"There's nothing more important than providing students with all the benefits YU has to offer—including protecting the ideals and the foundations of the Jewish tradition," Hirt says. "If a student cannot attend because of financial issues, it is not just a missed opportunity for that person, it is potentially a multi-generational loss for the broader Jewish community."
Hirt is the driving force behind Yeshiva University's current scholarship initiative, which aims to secure an additional $5 million for student aid this year. For Hirt, who has been a trustee for six years and was just named chairman of the capital campaign, devotion to the University comes right from his core. "I am someone who believes deeply in the purpose and vision of this institution," he says. "I see myself as a bridge to our alumni base, especially to people who may have lost their YU connection over the years."
A partner in the private equity investment firm Lindsay Goldberg, Hirt communicates his connection with ease. "I can speak to somebody about Yeshiva in ways that are neither detached nor formal. I feel as strongly and as passionately as anybody about what we're doing for YU-and what YU is doing for our students."
You might argue that his passion is virtually embedded in his DNA. "All my siblings-there are six of us altogether-were YU undergraduates. My wife, Rivkie, is a Stern alumna and a faculty physician at Albert Einstein College of Medicine; my sister and brother-in-law are also Einstein grads. We are clearly a YU family, and I believe in the critical role that the University plays in defining and sustaining Modern Orthodoxy."
"That role ranks at the top of what I deem important," continues Hirt. "My goal is to ensure that students can have the good fortune to attend Yeshiva College, Stern College and Sy Syms School of Business-and maybe someday, share their own passion for YU.

House GOP's immigration playbook
Circle July 10 with red ink: It's now the most important day for immigration reform.
That Wednesday is when a hobbled, divided and raucous House Republican Conference will meet in the Capitol basement to figure out how to address the Senate-passed bill.
Story Continued Below
Lawmakers will have just returned from a week in their districts, hearing constituents react to the Senate plan. Leadership expects some will feel a compulsion to move quickly, and others will want to throw on the emergency brake.
( Also on POLITICO: Senate passes immigration reform bill)
But top GOP aides and lawmakers are privately skeptical that any immigration bill — even with beefed up border security — can get the support of 218 Republicans. Speaker John Boehner and his leadership team will ignore the Senate bill but know they can't skip out on the issue altogether. They have to figure out what they'll try to pass, when they'll vote and how the bill will be packaged.
Boehner and his leadership colleagues are acutely aware of the political pressure that will build but don't see immigration as time sensitive. They are comfortable with letting the process stretch until the end of the year.
It will all be tricky.
Key lawmakers have been meeting with groups of rank-and-file Republicans, but have had a difficult time reading what they call the "coalitions" — the pockets of opposition and support for the myriad proposals.
( PHOTOS: 20 quotes on immigration reform)
"I don't know, I really don't," said Rep. James Lankford (R-Okla.), a member of leadership, when asked what could garner enough Republicans needed for a floor vote.
"There's a whole group of folks that don't want anything to go to conference because they're terrified of what it might be," he said. Speaker John "Boehner has been very clear multiple times that if we don't have a majority of the majority in the passage of bill and passage of conference version, then we don't move it."
The leadership's strategy, pieced together from conversations with lawmakers and aides, is coming into clearer focus. So is precisely how the process can come together or abruptly fall apart. Just as January's conference in Williamsburg, Va., shaped the party's fiscal strategy, this meeting will chart a path forward on immigration reform.
( PHOTOS: Pols react to immigration deal)
The "Special GOP conference meeting," set for 3 p.m. and possibly stretching for several hours, will be broken down into a three-step process.
GOP leadership — some combination of Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) and Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) — is likely to give a short presentation in which they'll urge lawmakers to speak their minds so the party can develop a policy.
Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) and Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mike McCaul (R-Texas) will explain what House committees have already passed and options going forward.
( PODCAST: Supreme Court makes history, immigration clears Senate hurdles)
Then comes the key part: letting members vent.
Leadership needs to find out where people stand on four main areas: the future flow of immigrants into the U.S., a possible pathway to citizenship, government benefits and border security. Could they tie these items together in one bill? It's possible, but there are political upsides to putting them on the floor separately: One reason would be to jam Democrats who vote against them. Putting the bills together would allow members to say they supported a package with items they both liked and disliked. It's possible that the House takes up the Senate bill in committee and strips it down to the studs and rewrites it.
A lot of this will be decided in a somewhat stealthy manner.

