Q: Tooltip: position & full width (at the same time) What CSS would force a tooltip:-

*

*to be positioned just above its reference text and

*to take up the full width of its reference text's container

...at the same time?

By default, the length between the reference text's first and last characters are considered. How to make the reference text's most left and right edges to be considered the length for the absolutely positioned child element?

.tooltip {
        width: 100%;
        margin: 0 auto;
        /* left: 0; */
        /* right: 0; */

        position: absolute;
        top: 0;
        transform: translateY(calc(-100% - 5px));
        background-color: white;
        color: red;
        border: 1px solid red;
      }

      .has-tooltip {
        position: relative;
        outline: 1px solid black;
      }

      /* ########### NOT IMPORTANT ############ */

      body {
        text-align: justify;
      }

      .container {
        display: table-cell;
        resize: both;
        overflow: auto;
        border: 1px solid gray;
        padding: 5px;
        width: 595px;
      }

      .filler {
        color: gray;
      }

        Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
        Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa.
        Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes,
        nascetur ridiculus mus. Donec quam felis, ultricies nec,
        pellentesque eu, pretium quis, sem. Nulla consequat massa quis enim.

        The tooltip spreads between the first and last characters of this text.
        Is there any way to force the tooltip to take up the
        full width of this reference text while at the same time
        it is also absolute positioned to this reference text.

            Tooltip: position & full width (at the same time)?

        Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
        Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor.

A: The question is how to get a tooltop positioned in relation to the text it is describing and have it positioned and sized in relation to the containing block.
The snippet here changes the original question by placing the tooltip after the text it describes, this is because I cannot work out what is being asked for if the tooltip is above and allow both the text within the tooltip to be of arbitrary length (maybe going over many lines) and it not cover its related text if the text is near the top of the displayed page.
The changes to the snippet in the question are: remove the top and transform CSS in .tooltip and replace with left:0; change the HTML so the text and its tooltip are in separate spans; put in a CSS rule that changes the tooltip appearance (display:block) if its sibling text has has-tooltip class
There is some tidying up to be done in terms of positioning tooltip - margins/padding - depending on exactly what look is required but I hope this gives a basic idea.

.tooltip {
        width: 100%;
        margin: 0 auto;
        /* left: 0; */
        /* right: 0; */

        position: absolute;
        background-color: white;
        color: red;
        border: 1px solid red;
        left:0;
      }
      span.has-tooltip + span {
        display: block;
      }
      .has-tooltip {
        position: relative;
        outline: 1px solid black;
      }

      /* ########### NOT IMPORTANT ############ */

      body {
        text-align: justify;
      }

      .container {
        display: table-cell;
        resize: both;
        overflow: auto;
        border: 1px solid gray;
        padding: 5px;
      }
      .container, .tooltip {
        width: 595px;
      }

      .filler {
        color: gray;
      }

        Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
        Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa.
        Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes,
        nascetur ridiculus mus. Donec quam felis, ultricies nec,
        pellentesque eu, pretium quis, sem. Nulla consequat massa quis enim.

        The tooltip spreads between the first and last characters of this text.
        Is there any way to force the tooltip to take up the
        full width of this reference text while at the same time
        it is also absolute positioned to this reference text.

            Tooltip: position & full width (at the same time)?

        Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
        Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor.

A: Both vertical and horizontal alignment requires relative positioning. The problem is that the alignments require different elements to align to, while we can use only one element.
So the problem can be rephrased as: can we substitute one out of the two relative positioning somehow?
Giving a try to ::before / ::after it has turned out that the vertical positioning can be substituted with them. The down side is that it is fixed: the tooltip is always above or always below to the reference text, but in return there is no javascript.
Making this solution complete with control too, I am combining it with another stackoverflow answer provided by G-Cyrillus which employes "focus" and "tabindex". Finally, for completeness, some transition has also been applied.

.has-tooltip-before::before {
  transform: translateY(calc(-100% - 5px));
  position: absolute;
  pointer-events: none;
  content: attr(data-tooltip);
  left: 5px;
  right: 5px;
  background-color: white;
  color: red;
  border: 1px solid red;
  padding: 5px;
  opacity: 0;
  transition: opacity 1s;
}

.has-tooltip-after::after {
  transform: translateY(calc(1em + 5px));
  position: absolute;
  pointer-events: none;
  content: attr(data-tooltip);
  left: 5px;
  right: 5px;
  background-color: white;
  color: red;
  border: 1px solid red;
  padding: 5px;
  opacity: 0;
  transition: opacity 1s;
}

.has-tooltip-before:focus::before,
.has-tooltip-after:focus::after {
  opacity: 1;
}

.has-tooltip-before,
.has-tooltip-after {
  cursor: pointer;
  border-bottom: 1px dotted;

