If you are staging children's rooms, it requires a thoughtful plan.
You don't necessarily need to purchase new things to stage a child's room.
You can start the staging process by using what you already have.First, put a new coat of paint in the room, frequently it is money well-spent. Paint makes everything clean and fresh…when selecting colors use only neutral tones, please!Paint out the pinks, blues, sports and Disney themes.Remove almost all of the posters, pictures and so forth, thereby reducing the child's specific 'imprint'.Clean the area rug or remove it entirely as rugs in smaller areas make rooms seem smaller. Minimize the clutter, remove an overabundance of toys and other distractions.Space and light are the names of the game when working to increase any room's appeal.
Clean, clean and clean some more!
Children of all ages tend to overlook dirt and messes.Prepare their rooms by making certain that every single thing in the room has a place and is clean and well-maintained.If the room really needs a fresh bedspread and pillows, include those in your plan.Make sure all furnishings and finishes are in good repair. Lamps and door handles included!Windows should sparkle, drapes should be open when buyers tour and a few touches like a small vase of fresh flowers or a live green plant will make every room more inviting. In addition, make sure the room smells every bit as clean as it looks!
It is helpful to remove 'personal identifiers'.
Personal identifiers like awards, jerseys, trophies, picture frames, souvenirs, name tags and the like are better stored away. These items usually distract from a buyers ability to imagine their own family members living in the space.Please remember, when your home sells, you'll be taking all of these things with you. Therefore, it makes sense to pack them now as part of your plan to move.
Make sure you explain to your child the reasons you are making some changes.
Helping your child understand that these methods will make your home sell more quickly (and for more money) should go a long way toward motivating them to work with you to make these necessary, effective and temporary changes. You can make a game of it for them and award points each time your child helps you prepare their room to be shown. Agree upon a final reward you know they will want, to be awarded when the home goes under contract; as a result, this will make it easier for them to participate in the process and they will look forward to helping you get your home sold.


You don't have to deal with bipolar disorder on your own. Find out where to get information on bipolar disorder, including access to mental health professionals and support groups, and learn strategies to help you cope in everyday life. Also learn where to get help if you need it urgently.
you want information about bipolar disorder.
Bipolar disorder is when people experience serious extremes of mood, to the point where their moods interfere with their daily life. If you have bipolar disorder, your mood is likely to go through extreme highs (known as mania or hypomania) and lows (known as depression). However, what you experience during each mood, and how quickly or slowly you move between high and low moods, is different for everyone. There are also different types of bipolar disorder.
The mood changes and feelings experienced by people with bipolar disorder are different from those that most people experience as part of everyday life. Mood changes that occur as a result of bipolar disorder are extremely disruptive and impact on a person's ability to function from day to day.
You don't have to deal with bipolar disorder on your own. The good news is that there are effective treatments available to manage the condition. However, the sooner you seek professional help, the easier it will be to manage. The condition mostly needs long-term management and treatment under the advice of a GP, psychiatrist and psychologist. If you think you may have bipolar disorder, or you've been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, you can turn to the following individuals, groups and organisations for help and support.
If you think you might have bipolar symptoms, it's really important that you visit a GP, who will work with you to find out what's going on and refer you to other help if necessary.

Maybe there is a better way, but this works too
$(document).ready(function () {
    var containerScoreText = ".hidemeadmin";
    var numberItems = $(containerScoreText).children().length;
    var currentscore = 35;
    for (i = 0; i < numberItems; i++) {
        var key1 =$(containerScoreText).children().eq(i).attr("data-score");
        var key2 = $(containerScoreText).children().eq(i+1).attr("data-score");
        if (currentscore >= key1  && key2 >= currentscore) {
            console.log($(containerScoreText).children().eq(i+1).attr("data-role"));
        }

        if(i == 0 && currentscore <= key1){
           console.log($(containerScoreText).children().eq(i).attr("data-role"));
        }

        //in case you want >80 to be perfect...
        if(i == numberItems-1 && currentscore >= key1){
           console.log($(containerScoreText).children().eq(i).attr("data-role"));

"Early one morning, a bittersweet lyric with a deceptively upbeat melody, tells of false promises and deception. It probably dates from the eighteenth century and is quoted in 1859 by WilliamChappell (Popular Music of the Olden Time), as being 'one of the three most popular songs among the servant-maids of the present generation'. It is here given a rather melancholic treatment, ending simply and sadly, as it began. You can hear the men promising to be ever faithful in measures 56–63, underneath the girls' plaintive reproach."

Lodha was first intercepted by the agency sleuths at the Mumbai airport based on a Look Out Circular while he was seeking to flee the country.
NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested Kolkata-based businessman Paras M Lodha here in connection with a money laundering case relating to alleged conversion of over Rs 25 crore scrapped currency notes with new ones.
Officials said he was arrested by the agency here late on Wednesday after grilling him for hours.
The arrested businessman is connected to Shekhar Reddy and Rohit Tandon cases, also related to illegal exchange of demonetised currency notes.
Meanwhile, the agency on Thursday produced Lodha before a designated court here that granted seven-day custody to the ED.
Lodha has been booked under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA)after the agency took cognisance of FIRs registered against Reddy and Tandon.
The Reddy case relates to Chennai and the Income Tax department had unearthed unaccounted income of over Rs 142 crore. Likewise, the IT department and the Delhi Police had seized Rs 13.5 crore from a law firm run by lawyer Rohit Tandon. The CBI had arrested Reddy on Wednesday.
Following a directive from the Government, multiple agencies have joined hands and are working in a synchronised manner to probe these high-profile cases and unravel the entire nexus between public servants and businessmen involved in illegal exchange of currency notes.


