Friendships fall apart. Love falls apart. Families, they fall apart too. Is it hopeless when this happens? Was it just how it was supposed to be? I think, regarding interpersonal relationships, just like anything ill-built it needs to fall apart for something good, solid and stable to be built in it's place. Any relationship you may have that falls apart is an example of something poorly built up in the first place. Whether through lies, betrayal, silence or even something as innocent as distance, some things just aren't meant to hold and these are the hints of that. I believe wholly that you have to let it fall apart and scatter just to get to the part where something awesome and stronger rises up. Allow yourself to move with grace through the pain of the moment and onward to the next phase of building. You've learned a lot from that last fall. Though you might still be hurting too much to see it yet. You know what you did last time that engaged the demise. Were you quiet about things that bothered you? Were you afraid of setting boundaries? Did you just not pick up the phone and call, those times you actually did think about it. Did things happen and happen and instead of calmly letting your feelings and thoughts be heard you chose to sever ties? It has to happen, if it happens at all.
After a good fall, when something you've been holding onto has released from your grasp and hit the floor, scattering, I suggest you remain hopeful. Don't get too bummed out. It'll pass. The only conscious part you really have to take in this is the building thereafter. The next time you see a relationship with someone leading a certain direction have the courage to speak up. If it's worth salvaging you have got to speak up. You have got to do your part whether by keeping in touch, setting boundaries or just letting your voice be heard about something, you've got to do it.
You have to save whats worth saving and let go of what isn't. This is your happiness we're talking about, afterall.

August 12, 2781 SET
A culture of subversion was growing within the UEE. Though the death of Anthony Tanaka had occurred almost twenty-five years earlier, the seeds of dissent were only now beginning to grow. The people, subjugated for so long, were slowly building the confidence to speak out. The tenth Imperator, Ulysses Messer, was oblivious to all of this as he continued the massive architectural venture he had undertaken while serving as High Secretary during his uncle's reign. The project involved a redesign of many government buildings, but would also establish a standardized aesthetic for commercial and residential spaces.
It was upon this architectural canvas of grey government-approved buildings that colorful messages and imagery of defiance began to appear. Although each one was quickly removed, it only seemed to incite others to replace it with a stronger message, marking the first fledgling steps of what would become the revolution.
Near the middle of 2781, Imperator Messer X prepared for the unveiling of the final piece of his decade-long project and what he perceived to be his ultimate legacy: the Khanos Stadium on Angeli, Croshaw. Conceived as a forum, in which future Imperators to be empowered, the design of the structure was, according to Messer X, intended to "make all who stood within quake at their own insignificance." To pay for the monolithic structure, he had been raising taxes incrementally for years, bleeding an already over-taxed local populace to feed his desire to see the mega-structure built.
Needless to say, Messer X spared no expense when planning the gala event. He pulled military resources to lock down the city and line the route that his Imperial processional would take. Not only was attendance from the local populace mandatory, but they were expected to "maintain an appropriate level of cheer and awe." Declassified Advocacy Archive documents later revealed that members of the Guard were actually scattered to make sure that the last decree was enforced.
Messer X was going to leave nothing to chance that could jeopardize the culmination of his dream, but he was looking in the wrong places.
His two children, Linton and Fiona, had spent the past decade growing weary of waiting for their birthright. Linton particularly had become increasingly disgusted at his father's obsession with wasting money to build monuments. It was, after all, his money that Ulysses was spending.
An effortlessly persuasive man, Linton worked his way through members of his father's inner circle as well as prominent members of the military, Senate and Advocacy, in an effort to find assets that he could potentially manipulate against his father.
His younger sister began to build a network of contacts in the growing circles of activists, not out of any genuine desire for beneficial change, but simply as tools to be used in their plot for power.
On 2781-08-12, Ulysses Messer's convoy crept down the Caravac Bridgeway. Surrounded by protective glass, he stood proudly and gazed at the masses forced to cheer. Linton and Fiona were placed in a separate hover. As the Khanos Stadium rose into view, witnesses claim that Messer X openly wept.
That's when the bombs went off. A resistance group, surreptitiously aided by Fiona, had managed to place dozens of high-explosive charges into the foundations. The blast was much more powerful than anticipated, killing thousands in the stadium itself, and hundreds more who had been herded to wait outside the stadium as a welcoming group.
Messer X watched his legacy collapse in a cloud of flame and smoke. His Advocacy contingent quickly swept into action, diverting the Imperator to a secure location, but military forces that had pledged support to Linton intercepted them.
The streets quickly descended into a free-for-all as military and Advocacy clashed. Messer X's Guard units barely managed to protect the Imperator from the initial ambush. Ulysses fled through the streets of the city, before retreating into one of his newly minted government buildings.
His Advocacy detail dug in to try and protect their Imperator until reinforcements arrived, but found themselves quickly surrounded by several hundred Army and Marine forces. Ulysses locked himself in an office on the twelfth floor; that's when he looked outside and saw his son standing impatiently among the military.
It was only a matter of minutes before it became apparent that the military would overpower the Advocacy defenders. Imperator Messer X, realizing that he would not survive the night, took his own life with his ceremonial pistol.
In the aftermath of the coup, Linton Messer was empowered as Messer XI. His first course of action was to arrest and execute the revolutionaries that Fiona had enlisted to bomb the stadium, for the crime of treason.
While Linton Messer felt absolutely no remorse for the death of his father, there was one thing he couldn't have anticipated. His and Fiona's actions of that night created an infrastructure that invigorated the revolutionary movement like never before, a movement that would topple him from power eleven years later and pull Humanity from its dark age.

Q: vi substitute in json I have a JSON file which has a bunch of jpg references that I'm trying to replace with png. I want to match on a pattern where there is a double digit and period before the jpg, capture 1, and use it in the replacement. The issue is I only ever get pattern not found.
"plith":"img/01.jpg"},{"block_ha....

where the substitution code looks like the following
:%s/\(\d{2}\.\)+jpg/$1png/g

A: I tried this substitution command:
:%s/\v(\d{2}\.)jpg/\1png/g

And it replaced the line:
"plith":"img/01.jpg"},{"block_ha....

With:
"plith":"img/01.png"},{"block_ha....

If the 2 digits and the following dot can be repeated, you can apply the + quantifier to \d{2}\.:
:%s/\v(\d{2}\.)+jpg/\1png/g

In your original command:
:%s/(\d{2}.)+jpg/$1png/g

There seemed to be 3 problems:

*

*you use non-escaped parentheses to capture the digits, but by default you need to escape them. If you don't want to, you can switch to very magic mode by adding the atom \v in your pattern.

