Hi, I have created account on your website, but every time I click on the video, it kicks me back to sign in page.
Did you try the getting started section?
any new video tutorials? these tutorials are from way back 6 months ago? when will you add new ones?
@stephenperry18 Check his website, he just added a few more new tutorials. He seems to be working on free/paid courses on his website, at this moment the premium is invite only (haven't got it myself, so no idea if it has more courses than free ones at this moment).
The more tutorials the better, since the documentation at this moment (English or Russian) is very lacking compared to other tools so it's a lot of trial and error. Hopefully more people decide to contribute with text or video based tutorials, I'll be for sure once I learn more about this tool.
Thank you @hermeslabs for the effort, your HF post made me find this tool and spark an interest towards automations, grabbed premium after watching your free tutorials!
no those tutorials are re-uploaded, they were created 6 months ago.

U B U N T U + PSYCHOLOGY

(Another view of
UBUNTU PSYCHOLOGY)
"Researchers Define Who We Are When We Work Together
and Evolutionary Origins of the "Wait and See" Approach
21 Jan 2005"
"Whether it is barn-raising or crafting a business plan, humans are among the few creatures that are able to work well cooperatively. According to an evolutionary psychologist at the University of Pennsylvania, our success at cooperation results from three distinct personality types.
"In any given group of people, you'll find three kinds of people:
Cooperators, Free Riders, and what we call Reciprocators.
Cooperators do the most work
and Free Riders do as little as possible,
but most of us are Reciprocators:
We hold back a bit to determine the chances of success before devoting our full energy to a project," said Robert Kurzban, an assistant professor in Penn's Department of Psychology.
"We found that these traits remained fairly stable among people, and you could reliably predict how a group might perform if you know the percentage of each type of person in that group."
Kurzban and Daniel Houser of George Mason University
present their findings this week in the Online Early Edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The researchers used a computer-based experiment to assess the range of cooperative behaviors among people. While they cannot offer a complete explanation of how these traits might have evolved, they point to reciprocity as an important motive in human societal behavior. According to Kurzban, it could also provide a simple lesson on the power of internal communications to managers and group leaders.
"Our findings show that the vast majority of people, about 63 percent, are Reciprocators, and in any group you are likely to have a substantial number of Reciprocators," Kurzban said. "The simplest way to make use of a Reciprocator potential is to keep everyone apprised with information about the successful contributions of others within the group. This way you show them that there is something to gain from their efforts."
More than 80 subjects participated in the experiment in which they were given 50 tokens that they could choose to keep or place in a group pool. Tokens placed in the group pool doubled in value and, at the end of the time period, were distributed equally among members. About 17 percent of the participants could be classified as Cooperators, taking the most risk almost immediately. Free Riders, who prefer not to cooperate, made up 20 percent.
"Overall, these personality traits remained strong through different games no matter which combinations of people were used.
Granted, if people are stuck working with a bunch of Free Riders, even the most highly cooperative among them will tend to take the 'wait-and-see' approach," Kurzban said.
Kurzban and Houser are now replicating their experiments to determine if distributions of cooperative types are similar across cultures. If those similarities are found, it might help clarify the origins of these distinct personality types.
The Russell Sage Foundation and the International Foundation for Research in Experimental Economics provided support for this research."

Subbuteo 2022 Liverpool Edition
Subbuteo is a classic finger-flicking football-simulation action game. It is played on a large cloth playing field called a "pitch", with teams of miniature football players mounted on smooth round bases. The football players are made to kick the ball by flicking their bases, which causes them to slide around on the pitch, hitting the ball. The rules simulate nearly all details of a soccer game including ball possession and passing, throw-ins, goal kicks and corner kicks. There is even a large section in the rules devoted to fouling.
Far more popular in European countries than in the United States, this game allows collectors to buy teams of football players representing dozens of teams and countries from around the world, along with soccer stadium enhancements such as stands filled with cheering fans, referees that stand on the sidelines, even stadium lights.

