Q: Pandas replace NaN values with data from a different dataframe I'm trying to replace NaN values in df1 with values from df2.  The 'replacement' value in df2 is located by two inputs, p/n and operation.

Because the desired NaN value in df1 is dependent on the P/N and Operation, looking up the value in df2 must contain both the P/N and Operation.  Sorting df1 for the Nan values can be found using:
df1 = df1.loc[df1['Time'].isnull()]

Where finding the replacement value can also be located
`
df2 = df2.loc[(df2['P/N'] == pn) & (df2['Operation'] == op), 'Time']

`
The dataframes are too large to merge (plus there is a benefit to keeping them separate)...how can df2 be used as a lookup table for the 'Time' column in df1?
This post is similar but I had a difficult time understanding the solution, plus I'm unsure how to make lambda dependent on two lookup values: Pandas replace all NaN values with data from a different dataframe
Any help is appreciated.

Fianna Fáil candidates launch ambitious vision for city
By Kernan Andrews Galway Advertiser, Thu, May 21, 2009
The restoration of a healthy relationship between councillors and council officials, positioning Galway as a leader in the alternative energy sector, integrating the city's diverse communities, and completing the Galway City Outer Bypass are Fianna Fáil's priorities for the next Galway City Council.
Fianna Fáil's seven local election candidates this week launched A New Direction for Galway City Council, an ambitious document outlining their vision for Galway city over the next five years.
Councillors John Connolly (Galway City Central ), Michael J Crowe (Galway City East ) and Mary Leahy (Galway City East ) were joined by candidates Val Hanley and Peter Keane (Galway City West ), Ollie Crowe (Galway City Central ), and Sheila Mangan (Galway City East ), as well as the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs Éamon Ó Cuív and Dep Frank Fahey TD for the launch of A New Direction for Galway City Council
A New Direction for Galway City Council outlines the party's priorities for the next city council which will address the economic, infrastructural, and community issues affecting Galway.
Cllr John Connolly criticised the Fine Gael/Labour dominance of the council, accusing it of indulging in "one-upmanship, ego development, and insults" and treating the "issues that required serious debate have been a mere afterthought".
He said the current council has projected a negative image of Galway with "every opportunity taken to highlight and exaggerate the city's difficulties without any concern" for Galway's reputation.
As such Fianna Fáil were releasing A New Direction that will lay the ground for "the restoration of a healthy relationship between members and council officials and management, something that is essential to efficient local government".
Peter Keane outlined Fianna Fáil's vision for Galway as a leader in the emerging area of alternative energy.
"Alternative energy is fast emerging as a major employer," he said. "In A New Direction we have committed to focusing on this crucial area, and that will start with the establishment of a new Strategic Policy Committee to strengthen the commitment of the city council in the area."
He said FF will get the council to work with Enterprise Ireland, the IDA, NUI, Galway, and GMIT to establish Galway as a central location for research, development, and manufacture of equipment for alternative energy industries.
Businessman Ollie Crowe said he wants to see the commercial rates were frozen for the next three years.
"I have first-hand experience of the difficulties being experienced by business people in the city at the moment," he said. "We must work to see a reduction in the red tape involved in small and medium sized businesses and it is vital that we do whatever we can to encourage entrepreneurship. It is a disgrace to see all the units that are currently empty on Shop Street."
Mary Leahy highlighted the need for more "joined-up-thinking" on the council in relation to providing community supports to deter anti-social behaviour, and in relation to the integration of foreign nationals living in the city.
"More than 40 different nationalities are represented in the Doughiska area," she said. "It is vital the city council initiates a structured response to ensuring they are effectively integrated into the city's community."
Cllr Crowe said FF councillors are focused on their work and on delivering for the people of Galway.
"There have been considerable improvements in the city as a result of our work," he said, "including the establishment of the private bus centre at Fairgreen, the roll out of Quality Bus Corridors and the continuing work on the development of park and ride facilities."
Val Hanley said the party also remains committed to the Galway City Outer Bypass, a structure he accused the Labour Party councillors of trying to obstruct.
"Fianna Fáil is 100 per cent supportive of the Galway City Outer Bypass," he said. "Labour leader Eamon Gilmore repeatedly berates the Government for what he claims is a lack of investment in infrastructural projects, yet his own councillors in the city have been most against the bypass at city council level."
First-time candidate, Sheila Mangan said there is a need to improve community facilities.
"I believe community development is the process by which any community is enriched or made better by the work within a community through the council and voluntary organisations," she said. "These organisations allow all members of the community to be involved in local decisions."
However Fine Gael Galway City East councillor Brian Walsh described the FF comments and document as "the sting of a dying wasp".

London, Jan 21 (IANS) Researchers at Cardiff University have discovered a new type of killer T-cell that offers hope of a "one-size-fits-all" cancer therapy.
These T-cells were shown, in the lab, to kill lung, skin, blood, colon, breast, bone, prostate, ovarian, kidney and cervical cancer cells, while ignoring healthy cells.
T-cell therapies for cancer - where immune cells are removed, modified and returned to the patient's blood to seek and destroy cancer cells - are the latest paradigm in cancer treatments.
The most widely-used therapy, known as CAR-T, is personalised to each patient but targets only a few types of cancers and has not been successful for solid tumours.
Cardiff researchers have now discovered T-cells equipped with a new type of T-cell receptor (TCR) which recognises and kills most human cancer types, while ignoring healthy cells.
Accordinf to researchers, it was "highly unusual" to find a TCR with such broad cancer specificity and this raised the prospect of "universal" cancer therapy.
"We hope this new TCR may provide us with a different route to target and destroy a wide range of cancers in all individuals," said Professor Andrew Sewell, lead author on the study and an expert in T-cells from Cardiff University's School of Medicine.
This TCR recognises a molecule present on the surface of a wide range of cancer cells as well as in many of the body's normal cells but, remarkably, is able to distinguish between healthy cells and cancerous ones, killing only the latter.
The study, published in Nature Immunology, describes a unique TCR that can recognise many types of cancer via a single HLA-like molecule called MR1.
Unlike HLA, MR1 does not vary in the human population - meaning it is a hugely attractive new target for immunotherapies.
The researchers said it offers "exciting opportunities for pan-cancer, pan-population" immunotherapies not previously thought possible.
"Cancer-targeting via MR1-restricted T-cells is an exciting new frontier - it raises the prospect of a aone-size-fits-all' cancer treatment; a single type of T-cell that could be capable of destroying many different types of cancers across the population," elaborated Sewell.

