De Luxemburgse parlementsverkiezingen van 2018 werden op 14 oktober 2018 gehouden. De kiezers moesten een nieuwe 60 leden tellende Kamer van Afgevaardigden kiezen.

Verloop
Over het algemeen leken de ontwikkelingen sterk op de tendensen in het naburige Duitsland: afname van de grote volkspartijen (CSV en LSAP) en tegelijkertijd toename van zowel de groene (Déi Gréng) als de rechts-conservatieve / rechts-populistische partijen (ADR). De liberale DP bleef redelijk stabiel, ondanks het verlies van een zetel. Déi Lénk (Links) slaagde erin een minimale winst te boeken, maar bleef gelijk qua zetelaantal. Opvallend was de winst van de Piratenpartij, die als nieuwkomer met twee zetels in de Kamer van Afgevaardigden kwam.

Op 16 oktober 2018 werd de zittende premier Xavier Bettel (DP) belast met de formatie van een nieuwe regering. Met de LSAP en Déi Gréng, de partijen waarmee hij vanaf 2013 geregeerd had in zijn eerste kabinet, werd overeen gekomen de coalitie voort te zetten. De CSV, die net als bij de vorige verkiezingen (2013) de grootste partij was geworden, werd hiermee voor de tweede keer op rij buitenspel gezet. De regering-Bettel-Schneider II trad aan op 5 december 2018.

The optimization algorithm "vopt" applied to any optimization problem is simple. I now outline my own version, which I call "s-vopt" because it "swings" from one level of opt local search to another.
Convert your solution representation to a bit array.
Go through each bit, flip it, and see if it improves the solution. If it does, keep the bit flipped and repeat until there are no more bits that can be flipped to reach a local maxima (assuming you're maximizing a fitness function). You have now reached a local 1-opt maxima.
Now flip each possible pair of bits, flip them, and see if the fitness rating improves. if it does, keep those bits flipped and go to step 2. If all the pairs have been tried without success continue to the next step.
Continue in this fashing, first trying to flip all possible triples, then quadruples, then quintuples, etc. until you want to stop. At each, if an improved solution is found, keep it and go to step 2. if not, continue on the next step.

Pope Francis to visit Africa February
NewsWorld News
Beloved John
No single govt can solve Nigeria's problems – Buhari
$1.32m fraud: Lawyer's absence stalls arraignment of Senatorial candidate
POPE Francis will be visiting the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and South Sudan between January 31 and February 5.
His trip to the two African countries was rescheduled after the initial visit, which was planned to take place in July 2022, was canceled due to a knee problem.
The Pope had apologised in June, vowing to reschedule the visit as soon as possible.
According to a report by the Catholic News Agency, an organisation that provides reports related to the Catholic Church to a global audience, Pope Francis will be visiting South Sudan alongside the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, and the Moderator of the Church of Scotland, Iain Greenshields.
The trip is termed "a pilgrimage of peace".
This visit will be the Pope's first visit to the East African country since it became an independent nation in 2011. But the Pope, in 2019, had brought leaders of the country together to resolve their differences.
However, Pope Francis's updated schedule for his visit to the Congo has been slightly altered. He will no longer be visiting the city of Goma, the capital of North Kivu province, as earlier planned.
About half of Congo's 90 million population are Catholics. Pope John Paul ll visited the country in 1980.
Also, 37 per cent of South Sudan's total population are Catholics.

