As the TARDIS door opens onto a barren planet, The Doctor steps straight into a struggle to destroy the merciless Krotons, the unseen rulers of the Gond people.
Conditioned to obey by teaching machines, the Gonds put up no resistance until, with The Doctor's help, they discover exactly what has been happening to their best students.
Battling against the Krotons' vast scientific knowledge The Doctor and Zoe must stop them turning mental power into pure energy. With a brave band of Gonds and Jamie, prepared to fight to the end, it may be defeat for the Krotons, but ultimately it will be a test of knowledge that only The Doctor can match
On an unnamed planet, a race called the Gonds are subject to the mysterious Krotons, unseen beings to whom they provide their brightest intelligences as "companions". Thara, son of the Gond leader Selris, is the only one of his race to object to this practice, those who have become companions before have never been seen nor heard from again. The Doctor, Jamie and Zoe arrive in time to witness the death of one of the chosen companions, Abu, who is vaporised by smoke sprayed from nozzles on either side of the doorway from which he emerges, and intervene to save Vana, the other selected for this fate, using her survival as a means to convince Selris and the Gonds of the malign influence of the Krotons on their society. The Doctor calls it "self-perpetuating slavery" by which the brightest in Gond society have been removed. Similarly, there are large gaps in their knowledge, especially relating to chemistry. This situation has been in existence for many years since the Krotons arrived in their spaceship, releasing a poison that polluted the lands beyond the Gond city – which the Gonds call 'the Wasteland' – and killed much of the Gond population.
Thara uses the disquiet of the situation to lead a rebellion and attack the Teaching Machines of the Krotons in the Hall of Learning. This prompts a crystalline probe to appear and defend the Machines, and warn the Gonds to cease their rebellion. Zoe now tries the Teaching Machines and is selected to be a "companion" of the Krotons. The Doctor elects the same fate and both are summoned into the Dynotrope where they are subjected to a mental attack. Zoe deduces that the Krotons have found a way to transfer mental power into pure energy, while The Doctor busies himself with taking chemical samples of the Kroton environment. Circumstances now trigger the creation of two Krotons from chemical vats within the Dynatrope (the Kroton spaceship). The newly created Krotons capture Jamie, but are really seeking The Doctor and Zoe, the "High Brains", who have now left the Dynatrope. It takes Jamie quite some time before he is able to make an effective escape.
Eelek and Axus, two councillors previously loyal to the Krotons, who begin to rally for all-out war with the Krotons, have now seized the initiative in Gond society. The more level headed Selris is deposed, but warns that an all-out attack will not benefit his people. Instead he has decided to attack the machine from underneath by destabilising its very foundation in the underhall. Eelek has Selris arrested and also reasserts control by negotiating with the Krotons that they will leave the planet if provided with the two "High Brains" who can help them power and pilot their ship. Zoe and the Doctor are forced into the Dynatrope and Selris dies providing them with a phial of acid which The Doctor adds to the Kroton vats. Outside, Jamie and the scientist Beta launch an attack on the structure of the ship using sulphuric acid. This two-pronged assault destroys the tellurium-based Krotons and their craft. The Dynatrope dissolves away and the Gonds are free at last – choosing Thara rather than the cowardly and ambitious Eelek to lead them.
Leaving the Gonds to find their own answers for the future, The Doctor, Jamie and Zoe slip away back to the TARDIS and new adventures.
The Krotons is the fourth serial of the sixth season of the British science fiction television series Doctor Who,
Popular Welsh actor Philip Madoc makes his first appearance in Doctor Who as Eelek.
Working titles for this story included The Trap and The Space Trap. Holmes had originally submitted The Trap to the BBC as a stand-alone science-fiction serial in 1965.
Frazer Hines had originally intended to leave the series at this point but decided to stay on to the end of the season after he learned that Patrick Troughton would also be bowing out then. This was the main reason why a light-hearted story entitled The Prison in Space by Dick Sharples, in which Jamie was to have been written out and a new companion character called Nik introduced, was dropped at the last minute and the Krotons brought forward from later in the season to fill the slot.

With skiers who like to go really fast in mind (we're looking at you race leaguers), we designed the DOBERMANN GSR RB. Modeled after our World Cup race skis with a more fun and playful non-FIS radius and a less aggressive tip shape, the GSR RB is quick edge to edge, damp and lively, and keeps you balanced while providing on-demand power and control. Loaded with phenol sidewalls and a carbon race bridge in the tip and tail, it's the most stable ski in the line, excelling on hard, icy conditions. Adding to the lively nature of the ski, we introduce the new Recoil Power Plate. Inspired by one of the most successful plates on the World Cup, the Piston Plate, the Recoil allows the ski to flex naturally for a smoother ride. Skiers looking to dominate their next race or simply hit top speeds at their local ski area: Look no further than the DOBERMANN GSR RB.

