Why did most propeller planes during WW2 have 1 landing gear at the back and 2 at the front unlike modern day propeller planes? | Tricycle landing gear offers major advantages over the traditional two landing wheels and a tail skid. They include better pilot visibility during take off and landing and better braking. Tricycle aircraft also keep their tail fins in clean air when landing and taking off this makes them easier to control at this critical moment and it makes it easier for the pilot to avoid the dreaded ground loop. Once the advantages of tricycle landing gear were fully understood which was pretty much during the course of WW2 aircraft were nearly always designed that way from that period onwards.

What are the benefits of a wide display versus a bigger display? | Ultrawide monitors offer not just more usable space for gaming but a more immersive aspect ratio. A wider aspect ratio means that, in most games, you can see more at once. Scenery and objects that remain outside your field of view on a 16:9 widescreen become visible on a 21:9 ultrawide.

What is the real meaning of friendship? | A few days ago, I planed to go to shopping with my cousin sister as she was going for college. We decided to go to the market and shop by ourselves but both of us are not used to do that and were quite unaware of what suits us and what not. Firstly we searched some shops but we ended up knowing that we are not capable of doing that alone.
I called two of my friends for help and I was happy that they agreed instantly without any further questions. None of them even had a slightest problem with Di coming along. They were quite friendly with her and made her truly comfortable. We did shopping for the whole day and their presence made the whole thing look really easy. We enjoyed a lot and the girls day out was a huge success.
Some of you might say that its normal and anyone and everyone would do that. But flashback a few months back we fought might sound normal, but it was a massive fight. Still we are together. We are teenagers with huge anger and ego issues. But the way they forget the past and don't let the past bother the present is something I am thankful for. I was super happy that day.
What is the real meaning of friendship?
Friendship is the feeling that there is someone with you when the whole world is against you and you can share anything with that person without being afraid to lose him/her. For me this is friendship.
Dedicated to Muskaan, Riya, Priyanka and Vaishali.
I really love you girls and you are a real gift to me that I would never wanna lose. Stay beautiful, stay wild.

What are the common mistakes students do while preparing for GATE? | I think everyone makes mistakes preparing for GATE, even the toppers. No preparation is perfect, maybe that is why we have never seen someone score a 100 marks in GATE. You have to focus on limiting these mistakes to as minimum as possible.
Some of the common mistakes that you would find students committing are the following:
Selective Approach : Selective approach means giving special attention to some topics that have had traditionally high weightage in GATE and not paying proper attention to the rest. If you want to secure a top rank, each and every topic is important. While you prepare, prepare sincerely for all the topics. Once you are good with all nooks and corners of the syllabus, zero in on the important topics. Selective approach should be used once you are good with everything in the syllabus.Loopholes in concepts: Sometimes, we take concepts for granted. But in GATE Computer Science, no concept should be taken for granted. You should learn to identify the why behind each concept. Don’t remember anything meaninglessly. The more you remember things meaninglessly, the more loopholes you have in your concepts, which become muddled with passing time. So keep everything clean and clear.Not solving previous year questions: It is extremely important to solve previous year questions and understand the intricacies behind them. Give all these questions an honest try. Once you have done this part sincerely, you can be assured of having at least 45–50 marks in GATE. But if you skip this part, you will not have a clear understanding about what GATE demands from you.Lack of revision: Syllabus is an ocean. If you don’t do proper revision, it all becomes alien beyond a few months of time. So keep in touch with all the subjects. Dedicate an entire day of the week to revision if you may, but do keep revising. For that, maintain short notes and also mark the difficult questions you encounter while preparation and while revision, solve these questions from scratch.Not solving Test Series: This is strictly my personal opinion. A lot of people have gone on to secure great ranks in GATE without taking a single test, but if you are one of those average minds, definitely give a sincere attempt to the test series.Not doing a proper analysis of the test series: This is one of the biggest mistakes I have seen aspirants make. Giving test series is important, but the analysis is much more important. If you are not analyzing where you are going wrong, if you aren’t noting down your mistakes and promising yourself that you are not repeating it the next time, simply attempting tests will not serve any purpose. If the analysis even takes 5 hours, it is totally worth it.Getting nervous on the D-day: A lot of people screw up their chances by letting anxiety get the better of them on the D-day. Don’t be that person. Control your emotions, don’t let emotions control you. Be a regular practitioner of meditation and keep your mind calm all the time.

What do you think of GOOP, Gwyneth Paltrow’s company, and their claims? | In a word: hilarious.
We can all do with a good laugh—and after a hard day, a look at the Goop website will have you rolling in the aisles. (If you’re wealthy enough to have a house with an abundance of aisles, Goop sounds like just the place for you).
Even if you dismiss all the pseudoscience and alternative “wellness” products, just a look at her prices for “everyday” items will have you giggling. Nearly $300 for a straw bag? What a bargain—it’s made from 100-percent straw. Only the best for Goop customers.

Was Beethoven a prodigy? | Yes, especially on the fortepiano. That was his specialty as a youth - he also played diverse instruments at the time - and here he won renown as a lad.
BEETHOVEN started his musical life being groomed as a performer. Promoting Ludwig as a prodigy, his father organized his first public concert at the age of seven. Although Beethoven studied violin, organ, and other keyboard instruments, it was his phenomenal skill on the fortepiano that later gained his entry to the palaces and patronage of the Viennese aristocracy. While he endeavored to establish himself as a composer, he was sought out as a fortepiano teacher, especially by the families of young women of the noble class. Through his teaching of his most tireless student, Carl Czerny, Beethoven passed down a legacy of ideas about interpreting his own piano works, particularly the sonatas. For succeeding generations of concert pianists, the ability to perform the entire cycle of Beethoven’s 32 sonatas for piano has become the pinnacle of achievement.
His professor compared him to Mozart as a youth.
The first published notice of Beethoven, written by his teacher Neefe, appeared in this music magazine when Beethoven was twelve (not eleven, as stated there):
“Louis van Betthoven, son of the above-mentioned tenor, a boy of eleven years [sic] and of very promising talent. He plays the keyboard skillfully and powerfully, sight-reads very well, and to sum it up, he mostly plays The Well-Tempered Clavier of Sebastian Bach, which Mr. Neefe has placed in his hands. Whoever knows this collection of preludes and fugues in all keys (which one could call the non plus ultra) will know what that means. Insofar as his other duties allow, Mr. Neefe has also given him some instruction in the thoroughbass. Now he is training him in composition, and to give him encouragement has had his variations on a march for keyboard engraved in Mannheim. This young genius deserves the support to enable him to travel. He would certainly become a second Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart if he were to continue to progress as he has begun.” (Translation by Wayne Senner)
Mozart himself lauded the young Beethoven’s playing. Even then, Mozart recognized Beethoven as a major talent. And remarked he believed he would one day cause global conversation.
According to reminiscences, Beethoven was taken on his 1787 visit to Mozart, who requested that the fortepianist play something for him. Mozart, assuming that what Beethoven had played was a carefully prepared show-piece, praised it in a somewhat cool manner. Beethoven, observing Mozart’s tone, begged Mozart for a theme on which to improvise, one of Beethoven’s greatest musical gifts. Beethoven improvised in such a style that Mozart, who paid more and more attention and interest as Beethoven proceeded, finally went to some friends in the adjoining room and excitedly exclaimed, “Keep your eyes on him. Some day he will give the world something to talk about.”
….
Beethoven also became a professor and coach of the fortepiano. Here are some of his students, Hungarian gentility. Despite their coming from a higher social station, they befriended their Professor - and soon became touchingly close with him, embarking on a creative collaboration.

