Heroes Catch-Up: What Gives, Tim Kring?
ArtsBlog by Molly TempletonPosted on 11/08/2007
I lose at blogging.
But Heroes has been losing at TV, to be honest. Uninteresting new characters, unconvincing romances and a scattered storyline are combining to break down my interest, which breaks my nerdy little heart a little. But all is not lost; the show's creator, Tim Kring, recently told Entertainment Weekly that he knows the show's been sucking (my word, not his).
What I think is wrong is a little different, though: It's just not been making sense. Just this week, we had Suddenly Powerful Matt! and Suddenly Stupid Mohinder! — two terrible tastes which do not go well together. A tiny bit of inspiration and Matt understands his powers? A tiny bit of manipulation and Mohinder changes sides, or at least appears to? Please tell me you're kidding.
At least one of the show's sour points has finally come to an end: Hiro is back from Japan. And he's not the only one! (Cue ominous music.) That plotline did nothing but bother me, endlessly, and not least because of its reliance on a princess what needs saving. There is far too much saving of women on your show, Mr. Kring.
Am I repeating myself? Probably. But it's tired, tired, tired stuff to watch over and over again.
What the show does well is build. Last season built toward what could have been a great finale, but then lost its momentum. This season, nothing much has built. Finally, now, we're getting the rebuilding of Peter, the mystery of Elle, the revelation about Adam Monroe (not an iota of surprise there for anyone who read any theorizing, but still fun. And it might be worth noting that now we have an Adam to go with the sadly deceased Eden). We haven't had to suffer through the Wonder Twins and their weak storyline for a bit, which is a relief; I've yet to see them add anything to the show. On the other hand, there's Monica, my new favorite character, who's apparently off training somewhere.
One wonders what will happen when Peter gets that power too.
Anyway, I'm discombobulated from too much to do, but I haven't forgotten about Heroes; I've just forgotten how to blog properly about it. And it's not given me much to work with, lately. I'm almost relieved that this "volume" of the story will come to an end with the December 3 episode, even though I'm worried that this means we won't get satisfactory answers for the mysteries already floating out there. If the entire story of the early generation is "Adam brought us together and then went bad," I'm going to throw things at the TV.

The cleaning technicians are equipped with the latest professional carpet cleaning equipment and solutions. We can clean any kind of carpet, including those made of silk, wool, viscose, cotton, suede, leather, acrylic, chenille, linen or organic fibre. The cleaning services are all fully insured, so you can entrust us to safely clean even the most expensive and delicate rug, including Oriental, antique, luxury, silk and other very delicate ones. We offer dry and steam deep carpet treatment. Upon request, we can deodorise the carpet and add Scotchgard protection against staining. We can also explain you how to clean wine stains off your carpet and keep it in pristine condition.
Our cleaning technicians are always punctual - they show up on time and bring the necessary equipment, tools and solutions necessary for an effective carpet care. They would then perform a very detailed and close inspection of the material and condition of your carpet. The objective is to assess the type of treatment it needs.
A professional vacuum cleaner is used to hoover off as much dust, residues, hairs and others from the carpet.
Then any stains which can be removed are pre-treated with the appropriate solutions, so are the high traffic and soiled areas.
Then it is time for the deep carpet cleaning. If steam cleaning is going to be performed, protective pads are placed under the water extraction machine and any furniture which cannot be removed from the carpet. All solutions used for pre-treatment and for cleaning are tested on a small and hidden area of the carpet for a possible negative reaction.
The right solution is mixed with water in the tank of the powerful steam cleaning machine and the carpet or rug is shampooed. Clean water is then poured into the tank and after it heats up, the rug is rinsed. During the steam cleaning nearly 95% of all the moisture is extracted back into the machine, so the drying time is only about 3 hours. We can provide air moving systems to enhance the drying process, upon request.
Dry cleaning is done with the suitable dry cleaning foam or powder which is applied and rubbed into the carpet or rug with a special machine. Then it is extracted with a powerful vacuum cleaner.
Get your carpet or rug looking great, colourful and clean once again – book our services now!

Video: Paris Jackson Didn't Like Wearing "Stupid Masks"
Stupid Celebrities
The late Michael Jackson's teenage daughter, Paris Jackson, will be appearing on the Ellen DeGeneres show on Thursday.
Paris talked about the masks her father had his children wear in public before his death in 2009.
Jackson addressed the issue while she was chatting with DeGeneres, admitting she thought the masks were "stupid", saying, "I'm like, 'This is stupid, why am I wearing a mask?'"
But Paris, now 13, admits she knew her late father was only trying to protect them.
She stated, "But I kind of realized the older I got, he only tried to protect us and he'd explain that to us too."
Michael's daughter also said it actually helped her when it was time for her to attend public school because no one recognized her.
She revealed, "I do have like a regular childhood. I mean, I'm treated the same," she said "When I came to [my new school] they didn't know who I was. I was like, 'Yes, I have a chance to be normal.'"