Christopher Jones was lurking behind a dumpster at a FedEx Kinkos at Skillman and LBJ around 2 this morning when, according to Dallas PD, a police cruiser pulled to a stop nearby.
The officers inside, Kyle Tholl and Erik Vasquez, were on routine patrol when they spotted spotted two men in the middle of what seemed to be a drug deal in the print shop parking lot. They got out, and officer Vasquez began talking with the suspected drug dealers.
Meanwhile, officer Tholl had spotted Jones, who had emerged from the dumpster some 20 yards away with a coat draped over his shoulders and his hands at his front waistband. When he saw Jones pull out a gun, Tholl unholstered his own and yelled at the 21-year-old to drop the weapon.
Instead, police say, Jones raised the barrel toward Tholl. Tholl fired first, narrowly missing Jones but prompting the 21-year-old to fall to the ground yelling "It's a BB gun! It's a BB gun!"
And it was, albeit one that "closely resembled a 9 mm handgun," according to police.
Jones was arrested and taken to Lew Sterrett on a charge of aggravated assault on a public servant. That's a first degree felony, which means Jones will get five to 99 years in prison if convicted.


Last Friday, Hassan Rouhani won a landslide victory in the race to become president of Iran, taking more than fifty percent of the vote against five other candidates and obviating the need for a runoff. From America's perspective, this was the best possible outcome. Rouhani, who had served as Iran's nuclear negotiator under the moderate President Mohammad Khatami, crushed the more strident Saeed Jalili, who has served in a similar role under Ahmadinejad.
Further, the outcome was a surprise. For much of the campaign, the expected favorite was hard-right candidate Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf. Observers wondered if Rouhani might be disqualified, and just one week ago the editorial board of the Washington Post confidently predicted Rouhani "will not be allowed to win". From the perspective of the most extreme elements of Iran's regime, this result is a frightening disappointment. From the perspective of Washington, it is definitely encouraging.
But just how encouraging? The closest historical parallel, America's experience dealing with Khatami's presidency from 1997 to 2005, is sobering. It is also instructive.
Like Rouhani's recent statements weighing dialogue with the US, Khatami's rhetoric on terrorism, the two-state solution, and coexistence with America was extraordinarily encouraging. But in the end it led nowhere. America's greatest concerns about Iranian behavior are in the security realm, and Iran's president has typically been a weak actor in this sector, intimidated by the country's supreme leader.
Part of the challenge with improving US–Iran relations involves a problem of sequencing. Optimists in both countries are reluctant to take on too much political risk making overtures toward each other, and neither side wants to take the first step. The logical formula in this regard is for the United States to grant Iran sanctions relief in exchange for changes in Iranian behavior, but neither side trusts that the other country will follow through.
Further, since each side believes it is the aggrieved party, it argues that the other country should be the one to act first. The US was ready to lift sanctions on Iran if Khatami could demonstrate the ability and will to moderate Iran's threatening policies, while Iran claimed it was ready to change these policies only after the United States rolled back its extensive sanctions regime. In the end, neither side did much.
One way of overcoming this impasse is to improve coordination among sympathetic leaders. Clinton tried to do this by opening a direct channel to Khatami, raising the idea through intermediaries such as the Swiss in 1997, the Saudis in 1998, and the Omanis in 1999. However, Khatami never offered a substantive response to any of these requests. If Rouhani really wants to improve ties with the United States, he would be well-advised to respond when Washington takes these sorts of actions.
Despite the fact that their careers followed different trajectories to the presidency, Rouhani's record does not suggest that he is going to be much bolder than Khatami in this regard. Khatami had little experience on national security issues and was reluctant to challenge Iran's supreme leader. Rouhani has much more experience in this sector, having previously served as the head of Iran's national security council for sixteen years, but his low-key style suggests he may be just as reluctant as Khatami to rattle the supreme leader with this sort of step.
The US also tried taking unilateral confidence-building measures during Khatami's administration that elicited little in the way of substantive policy responses. Iranian leaders suggested that they would respond positively if the US lifted sanctions on carpets, food products, and airplane parts but did not react after Washington actually did so in March of 2000. In fact, Rouhani himself devalued the change as "infinitesimal"; such a posture does little to encourage other gestures of good will.
Of course, the Clinton administration could also have done a better job with how it presented some of these gestures. For instance, when Secretary of State Madeleine Albright apologized for America's role in a 1953 coup against the government of Iran, the speech elicited some praise from Rouhani. However, he reacted more strongly to elements of the speech that he felt were objectionable for criticizing the structure of Iran's regime. (Supreme Leader Khamenei dismissed Albright's remarks entirely as "just another ploy" by the U.S. to undermine Iran).
Similarly, when Clinton sent a letter to Khatami via Oman's foreign minister, one of the reasons Khatami reportedly struggled to respond was that he did not know how to handle the letter's suggestion that Iran was responsible for a 1996 terrorist attack on US troops at Khobar, Saudi Arabia. Clinton's advisers say they included the line to protect Clinton from domestic criticism, but in retrospect the move undermined America's overall effort to engage and bolster Iranian moderates. When making genuine overtures of this sort, there is little room for covering one's own behind.
Another option is to use side issues as a basis for building confidence between the US and Iran. The two countries were able to pursue surprisingly constructive cooperation over Afghanistan after the US invasion in 2001. This cooperation was approved by both President Khatami and Supreme Leader Khamenei, and it even extended to constructive interactions between US officials and Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps over how to stabilize Afghanistan's new government.
However, cooperation fell apart after Bush listed Iran as a member of the axis of evil in his 2002 State of the Union speech. This example helps highlight how sidebar efforts at cooperation between the US and Iran face enormous obstacles to success. Political expediency and other areas of dispute make such efforts manageable to initiate but extremely difficult to widen or sustain. It is difficult to envision how piecemeal cooperation can be sustained in the midst of Iran's nuclear ambitions, promotion of terrorism, and support for the wrong side in Syria's nasty civil war.
Given that the Obama administration maintains that the time for diplomacy is not yet up, the crucial question may be whether the US should continue to pursue a confidence-building approach toward Iran that aims at limited agreements on the nuclear file or whether the time is right for a broader endgame proposal.
The Khatami experience should be especially instructive in this regard. Like a skeleton in the closet, the specter of Khobar hung over every effort by the Clinton administration to reach out to Khatami.
Thus, may be easier to propose an endgame proposal on the nuclear file around the time of Rouhani's inauguration in August than to wait much longer in hopes that confidence-building steps can improve the atmosphere for a deal. The longer Rouhani is in the job, the easier it becomes for skeptics to tie him to bad behavior by the regime, even if hard evidence is lacking.
There is one other reason working in favor of making a major proposal to end the Iranian nuclear standoff sooner rather than later: the election of Rouhani has made it tougher for the United States to engage in a military strike against the country's nuclear program. Now, America's allies will no doubt be less supportive of military action until they feel the US has put Rouhani's purported moderation to the test.