Celebrity hacker pleads guilty to Scarlett Johansson e-mail hack
"Operation Hackerazzi" comes to a close as the hacker most known for sending private nude photos of Scarlett Johansson to gossip Web sites pleads guilty.
Dara Kerr
March 26, 2012 8:01 p.m. PT
Christopher Chaney entered guilty pleas to nine felony counts in federal court today, admitting that he hacked into dozens of celebrities' e-mail accounts, including those of Mila Kunis and Scarlett Johansson, according to the Los Angeles Times.
"Today's guilty pleas shine a bright light on the dark underworld of computer hacking," said U.S. Attorney Andre Birotte Jr., whose office prosecuted the case, according to the Los Angeles Times. "This case demonstrates that everyone, even public figures, should take precautions to shield their personal information from the hackers that inhabit that dark underworld."
Chaney, 35 of Jacksonville, Fla., faces a maximum of 60 years in federal prison when his sentence is announced in July. He was nabbed last October following an 11-month investigation that federal officials named "Operation Hackerazzi."
Originally he was charged with a 26-count indictment that accused Chaney of unauthorized access of protected computers, wiretapping, identity theft, and damaging computers. While more than 50 victims from the entertainment industry were connected with the case, only five people were identified by name: Johansson, Kunis, Christina Aguilera, Simone Harouche, and Renee Olstead.
After the bust Chaney initially pled not guilty, but, according to TMZ, he struck a plea deal with the prosecutors and ended up agreeing to nine counts, including identity theft, wiretapping, and unauthorized access of protected computers. He also agreed to surrender his computers, external drives, and cell phone.
Over the course of the federal hearing, Chaney admitted to hacking into celebrity accounts, obtaining private e-mails and confidential documents, publicizing their personal information, and sending photos to two celebrity Web sites. Some of the photos of Johansson were nude photos she took privately to send to her then-husband Ryan Reynolds, according to The Guardian.
Chaney gained access to the accounts by using the "Forgot your password?" feature in their e-mail addresses, according to the Los Angeles Times. He then would reset the passwords by answering security questions from public information he found by searching the Web. According to the plea agreement, Chaney received thousands of e-mails from the victims' accounts.

Famed as 'the land of the dawn-lit mountains', Arunachal Pradesh is the last frontier of India, as well as the largest of the Seven Sisters states. It also goes by the name of the "Orchid State" as it is home to about 50 percent of the orchid species found in India.
Arunachal Pradesh is rich in flora, fauna, as well as culture and heritage. It comprises a unique blend of tribes and sub-tribes, which bring their own legacy in terms of language, customs, festivals, cuisines and art forms. Buddhism and the animist traditions of Donyi Polo, worship of the Sun and Moon, have a strong influence on the local cultures and traditions.
The land is mostly mountainous with the Himalayan ranges running through most of the state. The state is divided into five river valleys – the Kameng, the Subansiri, the Siang, the Lohit and the Tirap. The temperate climate engendering lush forest cover, along with the sprawling ranges of the eastern Himalayas, are a paradise for nature lovers. The state is home to countless species of rare vegetation, as well as animals and birds.
Arunachal Pradesh has a number of unforgettable offbeat destinations to choose from. Travellers interested in learning about Mahayana Buddhism could travel to Tawang, which has the second largest monastery in the world after the Potola Palace of Lhasa, or those interested learning about tribal culture could visit Ziro valley, where they can interact with the local Apatanis who are famed for their pagan culture, nose stubs and facial tattoos. Wildlife enthusiast can venture into the jungles of Namdapha National Park in search of the elusive Red Panda and the Snow Leopard. There is a lot more on offer, you only have to take your pick.

