André Rieu, the Maestro of the Masses (New York Times), a Weapon of Mass Happiness (The Spectator), and the best-selling classical musician on the planet, insists that music has magical and healing powers. He sees it all the time at his concerts. He sees laughter. He sees kissing. He sees joyful weeping. He even sees miracles.
"You know I'm so proud when I'm on stage and I see all these happy faces," he says. "That's what makes me happy. We come on stage at 8pm and let's say at 10.30pm the encore starts. And by then the audience are in the mood and they don't want to stop. They don't want to go home. So we do a 45-minute encore. And that's when people get up from their wheelchairs and throw away their sticks and say: Come on, let's dance."
At this point, one ought to demand photographic evidence or at least raise an eyebrow, but you might as well start swearing at him in Kazakh. (One of the few languages he doesn't speak). André Léon Marie Nicolas Rieu doesn't do cynicism. A warm, perennially-smiling presence, he's careful to use your name and he responds to all efforts to find a chink of darkness in his persona with peals of laughter.
"I'm sitting here smiling now right now," he says. "Journalists and politicians say we live in a cynical world but I don't believe that we live in a cynical world. We live in a fantastic world. It's getting better and better and better all the time. For me, the glass is always half full. That's the way I look at things. I think when people come to my concerts they enjoy not only the music but the happiness we share with each other. And I don't think it's the case that they come to my concerts and experience joy for three hours and then go back to misery. I can't believe that."
One-off big-screen music events – either live streamed from the Royal Opera or from the moshpit of a Metallica concert – have been a huge draw for cinemas over the past decade. And no artist has scared up more movie trade than André Rieu. The film of his 2018 Maastricht concert – Amore, My Tribute to Love – grossed £1.67 million over two weekends in Britain and Ireland, breaking the previous box office record held by, well, André Rieu. His 2019 summer concert outpaced its predecessor. And 70 Years Young, a one-off concert to mark his 70th birthday in early January, looks certain to repeat the trick.
"My sons came with this idea 10 years ago," recalls Rieu. "They said we're going to do the concerts in a cinema. And I said: what? But it's incredible, I hear stories about people in the cinema dancing and singing and clapping. And it's amazing to think that there are people in cinemas all over the world enjoying themselves as if they were at the live concerts."
We shouldn't be surprised that Rieu is a box office sensation. In an era when, we are told, nobody sells DVDs and CDs anymore, Rieu has sold more than 40 million of them. Last year, the Dutch violinist and conductor sold more than 700,000 tickets to his concerts, bringing in $55.9 million (€50.6m) from 71 shows. It's an impressive haul for someone who has seldom been the beneficiary of media hype.
Writing this newspaper in 2013, Donald Clarke claimed, among other things, that Rieu "essays a class of decaffeinated classical music that makes Richard Clayderman seem like Karlheinz Stockhausen". Even the Daily Mail, an imprint that can usually be relied upon to treasure the accessible, traditional aesthetic favoured by Rieu, uses backhanded phrases as "ladies of a certain age" when describing his fanbase.
Rieu is never bitter toward his critics. In 2016, he told the New York Times that he regarded the "schmaltz" tag as complimentary.
"I see a lot of jealousy around me," he says, cheerfully as ever. "People say: Oh my God, he plays waltzes. And the money is coming in. But you have to realise it's a lot of hard work too. I have a friend who says: you are not lucky; you work so hard that's what makes the luck for you. I think that's a very nice way to say it."
Even within classical circles – perhaps especially within classical circles – Rieu cuts a divisive figure. A 2009 thread on the Dutch impresario at TalkClassical.com contained such eye-watering (and uncharacteristic) jabs as "scum of the earth". He's not interested in the canon. When he famously led several thousand Ajax fans in a sing-along of Shostakovich's little-known Waltz No 2, during the 1995 Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich, it marked a rare foray into Russian composition for an artist who unabashedly prefers Johann Strauss and the theme from Titanic to Richard Wagner.
"You know, I don't see the difference between classical music and other music." says Rieu. "Some people are very strict. They say: no that's not classical music. Even in pop music you hear: no, that's not pop music. For me there are no borders in music. There's only good music and bad music. Good music is music that touches my heart. And I know that if it touches my heart, and I'm emotional about it, I'm 100 per cent sure that my audience will have the same feeling. I follow my heart and nothing else. And it seems I have a gift. Because what my heart tells me to play works. It turns out there are a lot of people with my heart."
The music starts and people see the lights and suddenly they are so happy
His heart has enough business nous to have gifted him a fairytale. Rieu lives in a 17th-century chateau with 27 bedrooms and a butterfly house. Its previous owner was Charles de Batz-Castelmore d'Artagnan – the inspiration for Alexandre Dumas's musketeer, who died at the siege of Maastricht in 1673. The city is Rieu's hometown and he's not going anywhere.
"I was born here, I live here, and I'm going to die here," he laughs. "But not yet".
He plays a 1667 Stradivarius violin, one of only 400 such instruments in the world, "a magical object" he says, that sounds warm like Maria Callas.
His family life is idyllic. Marjorie Rieu, his wife of almost 45 years, is his long-time business partner. Their son Pierre is the vice-president of André Rieu Productions. And he gushes about the Johann Strauss Orchestra, which he founded in 1987, as his second family.
"Marjorie and Pierre and me run the whole thing," says Rieu. "We have a very small organisation around us who organise the hotels and the flights and getting the sets around the world. We don't have a manager overseeing what we do and looking after the money. I have 120 people on my payroll and most of them are with me for more than 35 years. So I think they like me as a boss."
Rieu's father was conductor of the Maastricht Symphony Orchestra. The third of six children, André was encouraged by his mother at the age of five to take up violin. He studied the instrument at the Royal Conservatory of Liège and at the Conservatorium Maastricht, where a rapturous response to a university performance of the Gold And Silver Waltz by Franz Lehár schooled him in the romance of three-quarter time.
His waltz-dependent tours are invariably spectacular. In 2008, he enjoyed performing in front of the Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna so much that he decided to build a full-scale replica for his upcoming world tour, replete with fountains, an ice rink, a ballroom full of dancers, a state carriage covered in gold, pipers, and real champagne for all. By the time he returned from Australia, he was €34 million in debt. That ought to have satisfied his most vitriolic critics, but, in keeping with Rieu-brand magic, he bounced back. The publicity from his bankruptcy allowed him to sell out all of his 2009 concerts, and he went into 2010 with a $20 million profit.
"I was crazy and we made a copy of the Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna," he recalls. "And we toured the world with it. And we calculated that we would need 500 people for five days to build this thing and I don't know why but we always assembled it in two days. This is true of my whole life. The music starts and people see the lights and suddenly they are so happy. And there's a positive mentality. And with that kind of positive mentality, I think we can change the world."
If Rieu is harbouring any darkness, then he's a very good actor indeed. Anyone else would at least have the good grace to complain about sore cheeks from all that smiling. But not André Rieu.
He laughs.
"That is a question that people very often ask me." he says. "Even people in my own orchestra. I can tell you that if we were to force ourselves to enjoy the shows or force ourselves to smile, the audience would immediately know it was theatre. What we do is completely honest. I am what you see on stage and what you hear on stage."
André Rieu: 70 Years Young is on release January 4th and 5th

