The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) has incurred adverse reactions in India over its strategic implications, but just what is the CPEC all about? In December 2014, the People's Republic of China (PRC) established the Silk Road Fund (SRF) as a fund management company to extend investment and financial support to CPEC projects and to promote industrial cooperation with Pakistan. The SRF is a consortium of leading Chinese banks, including the China Exim Bank and the China Development Bank. It had an initial corpus of $10 billion that was subsequently raised to $40 billion. For CPEC projects, all SRF-financed loans will be insured by the China Export and Credit Insurance Corporation (Sinosure) against non-payment risks while the security of loans is guaranteed by the host state. There is no grant-in-aid component, unlike American handouts to Pakistan in the past, and PRC's financing and implementing agencies will hold proportionate equity in the Pakistani host entity Rs strategic advantage profitably piggybacking on great business.
What projects does the CPEC cover? All 49 CPEC projects would be executed with the financial and logistical participation of the federal and state governments and the private sector of Pakistan on joint venture (JV) basis. CPEC's two main components are developing a new trade and transport route from Kashgar in China to the Gwadar Port in Balochistan and special economic zones along the route, including power and motorway projects. The first-phase projects will receive $45.69 billion in concessionary and commercial loans, for which financial facilitation to PRC companies is being arranged by SRF. These include $33.79 billion for energy projects, $5.9 billion for roads, $3.69 billion for railway network, $1.6 billion for Lahore Mass Transit, $66 million for Gwadar Port and a fibre optic project worth $4 million.Some of these projects have been fast-tracked and many are likely to be commissioned by 2019.
Apart from Karot hydropower project, they include the upgrading of the 1,681 km Peshawar-Lahore-Karachi railway line ($3.70 billion), Thar coal-fired power plants of 1,980 MW ($2.80 billion), development of two Thar coal mining blocks ($2.20 billion), the Gwadar-Nawabshah natural gas pipeline ($2 billion); imported coal-based power plants at Port Qasim for 1,320 MW ($2 billion), a 900 MW solar park in Bahawalpur ($1.30 billion), the Havelian-Islamabad link of the Karakoram Highway ($930 million), a 260 MW wind farm at Jhimpir ($260 million); and the Gwadar International Airport ($230 million).How is PRC financing such gargantuan expenditure? Although it has had its fair share of bad bank loans, distressed stock market and a sagging renminbi, yet $1.22 trillion in US Treasury Bonds (as of July 2016) is no mean amount of a total of $4 trillion investments in the US alone in mid-2015. As of 30 September 2016, the average interest rate on US Treasury Bonds was 4.429 per cent, down from 4.673 per cent a year earlier. Against this, a conservative annual return (interest and return on investment) @ 30-35 per cent per annum makes a positive difference of about $300-350 million/annum to PRC entities for every billion dollar invested over US Treasury Bonds. Included in this is a conservative 10 per cent mark-up in prices of capital equipment (that is normal globally), debt servicing costs (excluding interest) of about 7 per cent and return of investment of about 20-25 per cent, all per annum. For $ 67 billion CPEC funds (Pakistan and Bangladesh), PRC could potentially earn about $20-23 billion per annum with average payback period @ a remarkable 3-5 years.
The Bank of China reported a low prime lending rate of 4.35 per cent as of September 2016 that has not changed in the last year, so the cost of domestic and repatriated capital is low.Just how expensive will SRF finance be for Pakistan? A framework agreement for energy projects under CPEC was recently signed between Sinosure and the water and power ministry of Pakistan to provide sovereign guarantees. Sinosure is charging a fee of 7 per cent for debt servicing added to the project's capital cost. Such an add-on of $63.90 million for debt servicing and financing fees and charges of another $21 million would raise the capital cost of the Port Qasim 660MW power project from $767.90 million to $956.10 million. Interestingly, interest during construction will be at the rate of 33.33 per cent each for the first and second years, 13.33 per cent for the third and 20 per cent for the fourth year. In addition, 27.20 per cent return on equity is guaranteed, post-commissioning. Power is therefore least likely to be affordable, so the substantial upward tariff revision may meet with popular dissent as for motorway tolls.Pakistan's Finance Ministry has already exempted a few motorway projects from customs duties and taxes. Pakistan's Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has, so far, granted exemption on withholding and sales tax to two Chinese firms on import of motor vehicles for CPEC motorway projects. States too are pitching in. The Punjab government has leased 4,500 acres of land to PRC companies for the second phase of the Quaid-e-Azam Solar Park of 900 MW, probably gratis.
Similarly, the Gwadar Port Authority (GPA) has assigned or will be shortly assigning 923 hectares (2300 acres) of tax and cost-exempt land to China Overseas Port Holding Company (COPHC) on a 43-year lease. None of these costs will be borne by the PRC and will add to the cost of CPEC's implementation. This is in addition to the $248 million PRC has already spent on establishing Gwadar Port in 2007, also as loans.SRF has already signed an MoU with China's Three Gorges Corporation and Pakistan's Private Power and Infrastructure Board (PPIB) to develop a number of private hydropower projects like the 720 MW Karot hydropower project. Likewise for Pakistani companies, Sindh Engro Coal Mining Co, which is a joint venture of EngroPowergen Ltd and the Sindh government, is the leaseholder of Thar Block-II coalfields, while its affiliate/subsidiary Thar Power Company will construct a series of mine-mouth power plants with SRF assistance. One such plant will receive $1 billion from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) with 75 per cent financing of the $2.6 billion project, 25 per cent of which will be equity held by the financing ICBC.Which agencies will undertake joint implementation for the PRC? Three Gorges Corporation for hydropower projects, Shanghai Electric (Group) Corporation in partnership with Sino-Sindh Resources that is a subsidiary of Global Mining (China) Ltd, Lucky Electric Power Company, Zonergy Co Ltd, China Construction Company, China State Construction Engineering Company, China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, Syno Hydro Company, etc., all PRC-owned companies, private and public, are the principal contractors.
Sub-contractors would presumably be Pakistani which is where local corruption will hugely creep in, as in India, and appreciably reduce the value of the loans. Chinese supervisors would also have to be protected against local goons for which the Pakistani army is reported to be raising a division to protect CPEC assets, expenses of which will be on Pakistan's exchequer. How does PRC benefit from CPEC-like investments? At a very modest 0.25 per cent annual accretion to PRC's GDP in 2016 of $10.87 trillion owing to CPEC and similar non-West transnational investment may potentially add at least another $300-400 billion per annum to PRC's GDP by 2020. In addition, equipment and building supplies manufacturers, now in distress, would not only generate new jobs but also witness appreciable upsurge in their share values and consequently earnings per share for investors, many of them in distress now. Is that why PRC's SRF is being called the new East India Company?What is the flip side of CPEC-like PRC investments? For one, high rates of return on investment are proportionate to the gravest risks involved that all recipients would certainly face in varying measure.
The track record of mega corruption in sub-contracting, poor implementation and operation plagues nearly all of PRC's client countries. As delays mount, so will commitment charges on loans and accumulated rate of return. Similarly, political compulsions in accepting high-tariff tolls for every km of new motorways, willingness to substantially raise power, water and telecom tariffs in a historical subsidy regime, land acquisition hurdles, relief and rehabilitation of the displaced, high maintenance costs (owing to less than average material used and terrain), etc., could add manifold to the Chinese debt of a recipient country.

