Collect cloud-scale telemetry data from websites, applications, and devices
- Log millions of events per second in near real time
- Automatically send telemetry data to storage
- Use time-based event buffering
- Get a managed service with elastic scale
- Access a series of platforms using native client libraries
- Seamlessly integrate with other Azure services
Stream millions of events per second
Event Hubs is a hyper-scale telemetry ingestion service that collects, transfers, and stores millions of events. As a distributed streaming platform, it offers users low latency and configurable time retention, which enables users to ingest large amounts of telemetry data into the cloud and read the data from multiple applications using publish-subscribe semantics.
Handle real-time and batch processing in the same data stream
Use the Event Hubs Capture feature, which enables a single stream to support real-time and batch-based pipelines, and reduces the complexity of solutions. Build for today's batch processing on a platform that supports tomorrow's real-time analytics and processing. Event Hubs Capture is the easiest way to load data into Azure.
Take advantage of a fully managed Platform as a Service
Event Hubs is a fully managed service; there are no servers to maintain and no software licenses to get. Pricing is simple and easy. Event Hubs enables users to focus on getting value from their telemetry data instead of gathering the data.
Handle volume, variety, and velocity
Big Data originates from many sources with different load distributions. For example, thermostats that produce telemetry data every few minutes, application performance counters that generate events every second, and mobile apps that capture telemetry data for every customer's action. Event Hubs is a fully managed service that ingests events with elastic scale based on different load distributions and spikes.
Develop across platforms with multi-language support
Event Hubs uses Premium Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) to enable interoperability and binary compatibility across platforms, while also supporting HTTPS for data ingress. With native clients in Java and .NET, it's easy to get started with Event Hubs. You can also integrate with Azure Services (including Stream Analytics and Virtual Machines), while building rich serverless workflows. There is also a strong Event Hubs open-source community that's continually creating new adapters and connectors for popular platforms such as Apache NiFi and Elastic Stack.

An Irrevocable Triumph: A Midnight Taxi
↑ previous ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. next ↑
The hour hovered around midnight and my mother slept in her bedroom. I cried in mine. I often cried privately at home (and publicly at school). My mother lent ample cause to my distress—rejecting my individuality, issuing tirades at my expense, and being unwilling to take responsibility for the harm she perpetrated. At 15, having worked with LICSWs (social workers/psychotherapists) and the public school psychologist for years, I knew that my mental health presented crises. No practitioner ever reported a diagnosis to me, but I had read about Major Depression, and I knew I lived with it.
I left my house in the middle of the night, taking a taxi to the Emergency Room at Franklin General Hospital. The explanatory note that I left on the kitchen table read: I went to the hospital to find out why I get so sad all the time.
Because I was underage, the hospital could not admit me without parental consent. I feared my mother's wrath were the hospital to call in the wee hours and wake her. As second thoughts arose, regarding whether she would consent to my initiation of an inpatient stay or perceive this as a public embarrassment, a reproach for her parenting skills, and spurning of our home life, I opted not to wait until morning only to have her come and get me.
I needed the power of an authority on my side. Not finding any, I aborted this request for help and opted to walk home, arriving home by dawn, removing the note from the kitchen table, and returning to sleep with voiceless desperation. What child takes herself to the Emergency Room and asks for a psychiatric admission?
What Strength! My gumption to call a taxi and walk myself into an ER manifested maturity and sheer courage. By yielding to my vulnerability and taking measures to ask for help, I demonstrated fortitude. The resourcefulness to seek medical help reflected the asset of education.
What Endurance! I had carried my burden—albeit with copious tears—with keen personal insight. My perseverance despite crushing emotional pain spoke to tremendous patience. The patience did not feel like patience, or like any asset at all, yet somehow day upon day my mind continued to trouble-shoot and problem solve.
What Power! In the face of mental illness, there seemed to be absolute powerlessness—a sickness that I could not control. This truth of this perception prevailed for me. Yet I owned my response. I possessed the power to choose the next right step for me and the autonomy—the self-governance—to take it.
The failure of my orchestration to get medical help frustrated, disappointed, and dismayed me, but the attempt spoke to an irrevocable triumph: I had advocated for myself. Resourcefulness, insight, autonomy, and self-advocacy facilitated a heroism that, at the time, I could not appreciate but today is undeniable.
Heroism can be vividly dramatic, as in my story, and it can be ordinarily extraordinary. Among the nine competencies—including STRENGTH – ENDURANCE – POWER—heroism develops through grave hardship and through unpretentious dedication. We cultivate it through examination of how we focus our time and attention, how patterns of relationship and work contribute to our personal growth, and how our reactions and decisions take root and take wing. Do you know that we were born to be our own HEROES?
Did you hesitate to answer? Did you answer "yes" resolutely? HEROES Resiliency Fitness Training guides the co-creative process of personal development that supports resiliency and thriving. I can facilitate your cultivation of Strength, Endurance, Power, and more through private resiliency coaching—Co-Creative Transformation. Contact me, Vanessa Landau, Resiliency Coach,, and we will work together to invite your HEROISM!

text: I am strict with my training, exercise daily and rarely skip a workout. I whole-heartedly endorse strength training, and workout in my own home gym or atttend a kettlebell class daily, on top of my daily cardio session. I like to shake things up as our bodies adapt to routine far too easily – and attend Body Tec sessions in JHB or CPT, and SWEAT 1000 classes. In general, it's a minimum each of cardio and strength training 3 times a week, usually more.

