Certain plans must comply with Treasury regulations, the Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), and even the Taft-Hartley Act. This means that resolving disputes can be very complicated and confusing, which is why having a Louisville employment law attorney to guide you through the process is so valuable.

Collings Parlor 2H T
A vintage-style parlor guitar with a big sound.
From its very beginning, Collings Guitars has taken inspiration from the classic steel-strings built during the Golden Era of American flattops, the 1920s and '30s. Now the company has dipped even further back into history with the introduction of its new Parlor models. We had a chance to check out a Parlor 2H T, generously provided by Gryphon Stringed Instruments, in Palo Alto, California.
With a width of only 12¼ inches across the lower bout, the Parlor's size is about halfway between Martin's size 1 and 2, which were popular in the mid-to-late 1800s. The guitar has a 12-fret neck with a slotted headstock, as well as other vintage-style touches including a pyramid bridge and herringbone purfling. It's constructed with Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides, and all the materials used are of excellent quality.
As part of Collings' relatively new T series, the Parlor 2H T has a nitrocellulose finish that is thinner than the company's standard finish. It is also put together using animal protein glues and is built very lightly—our demo guitar was one of the lightest steel-strings I've ever held. The neck has a modified V shape and relatively wide string spacing, giving it more of a vintage feel than some contemporary necks. Also in accordance with other T series models, the Parlor 2H T includes Collings' vintage-style handmade case. Featuring durable three-ply poplar construction with tough vinyl covering, these cases offer a custom fit and excellent protection.
Playing the Parlor 2H T was tons of fun. With its small dimensions, it is a perfect guitar to play on the couch, and its full and balanced sound makes for a sonically satisfying experience. The guitar's quick response works especially well for playing fingerstyle or even classical material, but it also had enough headroom to sound great for light strumming or flatpicked single notes. It doesn't have the volume or punch of a larger guitar, but in situations where power isn't a concern, the Parlor 2H T offers a delicate, yet surprisingly rich voice that may be just the right thing for the living room or the studio. For players who prefer mahogany back and sides, Collings also offers the Parlor 1H T.
SPECS: Parlor-size steel-string flattop. Solid Sitka spruce top with scalloped X-bracing. Indian rosewood back and sides. Ebony fingerboard and bridge. 24⁷/₁₆-inch scale. 1¾-inch nut width. 2⁵/₁₆-inch string spacing at saddle. Waverly engraved bronze tuning machines. Made in USA. $5,130 street. Collingsguitars.com

Luna Keller shares heartwarming new single, "Midnight Queen"
Posted by Fred Bambridge on April 15, 2020
Luna Keller has recently shared her heartwarming new single, "Midnight Queen" which features British based singer-songwriter Eric Bay. Luna herself is based out of the Spanish town of Chío on the island of Tenerife. With the piano being the main source of instrumentation here the track sounds so fragile and tender with the vocals just adding to the effect that this is a sombre ballad.
The collaboration tells the tragic story of a hurt character that leaves a trail of broken hearts behind. It's a fantastic song with some beautiful vocal harmonies everywhere, the duets between Luna Keller and Eric Bay are superb here with both vocal styles complimenting one another. Speaking about the writing process Luna said that they've never physically met but the song was conceived over Skype calls and email, with her going on to say "Working from home applies to everything now" .
Be sure to head over to their respected social channels to let them know how much this track has touched you - as it's certainly touched me - and don't forget to add it to your playlists. Expect more stunning music from Luna Keller in the coming months.