Neighborhood bistros, lively brasseries, intimate cafés, Michelin-starred restaurants, bars and terraces; they're all included in this Restaurant In Paris guide to dining and drinking. Choosing where to eat — and making the best choices — can be a bit confusing. But it's a good kind of confusing, if you know what we mean.
But don't worry, here we're going to share our hard-earned experience (well…actually it was fun) and Insiders tips. Speaking of tips, here's another one. It's important to call the restaurant to confirm on the day of your reservation. (Or have your hotel concierge call for you). Many restaurants in Paris require this. If you don't confirm, you may lose your reservation. We've seen it happen!
We've eaten at a lot of great restaurants in Paris and we love to talk about our experiences.
Our Best of Paris Restaurants are the special ones that have created culinary memories that endure the test of time. We like to think of them as the places we'd go if we had one last meal on Earth, the restaurants we urge friends and family to go when they are in Paris.
The Michelin Red Guide to restaurants is the only guide book that matters to the top chefs of France. We know, we've asked them.
During our visits to Paris, and especially for our new book about one-star Michelin restaurants in France, we've eaten at a fair number of restaurants that have been awarded the highest accolades by Michelin. Among those, we have a few favorites. We'll share the secrets.
Wouldn't it be great to know how to find the best Paris restaurants that serve the classic French dishes and are filled with locals, not tourists? It turns out that the quest is easier than you might think. Start right here, with 10 tested insiders tips. We'll help you find restaurants that feel like you've discovered them.
There's no doubt about it, Paris is a food city. So it's always newsworthy when there are changes to the city's food scene — a new opening, a renovation of an historic restaurant, a change in chefs. From the Eiffel Tower to the Bourse de Commerce, here are the top restaurant stories in Paris this year.
Bistros, it can be said, are at the very heart of Parisian dining. Some are smaller, family-run affairs, with the menus still scrawled on chalkboards. Others are elegant, with white linens and servers clad in black and white. But what they all have in common is classic, hearty bistro fare. Like cassoulets, foie gras, herring with waxy yellow potatoes, boeuf bourguignon, and creme brûlée.
Eating at a great bistro is like a little vacation in itself, and creates memories that will stay with you. Here are six of the best memory makers.
These dining establishments of Paris define the culinary landscape of the city and are a historical link to the past. Restaurants, bistros, brasseries & cafés in Paris have been around for centuries, reaching back to 1686 when Procope served their first bowl of French onion soup. Today they remain the staple of French dining and are found in every quartier of the city. Read our guide to learn how to tell them apart, and to discover some of our favorites.
Brasseries in Paris are big, brightly lit, packed with Parisians, and serve meals all day long. The best ones have fascinating histories and still feature authentic period decoration. They're open all day long and — unlike Paris cafés and restaurants — you can order a meal at any time of day.
To experience Paris dining history, and to tuck in a hearty meal, check our reviews of the top six historic brassieres.
Some of our most memorable restaurant experiences in Paris have been in those places where the chef/owner is in the kitchen. In this guide to Paris bistros, we explore a few stellar chef-run restaurants in the City of Food, some of which opened over twenty-five years ago, changing the city's culinary scene forever. They still offer gourmet meals at affordable prices.
A leisurely long lunch or dinner in a top-rated Paris restaurant will give you a taste of the good life. There will be a bevy of servers, all silently tending to your every culinary need. The setting will be opulent yet calming and the food will be inspirational.
But, stuffy? Pas du tout. Not at all. We've always been struck by the care and attention the staff affords us and how everyone seems to be excited about serving such great food.
What with all the current talk about New Paris, trendy restaurants, and vegan menus, it's somehow comforting to know that there still are a solid core of old-fashioned restaurants in Paris, serving up traditional fare. Think juicy escargots, roast leg of lamb, foie gras, duck confit, and ripe cheeses. Here are our top 10 picks for old-style restaurants. When we're hankering for traditional Paris, this is where we go.
Paris is not just about restaurants and bistros. There's a lively bar scene as well and, over the past years, fun & funky cocktails have become a thing, with new cutting-edge bars serving them throughout the city. From the banks of the Seine to the top of the Marais, here are our picks of the best bars in Paris.
Named after a famous train of yesteryear that sped Parisians to the Cote d'Azur, restaurant Le Train Bleu is still found today at Gare de Lyon, and it's still just as magnificent as when it opened in 1901, following a recent multi-year renovation. You're going to be amazed at the restored gilding, carved mouldings, chandeliers, paintings, and ceiling frescoes.
Let's take a virtual tour of the hottest Paris restaurant terraces — at least according to the Paris newspaper, Le Figaro. We've pared down Le Figaro's selection to our ten top favorites, found everywhere from the Palais Royal in the 1st Arrondissement, to St-Germain on the Left Bank, to way out in Belleville in the 20th.
Summer dining in the city is best on these hot Paris terraces. Eat with the locals, outside where the sun is warm and the views are spectacular.
Paris has always had great bistros, but now it's official! The Mayor's Office and the City of Paris recently recognized 100 stellar bistros that exemplify "the spirit of Paris" and "represent the diversity and richness of Parisian cuisine." We'll take you on a virtual tour of a selection of our personal favorite bistros, and then point you to the complete list.
Shop, but don't drop. After trying on all those shoes at the Printemps department store it's time to take a break, refresh, and re-fuel at one of the cafes located inside the store. There's an outpost of Ladurée that may tempt you, or you may want to sit under Printemps famous Belle-Epoque dome at Brasserie Printemps. We take a look at seven dining options.
Waiters in restaurants in Paris do not fawn over their customers. Don't mistake this for poor service, it's just another fascinating cultural difference. Most restaurants in Paris are small, so if you need the server just catch her eye — never snap your fingers.
Space is tight in central Paris and you'll find that many restaurants use up every bit of their precious space. You may find yourself side-by-side with other diners. Enjoy yourself, but try not to poke them with your fork!