Nowadays there is an almightily fine line within degrees. You have the specialist ones, which lead to a specific job that offer little flexibility – with one example being that of an architect. Then, there is the varied solution, something that covers a bit of everything but has very few direct career paths – with psychology being our chosen example here. The big issue for students is finding something that falls right in between and as the title of our post suggests, a business management degree could offer exactly that.
Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to be an aspiring Bill Gates or Sir Richard Branson to venture into this type of education. The business management degree advantages span far and wide, and mean that it's a path that can be appropriate for a wide range of individuals. Here, we take a look at just what it offers and why it could be so powerful for your career.
In our eyes, this is the prime benefit associated with a degree of this type. The name might hint that it's solely related to business, and anybody who pursues it should be thrown straight onto the management ladder of a FTSE 100 firm. However, nowadays especially, this couldn't be further away from the truth.
This is a degree which is probably one of the most flexible out there. While the corporate scene does apply to a lot of graduates, it's not the only option. Because of the variation in modules that are taught in this degree, and the fact that business managers just always "expect the unexpected", graduates in this discipline are always attractive for any industry. It's one of the few degrees out there which teaches flexibility – and this can allow you to embark on multiple career changes which is something that some people just don't have available to them.
If you have ever read a self-help business blog or book, you'll have probably heard that dreaded cliché of learning from your mistakes – and how each failure can make you stronger. While this is certainly true, the beauty about sitting down and "learning business" is that you can also learn from other people's mistakes. Ultimately, when you are given the chance to study exact case studies, it can make the real world a little easier for you and considerably less costly.
I have a business degree and it has come in handy, but I will be a self employed entrepreneur soon so it will have been a bit of a waste. I made my money back that I sunk into it, at least.

