US Venue Spotlight – Nashville, TN – Mercy Lounge, Cannery Ballrom, and The High Watt
As the entire Independent Venue team waits for July to roll around, we will tell you a little more about the venues in our inaugural American lineup–and what better place to start than in Music City?
Mercy Lounge is a true music powerhouse in Nashville with three independent venues under one roof. Situated in the historic Cannery building, Mercy Lounge and its sister venues, Cannery Ballrom and The High Watt, are as loved by locals as they are nationally renowned.
Since its opening in 2003, Mercy Lounge has hosted household names like John Fogerty, Katy Perry, Snoop Dogg, and The White Stripes all while introducing Nashville to a host of upcoming talent.
The Cannery building itself has housed live music since the late 1970s and it is needless to say that we could not be more thrilled that Mercy Lounge will host a show with Western Medication at The High Watt as part of Independent Venue Week on Friday July 13 (find tickets HERE).

"State-of-the-Art Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services"
The San Francisco VA Epilepsy Center was established in 1997 to provide specialized care to veterans suffering from seizures. Since that time, the Epilepsy Center has continued to grow and flourish, providing more advanced care to greater numbers of patients in Northern California and throughout the entire nation. In 2002, the Center was named as one of four national centers of excellence, and in 2008, was officially designated as a regional Epilepsy Center of Excellence through a congressional act.
Together with our colleagues at VA medical centers in Los Angeles, Houston, and Albuquerque, we seek to provide the best possible epilepsy care to veterans throughout the southwestern region of the United States. Our goal is to deliver the highest quality of ongoing medical care to veterans suffering from epilepsy. We also seek to promote outreach and educational efforts for both patients and their physicians in order to further the understanding of this chronic condition.
At our San Francisco Center, we offer a range of services in both the outpatient and inpatient realms. We hold weekly outpatient epilepsy clinics with a staff of three neurology specialists. From these clinics, patients can be directed to the most advanced testing methods for the evaluation of epilepsy, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electroencephalography (EEG), and video monitoring. For those patients that require more intensive testing or attention, we also run an inpatient unit for examining certain seizure types more closely or changing medications in a monitored setting.
If you are a veteran with seizures and are interested in visiting our Epilepsy Center in San Francisco, please communicate with your local primary care physician. This doctor will be able to determine if you might benefit from visiting us, and can help set up a visit. If you are already a patient at our center, you may call our hotline at 415-379-5599.


It used to be that buying art was an exhausting and time-consuming activity. You need to go to a gallery, check out its limited collection, and hope to find an artwork that suits your taste and style. If you don't find anything interesting enough, you drive to another one and again check out the works one by one. Then if it doesn't work out, you go to yet another gallery and repeat the same process. Sometimes, not being able to find the perfect painting for your home brings you to, just settle on the next best thing.
However, with the advent of the Internet, you now have the option of buying art online. Not only is buying artworks online easier and more convenient, but you are also not limited by time and space. This means that gone are the days when you can only get artworks from your local area. With online art galleries, you can now get the artwork that suits your personality and your taste wherever it is in the world. This gives you an almost unlimited selection of artworks to choose from.
However, buying art is both a personal and financial decision. While your main purpose is to beautify your room, artworks – like jewelry and fine wine – can appreciate over time. The artwork that cost you only $500 could actually hit $5,000 in a few years, especially if the artist has become more notable and his works more in-demand.
Here are the top 5 things to remember on how to make the best out of buying paintings online.
5. Consider your design philosophies. You may find a beautiful oil painting, but be sure that it goes well with everything in your display space. If the only place where you could hang a large piece of artwork is your living room, which is the most common area in your house, then make sure that the artwork is tasteful and wholesome. A racy subject on a living room artwork would be very uncomfortable to discuss with in-laws and certain guests. Also, if you adhere to a minimalist design philosophy, loud and awry paintings might stick out like a sore thumb.
4. Know your budget. While paintings may be considered investments, it still makes good sense to work within a budget. How much are you willing to spend on a particular artwork? Works done by an up-and-coming artist could easily fetch $1000, and as the reputation of the artist gets solidified, the higher his or her artworks would sell.
3. Do some research on the piece you want to buy. Read more about the painting – like the media used, the style, the inspiration, and the meaning – as well as about the artist. This is especially true if you want to own a painting that will appreciate in the coming years. Is the artist established? Is the artist emerging? You could get an idea from the artist's body of work, his affiliations and the exhibits he or she has participated in. Moreover, knowing all these things could help you preserve your paintings better. For example, spotlights have been known to damage oil painting, or moisture can severely devalue watercolors. Do not be afraid to ask the experts or art consultants you come in contact with. They will be able to give you an advice on your potential art purchase.
2. Make sure the artwork is authentic. You should be able to secure a certificate that attests to the authenticity of the artwork. By authentic, we mean that a certain artwork was really done by a certain artist, and not just some replica.
1. Know your gallery or seller. Once you have decided on the perfect artwork or painting for you, then start doing your research online regarding the gallery or vendor. Look for forums and blogs that made mention of your selected gallery, and see if reviews about it are good and positive. Make sure not one post, comment or testimonial by a previous customer is negative or is a report of some sort of scam by that gallery. See if it is trustworthy and if other people actually recommend using it. Also, if available, read what the press has to say about that gallery. If you don't find anything about the gallery, then maybe you should hold off your purchase until some sort of feedback is available. It is not advisable for you to give your credit card details without first being certain that your money is safe with that gallery. Otherwise, it would be difficult to recover whatever you have lost. Furthermore, check out a gallery's shopping cart and see if it provides easy and secure purchases online and if shipping terms and conditions are favorable to you.


