Seattle's Snow Event
We started February with an epic birthday party for our twin friends, Carson and Brenna, who were turning six. Face painting was very popular. Rainbows are Sammy's number one thing.
Since we call B abeja (Spanish for bumblebee), and he occasionally signs his name "Bee," he has an affinity for bugs.
Eloise likes all marine animals, but I think she is particularly drawn to sharks since she doesn't have many teeth of her own left.
You know how we weren't sure we were going to get any weather this year since it had been extra sunny during our whole rainy season? Well, on February 3 it started to snow. We rushed out to take a picture with some snowflakes since it was bound to end soon.
It didn't end. That night we had a snow throwing party with our church friends who came over for dinner.
The next day school was cancelled, so it was a snow party all day long. Fortunately, everyone had snow gear that fit because of an upcoming snow trip we had planned, so we were all set for what turned into a major snow event.
Jared is really a very patient brother. B wanted to see what he was doing, so he climbed into the unused portion of the chair.
No school again on Tuesday.
We mixed up our snow play (the kids spent HOURS on end outside every snow day) with a little bit of painting and art in the house.
Sammy discovered board games. He can play approximately three games without any assistance (chutes and ladders, a candy land variation we have with My Little Ponies, and the Hatchimals game), and he begs to play them every single day. He has caught on to Todd and Jared's fascination with games, although they tend to choose more complex strategy games. Jared and B will play with him sometimes. Snow days make them more agreeable to playing "baby" games.
School started late on Wednesday. Sammy and I saw the kids onto the bus and then headed to the temple. Only later did we learn that the bus had broken down several blocks from the school, and the kids had waited on the bus for an hour for a mechanic to come and fix the bus. Since Jared takes the bus to the younger kids' school and then continues on to his school, he didn't get to school until his class was already at lunch! The transportation department forgot to notify Jared's school about his late arrival, since they had put the other kids that ride from Sandburg to Thoreau on a different, functional bus, so Jared's school called me while I was in the temple and left me a message saying that Jared was not in class.
Thursday was back to an ordinary schedule. It was still cold and snowy outside, so Sammy and I had to keep playing games.
Friday also started as a normal day, but school was released two hours early because of forecasted snowfall in the afternoon. I spent all day scoffing about the over reaction of the school district, but, sure enough, snow started trickling down around 3:30, and, by the time the buses would have been driving kids home, snow was accumulating rapidly. More snow fun for the kiddos!
Jared left me this cute, tiny snowman on the porch.
Because our time is compressed during school weeks, with school in session until 4, and then after school activities Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, we made our Valentines on Saturday. The kids each picked out a printable Valentine online, which I printed at the library, They then mounted them on cardstock and attached goodies. Eloise picked a color by number that said, "You color my heart," and taped crayons to the back.
Jared, king of puns, had a Valentine that said, "Yoda best, Valentine!" He punched holes in Yoda's hand and stuck a glow stick bracelet in as a light saber. B got dollar store dinosaurs and tied them to his "I think you're dino-mite!" Valentines, which I though was pretty kindergarten perfect.
Todd and I had been scheduled to go to a hockey game in Kent on Saturday, but we were snowed in. Our street was impassable, and the weather was volatile. On Sunday, Todd helped the kids build a snow fort.
Monday was another snow day with no school, so I helped the kids build a second fort, and we had an epic snow battle. Todd had been working from home so he wouldn't get stranded at work. Monday his bus wasn't even attempting to run, so he had no choice but to work from home, with the occasional snowball fight break.
The schools issued reading challenges to get the kids to use their snow days constructively. A lot of the time we weren't playing in the snow was spent curled up in blankets with books, but I don't think the school challenges made any difference in how much reading the kids did. Eloise did write a story about our snowball fight to turn in. The kids could turn in reading minutes or written stories for raffle tickets for a pizza party with the principal.
Our favorite mountain biking hill in the woods turned out to be a neighborhood favorite sledding hill, too.
I was very prepared for more snow days. The weather report was astonishingly accurate for the duration of our snow event, so I stocked up on crafts. The kids helped Sammy paint a small wooden alphabet so that he could practice letter recognition. Jared used to shun this sort of thing, but he informs me that public school art is "bomb" (like now kids are in too much of a hurry to use articles, so days of "the bomb" are over), so he is willing to participate in this kind of thing, after a great show of reluctance.
Siblings are more effective teachers than parents are.
On Tuesday, school was cancelled again. Jared's teacher sent a picture of a funny little snowman she had built to the class and challenged them to build a better one. The little hooligans decided to clear off the car instead.
Wednesday was Valentine's day, but school was still not back in session. We had to make do with a wrestling/pillow fight/couch destroying party with Emily and Katie while their mom ran some errands.
We were already scheduled to have Thursday and Friday off of school. Those were the days when we had planned since December to go to the mountains and have our mini winter vacation and see snow. We were faced with the possibility of being snowed in and missing our snow vacation!

Q: Append Python returns instead of overwriting I'm teaching myself Python and writing a simple GPA calculator. I have very little programming experience prior other than a college Java course, so bear with my code.
The premise is, the code will ask if you want to add a course to the list. If you do, it runs a function asking you the class name. Every time you add a class it'll ask if you want to add another. If you don't, it'll spit out a list of the classes you've added and then ask you to enter in the grades. I didn't get the grading part done yet. I don't think that will be too hard.
The problem is you can add a bunch of classes and it will only spit out the last one you entered. I'm assuming the issue is in askAgain(): classList = addClasses() because it keeps overwriting, but I'm not sure how to avoid a global variable (since they're bad?) and still keep this from overwriting itself. I seem to draw a blank when trying to figure out how to call something once to intialize it and not run it again. I've also read that conditional variables are bad, so I'm not sure what's best practice here. thanks
def main():
    askAgain()
    return 0

def askAgain():

    while True:
        addOrNot = raw_input("Add a class? [y/n]: ")
        if addOrNot == "Y" or addOrNot == "y":
            classList = addClasses() #This is probably where my issue is.
        else:
            try:
                editClassGradeSelection = mainMenu(classList)
                addGrades(editClassGradeSelection, classList)
            except:
                print("Hey you didn't add any classes yet.")

def addClasses():
    try:
        if classList in locals():
            print("debug msg - classList exists")
    except:
        classList = []

    classList.append(raw_input("Add class to the list: "))
    return classList

def mainMenu(classList):
        print("Here are the classes you've added: ")
        counter = 0
        for classes in classList:
            print((str(counter+1)) + ". " + (str(classList[counter])) + "\n")
            counter = counter + 1
        while True:
            editGrade = raw_input("Enter the number for the class grade to edit: ")
            if int(editGrade) > len(classList) or int(editGrade) < 1:
                print("Enter a proper number in the range listed.")
            else:
                break

        return editGrade

def addGrades(editClassGradeSelection, classList):
    print("debug stuff for now: ")
    print((str(editClassGradeSelection)))
    print((str(classList[:])))

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

A: Although this snippet makes sure classlist is defined:
try:
    if classList in locals():
        print("debug msg - classList exists")
except:
    classList = []

classlist is a local variable, hence everytime you run that function, classlist will be [], which probably explains why you can't ever display more than one. The classlist you assign it to gets reassigned to the one element of classlist (addClasses scope) every time this line is called:
        classList = addClasses() #This is probably where my issue is.

