Property Values, Investment Appetite Surge In New York's Many Opportunity Zones

As the commercial real estate industry continues to sort through the details of the new Opportunity Zone program, developers and investors are working to figure out the impact on real estate values in the zones and to sift hype from reality.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury last month released updated guidelines for the federal Opportunity Zone program. The announcement provided some clarity, although there are still lingering questions.
Despite the uncertainty some development sites within the zones have seen price increases as a result of the enormous interest in the program — though they caution not to get caught up in the buzz and to carefully consider the fundamentals of any deals.
"Now that the guidelines are out, funds have ramped up their marketing and become aggressive in pitching investors and family offices," said Rosenberg & Estis real estate attorney Adam Sanders, who is speaking at Bisnow's New York City 2019 Forecast Dec. 13. "But the investors should be asking more questions … [saying] 'what projects are you going to do, specifically?'"
Passed as part of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act in December, the program gives investors a tax break in exchange for investments in low-income communities. The goal is to encourage development in underserved areas.
Nationally, nearly 9,000 communities across the United States were nominated. In New York, there are 514 approved and designated census tracts in the program that include areas across the city, Long Island and rural parts of the state.
The program has attracted significant attention all year, and several companies have been getting ready to make use of it. In August, RXR Realty announced it would aim to raise $500M specifically for opportunity zone projects.
That same month, Shorewood Real Estate Group announced it had closed on a 27K SF development site in Jamaica, Queens, which it said was the firm's first Opportunity Zone Fund platform acquisition. Heritage Equity Partners has also reportedly set up a $100M fund, with a focus on properties in Brooklyn and Queens.
The biggest deal of the year, Amazon's HQ2 choice of Long Island City, itself falls within a zone. Goldman Sachs just invested $83M into a vast affordable housing complex planned for close to the new headquarters, citing its location in the opportunity zone as the attraction.
The impact of the zones has affected development site pricing. Ariel Properties Advisors Executive Vice President Victor Sozio said he is now seeing higher offers on development sites that he is marketing in the South Bronx that are within a zone.

Amazon's HQ2 site in Long Island City was in an opportunity zone.
"There is a [large] site in the Mott Haven area in the South Bronx, which is one of the hotter areas of the Bronx, even separate from the opportunity zones," he said. "It is very close to signing a contract, and I would ballpark the premium being achieved at about 10% to 15% above market, in an already fairly frothy area in the Bronx."
He also pointed to a development site in East Harlem that he said has attracted higher interest because it falls within a Qualified Opportunity Zone. The recent sale of a development site at 4650 Broadway in Inwood is another indicator of the effect: FBE Limited reportedly flipped the site for $55M, twice what it paid in April.
"There are multiple factors that contributed to that," Sozio said. "But I know that the property being in an opportunity zone and in a good location in Washington Heights in Manhattan contributed largely to that sharp increase in value in that short amount of time."
Across the country, the number of sales of development sites in QOZs jumped by 80% in the first nine months of 2018, compared to the same time in 2017, the Wall Street Journal reported last month, citing Real Capital Analytics data. Sellers raised prices on assets in some zones by more than 50%, according to the paper.
Meridian Capital Group Senior Executive Managing Director David Schechtman said at Bisnow's New York State of the Market event Thursday morning prices will certainly be affected.
"[The program will generate] the greatest influx of non-professional real estate capital since the advent of the 1031 [exchange]," Schechtman said. "It's going to artificially inflate the prices. We are seeing it already."
Brokers are advising that deals should still stand on their own merits.
"The features of the opportunity zones are icing on the cake," CPEX Managing Partner Tim King said. "You shouldn't do something silly just for the sake of some tax dollars."