Charles Anderson is the president and founder of Golden Fuel Systems. Andrew was born to a family of anglers, ranches and land surveyors in Alaska. He was mostly home schooled and never went to college and the frontier lifestyle of his family taught him self-reliance.
He was named as "Danger" and that become even clearer that night when the eatery's owner pulled gun on him. As he was spotted a bin full of used oil as he drove past the restaurant in his Ford truck. He greased the fuel tank with the waste cooking oil, which worked like diesel.
Andrew and his friends had equipments that ran on diesel fuel. It was that time when the costs of diesel started to rise and then he found an alternative that led to his current profession of biodiesel fuel. It is made from discarded cooking oil that has been cleaned up and processed up to reuse as either home heating or diesel to run. He used this biodiesel to run machines, such as cars, trucks and other heavy machineries.
He was a creative person and whenever his boat or tractor broke, he replaces it with whatever material was in hand. He learns many things from his past life and he learns some diesel engine tinkering with his grandfather.
He was the person who converted his first car, a Toyota diesel pickup truck, to SVO in early 2001. That time people were not aware of these types of engines and there was not much information readily available about the process. Therefore, a company that provided a filter for Anderson's system started routing client calls to him.
Years later, after reading more extensively about Rudolf Diesel, he realized that we were not living up to Mr. Rudolf's original version of using plant based fuels to run his newly invented engine.
During the further research, he realized that the most well known biofuel for diesel engine is not the sole way to make the use of vegetable oil in this engine. He concluded that instead of modifying each gallon of vegetable oil into biodiesel, modifying the engine once to be able to burn SVO would be an efficient method.


· What is defined as the curtilage for a particular house will vary according to a number of factors, but in most cases it will comprise the area of land around the original house (i.e. what is understood to be the garden/grounds of the house). But the curtilage may be a smaller area in some cases, especially in the case of properties with large grounds set in the countryside.
· This appeal decision provides an example of where it was considered that the extent of the "curtilage" of a property was less than the extent of the grounds around the property.

The Handbook of Deviant Behavior presents a comprehensive, integrative, and accessible overview of the contemporary body of knowledge in the field of social deviance in the twenty-first century.
This book addresses the full range of scholarly concerns within this area – including theoretical, methodological, and substantive issues – in over seventy original entries, written by an international mix of recognized scholars. Each of these essays provides insight not only into the historical and sociological evolution of the topic addressed, but also highlights associated notable thinkers, research findings, and key published works for further reference. As a whole, this Handbook undertakes an in depth evaluation of the contemporary state of knowledge within the area of social deviance, and beyond this considers future directions and concerns that will engage scholars in the decades ahead.
The inclusion of comparative and cross-cultural examples and discussions, relevant case studies and other pedagogical features make this book an invaluable learning tool for undergraduate and post graduate students in disciplines such as criminology, mental health studies, criminal theory, and contemporary sociology.


Injuries from a motorcycle accident can be serious. It's smart and practical to hire legal help. Here are some of the qualities you should look for when you start checking out options for motorcycle accident lawyers in Norman OK.
A good lawyer will know how to handle insurance companies. If you're bombarded with calls from the insurance carrier and all you want is some peace , then get legal help, the LegalZoom says.
Your lawyer must have excellent investigative skills. He must know how to investigate to turn up details and information that others may have missed. With a good eye for detail, your attorney can easily grasp the nuances of your case and put together enough details to prove the liability of the other party.
The best motorcycle accident lawyers in Norman OK hold plenty of experience under their belt. That's something you'll want to keep in mind when you hire legal help. Look for someone with experience.
Every case is different but hiring someone who's handled plenty of car accident cases in the past is a sound decision on your part. A lawyer whose focus and specialization is in personal injury cases will have a better understanding of the case, knows what signs to look for, and can tell if you claim is worth pursuing or not. If you're only going to get a pittance in the end, then your lawyer will likely advise you not to go through with the claim, considering the stress and toll it can take on you.
Your lawyer is a handy source of legal information. If you have any questions, your attorney shouldn't have any problems providing you with an answer. That means you've found a good legal advisor. If your attorney doesn't take the time to explain your case to you, then look elsewhere for legal help.