Therese Malfatti
Julia Guicciardi, Therese von Brunsvik, Therese Malfatti These three women were amateur pianists who took fortepiano lessons from Beethoven. Countess Julie Guicciardi was 15 or 16 and Beethoven nearly 30 when they first met. He described her as an “enchanting girl” and may have wished to marry her. When her mother sent him a purse with coins to pay for his teaching services, he was insulted by the reminder that he was not of their class and was regarded more as an employee than a friend. Beethoven dedicated his Sonata quasi una fantasia, Opus 27, no. 2 (known as the “Moonlight” Sonata) to Julie. The sketchleaf owned by the Beethoven Center (on display in the lower drawer of the center display case) was once in the possession of her family.
Therese von Brunsvik was the eldest of the Brunsvik siblings, Hungarian aristocrats who befriended Beethoven during their frequent trips to Vienna. In 1799 their mother asked Beethoven to give Therese and her sister Josephine fortepiano lessons during their two-week stay. He was so taken with the young ladies that he agreed to come to their hotel every day. He even wrote for them a set of variations for piano duet on a theme set to the first stanza of “Nähe des Geliebten,” (“Nearness of the Beloved One”), a beautiful love poem by Wolfgang von Goethe. Here is a translation of the entire poem:
I think of you when I see the sun's shimmer gleaming from the sea.I think of you when the moon's glimmer is reflected in the springs. I see you when on the distant road the dust rises, In deep night, when on the narrow bridge the traveler trembles. I hear you when with a dull roar the wave surges. In the quiet grove I often go to listen when all is silent. I am with you, however far away you may be, You are next to me! The sun is setting, soon the stars will shine upon me. If only you were here!
Another of his students of the fortepiano became an influential music theorist, pedagogue, critic and commentator, as well as composer and musician himself. He too, befriended his Professor and became quite close with him. He helped develop new exercises, teaching methods and combinations for keyboard playing, education and composition, which are still used today; likely influenced and/or inspired in part by his famous and great-artist Professor.
Beethoven’s most famous pupil is perhaps best known today to piano students the world over as the composer of keyboard studies designed to develop advanced skills. By the time he was 10, Czerny had already made his public debut and could play many of the works of Mozart and Clementi from memory. Beethoven heard him play his own “Pathétique” Sonata and immediately offered to give him lessons. Carl later described these lessons in detail, recalling how Beethoven had him practice scales in all keys and exercises from the keyboard method book by C.P.E. Bach. Although the lessons did not continue regularly or for an extended period, Czerny became a lifelong friend and a champion of Beethoven’s music. Although much in demand as a teacher, he also agreed to give piano lessons to Beethoven’s nephew Karl (who had little of his uncle’s talent) in 1816-1818. He transcribed many of Beethoven’s orchestral works (including all nine of the symphonies) for fortepiano duet. His commentary on the interpretation of Beethoven’s piano sonatas, published in his Complete Theoretical and Practical Piano School in 1839, remains an invaluable resource.
Among Czerny’s numerous fortepiano compositions are several based on themes by Beethoven. For these three short rondos, Czerny used themes from Beethoven’s song, “Das Glück der Freundschaft” (“The Happiness of Friendship”), Opus 88.
Beethoven’s theories and techniques as well as broad pedagogy of fortepiano playing, theory and composition also indirectly influenced Liszt, through Carl Czerny. Czerny became a Professor of Music himself, and taught the great Liszt. Liszt learned thusly much of what Beethoven had taught Czerny. A devoted discipline as well as influential artist in his own right, Czerny passed on the musical methodologies and theories as well as technical methods and styles and aesthetics of fortepiano of his Professor, to the next generation. And thus Beethoven, also had a powerful inspiration and/or influence on Liszt, indirectly.
Czerny transmitted his knowledge and appreciation of Beethoven’s music to his pupil Franz Liszt, who studied fortepiano with him after the family moved to Vienna in 1822, when Liszt was 10. Czerny took his pupil to meet Beethoven, and the “little Liszt” wrote in Beethoven’s conversation book inviting him to attend his concert on April 13, 1823. Many years later, Liszt recounted that after the concert Beethoven praised his excellent performance by bestowing a “consecration kiss.” Scholars still argue about whether the story is true. However, there is no doubt that Liszt held a special reverence for Beethoven’s music and was a major influence in making it better known to nineteenth-century audiences. His edition of Beethoven’s sonatas was first published in 1857, and he transcribed all of Beethoven’s symphonies and several other works for solo fortepiano. Among his many philanthropic activities was his very generous financial support and fund-raising for the Beethoven monuments in Bonn (erected in 1845) and Vienna (erected in 1880). This year we celebrate the 200th anniversary of Liszt’s birth.
Czerny also taught Beethoven-inspired music style, methods and technique and theory, to Alfred Jaell, another renowned musician. Jaell, an Austrian artist, brought Beethoven’s music to America. He performed Beethoven’s compositions in St. Louis. In particular he played, and kept alive, a little-known, beautiful and fascinating work by Beethoven - the Kreutzer Sonata - originally written for a Black musician, George Bridgetower, who was a friend of Beethoven’s. This work also inspired the Russian classic author, Tolstoy - who wrote a great tragicomic and satiric short story inspired by Beethoven’s deep, psychological and exquisite tones. The blend of sophistication and beauty, complexity and aesthetic radiance, was a good fit for the stylistically classical yet deeply psychological, modernistic great Russian writer! And produced via indirect inspiration, a truly amazing gorgeously written story.
This concert featured the first performance in St. Louis of Beethoven’s Symphony no. 2, Opus 36. Featured on the program was the Austrian pianist Alfred Jaell (1832-1882), a pupil of Czerny. Jaell’s very successful extended tour of the U.S. lasted from 1851-1854. The presenters of this concert found it necessary to admonish the audience to arrive on time, “it being very annoying to the performers, and to those who enjoy Beethoven’s masterwork, to be disturbed by late arrivals.” As a chamber musician, Jaell frequently appeared with the violinists Ole Bull (1810-1880) and Henryk Wieniawski (1835-1880), whose performances of Beethoven’s “Kreutzer” Sonata were highly praised.
Beethoven’s pedagogy and theory as well as ideas about style, methodology, form, aesthetics and technique, had a lasting and historic influence. They are also still preserved in manuscript form today. A distinguished and highly accomplished music theorist and pedagogue and musician, decided to preserve them, and compiled Beethoven’s writings on these diverse and complex subjects with additional personal and aesthetic commentary of his own. These are classics of music pedagogy and instruction, as well as theory and technique today. They are also classic works on style, artistry, aesthetics. And, classic manuscripts of form and composition. In short this was a revolutionary and bold vision had, and it has been reserved, with additional comments. The preserved historic manuscripts, are classics of these genres and remain influential. And eminent and important. They are revealing of timeless and universal issues of music as well as of a historical snapshot of Beethoven’s day, music in Beethoven’s day, Beethoven’s music, and Beethoven’s music in Beethoven’s day. As well as snapshots of simply how Beethoven saw/approached his own music; and music in general. In short these are historical treasures. They have been carefully preserved.
The prominent German conductor, pianist, teacher, and composer Hans von Bülow was also the first husband of Franz Liszt’s daughter Cosima, who left him for Richard Wagner. Bülow’s career as a conductor was already well underway when he turned to Liszt for retraining in piano, which as a child he had studied with Friedrich Wieck, Clara Schumann’s father. Under Liszt’s guidance, he followed a strict practicing regimen and earned his teacher’s praise as a talent that would place him “in the first rank of the greatest pianists.” He did extensive touring beginning in 1872, including 139 concerts in the United States in 1875-1876. In his 50s he demonstrated his stamina by performing all five of Beethoven’s late sonatas in a single concert. In 1872, his editions of many of Beethoven’s piano works appeared as volumes 4-5 of the Instructive Edition of Classical Piano Music, with a dedication to Liszt.
The music quoted in this autographed document is from the last movement of Beethoven’s “Appassionata” Sonata, Opus 57, with fingerings added using the English system.
….
Czerny impacted and taught Liszt, and was himself impacted and taught by Beethoven. D’Albert was a star student of Liszt, who early on in studies and career developed a passion for German composers generally and the work and legacy of Beethoven in particular. Indirectly through Czerny, Beethoven also had an impact on another great musical artist, Eugen D’Albert. D’Albert specialized in Beethoven’s works and was renowned for his achievement and excellence in these roles.

Autograph letter from Eugen d’Albert to Herr Kraus, Coburg, April 26, 1886Gift of the American Beethoven Society, 2010 [m2b030]
The pianist Eugen d’Albert was still a teenager when he was sent to Vienna in 1881 to meet Liszt, who accepted him as a student. They worked together in Weimar, and Liszt came to consider d’Albert as one of his most outstanding pupils. However, d’Albert had less affinity for the programmatic music that was then in vogue (including the music of Liszt) than for the German masters. He became a leading interpreter of Beethoven’s music. In 1961, the American pianist Andor Foldes published this reminiscence of hearing d’Albert in concert:
"I will never forget Eugen d'Albert, that great titan of the piano, whose solo and orchestral concerts were the delight of my childhood and the never-to-be-topped ideal of my youth. Especially do I cherish one particular matinée he gave about 1924 in Budapest's largest theatre, the Varosi Szinhaz, seating some 2,200 people. It started with the Emperor, after which the interval enabled the audience to catch its breath, and provided occasion at the same time to clear the stage of desks and chairs, so that in the second half the Master occupied the entire tremendous platform himself, playing various solo works of Beethoven, including the Appassionata and the Rage over a Lost Penny in a grandiose, royal manner which still rings in my ears. The beginning of the Emperorfinale was - or so it seemed to me at the time - a unique miracle of ferociousness and dare-devilry. It was, I felt, the epitome of heroism, the last word in what a human being was able to do in recapturing the untamed spirit of one Ludwig van Beethoven - long gone from our midst, yet triumphantly alive thanks to such an interpreter as d'Albert.”
The handwritten inscription on display underneath the photograph reads “Auf Ihre ges. Anfrage jedenfalls: Beethoven” (“To answer your question, of course: Beethoven”).
In this letter d’Albert mentions his upcoming performances of Beethoven’s Piano Sonata in E-flat Major, Opus 31, no. 3 and the “Waldstein” Sonata, Opus 53.
….
Through Eugen D’Albert and his passion, deep appreciation, and carrying on the works and legacy of Beethoven’s music, Beethoven also influenced another famous musician. This musician was also an inventor, and innovator of important musical technology. Beethoven sure had prolific influence! - and as both musician and composer himself, as well as Professor, theorist and pedagogue. And author and public intellectual. Wilhelm Backhaus, studied with D’Albert, very determined D’Albert specifically should be his Professor. D’Albert coached him in Beethoven’s works among other things. Backhaus went on to become an outstanding pianist and iconic interpreter of Beethoven; one of the leading and classical interpreters of Beethoven of his day.
Backhaus’ writings and inscriptions in the musical manuscript express and are indicative of two connections to Beethoven. They express his being influenced and inspired by Beethoven through both his Professor, D’Albert; and Liszt, who taught D’Albert. Who was also an admirer of Beethoven’s works as well as connected to Beethoven via Czerny.
After studies at the Leipzig Conservatory, a young German pianist named Wilhelm Backhaus went to Frankfurt am Main in 1898 for private lessons with Eugen d’Albert. Although at that time d’Albert refused to take pupils, the precocious Backhaus “forced the door open. “How did I dare to do it?,” he later pondered during an interview. “D’Albert didn’t even give lessons, his time was very precious and he was determined not to waste it! By a miracle, however, I found favor in his eyes. At any rate he didn’t begrudge me his attention for in that year (1898) he let me play to him more than twenty-five times!” Backhaus returned to London two years later to embark on a solo concert career, and in 1902 performed Beethoven’s Fourth Concerto with the Hallé Orchestra conducted by Hans Richter after the scheduled pianist fell ill. The music he quotes in this autograph is from the slow movement the Fourth Concerto, under which Backhaus added the caption “Orpheus in the Underworld.” It was d’Albert’s teacher Franz Liszt who first attached the description of Orpheus taming the Furies in Hades with his lyre to the second movement of Beethoven’s concerto.