Apology for Use of Image in Huffington Post Blog
in Consent Culture
We would like to apologize for the photo that appeared in social media posts for our recent blog post on Huffington Post Canada Living, "Stop Erasing Sexual Abuse Survivors with Disabilities."
The photo was selected by Huffington Post. We chose a stock image of newspapers to appear with the post, but it was replaced by blog editors. The image chosen by HuffPost was from Getty Images but was shared without the woman in the photograph's consent, which is unacceptable, and we apologize for the impact this has caused. To rectify this we have contacted HuffPost editors to request that the image be replaced immediately, and they have acted quickly to ensure that it will no longer be associated with our article.
We were unaware that the woman in the photo had not given consent for the photo in Getty Images to be shared and deeply apologize for the harm we have caused her through sharing it. Unfortunately, the image cannot be removed from existing tweets that have been shared to date but any future share of the article will not include it.
We know it's too late for this to help those that we have harmed, but also wanted to acknowledge that what happened isn't acceptable and we're taking steps (that should have been taken previously) to ensure that it doesn't happen again. In the future, we will be more diligent in ensuring that imagery accompanying our writing is being shared consensually. We are committed to creating consent culture, and that includes controlling when and how images are shared. If we can't come to terms with HuffPost that make us feel secure that this will not happen again, we will no longer post our content on their platform.
Thank you to those that informed us of this issue. We apologize to everyone for the harm we caused.

A microphone converts sound, an acoustic signal, into an electric signal. For example for amplification during a concert, or to make a recording. There's a different kind of microphone for each use. Which microphone do you need for speeches, karaoke, and live singing? Which microphone is best for recording singing or instruments for professional music production? On this page, we'll explain to you when to use which microphone. This way, it'll be easy to find the best microphone for you.
1. What kind of microphone should you use to amplify speech and live singing?
2. What kind of microphone should you use to record singing and instruments?
3. In what direction does a microphone record?
4. What connector do you need?
For speech, karaoke, and singing, a dynamic microphone is most suitable, since this type of microphone can handle high sound pressure. It also has a durable construction, since it will need to be able to withstand a bump here and there on stage and at the bar. A downside of dynamic microphones is that they're not as good at registering nuances in the sound at high frequencies. This means that, for example, a very high-pitched singing voice won't sound as good. Is it important that the microphone should be suitable for this? In that case, have a look at a condenser microphone.
If you want to record singing and instruments like acoustic guitar, violins, and wind instruments for music productions, a condenser microphone will usually be the best choice, since condenser microphones are highly sensitive. They also provide high-quality clear, high-resolution audio. There's a reason, of course, that condenser microphones are often used as studio microphones. A downside of condenser microphones is that they need an adapter. Because of their high sound pressure, drums and electric guitars are best recorded with a dynamic microphone.
Microphones are definitely not always equally sensitive in every direction; rather, they have directional characteristics. Common characteristics include: omnidirectional, cardioid, and bidirectional.
Omnidirectional A microphone with an omnidirectional character is unfocused and equally sensitive on all sides. This is useful if, among other things, you want to include ambient noise in your recordings.
Cardioid Cardioid microphones have a kidney-shaped directional characteristic and are much more sensitive at the front than at the rear. This is useful when you specifically don't want to record ambient noise.
Bidirectional A microphone with a bidirectional character is equally sensitive at the front and at the rear, but a lot less at the sides. Use this type of microphone, for example, when doing interviews, and record both sides of the conversation, without unwanted noises from the side.
The standard microphone connector is XLR, although there's also microphones with jack or USB connectors. Sound equipment, such as mixers or audio interfaces, often works with both XLR and jack. Want to record directly to your computer, without any other equipment in between? In that case, a USB microphone is the best solution. These microphones are available in dynamic and condenser types, and are often used for podcast voice-over and radio.
Microphones usually come without a cable or stand. These accessories are indispensable. Because condenser microphones are very sensitive, they also record any breath and any plosive sounds like p and b. In order to prevent this, we recommend a pop filter. This is a round shield that you attach to the stand. Condenser microphones with XLR connectors need voltage in the form of phantom power. You'll find this power on professional sound cards, also called audio interfaces, among other things. An audio interface carries the microphone's electric signal forward to the computer, allowing you to record the sound. An audio interface is not necessary when you have a USB microphone.


The first half of the eighteenth century was coloured by the romantic Rococo tapestries produced by Boucher and Oudry at Beauvais. They depicted an idealized way of life ad were typified by scenes of young people dallying in idyllic country settings. Full of wit, vitality and pretty girls, they were perfectly suited to the boudoirs. Great selection of the European tapestries on classical themes, decorative allegories and pastoral scenes inspired by Francois Boucher, the famous French painter.

