After 'scheduled delivery' service, Flipkart now plans to introduce 'scheduled installation'.
After rolling out 'scheduled delivery' service earlier this year, e-commerce portal Flipkart now plans to introduce new service 'scheduled installation'. According to sources, the e-commerce portal is planning to launch the service before the festive season kicks off this year.
The new feature will allow customers to choose a specific date and time for installation of consumer durables such as air conditioners and televisions bought from Flipkart.
Small steps have already been taken by the e-commerce portal as currently a customer gets a call from one of the service managers of Flipkart, after the purchase of a large appliance. The manager takes a note of a preferred day for installation, which is sent to the manufacturer. "When customers order large appliances, our customer service team asks them for preferred dates for installation of the same," added Chari.
This is not the first time Flipkart has introduced a new after-sales service. In May, the e-commerce site announced a subscription-based service for customers called Flipkart First. Under the service, it offers a host of exclusive benefits to loyal customers. Next, it launched the scheduled delivery service in four cities including Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata in June this year.
Analysts feel with e-commerce portals now focusing on after-sales service, the e-tailing business in India is finally moving out of the shadow of deals and discounts. According to a recent study by Technopak, a management consulting firm, the Indian e-commerce market, which is currently pegged at $2.3 billion, is expected to touch $32 billion by 2020. "The game of e-tailing is no more about offering products and services at cheap rates as pricing no longer allows one to be different from its competitors. E-tailing sites have realised this and so are offering various after-sales services that will help in creating as well as maintaining differentiation," said Ankur Bisen, senior vice-president, retail, Technopak Advisors.

Five groups in the initial stage of the Cadet Boys' Team event at the 2018 Chinese Taipei Junior and Cadet Open; at the close of play on the opening day, Wednesday 22nd August, the highest rated outfits all finished in first places in their respective groups. Seeding was justified.
However, there were some tense moments; especially for the no.2 seeds, Iran's Radin Khayyam and Navid Shams, as well as for the Hong Kong 'A' duo comprising Choy Chun Kit and Yu Nok, the no.3 seeds.
Radin Khayyam and Navid Shams needed the full five matches to overcome the Chinese Taipei 'C' combination of Zou Shang-Cheng, Wang Guan-Ru and Tsai Li-Yang, the latter two forming the doubles partnership.
Eventual success and the group completed without defeat but that was not the situation for Choy Chun Kit and Yu Nok. They recorded a three-nil win in opposition to the Singapore 'A' pairing of Izaac Quek Yong and Andy Wong Yan Kai, before experiencing a three-two defeat at the hands of Chinese Taipei 'D' represented by Kuo Chan-Yin and Chuang Chia-Chuan; a contest in which the latter duo made a quite remarkable recovery.
Yu Nok gave Hong Kong the ideal start by beating Kuo Chan-Yin (9-11, 12-10, 11-9, 11-8), before Choy Chun Kit overcame Chuang Chia-Chuan to double the lead (11-6, 12-10, 13-15, 11-8). It was at that stage the Chinese Taipei revival began; the doubles was secured (11-8, 12-10, 8-11, 11-9), before Chuang Chia-Chuan accounted for Yu Nok (11-9, 12-10, 11-8) and Kuo Chan-Yi prevailed against Choy Chun Kit (11-6, 11-7, 12-10) to seal the victory.
Success for Kuo Chan-Yin and Chuang Chia-Chuan reserved second place in the group and progress to the main draw. Earlier they had experienced a three-one defeat at the hands of Izaac Quek Yong and Andy Wong Yan Kai; thus match ratio determined the outcome. The Hong Kong pair finished in top spot (5:3), followed by Chinese Taipei 'D' (4:5) and Singapore 'A' (3:4). Team finishing in first and second positions in each group advanced to the main draw; thus for the Singaporeans, it was the end of the road.
Testing times for Iran and Hong Kong; for Belgium's Adrien Rassenfosse and Nicolas Degros, the top seeds, there were no such problems. Similarly, the no.4 seeds, the Hong Kong 'B' combination of Baldwin Chan Chan Ho Wah and Yiu Kwan To topped their group, as did the Chinese Taipei 'A' team combination of Li Hsin-Yu, Huang Yan-Cheng and Li Yan-Jun.
Play in the Cadet Boys' Team event concludes on Thursday 23rd August.

Jon Batiste to perform at President Biden's first state dinner
Posted By: Staff
President Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden are hosting their first White House dinner and have tapped Grammy-winning artist Jon Batiste to perform. The Bidens will be hosting French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Mrs. Brigitte Macron. A statement issued by the White House read, in part: "President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden will host President Emmanuel Macron and Mrs. Brigitte Macron of France for a State Visit to the United States, which will include a state dinner, on December 1, 2022."
Batiste announced the performance on his social media accounts, writing: "From Kenner to the White House" (Baptiste is a native of Kenner, Louisiana). Vanessa Valdivia, a spokesperson for first lady Jill Biden, said in a statement: "An artist who transcends generations, Jon Batiste's music inspires and brings people together. We're thrilled to have him perform at the White House for the first state dinner of the Biden-Harris administration."
Baptiste won five Grammys this year after being nominated in categories including R&B, jazz, classical, and roots music. His album, 'We Are' won the Grammy for Album of the Year. The 36-year-old Batiste led the band for the Late Show with Stephen Colbert for the last seven years, departing in August to more fully pursue music.