Does it really matter though? This is beginner female cosplay 101. However, the physique is another matter entirely. However, they will not have any adult supervision or support as they will be doing it in secret for fear of getting in trouble. However, Sora makes up for it with the rest of her outfit! Camila Menezes has an incredible Cyclops Cosplay outfit that looks to be completely home grown. Because let's be honest, the outfit is rather simple. And to be honest, that was the trickiest part. Let's begin with Ludica, i.e. the Mecca of all those who have a passion for games and videogames, which this year gives you the chance to take part in the tournament and try to qualify for the official Italian PES League 2012. Taking part in the tournament you might earn useful points for the qualification to the national final, which will take place in July. Dante always asks for her, Cameron stays at his dad's a bit longer on Sundays because it is the hardest part of the week when she doesn't come home.
Sophie, who is known by her moniker PeachMilkyTea, suffered from extreme shyness while living at home in Bangor. Bring them closer home with one of these male cosplay ideas. This particular Death the Kid Cosplay Costume bundle is constantly one of the best sellers on our shop. Wear the best quality attire that the costume industry has to offer. Outside of Kida cosplay, this opalite crystal looks great for everyday wear. I will still have the fur suit commissioned, because it takes years to get great at making those, but I will probably do enhancements to it myself, such as how I added the grey fur to my ears this year. These are a great way for cosplayers to make new friends who share their interests. Among the stars in attendance at this weekend's convention are Michael Rooker (Guardians of the Galaxy, The Walking Dead), Sean Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy, Gilmore Girls), and Amelia Rose Blaire (Detroit Become Human, True Blood). Her appeal is not second to older girls who seem rather sexy with Lara Croft costumes. So who cars if Wolverine is missing a claw? Who is this Pink Power Ranger? A pink wig and white pants complete the look.
At the same time, it is because that there are always different kinds of cosplays that could satisfy our desire all the way, such as the cosplay clothes, the cosplay wig and other accessories, meanwhile, we could custom tailor any of our special items as long as we want to, which makes our cosplay more vivid and perfect. I'm in need of a new Cowl for both reviews and for cosplays. To nail this perfectly-balanced look, you will need to wear a basic tank top paired with a pair of chino pants and a pair of glasses. The chair back features a skull wearing a crown, and if you position yourself just so in the seat, you can wear the crown, too. The cartoon features a solid while CutiePie sports a ring. While it's touched a nerve, the episode is clearly meant to be played for laughs. Swank has more than a touch of Alien heroine Ripley or Terminator 2-era Sarah Connor about her, and there's even an action scene set in an '80s-style foundry. Whichever costumes you decide to go with, remember to put your personal touch and imagination into your costume, and have fun. You have to respect a female cosplay side hustle!