*you don't escape the ., which means that it will match any character (except a newline), instead of a literal dot

*in the replacement part, you use $1 to refer to the first capturing group, but it should be \1

She Texted A Gang Member, 'I See An Opp Wide Open.' Soon, Two Teens Died At Club Mass Shooting.
Source: State's Attorney Office; MEGAShe Texted A Gang Member, 'I See An Opp Wide Open.' Soon, Two Teens Died At Club Mass Shooting.
By:Victor Fakunle
Jul. 15 2022, Published 8:43 a.m. ET
A Florida woman acted as a lookout for rival gang members. Soon, two teens were shot dead, and 14 people were injured after a mass shooting.
Now, she will spend decades behind bars.
This month in Florida, Lee Circuit Court Judge Nicholas Thompson handed Kierra Russ, 24, two life terms in prison for the shooting death of Ste'fan Strawder, 18, and Sean Archilles, 14. Russ was found guilty and convicted of two counts of second-degree murder and one count of conspiracy to commit murder.
On July 25, 2016, Fort Myers police responded to a teen dance party at Club Blu at 3580 Evans Avenue after reports of a mass shooting. When officers arrived, they found more than 100 bullets had been fired, leaving two teens dead and 14 people injured.
In the aftermath of a press conference, several tips came through Crime Stoppers that led to the arrest of the defendant and her four co-defendants, Tajze Battle, 27, Derrick Church, 25, Dontrill Loggins, 29, and Demetrius O'Neal, 25.
Though Russ, who claimed to be at the club to perform that night, was not part of the shooters, prosecutors told the jury she was the lookout. Investigators found a text message, "I see an opp wide open," on the defendant's phone to O'Neal, suggesting an opportunity for the rival gang members to strike.
"She wasn't one of the shooters, but she played a role, and the jury found that," said Lee County State Attorney Sarah Miller, according to FOX 4.
He killed three people, including an innocent 13-year-old. A judge threw the book at him.
A Florida man chased after a victim during a road rage incident. When they stopped, he shot at him 16 times.
Two Americans murdered a cop in Italy in botched drug deal. They will spend their lives in prison for it.
Under Florida law, individuals who help to plan a crime will suffer the same fate and consequences as if they actually committed the offenses with the principal perpetrators.
On the other hand, Russ, a recent Dunbar High School graduate who had just turned 18nyears old at the time, argued she had no connection to the crime. The defendant apologized to the victims' family and also expressed being a victim caught up in the fatal incident as well.
"No matter what picture the prosecution tries to paint of me, I'm not what they say I am. I'm not a menace to society. I am 24 years old now and all my life I have never been in trouble. I was a young adult still trying to figure my life out. That night was the scariest thing I've experienced," Russ said during her sentencing hearing, according to News-Press.
Russ is the first to be convicted, while her co-defendants are awaiting trial. She filed for an appeal.
Thompson sentenced Russ to additional 15 years for the conspiracy charge and ordered the defendant to serve the sentences concurrently.

Orange Runners' Club double up at the Pinnacle
Orange Runners' Club double up at the Pinnacle2011-08-042011-08-04https://www.orangerunners.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/orc_logo.pngOrange Runners Clubhttps://www.orangerunners.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/orc_logo.png200px200px
Last Sunday a number of runners from the Orange Runners' Club did a double run of The Pinnacle course to simulate the distance/topography that they will face at the City to Surf next Sunday. The only difference being there will be no mud or rocks on the way to Bondi Beach! The keen runners were Frank and Kyle Ostini, Brian Penrose, Brett Sammut, Tony Syme and Kate O'Brien. Jess Richards and Dan Benton also did the double, but they kept on going and going……………and finally stopped at 30k. Jess is training for a half-ironwomen and Dan an ironman competition later this year.
Results for The Pinnacle 3k Men: 1st Tony Fitzpatrick (13.49), 2nd Mitch Williamson (13.57), 3rd David Craig (16.23); 3k Women: 1st Amber Rich (13.03), 2nd Nicole Williamson (13.56), 3rd Frehiwot Ward (14.40). 6.6k Men: 1st Rod Draper (24.17), 2nd Tom Gleeson (25.03), 3rd Neil Williams (26.48); 6.6k Women: 1st Laura Auberson (31.51), 2nd Rhianna Fitzpatrick (34.24), 3rd Cassie Bland (34.28). Handicap winner out of the 94 runners was Besu Ward.
94 people also ran at Elephant Park on Wednesday. Under favourable running conditions many people did personal best times. These include our pb regular Matt Dean (5 secs), Oliver Hopkins (6 secs), Richard Eggleston (13 secs), Lily Craig (33 secs) and Abby Dean (59 secs). Bryce Ostini was the handicap winner and Rod Draper ran the quickest time over the 3k course (9.25).
Congratulations to Nathan Sutherland who came 1st in the Outback 11k Festival Run at Ayers Rock last Sunday. He broke the race record in a time of 40 minutes. Nathan is in the Robert de Castella indigenous youth development running program, which aims to have an indigenous runner represent Australia in the Olympic Marathon in 2016. 6 male and 4 female runners will be selected from a squad of 20 to compete in the New York Marathon this November. Nathan looks like a sure starter in the Big Apple!
Congratulations also to Mitchell Strike and Steve Wensley. They were presented with certificates for running with the Club 200 and 600 times, respectively.
John and Carrol Moss are now back in Orange. They were on an extended holiday over in the United Kingdom and Europe and John did some work as a safety advisor at a mine in Ireland. We look forward to welcoming them back this Sunday at Lake Canobolas!
Just a reminder that at 5pm on Sat. 3rd Sept. there will be a number of seminars at the Hotel Canobolas for Orange Runners' Club members. Speakers include Dr. Gareth Thomas (sports injury management), Paul Davidson (exercising) and Jackie Jasprizza (nutrition). The cost is $10 for adults and free entry for children.
We run at Lake Canobolas this Sunday at 10am (3k/6k) and Elephant Park on Wednesday at 4.45pm (3k).

Editorial: DOJ probes Harvard
By Boston Herald editorial staff |
PUBLISHED: November 26, 2017 at 12:00 a.m. | UPDATED: November 17, 2018 at 12:00 a.m.
There is suddenly much wailing and gnashing of teeth over the "politicization" of the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division over its inquiry into possible discrimination by Harvard University against Asian-American applicants.
Because, well, that certainly never happened when Eric Holder or Loretta Lynch presided over DOJ, right?
The political angst aside, if proven, such actions by Harvard would be both odious and illegal.
And it's not as if Harvard doesn't have a history of such conduct. Its attempts to set a quota for Jewish students after 1925, when they made up more than a quarter of the entering class, are now well documented.
A civil suit was filed against Harvard in 2014 by the nonprofit Students for Fair Admissions claiming Harvard imposed a cap on Asian-American student admissions. Harvard officials say Asian-American students make up about 22 percent of this year's freshman class as they did last year. International students from Asian countries are not counted in that total.
The Justice Department probe mirrors the civil suit — but with a couple big differences, the chief one being the clout of a government agency. In fact, now DOJ is threatening to sue Harvard if it does not comply in a timely fashion with its demands for records.
"Harvard has responded with delays, challenges to our authority to investigate, and a belated, unacceptable proposal to restrict our investigation," wrote Matthew Donnelly, an attorney for Justice's Civil Rights Division.
The university has cited student confidentiality, although it has submitted redacted copies of student files in connection with the civil suit.
The other tool DOJ brings to this battle — which no private party could — is the ability to bring a claim of "disparate impact" — in fact, a favorite tool of the Holder-run DOJ on so many fronts. It's far easier to prove that Harvard's policies have had a "disparate impact" on Asian-American students than that they were intended to discriminate.
But if indeed Asian-American students have to have far higher SAT scores than their white, African-American or Hispanic counterparts even to be considered for admission, then that would be gross discrimination. And good for DOJ for getting under the hood of this one.