Q: Convert UIViewController code to UIView I have an application which is based on animations. After hours of trying and searching the most effective animation processor (which would have low delay and the best memory management) I found out the amazing PNGAnimator (http://www.modejong.com/iPhone/). Funny thing is that I am actually using JPEGs (due to size), but that is not the problem.
The problem is that the class itself is a subclass of UIViewController and when I add it to my rootViewController the new  view controller overlaps it - so all the interface elements (buttons...) are hidden under it.
That is why I would like to somehow convert the code to be a subclass of UIView. (So I can add the buttons over it) I tried converting the code myself, however the application would crash on an animation call. Could you please tell me what should I change in the code to so it will act as an UIView?
For example, I tried to change it in .h file to UIView and then in .m file, changing the references self.view to just self. Then in my root view controller adding it as an subview, but that does not show up and crashes either.
Here is the .h file:

Thank you very much for any advice!

A: Not sure why you got downvoted. I think your issue is that the UIViewController subclass has the loadView function implemented, and depends on it to build the UI. In the case of a view controller, this function is called automatically to build the view if it is not loaded from a .xib. You can try calling this functional manually after you create your object, and it should do pretty much the same thing.
Keep in mind that the shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation
 function is also a UIViewController function and will never be called on a UIView

2001 Dodge Ram 1500 with 158,000 miles, the front left brake has been overheating. I have replaced the pads ,rotor, caliper and brake hose. Im still having problems especially during stop and go driving. When they get hot they start slipping. someone told me maybe the proportioning valve is bad. I would like to know if it could be anything else before I replace it.
Did you replace all those parts on BOTH sides of the truck?
Are you getting any pulling either on or off the brakes?
Are the slide pins moving freely?
I only replaced those parts on the drivers side, it was pulling to the right before i replaced the caliper. now it is just overheating just on the drivers side, almost to the point of brake failure. I need some help on this one. I use this truck for work and family. I also live and work in the city so it is crucial that I get this fixed as soon as possible. If anyone has any idea of what could be wrong I would like to hear your feedback.
You can't expect equal braking when only changing parts on one side of the truck. I'm not saying that's your problem but it definitely wasn't repaired correctly.
I wouldn't even begin to guess knowing the brakes were only done on one side of the truck. The timing alone points to an installation error but the problem could have been misdiagnosed from the beginning.
On that system I would probably be looking for signs of contamination (swollen or disformed rubber gasket on the master cap, brk fluid that looked thick or just not right) if any type of petroleum product got in there, that wouldn't be good.
It sounds like you may have had a contamination problem. Merely flushing won't resolve that. Every piece of rubber will swell and have to be replaced.
To add: Sometimes brake will pull to better side after one gets hot/too hot called brake fade. As Hammer said it wasn't done right and if both weren't done or non brake fluid ever used it would cause problems especially after bleeding if only bleeding one side if that's what happened.
When someone mistakes an oil to top off master cylinder's reservoir the oil should stay on top. If there was any question you quickly remove all fluid from reservoir.
Now that both are hot is suggests to me the master cylinder has an issue or allowing fluid return OR once I installed a new master that was defective at returning fluid - fine cool and at 6-8 miles brakes applied themselves from expansion of fluid from using brakes or even engine heat near lines. Drove the car myself using parking brake and it did it to me without touching regular brakes.


Guam Adventist Academy promoted nine 6th Grade and six 8th Grade students this school year 2017-2018. The 6th Grade promotion was held on the 20th of May, 2018 in the Upper Room at the Windward Hills Campus.
The program started with the processional, and the promotees gracefully made their way up the stage. Class president Kurt Dela Paz warmly welcomed all the guests for that momentous occasion, followed by an opening prayer led by William Flores. Samuel Jung read the class scripture, and the 5th-6th Hand Chimes class offered a harmonious special music. Pastor Luis Mafnas was the guest speaker for that afternoon. He encouraged all the promotees to always stay close to Jesus as they move on to the next chapter of their lives. The 6th grade class showed their love and appreciation to their parents by giving them flowers together with a short message that they had prepared for them.
The 6th graders concluded this event by sharing their celebration cake with everyone. Congratulations on your promotion! Welcome to Upper School!
Six 8th Grade students participated in the promotion ceremony on May 27, 2018 at the Somnak Ballroom of Westin Resort Guam. Guests and family members of the promotees started filling up the seats of the ballroom around 10:30 a.m. Everyone was eager to witness an important event for these 8th graders.
Keynote speaker, Mr. Chaz Spellman, GAA's Bible chaplain, congratulated the students on their promotion and encouraged them amidst all the uncertainties that they will face. He quoted the verse found in Isaiah 40:31 saying "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." He left this message to the audience, but especially to these six young individuals who will be facing a new stage in their lives as students.

