class X {
   X () : myID(id) {}
   X (const X& right) : myID(++id) {}
   friend ostream& operator<< (ostream&, const X&);
   static int id;
   int myID;

int X::id = 0;

ostream& operator<< (ostream& os, const X& x) {
   return os<<x.myID;

X f (X x1, X& x2) {
   x1 = x2;
   return x2;
void main () {
   X x1, x2 = x1;
   X x3 = f(x1,x2);

What I don't understand is how the 23. line of program works (3rd line of main() function). I know that it should use a copy constructor, and it does it at first,but after finishing copy constructor function it calls the f function and after that initializes x3 with the returned value of function f. Why does it call function f at all after copy constructor? Isn't it supposed to call only copy constructor?
What i'm trying to say is that I don't understand how copy constructor works when I have a function on the right side... Please help.

Tracer bullets are always useful in a case like this. Consider the following updates:

X (const X& right) : myID(++id) {cerr << "Copied " << id - 1 << endl;}

X f (X x1, X& x2) {
   cerr << "Enter f" << endl;
   x1 = x2;
   cerr << "Exit f" << endl;

You'll notice that there is a copy constructor called twice before you enter the body of the function f. Since the first argument to f is not a pointer or reference you pass in a copy of x1 thus invoking the copy constructor.

Welcome to DaniWeb!

Try commenting line 23 and 24. You should see only the copy constructor called. On line 23, you are calling f(), so of course it will be called!

Also, in the future, please use a descriptive thread title - for this question maybe something like "Copy constructor problem".

You have 3 different instances where the copy constructor is used and 1 instance where you've used the compiler-provided assignment operator. To simplify the code a little and make it easier to read, Let's expand your main() (which by the way, regardless of program size, should have an int return not a void return) so that each declaration is on a different line:

int main () {
  X x1
  X x2 = x1;
  X x3 = f(x1,x2);
  return 0;

The declaration of "x1" uses the default constructor, plain and simple, nothing to discuss here.

The declarations of "x2" and "x3" are both implicit calls to the copy constructor. These declarations account for 2/3 of the uses of the copy constructor. The third use of the copy constructor is when you call f() as part of the declaration of "x3".

The first argument to f() is a pass by value instead of a pass by reference. When you pass an argument to a function by value, a copy of the argument is made and put in the memory assigned to the matching parameter. When f() completes its work and returns, the return value is a temporary variable of type X. Since this is part of the declaration statement for "x3" the copy constructor is now called with the returned temporary as the argument. (If it were not part of the declaration statement, and performed later, it would be an assignment statement.)

commented: It deeply explains how program works. +0

Re-establish Credit After Bankruptcy?

Should you re-establish credit after bankruptcy? NO! Dave explains why.

QUESTION: A listener asks how to re-establish credit after bankruptcy.

ANSWER: Don’t!  Credit is what caused your bankruptcy.  Why would you want to go right back into that?

Get on a written budget, save up and pay for whatever you want from now on.  No more buying on credit.  You don’t need to go buy a car, a house, or anything else right now.  You need to build up your emergency fund and get control of your money over the next couple years.

If someone looks at your credit report and sees that you borrowed again after your bankruptcy, they’ll think you’re an idiot.  One of the best things your credit report can show is no borrowing after your bankruptcy.  Three years down the road that will show a mortgage lender that you learned your lesson.

Don’t re-establish credit after bankruptcy.

Choose Executors Wisely

Choosing a person or persons to be the executor of your estate is not a decision that you should make lightly. Sometimes you might be afraid to appoint just one sibling to be the sole executor because you think it might cause a rift amongst the family. So, you end up appointing all of them to be co-executors thinking it a good idea. However, appointing the people who stand to benefit the most from your estate as executors may not be a very wise move. There are instances where courts have removed all executors because they all had major conflicts of interest which massively delayed the distribution of estate assets. A good example of a major conflict of interest is if an executor actually owes money to the estate.

There are a lot of circumstances to take into consideration when choosing an executor. If you find yourself unsure using an independent executor or professional trustee may be the best course of action.

For more information please consult with a professional Estate Administration Attorney.

Yes Poster

Closed September 9, 2018

There are only a few bands in the history of rock music that exemplify the progressive genre as well as Yes.

Why See Yes?

#YES50 - 50th Anniversary tour!

Yes embark on a brand new tour this year, celebrating 50 years of their signature style of English progressive rock. In the band's incredible five decade history, they have achieved worldwide success with their symphonic style of rock music and become known as one of the pioneers of the progressive genre. This new series of dates sees the band playing some of their most treasured works alongside deep cuts and lost classics.

Known for their lengthy songs, mystical lyrics, elaborate album art, and live stage sets. The band has seen several member changes in its lengthy lifespan - in 2012 the band tours with singer Jon Davison, bassist Chris Squire, guitarist Steve Howe, drummer Alan White, and keyboardist Geoff Downes. In 2017, they received the honor of an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Improving visual searches

LAS CRUCES – According to preliminary research conducted by New Mexico State University’s Vision Sciences and Memory Laboratory, two heads may not always be better than one.

“We’re looking at how working with a teammate affects behavior,” said Michael Hout, assistant professor of psychology and lead investigator on the project. “There are certain aspects of search that might be benefited more from working with a partner, relative to other aspects.”

So far, researchers found it to be beneficial for subjects to work together on exhaustive searches. In other words, if there is a display – like an X-ray – with multiple items to find, working with a partner is better than working alone. However, in terms of finding things very quickly, working in pairs showed less of an advantage.

Consider a Transportation Security Administration screener looking for belongings that make a bag prohibited: It’s best to find one suspicious item on the X-ray as quickly as possible, because the bag will then be removed from the conveyer belt and searched manually for other potentially dangerous items, Hout explained.

