Let’s cut to the chase and I’ll tell you what I like about today’s opening round in Honolulu for the Sony Open. There is 0% chance of rain. Wind will be steady all day from about 6-9mph with no big gusts. That’s a pretty mild day, and won’t really impact the golfers at all from a betting perspective. Typically, we see a lot of FRL’s come from the morning wave on the PGA Tour because wind usually picks up as the day progresses, and the guys out early get the purest putting surfaces of the day when they haven’t been pelted with incoming piss missiles or walked all over.
But, I like a slightly different approach this morning for the Sony Open because of 1 factor (since wind and rain won’t play a role at all today)…Temperature! The golf ball flies further in warmer air than colder air. That’s a fact. Look it up or ask Bryson. Not that Waialae really requires a ton of distance, but every little bit helps in this game where 1 break or 1 disaster can affect your round immensely. The guys going off from 7am – 9am will get started in temps around 70º – 75º. The temp will be climbing all morning up until noon when the high reaches around 84º. The 10º difference could add another few yards of carry to every shot throughout a round and that’s enough to provide an edge.
I’ve got 4 FRL plays for today as a result. I want long shots, so remember…I’m more likely to only hit a handful of these throughout the year. But, when you do…you hit big. It’s like a poor man’s parlay bet. I’m picking these guys based on the tee time and weather factor I just cited above. I’m picking them obviously due to their odds on MyBookie. And, I’m picking them because they’ve proven they can go low at Waialae, or they’ve just proven they can go low absolutely anywhere. I love aggressive players for FRL bets, and I’ve found a couple here at the Sony Open.
Chez Reavie (66/1) – The Chezticle has a tremendous record here. He’s chosen to start his season at Waialae the last 4 years, and he’s gained 23 strokes on the field in that span. He tees off at noon. Chez likey the track!
James Hahn (80/1) – James found himself in the playoff here last year that lasted 6 holes when he lost to Kizzire. He likes the track. He loves the West Coast swing! He’s gained 26 strokes here in the last 5 years. Now, he tees off at 7am. That goes against what I said earlier, but I liked the 80/1 number and his performance last season. He’s the first group off, so while he won’t have the higher temp to his advantage, he will have a fresh set of 18 greens awaiting his arrival.
Keith Mitchell (100/1) – Keith tees off at 11:50am. Keith played here last year for the first time and finished T25, which is pretty rare for a first timer. Keith just runs hot. He makes a ton of birdies and eagles, and he plays aggressively. As long as he’s 80/1 or longer for FRL’s this season, he’s in play.
Cam Davis (110/1) – Cam is a big hitting Web.com graduate that tees off at 8:40am today. He was 2nd on the Web.com Tour last season in Birdie Average and 7th in Greens in Regulation. He’s a lot like Keith Mitchell. Runs hot. Stays aggressive. Let’s Go!

Marie Kondo, the tidying expert from Japan–whose self-proclaimed purpose in life is sparking joy and spreading serenity–has sold millions of books on organization and now has a popular series on Netflix (warning: it’s a tearjerker). Her Zenspired principles of keeping house are clearly resonating with the masses.
I’m not going to lie, I started reading “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up” a while back and had a mini panic attack eight pages in: I’m not a hoarder, but I like stuff. Okay, I like lots of stuff. Stuff makes me feel happy and safe. Not to mention, I have a five-year-old who also likes stuff, so keeping a strictly organized and less-is-more home just isn’t going to happen any time in the foreseeable future. That said, I did skim the remainder of the book and walked away with a handful of helpful practices that I’ve applied to both my personal life (mostly closets and drawers) and my business, April May June, which recently underwent a website and content overhaul. My old website soooo did not spark joy (more on that later), and along with creating a new one, I also underwent a ruthless content hygiene mission.
What’s content hygiene, you ask?
If your content is feeling underwhelming, cumbersome, outdated, or unfocused, it’s probably time for a mindful edit. Here are some principles of the KonMari Method™ that I’ve adapted to help set you on the path to refining, refocusing, and revitalizing it.
Okay, this may seem a bit swirly out of the gate…but Kondo believes in taking a little time to greet your home and give it thanks each day. Ever think of doing that for your business?
Consider the fulfillment, customers, opportunities, and money it has provided you with. Imagine what the future of your business will look and feel like.
Taking a few minutes to give gratitude each morning (or any time, really) will help you manifest that future.
While you’re at it, carve out some time to think about the year ahead. Ask yourself what your business goals are for the next twelve months, and how content can support those goals.
Having a clear vision will help you develop the kind of strategic and inspired content that will drive your business’ path to success. Without a mindful approach, you could waste serious time and resources.
The process of tidying content (another way to say content hygiene) gives you the opportunity to evaluate all your content across every platform and media: blog, social media, website, newsletter, video, LinkedIn article, etc. Does existing content align with your current brand and business goals? Is it still relevant? Do your audiences care about it (are they liking/commenting/sharing it is one valuable metric)? How’s the writing quality? Is it search-optimized enough–or too much? Can any of it be salvaged, updated, and re-used?
Once you’re all in on tidying your content, be ruthless about killing (I mean, gently removing) that which just isn’t up to snuff. SEO best practices would have you believe more content is better. But quality trumps quantity every time in my book. Don’t be afraid to delete sub-par content and replace it with the new and fresh. Or do a heavy edit and republish. Update the headline. Break a long-format blog into 2-3 microblogs that each tackle a single insight.
You are the very first audience for your content. If it puts a smile on your face, makes you beam with pride or chuckle to yourself, or leaves you with a sense of accomplishment, then that’s a good indicator your audience will dig it, too. On the other hand, if it leaves you a bit meh, it’s time to reconsider the topic, form, approach, voice, and/or execution.
While I roll my eyes at the very idea of holding a sweater and asking myself if it sparks joy (ugh, just did it again!), there are some clear lessons to be learned from Marie Kondo’s KonMari Method™. If you take some time to reflect, consider, and plan, you’ll be well on your way to more purposeful and successful content.
If your business needs handholding through a purposeful content overhaul, contact AMJ.