Before Bernie Sanders, There Was Zeidler, a Religious Socialist
Then-Mayor Frank Zeigler, right, with his wife Agnes on election night in 1952 in Milwaukee.
MILWAUKEE — One night in April 1948, when Bernie Sanders was a 6-year-old boy in Brooklyn, Frank Zeidler was elected mayor of Milwaukee on the Socialist Party line. He would hold the office for a dozen years. Until Mr. Sanders undertook his presidential campaign, Mr. Zeidler had been the last prominent and successful Socialist politician in America.
While Mr. Sanders is a secular Jew, though, Mayor Zeidler was a devoted Christian, who remained active in the Redeemer Lutheran Church here until his death in 2006 at age 93. As Mr. Sanders brings his quest for a "political revolution" into the Wisconsin primary on Tuesday, Mr. Zeidler's legacy, both religious and ideological, lives on in a series of public conversations held by his lifelong church.
Perhaps it did not qualify as revolutionary, but on a balmy evening last month, the line of attendees for a discussion on the topic "Interrupting Racism" stretched out the back door of the Redeemer church. Hobbling on canes, hoisting backpacks and bike helmets, clad in hoodies, kente cloth and down vests, they represented a convergence of races, ages and political beliefs that is unusual in one of the nation's most segregated metropolitan areas.
Eventually, more than 150 people formed discussion circles of five or six throughout the church's rooms. For 90 minutes, they spoke, but they mostly listened about one another's encounters with racial hate. In one group, a middle-aged white man admitted his lasting shame at not confronting a boss who made a racial slur about a black employee.
Across the scuffed parquet of the social hall, a white woman in another circle spoke of her shopping trips to the affluent suburb of Shorewood, where she noticed that the police routinely pulled over black drivers. Such things, she said, left her able only to pray, and then feeling inadequate in her prayers.
Such discussions were surely in the Zeidler spirit. As a mayor, he presided over a city begrudgingly accepting African-Americans who had moved northward in the Great Migration. His home state was so politically schizophrenic that during Mr. Zeidler's Socialist heyday, one of Wisconsin's senators was the Red-baiting Joseph R. McCarthy.
Even as socialism provided Mr. Zeidler with an ideological lens, the church supplied the moral teachings that he considered the essential complement. Far from resisting religion's voice in the public square, he welcomed it, as does the program of topical discussions that bears his name.
"My father always said, 'You do nothing alone,'" said the mayor's daughter Anita Zeidler, a senior lecturer in educational psychology at the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. "And when I need people to work together with and to make social change, I look to the religious. Because these are people of good will, who will put effort into doing what needs to be done.'"
Her father, the son of a barber, graduated from high school just before the stock market crash in 1929, which set off the Depression and cast global doubt on the capitalist order. After enlisting in the Army, a reliable way of getting a paycheck, he washed out of boot camp with rheumatic fever, often a fatal disease in the era before antibiotics.
During a yearlong convalescence, Mr. Zeidler methodically read books of political philosophy in search of a belief system. "Essentially, what he said is that he was drawn to socialism because they believed in brotherhood and equality and getting things done through democratic cooperation," Dr. Zeidler recalled. "It was all about fairness."
Mr. Zeidler's decision placed him within a long tradition of socialism in Milwaukee, tracing back to the liberals and intellectuals who immigrated here after the failed revolutions in the mid-1850s in Germany and Austria. They and their descendants proudly and puckishly called their American version "sewer socialism," for its practical approach to solving urban problems.
He eschewed the secular vein in socialism, struggling to reconcile it with his Lutheran faith. At one point in his young adulthood, while teaching Sunday school to teenage boys, he was fired by Redeemer's pastor for having brought up Darwin and evolution. Decades later, after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, a congregant placed an American flag in the sanctuary. Mr. Zeidler responded by installing the United Nations flag next to it.
In his post-mayoral life, Mr. Zeidler worked as a mediator, even toting his oxygen tank with him to hear cases in his 90s. Sensing his coming death, Mr. Zeidler confided to friends at Redeemer that he wanted to be remembered through "a place where people could gather for civil dialogue on the topics of the day."
One problem was that Mr. Zeidler was not wealthy enough to endow such a place himself. Another was that Redeemer Lutheran had seen its membership dwindle to about 100. The newly founded Frank Zeidler Center for Public Discussion held only a handful of events from 2006 to 2010.
But one of Mr. Zeidler's lifelong friends, a professor named Mildred Templin, bequeathed about $70,000 to the Zeidler Center. Some of the money went toward hiring a part-time director, the Rev. Lisa Bates-Froiland, who became Redeemer's part-time pastor in 2011. On Ms. Bates-Froiland's first day in the two jobs, she held a public conversation with 200 people, a sign of her intent to resuscitate the Zeidler Center along with the congregation.
Ms. Bates-Froiland has handed over the center's leadership to Katherine Wilson, a scholar who wrote her doctoral dissertation on survivor testimonies about genocide.
The center has trained 250 facilitators and holds public events monthly on issues ranging from immigration to gun violence to interfaith relations.
It also conducts private meetings between residents of Milwaukee's nonwhite neighborhoods and its mostly white police force.
Most recently, the center has worked in partnership with the Milwaukee Repertory Theater to convene discussion after performances of its show "American Song," which concerns a mass shooting and its aftermath.
Nothing might have pleased Frank Zeidler more than the involvement of someone like Allan Knepper.
Mr. Knepper, 70, is a self-described "conservative right-wing gun-owner white guy from the suburbs." He was active for several years in the Tea Party movement and said he expected to vote for Ted Cruz in the Wisconsin primary.
Even so, he had always enjoyed political conversation that crossed partisan and ideological divides. It was just increasingly hard to find.
So when he spotted an article in The Milwaukee Journal -Sentinel about Redeemer's program, he joined a discussion on Wisconsin's concealed-carry law.
With Ms. Bates-Froiland coaxing along the conversation, Mr. Knepper talked about having grown up on an Iowa farm, where hunting was part of life. Nobody in his family, he said, had ever harmed anyone with a gun.
Under the rules of the Zeidler Center conversations, the other people in the circle had to listen in silence as he spoke, and pause for a moment's reflection before saying anything in response.
And Mr. Knepper had to do the same thing as other people spoke of losing children to gun violence.
"What I have gotten out of it is the ability to listen to others," said Mr. Knepper, a veteran of about 10 Zeidler Center events over four years. "I have gotten better at explaining what my background and experience is, and thinking about whether it's a positive or a negative in my life. What does someone get from me? I'm a distinct outlier among all the do-gooders, but I like that role. Because if we are going to accomplish some of the things we say, if we're going to talk diversity, we better be ready for some."

Thoroughly rinse the corned beef in the steamer basket of the pressure cooker, discarding any spices that were in the package with it.
Lightly crush the garlic cloves and remove the skins.
Place the peppercorns, mustard seeds, celery seeds, fennel seed, Cayenne powder, and garlic cloves into the bottom of the pressure cooker pan.
Pour in the stout and heat the pressure cooker pan until the stout begins to boil.
Turn down the heat and simmer the stout-and-spice mixture for 5 minutes.
Place the steamer basket into the pressure cooker on top of the spices.
Pour water into the pressure cooker to cover the corned beef by at least 2 inches.
Place the lid on the pressure cooker and, following the manufacturer's instructions, cook the corned beef at high pressure for 50 minutes (100 kPa, or 15 psi).
Remove the pressure cooker from the heat, and allow the pressure to subside gradually.
Remove the lid and allow the steamer basket to cool before lifting it out of the pressure cooker.
This is a slightly spicier version of a recipe I found on a web site that publishes much advice on pressure cooking. It reduces the cooking time from 3 or 4 hours to just under one hour. And the added spices are a big improvement on the few and insipid spices in the corned beef packages that are available to me.

