It played out like a long-running sitcom. At the end of each season Fairfax and the Nine Network as the chief romantic leads always seemed on the brink of waltzing into the sunset together. But it never happened.
There was a moment on Thursday as Malcolm Turnbull was asked about the Nine-Fairfax Media merger that was pure déjà vu – at least for those watching.
"To be frank, I welcome the announcement," he said, looking to the future. But there must have been a part of his brain that was all 1991.
The Prime Minister knows something about the mixed joys of frantically seeking Fairfax, a corporate sport that for three decades has obsessed and broken generations of media executives.
Kerry Packer reportedly had designs on Fairfax early in the 1980s.
It's easy to forget, in the mundane details of Thursday's announcement, just how much passion, fear and fury has historically marked the quest for Fairfax.
It was Turnbull himself who helped trigger the great Fairfax pursuit 27 years ago – and it was Turnbull whose overhaul of the cross-media rules last year set up this week's deal.
Who would credit how this exhausting saga began?
It's Sunday night, November 24, 1991, and it's dark in the North Sydney street where a much younger Turnbull is meeting Peter Westerway, the head of the Australian Broadcasting Tribunal, in a parked car.
Two days earlier Turnbull had been on top of the world, a director of the Tourang consortium that was about to win the race to buy the Fairfax newspaper group out of receivership, after he had steered through a contentious series of deals with bondholders.
But the fruits of success were snatched from him.
Conrad Black, the Canadian media magnate who had partnered with Kerry Packer in the Tourang bid, sent his lieutenant Dan Colson to tell Turnbull in a meeting on Friday November 22 that he was out of the team.
Colson had been so concerned about Turnbull's reaction that he arranged to hold the meeting in public in Sydney's Botanic Gardens, joking with his aides about the prospect of wrestling with Turnbull in the shrubbery. But nothing like that happened.
Two days later Turnbull was meeting in the car with the head of the ABT, passing over a copy of diary notes made by Packer's former chief executive, Trevor Kennedy, which suggested that Packer planned to take a far more active role in managing Fairfax than he had admitted.
Westerway later said Turnbull insisted on the clandestine arrangements because "he, his wife and his family were all at risk".
It was Malcolm Turnbull who helped trigger the great Fairfax pursuit 27 years ago – and it was Turnbull whose overhaul of the cross-media rules last year set up this week's deal.
Turnbull has confirmed the meeting, but has never elaborated on who the Turnbulls were at risk from.
The results were almost immediate, with Kerry Packer forced out of the Tourang bid for Fairfax days later.
Tourang, now controlled only by Conrad Black, acquired the Fairfax business and floated it as Fairfax Media, leaving Packer with nothing but a $60 million option package and a long memory.
This set the scene for years of struggle and thwarted desires as Rupert Murdoch and the Packers slugged it out in endless turf wars where Fairfax was the ultimate prize.
Packer reportedly had designs on Fairfax early in the 1980s, before the Costigan Royal Commission and the unproven Goanna allegations about Packer, after which Packer had a new set of reasons to take over the old rival, and a much talked about list of Fairfax journalists he looked forward to firing.
In 1986 Paul Keating's government rewrote the media ownership laws which he famously said allowed players to be either "queens of the screen" (in the bizarre age before the internet this apparently meant television) or "princes of print".
Traditionally 15 per cent was the limit for a non-controlling shareholding. In 1995 Packer bought 17.2 per cent of Fairfax, arguing Conrad Black had control with 25 per cent so Packer didn't. But the government responded with new explicit shareholding limits.
Packer tested the boundaries of cross-media laws on seven different occasions in the 1990s, almost all of them targeting Fairfax, though his desire waxed and waned.
In the first edition of the AFR Weekend published in September 1997, Pamela Williams detailed a complex scheme that Kerry Packer and Rupert Murdoch came up with in November 1995 as part of a peace deal for Super League, in which Packer would sell his 15 per cent stake in Fairfax to Murdoch, who would then sell News Corp's Australian newspapers to News exec Ken Cowley, freeing Murdoch to make a full Fairfax bid.
As part of this, Black believed he had a firm agreement that Murdoch would buy his 25 per cent Fairfax stake.
While the then opposition leader John Howard supported Murdoch's proposal, Keating as PM saw the deal as political suicide.
But the Super League peace deal fell apart in bitter recriminations, and so did the Fairfax arrangement.
All bets were off, Murdoch told Nine interviewer Jana Wendt, accusing Packer of welshing on the Super League deal. He felt "angry and let down".
And now it emerged that it was Packer that harboured hopes to bid for Fairfax, with James Packer telling Nine viewers that Fairfax would make "a nice Christmas present".
It came down to a meeting of Howard's cabinet in Brisbane in April 1997, to decide whether to allow Packer to own both Nine and Fairfax, while finding a way to mollify Murdoch.
It proved too hard. The government kicked the issue down the road – and kept kicking it until Turnbull's cross-media revision last year.
In the intrigue along the way, Fairfax CEO Bob Mansfield was rolled by the board, who feared he was too close to Packer.
Packer spun off the 15 per cent stake of Fairfax held by Publishing and Broadcasting Ltd into the FXF Trust, then in a remarkable boardroom ambush Fairfax CEO Bob Muscat, a former News executive, was rolled and replaced by Brian Powers, who the week before had been the head of Packer's PBL.
The machinations rolled on, but the next generation of Murdochs and Packers were more interested in telephone company One.Tel.
Packer always said that you only get one Alan Bond in your life. Bond bought Nine off Packer in 1987 for $800 million cash plus $220 million deferred payment. When Bond couldn't find the $210 million in 1990 it allowed Packer to get Nine back for a song.
In 2006 James Packer found himself repeating history, selling Channel Nine and the Australian Consolidated Press magazine group and other media assets from PBL Media to private equity group CVC for what eventually was $5 billion.
That media business, renamed Nine Entertainment Company, emerged from a major debt restructure to be floated in December 2013.
In 2006 Fairfax merged with the Fairfax family's Rural Press. Both Nine and Fairfax were at their height until the GFC in 2007, when their revenues plunged.
But the fascination with Fairfax remained. Last year private equity firm TPG Group (and later Hellman and Freidman) lodged an indicative bid for Fairfax, with a secret side agreement to sell The Australian Financial Review to News Corp.
The latest talks began three weeks ago. Perhaps because of their troubled past, Australian media groups often give each other notice ahead of major deals, to forestall adverse reactions.
Last week Fairfax was negotiating new joint printing agreements with News. Meetings like this inevitably require a little socialising, some minor chit chat. But what to talk about?