text: Permanent grassland is a valuable source of valuable natural raw material for production of fodders. The fodder value of sward depends on the grass yield volume, agricultural value (UVN), content of minerals, etc. The present paper discusses the results of a study conducted in 2009-2011, on permanent grassland situated in the valley of the Por River. Samples of the plant material were taken before the first cut from selected, representative areas. They were used to assess, with basic analytical and statistical methods, the yielding, agricultural value (UVN) and chemical composition of hay. The content of P, K, Ca and Mg was determined in the dry weight of the sward by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (FAAS), while the total content of N was established by the Kjeldahl’s method. For easier interpretation of the results, the classified syntaxons (Matuszkiewicz 2006) were ranked into higher syntaxonomic units. The present research showed a fairly good content of P, Mg and Ca in the analyzed dry weight of plants, enough to satisfy the nutritional demand of ruminants. However, the total content of N and K in the plant samples was insufficient. The agricultural value (UVN) of the dry weight of plants and the yield volume of the examined phytocenoses were varied, which was statistically verified. The high value of variability coefficients also testifies to the considerable differentiation of all the analyzed features within particular syntaxonomic units.

Sometimes the most simple food is the best food. I think that especially holds true in the summer! It is hot, nobody wants to turn on their oven, and I want light dishes filled with veggies and fruit from the farmer's market. I mean, I'd like to eat that way all year, but not much grows in Colorado from about November to May.
This light, lemony soup is the perfect summer lunch. Since it's cooked in the Instant Pot, you don't even have to heat up your kitchen. Winning. And it's made from just a handful of basic ingredients.
A yolky, poached or fried egg on soup may seem weird, but you've GOT to try it. It's a total game changer, and it adds a bit of protein and fat to your meal to hold you over a little longer. I topped it off with a few pinches of my favorite red pepper flakes, but if you want to bulk it up a bit more you could add a sprinkle of bacon. I won't tell. I mean, I think that sounds like a wonderful idea.
Also, if you haven't tried breakfast soup yet, you should. If you top this soup with an egg and some bacon, it's the perfect candidate for breakfast soup. Talk about starting your day off with a bang! However you choose to eat this, you're gonna love it.
Turn on the Sauté function on the Instant Pot, and add the ghee to the pot.
Cut the dark green part off the leek and wash the remainder very well. Slice it and add it to the ghee in the IP. Sauté until it begins to brown.
Wash and roughly chop the asparagus and potato (peeled).
Once the leek has begun to brown, hit the Cancel button. Add the potato, asparagus, and broth to the pot.
Put the lid on the IP and make sure it is set to Sealing. Then set it to Manual, and hit the (-) button until it is set to 4 minutes.
Once the IP has finished cooking, hit cancel and then carefully switch it from sealing to venting until all pressure is released.
Remove the lid of the pot and insert an immersion blender. Blend until the soup is creamy and smooth.
Alternatively you can carefully pour the soup into a blender, being sure to let it cool a bit first. Vent the lid during blending or you'll have an extremely hot explosion!!
Taste the soup for seasoning. It is likely to taste bland, especially if you used reduced sodium or homemade broth. Add salt and pepper to taste (I added about 1t salt) and then stir in the juice of 1 lemon.
Briefly blend the soup again to incorporate the seasonings and lemon juice.
Ladle the soup into bowls, and top each bowl with a cooked egg and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
If you make a big bowl of this summer soup, snap a photo for Instagram, and tag me! I love seeing what you cook. Or, you can Pin the picture below to make this another time.

OK, these are by definition 79 of the most boring people in the world.
Ill just stick to my RSS feed of TheReg rather than feed of just the hardware via a third party site, thanks anyway!
Followed the feed briefly but if all you're going to do is just tweet new page headlines then RSS is a better way of getting updates, it's just clutter on the Twitter page.
I'd suggest either have someone responding to questions/comments about the reviews or adding extra content, otherwise it's not worth you bothering with.