A new court filing claims that an attorney who has been described as the district attorney's "legal advisor" was behind a pair of mysterious emails that have come to dominate the 2019 Walmart mass shooting state capital murder case.
"I am convinced that the emails purportedly sent from an email address associated with the Hoffmann family were actually sent by someone in the Office of the District Attorney, including District Attorney Yvonne Rosales, Roger Rodriguez, ADA Curtis Cox, and potentially other upper management staff of the DA's Office to advance their own agenda," attorney Justin Underwood wrote in a Thursday filing.
Those emails are at the heart of a hearing scheduled for Oct. 11 in which state District Court Judge Sam Medrano Jr. will decide whether the Hoffmanns, the family of one of the 23 people killed at the Walmart, violated the gag order he imposed on all attorneys and witnesses in the case.
Underwood's filing, known as an ad litem report, includes transcripts of audio recordings made by the Hoffman family of Rodriguez, as well as sworn statements in which Rodriguez vowed to have Medrano removed from the case, threatening legal action if necessary. Rodriguez appears to claim at one point that he will eventually be appointed to oversee the case.
Underwood was appointed by Medrano to represent the family in a hearing regarding the gag order, which was originally scheduled for mid-August but was postponed while the district attorney's motion to recuse Medrano was heard in court.
Allegations of Rodriguez's involvement in these emails first surfaced during a recusal hearing on September 27, when a visiting judge ruled that Medrano could remain on the case.
Valdez is the widow of Walmart shooting victim Alexander Gerhard Hoffmann Roth, a German national who lived in Ciudad Juárez and had three children with her.
The email, which appeared to be sent from Valdez's personal email address and bore the signature of Valdez's son, Alexander Hoffmann, attacked former prosecutor Amanda Enriquez for giving an interview about the case on the three-year anniversary of the shooting. It accused Enriquez of "using this case for political purposes," but provided no further details.
According to documents obtained under the Texas Public Information Act, the recipients of the email largely matched media distribution lists used by the El Paso County District Attorney's Office to send out news releases.
This claim is supported by affidavits from Valdez and her sons Alexander and Thomas, as well as 110 minutes of recorded conversations between the family and Rodriguez.
According to the filing, the family began recording their interactions with him due to his "abnormal behavior and the fact that he was representing District Attorney Yvonne Rosales." It goes on to say that Underwood turned over this evidence to the FBI.
Underwood's filing also claims that Rodriguez tried, but failed, to intimidate Valdez into signing a contract with Juárez-based attorney Jose Morales. On August 24, Morales allegedly emailed Medrano to inform him that he was now representing the Hoffmanns and that they would not be attending any future hearings. Any attempts to force them to attend – and testify – "will be reported to the Mexican authorities for prosecution," according to the email.
Defense attorneys for the alleged Walmart shooter have accused the District Attorney's Office of attempting to remove Medrano in order to conceal details about Rodriguez's involvement in the case that would have been revealed by the Hoffmanns' testimony.
In a phone call with the family on August 13, Rodriguez refers to multiple conspiracies surrounding the shooting and claims that El Paso Matters CEO Robert Moore is involved in efforts to overturn the prosecution of the case and have Rosales removed from office.
According to Underwood's report, the Hoffmann family informed him that the DA's office intended to target Medrano, Enriquez, and Moore. "Hard blows are coming against the enemies," Rodriguez said in an Aug. 31 phone call to his family.
Rosales filed the motion to recuse Medrano nine days after that phone call. On the same day as the call, an anonymous person complained to the Internal Revenue Service about El Paso Matters' tax-exempt status.
Rodriguez rambles throughout the recordings, evoking his faith and frequently referring to Jesus Christ and God, whom he says "tests us." He dominates the discussions and repeatedly advises the family to ignore calls from the District Attorney's Office and to not attend future hearings, even if they are subpoenaed – or legally compelled – to do so.

