BN360 Spotlight Blog: Embracing New Beginnings
BN360
Growing up, I always wanted to work with my hands, so I learned the various trades with my godfather, Brent McCalister, who also taught me the great disciplines of hard work and how to become a solid young man. I loved the skilled trades, with a preference for electrical, so I decided that was what I wanted my career to be. I began calling every electrical contractor I could find, only to realize that no one was hiring or only hiring unionized workers. With a no at every call, I was discouraged, but kept calling and eventually found someone who was willing to give me a chance.
Because of that perseverance, I was now on my way to fulfilling my dream, or so I thought. I spent the following years as an electrician, working hard at dedicating myself to perfecting my craft. Until one day, a co-worker asked me, "Why are you an electrician? You're skilled, but it just seems like you should be doing something different. If you could do something you truly loved, what would it be?" This statement got me thinking and was the first step in my new journey to finding what I really wanted to do in life.
I always felt construction was my profession, but that there was something else calling me to do more. My true passion was giving back to the community, particularly mentoring and educating young adults in the City of Buffalo. So, I decided to take a leap of faith and left my career as an electrician to forge a path that would allow me to give back to the community. I now work at the Buffalo Employment and Training Center (BETC) helping others and fulfilling what I want to do in life.
I try to live my life following two key philosophies. First, if you show love, kindness, hard-work, and dedication, it will be returned to you. Second, go beyond yourself to not only build yourself up, but to also build others up around you. These philosophies have worked well for me and I would encourage others to follow them as well.
I would also encourage others to pay attention to what you are drawn toward because that can be the clue to help you find fulfillment and your true purpose in life. Also, never be afraid of a new beginning, no matter how it may happen. Change can be difficult but has the amazing ability to make you stronger. Lastly, as a young professional, it is important to give back to the community and hopefully inspire those around you to do the same. That, I believe, is the true reward.

Aric Wu, one of Crain's Best 40 Under 40
AABANY congratulates its member, Aric Wu, litigation partner at Gibson Dunn's New York office as one of Crain's Best 40 Under 40. Here's the opening paragraph from the article:
A hotshot plaintiff's lawyer was seeking $6 million in damages in a medical-malpractice suit against Aric Wu's father, an obstetrician in suburban Virginia. The Wu family was stunned. Though the medical evidence was in Dr. Wu's favor, the trial was harrowing to watch, especially for 14-year-old Aric. "The whole experience stuck in my mind," he said, and set him on the path to becoming a litigator.
Well done, Aric!

Kennebunk is a wonderful place to visit and live, no doubt about it. It has an attractive downtown with shops and restaurants, great schools, and the beauty of the Coast of Maine. We are 1-1/2 hours from Boston, 30 minutes from Portland and an hour from the White Mountains. People in the area are generally liberal and tolerant but do possess a fair amount of Yankee reserve. The town has a strong sense of place and pride in their community. Many members of the church are active in town affairs and serve on various community boards and organizations.

New Production Strategy Pays Off for BlueRock
Jan 21, 2020 10:01 AM By Rapaport News
RAPAPORT... BlueRock Diamonds reported the first annual profit in its history, as sales grew amid increased production and a higher average price, the miner said Tuesday.
The improvement was the result of a new initiative the miner implemented at its Kareevlei deposit in South Africa to stabilize production and offset the impact of the rainy season, during which operations are difficult.
Revenue for the year nearly tripled to GBP 4.1 million ($5.4 million) from the sale of 12,675 carats, compared with 5,805 carats in 2018. The average price rose 24% to $415 per carat, as BlueRock mined from higher-value portions of the deposit, it noted. Total output was 14,033 carats, versus 6,247 carats the previous year, as the majority of production stemmed from the company's higher-grade KV1 pipe. That figure fell within BlueRock's guidance of between 13,000 and 15,000 carats.
"I am very pleased with the continued success at Kareevlei, having achieved the aggressive guidance for 2019, and operational profitability for the first time," said BlueRock executive chairman Mike Houston. "We are proud of this key milestone, which is a testament to the revised production strategy…which focuses on stabilizing production ahead of maximizing the exploitation of the resource."
Based on the results, the company intends to implement further changes in order to increase production and lower costs, Houston added. It also plans to raise its guidance for the 2020 fiscal year following finalization of these initiatives.
BlueRock began operations in October 2012, and listed on the London Stock Exchange in October 2013.