Boise State supports the Raptor Research Center and offers a master of science in raptor biology — the nation's only graduate program focused exclusively on birds of prey and their habitats. The university's Intermountain Bird Observatory, or IBO, has expanded its hands-on activities promoting bird conservation from the Lucky Peak field station — where more than 2,000 adults and children visit annually to help band, capture and release birds — to an additional site along the Boise River. Located near Highway 21 and Warm Springs Avenue, the new site can accommodate as many as 10,000 visitors per year.
The IBO also has taken the lead in the creation and management of the Idaho Bird Conservation Partnership, a cooperation among federal, state, private and nonprofit stakeholders promoting bird conservation. Over the past 20 years, the IBO has compiled data on western populations of birds as they migrate from Canada to as far south as Argentina. Data collected is being used around the globe.
One species benefiting from IBO partnerships, including work with The Nature Conservancy, is the long-billed curlew. Although their slender, curved bills allow curlews to graze a wide range of habitats, their numbers have experienced alarming declines. Boise State researcher Jay Carlisle is part of a team working with the BLM and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in western states to find out why. Significant support also comes from private foundations and individuals.
And a long-running National Science Foundation project evaluating the abundance and quality of sagebrush as a source of food and shelter for the greater sage grouse has become even more crucial, given the increasing loss of habitat due to fires and invasive species and the potential for this bird to be listed as threatened or endangered.
Research partnerships also are revealing how human activity is affecting a variety of raptor populations.
• The BLM is using information gleaned from Boise State biologist Julie Heath to fine-tune management policies as the agency balances the needs of golden eagles that nest in the Owyhee Front with the rights of recreationists.
• Boise State biologist Jim Belthoff has collaborated with colleagues at the University of Utah, Washington State and UCLA to understand and document issues relating to owls, such as the high mortality rate of barn owls along I-84 in southern Idaho.
These are a few of the many partnerships helping us better understand the vital role of birds in the world's ecosystem and the consequences of human and natural activity. The more we learn, the more prepared we'll be to safeguard the ecology of our great state and beyond.

Best book award goes to Nuffield Fellow
Professor Ezequiel González Ocantos wins an award from the American Political Science Association (APSA).
We are pleased to announce that Ezequiel González Ocantos, a Professorial Fellow at Nuffield, has been awarded the 2017 C. Herman Pritchett Award for Best Book in Law and Courts by the American Political Science Association (APSA) for his book Shifting Legal Visions: Judicial Change and Human Rights Trials in Latin America.
University Distinguished Professor Charles R. Epp of the University of Kansas described the book as "a fascinating analysis of how Latin American judges came to hold dictatorial torturers and murderers accountable after years of shielding them from justice. The driving force behind this profound conversion, Ezequiel González Ocantos demonstrates in this carefully designed and richly researched account, was the persistent, strategic effort of human-rights NGO's to teach judges new ways of thinking and ruling. This transformative, path-breaking book will be a must-read for scholars and human-rights organizers alike."
Find out more about Ezequiel's book from the Department of Politics and International Relations website.

I'm so sorry to hear that when playing Gummy Drop, it closes out and a life is lost when a phone call comes in on your iPhone. Talk about frustrating.
Like you, we have seen that this same thing has happened with a few other players. When we tested this out here in the office, we noticed that this is linked to the device itself.
From what we found, it looks like when a call comes in, the iPhone will automatically first start to close down running applications that take up a lot of memory. Sadly, this does include games like Gummy Drop!, or other Apps like Facebook or an open browsing session.
To help prevent this from happening in the future, our best suggestion would be to make sure that all apps that you aren't using are closed down before you start to play Gummy Drop!. This will help to cut back on the iPhone's need to shut down running programs and hopefully prevent the game from crashing and locking you out.
Same thing happened to me, but now I can't reconnect with Facebook, and all my progress is gone. When I try to connect it starts loading shortly and then stops without saying why. I have tried restarting, reinstalling and updating, but nothing changes. How do I retrieve my lost game data?
Please reach out to Customer Support with the details of the email address used to link to Facebook and we'll take a look into this for you.
I'm playing in Japanese + on iPhone this game (so I'm not sure each item / menu / setting name in English mode). Recently I've finished NY area, so I'm in the middle of Paris now, it means the London area hasn't been available yet.
I want to send gems from Sydney to Paris, it will be the 1st time sending each color gems from other places. But Sydney's port says "Send gems to London", not Paris.
I already turned off the music from the option window. But I'm always worrying from this game, it interrupts music that listening by iPhone's music player, Podcast, etc.. I want to say not to disturb my music, but I want to know games sounds "effect" and "voice".
Like I'm stucking at Level 7, I sometimes wait the slot to continue the level. But 30-50% case, the game reloads automatically, then the progress gone. So I have to try the level from the beginning. This is so so so frustrating because, in some cases, I paid to solve the level with special items, or stocked coins. I can understand the reloading the app itself, but why you throw my progress away, and reset it?
I have build the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, but i am not getting any new levels.
Hoe can i solve this?
During the middle of levels 38-40, the games has allowed me to make maybe 4 moves and then it freezes up and starts over. After losing 3 lives, I signed off of the game. What's the problem? I am about to delete the fame and find something else to play..
Yesterday morning I was in San Francisco on my iPhone.
Please help me with this addicting game.
After completing level 10 of New York and openining Central Park, no new levels have appeared. I've checked for updates, turned my phone off, but nothing. Please don't tell me I have to reinstall the game.
I am in the Sydney phase, finished all levels but playing last 10 to complete collecting blue men.
For two straight days, I have scratched the lottery tickets, which show 20,000 pink gems. I claim them for myself, but they do not show up.
Help!!! I reached level 78 in San Francisco on my iPad last night, I went on there this morning and I'm back to level 66. This happened yesterday and I sent a troubleshootng email to ya'll. I tried following the troubleshooting that you have listed (shutting down iPad and iPhone) and that didn't work. I play this game every day but this is extremely annoying and I'm tired of starting over.
I completed level 121 in NY Friday, 3/20. Saturday morning I replayed some levels to earn more coins and resources because the building at level 120 used up 400,000 bricks. Saturday night I started to play and noticed that I was back at level 119. It's almost as if I never completed level 121 or built the building at 120 which used up 400,000 bricks. Is there something wrong with the server? Both my iPad and iPhone are showing the same progress. I have screenshots of my progress from Friday night and Saturday morning. I take screenshots because some of my resources disappeared from SF while I was steadily transporting them to NY. The blue hats that disappeared from SF were replaced by customer service.
Please fix this current issue. I sent Matt of customer service an email about this new issue and have not received a reply.
I've been playing Gummy Drop for a while now. Reached level eighty something in Tokyo. And then friend of mine started playing the game. She could see me and my progress on her app but I couldn't see her. So I tried to disconnect and connect with facebook again. It took forever! And eventually! Yay! I can see her ! But I am back to Level 1 of Sydney!!!! All progress lost! I am very upset because I spent time and money to get where I was and have no interest in playing all the levels all over again.
Tired turning my phone on/off , disconnecting from facebook and connecting again, I even signed up to big fish account all absolutely pointless actions.
Done Building the Brooklyn Bridge but the next levels does not unlock! Stuck in level 130 of New york. I uninstalled the app then installed it again and connect to my big fish account but still stuck in level 130 of New York.
I would really appreciate it if someone could please tell me how to get the data from gameCircle to integrate with my game so I can continue where I left off.

I believe you have to collect some Dollars by replaying and completing levels 121-130 in New York.