A system and method for dynamically disabling partially streamed content may include a server receiving a request from a client. A session may be initiated or continued in response to the request. The server may begin to stream content to the client as a partial fulfillment of the request. While processing the request, the server may determine if the partially streamed content should be disabled. In response to determining that the partially streamed content should be disabled, the server may disable the partially streamed content without terminating the session. Disabling the partially streamed content may involve preventing the client from accessing content referenced by a hyperlink associated with the partially streamed content, or may involve the use of a controller located on the client to disable content streamed to the client.
This invention relates to the field of network computer systems and, more particularly, to a mechanism for disabling content partially streamed to a client.
The client/server relationship is widespread in modem networked computing, particularly in the domain of the Internet and World Wide Web. For example, a client may contact a server via a network and request a service or a piece of information. A web server may provide copies of various web pages to a plurality of clients. More specifically, a client may contact the web server with the URL of a specific web page, which may then be sent to the client and displayed for the user.
As described above, web servers primarily retrieve files from one or more data sources and transmit the information therein over a network. Alternatively or additionally, servers may execute significantly more computation in response to a client request. For example, a website may use a database in tandem with common gateway interface (CGI) scripts to provide a more dynamic content retrieval system. In such an example, a client may request information related to a certain topic from the server. The server may then execute a search for the topic on an internal database, and dynamically assemble a web page with the desired content before returning the results to the client. Additional computation may be executed on the server when handling other web-based applications, such as electronic commerce.
Because such extra computation or large content sizes may increase the turnaround time for the server responding to a client's request, the server may partially stream content, including hyperlinks, to a client while continuing to process the request. As additional content is assembled, the server may continue streaming content until the request has been fully satisfied.
However, after such content is sent to the client, it cannot typically be recalled. This may pose a problem if the server encounters any difficulties in its continuing calculations or request processing after sending partial content to the client. For example, the server may detect a security violation in further processing that makes it necessary to deny the client access to hyperlinks that have already been sent. Alternatively, the server may receive an error message or time out from a resource necessary to complete the client request, such as a database. In this scenario, the entire session may rendered invalid.
In one embodiment, a method for dynamically disabling partially streamed content may include a server processing a request from a client. The request may initiate or continue a session between the server and the client. The method may further include streaming out content from the server to the client as a partial fulfillment of the request. While processing the request, the method may include determining if the content should be disabled, and if the content should be disabled, disabling the content without terminating the session. The content may be disabled by invalidating links associated with the partially streamed content and/or by instructing a controller on the client to disable partially streamed content received by the client.
FIG. 1 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for dynamically disabling partially streamed content, according to one embodiment.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a system for dynamically disabling partially streamed content.
FIG. 3 is a flow diagram illustrating an embodiment of a method for dynamically disabling partially streamed content including invalidating hyperlinks.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a system for dynamically disabling partially streamed content, including one or more controllers.
FIG. 5 is a flow diagram illustrating an embodiment of a method for dynamically disabling partially streamed content including using a controller.
FIGS. 6A and 6B are flow diagrams illustrating embodiments of a method for disabling partially streamed content including using a controller.
FIG. 7 illustrates an exemplary server for implementing certain embodiments.
Turning now to FIG. 1, a flow diagram illustrating a method for dynamically disabling partially streamed content is shown. As will be described below, the method may be executable on a server to disable partially streamed content to a client. In one embodiment, content may include one or more hyperlinks which lead back to additional information on the server, for example. In another embodiment, content may include one more pieces of information calculated or provided as a result of a request from a client to an application on the server, as will be described below.
In 100, the server receives a request from a client. The request may begin the execution of an application process on the server, thereby initiating a session between the client and the application on the server. Or the request may be made as part of an existing session. In one embodiment, a session may comprise multiple requests and responses between the application and the client, wherein each request is operable to further control, modify, or inform the application, and each response further informs the client of the results of the request.
In 102, the application, operating through the server, may begin to stream content to the client as a partial fulfillment of the request from the client, while continuing to process the request. Content may be partially streamed out to minimize latency in the interaction between client and application. For example, in one embodiment, a request may take a significant amount of time to process entirely. The application may therefore begin to stream some results to the client as the results are determined, rather than waiting for all results to be determined before streaming all results as a single block to the client.
In 104, the client may receive content and begin to display or act upon the results therein. In one embodiment, the client may allow an end user to access one or more hyperlinks contained within the content. Accessing the hyperlinks may in turn initiate a new request to the server within the context of the session, thereby allowing the client access to additional content located on or controlled by the server.
In 106, the server may determine that some or all of the streamed content may be invalid. In one embodiment, this determination may derive from a security violation within the application, wherein the application or server determines that the client or some other process involved in the request should not have been allowed access to one or more pieces of content, for example. In another embodiment, this determination may derive from a timeout while handling the request, wherein the application or server determines that sufficient time has passed during the processing of the request to render some or all of the streamed content invalid. Other reasons are also contemplated for determining that some or all of the partially streamed content is or may be invalid.
If, in 106, the server determines that no streamed content is invalid, the server continues to process the request in 108. Alternatively, if the server determines that some of the streamed content is invalid, the server may determine which client or clients and which content should be disabled, as indicated by 110. In one embodiment, the server may examine the session data to determine which clients have received invalid content. The server may then take one or more steps to disable the content determined to be invalid. For example, the server may prevent the client that received invalid content from accessing one or more hyperlinks associated with the content, as will be described below. In another embodiment, the server may communicate with a controller on the client to disable the invalid content streamed to the client. It is noted that, in disabling the content, the server may not terminate the session between the client and the application, thereby allowing the client to continue utilizing the application and request other content without having to restart the session.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a system for dynamically disabling partially streamed content. Server 200 may communicate with any of the clients 230A-C via network 220. Clients 230A-C may be operable to send requests to one or more applications 210A-C on server 200, and receive content back, as described above. Network 220 may be a point-to-point fabric, a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), the Internet, any other type of computing interconnect, or a combination thereof. For the purposes of clarity it is noted that any notation in the form of, for example, A-C, may refer to any or all of the elements in the group A-C.
Applications 210A-C may be any type of application executable in a networked system. Such applications may include, but are not limited to, database applications, web applications, file server applications, or e-commerce applications, for example. Server 20 may also include a content disabling mechanism 212, as will be described below.
Content disabling mechanism 212 may implement logic to disable access to content that has been streamed out to one or more clients. In one embodiment, content disabling mechanism 212 may exist as one or more utilities or services provided in server 200 which provides various functionality to applications 210A-C. This content disabling functionality may include, but not be limited to, functionality for tracking streamed content and taking steps to disable content determined to be invalid, such as disabling hyperlinks and/or relaying content disabling messages to one or more client controllers. In one embodiment, content disabling mechanism 212 may indicate that a given hyperlink is invalid by associating an error message with the hyperlink, as will be described below.
In one embodiment, content disabling mechanism 212 may include or be interoperable with a session tracking system operable to monitor a plurality of sessions running between applications 210A-C and a plurality of end users on a plurality of clients. Such a session tracking system may additionally monitor information including, but not limited to, session ID, client ID, user ID, client address, streamed content per session, requests pending and/or requests serviced.
In one embodiment, content disabling mechanism 212 may include or be interoperable with a content lookup table, which may be operable to provide a lookup service connecting one or more streamed hyperlinks to one or more pieces of content or web pages served by server 200. For example, in one embodiment, a client 230A-C may send a request for content associated with a hyperlink to an application 210A-C on server 200. In response, application 210A-C may use a content lookup table to determine which content is associated with the hyperlink. Application 210A-C may then return the content associated with the hyperlink to client 230A-C.
Turning now to FIG. 3, a flow diagram illustrating a more specific embodiment of the method illustrated in FIG. 1 is shown. As will be described below, the method may be executable on a server to dynamically disable partially streamed content to a client.
Referring collectively now to FIGS. 2-3, in 300, server 200 receives a request from a client 230A-C. The request may begin a session or be part of an existing session between the client and an application 210A-C on the server. As described in FIG. 1, in one embodiment, the session may comprise multiple requests and responses between application 210A-C and client 230A-C.
In 302, application 210A-C operating through server 200 may begin to stream content to client 230A-C as a partial fulfillment of the request from client 230A-C, while continuing to process the request. Content may be partially streamed out to minimize latency in the interaction between client and application, as described in FIG. 1. It is noted that in one embodiment, content disabling mechanism 212 may track specific information on which links streamed to which client lead to which content on server 200.
In 304, client 230A-C may receive content and begin to display or act upon the results therein. In 306, content disabling mechanism 212 may determine that some or all of the content which has been streamed to client 230A-C may be invalid, as described in FIG. 1.
If, in 306, content disabling mechanism 212 determines that no streamed content is invalid, application 230A-C may continue to process the request in 308. Alternatively, if content disabling mechanism 212 determines that the streamed content is invalid, application 230A-C may advance to 310, wherein content disabling mechanism 212 determines which content for which client(s) should be disabled, as described in FIG. 1. In one embodiment, disabling content may include disabling one or more links that have been sent to a client within a session. Content disabling mechanism 212 may cause server 200 to return an error message when any of the disabled hyperlinks are accessed by client 230A-C. In one embodiment, to disable hyperlinks content disabling mechanism 212 may invalidate one or more entries in a hyperlink look-up table that corresponds hyperlinks sent to a client within a particular session to particular content.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a system for dynamically disabling partially streamed content, similar to FIG. 2. However, in addition to content disabling mechanism 212, server 200 may also utilize one or more controllers 400 in various embodiments to disable partially streamed content, as will be described below.
The functionalities of server 200, application 210A-C, network 220, and clients 230A-C are broadly similar to the functionalities described above in FIG. 2. In addition to the functionality described above in FIG. 2, content disabling mechanism 212 may be able to remotely control controllers 400, as described below.
A Controller 400 may be operable on clients 230A-C to disable content that has been streamed to clients 230A-C from server 200. In one embodiment, a controller 400 may prevent a client 230A-C from accessing hyperlinks which reference content stored on server 200, as directed by content disabling mechanism 212. For example, controller 400 may interact with a client browser application to deactivate certain links or block certain links. In one embodiment, controller 400 may be operable to prevent clients 230A-C from accessing hyperlinks by disabling those hyperlinks on a browser display, while in another embodiment, controller 400 may be operable to return an error message whenever a disabled hyperlink is accessed.
Controller 400 may additionally or alternatively be operable to disable content on a client in other ways. For example, controller 400 may prevent content from being copied or saved to another location. Other ways of disabling content on a client are contemplated. In one embodiment, controller 400 may cache content and prevent any such content from being displayed until content disabling mechanism 212 sends an indication that the content is verified as valid, for example.
In one embodiment, controller 400 may already be installed on a client 230A-C prior to the initiation of a session, as illustrated by controller 4001 at client 230B in FIG. 4. For example, a controller 400 may be a separate process running on the client, or may be built in to a client browser application. Alternatively, a controller 400 may sent to a client 230A-C by server 200, as illustrated by client 230C in FIG. 4, for example. As will be described below, in one embodiment controller 400 may be sent to the client at the beginning of a session, while in another embodiment, controller 400 may be sent to the client after content disabling mechanism 212 has determined that certain content on a given client should be invalidated.
In one embodiment, a controller may be specific to a given application 210A-C. For example, controller 400A on client 230A in FIG. 4 may be provided by or specified by application 210A. In one embodiment, each application 210A-C may directly control an associated controller 400. In another embodiment, content disabling mechanism 212 to communicate with and control the associated controller 400. In one embodiment, an interface to a controller 400 may be specified in a descriptor file or configuration file on server 200. Content disabling mechanism 212 may access the descriptor or configuration file to locate an appropriate controller for an application and determine how to communicate with the controller and what functions are supported by the controller. In some embodiments, all controllers may follow a standard interface.
In one embodiment, server 200 may provide a controller 400 as a default controller (represent by controller 400S in FIG. 4) that may be used for all applications, or for applications that do not specify their own controller.
Controllers 400 may be installed on clients 230A-C prior to the beginning of a session, at the beginning of a session, or upon the determination that streamed content is invalid.
Turning now to FIG. 5, a flow diagram illustrating a more specific embodiment of the method illustrated in FIG. 1 is shown. As will be described below, the method may be executable on a server to dynamically disable partially streamed content to a client by instructing a controller to prevent disabled content from being accessed or used, for example.
Referring collectively now to FIGS. 4-5, in 500, server 200 receives a request from a client 230A-C. The request may begin the execution of an application 210A-C on server 200, thereby initiating or continuing a session between client 210A-C and application 210A-C on the server. As described in FIG. 1, in one embodiment, the session may comprise multiple requests and responses between application 210A-C and client 230A-C.
In 502, application 210A-C operating through server 200 may begin to stream content to client 230A-C as a partial fulfillment of the request from client 230A-C, while continuing to process the request. Content may be partially streamed out to minimize latency in the interaction between client and application, as described in FIG. 1. Content disabling mechanism 212 may track specific information on which links streamed to which client lead to which content on server 200, as previously described in FIG. 3.
In 504, client 230A-C may receive content and begin to display or act upon the results therein. In 506, content disabling mechanism 212 may determine that some or all of the content which has been streamed to client 230A-C may be invalid, as described in FIG. 1.
If, in 506, content disabling mechanism 212 determines that no streamed content is invalid, application 230A-C may continue to process the request in 508. Alternatively, if content disabling mechanism 212 determines that the streamed content is invalid, application 210A-C may advance to 510, wherein content disabling mechanism 212 determines which content for which client(s) should be disabled, as described in FIG. 1. Content disabling mechanism 212 may then operate controller 400 on client 230A-C, to prevent client 230A-C from using or from accessing the content to be disabled.
In some embodiments, in disabling the content, the server may allow the session to continue between the client and the application, thereby allowing the client to continue utilizing the application and retrieve content without restarting the entire session. Thus, certain content may be disabled while still preserving the state of the session and/or prior results.
FIGS. 6A and 6B both show a flow diagram illustrating a specific embodiment of the method illustrated in FIG. 5. In both illustrations, the method and functionalities described are substantially similar. However, FIG. 6A illustrates a controller being sent (or downloaded) to a client 230A-C after the initiation of a session, whereas FIG. 6B illustrates a controller being sent after the determination that partially streamed content is invalid.
Turning now to FIG. 6A and referring collectively to FIGS. 4-6A, in 600, server 200 receives a request from a client 230A-C. The request may initiate a session between client 210A-C and application 210A-C on the server. As described in FIG. 1, in one embodiment, the session may comprise multiple requests and responses between application 210A-C and client 230A-C.
In 602, server 200 may send a controller 400 to a client 230C. In one embodiment, the server may download the controller to the client as part of the session initiation. In one embodiment, the server may determine whether or not an appropriate controller is already installed on the client, and download the controller only if an appropriate controller is not already installed on the client. In one embodiment, the controller may comprise one or more Java classes, while in another embodiment, the controller may be an executable or an interpreted script, for example. In one embodiment, the controller may be associated with a web browser, while in another embodiment, the controller may be as stand-alone program or utility.
In 604, application 210A-C operating through server 200 may begin to stream content to client 230A-C as a partial fulfillment of the request from client 230A-C, while continuing to process the request. Content may be partially streamed out to minimize latency in the interaction between client and application, as described in FIG. 1. The server, or content disabling mechanism 212, may then track specific information on which links streamed to which client lead to which content on server 200.
In 606, client 230A-C may receive content and begin to display or act upon the results therein. In 608, the server, or content disabling mechanism 212, may determine that some or all of the content which has been streamed to client 230A-C may be invalid, as described in FIG. 1.
If, in 608, the server, or content disabling mechanism 212, determines that no streamed content is invalid, application 230A-C may continue to process the request in 610. Alternatively, if content disabling mechanism 212 determines that the streamed content is invalid, content disabling mechanism 212 may determine which client and which content should be disabled, as indicated at 612. The server, or content disabling mechanism, may invalidate content streamed to a client by instructing the controller on the client, as indicated at 614.
Turning now to FIG. 6B and referring collectively to FIGS. 4-6B, in 650, server 200 receives a request from a client 230A-C. The request may initiate or continue a session between client 210A-C and application 210A-C on the server. As described in FIG. 1, in one embodiment, the session may comprise multiple requests and responses between application 210A-C and client 230A-C.
In 652, application 210A-C operating through server 200 may begin to stream content to client 230A-C as a partial fulfillment of the request from client 230A-C, while continuing to process the request. Content may be partially streamed out to minimize latency in the interaction between client and application, as described in FIG. 1. Content disabling mechanism 212 may then track specific information on which links streamed to which client lead to which content on server 200.
In 654, client 230A-C may receive content and begin to display or act upon the results therein. In 656, server 200 may determine that some or all of the content which has been streamed to client 230A-C may be invalid, as described in FIG. 1.
If, in 656, server 200, or content disabling mechanism 212, determines that no streamed content is invalid, application 230A-C may continue to process the request in 658. Alternatively, if it is determined that the streamed content is invalid, the server, or content disabling mechanism 212, may determine which content for which client(s) should be disabled, as described in FIG. 1.
In 662, server 200 may send a controller 400 to a client 230C upon determining that content needs to be disabled for that client. In one embodiment, the controller may comprise one or more Java classes, while in another embodiment, the controller may be an executable or an interpreted script, for example. In one embodiment, the controller may be associated with a web browser, while in another embodiment, the controller may be as stand-alone program or utility. In 664, the server, or content disabling mechanism 212, may operate controller 400 to prevent client 230A-C from accessing any content. For example, the controller may prevent copying or saving of the content. Or the controller may prevent further display of the content. Or the controller may disable hyperlinks in the content. In some embodiments, the controller may interact with a client browser application to perform these various types content disabling.
It is noted that various embodiments may combine the various aspects of the functionalities discussed herein. For example, content disabling mechanism 212 may directly manage hyperlinks, while utilizing controller 400 to prevent a client from saving, copying or printing partially streamed content.
Turning now to FIG. 7, an exemplary computer system 700 is shown. Computer system 700 may include main memory 720, which may be coupled to multiple processors 710A-B, and I/O interface 730. It is noted that the number of processors is purely illustrative, and that one or more processors may be resident on the system. I/O interface 730 may connect to network interface 760, hard disk drive 740, display adapter 750, and/or removable storage adapter 770.

