Q: How to convert a JPA native query to stream of record classes I have a database with a stored procedure, so I need to use a JPA native query to include that in the output. I would like to put the result of the query in a Java record class and then process that using streams.
    record Consistof(Integer articlenr, String articleDescription, String articletypeDescription, String locations) {}

    entityManager.createNativeQuery("SELECT ... ").getResultStream()
    .map(values -> {
        Object[] oa = (Object[])values;
        return new Consistof((Integer)oa[0], (String)oa[1], (String)oa[2], (String)oa[3]);
    })
    .forEach(consistsof -> {
        System.out.println("!!!!!" + consistsof);
        //System.out.println("!!!!!" + consistsof.articlenr());
    });

When I run the code above, the output shows instances of the record class. So the mapping is correct and working. However, the compiler feels that I cannot uncomment the last line; it does not recognize the articlenr() method. Why?
cannot find symbol
  symbol:   method articlenr()
  location: variable consistsof of type java.lang.Object

Bell Warriors announce 2020 Jim Wagdin Scholarship winners
Lesley McKay September 3, 2020 September 4, 2020
There is no question that this year has been challenging for the Bell Warriors Football Club. The Jim Wagdin Scholarships are an integral contribution to the continuing post-secondary education of ex-Warrior players. It took the generosity of Kevin Pidgeon, President and CEO of the Nautical Lands Group, to fund and ensure that the two $1,000 scholarships could be awarded in 2020.
(Kevin Pidgeon, a former Coach with the Bell Warriors Football Club and Gold Sponsor for the 2020 Jim Wagdin Scholarships for post-secondary education supporting ex-Bell Warrior players. Photo: Submitted)
We brought you the story back in June announcing Kevin's financial support for the scholarships. At that time, Kevin expressed, "I wanted to be sure that this year's bursaries could continue to be made without the Warriors having to impact the club's operating funds".
Thanks to Kevin's support, the Bell Warriors have announced the winners of the two 2020 Jim Wagdin Scholarships – Ethan Ryan of Carleton Place and Daniel Briere of Ottawa. Both are former Warriors players. "The Bell Warriors Football Club is pleased and excited to announce that Warriors alumni parent and alumni coach Kevin Pidgeon has stepped up to fund this year's two Bell Warriors Jim Wagdin Post-Secondary Scholarships," stated Paul Stewart, Bell Warriors Football President.
Ethan Ryan will be at Carleton University this year studying music and is hopeful to play football with the Carleton Ravens when university sports return. He has played not only with the Bell Warriors, but with the Myers Riders and Ottawa Sooners football clubs. He has given back to his community of Carleton Place through his passion for music, performing at charity events and dances. Ethan has raised money for the Carleton Place Hospital, fundraised for families who lost their homes in fires, for those on organ transplant wait lists, and those who have lost family members through tragedy.
(Ethan Ryan of Carleton Place, a recipient of the Jim Wagdin Scholarship announced by the Bell Warriors for 2020. Photo: submitted)
Ethan says of his lessons learned days with the Warriors, "I was taught to value teammates, to give of myself, because someone was depending on me. I was taught to have compassion for my team mates and the opposing teams. I learned to be committed to myself and to my team. These lessons forced me to become responsible. Playing with the Bell Warriors required dedication and I learned to give respect and was given my fair share. I was an award winner with the Bell Warriors every year I played for them. The Bell Warriors made me the football player and person that I am today".
Daniel Briere attends Ottawa University and is currently an Ottawa Gee-Gee player. He had been a player with the Bell Warriors Club for six seasons. Daniel has also been generous with his time volunteering for charitable events, as well as events through physical activity. He organized a Relay for Life event when in high school for two years. The event supports the Cancer Society and raised $98,000 in its first year and this year, due to COVID, it became a virtual event that raised $4,000. He also became a 'buddy' in the Ausome organization. Ausome gives children with autism a space to engage in physical activity. Daniel notes, "being brought up with the Bell Warriors and learning about teamwork has helped me to be successful with these events in my community".
(Daniel Briere of Ottawa, a 2020 recipient of the Bell Warriors Jim Wagdin Scholarship for post-secondary education. Photo: submitted)
Daniel said of his Warrior days, "I've experienced moments that I will never forget for my entire life. The Bell Warriors football organization gave me the opportunity to create bonds that will last a lifetime and help me create a work ethic that I feel will keep with me until the day I retire from whatever is awaiting me in the future".
Bell Warriors President, Paul Stewart, sums up nicely the generosity and importance of Kevin's support, "Kevin's considerable donation is not only appreciated but it is reaffirming that the Warriors are on the right track. It's a humbling pat-on-the-back to all of our volunteers who have selflessly given to their community over the years. We can't thank Kevin Pidgeon and his family enough for continuing to value our club and goals."