“Whereas, with a radiologist, just because you found one tumor doesn’t mean that there’s not a second one there – you don’t have an inclination to search quickly,” he said. “In radiology, you want to search slowly and make sure you don’t miss anything.”

Hout and his team mimic these high-stakes visual search scenarios in the lab to gauge the performances of both independent searchers and search pairs.

For these studies, Hout said, the subject pool typically consists of volunteers from NMSU’s introductory psychology classes, as evidence suggests that the way adult human brains function in terms of information processing changes very little across levels of socioeconomic status or age.

The computer-based experiments allow subjects to tap on a touch-screen monitor to indicate that they’ve found something or that they’ve finished searching. To better understand the volunteer’s visual search paths, the group uses a desktop eye tracker, which photographs a subject’s eyes every millisecond – a thousand times per second.

“We present different objects on a screen, and we have people search for a target object,” said Arryn Robbins, a doctoral student in Hout’s lab. “The eye tracker gives us information on where people look.”

The tool adds a lot of flexibility and strength to data, Hout explained.

“We can make much more advanced hypotheses about what people are doing when they look for things in their environment,” he said.

Like many aspects of cognition, or methods the brain uses to acquire information, visual searches are often conducted so effortlessly that the ability can be taken for granted.

“You don’t really think about it when you go looking for your keys in the morning, or your wallet, or whatever the case may be,” Hout said. “There’s actually a whole lot of information processing going on, outside of conscious awareness; that’s the sort of thing that we study here – the machinery that’s going on when you’re doing these kinds of tasks.”

Currently, Hout and a collaborator from Louisiana State University’s Department of Psychology, Megan Papesh, have a grant proposal in review by the TSA detailing the lab’s preliminary visual search findings and suggesting new methods for creating an automated training procedure for TSA screeners.

“There’s a good bit of research that suggests people who are experts in particular tasks exhibit different eye movements than non-experts,” Hout said.

For instance, the scan paths of practiced visual searchers may exhibit calmer and more measured eye movements than newer professionals, whose visual scans appear much more erratic.

By assembling the eye movements of experts and novices across visual search tasks using portable eye trackers, Hout’s team plans to create a training tool to help professional visual searchers improve their search abilities.

While the realm of high-stakes visual search has been broadly studied, there hasn’t been much research on improvement strategies for low-stakes searches, Hout explained. So, for now, for those who can’t find their keys in the morning, consider checking your hands to see if you’re already holding them.

For more information on NMSU’s Vision Sciences and Memory Laboratory, visit

Robbins and Hout co-authored an article for Scientific American Mind last year on the history and applications of eye tracking technology. A preview to the article can be viewed here:

Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro Delivers Weekly Democratic Address

Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut, Co-Chair of the Democratic Steering and Policy Committee, delivered the Weekly Democratic Address.  In this week’s address, DeLauro condemned House Republicans’ tax bill that would raise taxes on middle class families, while handing a multi-trillion dollar giveaway in tax cuts to the wealthiest and corporate America.  Video and audio of the Weekly Democratic Address can be downloaded here.

Below is a full transcript of the address:

“Hello, I am Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, from the Third District of Connecticut.

“The biggest economic challenge of our time is that so many people who play by the rules are in jobs that do not pay enough to live on.  Wages are not keeping up with rising costs – for health care, child care, and housing – and too many families struggle to make ends meet, let alone put money in a college fund or go on vacation.

“Meanwhile, big corporations, millionaires, and billionaires write the rules to make government work for them – and Republicans are their comrades in arms in rigging the game against the middle class.  Enough is enough.

“As Democrats, we will work for an economy that works for all, not just the very rich.  We need to create good paying jobs that cannot be outsourced – lower the cost of living for families by cracking down on corporate monopolies – and build an economy that enables more and more people to reach the middle class.

“That is the America I believe in – and the one Democrats are fighting for.

“Unfortunately, Republicans want to take our country further and further from this goal.  On Thursday, they released their tax cut proposal – and frankly, it is a giveaway to corporations, millionaires, and billionaires.  It leaves behind working people and the middle class.  And worse, it will encourage companies who outsource American jobs.  Congress must put middle class families and jobs before corporations that have not been loyal to their employees and to our country.

“The tax plan released by President Trump and Congressional Republicans is not real tax reform.  Instead, it cuts taxes for the wealthiest Americans and raises taxes on middle class families.

“It slashes the tax rate for corporations, repeals the estate tax, and encourages multinational corporations to shift profits and jobs overseas.  It also rewards those corporations that have outsourced jobs by allowing them to skip paying taxes on profits earned through their outsourcing.

“When jobs are outsourced, it drives down wages and salaries here.  The Republican plan is wrong – this plan encourages corporate excess at the expense of the middle class, who work hard and who have played by the rules their entire lives.

“The Republican plan repeals the estate tax, giving America’s wealthiest families over $171 billion in tax cuts.  That is the same cost as the entire Pell grant program for nearly 5 years, which helps over 7 million low income college students every year.  Where are our priorities?

“Instead of giving $1.5 trillion in tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans and corporations, we should be investing in the future of our country by rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure, expanding access to early childhood education, and equipping workers with the skills they need through job training and apprenticeship programs.

“Where are the Republicans’ values?  Where is this administration’s commitment to the ‘forgotten men and women of our country?’  They promised no more politics as usual, and this is a slap in the face that leaves people feeling betrayed.  We need a tax policy that works for the middle class.

“Turning to the Child Tax Credit, the Republican proposal leaves behind vulnerable families – shutting out military families, rural families, large families, minimum wage earners, and those with the youngest children.  Under the Republican tax plan, many families will not earn enough to benefit from the larger child tax credit.  And Republicans have raised the income limit on the credit to an amount that will make Members of Congress eligible – while low income families are excluded.  This is unacceptable.

