![]() In reality, however, this kind of thinking does not apply when it comes to presidents because no one has ever given them an “absolute” right to do what they want. It is important for citizens and politicians alike not to believe that any action taken by a leader is lawful simply because he or she calls it “martial law.” This belief would lead them into believing that future presidents could do whatever they want with no consequences for violating their oaths of office.If this happens, it would be up to Congress whether they want to remove that person from office permanently or just temporarily while they investigate their actions during martial law. Presidents who violate their oaths of office may also be impeached and removed from office as a result of their actions during martial law.If a president violates the Constitution by usurping power, it could lead to impeachment proceedings against him or her and removal from office immediately after Congress terminates his or her term. But a president cannot stay in office if he or she violates the Constitution during martial law.The military may be called upon to enforce martial law, but the president remains in office from that point on until Congress terminates his or her term. During this time, the president has the authority to assume power and control all government functions. Martial law is actually a state of heightened readiness to respond to an emergency. This is because the Constitution allows for a president to assume power in times of emergency. A president can stay in office during martial law. ![]() This means that some rights can be suspended during this period unless otherwise specified in the statute itself. For example, Congress passed an act declaring martial law for Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria in 2017.

![]() It's one of this well-scoped apps that doesn't try to do too much and would suffer bloat if it added every user suggestion. ![]() It even has modest time-tracking capabilities, a report of intervals worked and CSV export if you want to geek out your analysis. Type in what you're working on, press the "Play" icon to start, and get to it. As a timer with reporting, Be Focused is great. I find the Windows version more convenient, since most of my work is at the computer, but I'm glad for the phone version syncing with it when I'm on the run or planning. I use Be Focused Pro daily, both on my iPhone and Windows. Overall, great product, but for my needs I'd love some adjustments! (I sometimes track my words written per hour in a spreadsheet, so the little differences matter there.) The only options are to let it run to 20 or "skip" entirely, so I can't get an accurate accounting of my time later. Also, if I work for 18 out of 20 minutes and have to stop, it won't record that interval correctly. ![]() It would be nice to have a default schedule in settings, but be able to modify the length of the current interval on the fly. If I sit down with 18 minutes to work, or 35, I can't edit the interval for a one-time session without going into settings and modifying the entire schedule, which I then have to change again next time. ![]() I have an ideal schedule set up in the app - e.g., 8 intervals of 20 minutes each - but more than half the time that's not how my day looks. Sometimes I'm setting out to work on something (writing specifically) based on the amount of time I have available, rather than an ideal schedule of X intervals of X minutes each. I'm a busy mom with several types of work on my plate every day. ![]() I do wish I could edit intervals on the fly, though. I like the way this app works (Windows OS), and how it tucks away neatly while you're working. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Notwithstanding the other provisions of this subdivision, land that is currently devoted principally to wildlife management as defined by Subdivision (7)(B) or (C) to the degree of intensity generally accepted in the area qualifies for appraisal as qualified open-space land under this subchapter regardless of the manner in which the land was used in any preceding year. For the purposes of this subdivision, appurtenances to the land means private roads, dams, reservoirs, water wells, canals, ditches, terraces, and other reshapings of the soil, fences, and riparian water rights. Qualified open-space land includes all appurtenances to the land. “(1) “ Qualified open-space land” means land that is currently devoted principally to agricultural use to the degree of intensity generally accepted in the area and that has been devoted principally to agricultural use or to production of timber or forest products for five of the preceding seven years or land that is used principally as an ecological laboratory by a public or private college or university. The change from 2012 allowing beekeeping is in the last sentence of paragraph (2). The law covering agricultural use related to beekeeping is Texas Tax Code under Chapter 23, Subchapter D, Section 23.52 (1) and (2). What Does the Law Say About Property Tax and Bees? In that case you would need 6 acres to qualify. Many counties remove an acre for buildings or a homestead. Texas law restricts the property covered by this valuation to between 5 and 20 acres, so you must have at least 5 acres to qualify. How Many Acres Does the Law Allow for Keeping Bees? ![]() Our grocery stores produce aisle would look very different without the fruits and vegetables beekeeping makes possible for us. It is claimed that three out of five bites of food we take are dependant on pollinators. ” Pollination is vital to agriculture, and bees are managed pollinators… the only economically viable managed pollinator. Why does the State Offer an Agricultural Tax Break for Beekeeping?Īccording to the State Comptroller’s Office “The aim is for landowners to realize property tax savings to encourage them to continue to produce vital agricultural products, such as livestock, cotton, timber, milk and corn. It might be good for you to use that term when you talk to them, but let’s face it, regular folks just call it ag exempt. When you talk to the appraisal district, they sometimes balk at the word “exemption”. Are we Talking About Ag Exemption or Special Valuation? This post is designed to walk you through the requirements for raising bees for a tax break, minimum and maximum acreage and an estimate of money you could save. It can be somewhat complex, but there are a few things you need to know to make this easier for you. Understanding all you need to know about beekeeping for agricultural ‘exemption’ is daunting, and getting information from your appraisal district can be a little intimidating. ![]() ![]() You can then add each of those JPanels to your main JPanel. If this is incorrect terminology, please inform me. Make a separate JPanel for each line, and set the dimensions to fit each word: JLabel wordlabel new JLabel ('Word') JPanel word1 new JPanel () tPreferredSize (new Dimension (,) This should work for each word. I come from web development where increasing the margins is what I want to do. If the horizontal space in the container is too small to put all the components in one row, the FlowLayout class uses multiple rows. And when you resize the window scrollbar should appear if some items are out the viewplane. Note that scrollbar is disabled when it is not necessary. How to prevent Java ScrollBar from being enabled in FlowLayout when there is enough space to show all items by warping them. In this case, as the Oracle tutorial says: 'The FlowLayout class puts components in a row, sized at their preferred size. Show ScrollBars in FlowLayout only when necessary. It is similar to a vertical version of (which is strictly horizontal) with 2 key exceptions: It puts components in a single column. Here, we will look at just three of these layout manager classes: FlowLayout, BorderLayout, and GridLayout. A composite Border class used to compose two Border objects into a single border by nesting an inside Border object within the insets of an outside Border object. Usually, when setSize () doesnt work, try with setPreferredSize (). while the labels on the red panel are all on. ![]() Don't set the layout of the content pane to use a BoxLayout. So extra space is allocated to both the red and green panels. When using a BoxLayout, the components will grow up to the maximum size when extra space is available. They are defined by classes in the package java.awt. For some reason the JPanel of the buttons (green) takes up too much space. Between the left and right sides of the panel and the JFrame 6.7.1 Basic Layout Managers Java has a variety of standard layout managers that can be used as parameters in the setLayout () method.Between the top of the Criteria panel and the JFrame.Between the right of the text boxes and left of the labels.I've highlighted in red where I want to increase the margin: Then, set the values for JFrame layout, size, and visibility. Right now I am just focusing on creating the "Criteria" section (yes I know I spelled it wrong in the picture) To set the FlowLayout for JFrame, first create the JFrame and insert generated components. ![]() Here is a picture of what I am trying to make: 1.) BorderLayout : Overloaded Constructor : BorderLayout (int horizontalGap, int verticalGap) Getter and setter methods For Horizontal Spacing : BorderLayout.getHgap () and tHgap (int hgap) For Vertical Spacing : BorderLayout. But it makes me feel bad that I used the editor for this, so now I am trying to make the same design using code. 1 FlowLayout is doing what it suggests, flowing components left to right till it has no space and then goes on next line, with different layouts you can do what you need. ![]() Examples will illustrate the first four layout. Using Netbeans' GUI creator thing, I managed to make something I liked. For a Panel (including an Applet ), the default layout is FlowLayout for a Window this is BorderLayout.