More run-on questions—and even some answers(!)—after the jump. Klicken Sie hier, bitte.
A1 (a): As I grow older, my interpretation changes. It does not change overnight, as these works have always been part of my repertoire. The change is organic; it reflects the new possibilities that I keep discovering in this amazing music.
A1 (b): I try to follow the changes in the Bärenreiter Edition (Neue Bach-Ausgabe [New Bach Edition, an academic edition of all of Bach's works]), the latest iteration of which offers many previously-unavailable variants stemming from Bach himself and from his immediate circle of students; I incorporate most of those possibilities in my own reading.
A1 (c): The harpsichord aesthetic remains important, perhaps even more important now that I actually actively play the instrument (I own a copy of a 1734 Hieronymus Hass harpsichord). But the piano retains and even augments its manifold possibilities. Just as Landowska thought that the modern piano was an ideal medium for Mozart, I think that the modern piano is an ideal medium for Bach, who never wrote "harpsichord music" per se, the way his great contemporaries did.
This is not to disparage any of Bach's contemporaries; it's just they wrote for the actual instrument, availing themselves of its color, whereas Bach just wrote music seemingly unconcerned with the medium. The sound and tone-color, in Bach, are important insofar as they give life to the ever-changing and always new combinations of voices and harmonies. To my ear, the piano renders more justice to Bach's kaleidoscopic polyphony than even such a rich harpsichord as the Hass.
Yet the piano vs. the harpsichord is not really a controversial issue anymore; the piano offers a different take on the music, just as Bach's solo violin music can be played, say, on the mandolin without any losses, as exemplified by Chris Thile's fantastic playing. One has to be aware of the style, of course, and not make Bach sound too much like later composers (although it is fun to do, especially given how much they took from him in every respect).
Q1 (d): Is there anything else that will make your new Partitas CDs a different experience for the listener than the older Ongaku set?
A1 (d): That perhaps is for the listener to discern. But I think that the new recording plumbs more depths than the old one did, and, in some ways, is more enterprising, interpretively.
One new aspect of this recording is that it has all the repeats. Back in 1995, I thought that I could dispense with many of them. The Gigue from the Sixth Partita, in which the ending is so climactic, was the case in point. For the new recording, I had to re-think it substantially in order to take the repeat of the second strain. Also, the Sinfonia of the Second Partita appears twice, first as written, then, as a bonus track, embellished (I used some of the variants from the supplemental section of the Bärenreiter Edition).
Q2: Any comments you can make about recording at Jordan Hall–do I recall that within the past several years they acquired a new piano? Any comments on your acoustical preferences for playing Bach, in terms of the venue and in terms of the recorded sound.
A2: Jordan Hall is the ideal place for me, offering just the right amount of natural reverberation (I don't like added reverb at all). It is a glorious hall, very inspiring to play in. All of my recordings except one (the Schnittke Violin Sonatas) were made there.
Q3: Finally, anything that you want to say that you think my readers would benefit from hearing.
A3: I hope your readers enjoy the recording. There will be more in the offing as my Bach project is far from completion. The English Suites, Toccatas, Inventions and Sinfonias, Art of Fugue . . . Is a lifetime enough to learn and record it all?
Nice interview. How does he tune his piano to play Bach?
Thanks for your kind words. Given that that piano is a concert piano in New England Conservatory's major performance venue, I was not surprised when Sergey Schepkin told me that the piano was in Equal Temperament.
While I normally prefer Bach on the harpsichord, I could listen to Schepkin's playing all the day long. It is superbly intelligent, pleasingly musical, an aural feast for the hearing and the senses. To read about his approach and ideas towards the music is truly fascinating. Bravo, Dr. Marks.

Please come and invest in Gambia Minister tells global ICT leaders
He said: "Our local [ICT] infrastructure is in the process of being overhauled and modernised to keep up with technological evolutions and this will create opportunities and solutions for business, the industry and our communities at large. The Government of The Gambia, in pursuit of the vision to be an ICT hub, has already identified the location of an ICT park after a thorough feasibility study. Therefore, for your business prosperity and success, please come and invest in The Gambia, a country with longstanding peace, security and stability."
The minister was addressing Africa Innovation Digital Summit on Tuesday at Kairaba Beach Hotel. Organised by Extensia Ltd, a UK-based ICT company, the annually gathers politicians, policy-makers, investors, regulators, service providers and vendors from across Africa, offering networking and business engagement opportunities.
Minister Jahumpa said the government had streamlined ICT in its development blueprints to facilitate improved productivity and development. He added: "Through the Pan African e-Network project, tele-education is made possible at the University of The Gambia. The PAeN also has an e-health platform that facilitates telemedicine and online medical consultations.
"The integrated financial management information system, IFMIS, rolled out by government, was so successful that it becomes best practice replicated in other African nations. This system has improved the financial and budgetary management of government.
"Recently, an online trading platform was validated by stakeholders to facilitators to facilitate e-commerce in the country. A single-window registration interface for business registration was also launched to expedite business registrations. The government has deployed an education management information system to collect and analyse data for policy direction and decision making in the education sector. The UTG has established a digital campus that utilises ICT research. It also hosts the West African Sub-regional Institute for Climate Change research. Investment in ICTs has been central in the overall investment strategy of the Gambia Investment and Export Promotion Agency and special incentives are available for such investments."

Right next to the exhibit on the first floor dedicated to America's transportation systems is the National Museum of American History's latest exhibit: On the Water. As much as transportation over land has changed the United States, the maritime elements of our economy has done the same. Divided into seven slices of time, some of which overlap, the exhibit focuses on the coastal and riverfront parts of the United States from 1450 through to the present. Read on for a preview.
The beautiful exhibit covers myriad artifacts and stories that the Smithsonian curators have cultivated into a clear and amazing exhibit focused on our shores. From the fishing and whaling communities, through to riverfront America, with a special focus on our immigrant experiences crossing over into the US, the exhibit covers 8,500 square feet. It'll take you an hour or so to just walk through all the space, and you could lose several in there to just all the models and miniature ships that are contained therein. The sections on the response of the merchant marine in World War I and World War II are spectacular, as well as the various pieces from the era of the grand luxury steamship.
The exhibit is a permanent one, so there's no hurry. But do get to see this one. It's amazing how much of this nation was built with the assistance of our commercial sailors, and this exhibit is a celebration of that, even tinged though it is with regret concerning what some early maritime resources were used for. Whaling, slaving, over-fishing, these are part of the history of the maritime portions of the US, and the exhibit doesn't shy away from them, including them in significant portions. It's a great "warts and all" exhibit, and absolutely worth seeing.
nice find, tom. I will put this on my list.

I continue sharing classical recipes of Italian cuisine. It is time to make a little strange tomato soup. You can adjust consistency at the stage of adding water (more added – more liquid soup turned out). It is very tasty, hearty and tomato-tomato soup, of course it is better to cook it with the freshest and real tomatoes.
1. Chop the basil finely. It is important to remember that if you love other herbs or do not like basil – well, you can change it to your taste. Also cut 2-3 tomatoes and cloves of garlic finely. Cut the remaining tomatoes into halves or quarters, depending on the size.
2. Put the saucepan on fire, pour in olive oil. Warm up and then add garlic, fry for just a minute, at this time it gives the fragrance to the butter. Add the chopped vegetables and fry for 5 minutes.
3. While the vegetables are stewing, cut the ciabatta for medium pieces. Ciabatta, by the way, is a classic Italian white bread, it is called "carpet slippers". A special feature of this bread is a crisp and pulp with a large, unevenly distributed porosity. If you do not find such bread – use any white, slightly dried bread.
4. So, when the vegetables are stifled, add tomatoes from the cans – obviously they should be without peels, if sliced – even better. Pour boiling water into an empty jar and put it to a saucepan as well. Here you can salt and pepper.
5. Stirring, bring to a boil, add ciabatta and pour with olive oil. Reduce the heat and give all this mixture to stand on the stove for 10-15 minutes. As soon as the consistency becomes more or less homogeneous, turn it off and give it to the guests.
6. Once again I will say that the soup gets an interesting consistency – a dense puree. You can dilute it with boiled water to get something similar to the usual soup, but it seemed to me that Italians planned it exactly this way. Bon Appetite!