Backhaus was one of the earliest concert pianists to make recordings. In the early 20th century, technology for recording on phonograph records was still in its infancy. However, at the end of the nineteenth century several piano makers had developed piano roll technology to reproduce performances on a pianola, or player piano. The piano roll consists of a roll of paper with punched holes. Each hole represents the position and length of the note played on a piano. As the role moves over a tracker bar in a player piano, the note sounds. As early as 1904, the Welte-Mignon firm in Germany began using this technology to record famous pianists/composers such as Claude Debussy and Richard Strauss.
….
In addition to being a renowned musician and interpreter of Beethoven, Backhaus also was an inventor. He invented a pertinent invention to and for classical music. This would revolutionize the art, and its technicality - and also influence and inspire future great composers such as for example, Debussy.
After Backhaus won the Anton Rubinstein competition in 1905, his touring took him frequently to North and South America. This program was for one of eight concerts in Buenos Aires featuring the complete cycle of Beethoven’s 32 piano sonatas and other works. The program contains a slight misprint: the Sonata no. 25 is Opus 79, not Opus 69 as printed here. By the 1950s Backhaus was regarded as a Beethoven interpreter with few rivals, and his series of Beethoven recitals at Carnegie Hall received wide acclaim.
….
The Jewish pianist, Arthur Schnabel, also highly acclaimed, was likewise connected to Beethoven via Czerny. An American originally from Poland, Schnabel was also a prodigy, beginning his performing career as a boy; he was a composer and created his own classical as well as contemporary compositions, versatile in talent which encompassed classical as well as contemporary styles, methodology and technicality.
Schnabel also produced an important set of historic Beethoven manuscripts, writing as a music historian and theorist. He helped preserve Beethoven’s legacy as well as created his own this way. His manuscript collections are widely renowned. They constitute a book series, and underwent additional reprinting condensed into two thorough and extensive volumes. Schnabel was also a Professor and pedagogue himself. He help keep alive Beethoven’s piano legacy and musical greatness and legacy generally. He also preserved in influential classics, a new way, based thoroughly on Beethoven’s original ideas of understanding Beethoven and his role and legacy in music history; as well as Beethoven’s core ideas and concepts. And expression and art.
Schnabel’s continued piano historical discussions represented the continued flame of art and music of the great Beethoven. Beethoven’s prodigy skills have thus echoed and resonated all the way to the present.
They inspired so many and influenced them too - direct and indirect students, heirs and descendants. Beethoven’s ideas and vision as well as prodigy skills, have proved durable indeed. And a lasting influence and inspiration, which again, lasts to this day. It ripples through history and its ripple effects are still being felt and consequences and legacy. As is the influence and inspiration.
Beethoven’s works and prodigy virtuosity are of historic import. How fortunate that this Holocaust refugee preserved their core ideas and systematic theory so that we can still read from them and learn from them, as well as know what they are in very directly accessible as well as historically accurate, historically authentic, and historically faithful and historically revealing form. What an amazing snapshot. What an amazing legacy for continuing musical ideas from a then-present into future into more future, into today.
Arthur Schnabel
Artur Schnabel studied piano in Vienna with the great Polish pianist Theodor Leschetizky (1830-1915), one of Czerny’s students, and began his concert career at the age of 8. However, his years in Berlin from about 1919-1924 were the most formative in his development as a musician. During this period, in addition to exploring contemporary music and composing his own works, he was also developing his own personal style in the interpretation of Beethoven. In 1927, for the 100th anniversary of Beethoven’s death, Schnabel performed a complete cycle of Beethoven’s 32 sonatas, repeating this series in 1932 and then in London in 1934. His free approach lacked the technical polish of some other pianists (such as Backhaus), but his interpretations have been described as imaginative and visionary, “still faithful to the composer’s intention, to the spirit rather than the letter.” Leschitzky described his student not as a pianist but as a musician, one who transcended the boundaries of his instrument (an assessment that Beethoven himself would likely relate to). In 1939 he and his wife fled Nazi Germany to the United States, and he became an American citizen in 1944. Schnabel’s famous editions of the Beethoven sonatas first appeared in installments in 1924-1927 and have been reprinted many times as a tw0-volume set. The pianist Claude Frank, who studied with Schnabel, described this edition as “an inspiring, detailed and eloquent description of Schnabel's conception.”
In 1932 Schnabel contracted with His Master’s Voice to record all of the Beethoven sonatas, the first pianist to undertake such a project. Shortly afterward he also recorded all five of Beethoven’s concertos. For this 78 rpm recording, five discs were required to capture the entire Fifth Concerto.
In short, Beethoven was indeed a prodigy. His works and achievement on the piano caused the great Mozart himself to remark with awe - this when Beethoven was but a teen.
[LINKED_TEXT: Prodigy to Progeny — American Beethoven SocietyThe “Easy” Sonatas, Opus 49 Most of Beethoven’s sonatas for fortepiano are full of technical and musical challenges, but he did write some easier works intended for students. Among these works are his two so-called “easy” sonatas, which he probably composed mostly for his friends and students and not for wider circulation. However, his brother Carl took it upon himself to offer the sonatas to several publishers, first to Johann André in Offenbach in 1802 and then to the firm Breitkopf & Härtel in Leipzig 1803. Finally, in January 1805 the Viennese firm, the Bureau d’Arts et d’Industrie, published the two sonatas for sale to the public for 2 florins, a price roughly equivalent to the fee for a 2-hour fortepiano lesson. Since then, countless thousands of piano teachers have assigned these sonatas to their students.

Beethoven’s talent however, came into full bloom most in later life. Unlike Mozart he seems to have more of a childhood. His father was not so much a stage father and he seems to have played out of passion and youthful feeling which matured into commitment. Indeed, it was quite a deep commitment; which resonates, literally and figuratively, and profoundly, to now. However, there had to be nonetheless, a lot of pressure and expectation at a young age!
Rather like Balanchine’s baby ballerinas, who were dancing professionally as teens, Beethoven supported his family through his art and talent at a young age. This wasn’t only the baby ballerinas - Darci Kistler was accepted into the New York City Ballet at sixteen, incidentally, with tremendous pressure to fill the void of Farrell’s then recent departure! Kirkland likewise was a lead ballerina at seventeen. And Farrell, described vividly missing the early part of an important rehearsal at New York City Ballet because, at the time, she was completing a high-school algebra exam!
What was Beethoven’s early life like?
Beethoven left school at 11 and followed the family tradition of becoming a court musician in Bonn, Germany. The death of his mother in 1787 hit hard. After that, Beethoven’s father drank even more and just about held on to his job. Beethoven took responsibility for his younger siblings.
When did he first learn piano?
Mozart’s father promoted his son’s talents from an early age and they toured around Europe. Beethoven’s father was less ambitious. He organised one concert showcasing Beethoven as a piano prodigy. Luckily, Beethoven’s music tutors saw more in him. He was hired as an organist in the court chapel.
By his teens, Beethoven was gaining a reputation for his piano improvisations. He impressed Austrian composer Joseph Haydn on a visit to Bonn and later studied with him in Vienna.

