WHAT ARE THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS TO DIVE AT KRAKEN SPRINGS?
All divers must be either a certified open water diver with proof from a major certification agency (PADI, SDI, SSI, NAUI, etc) for photocopy on site OR be with an active certified instructor with current professional insurance diving under his instruction. Lack of certification card on site or, for instructors, lack of certification card and professional insurance will result being denied access to the quarry. Minors require legal parent or guardian signature or entry will not be allowed.
CAN anyone paddle or SNORKEL on kraken springs?
Absolutely! Kraken Springs is a watersports park for the entire family. You may sign up and pay at the front counter for a watersports pass (same cost as entry for diving) and have access to any of our available watersports equipment or bring your own. Anyone in the water must have on a Lifejacket (PFD). Additionally, you are more than welcome to bring landlubber "Bubble Watchers" to enjoy the beautiful views of the quarry at no cost. If you would like to get the family in the water, one of Kraken Springs' expert Instructors are more than happy to take them on a Discover Scuba Diving tour of the quarry.
No, We have no lifeguard on duty. All individuals must be either under the care of a training professional that has professional liability insurance, or are responsible as adults for themselves and any minors under their care. This is a large body of water that has natural and unnatural hazards and you are responsible for your own safety. Anyone in the water must have a PFD or BCD securely attached (with the exception of training under the care of a certified instructor).
WHAT ARE THE WATER CONDITIONS (TEMPERATURE/VISIBILITY) AT KRAKEN SPRINGS?
The water temp swings greatly depending on the depth and time of year and is layered in three distinct thermoclines. During the mid-heat, the surface temperature can be upwards of 85 degrees with a 10-15 degree drop around 20-25ft followed by another 10-15 degree drop around 40-45ft. During fall-spring, the surface temperature is cooler and less variations between thermocline layers. This will be similar diving to most inland bodies of water.
Visibility can be between 15' to 40' depending on the weather, depth, and divers in the water. Generally the deeper thermoclines are much more clear and visibility is pretty good if everyone is kept off the silt bottoms.
The water is actually some of the cleanest around! Kraken Springs is constantly replenished by an underground spring that constantly drains out, replenishing the reservoir. This, combined with the fact that the quarry is actually surrounded by a hill that the nearby drainage area washes around via Pettit Creek bypassing our body of water all together, keeping it in amazing condition.
We test the water quality on a regular basis to ensure that our wonderful locations stays that way. The result is the same every time, it's limestone filtered drinking water!
WHAT IS KRAKEN SPRINGS' POLICY ON SOLO OR SELF-RELIANT DIVING?
You must hold, bring, and directly show a Solo or Self-Reliant certification with a major diving certification agency. Examples of Self Reliant certifications are PADI Self-Reliant Diver and SDI Solo Diver OR Full Cave (not cavern) such as PADI Tec Rec Technical Cave Diver and TDI Full Cave.
You must be able to show you have the equipment to support a Self-Reliant dive via an isolated air stage (Pony Bottle, Twin Cylinders with Isolation Valve, Independent Doubles).
You must sign a certified Self-Reliant liability form and follow the checkin procedures as outlined in the Quarry Policies and Procedures section.
If you don't have your certification cards, the proper certification level, or do not have the proper equipment then you can not dive without a buddy. No exceptions will be made.

Aberdeen University Clinical Biochemistry Dept.
Initially, Boyd Orr set to work as sole scientist, assisted by William Gammie Ogg, and with one goat in the basement laboratories of Marischal College of the Aberdeen University. After a break in the developments due to World War I, from which Boyd Orr returned with a Military Cross and a Distinguished Service Order, the Commissioners agreed to a building programme of � 000. The government granted one pound for every pound raised from other sources and funds came from many sources.
In 1926 to 1927 Boyd Orr and David Lubbock showed in tests in seven cities in Scotland and Belfast that children given milk gained more in height and weight than did those given a biscuit of similar energy value. Legislation was later passed which allow local authorities to provide cheap or free milk in schools.