Dominic Di Tommaso In Bruges
Exploring the architecture of a medieval city from another point of view.
Inspired by the Triënnale Brugge 2018 theme of 'Liquid City', Australian freerunner Dominic Di Tommaso took part in a special project. "What Tourists Don't See" showcases the striking beauty of the medieval city of Bruges from a fresh perspective. Through a short film and series of photographs, the team wrote a love letter to this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Running across gabled roofs, jumping from one architectural gem to another, Di Tommaso takes the viewer on an unforgettable adventure. It's a sight the millions of tourists who flock to the city every year don't get to see.
While introducing some picture-perfect city views, the world-class freerunner establishes an almost intimate relationship with the medieval architecture he explores. Pushing his own limits, never stopping, always going one jump farther. A perfect way to honor the theme of the Bruges Triennale, as Liquid City promotes positive urban and social change. Created in a collaboration with the city of Bruges, the project took two years to complete. Filming took three days, but involved unsurprisingly complex procedures. Apart from Dominic Di Tommaso, the team also included dozens of crew and extras, a stunt coordinator, three cameras, and two drones. The film covers a distance of 23 km and 16 locations, reaching a height of 61 m with the Belfry bell tower. Photographs© Red Bull.

IMMIGRATION AGGRAVATION
Why John McCain endorsed Donald Trump, the man who mocked his military service
John McCain is being squeezed between the right and the left.
Image: Reuters/Valentyn Ogirenko

Donald Trump has singlehandedly turned the reliably burning-red Republican state of Arizona into a contested presidential battleground.
By staking his campaign on anti-immigrant rhetoric, Trump has encouraged xenophobes on the right to demand Republicans embrace their race-tinged nationalism. Simultaneously, this is riling up their Democratic opponents—particularly Latino voters, who make up 22% of Arizona's electorate.
This is the dilemma Trump has forced on Republicans. And no one embodies this more than Arizona Senator John McCain, who faces a primary vote today.
Immigration is a lightning rod issue in Arizona, where more than three-tenths of the population is Latino, and around 14% foreign-born. And on that issue, the five-term US senator and Vietnam War hero is known as a moderate Republican.
In 2013, McCain was one of the "gang of eight," a bipartisan band of senators promoting comprehensive immigration reform, which included a "path to citizenship"—a set of requirements for unauthorized immigrants to gain citizenship. He is known for denouncing Joe Arpaio, the Arizona sheriff infamous for his anti-immigrant patrols and general zeal for deportation.
In a normal presidential election year, McCain's seat would almost certainly be safe, given Arizona's staunchly Republican voting record: In 2012, Mitt Romney won the state by nine percentage points. One recent poll shows Hillary Clinton with a one percentage point lead over Donald Trump.
This year is anything but normal.
McCain's more tolerant stance on immigration doesn't sit well with Trump supporters—which is why they're backing Kelli Ward, a Tea Partying former state senator, in the Republican primary. Ward attacks her rival as "inviting the world" to enter the US, arguing that the "porous border" Arizona shares with Mexico "is directly endangering Arizona children and families."
Though McCain will likely beat Ward, he has a much bigger problem on the horizon: His Democratic opponent, Ann Kirkpatrick, in the race to keep his seat that has become unexpectedly close. McCain currently leads by about eight percentage points; in 2010, he won reelection by 24.2 points.
McCain needs Ward's supporters to beat Kirkpatrick. However, Arizona's relatively late primaries give McCain only nine weeks to convert them to his cause. That's probably why McCain has vaguely but vocally supported Trump—even though the reality TV star denied McCain was a war hero, mocked his time in a Vietnam prison camp, and, later, poured scorn on the parents of a Muslim soldier who died in battle.
Playing nice with Trump might neutralize McCain's primary opponent, but it's also letting Kirkpatrick appeal to moderate voters and her own base by tying McCain to Trump.
The anti-Trump vitriol is spurring grassroots Latino activists to register new voters—who will almost certainly back Kirkpatrick, along with Hillary Clinton. McCain's strategy also risks turning off traditional Republicans who revile Trump. Some conservative Arizonans are mulling sitting out this election rather than voting for Trump, one Republican from Scottsdale recently told the Washington Post.
The Arizona senator, who just eight years ago led his party as the presidential nominee, isn't the only Republican torn between alienating either Trump's anti-immigrant rabble or the old-school GOP. But he could be the most prominent casualty in the battle over the Republican party that Trump appears to be winning.

RBI to work towards more financial inclusion
2 min read . Updated: 17 Jul 2009, 10:18 PM IST Anup Roy
RBIFinancial inclusionSHGsRural bankingInstitutional creditEconomy and PoliticsPolicy Tracker
Mumbai: Reserve Bank of India's (RBI's) deputy governor K.C. Chakrabarty on Friday said the country has failed to achieve financial inclusion despite enabling an environment to include the underprivileged.
Speaking at his first public appearance as a central banker at a financial services summit in Mumbai, ahead of the 28 July quarterly review of RBI's monetary policy, Chakrabarty also said the central bank would ensure a benign and stable interest rate regime to safeguard the common man's interest and ensure adequate liquidity in the system.
In the face of high competition in industry, banks, particularly private sector lenders, will have to lower lending rates in the period ahead, he said.
Chakrabarty also said credit outflow is likely to pick up in the coming quarters as there are signs of recovery in the economy, adding that the central bank would ensure adequate liquidity.
As part of the ongoing efforts to promote financial inclusion, RBI plans to introduce new guidelines on the business correspondent (BC) model in the next one month, he said. "(At present), the BC model is too restrictive. RBI is examining the BC model to make it more operative. We expect to come out with our guidelines in the next one month," Chakrabarty said.
Business correspondents are intermediaries who carry out banking functions in villages or areas where it is not possible to open a branch.
Former RBI governor and chairman of a committee on financial inclusion C. Rangarajan agreed that it is not possible for banks to open branches in every village, but that such problems could be addressed through BCs. "The solution of financial inclusion lies in finding an intermediary. BC is a good model," Rangarajan told the summit. According to him the repayment ethics of the self-help groups is very high and that the model should be replicated across the country.
Chakrabarty, former chairman of India's second largest public sector lender, Punjab National Bank, was critical of banking practices relating to opening no-frills accounts for the poor. He pointed out that only 40% of the population has checking accounts, 10% has some kind of life insurance coverage, 0.6% has non-life insurance, credit cards are concentrated among 2% of the population, debit cards are in the purses of 13% of the population. "This goes on showing the amount of business opportunity out there," said Chakrabarty, noting that only 5.2% of the 650,000 villages nationwide had a bank branch.
"Across the globe, financial institutions are realizing that poor are bankable assets. Yet, we fail to realize that."
According to a study by the Skoch Foundation, the organizer of the seminar, only 11.1% of 25.1 million no-frill accounts are operational, and that the costs borne by the BCs are not sustainable.
"An analysis of costs based on what the banks are actually paying to vendors (BCs) reveals that the gap at the end of two years is Rs26.25 per account," the study, headed by Skoch president Sameer Kochhar, found. While better technology was the way out, he said the appropriate technology "for massive financial inclusion has not evolved yet".