2011 Anwilka, Stellenbosch
Red | Ready, but will improve | Anwilka | Code: 32139 | 2011 | South Africa > Stellenbosch | Cab.Sauvignon Blend | Medium-Full Bodied, Dry | 14.5 % alcohol
At first a very shy and reticent nose; with time and gentle coaxing we get hints of Damson, Blueberry, hints of mint leaf and graphite. The medium palate is full of black morello cherry, juicy and yet tightly wound with fine grained tannins, and great tension created by the well balanced acidity. This is a classy wine, more similarities to the Old World style than New World. Deserves at least another 2 to3 plus years in bottle and will effortlessly move into the 2020s. The nearest to a Bordeaux wine you'll get in the Cape.
Stuart Rae - Private Account Manager
The 2011 Anwilka has an intense, pure blackcurrant nose and immediately feels like a top-notch, modern South African wine. Layers and layers of blackberries with red bramble fruits and even more blackcurrants wash over the palate. The intensity of fruit lends a mouth-coating texture to the wine. This is supported by plentiful tannins, which have a corduroy feel, giving an overall impression of smoothness. A gentle vanilla note and a twist of cedar spice lifts the finish and the long length just rolls on and on. Made from 67% Syrah, 31% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Petit Verdot, this is another great wine from Anwilka.
Catriona Felstead MW, New World Buyer
The Wine Advocate - The 2011 Anwilka is a blend of 67% Syrah, 31% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Petit Verdot fermented in troconic tanks and raised in 50% new French oak for 15 months. It has a lifted blueberry, iodine and violet-scented bouquet complemented by mint with aeration. It is quite closed at the moment, as is usual for such a young wine. The palate is full-bodied with fine tannins, nicely judged acidity and attests more elegance and tension than demonstrated by the 2009 Anwilka, though it does not possess the same level of persistency. Still, this is commendable. Drink 2015-2022.
Neal Martin - 31/10/2013
Other - 2011 confirms serious vein noted in 2009 (2010 untasted). Now 67% shiraz with cab and drop petit verdot. Youthful and still showing oak, lots of ripe fruit translating into power and firm tannic structure. Deserves good few years to soften, and gain more harmony, charm.
wineonaplatter.com
Anwilka Vineyard started as a joint venture between Bordeaux's Bruno Prats, former owner of Ch. Cos d'Estournel, Hubert de Boüard de Laforest, co-proprietor of Ch. Angélus in Bordeaux, and Lowell Jooste of South Africa's Klein Constantia Estate.
Located in the prime red wine region of Helderberg in Stellenbosch, the vineyard was purchased in 1997, and production of Anwilka wines commenced in 2005.
In May 2012, Anwilka Vineyards merged with Klein Constantia Estate, having been purchased the previous year by Zdenek Bakala and Charles Harman. The vineyards are run by manager Piet Neethling and the wine, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz with the addition of Merlot in some vintages, is made by the very personable South African oenologist Jean du Plessis under the guidance of Prats and de Boüard.
The philosophy of the owners is simply to spare no cost when it comes to wine quality. Resources are not squandered on lavish gateways and buildings, and the winery feels more like a modern farm outbuilding. The wine is exceptional, with the influence of its Bordeaux mentors clear for all to see.
Cab.Sauvignon Blend
Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.
In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% (Mouton-Rothschild) to as low as 40%. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity.
In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia.
Stellenbosch is South Africa's best-known wine region, producing a wide variety of wines from leading estates, even though it accounts for less than 20 per cent of the country's total production. Designated wards within the wine region are Jonkershoek Valley, Simonsberg-Stellenbosch, Bottelary, Devon Valley and Papegaaiberg.
At 17,500 hectares, Stellenbosch remains the Cape's most famous and important fine wine district, thanks to its proximity to Cape Town, to the cooling influences of False Bay, its mountainous (ie Helderberg, Simonsberg), granitic topography and its centres of learning such as Elsenburg Agricultural College.
It's notable for the refinement of its Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, especially from the likes of Glenelly Estate, Keermont Vineyards Oldenburg Vineyards, Raats Family and Anwilka

Bus of Finnish Ya Basta stopped by Swedish police
YB Helsinki | 10.06.2001 20:01
On Sunday (June 10th) Swedish police stopped 50 finnish passengers in Stockholm at the Viking Line ferry-terminal. The group was travelling to Gothenburg by a bus organised by Helsinki Ya Basta collective. These 50 people will participate in demonstrations and meetings during the EU Summit.
The police emptied out all the luggage but did not find anything to seize. The search lasted longer than half an hour.
The police announced, that there was a specific reason for this policy, but refused to tell what it was. The only explanation that they gave was that the passengers came from outside the Schengen-region (from Marienhamn).
Ya Basta considers the police action completely unfounded and unacceptable. These policies violate also the travelling-freedom, one of the basic rights of EU citizens. According to the agreements, freedom of travelling cannot be restricted without appealing to "general order, security or people's health", and this right does not depend on the purpose of one's trip. As Ya Basta states, it would be totally senseless to regard socially and politically active citizens as a threat to security. This incident is very exceptional also because of the Nordic passport-freedom, which concerns all Finnish people travelling to Sweden.
Ya Basta demands that the Swedish officials respect the freedom of movement and the freedom of assembly of all those who are arriving to Gothenburg. From Finland there are still several other busses coming to Gothenburg.
Earlier Ya Basta - Helsinki and some other groups have informed openly, that they will organise nonviolent civil disobedience wearing WHITE OVERALLS in order to make the invisible people's silenced voices heard. This action will take place on Friday, 15th of June (J15).

Where documentary evidence is admissible it is usually necessary to tender the original document in evidence. At common law, a copy of a document is generally not admissible unless the original is proved to have been lost or destroyed. However, a copy of a document may be tendered under one of three exceptions to the Evidence Act 1906 (WA): ss 73B-73D.
In 1980, the Australian Law Reform Commission (ALRC) was in the process of carrying out a general review of the law of evidence in federal courts and territories, including a review of the law relating to the admissibility of reproductions. The Commission and the ALRC agreed to cooperate and exchange information about reproductions on an informal basis.
In 1971, the Committee was asked to consider and report on whether and in what circumstances 'reproductions' (such as photocopies and microfilm) of existing documents should be admitted into evidence, and the methods by which reproductions can be produced. This reference required a review of the provisions of the Evidence Act 1906 (WA) governing the admissibility in evidence of reproductions.
As the Australian Law Reform Commission (ALRC) had received a comprehensive reference on evidence in federal and territory courts, the Commission decided that further work on this project would be an unnecessary duplication. The reference was withdrawn in 1983. The Commission undertook to examine this aspect of the ALRC's final report when it was submitted. (For comments, see Project No. 95: paras 20.13–20.15, 35.1–35.3, 35.11–35.12).


