THE WATERBOY A film review by Matt Williams
RATING: * * 1/2* out of * * * *
After his attempt to broaden his appeal with The Wedding Singer, Adam Sandler returns back to familiar ground in The Waterboy. It may not be terribly innovative, but Sandler's in peak form, and he delivers a humorous (if predictable) comedy.
This time, Sandler stars as Bobby Boucher, a dimwitted Cajun man who makes his living as the waterboy for a local college football team. Water is his life, and though socially inept, he makes water-serving an exquisite art form. However, it's not one appreciated by the team, which torments and picks on Bobby incessantly...until one day Coach Red Beaulieu (Jerry Reed) finally fires him.
Not to fear, however, for Bobby soon finds work down at South Central Louisiana State University, where the country's worst collegiate football team plays. Coach Klein (Henry Winkler), a bit of a loser in his own right, gives Bobby a chance as waterboy. However, when one day Bobby loses his temper on the field, a hidden talent for sacking emerges. Coach Klein immediately recruits Bobby to play linebacker...but there's one problem: Bobby's mama (Kathy Bates).
You see, Bobby still lives with Mama, and she's the disapproving sort.  After 31 years, will Bobby get the backbone to stand up to his mama? (Or at least sneak around behind her back?) Hmmm...would there be a movie otherwise?
To those who have followed Sandler's career, the character of Bobby Boucher is a familiar one. The character seems like an amalgam of Canteen Boy, Cajun Man and Happy Gilmore. Yet, this is obviously Sandler in his element. He's played this character so many times before that he does play it well.
The Waterboy is extremely formulaic...but it's also funny. If you've seen one sports movie, you know exactly where The Waterboy is going. But The Waterboy isn't about plot...it's about setting up the quick laugh, and delivering it home.
At times, watching The Waterboy is like watching one of those NFL sacking videos (you know, like The NFL's Greatest Career-Ending-Injuries). It's a little painful, but disturbingly humorous.
There are no epic moments that will go down in comedy history here. But there's enough funny stuff to keep you amused throughout the movie, and for a little while thereafter. What more do you want from an Adam Sandler film?
The Waterboy is the epitome of the "Adam Sandler" movie, and as that it's very unlikely to win any converts. If you love Adam Sandler, chances are you'll love this movie. If you can't stand him, this film won't change your mind...you'd best check the other theaters in your local megaplex.

Indication
Imlygic is an oncolytic immunotherapy indicated for the treatment of melanoma that is regionally or distantly metastatic
Important Safety Information
Immunocompromised Patients: Imlygic has not been studied in immunocompromised patients. Based on animal data, patients who are severely immunocompromised may be at an increased risk of disseminated herpetic infection and should not be treated with Imlygic. Disseminated herpetic infection may also occur in immunocompromised patients (such as those with HIV/AIDS, leukemia, lymphoma, common variable immunodeficiency, or who require chronic high-dose steroids or other immunosuppressive agents). Consider the risks and benefits of treatment before administering Imlygic to these patients.Accidental Exposure to Imlygic: Accidental exposure may lead to transmission of Imlygic and herpetic infection. Healthcare providers and close contacts (household members, caregivers, sex partners, or persons sharing the same bed) should avoid direct contact with injected lesions or body fluids of treated patients. Accidental needle stick and splash back have been reported in healthcare providers during preparation and administration of Imlygic.
Patients should be advised to avoid touching or scratching injection sites as this could lead to inadvertent transfer of Imlygic to other areas of their body.
Close contacts who are pregnant or immunocompromised should not change the patient’s dressings or clean their injection sites.
Caregivers should be advised to wear protective gloves when assisting patients in applying or changing occlusive dressings and to observe safety precautions for disposal of used dressings and cleaning materials.
In the event of an accidental exposure to Imlygic, exposed individuals should be advised to clean affected area thoroughly with soap and water and/or a disinfectant. If signs or symptoms of herpetic infection develop, they should contact their healthcare provider. Imlygic is sensitive to acyclovir.
Herpetic Infection in Imlygic-treated Patients: In clinical studies, herpetic infections (including cold sores and herpes keratitis) have been reported in patients treated with Imlygic. Patients who develop herpetic infections should be advised to follow standard hygienic practices to prevent viral transmission.
Imlygic is sensitive to acyclovir. Consider the risks and benefits of Imlygic treatment before administering acyclovir or other anti-viral agents as these agents may interfere with the effectiveness of Imlygic.
Cellulitis at the Injection Site: Necrosis or ulceration of tumor tissue may occur during Imlygic treatment. Cellulitis and systemic bacterial infection have been reported. Careful wound care and infection precautions are recommended, particularly if tissue necrosis results in open wounds.
Impaired healing at the Injection Site: In clinical studies, impaired healing at the injection site has been reported. Imlygic may increase the risk of impaired healing in patients with underlying risk factors (e.g., previous radiation at the injection site or lesions in poorly vascularized areas).
Consider the risks and benefits of Imlygic before continuing treatment if persistent infection or delayed healing develops.
Immune-mediated Events: In clinical studies, immune-mediated events including glomerulonephritis, vasculitis, pneumonitis, and worsening psoriasis have been reported in patients treated with Imlygic.
Consider the risks and benefits of Imlygic before initiating treatment in patients who have underlying autoimmune disease or before continuing treatment in patients who develop immune-mediated events.
Plasmacytoma at Injection Site: Plasmacytoma has been reported in proximity to the injection site after administration of Imlygic. Consider the potential risks and benefits of Imlygic in patients with multiple myeloma or in whom plasmacytoma develops during treatment.
Adverse Reactions: The most commonly reported adverse drug reactions (≥ 25%) in Imlygic-treated patients were fatigue, chills, pyrexia, nausea, influenza like illness, and injection site pain. Most adverse reactions reported were mild or moderate in severity and generally resolved within 72 hours. The most common grade 3 or higher adverse reaction was cellulitis.

