Q: Controller using ASP.NET Core 6 with NLog appears not to get the correct logger instance via DI Having an issue getting the correct logger via DI, at least that is what it seems.
Here is the code in Program.cs:
var logger = NLog.LogManager.Setup().LoadConfigurationFromAppSettings().GetCurrentClassLogger();
logger.Info("Service Init");
logger.Info($"  Log Level - Debug: {logger.IsEnabled(NLog.LogLevel.Debug)} Trace: {logger.IsEnabled(NLog.LogLevel.Trace)}");

try
{
  var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

  builder.Logging.ClearProviders();
  //builder.Logging.SetMinimumLevel(Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.LogLevel.Trace);
  builder.Host.UseNLog();

  builder.Services.AddControllersWithViews();

  var app = builder.Build();

  app.UseStaticFiles();
  app.UseRouting();

  app.MapControllerRoute(name: "default", pattern: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");

  app.Run();
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
  // NLog: catch setup errors
  logger.Error(exc, "Stopped program because of exception");
  throw;
}
finally
{
  NLog.LogManager.Shutdown();
}

When I run the app the initial log information (logged to file) shows the correct values for the log level, for example if I set minlog in NLog.config to "Debug" then the value shows true in the log and similarly if I change it to "Trace" the log shows appropriately.
In a controller when I try and log the same information using the below, they are always false:
  _logger.Info($"Log Level - Debug: {_logger.IsEnabled(NLog.LogLevel.Debug)} Trace: {_logger.IsEnabled(NLog.LogLevel.Trace)}");

Additional notes:

*

*In the controller, any controller, no logs are being written to the configured log file. Only thing making it to the configured log file is from the logger instance created in Program.cs.

*I have a number of other solutions using the prior generation setup where you have Program.cs and Startup.cs. Those solutions also use CreateHostBuilder(args).Build() instead of WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args). The prior generation setup works as expected.

*NLog.Exensions.Logging and NLog.Web.AspNetCore versions are both 5.2.1

*Home Controller

    public HomeController(ILogger<HomeController> logger)
    {
        _logger = logger;
    }

And more notes:
I commented out the logger in Program.cs and also made use of this to obtain the configuration from appsettings.config. I've also made use of this when I create the instance of logger in Program.cs and so I know the configuration is correct:

*

*builder.Host.UseNLog(new NLogAspNetCoreOptions() { LoggingConfigurationSectionName = "NLog" });

Regardless of creating logger instance in Program.cs, when I do a QuickWatch of the logger instance passed into a controller constructor I see the the below. The provider type looks good, NLog, but where it is picking up a configuration I'm at a loss.

Finally, as per a suggestion from Rolf, I add this in Program.cs to see what NLog was doing, unfortunately it didn't given much detail. No configuration information listed:
  NLog.Common.InternalLogger.LogLevel = NLog.LogLevel.Trace;
  NLog.Common.InternalLogger.LogToConsole = true;
  NLog.Common.InternalLogger.LogFile = @"c:\temp\nlog-debug.txt";

The log output looks like this:

A: So I feel like I should delete this post to keep people from chasing down the wrong path ;)
Nevertheless, the solution was simple, and a very dumb mistake on my part. In nlog.config I had something like this:
  <logger name="<MyNameSpace>.*" maxLevel="Info" final="true" />

...where <MyNameSpace> is simply that, the namespace of the project.
I had something similar in another solution but it was less aggressive <MyNameSpace>.<SubNameSpace>.
Basically I was eliminating from the logs junk I didn't want, but I went to far.
Anyway, lesson is be careful with your rule because you will take the "applicable logger" out of the equation leaving you wondering why your logger isn't looking like or performing like you think it should.

Huh? The whole problem with the patent system today is that patents are _not_ awarded solely to processes. The fact that you can have a half-baked idea, patent it, and then use that patent as an anti-competitive and anti-progress measure is exactly why we have all these problems!
The worst part is that society gains nothing from such patents. The intent of patents was to encourage publication of ideas so they would not be lost, in exchange for protecting the inventor so he is free to commercialize his idea. A patented idea with no associated method adds nothing to society, and is only usable by the patent holder as a lottery ticket; hoping someone else will show up and create a successful business using similar ideas, so he can sue for damages, having created no wealth and made no useful contribution to society through that patent.