Mitre Corp., which hosts the Common Vulnerability Exposure List, a federally funded standard dictionary of software bugs, is developing a standard language to use in searching for these vulnerabilities in computer systems.
The Open Vulnerability Assessment Language is the next step in standardizing vulnerability management, said Robert A. Martin, CVE compatibility lead for Mitre, of Bedford, Mass.
'It's how you describe the test conditions for vulnerabilities,' Martin said today at the Secure Trusted Operating System Consortium Symposium in Washington. It will describe software configuration parameters used in querying various platforms for known vulnerabilities.
Until development of the CVE in 1999 there was no standard way to identify the vulnerabilities that plague software. The various communities involved in info security'software developers and vendors, researchers, security experts, systems administrators and security officers'describe vulnerabilities in different ways, making it difficult to discuss security problems.
The CVE is not a database of vulnerability information or a taxonomy, but a common dictionary used by government, academia and industry in referring to recognized vulnerabilities.
The CVE list now contains about 2,572 entries, with another 3,832 under evaluation. It is funded by the Homeland Security Department under FedCIRC.
To date, 143 computer security products or services from 96 organizations are compatible with the scheme, using CVE designations to identify vulnerabilities.
Both the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the Defense Department recommend that agencies give preference to CVE-compatible products.
Although testing and scanning tools are becoming common for discovering vulnerabilities in computer systems, there are no standards for these tasks. OVAL will provide standards so that automating vulnerability management can be more effective, Martin said. It will define the attributes needed to find vulnerabilities in a system, to prioritize them and fix them.


Hello. This lesson is going to introduce ordinary linear regression.
a best fit linear model between two dimensions under certain assumptions.
between different dimensions of a data set.
but sometimes it's misapplied and we have to be careful about that.
ideas that might be more powerful and be able to provide a better model.
This lesson includes two things.
at our notebook introduction to ordinary linear regression.
So what is this visual website?
The idea here is that you can play with the points and see what happens.
"What happens if this point was down here?"
And you could see as you drag it, the line changes.
Not only that, but the fit parameters over here change as well.
and our parameters that control that are going to get tight as well.
we can of course play with our website and see how this affects things.
and we want to minimize these squares.
we're regressing to points to this line and it's an ordinary least squares.
the squares are sort of what we're trying to minimize.
You can do this by playing with both of these.
and we can also change the slope of our line.
we may get a really good fit or we may get a really bad fit.
So hopefully that shows you what's going on with simple linear regression.
Now, our notebook is going to talk about this in a little bit more detail.
We're going to analyze a data set.
First, we're going to use one data set that's included in Seaborn called Anscombe.
And so first we just grab it.
There's four different subsets in this particular dataset.
Here's the first part of one of them and you can just see there's X and Y.
and it's not too bad.
Point 8 1 6 Pearsonr.
We can then say, well, what does the data look like?
so we can actually fit a linear model using Seaborn.
fit regression true and it displays our line and you go.
Now what about the residuals about this line.
You can plot these with the Seaborn's residplot.
And there you see that they're not too bad.
our Pearson correlation coefficient by using the joint plot.
you can clearly see differences.
Here's the original one we looked at.
and these points clearly don't have a linear relationship.
view your data, to ensure that a linear model is even appropriate.
t hey life is good, we've got a pretty good correlation, we can go forward.
you can see these are not good fits to the data set.
We can actually perform the regression and calculate the parameters.
Here we're fitting a line and getting a Pearson correlation coefficient by using numpy.
here's our Seaborn plot and then we can fit a line to that.
And these epsilons are what we're trying to minimize in our equation.
If I scroll back up, you'll see these here.
which account for the difference between the model and the data point.
We want to model, minimize those by performing our regression.
the best fit line will minimize the sum of those differences.
as we saw in the previous linear website.
we could do it which this notebook walks you through.
linear regressions in a categorical variable to see differences.
We've seen this before with the tips data set.
a lot more scatter at the dinner time for the total bill and the tip.
there's a stronger correlation in the lunch and a much weaker one in the dinner.
so we can perform regression on both of those.
upwards as the exponential compounding continues.
So instead what we can do is change our variable to the logarithm of that.
And then you notice that we get a perfect straight line fit.
it's the parameters that must be linear.
on that and get a really good fit when it is distributed in a logarithm manner.
So I hope this has given you a bit of an introduction to ordinary linear regression.
useful to get a feel for what's happening in your data.
reflective of the properties that are required for ordinary linear regression.
such as bad bias and variants that are fitting models or overfitting.

"The US–Italy Economic Relations in a Divided World", Adriana Castagnoli (IAI, Italy)
In 2021, bilateral trade returned to the sustained pace it had prior to the Covid pandemic. Direct investment also grew – crucially, not just Italian investment in the United States but the other way round too. While Italy's economic ties with Russia and China remain potential hotspots, Rome has never questioned its Atlantic orientation. Nevertheless, possible austerity policies following sanctions against Russia could spread social discontent that populist parties can exploit for consensus purposes in the 2023 general election, rekindling anti-Americanism rooted in different segments of Italian society.

A new mother has died in a freak accident shortly after giving birth, when an elevator at a Spanish hospital activated before the doors closed and the woman was dismembered.
The unnamed woman, 28, was accompanied by her new born child when the accident took place at the Valme Hospital in Seville, southern Spain, reports ABC Sevilla.
A suspected mechanical fault activated the elevator before she was fully pushed into the cabin and the doors had closed properly at approximately 14:30pm local time on Sunday. The woman's head became trapped between the doors and the elevator shaft.
Medical personnel, police and firefighters rushed to the scene but were unable to free the woman's body for two hours reports ABC Sevilla.
The area of the hospital has been closed off while a forensic examination is carried out to determine how exactly the tragedy occurred.
The hospital has meanwhile set up a special reception area for the woman's grieving relatives. Her baby, who was not harmed in the incident, was transported to the Virgen del Rocío children's hospital.

