Q: After running through my algorithm fine, my array returns as all zeros I've spent a long time finally getting my algorithm to invert Laplace transforms and live plot them to work, but unfortunately, although it seems to run fine within the function, it continuously just plots zeros!

I've wasted so much time getting this thing to work, and now I have no clue what could be wrong. So forgive me but I think I'll have to post the whole thing.
The equation this is based on is a series-integral and it iterates until the series converges. However, it converges super slowly so I used Aitken's delta-squared method to speed the whole thing up. The goal is to populate array y with each Aitken's iteration from 0.000001 to 10 and then compare the estimation' integral with the previous iteration's if a random point in the former is close enough to the latter. This loops until the integrals have a difference of less than 0.01 or a set amount of iterations is reached (~30000).
This happens for 6 equations simultaneously using parallel processing. The graph live plots all 6 (in blue) compared to each of the actual equations they're converging towards (in red) using matplotlib.
For debugging, I basically tried putting a bunch of print statements everywhere in the f_u function to see what was going on. Everything looked like it was going fine. But in the __main__ function and plot functions when I did the same, I was getting all zeros for the same array. I thought it was a local vs. global issue so I put global y in the plot and f_u, with no luck.
To execute this, you're gonna need all the packages in the import statement, including numba. You can remove the @jit decorations on the Laplace functions if you don't want numba, but it will be sloooooow.

Q: Writing program to choose values from a list of integers I have a list of integers, representing the yearly profit (in kilo euro) of n businesses (shops) along the high street in the City centre. I am given 4 (four) businesses ("for free"), that neighbour one another. The problem is to calculate which 4 I should take to maximize my yearly profit.
Given these numbers, write a PYTHON program to calculate which 4 I should take. As examples:
If the profits were 52, 67, -8, 43, -20 I should take the first 4 businesses.
If the profits were -20, 36, -10, -30, 3, 21 I would take no business (this is also allowed)
I'm not great at programming so any help would be appreciated, Cheers!
Initial attempt:
mylist=[52,67,-8,-43,-20]
>>> m=0
>>> for i in range(len(mylist)):
if m<mylist[i]:
    m=mylist[i]

I'm not sure about the last line though so I tried this too which wont work?:
    if mylist[i]>m:
        print mylist[i]

A: *

*Separate your list of profits into adjacent groups of 4
groups = zip(mylist,mylist[1:],mylist[2:],mylist[3:]) #there are many ways of doing this i picked this way

*Pick the group with the largest sum
print "I want :",max_sum(groups) #i will leave the implementation of this up to you

10 FAVORITE DIGIMON GHOST GAME "HAUNTINGS!"
Premiering in Fall of 2021, Ghost Game was a very different idea for a Digimon anime: a horror series in which a brand new, pervasive hologram technology has allowed digital monsters to leak into reality like electronic "hauntings!" Now nearing the final episode of its first season (or final episode altogether?) Ghost Game has been fairly light on continuity or character development, opting instead for the kind of weekly mystery formula you might expect from its genre. I actually find it varying quite a bit whether a given episode holds my own attention span, but we're looking at ten that stood out to me above the rest for one reason or another, and put them in order from lightest to darkest of my picks!
"THE MYSTERY OF THE MUSEUM"
This was only the second episode in the series, and brings back the beloved Mummymon! Haunting a museum display of actual mummies, he begins to kidnap humans, wrap them in bandages and imprison them in an abandoned subway tunnel. As they beg and plead to be released, Mummymon only argues that what he's doing is all for their own good.
As it turns out, Mummymon has been kidnapping humans he has found alone, late at night, depressed and exhausted on their way home from work, and he happens to consider himself a doctor! It's a fun and appropriate twist on the character, whose design has always incorporated medical motifs that have never really been addressed before. As a sworn healer, he believes he MUST take it on himself to help these poor, sick and tired humans, but having learned everything he knows about our species from the Egyptian mummy exhibit, believing literally that we can transcend to immortality only through mummification.
Our protagonist, Hiro, bluntly tells the monster that humans actually just plain die if you wrap them up and bury them, which Mummymon is hilariously quick to accept, releasing his prisoners only a little dehydrated and starved.
The Digimon came dangerously close to subjecting a large number of people to a hideously slow, torturous death, but now realizing that he has more homework to do, he takes Hiro's suggestion to move his haunting activity from the museum to a modern hospital, and Mummymon will in fact reappear from time to time in the series as an expert on at least the medical treatment of fellow Digimon.
EPISODE 4: "THE DOLL'S MANOR"
It's the Halloween special! Of course it stars the pumpkin-headed Pumpmon! Harmless and fun-loving in past appearances, we first see this Pumpmon kidnapping a child to wrap them in vines, encase their head in a pumpkin, and then start carving it into a Jack O' Lantern, just barely missing the victim's actual face with his dagger.
Pumpmon is also assisted by a gang of Digimon minions: two Candlemon and two of the pencil-like Ekakimon! Despite having these neat pals, Pumpmon's motivation is apparently loneliness, or at least loneliness for human friends specifically.