Possession: An Opposites Attract Romance (Possession Duet Book 1)
By T.K. Leigh / Genre: Multicultural & Interracial, Romance
Weston Bradford entered my world in a whirlwind.
Or, more accurately, during a torrential downpour.
After our brief encounter, I didn't think I'd ever see the attractive man with mesmerizing blue eyes again. Not in a city the size of Atlanta.
Until I agree to take on a historic home renovation and learn the owner is none other than the same Weston Bradford who I met in the rain.
We're as opposite as two people can be, but there's no denying the spark, the connection, the invisible tether pulling us toward one another.

Minor MLB Transactions: 2/7/19
By Steve Adams | February 7, 2019 at 10:08pm CDT
Here are Thursday's minor moves from around the game…
The Rays re-signed outfielder Jason Coats to a minor league pact and invited him to MLB Spring Training, tweets Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. Coats, who'll turn 29 later this month, spent the 2018 season with Tampa Bay's Triple-A affiliate, where he hit .247/.293/.448 with 15 home runs. Coats has a bit of big league time under his belt, having tallied 28 games with the White Sox in 2016. While he struggled to get on base last season, though, he has a stronger track record in Triple-A overall, where he's a .277/.327/.462 hitter in nearly 1300 plate appearances.
The Dodgers have signed righty J.D. Martin to a minor league pact, tweets Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. A first-rounder way back in 2001, Martin never established himself in the Majors but has been working to reinvent himself as a knuckleballer over the past three seasons. Martin spent last year with the Rays' Double-A affiliate, where he posted a 4.49 ERA with 5.1 K/9 against 4.3 BB/9 in 124 1/3 innings of work. Those numbers aren't exactly encouraging, though the knuckleball is still fairly new to Martin. As Rosenthal notes, he'll work with Dodgers adviser Charlie Hough on further refining his ability to utilize the increasingly rare pitch.
The Dodgers have also signed veteran Cody Asche to a minor league deal, tweets J.P Hoornstra of Southern California News Group. Asche, 28, spent the entire 2018 season in AAA, hitting .220/.304/.399 across 368 plate appearances. He last appeared in the majors with the Chicago White Sox in 2017, where he played 19 games mostly as a DH. Hoornstra notes that Asche will not receive an invite to spring training with Los Angeles.
The Mets have signed left-handed pitcher Sean Burnett to a minor league contract, tweets the New York Post's Ken Davidoff. The deal, Davidoff notes, does not include an invite to MLB spring training. Burnett spent the 2018 season pitching primarily with the Marlins' AAA affiliate, where he posted a 5.49 ERA, although he flashed more promising peripherals. He struck out 10.5 batters per nine innings while walking just 2.3, good for a 4.6 K/BB ratio. Burnett, 36, has not pitched in the majors since 2016. For his career, he has pitched to a 3.52 ERA in 378 1/3 major-league innings.

All-Star Notes: Red Sox, Lowrie, Markakis, Abreu
While the focus this time of year is obviously on trade possibilities, the All-Star break also provides reporters an opportunity to ask players about their own long-term preferences. It's not surprising, then, that we've seen a run of stories on players who won't be traded away, but also aren't under long-term control.
The Red Sox have certainly enjoyed an excellent opening run, led by excellent performances from a number of core players. It'd be a surprise to see any mid-season dealmaking, but the club might be expected to look into some new arrangements in the offseason to come. Closer Craig Kimbrel represents the most pressing situation, since he'll be a free agent. As Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports, Kimbrel says he and his family would "love to stay" but certainly indicated he'll wait to see what the market bears. Though he only arrived a few months ago, slugger J.D. Martinez says he'd be open to exploring a new pact that might eliminate some of his opt-out opportunities, as he tells Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com. Of course, there's plenty of time left before he's scheduled to have a shot at returning to the open market (post-2019), and there's reason to wonder whether the organization really would want to pay up to enhance its control rights. In between those two players in terms of contract situation is staff ace Chris Sale. Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe argues that, with one more option year left to go, the Boston organization ought to look into locking up the 29-year-old for the foreseeable future.
It seemed at one time that infielder Jed Lowrie would feature as a trade chip, but the surging Athletics obviously now have no plans to sell. Instead, attention has turned to the question whether he might end up returning to Oakland at season's end. As John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle writes, Lowrie says the front office has "expressed interest this time" around — unlike the prior time his contract with the A's was nearing an end. Lowrie, a first-time All-Star in his 11th MLB season, indicated that he'd be open to working something out to return for a sixth campaign in Oakland, though it's not clear whether any effort at mid-season talks will be made.
It's a similar story for Braves outfielder Nick Markakis, another respected veteran who finally earned an All-Star nod. As Gabriel Burns of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution writes, Markakis indicated he expects to keep playing after his contract runs out this fall — which is no surprise given his strong performance thus far. Whether that'll take place in Atlanta or elsewhere, though, isn't yet on his mind. "We'll deal with that stuff in the offseason when the time comes," says the veteran.
Those sorts of questions have long floated around White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu, who stands out as a quality veteran on a very youthful roster. As Steve Greenberg of the Chicago Sun-Times reports, Abreu says he hopes to have a chance to win before his time is up in Chicago. His focus is on "just trying to enjoy the moment with the team" at the moment, but the slugger also indicated that he's at least open to spending more time on the South Side. "I'd like to stay with this team," says Abreu. "And I'm going to do all in my power to make this team good as soon as possible."