Q: get a list of unique date from the stream grouping I have data:
id|date
1 |12-12-2021
2 |12-12-2021
3 |13-12-2021

Want to get a list of dates: ["12-12-2021", "13-12-2021"]
Using stream, I can get a map:
txs.stream().collect(Collectors.groupingBy(g -> g.getDate()));

I would like to convert to list in from the stream above.

A: groupingBy is not the best choice in your case. Use distinct instead. It will automatically filter out all duplicates.
txs.stream().map(g -> g.getDate()).distinct().collect(Collectors.toList());

A: If you have the data in Map<Integer,LocalDate> the you can use values() and collect to Set to eliminate duplicates
Set<LocalDate> dates = txs.values().stream().collect(Collectors.toSet())

or using HashSet
new HashSet<>(txs.values());

"I took a photo of myself 14 days ago, before embarking on the SlimFast 3.2.1. Plan. I've tried SlimFast in the past and lost a couple of pounds, but never stuck at it for long, so I kept an open mind. In the last two weeks I've had a couple of 'bad' days. There was a three-course meal with a little too much wine, and a couple of days slacking, but then I got back on it. Last night, I bit the bullet and took my 'after' photo – and I was pretty chuffed! There is a definite difference. Face, arms, waist and hips: all quite a bit smaller. In just TWO WEEKS!

"Ready to fire – Germany is armed" (ZDFinfo): The wrong focus
The TV documentary "Ready to shoot – Germany armed" (ZDFinfo) ends with a strong statement, but is not open enough in other places.
Frankfurt – In their new report, directors Michael Freund and Richard Rüb take a look at private gun ownership in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. They gather voices from gun dealers, sport shooters, politicians and psychologists who report on the status of gun laws and their potentially fatal consequences.
It becomes clear that the German weapons legislation is not particularly strict in international comparison, as the figures show: In Germany, one of three weapons possession certificates is required to own weapons, depending on the type of weapon. A total of more than 1.7 million such notes are issued in Germany, with some gun owners having entire arsenals. The documentation shows a former Luftwaffe soldier whose collection includes over 1,000 firearms. Elsewhere, even the arms dealer Adrian Schäfer, who also takes over the destruction of old weapons, says: "The stocks in Germany are immense."
"Ready to fire – Germany is armed" on December 28th, 2021 in ZDFinfo
Gun owners and lobbyists, who speak in detail in "Ready to shoot – Germany is armed", like to talk about "sports equipment". Like a mantra, it is also emphasized that it is not weapons that are dangerous, but people. A former police officer who offers training for combat situations in Switzerland says that one should just not "arm the bad people". Michael Freund and Richard Rüb take their time to collect these sometimes shockingly simple positions and only gradually do people who take a critical stance have their say in the report.
"The higher the availability of weapons, the more likely it will be lethal," explains Giessen criminologist Britta Bannenberg. This explains the high number of fatal firearms use in private households in Switzerland, where conscripts are allowed to keep their weapons after they have completed their service. The perpetrators, adds Bannenberg, are mostly men.
The advocates of private gun ownership, as becomes clear when watching the documentary on ZDFinfo, are mostly white men. Michael Freund and Richard Rüb try to break this open and also let someone like the influencer Carolin Matthie have their say. This also reveals the pitfalls of trying to report in a balanced way. Populist positions such as the Matthies, that after a murder with a firearm, "everything should not be forbidden" because you are then "back in the cave", are reproduced without contradiction. Figures on fatal firearms use, which correlate with the number of firearms in circulation, merely frame the interviews without really being an argument.
TV documentary "Ready to shoot – Germany armed" does not develop a position of its own
In the end, "Ready to fire – Germany is armed" remains an accumulation of opinions and interests without the documentation developing its own position. Even the use of dramatic music and slow-motion recordings at the shooting range do not testify to critical reporting in formal terms. Nevertheless, Freund and Rau provide an insight into the phenomenon, which in its manifestation is a cause for concern: one in five Germans today owns a firearm. In addition, more than 30,000 weapons are reported missing in Germany and most of them are suspected of being in the illegal arms trade. The documentation relates these numbers only to the previous year and determines an increase. As a clearer comparison it could be said that this number would be enough to equip the entire Belgian military with weapons.
The ZDFinfo documentation repeatedly shows the consequences of legal and illegal possession of weapons by referring to attacks from recent years and showing how the shooters got hold of the tools. It is noticeable that the perpetrators mostly got hold of the weapons legally. Stephan Kramer, the President of the Office for the Protection of the Constitution in Thuringia, points out that "right-wing extremists in particular try to obtain weapons legally", mostly through shooting clubs and hunting licenses. Unfortunately, "Ready to fire – Germany is armed" only scratches the political implications of this fact. Cases like that of the right-wing extremist soldier Franco A. and the Hannibal network show the extent to which the right-wing scene has been arming for years and how inappropriate the plea for free access to weapons, to which the documentation allows so much space, are.

