4 Immensely Popular Card Games
From Kashmir to Goa, no matter where you travel, you will find people playing one card game or another as part of their tradition and social life. Not only do online card games connect a country as vast as India, they also help people bond and grow socially, keeping their traditions alive and kicking.
There are some card games that not only enjoy immense popularity but have also become an essential part of our tradition and lifestyle. Let's take a look at some popular card games that most Indians play on a regular basis:
Rummy is a game that involves arranging same-suit cards in sequences and same-rank cards of different suits in sets. The aim of this game is to create sequences of three or more cards of the same suit and sets of three or four cards of the same rank but different suits. However, sets are optional and you can also arrange all your cards in sequences. It is one of the most popular card games online.
Some scholars, such as David Parlett, believe that the game of Rummy has been derived from the Mexican game of Conquian. Interestingly, Conquian itself was derived from a Chinese game called Khanhoo. The basic principle of Rummy, i.e. drawing and discarding cards, appeared in the 19th century in Chinese card games.
The online card game of Rummy is incredibly popular with Indians and has become an important part of family gatherings and festive celebrations. It is loved so much in India that you find people playing the game even on the night of Diwali, which is India's biggest festival. These days the game can be played online and has emerged as one of the popular card games online where players can participate in free and cash games and tournaments and win whopping big cash prizes too, which has made the game even more popular than it already was.
The FreeCell card game comes standard on every Windows PC, and the game is very popular with people who are fans of card games. It is a solitaire card game played with a standard 52-card deck. However, the game is different from other solitaire games in that in FreeCell there are rarely any deals that cannot be solved. Moreover, all the cards are dealt face up.
The game has its roots in a game called Eight Off, which has a lot of similarities with FreeCell. However, some people argue that the origin of FreeCell dates back further than 1945 and it is inspired by a game called Napolean at St. Helena.
The objective of the FreeCell card game is very simple: you have to arrange all the cards in your hand in foundations. A foundation is an order in which the cards need to be arranged.
Every foundation has one suit, and the cards have to be in the following order in each one of them:
Ace>2>3>4>5>6>7>8>9>10>Jack>Queen>King.
Every move that you make in a game of FreeCell is accounted for, and the system tracks the number of moves you make to finish a game. It helps you track your performance and beat your previous best score.
Online card games that fall in the category of solitaire games include Peg Solitaire and Mahjong Solitaire. Solitaire games are immensely popular as they can be played by people alone. There is also a specific game called Solitaire. The game comes standard on PCs. You need to form sequences to win this card game online.
Solitaire games are included in the genre of puzzle-based card games, so there are no specific moves in Solitaire that will win you every game, as each time the layout of the cards is different from the previous game.
In a game of Solitaire, there are tableau piles, numbered 1-7, with the top card on the tableau always facing up and the cards below that facing down so that their values aren't visible to the player. All the cards that remain once the tableau has been set are placed in the stock face down, thereby starting the game with empty foundations.
Solitaire is similar to Freecell as the objective of Solitaire is also to arrange all the cards in foundations.
In Solitaire too, you need to arrange the cards in the following order:
Hearts is an evasion game played by 4 players. The game is often referred to as Black Lady, Black Maria, Black Widow or Slippery Bitch, and you can also play Hearts online free.
Hearts belongs to the family of trick-taking card games like Whist, Bridge and Spades. However, Hearts is different from Bridge and Spades in that the objective of Hearts is to avoid certain penalty cards. The game of Hearts originated from a game called Reversis, which was very popular in Spain back in the 1750s.
Hearts is one of the most popular card games across online gaming sites. The game owes its popularity to Microsoft to a great extent, which started selling Windows PCs with the pre-installed game of Hearts in the 1990s. Today you can play Hearts online free on a lot of gaming platforms.
Call Bridge or Call Break, also called the Bridge card game, is a game of tricks that enjoys huge popularity in India, Bangladesh, and Nepal. The Call Brize card game is related to the American game of Spades. However, the rules for the game vary greatly from place to place. You can play online Call Bridge card game free or with real money.
The game is normally played by 4 people using a standard 52-card pack. In a typical online Call Bridge game, the lead is taken by the player who is to the right of the dealer. Dealing and playing cards takes place counter-clockwise.
The rules of the Bridge card game are simple: the cards of each suit rank from high to low A-K-Q-J-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2. Spades are permanent trumps: any card of Spades beats any card of any other suit.
If you love the card game, you can play the Bridge card game online free with players from around the world, in the comfort of your home.