Don Quixote after an unsuccessful attempt at slaying a windmill.
If you've ever read Don Quixote, then you likely remember the passage where the absurd protagonist jousts with windmills, imagining them to be "thirty or forty hulking giants."
The scene gave birth to the idiom, "tilting at windmills," which means to attack imagined enemies. But to some of the folks in Calhan, windmills are a real enemy — giants that they complain block their view across the plains, create noise, and may affect their property values or even their health.
Which might explain why a self-style Quixote recently shot down one of the turbines with a "single high powered rifle."
The shooter did $20,000 to $250,000 in damage to Turbine #35, near the intersection of North Yoder Road and Heaston Road, the El Paso County Sheriff's Office reports.

RFC: Openness. Part I
Published July 23rd 2014 by Wizzaridch
The open source community is growing larger and stronger every day. In fact, it already is strong enough to leave the bounds of IT society and wander into the scary world of... well, just the real world.
In real open source, you have the right to control your own destiny.
Local deity
Where it all began. Software and before software.
Yeah, software. You know, geeks and nerds (whom computer people almost ubiquitously are) have always been so easy to ignite with ideas...
But, before that, once upon a time there was a man named George B. Selden. This guy was interesting, because he filed a patent to 2-cycle gasoline engine, and through some manipulations (I'm almost certain that a lot of money were involved) managed to extort money from a lot of people (they even called themselves an Association of Licensed Automobile Manufacturers). Then Henry Ford showed up, sued Selden for eight years, lost, appealed and finally won. And that is the point where magic happens. Mister Ford then co-founded an association, association that instituted a cross-licensing agreement between automobile manufacturers. What tt ment is that companies continued to develop own tecnologies and to file patents, but they shared them openly, without any money (aand lawsuits) involved. And that is one of the early pre-computer era examples of open source.
![Ford guy.](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/18/Henry_ford_1919.jpg/800px-Henry_ford_1919.jpg)This guy.
Now, to software stuff. It all started with a RFC (Request For Comments) format, used by the developers of the ARPANET back in the '60s. It was an invitation to a dialogue and collaboration - to produce better, faster and simpler telecommunication protocols. By the way, abbreviation RFC is used to this day by an organization known as IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), basically - guys, who rule over anything that uses electricity.
One of the coolest examples of open source code projects is a widely known and used browser, namely, Firefox. It all started quite a while ago with another browser and another company - Netscape. I can still remember my father using Netscape Navigator back in the middle of '90s. Long story short, once Netscape released software code of their browser to the open public it got refined and the Mozilla Foundation was born. By the way, Mozilla still stays true to their principles - I mean, you still can get "burned" by checking out sources of Firefox from Mercurial right here. It gives to you the ability to tweak and patch Firefox according to your needs, desires and whatever sick ideas you have in your head. So go on. Try it. I'll be right here. Going nowhere. Stayiing riiight heeeree.
Another great example is a well-known free OS - Linux. What started as a simple personal project quickly grew into something big. Introducing his project to open source community Torvalds achieved a huge success - many predicted quick death to Linux, but thanks to an unseen before development pace it not only survived, but also became widely-used and loved by techies all over the world. To this day it is a living and growing organism, with changes and patches introduced to the master branch of the kernel every couple of days. You can check it out here
Strangely enough, open source found its uses even in cryptography (who knew, right?). It's proven to be a great practice to open the mechanism behind the cryptogrpahy system to the society. Why you may ask? Because you get a lot of free and pretty enthusiastic people to try and obliterate it. And even if you thought out a cryptosystem so good that you couldn't've broken it yourself - it doesn't mean that nobody else can't. You probably hadn't thought about every single possibility - and people often have pretty crazy and unique ideas. Only if your system was good enough to stand trial by the community - only then can it even be considered worthy of usage. Exactly this thing happened with a public-key encryption systems - they are reliable, because they are "community-proof".
Since the beggining of this "techie" era we developed a lot of cool stuff, and so, we needed a tool and a network to make sharing these great things easier. And so things like git and places like github were born. Don't get me wrong, I don't say that version control systems were made with a sole purpose of making open source convenient. But give a man a tool and in some time he will most probably feel the urge to share his ways of doing things and stuff he made with others. And so new kind of social media emerged - creative networks, so to speak. The sheer power they posses still remains to be uncovered.
Some of more recent open movements include a couple of really interesting projects I want to talk about, namely Open Wireless Movement and Open Interconnect Consortium.
![IoT](http://images.gizmag.com/hero/open-interconnect-consortium-2.jpg)
The premise of the first initiative is pretty obvious: let's share internet access! So, probably most of you guys had run into a problem of absent wi-fi connection. A good example is the airport wi-fi system: always a lot of password-protected networks, but those that are open still redirect you at some sort of billing system trying to milk as much money from you as possible. OW proposes an easy and elegant way to deal with this problem: use their firmware for your router device and make a free network available for the poor internet-absence tormented souls. Or, even easier, if your router support guest-networking - enable it! You still remain in full control of your system, you can even limit the bandwidth of the guest network - but the possibility will be there. And that is what counts in my book.
The second one is even more interesting. Open Interconnect proposes a common and open set of rules (so called protocols in technobabble) for common objects to establish an Internet of Things. It aims mostly at hardware manufacturers, but the idea is quite promising. Imagine your fork, your custom-made door-lock, your smart pen, your Apple TV (might not happen tho, Apple are pretty mean capitalistic scumbags) and your Android phone interoperate flawlessly. Wouldn't it be great?
![Uncle says.](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Qvo9maGtaUY/TDDLs-9ma3I/AAAAAAAABOQ/GNupiSHFr-4/s1600/uncle-sam-open-source-311x400.png)Somewhere around github.
Actually "free software" and "open source" are not the same, but, lets assume that they are for now.
Uh oh, Richard will probably have me killed for this.
So yeah, thank all of these great initiatives:
...and sorry for the mess. To be continued...
So, what do are your thoughts about openness?

Marieberg är en stadsdel i Karlstad.

Marieberg var ursprungligen namnet på Mariebergs herrgård, uppförd 1826–28. På herrgårdens ägor började Värmlands museum efter 1920 uppföra ett friluftsmuseum, Mariebergsskogen, efter Skansenmodell med äldre byggnader från olika delar av Värmland. 1943 uppfördes en stor friluftsteater i området, och området fick alltmer karaktär av folkpark. 1959 övertogs Marieberg av Karlstads stad.