Fat Lip Trail Race
VHTRC member Evan Fisher was the first finisher at the inaugural PB&J 50K, held on a picture-perfect fall day on the trails of Prince William Forest Park on Saturday October 18. Evan completed the two-loop course in 4:23. Club members AJ Cillo and James Whiteside joined Evan on the finisher's podium, with finishing times of 4:35 and 4:58 respectively.
The winner of the women's race was a rather surprised Maryellen Hutchins. Maryellen came in to the finish in 6:40, and could not be convinced that she had won. Maryellen, you did. VHTRC members Sara Fanous and Laura Drake rolled in shortly after, and both clearly enjoyed their times on the PWF trails so much that each logged some bonus miles before their finishes.
Why the "Fat Lip Trail Race"? A picture speaks a thousand words . . .
RD Gary Knipling and a bee, both eager to sip from the same titrated beverage. The bee won. The good news is that by the time Gary had completed his valuable oversight duties out in the field and he had returned to the finish line area, the swelling had gone down considerably. And in case you are curious, Gary is just about uniquely qualified to make the following observation: "While a bee sting on the lip can hurt, a poisonous snake bite burns like the sting of 20 bees."
This race was created to meet several perceived needs. The need for an accessible, non-technical fall 50k in the DC area. The need for a training race leading into the big November 50 milers that would be as runnable as they are. Finally, a desire to make more runners aware of what a great trail running resource they have in Prince William Forest Park. So hopefully all of these goals were accomplished for those who were able to come out for this race! There was much excited and/or apprehensive talk at the finish line of upcoming races at Stone Mill, Masochist and JFK. The rather low 60 percent finishing rate for a race of this nature, on a gorgeous day (sunny, low 50s to upper 60s) and over a dry and easy course, would further indicate that many runners were looking for a supported training race of this nature.
We were delighted to welcome back the Queen of Prince William Forest Park, and one of the co-founders of the PB&J training runs, Jo Leigh Lockner, who flew in from Florida to be at the race, to revisit her former haunts, and to reconnect with so many friends. Jo helped at the start by "issuing" the runners' race numbers - each number was Sharpied on the runners hand, followed by her trademarked smiley face.
The aid station at the end of the Mawavi road out-and-back section of the course (roughly 8 miles in to both loops) was the Boys Town stop in the race. While Dan Rose and Jack Kurisky were there, the aid station was dominated by The Boyz: J.P., Jack's son; Danny, Dan Aghdam's son; and Josiah, Dave Herring's son. The aid station at the Turkey Run Education Center (TREC - approximately 13 miles in both loops), was the location of the Great Bee Sting, and other than Gary's trailhead escort service for each runner, it was manned by Bernard Pesjak and Dan Aghdam. The turnaround and finish line was overseen by Kari Cillo and by the race sweep, Nick Combs. Big thanks to all of the volunteers who stepped up to make this race possible!

Advent calendars are more popular than Cardi B. And here are 24 of them to get most excited about.
Despite its champagne and endless cavorting, December has its downsides. An inordinate amount of money has been spent on subpar presents. Clothes are getting smaller, waistlines bigger - one or the other. And contrary to caveating all New Year's Eve conversations with "I hate New Year's Eve, I'm staying in," you're miffed that not a single one of the six plans percolating are in danger of coming to fruition.
And, breathe. Respite is needed. And daily respite at that. Every day, every hour - on the hour were you to buy each and every one of the advent calendars below (though that's not something we condone, the maths does make perfect sense). Boxes of beauty so bountiful, so sparkling, and with product either super sized (score!) or super shrunk (sweet!), that they don't hang around for long. For many of them, people queue round the block, and for a couple, people camp out as if they were waiting for a Supreme collaboration to drop. Such is the hype of the beauty advent that waiting lists open months before, and BURO. staffers - our HQ being within spitting distance of Liberty - had to turn ourselves sideways every which way just to make it down the street when theirs launched.
What could be better than 24 days of beauty advent? 24 x 24 days of beauty advent, that's what. Here, a stirling set of our advent calendar of advent calendar favourites, one for every day till Christmas.

Acqua di Parma Beauty Advent Calendar, £325
Diptyque Advent Calendar, £320
Because… To add another decision in a month laden with decisions seems wildly unfair.

Wilmington pub melts hearts with generous offer during snowy weather
PUBLISHED: 12:45 07 March 2018
A Wilmington pub found ways to make life easier for people in need of support during the freezing conditions last week, and have been met with plenty of praise for their kind proposal.
The Horse and Groom, at Leyton Cross Road in Dartford, offered to help some of the area's most vulnerable residents stay well-fed during the snowy weather by offering to provide them with a warm meal.
With flood risks, black ice alerts and snow preventing many from getting out and about during the few days of the icy weather, pub staff decided to do what they could to help out the local community.
The effects of Storm Emma were felt on a larger scale by the elderly and infirm, and so staff spread some community spirit by posting a message on their Facebook page an offer of a delicious homemade lamb stew to anyone in need.
The pub also invited those in need to either enjoy the meal with locals at the pub itself, or to arrange a delivery of the food to be taken to their door.
The post, which has been shared nearly 400 times, had hundreds commenting, praising the pub stuff for their thoughtfulness.
Sarah Prockter on Facebook wrote "I cannot thank Paul and his head chef Laura enough.
"I phoned them tonight with a request for food for a 91 year old couple opposite me and they delivered without fail.
"The couple were so pleased and grateful. The kindness of The Horse and Groom is amazing. Thank you."
Paul Giles, general manager of the pub, said: "We have been overwhelmed by the response our offer has had, which has been wonderful.
"We're very appreciative of the community of Wilmington and the surrounding areas, who support us 365 days of the year.
"For us to do a small gesture like delivering a hot dinner at home during this snowy weather is just a small way of us giving back to the locals who mean so much to us here at The Horse and Groom."