Ludwig van Beethoven, born in Bonn in December 1770, the son of Johann van Beethoven, a Flemish-German teacher, and singer employed in the service of the Elector of Cologne. His musical talent recognized and cultivated from an early age. From the age of 9 or 10, he took lessons from the court organist and composer, Christian Gottlob Neefe. He stated that Beethoven ‘would become a second Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart if he continued as he has begun.
Beethoven subsequently took on assistant organist and violist positions in the court orchestra. His first publication – a set of three keyboard sonatas – appeared in 1783. In 1787, he left for Vienna, to study with Mozart, but the visit cut short after his mother fell ill. He returned five years later to take lessons with Joseph Haydn. This time decided to make the Habsburg capital his home and resided there for the rest of his life.
Ludwig van Beethoven’s early renown derived from his virtuosity as a pianist demonstrated in public and private concerts. His first two published opuses in Vienna consisted of piano trios and solo piano sonatas, respectively, dedicated to Haydn. A series of five piano concertos followed, between 1795 and 1810, the first four of which Beethoven himself premiered. He also performed works by other composers, such as Mozart’s Piano Concerto no. 20 in D minor, and was famous for his improvisations. Teaching the piano also formed an essential element of his activities in his early career, supplementing his income. Notable aristocratic pupils included Archduke Rudolf of Austria and Countess Giulietta Guicciardi , to whom Beethoven dedicated the ‘Moonlight’ piano sonata.

He was a prodigy. His talent however matured into most full blossom and beauteous culmination in his later years, with such works as the Ninth Symphony, chamber music, cantatas and songs and dances, famous string quartets (a total of sixteen), and more.

Every year, the top 5 mutual funds changes. How can we select in a particular fund for a longer period of 15+ years? | It’s important that we realize the purpose behind what we are doing and why we are doing only that.
The most critical things to ponder about:
Why are we chasing top 5 mutual funds?Is a mutual fund bad because it is 6th?Can’t a fund in 8th position this year help us achieve our financial goal?
If the answer to (1) is that we want to own the best and the best only, I’m sorry to state that there is no such permanently best and the best only Thing in the world. Thing or object, animate or inanimate - there is no such forever best thing in life, or in any walk of life.
That’s why we just need to dump this active investing, accept the market itself as our fund manager, and invest in index mutual funds for its beautifully low recurring expenses. Add to it a liquid fund (to define and implement your asset allocation from time to time), and you have the most practical portfolio. Whatever be the size: INR 10,000 or INR 1,00,00,000 .
If you can’t believe it, just check the corpus under the management of SBI Nifty 50 Index ETF
[LINKED_TEXT: [1]] [URL: #XqePH]: INR 1 lakh crore (sure, a tad less as of March 31st 2021, but with the consistent 3800 crore inflow a month, it’s going to hit 1 L Crore in a matter of a calendar quarter). Still, that Equity Index Fund works great, generating equivalent to what the Nifty 50 does, year on year, decade on decade, without a hiss or a fuss. Summary: whether an individual investor wants to lose all their time in The Eternally Elusive Chase of The Top 5, or smile all the way being content with market linked returns for years & decades, just like a serious & institutional money manager, is their choice.

What are some of the shrewdest, smartest military maneuvers ever seen?Was it a significant point in history? | I can’t believe no one has mentioned Sherman’s March Through Georgia during the American civil war. Sherman understood how critical logistics are—and the power of propagnda as well. His march didn’t really involve fighting, or holding territory. He just went through Georgia to the sea across a wide front behind enemy lines, burning all the plantations and freeing all the slaves and destroying all the infrastructure.
It may well be the most cost-effect manuver in the history of warfare.
[LINKED_TEXT: Sherman's March through Georgia] [URL: http://www.conservapedia.com/Sherman%27s_March_through_Georgia]
Starving soldiers can’t fight, and soldiers whose homes have been invaded and despoiled get pretty bummed along with being starved.
Sherman was one of the Union’s greatest treasures.
War buffs don’t think of him because they think there wasn’t any clever manuvering, but in fact there was. He used census data and other information to plot an advance that simultaneously destroyed the most productive lands, while also randomizing his advance so the Confederate military couldn’t figure out where he was going, and thus were never able to mount an effective defense.
In other words it was like this scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark:

What is on-page SEO? | Yes, it’s true that with the continuous changes in Google’s algorithm, you need to focus on many different factors for a higher ranking of your product. But various factors need to be considered forever.
On-Page SEO is one of them.
On-page SEO refers to the optimization techniques applied directly to your website's pages to improve their visibility in search engine results.
It involves optimizing elements like content, HTML tags, meta tags, URLs, and internal links to enhance relevance and user experience.
You need to focus on various factors for making your On-Page SEO better.
Keywords: You need to identify the keywords your target audience is searching for and include them naturally in your headlines, subheadings, paragraphs, and image alt tags. But remember, don't overstuff it—keep it natural and reader-friendly.
Quality Content: Content reigns supreme in on-page SEO. You need to create high-quality, informative, and engaging content that meets the needs of your audience. Valuable content not only attracts readers but also earns backlinks from other websites, boosting your search engine rankings.
Meta Tags: Meta tags are snippets of code that provide information to search engines about your web pages. The two important meta tags are the title tag and the meta description. Craft compelling and relevant titles and descriptions that entice users to click on your search result and improve your click-through rate (CTR).
URL Structure: Optimize your URLs to be concise, descriptive, and keyword-rich. Use hyphens to separate words and make them readable for both search engines and users. A well-structured URL improves your website's usability and makes it easier to crawl and index by search engines.
Internal Linking: Linking relevant pages within your website helps search engines understand your site's structure and improves user navigation. Incorporate internal links strategically to guide users to other valuable content on your website. This boosts user engagement, and time spent on your site, and signals to search engines that your content is authoritative.
Mobile-Friendly Design: With the majority of internet users accessing the web via mobile devices, having a mobile-friendly website is crucial. Ensure your website is responsive and provides a seamless experience across different screen sizes. Mobile-friendly websites receive preferential treatment from search engines, leading to higher rankings.

How do UPSC aspirants feel at the stage of preparation? | Feeling is something which you cannot induce forcibly upon yourself. You cannot ask how does it feel lose a loved one and later on try to induce that feeling upon yourself. We all know that it feels “Bad” to lose a loved one but that ‘BAD’ can hold different meanings and different intensity for different people. Its a feeling which you will automatically experience when you lose your loved one and that feeling may not be the same what others in your family experience although they have lost the same individual! You might find someone crying their hearts out but others not even shedding a drop of tear and moving on very easily. Suppose you are not feeling an urge to cry but you are trying to cry artificially so as to fit-in the scene then that means you are faking your emotions and doing injustice with the scenario. Same is the case with UPSC. The general perception is that every UPSC aspirant feels uncertain, depressed, anxious etc at some point of their preparation but its again something which you will experience only when you start preparing for UPSC yourself and whatever would be the feeling at that time would be the most real and actual feeling. If in order to just go on with the perception you try to induce that feeling upon yourself then you might end up as a non serious candidate. A serious candidate is worried about syllabus, books and his level of preparation and not about these abstract things.

Why do you think that Target has been so successful in the United States but not in Canada? | Target did an excellent job on understanding Canadian rules etc. Stores were very well kept. However they made 2 mistakes:
Lack of comparative stock of goods
pricing model
Both did not come up to expectations and product range and quality expectations were not met. People only went to the stores if they had a big sale or something they knew that store had. Depth of inventory was poor.
I also think they lacked the patience to stay in the market. It takes time to get acceptance.

How did a plane crash on the upper floors of the World Trade Center result in the entire building collapsing? | You probably need to speak to a structural engineer about that one. But from the TV shows I have seen, the extreme temperatures of the fire(s) caused structural failures in key parts of the buildings. Also, as I understand it, the unique design of WTC may have contributed to the collapses.

These days, the systems are pretty much on par with each other and it all comes down to the user on his/her preferences.

How can I remove everything after the last number seen in a String in Java? | This is by far the easiest solution to this problem. Given the string “abcd12345ff”, then we would want to remove everything after the 5. So we can use the code:
String str = “abcd12345ff”; str = str.replaceAll(“\\D+$”, “”); System.out.println(str);
OUTPUT: abcd12345
It doesn’t get any simpler than this. The /D will match any character equivalent to [^0–9], the + says to matches the previous token between 1 and unlimited number of times and the $ asserts the position at the end of the string.