London 1818: Destitute, disillusioned and desperate, Lady Rosalind Marlowe sets the tongues of Regency London wagging when she becomes the Mayfair Thief. Targeting only those she knows won large sums of money from her father, bleeding him dry and causing him to take his own life, she decides to teach them a lesson. She takes something valuable from each, leaving her calling card with a bible quote behind her. On her last outing, she is caught red-handed. Her surprise that the old Earl had died and been succeeded by his handsome, much sought-after son, is only equalled by his amazement that the thief should be a young, beautiful lady of quality.
Bored, restless and guilt-ridden over the death of his own father and with his accusations of him being a selfish whelp still ringing in his ears, Lord Atherton heads off a bow street runner who is pursuing Rosalind and in an altruistic act he engages her to be a companion to his mother, leading her to believe he is making amends for his father's actions. Unaware that he has become the target of enmity from a desperate gambler from whom he has won a large sum of money, they are thrown into a series of increasingly dangerous situations.
Her brave responses to danger in no way reflect the behaviour expected of a traditional sweet young lady and frequently clash with his increasing sense of responsibility towards her. Her resentment at his frequent disapproval is increased when she discovers he hired her under false pretenses. Recognizing that her own happy ever after is as far away as ever, her pride dictates that she must leave her position and the new-found warmth and friendship she has found in the Atherton household.
Will they manage to overcome both pride and prejudice to finally find happiness or will an unexpected letter from a solicitor drive a final wedge between them?

Q: Integral of the log is less than the integral of the log of the average value This is an interesting property that I came across while reading an old proof on this website. The poster didn't really explain it, so I thought I might ask. We suppose $u$ is a positive measure on some space $X$ and we have a measurable function $f:X\rightarrow(0,\infty)$. Then on some $E \subset X$ where $0<u(E)<\infty$ and $0<\int_Efdu<\infty$ we define the average value by $\hat{f}_E=\frac{1}{u(E)}\int_Efdu$. The statement then is
$$\int_E\log{f}du\leq\int_E\log{\hat{f}_E}du$$
I tried it out with a few functions and it is true, but I'm not sure why. I presume it has to do with the concavity of $\log{(\cdot)}$ and it will hold true for any other concave function. Anyone care to explain explain.

A: Define a new measure $v$ on $E$ as $v=\frac{u}{u(E)}$. Then $v(E)=1$ and $dv=\frac{du}{u(E)}$. Now apply Jensen's inequality to obtain the result.
\begin{eqnarray}
\int_{E}\log \hat f\;du&=&(\log\hat f)\int_{E}du\\
&=&u(E)\log \hat f\\
&=&u(E)\log\left(\frac{1}{u(E)}\int_{E}f\;du\right)\\
&=&u(E)\log\left(\int_{E}f\;dv\right)\\
&\geq&u(E)\int_{E}\log f\;dv\\
&=&\int_{E}\log f\;du
\end{eqnarray}