"I'm a 34-year-old NBA center. I'm black. And I'm gay." With this simple statement, veteran NBA player Jason Collins became the first active, openly gay, male athlete in a major United States professional sports league. Collins, who has played for the Boston Celtics and Washington Wizards, is not a household name like Lebron James or Kobe Bryant; however, his coming out has reignited the ever-important discussion on sexual orientation in sports.
Collins' announcement has garnered an extreme amount of public support, indicating that the times are indeed changing. From President Barack Obama to Steve Nash and Martina Navratilova, individuals from many facets of society have issued statements both supporting Collins and thanking him for his bravery.
In a way, this is not so different from when Earvin 'Magic' Johnson announced to the world that he was HIV-positive. Johnson was most likely not the first NBA player to contract HIV, but his decision to go public about his condition ignited the conversation and made it okay for other players to do the same. Collins is a catalyst in much the same way.
I am hopeful that since Collins has 'raised his hand,' other gay athletes will now feel confident raising theirs. Now, other athletes can see that to most of their peers, sexual orientation means nothing and performance on the court means everything.
Since the repeal of "Don't ask, don't tell", men's professional sports have really been the last bastion of sexual intolerance. The widespread support for Collins, especially from the Wizards' GM, leads me to believe that professional sports are moving toward a more progressive stance.
The issue of an openly gay male athlete in professional sports has been the elephant in the room for too long. Thanks to Jason Collins, people finally feel comfortable talking about the issue and hopefully soon, will come to embrace it.

The Cliks
The cliks Übertragung läuft
" It's remarkable that something so good can come from feeling so bad. As is the case of most great art, Toronto trio the Cliks have dredged the emotional mire of the past two years to create Dirty King, a rich rock extravaganza showcasing a sonic expansion for the band. With music as textured and layered as the deeply varied emotional terrain it treads, feeling bad never sounded so good.
Composed from a place of deep turmoil, lead singer Lucas Silveira began work on the Cliks' second album following the highly successful tours behind sophomore release Snakehouse. The band's incendiary live shows became the calling card by which they were known, and in short order, musical heroes Ian Astbury of the Cult and Cyndi Lauper hand-picked the band for their respective tours. Late-night bookers were listening too, and soon the Cliks found themselves on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, not to mention a very special performance Lucas did with Cyndi Lauper on Jimmy Kimmel Live! The band picked up momentum and fans when Logo awarded them the NewNowNext Artist On the Brink Award which ultimately led to an appearance on teenybopper mecca TRL to discuss their plans for the future.
Though critically lauded and publicly adored, Silveira returned road weary and emotionally shattered. Having spent 400 days on the road touring behind Snakehouse, Silveira was eager to return home, but home wasn't the reprieve he'd hoped it would be. "The album is based around defeat, lies, deception, loss of trust in others and yourself," explains Silveira. "I wrote the album coming from a really lonely place." Indeed, the album plumbs difficult depths in the form of relationships and identity politics, as did the band's Warner Music debut, Snakehouse, but here, there is a redemptive quality absent from the band's previous output. The price of that, however, is eternal vigilance. "Dirty King is more about having risen out of the ashes, being on your feet, but constantly having to dodge people trying to knock you down," says Silveira.
With their rise out of the ashes comes new sonic territory for the band. Their most adventurous album to date finds the band teamed with producer-engineer Sylvia Massy (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tool) at her Weed, California based Radio Star Studios. "She's my kind of producer," says drummer Morgan Doctor. "She doesn't come from a singer-songwriter background, but an engineering background, so she's more about creating sound and texture in the studio." Massy's studio -- filled with enough amps, effects and instruments to make it a veritable playground for musicians – served as the band's bedrock to create the full range of the album's sounds and correlating emotions, from the jagged rock of its denials to the soulful balladry of its admissions.
The album's namesake, and perhaps the clearest distillation of Silveira's emotional state during the writing of the album, is "Dirty King." Based on the gulf between how Silveira felt and how he was perceived, the song slides in on a surf guitar riff as Silveira alternates between a vamp and growl, teasing out the chorus in a voice that manages to sound menacing and seductive at once. Elsewhere, the band changes gears on the mournful "Not Your Boy" and "Emily," the catchiest evidence of the band's expanding sound. "'Emily' is definitely a big leap for the Cliks as a band, but for myself as a songwriter, I have lots of songs like this under my belt. I just never introduced them to the band because I didn't feel like it was 'Cliks' material," says Silveira of the waltzing, string-laden track that's more dulcet than biting. The song's inclusion is a testament to the direction of Massy, who encouraged Silveira to continue writing after he'd played her an early version. The song also demonstrates Massy's analog approach, and the adventurousness of the band. Where most producers would have downloaded the sound of glass breaking to use on the track, the band and producer headed out onto the streets of Weed to procure their own found noise. "We were out late at night on the main street of Weed, breaking a huge piece of glass and recording it live," says Doctor.
Dirty King also sees the band writing together, as well as playing. After bassist Jen Benton wrote the bassline for "Career Suicide" while on tour, she began playing it at soundcheck. Doctor suggested she continue developing it, and ultimately all three would collaborate to write it. "On tour Lucas and I came up with the pre-chorus together, [and] we put together the chorus and the bridge, which was written to a very rhythmically defined beat Morgan came up with," says Benton. "It was a great experience for [us]."
Despite themselves, the Cliks couldn't help but make a record that made order out of tumult and sense out of turbulence. With pop hooks lacing the rock spines The Cliks are known for, the songs inhabit the specificity of the circumstances under which they were written, all the while appealing to broader audience ."

