I can not understand why module jetty-server upgrade from 9.4.33.v20201020 to 9.4.48.v20220622,because other jetty module version remain at 9.4.33.v20201020
And I import dependency implementation group: "org.springframework.boot", name: "spring-boot-starter-jetty", version: "2.1.18.RELEASE" in another clean project B. And here is dependency tree:

All jetty module version is unified:9.4.45
Why does the same dependency implementation group: "org.springframework.boot", name: "spring-boot-starter-jetty", version: "2.1.18.RELEASE refer different version of module jetty

A: As you may know Gradle implementation acts transitively which means any dependencies bring its dependencies. Although your jetty-server version is 9.4.33.v20201020 but somehow spring-boot-starter-jetty is dependent on jetty-servlets:9.4.48.v20220622 so it's being brought. However, it's a little waired that your second screenshot shows version 9.4.45 because I myself test it with an isolated project and the version was 9.4.48. Anyway, you can inform the implementation to not act completely transitively and exclude some dependencies like blow:
implementation("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-jetty:2.1.18.RELEASE")
        {
            exclude group: "org.eclipse.jetty"
        }

But if there is org.eclipse.jetty that spring-boot-starter-jetty is dependent on, you had to put it inside your build.gradle or exclude the malicious module specifically like blow:
implementation("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-jetty:2.1.18.RELEASE")
        {
            exclude group: "org.eclipse.jetty",  module: "jetty-servlets"
        }


I'm not sure whether there has been a change recently or whether I have done something silly (probably!), but before I stopped working for the Christmas break last year, my embedded PyCharm Terminal showed the virtual env at the start of the embedded Terminal prompt, then the user, then the path, then finally the git branch at the end of the prompt.
Coming back to work on this Mac today, I still have the virtual env name, but the user, path and git branch is missing. Also, git autocompletion no longer works.
So - should PyCharm be reading off this .bash_profile file, and if not is there a setting somewhere in PyCharm for me to display the info as it used to?
I was able to "fix" this issue by updating the Shell path value to indicate a login shell should be used by adding the -l (lowercase L) option to the bash call under the Tools | Terminal preference setting in PyCharm.
Thank you! It works on me!

Kamal Haasan May Resume Sabaash Naidu Shoot Ahead of Indian 2
The actor is currently hosting the television reality show Big Boss – Season 2
by BLive June 19, 2018, 1:09 pm
Chennai: Kamal Haasan, who is currently hosting the television reality show Big Boss – Season 2, is reportedly all set to continue working on Sabaash Naidu, post which he will work on Indian 2. The trilingual movie, Sabaash Naidu, which is half complete is also an ambitious project of the actor who floated his political outfit recently. Indian 2, directed by Shankar, will go on the floors only after the director wraps up his much anticipated 2.0.
Another awaited movie of Kamal Haasan is the sequel of Vishwaroopam, titled Vishwaroopam 2. The trailer for the sequel was released recently and it had gone viral. The film is rumored to be set for a global release in August. It has been years since the shooting for the movie began, but was delayed due to financial difficulties.
Shoot for Sabaash Naaidu which began a few years ago had also got delayed due to various reasons. The shooting will resume as soon as Kamal Haasan wraps up Big Boss Season 2. The first schedule of the movie has been completed in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi in Los Angeles. The shoot got hindered as Kamal Haasan's leg got fractured after he fell from the stairs of his office.
Sabaash Naidu will be a sequel of the character Balram Naidu from Dasavatharam. The 2008 movie Dasavatharam was a super hit with Kamal playing 10 different characters in the movie. Both Sabaash Naidu and Vishwaroopam 2 will be trilingual, and will be released in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi.
The upcoming Shankar- Kamal Haasan movie, Indian 2, announced a few months ago, is in the pre- production stage. There is news that the movie is set for release in 2020. Director Shankar who will soon make the official announcement of the movie is still working on the cast and crew of the flick. He is currently working on the movie 2.0 starring Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar. 2.0 is expected to hit the theaters in August.

Syria death toll at least 93,000, says UN
At least 93,000 people have been killed in Syria since the start of the conflict, according to latest United Nations figures.
This represents a rise of more than 30,000 since the UN last issued figures covering the period to November 2012.
At least 5,000 people have been dying in Syria every month since last July, the UN's human rights body says.
But it says these statistics are an underestimate as it believes many deaths have not been reported.
Over 80% of those killed were men, but the UN's Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) says it has also documented the deaths of more than 1,700 children under the age of 10.
There were "cases of individual children being tortured and executed, and entire families, including babies, being massacred - which, along with this devastatingly high death toll, is a terrible reminder of just how vicious this conflict has become," said OHCHR head Navi Pillay.
The revised toll came the day after a separate global UN report called the number of deaths among Syrian children "unbearable".
The study said government forces and rebels were using boys and girls as "suicide bombers or human shields".
Children in Syria were suffering "maybe the heaviest toll" of anywhere in the world, said UN special representative Leila Zerrougui, who presented the findings .
"They are killed, they are maimed, they are recruited, they are detained, they are tortured", she told journalists in New York.
The report accused Syrian troops of torturing children suspected of having links to rebel groups.
But it said armed opposition groups, including the Free Syrian Army, were also using children, both in combat and in support roles such as transporting supplies and loading cartridges.
Ceasefire call
OHCHR'S report said the biggest numbers of documented killings throughout the conflict have been recorded in the governorates of rural Damascus (17,800 deaths), Homs (16,400), and Aleppo (11,900).
The sharpest increases in deaths since November 2012 were recorded in the governorates which surround Damascus and Aleppo with 6,200 and 4,800 new documented deaths respectively.
OHCHR said the toll had been compiled by a non-profit organisation which specialises in statistical analysis, using the following steps:
The list was compiled using datasets from eight different sources, including figures from the Syrian government and activist groups
Each casualty was fully identified by the name of the victim, as well as the date and location of the death. Any reported killing that did not include at least these three elements was excluded
Each reported killing was compared to all the other reported killings in order to identify duplicates
The analysis was not able to differentiate consistently between combatants and non-combatants
OHCHR called for an immediate ceasefire "before tens of thousands more people are killed or injured".
UN human rights chief Navi Pillay: "There are well documented cases of individual children being tortured and executed"
Ms Pillay said that "states with influence could, if they act collectively, do a lot more to bring the conflict to a swift end, thereby saving countless more lives".
"Civilians are bearing the brunt of widespread, violent and often indiscriminate attacks which are devastating whole swathes of major towns and cities, as well as outlying villages," Ms Pillay said.
Lyse Doucet travelled to Damascus to meet the children who have been living with the war for the past two years
"Government forces are shelling and launching aerial attacks on urban areas day in and day out, and are also using strategic missiles and cluster and thermobaric bombs.
"Opposition forces have also shelled residential areas, albeit using less fire-power, and there have been multiple bombings resulting in casualties in the heart of cities, especially Damascus," she went on.
Also on Thursday, mortar rounds hit the edges of Damascus's airport, forcing delays to several flights. Syrian rebels have previously tried to seize the airport, which lies in the countryside around eastern Damascus known as the Ghouta. The area has seen fierce fighting in recent months.

