Saturday was the last night of the Summerfest carnival at Stonehouse Park and fireworks added to the neon-bright amusement park rides and midway.

Abu Dhabi's ADNOC, OCI partner to create MENA's largest fertilizer producer
The JV will become the largest export-focused nitrogen fertilizer platform globally
by Aarti Nagraj
The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) has formed a new joint venture with OCI, a producer and distributor of natural gas-based fertilizers and industrial chemicals, it announced on Monday.
The partnership will see ADNOC combine its fertilizer business, ADNOC Fertilizers, into OCI's Middle East and North Africa (MENA) nitrogen fertilizer platform.
ADNOC and Netherlands-headquartered OCI will own a 42 per cent and 58 per cent stake in the JV respectively.
The JV will be based in Abu Dhabi and registered in the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM).
The board of the new entity will consist of six members nominated by OCI and four nominated by ADNOC.
Dr Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, UAE minister of State and CEO of the ADNOC Group, will be chairman while Egyptian billionaire Nassef Sawiris, who owns OCI, will serve as the CEO of the JV, alongside his current role as CEO of OCI.
The JV will become the largest export-focused nitrogen fertilizer platform globally and the largest producer in the MENA region with a production capacity of 5 million tons of urea and 1.5 million tons of sellable ammonia, a statement said.
Annual revenues for the combined entity are $1.74bn, based on 2018 pro forma figures.
The JV will bring "greater geographic diversity to the platform's MENA production channels, enabling greater combined market access to strengthen market share", the statement said.
It will have a centralised commercial team with storage and distribution infrastructure and access to key ports on the Mediterranean, Red Sea and Arabian Gulf.
The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2019, subject to legal and regulatory conditions.
"Pooling our assets and capabilities is a value enhancing step for both companies, allowing us to leapfrog competitors to become the top nitrogen export platform globally," said Al Jaber.
"It will also enable us to access new markets, benefitting both existing and new customers."
In conjunction with the JV, ADNOC Fertilizers has also signed a new long-term gas supply agreement with ADNOC, which will provide its facilities in Ruwais with the required feedstock for its operations.
Al Jaber added: "This unique business combination will improve the profitability and cash flow of our fertilizer portfolio. It also supports ADNOC's objectives to attract investors to Ruwais by leveraging its strategic location, world-class logistics and the UAE's abundant gas resources at commercially attractive terms."
ADNOC Fertilizers currently operates two plants in Ruwais. The first plant, FERTIL-1, began production of ammonia and urea in 1983, and the second plant, FERTIL-2, became operational in 2013. The plants combined have an annual capacity of 1.2 million tons of gross ammonia and 2.1 million tons of urea.
ADNOC is currently the sole shareholder in ADNOC Fertilizers after acquiring the 33 per cent stake held by Total in late 2018.

Does anyone have a retail AMD 4600+ box only!
Hi I really need a 4600+ (939) box to return my CPU to AMD. I'm willing to pay for it. I being the stupid person I am accidentally pressed too hard on my CPU when putting it into it's socket and bent 3 pins. After trying to bend one of them straight I broke one so now I need to RMA it. Seeing how I need a retail version in box to RMA I need a box. I probably would have gotten the retail version however the OEM version was the only one available. Thanks for any help. PM me if your interested.
here is a reply by AMD.
Thank you for contacting AMD Technical Support.
that was an OEM part you should contact the company that you have purchased your CPU from in order to claim warranty.
Since Newegg won't take it back this is my last hope.
This is not the route I wanted to take but it is the only way to not have a new worthless CPU unless you know a different route I could take.
Do you have the Certificate of Authenticity?
No. I guess I'll need that too. I'm sorry for this I'm just frustrated with myself.
I think your screwed as the certificate contains the warranty, processor code and serial number info which must match what the CPU says. I blanked mine out on the attached.
Great. I didn't realize that the cpu itself had a serial number on it. Well thanks for the input, I think I'll see about a guy I read about who'll fix it for $30. Again thanks.
Yeah, buy a new one instead of sticking a company for your mistake.
They dont cover someone jamming the thing in sideways and breaking pins thats just plain not going to be covered sorry , hope you can find a guy that can somehow fix the pins ..
Thread moved to the OSNN market place.
Yeah... Im gonna be saying its your fault, thus don't even try to get a free processor out of it.
They call them ZIF sockets for a reason.
legodude83089 don't feel too bad. I dropped mine too i just lucked out and was able to fix it. Learn a lesson from it and you will make it worth the money.
I think I have learned my lesson about ZIF. I'm not sure about this guy I was talking about earlier but he shows all of his personal information so I think I'll check if that really is his info through whois. His website is http://motherboardrepair.com . If anyone else has used him, though I highly doubt it, could you tell me about your experiences with him. Thanks.
Also, as a sidenote to American Zombie no offense intended, I'm very surprised to see a man of your age being so technologically inclined, given that my father is slightly younger than you and hardly knows how to use a mouse.