Q: redis-cli from docker-compose redis container doesn't catch any keys set up through Laravel So when I enter the redis container with: docker-compose exec redis bash, I then type: redis-cli to start redis-cli. Then, when I try to get the key (visits) I set up through Laravel app with: GET visits, it shows nil.
This is how I set up the key 'visits':
Route::get('/', function () {
    $visits = Redis::incr('visits');
    return $visits;
});

However, redis works fine in Laravel.
Here's my .env:
BROADCAST_DRIVER=log
CACHE_DRIVER=redis
QUEUE_CONNECTION=database
SESSION_DRIVER=redis
SESSION_LIFETIME=120

REDIS_URL=redis
REDIS_HOST=redis #172.17.0.1
REDIS_PASSWORD=null
REDIS_PORT=6379
REDIS_CLIENT=phpredis
REDIS_CACHE_DB=0

A: Okay, I got it. It was persisted like this when I tried all keys:
127.0.0.1:6379> keys *
1) "laravel_database_laravel_cache:aEznTaRttAEmGlOd90xQX1jtvbkVEqW7bYGFhzCR"
2) "laravel_database_visits"

It's because Laravel adds a prefix from database config file.

The cerebellum, a canonically sensorimotor structure, is being increasingly appreciated for its relationship to cognitive brain areas and tasks. In particular, cerebellar modulation has been shown to influence hippocampal functioning in an epileptic brain. This finding has prompted my exploration of that relationship in a healthy brain, addressing such questions as which hippocampal populations respond to cerebellar activity, how does cerebellar modulation alter hippocampal neuronal dynamics, and what are the behavioral consequences of this activity. I utilize transgenic mice, optogenetics, calcium imaging, immunoprocessing, and a variety of behavioral tests to answer these questions.

Q: How to keep the state of a FormGroup in Angular I have a FormGroup set up like so:
const forms = new FormGroup( {
    name: new FormControl(''),
    address: new FormControl(''),
});

Lets say I want to only save some part of the form, but instead of resetting the entire form to the database values, I want to direct the user back to their unfinished changes. How can I save the 'state' of this FormGroup, so that I can set all the formControls back to it at a later time?
So far, I have just been finding success doing it individually which is a pain:
const unsavedName = this.forms.controls.name.value;
//and then when I want to reset state:
this.forms.controls.name.setValue(unsavedName);

Which works great for just one value, but I would like a way to grab all the values in the FormGroup.
Thanks

A: You should use
const formValues = {...this.form.value};

This will give you an object that contains all values in your form.
and you can use this.form.setValue(formValues) to set the values again.
To set few values you can use this.form.patchValue({ name: 'name'})

A: Use patchvalues function
updateProfile() {
  this.profileForm.patchValue({
    firstName: 'Nancy',
    address: {
      street: '123 Drew Street'
    }
  });
}