How long does radiation from cell phone towers stay in your body? | If you’re not interested in the science, just jump to the end and see what the real danger is.
Your question is misled, it doesn’t actually make much sense, here’s why: Radiation is any thing or concept that moves from a place outward.
When you stand in front of a fireplace or oven, and the radiating heat warms your face, how long does that stay in your body?
When you are in a pool, and the splash from a diver radiates across the water toward you, how long does that stay in your body?
When a beautiful person smiles and radiates happiness in your direction, how long does that stay in your body?
The mistake you’ve made is in assuming that “radiation” is inherently tangible, harmful and persistent.
About what scientists call “radiation”:
The reason some radiation scares us is primarily because of nuclear radiation. This is stray alpha, gamma and beta waves that come from the super-high-energy changes in an atomic nucleus. Depending on the form, inhaling, touching or being near this kind of radiation can cause serious damage.
A lot of the nuclear by-products are radioactive components that your body likes to absorb, such as radioactive iodine. That stays in your body. Anti-radiation “tablets” are actually lots of safe iodine, to convince your body not to absorb any of the radioactive iodine.
And it’s not that the radiation stuck to the iodine. It’s that the nuclear decay created a bad kind of iodine.
Cell towers do not emit nuclear radiation. At all.
About the specific type of radiation:
Cell phone towers emit signals across a few frequencies - usually from about 800MHz (0.8GHz) to 2.4GHz. It is most similar to the low-end radiation coming from a warm fire, since that kind of radiation is carried by photons.
However, fire usually spits out even higher-energy photons, at around 300GHz and higher. As far as quantity, cell phone towers emit approximately 500 watts, maybe more. A typical gas fireplace emits more than 10 times that.
How electromagnetic (radio) radiation works:
The the radio signals radiating away from cell towers and warm fires is carried by photons. They don’t “stay” anywhere. They always move at the speed of light because they are a form of light. Or more accurately, light is made from a specific range of photon energies, and cell towers and fireplaces have a lower photon energy than visible light.
Light also happens to be on the dividing line of “ionizing” and “non-ionizing” photons. Lower-energy, non-ionizing photons like cell signals can’t really change chemical bonds. Higher-energy photons, like sunlight, can; it can change DNA, burn your skin and cause cancer. Ultraviolet light is definitely harmful.
And the answer to your question: It doesn’t stay in your body at all. While there is some research showing that the presence of radio signals might affect how your body works, the effect is small, difficult to measure, and not persistent. The time it takes your body to heal, particularly from harmful radiation like ultraviolet light, might be considered how long the symptoms “stay in your body,” and for a typical sunburn, it’s just a couple days. But cell signals can’t cause a sunburn.
So here’s the real danger: Of all the kinds of radiation discussed above, there is only one thing that average people will be impacted by: ultraviolet light. Of all concerns you have, there is one behavior that will carry more benefit than any and all of the fretting about cell towers: wear sunscreen.

What is your worst cinema experience? | I had many bad experience in movie theatres,but this was horrible.
When I was studying engineering in Ujjain city(M.P) . Movies is the only option for entertainment [LINKED_TEXT: .] [URL: http://entertainment.me/] I went with my roomate to watch “Baby”movie as show was housefull when we checked on counter there was one older man which was giving movie tickets for free and the name of the movie was Baba Ram Rahim MSG ( messenger of god) .
Without the seconds thought we took tickets from him because we were not having any options and Indian never deny anything which is free.Instead of the name MSG ,God didn't give us omens what was going to next. So at entrance of PVR security guards gave us some instructions instead of saying “namaste” or good afternoon which they usually do.
Security guard gave us 3 instructions that we have to follow . I thought these are banal rules.
1 . You can't talk as well criticize while watching movie,
2. You can't leave the movie in between.
3. You have to clap during baba entry and baba self composed songs.
We got puzzled , suddenly we saw a queue of people like they are standing on the gate of temple. Someone told us that the old man which distributed tickets came with bus from village.
When we got inside the audi we saw females are sitting on left side and males are on right. All the front seats were acquired by cult because they thought it was “samagam”(communion) .
We sat at the back seats of male side .
After watching Mukesh tobacco causes cancer social advertisement .we did not realized that this movie can cause brain hemorrhage,
movie started with “Jaykara” by the cult sitting in front seats.movie started with entry song” never ever “ baba ji sang english songs
7 pathetic songs by godman baba ji which could beat dhinchak pooja .
the movie showed him immortal. He is invincible. He can rest in middle of the clouds, he can lift an elephant, he can burn a spaceship, he can win over aliens and only he can save the entire universe even I think he is the one who could defeat “thanos”.
We tried to escape in intermission but the security guard reminded us the instruction that you cant go out before the movie finish,Even the popcorn guy was laughing on us.
I can never forget those 180 + minutes,

If you walk into a buffet restaurant technically during their "lunch times" but leave during "dinner times" assuming they are two different prices which price do you get charged? | I haven’t gone to a buffet in a long time, but the last time I went (a “Hometown Buffet” I think), they shut down for an hour or two between the two meals. That way, no one could linger between two meals and “all you can eat” was in context of “until that meal closes” right up front.

Is FLAC as good as WAV? | Yes flac is a ‘lossless’ compression that when decoded is the same as the WAV it was encoded from. You could liken this to the way in which when you extract a .zip archive it is digitally the same file as before the compression. The difference is when you play a flac file the decoding is happening in real time.

Why do waitresses ask if Coke is okay instead of Pepsi? Do you think it makes a big difference if you get Coke or Pepsi? | Because they taste different. Pepsi is sweeter than Coke. If you order orange juice and the restaurant only has mango juice, wouldn’t you want them to ask if mango juice was okay rather than just serve you something you didn’t order?

Earlier, I asked about the easiest song Keith Moon played, so tell me, what's the hardest song Keith Moon has played with The Who? | Having played nearly every Who song there was during my career, I’m picking two.
Now for an accomplished, professional drummer, I don’t think he’d have too much trouble playing any Who song once he listened to it a few times.
For a novice to intermediate drummer, I’m going to first pick The Ox as the most difficult Who song to drum to. This is a thundering duel between Moon and bass player Entwistle. Continuous drum roll throughout the song. The trick to the song is getting the accents right, and there are different accents throughout the sections of the song, it is not just a simple roll throughout, and the different accents and different drums used in certain parts are what makes this song difficult to reproduce like the recording. Moon’s snare has the snare wires off, turning his snare into a tom.
In one of my bands, we used to start the night off with this song using our psychedelic lights to full effect. I was never happy about this because as a drummer, I liked to warm up a bit before attempting something soloish but the guys wanted to start the night out with a bang and that song accomplished that.
Again, I chose this song not because it’s that difficult to drum to but it’s difficult to get sounding right with all the different accents and drum rolls. Good workout though. Puts Safaris Wipeout to shame. The Ox is John Entwistle’s nickname. Great piano playing in the background.
Next I’m picking My Generation not because the main song is that difficult to drum to, but it’s the end of the song that’s difficult to replicate because Moon is all over the place with no rhyme or reason. It’s a free for all with everybody and trying to make that sound like the record is difficult.
Some have mentioned I Can See For Miles, however that is a pretty easy song to play as is Happy Jack.
By the way, one of my favorite Who songs is Pictures of Lily. Great melody, lyrics, harmony and music. Fun to drum to also.
HERE IT IS, THE OX. SHOW THEM HOW IT’S DONE KEITH. IF NO SOUND UNMUTE.
If this doesn’t play, let me know.

How can a piece of paper folded 103 times be larger than the observable universe? | It can’t.
Because you cannot fold a peice of paper that many times.

Lesson 2 - if you want to explore pure maths problems, treat them as pure math problems. Not paper folding ones.

Has the official version of C++20 been released yet, and to what extents do compilers (MSVC, GCC, etc.) support it? | Quite possibly never, if there’s some obscure corner of the standard that’s not a priority and never gets implemented. [LINKED_TEXT: (See Sergey Zubkov’s comment for a couple examples.)] [URL: https://www.quora.com/When-will-GCC-and-Clang-have-full-support-of-C-20/answer/Joe-Zbiciak/comment/134400442]
Realistically, you might look at [LINKED_TEXT: C++ Standards Support in GCC] [URL: https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx-status.html] to get an idea of what features remain to be implemented, and use that to judge GCC’s rate of progress. It looks like quite a lot is already there. I imagine GCC 11.x will be fairly complete.
As for Clang, it technically does not have complete C++17 support yet. Its C++20 list shows more red, but that may just be a difference in reporting style. I have not dug into the details one iota. See: [LINKED_TEXT: C++20, C++17, C++14, C++11 and C++98 Status] [URL: https://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status.html]
I say give them both about a year. Even if the compiler doesn’t have complete C++20 support, it may be sufficiently complete that you can start using the new language and benefitting from it. For example, I started using GCC’s C++17 support before its execution policy support was available. No problem for me. I still got to use structured bindings and constexpr if.

Is the US safe for East Asians now? If I'm a Taiwanese or Japanese, are we going to be discriminated against? | Well, I'm American of Japanese ancestry, I've lived and traveled all over the US for more than 65 years. Racial anti-Asian discrimination isn't a problem anywhere that I've seen. Yes, in 1955 there were some anti-Japanese people because they had recently returned from fighting the Japanese in World War II, but I haven't seen anything that could be called anti-Asian discrimination since the 1950s.

This has caused some tension and direct competition among other major airlines, as they now have to compete with Emirates on price, services, and overall customer experience.
Many airlines feel they are unable to compete and are seeing customers move away from their airlines to Emirates, often leading to lower ticket sales, less revenue, and ultimately, lower profits.
But despite this, Emirates have been able to expand their services across the globe with their premium amenities and great value for money, making them a force to be reckoned with in the airline industry.

The Oberoi Udaivilas is a beautiful and majestic property in the city and exudes radiance and elegance through each of its corners. Since it is an Oberoi property, it is one of the best accommodations in the city. However, some added brownie points include the royal bathtub in the Maharaja Suite, a minibar with the choicest red and white wines, washrooms with a separate shower cubicle guarded with perforated glass, and of course, the royal butlers to assist and take care of the guests. The butlers are uniformed personnel appointed to help and take care of the guests of a particular room. The charges are all included within the room rent and thus, you can enjoy these luxury services without any worries.