Hi8 technology has been ignored lately because of the digital revolution, but price-conscious buyers can still find great picture quality and feature-laden Hi8 camcorders, and the Canon ES8400V is no exception. Some of its many features include a large 2.5-inch LCD screen, color viewfinder, built-in video light, time base corrector for a more accurate picture, preset titling, and digital effects such as art, black and white, sepia, negative, and 16:9 screen ratio.
The optical zoom has a power of 22x and a digital zoom of 800x. The digital zoom works by electronically enhancing the optical image and comes in handy for objects far away. The electronic image stabilization system keeps the picture steady despite natural hand shaking from the user. The autofocus and autoexposure functions help you concentrate on the action rather than on trying to find the ideal setting for each moment. For greater control, you can use the focus controller and direct the camera to focus on an off-center subject. The ES8400V has programmed autoexposure settings to match a variety of shooting situations: auto, sports, portrait, spotlight, and sand and snow.
The standard RCA input-output and cable are included so you can hook the camcorder to a TV for convenient viewing or a VCR for dubbing to regular VHS.
This package contains the ES8400V camcorder, battery pack (model BP-911K), shoulder strap, power adapter (model CA-550), and AV cable.


According to the Beer Institute, a group that represents 2,800 U.S. brewers and suppliers, the making and selling of Americans' favorite alcoholic drink is a $264.5 billion industry—so it's probably safe to say that most of us usually have a bottle or six on hand. Yes, you can drink it, but the value of this golden elixir goes far beyond basic imbibing. Read on for 7 other, ingenious ways to put beer to good use.
Who knew? Those pesky, slimy sliders that nibble on your garden plants can't resist a nice brew. To cut down on their numbers, bury jam jars so their rims are level with the soil, then fill them with a few inches of beer. Slugs, drawn by the barroom aroma, will crawl in and meet a happy death in the drink.
Next time someone leaves you with a half-finished bottle of Bud after a backyard barbecue, save it to use as an all-natural wood polish. Applying flat beer to wooden furniture with a soft cloth reportedly gives the wood grain a fine sheen (but do test this treatment first on a hidden part of your furniture before you slop the drink all over it).
If you're lucky enough to own copper pots and pans, use a bit of beer on a polishing cloth to buff away tarnish spots. This home-brewed remedy also works on other brass items, such as lamps, doorknobs, and grillwork.
When your lawn is looking a little wan, try feeding it with a homemade fertilizer. Many homeowners have found success with a simple and surprising concoction of beer, household ammonia, and baby shampoo. Intrigued?
Carbonation—the fizz factor in beer—works wonders on dull faucets and handles in the bathroom. To try it out, fill a plastic bag with flat beer and tie it around taps or spouts that have lost their shine. Remove after a few hours of soaking, and enjoy newly sparkling fixtures.
When entertaining outdoors, pour a bit of brew into shallow bowls and set them on the perimeter of your deck or patio. Rather than pestering your guests, winged insects like wasps and flies will be drawn toward the beer's sugars.
If rust has locked a screw in place, try dousing it with a fresh, fizzy beer. The carbonation is said to break down rust just enough to allow the screw to be loosened. Turn the screw as needed, then celebrate by drinking the rest of the beverage.

"we've found that happy servants are less effective. We prefer to keep morale as low as supernaturally possible."
I love this dialogue(?), and can relate to it a lot more than is probably healthy.
Also, "blup blup" is Magic Fountain-speak for "Like I give any ****s, mammal".
So obviously the mother began the curse and is in charge of it. Was he not told about reversing the curse? Is this iteration of the tale without a "true love" remedy? Interesting, like to see where this could possibly be going.
Is the mother, then, going to try to steal Beauty away from him all the time so that he could remain as such forever?
Or could it be that true love is the remedy, but the Beast does not know it? Curiouser and Curiouser.
And now I'm stuck like this: O.O ..... until next Tuesday.
I'm going to worry over him all weekend.
Mom really hates her child that much. Poor Beast is never going to get a break, is he, Ms. Megan?
I notice no father around ? What happened to him? Killed off?
What happened to uncle I believe who was looking out for him?
So many unanswered questions here. Please enlighten us.
At the risk of being spoliery, there's some versions of the story where she's a ... tutor/gaurdian? Rather than a straight-up parent.
There is still the possibility that beast is on his own guilt trip and bad mother is coming from his own Memory making up the contract/leash he is on.
I still feel there is something missing.