WWOOF-USA is proud to announce that this year's grants were awarded to 13 dedicated host farms through our organization's 5th annual Small Farm Grant Program.
Elisabeth Kosnik from Austria received a doctor's degree at the University of Wellington (New Zealand) in 2013 for her thesis "WWOOF, Environmentalism and Ecotopia: Alternative Social Practices between Ideal and Reality".
Following the call for Host Grant Program, FoWO is happy to announce the winner.
WWOOF Togo will celebrate 5 years anniversary by planting trees but they need a little help.
WWOOF has developed very organically over the last 45 years!
Report from a WWOOF host farmer's meeting in the middle of Germany. "Mutual cooperation among host farms and their integration into WWOOF Germany coordination will create a strong network that will benefit our WWOOFers.".
WWOOF comes in as a movement that aims to join organic farmers and growers with volunteers in an effort to increase cultural understanding. It's all about constructing a global community. Here's all about WWOOF.
Are you dying to travel the world, but aren't sure how to fund your multi-city or multi-country adventure? For over 40 years, students, gap year kids and interested adults have donated their time to WWOOFing (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms) in exchange for food and housing all over the world.
It's become a rite of passage for college grads, gap year kids, and the agri-curious of all ages to spend a few weeks or months WWOOFing (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms) overseas.
When it comes to WWOOFing, you just have to roll with it.

Two University of Minnesota faculty members, both MSI PIs, have been named 2018 Fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). They will be honored at the spring meeting of the AAAS on February 2019.
The new Fellows are:
- Carol Ishimaru (professor, Plant Pathology). Professor Ishimaru uses MSI resources to support research using a combination of DNA sequencing approaches to study diversity within bacterial plant pathogens that impact Minnesota crops.
- Natalia Tretyakova (professor, Medicinal Chemistry). Professor Tretyakova is using MSI for -omics research for a variety of projects seeking to understand epigenetic regulation in cells, possible protective agents against myocardial infarction, and the relationship between inflammation and lung cancer development.
An article about both researchers appears on the University of Minnesota News website: The University of Minnesota and AAAS Announce 2018 Fellows.

Automated decision-making has received a lot of bad press in recent years, mostly because people don't trust the technology behind it. A big part of that mistrust is due to black box AI, which produces outcomes from the murky depths of data, using algorithms. Explainable AI, however, is the bright future of artificial intelligence for business.
How? Exactly.
As any maths teacher will tell you, writing the answers won't get you the best grade. You have to show your working to get top marks.
What is 'black box' AI?
Deep learning networks are made of a huge number of connections, and in the middle of the process sits lots of data and the algorithms that interpret that data. Black box AI is where we understand the inputs and we know the outcomes, but we don't know how the AI has arrived from A to B.
For example, automated online diagnostics in the healthcare industry have been found to misdiagnose patients or operate too cautiously. In short, a headache could mean cancer, but it doesn't always mean cancer.
Part of the problem is the lack of information on why the system suggested one diagnosis and not another. There isn't enough clarity.
Some critical use cases of black box AI exist in healthcare to the military, where AI technologies are used in life and death situations. Without transparency, fear of the unknown can mean potentially revolutionary technology is subjected to heavy legal ramifications, hindering progress. There needs to be the right legislation around machine learning and AI to protect everyone (and everything) but it needs to be based on facts, not fear.
Good news. It doesn't have to be this way.
What is explainable AI?
Explainable AI, as opposed to black box AI, provides transparency for the part of the artificial intelligence process where algorithms interpret data.
This means two main business problems are solved:
- Accountability – we know how an automated decision is reached and can trace the path of reasoning if needed.
- Auditability – we can review processes, test, and refine them more accurately, and predict and prevent future failures or gaps.
Ultimately, by opening up the black box of AI, we can build trust and, well, explainability.
Defining 'explainable'
You know how to use a phone. You know something about its workings, its sources, what it can do and what it can't. But, if someone asked the average person to build a phone, they probably wouldn't know where to start.
Just because something is 'explainable', that doesn't mean it has to be understood in the minutiae by everyone involved. It does mean that if someone needed further information, the chain of connections is available, transparent and presented in a digestible way. Think of it as a matter of translating automation-speak into human-speak.
We all use automated systems at some point. Many businesses already use AI for speeding up repetitive tasks and improving employee productivity.
However, explainable AI is needed as we expand how AI is used. As AI is applied to more significant tasks, which could affect things like future revenue streams for a business, there is greater call for ease-of-use and clear accountability.
As we move forward with explainable artificial intelligence programs and begin to build better technologies, the demand for transparency will grow, and it will come from all sorts of sources, from policy-makers to CEOs. People want to make well-informed decisions, and to do that, they need the facts.
Explainable AI with Ditto
Our unique technology can deliver value that other AI systems cannot: information explained in a way that any human can readily comprehend. If we seem edgy, we want you to know that AI has every chance of improving human capabilities and knowledge, and when by removing the black box of AI, we can begin to build a brighter, better understood world.