“I came to Washington to fight for the hardworking people I represent – not those with the most lobbyists.  It is time for a better deal for Americans – one that prioritizes job creation, rising incomes, and a 21st century economy that levels the playing field for them.  We must reject this misguided Republican proposal, and work to implement public policies that understand people’s lives and the need for a big change in our country’s direction.  Thank you.”

Defining your purpose and inspiring others

The desire to create is inherent in our biology. Throughout the course of our lives we create in many ways. But the biological urge to give life to the world goes deeper in our brains than we can imagine. Whether it is creating a baby, a painting, or business proposal, they are all variations of this biological tendency for creation. The only difference is how, and what we create. This is why we get so attached and deeply connected to what we create. We have a word for this connection - it is called love.

Not all of us have the same desire to create in the same way. We all differ in our creativity, and that is what makes each of us unique. That is why there are so many wonderful career paths to choose from, it can sometimes be overwhelming to decide on one, or even the direction you want to go in your chosen field. Some of us are better at painting, and others are creative with cooking food. This does not mean we cannot learn those creative methods; it means we should try different ways to be creative until we discover the one that just feels right to us. When we discover the right method of creativity for ourselves, it no longer is work. It brings us joy.

My aunt, for example, was a nurse for many many years, and she has never once described herself as creative. But, she is, in a much different way. As a nurse, she created comfort in the lives of others when they needed it most. Not only did this bring care to her patients, it brought joy and fulfillment to my aunt. This joy for her could be found in being a nurse, that is why she was good at being one and was passionate about nursing.

I have become very passionate about what I create and there is intense meaning in what I do. Because life experiences have shaped my perspective, I see the world a bit differently than some. The world, through my eyes, is beautiful and filled with stories. A day is like a string. When we wake up and pull on that string, a new string is created off of the main one; and each pull or vibration of the string is a moment. Some vibrations are more beautiful and brighter than others. The brighter the vibration, the more beautiful the moment on the string, and the desire to tell the story of that moment intensifies for me. Some strings are so bright and beautiful it would be inexcusable to not tell it's story. I am compelled to tell it, for it would be wrong to let those moments go unseen to others because of their beauty.

I share these stories in the different artwork I create. My Wild Flora collection was inspired by a moment with my daughter. I can see the moment clearly in my mind. She was sitting and picking flowers in her grandmother's garden, and had piggy tails in her hair. The sun was shining softly on her little face as she collected the flowers. This moment was such a pretty story, that I felt compelled to share it with others in a way we can all appreciate and relate. I used patterning to give the story to others to express their own creativity with the pattern whether on fabric, or other raw materials of expression. This is the heart of where I want my business to lead, and why I am the artist I have grown into today. I am drawn to patterning, because not only do my patterns tell a story in a different way, they empower the creative expression of others. My founding purpose is to empower others to share their own creativity.

Creation is beautiful to us because of our biology and the built in desire to create. It is in everything we do; is a reflection of what we believe; and our desire to belong to one another. We adore creating and pursue it so fervently it can be seen in the things we purchase, the clothing we wear, and the career paths we choose. Our career choices are just different ways of how we want to connect to each other that reflects who we are.

This post was inspired by someone who has encouraged me to talk about why I am a designer. Jamie Starcevich from Spruce Rd is an incredible brand designer, and she shared with me the importance of inspiring others, but also understanding your purpose and doing what you love.

Mr. Bradley says pupils will help clean Derry air

Rosemount Primary School headmaster Paul Bradley hopes his pupils’ participation in a major initiative to discourage car use and get more children cycling and walking to school will lead to cleaner air and better public health in Derry over future generations.

Pupils from the school are this week taking part in the sustainable transport charity Sustrans’ ‘Big Pedal 2018’ (April 23 to May 4), which is aimed at encouraging more and more young people to cycle, walk and scoot to school.

Mr. Bradley said: “We’re doing our bit to encourage our students to travel by bike or foot by promoting the importance of an active lifestyle in our morning assemblies and through events like the ‘Big Pedal’.

“In doing so, we hope our pupils will ditch their cars in favour of a more active commute - helping to reduce the number of vehicles outside the school gates and improve the air quality in the area.

“This year we held a walk to school day in March which proved very successful.

“During the day 300 pupils (almost 85 per cent of the school population) took part and made the effort to walk to school from a variety of locations across Derry.

“We also closed part of the car park as part of Sustrans’ new ‘Feet First Families’ initiative to highlight how much extra space the children could have for play areas if less parents travelled by car.

“It has definitely had an impact and has made the kids more aware of the benefits to their health and the environment.”

LOS ANGELES — Pat Haden hasn’t had much luck hiring coaches at USC. Ask any Trojans football or basketball fan about that.

However, he has become an expert at firing. Too bad Donald Trump no longer has a reality show.

Some people still erroneously think Haden is to blame for hiring Lane Kiffin and then setting him loose with his plastic play sheet. Kiffin was the last hiring act of former athletic director Mike Garrett.

Haden wasn’t afraid to finish Kiffin off, though, jettisoning him not far from where the jets land at LAX after a lopsided loss.

If that seems like only yesterday, well, it almost was. It was 2013.

Monday, under entirely different circumstances, Haden terminated Kiffin’s successor, Steve Sarkisian, another Pete Carroll protege.

It was not Haden’s fault that Sarkisian turned out to have a very serious personal issue. Yes, Haden could have more vigorously vetted the coach’s behavior while Sarkisian was the coach at Washington, but nothing in any court document precluded the hire.

Jim Harbaugh and Gary Pinkel survived very public drunken-driving charges to become very successful major college coaches.

Drinking doesn’t have to interfere with good coaching. Bear Bryant was a drinker and won six national titles at Alabama.

