Concrete Examples of Orderings
Last week, I noted that if you have an object with two components, each of which you know how to order independently, it requires at least a little thought to figure out how to do so. Moreover, there is a commonly used strategy, often called lexicographical order or dictionary order, for taking the ordering strategies for individual components and combining them.
The C++ library is considerate enough to implement dictionary ordering for its users in (at least) three places. The first is the
std::pair template, which defines the six comparison operators in terms of the corresponding operators of the pair's components. Specifically,
pair(x1, y1) < pair(x2, y2) is defined as x1 or ==. Part of its technique for doing so rests on the fact that the comparison x2 < x1 can take place only when it has already been established that x1 pair(x2, y2) is defined as pair(x2, y2) < pair(x1, y1) pair(x1, y1)!= pair(x2, y2) is defined as!(pair(x1, y1) == pair(x2, y2)) pair(x1, y1) <= pair(x2, y2) is defined as!(pair(x1, y1) > pair(x2, y2)) pair(x1, y1) >= pair(x2, y2) is defined as!(pair(x1, y1)< pair(x2, y2))
The underlying principles are easy to understand once explained:
- The pair template never depends on more than the == and < operations on the components.
- Order relations are defined entirely in terms of other order relations.
- Equality relations are defined entirely in terms of other equality relations.
- If the element types have relations defined that meet the library requirements, then the resulting relations on pairs will also meet the library requirements.
As a generalization of
pair, the library tuple template also implements the six comparison operators in terms of < and == on the
tuple's elements. Like
tuple does not reply on the other four comparison operators on elements.
The third place where the library implements dictionary order is in the
lexicographical_compare algorithm. This algorithm accepts two pairs of iterators, each of which defines a range of elements, and uses an extended version of this comparison procedure to compare the sequences:
- If both sequences have the same length and every element is equal to the corresponding element of the other sequence, the two sequences are considered equal. This case holds even if both sequences are empty.
- If one sequence is a prefix of the other, the shorter sequence is considered less than the other.
- Otherwise, the result of the comparison is the result of comparing the elements that make up the first discrepancy between the sequences.
This function offers an easy way to define sequence comparison in terms of element comparison when all the elements have the same type.
Unless there is a good reason to do otherwise, one's first thought about how to define comparison between two data structures should probably be to compare the data structure's elements along the lines that we've been discussing. The main mistake that beginners make is to believe that it is possible to define
pair(x1, y1) < pair(x2, y2) as something such as
x1 < x2 && y1 < y2, which doesn't work.
There is another pitfall in defining comparison relations: Sometimes the obvious way of comparing individual elements doesn't always work. We'll look at some examples of that pitfall next week.

Extreme reading among the zoo animals
Thursday 23 October 2008
Two schoolgirl bookworms found some novel places to browse, by taking their homework to ZSL Whipsnade Zoo for some 'extreme reading'.
Jessica Ackers and Francesca Cross, both 10, let their imagination run riot when their school asked pupils to think of 'unusual, funny or surprising' locations for reading a book, to celebrate Children's Book Week.
The pair, from Oakwood Primary School in St Albans, wrote to ZSL Whipsnade Zoo and initially asked to read while sitting on an elephant or giraffe. 'If our thoughts are too dangerous to carry out we would love it if you could suggest something else for us to do', they asked.
Whipsnade were happy to oblige with the latter option and keepers allowed the girls to test their nerve by reading among the lively lemurs on lemur island, while being watched over by our female giraffe Savannah and sitting in the elephant paddock.
The girls found the experience amazing and had to use all their concentration skills to keep their eyes on the books and not the animals.
Jessica said: 'We found the giraffe quite easy as she was eating the leaves but the lemurs were hard!'
'There were so many of them and they were all around you with their paws on the books!' added Francesca. Both girls love reading and enjoy fiction books. Francesca had just read an appropriate book called 'White Giraffe' by Lauren St John.

17.2.7 2D Kernel Density
The 2D Kernel Density plot is a smoothed color density representation of the scatterplot, based on kernel density estimation, a nonparametric technique for probability density functions. The goal of density estimation is to take a finite sample of data and to infer the underyling probability density function everywhere, including where no data point are presented. In kernel density estimation, the contribution of each data point is smoothed out from a single point into a region of vicinity. These smoothed density plot shows an average trend for the scatter plot.
Creating 2D Kernel Density Plot
To create a 2D Kernel Density plot:
- Highlight one Y column.
- Open 2D Kernel Density plot dialog by clicking Plot > Contour: 2D Kernel Density.
- In the plot_kde2 dialog box, specify the Method, Number of Grid Points in X/Y and the Number of Points to Display, and Plot Type.
- Click OK to create a 2D Kernel Density plot.
The Dialog of plot_kde2
Specify the input data.
- Bandwidth Method
- Specify the bandwidth calculation method of the 2D Kernel Density plot.
- Bivariate Kernel Density Estimator
- Rules of Thumb
- Density Method
- Specify a method to calculate the kernel density for defined XY grids.
- Choose the option to calculate density values according to the Ks2density equation. For a large dataset, computation of the exact computation may require extensive calculation,
- Binned Approximate Estimation
- Choose the option to calculate approximation of density values. This option is recommended for a large sample.
- Number of Points to Display
- Specify the first N lowest density points to be superimposed on the density image.
- Interpolate Density Points
- Specify the calculation method to decide which points to superimposed on the density image (see details in below Algorithm section). Usually if the number of source data is large (ie. >50000), we strongly recommend to select this option to improve the speed.
- Number of Grid Points in X/Y
- Specify the number of equally spaced grid points for the density estimation.
- Number of Points to Display
- Specify the first N lowest density points to be superimposed on the density image when the checkbox of All is unchecked. Otherwise, it will display all points when the All checkbox is selected by default.
- Grid Range
- As an interim step, a matrix of gridded values is generated from the X/Y data and the kernel density plot is created from the matrix values. By default, the Grid Range registers the minimum and maximum X and Y values in that matrix. Clear the Auto box to enter a value manually.
- X Minimum
- X Maximum
- Y Minimum
- Y Maximum
- Plot Type
- Specify the plot type.
- Use the density matrix to plot contour
- Use the density matrix to make an image plot
Density Estimation data
This determines where the calculated data for the graph is stored.
This determines where the data of the displayed scatter plot is stored. Only available when Number of Points to Display is not 0.
Kernel density estimation is a nonparametric technique to estimate density of scatter points. The goal of density estimation is to estimate underlying probability density function everywhere, including where no data are observed, from the existing scatter points. A kernel function is created with the datum at its center – this ensures that the kernel is symmetric about the datum. Kernel density estimation smooths the contribution of data points to give overall picture of the density of data points.
Density Calculation Method
Specify a method to calculate the kernel density for defined xy grids.
Density values are calculated based on the equation below
where n is the number of elements in vector vX or vY, is ith element in vector vX and is ith element in vector vY. and is the optimal bandwidths values.
Binned Approximate Estimation
Speed up the density calculation by an approximation to the exact estimation of 2D kernel density.
First 2D binning is performed on the (x, y) points to obtain a matrix with the bin counts. Then 2D Fast Fourier Transform is utilized to perform discrete convolutions for calculating density values of each grid.
4th root of density values is calculated to map the density scale to the color scale
Bivariate Kernel Density Estimator
Calculate bandwidth based on linear diffusion process.
Rule of Thumb
The estimation of wx and wy simply can be calculated by:
where n is the size of vector vX or vY, is the sample standard variation for dataset vX, and for dataset vY accordingly.
Interpolate Density Points
Specify the calculation method to decide which points to superimpose on the density image.
If the option is selected, kernel density of points are calculated by the interpolation on the density matrix for defined XY grids. If number of source data is very large, selecting the option can greatly improve the speed.
If the option is not selected, the density values will be calculated by the Exact Estimation method.