Сградата с двуглавия орел () е емблематична сграда в град Солун, Гърция.

Местоположение
Сградата е разположена в центъра на града на улица "Егнатия" № 34.

История и архитектура
Сградата е построена в 1925 година по проект от 1924 година на архитект Максимилиан Рубенс. Основната характеристика на сградата е извитият фронтон, който се оформя в най-високата точка, завършвайки със статуя на двуглав орел, символ на Византийската империя. Разрешението за строеж се отнася до сграда с мазе, партер с четири магазина и четири етажа, със седем офиса. В крайна сметка са построени само партер и два етажа.

Реализираният фронтон се различава от това на одобрените чертежи, според което фронтонът е разделен на три вертикални зони с най-широката и особено подчертана централната от тях. В крайна сметка фасадата е организирана в пет зони, разделени от шест фалшиви пиластра, като централната е особено подчертана, както поради по-малките си размери, така и поради извития фронтон, който се формира в горната точка.

Q: MLOps with TFX: How to ingest data when using Sequence from Keras? I am using a class called DataGenerator, that returns a tuple (data_array, label_array), follows the code:
from tensorflow.keras.utils import Sequence

class DataGenerator(Sequence):
    """
    path_data: the path of the csv files
    """
...

This class consumes from a list of .csv files, as shown in the following image:

Each file contains a column like this:
0.44
0.45
0.42
0.22
0.05
0.05
0.05
0.05
0.11
0.11
0.05
0.05
0.05
0.05
0.05
0.05

But these files are very huge and each one represents the data of each instance.
The problem is that I don't understand how to ingest the data through the tfx.v1.components.CsvExampleGen to use it inside the tfx pipeline...

*

*Is it possible to ingest the data using tfx or should I look at another alternative?

*Can I use CsvExampleGen to ingest from a bunch of files in a directory?

A: Data ingestion which consists of reading data from raw format and formatting it into a binary format suitable for ML (e.g. TFRecord). TFX provides a standard component called ExampleGen which is responsible for generating training examples from different data sources.
tfx.v1.components.CsvExampleGen component takes input_base args which expects an external directory containing the CSV files. You can even customize the input and output train/eval split ratio for ExampleGen as shown here.
Hope this helps. Thank you!

A: Are you saying you have five features, and that initially their shapes are (None, 1), and you need them to be a higher-dimensional feature of shape (None, 1, 5) when you are done?  In my mind, this is doable with tfx, you would need to concatenate your data in the Transform component using the right axis after reading with CsvExampleGen.  If you could clarify how DataGenerator gets the data, maybe there is a simpler solution.

Kit bragged about how well his son was doing at school. I didn't know that Petr was the one who did that.
I thought you'd sleep until noon. Drew's translation is too focused on the rhythm of English translation, and ignores the nuances of the original. The typical elements of a foreign culture are kept in the translated text. He has his office in town. Have you finished writing your composition? Play the jack of hearts. I'm worried about it. Ricky felt in his pocket for his keys. Mahesh plans to buy a new motorcycle. They escaped from prison.
I can't change that. Izumi knows all the tricks of the trade. How can you succeed? Raising a child costs a fortune. Do you have Guinness here? I can't take chances. That would be extremely delicate. I want to vote. You may take either half of the cake. How are you getting along with your new classmates?
Fear no more the boss's bark, nor all the union steward's rages. I got two for the price of one. As far as I know, he isn't lazy. I'm going to check on the kids. He knows a lot about animals.

How long will the procedure take? Food arrived on the table. Let's ask Glenn when he thinks he'll arrive. All you have to do is wait and see. Tait asked Leung to sit down for a while. He wanted to go to the beach. In spite of the depression, the prices of commodities are still high. What about you, honey? I've never been there, but I think it's past that traffic light.

