The following line of code is where I am having trouble with. const stream = await navigator.mediaDevices.getDisplayMedia({video: {mediaSource: 'screen'}}); I receive the following error message: TypeError: Cannot read property 'getDisplayMedia' of undefined A: You need https. navigator.mediaDevices is only available in SecureContext now in Chrome 74, Firefox 68, and in the spec, which means the object will be missing in insecure contexts (http). A: As jib answered, navigator.mediaDevices is not available when webserver uses HTTP scheme while not hosted on localhost, but with an exception in chrome/chromium: $ chromium --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://WEBSERVER_FQDN:PORT_NUMBER --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure command line option allows to loosen the restriction. It's useful for developing/debugging when HTTPS is not set up yet or you need to analyze raw unencrypted HTTP messages (i.e. wireshark).
Leeds Flood Alleviation Scheme LFAS2 aims to reduce flood risk to communities and businesses along the River Aire corridor between Leeds Rail Station and Apperley Bridge. Land Use, Food & Agriculture Flooding & drought over 10,000 people Flood defence walls and a raised footbridge at Milford Place, Kirkstall. by the Leeds Climate Commission A combination of traditional engineering methods and Natural Flood Management (NFM) will be used to reduce flood risk in Leeds. We're working with the Environment Agency on our Flood Alleviation Scheme Phase 2 (FAS2) to help protect 1,048 homes and 474 businesses. We're focusing mainly on the developed areas along the River Aire, upstream of Leeds Train Station and Apperley Bridge. FAS2 provides a one in a 200 year level of protection against flooding. This means flooding will be reduced to a 0.5 per cent chance of occurring in any given year, including an allowance for climate change. Once the scheme is completed, it will help protect against similar flooding to Storm Eva. It's important to form a multi-organisational board (eg. The Environment Agency, Network Rail, Yorkshire Water and others) to guide the project both in the early stages and throughout construction. A co-located project team makes a significant difference to delivering the scheme more efficiently as well as identifying opportunities to provide added benefits such as carbon reduction measures. Number of jobs created. Number of trees planted. Penpont Project Organised by Action for Conservation, the Penpont Project is the world's first large-scale, youth-led nature recovery project and a blueprint for how youth action and conservation can bring change.
Sarasa Ifu Born on 12/22/1983 as a Capricorn, Sarasa Ifu grew up in a perfect environment to become a musician with Yosui Inoue as her father and Seri Ishikawa as her mother. She has always thought about 'becoming a singer someday' as a child, but as she grew older, she began to question if she 'had to pursue a career as an artist just to deliver to expectations of others.' She then decided to hide away her pure passion to do music deep inside her heart. Yet, music has always been a part of her life that a casual talk with her father one day became the lyrics of a song 'Nagai Neko' which was later properly released. Soon after, her passion for music that has been once locked away started to grow stronger and she began her activities as a lyricist. She wrote the lyrics for various artists such as Salyu and SS501 (popular K-pop group). With her intention of testing her own potentials, she tried out for a lyricist audition held by Sony Music without revealing who she really was. As she was recognized for her unique style of lyrics, Ki/oon Records signed a contract with her. She then began to think about directly singing the words that she wrote herself, so she made a debut as a singer with a single "Curriculum" on 12/5/2007. She also began to appear on TV and radio programs, especially in her hometown of Fukuoka.

Ty'Jier Terrell says he woke up to screams and the sight of his fellow youth-football teammates bleeding as their charter bus rolled down an embankment just outside Little Rock Arkansas. The Arkansas State Police were continuing Tuesday to investigate why the bus went off Interstate 30 near Little Rock, Arkansas, early Monday morning as Ty'Jier and his teammates were headed home to Memphis from a youth football championship game in Dallas, Texas. The driver, identified by state police as 66-year-old Eula Jarrett of Tennessee, told investigators she lost control of the bus, but it remains unclear why she lost control, officials said. Investigators said the weather was clear and road conditions were dry at the time of the crash. Police said the bus careened off the highway about 2:40 a.m. and rolled down an embankment, coming to a rest on his right side. Killed in the crash was 9-year-old Kameron Johnson, according to the Saline County, Arkansas, coroner. At least 45 other children and adults were injured, many of them suffering broken bones, contusions and head injuries. Police said the injured children ranged in age from 8 to 13 and were members of the Orange Mound Youth Association in Memphis. Ty'Jier suffered a gash on the right side of his head that required 18 stitches to close. "I was scared 'cause everybody was bleeding and I had a lot of blood all over my T-shirt before I changed at the hospital," Ty'Jier said. He said he escaped from the bus through an emergency hatch in the roof. Damous Hailey, one of the coaches on the bus, told the Associated Press that he was sitting behind the driver when the bus began to swerve, leave the roadway and tumble down the steep embankment. "You can imagine what happened when these kids were thrown around when their bus went flying at 50 mph into the forest," he said. The charter bus is owned by Scott Shuttle Services of Somerville, Tennessee. Representatives of the company did not respond to a request for comment from ABC News. Records show the bus company, which operates five vehicles and employs seven drivers, has previously been fined $3,250 in 2015 for violating federal license and periodic inspection regulations, according to records obtained by ABC News from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. In May, the company failed a basic driver fitness compliance review after one of its drivers was found not to have proper licenses to operate a bus, according to records. The company was fined $3,490. One of Scott Shuttle Services' buses was also involved in a minor crash with another vehicle in November 2017 in Jackson, Tennessee, according to the Tennessee Highway Patrol. No one was injured in the accident and no citations were issued. Hours after Monday's the wreck, students at Coleman Elementary School in Memphis were told that their classmate, Kameron Johnson, a third grader, was killed. "You just saw heartache. You saw our hearts broken. You saw tears. You saw hugs," Nickalous Manning, superintendent of Aspire Public Schools, told reporters. Mum fears daughter, 14, may have been groomed after she vanished on the way to a pal's house.

The stock market is flashing signals that point to a dot-com style bubble, but fundamentals are healthier now, Schwab says Carla Mozée Apr. 6, 2021, 5:38 PM Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. Spencer Platt/Getty Images High valuations and other factors have been driving comparisons between current US stock market conditions and those during the dot-com era, says Charles Schwab. But market breadth now is contributing to a healthier environment, according to the investment firm. More than 90% of the S&P 500's stocks are trading above their 200-day moving averages. See more stories on Insider's business page. Speculative behavior and other factors are inviting comparisons between current US stock market conditions and those during the boom-and-bust of the dot-com era, but today's fundamentals are more robust than two decades ago, according to investment firm Charles Schwab. A "rash of speculative behavior, an ever-increasing number of day-traders, and still-high valuations," have been driving talk about how stocks are performing now compared with the dot-com boom in the late-1990s and the bust that followed in the early-2000s, said Liz Ann Sonders, Schwab's chief investment strategist, and Kevin Gordon, senior investment research specialist, in a note published on its site Monday. The tech-concentrated Nasdaq-100 index during 2020 surged to its highest since its burst in the early 2000s. Then, the index "bore the brunt" of the bear market with its 83% slide between March 2000 and October 2002, said Schwab. The Nasdaq 100 since last year's high been whipped around, falling into correction territory in March as investors reassessed the jump in tech stocks that Wall Street, in part, considered as beneficiaries from COVID-19 lockdowns and changing consumer patterns. A correction is considered as a fall of 10% or more from a most recent high. "A handful of valuation metrics–including the S&P 500's forward P/E, the Buffett model, price-to-sales ratios, etc — have either met or exceeded the sky-high levels seen in the run up to the tech bust," said Schwab. "That has justifiably stirred up consternation among investors, but there are important caveats to note on why this current environment looks different." For one, when the Nasdaq 100 in 2020 hit its post-dot-com era high, the S&P 500 index "moved in tandem with it," the analysts said. "In the late-1990s, the Nasdaq 100 at one point almost doubled in six months and the S&P 500 didn't come close to matching that parabolic spike. Consequently, the epic rise in the Nasdaq 100 led to an epic collapse, which ultimately brought down the broader market." Secondly, market breadth differs now. For the S&P 500, breadth had started to "weaken considerably" starting at the end of 1997 and heading into the market's peak in March 2000, which at that point only 35% of its stocks were trading above their 200-day moving averages. Currently, more than 90% of the index's stocks are trading above their 200-day moving averages, which is "a much healthier backdrop as the market continues to advance," said the Schwab analysts. The "persistently solid breadth over the past few months has likely shielded the market from its greatest foe — frothy investor sentiment across many behavioral and attitudinal metrics," they said. The Nasdaq 100 has recovered some of its recent losses and was showing a gain of nearly 6% so far in 2021. It has climbed by 69% over the past 12 months. The S&P 500 has advanced by nearly 9% this year to reach record highs and has tacked on about 54% over the last year. Carla Mozée Rep.

Twins show potential when everything clicks By Fabian Ardaya ANAHEIM -- For much of the season, Minnesota Twins manager Paul Molitor has watched opponents take advantage of his young team's mistakes.The Twins were able to flip the script on Monday night, making the most of their opponent's gaffes as they roared to a 9-4 road win over the Angels.While ANAHEIM -- For much of the season, Minnesota Twins manager Paul Molitor has watched opponents take advantage of his young team's mistakes. The Twins were able to flip the script on Monday night, making the most of their opponent's gaffes as they roared to a 9-4 road win over the Angels. While the Angels struggled with sloppy play and committed three errors, the Twins looked sharp in what Molitor said might have been their most complete game of the year. "There's not a lot of nights where we've been able to complement all areas of the game and be efficient, and we haven't had that many games where we've had a lead of five, six runs going in late," Molitor said. Defensively, they were sharp. The lone mistake, an interference call on third baseman Trevor Plouffe, was quickly eradicated as starter Ricky Nolasco struck out Yunel Escobar to end the second inning. Plouffe bounced back to kick the offense into gear the next half-inning, taking a 76 mph changeup from Jered Weaver and driving it a Statcast-projected 405 feet out to left field for a three-run, tie-breaking homer. "[Plouffe] wiped the slate clean when he put three on the board," Molitor said of the homer. "Weaver was using his off-speed, like he always does, pitching backwards. He had a lot of us off stride early, but it was nice to see Trevor stay back on an off-speed and hit it out of the park." Plouffe took advantage of an Angels error from second baseman Johnny Giavotella, which negated a sure-fire inning-ending double play and instead left two men on the basepaths. "It's inexcusable," Giavotella said of his play. "I work hard on my defense, I take pride in [working on it] every day. I had a routine play there." The power surge continued throughout the night, as center fielder Byron Buxton also took Weaver deep for his first home run of the season. Left fielder Robbie Grossman added on in the seventh, taking a low fastball from reliever Al Alburquerque and driving it out to center field. Two more runs would score in the frame, in large part due to two errors from Angels shortstop Gregorio Petit. "They had a couple miscues on the defensive side," Molitor said. "We've paid the price for that this year. A lot of teams have capitalized on our defensive mistakes, and tonight it was nice to see that we were able to get some hits with extra outs." Nolasco grinded his way to a quality start, giving up three runs and scattering seven hits over six innings and 106 pitches. He was effective when it mattered, holding the first four hitters in the Angels lineup -- Escobar, Kole Calhoun, Mike Trout and Albert Pujols -- to a 1-for-12 showing. For one of the few times this season, the Twins had everything going. Fabian Ardaya is a reporter for MLB.com based in Anaheim.
Reddit is one of the most beautiful places on the internet. That is, once you've learned to navigate it's enormous well of content. Reddit is labyrinth. Our Subreddit Central series cherry pick the best subreddits for content gold, and save you the trouble of learning anything at all. One of the best-loved and most unique features on Reddit is their AMA ("ask me anything") series. People with unusual and interesting circumstances (often celebrities) field live questions from Redditors. These circumstances range from being president of the United States, to being president of Microsoft, to being a man with two functioning penises. If you don't have questions you'd like to ask a person in any of those situations, you suffer from a criminal lack of curiosity and imagination. And truthfully, some interesting responses are guaranteed regardless of who is opening themselves to these public interviews. Moderators may remove deliberately provocative questions, but the democratic comment voting system on Reddit is largely self-regulating. The best questions, comments, and answers will inevitably rise to the top on waves of Redditor karma. The ill-thought out contributions will sink to the bottom. The subreddit has a schedule of upcoming AMA times, so you can easily schedule the events into your day, and the option to request future AMAs from your personal heroes. The first president to appear on Reddit, also the first with the opportunity to do so. Part of the president's ably crafted 'approachable man of the people' image, gives some fresh insight into both the position and the man himself. But little insight into his political scandals. Bill Murray here: OK, I'll TALK! I'll TALK! Chris Hadfield is a Canadian hero. He's also clearly a Reddit addict, since he's done at least three AMAs to date. This one was conducted from space however, and is therefore the best. I am the guy with two penises. AMA. Yes, they both work. Yes, you can see them. Yes, it's kind of weird. I am "Weird Al" Yankovic – Ask Me Anything! He's not as weird as his name implies. A genial, well grounded man with a great deal of talent, who is as warm to his fans online as he is in real life. I am Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister from Game of Thrones). AMA! Tyrion Lannister might be the most well written dwarf character in history, aside from being an amazing character regardless of dwarfism. His condition influences every aspect of Tyrion's life, but one of his great strengths is the refusal to let it define him or his existence. Peter Dinklage brought the character to life in the HBO adaptation, and here responds to questions both personal and GoT heavy. Jerry Seinfeld here. I will give you an answer. One of the most successful and well-respected comedians of all time takes time from counting his enormous collection of cars to grace us with his presence. An ongoing mystery. I'll spoil this for you now – the Reddit does not solve the mystery of who this man is, where he came from, or where his family is now. Sad, but fascinating. Everyone loves Bill Nye. No explanation needed. I am John Fogerty – former leader of CCR. AMA. Nobody loves John Fogerty, but everybody loves CCR.

Pilkington Building Products has launched Eclipse Advantage, a solar control glass said to provide high light transmittance, reduced solar glare and subtle reflectivity. The company says the glass uses a pyrolytic coating to enable it to be cut, toughened, bent or fabricated into insulating glass units using standard manufacturing techniques. The pyrolytic process means the coating is chemically bonded to the glass at molecular level said to produce a harder, durable and stable material. The product is available in six colours including blue, grey, green and bronze and can be supplied in 4, 6 and 8 mm thicknesses. Ash & Lacy has collaborated with surface treatment technology company Keronite to develop a finish for Ashtech rainscreen cladding said to be resistant to harsh environmental conditions, such as coastal areas. Keronite's process is called Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation and it transforms the soft aluminium substrate surface into a hard ceramic coating that is said to resist corrosion, heat and wear. The manufacturer says the thin ceramic layer is atomically bonded to the aluminium, which prevents problems such as peeling or chipping. Formica has extended its woodgrain laminate range with the introduction of a surface finish called Naturelle, which has been developed to meet the growing demand for textured finishes. Naturelle's matt appearance is said to resemble that of planed, oiled or wax-treated wood. Outokumpu, a supplier of copper sheets and strips, has launched a process to provide prepatinated copper sheet that can be cut to any length. The Nordic Green Plus Prepatinated sheet has a green patina said to be similar to that formed over many years of exposure. The factory-prepared and prepatinated coils are available in traditional green or stippled "living green" finishes. Alsecco, a supplier of architectural facades, has developed a system called Alsecco One-Way to apply render more quickly. Instead of being applied with a hawk and trowel, render is sprayed on from a portable container then levelled out. The company says the spray nozzle stretches to a distance of 50 m from the container and that each container can hold the equivalent of 40 buckets of render. This is said to save time and minimise accident risk on site because workers do not have to constantly climb up and down ladders to replenish their buckets. Paroc Panel System UK has launched a framing system, designed in collaboration with aluminium window maker Aluman, to work with its structural cladding panels. Called the IFS system, it allows window and door units to be installed on site by being clicked into place onto the fixings, reducing build times. The manufacturer says the units do not require additional flashings or secondary structural support because they are delivered to site complete with integrated profiles. Technal has supplied architectural aluminium glazing to two buildings at the University of Limerick's campus. Technal has supplied architectural aluminium glazing to two buildings at the University of Limerick's campus. Designed by Murray O'Laoire Architects, the buildings feature Technal's grid curtain walling along with timber and zinc cladding and glazing, and top-hung casement windows. Welsh Slate's products have been specified for Swansea's £30m National Waterfront Museum. Architect Wilkinson Eyre selected 195 m2 of heather-blue slate, 125 m2 of heather-red and 248 m2 of dark blue-grey from Welsh Slate's Cwt-y-Bugail quarry in Snowdonia. The slate was installed as a facing material on prefabricated precast concrete panels. A research paper prepared by the University of Southampton on behalf of the Copper Development Association is said to show that the use of copper could help prevent the spread of flu. The association claims the paper shows that influenza A viruses, which include the bird flu strain, are virtually eradicated within six hours on copper surfaces. The study recommends the use of uncoated copper or high-copper alloys for door knobs and handles, push plates, countertops and sinks, to help minimise cross-contamination. Ward Insulated Panels has published a 400-page technical handbook on its range of insulated panels for roofs and walls. The manufacturer says the guide includes construction details, technical specifications, performance data, load tables and model specifications. It also covers ancillary products, fasteners and sealants and offers assembly guidance. SFS intec, a manufacturer of fasteners for roofing and cladding systems, has published a six-page brochure entitled Non-Austenitic Stainless Steel Fasteners. The guide helps specifiers choose the most appropriate grade of fastener material in order to avoid corrosion and maintain the integrity of the building during its lifetime. The brochure also provides a guide to common fastener applications in twin-skin, aluminium raised seam, composite panel and membrane roofs. Woodcare manufacturer Sadolin has published three specification guides on its exterior and interior timber protection products. The brochures cover Sadolin's translucent and opaque exterior coatings and heavy duty and polyurethane varnish for wood floors and interiors. The guides also provide illustrated examples of residential and commercial applications. An 18-page Guide to Copper in Architecture has been published by the trade body Copper in Architecture. It lists sources, characteristics, recycling and cost-effectiveness of copper sheet when used for roofing and cladding. The guide also covers environmental issues and copper lifecycles. Uniglaze 2, a manufacturer of sealed units and toughened glass, has moved into a £12m production facility in East Anglia. The company says it has invested in equipment including three automated computerised toughening plants and five automated sealed unit lines. The move will provide extra space and help the company keep up with orders, as new energy regulations have lengthened the time it takes to produce sealed window units. The Society of Facade Engineering has been formed by the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers along with the Institution of Structural Engineers and the RIBA. The body was set up to establish better collaboration between architects, structural engineers, service engineers and facade engineers in an attempt to improve the performance of facades and to encourage professional development and best practice.
Why was a warlord allowed to sue a British journalist? Ask chancellor Jeremy Hunt to explain himself 'As a former editor, I welcome many of these proposals': Response to Media Reform recommendations Andreas Whittam Smith Some of the recommendations for media reform by the Co-ordinating Committee are the best I have seen. At least they work with the grain of journalism as it is conducted. I shall mention those that seem to me to be workable. Statutory right of reply. The problem for editors in operating a strict right of reply - the response to appear with the same prominence and in the same place as the original article – was that, as I felt, it resulted in having to carry the wrong story in the wrong place on the wrong day. That is why nobody would do it. But the Co-ordinating Committee proposes instead that a right of reply should be summarised in a mistakes and clarifications section in the print edition and that item would cross refer to the online edition where the 'reply' would be reproduced in full, without comment, immediately below the offending article. Were I still an editor, I could live with that. Membership of a 'News Publishing Commission' that would replace the present body, the Press Complaints Commission. Here it is proposed that publications that choose not to become members of the new body, and to conduct themselves according to its principles would lose their VAT exemption. This seems a clever idea if the Government would pass the necessary legislation, though it may run counter to the old principle that all taxpayers in a particular class should be treated equally. Creation of a News Ombudsman who could operate as a first port of call for members of the public. Newly created News Tribunals, modelled on employment tribunals, would adjudicate on cases that are not resolved by the Ombudsman. This has the merit of being constructed in such a way that it could operate swiftly, though nobody can quite keep up with the 24 hours news cycle. Cross ownership rules and clear upper ceilings on the share across media markets. If tough rules limiting market share, such as apply to many industries, had been applied to the Murdoch empire 30 years ago, most of the problems that have since arisen would have been avoided. The Co-ordinating Committee proposes that any supplier with a 15 per cent share in a designated media market should be subject to a public interest test in respect of any merger or acquisition in the same or another media market. Yes, please, with the proviso that the test should be statutory and not subject to decision by government ministers. Likewise, I approve of the proposal that the maximum permitted holding of 30 per cent, again so long as no exceptions can be permitted. That is really the key point. No exceptions. The ownership rules to be rigidly enforced. If this means that publishing magnates are forced to sell some of their holdings, perhaps at an unfavourable time, so be it. How do we reform Britain's media? CCMR proposals and responses