Meridian Managing Director Steven Adler said the market is still trying to figure out the correct premium from the benefit.
"The funds and investors that are looking to deploy capital into opportunity zone projects are still underwriting these transactions based on the conditions in place today and not based on forward projections," he wrote in an email.
Avison Young Head of Tri-State Investment Sales James Nelson believes it will be the second quarter of next year before any clear indicators on the market impact emerge.
Still, he said there is no denying that sites in zones are attracting more attention.
"The real benefit here is supply and demand. A whole new wave of capital is looking in these areas now," he said. "Those dynamics alone are going to create the premiums … [but] the smart investors would say, 'Well, I don't want to pay premiums because of supply and demand.'"
Berdon LLP tax partner and Real Estate Group co-Chair Meyer Mintz said he believes now that guidelines are out, many developers who are planning to establish funds will be looking for suitable properties — but holding off on buying until the new year.
The reason for that is twofold. One is that established funds need to show they are meeting all the requirements by Dec. 31 or within six months of being established, whichever is first. Secondly, having properties under contract and an established plan for what they will do in the zones will make it easier to raise capital from investors.
"I suspect what people are trying to do is lock up properties in contract, and get their ducks in a row … [with the view] of becoming a qualified opportunity fund starting the first of January 2019," Mintz said.
"In real estate, people don't like blind funds," fellow Berdon tax partner Hal Zemel said. "It's much easier for people to raise money if they have properties under contract and say, 'These are the 10 properties that I have locked up, this is my plan,' and attract the capital that way."
Experts said shovel-ready projects will see the most benefits now that the new guidelines are out. The guidelines allow for a "safe harbor" period of 31 months in which funds can disperse capital if it is for construction or improvement of a property, Sanders said.
Funds still need to be able to show that they have a plan and a schedule, and that they are complying with them, he said. But, despite the guidelines, there are still questions around the conclusion of that safe harbor period. Ultimately, investors need to be very careful in where they put their money.
"They need to do their due diligence," he said. "Investors need to make sure the fund is property prepared and guided for compliance to the program."
Sanders, Nelson and Adler will be speaking at Bisnow's New York City 2019 Forecast event on Dec. 13.

The site was part of a tract called "The Rock of Dumbarton" patented 1703 by Ninian Beall. The house was probably started 1799 by Samuel Jackson. It was completed 1805 by Joseph Nourse, first Registrar of the Treasury. He sold the property 1813 to Charles Carroll who named it "Bellevue." Purchased by this Society 1928, it was restored to the early Federal period, renamed; and opened to the public 1932. The house formerly blocked Q Street and was moved to its present location, 1915.
Erected 1951 by National Society of Colonial Dames of America in the District of Columbia.

It's that time of year again when we try to predict what will happen with the Marbella property market. Since 2013, we've seen a steady uptick as foreign investors take a strong interest in Costa del Sol property.
It's that time of year again! It's almost hard to believe another year has passed on the Costa del Sol. For those visiting this Christmas to Malaga province, we've got a great list of things to do this holiday season.
Despite all the Brexit fears about impending doom, it seems once again they were wrong. Even after the Trump shocker in the US, things are still looking positive.
Despite all the Brexit news, UK residents are still buying property on the Costa del Sol. Costa del Sol properties are selling 50 percent faster than in 2015.
The pound is set strong against the Euro, providing a great opportunity for those who wish to invest or buy a property in Marbella, Spain. News is the pound is getting even stronger.
More good news for the Spanish property market, as a landmark agreement is made between the EU & UAE involving visa free travel.

I'm trying to manage the radiogroup listener to send a "poke" in my database.
The code for the http post it's only an example. I have to change it.
Can someone help me?
Thanks

A: You need to find your desired views from the newly inflated mother-view i.e. popupView.
So, change the following (and similar):
badChoise = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.badChoise);

To this:
badChoise = (RadioButton) popupView.findViewById(R.id.badChoise);

A: You are getting NullPointerException because of this line
groupRadio = (RadioGroup)  findViewById(R.id.group);

groupRadio is null object so doing anthing on it for example:
groupRadio.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new OnCheckedChangeListener() {

will throw an exception. Look in your survey layout and check if you define radio group id properly

Q: Reallocate the fraction of weights above threshold to the other weights while maintaining the sum per group I have a dataframe df1 with Date and ID as index and the Weight. I want to set an upper weight limit (30%) of the weights per date. The weights on each day add up to 100% and if I set an upper weight limit, it is the case that the next biggest weight is then bigger than the weight limit of 30%. Is there a way to account for that without doing several iterations? The remaining weight sum which are not bigger than the max weight add up to: 100% - number of max weights reached.
df1:
      Date ID  Weight
2023-01-30  A    0.45  <-- over max weight of 30%
2023-01-30  B    0.25
2023-01-30  C    0.15
2023-01-30  D    0.10