Steve Thompson says he can't remember World Cup final win with England in 2003
Sports Reporter: Kenneth De Souza
Source : Sky Sports
England World Cup winner Steve Thompson says he cannot remember playing in the 2003 final – something he believes is a result of brain damage he sustained playing rugby. The ex-hooker is one of eight former rugby union players taking legal action against the game's authorities after being diagnosed with brain damage, which they claim is a result of their playing career.
"This is the problem, I don't remember any of it. The World Cup was on during the Covid period and in the evenings they were replaying the games. I've never watched the games." Thompson said. "Obviously during the World Cup we would have looked at clips at how we could get better for the next game, but I've never actually watched all the games all the way through."
"I was watching a game where England are playing, and I can see that I'm there, but I can't remember any of it. I can't remember being there whatsoever or being in Australia," he added. "I also watched clips of the New Zealand games on YouTube, when we beat them in Twickenham and also won in New Zealand. I'm there but I can't remember any of it."
"I talked to the specialist about it and they say when you've had significant head trauma through that period, it's like your head's a camera and someone has just taken the film out. The camera is there but it's not recording," he concluded.

Setting goals will help you to achieve your ambitions in life. In this episode we talk about how and why we set goals, and share our goals for the future.
Goals give you focus. They lay out a path for your future, helping you to make the decisions that will help you to move forward with your career. Set time aside to think about your goals and write them down. If you're not sure where to start, listening to other people's goals will help to inspire new ideas.
Some goals take longer than others - splitting up your goals into short term and long term categories will help you to be realistic about how long your goals may take to achieve.
Identifying milestones or setting goalposts will help to break your long term goal down into smaller goals.
Set many different types of goals. In this episode, Femke shares that at Uber, she is encouraged to set different goals. One such goal is a 'citizenship goal' which contributes to the people around you. Femke's current citizenship goal is contributing to the Uber design community.
Consider setting a range of goals, that develop both your soft skills and hard skills.
When you achieve a goal, take time to reflect on the journey you took to get there. As time passes the goals you set may change, you might place a different value on your achievements - and that's okay.

10 Years of Waiting, A Test of Tawakkul & Finding The One In Just 7 Days!
By Pure Matrimony - April, 10th 2019
Source: Marriage: How to keep it off the Rocks
All praise be to Allah the Lord of the Universe. Peace and blessings be on His Messenger Muhammad , his family and companions. Then, Allah said:
And among His signs is this: He creates for you mates out of your own kind. So that you might find contentment (sukoon) with them, and He engenders love and tenderness between you: in this, behold, there are signs (messages) indeed for people who reflect (think!) [Rum: 21]
As I am sure you are aware, marriage in Islam is a legal contract. It is a contract between two people in the presence of witnesses the Best of whom is Allah Himself before whom this contract is made and to whom the ones making the contract will be accountable. It is therefore essential that they understand what they are contracting to do. I recited before you an ayah (a verse) from the Qur'an where Allah speaks about the institution of marriage, calls it one of His signs and mentions specifically three special features about this institution. He uses three critical words in this ayah:
The first word Allah used is the word Sukoon.
Allah said: And among his signs is this: He creates for you mates out of your own kind so that you may find sukoon with them. So what is sukoon? It is a word that we use in Urdu as well so I am sure all my friends who understand Urdu have an idea about its meaning. In Arabic sukoon is the opposite of Al – Haraka – or movement. In Arabic grammar the equivalent of the maatra on the letter is called Al-Haraka which tells us how the letter "moves" meaning, how it is to be pronounced. When there is a sukoon on the letter it means that the letter remains as it is and will not move and will be pronounced in its original form.
Allah has used the term sukoon as the first purpose of the marriage. He said that He creates mates for us so that we may find sukoon with them. So that we may find contentment with them. The first condition of the contract is that the spouses are undertaking to promise that they will henceforth lead their lives in such a way that they will make their companionship, their home, their being together and their support for one another a source of contentment and sukoon for each other. They are making Allah a witness that henceforth they will not look elsewhere other than towards each other for all the requirements of marriage.
That their eyes, ears, hearts, hands, feet will not stray away from their spouse. That there will be no Haraka, no movement away from the spouse. I ask Allah to give them and all those who are here in this gathering, sukoon with their spouses. It also means that both will make an effort to create a home which is a place of sukoon which they look forward to returning to after having been away from it for various reasons.
The second word that Allah has used in this ayah is: Al-Mawaddah: where He said: Wa ja'ala bainakum mawaddah: And He puts love between you. This refers to the love that the spouses feel for one another. This love is both physical and emotional. Love is an outcome of respect. We can't love someone for whom we feel no respect. It is essential therefore for the spouses to pay attention to the good from each other and to forgive the mistakes. The spouses are like mirrors to each other. They reflect what they see but they have selective memory. When a new image comes before the mirror it is reflected with reference to the good from earlier images, whatever it was. Someone sent me a story which talked about writing the good about our friends in stone and writing their mistakes in the dust. One remains for a long time while the other is blown away by the first breeze that comes.
I believe this is the single most important secret of a good marriage. To have this selective memory for the good and selective amnesia for the bad. Unfortunately many people have the opposite which is the root cause of all problems. The good is taken for granted as one's right. While any mistake is seen as a premeditated crime and treated accordingly. Islam advises the opposite. To forgive not once but 70 times, without reservation.
For the spouse, his or her companion is their best friend. The marriage is a contract where the spouses are undertaking to make each other, their best friends from this day on. It is important to remember however that friendship is only as good as the amount of investment you make in it. It is not magic. It is not automatic. It does not happen. It is made. Consciously. With effort. And the results are directly proportional to the investment.
It is necessary to spend time with your spouse, not with your other friends in some club. It is necessary to develop common interests. It is necessary to take pleasure in each other's work and activity. It is necessary to support each other in all that is good. It is necessary to ensure that you give feedback with care and concern and never in public. It is essential to remember that between spouses there are no defenses because there is trust. And for that reason it is essential for the spouses to exercise special care in dealing with each other's emotions. It is necessary to build a language together, a language of looks, words, signs.
A language that over time becomes almost magical in how it enables one spouse to know what the other is feeling without explanation. A language which is a joy to see when you look at those who have been happily married for many years. It is necessary to consciously remember the good that one spouse does for the other, especially when they are having a bad day and are acting strange. This is the love that Allah talks about when He says that He has put it between the spouses. Like all potential wealth, it has to be accessed or it will remain buried under the sand.
The last word that Allah used in the ayah is Rahma: Mercy; when He said: Wa ja'ala bainakum mawadaatawn wa Rahma. Rahma is a special quality of Allah Himself. It is the mercy that He shows to His creation even when they don't deserve it.
He used this word to describe the relationship between the spouses in the marriage. We are merciful to those who we feel responsible for. We are merciful to our children whereas we may not exercise the same mercy for strange children. However when you are the teacher in a school the same children become your wards and you are merciful to them. The word Rahma in the context of marriage draws our attention to the responsibility that the spouses have for one another. It also draws attention to the fact that over the years each has made a lifetime's investment in the other. To show Rahma – to be merciful – is to honor that investment and to thank the other for making it. Not to take this for granted. Rahma is also the quality when for reasons of life and destiny, when one of the spouses is unable to look after the other or to satisfy them, the other still treats him or her with love and respect and mercy. Rahma is to give without asking for return. To give because there is a pleasure in the giving itself.
Marriage in Islam is therefore a commitment made to each other, of integrity, love, respect and mercy that the spouses are undertaking to make to each other in the presence of Allah who is Witness to all our thoughts, intentions and actions.
I ask Allah to bless this union, to fill the lives of these young people with His Mercy and to make them standard bearers of Islam in every sense of the term so that when they stand before Him on the Day when all of us will stand before Him, He will be pleased with them.
I ask the same dua for all of us.