Sarah Michelle Gellar On Jumping From Screen To Startup With Foodstirs
It's no secret that more celebrities are flocking to tech and venture capital these days. The latest to make the leap into entrepreneurship is Sarah Michelle Gellar, best known for her TV role as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and most recently as the voice of The Seventh Sister inquisitor in the animated series Star Wars Rebels.
The company she founded with CVO Galit Laibow and CEO Greg Fleishman, Foodstirs, is the next generation's answer to Pillsbury, Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines. It mashes up subscription commerce, new media and natural foods to deliver baking kits and mixes in stores and online.
We caught up with the Foodstirs founders, who were ringing the bell at the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center in San Francisco today to show support for their fellow startup founders. Sarah Michelle Gellar said the transition from acting to entrepreneurship hasn't been as easy as you'd suspect. "It's incredibly difficult. I think there is a novelty in 'Let's see Buffy bake!' I think people see funny headlines and are like 'Oh great, she's either a spokesperson or this is going to be good laugh, a good story we can tell at drinks on Friday night,' " she said. "Maybe it is easier to get in the door, but you still have to have concept proof to back it up." Watch the video for more on what inspired her to get in the startup game.
Foodstirs' products are made for families and home chefs who don't want to eat chemical dyes and flavorings when they make something indulgent and sweet at home. The company uses all USDA-rated organic, non-GMO and fair-trade ingredients whenever possible. Though the startup only launched in September 2015, its products are already gracing the shelves at Whole Foods Market in the Northeast and Gelson's stores in California according to Laibow. "We're really proud to be the first baking mix out there to do this," she said.
The company also sells a fair amount of its products to subscribers online, who can opt for monthly shipments of baking kits with kid-friendly recipes and tools, like special cookie cutters. "We're meeting consumers wherever they want to buy baking mixes most," said Fleishman. "Online they get kits that are a little bit more craft, and offline they get standards like cookie, cake or brownie mixes," Fleishman said.
The company also publishes recipes on social media, and runs cooking shows on Facebook Live with real people, not just professional chefs, front and center. Laibow said, "We're all about building family and community so direct to consumer helps with that. Creating recipes and getting feedback online builds deeper brand loyalty."

Q: How to prove that a particular cone is open Let $S_n$ be the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and let $p\in S_n$. Moreover, call $E=B_r(p)\cap S_n$, with $r$ positive, and $B_r(p)$ the open ball or radius $r$ and center $p$. Let $$F=\{te\,:\, 0\neq t\in \mathbb{R},\, e\in E\}.$$ How do I formally prove that $F$ is open? I need this to have a formal prove that the projective space is homeomorphic to a quotient of the sphere, but I cannot see how to prove it formally.

A: Recall that if $A\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ and $t\in\mathbb{R}$ then $tA=\{ta\ |\ a\in A\}$.

Lemma 1. If $C\subseteq S^n$ is closed in $S^n$ then $V=\bigcup_{t\neq 0}tC$ is closed in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\backslash\{0\}$.

Proof. Assume that $(a_n)$ is a sequence in $V$ convergent to some $a\in\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\backslash\{0\}$. Then $\lVert a_n\rVert$ converges to $\lVert a\rVert\neq 0$. Now note that $a_n/\lVert a_n\rVert\in C$ and it is also convergent (as an image of $(a_n)$ via continuous function). Since $C$ is closed then it converges to some $c\in C$. We know what that $c$ is: $c=a/\lVert a\rVert$ again by continuity of $v\mapsto v/\lVert v\rVert$. It follows that $a=\lVert a\rVert c$ and so $a\in V$. $\Box$

Lemma 2. If $U\subseteq S^n$ is open then so is $V=\bigcup_{t\neq 0}tU$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\backslash\{0\}$.

Proof. By Lemma 1 $C'=\bigcup_{t\neq 0}t(S^n\backslash U)$ is closed in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\backslash\{0\}$. The statement follows because $V$ is the complement of $C'$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\backslash\{0\}$. $\Box$

Conclusion. Your $F$ set is open.

Proof. $E$ is an open subset of $S^n$ by definition. Apply Lemma 2 to $V=F$. $\Box$

A: Define a retraction $r : \mathbb{R}^{n+1} \setminus \{ 0 \} \to S^n, r(x) = x/\lVert x \rVert$. This is a continuous function.
$E$ is open in $S^n$. Hence $F_+ = r^{-1}(E) = \{ te \mid t > 0, e \in E \}$, is open.
Similarly $-r$ is continuous and $F_- = (-r)^{-1}(E) = \{ te \mid t < 0, e \in E \}$ is open.
Now observe $F = F_+ \cup F_-$.
You can alternatively regard $r$ as a function $R : \mathbb{R}^{n+1} \setminus \{ 0 \} \to \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. Then $R^{-1}(B_r(p)) = \{ te \mid t > 0, e \in E \}$.