In my opinion, 2014 has been a great year in anime, and just an interesting year in general. It's the first year that I really kept up seasonally with anime, It's the first year I've stuck around TAY/AniTAY and I've found some shows that I love and would consider some of my favorites… so I kinda have to do this. Today, I'm sharing my favorite anime of the year.
Justification & Thoughts: How ironic. Before it was airing, I was hyping this up like no end, desperately hoping that they'd do the VN justice, hoping that it would be one of the best anime I've ever seen…. But now that the first cour is done, it's not even my top ten of the year. I'm so conflicted on my thoughts with this show: It's pretty good and I know that UBW gets better later, but that doesn't really excuse how meh this show can be at times. The visuals are glorious, the fight scenes are awesome, and they are doing the arc justice for the most part, but I have major issues with the show. The internal monologuing is completely gone (which was one of the best parts of the VN), the soundtrack is a complete disappointment, there's something off about the show with the writing that just makes me kinda bored, disconnected as I'm watching it. That being said, I'm still enjoying it, but nowhere near as much as I thought I would. It maybe because I'm used to marathoning the VN and waiting a week is just wrecking the pacing for me, but it's nowhere near as good as I was hoping. I have it here in honorable mentions because I don't want to put my final judgment on this show until it's completely done, and there are other shows that deserve to be in this list moreso than F/SN. See my article when it's out for my full thoughts on this cour, and I'll do a full review when it's done. Let's hope it pulls a Steins;Gate and becomes amazing after episode 12.
Justification & Thoughts: Sorry, guilty pleasure time, but Date A Live 2 is amazing and I really loved it! I'm a fan of Romance anime (which will make itself VERY apparent as you read through this list), and this is one of my favorite Rom-Com Animes of this year. It was just the right amount of insanity and fun in a show, and IMS FOR THE WIN, IMS FOR LIFE. It's so well done, it's just so awesome that I can't help but love it... it's really one of the most entertaining harem shows you will see, if you are into that. Check Dex's articles for more thoughts, as they pretty much reflect mine.
Summary: Inari Konkon follows Inari Fushimi, a clutzy, shy girl who just happens to have a crush on Kouji Tanababashi. She manages to embarrass herself in front of her crush and flees from the scene to a local shrine where she saves a fox pup named Kon from falling into the river. Due to this, the guardian deity of the shrine, Uka reveils herself to Inari and grants her a wish. Inari being the clumsy middle school girl she is, wishes to be the girl that her crush likes… but soon realizes that this isn't what she wants and asks to turn back to her original self. Things don't go exactly as planned, and Uta has to give some of her powers to turn Inari back to her original form. What follows is a story of change and growing up, a story of facing the consequences for your actions. - Summary from the Ten Anime No One Saw article.
Justification & Thoughts: Inari Konkon is a great show because it's engaging, the pacing is perfect, and the character's change is wonderful. The interactions they have with each other, the relationships that change and growth of each character as they react to the situation is done very well, and because of it, there is no part of the story that us dull. It's also hilarious and adorable to boot. Also, say it again with me, IMS FOR THE WIN, IMS FOR LIFE. They really do a great job, and I'm looking forward to what they do in the future. Check out Thatsmapizza's review of the manga for another opinion.
Justification & Thoughts: A show that blends music seamlessly into the storyline, has passionate emotions and great characters? How can I not love this show? Seriously, this show is a blast to watch, I love the development and reactions of the characters (as a person who grew under Tiger Parents, I can really relate to Kousei, moreso than any other character I've seen in anime), and the show is just extremely well written. The show gets you emotionally attached with an amazing display of tone and a narrative that's as moving as the music itself... it's executed great and it's pretty amazing. I'm looking forward to more, and I hope it stays amazing.
Summary: The 17-year-old Izumi Shinichi lives with his mother and father in a quiet neighborhood in Tokyo. One night, worm-like aliens called Parasytes invade Earth, taking over the brains of human hosts by entering through their ears or noses. One Parasyte attempts to crawl into Shinichi's ear while he sleeps, but fails since he is wearing headphones, and enters his body by burrowing into his arm instead, taking over his right hand and is named Migi.
Justification & Thoughts: From the brilliant pacing, to the interesting premise and the awesome characters (Migi = best hand), I am really having a blast with Parasite, and it's so well executed that I can't help but watch it. It's extremely engaging, it's consistently entertaining, and the situations that the characters get themselves into are great. Watching Shinichi grow, develop and change throughout the show is phenomenal, the events and action in this show is great, and it's just a blast. It's one of the few shows in the year that made me go: I NEED TO WATCH THIS NOW because of how well executed it was, and that excitement and urge to watch is why I have this on the list.
Justification & Thoughts: My romance loving side is showing. Again. Written well, realistic characters (except for that damn ghost), awesome interactions, great comedy, and solid drama lead me to love this show. I got sucked into the narrative as a part of Feels Thursday, and I loved every bit of it, getting me attached and engaged with the characters and the plot. Also, it's written by the writer of Toradora, and it really shows: it's just as good as Toradora in almost every way, even having a better ending. Check out Dex's and UI 2.0's Review + Discussion if you want more thoughts.
Justification & Thoughts: I'm typically not a big fan of short anime, but this comedy anime convinced me otherwise... It's one of the best comedies out there, and one of the best short anime out there. It's hilarious, well rounded, brilliantly paced, has a great concept, and an amazing vocal performance by Kana Hanazawa really makes this show great. Really, for what it is, it's damn near perfect, and I couldn't ask for more. It's a great comedy, and I urge everyone to watch it... you'll be hooked, just like I was. For more thoughts, check out the above mentioned review by Koda89, or Richard's review.
Summary: Raku Ichijou is an average high school student. He also happens to be the sole heir to the head of a Yakuza Family called the Shuei-gumi. Ten years ago, Raku made a promise... a secret promise with a girl he met. They promised one another that they will "get married when they reunite." Since then, Raku never let go of the pendant the girl gave him.
I'm a sucker for Rom-Coms, if you haven't learned from this list. Best Girl - The Animation 2014 drew me in so fast that you can't believe it... and I fell in love. This is a hilarious and entertaining Romantic comedy series that had everyone fighting over who was best girl (stop lying to yourself, you know it's Onodera....) while just enjoying a very shafty over the top romantic comedy with great characters, entertaining visuals, great writing, and just interesting character interactions in general. I like this show quite a bit more than the rest here on AniTAY, so it's way higher on my list than most, people would even dare, but I'm that big of a fan of it. I can't wait for season 2, such a great show. By that, I mean it litterally as I couldn't wait and now it's one of my favorite manga. For more thoughts, check out UI 2.0's review of it, or Richard's review of it.
"It's a kind of anime that we haven't seen for a while that has that sci-fi spirit. Using digital technology cultivated through games, it creates animation that encapsulates Japan's cultural assets like manga, cel animation, kanji, giant robots, etc. What's born is a unique made-in-Japan work that could never be cooked up in Hollywood. Japanese culture has lost its "cool," and Knights of Sidonia will be the white knight that saves it."
If you want more thoughts, check out Richard's review of Knights of Sidonia.
Justification & Thoughts: One of the best comedies you will ever see, and I loved every bit of it. It's a well executed subversion and lampshading of the Shoujo manga genre, focused on being an entertaining comedy with every time spent making you laugh. I loved it, and it's one of the most entertaining shows I've watched out there. If you want more of my thoughts, check out my review, and Richard's review.
Anime Hilariously Explores What Makes Something "Romantic"
Justification & Thoughts: This is pretty much the reason why I made this list. Such a great show. Absolutely beautiful visuals that blew my mind (one of the best in the industry), amazing music... and the writing by Mari Okada. It's an absoutely well written show with great drama, great characters, great interactions, and on and on and on. I was hooked the second I started watching it, and I absolutely fell in love with the show, so much so that it's now one of my favorite anime, currently sitting at #7. I don't think I've seen a coming of age quite like this one, and I loved every bit of it. If you want more of my thoughts, check out my review.

