Best Movies of 2015: Movies Released Before 2015
December 13, 2015 / Andy Wolverton
Actually (as you'll see in my next movies post), these movies were released before 2013. Each of these films I watched for the first time in 2015, in order of release date. These are the films I enjoyed the most, thought the most about, and/or recommended the most to friends. I hope you'll find something here to discover.
Judex (1916) Louis Feuillade (Flicker Alley DVD)
Last year I watched the Criterion Collection release of Georges Franju's Judex (1963), which I learned was a remake of a silent French serial from 1916. I enjoyed the Franju version enough to seek out the original, most of which I had the great pleasure to watch with Movies Silently and Now Voyaging while live Tweeting the film.
The silent Judex is a wonderful 12-part crime drama about a mysterious avenger known only as Judex (René Cresté) who seeks justice for the people wronged by an unscrupulous banker named Favraux (Louis Leubas). Judex has everything: mystery, suspense, action, and even a little romance. Think of Judex as one of the first filmed superheroes. Even if you don't think you like silent films, you should check this out.

Dr. Mabuse, the Gambler (1922) Fritz Lang (Masters of Cinema Blu-ray, UK)
I've been a big fan of Fritz Lang for years and after watching The Testament of Dr. Mabuse (1933) several years ago, I knew I'd also have to watch the first film in the series. You can read my full thoughts on this incredible film here.
Pandora's Box (1929) G.W. Pabst (Hulu streaming)
Like many other films in the Criterion Collection, Pandora's Box had been on my "to watch" list for years. After reading Rick Geary's excellent new fictional graphic novel Louise Brooks: Detective, I decided to watch her most famous film.
For those unfamiliar with the story, Louise Brooks plays a young woman whose raw allure and sexuality attract everyone around her, leading to lust, madness, and often violence. Yet Brooks as Lulu seems to think nothing of it, seeking good times wherever they may be found, despite the havoc she generates.
There's far, far more to this film than this, however, both on and off-screen. The film stands on its own as a silent classic, but viewers should also know a little something about Brooks herself, including why she abandoned Hollywood to make films in Europe, her thoughts on acting, her place in film history, etc. There are layers upon layers to Brooks's story and Pandora's Box plays an essential part in exploring them. A proper review of this classic will require at least one more viewing and I hope that Criterion will give this film a Blu-ray upgrade soon.
The Hound of the Baskervilles (1939) Sidney Lanfield (MPI Media Group Blu-ray)
The first and best of the Basil Rathbone/Nigel Bruce Sherlock Holmes films. Read more about it here.
The Palm Beach Story (1942) Preston Sturges (Criterion DVD; library)
The Palm Beach Story is a wonderful screwball comedy about a woman named Gerry (Claudette Colbert) wanting to divorce her husband Tom (Joel McCrea) so she can marry a millionaire who can then help finance Tom's business. Rudy Vallee plays the millionaire on Gerry's radar, but she hadn't counted on the millionaire's sister, played by a fast-taking Mary Astor. The whole film is great fun and even the switcheroo ending can't spoil it.
The Fallen Idol (1948) Carol Reed (Criterion DVD; library)
It may be sacrilege, but I'm not convinced The Third Man is Carol Reed's greatest film. It might be The Fallen Idol. Read on…
The Lusty Men (1952) Nicholas Ray (Warner Archive DVD)
I never found the time to adequately review this excellent film, a (then) modern-day western that seemed practically buried until Warner Archive released a nice DVD edition of the film in 2014. However, I highly recommend this excellent review from Out of the Past: A Classic Film Blog.
The Quatermass Xperiment (1955) Val Guest (Kino Lorber Blu-ray)
I've found so many people who don't know about this outstanding British science fiction film. Don't you be one of them. Read more about it and why you should watch (if not own) it here.
The Train (1964) John Frankenheimer (Arrow Academy Blu-ray UK)
One of the supplements on the Arrow UK Blu-ray touts The Train as the last black-and-white action/adventure film. That may be true. It may also be one of the finest adventure films in either black-and-white or color. The plot is fairly straight-forward: while the Allies are days away from liberating Paris from the Nazis, a trainload of art is being sent to Berlin. A French Resistance fighter named Labiche (Burt Lancaster) runs the train yard. Labiche cares nothing for the art on the train, only for his countrymen who might die in protecting it. In contrast, the German colonel (Paul Scofield) in charge of moving the art by train, appreciates the artwork and wants to please Hitler by delivering it to him before the Allies can arrive.
Although the film is over two hours long, Frankenheimer wastes no time. Every scene, every shot is essential and moves the story along. This isn't an action movie along the lines of Die-Hard or the Bourne films. For one thing, the film includes real trains running down real tracks, real wrecks, and real bombings using real dynamite. The action is balanced with lots of scenes brimming over with reflection, conflict and inner character suspense. Lancaster is very good here (doing his own stunts), but he might just be upstaged by the brilliant Paul Scofield. When they say "They don't make movies like they used to," this is one of the ones they're talking about.
I purchased the Arrow Blu-ray from the UK (for about $17) since the American Blu-ray from Twilight Time is selling for outrageous prices (used copies from $89.95 as of this writing).
Running on Empty (1988) Sidney Lumet (Warner Archive DVD)
Somehow this one slipped by me in the 80s, which is hard to believe since I'm a big Sidney Lumet fan. Read more here.
Jackie Brown (1997) Quentin Tarantino (Netflix streaming)
Off the Map (2003) Campbell Scott (DVD borrowed from my friend Dana)
Off the Map is one of those films you've probably never heard of, but should. Young Bo (Valentina de Angelis, in her first role) is only 11-years-old, trying to grow up in the New Mexico desert with a mom (Joan Allen) who gardens in the nude and a father (Sam Elliott) who, because of his depression, can't hold a job.
Enter a young IRS agent (Jim True-Frost) who's investigating the family for failure to pay their taxes. None of their lives will ever be the same, but probably not in the way you're thinking. Directed by Campbell Scott, incredible performances (including one by J.K. Simmons) and a quietly strange coming-of-age vibe make Off the Map worth seeking out.
Gone Baby Gone (2007) Ben Affleck (Netflix streaming)
I think it's time we (and yes, I) give Ben Affleck some credit, especially after watching this story of Boston private detective Patrick Kenzie (Casey Affleck) trying to find a kidnapped four-year-old girl. Casey Affleck is somewhat physically slight, which works well in this film, as he has to stand toe-to-toe with guys like Morgan Freeman, Ed Harris, Titus Welliver and others. The performances are excellent (including an Oscar-nominated performance by Amy Ryan as the girl's drug-addicted mother) and the hard-hitting story from the novel by Dennis Lehane doesn't pull any punches… until the end, which doesn't quite measure up to the rest of the film. But give the Affleck brothers credit. This is a very effective film.
My Week With Marilyn (2011) Simon Curtis (Anchor Bay Blu-ray)
I'd like to thank Leonard Maltin and Baron Vaughn for recommending this film on their podcast Maltin on Movies. Although it was nominated for two Oscars (Michelle Williams for Best Actress, Kenneth Branagh for Best Supporting Actor, neither winning), My Week with Marilyn should've been nominated for more. It features fine performances by Judi Dench, Emma Watson, Julia Ormond, Dougray Scott, and more, but the performance of Eddie Redmayne (this year's Best Actor winner for his portrayal of Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything) could certainly have earned a nomination. The set design, costumes, cinematography, and music are all top-notch.
Based on a memoir by filmmaker Colin Clark, My Week with Marilyn is far more than a Marilyn Monroe biopic. In fact, the film is more about one small segment of her life and how she affected those around her (for good or ill). Although in 2015 we're inundated with news on celebrities, this film shows us a time when it was so easy to become attracted to and infatuated with movie stars, all the more so when they're mere inches away from you. If you're just looking for a good, entertaining movie, you can't go wrong with this one.
Headhunters (2012) Morton Tyldum (Netflix streaming)
As was the case with the previous film, Headhunters was mentioned on Leonard Maltin and Baron Vaughn's podcast Maltin on Movies as a sleeper that many may have missed. I caught it on Netflix streaming and was amazed at the twists, turns and flat-out tension, to say nothing of its breakneck pace. Based on a novel by Norwegian author Jo Nesbø, Headhunters is about a professional art thief who picks the wrong victim. I won't tell you any more than that, because half the fun of the film is in letting it blow you away at full throttle. In Norwegian and Swedish with English subtitles.