USC’s greatest coach, John McKay, held daily court at Julie’s, an establishment near the campus. He was joined between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. on most weeknights by members of the coaching staff and local sportswriters.

“McKay was a moderate drinker,” said John Hall, a former Los Angeles Times columnist who attended many pub sessions with McKay.

Sarkisian’s problem was different because it could not be controlled or contained. And that necessitated Monday’s move.

So, two years after the Kiffin fiasco, USC finds itself looking for a new coach before Halloween.

Many of the questions then are the questions now: Where does USC turn?

Starting a search this early is problematic, as many potential candidates are locked in with teams, some with multiple-year contracts.

The same old names continue to be the same old names: Mack Brown, Mike Bellotti, Jon Gruden — you know the drill.

One thing seems clear: USC needs to break, once and forever, from the Carroll era.

A major problem with the Sarkisian hire was that he was seen as a knockoff of Kiffin. The two served as co-offensive coordinators during the Carroll heydays.

USC needs a clean start.

Chip Kelly raises Twitter noise and might sound like a good idea if the Philadelphia Eagles collapse in the coming weeks. But Kelly is also said to love the NFL, and one reason he left Oregon was he didn’t like dealing with boosters.

Some people good at reading the Pac-12 Conference standings from top to bottom have suggested Utah’s Kyle Whittingham.

Everyone loves a winner, right? It’s also no secret Whittingham has had issues with Utah Athletic Director Chris Hill.

Let’s set this bar: If Utah goes undefeated and wins the national title, USC should definitely give him a call.

Topping my list this very second would be Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin, a guy many Trojans fans wanted instead of Sarkisian.

Sumlin is a tremendous recruiter and has Texas A&M off to another 5-0 start. The problem is, Texas A&M started 5-0 last year and finished 8-5.

Sumlin could become more attractive should Texas A&M defeat Alabama this weekend in College Station.

Alabama won last year’s game, in Tuscaloosa, 59-0.

If USC wants to go an NFL retread, as it did with Carroll, it should look at Greg Schiano. He’s tanned and rested after his firing from the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

To those who want to knock Schiano, consider this: The guy won at Rutgers.

Another NFL possibility could by New England offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels. He could follow in the career path of Bill O’Brien, a former New England Patriots assistant who did a terrific job at scandal-infested Penn State before returning to the NFL to coach in Houston.

You want a real wild card?

Pick up the phone and call UCLA coach Jim Mora.

He’s 3-0 against USC. You know what they say: If you can’t beat them, hire him.

Mora is a longshot but might be more interested than you think. UCLA is a great school, but it’s also a public institution where everything is a fiscal fight.

Mora has had to leverage job offers to get pay raises for his assistants and to get the school moving on long-needed facilities improvements.

USC, a private school, can write big checks for those sorts of things. Mora is also a proven winner in town.

He’ll probably say no, but what does USC have to lose other than more credibility, and more games?

Mari Yamaguchi, Associated Press
In this Thursday, May 12, 2016 photo, Michiko Kodama, 78, a survivor of the Hiroshima atomic bombing, speaks during an interview at an office of a survivors' organization in Tokyo. A flash in the sky over Hiroshima, Japan, in 1945 caused a lifetime of ordeal for an elementary school student Michiko Kodama. For her World War II will not be over until a nuclear-free world is achieved and President Barack Obamaâ€™s visit to Hiroshima on Friday is "just a step in the process."

TOKYO — Two very different visions of the hell that is war are seared into the minds of World War II survivors on opposite sides of the Pacific.

Michiko Kodama saw a flash in the sky from her elementary school classroom on Aug. 6, 1945, before the ceiling fell and shards of glass from blown-out windows slashed her. Now 78, she has never forgotten the living hell she saw from the back of her father, who dug her out after a U.S. military plane dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima, Japan.

People were walking like zombies, with their flesh scraped and severely burned, asking for help, for water. A little girl looked up, straight into Michiko's eyes, and collapsed.

Lester Tenney saw Japanese soldiers killing fellow American captives on the infamous Bataan Death March in the Philippines in 1942. "If you didn't walk fast enough, you were killed. If you didn't say the right words you were killed, and if you were killed, you were either shot to death, bayonetted, or decapitated," the 95-year-old veteran said. He still has the bamboo stick Japanese soldiers used to beat him across the face.

Different experiences, different memories are handed down, spread by the media and taught in school. Collectively, they shape the differing reactions in the United States and Japan to Barack Obama's decision to become the first sitting American president to visit the memorial to atomic bomb victims in Hiroshima later this week.

The U.S. dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki three days after Hiroshima, and Japan surrendered six days later, bringing to an end a bloody conflict that the U.S. was drawn into after Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941.

Japan identifies mostly as "a victim rather than a victimizer," Stephen Nagy, an international relations professor at the International Christian University in Tokyo, said. "I think that represents Japan's regional role and its regional identity, whereas the United States has a global identity, a global agenda and global presence. So when it views the bombing of Hiroshima, Nagasaki, it's in the terms of a global narrative, a global conflict the United States was fighting for freedom or to liberate countries from fascism or imperialism. To make these ends meet is very difficult."

A poll last year by the Pew Research Center found that 56 percent of Americans believe the use of nuclear weapons was justified, while 34 percent do not. In Japan, 79 percent said the bombs were unjustified, and only 14 percent said they were.

Terumi Tanaka, an 84-year-old survivor of the Nagasaki bombing, said of Obama: "I hope he will give an apology to the atomic bomb survivors, not necessarily to the general public. There are many who are still suffering. I would like him to meet them and tell them that he is sorry about the past action, and that he will do the best for them."

The White House has clearly ruled out an apology, which would inflame many U.S. veterans and others, and said that Obama would not revisit the decision to drop the bombs.