To play against Pakistan or not?
by Ajay Mardikar October 19, 2021 October 19, 2021
written by Ajay Mardikar October 19, 2021 October 19, 2021
"To play or not to play" is the question.
The issue is being raised on political platforms. Whether Indian cricket team should play against Pakistan or not? On most of the platforms two sides of the coin are tossed. India and Pakistan have not been playing in any bilateral series of any sport, because of strained relations between the two nations.
Pakistan has been training, supporting, and promoting terrorism. The cross-border infiltration of terrorists, continuous exchange of armed scuffles on the border is a regular feature. Frequent disturbance in Kashmir and illegal occupation of part of Kashmir by Pakistan are scars on the heart of every Indian.
Pakistan has been raising the Kashmir issue on an international platform, claiming that it is part of its own country. However, even in Pakistan's documents, it is referred to as PoK, thus accepting its illegal occupation of the region.
India has categorically declined to establish any kind of bilateral activities, including any sport with Pakistan. Cricket being the most popular sport in these two countries, holds greater importance.
However, when it comes to any international tournament, where many other countries are participating besides Pakistan, the issue gets a different dimension.
Various political leaders have been supporting the cause of 'not playing against Pakistan' in the ongoing World T20 World Cup Cricket Tournament. If this is accepted Indian team will have to offer 'Walk Through' to Pakistan in the first round, scheduled for October 24. This will be awarding additional points to Pakistan and losing our own opportunity to score.
Even if this is allowed, the knockout stage could be more difficult. Here such a step would eliminate India from the tournament. Should this be accepted is another major question before all of us.
Almost all the sportspersons, playing or active through various sports bodies, would not accept the proposal of boycott at this stage. So far India has not lost any match against Pakistan in the World Cup. But winning and losing are a part of any game. If Pakistan wins the match, Indian players cannot and should not be labeled as Anti-Nationals.
Indian authorities could have taken the decision well in advance and announced that they will not participate if Pakistan is playing. The issue should not be viewed on a political dimension only.
Can people who are opposing the match, decide not to view the match on television? Would they refrain from celebrating if India wins? This is the situation of 'To be or not to be'.

The Highest Power in Egyptian Mythology
DOUGLAS MATUS
Ancient Egyptian deities represented the phenomena that established natural order, such as astronomical bodies, the seasons, and notions of life and death. A polytheistic belief system, the religion and rituals of ancient Egypt emerged from the shadows of prehistory and maintained influence until the rise of Rome. Over thousands of years, the power structure of the Egyptian pantheon shifted, though three deities received the most veneration.
An Evolving Pantheon
The Sun God
God of Thebes
The Mother Goddess
1 An Evolving Pantheon
The Egyptians did not worship a fixed pantheon of gods, and deities would periodically appear and disappear in relation to the popularity of their cult or influence of their affiliated city. For example, the importance of Ptah, the creator-god, rose with the establishment of his cult center, Memphis, as the capital of the First Dynasty. Egyptian pantheons were called enneads, groupings of interrelated gods with associated creation myths. As political realities in Egypt evolved, most notably due to the rise of Thebes and the entrance of Graeco-Roman culture, the chief ennead underwent alterations, and even total abandonment in the 14th century B.C. reign of Akhenaten.
2 The Sun God
The main ancient Egyptian ennead, the Great Ennead of Heliopolis, featured the sun god, Ra, as its chief deity and source of creation. Ancient Egyptians originally considered Ra an aspect of Horus, a falcon god who assimilated his father, Ptah. Ra achieved a separate identity and prominence as the head of the Egyptian pantheon around the time of the 4th dynasty in the third millennium B.C. From this time forward, pharaohs considered themselves sons of Ra, and derived their judicial authority from Ra's son, Maat. Ra, as the manifestation of the sun and source of all life, served as the progenitor of other gods that derived their authority from him.
3 God of Thebes
Around 1980 B.C., when Egyptian power shifted to Thebes, the Theban cult divinity, Amun, was elevated to the top of the Egyptian pantheon. Amun derived his authority through association with Ra, and acquired the name Amun-Ra. Amun-Ra's solar-based religion spread throughout Egypt and achieved total dominance in the New Kingdom. An exception to this came in the reign of Akhenaten, which lasted from 1353 to 1336 BC. Akhenaten displaced Amun-Ra, along with the entire Egyptian pantheon, and elevated the god Aten to sole supremacy. To celebrate his new monotheistic religion, Akhenaten transferred the Egyptian capital from Thebes to Amarna. Akhenaten's death initiated violent reprisals against the new religion, and Amun-Ra was restored to his former prominence.
4 The Mother Goddess
Isis, the goddess of magic and fertility, originated as an obscure local deity whose influence expanded from the pre-dynastic era onward. In the New Kingdom, Isis achieved broad popularity, which culminated in her affiliation with the goddess Hathor and identification as mother of Horus. As Isis-Hathor, Isis became the chief mother-goddess and embodiment of kingship. Isis' popularity spread throughout the Graeco-Roman world, and her worship survived into late antiquity. Cults of Isis proliferated in the first centuries of the Common Era, when depictions of Isis nursing Horus/Ra had a supposed influence on the iconography of early Christianity.