Permit Processing System
We have invested two decades of experience into implementing an end-to-end flight permit management system for Bangladesh airspace known as Permit Operations Database (POD). As part of Bangladesh's Digital 2020 vision, we have deployed the industry's only electronic flight permit acquisition system through a structured architecture. POD enhances an operator's flight planning procedures and vastly increases operational performance of their fleet. This system is the country's one and only Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) module with guaranteed proof of performance.

Digitisation – the collection, conversion, storage and sharing of data and the use of digital technologies to collect and manage information about individuals from affected communities – increasingly shapes understandings of need and the response to emergencies. 2 This use of digital technologies produces 'digital bodies' – images, information, biometrics and other data stored in digital space – that represent, track, quantify and monitor the

If information is a form of aid, then it comes at a cost, just like water, food, medicine and other supplies, and the free provision of information should not be assumed, even in a crisis. Indeed, the long-term needs of the crisis-affected community might be served better by NGOs and other actors providing paid work to
communities affected by disaster. Following the work of organisations including the CDAC Network, Internews and BBC Media Action, we know that this is a vital form of aid: people need information as they need water, food, medicine and shelter. Information can save lives, build resilience, support livelihoods and empower ( Hannides, 2015 : 9). Information provision should be prioritised within all humanitarian responses.

New Record Set For Dublin Property Market
Sales at Lansdowne Place, Chartered Land's luxury residential development in Ballsbridge, have surpassed targets with over €100 million secured from sales to date. The prices achieved equate to over €1,000 per sq. ft. setting new records for the Dublin property market.
The Templeton, which was the first building to come on the market, and The Blake, launched in September, are now substantially sold out. Both are stand-alone pavilion style buildings fronting directly on to Lansdowne Road. Prices here for the one, two and three bedroom apartments were from €825,000 to €2.1 million, and from €2.15 million for the penthouses.
Sales are very well advanced in The Barrington, the third building on the market. While the larger two bedroom apartments and two bedroom + study units are sold out, there are still several spacious two bedroom apartments, from 954 sq. ft. to 1,627 sq. ft. available. Prices start at €900,000. Also, there are some one bedroom apartments from 703 sq. ft. starting at €825,000 on offer.
Situated on the corner of Lansdowne Road and Shelbourne Road, Lansdowne Place is being developed on the site of the former Berkeley Court Hotel. This site was also previously home to the Trinity College Botanic Gardens.
Construction at the site continues apace with the concrete roof of the first of the seven buildings, The Templeton, poured this week. Work is now underway on the façade, windows and interiors, with completion scheduled for late summer 2018.
The Templeton will also house the Residents' Amenities which will be offered exclusively to residents in Lansdowne Place. Extending to 5,000 sq. ft. over two floors, these facilities are of a standard not previously seen in Dublin.
Andrew Gunne, Chief Executive, Chartered Land, said: "We are delighted with the interest in Lansdowne Place and the sales achieved to date. Purchasers have been attracted by the unique location and the quality of the apartments, which are unrivalled in Ireland and compete with the very best of international standards."
When fully complete, Lansdowne Place will have a total of 217 apartments, including 24 penthouses, all designed by Irish architects O'Mahony Pike and interior architects, Goddard Littlefair. Further sales phases will be launched during 2018 in line with the build programme and it is expected that all construction in Lansdowne Place will be finished by the end of 2019.

Industry news and IVS stats, Tourism Australia and the World CupJuly 25th, 2018 | | Events
The quarterly International Visitor Survey was published on 19 July for the year ending 31 March 2018.
Previous trends are continuing with overall tourism growing strongly (+8%) off the back of Chinese visitation whilst the backpacker market is weak to declining (nights in all forms of accommodation down 4.1%). By region big declines for backpacker nights in Perth (-28%) and Darwin (-21%). Overall more visitors staying with friends and relatives (+7% and 30.5% of all overnights) and rental house/unit (+1% and 39% of all overnights). Nights in hostels at 12.8million up 1.4% and 4.8% of all overnights).
In other news –
–Tourism Australia provided an industry briefing on recent market research in Europe on 18
July which pointed to relatively low awareness of the Australian working holiday visa
opportunity but no significant impediments (e.g. safety, backpacker tax, visa fee).
The final $2.5m tranche of the $10m working holiday visa marketing budget is yet to be committed
but is likely to be spent in the major UK, Germany, France, Italy markets.
-There is a theory supported by some data from previous World Cups that the event is a
dampener on long haul travel to destinations where the event cannot be shared with friends
at home and is broadcast at antisocial hours. The next two months will show if there is any
upturn now that the event has finished.
-Australia has now overtaken the UK to become the world's second biggest destination for
international students after the US.

