Boundary and particle number effects on the thermodynamic properties of trapped ideal Bose gases
Yee Mou Kao, D. H. Lin, Pin Han, Pi Gang Luan
The ideal noninteracting Bose gases trapped in a generic power-law potential in an any-dimensional space are studied. We present theoretical results of the corrections of thermodynamic properties due to finite particle number effects. The calculation uses the Euler-Maclaurin approximation to simplify the condensate fraction, and it also uses the Maslov index to discuss the boundary effect. Recently BEC (Bose-Einstein Condensation) has also been observed in a microelectronic chip; therefore, with a similar microstructure, we can obtain the effects of a rigid wall in a trap that have never been found before.

As a professional Vancouver wedding photographer, it gives me a lot of pleasure to use my passion to capture the fine details, the spirit and the emotion of each wedding and to ensure these precious moments are recorded forever.
Recently I had the privilege of taking photos for Arnie & Mansie on their wedding day. The time went very smoothly during my first meeting with Mansie where we discussed the wedding, the photography requirements and expectations, and throughout the wedding day itself. I immediately felt very comfortable taking pictures of them both. The wedding day began with photos with Mansie where she was getting ready with the help of her friends and her make-up artist. During this time I captured photos of her wedding dress, the preparations and took portraits of the beautiful bride and her lovely bridesmaids.
Following my time spent with the bride, I traveled to their garden where both the wedding ceremony and the reception were being held. The wedding was in traditional Hindu style and as I arrived I could hear the gentle Hindu music from the live band and feel the relaxed vibe as the food and table settings were being prepared and the flowers were being delicately arranged. While this was happening, I was capturing these moments by walking around, taking shots and documenting the preparations.
Later I joined Arnie in the house where he was getting ready with his family and friends. I took both reportage and portrait photos of the groom and his family and friends, taking care to capture each minute detail and to record these emotionally charged moments with family.
It is always incredibly special to be part of these moments where I see all of the generations of a family coming together to share their joy. As a wedding photographer, I understand how important it is to ensure in these moments that nothing is missed so I, therefore, have to be very adaptive to conditions of light, weather, places and people. All of these elements need to be carefully and artfully considered and decisions need to be made to ensure each shot is impeccable. When all of the preparations were almost done, I prepared myself for the bride's arrival by tracing the area where she would be walking and by taking samples shots to measure the lighting. During the ceremony, I was careful not only to capture the wedding vows, the exchange of rings, the first official kiss of the bride and groom, and the rituals that form part of a Hindu wedding but also to capture people's reactions, the people at the ceremony and everyone who was part of the wedding.
Every wedding that I capture brings a unique experience and Arnie and Mansie's wedding stands out to me as one full of warmth, happiness and laughter. All in all, this was another great experience and beautiful wedding that I was very happy to be a part of.


Early this month, Felicity Duncan questioned the value of "Big Deals". In particular, two made by 3G Capital – Kraft Heinz and AB Inbev. By year-end 2018, their market cap had fallen from previous heights by 50% and 43% respectively.
Vitaliy Katsenelson recently attributed value loss to huge premiums paid and practical difficulties faced in making acquisitions work. He's dead right but could they be "effects" of a much deeper "root cause"? Do most CEOs pursue the wrong goal, and have the wrong measures and incentives?
For many years, I believed management's only legitimate purpose was to maximise the value-of-the-firm (VOF) for shareholders. For a listed firm, the VOF is the market cap – number of shares issued multiplied by the share price.
Today, I agree with Jack Welch. Some years after his retirement in 2000, he said "maximising shareholder value is bunk … the dumbest idea in the world". If he really believed what he said is moot in my view but let's give him the benefit of the doubt.
Over a 40-year period, he and Jeff Immelt, the successor he chose, bought more than 2,000 companies. They took the asset base from $21bn to a height of $800bn in 2008 before GE's break-up started. In the process, they made themselves very rich indeed. Sadly many CEOs aped his approach and are still doing so.
Last year, GE's market value had fallen from a height of $500bn in 1999 – at that time the most valuable company in the world – down to $71bn. That's back to where it was in 1992. A fall of 86% and spectacular, massive value destruction. Possibly the biggest ever? Do the math and convert it to Rands. Jacob Z would never cope with articulating the number.
Doesn't that also mean that Jack and his chosen successor wasted their undoubted talents in pursuit of the wrong goal? If he really meant what he said, despite being lauded as the greatest manager of the 20th Century, shouldn't his real claim to fame be that he was an exemplar, not of managerial effectiveness, but for showing what bunk chasing shareholder value is? Even a classic example that supports Dunning Kruger's research into people behaving stupidly without knowing it?
The only valid measure of a manager's competence is a productivity ratio – a Resource in: Result out ratio – and fundamentally, the value arises from productivity of a firm's asset base. Especially the sales productivity of assets.
In the end, the long-term value of a firm derives from a focus on customers and productivity through its people. But throughout their tenure, Welch and Immelt, in the mould of most CEOs, focused primarily on growth by acquisition. Their key productivity measure was profitability of sales – not assets being managed. The operating margin achieved was never less than 20%. Not half bad you might think.
… and by 2018, Danaher, a company in its sector with only 15% of GE's asset base, was as highly valued as GE.
So, how does this link to 3G Capital, AB Inbev and Kraft Heinz? Relative ATOs amongst peer firms in the Food and Beverage sectors show once again how important a measure it is.
As you can see, Kraft Heinz and AB Inbev, because of huge premiums paid, languish way back in the field with their ATO and Cash ROAM returns. Unilever and Pepsi lead the pack and in sharp contrast to the bankers and accountants running 3G Capital, their prime focus is not on shareholder value and dancing in time to the tune and quarterly beat of bankers and analysts. It's on customers, their people, suppliers and society as a whole.
The level of Cash ROAM also has a big impact on the ultimate profit measure – economic profit after deducting a 20% cost-of-equity from Cash Profit after tax.
Once again Kraft Heinz comes last with an accumulated economic loss since 2014 of close to $30bn. Announcement of financials for 2018 have been delayed, so the situation will be worse I suspect.
However, on the upside, fundamental productivity is still healthy despite the firm's problems. Its Cash ROAM% on tangible assets has averaged close to 35% over four years. That's why the financial people running 3G focus on this sector. It is a very attractive one.
They follow the path "discovered" by strategy guru Michael Porter – if you monopolise your market, you get the power to set prices. An insight that made Porter very rich but one that businessmen have known since the days of the Pharaohs and why today's CEOs use each and every artifice they can to achieve it. Acquisitions and "orderly market arrangements", a euphemism for cartels, are favoured tactics.
As to AB Inbev, despite its low ATO, it has a Cash ROAM% of 9% on total assets and 40% on tangible assets. This enables it to gain a cumulative economic profit, despite a couple of loss years.
For every $1 of sales, AB Inbev generates a profit in cash of 40c. However, for most firms with a very high sales margin, unless it's based on fundamental productivities and not premium pricing, they create a protective umbrella for low-cost producers to enter the market. With a constantly low relative ATO, they sow the seeds of their own destruction.
Over time, the firms with higher relative ATOs will beat the ones who focus on achieving a higher ROS. It's a guarantee. Because high market share and high returns tend to go hand-in-hand, CEOs, encouraged by the bankers, want to do the big deals. However, market share and profitability are not a function of cause-effect – only a correlation.
You can form your own conclusions as to what really matters in the long run, but in the end, it all comes back to people. AB Inbev is run by a man who is not only an engineer but a banker – not a promising combination when he's backed by accountants focussed on cost-cutting and ways to lift prices. Their primary concern is numbers, not people.
There has to be a balance between people and numbers and a balance in numbers between Return-on-Sales (ROS) and Asset Turnover (ATO). To achieve it requires education and that seems rare in most firms if you judge them by the numbers they get. Financial ignorance is one of the biggest barriers of all to sustainable productivity.

