up a Falcons field goal. The Saints were driving in the final seconds, when Osi Umenyiora returned Brees' fumble for an 86-yard TD as time expired.
Saints offensive players offered only half-hearted pursuit of Umenyiora, who turned and waved goodbye to the Falcons' long-time rivals as he trotted for the score.
The play also punctuated a remarkable performance for a Falcons defense that was banged up and ranked last in the NFL.
Atlanta sacked Brees five times, the most this season for the Falcons' defense, which came in with only 16 sacks.
Brees finished 30 of 47 for 313 yards and one touchdown to Graham, which pulled the Saints as close as 20-14 with 5:48 to go. Brees was also intercepted by Desmond Trufant on a fourth-down pass in the first half.
Jones had not practiced for two weeks and had missed last week's loss to Pittsburgh, but made one first-down catch after another against New Orleans.
All three of his first-half catches went for double-digit yards and extended scoring drives. He had third-down catches of 12 and 24 yards during the Falcons' first touchdown drive. The latter catch in traffic over the middle put the Falcons at the Saints' 3, and Eric Weems scored on a 3-yard shovel pass on the next play.
Seeking for fire up the home crowd in a crucial game, the Saints changed up their introductions, turning off the house lights during a pyrotechnic display while fans held up their mobile phones as if at a concert.
Fans then went into a frenzy when Jalen Saunders returned the opening kickoff 99 yards to set up Mark Ingram's touchdown run on the first play from scrimmage.
But New Orleans struggled to sustain drives after that while the Falcons chipped away with a pair of field goals before taking the lead for good on Weems' TD.

No 'one size fits all' for info exchange
Joseph Conn
Support of incremental change and improvement is one of the guiding principles of the federal effort to promote the use of health information technology, a top federal IT official said at a tech conference in Washington on Tuesday.
But Farzad Mostashari, senior adviser for policy and programs with the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology at HHS, said during his keynote speech to open the Government Health IT 2010 Conference & Exhibition that he was looking for "bold incrementalism."
The day-and-a-half conference is sponsored by the Chicago-based Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society as part of its National Health IT Week activities.
"A lot of what we do can be thought of in that vein," said Mostashari, a physician who as assistant commissioner of the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene headed a task force to bring health IT to the city's primary-care physicians.
An example, Mostashari said, is ONC's dual approach to health information exchange. The ONC still maintains its commitment to a proposed national health information network based on the "query-and-response health information exchange model," Mostashari said. And yet, federal officials realized many providers won't be ready in time to use such a full-bodied exchange to qualify for Medicare and Medicaid IT subsidy payments under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, also known as the stimulus law. So, ONC developed NHIN Direct, a lighter-weight exchange platform.
"There can't be one-size-fits-all for information exchange," he said. "We've recognized we need to use the market, using what's already happening and improve it."
Another potential example of bold incrementalism, Mostashari said, would be the expanded use of metadata, whereby providers would "tag" medical records to add information about records' clinical contexts.
In an interview after his speech, Mostashari said he thought it might be feasible to use metadata tagging, as some privacy advocates have suggested, to track patient data as it moves from healthcare providers through multiple layers of business associates. Under federal law, patient consent is required in the movement of medical records of individuals who have received care from federally funded substance-abuse and mental-health treatment programs. Again, Mostashari suggested, an incremental approach to that use might be best.
"These are thorny issues, but important issues, and we're working to address them," he said. "I think mental health is a good place to start."