The application of the optimization technique known as dynamic programming to the design of "thinned" arrays with unequally-spaced elements is described. Dynamic programming is a systematic procedure for efficiently utilizing the capabilities of modern high-speed digital computing machines to find solutions to problems not computationally feasible by conventional means. In this paper it is applied to the design of linear arrays of 25 elements spaced within a 50 wavelength aperture. The results obtained compare favorably with similar results found by other design techniques. The effect on the sidelobes of varying the angular region of optimization and the spacing-quantization is also explored.

Creating a User and Granting Permissions
Updated at: Sep 29, 2020 GMT+08:00
You can use IAM to implement refined permission control for DAS resources. To be specific, you can:
 - Create IAM users for employees from different departments of your enterprise. In this way, each IAM user has a unique security credential to use DAS resources.
 - Grant only the permissions required for users to perform a specific task.
 - Entrust an account or cloud service to perform professional and efficient O&M on your DAS resources.
If your account does not need individual IAM users, you may skip over this section.
Figure 1 describes how to grant permissions to a user group.
Before granting permissions to a user group, learn about the DAS system policies that can be added, as shown in Permissions Management. For the system policies of other services, see System Permissions.
Process Flow
Figure 1 Process for granting DAS permissions
 1. Create a user group and grant permissions to it.
 Create a user group on the IAM console, and grant the DAS Administrator policy to the group.
 2. Create an IAM user.
 Create a user on the IAM console and add the user to the group created in 1.
 3. Log in to the HUAWEI CLOUD console as the created IAM user, switch to the region where you have been authorized to use DAS, and verify permissions. For details about how to log in to the console, see Logging In as an IAM User.

Did San Luis Obispo produce any goods? Were they well-known for producing anything?
Did San Luis Obispo produce any goods? Were they well-known for producing anything? I'm working on a Mission report and I can't find any literature on
The primary products produced by the missions were cow hides and tallow. The cow hides were also known as Yankee dollars, because they were traded for manufactured goods brought by ships which were mostly from Boston. San Luis Obispo was also famous for being the first mission to make roofing tiles, which the other missions soon copied.
As of 1832, the last year for which records were kept, San Luis Obispo had a herd of 2.500 cattle and 5,432 sheep. San Luis Obispo also had large agricultural fields under cultivation.

On top of hunting and farming, the Natives also helped us create this beloved cliché. To "bury the hatchet" means to create peace. The thought is that when hostilities are no longer needed, weapons, like the hatchet, can be disposed of as well.
When negotiating peace, the North American Indians would actually practice what we preach. They buried all of their weapons-their scalping knives, clubs, tomahawks-into the ground.
Apart of just showing good faith, this would also make it impossible for the fighting to continue. Thus came the popular expression; burying the hatchet. However nowadays, the idea of "burying" the hatchet seems counter-intuitive to most people, they would rather dig up the old ones.


Today's name is Mongo
The name "Mongo" conjures up memories of Blazing Saddles for many of us of a certain age (and thoughts of a hospital for magical maladies for others). However, it is, in fact, a completely period name. It is a variant form of Mungo, the given name of the Scottish saint who is the patron of salmon and of the city of Glasgow. As Mongo, it appears in Scots records as a given name dated to 1490 and c. 1592. [1] In the spelling Mongow, it also appears in Scots records dated to 1579.[1]
Additionally, in one of those odd coincidences that often happens with language, "Mongo" is also a Mongol descriptive nickname meaning "silver."

Can I use a fingerprint reader with Windows?
Yes, you can use a fingerprint reader instead of a password to log on to this version of Windows.
A fingerprint reader is a device that uses your fingerprint to identify you. It works by taking an image of your fingerprint, and then saving a copy of it. When you need to identify yourself, such as when logging on to a website or to Windows, the fingerprint reader scans your fingerprint and compares it to the saved version.
You can use a laptop with a built-in fingerprint reader, or you can buy a standalone fingerprint reader and install it on your computer. For more information about installing and using a fingerprint reader, check the information that came with your computer or fingerprint reader.
Illustration of a laptop with a built-in fingerprint reader and a standalone fingerprint reader
Laptop with built-in fingerprint reader (left) and standalone fingerprint reader (right)
To see if your computer has a fingerprint reader
 - Open Biometric Devices by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type biometrics, and then click Biometric Devices.
If you have a fingerprint reader, but it isn't listed in Biometric Devices, you probably need to install a driver for it that works with this version of Windows. If you upgraded from a previous version of Windows or have an older fingerprint reader, your fingerprint reader might continue to work with Windows, but it won't be listed in Biometric Devices. In that case, you can try updating the driver. If you're using fingerprint management software and you want to uninstall it to update it to a newer version, make sure you know your Windows password. You'll have to restart your computer and log on again after uninstalling the fingerprint management software.
If you have more than one fingerprint reader or you're replacing an existing one with a new one, you might need to scan and save (often referred to as enroll) your fingerprints before you can use the fingerprint reader with Windows. This is because some fingerprint readers save fingerprints in different formats and they can't be shared with other fingerprint readers. To enroll your fingerprints with a fingerprint reader, in Biometric Devices, click Use your fingerprints with Windows.

The etymology of the name Philéole
What does the name Philéole mean and where does this name and our slogan "Make the wind your friend" come from?
Philéole is the contraction of two words that come from ancient Greek. The first is Phil, from the ancient Greek φίλος, phílos, which means "friend, person who loves". The second is Eole. In Greek mythology, Aeolus, Αἴολος, Aíolos, is the master and steward of the winds.
Make wind your friend!
History of Philéole
The history and creation of Philéole; where we got the idea to produce a mini wind turbine.
Philéole arose from the desire to use the force of the wind with bio-based and ecological means. The wind is everywhere around us, with different forces, stable or turbulent. It is present in all countries and in all types of environment; whether it is an energetically isolated environment to a hyper-connected urban environment, whether it is a marine or terrestrial environment.
In 2014, after several months of development, studies, models and prototypes, the concept of the Philéole mini wind turbine emerged. The mini wind turbine is tested in a wind tunnel at the University of Liège, in the Vrije University of Brussels and at the Von Karman institute so that Philéole can present a successful product: a bio sourced wind turbine for independent and renewable, urban energy production. and domestic, respectful of nature, biodegradable and recyclable.
Initially, Philéole focused on the production of the mini nautical wind turbine: ready to serve sailors in France and around the world, the Philéole mini nautical wind turbine attached to the top of the mast of the boat, in full wind, collects energy whatever the wind direction at sea, at anchor, in winter.
A few months later, Philéole decided to expand the possibilities of using its mini wind turbine. With its patents for Europe and the world, the Philéole mini wind turbine is now a unique product in a limitless market; ready to collect energy from the roofs of country houses and tiny houses, city buildings, or any place where the wind blows.
Every day, the Philéole team seeks to improve the performance and design of its vertical wind turbine to offer a unique and successful product.
Our main goals
The primary goal of Philéole is energy independence and ecology. By offering a unique product, Philéole wishes to take advantage of the elements of nature for independence in the production and consumption of energy. To push the ecological side further, Philéole decides to produce its mini wind turbine out of corn starch and aluminum; two elements that are either biodegradable or recyclable.
Most wind turbines available on the market pick up winds that blow at high altitude and require extensive earthworks. Today, Philéole focuses on the energies developed by light airs, turbulences and currents. Philéole wishes to use this energy and make it available to sites located outside the distribution networks.
Philéole team members
Graduated in industrial design at La Cambre. Founder of a line of high-end furniture in steel and micro-concrete and of an art gallery. Maxime works on the design of wind turbine structures, optimising the design for production and reducing the ecological impact of wind turbines. He likes to be part of sustainable solutions for a better future for all.
Graduated in mechanical engineering at UCLouvain. Passionate about aeronautics and wind behaviour. Grégoire puts his skills at the service of Philéole to dimension the mechanical parts of the wind turbines, to define the performances of the wind turbine, to check that the wind turbine works in an optimal way and respects our requirements and those of the customers.