I have to say, I'm not really on board with Disney doing all of these live action remakes. So few of them have improved on the originals that I struggle to see the value. I liked Cinderella a lot and I think a new Mulan could be really good but they need to be more selective. Maleficent went way off book, The Jungle Book had none of the charm of its predecessor and even Beauty & the Beast failed to add much to what we already had. I recognise that these new versions of their animated classics are making the studio a lot of money and much of that is because they are recognised properties but here as with everywhere (apart from the MCU) I'd much rather they invested in original ideas.
So why, might you ask, do I keep giving these films my cash? It is because I always hope that the next might be the good one and because I really can't be taught. (I keep watching the current crop of DC superhero movies for the same reason.) Dumbo had potential too. For a start I'm not a particular fan of the original film (apologies to my mother-in-law who always baulks and tuts when I say this). To my mind it's overly sentimental and twee (I know Mrs B, I'm sorry). The bigger factor here though was Tim Burton. The man is an exceptional Hollywood visionary and this story of a freakish loner in a fantastical circus world should have suited his sensibilities perfectly. (When she heard that Burton was doing this film my eldest daughter instantly nicknamed it 'Skelephant' which was just genius and a better idea than any that ended up on screen.) Also, let's not forget that while it was not perfect, Burton's reimagining of Alice in Wonderland was another of the better examples of Disney mining it's past. Unfortunately none of the brilliant design and smart characterisation seen in that film is evident here.
It isn't that Dumbo is a terrible film; I'm sure a younger audience will respond to the baby elephant and the plucky kids but there is little surprise or excitement here and the setting and acting all feel a little flat. Crucially what it is missing most though is any sense of magic and in live action more than animation, you really need that to believe an elephant can fly.
I can't help but think that the idea to do this film must have come before any ideas of how to do this film. All the best movies have a story that deserves to be told but this one doesn't, despite the fact that much the same story has been told before. 2019's Dumbo is forty five minutes longer than 1941's Dumbo and the narrative is padded with war heroes, bereavement, capitalism, tokenistic feminism, fire, false limbs, mermaids and robots but none of it lands. Similarly many of the familiar elements feel shoehorned in, especially the pink elephants sequence which doesn't make any sense at all. As for the new Dumbo himself, he just looked like someone had over inflated E.T.
Sorry Disney but it is time to go back to the drawing board.
I don't give them my money so I like to think I'm helping, lol!