I took several candid shots of this Burkina Faso friend at a party. Here is a before and after that I'd like critiqued. Actually they are different shots in a burst. I didn't edit the first one. I did a lot of editing on the second in Lightroom only. Unfortunately, I couldn't get her skin tone to be realistic in this available-light series (she has a much richer dark - almost blue-black - complexion).
In the second image, she is very red with perhaps some green.
Have you tried using a WB reading using the white of her eyes? This may get you a good starting point.
Post edited over 1 year ago by Qbx.
Here are two more attempts I think they're both much better. Thanks Micro.
Last two are super-blue! I think originally you were on the right track colorwise. For skin you should go into PS - LR is not made for this despite some tutorials try to tell us Also in PS - couple curves/color adjustment layers will do the trick, imo. Right in the LR you could drop a bit of saturation down. And about those eyes - red as f*** - anoter layer for them - perhaps just desaturate and lighten a bit [that's what I do, when I am too lazy to clean up all those blood thingies].
Give us "Street Photography" sub-forum in P.O.T.N. !
Here's the way she looks with flash. The geezer in the photo is not me. With incandescent light I just can't seem to manage the color balance to get her dark skin tones.
That flash shot really doesn't work. But that's really not the big issue. If the flash is on camera, bounce it. If it's off camera (not easy at a party) use a modifier that diffuses the light well (or bounce it). If you are using the built-in camera flash unit, you probably shouldn't be ... that's actually suitable only for gentle 'fill' or very desperate situations.
My wife (now, sadly, passed) was black and our son is 'half'. Of course, his complexion is much lighter but it raises the same kind of challenges in terms of capturing actual skin tones. I recently bought an X-rite Passport Colour Checker gizmo for about five-times what I would consider a fair price. But, when you use it, it really delivers. Skin colour is absolutely spot-on. I could not be more satisfied with the results ... despite my unhappiness with the price.
I totally agree with what you said; however, I posted the flash shot to show what her skin tones really look like. The flash got it almost perfectly right. She has that very dark almost blue-black pure-African complexion which I like a lot. It's just a challenge to get it right (for me) in tungsten light. I wish I had had a gray card during the party where I met her. Hopefully I'll get her to do a photo-shoot someday and I'll have time to experiment with different lighting.
Thanks for the suggestion to use Photoshop. You're right about that and the eyes. I got into it and here's the result. I applied a glamour-glow, tweaked color balance, worked on an eye layer, and a few more things I don't remember.
I have a family of nine children, six of which are black (adopted.
I (only recently) picked up one of the Colour Checker product range. They are expensive for what they are but they do the job (for all skin tones).
Thanks Chauncey and DaviSto for the tips, but is that color board really any better than a gray card? How do you decide which color to look at and use as the exposure basis? Would you use different colors (on the card) for black vs white skin?
It comes with software that allows you to set up a camera profile for specific light conditions. You then apply that profile in post. It's very straightforward and quick (LR add-in). The process takes into account the full array of colours not just the individual cell that is 18% grey.
You would apply the same profile to all skin tones and all should be accurately represented. You can always go on to edit further from that starting point.
As an example this is a shot of them all.
Looks like you've been hit by the curse of photobucket. No photograph displayed. There's a recently started thread on this.
EDIT ... I did manage to get to the photograph eventually using the link that appeared above in this message (i.e. my reply) but that seems to have disappeared again. Strange goings on.
Meanwhile, it's quite a crew you have there!
I'd love to see the photo, so why not try putting it into your gallery here.

