SEPTEMBER 12, 2001, stunned rescue workers continued to search for bodies in the World Trade Center's smoking rubble a day after a terrorist attack that shut down the financial capital, badly damaged the Pentagon and left thousands dead. President Bush, branding the attacks in New York and Washington "acts of war," said "this will be a monumental struggle of good versus evil" and that "good will prevail."
In 1846, Elizabeth Barrett secretly married Robert Browning at St. Marylebone Church in London.
In 1942, during World War II, a German U-boat off West Africa torpedoed the RMS Laconia, which was carrying Italian prisoners of war, British soldiers and civilians; it's estimated more than 1,600 people died while some 1,100 survived after the ship sank. The German crew, joined by other U-boats, began rescue operations. (On September 16, the rescue effort came to an abrupt halt when the Germans were attacked by a U.S. Army bomber; as a result, U-boat commanders were ordered to no longer rescue civilian survivors of submarine attacks.)
In 1959, the Soviet Union launched its Luna 2 space probe, which made a crash landing on the moon. The TV Western series "Bonanza" premiered on NBC.
In 1962, in a speech at Rice University in Houston, President John F. Kennedy reaffirmed his support for the manned space program, declaring: "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard."
In 1974, Emperor Haile Selassie was deposed by Ethiopia's military after ruling for 58 years.
In 1977, South African black student leader and anti-apartheid activist Steve Biko, 30, died while in police custody, triggering an international outcry.
In 1987, reports surfaced that Democratic presidential candidate Joseph Biden had borrowed, without attribution, passages of a speech by British Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock (KIHN'-ik) for one of his own campaign speeches. (The Kinnock report, along with other damaging revelations, prompted Biden to drop his White House bid.)
In 1992, the space shuttle Endeavour blasted off, carrying with it Mark Lee and Jan Davis, the first married couple in space; Mae Jemison, the first black woman in space; and Mamoru Mohri, the first Japanese national to fly on a U.S. spaceship. Police in Peru captured Shining Path founder Abimael Guzman. Actor Anthony Perkins died in Hollywood at age 60.
In 1994, a stolen, single-engine Cessna crashed into the South Lawn of the White House, coming to rest against the executive mansion; the pilot, Frank Corder, was killed.
In 2003, In the Iraqi city of Fallujah, U.S. forces mistakenly opened fire on vehicles carrying police, killing eight of them.
In 2008, a Metrolink commuter train struck a freight train head-on in Los Angeles, killing 25 people. (Federal investigators said the Metrolink engineer, Robert Sanchez, who was among those who died, had been text-messaging on his cell phone and ran a red light shortly before the crash.)
In 2012, the U.S. dispatched an elite group of Marines to Tripoli, Libya, after the mob attack in Benghazi that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans. President Barack Obama strongly condemned the violence, and vowed to bring the killers to justice; Republican challenger Mitt Romney accused the administration of showing weakness in the face of tumultuous events in the Middle East.
Ten years ago: Tens of thousands of protesters marched to the U.S. Capitol, showing their disdain for President Barack Obama's health care plan. The president, keeping up the drumbeat for his proposal, told a packed rally in Minneapolis, "I will not accept the status quo." Serena Williams' U.S. Open title defense ended with a bizarre loss to Kim Clijsters after Williams went into a tirade against a line judge who'd called her for a foot fault; following her outburst, Williams was penalized a point for unsportsmanlike conduct, ending the match, 6-4, 7-5.
Five years ago: A South African judge found Oscar Pistorius guilty of culpable homicide, or negligent killing, in the shooting death of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp and declared the double-amputee Olympian not guilty of murder. (The verdict was overturned and replaced with a murder conviction by South Africa's Supreme Court; Pistorius is serving a 13-year prison sentence.) Ian Paisley, 88, the divisive Protestant firebrand preacher who had devoted his life to thwarting compromise with Catholics in Northern Ireland only to became a pivotal peacemaker in his twilight years, died in Belfast.
One year ago: CBS News fired top "60 Minutes" executive Jeff Fager, who had been under investigation following reports that he groped women at parties and tolerated an abusive workplace. The Food and Drug Administration warned that the use of e-cigarettes by teens was an "epidemic," and ordered manufacturers to take steps to reverse the trend. New York's City Council passed legislation allowing people who were born in the city but who don't identify as male or female to change their gender designation to "X'' on their birth certificates; the measure also allowed parents to choose the "X'' designation for their newborns.