Get the most interesting and important stories from the University of Pittsburgh.
The U.S. Presidential Scholar is already exploring research opportunities and taking on leadership roles.
Richard Su Fang was in an AP Psychology class when he learned he would be a 2021 U.S. Presidential Scholar.
While studying for a test at his Newtown, Pennsylvania, high school, he received an email notification on his cell phone that caused him to "low key freak out," he said. Fang quickly excused himself so he could inform his family and a teacher who'd provided a glowing recommendation.
As a member of the 57th class of scholars, Fang joined a group of 161 students of the nation's most distinguished graduating high school seniors. The program, established in 1964, is one of the country's highest honors for graduates.
"It's cool to be recognized," said Fang, who, along with Catherine Cavanaugh, is one of two Presidential Scholars currently attending Pitt. Both students are in the University Honors College (UHC) and were featured in a video shared by the Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona.
"To be selected as a Presidential Scholar is an incredible accomplishment and a very rare honor," said Nicola Foote, dean of the Honors College. "Richard's outstanding work since he joined the UHC highlights exactly why he was chosen for this recognition. As a first-term honors student, he has worked to become involved in research and leadership at the highest level and is already preparing for his first academic conference. Richard is an exceptional young scholar, and I can't wait to see what he achieves on the rest of his Pitt journey."
Fang, a first-year biology student in the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences, is the kind of person who maintains momentum in all things academic, research and extracurricular.
"I don't like to be idle," said Fang, who's on the pre-med path. "Keeping myself busy with things I'm passionate about really helps. Yes, I worked hard to get this scholarship, but I must keep at it; this isn't the end. I want to have a continuous upward trajectory."
In high school, Fang was senior class vice president and captain of the tennis and debate teams. He also participated in volunteer opportunities, including spending a summer at Penn Medicine's interventional radiology department, where he assisted nurses on a patient ward and transported patients around Pennsylvania Hospital. This experience and another with the Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center have set him on the path to medicine.
So, Fang came to Pitt confident in his career path and ready to take advantage of the University's cultural, academic and research offerings.
"The skills I learned and the education I received at High School North were excellent and honestly prepared me for college," he said. But his hometown was "very typical white America suburbs." His parents worked to keep him connected to Newtown's small but unified Asian community — a task he's continuing for himself at Pitt.
This September's Mid-Autumn Festival, hosted by the University's Asian Studies Center and Global Hub, provided him and his floor mates an opportunity to explore Chinese, Taiwanese and Hong Kong cultures.
"I'm good friends with everybody on my floor, which is mostly white, meaning they didn't know a ton about the festival," said Fang, who celebrated by attending performances in the William Pitt Union and making homemade dumplings with friends. His involvement with the Asian Student Alliance and the Chinese American School Association have also helped him form friendships and cultural ties.
"It's cool to have all these other people on campus to share this with who understand the culture," said Fang.
In addition to exploring Pitt's cultural offerings, Fang is taking on leadership roles. He recently joined the Student Government Board's First Year Council, a group that helps members develop leadership skills and immerse themselves in projects important to campus.
He's also exploring research opportunities.
"I like helping people and view research as a means of helping a wide scope of people versus a more individualized approach," said Fang. Still, he values patient interaction and aims to find a way to incorporate "that bench to bedside research approach in clinical work."
One event he's looking forward to is the 2022 ACCelerate Creativity and Innovation Festival in Washington, D.C. Zuzana Swigonova, a biological sciences lecturer and early mentor, invited Fang to attend.
"She does work with 3D printing for things like proteins and DNA molecules for visualization purposes for class-based projects that enable people to see and better understand them," said Fang.
He's also looking for more opportunities to work with professors on lab-based projects.
"I have the chance to engage with remarkable people here," Fang said.

Add State and Local Incentives to the 30% Federal Tax Credit
Learn about solar incentives and solar rebates. Find out what is available to you through federal, state and local programs, as well as local utilities.
State and Local Solar Panel Rebates
Combining the Federal tax credit with state incentives you qualify for may significantly reduce the cost of your solar PV system.
Read more good news about these programs and important tips on qualifying below.
Federal Solar Tax Credit
30% of the cost of your Solar Electric System and installation can be deducted from your federal tax bill.
Read more about this credit and what qualifies.
Solar Incentives by State… Click on your state to see what is available.
— You may be able to afford a larger solar PV system than you originally thought!
— You may be able to add the battery backup system you were planning to buy in a year or two
The Good News About Solar System Incentives, Qualifications and Tips
Some solar incentive programs pay you back over time, based on the energy you generate. Other solar incentives are one-time payments of rebates or credits. Incentive requirements and definitions may vary between states.
Incentive types can be specifically for residential, schools, business, or industrial; or inclusive of all of them. Solar incentives are mainly for grid tied systems and are sometimes available for off grid systems.
The incentives may be only for solar photovoltaic (electric), for electricity generated by wind, or for solar thermal (hot water generation). Other types of incentives may incorporate multiple solar technologies.
Programs with yearly or periodic application dates have credits or rebate rates that may be stepped down over time.
To qualify for incentives, your solar system may have to be installed by a licensed Photovoltaic System Installer, and/or connected to the grid by a licensed Electrician. This may be particularly true for Grid-Tie (Grid-Intertied) systems.

Solar Leasing Options
Plan ahead and act quickly. Many incentive programs are time sensitive. First-come-first-served programs, such as lotteries, can be spoken for in minutes after the opening of their application date.
Be careful including incentives in your PV system's budget due to requirements and possible deadlines to meet before qualifying.
Always consult a tax professional in regards to your eligibility for tax incentives.
Solar Incentive Glossary
Battery Backup Systems
Battery backup systems can store electricity from the grid or a fuel-powered generator to provide emergency power when the grid goes down. It can also store energy created PV system to power appliances and lights at night after the sun goes down.
Feed in Tariffs,
a Performance Based Incentive, or PBI
(Available for Grid Tied Systems.)
Feed-in Tariffs are typically long term contracts with your local utility for performance-based compensation.
The contracts are typically a 15-25 year purchase agreement at a guaranteed rate. The rate may decrease over time as specified in the agreement. Feed-in Tariffs may ultimately pay for your PV system or even exceed your initial investment depending on the specifics in the contract.
Originally started in Germany in 1990 and restructured in 2000 to include the right to interconnect to the utility grid. It was designed as an incentive to promote cost-effective renewable energy use and advancements in technologies. Due to its success, the current German policy is the cornerstone for the creation of many feed-in tariff programs around the globe.
Green Building Programs
(May be available for Off-grid and/or Grid-tied Systems.)
Green Building Programs are generally for new construction and remodeling, or just adding a solar electric system. The most common incentives are reductions or waivers of building permit fees. Some state or local organizations offer coupons that reduce construction and/or installation costs to homeowners. The home or business owner usually gives the coupon to their program-authorized installer/contractor. Once the system is installed the installer/contractor can be reimbursed for the amount of the coupon by the program's organization.
Grid-Tied PV Systems
Grid tied systems are inter-connected to send energy back to the grid when your solar electric system creates more than you're using; and you can receive energy from the grid when you're using more electricity than your system is generating at the moment. Learn more about grid-tied solar systems.
State or local governments may offer low or zero interest loans for renewable energy projects. Terms are typically 10 years or less. If you are going to purchase or remodel a home that you are going to add a solar system to you may also want to see the Energy Star website for information on Energy Improvement Mortgages (EIMs).
Property-Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing may be offered by states that have been authorized to participate in this program. The amount of the loan is determined by a special assessment of your property and is typically repaid over a period of years.
Check with your local banks and credit unions as they may offer renewable energy loans for less than the prime rate. Also consider that mortgage loans and home equity loans can offer several advantages: longer terms, lower interest rates than conventional bank loans, and tax-deductible interest.
As of January 2012, only four states do not have net metering policies ‐ South Dakota, Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee. These programs are for utility customers who generate their own electricity and feed excess energy back into the grid. Net-metered customers may use grid energy when their electrical demand exceeds their solar electric system's output. Solar electric credit rates are applied to the customer's total electric use and are shown on the utility bills.
The credit rates and rules vary from state to state. Unused solar electric system credits may expire in a specified time period or they may be carried over from year to year. The credits may only be applied to the utility bill or you may be allowed to get a refund check at the end of a designated period, usually the end of the year.
Off-Grid PV Systems
Off grid systems do not feed energy back to the grid. You may be completely independent from the grid or you may be receiving grid electricity to supplement your system (Grid-Assisted). Learn more about off-grid solar systems.
Solar PV System (Photovoltaics)
A solar PV system uses photovoltaic panels (or modules) to create electricity. This powers appliances, lights, and other electric equipment.
A solar thermal system uses panels (or modules) to heat water. The hot water is typically used instead of a water heater for everyday water use, or in a radiant heating system to warm the air.
State and Local Tax Incentives
Personal tax incentives include income tax credits (dollar-for-dollar reduction on what you owe) and income tax deductions (reduces your taxable income).
Property tax exemptions, exclusions and credit incentives generally exclude the added value of the system from your yearly property tax. Abatements may reduce a percentage of your yearly property tax over time.
State sales tax incentives can be an exemption from or a credit towards the applicable sales tax.
Utility Rate Discounts & Rebates
Some utilities and state or local programs may offer temporarily reduced rates on utility bills, or one time rebates on the installation of solar systems and purchases of energy efficient appliances and/or HVAC systems.