A response to Joe Bunting's Fail Faster (So You Can Become a Better Writer).
"Writers are terrible judges of their own work," Joe said.
The words resonated deep in the recesses of my soul. All my life, I was the student in the front row, needing that big red "A" to tell me I was doing it right. Otherwise how would I know?
When I picked up writing and art again, after a long hiatus of mommying and homeschooling, it was scary. I didn't know what I was doing. I kept looking for something, someone, to tell me I was doing it right.
But all I had was the encouragement of my risk taking husband who just believed in me, and bloggers like Emily and Nester, telling me I didn't have to be perfect. And God. I was Abram, leaving what I knew for a place that God would show me.
I started this blog and bought my first canvas. I started listening to the voice inside, however tentatively.
Now Joe was bringing me back to my senses. Who did I think I was, anyway?
And suddenly, the voice inside said rather loudly, "No, no, no. That's not how it is at all." It went against everything I had learned just the week before.
I had taken a small, calculated risk, setting out to recapture Gustav Klimt's Mother and Child with acrylic paint. True, I had never painted people before. But Klimt had already risked public opinion, and he had gotten it right. All I needed to do was follow.
The thing I hate about risk is, no matter how calculated, it's still unpredictable. The figures were easy to copy, but this was no paint by number kit. I needed to find the right mix of color for skin, lips, hair, and shadows. As I experimented, my Mother and Child turned shades of grey, blue, brown, and pink.
But in the process I became bolder. I changed hairstyles, rearranged flowers. Still Klimt, but with my own subtle variations.
I was putting on the finishing touches when I realized I wanted a different Mother. I hadn't questioned it before. I had been too busy trying to copy Klimt. I still admire Klimt's Mother and Child, but the slightly crooked face, prim little mouth, and hefty jaw wasn't right for my Mother.
I painted over my Mother's face and sketched the face I wanted — the face I knew belonged there. (Hopefully I'll be posting the finished painting soon!).
Other points of view are important — if only for comparison, food for thought. I can always learn something. At the very least, I can know better what I don't think.
My opinion should be informed. But in the end, my opinion is my own.
Whether painting or writing, I have a story I was created to tell. I need to tell it, whether or not anyone else thinks it's good. I need to say it, even if no one is listening. And just maybe I'll be surprised.
About a year ago, I wrote a guest post that completely failed. It was for a large writing blog, and over the following few days it got about 20 comments from people who all disagreed with me.
Now I've written an entire post disagreeing with what he wrote — by his definition, telling him that he failed. But I see it differently.
Joe inspired me to think hard about my writing, about my art. I discovered connections I didn't know were there. He inspired me to write. And even though I disagreed with his point of view, he taught me something.
Thank you, Joe, for saying what you needed to say. I'm going to take your advice and write the story I'm afraid to write. Even if it's one that I don't think I'm good enough to write.
You can visit Joe Bunting at The Write Practice where he blogs about writing. Check out his writing prompts.

For example, the fundamental theorem of calculus gives the relationship between differential calculus and integral calculus, which are two distinct branches that are not obviously related. Being "fundamental" does not necessarily mean that it is the most basic result. For example, the proof of the fundamental theorem of arithmetic requires Euclid's lemma, which in turn requires Bézout's identity.

Spasticity is an unwelcome side effect of many neurological conditions such as stroke, brain injury or cerebral palsy. Characterized by rigid or tight muscles, spasticity is not actually caused by the muscles, but rather by the area of the brain controlling muscle movement.
People who live with spasticity may find that it limits activity and interferes with performing some of the tasks of daily living. While there is no cure for spasticity or its underlying causes, there are treatments available that significantly improve movement and decrease pain.
Raymond Rajkowski, 28, of Galloway, N.J. (right), was recently a patient at Bacharach Institute for Rehabilitation. While Raymond could nimbly speed from place to place in a motorized wheelchair controlled with his hands, his legs were very spastic. He was at Bacharach while he was adjusting to using an implanted pump to deliver anti-spasticity medication, known as baclofen, directly to his spinal column.
Since the pump is implanted beneath the skin, Raymond will return periodically to have it refilled with medication. At that time, he and his doctor can also discuss any dosing changes that might be beneficial. Dosing is regulated by a handheld device that sends the commands to the implanted pump.
At a recent visit about a month after his inpatient stay, Raymond counted the ways that the baclofen pump is helping him.
"I am doing fabulously, actually. There is a vast difference in how easy it is to get ready for work and just bathing – and just in general," said Raymond who works in the Government Documents Office at the Richard Stockton College.


To give you a better idea what's inside, I made a little video flicking through my new book.
Now, you just have to get yourself a copy here and do the same.
FYI: Your book looks great—but your links to it, both in email and on your blog, aren't working. (I did find it by searching Amazon, though….) Love your work!
Hi, thanks for pointing this out. I think I took care of it.
Enjoy the book – I'd love to hear what you think about it!

Golden Globe Awards 2023: SS Rajamouli's magnum opus RRR bags two nominations; Jr NTR is 'delighted'
SS Rajamouli's RRR took two places at the prestigious 2023 on Monday Golden Globes nominations list. The film is nominated in the Best Picture – Non-English Language category and competes with All Quiet on the Western Front, Argentina, 1985, Close and Decision to Leave. RRR song "Naatu Naatu" is nominated in the Best Original Song – Motion Picture category, competing with "Carolina" from Where the Crawdads Sing, "Ciao Papa" from Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio, "Hold My Hand" from Top Gun: Maverick and "Lift Me Up" from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
After announcing the nominations, RRR actor Jr NTR took to Twitter to express his happiness. He tweeted, "Happy to have #RRRMovie nominated in two categories at the Golden Globe Awards! Congratulations to all of us… Looking forward to it."
Rajamouli's RRR has been in the headlines since it hit theaters and its recent arrival in the West, thanks to Netflix and US screenings, is just the icing on the cake. The film has garnered several international awards, including Rajamouli's Best Director Award from the New York Film Critics Circle. The film also won the Saturn Prize in the Best International Film category. The National Board of Review named RRR one of the ten best films of the year. The magnum opus also took second place in the Best Picture category at the 2022 Hollywood Critics Association Midseason Awards.

Speaking of RRR's success in the west, SS Rajamouli told Indiewire, "Of course I'm happy about it. I can't pinpoint why it happened, but I'd say part of it is that Western audiences don't get the full action of Masala movies. Maybe Hollywood movies don't give them enough of that. That's what I understand when I look at the response. In any case, that really surprised me and I am very happy with it."