The Lusty Men certainly was one of the nicest surprises of the year for me as well. Love Mitchum, especially unconventional Mitchum. The Fallen Idol is somewhat hard to find. Luckily our library had one copy left in the system (since the Criterion DVD is out of print). Eager to hear/read your thoughts when you see it!
Kristina Dijan
Also wanted to add that I agree about The Train, it's not nearly well-known enough but so great.
I loved Judex! I also enjoyed the 1963 version, but the 1916 silent is a real treasure. I must try Diary of a Lost Girl as well in 2016. So many on my "blind spot" list!
Judex I have on my "blind spot" list for 2016, plus you remind me I might add Diary of a Lost Girl too.
I'm hoping The Fallen Idol will get a U.S. Blu-ray release soon. There's a brand new UK release that looks tempting…
nowvoyaging
The Lusty Men was a film that completely took me by surprise and I loved it! So glad you did too! I've wanted to see the Fallen Idol for a long time but haven't gotten to yet!

This is just one of the recommended places whom my Dad-in-Law's favorite Restaurant's in this neighborhood. Considered as the largest casual dining chain in the world. What I love most about this place is the friendly and welcoming atmosphere and the service they input to the customers. Imagine a store manager or a store supervisor greets us in a casual manner and all you could feel is a connection of comfort while you dine in. Maybe, it is not the same experience with what you have in other places but here, this is the right place to entertain a family dining out. If you happen to visit Ocean Springs, Mississippi, visit Applebees at 1601 Bienville Blvd or call them at 228.872.8270.


Facebook Saturday said it will no longer require employees to resolve sexual harassment claims via arbitration, mirroring a move by Google.
The change of workplace rules at the world's leading social network will allow complaints of such improprieties to be aired openly in court.
"Today, we are publishing our updated Workplace Relationships policy and amending our arbitration agreements to make arbitration a choice rather than a requirement in sexual harassment claims," Facebook corporate media relations director Anthony Harrison told AFP.
"Sexual harassment is something that we take very seriously and there is no place for it at Facebook." The Silicon Valley-based internet firm's policy about workers dating one another was also modified to require executives of director level or higher to tell the human resources department when they are dating another employee at the company.
Arbitration of harassment claims at Google will be optional instead of obligatory, according to chief executive Sundar Pichai, a move that could end anonymous settlements that fail to identify those accused of harassment. "Google has never required confidentiality in the arbitration process and it still may be the best path for a number of reasons (e.g. personal privacy, predictability of process), but, we recognize that the choice should be up to you," Pichai said in a memo shared with AFP.
A section of an internal "Investigations Report" will show numbers of substantiated sexual harassment concerns as well as trends and disciplinary actions, according to the California-based company.
He also said Google is consolidating the complaint system and that the process for handling concerns will include providing support personnel and counselors.

Homes for Brighton & Hove
We are partnering with CALA Homes, through a Section 106, to provide 119 homes over the next four years at the Shopwyke Lakes development, Chichester.
The site is located close to the City of Chichester, and benefits from a picturesque setting, in close proximity to the city centre. The area is very popular with commuters as it is close to both the A27 and also to the mainline station.
The scheme is on a previously undeveloped lake site boasting a wealth of ecological features which will be maintained and enhanced for the benefit of the completed development. The development offers an environment with green open spaces, footpaths and waterways. The proposed facilities will include access to football and cricket pitches, a clubhouse, community centre, children's play areas and a convenience store. New pedestrian and cycle routes are also included in the proposals, with a bridge over the A27 to ensure safe and easy access to the city centre. The project should see the delivery of a sustainable and desirable neighbourhood to live in.
We will be producing a total of 119 properties across three phases; the final phase completing at the end of March 2021. Of the 119 new family homes, 57 are for affordable rent and 62 for shared ownership, all being a mix of one, two, three and four bedroom homes.
Phase 1a completed in December 2017. Phase 1b is now underway with the first 5 units in this phase handing over in May 2018; the rest of phase 1b completed in October 2018. Phase 2 commenced in November 2018.