'The Workshop' website
Gilad Ratman, Video Art
'The Workshop', a video art installation I shot for the artist Gilad Ratman, is a multi-channel site-specific installation at the Israeli Pavilion for the 55th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia.
The Workshop documents the journey of a community of people from Israel to Venice, through a non-linear presentation of video, installation, sound and a physical intervention in the fabric of the Pavilion itself. By breaking up the screen and the space of the pavilion Ratman meditates on the dichotomy of a surface and what lies beyond it. Considering Israel participation in a more political view, The Workshop's site-specificity by Ratman's art reflects on the Biennale as a Utopian model of nations' connectivity or as a world where transit can take place across national borders in hidden networks.
The project consisted of some very difficult shooting conditions - including a large cast and remote underground locations.
The caves sequences where an exceptional challenge - shot in real caves around Israel - some requiring shooting while literally crawling with no electricity.
For this propose I used the (then) new Canon C-300 with it's low light shooting capabilities and compact build.
For lighting the cave interiors we utilized as much Practical lights we could get - headlights and flashlights - which where augmented with large lightpads we could carry to the caves.

Great Reviews for 'The Workshop' at the 55th Venice Biennale. Here are sone highlights:
The Guardian includes "The Workshop" in its 10 of the best artists selection.
From The Independent "Review: 55th Venice Biennale Giardini, Venice":
"...The Israeli Pavilion is likewise fascinating. Artist Gilad Ratman has made a film of hippies tunnelling through the bowels of the earth and emerging into a gallery. They set up a workshop and mould clay into busts; faces take shape. The hippies claw at the eyes and mouths they have created, before burrowing microphones into the clay heads and howling strange incantations. Like a ship of fools, this is art made feral and disturbing..."

Who is McKayla Maroney? Larry Nassar Try to Kill McKayla Maroney? Truth Behind Her Shocking Claim
Piyush Tanwar
Did Larry Nassar try to kill McKayla Maroney at 15, Really? former Olympic gymnast McKayla Maroney has shared unbelievable shocking details about the amusement by gymnastic doctor Larry Nassar. Yes, absolutely we are also shocked after knowing this news. The Olympic gymnast shared that Nassar molested her and then tried to kill her allegedly.
At that time she was just 15 years old. McKayla Maroney shares that sometimes we athletes do some things that other normal people never do. Here is the complete information that you should know about it.
Who is McKayla Maroney?
McKayla Maroney revealed that she was just 15 when Nassar gave her a sleeping pill on the flight. The incident happened during the 2012 Olympic journey. She shared a statement in this regard "We never said we're being molested, but we would say, 'It's like we're being fingered.' We'd even say it was time to go get fingered by Larry. But we were 13 and didn't even know what being fingered was at the time. We were really young and naïve from living in a gym,".
McKayla Maroney's full name is McKayla Rose Maroney. She is an American retired artistic gymnast and singer. Even she was a member if the American women's gymnastics team. She has participated in the 2012 Olympics as well where she won a gold medal for the team and nation as well.
McKayla Maroney was born on December 9, 1995, and now she is 25 years old. However, she has taken retirement from gymnastics in the year 2016.
While Larry Nassar appeared in media in the year 2017 as a serial rapist and sex offender. The charges have been initiated by police on behalf of the case because he sexually assaults over 265 women and girls associated with the US gymnastics team. It is seriously shameful because the department had chosen him as a doctor to take care of players. Due to the charges, he was sentenced to life imprisonment.
On the other side, if we talk about the current place then we want to tell you. Now he is serving his sentence at a federal prison. Even we got another news that former team USA coach John Geddert also committed suicide when he was accused of abusing a young female gymnast.
The details about McKayla Maroney case have been confirmed by personality. Possibly she revealed this info because it was true. Nobody can share that type of sensitive news until the person suffering from the incident. Most probably, the sexual assault with McKayla Maroney affected her life and she can't forget it, even after 10 years. The remaining details will be confirmed once it comes in our knowledge.