Bumper Color Mismatch & Variation: 6 Causes
PPG helps answer body shop customers' concern as to why the factory original color doesn't always match the rest of the vehicle.
Collision repair shops occasionally run into the situation where a customer complains that the color of their bumper doesn't match the rest of the vehicle—or repair shop owners sometimes need to explain why blending may be required in order to create an invisible repair that'll match even better than the factory original.
Trying to conjure up a simple explanation that's simple and straightforward enough to satisfy a customer's concern isn't always an easy proposition. To effectively educate the customer…it's essential to convey a good grasp of the underlying causes of why OEM bumpers often don't match the rest of the vehicle. Basically, there are four common reasons for an OEM bumper mismatch.
 1. A color can vary depending on the substrate on which it is painted. For example, the evaporation rate for solvent varies over metal or plastic. A longer rate gives a flake pigment additional time to "float" and can darken the "face" of the color.
 2. The body was painted on a production line at the factory, while other parts, such as the bumper and trim, were painted with a different application method at another location.
 3. Slight adjustments can be made during application creating a lighter or darker color, or causing the metallics or mica elements to lay down differently.
 4. Light reflects differently on curved and flat surfaces causing the appearance of a color shift.
Not all bumper-to-body color mismatches can be blamed on the factory and the many variables involved in applying OEM finishes. There are occasions when the body and the bumper are painted at the same time, with the same paint, yet the colors turn out differently. The causes are related to some fundamental differences in the properties of the two substrates.
First, unless specially treated, plastics are good electrical insulators, so they can build up a static charge when wiped down during surface preparation. If the static is not discharged, it can migrate into the paint film. If the color contains a metallic, the charge can force the metallic flakes apart and change their alignment. The result is a shift in the color or darkening on the "face". The best way to tackle this problem is to make sure any static charge is removed with an anti-static wipe before applying the color.
The Second major cause lies in the thermal conductivity of the substrates. If you have sprayed solvent onto a metal panel on a warm day, you may have noticed how the panel cools down significantly as the solvent evaporates. The solvent is pulling the heat out of the panel as it evaporates and as a result, speeds up the drying process. This doesn't occur as much with plastic since it is a good insulator. As a result, the same paint may evaporate at a different rate on plastic than metal. This increase in the evaporation time gives metallic flakes longer to "float" in the film which can darken the "face" slightly. This can be compensated for using the techniques discussed in an earlier Repaint Reporter article entitled "Vanishing Act" (Vol. 65, No. 1).

Working with Dates in IBM BPM
Many of us (ibm bpm developers) are wondering on perform certain operation like comparing dates, find difference between dates and such stuff as Date not a simple type but is complex system object. But thanks to bpm suite, the implementation to do these operations are all already in place and if we give simple syntax which we use with simple types it will do the job. Here a some of the operations which I would like to illustrate in this post.
How to Comparing date1 and date2?
Comparing dates is as simple as comparing two integers.
Suppose I have two date variables tw.local.date1 and tw.local.date2.
In order to compare dates we just have to use the statements as shown below.
 tw.local.date1 > tw.local.date2 or
 tw.local.date1 < tw.local.date2
Above statement will be evaluated to true or false in the similar way when used with integers.
Above statements will consider time stamp as well. If you want to check this irrespective of time, then first set the hours, min and seconds for these dates to same values and then compare. You have to first set hours, seconds and then milliseconds.
How to Compare date to current date?
For this, first we need to get the current date and store it in a variable.
var currentDate= new TWDate();
then set currentDate and hours, seconds and milliseconds to same value and then compare like above.
To set the hours, minutes and seconds you can use script similar to the one shown below.;
How to increase the 'n' no of days to a date?
You can just get the date from and add number of days and set that value to again. This will increase the number of days automatically.Refer to below script. + X number of days)
Below scenarios will be automatically taken care when we add days.
scenario1: if = 3/12/2013, if we want to add 3 days to this date, the final date will become 6/12/2013
scenario2: if = 31/12/2013, if we want to add 3 days to this date, the final date will become 3/1/2014. We don't have to explicitly Change the month and year.
scenario2: if = 31/10/2013, if we want to add 3 days to this date, the final date will become 3/11/2013. We don't have to explicitly Change the month.
Hope you find it use full.
 1. Hi Anna
 please explain what is dojo toolit, how it is related with coach view
 2. Hi
 i can't able to set the hours and minutes and seconds value as you defined previously.
 var currentDate= new TWDate();
 Try this:
 var currentDate = new TWDate();"Current Date: " + currentDate);
 currentDate.setDate(currentDate.getDate() + parseInt(tw.env.Days)); = currentDate;
 currentDate.setMinutes(currentDate.getMinutes() + parseInt(tw.env.Mins)); = currentDate;"xxx: " +;

Conserving areas of bush and forest in cities is essential to the conservation of New Zealand's wasp species, according to research from Victoria University.
With more than 1,000 native species, wasps are an important part of New Zealand's biodiversity says Dr Rudi Schnitzler.
"Despite their fearsome reputation, very few wasps are capable of stinging humans; most tend to paralyse other insects. They play an essential role in the control of insects and are often deliberately used to control pest species such as the apple leaf roller moth in Hawke's Bay and Nelson."
Dr Schnitzler's PhD focussed on the effect diminishing amounts of native bush in urban areas has on native and introduced wasp species. He found that the greater the proximity of reserves and parks, the greater the number of wasps and the better the health and diversity of the species.
His findings are important for the conservation of urban bush and forest areas and have implications for city planners. "It's important to have many different types of plants in any section of forest or bush. The more variety in terms of species of plants, the more likely you'll find a pool of insects that nature can maintain."
He says backyard gardeners can play a part in increasing the diversity of flora and fauna of cities, especially in Wellington where sections of forest and bush are in close proximity to backyards.
Dr Schnitzler spent more than two years collecting and analysing wasps at 10 sites around the greater Wellington region.


Formula for Calculating Typing Speed
For calculating Typing Speed there are two formulas are used. One formula is based upon characters counting and the second one is directly applied on words count. Let explore the two typing test speed calculation formulas in detail.
1. Character based Formula :
A. Gross WPM
hindi typing gross word per minute formula
Here WPM = Word Per Minute
All typed entries = Total Key Strokes (or key depression)
Gross WPM is really the typing speed that you typed in one minute its getting by total key Stroke (Key depression) divided by 5 (One word = 5 character) and then divided by total minute to get word per minute speed.
If you type 200 character in 1 minute then your typing speed will be = 200 / 5 = 40 WPM
But GWPM is not your actual speed, actual speed is calculating by correct word you typed known as 'Net WPM'.
Note: delete, backspace, shift and other keys are not calculated in key stroke.
B. Net WPM Formula
Calculation of Net WPM
Net speed can be calculated by deducting errors in gross wpm. For example if you typed 40 Word in 1 Minute but you typed 3 word wrong then your Net WPM = 40 - 3 = 37 WPM
C. Accuracy Formula:
Accuracy is a percentage ratio of Gross and Net Word Speed:
Accuracy = (Net WPM / Gross WPM ) * 100 = 37 / 40 * 100 = 92.5 %
2. Words based formula :
In word base calculation each space separate two words. The word count regardless of how many characters in it. For Example the sentence "We are learning typing." As you can see here total 4 words.
A. Gross WPM : Total Words Typed / Total Time Taken (in minutes)
Example : Suppose a candidate A Typed total 350 Words in 10 Minutes:
Gross Speed in WPM : 350/10 = 35 WPM
B. Net Speed : (Total Words Typed - Word Error ) / Total Time Taken (in minutes)
Example : Suppose the A candidate typed total 350 words in 10 Minutes in which he typed 20 words wrong:
Net Speed in WPM = (350 -20) / 10 = 33 WPM
C. Accuracy : (Net WPM/ Gross WPM ) * 100
Accuracy = 33/35 * 100 = 94.28 %
Calculation of Errors
Errors are calculated by following two criteria
1. Errors thats corrected
If you correct wrong word that you typed then you will use backspace to delete that word will not calculated in WPM.
2. Errors that are incorrect
If you not correct the errors you made then you will penalize 5 character for each word error (Regardless of how many character in this wrong word). So always try to type accurate and if mistake made then correct it.