Q: How to hide editor tabs in Intellij? I have set Tab Placement: None  in the Editor|General|Editor Tabs :

But as shown the editor tabs do appear anyways:

So what is the correct way to hide them?

A: "Tab placement" is a setting for editor tabs.
On the second screenshot, tabs do not belong to the editor, but to open projects. You can force IDE to open projects as new windows (instead of tabs) in system settings:

This is one of the projects we made at our club class last night. It was a big hit with the ladies and they were amazed at how simple, yet beautiful this technique is. This is called "Emboss Resist" — start out with Whisper White cardstock, stamp the doily image with VersaMark ink, emboss with White Embossing Powder, sponge with desired ink color, and voila! A gorgeous effect! This sample was sponged in a circular motion using Pear Pizazz Ink. I applied a large amount of pressure in the center of the doily, but less and less as I moved out to the edges. I really like the shading that is provided by doing this. I think this photo is a little washed out, but the green is more noticeable in real life.
If you look closely at the bottom of this card, along the torn edges, you will see some stamped images from Delicate Doilies. This stamp set provides 4 smaller doily images. I love all of them 🙂 I used Soft Suede and Pear Pizazz cardstock for the other 2 layers, along with a verse from Teeny Tiny Wishes. The bow was made with Pear Pizazz Seam Binding. I misted the ribbon (before making the bow) with Stampin' Mist, scrunched it up in a ball and then laid it aside to dry. Instead of tying a "traditional bow" with a knot in the center, I took a Vintage Trinket and attached it to the center ribbon. You will need to PRY the prongs open a bit in the center, force the ribbon up in the gap, and then apply the brad as you normally would to your cardstock. I liked how the brown trinket seemed to tie the color scheme together and gave it even more of a vintage look.
I gave the ladies the choice of this green version, or a blue version, and I'll show you that one later in the week. We all agreed that snowflakes would be gorgeous with the technique. I'm hoping to find time to create one of those cards, too!
I love the look of this card. I have been wanting that set, so guess I am going to have to order it soon. Love seeing all your creations.

Home > Italy > Viva la Riva!
Riva del Garda has a stunning location situated at the northern tip of Lake Garda, with a backdrop of spectacular mountain scenery. Our suggested itinerary includes visits to medieval towns, the majestic Dolomites and the romantic city of Verona.
We will arrive at our hotel in Riva del Garda this afternoon with time to settle in prior to dinner this evening.
Today, we will stay in Riva del Garda and spend some time in the beautiful old piazza surrounded by cafés and bars with lakeside views. During our leisurely day we could enjoy a stroll from Riva to Torbole on the lake-side path, it is only about 3km and will take approximately 40 minutes to walk (one way). Alternatively we could also take a relaxing return boat trip to Limone sul Garda, Malcesine or Torbole and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
This morning we will visit the ancient town of Malcesine, perched on the lake's edge under the shadow of breathtaking Monte Baldo. We can take the cable car to the summit for spectacular views across the lake and the Dolomites before exploring the cobbled streets of the old town below and the Captain's Palace. In the afternoon we travel via the scenic lakeside road to the pretty walled town of Lazise with its paved lakefront promenade and fine sandy beach. Lazise also has a wonderful old town centre, with narrow alleyways, picturesque squares and harbour. The 12th century Church of San Nicolo is known for its frescoes while the Scaliger Castle is also medieval but can only be admired from the outside, being privately owned. We can return to Riva via the motorway for a circular route or alternatively drive back via the lakeside again.
Today, we travel north to the dramatic Dolomites and enjoy a scenic tour of this outstanding area. We will travel over the pass at Madonna di Campiglio where we can marvel at the spectacular views of the Brenta peaks before visiting charming and pretty Lake Molveno.
This morning we will travel to romantic Verona, one of Italy's oldest cities. Verona is the fictitious home of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and here we can visit Juliet's balcony and admire the beautiful Roman amphitheatre, home to world-famous opera productions. We can enjoy lunch in the Piazza Bra, the largest piazza in Verona, lined with numerous cafés and restaurants. Verona is a shopper's paradise with something for everyone from the daily market in Piazza delle Erbe, which is the perfect place to find a bargain, offering a great selection of local produce, to the stylish designer shops at Via Mazzini.
Sadly, we must leave Lake Garda and begin our journey home.


The Centralized Storm Information System (CSIS) has been in place at the National Severe Storms Forecast Center (NSSFC) in Kansas City for two years. CSIS represents a major step toward providing the operational meteorologist a truly interactive, information handling and display system. The system consists of a GOES receiving antenna system, four Harris/6 computers, three interactive_ terminals, FAA "604" teletype input, two autodialers and are interfaced to the NSSFC computer. CSIS has had a dramatic and positive impact on the operations of NSSFC. The continued tailoring of the system to meet the operational needs of NSSFC has produced a high degree of forecaster acceptance and dependence on CSIS. Verification of tornado watches has shown a significant increase in skill since the implementation of CSIS.

Q: integrating java web apps from development to production I developed a web application Using java EE 6, its a very small web application for a starting business organization,
I did all the testing on it for performance, correctness, and so on, and we bought a server for hosting our web application and did all the necessary work (static ip, application servers set up... etc.)
Now, I want to move it to production stage, what is the difference between production and development environments? and how to change the stage of the project (application) from  Development Environment to Production Environment?
(i.e how to move the application from my local machine to the server).

A: Create a WAR file and deploy it on the production server.  Set up any JNDI lookups you need on the production server.  It should be no different from your local setup.
I'm assuming that the service you're paying for is not just a web server (e.g. Apache or IIS).  You need a Java servlet/JSP engine at minimum or a full-blown Java EE app server.  Is that what your agreed to with your provider?