This blog contains information on building a custom search for websites using the famous Apache Solr platform.
As a complete web dev environment for windows i recommend using XAMPP. It comes with built in Tomcat servlet, so you won't have to waste your time installing tomcat. Well regarding version of tomcat, i have successfully tested solr on tomcat 5,6 and 7.
Tomcat can be managed from xampp control panel or you can install it as a windows service so that it can be run independently from xampp. Well doesn't matter much whether it is xampp service or a windows service. To install it as a windows service run the 'service' batch file in c:\xampp\tomcat\bin .
Copy downloads\apache-solr-3.6.0\dist\apache-solr-3.6.0.war file to C:\xampp\tomcat\webapps directory and rename it to solr. If tomcat service is on you will find that a solr directory is automatically created. If tomcat is off don't bother it would be created next time tomcat starts.
That's it. Solr is installed and now it can be used to do fast searching on huge amount of data from any source be it a sql database or a file. But to do that a lot of work still needs to be done related to request handlers and schemas. In the future posts i will be talking about the internals of solr.
Note : If you get errors like no cores were created or unable to load class java.* error, that simply means that you made mistake in either providing solr home path correctly in tomcat7w.exe or you forgot to copy dist and contrib folders to c:\solr.
Post your queries if you have issues installing solr.
i followed the instructions. I can to the solr home page but when I click admin I get the "missing core name in path" i did copy the dis and contrib files to my solr home file and still get the same error.
i got it this time.. I went back getting the info you needed and realized I was one solr file too deep. i removed the contents and delete the extra solr file and for now, it work.
Will try and integrate drupal now.
And I double-checked solr the home path in tomcat7w.exe and DID the dist and contrib folders to c:\solr. Any other ideas?
i got the same issue. what's the fix for your side?
And btw - there is a solrconfig.xml in C:\solr\solr\solr\collection1\conf. Is that the right folder?
I am also not able to find dist folder. Any help?
'Service does not exist as an installed service. Unable to open tomcat7w'. Am running it as administrator. Am able to start it fine through the XAMPP control panel though, but there doesn't seem to be a way to invoke the dialog from the control panel. Am using XAMPP portable version.
What could be wrong here..? Please help.
localhost:8080/solr/admin, get the following error. Any ideas?
I have both solar path correctly set in tomcat7w.exe and dist and contrib folders are in c:\solr.
The instructions here said to copy the files from the example folder into your solr home. This did not work for me.
I then tried copying the files from the examples/solr folder to my solr home. This solved my problem.
Yes this is what i did. Please update the article for other readers.
When I run the test to the localhost..the SOLR admin screen comes up with Spinning icon that says "Loading" Any clues on what Im doing wrong? Thanks!
Where does it show loading and do you see any errors ?
Please attach a screenshot of the browser window when you query and also solr log files which are named 'catalina' and placed in Tomcat installation directory. Without those it is impossible to find out what is wrong.
Copy paste the contents of the log file on 'pastebin' or something and post the link here.
anyone got any ideas on how to get tika 1.3 integrated with solr 3.6.2 and drupal7 using the Apache Solr Attachments module to work? I have been running into problems getting this to work for a couple of weeks now.
There is a bunch of other info excluded but this is the heart of it. Anyone have any ideas?

Brazil birth defects cases rising
The cases of babies born with unusually small heads continue to rise in Brazil where researchers say they have found new evidence linking the increase to the Zika virus spreading through the Americas.
The Ministry of Health said the number of suspected cases of microcephaly, a neurological disorder in which infants are born with smaller craniums and brains, increased to 3893 by January 16 from 3530 cases 10 days earlier.
The number of reported deaths of deformed babies rose to 49, ministry officials said at a news conference.
So far, health authorities have only confirmed six cases of microcephaly where the infant was infected with the mosquito-borne Zika virus.
The surge of cases since the new virus was first detected last year in Brazil led the ministry to link it to the fetal deformations and warn pregnant women to use insect repellent to avoid mosquito bites.
On Tuesday, Brazilian researchers took another step towards proving Zika causes microcephaly. The Fiocruz biomedical centre in Curitiba announced it had found Zika in the placenta of a woman who had a miscarriage, proving the virus can reach the fetus. Until now, researchers had only found Zika in the amniotic fluid of two pregnant women.
"This is a significant advance, but we still cannot scientifically state that Zika is the cause of microcephaly," said Jean Peron, an immunology expert who is experimenting on pregnant mice at the University of Sao Paulo's Institute of Biomedical Sciences.
The Zika virus is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which is also known to carry the dengue, yellow fever and Chikungunya viruses.
Health experts are unsure why the virus detected in Africa in 1947, but unknown in the Americas until last year, is spreading so rapidly in Brazil and neighbouring countries.
The US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention issued a travel advisory last week warning pregnant women to avoid 14 countries and territories in the Caribbean and Latin America affected by the virus.
Last week, US health authorities confirmed the birth of a baby with microcephaly in Hawaii to a mother who had been infected with the Zika virus while visiting Brazil last year.

Q: I can't figure out std::string substr my font filename extractor is not working...
filename_: ".\\Source\\AlexBrush-Regular.ttf"
and I'm using
sprintf(buffer, "\nFont Name:%s \nNumber of errors: %d\nAscent %d High +%d Descent -%d Low -%d!",
                font->filename_.substr( font->filename_.find_last_of('\\'), font->filename_.length() ), hitcount, Ascent, Descent, High, Low);

my ouput looks like
buffer  0x008aecbc "\nFont Name:ÀëŠ \nNumber of errors: 12688232\nAscent -858993460 High +-858993460 Descent --858993460 Low -22!"

A: Just use basename(font->filename_.c_str()) which does exactly what you want to do and is platform-independent.

A: I tried to reproduce your problem with a little example :
#include <string>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    string filename(".\\Source\\AlexBrush-Regular.ttf");

    cout << filename.substr(filename.find_last_of('\\') + 1) << endl;

    return 0;
}

and the output is :
AlexBrush-Regular.ttf
First, I add "1" to the first parameter, because the function find_last_of() will search the position of the last character and I don't think you want to include it in your output.
Secondly, I erase the second argument, because the default value is string::npos and it indicates all characters until the end of the string.
If you have always your problem, please be more specific to what you want.