Jamming attacks have been recently studied as wireless security threats disrupting reliable RF communication in a wireless network. Recently, spread spectrum techniques have been proposed as promising countermeasures to avoid the jamming attacks. However, these solutions require a secure pre-key establishment phase before data transmission, which takes considerable time and thus provides limited functionality. In order to solve the problem, this paper proposes a novel Frequency Quorum Rendezvous (FQR) scheme. Nodes hop over random frequencies independently during the phase, supporting anti-jamming communications. By using a quorum system, nodes are guaranteed to meet, which could reduce time latency. The authors validate the proposed scheme via extensive simulations.

NOTE: In this article, Desert spoon and Dasylirionwheeleri may be used interchangeably; in fact, Dasylirionwheeleri is the botanical name for Desert spoon.
The desert spoon plant, also known as the spoon yucca plant, is a perennial shrub that is related to the Agave. A semi-succulent species, the plant grows at a moderate pace in dry, arid environments across Texas, parts of the Rio Grande Valley, the Pecos Valley in New Mexico, and parts of Arizona.
Why does my Dasylirionwheeleri roots have rot?
Root rot on your Desert spoon (Dasylirionwheeleri) can be fatal if not treated with care. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you follow our guide to keep your plant alive if the symptoms occur: Root soft and blackened.
Why does my Desert spoon have gray mold spots?
A particular fungus that frequently affects flowers and spreads quickly is known as gray mold spots. This fungus is most likely to blame if you see any brown (or gray) spots. Don't ignore these signs because doing so could cause your plant to die.
When you understand the root of the issue, the solution makes perfect sense. The majority of the time, it is caused by the Dasylirionwheeleri being overwatered. We urge you to cut off the infected roots and leaves, remove the affected sections of the plant, and then repot your plant in a fresh container with sterile potting soil.
Why does my Desert spoon have leaf spots?
We provide you with all the information you need to identify and save your plants if they display signs like leaves that suddenly change color or wilt/droop. This sort of sickness is one of the most aggravating for Desert spoon owners.
Why are my Desert spoon leaves turning yellow?
Yellowing leaves are arguably the most prevalent issue in the gardening world. Overwatering or a lack of nutrients are the 2 main causes of this issue.
Whether you think your plants are getting too much water, cut back on how often you water them, and take the following measures to see if they might be nutritionally deficient:
Here are some indicators of yellowing on the Dasylirionwheeleri brought on by its numerous flaws:
- The first symptom of a magnesium deficiency is yellow patches between leaf veins on elder leaves. The leaf's core turns yellow while the veins stay green. The edges of the leaf yellow last.
- Yellowing between leaf veins is another sign of iron shortage, but young leaves on plant tops and branch tips are initially affected.
- Sulfur deficiency starts with the newest leaves, turning them yellow throughout.
- Leaf edges turning bright yellow but inside leaf remaining green are signs of potassium insufficiency. The symptoms first appear on older leaves, and the leaf edges quickly become dark.
- A lack of nitrogen is indicated by a widespread yellowing. Older, inner leaves are the first to yellow. As the yellowing progresses, it eventually touches young leaves as well.
According to the symptoms mentioned above, you just have to act accordingly. You can reduce your watering frequency, or fix a deficiency in Potassium, or Nitrogen, for that, you just have to buy a special soil for your deficiency, a consultant in a gardening store will know perfectly well how to inform you.
Is my Desert spoon sunburned?
It is simple to determine whether your Desert spoon (your Dasylirionwheeleri) has sunburn. Your plant will change color in this instance, beginning to turn yellow or white, much like it does on us.
As we saw above, if your Desert spoon receives too much water or not enough light, the leaves may also change color.
To find out if the yellow leaves have been sunburned, look at the part of the bottom that is tinted closer to the base. The yellow leaf is probably burnt and not something else if this portion stays greener.
Why are my Desert spoon leaves turning brown?
Most of the time, leaves of a Desert spoon that turn brown is a sign that your plant has been sunburned, it has probably been exposed to too much direct sunlight. Don't panic, your plant probably won't die from this, but its growth will take a hit.
Should I leave my Dasylirionwheeleri in direct sunlight?
No! Don't leave your Dasylirionwheeleri (or Desert spoon) in the sun if it displays the symptoms mentioned above; that's why it's in such a bad situation.
The remedy, as said in the paragraph above, is simple: just move your plant's Desert spoon out of direct sunlight. Your plant should swiftly re-grow with this strategy and appropriate watering.
Why are my Dasylirionwheeleri leaves drooping or wilting?
This typically occurs when your Dasylirionwheeleri gets dehydrated. Large plants are more at risk since they naturally require more water than smaller plants.
You may quickly determine if your Dasylirionwheeleri plant needs water by under-weighing its pot; if it seems light, the soil and roots are probably fairly dry and require water.
If the soil in your plant's pot is completely dry, you will need to start by moistening it so that the roots will also benefit from the water. A common mistake is to drown the Desert spoon right after a dry period thinking that it needs a lot of water.
This is true, but the easiest way to end it is to give too much water at once. Instead, you should water the soil properly, returning to a peaceful watering rhythm.
Caring Tips for Dasylirionwheeleri
Water is essential to the survival of your plant, however, it is important to balance the rate of watering. As we explained above, overwatering could have fatal consequences for your Dasylirionwheeleri.
Touching the soil will let you know whether your plant needs water or not; if it still feels damp, it's generally best to wait a few more days.
Always keep temperatures stable
It is also a good idea to keep your Dasylirionwheeleri at a stable temperature (especially if it is kept indoors!). At GreenShack, we generally recommend staying in the 65 and 85 degrees F range. Of course, do not place your Dasylirionwheeleri near a source of hot (or cold) air such as A/C units, radiators or the like.
Keep your Desert spoon Dust-Free
This one relates to indoor plants. Just like your furniture, dust collects on the leaves of your indoor plants. The issue is that this can block the photosynthesis process from starting, which would cause the plants to gradually lose their color.
This would be a true journey into hell for your Desert spoon and would also satisfy the pests.
To remove the dust, gently rub the plant's leaves with a microfiber cloth. Dust can be removed more easily with a damp cloth, but stay away from corrosive substances like rubbing alcohol!
Keep drainage in mind
If you have a tendency to overwater, you need to keep an eye on your drainage, we advise you to opt for a pot with drainage holes if it is not already the case and a saucer.
If your pots don't already have holes in them, you can add volcanic rocks (or any other pebbles with holes) to the bottom of your pot in the meantime. This will assist in creating a channel and keep the water from pooling there for an extended period of time, protecting the roots from decay.