A: the difference between those environments, is that you usually put more resources on the production servers (more memory, more disk/database storage, CPU capabilities, clusters, etc) than the development env since that "production" environment is going to be used by end users on a potential daily basis, and you don't want any to find your server down do you?.
In the other hand, the development environment is meant to be used just by the development team, it doesn't need as many resources as the production one because the development is something measurable and relatively small and, if in any case, the server is down at a specific moment, you can boot it up again and you won't receive any complain about absence of service from your clients.
However, as other answered, both environment should be as identical as possible (same app server, same database server, etc), just with different hostnames.

A: I don't think so there is any difference between production and developement enviroments. Moreover, everyone tries to keep developement enviroments indetical (or very similar) to the production one.
Production means only that on this particular environment people work instead of developement and test environments where developers/testers are doing their jobs...

'You forget what it's like' - Aston Villa player opens up after transfer switch
Aston Villa latest | James Bree discusses his time at AVFC and his hopes for his loan spell with Luton Town in the Championship this season
Alex DickenSenior Football Writer
Get all the latest news and analysis delivered straight to your inbox as Steven Gerrard takes over as Aston Villa head coach
James Bree says he 'forgot' the feeling of playing football while he was frozen out at Aston Villa.
The 21-year-old right-back joined Villa from Barnsley two and a half years ago but found life tough under Steve Bruce.
He played just seven games in his first season, 10 in his second and 11 in the 2018/19 campaign before Dean Smith loaned him out to Ipswich Town in January.
Bree kicked on a little with Ipswich, making 13 starts as they were relegated from the Championship. And Villa have since loaned him out to second tier newcomers Luton Town.
He's started two of their opening five league fixtures, as well as two Carabao Cup matches.
Speaking to Dunstable Today, Bree said: "Being at Ipswich last season, for the last six months of the season, I realised that I need to be playing football at this stage.
"Obviously I've always wanted to be playing football weekly, but once you get out of the rhythm of playing, you forget just what it's like to be out there playing, the feeling that you get.

"I'm really motivated and I can't wait to get a good full season underneath my belt. I think it's going really well for myself so far, I've settled in pretty quickly.
"I've been looking at a few places this week, to get myself moved in so I'm out of the hotel, it can kick on from there."
Bree was often used out of position at Villa Park, filling in at centre-back and left-back when required.

But he's now looking forward to a consistent run of games in his natural position under Graeme Jones at Kenilworth Road.
"Back when I was at Barnsley I was an attacking full back. I like to get forward and get on the ball, get crosses in the box.
"The past few years I've probably gone away from that more, been a more defensive one, and I want to get that side back into my game."

The career of Murray McLauchlan is long, storied — and coming to Saskatoon
After spending time in Italy, Murray McLauchlan picked up new guitar techniques that have added a new sound to his music. He performs Thursday at the Broadway Theatre
Even after a career spanning more than four decades, 19 albums and 11 Juno Awards, Murray McLauchlan said he's always learning new things about his music. And he's excited to come back to Saskatoon to give people a taste of what he's picked up.
"I love Saskatoon … how cool is it that you've got a statue of Mahatma Gandhi?," he said with a laugh.
McLauchlan is on tour once again, bringing his talents to a tour of the Prairie provinces. The singer/songwriter famed for his country and folk songs has enjoyed an illustrious music career — but he said he likes to go on tour when he thinks he has something new to "show off" to a crowd.
And after spending time in Italy, McLauchlan said he's picked up new guitar techniques that have added a new sound to his music — and helps show off just how skilled he can be on the strings.
"It's un-Canadian to blow your own horn, but I think people sometimes didn't really realize that I can play the damn guitar pretty well," he said. "So I think there's an element of surprise … and that's pretty pleasing to me, to surprise people in that way."
Throughout McLauchlan's career, he hasn't always toured alone. A number of his performances — including the last time he was in Saskatoon — came as a part of the ensemble Lunch at Allen's alongside other Canadian musicians Marc Jordan, Cindy Church, and Ian Thomas. But this time the tour is focused on him and the music from his newest album Love Can't Tell Time. His tour is taking him through cities all through the province, including to the Broadway Theatre in Saskatoon on Thursday and the University Theatre in Regina on Friday.
McLauchlan said his new guitar techniques have helped him foray more into old-school jazz standards, and said one of the best compliments he'd received of his new music was that the people had a hard time telling his original music apart from the old classics.
The new album came about on something of a whim, as well. McLauchlan said he and a friend were just playing some music together one day when the friend said they should try recording the songs. The pair stepped into a recording booth, and the album as it was released contains a lot of that essentially live, impromptu session.
But this tour has a little extra meaning for McLauchlan. He knows he's been playing for a long time, but he doesn't want to be considered an "old" musician.
McLauchlan wants his tour to carry an "anti-ageism" message — it's something that he said was in some of the songs he'd recorded for his new album, and that means a lot to him now.
"It's really about the idea that, as you move through life and you move into the latter part of your life, it's an enriching experience," he said. "The title song is about the idea that love can happen with just as much power and intensity at any time in your life."
The style might be a little different for his new music, but McLauchlan said his approach hasn't changed. Every night is a little bit different, he said, and the only thing that's really different is how he handles his nerves. Once upon a time, they made him sick to his stomach. Now, it's more like a burst of adrenaline that propels him out into a show.
And for everyone in the crowd, McLauchlan hopes that energy is contagious.
"Some nights, it's like magic," he said. "Like the golfer who can hit the 300-yard drive straight down the middle, you do that once and you're hooked for life."