Description•14 years ago
User-Agent: Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; de; rv:126.96.36.199) Gecko/20100526 Lightning/1.0b2pre Thunderbird/3.1 Steps to reproduce: Tools -> Account Settings -> Composition & Addressing -> Compose messages in HTML format. Tools -> Options-> Composition -> General -> Send Options -> Text Format -> Send the message in both plain text and HTML. Create a message in HTML and do not format its text (no colour etc.) !!! Leave "options – format – autom. decide" in the compose window. Sent the message. --> PROBLEM: When you open the sent message, you can see that it's only sent in plaintext (i. e. the message is sent with unproportional plaintext font Courier New instead of proportional html font Arial in my case). Also if you display the message's source text, you can see that there are no html tags included. Thus the setting "Send the message in both plain text and HTML" is ignored; the message is only sent as plaintext (whereas I want to send it also as html with my proportional html font Arial). For testing purposes I also tried the following: I added *.* as the domain name in Tools -> Options -> Composition -> General -> Send Options -> HTML Domains --> But same problem as before: Unformatted messages are only sent in plaintext (unproportional plaintext font Courier New instead of proportional html font Arial). Further findings: The only way I found to send unformatted messages in html is to set Options -> Format -> "plaintext and html" or "only html" manually in the compose window. Only then the sent message consists of html (proportional html font Arial instead of unproportional plaintext font Courier New). Background: The reason for this bug report is, that I want to send the message in proportional font Arial; i. e. Arial should be the font, the mail recipient gets displayed. Therfore I need to send the mail in HTML. But I cannot tell TB to do so always and automatically, when sending unformatted mails. I can just tell TB manually (mail by mail) via "options -> format". (Or I need to colour at least 1 letter in the mail. Then TB sends the mail in HTML.) Reproducible: Always
There are a couple of bugs pending on this issue, I'm duping this to the one for disabling the auto-detect mechanism and always respecting user's choice.

In his preview of the week's economic calendar, DB's Jim Reid writes that maybe the most interesting data this week comes on Friday with the Q3 employment cost index (exp. at +1.2% vs. +1.3% last month) and the September personal income (+0.4% vs. +0.3%) and consumption (+0.4% vs. +0.4%) report, including the core PCE deflator (+0.5% vs. +0.56%). Q3 GDP will also be closed watched, with consensus expecting a bounce from -0.6% to 2.3%. With respect to core PCE, economists expect the Fed's preferred measure of inflation to rise by 30bps to 5.2%. DB economists highlight that as the median forecast for 2022 core PCE inflation in the Fed's Summary of Economic Projections from the September 21st meeting was 4.5%, it's going to be tough to signal a downshift in December.
Elsewhere this week the main highlights are the ECB (Thursday) and the BoJ (Friday) decisions and a huge round of earnings with big Tech the highlight. We also have a new UK Prime Minister as of this moment, after ex-Chancellor Sunak was effectively declared PM tonight. We'll also see US Q3 GDP (Thursday) and flash PMIs in the US and Europe (today) and October CPIs and GDP for many European countries (Friday). There are other data which are in the day by day guide at the end as usual for a Monday but let's take a brief look at the highlights outside the already discussed PCE. The ECB's decision on Thursday will be a big event with our European economists expecting another +75bps hike (72.3bp priced in), followed by +75bps in December (c.62bps priced in), +50bps in February (c.38bps priced), and +25bps in March, reaching a terminal rate of 3%. The press conference as ever will be a focal point and there'll be lots of attention on technical things surrounding TLTROs and excess reserves. For more on the options here see our fixed income strategists blog from Friday here.
Staying with central banks, over in Japan, the BoJ announces its decision on Friday amidst continued downward pressure on the yen, which hit a 32-year low against the dollar of 151.95 on Friday before surging again to end the week at 147.65 – c.3.5% swing while the Japanese slept after Nikkei reported fresh intervention from the Japanese authorities. The Yen has again seen a wild session in Asia. After falling again to 149.67 it surged to 145.65 and now trades at 148.88 as we go to press with no clarity on if and what intervention has been done.
For US Q3 GDP this week, DB's US economists expect real growth to rebound to +3.0% from Q2's -0.6%. Q3 GDP figures will also be out for European countries on Friday, including for Germany and France with the former likely to be slightly negative and the latter slightly positive. Overall it's likely to be the start of growth grinding towards or below zero and then staying negative for a few quarters. On European CPI on Friday remember September readings saw Germany's CPI reaching 10% for the first time since 1950.
Finally, earnings will come thick and fast this week, featuring the big tech, oil majors and key automakers and staples. In tech alone we have Microsoft, Alphabet (tomorrow), Meta (Wednesday) and Apple and Amazon (Thursday). A huge slug (20% by market cap) of the S&P 500 in 48 hours. One thing to not: The GAMMA stocks (Google, Apple, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon) have lost $3 trillion in market cap this year and yet they are still larger than the utilities, energy and consumer sectors combined. Other notable tech firms reporting results will include Intel, Twitter, SAP and Samsung. The other main reporters are in the day by day week ahead at the end.