One day after the FBI took the extraordinary action of publicly rebuking the White House and Republicans for peddling a partisan report alleging misdeeds by prosecutors targeting the White House, former CIA Director John Brennan weighed in with another dose of denunciation.
"I had many fights with Congressional Dems over the years on national security matters," Brennan said Thursday. "But I never witnessed the type of reckless partisan behavior I am now seeing from Nunes and House Republicans. Absence of moral and ethical leadership in WH is fueling this government crisis."
Indeed, the GOP's careless pursuit is drawing condemnations from all quarters. Intelligence veterans in particular are blasting the Republican scheme as a dangerous maneuver that not only rips up decades of protocol, but establishes an unsafe precedent for the future where classified information is recklessly released to the public solely in the name of setting political scores.
As Brennan, who spent years briefing President Barack Obama everyday on national security matters, notes, political battles over intelligence are as old as the CIA and the FBI themselves. What's so unusual here is the GOP's refusal to cooperate with the intel community before releasing its secret, gotcha report that allegedly documents FBI malfeasance during the Russia investigation.
Republicans have erased all congressional process norms in terms of trying to get the dubious report released.
Seen strictly as a partisan maneuver designed to damage special counsel Robert Mueller, the botched GOP memo allegedly depicts the FBI as overstepping its bounds in terms of investigating possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian operatives in 2016.
On Tuesday, Trump's appointed FBI Director Christopher Wray OK'd a release in which the bureau stressed, "As expressed during our initial review, we have grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo's accuracy."
That came one week after Trump's own Department of Justice sent out a warning signal about the GOP's smear campaign.
It "would be extraordinarily reckless for the Committee to disclose such information publicly without giving the Department and the FBI the opportunity to review the memorandum," the DOJ stressed.
Meanwhile, the walls continue to crumble around the White House as the Russia and obstruction of justice scandal deepens. That means pressure is intensifying on the Republicans to come up with a plan to protect the president.
For now, the party's desperation revolves around essentially trying to destroy the reputation of the FBI. The GOP appears determined to burn that village down in order to try to save the White House.

Focal person urges traditional leaders to check Valentine's Day immorality
Saltpond (C/R), Feb. 10, GNA - The Mfantseman District HIV/AIDS Focal Person, Mr Jonathan Benefo, has appealed to traditional authorities to monitor Valentine's Day activities in their communities with the view to checking the immorality that a section of the youth has associated with it in recent times.
He said this was necessary so as not to derail both national and individual efforts being made to combat the spread of HIV/AIDS in the country.
Mr Benefo made the appeal at a workshop on HIV/AIDS organised by the District AIDS Committee for public and civil servants at Saltpond on Wednesday.
The Focal Person said celebration of Valentine's Day had been misconstrued as a day for lovemaking, a situation, which was hampering the campaign against the spread of HIV/AIDS.
Mr Benefo said the District AIDS Committee had set aside 98 million cedis to assist people living with the disease to go into income-generating ventures to make them self-supporting. Miss Christine Antoh, a Principal community Health Nurse, and Mr Reemans Osei-Bonsu, Mfantseman District School Health Education Programme (SHEP) Co-ordinator, took the participants through the mode of infection, symptoms, and how to care for people living with it. Miss Antoh appealed to parents to encourage their children to undergo voluntary counselling and testing before marriage. Nana Baah IV, Nyimfahene of Nkusukum Traditional Area, urged the participants to form work place AIDS committees to handle issues on the disease.