Typically, South Asian filmmakers have been loath to tackle the issue of homosexuality, but not novice director Shamim Sarif.
Both of her new feature films – The World Unseen, which opened Nov. 7, and I Can't Think Straight, which opens Friday – tackle the subject, which is still largely taboo in the South Asian community.
In an interview at the Sutton Place hotel, however, Sarif stresses the lesbian theme is not central to either film.
"I wanted to make it not important in a sense and that's key for both these movies. With I Can't Think Straight, it's more obviously a romantic comedy that must end with the two women together to have that satisfying arc. I wanted it to be just a love story, the way I would enjoy going to My Best Friend's Wedding or My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
"Because I happen to be gay doesn't mean I can't root for people to be together. It's great to have a love story between two women ... but it's not the raison d'être of these two movies. It could just as easily be a man and a woman," says the U.K.-based Sarif.
"The message is that you can make change in your life. You can look at the way you're brought up, your family, your society, your traditions and keep what's good and take away what's bad, what stops your questioning, because I think when human beings stop questioning, they die."
Lisa Ray, whose last big onscreen splash was in Deepa Mehta's Water, plays the lead in both films. Sarif had auditioned other actors who were concerned about playing a gay woman.
"So that wasn't going to work, but with Lisa and Sheetal (Seth, the other lead actor in both films) that's just not a conversation we ever had.... They just saw it as a great role. To be honest this is the first time we've ever discussed it," says Sarif.
Adds the bubbly Ray, "I'm very cool with people's sexuality either way. It's not an issue for me. When I assess a project it's purely on a gut level. It has to be a challenge for me as an actor. I look for strong female roles that are both entertaining and provoke discussion.
"It has to also be a great story. The director is very, very important to me. Creatively, Shamim and I just immediately got each other. She gave me a lot of freedom."
Through her roles, Ray strives to push boundaries and defy conventions.
"If it has a chance of opening a crack in myself or someone who watches it I want to be part of it. Look, I'm an actor not an activist, but if through my work I can help support views that coincide with my own in terms of personal expression, personal freedom, personal growth, I'm blessed to be able to do this. Cinema is a powerful tool."
These movies have made Sarif something of a hero for gay South Asians struggling with their identity.
"I already get a lot of emails from people who are feeling emboldened by the films. What can you do except be humbled by it because that's why you make movies? If it can help people look at things more compassionately, that's great," she says.
Based on Sarif's critically acclaimed novel with the same title, The World Unseen is set in the 1950s when apartheid was just beginning in South Africa. The story revolves around two South Asian women, one married, one single, who discover their unexpected attraction for each other.
I Can't Think Straight is a modern love story about the cultural and familial complications for a British Indian woman and a London-based Palestinian woman who fall in love. Coming out to their families is a five-minute scene in the movie but rarely is it that simple in real life, says Sarif, reflecting on her own experience.
"My dad was quite practical about it. He said you're old enough to know what you want to do. My mom had a harder time because she was more concerned with what people's perceptions would be. Since then she's come around and she's absolutely fine, but it was a process of years."
Both of the movies are all-female projects; even the financiers are female.
"The first day I walked onto the set I was completely green. I had never been on a set before. I had no idea. It was really a baptism by fire. But I was lucky to be working with consummate professional actors. It was the most fun, traumatic fun, I've ever had," says Sarif.
Sarif is so impressed with Ray that she is casting her in her next movie, a heterosexual love story, as well as developing a superhero character for her in another film project.
"We have a lifelong picture deal," chuckles Ray, who divides her time between Mumbai, London and Toronto, where her family lives.
"It's going to get cold soon so I have to leave Toronto. Love the city, don't love the weather."


Black represents darkness and lack of illumination or understanding (confusion).
When a person is in darkness, he is either sleeping or in complete confusion of things around him. He does not understand why all the happenings. He is confused by all the calamities, sufferings, disasters and destruction around.
God cursed the people for forsaking Him by their extreme wickedness. These disasters will wake them up so that they will realise their wickedness. Thus, He sent confusion amongst them. The labour of the hands became unproductive.
The balance or scale always reflect fairness, partiality and justice.
A denarius is a day's pay ( Matt 20 ). Wheat is the cheapest and most common cereal, thus a day's pay ( possibly US$2/- ) is not sufficient for a family's livihood.
Barley is more expensive. Thus, there are people whose daily pay is excessive that food is only a small fraction of income.
This clearly states that there will be a time when the income of the poor is so low that they are living below the poverty line but the rich will become very rich. This is beyond the comprehension of many. The rich are no longer the millionaires but billionaires and super billionaires.
The Asian financial crisis in 1997, hit very hard on all Asian countries and also the African and some South American nations. Israel (oil) USA, Australia, and the European countries (wine), were not hurt by the downturn. In fact, these countries became richer and richer, whereby the affected nations were becoming poorer.
After the Asian financial crisis, the daily wage of a labourer average a few dollars and hardly sufficient for their livelihood (a quart of wheat). However, the rich only need to use a fraction of his daily wage for their livelihood ( 3 quarts of barley). This inbalance is getting worse and worse and by 2001 AD, the rich were the multi-millionaires and they are now (2007AD) the billionaires. This gap between the poor and the rich will continue to widen until World War 3.
So the 3rd. Seal was opened since 1997AD, and by 2007AD the income gap between the billionaires and the poor is so unbelievable that it is a big shame.

Q: How to show two radio button next to each other in html? I have my html form like this as shown in this jsfiddle.
If you click PROCESS button then it will show you a form which has two radio button. And they all are coming vertically for now, meaning female radio button is coming just below male radio button.
And I am trying to make them in one line - meaning Male radio button and then next to male, I need Female radio button, everything horizontal. But somehow it's not working for me.
But the same example here in w3schools works fine.
I would like to use the same design which I am using currently. Is there anything wrong I am doing here in my above jsfiddle?

A: Change form input, form button#submit { to #submit {
jsFiddle example
Your display:block rule is being applied to all input elements and you don't want to include the radio inputs there.

A: You'd use:
form input[type="radio"] {
  display: inline-block;
}

As currently you were displaying it as a block-line element instead (along with the submit), hence why it was appearing below.
jsFiddle here.

A:  form button#submit
{
display: inline;
margin: 4px;
 }

change the style to above.

