Frankie Essex has vowed to never wear a bikini again after she was fat shamed by a stranger on holiday.
The TOWIE star was on holiday in Spain celebrating her 30th birthday with friends when her body confidence took a massive knock.
Taking to Twitter, she said: "Was having a lovely day at the pool with @caseybatchelor until someone decided to call me fat a few sun loungers down from us so hurtful."
She added: "I don't even want to wear a bikini now feel so uncomfortable."
These photos of Frankie looking amazing in a blue bikini were taken just a few days before she was fat shamed.
Fans rushed to the Essex babe's defence calling her "beautiful" and the shamer "jealous".
Meanwhile her friend Casey who she's on holiday with also tweeted her support: "Jealous idiots babe! They wish they were having as much fun as us! I think it's sangria time."
Recently Frankie admitted she's gained a stone in weight after a crippling knee injury left her unable to exercise.
"I have hurt my knee so I haven't been able to train," she told The Sun .
"I didn't leave the house for a week 'cos I was in so much pain."It's annoying cos I've put on a bit of weight. I've put on a stone."Not being able to go gym - you eat and it makes me a bit depressed cos I can't go gym.
"It's horrible and it's a bit depressing. I'm swollen. My whole body is swollen. It's frustrating cos I can't go for a run."
It came as a blow to her confidence as in 2016 she went on a health kick and lost nearly THREE stone in 12 months, going from a size 14-16 to a size 8.
Last year, after losing the weight, she claimed her ex-boyfriend was a feeder and she was miserable while she was with him.
The former TOWIE babe split from hunk John Lyons nearly two years ago and released a fitness DVD in November 2016 as she opened up about how she got in shape and beat depression.
She told the New Magazine: "I was depressed when I was with him anyway. I felt s***, I ate a lot - he was a feeder. It was a fight in me to be the winner."
Talking about her issues, she explained: "[It was] just everything, I think. My ex-boyfriend, my mum, I lost a lot of friends when I first got on TOWIE...
"I'm still sad about all this now and I've had a bit of a s*** life, but who hasn't? If I can help one person wake up and feel better, then I've done my job."
In a heartbreakingly honest interview with The Sun Online, she also said: "This time last year I didn't want to wake up the next day, I couldn't get out of bed.
"I was in a hole, drinking and going out. I was burying my head in the sand, I was really in a bad way, overweight and in a bad relationship that I wanted to get out of.
"Drink for me is a depressant and if I had a drink and wake up on my own and not know what to do with myself so I'd just sit in everyday, eat and just think about the bad times and the s*** times and feel sorry for myself."

The Trump administration's proposal to merge the EEOC and the Labor Department's contractor compliance office will likely be delayed, according to a government letter provided Aug. 29 to Bloomberg BNA.
The proposed merger of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the DOL's Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs includes "several challenging transition issues," OFCCP Acting Director Thomas M. Dowd acknowledged in an Aug. 24 letter sent to the Institute for Workplace Equality. The Institute, a national nonprofit employer association in Washington, provided an exclusive copy of the letter to Bloomberg BNA.
Legislative and regulatory actions required to merge the agencies and to reconcile their different enforcement structures and approaches "will likely prove time consuming and could delay the expected FY 2019 start for the proposed consolidation," said Dowd, who wrote on behalf of the DOL and the White House's Office of Management and Budget.
"It appears that the merger is not going to happen in the near future," David Cohen, president of DCI Consulting Group in Washington, told Bloomberg BNA Aug. 29.
Mickey Silberman, a partner at Silberman Law in Denver, said the window to accomplish this merger before the next presidential election cycle is shrinking.
And while the proposal could reappear in the future, it's "highly unlikely," according to David Fortney, who was acting labor solicitor during the George H.W. Bush administration and is now a management attorney at Fortney & Scott LLC in Washington. Fortney, Silberman, and Cohen are co-chairs with the Institute for Workplace Equality.
"We understand the concerns of the agencies involved and are taking them into consideration as we move forward in the budget and government reorganization process," an OMB spokeswoman told Bloomberg BNA.
A DOL spokesman declined to comment beyond the contents of Dowd's letter. An EEOC representative wasn't immediately available to respond to Bloomberg BNA's Aug. 29 request for comment outside of normal business hours.
President Donald Trump proposed the agency merger in his fiscal year 2018 budget request as part of efforts to promote government efficiency and effectiveness.
The proposal has been opposed by the business community, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Institute for Workplace Equality, as well as civil rights groups, including the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. It also has divided lawmakers.
Stakeholders have argued that the two agencies should remain separate for many reasons. Aside from their different enforcement goals and legal authority, worker advocates have raised concerns about a merger leading to less anti-discrimination enforcement to the detriment of workers.
At the same time, management-side stakeholders have raised concerns about transferring the power to withhold government contracts from a Cabinet-level agency to an independent commission, as well as potentially exposing contractors to even more damages liability under a combined agency.
The merger potentially could still appear in proposed reorganization plans that each agency must submit by Sept. 9, as required by a March executive order for a government-wide review to determine where federal programs can be eliminated or modified to save costs.
But Congress will have the "last word" on the merger proposal, Fortney said.
So far, House bills and accompanying reports that would fund the Labor Department and the EEOC in fiscal 2018 have not expressly mentioned the merger proposal.
The Senate has yet to release its versions of spending legislation.
While Congress continues to consider the merger, Dowd added in the letter that there are "contemporaneous opportunities" to improve the OFCCP through an existing memorandum of understanding with the EEOC.
The MOU, last revised in 2011, coordinates the agencies' enforcement and information-sharing efforts regarding discrimination claims under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and Executive Order 11,246.
"Working within the framework of the MOU, we should be able to achieve desired reforms in the near term, without immediate recourse to legislative and regulatory action," Dowd wrote.
Both agencies also will continue to explore "other opportunities to identify operational cost savings by eliminating existing redundancies," he wrote.

The authors call them, "The irrepressible tortilla: Crisp it, stuff it, roll it, dip it – ole!"
They state early, "All recipes are written for 18-well-filled corn tortillas or 12 well-filled flour tortillas." Though flour tortillas bend and tuck better, your reviewer is far, far more in favor of the corn tortilla for its nutritional value.