The 50 Best TV Episodes of 2016 So Far: 31-40
By Lenny Burnham
We're halfway through the year, so I'm looking back on the best TV episodes of 2016 so far. From children's cartoons to prestige dramas, these are the strongest episodes of the year so far. Be sure to check out 50-41 on my list of the 50 Best TV Episodes of 2016 So Far.
40. Regular Show: "The Button"
Poor Benson. This episode used the simple sci-fi device of a mysterious button that everyone is forbidden to press to explore Benson's stressed mental state as a low-level manager trying to run the park when non of his employees really care.
39. Scandal: "Pencils Down"
This episode focused on the candidates prepping for a big debate, which gave us Olivia Pope, Mellie Grant and Susan Ross at their most active best. Things got even more intense for Olivia when she found out that Edison Davis is running for the Democratic candidacy.
38. UnREAL: "Insurgent"
UnREAL season two is even more focused on the relationship between Rachel Goldberg and Quinn King than last year, with great results. In this episode, Rachel puts her renewed friendship with Quinn on the back burner in pursuit of the position of showrunner of Everlasting.
37. Bob's Burgers: "Bye Bye, Boo Boo"
One of the reasons Bob's Burgers is such a treasure is how earnest it is in comparison to other adult-aimed cartoons that cynically make fun of everything. This episode is a perfect example. Louise Belcher tries her best to hide her obsession with former boy band member Boo Boo before finally realizing it's okay to like the silly things she likes.
36. The Grinder: "Full Circle"
The Grinder was cancelled after only on season, but it went out on a great note with this strong finale. Dean Sanders and Stewart Sanderson worked a case that involved an elaborate revenge plot and a secret twins twist. It showed off how good The Grinder was at being silly while still keeping the characters and relationships genuine.
35. Orange is the New Black: "We'll Always Have Baltimore"
Orange is the New Black finally gave us backstory on Maritza Ramos with this episode. For once, the backstory was more funny and charming than tragic. Meanwhile in the present, we saw how Maritza is constantly underestimated despite being very savvy. The other main plotline with Joe Caputo going to a prison industry conference was a disgusting look at how little thought for-profit prisons give to inmates well-being.
34. Silicon Valley: "Bachman's Earnings Over-Ride"
This episode was this season's big pay off to the relationship between Richard Hendricks and Erlich Bachman, which is arguably the core relationship of Silicon Valley. After losing everything, Erlich was humbled and gave up his dignity for the sake of Pied Piper.
33. Veep: "C**tgate"
Selina Meyer struggled in this episode with a decision about whether or not to bail out her boyfriend's bank. Meanwhile, Jonah Ryan and Dan Egan had an incredible subplot that started with Jonah being hilariously counterproductive during a focus group and ended with him and Dan having a moment of victory via completely turning on Selina. Throw in Catherine Meyer's coming out to Selina after many failed attempts to get her attention and you have one of the funniest episodes of the year so far.
32. Silicon Valley: "To Build a Better Beta"
In this episode, Pied Piper launched their beta and for once we got to see things mostly go well for them. In a great subplot, Dinesh Chugtai tried to prove to Bertram Gilfoyle that he has friends. This wonderfully collided with the subplot about Gavin Belson trying to get information on Pied Piper's beta when they caught him spying and Dinesh proudly declared, "That's not on of my friends. I have no friends!"
31. Bob's Burgers: "Glued, Where's My Bob?"
The 100th episode of Bob's Burgers really pulled out all the stops in reminding me how much I care about these characters, without drifting into an overly saccharin tone. This hilarious episode featured a fantastic musical number and put the incredible relationship between Bob Belcher and Louise Belcher front and center.

Frostbite is caused by exposure to cold temperatures for prolonged periods, which causes damage to the skin and underlying tissues.
Areas with poorer circulation are most prone to frostbite, such as the nose, ears, hands and feet. When frostbite extends to the blood vessels and damages them, the affected area may not recover and amputation is often necessary.
Look for signs and symptoms of hypothermia and treat first (see section on Hypothermia above). Call 9-1-1 immediately if frostbite is severe or if there are signs and symptoms of hypothermia.
Bring the victim into a warm, dry place.
Remove tight jewellery if fingers are affected, or socks and boots if feet are affected. Remove any wet clothing to prevent further cooling.
If medical assistance is close by: wrap the affected area with dry gauze, separating fingers and toes.
If medical assistance is not close by, you will need to rewarm the affected areas.
Soak affected areas in warm water for 20 to 30 minutes (do NOT use hot water). Keep changing the water as it cools. If the victim's face is affected, apply warm compresses one after another. Pain, color changes and changes in sensation will occur as the tissue warms. Warming is complete when the affected tissue is soft again and full feeling returns.
Once fingers and toes have thawed, wrap them in dry gauze, being careful to separate the digits.
Move the injured tissue as little as possible.
If the frostbite is severe and affects more than one area, give warm fluids (NOT alcohol) to warm the victim and replenish fluids.