A 50x100 steel building is probably one of the most common sizes requested for mid-size steel building projects. As with any steel building project, the use of the building and the customers needs always influence the engineering/design to come extent. One of our jobs in assisting a customer with building design is finding ways to minimize the cost of the building to the customer while, at the same time, designing a building that gives the customer the look and functionality they are looking for.
Keep framelines to a minimum - when possible!
A customer using a 50x100 steel building for simple warehouse/storage use is likely not to require a lot of framed openings for rollup doors, personnel doors, and windows - and is not likely to require that any of the doors/windows be centered on either of the 50' sidewalls. As such, the building can be designed economically using 3 framelines - creating a building that is 4 bays at 25' each. Designing a building with a minimum number of framelines reduces not only the cost of the steel component of the building, but also reduces the cost of the foundation and the cost of erecting the project. When a customer has a specific need that requires a rollup door, personnel door, or window be exactly centered in one of the 50' sidewalls, it's likely that the building will need to be designed with 4 framelines - creating a building that is 5 bays at 20' each. Adding an additional frameline adds to the cost of the building, foundation, and erecting.
Keep framed openings away from corners - especially when designing for high wind loads!
For our 50x100 steel building customers in coastal areas, where windloads can easily exceed 150mph, it's often more cost effective to avoid placing framed openings in near the corners of the building. The reason for this is that it is the corners of the building that take the brunt of pressure during exposure to high winds. Placing framed openings (especially large framed openings for rollup doors) near the corners of a building creates the need to stiffen or re-enforce the building to compensate for this - which in the end results in the use of more steel in the project - which ultimately results in higher cost.
Are you thinking about a 50x100 steel building for your project?
Our dedicated staff is only a phone call away and will be glad to discuss your 50x100 steel building needs even if you are NOT ready for a quote just yet. We invite you to benefit from our experience and further allow you to assist us in helping you make an informed decision about the steel building in your future. Our design team is knowledgeable, experienced, creative, and customer focused - and our Pro-Select Erecting™ crews are among the finest in the industry.

On July 30, 2008, President Bush signed into law the U.S. Global Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria Reauthorization Act (H.R.5501). While this legislation rids the statute of unfair discrimination against foreign nationals with HIV, it does not repeal the ground of inadmissibility for those that are HIV positive.
The bill includes a provision that repeals the HIV travel/immigration ban by amending the current health-related ground of inadmissibility in the Immigration and Nationality Act to exclude any reference to HIV. This provision returns the authority to the Department of Health and Human Services to determine whether individuals with HIV should be permitted to travel to the U.S.
While this legislation rids the statute of unfair discrimination against foreign nationals with HIV, it does not repeal the ground of inadmissibility for those that are HIV positive. INA section 212(a)(1)(A)(i) renders inadmissible any individual "who is determined (in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of Health and Human Services) to have a communicable disease of public health significance." Until HIV is taken off the list by the Department of Health and Human Services, HIV continues to be listed as a communicable disease of public health significance under 42 C.F.R. Section 34.2(b)(4) and HIV positive foreign nationals continue to remain inadmissible to the U.S. This legislation has not changed the requirements for the waiver of inadmissibility.


"There were struggles, but it was awesome getting through that and being able to make an impact on a team where a lot of the guys are older than you," Snyder said.
His freshman year was so successful that he was named a third-team All-Big Ten selection and a unanimous selection for the Big Ten's All-Freshman team.
"By the end of the year, I felt like I really belonged," he said.
But after sitting out his academic sophomore year because of Tommy John surgery on his elbow, Snyder struggled during his redshirt sophomore and junior seasons.
"I feel like I still contributed a good amount. Things didn't really fall my way, but that's how baseball is," said Snyder on his two seasons where he hit .258 and .255, respectively.
It wasn't all bad for Snyder, however. In 2012, the accounting major was selected to the Academic All-Big Ten Team, something he jokes that his parents loved.
So, coming into the 2014 season Snyder seriously debated whether or not he should stay.
"I just told him, 'This is what we're going to do, this is what we're about, and I'd like for you to give us a chance,'" said coach Rob Cooper, who was brought in to replace Robbie Wine, who resigned last June.
Snyder noticed plenty of differences between Penn State's old and new regimes, none more than how Cooper and company have motivated the team's locker room.
The newfound team chemistry has led to a big season for Snyder, who leads the team in batting average (.337), hits (55) and on-base percentage (.418). He is one of two players who have appeared in every game.
While the team has hit a rough patch — the Nittany Lions have lost 12 straight games and currently have a 17-26 record – Snyder has performed at an All-Big Ten level.
"Steve's the kind of guy I really wish I could coach for more than one year,"Cooper said.
Once the season ends, Snyder has plans. He has accepted a job with PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP, in Philadelphia, which he will start in October.
Snyder and the rest of the Nittany Lions will face a major challenge thisweekend, as the team hosts 18th-ranked Indiana at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park.
The series begins on Friday.