A: It would be a better idea to solve this using C++ facilities (i.e. stringstream) rather than C facilities, considering you are using a std::string. In that case, please see this snippet here for how you might do that.
If you insist on using sprintf, then you will have to get the underlying c-string, which you can call like:
const std::string mystr("foo");
const char *mycstr(mystr.c_str());

Cricket world honours Shane Warne on what would have been his 53rd birthday
Fans joined sporting figures in honouring Warne's birthday, while reflecting on his stellar sporting career. Source: Getty Images.
On March 4, 2022, one of the greatest cricketers of all time, Shane Warne, died of a suspected heart attack, age 52 while enjoying a holiday on the island of Koh Samui in Thailand.
Following his sudden death, Warne's management released a statement acknowledging the tragedy.
"Shane was found unresponsive in his villa and despite the best efforts of medical staff, he could not be revived," the statement said.
After the news broke of his tragic passing tributes poured in from across the globe from fellow cricketers, celebrities, and politicians alike.
Warne would have turned 53 this week, his birthday falling on Tuesday, September 13, and although he may no longer be with us that hasn't stopped the cricket world and fans of the late cricket icon from taking to social media to wish him a "happy heavenly birthday".
Warne's family led the birthday tributes to the late King of Spin, sharing a photo of the cricket legend mid-bow during a cricket match alongside the caption, "Happy Birthday 1969-2022".
"A legacy gives you a perspective on what's important," the caption read.
"It is about the richness of an individual's life, including what they accomplished and the impact they had on people and places.
"Shane's Legacy will live on.
"Happy birthday – always in our hearts."
A post shared by Shane Warne (@shanewarne23)
Australian entertainment figures such as Natalie Imbruglia joined fans in flooding the comments section with birthday wishes.
Professional surfer Kelly Slater said "Gonna miss Shane at the Dunhill".
"Happy heavenly birthday @shanewarne23. Sending all our love to brooke, jacko, summer, Keith, Brigette, Jason, H, and families x," one fan wrote.
"Hope your bowling in some good areas up in heaven Shane."
"No doubt about it. Not many people on the planet have been so good at their craft that they literally changed the game & inspired a new generation of talent to follow in his footsteps. And he did so with such a competitive edge & Aussie larrikin spirit that just etches him even more into his legend status. Happy bday king," another commented.
"Thinking of all the family today. And thinking of you Shane.. looking down on us all and protecting the kids from above."
Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar said he "will cherish" the "many memorable moments" he shared with Warne while wishing him a happy birthday.

Warne was widely considered one of the greatest bowlers in cricket history. He played his first Test match in 1992 and took over 1,000 wickets in Tests and One-Day Internationals over the course of his career. Warne's 708 Test wickets from 145 tests was the record for the most wickets taken by any bowler in Test cricket until 2007.
Wisden Cricketers' Almanack recognised Shane's incredible sporting achievements by naming him as one of its Five Cricketers of the Twentieth Century alongside fellow cricket icons Sir Donald Bradman, Sir Garfield Sobers, Sir Jack Hobbs and Sir Vivian Richards. He was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame in 2013.
It is said by many that Warne revolutionised cricket with his mastery of the leg spin, which, back in 1994, many cricket followers had come to regard as a dying art due to its immense difficulty of execution.

A United States Citizen can help their alien fiance obtain lawful permanent residence in the United States. One way is to apply for a fiance visa if your fiance resides overseas and you wish to marry in the United States. If approved, your fiance can enter the United States for 90 days in order for the marriage to take place. Once the marriage occurs, your spouse is able to apply for permanent residence and remain in the United States while the matter is processed. An I-129F Form – Petition for Alien Fiance(e) – must be completed an submitted. Once approved, the matter is forwarded to the United States embassy or consulate located nearest to where the fiance lives.
Another method is to marry your fiance overseas. If this occurs a Form I-130 – Petition for Alien Relative – is submitted. In addition to this form, the United States citizen and his or her alien spouse must each complete Form G-325A which provides general biographical information. The purpose for these steps is to prevent marriage fraud.
The marriage certificate alone attached to your petition will not suffice. Other documentation are needed, such as photos, love letters, affidavits from relatives and friends attesting to the marriage, etc. For fiance petitions, it is recommended that you retain an experienced immigration lawyer, such as attorney Sufen Hilf.
If you marry the alien in the United States, proof that the marriage is real needs to be submitted. There is an expectation that you and your alien spouse would reside together after marriage. Other signs of a real marriage include the comingling of your assets through joint bank accounts, joint tax filing, mortgages and titles in both names, etc. The birth certificate of a child born of the marriage is, of course, very strong proof. If your spouse is already in the United States (under most circumstances) you would file a Form I-130 Petition for Alien Relative and the Form I-485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status at the same time.
Other necessary documents to the process include the following: Form I-864 Affidavit of Support, Form I-131 Application for Travel Document, I -765 Application for Employment Authorization, and Form I-693 Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record. The Form I-693 needs to be completed by a USCIS approved Civil Surgeon.
Once all of the aforementioned forms are received, a background check will need to be completed before any adjustment of status or work authorization can be granted.
The final step in the process is the marriage interview. If everything goes well, the immigration officer who conducted the interview can approve the application on the spot by stamping the alien spouse's passport with a I-551 stamp which indicates that they are a lawful permanent resident if your spouse need to travel before he or she receives the green card itself. I takes approximately 2 to 3 weeks to receive the green card by mail if everything goes well.
If the marriage occurred less than 2 years before, the green card is only good for 2 years. After the 2 year period, Form I-751 Petition to Remove the Conditions of Residence must be submitted within 90 days of the green card's expiration, along with proof as to the validity of the marriage. If the marriage was more than 2 years before prior to the adjustment of status, the alien is issued a green card without conditions. In 3 years the now lawful permanent resident spouse can apply for United States Citizenship. Otherwise, the green card must be renewed every 10 years.


Built in December 1940, Fort Leonard Wood is an army installation located in the Missouri Ozarks. The main entrance is found south of St. Robert. It was named after the former Chief of Staff, General Leonard Wood in January 1941. Its main purpose is to train infantry troops but it also became an engineer training post in 1941 after the creation of the Engineer Replacement Training Center. Italian and German POWs were also interned here during World War II.
Included in the Base Realignment and Closure process in 1984, a vast number of the US Army Engineer School's operations were conjoined at Fort Leonard Wood which was formerly exercised at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. In 1999, Fort McClellan, Alabama was closed as a part of Base Realignment and Closure Process and the US Army Chemical Corps and Military Police Corps schools relocated to Fort Leonard Wood which was simultaneously joined by the US Army Maneuver Support Center.

Wendiceratops é um gênero de dinossauro ceratopsiano centrosaurino herbívoro do Cretáceo Superior do Canadá. Seus fósseis foram encontrados na Formação Oldman, no sul de Alberta em 2011. Em 2015 foi descrito pelos paleontólogos David Evans e Michael Ryan, a partir do holótipo TMP 2011.051.0009. A espécie-tipo é denominada Wendiceratops pinhornensis.

Descoberta

Em 2010, a caçadora de fósseis canadense Wendy Sloboda encontrou uma pilha de ossos identificados como de dinossauros do clado Centrosaurinae na Pinhorn Provincial Grazing Reserve ao sul do Rio Milk, Condado de Forty Mile No. 8, Alberta. Em 2011, uma equipe do Royal Tyrrell Museum explorou o local e começou a escavar fósseis. No ano seguinte, uma sobrecarga profunda foi removida. Em 2013 e 2014, vários fósseis foram descobertos.