A Terrible Thing To Waste
Hearing People's Thoughts
Original Prompt #1: "You have the ability to read minds at will, but choose to never let anyone know about it. One night, you hear someone think 'If anyone out there can read my mind, PLEASE HELP!'"
Original Prompt #2: "You sit on a bus, thinking to yourself 'Wouldn't it be amazing to hear people's thoughts?'. A voice replies, 'It is'"
Zoey stood outside what used to be the Firewater Nightclub. Now it was just a pile of rubble and ash with police tape surrounding the premise. Most people just walked by no giving Zoey or the building any notice, but she could hear whispers filling her head which was a normal thing for her.
Reading minds is an ability that many people would freak out about, but she had lived with this ability for over twenty three years now. There were still moments where other people's thoughts overpowered her and it felt like people were screaming in her ears, but now Zoey mostly had it under control.
Well there was one girl. A girl Zoey had ran into several times who's name was Allison.
"I can't believe this place burned down," Allison said.
Zoey looked over at her.
Immediately she was hit with this wave of sadness mixed with a feeling of lost and nostalgia.
Zoey shook her head.
"Yeah it's crazy. Our usual watering hole burned to the ground," She said placing her hands in her pockets.
They both stood there standing in silence looking over the burned ruins of the old nightclub. It had been a place where Zoey had gone after work many times, but recently she had been avoiding it. She'd been avoiding this whole area.
"So I know that we don't really know each other that well," Allison started. "I mean we've hung out like four times it a year's time, but I feel like you've been avoiding me."
Zoey stiffened.
Zoey was the mind reader, but sometimes she swore that Allison could read her like an open book.
"I…well…I…" Zoey started as she stumbled over her words.
"It's just that I was under the impression that we could be friends, you know? Like we had some kind of connection," Allison turned towards Zoey. "Was I crazy? Am I just imagining it?"
"No! No!" Zoey said a little too loud.
"Then what is it? Do I intimidate you or something? Am I too pushy?" Allison asked.
"I…I don't… it's not…" Zoey was tongue-tied as Allison just looked at her waiting for Zoey to spit out her words.
"You make me nervous," Zoey blurted out.
There was a cloud of panic surrounding her mixing with Allison's emotions of concern and sadness.
"Nervous? Why?"
"I don't really know you but you want to hang out with me and people don't usually do that," Zoey said. "I'm kind of a loner. I don't do the whole party scene and you just seem so…so…"
"I seem so what?"
"I don't know. Put together I guess. You seem so sweet and nice and that's not me."
There was a brief moment of silence before Allison spoke.
"You don't think you're nice? You remember what happened here like a year and a half ago, right? You rescued me from a terrible boyfriend when I was stuck in the bathroom crying my eyes out. It was almost like you could hear my cry from help and you came charging in to save me," Allison said.
"Yeah well…anyone would do that," Zoey said.
"No they wouldn't. Only people like you would," Allison said. "Good people."
"Yeah sure," Zoey said looking down at her feet.
"Look, if you don't want to be friends or hang out or whatever, we don't have to. I don't want to force anything on you," Allison said.
"No, it's not that…it's just complicated," Zoey said.
I can't tell her right? How crazy would I sound? Reading minds? She'd freak. Plus then Allison would know. Like know-know. Other people can't know.
"Complicated how?"
"I don't know if I can explain it," Zoey admitted.
"Try me," Allison folded her arms.
"Do we have to do this in the middle of the sidewalk?" Zoey asked.
"I guess not," Allison said.
"There's a quaint, little bakery not too far from here. They have really good, freshly baked bread.
Allison's stumbled growled.
"I am pretty hungry," She admitted. "Fine, let's go get some bread."
They made their way a few blocks over to the local bakery. Inside it smelt amazing. All the scents of baking bread and butter and so many awesome aromas all coming together.
"You're right. This place is awesome," Allison said taking a seat.
She had two large, blueberry muffins and some tea. Zoey got a small loaf of cinnamon bread and a black coffee.
Zoey could feel the wave of happiness overcome Allison as she bit into her blueberry muffin.
"This is amazing! How did I not know about this place?" She asked.
"It's kind of off the radar, I guess," Zoey said.
"Ok now this complicated thing that's going on between me and you. What's that all about?" Allison asked before taking another bite of muffin.
I can't believe that I'm actually going to do this. This is stupid right? I shouldn't do this. But this was Allison. For some reason I fully trust her. It's my stupid crush and my stupid emotions overcoming me. Argh. I don't know what to do.
"Ok, just promise you won't freak out," Zoey said.
"Ok I promise," Allison nodded.
"I…I…" Zoey started.
Her mind was racing.
Just say it. Just say that you read minds. That you feel Allison's feelings. That you can read her thought. That you can read everyone's thoughts. That you know the baker is thinking about a stack of bills piling up in the back. That the other couple in the bakery are in totally different places. She thinks they are going to get married and he's trying to figure out a way to break up with her and still leave things on good terms. Just say it.
Allison picked up on Zoey's hesitation and reached out a hand and placed it on Zoey's.
"I have a crush on you," Zoey blurted.
In that moment the whole bakery seemed to fall silent. Allison slowly retracted her hand and placed them on the table. Zoey's expression was one of pure terror and embarrassment. She could feel her face get red.
They both sat there for a split second as the bakery swelled with noise once again.
Oh crap. What did I do?
"I didn't realize that you were…uh…" Allison started.
"Just don't. Let's just not talk," Zoey said hanging her head.
"Hey it's not a big deal," Allison said. "I didn't know you were a Lesbian, that's all. I'm not… I don't…"
"You're straight. Yeah I know," Zoey said.
"But we can still be friends. Just because I'm not gay doesn't mean we can't hang out," Allison said.
"Won't it be awkward for you?" Zoey asked.
"Maybe a little, but I'm sure I'll get over it. Plus the fact that you didn't want to hang out with me because you have a crush on me is not as bad as it could have been. You could have said that you were a serial killer or an alien or something," Allison laughed.
"Yeah definitely not an alien," Zoey popped her head up and smiled.
"And serial killer?" Allison asked.
Zoey shrugged.
"I promise not to wear your skin as a suit," Zoey said.
"Why not? My skin is great," Allison laughed looking at her hands and forearms.
Both girls laughed.
The turn around seemed to happen out of nowhere, but that's just how both Allison and Zoey are. Humor is their coping mechanism and it was either that or be awkward. Both girls chose laughter and jokes.
Zoey laughed along still recovering from embarrasement, but Allison helped it go by quickly.
"I'm going to hit the restroom before we leave," Allison said picking up her bag.
"Ok, I'm going to get another coffee for the road."
Allison nodded and headed off to the restroom in the corner.
Once Allison slipped away. Zoey closed her eyes. She imagined a large, heavy door in front of her. Then she pushed the door open slowly. The whispers of others around her came rushing in. Full blown stream of consciousnesses filling her mind. Both thoughts and emotions. It was a little abrupt, but Zoey waded through those thoughts and emotions. She heard one stronger than all the rest. That was Allison's.
Wow. Weird. I've never had a girl admit that to me. That's actually kind of flattering.
Zoey smiled.
I'm glad she got that off her chest. It must have been really hard for her to tell me.
It was like she overheard a secret conversation and just blurted out her thoughts at the worst time revealing herself. Or sending that text message that you definitely shouldn't have sent. Or when you talk about someone and they appear behind you at just the wrong moment. Zoey had opened that door and stepped on through.
What? Zoey?
Zoey sat there petrified. She had blown it. She had opened the bag.
She slammed the door in her mind and opened her eyes.
"Oh crap. Oh crap!"
She ran out the door knocking the rest of her coffee on the floor.
"I'm so sorry," Zoey said as she ran by the counter.
However she didn't stop running. She just picked up her stuff and bolted. Panic overwhelmed her and there was nothing else to do.
Zoey had spoken to Allison telepathically. It was over. Allison knew. She knew.
As she ran down the street, Zoey picked up everyone's thoughts and conversations once again. It was like she was drowning in other people's thoughts. Their private worlds were invading her own. They were like a crowd of people screaming at her. She couldn't hear anything else. It was just everyone's thoughts and the blood pumping in her ears.
After Zoey ran a dozen or so city blocks, she was winded. She wasn't an athlete and wasn't used to running. Plus her mind hurt. A strange sensation that is hard to explain, but she was mentally drained.
What had I done? I messed up bad. What can I do now?
These words barely surfaced above everyone else's words.
Zoey pulled out her phone and noticed she had five missed calls. All from Allison.
I messed up. I messed up bad. I'm going to have to leave the city right? Move states. Move countries. If she tells anyone I'm toast. I'm going to end up in some government lab where they'll kill me and dissect my brain. Or torture me until I spy on the Russians.
Through this ramblings of words and crazy ideas, she once again picked up on strong feelings of concern and confusion.
Zoey are you there?
Zoey turned around but there was nobody there. She was all alone standing on a city corner. But the words were still so clear. Allison's thoughts were pushing through.
Zoey concentrated.
I'm here.
Wow. So you can actually do this? I wasn't making this up. You can speak to me through your brain?
Yes. I can hear your thoughts and I can send thoughts to you.
I don't know what to say. I was just there washing my hands in the sink and your voice comes floating into my head. And then I hear some kind of noise outside and you're gone. You spilt your coffee all over the floor.
I know. And I apologized to the bakery lady. I had to get out of there. You weren't supposed to know that. This was my secret.
Yeah that's a pretty big secret. Reading thoughts and all.
Please, you can't tell anyone, ok? No one else can know. I'll be shipped off to some government facility never to be seen again. Please don't say anything. I'll never bother you again. You'll never have to see me again.
But what if I want to?
What if I want to see you again.
You really want to see me after all of this? After I read your thoughts?
Look Zoey. You're a strange girl and it's going to take some time to process this, but honestly, I think it's pretty cool. Not that you read my thoughts. That's kind of creepy, but that you have this ability. And now that I think of it, it makes sense. You didn't figuratively read my mind in that nightclub, you literally read it. And when I saw you on the bus. I thought I heard something in my brain, you know? Now I know I did. I heard you.
Yeah I'm really sorry about that too. I don't really know a lot about this whole thing. I can't ask anyone, because you know. Sometimes my mind wanders. And I was worried you were going to freak out about the whole having a crush on you thing.
Well both things surprise me, but I think mind reader takes the cake. How about you give me a little time to process all of this, alright? And then I'll send you a text message. No more mind reading, ok? At least not my mind.
Alright. I promise. I'll leave your mind alone.
Excellent. See you soon, Zoey.
Yeah, sure. See you soon, Allison.
Then the door fully shut cutting off communication between the two. The whispers from all over the city fell silent. It was just Zoey and her thoughts.
What's going to happen next?
Zoey placed her head in her hands and began her walk back to her apartment.

The Surgical Outpatient Clinic treats patients from various surgical fields, based on a referral. Annually, there are approximately 14,000 visits to the outpatient clinic for gastrointestinal surgery, urology, and plastic surgery. Emergency patients are usually admitted for examinations and treatment within one to two weeks and non-emergency patients within no more than three months.
Some of the patients undergo special examinations before the appointment or during it. Some patients have a therapeutic procedure performed during their visit to the outpatient clinic. The patient can be seen by a surgeon, expert nurse, or both together. In addition, it is possible to book an appointment for an anaesthesiologist and a urotherapist/sexual health counsellor at the outpatient clinic.
The treatment is negotiated, planned and implemented in co-operation with the patient. Based on the referral information, a small minority of patients are transferred directly to the surgical waiting list.
Follow-up for the treatment is arranged either by scheduling an appointment or a telephone consultation. Telephone consultation is an important means of complementing, and sometimes even substituting, outpatient care.
Surgeons from other units also operate in the outpatient clinic facilities: paediatric surgeons, vascular surgeons, neurosurgeons, and orthopaedists.
Weekdays 8.30 a.m.–10 a.m., 1 p.m.–2 p.m.