Fitch Downgrades Ratings of Celulosa Arauco y Constitucion S.A.
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Fitch Ratings has downgraded the foreign and local currency Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) of Celulosa Arauco y Constitucion S.A. (Arauco) to 'BBB' from 'BBB+', as well as its national scale rating to 'AA-(cl)' from 'AA (cl)'. In a related move, Fitch has downgraded the foreign currency IDR of Arauco's Argentine operating subsidiary, Alto Parana S.A., to 'BBB' from 'BBB+'. The unsecured debt issued by Arauco and Alto Parana has also been downgraded, to 'BBB' and 'AA- (cl)', respectively, from 'BBB+' and 'AA (cl)'. Arauco and Alto Parana's ratings have been removed from Rating Watch Negative, and a Stable Outlook has been assigned.
These downgrades follow the closing of Arauco's acquisition of Flakeboard Company Limited, a panel company in the North American market for $242 million plus the assumption of debt. They reflect an aggressive approach to growth over the past couple of years that has resulted in a leveraging of the company's capital structure. In addition to Flakeboard, Arauco has increased its leverage through the funding structure of its Uruguay pulp joint venture, Montes del Plata; the acquisition of additional board assets in Moncure, North Carolina; and the purchase of land in Brazil through a joint venture. The downgrades factor in Fitch's expectation for sluggish pulp prices in the next few years, which should prevent a material reduction in the company's debt through the use of cash flow from operations. They also factor in Fitch's expectation that the company's capital structure will not be managed to the levels that it was between 2002 and 2011, when its net debt-to-EBITDA ratio averaged 2.2x.
Arauco generated $1.065 billion of EBITDA, including business interruption insurance, during the last 12 months (LTM) ended June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, the company had $4.3 billion of total debt, including $339 million of guaranteed debt at its Montes del Plata pulp joint venture. Fitch projects Arauco's net debt to increase to about $3.8 billion at the end of 2012, from $2.9 billion as of Dec. 31, 2011. Adjusted net debt, including 50% of the off-balance-sheet debt at Montes del Plata that the company guarantees, should climb to about $4.3 billion from about $3 billion during this same time period.
Fitch projects Arauco will generate nearly $1 billion of EBITDA during 2012, including projected insurance receipts for business interruption. This would result in growth of the company's net debt-to-EBITDA ratio to about 3.8x at the end of 2012 from 2.2x in 2011, and its adjusted net debt/EBITDA ratio to about 4.4x from about 2.3x in 2011. For 2013 and 2014, Fitch is cautious on pulp price projections, which could limit the EBITDA growth of Arauco's pulp division. The company's panels and sawn timber businesses should benefit from stronger economic growth in Latin America, as well as a gradually improving U.S. housing market. The addition of 12 months of operations from the company's recent acquisitions - Moncure and Flakeboard - should increase baseline EBITDA levels by more than $100 million.
The debt of Montes del Plata that Arauco guarantees should peak at around $650 million in 2013, when construction of this pulp mill is completed. Arauco is expected to actively manage its capex and investment activities in the near future to lower its debt level. Net leverage should begin to reduce from above 3.0x during 2014 as the company benefits from 12 months of output from the Montes del Plata mill. Fitch is cautious about the pulp environment during the next three years, as several mills will become operational in Latin America. The increase in global market pulp supply as a result, plus sluggish demand, will likely lead to depressed prices that would hinder operating cash flow throughout the sector. Over time, supply and demand should become more balanced as high-cost producers in the Northern Hemisphere exit the industry.
Arauco has been aggressive during the past year as it sought to purchase assets during a period of market weakness. The company's Brazilian joint venture (49% owned by Arauco and 51% by Klabin) acquired 107,000 hectares of land in the Brazilian state of Parana for $473.5 million during November 2011. The company made purchases during 2012 that will give it a strong position in the North American board market and will complement its imports of plywood and moulding. During January, Arauco purchased MDF and HDF production lines in Moncure, North Carolina, as well as a particleboard plant, for $56 million plus $6 million of working capital. These assets, plus those of Flakeboard, will give the company about 3 million cubic meters of board capacity in North America and will give the company an MDF market share of about 35%.
A positive rating action is not likely in the near term because of Fitch's view that pulp prices will remain at low levels, which limits operating free cash flow. A return to debt levels closer to those maintained by the company historically for a period of time would be viewed positively and could lead to an upgrade of the company's ratings. A negative rating action is not likely in the near- to medium-term. Arauco is considering replacing an old pulp mill with a new line. If this project goes forward, it is expected to have a capital structure that would not result in a negative rating action.