Em 2015, os paleontólogos David Evans e Michael Ryan nomearam e descreveram a espécie-tipo Wendiceratops pinhornensis. O nome genérico combina uma referência a Wendy Sloboda com um ~ceratops grego latinizado, "cara de chifre". O nome específico refere-se à proveniência da Reserva Pinhorn. Wendiceratops foi o segundo ceratopsiano descoberto e nomeado em 2015. A descoberta desta nova espécie de dinossauro com chifres - começando do solo em Alberta, através de estudos científicos e restauração, até sua eventual reconstrução e exibição pública no Museu Real de Ontário (ROM) - foi capturada na série HISTORY e no site associado Dino Hunt Canadá.

O holótipo, TMP 2011.051.0009, foi encontrado em uma camada da Formação Oldman, datada do estágio Campaniano. A camada de lamito, com 40 centímetros de espessura e provavelmente depositada em um único evento, tem uma idade superior possível de 79 milhões de anos e uma idade inferior de 78,7 milhões de anos. O holótipo consiste em um osso parietal direito. Sob a suposição de que o leito ósseo continha apenas uma única espécie centrosaurina, todo o material fóssil adicional com tais características foi referido como sendo do Wendidiceratops pinhornensis, para um total de 184 espécimes representando vários indivíduos, incluindo juvenis. Os ossos compreendem elementos do crânio, mandíbulas inferiores, coluna vertebral, cintura escapular, pelve e membros. Eles são amplamente desarticulados. Além dos ossos de Wendiceratops, foram encontrados restos de terópodes tiranossaurídeos, crocodilos, peixes e plantas.

Descrição

Wendiceratops pesava cerca de uma tonelada e tinha um comprimento de cerca de 6 metros.

Os autores que descrevem indicaram dois traços únicos, ou autapomorfias: na borda posterior do babado do pescoço, o segundo e terceiro epiparietais, que são ossificações da pele aderidas à borda, têm base larga, são verticalmente grossos e curvam-se obliquamente para cima para a frente , pendendo dos ramos laterais posteriores e externos do osso parietal. O ísquio tem uma extremidade inferior retangular expandida.

Wendiceratops é ainda distinguido pela presença de um chifre de nariz ereto e pela falta de um espigão vertical no babado traseiro. O chinês Sinoceratops  tem epiparietais semelhantes, mas, além disso, um epiparietal na linha média central e saliências abaixo dos epiparietais, que estão ausentes no Wendiceratops.

Esqueleto
Enquanto as espécies centrosaurinas possuíam um padrão único de ornamentação de babados, seu esqueleto pós-craniano, as partes do corpo atrás do crânio, era muito conservador, ou seja, mostrava pouca variação. Assim, os descritores puderam encontrar pouca distinção entre os ossos pós-cranianos de Wendiceratops. Uma exceção foi o ísquio. Em outros centrosaurinos este osso pélvico tinha, em vista lateral, o ponto mais largo de sua diáfise na metade do comprimento. O ísquio de Wendiceratops no entanto, cresceu mais em direção a sua extremidade inferior, resultando em uma forma geralmente retangular.

Embora a maioria dos espécimes fosse robusta, aparentemente de indivíduos adultos, alguns ossos eram de juvenis. Duas tíbias foram encontradas com um comprimento de apenas vinte centímetros.

Classificação
Wendiceratops foi colocado no Centrosaurinae, como espécie irmã de Sinoceratops. Seu clado formou um "pente" ou politomia com Albertaceratops, outro centrosaurino da mesma formação e o clado dos centrosaurinos mais derivados. Wendiceratops e Sinoceratops foram mais derivados, mais altos na árvore evolutiva, do que Xenoceratops. Sua posição, no entanto, em geral bastante basal, está de acordo com a alta idade absoluta dos Wendiceratops vivendo apenas um milhão de anos depois dos centrosaurinos mais antigos conhecidos Xenoceratops e Diabloceratops. A última análise filogenética incluindo Wendiceratops é reproduzida abaixo, por Chiba et al. (2017):

Some News Related To Tesla Gigafactories
Posted: Admin on 2022-06-01 2022-05-30
In this article, we talk about different Tesla gigafactories around the world and its latest news.
It has been a rough year until now, especially for the automotive industry. The COVID-19 pandemic once again caused shutdowns across China. This caused supply chain shortages globally.
i0.wp.com
Besides this, the Russia-Ukraine war has also played a detrimental role in this industry.
Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory Has Got Some Good News For Customers
However, according to recent reports, the Shanghai factory is finally back to the pre-shutdown production levels.
Earlier this year, the factory had to completely close its operations for 22 days but it reopened its gates for workers on the 19th of April.
After this, the factory was reopened for 8,000 workers who worked on a close loop basis while staying inside the setup.
What Is Tesla Striving To Achieve At The Shanghai Gigafactory?
Tesla is now confident that it will be able to beef up production figures.
Here is what it wants to achieve:
Up to 2,600 EVs daily;
16,000 vehicles per week.
Annual production of approximately 800,000 vehicles.
However, after the recent progress, these figures now seem attainable.
thedriven.io
Thus, the Tesla Shanghai Gigafactory is showing great signs. All those long waiting lines will soon be over. So, Chinese customers are likely to be happy with Tesla's progress soon.
What's Happening At The Berlin Gigafactory?
Now coming forward to the Berlin Gigafactory. Tesla has now approached authorities as it wants to start construction on the newly acquired 1 km2 patch of land.
The Berlin factory is still pretty new. However, the recent expansion shows that Tesla is serious about beefing up the production figures. The company is looking at the 1 million mark soon.
How Large Is The Existing Area Of Berlin Gigafactory?
The existing factory covers 300 hectares. As a result, Tesla's recent acquisition of 100 hectares aligns with the company's plans to make the Berlin Gigafactory self-sufficient in terms of producing Tesla vehicles for the European market.
A local German newspaper even went as far as declaring that the expansion work has already been started by Tesla.
i.insider.com
It is worth noting however that the German authorities delayed the production facilities of the Berlin factory earlier as well due to several issues.
It is yet to be seen whether history will repeat itself or this time the authorities will understand the situation and provide timely decisions to start the manufacturing process.
Environmentalists Wreaking Havoc For Austin Texas Gigafactory
Some environmentalists have decided to contact the local authorities in Texas. They are trying to convince the government departments that the recent Tesla project regarding battery cathode material needs to be halted.
They think that this project will cause environmental concerns related to water supply along with the Colorado River.
This is not something new for Tesla as it recently faced a similar issue in the Berlin Gigafactory as well and that too pertained to water problems.
images.livemint.com
The environmental groups in Texas think that Tesla must be bound by law to think about the locals and their environment.
We agree with them because this is not only better for the locals but also for the planet.
Tesla was formed to keep the planet safe. So, it makes complete sense that the company has to be concerned about the environment, before anything else.