Schulting delights Dutch as Maliszewska claims historic first
Dordrecht, Netherlands
#EuroShortTrack #OneHandDown
The fevered crowd packed inside Dordrecht's Sportboulevard arena got exactly what they wanted at the first time of asking with home-town hero Suzanne Schulting powering to victory in the Ladies 1500m, the first final of the ISU European Short Track Speed Skating Championships.
Suzanne Schulting laps up the adulation after winning the 1500m 2019©International Skating Union (ISU)
The reigning Olympic 1000m champion, who came into this event in scintillating form, did not disappoint her legion of orange-clad fans as she shook off a surprise challenge from the revitalised Elise Christie (GBR) to claim her first ever individual European title.
"I felt in total control. I am really happy with how it went," said Schulting who has already won four individual World Cup titles this season. "It's all about the races before. I have skated really well through the first part of this season."
Christie has only been back in training since July last year following a devastating experience at the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Games and she surprised everyone, not least herself, by grabbing the lead with seven laps to go.
"I did not expect to win any medals this weekend. I only found out I was coming not long ago so to pull out a second place is incredible," said the skater who fell or was disqualified in all three of her races in PyeongChang despite going into the Games as the then reigning 1000m and 1500m world champion and the 500m world record holder.
While Christie admitted that she knew, even while in the lead, that Schulting was destined to win the gold – "Suzanne is the strongest here by quite a bit, we can all see that"– the British skater was delighted by the tactical nous she displayed.
Elise Christie surprised even herself by coming second in 1500m final 2019©International Skating Union (ISU)
"When Suzanne came (past) I thought I could fight with her but then I knew I might end up off the podium, so I let her go and thought I would try and stick to her as much as possible," Christie said. "It was the best tactic, actually I think it was the best 1500m I have ever raced.
"They (her coaching team) said it is the first time I have celebrated a medal in so long – it was nice to be that happy again."
Russia's Sofia Prosvirnova, a one-time figure skater, snatched the bronze medal, just ahead of Belgium's exciting young talent Hanne Desmet.
In contrast to Schulting's machine-like victory in the 1500m, the second Ladies final of the day, the 500m, highlighted the excitingly wild and unpredictable nature of Short Track.
The Dutch crowd were not alone in expecting a second home triumph, with two of this season's top performing 500m racers lining up for the final decked in orange. But while Schulting had looked imperious through the 500m heats, a split-second call to try and overtake leader Natalia Maliszewska (POL) on the final bend left her on the ice and teammate Lara van Ruijven floundering in third, with no chance of catching the Pole.
"Lara made a decision to go inside Natalia and I made the decision to go inside Lara and it was the wrong decision," Schulting said afterwards. "I should have chosen the other way."
Van Ruijven, who won bronze at PyeongChang 2018 in the Ladies 3000m relay in tandem with Schulting, was admirably philosophical at the setback.
"It's part of Short Track, unfortunately," she said. "I was here for gold and it's bronze. I am happy with my race but I am not happy with the result."

None of that should overshadow Maliszewska's monumental achievement. The 23-year-old, whose sister Patrycja competed in Short Track at the Vancouver 2010 and Sochi 2014 Olympic Games, won her nation's first ever individual European Championship gold medal.
"I showed that it is possible, I always think I am able to do the impossible," said the woman who has won twice at 500m on the World Cup circuit this season. "I always know that skating with the Dutch girls is going to be a tough race. They are fighters till the end. But I try to stay positive and just focus on what I can do the best."
The fact that her elder sister was present to watch her historical feat made it all the better.
"I am so happy and so grateful that she is here," Maliszewska said. "She is the one that I have followed; she showed me the road, the way to be a European champion."
Battle will resume tomorrow with both the Dutch and Polish skaters expecting to be among the medals with the 1000m, 3000m superfinal and the relay finals taking place.