KIRIBATI CLIMATE VIEW FROM MY SIDE
CONSEQUENCES OF CLIMATE CHANGE
By Symaa Navid @2adventurousnomads .
Kiribati, the first country rising sea levels will swallow up as a result of climate change
Global warming is causing glaciers and ice sheets to melt. The average sea level has risen 3.2 mm/year since 1993. This is catastrophic for islands and coastal regions. Especially in places like Kiribati, an idyllic Pacific atoll nation that seems destined to become the first victim of climate change.
Outskirts of South Tarawa, Kiribati's capital.
A typical postcard paradise. A group of 33 atolls located in the central Pacific between Hawaii and Australia. Stilt houses on the beach. Twelve different words for coconut, depending on their level of ripeness. Fishermen in sarongs collect shellfish at low tide. This is Kiribati. The first country that will be swallowed up by the sea as a result of climate change. Global warming is melting the polar icecaps, glaciers and the ice sheets that cover Greenland, causing sea levels to rise. It is estimated that sea levels have risen an average of 3.2 mm per year since 1993, according to the Fifth Assessment Report of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2018).
Predicted sea level rise.
This phenomenon is proving to be catastrophic for many coastal regions, especially places like Kiribati, whose entire territory is below two metres above sea level (apart from the volcanic island of Banaba).
WATER: FROM ALLY TO ENEMY
Half of Kiribati's more than 100,000 inhabitants live in the capital, South Tarawa, a narrow strip of land that lies between the Pacific and an enormous lagoon that depends on a freshwater lens. Life in Kiribati has always revolved around water. It's everywhere you look, always on the horizon. Children play in the water from a young age. It provides them with fish and a means to water their crops. But now, all they can do is look on as the marawa (sea in Gilbertese) turns against them for the first time.
A group of people cross Tarawa Lagoon in Kiribati.
As far back as 1989, a UN report on the greenhouse effect listed Kiribati as one of the countries at risk from rising sea levels. Ten years later, two of its uninhabited islands, Abanuea and Tebua Tarawa (the latter used by fisherman) disappeared under the waves. Now, storm surges cause the sea to invade the land increasingly more often, contaminating freshwater reserves, killing crops and flooding homes.
Isolated from the world's problems, the people of Kiribati never imagined that they would become the first victim of climate change. Responsible for just 0.6% of world greenhouse gas emissions, Kiribati has publicly asked for policies and initiatives aimed at reducing polluting emissions to be increased. The country's former president, Anote Tong, has spent the last decade travelling the globe to alert the world to Kiribati's plight and try to find solutions to the imminent catastrophe.
DOES KIRIBATI HAVE A FUTURE?
Kiribatians have already begun to emigrate in response to what they believe to be an unavoidable situation.Others cling on to their land, looking for temporary solutions: residents have begun building walls out of coral rocks which are then destroyed by the high tide. Some towns have shifted a few metres inland, and mangroves have been planted to protect the soil from erosion and mitigate storm surges. If the predictions are accurate, the atoll of Tarawa will be uninhabitable within a generation.
The possibility has also been discussed of building an enormous floating platform, similar to those used by petroleum companies, or temporary sea defences; however, both options have been ruled out due to their high cost—the platform would cost around 2 billion dollars, which is 10 times Kiribati's GDP.
In search of a more realistic solution, the Kiribati government has bought land in Fiji to grow crops and possibly even serve as somewhere to evacuate the country's entire population if the worst does happen. At the same time, the World Bank has argued that Australia and New Zealand should allow open migration of people displaced by climate change from Kiribati and other Pacific islands threatened by the sea. Until now, only the New Zealand government has responded to the needs of Kiribatians, allowing 75 people to migrate to New Zealand per year.
The reality is that this problem is not endemic to the Pacific. Kiribati could just be the first domino to fall. If the ice sheets covering Greenland melt completely, sea levels would rise approximately seven meters, and cities like London and Los Angeles would disappear.

Looking for a way to sweat like crazy but haven't got much space to work with? Turn that cell into your own private dojo with this full-body killer of a workout.
Been doing some hard time? Need something new to interrupt the routine of tunnel digging behind Rita Hayworth? Jailhouse Rock is not only here to break that routine, but it will also get you into prime shape enabling you to eventually break those bars…unless you're guilty of something uncool, in which case, stay locked up and rehabilitate, you'll be fine; just like Red.
Each exercise has 3 sets. These are not to be completed consecutively but instead in a circuit form. Meaning, you will go through all exercises 3 times (once per circuit). This is not a time-based workout. Take rests during the exercises if necessary (not many people can do 5 headstand push-ups at once!) Complete every repetition in your own time; after all, you have plenty of it.
This workout is designed by Stacey Quick, the body transformation wizard behind Mustard Fitness and our very own fitness expert.

Amendments to the 1978 STCW Convention's technical Annex may be adopted by a Conference of STCW Parties or by IMO's Maritime Safety Committee, expanded to include all Contracting Parties, some of whom may not be members of the Organization.
Amendments to the STCW Annex will normally enter into force one and a half years after being communicated to all Parties unless, in the meantime, they are rejected by one-third of the Parties or by Parties whose combined fleets represent 50 per cent of world tonnage.
The Manila amendments to the STCW Convention and Code were adopted on 25 June 2010, marking a major revision of the STCW Convention and Code. The 2010 amendments are set to enter into force on 1 January 2012 under the tacit acceptance procedure and are aimed at bringing the Convention and Code up to date with developments since they were initially adopted and to enable them to address issues that are anticipated to emerge in the foreseeable future.