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today Benchling, the data management and collaboration platform built to advance life sciences research, announced it has closed $14.5M in Series B funding. The round was led by Benchmark, with participation from F-Prime Capital, a global venture capital firm associated with Fidelity Investments, and returning investor Thrive Capital. Benchmark General Partner Eric Vishria will be joining the board of directors.
The new funding comes as the company's ARR skyrocketed 500% and its customer base tripled year-over-year. Today, more than 100,000 scientists across enterprises and academia are using Benchling. Since its last funding round in 2016, Benchling has seen leading pharmaceutical and biotech customers, such as Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Incyte, Editas Medicine, Agenus, Zymergen, and Obsidian Therapeutics, standardize on its R&D platform.
Historically, biologics comprised a small percentage of pharmaceutical pipelines. Today, biologics are widely acknowledged to be the drugs of the future, making up 40% of the pipeline. The importance of biologics will only increase as breakthroughs like CRISPR impact not only pharmaceuticals but also industries like agriculture and energy. Despite these advancements, scientists are often stuck with archaic systems to track their work, including paper notebooks, offline spreadsheets, and legacy on-premise software, delaying critical decisions around research and experiments. Seeing this problem firsthand, the Benchling team created a purpose-built platform to give scientists the ability to compile and organize comprehensive data on all of their R&D programs. Due to Benchling's platform, customers report up to a 4X increase in productivity and up to a 67% reduction in emails to collaborate on their research.
The company empowers R&D teams with a suite of unified applications to encourage active collaboration, design and track biologics research, and accelerate the production and retention of knowledge.
With this new round of funding, Benchling plans to accelerate product development and continue growing its team, which recently added the talents of Kaiser Mulla-Feroze as Chief Marketing Officer, who previously spent a decade at Salesforce before heading up marketing at Totango; and Sam Partovi, formerly VP of Sales at Medidata Solutions, where he played a key role in scaling the business into the hundreds of millions in revenue. Additionally, the company will focus on growing its customer base, which includes enterprise companies and some of the world's most renowned research labs at universities such as Harvard, MIT, UC Berkeley, and Stanford.
Benchling is the leader in cloud-based informatics for life science R&D. The company offers a unified R&D platform purpose-built for biologics, including solutions for Lab Notebook, Molecular Biology, Bioregistration, Sample Tracking, and Request & Workflow Management. Benchling is used by over 100,000 scientists globally throughout multinational pharmaceutical corporations, emerging biotechnology companies, and major research institutions.

SANTA CLARA COUNTY / Trips to Israel teach counterterror tactics / U.S. law enforcers experience life in strife-torn country
News // Bay Area & State
Stacy Finz, Chronicle Staff Writer
Santa Clara County Sheriffs Laurie Smith took a recent trip to Israel to learn more about counter - terrorism. Photo by Michael Maloney / San Francisco ChronicleMichael Maloney
It had been a long time since the Santa Clara County sheriff did a police ride-along. She sat cramped in the backseat of the small patrol car as it veered down city streets.
It was a busy night, but mostly routine stuff like a couple of burglaries. She and the cops she was riding with were also called to check out reports of two suspicious packages. The first time, one of the officers got out of their car, hovered over the transparent sack, poked it a bit and determined that it was nothing more than a grocery bag. On the second one, they called in the bomb squad.
Sheriff Laurie Smith never found out whether that package contained explosives. The special bomb team dealt with it swiftly and quietly.
This might have been an unusual night in the South Bay. But it was a normal one in Tel Aviv, Israel, where Smith was learning counterterrorism measures from a country widely regarded as one of the world's leading authorities on security.
After Sept. 11 and this month's terror attacks in London, suicide bombings have become a realistic fear in this country -- especially in the Bay Area.
"We're important in the world market," Smith said, referring to the pecuniary significance of Silicon Valley. "There is no reason why it can't happen here."
Although the crime rate is relatively low in Israel compared with the United States, acts of terrorism there are everyday events. So, the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs and other such organizations sponsor programs for U.S. law enforcement agents to visit Israel, learn its police and military strategies for combatting terrorism, view its latest technology and see firsthand what it's like to live in a strife-torn country.
Police departments across the United States are taking advantage of the training. Smith went for nine days in April. Last year, the Alameda County Sheriff's Department sent Gregory Ahern, a commander in the office, to the Nesh-AR Training Institute in Jerusalem.
"The entire nation takes security to heart, and its people have made it their entire lives," Ahern said while flipping through photographs of his trip last September.
But the rush to Israel has many Muslim groups concerned that U.S. law enforcement agents will begin using draconian measures, including religious and ethnic profiling.
"Many of Israel's policies have been condemned by the international humanitarian community," said William Youmans, a spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations' Northern California chapter. "But I trust that the American authorities will use their judgment in what they bring back."
Israeli officials say they are able to prevent 96 percent of the terrorist plots against their country. Neither Smith nor Ahern takes sides in this disagreement. They say they went there to see if there were any tools they could bring back and steered clear of the politics.
For Smith, the trip was informative, but she said the likelihood that local authorities will wind up using many of Israel's tactics is slim.
"We're not where Israel is, and we're fortunate that we're not," she said. "I think the Israelis are forced to live and breathe it."
For that reason, Smith said, Israelis are willing to give up personal rights to a degree that Americans might not stand for. It's not unusual for shoppers or patrons in Israel to be searched before going into a mall or nightclub, Smith said. Armed security guards are everywhere, patrolling shopping centers, bars, hotels and other businesses.
"The Israelis have one police department for the entire country, making information sharing much easier," Smith said.
What most impressed Smith about Israeli police was their observation skills. She said they are specially trained to watch for specific body language and certain verbal responses.
"At the airport they get real close to you, look you in the eye and ask unnerving questions," she said. "They have developed a very good psychological profile of a suicide bomber's behavior."
She said she'd like her deputies to be trained to use the profile, which includes an individual with low self-esteem, low aggression levels, submissive and dependent behavior, and fear of standing out.
The Israeli government spends a lot of resources on intelligence gathering so it can disrupt terrorists before they attack, Smith said. In the United States, she said, sheriff's and police departments don't have the budgets to investigate the machinations of terrorist cells. She said they are funded to deal with terrorism only after it happens.
"Last year Santa Clara County got $15 million in homeland security money, " Smith said. "But we're not allowed to use any of it for investigative work. It's all to be used in the event of a terrorist attack."