On Thursday, February 7, David Smith-Ferri spoke at our Shul. For those who might not knowDavid, he is a slight, shy man. He loves his wife and daughter, but left them at home when heneeded to evaluate another's situation with his own eyes. He went to Iraq, again and again.
David read to us his poems, inspired by his experiences with the people of Iraq and his reaction totheir stories. He showed the faces of those (non-combatants) who found their bodies and livesaltered by the bombing.
What struck me most was what he and his friends did when faced with the pain of others, and theunfairness of their injuries they saw. They created an agency in Amman, Jordan that providesmedical care to Iraqi refugees.
They help choose the clients, they find the funds; when possible they connect with other agenciesthat can help these people. They make a difference in the lives of people who are not remotelyrelated to them.
All my life I have been told "It is not your problem," " Don't interfere," "Mind your own busi-ness," "You can't change the world." David felt the pain of others and took action. He is affecting the world.
One man living right here in Ukiah is making life better for one person at a time.
To contribute to David's efforts e-mail him at <smithferri@pacific.net> or The Direct Aid Initia-tive (DAI ) < www.directaidiraq.org>.
On a local level there are many in our Jewish community also committed to affecting the injusticeand pain in the world by seeing a need and taking action.

Set in Belgium in the early 70's, Left Luggage is an intensively emotional story of twoJewish families struggling to rebuild meaningful lives after their personal devastationduring the Shoah. Chaja, a rebellious philosophy student struggling to come of age in boththe secular and Jewish worlds, accepts a position as a nanny in a Chasidic family with 5children. Drawn to Simcha, the youngest, who doesn't speak, Chaja is forced to confrontand painfully reconcile which pieces of one's lost luggage must be left behind and whichare carried along throughout one's life.
This film is deeply thought provoking and is definitely not suggested for young audiences.

I've spent these past few days cutting my first CD. And it's been a lot of fun.
The motivation came from bar mitzvah students who found use of a practice tape ofprayers and songs to be archaic, and requested a CD with tracks for easy honing-in anddownloading.
Since the tape the kids had been using was one that I had made back in the 1990s for acongregation in Boulder, Colorado, it did make sense to me not only to move to CDformat,but to update the contents.
Now what does "update the contents" mean when we're talking about a Shabbat morningservice? The CD follows the basic setup of our KHE Shabbat morning siddur. In one sense, we'retraining our students to become familiar with a prayer format which enables them to enterany Jewish community in the world and recognize the basic elements of the service. Andyet, each congregation, let alone country ordenomination, develops its own style of prayerand rendition of songs.
How many of you grew up with particular prayers or parts of a service that feel all wrong toyou when you hear them sung to a different tune or "done" differently? The Boulder tape offers two different tunes for singing the Halleluyahs of Ps. 150, neitherof which is in current use at Kol HaEmek (nor were they the Halleluyahs I grew up with).
Even with our new KHE CD, choices had to be made, and so one Halleluyah tune isoffered, with options as to whether to sing it with or without verses.
This is the melody that our Shul School children know best. I didn't record another popularKHE Halleluyah tune (a Shefa chant often led by Harvey Frankle at Bnei Mitzvah ceremo-nies and holidays). At this writing, I have invited Harvey to record it for our CD. Hopefully,it will continue to thrive in our community whether or not it is part of the new CD.
I think it is a blessing that our services are not completely standardized, and may theynever be!When meeting with Bnei Mitzvah families to plan their ceremonies, we go through oursiddur and choose which versions of the classic prayers to use, and which optionalprayers, songs and readings to include. So no two Bnei Mitzvah services are ever exactlyalike.
Partly for this reason, we included in the CD renditions of Pitchu Li, Kol HaolamKulo, and Because of My Brothers and Friends, none of which are a traditional part of theSaturday morning liturgy, but all of which are in our prayer book and have been popularwith members of our community. And we put in Tov L'Hodot L'Adonai, which is in the liturgybut which we have rarely sung since I moved here, and yet I know it was regularly sung bythose who would meet for Saturday morning services in Willits some years back.
And the CD includes two different traditional hymns for ending a service (Eyn Keloheynuand Adon Olam) as well as the popular Od Yavo Shalom, which was created only a fewdecades ago and has swept the Jewish world, including our congregation, and which doesnot appear in the siddur at all.
While the immediate impetus for the recording was to meet the needs of our Bnei Mitzvahstudents, I do hope that the CD will enjoy a much larger listening audience! Anyone whowould like to become more familiar with the service will benefit from having a copy andusing it as a learning tool. So often people tell me that they don't come to servicesbecause of a "fear factor" of feeling awkward because of not knowing the service andtherefore feeling like an outsider. Well, here is a good solution to overcoming that obstacle.
The CD also offers a way of observing the Shabbat without actually coming to Saturdaymorning services at our Shul, which is handy since at KHE we favor Friday night obser-vance and don't currently have all that many Shabbat morning gatherings during the year.
I also recommend the CD for anyone who wants to deepen their spiritual practice, since,in my experience, simply listening to the prayers and songs shifts one's being into a moreconsciously sacred state. FYI, with the exception of a few tracks such as the Torah serviceand the Nishmat prayer, most of the items are part of the daily Shacharit (morning)prayer service, and so are very suitable for everyday prayer purposes--and certainly suit-able for everyday listening.