Android Sqlite Example
SQLite is embedded into every Android device. Using an SQLite database in Android does not require a setup procedure or administration of the database. You only have to define the SQL statements for creating and updating the database. Afterwards the database is automatically managed for you by the Android platform.
If your application creates a database, this database is by default saved in the directory DATA/data/APP_NAME/databases/FILENAME. The parts of the above directory are constructed based on the following rules. DATA is the path which the Environment.getDataDirectory() method returns. APP_NAME is your application name. FILENAME is the name you specify in your application code for the database.
To create and upgrade a database you have to create a subclass of the SQLiteOpenHelper so you have to extend SQLiteOpenHelper when you define a database class.Here the simplest example how you create a database named “mydb” and a table in it as “data”.You have to override onCreate() and onUpgrade() methods.
The SQLiteOpenHelper class provides the getReadableDatabase() and getWriteableDatabase() methods to get access to an SQLiteDatabase object; either in read or write mode.Also SQLiteDatabase provides insert(), update(), delete(), and query methods.To make a query you can use either of rawquery() or query().Also keep this mind that you should always make sure you use methods as synchronized.Here another example of adding data into database and retrieving from it.
We want to use synchronized for every database operation method to avoid from getting database locked errors. I used a list of objects which are “Data” objects that make things more readable but you can use just an object or even use only the areas like objects that make things more readable but you can use just an object or even use only the areas like (long _id, long _dataId, String _value).All the database operations are done in try-catch-finally block and returning a boolean value to show if the insertion was successful or not is the convenient way to do it. ContentValues is the class given by Android and its required for any database operation.
REMARK:You will see a commented out code which is db.insertWithOnConflict method that is a very good way to insert with insertion algorithms at the end. I used SQLiteDatabase.CONFLICT_REPLACE which basicly updates the old one with the new one if it’s already in the database. And after the all operations are done always remember to close database otherwise you will get errors saying that database is already opened.
Queries can be created via the rawQuery() and query() methods or via the SQLiteQueryBuilder class . rawQuery() directly accepts an SQL select statement as input. query() provides a structured interface for specifying the SQL query. SQLiteQueryBuilder is a convenience class that helps to build SQL queries.
The following gives an example of a rawQuery() and a query() call.
Parameters of the query() method
| Parameters | Values |
|---|---|
| String dbName | The table name to compile the query against. |
| String[] columnNames | A list of which table columns to return. Passing "null" will return all columns. |
| String whereClause | Where-clause, i.e. filter for the selection of data, null will select all data. |
| String[] selectionArgs | You may include ?s in the "whereClause"". These placeholders will get replaced by the values from the selectionArgs array. |
| String[] groupBy | A filter declaring how to group rows, null will cause the rows to not be grouped. |
| String[] having | Filter for the groups, null means no filter. |
| String[] orderBy | Table columns which will be used to order the data, null means no ordering. |
After you have all database create, upgrade, add, and a get method how you will call it from the activity?Here is the how your main activity look like.

Texas Fans Aren’t Happy With Tom Herman vs. Iowa State Tonight
by Dan LyonsTexas wasn’t expected to beat Iowa State tonight. Jack Trice Stadium is a tough place to play, and Tom Herman’s Longhorns haven’t exactly separated themselves from the Big 12 pack so far this year.
ISU entered the game as a seven-point favorite. Through three quarters, the Cyclones led 20-7, though Texas just cut it to 20-14 to start the final frame.
With star quarterback Sam Ehlinger back, off of last year’s impressive season and Sugar Bowl win over Georgia, expectations were high for UT. Some probably underestimated what some of the other losses on the roster would mean.
Still, even with how good Matt Campbell has been in Ames, Texas fans expect to beat Iowa State every year.
Today, they’re not too happy with how Tom Herman’s team has looked:
This season is far from a disaster for Texas… the team is ranked 19th, and 6-3 on the year. Part of the issue was probably inflated expectations based on a bowl game, which is a pretty common occurrence.
You can understand the frustrations though, especially with how good the Longhorns can look in spurts.
If Texas wants a chance for a rematch against Oklahoma in the Big 12 title game, it probably needs to find a way to pull this out. Outside of some vocal fans, Tom Herman probably doesn’t have any real job pressure, though at some point he will need to take the leap that it looked like the Longhorns were nearing last fall.

Birdhouse
by Jack Chelgren on August 1, 2015
1.
The paws at the rump of my skull
are too many.
I’d be like a gold camel, who takes only sips
at the water, and seldom.
2.
Here, there’s a birdhouse across the pulled water,
behind the felled tree
that dipped in a windstorm
that howled like an eagle.
Gold eagle.
3.
Napoleon sits, wears his laurels. He rots
in Vermont, in a stoop or a hamlet.
He’s mushed like the leaves
resting under the birdhouse.
The leaves resting under gold water.
4.
I say, “Would you screech, blind canary, or fluff
like the gadflies I’ve seen all my life?
I haven’t the lip or the pelt for it, no,
I haven’t the hollow, prone, legible bones.”

be careful
by Mark Baumer on August 1, 2015
Americans eat a lot of mouth cement.
I would like to get a job where I’m paid to stare at a thumbtack instead of a computer.
Should I create a new email account and then enroll that email account in community college so I can accrue more student loans?
When I was fifteen I ran away from home because if poems were fish then they would have long hair.