Financial extreme risks revolve around solvency. The interconnected nature of the modern financial system and high levels of leverage mean that insolvency for one institution can quickly become a systemic problem. The primary triggers are falling asset prices and incomes. Financial risks can be self-generated (falling asset prices) and transmitted to the real economy, or generated by a recession in the real economy which reduces incomes and transmits to the financial sector through loan defaults. With public sectors increasing their leverage (debt to GDP ratios) we believe the risk of excessive debt will persist for a number of years. Economic extreme risks are less homogenous, ranging from a deflationary depression to hyperinflation and a return to a gold standard. The deflationary depression risk appears to have been reduced through policy action, but remains a potential hazard, in that it may not be possible for governments to counteract any future drop in demand. There has been an extended period of over-consumption (Western economies) meaning that businesses have built productive capacity to satisfy a level of demand unlikely to be reached for a number of years, as households increase their savings rate. The primary consequence of a depression is a sharp, and prolonged, increase in unemployment, with effects including a drop in consumption, restriction of credit, shrinking output, investment and numerous bankruptcies. This would be bad for asset prices and it is likely that there would be a flight to the safety of sovereign (nominal) bonds. The other economic risks essentially assume that government actions are successful, but at a price. A currency crisis - the breaking of a fixed exchange rate or expectation of a significant self-fulfilling devaluation, perhaps due to budget policy mismanagement or a lack of central bank reserves - could be profited from by holding unhedged foreign assets, but is likely to be disruptive to domestic asset returns, at least in the short term: the crisis will have been triggered by some form of economic malaise, reflected in lower asset prices. A currency collapse severely reduces a country's purchasing power and hence wealth. To the extent that domestic borrowing has occurred in foreign currencies, the cost of servicing that debt will rise, and hence increase the risk of default. At a more micro level, the equities of exporters should perform better than those of importers. Hyperinflation wipes out the purchasing power of savings, provokes extreme consumption and hoarding of real assets, causes the monetary base to flee the country, and investment ceases. The risks associated with sovereign default include penalty costs applied by external creditors on future finance and banking crises, as domestic banks tend to be large holders of sovereign debt. It is possible, that gold would act as a hedge against these risks, particularly as they would increase the likelihood of a return to a gold standard. We do not envisage that in the near future because escalating money creation is currently working fairly effectively to prevent a depression. However, should these efforts result in rising inflation, then the return to a gold standard would have a higher probability in future. Our third category of extreme risks mostly derive from politics, but includes climate change and killer pandemics. There is a high degree of uncertainty attached to any estimate of the likelihood of occurrence, and these risks will also tend to be much harder to monitor and predict - with the exception, perhaps, of protectionism. In most cases, these risks will be hard to hedge. For example, hedging the break-up of the euro may involve the use of credit default swaps (CDS) contracts, which introduce different risks. Adding food and water exposure to a portfolio may hedge climate change but might run the risk of confiscation in precisely the circumstances in which they became most valuable. Rather than attempt to give each risk a probability (the quantitative route), we assign them one of three risk categories - 'low', 'very low' and 'very, very low' (figure 1). We also assign each risk to an impact category: high implies a significant impact on most asset and liability values, medium a material impact on some values, and low an impact on a few values where the significance could vary. A subjective scoring system, combining the impact and the risk together with the degree of uncertainty in assessing the risk, produces a ranking (figure 2). We also show an 'association' matrix (figure 3). We use the term 'association' rather than correlation to communicate that this is a qualitative assessment of whether events are likely to occur together rather than a quantitative assessment of past data. This clearly indicates that we see the financial risks and several of the economic risks to be associated. A second cluster can be seen between the political and economic risks: for example, we assess that protectionism and depression have a high association. The primary causality is likely to run from depression to protectionism but we would also argue there is a weak causality in the other direction, as greater protectionism would weaken economic growth. Also clear from the matrix is that climate change and killer pandemic are truly independent risks. They may be loosely related themselves, but otherwise only intersect with political crisis (where the causality could conceivably work either way).
Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart argument video Obviously by now, you have all seen the Rob & Kristen argument vid. If you have not, then I dont know how or why you came to find my blog. The night starts further back. It starts back at like 7 PM when 3 or 4 hounds & paps were waiting at the residence with myself. At that time we were considering going to check out a red carpet event for the VIFF that apparently Jodelle Ferland & Daniel Curmore were scheduled to attend. This was the plan for a couple hours, infact it was the plan right up until I was ready to leave when things changed. Before we were about to leave I went for a short bathroom break. While doing so I got a call telling me Sam Bradley, Robs good friend was playing a short set at a fashion show, and that this was going to happen in less than 20 mins. I got back to where I was & was simply going to tell my friends "I gotta go" since theres an understanding that sometimes, no matter how good of friends you are, you cant share certain info if its someone elses. Ironically this would bite me in the butt again a bit later. So guess turnabout is fair play. Before I had a chance to leave I found out they too had the info. So with the cat out of the bag, we all left for this event. When we got there we found out the event was small & frankly, not a Rob type of environment. But, we sat on it incase. Afterall, this was Sams last night in town before he started a large 2 month tour. & we suspected Rob was going to see him at some point. The show ended & Sam left with his gf. No Rob. We then decided at that time to see if we could generate any leads & left the scene. Shortly after, I got a text from one of the various fans that ask ME for info usually. In it she asked if I had heard anything of the cast being in Kits. I had not & phoned her back to hear if she had more info on it. But got no reply. So I decided it wasnt overly worth pursing yet since thats a large area to cover & with no exact lead, not enough to go on. We decided to break into 2 units out of the group I was with at the time. We scoured the Gastown & Yaletown areas & some of the other notable hotspots. We were still empty & my friend decided to take a chance & check out the Kits lead. We scoured the area. Ironically, we didnt plass the 2-4 block stretch where they would be. After deciding there was nothing to go on immediately, we sat down & grabbed a bite to eat when we got a call from the other car "hey, have you heard of a place called Pinkys" he asked. The guy I was with, living near there had & we headed out for it immediately. Upon arriving I saw all the familiar faces there. Including someone who I had tried calling a couple times to see if he knew something, only to get his answering machine (remember the whole turnabout fair play thing.?). It was definitely the place. The place, Pinkys Steakhouse. We didnt have long to wait as we were some of the last people to show up for the event. Shortly afterwards Sam & a female were leaving. Got to admire Sam. Super class act. Even though he KNOWS why everyone is there, he still treats everyone with respect. Lots of friends of major celebs would scowl & look down at you. He truly is a great guy & its for this reasoN I actually hope he succeeds. Because he deserves it. We had a short chat about his tour & going overseas & he was excited to be going. Then he gave one final nod & left in a cab. Not too much longer after, John came out. Again, breif chat. He said their night was going well, chit chatted about the weather breifly, then it was time. The cab arrived & Rob would lead the charge. I had a great position & if I would just get it thru my head that situations like this are likely to generate little ot no autograph possibilities, maybe I would eventually clue in & just photograph or videotape. But I went for an autograph again. It wasnt going to happen. They beelined for the cab. Rob, Kristen & random woman who I have seen various people ID as Stephanie Ritz, but I myself cant confirm this, since I dont know what she looks like. The cab was leaving & the parade of vehicles were in pursuit. My driver was the lead car & had them from the word go till the final destination. On the drive there Kristen was repeatedly checking to see who was following. I've never seen her act so off about this. My friend even said during the drive "shes never like this". It was odd. Eventually we arrived at the hotel. We pulled over hastily & got out. No less than 4 people follwed up onto the property. Myself & my driver were a bit back & breifly caught them going in, while the other driver followed them right in. I'm not going to get into a 10 paragraph debate on right vs wrong of the situation. He even admits he hated doing it, so the level of unacceptable has certainly been set. My driver & myself went no closer than the doors, while he went right in & videotaped them waiting to get ont he elevator & of course, having the breif argument. The argument. Its why some of you are reading this. So here it is. It had nothing to do with the two random people that were there around the same time. Frankly, no idea what they were doing there. 1 of them gets in with R&K, so I dont even know if they were together, since the other one appears to leave. Quite weird & random & more importantly, irrelevant to the discussion. What you hear Rob say is "I'm sorry I paused.." This was undeniable. Oddly, I dont think I saw a single person say that in all the replies I saw places about the vid. Probably because people wanted it to mean more, or because arguing about pausing seems odd. Kristen replies "Can we just wait..". the second part there was disagreemnt over. " & do this in the elevator please?" or "till these people are on the elevator please?" I'm convinced it was the first, one of my friends thought it was the latter. In either case, kristen is basically saying in her own way "not right now Rob, people are here". It took awhile to figure it out, because we didnt get what they were talking about. What was he apologizing for? Perhaps we are wrong is our assumptions about the arguing point, but the dialogue was clear. Our assumption (all assumption at this point) is Kristen was annoyed at missing an elevator because she did her best Usain Bolt impersonation, while Rob casually looked to saunter at first, then realized he was supposed to be running. Seems silly by itself, but you can see Kristen was apparently in a bad mood & this annoyed her. When I posted that I called it "interesting material" people jumped to all sorts of conclusions. It is interesting, because you never see them publicly aruging like this. Personally, I was uncomfortable with seeing it because it was too personal of a moment. The videographer as well was unsure what to do. But he opted to sell it, as reality is, money is money. I can tell you he certainly does feel bad about it & I know many of you will debate how he can feel bad if it he did it blah blah blah etc. But people do things everyday they might not be happy about, have a choice NOT to do it, but still do....including most of you. The video will likely be spun by everyone to fit their needs. People who are pro-Robsten will say how its proof they are together because only people dating would argue over such a small thing. People anti-Robsten will say its just two friends having an argument. People against paps will point how this is an invasion of privacy. People who hate Kristen will say its proof shes a bitch. People who hate Rob will say how hes a pussy for letting Kristen walk all over him, blah blah blah. Stark reality is, NO ONE but Rob and Kristen...and maybe the other person that was with them in the cab, knows what the entire dispute was. Did we literally just hear 2 lines of a 10 min argument? Or was it literally a 5 second letting off of steam & forgotten by them? More importantly, who cares? I'm only discussing it because I was there & saw the vid before it was released & we debated over whether it should be put out or not. Otherwise my blog would have ended 4 or 5 paragraphs ago. Its not like they were arguing about a drug deal or where they hid a body. It was about "pausing". Seems really pointless, and if it were not for the over-analytical fanbase of this couple, it would be NOTHING. But because so many fans live vicariously thru "Edward & Bella" this matters to them...and because of that, this video is out there. Gossip cop & whoever else runs it are even MORE to blame. They bought it. They paid money for the material. Better late than never- Rob Pattinson leaves Bobby Long show- KStew bitch comment heard Sorry this wasnt posted sooner, but I really didnt think there was anything profound in it worth rushing to get it up. Its a few seconds ro Rob leaving in the cab at the Backstage Lounge show where Bobby Long was performing last week. Early on you hear the now infamous "Kristen you're a bitch" comment. Hearing it from where I was standing NOW, I have no doubt Kristen might have heard it as well. I was on the opposite side right near the drivers window & you can hear it quite clearly on my audio. Anyways, nothing overly amazing about the vid outside of that & the breif blips of Rob you see when he was lit up. But I know you all wanted to see some Rob...so here it is. Boneta pics- including 1 RPatts (grainy) and the mystery hoodie girl. So heres a handful of the pics from the Boneta restaurant. In the bunch is one of a girl wearing a hoodie....now call me crazy, but unless Kristen has a Nikki Reed mask, I am going to just assume its Nikki Reed. Call me crazy. Anyways. Except for a couple of the wayyy too close up shots, they are a bit grainy. I was trying to shoot without a flash, so I had limited light to work with. Robert Pattinson goes out for a bite to eat...with most of the cast. So as I just reported yesterday, Rob is getting the itch to go out. He considered it last night & opted not to. Tonight, he committed. A cast dinner (minus most or all of the human kids & Kristen Stewart) had a dinner tonight at Boneta Restaurant (which I have passed a thousand times on my way home, and always thought it could be a celeb hang out). The evening waspainfully dull. For hours we were staked out at the hotel with no sightings outside of Robs security guard going out to do laundry & have a jog. Rob had returned from his day of shooting scenes at Como Lake School pretty early & we were all convinced he was going to go out tonight for sure. The night dragged on, eventually it was around 9 PM when the first sign of life happened. Taylor Lautner left. A car trailed & found him at a restaurant just down the street, as it turned out he didnt eat there apparently. Just got dropped off there. Shortly after that the driver who followed returned & within minutes a cab with Kellan Lutz, Xavier Samuel, Ashley Greene & who we believe was Peter Facinelli left. We followed. They ended up at Boneta & soon we were hoping for a Rob & Kristen sighting. News would come to us shortly after that Taylor never went into that restaurant, but instead scooted across the street to grab Nikki Reed & Elizabeth Reaser & left. They were followed from ther,e but lost shortly after....ironically, close to Boneta. As it turns out, they got to Boneta before we did with the other cab. No one really knows when, but Billy Burke also showed up. Then it happened, and it was both sad & funny. With 4-6 LA paps, 2-3 Vancouver paps, 3 autograph hounds all just "hanging out" waiting for some of the cast to leave, who comes from across the street walking...ROB. Heres the kicker, NO ONE noticed him till he was literally passing them. With all those cameras in tow NO ONE was fast enough to snap off anything. He literally got in scott free. But where was Kristen was the next question. Kristen Stewart never came to the dinner. The ASSUMPTION (no proven fact, but strongly assumed) she went to dinner with her manager & brother, who recently got into town. An hour- hour & 1/2 would linger on, which included a multi person argument between the un-educated staff of Boneta & the wily veterans of legal loopholes, the paps. I videotaped much of it incase there was a need for it. In the end, outside of some unflattering comments & some light pushing, nothing was made & a truce was bartered between the manager of the place & the paps. I've seen how these "truces" usually work. Place theya re at says "we'll do the best we can to accomodate you". We agree & give them their space, and they try as hard as they can to fuck us over by sneaking them out back or side doors etc. With the exception of one nutjob who came out with Rob waving his hand going "no,no,no" they actually did what they said they would. They let us know they were about to leave, and didnt try to impeed our views, shots or anything. Quite civil in teh end. One cab showed up. I cant even recall everyone that got in. Just that I remember seeing Billy Burke & I THINK Ashley Greene & Nikki Reed leave. It left. A few more minutes would go by before the next cab was ready. It was showtime. Rob was going to come out the front door with 10 or so paps, 3 autograph houdns & a light dusting of onlookers. He came out, head slightly down, hoodie up, beelined for the cab & was in. Elizabeth Reaser and I THINK Xavier Samuel got in with him. From there they left & headed back to their hotels never to be heard from again. In the end it wasnt overly succesful for me or other autograph hounds. No autographs were had (except 1 Taylor...who left after everyone rushed out after Rob). Most of the paps there got something to satisfy their hunger & likely went away happy with the efforts. Like I said yesterday, Rob is dipping his toes into the pool a little longer each time. I expect more interactions to come. Hopefully next time I will have some actual luck. FINALLY..... The Rob, ... has come back......to the camera! After hibernating for more than a week Rob Pattinson poked his head out today. He was at the set for Twilight Saga: Eclipse & he was spotted by the paps & fans alike. At the David Thompson Secondary School which is the set for some of the high school scenes Rob was there to film scenes & the paps were there too...and FINALLLLLLLLY, they got him. They got him good. Photo company Splash News http://www.Splashnews.com got shots most everyone wanted to see, Robert Pattinson as EDWARD!!! I will not steal the images, instead I will provide links to sites that have (likely) legitimately obtained the rights to the pics. http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2009/08/first-look-robert-pattinson-vamping-eclipse http://www.celebuzz.com/robert-pattinson-shoots-eclipse-g130291/ This was so big that other companies on the job were a bit deflated from seeing that they got the shots everyone was there looking for. There was a sense of "what are we here for now?". But they still hung on till the end with the approximately 100-140 fans that congregated on the grounds hoping to catch a glimpse of the cast members. The cast was well concealed behind more tarps & gates than I've ever seen for anything. Sometime around 8 (I think) a cavalcade of vehicles left, including Robs, with his bodyguard in the front seat the chase was about to begin. I advised my friend to take to going the opposite direction of where they went since we had a bad angle to start. We caught up a few blocks later & followed him to his downtown residence, where several fans & paps were scouting the area. He drove in, with nothing for anyone to see. About 2 hrs later. Rob, Kristen, Ashley & Kristens manager were seeing walking along a walkway on the property....we thought we had them. We went where it lead....but they never came out. After 20 mins, KStews manager came out, talked with 1 of the autograph hounds, went for a short walk & came back. We still had things tightly covered. Shortly after that, her manager came back out...this time on my side. We chatted, he told me the cast had given up on going out, and that he was just going solo....then proceeded to leave on foot walking away, not to be seen again. We hung on for another 1/2 hr or so before finally pulling the pin. Although it was a fruitless day in the aspect of actually GETTING anything, it was useful in that Rob sightings usually lead to more. Things went like this last time. Nothing, nothing, nothing, breif sighting, nothing, nothing, breif sighting, breif sighting, nothing, everywhere, everywhere etc. I am hoping its the same. I compare it to someone testing water at a pool or the ocean. They dip their toe in first, pull away, then try again, then maybe a foot, then soon a leg, and soon they jump right in. Today he dipped his toe back into the pool again. Maybe tomorrow it will be a whole foot. If anything tonights near close call makes me feel hes itching to go for a swim. Maybe next time. Weekend Wrap - up....aka, fail supreme Friday was no picnic for me. It was my first day without a camera and I basically bitterly sulked about it. I am trying to remember going out Friday, but I cant. I dont think I did. If I did, it certainly wasnt for long. As it turns out from talking with a few people, it might have been a good day to be there. Turns out Rob & Kristen went out in the evening and NONE of the paps were there to see it. They were scattered about going for either Zac Efron or various wild goose chases. Even fans didnt see them leave. All that is known is that they were seen around 6-6:30 heading in the direction of the hotel by 1 fan, and another fan got a picture with Kristen at a starbucks. Besides the incredible miracle walk of K& R, there was little else that day. The typical sightings of Ashley, Xavier etc. It frankly sounded like, outside of that miracle walk by them, the day was a dull & boring repeat of most other days. Saturday I headed out early afternoon. I hadnt been there too long when Ashley was spotted going out. I went in for an autographand she signed 1. She then went on her way & I was excited, because Saturdays are usually productive & it seemed like a good start. From there the day dragged on..and on...and on. About 3 hrs went by before a Twilight cast member would be seen......it was Ashley AGAIN, this time she dragged Xavier Samuel with her. They came out of the front of the hotel. Walked around the building, back thru the massive courtyard, and back into the hotel. A total of 4 mins spent outside before they decided to go back in. Quite random, but it gave me enough time to snap off a few photos of them with the camera I have been lent by one of the local autograph hounds. People were suddenly revitalized, we were thinking a Saturday night would be alright. We were wrong. That would be the last cast member seen. Not even ONE single cast member was spotted going out for dinner, to grab a few drinks, party, anything all night. They were covered off till after 11 PM and no action. I find it amazing, and suspicious. But the fact is, everyone went home that night without anything. Sunday I spent VERY LITTLE time there. less than 3 hours. I heard reports of Bryce going out earlier in the day with Xavier. when I got there. One of the local hounds/paps here had what he thought was a big tip on where Jodelle Ferland was, who I needed & didnt think I would have a better chance....so I went where I was told she was. After waiting 15 mins with the tipster, his GF went in and came out & said it wasnt her. He showed me the pics he took, she was right. He had me come down there for some kid. Jodelle is 15, the kid he shot was no more than 10 or 11. I was glad he let me know when he saw someone he thought I might need, but obviously annoyed it was a failed venture. Back to the hotel I would head. When I got back it turned out the guys were planning an evening dinner somewhere, and I really didnt feel like going to it since I had other plans tentatively planned. Just before I left, guess who was seen coming back into the hotel from Subway. Ashley Greene. Oh Ashley, why do you do this to us?? I trhink there needs to be a rule with Ashley now. She can only come out if she brings a different cast member with her each time. If this were to happen I am sure everyone would have seen everyone in the cast by now. Anyways, a horribly bad weekend. Pics will be uploaded when I have more motivation. Saturday Twilight insanity- PART 1 This day was so long I dont think I can squeeze it all into 1 blog without it looking like a novel...which I have been told by some my blogs already look like. My day started with a late start. I didnt expect the mornings to be busy, so I took my time & didnt get there till about noon. I got there to find out Ashley Greene was out shopping. All the paps were off on that chase, leaving the hotel guarded by merely me & a couple fans. It was quiet, then I went to Subway & found Taylor Lautners dad there. I didnt speak to him, but he was clearly ordering enough that I got the impression TL wasnt coming out anytime soon. His dad left, and when I came out of subway myself, I found him chatting with one of the local hounds. He then told us not to expect much today, that it was going to be quiet there & that they were all in "lockdown". At the time, we didnt know what he meant...but we got the message, which was "dont expect much here today". Shortly after that I saw the tweet from a twilight fan that stated that Edi stated at a twi convention that the cast was apparently watching New Moon in Vancouver as he spoke. So we concluded thats what Taylors dad was referring to & figured we had an hour or more to kill. Myself & 2 others decided to go to a different hotel for a bit & see if we could see some non-Twilight stars. When who should we see??...a Twilight star. Kellan Lutz showed up there & went inside for a couple minutes. When he came back out, he had 2 bags, 1 that was like a carry on luggage bag, the other a shopping bag from somewhere. He posed with a fan for a pic, then hopped in a cab. There was no chance for an autograph, but I did snap a few pics of him leaving (will upload later when time permits...probably Monday). From there we decided maybe they werent watching it right now & headed back to Twilight HQ. Awhile would go by, with nothing of note, then a couple small signs of action happened. Nikki & Elizabeth left, in a production vehicle. Taylors dad went into the parking lot, we assumed to go get the rental car he had, and 1 or two other small things were happening that made us think the movie (we still were under the assumption that it was on right then) was over. When from out of nowhere a vehicle left. It was full. The only thing I knew was the guy in the front seat is a guy we have seen shadowing Rob a lot since he got here, and in the center of the back was Kristen. Two cars followed in pursuit, and my friend & I decided all too late to try & follow. We never caught up to them, but were given the heads up of their final destination. We got out to a warehouse area of West 2nd avenue to a place with an underground secure parking lot that multiple vehicles had gone down into. NOW the cast was about to watch the movie. It was 4 in the afternoon & they were JUST starting their screening. There was 7-10 people waiting outside there. No less than 4 agencies represented. Everyone knew nothing would be had of them leaving, but what they were doing was waiting to see where they would be next....and thats when things started to pick up (for part 2 later today).