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) is a widely accepted food safety management system, which can be easily adapted to suit all types and size of food business. Its concept focuses on the prevention of food safety problems before they occur and is accepted by international authorities as the most effective means of controlling food-borne diseases.
The HACCP system takes necessary procedures to control and prevent them from occurring. By conducting a hazard analysis, the HACCP system identifies the possible hazards throughout the process of food production. Then the critical control points (CCP) are determined, with the critical limits established. Monitoring procedures are established to control the CCP's; while corrective actions are established when monitoring indicates that the CCP is not controlled.
HACCP is not something new in the industry. In the early 1960s, a collaborated effort between the Pillsbury Company, NASA, and the U.S. Army Laboratories began with the objective to provide safe food for space expeditions.
Following the growing concern on food safety, the food industry and educated consumers are driving food producers to be HACCP-certified. With the high rates of the occurrence of food-borne diseases, people are on their toes when it comes to consuming food that is safe for themselves and their loved ones. In countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada etc, it has become mandatory for food producers to adhere to the HACCP requirement in order to have their products recognized and marketed to consumers.
Many organizations have also acknowledged the standards and procedures established by the HACCP certification system, such as the National Academy of Sciences in the United States, World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).


Joan Vollmer (February 4, 1923 – September 6, 1951) was the most prominent female member of the early Beat Generation circle. While a student at Barnard College, she became the roommate of Edie Parker (later married to Jack Kerouac). Their apartment became a gathering place for the Beats during the 1940s, where Vollmer was often at the center of marathon, all night discussions. In 1946, she began a relationship with William S. Burroughs, later becoming his common-law wife. In 1951, Burroughs killed Vollmer by shooting her in the head in what was apparently a drunken attempt at playing William Tell.
Burroughs initially tried to support his family by farming cash crops in the Rio Grande valley. When this failed, he moved Vollmer and their children to New Orleans. While living there he was arrested for heroin possession, during which time police searched Vollmer's home, unearthing letters from Ginsberg discussing a possible shipment of marijuana. The resulting criminal charges were grave — upon conviction Burroughs would have served time in Louisiana's infamous Angola State Prison; he fled for Mexico City. Once he was settled, Vollmer joined him, along with her children.
In her son's novel Kentucky Ham (1973), Vollmer is remembered as a gentle and considerate mother who was meek and deferential to her husband's parents. Yet she is also depicted as being prone to wild bouts of self-destructive behavior. The book recounts a reckless, almost deadly drive down a mountainside road in Mexico. Joan's battered appearance and unpredictable behavior alarmed Ginsberg when he visited with Lucien Carr in 1951. During their visit she expressed some bitterness and hostility toward Burroughs' lack of affection and continued drug addiction. In fact, at the time of Ginsberg's visit, Burroughs was away in Guatemala with a young man he pursued unsuccessfully.


My story is interesting because I could have died.
You would think that a healthcare professional like myself would have learned everything that was necessary to be personally healthy. At least two years ago I would have thought that?but, not true. Medical and dental professionals have a paltry amount of nutritional training?and no training in the importance of primal nutrition and lifestyle.
I am a periodontist: a dentist who has specialized in the treatment of gum disease. Today, I have been in practice in South Carolina for 40 years. That is a long time. When my story began, I was in practice for 32 years.
After all these years, I still find it interesting how lessons from my athlete days can pop up in other areas of life. In my competition era, for example, one of the things that helped me continually better my performance was a well-honed, disciplined inner focus. In the deep reaches of a marathon, I better be focused on myself. That doesn't mean I never had awareness of where other people were in relation to me – although those moments happened, too. It means I couldn't afford to spend my energy outside of myself in those grueling hours. In a game of mind over matter, you learn not to waste critical mental resources.
It's that time of year again, for feasting on savory meats and holiday fare ancestral style, and celebrating friendships and family with gift wrapped treasures of the contemporary kind. But why not bring something a bit more primitive to the holiday season…especially for the kiddos?

A 25. nyílt és 10. női sakkolimpiát 1982. október 29. és november 16. között rendezték meg a svájci Luzernben. A rendezvény a Nemzetközi Sakkszövetség (FIDE) égisze alatt került lebonyolításra. A versenyen nyílt és női kategóriában indulhattak a nevező országok csapatai. A verseny helyszíne az Ausstellung-Festhalle Allmend volt.