I don’t know what happened to this country’s meat consumption, but I think it moved somewhere and built a wall.
One of my favorite things to do is rub a banana peel on a penny until it rusts.
The summer after my brain fell apart, the town flooded, but no one blamed me I didn’t have a boat.
I heard an interview on the radio recently. I’m not sure who was being interviewed.
If the inside of your shoe becomes discolored caress it with egg whites and milk.

2 Poems
by Joyce Chong on August 1, 2015
hard animals
On a map, the world is unrecognizable / in a staircase, it becomes cyclical / a rounded jail, a tall bird cage / our every step a bite, a tooth / piano key / hard enamel / hard animal / we gnaw bones / whittle coarse edge into point / carnivores that chew chew chew / tonguing our deep exasperation / and softly, spit it out again / this pulp / this chewing tobacco / our spit filters the earth / our spit a bitter tonic like salt in the wounds of monsters.
dissonance
i.
ii. My head a pit fire, a storming wind / thin oxygen thin sky / the smell of a rainfall / interrupted.
iii. This mundane spilling out / we are made inanimate, we are / walking through the motions, wading in fog / tearing into lightlessness like / ripped meat / from the bone.
iv. Running gets us nowhere / I am still here blistering sympathies, insufficiencies / silences stretching their bone hands / round necks, caught on lockets / like lifelines; they call the names of your ghosts.

august looks like winter this year
my drug dealer asked me on a date to go ice skating
i google insomnia and delirium
i look for another doorway in the bathtub n in my bed
it doesn’t matter that we’re gonna die
i feel like im dying often anyway

I want to be in love while playing the banjo. While playing the banjo, I will be in love. As I am in love and playing the banjo, I am also kissing you. All at once.
by Vanessa Fonseca on August 1, 2015
if you pump my stomach
itll just be pink gooey stuff
youll say to the doctor
whats all this? what is that?
the doctor will say
oh..my gosh!
it appears as if shes in love!
or, was in love
the gooey pink stuff clogged up her lungs
and she died
from being in love
we can revive her if we take it all out
you and the doctor take tiny shovels
and start scooping the goo out of my body
i cough a little and come back awake
hey guys!
im back!
the next thing you know,
youre inviting me to your house again
and i bring my ukulele
and by 11pm that night
during our soggy and cold sleepover
im being rushed to the hospital again

“The complexity for minimum component costs has increased at a rate of roughly a factor of two per year.
Certainly over the short term this rate can be expected to continue, if not to increase. Over the longer term,
the rate of increase is a bit more uncertain, although there is no reason to believe it will not remain nearly constant for at least 10 years.

Infinite $digest Loop
$rootScope
{0} $digest() iterations reached. Aborting! Watchers fired in the last 5 iterations: {1}
This error occurs when the application's model becomes unstable and each $digest
cycle triggers a state change and subsequent $digest
cycle.
Angular detects this situation and prevents an infinite loop from causing the browser to become unresponsive.
For example, the situation can occur by setting up a watch on a path and subsequently updating the same path when the value changes.
$scope.$watch('foo', function() {
$scope.foo = $scope.foo + 1;
});
The maximum number of allowed iterations of the $digest
cycle is controlled via TTL setting which can be configured via $rootScopeProvider

Bike-riding goons rob woman at gunpoint at Pier 84
by Craig McCarthyA pack of bike-riding men surrounded a 41-year-old woman and robbed her at gunpoint at Pier 84 in Hell’s Kitchen, cops said Sunday.
The woman told police the men circled around her around 8 p.m. on Friday in front of 555 12th Avenue when one of them pulled a gun.
The pack stole the woman’s purse containing $60 in cash, a cell phone and three credit cards, according to police.
The credit cards were used four times later that night at CVS and a smoke shop, where two of the men charged more than $640, cops said.
Police released photos of the pair who used the credit cards Sunday.

I already adressed this. everyone starts in semel, and they can change their hometown later. (once they GET to those places)
Semel used to be the most populous city.

got to agree with vitriol on this one. if everyone started in the same town, you could actually make a "chain" of quests starting in that town. new players will not know that aridus is the town where u can find most people, and you will have them spawn in towns with no people and get bored fast. having everyone start at same and make that a "base" for players up to lets say lvl 8 or something, you will have players who can communicate and help new ones.

hmmm...interesting idea. I tend to favour choosing your own town, but the point about a quest-/help-chain is a good one.
The problem with that is that it gets tedious for older players, and can lead to crowding and awkwardness. On the other hand, imagine the game while there are still very few players--it would be way too spread out. Perhaps a compromise--have a "recommended" town that is the default, with a tag explaining that it's the best idea for now/for new players?
If not that, then a lock on other towns until a certain player-density is reached.

honestly the addition of aridus into xenimus is a new one to me. I dont think aridus should exist. maybe a dungeon or a ruin where aridus is now.
Semel and terthius should be the most populous towns.
Semel for being the starting town, and terthius for having the best merchants.