In positive news for low-income students, the comprehensive funding deal reached in Congress last night made college affordability a priority. The biggest news is that the maximum Pell Grant award for the 2018-19 academic year will be $6,095. Congress also provided a 10-percent funding increase for Federal Work-Study and the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) and included language for a technical change to allow scholarship providers access to FAFSA information, which NCAN advocated for.
While the bill does address many issues not related to appropriations, Congress unfortunately could not reach an agreement to provide a permanent solution for DREAMers. Individuals in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program can continue to renew their DACA status as the courts decide the program’s fate. DREAMers not currently enrolled in DACA must still wait for Congress to act. NCAN supports the Dream Act of 2017 and will continue to advocate for Congress to provide a pathway to citizenship for DREAMers.
The maximum Pell Grant award is increased by $175 or 3 percent to $6,095 for the upcoming academic year, and the commitment to year-round Pell grants remains.
Overall dollars available to institutions for Federal Work-Study ($1.1 billion, an increase of $140 million) and the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant ($840 million, an increase of $107 million) rose by 10 percent.
TRIO programs received a $60 million increase for a total of $1.01 billion.
GEAR UP received a $10 million increase for a total of $350 million.
Public Service Loan Forgiveness is temporarily expanded to individuals who would have otherwise been eligible for the program but were not enrolled in a qualifying repayment program. The eligibility expires when the appropriated funds for this expansion ($350 million) are exhausted.
The Corporation for National and Community Service, which includes AmeriCorps, received $1.1 billion in funding.
Additionally, NASFAA, NCAN and several of our members – including the ACCESS College Foundation, College Success Foundation, Southern California College Access Network, Higher Heights Youth Empowerment Programs, EducationQuest Foundation, and College Now Greater Cleveland – all advocated for a technical change to Higher Education Act language that would allow college access programs to access FAFSA data from higher education institutions when a student signs a waiver release form. While this was accepted practice in the past, the U.S. Department of Education advised in the fall that this was no longer permissible. The omnibus included this technical change to allow scholarship providers to access this information when a student signs a waiver; however, college access programs that do not provide scholarships while still using FAFSA data to advise on financial aid packages will no longer be able to access the data. NCAN will continue to advocate for the broader inclusion of college access programs in the HEA reauthorization.
In addition to advocating for this technical change, NCAN and our members including The Institute for College Access & Success (TICAS) also urged Congress to raise the maximum Pell Grant in this round of government funding. An increase of 3 percent matches the average increase in the cost of attendance at a four-year public university over the last five academic years. However, as Congress continues the longer conversation about reauthorization of the Higher Education Act, there is still much work to be done to address affordability for low-income students who desire higher education, particularly those choosing the four-year path.

Qualcomm Technologies and Ford Motor Company are working together for the development of advanced connectivity systems for Ford vehicles and testing Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology.
Qualcomm Technologies’ first C-V2X commercial solution, the Qualcomm 9150 C-V2X chipset, is expected to be commercially available the second half of 2018. Depending on the results of those field validations, and a change to the current regulatory environment, this technology may be featured in vehicles in the near future. Ford and Qualcomm Technologies are currently working together on the first announced U.S. C-V2X trials in San Diego, along with additional trials in Detroit, with both trials utilizing the 9150 C-V2X solution.
Ford and Qualcomm Technologies plan to work on next-generation telematics concepts and solutions featuring C-V2X technology. At present, as a part of the ongoing relationship, the companies are working on automotive telematics platforms with integrated Qualcomm Snapdragon LTE modems to provide the fast, reliable and efficient connectivity needed for telematics applications, connected navigation and infotainment systems.
Qualcomm Technologies is demonstrating C-V2X technology at the Qualcomm Technologies’ automotive booth during CES 2018.

You make a contribution of your property to fund a trust that pays The ACU Foundation income for a number of years.
Zero Tax Plan - It is even possible to set up a lead trust that will allow you to transfer assets to your family with zero transfer taxes. The IRS assumes that a lead trust is only earning at the current low federal rate. If the actual investments of the trust produce a higher return than the payments made to The ACU Foundation over the term of the trust, then the full value of the trust may be transferred to family with zero gift tax.

Car wraps are a flexible option for changing the appearance of your car while protecting the original paint job. One of the perks? It's a long-term money saver. After daily wear and tear from driving your vehicle, you might have a few scratches on the car. If you have a wrap, you can have the wrap replaced instead of repainting the entirety of your vehicle after the base coat was scratched without a wrap!
Custom vehicle wraps are designed to give you the flexibility of changing the appearance of your car, vehicle, truck, or van while protecting the original finish.
Why should you look into lifting your truck? Aside from adding clearance for those off-road moments, the cosmetic improvement gets an approving nod from those you drive past. A mere 12 inches does not seem like much, but it really pushes your truck into a class of its own when you add a lift and garnish your vehicle with gorgeous rims and thick, all-terrain wheels.
Custom wheels also boost your vehicle's appearance ten-fold. It's amazing how the change from factory to sharp black or platinum rims can make your vehicle unique like you.