The artist evokes, through this work, his worries as to the relevance of our electoral choices influenced by certain anxious media advertisements to the detriment of a speech of substance.
This sculpture highlights the inconsistency of our views for a petition whose signatories remain anonymous as some shameful voters might be. The signatures sound more like a slogan and denounce the uncertain adherence of anxious voters ready to rally to a political party with dubious arguments.
Chris Tiboise is a Pop artist born in 1974 in Paris.
He spent much of his childhood pacing the Paris subway between Stalingrad and Saint Germain des Prés where he forged an artistic culture inpired by the Hip Hop movement and what would later be called the Bobo Chic culture of the Latin quarter. It was on arriving in Nice in 1989 that he embrased the idea that "Everything is Art" as claimed by a certain School in Nice. From that point, his interest in art heavily influenced all choices of orientation... He started a training course in a graphic art school, before moving on to cinematographic studies, a professional experience of assistant operator that will last 10 years which will mark an imprint often inspired by the 7th Art in his artistic work. His passion quickly brought him to address all types of supports, steel, resin, concrete, wood, and incidentally photography. All these medias now allow him to express himself on everything that touches him, politics at half-mast, the human being in perdition in a world badly designed by and for himself, people and the unique thought. He claims and protests without a word other than those he puts on his works, and always in English which translates a fascination for the USA that he hardly dissimilates against the background of I love you neither ...

Q: What '{$x}' stands for? I had to take a test about php to evaluate my knowledge in the field. One of the questions was to tell, what is the output of echo '{$x}';? Since I've never seen this kind of brackets outside function calls, I had no idea.
What's the answer?

A: It seems like it was a trick question, first to see if you know what curly braces are used for in a PHP string, but also to to see if you know what the difference between double and single quotes in PHP strings, where single quotes are not evaluated and double quotes are, eg:
$name = "bob";
echo "hello $name"; // hello bob
echo 'hello $name'; // hello $name

I'm guessing they were assuming you would see the curly braces, which are used to isolate a variable within a string and give that answer without looking at the quotes:
$place = 3;
echo "you are {$place}rd in the line"; // you are 3rd in the line
echo "you are $placerd in the line"; // error, $placerd is not defined
echo 'you are {$place}rd in the line';  // you are {$place}rd in the line

A:
When you use single quotes (')  - like in this scenario: echo '{$x}';, The Variable $x is not affected in any way. This means that everything within the single quotes would be interpreted as string and echoed back verbatim.
   However, if you had used double quotes instead of single quotes like so: echo "{$x}";, this would rather result in the evaluation of the value of $x and the result would be echoed. See the Documentation for more information.

Q: What is the "source object is lvalue" scenario, mentioned in EMC++, where move semantics offer no efficiency gain Item 29 from Effective Modern C++, Scott Meyers lists three scenarios where move semantics don't improve code's performance,

[…] move semantics do you no good:

*

*No move operations: The object to be moved from fails to offer move operations […]

*Move not faster: […] move operations that are no faster than its copy operations.

*Move not usable: The context […] requires a move operation that emits no exceptions, but that operation isn't declared noexcept.

which are all clearly explained in the preceding pages, and then adds another one

[…] another scenario where move semantics offers no efficiency gain:

*

*Source object is lvalue: With very few exceptions (see e.g. Item 25) only rvalues may be used as the source of a move operation.

(Item 25 is titled Use std::move on rvalue references and std::forward on universal references, but I don't see how it is related to the bullet point that cross-references it.)
After this, the text essentially goes back to summarizing the item, with no further reference to that fourth bullet point.
What does that bullet point refer to?
As far as I understand move semantics, even if I want to move from an lvalue, say x, I still need to cast it to an rvalue via std::move(x) (or an equivalent static_cast), so I'm technically still moving from an rvalue (specifically an xvalue in this case), not an lvalue.
So I'd be tempted to say that an lvalue cannot be the source object of a move operation.
What am I missing about this topic?

A: The term lvalue refers to somehow "named" values, i.e., entities having multiple references. Move semantics don't really apply to them as you shouldn't "steal" the representation of something which may be referred to elsewhere. That is, if the source object is an lvalue you simply never move! So, move construction doesn't provide a benefit here. In fact, lvalues don't bind willingly to rvalue references - you'd beed to force that binding, e.g., by using std::move().
Essentially, your point is entirely correct: an lvalue cannot be the source of a move operation - and hence move operations don't provide a benefit where lvalues are involved.