I agree w/ Vitriol here. A mistake EJ had made quite early into Xen was disconnecting the enviroment in regards of starting in random towns. This threw new players off, put a dent on the community, and erased a starting point in the storyline. Players need a common ground that brings everyone together, a central townsquare. Semel was great because it literally was Town 1 and knowing so gave you a sense such as "ok so this is where the game starts." From there one could make his/her first couple levels and eventually team up with some other strong players to attempt to make the trip to T2.
Me and Karl had a discussion about this once on aim and we liked the idea. Another plus to this is workload becomes drastically reduced. Rather than worry so much about content outside the first continent we can now put more effort into creating quests that can guide players lvl1-10 and give them a story.
I don't believe Karl has decided just how much of a clone this will be yet. It's safe to say at least 95% of the old xen gameplay and mechanics will be directly duplicated but as far as whats beyond that, no one knows. Keep in mind the goal of Unseen Studios was originally to create their own game. I wouldn't be suprised to see some Unseen influence into project Volucris ;P

Kuba I want your manbabies.
You have hit the nail right on the head.
By having everyone start in the same place, it fosters a sense of community VITAL to the xenimus feel. If a player spawns in palus, they are going to think the game is EMPTY, because NO ONE goes to palus.

starting towns have little to nothing to do with where the community gathers. its real only relevance is for where you respawn when you lose xp and where you fight rogues and skeletons before you can port yourself around.
People managed to find a common gathering place nowadays even with all the different towns you can choose from. Everyone is either in t7 or cons merch.
I wouldn't care if everyone spawned in semel as long as there are a couple teleporters to more low key towns that you can store in when youve just lost bag/lsa or whatnot. General grief poo like pking people at storage should be avoidable if the person wants to take the time to go to another city.

The only thing about starting towns is if everyone only gathers in one town, but your starting place is random, if you are real new player and you don't see even one person around, you probably will get frustrated and quit unless there is a very very good help/guidance system.
We will definitely need a few people to write a newbie help guide/quest system.

He's done a little bit of advertising, but nothing like we could do.
If we got put up a link on digg and had everyone on the forums digg it and it hit top page we would easily get 20,000+ page views a day for awhile

Just like in original xenimus, there could be a port merchant.
I wouldn't like it though, people wouldnt walk to T3 like way back.

I really liked portal merchants. The starting town idea has grown on me, though, and I think I'll have everyone spawn in one town (at least to start)

how about u have to go to the city *like t3* at least once, then u can ask the merchant to port u back to other cities uve already been to... kinda like the flight points in WoW. this will still make adventuring nessesarry...

Video: Italian Motorway Bridge Collapses in Massive Landslide
SIAS, the company operating the A6 motorway, said that 20 metres of the bridge, originally 50 metres long, collapsed due to a landslide originating from a mountain overlooking the road.
Heavy rain that hit the Liguria region in the northwest of Italy on Sunday caused the collapse of a segment of a motorway bridge on the A6 Torino-Savona highway, about a kilometer from the coastal city of Savona. The bridge collapsed following a massive landslide that hit the area.
No casualties had been reported, although the head of Liguria’s regional government, Giovanni Toti, said earlier on Sunday at a news conference that the collapse of the bridge may have affected a vehicle.
Search operations continue by several fire brigade teams who arrived at the site along with 118 personnel, traffic police, as well as technical staff from the highway and SIAS.
Following the collapse of the bridge, SIAS closed the highway in both directions until further notice, although only one of the two separate carriageways had collapsed, while the second was reported to have been unaffected by the massive landslide.
Another local road in the area neighboring the motorway was also washed away by the landslide.

Its the peak of winter season, I know its not that cold in Bangalore but its definitely very dry :( I have been using this body butter for over a month now and can say with guaranty that its one of the best body butters I have used .
Price: Rs. 1095 for 200ml
Rose body butter is from the Atmosphere range which is inspired by pure air that pays tribute to the soothing and calming feeling that comes from the purity found in the atmosphere. The oxygenating process of the products in this range makes your skin breathe, thereby leaving you feeling pure and almost floating on air.
My take on the product: I loved the packaging, its a cute and sturdy container but quite bulky to be carried around. It feels like a smooth but thick cream which gets absorbed quite easily and leaves a light rose fragrance. I have a very dry skin which spends around 10 hours in AC everyday but just one application in morning last me throughout the day and this is what amazed me the most :)