Q: How to remove all 'nil' values from an array? I have an array of objects (or just numbers), and I have another array which contains all the objects that should not be removed from the first array in any circumstances. It looks something like this:
-- Array of objects (just numbers for now)
Objects = {}

-- Array of objects that should always stay in the 'Objects' array
DontDestroyThese = {}

-- Populate the arrays
Objects[#Objects+1] = 1
Objects[#Objects+1] = 2
Objects[#Objects+1] = 3
Objects[#Objects+1] = 4
Objects[#Objects+1] = 5

DontDestroyThese[#DontDestroyThese+1] = 2
DontDestroyThese[#DontDestroyThese+1] = 5

Now, I have a method called destroy() that should remove all objects from the Objects array except those included in the DontDestroyThese array. The method looks something like this:
function destroy()
    for I = 1, #Objects do
        if(DontDestroyThese[Objects[I]] ~= nil) then
            print("Skipping " .. Objects[I])
        else
            Objects[I] = nil
        end
    end
end

However, as the result, the Objects array now contains nil values here and there. I'd like to remove these nils so that the Objects array would consist only of the numbers that were left there after calling destroy(). How do I do that?

A: The most efficient way is probably to create a new table to hold the result. Trying to move values around in the array is likely to have a higher overhead than simply appending to a new table:
function destroy()
    local tbl = {}
    for I = 1, #Objects do
        if(DontDestroyThese[Objects[I]] ~= nil) then
            table.insert(tbl, Objects[I])
        end
    end
    Objects = tbl
end

This method also means you don't have to deal with altering the contents of the table/array you're iterating over.

A: I think the solution is much simpler.  To remove any nils ('holes' in your array), all you need to do is iterate your table using pairs().  This will skip over any nils returning only the non-nil values that you add to a new local table that is returned in the end of the 'cleanup' function.  Arrays (tables with indices from 1..n) will remain with the same order.  For example:
function CleanNils(t)
  local ans = {}
  for _,v in pairs(t) do
    ans[ #ans+1 ] = v
  end
  return ans
end

Then you simply need to do this:
Objects = CleanNils(Objects)

To test it:
function show(t)
  for _,v in ipairs(t) do
    print(v)
  end
  print(('='):rep(20))
end

t = {'a','b','c','d','e','f'}
t[4] = nil          --create a 'hole' at 'd'
show(t)             --> a b c
t = CleanNils(t)    --remove the 'hole'
show(t)             --> a b c e f

A: local function remove(t, pred)
  for i = #t, 1, -1 do
    if pred(t[i], i) then
      table.remove(t, i)
    end
  end
  return t
end

local function even(v)
  return math.mod(v, 2) == 0
end

-- remove only even numbers
local t = remove({1, 2, 3, 4}, even)