Tuesday, December 28, 2021, 11.10 p.m., ZDF media library (video available until June 27, 2026)
Said Etris Hashemi believes that having his own weapon as protection against assassins is the "completely wrong point". Hashemi, who barely survived the Hanau attack but lost his brother, instead advocates a "friendly society where we live together". The fact that Michael Freund and Richard Rau end with his words is a strong statement in this documentary, which is not very open-minded in other places. (Jendrik Walendy)

Landlords will often lease property to a tenant which is subject to a mortgage.
Accordingly, as part of the leasing process, landlords are often requesting the consent of the bank to register the lease. However, sometimes obtaining the bank's consent may not be as straight forward as it seems.
Why is mortgagee consent required?
A breach of this clause is a breach of the mortgage, which could have serious consequences for the landlord.
Is it just a rubber stamp?
As in the above example, the mortgage usually requires consent to be obtained prior to leasing or agreeing to lease the property. However, standard practice is that a bank will not consider a request for consent to a lease until the lease has been signed by both parties. This means that the lease has been entered into by the parties and often the tenant has taken possession of the premises before the landlord or its solicitor seeks the consent of the bank. In most cases, the bank gives its consent. It could be perceived that obtaining mortgagee consent to a lease is just a rubber stamp.
if the parties enter into an agreement for lease on the understanding that the lease will not be registered for some time and the tenant has the right to lodge a caveat, the bank may request an amendment to the clause that provides that the tenant (as caveator) will consent to any dealings of the bank.
In these instances the landlord will request authority from the tenant to amend or vary the lease to comply with the bank's requirements.
A bank may also refuse consent to a lease on the basis that the rent was below the market rent. Unlike the above examples, this issue is not easily resolved by asking the tenant's authority to amend the lease as the bank may require the tenant to pay more rent.
What happens if consent is withheld?
If consent to a lease is refused by a bank it can leave a landlord in a difficult situation. If the parties do not vary the lease so that it is acceptable to the bank or, if this is not an option, if the landlord does not terminate the lease, then the landlord is likely be in breach of its obligations under the mortgage.
This highlights the importance of including a clause in the lease which provides that the lease will not bind the landlord unless and until the landlord has obtained consent to the lease by any relevant mortgagee, in a form satisfactory to the landlord.
ensure that the lease protects the landlord if the bank's consent is refused.
By taking these steps before the lease is signed by both parties, the landlord may avoid a situation where it is bound to a lease which is in breach of its mortgage.

Q: How to use collections in Symfony2 with OneToMany and ManyToOne relationships? I have a database with Contacts (Contact entity), Contacts' relatives (ContactRelative entity) and various occasions (AnniBirth entity). What I am firstly trying to do is to persist a Contact with its details in the Contact entity. Secondly, I enter all the Contact's relatives (spouse, child etc.) and I wish to have the ability to enter up to 4 occasions (birthday, anniversary etc.). I have been researching in Symfony2 and doctrine's relationships/ associations for a way to implement this and I decided to use "collections".
Everything is clear to me except the many AnniBirths to ContactRelatives, where I have to display a collection of embedded AnniBirth forms and persist them back to the database.
So far, the relationships are:

*

*1 Contact can have Many Relatives

*1 Contact can have Many AnniBirths

*1 Relative can have Many AnniBirths
Requirements:

*

*I will be able to view all Contact's annibirths, Relatives and their
AnniBirths.

PROBLEMS:

*

*The Contact persists all data successfully in the MySQL db. Same for
ContactRelative and AnniBirth BUT when saving data for last two
(ContactRelative and AnniBirth), the contact_id and
contactrelative_id are not updated or saved in the tables. I know I am making a mistake with collections and persisting data. I tried
to display the contact_id by using
\Doctrine\Common\Util\Debug::dump($contactRelative->getAnniBirths()->contact);
exit(); but all I get is NULL.