Az előző olimpián mindkét magyar csapat ezüstérmet szerzett. Az Élő-pontok alapján a nyílt versenyben szereplő csapatunk a kiugró 2651-es átlagértékszámmal rendelkező szovjet, valamint a 2580-as átlagú amerikai válogatott mögött 2579 ponttal a 3. legerősebbnek számított. Női csapatunk az ugyancsak kiugróan magas, 2360-as értékszámmal rendelkező szovjet válogatott mögött 2205-ös átlaggal a 2. legerősebb volt. Mögötte kevéssel elmaradva Románia csapata volt előzetesen a harmadik legerősebb.

Az előzetes erősorrend alapján férfi csapatunk 5. helyezése elmaradt a várakozástól, de ha azt tekintjük, hogy minden versenyzőnk az elvárt teljesítményérték fölött teljesített, akkor elismerésre méltó. Női válogatottunk 3. helyezést érte el, amelyhez hozzájárult a román válogatott egészen kiváló teljesítménye, amit jelez, hogy egyéniben két arany és egy bronzérmet szereztek játékosaik.

A versenyzők és a bírói testület
A nyílt versenyre 82 csapat 545 versenyzője nevezett, köztük 62 nemzetközi nagymester és 93 nemzetközi mester. A női versenyen 45 csapatban 176 fő vett részt, köztük 11 női nemzetközi nagymester és 37 női nemzetközi mester.

A verseny főbírója a német nemzetközi versenybíró Lothar Schmid volt.

A verseny menete
A nyílt és a női verseny egymástól külön, 14 fordulós svájci rendszerben került megrendezésre. A nyílt versenyben a csapatok 6 főt nevezhettek, akik közül egy-egy fordulóban 4-en játszottak, a női versenyben 4 fő nevezésére volt lehetőség, akik közül egy időben hárman játszhattak. A csapatot alkotó versenyzők között előzetesen fel kellett állítani az erősorrendet, és azt meg kellett adni a versenybíróknak. A leadott erősorrendnek nem kell megegyeznie a versenyzők Élő-értékszámának sorrendjével. Az egyes fordulókban ennek az erősorrendnek a figyelembe vételével alkottak párokat az egymással játszó a csapatok.

Az egyes játszmákban a játékosoknak fejenként 2,5 óra állt rendelkezésre 40 lépés megtételére, majd 16 lépésenként további 1-1 óra.

A csapatok pontszámát az egyes játékosok által elért eredmények összege adja. Egy játszmában a győzelemért 1 pont, a döntetlenért fél pont jár. A végeredmény, a csapatpontszám az így szerzett pontok alapján kerül meghatározásra.

Az olimpiai kiírás szerint holtverseny esetén elsődlegesen a Buchholz-számítás dönt. Ha ez is egyenlő, akkor a csapatpontszámokat veszik figyelembe oly módon, hogy egy csapatgyőzelem 2 pontot, a döntetlen 1 pontot ér.

Catch up all three episodes of The Search on BBC iPlayer.
THE SEARCH is a new three part documentary series taking an exclusive look at one of the most vital volunteer services in Northern Ireland - the Community Rescue Service - as they search for missing people across the country.
The series starts on Tuesday 22nd January at 10:40pm and will also be available on BBC iPlayer.
Cry Rosa has been shortlisted for this year's RTS Awards in the Drama category.
Cry Rosa picked up the main festival prize in Hamburg at the Mo&Friese Short Film Festival. The jury is made up of talented German children and teenagers judging international short films with a cash prize of €1250.
We, the jury, give the Mo Award to the film 'Cry Rosa' because the film's content was easy for kids of our age to understand and made us think. The film deals with racism, and we liked Rosa's role a lot. She always bounces back and shows strength. She can be a role model for other people. The film is exciting and very sad and we never got bored watching it. Watching it was like a trip to the past, everything looked very real. We especially liked the happy end, because it shows that you should never allow yourself to get cowed by others.
Pure O: Thinking the Unthinkable is a 14 minute film examining the mental health condition known as Pure O, an extreme and rare form of OCD.

Does anyone know a solution?
Thank you.