Carpal Tunnel Surgery? Ouch! Is Surgery for Carpal Tunnel in your future?
Deciding whether or not to have Carpal Tunnel Surgery is a complex process.
It's a matter of finding and knowing the right information.
And really, you have to trust someone.
We trust our doctors to know best. And sometimes that works out great.
If I ever get into a car accident, without a doubt I want a doctor and hospital staff to take care of me.
If I had Carpal Tunnel Syndrome......not so much. Why get an invasive, potentially dangerous surgery when there are other safer, more reliable methods?
That just one motivation I've had to learn how to fix CTS.
I've personally had all the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Symptoms before, multiple times, and I've worked with thousands of wrists suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome over the last decade.
I can quickly make my own symptoms vanish if I get them, but more importantly, I have yet to work with anyone whose wrists have not improved significantly, even in EXTREME cases.
Even people that were still suffering from pain -after- having surgery got better.
Twice I have experimented with doing a lot of hands-on massage and letting my hands and wrists get really bad. Numbness and tingling, pain in my fingers, wrist, and, forearms, elbow, and shoulders.
With some trial and error the first time, and then quickly the second time, I was able to get myself totally out of pain and back to having a happy, healthy structure.
And of course I've worked with a lot of clients in my office, and reducing symptoms is fast and easy. It's just a matter of opening up too tight and constrictive tissue in the right places.
It's definitely not the only option.
It IS the 'final' option that doctors will suggest after their other suggestions of rest, anti-inflammatories, splints and braces, corticosteroid shots, etc, all failed.
If they were wrong about those, why would you expect them to be right about surgery?
You should definitely Quiz Your Doctor when having the conversation about whether to have carpal tunnel surgery or not.
Can I fix my Carpal Tunnel Syndrom without surgery?
-IF- you take the right steps.
Granted, you have probably been hurting longer than I was, and the longer you are in pain, the more established the Carpal Tunnel Dynamic becomes.
Having said that, it is NEVER to late to reverse Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
I've worked with people that have had CTS for decades, whose doctors tell them they have 'permanent' nerve damage.
In one session, their symptoms are greatly reduced. In a couple more, gone. Sometimes the numbness takes a while to fade, but for the most part, it's just a matter of taking the foot off the hose.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Surgery would have hurt me more than it would have helped me.
Admittedly I'm biased because I only work with people whose surgery didn't go well or reduce their symptoms.
You can definitely reverse Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, but you can -never- reverse Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Surgery.
If the surgeon hits a nerve, that's a one way street.
If you get surgery but all your symptoms are from Vitamin B6 insufficiency, then that's a lot of trauma from a surgery that has zero chance of helping.
Let's just assume that you have gotten a Carpal Tunnel Diagnosis. You aren't officially a candidate for surgery without one of those.
If the source of the problem, if the ONLY point of problem, was at the carpal tunnel, then I would say "Yes, go ahead and get carpal tunnel surgery, no reason not to."
Unfortunately, that is not how Carpal Tunnel Syndrome works.
Unless you are one of the statistical anomalies that has a genetically malformed or a just plain too-small-for-no-reason carpal tunnel, you have an entire Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Dynamic of tightness, shortness, and pain from your upper back and neck all the way to your fingertips.
Some wrist pain can be caused by issues like tumors, diabetes, water retention from being pregnant, bruising wounds to the wrist area, etc.
Since you are almost certainly a person with 'normal' physical anatomy of the wrist, it is good to ask yourself a question.
"If the connective tissue around my carpal tunnel is not the Source of my problem, how will having surgery on it help?"
It may help for a little while, as it will likely, temporarily, release immediate pressure on the median nerve.
Some people do get long term benefit, but the more you look into it, the iffier it gets. I've never heard of anybody with a 'successful' surgery be back to a totally pain free, pre-surgery state of wrist health.
Surgery does not address the rest of the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Dynamic. It does not alter your posture, does not free up other sites of compression of the nerves that feed the arm and hand, does not reduce muscle tightness in the overall limb structure.
It does not get rid of Inflammation.
It does not reverse the Pain Causing Dynamic.
In fact, surgery makes it all worse.
When the body is cut, the body heals itself by laying down scar tissue and 'knitting' the structure back together. Meaning, it pulls everything together to make a tight seal.
So let's think about that and how it relates to carpal tunnel release surgery for a moment..... If the skin, muscle, and connective tissue of the wrist is 'too tight' and compressing the median nerve in the carpal tunnel, and a surgeon goes in and slices through that tissue, what is going to happen?
Scar tissue is going to lay down, and pull all the affected tissue together, tightly.
And the body is going to react to the injury that Carpal Tunnel Surgery causes. The way it does this is by making you hurt more (inflammation) and tightening muscles to protect you (guarding).
Ultimately things will continue their path of getting tight and problematic again.
Here's just one example of a common result of carpal tunnel surgery: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome surgery april 2010 wonderful at first now severe pain and burning.
Thus, it's fun to look at statistics.
The pro-surgery camp will give you statistics that surgery is -very- effective for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
The anti-surgery camp will give you statistics that show it to be -very- not effective.
Take a look for yourself at a small collection of Carpal Tunnel Surgery Statistics and studies.
Regardless, surgery is (well, it should be ) a last ditch activity, reserved for life and limb threatening situations.
That depends on whether you want to get Carpal Tunnel Surgery or not.
It also depends on the information you find and whether it has led you to discover a better option.
If you are facing surgery and you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, I could prove to you in 15 minutes that there is an effective alternative.
If we aren't in the same area, you may want to experiment.
Try what I suggest on these web pages and see how much that takes the pain away.
If you actually do it as I describe, you will get results.
In some severe cases surgery is a good and necessary thing.
In my experience, the vast majority of cases can be dealt with without surgery (if you know what to do or are working with somebody that has the skills to 'fix' the problem).
Here are some common sense reasons arguing against getting surgery 'just because' the doctor advises.
As I said previously, sometimes surgery is a good and necessary thing.
There's probabably a few other scenarios, like a cancerous growth, but for the most part, that's it.
There ARE effective alternatives that actually deal with your wrist pain.
You may have noticed that I'm a bit biased against Carpal Tunnel Surgery. I'm actually not.
CTS is NEVER as simple as 'that one little spot right there is too tight for no particular reason'.
Tere are always one or more reasons responsible for compression, and cutting on that one spot doesn't help those reasons.
If you have already had surgery, or are about to and are committed to going through with it, then you may want to learn about how to make Carpal Tunnel Surgery Recovery as fast and complete as possible.