13 May —24 June, 2017 Opening: 13 May, 4-6 PM "Thank you for your email and your interest, but this won't be possible" Conor O'Shea
Press Release: Written by Tom Smith
Following a strictly iterative logic, Conor O'Shea has produced over 200 drawings since 2014. Here he presents a new series of sculptural iterations: a multiplicity of objects set in an array of materials (paper, ink, wax, stone). As more drawings are produced and as they are documented and repeated, the simple forms multiply and evolve, continually shifting in form and becoming unstable. By producing hundreds of images within these narrow parameters and then selecting the most 'successful' among them, the artist hedges his bets—surely some will be 'successful'.
Crucially though, only a few images will ever be selected for preservation, and set aside to be sealed in wax or in plastic sleeves for the exhibition. A largely arbitrary selection of works is documented and reinserted into the exhibition in various ways: recontextualised in a digital image of the gallery space, placed in the traditional mediated space of a book, and circulated on-line. By including forms of documentation in the exhibition, the artist speculates on a series of futures in which certain drawings—but not others—may continue to exist. In this way the exhibition meticulously reproduces the circulatory logic of contemporary art.
In a literal sense Conor's work is an inquiry into both the repetitive process of producing imagery, and the degree to which these images are subsequently distributed. The result is a double re/production that broaches two central concepts:
a. Repetition — he doesn't so much produce drawings, as a set of parameters for their relentless reproduction.
b. Documentation — by documenting the drawings and mimicking their circulation, he re/produces the processes via which they are judged by the market forces to be 'successful' or otherwise.
Relentless documentation is central to the market logic of contemporary art. As Suhail Malik suggests, contemporary art is not so much about production or content, as it is about circulation; if an artwork does not exist in the network as viewable documentation, it cannot be repeated. For Malik, "Arts contents and claims are at best placeholders or alibis for a series of power operations to which it is now subordinated." Conor's work speaks to these conditions—in that it reproduces the fundamental contingency that is perhaps contemporary arts unifying feature. By evacuating itself of content and focusing only on frameworks, containers and conduits that make it possible, Conor's work ambivalently reflects on the real/ essential conditions of contemporary arts re/production.

Q: Get the number of rows in a HTML table I've browsed the Internet looking for an answer on this but I can't find a solution. I want to count the amount of rows my HTML table has in when a link button is pressed. Can someone help me out please?
This is what I have so far:
 $('#HypSelectAll').click(function () {
     var count = $('#gvPerformanceResult').children().length;
     for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
        alert(i);
     }
 });

But some reason it returns 0 even though I have about 12 rows in my table? I've checked my ID name and it's correct.

A: var x = document.getElementById("myTable").rows.length;

A: Try:
var count = $('#gvPerformanceResult tr').length;

A:
The following code assumes that your table has the ID 'MyTable'
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
var oRows = document.getElementById('MyTable').getElementsByTagName('tr');
var iRowCount = oRows.length;

alert('Your table has ' + iRowCount + ' rows.');
//-->
</script>

Answer taken from : http://www.delphifaq.com/faq/f771.shtml, which is the first result on google for the query : "Get the number of rows in a HTML table" ;)

A: In the DOM, a tr element is (implicitly or explicitly) a child of tbody, thead, or tfoot, not a child of table (hence the 0 you got). So a general answer is:
var count = $('#gvPerformanceResult > * > tr').length;

This includes the rows of the table but excludes rows of any inner table.

A: Well it depends on what you have in your table.
its one of the following
If you have only one table

If you are concerned about sub tables but this wont work with tbody and thead (if you use them)
var count = $('#gvPerformanceResult>tr').length;

Where by this will work (but is quite frankly overkill.)
var count = $('#gvPerformanceResult>tbody>tr').length;

I Saw the Light ist eine US-amerikanische Filmbiografie aus dem Jahr 2015. Regie führte Marc Abraham, der ebenfalls das Drehbuch schrieb, das auf der 1994er Biografie Hank Williams: The Biography von Colin Escott über den Country-Sänger Hank Williams basiert. Die Hauptrollen spielen Tom Hiddleston und Elizabeth Olsen.

Handlung
Erzählt werden die letzten neun Jahre aus dem Leben des ebenso talentierten wie schwierigen Country-Sängers Hank Williams, der im Laufe seines kurzen Lebens zu einem der einflussreichsten Songwriter und zu einem der beliebtesten Musiker der USA wurde. I Saw the Light ist auch eines der bekanntesten Lieder des Sängers und war eines seiner ersten Hits.

1944 heiratet der noch unbekannte Sänger Hank Williams die frisch geschiedene Audrey Mae Sheppard beim örtlichen Friedensrichter in einer Tankstelle. Er arbeitet für den lokalen Radiosender WSFA und tritt in kleinen Kneipen auf. Seine Frau drängt ihn, sie während seiner Auftritte an der Show zu beteiligen. Trotz eher mäßiger Sangeskünste kommt Hank ihrem Wunsch nach und verteidigt sie auch vor seinen Bandmitgliedern. Aufgrund seiner Unzuverlässigkeit durch zunehmenden Alkoholkonsum wird er vom Sender entlassen. Eine Entziehungskur hilft ihm nicht nur dabei, seine Karriere zu verbessern, sondern auch seine Ehe zu retten.