A: As an example: You have a class T with a move constructor. You have a function returning an object of type T, and you try to make it faster by returning in r-value. Now if you start with
T x;
x.a = ...;
x.b = ...;
x.c = ...;
return x;

then an object x will be constructed, a new unnamed object will be created by the return statement, then x is destructed, then the return value is moved. And eventually the caller will call the destructor for the moved result. So you have two constructors, two destructors, no savings.
If you start with
T x(a, b, c);
return x;

then you have the same problem, two constructors and destructors, no savings. To actually save anything, you need to write
return T(a, b, c);

or return the return value of another function returning an object.

Air Traffic Controllers DO Track Planes Even with Transponders Off
GeorgeWashington Mon, 03/31/2008 - 5:11pm
http://georgewashington.blogspot.com/2008/03/air-traffic-controllers-do-track-planes.html
Before 9/11, no transponder had ever become inactive, and so the military and FAA didn't have any experience on how to track planes with their transponders off. Right?
Well, a Miami-Herald article from September 14, 2001, states:
The transponder [on Flight 77] went off about 9 a.m., the company said.
At that moment, the flight would have been under the control of the Indianapolis Air Route Traffic Control Center, one of 20 regional centers that track flights between airports.
The trouble should have been instantly noticeable, traffic controllers say.
Flight 77, like other planes, at first showed up on radar screens as a short solid line, with a readout that identifies the plane and gives its altitude and speed. When the transponder shuts down, the short line vanishes. The speed number goes away, too.
"It's just something that catches your eye,'' one controller says.
And it's not that unusual. Transponders fail from time to time; commercial aircraft are required to carry a spare. Although it isn't clear what happened in the case of Flight 77, a controller's first move typically would be to contact the pilot, and tell them the transponder wasn't working.
The official hijacking protocols provide that the loss of transponder signal be treated as a "no radio" emergency. On 9/11, that is exactly what happened, at least for some of the flights (The protocols also state: "The NORAD control facility shall be advised if the hijacked aircraft is squawking a different transponder code". In other words, the moment a plane stops broadcasting the normal transponder code, NORAD is immediately notified).
As former air traffic controller Robin Hordon, who knows the flight corridor which the two planes which hit the Twin Towers flew "like the back of my hand" and who handled two actual hijackings says:
It is important for people to understand that scrambling jet fighters to intercept aircraft showing the signs of experiencing "IN-FLIGHT EMERGENCIES" such as going off course without authorization, losing a transponder signal and/or losing radio contact is a common and routine task executed jointly between the FAA and NORAD controllers. The entire "national defense-first responder" intercept system has many highly-trained civilian and military personnel who are committed and well-trained to this task. FAA and NORAD continuously monitor our skies and fighter planes and pilots are on the ready 24/7 to handle these situations. Jet fighters typically intercept any suspect plane over the United States within 10 - 15 minutes of notification of a problem.
This type of "immediate, high speed, high priority and emergency" scramble had been happening regularly approximately 75 - 150 times per year for ten years. In the same ten years, there were ZERO "low speed, delayed reaction, and low priority" hijacking scrambles reported, which means that the only time interceptors were ever scrambled for ten years before 9/11, they were using the high speed immediate scrambles.
On 9/11, Flight 77 was in fact tracked on radar, and could have been intercepted with fighter jets. However, the plane was allowed to go on a joy-ride all over the country with its transponder off for three-quarters of an hour. As the above-quoted Miami-Herald article states:
Forty-five minutes. That's how long American Airlines Flight 77 meandered through the air headed for the White House, its flight plan abandoned, its radar beacon silent.
Who was watching in those 45 minutes?
"That's a question that more and more people are going to ask,'' said one controller in Miami. "What the hell went on here? Was anyone doing anything about it? Just as a national defense thing, how are they able to fly around and no one go after them?''
Even with the transponder silent, the plane should have been visible on radar, both to controllers who handle cross-continent air traffic and to a Federal Aviation Administration command center outside of Washington, according to air traffic controllers.
The FAA, which handles air traffic control, would not discuss the track of Flight 77 or what happened in air-control centers while it was in flight. Neither would American Airlines.
But even if the plane remained silent, controllers could still find it -- by switching their screen display to the old-fashioned radar that bounces a signal off the plane's metal skin.
Military jets are routinely scrambled in the case of hijackings and "runners,'' planes that do not answer or do not heed air traffic controllers. But FAA officials would not say when controllers detected the errant Flight 77 or whether any fighter jets were able to get into the air to confront it.
Fighter jets are based nearby, in Virginia, and could have reached the White House within minutes, aviation sources say.
Dick Cheney also monitored flight 77 for many miles as it approached the Pentagon (confirmed here).
Similarly, an ABC News article states:
"Controllers at the Boston Center knew American Airlines Flight 11, which departed at 7:59 a.m. ET from Boston for its flight to Los Angeles, was hijacked 30 minutes before it crashed. They tracked it to New York on their radar scopes. 'I watched the target of American 11 the whole way down,' said Boston controller Mark Hodgkins. "
And air traffic controllers and others tracked Flight 175.
Indeed, radar data declassified in 2006 shows that the planes were tracked on radar virtually their entire flight, and that altitude was known for the planes during most of their flights.
And, as recounted by a high-level Secret Service agent:
"Through monitoring radar and activating an open line with the FAA, the Secret Service was able to receive real time information about . . . two hijacked aircraft as they approached Washington, D.C. "
Norad Admits Planes Show Up on Radar Even with Transponders Turned Off
Even Neads, the Northeastern sector of Norad, admits that the hijacked planes would have appeared on radar as dashes even after the transponders had been turned off:
Because they had been informed its transponder was off, [Neads] knew to look for a tiny dash instead of the usual dot.
A similar report states:
NEADS Staff Sergeant Larry Thornton says, "Once we were called by the FAA, we could find split-second hits on what we thought we were looking for. . . We were looking for little dash marks . . . ."
But the government claims that it could not locate the hijacked planes because the skies were crowded with other planes, and the military air traffic controllers could not find the planes among all of the plane signals. As NEADS' Thornton said:
"But the area was so congested and it was incredibly difficult to find. We were looking for little dash marks in a pile of clutter and a pile of aircraft on a two-dimensional scope." Each fluorescent green pulsating dot on their radar scopes represents an airplane, and there are thousands currently airborne, especially over the busy northeast US.
However, the hijacked planes flew in many areas which were not high-traffic areas.
Moreover, it makes no sense that air traffic controllers could not focus their radar scopes solely on airplanes without transponder signals. In other words, let's say a Cuban jet flew onto the East Coast of the United States without any transponder signal. Would Norad say "Sorry, we lost the bad guy's nuclear-armed fighter jet amidst all the commuter flights"?
That makes no sense.
Air traffic control radar -- or at least military radar -- must, with the push of a button, be able to use computer programming to hide all data for planes which have been accounted for as normal, civilian airplanes. In other words, those with working transponder signals. Even if air traffic controllers have to switch from secondary to primary radar, there must be a function for the computer to remove from primary radar signals which include transponder data.
If that were not the case, America's trillion-dollar defense system would be rendered useless.