"GETTING THE MOST OUT
OF BUSINESS" FEW days ago the writer received a copy of a new book,
and on the fly-leaf the author had written: "If you had not believed in and encouraged me to give the time and thought and energy to it, this book, good or bad, would never have been made. So, godfather, on your head be the result."
The title of the book is "Getting the Most Out of Business," and was written by E. St. Elmo Lewis, formerly advertizing manager of the Burroughs Adding Machine Company, and now vicepresident and general manager of the Art Metal Construction Company. At the writer's urgent solicitation, Mr. Lewis wrote a series of twelve articles for The Caxton Magazine, under the title of "The New Gospel of Efficiency," and it is this series of articles, carefully rewritten, with considerable new material added, which makes the present completed volume.
Mr. Lewis possesses one of the most constructive minds in the business world to-day, and from beginning to end this book is replete with keen analytical observations and practical application of the scientific methods to business practice. While he is a university-trained man, he has been in business long enough to learn the difference between theory and practice, and he has written a book to thoughtful men, young and old, to whom life holds some problems worthy of careful study and even concentrated consideration. There is not a dull or uninteresting page in the whole book, altho there are 483 pages.

The following day she resumed her subject, by way of review.
"What are the three things necessary to a civilized man?" she asked.
Several of the children remembered food and clothing, but the third requisite seemed to have entirely escaped their recollection. Finally, after the question had been repeated two or three times, one of the boys, the largest one in the class, raised his hand, triumphantly:
"Well, James, you may tell us." "A wife."
The Soul-Saving Time Limit. Here is a story told for professional platform people by The Lyccun World:
One day a visiting clergyman, who was to preach before the students at Yale University, asked how long he was expected to talk.
"Of course, we put no time limit upon you," replied President Hadley, with his usual pump-handle gesture, "but we have a feeling here at Yale—that no souls—are saved-after the first twenty minutes."
The Landlord's Own Plan. "Well, yes," confessed the landlord of the Periwinkle Tavern, to Tom Morgan, in the Woman's Home Companion, "it is an idea of my own, painting a purple stripe all around the hotel at the top of the first story. You see, there wouldn't otherwise be anything to distinguish this particular inn from thousands of others. As it is, a good many people drop in to point out to me that such a decoration is not in good taste, or to urge some other color, or something that-a-way. And they usually remain long enough to spend a dollar or two before I am thoroly convinced.
"Persons with literary talent, and occasionally à real writer, come along and suspect me of being a character, and board here while studying me. As a matter of fact, a drummer gave me a can of purple paint out of his samples, and I didn't know what else to do with it."
Concealing a Vacuum.
Not Even Expected. There is a certain veteran hotel clerk of a certain small hotel up in the Maine woods who is noted for two things—his peculiar choice of words and the fact that every day for thirty-odd years he has inscribed on the top lines of his register the principal items of current news in the village.
Not long ago a New York editor, who chanced to be stopping at the hotel, so The Saturday Evening Post says, borrowed the register long enough to copy down the following entries :
Some people might say that the Birmingham Age-Herald suggests a cruel suspicion in this colloquy:
"Professor Diggs likes to use high-sounding phrases."
"A mere affectation, no doubt."
"No. I rather think he uses such phrases because he's afraid that if people knew what he was talking about they'd know he didn't know what he was talking about.".
"Monday, October 12. Yesterday, while percolating round the milldam, George Bates fell into the water; and, owing to his wife's failing to make him change his wet clothes, he is now threatened with pneumonia."
"Tuesday, October 13. George Bates is rapidly becoming no better.
"Last right his wife sent for Doctor Linden, who looked him over, collected two dollars, and departed, looking very unsatisfactory."
"Wednesday, October 14. George's symptoms are rapidly eventuating into fatalities."
"Thursday, October 15. At seven-thirty this morning our fellow townsman, George Bates, went to his Maker, entirely uncalled for."
Not Their Style. The young man who eats all 'round the circuit ran against this quick-lunch incident recently. It probably happened in Philadelphia, as the Ledger tells the story.
A fastidious person made his way charily into the place. A tumbler of murky water was thumped before him by the young woman on the other side of the counter.
"What's yours?"
"Coffee and rolls, my girl."
One of those iron-heavy, quarter-inch thick mugs of coffee was pushed over the counter. The fastidious person seemed dazed. He looked under the mug and over it.
"But where is the saucer?" he queried. "We don't give no