SpeedZone NJ Owner - Mike Iles
Mike loves racing. Doesn't matter if it's real cars like Midget racers or 124 scale slot cars, Mike will be there. In March of 2009 Mike pulled off a huge upset at the Dunkin Donuts Center in Providence, RI. by claiming the 20-lap TQ Midget feature race. Mike was the defending Modified champion at the dirt 5/8th-mile at the Bridgeport Speedway. Mike made history with the win at the Dunkin Donuts Center as it was the first race of its type held in Rhode Island in 50 years. "It is very cool to win in Rhode Island since the state hasn't had a race in so long," Iles said. "It is a real honor."
Mike is also the Owner of Active Environmental Technologies Inc. Helping keep the world clean and free of pollutants.

Selling a condo, or any property, comes with a lot of doubts. We've taken the time to answer some of the most common questions we get asked.
Is There Any Warranty on my Condo?
Yes, There is warranty on your condo.
The Ontario New Home Warranty Program (ONHWP) provides protection for condominium buyers of newly constructed residential units. However, ONHWP does not apply currently to properties, which are renovated or built on existing foundations. There are two ways in which the ONHWP provides protection.
It guarantees the buyer that any deposit or down payment made by the purchaser of a new condominium unit up to a maximum of $20,000 will be returned if the developer is unable to complete the transaction.
It warranties construction of the units from the date of occupancy, and the common elements from the date of registration, for one year against most defects for two years for the mechanical and electrical systems the building envelope and water penetration and for seven years against major structural defects.
How much is my property worth? This is a common question REALTORS® hear every day and it's not always an easy answer. A better question to ask is "How do REALTORS determine the price of a property?" The most common way our REALTORS® determine the price of a Toronto Condo is by completing a Comparable Market Analysis, or CMA for short. Our REALTORS® look at all the comparable properties that sold in the past 180 days to get an idea of what homes are going for in your area. We then take into consideration certain features that your property may have that others may not, or vice versa. For example, if your condo unit is on a higher floor, has top of the line features, or a killer view!
Of course, it's not always that simple. Choosing the right price can be a delicate situation. Price your condo too high and your property could be sitting on the market for a long time and you may end up getting a lot less than what it's worth. Price your condo too low and you may not get what your property is worth, or cause a bidding war frenzy.
Rod Limoochi will help you list your property at just the right asking price that will obtain the highest price possible in today's Toronto market.
If selling a house, buyers often fall in line with the 'school year'. Listing in the Spring with a Summer closing would be considered 'traditional'.
People are coming to Toronto and the GTA all the time. So, having a listing conversation with your iDEALtoronto professional, will ensure you have discussed pros & cons of listing at anytime of the year.
Should I Buy or Sell My Property First?
To prepare for buying, go and visit some potential "top choice" options. Depending on the strength of the buyer market vs seller market, you may find the two transactions work out with perfect timing.
Your iDEALtoronto agent will best help you through the always changing market place.
How Long Will Selling My Home Take?
This question cannot be answered with 100% accuracy, however, your agent will be able to do an assessment of selling time frames in your building or neighbourhood. If you property is superior to comparables, it may sell faster. Plan to have the property listed on MLS for a minimum of 2 months and longer if you are advised the property may take longer to attract certain buyers.
What Should I do to get My Home Ready for Sale?
Most people will want to declutter their homes but the next phase for preparing a home for sale is staging. This can be full staging with furnishings, wall decor, scent and more or after a staging consultation. You are provided with suggestions for furniture placement, and self-staging for general appeal.
There are costs to having a staged property but often the costs will create a faster sale and better sale price.
In general, you want to ensure anything broken, creaking, dirty or in need of paint, is taken care of. Especially before photos are taken and showings begin.

Q: What is the risk of not upgrading WebdriverIO Version 4 to 5 or beyond? We are using webdriverIO version 4 in a quite a few frameworks where I work. While undertaking the review of one of the frameworks, the option of upgrading to version 5 was recommended. However, the framework is not the most straightforward and there will be a lot of manual fixes needed to commands in many places and the time needed for it is just not known.
Hence the question, what is the risk if we don't upgrade webdriverIO at all? Any dependencies stopping successful builds or browser version incompatibilities affecting test execution? And how soon are these likely to be realised.
Any pointers that can enable this review will be great help.

A: One of the major risks of not updating over the long-term is Node version support dropping. As new versions of Node are released, you'll likely want to upgrade to the latest. However, since older versions of WebdriverIO won't be tested on these new Node versions, there may be incompatibilities between the two.
Apart from that, other drawbacks include:

*

*Missing out on important new features. For example, WebdriverIO v6 includes 'waits' by default now, so you no longer have to include so many "waitFor" commands, and your tests will be less brittle.

*Security Updates via dependencies. While not as important, considering tests aren't normally public facing, it's still nice to have the latest features available.

*Unable to make feature requests. There's a very low chance that you'd be able to get any new features added to old versions of WDIO, especially v4. This means you'd have to do it all yourself.

*Less likely to get help. If something breaks or you're in need of outside help, being on an older version will hinder any help others can provide as they'll be much less experienced with it.

I've upgraded many test suites from 4 -> 5 and while it wasn't the easiest transition, it was also very doable. Unless you have something very complicated going on, I'd put the upgrade at a week tops. It took me about a work day or two to update mine, but it wasn't the most complex code (on purpose).

Q: mysql select multiple rows using GROUP CONCAT and JOIN here's a problem I've been struggling with.
I need to pull out all the posts from a spesific blog ID. In addition I need to pull out all the tags that belongs to each post.
The problem is that when a post have no tags the query doens't return it. How can I get an empty result for the tags cell instead of not returing the row?
I have the following tabels
posts:
ID  title
74  HELLO
75  HELLO2
76  HELLO3

tags_relation:
ID|post_id|tag_id
57  74       3
56  74       61
58  75       62
59  75       63

tags:
ID  tag
3   Love
61  Sometag
62  Sometag1
63  Sometag2
64  Sometag3
65  Sometag4

And here's my query:
SELECT post . * ,
   user.username,
   user.picture,
   GROUP_CONCAT(tag.tag SEPARATOR ',') AS tags
FROM `posts` AS post
INNER JOIN `users` AS USER ON USER.blog_id = post.blog_id
INNER JOIN `tags_relation` AS tags_relation
INNER JOIN `tags` AS tag ON tag.ID = tags_relation.tag_id
WHERE post.blog_id =1
  AND post.status = 'publish'
  AND post.ID = tags_relation.post_id
GROUP BY post.ID
ORDER BY post.timestamp DESC LIMIT 0,10;

A: Try this:
SELECT p.* ,
   u.username,
   u.picture,
   GROUP_CONCAT(t.tag SEPARATOR ',') AS tags
FROM `posts` AS p
INNER JOIN `users` AS u ON u.blog_id = p.blog_id
LEFT JOIN `tags_relation` AS tr ON p.ID = tr.post_id
LEFT JOIN `tags` AS t ON t.ID = tr.tag_id
WHERE p.blog_id =1
  AND p.status = 'publish'
GROUP BY p.ID

On a rather dreary and wet day, two dozen Blue Badge Tourist Guides met in the foyer of the National Theatre for a "behind the scenes" tour. We were split in two groups, all dressed in fetching high viz jackets. Even before we set off our little band was buzzing with excitement, as we were promised a goody bag full of information leaflets on our way out.
Our group was led by the lovely Chris, who had an incredible knowledge of every play ever performed in the National Theatre. He did find a match in our own Pepe Martinez, who seems to have seen every performance since the 1980's. We started off in the Lyttelton theatre, currently showing Man and Superman which had just opened to five star reviews. Chris very bravely asked for questions and even when we explained the danger of this request to Blue Badge Tourist Guides, his guiding was always a dialogue, never a lecture, and full off interesting titbits.
I had never quite realized that both the Lyttelton and the Olivier theatre show at least two shows a week in repertoire, so that sets needs to be moved regularly. Hence the enormous area behind the Lyttelton stage and the ingenious pulley systems to hoist unneeded scenery out of harm's way. We continued past the rehearsal studio and the many workshops hidden within the bowels of this building.