Q: How can i put image in webOS application i want to add image in the webos application and want to add click event for it. i am also not able to put background image in the application. i put this code to set background image in Basic.css file body.palm-default { background: url('../images/comman_bg.png') top left no-repeat; z-index: -1; position: fixed; top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 320px; height: 480px; } /* "splash" below is the scene name. Replace it with your scene name to get it to have a custom background */ #mojo-scene-splash-scene-scroller { background: url('../images/splash-screenshot-default.png') top left no-repeat; } if anyone have code for set image and click event for image then reply. A: Did you make sure to include the Basic.css file from your index.html? Did you make sure the path to the images was correct, relative the placement of the CSS file? To set a click handler for an image you'll want to do something like the following: this.onTapHandler = this.onTap.bind(this); Mojo.Event.listen($("myImg"), Mojo.Event.tap, this.onTapHandler); And later you'll want to stop listening Mojo.Event.stopListening($("myImg"), Mojo.Event.tap, this.onTapHandler); A: // set up the image view widget this.tfdImages = this.controller.get("tfd-images"); this.tfdWidget = this.controller.setupWidget("tfd-images", {noExtractFS: true}, this.imageModel = { onLeftFunction: function() { this.updateImages(-1); }.bind(this), onRightFunction: function() { this.updateImages(1); }.bind(this) });
\section{Stroboscopic time evolution operator} \label{Ap:0} We derive the stroboscopic time evolution operator from time step $k$ to $k+1$, $k \in \mathbb{N}$, $t_{k+1}-t_k = \Delta t$, \begin{equation} U_k = \exp\left[-\frac{i}{\hbar}\int_{t_k}^{t_k+1}\mathrm{d}t' \mathcal{H}''(t') \right] \label{eq:Ap_Uk} \end{equation} where no explicit time ordering is necessary if time is discretized into sufficiently small steps $\Delta t$. Here, $\mathcal{H}''(t)$ is obtained from the Hamiltonian of the system in the rotating frame, $\mathcal{H}'(t)$, given in Eq.~\eqref{eq:Ham_rot} of the main text with feedback implemented at delay time $\tau_\text{FB}$ for the first channel, that is, with $g_a(\omega) = g_a\sin\left(\omega \tau_\text{FB}/2\right)$, $g_b(\omega) = g_b$, after a time-independent phase shift via the unitary transformation \begin{equation} \mathcal{H}''(t) = U^\dagger \mathcal{H}'(t)U \text{,}\quad U = \exp\left[i \int\mathrm{d}\omega r^{\dagger (1)}_\omega r^{(1)}_\omega \frac{\omega \tau_\text{FB}}{2} \right]. \end{equation} Furthermore, we perform a transformation from the frequency to the time domain introducing the time-dependent noise operators \begin{equation} r^{\dagger (i)}_t = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}}\int \mathrm{d} \omega r_\omega^{\dagger (i)} e^{i\left(\omega-\omega_i\right)t}, \end{equation} $i \in \{1,2\}$, with $\omega_1 = \omega_{ab}$, $\omega_2 = \omega_b$ which obey \begin{equation} \left[r_t^{(i)}, r_{t'}^{\dagger (j)} \right] = \delta_{ij}\delta(t-t'). \end{equation} While the operators $r_\omega^{\dagger (i)}$ describe the creation of a photon with frequency $\omega$ in the reservoir $i$, as their fourier transforms the operators $r_t^{\dagger(i)}$ model the creation of a photon at time $t$ in the respective reservoir. This way, the Hamiltonian $\mathcal{H}''(t)$ can be expressed as \begin{multline} \mathcal{H}''(t) = i \hbar \sqrt{\Gamma_a} \left[\sigma_+^{(1)} \left[r^{(1)}_t - r^{(1)}_{t-\tau}e^{i \omega_{ab} \tau_\text{FB}} \right] -\text{H.c.}\right] \\ + \hbar \sqrt{\Gamma_b} \left[\sigma_+^{(2)} r^{(2)}_t+ \text{H.c.}\right] \end{multline} with the decay rates $\Gamma_a \equiv g_a^2 \pi/2$ and $\Gamma_b \equiv 2\pi g_b^2$. Introducing the noise increments \begin{equation} \Delta R_k^{\dagger (i)} = \int_{t_k}^{t_{k+1}}\mathrm{d} t r^{\dagger (i)}_t \end{equation} which describe the creation of a photon in the reservoir $i$ in time step $t_k$, we discretize the time and the stroboscopic time evolution operator from Eq.~\eqref{eq:Ap_Uk}, thus, takes the form \begin{multline} U_k = \exp\left\{ \sqrt{\Gamma_a} \left[\sigma_+^{(1)} \left(\Delta R^{(1)}_k - \Delta R^{(1)}_{k-m}e^{i \omega_{ab} \tau_\text{FB}} \right) -\text{H.c.}\right] \right. \\ \left.-i \sqrt{\Gamma_b} \left[\sigma_+^{(2)} \Delta R^{(2)}_k + \text{H.c.}\right] \right\} \end{multline} where $\tau_\text{FB} = m \Delta t$. \section{Two-photon state emitted from the 3LS} \label{Ap:1} We use the Hamiltonian in the rotating frame, $\mathcal{H}'(t)$, given in Eq.~\eqref{eq:Ham_rot} of the main text where without feedback it holds that $g_a(\omega) = g_a$ and $g_b(\omega)= g_b$ so that \begin{multline} \mathcal{H}'(t) = \hbar \int \mathrm{d}\omega g_a \left(\sigma_+^{(1)}r_\omega^{(1)}e^{i(\omega_{ab}-\omega)t} +\text{H.c.} \right) \\ + \hbar \int \mathrm{d}\omega g_b \left(\sigma_+^{(2)}r_\omega^{(2)}e^{i(\omega_b-\omega)t} +\text{H.c.} \right) \end{multline} to derive the coefficients of the combined state of the 3LS and the reservoir in the two-excitation limit \begin{multline} \ket{\psi(t)} = c_a(t)\ket{a,0} + \int\mathrm{d}\omega c_{b,\omega}(t)\ket{b,1_\omega} \\ + \int\hspace{-0.5em} \int \mathrm{d}\omega \mathrm{d}\omega' c_{c,\omega,\omega'}(t)\ket{c,1_\omega,1_{\omega'}}. \end{multline} Here, the first term on the right-hand side of the equation describes the 3LS in the upper state and no photons in the reservoir, the second term represents the 3LS in the middle state and a photon with frequency $\omega$ in the reservoir while the third term refers to the 3LS in the ground state and two photons in the reservoir, one with frequency $\omega$, the other with frequency $\omega'$. With the Schrödinger equation, we find \begin{align} \dot{c}_a(t) &= -i g_a \int\mathrm{d} \omega e^{i\left(\omega_{ab}-\omega\right)t}c_{b,\omega}, \\ \dot{c}_{b,\omega}(t) &= -i g_a e^{-i\left(\omega_{ab}-\omega\right)t}c_a(t) \notag \\ &\qquad\qquad - i \int \mathrm{d}\omega' g_b e^{i\left(\omega_b-\omega'\right)t} c_{c,\omega,\omega'}(t), \\ \dot{c}_{c,\omega,\omega'}(t) &= -i g_b e^{-i\left(\omega_b - \omega'\right)t} c_{b,\omega}(t). \end{align} Using the Weisskopf-Wigner theory of spontaneous emission \cite{Scully1997}, we can approximate the decay of an atomic state in a continuum of photon modes via \begin{align} -ig_a\int\mathrm{d}\omega e^{i\left(\omega_{ab}-\omega\right)t}c_{b,\omega}(t) &= -\frac{\Gamma_a}{2}c_a(t), \\ -ig_b\int\mathrm{d}\omega' e^{i\left(\omega_{b}-\omega'\right)t}c_{c,\omega,\omega'}(t) &= -\frac{\Gamma_b}{2}c_{b,\omega}(t). \end{align} where $\Gamma_a$ and $\Gamma_b$ are the decay rate of the upper state $\ket{a}$ and the middle state $\ket{b}$, respectively. As a consequence, starting in the upper state, that is, with the initial conditions $c_a(0)=1, c_{b,\omega}(0) = c_{c,\omega,\omega'}(0)=0$ for all $\omega$, $\omega'$, we obtain \begin{align} c_a(t) &= e^{-\frac{\Gamma_a}{2}t}, \\ c_{b,\omega}(t) &= \frac{-ig_a}{i\left(\omega-\omega_{ab}\right) -\left(\frac{\Gamma_a}{2} - \frac{\Gamma_b}{2}\right)} \left(e^{-i\left(\omega_{ab}-\omega\right)t-\frac{\Gamma_a}{2}t} - e^{-\frac{\Gamma_b}{2}t}\right), \\ c_{c,\omega,\omega'}(t) &= \frac{-ig_ag_b}{i\left(\omega-\omega_{ab}\right)-\left(\frac{\Gamma_a}{2} -\frac{\Gamma_b}{2}\right)}\notag \\ & \times\int_0^t\mathrm{d}t'\left( e^{-i\left(\omega_{a}-\omega-\omega'\right)t'-\frac{\Gamma_a}{2}t'} - e^{-i\left(\omega_b-\omega'\right)t'-\frac{\Gamma_b}{2}t'} \right). \end{align} Since we want to study two-photon interference effects, we are interested in the long-time limit where the 3LS has completely decayed to the ground state and two photons have been emitted. In this limit, the coefficients $c_a(t)$ and $c_{b,\omega}(t)$ have decayed to zero and omitting the 3LS contribution we obtain the two-photon state \begin{multline} \ket{\Psi} = \hspace{-0.5em} \bigintsss\hspace{-1em}\bigintsss \hspace{-0.5em} \mathrm{d}\omega \mathrm{d}\omega' \\ \times \frac{ - g_a g_b}{\left[i \left(\omega +\omega'- \omega_{a} \right) - \frac{\Gamma_a}{2} \right]\left[i \left( \omega'-\omega_{b}\right) -\frac{\Gamma_b}{2} \right]} \ket{1_{\omega}, 1_{\omega'}}. \end{multline} \section{Two-photon probability amplitude} \label{Ap:2} To derive the two-photon probability amplitude \begin{equation} \Psi_{r_1,r_2}(t_1,t_2) = \bra{0}E^{(+)}_{2,r_2}(t_2)E^{(+)}_{1,r_1}(t_1)\ket{\Psi} \end{equation} of the first photon taking the path $r_1$ to the first detector and the second photon reaching the second detector via the path $r_2$ with $r_1$, $r_2 \in \{S,L\}$ we use the two-photon state given in Eq.~\eqref{eq:two-photState} of the main text and the positive frequency part of the electric field operator \cite{Scully1997} \begin{equation} E^{(+)}_{i,r}\left(t\right) = \sum_{\omega} \mathcal{E}(\omega) r^{(i)}_\omega e^{-i \omega\left(t- \frac{r}{c}\right)}, \quad \mathcal{E}(\omega) = \sqrt{\frac{\hbar \omega}{2 \epsilon_0 V}} \label{E+_1D} \end{equation} with vacuum permittivity $\epsilon_0$ and quantization volume $V$. Switching from a sum to an integral, the operator can be expressed as \begin{equation} E^{(+)}_{i,r}\left(t\right) = \int \mathrm{d}\omega \sigma(\omega) \mathcal{E}(\omega)r^{(i)}_\omega e^{-i\omega\left(t-\frac{r}{c} \right)} \end{equation} where $\sigma(\omega)$ is the density of states. Approximating $\sigma(\omega)$ and $\mathcal{E}(\omega)$ with their values at the atomic resonances, we obtain \begin{multline} \Psi_{r_1,r_2}(t_1,t_2) = -g_{a}g_{b}\sigma\left(\omega_{ab}\right)\sigma\left(\omega_{b}\right)\mathcal{E}\left(\omega_{ab}\right)\mathcal{E}\left(\omega_{b}\right) \\ \times \bigintsss\hspace{-1em}\bigintsss \hspace{-0.5em} \mathrm{d}\omega \mathrm{d}\omega' \frac{ e^{-i\omega\left(t_1-\frac{r_1}{c}\right)}e^{-i\omega'\left(t_2-\frac{r_2}{c}\right)}}{\left[i \left(\omega +\omega'- \omega_{a} \right) - \frac{\Gamma_a}{2} \right]\left[i \left( \omega'-\omega_{b}\right) -\frac{\Gamma_b}{2} \right]}. \end{multline} The evaluation of the integrals using the residue theorem finally yields \begin{multline} \Psi_{r_1,r_2}(t_1,t_2) = \eta e^{-\left( i\omega_{a}+\frac{\Gamma_a}{2}\right)\left(t_1 - \frac{r_1}{c} \right)} \Theta\left(t_1 - \frac{r_1}{c} \right) \\ \times e^{-\left(i\omega_{b} + \frac{\Gamma_b}{2}\right)\left[\left(t_2 -\frac{r_2}{c} \right)-\left(t_1-\frac{r_1}{c} \right)\right]}\Theta\left[\left(t_2 - \frac{r_2}{c} \right) - \left(t_1 -\frac{r_1}{c} \right) \right] \end{multline} with $\eta \equiv 4 \pi^2 g_{a}g_{b}\sigma\left(\omega_{ab}\right)\sigma\left(\omega_{b}\right)\mathcal{E}\left(\omega_{ab}\right)\mathcal{E}\left(\omega_{b}\right)$. \section{Introduction}\label{sec:introduction} Quantum entanglement, according to Schr\"odinger \cite{Schrodinger1935}, is the feature that most clearly distinguishes the quantum from the classical world and has been the subject of ongoing research for decades \cite{Schrodinger1935, Einstein1935, Horodecki2009, Erhard2020}. On the one hand, this contributes to our fundamental understanding of quantum mechanics \cite{Einstein1935,Bell1964,Reid2009}. On the other hand, there are various practical fields of application: Entanglement is viewed as a key resource in quantum computation \cite{Bennett1998,Steane1998,OBrien2007}, enables secure quantum communication, for example via quantum key distribution \cite{Gisin2007,Yuan2010}, and facilitates measurements that are more precise than achievable with classical means \cite{Giovannetti2004,Mitchell2004,Giovannetti2011,Slussarenko2017}. Photons are well-suited to transmit quantum information as ``flying qubits'' and can be entangled in various degrees of freedom. There has been a lot of research focusing on polarization-entangled photon pairs which, however, suffer from sensitivity to dispersion of the polarization mode when transported in optical fibers \cite{Kwiat1995,Jennewein2000,Muller2014}. Other types of photon entanglement that have been realized experimentally include position-momentum entanglement \cite{Horne1989} and entanglement in the orbital angular momentum \cite{Mair2001}. In 1989, Franson introduced a further type of photon entanglement, namely energy-time entanglement, that is, a high correlation of the photons in their energy and time of emission \cite{Franson1989}. As opposed to polarization entanglement, energy-time entanglement is robust when transported in fibers over long distances \cite{Tittel1998, Inagaki2013}. In connection with the research on energy-time entanglement, also the related time-bin entanglement came into focus \cite{Brendel1999,Marcikic2002,Jayakumar2014,Vedovato2018}. Franson suggested an ingenious setup to visualize the energy-time entanglement of two photons emitted from a three-level system (3LS) in ladder configuration via an interference in the second-order coherence function \cite{Franson1989}. The Franson interferometer has been realized in a variety of experiments \cite{Ou1990,Brendel1991,Kwiat1993,Aerts1999,Grassani2015,Wakabayashi2015,Agne2017,Peiris2017a,Park2018,Park2019}. The visibility of the interference fringes depends crucially on the decay rates of the 3LS and a high visibility can be obtained in a parameter regime where the upper state of the 3LS decays slowly in comparison to the middle state. A typical source of photon pairs are semiconductor quantum dots \cite{Shields2007,Kabuss2011,Su2013,Carmele2019}. If the photon pairs are generated via a biexciton-exciton cascade, however, the expected visibility is low since, usually, the biexciton state has a shorter lifetime than the exciton state \cite{Moreau2001,Jayakumar2014,Muller2014,Heindel2017,Scholl2020}. It is therefore interesting to look for ways to manipulate a 3LS in such a way that the visibility of the interference fringes is increased which indicates an enhanced energy-time entanglement of the emitted photons. While there are resonator-based schemes to deal with this issue, the achievable change of the emission dynamics is essentially given and limited by the device geometry \cite{Bayer2001,Gevaux2006,Jakubczyk2014,Scholl2020}. Complementarily, time-delayed feedback has proven to be a versatile tool for the control of classical as well as quantum systems \cite{Pyragas1992,Bechhoefer2005,Scholl2016}. In quantum systems, measurement-based feedback control schemes are detrimental to entanglement since during the measurement process quantum coherence is destroyed \cite{Wiseman1994, Sayrin2011,Rossi2018}. In contrast, coherent time-delayed feedback preserves quantum coherence and, thus, is well suited for the control of entanglement \cite{Lloyd2000,Carmele2013,Tufarelli2013,Hein2014,Tufarelli2014,Fang2015,Grimsmo2015,Guimond2017,Barkemeyer2019,Calajo2019a,Sinha2020,Katsch2020,Barkemeyer2020}. Here, we propose a scheme to control the visibility of the two-photon interference in the Franson interferometer via the manipulation of the decay rates in the 3LS using coherent time-delayed feedback. We treat the problem within the matrix product state (MPS) framework which allows the numerically exact simulation of the non-Markovian system dynamics \cite{Pichler2016,Guimond2017}. The paper is structured as follows: After this introduction in Sec.~\ref{sec:introduction}, in Sec.~\ref{sec:Model} we present our model and the MPS method we use to calculate the time evolution and to evaluate the second-order coherence function numerically. Furthermore, we benchmark the results we obtain in the case without feedback where the problem can be solved analytically. Subsequently, in Sec.~\ref{sec:results} we present the results we obtain when a feedback mechanism is implemented and finally, in Sec.~\ref{sec:Conclusion}, we summarize our findings. \section{Model} \label{sec:Model} \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[]{Fig1.pdf} \caption{(Color online) Franson interferometer with feedback channel. The setup allows to measure the second-order coherence function of two photons emitted from a three-level system (3LS) in ladder configuration. For more pronounced effects, the emitted photons are frequency filtered which ensures that the first photon is detected by the first detector, $D_1$, and the second photon is detected by the second detector, $D_2$, if a signal is registered. The photons can reach the detectors either via short ($S$) or long paths ($L$) defined by beamsplitters and mirrors. For the $\ket{a} \leftrightarrow \ket{b}$ transition, a feedback mechanism at delay time $\tau_\text{FB}$ is implemented.} \label{fig:FransonSetup} \end{figure} The setup we consider is illustrated in Fig.~\ref{fig:FransonSetup}. The Franson interferometer allows the analysis of two-photon correlations. We assume the source of these photons to be a ladder-type 3LS initially in the upper state $\ket{a}$ which decays with rate $\Gamma_a$ to the middle state $\ket{b}$ emitting a photon. The middle state, in turn, decays with rate $\Gamma_b$ to the ground state $\ket{c}$ under the emission of a second photon. The photons emitted from the 3LS impinge on a 50:50 beamsplitter and enter into one of the two unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer arms constituting the Franson interferometer. In each of these arms, the photons can take either a short path of length $S$ or a long path of length $L$ defined by beamsplitters and mirrors to the respective detector. Note that only those events are registered in which the two photons enter into different arms of the interferometer which corresponds to postselection. Additionally, by placing frequency filters in the optical paths we ensure that we know which photon has entered into which channel of the interferometer if a signal is registered. In principle, it is also possible to not differentiate between the photons in which case they are both affected by the feedback mechanism we implement. For the sake of simplicity and numerical convenience, however, we focus on the given setup where we are able to control the photons individually. Here, the effects that occur are more pronounced and serve as a proof of principle. When measuring the second-order coherence function, the interference of the two-photon probability amplitudes of the photons taking either the short or the long paths results in an oscillation of the height of the central peak with the relative phase between the paths. This interference can be observed in the parameter regime where the delay time between the long and the short path to the detectors, $T = (L-S)/c$ with $c$ being the speed of light in the waveguide, exceeds the first-order coherence time so that single-photon interference effects can be ruled out. The visibility of this interference points to the energy-time entanglement of the photons. In the setup we consider here, we subject the 3LS to coherent time-delayed feedback which allows us to control the visibility of the interference of the second-order coherence function. Concretely, we implement a feedback mechanism at delay time $\tau_\text{FB}$ for the first decay channel, that is, for the photon that is emitted first from the 3LS. The Hamiltonian governing the dynamics in the rotating wave and dipole approximation reads \begin{multline} \mathcal{H} = \hbar \omega_a \sigma_{aa} + \hbar \omega_b \sigma_{bb} + \hbar \int \mathrm{d}\omega \omega \left(r^{\dagger(1)}_\omega r^{(1)}_\omega + r^{\dagger(2)}_\omega r^{(2)}_\omega\right) \\ + \hbar \int \mathrm{d}\omega g_a(\omega) \left(\sigma_+^{(1)}r_\omega^{(1)} +\text{H.c.} \right) + \hbar \int \mathrm{d}\omega g_b(\omega) \left(\sigma_+^{(2)}r_\omega^{(2)} +\text{H.c.} \right). \label{eq:Ham} \end{multline} The occupation of the upper (middle) level of the 3LS with energy $\hbar \omega_a$ ($\hbar \omega_b$) is described by the operator $\sigma_{aa} = \ket{a}\bra{a}$ ($\sigma_{bb} = \ket{b}\bra{b}$) while the energy of the ground state of the 3LS is set to zero. The annihilation (creation) of a photon with energy $\hbar \omega$ can be described by the bosonic operator $r_\omega^{(\dagger)(i)}$, $i \in \{1,2\}$, where we consider two separate reservoirs, namely the two arms of the interferometer. The second line of Eq.~\eqref{eq:Ham} arises due to the coupling between the 3LS and these reservoirs. The $\ket{a} \leftrightarrow \ket{b}$ ($\ket{b} \leftrightarrow \ket{c}$) transition, encoded in the transition operator $\sigma^{(1)}_+ = \ket{a}\bra{b}$ ($\sigma^{(2)}_+ = \ket{b}\bra{c}$), couples to the first (second) reservoir with coupling strength $g_a(\omega)$ ($g_b(\omega)$) which is, in general, frequency-dependent. If we implement a feedback mechanism with delay time $\tau_\text{FB}$ for the first channel only, the coupling strength for this channel takes on a sinusoidal form, $g_a(\omega) = g_a \sin\left(\omega \tau_\text{FB}/2\right)$, while the coupling strength for the second channel can be assumed to be constant, $g_b(\omega) = g_b$. In the rotating frame defined by its freely-evolving part, that is, the first line of Eq.~\eqref{eq:Ham}, the Hamiltonian takes on the form \begin{multline} \mathcal{H}'(t) = \hbar \int \mathrm{d}\omega g_a(\omega) \left(\sigma_+^{(1)}r_\omega^{(1)}e^{i(\omega_{ab}-\omega)t} +\text{H.c.} \right) \\ + \hbar \int \mathrm{d}\omega g_b(\omega) \left(\sigma_+^{(2)}r_\omega^{(2)}e^{i(\omega_b-\omega)t} +\text{H.c.} \right) \label{eq:Ham_rot} \end{multline} with $\omega_{ab} \equiv \omega_a -\omega_b$ being the transition frequency of the $\ket{a} \leftrightarrow \ket{b}$ transition. We are interested in the second-order coherence function of the photons which is defined as \begin{align} G^{(2)}(\tau) &= \int_0^\infty \mathrm{d}t_1 \left.G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2) \right|_{t_2 \rightarrow t_1 + \tau}, \label{eq:G2tau}\\ G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2) &= \bra{\Psi} E^{(-)}_1(t_1) E^{(-)}_2(t_2) E^{(+)}_2(t_2) E^{(+)}_1(t_1) \ket{\Psi}. \label{eq:G2t1t2} \end{align} Here, $\ket{\Psi}$ represents the two-photon state emitted from the 3LS. The operator $E_i^{(+)}$ is the positive frequency part of the electric field operator at detector $i$, $E_i$, and comprises the photon annihilation operators. As its hermitian conjugate, $E_i^{(-)}$ is the negative frequency part so that \begin{equation} E_i(t) = E_i^{(+)}(t) + E_i^{(-)}(t). \end{equation} To account for the two equiprobable paths the photons can take to the detectors, we split up the operators according to \begin{equation} E^{(+)}_i(t) = \frac12 \left[ E^{(+)}_{i,S}(t) + E^{(+)}_{i,L}(t) \right] \label{eq:splitSL} \end{equation} where the first term on the right-hand side refers to photon $i$ taking the short, the second term to the photon taking the long path to detector $i$. \subsection{Time evolution in the MPS framework} \begin{figure*} \centering \includegraphics[]{Fig2.pdf} \caption{(Color online) Tensor diagram illustrating the time evolution algorithm. There is a bin describing the three-level system (3LS, blue box) and four types of time bins describing the short path to the first detector (S-1, red box), the short path to the second detector (S-2, orange box), the long path to the first detector (L-1), and the long path to the second detector (L-2, black box). (a) The time bins containing the feedback signal are swapped next to the 3LS bin. (b) The feedback bins, the 3LS bin and the current time bins are contracted with the stroboscopic time evolution operator (U, purple box). (c) The output bins are placed to the left of the bins in the feedback channel. (d) The procedure is repeated $N$ times. (e) After the time evolution is completed, the bins referring to the short paths are swapped $2N_T$ steps to the left and subjected to a phase shift to account for the delay time between short and long paths. (f) The procedure is repeated $N$ times.} \label{fig:Tensordiagram_timeevo} \end{figure*} Here, we introduce the time evolution algorithm based on MPS in a condensed form and refer the interested reader to Refs.~\cite{Pichler2016} for further details. The numerical calculations in this paper were performed using the ITensor Library \cite{itensor}. We model the system within the MPS framework where the continuous dynamics is discretized into time steps $\Delta t$ which are small compared to the time scales of the system evolution. In the case of feedback with delay time $\tau_\text{FB}=m\Delta t$, $m \in \mathbb{N}$, on the first channel, the evolution from time step $k$ to $k+1$, $k \in \mathbb{N}$, $t_{k+1}-t_k = \Delta t$, can be realized on the basis of the Schr\"odinger equation via the stroboscopic time evolution operator $U_k$ as the dynamical map \begin{equation} \ket{\psi(t_{k+1})} = U_k \ket{\psi(t_k)}. \end{equation} As derived in detail in the Appendix~\ref{Ap:0}, $U_k$ takes the form \begin{multline} U_k = \exp\left\{ \sqrt{\Gamma_a} \left[\sigma_+^{(1)} \left(\Delta R^{(1)}_k - \Delta R^{(1)}_{k-m}e^{i \omega_{ab} \tau_\text{FB}} \right) -\text{H.c.}\right] \right. \\ \left.-i \sqrt{\Gamma_b} \left[\sigma_+^{(2)} \Delta R^{(2)}_k + \text{H.c.}\right] \right\} \end{multline} with the decay rates $\Gamma_a = g_a^2 \pi/2$ and $\Gamma_b = 2 \pi g_b^2 $. Note that the definitions of the decay rates differ by a factor so that the Markovian channel without feedback and the non-Markovian feedback channel can be treated on equal footing without having to take additional time bins for the Markovian channel into consideration. The creation of a photon in time bin $k$ of reservoir $i$, $i \in \{ 1,2\}$, is described by the noise increment \begin{equation} \Delta R_k^{\dagger (i)} = \int_{t_k}^{t_{k+1}}\mathrm{d} t r^{\dagger (i)}_t \end{equation} where the time-dependent noise operator $r_t^{\dagger(i)}$ models the creation of a photon at time $t$ as the fourier transform of the operator $r_\omega^{\dagger (i)}$ referring to the creation of a photon with frequency $\omega$, \begin{equation} r^{\dagger (i)}_t = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}}\int \mathrm{d} \omega r_\omega^{\dagger (i)} e^{i\left(\omega-\omega_i\right)t}, \label{eq:noise_op} \end{equation} with $\omega_1 = \omega_{ab}$, $\omega_2 = \omega_b$. The noise increments obey $\left[\Delta R_k^{(i)}, \Delta R_{k'}^{\dagger (i')}\right] = \Delta t \delta_{kk'} \delta_{ii'}$ and define a discrete, othonormal time-bin basis of the Hilbert space. With the multi-index $l \equiv (i,k)$ denoting time step $k$ of channel $i$, the Fock state of time bin $l$ containing $j_l$ photons, $j_l \in \mathbb{N}$, can be created via \begin{equation} \ket{j_l}_l = \frac{\left[ \Delta R_k^{\dagger (i)}\right]^{j_l}}{\sqrt{j_l!}\left(\Delta t\right)^{j_l}}\ket{\text{vac}}_l. \end{equation} In this basis, the combined state of the 3LS and the photonic reservoirs takes the form \begin{equation} \ket{\psi(t_k)} = \sum_{j_S,j_1,\dots,j_N} \Psi_{j_S,j_1,\dots,j_N} \ket{j_S,j_1,\dots,j_M} \end{equation} where the index $j_S \in \{a,b,c\}$ describes the state of the 3LS while the index $j_l$, $l \in \{1,\dots,M\}$ denotes the occupation of the $l$-th of $M$ reservoir time bins. In general, the dimension of the Hilbert space grows exponentially with the number of time bins since the complex coefficient tensor $\Psi$ is $3p^M$ dimensional where $(p-1)$ is the maximum number of photons per time bin considered. The key idea of the time evolution algorithm based on MPS is to decompose the coefficient tensor into a product of matrices via a series of singular value decompositions, \begin{equation} \Psi_{j_S,j_1,\dots,j_M} = A^{j_S}A^{j_1}\cdots A^{j_M}. \end{equation} This decomposition allows an efficient treatment of the entangled state of the system and the reservoir by neglecting the smallest singular values which corresponds to a justified truncation of the least entangled and, thus, least important parts of the Hilbert space. Since each matrix $A$ contains a single physical index $j_{S/l}$, furthermore, a time-local description is obtained so that for each time step, the time evolution operator only has to be applied to the 3LS bin and the involved time bins. To efficiently include the feedback contributions which correspond to long-range interactions in time, a swapping procedure is performed shifting the feedback bins next to the 3LS bin. In our system, analogously to Eq.~\eqref{eq:splitSL}, we split up the noise increments to account for the two possible paths to the detectors according to \begin{equation} \Delta R^{\dagger (i)}_k = \frac12 \left(\Delta R^{\dagger (i)}_{k,S} + \Delta R^{\dagger (i)}_{k,L} \right). \end{equation} The delay time between the long and the short path to the detectors, $T$, corresponds to $N_T = T/\Delta t$ time bins. The time evolution algorithm is illustrated in Fig.~\ref{fig:Tensordiagram_timeevo}. For each of the reservoirs we use two time bins per time step to account for the two possible paths to the detectors so that, in total, there are four time bins per time step: S-1 (short path to first detector, red box), S-2 (short path to second detector, orange box), L-1 (long path to first detector, green box), and L-2 (long path to second detector, black box). At the beginning of each time step, the bins containing the feedback signal (S-1 and L-1) are swapped $2(m-1)$ steps to the right and placed next to the 3LS bin (blue box) (a) so that the time evolution can be performed efficiently by contracting the 3LS bin, the feedback bins, the current time bins and the time evolution operator (U, purple box) (b). Subsequently, the contracted tensor is decomposed and the four output bins are swapped to the left of the bins in the feedback channel while the two time bins that are kept next to the 3LS bin account for the emission into this feedback channel (c). Afterwards, the next time evolution step can be performed (d). After $N$ time steps, the time evolution is completed and we rearrange the bins to account for the different path lengths. To that end, all bins describing the photons taking the short paths to the detectors are swapped $2 N_T$ steps to the left and subjected to a phase shift to account for the relative phase of the photons taking the short and the long paths (e). At the beginning of the MPS, we place vacuum bins which describe the initial vacuum signal reaching the detectors via the long paths. The step is repeated (f) until all bins referring to the short paths have been moved. For simplicity, we assume that the relative phase between the short and the long paths has the same effect in both arms of the interferometer, that is, \begin{equation} \phi_T \equiv \omega_{ab} T = \omega_b T + 2\pi z \label{eq:assume_phaseT} \end{equation} where $z \in \mathbb{Z}$. If this was not the case, we could either consider divergent phases or adjust the phases via an asymmetric interferometer with different delay times $T_a$ and $T_b$ in the two arms. \subsection{Evaluation of the second-order coherence function} \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[]{Fig3.pdf} \caption{(Color online) Tensor diagram illustrating the evaluation of the two-time second-order coherence function $G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2)$, $t_1, t_2 \in \{u_1, \dots, u_N\}$ where two nested loops are necessary to account for all possible values of $t_1$ and $t_2$. (a) Evaluation for $t_1 = t_2 =u_1$. (b) The time bins containing the signal registered at detector $D_1$, S-1 and L-1, for time step $u_1$ are exchanged with the corresponding time bins for the next time step $u_2$. (c) Evaluation of $G^{(2)}(u_1,u_2)$. The procedure is repeated until $G^{(2)}(u_1,u_k)$ has been evaluated for all $k \in \{1,\dots,N\}$. (d) Afterwards, we start the second loop through the MPS by calculating $G^{(2)}(u_2,u_1)$ and so on until we have completely determined $G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2)$.} \label{fig:Tensordiagram_g2} \end{figure} After the time evolution and the time and phase shift accounting for the different path lengths to the detectors have been performed, we can evaluate the two-time second-order coherence function $G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2) = \bra{\Psi}E_1^{(-)}(t_1)E_2^{(-)}(t_2)E_2^{(+)}(t_2)E_1^{(+)}(t_1)\ket{\Psi}$ introduced in Eq.~\eqref{eq:G2t1t2} via the algorithm illustrated in Fig.~\ref{fig:Tensordiagram_g2}. The output bins describe the signal that reaches the detectors at a certain time step $u_i$, $i \in \{1,\dots,N\}$. We start at the beginning of the MPS and calculate $G^{(2)}(u_1,u_1)$ (a). Afterwards, we exchange the time bins describing the signal at the first detector, S-1 and L-1, at this time step, $u_1$, with the S-1 and L-1 bins of the next time step, $u_2$, (b) so that we can efficiently evaluate $G^{(2)}(u_1,u_2)$ (c). This step is repeated until $G^{(2)}(u_1,u_k)$ has been evaluated for all $k \in \{1,\dots,N\}$. Since we need the two-time second-order coherence function $G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2)$ for all possible combinations of $t_1$ and $t_2$, we then start again at the beginning evaluating $G^{(2)}(u_2,u_1)$ and so on until $G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2)$ has been completely determined. By performing an integration, see Eq.~\eqref{eq:G2tau}, we subsequently obtain the second-order coherence as a function of the delay between the detection of the first and the second photon, $G^{(2)}(\tau)$. \subsection{Benchmark without feedback} To ensure the validity of our approach we benchmark the MPS results in the special case without feedback where an analytical solution is possible. Numerically, we realize this scenario by omitting the feedback channel and performing the time evolution using the time evolution operator we obtain in the case $g_a(\omega)=g_a$ and $g_b(\omega)=g_b$, \begin{multline} U_k^{\text{no FB}} = \exp\left\{ -i\sqrt{\Gamma_a} \left[\sigma_+^{(1)} \Delta R^{(1)}_k +\text{H.c.}\right]\right. \\ \left. -i \sqrt{\Gamma_b} \left[\sigma_+^{(2)} \Delta R^{(2)}_k + \text{H.c.}\right] \right\} \end{multline} with $\Gamma_a = 2\pi g_a^2$, $\Gamma_b = 2\pi g_b^2$. For the analytical solution which is based on Refs.~\cite{Meyer1997,Scully1997} we need an expression for the two-photon state that is emitted from the 3LS which, as derived in the Appendix~\ref{Ap:1}, takes the form \begin{multline} \ket{\Psi} = \hspace{-0.5em} \bigintsss\hspace{-1em}\bigintsss \hspace{-0.5em} \mathrm{d}\omega \mathrm{d}\omega' \\ \times \frac{ - g_a g_b}{\left[i \left(\omega +\omega'- \omega_{a} \right) - \frac{\Gamma_a}{2} \right]\left[i \left( \omega'-\omega_{b}\right) -\frac{\Gamma_b}{2} \right]} \ket{1_{\omega}, 1_{\omega'}}. \label{eq:two-photState} \end{multline} We rewrite the two-time second-order coherence function $G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2)$ from Eq.~\eqref{eq:G2t1t2} introducing the two-photon probability amplitude $\Psi(t_1,t_2)$ as \begin{equation} G^{(2)}(t_1,t_2) = \left|\Psi(t_1,t_2)\right|^2, \end{equation} \begin{align} &\Psi(t_1,t_2)\notag\\ &= \frac{1}{4}\bra{0}\left[E^{(+)}_{2,S}(t_2) + E^{(+)}_{2,L}(t_2) \right]\left[E^{(+)}_{1,S}(t_1) + E^{(+)}_{1,L}(t_1)\right]\ket{\Psi} \notag \\ &= \Psi_{S,S}(t_1,t_2) + \Psi_{S,L}(t_1,t_2) + \Psi_{L,S}(t_1,t_2) + \Psi_{L,L}(t_1,t_2) \end{align} where \begin{equation} \Psi_{r_1,r_2}(t_1,t_2) = \bra{0}E^{(+)}_{2,r_2}(t_2)E^{(+)}_{1,r_1}(t_1)\ket{\Psi} \label{eq:two-photAmpl} \end{equation} is the two-photon probability amplitude describing the first photon reaching the first detector via the path $r_1$ and the second photon reaching the second detector via the path $r_2$ with $r_1,r_2 \in \{S,L\}$. As shown in the Appendix~\ref{Ap:2}, the evaluation of Eq.~\eqref{eq:two-photAmpl} using the two-photon state $\ket{\Psi}$ from Eq.~\eqref{eq:two-photState} results in \begin{multline} \Psi_{r_1,r_2}(t_1,t_2) = \eta e^{-\left( i\omega_{a}+\frac{\Gamma_a}{2}\right)\left(t_1 - \frac{r_1}{c} \right)} \Theta\left(t_1 - \frac{r_1}{c} \right) \\ \times e^{-\left(i\omega_{b} + \frac{\Gamma_b}{2}\right)\left[\left(t_2 -\frac{r_2}{c} \right)-\left(t_1-\frac{r_1}{c} \right)\right]}\Theta\left[\left(t_2 - \frac{r_2}{c} \right) - \left(t_1 -\frac{r_1}{c} \right) \right] \label{psi1D} \end{multline} where $\eta$ is some constant given in the Appendix~\ref{Ap:2}. Under the assumption of equivalent relative phases between the short and the long paths for both photons, $\phi_T$, see Eq.~\eqref{eq:assume_phaseT}, we then derive the second-order coherence function $G^{(2)}(\tau)$. In the case $\tau < -T $ we find \begin{equation} G^{(2)}(\tau) = 0. \end{equation} If $ -T \leq \tau < 0 $, we have \begin{equation} G^{(2)}(\tau) = \frac{\eta^2}{4 \Gamma_a} e^{-\Gamma_b \left(\tau+T\right)} \end{equation} while for $0 \leq \tau < T$ \begin{multline} G^{(2)}(\tau) = \frac{\eta^2}{2 \Gamma_a} e^{-\Gamma_b \tau} \left[1+ \frac12 e^{-\Gamma_b T}\right. \\ \left. + e^{-\Gamma_a \frac{T}{2}}\cos\left(2\phi_T \right) + \left(e^{-\Gamma_b \frac{T}{2}} + e^{-\left(\Gamma_a +\Gamma_b\right) \frac{T}{2}}\right)\cos\left(\phi_T\right) \right] \end{multline} and for $ \tau\geq T$ \begin{multline} G^{(2)}(\tau) = \frac{\eta^2}{2 \Gamma_a} e^{-\Gamma_b \tau} \left[1+ \frac12\left( e^{-\Gamma_b T} + e^{\Gamma_b T}\right) + e^{-\Gamma_a \frac{T}{2}} \right. \\ \left. + e^{-\Gamma_a \frac{T}{2}}\cos\left(2\phi_T \right) + \left( 1 + e^{-\Gamma_a \frac{T}{2}}\right)\left( e^{-\Gamma_b\frac{T}{2}} + e^{\Gamma_b\frac{T}{2}} \right)\cos\left(\phi_T \right) \right]. \end{multline} The numerical and analytical results are compared in Fig.~\ref{fig:Benchmark} where we performed our numerical calculations up to a time $\Gamma_a t_\text{max} = 10$ to ensure that the 3LS has decayed to the ground state and two photons have been emitted. We see that both solutions agree perfectly which confirms the validity of our numerical approach. Furthermore, as illustrated in the inset, we observe the characteristic oscillation of the height of the central peak at $\tau = 0$ with the relative phase between the short and the long paths to the detectors, $\phi_T$. In the limit $\Gamma_a T \ll \Gamma_b T$, three separate peaks appear and the height of the central peak as a function of the phase $\phi_T$, $G^{(2)}_0(\phi_T)$, behaves as \begin{equation} G^{(2)}_0(\phi_T) = \frac{\eta^2}{4\Gamma_a}\left[1 + e^{-\Gamma_a \frac{T}{2}} \cos(2\phi_T) \right] \end{equation} so that it takes on its maximal value at $\phi_T=0$ and its minimal value at $\phi_T=\pi/2$ while the height of the side peaks at $\tau = -T$ and $\tau=T$ does not change. This is due to the fact that we can clearly attribute the side peak at $\tau = -T$ to the first photon taking the long, the second photon taking the short path and the side peak at $\tau = T$ to the opposite case of the first photon taking the short, the second photon taking the long path. The central peak at $\tau=0$ originates from the two photons either both taking the short or both taking the long paths. The ignorance of the actual paths the photons take to the detectors, thus, gives rise to interference. The visibility of this interference effect is defined as \begin{equation} V \equiv \frac{G^{(2)}_0(0) - G^{(2)}_0(\frac{\pi}{2})}{G^{(2)}_0(0) + G^{(2)}_0(\frac{\pi}{2})} \end{equation} and depends crucially on $\Gamma_a T$ and $\Gamma_b T$ as shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:vis_noFB}. \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[]{Fig4.pdf} \caption{(Color online) Benchmark of the MPS solution for the second-order coherence function $G^{(2)}$ without feedback.

