Revision Content
Most information from the Firefox history and bookmarks system ("Places") comes from executing queries on the history system (nsINavHistory.executeQuery/executeQueries). This will give you a nsINavHistoryResult object which will contain a tree structure of the results. The definitions of these structures is in {{template.Source("browser/components/places/public/nsINavHistoryService.idl")}}
Executing a query
There are two parts of a query: a list of one or more nsINavHistoryQuery objects, and an nsINavHistoryQueryOptions object. You first need to fill out these structures with the parameters you want. Use nsINavHistoryService.getNewQuery and nsINavHistoryService.getNewQueryOptions to retrieve empty objects. These objects typically have empty values for each possible field, so using them in their initial state will give you all of history in a flat list:
var historyService = Components.classes["_USER_-history-service;1"]
// get all history sorded by ascending visit date
var options = historyService.getNewQueryOptions();
options.sortingMode = options.SORT_BY_DATE_ASCENDING;
// no query parameters will return everything
var query = historyService.getNewQuery();
var result = historyService.executeQuery(query, options)
Result types
The query options structure nsINavHistoryQueryOptions has an attribute resultType for the type of the results that you want. It is important to understand the differences between these:
 - RESULTS_AS_URI: This is the default, and means that you get one result node of type RESULT_TYPE_URI for each URI that matches the query. The visit date for each node will be the last visit date for that URL. You will definitely want this when showing bookmark folders.
 - RESULTS_AS_VISIT: This means that you want one entry for each time a page was visited matching the given query. Therefore, you may get duplicate entries for URLs, each with a different date. The nodes will be of type RESULT_TYPE_VISIT which will give you access to a session ID for each visit. This session ID is the same for all pages that were reached by clicking links. A new session starts when the user types a new URL or follows a bookmark. It is used to compute the dividing lines in the places history view.
 - RESULTS_AS_FULL_VISIT: This is the same as visits but the results will be of type RESULT_TYPE_FULL_VISIT and will have additional information about the visit, such as the referring visit, and how the transition happened (typed, redirect, link, etc). This information is typically not needed and causes the result nodes (of which there may be many) to be larger, which is why it is a separate option.
The named constants are properties of nsINavHistoryQueryOptions, for example Components.interfaces.nsINavHistoryQueryOptions.RESULTS_AS_VISIT.
Query parameters
Note: The query object interface is subject to change. In its current form it is not very expressive. Implementing a better interface is {{template.Bug(317830)}}.
You can pass one or more nsINavHistoryQuery objects to nsINavHistoryService.executeQuery/executeQueries. Within one query object, all parameters are ANDed together. The conditions for different query objects are then ORed together. This allows for a simpler implementation and interface than a full logical operation with nested clauses while still being expressive.
Example of querying for any pages I've visited that contain the word "firefox" in the title/URL or that I've visited today from mozilla.org.
// first query object searches for "firefox" in title/URL
var query1 = historyService.getNewQuery();
query1.searchTerms = "firefox";
// second query object searches for visited in past 24 hours AND from mozilla.org
var query2 = historyService.getNewQuery();
query2.beginTimeReference = query2.TIME_RELATIVE_NOW;
query2.beginTime = -24 * 60 * 60 * _PHONE_; // 24 hours ago in microseconds
query2.endTimeReference = query2.TIME_RELATIVE_NOW;
query2.endTime = 0; // now
query2.domain = "mozilla.org";
var result = historyService.executeQueries([query1, query2], 2, options);
Note: Keyword searching doesn't work correctly across OR queries. The current behavior does the normal query and then selects keywords from the first query and filters all the results. (In other words, the keywords from the first query are ANDed with all queries.) Keywords from subsequent query objects are ignored. This is {{template.Bug(320332)}}.
Bookmark queries
The contents of bookmark folders can be retrieved by setting the "folders" member in the query object. This item is an array of folder IDs from the bookmark service. Typically, you will only have one folder ID in this list, which will given you the contents of that folder. You can set multiple folders and the result will be the intersection of all the folders.
Generally, you want to set the grouping mode in the options to GROUP_BY_FOLDER for bookmarks queries. This will result in a hierarchical structure containing the bookmark folder hierarchy rooted at where you requested.
Note: This doesn't actually have any effect in the current implementation. The query system always assumes GROUP_BY_FOLDER for bookmarks queries. See {{template.Bug(324579)}}.
For sorting, you will generally want to use SORT_BY_NONE (the default) since this will return items in their "natural" order as specified by the user in the bookmarks manager. Other sortings will work, however.
For bookmark queries you will generally want no query parameters to retrieve all items from the requested folder(s). When you specify exactly one folder, GROUP_BY_FOLDER, and no query parameters, the system will be more efficient querying and keeping the results up-to-date since this maps to exactly one bookmark folder.
var bookmarkSvc = Components.classes["_USER_-bookmarks-service;1"]
// |options| is an object created in the previous section
options.setFolders([bookmarkService.toolbarRoot], 1);
options.setGroupingMode([options.GROUP_BY_FOLDER], 1);
var result = historyService.executeQuery(query, options);
Serializing queries
Normally, query and options objects are represented in terms of objects. However, it is possible to serialize these objects using queriesToQueryString, and deserialize them using queryStringToQueries. The result will be a string starting with "place:" which you can store or bookmark. When a "place:" URI is bookmarked, it will expand to the results of the query when it is opened by the user.
You should never manually construct "place:" URI strings. The format is subject to change. If you need one, create the proper objects and call the history service to serialize it for you.
Be careful, queryStringToQueries may not return any query objects if the string was empty. Your code should handle this case. There will always be an options structure returned. If no options were specified, it will have the default values. If there were no query parameters specified but the input string was not empty (there were options) you may get one query object returned, containing the default query values.
Example of serializing and deserializing two queries and an options object:
var queryString = historyService.queriesToQueryStrings([query1, query2], 2, options);
var queriesRef = { };
var queryCountRef = { };
var optionsRef = { };
historyService.queryStringToQueries(queryString, queriesRef, queryCountRef, optionsRef);
// now use queriesRef.value, optionsRef.value
Using the results
Note: Be careful when accessing nodes and do not keep references to them around. Notifications sent to the result from the history and bookmarks system, as well as commands executed by the programmer such as sorting may cause the structure to change and nodes may be inserted, removed, or replaced.
The nsINavHistoryResult object returned by executeQuery/executeQueries contains the list of matches to the given history or bookmarks query. These results are contained in a tree structure made up of nodes. A node's type can be retrieved using its type attribute. This type tells you what interface you can QueryInterface the node to in order to get at more detailed information:
 - nsINavHistoryResultNode: Base class for all nodes. Contains URI, title, and other general info.
 - nsINavHistoryVisitResultNode: Derived from nsINavHistoryResultNode, contains session information.
 - nsINavHistoryFullVisitResultNode: Derived from nsINavHistoryVisitResultNode, contains information about how the user navigated to this page. Note: currently unimplemented, see {{template.Bug(320831)}}.
 - nsINavHistoryContainerResultNode: General container node giving access to its children. Derived from nsINavHistoryResultNode.
 - nsINavHistoryQueryResultNode: A type of container representing a query of the history system. It allows you to get the query options and parameters.
 - nsINavHistoryFolderResultNode: Derived from nsINavHistoryQueryResultNode, this represents a special type of query mapping to the exact contents of one bookmarks folder. It gives easy access to its folder ID, and also updates itself more efficiently than a general query.
Example of detecting the type of a node
var Ci =