The book opens with a section, The Larder, which explains all the ingredients called for in recipes here. They follow this with an Equipment section, none really needed, but some makes things come together more slickly. Next, they fill you in on terms in the recipes and the different ways a tortilla can be contorted, really easy.
Here's just a few of the offerings. All seem tasty, and none of the ingredient lists are very long:
- Green Olive Celantro Salsa (recipes for all salsas and sauces are found in the book). Made with garlic, Serrano chilies, olive oil and lemon zest
- Clear-Lime Salsa
With shallots, poblano chili pepper, like juice and anchiote powder.
- "Well-Filled Guacamole"
Simply made with tomatillos, lime and salt.
- Chili Colorado
Calls for chuck, port butt, garlic, chili powder, cumin, tomatoes pureed and a topping of whipping cream and dressed cilantro.
- Ground Lamb, Eggplant and Walnuts
Made with onion, chili peppers. Tomato paste, dry red wine and a topping of Red Bell Pepper-Tomatillo Salsa, lettuce and feta cheese
- Red or Green Chicken
Made with seasonings and onions, topped with Ancho Chili Sauce or Salsa Verde, shredded Cheddar and sour cream
- California-style Fish Chunks in a Dipped Tortilla
Make this with lemon, soy sauce chili peppers and Napa cabbage.
- Spicy Shrimp with Spinach
A quick recipe with olive oil, cider vinegar and Deviled Peanuts and Coconut Topping with lime wedges
- Avocado-Lime Cream
Made with whipping cream, sour cream, lime juice and Jalapeno chili pepper.
- Fried Tomatillos with Onions and Cream
Make with shipping cream and a topping of Breaded Chili Strips and cilantro
- Salsa-Poached Eggs
Poach in Tomato Salsa or Salsa Verde, topped with shredded lettuce.
- Sweet Banana Tacos with Toasted Almonds
Requires butter, dark brown sugar, sour cream and confectioners' sugar.

Whether you're lucky enough to have cleaning help or are currently DIY, you'll want a reliable, powerful vacuum to keep your floors spotless. And you're not the only one. It's been predicted that by 2020 the worldwide vacuum cleaner market will be worth US$114 billion, which is about 115.7 million units cleaning floors across the planet. Whatever your needs, there's a model to suit; from allergy-friendly machines, to quick handstick models and robot cleaners. We visited Harvey Norman's Flagship Super Store at Millennia Walk and checked out their extensive range… here are our top seven picks.
Allergy friendly models for heavy-duty cleaning
1. Philips PerformerPro
Philips PerformerPro is an 'allergy safe' bag vacuum cleaner with a HEPA 13 filter and AirSeal to capture fine dust. The filter is ECARF (European Centre for Allergy Research Foundation) certified and purifies the air of up to 99.95% of allergens from cat and dog hair, dust mites or pollen, so your home can be allergy friendly. Its 3-in-1 TriActive+ nozzle is also great for high pile rugs and little nooks and crannies.
2. Philips PowerPro Ultimate
Rather go bagless? Philips PowerPro Ultimate model is a good choice. In addition to the HEPA 13 filter and the TriActive+ Nozzle, it applies NanoClean technology that prevents the usual messy dust cloud escaping when you empty the chamber.
Squeaky-clean with a steam cleaner
3. Kärcher's Steam Cleaner SC4 Premium
Ready to go full steam ahead? Whether in the bathroom, kitchen or lounge, they kill 99.99% of all common household bacteria on hard surfaces. The steam cleaner ensures greater hygiene and better cleaning performance than conventional manual cleaning methods with detergent. Powerful steam and diverse accessories ensure that fittings, tiles, hobs, exhaust hoods and even tiny crevices and niches are cleaned thoroughly.
Handheld models for quick pick up
4. Electrolux Ergorapido ZB3114AK
Chargeable handstick vacuums are great for whizzing around the house for spot cleans. Electrolux Ergorapido handheld vacuum cleaner ZB3114AK is a 2-in-1 design with a stick vacuum that allows you to spot clean your house or detach the main unit to become a handheld vacuum to clean up after a meal or spill. Since it's wireless, you can access areas like stairs easily. It's lithium battery can last up to 45 minutes. We found this model easy to manoeuvre and it's nozzle headlights handy when reaching dark areas under furniture.
5. Dyson V8 Handstick vacuum
After greater suction power? Dyson V8 Fluffy Handstick vacuum is your answer. The unit is small, lightweight and its motor is positioned to allow balanced handgrip and smooth cleaning. This lightweight powerhouse cleans pet hair from the furniture, hard to reach cobwebs and can even dust lampshades and blinds. As it's cord free it can be taken out to the car to blast seats, dirty boots and foot wells.
Robotic models for daily maintenance
6. iRobot Roomba 980
Want your house made spick and span by a robot while you're out? The iRobot Roomba 980 robotic vacuum cleaner gives you cleaner floors, throughout your entire home, all at the push of a button. Roomba 980 seamlessly navigates an entire level of your home, keeping track of its location and recharging as needed until the job is done. The AeroForce™ Cleaning System with Carpet Boost automatically increases power on carpets where it's needed most. And with the iRobot HOME App, you can clean and schedule on the go.
7. Samsung CycloneForce VR9000 PowerBot
The Samsung CycloneForce VR9000 PowerBot takes robotic cleaning to the next level. A FullView sensor accurately maps out the area, circumventing potential obstacles, while a built-in digital camera creates a map of your home and calculates the most efficient and thorough cleaning route. If you don't want to be disturbed by vacuum noise, its virtual guard function prevents it from crossing a designated area. Larger wheels and a higher body help it to maneuver over rugs, wires and elevated floors.

With a 30-plus-year career including songs like "E Eats Everything," videos like the one for "You're on Fire" (in which, fun fact, the foods are actually wire-strung puppets) and a Wiki page dedicated entirely to the culinary references in their songs, it's clear that John Flansburgh of They Might Be Giants delights in food. Further evidence? "I'm fat," he says, laughing. "I've been accused of being a foodie. But I think that's like somebody who doesn't care accusing you of caring."