Five Largest American Flags in the World

Five Largest American Flags in the World
Five Largest American Flags in the World
Posted by Patriot Home & Yard on Mar 1st 2020
What are the largest American flags in the world?
Since 1777, the contemporary American flag has been prominently displayed not solely as a representation of the United States, but as a representation of the ideas and themes that the United States encompasses. In this way, the flag's stripes signify much more than the 13 original colonies, and its stars signify much more than the 50 states. Together, these stripes and stars signify freedom, honor, and fairness--the opportunity for anyone, of any background, to reach the pinnacle of life's achievements.
The following five flags showcase the hard work of Americans who understand and love Old Glory, and who have gone above and beyond the call of duty to create and display some of the physically largest American flags in the country and the world.
5. Gastonia, North Carolina's 114-Foot-Long Mega Flag
Gastonia, North Carolina, a vibrant, thriving city that's about 20 miles west of Charlotte, is home to one of the world's biggest American flags.
The remarkable feat of craftsmanship measures 114 feet wide by 64 feet tall, for a grand total of 7,410 square feet, and can be seen from over 30 miles away. Its 225-foot-tall pole weighs approximately 80,000 pounds!
Both the flag and the pole were built by the Gaston County Chapter VA, and the flag's desirable placement--a short way from Crowder's Mountain State Park, which is breathtaking in its own right--makes for easy and stress-free access.
4. Hanover, Pennsylvania's Colossal Chalk Flag
In 1998, 200 artistically gifted volunteers used chalk to create a detailed, gorgeous-looking American flag on the pavement of a Walmart store in Hanover, Pennsylvania. Overcoming the ever-present threat of inclement weather, the artists completed the project on June 28th. With an area of 17,700 square feet, the flag was (promptly) awarded the title of "Largest Chalk Pavement Art" by Guinness World Records.
Obviously, the chalk flag has disappeared at the hands of the elements, but the overhead image captured on the day of its completion--along with the spirit of those who contributed--lives on.
3. Acuity Insurance's 340-Pound Flag--The Biggest Free-Flying American Flag in the World
Acuity Insurance's Sheboygan, Wisconsin, headquarters boasts a talented team of insurance professionals and the largest free-flying American flag in the world. Additionally, the public is welcome to visit the flag as they wish, at any time of the day or evening, for the ultra-affordable cost of free.
Measuring 70 feet tall and 140 feet long, with a weight of 340 pounds and an area of 9,800 square feet, Acuity's huge American flag is supported by a pole that weighs approximately 420,000 pounds! The pole and the flag were built to withstand Wisconsin's notorious winters, and save for especially devastating winds, the flag remains at full mast, swaying honorably over Wisconsin.
2. The 1929 Flag Day Variation
In 1929, during President Herbert Hoover's administration, what was then the largest American flag--measuring 90 feet tall by 165 feet wide--was delivered to the Capitol.
Having been loaned to the government by a Detroit department store, the flag was part of a Flag Day parade and subsequent ceremony, which was attended by the vice president. Children dressed in red, white, and blue and were organized to replicate the flag's image, and remaining Civil War veterans--from both sides of the conflict--were welcomed. Lastly, 13-year-old Betsy Ross--a direct descendant of the Betsy Ross--attended the event.
This flag is no longer the largest (or even the second largest) in the world. But its significance cannot be understated, and it's easy to imagine the one-of-a-kind scene it accompanied nearly a century ago, when all manner of Americans united in Washington, D.C.
1. Ski Dempski's Superflag--The World's Largest American Flag
The Superflag is far too large to fly for any sizable period, but its ability to dazzle onlookers is without question.
Measuring 505 feet wide and 225 feet tall, the Superflag was originally crafted in 1992, by Ski Dempski, an ambitious, flag-loving California native. The flag rose to fame after being unfurled at the Hoover Dam (coinciding with the 1996 Summer Olympics and the running of the torch), during which time it was awarded the title of "Largest Flag" by Guinness World Records. At 1.36 tons, the Superflag required both machinery and hundreds of human volunteers to unfurl.
Nearly 25 years later, the Superflag is still the largest American flag in existence, and it continues to inspire.
And, what's Patriot Home & Yard's largest wooden American Flag? Well, we can't say it's as big as the top five, but my husband is working on an 6-footer right now!


Southdown's June Star Student Award recipients are an exceptional group of boys and girls.
Southdown Closes Year by Honoring its Stars
June 30, 2021
As the school year drew to a close, Southdown Primary School faculty and staff members wanted to present a final round of Star Student Awards before everyone headed for the exits and summer vacation.
The last Southdown Splash Assembly, which once again was held in a virtual format, recognized some really outstanding youngsters. Principal Scott Oshrin was excited to announce the names of the award recipients. A short assembly video was piped into classrooms and available to those who were participating in a distance learning program.
The honorees include:
Universal Pre-Kindergarten: Autumn Stancil-Moore, Brianna Uzho; Kindergarten: Tayla Quin, Anthius Vanbrakle, Ashley Hernandez Velasquez, Alexander Zavala Nunez, Jake Bradshaw, Angel Rodriguez Rodriguez, Bella Coppinger, Jay Fuentez; First Grade: Justin Banegas Galdamez, Kaileen Silva, Jadyn Adam, Harrison Weston, Addison King, Nancy Yanes Ulloa, Valerie Morales Campos, Ashley Flores Canales, Katherine Sorto Lopez, Genesis Velasquez Aguilar; Second Grade: Kimberly Gonzalez, Michael "Mikey" Spagnoletti, Amora Ingram, Andy Velasquez Arevalo, Mileidy DePaz Cruz, Eddyll Jaco Oliva, Theodore Fischer, Evangeline Pearce; Third Grade: Ashley Avalos Cedillos, Stephen Pagan, William Duenas, Luis Ponce Reyes, Hazzell Perez Argueta, Jeremy Godoy Calderon
Two Southdown students were selected from every class in the building for formal recognition at the "splash" assembly. The school considers these youngsters to be its stars of the month. Teacher Theresa Duffy was June's faculty award recipient in recognition of everything she does around the building.
Mr. Oshrin announced the names of each award winner. The virtual assembly was held during the regular school day so that students in school and at home could view the proceedings simultaneously. Click on this link to view the short film:
Every Splash Assembly has a special focus that highlights an important educational component. During last week's program teacher Pamela Schwarting discussed being safe and having fun this summer. Everything from wearing sun block to reading good books was covered during the short session.
The phrase Splash Assembly is a takeoff on the school's mascot, which is a dolphin, an aquatic mammal that's known for flipping around in the water and splashing anyone nearby. Think 1960's television show Flipper.

Meet nail enamel with a dramatically short drying time!
The 21st IFSCC Congress 2000, Berlin
Congress Award (Poster Award)
Super-Rapid Drying "Dip-in-Water" Nail Enamel
Change in thinking led to innovative nail enamel that dries in just 45 seconds by immersion in water!
Have you experienced the stress of redoing nail enamel on your fingers or toes because you accidentally hit or touched something while it was drying? Women have various demands for nail enamels, including long-lasting, lustrous finish, color and the look on nails—but quick to dry beats them all. This award-winning technology incorporates a novel idea for quick drying. The change in thinking resulted in a major contribution to this technology. Generally, nail enamels are made of a coating material to solidify, solvent to dissolve the coating material, and a colorant for color as main components. When applied on the nail, the solvent vaporizes and causes the coating material to form a membrane and solidify, which we call "drying".
However, this award-wining technology changed the perspective from evaporating the solvent to its quick removal. We developed a method of removing the solvent by immersing it in water and allowing the solvent to dissolve instantly. This technology shortened the drying time to 45 seconds.
What's the technology?
It took a year to generate the idea. Further difficulties at the development stage! Discovery of instantly drying substances with a shift from vaporizing to removing with water!
The key point in this award-winning technique was to remove the solvent with water. Therefore, the first difficulty was in discovering solvents to dissolve the water-insoluble coating material. There were no compatible substances previously used in cosmetics; we spent a year discovering the appropriate substances from ingredients in every area possible. And, there were further difficulties. The solvents we managed to discover were soluble in water, but the coating material had poor stability after the instant removal of solvent compared to its gradual vaporization, resulting in whitening and exfoliation. This was the start of many days of investigation. In addition to safety, consideration was required for the environment as the product is immersed in water. Furthermore, since it becomes unusable in places without water, we needed a product that would vaporize and dry over the same time as traditional nail enamels.
As a result of resolving these problems, we finally developed nail enamel that dries when immersed in water. This technology was applied to Shiseido S Aqua Dry Nail in November 2000 and has been used in many products such as Kesho Wakusei. In addition, the findings on coating and solvents cultivated in this research have been used in the development of other products including lipstick and mascara.


