If they can't smell your nose hairs, you're not close enough.
For the past three years, I've been studying politics as a hobby. Reading biographies and history books, studying the combinations of political, economic and sometimes environmental events and how they impacted the world.
I can't respect anyone who is quick to dismiss the past. And believe me, I know people who have tried. "You can't change the past," they would say with some truth, without mentioning that you can at least learn from it. Or, "It's in the past!" As if it were completely absurd and not worth any consideration.
Of course, I notice that these same people often get into the same personal problems time after time, reoccurring like a techno beat.
When people aren't even learning from their own personal history and subject themselves to the same misery again and again, I cannot help but wonder if there's a missing link.
When it comes to politics though, I certainly notice one pattern. And interestingly enough, that same pattern seems to happen both personally and politically. The emphasis that is placed strictly on the now.
Exactly what "The Treatment" was isn't easy to define, but can best be described as a kind of emotional overload.
One summarized description was something to the tune of a tempest, powerful and thunderful shouting followed by rainy tears. It would be a whirlwind of dizzying emotional highs and bottom-of-the-sea lows. He would shake his fist violently at you before gently touching your arm like a dear friend. Statistics would pour out of his pockets. Smoke would come from his ears. Threats and compliments, praise and malice would all come from his mouth.
It's similar to books on applied psychology, akin to business or dating/pick up. But the difference between the businessmen and players against LBJ here is the fact that you could not ignore LBJ. In a business meeting or bar setting, you could always say no and walk away, so often these businessmen and players learn to be more subtle and cautious. But LBJ was always in a position of power, sandwiching Senators and Congressmen between a rock and a hard place.
The purpose of "The Treatment" goes right back to the same pattern I'm talking about. It is an emotional power play to get the "patient" of "The Treatment" to focus strictly on the now.
I've heard pundits on both sides explain with a snobbish tone how the facts and reasoning rest on their side. But politics is about a system whose changes hinge on relatively few, key moments. We vote for our leaders but once every few years. Given the difficulty of removing one from established power and the relatively long term gains from short term work, is it any real surprise that the most politically successful seem to be those who can create enough emotional charge to blind us from our reasoning and logic?
I have heard a phrase once that goes, "You can't fool everyone all the time." But in politics, you don't have to fool people all the time. Just any time.

So a lightning sale put Brink and all the DLC for it onto my Steam cloud.
I've coveted Brink since its release, but held back because I purchased Fallout: New Vegas about the time it became available. Mindful of my budget, I decided to wait. Now it's mine for less than $7.
Of course, I don't even know if people still play it. The servers could very well be dead.
For those of you who don't know, Brink is a game set on the Ark, a futuristic city in the ocean that was made to be totally self sustaining. However, the theory of climate change rings true and the sea levels rises, damaging much of the rest of the world. The Ark soon swells with refugees, overburdening the system. Frustrated and angry with their living conditions, a resistance faction brews within the Ark's slums. The security forces cannot allow cannot allow this resistance to inflict harm on the public. The rest of the game is about that conflict, told on both sides.
I only played a few moments on a single player challenge before I had to head out. The controls weren't as intuitive as I thought they'd be. I switched crouching/sliding from the C key to left-shift and am still deciding how I'd like to change a few other buttons. I also want to switch the iron-sights to another key and put melee on the mouse-2.
However, I really like the S.M.A.R.T. system, a feature that makes the environment highly interactive. I spent some time running towards boxes and letting my character parkour his way up. A lot of games just don't make the environment as useful as this, and when they do it's only for the sake of cover. Although the game isn't as amazing as this, here's a video of some of the action so you can at least see the developer's vision.
But playing the game is only half the reason I wanted Brink.
As I parsed through the customization options for my character, I noticed something. A guy in a creepy, sack cloth mask like the Scarecrow from Batman Begins probably isn't fighting for justice and freedom. When a character wears tattoos and face paint of skulls, they're probably looking for a fight. The so called good guys and bad guys aren't necessarily all on just one side.
On the outside, the Resistance and Security forces probably look like idealistically driven factions with some semblance of honor to their objectives. But on the inside, there has to be tons of infighting and self-absorbed characters, ranging from gangs and posses who are looking out for their own, conflict-strained family relations perhaps caught on both sides, and psychopaths (on both sides) who really just enjoy hurting people.
History might paint civil wars as romantic struggles between opposing philosophies. Reality reminds us that revolutions are the fruits of unhappy people unimpressed with their government, and with a lot of bad blood to spill. But of course, the victors write history.
Brink is, on many levels, ahead of its time. It maybe speculative sci-fi, but it draws its roots from urban culture and struggle, such as the Occupy Wall Street movement. It's S.M.A.R.T. system can revolutionize the FPS genre with more work. And there are fertile grounds for more story to develop. I think it would be great to write a comic series or novel about Brink someday.

Beatrice Mintz, Groundbreaking Cancer Researcher, Dies at 100
Beatrice Mintz was born on Jan. 24, 1921, in the Bronx, the youngest of four children. Her parents, Samuel and Janie (Stein) Mintz, had migrated first to London and then to New York from the small town of Mikulintsy, which was part of Austrian Galicia and is now part of Ukraine. In New York, her father worked for a time in the garment industry as a presser, ironing clothes.
Beatrice, known as Bea, skipped some grades in school and went to Hunter College, where she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in her junior year. She was planning to study art history but then took a biology course, liked her teacher and became so intrigued with the subject that she majored in it. She graduated magna cum laude in 1941. She studied for a year at New York University, then did her graduate work at the University of Iowa, where she earned her master's degree in 1944 and a doctorate in 1946.
Her first job was as an instructor in the department of biological sciences at the University of Chicago from 1946 to 1960. During that time, she studied in France on a Fulbright fellowship. But she preferred doing basic research to teaching and in 1960 transferred to Fox Chase, where she remained on the faculty until her death. She also served as an adjunct professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
She had no immediate survivors. Mr. Spallone, her executor, said in an interview that she left her estate to research organizations.
Dr. Mintz remained an art enthusiast. While in France, she bought several signed Picasso prints and hung them in her homes (she had two apartments, one close to her lab). She also wrote poetry, mostly about mice, but felt the poems were not good enough for public consumption, so she kept them in a desk drawer.
She had one of her first "multi-mice" stuffed by a taxidermist, as a kind of trophy. But the taxidermist had put it in a stalking pose that she felt was unnatural. It also went into a desk drawer.