Flansburgh is spending his summer in the Catskills, keeping busy with the band's Dial-a-Song project, which debuts a new song every week. Of his picturesque location, Flansburgh says, "It's two hours away from New York but feels worlds away," while still reminding him of his home base in Brooklyn.
If you're stuck in the city this summer, you can catch They Might Be Giants at the Music Hall of Williamsburg on July 26. But should you head upstate, take heed of Flansburgh's suggestions for where to eat and drink, including the best barbecue, local ciders and freshly caught trout.

All about Chemistry
Scientists are today working hard to reduce pollutants and enabling people – especially the aged – to live a better, healthier lifeeducation Updated: Jan 16, 2012 15:05 IST
Chemistry has come to occupy the centrestage among the sciences. It provides honing of reasoning and analytical skills and creativity, enabling scientists to play god at times.
Most of the subjects, including the social sciences, deal with analysing events/ processes, sometimes demonstrating not just the ability to explain but also to predict forthcoming events. However, it is a chemist alone who continues to produce an enormous number of compounds. This has in the past led to bad press for chemistry as it came to be associated with pollutants, synthetic pesticides and insecticides and side effects of man-made drugs. Few paused to note that but for these the green revolution, increased life expectancy and better quality of life, especially in old age would not have been possible. Today, green chemistry ensures reduced pollution and high atom efficiency.
The scientist is no longer satisfied with merely considering the starting material and reaction products but is fascinated by what happens during the course of the reaction. Thus, he spends time studying transition states and reactive intermediates formed in reactions. My own experience with transient species in reactions has led to an understanding that interactions of this kind between proteins present in even femtomole (very, very small) quantities could play a key role in the origin of diseases.
When we are talking about 'designer drugs', great hope has been generated for the forthcoming era of personalised medicines where chemistry is poised to play a dominant role (the measurement of big players like cholesterol or glucose may be replaced in the coming years by small players like proteins which may help pathologists and doctors treat patients in a more personalised manner).
Recent decades have brought about a revolutionary change. Material science, nanotechnology, biotechnology, proteomics (large scale study of proteins, especially their structures and functions) and lipidomics (large-scale study of pathways and networks of cellular lipids - molecules, including fats and vitamins - in biological systems) have all arisen out of and are centred around chemistry. Chemistry has started developing a philosophy of its own. Theory has started overtaking experiments.
Theoretical/ computation chemistry are now being talked about a lot. A new breed of chemists – the best example being the Nobel laureate Roald A Hoffman – often does not have to busy itself with any 'wet chemistry' experiments. Physical chemists have thus taken to computers in chemistry like fish to water. Kinetics of reactions can now be easily followed by sophisticated computer programmes and software.
This has also led to the emergence of computer-aided drug design as an attractive career option. The laudable initiative of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research in launching the Open Source Drug Discovery (OSDD) encourages students and faculty anywhere in the country and abroad to register, log in to the website and participate in the discovery of new drugs. In this programme, the innovator helps in generating new drugs to be made available to the common man at a reasonable price.
Moving away from classical inorganic chemistry, many transition elements like Molybdenum, Ruthenium, Rhodium, Palladium, etc are being used for new methods to prepare crucial drugs for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. These methods ensure that not even trace impurities of unwanted compounds are present in such drugs, considerably reducing side effects and suffering of patients. Thanks to such developments, our own country has become a major producer of optically pure Menthol used in mouth fresheners, balms and ointments.
Today's chemistry involves the use of sophisticated instrumental techniques and constitutes the core of modern analytical chemistry. We are poised for a complete changeover and the round bottom flask of the 21st century will be likely to be replaced by palm-sized micro reactors which could be used for all kinds of tests.
Authorities will have to ensure that young Indians have access to such modern instruments in their day to day work. The youth in India is awakened and is even being seen as a threat for the work force of many advanced nations. Institutions have to provide them with the best facilities to ensure they remain enthusiastic about research and win the Nobel prize one day.

The card I drew today for an empowering affirmation was the Page of Pentacles. Although I interpret the cards by now from experience and intuition, I like to do web searches to get various input from other tarot experts and online sources.
In exploring the meanings behind the Page of Pentacles, it occurred to me that many definitions not only tend to overlap, but if I were a beginning student, frankly I'd have a bit of a hard time distinguishing the subtle but significant differences between certain cards in the pentacles suit, namely the differences between the Ace, the Page, and the Knight.
Let's look briefly at each of these cards and see what they have in common, and what makes them unique and different.
First, a quick primer on the energy of the pentacles suit. We can define the pentacles as belonging to the element of earth, and all that is associated with that. For example, the astrological signs of Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, as well as Yang or active energy. Some key ideas that jump to mind with the pentacles suit are: practical matters, financial matters, concrete plans, abundance, money, family, dependability, stability, organization, down-to-earth thinking, planning, action. Lots of these characteristics are also associated with the astrological signs in the earth element.
How do the Ace, Page, and Knight differ in general in the tarot?
Clearly the Ace is the starting energy for a suit. Therefore it contains all the raw power, essence, and energy of that suit, in potential form. The Ace is everything that represents the pentacles, and nothing in particular at the same time, because it is like a big general signpost of what type of energy represents your current experience or an upcoming situation. When you see the Ace of Pentacles, you can imagine that the time is right to start thinking, acting, and doing things in a very concrete and down-to-earth way. Maybe you've been dreaming and it's time to get realistic. Maybe you've been wishing for a financial turnaround in your situation and this card is a signal to tell you that things can now get better. The main point to emphasize with the Ace is that it's giving you a very general direction and indication, and I always like to think of the Aces as a seedling that is just ready to sprout. The energies of the aces need lots of nurturing and attention to manifest and grow, but certainly they represent pure potential.