*I want to be able to display the AnniBirth form for 4 times and I do
not know how to implement this. The only thing I found after days of
searching, If I want to display an embedded form without javascript,
I must use "prototype" directly like that : {{
form_widget(form.annibirths.vars.prototype)}} but only one instance
of the form is displayed.

A: Part of the problem is this:
    public function addAnnibirth(\********\***Bundle\Entity\AnniBirth $annibirths)
    {
        $this->annibirths[] = $annibirths;

        return $this;
    }

You will notice that while this points the contact/relative to the annibirth, the annibirth is not pointing back.  That is perhaps why another poster may have recommended doing a loop.  But a robust and simple solution it to:
    public function addAnnibirth(\********\***Bundle\Entity\AnniBirth $annibirth)
    {
        $this->annibirths[] = $annibirth;
        $annibirth->setContact($this);  // or setRelative for the Relative entity.
        return $this;
    }

That might clear up your persisting issues.  Too much code to be sure.  But absolutely need the above changes.  If you look closely at most examples you will see the same sort of line.  Easy to overlook.
And once everything is setup properly, there will be no need to loop before persisting.

A: $contactRelative->annibirth = $ab1; This shouldn't be possible because you put annibirth as protected within ContactRelative. That should have thrown an error (if you turned errors on earlier). What you should do instead is $contactRelative->setAnnibirth($ab1);. But that's for making the php objects attached, the attaching in the database actually occrus in the Annibirth table which holds a contactRelative_id so you will have to update this object: $ab1->setContactRelative($contactRelative);

A: Found the solution:
Added in controller:
foreach ( $contactRelative->getAnnibirths() as $anni )
                    {
                        $anni-> setContactRelative($contactRelative);
                        $anni-> setContact($contactRelative->getContact());
                    }

and in twig template:
{% for occasion in form.annibirths %}

            {{ form_row(occasion.type) }}
            {{ form_row(occasion.repeating) }}
            {{ form_row(occasion.celebrationDate) }}

{% endfor %}

(Reuters) – Chinese gaming company Beijing Kunlun Tech Co Ltd is seeking to sell Grindr LLC, the popular gay dating app it has owned since 2016, after a U.S. government national security panel raised concerns about its ownership, according to people familiar with the matter.
Previous examples of the U.S. ordering the divestment of a company after the acquirer did not file for CFIUS review include China National Aero-Technology Import and Export Corporation's acquisition of Seattle-based aircraft component maker Mamco in 1990, Ralls Corporation's divestment of four wind farms in Oregon in 2012, and Ironshore Inc's sale of Wright & Co, a provider of professional liability coverage to U.S. government employees such as law enforcement personnel and national security officials, to Starr Companies in 2016.
Kunlun's control of Grindr has fueled concerns among privacy advocates in the United States. U.S. senators Edward Markey and Richard Blumenthal sent a letter to Grindr last year demanding answers with regards to how the app would protect users' privacy under its Chinese owner.