Finally, looking at just the US, Goldman writes that the key economic data releases this week are the Q3 GDP advance release on Thursday, and the employment cost index, core PCE, and University of Michigan consumer sentiment reports on Friday. There are no scheduled speaking engagements from Fed officials on monetary policy this week, reflecting the FOMC blackout period.
Monday, October 24
- 09:45 AM S&P Global US manufacturing PMI, October preliminary (consensus 51.0, last 52.0): S&P Global US services PMI, October preliminary (consensus 49.5, last 49.3)

- 09:00 AM S&P/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index, August (GS -0.7%, consensus -0.70%, last -0.44%): We estimate that the S&P/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index declined 0.7% in August, following a 0.44% decline in July.
- 10:00 AM Conference Board consumer confidence, October (GS 106.0, consensus 105.3, last 108.0): We estimate that the Conference Board consumer confidence index decreased to 106.0 in October.
- 10:00 AM Richmond Fed manufacturing index, October (consensus -5, last 0)
- 01:55 PM Fed Governor Waller speaks: Governor Christopher Waller will discuss FedNow at an event hosted by Money20/20. A moderated Q&A is expected; however, he is not expected to comment on monetary policy, reflecting the FOMC blackout period.
Wednesday, October 26
- 08:30 AM Advance goods trade balance, September (GS -$87.0bn, consensus -$87.5bn, last -$87.3bn): We estimate that the goods trade deficit narrowed by $0.3bn to $87.0bn in September compared to the final August report, reflecting a larger drop in imports than in exports.
- 08:30 AM Wholesale inventories, September preliminary (consensus +1.0%, last +1.3%)
- 10:00 AM New home sales, September (GS -17.0%, consensus -15.3%, last +28.8%): We estimate that new home sales declined 17.0% in September, following a 28.8% increase in August.
Thursday, October 27
- 08:30 AM GDP, Q3 advance (GS +2.4%, consensus +2.3%, last -0.6%): Personal consumption, Q3 advance (GS +1.4%, consensus +0.9%, last +2.0%): We estimate that GDP growth rose +2.4% annualized in the advance reading for Q3, following the 0.6% annualized decline in Q2. Our forecast reflects a slowdown in consumption growth (to +1.4% qoq ar) and large declines in structures investment (residential -23%, nonresidential -6%). We also expect a negative contribution to GDP growth from inventories (-0.7pp) but estimate a large boost from normalization in net exports (+3.1pp contribution). We estimate domestic final sales rose just 0.3% annualized. We will finalize our forecast after Wednesday's foreign trade and inventory data.
- 08:30 AM Durable goods orders, September preliminary (GS +1.2%, consensus +0.6%, last -0.2%); Durable goods orders ex-transportation, September preliminary (GS flat, consensus +0.1%, last +0.3%); Core capital goods orders, September preliminary (GS flat, consensus +0.3%, last +1.4%); Core capital goods shipments, September preliminary (GS +0.2%, consensus +0.3%, last +0.4%): We estimate that durable goods orders rebounded 1.2% in the preliminary September report, reflecting strength in commercial aircraft orders but a possible pullback in defense orders. We expect softness elsewhere in the report, including a slowdown in growth for shipments of core capital goods (+0.2%) and unchanged core capital goods orders, reflecting weaker foreign demand and some softening in domestic industrial data.
- 08:30 AM Initial jobless claims, week ended October 22 (GS 215k, consensus 220k, last 214k); Continuing jobless claims, week ended October 15 (consensus 1,383k, last 1,385k): We estimate initial jobless claims edged up to 215k in the week ended October 22.
- 11:00 AM Kansas City Fed manufacturing index, October (consensus -2, last +1)
Friday, October 28
- 08:30 AM Employment cost index, Q3 (GS +1.2%, consensus +1.2%, prior +1.3%): We estimate that the employment cost index (ECI) rose 1.2% in Q3 (qoq sa), which would lower the year-on-year rate by one tenth to 5.0%. Our forecast reflects sequential slowing in the private wages ex-incentives category, based on slowing growth in the Atlanta Fed wage tracker and in production and nonsupervisory average hourly earnings. However, we expect another strong reading for the benefits category as firms expand health insurance and supplemental pay programs in order to attract and retain talent. We see two-sided risk from incentive-paid industries, as fewer home sales commissions (and production bonuses more generally) could be offset by rebounding commissions on home equity loans and HELOCs.
- 08:30 AM Personal income, September (GS +0.4%, consensus +0.4%, last +0.3%): Personal spending, September (GS +0.6%, consensus +0.4%, last +0.4%); PCE price index, September (GS +0.26%, consensus +0.3%, last +0.29%); PCE price index (yoy), September (GS +6.19%, consensus +6.3%, last +6.25%); Core PCE price index, September (GS +0.36%, consensus +0.5%, last +0.56%); Core PCE price index (yoy), September (GS +5.07%, consensus +5.2%, last +4.91%): Based on details in the PPI, CPI, and import price reports, we forecast that the core PCE price index rose by 0.36% month-over-month in September, corresponding to a 5.07% increase from a year earlier. Additionally, we expect that the headline PCE price index increased by 0.26% in September, corresponding to a 6.19% increase from a year earlier. We expect that personal income increased by 0.4% and personal spending increased by 0.6% in September.
- 10:00 AM Pending home sales, September (GS -7.5%, consensus -5.0%, last -2.0%): We estimate pending home sales declined 7.5% in September, following a 2.0% decline in August.
- 10:00 AM University of Michigan consumer sentiment, October final (GS 59.3, consensus 59.6, last 59.8); University of Michigan 5–10-year inflation expectations, October final (GS 2.9%, consensus 2.9%, last 2.9%): We expect the University of Michigan consumer sentiment index decreased by 0.5pt to 59.3 in the final October reading.