Is your Tinder profile cock-blocking you?
By GQ Staff 3 August 2015
Comedian Aziz Ansari gets surprisingly serious about relationships in the Digital Age in his book Modern Romance
Aziz Ansari, who is among the most popular stand-up comedians in the US, met me for lunch at Cherche Midi, on the Bowery, New York, looking like a hip, surprised sprite. Mr Ansari famously went from playing a delusional Lothario on Parks And Recreation to having 5.6 million Twitter followers and selling out Madison Square Garden twice with his one-man show. "Are you into splitsies?" he asked me.
It was a firstie. We had a hamachi crudo, followed by his choice of pan-seared salmon and steak frites to share. "Absolutely!" said the waiter. "Thank you, sir," said Aziz.
We were meeting to discuss his first book, Modern Romance (for which he received a reported $3.5 million advance), written with the sociologist Eric Klinenberg and published last month by Penguin Press. It's an unexpectedly serious work about the challenges and pitfalls of looking for love in the Digital Age via Match.com, OkCupid, Tinder, Twitter, Facebook -- the whole techno shebang.
Aziz Ansari is now 32. He isn't, then, a bewildered fogey when it comes to understanding our hyper-connected times. But he's old enough, he told me, to still speak to someone on the phone. Texting is less anxiety ridden. ("Hey, w'sup!") And it makes it easier to cheat, break up and snoop. He mentioned the erotic thriller Unfaithful, from 2002, in which poor old Richard Gere hires a private detective to snoop on his beautiful wife, Diane Lane, who's having a wild affair with a French dude. "If they made Unfaithful now," Aziz explained amusingly, "he'd just look at her smartphone and be like, 'Who's this guy you're texting who's saying, "Let's go fuck in the stairwell again!"?' The movie would be, like, 20 minutes!"
He believes that the most intimate relationship we have is with our cell phones. According to his research, Ok Cupid creates some 40,000 dates every day, while two billion swipes on Tinder generate 12 million matches a day. "It's a stunning number, and I think it's beautiful that all these tools are able to help people find love and happiness. I mean, sometimes it doesn't go well. But there are so many people it's helped. If you look at it one way, it's creating all this love in the world that wouldn't be created otherwise."
There was a time when we were buying personal ads in these things called newspapers. ("Attractive mid-30s male interested in travel, Chopin and mountaineering would like to meet blonde 20-year-old.") In contrast, Aziz quoted an insecure young man he interviewed complaining he had only 70 matches on Tinder, whereas an attractive female friend of his had hundreds. "Seventy women? That's insane!"
"I used to know about four women," I said.
"Yeah, me too! But now you get into this whole paradox of choice. What's weird is that all the norms are changing so fast. Is there too much choice? Just because you have 70 matches -- don't try to hang out with all 70. You can hang out with a few and see if there's a connection."
EM Forster's fabled 1910 epigraph, "Only connect", has been transformed into a frantic Web search not only for relationships or marriage (or sex) but also for perfect love. Aziz, a romantic realist, sees the downside. He writes in Modern Romance that technology has turned his generation into "the rudest, flakiest people ever."
"I think our cell phones have given us the tools to be rude," he explained (though he remains characteristically polite). "It's easier to send a text to split up with someone than to have a conversation and, you know, deal with the ramifications. It's easier because you're not going to hear the disappointment in their voice."
We've become souls divided, he maintains, between the real self and the cell phone self. And we get ourselves wrong! When Aziz was writing stand-up about online dating, he experimented with filling out the forms of dummy accounts on several dating sites. The person he truthfully described he wanted to find "was a little younger than me, small, with dark hair". But the woman he's been dating for the past two years and is now happily living with in Los Angeles is a little older, taller and blonde. Match.com's own research algorithm confirms the surprising discovery that the partner people say they want online often doesn't match up to the one they're actually interested in. "Who knows who you're eliminating?" said Aziz. His current love wouldn't have made it through the filters he placed on his own online dating profile. "This is the thing," he said. "If we could have just one checkbox, it would say, 'I want someone I have a very deep connection with and I can sit around having the most fun with -- ever!'" In the end, every dating tool is a means to a traditional outcome -- a real, live, risky meeting! In fact, Aziz first met his steady girl, a pastry chef, through mutual friends before they began the texting dance between them (which he publishes in Modern Romance). And, as a bonus, his parents, immigrants to the US from Tamil Nadu, are the successful outcome of an arranged marriage. They were married a week after they met, some 35 years ago.
Falling in love is the eternal mystery, Aziz Ansari agrees, and, for good and bad, till death do us part, the Digital Age is here to help.