The latest minor moves from around the game….
Newest moves
The Mariners have agreed to sign outfielder Junior Lake to a minor league deal, the Seattle Times' Ryan Divish reports. Manager Scott Servais said that Lake's deal contains an invitation to their big league Spring Training camp, and the contract will be official once Lake passes a physical. Lake, who turns 28 next month, hit .235/.278/.376 over 703 plate appearances with the Cubs, Orioles, and Blue Jays from 2013-16, and he played for the Red Sox Triple-A affiliate and in the Mexican League last season.
Earlier today
The Diamondbacks have signed outfielder Daniel Robertson to a minor league deal, according to Baseball Prospectus Kansas City's David Lesky (Twitter link). Robertson, 32, has a .262/.314/.328 slash line over 386 career plate appearances in the big leagues, with four different clubs since 2014. He most recently played for the Indians, appearing in 32 games for Cleveland last season.
The Rays have signed right-hander J.D. Martin to a minors deal, The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal reports (via Twitter). Martin tossed 125 innings for the Nationals as a starter in 2009-10 but hasn't been back to the majors since, with stints in Korea and independent baseball as well as the affiliated minor leagues. Rosenthal notes that Martin, who turned 35 last month, is trying to recast himself as a knuckleballer.

Nightengale's Latest: Martinez, Encarnacion, Darvish, Arrieta
By Jeff Todd | February 7, 2018 at 1:08pm CDT
As sparring continues over the ongoing free agent freeze — see Boras v. Halem, Clark v. Manfred — Bob Nightengale of USA Today takes an interesting look at how he believes the market might shake out for the top available players. His overall analysis and predictions are well worth a look, but a few items of information bear highlighting as part of the market landscape.
Slugger J.D. Martinez was the focus of a skirmish yesterday in the war of words, with some sparring over the fact that the Red Sox have not upped their longstanding offer — which evidently still stands at a previously reported five-year, $125MM level. Per Nightengale, the only other offer on the table right now is from the Diamondbacks, but it's just a one-year deal. Clearly, all involved have reason to anticipate that there'd be greater interest than that from other organizations, but it's a notable point in relation to Martinez's hopes for generating pressure on the Sox.
Notably, too, the Red Sox are perhaps still aware of other means of fulfilling their desire for right-handed power. Nightengale says the organization spoke with the Indians earlier in the offseason about a potential deal that would have brought Edwin Encarnacion to Boston. Whether or not there's any plausible hope of reviving those discussions isn't clear, though, and the Sox are said not to have been willing to send Jackie Bradley Jr. to Cleveland. Clearly, that's no surprise, as Bradley is a much younger and more affordable player who still offers plenty of value to the Sox. Indeed, it's amply arguable that Bradley is a more valuable overall performer than is Encarnacion.
Top free agent starter Yu Darvish is sitting on multiple five-year offers, per Nightengale. At the moment, he's still hoping an organization will decide to give him an extra year — or, in a longer-shot scenario, that the Dodgers or Yankees will find a way to move other contracts to open the door to a Darvish signing. For the most part, this seems to represent a continuation of the status quo, as is the case for the other top starters.
As for Jake Arrieta, we have not heard a ton of public chatter. There isn't much new, it seems, but Nightengale does suggest that one hypothetical possibility isn't likely: the incumbent Cubs have "barely even engaged in contract talks" with their former staff ace, per the report. That is not very surprising, of course. The sides already know one another (and their respective bargaining positions) quite well. And it's clear that, while a reunion has always remained hypothetically possible, both team and player intended to explore alternatives during the winter. Still, it's notable that they have evidently not circled back around to one another to this point.