Durch den bekannten Musikproduzenten Fred Rose bekommt Williams einen Plattenvertrag bei MGM Records sowie einen Auftritt in der Radioshow Louisiana Hayride. Schließlich schafft er es sogar, in der Grand Ole Opry in Nashville aufzutreten. Eine ihm angebotene Filmrolle lehnt er ab.

Kurz nachdem seine Ehe mit Audrey geschieden wird, spannt Williams dem ebenfalls dort auftretendem Sänger Faron Young die Freundin aus und heiratet sie kurz danach. Seine Gesundheit verschlechtert sich zusehends, und er stirbt am Neujahrstag 1953 mit 29 Jahren während der Fahrt zu einem Konzert in Ohio aufgrund einer Unverträglichkeit eines Medikamentes an Herzversagen.

Hintergrund
Seine Premiere feierte der Film am 11. September 2015 in Kanada beim Toronto International Film Festival. Nach diversen Aufführungen auf Filmfestivals in Kanada und den Vereinigten Staaten war der offizielle Kinostart in den USA am 1. April 2016, in Deutschland erschien der Film am 4. August 2016 direkt auf DVD bzw. Blu-ray. Die Produktionskosten werden auf rund 13 Millionen US-Dollar geschätzt.

Auf der Weihnachtsparty, die nach Hanks erster Grand-Ole-Opry-Performance gezeigt wird, hört man den Song Santa Baby, gesungen von Eartha Kitt, im Hintergrund. Der Song wurde allerdings erst neun Monate nach dem Tode von Williams im Oktober 1953 veröffentlicht. In einer Szene liest Hank Lycrecia eine Geschichte aus einem Pulp Magazin vor. Laut Storyline spielt die Szene im Jahr 1947 obwohl die Ausgabe aus der er vorliest erst im November 1952 veröffentlicht wurde.

Rezeption
Die Rezeption des Films war weitgehend negativ. Obwohl die schauspielerischen Leistungen Anerkennung fanden, wurde der Film von den Kritikern als "stumpfsinnig" und "wenig überzeugend" bezeichnet. Bei Rotten Tomatoes gaben 18 % der Kritiker dem Film eine positive Bewertung; in der Zuschauerbewertung lag er bei 36 %. Der Filmdienst bezeichnet den Film "trotz guter Darsteller" als "zu oberflächlich".

Norwich takeaway goes from one to four-star food hygiene rating

The owner of a city centre takeaway is hoping his customers will return after his business climbed its way back up to a four-star hygiene rating following a reinspection.
Siciliano takeaway, located in Prince of Wales Road, was handed a one-star rating after an inspection by Norwich City Council in July last year.

But now its owner, Waris Khan, is happy to announce it now has a four-star rating.
The 28-year-old, who has been running the business for the last eight years, said he was "shocked" when he received the low hygiene rating, with an inspector claiming staff were not seen washing their hands.
"I was really sad when we got a one-star rating," he said. "I was not happy. I thought everything was okay.
"We have been here for a long time, everyone knows us. But when people found out they stopped coming to my shop. It really affected my business.

"I didn't understand why. I have never had that experience before. It was the first time we have received one-star."
The council revisited Siciliano – which has been in Prince of Wales for more than 20 years - back in November and an inspector wrote that they were "pleased to see that the premises had been cleaned to a high standard".
Mr Khan said he has improved the daily cleaning schedule, replaced the canopy outside and added new grills.
Although he is happy with his four-star rating, Mr Khan believes the business could get five stars.
He added: "I think everything is perfect. But hopefully we can get that next time.
"When I got my four stars, we were busy again. My customers came back because they love our food."
There are currently 15 businesses in Norwich with a hygiene rating of one or below.
This includes Roger Hickman's fine dining restaurant in Upper St Giles Street which received a one-star rating in November.
Mr Hickman, chef-proprietor, said he was "disappointed" with the inspector's report which came just weeks before the restaurant was due to close for a £70,000 refurbishment.