When Did AA 11's Transponder Quit?
............and protocool would have dictated that Boston ATC contact NORAD by 8:14-8:15, once they lost communication. Supposedly they waited till, what,8:30? This seems very fishy to me.

The transponder is for additional info and ease such as
auto-identification, etc .NOT for tracking ABILITY.
FredHendrik on Tue, 04/01/2008 - 2:54am.
transponder information is received through a separate radar system. it may be 'integrated' with the main radar system, but still a system of it's own nonetheless.
in fact it's mainly one-way, as no signals bounce off. interrogation code trains are sent by the secondary/iffsiff/mssr, whatever it may be called for the technology it uses, to the transponder of the aircraft. the aircraft replies...the orientation of the reply in respect to the secondary radar antenna is estimated using fancy sidelobe techniques and stuff i don't remember and determines the location of the reply, and automation computers match them to the primary targets, to create 'reinforced' targets.
primary targets however do not contain any information whatsoever beyond azimuth and range. there might be calculation tools that can be used on the viewing display for ground speed. height is only given by transponder...or, if it's a radar that specifically has height detection built into it...most airport radars don't. i would definitely think norad has something quite better and layers of redundancy.
i used to work on radar in the NYC/philly area...very busy there, but ATC's can tell when they are losing information rather readily as separate sections of the coverage area are split up amongst them on their separate displays so they don't all have to watch the whole myriad of planes being detected.
of course seeing primary targets is very easy in contrast to a bunch of reinforced targets, unless perhaps some other ghost blips get put in around the location of the real target before anyone had the presence of mind to have it selected...then it got lost in the mayhem. who knows.
seeing primary targets amongst other primary targets, not so much. if there was a bunch of primary targets hanging around, it puts into question what made them primary targets..where's their transponder? they all hijacks now? obviously not...who put those blips in...

Allahabad HC Grants Ex-Parte Divorce to Husband After Wife Fails to Appear Before It [READ ORDER]

The Division Bench of Justices Anil Kumar and Saurabh Lavania of the Allahabad High Court (Lucknow Bench) has in the matter of Aayush Rastogi v. Principal Judge Family Court Lucknow And Another, granted ex-parte decree to an aggrieved husband after wife failed to appear before the Trial Court as well as before the High Court. The judgment to this effect was passed on April 29, 2020.