When he saw he was going to lose, Daichi just ran from Geats. Daichi was more cautious of Geats but not Keiwa. Also, this is a given, Geats didn’t want to kill, Keiwa did. I don’t know how they did, but even Ace, who is largely tolerant, if not amused by those around him, surely cannot stand someone who acts like Daichi does.

But he didn’t take into account of Tsumuri abilities to make things into existence. Daichi estimated that he could take on a heartbroken Keiwa with ease, even with the twin set buckle (jet cannon). Keiwa has matured greatly, but there was one new variable, Tsumuri. This is why he didn’t reveal himself until he was sure he could mentally destroy Keiwa, cause Geats could see through everything that Daichi can do. But with Keiwa he sees him as a non entity to be easily dealt with. You have to remember that Daichi has always been cautious of Geats. * Kamen Rider Ginpen– the Penguin Rider is the oldest participant to date a company executive named Takato Taira with a link to Kamen Rider Tycoon.

Still, one book that I read long after my college days- The Wise Men: Six Friends and the World They Made, by Walter Isaacson and Evan Thomas, illuminated this side of government more than any other book I ever read. I learned a lot about the bureaucracy in my undergraduate political science classes. Still, I lacked an appreciation of the career officials’ role in the formulation of foreign policy-those highly educated men and women, devoted to public service and dedicated to life-long study of significant issues facing the nation and the world, advising the elected leaders from inside the State Department.