2023-01-31  C    0.20
2023-01-31  D    0.00
2023-01-31  E    0.00

df1:
      Date ID  Weight  Weight_upper
2023-01-30  A    0.45         0.300 <-- set to max weight
2023-01-30  B    0.25         0.318 <-- bigger than max weight
2023-01-30  C    0.15         0.191
2023-01-30  D    0.10         0.127 (ex calculation: 0.1 * (1 - 0.3)/(0.25+0.15+0.1+0.05)
2023-01-30  E    0.05         0.060
2023-01-31  A    0.55         0.300

2023-01-31  D    0.00         0.000
2023-01-31  E    0.00         0.000

For reproducibility:
df = pd.DataFrame({
    'Date':['2023-01-30', '2023-01-30', '2023-01-30', '2023-01-30', '2023-01-30', '2023-01-31', '2023-01-31', '2023-01-31', '2023-01-31', '2023-01-31'],
    'ID':['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E'],
    'Weight':[0.45, 0.25, 0.15, 0.1, 0.05, 0.55, 0.25, 0.2, 0, 0]})
df.set_index('Date')

Many thanks for your help!

A: The logic is unclear, so I'll assume you want to allocate the fraction of the weights above the desired max (0.3) to the other weights in a way that doesn't cause any other weight to become above threshold.
I would compute the difference to the threshold, then split the values into above/below and allocate the extra weight proportionally to the available space for each weight below threshold:
max_weight = 0.3

df2 = df.assign(diff=df['Weight'].sub(max_weight),
                mask=lambda d: d['diff'].gt(0),
                above=lambda d: d['diff'].where(d['mask']),
                below=lambda d: d['diff'].mask(d['mask']),
                )
g = df2.groupby('Date')

df['Weight_upper'] = (df2['below']
                      .div(g['below'].transform('sum'))
                      .mul(g['above'].transform('sum'))
                      .add(df['Weight'])
                      .fillna(max_weight)
                     )

print(df)

Output:
         Date ID  Weight  Weight_upper

Q: Xamarin forms, How do i refresh an image in a listview? <ListView x:Name="PictureListView" HasUnevenRows="True" WidthRequest="320" HeightRequest="400" SeparatorColor="White">
    <ListView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <ViewCell>
                <Image Source="{Binding Path}" HeightRequest="80" WidthRequest="80" Aspect="AspectFill" />
            </ViewCell>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>

ObservableCollection<Image> Pictures = new ObservableCollection<Image>(new Image { Source = "file.png" });
PictureListView.ItemSource = Pictures;

   private async void PictureListView_ItemTapped(object sender, ItemTappedEventArgs e)
{
  var photo = (Image)e.Item;
 photo.Source = "file2.png";
}

i am trying to update an image in a listview using xamarin forms....i have the code listed above....but when the click fires, the new image ("file2.png") doesn't get repainted to the screen. Instead, i just an empty space for where the image would have been. How do i change an image out in a listview?

A: You are using ObservableCollection which will only update the list view when the collection is updated (add, move, remove). In your case, you are only updating the content of the item, so it will not reflect in the screen.
You should implement your code with proper data binding or MVVM. Read more about MVVM HERE.
If you do not want to implement the MVVM, you can use the following tricks.
private async void PictureListView_ItemTapped(object sender, ItemTappedEventArgs e)
{
    var photo = (Image)e.Item;
    var newImage = new Image { Source = "file2.png" };
    var index = Pictures.IndexOf(photo);
    Pictures.Remove(photo);
    Pictures.Insert(index, newImage);
}

A: You should implement INotifyPropertyChanged
Here a sample code
using System;
using System.ComponentModel;
using Xamarin.Forms;

namespace XamlSamples
{
    class ClockViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
    {
        DateTime dateTime;

        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;

        public ClockViewModel()
        {
            this.DateTime = DateTime.Now;