Heyman's Latest: Villar, Lucroy, Tigers Veterans, Utley, Weaver, Lincecum, Clevenger
By Jeff Todd | February 23, 2017 at 1:43pm CDT
After grading every team's offseason, Jon Heyman of Fan Rag provided a bevy of information on a variety of situations around the league in his latest notes post. Some is mostly of historical interest, and there's lots more in the article, but these are some of the highlights with transactional ties:
The Brewers "floated" an extension offer to infielder Jonathan Villar, says Heyman, but he wasn't interested. The club's initial offer, at least, would only have guaranteed him around $20MM. While Villar had a relatively undistinguished career before landing in Milwaukee, he was rather excellent last year and hasn't yet turned 26. On the other hand, he won't reach arbitration eligibility until next fall and still has to prove he can repeat that effort. Though Milwaukee owner Mark Attanasio may have been willing to green-light pursuit of Matt Wieters, it seems that the front office wasn't enthusiastic about that possibility.
While the Rangers haven't yet opened extension talks with catcher Jonathan Lucroy, it's still expected that a deal will at least be explored. GM Jon Daniels has acknowledged as much, though it's unclear just when the discussions will get underway. If nothing comes together, Lucroy promises to be one of the game's most widely pursued free agents next winter. Texas, of course, is also chatting with starter Yu Darvish and second baseman Rougned Odor.
The Dodgers explored a deal with the Tigers involving star righty Justin Verlander, per Heyman, who notes that "nothing got close." Verlander's hefty salary obligations were considered a barrier, though it seems his no-trade protection may not have been. The veteran righty has suggested he'd be amenable to consider a swap, and his relationship with Kate Upton would likely make Los Angeles an appealing destination. While the Dodgers have a quite a few starters on hand, it'll be interesting to see whether the pursuit of the resurgent Verlander is rejoined at some point.
Speaking of the Tigers, the organization evidently considered quite a few other deals before largely holding pat. The Mets "seriously discussed" giving up Michael Conforto for the final season of control over star slugger J.D. Martinez, but ultimately backed down. While the Astros reportedly checked in on Miguel Cabrera, they were asking for "more than half of the $150 million remaining on Cabrera's contract" to be paid by Detroit and apparently never offered enough for the front office to bring a deal to ownership. And both the Twins and Padres made inquiries on shortstop Jose Iglesias, but clearly nothing developed with either team.
Though the Indians had real interest in Chase Utley, the team's offer was shy of the ultimately successful bid from the Dodgers. Still, it seems that Cleveland very nearly landed him before L.A. "stepped in late," per Heyman.
While the Reds have said they are done adding to their MLB roster, Heyman suggests the organization could make a play for some of the veteran pitchers still available. Cincinnati may even have outbid the Padres for Jered Weaver, who earned $3MM, though it's not clear whether the club ever did so.
Veteran righty Tim Lincecum is drawing some interest as he prepares for a showcase, according to Heyman, though surely he won't draw as much intrigue as he did last year. It's unclear what's next for catcher Steve Clevenger, who has attempted to rehabilitate his image in an interview with Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports. His former team, the Orioles, at least considered offering him a minor-league pact, but ultimately decided against it.

2016 Arbitration Filing Numbers
By Jeff Todd | January 15, 2016 at 7:16pm CDT
MLBTR's Arbitration Tracker is the place to go to see the arbitration contracts agreed upon thus far, as well as the figures exchanged between teams and players that were not able to reach agreement before today's noon deadline to swap salary positions. Matt Swartz's arbitration projections are available here.
As MLBTR has previously explained, 156 players officially filed for arbitration (after some eligible and tendered players had already reached agreement). Of those, 34 players have yet to reach reported agreements with their clubs. Of course, those players can still reach agreements before their hearings (which will take place between February 1st and 21st). If the case goes to a hearing, the arbitrator must choose one side's figures, rather than settling on a midpoint.
We've gathered the highest-stakes arbitration situations remaining — those where the player files for at least $4.5MM — in this post, but you can find them all in the tracker (with two as-yet-unreported exceptions).
Jake Arrieta, Cubs: $13MM versus $7.5MM (Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports, via Twitter)
Aroldis Chapman, Yankees: $13.1MM versus $9MM (Jon Heyman, via Twitter)

Minor Moves: Axelrod, Oliver, Blackley, Ledezma
By Mark Polishuk | April 2, 2015 at 7:00pm CDT
Here are today's minor transactions from around baseball, with the latest moves at the top of the post…
The Reds outrighted right-hander Dylan Axelrod off their 40-man roster and down to Triple-A, according to the team's official transactions page. This move will help free up space for one of the several veterans Cincinnati is looking to add to its 40-man roster. Axelrod posted a 2.95 ERA in 18 1/3 IP for the Reds last season and a 4.01 ERA in 103 1/3 innings at the Triple-A level in the Reds and White Sox organizations.
The Phillies have put Rule 5 Draft pick Andy Oliver on waivers, CSN Philly's Jim Salisbury reports. If Oliver clears waivers, Salisbury notes that the Phils could try to fully obtain the lefty's rights from the Pirates in a trade. As a Rule 5 Draft player, Oliver must spend the entire season on a 25-man roster or else be offered back to his original club (Pittsburgh).
The Giants seem to have released left-hander Travis Blackley, as per the southpaw's own Twitter page. Blackley tweeted his thanks to the organization for giving him a chance to pitch this spring (on a minor league deal) and used the past tense in describing the Giants as "a very classy organization that I was proud to play for!" Blackley posted a 5.23 ERA over 192 2/3 innings spread over four MLB seasons between 2004-13 with the Mariners, Giants, A's, Astros and Rangers, and he spent the 2014 campaign pitching in Japan.
The Twins have released left-hander Wil Ledezma, LaVelle E. Neal III of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports (via Twitter). Ledezma, 34, signed a minor league deal with the Twins in December and was looking to reach the big leagues for the first time since 2011.
The White Sox released outfielder Brian Anderson, CSN Chicago's Dan Hayes reports (via Twitter). The Sox also parted ways with two more veterans according to their team transactions page, releasing right-hander J.D. Martin and infielder Andy LaRoche.