District 6 trustees approve bids to renovate two schools District awards construction projects. LINDA CONLEY
Spartanburg School District 6 trustees approved construction bids to renovate two schools Monday, but the administration will work with the contractors to reduce the cost. Renovation projects at Woodland Heights and West View elementary schools will be performed by Argo Construction Co. of Greenville, the low bidder at $9.37 million. However, the bid was $276,123 over the estimated cost. Trustee Wendell Lee voted against approving the bid. "We are using all of the money we have," Lee said. "If something else comes up, where are we going to get the money?" District 6 Superintendent David Eubanks said some adjustments could be made on the purchase of equipment, which could save $475,000. He said the administration and the Building and Grounds Committee will work with the contractors to make adjustments to the projects. The expansions, which will nearly double the size of the two schools, are part of the board's plans to reorganize the district to allow conversion of Blackstock Elementary School to a middle school. Construction will begin on the sites as soon as school is out for the summer in early June. This fall, students who attend Woodland Heights will move to Blackstock Elementary School during the construction. Both projects are expected to be completed by Aug. 1, 1994. West View Elementary School will have more than 50,000 square feet in new construction and about 10,300 square feet will be renovated. The current school is about 48,000 square feet. The West View project will include construction of a combination cafeteria and auditorium, two new music rooms, 14 classrooms, a media center, and specialty rooms for speech, resource and library classes. After the expansion, the school will be able to accommodate up to 828 students. But it can be expanded for as many as 1,200 students, if necessary. The current school enrollment is about 525. Woodland Heights will be expanded to accommodate up to 550 students and eliminate the use of portable classrooms. The school's present enrollment is about 400. The expansion project calls for renovation of the current school building, about 27,000 square feet, and 29,000 square feet of new construction. In other action, the board awarded the sale of bonds to Trust Company Bank of Georgia at a 3.15 percent interest cost. WOODHT.S


The Noël Coward play Blithe Spirit is currently playing at the Princess of Wales theatre in Toronto as part of the 2014-2015 Mirvish season. I attended the evening performance on March 11th.
The production stars Dame Angela Lansbury as Madame Arcati, Charles Edwards as Charles Condomine, Charlotte Parry as Ruth Condomine, Melissa Woodbridge as Elvira Condomine, Susan Louise O'Connor as Edith the Maid, Simon Jones as Dr. Bradman, and Sandra Shipley as Mrs. Bradman. The musical interludes were sung by Christine Ebersole. The director is Michael Blakemore.
The plot revolves the visit of a medium (Madame Arcati) to the home of a successful author (Charles Condomine) and the return of Mr. Condomine's late wife, Elvira, as a spirit.
The star of the show of course is Dame Angela Lansbury, at the age of 89, playing Madame Arcati. Her performance was outstanding, and she moved around the stage with apparent ease. When she was going into a trance, she was prancing around the stage to great laughs and enjoying making the audience laugh.
The other star of the performance is Charles Edward, familiar to many for his appearances in Downton Abbey as Mr. Gregson. He performance as a husband who has to deal with both his current wife and the spirit of his late wife and the the fact that his current wife cannot see – or hear – the spirit. His portrayal allowed for a good deal of laughter as he would consistently answer his late wife, while irritating his current wife, Ruth.
Sarah Louise O'Connor's Edith was also amusing. Especially when she is cleaning the breakfast table and leans over a chair to pick up the tray. Not only did her feet have to leave the floor to do this, she also picked up the chair along with the tray – causing the audience to break out in laughter.
The cast is well rounded and excellent. There was laughter from start to finish.
Dame Angela is sensational and shows how excellent an actress she really is.
Blithe Spirit runs until March 15th, 2015 at the Princess of Wales. Tickets can be purchased through mirvish.com, but some of the remaining shows are totally sold out.

Steep, low volume with an unrelenting gradient: slightly bonkers. Scout the run on the walkin and then run the bits that take your fancy. The usual putin is in the middle of a two-tier fall about a km from the road (the larger first tier has a practically non-existent landing and is barely ever run). Note that it is possible to start higher up, if you're looking for an adventure!
There is a sweet spot between the river being too low to actually get down, and so much water that it becomes slightly crazy.
Park by Public Toilet Falls on the Mawdach. The Gamlan joins just downstream so walk down the road to the bridge and then walkin up river left. The usual putin is at a two tier fall about 1km upstream, takeout at the confluence.

The Group's GatedTalent division has seen a continuing acceleration in revenue, since its announcement on 5 November 2018, as member services have come on line. The Board is pleased to report that a larger proportion of Divisional revenue is subscription based than had previously been anticipated, increasing the Group's ability to deliver sustainable higher quality earnings. While it still expects the Division to be loss making in 2019 as a whole, the Board now expects that the business will make a contribution and become cash generative in the final quarter of 2019.
Commenting on the start to the year, Jason Starr, Chief Executive of Dillistone Group, said: "We are pleased with progress across the Group late in 2018 and into this year, not only with the significant award but also by the progress at GatedTalent. Indeed, we have seen third party data which suggests that GatedTalent has overtaken the previous market leader, Bluesteps, in terms of website visitors and engagement.
"The increasing conversion of GatedTalent from a platform generating revenue largely from recruiter transactions to one increasingly generating revenue from member subscriptions has proven highly successful. With member subscriptions growing rapidly, the platform is giving us increasing options in how we position our FileFinder executive recruiting CRMs."

Baldur's Gate 3's simultaneous turn-based combat is a blessing for multiplayer
By Wes Fenlon published 2 March 20
Divinity: Original Sin 2 was a great co-op experience, but Baldur's Gate 3 looks like it'll be even better.
Some nights, my Divinity: Original Sin 2 co-op time was spent in a single fight. Trying to align the schedules of three adults to play any game, let alone a hundred-hour RPG, can feel like a minor miracle sometimes. But my friends and I were dedicated to finishing this game, even with a three-hour time difference (me in California, them on the east coast) limiting our potential play time. For about three months, we hopped into a Discord chat every night we could and quested our way through Original Sin 2. I'm excited to do the same for Baldur's Gate 3, and relieved that it probably won't take as long, this time.
Not because Baldur's Gate 3 is going to be a shorter RPG, though. I don't know how long it'll be compared to Original Sin 2, but Larian seems to be swinging for the fences, and I feel safe assuming it'll be a gigantic game. Larian is doing something a little different with the turn-based combat this time that should make all the difference.