This is our Large Horse / Donkey Muzzle. Like most of our pieces, this prosthetic appliance was made to fit most faces. The main picture above is the hot foam latex version applied and painted in browns.
This is a large sized muzzle with an elongated and slanted snout with large nostrils to give it a difinitive horse-like appearance. It also features built-in teeth on both parts. Painted differently, it can be many breeds of horse or could be painted as a donkey or zebra. It is in two pieces and comes unpainted by default.
Contact lenses, ears and other prosthetic pieces other than the Large Horse / Donkey Muzzle that are shown are not included. Using these types of costume accessories can help accentuate this prosthetic piece's equine features.


There are A LOT of people on it every day, multiple times a day.
Ideas and content are shared and can spread among people easily.
Taking those three things into account, using social media is an easy way to publish interesting and useful content to a lot of people at once with a good chance that they will share it with others multiplying your marketing.
The whole premise of inbound marketing is that you regularly share engaging content with as many people as you can to make them aware of who you and your brand are. Then as time goes on, they know you more than they know other real estate professionals and gradually develop trust and loyalty to your brand. When the time comes to purchase or list, you are top of their mind, not the person spamming them with pushy, sales content or doing nothing at all.
Sounds effective right? Well, it can be. You need to make sure you don't break some of the basic social media rules (too much sales content, boring content, etc.). Lucky for you, we wrote an ebook on this. Download it by clicking on the file link below.

Trump and Trudeau muse about walking away from NAFTA deal
Donald Trump and Justin Trudeau raised their trade brinkmanship to a new level on Wednesday
Donald Trump and Justin Trudeau raised their trade brinkmanship to a new level Wednesday with each saying they were willing to walk away from the North American Free Trade Agreement if they don't get what they want.
Trudeau started the day by branding Trump a rule breaker to argue in favour of keeping a mechanism to resolve trade disputes, while Trump hours later said Canada had more to lose than the United States if the two countries can't make a deal to preserve the three country NAFTA.
"That's going to be fine for our country," Trump said. "It won't be fine for Canada."
The bombast of the two leaders contrasted with the insistence of negotiators that the mood inside the room was constructive as talks hit what is being descibred as an intense phase. Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland went out of her way to praise her counterpart, U.S. trade czar Robert Lighthizer, saying he was acting with "good faith" and "good will."
Negotiations, now in their 13th month, are key to determining the economic and trade relationship among the three North American countries, with many workers' and industries' prospects hanging in the balance.
RELATED: Trump doesn't always follow rules, so Canada needs NAFTA's Chapter 19: Trudeau
At the same time, Trump needs a win on trade ahead of the U.S. midterm elections in November that will test the president's ability to keep control of Congress.
"We're not going to accept that we should have to sign a bad deal just because the president wants that," Trudeau told Edmonton radio station CHED.
Trudeau offered some of his sharpest criticism of the unpredictable American president, saying that Canada won't give an inch to Trump's desire to scrap NAFTA's Chapter 19 dispute resolution panels. The chapter allows companies to have their differences settled by independent arbiters — something Trump views as an infringement of U.S. sovereignty.
"We need to keep the Chapter 19 dispute resolution because that ensures that the rules are actually followed. And we know we have a president who doesn't always follow the rules as they're laid out," Trudeau said.
Freeland, when asked about the comments, said she didn't want to negotiate in public, but added: "I agree with the prime minister in public all of the time, and in private 99.99 per cent of the time … he made some important comments."
The U.S. and Mexico reached a side deal last month, leaving Canada to negotiate separately with the U.S.
Trump hinted there might be progress towards a deal with Canada.
"I think we've come a long way toward them treating us fairly," Trump said.
But other issues have yet to be worked out, including Canada's cultural exemption in NAFTA. Sources familiar with the Canadian bargaining position say the cultural exemption Canada has insisted on preserving since NAFTA talks reopened remains an 11th-hour sticking point.
Part of the disagreement on culture revolves around Canada's decision to allow the broadcast of glitzy American Super Bowl commercials, a decision that irks Lighthizer.
RELATED: Liberals won't compromise on culture, dispute resolution in NAFTA talks: Trudeau
His annual report on barriers to U.S. trade this year singled out the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission's decision in 2015 to ban the long-time practice of Canadian advertisers inserting their ads into the Super Bowl broadcast over the more popular American ones.
The new rules went into effect in time for the Super Bowl in February 2017.
American networks worried that the CRTC's decision reduced the value of Canadian programming because the amount they pay for Super Bowl rights is determined by how much advertising they can sell in Canada, Lighthizer's report said.
Lighthizer also said American broadcasters operating in border states have complained about Canadian counterparts picking up the U.S. signals and redistributing in Canada without consent. "The United States is exploring avenues to address these concerns," Lighthizer wrote.
Canada and the U.S. need to present an agreed-upon text to the U.S. Congress by Oct. 1 in order to join the deal the Trump administration signed with Mexico. Trump is threatening to move ahead on a deal with Mexico that excludes Canada.
The goal of this week's talks is to reach a deal by Dec. 1 so Congress can give its approval to a revised three-country NAFTA before Mexico's new president takes office.

A tic-tac-toe game, written in Ruby using Gosu.

![demo](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/subdigital/tic-tac-toe/master/tic-tac-toe.gif)

## Running the game

It requires [gosu](https://www.libgosu.org) and [Hasu](https://github.com/michaelfairley/hasu) to run. To install them:

```
gem install gosu
gem install hasu
```

Once the gems are installed, just run it with ruby:

```
ruby game.rb
```

## Live Reload

Hasu supports live reload, so you can keep the game running and just make edits, all while not changing the entirety of game state, which can be useful for tweaking.