Smokeless Firebox Boilers Cut Coal Costs
Deferred Devotion. After a period of six months of widowhood, Bridget consented to again enter the married state. Some weeks after she was led to the altar, says London Tit-Bits, her old mistress met her in the street dressed in the deepest mourning:
"Why, Bridget," she exclaimed, "for whom are you in black?"
"For poor Barney, my first husband, mum. When he died Oi was that poor Oi couldn't afford to buy mourning, but Oi said if iver Oi could Oi would, and me new man, Tim, is as generous as a lord."
In a 21 apartment building at 51st Street and Forrestville Avenue, Chicago, a Kewanee Smokeless Firebox Boiler saves $883.20 yearly in the fuel bill—this saving being figured from the record of coal costs during two years. I This is the way the saving was figured: T The Kewanee Smokeless burned during December 1914 a daily average of 1400 pounds of coal, costing $4.50 per ton. A coal cost of $3.15 daily or $756.00 for the entire heating season of 240 days.
Another Boiler, which was formerly used in the same building for heating 15 of the present 21 apartments, used during December 1913, 2170 pounds of coal daily, costing $4.50 per ton. A coal cost of $4.88 daily. Figuring that the other make of boiler would heat the 21 apartments at the same proportionate cost, the cost of heating the 21 apartments with the other boiler would be $6.83 daily-or $1,639.20 for the heating scason of 240 days. a This shows a saving with the Kewanee Smokeless of $3.68 per day or $883.20 in a heating season of 240 days.

"Oh, when he's about three, Ethel." "Why can't he talk now, father?"
"He is only a baby yet, Ethel. Babies can't talk."
"Oh, yes, they can, father," insisted Ethel, "for Job could talk when he was a baby."
"Job! What do you mean?"
"Yes," said Ethel. "Nurse was telling us to-day that it says in the Bible : Job cursed the day he was born.'

Alfredo Claudino Baptist Griffin Read (nacido el 6 de octubre de 1957 en [Santo Domingo]]) es un ex shortstop dominicano que jugó en las Grandes Ligas de Béisbol militando en cuatro equipos desde 1976 hasta 1993. Actualmente es el entrenador de primera base de Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

Primeros años
Griffin nació el 6 de octubre de 1957 en Villa Francisca, Santo Domingo. Hijo de Alfredo Read y Mery Griffin. La familia de Griffin es de las islas Saint Kitts and Nevis y Tórtola, sus abuelos emigraron a la República Dominicana a principios del siglo XX. Cuando Griffin tenía 6 años, su familia se trasladó al Ingenio Consuelo en San Pedro de Macorís donde pasó gran parte de su juventud.

Carrera
Griffin comenzó su carrera como miembro de los Indios de Cleveland, quienes lo firmaron como amateur en 1973. El 5 de diciembre de 1978, antes de haber jugado una temporada completa en las Grandes Ligas, fue traspasado, junto con Phil Lansford, a los Azulejos de Toronto por Víctor Cruz. Griffin tuvo un impacto inmediato, compartiendo el premio novato del año de la Liga Americana en 1979 con John Castino.

En 1984, fue seleccionado para pertenecer al equipo en el Juego de Estrellas. Griffin fue valorado mucho más por su guante que por su bate. Mike Scioscia lo llamó "el Ozzie Smith de la Liga Americana." Un torpedero estable, todos los días, pasó seis años con los Azulejos, jugando en 392 partidos consecutivos. Fue cambiado después de la temporada 1984 a Oakland, donde, a pesar de su renuencia a elaborar bases por bolas y una tendencia a ser demasiado agresivo en las bases, comenzó a aprovechar la promesa de ofensiva que mostró en 1980 cuando estableció un récord de en la Liga Americana de más triples para un bateador ambidiestro liderando la liga con 15. También tuvo algunas temporadas muy malas: en 1990, cuando se convirtió en el último jugador en terminar último en la Liga Nacional, de los que calificaron para el título de bateo, en promedio de bateo, porcentaje de embasarse y promedio de slugging.

Después de establecer marcas personales en la mayoría de categorías ofensivas con los Atléticos, Griffin fue traspasado a los Dodgers por Bob Welch antes de la temporada 1988 en un movimiento que ayudó a los dos equipos ir al campeonato de la liga. Una bola rápida de Dwight Gooden rompió su mano en mayo de 1988, y estuvo incapacitado durante gran parte de 1988 y 1989.