most deadly violent haunting in the US
Bell Witch Haunting Ghost Caught on Video Tape
The Bell Witch haunting is one of the first, real, documented ghost hauntings in America, join us as get the Bell Witch Ghost Caught on Tape. Is it possible to communicate to the Bell Witch Ghost through ghost box, evp, and ouija? Join us tonight as attempt get evidence of the Bell Witch Haunting Ghost, caught on tape.
The paranormal haunting of the Bell Witch started with John Bell Sr., who made his living as a farmer, resided with his family in Adams, Tennessee in the early 1800s. In 1817, his family came under attack by a witch, who was believed to be a lady called Kate Batts. Various accounts written afterward, tell stories similar to other poltergeist legends. It began with noises in the walls and grew to include unusual sounds; people being slapped and pinched, objects being thrown, and animals being spooked without visible cause.
In the 1894 book An Authenticated History of the Bell Witch, author Martin Van Buren Ingram claims that the poltergeist's name was Kate, and that she frequently cursed the Bell family out loud. The activity centered on the Bells' youngest daughter, Betsy, and worsened after she became engaged to one Joshua Gardner.
Several accounts report that during his military career, Andrew Jackson was intrigued with the story and was frightened away after traveling to investigate. Other stories relate that the family was haunted by scratching noises outside their door after Bell found a half-dog, half-rabbit creature. Some stories end up with Bell being poisoned by the witch. Accounts vary about the witch being someone who had been cheated by Bell or a male slave whom Bell had killed.

Castle Arch (1.0 miles – unmarked)
Castle Arch
SUMMARY: An average hike to a large unmarked arch. This description involves a stream crossing without a bridge (1 crossing in each direction.) There are better arches in the gorge, but Castle Arch is probably one of the larger arches after Natural Bridge and Sky Bridge, it is definitely one of the larger 10 arches in Red River gorge. My primary disappointment is Castle Arches' close proximity to nearby roads. It is essential to bring a compass and a good map and know how to use them.
RATING: Moderate Hike (about 1.0 miles) The distance is short on this hike, but the entire trail is unmarked. This hike uses unmarked trails and some people have trouble navigating the hike.
Castle Arch
 4. Take the 1st right onto KY-715 N. (5.4 miles)
 5. Park in unmarked parking area on right side (approximately 0.5 miles after Sky Bridge Recreation Area road,) and immediately after another parking area on the left side.
 1. From the pull off where you parked follow the unmarked trail on the same side of the road as it descends to the river. It begins on the right side of the parking area as you are looking at the river (0.1 miles)
 2. Find a place to cross the river ASAP and cross. There is no bridge and good water shoes make the crossing easier.
 3. After crossing the river immediately begin heading up the hill in a line perpendicular to the river. There are many unmarked trails, and following one of them will make the journey easier. (0.3 miles)
 4. At the top of the hill your goal is to come out below a rocky ridge line which means you are most likely below the ridge with Castle Arch. To get to Castle Arch, go around the ridge line to your left. (0.1 miles) There are atleast 2 ways around the ridge to your left. Eventually you will be on the back side of the arch in a little area below the arch and must walk up the last 100 feet or so to get underneath of the arch. Once underneath of Castle Arch you can pass through the arch and around to your right where you can scramble up on top of Castle Arch for better views.
 5. Return to parking area on the unmarked trails (0.5 miles)

This study explored the gendered nature of STEM higher education institution through a feminist critical discourse analysis of STEM course syllabi from a Midwest research university. I explored STEM syllabi to understand how linguistic features such as stance and interdiscursivity are used in the syllabus and how language and discourses used in the syllabus replicate the masculine nature of STEM education. Findings suggest that the discourses identified in the syllabi reinforce traditional STEM academic roles, and that power and gender in the STEM syllabi are revealed through exploration of the themes of knowledge, learning, and the teaching and learning environment created by the language used in the syllabus. These findings inform and extend understanding of the STEM syllabus and the STEM higher education institution and lead to recommendations about how to make the STEM syllabus more inclusive for women.

Two Methods:Removing gripsApplying grips
On a bicycle, sometimes it's very hard to get your new rubber handlebar grips on. This will help you put it on easily and not have it slip off later.
Method 1 of 2: Removing grips
 1. 1
 Sometimes careful cutting with a razor blade is necessary. Try not to scratch your chrome. If you want to save the grips without cutting, spray WD-40 between grip and handlebar. It WILL penetrate all the way down. Twist to spread WD-40 inside, and pull off. Stick a screwdriver between the bar and the grip if you cannot get under the grip well.
 2. 2
 Clean bar with soap/water to remove WD-40. Dry bar thoroughly! Don't leave handlebars soapy or wet.
 3. 3
 You can also use compressed air from a compressor or can to remove a grip. Place a needle/nozzle between the grip and the handlebar, and the air will allow the grip to slide off the bar. Since you won't be placing a lubricant on the bar, you will not need to clean it off. Use the proper precautions whenever you use compressed air tools or products to prevent explosions or other injuries.
Method 2 of 2: Applying grips
 1. 1
 Apply a squirt of hairspray or hand sanitizer inside the grip.
 2. 2
 3. 3
 - Ordinary spit will also work, if you don't have hairspray or sanitizer.

Pig Trap Interlocking
Safety interlocks are an essential feature in the design of pig traps. SFC interlocks can be specified to ensure the minimum safety arrangement of interlocking the vessel vent valve with the pig trap closure. This arrangement ensures the vessel vent valve is open before any attempt can be made to open the closure. With interlocks fitted to both the vent valve and pig trap closure, a key is released when the vent valve is opened. Removing the key from the vent valve locks the valve in the open position. This key is coded in common with the closure lock and only by opening and locking the vent valve, can the operator use the correct key to proceed to unlock and open the closure.

Ex Ante Evaluation
Before the programme there was…
Before programmes are designed, before money is provided to beneficiaries, before EU Rural Development begins to have impacts on the lives of EU citizens, what comes before all of this?
The ex ante evaluation!
The ex ante evaluation is the inventory check and reflection on past experiences before setting out on your new journey. While just winging it may work for a short road trip, careful preparation must be ensured for climbing a large mountain. EU rural development programmes, like climbing a mountain require a team of individuals and stakeholders working together. Careful preparation and planning so that all members involved can achieve their greatest impact and make it to the top of the mountain is essential.
The ex ante evaluation is the roadmap to the top of the mountain through reflecting on past experiences, checking inventories and trying to manage any potential future risks the programme might encounter along the way.
The role of the ex ante evaluation
Programming of the CAP Strategic Plans is a complex exercise, that requires one to consider and to link various aspects. To improve the quality of the design of the CAP Strategic Plan it is essential to carry out the ex ante evaluation. The ex ante evaluation should be carried out by functionally independent experts in close cooperation with the authority responsible for the drafting of the CAP Strategic Plan. The CAP Strategic Plan should serve to contribute to better targeted support through the CAP and to support a common learning process related to monitoring and evaluation. At the same time, the ex ante evaluation is a key element of the performance framework, as it establishes the base for effective monitoring and evaluation during the implementation of the CAP Strategic Plan in 2021-2027.
The ex ante evaluation is strongly linked to the programming of the CAP Strategic Plan and the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA). This interlinkage can be organised in various possible ways (e.g. by providing a joint ex ante and SEA feedback in an iterative exchange with the programming authority or by providing input to draft CAP Strategic Plan documents at defined stages). One of the lessons learned from previous experiences of carrying out the ex ante evaluation was to organise it in an ongoing process between evaluators and Managing Authorities. This type of iterative process helps evaluators to be well aware that several updates of the SWOT, intervention strategy and other CAP Strategic Plan elements may become available or are even triggered through the ex ante evaluation and can be considered as part of the ongoing ex ante appraisal. In each case, it is essential that the ex ante evaluation provide an independent and informed view into the preparation of the CAP Strategic Plan.
The ex ante evaluation as an interactive and participatory process
Experience has shown that a participatory ex ante evaluation process increases the ownership and the acceptance of the results by relevant stakeholders and helps to improve evaluation capacities. This can be realised through the integration of expertise and views of all relevant stakeholders, ensuring interaction and mutual learning at all stages of the ex ante evaluation and the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA).
Understanding who is doing what during the process of the ex ante and SEA
The roles and responsibilities of stakeholders in the ex ante evaluation and SEA process should be clearly defined and discussed. All parties should be aware of their roles and responsibilities from the beginning of the process.
Figure 1: Stakeholder checklist - roles and responsibilities
It is essential to plan the involvement of stakeholders, including the phase/stage at which their involvement is required, the nature of their involvement (engagement), how they get involved (engagement methods) and the frequency of their contribution(s).
A robust ex ante evaluation is the foundation of the successful design and implementation of the CAP Strategic Plan and key to reaching the top of the mountain!