In this Section, we study the effect of feedback on the dynamics as well as on the second-order coherence function, $G^{(2)}(\tau)$, focussing on the case where only the first decay channel, that is, the $\ket{a} \leftrightarrow \ket{b}$ transition of the 3LS with transition frequency $\omega_{ab}$, is subjected to feedback. \subsection{Dynamics} A photon emitted into the feedback channel is reflected on the mirror and fed back to the 3LS after a delay time $\tau_\text{FB}$ as illustrated in Fig.~\ref{fig:FransonSetup}. Due to the interference of the feedback signal with the emission from the 3LS at that time, the usual Wigner-Weißkopf decay is modified. The effect of the feedback signal depends on the phase a photon acquires during one feedback round trip, $\phi_\text{FB}\equiv \omega_{ab}\tau_\text{FB}$. The decay of the upper state of the 3LS is fastest if a feedback phase $\phi_\text{FB} = (2n+1)\pi$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$, is implemented while the decay is slowed down maximally for a feedback phase $\phi_\text{FB} = 2n\pi$. In a two-level system, such a phase can completely stop the excitation decay after a transient time so that a finite excitation probability of the emitter in the long-time limit is possible while in our system with feedback on the $\ket{a} \leftrightarrow \ket{b}$ transition, the 3LS always decays to the ground state emitting two photons. In Sec.~\ref{sec:Model}, we saw that the visibility of the $G^{(2)}$ interference for the conventional Franson interferometer depends strongly on the decay rates of the upper and middle state of the 3LS and is highest for a slowly decaying upper state and a fast decaying middle state. It is, thus, interesting to implement a feedback mechanism which slows down the excitation decay from the upper level in relation to the decay of excitation from the middle state to study the potential of feedback to enhance the visibility of the $G^{(2)}$ interference. In Fig.~\ref{fig:dyn_fb_first_ch}, we exemplarily consider a 3LS with $\Gamma_a = \Gamma_b$ and compare the dynamics for a system without feedback and a system in which feedback with a phase $\phi_\text{FB}= 2\pi n$ is implemented for the first transition of the 3LS at $\Gamma_a \tau_\text{FB} = 1$. With feedback, the decay of excitation from the upper to the middle state of the 3LS is slowed down in comparison to the case without feedback. The modified decay to the middle state also affects the decay from the middle to the ground state. Nevertheless, the implemented feedback mechanism slows down the decay of the upper state in relation to the decay of the middle state considerably. For the MPS calculations in this case, as well as throughout the rest of this work, we did not limit the bond dimension when performing singular value decompositions. This corresponds to keeping all singular values which is numerically feasible since we consider only two excitations and limited delay times. In the following, if the system is subjected to feedback, we concentrate on this case of $\phi_\text{FB} = 2\pi n$ where the decay of the upper state can be slowed down maximally. \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[]{Fig6.pdf} \caption{(Color online) Dynamics of the population of the upper level ($\braket{\sigma_{aa}}$) and the middle level ($\braket{\sigma_{bb}}$) of a 3LS with $\Gamma_a = \Gamma_b$ without feedback (no FB) and with feedback at $\Gamma_a \tau_\text{FB}=1$ (FB), $\Delta t=0.05/\Gamma_a$.} \label{fig:dyn_fb_first_ch} \end{figure} \subsection{Second-order coherence function} After discussing in which way feedback allows to control the dynamics of the 3LS, we study its impact on the second-order coherence function. For the system the dynamics of which we presented in Fig.~\ref{fig:dyn_fb_first_ch}, we compare $G^{(2)}(\tau)$ without and with feedback in Fig.~\ref{fig:g2_fb_first_ch_1}. To ensure that the 3LS has completely decayed for all feedback phases, the time evolution has been performed up to $\Gamma_a t_\text{max} = 20$. Since in this system $\Gamma_a = \Gamma_b$, we are not in the parameter regime in which a high visibility of the interference in the second-order coherence function can be expected. Indeed, without feedback, we find a visibility of the $G^{(2)}$ interference of $V=0.19$. With feedback, the peaks are split and shifted on the x-axis by $-\tau_\text{FB}$. For a delay phase $\phi_T = 0$ between the short and the long paths to the detectors, the height of the central peak at $\tau = -\tau_\text{FB}$ is increased in comparison to the case without feedback and reduced for a delay phase $\phi_T = \pi/2$ which results in a visibility of $V= 0.51$. This corresponds to an increase of 168\% in comparison to the case without feedback and even goes beyond the classical limit where a maximum visibility of $V=0.5$ is possible \cite{Ou1990,Franson1991a,Kwiat1993}. Note that the violation of the classical limit does not imply a violation of a Bell-type inequality which would require a higher visibility but demonstrates and quantifies the non-classical nature of the light \cite{Aerts1999,Jogenfors2014}. In the inset of Fig.~\ref{fig:g2_fb_first_ch_1}, the oscillation of the height of the central peak with the delay phase $\phi_T$ is shown and we see that the oscillation is significantly more pronounced in the case with feedback (dashed line) than without feedback (solid line). \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[]{Fig7.pdf} \caption{(Color online) Second-order coherence function for a 3LS with $\Gamma_a T = \Gamma_b T = 4$ without feedback (no FB) and with feedback at $\Gamma_a\tau_\text{FB} = 1$ (FB), $\Delta t=0.2/\Gamma_a$, $\Gamma_a t_\text{max} = 20$. (Inset) Oscillation of the height of the central peak with the delay phase $\phi_T$ without feedback (solid line) and with feedback (dashed line).} \label{fig:g2_fb_first_ch_1} \end{figure} The potential of feedback to increase the visibility of the $G^{(2)}$ interference depends on the system parameters. In Fig.~\ref{fig:vis}, the visibility as a function of $\Gamma_a T$ and $\Gamma_b T$ for a system subjected to feedback at $\tau_\text{FB} = T/4$ is shown and compared to the visibility without feedback. To ensure that two photons have been emitted from the 3LS, we have adapted the simulation time $t_\text{max}$ according to the decay rates $\Gamma_a$ and $\Gamma_b$ and checked for the complete decay of the excitation in the 3LS. Here, we focus on the parameter regime of relatively large $\Gamma_a T$ and $\Gamma_b T$ where without feedback a visibility well below the classical limit of $V=0.5$ is found. With feedback, the visibility is raised above this threshold in much of the considered parameter area. While the visibility is enhanced remarkably for all considered parameter values, the impact of the feedback increases with $\Gamma_a T$ as illustrated in the inset of Fig.~\ref{fig:vis}. Furthermore, the enhancement is largely independent of $\Gamma_b T$. This can be attributed to the fact that it is the $\ket{a}\leftrightarrow \ket{b}$ transition with decay rate $\Gamma_a$ that is subjected to feedback in our setup. In addition to that, the influence of $\Gamma_a T$ on the visibility is inherently larger than the influence of $\Gamma_b T$ as illustrated in Fig.~\ref{fig:vis_noFB}. \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[]{Fig8.pdf} \caption{(Color online) Comparison of the visibility of the $G^{(2)}$ interference as a function of $\Gamma_a T$ and $\Gamma_b T$ without feedback (no FB) and with feedback at $\tau_\text{FB} = T/4$ (FB), $\Delta t = 0.05 T$. (Inset) Enhancement of the visibility of the $G^{(2)}$ interference with feedback ($V_\text{FB}$) in relation to the visibility without feedback ($V_\text{no FB}$) as a function of $\Gamma_a T$ for $\Gamma_b = \Gamma_a$.} \label{fig:vis} \end{figure} \section{Conclusion and outlook} \label{sec:Conclusion} We examined the possibility to control the visibility of the two-photon interference in the Franson interferometer via a coherent time-delayed feedback mechanism. With a 3LS in ladder configuration as the source of the two photons, in the conventional Franson setup, a high visibility can be found for an upper state decaying slowly in comparison to the decay of the middle state. If the 3LS is implemented as a biexciton-exciton cascade in a semiconductor quantum dot, this is difficult to obtain since the biexciton state usually has a significantly lower lifetime than the exciton state. To obtain a high visibility in other, more realistic parameter regimes as well, we suggested slowing down the decay of the upper state by implementing a feedback channel. This complements approaches such as Purcell enhancement or suppression in micro- and nanocavities where the individual control of the transitions is difficult to realize. Modeling the non-Markovian dynamics within the MPS framework, we studied the impact of the feedback on the second-order coherence function and found that feedback has the potential to enhance the visibility significantly. The faster the decay of the upper state, the stronger the effect of the feedback. Since the visibility of the two-photon interference in the Franson interferometer indicates the energy-time entanglement of the photons, we conclude that coherent feedback opens up the possibility to control and, in particular, enhance the energy-time entanglement of the photons. \section*{Acknowledgements} The authors gratefully acknowledge the support of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) through the project B1 of the SFB 910 (Project No. 163436311) and the project RE2974/18-1. \begin{appendices} \input{Appendix} \end{appendices} \bibliographystyle{apsrev4-2}
The Calgary Police Service is warning citizens about a new twist on a common scam where Calgarians are targeted by scammers pretending to be Calgary police officers. In the latest scam, citizens receive a call from someone identifying themselves as working for CPS. The scammer tells the person that one of their friends or family members is currently in custody and to bail them out, they must purchase pre-paid gift cards, most commonly iTunes gift cards. The scammers instruct their victim to stay on the phone while they go and purchase the gift cards and to then provide the scammer with the gift-card activation codes before their loved one is released. In many of these instances, scammers used an online app to spoof the phone number so it appears the call is coming from either their friend or family member, or the CPS. In some cases, victims received a call from someone claiming to be delivering a package to a friend or family member prior to the scam phone call where they are then told their friend or family member is in custody. The scammer asks for that person's cell phone number so they can deliver the package. Scammers are also using spoofing technology in these calls so they appear to be coming from a legitimate delivery company. As with similar scams, offenders are using very aggressive tactics to pressure victims into providing money. These tactics includes keeping victims on the phone for long periods of time, threats, and harassment through frequent phone calls. So far this year, victims in Calgary have reported losses totaling $168,000 in scams where victims are asked to purchase pre-paid credit and gift cards. 60 per cent of these losses were in the form of iTunes cards, followed by 31 per cent of losses in the form of Steam cards. The average dollar loss to reported victims of these scams are over $2,500 each. The Calgary Police Service will never contact family members to solicit bail money for individuals who have been arrested. Citizens will only be contacted by CPS about the arrest of one of their family members if the person in custody is a minor. People who have been charged or are eligible for bail have access to phones to contact their friends and family members. Bail is not managed by the CPS and can only be paid in-person at provincial courthouses or correctional centres. Acceptable forms of payments do not include any form of gift cards, including iTunes gift cards. The CPS will never solicit payments in the form of gift cards. If a citizen receives a call stating that a friend or family member is in custody, they should hang up the phone make attempts to contact that person. As in all cases, if you are told you owe money, never feel pressure to provide payment until you've determined if the debt is real. Legitimate requests will not be that urgent. If your workplace sells gift cards be on the lookout for potential victims and inform them about this scam. Victims may seem very stressed and agitated, be on the phone and purchasing a large amount of gift cards. Always report it to police. If you have lost money or been the victim of a legitimate threat, call 403-266-1234.

The event will be held on Sunday, November 22. A lawyer and social activist, Hussen immigrated to Canada in 1993, settled in Regent Park and quickly gravitated towards public service. In 2002 he co-founded the Regent Park Community Council and was able to secure the $500 million revitalization project of Regent Park, all while ensuring the interests of the area's nearly 15,000 residents were protected. Prior to being elected on Monday, October 19, he served as the National President of the Canadian Somali Congress – a Somali community organization that works with national and regional authorities to advocate on issues of importance to Canadians of Somali heritage and strengthen civic engagement and integration. CAFCAN, a not-for-profit agency whose primary focus is on building and strengthening the service framework for African Canadians through the use of psycho-social interventional approaches, is an off-shoot of the Jamaican Canadian Association (JCA). Officially incorporated in May 2014, CAFCAN has now formally assumed full responsibilities for the social services arm of the JCA. CAFCAN was specifically set up to provide culturally appropriate social services, aimed at enriching the lives of the African, Caribbean and Diasporic (ACD) communities in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Since then, the JCA and CAFCAN have been operating as two entirely distinct and separate entities. Specifically, since June, 2014, each organization has its own Board of Directors, each composed of different individuals, except for one seat of CAFCAN's Board of Directors, which must be filled by a member of the JCA's Board, and vise versa. The two Boards of Directors have separate meetings and agendas, and a separate Financial Management Policies and Procedures Manual and a strategic plan was drafted and approved for CAFCAN. Now both organizations have separate financial, organizational and operational management systems, including separation of budgets, assets and liabilities. CAFCAN has also developed its own logo, business cards, letterhead and website, and recently held its first General Membership Meeting, and the official launch event is the final piece, symbolically giving CAFCAN full fledge operation status. CAFCAN will continue the JCA's 53-year tradition of delivering social services through "highly trained and skilled professionals, working to assist all service users, in the utmost supportive ways, to alleviate social conditions that are impacting adversely upon them, as individuals, families and as youths, and hopefully enabling them to reach their full potentials". These programs and services have included but are not limited to: Family and Youth Counselling; Employment Support; Seniors' Servivces; Violence Against Women, Leadership & Outreach Programs for Youth and Young adults; and In-School and Settlement Support Programs for New Immigrants and Refugees. CAFCAN — which receives funding from various levels of government, as well as the United Way of Greater Toronto and York Region — will hold its official launch at the JCA Centre, located at 995 Arrow Road in Toronto.

Not everyone agrees with Elon Musk. There may be better plans. Elon Musk wants to go to Mars. Professor Stephen Hawking is eager to see us search for a new planet to call home. NASA is building an engine that could take us there. But would establishing a base on the red planet really be worthwhile? "Establishing a colony on Mars is incredibly technically challenging and expensive," University of Michigan's Aaron Ridley told Futurism. He argued that while the red planet is certainly "scientifically interesting," the enormous costs associated with a permanent station make it unlikely, especially given that establishing a colony wouldn't be a solution to a problem like overpopulation. One of the biggest obstacles standing in the path of a human colony on Mars is the price tag. Getting to Mars will be prohibitively expensive, and figuring out a method of paying for the project isn't so easy. "I think it would be a natural next step in our human exploration to visit the Moon and/or Mars, but to stay for the long term probably requires an economic justification," said Hendrix. She added that space tourism is unlikely to serve this purpose. Chris McKay, a planetary scientist at NASA's Ames Research Center, maintains that the only plausible economic motivation for a Martian colony is for it to serve as a government base, downplaying the possibility of either tourism or mining operations playing that role. Settling on Mars isn't going to make anyone rich, and that's going to make it more difficult to accrue the money required for such an expensive project. Still, despite the fact that a fully-fledged colony might not be the wisest direction for a prospective space program, there's still plenty we could learn from the planet. It seems that we're more likely to establish a base on the moon before Mars. While this has its own benefits, most would agree that the red planet is more interesting — even if it's harder to reach. "In terms of science, Mars is way more interesting than the moon," wrote McKay. He listed three main advantages: its similarity to Earth in terms of planetary processes and history, the possibility of life, and the potential for terraforming the planet. If there were no other considerations to be made, most would agree that a Mars colony could be a fascinating project. However, certain endeavors need to be prioritized over others, and right now it doesn't seem like a permanent Martian settlement is the best use of our resources.

This page is about the animation. There is also a 1997 magazine article called Creature Comforts. Creature Comforts is a Academy Award winning short made by Nick Park at Aardman Animations in 1990 before the Wallace and Gromit series. The basis of the show was that members of the British public were interviewed and then their voices characterised into talking animals which were then plasticine animated, leading to comical appearances. The creatures reappeared later as part of an advertising campaign by Heat Electric, advertising the benefits of electrical heating. The popularity of the series, characters, and adverts led to a longer TV series of the same name (with the help of Richard ("Golly") Goleszowski, the creator of Robbie The Reindeer and Rex the Runt). The new series premiered on the British television network ITV in 2003. The TV show was nominated for a BAFTA and won 2 awards at the Chicago International Children's Film Festival, the Adult's Jury Award and the Children's Jury Award. The show also won a Audience Award from the Florida Film Festival. The DVD of the new series was released in America on September 27, 2005. An even newer series is due to air on ITV, starting October 30, 2005. Some of this page is derived from Wikipedia. The original article was at Creature Comforts.

With Mohanlal As President, Actor Dileep's Reinstatement To Kerala Film Body Takes A Political Turn by Swarajya Staff - Jun 29, 2018 11:36 AM +05:30 IST Mohanlal. (Sanjeev Verma/Hindustan Times via Getty Images) A controversial move by the Association of Malayalam Movie Actors (AMMA) to readmit actor Dileep in its ranks after he was expelled on charges of hiring a couple of persons to outrage the modesty of an actress has taken a political twist in Kerala. The decision has been criticised by politicians of Communist Party of India (CPI), Communist Party of India- Marxist (CPI-M) and Bharatiya Janata Party, while a few legislators who have links with Mollywood have welcomed it. On the other hand, the All India Youth Federation (AIYF), an arm of the Communist Party of India (CPI), burning an effigy of popular actor Mohanlal in protest against the decision to call back actor to the association. Malayalam daily Mathrubhumi reported that AIYF members took out a protest march to the Film Chamber of Commerce in Ernakulam against taking back of Dileep. The federation has also threatened to stop shooting of Mohanlal's films in Ernakulam district. Mohanlal is being targeted because the decision to take back Dileep into the association was taken after he became AMMA President. The decision has led to four actresses, including the victim besides Reema Kilingal, Ramya Nambisan and Geethu Mohandas, quitting the association in revolt. Their decision has been backed by some actors like Prithviraj. Dileep had allegedly hired a couple of people to outrage the modesty of the actress as she had reportedly opposed the actor's second marriage with another actress. The actress was abducted and molested in a car for two hours with the accused taking photographs of their act. Dileep had married his co-star Kavya Madhavan after divorcing his wife and another co-star Manju Warrier. Kerala Finance Minister Thomas Isaac has slammed the move as "male chauvinistic attitude" and has been joined by his colleagues PWD minister G Sudhakaran and Fisheries Minister Mercykutty Amma. Kerala Women's Commission M C Josephine has come down hard on the decision, though a couple of state legislators K B Ganesh and Mukesh alongwith Member of Parliament Innocent - all part of Mollywood, have backed AMMA decision.
Q: What is the DC behavior of the switched BJT emitter follower configuration There is a circuit shown below where we have a sub-circuit I marked in red. I know that it is a source follower with the AC behavior shown below. As you can see the circuit has DC voltage input only. What is the DC behavior of the part I marked with the red arrow? A: let's consider linear vs non-linear differences. We know from datasheet typical curves and min/typ/max specs how hFE varies with Ic, Temperature and Vce. * *since Zout is a direct function of hFE, and impedance applied to the base it is important to understand some variables and how impedance control rise fall time into some fixed charge , Q or estimated Ciss which is also Vgs voltage dependent. *When Vce=Vce(sat) at Ic/Ib=10, and hFE typ is 100 we know that hFE has lost 90% of it's value due to forward conduction of Vcb. Similar 10% ratio exists for hFE types >500 tested at Ic/Ib=50. But since hFE is too dynamic, we standardize Vce(sat) at fixed Ic/Ib ratios even though we know Ic is only controlled by Vbe. But with Re/Rfb ratios known it is easier to compute Vce(sat) from current ratios than otherwise. *the Zout formula is better defined by hFE than gm because gm not given in datasheets. $$Zo_{emitter}=( Z_{Input}/h_{FE})// Re//Ro. $$ * *for Q3, Zinput=R6//Rce(Q2), neglecting flyback D1. We assume R6>>Rce which is the saturation condition =Vce(sat)/Ic, *therefore we know Zo rises when Q2 turns off leaving R6/hFE to define the Zo *When Q2 turns on, it's Rce drops to 1 Ohm for PN2222A and equivalents. Vb will be <100 mV, then Ve depends solely on the passive pull down load resistance. This means using a emitter follower will have a faster risetime due to R6/hFE than fall time due to the load resistance unless it is less than R6/hFE. Since Complementary drivers like this always needs a deadtime to prevent shootthru, the final switch turn off time must be faster than turn on time. that means emitter followers make poor half bridge drivers so push-pull drivers are used instead with controlled slew impedances.
The Beatles are definitely the most acclaimed and successful group in music history. They are the best selling group in history with EMI records estimating their sales to over one billion units. They were also the best selling band in both the UK and in the U.S where they sold over 170 million copies. The Beatles also hold the record of the most number one albums on the British charts. The band managed to achieve 7 Grammy Awards and an Academy Award for the best original song score. The Beatles were a four man English rock band formed in 1960 in Liverpool. The members of the group included John Lennon, Ringo Starr, George Harrison and Paul McCartney. Their main genres of music were rock and pop although they started out as a skiffle group. The group started small having to build their reputation by playing in clubs in Hamburg and Liverpool until late 1962 when they had their first hit 'Love Me Do'. Their subsequent releases 'Please Please Me' and 'She Loves You' then catapulted them to stardom. They became quite famous with their British fans and by 1964 they had gained international recognition. Their popularity in the UK led to the Beatlemania craze. They then released numerous hit albums from 1965 onwards until their breakup in 1970 when each of the members each released their own album. Their most influential albums include Rubber Soul (1965), Revolver (1966), The Beatles (1968) and finally Abbey Road in 1969. Each individual member of the group however managed to enjoy great fan support even in their individual careers after their break-up. McCartney and Starr are the only remaining members of the group today and still enjoy great success in their solo careers. Their music was described as unique and original and surpassed their time period since it still a great inspiration to this day.
With Honor Like Trumpets "In a time where anything retro seems to be in, WITH HONOR is a very retro band, bringing back old school hardcore to the forefront and embracing a time where message meant more than image". – The Underground Scene Over the past three years, With Honor has been helping to carve out a niche in the subgenre of positive hardcore. Playing powerful, unique, spirited 'core with melody puts them up at the ranks of likeminded post hardcore/punk revivalists Rise Against, Comeback Kid and Strike Anywhere. With their fiery youth crew spirit and uncompromised loyalty, With Honor has returned with their second full length release, This Is Our Revenge. Formed in 2002 in the hardcore breeding grounds of Connecticut, the members of With Honor banded together to "start a fast energetic band that had something positive to say. We wanted to keep the music modern, but using older influences as well", said guitarist Jay Aust. With Honor immediately established a solid team which consists of vocalist Todd Mackey, guitarists Jay and Jeff Aust, bass player Jack Caron and Jon Ross on drums. The band originally teamed up with Stillborn Records and released 2004's Heart Means Everything which was extremely well received by punk and hardcore scenes alike. With Honor toured incessantly in support of the aforementioned release with bands like Hatebreed, Sick Of It All, and Comeback Kid and gained numerous fans by playing festivals like New England Metalfest, Hellfest, and Skatefest, gaining the attention of several large independent labels. Jay said, "We chose Victory because of their strong reputation and our respect for the history and bands on the label. We couldn't have found a better place to call home." This Is Our Revenge was recorded in June of 2005 at the legendary Salad Days studios with the one and only Brian McTernan. "Working with Brian was definitely a learning experience. We learned how to look at song writing in a whole new way. In the end, Brian was able to find all of our strengths and bring them out to create an accurate representation of the band", Jay said. The title of their debut Victory album, This Is Our Revenge, pertains to the fact that music and various art forms provide an outlet from society and is a revenge on the prescribed way people are supposed to live. For the members of With Honor, the record is also a realization that rather than constant anticipation of things to come, these moments are the defining ones of their lives. Musically and lyrically, This Is Our Revenge is With Honor's strongest album yet. The band grew up listening to bands ranging from Minor Threat and Gorilla Biscuits to NOFX and Face To Face; they wear those influences on their collective sleeve. Lyrically, the band does not have one specific agenda. Vocalist Todd Mackey said, "On this album I wrote about politics, relationships, and spirituality. This album has been therapeutic for us as a band because we faced so much adversity in its process and more specifically our individual lives in the last year or so. I had some things happen to me that I hoped I would never have had to deal with in my life". There are lighter songs on the album, like "20 Strong", which touches on an unforgettable summer tour with Comeback Kid and Bane. Overall, This Is Our Revenge was born out of struggle and loss and is With Honor's most real and emotional offering to date. With Honor makes it easy to connect and believe in music again with their anthemic and inspirational new record, This Is Our Revenge. With Honor strives to affect as many people as possible in a positive way, while approaching music and their audience from a standpoint of mutual respect. Guitarist Jay Aust said, "It's important that people think for themselves and make decisions that are right for them". With Honor wants to help people realize their potential and inspire individuals to impact one another through words and actions. This Is Our Revenge hits stores on October 18th, be sure to check With Honor out on the road this Fall with Most Precious Blood.