            Device.StartTimer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1), () =>
                {
                    this.DateTime = DateTime.Now;
                    return true;
                });
        }

        public DateTime DateTime
        {
            set
            {
                if (dateTime != value)
                {
                    dateTime = value;

                    if (PropertyChanged != null)
                    {
                        PropertyChanged(this,
                            new PropertyChangedEventArgs("DateTime"));
                    }
                }
            }
            get
            {
                return dateTime;
            }
        }
    }
}

Q: ftp_mdtm function to get latest modified images based on date I am downloading remote images from one server to another and that part I did good. Now I need to download only the newest modified images. Before I even get to that, I am trying to show modification time for all images using ftp_mdtm function. But I keep getting

was last modified on : January 01 1970 01:00:00

I googled and looked for the answer here, but everything I tried didn't help me. The entire code is here:
    <?php
    $ftp_server = "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx";
    $ftp_user = "xxx";
    $ftp_pass = "xxx";
    $DIR="/xxx/";

    $conn = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
 if(!$conn) {
 exit("Can not connect to: $ftp_server\n");
 }

 if(!ftp_login($conn,$ftp_user,$ftp_pass)) {
 ftp_quit($conn);
 exit("Can not log on to\n");
 }

 ftp_chdir($conn,$DIR);

 $files = ftp_nlist($conn,'.');
//var_dump($files);
 for($i=0;$i<count($files);$i++) {

 if(!ftp_get($conn,$files[$i],$files[$i],FTP_BINARY )) {
 echo "Can not download {$files[$i]}\n";
 }
 else {echo "Success";
 $buff = ftp_mdtm($conn_id, $file);

if ($buff != -1) {

    echo "$file was last modified on : " . date("F d Y H:i:s.", $buff);
} else {
    echo "Couldn't get mdtime";
}
 }

 }

 ftp_quit($conn);
 ?>

A: UPDATE: Thanx to great question by @arkascha, I realized I made a mistake in my code. The $buff variable was defined in a wrong way. The correct way is as follows:
     $buff = ftp_mdtm($conn_id);

if ($buff != -1) {

    echo "$file was last modified on : " . date("F d Y H:i:s.");
       } else {
    echo "Couldn't get mdtime";

