Ashok Group was the beginning of a great legacy, which began way back in 1986, when Ashok Laboratory was set up on 2nd June 1986 at Jodhpur Park by Dr. (Mrs.) Ratnamala Ray, Ph.D (Biochemistry). Dr. Ray is the daughter of Late Ashok Kumar Sen, the founder member of M/s East India Pharmaceutical Works Ltd. Under her able stewardship Ashok Laboratory which started as a small diagnostic centre, 25 years ago, has slowly transformed itself into one of the leading diagnostic centres in Kolkata. It is the first laboratory in Eastern India to get NABL accreditation as per ISO/IEC 15189:2003 guidelines.
Dr.Ratnamala Ray was joined by her daughter Dr. Parbati Banerjee (Ray) who also happens to be Ph.D in Medical Biochemistry and together they have attained great success in this medical field. Both mother and daughter also happen to be the trustees of a public charitable trust which runs a Blood Bank under the name & style of Ashok Laboratory - Centre for Transfusion Medicine & Clinical Research at Jodhpur Park .The Laboratory handles nearly 300 pathological cases per day and over 50 imaging cases daily and provides employment to over 100 persons.
In 2006 Dr. Abhijit Banerjee, a renowned Pathologist joined the group as the third partner that concretised the foundation of the laboratory.
The journey of Ashok group surpassed another milestone in January 2007 when it entered into a Private Public Partnership with Government of West Bengal. Under this scheme, Ashok Laboratory is to start diagnostic facilities at three rural hospitals of Sonarpur, Nimpith in South 24 Parganas, in the space provided by the Government at the hospital sites. The Sonarpur unit under 'PPP' scheme had already started functioning and is doing extremely well and the others started slow but with a steady growth. The quality of services that they are rendering to the poor rural population of West Bengal is unparalleled in the history of this state and the Government is also planning to give them the Baruipur sub-divisional hospital under this scheme.
Buoyed up by the success of their medical diagnostic unit, goodwill of their blood bank and good wishes of all the doctors and patients Dr. Ratnamala Roy, Dr. Parbati Banerjee and Dr. Abhijit Banerjee have moved ahead with their latest venture of constructing and running a nursing home unit.
The promoters have acquired a plot of land at 1/402, Jodhpur Park, Kolkata – 700 068, with a plan to set up a multi-facility nursing home that would provide all modern state-of-art facilities. The said would be a 35 bedded Nursing Home with ICU, OPD with all departments like Surgery, Gynaecology etc. The 2 operation theatres will have all modern equipments so that all major operations can be performed.

The world has gone digital and automation has become a critical success factor. Across all industries, enterprises leverage Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to automate business processes such as insurance claims processing, invoice processing, employee onboarding, support center, account reconciliation, patient outreach and many others.
The world has gone digital and automation has become a critical success factor. Across all industries, enterprises leverage Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to automate business processes such as insurance claims processing, invoice processing, employee onboarding, support center, account reconciliation, patient outreach and many others. These automated services allow companies to offer their users 24x7 experience with unprecedented levels of accuracy and reliability.
To keep up with the business and customer needs, automation must continue to evolve to include a new class of products that "reason and learn ". A new era of digital transformation is led by a Digital Workforce that combines Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cognitive automation, mixed with the right amount of human interaction. This next generation of automation addresses specific challenges in each vertical and industry.
Data Synthesis: Today, data comes from multiple sources and in structured or unstructured formats. Using AI to extract critical data and feeding it to RPA is a critical step in this process to ensure a smooth flow of accurate information.
Understanding Context: An important step in a full cycle automation is to understand the right instructions or intent. The process of applying cognition here is to assist RPA in determining the right next steps based on what a user is trying to accomplish. Leveraging NLP to "read" and "understand" information in an email can help with the routing or process selection.
Predictive Modeling: Apart from extracting data and understanding intent, AI can be extended to make predictions and outcomes. Using machine learning (ML) at the right time during process automation allows decision modeling to recommend the best course of actions. Banks, for example, can use ML models to predict the occurrence of fraud.
According to IDC, the worldwide spend for cognitive/Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems will exceed $57 billion at a compound annual growth rate of 50.1% through 2021. As the implementation of AI and cognitive automation continues to grow, business must determine how to apply cognitive automation to improve adoption and yield ROI.
Read our upcoming blogs to explore how this new breed of the intelligent Digital Workforce is impacting industries and learn how you can be at the forefront of true digital business transformation.