Lung Cancer Risks for Non-smokersOctober 31, 2019
As many as 20% of people who die from lung cancer in the United States every year have never smoked or used any other form of tobacco. In fact, if lung cancer in non-smokers had its own separate category, it would rank among the top 10 fatal cancers in the United States.
Lung cancer happens because cells in the lung mutate or change. Most often those changes happen from breathing in harmful chemicals in the air. While it's true that staying away from tobacco is the most important thing any of us can do to lower our risk of getting lung cancer, there are also other risk factors. And some people who get lung cancer have no known risk factors.
Researchers continue to make progress in understanding what can cause lung cancer in people who have never used tobacco:
- Radon gas. The leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers is exposure to radon gas, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It accounts for about 21,000 deaths from lung cancer each year. About 2,900 of these deaths happen among people who never smoked. Radon occurs naturally outdoors in harmless amounts, but sometimes becomes concentrated in homes built on soil with natural uranium deposits. Studies have found that the risk of lung cancer is higher in people who have lived for many years in a radon-contaminated house. Because radon gas can't be seen or smelled, the only way to know whether it's a problem in your home is to test for it. A Citizen's Guide to Radon explains how to test your home for radon easily and inexpensively, as well as what to do if your levels are too high.
- Secondhand smoke. Each year, about 7,000 adults die of lung cancer as a result of breathing secondhand smoke. Laws that ban smoking in public places have helped to reduce this danger. The American Cancer Society Cancer Action NetworkSM (ACS CAN) - the nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy affiliate of the American Cancer Society - is working to expand and strengthen these laws to further protect both people who smoke and those who don't from the dangers of secondhand smoke.
- Cancer-causing agents at work. Some people are exposed to carcinogens (cancer-causing agents) such as arsenic, asbestos and diesel exhaust at their workplace. Work-related exposure to such cancer-causing materials has decreased as the government and industry have taken steps to help protect workers. Still, if you work around these agents, be careful to limit your exposure whenever possible.
- Air pollution. Researchers have known for a long time that both indoor and outdoor air pollution can contribute to lung cancer. The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies outdoor air pollution as a carcinogen. However, it's believed the risk of lung cancer associated with air pollution is lower in the US than in many other countries because of policies that have helped to lower the levels of exposure.
- Gene mutations. Researchers are learning more about what causes cells to become cancerous, and how lung cancer cells differ between people who have never smoked and those who smoke. Understanding how gene changes cause lung cancer cells to grow has helped researchers develop targeted therapies, drugs that specifically attack cells with these mutations.
Lifestyle changes to lower risk
Non-smokers avoid the greatest risk factor for lung cancer. But they can make some lifestyle changes to help reduce their risk even more.
In addition to testing your home for radon, avoiding secondhand smoke, and limiting exposures to carcinogens at work , eating a healthy diet with lots of fruits and vegetables may also help reduce your risk of lung cancer. Some evidence suggests that a diet high in fruits and vegetables may help protect against lung cancer in people who smoke and non-smokers.

Guingamp Vs PSG Live stream: click here to watch this match live
Guingamp are still well within the mix for a European place but we can't escape the fact that their form has been poor recently. Just one victory in a month has seen the club drop to 6th spot and are well off the pace of current Ligue 1 leaders Nice. They have a great home record but again if we look at the previous few weeks they have one win from their past 3 outings at home. The problem for them is lack of goals, just 9 at home in 8 matches.
On the flip side, Unai Emery's PSG side has not won in two matches which is considerable for the reigning French champions. A shock 3–0 defeat on the road to Montpellier was followed by a 2–2 home draw with Nice. But the match against Nice seemed like some sort of victory given that they were 2–0 behind. PSG also received the news that they would play Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League playy-offs, so it's all came thick and fast for the club who find themselves in 3rd spot and 4 points behind Nice.
Guingamp Vs PSG: Head-to-Head Stats
PSG have won four, drawn one, and lost one of their last six meetings with Guingamp.
Guingamp Vs PSG French Ligue 1 2016–2017: Prediction and Betting tips
Guingamp's fantastic home form has been built on a solid defensive performance. They have conceded just four goals in their eight home fixtures and seen fewer than three goals in total in seven of them. PSG have struggled going forward away from home as well, and with eight of the last ten matches between these teams resulting in fewer than three goals backing Under 2.5 Goals at 1/1 looks great choice here.

Can Live Templates grab all the variables in a php function? Follow
I'm wanting to have a quick way to logDebugHide all the parameters passed in to a function. Currently I'm using a macro that goes up two lines, copies that line, does a preg_match to find all the parameters, and logdebugs all the parameters using a loop.
For example, if I had the following code:
function myfunc($param1,$param2,$param3)
If I put my cursor right after the 3rd line (the line after the bracket), it would print out the following:
preg_match('/\$[_a-zA-Z1-9]*/','function myfunc($param1,$param2,$param3)',$matches);
foreach($matches as $match)
$var_name = str_replace('$','',$match);
It's an imperfect solution because:
1. It messes up if a parameter has a default value. (i.e. myfunc($param1 = "hi"))
2. It takes a couple seconds for all these lines to print out and I'd rather it just be automatic.
Is there a way to do this in Live Templates?
PhpStorm Version: 3.0.2
(I'm on a Mac)
Sorry maybe I am misunderstanding you but I dont think live templates are used for debugging they are typically used as code snippets
use func_num_args(),func_get_arg(), and func_get_args() to reach arguments from your snippet?
Yeah, that's the best thing I've found so far too. The problem is that you can't also get the names of the variables to logdebug them. The function get_defined_vars() will actually give you an array with the names of variables as the keys and the values as the values, which is useful. But it also grabs all global variables if you have any. Thanks for your help!
Thanks, I know it's supposed to be for code snippets. It's just that I need to logdebughide all the parameters in a function so often that I want to make it a code snippet.