Having been invisible to humans for some time, Pumpmon was delighted when the Halloween season rolled by, believing that the celebration had something to do with him specifically, and that human children wanted to be pumpkin-heads like himself. He was happy to oblige, certain that they'd all become best friends!
This is another Digimon whose reign of terror ends as soon as his misunderstanding is explained to him, and despite having just been threatened by him with a knife, the kids agree to consider themselves his friends. Who wouldn't!
EPISODE 34: "WALL CRAWLERS"
This time, we have reports of "human geckos" around the city; noseless, toothless, green-skinned kids with bulging, yellow eyeballs and the ability to scale walls with their adhesive fingers and toes, but these creatures don't aren't Digimon at all, nor do they really bear any resemblance to any Digimon we've ever seen. In fact, it's pretty clear that the "geckos" were once human children.
Stranger still, the reptilian kids are capable of generating intense amounts of heat through their hands - enough to melt through panes of glass - but don't just sneak into homes to make more of themselves. They also steal and swallow jewelry, specifically diamonds of any kind, which they bring back to their Digimon master and regurgitate into one big pile.
That master, strangely enough, is a Salamandamon, a fire-element lizard that was originally one of Agumon's armor evolutions, here in its first prominent anime role since a brief appearance in Xros Wars. The Digimon craves pure carbon to fuel its flames, and believes a diet of diamonds will make its flames burn "more beautifully." It's the touch of its saliva that transforms human beings into half-lizard monsters, but that only raises ever more alarming questions about what exactly Digital Lifeforms are and how exactly they can manipulate actual matter-based lifeforms to such an extreme.
As disturbing as its methods are, Salamandamon is another that needs only a brief battle and a stern lecture to resolve the issue, agreeing to change the children back and accept delicious, graphite pencils instead of diamonds.
"NIGHTLY PROCESSION OF MONSTERS"
In this episode, the kids hear a rumor that a "procession of monsters" - a classic concept in yokai folklore - and be seen on the freeway at the right time of night. This turns out to be a pack of Digimon engaged in a nightly race, with the violent nun-fetish Digimon, Sistermon Ciel, hilariously leading in a go-kart.
Ciel seems to be having a grand old time of late-night karting, even when the reaper-like Metalfantmon appears to reap the digital souls of slower stragglers...something Ciel apparently looks forward to as the "fun" part of the night.
As the other races explain, it all started in good fun until the thrill-seeking, highly competitive Ciel deliberately summoned the digital reaper to just sort of spice things up, without anyone else's permission. They're not only absorbed by the phantom if they fall behind, but will lose their lives if they attempt to quit the race altogether, trapped in a cycle until presumably all of them will eventually be destroyed.
The maniacal, digital go-karting nun is definitely the oddest and funniest antagonist in the series thus far, and the episode escalates rapidly as the kids and their Digimon find themselves trapped in the race themselves...but it all ends somewhat abruptly and mysteriously, as a Tailmon courier - a character we've seen just a handful of times - appears suddenly to open up a portal to the digital world and send the racers back to where they came. Ciel and Metalphantmon cross over together, but we're left wondering what happens to them from there. She at least seems excited by whatever it is.
EPISODE 23: "MOANING BUG"
Moaning Bug differs from most episodes in that the "victims" aren't humans, but other Digimon already in the human world. It's a strange outbreak of viral data that can befall seemingly any Digimon at any time, causing them to sprout antennae and behave like aggressive, scurrying insects.
It's Mummymon along with Clockmon, another redeemed villain of the week, who determine that the subjects are infected by the scales of a Morphomon, a Digimon that can force other beings to share its emotions. The violent, panicked behavior of the subjects, however, implies that this particular Morphomon must be in serious distress.
Tracing the source of the scales to a satellite signal, Morphomon's location is pinpointed as a single computer owned by an amateur computer scientist, who seems to suspect (correctly) that she's discovered a nonhuman sentience and has managed to imprison it in one of her own harddrives. Fortunately, no complex rescue mission is necessary when the culprit is literally just some nerd; Clockmon simply breaks into her home right in front of her and takes the harddrive with him.
Another happy ending to a Digimon's innocent mistake, but it's interesting just how wrong human-digimon interactions can go in this series. Every single monster, even the most benevolent, can pose its own unique threat as the two drastically different worlds continue to clash.
EPISODE 30: "BAD FRIEND"
This episode is the first-ever animated appearance by Ex-Tyrannomon, despite being one of the first few dozen Digimon ever released! Together with Warumonzaemon, the two creepy, towering mascot costumes befriend a troubled little girl, Kayono, who feels misunderstood and unappreciated by her family and friends. It isn't actually true, mind you, but the Digimon inflate her ego and egg on her spitefulness, convincing her that she's more important than anyone else and that she doesn't need anybody but her two new hologram friends.