CBD Oil Highest Content is a liquid CBD Oil with a very high percentage of up to 30% CBD (Cannabidiol). This is the highest level that is available in our range of CBD oil drops.
Precise checks and quality control is carried out throughout the entire cultivation and production process, from sowing the hemp to the filling of the pipette bottles, to meet the high demands of a quality product.
For the CBD oil drops, officially recognized hemp varieties such as KC Dora and Santhica 70 and the varieties Futura 75 and Finola are used. All species are rich in cannabidiol while they contain extremely low levels of psychoactive THC.
Thanks to the minimal amounts of CBD, a mind-expanding effect is completely void, the user will not experience a stoned or high effect and can continue to perform work without problems. Any traces of THC that may be left within the oil will not cause any consciousness-altering effects whatsoever. This is thanks to the effect of the cannabinoid CBD, which is able to weaken the strength of the psychoactive cannabinoid. This makes this oil very effective and extremely suitable for administration in small children, older people or possibly animals.
The effectivity is entirely dependent on the presence and mutual relationships (ratios) of components, of the person and of the situation or the severity of the situation. When a certain product does not give the desired result, it may also be advisable to try a different composition.

Sun, Surf, and (Almost) a Century of Fun
It's not often that fun and history go hand in hand, but at the Balboa Fun Zone on the Balboa peninsula in the city of Newport Beach, California… that's exactly what happens.
What Is The Balboa Fun Zone
The Balboa Fun Zone is an iconic piece of Southern California history that started in 1936 when the owner of a failing boatyard leased his land on the peninsula to entrepreneur Al Anderson. Anderson quickly constructed a Ferris wheel and merry-go-round on the property, with kiddie rides and an arcade coming in later. That was when the Balboa Fun Zone moved from a boatyard to a family destination on the seaside of the Balboa peninsula.
Did you know? The Balboa auto ferry started in 1919 and is still in service today ferrying cars from Balboa Island to the Balboa peninsula. Each ferry takes up to three cars at a time, so wait times can be long during the summer months. Turnaround is fairly quick, though, since the trip across the harbor is relatively short.
Today, despite a series of ownership changes, the Balboa fun zone continues to offer nostalgic family-friendly, low-cost fun to everyone who wants to enjoy the sun, surf, and wind of the beautiful Balboa peninsula.
Let's take a look at what the Balboa Fun Zone has to offer visitors 85 years after its start as the Coney Island of the West Coast.
Balboa Fun Zone Ferry, Ferris Wheel & Rides
Go South For Fun
Get off the 55 South at Newport Boulevard and follow it eastward as it spears through Newport Island and you'll eventually find yourself going back in time to an era when a family outing meant a trip to the seaside, tasty hot dogs, calm ocean waves, and gorgeous ocean views from atop a slow-moving Ferris wheel.
Located at 600 East Bay Ave., suite R in Newport Beach, the Balboa Fun Zone stretches a modest two blocks. It runs from the ferry entrance at the intersection of Palm Street and Edgewater Place down to just past Main Street at East Bay Avenue.
Don't be fooled, though. There's a lot to do packed into that relatively small space, especially if you're a fan of old-school entertainment.
Did you know? Sharks were once used as fertilizer when trees were initially being planted on the Balboa peninsula.
Balboa Fun Zone Rides
Balboa Ferris Wheel
The main attraction at the Fun Zone is the Ferris wheel that overlooks the bay and provides panoramic views of the rest of the Balboa Peninsula and beyond.
The star attraction for the outdoor fun consists of one of the oldest rides available at the Fun Zone; namely what could be the world's longest Ferris wheel ride (at least that's what it says on the sign). There is a cost for rides but it's not exactly over quickly, and you get amazing views of the harbor and the rest of the Balboa Peninsula and beyond. If you time it right, you'll find yourself suspended against one of those gorgeous Southern California sunsets as it glitters over the water.
Purchase wheel tickets online here.
Pro-Tip: The Ferris wheel is independently owned and operated and has its own hours. Check here for all the information you need. Please note: children 16 and younger need to be accompanied by an adult, and tots under 2 years old aren't allowed at all.
Other kid-friendly blast from the past rides include:
The Happy Swing (admission is $5), where riders can pull a lot more Gs than they can on any old playground swing.
Ocean Motion, a bungee-jumper attraction that lets you flip and bounce like a human rubber ball.
Coconut Climb, where you can embrace your inner monkey on an attraction that puts a tropical twist on the standard outdoor climbing wall.
Balboa Fun Zone Tickets for Rides
Tickets for the fun zone rides are available at a clearly marked kiosk just past the rides.
Balboa Fun Zone Arcade
Outside on the boardwalk isn't the only place you can have fun at the Balboa Fun Zone. The retro game is strong here, and by "here" we mean the open air arcade. Open daily at 11AM, It contains such arcade classics as PacMan, Skee Ball, a claw machine, and that timeless favorite, the pinball machine.
Most games are $1 and a lot of them give tickets that your kids (or you) can redeem for cool loot at the redemption counter. Isn't that half the fun of a trip to an arcade?
When you're done defending your PacMan winning streak, step outside to a faceful of fresh sea air and maybe look around at the other rides that you might be too tired to try… until you grab some tasty beach-side classics at one of the many casual eateries in the Balboa Fun Zone.
Makers in the Zone
Makers in the Zone is a sunset celebration with local artists, designers and creators along with festive food and drink and live music. This event occurs every Thursday from 5 pm to 9 pm from May to September. Follow on Instagram for weekly updates on musicians and activities.
Balboa Fun Zone Restaurants & Bars
What's not good to eat at the Balboa Fun Zone. The area boasts a handful of reasonably priced seaside eats that are perfect for noshing at one of the many picnic tables or eating as you stroll.
Some of the highlights include:
Azar's Pizza for gourmet pizza (full pies or by the slice), salads, and beer. Get 10% off if you mention the ad on their website.