In this demo, I'll show you how to make affiliate links in LeadDyno.
Let's start with the page where affiliates can sign up to join our program. If you've got your own LeadDyno account, you also have your own affiliate signup page. You can customize it as I have done here, where you can put in your company colors, your logo, and then this is where we're directing folks to get them signed up. Of course, you're welcome to direct them. We can also help you out if you would like via our affiliate network. We'll talk about that more in a little bit.
Staying on the affiliate thread. So as folks log in – that's how to make affiliate links.
They will be passed through to what we call their "affiliate dashboard," so this is unique to each affiliate and contains everything that he or she would need to promote your site and your product. So first and foremost, what we give them is a unique affiliate code and a classic affiliate link, so the link is gonna be the main way that they're sending folks to your site. They can copy and paste this link and put it on their own website if they have one, on their own blog, any email communications that they have, and then, of course, on their social media pages as well. They will get credit for anyone who clicks through that link and ends up back on your website.
Their credit is going to be reflected in real time, so they can see that as well underneath their progress here. So the affiliate I'm showing you is Sam. Sam's a blogger in our industry. So the nice thing about our affiliate dashboard here is that Sam's able to see in real time that he has currently gotten credit for sending us 1,682 unique visitors. These are, again, the number of folks who have clicked through his link. Out of those, 22 of them have opted in on our website, which means we also have an email address for them. Eleven of these folks have purchased, and then, thanks to these purchases, Sam has earned some commissions down here. So he's currently due another $108.30, which will be paid out to him at the end of the month, and you can see he's done real well to date, making $1,464 by being a part of our affiliate program.
The commissions are generally going to be paid as a percentage or a set dollar amount per purchase. You can set the amount. If you need help setting the amount, let us know. We can show you what others in your industry are doing, what others are having success with. We've also got ways that you can set up various nuances with your commission plans. If you wanna set up a recurring plan, you can do that. Multi-level plans are also possible. Per-product commission plans are possible for shop, all-time, big commerce folks. So let us know if you've got specific thoughts or things that you're lookin' to do there, and we can help out.
Finally, let's go through our social media shortcuts here. So these are front and center for our affiliates, makes it really easy for them to share their link. For example, if Sam's pressed for time, but he wants to share on Facebook, all he needs to do is click that Facebook button here. This is gonna log him in. It will tee up a post, which, with an additional click, will come through the Facebook feed of his friends and followers as if Sam posted it because he did. And then as folks click through or tap through, Sam will get credit for these clicks. Same idea on Twitter. He's got 140 characters to work with, so he can tweet this out. And then, as his Twitter followers see this come through their tweet streams, as these folks click through or tap through, Sam will get credit for these referrals here.
A couple more things I wanna show you. Our Marketing Materials tab is where he can grab things like infographics and banner ads and such. We've got the Creative embedded here. We've got his affiliate link embedded. So again, he'll get credit for anyone who clicks through these banners, so he can post these to his website as well if he would like. And then, finally, I have an archive of affiliate newsletters here. These are gonna land directly in our affiliate's email inbox.
Showing you an example of what one looks like, so this is an email that went out to our affiliates kinda advertising, letting them know that we now have everything that you just saw available in a convenient mobile app as well, which is a nice segue. So that, you know, everything that I just showed you is available for your affiliates via our affiliate dashboard app. So pretty simple to get this rolling, and it's available for both Google Play and iTunes. They just download our app, put in their email address. We'll match 'em up. We know they're a member of your program, and they will be good to go from there. You can get everything that I just showed you on the affiliate dashboard from the convenience of their phone here as well.
All right, let's flip over to the second half. I'm gonna take you through the setup of stuff I just showed ya, and then we will get into affiliate recruitment and get into your questions if you have any. So if you do have questions, go ahead and type those into that "GoToWebinar" window. We'll get to those in about four or five minutes here. I'm gonna show you how to do all of that setup that we just talked about. So I'm gonna walk you through our Content section, which is about five down, so halfway down on the left side with LeadDyno itself. Everything's basically customizable, so you can choose to go with our mobile-friendly version from here, you can select your color scheme, you can get your logo in here. You can even put the affiliate website on your own domain if you would like to do that.
Within the affiliate dashboard, everything from the header, to the introduction, to the instructions, all customizable here as well. To just change the text, you can just type in different texts, or you can also insert images, you can insert links, you can get to the HTML directly. We do support custom CSS, so if you wanna further style the page, you can do that. And if you want to do things such as require terms of service, you can define a terms of service agreement, and your affiliates will be prompted to opt in to this as they sign up on your website.
Also in our Content section, the Facebook post that I showed you, so the contents of that can be controlled by editing the contents. So this is going to be the title, other Facebook posts, this is the body, this is the URL that folks are clicking through to as they click your post. Same idea on Twitter. So we've got 140 characters to work with here, and then you can preload this content for them. So again, this is nice that our affiliates can just kinda click to share, and they don't have to sit there and think about stuff if they're pressed for time. In my experience, I find most affiliates do like to just kinda share and go, so it's nice to have this content setup here and preloaded for them to run with.
Moving on to a few of our key tools. So we've got the ability to write an affiliate newsletter, so I showed you how this looked from the affiliate standpoint. You can compose this from within LeadDyno and send it out. A couple of tips that I would share with you in terms of writing effective newsletters. One would be just the timing of sending out these newsletters. I like to time these with our affiliate payments, as I find it's always a nice way to get everyone's attention and let 'em know that money's going out the door and that they can click through their affiliate dashboard to see their progress, which is also where they have all of their social sharing buttons conveniently located.
We can also fire off emails to affiliates in an automated basis, so I've got these automated emails. You've got these at your disposal as well, so these you'll send out automatically from the system. So it's nice that these will keep your affiliates engaged without you having specifically to do anything. So for example, when a new affiliate signs up, we can send them a welcome email that looks like this, which contains their affiliate link as well as the link to their affiliate dashboard, so everything that they need to get up and running.
Also, on the automated side, we can let them know how they did for the week, so the number of visitors, leads, and purchases that they got credit for. And then you can also let 'em know every time they got credit for a new opt-in or a new purchase. So again, these emails, customizable. In my case, I'm lettin' 'em know who it was that they referred. You can do the same if you'd like, so you can tweet the email, you can pop in your own variables. And again, you just kinda set this up once, and then the system will send out these automated emails as a way to keep your affiliates engaged as they're selling for you.
All right, and then our last topic, but probably our most popular one, is affiliate recruitment. So I have two techniques I'm gonna share with you today. First is gonna be our affiliate invitation email. This will go out to folks as they buy from you and invite them to join your affiliate program. So this is a real nice way to grow your base of affiliates organically, a nice way to get a 2 for 1, where you've got a new customer and what we're gonna do here is see if we can get you a new affiliate at the same time.
In my experience, I've been real happy with the uptake in the number of folks, number of our customers who have enthusiastically signed up for our affiliate program. I know this technique has worked real well for many of our customers as well, so I would encourage you to check it out. Not much you need to do beyond enabling the email, writing it as you would like, and then you'll be able to get this going out to folks as they buy from you.
And then another way that we can recruit and get some more affiliates is gonna be our affiliate network. So in here, we're gonna let you reach out to prospective affiliates who look like good fits for your programs to do this. You can either recruit affiliates on your end, or you can set up your own affiliate profile as well. I'd recommend you do both where we're gonna get you a listing in our affiliate directory here, so within your category, we'll talk about your product, and we will talk about your affiliate program here as well. Affiliates are gonna be able to apply with a single click. And this will route them through to your program and they can start promoting right away, if you've got Auto Approval on, so a nice to get access to affiliates and influencers who you might not currently know.
To join our network, pretty easy. Just hit the Network tab in the lower left corner of LeadDyno, and this will bounce you over to our network where you can set up your profile featuring your product, featuring your affiliate program. And then, if you're new, please do let me know. Reach out to me and let me know. If we can get you featured in the newsletter that's gonna go out to our affiliates and newsletters, we would love to do that, showcase your program as well and help get you more exposure right away.
All right, and then, finally, we will talk affiliate payouts. And then I see I've got a couple of questions in here, so let's go into those in a moment. When it's time to pay folks, we'll just hit our pay button. I've got everyone I owe commissions to teed up here, so I can pay through the end of the month. And when it's time to send out the money, I can hit the Paypal button to tee up a Paypal payment from me out to each affiliate for the amount that I owe them. If I'm cuttin' a check, I can mark somebody off as being manually paid. Other options, coin-based, will let us send bitcoin as a form of payment. Paypal Mass Pay is an option if you wanna pay a bunch of people or everyone all at one time.
Okay, so with that, let's get into your questions. So you can also get a hold of us. Let me show you our support info. We do have support seven days a week via phone, email, and live chat. Questions we've got. Someone with an affiliate who is looking to bring in more affiliates, so the question here would be… I believe we're lookin' to setup a multi-level commission structure, so you could set up a multi-level commission structure where your affiliate could get awarded for the affiliates that they are bringing in.
Let me show you how…let me send you a document based on this, and we can actually review it in a moment here as well. So if we're lookin' to set up a multi-level structure…I will send an answer to this question out…moving into LeadDyno, when we're setting up our commission payments. I've got my commission payments here. What I can do is let me show you how this looks in our current plan. This is our basic commission payment, so if we're payin' a fixed amount or a percentage.
Below, under the Advanced Types here, so we click Advanced Options. This is where you'll get your multi-level support. So you can actually set up all the way up to 10 levels on the multi-level side if you're interested in doing that. Basically, assign a different dollar amount or a different commission for each level that you got here, and we're also happy to help you set this up if you would like. Then how is your affiliate going to invite these folks, gonna invite the other affiliates? We've got an Invite tab available from the affiliate dashboard, where they're welcome to put in the email address of the folks that they would like to invite here.
Question on our affiliate network so yes, this is the Network tab in the lower left corner here, so that's what I showed you in terms of e-commerceaffiliates.com. So this is our affiliate network, which is gonna be able to feature your product and your affiliate program here as well.
Question on Ecwid whether LeadDyno does support Ecwid, and yes, we do. This is a new integration where you can connect to your Ecwid cart. Just showing you the current integrations that we have, so we do support Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, of course, being the big ones. Recharge is a new one for recurring subscriptions here as well. So if you've got a question on a specific integration, let us know here also.
Okay, and looks like that's it for questions, so let me show how to get a hold of additional support. So typically, the system can be set up within…I would say, within a few hours, you can get everything locked and loaded. If you do need help, just let us know at any time. Here's our contact info, so again, phone, email, live chat available seven days a week. Live chat's probably the most convenient way to get something started. That's available in the lower right on the website here, lower right within LeadDyno. And then if you have anything for me, brett@leaddyno.com. We'll go back, so maybe we can start back one-on-one on anything that you have.
Otherwise, thank you for joining. Hope it was helpful today. Stay in touch. Hope everyone has a great Monday and a great rest of your week.
Sorry, one more question coming in, "How do we turn on Auto Approval for affiliates?" That is going to be enabled by default, so your affiliates are going to be automatically approved under…I believe that is under Affiliate Settings. No, I'm sorry. It's under Content. Configure Affiliate Website, Affiliates Require Approval is going to be right here. So if you look down at the bottom for Affiliates to Require Approval, by default, it's going to be off.
If you want to not approve affiliates automatically, you can toggle this to On. But if you're looking for Auto Approval, just leave this off and you will be good to go. Affiliates will be auto-approved. That's what I recommend. In my experience, the more the merrier. LeadDyno helps with the automation of the management of this stuff, so I just auto-approve everyone. But up to you, this is where the setting is located within the system.
Okay, let me take another look, see if we have any questions. We do not. So thank you, again, everyone for your questions, and do stay in touch. Let me know if there's anything else that you think of afterwards. Have a great rest of your Monday, great rest of your week. Keep me posted on your affiliate program launch, love to help how we can, and hope to hear from you soon.