Ex-Tyrannomon's signature Black Matter attack is revealed to have a surprising side effect we've never seen before in Digimon media: an ability to transform human beings into disturbing stuffed dolls. Kayono's father is the first victim, and soon Kayono is hooked on the power high of collecting anyone who "annoys" her as a creepy, blank-eyed Hot Topic mini plush.
The girl's mother is plushified eventually, but holds out a surprsingly long time by complying with her daughter's terrifying new friends; this scene where she's threatened by Warumonzaemon is also the one time in this episode that the bear displays the single eye in his stomach, canonically belonging to the digital lifeform controlling the puppetlike body.
This episode is actually the last one on our list with such a tidy, happy ending, as regular old Monzaemon eventually shows up, and was apparently the whole moral compass of the other two monsters before they became separated. Once he uses his unique powers to calm his creepier pals, every doll turns right back into a human, with no clear memory of the prior events, and even the ones Kayono sliced open are thankfully back in one piece.
EPISODE 21: "THE SPIDER'S LURE"
Digimon fans already know that this mysterious woman is the human disguise of a classic villain Digimon, making only her second-ever appearance in this form. "Sonya Molena" presents herself as a researcher with interest in the nervous systems of insects and the brains of humans, which is especially not a good sign.
Sonya drops her disguise fairly quickly into the episode, which is actually the first time we've ever seen a transitional animation between the two forms; Arachnemon's last major role in an anime was as one of the main villains of Digimon Adventure 02, partnered with a Mummymon who might not have been so villainous if he wasn't obsessively in love with the big spider. Always a conniving manipulator, this incarnation of Arachnemon has the additional angle of an evil scientist, desiring more knowledge from both Digimon and humans in order to better understand evolution and unlock the secret to taking on a more powerful form.
But how does she get knowledge???
Evil Scientist Arachnemon eats people's brains, and by the time she reveals that information we have already seen her cocoon multiple scientists that we never see again. This is explicitly a Digimon that has murdered multiple humans, which is not unique for this series, but it's easily the most gruesome and horrible method. And is she even right? Does she actually gain their knowledge, or is she just so deranged she believes eating human brains is making her smarter?
This is an episode with no final, tragic twist and no hint at redemption for its villain before she's obliterated, which is unfortunate, because it means she never even gets the chance to meet Ghost Game Mummymon. He's a doctor! Surely he's good enough now?!
EPISODE 37: "HERD OF THE DEAD"
This episode begins with a couple of businessmen illegally dumping garbage into a pit that apparently once housed a forgotten cemetary. They fail to notice the greenish ooze slithering around the trash heap, even when it seeps into and reanimated a number of human corpses! Not just greenish ooze, but what appear to be metallic cables! These cyber-slime-zombies even spread digital undeath to living animals or humans with a bite, and once fully turned, zombies mindlessly make their way back to the trash heap where they're drawn in and eaten alive by something unseen. It even spits their bones back out!
If you're up to date with Digimon, the gooey zombies may have already reminded you of Rareraremon, and it's funny, when I made up my own hypothetical evolution for this Digimon, I already suggested that its biomass should be able to create zombies, something not already hinted by any of its bio information before! This one is not only creating zombies, but has been using them to construct its entire physical form.
This is only Rareraremon's second anime appearance, but less than a year after its first and its overall debut. We now also know that it can talk, or at least this one can, but in only broken sentence fragments. As it consumes and absorbs infested victims, it keeps repeating the words live, more, and not enough. Later, it says dark, quiet and crushed. We learn that, prior to its manifestation as a complete Rareraremon, it arrived in our world in broken fragments, further scattered by the illegal dumping operation.
We even get a lovely flashback to tadpole-like crumbs of Rareraremon lurking in trash! But they're not happy that way. It isn't happy to exist at all. In an anime first for the Raremon line, the protagonists feel immediate sympathy for the rotting, malformed monster, and even guilt as they make a decision to destroy it as a merciful act, hoping its data can reincarnate into a better existence.
EPISODE 26: "CANNIBAL MANSION"
This episode has Angoramon and his human partner Ruli investigating a mansion whose original owners and many subsequent visitors are said to have mysteriously vanished. There, he finds the mansion occupied by a Digitamamon who happens to be his closest personal friend from the digital world. The two apparently spent many years together engaged in personal research, sharing a love of scientific discovery and the pursuit of knowledge. That kind of feels like a reoccuring theme in this series, even just from the episodes we've looked at here, and actually a major theme throughout much of the Digimon franchise.
This is the first time the egg-like Digitamamon has been given a scholarly, intellectual persona, and it makes sense for a being that supposedly compresses enormous amounts of data into its singularity-like inner form. His wording implies that he, too, is studying the nature of the mansion and its former inhabitants, and he's strangely eager to show Ruli the "interesting" things they left behind while Angoramon is caught up reading. Digitamamon mentions something "shaped like a small human" in a room upstairs, and we're to assume he means the dolls scattered around a child's bedroom, but Ruli also notices an odd, little pile of sand on the floor...
...And only narrowly escapes being pulled into Digitamamon's egg while her guard is down. Confronted by Angoramon, Digitamamon argues with a disturbing nonchalance that he was only going to "eat a little," and now we begin to know why people kept disappearing.