The playoff push is upon us. Performance-driven breakouts and injuries have opened up some opportunities for players who could shine in Week 12. Here are some under-the-radar options at each position that you might want to take a look at for your starting roster. Some of these may be waiver claims, others may be players on your roster that may finally be worthy of a start this week.
Taysom Hill, New Orleans at Denver - The secret is out. Sean Payton is right. Taysom Hill can throw the ball pretty well in addition to being a tough stop as a runner. It's also good to know he surprised many, myself included, and attempted 23 passes, completing 18 (half of which went to his top target Michael Thomas with 9 catches for 104 yards). This week's opponent, Denver, will have their hands full with trying to figure out what Taysom Hill is going to do. Will he pass, run, pass on the run? Denver has been fairly decent against opposing quarterbacks lately (10th best in fantasy points against quarterbacks in the last four weeks), but previous success goes out the window with the Saints' unknown offense coming to town. Hill could once again top 20 fantasy points and be a decent start for us this week.
Andy Dalton, Dallas vs Washington - It appears as if Dallas has found their preferred quarterback after Andy Dalton led the team to a big road win against the Vikings last week. Dalton tossed three touchdowns in the win, he got Ezekiel Elliott more involved, and it didn't hurt that Zach Martin moved to right tackle to help bolster the weakened offensive line. Dalton and the Cowboys will have a tough battle against the Washington Football Team on Thanksgiving Day. Washington is second in the league in sack percentage and could make things more of a challenge for Dalton. Having said that, if you're in a two-quarterback league and you need a body, anybody this week, Dalton has earned his way to another start. You can safely drop Garrett Gilbert if you were holding out hope for him to take over.

TRON Expands to Indonesia, Pairing TRX with Rupiah
Nicholas Holden Follow on Twitter June 3, 2018
Undoubtedly, one of the most anticipated MainNet launches in the cryptocurrency space revolves around Tron. The launch took place on the 31st of May and the beginning of 1st June and did not disappoint critics as the entire space got to see the presentation live. While the Tron community is still celebrating the moment Tron gained its independence, the team at Tron was working relentlessly to promote their currency and blockchain protocol to the rest of the world. As at this moment, Tron has made public its expansion into Indonesia along with Indodax to trade with Rupiah.
#TRON $TRX #TRX will be available to trade with $Rupiah at @IndodaxOfficial, deposit starts from June 4th 2018 at 8:00 WIB, trading starts from June 5th 2018 at 15:00 WIB.???? pic.twitter.com/YXdHZsB8mo
— Justin Sun (@justinsuntron) June 3, 2018
Sun hinted at the possibility of expanding to Indonesia back in March. This comment was after the news about Binance's expanding its platforms operations to Malta, positively affected the value of Tron. Sun went on to tweet on a previous tweet from Joseph Mescat, the Prime Minister and Leader of the Indonesian Labour Party, mentioning how much the country was interested in blockchain technology.
The positive market reaction to the news on Binance can be attributed to the fact that Binance is one of the top exchange platforms in the crypto-market for TRON. The exchange oversees a total of approximately $129 million worth of TRON traded daily. Binance, which is currently the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange platform by trade volume, expanded to the Mediterranean Sea, to take advantage of the growing interest in blockchain technology in the region.
After a successful expansion into Eastern Europe, Tron is moving to Indonesia, to expand their reach in Asia. The digital asset exchange based in Indonesia, Indodax, entered into a partnership with Tron in a bid that will see Tron expand its reach within the country. TRX will be available for trade with the Rupiah through Indodax. This new pairing makes TRX one of the few cryptocurrencies paired with the Rupiah.
The trading pair, TRX/Rp will begin trading live from June 5th at 15:00 WIB after Indodax users start making their deposits from June 4th at 8:00 WIB. Indodax had made the announcement officially through their official Twitter account, welcoming Tron to their platform, 'with open arms.'
Selamat Datang Tron (TRX) di Indodax https://t.co/ohhrkvmSYa pic.twitter.com/NDL9DvFH6c
— Indonesia Digital Asset Exchange (@IndodaxOfficial) June 3, 2018
Indodax has listed a few cryptocurrencies in their exchange platform. Some of these Cryptos includes Bitcoin (BTC), Ripple (XRP), and Ethereum (ETH). Indodax is worth $23.4 billion by market cap, with Storiqa, Tokenomy, and Bitcoin occupying the top 3 positions
Tron is currently valued at $0.063, with a market cap of approximately $4 billion, earning Tron the 10th place position in the rank of cryptocurrencies by market cap. There has been a constant juggle between IOTA (MIOTA) and Tron (TRX), as the two compete between each other for the 9th position in the rank. However, Tron has dropped its momentum as it fell short of catching up with IOTA even after a successful MainNet launch, while IOTA has gone up a notch to secure its 9th position with a margin difference of more than a billion in market cap.

Q: Windows Azure live media encoders provide live transcoding? I have a simple question - I want to stream live video + audio. I would like to use Windows Azure for that (mainly because it seems to provide HLS with AES protection which I have not encounted in opensource solutionsand clear for managers pricing per streaming user) I amtrobuled because of next quote:

Currently, Media Services does not provide a live transcoding service.
  You can use one of the following third party live encoders that output
  RTMP or Smooth Streaming formats: Elemental, Envivio, Cisco, RGP
  encoders output Smooth Streaming; Adobe Flash Live, Wirecast and
  Tredek encoders output RTMP.

And a few lines after

You can deliver your live stream in any of the following formats:
  Smooth Streaming, DASH and HLS. When doing live streaming, HLS is
  packaged dynamically and the default HLS packaging ratio is 3 Smooth
  fragments to 1 HLS segment (3:1).
  ...
  Configure a live transcoder.
Every time you reconfigure the transcoder, call the Reset method on
  the channel.

So no transcoding is provided yet I shall set up a transcoder... What? How?
In FFmpeg there are 2 types  of transcoding

*

*from one encoded data format to another (say PCM raw data to encoded MP3 frames)

*from one frame/packet type to another (say MP4 frames of already encoded audio/video to FLV frames format with same encoded data in them)

Do they try to tell me that they provide frames repacking from RTMP to HLS yet no live encoding into another compression type (say from Speex audio to AAC)?

A: As I answered on your another post, you can use tool like Wirecast 6 to encode your live stream and push the stream into Azure Ingest URL. We will give you a publish URL that could dynamically package content into HLS, Smooth Streaming and DASH.
For more information, please refer to this post: http://azure.microsoft.com/blog/2014/09/10/getting-started-with-live-streaming-using-the-azure-management-portal/

A: Yes. The second type of transcoding you describe can be better named transpackaging because no video coding is done.
Transcoding is not provided. Transpackaging is provided.