Methods inherited from CGIHTTPServer.CGIHTTPRequestHandler:
- is_executable(self, path)
- Test whether argument path is an executable file.
- is_python(self, path)
- Test whether argument path is a Python script.
- run_cgi(self)
- Execute a CGI script.
Data and other attributes inherited from CGIHTTPServer.CGIHTTPRequestHandler:
- cgi_directories = ['/cgi-bin', '/htbin']
- have_fork = False
- have_popen2 = True
- have_popen3 = True
- rbufsize = 0
Methods inherited from SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler:
- copyfile(self, source, outputfile)
- Copy all data between two file objects.
The SOURCE argument is a file object open for reading
(or anything with a read() method) and the DESTINATION
argument is a file object open for writing (or
anything with a write() method).
The only reason for overriding this would be to change
the block size or perhaps to replace newlines by CRLF
-- note however that this the default server uses this
to copy binary data as well.
- do_GET(self)
- Serve a GET request.
- do_HEAD(self)
- Serve a HEAD request.
- guess_type(self, path)
- Guess the type of a file.
Argument is a PATH (a filename).
Return value is a string of the form type/subtype,
usable for a MIME Content-type header.
The default implementation looks the file's extension
up in the table self.extensions_map, using application/octet-stream
as a default; however it would be permissible (if
slow) to look inside the data to make a better guess.
- list_directory(self, path)
- Helper to produce a directory listing (absent index.html).
Return value is either a file object, or None (indicating an
error). In either case, the headers are sent, making the
interface the same as for send_head().
- translate_path(self, path)
- Translate a /-separated PATH to the local filename syntax.
Components that mean special things to the local file system
(e.g. drive or directory names) are ignored. (XXX They should
probably be diagnosed.)
Data and other attributes inherited from SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler:
- extensions_map = {'': 'application/octet-stream', '.3g2': 'video/3gpp2', '.3gp': 'video/3gpp', '.3gp2': 'video/3gpp2', '.3gpp': 'video/3gpp', '.AAC': 'audio/vnd.dlna.adts', '.ADT': 'audio/vnd.dlna.adts', '.ADTS': 'audio/vnd.dlna.adts', '.AddIn': 'text/xml', '.WMD': 'application/x-ms-wmd', ...}
- server_version = 'SimpleHTTP/0.6'
Methods inherited from BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler:
- address_string(self)
- Return the client address formatted for logging.
This version looks up the full hostname using gethostbyaddr(),
and tries to find a name that contains at least one dot.
- date_time_string(self, timestamp=None)
- Return the current date and time formatted for a message header.
- end_headers(self)
- Send the blank line ending the MIME headers.
- handle(self)
- Handle multiple requests if necessary.
- handle_one_request(self)
- Handle a single HTTP request.
You normally don't need to override this method; see the class
__doc__ string for information on how to handle specific HTTP
commands such as GET and POST.
- log_date_time_string(self)
- Return the current time formatted for logging.
- log_error(self, format, *args)
- Log an error.
This is called when a request cannot be fulfilled. By
default it passes the message on to log_message().
Arguments are the same as for log_message().
XXX This should go to the separate error log.
- log_message(self, format, *args)
- Log an arbitrary message.
This is used by all other logging functions. Override
it if you have specific logging wishes.
The first argument, FORMAT, is a format string for the
message to be logged. If the format string contains
any % escapes requiring parameters, they should be
specified as subsequent arguments (it's just like
printf!).
The client ip address and current date/time are prefixed to every
message.
- log_request(self, code='-', size='-')
- Log an accepted request.
This is called by send_response().
- parse_request(self)
- Parse a request (internal).
The request should be stored in self.raw_requestline; the results
are in self.command, self.path, self.request_version and
self.headers.
Return True for success, False for failure; on failure, an
error is sent back.
- send_error(self, code, message=None)
- Send and log an error reply.
Arguments are the error code, and a detailed message.
The detailed message defaults to the short entry matching the
response code.
This sends an error response (so it must be called before any
output has been generated), logs the error, and finally sends
a piece of HTML explaining the error to the user.
- send_header(self, keyword, value)
- Send a MIME header.
- send_response(self, code, message=None)
- Send the response header and log the response code.
Also send two standard headers with the server software
version and the current date.

Seeking God
Psalm 119:1-2
Blessed means "superlatively" happy.
Happiness is a by-product of following God. Happiness is not the goal.
To seek God you must do it with all your heart.
Seeking God means "keeping his statutes".
Matthew 6:25-31
Do not worry. Ironic. Can add a single hour to your life.
God knows your needs.
Seek first His kingdom and righteousness.
Then God will give you all you need.
Acts 17:26-27
God determines the times and places each person lives.
He does this so men will seek Him, reach out for Him and find Him.
He is not far from anyone.
A Christian meeting you is not by chance but of God.
John 4:23-24
God seeks men (Acts 17 taught men must seek God).
Men who want to worship Him in spirit and in truth.
Jeremiah 29:11-13
God has an individual plan for your life.
A plan to prosper you with hope and a future.
You will find God when you seek Him with all your heart.
Acts 8:26-39
The angels and the Holy Spirit are helping to get you to God
Do not be afraid to ask questions about life or the bible--be humble.
You need someone to explain the bible to you.
You will be "rejoicing" when you find God.
Questions
Which gate do you want to walk through? -- Matthew 7:13-14
Which one are you gonna pick?
What are you gonna do now to seek it?
Exhortation
Read bible every day, a chapter a day from the book of John and take notes.


As Gautam Buddha said, “To keep the body in good health is a duty otherwise we shall not be
able to keep our mind strong and clear.”
Health is the most treasured possession of our life. Both mental and physical health are
important for the healthy living. Mental health refers to psychological well-being. It is the
balanced state of mind functioning on an emotional and behavioural level. Mental state not only
manages your consciousness but also influences how your body functions.
India has made rapid strides in the health sector since independence. However, various eye
opening data from NFHS clearly indicate that access to healthcare still remains a challenge.
While the health statistics of rural India continue to be poor, the health status and access to health
for the poor in urban slum dwellers has surfaced to be equally deplorable and have less than 4%
of government primary healthcare facilities.
Urban slum dwellers suffer from adverse health conditions owing to mainly two reasons –first the
lack of education and thus lack of awareness; and second the unwillingness to lose a day’s wage in
order to reach the nearest medical facility. Healthcare for underprivileged, which is a desperate
need, thus remains unaddressed.
The need of the hour is thus a two pronged approach – first to bring quality healthcare services
to doorsteps of the needy and second to promote healthcare awareness and
contemporary healthcare seeking behaviour among the underprivileged.
 And in subscription to this view, Badlav Foundation has initiated the change on
Wheels programme. This is a unique mobile hospital programme that seeks to address problems of
mobility, accessibility and availability of primary healthcare with a special focus on children and
women, in urban slums and remote rural areas.


tikreg is a Python package that efficiently implements Tikhonov regression.
Tikhonov regression can be used to estimate encoding models with non-spherical multivariate normal priors. This framework is useful to model biological signals. This package was developed to analyze brain data collected using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). tikreg can also be used to model other neuroimaging signals (e.g. 2P, ECoG, etc) and LTI signals more generally.