I wanted to find the best bunk beds for adults when my roommate suddenly needed to have his friend move in with us. The room he lives in is very small so he decided that the best way to accommodate her was to get bunk beds for adults. I live in a 101 year old Craftsman Style home, originally built as a hunting lodge. Therefore I was looking for a specific type of bunk bed, not only safe, but one that would match the architectural feel of my Craftsman Style home. I spent the day searching the internet and kept getting drawn back to one particular style. I'm researching the manufacturer of this style of bunk bed and will report back to you soon as I have more to tell.
And I am happy to tell you that I have found exactly what I was looking for.
After careful research, I found the website of Night and Day, an online furniture store. It carried the Cinnamon Twin Twin Bunk Bed in white finish - exactly what we needed to match the room. I called to give the dimensions and it quickly became clear that it was also a perfect fit for the space available.
The Cinnamon Twin Twin Bunk Bed arrived in a few short days. It was easy to assemble yet the end product was very sturdy, unlike what one usually expects from a bunk. It also came with temp flow memory foam mattresses. As a result: I now have a couple of very happy and well rested housemates and a great looking addition to the small downstairs bedroom.
Please read the Night and Day Cinnamon Twin Twin Bunk Bed Review and visit Night and Day's website for your next purchase.

Venus continues to dominate the western sky on February evenings. Look west-southwest right as night falls for the brightest thing there except for the Moon, which is nearby at the end of the month. Venus, on its faster orbit, is coming around to our side of the Sun (and will pass us in March). Therefore Venus is about as bright as it can be this month.
Saturn is now a late evening object, rising in the east by 9 p.m. now and by 7 p.m. at month's end. Early next month, it will be opposite the Sun in the sky and be visible all night long.
Mars and Jupiter are lost in the Sun's glare much of this month. They form a close conjunction on the morning of February 17, but the pair rises right as the twilight begins to brighten the sky that morning. Mercury joins them later in the month.
Dazzling Orion rises in the east, reminding us that winter is here. His belt points up to Aldebaran, the eye of Taurus, the Bull. The Dog Stars Sirius and Procyon are below Orion in the east. Sirius is the brightest star we ever see at night. To Orion's left as he rises are two stars of similar brightness less than five degrees apart. These are Castor and Pollux, marking the heads of Gemini, the Twins.

Moon Phases in February 2009:
1st Quarter February 2, 5:12 pm
Full Moon February 9, 8:49 pm
Last Quarter February 16, 3:38 pm
New Moon February 24, 7:35 pm
The Full Moon of February 9 almost enters the Earth's shadow. It does enter a region of space called the penumbra, in which the Earth partially blocks the Sun. This event is thus called a penumbral eclipse. However, it begins right as the Moon is about to set here in Houston. What's more, a penumbral eclipse is only a slight darkening of the Moon, barely noticeable in the darkest skies. In the morning twilight of February 9, you won't see much of any difference in the Moon as it sets.

Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow on Groundhog Day, meaning six more weeks of winter. What does this have to do with astronomy? Well, Groundhog Day occurs about halfway between the winter solstice and the vernal (spring) equinox. It therefore occurs near one of the cross-quarter days, called Imbolc by the Celts. The other three are at the beginning of May, August, and November, and they represent points halfway between the quarter days, which are the equinoxes and solstices.
Since we don't want Phil to see his shadow, we clearly don't want sunshine on February 2. If this seems 'backwards,' consider that there is another day when we don't want sunshine or warmth-Christmas.
Houstonians still fondly recall our Christmas Eve snowstorm of 2004, while a similar snowfall on January 24 would have been much less romantic. The French have the saying, "Christmas on the balcony, Easter by the fireplace." Early pagans considered the winter solstice and Imbolc symbols of winter itself. If these days were appropriately wintry, with clouds and cold, then it was a sign that all was in order. Winter, which was happening on time, would end on time. However, if these days were not appropriately wintry, then something was wrong, and a 'remedial' winter would need to occur in springtime. The traditions of the winter solstice and Imbolc were transferred to Christmas and Groundhog Day, respectively. Thus, sunny weather (with shadows) is a bad omen on Groundhog Day, while cloudy weather (no shadows) is a good omen.