Meet 20 year old Devol, college student at Indiana University
Tell us a little about yourself!
I was born and raised in the small city of Marion, Indiana. I am currently a Junior at Indiana University studying Arts Management with a focus in music and a minor in music through the Jacobs School of Music. One of my career goals is to become a record label executive working more specifically with the R&B and Hip-Hop genres. I am a member of Chi Alpha Epsilon Academic Honor Society and I am the Resident Assistant/advisor for the Atkins Living Learning Center; the only residential program designed for the research, exploration, and appreciation of the African American culture on IU's campus.
How exposed are you to natural hair on a daily basis?
I see ladies with natural hair every day on campus. A lot of my colleagues have made or are making the transition to unprocessed hair.
What do you think about a woman who chooses to embrace her natural hair?
I applaud her. I hear ladies talking about how rough the beginning stages are and I commend the ladies for their patience and dedication. Also, I feel like ladies whom embrace their natural hair are more confident because they dare to stray from the norm of society. These ladies take pride in their hair; therefore, take pride in themselves.
In your opinion, what makes natural hair unique?
Natural hair is unique because there are so many things you can do with it. Just hearing ladies talk, I have noticed that there are many styles and textures of natural hair. Some ladies have very kinky and curly hair and they sport afros. Other ladies have straight hair and can make it wavy and bouncy. Most times, I see ladies try new hairdos, which often times is really cool.
What do you think about sisters who are consider going natural & rocking her natural texture?
As I said before, I applaud them all the way. I was watching the movie, Good Hair with some of my residents yesterday and it was shocking that so many mothers put perms in their daughters' hair at such a young age. Now that my colleagues are old enough to start making their own decisions about their hair, I applaud those that go against the grain and decide to go natural (even though this is becoming more popular).
In terms of hair texture, length, style, etc. - do you have a preference?
Me personally, I do not have a preference. All forms of natural hair (IF IT IS KEPT UP) are attractive to me. It's really interesting to see the different styles and dos.
What are some of your favorite natural hairstyles?
My favorite natural hair styles are twists, braids, and curls.
What message would you like to share with Natural Women?
It is really attractive when ladies are in-tune with their heritage and their hair. Keep doing you and stay away from the creamy crack!

A new, 38,000 sf, two-story Technical Services Building (TSB) provided office space, conference rooms, document control, reception, maintenance, and support areas for around 120 people. The Clinical Trial Manufacturing (CTM) component consisted of retrofitting 9,000 sf of existing office space located within Seqirus' Viral Pilot Plant (VPP). New construction provided clean room production space for formulation, filling (vial and pre-filled syringe), lyophilization and hand-packaging operations. The Warehouse High Density Vertical Storage component included the procurement and installation of six (6) vertical storage units. Each vertical storage unit optimizes storage and accessibility of production and packaging materials, measures the stored material's weight and dimensions, and mechanically conveys the tray to a stacked location.