How do you export a whole notebook?
Home>Logos Notes>How do you export a whole notebook?
Thanks for your information it helped me move in the right direction BUT I have an issue maybe you can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
When I click on the ellipsis and select Print/Export, it only exports or print the current note NOT the whole notebook.
I found a work-around by selecting the notebook in the left panel (notebook/filter selection) and then Control-Click each note in the notebook, then the print/export will do all the notes.
I'm probably missing something and I was hoping you could shed some light on it.
Strange - I've just tested it and it exports the entire notebook.
The way Thomas describes is how it works for me on a Mac. It will only print/export the SELECTED notes, not the whole notebook. Maybe this is different on Windows?
Thomas, you can quickly select a group of notes by clicking the first one, scrolling to the last one you want to include, holding SHIFT down and clicking the final note.
Maybe this is different on Windows?
Maybe - I was testing on Windows.
I just tested in Windows and exported just the current note. When I closed that note, then the whole notebook was exported.
When I closed that note, then the whole notebook was exported.
Ah hah, Jack...that's the secret. Now it works for me also.
Here is what I found, When I open the search tool, choose "Notebook" and then pick one of my notebooks. Then immediately (i.e. Never select a specific note) select Print / Export, It exports the entire notebook. However, If I had selected a note to view / edit, then do the export, it will only do that individual note. It make more sense to me now.
So I guess there is not a "bug". I just thought it was a little misleading to me, being a novice. It would be nice if there were a "Export WHOLE Notebook" button under the "Print/Export" menu.
Did the exchanges above help you out?
Am I in the wrong area? The ellipsis next to my notebook names just give options to rename, share (make public) or delete.
If you review this thread I think you will see the steps you need to take. The following steps are for a Windows desktop computer. Your mileage may vary.
Press [Ctrl+P] to see the export dialog.
Depending on how Word is set up, there might be a dialog hidden behind all your other screens.
After the latest release, I switched from the L7-style notes to the L8-style. When I went to export the entire notebook, it cut off at page 131. This is a large notebook that consists of my running Bible commentary. It should be about 700 pages. It cut off right around the book of Numbers in canonical order. The L7-style notes let me export the whole thing.
I'm wondering if this is a known bug or simply something odd going on on my end. I'm on a Mac if that matters.

      <title>Problem 56 : Powerful Digit Sum</title>

      <description>Introduction Let&#8217;s start with a link to the problem: Euler Project Problem 56.
 The problem had been solved many times using a bruteforce approach, or an analytical approach that uses some estimation to zoom on the range of values to search for the max.
 I present here a kotlin implementation with an optimization approach that minimizes the search space considerably and allows to find the solution for theoritically any arbitrary base and exponent values.</description>

      <guid>http://wesamhaboush.github.io/posts/iterating-over-maps-in-java/</guid>
      <description>In a great article titled Iterating Java Map Entries, the brilliant John Thompson offers a clean way to iterate over java maps.
 I kindly here offer my own preference on how this should be done, which is only mildly different from John&#8217;s. I feel that leaking the mutable list outside the lambda during the iteration might be both conceptually, and practically hazardous. The style below is expression-base, more expressive, less error prone, and fairly concise.</description>

      <guid>http://wesamhaboush.github.io/posts/project-euler-problem-29-distinct-powers/</guid>
      <description>Introduction I have been lately playing with Project Euler, and after few weeks, I hit problem 29. I had no idea how to solve it to start with, but after much thinking, searching, reading, and learning, I made two solutions that are NOT brute force.
 The problem statement can be found here: Euler Project Problem 29
 My understanding of the problem and the nature of the project is that we are trying to not use brute force solutions (even if they are feasible), but rather use the problem statements to learn about number theory, and other clever ways to optimize the O(n) of the problem to a minimum in terms of both time and space.</description>

      <title>Generic Mapper for Arrays In Java</title>

      <pubDate>Wed, 07 Oct 2015 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate>

      <guid>http://wesamhaboush.github.io/posts/generic-mapper-for-arrays-in-java/</guid>
      <description>What is a Mapper? In functional programming, maps are used to apply a function to each element in a list and return the result list. For example, if you apply the function f(x) = x . x to the list [1, 2, 3], then you get the result list [1,4,9]. We will call a class that does this job in Java an Array or Collection Mapper.
 In more general terms, functions in the mathematical sense are mappers because they map from one space (input space or domain) to another (output space or domain).</description>

      <description>Loggers Problem Developers commonly create loggers for classes by copying logger creation lines from other classes. The process is so repetitive and error-prone that often they forget to update the line to reflect the actual class where the statement was pasted. This is compounded by the fact that IDEs normally auto-import the foreign class. We all saw classes that had the wrong logger like this:
 public class X { private static final Logger LOG = Logger.</description>

Thyroid hormone medication (L-thyroxine)
Thyroid Nodules and Goiter
A goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid, the H-shaped gland that wraps around the front of your windpipe, just below your Adam's apple.
A goiter can be smooth and uniformly enlarged, called diffuse goiter, or it can be caused by one or more nodules within the gland, called nodular goiter. Nodules may be solid, filled with fluid, or partly fluid and partly solid.
Thyroid nodules are quite common. When examined with ultrasound imaging, as many as one-third of women and one-fifth of men have small thyroid nodules.
It's possible for an enlarged thyroid to continue functioning well and producing the right amounts of hormones. In fact, most goiters and nodules don't cause health problems. However, goiter can also be a sign of certain conditions that cause the thyroid to produce too much thyroid hormone (called hyperthyroidism) or too little (called hypothyroidism).
Almost all cases of enlarged thyroid result from one of the following problems:
Inefficient Production of Thyroid Hormone
When the thyroid can't produce enough thyroid hormone, it compensates by getting bigger. Worldwide, the most common cause is not enough iodine in the diet. However, this is rare in the United States. Other causes include a genetic defect or certain medications, such as lithium carbonate.
Inflammation of the Thyroid
Common causes of an inflamed thyroid include autoimmune thyroiditis (also called Hashimoto's thyroiditis), which occurs when the person's immune system attacks its own thyroid, causing swelling and inflammation. Hashimoto's thyroiditis often results in a permanently underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism).
Another common cause is postpartum thyroiditis. This affects about 5 percent of women in the year after pregnancy. It usually goes away on its own without treatment.
Thyroid inflammation can also be caused by an infection or by certain medications.
Thyroid Tumors
Thyroid tumors are usually benign, but can be cancerous. Most tumors are nodules, but they can also appear as generalized swelling of the gland.
Our Approach to Thyroid Nodules and Goiter
UCSF offers comprehensive consultations and treatments for thyroid conditions, including goiter (enlarged thyroid gland) and thyroid nodules. Many goiters and thyroid nodules are harmless, so we often can take a watch-and-wait approach. However, treatment may be necessary for goiters or nodules that are causing bothersome symptoms or health concerns, such as the production of too much or too little thyroid hormone. Additionally, some cases are caused by thyroid cancer, although this is rare.
Treatment options include thyroid hormone medication, radioactive iodine therapy and surgery. For patients considering surgery, UCSF offers less invasive approaches that leave either no scar or a small scar hidden under the chin.