## Gameplay

Use the mouse and select a square. Then give the mouse to a friend. 3 in a row wins.

## Why?

I've been interested in game development ever since I started programming. I've never shipped a real game. So I listed a bunch of simple games I could create quicly and just got started.
This is the first one.

I wrote [pong](https://github.com/subdigital/pong) already, this seemed like a good next step.

## The Code Sucks! What gives?

The point is to finish something, ship it and move on. Pull requests accepted! Maybe I'll learn a few things ;)

## What's Next?

Probably Breakout.

## LICENSE

Code released under the MIT License.


Harvard Law Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz said on Monday that he is planning to "skim over" the parts of the edited Mueller report, which discusses President Trump's relationship with Russia, because he believes that the part intended to prevent Trump's justice will be the more interesting section.
On Monday, it was announced that an edited version of Robert Mueller's full 400-page survey will be published on Thursday.
Dershowitz said under one look at "America's Newsroom" that he believes that some editors made by Lawyer William Barr in the new report will be "few and far from" but necessary to maintain privacy in individuals in the investigation who do not face criminal charges.
"I'll quickly foam Russian matter because I probably will quit There is no evidence there "Dershowitz said."
"The most interesting thing will be to look at the obstruction of justice," he added. "The obstruction case is largely based on what the president said openly in tweets and press conferences. I think we should see another analysis of the law on whether a president can commit obstruction of justice if he burns someone who (formerly FBI manager James) Comey, who he is entitled to fire, "Dershowitz added.
The Prophet said it was righteous upset when Comey revealed details of the investigation of Hillary Clinton, even though there were no charges, because it was not The Prosecutor's role in expressing their personal views on the situation, but in the case of Mueller's report, he says that people want to hear "all about all."
"The The real question is why do we have a double standard? "Asked Dershowitz." Why were we furious, I was when Comey went after Hillary Clinton beyond saying we will not accuse her and now we want to hear all about everyone who was in the report [Mueller] even though they have not been accused . Where does the double standard come from? "


I am currently getting my M.S. in Nonprofit Leadership at Fordham University. What does this have to do with golf and Jordan Spieth?
Philanthropy is the desire to promote the welfare of others, expressed especially by the generous donation of money to good causes. It can also be the desire to promote the welfare of others, expressed by an influencer.
The influencer that we are talking about is Jordan Spieth, who recently participated in the opening of a playground to help encourage social interaction as well as physical and cognitive development of children of all ages and abilities. Each area of the park has graduated activities so that the playground activity challenges progress with the growth and ability levels of each individual child. Also involved in project were members of the City of Dallas, the Lake Highlands Junior Women's League, the Lake Highlands Exchange Club and For the Love of the Lake.
Jordan Spieth has a younger sister Ellie who was born with a neurological disorder that leaves her with a mental age of five which surely inspired Jordan to become a philanthropist for specific reasons.
The Spieth Family Foundation's mission is to offer philanthropic support and help raise awareness in four areas: special needs youth, junior golf, military support and pediatric cancer.


In line with plans to deliver on client Birmingham Metropolitan College's strategy to provide the best in education and future proof for growth, Speller Metcalfe was contracted to undertake a multi-phase project to extend and redevelop facilities at the James Watt Campus.
Phase 1 incorporated a simple remodelling project of some existing classrooms and corridors.
Phase 2 involved the construction of the Sustainable Energies Centre, aimed at training the next generation of specialist engineers and trades to cope with the growing demand for renewables expertise. The building houses a range of technologies across varying boiler systems, ground source heat pumps, PV panels and solar thermal systems which the students can access and learn about in a practical environment. Phase 2 also incorporates a new atrium to improve circulation, a new café and first floor facilities alongside the refurbishment of the existing ground floor.
Phases 3 and 4 covered the new Blackstone Wing envelope, which provides a link to the main building, external landscaping including car parking, window replacement, general M&E, boiler room refurbishment and college-wide electrical and heating supply refurb.
This project also saw the construction of the new Learning Resource Centre (library), which was constructed in a unique manner with high level elevated walkaways and mezzanines with colourful learning pods.
This project ran simultaneously alongside another Speller Metcalfe scheme at Birmingham Metropolitan College with a combined project value of over £10 million.

Q: Are communication protocol Half-duplex or Full-duplex? I know there are a lot of different comminucation protocals like: http, tcp, ssh, socks5, SMTP, POP,etc.
I also know that to achieve a comminication, we need to connect localhost:localport to remotehost:remoteport. For example, if we google something, we would connect a random local port to www.google.com: 80. If we ssh a remote host, we would connect a random local port to remotehost: 22.
My question is: Are communication protocol Half-duplex or Full-duplex?
I guess the answer is Half-duplex. Because I think in http connection, at first we send the request from localhost:localport to remotehost:80, and then the remote server send its response from remotehost:80 to localhost:localport. Similarly, in ssh connection, at first we sent the ssh commands to remote host, after receiving the commands, the remote host do something and send the results back to the local host.
So I think in one connection between localhost:localport and remotehost:remoteport, the message is sent either from localhost:localport to remotehost:remoteport, or from remotehost:remoteport to localhost:localport.
Am I right?

A: As explained in this article:

SSH is a bidirectional full duplex protocol, which means that it's not synchronous like HTTP where you need to send a message for a response to happen.
With SSH the remote host might want to tell you something even if you have remained silent. This connector uses a callback flow approach to decouple the "sending" operation from the "receiving" operation.

As documented in this IETF draft, most implementations do allow full-duplex HTTP (for 2xx responses).

Full-duplex HTTP follows the basic HTTP request-response semantics but also allows the server to send response body to the client at the same time when the client is transmitting request body to the server.
Requirements for full-duplex HTTP are under-specified in the existing HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1) specification, and this memo intends to clarify the requirements of full-duplex HTTP on top of the basic HTTP protocol semantics.