What then of the Page, the featured card for today? Pages are youthful, playful, full of fresh ideas and new energy. All of those qualities then get channeled into the element represented by their suit. Therefore with the pentacles, we have a youthful representative of creating material wealth, abundance, concrete projects, and all the excitement associated with that if you were to imagine that the person involved were a teenager falling for their first love. It's expression is unbridled, uninhibited, but as yet, a bit immature. When we think of the suit of Pentacles, we often imagine that it represents a very solid, responsible, reliable and rather by the books personality. Since here we're dealing with the Page, you can imagine this card as an A+ student, valedictorian of their class, the one who always finishes all their assignments on time and lives for the personal satisfaction and admiration gained from a job well done. Loyal, faithful, eager to learn in a very hands-on way. This Page likes to plan, organize, execute, but does it all with a sort of lighthearted approach, not a stuck in the routine attitude. This Page knows that his practical skills can bring him exciting rewards on a financial plane. He might have just received a promotion or a new job, and the excitement that comes along with a new project. The Page, as opposed to the Ace, takes the pure potential of the Pentacles suit and sees it through to action, without getting too rigid or regimented in the execution. This Page also loves nature and being outdoors. Contact with the earth and everything that represents a grounding influence is important for this Page's well-being, and it could also represent a physically active person who loves playing sports or doing activities or hobbies like gardening, fishing, rafting, climbing.
How then does that differ from the Knight? The Knight is a bit more stuffy than the Page. He's seen more, done more, and is a bit more cynical. He's the one you'd imagine saying "Time is money" and being kind of hung up on rules and regulations. He loves seeing to the minute details of a project, and likes to organize things for their maximum efficiency. This is the type of person who takes delight in creating Excel spreadsheets with different colors and knows how to program in formulas to do the complex work in a quicker way. Budgeting, administration, middle management are all areas that this Knight excels in. So with the Knight you can see that we move away from the playful earthy spirit to a more serious, almost boring at times, approach. Although this Knight isn't dashing or adventurous, he's definitely safe and secure, and will be sure not to let you down. This is a person who would be mortified to stand you up on a date (unlike for example the fiery Knight of Wands, who might be juggling three partners at once hoping they don't collide!), and is the one who's going to use all their manners and play by the rules, without a lot of games or deception. While these of course are generalizations, they show that the subtle differences break down in specific ways.
To sum up, if you feel perplexed the next time you want to pinpoint the energies of the Ace, Page, and Knight of Pentacles, here are three affirmations that you can meditate on to focalize the energy and help to distinguish the subtle differences:
Ace: I have the pure potential to create and to receive all of the abundance of the Universe. I open myself to all sources of material wealth and I feel confident that I can build and organize any project that I want to accomplish, and see it through to completion. The power to produce a practical result is in my hands, and I manage all of the steps in the project, from start to finish, with a humble and focused approach. I am now called to harness the pure, initial stages of this energy and channel it into my specific project to bring material wealth and abundance into my life.
Page: I enjoy carrying out out all of the steps, especially the planning and goal-setting stage that I'm now in. I organize my work with ease and joy, and I create measurable, realistic and wide-reaching goals that I can work towards in a systematic way. I have abundant energy to tackle my project, unlimited resources at my disposal, and I delight in the gifts of nature and "getting my hands dirty" – I need to actively participate in my project and physically manifest my intentions in a practical way.
Knight: I know what I'm doing and I can now do it without the need of excessive energy. I don't change much but I get the job done right and can be counted on to see things through. I am loyal, trustworthy, dependable, and predictable. I like rules, structure, and organization. Efficiency is important to me and I take great pride and satisfaction in the practical results I produce by executing my plan. I'm not thinking big but I'm executing my project in a way that optimizes my resources and rewards me both in material resources and satisfaction in a job well done.

Fair warning - today's video sounds a bit serious... :)
But I promise, it's made with deep love, care and consideration.
I wish it to be of service for you, especially in this intense year of 2016. Where so many people are going through "what is going on, Universe?" time.
As you'll see in the video - I explained in part the reason why it feels so intense. Earth is moving deeper into the galactic core, and that causes strong energy fluctuation around and on earth.
Hence we (human beings) feel it strongly - as a way to clear whatever within us that's heavy, dense and negative...It's time to let them go, so that we can travel light in our next grand journey.
Yes - grand indeed. In the coming few years, we're going to walk into a whole new era on earth. Never before - 4th density reality.
It's SO EXCITING! I'll bring more info in the future. But for now - enjoy this video and follow the guide I offer so that you can best utilise this powerful (can be challenging) 2016 and benefit your next journey!
Click to learn more about Effortless Creating Group Program
I genuinely hope this video is of service to you, leave a comment below or send email to email@example.com to let us know!
I look forward to bringing you more raw info in the future to support your journey - much of it will turn your world upside down. In the best way possible :)
Big love,

It's been a month already and still no chance for an event! We were planning to go to Mooresville Motorplex yesterday to break-in his motor and get some quality seat time, but the weather did not cooperate - rain Saturday night through today and maybe tomorrow. At this rate we may not have an event until we make the trip to Lincoln for Spring Nats!
We haven't been completely inactive during this time, though. Grand-Am came to Road Atlanta a few weeks ago and I took Kieran and Killeen. It had rained for a few days before the race (on a Saturday) so the turn-out wasn't great and the spectating areas were a little mushy, but it was generally a great day for racing. Sunny and mid-60s and some good racing for both the Continental series and the Rolex series. We went all around the facility a few times and the kids got lots of autographs, etc. We did most of our viewing from Spectator's Hill where we can see all of the Esses, through turn 5 and into Turn 6. We also watched at Turns 10a and 10b for awhile and that's a pretty cool place to see passing, etc. They also have a large Jumbotron set up there.
Yesterday I did spend some quality time with his motor. The plan was to mount and break-in on the stand. Unfortunately I had mounted the clutch backward (again!) and I spent over an hour figguring out how to get it back off to turn around. When I mounted it the key was VERY tight in the crank key-way and I had to use the rubber mallet to pound it on some of the way. Getting it off is much more difficult since the only leverage points are the crank itself or the crankcase cover which is aluminum. I eventually figured out that the 19mm open-ended wrench fit in the available space and allowed me to leverage against the crank itself. Liberal use of tri-flow lubricant helped. I had to add more and more wrenches to the mix as I got further out on the crank, but eventually it popped off. I took the opportunity to file down the key a bit to make the fit easier.
I mounted a proper chain guard onto the motor, mounted the clutch the correct way, and put it on the kart. No problems with anything after that. I pulled the cord to get the fuel flowing into the carb and it only took 2 pulls after that to get it started. I had to keep some additional gas flowing while the rings worked the cylinder and then it idled perfectly. I warmed it up for about 10 min and made sure everything looked and sounded good before shutting it down and putting everything away. It should now be ready to run at events or track days.