Description: This is a hand sprite that acts like the ones found in some games of The Legend of Zelda series. Once in a while, it falls from the ceiling, trying to catch the player. If it succeeds, they're teleported. Extra Bytes 1 and 2 determine the first warp destination (used when the midway point isn't collected), and Extra Bytes 3 and 4 determine the second warp destination (used when the midway point is collected).
Includes tilemap defines, a free RAM define (whose address is required for some functions explained in the Readme file), defines for amount of time before the hand falls and for how long the hand should stand in place before closing, an option to respawn if killed with star or fireballs, and sound effect defines for falling and catching the player.
I can see someone smashing controller lol. Really cool Sprite.
A unique non-lethal enemy choice. I could see this being really useful for castles or ghost houses.


Fat Grafting - Nadia P. Blanchet, M.D.
Fat grafting has become a standard procedure. Liposuction is performed (usually of the abdomen) and then that fat is concentrated, strained and gently rinsed and finally injected using a small, blunt-tip needle made specifically for fat grafting into an area of the body with a volume deficiency. This can be injected above or around an implant or in the skin of a mastectomy reconstruction to help the reconstruction look more natural. It can also be injected into an indented scar, the face (especially the cheeks and chin) or into radiated tissue to help release the tightness. It can also be used cosmetically for breast asymmetry correction.
Fat grafting is not perfect. Some of the fat always takes, and some of the fat always re-absorbs, although almost always in a uniform manner. The range of graft survival is from about 40% to 70%. This is because each droplet of fat has to have enough blood supply to live as a graft. This is why adding more fat to compensate for resorption actually makes the blood supply worse.
There are very few risks to fat grafting. The area which donates the fat will be bruised and tender for a few weeks. There is less than a 1% risk of infection. The main concern is the re-absorption rate which is unpredictable, although we know that smokers and patients with radiated tissue do not heal as well, and resorb more. Nicotine screening may be necessary the day of surgery. IF THE TEST IS POSITIVE, YOUR SURGERY WILL BE CANCELLED.
It will be a pleasure to discuss fat grafting with you. Please feel free to call my office with any questions you may have (804-320-8545).

Q: Setting active state of Twitter Bootstrap button radio group in ASP.NET Does anyone know how I could set the 'active' button of the button radio group in Twitter Bootstrap?
I am using ASP.NET 4 and the latest version of Twitter Bootstrap. I have an ASP.NET UpdatePanel, inside of which I have the button group. When any of the buttons are pressed, a command is executed server side. This causes a PostBack, which is what I believe causes the state of the group to be reset. What I would like is for the "selected value" to be set on the load of the page, as a value may already exist in the DB. If another button is clicked I would like the DB to be updated and for that button to stay the 'active' button after PostBack.
My UpdatePanel:
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="upPreference" runat="server">
    <ContentTemplate>
        <div class="btn-group" id="preferences" data-toggle="buttons-radio">
            <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="None"
                          CssClass="btn btn-primary active"
                                      OnClick="btnPreferenceNone_Click" />
            <asp:Button ID="btnPreferenceDislike" runat="server" Text="Dislike"
                          CssClass="btn btn-primary"
                                    OnClick="btnPreferenceDislike_Click" />
            <asp:Button ID="btnPreferenceLike" runat="server" Text="Like"
                  CssClass="btn btn-primary" OnClick="btnPreferenceLike_Click" />
            <asp:Button ID="btnPreferenceIntolerant" runat="server"
                   Text="Intolerant" CssClass="btn btn-primary"
                                      OnClick="btnPreferenceIntolerant_Click" />
        </div>
    </ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

A: The class 'active' causes a button to be selected in the radio group. According to your code-snippet, Button1 is the default value when the page is loaded.
So to select a button based on the value of the callback, you need to identify which button is to be selected, then using the id of the selected button, you will use Javascripts addclass() method
Inside the callback method, your javascript will look something like -
$('button selctor').addclass('active');

You could also refer to - Bootstrap Button Radio Group Default Value (Check Attribute) Not Working