There's Nothing Embarrassing About Obsessing Over Taylor Swift & Kim Kardashian's Public Feud
Madeleine Davies
It was Roman poet Juvenal who first said, "Two things only the people anxiously desire—bread and circuses" as a criticism of the layman's priority for fun and food over more pressing intellectual and political pursuits. Take the phrase and make it carb-free (green juice and circuses?) and you have an encapsulation of 2016 and—more accurately—the entirety of human history.
Sunday night, Twitter exploded after Kim Kardashian posted several videos to Snapchat that proved, through a recorded phone call, that Taylor Swift approved the lyrics to Kanye West's "Famous" despite publicly claiming otherwise.
Kim has been defending her husband for months, since around the time that Taylor, surrounded by her team of male producers, used her platform at the Grammys to subtweet West and call him a sexist. In the following months, both Kim and Kanye have insisted repeatedly that Swift knew full well that Kanye had recorded the lyric "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/ Why, I made that bitch famous"—and that she had even given her blessing, at least up until his use of the phrase "that bitch." Therefore, Swift's feigned offense seemed to be merely a PR stunt to demonize Kanye and promote her own image as a perpetual victim. (Thinking you can outmaneuver Kris Jenner's progeny would prove to be a fatal mistake in Swift's generally impenetrable PR strategy.)
The same night Kim released the Snaps, Taylor followed up with a statement of her own—though considering the receipts Kim had just brought to the table, it felt about as tactically useful as responding to a nuclear bomb with a potato cannon.
As my hero Real Housewives of Orange County's Heather Dubrow once told a flailing Alexis Bellino during a particularly tense reunion show, "When everyone's telling you you're dead, it's time to lie down." Taylor has, possibly for the first time, shown her ass and rather than picking up the pieces and moving on, she's flailing to find a new way to shift blame. Her speech at the Grammys didn't once hit on derogatory, sexist terms. Instead, it focused on Kanye's assertion that he made her famous:
"I want to say to all the young women out there, there are going to be people along the way that will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame, but if you just focus on the work and you don't let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you're going, you'll look around and you'll know that it was you and the people who love you that put you there and that will be the greatest feeling in the world."
If this is our distraction circus, then Taylor Swift has—for years— been our ringmaster.
As Dayna Evans wrote in 2015:
It's surprising to see smart people talk about Swift with such breathlessly positive overtures, not only because—like pop stars before her and pop stars after her—her music is simple and unfussy and infused with inane platitudes, but also because there appears to be something more opportunistic and sinister at play. When Taylor Swift does the mega-pop stardom act, she does it to the hilt. Swift has to be the person with the prettiest friends, the biggest records, the most popular and successful and groanworthily obvious boyfriend. The underdog narrative that the Swift machine has built is one of forced falsehoods; Swift is not coming from behind. She's been ahead since she started.
So perhaps that's why the internet exhibited such joy when Taylor's mask finally slipped. She was exposed, momentarily, not as an underdog, but as a ruthless capitalist, an opportunist, and—up until the point where she fucked with Kim—a PR genius.
But not everyone sees this public feud for all that it's worth. (I mean, it's worthless, but, then again, what isn't.) There's also the "Aren't there more important things in the world" take— you know, that special bit of bullshit that allows a person to participate in a cultural conversation while simultaneously acting as if they are morally above it. As much as these people—the Juvenals of the world—like to pretend like they're superior (or at least less susceptible to apathy) than us Bread and Circus folk, they're wrong. Either that or they're Swift's personal friends.
Believe it or not, but it is actually possible for the human mind to engage in the trivial and serious at the same time. Besides, given the state of politics (now and, if we're being honest with ourselves, almost always), it's not as if the discourse surrounding the issues that fucking matter is anymore highbrow than Kim slinging mud back at Taylor. This, at least, is fun and mostly without dire consequences.
From the dawn of time, people have loved to gossip and study the lives of others. Celebrities exist, largely in part, to make this easier. It's what Lainey Gossip's Elaine Lui describes as "the celebrity ecosystem," the not-so-modern space in which we (the celebrity, the media, the public) all exist to willingly consume or be consumed by gossip.
"I study the celebrity ecosystem to understand social culture, to understand social behavior, to understand humanity, to understand ourselves. That is the function of gossip." Lui says in her 2013 TEDx Talk. "Gossip, then, is good. Gossip is knowledge. Gossip is immortal. Gossip is historical."
Looking at the Kim/Kanye/Taylor feud through a sociological lens, it's hardly difficult to intellectualize and legitimize public interest. Here we have Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift, two people whose celebrity is largely built on a curated image—Taylor as the put-upon good girl and Kim as... whatever you think Kim is.
But since the beginning of her public career, Kim has been doing things backwards. Many women before her have used their sexuality to advance their careers—Kim just did it with a straight-up sex tape. Lots of famous people get divorced, brand themselves, and exploit political causes—Kim just happened to do it on a reality show. Everything she does is composed and pre-planned, but, unlike other famous people, she readily admits it. It is an intrinsic part of her celebrity.
Swift, on the other hand, attempts the opposite, with every action set up to advertise "I really am this nice! I really am this normal!" She sends Christmas gifts to fans, hands out wads of cash to strangers in Central Park (at least when there's a Rolling Stone writer there to report on it), and has used her feud with Kanye West to double down on her victim image ever since he first uttered, "Imma let you finish..."
I point out these differences not to valorize or demonize either of these women (when you think about it, both tactics are deeply cynical), but instead to point out that they're both a part of Lui's celebrity ecosystem. Examining the way we receive a celebrity's information—or pulling back the curtain to see what they don't want you to see—can only be helpful, specifically in regards to the way we consume media.
To be interested isn't to worship celebrity. It's to dismantle it. So grab your bread loaves and take a seat, ladies and gentleman. We've got a lifetime of circuses ahead of us, so we might as well enjoy it.