It was in the middle of one of our monthly BRO meetings when we started discussing our February trail race issue. Seeing as how we are an outdoor magazine, someone brought up the idea that it might be fun if a group from the office got together to run the Ragnar Relay in Richmond, Va.
We're now a month out from the race weekend and training is really kicking into gear. Each member of our team is preparing to run three trail loops for a total of 16 miles over the course of 36 hours. In between loops, runners will rest and hang out with friends at the centralized base camp before gearing up for another round.
We caught up with all the members of the team to see how they are preparing for the big weekend.
Have you competed in other races?
I have run 3 half marathons, two 10 milers (three by the time we do the Ragnar) and lots of short races. They only trail race I have done is the Blue Ridge Burn which is only a 5K, but I do run on the trails around Charlottesville.
I am doing the Charlottesville 10 Miler a month before the race, but then I am getting married and going on my honeymoon, so I am a little nervous, to be honest. When I get back, I plan on doing two a days with a long run the day after to be ready to do 15 miles in 36 hours.
Yes. The Blue Ridge Burn several times.
6:50 AM: Turn off alarm, look at Instagram until I drift back to sleep thinking about how I should get up and do some High Knees.
7:15 AM: Wake up in a panic realizing we're going to be late for school. Adrenaline spike causes heart rate to hit 110% in a matter of seconds.
7:51 – 8:55 AM: BREATH OUT. One long steady outward breath for 50 minutes during commute.
9 AM: Arrive at work. POWER-SKIP all the way to my office.
9:11 – 11:30 AM: Stop checking email to answer a multitude of questions from my office mate about the internet, grammar, journalism, squirrels, dietary supplements, basic arithmetic, and more. All while doing High Knees double-time.
11:31 AM: Realize I'm dangerously close to missing my protein intake goal. Eat 18 Tabasco Slim Jims.
11:42 AM: Sit down and hold on to my office chair with white knuckles because the trans-fat induced psychedelic journey is about to commence.
1:34 PM: The trance reaches its peak. I meet my spirit guide. It's former NBA super star Dennis Rodman. Things get weird. We do more high knees.
3:40 PM: Return to Earth in a complete flop sweat. Vomit.
3:41 – 5:15 PM: Listen to office mate tell me every. single. thing. she did the past weekend.
5:15 – 6:00 PM: Commute home. Maximize this time by doing seated cherry pickers and glute-flexes.
6:02 – 8 PM: Time to carb-load AND re-hydrate! Consume 8 pints of Guinness Stout while doing leg lifts and playing Minecraft with the kid.
8:30 PM: Find the most questionable "cross-fit" trainer on YouTube and proceed to go through their routine with MAXIMUM FORCE.
9:30 PM: Fairly certain I've done permanent damage to myself I wash down 6 ibuprofen and an enthusiast glug of Manischewitz.
Yes, about 7 years ago I started running for my health (and let's face it- probably my mid-life crisis- since I was almost 40!) I have done a bunch of 5ks, several mud and adventure races, and then 2 years ago I did the Virginia 10 miler.
Sleeping late and drinking whiskey- but seriously- I have been running weekly and then recently started going to a sadistic torture professional- otherwise known as a personal trainer. She's great- I come away weekly remembering all the muscles I forgot I had for the last 20 years and with bruises and stories to entertain the whole office.
Yes! I distinctly remember my first XC race in middle school and thinking to myself, "This is the worst thing I have ever done. I will NEVER EVER EVER do this again." I saw my then crush's mom cheering me on and thought "PAM PLEASE LOOK AWAY. DON'T LOOK AT THE SHAME OF YOUR FUTURE DAUGHTER IN LAW." I don't know why I kept running after that, but it's been over 9 years since my first race, and I've raced more 5ks than I can count! Never anything longer than a 5k though… Sooooo this should be interesting. I've never raced on a trail, but I'm excited too because I love trail running! I feel like a deer galloping through the forest in slow motion… I'm hoping running in slow motion doesn't hurt my time.
I try to do some kind of workout every day and been making it a point to make those workouts runs as much as possible. Also, a friend recently taught me how to body roll in case I trip and fall head first. I can be clumsy on non-level terrain so that's an important skill to me. Let's see if it works ha! Also, VEGETABLES.
Hahaha. I ran one 5k my freshman year of college and almost threw up as I crossed the finish line. I have not run a race since then.
I am trying to run a couple times a week mixed with some core workouts. I've also been doing a lot of ankle strengthening exercises because I have sprained my ankles playing soccer too many times to count and they've never fully healed.
Quick thank you to Jordan, Alec, and Cailyn, friends of BRO, for rounding out our team and, truthfully, picking up our slack on the course. Check back in a few months to see how the BRO team fared out on the trail.

The first and second grades are busy, active classrooms full of children reading, writing, learning math, discussing their learning, and expressing their faith. Instruction is differentiated for all students, so that each child is able to increase their knowledge and skills at their own level.
The students develop many skills, such as visualizing, comparing and contrasting, making connections, and determining the main idea to help them understand the material they are reading. Teachers also use the 6+1 Traits of Writing model to help children develop their writing skills in many different areas.
The envision 2.0 Math program is used to teach children to use higher level thinking skills, learn the basic facts, and continue to deepen that knowledge.
In Religion class students learn the basics of the Catholic Faith, such as learning the parts of the church building, the parts of the Mass, the life of Jesus and the holy family, and memorizing basic prayers. Students also prepare for sacraments and study the weekly scripture readings. Students in these grades also go to one hour of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd each week.
Science, social studies, handwriting, and art are also taught as part of the weekly classroom schedule in a two-year themed cycle. Students attend music, physical education, and technology classes two or three times a week. There are two music concerts each year.
Students in grades 3-4 are offered a rigorous, experiential curriculum that accommodates all learners. We educate the whole child, spirit, mind and body.
Daily Religion class comprises: church doctrine, the communion of saints, sacraments, the marks of the Church, memorized prayers, moral decision-making and scriptural reflection, the structure of the mass, the trinity, and saints as models for Christian living. Additionally, children participate in daily prayer, weekly liturgies, and the celebration of Sacraments.
The reading program emphasizes excellent children's literature, nonfiction, comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, and study skills. Students write in every subject area, using 6 + 1 Traits of Writing as a model.
Third and fourth grade students intensively study and practice cursive handwriting.
The math program at St. Peter's Catholic School develops students' critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
The science program teaches the children to observe, notice, compare, measure and hypothesize about experiential lessons. The topics in grades three and four are: physics of sound, magnetism, electricity, astronomy, Earth Science- rocks and minerals, water, the water cycle, Life Science – the human body, the human ear, plants, and butterflies.
Students study units in social studies focused on the regions of the United States, map skills, community, and the rain forest.
Students attend music twice a week. Recorder performance begins in grade 3 and continues through grade four. Students also learn Orff pitched instruments and non-pitched percussion instruments as well as improved singing technique. Students perform in two concerts each year.
Art instruction introduces students to accomplished artists and various pieces of art. Students then explore art using different art media, while listening to corresponding classical music.
All new students, including kindergarteners, will need headphones that are compatible with a computer. They can be purchased at Target, Wal-Mart, etc. for $5.99 and up. Please put the student's name on the headband & on a resealable plastic bag for storage. Returning students in grades 1-8 will be notified if you need to purchase headphones.
Students in ALL grades will need a pair of tennis shoes for Phy. Ed.
Students in grades 3 & 4 can order recorders for music or borrow a school recorder. Forms are provided during Open House.