The Biden administration and key NATO allies have announced they'll remove certain Russian banks from the SWIFT financial messaging system, which will pretty much bar these banks from international transactions. How might this change Putin's course? | I am not as clever as those policy-maker sitting in Moscow, WDC or Berlin but I have a little commonsense.
If those sanctions are supposed to put fear in Putin, why they were not put BEFORE the event and thus prevent Russian invasion itself?For weeks US officials were saying, “Russia is going to attack after Olympic opening ceremony”, “It will attack on Wednesday” blah blah. It means, they were quite certain attack would happen AND YET did not put those sanctions. WHY?Only today I read, US is giving $350 million in arms & assistance. Why waited till now?Now I see NATO arming the Ukrainian forces. Why? They want the conflict to continue?
My conclusions are -
NATO & USA never wanted the invasion NOT to happen.They wanted Russia inside Ukraine and then fight NATO, Ukraine be the scapegoat.Do they think, Putin will now pull back out of fear?What if Putin takes more drastic action?What if the conflict spills over?What if China openly supports Russia?Why they still don’t advise Ukraine to surrender & go for negotiations?You put yourself these questions, you will know - they want Ukraine to stay that way, a hell-hole!
We should not take Putin for a fool. Right or wrong, he has his own views, calculations, plans and actions. At least so far, his thinking seems to be working out as he planned.
I remember to have read somewhere, a few days before the invasion one Russian minister said, “Thank God, we have $635billion in gold & reserves!”
Putin must have expected the SWIFT action, he must have expected the potential freezing of Russian and Russians’ assets.
Putin anticipated RIGHTLY that the USA & Western Europe would not lift a little finger to help Ukraine, that they have no energy - literally - to resist Russian action on Ukraine.
Per reports, Russia government & individuals put together hold about $650 billion in UK alone. Do you think UK would freeze or appropriate all that dough?
You should not take all that loud noise for real intentions. Sanctions and stuff is just for the consumption of the gullible, an eye-wash for the world to think, “Yeah! We are punishing this guy!”
Say, They proclaim they froze all assets of Putin and others. How do you know they actually did? How can you say they will not “unfreeze” - whatever symbolic freezing they do - later on very quietly? As I explained below that SWIFT stuff itself is purely symbolic, will not hurt Russia.
Just think - Russia had been working towards this invasion for 12 years & more. Would it not have anticipated the fall-out and had worked around that in the first place?
The Russia - West Europe Nord Stream 2 has American interest in that, about $1.2 billion or so. Do you think American & European businesses (e.g. Shell et al) would lose money just for the sake of “protecting democracy” in Ukraine?
“The world is not doing anything to help us” - President Volodymyr Zelensky. He should not have expected any!
“I learned my proper lessons!”
“I knew you would!!”
I wonder what Volodymyr Zelenskyy reasoned when he ran after NATO membership and thus gave the excuses to Russia. He should have known the true nature of the West & USA. If he were any clever, he would have tried to keep his country neutral, neither under NATO nor under Russian umbrella. He was too scared of the Russians to think clearly of the impact of what he was trying to do.
The bottom-line
NATO went on expanding right in Russia’s backyard despite the many assurances given over 30 years and it was a threat for Russia. The last straw on Russia’s back was, NATO egging on Ukraine with promises it knew it would not able to keep. Zelenskyy was naive enough to trust false promises and making enemies of his immediate neighbor Russia. To be fair to the USA, it did try to draft Ukraine into NATO but there was always stiff resistance from Western Europe.
For some reason best known to him, Zelenskyy expected NATO to come to his rescue. When NATO did not, he was shocked of course but everybody else was nodding - “Yes, we knew they would not”. Thus, Zelenskyy’s fear became a self-fulfilling prophesy of his own making.
What truly surprises me is, instead of looking for NATO umbrella, Ukraine could have demanded to stay a neutral buffer. In such a case, protecting that buffer status of Ukraine would be an obligation on both sides, Russia and NATO watching each other like hawks! That way Ukraine could escape being dominated by Russia.
What is SWIFT?
(wrote sometime before 23/Feb)
SWIFT is just one very small part in the picture. I will first explain it and then move on to the core issues.
The SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) is designed to be a secure platform for global financial institutions to exchange information about global financial transactions (for example, money transfers). SWIFT does not actually move money, it is a middleman that verifies information on transactions.
For the ban to work, it would need US’ European allies to agree for the ban.SWIFT operates out of Brussels, Belgium. SWIFT being a global platform, Belgium may not like to be seen as being under the control of the US.SWIFT is a neutral commercial platform, its operators would not easily let that neutrality be compromised under US pressure.
How effective will be the SWIFT ban?
Keeping Russia out of SWIFT will hurt them or US is only making just a gesture?
Being cut off from SWIFT will make it a challenge for Russians to send/receive money from other countries. It will be difficult for Russian financial institutions to transact internationally. The ban may eventually impact Russian businesses, especially it’s global energy companies.
During the last seven years or so, Russia has built up alternatives, which include the SPFS (System for Transfer of Financial Messages) developed by the Central Bank of Russia. It is said, the Chinese are involved in this (developing alternatives to SWIFT).
We can't assume Putin did not account the SWIFT threat into his planning. He had been planning for the current event for quite many years.
The weakness of the West European countries
About 50% of Germany's gas supplies come from Russia (Nord Stream 1 and 2). It won't be easy for US to talk Germany out of it. Germany (and some Germans including lawmakers) is too deeply into it.The Nord Stream 2 is designed to eventually meet 90% of West Europe's needs, many other countries have a stake here. Even if US manages all of them, it must find alternative supplies from the Gulf.It will mean, long delays and higher cost for Germany & others.This solution will be worse than the problem itself as it will take crude above the current $100/barrel price.The Gulf will certainly use the opportunity to make more money and it also gets political leverage with respect to US.The rest of the world (including China) who have nothing to do with the Ukraine crisis would not like that scenario.
Thus, this gas connection is the ace in Putin’s hand. Biden knows this but he must show himself to be doing something. To sum up, US can not take Western Europe along with its plans if it has any.
Will sanctions work?
When Russia annexed Crimea in 2014, Obama's reaction was feeble. His Administration levied some sanctions on Russia. Though Russian economy was weak then, those sanctions did not hurt them. Actually, Russia managed to work around these sanctions. Today Russia is said to have $635 billion in cash & gold, its economy is stronger than it was in 2014. Some American experts say, US “going hard on” Russia with sanctions will be again counterproductive.
Pushing Russia will be like US playing China game. If US gets (militarily) tied up at Ukraine, China will work on its Taiwan plan on the correct assumption that US can not address two vastly separated geographies.
Besides, Both Xi and Putin know, post Afghanistan debacle, Biden won't get any popular support for a brand new venture. Add to that, US economy is far from booming.
The sum up is, Putin holds a stronger suit of cards, Biden knows that.
The geopolitics
We can not put the entire blame on Russia. Like US's NATO, Russia wants to build & maintain its own sphere of influence. Ukraine being a buffer country, you can hardly expect Russia to approve that country becoming a part of NATO (meaning NATO armaments and personnel). This is one of the core reasons for Putin’s war threat.
It is a no-win game actually. Now Putin has that “I won’t let NATO sit next door” excuse BUT if the NATO doesn’t not admit Ukraine (say, to please Putin), Putin will still annex Ukraine, with no resistance at all. The West Europe will be only watching helplessly. Ukraine once again becoming part of Russian sphere will scare all the further West countries.
History
Historically speaking, Russia held parts of Ukraine for centuries (along with other countries). It is incorrect to assume Ukraine has always been a nice & well-defined piece of chunk.
The Eastern part of Ukraine (Donbass), containing the two pro-Russia regions that got 'recognized' by Russia a couple of days ago, are rich in minerals and are fertile. This is one of the reasons Russia wants them.Since the days of Catherine the Great, Russia systematically "Russified" the lands we now call Ukraine.One third of Ukrainians speak Russian, about 40% of them have Russian ancestry.
All these points should tell us, the problem of Ukraine can not be solved by US & the West.
One point I wish to add, it is a mistake to take Russia and China as permanent friends. They are actually competitors for the World #1 position. China will side with Russia only so much & only so far. If you saw that, China did NOT veto the UNSC Resolution, it only abstained. I don’t think Putin does not know China for what it is.