Home Audience Developers SPA JS: Building Cross-Platform SPAs with Less Code
SPA JS: Building Cross-Platform SPAs with Less Code
SPA JS is a single page application that is simplified and developed using JavaScript. It is used to create a cross-platform application using which you can develop a Web app, and the same code can also be used to develop desktop apps. If the code is bundled with the Electron software, then the result would be a desktop app, and if you put the code under a Cordova stack, then you would get Android or iOS applications. So, you can use the same code of SPA JS to develop applications for the desktop as well as the mobile.
The primary aim of SPA JS is to keep development simple and eradicate repetitions. It also follows the crucial principle, YAGNI (You Ain't Gonna Need It), which states that you should "Always implement things only when you need them but never when you just think that you may need them." For example, in open source software, contributors may develop different modules by assuming that you may need them. However, these modules may not be useful at all.
Why SPA JS?
Many of you may be familiar with Angular, React and the Vue.js framework but very few may be aware about frameworks like Knockout, Ember and Backbone. It's not that Angular, React, etc, are really game changers. We already had the concept of building a single page application using these frameworks. So, let us examine the problem with Angular, React or Vue.js, as well as other programming options.
Problem 1: The question is why do we have different frameworks? This is because developers try to build some applications on one of these frameworks, but the latter do not solve their particular problem in the way they want to. So, developers try to create their own frameworks that solve their individual problem, but this leads to a lot of frameworks.
Problem 2: Earlier, we had frontend designers and backend developers. The former designed the page, while the latter used programming languages like C, C++, Java and .NET to build a page and call APIs. JavaScript was then introduced to use as frontends for micro-interactions, but frontend designers faced difficulties designing pages with it. To address this situation, backend developers were brought to the frontend. But unfortunately, backend developers are generally not good in design.
So, companies and developers are facing the issue of how to create a perfect bridge between the frontend and backend. Recently, the term 'full-stack developer' has emerged, describing those who know all the backend development, including databases. However, the full-stack developer doesn't know all the developments related to every platform or framework, and that's the current problem being faced.
Problem 3: Earlier, developers used to do programming in BASIC or FORTRAN. For them, the Web was just CGI or Perl. They used to dump all the code in a particular Perl file including HTML, Perl scripts, etc, but it used to be a nightmare to manage this. Then developers started using Java, but even Java servlets were painful. They wrote HTML code under double quotes, which was a horrendous task for HTML developers. So, they needed a separation, like the MVC framework. But after the launch of JSP, which is similar to HTML with the integration of simple JS, developers are now using JSP with a lot of JavaScript and less HTML, leading to complexity of the code. The problem is that developers seem to be mixing JS, HTML and even CSS, making things even more complex.
The first law of software quality is e=mc² (errors=(more code)²). This implies that the more the code, the more the errors. Just take an example of Angular or React. The seed project that we download with one package json, with one or two files like index.html, does not allow us to start our project. We now need to do a npm install, which downloads approximately 120MB of code. And all this needs to be done even if you need to just demonstrate 'Hello World'.
We think that we are writing less code but, unfortunately, we are not — it is more likely we are writing less code as someone else has already written it, and we have installed it along with our seed project.
Steve Jobs explained the problem like this, "The way you get programmer productivity is not by increasing the lines of code per programming per day. That doesn't work. The way you get programmer productivity is by eliminating the lines of code that you have to write. The goal here is to eliminate 80 per cent of the code that you have to write for your app. That's the goal. I've seen a lot of demos that try to take it all the way back into the algorithmic part of the code base, and none of them have ever been any good." So, the less the code, the fewer the errors, and the higher the productivity.
Let us get back to SPA JS
To get started, visit https://spa.js.org/. The site has all that is needed to learn and use SPA JS. Also, it is on a pure MVC framework that provides flexibility to developers.
Figure 1: SPA folder structure
The structure is well organised, which helps to reduce the code complexity. Even when the developers try to mix up the code, SPA JS will not allow it. It has a clear view that is separated with three layers — one layer with pure HTML content, the second with all the controls, and the data layer (which is entirely API driven) that helps to build the perfect bridge. One of the significant problems with Angular.js is that the features keep on updating periodically, and it is challenging to teach developers these features and frameworks. SPA JS has tried to address this issue. The site also has all the guides, so developers don't need to Google for a solution.

'The world respects countries that protect their land'
Bennett addresses Jerusalem Conference: 'Battle not over Palestinian statehood, but whether there will be third Palestinian state.'
Tags: Jerusalem Conference Naftali Bennett
Ido Ben Porat , Feb 13 , 2017 2:51 PM
Naftali Bennett at Jerusalem Conference
Yisrael Bradogo
Education Minister Naftali Bennett (Jewish Home) spoke at the 14th annual Jerusalem Conference on Monday, hosted by the Besheva magazine, addressing the Prime Minister's upcoming meeting with President Donald Trump and the recent push for the extension of Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem-area towns such as Maaleh Adumim.
"The Prime Minister is about to board the plane ahead of a very important meeting with the American President," said Bennett. "Go in peace and come back in peace."
The Education Minister also ridiculed opposition Leader Isaac Herzog, who spoke earlier at the conference, over his support for Palestinian statehood in Judea and Samaria.
"There are millions of 'refugees' across the Arab world," said Bennett. "Not really refugees, but the descendants of refugees, who are the only ones in the world who get to 'inherit' refugee status. By one foolish stroke we are liable to bring in millions. The Jewish majority that it took the Zionists a century to create between the Jordan and the sea will be lost in an instant.
"What do you think, that these refugees will stop at Shechem? In Jenin. No! They will continue onward, to Jaffa [in Tel Aviv], to Akko [Acre]. Anyone who wants a two-state solution effectively is calling for the transformation of Israel into a state that is neither Jewish nor democratic.
"There are those who tell us to give up Judea and Samaria because there is war in the world between the Iranians and the Saudis. I have a question: Is somebody doing us a favor by fighting with us against Iran? The world loves strong countries. They tell us if we give up [Judea and Samaria], they will see how nice we are and our international position will improve. But the facts are precisely the opposite. It was after we retreated from the Gaza Strip that our international standing suffering the most.
"The world respects a country that protects its land! We need to say that everywhere, to every Christian and Muslim in Europe and to every Jew in Israel and in the world. The Land of Israel is ours. Period."

About the State Equity Report Card
The State Equity Report Card, part of The State of Higher Education Equity project from The Education Trust, is a web tool that assesses states' commitment to equitable college opportunity and success for Black Americans and Latinos. It contains state-level information on who has a college degree, who enrolls in college, and who graduates. This tool can be used to learn about a single state or to compare performance across states. Our hope is that by shining a spotlight on higher education inequity, state officials will be motivated to take action to ensure all their residents have a fair shot at earning a college degree.
This website displays data from publicly available sources that are featured in the reports linked below. You can either download the reports or visit each report's landing page (edtrust.org) for more details on how we crunched the numbers, what we found, and what we think policy makers should do about it.
Degree Attainment for Black Adults: National and State Trends
Degree Attainment for Latino Adults: National and State Trends
Broken Mirrors: Black Undergraduate Representation at Public State Colleges and Universities
Broken Mirrors II: Latino Undergraduate Representation at Public State Colleges and Universities
How Affordable are Public Colleges in Your State for Low-income Students?
The data for our college affordability report will be uploaded in the web tool soon.
Who has a college degree?
The data examining who has a college degree is called "degree attainment." Degree attainment examines the percentage of adults in each state that have earned an associate, bachelor's, or graduate degree. The State Equity Report Card includes 2016 degree attainment rates for Black and Latino residents and changes in Black and Latino degree attainment since 2000.
Who enrolls in college?
As part of our Broken Mirrors reports, we examine Black and Latino "enrollment representation" in public higher education. These data focus on each state's public colleges and universities and communicate how well the percentage of Black and Latino students at these colleges reflects the percentage of Black and Latino residents in that state. These data are provided separately for both a) public four-year institutions and b) community and technical colleges. In addition, we also examine how opportunities to enroll at selective, public institutions in each state differ by race and ethnicity. The enrollment data are for fall 2016.
Who graduates from college?
Also featured in the Broken Mirrors reports, we examine Black and Latino "degree earner representation." These data focus on each state's public colleges and universities and communicate how well the percentage of Black and Latino degree associate and bachelor's degree earners from these colleges mirror the percentage of Black and Latino residents in that state. The State Equity Report Card also compares how the share of Black and Latino graduates who earn a bachelor's degree compared to White graduates. Degree earner data are for 2016.
How affordable are public colleges?
As part of our State Equity Report Card, we examine how "affordable" public college is for students from low-income backgrounds. We look closely at just how much beyond their means students from low-income backgrounds are being asked to pay for a college degree at both public four-year institutions and community and technical colleges in each state. We use net price to determine affordability. Net price is the average amount that in-state students from low-income backgrounds pay to attend public institutions, after subtracting grants and scholarships from the cost of attendance. Affordability data are for 2017.