I am now part of that loosely connected network of travelers with their entire lives stuffed in backpacks, roaming the world and bumping into each other in new wondrous places, in different countries and cities, across new oceans, mountains and deserts. We share phenomenal moments and fun here and there then pack up and part ways after days but sometimes weeks.
Our conversations are almost entirely about where we've been and where were going, and casually share itineraries sometimes with the aim to meet again elsewhere. E-mail, Facebook and other travel and social networks keep us connected.
After three months of travel it occurred to me today that I had unwittingly joined this global network of nomads. I was having breakfast in The Rock, a restaurant on Santa Cruz island in the Galapagos when a couple from London, England, entered. I looked at them and thought they looked familiar. They sat at the table next to mine and the woman immediately made the statement they had seen me several weeks earlier in Ecuador's capital city, Quito. I confirmed that indeed that was the case. We chatted about our travels past and future. Their itinerary was very similar to mine. They had left Quito, traveled to Guayaquil then the Galapagos and now were in route to Peru and onward south to other countries in South America.
During breaks in our conversation I looked out the large windows of the restaurant – a favorite hangout for foreigners on their way to someplace else – and in a span of less than an hour recognized several other familiar faces. These were individuals I had seen and interacted with in other parts of Ecuador and Colombia.
We were all obviously on the same track, weighted down with backpacks. A nomadic network of travelers saying hello, saying goodbye, and hello again.
In Cuenca, Ecuador, my current location, this network was evident as I exited La Cigale restaurant. A man who held the door for me asked if I had been in the Galapagos about two or three weeks ago. I responded in the affirmative and he said he had seen me on the island. A few more steps through Cuenca's colonial center and across the street I saw three people I had met two months earlier in Taganga, a fishing village in Colombia. We had sat on the beach there having beers and watching a spectacular sunset. These sort of encounters have been repeated over and over again in just these short three months. Imagine how many people I will have met on the road and new experiences shared over three years of travel?
One such person is Paul Ford of Austin, Texas. I met cool Texas dude Paul in Cartagena, Colombia, where we chilled, discussed travel plans, partied and got drunk together (celebrating the birthday of another person – Luis – whom I had previously met in Barranquilla, Colombia). Paul and I had some good and crazy times in our travels together and apart.
I left Paul in Cartagena after that crazy night of celebrating Luis' birthday and didn't know if I'd see him again. But this is the network and somehow it works to bring travelers together. He sent me an e-mail on the couchsurfing Web site. He said he was in Cuenca, which I had already decided would be my next destination once I left the Galapagos and returned to the mainland.
Now, Paul has sort of become my Cuenca sidekick. We have spent countless hours checking out the city, hiking in Cajas National Park, and meeting new people in the nomadic network. Through Paul I have met others and introduced him to others. And so the network goes and grows. We meet, we greet, we travel and we meet again. Long term travel has created this global network of friends, all with people, places and many things in common. It's been simply fantastic.
Natalie of Paris, France, my fellow travel companion for a day, tries to decide on a purchase in Sigsig, Ecuador.
The nomadic network works. For the most part, it consists of some of the most open-minded, coolest, most resourceful and resilient people on the planet. Traveling for months or years with everything you own in a backpack is not easy or glamorous. Getting from one place to another takes an awful lot of logistics, energy and will to continue. Most of us are traveling on a budget and sometimes end up sleeping in some scary places. When I'm not sleeping on somebody's couch through couchsurfing, I am in a hostel or hotel or camping. Some hostels, well, let's just say you get what you pay for. In Cuenca, after leaving my CS hosts' swanky digs about 45 minutes by bus outside the city, I landed in a smelly, moldy hostel that lacked housekeeping. The house maid, I was told, simply didn't show up for work. Sometimes you do what you have to do to stay within your budget. And sometimes because you've penny-pinched so much you can afford to splurge a bit, if nothing else, for your own health, both physical and mental.
My smelly hostel cost $10 a night. My current digs, The Victoria Hotel, costs $40 a night, and it's worth every penny. It has afforded me a good night's rest, a clean bathroom, a hot shower, and a place to take care of other important business to carry on traveling.
I love my nomadic network. When I leave Cuenca I will probably see Paul and other travelers in some other country, sharing new experiences with new people, largely locals, which also is fantastic. The network is what makes the journey fun and rewarding. It's about people. It's about some of the coolest people. It's me.