Next weekend is Mother's Day so not likely to go anywhere. The next weekend there is an ETR event, but at a small lot that eats tires, so I think I'll skip that one and focus on maybe hitting Mooresville instead if there's no big event there. Then a few days after that we drive to Lincoln!
I still need to mount new tires for both of us before Lincoln. I think everything else is ready to go.

Located here: https://www.hackerrank.com/challenges/triangle-quest-2?utm_campaign=challenge-recommendation&utm_medium=email&utm_source=24-hour-campaign
Given N>0 and N<10, print a palindromic triangle of size N
The big caveat here is that we have to do this using 1 line in a
for loop, and can't use anything related to strings.
The first line, the
for loop, is given to us:
for i in range(1,int(raw_input())+1): #More than 2 lines will result in 0 score. Do not leave a blank line also
Lets remove that comment:
for i in range(1,int(raw_input())+1):
That's nicer :)
My first solution was:
for i in range(1,int(raw_input())+1):
print "".join(str(x) for x in range(1, i+1)) + "".join(str(x) for x in reversed(range(1, i)))
Which was then shortened to:
for i in range(1,int(raw_input())+1):
print "".join(str(x) for x in (range(1, i+1) + list(reversed(range(1, i)))))
But neither of these will get us past the first test case…
Googling around for ideas, I came across this:
This yielded my new solution:
from __future__ import print_function
for i in range(1,int(raw_input())+1):
print(*(x for x in (range(1, i+1) + list(reversed(range(1, i))))), sep='')
But this won't work because of the import statement…
After a while, I got stuck, and decided to look up the solutions on the HackerRank forums…
Some of the answers at the top of the page are very interesting…
print(sum(map(lambda n: 10**n, range(i)))**2)
x=int("1"*i) print(x*x)
I want to give these a try and then break down why they do or do not work…
This solution is very peculiar…
Lets break this down…
First questions I have are:
// do?
** do?
1 Will probably be harder to answer without 2 and 3, so lets answer those first:
//: Floor division
**: pow(x,y) or x^y
Ok so lets understand what this numerical expression is…
111111111 divided by
10 to the power of (9 minus i)
all to the power of 2
Why does this work?
We have to start with
i = 1 in order to answer this.
Ultimately, this is just a cool number trick, but it is worth evaluating.
i = 1, the denominator of our fraction becomes 10^8, which is 100000000.
111111111 // 100000000 = 1 in Python (naturally).
1 ** 2 = 1 naturally.
So, our first printed statement is
i = 2, the denominator of our fraction becomes 10^7, which is 10000000.
111111111 // 10000000 = 11.
11 ** 2 = 121.
At this point I realized the "trick".
All we are doing is squaring sequences of the digit 1 repeating i times.
To show this is the trick to this solution, try
11111 ** 2 or
11111 * 11111.
You should get
Naturally, such pedantic math knowledge does not have much common application beyond recognizing certain sequences or inputs and generalized pattern matching abilities.
x=int("1"*i) print(x*x)
These two solutions contain strings, so we can skip them
This is also an interesting solution…
print(sum(map(lambda n: 10**n, range(i)))**2)
To break down what is going on here, I used the following statements:
print map(lambda n: 10**n, range(1))
print map(lambda n: 10**n, range(2))
print map(lambda n: 10**n, range(3))
Which yielded:
[1, 10]
[1, 10, 100]
[1, 10, 100, 1000]
[1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000]
Hence why the summation yields the same sequence of ones we got in the first solution.
Further why we square the sums to yield the desired sequences.
Since I know that
range(i) yields a list, I now understand that
map takes a
lambda equation for the first arg here, and a list for the second.
This is just a modified version of the number trick from the first solution.
In all, it seems that solving this problem required a bit of special insight or math/number-agility in order to see that pattern.
I was originally looking for a way to join a list of individual digits but ended up finding that others solved this problem by generating the numbers themselves.
lol, nice.

Offices are already up for rent in Balma, a municipality located east of Toulouse, in the integrated development zone (ZAC) of Vidailhan. The ZAC is already home to companies such as Groupama and AG2R and offers conveniently-located shops (grocery, restaurant, bakery). The office space now being marketed is the result of a real estate development programme to be run by GA Smart Building in the coming months, the Group having acquired the related property in July 2017 with the Toulouse-based building and improvement firm OPPIDEA.
Two office buildings for rent
B. Park 2, with surface area of 2,700 m² in G+2, will be delivered at the end of August 2018, after nine months of works. The first lessee, Géosys, will move in from September 2018. Offering 81 parking spaces in the basement and outdoors, B.Park 2 will be the first of two batches delivered in a programme that totals 7,000 m² in new office space.
Also available for rent, the second office building, B.Park 1, will offer surface area of 4,300 m² in G+2.
These two real estate creations, designed with the contributions of Patrick Charoin + Marina Donda Architectes, will benefit from Category 5 ERP (buildings open to the public) and are thus eligible for operation by administrations.
GAPÉO®, guaranteed optimised energy performance
As to the facilities offered, B.Park 1 and 2 will benefit from the know-how of GA Smart Building, in particular with the installation of air treatment modules, and triple-paned bay windows with between-the-glass motorised blinds. Built with the assistance of the Active Computer-Aided Management of Energy Efficiency (GAPÉO®), the site offers optimised energy performance as well as every user comfort.
With FullBIM, GA Smart Building stands at the cutting edge of innovation
The project was carried out with the help of FullBIM, the 3D digital model developed by GA Smart Building, which enables a unique understanding of any real estate complex, from design to in-factory and on-site production, all the way to operation.

Srinagar: Several people have expressed willingness to adopt the abandoned babies at Kashmir's Lal Ded Hospital.
Three babies were abandoned at the region's lone maternity hospital including a newborn left to die at a dumping site amid a pack of stray dogs.
The dumping of two-day-old boy, who received multiple injuries on his body and has been put on a month-long treatment, has sent shockwaves among the residents who expressed outrage on social media.
Medical Superintendent, LD Hospital Dr Nazir Ahmad Malik told Kashmir Reader that many people came forward to adopt the babies but it is the magistrate who can hand over babies for adoption after completing legal formalities.