Griffin regresó a Toronto en 1992 y fue un contribuidor para que los Azulejos ganaran el primero de dos campeonatos consecutivos. Su carrera llegó a su fin momentos más tarde cuando Joe Carter bateó un jonrón para ganar la Serie Mundial en favor de Toronto.

Otras ocupaciones dentro del béisbol
Actualmente, Griffin es el entrenador de primera base de Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim en las Grandes Ligas, y también lo fue de las Estrellas Orientales en su natal República Dominicana, además fue gerente general de las Estrellas 2007-2008.

Estadísticas

Trivia
Durante el juego en el que su racha de juegos consecutivos terminó, Griffin anotó la carrera ganadora.
Fue bateador emergente por Kirk Gibson en el Juego 1 de la Serie Mundial de 1998 en el que conectó el jonrón ganador, cinco años más tarde estaba en el círculo de espera cuando Joe Carter conectó el jonrón de la victoria en la Serie Mundial de 1993.
Tiene uno de los apodos más famosos utilizados por el presentador de ESPN Chris Berman: "Fettucini Alfredo Griffin."
¿Ha estado en el equipo perdedor en tres juegos perfectos, con los Azulejos  de Toronto en 1981, con los Dodgers de Los Angeles en 1988, y de nuevo con los Dodgers en 1991.

Q: I Need to disable prevButton when the page loads React I want to disabled the prev button when count = 0; which is by default when count is assigned
I tried to use disabled attr and then remove it using the if condition but is not being disabled by default.
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import $ from 'jquery';
// let count = 0;
function Slides({slides}) {

    let [count, setCount] = useState(0);

    // let [isDisabled, setisDisabled] = useState(false);

    if(count >= (slides.length - 1)){
        $('.nextButton').attr("disabled", true);
    } else {
        $('.nextButton').attr("disabled", false);
    }

    if(count <= 0){
        $('.prevButton').attr("disabled", true);
    } else {
        $('.prevButton').attr("disabled", false);
    }

    if(count < 1){
        $('.prevButton').attr("disabled", true);
    }

    return (

                <button data-testid="button-restart" onClick={() => setCount(count = 0)} className="small outlined">Restart</button>

A: You no need to use jquery here. Create one more state for tracking disabled state and use that in the template for setting the attribute.
disabled={isDisabled}
Move all the condition to useEffect and give count as a dependency.
import React, { useEffect, useState } from 'react';

// let count = 0;
function Slides({slides}) {

    const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
    const [isDisabled, setisDisabled] = useState(true);

        if(count >= (slides.length - 1)){
            setisDisabled(true);
        } else {
            setisDisabled(false);
        }

        if(count <= 0){
            setisDisabled(true);
        } else {
            setisDisabled(false);
        }

        if(count < 1){
            setisDisabled(true);

A person, albeit a man, states his case.
posted in Archive	on February 2, 2010 by	Ryan
(Guest post by Tama Boyle.)
The recently published "New Zealand Law Style Guide"* states at paragraph 1.1.1(a):
Avoid gender-specific language unless it is necessary. In particular, avoid terms such as "man", "men" or "mankind" to refer to people in general. Do not use "he" or "his" to describe people who may be male or female or male pronouns to describe grounds that may be made up of both men and women.
"Gender-specific language" are weasel words like "non-judgmental" or "work-place change consultant". Were I to follow this prompt literally I would have to say, "My mum made up its mind," or "Helen Clark gave me Helen Clark's phone number". Even "mum" and "Helen Clark" are gender-specific. I would have to change it to "Humanoid former Prime Minister" and "parent".
I agree with the idea that chestnuts such as "To boldly go where no man has gone before" and "Since the dawn of time, man has been trying to copulate with ice cream" should be axed. (Star Trek: TNG, despite keeping the split infinitive, changed the voice over to "no one" from "no man".)
Pronouns — which are, according to Calvin and Hobbes, nouns that have lost their amateur status — are another matter.
Take two examples:
The alligator called his broker; and
The insurgent asked that a beard be delivered to him
In the first example, the possessive pronoun "him" replaces "the alligator" in the subordinate clause. In the second, "the insurgent" becomes an object of a preposition and becomes the definite pronoun "him". The argument against "gender-specific language" is, I think, that it creates an image in the mind of the reader.
The alligator is therefore a male. So is the insurgent — or judge, doctor, ventriloquist or taxidermist. I do not find that convincing because it fails to understand English and how it functions. "Alligator" and "insurgent" are nouns. In the sentences above, they function as subjects. They are subjects without gender. Traditionally, the pronouns that replace them are male. This does not create a mythical male alligator or insurgent. They are just words with semantic function.
It's just a rule.
Ok, it's an arbitrary rule, I admit.
But language is arbitrary. One never learns a language in trying to learn its rules. I think that when I adhere to a rule I'm showing respect toward something. In this case, that something is English. It is arbitrary that I wear pants in restaurants and that I hold doors for people. No big deal if I go half naked to a restaurant. Most people can open their own doors.
But, of course, I do wear pants and I hold doors. I do it because I am showing respect for dining and certain norms of social interaction.
What of other languages? Why is a table in French feminine? Why is the wall masculine? Better yet, why is the word "la victime" feminine but the word "le problème" masculine? Those examples are loaded gender-specifications. Why is language like this? It just is! Perhaps the Proto-Indo-Europeans held a summit. Perhaps it was part of the truce between cro-magnons and neanderthals.
Maybe it's just arbitrary.
What I find bad about this non-gender trend is that sentences such as "The alligator called their broker" is illogical. The alligator is singular. Why is it taking a plural pronoun? That's like saying "He go to the store" or "We has an egg salad sandwich".
The maths are faulty.
Our mythical male alligator and insurgent are causing our language to go weird.
And when the going gets weird, the weird turn pronoun.
grammar, language, political correctness