Kuami Eugene reveals reason for his success
Sun, 8 Nov 2020 Source: e.TV Ghana
Award-winning artiste, Kuami Eugene has asserted that even before breaking through into mainstream music, he had always prepared ahead to enjoy his success.
In an interview with DJ Advicer on the Ayekoo After Drive Show on Happy 98.9 FM he said, "When I was younger, I used to sleep in my mother's kitchen because my room was close to the kitchen. I'll wake up at dawn to write songs and make beats there" he said.
The reigning artiste of the year also said that he believes that there is time for everything that is why he took his time to work hard to this point. He also said, " I prepare for every opportunity that might come my way".
He revealed that even before he was signed to Lynx, he had already recorded some of his monster hits released with the label. "When Richie signed me, I already had most of my songs on a pen drive. I already even have the chorus of most of the songs I am featured on. I just go through my chorus and pick one that fits into the song".
Answering questions on the sudden rise to fame and his advice to the up and coming artistes, he reiterated, "It is just hard work and I prepare myself for every opportunity that comes my way".
The musician citing one of such examples of preparing for opportunities revealed that after doing the song for the Adonko Next Level energy drink, he foresaw that Itel will make a similar demand and recorded a song for them too. "Not long after recording the song, Itel came and asked me for a song and I gave it to them".
He made it known that the reason why almost everyone from the young to old is able to relate with his music is that he targets his audience and puts in the work. "When everyone is sleeping, I am busily working".
Kuami Eugene is out with a new album titled Son of Africa which he wishes to be a piece that will carry the whole of Africa.

Q: How is screen rotation achieved in terms of battery life? Hi I am working on an Android app which should detect user movements with accelerometer and according to it run some further actions. I have a service which listens to sensormanager updates but, there is a problem, the accelerometer drains the battery pretty fast:-\
Please is it possible to save the battery for example with lower sampling rate of the sensor?
How does it the operating system with screen rotation? There must be sensor running all the time, isn't it true?
Thank you for your help, I hope you will understand my question. In case of not, I can post some further info..
Thanks

A: Yes, the SensorManager class provides different registering methods, and some of them have a delay parameter. The higher the delay, the less battery it drains:
  public boolean registerListener (SensorEventListener listener, Sensor sensor, int rate)

The Android developers guide has a section on the matter. I recommend you to read it, in particular the best practices section.

A: You also have to consider that android has to detect movement only with screen on..
When you will register for accelerometer updates it will keep the device awake,which will have impact on the battery life..
That's why there are coming things like HW sensor events batching (came with KitKat) which basically outsources this to a single purpose low energy chip ( hence it only works on  supported chips like snapdragon 800) and does not hold the device awake all the time..you can find more about this in the official documentation...

A second close-up of the man-shaped apparition in the shadows.
One of the original photos of the woods.
"My name is Calvis Brahier, from Milton, Florida. I took these two photos of an apparition standing in the trees. I witnessed it and talked to it for 30 minutes, after which it faded away into the woods. At the time, I felt as though it was following me. I do feel like it resembles a reaper or wraith. I do have the negatives, and yes, the apparition is in the negatives, too."

Designed and backed by Union pro rider Gigi Rüf, the Contact Pro is designed for the all mountain-freestyle rider looking for total freedom and a surfy feel that performs great both inside and outside the park. The lightweight base plate makes this binding one of the lightest on the market and provides the perfect blend of response and damping for riding all snow conditions.
CP3 Highback - Developed and tested by Gigi Rüf, the CP3 highback is incredibly light, extremely comfortable, and outstanding in all types of snowboarding terrain.
Duraflex MD Base - With a mere 5% binding-to-board contact area, the Minidisk Base enhances natural flex, boosting performance and overall durability.
This binding a a super flexible and light binding that makes park riding so much easier.
I've had and enjoyed a couple Burton bindings during my years of riding, namely Missions and Cartels. I've also recently bought a pair or Ride bindings and like them a lot. But this pair blows everything else out of the water. It is super light but feels durable. Everything about it is incredibly sleek, so you feel like you don't even have a binding around your boots when riding. But you do, and it's a fricking good one.
Love these bindings. Great versatility and you can adjust them quite a bit.
These are likely the best bindings ever made to date. One downside is that someone who desires stiff highbacks won't find these completely satisfying. They might want to switch to different union highback.
First off, I'm a chick with size 10 feet so I generally wear guys' bindings just because though the girls' ones fit, they're usually stretched out as far as they can go and I like to be able to really play with my fit. I've been using the Burton Missions for ages and I really wanted an upgrade, so after much deliberation went with Contact Pro's in M/L. No regrets so far... feels like I went from driving a Honda to a BMW!
I was really floored about the exceptional amount of control I had despite their stellar range of motion and flexibility. Tight turns in trees felt way more dialed in and I felt like I could really get a lot of flex and motion in the ankle/foot region which actually helped me get a lot more power out of my legs.
The cushiness underfoot is awesome, too. I hit a couple of flat landings in the park and while that's never fun, they felt waaaay more dampened underfoot than anything I've felt before.
As far as the weight goes, that's great too! When I held a Burton and Union in each hand, I couldn't feel a huge difference in weight, but when I got the Contact Pro's on my board and underfoot, the difference was definitely noticeable.
Best binding I've ever used, only design flaw is that the orange paint can get chipped easily.