"A lot of these people are telling us we shouldn't have dropped the bomb — hey, what they talking about?" said Arthur Ishimoto, a veteran of the Military Intelligence Service, a U.S. Army unit made up of mostly Japanese-Americans who interrogated prisoners, translated intercepted messages and went behind enemy lines to gather intelligence.

Now 93, he said it's good for Obama to visit Hiroshima to "bury the hatchet," but there's nothing to apologize for. Ishimoto, who was born in Honolulu and rose to be an Army major general and commander of the Hawaii National Guard, believes he would have been killed in an invasion of Japan if Japan had not surrendered.

"It would have been terrible," he said. "There is going to be controversy about apologizing. I don't think there should be any apology. ... We helped that country. We helped them out of the pits all the way back to one of the most economically advanced. There's no apology required."

Beyond the deaths — the atomic bombs killed 140,000 people in Hiroshima and 73,000 in Nagasaki by the end of 1945 — the effects of radiation have lingered with survivors, both physically and mentally.

Kodama, the Hiroshima schoolgirl, faced discrimination in employment and marriage. After her first love failed because her boyfriend's family said they didn't want "radiated people's blood in their family," she married into a more understanding one.

The younger of her two daughters died of cancer in 2011. Some say she shouldn't have given birth, even though multi-generational radiation effects have not been proven.

Obama doesn't have to apologize, Kodama said, but he should take concrete actions to keep his promise to seek a nuclear-free world.

"For me, the war is not over until the day I see a world without nuclear weapons." she said. "Mr. Obama's Hiroshima visit is only a step in the process."

Nagasaki survivor Tanaka views the atomic bombings as a crime against humanity. A promise by Obama to survivors to do all he can for nuclear disarmament "would mean an apology to us," he said.

He added that his own government also should take some of the blame for the suffering of atomic bomb victims. "It was the Japanese government that started the war to begin with, and delayed the surrender," he said, adding that Japan has not fully faced up to its role in the war.

Japan did issue apologies in various forms in the 1980s and 1990s, but some conservative politicians in recent years have raised questions about them, said Sven Saaler, a historian at Sophia University in Tokyo.

"In particular right now when Japan has a government that is ... backpedaling in terms of apologizing for the war, if now the U.S. apologized, that also would be, I think, a weird signal in this current situation," Saaler said.

Tenney, one of only three remaining POWs from the Bataan Death March, wants Obama in Hiroshima to remember all those who suffered in the war, not just the atomic bomb victims.

"From my point of view, the fact that the war ended when it did and the way it did, it saved my life and it saved the life of those Americans and other allied POWs that were in Japan at the time," he said at his home in in Carlsbad, California. "I was in Japan, shoveling coal in a coal mine. No one ever apologized for that. ... I end up with black lung disease because they didn't take care of me in the coal mine, and yet there is no apology, no words of wisdom, no nothing."

Obama's visit is firmly supported by Earl Wineck, who scanned the skies over Alaska for Japanese warplanes during World War II.

"He's not going there like some of them might, and keep reminding them of all their transgressions," the 88-year-old veteran of the Alaska Territorial Guard said. "That should have ended after the war, and I think a lot of it did, but of course, there's always people who feel resentment."

Japan occupied two Alaskan islands during the war. The battle to retake one of them, Attu Island, cost about 3,000 lives on both sides.

"We hated them," Wineck said "But things change, people change, and I think people in the world should be closer together."

How so?

One Tokyo high school student has a suggestion. Mayu Uchida, who said she cried when she heard survivors recount their memories on a school trip to Hiroshima, wants Obama to bring home what he learns and tell any supporters of nuclear weapons how horrifying they are.

"He could also suggest, promoting opportunities for more Americans to visit Hiroshima, or to hear the story of Hiroshima," the 18-year-old said. "It will be even better if those opportunities are available for younger generations like us."

Watson reported from Carlsbad, California. Associated Press writers Audrey McAvoy in Honolulu, Mark Thiessen in Anchorage, Alaska, and Ken Moritsugu in Tokyo also contributed to this report.

Marc Sanders, M.D., F.A.C.S.

Super Doctors Logo

Dr. Marc Sanders is a recognized leader in cataract and refractive surgery. Among the first surgeons to perform laser vision correction over fifteen years ago, Dr. Sanders has stayed at the forefront of this rapidly changing field. He was one of the first surgeons to offer new techniques, such as femtosecond all-laser LASIK, custom wavefront optimized LASIK, refractive lens exchange, laser-assisted cataract surgery with the LenSx and Catalys lasers, and presbyopic intraocular lenses. Dr. Sanders is a part-time professor at Baylor College of Medicine where he teaches surgeons in training. Committed to education and research, Dr. Sanders has published articles in the leading ophthalmic journals and has participated in clinical trials.

It should come as no surprise that many physicians and surgeons in the Houston area have chosen Dr. Sanders to perform their own eye surgery. The fact that these doctors have inside knowledge of the abilities of all eye surgeons in the area is a testament to Dr. Sanders’ surgical skill. Dr. Sanders has also operated on a variety of local and national celebrities, and he ranks as one of the top doctors in various surveys, including H-Texas Magazine, Houstonia, and others.

Dr. Sanders is committed to using the best technology available. That is why he outfitted his new laser suite with the WaveLight® FS200 Femtosecond Laser and the WaveLight® Allegretto Wave® Eye-Q Excimer Laser. With this new state of the art facility, he can accommodate his patients right in his office. The center not only has the newest lasers but was designed from the ground up to provide patients with the best experience possible.

Dr. Sanders is a magna cum laude graduate of Duke University and was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa honor society. He graduated from Baylor College of Medicine, where he now holds a faculty position. He is board certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology and is a member of both the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery.

Was Our Article on the SSM Hospital Beat Down 'Fair and Unbiased'?