It reminds me of listening to fucking Supreme Clientele for the first time. So dense and hidden. Like a lyrical allegory for the masking up.

Nginx is the fastest webserver when compared to Apache. In this post, we are gonna explain on how to secure your website using SSL certificate on ubuntu 16.04.
- Ubuntu 16.04
- Nginx webserver. If nginx is not installed, please follow the post to install nginx
- You must have private key, certificate and intermediate CA(If a CSR is generated on your server then private key must have stored on the same machine)
Install SSL Certificate.
This post assumes that nginx is installed on /etc/nginx directory. If nginx is installed on different directory then you may need to slightly adjust the commands which we are using. However, the process remains same.
Let's create a directory to store SSL certificate. We are creating the directory on /etc/nginx/ssl.
mkdir /etc/nginx/ssl
Copy the private key to /etc/nginx/ssl directory.
cp /location/domain.tld.key /etc/nginx/ssl
Copy the certificate, intermediate CA to server using winscp or ftp or anyother way to the server. In our example, we copied SSL ceritifcate to /usr/local/src using filezilla
Integrate certificate and intermediate CA into single pem file using the below command.
cd /usr/local/src
cat domain.tld.crt domain.tld.ca > /etc/nginx/ssl/domain.tld.pem
Open nginx configuration and append the following line after ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
ssl_ciphers EECDH+CHACHA20:EECDH+AES128:RSA+AES128:EECDH+AES256:RSA+AES256:EECDH+3DES:RSA+3DES:!MD5;
Open site configuration file and append the following lines. Assuming that there is one domain hosted on the server and the default configuration is /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default. If there are multiple domains then we need to append the below lines on the corresponding domain configuration.
Ideally, the location of most of domain configuration will be on /etc/nginx/sites-enabled. If the installation path is different then you need to select appropriate path.
vi /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
server {
listen 443 ssl http2 default_server;
listen [::]:443 ssl http2 default_server;root /var/www/html
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/domain.tld.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/domain.tld.key;index index.php index.html index.htm
server_name _;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
This is a minimum configuration which are required to install SSL certificate.
Check for any nginx syntax error.
nginx -t
Once we confirm everything looks good, restart nginx service.
systemctl restart nginx
Use thirdparty websites to verify the SSL certificates.

Why She's Interesting: In her wildest dreams, Martin envisioned herself working for a film festival. In 2010, she started out as an intern at the Cleveland International Film Festival, then worked her way up to artistic director in October. Now, she's tasked with leading CIFF in planning its annual programming all while navigating the challenges of going fully virtual during the pandemic.
Festival Junkie: Martin attended Ohio University to study film and video production but quickly learned that she didn't like filmmaking as much as she liked studying film. Her passion came to life while volunteering with the Athens International Film and Video Festival. "The whole time I was in film school, never once was there mention of the fact that you could make a career out of working in film festivals."
Big Break: While working as a bar manager at Put-in-Bay in 2010, Martin revealed to a chatty customer that her dream was to work for a film festival — and then watched as, right then and there, the tipsy patron put in a call to his friend Patrick Shepherd, CIFF's associate director, and left a voicemail imploring him to give Martin a shot. "I woke up in the morning and thought, OK, this guy's never gonna call me, but he called me two weeks later, and the rest is history."
Movie Buff: She credits the cinema of her childhood with forging her love of film, recalling her '90s-era Quentin Tarantino phase with True Romance and Natural Born Killers and frivolous but witty teen flicks like Clueless. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which came out during her senior year of high school, most heavily influenced her scriptwriting voice and her love of the film genre she calls "subverted romance." "Movies, for me, were always a really great escape but also helped define who I was."
Blockbuster Event: In pre-COVID times, Martin's job was travel-heavy, taking her to as many as 10 film festivals per year to scout for films to bring back to Cleveland. One of her favorites is the Toronto International Film Festival which takes over the city during its annual run each September with events all around town. "Ultimately I hope for something like that for CIFF in the future."
Palate Cleanser: Martin watches between 500-600 feature films each year for work. So her husband, Lawrence Stepp, sets aside a number of TV shows such as Tiger King they can binge-watch together in the spring or summer when Martin isn't as tapped in to film. "It's nice to have a little buffer and a chance to just watch things for entertainment."
Three and Out:
What's one thing people don't know about you?
My husband and I both have a thing for waterfalls. We eloped at La Fortuna Waterfall in Costa Rica.
What's inspiring you in life right now?
The Black Lives Matter movement is inspiring me in a lot of ways. They're working to make us all better. There's an insane amount of work to be done, but I have a lot of hope.
What is one new hobby or activity you've picked up in the last year?
I had to walk [my Border Collie Savannah] a bunch, which turned into me actually exercising again every day.