President Snyder elected vice chair of national organization on workforce needs
Case Western Reserve University President Barbara R. Snyder has been elected vice chair of the Business-Higher Education Forum (BHEF), the nation's oldest organization dedicated to addressing the country's most pressing academic and workforce challenges.
"I am honored to have this opportunity to work with leaders committed to collaboration to advance academic programs and economic prosperity," President Snyder said. "BHEF's unique combination of members provides a diversity of perspectives, experiences and insights vital to developing solutions that make measurable, meaningful progress on such critical challenges as college access and the engagement of students in STEM-related fields."
The coalition includes more than 50 presidents and chief executives of academic institutions and Fortune 500 companies. Board leadership alternates annually between a representative from business and one from higher education. The chair for 2012-13 is Wes Bush, chairman, CEO and president of Northrop Grumman. Snyder's election as vice chair this year means she will serve as chair in 2013-14. Previous chairs include William "Brit" Kirwan, chancellor of the University System of Maryland; Edward B. Rust Jr., chairman of the board and CEO of State Farm Mutual; David J. Skorton, president of Cornell University; William H. Swanson, chairman and CEO of Raytheon; and Mark S. Wrighton, chancellor, Washington University in St. Louis.
BHEF works to enhance the alignment of education efforts with the needs of America's workforce through regional initiatives and national research and advocacy. Place-based efforts can provide information and insight about how to attract students into areas of greatest job demand and, in turn, provide them the knowledge and skills required for such fields as science, technology, engineering, and math—also known as STEM disciplines. Business leaders can provide perspective regarding existing and looming needs, and also those academic efforts through partnerships with universities that have expertise in relevant areas.
Earlier this month, BHEF's leaders announced a dozen regional partnerships between institutions of higher education and industry that address recommendations made by the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST). By focusing on strengthening the STEM undergraduate experiences specifically during the first two years of college, BHEF and its members aim to increase dramatically the number of STEM graduates, while teaching them the critical 21st century skills they will need upon entry to the workforce.
Brian Fitzgerald, CEO of BHEF, remarked: "These regional projects are models of industry and higher education collaboration to promote education innovation to address our nation's STEM workforce challenges, exemplified by Case Western Reserve's leadership in launching two projects in Ohio focusing on the under-represented minority students, and the development of new models for retaining STEM students during their first year of college. As BHEF's vice chair, we are fortunate to have President Snyder's energy and visionary leadership as we launch this critical effort to resolve the challenges facing America's workforce."
The forum highlighted two proposals for partnerships that faculty at Case Western Reserve are developing with area organizations. One aims to engage students considering careers in materials engineering through a course that includes extensive hands-on problem-solving and potential opportunities for internships and co-operative experiences at a local company. The other focuses on identifying promising community college students interested in earning bachelor's degrees in computer science; it also may offer learning opportunities through another Northeast Ohio corporation.
"Our early conversations with faculty and local businesses have spurred great creativity and enthusiasm," President Snyder said. "We look forward to seeing how these two proposals unfold—as well as several others that we hope will follow."

El Palacio de los Kanes de Shaki (en azerí: Şəki xanlarının sarayı) se localiza en Shaki, Azerbaiyán, fue residencia de verano de los Kanes de Shaki. Cuenta con azulejos decorativos, fuentes y varias ventanas de vidrios de colores. El exterior está decorado con azul oscuro, los azulejos de color turquesa y ocre con patrones geométricos y los murales fueron pintados con témpera y se inspiran en la obra de Nizami Ganjavi.

Historia
El Palacio de los Kanes fue construido en 1797 por Muhammed Hasan Khan. El palacio tenía la intención de albergar a los Khans que estaban a cargo del control de Sheki , como virreyes del gobernante Zand y más tarde dinastías persas Qajar en algún lugar entre 1750 hasta el momento en que estos territorios fueron anexados por el Imperio ruso por tratado de Gulistán en 1813.

Junto con su piscina y los árboles, la residencia de verano es la única estructura que queda del complejo palaciego más grande dentro de la «fortaleza», que antes incluía un palacio de invierno, las residencias de la familia del Kan y sirvientes. Fue construido en 1797 por Muhammad Hasan Kan y restaurado entre 1952 y 1967 por un equipo dirigido por el arquitecto Niyazi Rzayev.

Patrimonio Mundial
El Comité del Patrimonio Mundial inscribió el 7 de julio de 2019 Centro histórico de Sheki y El Palacio del Kan de Azerbaiyán en la Lista del Patrimonio Mundial.

I'm going to catch the protesters in the middle of the night... Parade of armored vehicles in China
Protests against the strong COVID-19 quarantine policy are taking place all over China. In the midst of this, an armored vehicle is witnessed out of nowhere in the middle of the city, raising various suspicions.
Protests against the strong COVID-19 quarantine policy are taking place all over China.
In the midst of this, an armored vehicle is witnessed out of nowhere in the middle of the city, raising various suspicions.
On the 29th of last month, a picture of an armored vehicle moving in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, China was posted on social media.
The reason why the armored vehicles appeared in the middle of the city was not confirmed, but local residents assumed that the armored vehicles were moving to Shanghai in the southeast of Xuzhou.
Some argued that it was just a simple training exercise, but concerns and anxiety are pouring out that the Chinese government has started to suppress the protesters by force.
In particular, in Shanghai, which is presumed to be the destination, on the 27th of last month, citizens held a large-scale protest protest criticizing the zero corona policy.
Chinese authorities are sticking to a hard-line response to the first large-scale protests since the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.