Here we are doing a complete remodel that required a lot of plumbing work.
<--To the left is the original bathroom footprint with a very dated design. It was too cramped and the new condo owner wanted to add a shower.
To the right is the new floor plan. We removed the closet and the wall that separated the vanity and toilet from above and off we went.
<--- All of the subfloor came off in order for us rearrange the water flows.
Here's the new shower where the old closet once was. We installed the Hardie BackerBoard (same people that make Hardie Siding. Notice the rubber membrane on the shower base? It goes up about 6" behind the wall - yet another step to prevent water from leaking out.
Here's our lead, Jose, installing the tile selected by the homeowner.
We love the full sheet mosaic trim versus two-three rows. All the tile came from Floor & Decor. The building materials from Home Depot.
This corner turned out nice with two shelves plus the soap dish on the left of the water valve.
The new tub is install and since we knew the homeowner wanted tile around the tub we installed Hadie BackBoard as the substrate (can't install tile on drywall because it'll peel off). Above the backer board is "green" drywall - green is used for bathrooms because it's mold resistant drywall.
It's coming together nice. Here's also the vanity.
Sooo much more space with the wall in the middle.
There once was a vanity here but now it's the rough-in for the new toilet.
The finished product. Tile floors that look like wood floors.


I've already discuss this program, right after Russian test skates. Lovely program that shows that Julia turned into a beautiful young woman. Not everything was good with tech, judges saw under rotations on 3t in combination and 3f, the flip also got a 'e' for wrong edge. But still I think it was a good beginning of the season for Julia. But I'm more worried for the free program.
I really like the dress. Everything as I like – simple cut, sleeves and moderate amount of decoration) Julia looks so slim in this dress, and open back with tiny crossed strips make her waist even thiner. I don't know why, but this dress reminds me of Yuna Kim's dresses, and it's definately a big compliment.
Nice program, and I do see some improvements in speed and her skating skills. But I still have a feeling that this program was created for Adelina. I can see Adelina skating some parts of this program) Yes, both girls has beautiful long lines, but unfortunately Maria doesn't have Adelina's powerful skating, which would have perfectly fitted into this choreo. So, I think Maris deserves something more unique that will highlight her strengths.
Lovely program for a young girl. Solid performance, I think she and her coach can be satisfied with such beginning of the season.
What are your thoughts about Angelina Kuchvalska?She's 10th after SP,not very successive,but I liked her programm,some interesting music.
Thank you for your opinion.I hope Angelina has her own competition with herself and she will improve during this season.
I also hope so, because I don't want European Championships to become a championships of one country.

'The Empire Strikes Back' Turns 38: Is It The Best 'Star Wars' Film?
Eric Senich Published: May 19, 2018
Artur Matkovskyy
Search your feelings. You know it to be true. The Empire Strikes Back is the father of all Star Wars films.
On May 21st, 1980 Star Wars: Episode V aka The Empire Strikes Back was released to theaters worldwide. With the enormous success of the first film three years earlier the buzz around Empire was just as enormous. Kids wanted to see it. Adults wanted to see it. Teenagers wanted to see it. Hell, even the family dog couldn't wait to see the film. They had a huge crush on Chewbacca you understand. When all was said and done the movie pulled in over $530 million at the box office.
Why was it such a huge success? Let's start with the obvious - The Daddy Darth angle. That may be the biggest reason why I think The Empire Strikes Back is the best of all the Star Wars films. I was 7 going on 8 at the time and that's pretty much all every kid in my classroom talked about for the rest of the school year and throughout summer break. It was a HUGE deal. That final scene when Vader reveals the truth to Luke? Wow. Hearing the booming voice of James Earl Jones as Darth Vader say "I am your father" over that amazing John Williams music followed by Luke's painful denial was Earth shattering. Keep in mind, this was way before the internet. Movie plot secrets were much easier to keep. Nobody, I mean NOBODY, saw this coming.
While the final reveal can be considered the high point of the film there is so much more to The Empire Strikes Back. Being a fan of all things gothic this movie pushes all of my entertainment buttons. The dark, brooding tone of the film starts immediately after the opening crawl and it takes place on the ice planet Hoth. It's frigid cold, cloudy and extremely windy. The sense of dread fills the arctic air. The viewer immediately feels a sense of danger coming and that edge-of-seat suspense is held throughout the entire film.
Although The Empire Strikes Back was a sequel to the Star Wars franchise there are some memorable debuts in this movie. This is the first time we get to see one of the greatest inventions in the Star Wars series - The AT-ATs:
Another first from Empire was a character who has gained a cult following among Star Wars fans over the years - Boba Fett.
...and how could we forget the city that is guaranteed to give every Star Wars fan a high - Cloud City?:
Speaking of Cloud City, that's where we first meet the smooth-talking smuggler Lando Calrissian:
There's another first in The Empire Strikes Back that I'm trying to think of. Hmmmm. Oh yeah, that little green fella named Yoda! Where would the Star Wars franchise be without our beloved Jedi Master?:
I could go on and on but I think you get the point. Besides, I think TNT is about to run Empire right now so I'm gonna go watch it for the millionth time. In the meantime, I wanna know what you think. Is The Empire Strikes Back the best of all the Star Wars films? Post your comments below or at i95's Facebook page.