Do dogs show an optimistic or pessimistic attitude to life?: A review of studies using the 'cognitive bias' paradigm to assess dog welfare
Burman, Oliver (2014) Do dogs show an optimistic or pessimistic attitude to life?: A review of studies using the 'cognitive bias' paradigm to assess dog welfare. In: The social dog: behavior and cognition. Elsevier Inc., pp. 347-372. ISBN 9780124078185
The capacity for animals to experience affective states such as fear or pleasure is central to the study of animal welfare, and cognitive measures of affect, and thus welfare, are increasingly popular. The 'cognitive bias' paradigm is based on findings that affective state can influence cognitive processes in humans. For example, people in negative affective states judge ambiguous stimuli negatively (are relatively 'pessimistic') compared to happier individuals. Cognitive bias therefore represents an opportunity to assess affective state. Since its first translation to non-human animals, the cognitive bias paradigm has been used in a range of species, including dogs. This chapter reviews the methodological differences and similarities between the various dog studies, using these to identify potential limitations and areas for future research, before reflecting on the utility and efficacy of the cognitive bias paradigm as a way to assess different aspects of dog welfare. © 2014 Elsevier Inc.

Q: How to unit test date related methods? I have a method like below ,
public static boolean isBetweenMonthDays(int startDayOfMonth,
        int endDayOfMonth) {

    LocalDate today = LocalDate.now();

    if (today.getDayOfMonth() >= startDayOfMonth
        && today.getDayOfMonth() <= endDayOfMonth) {
        return true;
    }

    return false;
    }

This is a simple method in utility class but there are many other complicated methods too and result is dependent on today's date so my asserts will fail on certain dates.
What is preferred to unit test such methods?
UPDATE: are these below kind of unit tests considered bad practice since most are advising in injecting LocalDate dependency & making class testable?
I am hesitant in doing that since its a static utility class and clients work only on integers?
@Test
    public void testIsBetweenMonthDays_success_true() {

    LocalDate today = LocalDate.now();

    boolean result = ResponseMatchingUtil.isBetweenMonthDays(10, 25);

    if (today.getDayOfMonth() >= 10 && today.getDayOfMonth() <= 25)
        assertTrue(result);
    else
        assertFalse(result);

    }

    @Test
    public void testIsBetweenMonthDays_success_false() {

    LocalDate today = LocalDate.now();

    boolean result = ResponseMatchingUtil.isBetweenMonthDays(4, 10);

    if (today.getDayOfMonth() >= 4 && today.getDayOfMonth() <= 10)
        assertTrue(result);
    else
        assertFalse(result);

    }

A: Refactor it so it becomes testable:
public static boolean isBetweenMonthDays(int startDayOfMonth,
        int endDayOfMonth, LocalDate date) {

    if (date.getDayOfMonth() >= startDayOfMonth
        && date.getDayOfMonth() <= endDayOfMonth) {
        return true;
    }

    return false;
    }

public static boolean isBetweenMonthDays(int startDayOfMonth,
        int endDayOfMonth) {

    return isBetweenMonthDays(startDayOfMonth, endDayOfMonth, LocalDate.now());
    }

Accept no substitutes – Assignment will not cure defective trade mark filing
By Helen Macpherson (AU) on June 14, 2017 Posted in Trademark
The Full Court of the Federal Court has issued a significant decision in relation to trade mark ownership, which reconfirms the position in relation to the assignment of trade mark applications which have been filed in incorrect applicant names. The decision in Pham Global Pty Ltd v Insight Clinical Imaging Pty Ltd [2017] FCAFC 83 clarifies the standing of the widely cited and followed decision in Crazy Ron's Communications Pty Limited v Mobileworld Communications Pty Limited [2004] FCAFC 196. Statements made by the Full Court in the Crazy Ron's decision have been relied on by some brand owners and attorneys as authority for the position that the requirement that the applicant be the owner of the trade mark can be satisfied at any time during the application process. The Full Court in Pham Global has finally given some clarity to brand owners and attorneys alike that these statements are 'plainly wrong'.
Brand owners and their attorneys must make certain that applications are filed in the name of the mark's actual owner. Ownership can arise in one of two ways: first by reason of authorship and prior use; and secondly by reason of authorship, the filing of the application, and an intention to use the mark.
Critically, mistakes as to ownership cannot be cured after filing by assignment to the rightful owner. This means that applications filed in the wrong name are vulnerable to revocation or opposition on the ground that the applicant at the time of filing was not the owner of the trade mark. Withdrawing and refiling the application in the rightful owner's name will be the only real means of resolution in such cases.
Prospective assignees and purchasers of trade marks must also ensure that ownership history is reviewed in pre-transaction investigations. Where there is any doubt about a mark's original ownership, appropriate indemnities or warranties should be obtained.
Pham Global Pty Ltd, which subsequently changed its name to Insight Radiology Pty Ltd (IR) appealed to the Full Court against a decision by a single Federal Court judge that held, among other things, that IR's trade mark should be refused registration because it was substantially identical to a mark registered to Insight Clinical Imaging Pty Ltd (ICI).
The IR trade mark The ICI trade mark
Although the Full Court dismissed IR's appeal on all grounds, it devoted considerable attention to the primary judge's rejection of several of ICI's grounds of opposition, chief of which was ICI's opposition based on ss 27(1)(a) and 58 of the Trade Marks Act 1995 (Cth) (Act).
Section 58 provides that the registration of a trade mark may be opposed on the ground that "the applicant is not the owner of the trade mark". Section 27(1)(a) states that a trade mark application must be in the name of a person who "claims to be the owner of the trade mark".
ICI argued that the application for the IR trade mark was invalid because it was filed in the name of Mr Pham, who did not own the trade mark, rather IR owned the trade mark. ICI argued that the later assignment of the application to IR did not cure this mistake. IR agreed that it was the owner of the trade mark but argued that, further to assignment, it was now also the named applicant on the application, therefore section 58 did not apply. The primary judge rejected ICI's contention that the initial designation of Mr Pham as applicant was fatal to the application. Her Honour instead decided (relying on statements in Crazy Ron's, among other cases) that the requirement that the applicant be the owner of the trade mark could be satisfied at any stage of the application, not only at the filing date.
Ruling on question of ownership
The Full Court unanimously ruled that ICI's opposition in relation to ss 27(1)(a) and 58 should have been allowed. In summary, their Honours held:
The Act provides for registration of ownership and not ownership by registration.
Any support that can be gained from Crazy Ron's for the view that the requirement of ownership can be satisfied at any stage of the application process is "plainly wrong".
If the requirement of ownership could be satisfied at any stage of the application process, there would be nothing to stop applicants filing trade mark applications for marks that they did not own, on the basis that the marks could be validly assigned to their rightful owners at some undefined future point.
A registered trade mark owner's rights extend back to the application's filing date. It is therefore essential that the initial applicant be the rightful owner as at that date.
The broad definition given to "applicant" in section 6(1) of the Act and the use of the present tense in section 58 make it tempting to conclude that ownership can be determined as at the time of the opposition proceedings. However, the Act's overall scheme and well-established common law principles mean that this approach cannot be accepted. In the context of section 58 "Applicant" must be interpreted as being the person in whose name the application was originally filed.
Both the broad definition of "applicant" and the use of present tense in s 58 are necessary because of ss 106-111 of the Act, which allow assignment of a trade mark whose registration is still being sought.
While trade marks can be assigned in the application stage, the assignment is of the trade mark itself, not only the application. The assignor must actually own the trade mark in order to validly assign it (along with any registrations or applications to register the trade mark). Filing an application, or even having a registration for a trade mark does not, of itself, confer ownership.
Only the true owner of a trade mark can validly file an application to register the trade mark. If an application is filed in the wrong name, assignment of the application to the rightful owner does not resolve the issue. As mentioned above, an assignment relates to a transfer in ownership of the trade mark not just the application for registration. If the initial applicant is not the owner of the trade mark, they are not capable of assigning the trade mark or application because it cannot assign that which it does not own.
Mr Pham was not the owner of the IR mark, therefore he could not assign the IR mark to the true owner, IR. As a result, there was nothing that could be done to cure the deficiency in the ownership of the application for the registration of the IR mark and the grounds of opposition under section 58 had been established.