Captain Paul Watson - As Posted on his Facebook Page 2013-03-28
Although I am not in a position to post directly to Facebook, my page will be updated for me until such time that I may be able to do so again myself.
Our three ships the Steve Irwin, Bob Barker and Sam Simon docked without incident at Williamstown to a warm reception from friends, family and supporters. The Australian Federal Police did not board the ships as they have done in the past and Customs and Immigration went smoothly and quickly. After five months at sea for the Steve Irwin and three months at sea for the Bob Barker and the Sam Simon, the crews were happy indeed to step onshore again and all the more happy to return after such a successful season of interventions against the illegal whaling activities of the Japanese whaling fleet.
So now we move from blocking whalers at sea to fighting them in the courts. I believe that justice will prevail and that the bogus charges against Sea Shepherd and myself will be successfully countered with the evidence.
But be that as it will, the fact remains that the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary is a sanctuary both in fact and in law and preventing whales from being slaughtered in a sanctuary for whales is the right thing to do and we are all dedicated to doing so.
The international crew of Sea Shepherd volunteers on all four ships did an incredible job this year. I hope that many of them will return if we need to go back. Some will, and some will not. It is a big commitment to take so much time, to take such risks in such cold and unpredictable weather in such a remote and hostile environment and to do so without pay. Many of the crew made personal sacrifices to join the campaign. For some they cannot afford to return but I am sure however that there are many passionate people waiting for the opportunity to sign on for the next campaign.
In the meantime we need to repair the ships. We are at a disadvantage because Sea Shepherd USA cannot provide funds for the repair of the ships. So we are looking for welders, engineers, electricians, carpenters, and plumbers in addition to donations of funds and materials in Australia.
As for me, I remain at sea, out of reach of Japan's angry, long and powerful tentacles. The situation is what it is and the very fact that Japan so desperately wishes to silence me gives me assurances that we are hurting their whaling operations tremendously.
Japan is a powerfully rich nation and they are used to taking what they want from the sea without opposition. I am but one person and Sea Shepherd is but one small non-governmental organization yet we have brought their glorified welfare whale murdering program to its knees.
The whalers have the money, the political influence and an army of lawyers and public relations firms. They have the full support of the Japanese government and they have the support of the Yakusa.
We only have the passion of people worldwide who want to see whaling ended and the whale sanctuaries protected. I think that passion is stronger than their greed and will allow us to vanquish the whalers from the Southern Ocean.
We may lose, the courts may destroy us, Japan may capture me and lock me away for years or forever. The whaling fleet may return with more subsidies and military support.
But if I am not leading the Sea Shepherd ships, others will. If they tear Sea Shepherd apart, another organization will arise. If they destroy our ships, they will be replaced.
I am confident that for as long as Japan attempts to kill whales in the Sanctuary, they will be opposed.
If we can't save whales in a whale sanctuary, we won't be able to save anything in the sea from being eradicated in the name of human short sightedness and greed.
Operation Zero Tolerance is officially over. Now Sea Shepherd will carry on, working on other campaigns to protect the dolphins at Taiji, the pilot whales in the Faeroes, the seals in Namibia, the sharks in the South Pacific, the tuna in the Mediterranean, the fishes off the coast of Africa and our work to defend the Galapagos National Park Marine Reserve.
To each and every person who made Operation Zero Tolerance a success, a sincere and grateful "Thank you."

Why Kia Nurse was (and still is) a matchup nightmare for opponents
Can Kia Nurse (11) help take UConn back to the promised land?
PHILADELPHIA -- The first time Cheyenne Creighton went up against Kia Nurse 12 years ago, there were few thoughts about any potential college matchups.
Creighton's initial reaction was that Nurse was a matchup nightmare, but another thought popped into her head.
"I think a lot of people got this whole cocky impression about her and she will tell you too," Creighton said with a laugh at the American Athletic Conference basketball media day Monday.
A couple of years later, Creighton, a senior forward at Memphis, and Nurse, a senior guard for UConn, would become teammates for the very first time on summer club teams.
UConn women's basketball: After a shocking loss, how will the Huskies bounce back?
"Getting to know her as a teammate, you get to look at her differently," said Creighton, a native of Ajax, Ontario. "She's a great person and a great player so people want to be her teammate."
Creighton, who spent many of her summers as Nurse's teammate, wasn't done heaping praise on Nurse, a 21-year-old who has already been a star on Canada's gold medal-winning teams at the FIBA Women's AmeriCup in 2015 and '17 and at the 2015 Pan Am Games.
"She's like the face of women's basketball back home in Ontario," Creighton said. "UConn is going to go to Toronto to play Duquesne, so people are really excited for that, so a lot of people are going to show up for that game."