45 years of Chupke Chupke: 5 reasons why Hrishikesh Mukherjee's film is a classic
While tastes in comedy change with every generation, the popularity of Chupke Chupke, starring Dharmendra, Sharmila Tagore and Om Prakash, has endured over the years.
Mumbai - 11 Apr 2020 18:14 IST
Suyog Zore
Chupke Chupke (1975) by Hrishikesh Mukherjee is considered a comedy classic today even though the film was actually a remake of the Bengali hit Chhadmabeshi (1971), directed by Agradoot, a name used by a collective of filmmakers, and starring Uttam Kumar.
Chupke Chupke's plot is basically a practical joke pulled off by Dharmendra's character on his wife's brother-in-law. Dr Parimal Tripathi (Dharmendra), a botanist and professor, falls in love with Sulekha (Tagore) and they soon get married. Sulekha is in awe of her brother-in-law Raghav (Om Prakash) and can't stop praising him and his intelligence. Raghav also brags that it is impossible to fool him.
Irritated, Parimal decides to prove to Sulekha that her brother-in-law is not as smart as she, or he, thinks. To prove this, Parimal designs an elaborate plan and enlists the help of his wife and his friend, professor Sukumar Sinha (Amitabh Bachchan). Chupke Chupke not only received critical acclaim, but also became a hit at the box office, going on to become an eternal favourite with film fans.
On the 45th anniversary of the film's release (Chupke Chupke hit the screens on 11 April 1975), we look at five reasons why Chupke Chupke remains an undisputed comedy classic.
1. Dharmendra's comic chops
Dharmendra, the one-time He-Man of 'Bollywood', was better known for his macho roles in films like Sholay (1975) and Dharam Veer (1977). Because of the popularity of these films, Dharmendra got typecast as an action hero. Though he usually also had a few comic scenes in these movies, they were not something people remembered him by and the action scenes and angry dialogues would win out each time.
Now and then Dharmendra attempted to prove his versatility by doing romantic or comic roles. In Chupke Chupke, Dharmendra got a golden opportunity to prove that he was no slouch at comedy and that he possessed impeccable comic timing.
From the very first scene, where the star dresses up as an old caretaker to welcome the female biology students in class, to his banter with comedy veteran Om Prakash in pure Hindi, Dharmendra makes it impossible for the viewer to take her gaze off him. His act as the loudmouthed driver Pyaremohan Ilahabadi who hates the English language will leave you in splits. This was arguably one of the best performances pf Dharmendra's long acting career. Sadly, he was not even nominated for a Filmfare award for this terrific show. (Sanjeev Kumar won the Best Actor award that year for Gulzar's Aandhi while the Best Comic Actor award went to Deven Varma for Chori Mera Kaam.)
2. Outstanding supporting cast and simple yet funny dialogues
You can sometimes get away with not-so-good artistes in action or horror films. But in a comedy, it is imperative that along with the lead artistes the supporting cast be equally good. No matter how hilarious the script is, if an actor can't land a joke, the film will fall flat.
Hrishi-da assembled some brilliant artistes for the supporting cast of Chupke Chupke. Amitabh Bachchan is just as hilarious as Dharmendra's friend, Sukumar Sinha. Though he gets very little screen time, he makes an impact even in that period with an outstanding performance. Also, Dharmendra and Bachchan have really good chemistry in whatever little screentime they share (something fans saw the same year in Ramesh Sippy's blockbuster Sholay as well).
The song 'Sa Re Gaa Maa' is testament to the fact. But the scene-stealer is the veteran Om Prakash. He completely owns the role of Raghav who is frustrated with Pyaremohan's constant bickering in pure Hindi. He is also worried about the growing fondness between Sulekha and Pyaremohan. Dharmendra's scenes with Om Prakash are the highlight of the film. Though Sharmila Tagore and Jaya Bachchan don't get much screen time as compared to their male counterparts, they make up for it with their performances.
3. Subtle comedy
Today we have become used to over-the-top comedies which rely more on double entendre and improbable situations. The Hindi film industry churns out a lot of comedies every year, but few, if any, leave a lasting impact. Chupke Chupke was the antithesis of everything we get to see in films today in the name of comedy.
The film had simple dialogues but the situation itself is funny and the way the artistes delivers those dialogues makes the film a hilarious affair. Despite being two hours 30 minutes long, Chupke Chupke does not bore you even for a minute and the lion's share of the credit goes to the simple yet engaging screenplay by Gulzar and DN Mukherjee.
Generally, comedy films don't enjoy the status of a classic. One of the main reasons is that audience tastes for comedy change over time. What we find funny today may not be so 20 years later. Also, comedy is subjective. Despite these odds, Chupke Chupke enjoys the status of a classic.
4. Memorable music
Music doesn't normally play a big part in comedy films. But over four decades ago, music was an essential part of any film irrespective of the genre.
Staying true to the norm, Mukherjee's Chupke Chupke had four songs. All four were composed by legendary music composer SD Burman with lyrics by the one and only Gulzar. SD Burman was known for his melodious tunes and here, too, the maestro does not disappoint the listener. All the songs are good, but 'Sa Re Gaa Maa' and 'Ab Ke Sajan Sawan Mein' leave a lasting impact.
'Sa Re Gaa Maa', picturized on Dharmendra and Amitabh Bachchan, is a treat to listeners as the song has been sung by two legendary singers, Mohammed Rafi and Kishor Kumar. Despite being the shortest song in the album it leaves the most impact. Dharmendra and Bachchan's antics add to the fun factor of the song.
'Ab Ke Sajan Saawan Mein', sung by Lata Mangeshkar, is another winner from the film. The romantic number remains etched in the memory of music lovers.
5. Hrishikesh Mukherjee
The final and probably most important factor for Chupke Chupke becoming a classic is none other than its director. Hrishikesh Mukherjee is best known for his slice-of-life comedies and over the years made several successful films on some very trivial issues that ordinary people face. There were simplicity and warmth in his films which was rare in those days when films with action and drama were the biggest money spinners.
Chupke Chupke had all the qualities of Mukherjee's films along with two of the biggest stars of that time. Again, the filmmaker was known to cast big stars known for their larger-than-life images and present them as everyday human beings. In Chupke Chupke, he cast Dharmendra and Amitabh Bachchan, the former who was at the peak of his career and the latter who was rising fast to become Hindi cinema's superstar.
Despite casting Dharmendra as the hero of the film, Mukherjee does not give him any of the heroic tropes that were common in those times. Parimal Tripathi is a professor, that too of ghaas-phus (plants and herbs), as the old caretaker says repeatedly in the film, and just a simple guy like the rest of us. That's why we connect with the story more.