Definition of Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty
Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty: A type of operation designed to tighten up flabby tissues and enlarge the upper air passages. The operation involves reshaping the uvula (uvulo-), soft palate (-palato-) and throat (-pharyngo-).
The uvula is a small piece of soft tissue that can be seen dangling down from the soft palate over the back of the tongue. The uvula is described variously shaped like a U, a tear or a grape. (Its name comes from the Latin word for "grape," uva.) The uvula has its own little muscle, the musculus uvuae, to help it stiffen and change shape, so it helps fill in the space at the back of the throat. It helps keep food from going down the wrong way down the breathing passage when one swallows. Singers credit the uvula with letting them produce a vibrato, a wavy up-and-down sound.
The uvula is one of the soft-tissue structures commonly blamed for snoring and for sleep apnea (a break in breathing during sleep). Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty is a treatment for these conditions.Source: MedTerms™ Medical Dictionary

The Second Secret of Fatima
The Second Secret of Fatima is the first of 2 prophesies of catastrophic world events revealed to three shepherd children in Fatima, Portugal in 1917. The Second Secret promised the end of the First World War, and portended a second worse war, and the spread of Communism from Russia.
The Second Secret of Fatima also contained a Peace Plan, a series of specific instructions given by the Virgin Mary to the Children of Fatima, of how people could earn a period of peace for the world by preventing the war and the spread of the Communist dogma.

I was recently reading through some posts on this site. A question struck me -
Why does an object attached to the end of a string which is further attached to an accelerating car behave differently than it would if the object is attached with a rod welded to the roof?
P.S.- Apparently there is a misunderstanding with my question. What I mean by 'differently' is that the object when attached through a string tries to remain in rest, but then accelerates with the car (inertia), causing the string to make an angle $\theta$ with the vertical, whereas it is not the case when the object is attached through a rod, i.e., the rod always make $0^\circ$ with the vertical.
enter image description here
Edit - I have added a picture, if that helps...
 - $\begingroup$ Can you clarify what do you mean by 'behave differently'? $\endgroup$ – Cluse Mar 7 at 17:34
 - $\begingroup$ _USER_ Is it clear now? $\endgroup$ – user290607 Mar 7 at 17:49
 - $\begingroup$ Not to me. I think you're relying on people knowing the class of problem you're talking about, but I don't, so I'll drop it. In general, especially in this type of question with multiple scenarios of things attached together involving angles, etc, a picture really helps. $\endgroup$ – tom10 Mar 7 at 19:07

 $\begingroup$ Why do you say the rod will always remain vertical? $\endgroup$ – Sandejo Mar 7 at 19:13
 - $\begingroup$ Is the rod able to rotate? Or is it a rod connected to the bus in an unmovable fashion? $\endgroup$ – Deschele Schilder Mar 8 at 9:04
Alright then. Imagine you find yourself on a bus. There is a string hanging from the ceiling. Next to the string, a rod is welded to the ceiling. I think you agree that the string is movable in all directions while the rod is not (unless you attach the rod to a flexible joint).
Now attach a mass to the end of the string and one to the end of the rod. Can you see it? The bus starts to accelerate. The passengers feel themselves pushed to the seat they are in. Just so, both masses feel a force directed to the rear of the bus. The mass on the string is free to move (within the confine the string imposes) and the string will make an angle with the vertical direction. This angle depends on the value of the mass attached. The higher the mass, the smaller the angle (the force of gravity, which pulls the mass down gets bigger). The mass on the rod will not be able to move because the rod is welded to the ceiling. Only if the rod can move in the way the string can move, both the string and the rod will make an angle with the vertical upon acceleration.
Do you get me?
 - 1
 $\begingroup$ No. That still does not answer my question. Why does not the rod bend? $\endgroup$ – user290607 Mar 8 at 13:04
 - 2
 $\begingroup$ Ah. now its clear. The röd bends a little. If it would bend visibly it wouldnt be a rod. $\endgroup$ – Deschele Schilder Mar 8 at 16:10
 - 1
 $\begingroup$ I have accepted your solution. Since the rod bends a little, the horizontal component of the force on the bus is the only force on the object, which is the same as compared to the string. Where is the difference (there is a subtle difference, I think). Please elaborate. $\endgroup$ – user290607 Mar 8 at 17:11
 - $\begingroup$ _USER_ What do you mean by the force on the bus? $\endgroup$ – Deschele Schilder Mar 8 at 17:14
 - $\begingroup$ The force which causes the bus to accelerate. $\endgroup$ – user290607 Mar 8 at 17:15
I understand I have not understood the question right when I answered the following:
Because of inertia. If no forces are acting on an object, the objects velocity does not change. Using a string the car accelerates the object to a certain velocity and when slowing down the object will continue to move towards the car as no forces are acting on it (until it hits the car where the normal force of the mass of the car slows it down at once). Using a rod the object again accelerates with the car as it is tied to it. But when the car slows down, the normal force of the mass of the car immediately acts on the object thrue the rod, slowing down the object at the same time as the car slows down.
Second Try:
If I understood correctly what is meant here, the reason for the object making an angle to the "vertical" is simply inertia and the fact that it the string has a finite length: The object (attached outside of the car on the ceiling or inside on the ground) wants to stay at rest but is accelerated. The only way to stay as much at rest as possible is to move down (in addition to moving to the opposite side of the acceleration relative to the car) and thus making that angle.
If you meant horizontal instead of "vertical" (the object being attached to the back of the car outside) then the reason is chaos of aerodynamics. Aerodynamics predicts that the object moves in every direction, despite being dragged back by inertia and thus making that angle. But I'm not that familiar with aerodynamics and am therefor not able to give you more details. What I do understand is that when using a fixed rod welded to the car, the object has no degree of freedom whatsoever. Its position is completely determined by the car. A string gives the object all three degrees of freedom $(r,\theta,\varphi)$, inspite of some boundaries: $r\le L$ (length of string), $\varphi\in [0,\pi]$ (object can't go into the car), $\theta\in [0,\pi]$ (boundaries for $\theta$ are normal). Having these degrees of freedom the chaotic consequences of aerodynamics act on the object.
 - $\begingroup$ I think that the object hangs on a string or rod instead of lying on the ground (of the bus or behind it). $\endgroup$ – Deschele Schilder Mar 8 at 9:13
 - $\begingroup$ _USER_ I have extended my answer. $\endgroup$ – Roger Mar 8 at 11:37
 - $\begingroup$ Do you envision the object in or outside the car? I'm not sure if I understand the connection between the deviation from the vertical and chaos of aerodynamics. If I hang (inside a bus) a mass on a string, then on acceleration of the bus the object the string will deviate from hanging vertical (which a rod melted to the ceiling can't do). $\endgroup$ – Deschele Schilder Mar 8 at 11:45
 - $\begingroup$ _USER_ I have mistaken vertical with horizontal. The answer is updated now. $\endgroup$ – Roger Mar 8 at 11:51
 - $\begingroup$ _USER_ I don't think my question has anything to do with aerodynamics. You can think of the bus in vacuum if you wish. $\endgroup$ – user290607 Mar 8 at 12:34