One thing I say frequently to my students is this: "One big reason we work on technique is so we can sing when sick." I like to regale my students with the story about the time I sang an hour- long recital with pneumonia. Smart? No! But I survived, through sheer force of will and a foundation of good technique. This post discusses many preventative measures you can take so you can avoid becoming ill and what to do when you find yourself ill during the days leading to an audition.
The number one cause of vocal hoarseness or fatigue is not illness: it is the mistreatment of their singing OR speaking voice. How many of you return from the Homecoming game, your favorite band's concert, or even a lengthy rehearsal experiencing vocal fatigue? Let's talk about why this happens: When you overuse your voice, just like any other muscle group in your body, it becomes swollen. The result of swollen "cords" is two fold: First, the cords are harder to make vibrate without extra support (air flowing past them). Second, extra air escapes when you sing, since the cords no longer meet as cleanly as they did when you were at your healthiest.
Athletics and music spectators: no screaming or misuse of voice. Clap, wave your hands! Whoever you're yelling at probably wont hear you anyway.
Try to avoid clearing your throat or coughing. Try this: clap your hands together. Now do it over and over again. After a while those hands will be red, swollen, maybe even dry. It is best to clear your throat (if necessary) with a hard 'h' sound, swallowing and drinking a glass of water.
Everyone around me is sick!
Natalie enjoys walking around the choir room in the days leading up to auditions yelling "Stop touching each other!" You can't get sick if you don't come in contact with germs, so stay away from sick people! It's not *mean*: you're not a doctor and it's not your job or obligation to hang out with your sick friends. This is ONLY for their benefit and not yours, so if they're a good friend, they'll understand. Your health needs to be your number one priority. Also, please wash your hands and stop sharing food and drinks (and lip gloss) *even* with healthy people. And if you're the sick one, get thee away from other humans.
One frustrating thing we hear in the studio is " Well, I have allergies, so *shrug* ". There are MANY remedies for both the cause and the symptoms of allergies! Use them! Also, allergies normally effect people according to a season, so be observant and vigilant. Know your body, get tested, and plan ahead. Allergies are much more predictable and treatable than a head cold which can strike at any time.
Find the allergy medication that works for you. Many people find that they have to rotate every few weeks or each season, as one might lose it's effectiveness. Use your neti-pot and THEN a nasal spray.
That being said, remember that all pills are systemic: it's impossible to take something and have it only effect one small part of your body. And each medication has side effects, which you need to weigh against the greater benefit and only use what medicine you absolutely NEED. For example, if you have post-nasal drip, you don't need Claritin-D, all you need is a decongestant, such as Mucinex or a prescription guaifenisin, not an antihistamine which might make you sleepy, etc.
We also recommend you discuss with your doctor and use the following things only as a last resort and hopefully not at all *while you're singing*: Asprin, Menthol or any numbing throat sprays, and steroids.
Drinking plenty of water always helps keep your voice in top shape, but only if you hydrate consistently. I am puzzled by students chugging water immediately prior to singing or taking sips of water between warm-ups. Think of the water you drink as having it's greatest effect the next day.
Using a cool mist humidifier helps keep your vocal cords happy. A humidifier helps keep the moisture in the air and prevents your vocal cords from drying out. Steaming can also help keep the vocal cords from drying out and open up your sinuses. They even make personal steamers for when you're flying which is notoriously hard on the voice.
Do you think hot tea helps the voice? Be careful: most of these have TONS of caffeine which is a diuretic (dehydrates you). Believe it or not, a cup of black tea can have more caffeine than a cup of coffee! You'll want to avoid caffeine as this is a sure way to cancel out all of the water you have consumed. Drink herbal tea (meaning flowers or fruit) and avoid chamomile if you have allergies, some bodies mistake it for it's cousin, Ragweed.
Lemon and citrus in general can also have a mild drying effect, which might be what you're going for, depending on your symptoms (post nasal drip, for instance). We recommend honey for a soothing effect, which consumed often (a local variety) can also help with allergy symptoms.
Sometimes the best offense is a good defense! Taking a multivitamin and eating vegetables is a great way to stay healthy. While we aren't doctors and don't know for sure what will help you, we do have some favorite supplements we personally take in this situation. For extra measures in the weeks preceding an audition, I recommend Wellness Formula. When I find myself fatigued vocally I take Bromelain (pineapple extract) and/or sip pineapple juice as it acts as a natural anti-inflammatory and has been proven to be as effective as cough syrup, with the bonus of being all-natural and packed with vitamins. A combination of pineapple juice and unflavored coconut water packs a one-two punch of hydration and relief.
I have to sing tomorrow and I have no voice!
– Your voice is likely fatigued and vocal chords are inflamed, so avoid using them to avoid any more inflammation.
– Sleep is essential so your body can focus on fighting whatever is attacking it. Stay home from school if you need to and this doesn't disqualify you from auditioning.
– When you are resting your voice, you can still practice your music. Practicing your music without singing can include exercises like audiating (mouthing words without speaking/singing). You can also plan for extra breaths you may need by marking up your score with extra breaths.
Often, we find that the illness affects your mind more than your body. It's always frustrating to not sing at your best, but remember that the judges may not know you and your less than 100% may still be enough to pass the audition. Just don't let your mental frustration or anxiety about what sound might come out get in the way of all of the hard work and preparation you have done up to this point.

The car industry now: What will happen to UK car factories?
Currently reading: The car industry now: What will happen to UK car factories?
Mini's Oxford plant seems safe, but questions hover over whether Bridgend and Swindon could be closed sooner
Honda's exit from Swindon, resulting in 3500 job losses, is carefully planned to tie in with the end of the current Civic's life cycle, and the Japanese car maker has confirmed that the closure date of July 2021 remains unchanged.
Given that date is just over 12 months away, Honda will already be planning its new global manufacturing strategy, focused on quickly growing its electric vehicle line-up. It will consolidate much back to Japan to allow it to ship fairly easily to China – one of the regions where high production volumes are expected.
Meanwhile, Ford will close its Bridgend plant this September, also as planned. It's part of Ford's major restructuring in Europe after the brand failed to capitalise on the trends for SUVs and electrification. The under-utilisation of Bridgend, which makes the 5.0-litre V8 and 1.5-litre Ecoboost petrol engines, meant it was quick to get the axe.
New investment in the area is coming, however: from 2021, new company Ineos Automotive will build its Defender-inspired 4x4, the Grenadier, at a new factory in Bridgend, creating 500 jobs.
Mini bucks the trend
Oxford stands in good stead, with a line at near-full capacity, successful models being exported to more than 100 countries and the new Electric perfectly placed for the Mini brand. The Mini hatchback is the second-most-exported vehicle made in the UK.
While there are no definitive longer-term plans for Oxford, Mini says: "The BMW Group has invested more than £2bn in its UK facilities since 2000, and the company remains committed to its plants and its UK operations. The UK plays a crucial role in the BMW Group production network and is our fourth-biggest sales market worldwide."
Peter Wells, an industry expert at Cardiff University, comments: "The Mini plant is one of the safer [UK factories]: it has been working at more or less full capacity, to the point that extra product has been put elsewhere. If demand drops a little, it can manage it. Plus, Mini is so strongly associated with Oxford and there has been so much investment from BMW in that plant. And the build quality is great."