text: The National Jewish Population Survey 2000-01 (NJPS) has been the focus of substantial controversy and misinterpretation. Because of both its design and implementation, there are numerous difficulties in using NJPS data to understand the contemporary American Jewish community. This “guide” analyzes key issues about NJPS, including its sampling design, response rate, assessment of Jewish identity, weighting, and structure of the instrument. Although NJPS provides valuable information for scholars and policy users, focusing on population estimates and ignoring methodological limitations makes misinterpretation likely. Estimates, to the extent they are offered, need to be discussed as ranges within confidence intervals and with caveats about their interpretation. A particular caution is that analysis of characteristics of the population must distinguish between the entire estimated Jewish population and those who are “persons of Jewish background.” The present guide outlines appropriate use of the NJPS data set, emphasizing multivariate analyses and investigations of relationships among variables. NJPS represents the most complex study of the Jewish population ever conducted, and while methodological limitations need to be taken into account, the study provides potentially important insights into the character of the American Jewish community.

We've covered this combo around here before, pairing various Irish farmhouse cheeses with Irish whiskeys. Pure yum. But can cheese be made with whiskey as an ingredient? Wonder no more, because the Old Irish Creamery is doing just that.
Their base cheese is a smooth creamy cheddar, in which they incorporate a range of interesting flavours. I tried three of them - chilli, oak smoked, and Irish whiskey - with and without a glass of whiskey on the side.
The chilli cheddar looks very attractive with its red flakes of chilli. It has a real hot kick, followed by a fascinating sweetness. It's good! It absolutely does not go with any whiskey though so just enjoy it on its own.
The oak smoked cheese is also very tasty on its own (it's some indication of the affinity between cheese and whiskey that they both take smoke so well). We have matched smoked cheese with Locke's 8yo before but I discovered Black Bush works very well here.
So, to the main object of interest: the Irish Whiskey-flavoured cheddar. The whiskey is Jameson, and the label says it accounts for 1.5% of the product's make-up. Does it taste of whiskey? Honestly, I couldn't pick it out. The cheese has a mild tang alright, perhaps a slight metallic finish (not in a bad way). But I think there is scope to push this ingredient further. They could either use a whiskey with a more contrasting flavour, like Kilbeggan. Or maybe they could concentrate the whiskey in veins within the cheese (like their dark-veined porter cheese) instead of evenly dispersed throughout.
I tried various whiskeys alongside it, and reckoned Paddy was the best match. I tested expensive whiskeys too but between the Black Bush and the Paddy I discovered that whiskey & cheese matching doesn't have to be a pricey undertaking.
The company has various other tempting flavours that I'm sure are worth a taste and a line-up against the whiskey shelf.

Wow! An Ohio teenager who recently had her phone taken away by her dad as a punishment should get used to not having it for a while -- after calling 911 to report it stolen.
The 16-year-old, named Malikah, called police to report that her phone had been stolen from her Cleveland home. She told the dispatcher, “My father took property, which is an $800 phone, that does not belong to him... I just want him to return my phone and I could leave and go to my grandmother’s."
Police went to the home alright…and spoke with the girl's father, who said that he'd taken away the phone as a punishment. Police left without writing any tickets, but explained to the dramatic teenager that owning a phone is a privilege. Have any of you dealt with an entitled child? What did you do?