Digitamamon's full story is only more grim from there; content for a while to observe the mansion's inhabitants as an invisible phantasm, he was startled to find himself growing tangible enough to finally be seen and reflexively defended himself. Unfortunately, swallowing foes into its dark inner void is Digitamamon's go-to battle maneuver, which breaks an enemy Digimon down into its base data. When he tried to spit the humans back up, nothing but "sand" came out, and he felt what he considered their "souls" becoming part of him; the most satisfying feeling he ever experienced.
His hunger only worsened from there, irreversibly addicted to the high of consuming human "souls," increasingly forgetting everything else important to him and relying on the Mansion as nothing but a trap. The "sand" is an especially unsettling detail to me; there's nothing that could be but the trace silicon content of the human body, evidently the one thing Digitamamon's black void can't "digest."
The final confrontation between Digitamamon and Angoramon is framed as a disturbing and sorrowful one, as Digitamamon calmly and politely maintains that his opponent should please just step aside while he eats Ruli and her friends. His dialog grows simpler and blunter as their battle progresses, until he's only repeating that he's hungry, that he wants to eat, and his own best friend is reduced to striking him a lethal blow.
This is another explicit case of a Ghost Game Digimon murdering humans, but unlike Rareraremon's nearly mindless desperation or Arachnemon's megalomania, Digitamamon is a formerly intelligent, peaceful monster that unfortunately developed a debilitating new appetite, and more unfortunately lacks the human moral context to see anything wrong with appeasing that appetite. A harsher reminder than usual that Digimon are an entirely "alien" form of intelligence, no matter how anthropomorphic their behaviors or forms can be.
EPISODE 24: "TWISTED LOVE"
This exceptionally morbid episode begins with an inside view of a child's mouth as an unspecified Digimon forces it open to inject a single drop of a mysterious purple toxin, causing the as yet unnamed little girl to collapse in pain as her leg transforms into a tangle of thorny vines.
The Digimon considers this process a failure, and goes on to repeat the process with a series of other children, connected only by the fact that they've all interacted with the same teenage boy, Yuto. The longer the interaction, the more of the experimental fluid they're fed, converting more of their body mass to plant matter.
That Digimon is revealed to be Ajatarmon, a fairly new plant type Digimon characterized as a jungle warrior and named after a Scandinavian forest spirit. She's been trying to perfect a method of transforming a human into an Ajatarmon like herself, and testing on her perceived "rivals" to eliminate them one by one. But why?!
Ajatarmon first awoke in the human world through the programming of a small robot designed to assist at a greenhouse, where Yuto spends his spare time lovingly tending the plants and even affectionately speaking to them, which Ajatarmon mistook as the human speaking to her directly; encouraging her to "blossom brilliantly." She's completely in love, but she knows she's a very different kind of being from a human, and believes they can only be together if they can both be the same species.
When she finally reveals herself to Yuto and tells her story, she's only told that her plan is too dangerous and can't possibly work. Conceding that this is most likely true, she concludes that she should actually be the one to become a human, injecting herself with her own concoction.
Instead of transforming, her body immediately begins to wilt and deteriorate, and she begins to tear off pieces of her Digimon anatomy in an effort to look more and more like a person.
Ghost Game hasn't been my favorite Digimon series, but it is my favorite premise for a Digimon series, a novel way to explore its supernatural motifs and a rare break from the more cookie-cutter shonen tone of other Digimon series. It has also pushed its promises of "scarier" Digimon farther and farther over the course of its first year, graduating from tamer Scooby-Doo tier resolutions to the deadlier, more deranged villains that a lot of its child audience is already well accustomed to from other popular anime.
Many more episodes creatively reframe classic Digimon as spooky spectral phenomena; a Sirenmon who takes possession of a karaoke bar, a Dracmon that "edits" human beings in real life by editing their social media selfies, and rambunctious gremlin-like Zassoumon who multiply and grow as they absorb water. It's just a shame that so many stranger, more ghoulish Digimon happened to come out in the year before Ghost Game, only to make their anime debut in the much more forgettable 2019-2020 Digimon Adventure reboot. It's also a bit of a shame that only three Digimon lines, those of the heroes, were created for Ghost Game specifically, though we do have yet to see their remaining evolutionary stages, and there's no telling what future episodes may bring if this series sees renewal for another season.

Adele breaks Michael Jackson's record, becomes greatest music star
by	Sakshi
The six time Grammy Award winner Adele has done it again. She has broken her own record of success. Her album 21 amounted to break the record of the legend, Michael Jackson by becoming the bestselling album worldwide for two consecutive years. The International Federation of Phonographic Industry announced the 27 year old artist's achievement as a global star.
For the record breaking sales of 21, Billboard named it the top album of all times! Her song 'Hello', from the album 25 , was also named the Adult R&B Songs Chart at the Billboard. The album sold 3.38 million copies in the very first week, putting Adele at -the spot of the first ever million weeker star.