Tech. Sgt. Joshua Kidd will be buried in Virginia on Thursday.
Bossier and Caddo law enforcement agencies escorted the body of U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Joshua Lewis Kidd from Bossier City to Waskom, Texas, early Monday morning.
Kidd, who was assigned to Barksdale Air Force Base, was shot and killed last week in the Bossier City neighborhood of GreenAcres Place.
A funeral with full military honors for Kidd, 30, will be held on Thursday at Blue Ridge Memorial Gardens in Roanoke, Virginia.
Lt. Bill Davis, a spokesman for the Bossier Parish Sheriff's Office, said Bossier sheriff's deputies, along with representatives from the Bossier City Police Department and Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office, escorted Kidd's body from Boone Funeral Home in Bossier City to the Waskom overpass in Texas around 3 a.m. Monday.
The law officers then saluted the procession as it continued on with the Waskom Police Department and Harrison County Sheriff's Office, Davis said.
Kidd was found unresponsive with a gunshot wound to the upper body outside of a residence — just a few houses down from his own — shortly before 6 a.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 25. His death was the first homicide reported in Bossier City this year.
Kidd studied at Staunton River High School in Moneta, Virginia, and at Wyotech Institute before joining the United States Air Force in March of 2008. At Barksdale, Kidd was assigned to the 2nd Maintenance Group, serving as a loading standardization crew chief.
He is survived by numerous family members and loved ones, including his wife, Alyssa, and 2-year-old son, Beckham, his obituary states.
No suspects have been named in the shooting. Bossier City police asked residents of GreenAcres Place to review any video surveillance they might have and report any suspicious activity seen on film from the early morning hours of Sept. 25.
Bossier Crime Stoppers is offering a $2,000 cash reward to anyone with information that leads to the identification and arrest of the person or people responsible for Kidd's homicide.


FWIW, I've worked in the space industry since 1997, around the time our favorite Twitter-based science expert and fashion critic was in junior high. Most of that work has been on projects involving vehicles for carrying people. I don't recall a project or a period from then to now when we didn't normally refer to such vehicles as "crewed" – Crew Return Vehicle, Crewed Exploration Vehicle, Orion Crew Module, etc.