Unfortunately, no matter how good your project team is and how well planned your project might be there is always the potential that your project might fail. Whilst ultimately the aim of any plans you put in place for a project you are managing should always be for the project to succeed, it is also worth planning for those issues that could lead to your project failing as well. Here, we take a look at the reasons why you should be planning for failures, and how you can work around any issues if you plan correctly. There is nothing worse than being unprepared, and whilst it isn't possible to plan for those unexpected issues that might set your project back, especially those that involve an external source such as a supplier being unable to provide something by a date, there are plenty you can plan for. Once you have written a plan for your project and know who is working on what and what timeframes each person expects to be able to complete work in you will have a clear idea of how the project should go. Now take a look at it and see what could go wrong and when. These are the things that you want to make a note of. It may be that nearer to the time you will want to make sure that things are going as they should be so that you can adjust other items of the project accordingly. By identifying and noting down these potential problems you may be able to avoid major project failure. Communication is the single most important aspect of working in a team and when members of your project team do not communicate then it can make things very difficult. You need to ensure that your plan contains plenty of opportunities for the team to get together and discuss the progress of the project. Even if they have been communicating amongst themselves there may be important pieces of information that have been missed out from these discussions and this offers you a good chance to rectify that. Success of a project is measured in a variety of different ways, and whilst it is true that completing the project with a satisfactory result is not in itself a failure there are several things that can happen along the way that would cause it to be such. If the project overruns, then it could be considered to have not been fully successful. A project that overruns may also run up bigger costs which again may cause it to be classed as an unsuccessful project.

BAUTA, Cuba — Marisela Álvarez spends much of the day bent over a single electric burner in her small outdoor kitchen. Her knees are killing her. Her red hair smells of cooking oil. By the end of 2010, the government had awarded 75,000 new licenses, according to Granma, the Communist Party's official newspaper, swelling the official ranks of the self-employed by 50 percent. That is still a long way from the amount needed to create alternatives for all the workers who will eventually be laid off, and there is no guarantee that the market will support hundreds of thousands of freelancers. But licenses have been granted quickly, and the government has been encouraging the bureaucracy to keep them flowing. Streets once devoid of commerce in towns like this and in Havana are gradually coming to life as people hang painted signs and bright awnings outside their houses and mount roadside stalls. An electronics engineer, who for years operated in the shadows, now publishes leaflets that claim he can mend every appliance under the sun. A practitioner of Santería sells beaded necklaces, ground sardines and toasted corn used in ceremonies at the tin-roofed shop in her yard. Ms. Álvarez and her husband, Ivan Barroso, took out a license for the cafe and another to sell meat and fish. Now the couple does a brisk business serving soft white rolls filled with garlicky pork and fresh tuna for 60 cents at a wooden counter in the gateway of their house. Ms. Álvarez, a former school librarian who gave up work several years ago, runs the cafe with her stepson. Mr. Barroso goes fishing, culls pigs and delivers produce to clients in Havana. "If you have the ability, the dedication to achieve something, you should enjoy it," said Mr. Barroso, who until November sold fish and pork without a license to a close circle of friends and clients. About 85 percent of all Cubans with jobs are employed by the state, earning about $20 per month in exchange for free access to services like health and education, and a ration of subsidized goods. Fidel Castro grudgingly allowed the private sector to take root in the early 1990s, after the collapse of the Soviet Union brought the Cuban economy to its knees. Over the years, however, the government stopped issuing new licenses and suffocated many businesses with taxes and prohibitions. This time Raúl Castro, who took over from his brother Fidel in 2006, says things have changed. In a speech to the National Assembly in December, he urged members of the government and the Communist Party to help the private sector, not "demonize" it. "It is essential that we change the negative feelings that no small number of us harbor toward this kind of private labor," Mr. Castro said. Many remain skeptical. Juan Carlos Montes ran a private restaurant on the patio of his Havana home for five years but became worn down by nit-picking inspectors and closed it in 2000. Now he is reluctant to try again. "When someone who has made the same argument for more than 40 years suddenly changes their tune, you have to have a lot of faith to believe them," he said. His wife, Yodania Sánchez, has been trying to change his mind. She has a license to rent two rooms in their higgledy-piggledy house and pays about $243 in taxes every month, whether the rooms are occupied or not. But Mr. Montes swears he will not open a new restaurant until there is a wholesale market. The government says it will set up a wholesale market — though it might take years — and this year will import $130 million worth of goods and equipment for the private sector. It is also planning microloans and business cooperatives and mulling allowing people to buy and sell cars and houses, measures that some analysts speculate might be announced ahead of the Communist Party Congress in April. For now, carpenters like Pedro José Chávez are allowed only to do repairs, rather than make things, because there is no legal market for wood. His workshop, perched on a rooftop in the Vedado area of Havana, is filled with crude machines made of salvaged parts because proper tools are too expensive. For the private sector to thrive, the government should vastly expand the list of occupations open to the self-employed to include mainstream professions like engineering or law, said Ted Henken, an expert on the Cuban private sector at Baruch College. The list of 178 jobs currently open to self-employed Cubans — among them, fixing parasols and mending bed frames — is highly specific and seems intended mainly to legalize and tax people working on the black market. "There is a lot more to be done for the state to get out of the way and for people to produce and employ," Professor Henken said. The government will also need to confront the question of civil and political rights that will emerge with the growth of a commercial class, including potentially divisive issues like growing disparities in wealth. "There's no end to the chaos and demands of a private economy," Professor Henken said. In the meantime, Ms. Álvarez and Mr. Barroso are relishing life on the almost-free market. Mr. Barroso pores daily over an exercise book where he calculates profit margins. Total sales for the two businesses are around $270 a week, he said. He and his wife each pay about $37 a month in taxes, plus 10 percent on profits at the end of the year. Ms. Álvarez vies for customers with a couple of cafes that have opened within two blocks of hers. On a recent morning, all three had more clients than the bleak state-run bar on the same street, whose offerings included omelet sandwiches, hand-rolled cigars and condoms.

A Greenville police officer shared a video he took of a talented young dancer while responding to a call over the weekend. A video of a young local dancer shared by the Greenville Police Department is getting quite a bit of attention on the department's Facebook page. The video was posted to the Greenville Police Department page Monday morning. Officer Kawain Harrison recorded the video of 12-year-old Javon while responding to a call for service over the weekend. The video shows Javon performing his best Michael Jackson moves to the tune of 'Billie Jean'. The 12-year-old dancer is also wearing a single white glove and a studded white off-white jacket for the performance in the middle of a neighborhood street. Greenville Police said the white glove Javon wore in the video is one his grandfather wears when he ushers at church on Sundays. He told Ofc. Harrison he learned his moves from watching Ellen DeGeneres.
I found a workaround on the Roxio support forums. Can't remember what it was now, but I had to run a little program they created to fix it. Note: I am now using Roxio Creator 2011, purchased direct from Roxio, added on after I purchased Roxio Creator 2010 from HP just weeks before. Arrgghhh. Hi, thanks for the suggestion to try s/w rendering. I was thinking of doing that. I'll try that next time. I like your idea of buying a BD-RE (re-writeable) disk instead of using up $10 BD-R disks for each "experiment". I did try again, but after playing around w/ fit to disk such that my .ISO file (I put it onto my computer's HDD before burning it to a BD-R) was larger, 22.77GB instead of 12.33GB. It was much better, but still not that good. Anyway, thanks for the post, I will try out your suggestion! How Do I Play An Iso File I Created To Ensure It's Ok Before Burning? I tried "Disc Image Loader", but although it did load the ISO file, the player that I used said it couldn't support playing the disk format. However, I burned this same ISO file to a BD-R disk, and when I stick it into the optical drive that can read bluray disk, it can view it. Here's a new question -- how do I "unmount" this new drive?? I right-clicked on it but don't see anything other than a few of the typical things (open, properties, eject, ...). I have a picture quality issue on the first bluray DVD I created. I checked the same player & TV using a commercial BluRay, and saw no issue (looks great). But, when I played the bluray disk I created using MyDVD, it looked great unless something was moving. The choppiness was horrible if the camera panned the scene at all. The original MPG files that I used to create the project were the following file sizes: 11.7GB 10.3GB part of a 9.8GB file (trimmed) [Once I burned it,) the bluray ISO file size was 12.3GB. The disk size was 25GB (single-layer). I thought that I set up all the burning options for the best quality. So far, the picture quality -- unless the scene being viewed is still or very slow-moving -- is not nearly as good with BD as DVD. Any ideas on what settings/preferences I might try? Can I Recode An Iso File From Blu-Ray To Dvd Format? Sorry, I didn't realize. I am used to forums where there's employees as well as users answering posts. (For more expensive s/w.) I've put my question to Roxio. However, I did see a feature in MyDVD to change the project type from BluRay to DVD or AVHCD, & I did save my project -- it does look like the conversion to DVD type project worked. So, thanks to Jim_Hardin for pointing me in the right general direction! Here's something interesting. My HP computer had another program called HP MediaSmart Player, and it played the BluRay DVD that I created using Roxio Creator 2011 MyDVD just fine. Why doesn't Roxio's Cineplayer find the codec that this other player is using? You mean that you have to buy a new codec every time you upgrade Roxio??? That sounds ridiculous. I've used every feature available in Windows 7 to change the program default, but apparently Roxio overrides them all. If I right-click on the drive & select HP MediaSmart DVD, of course it plays fine. But the default is to open Roxio Audio Converter, which of course I do NOT want! Is this an official answer from Roxio, or is this just another user's opinion, or ...? Can I recode an ISO file from blu-ray format to DVD format? If yes, which subtool within Creator 2011 Pro do I use? How do I play an ISO file I created to ensure it's OK before burning? I can't figure out how to do this with Roxio Creator 2011 Pro. I get the following error message when trying to work with Roxio Creator 2011 Pro using Remote Desktop. "Cannot Initiate Task" (in the Banner part of the window). "The task you are attempting to initiate requires MyDVD, but it is already running in another user account on this machine." Roxio Creator 2011 Pro is running on an HP Elite 380t computer with Windows 7 O/S, and I am remote desktopping from a PC running WinXPpro/SP3. I am logging into the same account as I was using when I was working with this software directly. Any ideas on how to make MyDVD work with Remote Desktop, like all the other applications that I use? (and I use a lot of different applications, due to my job being working with all kinds of different software on all kinds of computers). I have attached the error message window. What Happened To Advanced Disk Information Tool? If Roxio is removing features without telling folks, then they're a shady company that I don't want to do business with. Any way I can get my $ back? I bought Creator2010 bundled with my new PC at hp.com. I guess I need to take the matter up with HP? Well, I did the uninstall / reinstall per all the ridiculously painful steps. (Properly written software would just work on install.) Still, capture video or create DVD does not work. Burning a DVD from the ISO image seemed to work. I just want it all to work, not wonder what is going on. Actually, I think I just want my money back. I just bought it (when I bought my new PC at HP.com). Where did this image come from? I just made it with Roxio Creator 2010 on the same computer. Do you know what software made the image? See above. What type of image/file extension does this image have? ISO. Edited to clarify responses.
Grand Master's Message: A Full Trestleboard By Michael D. Nicholas, Sr. ​Grand Master A Full Trestleboard: The Year Ahead Brethren all, Thank you for the privilege of serving you and our Grand Jurisdiction as Grand Master for 2020. It is a responsibility that I approach with the utmost respect and seriousness of purpose. I'll make you two promises right out of the gate: I will work hard to earn the trust that you have placed in me, and I will not make everyone happy! To get things started, my wife, Maryann, and I would like to offer all of you our best wishes for a safe, productive, and Happy New Year! We look forward to meeting as many of you as possible throughout this year, and we both hope that you will consider participating in the numerous family-friendly events that we have planned. There are ambitious plans for this year! Many of you have been asked to serve on the 30+ Grand Lodge Committees that have been formed for the purpose of making these plans a reality. In total, almost 300 very talented brethren have offered or been asked to serve – such that I am confident that I've broken the DC indoor record for Committee-forming. Each committee is led by an outstanding chairman, and each also has an elected Grand Lodge Officer who will serve as a liaison to me for reporting and coordination purposes. In the next week or so, I look forward to sharing my vision and expectations with all the committees. So, what are some of the plans? We will continue to do the things that you already know and love: Universal Brotherhood Celebration (UBC), Fourth of July Parades, Grand Lodge Picnic, Masonic Day of Thanksgiving, etc. However, we will consider some changes to UBC and perhaps add a soccer game or some type of sporting event to the Annual Picnic. We're going to have family outings to Patriotic events at Fort Myer and the Iwo Jima Memorial. The significant others (SO) of our Masons will be invited to a First Lady's Tea with First Lady Maryann, and she is also planning a charity fashion show for mid-May. We have a "New Acacia Network" subcommittee looking at how to make Freemasonry more applicable to your daily lives, by providing a way to seek help or advice from other DC Masons. Our Cultural Events subcommittee will plan and present several cultural events for the enjoyment of our Brethren and families and will also serve as a venue to invite non-Masonic guests. We'll have a very special committee called "Masonic Wellness" to look at how to provide help to our brethren and families who may suffer from mental disorders and additive behaviors. It has been my experience that any Brother who suffers from such things is not capable of being an effective Freemason – and in many cases his family also suffers. We will strengthen and improve our Hospitality Committee, which will provide a Brother to serve as a companion and guide to visiting Brethren and their families in Washington, DC. It is my hope and expectation that this will help both our visitors AND our DC Brethren. Masonic Activities: Our Masonic Education and Service Committee will continue to build on the outstanding work began last year and create a repository of "Best Practices" for use by our Lodges. They will also present instruction during the year. Our Combined Grand Visitations (3 in total) will feature a Festive Board and speaker, and will be designed to serve as an opportunity to invite men who wish to learn more about Freemasonry. We have a very talented Publications and Media Production Committee, whose interests will include the production of updated informational material for prospective men, and to produce rich media content for use on social media platforms. Our History Committee will develop ways to better present the rich history of our Lodges, and to share this past with brethren and families. We've started a Masonic Youth Programs Committee who will look at helping our new DeMolay program be successful, as well as to look for other opportunities for the healthy involvement of our Youth in the principles of Freemasonry. Our Masonic Service Presentation Committee will ensure that all 50, 60 and 70-year pins are awarded to our Brethren who are dispersed and hard to reach by our Lodges. Our Library and Museum Committee will make these resources more accessible to our Lodges. Our Arlington Masonic Funerals Subcommittee will expand a program already being conducted by Freedom Military Lodge No. 1775, and will help provide Masonic Funerals for the families of Masonic Veterans who desire such a service at Arlington National Cemetery. We plan to advertise this special service nation-wide. And we also have a Research Lodge Exploratory Subcommittee, to look at the re-establishment of a Research Lodge in DC, to produce research of Masonic significance and interest that are worthy of representing the Grand Lodge of our Nation's Capital. I plan to host a weekly get-together at the Grand Lodge on "Burger Friday" afternoons for our newly made Entered Apprentice Masons. Every newly made Mason will be invited to attend at least once during the period from Initiation to Fellowcraft. I plan to host a monthly luncheon for all newly made Fellowcrafts, and a monthly dinner for all new Master Masons. The purpose of the "Burger Friday" and dinners/luncheons should be obvious, but my hope is to immediately immerse our new brethren into Fellowship and Brotherhood, and to make them want to stay connected. It should serve as an extension of what you are already doing in your Lodges. Finally, I have some ideas for how to actually "market" Freemasonry to the men who live and work in & around Washington DC. I am looking for five test Lodges to experiment with this concept this year. So, these are most of our Committees, but there are many more. Many of these committees toil in relative obscurity, doing very important things (Accounts, Budget, Building Maintenance, Code, Jurisprudence, Grievances, Leadership Conference, etc.), but I've burned up about all of the pixels I'm allotted and I'll stop explaining everything! Brethren, my focus this year is to understand where we came from and to build our future with that knowledge and motivation. I don't really have a catchy slogan, and I don't even have a pin or coin yet. My entire focus has been on getting the right men in the right places to help Freemasonry serve a vital role in our daily lives – not just one or two nights a month. We've all made serious and solemn promises to each other, to care for each other. I want to help you fulfill those promises. I look forward to an exciting and interesting year, and I definitely need your help. We all need your help. I am continuing the work began by the 165 Grand Masters who have preceded me. I am only the steward of our Grand Lodge for a short period of time, but I want to pass it on in good shape to the Grand Masters who will follow me. I invite you to jump on for the ride. Sincerely and Fraternally, Michael D. Nicholas, Sr. The Grand Lodge of the District of Columbia From the Archives: Samuel Gompers on "Freemasonry in Industry" The Samuel Gompers Memorial at the intersection of 10th, L Street, and Massachusetts Ave., NW. (Photo courtesy WikiMedia Commons and Bestbudbrian.) The following article was written by Samuel Gompers, founder of the American Federation of Labor (the AFL part of the now AFL-CIO) and member of Dawson Lodge No. 16. In it he connects the philosophies of trade unionism and Freemasonry. It was published in the Masonic Service Association's "The Master Mason" magazine shortly after his death in December of 1924. In fact, the idea for a Lodge in his name was conceived by several of his Brethren the day after his death, and became a reality when Samuel Gompers Lodge No. 45 held their first meeting on the night of January 26, 1926. - Compiled by Jason Van Dyke, PM and Bro. Chris Ruli. By Bro. Samuel Gompers Founder and President, American Federation of Labor ​Originally published in "The Master Mason," Vol. 1 No. 4, April 1924 FREEMASONRY had its origin in the desire to dignify and protect the crafts in the masonry industries. From the beginning the thought has been impressed upon us that men should have the right to travel in foreign lands and receive Masters' wages. Freemasonry has built around the early tenets a great ideal of life and service. We find the division of the day into three periods (eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation, eight hours for rest) a necessity of modern industrial life which members of the Masonic Fraternity were quick to understand and urge. I think the struggle of the toiling masses for a freer, better life, for better citizenship and fuller understanding must find among Masons an immediate, intelligent sympathy. After all, there is much in common between all groups which are organized around great ideals. The same passion for fair dealing, for justice, for the development of the individual, for greatness and freedom of opportunity is found in the trade union movement and in the Masonic Fraternity. ​If men everywhere could bring themselves to do no unfair thing, we should find a measurable fulfillment of Masonic ideals, of trade union ideals, and of the ideals of the great religions of the world. We have in the labor movement the abuses that are common to humanity. We are, as individuals, no better and no worse than others. But we have put our collective force behind certain high aims in which we believe, and which have proven their worth through the most severe tests. The trade union movement did not come into being because someone wanted it. It came into being as an economic necessity. Coming as a necessity, it has sought to function to the best advantage and in a manner to bring the largest possible good to the largest possible number of men and women. When individual handicraft gave way to factory production, the individual workman lost his power to stand on anything like an even footing with the employer. It became necessary for the wage earners to organize and to function as collective units. With organization came the practice of joint negotiation between powerful employers and great groups of wage earners. This practice has resulted in maintaining a comparatively high standard of life and work in American industry. We have light where we would otherwise have had darkness. We have freedom where we would have had bondage. We have uprightness and courage where we would have had crouching and cringing. Nothing else has contributed more toward the making of manhood and womanhood fit for America than the labor movement of our country. We are as proud as any of the industrial life of our country and of everything about it that makes for good leadership in a world which has in it so many dark places. We ask for understanding and helpfulness, and we also seek to possess them in our dealings with others. Our practice must of necessity fit the needs of our time, but our goal is afar down the road, at a point which has not yet come within the range of our vision. We desire for humanity all of the good that is possible, and we are not presumptuous enough to pretend to know how much there may be in the future.
My writing career began back in 1979, when I scored my first publication at the age of five...in the school newsletter. That story, about a little girl who died of surprise when she saw the constellations of the night sky for the first time, was just a few paragraphs long, but my teacher at the time fell in love with it and thought it deserved a wider audience. Obelia, she said, you were born to write! After such a promising start, my publishing career kind of went downhill. But whatever special quality my teacher identified in that story stayed with me, and I continued to develop it. From that time forward I continued to write stories, and eventually full length books, on many and various topics, essentially in total obscurity. Few people read my work, most of which resided in dusty drawers and cardboard boxes, but those who did noted that - whatever the topic - my authorial voice was very strong, always stamped with the slightly morbid and dry sensibility that my friends and family know as Obelia TM. There was always something slightly sadistic about me, you see; I took sinister delight in upsetting and scaring people. But I didn't really want to upset them, I'm not a bad sort of person underneath it all. So I found a legitimate channel for this slightly sadistic impulse and in this fashion I finally really found my writing feet when, after publishing a few short fictional stories in anthologies and magazines, I started writing horrifying true stories about crimes and disasters. I knew that what I loved to write was non-fiction, specifically narrative non-fiction; and that the way I wanted to do it was to take a true event and turn it into an absolutely riveting and page turning story. It has been a winding circuitous route to this place where I find myself today, after several detours which turned out not to be detours at all - a history degree, a criminology degree, years of research and writing about the saddest and most shocking incidents from our mind boggling human past. Then back in 2016, my writing mentor at the time read my latest manuscript, the book which later would become Murder by Increments, my take on the infamous Hillside Strangler case from the late seventies. She liked it enough that she encouraged me to try for professional publication with a major publisher. My mentor is traditionally published and she was absolutely confident that I would be too. As time passed however it became clear that much had changed since she had found such success in the industry. My manuscript garnered some bites and some interest, but no more than that. The agents and publishers who bothered to reply said that while it was a very good book, they didn't think they could sell it. Finally, a very decent agent came clean with me, and said what I wished someone had said from the beginning. I loved this book, she said; but I can't sell it because publishers only take on authors who have a large and active platform, a presence in the mainstream media, and a long history of bestselling publications. In other words, to sell my book to a mainstream publisher, I needed to be famous already. I immediately wrote back and profusely thanked this agent for making my path clear to me. I was going to go independent, because really, that was my only option. Well, I could have signed on with a small press, but I knew they couldn't do any more for me than I could do myself. I used to be an editor for a major publisher, hence, I could (and do) edit my own books. I had some design skills and an artistic bent, so I could design my own covers. I'm a social media addict so I could market my books online. And above all I am that most independent and uncooperative kind of person, loath to rely on anyone else, so the pain and torture of compromising with publishers about my beloved stories did not actually appeal in the least. And here I am today, three books, and thousands of sales later... and I did it all on my own. Let me tell you, there is no better feeling than that. Being an independent publisher, a one man band responsible for every aspect of producing, distributing and marketing books, is very tough, especially as I still need to work a few days a week in an office to keep myself afloat financially. But the crux of the issue is that, as an independent author, whether one fails or succeeds, it is entirely down to your own efforts. If you work with a traditional publisher instead, you simply won't have that opportunity for learning every aspect of the book business, and what it takes to be in the driver's seat of your writing career. Today I am at a point in my learning and practicing that I feel ready to take on additional projects - by other authors. Hence, I launched Estoire, my own cottage publishing enterprise, with the goal of helping promising authors polish their best work and get it in front of readers. In 2019 I am looking to take on a few projects by authors who, like me, write exciting true stories. Estoire is both a publisher and an online zine. The Estoire website features samples of books with links to the retailer where you can purchase the full-length work. Estoire pays you, the writer, according to a unique three-tiered system. Let me invest my skills in producing and marketing books in your book so it can be a success. If you want to know about how it works, head here. Estoire is the blog and personal publishing imprint of true crime and disaster analysis author OJ Modjeska. OJ's mission as an author has always been to deliver an amazing true story, amazing told. Estoire is where she collects and curates ideas for future books and writings on all her favorite topics: true crime, history, psychology and real life disasters. It also features notifications and special offers on her new releases, and reviews of books, TV and movies in her favorite genres of true crime, historical disasters and narrative history.