Its her story she's telling, maybe that's why its so relatable and appears so real. The language that she uses to communicate these emotions is so simple and global, and the pain in her voice simply adds to the magic trick. Terri Thomas, operations manager for adult R&B station KMJQ in Houston says, "She tells a story through song that so many people can relate to." Her success also might have something to do with the fact that she didn't go for online streaming as a medium of communication with her fans.

The end of the Cold War, along with the collapse of the Soviet Union and communist regimes in Eastern Europe, offers a unique opportunity to take a fresh look at an old field: Russian, East European, and Central Asian area studies. Formerly caught within the framework of the Cold War, new societies are emerging, struggling to come to grips with their pasts and forging their own unique futures.
The Russian, East European, and Central Asian studies minor, an interdisciplinary program developed jointly by the College of Arts and Sciences and the Charles F. Dolan School of Business, offers students an opportunity, from a base major either in international studies or one of the other academic disciplines, to develop a focus on this dynamic area of the world. Students are encouraged to engage with their interests and develop a dynamic cross-disciplinary minor. Study abroad options are also available.
To earn an 18-credit Russian, East European and Central Asian studies minor, students complete six three-credit courses. Three of these courses, from a range of seven disciplines, must be exclusively or substantially concerned with Russia and/or Eastern Europe. Two may have a component concerned with Russia, Eastern Europe, or Central Asia. At least three different disciplines must be represented. The final course, RECAS 310 Capstone Seminar: Current Topics in Russia, Eastern Europe and Central Asia is required of all minors in their junior or senior year. This seminar is either team-taught by a rotating group of faculty from several disciplines, or is an independent project with a faculty advisor.
Independent study and internships are encouraged, and can be substituted for any course with the approval of appropriate faculty and the program director. Students are also encouraged to apply for a junior semester or year abroad in Russia, Central or Eastern Europe, or Central Asia from a wide range of affiliated programs, including American Councils (St. Petersburg), the Consortium on International Educational Exchange (Prague, Budapest, St. . Petersburg, Yaroslavl, and Fairfield's own programs at St. Petersburg's Herzen University, the St. Petersburg State University of Economics and Finance, Pomor University (Arkangelsk), Cherepovets State University (Cherepovets), Immanuel Kant University (Kaliningrad), Kazakhstan, or Kyrgyzstan.
This interdisciplinary seminar, team-taught by faculty members from different disciplines or available as an independent project, focuses on current and changing developments in Russia, Eastern Europe, or Central Asia and covers culture, politics, business, and economics, enabling students to integrate their different disciplines in a case-study format. The course includes oral and written assignments in addition to a special seminar project, designed by students in close consultation with instructors. Open to juniors or seniors only. Three credits.
The College of Arts and Sciences at Fairfield University is home to a vibrant community of engaged faculty, dedicated staff and budding scholars devoted to the process of invention and discovery and excited by the prospect of producing knowledge in the service of others. Meet the dedicated members of our Russian, East European and Central Asian Studies Program.
How and why did you select your majors and minors?
I initially entered Fairfield with the intent of taking Russian as my required language, seeing it listed as one of three critical languages advertised by the University. My best friend growing up was from Saint Petersburg and therefore I grew up with a cultural awareness and interest in Russia. Nevertheless, I was initially steadfast on my history major and saw no other program that I wanted to take on instead. However, the minute that academic advising began at orientation over the summer and I met Professor David McFadden, the head of the Russian, Eastern European and Central Asian Studies Program and a faculty member of the history department, he handed me a flyer for the RECAS minor. I had heard about the recent conflicts in Ukraine, the increasing anti-Russian sentiments and realized I knew so little about something so significant. That is how I fell in love with the program and knew that I did not just want RECAS as my minor, but as my individually designed major (along with history). That is how important this subject is to me and I feel blessed to have been exposed to it from the start. This program has introduced me to the Russian language with Professor Elena Syssoeva, cultural discussion and political debates through frequent Russian Hours, and historical perspective through classes such as Professor Lenka Pichlíková-Burke's "Eastern and Central European History after World War II." Suddenly the news reports and current events all began making sense, giving even more meaning to this wonderful program.
The Russian, Eastern European and Central Asian Studies Program (RECAS) is blessed to have such an amazing group of professors. I have had the pleasure of working with Professor Marcie Patton and Professor Lenka Pichlíková-Burke in different courses and with Professor Elena Syssoeva and Professor David McFadden both in and outside of the classroom. From the beginning, I have been nurtured and advised very closely. Due to the relatively small size of the program, the faculty has the ability to frequently meet one-on-one with students and provide specialized attention to each unique situation. They have also provided me with events such as attending dinner with Dr. Stephen Cohen (a specialist on Russia and the current Ukraine Crisis), given me opportunities to start discussing study abroad, as well as lent support to resurrect the Russian Club here on campus. They have not only been wonderful mentors, leading me in the right direction, but have also given me the ability to be a leader, a particularly vital attribute in developing as a student and as a capable adult. Each professor, in this program specifically, wants their students to succeed and stresses the significance on the program not just related to a job after college, but its significance in the broader sense, related to our world today. They have taken the program beyond the classroom and beyond the pages of the textbook, exposing us to the bigger picture that surrounds us, making us not just Fairfield University students or Americans, but global citizens.