- Our big Baldur's Gate 3 cover story
- How Baldur's Gate 3 compares to Divinity: Original Sin 2
- How Larian is keeping Baldur's Gate 3 weird
- I love that Baldur's Gate 3 makes you roll for big decisions
In both the Divinity: Original Sin games, every character in a fight, friend or foe, gets a dedicated turn. This is tracked with a turn order timeline along the top of the screen, which does play into the combat strategy in some interesting ways. It lets you focus down and kill enemies who may have a turn coming up sooner, or hit them with attacks that delay when they'll get to move. I really like the layer of strategy this brings to combat. But the turn-order design also means that, in co-op play, you spend most of a fight doing nothing, just waiting for your turn.
And those fights can be long. Sometimes a dozen enemies get pulled into an encounter across a large area, so my friends and I would spend an hour tactically thinking our way through them. It was mostly fun, but still led to plenty of "Oh, it's my turn? Oops" moments that just added to the delay. I'm relieved that for Baldur's Gate 3, Larian came up with a speedier solution.
The new "simultaneous turn-based" system isn't exactly a revolutionary idea. You get a turn and move all your units, and then the enemy AI takes a turn, and so on. Plenty of turn-based games have used this setup over the years. But they're rarely multiplayer, which is why this is a big deal coming from Original Sin 2. In Baldur's Gate 3, all four co-op partners will be able to move their characters at the same time, take actions, then end the turn and let the AI get mean.
I'm psyched for the time saving this promises, but I also think it's going to make multiplayer more fun, too. In Divinity, my friends and I would occasionally reload when it felt like someone had picked a story path we didn't want to go down—Steven, you know what you did and you should still feel bad—but for the most part we rolled with whatever happened. In combat, we'd talk about who had the best ability to use with what enemy, and that coordination is going to be way more important in Baldur's Gate 3, when we can take our turns in any order.
Honestly, a lot of the fun of Larian's games is scrambling to find a solution when shit goes completely wrong. Simultaneous turn-based combat will taunt each of us to jump the gun and move too quickly before talking out a plan. Maddening mistakes in every fight? That's the stuff.
"It works really well in singleplayer but it works really, really well in multiplayer, because you're constantly discussing combos, and that was the thing we were looking for," says Larian founder Swen Vincke. I joked that implementing this sounded like a nightmare for the programmers, which got a smirking, "Yeah, they've been busy for some time already."
Vincke told me about a few other upgrades to the multiplayer system they've made since Original Sin 2. You'll now be able to see what choices your co-op partners are hovering over in dialogue scenes, so you can try to sway each other in the moment. Baldur's Gate 3 will, undoubtedly, be one of the best argument generators of the year.

Q: Store words in char array C language I have this code:
char *pch;
pch = strtok(texto," ");

while (pch != NULL)
{
  pch = strtok (NULL, " ");
}

My "texto" variable have something like "This is my text example".
And i need to store each value comming from pch in while, in an array of characteres, but i really dont know how to do it.
I need something like that, each value in array will have a word, so:
"This is my text example".
Array[0][20] = This;

Array[1][20] = is;

Array[2][20] = my;

Array[3][20] = text;

Array[4][20] = example;

The pch in while having all these words already split, but I don't know how to add into a char array, or how I will declare him too.

A: Consider the following example:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

#define MAXSTRLEN 20
#define MAXWORD 6

int main(void)
{
    char arr[MAXWORD][MAXSTRLEN+1] = {0};
    char str[] ="This is my text example";
    char *pch;
    int i = 0;
    pch = strtok (str," ");
    while (pch != NULL && i < MAXWORD)
    {
        strncpy(arr[i++], pch, MAXSTRLEN);
        pch = strtok (NULL, " ");
    }
    return 0;
}

A: This should work. Use strcpy to copy pch to character array.
char str[] ="This is my text example";
char *pch;
int i = 0;
pch = strtok (str," ");
char a[10][20];
while (pch != NULL)
{
  strcpy(a[i++], pch);
  pch = strtok (NULL, " ");
}

And as @stackptr has suggested dont use strtok and instead use strtok_r . For more info on this.

Pink Tank – Slightly damaged tank
Last checked: Dec 10th, 2020 | By: Michal Lebl
David Černý is one of my favorite artists. His installations can be found in many places around the world, but the treasure trove of them can be located in Prague. The one in the picture has a long story… In 1991, when the Russian troops were finally leaving Czechoslovakia, David Černý and a group of art students painted the Russian tank pink. This tank had been standing on a pedestal and symbolizing for generations that it was only Russians who liberated Czechoslovakia from Nazi Germany (even though it was also Americans who liberated the west part of the country). On top of that, it was Russian tanks who came in 1968 to crush the so-called "Prague spring" and threw this country back into a totalitarian rule – Czechs simply did not like the Russian tank statue…
So, this act was qualified as vandalism and the tank was painted back green. However, it did not take long and the tank was pink again. And finally it was moved to the military museum – however, it stayed painted pink. You can see the story of its use at the 20th anniversary of Russians leaving the country here.
David Černý became quite a renowned artist and as a reminder of this story he placed the piece of the tank close to the place where the original tank was standing. You can make a point to locate all pieces of his work displayed in Prague, it would make for a nice trip through town. Links [1] or [2]