The Explaindio Media Kit is a vast collection of tools and resources that make creating videos with Explaindio faster, easier and better. And you can use them in plenty of other video applications too.
✓ 7 High quality animated characters. Each has 13 different poses and come in a variety of formats to make your Explaindio projects come to life.
✓ 126 texture backgrounds in JPG format that quickly and easily spice up your videos.
✓ 43 framed over-lays - These graphics are placed OVER your other media to create cool effects.
✓ 19 ready-made, potent Call To Action videos - These videos use potent sales techniques so your videos create more clicks, emails and phone calls.
✓ Cool collection of custom sketch "hands/brushes" - A collection of pens, pencils and brushes to use in your Explaindio sketches.
✓ Blue Ribbon Resources - I've collected the best video media resources over the last 3-4 years. These are the "Best of the Best" and while there's a few paid resources, the vast majority of the resources included are free of charge.
Emotion sells. Despite what we tell ourselves, we buy using emotion and then justify our decision using logic later. Your videos must make viewers FEEL.
This characters were designed to express a rage of "trigger emotions" which make your viewers feel in certain ways.
Not only does each character have 13 different poses and a variety of emotions, they come in an assortment of file types so they can be used in virtually any video making software.
MP4 - These are the video versions. They are 1280x720 and are perfect for using with Explaindio's sketch feature. And, they can be used in all the Exlpaindio animated slides that allow video backgrounds. You're getting two videos per character. Since MP4 videos don't allow much control, the characters are positioned differently and use white and either black or gray backgrounds. This gives you a variety of choices and makes them very easy to customize and the basic background colors will go with any color scheme.
It's so easy...Just add some text in Explandio's sketch feature and you've got professional looking videos in a snap!
SWF ActionScript 3 - Explaindio only supports animations using the latest SWF/Flash coding and your animated characters were created to specifically work with Explaindio. This means you you'll make your Explaindio slides come alive with these high quality animated characters.
PNG - 13 for each character.
Face To Face characters are a bunch of animated "faces" you add over images and clip art to turn them into animated characters. Some even "talk", just add your own voice overs.
There's 24 "talking" male Face To Face animations and 15 female faces, and they come in both SWF (for Explaindio) and GIF (for PowerPoint) formats.
You also get a bunch of "silent" characters that don't speak. There's 12 men and 12 women characters, and they all have both SWF and PNG versions to work with Explaindio. Plus, each of the 24 silent Face To Face characters have both happy and sad versions.
Also included in your Explainer Media Kit are 126 texture backgrounds in JPG format. Adding textured backgrounds is easy in Explaindio and can give your videos a dramatically improve the look of your videos.
Here's the deal...I searched all the Public Domain image sites for the BEST backgrounds to use in Explaindio. I took each background and resized them so they are perfectly compatible to use in both Explaindio's sketch and slide features.
I also changed the color of most of the backgrounds to give you as many design options as possible, so you don't have to mess with the technical graphics stuff.
I made this 30 second demo video using 3 of the texture backgrounds in Explaindio's "sketch" feature. This should give you quite a few ideas of how your texture background images can really spice up even the most basic videos the fast and easy way.
You're Also Getting 43 Framed Over-Lays.
While backgrounds go "behind" other elements, framed over-lays go OVER other media and can take your Explaindio videos to the next level.
These will work in in both Explaindio's sketch feature and in animated slides. Of course, not all Explaindio slides are formatted for images, but most are.
Again, I spent hours and hours searching all the Public Domain sites for the BEST images to use as framed over-lays. I resized the images to work with Explaindio. I also made certain areas of the images transparent to expose what is behind the over-lays so you don't have to.
It's so very easy in Explaindio's sketch feature to add a video with a frame over-lay to give your videos added impact.
In the video below, a couple of the examples demonstrate how the transparent PNGs frame over-lays can be placed over a couple of example videos (videos not included).
The other examples show an image (not included), then the image over a texture background, then adding a frame over-lay. The combo of texture backgrounds, frame over-lays and your own images and videos give you limitless possibilities.
The Missing Link in Many Explaindio Videos - GETTING ACTION!
You've created an Explaindio video worthy of Steven Spielberg and people have watched your entire video. The next step is to get them to take ACTION. And a powerful call to action is missing from many Explaindio videos. Just adding contact info isn't good enough! A good call to action is what really separates the video marketing pros from the "wannabes".
There's 19 ready-made, potent Call To Action videos using the right mix of kinetic typography also included in your kit. Just add your own custom contact info and watch your results multiple.
Plus get a collection of custom sketch "hands/brushes". Explaindio allows you to add your own custom images to use to "draw" elements in your videos. I've included 21 custom brushes you can use to jazz up your sketches.
Again, I hit up the Public Domain sites for the best images to use as "brushes". I resized them, converted them to PNG files and made them transparent as needed so you don't have to mess with finding and transforming them.
Special Bonus - Save Your Precious Money and Time with "Kurt's Blue Ribbon Resources - The Ultimate Collection of the Best FREE and Cheap Video Making Resources"!

Have you ever been fascinated by the power of Android?
Have you ever wondered how do these apps in our smartphones have changed the way we live?
Do you ever wonder what it feels to be an Android developer? If yes, then this article is the icing on the cake for you.
So let’s get started. The biggest problem one has to face to learn something new is getting started. Once the spark is provoked, the fire will blaze.
Consider yourself a carpenter who desires to create an alluring piece of furniture. So, you need a good workshop, a handy set of tools along with some skills to accomplish your goal. Now if we think of Android Development as carpentry in some multiverse, Android Studio would be our workshop. Our tools would be Java Programming Language, XML(eXtensible Markup Language) etc. along with our skills viz. knowledge of OOP(Object Oriented Programming), creativity and some inspiration or idea for your application.
You’ll need to install JDK(Java Development Kit) and Android Studio to develop Android Applications. Android Apps could be developed using Java or Kotlin, as Kotlin has been added as a supported language in Android Studio. So, the first step would be to download and install JDK and set environment path variable for java. I’d recommend you to search the internet to do so as “googling” is an important skill a developer must have under his belt. Everybody gets stuck somewhere, but it’s important to know what to search to get out of the problem.
Now, after JDK is installed, download Android Studio. It’s the official IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for Android. You can use Eclipse if you want but its recommended to use Android Studio. Android Studio provides the fastest tools for building apps for every type of Android device. It also provides world-class code editing, debugging, performance tooling, a flexible build system, and an instant build/deploy system which allows you to focus on building unique and high-quality apps. This development tool is built on IntelliJ IDEA which is a Java IDE for professional developers by JetBrains which provides some great debugging features and allows you to maintain a code structure for your project. Android Studio provides some great help features such as auto completion and suggestions for your variable names, hints for making your code effective and better along with Auto Import options for various Classes.
After you’ve successfully installed Android Studio on your system, it’s time to get your hands dirty. Open Android Studio and you’ll be prompted to enter various details about your project such as your project name, your Application name, minimum supported SDK version which is an integer designating the minimum API Level required for the application to run. The Android system will prevent the user from installing the application if the system’s API Level is lower than the value specified in this attribute.
App Development would work in two parts going hand in hand, User Interface and functionality. User Interfaces would be developed in XML whereas Java will provide the functionality. You’ll work with several Views which are the building blocks used to build the layout of an app. Some of the commonly used Views in XML are TextView, ImageView, EditText, RadioButton, RadioGroup, Button etc. These Views are contained by their parent ViewGroups such as LinearLayout, RelativeLayout, ConstraintLayout etc. In XML, you work with tags like in HTML and these tags have several attributes associated with them. So, a kid could have attributes like black hair and brown eyes and an XML element like TextView would contain several attributes such as its width, height, text, textSize etc. You’ll come across words like Activity and Gradle while working with Android and these words could be intimidating for a learner like you.
An activity is an application component that provides a screen with which users can interact in order to do something, such as dial the phone, take a photo, send an email, or view a map. Each activity is given a window in which to draw its user interface.
Gradle is a build system. I would recommend you to read this answer by Gagandeep Singh on Stack Overflow for a better understanding of Gradle.
A most important tip for you: Befriend StackOverflow. Stack Overflow is the largest, most trusted online community for developers to learn, share their programming knowledge, and build their careers. If you ever get stuck on a problem, google it and you’d see a link to that same problem discussed on StackOverflow 9 out of 10 times.
After you’ve opened your newly created project, you’d see project structure with various folders like res, src, main, Java, layout etc. It’s better to follow this project structure. You can also create your own folders. Resource folder contains various resources to our app such as images which are called drawable’s, media files etc. java folder contains java code of our applications. Layout folder contains our XML code which is used to create User Interface for our app.
So, create UI in XML and add functionality to your UI using Java.