Tesla Faces Supply Issues At Gigafactory Shanghai
Tesla is the largest EV manufacturer in the world. This is a big title to have. However, with more power come more responsibilities. That's how the responsibility for manufacturing a substantial number of EVs globally now falls on the shoulders of Tesla. The company has been doing pretty well from its four different Gigafactories but…
Tesla Is Looking To Expand At Gigafactory Berlin
The Tesla Berlin Gigafactory has been in the news for quite some time because it suffered from several restrictions before being opened for production. The factory is back in the news however this time the reason is a bit different. According to reports, Tesla has plans to acquire a new piece of land adjacent to…

After Pinckney's arrival, the French government continued to be hostile to the United States: France determined that it had no need for an American minister on its soil and demanded that Pinckney leave in January 1797.
When South Carolinian Charles Cotesworth Pinckney arrived in France in November 1796 to serve as his young country's minister to France, he immediately found himself embroiled in controversy between the two nations. The French— angered by the 1794 Jay Treaty, which brought improved relations between the United States and Great Britain—had begun to attack American merchant ships. After Pinckney's arrival, the French government continued to be hostile to the United States: France determined that it had no need for an American minister on its soil and demanded that Pinckney leave in January 1797.
When President John Adams learned of the troubles that Pinckney was facing, he appointed two commissioners to join Pinckney in France and attempt to defuse the situation: John Marshall and Elbridge Gerry. They met with the French minister of foreign relations, Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, who was initially cordial to the three men but refused to negotiate with them in any official capacity. Instead, a series of unofficial envoys met with the American representatives. These envoys soon made it clear that the French government expected to be bribed in return for improved relations with the United States. Despite being rebuffed by the Americans, the French envoys persisted, and, in response to another demand for a bribe, Pinckney is claimed to have responded "NO! NO! Not a sixpense!"
Further negotiations were fruitless, and in the United States a firestorm of anger against France broke out when the dispatches from the American negotiators were published (the names of the French envoys were replaced with the letters X, Y, and Z, thus giving the scandal its name). Tensions remained high—in what historians term the "Quasi-War"—until a settlement with France was finally concluded in the Convention of 1800.

Q: Node passport-jwt extracting wrong user from token I am experiencing a strange bug or error in my code.
I have setup an auth api on node server, using passportjs as my middleware and passport-jwt as my strategy.
My passport setup looks like this
//add jwt strategy to passport
var JwtStrategy = require('passport-jwt').Strategy;
var ExtractJwt = require('passport-jwt').ExtractJwt;

var User = require('../models/user');
var configDB = require('../config/database');

module.exports = function(passport) {
    var opts = {};
    opts.secretOrKey = configDB.secret;
    opts.jwtFromRequest = ExtractJwt.fromAuthHeader();
    passport.use(new JwtStrategy(opts, function(jwt_payload, done) {
        //find user with give jwt payload id
        User.findOne({
            id: jwt_payload.id
        }, function(err, user) {
            if(err) {
                return done(err, false);
            }
            if(user) {
                done(null, user);
            } else {
                done(null, false);
            }
        });
    }));
};

then, my protected route:
apiRoutes.get('/account', passport.authenticate('jwt', {session: false}), function(req, res) {

    console.log(req.user.nickname); //returns user1 no matter what JWT I supply with request
    console.log(jwt.decode(getToken(req.headers), configDB.secret)).nickname; //decodes user from token correctly
    ..do other stuff
});

Why does passport sets req.user with the same user everytime, no matter what Token I supply in Authorization header ?
Thanks

A: Solved,
this line caused problem:
User.findOne({
  id: jwt_payload.id
...

both ids should be _id
:)

A: @BlueBallPanda, to answer your question with passport.js JWT authentication strategy I would like to show the structure of JWT_PAYLOAD object that you use in line:
...
passport.use(new JwtStrategy(opts, function(jwt_payload, done) {
...
}));

As a reference example here below is output of JWT_PAYLOAD object, you can see its structure, which can actually easily confuse:
JWT_PAYLOAD:  { '$__':
   { strictMode: true,
     selected: {},
     getters: {},
     _id: '7987930e36333b5634bb5577',
     wasPopulated: false,
     activePaths: { paths: [Object], states: [Object], stateNames: [Array] },
     pathsToScopes: {},
     emitter: { domain: null, _events: {}, _eventsCount: 0, _maxListeners: 0 } },
  isNew: false,
  _doc:
   { __v: 0,
     password: '$2a$10$12GRB1vGbkl3XfGY.r81SuASyK/cfsp85fk92B3N6eSRO6GVy1TSW',
     email: 'example.mail@email.com',
     _id: '7987930e36333b5634bb5577' },
  '$init': true,
  iat: 1502061031,
  exp: 1502071111 }

So to grab the user ID in order to extract from DB on JWT check,
just reference it like that:
 User.findOne({
        id: jwt_payload.$__._id
    }

or like that:
 User.findOne({
        id: jwt_payload.$__._doc._id
    }

Hope this clears out the buggy situation you have experienced.

A: I solve this problem with this function:
var JwtStrategy = require('passport-jwt').Strategy,
ExtractJwt = require('passport-jwt').ExtractJwt;

// load up the user model
var User = require('../models/user');
var config = require('../config/database'); // get db config file

module.exports = function(passport) {
    var opts = {};
    opts.jwtFromRequest = ExtractJwt.fromAuthHeader();
    opts.secretOrKey = config.secret;
    passport.use(new JwtStrategy(opts, function(jwt_payload, done) {
        done(null, jwt_payload._doc);
    }));
};

_doc have the data user.

A: Add the where clause solved my problem:
let user = await User.findOne({ where: { id: JWTPayloads.id } });

The Museum of Contemporary Art (former Maritime Services Board) building is thought to be sited close to the first landing of the First Fleet.
Sydney's first hospital was built to the south-west of this site and by 1802, the Hospital Wharf was constructed in front of the present building. In 1797 Governor Hunter ordered a Government Dockyard to be built in order to repair shipping. The remains of part of the dockyard still exist in the archaeological record under the northern end of the MCA building. Convict masons who worked on construction of the Commissariat Stores carved their initials into each of the sandstone blocks used in the buildings. The demolition of the Commissariat Stores in late 1939, and the concurrent threats to other Macquarie-era buildings in Sydney, provoked considerable public debate, and was instrumental in the formation of the heritage movement in Australia and, in particular, the establishment of the National Trust in 1949. A prominent Circular Quay building, constructed after World War 2, the Museum of Contemporary Art (former MSB building) has aesthetic significance as a fine example of a stripped neoclassical government office building. Its strongly massed use of sandstone and bronze windows and doors and its harbourfront position indicate its original role as headquarters of the important Maritime Services Board.