An Unqualified Mother's opinion of Autism Treatments
An Autism diagnosis can be scary, especially for a parent. You don't know where to look. A good pediatrician may be able to explain to you that autism is mainly genetic genes link but there are still questions you may want ask.
A google search will provide you with a huge amount of questions rather than answers. The blame game sets in, was in something you did wrong in pregnancy, is it something wrong you did as a parent, why is this happening, is it my fault? The answer is no, you did nothing. More Googling can get you blaming others, the wrong process during birth, the antibiotics they needed for an infection. The vaccinations? A mixture of denial, sadness and anger can drive you into a whole new set of problems. You fail to reach that essential aspect of the process, and this is the last stage, acceptance.
This is a good list of dangerous Autism treatments dangerous autism treatments
Parental Pressure: "There are so many positive results with Autism Treatments. My child needs me to get him the best treatment possible. Its my responsibility to get him as normal as possible, so he doesn't end up in a "group home" as an adult"? I hear the above quoted a lot, unfortunately it is sad and misinformed, and here is why: Places that advertise "Autism treatments" want your money. Like all others its a business. If they simply said, your kid might take longer than others, but he will get there, and you can never predict he won't have a full filling independent adult life, would they have a business? Of course not.
"But my son's prognosis was very grim. His pediatrician told me he will probably never communicate. He will always be severely autistic, these treatments are my only hope for a miracle". If your doctor told you that, I would ask him the following question back "where have you hidden your time machine". All kids progress, some faster than others, but they all do. Speech therapy, occupational therapy, early intervention, they can all do wonders. Yes life can be tough. I won't pretend to understand what it must be like to have a child with classic or severe autism. But progression is always possible. Autistic kids can flourish so much. There is a whole host of Autistic talent on my friend's website i don't need a cure blogspot
"But when I go onto autism treatment sites, I see so much progress. I see developing new skills all the time, parents celebrating achievements and vouching for the product". Go on to Autism support groups which aren't treatment based. You will see exactly the same thing, only this time it is the child being praised, not the product. This is from what I have witnessed anyway. "But, there is no mention of ATEC scale numbers going down?" Check out this link: http://www.bancdmms.com/#!atec-scale—not-a-reliable-source/c1qw6
What about " the recovered children"
Since more evidence is proving autism is genetic, the theory of a recovery seems to ask more questions than answer them.
The most obvious to me is that these children were actually misdiagnosed. From stories told by parents, many of them seem to show very similar symptoms, always gut problems, and always extreme behavioral problems, also often OCD type behavior. Do these symptoms always match autism? No. But since pediatricians have to follow a strict worldwide DSM 5 guideline, I guess misdiagnosis will be few and far between. Some conditions do appear to mimic autistic traits, such as PANDAS, Vitamin B12 deficiencies Apraxia, etc, so I guess it could be plausible.
The other theories I have, are both age and coping abilities, and unfortunately repression.
Autism is not a static condition. Sometimes in life traits seem to be a lot more obvious than other times. At a young age, non verbal kids can show lots of traits, these may ease as language develops. Again, the social aspect may return as being different from peers as play turns into conversation. Coping mechanisms change as the child gets older.
Repression, and this is the sad aspect, many kids learn to hide their traits due to parental pressure, they thrive to hide their personality and traits. This can very much cause PTSD in later life, unfortunately.
So let's have a closer look: What do Autism treatments often claim is the cause, or an issue with Autism:
Vaccines – Do vaccinations cause autism? No! Check link: are vaccines dangerous or necessary
A yeast infection is caused by Candida, which is a type of fungus. Thought I would clarify that, as I get that all mixed up.
Candida overload – This is often associated with Autism
Again, is it true, will it help to try?
first read this link: http://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/candida-and-fake-illnesses/Basically what it is saying is that candida would only present as an overgrowth if your child was undergoing Chemotherapy, or had a very low immunity such as Advanced Stage Aids.
This is the science based link.
Here another link: http://www.tacanow.org/family-resources/what-is-yeast-overgrowth/. This presents yeast as being present, as it shows specific behavioral issues associated with yeast. Again no real science backing, but a link which seems to connect behavioral issues with yeast?? Hum, are there a lot of autistic traits here?? Not really! Ching ching goes the till. Sorry, will try and remain open minded.
My advice would be, has your child got a very low immunity? If he has, perhaps think about getting him tested if you really want and can afford it. A simple stools test, I guess won't harm anything but your wallet.
If it comes back positive , get some anti fungal medication with less sugar in the diet? If you really feel it is necessary. A change in diet might help, I guess, but overall I am not convinced by the "candida theory" at all. Some people do swear by it, so I can't vouch for them. We have a big selection of Science based links in our website, please read them first though, without making any rash decisions. http://www.bancdmms.com/#!autism-and-diet/c20tw
Vitamins, I do get this, our kids often have a very restricted diet, so a Multi vitamin might help. My son, to this day, still takes an omega 3 supplement, and although not scientifically proven does seem to help. Magnesium, pro biotics, extra zinc, other things, hum, again an expensive route that may help with certain aspects of your child's life, but I would certainly recommend testing done for deficiencies before you even start. A healthy diet if possible would be the best option. Any vitamin supplement which states it will increase speech, development or "cure" autism, in my opinion, is a lie. Vitamin supplements are a huge business, which many critics would say can have an amazing placebo effect
The Big Diet Debate
About that child who recovered on a GCFC diet? Mom is delighted, she tells the world, writes a book, she is convinced autism is a "gut disease" Well I guess that response to me would be, good for them. I can't put myself in her life. I have my doubts that her kid was ever autistic, perhaps a serious food allergy was causing her child autistic type traits, or perhaps he has simply got that bit older, and presently doesn't show enough traits to justify a diagnosis just now? Who knows. But that's one child, and all kids are different. And certainly doesn't prove any theory that autism is all connected to the gut, in my opinion.
But people say Autism is a "gut" problem. I have heard many parents complaining of their children screaming in pain due to their 'Autism'???, This makes no sense to me. "All our kids all have serious stomach problems. It's called 'leaky gut'". Ok , firstly not all kids have stomach problems. I am sorry if your does. Maybe its a false comparison, but for me, its like saying Downs syndrome is a heart problem.
Obviously no one would agree with that statement either. Stomach and immunity problems can come with Autism. Heart problems can come with Downs Syndrome. Stomach problems can be a co morbid condition of autism. If your child appears to have, or complains of constantly having a sore stomach. If his bowels aren't soft enough and regular enough, of course you need to help him with it. Don't let the doctor just put it down to being part of "Autism". I see a lot of parents complaining in Facebook groups of conventional medicine writing off autistic kids, with everything being due to " Autism", which is disgraceful and very misinformed. With my limited knowledge of laxatives, modern medicine might not have all the answers. Obviously there can be a huge connection between diet and gut problems. Then change the diet, try GCFC, try GAPS if you have to, it MAY result in less behavioral issues, and sensory issues due to your child not being in pain, but please, please don't see that as your child's autism being 'healed'. That is the completely wrong way to view it. Again, there are a multitude of science papers which dismiss any connection with Autism and diet. See below. The only proved Science based connection to restrict your diet from Gluten etc, is if you have Coliac Disease, or another diagnosed Gluten Intolerance. But I think its always good to keep an open mind.
The MTHFR gene ( no its not made up) mutation seems to be the next topic anti vaxxers have grasped upon, stating, that if you have this gene and get vaccinated you can get develop Autism. But despite its horrible name, this gene appears to be present in many of us. Also check this website http://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/gene/MTHFR No mention of bad reactions to vaccines. Again, I remind you, I have a limited knowledge of science.
So having said all that, here is a slightly different perspective:
Autoimmunity and histamine issues ?? Some people on the autistic spectrum do feel their systems work better if they change their diet. Please note, they don't feel it will "cure" their autism, but does help with anxiety and general well being. Autistic adults are often the best guidance for our kids, and it is great to be open minded to discussing these things. If I dismissed these opinions, I would be no better than a well know Autism Charity who likes the colour blue. With that in mind, I will share this website: http://www.autismcalciumchannelopathy.com/Immunity_Inflammation.htmlA few Autistic adults that I know are following and believe it has enhanced their lives. The details are a bit beyond my understanding, so please don't ask me questions about it.
There are many parents who do believe a change of diet has helped their child immensely, and I always think it is good to listen. Be open minded, but never with the attention of 'curing' Autism. The thought of trying to get my 14 year old to change his diet just now is pretty much impossible, but if he wishes to try it as an adult, I will certainly show him all the support I can.
So when I am looking for stuff to help my kid on the internet, how do I know what is science based, and what is psuedoscience? There is much. Well basic rule of thumb is, look at who wrote the article, if its a science based journal, it is might good. If its not got a "sensational title" and the article Is paid by clicks, again not always great. Pub med and Harvard articles are also good, I have been told. If you have the time, vision and intelligence (unlike me), to sift your way through all this, then it might be worth doing. http://skeptiforum.org/a-guide-to-looking-smart-on-the-internet-how-to-find-and-evaluate-online-information/ This is a great guide to help. Any articles you read, its good to get consensus from the Scientific community.
So I think its worth the money looking into Treatments, what should I look for?
Ok, firstly you need to understand your child will always be Autistic, this will not change. Repressing any traits can be damaging mentally. Any treatments need to be done purely on improving general health, in my opinion.
Any treatments which come with FDA warnings or untested medication should never be approached. Allowing your child to be subjected to experimental drugs, is, in my opinion, very irresponsible. Even if a treatment appears to help, no peer based reviews, or control group studies can leave your child vulnerable to a whole host of different health problems. These studies are there for a reason, your child's safety.
Do your research above, make sure you aren't drawn into psuedoscience. Any mention of recovering from vaccine injury, or 'Big Pharma conspiracies, be very suspicious.
Be aware of the pros and cons of a diet change, do the positives overtake the restrictive diet, which may mean restricted activities and life quality? Will your child need to avoid that trip out to help with his social skills, will it prevent him going to a new friend's house for his dinner? Would it prevent him sitting with the other kids for school dinner? Would Granny who babysits a lot approve, would she stick to it? Would the tension and anxiety it may create overtake any benefit of the diet? Something to think about anyway.
Is doing these treatments delaying your ability of reaching 'acceptance of your child being Autistic?
If you can pass all these questions, then, good luck with your journey.
Remember your child is not sick, Autism is not a disease. Certain supplements, diet changes, may help general health, like everyone else. Further research may result in you gaining a plan which may optimal for your child's needs, but tread carefully.
Like every other child on the planet, a good healthy diet and plenty of exercise can really help. Exercise is good for anxiety, and it releases endorphins, which are pain relieving substances, which cause a sedative effect, which is calming.
In my experience Sensory Issues and Communication difficulties are nearly always a reason for behavior you don't understand. That is where a support network is important. There are many on the internet, local support, but also internet based ones. Spend time learning about sensory issues, and how to help your kid with communication. Once you have understood the issues relating to your child, it can get easier. Ask for advice from other parents of Autistic kids, and also Autistic Adults, there are many, more than happy to help on social media. Believe it or not, they are not all confined to 'Group Homes' . Don't fall for the "Treatment" Scaremongering.
I would like to thank everyone who has helped me with this, you know who you are.
Thanks for reading.
I am part of a growing group of parents of Autistic children, Autistic Adults, and General public, many with science and health qualifications and careers, fighting against chlorine dioxide (MMS), being inflicted on autistic children, by their parents in the false belief it will "cure" their Autism. This "treatment" is dangerous and harmful, both for short term and long term health problems.