Balboa Bar-B-Que serves beef brisket, baby back ribs, pulled pork & hand made burgers with views of the harbor.
Balboa Beach Treats
Cruisers Pizza Bar & Grill is a relaxed choice for Chicago-style pies, sandwiches & weekend brunch, with daily happy hours.
Newport Landing for fresh seafood and an oyster bar overlooking the harbor.
Jane's Corndogs for fresh, hand-dipped meat in tube form and fresh lemonade. It doesn't get more beachy!
San Shi Go Sushi & Omakase is a go to locals spot with always fresh sushi and creative rolls. The outside is underwhelming and might deter a few tourists but those who know, know.
Balboa Saloon offers a selection of imported, domestic and craft-brewed beers and spirits in addition to a menu of pizza, sandwiches and munchies. Plus play English darts, American darts, billiards and other games as well as watch satellite sports. This is also the place where Australian rock band INXS filmed their music video for "The Devil Inside" as well as around Balboa.
If snacks are more your style, you can also find cotton candy, popcorn, and more beach concession foods.
Must Try Sweets: Balboa Bar & Frozen Banana
The Famous Balboa Bar and Frozen Banana's have been around for over 75 years and are a must have when visiting the Fun Zone.
Balboa Bar: A chocolate-dipped ice cream confection rolled in sweet or salty toppings.
Frozen Banana: A made-to-order, twice hand-dipped with chocolate , and then rolled in your favorite topping of choice.
Did you Know? The Balboa fun zone still holds one of the one of the last surviving examples of a waterfront recreational pavilion in California. The Balboa Pavilion is a registered historical monument that has a treasure trove of historical photos on the walls, so if you want to see what the area was in the early 20th century, this is where you'll go. Afterward, you can grab a lovely sit-down meal: the former bathing pavilion is now doing duty as the classy Harborside Restaurant, known for its excellent seafood and "the longest happy hour in town" (12 noon to 9pm every day).
What to Do On the Water at Balboa Fun Zone
The area that would be known as the Balboa Fun Zone got its start as a boatyard and it's never really gone far from its nautical roots. The area is still home to both the Catalina Flyer and the Balboa Island ferry. While the Flyer is one of the few ways to access the tiny island paradise of Catalina, the Balboa ferry strictly services Balboa island and Balboa peninsula. You can also book whale-watching tours or narrated harbor cruises.
Pro Tip: Taking the auto ferry is a cheap and fun way to get out on the harbor. You can take the auto ferry even if you don't have a car. The ferry will accommodate people, bikes, and motorcycles alongside your standard family car. Each type of passenger has its own unique (and cheap) rate… find them here.
Accessibility: The Balboa Island ferry is wheelchair accessible. Nonpowered wheelchairs board through a separate gate, while powered chairs may use the ramp.
If you prefer to have control over whatever boat you're on rather than letting someone else ferry you around, you can rent your own Duffy boat at Balboa Boat Rentals (give them a call at 949-673-7200). Feeling more adventurous? You can also try parasailing either solo or with a couple of your most courageous friends. Of course, there's nothing wrong with just sitting and watching the boats in the harbor, either.
Pro-Tip: Since the Balboa Fun Zone is an outdoor amusement zone, attractions may close unexpectedly. Keep an eye out for the weather.
Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade
Each holiday season the Fun Zone offers scenic views of The Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade. The parade lights up Newport Bay every holiday season with hundreds of boats that have draped their boats in lights to celebrate Christmas. The event also includes fireworks and other holiday-themed festivities.
The Balboa Fun Zone is an easy drive from the 55 South. Just follow the freeway until it turns into Newport Boulevard.
One of the beauties of the Balboa Fun Zone is that (aside from paying for parking) it's entirely free. With no entry fee necessary to access the fun, you're completely free to customize your experience. Whether you're entirely new to the area or you grew up coming here
You can walk the boardwalk and admire the ocean views, or you can go take advantage of some of the last retro amusements available in Southern California.
Parking in any seaside town is always a hassle, but it's particularly weather-dependent at the Balboa Fun Zone.
Pro-Tip: Hot weather? Get here before 10AM for the best chance at finding a good spot.
There are several city lots available for your parking needs. The Palm Street lot has a 2-hour maximum, but the larger lot that's further out on East Oceanfront is all-day.
Metered street parking is available if you can find it: meters do accept credit cards if you're not carrying a pocketful of quarters. Rates vary depending on whether it's off-season or not. Check the Newport Beach City site for full details.
What You Need to Know Before You Go
If reading this has you itching to pack up your beach towels and sunglasses, you're not alone. But before you head down to the Balboa Fun Zone for a dose of nostalgia-inducing entertainment, let us give you just a little more information to make your visit run smoothly.
The public restrooms are located in the Discovery Cube Ocean Quest building just past the Ferris wheel.
If you need cash, there's a standalone ATM by Newport Landing Sport Fishing.
Smoking isn't allowed in the Balboa Fun Zone, so plan accordingly if you just can't go without lighting up.
Autism/ADHD/Sensory Issues:
As fun zones go, the Balboa Fun Zone does contain areas that have bright lights, loud noises (the Arcade) and frequently has busy foot traffic patterns. Despite that, because it is an outside zone, it's easy to find places to sit and decompress if you have problems with sensory overloads.
Service Animals:
The Balboa Fun Zone is an outdoor boardwalk amusement venue. Leashed pets are always welcome (bring your poop bags for those inevitable moments when your fur baby can't hold it anymore). ADA-compliant service animals may, of course, follow you anywhere.
Most places on the Boardwalk are wheelchair accessible.
The Balboa Fun Zone is both a fun seaside amusement zone and a nostalgia-drenched glimpse into the past of this iconic seaside town. With no entry fee, accessible parking, a wide variety of activities, and a pay as you play structure, there's every reason to add a trip to the Balboa Fun Zone to your schedule today.