Bipolar 'American Idol' Contestant Shelby Tweten Inhabits Carrie Underwood's 'Temporary Home'
It's been a Carrie Underwood-centric day in the country community. Fresh off today's announcement that her new single 'Good Girl' is due to drop at radio next month, one of Underwood's songs was performed on her former stomping grounds of 'American Idol.'
Teenage singer Shelby Tweten, who hails from Mankato, Minn., inhabited Underwood's 'Temporary Home' during her audition in Aspen, Colo. for Season 11 of 'Idol.'
Tweten, who revealed that she has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, bravely shared details of her situation with viewers. She said that when she goes off her meds, she has hypomanic episodes where she shivers and loses control over her body. When that happens, her mom suggests that they sing together and it helps! Tweten said that the dream of 'American Idol' is what keeps her together. That declaration makes this show a little more important and more poignant, doesn't it?
During her pre-performance interview, Tweten's exaggerated Midwestern accent was prominent but she turned country as she belted out Underwood's emotional song. J. Lo got weepy, with the judges tossing out terms like 'so beautiful,' 'so pretty' and 'there's something going on.' That, combined with Tweten's All-American image — like her Taylor Swift-ian ringlets and the pink and purple strapless sundress that showed off her petite figure — means that Shelby Tweten could make a go of it!
Even her name sounds like that of a country superstar, doesn't it?