Hospital runs out of antibiotics
By Ilia L Likou, 17/03/2016
The National Health Services has swiftly moved to assuage fears about the shortage of antibiotic medications at the public pharmacies in Upolu and Savai'i.
Acting General Manager, Soi Ma'atasesa Samuelu-Matthes, assured that they have placed a new order and it should arrive by the end of next week.
"We are trying to get on top of the problem to ensure that the supply and medications are available for the people of Samoa as soon as possible," Soi said.
"Patients are the priority, and the N.H.S has taken steps to ensure that we are in the right position in supplying these for patients needs."
In shortage are Amoxicillin Suspension and Augmentin Suspension.
"These (antibiotics) are much needed for treatment of flu for the children, however we still have other antibiotics that would help in treating (flu) and are still available at our pharmacy," she said.
"We noticed the problem last week and then we acted right away."
Soi added that the shortage was due to the increasing number of patients, mainly children, diagnosed with the flu at the hospital.
"The N .H.S. is now looking at ways to solve the problem and we've already negotiated with private pharmacies in relation to the situation.
"These (antibiotics) are still available at those (pharmacies) except us."
Soi said the spike in the number of patients has not helped but it is something that they need to be constantly mindful of.
"It's something that we need to pay attention to … as we all know that the flu is very common and can lead to chest infections which can be serious.
"So at this stage, we're working to get the new order as soon as possible."
But their efforts are not good enough, according to patient, Lomia Tauifanua.
"This is not the first time that our people are facing this kind of problem, we're talking about life and death here," he said.
"What if our lives depended on these antibiotics? Do we have to wait until another month for another order?
"This is one of the most disgusting excuses I've heard – waiting until it all finishes and then they make a move."
Teleisia Tuala from Vaoala said this shouldn't be happening.
"I'm not sure why the government needs to have this multimillion hospital when they don't have simple medications like antibiotics?" she said.
An employee at Maria's Pharmacy yesterday told the Samoa Observer that they still have a sufficient supply for both antibiotics.
"We're selling the Amoxillian at 15sene (250mg) per pill and 50sene for Augmentin (500mg). We still have a sufficient supply for now."

Man arrested over Finsbury Park murder
by The Editor
in Britain
A 31-year-old man has been arrested in London over the murder of 22-year-old Iuliana Tudos in Finsbury Park, Scotland Yard said.
He was arrested at an address in Dalston, east London, at around 1.30pm on Monday and taken to a police station in southwest London, where he remains in custody.
Ms Tudos' body was found by a member of the public on 27 December in a disused building in Finsbury Park, near to her home.
She had been missing since Christmas Eve

A post-mortem examination took place at Haringey Mortuary and gave the cause of death as a stab wound to the abdomen and a head injury.
DCI Nicola Wall said: "We want to hear from anyone who saw, had contact with, or heard from Iuliana after this time.
Image:Ms Tudos had been missing since Christmas Eve when her body was found
"We'd also like to hear from anybody who saw anything suspicious within the park over the Christmas period."
Friends of Ms Tudos described her as "funny, honest, loving" and "definitely something special".
One of Iuliana's friends, Sonny Webb, told Sky News she was "like my little sister".
"She was a lovely person to be around," he added, "a caring person. She meant so much to me, and the world is not going to be the same without her."

Haringey Borough Commander Detective Chief Superintendent Des Fahy said that extra officers had been deployed to reassure the public.
He said: "We understand that the local community might have concerns, but I want to reassure people that incidents of this nature are incredibly rare.
"We have police out and about on patrol and local Neighbourhood Policing Teams have been out speaking to members of the community.
More from UK
"By all accounts, Iuliana was a bubbly lively girl enjoying a fun life in London when she was tragically taken from her loved ones. Our hearts go out to them."
:: Anyone with information should call the incident room on 0208 785 8244, or contact Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

Q: HIbernate Free Query I would like to query using hibernate given a particulay query string
I did it like this:
session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().openSession();
session.beginTransaction();
List<String> result = session.createQuery("Select item_value from cb_items").list();
session.getTransaction().commit();
session.clear();
return result;

Is this right? or do i have to substitute the column name with the fields in my pojo/bean and the table name with my pojo/bean name

A: You have to substitute the column name with the field name, and the table name with the Entity's class name, and follow a little different sytax.