In his first 2014 roundup of the latest apps, Sean Bacher highlights five of his favourites.
With Tagaboom, users can now turn their images and animated gifs into audible conversations by adding comments, sounds and music. The app lets users add doodles and include additional images and visual effects – ultimately creating an animated slideshow. Once the mashup is complete, it can be shared with friends and family via Facebook and Twitter.
Expect to pay: Free to download.
Most people like freebies, and this is especially true when finding a free app that previously had to be purchased.
The App Stalker app for BlackBerry automatically alerts users of apps that have recently become free or have been discounted. It is designed to work with the BlackBerry operating system, so alerts will be visible with a user's messages and notifications. It also integrates with BBM, allowing users to update their profile boxes with App Stalker updates – ensuring a bargain is never missed.
It is that time of the year where New Year's resolutions are made. The top of many lists will be to shape up, but making and keeping these resolutions are two different things. However, now there is an app to help you achieve your goal, in the form of Active Fitness. The app is suitable for most outdoor sports, including running, hiking, cycling and even skiing. It allows users to set goals, measure the calories burnt, record the distances run or cycled and even lets them compete against others using the same app. Active Fitness recognises speech, allowing users to keep track of their progress while on the go. It doesn't need an internet connection when in use.
Sometimes finding a suitable activity for the whole family can be a difficult task. The children want to do one thing, while the parents prefers something completely different, all the while having something else on their minds. With the I'm Bored app, users can now pick activities near them, categorise the activities according to interests, for example action, nature or indoors. Once an activity has been found that may suit everyone, they bookmark it in their favourites and set a reminder for when it starts. Events can be added directly to a user's phone and events can be opened to reveal costs, times, contact details and, in many cases, other visitors' reviews of the event.
Platform: Android. An iOS version will be available towards the middle of the year.
In an emergency, the last thing you want to do is fumble around with your cellphone, trying to decide whom to call. With the ICEPlus app, a single button is installed on the phone's home screen. When this button is pushed, up to four pre-determined emergency contacts are sent an SMS with your GPS co-ordinates. Future app versions will allow users to contact medical response, the SA CAN Network, and even armed response teams.