Manual Button Pushers: Oracles say manual QA is important, so why can't you?
November 4, 2021 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm CDT
Manual Button Pushers
Workshop: Valued oracles say manual QA is important, so why can't you?
Presenter: Alex Langshall, Test-ops Engineer at Lucid Software
It seems like the software development industry is willing to accept the idea that manual testing is unnecessary, where as other roles are unassailable. In other words, people are willing to claim QA is unnecessary, but are unwilling to say that about the CEO. Why? What's going on here? This talk is going to look at what data actually says about the effectiveness of manual testing in the software industry, as well as give you some tips and tricks to reinforce the value of what you do on a daily basis as well as provide new ways that you can provide value to your organization.

Amazon and Blue Origin founder and world's richest man Jeff Bezos will fly with his brother and winner Auction announced in May In the first manned launch of a New Shepard rocket on July 20.
Bezos explained in himself Instagram Profile that he has dreamed of traveling to space "since he was five years old." Now he's ready to "go on that adventure with his best friend" to his brother, firefighter Mark Bezos.
New Shepard's suborbital flight will last 10 minutes. The First Steps capsule carries four crew members, but it is unknown whether there will be anyone other than Bezos, his brother and the winner of the Blue Origin auction. Auction is still open and highest bid For now it's $2.8 million.
The rocket will fly until it exceeds the speed of sound. Within three minutes, the First Steps capsule will detach from the thruster and space tourists will be able to unfasten their seat belts to reach the windows and experience the sensation of weightlessness. Four minutes after takeoff, New Shepard will land vertically Without capsule on the platform 3.2 km from the launch tower.
The capsule will reach its peak once it passes the Karmann Line, the boundary between Earth's atmosphere and outer space. Then it would begin to descend and the crew would feel the effects of gravity again. Nine minutes after takeoff, the parachutes would be deployed and the capsule would reduce its speed to 26 km/h.
G/O Media may get commission
la capsula first step It will land in the desert of West Texas at a speed of 1.6 km / h. Blue Origin employees will arrive in the area by off-road vehicles Pick up the crew after checking that everything is going well.

When the word "blended families" is mentioned, one might immediately think about the television show Brady Bunch and how after every thirty-minute program, all of their troubles and issues were neatly resolved and everyone was smiling as the end credits rolled into the familiar theme song. Blending families isn't easy, but it's always rewarding. And no one knows that better than artist/singer, Mashonda.
In an exclusive interview with ESSENCE Senior News and Culture editor, Christina Coleman, Mashonda talks about her famous blended family which includes ex-husband Swizz Beatz, his wife, Alicia Keys and the five children that they are raising together.
"Once you are willing to let go of those feelings, forgiving becomes easy", Mashonda said in her interview regarding Swizz and Keys after their 2010 divorce. "It's an evolution to know you can reach that point as a human being."
However, living in the public eye sometimes makes it harder than not to effectively accomplish the goals of common ground, love, and reconciliation. Take for example when a family vacation photo surfaced and made its way around social media, of course stirring up controversy when there was none.
"We didn't plan to go on vacation together," Mashonda recalled. "I was out there with my girlfriend for her birthday and my son was there for Swizz and Alicia for spring break. We all knew we were there together on the same island of St. Bart's so I reached out like, 'hey, let's hook up, I want to see Kasseem.' We made a play date type thing and I came to the beach and met them there. I didn't know they were going to kiss. He leaned in, he kissed her—that's his wife. It didn't bother me; it didn't affect me that people find that to be weird or awkward. It's entertainment for them but it's actually real life for us," she said. "It's a natural thing."

I have to send thousands of transactions to a custom substrate chain, it will probably take a few days to process all of them. Of course I can't just send all the transactions at once because they probably won't fit in the transaction pool and also if I am overwhelming the tx-pool there's a chance that some of the transactions are dropped from the pool which (considering the high volume of transactions to process) would not be easy to handle.
The extrinsic that I will be executing this many times is pretty simple, in only stores data and emits an event
What would be a good approach to managing the amount of transactions to send to the transaction pool at a certain point and what considerations should I take into account?