December 27th, 2022 NHL Betting Tips
Written by Scott on Tuesday, December 27th, 2022
Hope everyone had a good Christmas where you got what you wanted and were able to pig out on the Christmas meal. I got an Yzerman and Lemieux jersey to add to my collection and some new slippers.
The World Juniors kicked off yesterday. Canada has some work to do as they didn't look very good in their loss to the Czechs. The U.S won their game against Latvia.
Well after a couple days off we are right back in the mix with 12 games scheduled. The odds for quite a few of the games are unplayable but let's have a look.
Blackhawks vs Hurricanes
This game has the Canes the heavy favorites. If we were to take the Canes it would have to be -2.5.
The Canes have won 8 in a row and are at home where they have gone 10-3-1. But taking them to win by 3 goals is not something I'm doing.
Capitals vs Rangers
Should be a good game between the 4th and 5th place teams in the Metro.
The Caps have won 4 straight and are 9-1 over last 10 but Carlson took a hard shot to the face in the last game and will miss some time. He joins a long list of injuries for the Caps with Wilson, Backstrom, Hagelin, Brown and Oshie all hurt.
The Rangers are 8-2 over last 10. They are at home where they have gone 8-6-4.
The Rangers are favored here and we would need to take them in regulation to get any value. With Carlson now out it would seem like the Rangers can win this game but they are a tricky team to try and predict so I have to skip.
Bruins vs Senators
Any time the Bruins play they are going to be favored.
The Bruins have won their last 4 games and are 7-1-2 in last 10. The Sens are on a 3 game losing skid and have gone 5-3-2 over last 10.
These teams played at the start of the season and the Sens won 7-5.
The Bruins are better than the Sens in all major stats. They score the 2nd most per game and allowing the fewest in the league.
I'm a little nervous going with regulation as the Bruins are on the road but they are a strong team and will be looking for revenge
Bruins win in regulation
Ontario: 1.86 Odds at Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv
Rest of Canada: 1.86 Odds at Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv
USA: -130 Odds at BetOnline.
Everyone Else: 1.86 Odds at Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv
(Odds correct as of 2022/12/27 10:15:41 AM EST but are subject to change.)
Sabres vs Jackets
The Sabres are on a 4 game win streak and there was some strong teams they have beat with the Avs and Knights 2 of them.
The Jackets are bad right now. They have lost their last 6 games, are 2-8 over last 10 and are tied with the Ducks for 2nd last place in the league.
The Sabres should win this game but the odds make it have to be a regulation play and they are on the road so I don't have confidence in them like I do with the Bruins.
This game has been postponed.
Penguins vs Islanders
The Penguins lost their last game but are 8-1-1 over last 10. The Isles won their last game but are 4-4-2 over last 10.
Looking at the Over/Under and it's 5.5 which is decent. 2 of the Penguins last 4 went over that and 3 of the Isles last 4 did too.
With both teams coming off the Christmas break they should be ready to get going here.
Over 5.5 incl OT/SO
Ontario: 1.80 Odds at Sports Interaction (SIA)
Rest of Canada: 1.80 Odds at Sports Interaction (SIA)
Leafs vs Blues
The Leafs won their last 2 and the Blues dropped their last 2.
The Blues are 16-16-2 this season which isn't where they expected this season at the Christmas break.
The Leafs are favored here and would need to be a regulation play. Their road record is 8-5-3 and it's those 3 losses in overtime that has me put off of this.
Stars vs Predators
The Stars are in 1st place in the Central and have gone 6-3-1 in last 10. On the road they have gone 10-5-3.
The Preds have gone 3-4-3 over last 10 and are at home where they have gone 8-5-3 and are in 6th in the Central
They have played twice so far at the beginning of the season and the Stars won both by a combined 9-2 score.
I like the Stars chances here but it's the Preds and they are a pain in the ass to try and predict. They have played 32 games this season and 10 of them needed extra time.
Wild vs Jets
The Jets limped into the Christmas break losing their last 2 games and going 5-5. The Wild lost their last game but have gone 7-3 over last 10.
The played once and the Wild won 6-1 in Minnesota.
Both teams have had good seasons and are only separated by 3 points in the standings.
The Wild are favored but this should be a good game and I am going to skip it as it could go either way.
Avalanche vs Coyotes
The Avs have won their last 4 games but 3 of them were in OT. The games that needed OT weren't exactly strong teams with the Habs, Preds and Isles all needing extra time.
The Coyotes are 4-5-1 over last 10 and 2 of their last 3 games needed overtime.
The Avs are favourites here and we would need to take them -1.5 and with their recent results it's an easy pass for me especially with all of their injured players.
Oilers vs Flames
Battle of Alberta games are always fun to watch. You can throw out all stats when these teams meet.
The Oilers are in 5th in the Pacific and are 4-4-2 over last 10. The have went over in their last 6 games.
The Flames are in 4th in the Pacific and are 4-2-4 over last 10. They have gone over in 7 of their last 10 games.
The goal totals over the last 10 times they played are high with only 3 exceptions; 5, 7, 9, 8, 5, 8, 15, 14, 4 and 8.
With these teams so close in the standings I think it will be a great game.
Sharks vs Canucks
Nothing from this game I like so an easy skip for me.
Knights vs Kings
Big game here. The Knights are in 1st place in the Pacific with 49 points, the Kings are in 2nd with 44.
The Kings could gain some valuable points with a regulation win. But the Knights have been a good team so far this year and have a road record of 14-2-1. The Kings at home have gone 10-5-2.
These teams played in the season opener and the Knights won 4-3.
This is a tough game to call and the odds are a coin toss so I'm staying away from it.