Left-hander Hideki Okajima and right-hander Chris Resop have elected free agency from the Athletics, according to Matt Eddy of Baseball America (Twitter link). Okajima, 38 in December, pitched in five big league games for the A's but spent the bulk of the year in Triple-A where he posted a 4.22 ERA with 9.5 K/9 and 1.5 BB/9 in 37 appearances. Resop, 31 in November, also spent the lion's share of the year in Triple-A and had a 6.81 ERA with 7.3 K/9 and 3.3 BB/9.
Reds right-hander Jose Arredondo, Angels right-hander Robert Coello, and Marlins third baseman Gil Velazquez have elected free agency under Article XX(D), according to Eddy (via Twitter). Arredondo struggled at the Triple-A level in 2013, posting a 5.87 ERA with 10.4 K/9 and 6.5 BB/9. Coello made 16 big league relief appearances in 2013 and put up a 3.71 ERA with 12.2 K/9 and 4.2 BB/9.
At Baseball America, Eddy has the full list of the past week's minor league transactions.

BETHESDA, MD. December 12th, 2011 – BrainScope® Company, Inc. today announced that it has been awarded a contract by the United States Department of Defense for the "Assessment of Head Injury in the Emergency Department: Clinical Validation of the BrainScope Ahead™ Technology." This contract is valued at $7.5 million over 18 months and is effective immediately.
BrainScope's Ahead™ M-100 is being developed to address the unmet need for a medical device to aid in triage of patients who are suspected of traumatic brain injury (TBI). It is expected to provide objective and timely adjunctive assessment of structural brain injury and functional impairment from TBI, including its milder forms known as concussions.
The Ahead™ M-100 is a handheld, non-invasive, non-radiation emitting medical device in development that could provide a rapid and objective assessment and categorization of brain injury, based on patterns identified in brain electrical activity. The Ahead™ M-100 is intended to be utilized as an adjunct to standard clinical practice to aid in the rapid and effective assessment of military service members suspected of TBI at the point of care. Early identification and categorization of even the mildest forms of brain injury are the first steps in providing proper care to ensure optimal recovery.
"We are honored to receive this award from the Department of Defense to begin this important clinical validation of the Ahead technology," said Michael Singer, President and CEO of BrainScope. "We are excited to work with the U.S. military on this very serious issue and are looking forward to commencing our trial in emergency departments across the country."
In May of this year, BrainScope reached concurrence with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the key study design elements for clinical validation of the Ahead™ M-100 medical device.
In 2010 and 2011 results from clinical studies utilizing BrainScope's technology have been published in leading peer-reviewed neurology and emergency medicine journals such as Brain Injury, The Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation and The American Journal of Emergency Medicine.
Backed by Revolution LLC (created by AOL co-founder Steve Case), Alafi Capital, Brain Trust Accelerator Fund, Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Portage Ventures and ZG Ventures, BrainScope is a medical neurotechnology company that is developing a new generation of hand-held, simple-to-use, non-invasive instruments designed to aid medical professionals in rapidly and objectively assessing brain function. BrainScope devices in development are based on a proprietary technology platform, which integrates databases of brainwave recordings with advanced developments in digital signal processing, sophisticated algorithms, miniaturized hardware and disposable headset sensors. BrainScope's initial focus is on traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its milder forms known as concussion. BrainScope's unique device is being developed to meet a long-standing clinical need for improved early identification, staging and triage for head-injured patients. BrainScope devices under development for use in the United States for assessment of traumatically-induced head injury and concussions are for investigational use only and have not been submitted to FDA for premarket review.