South London and the birth of the educated footballer
This is an edited version of a piece I wrote for 4-4-2 magazine in September 2009
Whitgift School in Croydon is not the sort of place you'd expect to find the future of English football. This breeding ground for bright young talent is as far from the stereotypical back streets of football's urban north as you can get. Situated in 45 acres of parkland and boasting colonies of albino wallabies, flamingos and red squirrels, Whitgift School is one of the oldest and wealthiest private boys schools in the country. For centuries, it has produced outstanding academics and sportsmen. The latter have usually been rugby players such as England fly-half Danny Cipriani or cricketers (the county-standard pitch is used by Surrey CC), as befits the tradition of the English independent school, which leaves football to the hoi polloi of the comprehensive sector.
So how have four professional footballers emerged from Whitgift's ranks in the past few years? Why does the school currently count 13 children from different footballing academies – including Chelsea and Tottenham – among its 1,200 pupils? And how did the school attract three former footballers to work on its coaching staff?
To answer those questions, I entered the headmaster's study to meet Dr Christopher Barnett, the man who brought soccer to Whitgift. As we talk, exotic peacocks can be seen through the study window, heads bobbing up and down as they wander around on impeccable lawns. It is an extraordinary environment. In these conditions, Dr Barnett's belief he can 'change the mould and develop a new breed of middle-class footballer' seems entirely plausible.
The Australian connection
Dr Barnett's conversion from rugby to football came in Australia. 'In 1996 I went out to a school in Parramatta,' he says. 'I was walking round the grounds and it was rugby as far as you could see – rugby match after rugby match after rugby match. But then I turned the corner and there was soccer being played. So I thought, if they can do it…'
Convinced that if something is worth doing, it's worth doing properly, Dr Barnett looked for a coach and found Colin Pates, the Chelsea and Arsenal centre-back, who had retired with a knee injury. A posh school in the suburbs is not where you'd expect to find a hard-bitten former pro, and Pates admits: 'Whitgift is quite alien to some of us, because we had state school educations. It was intimidating, and not just for the boys.' But he jumped at the opportunity.
'The headmaster asked me to take a sixth-form team on Wednesday afternoons,' he says. 'I asked if there were any goalposts, pitches, teams or even footballs, and we didn't have anything. So we had to start from scratch, pretty much teach them the rules. They were rugby boys playing football, so these were quite aggressive games. But after three years we introduced fixtures and we've never looked back.'
Introducing football to a rugby school for the first time in 350 years was no easy task and Pates admits that 'there was always a concept that we'd bring in swearing and fighting, but we've had none of that. History told me it was going to be very difficult to change people's attitudes, but if you know you've got the support from the top man, the head, you can slowly change the perception of football.' And the Headmaster – motivated by 'old-fashioned esprit de corps' as well as the desire to have the newly fashionable sport of football on the syllabus – gave it his full support.
As football cascaded through the school, the coaching team expanded to include John Humphrey, a right-back for Charlton and Crystal Palace, and Steve Kember, the former Chelsea and Palace midfielder. 'It showed that we were engaging with how we would be a football school, but a different kind of football school,' says Dr Barnett. 'What I wanted to do was provide discipline and a serious education. We wanted to tell footballers who were coming to Whitgift: "Yes, but…" and the "but" is that you are going to work.'
The coming of Moses
Whitgift began to offer scholarships and bursaries to help parents of talented young players pay the £13,266 annual fee. It also established an informal relationship with Crystal Palace, with some of the club's outstanding talent getting recommended for places at the school. David Muir, Education and Welfare Officer at Crystal Palace, explains 'Whitgift is flexible and open-minded,' he says. 'Private schools are generally better than state schools at supporting the academies, offering excellent sports training and balancing that with academic work.'
By 2007, two Whitgift pupils (Victor Moses and Lee Hills) were in the Palace first team. But education was still paramount. 'A lot of these boys are outstanding academically even if some of them can come here with what appears to be a relatively low IQ,' says Dr Barnett. 'But if you work with them and give them belief and encouragement, they can soar.'
Moses, now playing in the Premier League with Wigan, arrived at the school as an 11-year-old orphaned asylum seeker from Nigeria predicted to get no GCSEs at A-C and ended it as an England youth international with GCSE results above the national average. Dr Barnett is adamant that a good education and football skills are mutually beneficial. 'We did a correlation study on pupils' academic expectation on entry and then factored in how much they participate outside the classroom,' he says. 'And those boys that were more heavily involved in sport did far better academically – quite the reverse of what you might expect. Received wisdom is that if you do too much sport, you'll damage their education, but that wasn't the case.'