Sinusitis Condition and Symptoms
Sinusitis is a serious medical condition that afflicts an estimated 35 million Americans annually and that can cause persistent and intense congestion, headaches and nasal problems. The sinuses are hollow spaces in the skull (i.e. the frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid and maxillary) which serve to lighten the skull and give resonance to the voice. The purpose of the sinuses, which open into the nasal cavity, is to generate mucus to keep the nose from drying out during breathing and to trap unwanted materials so that they do not reach the lungs. Each sinus has an opening that allows mucus to drain. These openings are essential in keeping your sinuses functioning properly and in some cases, smaller openings or blockages cause a buildup of mucus and lead to a sinus infection.
Inflammation and swelling of the sinus tissue can lead to blockage of air passages and the beginning of sinusitis, causing rising levels of germs and fluid and a greater likelihood of infection. Sinus blockage can be traced to several different factors, including colds, a deviated septum, and nasal polyps. Sinusitis is also prominent among those with allergies and those who smoke, who suffer from immune system disorders, or who otherwise have naturally narrowed sinus ducts.
Sinusitis can take various forms that feature cold-like conditions, including acute sinusitis (often occurring for a few weeks), chronic or subacute sinus inflammation (potentially lasting 12 weeks), or recurrent sinusitis (which happens a few times annually). These types of the condition are characterized by the drainage of a thick, yellowish or greenish discharge from the nose down the back of the throat; nasal obstruction or congestion; tenderness and swelling around the eyes, cheeks, nose and forehead; and/or a reduced sense of smell and taste. Sinusitis sufferers may also experience fevers, coughs, runny or stuffed-up noses, bad breath, and fatigue. Unfortunately, many patients may misdiagnose their conditions as allergies or colds, which is why it's particularly important to see a balloon sinuplasty expert like Dr. David J. Congdon to determine the proper diagnosis.
The Cost of Sinusitis
In addition to affecting the lives of those suffering with the condition, sinusitis has a dramatic overall effect nationwide, driving up medical costs, causing missed workdays, and limiting the effectiveness of non-surgical treatments for many patients. These far-reaching effects of sinusitis include:
Approximately 14% of the adult U.S. population suffers from sinusitis, with 17% of women and 10% of men annually experiencing the condition.
Each year, seven million office visits are held to treat just chronic sinusitis (not including acute sinusitis).
More than $8 billion in direct health-care expenditures relating to sinusitis occur annually.
Sinusitis causes over 58 million in restricted activity days per year.
Unfortunately, around 60% of patients are not successfully treated with sinus medication.
Treatment Options for Sinusitis
Several treatment options for sinusitis exist, depending on the type of sinusitis you are afflicted with. For patients with acute sinusitis, saline nasal sprays, antibiotics, nasal steroid sprays, decongestants and over-the-counter pain relievers may be appropriate initial treatment steps that can provide adequate relief for less-severe cases of sinusitis. Allergy sufferers can also try to avoid the factor(s) that trigger sinusitis. However, for many patients with acute and chronic sinusitis, the most-effective remedy is balloon sinuplasty surgery, a noninvasive procedure that provides long-term relief from sinusitis.

CLAREMONT VILLAGE, the Bronx — A 24-year-old man was fatally shot in the Bronx early Friday morning, the NYPD said.
At about 12:40 a.m., police responded to a 911 call of a man shot inside of 1420 Grand Concourse, the location of an apartment building located in the Claremont Village section of the Bronx. When they arrived they found Ariel Tejada with a gunshot wound to his torso.
Tejada, who lives in the building he was found in, was transported to a hospital where he later died.
Police believe Tejada was targeted, adding he received a phone call, asking him to come outside.
Tejada's best friend Richard Baldwin, tells PIX11 he never even made it out of his front door — Tejada was stopped by a bullet, where a memorial is now growing.
There are no arrests at this time. The investigation remains ongoing.

The holy city of Haridwar is located in the north Indian state of Uttaranchal at a distance of 214 kms from Delhi.
Haridwar, literally Gateway to God, is one of the Hindu holy places in India and a center of Hindu religion and mysticism for centuries. Located on the banks of River Ganges (Ganga), at the point where the Ganges descends from the hills to the North Indian plains, Haridwar attracts a large number of Hindu pilgrims from all over the world.
Places to visit in Haridwar:
Har-ki-Pauri: Holy ghats are named after the Charan (Footprints) of Hari (God Vishnu) impressed on a stone, set into the upper wall of the ghats. Constructed by King Vikramaditya in memory of his brother Bhartrihari, it is thought that Bhartihari eventually came to Haridwar, to meditate by the banks of the holy Ganga. When he died, his brother constructed the Ghat in his name, which later came to be famous as Har-Ki-Pauri. This sacred bathing ghat, is also famous as Brahmakund. The reflection of golden hues of floral diyas, in the river Ganga, is the most delightful sight in the twilight, throughout the Ganga Arti Ceremony. It is the most important ghat on the river Ganga, where a holy dip is a must for every devotee.
Mansa Devi Temple: One of the most visited temples in Haridwar, Mansa Devi Mandir occupies a place on top of the Shivalik hills. The temple is dedicated to Goddess Mansa Devi, believed to fulfill the wishes of those who visit here. It is a tradition with the devotees to tie sacred threads around the tree that stands within the premises of the Mansa Devi temple. From the temple, one can have heart stirring views of the Haridwar town. Along with Chandi Devi temple and the Maya Devi temple, it completes the Siddhapeeth Triangle.
Daksha Mahadev Temple: As per the ancient hindu mythology, this temple is supposed to have been the site of a yagya (ritual) conducted by Daksha. This ancient shrine, located in Kankhal town which is 4 k.m. from Haridwar.
Sati Kund: This is the holy place where the wife of Lord Shiva, Mata Sati is believed to have done the ritual of self-immolation. The ghat here is thus famous today as Sati Kund.
Rishikesh is a small town in the northern state of Uttarakhand in India. Scenically located where the Ganges River comes down from the Himalayas, Rishikesh catapulted to Western fame when the Beatles dropped by for a visit to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's ashram (now closed), and the town is still known as the World Capital of Yoga.
Rishikesh is also the Gateway to the Himalayas. The Char Dham Yatra (Four Shrines Sacred Journey) ideally begins from Rishikesh.
Places of Attraction
The Triveni Ghat: It is one of the most prominent bathing ghat in Rishikesh. With its modern images of Hindu deities and white sandy beach, the ghat is ideal for a dip in the holy waters of the Ganga. The evening, arati (worship) with lamps is worth watching.
Bharat Mandir: The Bharat Mandir near Triveni Ghat is esteemed to be the oldest temple in Rishikesh. The temple's presiding deity is a black stone Vishnu, which is considered to be blessed by Adi Shankaracharya while his visit to Rishikesh in the 9th century. This occasion is marked with special celebrations on the day of spring festival, Basant Panchami.
Lakshman Jhula: Lakshman Jhula is basically a hanging bridge on the Ganges and the most popular spot in Rishikesh. About 2 kms upstream is the old footbridge called Lakshmanjhula, named after the brother of Lord Rama. Temples line both sides of the river at Lakshmanjhula.
Swarg Ashram: With its numerous ashrams, food stalls and shops, this ashram is a haunt for those looking for insights into religious themes.Important shrines and ashrams at Swarg Ashram include Kali Kumbliwale founded by Swami Vishudhananda, Parmarth Niketan with large statues of gods and goddesses and the Gita Bhavan with its Ayurvedic dispensary.
In the evening during sunset, you will visit Ganga Aarti at Haridwar. Thousands of sects visit the ghats of the Ganga at Har ki Pauri at Haridwar to witness the aarti that started several decades ago. The tradition continues unabated and is a sight to behold. It takes place on the other side of the banks where you will see the priests light up the lamps in a clockwise manner, accompanied by songs in praise of Mother Ganga. After the ritual is complete, devotees will cup their hands over the flame and raise their palms to their forehead in order to get the Goddess's purification and blessing.