A: I missed the mapping in my hibernate.cfg.xml

Title 16. Education
§ 16-6F-8
Alabama Code Title 16. Education § 16-6F-8
Search Code of Alabama
(a) Performance framework.
(1) The performance provisions within the charter contract shall be based on a performance framework that clearly sets forth the academic and operational performance indicators, measures, and metrics that will guide the authorizer's evaluations of each public charter school. The performance framework shall include indicators, measures, and metrics for, at a minimum:
a. Student academic proficiency, which includes, but is not limited to, performance on state standardized assessments.
b. Student academic growth, which includes, but is not limited to, performance on state standardized assessments.
c. Achievement gaps in both proficiency and growth between major student subgroups.
d. Attendance.
e. Recurrent enrollment from year to year.
f. Postsecondary readiness for high schools.
g. Financial performance and sustainability.
h. Board performance and stewardship, including compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and terms of the charter contract.
(2) Annual performance targets shall be set by each public charter school in conjunction with its authorizer, and shall be designed to help each school meet applicable federal, state, and authorizer expectations.
(3) The performance framework shall allow the inclusion of additional rigorous, valid, and reliable indicators proposed by a public charter school to augment external evaluations of its performance, provided that the authorizer approves the quality and rigor of such school-proposed indicators, and they are consistent with the purposes of this chapter.
(4) The performance framework shall require the disaggregation of all student performance data by major student subgroups (gender, race, poverty status, special education status, English learner status, and gifted status).
(5) For each public charter school it oversees, the authorizer shall be responsible for collecting, analyzing, and reporting all data from state assessments in accordance with the performance framework.
(6) Multiple schools overseen by a single governing board shall be required to report their performance as separate, individual schools, and each school shall be held independently accountable for its performance.
(b) Ongoing oversight and corrective action.
(1) An authorizer shall continually monitor the performance and legal compliance of the public charter schools it oversees, including collecting and analyzing data to support ongoing evaluation according to the charter contract. Every authorizer shall have the authority to conduct or require oversight activities that enable the authorizer to fulfill its responsibilities under this chapter, including conducting appropriate inquiries and investigations, so long as those activities are consistent with the intent of this chapter, adhere to the terms of the charter contract, and do not unduly prohibit the autonomy granted to public charter schools.
(2) Each authorizer shall annually publish and provide, as part of its annual report to the department and the Legislature, a performance report for each public charter school it oversees, in accordance with the performance framework set forth in the charter contract and Section 16-6F-6 . The authorizer may require each public charter school it oversees to submit an annual report to assist the authorizer in gathering complete information about each school, consistent with the performance framework.
(3) In the event that a public charter school's performance or legal compliance appears unsatisfactory, the authorizer shall promptly notify the public charter school of the perceived problem and provide reasonable opportunity for the school to remedy the problem, unless the problem warrants revocation, in which case the revocation timelines shall apply.
(4) Every authorizer shall have the authority to take appropriate corrective actions or exercise sanctions short of revocation in response to apparent deficiencies in public charter school performance or legal compliance. Such actions or sanctions may include, if warranted, requiring a school to develop and execute a corrective action plan within a specified time frame.
(c) Renewals, revocations, and nonrenewals.
(1) A charter may be renewed for successive five-year terms of duration, although the authorizer may vary the term based on the performance, demonstrated capacities, and particular circumstances of each public charter school. An authorizer may grant renewal with specific conditions for necessary improvement to a public charter school.
(2) No later than July 15, the authorizer shall issue a public charter school performance report and charter renewal application guidance to any public charter school whose charter is scheduled to expire the following year. The performance report shall summarize the public charter school's performance record to date, based on the data required by this chapter and the charter contract, and shall provide notice of any weaknesses or concerns perceived by the authorizer concerning the public charter school that may jeopardize its position in seeking renewal if not timely rectified. The public charter school shall have 15 calendar days to respond to the performance report and submit any corrections or clarifications for the report.
(3) The renewal application guidance, at a minimum, shall provide an opportunity for the public charter school to do all of the following:
a. Present additional evidence, beyond the data contained in the performance report, supporting its case for charter renewal.
b. Describe improvements undertaken or planned for the school.
c. Detail the school's plans for the next charter term.

b. Ensure that data used in making renewal decisions are available to the school and the public.
c. Provide a public report summarizing the evidence basis for each decision.
(7) A charter contract may be revoked at any time if the authorizer determines that the public charter school did any of the following or otherwise failed to comply with this chapter:
a. Commits a material and substantial violation of any of the terms, conditions, standards, or procedures required under this chapter or the charter contract.
b. Fails to meet or make sufficient progress toward the performance expectations set forth in the charter contract.
c. Fails to attain the minimum state proficiency standard for public charter schools in each year of their operation and over the charter term.
d. Fails to meet generally accepted standards of fiscal management.
e. Substantially violates any material provision of law from which the public charter school was not exempted.
(8) An authorizer may non-renew a public charter school if the authorizer determines that the public charter school did any of the following or otherwise failed to comply with this chapter:
b. Fails to meet the performance expectations set forth in the charter contract.
c. Fails to meet generally accepted standards of fiscal management.
d. Substantially violates any material provision of law from which the public charter school was not exempted.