Just watch "I Clowns", if they please(d) you, you'll respect them, if they scare(d) you, you'll understand them ...
30 August 2013 | by ElMaruecan82 – See all my reviews
As far back as I can remember, I was always scared by clowns. Literally, my "coulrophobia" (that's the right word) happens to be my first life's episode I ever remember. So, allow me to start this review like Fellini did in his semi-documentary "I Clowns".
My first encounter with clowns was on TV (still a big screen from children's eyes) and being a sickly timid boy, I have always been unsettled by abnormality, let alone these creepy chalky faces with bright make-up. A few days later, during my 3rd birthday party, I saw one of my cousins being made-up as a clown and as fast as I could, I ran immediately to my aunt's knee and pretended to sleep, forcing my eyes to stay closed. Clowns became the incarnation of a devil I ignored all about.
And they were everywhere, I could hear their irritating voices on circus TV programs, watch them bullying poor "Dumbo", or hanging in these ugly paintings. The year after the birthday episode, my school's holiday party featured the two most famous clowns of my country. And I had to hide somewhere waiting for my Dad to take me, but the nightmare wasn't over yet: the same night, he bought me a 'memory' card game, and guess what? There were clowns there too, especially one picture that scared me so much I didn't even have the courage to throw it, I only left in a drawer. My cousin, who knew about my phobia, found it one day, and put it right before my eyes, laughing hysterically.
And I still remember the nightmares that picture gave me. Well, you got the point, clowns can truly affect a child, and coulrophobia is no joke. So, I could easily respond to the kid's traumatic experience in the opening sequence of Fellini"s "I Clowns". Their shadowy silhouettes as soon as the fanfare starts seemed to announce an ominous coming and as soon as they get in the spotlight for a four or five minutes of grotesque mayhem and ugliness, epitomizing everything I hated about them, I wanted the show to stop. Thanks, lord, I wasn't the only one, Fellini was scared by clowns, and hell, even Bart Simpson, the coolest boy ever, didn't want to sleep, fearing that the creepy clown-like bed would eat him.
My phobia slowly faded out, and I started to look at clowns more like pathetic characters, supposed to make us laugh of their ridicule aspect. And the point of Fellini's documentary is to try to understand the psychological roots of those half-repulsion half-fascination reactions clowns generally inspire. The study starts by exploring the probable causes of the child's fear: clowns reminded him of real eccentric people from the neighborhood: retarded, buffoons, creeps, freaks, genuinely hideous and irritating, but their personalities was even scarier because they were real while clowns are not.
Clowns are rooted in theater's history; their masks embody the least noble of human condition, allowing us to laugh at them, instead of fearing them. They have a cathartic power that probably inspired most of Fellini's approach to life. As I titled in my review of "Amarcord", we're all clowns in the big top of life. And Fellini's world can be regarded as a great circus, where the protagonists are all trapped in their own clowns' masks, while we watch their show. A clown can be a prankster, naive, well-mannered or mean-spirited, the purpose is to make us laugh, as if the ultimate aspect of life was absurdity and if life is all a joke, let's end with a fitting punch-line. That's the core of Fellini's philosophy.
And Fellini is the Ringleader of this Circus, driven by Nino Rota's turbulent fanfares. And only Fellini could have made such a jovial and poignant tribute, exploring in a semi-documentary format (he plays his own role) the historical steps that forged the clowns' archetypes. From Comedia del Arte's pantomimes, Pierrot's eternal figure, and some personal creations, two preeminent figures will emerge and constitute the pattern of most clowns' shows: the gentle and clumsy Auguste, and the elegant, sophisticated and serious white-faced clown, the obligatory straight man. Basically, all the clowns' icons: Medrano, Zavata, Bozo or those who scared the hell out of you as children, carried the essence of today's comedy.
There are a lot of insightful moments in "I Clowns", which works as an educational film. It doesn't provide a definite answer about clowns, but only a sad report on today's detachment. The last climactic sequence where veteran clowns (who've been interviewed before) pay tribute to a late colleague whose name sunk into oblivion is the perfect illustration of that loneliness innate to the clowns reflecting our own cruelty. I almost felt guilty for having hated them so much, and I like to picture them as misunderstood outcasts. A film about them was long overdue, and only Fellini could have made such a vivid, absorbing portrayal, almost working on a self-referential level.
Indeed, look at that head-shot on IMDb, it's probably the most eloquent illustration of Fellini's vision: he's half a clown, half a man. He incarnates this duality that prevails in clowns, both as the creators of their own caricatures, as artists, and victims of it, as men. And their conditions are driven by the audiences, and sometimes, meaner and more cruel than any clown in any number. The fate of "Gelsomina" in "La Strada" is the most tragic illustration of clown's conditions. And after the film, I guess I had more respect to clowns for their daringness to embody the unpleasant traits of human condition.
But from that courage blooms something absolutely endearing and irresistible, elevating the notion of clown to a state-of-mind. It's not just about make-ups and circuses, Fellini, just like Chaplin, was a clown, embodying the only real truth about life: it a serious thing that shouldn't be taken seriously.
And when you get that, you can get any Fellini's film.


Roma Finance, the specialist bridging finance lender, is delighted to announce that Daniel Hill has been promoted to Lending Manager .
Daniel has worked at Roma Finance for nearly two years and has played a key role in the company's growth. He has worked in the specialist lending industry for over 7 years and was previously an Underwriter at Lancashire Mortgage Corporation.
The new role has given Daniel more responsibility for assessing cases, carrying out expert and flexible underwriting and managing bridging cases to completion with all parties involved.
Commenting on his new role Daniel said: "This is an exciting time for Roma Finance as we look to build on what we have achieved over the past 18 months and our plan is to triple the size of the business this year.
"In my new role I will take on greater underwriting and case review responsibilities to help our broker partners on a wide variety of applications as the property and bridging finance markets continue to develop.