Q: How to sort with condition in JAVA8 lambda I'm using Java-8 lambda to sort a list.
Here is list of
[(t1, tester1), (t4, tester4), (t3, tester3), (t2, tester2)]

after sort
[(t2, tester2), (t1, tester1), (t3, tester3), (t4, tester4)]

I want to get result as above
String specialId = 't2'

List<Test> list = new ArrayList<>();

Test test1 = new Test();
test1.setId = "t1"
test1.setName = "tester1"
list.add(test1)

Test test2 = new Test();
test2.setId = "t4"
test2.setName = "tester4"
list.add(test2)

Test test3 = new Test();
test3.setId = "t3"
test3.setName = "tester3"
list.add(test3)

Test test4 = new Test();
test4.setId = "t2"
test4.setName = "tester2"
list.add(test4)

Stream<Test> s1 = list.stream.filter(t -> t.getId.equals(specialId));
Stream<Test> s2 = list.stream.filter(t -> !t.getId.equals(specialId))
                    .sorted(Comparator.comparing(Test::getName));

Stream<Test> s = Stream.concat(s1, s2);

List<Test> result = s.collect(Collectors.toList());

I am getting the expected result. But I want use stream only once.
How can I sort it?

A: You could put the special ID treatment into the comparator. The two comparisons can be chained using thenComparing.

*

*First check if the ID ≠ special ID. Since false < true, this will bring the special ID before everything.

*Then sort by name.

Stream<Test> s = list.stream().sorted(
    Comparator.comparing((Test t) -> !t.getId().equals(specialId))
              .thenComparing(Test::getName)
);

A: you can do in one sorting.
public static void main(String[] args) {
    String specialId = "t2";

    List<Test> list = new ArrayList<>();

    Test test1 = new Test();
    test1.setId("t1");
    test1.setName("tester1");
    list.add(test1);

    Test test2 = new Test();
    test2.setId("t2");
    test2.setName("tester2");
    list.add(test2);

    Test test3 = new Test();
    test3.setId("t3");
    test3.setName("tester3");
    list.add(test3);

    Test test4 = new Test();
    test4.setId("t4");
    test4.setName("tester4");
    list.add(test4);

    List<Test> sorted = list
            .stream()
            .sorted((t1, t2) -> {
                if (t1.getId().equals(specialId)) {
                    return -1;
                }

                if (t2.getId().equals(specialId)) {
                    return 1;
                }

                return t1.getId().compareTo(t2.getId());
            })
            .collect(Collectors.toList());

    sorted.forEach(System.out::println);
}

static class Test {
    String id;
    String name;

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "Test{" +
                "id='" + id + '\'' +
                ", name='" + name + '\'' +
                '}';
    }
}

A: I think you are well aware that streams are lazily evaluated.
Stream<Test> s1 = list.stream.filter(t -> t.getId.equals(specialId));

You can take out the Predicate as you are using the negation in another place.
Predicate<Test> specialTestPred = t -> t.getId.equals(specialId);

Stream<Test> specialTestStream = list.stream.filter(specialTestPred);
Stream<Test> nonSpecialTestStream = list.stream.filter(specialTestPred.negate())
                    .sorted(Comparator.comparing(Test::getName));

List<Test> result = Stream.concat(specialTestStream , nonSpecialTestStream)
                          .collect(Collectors.toList());

Our client was out to dinner with his wife. He began driving home around 11:30 pm and was directed into the Pit after answering questions about drinking that night. He was charged with a OUI Second Offense.
We finally received the Roadblock documents – this is the policy and power giving the government the right to stop a person/car on the road for no reason.
It turns out that the language needed in order to ask questions was absent. After a three different hearings the motion was allowed.
The stop was not constitutional and everything from the initial stop was suppressed.
There were 19 people arrested at this Roadblock only four separate defendants joined in my motion all the rest plead out. When we file motions in these cases other lawyers begin to ask what we have for the sake of defending against the over reach of the government. We shared the knowledge.
Our client was so relieved once I showed him what the judge wrote on the side of the motion—no authority, no power and no reason for the support—ALLOWED.