Q: ImageView can't find image URL I have problem with displaying images in the GridPane. I got error that Input stream must not be null. Exception is in first row of the creating object of ImageView. As you can see pictures are in folder. What can be a problem.
    ImageView windows = new ImageView(new Image(Main.class.getResourceAsStream("res/windows.png")));
    ImageView linux = new ImageView(new Image(Main.class.getResourceAsStream("res/windows.png")));
    ImageView mac = new ImageView(new Image(Main.class.getResourceAsStream("res/windows.png")));
    ImageView android= new ImageView(new Image(Main.class.getResourceAsStream("res/windows.png")));

    GridPane gpanel = new GridPane();
    gpanel.setPadding(new Insets(5));
    gpanel.add(windows, 0, 0);
    gpanel.add(linux, 1, 0);
    gpanel.add(mac, 0, 1);
    gpanel.add(android, 1, 1);

A: That's because it's not finding the images, you need to remove the res at the beginning of the path, so for example:
This: "res/windows.png" -> Should be: "/windows.png" ...and so on.
Because getResourceAsStream(String name) finds a resource with a given name via searching resources associated with the class and it starts from the root of your project but because res is not another package, so you don't need to add it to the beginning of the relative path.
Furthermore, suppose that you have the windows.png in another package called anotherPackage, then you can access it from your main Class (in your example) like this: "/anotherPackage/windows.png".

The Karen Teacher Working Group (KTWG) ran a short training for parents of schoolchildren in its effort to raise awareness to get them involved in their children's education.
On the 31st of July, two teachers from the KTWG's Mobile Teacher Training provided a short training course to parents of school children in Chaw Tho Khee (Kyout Hpyar) village, Kyaik Hto Township, Mon state on how to raise their schoolchildren.
Teacher Saw Myo Htike, who led the training told Karen News that even though the one-day course, related to Parents Education, was a short, he believed parents gained new knowledge and ideas from it.
More than 50 parents attended the course held in Chaw Tho Khee (Kyout Hpyar) village. The short course included teachers explaining to parents on how to divide work and study time with a timetable for their school aged children. There was also a question and answer session where the teachers and the parents discussed the issues around parent education.
Saw Lu, one of the parents who attended the course said he would be applying the knowledge he got from the training.
KTWG said that even though other courses of training were provided last year in Kyaik Hto Township, this is the first time it included teaching the parents. Following the initial course, it is planned to follow-up in Zee Taw (P'Loh Khee), Hpa Ka Due (Kya Kha' Hta), and Mar Lar Hpue (Paw Hpaw Lue) villages in Kyaik Hto township.
Chaw Tho Khee (Kyout Hpyar) village is a remote village in hill region far away from Kyaik Hto Town and it is in the Karen National Union (KNU) control area. Chaw Tho Khee village tract includes Chaw Tho Khee itself and Maw Paw Law (Moe Baung), T'Waw Thaw (Chaung Saunt New village), Hpoo Hpa Doh (Nat Sin), K'Maut Khwin, Kaw Kat, Htee Wah Klu Khee (Wah Boe Chaung), Tae Dae' Khee, and Ma Rue Khee (Mae Yone Kyi) village.
KTWG provides parent education training with parents on how to raise their schoolchildren every rainy season in Thaton, Taungoo, Nyanglebin, Megui/Tavoy, Mutraw, Doo Playa and Pa-an district – the seven administered districts of the KNU control areas.

Volkswagen Reveals Ducati Panigale-Powered XL Sport
Wed, 01 Oct 2014 00:00:00 -0700
The Volkswagen Group-Ducati relationship has finally birth its first child, with the German manufacturer revealing the XL Sport concept car powered by the 1199 Superleggera's V-Twin engine at the Paris Motor Show. Though only a concept model, the XL Sport received the special honor of being the 200 millionth vehicle produced by the Volkswagen.
#456475582 / gettyimages.com
Based on the earlier limited-production VW XL1 car, the XL Sport swaps out its diesel plug-in hybrid powertrain for Ducati's 1199cc engine which claims 197 hp and 98.8 ft-lb. The engine is only slightly modified for the XL Sport, maintaining its titanium connecting rods and Ducati's desmodromic valve system. Vents in the rear fenders direct cooling air to the engine.
Volkswagen did develop an intermediate gearbox to reduce the engine speed by a factor of 1.86, as well as a seven-speed dual clutch gearbox to deliver power to the rear axle.
A key philosophy behind both the original XL1 and the Ducati Superleggera was to keep it as light as possible for an impressive power-to-weight ratio. Volkswagen tried to continue that with the XL Sport, claiming a weight of 1962 pounds. Combined with an aerodynamic design (VW claims a drag coefficient of 0.258), Volkswagen says the XL Sport can reach a top speed of 167.8 mph with a 0-100 km (0-62 mph) acceleration time of 5.7 seconds.
The XL Sport's features include a monocoque frame, gull-wing doors, ceramic brake discs, LED headlights and fender-integrated cameras and digital displays that serve as mirrors.

SFO-bound plane diverts to Michigan after report of fire on board
Jun. 1, 2017 12:00 a.m.
A San Francisco International Airport-bound plane from New York had to divert to Michigan on Tuesday night because of reports of a lithium fire on board, airport officials said.
JetBlue Flight 915 had departed shortly after 5 p.m. Eastern time from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York but had to land at Gerald R. Ford Airport near Grand Rapids, Michigan, after reports of the fire onboard, according to the Michigan-based airport.
The plane landed without incident and no injuries were reported among the 158 people on board. The fire had been extinguished before the plane landed in Michigan, airport officials said.
After the local fire department cleared the scene, the plane refueled and resumed flying to SFO, where it landed shortly after midnight.
No other details about what possibly caused the fire were immediately available.
San Francisco, what do we do about the Davis-Oliver Act?