He said the hospital is taking care of the unclaimed babies right now as the Valley lacks a special home for such children.
The three babies including two girls were left in the hospital from January 14. Both the infant girls were left inside the hospital in the nighttime while the baby boy was wrapped in a plastic bag at the hospital garbage dumping site.
All the three babies have been kept in the neonatal ward and the hospital staff has been taking care of them. As per the doctor present in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) ward said the babies are stable without any complications.
Police have registered a case and are looking for the parents of the baby.
Abdul Rasheed, Station House Officer (SHO) of Rajbagh Police Station told Kashmir Reader they have filed a case and are investigating into it.

Investigation of a Technique for Measuring Ethical Development of Students in Business: A Heuristic Example.
DuFrene, Debbie D.; And Others
Administering measures of students' ethical orientation at various points in the education of business students would be helpful in determining the affective impact of the curriculum. Procedures for eliminating item bias and maximizing the validity and reliability of such measures are discussed and illustrated through actual data collected in the attempt to develop such an instrument. The model of M. Thomas (1989) was used to guide the development of the ethical evaluation instrument by the following steps: (1) generate a pool of ethical and moral concerns; (2) select knowledgeable judges; (3) have judges identify the moral and ethical issues from the list compiled; and (4) establish a hierarchy of issues. A list of 52 potential concerns was prepared and rated by 52 college business faculty members and 61 business practitioners in the community. Top issues for both cohorts were identified; and a high degree of consistency was found between the two groups, providing a set of items for an eventual student instrument. The data collection and analysis procedures demonstrated the viability of the framework for construction of a student test. Two tables and one figure contain study data. An appendix lists the 52 ethical issues. (SLD)

India - GOA, from the Konkan coast to the Western Ghats
A relaxed and enjoyable birding tour in three centres.
|Max Group Size
|15 Days
£3795 PP, £425 single supplement.Deposit £800. 2020 prices TBC.
Goa is extremely rich for birding, with many key habitats concentrated in a fairly small and workable area. This itinerary follows a relaxed pace, allowing us a leisurely but detailed investigation of all the best sites while also taking sensible midday breaks in the heat, and with stays at just three centres relatively little travel is involved. The ideal choice for the first-time wildlife visitor to India, Goa offers a wonderful showcase for the birds, butterflies, mammals, and culture of southwest India. The state's infrastructure is well developed, making it easy to get around, and our stay here should be comfortable and enjoyable, in a region which is friendly to British tourists, and where English is widely spoken. Weather conditions are usually warm, dry and sunny at this time of year, and our itinerary will be as flexible as possible, so we can visit the most productive sites based on our local guide's advice, to catch up with an exceptional variety of birds in a wide range of habitats.
Birding promises to be outstanding, and we will begin to see our first species as we drive from the airport to our first hotel. Goa boasts a huge variety of birds given its small size, and among the many we seek are endemic Malabar Whistling Thrush, Malabar Barbet, and White-bellied Blue Flycatcher, plus Malabar Trogon, Sri Lanka Frogmouth, Blue-capped Rock Thrush, Velvet-fronted Nuthatch, Heart-spotted Woodpecker, Crimson-fronted Barbet, Black-rumped Flameback, Verditer Flycatcher, Scarlet Minivet, Asian Fairy Bluebird and Golden-fronted Leafbird.
Other key birds include Citrine Wagtail, Paddyfield Warbler, Bluethroat (red-spotted race) and Pacific Golden Plover. Other birds of note include several Bee-eater species, including Blue-tailed, Chestnut-headed and Little Green, which hawk over the paddyfields. There are up to eight species of kingfisher, including Stork-billed, Pied and Black-capped. Waders and herons abound, and we look for Terek and Marsh Sandpiper, and Lesser and Greater Sandplover. We will also pay attention to locating beautiful Painted Snipe. Mangroves hold Collared Kingfisher, herons and passerines including Blyth's Reed and Greenish Warbler, plus Woolly-necked Stork and Asian Openbill, and River Tern. At coastal areas there are gull concentrations including Heuglin's, Brown-headed and Pallas's, and impressive White-bellied Sea-eagle can be seen hunting.
Even the hotel gardens can be excellent for birding, with sunbirds, bulbuls, Indian Yellow Tit, and flocks of Chestnut-tailed Starling. This holiday will be a riot of birdwatching from start to finish, and you can expect around 200 species on a relaxed and enjoyable holiday.
As usual, we will not be overlooking the general wildlife of the area, and will surely see Southern Plains Grey Langur, Bonnet Macaque and Malabar Giant Squirrel, as well as Mugger Crocodile. This post-monsoon season is also the peak time for butterflies, in which Goa is particularly rich, and we will encounter a spectacular selection throughout the tour.
We stay at two centres along the coast, and a third an hour and a half's drive inland. Our itinerary includes four nights at the excellent Backwoods Camp, plus time at the coast and in the interior. We enjoy birding visits to Cotigao and Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuaries, Carambolim, Curtorim and Maina Lakes, and a leisurely boat trip along the Zuari River, as well as extensive birding around the state. We visit mountain jungle on the edge of the Western Ghats, paddyfields and wetlands often interspersed with dry grassland, mangrove swamp, and coastal areas including estuaries, beaches and wet swamps.
Goa is a melting pot of identities, with a traditionally easygoing lifestyle, and our relaxed pace allows us to enjoy some memorable cultural experiences without losing birding time. We will enjoy a walk around Goa's former capital city, Old Goa, a UNESCO World Heritage site housing some of the most historically significant buildings and churches in the region, including the magnificent Sé Cathedral and Basilica of Bom Jesus. Another day we visit an organic spice plantation, where we have an optional guided tour of the spice plants and excellent butterfly garden, as well as enjoy traditional Goan cooking and sample the local Caju Feni, a potent alcoholic drink distilled from the cashew fruit. Another day we take lunch in Fontainhas, inside the old quarter of the capital Panjim, and sample Goan-Portuguese dishes in a charming restaurant before taking a walk through the narrow lanes of the fascinating Latin quarter, rich in Portuguese-era architecture. At Palolem we have at least one dinner under the stars at a beach shack restaurant, where locally-caught seafood is especially good. During our stay at Backwoods Camp we visit the oldest Hindu temple in Goa, the 12th century Mahadev Temple at Tambdi Surla. All these relaxing cultural aspects can be enjoyed without losing birding time, as we are always located in places with birdlife.