My first 2017 finish....a Halloween quilt....am I early or late is the question?
To continue with the 2016 Theme of Sewing my Stash, this past October, I rummaged through my precut bookcase and found one remaining Halloween charm pack. It was Monster Bash by Moda Fabrics I had bought to use as a backup option for quilt I made a client called Trick or Treat Quilt. However, I eventually found the original charm square pack she had requested like the original I had made.
I also pulled some stash for background, Essex Linen in Natural, and added a few leftover Riley Blake Lost & Found layer cake cuts from my Halloween Checkmate Quilts.
This block is suuuuper easy to make using Material Girl's tutorial HERE.
Even Button became interested and very involved. He loved "flipping" the pieces.
And he was so determined that we finish the quilt, he helped me with the piecing on the machine since he was determined to have it finished by the end of the weekend. We both agreed we liked the thin black with wider linen borders to make it larger.
I didn't have a good amount of yardage I liked for the backing, so I did purchase some fabric from Joann's. We chose this Witches on Brooms on a gray background.
I was skeptical when I brought it home because I realized there weren't any gray blocks on the front, but went with it because I have no plans as of this moment to make another Halloween quilt since we currently have five. I then changed direction from the original orange/brown dot fabric for the binding and pulled this black and white dot from my stash.
I have to say that I actually liked the gray background now. The white and black spiderweb blocks read that same tone.
I REALLY enjoyed quilting on the linen. In the past, I've been a bit frustrated that my quilting hasn't "shown" up and sorta blends in. But the Essex linen played nicely.
I origianlly had intended to do spiderweb blocks and only did one small corner and changed direction with the more floral center. The border is a wavy triangle all around.
I love that it will blend right in our more formal room, we jokingly call The Library.
I think it will bring in some color for Halloween?
The best part? When I finished the binding and presented it to Button?
His response was "WE made that mom! Great job team!" with a double high five.
He makes my day in an instant!
This is just darling! A very classy Halloween quilt, indeed.
Thanks! That was what I was going for...understated!
Definitely early for Halloween! I'm impressed that anyone is that organised!!!
Haha! Laaaate! Started it in October, but I knew it might not get finished. Once I start, I make sure I finish even if I'm several months late/early!!!
What a fun project! And your pillows are adorable!
That is just adorable!! Thanks for the inspiration! I have pre cuts that I really, really need to use and this is a great idea!

Vote disbands Downtown Partnership in St. Joseph
An organization that's aided in reviving St. Joseph's downtown district for the past 21 years will soon be saying goodbye.
Posted By: Brooke Anderson
(ST. JOSEPH, Mo.) An organization that's aided in reviving St. Joseph's downtown district for the past 21 years will soon be saying goodbye.
The Downtown Partnership voted to disband following a meeting on Thursday. Rhabecca Boerkircher, executive director of the Downtown Partnership, said the decision came after City Council cut the Partnership's funding by $18,000 for the 2019-2020 fiscal year.
"The council did give us a major reduction in funding this year and that was a deciding factor because, after the first of the year, we just didn't have the funds to continue," Boerkircher said.
She added that all of the downtown groups (Downtown Community Improvement, Downtown Association, Downtown Firsts, Downtown Review Board, and Downtown Partnership) were discussing ways of becoming more unified, but that it ultimately didn't work out.
"I think [the groups] were all going to try and come in under the Partnership, and just restructure the Partnership into becoming a membership organization," Boerkircher said. "There are so many groups downtown, so they decided that they would try and bring everybody together under one umbrella."
However, downtown business owner Brian Myers, owner of The Tiger's Den, said he believes the vote was the right decision.
"All these successes that all of the businesses have had in our downtown were done without the Partnership. So, the Partnership dissolving, I think it means we're moving in the right direction," Myers said.
The Downtown Partnership was formed 21 years ago as a sort of 'guide' to the Downtown area. Since then, Boerkircher said the agency developed into a group whose mission was to revitalize the neighborhood.
"I cannot go anywhere without people coming up to me unsolicited, and say 'downtown's looking good. You guys are doing a great job. You know, things are really good downtown right now,'" Boerkircher said.
Though Myers said he disagrees, stating he feels the Partnership was formed to hire an executive director, but that the position hasn't had any sort of direction over the past few years.
"I don't think the Downtown Partnership, from its inception, had goals and directions that were able to be followed," Myers said.
Through the years, Boerkircher said the Downtown Partnership has been involved in getting more housing in the downtown area, making the neighborhood more pedestrian-friendly, putting in historic street lamps, forming the Sculpture Walk and getting the murals painted.
"There's just been a tremendous amount of progress that we've made downtown," Boerkircher said. "Actually, to tell you the truth, it's been in a short amount of time. If you go to other communities and talk about their downtown, it's taken them a lot longer to get to the point that we're at."
When asked how the Partnership's responsibilities would be handled in the future, Boerkircher said it's a little too early to tell.
"Well, you know, this just happened. All of the groups I'm sure are going to get together and talk about how they're going to handle their individual needs moving forward," Boerkircher said.
KQ2 reached out the other groups downtown but they declined interviews. Cris Coffman with Downtown Firsts issued a statement saying only that the board members are looking forward to what the future brings for the downtown neighborhood.
Boerkircher said the vote to disband the group goes into effect on October 1st.