An inquiry from a reader inspires further investigation and the results are shocking.

The following email came in from a email address; I am not going to reveal the person's name:

To the editor,

I work with internal communications at a company lauded for excellence in diversity and write about our ERGs and diversity practices. I rely on DiversityInc for news, best practices and webinars that support diversity in the work force and in the community.

I am shocked, however, at the increased amount of biased news articles I'm reading. Maybe I've not been combing through the articles carefully enough; maybe I have a misplaced expectation for DiversityInc to provide balanced and unbiased reporting.

Here is an example from excerpts of a story posted on your site written by Keka Araujo about a horrible altercation at a hospital.

Albert Watkins, Allen's attorney, had some choice words to say concerning the attack:

"This was 220 pounds of white daytime TV muscle on top of her …You have a security guard

with an IQ well below room temperature taking it upon himself to see that 'justice' is

done to a 90-pound patient in distress."

The last paragraph:

Basically, the hospital glossed over their responsibility of hiring

an incompetent good old boy who allegedly assaulted one of their patients

and then adding insult to injury by filing charges against her. Got it.

Two things strike me – the article did not sufficiently explore both sides of the story; though it appeared there was just a press release from the hospital, there were no witness statements and the video doesn't show the full progression of the altercation.

Secondly, if the security guard had been an African American, the quote by the attorney and the author's last paragraph would be considered grossly prejudicial. Both the attorney and the reporter would, by today's standards, be vilified for being alarmingly inappropriate in their comments.

Diversity means equality and opportunity for ALL people, not free reign to slam any particular minority nor (in this article) the white community.

I'd like to think that I can expect proper, balanced reporting with DiversityInc news. This type of reporting is unacceptable.

Dear Ms. (redacted),

Thank you for your email.

I am responsible for all content on my website. I watched the video before I approved the article being written, I stand by my editor, the journalist who reports to her and the finished product. In my opinion, Keka's last paragraph summed it up perfectly.

"Bias" is an interesting adjective to assert in this situation. My bias is different than that hospital's CEO; I would have fired that guard, apologized to the victim and the community, and carefully considered firing the rest of the security guards and whoever was responsible for supervising them.

I'd be biased to assume that this wasn't the first time this "security guard" beat up a woman one-third his size — and that the monster's coworkers knew about the sadist and did nothing.

My hunch is the hospital CEO got "advice" from the white lawyer on her 93 percent white leadership team that doesn't have a single Black person, despite St. Louis being 49.2 percent Black (the majority demographic). Let's see, majority Black city, 93 percent white/0 percent Black hospital leadership team (72 percent male, in an industry dominated by women). Some might call that "bias." I call it racism — and sexism.

As far as race and coverage, we endeavor to cover news "from a colorful perspective" and I think we do. I am quite sure SSM could use a lot of help in getting a better perspective and St. Louis would be better served if they did.

Best regards,

Luke Visconti, CEO

The Conversation (6)
votetocorrect20 Oct, 2018

That was a serious beat down and the security guard needs to stand trial for feloneny battery!

Dawn19 Oct, 2018

Thank you for backing the story written by Keka Araujo. Too often people are afraid to tell it like it is. I am grateful that you and DiversityInc are not.

Sheri19 Oct, 2018

Thank you Mr. Visconti. I read your content daily and I appreciate you shining the light on racial injustices that plague our country.

Dee Dankus18 Oct, 2018

Mr. Visconti, you are not incorrect in your overall assessment of this incident, but DePaul Hospital is not in St. Louis City, which I suspect your demographic information is based on (i.e. St. Louis County has different demographics, though the other numbers you quote, if accurate, are still appalling). Your publication provides a necessary service, but "colorful perspective" still needs to be accurate.

Jim Acosta's Alleged 'Assault' of White House Intern Debated on 'The View'

"When you look at the clip, is that inappropriate touching? We know when someone is accused of assault, that's a very loaded word," said Whoopi Goldberg.

Kavanaugh vs. Ford

A tale of a complete lack of diversity causing bad decisions, and shifting opinions nationwide, as well as a teachable moment for corporate America.

Having zero diversity, and by trying to make it "Kavanaugh vs. Ford," the old, white Republican men lost control of the nomination, and made it about them versus all women, a situation that, at best, will be a Pyrrhic victory.

Trump Continues to Disparage Women and Mocks #MeToo

His campaign tactic of offending others rallies his base.

At his Great Falls, Mont., rally yesterday, President Trump doled out insults to Rep. Maxine Waters, Sen.

World Map Suggestion

Thursday 18th September 2008, 5:20 GMT
There should be a Carribean region, split the Eastern US into the Northeastern US and the "South." The easterly part of the Western USA should be split off into the great plains.

Afghanistan could have it's top cut off, and given to Ural. Otherwise Ural looks a bit awkward.

Wednesday 24th September 2008, 23:08 GMT
Hi Ryacko,

I've been thinking about your suggestions, and the seem fair enough... but will need to get some more feedback from some of the other players.

For some background though, the map uses the same layout as the game "Risk", which presumably used quite a bit of research to create... so any changes would need to be for the right reasons.

Something to consider is why make the change... is it for game play or political reasons?

For example, is creating a Caribbean region going to help game play... my first thought is that it will slow down the game when moving to North/South America (I tend to use the Eastern edge of America to move from Greenland to South America).

  1. Wow, this game has been around for a long time. I dusted off an old Pictionary game I hadn't played in .. decades .. and the game is apparently made in 1984. Indeed, we decided the word 'blowpipe' was a dated term since none of us knew what it was.