Feature "SANCHIN" exists in the component of Kata. SANCHIN doesn't exist in the component of Kata.
The name of Kata originates in "Number that has a religious meaning". The name of Kata originates in "Living thing".
KATA that existed in Nahate since old time. KATA that Kanryo Higaonna handed down to Chojun Miyagi.
※"SAN(3)" symbolizes the harmony of "Heaven", "Earth", and ""Human being". Unknown from whom Chojun Miyagi learnt.He did not talk about it. He had circumstances that were not able to be talked.KATA of "GO" and KATAf of "JU" are greatly different. This fact means Chojun Miyagi had two masters or more. It is presumed Choyu Motobu in the Okinawa Karate Research Club in 1920's.
※※Kanryo Higaonna did not have "SEPAI". It is appropriate that "SEPAI" is classified into "KATA of JU".
※※※The cricket is a ferocious insect. The traditional game bet on the victory or defeat of cricket's fight exists in a Chinese southern region.
Supplementation GEKISAI1, 2, and TENSYO are the creations of MIYAGI. "13" is a lucky number in a Chinese southern region.
"13,18,36,108" is the figure with a special meaning in the Buddhism and the Taoism. However, I want to refrain the deep explanation of it here.
part2 Traditional, basic practice method of Goju-Ryu Karate. It is practiced to repeat the basis with Tenshin (movement)of Sanchindachi, Zenkutudachi, Nekoashidachi, and Shikodachi. These are basic practices indispensable to learn KATA.
In the practice, pursue neither speed nor the frequency.
Practice deliberately one by one, and confirm correct operation and a muscular usage, how to stand, and posture.
The content is as follows.
Video clip that edited some of basic practice of Yuzenkai a certain day at random.
Yuzenkai values a traditional basis.
Yuzenkai spends enough time in the practice for the basis.
Tensyo is principle to Gojo-ryu as is Sanchin. The rotary motion that is the base of the Gojo-ryu combat technique is acquired through Tensyo. Thorough training in Sanchin and Tensyo is indispensable in learning true Gojo-ryu. This Kata was created by Chojun Miyagi but was strongly influenced by Okinawan traditional body movements and the "kakufa" kata.
Traditionally, Kata Gekisai are only Syodan(1) and Nidan(2).
Recently, Gekisai Sandan(3) ~ Godan(5) tends to be created by each Shihans(sect).
In Yuzenkai, Gekisai sandan, yodan and godan are kobudo kata(for sai, tonfa and kama).
Those Katas had been taught in my family tree and I added a little improvement to them.
Gekisai Syodan was created as a basic Goju-ryu kata by Chojun Miyagi before WWII. Although it is a basic kata, it is not an easy kata to learn. It contains elements of the more senior kata used in Gojo-ryu. Enpi (elbow attack) lets the tip of the elbow cut into vital point "Chikon" of the enemy by using Seiken as Tateken.This kata has "byobugaeshi "as typical throwing technique of Gojuryu. And it also has elements of Suparinpei.
Gekisai nidan is the basic of "Ju(soft)".
"Tora-nage"(tiger throwing technique) ,one of the throwing technique in Bubishi, is seen in the Kata.Recently, GEKISAI3,4,5 might be seen. They are new Kata that had been created by several Shihans in recent years. So, the contents of them are various. Of course, YUZENKAI doesn't acknowledge them.Yuzenkai Gojuryu that attempts uniting the bare-handed technique and weapon technique,enacts Gekisai3, 4, and 5 as basic KATA of those weapons.
撃砕四段 In Yuzenkai, Gekisai yodan is the name used for Tonfa.
It is the Kata by which I added a little improvement to the Kata for the basic practice that has been succeeded in our sect .
Mas.Oyama(1923- 1994) united Gojuryu and Syotokanryu and created Kyokushin Karate. To learn to wisdom of Mas.Oyama, YUZENKAI has the section of Syotokanryu. YUZENKAI plans the Trinity of Gojuryu, Syotokanryu, and Ryukyu-Kobudo.
KATA of basic YUZENKAI "HEIAN"
勇善会松濤館流基本型 The prototype of "HEIAN" is "CHANNAN". "CHANNAN(澹南)" is presumed to be a name of the general in China that temporarily defected to Okinawa to about middle of the 19th century. To suit the education of the physical education of the school, Anko Itosu (1831-1915)modified KATA learnt from "CHANNAN". Anko Itosu is the master of Gichin Funakoshin(1868-1957). The name was changed into "HEIAN" before long though Itosu called this KATA "CHANNAN" at first. "HEIAN" is a meaning "Peace" in Japanese. It is presumed for "ANAN" "HEIKU" "PAIKU" of Ryuei-ryu to have been handed down from CHANNAN.
There are a lot of uncertainties of the name of Kata. However, the name without all origins does not exist. Moreover, concealing might be more convenient. Any culture is related to the Race's history.
The Kanji " 獅-法Saifa" means "Lions- combat method." Of course, a lion does not live in Asia. "獅子 (Sai/Shishi / Shin)" has been the imaginational animal that Asian people had invented from a image of lion. Saifa often be written "最破"(most destroying).But this Kanji is a phonetic equivalent as well as a lot of other KATA names. And this Kata contains a lot of Crane movements as well as other Gojuryu Kata".