cal H^n$ and $\mathcal H^{n+1}$. The $n$-ball has positive $\mathcal H^n$-volume, while its $\mathcal H^{n+1}$-volume vanishes, since there is really no $(n+1)$-dimensional interior in an $n$-ball. To compare the volumes $\mathcal H^{n}(B^n)$ and $\mathcal H^{n+1}(B^{n+1})$ under a common measure, we make use of $\mathcal H^{n}(A)=\mathcal H^{n+1}(A\times[0,1])$. – Christoph Aug 22 '13 at 11:08
Could you explain why are you working with a cylinder of height two instead of height one? Shouldn't we compare $B^{n+1}$ with $B^n \times [\textrm{something with length one}]$? Otherwise we do double the volume. Everything else makes sense to me. I just don't understand "but it is a matter of radius as already discussed". – Fixed Point Aug 23 '13 at 8:53
_USER_ Just because "height" (diameter) of the unit-ball is $2$. If our default ball has radius $1/2$, then I would work with some unit interval. The difference between those cases is a factor proportional to the radius and dependence radius ~ volume was discussed in the first paragraph. – savick01 Aug 23 '13 at 9:36

Metadata Exchange Endpoint
Metadata Exchange Endpoint
Exposing the metadata using HTTP-GET has a disadvantage, such that there is no guarantee that other platforms you interact will support it. There is other way of exposing the using special endpoint is called as Metadata Exchange Endpoint. You can have as many metadata exchange endpoints as you want.
It is basically Uri to identify the metadata. You can specify as address in the endpoint but append with "mex" keyword. For example "http://localhost:9090/MyCalulatorService/mex"
There are four types of bindings supported for metadata exchange. They are mexHttpBinding, mexHttpsBinding, mexNamedPipesBinding, mexTcpBinding.
IMetadataExchange is the contract used for MEX endpoint. WCF service host automatically provides the implementation for this IMetadataExcahnge while hosting the service.
You can create the Metadata Exchange Endpoint either Administrative (configuration file) or programmatically.
Administrative (Configuration file):
In the configuration file of the hosting application, you can add metadata exchange endpoint as shown below.