Q: What is the result of ${^{i}i}$? $i+i=2i$, $i\cdot i=-1$, $i^i=e^{-\pi/2}$, but what is the result of ${^{i}i}$? That is, what is the $i$-th tetration of $i$?

A: At this time, we don't even have a definition of tetration with rational heights, let alone complex ones. (If we did, we might try to treat real heights by limits, then complex heights by some as yet unimaginable generalization.) Why not?
I can define $x^{3/2}$ as the solution of $y^2=x^3$, because the associativity of multiplication ensures this $y$ also satisfies $y^{2n}=x^{3n}$, as we'd expect of $x^{(3n)/(2n)}$. But the same trick doesn't work with ${}^{3/2}x$, since exponentiation doesn't associate (or commute, for that matter).
See also here.

A: In order to answer your question we first need to extend tetration to allow complex bases and heights. To the best of my knowledge there is no currently accepted way to do this, so your question is not really answerable.
Keep in mind that priori there is no reason for a function $\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{N}$ to have a "natural" extension to a larger domain like $\mathbb{Q},\mathbb{R}$, or $\mathbb{C}$. Of course many functions do have this property (addition, multiplication, exponentiation with some subtleties, the factorial, ...), but this sort of generalizability should not be assumed at the outset.
There has been some work on extending tetration to complex bases and heights, although like I said above I don't believe that any of it reaches expressions like ${}^ii$. See e.g. here or here.

Q: How can I know the queues created in celery with -Q argument? I want to load a different configuration for Celery workers depending on which queueu I'm initializing. Specially, I want to change its concurrency.
I have seen that concurrency can be changed if I load it in the config. For example, if I do:
celery_app = current_celery_app
# myconfig is a py file with all configuration, including concurrency
celery_app.config_from_object(myconfig, namespace='CELERY')

Then I saw that I can ask for signals, like:
@celeryd_init.connect
def configure_workers(sender=None, **kwargs):

    if 'celery' in celery_app.amqp.queues.keys():
        celery_app.config_from_object(config, namespace='CELERY')
        celery_app.conf.update(worker_concurrency=4)

    elif 'queue2' in celery_app.amqp.queues.keys():
        celery_app.config_from_object(config, namespace='queue2')
        celery_app.conf.update(worker_concurrency=2)

Here I saw that excluding the worker_concurrency from config and changing it with celery_app.conf.update(worker_concurrency=4) also works. However, this solution could fulfill my necessity if I could read the queues I'm starting.
To init the celery app I do:
celery -A run_api.celery worker -Q queue2

But if I print the queues in my first or second code example I'm always getting only one queue when executing celery_app.amqp.queues.keys(): celery (which is the default one). If I try any other signal, such as celeryd_after_setup, worker_ready, worker_start I see the queue queue2 if I execute celery_app.amqp.queues.keys(). However, if I try to do
celery_app.conf.update(worker_concurrency=2)

there's no change in concurrency. I'm out of ideas. How can I read celery queues passed in -Q argument in celeryd_init signal? or how can I change the concurrency after the worker is created?
This project is for FastAPI interconnection. I'm not using Django.