MORE: How Dream Therapy Can Change Your Life ![]() “Norepinephrine is associated with stress, and it affects the degree to which the amygdala - the fear center of the brain - is sensitive to stimuli,” says Itamar Lerner, co-author of the new paper and a postdoctoral sleep researcher at Rutgers University. But the part of the brain that secretes norepinephrine during wakefulness and non-REM sleep takes a break during REM sleep. Researchers aren’t certain why this happens. “The more REM, the weaker the fear-related effect,” the authors write in their paper. ![]() “It provides a nocturnal soothing balm that takes the short edges off of our emotional experiences so we feel better the next day.”Īdding to that research, the most recent study - from researchers at Rutgers University - suggests that the quality of a person’s sleep before a traumatic event can play a role in how the brain reacts to a scary situation. “I think of dreaming as overnight therapy,” Walker says. Walker and his colleagues have also found that people who view emotional images before getting a good night’s sleep are less likely to have strong reactions to the same images the next day, compared to those who didn’t sleep well. Walker’s research, for example, has demonstrated that people who achieved REM sleep during a nap were better able to judge facial expressions afterward than those who’d napped without reaching REM. Several studies in recent years have suggested that REM sleep can affect how accurately people can read emotions and process external stimuli. What are the health benefits of REM sleep? “Everything we see, every conversation we have, is chewed on and swallowed and filtered through while we dream, and either excreted or assimilated,” he says. Naiman describes the brain during REM sleep as a sort of “second gut” that digests all of the information gathered that day. Scientists are divided as to whether dreams are simply a product of random neurons firing during sleep, or if they’re something more - like a data dump that helps the brain separate important memories from non-important ones, or a way for people to prepare for challenges and play through different scenarios in their heads. (The dreams you remember when you wake up are only part of REM sleep, says Walker in reality, the brain is highly active throughout the entire phase.) But there is also decreased activity in other regions, like the one involved in rational thought - hence the reason for extremely lucid, but often nonsensical, dreams. ![]() And because longer periods of REM sleep only happen during the final hours of sleep (in the early morning, for most people), it can get cut off when you don’t spend a full seven or eight hours in bed, says psychologist Rubin Naiman, a sleep and dream specialist at the University of Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine and the author of a recent review about dreaming published in the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences.ĭuring REM sleep, there is more activity in the visual, motor, emotional and autobiographical memory regions of the brain, says Matthew Walker, professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley and author of the new book Why We Sleep. REM sleep stages tend to be relatively short during the first two-thirds of the night as the body prioritizes deeper, slow-wave sleep. ![]() ![]() ![]() When asked about the gym, he added, “This gives me a feel for a world class gym in my hometown to the standards I delivered in my career. “The parents and kids were amazed and couldn’t believe their eyes with all rushing to get a picture, autograph and one kid Zain taking his shirt off for an autoraph.” ![]() “We were delighted but didn’t want to raise expectations in case he had a cancellation where the kids would be heartbroken.

In the past competitions were pretty strict on what you could and could not play from a program balance standpoint, but these days free repertoire selection is becoming increasingly common. There is no one size fits all when it comes to repertoire selections. Also when it comes to looking at the repertoire lists of past competitors and audition lists choose wisely. Don’t play Mozart if you hate it that Haydn Sonata would fit the bill nicely. The other issue with repertoire selection is picking pieces that you connect with. If there’s a really difficult piece in your program then make sure to surround it with pieces that you can really own. I would select high level works that can stand their own competitively, but that you also feel good about performing. Instead juries are interested in how well you’ve mastered your repertoire.Ĭhoose solid repertoire that you’re 100% comfortable with and grow from there. Contrary to popular belief, most juries are not concerned with someone who plays the most flamboyant showpiece. Those pianists usually crash and burn from music overload and never getting a full artistic (or technical) grip on the works. I’ve seen many pianists enter various competitions and auditions trying to play the most difficult thing they can. The amount of performance anxiety you’ll get by default is one thing, so to combine that with frantic last-minute preparation is a bad recipe. This gives you enough time to chart out what repertoire you want to perform and put together a solid game plan to learn it and master it. If it’s for a competition then there’s no excuses for having memory slips because of poor preparation.īecause of this I recommend choosing your auditions and various competitions a year in advance. If it’s for a music school obviously you want to know your piano repertoire inside out.