This is Theorem of Three Perpendiculars, How to prove variation of it for N dimensional case (or to prove that it is false)?
Let $\mathbb{R}^N$ is N dimensional Euclidean space and $h_1, h_2$ are two intersecting hyperplanes (each has dimension N-1), $\mathbb{S}$ is intersection of hyperplanes $h_1$ and $h_2$. Let $x_1$ is a point at $h_1$, $x_2$ is an orthogonal projection of $x_1$ to the second hyperplane $h_2$, $x_1^p$ is an orthogonal projection of point $x_1$ to $\mathbb{S}$, $x_2^p$ is orthogonal projection of $x_2$ to $\mathbb{S}$.
How to prove that $x_1^p$ is equal $x_2^p$?
share|cite|improve this question
1 Answer 1
Okay, I write solution I have just found.
Hyperplane $h_1$ is $\{x| a_1^Tx +b_1 = 0\}$, for some vector $a_1$ and number $b_1$. Similar $h_2 = \{x| a_1^Tx + b_2 = 0\}$. Intersection set is defined as $\mathbb{S} = \{x|a_1^Tx +b_1 = 0, and\ a_1^Tx + b_2 = 0\}$.
Projection point $x_1^p$ is a solution of next optimization problem: $x_1^p = \arg\max ||x-x_1||^2,\ with\ respect\ to\ x\in\mathbb{S}$.
Similarly, $x_2^p = \arg\max ||x-x_2||^2,\ with\ respect\ to\ x\in\mathbb{S}$.
Because $x_2$ is a projection of $x_1$ in $h_2$, we have $x_2-x_1 = \alpha a_2$, where $\alpha$ is some scalar.
Next step is $||x - x_2||^2 = ||x - x_1 - \alpha a_2|| ^2 = ||x - x_1|| - 2((x - x_1)\cdot \alpha a_2) + ||\alpha a_2||^2 = ||x-x_1|| ^2 + const$, where we used that $x^Ta_2 = b_2$ because of the constraint set.
So, essentially optimization problems are the same, which means that points $x_1^p$ and $x_2^p$ coincide.
Do you like the proof?

A 100 Percent Renewable Chicago
An Economic Impact Report Assessing Renewable Energy in the City of Chicago
Zarek Drozda, Ekin Dursun, Vanessa Ma, Devin McNulty
This report assesses the potential impacts of a 100% renewable energy transition for the City of Chicago. We examine Chicago's current electrical demand and supply, project Chicago's electricity demand through 2035, and then test scenarios for a full transition to renewable electricity. We then model aggregate job creation, economic output, and emissions reduction potential. In addition to explaining the methodology behind "A 100% Renewable Chicago: By the Numbers" infographic, this paper provides background and context on the mechanisms through which Chicago sources energy to serve as a resource for local advocates, community stakeholders, and policymakers.


It's easy to see what's happening in the dining room but it's hard to see what's going on in the kitchen. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in every 6 Americans gets sick from food contamination each year. Consumers usually lack the information to knowledgeably choose where to eat based on the risk of food contamination.
Boston restaurants are required by law to be inspected on an annual basis. However, food inspection data is typically available in rare and elusive online datasets. They are not like Yelp or Carfax; they are tedious.
Food Sherpa is a data visualization that seamlessly displays inspection results and grades for all Boston restaurants. These grades are presented in a report card format with an A through F scale. The quantity and severity of a restaurant's five-year inspection history are used to assign the grades. This visualization can be used by any Boston restaurant-goer, to assist in making more informed decisions about where to eat out. Food Sherpa fills an integral gap in the awareness of restaurant consumers.

Set permissions for a node to be written to the database.
When a node is saved, a module implementing node access will be asked if it is interested in the access permissions to a node. If it is interested, it must respond with an array of array of permissions for that node.
Each item in the array should contain:
'realm' This should only be realms for which the module has returned grant IDs in hook_node_grants. 'gid' This is a 'grant ID', which can have an arbitrary meaning per realm. 'grant_view' If set to TRUE a user with the gid in the realm can view this node. 'grant_edit' If set to TRUE a user with the gid in the realm can edit this node. 'grant_delete' If set to TRUE a user with the gid in the realm can delete this node. 'priority' If multiple modules seek to set permissions on a node, the realms that have the highest priority will win out, and realms with a lower priority will not be written. If there is any doubt, it is best to leave this 0.

Working Paper No. 90.Ladda ner
This study empirically examines the relationship between knowledge capital and performance heterogeneity at the firm level. The model is based on a knowledge production function comprising of four interdependent equations linking innovativeness to innovation input, innovation output and productivity. The empirical part is based on Korean firm level innovation data. The model is estimated using advanced econometric methods. We investigate whether innovation is a significant and contributing determinant of performance heterogeneity among firms. In examining the relationship between innovation and productivity we correct for selectivity and simultaneity biases. The results show that there is a two-way causal relationship between knowledge capital and labor productivity. Firm-specific effects positively contribute to innovation output but they are negatively related to productivity. Industry heterogeneity does not affect innovation output or productivity.

Moonalice poster by Alexandra Fischer
According to Moonalice legend, the tribe in Kentucky was especially talented. Kentucky nomads played incredible music. And the local hippies grew fantastic hemp. Unfortunately, they were all colorblind. That's why they used the same name for their hemp that they used for their music: Bluegrass. Smoke it if you've got it!
According to Moonalice legend, there is far more to the history of Louisville than you read in books. History books say that the first Europeans settled on Corn Island. What they don't say is that the Europeans actually bought Corn Island from the Moonalice tribe for $24 and a bag of microwave popcorn. Of course, it had a different name then. The tribe had named the island after their favorite crop — Hemp — but practiced crop rotation. It just happened that the fields were full of corn when the Europeans arrived. As a result, the Europeans missed out on the opportunity to invent hemp liquor. Fortunately, they went on to discover bourbon, instead. The rest, as they say, is legend.

How to copy one table data into another table using Mysql Query?
By Hardik Savani January 31, 2016 Category : PHP MySql
If you are working on php or any php framwork and you want to copy one table into other table by using sql query, so you could do it using simple SELECT and INSERT statement. just you need to think how you can use.
In Following example you can see how to fetch data from "post" table and how to insert into "post_copy" table, so basically you have to select field of one that you want to copy and second one give name of table with proper field that you want insert. But don't forgot to give a name of field otherwise it generate error.
INSERT INTO 'post_copy' (name,slug,status)
SELECT name,slug,'1' FROM 'post'

Journal of Guidance, Control, and Dynamics
A generalized approach to the allocation of redundant thrust vector slew commands for multi-actuated launch vehicles is presented, where deflection constraints are expressed as omniaxial or elliptical deflection limits in gimbal axes. More importantly than in the aircraft control allocation problem, linear allocators (pseudoinverses) are preferred for large booster applications to facilitate accurate prediction of the control-structure interaction resulting from thrust vectoring effects. However, strictly linear transformations for the allocation of redundant controls cannot, in general, access all of the attainable moments for which there is a set of control effector positions thatsatisfles the constraints. In this paper, the control allocation efficiency ora certain class of linear allocators subject to multiple quadratic constraints is analyzed, and a novel single-pass control allocation scheme is proposed that augments the pseudolnverse near the boundary of the attainable set. The controls are determined over a substantial volume of lhe attainable set using only a linear transformation; as such, the algorithm maintains compatibility with frequencydomain approaches to the analysis of the vehicle closed-loop elastic stability. Numerical results using a model of a winged reusable booster system illustrate the proposed technique's ability to access a larger Fraction of the attainable set than a pseudoinverse alone.