— American WBB (@American_WBB) October 16, 2017
People in Ontario might have some interest in UConn's AAC opener as well. Nurse, a native of Hamilton, will lead the Huskies against Creighton and Memphis on Dec. 31 at the XL Center in Hartford.
"Over the last four years she has developed so much," Creighton said. "Her role has changed each and every year and she has emerged from it. Every time I see her she's gotten better and she's a great person to be around."
After Mississippi State guard Morgan William's jumper ended the longest winning streak in NCAA Division I women's basketball history, she was greeted with a hug from UConn coach Geno Auriemma even though William hit the basket that ended Auriemma's chance for a fifth straight national title.
When Dabo Swinney, the head coach of the defending national champion Clemson football team, was on the wrong end of a 27-24 loss to unranked Syracuse last week, he offered sincere and heartfelt congratulations to Syracuse coach Dino Babers.
MORE: Breaking down the 2017-18 UConn women's basketball schedule
Swinney took it a step farther by going into the Syracuse locker room to offer more kudos, especially to standout receiver Steve Ishmael.
Although Auriemma hasn't exactly spent quality time with Swinney, he wasn't surprised by the Clemson coach and his classy reaction in defeat.
"When you see somebody do what Dabo did, you're doing the right thing," Auriemma said. "You don't necessarily have to go into the locker room, but you have to acknowledge it, especially when you're used to winning as much as he's used to winning, you have to understand losing. It's how you handle that end of it, and not how you handle the other end of it. I thought he did what most people do who have had a lot of success; they appreciate it."

Q: Using raw_input after using fileinput I have a python script that can read it's data from stdin or from a file. In order to do this, I use fileinput in the following manner:
for line in fileinput.input(args.path):
    read.parseLine(line)

Which works fine. However, after reading this file/input, I want to be able to ask the user for some additional input through stdin using read:
data = raw_input("Please enter your data for port {}: ".format(core.getPort()))

This does not work, since raw_input keeps on encountering an EOF.
Please enter your data for port 0: Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "app_main.py", line 72, in run_toplevel
    File "/usr/local/bin/dvm", line 98, in <module>
    data = raw_input("Please enter your data for port {}: ".format(core.getPort()))
EOFError

I tried to resolve this by usingsys.stdin.seek(0) But that returns the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "app_main.py", line 72, in run_toplevel
    File "/usr/local/bin/dvm", line 88, in <module>
    sys.stdin.seek(0)
IOError: [Errno 29] Illegal seek: '<fdopen>'

Is there any way to ask for user input after using fileinput?

A: fileinput doesn't do anything to sys.stdin other than read (it explicitly makes sure not to close sys.stdin).
But you cannot use sys.stdin both as file input and for raw_input(); either sys.stdin is attached to a pipe, or it is connected to the user terminal. It cannot be attached to both. And fileinput would read from stdin indefinitely unless an end-of-file was reached at some point.
In other words, you cannot use raw_input when sys.stdin is not attached to a terminal. You could use the os.isatty() function to detect if a terminal is available:
if os.isatty(sys.stdin.fileno()):
    # we have a terminal, I can use `raw_input()`

The body, the brain, and dealing with pain with Matt McClanahan
Interview by
Dr. Chad Prevost
Dr. Shelley Prevost
On this week's episode, we have a wide-ranging conversation with Matt McClanahan.
Acute, chronic, or auto-immune pain, Matt McClanahan has seen a great deal over the past decade and a half. What do you do when medicines don't work, and diagnoses are tricky to figure out? What's the difference between pain and tissue damage? And even if it's not tissue damage, while pain is in the brain, it doesn't mean it's just made up. At the same time, dealing with pain is very much a mindset.
We deep-dive into stress. Stress is there to protect us. But our bodies have a threshold depending on the input and output--and subjectivity--of stress. He talks about his own personal experiences in dealing with pain, and the processes involved in managing it, as well as the lightbulb moments. And are ice baths a real thing for health and wellness and longevity?

The Appraiser's Wife: Save on Postage, Home Improvement & Gift Cards!
I love saving money, especially in really unique ways. Here are THREE really cool ways to save a little green!
2.) Home Improvement: Got a remodel coming up? want to replace an expensive garage door? washer? Etc.? to go ebay again here! look for 10% off coupons to home depo or lowes. they usually sell for 2-7 dollars but could save you LOTS! Example if you spent $1,000 that little coupon could save you $100.00!! And AGAIN if you go through ebates or mypoints you could get some points/cash back!! In my experience Lowes, home depo & menards ALL honored these coupons even if it says to a particular store.