Dance Coach Told Student Her Skin Was 'Too Dark,' Suit Claims
Jamai Harris

A Black high school student in Kansas is suing her school for hiring a racist dance coach and enabling her behavior.
The Root reports Camille Sturdivant has filed a lawsuit against her former high school, a teacher, the principal and the former dance coach at the high school. Documents obtained by The Root reportedly show allegations that show a history of racist incidents by teachers and staff at the school.
In 2017, Sturdivant was a senior at Blue Valley Northwest High School in Overland Park, Kan. She had made the dance team her sophomore, junior and senior year, and was reportedly one of only two black students on the 14-member squad.
According to The Root, as the team had summer rehursals to prepare for the upcoming school year, Sturdivant claims that the team's choreographer, Kevin Murakami, told her that she couldn't perform the contemporary dance with the team. Murakami reportedly told Sturdivant that the color of her skin clashed with the color of the uniforms. Murakami added that Sturdivant's darker skin would cause the audience to look at her and not the other dancers.

According to Sturdivant's lawsuit, the choreographer did this "on behalf of and in conjunction with" Carley Fine, who served as the (and the lawsuit reportedly says this) "Caucasian Coach of the Dazzlers."
When Sturdivant's parents met with the principal regarding the dance coach's actions, the principal told the parents that Coach Fine did nothing wrong and it is within her rights as a coach to pick whomever she wanted for dance routines.
(US District Court via The Root)
Sturdivant decided to remain on the team.
Later that year, Sturdivant found out that not only been accepted to the University of Missouri but that she also made the university's dance team, the Golden Girls. She shared the news with her team and the "Caucasian Coach," and they reportedly seemed happy for her.
But days later, Coach Fine handed Sturdivant her phone to play some music for dance practice and while trying to decide on a song, Sturdivant noticed a few text messages between Coach Fine and Murakami about a white student who didn't make the Missouri Golden Girls:
Murakami: I can't believe Maggie didn't make it again. I'm heart broken.
Fine: AND CAMILLE (Sturdivant) MADE MENS. I can't talk about it.
Murakami: THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. I'm so mad."
Fine: It actually makes my stomach hurt.
Murakami: haha (emoji)
Fine: Bc she's fucking black. I hate that
Murakami: me too.
"Sturdivant was sickened," according to the lawsuit.
Sturdivant's parents took screenshots of the racist text messages to the principal. Fine was reportedly fired, banned from campus and barred from contacting Sturdivant.
But, what really happened was that the Coach kept working with the team off of school grounds and the team just excluded Sturdivant from activities. They reportedly had pizza parties without her, and an entire team banquet that they told Sturdivant and her parents was canceled, according to the suit.
One parent reportedly told other parents that Coach Fine was fired for saying "something racial to Camille (Sturdivant), but it was blown out of proportion."
Sturdivant alleges that her exclusion and discrimination was partially enabled by another teammate's parent, Katie Porter, who is defined as a (again, it's literally in the documents) "Caucasian third-grade teacher at Cottonwood Elementary." Sturdivant's lawsuit says that, as an employee of the school district, Porter is also liable for damages.
Sturdivant has since graduated but the suit says Sturdivant "continues to suffer from great pain of mind, shock, emotional distress, physical manifestations of emotional distress, embarrassment, degradation, loss of self-esteem, disgrace, missed educational opportunities, humiliation, and pain and suffering."

Q: Function in XNA game program that should clearly return with a non-null value returns null I'm writing an XNA program in C#.
I have an my Game class, a class called Player and one called Attack.
I when I construct attack within my Game class, I pass in the game instance as a parameter like this:
Attack attack(this);
In Attack I have an instance of Player called defender. The Player class has a getDefenseCard(Game game) method.
Within Attack, I have a call to defender.getDefenseCard(game), where game is the same instance of Game I passed to Attack in the constructor.
Within Player's getDefenseCard(Game game) I make a call to game.getCard(), which is a method in my Game class that checks to see if the user has clicked on a card and if so, it returns the card clicked. This is accomplished by checking the position of the mouse and whether there was a click.
The behaviour is looking for is that the card selected by the player will be returned all the way to Attack where it is processed. This is in fact the behaviour I get.
However there is one problem I'm experiencing. I want to give the player the option to select no cards. To accomplish this I have created a Card object called noDefense as an attribute of the Game class and initialized it to a value. The plan is that when my attack object receives this particular card it will process a no defense response.
To get this noDefense to the attack object I created a boolean value and a button. When the button is pressed, the boolean value is set to true. Within getCard, I first check to see if this boolean is true. If so I set it false and return the noDefense Card.
The problem I'm having is that while the button works and the getCard method does enter the if statement, the value that Player's getDefenseCard receives when getCard returns is a null object. Which is baffling, because I'm returning a non-null Card object.
Here is a simplified code to make the whole situation a little less narrative and more demonstrated:
class Game : Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game
{
    bool noDefenseSelected = false;
    Card noDefenseCard;
    Attack attack = new Attack(this);
    Button refuseDefense = new Button();