BT is being forced to cut the price of landline-only tariffs by £5 per month in order to provide better value for money.
Telecoms regulator Ofcom has imposed the decrease in order to assist customers, often elderly or vulnerable, who rely on a landline telephone service and have never shopped around for a better deal.
"Line rental has been going up, even as providers' costs come down. This hurts people who rely on their landline the most, and are less likely to shop around for a better deal. We think that's unacceptable," said Sharon White, Ofcom Chief Executive.
Customers on a landline-only tariff, which currently costs £18.99 per month, will now pay £13.99 a month and Ofcom is confident the move will push BT's competitors to follow suit.
BT has responded to Ofcom's request by stating that it takes its responsibilities "very seriously" and has plenty of special tariffs for "socially excluded or vulnerable customers".
Landline prices have shot up in recent years, all of the major players increasing the cost by between 25% and 49% in real terms.
Even though BT froze the price of line rental in January, it did increase the cost of calls by 1p per minute to mobile and landlines. It means landline calls now cost 12p and mobile calls 16p.
As part of the release, Ofcom explained that it also wants BT to try new approaches to communicating with landline-only customers. This is to make sure consumers know what the service costs and how packages from BT or other firms can offer better value for money.
There are 2.9 million landline-only customers in the UK and close to 80% (2.3 million) of them are with BT. However, that's less than half of the almost five million people who rely on a landline to run their BT broadband connection.
Most of those customers take out bundled packages that include a landline, broadband and/or pay TV, and there will be no change to what they pay for the service.
Do you think BT is doing enough to help landline-only customers? Let us know in the comments below.

Keep safe distance from mamma moose if seen
STATEWIDE — Since early June, Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials have investigated two separate moose conflicts resulting in injuries to three people, and agency officials are cautioning everyone to be extra vigilant this time of year.
Because elk, deer and other wild animals are currently rearing their newborn offspring, it increases the possibility of a serious wildlife encounter. Though most wildlife will protect their young, one of the most significant concerns for human safety is the aggressive response of a large, powerful mother moose in defense of her calves.
According to wildlife officials, a major catalyst in serious moose conflicts is the presence of dogs, as was the case in both recent incidents. When people, dogs and a defensive moose interact there is a significant risk of serious injuries to humans and pets. In addition, because CPW officers will act to protect the public in any wildlife conflict, it could lead to the death of a moose.
"People need to know when any wild animal injures a person, regardless of whether it is the human's fault or not, the animal will have to be put down if we can identify it," said Northwest Regional Manager Ron Velarde. "It is by far the worst part of any officer's job, but they must and will act to protect the public. It is why we strongly encourage everyone being responsible around wildlife and giving them plenty of space, especially when they have newborn offspring."
On June 10 near Fraser, a woman allowed her dog to run loose near willows - typical moose habitat - when a moose suddenly charged her and her dog. The woman dropped to the ground, receiving a painful leg injury when the animal stepped on her before it quickly ran off.
The woman told wildlife officers she was fully aware of the potential for a clash between a dog and moose; however, because she did not expect to see a moose on private property, she allowed her dog to run off-leash.
Doctors treated the woman at a nearby emergency room and released her the same evening.
She expressed remorse that the encounter could have led to the death of the moose. After searching the area, wildlife officers were unable to locate the animal.
"When in moose habitat, expect to see a moose, whether in the backcountry or within developed areas," said District Wildlife Manager Jeromy Huntington of Granby. "Try to stay in open areas where wildlife can been detected from a distance, especially when walking with a dog. Whether the moose has young or not, the presence of a dog is more than enough to incite an aggressive charge."
Huntington adds the woman was lucky the moose was not more determined to stomp on her or she could have been severely injured if the moose had stepped on her torso or head.
In Jamestown, a woman gardening in her backyard on June 2 reported that a moose with two calves unexpectedly appeared and began stomping on her. Her dog had been roaming freely in the yard at the time. Another resident of the home came to help and she was injured in the conflict as well. Both sought medical attention but neither woman suffered serious injuries.
"The woman and dog were in their own backyard, minding their own business and not doing anything wrong when this occurred," said Boulder County Area Wildlife Manager Larry Rogstad. "But even if you are not in the wilderness, sometimes the wildlife comes to you. We recommend everyone in Colorado be aware of the potential of encountering wildlife anywhere and anytime. Get the facts like those on the CPW website and be prepared to respond appropriately."
Rogstad says the cow and calves in the incident were not located.
According to wildlife officials, moose react to all dogs as they would to a wolf - one of their primary predators - by attempting to crush it with their hooves. Because of this instinctive, aggressive response, CPW officials recommend keeping dogs on a leash and under control when recreating in the backcountry, or consider leaving the dog at home.
"In most cases the dog flees back to the owner bringing an angry moose with it, as was the case in the recent incident in Fraser," said Area Wildlife Manager Lyle Sidener of Hot Sulphur Springs. "The dog continues on to safety but the owner is unable to escape."
Since 2013, CPW is aware of at least 15 moose conflicts resulting in minor to serious human injuries, including the latest two incidents. In all but two occurrences, dogs elicited the initial response from the moose.
CPW stresses the importance of education to prevent conflicts. For information about what to do if you encounter a wild animal, visit the CPW website, http://cpw.state.co.us