Where are the best cities to invest in real estate in 2018?
It's the big question everyone wants to know. Where are the best cities in America to invest in real estate for 2018? The answer may differ slightly on your personal goals, scenario, and the strategies you are using. There are also a variety of metrics to measure this by. Some look and rank cities by past performance, the returns others have achieved over the previous few years, or price growth. Another option is to look at where the growth is going.
Inc's Entrepreneurial Opportunity Index measures US cities based on a combination of where housing prices are still the most affordable, and there is the best job growth. These are places where business is strong, and people are probably moving, but which still offer a lot of value for real estate investors, who may be looking for opportunities to flip, lease, and wholesale.
Here is the top 20 to watch if you think these metrics are important, or just want to find somewhere to work and live, and get a lot more property for your money.
Some may be surprised to see San Francisco, California on this list. While it may not be cheap by most standards, locals typically have more buying power, and it boasts the second highest rate of advanced jobs growth, only just behind Nashville.
Seattle comes in very low on the list due to slow job growth. Housing costs are also very high there due to Amazon's tremendous buying and building spree. The new hunt for an Amazon HQ2 could be partially due to this factor.
Of course, jobs and affordability of housing are just two factors. They are very important ones, but investors may want to consider these as well.
While real estate investing is about the numbers, and Warren Buffett says is best when most businesslike, investors don't have to completely throw out their own preferences either. If you really love a certain area, and its lifestyle, you are going to love talking about it and selling it. You'll stay interested and engaged longer, and people will see you are being authentic, and feel your passion.
So, maybe even in tandem with the above lists, consider what niches you may want to specialize in and own.
Where you choose to invest may vary on your timeline and strategy too.
Wholesaling for quick immediate paydays?
Looking to flex your inner designer with beautiful rehabs?
Flipping with a 3-6 month turn around time?
Building a long term rental portfolio and empire?
Does your strategy rely on being able to exit quickly, within the next 1-12 months, do you need a market that will be good for resale in 5-10 years from now, or are you happy holding onto it forever?
The best places to invest in real estate in 2018 may be a little different to last year, depending on your individual game plan. Check your facts, fundamentals, and the outlook for where you are investing. Pick the places best for you.

Q: Rails 3.1 helper-method to check values of current_user I've build my own basic blog-tool with Rails 3.1 based upon http://ruby.railstutorial.org/ruby-on-rails-tutorial-book and with the authorization presented in RailsCast 274 ( http://railscasts.com/episodes/274-remember-me-reset-password ). So I have a current_user for my session-management in my Rails-app that looks like this:
def current_user
  @current_user ||= User.find_by_auth_token!(cookies[:auth_token]) if cookies[:auth_token]
end

Now I've got the problem, that I would like to check two values of this user.
My user-model looks like this:
# == Schema Information
#
# Table name: users
#
#  id              :integer         not null, primary key
#  name            :string(255)
#  email           :string(255)
#  password_digest :string(255)
#  admin           :boolean         default(FALSE)
#  created_at      :datetime
#  updated_at      :datetime
#  auth_token      :string(255)
#  writer          :boolean         default(FALSE)
#  website         :string(255)
#

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_accessible :name, :email, :website, :password, :password_confirmation
  has_secure_password

  has_many :articles, :dependent => :destroy

  email_regex = /\A[\w+\-.]+@[a-z\d\-.]+\.[a-z]+\z/i
  website_regex = /(^$)|(^(http|https):\/\/[a-z0-9]+([\-\.]{1}[a-z0-9]+)*\.[a-z]{2,5}(([0-9]{1,5})?\/.*)?$)/ix

  validates :name, :presence => true,
                   :length   => { :maximum => 50 }
  validates :email, :presence => true,
                    :format   => { :with => email_regex },
                    :uniqueness => { :case_sensitive => false }
  # Automatically create the virtual attribute 'password_confirmation'.
  validates :password, :presence     => true,
                       :confirmation => true,
                       :length       => { :within => 6..40 }
  validates :website, :format => { :with => website_regex }

  before_create { generate_token(:auth_token) }

  private
    def generate_token(column)
      begin
        self[column] = SecureRandom.urlsafe_base64
      end while User.exists?(column => self[column])
    end
end

The values I want to check are :admin and :writer, if they are true or not. As you can see, they are not marked as accessible because I want that only administrators can edit these values. I solve this like in RailsCast 237 (I would like to insert the link, but I'm not allowed as a new user to post more than two links) shown. Checking these parameters in controllers with current_user.admin? or current_user.writer? seems to be no problem. But if try this in a view I get the following error-message:
ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method `writer' for nil:NilClass):
    15:
<%= link_to "Log in", signin_path %>

    16:       <% end %>
    17:

    18:     <% if current_user.writer == true %>
    19:

    20:
<%= link_to "new article", newarticle_path %>

    21:

  app/views/layouts/_header.html.erb:18:in `_app_views_layouts__header_html_erb___3376819447841576130_36475600'
  app/views/layouts/application.html.erb:12:in `_app_views_layouts_application_html_erb__676755681270806253_35068900'

Could please someone tell me if this problem is solvable and how? I would appreciate that very much!
Update 1: I figured out, that current_user.admin? or current_user.writer? don't work in controllers either. So it seems I need a general helper-method for that.

A: this error means that you are not logged in. There is noting in 'current_user' variable.
you need to add another check whether the user logged-in or not.
so try this.
<% if current_user %>
  <% if current_user.writer %>
  <% end %>
  #this will return true no need for doing current_user.writer == true
<% end %>

hope this will help

Gaining perspective on appreciating myself, and giving myself some credit. Something I've always had trouble with. I'm not the greatest with compliments. But ya know... I'm proud of myself, and I've been blessed with the opportunity to be in people's lives, which is not something everyone can say, especially world wide. I have no ego, I just beat myself up all the time, often feeling like a failure. Full of self consciousness. Except really, I've accomplished more then most people, with less, and with a big smile on my face. Receiving love, help, compliments, donations, people tell me their life is changed.... Because of something I did without thought. So beautiful....What an honor.
I'm more successful then I've even given myself credit for. If I can make an impact on ONE life, that's an honor beyond honors. It's thankfully been more, and it's come back in such a beautiful way, all the amazing things I've done and people I've met!
I'm here to accomplish many goals, and I'm no longer going to get in my own way. I'm going to start appreciating myself. Starting now :D thank you Jenna Xoxo much much love!