Discussion in 'Designers and Collections' started by Astrid21, Sep 17, 2003.
I'm disappointed. Miguel's work is always 50/50 with me. I like that he stays true to himself and rarely goes commercial; I just wish I liked his designs more. Plus they seemed a little heavy for Spring, no? A few of the designs I did like were the first two black dresses and the black leather sacks.
This collection is really him. The military-inspried jackets and the Arab prints were very Adrover Fall '01. But was it a good one for him? No, not really, IMO. No wearability and the influences are way too much for everyday dressing. He should have used them (Arab influences) as just inspirations and made them urbanly modern. Another thing I didn't like is it seemed that it wasn't moving forward, just a retrospective of the past collections.
i don't really like it. those pieces that are more or less wearable could come from anyone, they don't really look "Adrover" IMO. actually, i was never a fan of his in the first place.
Similar to some Martin Margiela boots for men not too long ago. Adrover also showed these boots on men.

right now I can only do the cross join for single items, how do I do a check for support in the association rules?
right now my code only gets the single items
itemsupport as (
select distinct
item, count(distinct order_id)/count(distinct order_id) over() support
from table_orderDetails
)
select
sa.item itemset_buy,sa.support itemset_support,
itemsupport.itemset consequent_items, itemsupport.support consequent_support,
string_agg(struct(sa.itemset, itemsupport.item) helpersupport #helper to find support
 from itemsupport sa
left join itemsupport using(item)

this gives me until the consequent_support. How do I check for support where for example for 1st cross join from row in association rules for itemset colgate-kellogs-dettol-colgate-kellogs-dettol is check in order details if it exist and if it does is divided by total orders?


Abstract: In this report, we present a formal approach that addresses the problem of emergence of phase transitions in stochastic and attractive nonlinear threshold Boolean automata networks. Nonlinear networks considered are informally defined on the basis of classical stochastic threshold Boolean automata networks in which specific interaction potentials of neighbourhood coalition are taken into account. More precisely, specific nonlinear terms compose local transition functions that define locally the dynamics of such networks. Basing our study on nonlinear networks, we exhibit new results, from which we derive conditions of phase transitions.


Youngstown, Ohio is the metro area where homes are the most affordable in the nation.
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — Buying a home is now more affordable than it has been in the last twenty years.
Thanks to continued declines in home prices and rock-bottom mortgage rates, the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Opportunity Index hit a record level of affordability.
Unfortunately, being able to afford a home and actually being able to buy one are two different matters entirely. According to Barry Rutenberg, chairman of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and a home builder from Gainesville, Fla., potential home buyers are still finding it difficult to land mortgages.
"While today's report indicates that home ownership is within reach of more households than it has been for more than two decades, overly restrictive lending conditions confronting home buyers and builders remain significant obstacles to many potential home sales," he said.
Those who do land a mortgage, will be able to take advantage of rates thatseem to hit a new low every week. This week interest rates for 30-year loans averaged a record low of 3.87%, according to Freddie Mac.
Youngstown, Ohio is the most affordable major metro area in the nation to buy a home, according to the NAHB. The faded steel town, located in eastern Ohio, could be on the verge of an economic renaissance with new gas drilling techniques that could help exploit nearby gas reserves, according to the report.
There, 95.1% of homes sold during the quarter were deemed affordable to typical local households earning the area's median family income of $54,900.
The other metro areas near the top of the list included Lakeland, Fla., Modesto, Calif., Harrisburg, Pa., and Toledo, Ohio.
Among small housing markets, Kokomo, Ind. had the highest housing affordability index with more than 99% of all homes sold there affordable to typical families. Fairbanks, Alaska, Cumberland, Md., Lima, Ohio, andRockford, Ill. were all very affordable as well.
New Yorkers could only shake their heads at the housing opportunities available outside their metro area. Just 29% of the homes sold in the New York metro area during the last three months of 2011 were affordable for the typical local family.
That's the lowest level in the U.S. — even though locals typically earned $67,400, roughly $3,000 more than the national median. It was New York's 15th consecutive quarter as the least affordable metro area.
Nearly as expensive are housing markets in Honolulu, San Francisco,Santa Ana, Calif., and Los Angeles.


Home » Copycat Restaurant Recipes » Boston Market Macaroni and Cheese – forget the stuff in the blue box, take a few more minutes, and serve up a tasty home made macaroni and cheese .
Boston Market makes homemade tasting food that you can take home. Now you don't have to go out to have restaurant tasting food. Our recipe tastes like their recipe. Best of all you can make up enough for everyone to have their fill. Our recipe is sure to leave your guests happy.
Forget the stuff in the blue box, take a few more minutes and serve up a tasty homemade macaroni and cheese.
Cook pasta according to instructions, drain and set aside. To make cheese sauce, melt butter in a saucepan add onion flour. Allow this to thicken, and when thickened slowly add the milk. When all milk is added, you may add the cheese. For this Velveeta, is really the best, but you can use another brand. Add salt, pepper, and dry mustard. When sauce has thickened, add pasta. Lightly butter a casserole dish, and add pasta mixture to casserole dish. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
I will have to try this recipe again, and see how it goes.
The recipe was easy enough that my 10 year old son made it. Although good, not exactly Boston Market mac and cheese.
This recipe is awesome!!! So tasty, and easy…far less expensive to make than to buy at Boston Market. $28.99 for a catering size is too expensive for the $4.50 worth of ingredients to make this batch of deliciousness.
I have always like the food at Boston Market I just don't like that the food is always cold when they serve it. I like my food really hot. So this is great to have this recipe I can make it at home and eat it while its hot!

Q: d3.js loading csv files with ISO-8859-1 encoding I'm trying to parse csv files that are ISO-8859-1 encoded with d3.js. Ascended characters break.
I know converting the file to UTF-8 would solve the problem. This is not an option in this case.
Is there a way of reading these files correctly somehow? Re-coding them with javascript would work if that is possible.
I only have access to the data through the javascript since my colleges are creating the files and they don't know about things like encoding. These are posted to a place I can only read from.