text: Abstract: In this investigation an electric field was applied to a phase change thermal storage system while it was discharging energy. The phase change material used was octadecane. Octadecane is a high purity dielectric material that has a melting temperature close to room temperature. The material was forced to solidify using a heat exchanger mount below the phase change material, cold water flowed through the heat exchanger to ensure it maintained a constant temperature below the melting temperature of the phase change material. By applying -8kV to 9 electrodes – positioned in the phase change material – and by using the heat exchanger as an electrical ground – an electric field was generated in the phase change material. The electric field caused unbalanced body forces in the fluid which generated electro-convection in the fluid. The system was designed such that electro-convection is the only source of convection in the system to isolate the effects of electro-convection, allowing for the underlying physics of electro-convection to be studied easier. To understand the effects of applying electro-convection, a case where there is no applied voltage on the electrodes was compared to a case where there was -8 kV applied to the electrodes. Experiments showed that the effect of applying electro-convection depends on the initial temperature; however, it was found that the improvement after two hours was less than 10%. For a wall temperature of 8.5℃ and an initial temperature of 50℃ - the melting temperate of octadecane is 28℃- then the maximum enhancement of the energy extracted is 50%, but two hours after the start of the test the enhancement approached zero. For a wall temperature of 8.5℃ and an initial temperature of 30℃, the maximum enhancement is 10% and similarly fall to zero after a few hours of application. A simple analytical model was developed. The experimental and numerical results showed that at the early stages of energy discharge the electro-convection case had a large improvement compared to a pure conduction case, however as time progresses this improvement decreases. The explanation for the trend is that adding convection only increases the rate that energy is taken out of the liquid, thus the maximum improvement is bounded by the amount of sensible energy in the liquid phase change material, once this sensible energy is removed applying electrohydrodynamics is no longer beneficial.