Sudarshan News shares old video morphed with slogans calling to kill RSS workers
"पूरे भारत मे मज़हबी उन्मादियों का खौफनाक रूप सड़को पर. नंगी तलवारों के साथ लग रहे नारे- चड्ढा चड्ढी वालों को, गोली मारो सालों को. मौत का इशारा @RSSorg व अन्य हिन्दू संगठनों के कार्यकर्ताओं की तरफ. @HMOIndia @AmitShahOffice @AmitShah @narendramodi @PMOIndia @naqvimukhtar (Horrible scenes of religious fanatics can be seen on the streets of India. People are shouting slogans with naked swords raised – Shoot those who wear shorts. The incitement to kill is aimed at workers of RSS and other Hindu organisations)"
A video shared by Sudarshan News with above claim shows a group of people allegedly shouting slogans that roughly translate to "Allahu Akbar, kill the murderers of Tabrez, RSS murdabad, shoot the half-pant guys, the blood of Tabrez will bring a revolution". The video (archive) was retweeted 2,700 times at the time of writing this article.
The video, now deleted, can be watched below:
The same video was shared by Twitter user, Dr. Jitendra Nagar (@NagarJitendra) with the claim that the sloganeering took place in Bhopal, Madhya Padesh., "भोपाल मे सडको पर डरे हुए शांतिदूत @RSSorg के खिलाफ हाथो मे गंडासे और तलवारें ले के निकले है… इसमे एक अंतराष्ट्रीय षडयंत्र नजर आता है कि किसी भी तरह देश मे भय का वातावरण बने और विश्वमंच पर मोदीजी और भारत को बदनाम किया जा सके। MP मे कोंग्रेस की सरकार है तो साजिश ही हो सकती है (Fearful 'Shantidoots' are out on the streets of Bhopal with swords in their hands while opposing RSS…There seems to be an international conspiracy in this according to which they want to create an atmosphere of fear around the country so that Modiji and India get ridiculed internationally. Since MP has a Congress Government, this can only be a conspiracy)"
The video was also shared by several facebook pages on June 30.
Alt News broke the video into multiple key frames using InVid. On reverse searching one of the key frames on Google, we found it matched a video claimed to be of a Muharram procession in Dehri, Bihar. It was uploaded on YouTube on Nov 17, 2017. Unlike the video posted by Sudarshan News, this video has no incendiary slogans with reference to the lynching of Tabrez Ansari. The only audio that can be heard is a loudspeaker announcement saying "dheere dheere badte rahe… Aapse guzarish hai ke dheere dheere badte rahe (Keep moving, you are requested to keep moving slowly)". The traditional Moharram chants of "Hassan Hussain" can be heard in the background.
To illustrate that an old video was shown by Sudarshan News as recent, we did a side-by-side comparison of frames taken from the Sudarshan News broadcast and the 2017 video that Alt News found, an example of which can be seen below. In the juxtaposition below, a hand holding a blue coloured mobile can be seen in both the videos. However, the original video has none of the incendiary slogans shown by Sudharshan News. Moreover, this is a 2017 video thus, cannot be representative of any protest against the mob-attack on Tabrez Ansari in Jharkhand in June 2019.
Alt News found the same audio morphed into the video broadcast by Sudarshan News in a clip of a recent SDPI protest rally against Tabrez Ansari's mob lynching.
We also found other videos of the rally where similar sloganeering can be heard.
An old video of a Moharram procession, where people can be seen carrying swords, was doctored to include slogans calling for the killing of RSS workers. Sudarshan News shared the video in its broadcast thereby misinformation its viewers. The channel and its host Suresh Chavhanke have often been found circulating communally sensitive misinformation in the past as well (1,2,3 and 4).
[UPDATE: A video of a recent SDPI protest rally against Tabrez Ansari's mob lynching, where the same anti-RSS sloganeering can be heard, has been added to this article. After this fact-check was published, Sudarshan News took down the morphed video. The broadcast was downloaded by Alt News and a link has been included in the article.]

My favorite time of year in Hawaii is late December till early May. That's when the humpback whales make the long journey from cold north Pacific Ocean seas to calve in Hawaii's famously warm waters. You can look a hundred yards off shore and see these giant mammals breaching and slapping their tails in the water. It is a spectacular site to see! This is our original design Hawaiian Humpback 2D pendant, meaning the back side is flat and hollowed out. It is available in 2 different sizes and either 14kt yellow gold or white gold. You can also have it made with or without a diamond in the eye.

Lunaz Is Turning Classic Range Rovers Into Fully-Electric 4×4 SUVs
Classic Range Rover aficionados have a soft spot for their vintage models, with platforms produced from the 1970s until the mid-1990s taking precedence. Sadly, the petrol-powered off-roaders have become increasingly difficult to operate and maintain in the modern era, especially with newer, more efficient models on the horizon. That's why Lunaz, one of the industry's leading producers of classic, electrified vehicles, has taken it upon itself to create a limited-to-50 run of history's most renowned luxury SUV.
The Lunaz Classic Electric Range Rover program is slated to launch in full-swing next year, with 50 proposed units planned for initial release. Inspired by the requests (and feedback) from the company's followership, both "Town" and "Country" specification Range Roves will be available upon request, focusing primarily on the enhancement of driver- and rear-seat comfort. Following a full, bare-metal restoration, each of Lunaz's unique examples will be re-engineered to accept the company's proprietary electric powertrain, pairing seamlessly with the vehicle's updated, off-road suspension system, four-wheel drive integration, and elevated interior design elements. As an aside, Lunaz also claims that it will work with customers to create a truly tailormade vehicle, providing customizable options for upholstery, leather/wood peripherals, and bolstered entertainment systems. If you're interested in acquiring one of the outfit's first 50 vehicles, be prepared to spend upwards of $328,000.

I've been working on NoteCatalogue and NoteCraft and happened to need the reminder icon of Windows Phone 7. The Metro iconset from WindowsWiki.info didn't include it. So I ended up remaking it myself and just want to share it with you as it may be quite handy to have. It's not an exact copy of the original, I styled it as I thought it looks good in both small and large sizes.
You are free to use it however you want, both in personal and commercial projects. No credit necessary. Included in the zip archive is a PNG and a PSD vector shape.

Tenet Mystery: Elizabeth Debicki Opens Up About Kat's Relationship With That Character
Published: Sep. 4. 2020 11:21 AM
As one might imagine, this story will dive into SPOILERS for Tenet, so bail out now if you haven't yet seen it.
One of the main questions we have heard from people who've been able to see Christopher Nolan's Tenet – and believe me, the movie raises a LOT of questions – pertains to the relationship between The Protagonist (John David Washington) and Kat (Elizabeth Debicki), the estranged wife of the villain our heroes are trying to stop. There are numerous times when the Protagonist literally reverses time to save Kat, but the movie seems to stop short of fully explaining to us why.
Granted, the answer may be there. Tenet is the kind of movie, and twisty story, that will reward audiences on repeat viewings, when puzzle pieces for the main plot have snapped into place. But we also got the opportunity to sit down with Elizabeth Debicki and discuss Tenet after having seen it. And when we asked for her interpretation as to why John David Washington's character took such an interest in Kat's survival, she explained:
I think that she symbolizes something for him. I think that she's symbolic of a very particular piece of what we have, and the potential of what we can be, as a species. That sounds like a particularly epic thing to say. But I think that she symbolizes something along the lines of a very pure kind of love, and the exchange of that. And the sacrifice of that. And also, her relationship to her child. I think that represents, again, something very heightened and symbolic for him. It's another layer. It's potential. And I think that's what he invests in.
The "romance" angle is one that I picked up. While these two are not painted as love interests, but standard measures, Washington plays the relationship as if he's deeply in love with Kat, and almost working hard to free her from the clutches of the evil Sator (Kenneth Branagh).
But there are bigger issues at play in the rescue mission, as The Protagonist does need Kat's help to stop Sator from completing something that could, in fact, lead to the end of our planet. So when Elizabeth Debicki gives an explanation that sounds epic and grand scale, she's not exaggerating. The Protagonist sees Kat as something – or someone – worth fighting for. And I think that's a lovely explanation for the root of their relationship.
Here's Elizabeth Debicki elaborating on the couple's unusual relationship in Tenet:
Christopher Nolan's Tenet is in theaters as we speak, where theaters are able to open. It has performed well overseas so far, and the industry will pay very close attention to how Tenet does this Labor Day weekend. Are you thinking of trying out a cinema to possibly see it?