Book review: 'The Thrifty Cookbook' by Kate Colquhoun
March 25, 2009 - 15:10 GMT hellomagazine.com Book review: 'The Thrifty Cookbook' by Kate Colquhoun
In her new book Kate Colquhoun - the author of Taste, a fascinating look at Britain through its food – turns her attention to the very timely topic of leftovers. It's a subject which could easily be dry and unappealing, but Kate's detailed research and great prose ensures The Thrifty Cookbook is an animated and interesting read.
Simple, honest and delicious recipes and suggestions are presented in a refreshingly unpretentious voice.
An 'ideas' book as well as a recipe book, it includes hints such as 'add a splash of this here' and 'use a last rasher of bacon for this'. There are great tips for using up fruit and veg that have hung around slightly too long, sensible stuff that will come in handy for everyone buying for a family or a crowd. Great basic recipes also help out with suggestions as to what to do if you've made meringues and have egg yolks leftover, or you've cooked too much pasta.
The layout of the book is as pure as straightforward as its contents. The book's layout is as straightforward as its contents, with a sole quibble being its lack of pictures. This goes with the frugal topic, though, and leftovers, while tasty, aren't always the prettiest of subjects.

    }
}

It does print the username, the amount and the rating but then when i print the array itself it is giving me a []. So it doens't append. Also the for each loop is empty so that also means that the array is empty
and nothing is appended
Does anyone know what I do wrong?

A: Loading data in a View like that is a dangerous practice and it'll get reset/reloaded any time that view is re-rendered (or even re-inited in this case).
Instead, move your code that loads the data to an ObservableObject:

struct Outfit:Identifiable {
    var id = UUID()
    var user: String
    var amount: Double
    var rating: Double
}

class Loader : ObservableObject {
    private var db = Firestore.firestore()
    private var user = Auth.auth().currentUser
    @Published var outfitcards = [Outfit]()

    func loadcards () {
        db.collection("rating").whereField("user", isNotEqualTo: user?.uid ?? "Error")
            .getDocuments() { (querySnapshot, err) in
                if let err = err {
                    print("Error getting documents: \(err.localizedDescription)")
                } else {
                    for document in querySnapshot!.documents {
                        let cuser = document.get("user") as! String
                        let camount = document.get("amount") as! Double
                        let crating = document.get("rating") as! Double
                        print("user=\(cuser) amount=\(camount) crating=\(crating)")
                        self.outfitcards.append(Outfit(user: cuser, amount: camount, rating: crating))
                    }
                    print(self.outfitcards)
                }
            }
    }
}

struct Rate: View {
    @StateObject var loader = Loader()
    @State private var cards = [1, 2, 3]
    @State private var offset = [CGSize.zero, CGSize.zero]

    var body: some View {
        GeometryReader { frame in
            ZStack{
                VStack {
                    Text("outfit")
                        .font(.largeTitle)
                        .padding()
                    ZStack {
                        Text("No cards to show")
                            .frame(width: frame.size.width * 0.6, height: frame.size.width * 1.6)

                        HStack {
                            Image(systemName: "record.circle.fill")
                                .foregroundColor(.red)
                            Spacer()
                            Image(systemName: "record.circle.fill")
                                .foregroundColor(.green)
                        }
                        ForEach(loader.outfitcards) { index in
                            Text(index.user)
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }.onAppear {
            loader.loadcards()
        }
    }
}