For more years than I care to admit, my relationship with work had been fraught with pain, disappointment, frustration, and a huge dose of despair. I was a classic textbook case of a damaged relationship with work.
The True Nature of Work. I didn’t know that work could and should bring me joy and fulfillment.
That work could be a source of inspiration, challenge, nd excitement.
That I should look for work that was aligned to my gifts and talents.
That I could have the lifestyle I desire through work.
I believed that one went to solely work to earn money. The only reason work existed was so that we can pay our bills.
I believed that I had to sublimate my wants and desires in order to have that paycheck.
I believed that the company and/or the boss was entitled to have more power than I did.
I believed that there was no place for my voice in my work.
Add to this, a complete lack of expectations. I truly had no expectations for my career other than to be able to support myself.
So let me tell you what happens when you enter the workplace with this mélange of ignorance and false facts.
*Gifts and talents is a term I use throughout this book. Your gifts and talents encompass the unique expertise, faculties and the ‘You-ness’ that you incarnated with to share with others. Each of us possess gifts and talents that we are meant to give to the world. When you are sharing your gifts and talents, they bring you great joy, inspire you, and bring you vast amounts of fulfillment. Your gifts and talents are not simply things that you are good at but those things that your soul cries out for when you are not doing them. For example, you might have a special talent for training animals or for computer programming or for cooking. While other people might be sharing similar gifts and talents, no one will quite do it like you do. Your gifts and talents embody your essence, your authentic self, your truth.
I started out my professional career as a paralegal. Within months I knew the field was not right for me. In hindsight, I can see that I wasn’t a good fit for the hierarchical and patriarchal style of law firms in the late 80s and early 90s. But at this time, I did not have the self-awareness to be able to express what I did not like about the work. So what did I do? I made a completely inaccurate assumption. I assumed that because I was not enjoying work, there had to be something wrong with me. Without the knowledge and tools to understand why I was unhappy, I pointed the finger at myself and made myself to blame. I set off on a path of trying to make a square peg (me) fit into a round hole (the legal field). For seven years, (yep, seven long years) I tried so hard to make it fit. Of course, when you’re not working in alignment with your gifts and talents, when you have inaccurate beliefs of what work should be doing for you, nothing is going to fit. And nothing fit for me.
My relationship with work continued to fracture. Work became a necessary evil. I got to the point where I dreaded each morning, I dreaded having to get up and put on the business suit and get myself to the office. I felt oppressed. I felt as if I was a prisoner being held captive by my employers and my paycheck. I felt resentful towards the workplace, and this morphed into resentment towards my employers and coworkers. The more oppressed I felt, the more I developed a victim mentality. The more I saw myself as a victim, the less I could see opportunity and possibility, and the more hopeless I became.
One day, I simply quit. I put in my notice although I did not have a plan. Although I didn’t have a lot of self-awareness at the time, I just knew something had to give. Some part of me knew I was heading for a nervous breakdown if I did not make a change.
I wish I could say that after I quit being a paralegal, I had some sort of wonderful epiphany and my relationship with work was miraculously healed. But that is not my story.
My next job was working as a manager for a legal staffing agency. After the honeymoon period wore off, the same dread, the same dislike, the same resentment for work I had felt when I was working as a paralegal came creeping back into my life. And like any pattern that repeats itself, I blamed myself again and I stayed, forcing myself to make it work, for five years.
I do not consider any part of my journey a mistake, nor do I have any regrets. However, there is one action I took during this time that, in hindsight, I wish I had done differently because what I did next had devastating repercussions.
I allowed all the blame that I had heaped upon myself for my damaged relationship with work to turn into shame. Lots of shame. Oh, how I beat myself up. Why couldn’t I make better career decisions? Maybe if I was smarter things would be different. Maybe if I was more successful, I would like to work. Why couldn’t I be like everybody else? My coworkers appeared happy. They seemed successful. What was so wrong with me that I couldn’t be like them? Then, there was my brother who was happily building his own successful business. Heck, we came from the same family – why couldn’t I be more like him? And since I wasn’t like him and I wasn’t like my coworkers, it had to mean there was something even more wrong with me than I could imagine. And the shame multiplied.
I never told a soul how I felt, thereby exacerbating the shame. As the years pass, the truth became harder and harder to admit because I so diligently built a happy positive facade. I began to need to believe the façade was real. Years later, when I finally started to tell my story to others, those that knew me “back when” were flabbergasted. They had no idea about the struggle I was going through. I hid it so well.
The first glimmer of hope for my relationship with work happened a few years after I left the staffing agency. I was working as a Director of Recruitment for a law firm. I had worked hard for this company (with little satisfaction, and was miserable most days). After about a year and a half, I was laid off by this company. This was my first “done” moment. I wasn’t winning at the game of work. I was unhappy, unsatisfied and on top of all of that, I was out of work. I knew I had taken as much as I possibly could. Basically, I had no more suffering in me.
I have to tell you, at this point, I was down on my knees. My relationship with work was in a standoff. I hated it, and it seemed to hate me. Did working mean that one was sentenced to joyless suffering all for a paycheck? On top of that, the shame I felt at not being able to enjoy the work was a dark invisible presence that permeated my being. But yet through the haze of resentment and self-loathing, I was able to have one moment of grace, a moment of pure clarity. I promised myself that I would never allow myself to feel unfulfilled and miserable at a job again.
Although I didn’t know it at the time. I had just set my first professional boundary. This declaration, this simple statement of what I would and would not accept made me feel powerful. As if I had the power to chart my own course and to trust in myself.
This boundary led to additional boundaries. These boundaries became the litmus test I used for future offers of employment.
After establishing my boundaries, I started asking questions. Lots of questions.
Why am I so unhappy with work?
What lies underneath my unhappiness?
How can I feel whole?
What am I here to give?
I want to crawl into bed at night feeling as if I have experienced a day well lived. How can I make this a reality for me?
The next 10 years were revelatory for me. I took a role in management and HR at a Fortune 500 company. I did the hard work necessary to answer those questions. These years were spent giving myself the gift of understanding what I needed and desired in my relationship with work. Beyond finding the answers to these crucial questions, I was also learning. I was learning the strategies and tools needed to create life changes. I was learning about the True Nature of Work and how to use it effectively to succeed professionally. I was learning about the value of boundaries and how they can stand in service to one’s career goals. Most importantly, I learned how to change the foundation and nature of my relationship with work.
Next, I decided I would no longer suffer in silence nor would I allow others to suffer. So, I took what I was learning and turned my “learnings” into techniques and strategies that I could give to others to help them heal their relationship with work and achieve their professional goals. That is how I ended up here. Writing about and sharing my passion for healthy relationships with work.
My journey in the darkness of a damaged relationship with work was long and circuitous but I finally made it into the light. Today, I am dedicated to building awareness of the impact that damaged relationships with work have upon us, and committed to providing solutions. With this awareness, we can all begin to move towards knowing and experiencing The True Nature of Work. We can all begin to use work to provide the professional, personal and financial rewards we seek.
For better or worse, this has been my journey. And it is my pleasure to share the fruits of it with you.