Finally, this code works good!
I'll write final code here for future me and who annoyed with this issue.
List<dynamic> infoList = <dynamic>[];

body: Center(
          child: FutureBuilder<DocumentSnapshot>(
            future: FirebaseFirestore.instance
                .collection("users")
                .doc(FirebaseAuth.instance.currentUser!.uid)
                .get(),
            builder: (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot snapshot) {
              if (snapshot.hasData && snapshot.data!.exists) {
                Map<String, dynamic> data =
                    snapshot.data!.data() as Map<String, dynamic>;
                infoList = data["info"];
                return ListView.builder(
                    shrinkWrap: true,
                    itemCount: infoList.length,
                    scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
                    itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
                      return Text(infoList[index]);
                    });
              }

              return const Center(child: LinearProgressIndicator());
            },
          ),
        )

A: Add shrinkWrap: true, in ListView.builder.
As your listview is not bounded, flutter can't understand how much space it will render, to bound it, you can use a Sizedbox or Container  with height.
But it raised another problem, it can be scrollable or again renderbox overflowed error!
So the best way is using shrinkWrap in ListView.builder To use the listview as a dynamic widget.
body: Center(
          child: Column(
          children: [
            FutureBuilder<DocumentSnapshot>(
              future: FirebaseFirestore.instance
                  .collection("users")
                  .doc(FirebaseAuth.instance.currentUser!.uid)
                  .get(),
              builder: (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot snapshot) {
                print(snapshot.data!.exists);
                if (snapshot.hasData && snapshot.data!.exists) {
                   return ListView.builder(
                      shrinkWrap: true, // here this is
                      itemCount: infoList.length,
                      scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
                      itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
                        return Text(infoList[index].ToString());
                      });
                }

                return const Center(child: LinearProgressIndicator());
              },
            ),
          ],
        ))

A: You only need to give the space to ListView.builder
return SizedBox(
 height: 200,
 width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
 child: ListView.builder(
  shrinkWrap: true,
  itemCount: infoList.length,
  scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
  itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
    return Text(infoList[index]);
  });
)

Graphic Novel (Guest) Review 53/365: Doctor Mirage – Valiant Comics Week!
There are certain books, that when you read them, you know which friends are going to love them. For me, I knew Jason Nisavic was going to love Doctor Mirage. So, I asked him to do a guest review for me.
Doctor Shan Fong is a talented medium; not a con-artist like so many of the real-world's exposed shysters but a real, effective traveler in the afterlife. Her torture is that she can talk to almost anyone who has passed away except for her husband, whose soul is nowhere to be found. After a touching introduction to her talents in the form of talking to the deceased loved ones of clients, Fong is hired to travel through hell in pursuit of a client's goal. Although she reluctantly accepts the job, she also plans to use the opportunity to finally solve the mystery of her husband's disappearance.
Valiant Comics are a great blessing to a science fiction fan like myself. Odds are, if you have belonged to a fandom, Valiant is producing a work that appeals to you. Doctor Who fans can enjoy Ivar, Timewalker. Watchmen/All-Star Superman fans have Divinity. So many desirable elements combine into this character and story! Elements of John Constantine, Detective Comics, Lord of the Rings, and Hellboy promise a good time for fans of any of those works. The Fong character gives us a deep, three-dimensional person who loses none of her professional edge from suffering a deep loss. The story keeps the reader engaged and informed as we are drawn into unfamiliar worlds with strange, new rules. The journey to reconnect with Fong's husband takes an encouraging turn in the first trade, making for a satisfying payoff for your students.
The art is striking and sober, taking on a surrealistic edge in the afterlife to let us know we definitely aren't in Kansas anymore. The demons are simply terrifying and unreal; the humans (at least the good ones) provide visual as well as narrative relief from the harshness of their surroundings. Near the end, the themes in the art carry through in creative ways, such as in the deep-red cloaks of malevolent humans which match the color of demons.
I do feel it necessary to note that because a significant part of Doctor Mirage takes place in hell, there are some scary characters and actions that are not suitable for children. This is a high school+ book. That shouldn't scare you away from using it in your age-appropriate English class, though! It's themes and engaging story will make for a great addition to your bookshelf!
I want to thank Jason, and ask you to give him a follow on Twitter. He's an amazing Social Studies teacher that is one of the founding members of our Comic Book Teacher Clan. Hit him up for cool Social Studies ideas!