-- remove values you want
local function keep(t)
  return function(v)
    return not t[v]
  end
end

remove(Objects, keep(DontDestroyThese))

The Must-Have Test for Age 50 and Over
What to expect during a traditional or virtual colonoscopy
by Edward Paredez, MD
If you knew there was a health screening exam that is virtually painless, covered by most insurance plans and could potentially save your life, wouldn't you be sure to have it?
The answer is probably "yes." Yet more than 50 percent of people who should have a colonoscopy — a screening exam that can detect, treat and even prevent colon cancer — haven't done it. Many don't know they should. Others put it off because they worry that it will be painful. Still others think that colon cancer only affects men, or that once you have it, there is no treatment.
Colonoscopy to detect colon cancer
However, these are all misconceptions. The fact is, colon cancer affects both men and women equally. It is the third most common cancer in the United States, and the American Cancer Society estimates that there will be over 108,000 new cases of colon cancer in the country this year.
But thanks to screening techniques like colonoscopy that find the disease in its most treatable stages, the death rate from colon cancer has been decreasing; the five-year survival rate for patients whose cancer is detected in the early stages is 90 percent.
Moreover, colonoscopy can detect polyps, which are small growths in the lining of the colon, before they become cancerous, thereby preventing cancer from even developing.
Because colon cancer usually has no early warning signs, colonoscopy is the best way to diagnose it.
Who should have a colonoscopy?
In general, everyone should have a colonoscopy at age 50, with repeated screenings every 10 years. Your physician may recommend that you start screening at an earlier age if you have other risk factors, including:
Personal history of polyps or chronic inflammatory bowel disease (such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease)
Family history of colon cancer
An inherited condition that may increase risk
Smoking or use of other tobacco products
A diet high in fat, especially animal fat, and low in fiber
What to expect during a colonoscopy
There are several types of colon cancer screening techniques, but colonoscopy remains the "gold standard" to evaluate and diagnose both cancerous and precancerous growths. Colonoscopy allows the physician to inspect and sample the tissue in the rectum and colon via a long, flexible tube with an attached camera.
The tube is inserted through the rectum, and images from the camera are displayed on a video monitor, which enables the physician to see polyps, inflamed tissue or other irregularities. Should any abnormalities be found, they can be biopsied or removed during the procedure.
Some people avoid having a colonoscopy because they are afraid of the procedure, but it sounds far worse than it actually is. Patients are sedated and often fall asleep during the test, which takes only 15-30 minutes.
Virtual colonoscopy vs. traditional colonoscopy
An alternative type of colonoscopy, called virtual colonoscopy (VC), is available for patients who cannot take sedation drugs or have scar tissue or other obstructions that prevent the scope from getting through the bowel.
Also known as CT colonography or CT colonoscopy, VC uses a very thin tube inserted only into the rectum to inflate the colon with air, and specialized scanning equipment to take an image. The image is transferred to a video monitor, which creates a detailed picture of the inside of the colon. The physician can then look for the same abnormalities that would be seen with conventional colonoscopy.
Both procedures require the same preparation, in which the patient follows a liquid diet and uses laxatives to completely clear the colon prior to the exam.
However, patients are not sedated during VC, and should a polyp or other abnormality be found, it cannot be removed or biopsied; a conventional colonoscopy would still be required. Also, insurance plans do not cover VC.
If you are age 50 or older, be sure to have this potentially life-saving test. Talk to your physician about the best choice for you.

Broadcaster Deirdre O'Shaughnessy and beauty expert, Mary-Jane O'Regan, pictured at the launch of the Breakthrough Cancer Research Women's Little Christmas Afternoon Tea glamour event which will take place on in Fota Island Resort on January 5, 2020. Tickets for this special charity event can be purchased through www.breakthroughcancerresearch.ie
THE 9th Women's Little Christmas Afternoon Tea & Fashion Showcase in aid of Breakthrough Cancer Research promises to be bigger and better than ever.
The event will take place on Sunday, January 5, in the luxurious surroundings of the Fota Island Resort. This year's MC is Deirdre O'Shaughnessy, journalist and broadcaster.
Now in its ninth year, Breakthrough's Women's Little Christmas Afternoon Tea & Fashion Showcase will begin with a refreshing Pink Gin reception on arrival (sponsored by Pernod Ricard), a craft exhibitor showcase, and pampering treatments from the Spa at Fota Island Resort.
Sumptuous Afternoon Tea will follow, during which guests will be entertained with a 'how to' make-up demo from Glamity Jane, renowned beauty expert from HiStyle, and wowed by a head-turning fashion segment hosted by Grace Keane of Silk Peaches and Serenity boutiques in Ballincollig.
Throughout, guests will enjoy music from the Loungeman and attendees will also be in with a chance of winning the event's best dressed lady competition, goody bags and more!
Orla Dolan, Director of Fundraising with Breakthrough Cancer Research, said: "Nollaig na mBan, or Women's Little Christmas, is a fabulous excuse to catch up with the ladies in your life after a hectic Christmas, and Breakthrough's Women's Little Christmas Afternoon Tea is a perfect excuse to have some well-deserved 'Me' time, for a great cause.
"All proceeds from the event go towards developing new treatments for poor prognosis cancers and those which currently respond poorly to conventional therapies."
Breakthrough Cancer Research is leading the way with research into cancers with poor prognosis such as ovarian, pancreatic, lung and oesophageal. From its research centre in Cork, it has already progressed seven treatments from the laboratory to clinical trial.
The organisation works closely with multiple hospitals to ensure its research is responding to the needs of patients with cancers that do not respond to conventional therapies.