Debt rehabilitation is a legal process where a High Court, relieves someone who has been declared insolvent of any legal repercussions of being insolvent, returning their legal status to someone who was never declared insolvent.
The process restores a person's credit worthiness after a court has ordered a person rehabilitated from debt. Are you possibly listed on ITC or blacklisted? Inform yourself about these measures so you can understand where you are in the over-indebted stakes. Only when a person has been sequestrated can he/she apply for rehabilitation. A debt advisor or legal professional will carry out an assessment to determine whether you are eligible. Fill out our credit rehabilitation assessment.
So debt rehabilitation occurs after a person has been declared insolvent and the sequestration process has taken place. It puts an ultimate end to a general journey of financial rehabilitation and restores a person's name.
Getting into a situation of over-indebtedness is quite stressful. There are so many options to address any debt situation, but how do you know which is the best option? Living with the constant hassle from credit providers who demand payment is not a situation anyone wants to be in. Many people successfully undergo debt counseling once they realize they are over-indebted, but for those who wait too long to visit a debt counsellor or who defaulted on their re-arranged payment plan with creditors while under debt review, insolvency, liquidation and sequestration might be on the cards.
If you have been declared insolvent, it means you are legally declared incapable of paying debts you owe.
Another important term to understand is sequestration which is defined as a process where an entity(usually a credit provider like a bank) legally takes ownership of a person's assets (possessions, properties, cars etc,) until this person has repaid their debt or some other claim has been met.
Rehabilitation stems from Section 129 of the Insolvency Act and is a measure that abruptly ends the sequestration process, it also writes off all your debts which you still needed to pay. So it is the last step in freeing yourself from a bad credit record.
This is not to be confused with a Section 129 Notice which might occur long before rehabilitation. A Section 129 notice is a legal notification from a credit provider to a customer, that they are behind on their payments and is the first step in the legal process between creditor and debtor. Many recent court rulings have focused on how Section 129 notices are served, and how binding they are under certain circumstances. For example in the case of Sebola v Standard Bank in reference to a Section 129 National Credit Act notice not being received by the defendant, the court held that the credit provider must be able to prove that the notice has been delivered to the consumer.
When it comes to debt procedures in court and the legal processes in general, both consumers and creditors have recourse.
The consumer refused to agree to a proposal made by the credit provider in the written notice, suggesting ways in which to resolve any dispute.
A consumer also has recourse when legal processes commence. According to the NCR, "A consumer can terminate a credit agreement by returning the goods to the credit provider …(who)… will have to sell the goods. The consumer will have to cough up any shortfall should the goods be sold at a price less than the outstanding balance. The Act specifies that the credit provider may approach the court to recover the shortfall if not paid within 10 business days.
When it comes to actual debt rehabilitation time frames and circumstances, you can be rehabilitated at different times after being declared insolvent and having gone through sequestration. Generally, consumers decide to apply for rehabilitation four years after sequestration and the consumer then has the responsibility of proving they he/she is capable of providing for themselves and also prove their income and expenses. What you should know is that you will be automatically rehabilitated after 10 years has passed from the date of sequestration and that rehabilitation is not compulsory.
Usually a person who has been declared insolvent takes it upon themselves to be declared rehabilitated sooner rather than later as it has a very big impact on their lives and future financial decisions. Any insolvent consumer would like to have his or her credit worthiness restored as soon as possible so they can do things like buy a home, a family car etc.
There are actually eight different circumstances and different time frames associated with the various procedures which you can look into with the help of a debt advisor/legal professional , if you have already undergone sequestration.
Did you know that you don't have to repay debts before applying for rehabilitation as none of your former credit providers can lay claim to debts that have gone before, since you've already gone through sequestration and your debt has been cleared.
People are often worried about how information on Credit Bureaus will affect their future even after they have been cleared. The current stance of the National Credit Regulator(NCR) is that any negative status on credit records/bureaus should be removed immediately as soon as a person is 'rehabilitated' so no longer will their listing as being insolvent, or under debt review, show on any record. What will remain though is that the consumer was 'rehabilitated' and this will stick to records for about 5 years.
The court needs to grant a rehabilitation order so the process of removing any negative comments on a consumers name from credit bureaus, can take affect.
The process in short goes like this. Once the court has granted the order, the registrar of the High Court must send a copy of the order to bureaus that are then under obligation to remove any negative credit information. Sometimes these bureaus fail to do just that and legal professionals usually step in to handle the issue.
So what information may credit bureaus keep on us?
Once this negative mark on your credit record has been lifted, some banks might still discriminate against you, without the right to do so. Any credit provider is by law forced to treat you the same as they would any other person who was never been placed under sequestration and then rehabilitated. Your former credit providers, who lost money in the process might however be wary of taking you on as client again.
When will you be removed from ITC?
You are not automatically removed from ITC once a debt rehabilitation order has been granted by a High Court and debt advisors/lawyers usually contact ITC Bureaus to let them know.
These bureaus may take a month to update their records. Sometimes ITC will even let you know via sms that you've been removed while at times the bureaus may neglect to update their records. There are then procedures one can follow to have adverse information on your credit record removed.
"The National Credit Regulator: A consumer may lodge a complaint with the National Credit Regulator if the complaint relates to a credit agreement.
Ombudsman with jurisdiction – Industries such as the insurance industry, the financial services industry and the banking industry etc, have an Ombudsman. An Ombudsman is an entity that is established to receive and resolve complaints and disputes in each industry. For example, complaints that relate to a bank may be lodged with the Ombudsman for Banking Services and a complaint that relates to a credit bureau may be lodged with the Credit Information Ombudsman.
The crux of whether you are actually deemed debt rehabilitated lies in the hands of a judge, who must make the call and it'll be the same court who issued a sequestration order, which has to then issue a rehabilitation order if you are successful.
Should any funds remain after your creditors have been paid in full, you will be able to get it back once you have been declared rehabilitated but this process may take some time as the Master of the High Courts' offices are involved and there may be major delays.
If you are not officially rehabilitated, there is no way that you will be able to live your life the way you used to as you won't be allowed access to new credit by any credit provider.
A law professional/debt advisor will determine whether you may qualify for rehabilitation before an application is lodged.
An application to be rehabilitated normally succeeds when all procedures have been followed in terms of the Insolvency Act.
Did you know that you don't have to repay your debts before you apply for rehabilitation and if you made debt after sequestration it doesn't form part of your insolvent estate, and you just need to pay that debt, meaning it won't have an adverse affect.
Many debt advisors advise clients to save money after sequestration with the end-goal of undergoing the rehabilitation process sooner rather than later.
A rehabilitation order itself is not a complication matter. There will be fees that will be payable at different stages of the process, most notably a facilitation fee from a debt advisor or lawyer and also the cost of a High Court Rehabilitation Application. Most of these fees can be paid in instalments.