A: I found a workaround. It's not what I would like to, but I think it's more general than initializing celery with --concurrency, which was my last option in case I couldn't find a better one. My workaround:
I found that you can start celery with -n option. This changes the name of the celery:
celery -A run_api.celery worker -Q queue2 -n queue2_name

Then in the signal:
@celeryd_init.connect
def configure_workers(sender=None, **kwargs):

    worker_name = sender.split("@")[-1]
    # sender is celery@what_you_put_after_-n
    # in this case queue2_name

    if 'queue2' in worker_name:
        celery_app.config_from_object(config, namespace='queue2')
        celery_app.conf.update(worker_concurrency=2)
    else:
        celery_app.config_from_object(config, namespace='CELERY')
        celery_app.conf.update(worker_concurrency=4)

I'm working with celery 5.2.6

Hi everyone from my little corner in the world!
This is the last BookEnding Winter 2018 post and I have chosen to post it on the last day of the year because it talks about goals! OK I will admit..maybe its not the last day of the year in some places in the world but I am taking my chances with this one since I have only just now found some time to write the post.


While in the wilderness, a hunter has only his wits and hunting gear to rely upon. It is only through sheer cunning and the proper equipment that a hunter can hope to successfully complete a hunting objective safely. Not every hunter may have the smarts and skill necessary to achieve a hunting goal, but all hunters have the potential to have the proper hunting gear to help them. Starting with the basic hunting gear and making sure that it is appropriate is the best first step toward a successful hunting trip. Where safety is concerned, one primary piece of hunting gear is a reliable, high quality flashlight, like and LED tactical torch or professional flashlight. There are many different aspects that set professional quality hunting flashlights apart from your everyday flashlight.
Lesser quality lights use inefficient poor quality incandescent bulbs. For an activity like hunting, LED technology really is the better option. High-intensity LED bulbs give off a brighter, clearer light for greater distances. They also have a much longer bulb and battery life, making them more energy efficient and less expensive to maintain in the long run. Many professional hunting flashlights also include a variety of different LED light colors to help preserve night vision.
With lower quality incandescent flashlights, you will rarely find multiple light functionality. However with professional hunting flashlights there are many options available that include more than one light bulb color within the same flashlight housing. For instance, a professional LED flashlight may include a hyper bright white light, and then a dimmer green or red bulb for use when reading equipment, maps or instructions in the dark. These alternate colors help sustain night vision without creating light noise in the surrounding area. This is a highly important feature for sportsmen looking for versatility in a compact form factor, virtually eliminating the need to carry around multiple light sources. Many hunting LED flashlights also offer dimming light functions so that hunters can choose the exact light level necessary to complete whatever task. Dimmable bulbs are important for preserving night vision, as well as the ability not to spook nearby animals with overly bright lights. This focusing and dimming of light beams is usually controlled by a simple switch or knob that can be operated with ease using one hand. Form factor can also play a large role in what separates a professional quality hunting flashlight from a standard flashlight. Sportsmen are usually overrun with the hunting gear that they have to carry.
Having a small, durable, and light weight flashlight is highly important. Additionally the flashlight must be easy to grip in all kinds of conditions - hunters may need to operate a flashlight with wet or muddy hands or while wearing bulky gloves. Lights for hunting don't always have to take the form of a flashlight or torch. Many hunters will take a sturdy lantern or lamp with them to help bathe a larger area in light, like a base camp area or a kill site. LED lanterns offer the same simple switch capabilities, bright light, and battery efficiency as their flashlight counterparts. Others wear a headlamp or flex light on their head or attached to their vest so that they have a small, powerful light at the ready and still have full use of their hands. Hunting takes skill. It takes practice. It takes appreciation for nature. It also takes quality equipment.
Don't settle for anything less than the best hunting light available when putting together your hunting fear. ~Ben Anton, 2008.