Q: Maven rebuild failure of tests, build does not complete I have a large project that I am working on. I recently checked out our evolution branch, did a git pull and tried to deploy the app locally.  It doesn't seem to recognize some libraries or jars in one Java class, so subsequently errors halt me from running. Basically, the import statements go unrecognized in the class.
Turns out I forgot to rebuild maven. When I ran mvn clean install from the command prompt, the build fails (even when I do mvn clean install -fn) as there are tests that fail.  I don't often work with maven, or the command line, but here is my full stack trace when I run mvn clean install -e:
I'm running my project in the IntelliJ environment.
When I ran mvn clean install -fn, 'talent-app' was successful, but talent-core still failed and I still got
[INFO] BUILD FAILURE

Please let me know if you have any input, I appreciate it!

A: I'm not sure I understand your question correctly.
Basically, regarding your first paragraph, you said you had library issues but that after a clean rebuild - of your project, I suppose not of Maven itself - everything is fine?
Regarding the rest of your post, your build is failing because of a failing test case. This is shown by the line:
talent-core ............................... FAILURE

and by the output:
Failed to execute goal [...]. There are test failures.

If you go into the target/surefire-reports folder, you will find some files containing the output and error traces of each test, including the one that failed.
By scrolling up in your terminal, you should also be able to see which test was failing for talent-core.
From then on, by order of preference:

*

*either look at the test reports as mentioned in the output, and attempt to figure our why the test is failing, and either fix the test or the code;

*or skip the tests, you can add -DskipTests to the command-line. But you shouldn't skip your tests, really.

Rodig; Quantitative Assessment of PD-L1 Expression in Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma Suggests a Critical Role for Tumor Associated Macrophages in Suppressing Anti-Tumor Immunity. Blood 2015; 126 (23): 1440. doi: https://doi.org/10.1182/blood.V126.23.1440.1440
BACKGROUND: The programmed cell death-1 ligands (PD-Ls; PD-L1 and PD-L2) act as negative regulators of anti-tumor immunity by binding their cognate receptor, PD-1, on cytotoxic T-cells and inducing T-cell "exhaustion", a phenotype that is reversible with PD-1 blockade. Human antibodies that block PD-1 induce objective clinical responses in the majority of patients with relapsed / refractory classical Hodgkin Lymphoma (CHL).
CHLs include small numbers of malignant Hodgkin Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells (~5% of total cellularity) within an extensive but ineffective inflammatory and immune cell infiltrate. Over 85% of CHLs express PD-Ls on both the HRS cells and additional non-malignant cells within the tumor microenvironment (Chen et al., CCR 2010). PD-L expression in HRS cells is attributable, in part, to copy gain of chromosome 9p24.1, a region that includes PD-L1, PD-L2, and JAK2 (Green et al., Blood, 2010). However, the contribution of non-malignant cells to the overall PD-L expression within the tumor micro-environment of CHL is poorly defined.
METHODS: We analyzed select CHLs (12 EBV+, 8 EBV-) by multiplex immunofluorescence using formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded tissue sections, with successive labeling by primary antibodies (PD-L1, CD30, CD68, pSTAT3, CD163), followed by secondary amplification and tyramide-conjugated fluorophores. For each case 2 large representative areas of tissue, totaling eight 20x fields of view were selected and imaged using a multispectral imaging platform. Two specific image analysis algorithms were designed to accurately identify CD30+ HRS cells and CD68+ macrophages simultaneously, then to threshold PD-L1 by relative fluorescent units (RFU) in each phenotype. Cartesian coordinates for all cells were exported and distance calculations were generated between PD-L1+ and PD-L1- macrophages and their Ônearest neighborÕ CD30+ PD-L1+ HRS cell.
RESULTS: The percentages of CD30+ HRS cells and CD68+ macrophages expressing PD-L1 was highly variable across cases (range 9 - 94%, median 46.6% for HRS cells; range 6 - 91.3%, median 48.2% for macrophages). In all cases the majority of PD-L1 protein within the tumor micro-environment was contributed by macrophages (median 77.9%, range 50.4 - 98.5%), although the mean relative intensity of PD-L1 per cell was higher for HRS cells than for macrophages (3.13 +/-0.02 RFU vs 2.85 +/- 0.01 RFU; p < 0.0001 by Welch t-test). Further analysis revealed that the percentage of HRS cells and macrophages expressing PD-L1 was highly correlated (Pearson r = 0.67; 95% CI 0.32 - 0.85; p=0.001) and, in 18/20 tumors, PD-L1+ macrophages were in greater proximity to PD-L1+ HRS cells than PD-L1- macrophages (across 20 cases mean distance of 32.6 µm (SE 5 µm) versus 51.2 µm (SE 6.8 µm), respectively; p < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: CD68+ tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) express the majority of PD-L1 in CHLs, which contain rare tumor cells. Image analysis of the distribution of PD-L1 in the tumor microenvironment indicates that PD-L1+ TAMs are significantly enriched in proximity to PD-L1+ HRS cells. These data implicate HRS cells in coordinating PD-L1 induction among TAMs to limit anti-tumor immunity.

Q: Проверка совместимости приложения с версиями Android Есть ли какой-нибудь сервис для проверки совместимости приложения с различными версиями Android?
У меня нет аккаунта разработчика в Google Play
A: Вас интересует проверка работоспособности именно на различных версиях Android или же на различных устройствах различных производителей?
Если первое, то с этим вполне успешно справляется тот же LINT, входящий в состав SDK.
Если же второе, то существует уже немалое число сервисов, готовых предоставить вам готовую ферму разнообразных девайсов от большинства известных производителей для автоматического тестирования вашего приложения. Первое, что вспомнилось:

*

*AppThwack

*DeviceAnywhere

*TestDroid

A: Добавьте все версии андроид в AVD и тестируйте вручную, если вам это нужно. Ну, или виртуальная машина + Android x86 разных версий. Алгоритм тот же, всё руками. Или как товарищ выше говорил - пользуйтесь уже существующими сервисами для тестирования.