Lisa Montgomery Is First Female Federal Inmate To Be Executed Since 1953
By Bill Galluccio Jan 13, 2021
For the first time since 1953, the United States executed a female inmate. Lisa Montgomery was convicted of murdering a Missouri woman and cutting out her unborn baby in 2004.
Montgomery, 52, was given a lethal injection at the federal prison complex in Terre Haute, Indiana, and was pronounced dead at 1:31 a.m. on Wednesday (January 13) morning.
Montogomery's execution was carried out following a series of last-minute legal challenges from her lawyers, who claimed she was suffering from mental illness. U.S. District Judge Patrick Hanlon granted a stay of execution, citing the need for more information on whether she was mentally competent to be executed.
On Tuesday, an appeals court in Chicago reversed Hanlon's decision, allowing Montgomery's execution to move forward. It was then put on hold again after an appeals court in Washington, D.C., blocked the execution because of concerns about whether the Justice Department provided sufficient notice of Montgomery's execution date.
Early Wednesday morning, the Supreme Court vacated the decisions of Hanlon and the appeals court in D.C., paving the way for Montgomery's execution.
She is the first female federal inmate to be executed since Bonnie Brown Heady on December 18, 1953. Heady was convicted of kidnapping and murdering a six-year-old boy.

"I've grown more confident in my tennis game. Prior to therapy, I had begun to fear being hit in the face by the ball and my reaction time was slowing down. After 4 months, my game is much more aggressive; I track the ball better and by development of my peripheral vision, I'm able to place the ball more accurately without "telegraphing" to the other player where I'm placing the shot. When the game heats up at the net, I'm confident, alert, and relaxed. When the game keeps me back in the service court, I'm able to put more power into my swing and I'm always aware of the other players positioning without taking my eye off the ball."
3D Vision is short for "three -dimensional vision" or two-eyed depth perception. 3D provides a stable, solid world. Indeed the medical term for 3D vision is stereopsis, which is derived from the Greek words for "solid vision." 3D suggests how comfortably and efficiently your brain coordinates the fourteen muscles of your eyes. When such coordination is poor, 3D vision may be reduced, stressful or painful. If one eye turns in toward the nose (strabismus), then the brain may learn to suppress or ignore 3D vision at all times. Even in such extreme cases, 3D vision can often be partially or fully recovered with vision therapy.
HOW BIG CAN YOU SEE?
If you can read the eye chart, then you have 20/20 acuity: the ability to see tiny details. Seeing little, however, does not guarantee that you can see big. Seeing the seams on the baseball while simultaneously seeing the ball's position in space demands good central vision combined with good peripheral vision. 3D vision can add to your ability to see big, whether for reading the green or judging the curves on the road at night.
"I can now tell if my shot is going to land short, long, etc. I can "read" greens. My putting has improved tremendously."
• Hold your right hand about ten inches in front of your face.
• Turn the palm-side of the hand toward your face.
• Half close your fist and extend your finger-tips directly toward eyes.
• With your other hand, cover first one eye, then the other.
• Compare how each eye's view of your fingers appears different.
• Uncover your eyes and view your hand using both eyes at the same time.
• Behold any extra space between the fingers. You may even notice that your finger-tips appear to spring further out from your palm.
• This increased perception of space is known as stereopsis.
Another way to experience two-eyed depth perception is to cover one eye and look around the room at objects positioned at different distances from you. Then uncover the eye and look with both eyes and see the extra space or "air" between the objects.

Chunal is a hamlet in Derbyshire, England. It is located on the A624 road, 1 mile south of Glossop. The philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein conducted aeronautical research at Chunal during his time as an engineering research student at Manchester University (1908–1911). He flew kites into the upper atmosphere.

There are three listed buildings in the locality, all designated at Grade II: White House, a farmhouse dated 1669; an 18th-century barn to the south of Shepley Farm; and Horseshoe Farmhouse and an adjacent barn. A public house, the Grouse Inn, closed in 2014/15 and is now a private house.

Transport
There are several bus stops going through the hamlet towards Charlestown, Glossop, Buxton and Macclesfield.