The Very best Travel Tip Ever
Pottery Barn is a wonderful store—no doubt about it. But lately the major store in my city closed down and I was left with out an option, effectively, an offline option anyway. Overland Park, Kansas, remains a treasure-trove for old retail enthusiasts, and if you happen to be in the Kansas City location, I would highly advocate going to it. (Along with KC's legendary Nation Club Plaza , an absolute should-see.) There is considerably of interest there, which includes Metcalf South , a fascinating semi-dead mall (only a single anchor – Sears, still exists, along with a handful of other stores).
Nestled in the heart of Frisco, a nicely-off Dallas suburb, Stonebriar Centre is best suited for these who want a shopping encounter that is a little a lot more casual. On-line shopping offers everyone the chance to save huge cash whilst shopping Discounts will always be there for purchasers to take pleasure in. Orang itu tak lain tak bukan adalah Ji Sung yang menggunakan ID Shopping King Louie.
This coming weekend, expect to see numerous of your fellow shoppers checking for deals on their smartphone whilst braving the lines and crowds at the mall. Also check out that is a quite neat up and coming spot to and if you ever have to list anything it is free of charge. Now it looks something similar to Bangalore's Jayanagar 4th Block shopping complex.
Particular web sites have a function that enable a bride to click on the color of her option which in turn alterations the dress that color, producing it a lot less complicated to make choices amongst different shades of colors and also to picture what the dress would truly look like.
On the web shopping retailer offer easy payment modes which enables folks to pay employing on the web cash trasfer facility. But I'm shopping on-line mainly in the home categories – One particular Kings Lane and Gilt. This is good site list due to the fact every web site will do the every day deep with international house delivery.