Physics Professor Stephanie Wissel has achieved a rare scientific feat, though not quite as rare as the particles she studies. Wissel received the National Science Foundation's most prestigious award for new faculty, the Faculty Early Career Development Program, or CAREER, Award.
Only five other Cal Poly faculty members have ever received a CAREER Award, and only 450 are given each year. The award supports Wissel's research with a grant of nearly $670,000 over five years.
"NSF Career Awards are a recognition by the National Science Foundation, and the eminent scholars who review applications, that our early career Cal Poly faculty are among the best in the nation for the originality of their ideas and their capacity to act on them," said Chris Kitts, Cal Poly's dean of research.
Wissel will test a new kind of detector for high-energy neutrinos, a particle that contains clues about fundamental physical laws and the most extreme environments in the universe.
Not many high energy neutrinos make it to Earth, and those that do are difficult to find. Scientists want to develop neutrino detectors that require fewer resources to build. Wissel will study a new option — a radio-frequency neutrino telescope placed at a high elevation. If the telescope is successful, scientists may be able to detect more high energy neutrinos because this method is less costly than current detectors and can be set up at multiple sites.
Wissel's award includes support for students to engage in hands-on research by helping to design, install and operate the telescope. Wissel will focus on recruiting students who are underrepresented in physics. This experience with real-world research may increase the number of underserved students who go on to graduate school in physics.

The MakerLab volunteers are a really important part of the lab. They help day to day welcoming makers, and assist with workshops and fixing printers. Today, we will introduce you to one of our volunteers, Dash Kosaka!
Dash started working in the MakerLab his freshman year after being recommended to try it out. When he started working here, he had never before seen a 3D printer before. And he had no idea how a 3D printer even worked. He is now a sophomore majoring in Computer Engineering and is a huge part of the MakerLab team. Dash loves to work with the printers as opposed to the software or modeling. He deals with any problems that occur with the printer malfunctioning. Currently, he is working with our guru, Billy, to get the food printer up and running. Even though he works mostly behind the scenes to make sure the printers actually work, that does not mean he does not print anything. Here is some stuff Dash has printed during his time at the MakerLab.

Q: Extension can't be found My WCF - configuration runs just fine on my developer machine. When I try to release it to the demonstration environment (another server), it will give me following error:
An error occurred creating the configuration section handler for system.serviceModel/behaviors: Extension element 'log4net' cannot be added to this element.  Verify that the extension is registered in the extension collection at system.serviceModel/extensions/behaviorExtensions.
My configuration, which is in both cases the same:
<system.serviceModel>
    <services>
        <service name="UI.WS.Services.MyService" behaviorConfiguration="ServiceBehavior">
            <endpoint address="" binding="wsHttpBinding"
                      contract="UI.WS.Services.IMyService"
                      bindingConfiguration="WsSecurityMode">
                <identity>
                    <dns value="localhost" />
                </identity>
            </endpoint>
            <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
        </service>
    </services>
    <behaviors>
        <serviceBehaviors>
            <behavior name="ServiceBehavior">
                <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true"/>
                <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
                <!-- Extension -->
                <log4net />
            </behavior>
        </serviceBehaviors>
    </behaviors>
    <bindings>
        <wsHttpBinding>
            <binding name="WsSecurityMode">
                <security mode="None" />
            </binding>
        </wsHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true"/>
    <extensions>
        <behaviorExtensions>
            <!-- Extension -->
            <add name="log4net" type="UI.WS.ErrorHandling.Log4NetBehaviorExtensionElement,UI,Version=1.0.0.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=null" />
        </behaviorExtensions>
    </extensions>
</system.serviceModel>

I already checked this hint, this is not the problem (and if it would be, it wouldn't run under development environment either I guess).
Any suggestions?