Q: Hide  if Custom Post Type is empty I am not new to Wordpress but one of my projects drives me insane.
The request is to completely hide a DIV if the Custom Post Type has no content. I found several tutorials to Hide Empty Custom Fields, but this request? Is it even possible?
Below is the SourceCode to have an idea of the actual DIV and the CPT. So basically at the moment there's no post in the CPT but the DIV is displayed. But I want to make it disappear when there's no content and make it appear if there's content.
The current template is a One-Page Wordpress Website.

Q: how to get upper word with conditon I have this code, that prints the with vowels and prints the vowel.
How do I change it to print the word with the vowel upper? I tried and didnt get it.
I have this string, a sentence:
mystring = 'hi my name is Liam my brother is Yali my sensei is Omer my mother is Yaarit and Or is very cute and smart'
names = ''

And this loop:
_sum = 0
Vowels = ["i", "I", "o", "O", "u", "U", "e", "E", "a", "A"]
a = mystring.split(' ')
for word in a:
    for char in word:
        if char in Vowels:
            print(char.upper())
            break
        print(word)
        _sum += 1
print("Vowels: %d" % _sum)

Thank you, appreciate that everyone.

A: vowels = ["a", "e", "i", "o", "u", "A", "E", "I", "O", "U"]
words = "Some Words blah blah blah hmm"
words = words.split()
for word in words:
    if any(vowel in word for vowel in vowels): #checks if there is a vowel in the word
        output = ""
        for char in word:
            if char in vowels:
                output += char.upper() # vowel, so uppercase
            else:
                output += char # not vowel, leave unchanged
        print(output)

Your original code ends in the middle of a word, once it finds a vowel.
And in the future, it's generally best to post sample inputs and desired outputs.
There is another option, which might be faster...
vowels = ["a", "e", "i", "o", "u", "A", "E", "I", "O", "U"]
words = "Some Words blah blah blah hmm"
words = words.split()
for word in words:
    output = ""
    hasVowel = False
    for char in word:
        if char in vowels:
            hasVowel = True
            output+=char.upper()
        else:
            output+=char
    if hasVowel:
        print(output);

MOTHA and Chris E. Vargas: Consciousness Razing
"MOTHA and Chris E. Vargas: Consciousness Razing—The Stonewall Re-Memorialization Project" will be the exhibition and residency presented through the Department of Education and Public Engagement's Fall 2018 R&D Season: Generation.
"MOTHA and Chris E. Vargas: Consciousness Razing—The Stonewall Re-Memorialization Project," 2018. Exhibition view: New Museum, New York. Photo: Maris Hutchinson / EPW Studio
With wry humor and incisive critique, Chris E. Vargas parodies mainstream social and institutional codes to reimagine how queer and trans experiences are represented. Vargas is the founder of the Museum of Transgender Hirstory & Art (MOTHA), a semi-fictional, transient institution that serves as a platform for exhibiting trans history and cultural production. His project takes up the contested legacy of the word history: Vargas notes that "for millennia, the patriarchy has had versions of history; for a few years in the 1970s, some white feminists had herstory; but it hasn't been until now that transgender people have finally had a gender-neutral hirstory all their own."
At the New Museum, Vargas continues work on his project Transgender Hirstory in 99 Objects (2015–ongoing), a visual and material exploration of significant artifacts in the history of transgender communities. Major museums often present one hundred objects from their collections to construct "definitive" historical narratives; in his series, Vargas riffs on this convention, purposefully presenting ninety-nine or fewer objects to emphasize the forever-incomplete task of representing history. A creative and critical exploration of LGBTQI archives, Vargas's project takes the form of exhibitions (of which this is the fifth), publications, and touring performances in which the artist appears as the Executive Director of MOTHA.
This iteration of the project explores Stonewall as a geographically, demographically, and historically contested site. Throughout MOTHA's four-month exhibition, Vargas questions what we think we know about the 1969 Stonewall riots in New York, often cited as a formative event for gay liberation and the modern LGBTQI civil rights movement in the United States. In 2016, to commemorate the riots, President Obama designated the Stonewall Inn and the adjacent Christopher Park a national monument. Yet for years, many of the activists who led the fight against violence and police brutality against queer and trans people—including Sylvia Rivera, Marsha P. Johnson, Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, and many others—were not properly credited in popular accounts of Stonewall. Today, mainstream LGBTQI histories increasingly recognize these figures, even while eliding their more radical demands and their critiques of racism, economic marginalization, and transphobia.
In order to expand how this complex history is memorialized, and to acknowledge the ways it has been manipulated, Vargas has invited an intergenerational group of artists to propose new monuments to the riots. These commemorations—by Chris Bogia, Jibz Cameron, Nicki Green, Martine Gutierrez, Sharon Hayes, Thomas Lanigan-Schmidt, Catherine Lord, Devin N. Morris, D'hana Perry, Keijaun Thomas, Geo Wyeth, and Sarah Zapata—take up Stonewall's legacy through radically different forms and on divergent terms. In the Fifth Floor Gallery, a 1:7 scale model of Christopher Park becomes a platform for wildly speculative public art. Maquettes and plans by the contributing artists are on view during the run of Vargas's exhibition, replacing the George Segal sculptures that have been installed in the park since the early 1990s. The models cycle through the park, variously building, renovating, and razing an iconic landscape. At stake is the place of imagination within revolution, bolstered by Vargas's insistence that rather than simply substituting one object—or one history, memory, or concern—for another, we must hold space for many.
Vargas's residency and resulting collaborative project reflect on the theme of the Department of Education and Public Engagement's Fall 2018 R&D Season: GENERATION. Most obviously, the term generation refers to the ways culture and history are handed down over time via affiliation. Yet the word also conjures ways of making, of creating and bringing forth. With both meanings in mind, Vargas looks to Stonewall as a perpetually unfolding site. Rather than construct a neat historical trajectory, his project contends that attempting to narrate a stable history does the past a disservice. Instead, MOTHA concedes that the act of historicizing is inherently biased and often self-serving, and finds new ways to uncover, recast, and recuperate elements of the past.
The exhibition is curated by Johanna Burton, Keith Haring Director and Curator of Education and Public Engagement, and Sara O'Keeffe, Associate Curator, with Kate Wiener, Curatorial Assistant.
Chris E. Vargas (b. 1978) is a video-maker and interdisciplinary artist originally from Los Angeles and currently based in Bellingham, WA. From 2008 to 2013, Vargas collaborated with Greg Youmans to make the web-based trans/cisgender sitcom Falling In Love . . . with Chris and Greg. With Eric Stanley, he codirected the short film Homotopia (2006) and its feature-length sequel Criminal Queers (2015), which have screened at Palais de Tokyo, Paris; LACE, Los Angeles; Centre for Contemporary Arts Glasgow; the New Museum; and other venues. He is the executive director of the Museum of Transgender Hirstory & Art (MOTHA), a conceptual arts and hirstory institution that highlights trans art's contributions to the cultural and political landscape. Iterations of MOTHA have been presented at the Henry Art Gallery, Seattle (2016); Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (2014); and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco (2013).