Whoops, I forgot I had to do one of these, so I'm going to get in, get out, and go to bed. The Twins won, we swept the Royals in KC, baseball is fun again, Duensing was on top of his game, there's some cool pictures from the WGOM get-together in the CoC, I can't think of as many things to say when the Twins win as when they lose. That's all I've got.
Hitter of the Week: I suppose I ought to give one of these to Alexi Casilla before he turns back into Alexi Casilla.
This is the Twins' fourth three-game winning streak of the season and they do not have a four-game winning streak. So, the Twins are due, right? This will be the third time that Duensing is the starter as the Twins go for a fourth consecutive victory.
The Twins have followed the three previous three-game win streaks with six-, nine- and four-game losing streaks, so the Twins need to find a way to keep this going, but the current health of their roster is likely to make this difficult. With a lefty on the mound, I wouldn't be surprised if both Justin Morneau and Denard Span get an extra day off to help with their minor injuries.
Duensing is 0-5 in his last six starts. This bad stretch started in Kansas City, so hopefully coming full circle will help Duensing put an end to it.
Alexi Casilla is now hitting .301/.370/.390 in his last 34 games (119 PAs). The Twins desperately need some production and consistent defense from a middle infielder, so this is a good sign. GO TWINS!!!
There appear to be no players with connections to the Minnesota Twins born on this day.
The Twins have a three-game winning streak, as prophesied in my Thursday game log. Now they're a mere 17 games under .500!
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire rubbed the champagne out of his eyes as he reflected on the wild ride of the past five months that had concluded with the franchise's third world championship following another epic seven-game World Series against the Philadelphia Phillies.
"I've never had as much fun managing a team as I have these past five months," Gardenhire said. "But I've never been as miserable managing a team as I was the first two months."
So, what keyed the turnaround?
"No. 1 was getting healthy," Gardenhire said. "It was ridiculous there for awhile. They should have just called us the Red Wings. I'd never seen anything like it. Once we got our horses back, we started to play like we expected to. Then we started to get our bullpen straightened out as well as healthy. Chuck James was just a godsend. He gave us three strong lefties along with Glen Perkins and Jose Mijares. Then we could match up Slama with righties, who have a real tough time with his motion. Of course, just getting Joe Nathan healthy enough to resume his closer role was big so Cappy could go back to setting up.
"But what I think really helped us turn it up to a high level was getting back to Twins-brand baseball."
Was there any point in the season to point to that began the turnaround?
"That series in Kansas City in the beginning of June," Gardenhire said. "We had almost the entire starting lineup on the DL or on the bench with injuries, so we had almost no power at all in the lineup, so we talked to the guys about just being more aggressive with the small ball. Taking extra bases, hitting-and-running, bunting, that sort of thing.
"Lexi (Casilla) and Benny (Revere) really took to it. It was fun to watch."
That series was during Casilla's resurgence. Casilla had nearly played himself off the roster with his terrible hitting and inconsistent defense the first six weeks of the season, but Casilla turned it around and became a key member of the Twins and formed an exciting double-play combo with Tsuyoshi Nishioka. Revere, of course, took advantage of the injuries and played so well he eventually displaced Delmon Young as the starting left fielder.
With Revere and then Nishioka added to the lineup along with Casilla and Denard Span, Piranhas II: The Comeback was born.
Last night at my mother-in-law's retirement party, the subject turned to our favorite baseball team. The (extremely drunken) consensus seemed to be that the team should trade Mauer to beef up our relief pitching. That's not a joke. That's an example of the fine analysis straight from the type of people whom I am privileged to talk sports with on a day in, day out basis with. You guys are truly a lifeline.
I mocked Swizzlestick last week, and he responded with might end up as the best Twins start of the season. Do I have to make fun of Blackburn's mom or something? Because so help me, I will.
As it turns out, Blacky's actually been doing pretty well, last start excepted. Tonight, he goes against Luke Hochevar, who has to be about the most "Royal"ish Royal out there. I feel pretty good about the Twins chances of grabbing a third straight, as well as my chances of picking up a third game log victory.
I spent all yesterday moving. The armoir is awesome but it weighs literally a million pounds. Literally.
in what is sure to be a gratuitous star-grab, i give you sun ra, in all his glory.

Traditions Encounters Volume 2 From 1500 To The Present
Traditions & Encounters offers an inclusive vision of the global past—one that is meaningful and appropriate for the interdependent world of contemporary times. Given the diversity of human societies, gathering and organizing the sheer mass of information in a meaningful way is a daunting challenge for any world history survey course. The seven-part chronological organization enables students to understand the development of the world through time, while also exploring broader, big-picture thematic issues in world history. Through new and revised chapter-level and part-level features, the hallmark twin themes of traditions and encounters emerge in greater clarity than ever before in this sixth edition. As a result, students have resources that enable them to move beyond the facts of history and examine the past critically, analyze causes and effects, and recognize similarities and differences across world regions and time periods. By digging deeper into the implications of world history's stories—not just the who, the what, and the where, but also the why and the how—students can make sense of the human past. Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, and how they need it, so that your class time is more engaging and effective.

Traditions Encounters A Brief Global History
Author by Herbert Ziegler
Connect students to the stories of history. Connect students to the experience of history. Connect students to success in history. At McGraw-Hill, we have dedicated the past few years to deepening our understanding of student and instructor experience. Employing a wide array of research tools including surveys, focus groups, and ethnographic studies, we've identified areas in need of improvement to provide an opportunity for greater learning and teaching experiences. The fifth edition of Traditions & Encounters is a result of this. Traditions & Encounters also has a rich history of firsts: the first world history text to take a truly global perspective on the past; the first to emphasize connections among cultures; the first to combine twin themes with a seven-part framework, making the huge story of world history more manageable to both teach and learn. Now Traditions & Encounters becomes the first truly interactive world history program: one that marries groundbreaking adaptive diagnostics and interactivities with a captivating narrative and engaging visuals, creating a unique learning environment that propels greater student success and better course results. Instructors gain insight into students' engagement and understanding as students develop a base of knowledge and construct critical thinking skills. Chapter-opening vignettes and a lively narrative keep students turning the page while the adaptive questioning for each chapter and the personalized study plan for each individual student help students prepare for class discussions and course work. With its hallmark of twin themes, Traditions & Encounters continues to tell the story of the cultures and interactions that have shaped world history, while adding redesigned maps, new primary sources, and new chapter- and part-level features that strengthen connections and prompt students to analyze the events and themes in order to build a greater understanding of the past and an appreciation of history's influence on the present. Students are no longer simply reading; they are reading, interacting, and engaging in a visual, auditory, and hands-on learning experience. Give students an experience. Improve course participation and performance. Experience Traditions & Encounters, and experience success.
Looseleaf For Traditions Encounters Volume 2 From 1500 To The Present
Traditions Encounters
"On the basis of a superficial inspection, Traditions & Encounters might look similar to several other textbooks that survey the world's past. Like other books, for example, Traditions & Encounters examines the historical development of societies in Asia, Europe, Africa, the Americas, and Oceania. Yet Traditions & Encounters differs from other works in two particularly important ways. First, it relies on a pair of prominent themes to bring a global perspective to the study of world history: it traces the historical development of individual societies in all world regions, and it also focuses attention systematically on interactions between peoples of different societies. Second, it organizes the human past into seven eras that represent distinct and coherent periods of global historical development"--Preface (Page xvi).