    protected override void Initialize()
    {
        noDefenseCard = new Card("no defense");
        refuseDefense.onClick += noDefenseButtonClicked;
    }

    protected override void Update(GameTime gameTime)
    {
        Attack.resolve();
    }

    public Card getCard()
    {
        if (noDefenseSelected)
        {
            noDefenseSelected = false;
            return noDefenseCard;
        }

        if (mouseNotOverCard())
        {
            return null;
        }

        if (mouseNotClicked())
        {
            return null;
        }

        return getCardFromClick();
    }

    public void noDefenseButtonClicked(Button b)
    {
        noDefenseSelected = true;
    }
}

class Player
{
    public Card getDefenseCard(Game game)
    {
        return game.getCard();
    }
}

class Attack
{
    Game game;
    Player defender = new Player();

    public Attack(Game game)
    {
        this.game = game;
    }

    public void resolve()
    {
        Card card = defender.getDefenseCard(game);
        if (card != null)
        {
            dealWithDefenseCard(card);
        }
    }
}

Again, the problem is that I do know for sure that the button works, getCard enters the first conditional, but for some reason it returns with null instead of noDefenseCard. If anybody could explain to me why that is and how to fix it, I'd be grateful. Thank you.

A: I have stripped out a lot of stuff (that was never being invoked in your posted code anyway) to get this to compile but the general structure is the same as what you posted, and it works in LinqPad.
I have a feeling that some code you have not posted is the cause of the problem...
 void Main()
    {
        Game g= new Game();
        g.Initialize();
        Attack a = new Attack(g);
        Card c = a.resolve();
        Console.WriteLine(c.name); //prints "no defense"

    }

//just a guess as to what Card looks like.
    public class Card
    {
        public string name{get;set;}
        public Card(string name){this.name=name;}
    }

    public class Game
    {
        bool noDefenseSelected = false;
        Card noDefenseCard;

//this is manually called in this example
        public void Initialize()
        {
           noDefenseCard = new Card("no defense");
           noDefenseSelected=true;
        }

        public Card getCard()
        {
          if (noDefenseSelected)
          {
             noDefenseSelected = false;
             return noDefenseCard;
          }
         //all other cases return null in this example.
          return null;
        }

    }

      public  class Player
      {
         public Card getDefenseCard(Game game)
         {
           return game.getCard();
         }
      }

      public class Attack
      {
         Game game;
         Player defender = new Player();

         public Attack(Game game)
         {
            this.game = game;
         }

         public Card resolve()
         {
            Card card = defender.getDefenseCard(game);
//returning card in this case for the example so it can be printed.
            return card;
           }

Gal Gadot | Gal Gadot and Patty Jenkins confirmed for Wonder Woman 3
Gal Gadot and Patty Jenkins are officially on board for 'Wonder Woman 3'.
Following success both at the box office and on streaming service HBO Max with 'Wonder Woman 1984', the sequel to 2017's 'Wonder Woman', Patty will return to helm the third instalment in the DC Extended Universe franchise and Gal will reprise her role as the titular superheroine.
Warner Bros. chief Toby Emmerich said in a statement: "As fans around the world continue to embrace Diana Prince, driving the strong opening weekend performance of 'Wonder Woman 1984', we are excited to be able continue her story with our real life Wonder Women – Gal and Patty – who will return to conclude the long-planned theatrical trilogy."
As per Warner Bros., 'Wonder Woman 1984' "opened to an estimated $16.7 million domestically at the Christmas box office, the best weekend debut since the novel coronavirus began."
The sequel has since earned $85 million worldwide.
Confirmation that Patty is set to direct the third movie comes after she recently cast doubt that she would be in charge of the third film.
The filmmaker also admitted it could be a long time before the movie sees the light of day, especially given the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the movie industry.
She said: "It's interesting, I actually came up with a story, and Geoff Johns and I beat out an entire story for 'Wonder Woman 3' that we were super fired up about, but I've never felt this way before as much as I do now."
She continued: "I don't think I'm doing it next and so I have to sort of wait and see where we are in the world, you know? What I wanted to talk about in ['WW84'] was very prescient to what I was feeling and what you were sort of feeling was coming. So now I'm not sure. So much has changed in the world."
Patty insisted she "still love[s] the story, I'm sure parts of it, would come over to it, but … I'm trying to say [to myself], 'Don't decide. Don't fall in love with anything. What would Wonder Woman do now? Like, what are you craving Wonder Woman to do now in this world?'"

The Z3300A is a multipattern, large-diaphragm FET condenser providing cardioid, omnidirectional, or figure-of-8 pickup patterns. It replaced the model Z3300 in 2004.
A switchable onboard HPF cuts low end rumble (below 100 Hz).
The circuit is built onto two dual-layer boards, and incorporates an output transformer.
The capsule is a dual-diaphragm design. The diaphragms measure 27mm (1.07'') in diameter, 6 microns in thickness, and are center-terminated.
The Z3300A features a wide frequency response, specified as 20Hz-20kHz, and includes a modest degree of high-frequency lift, starting at a little over 1kHz, plus a gentle presence peak centred at around 14kHz, lending the sound an open and airy quality but without going so far as to sound obviously coloured.
With acoustic guitar, the Z3300A delivered a full, believable sound with fantastic string-pluck definition. If you like an acoustic guitar sound that seems to have been sprinkled with fairy dust, this mic delivers it.
The Z3300a ships with a spider shockmount in an aluminum flightcase.
Although the Z3300A sounded a bit thin in comparative testing, it was still able to transform a rock kick drum into a thunderous marching bass drum with close placement in omni mode.
…the SE Electronics Z3300A was often too edgy for me in testing. But it was a solid performer in the studio. The Z3300A showed lots of tonal variation when changing patterns: its bidirectional pickup exhibited a hot sound with pronounced upper mids, and the omni pattern was notably brighter above 10 kHz and lacking in midrange tone. However, of the mics residing at the low end of the price scale, the Z3300A offered the best fidelity during sessions and trials, as well as the most impressive set of accessories in its class.
The SE Electronics Z3300A is also known as: Z3300, Z-3300A.