Mr. Harsh Bahadur
(Chairman)
VGL, with its vertically integrated business model, and its steadfast focus on the evolving needs of its customers, was able to navigate the disruptions caused by the pandemic better than most. The last year was a true test of our strength and spirit, and I think we can say with some confidence that we have emerged more resilient, wiser and more future ready.
With the adjustments and enhancements that we made to our business model, we were able to deliver a very robust 31% increase in retail revenues to ₹2,515 crores. While the increased consumer propensity to shop electronically did provide some tailwinds, it was the ability of our teams to modify our product mix, improve our storytelling, and make our customer interface more compelling that led to such sterling growth. In FY21, we introduced new product lines that included a range of 'essentials', personalised jewellery, and an entirely new channel for beauty products. We also introduced a new mobile application with a simplified user interface and that enabled a 'two-click' shopping experience. The engaging content, both on television and live streamed on digital channels enhanced customer connect, and our new loyalty programme went a long way to ensure customer stickiness. Our Budget Pay offerings, continued to allow customers to buy their favourite products on instalments. What is most heartening is that our teams were able to achieve this growth while maintaining strong operating margins.
EMPLOYEE FOCUS
It was the spirit of our people and their willingness to rise to any challenge that was thrown their way, that was central to the great performance of the company in this most unpredictable year. While keeping the safety and wellbeing of employees as paramount, our teams delivered quarter after quarter of growth. This allowed increments in minimum wage rates, and enhanced payments of overtime, bonuses and profit sharing. Such efforts, and the increased trust of our employees in VGL's vision and capabilities, enabled us to earn the 'Great Place to Work' certification in India, Greater China, the UK, and the US.
Our community engagement continued to make a positive impact on the lives of those around us. We rebranded our 'One for One' programme as 'Your Purchase Feeds', and I am happy to report that VGL has provided 51 million meals since its inception. During the peak of the pandemic, VGL distributed 2.64 lacs masks in the US, UK, India and China, and also provided 34 lacs meals to people in need through Akshaya Patra in Jaipur. During the year, we also on boarded new NGO partners to enhance the reach of our social initiatives.
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP MATTERS
At VGL, we are cognisant of the need to conserve and preserve the natural environment. We strive to reduce our environmental footprint throughout our value chain. We became the only SEZ unit in Rajasthan with LEED Platinum V4 certification. The 'Austin Green Business' award in the US and numerous other awards corroborate our commitment to sustainability. Our efforts towards a sustainable business extend to energy, water, waste and biodiversity through the strategy to Reduce, Recycle, Reuse and Reclaim.
GOOD GOVERNANCE IN LETTER AND SPIRIT
Good governance is the foundation on which we have built our growth-oriented business model. Our framework of corporate governance is robust and is periodically refined with the Board's supervision and guidance. VGL was adjudged the Best Governed Company by The Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) at their National Awards for Excellence in Corporate Governance. The validation of our governance standards has been our consistent performance over the years. You will be happy to know that our Fortune India Next 500 ranking has gone several notches higher from 132 in FY20 to 65 in FY21. We humbly accept these recognitions as a testimony of growing stakeholder confidence in our capabilities.
IN GRATITUDE
As I conclude, I would like to thank my fellow Board members, whose insightful guidance has helped steer VGL from strength to strength, in a dynamic backdrop. I also express my gratitude towards all shareholders, stakeholders, and customers whose continued confidence drives us forward. As we continue to deliver on our strategy and build a consumer centric business, I look forward to your continued patronage.
With My Best Wishes,
Harsh Bahadur
Mr. Sunil Agrawal
(Managing Director)
VGL AT GLANCE
The year gone by tested the resolve of people, societies, countries, and all of humanity. During such a year, we delivered a robust operating and financial performance – made possible by remaining true to our core values.
We remained focused on our vision of being the value leader in electronic retailing of jewellery and lifestyle products. This meant that: 1) we offer outstanding value to customers ahead of competitors 2) we deliver joy to a large and rapidly growing customer base through omni-channel retail presence and 3) we continue building our bottom-price, sourcing capabilities across existing and new product categories.
In addition to delivering strong progress in business, we are deeply committed to our mission of inclusive growth. Our defined mission is a BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) that we aspire to achieve through our flagship program 'Your Purchase Feeds'.
EMPATHY AND ACTION
Over the last year, our commitment to all those who are a part of the VGL's ecosystem, has only strengthened.
With the well-being of our team as a top priority, we took various measure to keep them safe during the pandemic. Our seamless operations continued to deliver throughout this period. Stepping up to the situation with agility, we realigned our business to meet the shifting customer needs. We also donated masks and meals to those in need.
Our endurance was put to test on more occasions than one and each time we emerged more resilient. In February 2021, an arctic snow-storm hit Texas. Despite the severe disruptions, Shop LC continued operations and deliveries.
As you would be aware, our end to end business model forms the base for our unique market position in key retail geographies of US and UK. Most recently, we launched a proprietary TV channel and website in Germany under Shop LC brand. We will operate with a similar value proposition and cater to a similar customer profile as the US and UK. Our learning over the last few years will benefit us immensely there. TV Channel is still in beta version from a temporary studio. We expect to bring it to our own studios before the end of this quarter.
A strong sourcing network across 30 countries, provides the agility necessary for a fast fashion retailer. Over the years we have diversified away from fashion jewellery and added adjacent product categories in line with spending patterns of our target customer base. We added essential products last year, which was an opportune pivot in the backdrop of the pandemic. Overall, all spokes in VGL's wheel of business aligned well to deliver strong performance during the year.
4 R'S OF CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT
Now, coming to our 4R strategy covering Reach, Registrations, Retention and Repeat purchases. This strategy is deeply embedded in our operating model ensuring that our teams are aligned to the Company's objectives.
During the year we expanded our reach with linear TV and OTA programming and enhanced broadcasts via upgraded HD channels. Contracting with new television channel partners, our overall reach increased to 104 million households. In US, we strengthened our presence on OTT platforms, especially on Roku and YouTube; Upgraded our mobile app to enhance customer experience. In short, we reach customers on every platform that they are on, which includes TV, web, mobile, social and marketplaces.
To improve customer Registrations, we further diversified our product portfolio across fashion, home and health & beauty categories. Also introduced essential items and personalised jewellery. In the UK, Shop TJC, launched a new channel 'TJC Beauty', with dedicated product focus showcasing the latest beauty trends and expert opinions. Our deep value proposition and engrossing content drove new customer registrations count to 3.4 lacs for the year compared to 1.78 lacs in the previous year. The total number of unique customers we catered during the year increased 38% YoY, crossing half million mark.
Retention of customers and expansion of lifetime value are important operating metrics. We value our relationships with our customers and ensure greater convenience for them through several service offerings such as Easy Returns, Budget Pay, and Personal Shopper. Well planned holiday season (Thanksgiving and Christmas), with extended order cut-off time, timely deliveries and extended returns period ensured customer delight. In UK, we launched the TJC loyalty programme, 'TJC Plus', offering free and express deliveries, extended warranties, and exclusive deals, for a fixed membership fee. During FY21, overall retention rate improved to 51.5% compared to 50% the year before.
The propensity of customers making Repeat purchases on our various shopping interfaces is driven by the increasingly stronger value proposition. We sold an average of 27 pieces per customer compared to 30 pieces per customer the prior year. This parameter bore slight impact of the large number of new customers acquired last year. We aim to deepen our engagement with these customers going forward.
RETAIL BUSINESS EXPANSION
Moving on to top-line performance - In FY21, overall revenue grew by 28% to Rs. 2,540 crores with almost all of it being contributed by the retail business. Retail revenues, increased by 31% to Rs. 2,515 crores. In local currency terms, Shop LC (US) recorded a growth of 22% and Shop TJC (UK) grew by 32% YoY.
FY21 was a grand stress test for the world. The new normal has made global consumers more aware about value-based buying, which has opened a big window of opportunity for us. Our omni-channel presence and continued emphasis on value-focused shopping have helped us strengthen our position in both our retail markets.
The business model has inherent advantages of operating leverage. A low debt structure and low capex generated a passthrough of the Company's operating leverage to the bottom-line. Gross margins have hovered around the target level of 60%, indicating our ability to expand into new product categories and platforms while maintaining per unit contribution. EBITDA registered a 5-year CAGR of 38.9%, and margins grew by 820 bps from 7.1% in FY17 to 15.3% in FY21. Profits grew at a 5-year CAGR of 46.7%.
BUSINESS TRANSITION DASHBOARD
Being cognizant of the rapidly evolving industry landscape and swiftly adapting to it is our strength. We have delivered consistently with this approach, by growing presence across platforms, expanding product portfolio, and offering value added services. This is reflected in the numbers on your screen. We expect to continue to improve this mix in the coming years.
VALIDATION OF THE BUSINESS MODEL
Improving profitability on a near stable asset base has helped us report higher return ratios. In FY21, ROE increased to 32% from 26% in FY20 and ROCE expanded to 61% from 46%. Our capex-light business model aids strong cash flow numbers. This allows us to maintain a balance between investing in growth and distributing dividend to shareholders. During the year, we paid interim dividends aggregating to Rs. 17.5 per equity share (pre-split). The Board has proposed a final dividend of Rs. 1.5 per equity share (post-split) which will be put to vote during this meeting, and we hope to garner the requisite shareholder support.
At VGL, a conducive environment not only means the opportunity landscape but also the physical world around us. Even though our direct environmental footprint is quite small, based on the nature of our operations, we are committed to reducing it. I am happy to share that in FY22, ~100% power requirement of manufacturing units in Jaipur will be fulfilled through our solar power capacity of 3.23 MW. Towards afforestation we have already planted ~13,000 saplings in one acre land for a Miyawaki forest. Another similar size plantation is underway now. We have also planted 1,100 saplings in the government schools where we distribute our One for One meals.
Under our flagship One for One meal program called 'Your Purchase Feeds…', we continue to deliver a meal to a school going child for every product sold at VGL's retail channels in the US, UK and now Germany. The program offers more than just a meal, it also helps to feed the hearts, minds, and futures of children.
We are guided by our belief in holistic approach towards sustainability, social responsibility, employee well-being, regulatory compliance, and transparent functioning. As shared by our Chairman, it is an honour for us at VGL, to be recognized by ICSI for our deep and sustained commitment to governance practices.
Market share: In FY22, we expect to continue to gain market share in our existing markets of US and UK with constant currency growth of 16-18%. Over the medium term, we expect this growth to range between 15-17%.
Germany: We plan to fully operationalize our Germany business on TV, Web, Marketplaces, Social and OTT during the year.
Digital: We are continually investing in digital assets and marketing. We expect to launch US ECom on advanced Sales Force Commerce Cloud platform this quarter. We expect all our three businesses to reach 50-50 TV-Digital by FY'25.
Lifestyle: We are expecting to expand textile manufacturing in Jaipur as well as sourcing it from China, Vietnam and Bangladesh. Along with expansion of beauty and home solution products, we expect to reach 50-50 Jewellery and Lifestyle product ratio by FY'25.
Technology: We are in the process of automating our warehouses in US and UK to improve efficiencies and reduce error rates substantially. We are also enhancing our analytics, including AI/ML quickly.
Sustainability: As I mentioned above, we are highly conscious of our responsibilities towards communities and environment. Our One for One Meals program will continue to expand with expansion of piece count to nurture children of our world. With our close attention to environment, we are making every effort possible to rapidly reduce our carbon footprint through reduction of carbon as well as sequestering carbon from the atmosphere.