At the time of renewal, any public charter school that has received a grade of F on the statewide accountability system for all public schools pursuant to Section 16-6C-2 , or a grade of D or F for the past three most recent years shall be considered to fall below the minimum state standard.
(10) An authorizer shall develop revocation and nonrenewal processes that do all of the following:
a. Provide the charter holders with a timely notification of the prospect of revocation or nonrenewal and of the reasons for such possible closures.
b. Allow the charter holders a reasonable amount of time in which to prepare a response.
c. Provide the charter holders with an opportunity to submit documents and give testimony challenging the rationale for closure and in support of the continuation of the school at an orderly proceeding held for that purpose.
d. Allow the charter holders access to representation by counsel, at the expense of the charter holder, and to call witnesses on their behalf.
e. Permit the recordings of such proceedings.
f. After a reasonable period for deliberation, require a final determination be made and conveyed in writing to the charter holders.
(11) If an authorizer revokes or does not renew a charter, the authorizer shall clearly state, in a resolution, the reasons for the revocation or nonrenewal.
(12) Within 15 days of taking action to renew, not renew, or revoke a charter, the authorizer shall report to the department the action taken, and shall provide a copy of the report to the public charter school at the same time that the report is submitted to the department.

(d) School closure and dissolution.
(1) Prior to any public charter school closure decision, an authorizer shall have developed a public charter school closure protocol to ensure timely notification to parents, orderly transition of students and student records to new schools, and proper disposition of school funds, property, and assets in accordance with the requirements of this chapter. The protocol shall specify tasks, timelines, and responsible parties, including delineating the respective duties of the school and the authorizer.
(2) In the event of a public charter school closure for any reason, the authorizer shall oversee and work with the closing school to ensure a smooth and orderly closure and transition for students and parents, as guided by the closure protocol. In the event of a public charter school closure for any reason, the assets of the school shall be distributed first to satisfy outstanding payroll obligations for employees of the school, then to creditors of the school, and then to the State Treasury to the credit of the Education Trust Fund. If the assets of the school are insufficient to pay all parties to whom the school owes compensation, the prioritization of the distribution of assets may be determined by decree of a court of law.
(e) Charter transfers. Transfer of a charter contract, and of oversight of that public charter school, from one authorizer to another before the expiration of the charter term shall not be permitted except by special petition to the department by a public charter school or its authorizer.

On or before November 1 of each year beginning in the first year after the state has had public charter schools operating for a full school year, the department shall issue to the Governor, the Legislature, and the public at large, an annual report on the state's public charter schools, drawing from the annual reports submitted by every authorizer as well as any additional relevant data compiled by the department, for the school year ending in the preceding calendar year. The annual report shall include a comparison of the performance of public charter school students with the performance of academically, ethnically, and economically comparable groups of students in non-charter public schools. In addition, the annual report shall include the department's assessment of the successes, challenges, and areas for improvement in meeting the purposes of this chapter, including the department's recommendations as to any suggested changes in state law or policy necessary to strengthen the state's public charter schools.

Q: package.config dependencies hell I have to work on a legacy code base that uses packages.config to maintain NuGet dependencies. I implemented a feature that auto rotates a passwords for a service account. I need to install a NuGet package for it to function, 'companyName.PrivilegedAccessManagement'. The problem is whenever I try to add this package, I receive the error message:

One or more unresolved package dependency constraint detected in  the existing packages.config file. All dependency constraint must be resolved to add or update packages. If these packages are being updated this message may be ignored, if not the following errors may be blocking the current package operation:
MongoDB.Driver.Core2.13.2 constraint: System.ValueTuple(>=4.5.0), .CommonSecurity.Authentication3.70.30705 constraint Schwab.Logging 3.10.0

How to get this new package installed in the project? I can't migrate the project to ProjectReference format. The senior engineers/ organisation is not agreeing with that.
Edit: I've tried adding the packages through NuGet package manager console, adding the package name in packages.config file and csproj file. None of these things seem to have any affect. I also tried to added the dependencies before installing the actual package, it still doesn't work, just the error message changes.