Jeff Bezos And The Age Of Amazon
Sarah December 18, 2018 January 14, 2018
Hulu has struck a new licensing agreement with Disney-ABC Tv Group for unique subscription VOD rights that makes the complete libraries of Boy Meets World and Dwelling Improvement out there on a streaming service for the primary time. On August 23, 1999, Blogger was launched by Pyra Labs As one of the earliest dedicated weblog-publishing tools, it's credited for serving to popularize the format. In February 2003, Pyra Labs was acquired by Google beneath undisclosed phrases. The acquisition allowed premium features (for which Pyra had charged) to turn into free. In October 2004, Pyra Labs' co-founder, Evan Williams , left Google. In 2004, Google bought Picasa ; it built-in Picasa and its photograph sharing utility Hiya into Blogger, allowing customers to submit photographs to their blogs.
To start the exercise, select a base word. Students use the prefixes and suffixes playing cards to maneuver around the base phrase to make new words. For example: If using the bottom phrase, CARE, students could make new phrases like caring, cautious, uncaring, and so on. They will also see how two suffixes may be added to the bottom phrase like, carelessness and punctiliously. Students should be cautious when including affixes to base words. Some affixes is not going to make sense when added to the bottom phrase. For instance; discare or carely. It is a good time to talk about nonsense words. If college students are unsure of a phrase, encourage them to look them up in a dictionary to see which affixes may be added to the base phrase. I really like "".
The addition of Boy Meets World" and Dinosaurs" be part of Hulu's reincarnation of ABC's TGIF" lineup from the Nineteen Nineties — with a collection comprising more than 1,200 episodes total. Also premiering on Hulu on Friday are all episodes of the unique Full Home" — revived by Netflix last 12 months as Fuller House" — along with Family Matters," Step By Step," Good Strangers" and Hangin' With Mr. Cooper." Those got here below an agreement with Warner Bros. Domestic Tv Distribution.
And that's how it all started! My first favourite reminiscence of our new dwelling was laying on the berber carpet in the middle of our massive empty front room, taking a look at Bryan and feeling excited to assemble our very first piece of furnishings. I have always loved to learn home magazines and pour my heart into my environment, so having our own haven to work on has been a dream come true. All the pieces you might be about to see on this tour has been over 13 years within the making (and all carried out while additionally including two more boys and two furry associates into the household combine). And what makes us most proud, is that now we have accomplished majority of the work on our residence with our personal two palms. Aside from hiring out help for electrical, plumbing and heating, we have now planted our yard, built a deck, put in a patio, painted our hearts out, up to date loos, put in tile, taken down and re-constructed partitions, laid flooring, swapped out fixtures and DIY'd furniture galore.
So, what's contained in the e-book? 291 pages (out of a promised 556). There are 14 chapters of awesomeness, that includes people featured on this web site previously. This ebook is focused on biophysical methods and how they're used to triage and advance leads. Many of these matters have been coated in depth on this site: thermodynamics , protein-protein interactions , HDX , MST , SPR , WAC , 1D NMR , Protein NMR , and how one can use them in terms of residence time. There are two case studies, one from Pfizer and one from FOB (Good friend of the Weblog) Michelle Arkin Lastly, and you can determine this out, there's a chapter from Martin Scanlon on fragment libraries I will not go into truly reviewing the book; that may be a major battle of interest (I do have a financial interest in it and Don and I have to pay for that indexing!).

Research and development have proven that nitrogen flushed marijuana packaging is not only good for the freshness of foods and coffee—nitrogen packaging marijuana actually preserves THC (Tetrahydroncannabinol), and CBD (Cannabidiol). In the absence of this process, marijuana that is exposed to oxygen and other gases in everyday environments, THC oxidizes into CBN cannabinoid, which lowers the value of the product as well as its potency.
Nitrogen flushing is currently the only known methodology for keeping marijuana rich in THC and CBD by stopping the oxidization process, and that's exactly why all the best-known clinics, laboratories, and dispensaries of marijuana use nitrogen generators to flush-package their product.
Whether it is for medicinal use to ease pain and stimulate the appetite, or for recreational use such as what we currently see in Colorado and Washington, the loss of THC or CBD by exposure lowers its chemical efficacy. Nitrogen flush packaging marijuana is the only method any serious venture should consider when deciding to undertake all the hard work that goes into raising marijuana properly.
If you're are willing to spend tens of thousands of dollars for the best strains, give them the best environment in which to grow, and hire the best people to ensure the best care, it goes without saying that you don't want all the time and money spent on this process to be ruined in that final moment of truth, right before packing your product. Nitrogen generators for marijuana packaging are not just a good idea—they are essential to the entire industry and the quality of the products you're bringing to market.
We offer nitrogen generators for packaging, vacuum oven purging, laboratory instruments, and many more applications. Give us a call or click the contact button to learn more about generating your own nitrogen on site. No more deliveries, high costs of gas, and the hassle of using cylinders.

"This sophomore album from American southern goth rockers Bloody Hammers is something of a bold and curious departure from their last release and the band's self-titled debut album. While the band's previous work seemed to be based in more gothic realms, like black magic, witchcraft and vampirism, this album seems to be more about, of all things… relationships. Now I'm not one to be emo about this sort of thing and the music itself is hardly that in presentation, but I sort of just shrugged my shoulders as I listened to a disc that incorporated such a dreadfully depressing ballad such as "Science Fiction" and their odd "The Source" cover, which also seems to detail a relationship..."

British Blues Legend Robin Trower Announces New Album
Norman van den Wildenberg | January 23, 2019 | Release | No Comments
It's rare to find a '60s legend still on trailblazing form in their eighth decade. The 73-year-old guitarist finds himself in a golden late-bloom of creativity. In recent years, his solo output has been championed by both press and public, with the impact of 2014's 'Something's About To Change', 2016's 'Where You Are Going To' and 2017's 'Time & Emotion'setting up some of his best-attended US dates since he conquered that continent with 'Bridge Of Sighs' in the mid-'70s.
The bluesman's back pages leave no doubt of his towering contribution. Follow the thread back to '50s Southend, where the teenage Trower lived and breathed a vinyl collection that left an indelible mark on him. Making his first mark in R&B hopefuls The Paramounts, he then forged his reputation over a five-album tenure with Procol Harum. His solo career exploded in 1974 with 'Bridge Of Sighs', the gold-selling masterpiece. Suddenly, Trower was a mainstream draw in the States, booming from prime-time radio, taking the stage at stadiums. That wave of popularity carried Trower into a series of celebrated collaborations with Jack Bruce that began with B.L.T. (1981), and even saw him guesting on tracks forBryan Ferry's acclaimed Taxi (1993).
With 'Coming Closer To The Day', his songcraft and soulful performances have never sounded more alive – even on an album whose title track acknowledges that life is short and time precious. "I'm saying that I'm nearer the end than the beginning," he explains. "But that doesn't scare me. Not at all. If I went tomorrow, I'd feel like I'd been blessed with being able to achieve an incredible amount as a musician."
The album was recorded at Studio 91 in Newbury, with engineer Sam Winfield. "'Diving Bell' is probably my favorite track on the album," he says. "'Truth Or Lies', that one was quite hard to pull off. I love the song, but I recorded it once and wasn't happy with it, so I started from scratch again. It's got quite a strong early R&B flavour to it. That song is not really about me. I'm writing from the viewpoint of a guy whose loved one has been messing around. 'Someone Of Great Renown', again, that song isn't about me, but it's maybe someone that I'd like to be."
"'Lonesome Road'," he continues, "that's about me touring and asking how long I can go on with it. That's definitely coming from my heart and head. 'Ghosts' is about things from the past where you didn't do right in your personal life. 'Don't Ever Change' is an out-and-out love song: a very nice, easy vibe, but still quite soulful."
The caliber of the songwriting on 'Coming Closer To The Day' is matched by Trower's performances, with the bandleader handling all instruments except the drums. His basslines are supple and rhythmic, his vocals growl and the lead guitar work only adds to his reputation as an all-time-great soloist.
For Robin Trower, the next great song is always right there at his fingertips. For five decades, the iconic British bluesman has written the same way. The valves glow in his Marshall amplifier. Those fabled hands roam the neck of his Fender Stratocaster. Then the music starts to flow: raw and real, played with fire and skill, untainted by commercial aspirations, accompanied by lyrics that get to the guts of the matter.