Alessia Ottus is an Imperial commoner who can be found wandering in the Imperial City's Market District and Temple District. She can also be found in Skingrad. She is married to Hastrel, and they have one daughter, Ida.
Alessia is the author of the guidebooks to each city, which are full of bigoted criticisms and observations. Her few favorable descriptions, particularly of the Temple District of the Imperial City, are insipid and almost devoid of any true analysis. She seems to be heavily prejudiced against Nords, Orcs, Dark Elves, Khajiit, Argonians, merchants, sailors, arena contestants, beggars, and the ancient Ayleids. She also has a deep hatred and distrust of the Mages Guild and the use of magicka, considering mages to be "godless". The upper classes of Cyrodiil will delicately state that "I have not read the works of Mrs. Ottus. I'm told some find her guide books useful, though she apparently has strong opinions on some matters."
She sleeps in a single bed upstairs in the Ottus' house from midnight to 6am, then spends the next few hours bustling about downstairs. On Loredas she heads to the Arboretum at 10am and stays there until 5pm, chatting to other locals. On Sundas she stays in until midday then walks around the Temple District for four hours before going to a service in the Temple of the One until 8pm. On all other days she leaves the house at 1pm and walks around the market district until 5pm, after which she goes to the Temple District for an hour. Whatever she does during the day, she eventually returns to the house and walks around the ground floor before bedtime. There are two exceptions. On the 10th of each month, at midday, Alessia heads to the Black Horse Courier offices, where she was supposed to play a role in the Imperial Couriers Unfinished Quest - she wanted to send a message to Hafid Hollowleg in Bruma. On the 2nd of the month, she heads to the Two Sisters Lodge in Skingrad. At 8am the next morning, she will head to the area near the guild halls and shops and walk around for eight hours. After that, she will head back to the Imperial City and resume her usual schedule. During the Light the Dragonfires quest, Alessia (like most Imperial City citizens) is confined to her home.
She wears a russet felt outfit with doeskin shoes, carrying with her a middle-class amount of gold, a spare pair of tan linens and her house key.
Alessia is a devout worshipper of the Nine Divines and will introduce herself exactly how she opens all her guides: "My name is Alessia Ottus, and I'd like to talk about the Nine Divines." When asked about the Imperial City, she replies "St. Alessia has blessed our city and all its people. Visit the Temple of the One, and renew your faith."

Q: Move constructor behaviour I recently stumbled upon some strange behaviour (strange from my point of view) from move constructor. The result is different when compiling with GCC and Visual Studio. I would like to hear the explanation of this behaviour, don't think this is a bug but probably compiler specific.
Consider the following code:
#include <iostream>
#include <unordered_map>

struct Test
{
    std::unordered_map<int, int> v;
    std::unordered_map<int, int>::iterator vend;

    Test(std::unordered_map<int, int>::iterator &it)
        : vend { v.end() }
    {
        it = this->vend;
    };

    Test() = delete;
    Test(Test const &) = delete;
    Test(Test &&) = default; // <- line in question
};

int main()
{
    std::unordered_map<int, int>::iterator it;
    std::unordered_map<int, Test> m;
    m.emplace(0, Test{ it });
    std::cout << std::boolalpha << (m.at(0).v.end() == it) << "\n";

    return 0;
}

So I am storing iterator to the end of map in map element upon creation of the element. I also take a reference to it to compare later. From std::unordered_map::emplace:

Inserts a new element into the container constructed in-place with the
  given args if there is no element with the key in the container.
Careful use of emplace allows the new element to be constructed while
  avoiding unnecessary copy or move operations.

Using default move constructor, the iterator stored in map element and my reference are the same:
Test(Test &&) = default;

Results are true in GCC and true in VS. Now if I change move constructor to:
Test(Test &&) {}

GCC still returns true but VS returns false
Just in case tried with c++17, same results. So could anyone please explain what is happening here?

A: In this line:
m.emplace(0, Test{ it });

... the newly inserted Test object is constructed from std::forward<Test>(Test{ it }), so the move constructor is indeed called (because of the forwarding, copy elision does not work here). If you want to construct Test directly, you can use m.emplace(0, it) instead.
Now we can see

*

*With Test(Test &&) = default;, the temporary object designated by Test{ it }.v is moved into m.at(0).v. If it remains valid (this is not guaranteed), m.at(0).v.end() == it evaluates to true; otherwise the program results in undefined behavior.