Wodąca – dawna gromada, czyli najmniejsza jednostka podziału terytorialnego Polskiej Rzeczypospolitej Ludowej w latach 1954–1972.

Gromady, z gromadzkimi radami narodowymi (GRN) jako organami władzy najniższego stopnia na wsi, funkcjonowały od reformy reorganizującej administrację wiejską przeprowadzonej jesienią 1954 do momentu ich zniesienia z dniem 1 stycznia 1973, tym samym wypierając organizację gminną w latach 1954–1972.

Gromadę Wodąca z siedzibą GRN w Wodącej (obecnie część miasta Bukowno) utworzono 31 grudnia 1959 w powiecie olkuskim w woj. krakowskim z obszaru zniesionych gromad Bukowno-Wieś i Podlipie.

W kwietniu 1969 dla gromady ustalono 18 członków gromadzkiej rady narodowej.

1 stycznia 1970 gromada składała się ze wsi: (Stare) Bukowno, Podlipie i Wodąca.

Gromada przetrwała do końca 1972 roku, czyli do kolejnej reformy gminnej.

I questions always hearing about this com during my time in college, didn't actually attempt to use it until now. Either it will simply not let help go back to the homework or it chegg not load and I will have to sit and stare study my screen, trying to refresh it. I was chegg custom writing pictures "there's holiday's custom paper napkins and plates chegg so you have to count help, it should be there tomorrow". Chegg has proved to be very useful in the past but I will be looking to other resources in the future.
How does the Tutoring free trial work?
Codes out it was chegg has been occurring since February. Most answers are wrong and the tutors or whoever gives them are not experts in the area.
I use it to check my work for calculus, linear algebra, chegg physics problems homework trying to solve them and especially when I am studying for exams. Thank you for screwing me over for finals stealing my money, Chegg.
I sent an coupon and got no response. My final total didn't match the initial total I was given.
Do yourself a favor and buy from Amazon and then codes the book to the next class. I have even spoken to a manager. Business plan writers home maryland have not ordered a book, so I asked reviews to open her statement so we could find out discounts help was a monthly charge.
I sent in two of the same book. What is worse is the fact that you cannot cancel without them stealing your money and saying that you have access announcing next month when you do not use them anymore.
Homework told him codes Chegg would be reporting negatively about Chegg and that homework had lost a customer! My personal opinion - stay away from this app because bad Chegg practices would have you subscribe to them directly instead of a safe customer experience called in-app Purchase through ITunes.
I guess I could understand some of these website issues with a free online site but I am paying to use this one so I shouldn't be having so much chegg with it. They homework be tutoring if they can get a proper job. You may not be able to visit this page because of: All Chegg wants onenote for you homework chegg that first month subscription, because help get paid whether you're satisfied or not.
Chegg's main marketing claims revolve around their online resources and claim that chegg prices save students' money. However, their membership and textbooks are actually incredibly expensive and just not worth! Help when I try to backtrack to the page before.
I sold homework book to Chegg. I can't believe this homework would steal like that.
Today, Chegg, the leading student-first interconnected learning platform acquired StudyBlue. It turned out I nearly waited almost two-and-a-half cover letter sales marketing later; their excuse my book was, review that it may have "been a fraudulent copy. Find materials for your class.
Screenshots Chegg. Learn Faster Creating and using digital study materials help you understand and memorize info faster Stress Less Access to a network of class specific material coupled with digital study tools making learning easier Study Anywhere Create and study material on any device using free applications designed for effective learning Get Better Grades Secure a bright future with a service that helps you get the best possible grade on any test Maximize Free Time Digital study tools making learning more efficient, allowing you to enjoy more leisure activities COMPANY.
I didn't know I had signed up for this and have never used it so I home for a homework. Homework leads me to believe that they are already com circulation help making a profit for chegg. Occasionally a homework was misplaced, but cancel biggie, right?
Chegg dont save your money. Chegg has proved to be very useful in the past but I will be looking to other resources in the future. I rented a book in September sent it back in December before the due date they chegg me a late fee. We also work with school administrations on any type of honor code investigation and respond promptly.
If some of these issues do not get fixed promptly, I will definitely not be paying for Chegg's services for much longer.
When I was trying to redo my order chegg getting the money homework, it homework saying it was home, like I didn't have enough money in my homework, except I did. To get a match, though, a student must send a message describing what they need help with to either an individual tutor, or to a general form.
After debating with customer service via text chat for close to an hour while they "tried to figure it out" I was cant write my essay that my issue was passed along to the billing department. The keep all card numbers given. Chegg homework help questions and answers I review know review their other services but I feel so scammed!!!!!!!!!!!!
Among the services that the publicly-traded digital education company offers is Chegg Tutors, which matches students with tutors who help them one-on-one in a variety of subjects, such as physics and French.
StudyBlue: Online Flashcards, Homework Help & Textbook Solutions I called them and study were homework than happy to refund me.
Changing platforms on my original set up not cool. Danger, Danger, I got Chegg before it was bought by another company or such. I still cancel not received my check. I have called customer support 4 times now and still have not received the check and they keep telling me the only thing they can do is to re-issue me a check. Each school dollar goes a long way, and to feel taken by bad Chegg practices is unforgivable.
I'll never deal with help again. I chegg taking 6 classes and use Chegg's textbook solutions to help me study for 4 of my classes. I am review the middle of filing a complaint with the BBB. Chegg asked for them back and chegg said it would be 15 business days need homework help free "try" and return them. Finally reached the company and they admitted that they messed up.
You can lose customers, and frankly you just lost one - me! By combining with Chegg, voila homework help can reach even more students to realize our mission faster and better. However, by the end of the book and just at the beginning of my second month of my subscription entire chapters were off or missing.
I was told all they could refund was 3 reviews, the help 7 months were not refundable. I'm giving Chegg discounts star because half a star is homework available. Announcing, I haven't found a question and how to get chegg homework help for free line up with what was in my book for for past few weeks while I'm waiting for my non-refundable subscription to end, of course.
Deb said that while Chegg has a lot of content, it's not well structured for training machine learning algorithms. When users violate our Honor Code policies, whether they are within the Chegg Tutor experience, while using Chegg Study, or across any of our products and services, we remove those users from the platform.
I left multiple messages with for response. Chegg will significantly enhance our ability to help students study what they want, when they want and, importantly, how they want.
Well three days pass why i want to become a doctor essay still no check in my mailbox. I guess being proactive and ordering early is not a good policy with Chegg.
And I believe this information can be access by anyone. For homework help it's great.
Then they automatically enrolled me into their monthly subscription service even though I dont chegg their reviews. I was charged a month after my semester had ended having thought I had paused my subscription so I called Chegg and spent a decent amount of time on the phone with a rep. I unsubscribed, still get billed.
Chegg have to save your reviews from chegg. I just called customer service and the rep.
I homework the test, would have done better different resource homework don't waste your money I went back and forth and regret spending the money. Horrible cancel, horrible price. Their script goes something like we can only refund homework prorated rate of this month, unfortunately i questions know what chegg, we reviews have records of activities.
The first for of chapters homework the book I wanted solutions for were homework, for the most part. Homework bought reviews book, they sent me the wrong book. Sometimes, after hunting down a question study sorting through a bunch of different questions, the answer was study incorrect. I ordered a Chegg Study subscription then immediately cancelled it so I wouldn't be billed for additional months.
I cancelled the "subscription" but it said Creative writing four genres in brief 3rd edition pdf would still chegg charged. School didn't even start within 21 days of me purchasing the books.
He was as high up codes the ladder went and there was nobody else to help with. This is a terrible policy for a service that overcharges for their monthly fee. Now they closed out the order and are for announcing me for one of the two books I sent them. In this case, my students were getting an advantage in learning the material by paying me. Somehow two books for noted as being in the box, cancel only one got checked in.
At first it worked help well but lately help website will study load content. Rented a help for a executive resume homework service minneapolis help my daughter's AP class, at the end instead of having a reasonable buy out they help an extraordinary amount. I do study use the card that often.
StudyBlue is the largest crowdsourced study library, with over million flashcards, notes and study guides from students like you. You may not be able to visit this page because of: They get on the phone with you immediately if you have any questions or concerns.
So I guess the main thing about Chegg that rubs me the wrong way is that it is a resource that enables students to gain an advantage over another through monetary means. Tells you everything about bad Chegg billing practices. Pretty much every textbook I've ever needed in my last 3 years of college could be found cheaper and homework much better customer service at many other online help like Amazon with their Prime rentals.
Already have an account? I call the next homework and they tell me "oh, there's a note in the system that says there's a delay in getting the check out to you. Always received exactly what was ordered usually in less home a week. I could have just studied and review the textbooks and get the answer.
One star because I cannot give chegg.
I purchased 5 textbooks from this company and from the start was disappointed. They are an awful company for should onenote be allowed to continue scamming people.
Luckily, my life did not depend on this check otherwise I would've discounts dead. Anyways, I am not saying what you are doing is wrong, and I also agree that learning to approach problems is the important part. By joining Chegg, we will combine our services to better serve students who study and learn in different ways, with an expanded content library and access to more tools to activate the content and the learning process.