Although all of the courses that I have taken so far that are related to the RECAS program are outstanding, I have a special place in my heart for my Russian Language classes with Professor Elena Syssoeva. I went into Fairfield knowing that this would be the language for me, but I was unaware that it would become a true passion of mine. During my middle school and high school years, I had taken countless French courses. However, in the two semesters of taking Introductory Russian with Professor Syssoeva, I have learned more about the Russian language then I had ever learned in my eight years of French. This is a testament to not only the ability of Professor Syssoeva to teach and convey her knowledge, but also her patience and willingness to help her students. Never once did I feel intimidated by the language or intimidated of failing, all because of the wonderful environment created in this course. Russian, however, requires a lot of practice, dedication, focus, and willingness to learn, making it seem quite daunting for perspective students. However, this course has not only helped in developing my knowledge of the language but also developing my ability as a student. These skills learned within this course have become applicable to other course areas and the diligence I have developed within Russian has aided in my stamina in keeping up with my homework, my confidence in asking questions, and increased my love of learning.
In today's global world, it is important to understand other cultures, especially those of the rising world powers. Equally vital is to speak foreign languages, because contrary to the popular American belief, everyone in the world does not speak perfect English. Communication is our most valuable tool to develop, but in order to grasp a firm understanding of a different culture and language I knew I had to study abroad.
Why did you choose Russia?
I have always been fascinated with Russian history and Russia is an important country for an International Studies major and Politics minor. I took two Russian and Eastern European Studies (RES) courses at Fairfield, "Intro to Russian History and Culture" and "The History and Culture of Central and Eastern Europe since 1945," which inspired me to become a Russian and Eastern European Studies minor and to begin the exciting adventure to learn the language. Russian courses at Fairfield have Oral Practice Sessions (OPS) and Russian Hour cultural presentations on a weekly basis, which helped me greatly in my studies outside of class. After one year of Russian, I realized quickly that to learn the language, I needed to be in an environment where I was constantly using it outside the classroom such as at the Russian Hour sessions. My one year of Russian classes at Fairfield prepared me both linguistically and culturally to become integrated into Russian society and to succeed in the intensive three hours of Russian per day in the classroom.
What was a stand out experience of your time in Russia?
St. Petersburg was an imperial city, so I was constantly discovering new and beautiful palaces along my way, so it is hard to pinpoint one thing. One of my dreams as a child studying ballet though was to see the theater that so many of my heroes danced upon. It was a magical moment seeing "The Nutcracker" at the Mariinsky Theater. St. Petersburg also houses a National Circus that lets you take pictures with some of the animals that perform including kangaroos, snakes, and bears!
One of the most amazing experiences was being invited to my host family's dacha (summer cottage), which is a very important aspect of Russian culture. I felt welcomed into their culture, but more importantly I began to understand unique aspects of Russian culture I once overlooked or did not appreciate, such as the naming system. Every Russian name has a set nickname, but also an endearing form of the name. At Fairfield I decided to be called by my middle name, Maria, so I was Masha. One day my host mother called me Mashenka, which is like saying sweetie. I became so excited, because it meant that she saw me as part of her family and trusted me, something that is rather special in Russian culture. Also I realized that Russians place deep value in traditions passed over generations like serving tea in a samovar and learning to pick mushrooms. I even got to go mushroom picking with my host parents in a forest of birch trees. I felt like I was in a Russian fairytale and would find Baba Yaga's house!
How did you language skills improve?
What would have taken me a year to accomplish in a classroom, I was able to do in less than one semester. Personally reading in Cyrillic was very difficult for me, but it became a natural process abroad. I became very excited when I realized that I was no longer constantly translating in my head what people were saying to me or thinking first in English before I would respond; it became a natural process to understand and speak Russian. My greatest accomplishment was giving a native Russian directions to the nearest metro station and that she understood me perfectly!
This exhibit celebrates the 20th Anniversary of the Russian, East European and Central Asian Studies Program here at Fairfield University with an eclectic collection of decorative objects and books from Russia, the Czech Republic and Central Asia. In addition, the exhibit includes memorabilia from the program's 20 year history of lectures and events at Fairfield University. Contributors include Dr. David McFadden, History; Dr. Kathryn Nantz, Economics; Prof. Lenka Pichlikova-Burke, Lecturer in Russian, East European and Central Asian Studies; and Prof. Elena Syssoeva, Adjunct Professor of Russian Language. The exhibit runs from January 15 - May 15, 2015 at the DiMenna-Nyselius Library.
"The Ukrainian Crisis: Why a New Cold War?"
The Russian, East European, and Central Asian Studies Program has sponsored the Russian Film Series since 1996 to introduce classic and contemporary Russian films to the university community.
All films will be shown at 7 p.m.