The recent events in Paris have challenged our sense of safety. They come at a time when the European Union is in the course of discussing its priorities in the area of internal security for the next five years. This paper examines the ways in which a fundamental rights perspective can benefit the current debate, so that a fundamental rights-anchored approach can support the creation of legitimate, effective and sustainable law enforcement and counter-radicalisation measures.

After the adoption of the Council conclusions on the development of a renewed EU Internal Security Strategy in December 2014, the European Commission is now preparing the European Agenda for Security to deal with the security threats that Europe is facing, from the threat of terrorism – increased by the proximity of conflict-ridden regions in the Middle East and elsewhere – to organised crime or cybercrime in its numerous manifestations. The trans-national nature of the current security concerns, particularly in an area defined by freedom of movement, contributes to a renewed sense of urgency for a joint response at EU level.

Blue Jays broadcaster Jerry Howarth gave us a lifetime of baseball memories
By Edward KeenanStar Columnist
Thu., Feb. 15, 2018timer4 min. read
"He speaks in your voice, American, and there's a shine in his eye that's halfway hopeful."
It's the first line of Don Dellilo's Underworld — kicking off a novella-length prologue that in itself must be one of the best baseball stories ever written. But it comes to mind sometimes when I think of the Toronto Blue Jays broadcaster Jerry Howarth, who announced this week he was retiring after 36 years of calling the team's games on radio.
He was American, from Pennsylvania by way of California, Washington and Utah, but once he got to Toronto, he seemed to speak in our voice — and managed to shine something halfway hopeful into us.
Howarth has always had that reedy, nasal voice that for generations defined Canadian sports announcers: Foster Hewitt, Dick Irvin, Howie Meeker and Bob Cole on Hockey Night in Canada; Paul Morris on the Maple Leaf Gardens PA system; Joe Bowen on Leafs radio; Dave van Horne of Montreal Expos broadcasts.
You can hear some of the same quality in the calls of legendary Dodgers sportscaster Vin Scully, though in my lifetime American sports generally always seems to be narrated in thunderous baritones and southern drawls — the movie voiceover sound of masculine authority. In Canada, until recently we seemed to hear our narratives from the voice of the guy on the next barstool at the legion hall — pitchy, excitable, human voices. He speaks in your voice.
It's the voice of childhood nights in my grandmother's living room, where a family friend we knew as "Aunt" Peg sat chewing on fat cigars and listening to games on a portable transistor radio through an earpiece — one she would turn towards me as we crowded together on the couch, cheeks pressed side by side, so we could listen to the full-count call while she blew smoke rings and the picture of a game hovered amid them in my imagination.
It's the voice you would hear when you put the game on the tube and then muted the TV volume so you could crank up the radio to tell you what you were seeing. The voice in the car giving you something to focus on during a long highway drive.
It's the voice that comes from Exhibition Stadium, or SkyDome, or Rogers Centre, from New York or Anaheim or Arlington or Atlanta, live to your ears, bringing you there to see and feel and live the games.
It's the voice of lazy summer afternoons near the lake on the deck of my grandfather's trailer, frogs hopping by, through the reeds, and some boat motor roaring off in the distance. "Yessir, it's time for Blue Jays baseball here," Howarth would say as someone cracked open a beer and you swatted away mosquitoes. And then Tom Cheek and Jerry would take you away and bring you the exploits of George Bell, Dave Steib, Tom Henke, Roberto Alomar, Devon White and Kelly Gruber.
And Joe Carter. Of course.
"Touch 'em all Joe. You'll never hit a bigger home run in your life," — that was Tom's voice, not Jerry's, that made that most famous Blue Jays call of all in 1993. But Howarth called Dave Winfield's eleventh-inning double that put the Blue Jays ahead for good in their first World Series-winning game a year earlier. Tom and Jerry were there together. Sometimes it seemed they'd been there together forever.
It wasn't forever — it wasn't even since the beginning of the Blue Jays, really. Cheek had been there with Early Wynn for the first four seasons, until Howarth joined him in 1981. And Howarth carried on without him after Cheek died in 2005. Still, close enough to forever for many fans' purposes.
Those voices, our voices in the summer, they were the voices of every Blue Jays moment you might wish to recall.
"Shot to right-centre, hit deep. Long run for Bush, back he goes, he looks at the wall — YES SIR! There she goes! A two-run homerun for George Bell!"
"Swing and a miss, he StruckHimOut. Great job by Stieb, that's four strikeouts."
"That's heading for Windows restaurant, and — yes sir! Let's admire that one! Four home runs for Carlos Delgado!"
Through good teams and bad teams, Howarth has been there telling us what to admire, describing the precise placement of balls that hit batters, narrating the details of convoluted running plays and passed balls and bizarre umpire calls.
And in what may be the second most famous moment in Blue Jays history — certainly the proudest recent one — he was there, too: "They're on their feet here, nearly 50,000 strong. One-and-one to Jose, all eyes on the mound and the bearded Sam Dyson. Now he comes set. Kicks. The one-one pitch, fly ball deep left field — YES! SIR! There! She! Goes! Blue Jays six, Rangers three." A bat was flipped. The roar of those 50,000 fans took over. Local sports legend was written. The first draft was a story Jerry Howarth told us as it happened.
After 36 years in the booth, thousands and thousands of games, more than a decade after losing Cheek, Howarth is forced to retire due to "health and stamina and continuing voice issues." A sad day, not least for those of us whose "voice issue" now is that, when it comes to baseball, we seem to have lost ours. Someone will follow Howarth in the booth, of course. But they cannot replace him, of course.
Yes sir, there he goes. Thirty-six years in a career, a lifetime of baseball memories. Let's admire that one.