The National Theatre is very unusual in having in-house prop and set building. Some of the stage magic may have been spoilt forever, when some beautifully carved wooden angels turned out to be nothing more than moulded foam with a nice paint job. On the other hand, nobody was allowed into the weapons workshop, where all the swords and guns are real and health and safety does not allow visitors. (The guns are made safe, obviously).
We also saw the famous Olivier 'drum', an enormous revolving round stage that wasn't used to its full potential for many years. As it was the first in the world, nobody knew how it worked! The Olivier theatre is the largest at the National Theatre and was based on the amphitheatre in Epidaurus. Laurence Olivier himself only stepped onto the stage once: to welcome the audience at the opening of the building. The purple seats are in his honour though, it was his favourite colour.
* The Cottesloe theatre has been renamed the Dorfman Theatre.
* The temporary wooden red building on the Southbank is no longer called "the Shed"; that name was on loan for only a year. The building is used for experimental performances and for conferences/workshops.
* A new walkway has opened inside the National Theatre. It is freely accessible and shows some of the workshops behind the scenes. You are allowed to take visitors in, although there is a maximum of 60 people allowed at any time. Entrance on the first floor at the Dorfman entrance.

It has been more than 20 years now, since I came to London to join the famous Blue Badge Tourist Guide training. After dipping my toes in a few different careers, I am now where I was meant to be: showing visitors the best city in the world!

Telephone Interpreting Commonly Asked Questions
access2interpreters
Whether you need to communicate with a patient or client, train a bilingual staff member, or negotiate a business deal with an overseas partner, A2I can help break the language barrier with professional and cost-effective interpretation and translation services.
Many questions arise in the interpretation industry regarding telephone interpreting. The following questions are beneficial for interpreters, language companies, and service providers who wish to learn more about telephone interpreting, as well as its potential benefits and limitations.
What is telephone interpreting?
Telephone interpreting is a service that connects human interpreters via telephone to individuals who wish to speak to each other but do not share a common language. Most often, telephone interpreting is performed in the consecutive mode. This means that the interpreter listens to each utterance first and then proceeds to render it into the other language, as opposed to speaking and listening simultaneously.
Who performs telephone interpretation services?
Access 2 Interpreters offers both Scheduled and Instantaneous Telephone Interpretation Services. A2I provides Telephone Interpretation Services in over 180 languages and Translation Services in over 50 languages nationwide.
When is telephone interpreting preferable to face-to-face interpreting?
Telephone interpreting is preferable to face-to-face interpreting in the following situations:
When both parties are already communicating via telephone. Face-to-face interpreting is not a practical option when the primary interaction is taking place via telephone, so telephone interpreting is advisable in these cases.
When trained interpreters are not available in person. When it comes to choosing among the patient's family member, friend, an untrained bilingual staff member, or a telephone interpreting service, it is usually preferable to choose the interpreting service
Access 2 Interpreters provides services to private and public-sector clients throughout Ohio and across the U.S. We are proud to specialize in telephone interpretation!

And even worse that assigning myself to that negative outlook, I've held on to it for dear life. Like a sense of belonging, something I can claim for definite to be true for me.
I've replayed it over in my head, that that would just be how my life turned out. No ifs or buts, and certainly not something that I could do about it. I didn't have any power.
But then, I woke up. Granted, it's took me 25 years, so this definitely didn't happen overnight.
I realised that I can be exactly who I want. And the best part is that that could change everyday if I wanted it to, too.
I can travel. I can meet new people. I can be ever-evolving.
I can live. In every sense of the word.
And yes, maybe there are some traits we are born with. But we can break free from them, with enough willpower. We don't have to be the person who has a story.
We can be our wonderful, magical, happy, sometimes lonely, confused, sad selves.
Every day is a new opportunity to show our best, most authentic us to the world. So let's do it, and see what life says back. YOU are in control, promise.
WHAT'S IN MY WELLBEING TOOLKIT?
I'm categorically only a morning person on Christmas Day. I know that's a popular phrase on t-shirts around the end of the year, but for me, it's always been true. This girl just loves her sleep, and bed!
I do this every morning and when I wake up, I'm so thankful for past me! I really don't have the energy or patience to be faffing around cutting up a bread loaf when I've just got out of bed (first world problems, eh) so I throw everything, including snacks, obviously, in a tote bag ready on the worktop for me to grab when I'm ready.
I've never been a massive alarm snoozer anyway, but I remember reading a few years ago that it's so much harder for your body to wake up if you fall back asleep for a few minutes, so now I never, ever do it. Once I'm awake, my body tends to energise quite naturally for the day, so I use that snooze time for something else instead… Leading on to my next point!
I keep both my makeup and skincare routine super simple on a morning, the less products the better! For skincare I just usually cleanse, then let a face oil sink in while I brush my teeth. Once that's out the way, I apply concealer, bronzer, blusher, and a bit of mascara (maybe eyeshadow too) and all that takes me about 6 or 7 minutes, max. It's enough to make me look more awake than I feel, and I know I'm not going to be spending extra time making sure my eyeliner looks passable or if I have the right lipstick on. Just throw a lipbalm in your bag and you can do it on your commute I say!
Of course that's got to be top of the list hasn't it? We had the most magical day and I can't wait to share it with you all soon here on the blog, stay tuned for wedding week coming in September when we get our photos back!
Me and my mum recently took my grandma to see Mamma Mia 2 in the cinemas, and it was so amazing! I smiled the whole way through the film, and we loved it that much we might be going again this week for round two.
I've mentioned a few times that I've started re-reading the good ol' HP a few weeks ago, and I'm on book 5 already! I've been flying threw them and I'm loving being immersed in the land of Hogwarts! They are providing to be a great escape every evening.
I've always been a massive Yoga With Adriene fan, and they are usually my go-to video's for a yoga practice. However this past week or so I've been doing her meditations which are usually about 10 minutes long, and I'm obsessed. I really felt like I needed a bit of a change up of my meditation practice and this has definitely delivered.
Unfortunately, now that the weather isn't as beautifully sunny and gloriously hot anymore, it does mean I can make the most out of having my baths again. I've been using my Aromatherapy Associates bath oils and staying in the tub for prolonged periods and it's blissful.
I know I said a few months ago I was totally over avocado, but I'm brave enough to admit when I've made a mistake. I wanted something different to take for lunch so I thought I'd try them out again on freshly baked bread with salt and pepper, and I've been having it nearly every day since!
If you follow me on Instagram, you might have noticed that I've been using Photoshop lately for my creative images. Granted, it's definitely still a work in progress but it is SO much fun. Every new picture I make is a new favourite and thankfully, you guys seem to love them too which makes me v v happy.
I don't online shop that often, but when I saw Anthropologie was having a sale and I ran out of candles in the house, I made a little order to pick up another two and some new mugs aswell. Why is everything they do in that store so pretty? It's such a dangerous thing for my bank balance!
The week before my wedding I developed a new relationship with afternoon naps, and although I don't have one every day anymore, I'm still sneaking in the odd one every now and then! I think sleep is so important, so I'm basically using the fact that it's good for me as an excuse to have a quick 30 minutes if I need it. You only live once!
Dan bought crash bandicoot for his Xbox, and over the last few months I've basically taken over and played it every single day! It totally brings me back to my childhood, it is extremely addictive, and I usually mute the TV and pop on a podcast in the background.
WHAT I LEARNT FROM MY INSTAGRAM BEING BROKEN.
If you follow me over on Instagram, you might have seen me on my stories saying my app isn't working. I think now (after about 5 or 6 days) it's a little better, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. When I say broken, I mean that I still could post, but I wasn't seeing anyone else's pictures. I tried refreshing, deleting and re-installing, and even reporting the problem to Instagram, but nothing seemed to work until today when it's getting slowly back to normal again.
I thought I was pretty good at being mindful online, and only going on when I had a decent amount of time spare to interact with people. But actually, I've realised how much I just scroll mindlessly, clicking 'like' but not commenting as much as I probably should of. I love getting comments myself, so I know how much it means when people like your pictures!
What I'm taking away from it: From here on out, I'm definitely going to try engage and leave meaningful comments more.
For me, what I've realised the most with it being broken is how much I rely on and truly love chatting to the lovely, supportive community online. To me, it's more than just an app. It's friendships, encouragement, and if you use it correctly, it's full of people who want to see you thrive. I could get all heart eye emoji's over this, but I'll try and refrain myself! I missed seeing everyone's posts and updates on their life, and the heart-warming sense of community.
What I'm taking away from it: I think I value it so much more now than I did before.
I was pondering the other day how I'd be if Instagram didn't exist, and the word that stood out to me the most was, uninspired. I've always been a very visual person, and I adore the content that my favourite Instagrammers produce. It makes me feel creative, want to try new things, and not feel limited by my iPhone camera. Basically, it makes me want to create. I would definitely miss that if it ever went away.
What I'm taking away from it: Let people know when they've inspired me, and start seeking out new accounts more often to add to the inspo.
It sounds silly, but I guess that little app has taught me a lot. Has it ever taught you anything?
I'm sure if your a regular reader of this blog or my Instagram, you'll know how much I love being creative. To me, being creative can be loads of different things. No longer does it mean you have to be good at painting or a fantastic drawer, I spent so many years thinking I was such an uncreative person simply because I didn't do well in Art at school.
Having an idea pop in my head completely random, and spending the afternoon creating it, with no time restraints or limits. Posting it on Instagram and beaming with happiness that the image in my head turned out as I hoped in real life!
The feeling of calm as I use my paints to create different colours and shapes. Brush strokes that feel therapeutic and settle my mind.
Letting my thoughts and imagination wander on a walk and enjoying the great outside.
Feeling like the possibilities of creativity are endless, and loving every part of it. Yes, even if it means the stuff you didn't end up happy with and angrily threw in the bin!
Marvelling at something that has come from ME, and the pride that comes with that.
Spending a few hours in the kitchen baking, and getting lost in my own world.
Making up my own yoga flows, dependant on what my body and mind needs on that particular day.
Falling to sleep and a blog post idea magically enters your mind! I always hope I remember it in the morning.
Painting my nails. Yes, that's creative to me! Of course, who else is going to choose the colour I want to go for?