And what a year it has been! Hurricanes devastated coastal towns and Puerto Rico, fires are burning up California, and mass shootings are incomprehensive. And then there's Washington. It's almost scary to turn on the TV or pick up a newspaper. Before beginning a new year, we need to look back at 2017 and remember those who have left us, cherish the good times with our loved ones, and look forward to the future for our kids, grandkids, and other loved ones. As usual, I will start with the bad news and move to the good. We lost three classmates this year and some of our classmates lost loved ones. Richard Frank Schwarz passed on April 4 from cancer. Sherry Alexander passed on May 14. Sherry never joined the website and did not attend the 55-year reunion. However, contact was made with her prior to the reunion. We have lost 21 classmates since the 50-Year Reunion. Eleven of them attended the reunion. Jimmy Morris' father Roger Morris on January 5. Fred Cox's father-in-law Charles Anderwald on February 2. Fred wife Cheryl and her sister Sandra were both Lee graduates. Disc jockey Bruce Hathaway, who was a special guest at our 50-Year Reunion, passed on January 27. On the positive side of all this, Marlene Simon and Adrien Simon's dad turned 100 on April 29 and Jane Kennedy's dad turned 101 on October 28. Jane posted a very nice tribute to her "remarkable" father on the Message Forum. Having reached that hard-earned time in life that puts you on vacation for the rest of your life – AKA retirement – are Rudy Rudewick who became a RETIRED Ordained Minister on July 1 and Jane Kennedy who retired on July 28. Karen Kurth retired exactly one year ago (January 1, 2017) after 36 years with USPS. She keeps herself busy in Auburn, WA house sitting and baby sitting her grandson. Someone said "vacation"? We have some travelers among us. Having just mentioned Jane Kennedy, we'll start with her. Following her retirement, she and husband Guy took an Atlantic Crossing on the Queen Mary 2 and spent a week in England. In August, Terry Obermiller posted that he and wife Candy had just returned from a 12 day cruise through the Fjords from Norway/Denmark/Iceland. They were then scheduled to go to Israel in October for 11 days. This would be their second trip to Israel as they had been there the previous October. David Bearr had mentioned in a post that he and wife Diane were going to China April 6-15. A Facebook post on October 13 found Dana Johnson enjoying the beautiful weather in Costa Rica and closing on a condo there. Lucky you! Back on the home front, Carolyn Jacobson and husband Jack celebrated their 50th anniversary on October 14 with a big party of friends and family. Congratulations! In July John Baines welcomed a new grandson. John said to watch for George in the first round of the 2037 NFL draft. Twenty years! We'll all be watching, John. What's his last name? Doreene Saunders' grandson Jacob left on August 21 for Army Basic Training at Ft. Leonardwood, Mo. He graduated on November 2 with one stripe for having done four years of ROTC in high school. He is currently training at Ft. Lee, Va. as a tracked vehicle mechanic. Oh, so proud of this kid man! We have a published author among us. Dr. Marilyn Cummins Leighman, a retired school counselor, announced on October 4 that her first book, "Divorce: The Loss of the Dream" had been published. You can find it on Amazon.com, Barnes and Nobel.com and at bookstores. The title says it all. Adrien Simon and her committee will be picking up speed after the first of the year in planning the 55-Year Reunion to be held September 29, 2018. Watch the website for more information as it becomes available. Oh, and I almost forgot! Our alma mater got a new name this year: Legacy of Educational Excellence AKA L.E.E. The news/information that I put in the Year in Review comes from several sources. I have no filters when it comes to stealing something off Facebook or a post someone puts on our website. But I also like emails or phone calls if you have news that I can post on the website and/or put in the Year in Review.
**Generate more qualified leads: **Anyone willing to listen to a 30-minute show is probably more interested in your product than someone skimming a 500-word blog post. Create a voice for your company (literally): Your show's host puts a voice to your brand, making your company more relatable and human. Build a better connection with your audience: A 30-minute show with 5,000 downloads in one month is 300,000 hours, or 1.5 years, of direct one-on-one engagement. Amazing. Long story short – podcasting can help your startup grow. In this post, I'll share what your startup needs to know to create a winning podcast from scratch. Remember that you're competing for your audience's time, so your show must be entertaining. Podcast listeners have different expectations for content – even if the content is primarily educational. Mechanically speaking the "top ten tactics for viral marketing" isn't going to have the same draw as Serial or The Tim Ferriss Show. It's tempting to jump into podcasting with a run-of-the mill interview based show. Part of the reason this seems like a no-brainer is because there are tons of people already doing this, but the world doesn't need another "Viral Marketing Rockstar" podcast interviewing the same guests as all the other marketing shows. Present a fresh take on your customers' passions and pain points by creating a unique and consistent format. What about doing your interviews during happy hour? Or starting each episode with a hilarious segment that only your niche understands? The format of your show must be as unique as the value proposition of your product. Podcast audio is stored on media specific servers that automatically generate an RSS feed to submit to podcast directories like the Apple iOS podcasting app. Libsyn is the most popular solution, but other options to check out are Blubrry and Spreaker. They all provide metrics and dashboards to track listening and growth. Apple iOS and iTunes is by far the most popular platform for listening and discovering podcasts, accounting for over 80% of all mobile listening. 66% of all podcast listening occurs on mobile, and the iOS podcasting app itself is responsible for 74% of the listening on the iOS platform. Translation: Submit your podcast to Apple's platform to put yourself in front of the largest possible audience. Although the audio itself is the central piece of content, each episode of your podcast needs a home on your website. This is known as the "show notes" page. It's also where you'll find the majority of SEO juice created by your show. Here's a show notes page example from SkilledUp: Your show notes pages should have a simple URL so users can remember the link and access episodes later. Embedding the audio is simple. Wordpress offers a number of plugins that sync with the audio hosting servers. My personal favorite is The Smart Podcast Player by Pat Flynn of Smart Passive Income, one of the top-rated shows on iTunes. PowerPress by Blubrry is a great alternative. And most hosting services offer HTML5 embedded players that are easy to insert within your CMS. If you're going to test podcasting as a marketing channel, you'll need to play the long game. You won't see results overnight, and it will likely take a few months of publishing regular content until you see a core audience develop and a return on your investment. I recommend publishing once a week for at least 12 weeks. Here's why… iTunes rankings are somewhat of a mystery. What we do know is the iTunes podcast home page provides front and center exposure for all new shows gaining traction. In my experience, this lasts around eight weeks and afterwards podcasts experience a dramatic drop in listeners. Continuing to publish for four additional weeks allows for basic insight into what your company might expect into the future. Like Google, Apple doesn't publish the secret sauce to how podcasts rank within their podcasting platforms, and there's no equivalent of Google Analytics or Mixpanel specific to Apple platforms. However, there is enough anecdotal evidence, and common sense, to suggest that rankings revolve around the number of downloads in a given period of time and the quantity and quality of reviews a show receives. If you're working at a startup with less than 200 employees, it's a quick win for everyone to listen and contribute ratings and reviews. You want as many reviews as possible, so your podcast storefront crushes it like the StartUp Podcast: Outside of word of mouth marketing, which accounts for 74% of audience growth, iTunes SEO is among the most significant factors for discovering and growing and audience. For both the podcast as a whole and individual episodes, titles, descriptions, authors, and all other text fields are where you create the greatest SEO value. Check out this article on iTunes SEO if you'd like to learn more. You don't want your show to sound like a low powered FM radio station with a weak signal. The bad part is that great sound and editing takes time. Even once you get the hang of editing, chopping up audio quickly devolves into mechanical grunt work. The good part is there are a number of excellent services that could take this off your plate. Podfly is a full-stack production service that handles all your audio. They're my personal favorite and aren't outrageously expensive. They'll even post the show notes to your site and help with content strategy. Libsyn and other distribution platforms offer decent metrics on audience engagement that can be broken down by episode, day, time, geography, and the technology used to listen to the podcast. However, the most important part of tracking podcast success occurs in your analytics software. This includes measuring traffic to your website, conversions, or any other KPIs. The most important metrics to keep in mind are time spent on the show notes page, and most importantly, bounce rate. I once produced a show that had a bounce rate that was half of all other content pages. These metrics give insight into whether podcasting is a viable channel to grow your startup. Is podcasting for you? Give it a shot. By following these tips, you'll be well on your way to creating a killer podcast for your startup. Do you have any more questions on how to start a podcast? Or still trying to decide if it's right for your company? Let us know in the comments.

Premium Choice has been included in the 2019 edition of The Parliamentary Review, published in April 2019. The Parliamentary review is a series of independent publications that features leading business executives demonstrating their expertise in their industry. The publication is sent to over 500,000 leading business executives, policy makes and other relevant individuals, with the aim of raising standards by highlighting best practice. In this edition, Richard Dornan, Managing Director for Underwriting and Business Development of Premium Choice shares his expertise and knowledge in the insurance industry. Richard tells the Parliamentary Review about Premium Choice's specialist approach for providing motor insurance to their clients. Founded in 1999, Premium Choice is a leading insurance broker based in Wolverhampton. The company has sold over 1 million insurance policies and employs around 200 people, many of whom are insurance experts. Over the past 20 years, Premium Choice's customer-focused approach has helped clients get competitive prices on their insurance premiums. The company has a niche approach to motor insurance and can insure almost anything from a standard vehicle to a military tank. The company has come a long way in 20 years. Before the internet, Premium Choice would acquire new business through the Yellow Pages and magazines. Now, the company embraces the latest market-leading technology to attract new clients, which also reduces the risk of fraud. Richard explains how Premium Choice is evolving in a competitive industry. "We are always working on new and evolving product lines to widen our footprint across the industry and provide more solutions to more customers. These are challenging times in the insurance industry, with uncertainty over Brexit and changes To GDPR and the FCA's Insurance Distribution Directive. "Uncertainty is the real challenge we face, and this isn't limited to domestic legislation, Brexit may well affect the cost of parts and cars if entry tariffs are imposed. Insurance policies will need to be revised if drivers are no longer allowed to freely travel between EU countries as they currently do. Premium Choice will continue to grow with innovation at the heart of the process. The company plans to increase its presence in the non-standard market, continue to look for diversification and is committed to keeping premiums competitive. "We will do everything we can to keep premiums competitive. We believe that passing external costs like increases in in insurance tax or car prices onto customers isn't good for business, and we will do everything we can to avoid that.

What if you didn't know how old you were? How old would you be? The way you think about yourself impacts the way you feel physically. Living young is as much about your mental and emotional health as it is your physical health. It is about being optimistic, staying cognitively and physically active, and having a high quality of life. Studies indicate that self-perception has a greater impact on survival than blood pressure and cholesterol levels. 3 Your positive attitude will help keep you going and help you feel your best at any age. Goals help you grow and develop at any age. Look forward to the future, no matter your life stage. Maintain and pursue personal goals, professional aspirations, and physical targets. Start a new hobby, learn a language, or take up new challenges. Don't use your age as an excuse to miss out on what you love doing or what you've always wanted to do. As Oliver Wendell Holmes once said, "People do not quit playing because they grow old; they grow old because they quit playing." Living younger longer is a mentality, an outlook, an attitude. With a youthful mindset, you can promote your active, energetic, and healthy years. No matter how long you live, you're bound to live better. society is full of subtle cues about aging as an undesirable, deteriorating stage of life—and these unconscious cues may shape our views of ourselves, the way we act, and even shape our bodies. So keep a youthful state of mind, and defy your age. This was brought to you from natureme.mynuskin.com.

Drew was crowned the gold award winner in the Unsung Hero For Customer Service category of the awards, beating 75 other finalists to the prestigious title. The accolade recognises Drew's exceptional achievements in ensuring that Beverley's holiday guests enjoy outstanding levels of personal service and hospitality. Drew stepped up to receive his honour at the glittering finals of the Devon Tourism Awards which were help this autumn at the Great Hall at the University of Exeter. The customer service superstar's award followed hot on the heels of his recent success in the Herald Express English Riviera and South Devon Tourism and Hospitality Awards 2016. Drew, a popular figure among holidaymakers at the multi-award winning park, came away from that ceremony with a sparkling silver award for his skills. He was nominated for both awards by members of the Beverley Holidays team who were keen to highlight Drew's unwavering dedication to providing guests with amazing life-long memories.

"Crossing the Bar" is an 1889 poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. It is considered that Tennyson wrote it in elegy; the narrator uses an extended metaphor to compare death with crossing the "sandbar" between the river of life, with its outgoing "flood", and the ocean that lies beyond death, the "boundless deep", to which we return. Overview Tennyson is believed to have written the poem (after suffering a serious illness) while on the sea, crossing the Solent from Aldworth to Farringford on the Isle of Wight. Separately, it has been suggested he may have written it on a yacht anchored in Salcombe, where there is a moaning sandbar. "The words", he said, "came in a moment". Shortly before he died, Tennyson told his son Hallam to "put 'Crossing the Bar' at the end of all editions of my poems". The poem contains four stanzas that generally alternate between long and short lines. Tennyson employs a traditional ABAB rhyme scheme. Scholars have noted that the form of the poem follows the content: the wavelike quality of the long-then-short lines parallels the narrative thread of the poem. The extended metaphor of "crossing the bar" represents travelling serenely and securely from life through death. The Pilot is a metaphor for God, whom the speaker hopes to meet face to face. Tennyson explained, "The Pilot has been on board all the while, but in the dark I have not seen him…[He is] that Divine and Unseen Who is always guiding us." Set to music The words were set to music in April 1890 as a song for high voice and piano by Charles Villiers Stanford and as a hymn, "Freshwater", for four-part chorus by Sir Hubert Parry (publ. 1893). Other settings include those by Sir Joseph Barnby, Geoffrey Shaw, Charles Ives, Gwyneth Van Anden Walker and John Philip Sousa. In 2012 the poem was set to music by Rani Arbo, with a subsequent choral arrangement by Peter Amidon. A slightly rearranged version of the latter was later produced by The Spooky Men's Chorale and included on their album called Warm. Text In popular culture The poem is humorously referenced in Walt Disney's 1942 Goofy cartoon The Olympic Champ; while Goofy haphazardly attempts the pole vault, the narrator states that the track-and-field event reminds him of Tennyson's "Crossing the Bar", and quotes the poem's first stanza. In the darkly humorous "We Will All Go Together When We Go", humourist/songwriter Tom Lehrer sings of a humanity-ending nuclear holocaust; the song includes the line, "and let there be no moaning of the bar", implying that no one will be left to mourn the war's victims. The poem has also found its way into the DLC Frozen Wilds of the videogame Horizon Zero Dawn, where it is mentioned as the favourite poem of the AI CYAN.

Q: how can we fill all empty list inside the list in python from another list element? have a list like this > lst1=[1,2,3] > lst2=[[],['abc','bcd','acd'],[],['sdf','ghj','klh'],[]] want output like : > [[1],['abc','bcd','acd'],[2],['sdf','ghj','klh'],[3]] have tried to split the list of 2nd list and then aggregating by A: One approach: lst1=[1,2,3] lst2=[[],['abc','bcd','acd'],[],['sdf','ghj','klh'],[]] it = iter(lst1) for i in lst2[::2]: i.append(next(it)) print(lst2) Output [[1], ['abc', 'bcd', 'acd'], [2], ['sdf', 'ghj', 'klh'], [3]] An alternative that returns a new list: it = iter(lst1) res = [l if i % 2 == 1 else [*l, next(it)] for i, l in enumerate(lst2)] print(res) Output [[1], ['abc', 'bcd', 'acd'], [2], ['sdf', 'ghj', 'klh'], [3]] A: Here is an approach similar to that of Dani Mesajo. Make an iterator of the fill list, then pull the next item for empty lists. l1 = iter([1, 2, 3]) l2 = [[], ["abc", "bcd", "acd"], [], ["sdf", "ghj", "klh"], []] print([l or next(l1) for l in l2]) yields: ➜ python listfill.py [1, ['abc', 'bcd', 'acd'], 2, ['sdf', 'ghj', 'klh'], 3] A: This is my solution that checks if an element from lst2 is an empty list, and if it is, the corresponding item from lst1 is added to new_list, otherwise the corresponding item from lst2 is added. n is used as the index to use for lst1, which is incremented each time an item from lst1 is added instead of an item from lst2. lst1=[1,2,3] lst2=[[],['abc','bcd','acd'],[],['sdf','ghj','klh'],[]] new_list = [] n = 0 for l in lst2: if len(l) == 0: new_list.append([lst1[n]]) n += 1 else: new_list.append(l) print(new_list) A: A simple loop will do the job: Code: import copy lst1 = [1,2,3] lst2 = [[],['abc','bcd','acd'],[],['sdf','ghj','klh'],[]] merged_lst = copy.deepcopy(lst2) for i in range(len(lst1)): merged_lst[i*2].append(lst1[i]) print(merged_lst) Output: [[1], ['abc', 'bcd', 'acd'], [2], ['sdf', 'ghj', 'klh'], [3]] A: We've to check whether the inner list of lst2 is empty or not, if yes, add the element of lst1 to it. We'll do it using two loop. One loop for iterating lst1 and second to ieratw lst2. The moment we get empty list, we'll add element of lst1 to it. Your code: lst1=[1,2,3] lst2=lst2 = [[],['abc','bcd','acd'],[],['sdf','ghj','klh'],[]] for i in lst1: for j in lst2: if len(j)==0: j.append(i) break #break the inner for loop print(lst2)
Check that the weather is conducive for cruising. It is always best to sail under clear skies. Yacht charter companies cancel your scheduled trip if the weather is bad or if the seas are rough. Wear proper footwear. Boat surfaces get slippery when wet, so wear footwear that is waterproof and with good traction. You can also go barefoot or wear comfortable light-soled shoes on-board. Casual wear or beach wear is recommended, but this depends on the time of your cruise. During evenings or the colder months, bring a shawl or sweater. On a sunny day, bring sunscreen, hats and sunglasses. Bring travel and identification documents, like passport or visa. The Dubai Coast Guard usually inspects these documents before giving the go-signal to sail. If you suffer from seasickness, bring motion sickness medicines or take one before the trip. Yachts should also be equipped with first-aid kits in case passengers need medicines on-board. Before the cruise, check the seaworthiness of the yacht. When you go cruising or deep sea fishing in Dubai, yacht companies provide full insurance for the yacht, the crew, and the guests on-board. Pay attention to safety briefings given by the captain or crew member. Make sure you know where the life jackets, life rafts, and other safety equipment are located. If you have children, check that there are life jackets that fit them as well. Leave the booze behind. Alcohol and safe boating do not mix well. Some yachts do not allow alcoholic drinks on-board, but if it is allowed, make sure to keep it light. Let your captain and crew know if you do not feel well during the cruise. If there is a need to turn the boat around to get people to safety, let them know immediately. While enjoyment is the main purpose of cruising and fishing, safety should also be a priority. Fun can never be complete if accidents happen on-board. It is always best to stay safe to have a truly fantastic time on a yacht charter.
How One of the Most Vulnerable Governors Staged a Comeback After the state sent out a false nuclear attack warning in January, Hawaii Gov. David Ige trailed in polls. Now he's favored to win reelection. by Alan Greenblatt | August 8, 2018 AT 8:00 AM Hawaii Gov. David Ige (AP/Caleb Jones) Last Updated Aug. 13 at 8:19 a.m. ET One of the year's greatest political comeback stories is playing out in Hawaii. Gov. David Ige, who looked like a sure loser a few months ago, now appears poised to win a second term. Polls conducted this spring showed Ige trailing Congresswoman Colleen Hanabusa by 20-point margins. At a time when fears of a North Korean nuclear attack were high, a false emergency alert in January warning Hawaiians of an impending ballistic missile -- and Ige's slow response to it -- appeared to doom his reelection chances. In Unprecedented Move, Oversight Committee Urges Maine Governor to Apologize for 'Undignified' Outburst In Tight Race for Arizona Governor, Focus Is on Education Funding After 'Grueling Campaign,' Hawaii Governor Wins Democratic Primary As November Nears, More Governors' Races Become Tossups Blue-State Seats Democrats Can't Win But polls heading into Saturday's Democratic primary showed Ige with the lead. And in Hawaii, all the action is in Democratic primaries. Republicans are essentially irrelevant. They hold no seats in the state Senate and five seats out of 51 in the state House. The Democratic nominee for governor will be considered a lock against state Rep. Andria Tupola, the GOP nominee. "The first and most important thing is that Colleen Hanabusa [Ige's opponent] ran a terrible campaign," says Colin Moore, who directs the University of Hawaii's public policy center. "She wasn't in the state for the most important period" -- because she was serving in Congress -- "and never really articulated a clear campaign message that gave voters a reason to vote for her." Ironically for a governor whose fortunes were almost sunk by a false nuclear warning, Ige's chances were revived largely thanks to natural disasters. Huge rainstorms over Kauai in April led to historic flooding there, damaging or destroying more than 500 homes. Meanwhile, volcanic lava has ruined so many homes on the Big Island of Hawaii that, as Hurricane Hector approached, there was mordant joking that there's nothing left to destroy. Recovery is ongoing, but the disasters gave Ige the chance to demonstrate leadership qualities that were conspicuously not on display during the false missile alert. "Gov. Ige has run a vigorous campaign driven by effective messaging, combined with the advantage of being the incumbent during two major disasters," says Donalyn Dela Cruz, a communications consultant. Incumbency provided Ige with other advantages. He was able to make the local news when he held bill signing ceremonies, while Hanabusa was trapped 5,000 miles away in Washington. Neil Abercrombie, Ige's predecessor, resigned his seat in Congress to make his run for governor, recognizing the difficulties of seeking the office long distance. Hanabusa did not make that move. Four years ago, she did give up her seat in the U.S. House to run unsuccessfully for the Senate. In 2016, she won back her House seat. Running for her third different office in as many election cycles led to some grumbling that she was seeking the governorship mostly to satisfy career ambitions. Although she derided Ige's leadership abilities, Hanabusa had not articulated major policy differences with him. She was a longtime labor lawyer and had received some union support. But Ige has the endorsement of the Hawaii State Teachers Association and the Sierra Club, and managed to present himself as the more progressive choice. While Ige is running at a time of historically low unemployment in the state -- its 2 percent rate in May was the lowest recorded by any state since the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics began keeping track back in 1976 -- the cost of living and housing remains a serious sore point. Ige himself unseated Abercrombie four years ago. If he had lost, it would have been the second time in a row the governor lost his seat in a primary -- something that's happened only a handful of times in American history.

Election results from November suggest they will have a big year. But with near record low representation in the states, Democrats need more than that to shift the balance of power. The president has emerged as a central issue in races all over the country, underscoring a shift toward partisanship that has intensified since his election.

Rome, Italy, Jun 7, 2015 / 03:53 pm ().- The head of Ukraine's Greek Catholic Church said the country is facing a "humanitarian catastrophe" with global consequences that cannot be ignored by the international community. He called on participants of next week's G7 Summit in Bavaria to work toward effective solutions. "The aggression against Ukraine is a challenge for preserving peace in the world which cannot pretend that nothing happens in Eastern Europe," said Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, major archbishop of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, an eastern rite Catholic Church in full communion with Rome. Conflict erupted in Ukraine last year in February when the country's former president was ousted following months of violent protest, and a new government appointed. In March, Ukraine's eastern peninsula of Crimea was annexed by Russia and pro-Russian separatist rebels have since taken control of eastern portions of Ukraine, around Donetsk and Luhansk. More than 6,000 people have died in the conflict in eastern Ukraine. Rebels have been supported by both Russian arms and troops, according to both Ukraine and Western nations. A ceasefire was brokered and officially began at midnight Feb. 15, however fighting has continued. He spoke of the Vatican's diplomatic commitment to helping find a peaceful solution to the Ukrainian conflict, as well as a possible visit of Pope Francis to Ukraine. Q: In February a ceasefire in the conflict zones of Ukraine was agreed to, however fighting seems to continue. Has the conflict improved at all since February, and are there signs on either side that fighting could end by the 2016 decentralization goal? A: We have received the news about a cease-fire agreement in Minsk with great hope. However, it is with sadness that we must admit that these agreements have not been implemented. The cease-fire is being violated. It's true that the intensity of fighting on the occupied territories has decreased, but it doesn't mean that the fighting has stopped at all. Every day we receive sad news that someone has been killed or wounded in the result of continued fighting. Yesterday (May 27) we learned that our army was under sustained shelling near Mariupol. The most alarming for the Ukrainian society, however, is the fact that over the last months, hundreds of pieces of heavy weaponry have reached Ukrainian territory from the side of the Russian Federation. This equipment includes tanks (there are about 700 of them in Donbass according to the Ukrainian authorities), heavy artillery, mobile rocket launchers etc. Besides that, according to the information of the Ukrainian government and international observers, there is a massive accumulation of Russian troops in Ukraine and on the Russian border. These facts make us believe that Russian side with its heavy military presence in Ukraine is not seeking peace, they don't rely on the rule of law or on the respect of the international agreements but they abide only to the rule of force. Using the threat of arms, Russia is trying to dictate its will to Ukraine. In my opinion, as long as the fighting continues in Ukraine and there is an increase in Russian military presence on the occupied territories of Donbas, the true political process, which would lead to a peaceful solution of the conflict, is unlikely to bring any results. So in this sense, the intended decentralization as a part of the constitutional reform of the Ukrainian government will have no effect on the peace process either. Q: The topic of the Ukrainian conflict will most likely be addressed during the G7 Summit in Bavaria June 7-8. Do you have hopes for the outcome of the discussion, and are there specific themes that you would like to see leaders address? A: For ordinary Ukrainian citizens it is very important that the international community, especially the G7 Summit, considers the war in Ukraine not under the perspective of a local conflict but as a conflict with serious global consequences coming into effect now and even more so in the future. I think an encouragement for Russia's violation of the international laws and military aggression is the fact that no international institution nowadays has the power to provide proper functioning of the international security system which used to guarantee peace between the nations in the past. In these circumstances, no one in the globalized world can be at peace, no one can feel safety, even if he/she finds himself/herself far away from Eastern Ukraine. The aggression against Ukraine is a challenge for preserving peace in the world which cannot pretend that nothing happens in Eastern Europe. I would like that the G7 Summit in Bavaria takes into account that the Eastern Europe now faces a humanitarian catastrophe which, considering the territory it might effect, is the greatest crisis since the end of the WWII. Let us stop the war together! Let us show solidarity to Ukraine which is a victim of unjustified aggression! Q: Pope Francis has shown great interest in the Ukrainian conflict, and is credited with having helped restore relations between the United States and Cuba. Do you think that the Vatican could help in reaching a peace agreement in Ukraine? A: Holy Father Pope Francis has stated on numerous occasions that he will do everything possible to prevent the outbreak of a new war in Europe. During the last visit "Ad limina" of Catholic Bishops of Ukraine to the Vatican (Feb. 20, 2015), Pope Francis assured our Bishops that the Holy See will do its best to secure peace agreements in Ukraine. How it will happen, what steps will be taken, we don't know. But the history of our Church teaches us that the peace of Christ always wins over the war, and the truth of God is on the side of those who are unjustly treated. Seventy years ago all our Bishops were imprisoned by the Stalin regime, our Church structures were destroyed, our church property was confiscated. Our enemies thought they put to an end the very existence of our Church, but to their great surprise after many years of clandestine existence in the underground, our Church has risen to a full ecclesial existence 25 years on the eve of Ukraine's Independence. We want to believe that today God is with Ukraine because our country is a victim of unjust military aggression. We are convinced that our Savior, who became a victim Himself on the cross for the salvation of the humankind, will help us. And the Holy Father, who is Vicar of Christ on earth, is and will be our support and our help in these difficult times. Q: The Pope has also been invited by the bishops to visit Ukraine. Has there been a response on the part of the Vatican as to when a visit could foreseeably take place? A: The Catholic Bishops of Ukraine as well as Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko have officially invited the Pope to visit Ukraine. In our opinion, similarly to military conflicts between Argentina and Chile as well as Argentina and Great Britain, the peace mission of the Holy Father helped to stop the war. So we are convinced that the visit of the Holy Father to Ukraine would be a very powerful gesture of peace which, empowered by the Holy Spirit, would accomplish what is not possible for the G7. As far as I know there is no official response of the Holy See to this invitation, but there is no decline of the invitation either. So we pray and we hope that this visit will take place in the nearest future.