Now, the loader is responsible for making the database call. It updates a @Published property, which the View observes.
Note that I changed the capitalization of a few things (Rate, Outfit). In Swift, the common practice is to capitalize types (classes/structs/enums) and start variable names with lowercase letters.
Also probably worth noting that the way that you're casting the data from firebase (with as!) is dangerous and can crash your program if the data isn't in the format you expect. Better to use optional binding (let user = document.get("user") as? String)

A: Your issue is there you are updating @State value in initializing View, which you are doing in Wrong way, do like this onAppear:
    struct rate: View {
private var db = Firestore.firestore()
@State var user = Auth.auth().currentUser
@State private var outfitcards = [outfit]()
@State private var cards = [1, 2, 3]
@State private var offset = [CGSize.zero, CGSize.zero]

var body: some View {
    GeometryReader { frame in
        ZStack{
            VStack {
                Text("outfit")
                    .font(.largeTitle)
                    .padding()

                ZStack {
                    Text("No cards to show")
                        .frame(width: frame.size.width * 0.6, height: frame.size.width * 1.6)

                    HStack {
                        Image(systemName: "record.circle.fill")
                            .foregroundColor(.red)
                        Spacer()
                        Image(systemName: "record.circle.fill")
                            .foregroundColor(.green)

                    }

                    ForEach(outfitcards) { index in
                        Text(index.user)
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
    .onAppear() { loadcards() }  // <<: Here
}
func loadcards () {
    db.collection("rating").whereField("user", isNotEqualTo: user?.uid ?? "Error")
        .getDocuments() { (querySnapshot, err) in
            if let err = err {
                print("Error getting documents: \(err.localizedDescription)")
            } else {
                for document in querySnapshot!.documents {
                   let cuser = document.get("user") as! String
                    let camount = document.get("amount") as! Double
                   let crating = document.get("rating") as! Double
                    print("user=\(cuser) amount=\(camount) crating=\(crating)")
                    outfitcards.append(outfit(user: cuser, amount: camount, rating: crating))
                }
                print(outfitcards)
            }
         }
    }

Q: geocode failed with status REQUEST_DENIED, location = "Australia" using ggmap in R I'm trying to do a density map in Australia using postcodes and net value to see where customers are coming from for an airport carpark (University Project)
I have setup an API key for google maps. I am using ggmap but keep getting request denied error.
Source : https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=Gold%20Coast&zoom=12&size=640x640&scale=2&maptype=terrain&key=xxx
Source : https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=Gold%20Coast&key=xxx
Error in data.frame(ll.lat = ll[1], ll.lon = ll[2], ur.lat = ur[1], ur.lon = ur[2]) :
  arguments imply differing number of rows: 0, 1
In addition: Warning message:
geocode failed with status REQUEST_DENIED, location = "Australia"

I have tried several methods of retrieving the map data, however keep getting same error.
Please help :) Any advice is appreciated! Also if there are suggestions for a better way of doing this, I'm all ears :)
here is code used:
if(!requireNamespace("devtools")) install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("dkahle/ggmap", ref = "tidyup")
library("ggmap", lib.loc="C:/Program Files/Microsoft/R Open/R-3.5.0/library")

key <- register_google(key = "###API KEY###")

    p <- ggmap(get_googlemap(center = "Australia", source = 'google',
                             zoom = 11, scale = 2,
                             maptype ='terrain',
                             color = 'color'))
    p + geom_point(aes(x = hmapf$Postcode, y = hmapf$`Net Value`,  colour = "Pink"), data = hmapf, size = 0.5) +
      theme(legend.position="bottom"); p

I also tried another method:
Australia <- get_map(location="Australia", zoom=3, maptype="terrain")

gg <- ggmap(Australia, extent="normal")
gg <- gg + geom_point(data=pop, aes(x=LONG, y=LAT, color=Density))
gg <- gg + scale_color_viridis()
gg <- gg + theme_map()
gg <- gg + theme(legend.position="none")
gg

I am not having any luck, same error for both.
Thanks :)

A:
geocode failed with status REQUEST_DENIED, location = "XXX"

You have enabled your Google Maps API for static map requests, but not for geocoding. To prove that try geocode("Australia", output = "all") and you will get the error
$`error_message`
[1] "This API project is not authorized to use this API."