A: You can specify the mime type and content encoding explicitly, e.g.
d3.dsv(fieldSeparator, "text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1");

Home Science Ancient Polar Bears Survived Periods of Low Ice By Feeding On Dead Whales
Ancient Polar Bears Survived Periods of Low Ice By Feeding On Dead Whales
October 10, 2018 ·by Vadim Caraiman· 0
A new study indicated that ancient polar bears made it through low ice periods by eating dead whales. However, according to the same research, carried out by the University of Washington and the University of Alberta, the present-day polar bears are not anymore able to achieve that.
"I don't think we can assume what worked in the past is going to work in the future," stated Kristin Laidre of the University of Washington.
About between 150,000 and 500,000 years ago ancient polar bears derived from other bear species, meaning that these animals went through several periods of low ice, the most significant one being approximately 130,000 years ago.
Kristin Laidre, the study's leading author, and her co-author from the University of Alberta, Ian Stirling, hypothesized that the ancient bears survived periods of low ice by feeding on dead whales carcasses washed up on the Arctic ocean's shores.
"Polar bears likely survived those periods by accessing stranded marine mammal carcasses, and most likely large whale carcasses. They're such large carcasses that they can be packages of food for, in some cases, years," explained Kristin Laidre.
According to the new study, a population of approximately 1,000 ancient polar bears would have needed only about 20 bowhead whales carcasses to make it through the winter, while only eight such whales would've been required for them to survive during the summer.
Within a single stretch along the Russian shoreline of the Chukchi Sea, approximately ten dead whales carcasses a year are washed up between July and November. Even now, some polar bears learned to rely on that food resource in periods of poor seal hunting conditions.
"I think they [dead whales] were very likely the main source of nutrition" for ancient polar bears, added Ian Stirling from the University of Alberta.

If you wanna read about someone getting killed by smokers getting outraged in being told to put it out, here you go.
'm not surprised this "crime" happened. Me got it in quotes like that cause if those smokers were freely allowed to smoke in the UK bar, that murder neva would've happened. That murder was a self-defense murder to me. If someone is gonna make a big deal about a non-serious issue (smoking inside of a garden within a bar), that person should suffer pain.
And I DID warn about seeing smokers hiding guns on their bodies when they enter adult-only places such as bars. Smokers gotta do what it takes just to enjoy a cig in public and without going outside. Even if it means using a gun for self-defense.


Nexcess Review 2019: Is Nexcess a Good Hosting?
Nexcess is an amazingly feature-rich web hosting provider especially optimized for a select few CMSes including Magento and WordPress. Their auto-scaling Nexcess Cloud platform is their best feature.
Nexcess is an amazingly feature-rich web hosting provider specially optimized for a select few CMSes, including Magento and WordPress. In business since 2000, they operate five data centers across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
Nexcess promises superior loading speeds and server performance, particularly for Magento or WordPress websites. They boast that they're up to 13x faster than standard web hosting services – which, according to my tests, is a fairly accurate claim. They accomplish this by utilizing SSDs and RAID for their cloud storage, along with Apache 2.4, MySQL 5.7, and PHP 7.0/7.1. This power-packed trio offers much lower memory consumption, better load balancing, improved security, and greater performance gains.
One unique feature Nexcess offers is their auto-scaling platform for Nexcess Cloud. This means that even if your website experiences a surge in traffic or e-commerce transactions, the server's resources will be automatically scaled up to handle up to double the increased load – thereby ensuring optimal speeds for your visitors even during crunch times.
Upgrading to the M Shared Nexcess Cloud plan bumps this number up to 75 concurrent users (100 with auto-scaling), 125GB disk space, and 3TB bandwidth.
The highest level provides for 150 concurrent users (175 with auto-scaling), has 800GB disk space, a whopping 10TB bandwidth, 32 vCPU, and 32GB RAM.
Of course, you receive free SSL certification with all of these plans, and you always have the option of upgrading to an Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificate for the highest level of encryption.
When you're setting up your account, you can select from a few available CMSes, which will be installed for you automatically. These include Magento, WordPress, WooCommerce, ExpressionEngine, CraftCMS, and OroCRM.
All Nexcess users have access to the Nexcess Client Portal, which allows you to control everything about your hosting account via a single login. You can change your resource allocations, pay your bills, track your visitor analytics, and much more with this rich user interface.
Nexcess also provides free website migrations, and you can be assured that your website will experience little to no downtime during the transition. They even take care of backups automatically, creating them off-site every day and storing them for up to 30 days.
If you're comparing Nexcess to other cloud hosting services, Nexcess definitely isn't the most affordable. The trade-off is that many other cheaper cloud hosting services don't include the 24/7 tech support, auto-scaling, daily backups, website acceleration, and caching that Nexcess features.
Their auto-scaling feature allows you to have double the number of visitors on your website for up to 12 hours without any additional charges. After that, you can either pay by the hour or upgrade your service to the next tier up. This is a huge advantage compared to the pay-as-you-go model that many other cloud hosting providers adopt: you won't be punished if your website does well. In fact, you won't even have to pay, if that spike in performance is temporary.
Upgrades and downgrades are a breeze with the Nexcess Client Portal: you can even jump from shared to dedicated hosting platforms instantly. There's no free trial or free plan available, but that's understandable considering the level of service they offer.
Nexcess takes a proactive approach to customer support. Rather than leaving you to contact them when issues occur, they believe in constantly monitoring your websites and servers and eliminating problems before they occur.
However, in the rare event that issues do come up, their support representatives are available 24/7/365 via phone, email, support tickets, and live chat. Do note that you'll only be able to reach tech support after logging into your client portal – the live chat on their main website is primarily for pre-sales questions.
onClick="trackClickout('event', 'clickout', 'Vendor Page - Visit User Reviews', 'Nexcess', this, true);"
R J. (. o. o. f. o. b. s.
Nexcess pushes the envelope in developing new solutions, such as their latest cloud offering, but unfortunately does not have the experience, or perhaps funding, to back it up. We launched a simple Magneto instance on their most robust cloud offering only to have illogical technical limitations (like inability to vary permissions at file level by user) force us to open another, standard, hosting agreement as a workaround. Then, when things broke (as they started to, frequently), our tech team had to lead their to solutions, often after hours of downtime.They are probably a great host for standard or basic clients, but we had a very bad experience when we started to trust them beyond that. Ultimately we are glad we moved away as we achieved a much more robust solution for about 1/2 the cost, all said and done.
I think you should try Cloudways and write something about them. I am using their services for a long time and happy with the platform. I am using their Magento hosting service because my store was not performing well when I was using shared hosting.
If you're looking for a specialized Magento or WordPress host, you won't go wrong with Nexcess. However, they're best for mid-range websites or projects. Those looking for enterprise-scale solutions or a simple hosting solution for a single, basic website would be better off elsewhere.
Wondering how Nexcess stacks up against other Web Hosting companies? Enter any other Web Hosting company and we will give you a side-by-side comparison.