Motown luminaries turned out in big numbers Wednesday night to support "The Chairman," company founder Berry Gordy Jr., as "Motown: The Musical" made its Detroit debut at the Fisher Theatre, blocks from where it all started in 1959.
"It'll be the best performance they do because it's Detroit," said Gordy as he walked the red carpet. "My roots are here. My whole life has been a fairy tale, only it came true."
Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder and Mary Wilson were among the Motown stars who came to the Fisher in support of their former boss.
"It's a celebration of the culture of music that Berry Gordy did here," said Wonder.
The premiere is a seminal moment for the iconic Detroit label. In the same way that the 1983 special "Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever" represented a rebirth of popularity for the Motown Sound, this week's gathering for the musical's Detroit opening represents a similar convergence as Gordy and his stars put aside past differences to reflect upon an astonishing legacy.

Wonder, who flew in for the premiere Wednesday morning, told The Detroit News last week that he was looking forward to bonding with his fellow Motown clan but, most importantly, he wanted to pay homage to the founder.
"Obviously, Detroit is where it all began," Wonder said. "And I think the two people who have been the most undervalued for what they did for music and opportunity have been B.B. King and Berry Gordy Jr.
"It's simple, when you think of the Motor City, you think of Motown," Wonder said.
Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan had a similar message when he told a story Tuesday night from the stage of the Roostertail's "Motown Homecoming," about a trip he took to a remote village in Brazil. The mayor found himself trying to communicate with a hotel desk clerk who spoke no English. "I was trying to tell him where I was from, I said 'Michigan,' but it meant nothing," Duggan said. "But when I said 'Detroit,' he got a look in his eye. He said 'oh, Detroit, Motown!' and he started singing 'Ooo, baby baby.'
"Here's a 20-year-old clerk in Brazil who knew no English, but he knew a Smokey Robinson song," Duggan marveled.
Robin Terry, who chairs the Motown Historical Museum's Board of Trustees, has seen a resurgence of interest in Motown as the musical's road show travels the country.
"It's that powerful a collection of songs, that strong a bond of family, that great a cultural force where we are well over 50 years later and it's still inspiring people and drawing audiences," Terry said.
Emotional moments
Back in 1983, Gordy wasn't so happy about reuniting with the singers he'd discovered, many plucked from the streets of Detroit. Financially, Motown was in dire straits, and many of his stars had left the company that discovered and nurtured them for greener (as in more money) pastures — The Jackson 5 (except for Jermaine Jackson), Marvin Gaye and, most hurtful to Gordy, Diana Ross, with whom he had a past relationship.
This is the very drama that is at the crux of "Motown: The Musical." Its opening scene shows a disconsolate Gordy holed up in his Los Angeles estate, angry at what he saw as disloyalty from his former stars, and reflecting back on the early days in Detroit as he resolves not to go to the Pasadena Civic Auditorium for "Motown 25."
"It was clear that he had terrible mixed emotions about the whole thing," former Motown executive Suzanne de Passe said in a recent interview with The News. "In concept, I guess it didn't sound like a lot of fun for him. I did not know the troubles were as extensive and dramatic as they were, that he was having with the company. I was off doing what I was supposed to do, invigorate the brand and exploit the accomplishments of the artists and the company as much as possible. It was a real eye opener for me when it finally was disclosed that the company was in that much trouble. By then, we were well on our way to the civic center (for the special)."
"Motown 25," which was released last month as a deluxe DVD package, can be seen for the first time unexpurgated, with its Supremes reunion (and no, Ross didn't shove Wilson) and the first time the world saw Michael Jackson moonwalking to "Billie Jean."
It's emotional for any fan to watch, much less the artists who took part in it, because so many of the classic artists featured in it are now dead. "It's wonderful, but it's also sad," said Duke Fakir of the Four Tops, after watching, on the DVD set, so many of his fallen comrades: Marvin Gaye, Levi Stubbs of the Tops, Mary Wells and, of course, Michael Jackson.
'Where it all happened'
The stars who gathered at the Roostertail on Tuesday and at the Fisher Theatre on Wednesday for the premiere have seen their numbers diminish considerably. But those who are left are all the more determined to remind people what happened in Detroit in 1959.
"I had to be here to represent the Miracles," said founding member Claudette Robinson. Her cousin, the Miracles' Bobby Rogers, died last year; Ronnie White in 1995. The other remaining Miracle, except her ex-husband Smokey Robinson, is Pete Moore, who was too ill to fly in.
"The Miracles were the first group at Motown, and I was the first female," Claudette Robinson said. "I want people to remember what we did here. Detroit is where it all happened."
While writing the "book" for "Motown: The Musical," Gordy had to relive how devastated he felt in 1983, on the eve of "Motown 25."
"I had lost some of my big artists and I was trying to build new artists, with Rick James and the Commodores and Teena Marie and DeBarge," Gordy, 84, said in a telephone interview. "All of 'em were selling records, but when the results came in, the revenues I was losing from when the Jackson 5 and Marvin and Diana left, it wasn't enough to cover the expenses. So I didn't know what was going to be happening. But I knew one thing: I loved the artists, and I couldn't stay away. I had to go — for them."
And so they came to Detroit for him — the ones who left him and the ones he fired; the ones who felt they didn't get the proper attention, and even several who sued him (and whom he counter-sued).
After enduring various rewrites of Motown history that were hurtful, now that Gordy's been able to tell his own origin story in "Motown: The Musical," there's a certain peace about the long-driven Motown founder.
"This is a good time for him, just a good time," Terry said. "He's at the stage in his life where he's really stepped into the role of teacher. He's doing that in every way, with this cast, with his family, Motown alumni. He's in a space where he is imparting the wisdom that he has."
"We're closer today than we ever were," Gordy said of his long-contentious Motown family. After 50 years, and a lot of Detroit River water under the bridge, "It's just love."