New material that makes objects invisible to touch | #material
Via Sploid
You're looking at a new awesome nano-material invented that does the seemingly impossible: It hides things from touch. Just a thin layer of this amazing polymer will hide anything under it from being perceived by your sense of touch. In this photo you can see how it "absorbs" a metal cylinder.
How is this magic possible?
According to the the scientists at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, this "crystalline material structured with sub-micrometer accuracy [...] consists of needle-shaped cones, whose tips meet." It perfectly adapts and absorbs the shape of anything under it.
The metamaterial structure directs the forces of the touching finger such that the cylinder is hidden completely.
Not only your finger won't be able to detect it, but a force feedback measurement instrument will fail too. According to Tiemo Bückmann, the lead scientists in the project, "it is like in Hans-Christian Andersen's fairy tale about the princess and the pea. The princess feels the pea in spite of the mattresses. When using our new material, however, one mattress would be sufficient for the princess to sleep well."
What does this mean in real life?
The Karlsruhe Institute of Technology claims that the material was developed for purely experimental purposes, "but might open up the door to interesting applications in a few years from now, as it allows for producing materials with freely selectable mechanical properties. Examples are very thin, light, and still comfortable camping mattresses or carpets hiding cables and pipelines below."
I like that. Carpets that can perfectly hide cables is something I'd pay money for. And I'd love a camping blanket that perfectly absorbs any rock and twig on the ground, leaving a smooth surface to sleep on.

What Else Could Smart Contact Lenses Do? | #vision
Via MIT Technology Review
Besides health tracking, contact lens technology under development could enable drug delivery, night vision, and augmented reality.
By Suzanne Jacobs
Last week Google and Novartis announced that they're teaming up to develop contact lenses that monitor glucose levels and automatically adjust their focus. But these could be just the start of a clever new product category. From cancer detection and drug delivery to reality augmentation and night vision, our eyes offer unique opportunities for both health monitoring and enhancement.
"Now is the time to put a little computer and a lot of miniaturized technologies in the contact lens," says Franck Leveiller, head of research and development in the Novartis eye care division.
One of the Novartis-Google prototype lenses contains a device about the size of a speck of glitter that measures glucose in tears. A wireless antenna then transmits the measurements to an external device. It's designed to ease the burden of diabetics who otherwise have to prick their fingers to test their blood sugar levels.
"I have many patients that are managing diabetes, and they described it as having a part-time job. It's so arduous to monitor," says Thomas Quinn, who is head of the American Optometric Association's contact lens and cornea section. "To have a way that patients can do that more easily and get some of their life back is really exciting."
Glucose isn't the only thing that can be measured from tears rather than a blood sample, says Quinn. Tears also contain a chemical called lacryglobin that serves as a biomarker for breast, colon, lung, prostate, and ovarian cancers. Monitoring lacryglobin levels could be particularly useful for cancer patients who are in remission, Quinn says.
Quinn also believes that drug delivery may be another use for future contact lenses. If a lens could dispense medication slowly over long periods of time, it would be better for patients than the short, concentrated doses provided by eye drops, he says. Such a lens is not easy to make, though (see "A Drug-Dispensing Lens").
The autofocusing lens is in an earlier stage of development, but the goal is for it to adjust its shape depending on where the eye is looking, which would be especially helpful for people who need reading glasses. A current prototype of the lens uses photodiodes to detect light hitting the eye and determine whether the eye is directed downward. Leveiller says the team is also looking at other possible techniques.
Google and Novartis are far from the only ones interesting in upgrading the contact lens with such new capabilities. In Sweden, a company called Sensimed is working on a contact lens that measures the intraocular pressure that results from the liquid buildup in the eyes of glaucoma patients (see "Glaucoma Test in a Contact Lens"). And researchers at the University of Michigan are using graphene to make infrared-sensitive contact lenses—the vision, as it were, is that these might one day provide some form of night vision without the bulky headgear.
A Seattle-based company, Innovega, meanwhile, has developed a contact lens with a small area that filters specific bands of red, green, and blue light, giving users the ability to focus on a very small, high resolution display less than an inch away from their eyes without interfering with normal vision. That makes tiny displays attached to glasses look more like IMAX movie screens, says the company's CEO, Steve Willey. Together, the lens and display are called iOptik.
Plenty of challenges still remain before we're all walking around with glucose-monitoring, cancer-detecting, drug-delivering super night vision. Some prototypes out there are unusually thick, Quinn says, and some use traditional, rigid electronics where clear, flexible alternatives would be preferable. And, of course, all will have to pass regulatory approval to show they are safe and effective.
Jeff George, the head of the Novartis eye care division, is certainly optimistic about Google's smart lens. "Google X's team refers to themselves as a 'moon shot factory.' I'd view this as better than a moon shot given what we've seen," he says.

Nuclear Nation Twice and Cinema after 3.11
This week and next week I will be participating in two events in Tokyo centered on films about the disasters on March 11, 2011, both of which—by chance—happen to feature screenings of the documentary Nuclear Nation (Futaba kara toku hanarete) and a discussion with the director Funahashi Atsushi.
The first will take place on July 18 at Josai University, and will include a panel discussion with me, Hayashi Chiaki, Kitano Keisuke, Abé Mark Nornes, Mark Roberts, Mitsuyo Wada-Marciano, and Akira Mizuta-Lippit on the issue of cinema after 3.11 Details can be found here.
The second will take place on the following Friday, July 25, at Sophia University. That will focus more on the film and will feature a talk after the screening between me and Funahashi-san. Details are available on this pdf.
There are a lot of films being made on 3.11—though many with some difficulties—which are increasingly becoming the subject of academic studies.