2017 is the year VR went from gimmick to game-changer
By Andrew London
Turn on, strap in, space out
(Image credit: HTC)
Virtual reality is geeky, there's no two ways about it. The VR headset strapped to a pasty white twenty-something is lazy shorthand for 'geek' in adverts all over the world right now. But the emerging technology is starting to make waves in the mainstream, and for good reason: it's incredible.
To misquote Thomas Aquinas: "For those who have tried VR, no explanation is necessary, for those who have not, none will suffice."
We're currently in the middle of what's being described as the 'second wave' of virtual reality. In the late 80s and early 90s there were some truly terrible headsets that you strapped to your face, where you pretty much stared straight into a single oscillating pixel as it attempted to bore into your soul. That was the first wave.
More recently, the technology has made some significant bounds forward and with releases of high-end headsets like the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, and cheap, accessible headsets that use smartphones as the screen like Samsung's GearVR and Google Cardboard.
But the main thing that's going to make a difference for mainstream adoption is going to be good content, and this is where 2017 really started making a difference.
In this piece, we're going to be looking at some of the great content that 2017 offered up, the improvements we want to see from VR in 2018, and the headsets that are coming out.
Lone Echo
There are loads of VR experiences out there now, and most of them are terrible. To be fair to the developers, they are starting from scratch on a totally new format, so VR experiences not being as good as AAA video games or Hollywood blockbusters really isn't surprising, but if you're going to fork out the hundreds that a top-of-the-range headset costs, you really want content that makes the investment worth it.
The real first of this kind is Lone Echo. You're an AI called Jack, housed in a robot body, on a spaceship floating through space. That's already three things on the wish fulfillment tick list ticked off so we're off to a good start.
And this is a thing that VR does brilliantly. It doesn't just show you a world that you can't see in reality, it actually puts you in it. A common feeling that people have from using VR is that the memory of the experience feels like a true memory of doing that thing. And that was our own Gerald Lynch's experience when playing Lone Echo.
What really helps Lone Echo is that it solves the problem of motion in a very clever way. For most VR experiences you have to use controllers to move yourself around the space or 'jump' using buttons, which leads to a disconnect between your physical and virtual bodies, causing some pretty savage motion sickness.
In Lone Echo, you move the way you really would in space; you grab your surroundings and push, launching yourself through the vessel. It allows you to feel truly weightless which is remarkable as you still keep your feet solidly on the floor.
It started as an Oculus Rift exclusive, but is now available for both the Rift and the HTC Vive. It isn't available on the cheaper headsets, but that's because it requires some serious computational power.
Hulk SMAAASH
One of the big things getting pushed in VR at the moment is the 'communal' nature of it. With Facebook (and many others) creating experiences where you can hang out with others across the world around a digital campfire or its like, but the main problem is that you're interacting with a digital avatar which just isn't as good as a video call.
it could potentially be better if there was a direct video feed of the person, but then you'd be encouraging people to look at you with a VR headset on, which none of us are keen to do.
One solution is, rather than trying to pretend that we're all just hangin' out like a group of pals, you make it a collaborative game where you all get to be superheroes. One of you gets to be Hulk. Another Deadpool. Another Rocket Raccoon. Who wouldn't want that? Idiots. That's who.
Watching Hulk on the big screen picking up henchmen and tossing them through the air is fun, but actually grabbing their puny heads in your gargantuan hands and watching their tiny bodies flail as you smash them into the floor is indescribably wonderful.
This isn't some wonderful dream; this is Marvel Powers, a Marvel game that is currently an Oculus Rift exclusive, but may well be coming to HTC Vive at some point in the future. Don't get us wrong, the game isn't perfect, but as a communal VR experience, it's one of our favorites so far.
This is the Void you're looking for
Continuing the theme of communal VR experiences, one of the areas that shows the greatest potential with virtual reality is the VR arcade. 2017 was the year that introduced Mario Karting on an actual Kart simulator in VR (which we're frankly desperate to try, but we can't afford the ticket to Japan), but that wasn't the only arcade experience available.
We went to try out The Void's Star Wars experience, Secrets of the Empire, in London's Westfield shopping mall, and were seriously impressed. When you get to actually move around in a physical space that matches the virtual one, you feel as though you've been transported to a different world.
In it, you play as a rebellion soldier dressed as a Stormtrooper, breaking in to Darth Vader's fort on the lava planet Mustafar. There's something incredibly thrilling about a blast of hot air hitting you as you turn towards a stream of lava.
And this is the thing about VR - it only really engages a couple of your senses, so any technique that engages more of your body and truly immerses you is welcome.
Well, we say any, but we've seen some absolutely ludicrous VR accessories, including a Kickstarter for a device that straps to your headset and blows wind onto your cheeks so that you feel as though you're really flying through the air, or an arrow is whizzing past your cheek.
This is gimmickry at its very highest, but there is something hilarious about it.
In 2017 we also tried the Birdly machine, a device that you strap your body into so that you can control your flight through a city by flapping your featherless human limbs, strapped prone with a VR headset on, while surrounded by onlookers. Dignified it isn't.
If you could just strap your legs into the stirrups for me
But not all the accessories are so ridiculous. Sony's Aim controller for PlayStation VR is actually a pleasure to use. That's nice because otherwise you're using the Move controllers, which are pretty outdated.
With the Aim, you have an actual tangible gun you can hold in your hands that makes using a virtual weapon feel much more real.
It came out in 2016, but there were pretty much no games for it at the time. There are still only a few, but there will only be more coming in 2018, and to be honest, it hasn't slowed down the rate at which people have been buying the PSVR.
Cheap headsets
In 2017, PSVR was the VR headset that shipped more than any other, selling over two million units. While we don't have exact figures for the industry's highest quality headsets HTC Vive or Oculus Rift, estimates are that PSVR is in the lead by quite a margin.
The HTC Vive Focus
This is thought to be because both the big players started out with a very high price tag, so the PSVR managed to have a fidelity and form-factor that was better than the smartphone-powered Google Cardboard and Gear VR but without breaking the bank.
What's interesting is that now HTC and Oculus are bringing out cheaper, wireless headsets. HTC's offering is called Vive Focus, and the one from Oculus is the Oculus Go. Both offer totally standalone VR experiences, and are aiming for the average consumer rather than the early adopter.
The virtual Catch-22
Early adopters are often lumbered with being the testing ground for a new technology. It has its benefits, but you end up in beta-hell a lot of the time.
What's interesting about VR is that there's no distribution model that can quickly grow an audience. More adopters are needed to create enough of an audience that it's economically viable for content creators to invest in the medium. However, the audience won't invest in the medium without content that makes doing so worthwhile.
L'arrivée d'un train en gare de La Ciotat
Many parallels are (very fairly) being drawn with the early days of cinema when audiences (reputedly) fled from theatres in fear because they thought the train travelling towards them was actually going to crash into them.
Over the years, film-making has evolved, taking in the technologies of animation, special effects, and the many different types of narrative until we end up with the rich and varied film industry we have today.
Undoubtedly VR is a new medium, but the problem with the investment model was perfectly summed up by Raindance Film Festival (opens in new tab) founder Elliot Grove: "It's a really exciting new medium that is much more like immersive theatre than it is film. But you can only admit one audience member at a time."
And while the price of a 'ticket' isn't a lot, having to buy an expensive piece of equipment in order to then buy a ticket is a massive hinderance.
The HTC Vive, with controllers and sensors
What's quite interesting is that the fidelity of even the top-of-the-range headsets isn't good enough for major content producers to make full feature-length films (or whatever a VR film is going to be), the industry as a whole is moving towards cheaper, lower fidelity headsets.
VR's kissing cousin AR is given the advantage of being able to live on smartphones, meaning that when Apple released ARKit, there were instantly millions of AR devices already in the hands of users.
There is an ongoing discussion about whether AR is going to be the death of VR, or whether there may be a device, like the Magic Leap, that ends up being able to amalgamate the two currently disparate mediums.
It feels very much like in two years time VR is going to be absolutely incredible. It just needs to find a way to survive until then. Watch this space.