Q: Proper Regex to get a value into a URL I am trying to get the "configure" value from the following https://example.com/estimate/unit/configure/76yc1d2b-31aa-4b5a-95af-8b0f93b01b00?sid=e9a9a541-9417-43c4-a4e9-746ttdd84e9o
With this regex  (?<=unit/)(.*)(?=\?)  but i got "configure/76yc1d2b-31aa-4b5a-95af-8b0f93b01b00" i would like get just "configure"
Someone can explain me the error, thanks

A: (?<=unit/)(.*)(?=\/)

Solves your problem. The trick was to look for the "closing" slash, while in yoursolution you were looking for '?' character

A: The regex matches everything from the beginning of your url to the end. If you replace .* with [^\/]* (match all but the front slash) then remove your ending group you should get what you want.

Professors to discuss new book, examine race through superheroes at Feb. 18 lecture
Misericordia University professors Allan W. Austin, Ph.D., and Patrick L. Hamilton, Ph.D., will discuss their new book, "All New, All Different? A History of Race and the American Superhero," during a Friends of the Mary Kintz Bevevino Library lecture and book signing on Tuesday, Feb. 18 from 5-7 p.m. in the Catherine Evans McGowan Room of the Mary Kintz Bevevino Library. Light refreshments will be available at the free program.
The 392-page book was published by University of Texas Press in November. It is an eye-opening exploration of the relationship between racial attitudes and the evolution of the superhero in America over the last 80 years – from Superman's debut in 1938 through the Civil Rights era to contemporary revisions of the well-known characters of today.
"'Our book enriches the understanding of the complex issues of racial representation in American popular culture,'' Drs. Austin and Hamilton explained. "Our work explores a topic that until now has only received more discrete examination.''
Dr. Austin is a professor of history and the author of two previous books. He published "Quaker Brotherhood: Interracial Activism and the American Friends Service Committee, 1917-1950'' (University of Illinois Press) in 2012, and "From Concentration Camp to Campus: Japanese American Students and World War II" (University of Illinois Press) in 2004. In addition, he served as co-editor of "Asian American History and Culture: An Encyclopedia" and "Space and Time: Essays on Visions of History in Science Fiction and Fantasy Television." He is a resident of Kingston.
Dr. Hamilton, an associate professor of English, is the author of "Of Space and Mind: Cognitive Mappings of Contemporary Chicano/a Fiction'' (University of Texas Press). He also has published on "Los Bros Hernandez," "The Walking Dead," and "Westworld." He is a resident of Kingston.
The Misericordia University professors frequently have team-taught the interdisciplinary course, Race and Graphic Narrative in the Postwar United States, at Misericordia University since 2009. It explores multiculturalism and other important societal issues addressed in comic strips, comic books, graphic novels and movies.
The next step in their educational collaboration brought them to their new book, which takes a multifaceted approach to exploring attitudes of race through popular culture – whether it is the characters made famous by Marvel Comics or DC Comics, or lesser known heroes as they also examine diverse characters and the messages contained within their actions and story lines.
In their book, the authors begin with World War II, examining early superhero stories with Asian villains and nonwhite sidekicks, before transitioning to the 1960s and 1970s and the rise of popular characters, such as Black Panther, Black Lightning, Luke Cage, Storm and others that reflected a cultural revolution, according to Drs. Austin and Hamilton.
"The book reveals how nonwhite superheroes remained grounded in outdated assumptions, even as racial reform began to take root'' the Misericordia University authors argue. "Multiculturalism encouraged further diversity with 1980s super teams and the new characters introduced in the 1990s by Milestone, a minority-run company, and others.''
The groundbreaking book concludes with a discussion of contemporary efforts by the industry to make both a profit and a positive impact on society.
The book also has received positive reviews, including one by Lan Dong, Ph.D., an English professor at the University of Illinois-Springfield. "'All New, All Different?' discusses not only mainstream superhero comics from Marvel and DC but also lesser-known texts over a long time span,'' Dr. Dong wrote. "In addition to examining African American superheroes, it also critically engages with Asian/Asian American, Native American and Latinx characters.
"Its comprehensive coverage will make a meaningful contribution to the growing field of comic studies,'' she concluded.
To read an excerpt of the book, please search the title online and select a national retailer. It is available for purchase in paperback and hardcover.
Due to limited seating, reservations for the lecture are suggested, but are not required. Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the lecture. For additional information or to make a reservation, please contact Susan Lazur at 570-674-6225 or at slazur@misericordia.edu.


I have several posts out here that I have started and never posted – so I'm taking the time to post them this morning.
In other news, it looks like Tropical Storm Hanna is heading for our warm sandy beaches. The last forecast I saw shows it coming ashore just north of the Grand Strand. Yesterday, it looked to be trackingbetween Georgetown and Myrtle Beach, but its been adjusted north. Past history kind of tells me that it will hit Wilmington or the Outer Banks of NC, but you can never be too comfortable. Work the past two days has been hectic, making contegency plans for our datacenters and trying to be as prepared for the worst as possible.