Shifts the bits in the individual data elements (words, doublewords, or quadword) in the destination operand (first operand) to the right by the number of bits specified in the count operand (second operand). As the bits in the data elements are shifted right, the empty high-order bits are cleared (set to 0). If the value specified by the count operand is greater than 15 (for words), 31 (for doublewords), or 63 (for a quadword), then the destination operand is set to all 0s. Figure 4-15 gives an example of shifting words in a 64-bit operand.
Note that only the first 64-bits of a 128-bit count operand are checked to compute the count.
Pre-Shift
| X3 PSRLW, PSRLD, and PSRLQ Instruction Operation Using 64-bit Operand | X2 X2 >> COUNT | X1 X1 >> COUNT | X0 DEST Shift Right with Zero Extension X0 >> COUNT DEST Figure 4-15. |
The (V)PSRLW instruction shifts each of the words in the destination operand to the right by the number of bits specified in the count operand; the (V)PSRLD instruction shifts each of the doublewords in the destination operand; and the PSRLQ instruction shifts the quadword (or quadwords) in the destination operand.
In 64-bit mode, using a REX prefix in the form of REX.R permits this instruction to access additional registers (XMM8-XMM15).
Legacy SSE instructions: The destination operand is an MMX technology register; the count operand can be either an MMX technology register or an 64-bit memory location. 128-bit Legacy SSE version: The destination operand is an XMM register; the count operand can be either an XMM register or a 128-bit memory location, or an 8-bit immediate. If the count operand is a memory address, 128 bits
are loaded but the upper 64 bits are ignored. Bits (VLMAX-1:128) of the corresponding YMM destination register remain unchanged. VEX.128 encoded version: The destination operand is an XMM register; the count operand can be either an XMM register or a 128-bit memory location, or an 8-bit immediate. If the count operand is a memory address, 128 bits are loaded but the upper 64 bits are ignored. Bits (VLMAX-1:128) of the destination YMM register are zeroed.
VEX.256 encoded version: The destination and first source operands are YMM registers. The count operand can be either an YMM register or a 128-bit memory location or an 8-bit immediate.
Note: For shifts with an immediate count (VEX.128.66.0F 71-73 /2), VEX.vvvv encodes the destination register, and VEX.B + ModRM.r/m encodes the source register. VEX.L must be 0, otherwise instructions will #UD.

The Latest: Break up the Dolphins! They've won 2 in a row!
by The Associated PressKANSAS CITY, Mo. - The Latest on Week 10 in the NFL (all times Eastern):
7:15 p.m.
Break up the Dolphins.
Miami was tanking, they said. Didn't want to win a game, they said. Trying to go 0-16, they said.
Ha!
Miami won its second game in a row Sunday, edging the Indianapolis Colts 16-12 thanks to an 11-yard TD run by Ryan Fitzpatrick, three field goals and a late defensive stop.
The Dolphins improved to 2-7.
After getting off to an 0-7 start under rookie head coach Brian Flores, Miami beat the New York Jets 26-18 last week.
___
6:50 p.m.
Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay's attempt at a little trickery backfired but ultimately didn't cost his team.
McVay allowed punter Johnny Hekker to throw a pass with the Rams facing fourth-and-1 at their 29 while trailing the Steelers by a touchdown in the third quarter. Hekker was hit as he threw and the ball fluttered into the hands of Pittsburgh's Trey Edmunds, a running back by trade, for an interception.
Pittsburgh took over at LA's 31 and failed to take advantage of the good field position. The Steelers were pushed back by a holding penalty and a sack by Rams linebacker Clay Matthews, keeping the score at 14-7.
- Will Graves reporting from Pittsburgh.
___
6:35 p.m.
Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri has tied Hall of Famer Morten Andersen for the most field goal attempts in NFL history.
Vinatieri's second of the game against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday raised his career total to 709 tries, equaling Andersen.
Vinatieri has made a record 596. Andersen made 565.
Still, it has been a rough season for Vinatieri, who missed five field goals and six extra points. That includes a botched PAT on Sunday after the Colts took a 12-10 lead in the fourth quarter.
- Michael Marot reporting from Indianapolis.
___
6:20 p.m.
Aaron Donald's Pittsburgh homecoming is off to a quiet start.
The Los Angeles Rams star defensive tackle, who grew up in the city's eastern suburbs and played at the University of Pittsburgh, had just one tackle in the first half as the Rams found themselves trailing the Steelers 14-7.
Pittsburgh's shuffled offensive line kept Donald in check and the Steelers defense shut down the Los Angeles offense. The Rams managed just 132 yards in the opening half. Their only touchdown came on a 25-yard scoop and score by linebacker Dante Fowler on the game's second offensive snap.
Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick scored for the second game in a row when he grabbed Jared Goff's fumble and raced 43 yards for a TD.
___
6:05 p.m.
Stuffed!
On a snowy day, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers could have taken the points, kicked a gimme field goal with 2 seconds left in the first half, and gone to the locker room with a seven-point lead over the visiting Carolina Panthers.
Instead, as the flakes fell, coach Matt LaFleur sent Rodgers and the rest of the offense out to the field for first-and-goal at the 1 after a pass interference call in the end zone on the previous play.
Didn't work out for the Packers.
They tried to run the ball in, but Panthers defensive lineman Gerald McCoy broke through to wrap up Jamaal Williams for a loss.
So Green Bay's lead was just 14-10 at the break.
___
5:30 p.m.
For the first time all season, the Indianapolis Colts are scoreless at halftime.
Probably not a coincidence that they had Brian Hoyer at quarterback.
Hoyer threw two interceptions in the first half - one leading to a Miami field goal, the second leading to Ryan Fitzpatrick's 11-yard run for a TD - and the Dolphins lead the Colts 10-0.
With Jacoby Brissett, T.Y. Hilton and Devin Funchess all sidelined, Indy put up just 109 yards in the first half.
- Michael Marot reporting from Indianapolis.
___
5 p.m.
With Brian Hoyer making his first NFL start in more than two years, the Indianapolis Colts are the 16th club to have used multiple starting QBs this season.
Hoyer stepped in for Jacoby Brissett, out with an injured left knee.
Half of the league - 16 of its 32 teams - have used more than one guy behind center at the get-go of a game.
Hoyer opened Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins and Ryan Fitzpatrick by going 5 of 10 for 86 yards and an interception.
Fitzpatrick, of course, is not the only quarterback to start for Miami this season; Josh Rosen has started for the Dolphins, too.
Earlier Sunday, the Bengals went with Ryan Finley in place of the benched Andy Dalton, while the Lions used Jeff Driskel instead of the injured Matthew Stafford. Both the Bengals and Lions lost.
___
4:25 p.m.
So much for the New Orleans Saints' six-game winning streak.
And so much for the Atlanta Falcons' six-game losing streak.
In a stunner Sunday, Grady Jarrett delivered 2½ of Atlanta's six sacks of Drew Brees - one fewer than the Falcons' defense had managed all season coming in - and Matt Ryan threw for a pair of TDs in a 26-9 win at New Orleans.
New Orleans dropped to 7-2, while Atlanta improved to 2-7.
Here are the other results in Sunday's early games:
- Ravens 49, Bengals 13
- Titans 35, Chiefs 32
- Browns 19, Bills 16
- Bears 20, Lions 13
- Jets 34, Giants 27
- Buccaneers 30, Cardinals 27
___
3:45 p.m.
Patrick Mahomes not only is back for the Chiefs, he's making sure everyone sees just how healthy the NFL's reigning MVP is.
Early in the fourth quarter at Tennessee, he found himself with the pocket collapsing. Mahomes jumped up and threw to Mecole Hardman, who ran with the pass for a 63-yard touchdown and a 29-20 lead for the Chiefs.
Mahomes has 379 yards passing and three touchdowns so far in his return after missing two games with a kneecap injury.
- Teresa M. Walker reporting from Nashville, Tennessee.
___
3:10 p.m.
Lamar Jackson's breakout season now has its signature moment.
The Baltimore Ravens quarterback took off on a videogame-worthy run, replete with a spin move, for a 47-yard TD in the second half against the Bengals.
Defender after defender was left grasping at air as the 2016 Heisman Trophy winner made his way down the field.
Jackson's touchdown increased Baltimore's lead to 35-10 in the road game.
___
3 p.m.
New Orleans receiver Tre'Quan Smith is still in the game for the Saints - somehow.
Smith held onto the ball for a 13-yard gain despite being hit hard enough by Damontae Kazee that his helmet popped off.
It was Smith's first catch since Week 2. He missed five of the previous six games with an ankle injury
- Brett Martel reporting in New Orleans.
___
2:45 p.m.
The most surprising halftime score from the early games? Without a doubt, it's the New Orleans Saints' 13-6 deficit at home against the Atlanta Falcons.
The Saints were winners of six straight and entered 7-1, while the Falcons came into the day on a six-game losing streak and a 1-7 record.
Falcons tight end Austin Hooper has the lone touchdown so far on an 8-yard pass from Matt Ryan. It was Hooper's sixth TD catch this season.
The other scores around the league after two quarters:

The Tennessee Titans are tied with the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes 13-13 at halftime thanks to a big defensive touchdown by Rashaan Evans.
The Chiefs led 10-7 and were driving when rookie linebacker David Long hit Damien Williams for a 3-yard loss and knocked the ball loose.
Titans linebacker Evans, the No. 22 pick overall out of Alabama in 2018, picked up the ball, juked out Mahomes - who went down to the turf - and ran 53 yards for the score.
Chiefs right tackle Mitchell Schwartz went down with 2:46 left in the first half, snapping a streak of 7,894 consecutive snaps played that had been the NFL's longest active streak.

Giants left tackle Nate Solder has been ruled out of their game against the Jets with a concussion, leaving the team without the two tackles who had started every game this season.
Right tackle Mike Remmers was ruled out before the game with a back problem.
The Giants' offensive tackles now are Nick Gates on right side, making his first career start, and Eric Smith on the left side, making his NFL debut.

2 p.m.
Bears linebacker Danny Trevathan has departed Chicago's game against the Detroit Lions with a left elbow injury.
Trevathan ran off the field with his arm dangling by his side after he got hurt while trying to sack Jeff Driskel in the first quarter.
The 29-year-old Trevathan began the day with a team-high 67 tackles. The Bears say his return is questionable.
Nick Kwiatkoski replaced Trevathan at inside linebacker.
- Jay Cohen reporting in Chicago.

1:25 p.m.
Patrick Mahomes was almost picked off on his first throw back with the Kansas City Chiefs. Instead, he picked up right where he left off.
Mahomes got lucky on his first play against Tennessee after missing two games with a knee injury, nearly throwing an interception.
But a replay review showed that Titans safety Kenny Vaccaro trapped the ball, so KC kept possession.
Mahomes then drove the Chiefs 69 yards over 11 plays, capping the series with a shovel pass to Travis Kelce for a 3-yard touchdown and a 7-0 lead over the Titans.
Mahomes, the reigning NFL MVP, began the game 6 of 8 for 57 yards.
- Teresa M. Walker reporting in Nashville, Tennessee.