Ewha-Yale Conference: "Korean Literature, Art, and Film from 1910 to 1945"
This weekend I will be taking part in a conference coordinated by Ewha Women's University in South Korea and Yale University. Entitled "Korean Literature, Art, and Film from 1910 to 1945" that is being held at Ewha. A number of Yale and Ewha faculty will be taking part, as well as a former student of mine, Naoki Yamamoto, who is at the University of California, Santa Barbara. While I am not an expert on Korean cinema, I hope in my paper, "Colonial Era Korean Cinema and the Problem of Internalization," to pose some questions about the relation of film form to colonial subjectivity. Here is the abstract of my talk:
The internalization of the values of the colonizers in the mind of the colonized—the colonization of the mind—can be as crucial to the perpetuation of colonialism as the violence of legal or military force. I would like to analyze some colonial era films that I think pose some interesting questions about the problem of internalization during Japan's colonization of Korea. One could see in films like Military Train (1938) or Volunteer (1941) examples of characters internalizing the voices or visions of Japanese empire. Yet I wonder if these films do not also show us complications in these narratives of internalization. First, they may seem in part to internalize Japanese film language or style, but given fraught debates in Japan over what constituted a national cinema, Koreans were at best internalizing a cinema that Japanese authorities themselves had not internalized as sufficient to represent the modern Japanese nation. This situation may affect the entire phenomenon of internalization. What I am curious about is less whether there was internalization of Japanese cinema or not, than the shape of the "internal" within the colonial spatial dynamics: what the cinema tells us about the fraught nature of internalization itself, for instance about how the boundaries between internal and external are demarcated or rendered ambiguous, about the construction or deconstruction of internalized subjects, and the contradictions of representing internal states through external means like cinema. I wonder if we cannot hypothesize that, if colonial era Korean cinema seems often concerned with internal states, it is less because it is opening up the space that will be internalized by the colonial cinema, than it is exhibiting the cracks and contradictions in internalization itself and the problems of colonial subjectivity. I thus was particularly interested in the number of stories, such as Fisherman's Fire (1939), where gazes mattered, but which were often presented without point of view structures, or through point of view editing or eyeline matches that are considered wrong according to the rules of classical Hollywood cinema.
You can check out the schedule at the Yale CEAS site.

Q: How to access fragment instance inside a viewPager adapter from a RecyclerView adapter I have a process for creating a new restaurant. This is a 5 stage process which I built with a view pager and 5 fragments.
one of the fragments is for the user to upload photos of the place.
My problem starts, when I want to allow users to remove certain photos.
How, from within the recyclerAdapter's instance for that photo, I can remove it from the adapter itself, which is inside a fragment in the viewPager? The viewPager fragments are single instances, and I can't access them, so I'm  a bit lost.

A: Your instance of RecyclerView.Adapter should have a reference to the underlying data it's diplaying e.g. an array or a list of photos in your case.
The underlying data are used inside your Adapter's implementation of onBindViewHolder()
to fill the RecyclerView.ViewHolder at the given position.
To remove a photo, your fragment has to remove the corresponding entry in the underlying data set, then refresh the view by calling your adapter's notifyDataSetChanged()

Forecasters predict busy 2020 Atlantic hurricane season
by: FREIDA FRISARO, Associated Press
Posted: May 21, 2020 / 04:52 PM GMT-0500 / Updated: May 21, 2020 / 07:36 PM GMT-0500
FILE – In this May 15, 2020, photo, the Miami skyline is shrouded in clouds as a cyclist rides along Biscayne Bay at Matheson Hammock Park, in Miami. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Prediction Center, said Thursday, May 21, 2020, that six to 10 of the storms could develop into hurricanes, with winds of at least 74 mph. They're also predicting that three to six of those could develop into major hurricanes. (AP Photo/Lynne Sladky, File)
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — With forecasters predicting another intense Atlantic hurricane season with as many as 13 to 19 named storms, disaster preparedness experts say it's critically important for people in evacuation zones to plan to stay with friends or family, rather than end up in shelters during the coronavirus pandemic.
"Shelters are meant to keep you safe, not make you comfortable," said Carlos Castillo, acting deputy administrator for resilience at FEMA.
"Social distancing and other CDC guidance to keep you safe from COVID-19 may impact the disaster preparedness plan you had in place, including what is in your go-kit, evacuation routes, shelters, and more," Castillo said. "With tornado season at its peak, hurricane season around the corner, and flooding, earthquakes and wildfires a risk year-round, it is time to revise and adjust your emergency plan now."
Six to 10 of these storms could develop into hurricanes, with winds of 74 mph or more, and three to six could even become major hurricanes, capable of inflicting devastating damage.
"It is not possible to predict how many will hit land," said Neil Jacobs, acting administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Prediction Center. The agency will update the forecast in August as the Atlantic region heads into its most active months.
The region has been a "high activity era" since 1995, with warmer ocean temperatures and stronger West African monsoons causing above-average activity, NOAA forecaster Gerry Bell said.
An average Atlantic season has 12 named storms, but last year was the fourth consecutive season to have more, with 18 named storms, including three intense hurricanes — Dorian, Humberto and Lorenzo. The only other period on record that produced four consecutive above-normal seasons was 1998-2001.
The season officially extends from June through November, but Tropical Storm Arthur jumped the gun last week off the eastern U.S. coastline.
"As Americans focus their attention on a safe and healthy reopening of our country, it remains critically important that we also remember to make the necessary preparations for the upcoming hurricane season," said Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross. "Just as in years past, NOAA experts will stay ahead of developing hurricanes and tropical storms and provide the forecasts and warnings we depend on to stay safe."