New club aims to stop racism in sports
Rosa Caramazza, Staff Writer|February 28, 2020
Students inspired by Asking for Courage Day started the Student Athletes Fighting Racism in Sports (SAFRIS) Club to have discussions and take action against racism in high school sports.
Racism in sports has been going on for decades, and the Student Athletes Fighting Racism in Sports (SAFRIS) Club is creating a space for student athletes and people who are interested in the topic to talk about what is on their minds.
The club's hope is to create a space where people can be heard and where action will be taken if an incident of racism in sports does occur.
After attending the Asking for Courage assemblies, sophomores Jacob Smagula and Jonah Barer decided to take action and do something about the racism they had been seeing in sports. Smagula and Barer recently started the club with the help of their teacher advisor, math teacher and Racial Awareness teacher Hayley Wells.
"We had a really good conversation in our classes after Asking for Courage, and I was trying to encourage people to come up with an action step they wanted to take. For Jacob and Jonah, that was their action step. They asked me and it wasn't even a question for me to accept," Wells said.
Smagula said that at the first meeting, the discussion was about sharing stories and describing the steps that could be taken when an incident occurs.
"We shared our stories and talked about how it affected the people who were targeted and who were just watching which is us in our case," Smagula said. "We want to have a place where students can come in and tell us what happened, and our club will take up the issue with the school."
Sophomore Lucas Amaral, a club member, described the first meeting.
"We talked about our experiences with racism in sports, what previous experience we had, and how we wanted the further meetings to go. We talked about if we wanted to deal with racism in professional sports or with racism in school sports," Amaral said.
Wells's job during a meeting is to help Smagula and Barer facilitate the discussion.
"Jacob and Jonah definitely commanded the room and came up with what they wanted to talk about, but really my main role was if it felt like the questions weren't landing, I tried to rephrase it," Wells said. "The idea is that it's student-led, and I am there for support when needed."
Sharing stories about racist experiences is important to the club leaders because they are trying to create a space where people can feel supported when exposing themselves and their experiences.
"I hope we can bring awareness to the problems that a lot of the sports teams here at BHS face and along with problems in the real world," Smagula said. "It's not just us sharing our stories, but we're trying to create a place where everyone can come and share their stories with no judgment."
Barer values the importance of compassion and reassurance during club meetings.
"I felt with each story that was told, a couple more hands went up because people felt more comfortable telling their stories," Barer said. "I think it's really important to have a space where people feel comfortable."
To Amaral, sports without racism would foster equality and a secure space for all who participate.
"I think sports should ideally look like everyone can have an equal opportunity to feel safe competing and not have to worry about feeling uncomfortable," Amaral said.
Smagula shared this ideal.
"A fair chance for everyone no matter where they come from, socioeconomically or
what they look like, or how they identify," Smagula said.
Barer described what sports without racism should look like as well.
"No microaggressions, no insults, no slurs," Barer said.
The club hopes to take action to make a difference.
"I feel coaches should be more aware in general, not any coach or any specific sport, but should just be more aware of how racism impacts players," Smagula said.
Even though what has happened in the past cannot be fixed, Smagula and Barer are determined to offer a place of support for people who do experience racism in sports.
"The things that have already happened to us in the past. Sadly it's too late to go back and try to fix what happened there," Smagula said. "So all we can do is offer reassurance that in the future we are going to be there."

Some small changes were decided for the ETP4HPC bylaws.
Another important subject discussed was the preparation of the SRA (strategic reaerach agenda) and the progress made so far. The structure of the SRA appears better defined and the next step should be the organization of the contributions from ETP4HPC members and non members. On October the 4th there will be a SRA workshop meeting in Barcelona.