Movies Games and Tech
3 / 10.0 - Remothered: Broken Porcelain
There's an interesting concept for a horror game here with an insane story burdened by many issues. It's a shame since the story is interesting, but not interesting enough to put up with so many flaws. Perhaps the true villain in Remothered: Broken Porcelain are the lengthy loading screens (on Xbox One at least) that will surely haunt the dreams of those that experience them.
8 / 10.0 - Foregone
Forgone might not be a ground-breaking experience, but it's definitely one that will very likely pleasantly surprise those that play it.
7 / 10.0 - Okunoka Madness
OkunoKA Madness does have some flaws, but it's still definitely worth playing for those who enjoy testing the limits of their patience and have the necessary reflexes of a ninja to simultaneously avoid multiple dangers.
6 / 10.0 - Maid of Sker
It's a terrible shame that a game that was initially brimming with potential squanders quite a lot of it by the time that it's almost over. More so when considering that the story is actually quite good and it has some clever moments towards the end. There's definitely a good game here buried beneath some dodgy ideas that can make playing Maid of Skar feel like a chore at times.
7 / 10.0 - Super Mario 3D All-Stars
Super Mario Galaxy has aged like a fine wine, but one that is occasionally inconvenienced by controls that can feel odd for those who played the Nintendo Wii/Wii U version and that make it harder than necessary to get some of the stars. In fact, the HD makeover given to all three titles is definitely a good reason for playing them. Surely, one or more of the games will bring back fond memories for some and create new ones for anyone lucky enough to experience them for the first time. It's just slightly disappointing that the games won't feel the same as their originals and the lack of any proper extra content makes for a no frills collection.
4 / 10.0 - Waking
Ultimately, Waking is its own worst enemy, since it seems confused as to what kind of game/experience it wants itself to be. The memory sections are interesting to say the least, but Waking has burdened itself with some really average action sequences.
4 / 10.0 - We Should Talk
Whilst We should talk picked some interesting topics to discuss (cheating, codependency, abuse, etc) regarding relationships, it doesn't do a particularly good job of exploring them. It's clear that the potential is there and yet it feels like it has mostly been squandered in a very average visual novel.
6 / 10.0 - Superliminal
Despite a better use of its dream setting with some more exciting puzzles to solve in the seconds half, there is no denying that it still doesn't make the most of the setting. Specially during early moments when going through dull locations, like a hotel, whilst listening to the same boring music track that makes it very difficult to find a reason to keep going. It's a shame to see Superliminal not making the most of its dream material, but at least it does somewhat make up for it with the occasional clever idea.
8 / 10.0 - CARRION
Carrion proves that it's a capable beast of a game that is able to entertain for the couple of hours that its story lasts. It's shocking and gruesome at times without any real meaning and that makes it all the more worth experiencing.
7 / 10.0 - Paper Mario: The Origami King
Whilst it's commendable to see Nintendo being more daring with its key franchises, it's clear that it didn't quite work out on this occasion with this new Paper Mario entry. Paper Mario: The Origami King makes for a mostly fun adventure that is bogged down by some ideas that didn't quite work as expected.


10 Yetis Public Relations Agency suggest you all check your bins...!
The binmen of Lincolnshire have had their Christmas tip early this year, when thousands of pounds worth of £10 and £20 notes were found sliced into irrepairable pieces and dumped in two waste bins in a city centre.
Is this what the Government meant by saving money with fortnightly bin collections...?!
Whoever is responsible for this is welcome to leave money in the Yeti bins!

Екстензивна форма игре је спецификација игре у теорији игара. Ова форма представља игру као стабло. Сви чворови (чворови одлучивања) представљају свеа могућа стања игре. Игра почиње из јединственог почетног чвора, и тече кроз стабло дуж путање коју одређују играчи, док не стигне до неког терминалног чвора, када се игра завршава и додељују одговарајући добици свим играчима. Сваки нетерминални чвор пипада неком играчу; тај играч бира између могућих потеза у датом чвору. Сваки могући потез је одређен граном која води из тог чвора до неког другог чвора.

Екстензивна форма је алтернатива нормалној форми. За разлику од нормалне форме, екстензивна форма дозвољава експлицитно моделовање интеракција у којима играч повлачи више од једног потеза током игре.