For Shakira, the numbers don't lie. On Friday, the international pop sensation took to Facebook to address the momentous occasion that went down in her social media world: 100,000,000 Facebook Likes on her fan page. That's right, not only is the Columbian singer the Queen of the World Cup, she's also the Queen of Facebook. To put that into context, her Facebook Likes represent roughly 8% of the social media site's 1.28 billion monthly active users. While 100 million might not seem like such a big deal, it is when you consider the marketing benefits. Albums, music videos, merchandise, and announcements of performances and The Voice appearances, are all easily promoted through her fan page and inevitably translated into big commercial gains.
So how did Shakira become the most popular person on Facebook? According to the Wall Street Journal, her impressive FB following count comes from a combination of World Cup appearances that have enhanced her international appeal, and her willingness to get personal. The singer often translates posts into different languages and signs them with "Shakira" so people know the message came from her and not her marketing team. To put Shakira's meteoric social media rise into perspective, here are the eight celebrities and franchises who aren't very far from achieving the same milestone.

Public land stewardship programs are very different now than they were 50 years ago. When we had a habitat problem during the early days of conservation, we tended to search for a magical solution. We might, for example, introduce a non-native plant, thinking it would meet the needs of all wild things, or at least the species being managed at the time. Such attempts rarely lived up to expectations, and sometimes caused new problems.
It's a fact that most of our early habitat management decisions on public land usually benefited game animals. That's largely because game restoration was crucial at that time and, unlike today, hunters and anglers paid virtually all the conservation bills.
Game animals remain important in our habitat management programs. However, they share the limelight with a myriad of other plants, animals and natural communities. The natural resource field has changed with the times and learned from our past efforts. Today, our prescription for most habitat problems is to restore natural communities.
Through time and experience we've learned that the native plant and animal communities that historically occurred here are usually best at supporting all of Missouri's native wildlife, including healthy populations of game animals. Native plants and animals have adapted to one another over thousands of years and respond to each other in ways that ensure their mutual survival.
Our effort to re-establish native plant and animal communities is evident at many of the state's conservation areas. When you visit these areas you may see a prairie, savanna or wetland restoration in progress, or one that has been recently restored. These natural communities not only benefit bobwhite quail, white-tailed deer and wild turkey, they also support a rich diversity of species relished by birders, botanists, photographers and naturalists.
We still conduct agricultural operations at some conservation areas. Haying is allowed when it benefits specific native plants, plant communities or wildlife habitat. Cropping helps us manage plant succession and is an important early step in restoring native grasses. In some cases, cropping provides high energy food for migrating waterfowl.
You may see cattle grazing at a few areas. These cattle replace bison, whose grazing formerly helped maintain prairie habitat. We rely on controlled grazing to modify grassland structure in ways that benefit declining grassland birds, including bobwhite quail. We also use prescribed burning on thousands of acres to mimic the periodic natural fires that formerly contributed to the richness and integrity of our native grasslands.
Early Europeans visiting what would become Missouri described a rich world of wild places and native things. From their accounts, we know of the spectacular pine forests and bluestem savannas of the Ozarks, the dark swamps of the Bootheel and the expansive tallgrass prairie of northern and western Missouri.
Our conservation areas provide wonderful opportunities to partly restore this "rich world of wild places and native things." We can manage these areas to re-establish habitats for native species and to protect unique natural communities. As an added benefit, restoring and managing native plant communities results in a wider range of ways that the public can benefit from these areas.
We never lose sight of the fact that conservation areas belong to the people of Missouri and are for their benefit. Conservation areas have always provided room for people to enjoy the outdoors. Now they are doing so much more.
Why not visit a Missouri conservation area to see what's developing on your lands?


With three quarters of the year nearly done (I know, I'm shocked too) 'spring cleaning' might seem like a strange thing to be thinking about. But given the importance and potential of the final portion of the year, we think September is the perfect time to sweep out the cobwebs and get things in order.
Why? Well, September sees us all settling back into normality after the slight weirdness of summer and the silly season. Plus, it's a period of relative calm before the intensity of the holiday season rushes us quickly towards the end of the year. So grab a broom and some woodland animals, because we're going all Snow White.
If it's been a while since you did a full audit of your company website, now is the ideal time. Even if everything was ship-shape the last time you checked, things have a way of becoming unlinked, unresponsive, and generally broken. So take some time to go through every page, checking links and important areas like your home page and contact page in particular. It's likely that in the process you'll spot things that need to be updated and changed too, and probably come up with a few potential improvements (like adding online booking, perhaps?) While you're at it, pass an eye over your social media accounts and make sure things like your profile pictures, contact details, and descriptions are all up to date. You'll thank yourself when the busy season arrives and you're getting more traffic to those places.
While sitting down to do some accounting might not sound like the most fun you can have, this is less about keeping on top of your finances (which we're sure you do anyway) and more about looking at your system holistically. If you find your money matters a huge chore then it might be time to invest in an accounting tool that will take the hard work out of it. There are many excellent, popular tools available for this: Xero, Quickbooks, Sage, and FreeAgent to name a few (not to mention, Appointedd integrates with all of them).
While everyone's got a bit of breathing space (customers included: hello back to school season) why not take the opportunity to put together a survey to get some feedback on what's working and what's not. Doing this now gives you time to address at least some of the improvements before things ramp up, and could mean a more successful next quarter.
It wouldn't be much of a spring clean if everything just slipped back to how it was immediately afterwards, so set aside time in the calendar now to check up on any changes you've made and assess how things are going. Plus, now is the time to make at least a rough plan for how the next few months are going to pan out, including timelines for important tasks like your Christmas marketing or preparing for a new year slump.
Go forth and buff your business until you can see your face in it.