As for what education can do for your football, he cites the words of an FA Cup-winning manager, who watched Whitgift win the Schools Cup in 2005, when they beat Healing School 5-0 (Moses scored all five). 'Lawrie McMenemy said to me that if he's got a choice between a footballer without a brain and a footballer with a brain, he'll always go for the one with a brain, because he knows he'll follow instructions and understand tactics and you'll get far more from him.'
Muir says that 'previously, you were either seen as a sportsman or an academic, but our best players have always had the potential to be high-achievers academically as well.' This backs up Dr Barnett's claim that 'the managers of the academies want their boys at Whitgift. Because as well as getting good football training and terrific facilities, they're going to get discipline and they're going to get structure and they're going to get their qualifications.'
It is this that will provide the new type of footballer desired by Dr Barnett. 'You know that if they were in the state sector they would get lost. Football would be all they had and they'd probably end up with nothing, no career and no qualifications; here, they can end up with 10 GCSEs and still make it as a footballer. And that is one of the key differences in how they will conduct themselves on the pitch and what image they provide for football. If you get enough kids doing this, you could change things.'
The movement is gathering place. Other private schools – including local rival Trinity and Ardingly College in Sussex – have started to follow Whitgift's lead.
Finding the kids
So how does Whitgift recruit its talent? Muir says that 'Palace put forward one or two players every year. We have to find kids who are both outstanding footballers and with a potential to do well academically because they have to pass the entrance exam. The parents pay the fees, though they can be helped by scholarships or wealth-related bursary schemes.'
Other relationships are less formal, and sometimes clubs foot the fees. And sometimes, the players are already at Whitgift before the clubs spot them such as Stefan Amokwandoh, a 13-year-old at Charlton.
A close relationship between school and academy is vital. The school's fixtures are played midweek to avoid clashing with academy games, while academies benefit from the high standard of coaching the players get from the school.
Whitgift insists that all pupils play in school fixtures, compete in all sports and do their homework. 'I have to work harder than the other boys at Chelsea,' says Joel Witele, a 14-year-old who also excels at rugby. 'When I get homework I have to concentrate and make sure I do it.'
For those football academies accused in a recent book ('Every Boy's Dream' by Chris Green) of offering too many boys nothing but disappointment and educational underachievement, you can see why Whitgift is so attractive.
'Look Sir, no litter!'
The notion of privately educated footballers no longer seems strange to Pates and Humphrey, even if it must to some of the school teams they come up against ('We played a local state school,' said Pates, 'and one kid said: "Look Sir, no litter!'). Humphrey says: 'We have quite a few guys at Charlton [where he is an academy coach] who go to private schools. If you have two boys of the same ability, you pick the brighter one because they'll learn quicker, so we're moving away from state schools monopolising football. There's a lot of money out there, and parents want to give their kids the best education they can.'
Pates agrees: 'A lot of footballers are sending their kids to independent schools. Working-class parents are earning money and putting their kids through private school. We've had [Brentford manager] Andy Scott's boy here, Ian Wright's boy, Steve Coppell's – there are lots of them and its spreading into football.'
Muir concurs: 'It's great to see the kids get an opportunity I never had. It's not what people might perceive of from an independent school, it's not a bunch of boys with plums in their mouths, it's just normal kids whose parents want them to do really well and provide them the best opportunity to do so.'
Another motivation for Pates and Humphrey is the experiences they had as players. 'A lot of players from our generation had nothing to fall back on when they came out our game,' says Pates. 'There was also nothing in place when we were young – if you didn't make it, that was that. So we ensure that our players have the opportunity to be everything they want to be, even when they leave. Rhys Coleman was released by Charlton, went to Glenn Hoddle's academy in Spain and didn't quite make it, so we got him a trial with Palace. It's like aftercare. We try and help.' Another former pupil managed to put himself through university with the money he earned from semi-professional football.
It's all part of a package that Pates and Dr Barnett believe to be unprecedented. 'You have to be an exceptional footballer to make it these days,' says Pates. 'So we want to give them the best opportunity to be a footballer, but also give them a magnificent education so if they don't sign scholarship forms they have something to fall back on. It works for us, it works for the academies and it works for the families.'
The question now is will it work for football.