Colts' Vinatieri gets new deal, chance to set scoring record
By MICHAEL MAROTFebruary 23, 2018
FILE - In this Thursday, Dec. 14, 2017 file photo,Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri (4) kicks a field goal from the hold of Rigoberto Sanchez during the first half of an NFL football game against the Denver Broncos in Indianapolis. Adam Vinatieri has signed a one-year contract extension with the Indianapolis Colts. And at 45 he could break the NFL's career scoring record next season. Financial details were not immediately available Thursday, Feb. 22, 2018 but he made $3 million last season. (AP Photo/Darron Cummings, File)
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NFL's oldest player is going to try to break the league's career scoring record.
If Adam Vinatieri gets his way, it might not be the only record to fall.
On Thursday, the 45-year-old kicker signed a one-year deal to stay with the Indianapolis Colts — a deal he insists may not be his last.
Financial details were not immediately available, though the deal is believed to be in the neighborhood of last season's $3 million salary. Vinatieri also noted during a conference call that he will receive a $250,000 bonus if he makes 88 percent of his field goal attempts next season after missing barely missing out on a bonus for making 90 percent in 2017.
But money isn't the reason Vinatieri returned. He is playing well, wants to win and needs 58 points to surpass Morten Andersen as the league's top scorer.
"I know 57, 58 points away is definitely within reach this year if I stay healthy and all that," said Vinatieri, who has scored 2,487 points. "I really wanted to break that record wearing a Colts helmet where I've played the majority of the years in my career now."
Vinatieri made his intentions clear late last year that he wanted to play a 24th pro season and his preference was to stay in Indianapolis, where he has developed deep roots since joining the Colts as a free agent in 2006.
General manager Chris Ballard quickly let Vinatieri know the team wanted him back. The combination made Indy's first major offseason move pretty simple.
"This process was substantially easier than it was maybe a couple years ago," Vinatieri said. "I know when Chris and I had conversations after the season I expressed to him how if everything was moving in the right direction and everything was going to get taken care of, how much I would like to be here and continue my career here. He expressed to me that he also wanted me to keep playing here. So the process was pretty easy."
Vinatieri acknowledged hiring Frank Reich as the new coach also helped persuade him to come back.
Reich takes over a team that went 4-12 in 2017 and played without Andrew Luck the entire season. The quarterback is still rehabbing from surgery he had on his throwing shoulder 13 months ago.
The good news is Reich knows he can count on the best clutch kicker in league history.
Vinatieri earned his reputation by making two Super Bowl-winning kicks with the New England Patriots.
But his legacy runs much deeper. He won three Super Bowls with the Patriots, a fourth championship with the Colts after the 2006 season and nearly added a fifth despite finishing the 2009 season on injured reserve.
Patriot fans also remember Vinatieri for making two field goals in a driving snowstorm — one to force the overtime, the other to win it — in the infamous "Tuck Rule" playoff game that helped New England win its first Super Bowl title. He rekindled those images in December when he made a long extra point to help force overtime in a blizzard at Buffalo.
Vinatieri is the last active player from NFL Europe, and he has been around long enough to remind reporters he once tackled Herschel Walker.
But the Colts are more concerned with productivity than records and so far, they've seen no indication Vinatieri is slowing down.
"Adam is one the best players in NFL history and we are excited to keep him in Indianapolis," Ballard said in a statement. "He continues to play at a high level and his experience and production are valuable assets for our team. Adam is the consummate pro and a key leader in our locker room."
He needs nine field goals to pass Gary Anderson for second all-time and 36 to break Andersen's career record of 565.
If he sticks around a few more years, as he suggested he might, Vinatieri won't just be chasing Anderson and Andersen.
He also would be within striking distance of surpassing George Blanda as the oldest player to ever play in the NFL at 48 years, 109 days. Vinatieri would break the mark if he plays in the 2021 season opener.
"Less concerned about that one," Vinatieri said, chuckling. "I guess I'll take these one year at a time and see where it ends up. I would anticipate if I can stay healthy and be productive, I can anticipate catching up to Morten midseason or thereabout, and I guess at the end of the year I'd be 46. I'm not putting anything out of reach."

Evaluation of changes in pediatric emerg...
Evaluation of changes in pediatric emergency department utilization during COVID-19 pandemic
Tuygun N., KARACAN C. D. , Göktuğ A., Çağlar A. A. , Tekeli A., Bodur İ., ...More
Archives de Pediatrie, vol.28, no.8, pp.677-682, 2021 (Journal Indexed in SCI Expanded)
Doi Number: 10.1016/j.arcped.2021.09.014
Title of Journal : Archives de Pediatrie
Keywords: COVID-19, Emergency, Pandemic, Pediatric
© 2021Background: During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic period, the use of emergency services with pediatric non-COVID patients has decreased considerably. We aimed to examine whether there was a change in the demographic data, triage profile, causes, management, and cost of pediatric emergency department (PED) visits of non-COVID patients during the pandemic period. Methods: This study was a retrospective, single-center, observational comparative study that was conducted at the PED. Patient records were examined during "the pandemic spring" and the same period of the previous year. Patient demographics, waiting time, and outcome of the PED visit were analyzed in the entire population of children admitted to the PED during the study period, whereas more precise data such as the reason for PED use, duration of symptoms, urgency levels according to the Emergency Severity Index (ESI), final diagnosis, management, and cost of patient care were analyzed in a sample of admitted patients. We used the chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, and Mann–Whitney U test for statistical analyses. Results: A total of 62,593 PED visits occurred. During the pandemic period, PED visits showed a decrease of 55.8% compared to the previous year. Patients included in the sampling study group were selected using a systematic random sampling method. The median waiting time during the pandemic period was significantly shorter than the previous year (median 14 min [IQR: 5–32] vs. median 5 min [IQR: 2–16]; p<0.001). The median duration of symptoms was 1 day (1–2) in both groups. Emergency Severity Index (ESI) levels I, II, and III showed a significant increase (27.7% vs. 37.3%) in triage scoring compared to levels IV and V (72.3% vs. 62.7%) during the pandemic period (p<0.001). The median cost per patient during the pandemic period was statistically higher compared to the previous year ($19.57 [19.57–40.50] vs. $25.34 [31.50–52.01]; p<0.001). Overall costs during the pandemic period had a 1.6-fold decline. Conclusion: We highlighted the changes in an ordinary PED profile during an extraordinary period. A shift in ESI levels in a more emergent direction was observed. While the number of nonurgent patients, especially those with infections, decreased, the rates of surgical cases, acute neurological and heart diseases, home accidents, and poisoning increased relative to the pre-pandemic period.

Q: Grouping similar objects in web cache (.NET)?
*

*I have a bunch of objects all of one class which I want to store in the web cache.

*There could be a few hundred of these objects.

*I want objects to have their own individual expiry times, and expire from the cache individually.

*I want to be able to tell how many of these objects are in the cache, and iterate over these objects alone (regardless of other types in the cache).

Initially I thought about storing a generic collection in the cache, and just inserting the objects into the collection when needed.  This is nice and tidy, and would make iteration easy. However, this wouldn't allow each of the objects to expire individually (the whole collection would expire).  I suppose I would have to create my own expiry mechanism and 'garbage collection' in this case.
My second thought was to just store each of the objects as first class citizens of the cache.  This would obviously allow them to expire individually, but seems a bit messy.  How to iterate over them?  Perhaps just iterate over the whole cache, and look for the right types (not sure this would work), or by using a key prefix. It would be the easiest I suppose, but doesn't seem ideal.
I guess what I really want is a way to group the cache items together, but for them to remain cache item.  Something like a sub-cache I suppose.
Can anyone suggest the best way forward?