**Turning web forms into conversations.** Conversational Form is an open-source concept by SPACE10 to easily turn any form element on a web page into a conversational form interface. It features conversational replacement of all input elements, reusable variables from previous questions and complete customization and control over the styling.

Learn why we did it

![Quick demo](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/space10-community/conversational-form/master/docs/readme-cf.gif)

Below you will find guides to inlcude the ConversationalForm into a page containing a form or try a quick demo

# Getting started

Include ConversationalForm in your page

```html
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://conversational-form-0iznjsw.stackpathdns.com/conversational-form.min.js" crossorigin></script>
```

ConversationalForm will automatically look through the DOM for a form element with the attibute `cf-form`, and auto-instantiate.
```html
<form id="my-form-element" cf-form ...>
```

That's it! Your form is now conversational :thumbsup:

## Optional attributes

**cf-context**
If you want to have the ConversationalForm appended to a certain element (when auto-instantiating) then add attribute `cf-context` to an element, otherwise the ConversationalForm will be appended to the body element.
```html
<div cf-context ...>
```

**cf-prevent-autofocus**
If you don't want to have the UserInput to auto focus.

```html
<form id="my-form-element" cf-form cf-prevent-autofocus>
```

## Customization

For more control over the output exclude the attribute `cf-form` from the form element and instantiate either with vanilla JS or jQuery:

### Self-instantiate with vanilla JS

```javascript
new cf.ConversationalForm(<ConversationalFormOptions> {
	formEl: <HTMLFormElement>,
	// dictionaryData?: {}, // overwrite the default user Dictionary items
	// dictionaryRobot?: {}, // overwrite the default robot Dictionary items
	// context?: // context of where to append the ConversationalForm (see also cf-context attribute)
	// tags?: tags, // pass in custom tags (when prevent the auto-instantiation of ConversationalForm)
	// submitCallback?: () => void | HTMLButtonElement // custom submit callback if button[type=submit] || form.submit() is not wanted..
	// flowStepCallback? (dto: FlowDTO, success: () => void, error: () => void) => boolean // allow for a global validation method, asyncronous, so a value can be validated through a server, call success || error

```

### Instantiate with jQuery

```javascript
$("form").conversationalForm(<ConversationalFormOptions> {
	...
});
```

## Parameters to pass the constructor of ConversationalForm: <ConversationalFormOptions>
* **formEl**: HTMLFormElement | string
* **context**?: HTMLElement | string
	* Set the context of where the ConversationalForm will be appended to
	* If not set then ConversationalForm will get appended to document.body
* **tags**?: Array<ITag>
	* [cf.Tag.createTag(element), ...]
* **dictionaryData**?: object
	* Possibility to overwrite the default [dictionary](https://github.com/space10-community/conversational-form/blob/master/src/scripts/cf/data/Dictionary.ts), empty will throw error, see [Dictionaty.ts](https://github.com/space10-community/conversational-form/blob/master/src/scripts/cf/data/Dictionary.ts) for values
* **dictionaryAI**?: object
	* Possibility to overwrite the default [dictionary](https://github.com/space10-community/conversational-form/blob/master/src/scripts/cf/data/Dictionary.ts), empty will throw error, see [Dictionaty.ts](https://github.com/space10-community/conversational-form/blob/master/src/scripts/cf/data/Dictionary.ts) for values
* **submitCallback**?: () => void | HTMLButtonElement
	* An alternative way to submit the form. Can be a Function or an HTMLButtonElement (click will be called). If not defined the component will search in the formEl after a button[type="submit"] and call click() if not button is found final fallback will be to call submit() on formEl.
* **userImage**?: string
	* Set a different userImage. "..." //base64 || image url

## Map your own tags
The Conversational Form automatically detects the accepted tags in the passed in form element.
If this is not desired then you are able to define your own **tags**, and pass them into the constructor.:

```javascript
var fields = [].slice.call(formEl.querySelectorAll("input, select, button"), 0);
for (var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) {
	var element = fields[i];
	tags.push(cf.Tag.createTag(element));
}
```

Tags can then be set in the instantiation object, see [ConversationalFormOptions](#ConversationalFormOptions)

# DOM Element attributes

#### input pattern="" attribute
**pattern** attribute will automatically be used if set in tag.:
```html
<input type="text" pattern="^hello" cf-questions="Your answer needs to include 'hello'" ..
```

### cf-questions
* to map questions directly to a tag.
* seperate by | to allow for more questions, app will shuffle.
```html
<input type="text" cf-questions="What is your name?|Please tell me your name." ..
```

### {One way value-binding} with cf-questions:
For cui-questions, add {previous-answer} to insert the value from the previous user-answer.
```html
<input type="text" cf-questions="Hello {previous-answer}" ..
```
previous input could be firstname.

```html
<input type="text" cf-questions="So you want to travel to {previous-answer}" ..
```
previous input could be a select:option list with countries.

### cf-label
* set a label to the field, [type="radio"|"checkbox"]
```html
<input type="radio" cf-label="Subscribe to newsletter" ..
```

	* dto: FlowDTO
	* success: () => void //callback
	* error: (optionalErrorMessage?: string) => void //callback
```html
<input type="text" cf-validation="window.validateFunction" ..
```

### cf-error
* to map error messages directly to a tag.
* seperate by | to allow for more error, app will shuffle.
```html
<input type="text" cf-error="Text is wrong wrong|Input is not right" ..
```