vp19 Films 'They Knew What They Wanted,' but can't get on DVD : They Knew What They Wanted [+1] : (no subject) Films 'They Knew What They Wanted,' but can't get on DVD Current mood: frustrated It's no secret that Carole Lombard's 1940 drama "They Knew What They Wanted," teaming her with Charles Laughton for the second time, has never been made available on an authorized DVD in America, probably a result of rights issues with the Sidney Howard estate (Howard wrote the play, which won a Pulitzer Prize in 1925). But misery loves company, and it's hardly the only movie that's in DVD limbo. New York Post film critic Lou Lumenick recently wrote about it (http://nypost.com/2014/06/18/64-clips-of-movies-you-cant-find-on-dvd/), including brief clips of the MIA movies. Some of the other classic-era titles that are absent from DVD -- many featuring actors or directors Carole worked with -- include: * "The Crowd" (1928), King Vidor's pioneering slice-of-life tale. * "The Greene Murder Case" (1929), one of three early turns for William Powell as Philo Vance. * "Once In A Lifetime" (1932), an adaptation of the Kaufman and Hart comedic play about screenwriters during Hollywood's chaotic transition to sound. * "Letty Lynton" (1932), which hasn't been seen by virtually anybody since MGM withdrew it from circulation in 1935, much to the dismay of Joan Crawford fans. * "Call Her Savage" (1932), one of Clara Bow's final features for Fox. * "Man's Castle" (1933), a Loretta Young-Spencer Tracy Depression-era gem directed by Frank Borzage. * "The Story Of Temple Drake" (1933), a steamy pre-Code adaptation of William Faulkner's "Sanctuary," starring Miriam Hopkins. * "The Moon'a Our Home" (1936), starring former married couple Margaret Sullavan and Henry Fonda...which Lombard and James Stewart took the lead role for a 1940 "Lux Radio Theater" adaptation. * "Boy Meets Girl" (1938), another comedic tale of screenwriters, starring James Cagney and Pat O'Brien, with supporting turns from Marie Wilson and Ronald Reagan. * "The Sea Wolf" (1941), a Jack London tale starring Edward G. Robinson and John Garfield. * "To Each His Own" (1946), for which Olivia de Havilland won a Best Actress Academy Award, directed by Mitchell Leisen. (Other films of his that are DVD MIA include "I Wanted Wings" and "Lady In The Dark.") * "Beau James" (1957), an atypical Bob Hope role as 1920s New York mayor Jimmy Walker. * "Raintree County" (1957), a Civil War romantic epic starring Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift, which apparently needs considerable restorqtion. * And... "Dynamite" (1929), a Cecil B. De Mille film where Lombard had the female lead for a few days before being fired. Carole shows off a ruffled dress in our latest Lombard LiveJournal header, p1202-435. It's on YouTube; I watched it, for the first time, a few weeks ago. vp19 at 2014-06-22 16:09 (UTC) (Link) Re: They Knew What They Wanted I noticed that, too, when checking out the Post's link for the brief excerpt (one I decided not to use because Lombard wasn't part of the footage). I'm uncertain how long it will last there, as is the case for other releases of Carole's that are on YouTube in full despite no official North American DVD release. (RKO issued a videocassette version in the 1980s, and I believe it's been issued for a non-Region 1 DVD in Europe.) Similar conditions apply for many of the films Lumenick mentioned. oh, what a nice picture of the late mister spencer tracy, together with the late miss loretta young, in "man's castle". oh, a very handsome, beautiful actor is he.
Tennessee Players Say Alabama Can't Win a National Title, Which Seems Like a Bad Idea Mississippi State v Tennessee / Carmen Mandato/Getty Images Tennessee will walk into Bryant-Denny Stadium as five-touchdown underdogs to Alabama. Things could get very, very ugly in the latest renewal of a series that used to be a pretty decent rivalry and is now incredibly one-sided. Some Volunteers appear to have -- in their limited wisdom -- poked the bear by opining on Alabama's national championship chances to ESPN's Molly McGrath. The most interesting moment of UCLA-Stanford: @MollyAMcGrath just now, plugging the Tennessee-Alabama game, says she talked to a couple of Vols players who said, "This doesn't look like an Alabama team that can win a national championship." — Stewart Mandel (@slmandel) October 18, 2019 Why? Who knows? I guess when is 2-4 and preparing for another savage beatdown, there's a tendency to lash out. Above the obvious motivational elements that make this type of chatter a bad idea, it's also confusing. While the Crimson Tide's defense has looked more pedestrian than in recent years, its offense has catapulted to a whole other world and is putting up 51 points/game. Tua Tagovailoa has 27 touchdown passes against a single interception. No road team has managed to stay within 28 in Tuscaloosa. If this is what a down season looks like, every other program in the country will sign up for a down season. Jeremy Pruitt, who is just trying to keep the train in contact with the tracks at this point, can't like hearing that his team is creating bulletin-board material out of whole cloth with no discernible upside. Definitely an unusual strategy.
I dont know how many people have seen this commercial, but I think it may be one of the best ever…. hey never seen that before, very cool. great outing you had wed night! I have never seen that commercial before. It was pretty good! This commercial ranks with the 1979 "Mean" Joe Green commercial for Coke (YouTube link below). Thanks for highlighting it, as I had never seen it aired either. Was there a similar major influence in your childhood development as a pitcher?
Acoustic sensibilities from two diverse backgrounds converge in a homage to the quintessential sounds of American rock music. Randy Bales (guitar, vocals) and Dr. Lisa Chu (violin) bring fresh collaborative energy to their interpretations of cult classics as well as their own captivating original music. Their sounds recall a familiar time, with the exciting twist of modern inspiration. In performance, you can now hear original music created by Chinese Melodrama, as well as their signature acoustic interpretations of cult classics by celebrated musicians ranging from Neil Young, Cat Stevens, and James Taylor, to Led Zeppelin, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and Metallica. Great to happen upon your music last night. I don't know about the name though, there is SO much more than the sum of the parts. Good big sound, that is hard to do in any capacity. Great instrumentation, love to see you add Riq or Tar. It would be nice to have bios without the distraction of ambient noise, a bit more in production values, (mic and quiet) would serve the curious with the same quality you put into your music. I know you did not ask for this but I could not help myself. I like your music, i would like to see you succeed. Duly impressed nonetheless, and with pretty much all of the musicians that came up. What a treat. Lemme know if you want photos and video. Your band would be fun.
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - August 6, 2008) - Marathon Acquisition Corp. (AMEX: MAQ.U) (AMEX: MAQ) (OTCBB: MAQ.WS) today announced that it has concluded its Consent Solicitation in connection with the previously-announced merger with Global Ship Lease, Inc. Pursuant to the Consent Solicitation, Marathon has received the requisite consent of at least a majority of its issued and outstanding warrants to amend the Warrant Agreement governing its outstanding warrants to allow for the consummation of its merger with Global Ship Lease.

The proposed amendment has been effected by a Third Supplemental Warrant Agreement, which has been executed by Marathon and the Warrant Agent. The shareholder vote to approve the merger and related proposals is the remaining step to effecting the merger and consummating the transaction. The shareholder meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, August 12th, 2008. Marathon Acquisition Corp.'s trust value per share as of July 31st, 2008 was approximately $7.93.

Incorporated in the Marshall Islands, Global Ship Lease commenced operations in December 2007 with a business of owning and chartering out containerships under long-term, fixed rate charters to world class container liner companies. Global Ship Lease currently owns 12 vessels and has contracts in place to purchase an additional five vessels for $437 million from CMA CGM four of which are expected to be delivered in December 2008 and one in July 2009. The merger transaction values Global Ship Lease and its seventeen vessel fleet at approximately $1.0 billion. Following stockholder and warrantholder approval of the merger, Marathon's stockholders will own approximately 66% of Global Ship Lease and CMA CGM will own approximately 34%. Once all of the contracted vessels have been delivered, Global Ship Lease will have a 17 vessel fleet with total capacity of 66,297 TEU and a weighted average age of 5.5 years. All of the contracted vessels are under long-term charters to CMA CGM with an average remaining charter term of approximately 11 years. In connection with the its previously announced merger with Global Ship Lease and the required stockholder approval and warrantholder consent, Marathon has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (i) a Registration Statement on Form F-4 containing a joint proxy statement/prospectus and (ii) other documents regarding the proposed transaction. The joint proxy statement/prospectus and a form of proxy have been mailed to the stockholders and warrantholders of Marathon, seeking their approval of the transaction. Before making any voting decision, Marathon's stockholders are urged to read the joint proxy statement/prospectus regarding the merger carefully and in its entirety because it contains important information about the proposed merger.

Marathon's stockholders and warrantholders may also obtain, without charge, a copy of the joint proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents by directing a request by mail to Michael Gross at Marathon Acquisition Corp., 500 Park Avenue, 5th Floor, New York, New York 10022 or by telephone at (212) 993-1670. Marathon and its directors and officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from Marathon's stockholders with respect to the proposed merger. Information about Marathon's directors and executive officers and their ownership of Marathon's common stock is set forth in Marathon's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Stockholders may obtain additional information regarding the interests of Marathon and its directors and executive officers in the merger, which may be different than those of Marathon's stockholders generally, by reading the joint proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents regarding the proposed merger.

Alcatraz Wharf is located on the southeast side of Alcatraz Island, in San Francisco Bay, California, US. Classified as building number 33 of the Alcatraz Island National Historic Landmark, its historic name variants were "Alcatraz Dock" and "Alcatraz Pier". It is the main access point to Alcatraz. Another dock on the island's northwest side was only used for rock loading. The wharf contained many of the islands historic buildings, including Building 64 (Alcatraz Defensive Barracks), the Bombproof Barracks, Chinatown, Ranger Office, Garage, Dock Tower, Storage Vault, and Firebox #3. History The wharf, or boat dock, was established on Alcatraz in the 1850s to permit the landing of men and building materials to construct a fort completed in 1859. In 1867, the General McPherson was built to serve the island and other military institutions in the San Francisco Bay Area, as Alcatraz became a long-term military prison from 1868. The steamer towed officers, prisoners and food and water supplies to island between 1867 and 1886, landing at the dock twice daily before being replaced. During the time as a federal penitentiary, a prisoner once attempted to escape on a boat from the boat by dressing as an officer. The Sally Port led from the dock to the original citadel on Alcatraz along a walkway, above a dry moat. Today the dock meets visitors to the museum on the island and is served by boat trips daily. Building 64 lies in front of the dock, built in 1905. In the mid-1880s, work on the wharf area was undertaken to repair it and to create coal sheds and a boathouse. The fort's engine house was located on the wharf. The oil steamer "Rosecrans," owned by the Associated Oil Company, was destroyed by fire above the water line and sank in deep water off the wharf in the early 1910s. Her crew of forty-two men escaped by jumping into the bay and swimming ashore. Additionally, at just 10 years old, David Finney was the youngest person to swim to Alcatraz and back. Seismic rehabilitation of the wharf occurred in the early 2000s. The retrofit to the existing wharf and its facilities consisted of concrete demolition, excavation, and installation of tiebacks. Reinforced steel and concrete were added to a new deck. Work was also done on the deteriorated piles under the wharf deck.

Yemen has become an Iranian proxy war against Israel Katherine Zimmerman and Nicholas Heras Originally published in Foreign Policy On Jan. 17, strikes launched by Iran-backed Houthi forces in Yemen killed three people in Abu Dhabi, prompting Emirati- and Saudi-led military escalations against the group that have caused the deaths of dozens of Yemeni civilians over the past week. The Houthis have warned of more attacks to come and launched another attack on Abu Dhabi early on Jan. 24. Yemen's civil war began in 2014. Although it has ground on for the better part of a decade, peace seems no closer today than it did eight years ago. That September, the Houthi rebels seized control of Yemen's capital of Sanaa, provoking a Saudi-led military intervention in March 2015 to restore the internationally recognized Yemeni government. In 2019, the United Arab Emirates, part of the Saudi alliance, drew down its commitments in Yemen as progress stagnated and criticism of the civilian toll from coalition activities sharpened. After taking office last year, U.S. President Joe Biden called the war a "humanitarian and strategic catastrophe" and ramped up diplomacy to end it. Yet fighting continues, and the humanitarian situation remains dire as funding shortages force cuts in emergency assistance and civilians navigate the threats of landmines and airstrikes. If confirmed, the successful Jan. 17 Houthi strikes show an expanding range of the group's capabilities. The implications for the Houthis' ability to act on their threat of further retaliation are evident for the Gulf nations directly involved in military operations in Yemen. But by transferring long-range capabilities to the Houthis, Iran has also established Houthi-controlled Yemen as a staging ground to pressure Israel. Read the rest in Foreign Policy.

Q: Correct tense form for choosing something from given options My friend and I were discussing some phrases. I asked her to choose one out of three of them. When she did she said: "I choose this one". Is present simple tense valid here? Since she has already chosen one of the phrases I think the correct answer should be either "I chose this one" or "I've chosen this one". Our conversation lasted for just 1-2 minutes.

Wrong tire pressure is the leading cause of tire wear! Check your tire pressure frequently. I don't think that there is one piece of advice which is more important than this. The Rubber Manufacturer's Association (RMA) lists improper tire pressure as the most important factor in shortening the length of tire's lives. It is the first in their list of recommended practices which they list as PART. The RMA reports that under inflation produces needless stress on tires and increases their wear, lessens the control you have over the vehicle and increases your risk of an accident. A tire can lose up to half of its pressure and still appear to be normal. Pressure which is too low will cause tires to overheat, especially at high speeds and greatly increase the chance of suffering a blowout. The morning is usually suggested, but if you have to drive to some place to check the pressure, you may get a distorted pressure check caused by the warming of the tire as you drive. If you frequently carry heavy weight you can check your approximate pressure without a tire guage if you make some preparation. At some moment when you vehicle is carrying nothing and has the correct pressure, measure the distance from the ground to the center of the wheel. Mark this on a wooden stick which you carry with you. Then, after you have loaded your vehicle, place the stick next to the tire and see if the center of the wheel falls below the mark on your stick. If so, add air to raise the centre to match the mark. When you remove the load and need to drive without weight, repeat this process but release air from the tire until the center of the wheel matches the mark on your stick. Heat, causes air to expand, thus, the pressure in your tire when it is hot is higher than when it is cold. This is why you may arrive home with your tires seemingly normal and see them looking deflated in the morning. This, gauge from AutoAnything.com, is one of the nicest of the new breed of easy-to-use Tire Gauges which I've seen around. For most cars the best guide is your vehicle's manual. Look on the driver's door post or the edge of the driver's door for a sticker which will give the recommended pressure for your car's tires. Another place to look is the inside of the Glove Compartment door for a sticker with recommended pressures. If both these places fail, try to locate your owner's manual and look up "tire pressure" in the index. Pay particular attention to whether the recommended pressure for tires is the same for the front and rear wheels. Depending on the design of the vehicle, there may be different tire pressures for front and back. Not following this may result in having difficulty in steering or swaying. Check your spare tire too! Always try to follow the manufacturer's recommendations unless you're prepared to have unexpected consequences, some of which can be dangerous. Since September 2007 all new vehicles sold in the USA have been required, by law, to be equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems that will alert the driver when tire pressure drops by 25% or more.

Fast-moving water making search difficult, Linn County Sheriff's Office says Emergency personnel search the Cedar River below the dam at Palisades-Kepler State Park for a man who witnesses said jumped off his rocking fishing boat after the boat got into the turbulent water below the dam at the park west of Mount Vernon, Iowa, on Sunday, July 7, 2019. The Mount Vernon Fire Department, Iowa DNR, the Lisbon Fire Department and the Linn County Sheriff's Office were observed at the scene. (Jim Slosiarek/The Gazette) CEDAR RAPIDS — The boater who went missing Sunday at Palisades-Kepler State Park near Mount Vernon is believed to be Ricky Lee Veenstra, 59, of Cedar Rapids, the Linn County Sheriff's Office said Monday. The sheriff's office said witnesses reported Veenstra went into the Cedar River from a boat just below the spillway and did not resurface. It is not clear whether Veenstra fell or jumped into the water. Witnesses told officials they saw the man jump from his rocking fishing boat into the turbulent water below the dam Sunday morning. However, information from the sheriff's office indicates the man fell from the boat. The sheriff's office and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources are continuing to search the area where Veenstra was last seen, but the "fast-moving water in that area is making the search very difficult," the sheriff's office said.

In an article published on May 25, 2016 in Science Translational Medicine, the researchers discuss how breast cancer cells are hunting for specific blood vessels that contain a molecule called E-selectin. (Ref.) This molecule exists in specific blood vessels in bone marrow and this is how cancer cells get there. Once they get there, they enter the tissue inside bones where are protected against therapies and usually lying dormant for years. This is how many years later, a patient can relapse. This is a process characteristic not only to breast cancer but other cancers as well. If the cancer is catch in early enough stage, inhibit E-selectin so that the cancer cells will not be able to find their way to bone marrow. However, this is a nice to have situation, but many cancers are diagnosed at a point when some cancer cells have already had the chance to migrate. The other idea scientist had, was to use Plerixafor, an agent used in human bone marrow donors to push stem cells into the bloodstream for harvesting. Plerixafor, was able to force dormant cancer cells out of the bone tissue into the bloodstream by inhibitiong the mechanism used by the cancer cells to anchor in the bone marrow (SDF-1/CXCR4 interaction anchors the cancer cells in bone marrow and Plerixafor is a CXCR4 inhibitor). Once the cancer cells are flushed back in to the blood stream they may be killed by the immune system or various therapies. I was specifically triggered by this finding as I already investigated and discussed Plerixafor in a previous post (Ref.) due to its other anti cancer action, i.e. the inhibition of M2-macrophages. Interestingly, an E-selectin inhibitor, that is easy accessible is Cimetidine (Ref.). Cimetidine is a well known over the counter drug, a histamine H₂ receptor antagonist that inhibits stomach acid production. It is very safe, cheap and accessible and as a result it is given by most cancer clinics in Germany to thir cancer patients, as a anti metastasis drug, at a daily dose of 800mg/day. I find Plerixafor a very relevant treatment to be applied just before and after effective anti cancer therapies, including chemo. Administered before the therapy will get the hidden cancer cells back into the blood stream and expose them to the therapy. Administered after the therapy will reduce the chance of tumors to regrow (since Plerixafor will inhibit M2-macrophages). CXCL12 signaling at CXCR4 is important in glioblastoma growth promotion as a migration-directing chemokine and as a mitosis-stimulating cytokine system. Recent developments in other areas of medicine may have made it now possible to comprehensively block glioblastoma's use of CXCL12 signaling. CXCL12 signaling at CXCR4 requires an active intermediate conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel to function. Plerixafor (AMD3100) is a new small molecular weight inhibitor of CXCR4, FDA approved to aid in stem cell mobilization. Inhibition of CXCR4 by plerixafor is expected to inhibit particularly the glioblastoma stem cell population by inhibiting that sub-population's homing to the protective hypoxic niche. Histamine signals through the H1 receptor in glioblastoma cells to activate the intermediate conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel also, thereby forming a potential bypass for inhibition of CXCR4-initiated signaling. The antidepressant mirtazapine is perhaps the most potent H1 antagonist in common clinical use. By inhibiting H1 stimulation of intermediate conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels, it could prevent circumvention of CXCR4 inhibition by that path. The anti-fungal clotrimazole directly inhibits the intermediate conductance Ca2+- activated K+ channel at clinically achievable and well-tolerated doses. These three drugs used simultaneously are potential low morbidity paths to deeply inhibit CXCR4/CXCL12 signaling during cytotoxic glioblastoma treatment. Ref. I was reading that Cimetidine prevents metastasis by inhibiting processes which allow cancer cells to stick together (adhesion), and thus to form tumours. I'm not 100% of the complete role of the protein, but CD56 is commonly expressed in various types of cancer cells, and is known as the Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule (NCAM) and normally aids in cell-to-cell adhesion. I haven't been able to find that much online about it but it is possible that cimetidine would work better in CD56+ tumours. This was the only thing I could find on the hypothesis. Thank You, Daniel, for Your kind response in other post!!! It is important that You get enough sleep ! The biopsy of my primary tumor 4 years ago showed high amount of hormon receptors (100% Estrogen, 80%Progesteron, 100% Androgen). I had Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy 6xTAC, followed by surgery, which showed only 30% of Estrogen. (I think these changes are due to chemotherapy). I performed profilactic ovariectomy (in order to stop estrogen production). After ovariectomy I took Tamoxifen for 1.5 years. In this time lytic bone lesson appeared in spine T7 and with compression fracture in spine T6 (we think it was fast and agressive growing and during Tamoxifen using). I had radiosurgery to those 2 spots in spine. 3 month later Pet scan showed all is clear. (Just now I realize that this Pet did not included femur, where now I have bone mets). Then I changed from Tamoxifen to Anastrozole, which is Aromathase inhibitor (as I understand it depleates Estrogens but can upping Androgens). During these 2 years after first bone mets and on Aromathase inhibitor new bone spots appeared in Femur and small part of old grew in spine T7, but the old lytic spot in spine T6 is silent with no activity. Should I use Cimetine as I had hormon receptors and I am now on Aromathase inhibitor? Or Maybe I can use Cimetidine on short periods? It must be my naturopathic training, but I admit I have had an aversion to Cimetidine because of the lowering of stomach acid which can impact nutrient absorption (B12, calcium and potentially other nutrients) and digestion (low stomach acid has been associated with SIBO and decreased pancreatic output). Now, looking into the timing of dosing, it appears that 800mg before bed did not impact daytime acid secretion. There are likely advantages to 400mg twice a day in terms of keeping a steady influence on the body, as always, advantages and disadvantages need to be weighed. It seems cimetidine/cancer studies have used both dosing administrations.
Haven't played Project Cars OH version for a while, now it crashes to desktop. I started the game and it crashes randomly, sometimes right when a race starts, and sometimes about 30 seconds into a race. Has anyone else experienced crashing in this game lately? I also just started using a Thrustmasters TMX wheel as well so I'm not sure if that can cause an issue with three sensors drawing all that power along with the wheel and in turn crashing the game? It crashes every time I play without fail. Any input is appreciated! Hey Licker1977 thanks for the reply. So rolling back my nvidia driver should fix the issue? You had success with this? I have the latest nvidia drivers currently and I have a 1080 FE. Thanks! Sweet. I will check it out when I get home today and report my findings. Thanks again dude! I rolled back my driver and no luck it still crashes as soon as it loads. Thanks for trying though man. I was trying to avoid a fresh reinstall on my computer but it looks like it might be time. Might be, or might not be related, but the Rift has been crashing for some of us a lot after the latest update. Thanks for the reply ELUNO11. That's a good point. Hopefully that is the case and they are working on it. I will hold off for a bit and see what plays out.

Hurricane Katia was a fairly intense Cape Verde hurricane that had substantial impact across Europe as a post-tropical cyclone. The eleventh named storm, second hurricane, and second major hurricane of the active 2011 Atlantic hurricane season, Katia originated as a tropical depression from a tropical wave over the eastern Atlantic on August 29. It intensified into a tropical storm the following day and further developed into a hurricane by September 1, although unfavorable atmospheric conditions hindered strengthening thereafter. As the storm began to recurve over the western Atlantic, a more hospitable regime allowed Katia to become a major hurricane by September 5 and peak as a Category 4 hurricane with winds of that afternoon. Internal core processes, increased wind shear, an impinging cold front, and increasingly cool ocean temperatures all prompted the cyclone to weaken almost immediately after peak, and Katia ultimately transitioned into an extratropical cyclone on September 10. Although Katia passed well north of the Lesser Antilles, a yellow alert was hoisted for Guadeloupe to notify residents of dangerous seas. Strong rip currents along the East Coast of the United States led to the deaths of two swimmers. After losing its tropical characteristics, Katia prompted the issuance of numerous warnings across Europe. Hurricane-force winds impacted numerous locations, downing trees, toppling power poles, and leaving thousands without electricity. The storm was responsible for two deaths in the United Kingdom: one when a tree fell on a vehicle in County Durham, and another during a multi-car accident on the M54 motorway resulting from adverse weather conditions. The post-tropical cyclone caused approximately £100m ($157 million, 2011 USD) in damage in the United Kingdom alone. Meteorological history On August 27, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) began monitoring a large mass of convection associated with a tropical wave just off the western coast of Africa. An area of low pressure formed in association with the disturbance the following day, gaining sufficient organization to be declared a tropical depression by 06:00 UTC on August 29 approximately southwest of the southernmost Cabo Verde Islands. The depression initially struggled upon designation, with its well-defined center displaced near the northeastern edge of the storm's convection as a result of strong east-northeasterly wind shear. By 00:00 UTC on August 30, however, an increase in the cyclone's convective organization marked its intensification into Tropical Storm Katia. Katia tracked west-northwestward for several days, steered by an expansive mid-level ridge to the cyclone's north. The strong upper-level winds that were affecting the cyclone gradually slackened, allowing for the expansion of a central dense overcast, the formation of a large curved band in the southern semicircle, and development of a banding eye on microwave imagery. Satellite intensity estimates increased accordingly, prompting the NHC to upgrade Katia to hurricane intensity at 00:00 UTC on September 1, while the storm was situated about east of the Leeward Islands. Although conditions were forecast to remain conducive for further intensification, water vapor satellite and microwave imagery indicated that mid-level dry air began eroding eyewall convection immediately after the storm's upgrade, and upper-level winds eventually became less favorable as Katia approached a sharp upper-level trough. As a result, the storm maintained its status as a minimal hurricane for almost three days, with only a partial eyewall or banding-eye feature appearing on satellite. Early on September 4, the hurricane moved beneath a large upper-level anticyclone which provided a reprieve from the strong southwesterly wind shear. Although its convective organization had yet to become fully symmetrical, an eye became increasingly apparent on infrared imagery. The center moved very near the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's buoy 41044—which registered a maximum sustained wind of and a maximum wind gust of —around 12:00 UTC, indicating that Katia had intensified into a Category 2 hurricane. Although an eyewall replacement cycle briefly caused the storm's convective pattern to deteriorate, Katia attained major hurricane status—a Category 3 or higher on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane wind scale—by 12:00 UTC on September 5. Twelve hours later, the cyclone further intensified into a Category 4 hurricane and attained peak winds of and a minimum barometric pressure of as its eye warmed, deep convection became much more symmetric about the center, and upper-level outflow expanded. Almost immediately after attaining peak intensity, Katia began to rapidly weaken as a second eyewall replacement cycle began; it was quickly stunted as dry air wrapped into the western portion of the circulation and northwesterly wind shear increased. The inner core process was completed by early on September 7, allowing Katia to level off in intensity as a Category 1 hurricane for several days. Increasing southwesterly flow resultant from an upper-level trough pushing eastward across the United States caused Katia to slow in forward motion and recurve northeast or east-northeast through September 9. The hurricane re-accelerated late that day, eventually bringing Katia over ocean temperatures near . Deep convection in association with the storm decreased and its circulation merged with a frontal system, indicating that Katia had completed transition into an extratropical cyclone by 12:00 UTC on September 10 while located about south-southeast of Cape Race, Newfoundland. Increasing baroclinic energy fueled the powerful extratropical low, which skirted the northern coast of Scotland on September 12, before being absorbed by a larger extratropical system over the North Sea on the following day. Preparations and impact Lesser Antilles and United States Although Katia passed well northeast of the Lesser Antilles, a yellow alert was hoisted in Guadeloupe for the potential of swells. Antigua and Barbuda recorded of rainfall between September 6 and September 7 from an outer band. On September 4, the NHC noted that large swells likely to cause life-threatening rip current conditions were expected to impact the East Coast of the United States over subsequent days. The increased surf resulted in the death of a swimmer in Ormond Beach, Florida the following day, and a second death off Monhegan, Maine on September 11. Europe After transitioning into a post-tropical cyclone, Katia moved quickly across the North Atlantic and toward Europe, prompting the Met Office to begin warnings citizens for potential impacts over subsequent days on September 9. Three days later, the organization raised a yellow severe weather alert for all of Ireland and most of the United Kingdom, with a more severe amber alert hoisted across Northern Ireland, northern England, and southern Scotland; both alerts warned of the potential for gale-force winds. Concurrently, Met Éireann outlined an extreme weather warning across Ireland, alerting residents to the potential for winds, downed trees, damaged buildings, and flooding. Irish ferries cancelled a number of its sails between Dublin and Holyhead. The Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute warned of gale-force winds along the coastline of Sweden, although a brunt of the rainfall was expected in neighboring Norway. A maximum wind gust of was recorded on Cairn Gorm, Scotland as Katia impacted the region, with a peak gust of observed at a non-mountain station in Capel Curig, Wales; these observations marked the strongest impact from a tropical cyclone since Hurricane Lili in 1996. Waves up to battered the western coastline of Ireland, and fallen power lines temporarily disrupted DART services. Approximately 4,000 households were left without power across the country. A catering marquee was blown into the air on a set for the television series Game of Thrones, causing one injury. In County Durham, United Kingdom, a man was killed after a tree fell on the minivan he was driving; the passenger sustained non-life-threatening injuries. A second driver was indirectly killed on the M54 motorway after hazardous weather caused a multi-car accident. Farther south in Bradford, an 11-year-old boy was injured after he was hit by a portion of a roof blown off a garage. Downed power poles set several fields on fire. The second stage of the Tour of Britain was forcefully canceled after strong winds littered the cycle route with debris. The remnants of Katia produced damage as far east as Russia. In St. Petersburg, wind gusts up to damaged buildings and left roughly 1,500 residents without power. In Estonia, the storm cut off power to approximately 940 households, particularly affecting the island of Hiiumaa and Harju County, with strong winds in coastal areas gusting up to .