Post-translational processing of rac p21s is important both for their interaction with the GDP/GTP exchange proteins and for their activation of NADPH oxidase

rac1 and rac2 p21s are ras p21-like small GTP-binding proteins which are implicated in the NADPH oxidase-catalyzed superoxide generation in phagocytes. rac1 and rac2 p21s have a Cys-A-A-Leu (A = aliphatic amino acid) structure in their C-terminal region which may undergo post-translational processing including prenylation, proteolysis, and carboxyl methylation. We studied the function of this post-translational processing of rac p21s in their interaction with the stimulatory and inhibitory GDP/GTP exchange proteins for rac p21s, named smg GDS and rho GDI, and in their NADPH oxidase activation. We produced human recombinant rac1 and rac2 p21s in insect cells and purified them from the membrane and soluble fractions as the post- translationally processed and unprocessed forms, respectively. Post- translationally processed rac1 and rac2 p21s were sensitive to both smg GDS and rho GDI, but post-translationally unprocessed rac1 and rac2 p21s were insensitive to them. The GTPγS (guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate)-bound form of post-translationally processed rac1 and rac2 p21s stimulated the NADPH oxidase activity, but post-translationally unprocessed rac1 and rac2 p21s were far less effective. These results indicate that both rac1 and rac2 p21s stimulate the NADPH oxidase activity and that their post-translational processing is important not only for their interaction with smg GDS and rho GDI but also for their NADPH oxidase activation.

We studied the function of this post-translational processing of rac p21s in their interaction with the stimulatory and inhibitory GDP/GTP exchange proteins for rac p21s, named smg GDS and rho GDI, and in their NADPH oxidase activation. We produced human recombinant rac1 and rac2 p21s in insect cells and purified them from the membrane and soluble fractions as the post- translationally processed and unprocessed forms, respectively. Post- translationally processed rac1 and rac2 p21s were sensitive to both smg GDS and rho GDI, but post-translationally unprocessed rac1 and rac2 p21s were insensitive to them. The GTPγS (guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate)-bound form of post-translationally processed rac1 and rac2 p21s stimulated the NADPH oxidase activity, but post-translationally unprocessed rac1 and rac2 p21s were far less effective. These results indicate that both rac1 and rac2 p21s stimulate the NADPH oxidase activity and that their post-translational processing is important not only for their interaction with smg GDS and rho GDI but also for their NADPH oxidase activation.

Q: Make jQuery sortable items droppable to their peers I have a sortable list (of tasks). It helps prioritize tasks, so I want to keep this functionality. Now I want to add subtasks to the functionality: I want to enable users to drag one task over to another task and drop it there to turn it into a subtask.
Applying .draggable() and .droppable() to items that are already sortable has no effect. What could I do?

A: I put together a demo of how to do this... but it may not be the best method. Here are some problems I've discovered:

*

*Because this code uses the placeholder to figure out where you are moving the list, you can only drop an item inside another item if you approach it from the top. I did get a working version where you could drop an item anywhere inside the base item, but the code was just too messy and cumbersome.

*Sometimes when an item from the other list is dropped in an item, it becomes stuck. I'm not sure why, but it becomes unstuck when the list group is moved to the other list.

I'm sure there is a better method, one that calculates the intersection of list items (just like the sortable script does). But this is a quick and dirty method.
$(function() {
    var phTop, container, indx;
    $("#sortable1, #sortable2").sortable({
        connectWith: '.connectedSortable',
        beforeStop: function(e,ui){
            phTop = ui.placeholder.position().top;
            container = ui.placeholder.parent();
            indx = ui.placeholder.index();
        },
        stop: function(e,ui){
            var list = container.find('> li').eq(indx);
            // 15 is a pixel tolerance between the two items (dragging in from the top)
            if ( Math.abs( phTop - ui.position.top ) < 15 ) {
                // prevent list depth > 1
                if (ui.item.find('li').length > 0) { return; }
                // add ul inside of li to make subgroup
                if (!list.find('ul').length) { list.append('

'); }
                ui.item.appendTo( list.find('> ul') );
            }
            container.find('li > ul:empty').remove(); // remove empty subgroups
        }
    }).disableSelection();
});

A: After I posted my question I had no patience, and I decided to ignore UI.sortable altogether, building the required functionality from draggable and droppable and using special divs as spacers that would swell up on dragover to facilitate dropping in between tasks.
That worked to some degree, except it's all much more code and it's a lot more jittery and bugprone than sortable, even with the refreshPositions option set to true. Still, there might be other valid reasons to want to circumvent UI.sortable.
In very brief faux code: $(.taskitem).draggable
revert: invalid
start: animate height of spacers from 0 to 5
$(.spacer).droppable
over: animate height from 5 to 50
out: animate height back to 5
drop:   insert draggable after spacer
find spacer with same index as draggable and move it along

DRESDEN, Germany —
Musicians have taken to the roofs of apartment blocs with alphorns in the German city of Dresden to perform a concert featuring distant harmonies at a time when cultural events have been disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic.
The Dresdner Sinfoniker orchestra's performance on Saturday, titled "The Sky above Prohlis," saw 16 alphorns, nine trumpets and four tubas set up nearly 50 meters (164 feet) above the ground on the roofs of tower blocks in the city's Prohlis district. Drums and other percussion instruments were set at a nearby car park on top of a shopping center.
Organizers say the roughly one-hour performance, which comes as social distancing rules remain in place in Germany as well as some restrictions on cultural events, was made up of compositions which "all embrace the idea that several groups of musicians communicate over great distances."
They said the event "is also an answer to the pandemic crisis," with musicians hundreds of meters apart.
Local people took in the show from balconies and in the district's streets.
Saturday's program included "Fanfare," composed for the 1984 Olympic Games by John Williams, a work from 400 years earlier by Venetian composer Giovanni Gabrieli and a newly commissioned piece by Markus Lehmann-Horn.