Cinematic Encounters 2
Eschewing the idea of film reviewer-as-solitary-expert, Jonathan Rosenbaum continues to advance his belief that a critic's ideal role is to mediate and facilitate our public discussion of cinema. Portraits and Polemics presents debate as an important form of cinematic encounter whether one argues with filmmakers themselves, on behalf of their work, or with one's self. Rosenbaum takes on filmmakers like Chantal Akerman, Richard Linklater, Manoel De Oliveira, Mark Rappaport, Elaine May, and Béla Tarr. He also engages, implicitly and explicitly, with other writers, arguing with Pauline Kael--and Wikipedia--over Jacques Demy, with the Hollywood Reporter and Variety reviewers of Jarmusch's The Limits of Control, with David Thomson about James L. Brooks, and with many American and English film critics about misrepresented figures from Jerry Lewis to Yasujiro Ozu to Orson Welles. Throughout, Rosenbaum mines insights, pursues pet notions, and invites readers to join the fray.

Traditions And Encounters
Transcendence And Violence
The first two parts of this book present four detailed historical studies, filled with Geertzian "thick description," of the encounters of Christianity and Buddhism (universal religions with a high quotient of "transcendence") with various primal religious traditions ("biocosmic" or "immanentist") of the Asian-Pacific region, namely, Aboriginal Australia and Melanesia (Christianity) and Sri Lanka and Japan (Buddhism). In each case, the encounters represented a failure of the "great" traditions. In the third, constructive and theological part of the book, the author shows how an acknowledgment of these failures may provide a back door to dialogue.

Love is in the air, but so are fossil fuels. As global warming drives the mercury skyward, the price of chocolate (that is cacao) is rising just the same. Plagued by a number of factors, like increased demand, poor soil conditions, deforestation and aging trees, the velvety confection we all know and love could potentially get harder and harder to come by. This is why big name manufacturers are shelling out billions of dollars to help preserve a weakening industry.
Increased demand not only stems from the availability of milk chocolate in countries where it was once a rare delicacy, but more-so the rise in production of high fructose corn syrup, milk fats and industrial engineered fillers that make 'chocolate-like' confections super cheap.
Other elements driving demand is the fact that cacao (the whole bean itself) has in recent years topped the super-food list due to the high antioxidant capacity of the flavonols in the whole bean. From a health and sustainability perspective, choosing chocolate that's no less than 70% dark will ensure the majority of these super-food properties are intact, and purchasing Fair Trade will ensure farmers are paid a fair wage, and the trees are treated with the same respect as the farmers.
So what's a choc-o-holic to do? Invest in green technology? Buy a chocolate farm in Africa? Take a nod from the 'chocolate tree huggers' around the world and vow to show your loved ones that you care in a more sustainable way. Instead of buying up boxes of chocolate-like confections that drive up demand, save the world AND your lover's waistline.


Design your own canvas tote using freezer paper stencils. This freezer paper stenciled tote is perfect for going to the market or as a gift!
I just want to start off by proclaiming my love of canvas tote bags. Actually, strike that. I really, really, really dislike those plastic sacks they give you at the supermarket. They don't even ask anymore if I prefer paper or plastic, they just throw my food into those flimsy bags, and it's all over the trunk of my car by the time I get home from the market. Plus, they are a pain to recycle and are just junk. Which leads me back to my love of tote bags. Particularly canvas ones because they are washable, and last for a long, long time.
Tote Bag Factory sent some PR samples of their canvas totes and I'm so excited to create with them. They are like a blank canvas…literally!
This tote makes a perfect gift for the wine lover in your life. It's cute and a little sassy honest. I used a digital cutting machine to cut the letters out of freezer paper, but you could easily create the same look using stencils from the craft store.
Wash the canvas tote and dry without using any fabric softener or lay flat to dry. The canvas will shrink a little, so don't skip this step.
Cut out your design using the freezer paper. Make sure you design it so that the glossy side of the the freezer paper faces down. If you are using a craft knife to cut out your design, it's easiest to draw or print your design on paper, then place it under the freezer paper and cut it like you are tracing the design. Remember to keep the middle parts of letters like a, b, g, o, p…etc.
Heat up the iron, making sure the steam is off. I made the mistake of having it on, and the freezer paper didn't stick well and warped a little. Lay the freezer paper cut out on to the tote, glossy side down and cover with a flour sack towel or other thin towel. Iron on the freezer paper, checking the edges of the cut-outs to make sure they are stuck down.

Using a foam pouncer, dip the pouncer in a bit of fabric paint. Pounce on paper a couple of times, so the paint isn't too thick. Pounce the paint on to your design lightly. It's best to use two thin coats rather than a thick coat. Once done, let dry then peel off the freezer paper. Follow the directions on the fabric paint, but mostly you will wait for the paint to dry for 24-48 hours, then iron it again.
This tote is perfect for grocery shopping or gift giving. Fill it with wine and other goodies and give it to your favorite hostess!
Tote Bag Factory has a ton of affordable totes in a variety of materials to choose from. Be sure to check them out!
I didn't realize freezer paper stencils were so easy! I'll have to revisit them now that I know. Thanks for the tutorial!
This is the perfect gift idea for so many of my friends! Thanks for sharing and linking up with me On the Edge.