There's not much to see right now, PF, they are all tucked in for the night safe and sound under their momma.
I think I have IMSCD...I Must See Chickies Disorder...oh well, my legs were getting tired anyway.
Harriet: Have you seen them?
Agatha: Nope, she's hiding them good.
Penny: Me either, we're going to have to do an intervention.
To update everyone--there are now SEVEN little chickies. Two are in the house under a lightbulb. They are younger than the other 5 and were not yet up on their feet, and one was a bit cold, so I brought them in about an hour ago. I hear peeping! They are also both up toddering around the box...if I didn't know better, I'd think they'd had a nip or two of moonshine. I'll keep them in today, put them back out with momma this evening. I thought one was dead/dieing...but it's up and peeping away, we shall see. The smaller one wasn't there yesterday--it is hard to take a pic of chicks in a box with a light on them.
Now there are 8--don't know if #8 will make it or not. There are two more "pipping." We shall see. I took the blond one out to its momma around 4:00. I'm about to take the "buff" one out and put it under its momma for the night. The latest one I have on a "homemade" heating pad and under a lamp, where it will stay for the night. Gosh--this being a chicken midwife is taxing!
Gosh--this being a chicken midwife is taxing!
I hope they all make it!
#7 and #8 taking a nap together. #8 is the dark one. It is moving around quite a bit when it is awake...I'm not going to get too excited, yet.
Looking ahead, ya mean big bro will not even let you sell eggs at a farm stand?
Not allowed--but I have lots of friends lining up for FRESH eggs.
I'll take a dozen. To hell with the cholesterol.
Addie--free-range eggs have less cholesterol than battery-farm eggs. I want to say 1/3 less...and it is dietary cholesterol in eggs, not serum (blood) cholesterol. And they are sooooo good! Of course, I have very happy chickens, and that might contribute to the quality of the eggs...oh, I could market them as "happy chicken eggs!"
BTW, Miss Broodie is on mat. leave, so she is exempt from the egg production line. No stew pot threats for Miss Broodie.