# Public API

is right: Advertising Will Change Forever. Digital Spending Will Nearly Double in 5 Years, But Ad Budgets Won't.
This image was scanned from a fax sent to John by Sato Kuniko, a now retired Hakuhodo account executive. ?@In it he says that John's presentation skills were responsible for Hakuhodo winning what ultimately turned out to be 30 billion yen worth of media billings from Buena Vista International. Forgive me, I, too, was stunned.
73.4% say information found on Internet stimulates desire for purchase. Only 56% say the same of TV.
Due diligence requires us to note that the research results reported here are from an Internet research company, Ibridge, and reported in the February 2001 issue Senden Kaigi. Still the results are striking. Answers to Question No. 1 "From which medium do you first learn about new products or services?" show TV trailing the Internet by only 3.4% (75.8% vs. 79.2%). Other media fall way behind, with newspapers at 27.6%, radio at 4.8%, magazines at 21.0%, transit ads at 3.0% and in-store at 11.2%.
It is in answers to Question No. 2 "Which medium most makes you want to purchase new products or services?" that the gap widens, with TV at only 56.0% vs. the Internet at 73.4%. Falling still further behind are newspapers at 18.8%, radio at 1.6%, and transit ads at 1.6%. Magazines do a bit better on this question, at 28.4%, as does in-store at 22.2%.
The gaps widen still further in answers to Question No. 3 "To which medium do you turn for more information before making a purchase?" Here the Internet scores 57.6%, followed by in-store at 19.6%, TV at 12.6%, magazines at 6.6%, radio at 0.4% and transit ads at 0.2%.
The first ever 29-station, whole JR Yamanote Line poster rally campaign with different posters at every station was the first of two media innovations noted in the October 2006 issue of Senden Kaigi.
Ayase Haruka has starred in the dramas "Shouting About Love at the Center of the World"(???E????S??A??????????) and "White Night Travels"(?????s) and been featured in TV commercials for Ohtsuka Pharmaceuticals' Poccari Sweat sports drink. To celebrate the release of her new CD "Intersection Days" (?????_days), 29 posters were created, one for each of the 29 stations on Tokyo's JR Yamanote Line. Each poster featured a different image of Ayase and a line from the lyrics of the songs on the CD. According to a Victor Entertainment spokesman the use of the lyrics in 29 different posters was designed to stimulate imagination and attract fans.
If you want to sell cars, what better place to advertise them than in a parking garage. That seems to have been the idea behind the creation of a 3D ad combining an actual car with images and copy painted on the wall beside it in Roppongi Hills, Shibuya Parco, La Chic (Nagoya) and other parking garages in fashionable shopping areas.


Up to 12 percent of people are affected by kidney stones. And once you've had one kidney stone, you're 50 percent more likely to get another within the next 10 years. There's no one sure way to prevent kidney stones, especially if you have a family history of the condition. A combination of diet and lifestyle changes, as well as some medications, may help reduce your risk.
According to one 2013 study, men who took high doses of vitamin C supplements doubled their risk of forming a kidney stone. Researchers don't believe vitamin C from food carries the same risk.

Statement-
For years the work I did in ceramics was an effort to somehow express the beautiful nature of the material. Somewhere in the midst of this struggle I realized that the materials are there to allow you to say what you need to say, not to tell you what to say. So I gave up trying to control nature and decided to use what I had learned about the materials to express some ideas about nature itself and my place in it. — Kurt Weiser
Prints-
These prints are the beginning of an exploration into 30 years of private sketchbooks. Some books are 30 years old and others just weeks. The past stimulates the future and the present is a matter of interpretation. It's the exploration into the familiar that is always a surprise.
Prints are in editions of 10, 24 x 36 inches on a 30 x 44 inch paper, printed from Somerset 250 gsm linoleum cuts and printed at the Arizona State University Print Studio in Tempe, AZ, by Dan Mayer. Oleander and Flight Over Kansas are the first two of ten prints started in the summer of 2016. — Kurt Weiser
(b. 1950, lives and works in Tempe, AZ)
Kurt Weiser's ceramic work draws inspiration from rich evocations of plant life to narratives derived from myth and history, placed into highly detailed tropical landscapes. These images are meticulously painted onto porcelain teapots, globes and other vessels. As Weiser notes "the painting is the three-dimensional reality".
His most recent body of work includes linoleum-cut prints, inspired by decades of drawings from his sketchbooks. He has paired these prints with black and white vessels, relying on his graphic and fantastical style as the means for relating these rich narratives.
Weiser has shown internationally and throughout the United States, including solo exhibitions at the Montgomery Museum of Art (Montgomery, AL) the Museum of Contemporary Craft (Portland, OR) and the Holter Museum of Art (Helena, MT). His work can be found in numerous public collections, including Smithsonian Institution, Alfred University School of Ceramics, and the Los Angeles Museum of Art among many others. Weiser received his M.F.A. from the University of Michigan and is currently the Regents Professor of Art at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona.