How to Fill a ListView with any ADO.Net Dataset
Desktop-as-a-Service Designed for Any Cloud ? Nutanix Frame
This article will show how to fill a ListView Control with the data contained in any ADO.Net DataReader. You can use a DataSet bind it to a Grid Control to show the output of a query, but data binding of controls is not the ideal method of accessing the data. A DataSet maintains a copy of the entire resultset in the client systems memory in case you need to make changes to a row. In most cases, users will be updated very few records at any given time, so holding a large resultset in memory to change one or two records is not very efficient. Imagine what the situation would be like with a user that opens multiple resultsets all the time, not bothering to close an old window until his system or the program become unstable. We all know users like that and we most plan accordingly. In addition, the DataSet will not know if the data that the user attempts to modify has been changed on the server until it posts its updates, making it difficult to control how the update conflict will be handled.
Instead of using a bound grid and a DataSet, I prefer to use the listview control with the view set to details mode (.View = lvwResults in VB6) and fill it with the data from a DataReader and disposing of the DataReader as soon as the listview has been filled in. This frees up the resources involved with the DataSet and the bound control. You do have to be careful to structure your queries so that you retrieve the primary key of the table involved if you are planning on allowing updates to the data displayed.
Here is a empty listview waiting for our data. Getting the data into it works in a somewhat different manner in VB .Net than you are used to if you are moving up from previous versions of VB. With VB6, you would get a new ListItem and fill in the data by using code as shown in Example 1.
'Example 1 - Creating a ListItem in VB6 'Assumes a listview control called lvwCustomers exists on form Dim lstStuff AS ListItem Set lstStuff = lvwCustomers.ListItems.Add(, ,"First Columns Output") Set lstStuff = Nothing 'End Example Code
When creating a ListItem in VB .Net, you explicity create the ListItem and then add it to the ListView's Items collection.
'Example 2 - Creating a ListItem in VB.Net 'Assumes a listview control called lvwCustomers exists on form Dim lstStuff AS ListItem = New ListViewItem() lstStuff.Text = "First Columns Output" lvwCustomers.Items.Add(lstStuff) lstStuff = Nothing 'End Example Code
Of course, if you only have one column of data there is no real need for a ListView control is there? Example 3 shows a more typical block of code adding a ListItem to a ListView in VB6.
'Example 3 - Creating a ListItem with SubItems in VB6 'Assumes a listview control called lvwCustomers exists on form Dim lstStuff AS ListItem Set lstStuff = lvwCustomers.ListItems.Add(, ,"First Columns Output") lstStuff.SubItems(1) = "Second Columns Output" lstStuff.SubItems(2) = "Third Columns Output" lstStuff.SubItems(3) = "Fourth Columns Output" lstStuff.SubItems(4) = "Fifth Columns Output" Set lstStuff = Nothing 'End Example Code
It is implicit in the code above that the Add method of the ListItems collection returns a ListItem that contains all the SubItems that the ListView's Columns collection requires. In VB .Net, things are different. We must add the SubItems to our ListItem's SubItems collection ourselves before we attach the ListItem itself to the ListView's Items collection.
'Example 4 - Creating a ListItem with SubItems in VB .Net 'Assumes a listview control called lvwCustomers exists on form Dim lstStuff AS ListItem = New ListViewItem() lstStuff.Text = "First Columns Output" lstStuff.SubItems.Add("Second Columns Output") lstStuff.SubItems.Add("Third Columns Output") lstStuff.SubItems.Add("Fourth Columns Output") lstStuff.SubItems.Add("Fifth Columns Output") lvwCustomers.Items.Add(lstStuff) lstStuff = Nothing 'End Example Code
Now that we know the basics of adding a ListItem to a ListView control in VB.net, lets move on to filling a ListView with data from a DataSet. The basic steps in this procedure are:
- Clear old contents from ListView
- Add Columns to ListView to support the Dataset
- Fill ListView with ListItems containing the data
The code for step one is pure simplicity!
'clearing the contents of the ListView lvwCustomers 'Note that the Clear method removes all ListItems & Columns!!! lvwCustomers.Clear()
That was pretty easy, how hard can the rest of this be? Lets add the Columns to the ListView. We will accomplish this by looping through our DataSet's fields and using the names as the Column titles. Note that the columns are created and then added to the ListView's Columns collection in a very similar fashion to attaching the ListItems to the ListView. Also note that with an ADO Recordset, the Fields collection was the Default Member of the recordset. With an SqlDataReader every method acts upon the Fields collection and you can not explicity call it.
'Adding the needed columns to the ListView 'Using VB .Net and an ADO.Net SqlDataReader named MyData Dim shtFieldCntr As Short Dim lvwColumn As ColumnHeader For shtFieldCntr = 0 To myData.FieldCount() - 1 'Create Column Header lvwColumn = New ColumnHeader() 'Set its text to the name of the field lvwColumn.Text = myData.GetName(shtFieldCntr) 'add Column to ListView MyListView.Columns.Add(lvwColumn) Next lvwColumn = Nothing 'End Example Code
Whew, no sweat and we are almost done. Adding the ListItems to the ListView is a simple matter of looping through the SqlDataReader's records and adding them to the ListView. To add the data to a ListItem we will use an inner loop going through the fields, creating SubItems as we go. Note the test for a Null value before putting the data in the ListItem. The ListItem will throw an exception every time you try and assign a Null value to a Text property.
'Adding the ListItems to the ListView with the data 'Using VB .Net and an ADO.Net SqlDataReader named MyData Dim itmListItem as ListViewItem Dim shtFieldCntr As Short Do While myData.Read itmListItem = New ListViewItem() If myData.IsDBNull(myData(0)) Then itmListItem.Text = "" Else itmListItem.Text = myData(0) End If For shtFieldCntr = 1 To myData.FieldCount() - 1 If myData.IsDBNull(shtFieldCntr) Then itmListItem.SubItems.Add("") Else itmListItem.SubItems.Add(myData.GetString(shtFieldCntr)) End If Next shtCntr MyListView.Items.Add(itmListItem) Loop 'End Example Code
Well, there you have it. The basics of using the ListView Control to Display a DataReaders resultset. Here is a class definition with a method called FillListView that encapsulates it all, in the tradition of OOP.
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Public Class ListViewData
Public Sub FillListView(ByRef MyListView As ListView, _
ByRef myData As SqlDataReader)
Dim lvwColumn As ColumnHeader
Dim itmListItem As ListViewItem
Dim shtCntr As Short
For shtCntr = 0 To myData.FieldCount() - 1
lvwColumn = New ColumnHeader()
lvwColumn.Text = myData.GetName(shtCntr)
Do While myData.Read
itmListItem = New ListViewItem()
itmListItem.Text = myData(0)
For shtCntr = 1 To myData.FieldCount() - 1
If myData.IsDBNull(shtCntr) Then
End If
Next shtCntr
End Sub

Best Laceless Shoes
AbhishekB82190452 - Jun 08, 2019
If you looking for laceless shoes for running these are currently best out there!!
A technical, performance oriented barefoot shoe with a nice, unique aesthetic.