A: Well, I tried typeof(UI.WS.ErrorHandling.Log4NetBehaviorExtensionElement).AssemblyQualifiedName which gives me UI.WS.ErrorHandling.Log4NetBehaviorExtensionElement, UI, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null. This works now in both environments. To me it is an oddity - why did the first version (without blank spaces) work on my developer machine? In both environments, the application pools do run under .Net 4.0.3, so no difference here. Furthermore I remember vaguely reading somewhere, blank spaces in the type declaration should be left away due to a bug of WCF, which doesn't seem to be the case here.
Either way, this works now like that:
<add name="log4net" type="UI.WS.ErrorHandling.Log4NetBehaviorExtensionElement, UI, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />

'And this is what we sing – what do we sing?' Exploring the football fan songs of the Northern Irish 'Green and White Army
John Bell, Paul Bell
School of Applied Social and Policy Sc.
This paper draws upon digital recordings of Northern Ireland football fans singing in the stadium during all ten qualifying matches for the 2016 UEFA European Football Championship. Supplemented by participant observation and interview data with 21 supporters themselves, the paper challenges assertions within the literature which focus upon the predominance of sectarian singing amongst a section of Northern Ireland football supporters.
Although vocal manifestations of football fandom may initially appear to be randomly driven by irrational emotions; on the contrary, there is an underlying structure and sequence to fandom in the stadium in which certain factors promote collective singing at particular times. The paper identifies four key themes in particular; the timing in a match, whether or not a goal has been scored, if there is a lull or a break in play, and the use of musical instruments to encourage the wider collective to sing. We argue that it is important to understand the process by which collective singing occurs in the football stadium rather than fixating upon the alleged racist or sectarian psychopathology of the individuals involved. Such knowledge may assist in supporting those fan organisations that seek to challenge discriminatory behaviour in the stadium, particularly in the current context of the European (UEFA) and World football governing bodies (FIFA) punishing fans collectively, regardless of whether or not the majority in the stadium are opposed to what is being sung in their name.

Q: Use Data Subscription through python in TDengine I'm trying data subscription feature of TDengine.
I tested its Python demo.
from taos.tmq import TaosConsumer

# Syntax: `consumer = TaosConsumer(*topics, **args)`
#
# Example:
consumer = TaosConsumer('topic1', 'topic2', td_connect_ip = "127.0.0.1", group_id = "local")

...

When executing the script, there is an error information:

ImportError: cannot import name 'TaosConsumer'

Did I miss some steps?

A: I think you need to update the version of taospy on your system - taospy is the TDengine connector for Python.
Try running pip install -U taospy to update it and then do your test again.
Make sure you're running Python 3.7 or later.

Chiefs Foil OCC's Upset Bid
Jim Lassiter
Regardless of what gifts Luther Burks picks up at his 22nd birthday party today, the Oklahoma City Chiefs' leading scorer got the best present possible Saturday night.
It was his two free throws with three seconds to play, in fact, that put the punctuation marks on the No. 1-ranked Chiefs' 83-76 victory over the Oklahoma Christian College Eagles in a game that was every bit as close as it sounds.
"Happy birthday to me," Burks sang as he trotted to the visitors locker room after dropping in his 13th and 14th points. And since the Chiefs are now 24-0, it will be a happy birthday indeed.
The resourceful Chiefs, who have found all kinds of ways to wins this season, used lob passes over the top of the Eagles defense to seal the victory this time. Twice in the last 85 seconds, after the Eagles had drawn to within a bucket of OCU on the hot shooting of Steve Dunn, the Chiefs managed to get the basketball inside to Muhammed Akbar.
And once Akbar got the ball in the paint, he knew exactly what to do with it.
"We call that our "martyr' play. We give it to whoever wants to get in there and take the punishment," said Abe Lemons.
"We played good," said OCC's Dan Hays.
Also as you can probably guess, the Eagles, 21-7 overall and 3-3 in the Sooner Conference, still would like a third shot at OCU, which is 6-0 in the conference. "We feel the road to Kansas City (for the NAIA tourney) goes through Frederickson Field House." said Hays. BIOG: NAME:

If you and your spouse have significant financial assets and are getting a divorce, you need an experienced attorney. The financial impact of a divorce can affect your taxes, credit history, insurability, estate planning, pension, and business. In divorces involving substantial assets, understanding how to protect your rights and interests begins with an understanding of how marital property is divided in the state of Texas.
The division of marital property can be complicated. Working with an experienced attorney who understands what to look for and how to uncover hidden financial information is crucial. To schedule a free consultation to discuss your case, contact divorce lawyer Mark E. Wewers today.

Spousal support / alimony : The amount of property which a spouse receives can affect the need for alimony or spousal support, especially if the property is income producing.