A series of informal one-hour gatherings with focus on Russia were first established in the Spring of 2009 jointly by Russian, East European, and Central Asian Studies intern Timothy Carr and professor Elena Syssoeva. The idea behind the series was to broaden students' knowledge of Russian culture and its present day life through discussion of topics of interest to students.
The Russian Hours were also designed as a venue to present students' study abroad experiences in Russia and Eastern Europe. It served as a platform for Junior Faculty Development Program (JFDP) scholars to talk about their respective countries as well.
The series has successfully continued for the next three years and has been spearheaded by the three Teaching Assistants of the Russian language from the National Fulbright program: Elena Sergeeva (2009-2010), Nadya Shcherbenok (2010-2011) and Inna Pronicheva (2011-2012).
The three Fulbrighters have covered a wide range of topics chosen at Fairfield students' suggestions: education, media, films, sports, fashion, and music.
Fairfield University has strong ties to five universities in northwest Russia (Herzen University in St. Petersburg, Pomor University in Arkhangelsk, Kant University in Kaliningrad, Cherepovets University in Cherepovets and the St. Petersburg State University of Economics and Finance). The university is also linked to a variety of programs that allow for an expansion of relations between Russia, Eastern Europe, and Fairfield University.
Fairfield University has hosted the Russian-American Bankers' Forum, and the Dolan School of Business is engaged in a series of training programs and internships for Russian bankers and businessmen.
International Research and Exchanges Board (IREX) is an international nonprofit organization which specializes in education, independent media, internet development, and civil society programs in the United States, Europe, Eurasia, Middle East, N. Africa, and Asia. The Eurasian Undergraduate Exchange Program is part of IREX and sends first-, second-, and third-year undergraduates from countries throughout Eastern Europe to study in the U.S. for an academic year. For the past eight years, Fairfield has hosted students from this program.
Fairfield is a partner of the Junior Faculty Development Program (JFDP) which provides junior university faculty from Eurasia with the opportunity to attend classes, do research, and develop new curricular materials to be implemented in their home institutions. It also enables these scholars to enhance their teaching skills and to expand their fields of study. Fairfield has hosted scholars from Russia, the Newly Independent States, and Southeastern and Central Europe each year since 1999.

Sunrise Surprise Juice | Pineapple, Mango and Orange Juice!
Juicing is a part of my daily life and while I try to stay away from the sweet juices, my children still aren't ready for recipes like my liver-cleansing beet juice or even my spinach lemonade recipe. They like things sweet and I like to indulge them.
This Sunrise Surprise Juice is a delicious mixture of pineapple, orange and mango. It is quite satisfying and delicious and you really don't need much of it for it to perk you up and get you ready for the day (I usually drink about 4 to 5 ounces per day).
This apple, squash and cherry juice is another great way to start your day!
But my children AND my husband really like to "guzzle" their juices, so I usually will pour off enough for me for a few days (it makes about 24 – 32 ounces, depending on how powerful your juicer is – I use a Breville Juice Fountain) and then add some water to the rest of it for my family.
If you aren't going to water your juice down a bit, you are going to want to make sure to limit yourself to just a few ounces (no more than 6) per day, because while this juice is very healthy, it is also high in (natural) sugars.
Of course, the benefits of each of the ingredients should be pretty basic and are probably well-known, but just in case…..
So as you can see, my Sunrise Surprise Juice is not just about a sweet juice to start your day. It is really a way to keep your body healthy.
Process all ingredients according to the instructions for your juicer.

since I posted a video..
weather has kept us busy..
I love this video. I somehow doubt my handmade paper would hold up as well as yours. But I love the idea of using stencils that are not commercial. Unfortunately, I never think to use modeling paste (homemade, which is still good after two years). This was a fabulous video. I think you DID deserve that piece of chocolate. So good to see your home and studio were still in good shape, too.
Just watched this and once I get my billing out (!!), I'm going back into the studio and work with the kinds of textures you showed. Very good for my creative brain - thanks!
Great! I have to do that, too. This is incredibly inspiring and my head is now full of ideas. Currently I have an autumn holiday (I am a primary school teacher) and therefore finally have time to be creative.
Thanks for the wonderful video and many greetings!
A pleasure to watch ! Another fantastic video from you - the way you show us your techniques is beautiful! Thank you! Your sedateness in teaching is remarkable.
It's just like a medidative lesson always - You inspire me a lot! Your camera operator did a great job as well!
Such beautiful layers Cat- totally gorgeous with the pink paper , and love the tissue and handmade papers creation, too. Fun ways with the stencils, too !!! Thank you , sweetie, so good to have you back again.
bcurl, thanks so much and enjoy the techniques!!
Hi Dorthe, my dearheart! I am so glad you liked the little video, and I was just thrilled that the pink transferred from the newsprint so well! So happy you enjoyed the techniques.. sending big hugs to you, dear friend!!