Divine revelation is a definite and self-contained entity. Even after its revelation if supplementary materials for human guidance are needed then it would be considered a lack or an inadequacy of the divine revelation. At all places in the Qur'an where divine guidance has been alluded to, it has been clarified beyond doubt that whenever such guidance was sent, it was sent in the most comprehensive form, including all details related to it. Verses like ثم آتينا موسى الكتاب تماماً (Al- Ina'm: 154) and وكتبنا له في الألواح من كل شئي موعظة و تفصيلا لكل شئي (Al- A'raf: 145), in fact, point to the fact that after the revelation of Torah, the Israelites did not need any other supplementary sources for their guidance. The attitude of the Qur'an towards its addressee, as evidenced in verses like – افغير الله ابتغى حكما وهو الذي أنزل إليكم الكتاب مفصلاَ(Al- Ina'm: 115) is a pointer to its nature of being complete, comprehensive and definitive. Be they the Divine scrolls revealed to earlier prophets or the Qur'an revealed to Prophet Muhammad, if they do not have the status of being the primary and seminal sources of guidance, then they raise questions about the very nature of the divine revelation. As the Qur'an is the final document in the chain of divine revelations, it has the status of the guide to humanity after the Prophet. This is the reason why it includes the wisdom revealed to the past prophets. The style of the Qur'an at numerous places aims at teaching lessons to the present community through the narration of the stories of the earlier communities. These parables provide them the guidance to lead life righteously. وما كان هذا القرآن أن يفترى من دون الله ولكن تصديق الذي بين يديه وتفصيل الكتب لا ريب فيه من رب العالمين (Yunus: 37).
The allusions in the Qur'an to the earlier prophets and their descriptions should be seen in their historical perspective. The Israelites who are known to have built a thick barrier of interpretive literature around the Divine Revelation, and who have piled up so much ancillary sources of elucidation and interpretation around Talmud that practically the Pentateuch has been overshadowed by them in matters of providing guidance to the community. They are among the people who have been given احسن تفصيلاَ لكل شئي But they considered the Divine Book inadequate and built a veritable jungle of interpretive literature around it. As a result they strayed from the path of Divine guidance and began to follow the judgment of the people. Despite having a comprehensive Book ( كتاباً تفصيلاً) among them, the search for divine revelations outside it was a pursuit that, despite their deep religiosity, led the Israelites to a dead end. The frequent allusions in the Qur'an about the comprehensive Book in the context of the past communities and then drawing attention of the Muslims to the fact that the most comprehensive Book has been revealed to the Prophet are meant to forewarn them about this danger lest they also, at some particular moment of their history, begin to consider this comprehensive and clear Book as inadequate, and like the rabbis and Pharisees of the earlier communities, the scholars of Islam build a similar barrier of interpretive and elucidatory literature around the Divine Revelation.
The way the Qur'an reprimands the earlier communities for their deviation from the true religious path and aberrations in their thoughts makes it amply clear that deviation in religion emanates from misguided religious thinking. It is not possible for the clergy to become deities or prophets or lawgivers without according a high status to history and interpretation. If history takes the place of Divine Revelation or takes precedence over it, in both these cases the clergy usurps the right to explain and interpret Divine Revelation. When the Israeli rabbis attempt to derive laws from the sayings of the elders ignoring the commandments in Pentateuch, they, in fact, accord history as holy a status as the Divine Revelation, through their interpretation. This barrier of history around the Divine Revelation in the context of the earlier prophets has come under discussion in the Qur'an that regards it as a serious aberration. If one comes to think of it, in history, the harm caused by the so-called religious thinking to religion has been greater than that caused by any non-religious or oppositional, even inimical thinking. History can thickly overlay Divine Revelation, and if it wears the cloak of holiness, it can strike Divine Revelation from within. While those who make opposition to Divine Revelation their main objective, operate from outside the bounds of history. They either get marginalised on the periphery of history or history itself throws them in a morgue like a paralysed part where, despite all their historical importance, they get frozen in the trashcan of history. However, sacred history that strikes Divine Revelation from within and, despite the presence of the Divine Text, creates a wedge of interpretation and elucidation around it that makes Divine Revelation almost redundant. Like the earlier communities, if Muslims of today have started regarding the Qur'an as a book of holy practices rather than the Book of Guidance, its main reason is the attack of the sacred history from within.
For common people, the personality of the Prophet is something of a paradox and its balanced assessment is not possible without the strictest scrutiny of the Divine Revelation. To accept a person just like oneself as a prophet demands an extraordinary intellectual leap. It is like walking on a bridge thinner than hair and sharper than a sword. The acceptance or denial of the Prophet is such a thin line that determines the birth of two communities. The Prophet is neither absolutely human nor angelic. Those who are ready to recognise only his human aspects deny his apostleship, and those who regard him as purely angelic exaggerate this particular aspect of his personality and, in a way, defeat the very purpose of apostleship. Between these two extremes of denial (kufr) and associationsim or polytheism (shirk), the recognition of the Prophet is an extremely delicate task, and it is not always possible for societies to do it properly in all situations. It is not at all surprising if the events surrounding a person with whom God may be in dialogue, or on whom His message is revealed, and whose existence defines the relationship between the heavens and the earth, take on the aspect of holiness and forms a sacred history in the succeeding years.
History has its own temptations, especially the history which defines the relationship between the heavens and the earth, or which encompasses the occasions and circumstances of Divine Revelation. It is neither possible for the believers to regard them as mere facts of history and read them as such, nor is it desirable on an emotional or conscious level. The way the lofty attributes of the Prophet have been mentioned in the Qur'an [محمد رسول الله والذين معه (Al- Fatah: 29)] strengthens the belief that it is not a common history, but the sayings of those great human beings whose lofty and sacred attributes have provided a successful model for the future. However, the role human perception plays in awarding a particular status to history and investing it with sacred and angelic qualities, so that it serves as a model, makes a great difference because the human perception or human recording of history cannot be equated with Divine perception or Revelatory truth. The earlier communities had committed the same mistake regarding the historical accounts and practices of their prophets. Rather than depending solely on Divine information regarding the Divine Revelation, they accorded human history an immutable and sacred status, paving the way for the substitution of Divine Revelation with human history.
The Israelites not only accorded the times and practices of Moses the status of sacred history, regarding them as oral Divine Revelation as opposed to the written Divine Revelation of Moses. They went still further and gave currency to the belief that the written Divine Revelations can be properly understood only through the oral Divine Revelations. Thus, history was not only equated with Divine Revelation, but got precedence over it in matters of interpretation and elucidation. Christ who had come basically to retrieve the lost sheep of the Israelites and who was greatly upset by the spectacle of meaningless debates among the rabbis and Pharisees on matters of Jurisprudence considered the barrier of interpretive literature around Torah to be a rejection of the Book itself. Criticising the attitude of the Pharisees towards religion when Christ said, "They sift flies and swallow camels" he was, in fact, referring to the particular juristic school of human judgements (aara al-rijal) that had almost rejected Torah in preference to times and practices of the prophet of the time. Christ's call to true religion created a stir in the still and stagnant pool of the religious thinking of the Israelites. However, in the subsequent years, when this call changed its tone and tenor in the hands of his followers because of the changing political and evangelical configurations, when he began to be seen as Prophet for the whole world instead of a bringer of glad tidings and counsellor to the Israelites. For the Israelites only, and when, far away from the practices of Bethlehem and Jerusalem, the followers of Christ spread to different corners of the world for evangelical purposes, then the practices and days of Christ assumed as much importance as the message of Christ. Christ's teachings based on Divine Revelation got mixed up with his times and practices in such a way that what to speak of separating them from one another, a new belief was formed with reference to the Word of God that Christ himself was the very embodiment of the Divine Revelation and that as long as he lived on the earth, every moment that he spent, every act that he did, every message that he transmitted, and every policy that he undertook was guided by it. As for their historical consciousness, the Israelites regarded themselves as a community that had a deep sense of the importance of history. It has been their strong belief that as the followers of Torah, they have a special place in the Divine scheme of things. They believe that they took upon themselves the responsibility of Torah at a moment when all other communities, because of their deplorable state, were not ready to accept this responsibility. The awareness of this special status actuated the Israelites not only to make all possible efforts to preserve their history, but also accorded it a much higher status than it deserves. Christ himself was the severest critic of such a view of history that invests it with holiness, and he passed the strongest strictures on historical jurisprudence and rabbinic laws. What is surprising is that his followers not only placed history and Divine Revelation on the same footing, but went a step further and conferred on history the status of the Divine Revelation. It might be that Christ's companions did not write the testaments from this angle of holy history, in practice, however, these books are now read not as books of history but as books of Divine Revelation, or at least, as the genuine manifestations of Divine Revelation. In this continuum, if the times and practices of Prophet Muhammad are accorded a sacred status, or like the earlier communities, if the followers of Prophet Muhammad begin to see wahi ghair matlu in his sayings and practices, it will simply be an extension of the deviant historical attitude coming down from the earlier ages.
The age of Prophet Muhammad with all its circumstances and ethos is certainly very important. However, unlike Moses or Christ or other prophets who were sent to particular communities or regions, the apostleship of Muhammad was meant for the whole universe and, as the last and final Prophet, his teachings were to be valid till doomsday. If the Prophet who was meant for the whole humanity and whose status was to remain intact till the Final Hour is seen merely as a historical character, limited by time and space, and if the cultural manifestations around him are considered to have impact on the model or sunnah provided by him, then it is quite natural that questions would be raised about his mission that transcends history. Then one cannot deny the truth that however much we accord the times and practices of the Prophet the status of history or sacred history and follow it reverentially or regard it as a precedent, a return to the age and time of the Prophet is not possible for us on a historical plane. Whether the age of the Prophet is equated with Divine Revelation or whether it is regarded as pure history, on the levels of both emotion and intellect, we can only do this much that we put the seal of our belief on the information coming to us after being filtered through history. However, it would be essential for those who want to see Muhammad as the Prophet of the present and the future, beyond the confining bounds of time and space, that rather than depending on human sources and human perceptions regarding the Prophet's time and his practices, they should seek guidance from the Divine Revelation itself, where his (Prophet's) teachings and practices would be found here and there like sparks of authentic history. A history that is not simply fossilized information but that contains intimations for the future.
 The embellishment of the law by the Pharisees and Sadducees (rabbis of Jesus' day) were condemned by Jesus in Matthew 15:6, Luke 11:46, 52 and in other similar verses.
Under these circumstances, Jesus Christ had to make the fossilized and soulless attitude the target of his attack in his Sermon on the Mount.