Lauric Acid - goodie
What-it-does: anti-acne, surfactant/cleansing, emulsifying | Irritancy: 1 | Comedogenicity: 4
A 12 carbon length fatty acid that can be found naturally in coconut milk, coconut oil, laurel oil, and palm kernel oil. It's also in breast milk. As a skincare ingredient, it can be used as an emulsifier or as a cleansing agent.
What's more, there is emerging research about lauric acid being a good anti-acne ingredient. A 2009 study found that the lowest concentration to prevent evil acne-causing P. acnes growth of lauric acid is over 15 times lower than that of gold standard anti-acne ingredient benzoyl peroxide.
Though the studies are only in-vitro (made in the lab, not on real people), and it also has a high comedogenicity index, it might be worth a try if you are prone to inflamed acne (the type that's caused by P. acnes bacteria).
What-it-does: surfactant/cleansing, viscosity controlling, emulsion stabilising | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 1
A handy helper ingredient (a polymer, i.e. big molecule from repeated subunits) that is used to stabilize emulsions as well as to thicken up products. It can also stabilize foam in cleansing products.
Also-called: Poly Vinyl Pyrollidone | What-it-does: viscosity controlling, emulsion stabilising | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 0
These three letters stand for Poly Vinyl Pyrollidone, a big molecule created from repeated units of Vinyl Pyrrolidone, aka VP. Its main thing is being an important film former. It was the first synthetic polymer introduced as a hair fixative in the 1950s instead of insect-derived Shellac.
So PVP likes to attach itself to surfaces such as the hair and the skin and forms a nice, thin, even film there. The film is useful for holding a hairstyle or extending the wear of color cosmetics and sunscreens. The disadvantage of PVP is that the film is a bit brittle and that PVP loves water (hygroscopic) that tends to destroy the film. This is the reason why hair styled with a PVP based product loses its style in high humidity. To fix this problem, there are now several versions of VP containing film formers that are less sensitive to humidity, for example, the molecule called VP/VA Copolymer.
Olive Oil PEG-7 Esters
An olive oil-derived, water-soluble, but "oily" liquid that works both as an emollient (makes skin nice and smooth) and as a co-emulsifier.
It's claimed to offer a distinctive skin smoothness and long-term moisturizing effects while also being great at solubilizing fragrances into water-based products or being a co-emulsifier in oil-in-water emulsions.
What-it-does: surfactant/cleansing, emulsifying, perfuming | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 3
A 14 carbon length fatty acid that can be naturally found in nutmeg, palm kernel oil, coconut oil and butter fat. It's used as a foam building cleansing agent. Paula Begoun writes that it can be a bit drying to the skin.
Egg Shell Membrane Extract
Cocamide DEA - icky
What-it-does: surfactant/cleansing, viscosity controlling, emulsifying, emulsion stabilising
A cleansing agent whose main thing is being a very good team player next to other (anionic) cleaning agents and working as an excellent foam booster and viscosity builder.
The downside of Cocamide DEA is that it may contain residual content of Diethanolamine, a secondary amine known to be a potential source of harmful nitrosamines. But do not panic, Cocamide DEA is considered safe as used in cosmetics, still, the cosmetic industry is actively looking at alternatives and it is used less and less often.
What-it-does: emulsifying, surfactant/cleansing
A castor oil derived, white, lard-like helper ingredient that is used as a solubilizer to put fragrances (those are oil loving things) into water-based products such as toners.
Trehalose - goodie
A type of sugar that has water-binding properties and helps to keep your skin hydrated.
Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit/Leaf Extract
What-it-does: astringent
Saccharum Officinarum (Sugar Cane) Extract - goodie
Also-called: Sugar Cane Extract | What-it-does: moisturizer/humectant
Also known as Sugarcane, Saccharum Officinarum is a handy moisturizing ingredient mostly used as a humectant. This means that it can help the skin to attract water and then to hold onto it.
It bears a close relationship to AHA superstar, Glycolic Acid that can be derived from it, so it's often claimed that Sugarcane Extract itself also exfoliates and brightens the skin. We could not find any research studies to back this up, but Saccharum Officinarum very often comes to the formula combined with other acid containing plant extracts trade named ACB Fruit Mix. According to manufacturer data, 5% of the fruit mix increases cellular renewal by 24%, while 4% pure Glycolic did the same by 33%. So maybe, a tiny bit of exfoliation, but if you want proven efficacy, stick to pure acids.
Also-called: Sugar Maple Extract
The extract coming from the Sugar Maple tree, the one whose leaf is on the Canadian flag and gives us maple syrup.
The main reason it is used in skin care is that it contains natural AHA acids, namely Malic and Tartaric, and hence why it supposedly helps slough off dead skin cells in combination with other acid-containing fruit extracts as part of the trade name ACB Fruit Mix. The manufacturer claims that both malic and tartaric increase elasticity in the skin, but from our research, the only confirmed uses of these acids are as pH adjusters, especially in the tiny amounts they can be found in the Fruit Mix (less than 1%).
Also-called: Orange Fruit Extract
We have to start by writing that there are about 900 citrus species in the world, and plenty of them are used to make different kinds of extracts used in cosmetics. This particular one, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Fruit Extract is a very common ingredient, however, the species "Citrus Aurantium Dulcis" seem to exist only on ingredient lists and the real world calls this guy Citrus Sinensis or, you know, orange.
To complicate matters further, there are lots of varieties and lots of extraction methods, so it is a bit hard to know what you are getting with this one, but we will try our best to summarize the possibilities.
A very common scenario is that Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Fruit Extract is on the ingredient list for its mild, natural exfoliant properties. It contains mainly citric acid and some malic acid, AHA exfoliants known for their skin renewing properties. If that's the case, it is usually combined with other AHA containing fruits such as bilberry, sugar cane, lemon, and sugar maple in a super popular ingredient mix trade named ACB Fruit Mix.
But orange fruit is loaded with lots of other active compounds with a wide variety of possible effects. A well-known one is the antioxidant vitamin C, aka ascorbic acid, but the dosage will vary based on the extraction method, and it's possible that some of the ascorbic acid content will degrade before extraction process even takes place. If you want vitamin C in your skincare, that is smart, but do not rely on orange fruit extract for it.
Flavonoids (hesperidin, naringin, luteolin, and ferulic acid) are also nice active compounds with possible antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and vasoprotective effects. Some of them (namely hesperidin and luteolin) might even have skin brightening activity by inhibiting tyrosinase, the famous enzyme needed for melanin production.
The orange extract also contains carbohydrates, aka sugars (mostly glucose, fructose, and sucrose, but also some bigger polysaccharides such as pectin) giving the ingredient some moisturizing properties.
Some essential oil content is usually also present in citrus fruit extracts, which means a nice scent and antibacterial properties, but also some questionable compounds such as fragrance allergen limonene or phototoxic compound bergaptene. If the amount is big enough to worry about is questionable, probably not, however, the same question applies to all the nice beneficial compounds.
Overall, we think that the orange fruit extract is a very complex ingredient with lots of potentially good things in it, but we could not find proper in-vivo (made on real people) studies made with standardized extracts to validate what it really does or does not under real-world use cases.
Also-called: Papaya Fruit Extract
Dmdm Hydantoin - icky
A controversial preservative that has formaldehyde-releasing properties. It works great against bacteria and also has mild fungicide abilities.
Cosmetic chemist, Colin wrote a great article about formaldehyde and DMDM Hydantoin. He writes that formaldehyde is the perfect example of "the dose makes the poison" principle. It's a natural stuff that can also be found in fresh fruits and vegetables, and eating it in tiny amounts is totally ok. However, in larger amounts (according to Wikipedia 30 mL of a solution containing 37% formaldehyde) it's deadly.
The amount of formaldehyde used in cosmetics either neat or through formaldehyde-releasing preservatives is tiny. Probably that is why the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Broad concluded both in 1988 and in 2008 that DMDM Hydantoin is "safe as used in cosmetics".
However, Colins argues that in the case of formaldehyde-releasing preservatives, formaldehyde is released slowly and the skin has probably not evolved to deal with that. The lingering formaldehyde might be toxic to the Langerhans Cells that are important for the skin's defense system. Another potential issue is that formaldehyde-releasers might also release other things while reacting with amino acids in the skin that is probably the explanation why some people are not allergic to formaldehyde but are allergic to formaldehyde-releasing preservatives. These are all theories, far from proven facts, but we feel that there are some justified reasons why formaldehyde-releasing preservatives and Dmdm Hydantoin count as controversial.
All in all, it's up to you to decide if you wanna avoid this preservative group or not. If so, there are other, less risky and more skin-friendly options out there.