For those who deny the Aryan migration theory, how can one explain the similarities between Sanskrit and European languages? | Language and ancestry/"race" are two different things.
By way of illustration, it may be pointed out in this connection that English is spoken at the present day by, among others, the Hong Kong Chinamen, the American Red Indians and negroes, by the natives of Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, and the Scottish Highlands, besides the descendants of the ancient Britons, the Jutes, the Angles, the Saxons, the Norsemen, the Danes, and the Normans in England, but all these peoples cannot be classified in the racial sense simply as Englishmen. Similarly, the varied types of humanity who are Aryan in speech cannot all be regarded as representatives of the “Aryan race”, that is, if we accept the theory of an “Aryan race”, which Virchow, by the way, has characterized as “a pure fiction”. (author’s emphasis)
Max Müller in his closing years, faced this aspect of the problem frankly and courageously. “Aryas”, he wrote, “are those who speak Aryan languages, whatever their colour, whatever their blood. In calling them Aryas we predicate nothing of them except that the grammar of their language is Aryan. . . . I have declared again and again that if I say Aryas, I mean neither blood, nor bones, nor hair, nor skull; I mean simply those who speak an Aryan language. The same applies to Hindus, Greeks, Romans, Germans, Celts, and Slays. When I speak of these I commit myself to no anatomical characteristics. The blue-eyed and fair-haired Scandinavians may have been conquerors or conquered, they may have adopted the language of their darker lords or their subjects, or vice versa. I assert nothing beyond their language when I call them Hindus, Greeks, Romans, Germans, Celts, and Sla[v]s, and in that sense, and in that sense only, do I say that even the blackest Hindus represent an earlier stage of Aryan speech and thought than the fairest Scandinavians. . . . To me an ethnologist who speaks of an Aryan race, Aryan blood, Aryan eyes and hair, is as great a sinner as a linguist who speaks of a dolichocephalic dictionary or a brachycephalic grammar.”
Aside from random chance, West Asians (“Europeans”) do not descend from Aryans, regardless of which language they speak, and they know it.
They either don’t know their origins, or are hiding them:
The desire to have ancestors as illustrious and grand as possible can be found with all European peoples.
The Romans believed their ancestors to origin from Troy.The medieval Spanish aristocracy put emphasis on their superior Visigothic blood which not only made them different from their subjects but also put them above them.The French continue to become chronic schizophrenics as soon as they are to decide whether they are descendants either of Vercingetorix and the Gauls (Celts) or of Charles The Great (Charlemagne) and the Franks (Teutons).Some English seemingly not satisfied with their mix of Briton, Anglo-Saxonian, Viking and Norman predecessors still found it necessary to have one lost tribe of Israel driven to their coasts in order to make sure they have even older and religiously more important ancestors.Now the Germans meant to see the roots of their own history in the changes caused by the very migration of the peoples that had caused the illustrious ancestors of their neighbors. Considering that even Tacitus mentioned that the Teutons were “of pure blood”, not at all mixed with other races and (therefore) authochtone, there seemed to be hardly any reason to doubt their Northern European origin.When the Church needed a relation to the bible, Ashkenaz, one of Japhet’s grandsons, was found who discovered a way to Northern Europe and thus established the Teutons even within this frame. Especially during the time of Reformation one was proud to be different from the degenerated and corrupt Roman world. [4]
Essentially, they are inventing their origins as they go along. It is a peculiar habit of western Asian (“European”) culture that continues today. In academic discussions, such efforts should be seen as nothing other than absurd.
Under Christian influence, Europeans claimed biblical heritage. Soon, another group came from the heart of Asia- the steppes- and they, too, had a claim to biblical lineage. They were the Khazarian converts to Talmudic Judaism. (If you’ve noticed, most Ashkenazi Jews hail back to areas in or around the Eurasian steppes- the same location as Khazaria). The fact that they were racially similar, but culturally distant from these arriving Jews compounded the problem settled Europeans had had with Jews from pre-Christian days (Roman Empire). So they expelled them hundreds of times. And they looked for a new, non-Biblical heritage to attach themselves to.

What happens when a title search doesn't find an HOA associated with a house that is being purchased then the HOA president claims the title search company made a mistake and the house belongs to the HOA? | What happens when a title search doesn't find an HOA associated with a house that is being purchased then the HOA president claims the title search company made a mistake and the house belongs to the HOA?
Ask for proof. If no proof is tendered, tell them to pound sand. If they harass you, contact your lawyer.If they do present something that looks like proof, contact the title company to have it verified. If they verify it… well, that’s what title insurance is for! Now you just need to figure out how much the title company owe you for their mistake. Hire a lawyer.If the title company can’t verify the “proof” the HOA gives you, return to point 1.
My guess is it’s one of three things: Either when the HOA was formed, the property owner at the time did not join, and could not be forced to join, or the HOA is an informal, unregistered entity with no authority at all, no different than asking people to join in to help pay for a block party, or when the HOA was formed, the previous owner had the right to refuse to join (and did not), but the HOA thinks that the exemption left with the previous owner.
If you’re lucky, the HOA people will realize their mistake(s), and go away. But I think we both know you’re in for a fight of some sort, and even if you win, they’re going to have sour grapes, and will be passive-aggressive forever.

Why does a short circuit pop a breaker (in simple terms)? | It’s very simple but we must first understand Ohms Law. Voltage = Current x Resistance. (E=IR)
In an electrical circuit the cue to that flows depends upon the resistance of the circuit.
A fault occurs when the current increases because a short circuit allows the current to flow through a shorter circuit without flowing through the load.
the circuit breaker is installed in the circuit to protect the conductor from overheating.
when the current increases due to this short circuit the circuit breaker operates (pops) to protect the conductor from damage.
This is true for the small domestic circuit breakers and also for large circuit breakers in 11,000volt distribution substations and even the 275,000vokt transmission substations.

So I ended up having to use 15 minutes of sick time rather than normal break because of anxiety. This could theoretically have been an ADA violation and a HIPAA violation if I had pursued it.

Who is headless CMS for? | " A more flexible variant of CMS is the headless CMS. HTML, CSS, and content are all housed in one location in typical CMSs, making content reuse difficult. The presentation layer is separated from the body in headless CMS. The presentation layer is seen here as the head. APIs are used to distribute content to a variety of devices consistently. To export content to the presentation layer, certain CMS platforms provide headless APIs. The headless CMS could be a solution to traditional CMS's inadequacies."
The Advantages of a Headless CMS or an API-First CMS
Managing and publishing content becomes easy.API allows content to be served to numerous devices.You can concentrate on content as an author and publisher.For publishing, you have a variety of front-end frameworks to pick from.

What is the strangest convention you've ever been to? | I was going to an Orioles game in Baltimore. I noticed some adult males with children’s backpacks in the lobby of our hotel. I thought I’d was strange, but whatever. Then I started seeing lots more similar backpacks and cosplayers. Turns out, there was a “bronie” convention in town. For those who are unfamiliar, bronies are people who are huge fans of My Little Pony.
Our hotel was ground central for people going to the convention, it was very weird. I’d heard of bronies but had never encountered them. Seeing an adult male in a pony costume drinking White Russians at the bar was…different. My wife and I sat in comfy chairs and watched the parade.
To be fair, at one point, I struck up a conversation with a normal looking woman at the bar. I asked her what she thought of the participants. She was there for the convention. She told me that her daughter was severely autistic, and My Little Pony is very popular among people with autism. The people who put on the convention are very good at accommodating their needs. She said before her daughter discovered MLP, she was very withdrawn and non-communicative, but she could now share something with her daughter, and it opened up lines of communication.
So yes, there were lots of oddballs, but props to the organizers for accommodating people with autism.

What is the weirdest object you've ever found? | In either 1980 or 1981 my brother and I were out exploring deep in the woods out by Flagg Lake on Barksdale, AFB, LA. We stumbled across an old, over grown homestead, complete with cabin, small barn and well. It was literally in the middle of nowhere and had been there a long, long time as the trees were mature all around and up to the buildings. When we got back I told my neighbor friends dad who was the senior military police officer on the base.
About a week later an archeological team from LSU showed up and my brother and I took them out to the place. They spent a few weeks out there excavating. I never learned whether or not they found anything of interest. I do know that they seemed to think it was built sometime in the late 18th or early 19th century. At least that was their impression when we first got to site. I don't know if they later changed their minds about it. I also don't know if it was considered a significant find but they seemed pretty excited about it on the way out there.
Anyway it was pretty cool. I wish we would e had smart phones back then. I could've taken some pictures.