Paramedic-run wound care team treats pediatric patients in Fla. ER
The program gives medics an expanded role in a different health care setting, and frees up nursing staff to work with more patients
By Naseem S. Miller
ORLANDO, Fla. — There's a special team at the emergency department of Nemours Children's Hospital that has one main responsibility: taking care of children's boo-boos.
The Boo-Boo Care Team for the past year has been treating kids' wounds: cuts, bites, stings, ingrown nails and other small injuries that bring children to the emergency room.
What makes the team unique is that it is made up of paramedics.
FOX 35 News Orlando
The presence of paramedics in the ER isn't new. Hospitals, including Orlando Health and Florida Hospital, hire paramedics as technicians to administer IVs, triage patients, draw blood or transport patients.
But Nemours and a few other hospitals across the nation are starting to give paramedics an expanded role and more responsibility, including wound care.
With an aging population and the looming physician shortage, "we need to try and get health-care providers to work at their top ability at multiple health-care settings," said Matt Zavadsky, a member of the board of directors at the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians.
With their advanced training, paramedics in hospitals can "help alleviate some of the nursing staff to even do more work with more patients," said Zavadsky, public-affairs director for MedStar Mobile Healthcare in Fort Worth, Texas, and a University of Central Florida alum.
Nemours already hires close to 50 paramedics to staff its state-of-the-art logistics center to monitor patients around the clock. So when Earl Fowler arrived here from a children's hospital in Ohio, he didn't hesitate for long before trying to establish a paramedic-run wound-care team in the emergency room, similar to one he had worked with before in Ohio.
He had seen that such a team not only frees up nurses and doctors but also does a better job at stitching and caring for wounds, because that's the main thing it's responsible for.
"We try to fix [the wounds] as perfect as we can so in that way the outcome is perfect, and [patients] won't have to worry about scarring," said Fowler, nurse manager for Nemours' emergency department.
The Boo-Boo Care Team at Nemours has three members, and a fourth is in training. The paramedics undergo six months of training to learn how to stitch and care for wounds in different parts of the body.
"This training bridges the gap" in what paramedics already know, said Kevin Brito, 27, who leads the team. It also helps them shift their mind-set: from fixing patients to be handed off to the emergency department to, instead, caring for them so that they can go home, he said.
When patients arrive at Nemours' emergency room, a nurse at the front desk quickly assesses the patients. If the patient needs wound care, the nurse pages a paramedic.
Brito has found that patients whose wounds are fixed by paramedics spend about an hour less in the ER compared with those who have to wait for other providers.
The team then follows physician-approved protocols to discharge the patients and, depending on their wounds, follows up with them one or two weeks after discharge. The simple phone call, Brito said, can help prevent unnecessary hospital visits.
And there are also Boo-Boo Selfies. Willing patients can take a picture of their wound before and in intervals after repair.
"The families love it because it helps them to be involved," Brito said. The photos, which are sent to the care team via email, are used for educational purposes, or what Brito calls "Stitchy Situations."
Since getting established in June 2014, the team has cared for more than 600 patients. The hospital estimates that the initiative has saved close to 500 hours of emergency-physician time.
"It helps with our flow and our efficiency," said Dr. Nazeema Khan-Assad, medical director of Nemours emergency department. "It gives us a little bit of freedom to see another critically ill patient that may be we wouldn't get to see until an hour later."

The "Pi in the Sky" math challenge gives students a chance to take part in recent discoveries and upcoming celestial events, all while using math and pi just like NASA scientists and engineers. In this problem from the set, students use the mathematical constant pi to identify the timing and location of a seismic event on Mars, called a "marsquake."
The InSight lander seismometer, SEIS, listens to the pulse of Mars. SEIS records the waves traveling through the interior structure of a planet. Studying seismic waves tells us what might be creating the waves. On Mars, scientists suspect that the culprits may be marsquakes, meteorites striking the surface, or hot, molten magma moving at great depths underneath the surface. This activity focuses on how the SEIS instrument works to determine the time at which seismic events occur on the planet. InSight also carries a heat flow probe and a radio science experiment.
*Note times are in UTC, which is written in hh:mm:ss format.
Use the formulas below to determine the velocity (U) in rad/s of the surface wave, the distance in radians on the sphere from InSight to the epicenter (Δ), and the time the marsquake occurred (t0).

Q: Solr PHP client vs file_get_contents? I am using PHP to access Solr and I wonder one thing.
Why should I use Solr PHP client when I can use:
$serializedResult = file_get_contents(
                      'http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=niklas&wt=phps');

to get the result in arrays and then print them out?  I don't really get the difference. Are there any richer features with the PHP client?

A: I think because of following reasons:

*

*Flexibility

*Error Handling

*Security Issues

*Extendibility

All issues are the headache of these pre-made scripts and frameworks. So if there is a solution for certain thing, i would recommend you to go with that rather than doing everything from your own.
Also since these scripts and frameworks have good community support, there are lesser bugs,
security issues and more.

A: The solr-php-client library actually has an adapter for file_get_contents (@see Apache_Solr_HttpTransport_FileGetContents), plus another for Curl. The solr-php-client library is an elaborate framework that allows you to do much more than post a URL w/ parameters so you can complete a search. SPC provides predictability, extensibility, and security. Furthermore, the solr-php-client is written to Zend Framework standards, so it compliments any ZF project.
If I have a choice between choosing a well-maintained, community-supported project, and writing my own script which will not be superior, I choose the well-maintained, community-supported project. If you have needs that are outside of that project, you can still write your own script, but again, this kind of library is build so you can extend it painlessly.

A: I guess that the solr client just parses the results and provides you convenient way to pass the parameters (constructing the URL for you etc.).

A: To use, file_get_contents()... your php must have "allow_url_open" enabled. If you host your website on certain hosts then they dont allow to use this function because of they keep this setting OFF.

A: In some cases, however, it might make sense to do file_get_contents(). SolrClient doesn't have anything for field collapsing (it's a patch not available in the trunk) so I have to either write my own class which mimics SolrClient and SolrQuery if I can't do it with the PECL library.


Israeli forces shot dead a Palestinian in fresh clashes on the Gaza border Sunday, the health ministry in the Hamas-run enclave said.
Imad Ishtawi, 21, was shot in the head, the ministry said, as Palestinians again gathered along the border east of Gaza City late Sunday in the latest in months of often violent demonstrations.
The strip's Islamist rulers Hamas had been rumoured to be seeking a lasting truce with Israel but the indirect talks have seemingly stalled, with protests subsequently increasing in number.
In recent weeks the demonstrations, which typically involve burning tires and throwing stones, have also taken place at night, though with far smaller numbers than the regular Friday daytime gatherings.
At least 186 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire since the protests began on March 30.