I have used these versatile trousers for a range of activities but they came into their own on a recent trekking holiday. They looked good enough to wear casually as I travelled, were comfy to travel in but also performed on some days of long walking and variable weather. In terms of design the adjustable waist is really good for fit, although with a very heavy rucksack it could get a bit uncomfortable and needed rearranging. The roll-up snap tabs at calf height are really useful. They are meant for foot placement visibility during climbing, and they can also be double folded to raise the hem even more when you just want to hop on a bike. However, they are also useful for cooling down; I just wore these when my friends were changing into shorts in the middle of the day. They felt plenty cool enough in moderate temperatures and were breathable. The articulated knees also helped with freedom of movement.
The best thing about these trousers are the fabric. The four way stretch make them the most comfy walking trousers I have worn and suitable for climbing too. Light moisture rolls off the fabric, yet they are very breathable. I have really taken these trousers through their paces, sliding down rocks on my bum, not washing them after continual use, getting ash all over them and after a wash they still look and feel as if they are off the peg. I thoroughly recommend them.


Legendary singer and guitarist Glen Campbell's final studio album, Adiós, will be released June 9th on UMe, capping off an extraordinary career that has spanned more than five decades and 50 million albums sold. The album will be released on CD, vinyl and digitally and is available for pre-order beginning today.
For Campbell's final recording session, Glen and Kim turned to Glen's longtime banjo player and family friend Carl Jackson to helm the production, play guitar and help his old friend. In preparation for the recording, Jackson, who joined Campbell's band in the early '70s as an 18-year-old banjo player, laid down some basic tracks and vocals for Campbell to study and practice. Jackson encouraged him every step of the way and although Campbell struggled at times because of his progressing dementia, he was clearly ecstatic about being in the studio. The 12-track collection features songs that Campbell always loved but never got a chance to record, including several from Jimmy Webb, his longtime collaborator behind some of his biggest hits like "Wichita Lineman" "By The Time I Get To Phoenix," and "Galveston." In addition to the bittersweet title track, "Adiós," first popularized by Linda Ronstadt, Campbell also sings Webb's longing love song "Just Like Always" and country weeper "It Won't Bring Her Back." He revisits "Postcard From Paris" with his sons Cal and Shannon and daughter Ashley singing the line, "I wish you were here," resulting in a powerful and heartfelt message of a family singing together one last time.
Adiós was a labor of love and a way for Glen Campbell to have one more chance to do what he loves to do and leave a musical gift for fans. Campbell, who turns 81 on April 22nd, is in the final stages of Alzheimer's disease. He lives in Nashville where he is surrounded by his loving family and getting the very best of care.

I want the form to submit when a file is selected, but I have no clue how to invoke the form submission with the input onChange event (tbh I'm not even sure that would be the adequate way of doing it).
Here is the code:

          <Form onSubmit={handleSubmit((data) => updateProfilePicture(data))}>
            <IconButton
              component='label'
              htmlFor='image-input'
              style={{
                position: "absolute",
                bottom: "0",
                right: "0",
                backgroundColor: "#eee",
              }}
            >
              <Input
                type='file'
                id='image-input'
                name='file'
                style={{ display: "none" }}
                inputRef={register}
              />
              <PhotoCameraIcon style={{ fontSize: "25px" }} />
            </IconButton>
          </Form>

Here what it looks like:

note: there is two forms, one for the image, one for the data, I don't want to handle the through the "update" button, otherwise it would be one form only and I wouldn't be having this question