Would you do the same thing to Chris Rock if you were Will Smith? | [LINKED_TEXT: Carla Turner] [URL: https://www.quora.com/profile/Carla-Turner-50] and [LINKED_TEXT: Laurie S Billton] [URL: https://www.quora.com/profile/Laurie-S-Billton].
What terrible answers that paint a false narrative. I’m using this answer to call you guys out.
Anyone who defends Will Smith or Jada is a joke.
Chris Rock’s job is to be a comedian. He’s meant to make comedy and jokes out of things, places, events, and people. That includes Jada. She’s not immune to a joke.
And here’s the thing. If you actually look at the footage, you can clearly see Will Smith laughing along with the joke. It’s until Jada gives the stink eye that Will reacts.
With the recent videos that have been resurfaced, it’s not surprising. Jada mentally abused Will Smith. That’s no secret. She decides to have a relationship with a rapper who’s friends with her son… yeah… and then the video of Will Smith basically begging Jada to stop is just another sign of that. The only reason he stays with her is because he does believe in multiple chances and wants to stay faithful. It’s not bad, but if I were in his shoes, I would divorce her immediately. Anybody who acts like Jada should not be in a relationship. Simple as that.
Will Smith’s break down in the Oscars reflects that. It’s sad, but even that doesn’t excuse him from anything. So making the excuse that “he was simply defending his wife” is a pathetic cover up. And it’s a cover up in the guise of righteousness covering up the fact that people like [LINKED_TEXT: Carla Turner] [URL: https://www.quora.com/profile/Carla-Turner-50] and [LINKED_TEXT: Laurie S Billton] [URL: https://www.quora.com/profile/Laurie-S-Billton] and other like them want heavier regulations on speech and are trying to dissolve the sphere of comedy to do so.
Reason? Just so that they don’t have to deal with opposing opinions. Simple as that. Don’t believe me? Look at their comment sections. Oh yeah, they disabled them. It shows that they know what their intentions are and that deep down, they know Will Smith was in the wrong.
It would’ve made sense if Chris Rock came up to them in the street and started teasing and poking fun at Jada for no reason. But he’s on stage now. He’s in his profession. And he’s going to make jokes. If you can’t take a joke, live with it. But it most certainly does not excuse one of walking up and slapping said comedian. Just look at all the things comedians joke about. Do you honestly think some dude’s wife, who’s the wife of a person they know very well, should be exempt from jokes at all? People don’t understand the point of comedy. It’s purpose is to poke fun at literally everything. If you don’t like that, then don’t watch it. That choice is entirely up to you.
But it certainly does not excuse any violence ones commits. And it most certainly does not excuse the want to regulate speech at all fronts, including the sphere of comedy, like [LINKED_TEXT: Laurie S Billton] [URL: https://www.quora.com/profile/Laurie-S-Billton] or [LINKED_TEXT: Carla Turner] [URL: https://www.quora.com/profile/Carla-Turner-50] or others like them want.

Heard lot of gurus say go deep or go inside. Where should I go? What is go inside? | Start with simply sitting and allowing your awareness to follow what you see without creating a word in your mind. If you see something yellow, mind says yellow right now. If you see a dog mind says dog. Isn’t it? Everything you see somehow you in your mind must tell yourself what it is. Yes or no? If yes then stop allowing mind to label what is seen. Just look. Just see with eyes and exclude the mind commentary. As you sit and use eyes, mind does not be engaged. Only eyes see. Eyes can only see. Eyes say no words. Eyes do not label. Eyes do not care what they look at. Eyes simply see. Isn’t it? So just look around and see things. Let them just be without a label or name. Let all things just be there.
This is an exercise to start training yourself to see alone. Hear alone. Taste alone. Touch alone. Smell alone. These are complete functions of the body on their own. Mind has no place unless there is need to support. Mind is brain in motion. Thought is action of the brain. Brain is the physical organ. Until we understand this we short cut and think it’s all one thing. And if these attributes become one, naturally everything that is attached also becomes one. Even if it’s not directly attached, a mind motion that is churning up memories from intellect will find a way to justify a connection. Now the motion of the thoughts we think is in control of our perception of life. Now we are living outside of ourselves in a motion of our mind we think is real. Now we are a shallow limited life. Always making conclusions about everything and never truly knowing life. Just our mind motion memory of things learned. This is not intelligence. This is not reality. This is a surface motion of our mind thinking it knows what’s going on. And we believe it. Life seems random and chaotic. Because there is no depth. Intelligence is deep. Intelligence runs the body while all this mind happens. Intelligence turns fo...

What is the difference between Angular and AngularJS? | We are living in an era where we are conveniently using mobile applications for connecting with people, healthcare, shopping online, online banking, etc. These mobile apps are highly convenient as they are helping us with our day-to-day tasks, offering seamless user experiences and interfaces. One of the most widely used frameworks is Angular, making it easy to create robust apps. Angular and AngularJS are both open source web application frameworks,
Angular is a popular typescript framework developed by Google for creating mobile applications whereas AngularJS is an open-source frontend framework to create single page applications on the web.
Some of the major differences are:
Code of AngularJS is written in Javascript and code of Angular is written in typescript.In AngularJS a hierarchical dependency injection system is used whereas it is not preferred in Angular.Applications developed by AngularJS are not mobile friendly and the applications created by Angular are mobile friendly.AngularJs is hard to handle with increasing length of source code and the case is not same with AngularAngularJs supports the Model-View-Controller design whereas Angular uses components and directives.
These are some of the differentiators of these two. However [LINKED_TEXT: AngularJS is highly popular] [URL: https://www.borderlessmind.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-before-hiring-remote-angularjs-developers/] these days and is widely used for front-end development especially in highly interactive web applications.

What are some things that only electrical and electronics engineers know, but most people don't? | 1. Charged Battery weighs slightly more than uncharged.
When it is charged, it has more energy than when it is uncharged. This means when the battery is charged it will weigh slightly more than when it is uncharged.
The formula, E=mC^2 gives relation between energy and mass. that gives, m = E/C^2 When you plug in your charger... you actually store potential energy in the battery and hence as you charge, you put in an extra energy and hence, an extra mass. Considering a phone's battery which is 3.7 V and 2000 mAh. The maximum amount of energy that can be stored = voltage multiplied by capacity in Ah. Consider a discharged battery,,,, typically weighing about 40g. Energy stored = 0 J On a full charge, extra energy supplied = 3.7 * 2 = 7.4 J Mass equivalent = 7.4/c^2 = 8.22 * 10^(-14) g. ie... now your battery weighs about 40.00000000000000008222222222 g.
2. Fully loaded flash-drive weighs more than an empty one.
Let's remind ourselves about what data really is. Data is 1's and 0's stored on some medium.
For flash storage the 1's and 0's are stored by trapping electrons. These electrons have a weight of [math]1[/math][math]/[/math][math]1820[/math] unit which is the equivalent of 1.7×10^(-24) grams.
The more data a flash drive stores on it, the more electrons are trapped. For 4GB of data, the difference between full and empty is 10^(-18) grams. For 32GB, it'd be 8 times of that.
These calculations were done back in 2011 by University of California at Berkeley professor of computer science [LINKED_TEXT: John D. Kubiatowicz] [URL: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~kubitron/] for Amazon’s Kindle e-reader, but they’d be applicable to any flash drive.
3. You can get Electrical shocks from DC adapters i.e. your mobile, laptop chargers, USB ports, Audio/Video jacks et.c.(Usually people believe that DC circuits can not deliver shocks).
laptop and mobile chargers have Switch mode power supply (SMPS) inside them and there can be a leakage across transformer due to some coupling capacitors(Y capacitors) between primary and secondary winding of transformer. Such devices should be fitted with Three pin Plug(one for passing leakage current to earth), but unfortunately they are not. the reason people usually do not get shocks from these device is the plastic casing.
you can see the glowing tester touched to the metallic body of a mobile phone which is connected to a DC adapter/charger.
4. You can get electrical shocks from a electronic device or circuit which is not live(offline) or not connected to any wall socket or battery.
Electronic devices some time have very large capacitors(e.g. laptop chargers) which has stored charge in it, one can get a heavy shock if both the terminal of the capacitor is accidentally touched.
5. One can use our physical earth/ground as an electrical path or just like a conducting wire.
You do not need to run a couple of wire from electric power station to your house, a single wire(positive/live) is enough. the another (negative/neutral) can be connected to physical ground. because in power stations one of the terminal of the generator is connected to ground.
6. There is no role of satellite in cellular communication .
Mostly people believe that satellites are used for cellular communication which is a myth, instead it uses cell phone towers for end user connectivity and fibre optics cable for long distance connectivity.

How accurate is the depiction of Pharaohs in Ancient Egyptian art? | Most of these paintings and engravings are/were done as a proper likeness to show the power and majesty of the person and how he/she contributed to their own legacies.
However, Pharoah Ikhnaton chose to be shown as he really was and had some physical disabilities that he tried to overcome while serving his people and family as a good and just ruler. His belief in one God is why he got into a lot of trouble with his own people and led to his downfall. One of my great uncles, the late Dr. AO Steele, who was the chairman of the Division of the Humanities at Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte, NC and also an activist in the Civil Rights Movement in the late 1950 and well into the 1960s, wrote a sermon during the early years of WWII and mentioned him as someone to admire because he stood up for his beliefs. The sermon is called “A Sermon for Today” and can be located in the Archives at the JCSU Library in the AO and Dot Steele Papers. He was a hero of mine and was one of my dad’s uncles. A nice man, he listened to all of his students and never talked down to them but with them. I have a copy of the sermon and it is excelllent. He is one of my role models.

What are some short stories about wives? | My parents were in the US in 2014 for my graduation and one day we drove to the Indian store to get some groceries. Once we were done there we had to go to IKEA, I typed in the address in the GPS and we started driving.
GPS took us all the way onto the interstate before taking us to IKEA which was actually very close to the Indian store and we could have reached there without getting onto the interstate.
My father who had been observing the GPS the whole day said
'This thing sounds like a wife. You should do the opposite of what it actually says'.
And after he observed the process flow at IKEA he said
'This thing sounds like a tougher wife. You have to do everything yourself and pay them'. He could not understand the GPS or IKEA just like he could not understand his wife- My Mother.