The character for Sei-en-chin (青-鷹-戦) means "blue- hawk fight." (Blue means young) It can also be written as"征遠鎮:enemy far away is defeated. But this Kanji is a phonetic equivalent as well as a lot of other KATA names.(This is the name made according to a belligerent tendency to Japan at that time.) By the way, the martial arts Kata "Fist of golden hawk" exist in Taiwan.
This kata incorporates a lot of operations exhibited by the hawk, and does not use the kick operation at all. The main feature of this kata is the handgrips. It moves in every direction quickly by using shikodachi and teaches how to hurl oneself and to throw-out oneself. It is an important kata even though it is a basic kata.
(士壮戦) The original meaning of Sisou-chin蟋蟀-戦 is "Cricket-fight".
The original meaning of the十三 is " 13".
It is often said that Sesan is composed of 13 techniques.But the word is not a simplely meaning "the 13 techniques". In the oriental philosophy, the "13" is a mystical number.For instance, the number of Buddha who represents the Buddhism is 13.This kata demands the strongest punch and kick. Offense and defense in a super-handgrip is also featured. It also has a lot of secrets too. There are lots of different kata named Sesan in Okinawa and China.
The original meaning of the 十八 is " 18".
But the word is not simply meaning "18 techniques".
By the way, the Buddhism is divided into two big sect .One is the sect awakes oneself by ZEN.Another is the sect relieved by grace of Amida-Buddha. To relieve people, latter Amida buddha had set up the oath of 48 pieces. The 18th oath is valued most.
(来留破) The original meaning of 臥-龍-法"Kuru-run-fa" is "dragon fight method." "臥-龍:Kuru-run" is the "Dragon taking a stance low " in translating literally. It is ,in a word, a dragon in the attack mode.
Crawls and Barks of Dragon can be seen in this kata. Joint technique and throwing more than Sepei are included in this kata.
This Kata often is written the Kabji"来留破". This Kanji is a phonetic equivalent as well as other KATA .
The original meaning of the 一百零八 is " 108". This number represents infinity. So,this Katais called the compilation kata of Goju-ryu. There are Shihan who taught that the alias of Suparenpei is Bettyurin, but this is no accurate. There are some similarities between the two kata, but there is many difference in the operations contained in the latter half. And especially, the point that methods of respiration of Sanchin are different. It as be testified that Bettyurin, Higaonna Kanryo taught Kyoda Juhatsu, is not the Suparinpei of today's Goju-ryu. Miyagi Chojun incorporated a lot of changes to the creation of Suparinpei.By the way,108 is a multiple of 18 and 36.
The Buddhism explains that human has the evil passion of 108, and eliminating them is a purpose of the life.And the "108" is also the name given to highest Kata of the each Syaolin Kunfu sect in China.
(100) The original meaning of the 百-歩-連 is " 100 steps continuousness"."100" is an adjective meaning "many".
Kanryo Higaonna had taught the Kata "Bettyurin" .
It is doubtless that Chojun Miyagi modified a lot of parts of Bettyurin and made the Suparinpei.
In addition, I cannot throw away a possibility that Miyagi learned Suparinpei from another master besides Kanryo Higaonna.These two katas have many difference too much.
This Kata is called the secret Kata in the Higa-Gojo-ryu school.To our regret, diversity of this Kata is being generated now. Perhaps, it might be handed down as if the secret. A similar one to this KATA exists also in Kingai-Ryu and Shito-Ryu. It can be assumed that they might have same root.
Ryuei-Ryu is said the "Nahate" as same as Goju-ryu. Both have the same founder "Ryu-ryuko". (However, the "Ryu-ryuko" legend of both is so different. And, I have been handed down by the pronunciation of "Tu-ryuko". )The name and the operation of KATA of both are the same or similar. YUZENKAI is researching the Nahate-Karate in the wide sense and feel a lot of mysteries of Ryuei-Ryu's Kata roots. I am interpreting them like a "Apocrypha" for Gojuryu in Nahate category. We shouldl more and more critically research them from a history and a kinematic theory.
"Bou " is a basis of all Ryukyu Kobudo:Karate weapon. "Syusi no kon" is a basis of all Bou jutsu. "Kon" is another name of "Bou", and the meaning of stick. The length is 180 generally cm, and the material is wicks of the oak or the willow.
It can be said that it is common sense of Karate-ka to learn Kata of some Bou jutsu.
"Syu-shi" means "Mr.Syu". Because "Kon" is an alias of "Bou", this Kata's name means "Bou of Mr.Syu".
It is said that Tonfa is the weapon which evolved from the steering wheel of the stone mill. "Hamahiga no Tonfa" (Tonfa in Hamahiga island) assumes the fight with four enemies of the all around.