A: You can give the form a id and submit the form per javascript:
document.getElementById("imageForm").submit();
or handle the data without submit:
onChange={() => { handleSubmit(this.files) }}

          <Form id="imageForm" onSubmit={handleSubmit((data) => updateProfilePicture(data))}>
            <IconButton
              component='label'
              htmlFor='image-input'
              style={{
                position: "absolute",
                bottom: "0",
                right: "0",
                backgroundColor: "#eee",
              }}
            >
              <Input
                type='file'
                id='image-input'
                name='file'
                style={{ display: "none" }}
                inputRef={register}
                onChange={() => { document.getElementById("imageForm").submit(); }}
                // or:
                onChange={() => { handleSubmit(this.files) }}
              />
              <PhotoCameraIcon style={{ fontSize: "25px" }} />
            </IconButton>
          </Form>

A: Submitting forms programmatically is not the way to go specially within react. But for the sake of it you could achieve something like this by dispatching a submit event.
<Form ref={formRef} onSubmit={handleSubmit((data) => updateProfilePicture(data))}>
   ...

  <Input
     type='file'
     id='image-input'
     name='file'
     style={{ display: "none" }}
     onChange={(e) => formRef.dispatchEvent(new Event('submit'))}
     inputRef={register}
   />
  </Form>

better yet, if you do not want to fire any sort of html form validation, putting this file input inside a <form/> is not mandatory. You could call your updateProfilePicture(data) function directly inside of <Input/> s onChange handler.

A: You don't need a form to submit after image is added.
you can just use the input field and add onChange event handler get the Image details. Check this out if interested

I just noticed that our site is now integrated with a facebook connect login. This feature is something that wanted D3scene to be enabled with.
But I think it is under construction is yet to be done because I tried connecting via FB connect and ended up with an error. I hope the admins are working on it.
How does it help for new members?
*Enables easy connect and signup process with our site, it also gives an end to the tiring process of entering details.
*When people connect with their real facebook profile, it also ensures the authenticity of the user which also improves credentials in easy identification while trading.
Few advantages of content sharing and interaction as well.

There was such interest in the first screening for Ryan Gosling's directorial debut, Lost River, in the Un Certain Regard section of the Cannes Film Festival that people began lining up Tuesday afternoon much earlier than usual and the Debussy theater was full 15 minutes before showtime for one of the most anticipated films — and directorial debuts — of this year's lineup in any section. Running at top speed down the Croisette after a Foxcatcher lunch at the Carlton (see below), I raced over there but could only find a fold-out seat in the front row. Worse than that, an equally tardy — and loudly complaining — Un Certain Regard juror almost got tossed out by an overzealous usher until she was saved by two more savvy ushers as the lights were going down and given a seat on the other side of the theater where someone (another juror?) was saving a single spot for her.
But after seeing the film, I don't think this juror would have had much to worry about in missing this thing even if she were thrown out. I have more than a Certain Regard for Gosling's talent and smart sensibilities as an actor. He's easily one of the best and biggest risk takers of his generation. The filmography speaks for itself, including his Oscar-nominated turn in Half-Nelson, the inventive Lars And The Real Girl, Blue Valentine, (the wildly underrated) The Place Beyond The Pines and on and on. As a director, however — well, I guess I still admire him as an actor. Here he seems to be just imitating stuff he's seen on the screen, not in life.
Lost River is an odd hybrid of Beasts Of The Southern Wild and the Gosling-starring dud Only God Forgives that was in the main competition last year from director Nicolas Winding Refn (now a juror this year but not in Un Certain Regard), along with about 30 other movies you've seen and discarded. Refn, by the way, told press he planned to go to Tuesday night's premiere of his friend and star's movie and was "sure he would like it". Many major critics had another thought and were harsh on the film, which seems to ape styles from Tarantino to, yes, Refn (who also directed Gosling in the superior Drive) to Eli Roth. But in reality, the whole film, while impressively full of cinematic language, just doesn't seem to know what to do with all its moving parts. And it is lit so darkly for 90% of the time that it's hard to tell what's happening. Benoit Debie, who is French cinema's enfant terrible Gaspar Noe's cinematographer, carries over the worst habits of that miserable auteur (sorry, Noe fans). An overly stylized sound design doesn't help matters. On the plus side are great atmospheric settings and a terrific choice of music throughout, which really tries to bring the film up. Original title was the much better How To Catch A Monster since Lost River is just too generic and is reminiscent of such film titles as Mystic River, Wild River, The River, River Wild, The River's Edge, Frozen River, River Of No Return and several other River movies, all better movies than this one.
This is the first film this year where I heard boos, but to be fair there were some cheers mixed in. One wag called it "choos". Another journalist kindly said of Gosling's debut, "sometimes it's good to get things out of your system". But Lost River also had its fans among the critic set, so not all is lost. But Gosling, if he reads this stuff on Twitter and various websites, just might be wondering How To Catch A Break right about now. With Gosling only behind the camera and no name box office draws, you have to wonder what Warner Bros (which is releasing stateside) will do with this (though there's a Godzilla-like head seen in the movie, for nice corporate synergy). It is times like these the studio has to wish it had kept Warner Independent. Any attempt to do an Oscar campaign would be fruitless, and it doesn't appear the studio will have the critics on their side. Nevertheless I am betting that Gosling, with a better script, might have real potential as a director, so on to the next one for this talented artist.
Before the Lost River debut, I made it to the Foxcatcher lunch and got to talk it up with director Bennett Miller, star Steve Carell, and producer Jon Kilik, who is having a hell of a Cannes between the ecstatic reception for this film and the big splash for the next Hunger Games sequel Mockingjay Part 1, which had a huge party at a Russian mansion in Cap d'Antibes on Saturday. Miller told me what a "mind blowing" experience coming to Cannes for the first time has been. He's clearly on a high due to reaction to the November 14 Sony Pictures Classics release. It's almost a year to the day from their original announced premiere at the 2013 AFI Fest, before Miller asked to have more time to shape the film. He told me it has worked out for the best. This film will be on the circuit all season long. And then there is the terrific Carell, who could empty forests with all the reams of Oscar buzz his performance has generated among writers at the fest — and that includes me.
SPC still is determining which category, but I think it should be Best Actor. He seems to be the center of the film. I asked Carell about all things Oscar, and he cringed. "I guess I am going to have to come up with some sort of standard statement," he said. "But I think it's just premature to talk about it, and the Oscars are a slippery slope." Of course it is understandable Carell would be cautious: He sat at the Emmys and managed to lose six times for his brilliant lead performance in The Office. He also had high praise for Vanessa Redgrave, who has the briefest of screen time as his mother but is so powerful she could pull a supporting nomination herself — and maybe break the record for the shortest screen time in the category. Nevertheless, their (somewhat improvised) scene together is what screen acting is all about.