Your Leader, popular Heatherlea Guide Toby Green, has birded Goa extensively, and this is one of his favourite birding destinations in the world. He is very much looking forward to showing you the birdlife!
For those travelling overnight before joining the holiday, enjoy your complimentary pre-flight hotel before your holiday begins. Full details from our office!
Day 1: Relax in the complimentary airport lounge, then depart London on an overnight flight.
Days 2 - 4: arrive Goa, Cotigao Wildlife Sanctuary
Arrive Goa on day 2, driving south to Palolem in the coastal region of southern Goa (1.5 hrs) to spend two days birding in Cotigao and Netravali Wildlife Sanctuaries. Time permitting we will begin our exploration of the mixed deciduous forest of Cotigao in the afternoon of arrival. This habitat is noticeably drier than the vegetation of other forested reserves in the state, and although home to a similar array of species some of the more sought after forest specialities, such as Forest Wagtail, Malabar Woodshrike, Emerald Dove, Yellow-footed Green-pigeon, Green Imperial Pigeon and White-bellied Woodpecker, can be more confiding here. Cotigao hosts a small butterfly park stocked with native host plants frequented by species such as Lime, Clipper, Spot Swordtail and the endemic Tamil Lacewing. A good selection of mammals, including Chital, Sambar and Gaur (Indian Bison) may be seen here, while this is also one of the better places in Goa for a sighting of elusive Leopard, although notoriously secretive and far from guaranteed. During our stay in this area we will also spend at least one morning at Netravali Wildlife Sanctuary, around an hour's drive from Palolem. The quiet sanctuary road winds its way to an isolated village at the summit of a series of rounded hills, allowing access to some pristine moist deciduous forest. These forests support a diversity of species including Malabar Trogon, Indian Blue Robin, Sri Lanka Frogmouth, vocal groups of Indian Scimitar-babbler, and we have the chance of finding Indian Rufous Babbler here, a Western Ghats endemic more usually found further south. The village of Verlem provides a glimpse of untouched rural Goa with a host of bulbuls, minivets and sunbirds in gardens and fields, and is a good vantage point for hirundines and raptors.
Nights at The Tubki Resort, a comfortable hotel at Palolem beach, a few minutes' drive from Cotigao.
Days 5 - 8: Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary & Mollem National Park
Depart Cotigao, spending the morning birding at Curtorim and Maina Lakes and surrounding flooded fields, which host a good selection of waterbirds. During the dry season (November to May) waterbirds congregate in Goa's few sizeable lakes, with key species here including Grey-headed Swamphen, Bronze-winged and Pheasant-tailed Jacanas, White-breasted Waterhen, Garganey, Northern Pintail, Lesser Whistling-Duck, Cotton Teal, Indian Spot-billed Duck, Comb Duck, Little Cormorant and Oriental Darter.
We continue inland to the Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary (2hrs) to spend four days birding in the forests at the foot of the Western Ghats, a region that contrasts starkly with the coastal plains in terms of topography, vegetation, and fauna. The Western Ghats, a range of low mountains running parallel to the west coast of peninsular India, are one of the most ecologically rich regions in the world, home to a number of restricted range endemics. From a biological perspective the Ghats, which form the state's eastern border, are Goa's most notable region, and the entire stretch within Goa is protected in a series of sanctuaries. The 240 sq km Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary, encompassing the area additionally designated as Mollem National Park, is the largest of Goa's protected areas, its gently undulating terrain cloaked in a combination of moist deciduous, semi-evergreen and tropical evergreen forests, intersected by bamboo brakes, cane thickets, and trickling streams that become raging torrents in the monsoon. 16 of the 28 birds endemic to the Western Ghats are habitually found here, among active feeding flocks and with a host of nocturnal species. Key birds include Malabar Trogon, Indian Pitta, White-bellied Woodpecker, Malabar Grey, Malabar Pied and Great Pied Hornbills, Malabar Whistling-thrush, Indian Blackbird, Orange-headed Thrush, Malabar Barbet, Malabar Woodshrike, Brown-breasted and White-bellied Blue Flycatchers, Small Sunbird, Malabar Parakeet, Nilgiri Woodpigeon, Indian White-rumped Spinetail and Brown-throated Needletail, with forest streams hosting Black-backed Dwarf and Blue-eared Kingfishers.
At the base of the ghats the dense forest of the sanctuary merges into cultivated fields and sleepy villages, creating a mosaic of habitats. Forest edges are frequented by sizeable mixed feeding flocks that contain such delights as Orange Minivet, Asian Fairy Bluebird, Asian Paradise and Tickell's Blue Flycatchers, Greater Racket-tailed Drongo, Heart-spotted Woodpecker, Gold-fronted Leafbird, Black-naped Oriole, Flame-throated, Yellow-browed and 'Square-tailed' Black Bulbuls, Western Crowned Warbler, Velvet-fronted Nuthatch, Little Spiderhunter and Dark-fronted Babbler, while flowering bamboo and rice fields attract Yellow-throated Sparrow, Red-headed, Black-headed and Grey-necked Buntings, Black-throated and White-rumped Munias and Common Rosefinch. The forests support a host of nocturnal species including Sri Lanka Frogmouth, Oriental and Collared Scops-owls, Brown Hawk-owl, Jungle Owlet and four species of nightjar - Savanna, Indian Little, Indian Jungle and Jerdon's, and we will include some evening walks (at dusk and/or after dinner) for nightjars, and spotlight around the lodge if any owls are heard calling during our stay.
Mammal densities are modest throughout Goa, however there is the prospect here of endemic Malabar Giant Squirrel as well as Southern Plains Grey Langur and Bonnet Macaque. Over 150 species of butterfly have been recorded in the area, including the largest - Southern Birdwing, and smallest - tiny Grass Blue and Grass Jewel, to occur in the region, plus a number of species endemic to the Western Ghats, including Tamil Yeoman, Malabar Raven and Malabar Tree Nymph. Four Nights at Backwoods Camp, a comfortable birding lodge within the sanctuary.