1:15 p.m.
Kareem Hunt has his first NFL touch in nearly a year following an eight-game suspension.
The troubled Browns running back returned for his first action since Nov. 19 last season, when he was with the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Browns signed the Cleveland native in February.
He was banned for eight games by the league for two physical off-field altercations, including one when he shoved and kicked a woman.
On Cleveland's first possession against Buffalo on Sunday, Hunt caught a short pass from Baker Mayfield for a 7-yard gain.
The 24-year-old Hunt led the league in rushing for Kansas City in 2017.
- Tom Withers reporting in Cleveland.
___
11:55 a.m.
Patrick Mahomes will start for the Kansas City Chiefs at the Tennessee Titans, just over two weeks after the reigning NFL MVP dislocated his kneecap.
There initially was concern that the quarterback could be sidelined for months.
But it turned out there was no structural damage to the knee, and Mahomes never missed a practice.
He missed two games, with Matt Moore starting in his place.
___
11:30 a.m.
Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford has been ruled out for Detroit's game at Chicago because of hip and back issues, stopping his streak of 136 consecutive starts.
The 31-year-old Stafford had been listed as questionable. It's the first time he has missed a regular-season game since the 2010 season.
Jeff Driskel is stepping in for Stafford. Driskel is making his sixth career start.
Stafford is working on another terrific year for Detroit, throwing for 2,499 yards and 19 touchdowns in the first half of the season.
The Bears had been a 2½-point favorite over the Lions, but Chicago was favored by 6½ points Sunday morning after the Stafford news broke.

Salma Mumin exposes colleague female celebrities on “bad” things they do for living
by MyNewsGHActress, Salma Mumin has finally made public the kind of bad things her female celebrity friends do to keep up.
According to her, they do not have the mind she has and therefore they engage in ill stuff to keep up.
Salma who is currently in Turkey has inked a deal with a clothing brand.
The actress also rained curses on people who say bad things about her.
She asked God not to forgive them because of what they say about her.

Collapses a uniform field along a specified axis. Specific planes can be included or excluded from collapsing operation.
Input Ports
Name Type Description in uniform field data to be collapsed planes int[] planes to include or exclude Parameters
Name Type Description UI Control operation enum type of collapsing operation Radiobox axis int axis to collapse along Slider planes int[] planes to include or exclude Slider Output Ports
Name Type Description out_field uniform vector field collapsed output field out_obj GDobject directly renderable output object
The collapse_field and collapse_field_planes macros allow a uniform field to be collapsed along an axis hence generating a new lower dimension field. Parameters are available so that the type of collapsing operation and the planes to include or exclude can be specified. Currently 4 collapsing operations are supported:
- Collapse All
Sum all planes along axis. Ignore any specification of planes.- Slice
Othroslices along the axis at the first plane specified in the planes array.- Collapse Except
Sums all planes except those specified in the planes array.- Collapse Only
Sums only those planes specified in the planes array.The two user macros supplied primarily differ in the number of planes you are able to specify. collapse_field_planes takes an array of planes as an input and hence it is possible to specify any number of planes. collapse_field only allows a single plane to be specified. Although this does reduce the usefulness of the macro it does allow the plane to be specified through the user interface.
The macros only work with uniform fields. The input field coordinates can have 1, 2 or 3 dimensions. If the input is 3D a 2D output field is produced. If the input is 2D or 1D, a 1D output field is produced. The input field node data can have any vector length. Internally the module converts input data to double type and sums each vector component separately. The output field contains node data of double type.
in
Uniform field input containing the data that is to be collapsed. The field should contain a uniform mesh and one component of node data. The uniform mesh should have nspace of 1, 2 or 3. If other node data components are present they will be ignored. The input node data can have any vector length.
planes[]
Integer array containing the planes indices that are to be used in the collapsing operation. Depending upon which operation is chosen these planes will either be included in or excluded from the collapsing summation. Plane indices are numbered from zero.
operation
enum operation { choices = {"collapse", "slice", "collapse_except", "collapse_only"}; };Defines now the input field is collapsed. Currently it is possible to collapse the input field in four different ways:
- "collapse"
Sum all planes along axis. Ignore any specification of planes.- "slice"
Othroslices along the axis at the first plane specified in the planes array.- "collapse_except"
Sums all planes except those specified in the planes array.- "collapse_only"
Sums only those planes specified in the planes array.These operations are presented in the user interface through a radio box. The collapse_field macro does not present the "collapse_only" option as for a single plane the results are identical to those generated by the "slice" option.
axis
Integer parameter that specifies what axis should be collapsed along. Axes are numbered from zero.
planes[]
Integer array containing the planes indices that are to be used in the collapsing operation. The collapse_field macro connects this parameter to a slider in the user interface. The collapse_field_planes macro connects this parameter to the planes input port.
out_field
Output field containing the collapsed data in a uniform vector field. If the input field was 3D this output field will be 2D. If the input field was 2D or 1D this output field will be 1D. The output field will contain the summed node data of the input field. This node data will be of type double and have the same vector length as the input data.
out_obj
The GDobject version of the output, suitable for direct connection to a viewer.
The CollapseFieldFunc functional macro makes use of the low-level module CollapseFieldCore. Both of the user macros, collapse_field and collapse_field_planes, make use of this functional macro. They also make use of the user interface macros, CollapseUI and CollapsePlanesUI. The CollapseParams parameter block is used by all of these modules to connect themselves together.
Two example applications are provided. Both of these applications read in a uniform 3D field and collapse that field into a 2D slice. The CollapseFieldEg application demonstrates how the collapse_field macro can be used to select a single plane. The CollapseFieldPlanesEg application demonstrates how the collapse_field_planes macro can be used to exclude or include 10 planes in the middle of the field.
xp_comm_proj/collapse/clp_mods.v contains the V definitions of the CollapseFieldCore low-level module and the CollapseParams parameter block.
xp_comm_proj/collapse/clp_macs.v contains the V definitions of the User Interface macros CollapseUI and CollapsePlanesUI, the functional macro CollapseFieldFunc, the user macros collapse_field and collapse_field_planes and the example applications CollapseFieldPlanesEg.
The low-level CollapseMods library containing the module does not specify a process. By default the express process will be used.