Cascais () è un comune portoghese situato nel distretto di Lisbona.

Normalmente ed erroneamente conosciuto come parte di Estoril, data la quantità di turisti, in realtà è Estoril che appartiene al comune di Cascais. Da Lisbona è semplice arrivare alla stazione di Cascais attraverso la linea ferroviaria costiera, una delle prime linee elettriche europee.

Negli anni l'attività turistica ha rimpiazzato l'industria peschiera. Esiste tuttavia ancora una piccola flotta di pescherecci e un ricco mercato del pesce, noto come la Lota de Cascais.
Si distingue per esser oggi meta di un turismo d'élite.

Geografia fisica

Situato sulla costa atlantica, Cascais ha un clima gradevole. Le temperature, che difficilmente superano i 30 gradi d'estate, rimangono miti durante l'inverno.

Storia

Nota come la destinazione preferita di alcuni monarchi tra cui quelli di Casa Savoia. Dall'anno 1946, dopo la proclamazione della Repubblica italiana, qui si trasferì a vivere l'ultimo Re d'Italia Umberto II.

Monumenti e luoghi d'interesse

Tra le mete turistiche più importanti ci sono una fortezza che ancora oggi è la base dell'Esercito e il Museu Condes de Castro Guimarães, situato in quella che fu la residenza privata di un magnate di origine irlandese, Jorge Torlades O'Neill II, costruita tra il 1897 ed i 1900 in stile Folly - vale a dire comprendente vari stili di costruzione - con un occhio all'architettura araba. Qui è conservato il testo originale della Crónica de D. Afonso Henriques, redatta da Duarte Galvão.

Il Museu do Mar Rei D. Carlos, situato nelle strutture dell'antico Sporting Club de Cascais (fondato nel 1879, chiuso nel 1974), contiene reperti interessanti di archeologia locale, specialmente marittima.
Un nuovo porto da diporto, la Marina de Cascais, è stato costruito di recente in quello che i pescatori locali considerano il posto meno adatto, dove le onde atlantiche colpiscono la costa con grande violenza, tanto che il muro in cemento armato a distanza di 5 anni ha già mostrato segni di rottura.

Continuando sulla strada costiera, ci sono tre fari, Santa Marta, Guia e Cabo Raso: quest'ultimo si trova dove un mare calmo diventa per uno spazio di 200 metri una tempesta locale, dove le onde sono altissime, tra una costa alta e rocciosa.
Lo sport del surf viene praticato alcuni chilometri più a nord, nella spiaggia conosciuta come Praia do Guincho, che fa parte di un parco nazionale di non grandi dimensioni, ma che sembra un pezzo di deserto africano trapiantato in Europa.

Conosciuto come il punto più a ovest dell'Europa Continentale, il Cabo da Roca è anche riconosciuto come il punto più occidentale del continente europeo. Situato a circa 100 metri di altezza, all'orlo di un vertiginoso precipizio, guarda verso l'Atlantico. Procedendo verso ovest, la terra emersa più vicina è l'isola di São Miguel a circa 3.000 chilometri di distanza, circa a metà strada tra l'Europa ed il Nord America.

Alle spalle del faro, c'è la Serra de Sintra, una catena montuosa di circa 20 chilometri di lunghezza per un'altezza massima di circa 800 metri s.l.m.; benché fuori dal comune di Cascais, vale la pena considerare anche questa zona, molto bella e con piccoli villaggi (Areia, Malveira da Serra) e cittadine abbastanza grandi (Sintra), nascoste nei posti più disparati e con parecchie attrazioni turistiche del genere storico/culinario.

Notevole è il Palacio da Peninha, immediatamente alle spalle del faro.

Tornando verso Cascais, si passa dall'Autódromo do Estoril, un circuito, sede in passato del Gran Premio del Portogallo di Formula 1 e del Gran Premio motociclistico del Portogallo.

Notevole anche il Palazzo del Duca di Palmela, storica residenza estiva in stile neogotico realizzata alla fine dell'Ottocento.

Stockbroker Turned Hells Angel Extradited to Arizona 17 Years After Woman Murdered
Kelsie Blazier