Q: vNext Model Binder that filter strings I need to filter all strings in my project to prevent XSS attacks.
I decided to do it by using global model binder.
Below you can see model binder registration code:
public IServiceProvider ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    services.AddMvc().AddMvcOptions(options =>
    {
        options.ModelBinders.Add(new AntiXSSModelBinder());
    });
}

The requirement is to filter both simple parameter strings and strings that inside complex type (any level of nesting):
public async Task<IActionResult> GetShippingAddress(string id)
public async Task<IActionResult> AddUpdateShippingMethod(AddUpdateShippingMethodModel model)
// AddUpdateShippingMethodModel has Text property of string type

Example of filtering method:
public class AntiXSSModelBinder : IModelBinder
{
    public Task<ModelBindingResult> BindModelAsync(ModelBindingContext bindingContext)
    {
        // ...
    }

    private string FilterPotentiallyXSSEntries(string value)
    {
        return value.Replace("<", "").Replace(">", "").Replace("script", "");
    }
}

No good documentation on ModelBinder topic, so any help will be appreciated.

A: public class AntiXSSModelBinder : IModelBinder
{
    public Task<ModelBindingResult> BindModelAsync(ModelBindingContext bindingContext)
    {
        if (bindingContext.ModelMetadata.IsComplexType)
        {
            // this type cannot be converted
            return ModelBindingResult.NoResultAsync;
        }

        var valueProviderResult = bindingContext.ValueProvider.GetValue(bindingContext.ModelName);
        if (valueProviderResult == ValueProviderResult.None)
        {
            // no entry
            return ModelBindingResult.NoResultAsync;
        }

        var model = valueProviderResult.ConvertTo(bindingContext.ModelType);

        if (bindingContext.ModelType == typeof(string))
        {
            var modelAsString = model as string;

            if (model != null)
            {
                return ModelBindingResult.SuccessAsync(bindingContext.ModelName, FilterPotentiallyXSSEntries(modelAsString));
            }
        }

        return ModelBindingResult.NoResultAsync;
    }

    private static string FilterPotentiallyXSSEntries(string value)
    {
        return value.Replace("<", "").Replace(">", "").Replace("script", "");
    }
}

Works for all levels of nesting.

Q: Find out if post is private on tumblr? If a post is private on tumblr, I want to add a 'private' image to the page. Is there any way I can find this out?

A: I couldn't find any variables in the theming guide, so it doesn't seem to be possible to use a special class or id value.
If you might like to program, you could maybe (I don't understand much of this stuff) use the API which knows "state":

Indicates the current state of the post
States are published, queued, draft and private

Another (rather dirty) method could be to parse the URL path with JavaScript, because private posts start with /private/. If present, you could add a class value like "private" to the body element with JS.

Fabrizio Daddabbo, general manager of the establishment, has made the move to Hull from Gino's popular Manchester restaurant.
He said: "I can hand on heart say Gino's restaurants are true Italian dining. It is all about the customer experience and we want people to feel comfortable whether they are having a drink or dining with us.

Taking a step for Fair Trade is all about the power you have to make the world a better place.
You may not know it, but even simple shopping decisions can make a big impact on the world. Fair Trade is all about making sure the people who grow and make the things we buy get a fair deal, so they can invest in making their families, communities, and environments thrive.
Choosing to buy Fair Trade products is a really simple step you can take to make this happen. Once you do, you'll have already taken your first step!
Recognizing Fair Trade products or knowing if they're the real deal can sometimes be tricky though, which is why Fairtrade certification was invented. Certified products have been independently verified to have met rigorous standards, and are easily recognizable by the iconic mark on the package.
You'd be surprised at just how easy it is to find Fair Trade products once you start looking for them. In fact, you can find Fairtrade certified coffee and chocolate in just about any shop across the country.
If we all take steps to add more Fair Trade to our lives, and we tell our friends, family, and local shops about it too, then all of our small steps together will go a long way to make the world a better place.
In fact, why not take a step right now? After all, every step counts!
WANT TO TAKE SOME BIGGER STEPS?
But don't let us hold you back. You could take hundreds of steps for Fair Trade this year; all you need to do is apply your creativity and drive to make the world a better place.
Did we forget to mention prizes? Oh yes, registering steps on the right day (like every day during Fair Trade Fortnight (May 1-15), among others) could land you some fantastic Fair Trade prizes. Just keep an eye on the little black box on the front page, or follow us on Facebook or Twitter to keep on top of things.
Fairtrade Canada will be running fun contests [link to Contest page] throughout the year that might just have some great prizes too….