Q: How to successfully remove a tag from a book in Java? I'm working on PubHub 100 project. One issue I'm facing is that when I press the button to remove a tag from a book, the webpage returns an exception. During the course of this project, I have used Java Development Kit, Eclipse to write and run java programs, Wildfly as a server to connect the PubHub website, and PostgreSQL to access the database containing the books. Here is the code from the Tag DAO and the Tag DAO Implementation along with the servlet and JSP to remove the tag from a book.
    ///Code from the Tag DAO

    package examples.pubhub.dao;

    import java.util.List;

    import examples.pubhub.model.Book;
    import examples.pubhub.model.Tag;

    public interface TagDAO {

        public List<Tag> getAllTags();
        public List<Tag> getAllBooks();
        public List<Tag> getTagsByBook(String isbn13);
        public List<Book> getBooksByTag(String booktag);
        public Tag getBooksByISBN(String isbn);

        public boolean AddTag(Tag tag);
        public boolean RemoveTag(Tag tag);
    }

    ///Code with SQL statement to remove tag from "TagDAOImpl that Implements TagDAO"
    @Override
        public boolean RemoveTag(Tag tag) {

        try {

            String Sql = "DELETE From book_tags WHERE tags=?";
            stmt = connection.prepareStatement(Sql);

            stmt.setString(1, tag.getIsbn13());
            stmt.setString(2, tag.getTag());

            if(stmt.executeUpdate() != 0)
                return true;
            else
                return false;
            } catch (SQLException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                return false;

            } finally {
                closeResources();
            }
    }

                    <form method="post" action="RemoveTag">
                      <input type="hidden" value="${tag.isbn13}" name="isbn13"/>
                      <input type="hidden" value="${tag.tag}" name="tag"/>

                          type="submit">Remove Tag</button>
                    </form>

              </c:forEach>

A: One thing I can see, is that you have an SQL query with a parameter:
DELETE From book_tags WHERE tags=?

But you're setting the value of two parameters:
stmt.setString(1, tag.getIsbn13());
stmt.setString(2, tag.getTag());

I think you should use the ISBN13 in your query.
UPDATE:
The query should be:
DELETE FROM book_tags WHERE isbn_13=? AND tags=?

I am already following up Michael J. Schramm's Introduction to Real Analysis for my theory
But a problem book with varied questions on the concepts would help me a lot.
Please recommend some problem books.
Thanks
P.S : I have already asked my professor to recommend some books but he always recommends baby Rudin and also doesn't provide a lot of assignments. I am not compatible with Rudin's book. Also his tests are very tough as he wants us to cook up counter examples and I am very poor in that. So I need a good problem book to master real analysis.

A: What follows are from my bookshelves, not from an extensive search, so it's likely you may find others by googling some of these titles. Although I've restricted this list to what you're actually asking for, I hope you realize that there have been well over 100 undergraduate level real analysis texts published in the last 50 some years, many of which are likely in your university library, and the problem sets (and text examples) in these books should not be overlooked if you later find yourself wanting to conduct an especially thorough search on a certain specific topic.

A: I am personally fond of "A Primer of Real Functions" by Ralph Boas.  It's a little book, but I think it covers most of the topics you have outlined (maybe not the construction of the real numbers).  Although not a problem book per se, there are many exercises, and I think it is much more amenable to self-study than Rudin.  Most of the exercises have answers in the back.
In addition to the usual topics, Boas includes some interesting material not commonly covered, such as the Universal Chord Theorem.  There are only three chapters: Sets, Functions, and Integration.  Each chapter starts off very gently and then moves more rapidly, with the more advanced topics toward end of the chapter.
Disclaimer: I personally have only skimmed the material in the third chapter, Integration, because when I first read the book it only had the first two chapters.  The third chapter was added in a later edition.

A: Try these books:

*

*Problems in Mathematical analysis I, II and III : W.J. Kaczor and M.T.Nowak

Book I deals with sequences and series, II deals with continuity and diffrentiabilty and III deals with integration

*

*A problem book in real analysis: Asuman G. Aksoy an Mohamed A. Kahmsi

This book contains $11$ chapters and it covers almost all topics in analysis

*

*Berkeley  problems in Mathematics: P. N. D Souza  and J. N. Silva

This book contains some interesting problems in Real analysis also!
For General Topology, try this:

*

*Elementary Topology
  Problem Textbook: O. Ya. Viro, O. A. Ivanov, N. Yu. Netsvetaev and  V. M. Kharlamov

You should also try the following for general topology. This book contain lot of problems with sufficient hints

*

*Topology of Metric spaces:  Kumaresan

Enjoy!

Älvsborgs kyrka, tidigare Hagens kapell, är en kyrkobyggnad som sedan 1967 tillhör Älvsborgs församling (tidigare Västra Frölunda församling) i Göteborgs stift. Den ligger i stadsdelen Älvsborg  i Göteborgs kommun.

Historia
Under 1800-talet var det område i norra delen av Frölunda, mellan stadens gräns och Långedrag och som numera ingår i Älvsborgs församling, mycket glest befolkat. Till större delen utgjordes bygden av utmarker som tillhörde bondgårdarna i socknen. Före seklets början hade folkmängden börjat öka och utgjorde år 1900 cirka 1 000 personer, bortsett från vissa delar av Grimmered och några hemman. Där spårvägen Göteborg—Långedrag skulle gå fram, uppstod en viss koncentration och här bildades år 1911 de två municipalsamhällena Hagen och Långedrag. Folkökningen som orsakades av spårvägens tillkomst år 1907, koncentrerade sig huvudsakligen till tre olika områden: Norra delen av hemmanet Grimmered omkring den hållplats på Långedragslinjen, som kallades Stadsgränsen, något längre åt väster Hagen, och Långedrag. År 1922 bildades genom sammanslagning Älvsborgs municipalsamhälle, där den mark som tidigare stått utanför varje samhällsbildning, Käringberget, Tranered, Uppegården, Påvelund, Äckran med flera, ingick.

I ett upprop av kyrkoherde Gustaf Franck år 1912, vädjade han om bidrag till en kapellbyggnad i det tätbefolkade området i norr. Men då det där redan fanns en rymlig kyrka, blev anslag genom allmänna medel inte möjligt, utan endast genom frivilliga gåvor skulle ett kapell kunna finansieras. Francks vädjan slutade med följande ord: "På grund härav vågar jag vördsamt uppmana alla, som behjärta denna stora sak att å omstående sida teckna bidrag. Enligt af arkitekten uppgjorda ritningar och kostnadsförslag skulle detta kapell med omkring 500 sittplatser kunna uppföras för 30.000 kr. Dessa skola säkert kunna uppbringas, om enhvar efter förmåga bidrager därtill. Fastighets A-B Carnegie och C:o har med känd frikostighet skänkt en stor och utomordentligt skön och välbelägen tomt. Måtte Hagens kapell genom frikostiga händer snart blifva uppbyggt och samla unga och gamla till firande af Herrens sköna gudstjänst." Både större och mindre belopp tecknades på listorna som utsändes. Även insamlingskort trycktes, indelade i rutor där varje motsvarade 25 öre.

Kyrkobyggnaden
Hagens kapell ritades av arkitekten Yngve Rasmussen och byggdes ursprungligen 1917. Efter att ha brunnit ner den 20 januari 1918 återuppbyggdes det och invigdes 1919 efter originalritningarna. Byggnaden var försäkrad till 55 000 kronor. År 1940 målades kapellet om invändigt i ljusare färger.

Älvsborg blev 1967 en egen församling och därmed namnändrades Hagens kapell till Älvsborgs kyrka. Under 1985-1986 byggdes en förbindelsegång mellan kyrkan och församlingshemmet och interiören målades om i ännu ljusare färger.

Inventarier
Korets absidmålningar byttes ut mot nuvarande altartavla som är en triptyk utförd av Saga Walli.
Dopfunten av huggen granit skänktes 1924 till kapellet.
Nuvarande predikstol ritad av Axel Forssén tillkom vid renoveringen 1940.

Orgel
Nuvarande mekaniska orgel tillverkades 1959 av Hammarbergs Orgelbyggeri AB och har 21 stämmor fördelade på två manualer och pedal. Tonsättaren Sven-Eric Johanson var organist där under många år.