*With Test(Test &&) {}, m.at(0).v is value-initialized, and it is invalidated as the temporary object designated by Test{ it }.v is destroyed. The program results in undefined behavior.
In libstdc++'s implementation, the end iterators for different unordered_maps have the same value (similar to std::istream_iterator),  so the behavior of GCC is reasonable.

Bishop of Elphin welcomes publication of Mother and Baby report
Shannonside News
The Bishop of Elphin is welcoming the publication of the report into Mother and Baby homes in Ireland and says it's a public recognition of the pain and isolation that so many women and children experienced.
Bishop Kevin Doran says while there were no such homes in the Diocese he has no doubt that many women from the area were resident in them in other parts of the country.
He says it's for that reason he wants to join with his fellow Bishops and other religious leaders in asking for forgiveness on behalf of the Church for the way so many women in need, and their children, were hidden away and treated as if they didn't count.
The Bishop of Elphin also says that while the report points to a serious failure on behalf of the civil authorities to oversee the running of the homes, it's a source of deep sadness and shame that Church people contributed to creating and maintaining such a culture.
He says while no report can change the past, a good report, taken seriously, can and will change the future.

MyPlate is the government's newest food icon, and dietitians and experts argue that it's easier to understand than the "confusing" Food Guide Pyramid – which was originally introduced in 1992 and updated to "MyPyramid Food Guidance System" in 2005.
Critics of the Food Guide Pyramid have described it as confusing and difficult to understand. The original version, which is the more widely recognized pyramid, actually showed a hierarchy of the food groups, and was easier to understand. The updated 2005 version had vertical blocks, and a person stepping up steps (which was supposed to remind Americans to exercise).
According to the press release released yesterday by the USDA, MyPlate is an "uncomplicated symbol" and "easy-to-understand visual cue" that will help Americans adopt healthier eating habits that are consistent with the recently released 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
MyPlate is exactly what it sounds like. It's a plate that is divided up into four color-coded food categories: fruits, vegetables, grains, and protein. Next to the plate is a circle that represents dairy products.
MyPlate doesn't show "servings" or "portions" for its dietary recommendations. It just shows Americans what the food should look like on their plate – half of their plate should have fruits and vegetables.
1. Balance Calories – Enjoy eating your food, but consume fewer calories. Don't eat huge portions.
2. Make Healthier Food Choices – Make sure that half of your plate is fruits and vegetables, and at least 50 percent of your grains are whole grains. Instead of whole milk, choose fat-free or low-fat (1 percent) milk.
3. Reduce Salt and Sugar – Always compare the sodium (salt) content in foods you buy, such as bread, soup, and frozen meals. Try to choose foods that have lower salt numbers. Also, drink water instead of sugary drinks and sodas.
As part of this new initiative, the USDA (the U.S. Department of Agriculture) encourages you to visit its new website, ChooseMyPlate.gov. The USDA also encourages all Americans to take photos of their plates and share them on Twitter using the hash-tag #MyPlate. You can also share with your plate with the USDA via their Flickr Photo Group (www.flickr.com/people/usdagov).
What do you think of MyPlate? Do you think it's an awesome idea, or just dumb? Did you find the Food Guide Pyramid? Do you think Americans will follow this new guide, or just ignore it?
I am not very good with English but I get hold this really easy to understand .
Hi mates, I am for a second time here, and reading this piece of writing related to Search engine optimization, its also a good article, so keep it up.
I'm guessing there will be a lot of uneducated parents who will fill their kids plates like the diagram and force them to eat it "because it's healthy". Children eat smaller portions than adults and I don't think this will help end childhood obesity. Heck, adults shouldn't even be eating an entire plate full of food.