A few days ago, the entire cast of Kabir Khan's 83 had zoomed off to Dharamshala for a boot camp, to prep for the sports film. Prior to that, for the past five months, the actors have been training in Mumbai, under former cricketer Balvinder Singh Sandhu's supervision. However, not every cast member has been lucky enough to meet the iconic player he's emulating in the movie, which is based on India's first victory in cricket World Cup.
Take Dhairya Karwa for instance. BT was the first to tell you that the actor, last seen in URI: The Surgical Strike, has been roped in to play Ravi Shastri. The actor has not yet met the cricketer, who is popular for his commentary skills and is the current head coach of the Indian cricket team.

Hire the Right Heating and Air Conditioner Contractor Heating and air conditioners are very important part of the home comfort. However, most people will only give attention to these systems when problems develop. When these problems develop, they prove costly to remedy. The problem that happens when you delay rectifying a problem is that you make their air conditioning system unsafe. In fact you might be prosecuted by the inspector if it is realized that your air conditioning system is unsafe yet you have not acted towards repair. This is a case where homebuyers often find themselves conflicting with the law. Should you buy a house from its owner, ensure that you check its status comprehensively. Any repairs done before the sale are the responsibility of the seller. The responsibility to do all repairs belong to you as soon as you make the payments. In all aspects, you are liable for any problem in the house that you inherit. This is why it is important to hire a private inspector just to ensure that you are living in a safe place. With the help of the best experts, you can give the home air conditioning and heating system the best care. The law holds a licensed contractor for any mistakes he conducts. This however changes from state to state and you might have partial responsibility for faulty systems. In case you have the rights person doing the job, you are going to live in a safe place.
This does not rule out the fact that all air conditioners are certified. The licensing and certification are some of the things that you must check for any expert. Move on to look at how the person is experienced before you assign the job. Checking on projects that the person has previously done. In case you don't have the time, you can check this by doing some online reviews about the installer. Aim for the maximum value at all times.
Getting the air conditioner from a reputable manufacturer is very important. Even though you buy from a retailer, make sure that the product has the manufacturer warranty and guarantee of quality. After confirming this, you can go on to check for that the products are being sold at a reasonable price. The reasonable price should be a reflection of the system efficiency. Once you have settled on a specific brand, you can request the contractor to help you find the system that fits your house well. The furnace power consumption features as one of the factors to be considered here. It should also include the number of furnaces required in all rooms. The contractor should also advise you with power saving tips. Consider hiring the best expert even for heating and air conditioning repair.

Doubling their fun: Vancouver Island twins appear in Hallmark Christmas movie
Qualicum Beach babies now signed with Vancouver talent agency
Mandy Moraes
Dec. 17, 2021 10:30 a.m.
Look out, Hollywood – two new Vancouver Island stars are born.
A pair of 14-month-old Qualicum Beach twins will share the spotlight alongside Chesapeake Shores actor Robert Buckley in a Hallmark Christmas movie this holiday season.
The Christmas House 2: Deck Those Halls, filmed in Victoria, follows the story of Mike Mitchell (Buckley) and Brandon Mitchell (Johnathan Bennett) as they compete to see who can decorate the best Christmas house.
Mother to the twins, Erica Horsfield Woodruff, said her daughters (Baylee and Charlee) share the role as Bennett's newly adopted infant daughter.
"Babies only get 15 minutes maximum on set at a time – with a total work day of four hours, allowing for nap times, feeding times and all that," said Woodruff. "That's why they use twins predominantly, so that one twin can come for the first four hours and then the other twin comes in for the second four hours."
She said the production company, Front Street Pictures Inc., was very good at allowing her daughters the time and space they needed while on set.

Although Baylee and Charlee are twins, they are not identical.
"They look nothing alike, believe it or not. But apparently, in movies that's OK," their mother said with a chuckle. "One of them has a bit more hair, but they're in toques most of the time because it's Christmas. And I thought they might not want my kids because one of them has more hair than the other, but no."
Woodruff learned that on some film sets, multiple and sometimes unrelated babies are hired to play the same character.
The Christmas House 2 shoot took approximately six weeks in September and October, and the twins were on set for about seven days.
"They absolutely loved being on set," she said. "At first I thought, 'oh, it'll just be a fun story for them when they're older, I'll tell them they were in this movie. And then they fell in love with it."
She said her girls seemed to enjoy the hustle and bustle of an active set, but especially the all-day yogurt and muffin snacks provided. And although the twins were not required to perform a special skill while on-screen, their good behaviour was appreciated.
"The director came up to me and said: 'I don't think your kids are real! They haven't messed up a shot with crying – whenever we put a camera six inches from their face for a closeup, they're just all smiley and happy,'" said Woodruff.