Organized into 12 chapters, this book begins with an explanation of the utilization of piles. • Infer geotechnical strength of pile (for driven piles and bored piles up to 1,mm and about 20m depth); • Ensure piles are not damaged The global piling industry is still heavily relying on pile driving formulae from the 's, rather than testing piles on Size: 5MB.
Theory and Practice of Pile Foundations is: illustrated with case studies accompanied by practical applications in Excel and MathCad the first book to incorporate nonlinear interaction into pile Author: Wei Dong Guo.
Pile foundations (Fig. ), where decay is present, do not necessarily lose their load-carrying capacity to such an extent that replacement becomes the sapwood of timber piles is deteriorated, the remaining heartwood section might still have sufficient load-carrying capacity.

Piles and Pile Foundations - CRC Press Book Piled foundations are generally designed using empirical methods, in particular the traditional capacity based approach on which the majority of codes of practice are based.
Pile foundations are used in the following situations: When there is a layer of weak soil at the surface. This layer cannot support the weight of the building, so the loads of the building have to bypass this layer and be transferred to the layer of stronger soil or rock that is below the weak layer.
Pile Foundation Pile foundations are deep foundations used when the site has a weak shallow bearing strata making it necessary to transfer load to a deeper strata either by friction or end bearing principles. The Design of Piled Foundations, Second Edition focuses on the theories which have been advanced to predict the loads which piles will carry, both singly and when used in groups to form a piled foundation.
Organized into 12 chapters, this book begins with an explanation of the utilization of Edition: 2. Piled foundations are generally designed using empirical methods, in particular the traditional capacity based approach on which the majority of codes of practice are based.
However in recent years the analysis of pile groups and piled rafts has undergone substantial development in the light of new research and the mechanisms for the.
Based on the composition of materials, piles are classified as timber piles, concrete piles, sand piles, or steel piles. 1)Bearing piles are driven into the ground until a hard stratum is reached.
Bearing piles rest on hard strata and act as pillars to support the structure.Fig Pile Foundation Transfer Imposed Load to a Soil. Factors Affecting Cost of Pile Foundation.
Obviously, final decision on using the type of foundation cannot be made based on the estimation of excavation volume and concrete quantity of deep mat or strip foundation in comparison with cost of piles that support the same : Madeh Izat Hamakareem.Pile foundations is a very vast subject and it is not possible to cover all the information regarding pile foundations in one book or presentation.
The objective of this presentation is to give an overall view of the subject which will serve as beginners guide. The focus of the presentation is mainly on onshore pile foundations.