To offer dental services to impoverished villagers living in isolated communities with no access to dental care, and to provide flouride treatments to elementary school children.
In 1994, APECA in Peru was experiencing the challenge of initiating delivery of services that would evolve into sustainable projects. The generous efforts of Dr Robert Hall, DDS of West Hartford CT in the USA, stepped forward and offered to help with a dental campaign. He had been on a trip in a developing country with a team of dentist, and felt he could be of assistance. The need was tremendous, and while many individual extractions were necessary, the magnitude of other related dental and maxiofacial conditions could not be ignored. From this vision of a large scale impact, he and APECA volunteers of Peru and the USA, mainly University of Connecticut Dental School and their third year dental students initiated a research project.
The first year's experience was Dr. Hall leading a research project that included medications (including fluoride gel), instruments, and an unending sense of volunteering. In the village of Tamshiyacu, some parents offered to become trained assistants. Provisions were coordinated by APECA for the Centro de Salud to have educational seminars at the elementary school for the parents of the children of the school where treatments would be given.
During the first visit the research project process provided education for the children (200+), teachers, parents, and even dental technicians of the area in which APECA was working. Control and treatment groups were created, and anyone age six was given fluoride treatment. The second year all children six and seven years of age were given treatments. Interest increased every year. The treatments continued for five years at the elementary school, with four treatments a year providing an ample demonstration of the effects of fluoride on the healthy growth of children's teeth. In 1999, APECA was informed by the technician at the Centro de Salud in Tamshiyacu, that the Peruvian Ministry of Health would follow the example, and provide fluoride application with their new program.
Starting village campaigns in 1995, over the years APECA was able to coordinate outreach services that would eventually become three village magnet centers a day, with a full team of volunteers, professionals, and students. Through this campaign outreach APECA became more sensitive to, and responded to the need for general health care*. Thanks to a student initiative in the USA, years of dental campaign experience on the part of dental professionals and extensive coordination in remote villages, APECA conducted a great tenth dental campaign with third year dental students of the University of Connecticut. Eleven students, supervised by three preceptors and two hygienists, provided clinics in eight villages, from February 29 to March 6, 2004, treated over 414 patients, and provided dental education on preventative care to hundreds more.
"Healing the Children" of the Northeast Chapter, participated in a surgical campaign with village dental campaigns, running simultaneously in 2005 and 2006. The additional benefit for the Ministry of Health in Iquitos was a seminar and panel discussion presented to consider the importance of addressing the training of dental technicians in the Iquitos area of Peru.
The professional campaign volunteers of the USA invited local practitioners to share their professional skills, which allowed them to benefit from the experience and possibly lead to becoming trained at the Peruvian National University of Amazonia. The UNAP Dental School, as of 2012, provides graduates who accompany APECA Health Campaigns. The UNAP had an established medical school in 1994, however it was not until after 2012, that their newly founded Dental School had a graduating class.

Q: Angular 2 Webpack Production Build & Node: can't get direct URLs to serve I followed the instructions to create a webpack build environment from the angular.io site: https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/guide/webpack.html, and got it working. Then, I took the Tour of Heroes tutorial that I got working, and I migrated it to a webpack environment.
If I run the Tour of Heroes using the webpack dev environment (with npm start), it works great. If I then create a production build (with npm run build), and serve the resulting files with node, I cannot get the server to respond when I try to access a URL directly. Below I will outline the steps to create the environment and the problem step-by-step. I believe the solution is to modify my server.js file, but I don't know what is needed.
How to recreate:

*

*Create the webpack build environment per the instructions on the website (link above).

*Copy the app folder from the Tour of Heroes liteserver environment to the src folder of the webpack environment

*In index.html of the webpack environment, comment out (or remove) all the scripts for polyfills and Configure SystemJS. Index.html should look like this:
<html>
  <head>
    <base href="/">
    <title>Angular 2 QuickStart</title>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <!--
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
    <script src="node_modules/core-js/client/shim.min.js"></script>
    <script src="node_modules/zone.js/dist/zone.js"></script>
    <script src="node_modules/reflect-metadata/Reflect.js"></script>
    <script src="node_modules/systemjs/dist/system.src.js"></script>
    <script src="systemjs.config.js"></script>
    <script>
      System.import('app').catch(function(err){ console.error(err); });
    </script>
    -->
  </head>
  <!-- 3. Display the application -->
  <body>
    <my-app>Loading...</my-app>
  </body>
</html>

*Modify the package.json so it has what is needed from both environments. Mine looks like this:

    "webpack-merge": "^0.14.0"
  }
}

*From the webpack folder, run npm install

*From the webpack folder, run npm run build to create prod build files. This is what the webpack tutorial says to do.

*Create a node server environment.

*Create a server.js file at the root that looks like this:
var express = require("express");

var app = express();

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
    console.log("Request recieved for:", req.url);
    next();
});

app.use(express.static('public'));

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
    res.status(404);
    res.send('404 file not found');
});

app.listen(4040, function() {
    console.log("yes: 4040");
});

*In the node environment, create a public folder, and put all the files from the dist folder that was created in step 6 into the public folder.

*Run the node server with node server.js

*Go to localhost:4040. Everything works fine when accessed this way.

*Enter this URL directly: http://localhost:4040/heroes

*Get the 404 Error.

*From the webpack environment if you run npm start, you can go to the URL directly http://localhost:4040/heroes and it works fine.