Background of the Case:
Also Read - Bombay High Court Waives Statutory Period in Case of Divorce by Mutual Consent
The appellant (Aayush) had challenged the judgment and order dated November 07, 2015, passed by the Principal Judge, Family Court, Lucknow in Aayush Rastogi Vs. Smt. Malvika Rastogi, whereby the divorce petition under Section 12(1) (c) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 moved by the appellant was dismissed.
Section 12: Voidable Marriages. -
(1) Any marriage solemnized, whether before or after the commencement of this Act, shall be voidable and may be annulled by a decree of nullity on any of the following grounds,
namely: -
(a) – (b)
(c) that the consent of the petitioner, or where the consent of the guardian in marriage of the petitioner was required under Section 5 as it stood immediately before the commencement of the Child Marriage Restraint (Amendment) Act, 1978, the consent of such guardian was obtained by force or by fraud as to the nature of the ceremony or as to any material fact or circumstance concerning the respondent;
Marriage of Aayush Rastogi and respondent no.2 of the present case Smt. Malvika Rastogi was solemnized as per the Hindu Rites and Rituals in 2011 at Lucknow. After the marriage, it was revealed to Aayush that the marriage of Malvika was solemnized without her free consent and she was not happy with him and she wanted to go back to Kolkata.
One day Malvika had made an attempt to commit suicide but due to timely intervention of the family of Aayush, she could not succeed and thereafter Aayush's parent immediately rushed to Kolkata and at the time she expressed that if her marriage with him would be dissolved by any competent court of law, she would have no objection to it. During her stay with Aayush, he alleged that she did not perform her matrimonial duties.
A case was filed by him for hearing before the Principal Judge, Family Court, Lucknow. Although, even after issuance of a notice, she did not appear and consequently the Principal Judge dismissed the suit. Aayush had then filed an appeal before the HC being aggrieved by the Family Court's decision.
When the case came before the HC, the HC directed for the summoning of the lower court record. However, the record was not available when the case was heard and reserved for judgment hence, the case was finally heard in the absence of lower court record.
Counsel for the appellant had submitted that at the time when the marriage between both was solemnized, her mental condition was not sound, and she was constantly living under the threats and pressure created upon her by her mother namely Smt. Mamta Saraf.
It is also submitted that she had herself admitted that in order to save her mother from agony, she had consented to this marital arrangement. It was also alleged that her poor mental condition reflected in her rude and erratic behaviour towards her husband/appellant and she did not allow the plaintiff to consummate the marriage on the grounds that the marriage was forced upon her and she did not want to stay with the appellant.
Ultimately it was submitted that as her mental condition was not good, fraud was played upon Aayush by concealing the fact related to free consent on her part and that amounts to concealment of a material fact or circumstances concerning her, which the Trial Court had failed to appreciate under provisions of Sub-Section 12(1)(c) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 in its correct perspective.
The Court took note of the fact that the averments made in the plaint regarding the mental status Malvika at the time of marriage as also about her non consent for marriage made by Aayush were proved by filing evidence by way of affidavit in the ex-parte proceedings.
Conclusion of the Court:
Regarding the trial court order , the HC noted,
"It appears from the judgment dated 07.11.2015 that the trial court ignored the facts pleaded in the plaint duly proved in ex-parte proceedings by filing evidence by way of affidavit while pronouncing the judgment. In view of the same, we are of view that the trial court erred in law and facts both."
After taking note of the fact that Malvika did not want to participate in the proceedings for divorce and was forcing Aayush to stay in the dead marriage, the Court held,
"we are of the opinion that there is no likelihood of the appellant and the respondent living together and for all practical purposes there is an irretrievable breakdown of marriage and matrimonial bond is beyond repair and there is no chance of its being retrieved and the relations between the parties are sufficiently spoiled and therefore, no fruitful purpose would be served in maintaining the matrimonial relations between the parties, accordingly we are of the view that on the ground of irretrievable breakdown of marriage, the appellant is entitled for relief of dissolution of marriage."
Allowing the appeal and setting aside the judgment of the Principal Judge, Family Court, Lucknow, the Court granted the decree of divorce to Aayush.

Q: Sapiosexual without the sexual connotation I have been hearing the word "sapiosexual" referring to a person attracted to another because of the mental abilities, but attracted not in a sexual way, and I believe "sapiosexual" isn't the most accurate term for this context.
Is there a word to describe non-sexual attraction towards another person because of their wittiness/assertiveness/intelligence?

A: "Sapiosexual" seems to be a very recent word, probably best described as "a clever word cooked up the other day and popular on the Internet". Sapiophile is another such neologism- you will find it in the same online dictionaries of slang as you find sapiosexual.

A: sapiophile, n. observed in meetup announcements and elsewhere to solicit people drawn to intellectual pursuits with no connotation of sexual attraction. The derivation and morphology do not imply sexuality, and while Internet searches on the term now seem to lean toward sexual attraction (more aptly sapiosexual), that is not implicit in sapiophile itself or its needed availability for a very human urge to meet and associate with people who have sufficient intellectual candlepower to hold an intelligent conversation, an increasingly rare trait. --Alan Korwin, The Uninvited Ombudsman (PageNine.com), q.v.