Would have loved to have gotten this one in the darker obsidian color way. Even more so if Nike would release a gum-sole version. Mine are the pre-release light gray with green heels. The 2019 FK RN 3.0 is a pretty radical departure from last year's (what I will refer to) closest equivalent in the 2018 Free Flyknit RN. Loved that shoe and owned 3 pair as well as the 2018 commuter (also an awesome daily shoe.) I wasn't sure about Nike adding the neoprene-like wrap, but I like laceless shoes and so I picked these up as soon as they became available. Before trying them on, I was a little bummed Nike added a liner underneath the Flyknit in the forefoot. One thing I loved about last year's design was how breathable they are. In Texas, it gets pretty hot. Also, I prefer wearing thin no-shoe running socks so the addition of the liner was a little negative in my opinion. I try to avoid going completely barefoot (and occasionally still do) but then they start to stink after a few days and I have to wash them. The addition of the neoprene-like material also seemed like it would add extra heat to my feet. It kind of does. Also not a huge fan of the way the under liner at the front pull-strap occasionally rolls in and has to be adjusted a bit to lay flat so it doesn't annoy me. That being said, they feel good on. The shoe stretches a bit and hugs the feet, but not in a way that is tight or uncomfortable. They're just well-locked in. Under foot, the new sole design not only looks technical and (imho) really cool, but you can really feel with your feet. It really does have that barefoot, flexible feel, more so than ever before… but in a good way. I've not taken them on a trail or anything, but walking on gravel is more massaging than anything and wasn't painful. I almost feel like I can wrap my toes around the edges of things and really grip to the floor, and not as much crud gets stuck in the slits as the old design as I was constantly finding small rocks and decomposed granite from our back yard in the little pattern on the old ones. I won't do more than 5K in them and will mostly use them for lifting and HIIT, but really it's a shoe I can wear all day, and I have rarely worn anything else since getting them (besides on longer runs). Even my flip flops have to see the light of day this spring because these stay on my feet so much! As far as the aesthetic, there really isn't much like them. The closest thing is probably the AquaSock360 Nike made last year. And these do get noticed…The first week I wore them, I'd probably get 5 compliments a day on their looks. I still get occasionally asked about them nearly a month in. To me they look more futuristic than the Marty McFly inspired Adapts! These do tend to show a bit of dirt. Mine are light in color but they wash pretty easily and I have washed them twice since picking them up without any issues regarding shrinkage or coming apart (always use cold water delicate cycle with a shoe bag and air dry!). There is slight dirt staining where the Flyknit forms around my outer small toe and forefoot, but not very noticeable after washing. This probably from mat drills and occasionally sitting on floors. One of the little Nike logos near the heel is peeling a little bit, but even if it came off it wouldn't bother me much because it's small and insignificant. Since the little icon is a stiffer plastic glued to a highly flexible material, I kinda figured this may happen at some point but again, NBD. I did just pick up the 5.0s in that darker color way and sole. I look forward to trying those out as my wife picked up a pair and she likes hers. But back to the 3.0: the omission of the neoprene overlay for perhaps a thicker, elastic Flyknit overlay and omission of the forefoot liner would have made this a 5 star shoe, but Nike R&D likely used the materials they did to for a more locked in feel, so I can't knock it too much. I just miss how breathable the outgoing shoe was, but I don't miss the laces as those would come untied quite often for some reason. I'd still highly recommend for shorter runs, daily use and training to be a ninja…or just training to become a better athlete. It's refreshing that Nike is pushing form and materials to truly innovate and barring the occasional issue (which Nike is always responsive with great customer service) I will continue to be a loyal Nike supporter.