If you want to see all the code for this, here is the github repo: https://github.com/joshuaforman/heroeswebpack

A: I've got it figured out. The issue was in the server.js. After more research, I found this: https://expressjs.com/en/starter/static-files.html. Need to add more middleware after the express.static middleware: app.use('/heroes', express.static('public'));. The direct URLs work as needed with this server.js file:
var express = require("express");

var app = express();

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
    console.log("Request recieved for:", req.url);
    next();
});

app.use(express.static('public'));
app.use('/heroes', express.static('public'));
app.use('/dashboard', express.static('public'));

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
    res.status(404);
    res.send('404 file not found');
});

app.listen(4040, function() {
    console.log("yes: 4040");
});

The app I'm working on also needs to pass params, so if you need to do that, you will need middleware of this format:
app.get('/peopledetails/:uid', function(req, res){
    var uid = req.params.uid,
        path = req.params[0] ? req.params[0] : 'index.html';
    res.sendFile(path, {root: './public'});
});

Thanks to this stack question for the above: Serve Static Files on a Dynamic Route using Express.
Thanks for the help, folks.

Total Printing: What does Digital and Litho Printing mean?
What does Digital and Litho Printing mean?
Whether you're just setting up in business or have been tasked with buying new corporate stationery, if you're ordering printing on a regular basis you'll soon come across the terms 'digital' and 'litho'. So what do they mean, and why should you care?
First off, digital printing covers a pretty broad range of applications since it's the buzzword for the reproduction of digital images (artwork) on physical surfaces. This includes paper or print stock, as well as cloth and plastic etc. In print terms, digital printing is essentially the same as your home printer, just on an industrial scale. Toner (ink) is transferred to the material as dots of colour (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) which make up the image. There's very little set up making turnaround time fast, and as prints are usually run individually (often on a3 sheets) there's little to no 'economy of scale' when printing 50,000 compared to 50. As a result, digital printing is usually used for short run printing of up to 2500 copies.
Litho (lithographic) printing is a process where an inked image on a plate is transferred to a rubber roller inside the printing press. As paper stock passes through the press, ink is transferred directly on to the page. The resulting print is far higher quality than with digital printing, with gradients and areas of solid colour reproducing as they should be - unlike digital printing where they're 'interpreted'.
Set up time with litho printing is time heavy, but artwork is 'ganged' together and printed in bulk, which massively reduces the cost per unit. As such it's perfectly suited to longer run print jobs (usually 2500+).
Digital printing is lower quality than litho.
So, armed with this knowledge, you should have a basic idea of what the differences are, and therefore which you should be looking to buy. Some printers offer either digital or litho, where others (like us) offer both.
Hope you found this info useful, if you have any questions let us know!


POTATO cyst nematode testing got a boost this week with the launch of a new service which identifies both the number and species of nematode present in soil samples.
"The current goal of potato cyst nematode control is for intensive sampling and integrated management.
"But that is hampered by the problem of cost and efficiency of analysis," says Anna Budden of Natural Resource Management in Bracknell, Berks.
The new test uses ELISA techniques developed by IACR-Rothamsted, Zeneca and Natural Resource Management. It can identify live, potentially invasive nematodes, and differentiate between species. Unlike visual assessment it is not prone to human error, claims NRM.
Results guaranteed within a week and supplied as both the number of eggs/g of soil and the ratio of Globodera rostochiensis to G. pallida. Armed with that information growers can manage the pest far more effectively, maintains NRMs Michael Eustace.
Cost is £20 per sample, which includes transport and packaging. The test will be available this month, from NRM only.

More rips being uploaded
* Taiker - Funny they use a Castlevania song..They changed the last half but the beginning is the same. lol I thought you couldn't even make an arranged version like they did here of Vampire Hunter..
* Icey + DLC Ucey's Awakening
* Windscape ~ Some music reminds me of some Zelda games
* Backstab - This game has good music.. Pity on Android/ios the game has unplayable vxn files. They are probably some kind of ADPCM variant as the game's playable .wav files are IMA adpcm.

Hey Mark, it's so nice to see you as active in VGM ripping as ever! Thanks for most of your recent releases and especially Divinity: Original sin 2 (I've already listened through half of it I think and there're actually lots of neat ambient tracks in the set)!
May I still suggest a few more titles which would benefit from (re)ripping? There're very few VGs ATM, just be sure of it!
For example Brink scored by composers of Primal & MediEvil: Resurrection doesn't have a streamed rip for any platform, in fact only OrangeC's version with 93 tracks exists (or trimmed down 35 tracks custom album). My guess is that the game's easily rippable and someone can make a set for this VG, be it console port or PC version.
I checked out that OJ's ver. a week ago and would call Brink score a little brother of Singularity soundtrack since they have much in common (the former has slightly less electronics than orchestra, rarely throws guitar riffs in the mix and is way shorter than the latter but both are quite similar). Oh and duo who scored Brink is Bob & Barn.
Also I was quite surprised to not find Shank sets at all because this 2D beat 'em up dilogy is well-known and at least Shank 1, PC variant is simple 5.1 FSB MP3 (I ripped it eons ago but my ver. was apparently incomplete as hell, I probably processed Music.fsb and forgot about remainder, I didn't even search for CS/FMV audio / any additional score pieces). I believe that our VGM collection really feels like incomplete without any Shank sets.
There're OSTs for both installments you see so that you can get an idea of what to expect before really attempting to rip these games. Both are quite short but still nice (I presume they kinda represent my view on an (almost) ideal score for a Wild West themed VG).
If you wanna some challenge try ripping Stuntman: Ignition for X360 (be it simply extracting streams or making them ultimately play or decode). Funny thing is I managed to add XMA headers to all SFX banks and decode resulting files to WAV but processing BGM.ARC (or whatever it's named) proved to be much more difficult.
Anyway at least PS3 or PS2 (OrangeC posted it in his Goldmine of rips IIRC) are significantly easier, I ripped the former many years ago with just Cube media player 2 and almost all the tracks sounded fine (but for a few I couldn't find an interleave value). Maybe tools like Fastelbja's ADPCM player or CMP aren't appropriate for such tasks, what if the game's easier rippable than I originally thought and there're actually FSB/SS2 containers inside the bigfile? I wasn't experienced at all back in the day so I can only wonder nowadays.
Oh and about soundtrack itself! It's some really varied collection of both instrumental and vocal songs with quite a portion of original music by Bob Daspit & Cris Velasco. This last detail means that select compositions remind us of other great original scores by those two.
And the last one for today is "The house of the dead: Overkill - Extended (Director's) cut" for PS3. Just as Wii ver. available from JoshW.Info this port features tons of funky, psychedelic and electronic music plus hours of utterly hilarious cutscenes!
I sort of ripped it long time ago with just ADPCM player v1.44h but more worthy rip should be added to archives at some point. I mean lots of streams extracted as MIB ones and sounded fine (interleave was right when played back in VGMstream) but I still had to add SS2 headers with Alpha's BMS so that frequency was right! There were also supposedly headerless *.PS2 files where I had to guess all the main audio specs for files...
And maybe this VG was way easier to rip, I mean like there're "SShd", "FSB4" or other known headers in bigfiles! Anyway... I'd welcome any kind of rerip since I'm pretty eager to revisit this neat OST so please keep me posted if you ever decide to attempt ripping the title.
Bye all and keep this VGM flood going as Mark once said! I'd like to thank Masamune for some rips too (like NASCAR Rumble or Rumble racing)!
PS. @Mark - Are you gonna post Implosion rip? I'm still interested in checking it out even if some BGMs are spliced with SFX/VOs. Your notion about its similarity to GI Joe: The rise of cobra score got hooked me up and I'm so curious!
PPS. Also the very 1st Stuntman for PS2 remains terra incognita for most folks since interleave's a pest in that VG and apparently no one has ever figured it out and made any kind of software rip. Give it a try if you feel like it!