Contrary to the advice of many medical groups, more emergency departments are giving headache patients prescriptions for powerful narcotic painkillers, according to a new study.
Between 2001 and 2010, there was a 65 percent increase in emergency department use of narcotic prescriptions for headaches. Hydromorphone and oxycodone were two of the most frequently prescribed narcotics.
A number of groups, including the American College of Emergency Physicians and the American Academy of Neurology, say narcotics should not be used as a first-line treatment for headaches, HealthDay reports.
During the same period, there was no increase in ER prescriptions for non-narcotic pain relievers such as acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, or triptans (drugs used to treat migraines).
The study authors, who presented their findings at the American College of Medical Toxicology annual meeting, said they are concerned about the findings, in part because of the increasing rates of abuse, overdose and deaths due to narcotics.
"These findings are particularly concerning given the magnitude of increase in [narcotic painkiller] prescribing compared to the other non-addictive medications, whose use remained the same or declined," lead investigator Dr. Maryann Mazer-Amirshahi of George Washington University said in a news release.
Co-researcher Dr. Jeanmarie Perrone of the University of Pennsylvania said several factors could be contributing to the increased narcotic prescriptions for headaches, including an increased focus on pain management, patient satisfaction, and regulatory requirements.


Lady Gaga has teased details of her forthcoming artRave world tour on Twitter.
Mother Monster confirmed she will hit the road in support of her ARTPOP album in 2014, after she was forced to abandon the stage earlier this year due to a hip injury.
Taking to Twitter, the 27-year old revealed: "I <3 ARTPOP so much. I listen to it everyday. It has magical powers. instant good spirits. I take it everyday, right after my crazy pills.
"The tour will take us to another planet Galaxy-Space-Time Dance party as religion. A wild celebration of self-invention, of creative spirit."
The tour will take us to another planet Galaxy-Space-Time Dance party as religion. A wild celebration of self-invention, of creative spirit.
Gaga went on: "ARTPOP's a state of mind u must be willing for it to take over u. It bears no intellect. All feeling. Ur mind must be free to understand it.
"Let 2014 be the year u make a sculpture of you. You are a legend. Your self-invention matters. You are the artist of your own life. #ARTPOP."
Her tour is due to start in Florida on May 4 and she will visit a further 25 US cities on the jaunt.
More dates are due to be announced in the next few weeks, with tickets on sale Monday, December 9.

Insights from New System May Help Improve Speech Impairment in ALS, Other Disorders, Study Reports
by Jose Marques Lopes PhD | June 5, 2018
A new portable system provides insights into the altered tongue, lip, and jaw motion in amyotrohic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients with a speech disorder called dysarthria. The instrument could be valuable for both diagnosis and treatment of speech impairment.
The study, "Articulatory Range of Movement in Individuals With Dysarthria Secondary to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis," appeared in the American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology.
Dysarthria is characterized by poor articulation and respiration, as well as difficulty speaking, and slurred and slowed speech, which may be hard to understand. It can be caused by ALS and other nervous system conditions, including Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, and other disorders associated with facial paralysis or muscle weakness in the tongue and/or throat.
Scientists at Penn State University in Pennsylvania analyzed the space used by different articulators — the tongue, lips, and jaw — in 22 ALS patients who read a paragraph with all sounds in American English.
They used a 3D, portable instrument, called the Wave system, that simultaneously measures the movement of the tongue, lips and jaw while also recording sound. The instrument contains sensors attached to the tongue to track its movement during speech production. It's connected to a microphone and a computer, which stores the information.
Results revealed that, in patients with more severe dysarthria, there was less range of motion in the tongue, but more in the lower lip and jaw.
"This highlights the importance of range of motion for speech production, and indicates that if we change range of motion in people with the disorder, if we ask them to expand their overall work space for speech production, then we may see more understandable speech," Ji Min Lee, PhD, the study's lead author and an assistant professor of communication sciences and disorders at Penn State, said in a press release.
Lee said that although it had been previously assumed, the different range of motion in people with dysarthria had not been tested, adding that the research, an extension of a prior study with 14 ALS patients, "provides important evidence regarding the different amount of impairment across articulators as well as its high sensitivity to the severity of dysarthria. This has values for both intervention and diagnosis of dysarthria."
"The articulatory working space measure could be useful for estimating speech dysfunction in ALS," the researchers wrote in the study. The approach could also be used to develop ways to improve speech in patients with ALS and other neurological conditions, they believe.
"In order to help people with ALS use their speech as long as possible, we will continue to identify what types of movement will generate speech signals that are easier to understand," Lee said.
Lee added that the typical loss of speech with ALS worsening is accompanied by deteriorated tongue function, but relatively preserved jaw function. "These two articulators work together for speech production. Thus, we are trying to find a way to enhance their speech intelligibility by looking at tongue and jaw movement characteristics simultaneously," she said.