Q: change Class property properties (verbose_name exmpl.) from base Django model I have an abstract class with name and slug field.when i inherit from another class i want to change verbose_name parameter according to that class. How can I set this properties? I want to set the verbose_name parameter of the name field to "foo". but I want to use different parameter data for two different classes.
An example:
For ProductModel name field verbose_name="Foo"
For CategoryModel name field verbose_name="Poo"
class BaseProductModel(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    slug = AutoSlugField(populate_from="name",unique=True,verbose_name="Slug")

    class Meta:
        abstract=True

class ProductModel(BaseProductModel):
    # I want to set the verbose_Name parameter of the name field to "foo".
    #The two fields (name and slug) come from the inherited (BaseProductModel) class.
    description = models.TextField(max_length=500,verbose_name="Detay")

class CategoryModel(BaseProductModel):
    # The two fields (name and slug) come from the inherited (BaseProductModel) class.
    # I want to set the verbose_Name parameter of the name field to "Poo".
    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

A: You can do this in two ways
First, works only for abstract classes, otherwise it will change verbose_name of parent class too:
class ProductModel(BaseProductModel):
    # I want to set the verbose_Name parameter of the name field to "foo".
    #The two fields (name and slug) come from the inherited (BaseProductModel) class.
    description = models.TextField(max_length=500,verbose_name="Detay")

ProductModel.get_field('name').verbose_name = 'Foo'

And second, do that in the __init__ method:
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
    field = self._meta.get_field('name')
    field.verbose_name = 'Foo'


If you are in Baltimore, where should you celebrate National Ice Cream Day. Top of my list is The Charmery, on the corner of Chestnut and W. 36th Street which just opened their doors yesterday.
The brightly colored ice cream parlor features sixteen flavors of ice cream, some traditional and some Baltimore themed like Zeke's Coffee ice cream, Lemon Stick sorbet and even an Old Bay Caramel ice cream. All the ice creams, froyo and sorbets use only the freshest ingredients, sourced from local farms and producers. As the seasons change so will the flavors and offerings. The cooler months will have hot chocolates and house-made marshmallows.


The purpose of the analysis was to see whether virtual reality balance training or traditional balance training can boost balance in over weight individual.
The result of the present study showed that the three group i. e. Control Group, Virtual actuality group demonstrated an identical performance in both measured variable and Traditional balance group bring about more measurable improvement.
In this research positive relation found in the performance on the SEBT results. The effectiveness of normalizing excursion distance data was illustrated by the life of significant difference in excursion distance between genders on fresh excursion distance results; however a lack of gender difference was found pursuing normalization of excursion distance to lower leg length. With all the SEBT as diagnosis tool, thought for normalization should include leg length. This comprise either corresponding matched participations for lower leg period or normalizing excursion data to leg size.
Finding of the present study revealed that influence on balance after six week in charge Group, Virtual Fact Group, no factor and Traditional balance Group significant difference. These results are no more effective in case of overweight individual in virtual balance training but effective in case there is traditional balance training group. Having less statistically significant differences in balance in exclusive reality sample group because credited to learning aftereffect of the game in the content.
In today's research, the post intervention SEBT Composite results in Traditional group proved a statistically highly Significant variations (p=. 001) with the best mean value noticed and SLSTEOP also exhibited highly significant distinctions (p=. 001) in all the three organizations. SLSTECL demonstrated highly significant variations in charge and traditional balance group and non significant in online balance group.
The probable reasons of energetic balance increase due to tradition balance training as measured by SEBT are; The improvement in muscle strength of subject, pressure on neuromuscular system, activating sensory receptor. As fat young boys have lower durability in accordance with mass.
Finding the group-wise assessment showed that there was a statistically significant distinctions in the post- treatment SEBT and SLST amalgamated credit score between Control Group and traditional Group and exclusive balance training, In SEBT the difference between control group and electronic reality balance training group not significant, This may be because of the reason that not significant muscular engagement in the training in today's research. And in the original balance training having significant muscular participation, Within the SLSTEOP and SLSTECL also having same as in SEBT balance effect in every the Group. In the virtual simple fact balance training group balance not significant improving, This could be learning effect of the game level. The result of the present analysis showed that there is a big change between your traditional and exclusive simple fact balance group. The reason why may be the proprioception and muscular version and augmentation of neuromuscular factors in the original balance group.
The result of within group analysis of the varying of the control group in this research proved a statistically no significant difference between pre and post intervention value of SEBT, SLSTEOP and SLSTECL amalgamated score. The reason behind this could be no specific training which matters in this group adopted.
Findings of the research demonstrated that virtual truth group showed a almost regular SEBT composite rating after six week. And some reduction in SLSTEOP and SLSTECL amalgamated rating, The seems pursuing reasons of the decrease learning effect of the overall game or some change in weight of the topic in this group adopted.
This study proved that there is a statistically highly significant difference between the pre-intervention and post involvement score of SEBT, SLSTEOP and SLSTECL in traditional balance training group (p=0. 001). The improvement in changing indicates that version relating to upsurge in leg power and proprioception and muscular coordination and muscular control.
In this research to critically examine the effectiveness of video game based balance training programs. Past research studies have shown that balance programs have proven effective in enhancing balance measurements in a multiplicity of condition9, 16.
This study establish the results of these prior studies, but instead provides positive evidence of efficiency for the clinician who use to the gaming centered activities in their balance training programs. In this particular research, traditional balance program involvement considerably improved upon in the Star Excursion Balance test activities from pre to post testing. The improvements were observed in activities that were also used as a training duration of exercise should be 4-week of period. It is a diverse likelihood that a training effect happened from these activities. However, despite their performance, traditional balance programs often elicit patient observance troubles. Additionally it is significant to note that in this review the traditional balance program experienced the less engagement and entertainment. 16.
Task chosen that was similar to each day life activities were selected. Growing from a sitting to a position position is one of the most frequent activities of everyday living. If children are less capable of lifting your body from relaxing to standing because of surplus fat mass, they might choose never to stand normally. Throughout a sit to stand test, substantial leg durability and an adequate range of joint motion are needed, posing a significant task to balance 36, 40.
Earlier review in obese young children demonstrated that lowered lower limb features impeded their capacity to rise from a chair5. More BMI children spent significantly more time during all copy phases of the growing task compared with the non-obese children, & most obese subjects changed their trunk backward before initiating the characteristic forward and upwards movement to stand. Our results are in arrangement with these conclusions. Overweight boys exhibited slower weight transfer and a lower rising index (indicated in % body weight) during the sit to stand test on the pressure plate weighed against normal-weight counterparts. This inner force creation in raising your body to a ranking position may be scheduled to insufficient leg strength to lift up the excess bodyweight. Overweight children also had better sway velocity in standing position, indicating they have troubles decelerating the ahead trunk motion following the rise. maybe it's also a result from lower durability in accordance with mass. Overweight children were also slower when undertaking a multiple sit-to-stand field test. As the multiple sit-to stand test is often used as an sign of leg speed and vitality 4, This poorer performance in the multiple sit-to-stand test in fat boys is within agreement using their lower growing index on the make plate.
The lower limb included maximum come to distance in a single limb while contralateral limb maintain balance in SEBT. The calf size having good significant relationship with excursion distance, as a longer limb would give a participant an edge in attaining that limb further. The level and excursion distance would also correlate significantly. Because elevation and leg length strongly correlate with one another.
The study implies the use of traditional balance trained in six week to enhance the static and vibrant balance in overweight individuals and reduce the chance of damage in activity of daily living.
With the assistance of this training normal people individual maintain health, which can decrease the chance of accident maintain and improve quality of life in daily activity.
The analysis includes middle age group and toned overweight specific.
Age group is variable (18-36) so that according to the several musculoskeletal and physiological changes occurring which can lead to balance problem.
Duration of the analysis six week, Because in this length of time the food behavior is not maintain so that BMI can be changes so balance can be hampered.
Sample including in the analysis was population largely 20-30 years, therefore the result can't be generalised to middle age populace group.
This study can be carried out on obese specific as only obese individual were found in the present review.
This research can be use biomechanical correction and increased the muscular co ordination.
This study can help in athletic people by increase the period of protocol in line with the activities specific.
The finding of today's analysis may conclude that traditional balance training group having a lot more effective for the obese individual, There is no much aftereffect of virtual reality training program in case there is overweight populace, it is more effective in neurological abnormality subject as previous review said. And we are boost the length of time of training, then its effect on balance is much more effective.