'Sons of Anarchy' Creator Kurt Sutter Reveals If He'd Work With Charlie Hunnam Again
By Daniel S. Levine - May 10, 2020 09:24 pm EDT
Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter has spent part of his time at home during the coronavirus pandemic answering questions from fans, and nothing has been off the table so far. When one fan asked if he would ever work with Sons of Anarchy star Charlie Hunnam again, Sutter of course said he would. Jackson "Jax" Teller on the FX series was Hunnam's breakout part, and led to Hunnam being cast in blockbuster movies.
"Are you planning on working with Charlie Hunnam again?" a fan asked Sutter. "In a heartbeat," he replied on April 28. "I'd love to find the right project. Something that would stretch the both of us. And that's not too reminiscent of SOA."
question from Facebook #CharlieHunnam #SutterThinks pic.twitter.com/dzYJBJ4GZ9
— kurt sutter (@sutterink) April 28, 2020
When FX launched the first SOA spin-off Mayans M.C., there was hope Hunnam would play Jax on the series again. However, the show is set after the events of Sons of Anarchy, which had ended with Teller being killed. While promoting Papillon in 2018, Hunnam told Entertainment Tonight there was little chance he would ever play the part again.
"No, no… I had the deepest experience of my career coming out of that," the British actor explained at the time. "I had become that character, had become so deeply integrated into who I was, I literally didn't realize until the day we wrapped and we put him to rest and I felt I went through a period of two or three weeks of, like, real bereavement."
Hunnam said he still had fond memories of the part, which earned him Critics' Choice Television Award nominations in 2012 and 2015. "I have his cut [leather vest] and, you know, people have been to my house and asked if they could try it on and I [say] 'No one will ever put that cut on again' and 'We got to respect that dude. He's not with us anymore,'" Hunnam said. "So I would never bring him back from the dead for something like that… It was seven years of my life. He sort of became sacred to me."
Sutter and Hunnam clearly still have a close friendship, as Sutter often shared throwback photos from the Sons of Anarchy production on Instagram. Hunnam has also joined other SOA actors at conventions, proving that the bonds between them can't be broken just because a show ended.
Sons of Anarchy originally aired on FX between 2008 and 2014, and is now available to stream on Hulu. Since the show ended, Hunnam has starred in King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, The Lost City of Z, Triple Frontier, The Gentlemen and True History of the Kelly Gang. Hunnam is now working on Shantaram, an AppleTV+ series based on Gregory David Roberts' 2003 film. Production on the series was put on hold in December while American Hustle co-writer Eric Warren Singer finishes writing the scripts.

"Oh, look there, Nan!" cried Bess Harley suddenly, as they turned into High Street from the avenue on which Tillbury's high school was situated.
"Look where?" queried Nan Sherwood promptly. "Up in the air, down on the ground or all around?" and she carried out her speech in action, finally spinning about on one foot in a manner to shock the more staid Elizabeth.
"Oh, Bess!" mocked her friend.
She was a rosy cheeked, brown eyed girl, with fly away hair, a blue tam o' shanter set jauntily upon it, and a strong, plump body that she had great difficulty in keeping still enough in school to satisfy her teachers.
"Do behave, Nan," begged Bess. "We're on the public street."
"How awful!" proclaimed Nan Sherwood, making big eyes at her chum. "Why folks know we're only high school girls, so, of course, we're crazy! Otherwise we wouldn't BE high school girls."
"Nonsense!" cried Bess, interrupting. "Do be reasonable, Nan. And look yonder! What do you suppose that crowd is at the big gate of the Atwater Mills?"

Reader - Engrams
Select... $19.99 — Animated Picture Disc (Unavailable) $19.99 — Milky Clear (Unavailable) $7.99 — Digital Download
Item unavailable? Notify me if it comes back in stock.
In a time of facsimiles, replicas, and false tributes, along comes Reader — a bombastic, fearlessly unusual rock quartet from Seattle, WA. Practically speaking, this means stunning and precise vocal harmonies over shattering angular guitars, unconventional time signatures, and a driving rhythm section. Less practically speaking, the band's debut record Engrams is a journey — a dynamic and unpredictable experience that challenges the listener in all the best ways. Attempting to neatly categorize Reader's sound is a fool's errand. No clean "recommended if you like" comparisons can be made. The band could best be described as an experimental amalgamation of melodic and layered harmonies over aggressive and mathy guitar-driven rock. Think Alice In Chains meets the late-60's vocal stylings of groups like CSNY and Simon and Garfunkel. An original juxtaposition of forces, authentic and uncompromised in any direction.

Q: Reversing a string in MIPS Trying to get this program to work but I can't figure out why I keep getting an error. The program is suppose to take an entry of 11 characters, then output the reversed input. The error is as below.

Runtime exception at 0x00400034: store address not aligned on word boundary 0x7fffeffb

The code is posted below. I also need to store the final reversed string into 'revstr'. I am just having trouble with the reversal.
    .data
str: .space 12
revstr: .space 12
prompt: .asciiz "Enter in string, max 11 characters: "
.text
main:

    la      $a0, prompt     #calling opening prompt
    li      $v0, 4
    syscall

    li $v0, 8
    la $a0, str
    li $a1, 12
    syscall

    li $t0, 0
    subu $sp, $sp, 1
    sw $t0, ($sp)
    li $t1, 0

bump1:
    lbu $t0, str($t1)
    beqz $t0, stend
    subu $sp, $sp, 4
    sw $t0, ($sp)
    addu $t1, $t1, 1
    j bump1

stend: li $t1, 0

populate:
    lw $t0, ($sp)
    addu $sp, $sp, 4
    beqz $t0, done
    sb $t0, str($t1)
    addu $t1, $t1, 1
    j populate

done:
    li $v0, 4
    la $a1, str
    syscall
    li $v0, 10
    syscall

A: You are using a 32-bit machine, you should use offsets that are multiples of 4 bytes
=> 4*8=32
for you words to be aligned
otherwise your instructions must be byte oriented (lb sb lbu etc.. not lw..)
also correct these:
lw $t0, ($sp) it is better to specify the offset to avoid confusion

A: The code you posted confused me pretty good. You are modifying $sp in the middle of a function which is generally a no-go, and I couldn't figure out why you were doing it. Also, you say you want to store the reversed string in revstr but all sb instructions are pointed at str.
It's a good idea when communicating assembly to others to give them some pseudo-code to show them the general approach you are attempting to use. Here's mine:
str := user_input()
$t1 := len(str)
$t2 := 0
while ($t1 >= 0) {
    revstr[$t2] := str[$t1]
    $t1 := $t1 - 1
    $t2 := $t2 + 1
}