    Was a fun game. It see-sawed a lot. At first we were winning, then the other team somehow got a very comfortable lead, and then somehow we rallied and wittled it down until we were both on the final AP square, duking it out for the glory of victory. Shoot, I don't remember what the last all play was. Oh yes, 'picnic'. Some notable drawings for our team were 'tuning fork' (probably about 7 or 8 seconds) 'up' (about one or two seconds); and then the word was either 'launch' 'take off' or 'lift off' which I guessed in about 5 seconds (that was a real fluke). A fail on our team was when I failed to guess 'Jupiter' (my teammate did not make a textbook diagram of the solar system) still, when cosmos, sun, astronomy, astrology, stars, heavens, celestial and slew of other words did not get me anywhere, I should have thought to start naming planets.

    Oh, and then there was an all play on 'fortune cookie'. I used about half the booklet of paper on that one (I was drawing). That was pretty ridiculous, but fun. I was actually kind of surprised the opposing team didn't get it before we did, because my partner was really dropping the ball on that one. It took about 4 minutes to establish "chinese food". After that, I drew a fortune cookie on a plate... and she somehow got it. I'm half tempted to upload a sequence of drawings for it. The other one we got that was really hard was 'illusion' (I used the other half of the book on that one). I heard the opposing team guess "mirage" about 20 seconds in and I was like "wtf, how they get that far already?" (I don't know how to draw a desert). Finally my partner guessed optical illusion after an endless series of a stick figure looking at an "oasis" (a lake and then later a palm tree added) and then looking at even ground... I redrew this over and over and over and over... but the guessing was very slow to get anywhere.

    Driving home just now there was a car accident near where I live (a somewhat dangerous intersection that I never stop at). There were a bunch of police cars and about 3 or 4 different cars involved (but I could only see one that was badly damaged). tsk tsk...

      I've gotten really good at pictionary, although we don't use the board game, we just have a stopwatch, and hat filled with small pieces of paper with verbs and adjectives and concepts on them. In fact, you can google that and get free printouts.

      The best way to win in pictionary is to understand how to lead your guesser into saying the word you want them to say, and drawing specific details on your drawing to direct them to what part of your drawing should be focused on.

      Say your word is running shoes. If you draw the shape of a shoe for example, your guesser will probably say "shoe, sneaker, slipper, sock, boot" at this point you've already got them to say half of word, so just quit drawing it and start drawing a stick figure in a running motion to the left of it. Your guesser will get it right away.

      You can give me some of the hardest words you can think of and I can draw them. One time I had the word "Orphanage"

      I started by drawing a stick figure, then another stick figure next to it wearing a dress. At this point my guesser is guessing "Love, date, husband and wife, mom and dad?" so I continue the drawing by drawing a smaller stick figure next to it. "Parents? Family?"

      I've gotten my guesser to say parents, so I circle the parents and draw a slash to indicate that the parents are gone. "lost child? abandoned? babysitter? no parents... orphan?" Then after I've gotten them to say orphan, I begin drawing a house around the child stick figure. "foster home! oh! ORPHANAGE!"

      I got a lot of practice from playing Draw My Thing which is a cool online flash game similar to pictionary. Another related game is Drawception.

      wonderful post, 40oz. Just the kind of post I was looking for. :)

      We drew some really tough words last night. I'm trying to see if i can remember what they were. One was 'shapely' and both drawers agreed to skip it. Thinking about it now, tho, it wouldn't be so hard to get people to guess it. The problem I find in Pictionary is that people's minds go blank under pressure and can only think of a handful of adjectives for "fat" and so not sure that either team would have gotten around to shapely after "fat, corpulent, obese, more to love, voluptuous, stocky" etc. , but who knows... There were much harder words but I can't think of them at the moment. BTW, how many minutes do you set your stop watch to? Maybe I'll propose playing pictionary on chat roulette sometime. :D

      EDIT: playing draw my thing right now. Lot of cheaters on there.. oh well.

  1. I didn't originally plan on seeing them, however my brother was getting a pin put in his leg, so I got his ticket. I went with his friend to whom had a ticket as well.

    All ages shows suck, no booze, stupid kids, their fucking dumb parents, and jail bait city. Fucking leave me alone 13 yr old girl, go home and play with Barbie. At the age of 20, the lowest I'd go is 17, 16 if she were exceptionally hot.

    As usual, the openers suck. But these ones were super dogshit, dogshit beyond dogshit. We had timed our arrival perfectly, Death by Stereo were just finished their set on our arrival.

    An amusing thing to note about Death By Stereo, my brother's friend used to work with this chick that got gangbanged by the band, so she'd get free tickets and give him some.

    Anyways, after suckness that was Death By Stereo, the suckage known as Saosin went up on stage. There was this nice moment of silence after they played their played song.

    "FUCKIN SUCK!" I shouted, all the way from the back of the Commodore Ballroom. The frontman remained his composure and began laughing. I'm glad he finds humor in the fact that he sucks giant horse cock. The kids there don't know any better and cheer his dumbfucking ass on anyways. Horrible songs, faggotty vocals, it was horrendous.

    A gentleman who beared the words Reign in Blood on his back, came over for some small talk, about the crap we had the pleasure of viewing. The sight of his girfriend momentarily put me in a state of animal lust.

    Finally Avenged hits the stage and rips shit up. They didn't play anything off of their 1st album though. The moshpit was fierce, I'll be sore for a few days. There was 4 tall, well built guys that threw people around pretty good.

    I got hit in the head twice, once in the face, my body is covered bruises. There was this stupid kid in the pit with a spiky bracelet, and ones that'd just punch everybody. Some of the younger kids were pounding the shit out of the kids younger than them, it was kinda fucked up.

    I got bloody scratches on my neck from this little cocksucker's spiky bracelet. Were he taller or hit any higher I would've lost a fucking eye. He couldn't have been older than 17, and I was too blinded with rage to care.

    I flew into this giant dude and he pushed me and I went flying. Heading on a collision course with me was the little shithead. I whaled him in the stomach just as we crashed into each other.