Iowa State won 29-26 in a third overtime. (AP Photo/Matthew Putney) AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State quarterback Brock Purdy's eyes lit up when he saw a potential game-losing fumble floating aimlessly near the goal line. The sophomore sprang into action, snapping up Sheldon Croney Jr.'s triple-overtime miscue and saving the Cyclones from a devastating defeat — even by their standards. Croney Jr. scored from a yard out on the next play and 21st-ranked Iowa State rallied to edge past FCS school Northern Iowa 29-26 on Saturday. La'Michael Pettway had a pair of touchdown catches for the Cyclones (1-0), who barely survived a massive upset after entering the year ranked for the first time since 1978. Croney fumbled just shy of the end zone on the second-to-last play of the game. But Purdy saw the ball bounce out, and he sprinted from the backfield to recover it at the 1 in perhaps the biggest play of his impressive young career. "I saw who was underneath the pile, so I knew who would come up with it. Doesn't that tell you what he is about?" Iowa State coach Matt Campbell said about Purdy's heads-up play. "When I saw him there I thought we were going to be in great shape." For four quarters and nearly three extra sessions though, the last thing the Cyclones were in was great shape. Iowa State had to settle for a 23-yard field goal from Connor Assalley with 59 seconds left in the fourth quarter simply to force overtime. Purdy had a touchdown run called back because of holding before that kick. After the teams traded field goals in the first OT, Purdy found Pettway — a graduate transfer from Arkansas in his Iowa State debut — in the back of the end zone. But Northern Iowa pulled even at 23-all after freshman Will McElvain scrambled long enough to free up Trevor Allen for a 7-yard TD catch on a ball that travelled at least 40 yards. Iowa State forced Northern Iowa into a field goal to start triple overtime, and Purdy completed three straight passes to set up a hectic finish. "I don't know if the defense really saw it," Purdy said of his fumble recovery. "I had probably the best angle on it. It was pretty scary. I'm not going to lie." The Cyclones were the second ranked team to win an overtime game against an FCS opponent. Auburn held off Jacksonville State 27-20 in 2015. "That's why I love coaching in this game. It demands you being your best right out of the gate," Campbell said. McElvain finished with 228 yards passing and a touchdown in his collegiate debut. Purdy threw for 278 yards while completing 30 of 41 passes. Deshaunte Jones caught 14 balls, the second-most in school history, for 126 yards for Iowa State. Iowa State: Part of the Cyclones' struggles can be attributed to the fact that Northern Iowa isn't the least bit intimidated about driving about 100 miles southwest to play them. The Panthers even have three wins in Ames dating back to 2007. But Iowa State's offense, hurt by some questionable play calling, left a ton to be desired. The Cyclones also missed stars David Montgomery and Hakeem Butler perhaps more than anyone thought they would. Northern Iowa: McElvain, a freshman from nearby Des Moines who was offered a walk-on spot by the Cyclones, looks like he's got a bright future. His scramble to find Allen in double OT was one of the best plays of the young season. "Really talented guys who can run and escape, that's a challenge," Campbell said. "As the game wore on, I thought you saw his athletic ability come forward." CYHAWK COINCIDENCE? The last time a ranked team lost to an FCS school? That was three years ago when Iowa, the team Iowa State hosts in two weeks, fell to North Dakota State. But there's another connection to the rival Hawkeyes that the Cyclones can take solace in. In 2009, Iowa needed back-to-back blocked field goals to hold off these very same Panthers. That Hawkeyes team rallied to win the Orange Bowl that season. Iowa State's defense looked like it belonged on New Year's Day, but its offense at times looked like the first day of spring ball. RUNNING BACK ROULETTE Iowa State's muddled running back situation didn't get much closure in the opener. Johnnie Lang (14 carries for 60 yards) and freshman Breece Hall (11 for 47) shared the bulk of the carries until the fourth, when Croney was called upon. He found his stride, finishing with 56 yards on 13 attempts. It's very hard to imagine Iowa State maintaining its place in the Top 25 after that performance. "All that work and all that time came to that ball laying on the ground and it was who came up out of that scrum," Northern Iowa coach Mark Farley said. "It actually stopped for a second, and we all watched it sit there." Iowa State has next week off. The Cyclones host No. 20 Iowa on September 14. Northern Iowa: The Panthers host Southern Utah on September 7.
Hands-On Kids' Museums Make Learning Fun Immersion and interaction are the name of the game at children's museums around the country. NPR's Neda Ulaby visited WaterWays in San Jose and the Dinosphere in Indianapolis to see the next generation of kids' museums firsthand.

A Day At The Museum: A Century Of Museum Field Trips Bringing History To Life: The $25 million Dinosphere at the Children's Museum of Indianapolis features hands-on archaeological digs and one of the largest fossil displays in the United States. Courtesy of The Children's Museum of Indianapolis hide caption Courtesy of The Children's Museum of Indianapolis Bringing History To Life: The $25 million Dinosphere at the Children's Museum of Indianapolis features hands-on archaeological digs and one of the largest fossil displays in the United States. Ecstatic shrieks fill the WaterWays exhibition at the San Jose Children's Discovery Museum. The gray industrial room is crammed with troughs, pools, pipes, wheels and chutes. Water spurts and jets; it splashes over squealing children who hurl bright plastic balls into watery vortexes. While the children may be soaking up some of the basic principles of water pressure, they're also joyously dipping their germy little hands into the exhibit itself. Some kids even lap at the water like puppies. But parents can rest assured — 850 gallons of water circulate through WaterWays' two filtration systems every five minutes. One of them catches any material larger than 1 micron, and the other combines two ozone and bromine sanitation systems to guarantee the highest water quality. Kids love water, but this exhibit is particularly meaningful to children in a drought state. "Kids in California don't get exposed to the rain very much," says Marilee Jennings, executive director of the museum. She says it's thrilling for these kids to sit under a Plexiglas shell and gaze up into a simulated rainstorm. Immersion and interaction are the two words you'll hear over and over, when talking tech with children's museum experts. The Children's Museum of Indianapolis is the biggest — and arguably the best — children's museum in the world. At 450,000 square feet and five stories high, the museum attracts more than 1 million visitors a year. Many come specifically for Dinosphere; the $25 million dinosaur exhibit began as an IMAX-style theater, but when similar theaters opened nearby, museum officials decided to "recycle" theirs into a sort of fancy dinosaur terrarium. The high-tech, large-format domed screen makes it possible for clouds and great winged pteranodons to float across a sky that darkens into storms. Scent pods waft forth faint aromas of pine, magnolia and — brace yourself — sweaty elephant. (That smell, after all, would be nectar to a hungry Tyrannosaurus rex.) The ancient lizard king is well-represented here. The Dinosphere centerpiece showcases a pair of toothily grinning Tyrannosaurus skeletons menacing a fiercely snapping triceratops. They're all composed mostly of real fossilized bones, the color of dark coffee or good chocolate. Dramatic Las Vegas-style lighting and sound help deliciously tingle the spines of any self-respecting 9-year-old. But littler kids can get anxious here. So a grotto just by the exhibit entrance offers a safe play space, with dinosaur costumes with soft cotton dinosaur eggs, so little kids can work up their courage before venturing into the exhibition proper. Soon, they're running around and roaring with the big kids. The games and immersive activities here are designed to capture kids' interest and imagination, but also keep them moving, Durability is an enormous issue. Exhibit designers often filch materials made to be used in factories — they can hold up to the loving pounding and thwacking of children. The Dinosphere also contains a working paleontology lab and a life-size excavation pit, where kids dig a realistic dinosaur skeleton out of specially composted sandy material, trademarked by the museum. All of this qualifies as "slow technology," or technology that's created to support play, rather than being the main focus. Children's museums try to integrate low and high technology to keep kids interested in the exhibition's concepts. A public library kiosk in Dinosphere lets kids from anywhere in Indiana check out library books and send them back through the state's interlibrary loan system. Cathy Hamaker, an exhibit developer at the museum, says that for an exhibit about castles and catapults, she even took the Wii gaming system as inspiration: "We were originally going to have them throw things at real castle walls, but then we thought, 'Eh, it's gonna end up with little brother getting put in the catapult,' " Hamaker says. Museum directors know that kids see enough screens, but they also know that kids are attracted to them. The trick for exhibit designers is combining familiar technology with activities that capture a child's curiosity in new ways. "Technology is a controversy, I think, in children's museums," says Jennings of the San Jose museum. "Part of what we aspire to is to get kids away from the screens."

On that special day, have some convivial conversation or, better yet, start a spirited argument with these choice tidbits of information. Some "True" History Not everyone knows the story of the Texan who went to Ireland to challenge the best drinkers of the day, so I'll recap it for you. On a trip to Ireland, the Texan enters the most famous pub in Dublin and lays down a challenge. He can drink twenty pints of Guinness in an hour and he'd like to see someone beat that record. He will go pint for pint against any man in the house. If someone can beat him, he says, he will acknowledge that the beer drinkers of Ireland are superior to those of Texas. He watches with amusement as most of the Irishmen stay quiet. He even notices one lad with a particularly distinctive cap slip out the back door. An hour later, the Texan is almost ready to give up and claim the title for himself when he feels a tug at his elbow. It's the boyo with the cap who left out the back door. "I'll take your challenge," says the Irishman, " and I'll beat you too." The Texan looks him up and down and answers, "No problem. We're on, but first answer a question from me. Why did you leave out the back door when I first made the challenge?" The Irishman looks back, takes a sip of his Guinness and replies, "Well, I thought it might be difficult to best your record, so I just slipped next door to Clancy's to make sure I could do it." Credit: Sebb The Situation Today Guinness is, beyond a doubt, the most popular beer in the South of Ireland. In fact, there is very little in the way of home brewing of even microbreweries. If you walk into an Irish pub in the South, you are sure find Guinness and your health will be toasted with the Gaelic word, "Slainte." To be sure, this is the fact in the South of Ireland. In the still divided North, while you will find Guinees in pubs that cater to a Catholic clientele, it is unknown in pubs that serve Protestant drinkers. In fact, entering a "Protestant" pub, buying a beer and saying "Slainte' is grounds for being thrown out or worse. The drinkers in those pubs are staunchly pro-English and one, instead, should say "Cheers." Credit: Public DomainYour Man - Arthur Guinness It is an unfortunate situation that the Irish in the north and South will not reconcile with each other but the history of Guinness brings has another bizarre twist. Arthur Guinness was a member of the Anglican Church, that is, he was a Protestant. He despised the Catholic religion, through and through, and the company he started embodied that sentiment completely. Though all of the beer was initially brewed in Ireland, its headquarters is still in London, England. In addition, until the mid-twentieth century, any brewer who intended to marry a Catholic was "asked" to resign. Mr. Guinness, himself, was, until his death, an unrepentant Irish Unionist which meant that he favored English sovereignty over the country of Ireland. There is no word on whether he changed his mind afterwards. Though much of this is ancient history, it is still interesting to note that in mans quest for the best beer, no amount of aggravation or animosity is insurmountable. Just some thoughts to ponder as you have those wonderful pints on Saint Patrick's Day. 9 Natural Sweeteners You can Use instead of Refined Sugar

Jul 1, 2020 4 min read Newsletter 🇮🇳🇨🇳The splinternet: Indian TikTok edition. What should we make of this? I prepared this analysis for members today, but I'm sharing it with all my readers because I know that many are scratching their heads trying to understand what's going on. If you'd like to receive insight on the near future every week, join the community. Two weeks ago, Indian and Chinese soldiers faced off like stone-age warriors. Clubs, spikes, fists, 13,500ft up in Ladakh, brutalising each other in this firearm free zone. This week, the battle between the two nuclear-armed powers moved to another arena: the digital market. India banned 59 Chinese apps, including TikTok and WeChat. TikTok has more than 200 million users in India, and it may be TikTok's biggest market. Some Indian TikTokers have millions of followers, charging thousands of dollars to post clips. Startups like EduTok have been built on the platform. In a statement, India's Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology said: The compilation of […] data, its mining and profiling by elements hostile to national security and defense of India, which ultimately impinges upon the sovereignty and integrity of India, is a matter of very deep and immediate concern which requires emergency measures. The ban will be enforced by India's internet service providers, who will be instructed by the government to block these apps. The Indian government may also be assessing Huawei and ZTE's participation in the nation's 5G networks. The ban on these 59 apps isn't the first time the India government has weighed in on these questions. Data localization has been going on in India for a few years, requiring companies to store critical user data in India. (See my essay on our spiky fragmented world.) In 2018, India took action against large foreign e-commerce platforms, preventing marketplaces from offering exclusive products, and influencing the sale price of goods and services. See EV#198 for more. The nationalist sentiment is an important part of Indian technology identity. As I wrote in EV#182 in 2018, India pushes back against the large tech platforms: For some Indian political leaders, it is as if their nation […] is being conquered by colonial powers all over again. This feeling, together with a nationalist government, may be behind the heavy hand of some of India's interventions. Says EV reader, Dev Lewis: The Indian government thinks about governing the internet in a very similar way to China, which is blanket bans, asserting national boundaries on the internet and essentially carving out what would eventually become a version of the Indian Great Firewall. For companies, navigating this terrain is complicated. India is a massively attractive market. Only a quarter of India's 1.4 billion people has a smartphone. It is already a huge market and only going to get bigger. The Indian startup scene is booming. More than $14 billion went into India's startups in 2019. Local venture capital is booming. ISP, Reliance Jio, raised more than £15 billion from Facebook, Silverlake, KKR and others. Phone manufacturer, Foxconn, now has 30,000 employees in India churning out lower-end iPhones. An ecosystem of subcontractors and suppliers has moved with them. Bytedance, TikTok's parent, hasn't received the same warm welcome. The company has made some efforts to localise its operations. As the WSJ points out here: Bytedance said its roughly 2,000 employees in India are "committed to working with the government to demonstrate our dedication to user security and our commitment to the country overall." Empowering local management teams in countries including India has been crucial to the company's success world-wide [according to the company.] But this wasn't enough. National sovereignty matters. It is through national laws that this ban will be enforced. The Internet as an independently regulated cyberspace is rapidly becoming a thing of the past. India has demonstrated that it will seek to intervene to further its national interests. Yes, the ban on 59 Chinese apps can be seen through the lens of Sino-Indian competition. But the Indian government had previously made life harder for American retailers, Amazon and Walmart. Global decoupling is not just a gruelling sparring session between China and America. Rather it reflects a series of different pressures, some security-driven, some economic, but all about sovereignty in the face of technology change, that we are seeing expressed by the UK, EU and, of course, India. Technological decoupling is less bloody and brutal than fighting with spikes and metal clubs high up in the Himalayas, but it will have very deep ramifications. To dig deeper, listen to my discussion with Parag Khanna on the geopolitics of technology from an Asian lens and revisit my essay on our spiky, fragmented world. Photo by Kon Karampelas on Unsplash
A recent press release from Penn Medicine states that researchers have discovered a way to grow human stem cells destined to become mature sperm in an effort to provide fertility options later in life to males who are diagnosed with cancer and undergo chemotherapy and radiation as children. The findings were published in Nature Communications from a team lead by Sandra Ryeom, PhD, an associate professor of Cancer Biology in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and co-leader of the Tumor Biology Program at the Abramson Cancer Center. "We have never had any fertility preservation options for prepubescent boys," said study co-author Jill Ginsberg, MD, a paediatric oncologist and director of the Cancer Survivorship Program at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. "The findings in this work are a great first step forward for our youngest patients," she said. Researchers have known that the production of sperm could be restored in mice that were sterilized after treatment with the chemotherapeutic agent busulfan by injecting immature sperm cells from a donor into their seminiferous tubules—located in the testes. From this, oncologists suggested that SSCs might be harvested from boys before the start of chemotherapy and reintroduced into their testes when treatment was complete. However, the testes of prepubescent boys contain such a small number of SSCs that, in order for this approach to be successful, the cells would need to be grown and multiplied in the lab prior to subsequent reinjection. Transplanting testicular endothelial cells (but not lung endothelial cells) into the testes of mice after destruction of sperm due to treatment with the chemotherapy drug busulfan restores developing sperm. Photo credit: Dong-Ha Bhang, Penn Medicine: Nature Communications. Mouse cells in long-term culture restored the ability of mice after chemotherapy-induced infertility to produce sperm. Ultimately, the SSCs were functional as demonstrated by the birth of live pups after being fathered by mice with the transplanted SSCs and growth factors. The study was supported in part by the National Cancer Institute (T32 CA009140, R01 CA118374), the St. Baldrick's Foundation, The Garrett B. Smith Foundation, and the TedDriven Foundation. Penn Medicine is one of the world's leading academic medical centres, dedicated to the related missions of medical education, biomedical research, and excellence in patient care. Penn Medicine consists of the Raymond and Ruth Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania (founded in 1765 as America's first medical school) and the University of Pennsylvania Health System, which together form a $7.8 billion enterprise.
E1 of 6 Series 8 - Episode 1 Winterfell After eight years, 67 episodes and thousands of grisly deaths, Game of Thrones all comes down to this — six extra-long final episodes where we'll find out whether the remaining characters can fight off the undead army marching from the North, or whether we'll be saying goodbye to them like we did Sean Bean, Richard Madden and countless other cast members before. Before all that, though, there's plenty of interpersonal drama to keep the high and mighty of Westeros busy as Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) receive a slightly frosty welcome at Winterfell, and Sam (John Bradley) struggles with the gobsmacking secret he has to reveal to his best friend. Don't expect too much big-budget action in this episode — apparently, the series' feature-length third episode will feature Thrones' biggest and most impressive battle yet, and that's a couple of weeks off — but with the end in sight, there probably won't be much wasted time, either, as the Starks gather their allies for the final battle. Winter is here, at last. The fantasy drama based on George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series of novels returns for its eighth and final season. The Wall, which has protected the Seven Kingdoms for 8,000 years, has fallen, and the Night King's army of the dead marches towards Westeros. Meanwhile in Winterfell, Jon and Daenerys arrive, and the Stark children are reunited. Starring Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington and Peter Dinklage.

Don't skip this article T-Mobile subscribers, this is one of the best deals I have come across for quite some time. T-Mobile has discounted the very capable and well-regarded LG V20 to just $360, down from $769. We were excited about this phone going on sale for $500 just a couple of days ago, and this is a way better deal! On top of a killer price, LG has a separate promotion running for people who purchase an LG V20 (or G5) through T-Mobile. Buy one, and submit your receipt through their promotion website and they'll mail you a free 720p LG MiniBeam portable projector which sells for $350 on Amazon. Now for some important notes. The projector promotion has been running since February 10th, and today is its last day. If you want to cash in on the freebie you must purchase the V20 today, receipts with a later date will not qualify. At the risk of sounding like a used car salesman, I'm going to shout at you, act NOW! The only other stipulation that you need to be aware of is that the phone must be purchased on a T-Mobile plan, you can't just buy it outright. The projector is legitimately a sweet device, with a 720p output capable of casting up to a 100 inch screen. It has a built-in battery for up to 2.5 hours of cord-free viewing, HDMI input, and audio out via Bluetooth. With only 130 lumens of light output it won't be much good in daylight, but it should work great in a dark environment. My wife has needed to replace her ailing Sony Z3 for several months, and I've been looking for the right deal to pop up to lure me into a purchase. This is the one I've been waiting for. I'm hopping on this promotion as soon as I finish typing the article, and I imagine a lot of you will be too. To take advantage of the offer, head over to T-Mobile to buy the V20 today. Then, after your phone arrives, go to LG's T-Mobile promotion website to fill out the offer redemption form before March 22nd. In about six weeks they'll mail you your free projector.
Q: How to install and start MySQL 5.7 on macOS BigSur (Apple Silicon) with Homebrew? I need a specific version of MySQL (5.7) to be installed on my MacBook with M1. I'm trying to do that with Homebrew. brew install [email protected] The output: We've installed your MySQL database without a root password. To secure it run: mysql_secure_installation MySQL is configured to only allow connections from localhost by default To connect run: mysql -uroot [email protected] is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /opt/homebrew, because this is an alternate version of another formula. If you need to have [email protected] first in your PATH, run: echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc For compilers to find [email protected] you may need to set: export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/lib" export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/include" To have launchd start [email protected] now and restart at login: brew services start [email protected] Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run: /opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/bin/mysql.server start Right after that, I try to run: echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc source .zshrc mysql_secure_installation And get the error: Securing the MySQL server deployment. Enter password for user root: Error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) Also, I've tried: brew services start [email protected] And also get the error: Error: Permission denied @ rb_sysopen - /Users/vivanc/Library/LaunchAgents/[email protected] Seems like there is a permissions-related problem. Any advice is appreciated. A: I solved it after hours of searching, it was because I had not cleaned everything regarding my previous MySQL 8.X installation. I followed this and got suspicious when I realized I don't have most of the folders there. I then did a search for all folders named mysql on my computer and found a mysql folder in opt/homebrew/var. After removing it, reinstalling MySQL 5.7, and starting the server everything is working as expected. A: When setting up my Apple M1 Macbook Pro I was experiencing the issue of the following error message being thrown: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) My fix was to modify the MySQL config file: nano /usr/local/etc/my.cnf Append the following lines: tmpdir=/tmp user=root Then run: brew services restart [email protected] This fixed my issue, and I was then able to connect successfully with my DB client. A: If you are running into issues like "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'" or "The post-install step did not complete successfully MySQL", and you installed a previous version of mysql (e.g. 8.x) previously, you may have been at the point where you need to clean everything before reinstalling your preferred version of [email protected]. If you've already visited these to links: Uninstall all those broken versions of MySQL and re-install it with Brew on Mac Mavericks (Coderwall) + Install MySQL 5.7 on macOS using Homebrew (github) and your're still having trouble with starting your mysql-service, you should try to also remove also /opt/homebrew/etc/my.cnf file. Remove it together with all the related files too! Summary for an M1 Apple Silcion machine, after uninstalling via brew uninstall mysql or brew uninstall [email protected], please remove: /opt/homebrew/var/mysql /opt/homebrew/etc/my.cnf After this, everything worked like a fresh install (for me). Hope this saved someone's time. A: While this question is specific to Apple Silicon and mysql 5.7, and I will address that in this answer, I would like to start by adding some general notes to save others time: Homebrew supports mysql 5.7 for both intel and apple silicon. https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/[email protected] Homebrew supports mysql 5.6 for the intel chip, but not apple silicon: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/[email protected] If you need 5.6 on apple silicon, it's probably a good idea to just settle with 5.7 since production will need to be upgraded eventually and the differences aren't that big. In my situation I originally did brew install mysql and it gave me the latest mysql (currently 8.0). When I tried going back over it and doing brew install [email protected], of course this didn't work due to not being supported on the m1 max (apple silicon). I ran into issues then trying to get brew install [email protected] working. I followed some guides mentioning various suggestions. After playing with it for a while, it seems that running two versions of mysql at once will corrupt your mysql files and make it hard to work with and confuse homebrew. I came across these guides: brew install mysql on macOS https://coderwall.com/p/os6woq/uninstall-all-those-broken-versions-of-mysql-and-re-install-it-with-brew-on-mac-mavericks https://www.codegrepper.com/code-examples/shell/brew+uninstall+mysql Before reading further, note that in my situation, I had a zip available for my whole local mysql database needs and could risk destroying what I have. Warning! Reading further and executing these commands carelessly may delete your mysql storage. Make sure you have a backup. brew remove mysql is a good command that got rid of my latest install. I also needed brew remove [email protected] even though this is the version I'm trying to install, but they were stepping on each other's foot... brew cleanup is nice, I noticed it freed up some lock files. I don't recall having any luck with: launchctl unload -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist but you can try it. rm ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist has worked for me. But note there will also be another file in there for your 5.7 setup. I'd recommend: cd ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ then look around to see if you have any mysql* in there. Then if you do, such as [email protected], then remove it. These are some that worked for me: sudo rm -rf /usr/local/var/mysql rm /usr/local/etc/my.cnf rm /usr/local/etc/my.cnf.default Also: cd opt/homebrew/var Then if you notice a mysql directory in there, remove it. It's possible you might have docker or something else similar also running mysql or mysqld. ps -ax | grep "[m]ysql" (Note the brackets and quotes in the above is to prevent the grep from showing up in the process list and matching itself unlike the lazier version: ps -ax | grep mysql which will give the impression there's an extra mysql process running) Once you're ready, please run: brew services list double-check you don't have mysql in there. Then double check you don't have any mysql process running: ps -ax | grep "[m]ysql" This can happen for example if you enter mysqld for example.... You might need to do brew services stop mysql or brew services stop [email protected] or similar and repeat steps if you see anything on the service list or process list. Finally, you should be ready for a fresh install. The fresh installation process should be rather straight forward: brew install [email protected] brew link --force [email protected] brew services start [email protected] Then run brew services list to make sure your installation worked correctly. If you see it's green and "started", your installation was successful! You should also run: mysql_secure_installation Then choose a password for root and go through the list of questions like validation, etc. Once you're installed, you might also run into mysql mode issues. cd /opt/homebrew/etc and you should find a my.cnf file. Edit it using either vim or nano. You should see something like: # Default Homebrew MySQL server config [mysqld] # Only allow connections from localhost bind-address = 127.0.0.1 Edit it and set the mysql mode. For example, I don't want the no_zero_in_date mode, so I use: # Default Homebrew MySQL server config [mysqld] # Only allow connections from localhost bind-address = 127.0.0.1 sql-mode="ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY,STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION" Then restart mysql like so: brew services restart [email protected] Then double check you still have a green status "started": brew services list If you do, then you should have the no_zero_in_date mode disabled. You can test it with a query: SELECT @@sql_mode; You should now have mysql 5.7 running on Apple Silicon and have the sql_mode set. If you run into more troubleshooting, do your best to get into a known state such as uninstalled, doing a fresh install, or already installed with some version, etc. A: Seems like I found the solution (or workaround). After installing the MySQL 5.7 with Homebrew just run: mysql.server start MySQL is started and then you are able to run mysql_secure_installation and mysql commands. A: I got this warning: You should change the ownership of these directories to your user. sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/share/doc /usr/local/share/man /usr/local/share/man/man1 And make sure that your user has write permission. chmod u+w /usr/local/share/doc /usr/local/share/man /usr/local/share/man/man1 I run those two command then it works.