According to the report, the drugs in Woods' system were:
Hydrocodone, the generic form of a painkiller branded as Vicodin.
Hydromorphone, a strong painkiller commonly known as Dilaudid.
Alprazolam, a mood and sleep drug commonly known as Xanax. (The report also listed Alpha-Hydroxy Alprazolam, which is what Xanax becomes when it breaks down in the system.)
Zolpidem, a sleep drug commonly known as Ambien.
Delta-9 carboxy THC, the active ingredient in marijuana.

Supremely disgusted. A despicable act...but then there's the part about him cutting himself too? Josh definitely has a history of being a dick to people, both on and off stage (there's video of him shoving a guy off the stage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOJqK5C_1t4). He's got the classic redhead temper. But I think it's safe to say at this juncture that he's got some bigger issues and demons to wrestle. It's no secret he likes to use substances. I don't know if that's the issue, but I wouldn't be surprised.
To be honest, I think he's been struggling for a while to keep some footing. The "Like Clockwork" LP to me is the story of a guy who peered into the abyss and nearly fell in, but pulled back and tried to find himself again. "Villains" feels like someone who doesn't give a damn. There are references to things like pills and suicide. When he says stuff like "Life is hard, that's why no one survives" and "Yeah, I'm letting go" I don't think that's just by chance. There's a lot of dark thoughts on that record. Maybe I'm psychoanalyzing too much, but that show at the Anthem felt like a band trying to say "yeah! we're having a great time!" but it felt like when I was watching my uncle fall off the deep end after his second marriage and hit the bottle. He was taking comfort in escape, but nothing about it was fun, cool or enjoyable for the people watching. Queens shows used to feel pretty damn good. But I couldn't help but pick up on the fact that this time it was a total facade.
StoneTheCrow
Wow. Great comments about the show. I thought it was ok...but far and away the worst Queens show I've ever seen.
And I think he knows he's done screwed up this time. Cause he definitely has.
Quote from: StoneTheCrow on December 12, 2017, 08:36:21 pm
When you see concerts over the course of 27 years, you start picking up on stuff. In 1993, Smashing Pumpkins put on one hell of a show in Chicago (see the bonus DVD for the reissue of "Siamese Dream"...I was there) and I thought they were a better live band than Nirvana. Then I saw them in 1995 and you could sense things were dramatically different. That was the night before Melvoin and Chamberlin OD'ed in NY. I've been seeing QOTSA since 1999, so over the course of 18 years you can see the evolution and appreciate the highs and lows (pun intended) Josh has gone through. That tour with Iggy Pop last year was so great, which is why this year my thought was "what the hell happened to Josh?". I wonder if he's shouldering a lot of trauma after what happened to Eagles of Death Metal in Paris. Sometimes the people who want to project the toughest facade and are dicks are also the ones who feel things the most, but they hide behind a macho image. But when you listen to the song "Fortress", you almost wonder if he's referring to himself. Again, maybe I'm psycho-analyzing too much...my gut says I'm not. Substance abuse can make you feel invincible when you're not. And it's probably not a good sign when you're doing vicodin on stage.
Oh, and the first time I ever went backstage at a show I learned something pretty powerful. I was at a Pere Ubu show, I was 17, and I watched David Thomas have a nervous breakdown in his tour manager's arms. Just because you're let into the inner sanctum doesn't mean you belong there. A lot of these musicians types are tortured geniuses for a reason. They've got a lot of problems. It would be great if more of them got the help they needed and had easier access to health care and therapy. Watching people like Chris Cornell lose their battle is incredibly sad. You can have money, success and a manager looking out for you and still fall apart.

A bright burst of X-rays captured by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory in a galaxy located 6.6 billion light years from Earth likely signaled the merger of two neutron stars into a new, heavier and freakishly magnetic neutron star - known as a magnetar - and offered astronomers a rare glimpse into how neutron stars are made. The team's findings were published in the April 11 issue of the journal Nature.
With the observation of a bright burst of X-rays, astronomers have found another signal, one that validates predictions first made in 2013 by UNLV astrophysicist Bing Zhang, a member of the research team and one of the study's corresponding authors.
"We can't throw neutron stars together in a lab to see what happens, so we have to wait until the universe does it for us," said Zhang.
"This discovery confirms that at least some of these mergers will make die-hard massive neutron stars that can survive an extended period of time," said Zhang. "If two neutron stars can collide and a heavy neutron star survives, then this also tells us that their structure is relatively stiff and resilient."
Chandra observed XT2 in March 2015 as it suddenly appeared and then faded away within hours. Researchers say it's possible the magnetar lost energy through an X-ray-emitting wind, slowing down its rate of spin as the source faded. The amount of X-ray emission stayed roughly constant for about 30 minutes, then its brightness gradually decreased before becoming undetectable.
"The serendipitous discovery of XT2 makes another strong case that nature's fecundity repeatedly transcends human imagination," said co-author Niel Brandt of the Pennsylvania State University and principal investigator of the relevant Chandra Deep Field-South.
The source is in the outskirts of its host galaxy, which aligns with the idea that supernova explosions that left behind the neutron stars kicked them there a few billion years earlier. The galaxy itself also has certain properties - including a low rate of star formation compared to other galaxies of a similar mass - that are much more consistent with the type of galaxy where the merger of two neutron stars is expected to occur.
"The host-galaxy properties of XT2 indeed boost our confidence in explaining its origin," said co-author Ye Li, a postdoctoral fellow at Peking University and former UNLV Ph.D. student.
Armed with new insight, the research team is now reviewing Chandra data for similar sources. "Just as with this source, the data sitting in archives might contain some unexpected treasures," said co-author Xuechen Zheng, also of the University of Science and Technology of China.
"A magnetar-powered X-ray transient as aftermath of a binary neutron star merger" appears in the April 11, 2019 issue of Nature. NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, manages the Chandra program for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Massachusetts, controls Chandra's science and flight operations.