Design a show-stopping piece to convey the importance of the rebranding and the institute itself.
How can we make a substantial impact with our exciting news?
The University of Notre Dame's Institute for Church Life had received a major contribution, and the institute was being rebranded to include the donor's name. This was a very exciting time for the institute, and they wanted to share this momentousness with important campus visitors over the summer—including academics, family and the community. The goal was to share the fresh branding and also the value, merit and vision that the institute brought not only to the campus itself, but also to a widespread audience due to its country-wide outreach efforts. A piece needed to be created that was as special as the institute itself.
Starting with the client's initial sketches, I worked with the institute's marketing team to bring their vision for the future of the institute to life. After finalizing the elements of the new logo, we looked to the university admissions department for inspiration and to ensure consistency across all university branded materials.
The result was a longstanding 200-page journal which recipients could use for many purposes. Inside pages were lined or gridded and showcased meaningful quotes throughout. Iconic images of campus, prayers and information reflective of the institute's mission and values were also included at the end. Finishing touches like embossing and spot gloss were added to make this piece extra-special. We even created custom bookmarks to distribute at a campus event!

The NFT Unicorn > Metaverse News > MICA establishes a lab for consumer research in the Metaverse
Posted by By Sawah Imported Press January 24, 2023
What's on Guide to the Metaverse – January 14th-January 16th, 2022
Metaverse is expanding further than one has imagined. In a recent development, MICA has announced the establishment of MICAverse, a lab in the virtual world that will study consumer behavior. It is equipped with the latest technology, which includes virtual reality glasses and several other production tools.
There is constantly a growing application of the Metaverse. A step coming in the direction that analyzes the pattern and behavior of consumers is expected to bring a lot of crowd to the ecosystem. Startups in the virtual and augmented reality segment will see a door opening up for them.
Activities in MICAverse will initially include 3d mapping and the development of travel applications to promote Indian tourism. Existing ventures can always get their hands on the technology; however, this time, it could be the startups to lead the way based on how well they have architected their team and technological infrastructure.
Githa Heggde, MICA's Dean, has added that MICAverse will not just carry out academic research but will also publish research papers in Metaverse along with startups in the metaverse industry. The collaboration between MICAverse and startups will help to develop a better understanding of consumer behavior.
It majorly includes drawing the decision-making chart for a better understanding of how the virtual world influences the behavior of consumers.
Calling it a disruptive ecosystem, Githa has expressed her confidence that the academic research will be of high quality in the domain of the Metaverse.
Suresh Malodia, the Assistant Professor at MICA & the project lead, has emphasized the fact that MICA is taking the lead in terms of understanding the experience of consumers in the Indian context at a time when other universities are looking at the technical aspect of the Metaverse. Suresh has also talked about the University of Norway and Nottingham-Trent University, mentioning that both universities have initiated research in the Metaverse through marketing & consumer research.
Metaverse is being explored by all industries with a mutual objective of reaching a larger number of consumers. The implementation of the technology is a challenge since it requires heavy funding along with infrastructure support for respective governments. The 5G network in India, for instance, is expected to turn the tables for the Metaverse sphere in the country, but it still needs computing devices and the development of virtualization tools, among other things.
UT Rao, an Associate Professor at MICA, has echoed similar words in his statement to the media, along with the mention of exploring Metaverse services like payment systems and marketplaces. Saying that MICA will soon be hosting an event for startups, UT Rao has added many areas that will be explored in Metaverse, including tourism, education, and medicine, to mention a few.
NFT and cryptocurrency will be explored as well since both are expected to change the way a person interacts in virtual space. Startups that join the event are highly expected to be working on AR and VR technology.