The hardest part for their mother, however, was keeping the girls busy off-screen.
"Being a mom of twins is busy and difficult on its own, but the most challenging part was making sure they're napped and fed," she said.
Woodruff first learned of the casting callout after being tagged in a Facebook post and she then sent a background actor casting agent photos of her daughters. However, by the end, they were hired as principal actors.
With the roaring success of their first film behind them, Baylee and Charlee will also appear in the sequel to Lifetime's The Bad Seed, filmed in Langley for approximately four weeks in November and December. Given that they were on set for nine days, Woodruff imagines her twins will get more screen time in their second movie appearance.
From The Bad Seed sequel, Vancouver talent agency Twins Plus Talent recently signed Baylee and Charlee, allowing for more possible acting opportunities in the future.
"Who knows what they'll want to do when they get older. But we're totally open to it. As long as they keep enjoying it, we'll keep supporting it," said Woodruff, adding that all the money her daughters make gets put into a savings account for college. "They're just working for themselves to do whatever they want to in the future."
The Christmas House 2: Deck Those Halls premieres Saturday, Dec. 18, at 5 p.m. (PST) on the Hallmark Channel and W Network.

The Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM Art lens had the distinction of being the first f/1.8 zoom lens in the world and comes in Canon EF, Nikon F, Pentax K, Sigma SA, and Sony A mounts. It's been very well received and is particularly loved by video shooters. Note that the DC indicates it's a crop sensor lens. Today only, it's $250 off, bringing the price to just $549.
The Manfrotto BeFree Compact Travel Carbon Fiber tripod is a great option for those who want a light tripod that can still support a decent amount of weight. Today only, it's over half off.
Is it for full frame cameras?
I have the Aluminum version. Fantastic tripod. I wish I could get the Carbon Fiber version but there's no time.
Nice to have a testimonial that is a good investment. I picked this up as purely a travel/hiking option as my main tripod (Promaster SP425CK) has some serious gravity in it. I can't bring myself to get something absurdly cheap for travel, so this seemed like as good of time as any to take advantage of 50+% off retail as any.
This tripod is still for sale at the discounted price as of posting this comment (B&H must have had some stock they are clearing out).

Hello and Namaste. Welcome to you all from APF stadium.


This forum is dedicated to Guides and Articles, as one can tell by its name. The idea behind this forum is to provide a place for articles and guides to be exposed to public view and criticism, so that errors and such can be identified and fixed before publishing the article or guide on the Main Site. A side effect of this is that articles can be worked on by teams of writers, not just a single writer. This is especially handy for those working on Strategy Guides and Opening Moves.
Another is that quality control of the article can be performed by more than the single set of moderator eyes that see it before publishing- we can all put in our penny's worth. Accuracy is thus enhanced, as is quality control.
The threads posted here, unborn articles if you will, can thus be presented, worked upon, edited, and corrected in a community atmosphere that can help our community spirit. The threads, when ready for posting, can also double as the "Praise and Criticism" threads that otherwise appear in the Discussion Forums.
Original work only, please. No Plagiarism. Piracy of other people's works will be dealt with firmly and harshly.
Constructive criticism is both appreciated and expected. This is how we improve our works and grow our minds.
Negative criticism, such as 'it sucked' or 'this boned', is neither welcome nor helpful as it contributes nothing of worth except an opinion. Opinions are like assholes- everybody has one and they are all different. Say something helpful or keep your trap shut.
The originator shall edit the OP as necessary. Use replies to notify the forummers/mods that the update has occurred.
Post a reply stating the work is complete when you feel it is ready.
Submissions that make it to the Main Site will be counted towards a Custom Title (see other sticky) for the originator(s). Those contributing to the article/guide through constructive criticism and giving ideas will be credited in the article for their help, though it shall not count towards a custom title. It is far easier to pick apart and improve someone else's work than to create a piece yourself.
The Forum Moderators have the final say concerning a piece.
Upon announcement of the Two-Day Rule, there will be no less than two days before the item is posted to the Main Site. This gives anyone noticing something off or wrong to say their piece before it is posted. If nothing is heard after two days, the item is considered acceptable to all and can then be posted to the Main Site.

Planned downtown Clarksville brewery expansion gets tax increment financing
The planned brewery expansion of downtown Clarksville's Blackhorse Pub & Brewery has gained consent from the local Industrial Development Board for tax increment financing assistance.
The IDB's TIF approval is pending the conclusion of Jeff Robinson's ongoing lawsuit against the city of Clarksville.
Robinson told The Leaf-Chronicle this week that, he and his wife, Sherri, "appreciate the IDB's efforts to stimulate new investment in downtown Clarksville" by helping him clear another hurdle in his business expansion plans.
"We are glad to receive approval for a TIF to help us grow the Blackhorse Pub & Brewery," he said.
The TIF as approved this week by the IDB essentially covers up to 15 percent of Robinson's "qualifying expenditures" on the brewery expansion for up to 20 years from start-up.
TIFs are being used as one incentive to encourage private investment and the overall redevelopment of downtown Clarksville, and the IDB is the administering agent for the TIF program.
IDB Executive Director Mike Evans said this week the Robinson lawsuit against the city "has to be settled" before the TIF is officially granted. Robinson did not attend the mid-week IDB meeting, but his project is billed as expanded production of custom beer brewing that will become a downtown tourist destination.
Robinson's marks the third downtown TIF request to go before the IDB, and while his business plans might seem straight-forward enough, it's all complicated by his 18-month-old legal dispute with Clarksville Mayor Kim McMillan's administration over the planned location.
City Hall is not commenting on the pending litigation.
What Robinson proposes is a two-part project.
Phase 1 is to be the transformation of his existing warehouse at 498 Grant Alley into a facility where the Blackhorse can barrel aged beers.
"We have already begun that process," Robinson said. The total, new investment there is estimated at $300,000.
Phase 2 is to be the construction of a new building at 110 S. Second St. for the expansion of the Clarksville brewery. That total investment should come to about $1 million. "It would add three to five jobs to our existing 100 jobs," Robinson said, adding, "Unfortunately phase 2 is on hold while we are in a lawsuit with the city of Clarksville over the alley that would serve our existing buildings and the new one on Second Street." He says the suit is possibly headed to trial in mid-2018.
"Meanwhile we are working to get all of the necessary approvals to commence construction as soon as possible in the event the lawsuit is resolved," Robinson said.
"To that end we recently got design review approval and our engineers are working on site plan approval. This TIF approval is a welcome and important step in the process," he said.