I'm just starting to get my feet wet in using MOE. I'm following the tutorials in https://doc.multi-os-engine.org/multi-os-engine/7_creating_db_app/1_part1/part1.html, but I can't seem to generate bindings at all.
When I right click on the .h file in Android Studio, the MOE Actions context menu is greyed out. It's also greyed out for any file that I right click on.
How do I generate bindings in this case?
and on moe 1.3. (beta version) its changed every thing!
Small step…who are we kidding? This is a huge leap!
Yes the guide is old. But why is the context menu greyed out?
But my context menu is greyed out. How do I get it to be active?
I finally managed to figure out how to get the context menu to be active.
I successfully generated an AppViewController.
However, I can't get it to generate it again after getting it to do it once, even though I've deleted the nbc file.
Is there any documentation on how to generate bindings?
When you open the NBC file in your IDE, there should be an icon with a gear on it. Clicking on that should reveal the menu to launch the generation process.
Please make sure that you use the latest plugin version (beta-2).
Sorry for asking so many questsions. I'm still trying to feel my way around here.
1 - The plugin that I'm using has been compiled from the source repo. Is that newer than beta-2?
2 - After lots of trial and error, it seems that I need to have .nbc file in the ios module. However, if the file is inside that folder, I can't test or generate any bindings.
This is rather confusing for me, because I can run set up an iOS run configuration and it works fine.
Also, I have MOE_HOME set up in my .bash_profile, but I'm uncertain if it's the right path. I have it set to ~/.moe/moe-sdk-1.3.0.
I've also used launchctl to setenv for MOE_HOME, but Android Studio is still reporting the same error.
Are you install moe sdk from repository ?
If you are using android studio you can add every things from plugin and most of the jobs will handled automatically!
No, it should be the same as beta 2 (you can check the moe-1.3.0-beta-2 tag in git).
When you compile MOE from source, you still need to install the built SDK. There are multiple different options supported, and documented here. Which option are you trying to follow?
The MOE_HOME env var is no longer used by MOE, the messages that still mention it should be cleaned up.
But no files are output, which I guess it's expected since the file is not in the ios directory.
And I also have it present in ~/.moe/moe-sdk* (downloaded by the plugin I guess).
This is still weird, it looks like as if the IDE plugin could not determine the path of your SDK for some reason. This issue should go away in the next release, because then the editor will use Gradle in the background to generate the bindings.
Still, there might be a corner case that we don't expect: can you provide us with a test project that we can use to reproduce this issue?
Here's a link to the project. It was too big to upload to here.
I created a bindings.nbc file in ios. The contents aren't correct, but it should be irrelevant since Android Studio could never invoke the tool required to generate the binding.
I am experiencing the same problem with the context menu. It was working and now it is grey-out. Can you tell me, how did you fix the problem?
I am experiencing the same problem as Angel did, but when i click on the NBC file, the gear icon is also grey-out. Everything was working properly until a few days ago. I'm using the latest sdk and IntelliJ plugin.
The unofficial ItelliJ plugin 1.4.1-C by @Noisyfox fixed this!

@potato, I am PMing you a modified version of the addon.
Please test it out and let me know if it does what you require (I'll commit it to GitHub after that).
thanks so much - tested and working - I can now see the dimensions as the image is being cropped!
and upload an image smaller then 1920px wide, the uploaded version remains its original size.
If i upload a larger image it resizes it to 1920px wide.
and upload a narrower image it resizes it up.
If it is, any ideas on how to change it to match that for image?
JCropThumb ignores the 'enforce_max' directive and always tries to create a thumbnail of the specified dimension.
So, your observation matches its expected behaviour.
@KK thanks for the info.
I need the jcropthumb flexibility, so i'll probably have a look at the code to see if i can mod it.
I've created a modified version of jcropthumb.php with enforce_max parameter enabled.
I've also modified it to call ajax-im.php which is a rewrite of the original ajax.php but using imageMagick instead of GD.
I'm using the mods with timthumb-im.php https://www.couchcms.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=7222#p9837.

Roland Intros JX-08 & JD-08 Sound Modules
New additions to the Roland Boutique lineup 09/11/21
Roland has announced the JX-08 and JD-08 Sound Modules, the latest additions to the Roland Boutique lineup of compact electronic instruments. A spokesperson told us, "The JX-08 offers a scaled-down recreation of the JX-8P, one of the last analog synthesizers produced by Roland in the 1980s and a highly sought-after piece for vintage synth fans. The JD-08 is a compact reproduction of Roland's JD-800 synthesizer, an influential digital instrument from the early 1990s loved for its complex, gleaming sound and comprehensive hands-on control."
NOTE: Voice count has been confirmed: JX-08 - 20 Voices, JD-08 - 128 voices (actual polyphony may vary depending on complexity of patch and number of Tones used per voice)
Here's more details direct from Roland...
In 1985, Roland's innovative JX-8P took hybrid keyboard design to the next level, fusing analog synthesis with precision digital control. Top session players instantly embraced its compelling new voice, forever embedding the instrument's warm pads, shimmery chorus, and crystalline textures into the most popular songs of the era. The JX-08 reintroduces the unique sounds of the JX-8P in stunning detail, coupled with powerful new effects, a polyphonic sequencer, and more.
The JX-08 features expanded polyphony, two-part multitimbral capability, and dual/split modes. It also includes 32 presets from the original hardware and 100-plus new patches tuned for contemporary styles. And to enhance the creative workflow, there's a full panel of hands-on controls derived from the companion PG-800 programmer unit for the original hardware. After crafting sounds, users can store their creations in 256 preset slots for easy recall.
By the early 1990s, preset-driven digital synths with limited tactile controls dominated the landscape. The JD-800 changed all that in 1991, bringing the synthesizer world back to its roots with a control-laden panel and an aggressively electronic sound palette. Combining the original JD-800 waveforms with advanced modeling techniques, the JD-08 delivers the exquisite hands-on sound design of the original, along with hugely expanded polyphony, a two-part polyphonic sequencer, and other modern updates.
The JD-08 includes 64 presets from the original hardware and perfectly recreates the four-tone structure, 108 waveforms, and unique two-part multi-effects behind the JD-800's intricate, evolving sound. It also features a miniature version of the well-stocked JD-800 control panel, giving users an inspiring selection of sliders, buttons, and knobs for on-the-spot sound manipulation.
The JX-08 and JD-08 feature a built-in USB-C audio/MIDI interface for working with computer production software, along with full-size MIDI I/O for connecting with other MIDI hardware. An external clock input is also available on each unit, allowing users to drive the onboard sequencer and arpeggiator from vintage analog instruments and modern Eurorack systems.
Like all Roland Boutique modules, the JX-08 and JD-08 are highly portable and can run on USB bus power or batteries. Each module also includes a built-in speaker for mobile sound monitoring. And when mounted in an optional K-25m Keyboard Unit, the JX-08 or JD-08 can be used as a compact, all-in-one synth with 25 velocity-sensitive keys.
The JX-08 and JD-08 Sound Modules will be available in the U.S. in January 2022 for $399.99 each.