Heat wave: four cooling centers in Randolph County
Moberly Monitor-Index
The National Weather Service has issued an excessive heat warning that will remain in effect until 8 p.m. Saturday.
High temperatures will likely be between upper 90-100 degrees with nighttime lows in the upper 70-80 degrees. Heat index values will reach between 105-110 degrees each afternoon.
There are four cooling centers in Randolph County listed by the Missouri Department of Health: the Huntsville Library at 102 East Library St. in Huntsville, Moberly Area Community College at 101 College Ave. in Moberly, the Randolph County Health Department at 1319 East Highway 24 in Moberly and the Senior Americans Multipurpose Center at 205 Farror St. in Moberly. The Moberly Public Library at 111 North 4th St. in Moberly will also be available during its regular hours as an area for people to cool off, Little Dixie Regional Libraries Director Racheal Grime said.
Heat illnesses will be likely for those spending prolonged time outside or time indoors in non-air conditioned locations. The prolonged heat could be especially dangerous for those most susceptible, including young children and the elderly.
Residents are urged to take extra precautions when working or spending time outside. If possible, outside strenuous activities should be rescheduled to early morning or the evening. Residents also are urged to know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke, to wear light weight and loose fitting clothing when possible and to drink plenty of water.
To reduce risk during outdoor work, Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an emergency, call 911.
An excessive heat warning marks a prolonged period of dangerously hot temperatures. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity will combine to create a dangerous situation in which heat illnesses are likely. Residents are urged to drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun and check up on relatives and neighbors.
Young children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles under any circumstances. This is especially true during warm or hot weather when car interiors can reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes.

Grant Thornton UK LLP has topped the Experian CorpFin league table as the number one financial adviser to UK companies by deal volume for the fourth successive year, advising on 128 publically disclosed deals in 2015.
The number of international and private equity deals led by Grant Thornton remained stable in 2015, both equating to around a quarter of Grant Thornton's overall disclosed deal total. The firm remained strong in both the Technology, Media and Telecommunications and Industrial sectors, with 27% and 30% of deals being completed respectively.
The UK deal market is the most active it has been since the beginning of the credit crunch, producing a 56% increase in total deal value on 2014 and reaching the highest recorded total since 2000, according to Experian CorpFin. A 10.3% increase in the total number of deals completed in the market indicates the strength of the economy despite the political uncertainty caused by the general election in the first half of the year.
Ali Sharifi, Partner and Head of Corporate Finance Advisory at Grant Thornton UK LPP, said "We are thrilled to have retained our ranking as number one financial adviser to UK companies for the fourth consecutive year. Our teams' continued dedication to focusing exclusively on our clients' goals and their in-depth knowledge of key sector value drivers really differentiates us from the market and this is a testimony to their great work.
"Despite an uncertain start to the year we can see that deal activity has rebounded sharply in 2015. A stable political backdrop and supportive financial and economic conditions underpinned a strong level of M&A in the second half of the year and we are optimistic that deal activity will remain buoyant in the coming 12 months."
Grant Thornton's Corporate Finance team has received a number of other accolades during 2015, including being named Financial Due Diligence Provider of the year by the unquote" British Private Equity Awards and were triple award winners at this year's MCA Awards.