My teens tell me that web etiquette allows for infinite posting of cat images.
Parents spend a lot of time and effort preaching to their children about the dangers of online interactions.
And rightly so. There are good reasons to be cautious about putting yourself out there on the web.
But parents can learn a lot from their kids about social media, too. We tend to post in ways that might not be dangerous, but are definitely embarrassing, if not to ourselves, then at least to our children.
Here are 10 tips on how to avoid common parental social media mistakes.
Or the photos of the fabulous meal you cooked. Most of us barely have time for the mundane details of our own lives. We aren't that interested in yours.
No matter how many times he hit it out of the park at T-ball practice, your kid most likely won't be the next Derek Jeter. Plus, if he's old enough to be on social media himself, he's probably done with you drawing attention to him on your timeline or in your Instagram posts.
If you must boast about little Sally's gold medal in the science fair, don't spell it out. Post one photo. And while we're talking photos, ask your son before you post that cute one of him at age three in the bathtub. Do you understand the vast size of your child's social media network?
Quality over quantity—these are words to live by. Same rule applies to social media. Continuous tweeting, linking, posting and commenting on everything you see is annoying. Post when you have something truly worthwhile or funny to share.
Subtlety reigns in the social media world. Cleverness and wit are king. Kids seem to grasp this concept intuitively. We grown ups need to work on it.
Your kids aren't dummies. On some level they know you're monitoring their social media. But stifle the urge to 'like' or comment on their social media posts. If you snoop covertly they won't be tempted to 'unfriend' you and you'll be able to lull them into half-forgetting you're even there. It's an effective way of monitoring their behavior. If you do have concerns about what they're posting, talk to them face-to-face.
Do you engage in personal one-to-one conversations in the midst of a group of people you don't know? That's rude, right? Then don't do it on your Facebook wall.
If what you're posting is funny you shouldn't have to point this out to people. As for emoticons, use them sparingly and precisely.
It's weird to send invitations to your kids' friends to play Candy Crush. Likewise, check out links before you post them and consider your audience. Your grown-up friends probably aren't interested in taking a quiz to discover which era of Taylor Swift they are.
Sometimes it seems as if everyone on social media has the virtually perfect family. But lives can be messy and complicated. Share a little vulnerability once in a while. We'll love you more for it.
Basically, the kids are giving us the same message we're trying to give them. Social media is not an alternate universe. It's part of the world we live in every day, and as such, the same rules apply—whether they're about encounters with strangers or how we engage with our friends.


Last week I had the chance to visit a mental hospital for boys to deliver a therapy bed here in Moldova. The visit was unexpected and spur of the moment but exactly what I needed, the timing could not have been more prefect. Before I get started a verse comes mind.
This day trip reminded me of how our time here on this earth is short, we do not know the day when the Lord will call us home but we should live each day like it is our last day. Sharing the Gospel and just plain out loving on people. You see, as we arrived at the hospital the boys were outside enjoying the sunshine for winter will arrive soon. As we waited to be checked in by the guard the boys came near the gate. The guard allowed us to pass and gave us directions to where we should deliver the therapy table. The boys did not know us but they welcomed us, and gave us hand directions to where we should go once inside. They just wanted to help and express their love from deep within, a true love without limits and no favoritism.
We followed the boys and guard's directions reaching the building to where we were to take the table. As we exited the car I looked up and just around the corner of the building were several of the boys making sure we had arrived at the correct location. I did not take any pictures of the boys for the trip was only a short visit but many of their faces filled with emotions are etched in my mind as I write these words. They were just so happy that we came even if we were not visiting them directly. I just wanted to hug each of them and tell them I loved them along with Jesus.
We delivered the table and drove back to the front gate to leave and there they were again to tell us good bye as we drove away. While making the journey back to Chisinau my mind and heart could not stop thinking about what I saw. I even shared some words and comments to my friend that was traveling with me. Quickly I began to understand why I was chosen to go to this hospital on this day not by OM but by God.
Our time is short here on this earth and I want to be known to have this love/attitude like these boys. I want people to see the Lord through no matter what crosses my path each day good or bad. I want to be the smiling face at the gate telling others about the Lord and His love.
On this day woke up not feeling the best and truth be known the last few weeks have been difficult and I have lacked this love/ attitude to others and even team members but never knew this unexpected visit would break my heart and allow me to see the need for this love/attitude.
These boys in a mental hospital in Moldova will never know what I saw in them today but my heart goes out to them. I do ask you to keep them in your prayers for the conditions not the best at the hospital but better than being on the street like some others I have send. Thanks for your time and prayers. Be blessed and let your conspicuous love shine allowing others to know that you are a follower of Jesus.