Q: How to use robocopy to copy directories on different domains I want to copy a directory(abc) from domain1/user1 to domain2/user1. any idea how to do this.
e.g robocopy
robocopy \\server1\G$\testdir\%3 \\server2\g$\uploads

and both are on different domains

A: Robocopy will use the standard windows authentication mechanism.
So you probably need to connect to the servers using the appropriate credentials before you issue the robocopy command.
You can use net use to do this and you could put that in a batch script.
Note that Windows doesn't like you to connect to the same server with two different sets of credentials (so you can't copy from and to the same server as different users).  But that's not what it looks like you need.
Something like this:
net use \\server1\g$ /user:domain1\user1 *
net use \\server2\g$ /user:domain2\user2 *
robocopy \\server1\G$\testdir\%3 \\server2\g$\uploads

Notes:

*

*This is using 'deviceless' connections which will not be recreated at start up (and won't appear with a drive letter in windows explorer).

*The asterisk at the end of the net use command means prompt for password, you could hard code the password in there (or get it as a parameter to the script).

*Might be worth reading up on net use to make sure it does what you need.

You can probably also remove the network connection to the servers by using this (I haven't tried this with a deviceless connection):
net use \\server1\g$ /delete
net use \\server2\g$ /delete


We recently highlighted a great set of video classes from ChefSteps that show you how to make the ultimate burger patties and brioches.
Now we're back to focus in on the team's newest recipe for a hi-tech veggie burger, an ultimate guide to the ultimate veggie patties.
Made from black beans, the burger is cooked sous vide and is toped with simple slices of tomato and cheese.
Take a look at the video below and have a go at making them yourself at home, even if you're an avid meat eater we think you'll be surpassed at the results.


Cortaflex super fenn super strength powder fortified with ASU and Silicon.
Wear and tear to the joints is a normal function and will occur naturally with age, but our domestication of the horse has increased the stresses on the joints, resulting in reduced mobility. Constant pounding on artificial, hard or heavy ground is very demanding on joints – even hacking can cause abnormal wear and tear, metal shoes increase concussion and confinements of stables increases pressure. In these circumstances feeding a proven joint supplement can help to support healthy joints.
To keep my team sound and supple I run them on Cortaflex HA Liquid and maintain them on Cortaflex Powder, and for myself I take Cortaflex capsules.' Pippa Funnell.


When you write a book or ebook, you should also create an audiobook out of your book.
Hi John, I have been dreaming about making an audiobook! I am dying to make an audiobook! But I can't begin to think how and where I can get a sound proof room, the correct equipment, and a techie to help me with that. I can do the narrative: my book is a historical memoir and it would make so much more sense to reach more people than having it printed in large print, which I have been considering. Can you tell me more? I currently live in Cary, NC – have just moved there so I don't have any connections yet. But all around in this "Research Triangle" must be many opportunities to make my dream come true. I just don't know how.
You don't need the sound-proof room or equipment if you hire someone. Check out the audio creation websites here: http://bookmarketingbestsellers.com/10-reasons-why-you-should-create-an-audiobook.
I watched the video and saw the list. The long list. Which one would you recommend I hire? Any idea what it would cost? And an audio book is way different from a video.
I'd check out http://www.Voices.com. You can negotiate prices.


The minimalist, Kydex inside-the-waistband holster has really come into its own, and Tulster makes a very good example for many popular personal-defense pistols. Vacuum formed from a single sheet of Kydex, with a sturdy polymer belt clip—soft loops are available separately—and adjustable retention, Tulster's holsters are light, trim and provide good security and concealment.
Tulster is also innovating in the concealed-carry market, as evidenced by its Echo Mag Carrier, which is designed for versatility. Sharing a similar construction pattern with the company's holsters, the Echo also features bilateral slotted screw holes which allow it to be adapted for inside-the-waistband or outside-the-waistband carry, and left- or right-hand use by simply swapping the clip between the sides, and there is a small degree of cant and ride height adjustment as well.
The Echo also uses Tulster's Mag Retention Device (MRD), an internal tensioning mechanism which allows a single carrier to accommodate and secure a wide range of magazines. Echo Mag Carriers are available in four configurations: 9 mm/.40 Double Stack; 9 mm/.40 Single Stack; .45 Double Stack; and .45 Single Stack. A 1/8" allen wrench is included for MRD adjustment, and 12 color/pattern options are available.

Lifting the Veil over BJP's Digital Army
1 comments | by M.R. Narayan Swamy
Book Review: " I am a Troll: Inside the Secret World of BJP's Digital Army"; Author: Swati Chaturvedi; Publisher: Juggernaut; Pages: 171; Price: Rs 250
"Why does the PM of India alone among world leaders follow some of his country's worst online abusers?" Journalist Swati Chaturvedi asks this damning question and goes to answer it in an explosive expose of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) secret digital world where everyone who disagrees becomes an enemy.
After being abused and hounded on social media for six months, a fed up Swati became the first Indian journalist to file a police complaint. Under intense pressure, Twitter suspended the handle and gave Delhi Police the IP and email addresses of the anonymous slanderer. But no arrest was ever made because the culprits had "powerful backers in the government".
This triggered Swati's two-year investigation into the BJP digital army. She spoke to BJP and RSS leaders, senior government officials, even BJP trolls who met her furtively. The best catch was Sadhavi Khosla, who admitted to being part of the BJP digital cell and sending hate messages until she got disgusted and her original admiration for Narendra Modi thinned out.
The book says that several journalists, especially women, who have liberal political opinions and question government policies are at the receiving end of "violent, often sexually loaded, abuse from rightwing trolls". One routine abuse is "sickular presstitute". Swati calls them "goons" of the online world.
According to the book, among the handles followed by Modi are 26 accounts that sexually harass, make death threats and abuse politicians from other parties as well as journalists. Many make communal statements. Footage taken from Pakistan and Bangladesh is passed off as Indian, with the audio suppressed. Swati wonders why should any leader or party crave a support base making violent threats against women, issuing death threats and spreading communal poison?
The BJP's social media cell, the book says, is a superbly organised centre, highly effective in spreading messages. The BJP had with foresight created a bank of thousands of dormant Twitter accounts when the verification process was less stringent. These are used when the BJP goes for synchronised tweeting. "They also have bots controlled by the party's central IT cell which tweet out identical messages simultaneously. These are algorithms acting in social media networks which to the outside world look like a real user."
Swati is certain, after her extensive interview with former insider Khosla, that there is a clear link between online rightwing trolls and the BJP and that the BJP IT cell controls much of the online trolling.
At one time, the book says, an agency was being paid to tweet against Arvind Kejriwal at the rate of Rs 40 for seven tweets. But it wasn't clear who was making the payments.
"The BJP's social media cell has the potential to morph into a bigger monster as it attacks citizens for not conforming to the party's world view on issues like diet, religion, Kashmir and tribal rights. It is time we opened our eyes to the dangers ahead." This is an explosive book.

New to Netflix – November 2018
This month, Netflix is done with the spooks and thrills of October and is adding new seasons of its most-watched shows like House of Cards, as well as family favorite movies like Spy Kids to its streaming options. For those in charge of cooking for Thanksgiving, look no further than a new season of The Great British Baking Show and Meryl Streep in Julie and Julia to keep you occupied in the kitchen.
"I'm huge food nerd, so I'm stoked that a new season of The Great British Baking Show is coming. Also, I've seen Jiro Dreams of Sushi a few times but it is definitely worth watching again." – SEAN
"Definitely some heavy material, but I absolutely LOVED Children of Men when it was released 2006. I actually met one of the screenwriters at a house painting party in Vermont! How Vermont-y is that? My pre-schooler will be excited about Beat Bugs: Season 3, which I can tolerate watching ad nauseam because it features the wonderful music of The Beatles." – ABBIE