With that mental picture, it should be fairly easy to understand how I've modified your assembly:
str: .space 12
revstr: .space 12
prompt: .asciiz "Enter in string, max 11 characters: "

.text
main:

    la $a0, prompt     #calling opening prompt
    li $v0, 4
    syscall

    li $v0, 8
    la $a0, str
    li $a1, 12
    syscall

    li $t1, 0

bump1:
    lbu $t0, str($t1)
    beqz $t0, stend
    addu $t1, $t1, 1
    j bump1

stend:
    li $t2, 0
    addi $t1, $t1 -1

populate:
    blt $t1, $zero, done
    lb $t3, str($t1)
    sb $t3, revstr($t2)
    sub $t1, $t1, 1
    add $t2, $t2, 1
    j populate

done:
    sb $zero, revstr($t2) #null terminate revstr

    li $v0, 4
    la $a0, revstr
    syscall
    li $v0, 10

Eagles' Chris Long, Malcolm Jenkins rip NFL's 'clumsy' national anthem policy
PHILADELPHIA – The two most prominent voices of consciousness inside the Philadelphia Eagles' locker room, Malcolm Jenkins and Chris Long, left no gray area: They detest the new national anthem policy that NFL owners adopted last week.
"I think it was driven by fear of a diminished bottom line … and the underlying factor is that they are afraid of the president," Long said Tuesday.
"It's their right," the 11th-year defensive end added of league owners, "but it's a clumsy rule. They didn't involve the players. You can say what you want about the (collective bargaining agreement) and what we bargained, but with the optics of everything going on right now, in the midst of denying some people employment over this very issue, you'd think they would have been a little more careful."
As Long spoke, Jenkins began holding court a few dozen feet away. Although the veteran safety co-founded the Players Coalition that has partnered with the NFL on a $90 million initiative to address social issues, he still hard harsh words for the decision makers behind the resolution.
More:Harry Edwards: NFL's failure to learn from history on protests will prove costly
More:Panthers' Torrey Smith: NFL national anthem policy could 'stir things up' with players
Jenkins and Long were in the room with several owners last fall during a summit at league headquarters, when seemingly significant progress was made in the movement ignited by still-unemployed quarterback Colin Kaepernick's protests against police brutality and other social inequities challenging African-Americans.
After naming a handful of owners – including Philadelphia's Jeffrey Lurie – who publicly supported the players' causes, Jenkins shook his head and added of the policy, "To make a decision like that lacks the empathy, the sympathy and context the players were looking for."
The new policy subjects teams to discipline if players do not stand or "show respect" during the anthem. Players who don't wish to comply can remain in the locker room while the anthem is played.
"We don't have these types of policies for the other causes that we support, whether it is our Salute to Service, breast cancer awareness or anything else," Jenkins said. "It's just when you start talking about black folks. It's disheartening."
Jenkins, who is African-American, and Long, one of the few white players to speak about the issue, both said they are unsure if they will be on the sideline or remain in the locker room during the anthem.
The two have already reiterated that they will not visit the White House next Tuesday when President Trump will host the Eagles to commemorate their Super Bowl victory. The team is working on details that would allow players who wished not to attend the White House to instead engage in a community service project.
"It's reopened a can of worms," Long contended. "I think it's only going to get messier."
Such a sentiment might be widespread throughout the NFL.
"This is not supposed to be a fascist country, where you are forced to do things you don't want to do," Long said. "This is a free country."
Jenkins wanted to remind Trump of that, as he blasted the president for his remarks last week suggesting that players who don't comply with the new policy "maybe ... shouldn't be in the country."
Said Jenkins, "Whether it's the rhetoric that (when) players want to use their civil rights to fight for their community (they) should be deported, it just plays into our racist history. He has these comments that we've seen far too long."
Neither Jenkins nor Long have actually ever taken a knee during the anthem. But Jenkins has raised a fist and Long has stood by his side and placed a hand on his shoulder as a show of support. Now they are contemplating whether to make a different type of statement.
And they aren't alone.
"I know you've pissed a lot of guys off," Jenkins said of NFL owners, "regardless of whether they protested or not."

New Orleans Saints vs. Seattle Seahawks Point Spread – Pick Against the Spread – 31116
New Orleans Saints (12-5 SU, 9-8 ATS) vs. Seattle Seahawks (13-3 SU, 11-5 ATS) ATS)
NFC Divisional Playoffs
Date and Time: Saturday January 11th, 2014. 4:35PM Eastern
Where: CenturyLink Field Seattle, W.A.
by Jay, Football Handicapper, Predictem.com
Point Spread: N.O. +8/SEA -8
Over/Under Total: 46.5
Bet your Saints/Seahawks pick using your credit card at an online betting site where it WILL work for depositing and where you'll receive a generous dollar for dollar matching 100% bonus: GTBets.
The New Orleans Saints were a bit out of character last
week in their road trip to Philadelphia. Quarterback Drew Brees did not
have to throw for 300 yards with several touchdowns and the offense did
not have to score 30 plus points. Instead the Saints relied on a strong
running game behind Mark Ingram and a gutsy defensive performance to overtake
the Eagles in a 26-24 grudge match. The win was actually New Orleans first
postseason road victory in franchise history and moved the team one victory
away of an NFC Championship appearance. However, the Saints will face an
even tougher road challenge this week when they go into CenturyLink Field
for a Divisional Playoff showdown with the Seattle Seahawks.
The Seahawks ended the regular season tied with Denver for the best record in the NFL at 13-3 SU. Seattle will now have the 12th man at their back throughout the playoffs as a result of their number 1 seed in the NFC. CenturyLink Field is largely known as the NFLs most difficult environment for visiting teams. Back in week 13, the Saints rolled into Seattle with a 3 game winning streak but were demolished by the Seahawks 34-7. Not only was it the Saints biggest loss of the season, but it was also one of the worse performances by the New Orleans offense under Coach Sean Payton. Brees and company were held to a season low 188 total yards on offense while the Saints defense was gashed for 315 in the first half alone.
Obviously the Saints have an opportunity to erase that loss to Seattle with a dose of redemption this Saturday but it is not going to come easy. Oddsmakers have the Seahawks listed as 8.5 point favorites for this Saturdays contest. The good news is that the Saints have displayed a lot more physicality in recent weeks which should help them avoid a repeat result from week 13. As mentioned earlier, running back Mark Ingram has emerged as a reliable ground and pound type of runner between the tackles. Ingram carried the ball 18 times for 97 yards and a touchdown in last weeks win over the Eagles. We all know about Brees and New Orleans potent passing attack. However the Saints were not able to sustain drives and gain tough yardage in their last trip to Seattle which left a lot of 3 play drives on the table. If Ingram can continue to run well, it could open things up for TE Jimmy Graham and WR Marques Colston down the field.