A: You could create a wrapper class and reference the cached items that way.
Example:
public interface IExample
{
    string FirstProperty { get; set; }
    string SecondProperty { get; set; }
}

public class OriginalClass : IExample
{
    public string FirstProperty { get; set; }
    public string SecondProperty { get; set; }
}

public class CachedClass : IExample
{
    //initialize this somewhere
    private OriginalClass Wrapped { get; set;}

    public string FirstProperty
    {
        get
        {
            return Cache["FirstProperty"];
        }
        set
        {
            Wrapped.FirstProperty = value;
            Cache["FirstProperty"] = value;
        }
    }

    public string SecondProperty
    {
        get
        {
            return Cache["SecondProperty"];
        }
        set
        {
            Wrapped.SecondProperty= value;
            Cache["SecondProperty"] = value;
        }
    }
}

You would need to add some additional logic to check if the cache is empty, but you get the idea.

A: I've done something similar to this, by implementing a CacheManager class that manages a group of related items in the ASP.NET cache.
Each CacheManager instance uses a unique prefix prepended to the cache key that identifies items it manages.  Thus you can identify and count items in a group by iterating over the whole cache and looking for your unique prefix.  (However this could be costly, so if you want to frequently iterate over items in a group you might want to look at a different solution, such as a collection of weak references to cached items in the group).
Items in a group are stored individually in the cache so can have their own expiry times (though my implementation gives the same expiry time to each item in a group).
I also optionally implement a CacheDependency on a single cache key that is unique for each CacheManager.  This makes it possible to easily clear all items in a group from the cache.

Contra Costa deputies go for a swim with suspect during chase

NORTH RICHMOND — A K9 officer and his dog had to swim after a suspect last week, after the man reportedly jumped into Wildcat Creek during a foot chase.
The incident began around 6 p.m. on March 10, when a sheriff's deputy was called to the 1900 block of Sixth Street in North Richmond, to a report of several people attempting to break into a vacant apartment building there, according to the police report.
Once he arrived, the deputy attempted to contact a 35-year-old man, later identified as Richmond resident Bryan Gomez, and an unidentified woman. The deputy asked Gomez whether he was breaking into a building, to which Gomez replied, "Don't (expletive) touch my girlfriend," and then took off running, the police report says. Early in the chase, the suspect jumped into Wildcat Creek and the deputy ordered his K9 to apprehend him.
"(The K9) was pulled under water by Gomez, so I swam after Gomez and pulled him to the side of the creek," the deputy wrote in his report.
Gomez was booked on suspicion of resisting arrest, possession of burglary tools, and a parole violation, records show. It was not clear from the report whether Gomez was involved in the apartment break-in.

Las Vegas-area Christians pray after worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history
'It's devastating,' says a Nevada church secretary.

Las Vegas-area Churches of Christ are praying for their community and accounting for members after at least 58 people were killed in the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
"It's just really a tragic thing to happen," said J.B. Myers, minister and elder of the Bright Angel Church of Christ in Las Vegas. "But as far as I know right now, we don't have anybody — and I'm sure I'd know it by now — that was at that concert."

"It's devastating," agreed Tressie Robinson, church secretary for the North Las Vegas Church of Christ.
Robinson also did not know of any members directly affected. But she said her son, Tedrick Rogers, works at the 44-story Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino, where the shooting occurred.
According to The Associated Press, a gunman on the 32nd floor of the hotel-casino rained heavy fire down on a crowd of over 22,000 at an outdoor country music festival. Besides those dead, at least 527 others were wounded.
"All of a sudden, he said they just heard gunshots, and people were running and screaming."
Robinson said she was relaxing at home after attending Sunday night worship when her son texted his sister, Rakka Robinson, to say he was OK.
Only after receiving the text — which at first confused the family — did they learn of the shooting.
"My son was in his restaurant office doing his paperwork so he could leave," Tressie Robinson said. "All of a sudden, he said they just heard gunshots, and people were running and screaming."
When she talked with him on the phone, she thanked God that he was alive: "I just said, 'Lord, thank you, Jesus.'"
Mike Cope, senior minister for the Golf Course Road Church of Christ in Midland, Texas, posted on Facebook that he was in Las Vegas this weekend for a John Fogerty concert.
"I ran past Mandalay Bay yesterday (Sunday) before we left," Cope said. "Such a tragedy."

Sixteen high-intensity lasers cut through the misty air of a dark garage in West Chelsea. The latest work by artist Rita McBride feels like an inter-dimensional wormhole. It's beautiful, legitimately dangerous, and it just took Art History to a new level.
Particulates will remain on view in New York at Dia:Chelsea, a former marble-cutting facility, through June. The building looks completely shuttered – enter through the single doorway on the right with the "Danger: Laser Radiation" sign.
Besides the lasers, materials are listed as "site-specific particulates, ambient extraterrestrial dust, and water molecules (which I'm pretty sure is just the coolest way to say "regular dust and mist"). I love it.
The zig-zagging fence in the room is not to be ignored: It is both legally necessary AND a separate sculpture. Titled Barriers 2017, it consists of a carbon-fiber gate placed at the "lawful distance" from the high-intensity lasers.
Particulates marks McBride's first use of lasers as a material – inspired by a visit to Dan Flavin's 1973 work "Untitled (to you Heiner, with admiration and affection)" at Dia:Beacon, the art foundation's primary exhibition space located 60 miles north. McBride references Flavin's the green light, the "fence" form, and the idea of infinity, but HER work really IS infinite. Unbound by a light bulb, the only thing that's really stopping the lasers is the opposite wall. Thinking about the two works in conversation, I couldn't help but notice that the lasers face north – towards Flavin's room in Beacon. I may be reading into it a little and inventing my own connection, but one's imagination tends to go into overdrive when you're in this room.