Kelsie Blazier | July 18, 2018 | 11:45am
A Hells Angel wanted for the 2001 murder of Cynthia Garcia was extradited to Arizona from Argentina, and arrested at Sky Harbor International Airport on July 17.
Paul Merle Eischeid, now 46, was arrested in 2003 in the gruesome murder of Garcia outside a Hells Angel hangout in Mesa. Court records allege that Eischeid and a fellow Hells Angel – Kevin Augustiniak – became involved in an argument with Garcia after she criticized the criminal activities at one of their clubhouses.
Eischeid and Augustiniak punched Garcia in the face, and when she fell to the ground, stomped on her head until she lost consciousness, according to reports. They then dragged her – limp, but still alive – to a car and threw her into the trunk. The men drove to a remote part of the Mesa desert, court documents state, and stabbed Garcia in the neck, torso, and head until she died.
Paul Merle Eischeid, 46.
MCSO.org
Garcia's body was found several days later with more than 30 stab wounds, and marks on her spinal cord indicating the bikers also tried to cut off her head.
Eischeid, a former Charles Schwab stockbroker, was arrested two years later after he was indicted for drug trafficking and RICO violations, including counts in connection with the murder, but was released on bond and given an ankle bracelet because of his "minimal criminal history." Though he did not appear to be a flight risk, Eischeid cut off his ankle monitor and fled to Argentina with a fake passport provided by Robert Eugene Tutokey.
In his application for a passport, Tutokey claimed his eyes were blue – Eischeid's eye color – rather than hazel, the color of his own eyes. A judge sentenced Tutokey nine months in the Federal Bureau of Prisons after he pled guilty to one count of providing false statements in an application for a U.S. passport. It is unclear if Tutokey was also a member of Hells Angels.
Eisheid evaded capture for several years due to his ability to alter his appearance with longer hair, a beard, or glasses.
Phoenix New Times
In 2007, three years after fleeing Arizona with the forged passport, Eischeid was placed on the U.S. Marshals' 15 Most Wanted list for allegedly committing "one of the most grisly crimes in recent American criminal history." But the stockbroker turned gangbanger was not apprehended until 2011 when Argentinean authorities captured him in Buenos Aires.
According to a 2011 Phoenix New Times report, Argentinean officials found a photocopy of the first page of Tutokey's passport booklet, an Arizona driver's license, and a Social Security number all belonging to Tutokey in Eischeid's possession.
Argentinean journalist Federico Fahsbender reported that a Change.org petition was created, asking for Eischeid to remain in Argentina rather than being extradited to the U.S. According to the petition, Eischeid has a wife and son in the country. Free Paul Eischeid, the entity that filed the petition, wrote: "If he is extradited, he will be tried for crimes he has not committed, but he could receive the irreversible sentence of the death penalty as a result."
The petition received more than 4,000 signatures.
Eischeid's counterpart in Garcia's murder, Augustiniak, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in 2011 and is currently serving 22 to 25 years in prison.
Authorities would like to charge Eischeid with kidnapping, participation in a gang, and two counts of first-degree murder. Eischeid is being held without bond because he is a "danger to other persons or the community," but court records say nothing about him being a potential flight risk.

A few years ago we worked with four members of a family who wanted to collaborate on a family history book. The problem was that they all lived in different states. Trying to manage their contributions and revisions of the manuscript was not always easy for anyone involved. So, I was excited when I saw a recent Wired article that described, GitHub, a new tool for online collaboration and version control.
Examining the experience Wired describes, GitHub would work perfectly for authors collaborating on a book project. It would be particularly valuable for people working on family history book manuscripts because it would allow introduction of new research and revision in a way that allows all of the parties involved to literally be on the same page.
If you are working on a collaborative project or think you might be, check out GitHub. Let us know what you think!

Jesus Torres, 43, was arrested Wednesday in Flagler after authorities began looking for him Sunday following a fight outside of Dixie's Gentlemen's Club on U.S. 17, north of DeLand. Torres reportedly got in an altercation inside the club that spilled outside. Surveillance video shows Torres knocking one man to the ground and punching him several times followed by him getting in an exchange of words with the man's friend, Vicente Alejo Verdel, 44. Torres reportedly punched Verdel several times and after he fell to the ground motionless punched him several more times. Preliminary autopsy results indicated Verdel's death was the result of blunt force trauma and was ruled a homicide. Torres remains in Flagler County jail without bond.

He appeared remorseful and apologetic, said officials. He was taken into custody and charged with False Report Concerning the Use of Firearms in a Violent Manner. He was booked into the jail and Department of Juvenile Justice contacted. He was released back into the custody of his parents, pending a future court date by order of Juvenile Justice.

Q: Is there any way to provide global classes to material-ui component in ReactJs? I have some global classes for fonts and colors, but cannot use these classes in material-ui Typography. used library for material ui : https://material-ui.com/
in below code:
<Typography className={'font14 contrastText'} color="primary" gutterBottom>
    Sell your old {newLine} device
</Typography>

property of classes font14 and contrastText is not applying on p tag which is generated by Typography tag.

A: You have to use the createMuiTheme function to override the default theme.
By providing a custom theme, you can change anything globaly:
const theme = createMuiTheme({
  palette: {
      primary: purple,
      secondary: green,
  },
});

Pass that into your provider:
<ThemeProvider theme={theme}>

This will let you use the colors like you do it above:
<Typography color="primary" gutterBottom>
       Sell your old {newLine} device
</Typography>

The color will now be purple for the text.
You can use the same for fonts for example.
If you just want to override one local propriety, you have to pass the className with the classes prop:
<Typography classes={{root: 'font14 contrastText'}} color="primary" gutterBottom>
       Sell your old {newLine} device
</Typography>

This will apply the classNames to your root component and will work as desired as well.
To override it localy, you have to increase the specificity. Use an id for example to override the material-ui classes.
Hope this helps. Happy coding.

"Rose de Shiraz" is an album about love, dreams, hay fever, street-markets, shopping, cooking and eating... Vienna based Ulrich Troyer (aka Uli Troyer, previously released on Mego) and friends create experimental electronic pop with soul and humor. Cut-up samples of various sounds and vocals (of persian, turkish, german, italian, french and kurdish friends dropping by), along with guest musicians playing guitars, bass, clarinet, and saxophone, are rearranged to make something completely new, with a big love to small details. The album begins its journey through street markets in Mexico, over to Paris and Vienna, and ending in the middle of a bazar in Cairo. With scenic, romantic melodies and warm tones, the album gradually takes the listener into deeper territory, contrasting delicate, melodic shapes with weird cut-up sounds and distorted funk rhythms. Mixing live instruments, vocal samples, field recordings and beats cut with a cool precision, the album reminds us at times of the electro-acoustic cut-ups of Matmos (a la "The West"), the funky bounce of Mouse On Mars, and the organic instrumentations of Mice Parade or Tortoise, but fusing modern "electronic" music and acoustic music with his own unique blend of latin, bossa nova, european and middle eastern flavors, and intimate baroque figures.