$results
list()

$`status`
[1] "REQUEST_DENIED"

This paper examines the role of a research network that involves design schools and researchers from a wide variety of disciplines. The C-SAN Futures network addressed the role that global exchanges within design education and research networks can play in addressing challenges related to climate change. The network organized researcher and student exchanges, events, collaboration with local communities and the building of a digital platform to support knowledge exchange and communication. Through these actions, the network highlights the importance of a new kind of dialogue and new approaches to design research and education that underline possible futures and an approach to sustainability based on an understanding humanity as a holistic ecology. The paper shows how the network has played a key role in meaningful exchanges between design students and teachers, and given participants access to new experiences, perspectives and strategies for addressing climate change, sustainability and resource dilemmas.


Last year's Kickstarter campaign to fund Cryptozoic's Ghostbusters board game was one of the biggest crowdfunding successes in recent memory, racking up over 1.5 million dollars from backers hungry for tabletop Ghostbusting action. With numbers like that, it's no surprise that they'd want to follow it up, and today, Cryptozoic announced plans to do just that with Ghostbusters II, a sequel to the first game that's set to launch its own campaign in April.
While it's safe to assume that the game will follow the same scenario-based campaign style as its predecessor, it does raise one important question: Just what the heck do they have left to do?
The success of the original Ghostbusters game Kickstarter --- which I backed, and which resulted in a game that I've genuinely enjoyed playing --- meant that Cryptozoic went all out in providing extras for the first one. Not only does it feature the original movie Ghostbusters, but there's an entire roster of extra playable characters thrown in, too, including comic book originals Kyle Griffin, Melanie Ortiz and Ron Alexander, as well as the 2009 video game's Rookie and, of course, Janine Melnitz as a Ghostbuster.
It was pretty heavy on villains, too, bringing in characters from the movies and the Real Ghostbusters cartoon series. They even threw a Walter Peck figure in there for good measure! With all that in the first game, it'll be interesting to see what Cryptozoic managed to come up with for the second.
The obvious answer, though, is right there in the title. According to the press release, this game is drawing pretty heavily from its namesake, 1989's Ghostbusters II, with new mechanics involving Mood Slime. Since Vigo the Carpathian was one of the most notable absences from the original game's roster of bad guys --- or bad ghouls, I guess --- it makes sense to assume that he'll finally be making an appearance in this one.
The Kickstarter campaign for Ghostbusters II: The Board Game is set to launch in April.

In-building wideband multipath characteristics at 2.5 & 60 GHz
Christopher R. Anderson, Theodore S. Rappaport, Kyung Bae, Alex Verstak, Naren Ramakrishnan, William H. Tranter, Clifford A. Shaffer, Layne T. Watson
This paper contains measured data for 2.5 & 60 GHz in-building partition loss. Path loss measurements were recorded using a broadband sliding correlator channel sounder which recorded over 39,000 Power Delay Profiles (PDPs) in 22 separate locations in a modern office building. Transmitters and receivers were separated by distances ranging from 3.5 to 27.4 meters, and were separated by a variety of obstructions, in order to emulate future single-cell-per-room wireless networks. These measurements may aid in the development of future in-building wireless networks in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz and 60 GHz bands.

Business 354 seemed just like any other class at Cosumnes River College as conversations hummed, punctuated by occasional laughter until computer information science Professor Markus Geissler indicated that class was ready to begin and the room fell quiet.
Enactus is an international non-profit organization that can be found in 39 countries with 62,000 student members.
Each year Enactus teams present their projects in various levels of competition. Last year CRC Enactus won a Regional Championship and had the opportunity to compete in the National Exposition in Kansas City, Mo.
CRC Enactus is not necessarily a business club nor is it all about the competition. It's about making a difference.
How does this happen, you may ask yourself.
CRC Enactus is involved in multiple projects this semester including partnering with the Elk Grove Food Bank, which serves 36,000 meals per month, Geissler said. They are currently working on setting up a canned food drive to benefit the food bank.
Their newest project they are involved in this semester is the Grace House, said Bill Salsbury, president and chief executive officer of CRC Enactus.
Salsbury said that the Grace House helps the homeless transition to a job and to having a home.
Gage Keifer, 21, vice president and chief operating officer of CRC Enactus agreed.
"The Grace House is entrepreneurship at its finest," Keifer said.
If entrepreneurship or business is not your forte, you can still be a successful part of Enactus.
Keifer said Enactus needs people with a wide range of skill sets, from public speaking to the use of technology.
"It's beneficial for anybody that feels an interest and a deep devotion to their community and wanting to help," Keifer said.