All you need is string (cord, hemp, yarn, ribbon...anything you have on hand) and some fun beads. Ruthie is my, um, spirited child. So I used the ol' highchair to keep her in one spot and contain some of the chaos, or else I would be finding beads around the house from now until the end of time.
She wears hers everywhere - her "gussets"she calls them - and rakes in the compliments. :)

You may well believe that I currently have become lazy about writing, or suffer from writer's block. This is not the case, I have enough material, but I also have a relatively good excuse.
When I finally came home mid February after seven months of hospital-hopping, my implanted drug pump (see older posts) decided without asking me to escape from my body through the abdominal wall. And that after only three weeks of "homeland" holiday!
Over the years the skin around the scar got so thin that on March 5th after a shower at home the titanium body of the pump suddenly became visible from the outside. Boy, would I have liked to see my facial expression at that moment! The silver lining doesnŌĆÖt always have to be at the horizon and a silver wire is not likely to grow out of the belly!
There I was with my non-sterile implant.
I immediately decided at the cost of my health insurance company to rent a hospital bed again. Maybe they havenŌĆÖt changed the linens from my old bed?
I have always wanted to dial "112″.
ItŌĆÖs silly, but ultimately itŌĆÖs just a laceration. Now IŌĆÖm in the room next door.
It took two surgeries to replace the pump and the attached line that goes to the spinal canal and move it to the other side. After nearly five weeks in the hospital bed IŌĆÖm finally back in my wheelchair.
What an uplifting feeling to finally have WiFi again in the sitting room and not bother the other fellows with my voice control. Although I'm back with my training where I left three months ago but IŌĆÖd say:
"It could have been worse"

Planning Behavior: Theories and Experiments
While ordinary people tend to make myopic, independent decisions, planners deal with linked decisions intentionally and act accordingly in space and time. Little has been said, however, about how these linked decisions should be made. This collection of essays extends the concepts derived from decision theory in order to explain planning phenomena, particularly planning behavior. The book contains work gathered over a period thirty years that covers micro-decision making and macro-plan making processes in the context of urban planning. It answers the questions of why urban containment policies fail in stopping urban sprawl, how land development decisions are analyzed, and, more fundamentally, why cities need plans. Through the lens of decision theory, this book provides a fresh look at how planners do and should behave in making and using plans in the face of urban complexity.
Shih-Kung Lai received his PhD in Regional Planning from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA, and taught in the Department of Real Estate and Built Environment at National Taipei University, Taiwan, for more than 20 years. He is now affiliated with the College of Architecture and Urban Planning at Tongji University, China. As an active follower of the "Illinois School" synthesized and labelled by Lewis Hopkins, he has published extensively on planning behavior and urban complexity. He is currently the founding Editor-in-Chief of the peer-reviewed Journal of Urban Management.
"The way people plan and how they produce 'good' plans is an area we know relatively little about but how we plan is critical to producing more sustainable, equitable, and efficient cities. In this short but intense book, Shih-Kung Lai outlines how we might formally begin to understand how we might make rational decisions building on recent advances in decision theory. His focus builds particularly on the theories developed in rational choice theory by Tversky and Kahneman and the application of these ideas and their merger with other forms of rationality in what has come to be called 'The Illinois School of Thinking about Plans'. This is essential reading for all those interested in planning methodologies and the way these methods might enable us to tackle effectively some of the most urgent problems that our cities face in the 21st century."

They do not have dedicated fryers and they do not have a separate prep area. After speaking with an alleged manager and telling them I am celiacs, my plate still came out with my refried beans in a corn shell that was deep fried in the fryer after she specifically told me everything goes in one fryer. Even their chips go in the fryer
— Not at all
— Gluten-free items are marked on the main menu
— Some
— Below Average
Chips are not gluten free, made in shared fryer. Waiter brought over some corn tortillas instead of chips. Fajitas and rice are gf. Have many items listed as gf on menu but I would confirm that they are celiac safe.
The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. There are a lot of gluten free options; plethora of appetizers and entrees. You can substitute flour tortillas for corn. I have been multiple times and have never gotten sick. I really recommend this place, one of my favorites

Protein Guacamole Dip - This delicious dip combines creamy avocado with cottage cheese for a healthy, high protein snack!
So, I tried avocado brownies last week, and I have to say, they weren't for me.
This is surprising, given my love for avocado in sweet recipes!
I can see avocado being a good fat replacement for those who have dairy and coconut allergies. In my case, however, I prefer to have avocado in other things, like smoothies and this guacamole dip!
Guacamole meets cottage cheese
This recipe has 'been in the family' for two generations now, having been passed down from my mom to me.
She adapted it from a friend in college that originally used sour cream. My mom wanted to use cottage cheese in place of the sour cream, and a new, divine delight was born!
The cottage cheese actually adds a nice texture that you don't get with sour cream, and I personally like the taste better.
Cottage cheese also amps up the protein factor, making this feel much more healthy when you're scooping it up with fried tortilla chips, lol.
If you're looking for a good way to eat this, try my daughter's Super Simple Mexican Food in a Bowl recipe.
I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do!
Other recipes with avocado you might enjoy:
Avocado Lime Pudding
Healthy Chocolate Pudding Pops
Andes Mint Pie
Chocolate Cherry 'Ice Cream'
Protein Guacamole Dip
- 1 large avocado
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 Tbsp red onion minced
- 1 Roma tomato chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3-4 tsp lemon juice to taste
- Mash the avocado well in a bowl.
- Add in the remaining ingredients and stir well. Add the salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste.
Full-fat or low-fat cottage cheese will work for this recipe.