Day 9: Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary
We will leave the Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary early this morning, to visit Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary, around half an hour's drive away. Bondla is Goa's smallest reserve, a productive patch of mixed forest on undulating terrain at the foot of the ghats. Birdlife here is largely similar to that of the Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary, however some species, such as Grey Junglefowl, Red Spurfowl, White-rumped Shama, Forest Wagtail, Indian Blue Robin, Rufous Woodpecker, Spangled Drongo, Grey-headed Bulbul, Blue-bearded Bee-eater, Blue-capped Rock-thrush and Emerald Dove can be more confiding here. Bird densities are generally good in the mixed habitat around the edge of the reserve where areas of scrub, plantation and villages meet the forest, and here we will look for Blue-faced Malkoha, White-browed Bulbul and White-naped Woodpecker among others.
The surrounding hills are good for raptors rising in the thermals mid-morning, which may include Crested and Legge's Hawk-eagles, Rufous-bellied and Black Eagles, Oriental Honey-buzzard and Besra. We will leave Bondla just before midday, stopping for lunch at an organic spice plantation. Here we will enjoy some traditional Goan village fare and sample some refreshing lemongrass tea, local cashew nuts and Caju Feni, a potent alcoholic drink distilled from the cashew fruit. We can take a guided tour of the spice plants and a butterfly garden, and there will be the opportunity to buy spices, cashew nuts, essential oils and local handicrafts. The plantation overlooks a large area of flooded grass and we hope to see some kingfishers as we have lunch, possibly including Blue-eared.
After lunch we drive (1.5 hrs) to the coastal resort of Arpora in north Goa, where we spend the next seven nights in the Marinha Dourada, a comfortable hotel which will be our base for exploring the various habitats of north Goa's coastal region.
Days 10 - 15: Coastal north Goa
We spend six days birding a broad range of habitats in north Goa's coastal belt. There is a multitude of productive sites within easy reach of our hotel and on most days we will divide the day into two parts, starting early and returning to our hotel as the day heats up for a leisurely lunch break, with the chance of a siesta before setting out again late afternoon.
The variation in habitat and vegetation, from dry grass, scrub and rocky plateaus to patches of mature woodland, together with tropical sandy beaches, rivers, mangrove-lined estuaries, tidal creeks, marshes, paddyfields, saltpans and lakes, endows this region of Goa with a diversity of birds that belies its small area.
One morning we will explore the mangrove-lined Zuari River and Cumbarjua Canal by boat, with the chance to find a variety of kingfishers, our key target being the scarce and sporadically distributed Collared Kingfisher, plus Stork-billed, Black-capped, Lesser Pied, White-throated and Common. We can also expect Osprey and Lesser Adjutant, with Slaty-breasted Rail and Mugger Crocodile often seen in the mangroves. Other more easily accessible areas of marsh, mangrove and flooded fields, as well as lakes at Carambolim and Batim, can be explored from dry land for waders including Wood, Green and Terek Sandpipers, Little and Temminck's Stints, Ruddy-breasted and Baillon's Crakes, Painted and Woolly-necked Storks, Asian Openbill, Purple Heron, Intermediate Egret and Glossy Ibis.
Quieter beaches north of the Chapora estuary act as high tide roosts for gulls, terns and shorebirds, including Pallas's, Brown-headed, Heuglin's and Slender-billed Gulls, Great and Lesser Crested, Gull-billed and Caspian Terns, Greater and Lesser Sandplovers, Kentish Plover and Small Pratincole. Other key species we seek in various patches of dry and cultivated fields, scrub and woodland, include Blyth's, Paddyfield, Tawny, Olive-backed and Richard's Pipits, Citrine, Yellow and White-browed Wagtails, Malabar and Rufous-tailed Larks, Bluethroat, Indian Black Robin, Scaly-breasted and White-rumped Munias, Long-tailed, Bay-backed and Brown Shrikes, Little Green and Blue-tailed Bee-eaters, Eurasian Golden Oriole, Grey-headed and Brahminy Starling, Common Tailorbird, Black-lored Tit, Purple, Purple-rumped, Vigor's and Loten's Sunbird, Red-rumped and Wire-tailed Swallows, various raptors including Indian Spotted and Booted Eagles, Crested Serpent-eagle, Black and Brahminy Kites, Pallid Harrier, Crested Goshawk, Shikra, Osprey, and White-bellied Sea-eagle.
Our last day or two will be spent filling in any gaps in our list, and we may return to some of the places visited earlier in the week. We may even make a return visit to Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary if we are missing any forest birds, and will be dictated by movements of winter migrants, keeping out itinerary flexible for the best possible birding.
The area opposite our hotel hosts a weekly flea market every Saturday night, and is an interesting place to walk around on our last evening to buy souvenirs to take home.
Day 16: depart Goa
We enjoy our final breakfast, before returning to Dabolim Airport for our flight to London.
Note: This is a flexible itinerary which may be adjusted to allow for changes in arrival and departure times, weather conditions and other related factors.
Please note: all itineraries are given as a guide only. Actual holiday content may vary according to the judgement of your guide, and elements beyond our control (eg weather).
Accommodation: We stay at comfortable hotels (air-conditioned) in Palolem and Arpora, with four nights at a simple but comfortable (non air-conditioned) birding lodge in the Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary. All meals are included (three per day). Vegetarians can be catered for easily in India, although it can be a bit more awkward if you cannot eat curries. There is usually plenty of fish on the menu.
Walking: Generally easy/moderate. There will be some walks along roads and tracks over generally flat terrain, and generally an average level of fitness is required. We take advantage of the cooler mornings and late afternoons to see birds at their most active, usually returning to our hotel for a midday break and in the early evening.
Weather: Goa is hot. Mid-day temperatures in November are usually around 30C, considerably cooler overnight when they drop to around 20C. Rain in this season is rare; any rain that does fall is usually as a brief convectional thunderstorm lasting only a few minutes, however forests can be humid. Arabian Sea temperatures are similar to those of the Mediterranean in summer.
Insects: There are biting insects including mosquitoes. Before travelling consult your doctor about suitable anti-malarial medication, and on arrival take adequate precautions against mosquito bites.