Obviously points will be tough to come by for New Orleans so keeping drives alive will be critical to their chances of a victory. Seattle owns the top rated defense in the NFL holding opponents to just 273 total yards and 14.4 points per game. The Seahawks are exceptional against the pass with All-Pro cornerbacks Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas. I would not necessarily Seattle has any true defensive weaknesses but they have been most vulnerable against the run. The Seahawks gave up several big numbers on the ground this season which is another reason why I believe New Orleans will try to run the football this Saturday.
On the other side of the ball, Seattle will surely put the ball in the hands of their workhorse and running back Marshawn Lynch. Lynch touched the ball 301 times (2nd most in NFL) this season for 1,257 yards and 12 touchdowns. The Saints ranked 2nd against the pass behind Seattle yielding just 194 yards per game. Therefore, if the Saints can keep Lynch bottled up they should be able to make things difficult for quarterback Russell Wilson and an average Seahawks receiving corps which would keep things very interesting.
Jay's Pick to Cover the Point Spread: Weather looks to play a big part in this weekends game with heavy rainfall expected. I would jump on the under 46.5 as they number will likely come down throughout the week. Both teams will look to run the ball and I believe this game will be about the defenses. The rain just helps. Take the under 46.5

Wood Markets News China's Ban on Imported Logs from Australia Creating Hardship on Australian Timber Industry	International Markets Timber
China's Ban on Imported Logs from Australia Creating Hardship on Australian Timber Industry
Diplomatic ties between Australia and its largest trading partner deteriorated last year after Canberra called for an international inquiry into the source of the coronavirus, angering China. Any hopes of a quick reconciliation have been dashed as Canberra and Beijing have now ensnared bureaucrats, who would usually stay engaged during a temporary disagreement. Australia exports logs to China were worth just over A$600 million and woodchips worth were almost A$980 million annually, according to 2018-19 trade figures. The four-million-ton log timber trade with China has been largely suspended since late last year after Beijing said it had found pests in shipments coming from several Australian ports. Woodchips, however, continue to be exported to China. Australia's Department of Agriculture did not receive a response after providing evidence to China's General Administration of Customs that the shipments were sprayed with pesticides, said the sources, who have direct knowledge of the approaches but declined to be named because of the sensitivity of the matter. Victor Violante, deputy chief executive of the Australian Forest Products Association (AFPA), told Reuters, "At least hundreds of workers nationally have already lost work as a result of forest thinning, harvesting and haulage, and port operations being deferred. If the trade suspension continues for months or even years, it will severely impact the whole supply chain including sawmills, and with it thousands more jobs."

"I Love to Eat" at Illusion Theater
Everything I know about the culinary world I learned from watching Top Chef. The name James Beard is often heard on the show, in terms of the awards his Foundation bestows on promising chefs, but I never really knew much about the man himself. I'm not really what one would call a foodee; my favorite meal is a veggie burger, fries, and beer. But I do love to eat, as do most people, and we have that in common with James Beard, the subject of I Love to Eat: A Love Story with Food at the Illusion Theater. This one-man show, written by playwright James Still and directed by Michael Robins) is a sort of hallucination/dream/stream-of-consciousness in which James talks to us, the audience, telling stories about his life and love of food and cooking. Not much happens, but by the end of the 75-minute play, I had grown quite fond of this man who was a pioneer of American cookery.
The play consists of James in his kitchen telling stories, preparing food, reading letters from fans, and talking on one of three phones to fans or friends (including Julia Child). He is alone on stage, but you get the feeling that he craves connection, hence his generous contact with fans. We learn a little about his childhood in Portland (an ideal childhood is not necessarily a happy one), his travels, and his TV show. James hosted the first TV cooking show in the late 40s, and we see a few scenes from the show, talking to a cow puppet, the sponsor of the show. He makes his beloved onion sandwiches (with homemade mayonnaise), and a few lucky audience members get a taste! He focused on "every day American cookery" rather than pretentious fancy meals, encouraging his fans and students to use the preparation and eating of food to bring people together, as it has throughout human history.
James Beard (Garry Geiken) with his co-host
Garry Geiken has shaved his beautiful head of hair to play James, and fully embodies not only his bald head but also his love of life, food, and connection. He moves in and out of the various scenarios (TV show, phone conversations, memories, reading letters) with ease. He has an infectious laugh and easy smile, but also gives us a sense of loneliness under the jolly exterior (it's impossible not to cry when you're chopping onions). He has the audience in the palm of his hand, as we dutifully repeat tips like "only fresh lemons always." The set, designed by Dean Holzman, is a detailed and homey kitchen that's slightly fantastical - the floor slopes towards the audience - giving the sense that this is not quite reality. The lighting (designed by Mike Wangen) tells us when we're entering the wacky world of the TV show.
James believed in "good food, simply cooked," and using the best ingredients. I Love to Eat is a theatrical meal James would approve of - the best ingredients combine in a story simply told. Sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter, but always tasty. The title says it all - he loved to eat, and he conveyed that love through his cooking and through his teaching. Like a good meal, you'll leave the theater feeling happy and satisfied. Playing now through May 18, with half-price tickets available on Goldstar.