A story about Labour and antisemitism that the BBC chose to ignore
Since the BBC One 'Panorama' documentary about antisemitism in the UK Labour party was aired last week the BBC has produced a considerable amount of multi-platform follow-up content on that topic.
One recent story which the BBC has however not covered is the reaction to a Labour MP's meeting with a member of the Jordanian parliament.
"A senior member of the UK Labour Party met last week in London with a Jordanian lawmaker who has voiced support for terror attacks against Israelis and called for tearing up the peace deal between his country and Israel.
Yahya al-Saud, a member of Jordan's House of Representatives, posted a picture to his Facebook account Thursday of himself with Labour MP Fabian Hamilton outside the Houses of Parliament. […]
According to al-Saud, he and other members of the Jordanian parliament's Palestine Committee met with Hamilton at the House of Commons, where they discussed stopping Israel's "racist" practices toward the Palestinians, as well other aspects of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. […]
The Jordanian MP has on a number of occasions backed violence against Israel, including suicide bombings, and said the 1994 Israeli-Jordanian peace agreement "has brought nothing but disasters to the Jordanian people."
He has also called to "liberate our holy places from the plundering Jews" and said he is "a slave to whoever takes me to Palestine as a fighter," according to the Middle East Media Research Institute watchdog."
Following criticism, including from some of his constituents, Mr Hamilton later claimed that 'he was not aware of Yahya al-Saud's "appalling and Anti-Semitic remarks" when he met him and other Jordanian lawmakers in London'. One trusts that the same goes for the Jordanian MP's misogyny and history of brawling.
However a no less interesting part of this story concerns the background to that meeting. One of the photographs posted by al Saud shows him (second from the left) meeting the British MP (third from the left).
Second from the right in that photo is Zaher Birawi and the explanation for that is found in the Jordanian media. [emphasis added]
"MP Yahya Saud, who leads a parliamentary delegation to London, on Tuesday said that Jordan is paying the price of defending the Palestinian cause and safeguarding the Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem.
The delegation met with Palestinian and Arab community leaders and representatives of media institutions, with the presence of Jordanian Deputy Ambassador to the UK Daifallah Fayez, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.
During the meeting, which was organised by the European Communication Forum and the Palestinian British Forum, Saud said that Jordanians stand behind their Hashemite leadership in rejection of the so-called "deal of the century", adding that they sternly reject turning Jordan into an "alternative homeland" for Palestinians."
"MP Yahya al-Sa'ud told the meeting that all Jordanians stand united behind His Majesty King Abdullah II in his rejection of the so-called "deal of the century" and any proposals to make Jordan a substitute homeland for the Palestinians.
The meeting figured high on the Hashemite custodianship over Muslim and Christian shrines in occupied Jerusalem. The meeting was organized by the Europal Forum in cooperation with the Palestinian-British Forum."
While we do not know whether or not the Jordanian delegation similarly brought up the topic of "the Hashemite custodianship over Muslim and Christian shrines" in Jerusalem with the MPs and member of the House of Lords that they also met in London, it does seem highly likely.
Had the BBC reported this story it could have performed a useful public service by informing MPs and the public alike that, although Jordan has been trying for some time to promote the notion that it holds custodianship of Christian sites in Jerusalem, as recently documented by our colleagues at CAMERA Arabic that is not the case.
Another service the UK's public broadcaster could have provided by investigating this story would be to apprise British politicians such as Mr Hamilton of the background to the groups which apparently set up his meeting with the Jordanian MP about whom he now says he was under informed.
The link between the 'Palestinian Forum in Britain' – described as "one of the components of the Hamas support network in the UK" – and 'the EuroPal Forum' is Zaher Birawi. As previously noted on these pages in connection to his role in the organisation of the 'Great Return March':
"…in addition to playing a role in convoys and flotillas, Zaher Birawi was also involved in the organisation of the 2012 'Global March to Jerusalem' and was previously director of the UK-based Palestinian Return Centre (PRC) – an organisation banned in Israel due to its Hamas affiliations.
More recently Birawi has been active in the role of chairman of the London-based EuroPal Forum – an organisation which appears to have replaced the Council for European Palestinian Relations (also banned by Israel) which became defunct after its director – Arafat Shoukri , who was also involved with the Palestinian Return Center – left the UK for Qatar (and a job with Al Jazeera) around 2014."
The UK Labour party's connections to Hamas-linked organisations such as the 'Palestinian Forum in Britain' and the 'Palestinian Return Centre' (with which Fabian Hamilton met in December 2017) caused some British commentators to ask "when is Labour going to take action in relation to its own extremism problem?" long before Jeremy Corbyn was elected as party leader.
Some in-depth reporting on that meeting on Parliament premises between British politicians and the Jordanian delegation could have contributed significantly to the understanding of the BBC's funding public as to how the Labour party's antisemitism crisis was – and continues to be – incubated as well as how foreign interest groups with links to a terrorist organisation have access to their lawmakers.