A contract for ioc-containers

**Do not use this library as long it is not 1.0.**

## Abstract

This project provides a documentation for the api and the behavior of three different concerns:

* InstanceContainer - a container that returns instances associated with keys.
* ObjectFactory - an abstract factory to create new object-instances from. E.g. used in factories to create new entities.
* MethodInvoker - invoke a method, function or closure. E.g. used in dispatchers to start a subprogram.

## Motivation

Lets say you wan't to build a rule-based service-dispatcher (or an http-router like silex), that invoke registered closures only if a certain condition is met:

```PHP
$serviceDispatcher = new ServiceDispatcher();
$serviceDispatcher->register('service-name', 3600 /* timeout sek. */, function () {
	/* do something every hour */
});
$serviceDispatcher->run();
```

It would be fun, if I already had the domain-objects I need to work with. This would look like this:

```PHP
$serviceDispatcher = new ServiceDispatcher();
$serviceDispatcher->register('service-name', 3600 /* timeout sek. */, function (BusinessObject $businessObject) {
	/* do something every hour */
	$businessObject->doSomething();
});
$serviceDispatcher->run();
```

`$serviceDispatcher` should not be aware of a `BusinessObject` directly. But the `ServiceDispatcher` may know of an generic way to call a `callable` (like a `closure`) and resolve those parameters by a component outside of `ServiceDispatcher`'s scope. How this is archived is not a concern of the `ServiceDispatcher`. It just happens somehow.

The goal could be archived with an Dependency-Injection-Container. There are different ioc-containers out there with quite different interfaces *(my current favorite is [PHP-DI](http://php-di.org/))*. So we need a common interface to pass an instance around which is aware of how to instantiate our domain-objects so that we could directly use them:

```PHP
$container = new Container(require 'config/di-cfg.php');
$serviceDispatcher = new ServiceDispatcher($container);
$serviceDispatcher->register('service-name', 3600 /* timeout sek. */, function (BusinessObject $businessObject) {
	/* do something every hour */
	$businessObject->doSomething();
});
$serviceDispatcher->run();
```

Now the run-method in the `ServiceDispatcher`-implementation could simply look like this:

```PHP
use Ioc\MethodInvoker;

class ServiceDispatcher {
	/** @var MethodInvoker */
	private $methodInvoker;

	/* ... */

	/** @param MethodInvoker $methodInvoker */
	public function __construct(MethodInvoker $methodInvoker) {
		$this->methodInvoker = $methodInvoker;
	}

	/* ... */

	public function run() {
		foreach($this->registry as $serviceName => $service) {
			if($service['lockUntil'] > time()) {
				continue;
			}
			try {
				$this->methodInvoker->invoke($service['fn'], array('serviceName' => $serviceName));
			} finally {
				$service['lockUntil'] = time() + $service['timeout'];
			}
		}
	}
}
```

### InstanceContainer

A `InstanceContainer` is mostly useful when in subjection to a di-container only a single instance of an object should be used. This is slightly different to the use of a singleton-pattern since you can have multiple di-containers with different configurations that may inject different implementations for the provided interfaces. For implementation details, look at the [phpdoc-blocks](https://github.com/rkrx/php-ioc-contract/blob/master/src/InstanceContainer.php).

### ObjectFactory

A `ObjectFactory` is mostly useful in common factories to create entities. For implementation details, look at the [phpdoc-blocks](https://github.com/rkrx/php-ioc-contract/blob/master/src/ObjectFactory.php).

### MethodInvoker

Invokes a `callable` method, function or closure and resolve the required parameters automatically of not already
provided. For implementation details, look at the [phpdoc-blocks](https://github.com/rkrx/php-ioc-contract/blob/master/src/MethodInvoker.php).

Opinion: What Cows Can Teach Us About Zoom Calls
In the torrent of news this week, one line especially pierced me: "Interactions may be less positive when they become artificial."
It comes from researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna and the Johannes Kepler University of Linz, Austria, who compared the vital signs of 28 cows as they were petted while listening to a live human voice, and those same cows being petted while they heard merely a recording. They published their findings in the journal Frontiers in Psychology.