Pictured: Harvard women's ice hockey team, the 2010 Beanpot champion.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- Junior Liza Ryabkina potted her fifth goal of the 2010 Beanpot Tournament 35 seconds into the second period and the marker stood as the game-winner as the No. 5 Harvard women's hockey team blanked No. 9 Northeastern, 1-0, in the Beanpot final Tuesday at Bright Hockey Center. The win marks the 13th time in program history the Crimson has hoisted the Beanpot trophy, and the first time since 2008.
Harvard now stands just one Beanpot title shy of Northeastern's 14 overall trophies. The last time the Huskies captured the tournament crown was 1998. Katey Stone, the Landry Family Head Coach for Harvard Women's Ice Hockey, collected her 10th career Beanpot title and now stands two wins shy of tying Laura Halldorson's all-time Division I record of 337 career victories.
After scoring four goals in a 5-0 win over Boston College in the first round and netting the game-winner in the finals, Ryabkina was unanimously selected as the Beanpot Most Valuable Player, becoming the first Crimson player to win the award since Sarah Wilson '09 claimed the prize in 2008. A pair of Beanpot shutouts earned freshman goalie Laura Bellamy the Bertagna Award as the tournament's top goaltender, marking the second time in three years a Harvard player has received the accolade after Christina Kessler won it in 2008.
After outshooting the Huskies, 12-5, in the opening stanza, the Crimson grabbed control of the flow of the game in the second, owning a 26-6 margin in shots in the middle period. More importantly, Harvard netted the only goal of the frame, as Ryabkina put Harvard ahead at 0:35. Ryabkina sent a pass into the slot from the left corner, allowing Randi Griffin to get a shot off. Northeastern goaltender Leah Sulyma stopped Griffin's attempt, but the shot created a rebound on the left side. Ryabkina picked up the puck and lifted it into the top corner of the net.
The Huskies upped their offensive efforts in the third, outshooting the hosts 16-6 in the period. Three Harvard penalties gave the visitors a number of good looks on net, but Bellamy stood firm, recording 16 saves to secure her second shutout in as many Beanpot games. The Crimson finished the game with a 44-27 edge in shots.
Harvard will begin a stretch of four road games to conclude the regular season at Rensselaer Friday, Feb. 12 at 7 p.m.

After a deeply disappointing 2017, Williams' new automotive has undergone more changes than most between seasons with the staff describing their new charger as 'significantly totally different' to its predecessor.
The Mahindra Maxx is a tough and hard passenger car from Mahindra for the tough and tough terrains of India. Base, LX, TX and Festara are the four primary variants of the Maxx. Though a macho automobile, the Maxx has engaging seats with elite cloth upholstery. The 2.1-litre four-cylinder direct injection turbo diesel engine is able to churning out sixty two bhp of energy at 4500 rpm and a maximum torque of 120Nm at 2000 rpm. It is mated to a 5-pace manual transmission for smooth rides even on the tough roads. Other Mahindra new vehicles in India that fall on this class are the Maxx Maxi Truck, Maxx Pick-Up and Maxx Pick-Up Chassis.
Alongside the principle storyline gamers will experience many random occasions as they discover the open world. These random occasions can embody public hangings, ambushes, hostage situations, travellers in need of assistance, shoot outs, and even animal attacks. After its launch, Red Dead Redemption received important acclaim with a mean rating of over 95% from the varied assessment web sites (corresponding to Metacritic and GameRankings). This makes it one of many highest-rated videos games that is out there for the PlayStation three and Xbox 360.
The sport heavily features the citizens of Springfield, the Simpson household, and Springfield itself. It will certainly not disappoint fans of the collection, often being thought-about the very best Simpsons sport to be produced and I couldn't agree extra. The immersive expertise that you would be able to count on from the game really captures the feeling of the 1930s in America (not that I lived then). I also actually loved the combination between weapon combat, melee combat, and even car fight since I'm always a player who loves the more direct strategy. The entire Hitman series has obtained optimistic critiques, making it an important, reliable recreation. While it lacks the open-world environment, many of the missions really feel like assassination aspect missions of GTA.
Starting with the original Prototype sport is the perfect approach to start your virus driven journey. The massive world that Prototype offers paired with the damaging skills that you simply possess make it great for people who simply need to run wild. True Crime: Streets of LA is without doubt one of the authentic video games like GTA and was launched in 2003. There can be a second release within the sequence (True Crime: New York) however the game is very lack-lustre compared to the original and best avoided. Ask any gamer about their favourite open world game and most of them will bear in mind Red Dead, a recreation that was nicely earlier than it's time. Before the likes of Skyrim, The Witcher and GTA V Red Dead Redemption was the king of the style.

hi all. I'm trying to build a GUI for my many different powershell scripts I have. Currently I'm trying to figure out how to take an input from a textbox in C# and make that to where it can be used in a powershell script. For instance, one script takes a list of employee logins and moves them to where they should be and assigned the correct group permissions. I'm trying to GUI this with radio buttons selected to determine what script runs.
or if C# is not the best language to build a gui for powershell what should I be using?
edit: yes I did google before I asked in here. I can set up a runspace, just need to know how to make a C# string into a powershell object.
Should a UserControl have a viewmodel?