BBC One's 'Panorama' on Labour antisemitism raises another issue

No BBC coverage of antisemitism at event organised by its most promoted NGO
An anti-Israel demonstration which took place in the heart of London on September 9th, ostensibly to protest a two-day visit to the UK by the Israeli prime minister, received no coverage on the BBC News website on the day that it took place.
That editorial decision is all the more interesting when one considers that the Palestine Solidarity Campaign – which organised the protest – and some of its supporting groups are not infrequently promoted on BBC platforms.
credit: Sussex Friends of Israel
The Palestine Solidarity Campaign was in fact the non-Israeli NGO most promoted in BBC Israel-related content during 2014. Only recently BBC audiences saw coverage of another event organised, among others, by the PSC, the Stop the War Coalition and Friends of Al Aqsa. FoAA's Ismail Patel has appeared on various BBC programmes, as have the spokesperson for 'War on Want' and representatives of FOSIS.
It would therefore have been relevant for audiences to be made aware of the fact that an event organised by groups to which the BBC frequently gives a platform was marked by hate speech, antisemitism and support for terrorism.
For example, as the Jewish News reports (link includes video):
"A pro-Palestinian protester waved a penny at pro-Israel demonstrators and shouted "you only understand money", before police placed handcuffs on him. […]
In the short clip filmed outside Whitehall by the Zionist Federation UK, he tells pro-Israel demonstrators: "Here have a penny.." adding "you only understand money" a number of times."
A woman identified as Pamela Hardyment felt free to advocate ethnic cleansing and genocide of Israeli Jews on camera.
"In another incident caught on camera, a […] woman tells Israel supporters that the Jews in Israel should "go into the sea, they're not coming here.
"We would absolutely march against Zionists coming here as refugees," added the woman, clad in a keffiyeh and carrying an umbrella bearing the word "Palestine."
"So you want another Holocaust?" the pro-Israel activist asks her. "I don't know what the Holocaust is," she replies.
"I want them out of Israel," the woman says later in the video, referring to Israeli Jews.
"You'll have to kill them all," says a voice off camera. "Well, so be it," she responds as she walks off."
The first mention of that demonstration came a whole day after it took place in an article titled "Netanyahu urges action to stop Middle East 'disintegrating'" which appeared on the BBC News website's UK and Middle East pages on September 10th. There readers were told that:
"Campaigners clashed ahead of the visit.
Protesters demanding Mr Netanyahu's arrest for alleged war crimes in Gaza clashed with pro-Israel activists on Wednesday."
Clearly that is not an accurate or comprehensive portrayal of the demonstration, so perhaps the BBC would like to share with its funding public the editorial considerations behind the airbrushing of antisemitism, hate speech and support for terrorist groups from the picture it presented to its audiences?

Q: Which unix flavor is the standard amazon EC2 linux image based on? I have an EC2 instance where I have bash & php 5.3 scripts running together (install / copy done by bash, web app via php of course), I need to port these files to a classic dedicated server.
My goal is to choose the "closest OS" to the standard amazon EC2 linux distribution, you know to minimize the work done in order to get these scripts to work on the dedicated box.
So, which unix flavor is the standard amazon EC2 linux image based on?
I recall reading somewhere that amazon linux AMI is based on redhat but I'm can't find the link anymore, amazon doesn't say anything about this on their website, I tried to google it but couldn't find anything useful

A: It is based on redhat, but at this point its taken its own path. While you can use redhat/centos repositories, you may from time to time, run into dependency conflicts.

We work hard every day to deliver high quality, accessible educational programmes, both full-time and part time, to young people and children from the tea estates surrounding the Maskeliya area of Central Province, Sri Lanka.
As part of our amazing volunteer programme, we offer volunteers the chance to live the life of a tea picker for half a day.Volunteers visit a local, private and ethical tea estate where they are allocated a tea picking lady as their mentor. They work alongside the tea pickers, developing their skills and understanding just how tough life is on the tea estates.After lining up with the workers to weigh their tea, volunteers are told how much they would have earned – this is, of course, shockingly little. The amount earned is added to their mentor's pay packet, a lovely bonus.If possible, our friend and the owner of the Kelaniya Tea Estate, Mr Balendran, will then organise a tour around the working tea factory (and maybe even a cup of tea!)Volunteers gain an incredible insight into life on the tea estate and fundraise to support the work of Tea Leaf Vision centre – a massive win/win.This fundraising initiative allows us to cover all costs associated with planning and managing our volunteer programme, whilst enabling volunteers to help and support us without paying through the nose for the opportunity.