In general it is possible to say that all described option from this document are optional. On another hand to play with this options can simplify your life.
This option will enable the compression of traffic passing through SSH session. SSH is using same compressing algorithms like gzip. In many cases you can help with this option to the SSH session.
On another hand at some causes it is not really needed (all that you can get is higher CPU and RAM utilization). Nice example for cause where you shall not use it is at transferring already comprised data through SSH session.
In some cases it is important to keep some traffic passing between SSH Server and SSH Client to keep the session open. According to this it is really handy to send a null packet periodically between SSH Server and SSH Client.
In this case you will open one TCP connection from SSH Client to SSH Server. In parallel you will create a Unix Socket. In the case that you would like to open parallel SSH connection to same SSH Server from your SSH Client your SSH client program will instead of connecting to SSH Server connect to local Unix Socket.
According to this you need to carefully decide where you are going to use it and if it is safe.
This option will automatically start SSH Agent Forwarding from your SSH Client to SSH Server. It is same as you will use “ –A “ switch at ssh command. In the case that you will enable this parameter SSH Client will start SSH Agent forwarding automatically.
In some cases you are looking for host specific configuration. In this case it is possible to configure it at the end of our config file.
In the case that you are storing all public keys in DNS and you are using DNSSEC it is handy to use this as an authentication authority. In this way client will connect to SSH Server. To validate SSH Server’s keys will be used DNS instead of “ ~/.ssh/known_hosts ”.
Option “yes” will not ask you for validating the SSH Server key when it will match the SSH key stored at DNS.
Option “ask” will ask you any time for confirmation for all SSH Servers.
This option will enable X Server Forwarding from SSH Client to SSH Server. This option is handy in case that you would like to run application requiring X server on your SSH Server but you do not wont to install the X Server with Windows manager on the SSH Server. In this case you can use X Server running on your SSH Client site.

Today my sister told me about a neat idea that she hear about in her journeys…the Art-o-mat. In 1997 Clark Whittington, a North Carolina artist, struck upon the idea of re-using a cigarette vending machine to sell small prints of his photography for $1.00 at an art exhibit of his in a Winston-Salem cafe.
After the exhibit, the cafe owner loved the vending machine and wanted to keep it at the cafe (it is still there to this day). Viola, the Art-o-mat was born. The cafe owner introduced Whittington to other local arts and together they created Artists in Cellophane to support the Art-o-mat with artwork.
As of this writing, there are 82 Art-o-mats across the country with around 400 contributing artists from around the world. Need your daily hit of fresh art? Just find your local Art-o-mat, drop in some money, pick a art vendor and pull the knob…out drops art for your daily consumption. The varieties are as diverse as the artists themselves. Sample photography work, beaded jewelry, mixed media work…something for everyone. Sometimes your just go for something that sounds interesting and see what you get. You can always be guaranteed that the your art will be about the size of a pack of cigarettes…a side effect of the Art-o-mat’s legacy.
Luckily I was visiting my sister in Madison, Wisconsin over the holidays when she told me about this. There is an Art-o-mat located in town and we had to go check it out. It was found at a local store called Pop Deluxe. They are a Art and Gift shop where you can find an eclectic mix of a different items…where else would you expect to find a Art-o-mat? It was located upstairs in their loft. Apparently the less than prime location hasn’t hurt business. You need to purchase a $5.00 token from the cashier to feed the Art-0-mat. When my sister went to get her tokens, the clerk made a comment about “we’re running low on tokens again…guess we’ll have to go empty the machine yet again”.
As you can see, the Art-0-mat is not easy to miss. I consider these machines themselves to be works of art. The listing of machine locations from the Art-o-mat website has a photo of each machine…I wasn’t surprised that each one is unique in design. I don’t quite know how to explain how much this idea resonates with me. I love the re-use aspect of the vending machines (regarldess of their original use, still a classic looking device). The fact of making various artists work more accessible to people but in such a unique method–actual bit size samples of their work, not just the flat representations that are available on the web today–is something that I think we will be seeing more of in the future.
Kudos to Clark Whittington for such a great idea and for the perseverance of sharing this with everyone across the country. Help keep this idea growing by visiting (or installing) an Art-o-mat near you!
I have taken on the personal challenge of trying to visit as many of these as I can. As I travel around the country, I will try to stop in at a Art-o-mat near me and document the experience. You can monitor my progress and view photos at my website.
Just for the record…I was the one who decided that I needed to visit as many of these as I could. Unfortunately, you travel a lot more than I do. Hope you had a good trip home. I miss you and Jen already.