It's Thursday and that means Booktastic Thursday Link Up!
October is definitely going to involve a lot of books for me. As I mentioned in a previous post I'm taking part in two readathons this month; BYOBthon and the ebookathon.
In case you missed it, here's my TBR for BYOBthon. I'll be sharing my TBR for ebookathon next week.
Bring on the reading frenzy!
I'm also taking part in Blogtober this month so you can expect daily book related posts from me here on the blog too.
We're here today for the Booktastic Thursday Link Up.


Join this authentic tour where you'll learn to fish the traditional way which some still do to this day. You will be driven down to the harbor where you will venture out on the thick ice, where there will be drilled holes for you to fish through.
The three most important ingredients are; digging a hole, fishing gear and most of all patience. This gives you a great chance to enjoy the fresh breeze and feel the ice underneath your feet. Enjoy the silence around you while maybe be in luck by catching your first fish in Greenland. It is a therapeutic experience, with the sun on one side and the town on the other. You might even be so lucky there might be some locals out on the ice as well, which could be a great opportunity for a chat.
While fishing the guide will prepare a hot beverage while telling a good fishing story or two.
When out on the Ice, it is always good to have an extra sweater. And don't forget hats, scarf and gloves!

Reverend Paisley
09/22/2014 By Brian Wilson
Like many others who have commented on the death of Ian Paisley I do so with very mixed emotions.
I have experienced his generosity, kindness and enjoyed his sense of humour. I admire his family values and my thoughts and prayers are with Baroness Paisley and his family at this time.
His greatest achievement has been to lead his party into powersharing with Sinn Fein. I do not believe any other DUP leader would have had the respect or authority to achieve this. When he decided to make this courageous move he did it wholeheartedly and with a determination to make it work. I believe he stood down too soon and before power sharing was firmly established .His commitment and leadership is badly missed and this loss has resulted in backsliding and the present sense of deadlock.
My earliest memories of Rev Paisley are not so positive. I recall him as a divisive figure and disliked intensly his vicious attacks on the Presbyterian Church and its leaders. These attacks based on a combination of misrepresentation distortion and falsehood helped to destabilize and create fear within our community.
Similarly in the political field when working for Bertie McConnell the Pro O'Neill in the 1969 election candidate we were subjected to considerable abuse as Paisley supporters protested against O'Neill's much needed reforms.
These protests continued and increased and were divisive, sectarian and created a climate of fear and resentment. Locally he organised a giant rally outside St Galls to protest at the presence of the local Catholic priest at a meeting to discuss the lack of facilities in the west Bangor area. His oratory aroused the crowd and when I made a comment I was ejected over the hedge.
As an Alliance councillor I continued to oppose the more extreme aspects of Paisleyism and as a delegate to the 1980 Atkins talks at Stormont I experienced both sides of Rev Paisley. I was giving the delegates a paper on power sharing and pointed out how successful it was in Switzerland. He started to shout me down with bellows of rubbish and nonsense. My presentation was destroyed but an hour later I met him in the corridor and he was smiling and affable.
The affable nature returned in 2007 when I as a newly elected MLA congratulated him on his courageous decision to accept power sharing and promised him my support. Following this I saw the other side of Rev Paisley no longer the divider, the bully the agitator but now the reconciler and the peacemaker determined to move forward and create a peaceful Northern Ireland.
The new Paisley was warm hearted and generous with his time.I recall hosting a schools chess championship in the Long Gallery at Stormont when Rev Paisley passed by. The children recognised him and were delighted to see him. He and Eileen stopped and spent almost half an hour talking to the children and getting photographs taken with them. This is the Ian Paisley I wish to remember.
The man of courage who decided to lead the DUP into powersharing with its traditional enemies. The man with the vision to move away from conflict towards reconciliation. The man who was determined to provide a better future for our young people and to use his great skills of leadership oratory and persuasion to achieve it.

As culinary resident at Montalvo Arts Center last month, Sita Bhaumik invited Imin Yeh and I to come down to collaborate on a full sensory lunch. She made a meal pulling from ingredients included in her coloring book of favorite foods. Dessert began with serving guests a single Miracle Berry which, once dissolved, were offered a selection of fruits, and vegetables, cheeses and edible flowers to taste. Lemons were like gum drops, cheese like frosting, sour grass turned sweet. Pound cake was served as a palate cleanser between tastings. We were so lucky to have Airyka Rockefeller document the afternoon from prepping in the kitchen through dessert experience.