    Me and two other dudes pulled him up off ground and he left the pit.

    Something to note about Avenged, the vocalist Shadows, apparently blew a major blood vessel from screaming. Because of this, he couldn't scream anymore, and had to actually learn how to sing. Which gave way to a more commercially digestable album.

    It's quite an excuse to take the band in a new direction. If you ask me, I bet he didn't even really fuck up his voice. I liked their second album alot, and the appeal of the 3rd album is Bat Country. Which is about the late great, Hunter S Thompson.

    It was fun times. Children of Bodom plays here in two days, I don't think I'll be back in moshing condition by then. Trivium and Amon Amarth are opening, so it might be good all the way through.

    1. spank

      CoB and Trivium, awesome!

Original electronic
Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.

According to the Diabetes Research and Wellness Foundation, there are over 3.2 million people who suffer with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Diabetes increases the risks of many oral health problems and higher percentage of these people are vulnerable to tooth loss. Dental implant in Sydney is the one treatment that restores your missing teeth by upholding the integrity of your smile. Getting dental implants can restore your oral health and preserves the health of the adjacent teeth.  But unfortunately, not all patients are good candidates for receiving dental implants. There is a common misconception that diabetic patients are unfit for undergoing dental implants treatment. But now, it’s found that there is no difference in the final success rate of dental implant procedures for diabetic and non-diabetic patients.

Slow Recovery Time

Slow recovery time is the only issue on the diabetic patient who wish to get dental implants. Once the dental implants are placed on the jaw of a patient, the surrounding bone tissues start to grow and fuse around the implants to form a strong, stable and durable platform to hold the implants in place. The average time taken for this fusion process is 6 weeks in non-diabetic patients, in an average. But when it comes to diabetic patients, the time taken for accomplishing this bone fusion is pretty longer and is more than 12 months. However, this time period differs from patient to patient based on their food and lifestyle habits. But, with proper oral care and routine monitoring, diabetic people can speed up their healing process and enjoy a natural smile.

Dental Patients with Poorly Controlled Diabetes

The dental implant success rate of patients with poorly controlled diabetes is lesser than that of patients with controlled diabetes. Moreover, the high glucose level in the blood leads to several signs of gum diseases which in turn affect the survival rate of implants. Dental implants made on patients with controlled blood sugar levels have a high success rate of 95% which is similar to a non-diabetic person.

Still, many diabetic patients are hesitant to opt for dental implants to replace their missed teeth, worrying implant failure chances are greater than for non-diabetics. They often fail to notice that diabetic patients can also enjoy high success rate and involves only minor risks like slow wound healing, infection, and alter the body’s inflammatory response. Under controlled medication, diet and exercise, a diabetic patient can increase the success rate of Sydney dental implants to 95%. These people can get a favourable result and an attractive smile by taking a little extra wound care and undergoing special considerations to guard against infection after an implant surgery. So why wait? Schedule an appointment with your dentist to talk about your considerations and treatment options to get a wide smile that never fades.

Undersown crops

Frugal and robust

The mix is suitable as an undersow crop in maize as it can form good turf and despite this does not interfere with the growth of the maize. This undersow crop develops slowly as a seedling and the growth is not too strong. The maize is not negatively influenced by either dry or wet conditions; in dry conditions a water-saving soil cover is formed, which protects against evaporation. Even in autumn, the crop is not too lush so that a treatment of the maize stubble does not require additional energy. Although red and sheep's fescue are winter hardy, there is no problem during chopping and processing of the growth during spring. The undersow crop must be sprayed before chopping and processing. The load carrying capacity of the soil is improved through the large root mass, and the soil is enriched with organic matter.

90 % Chewings fescue
10 % Hard fescue
If a certain variety is unavailable it will be replaced with equivalents.

Cultivation Instructions

Sowing Rate7-10 kg/ha
Date for SowingDirectly before or after the maize sowing
UsageSoil coverage, erosion protection, energy grass production

How to Track Visits to Your Web Marketing Site in Google Analytics

By John Arnold, Michael Becker, Marty Dickinson, Ian Lurie, Elizabeth Marsten

Because in web marketing a session is defined as any one visit to your site, sessions are a good general measure of site use and load. Think of sessions as foot traffic in a traditional retail store: The same people might go in and out of the store, but that doesn’t matter. If the store’s full, it’s full.

In your traffic-reporting tool, you’ll find sessions either under a section called Sessions (surprise!) or Visits.

Don’t use sessions to measure the following:

  • Audience size: If someone visits, leaves, and then returns to your site many times, one person can generate multiple sessions in any time period. So, sessions can be far higher than unique visits (a more accurate measure of audience).

  • Ad performance: Advertising — whether pay-per-click ads, e-mail, banners, or other creative elements — is created to bring you new customers. Because sessions don’t differentiate between new and repeat visitors, they’re not a good measure of ad performance. Counting unique visitors is far better.

Do use sessions to see

  • Site activity in the broadest possible terms: More sessions mean more traffic, which may also mean a higher load on your web server. Sessions are a good way to judge how much strain your site is under.

  • Conversion rate based on foot traffic to your site: If you want to know how many visits it takes to get a sale or lead, you need to know how many sessions you get in a given time period.

  • General interest in your site: Even though one person can generate many sessions, sessions are still a great way to see how much interest you’re generating. At a high level, whether five or ten people generated those 100 sessions isn’t critical. The average level of interest remains the same.

  • Peak times of the day, month, or year: Many businesses are cyclical by day or season. Peaks or lows in sessions might fit a pattern that tells you your customers are more active at a specific time of day or year. Often the session graph of one day will show a common cycle.

Among analytics experts, sessions can sometimes get a bad reputation. Folks will skip them and move on to unique visitors, which appear to provide better data. However, sessions do provide valuable information.