 binding="wsHttpBinding" contract="IMyService">

Programming Model:
In the following code I have mention about creating the Metadata Exchange Endpoint through coding. Steps to create the metadata endpoint are
 - Create the ServiceMetadataBehavior object and add to Service host description.
 - ServiceMetadataBehavior smb = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();
 - Create the metadata binding object using MetadataExchangeBinding
 - Binding mexBinding = MetadataExchangeBindings.CreateMexHttpBinding ();
 - 3. Add the endpoint to the service host with address, binding and contract.
 - host.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IMetadataExchange), mexBinding, "mex");
Complete code for hosting the service with metadata exchange endpoint is shown below.
//Create a URI to serve as the base address
 Uri httpUrl = new Uri("http://localhost:8090/MyService/SimpleCalculator");
 //Create ServiceHost
 ServiceHost host = new
 ServiceHost(typeof(MyCalculatorService.SimpleCalculator), httpUrl);
 //Add a service endpoint
 (typeof(MyCalculatorService.ISimpleCalculator), new WSHttpBinding(), "");
 //Enable metadata exchange
 ServiceMetadataBehavior smb = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();
 Binding mexBinding = MetadataExchangeBindings.CreateMexHttpBinding ();
 //Adding metadata exchange endpoint
 //Start the Service
 Console.WriteLine("Service is host at " + DateTime.Now.ToString());
 Console.WriteLine("Host is running... Press key to stop");

Wildlife biologist
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
A wildlife biologist is someone who studies and/or manages wild animals and their habitats. Wildlife biology as an academic subject or profession is usually narrowly defined as applying to terrestrial vertebrates as the subject of study, however, a more general definition will often include the study and management of fish and other non-vertebrate wildlife. The similar term wildlife ecologist is often also used in reference to wildlife studies, and are often interchangeable in practice. Wildlife biologists may be distinguished from wildlife ecologists in their focus on the physiology, abundance, demographics, populations, and other management-oriented questions for a particular species (often but not always a "game" or sport-hunted species), whereas wildlife ecologists may use similar metrics, but may study communities of species and their interactions and relationships with biotic and abiotic factors in their environments for conservation purposes.

Tipster Dean Culver has created a dynamic block in AutoCAD for a labeled bracket.
"The bracket is a dynamic block that is inserted, then rotated to the right, left, top, or bottom using AutoCAD's normal Rotate command. Using the rotation action (blue dot) placed within the text, you can rotate the text to the desired orientation.
"The bracket can be stretched by using the blue arrows located on either side of the bracket to the left or right or from the top or bottom, depending on how the bracket is oriented. The text will remain centered in relation to its length, unless you modified the text position prior to stretching. The whole block can be moved using the dynamically placed base point at the center apex of the bracket."
Notes from Cadalyst Tip Reviewer Brian Benton: This is a great example of what you can do with dynamic blocks in AutoCAD. There are several ways to manipulate it, and it has a text option. If you need to create annotation similar to this, give it a try — or just take a look at how the block was constructed so you can create dynamic blocks.

Luke 12:45-48 uses the word "servants". What kind of servants get beaten up by their master?
That looks a lot like slaves to me. We have an English word for that thing. It's called slaves. So why use servants? Servants are employees that got paid. Slaves are properties that got beaten up.
Does the Bible translator bowdlerize the Bible to keep it politically correct?
share|improve this question
What kind of servant gets beaten by his master? Any servant before the 20th century. You are completely looking at this with 20th century eyes and ignoring the historical context. – DJClayworth May 7 '13 at 13:40
I didn't know about the "before the 20th century" part so I found your question useful. Only a strong historian would know these things. – Tom Au May 9 '13 at 12:35
Well, still proper translation of the scripture to a 20th century english shouldn't use the word servant. – Jim Thio May 13 '13 at 10:51
1 Answer 1
The word servant used here is the Greek word doulos (δοῦλος, Strong's G1401). It can mean either a slave, servant, or bond-servant (similar to indentured servant). But in the Roman society of the time there was very little difference between them, since what we now think of as civil rights only applied to Roman citizens. Slave or not, a Roman master had every right to beat their servants simply because the servants were not Roman citizens. So I would argue that:
 - The words slave, servant, and bond-servant are (nearly) interchangeable here, since each would be historically accurate, the only things that change are the modern implications each word carries.
 - The meaning of the verse holds regardless of the English word which the translators chose to use.

 exactly! no matter what kind of words they use... what's important is how it is described. like "servants" can be beaten up to a pulp by their master as long as they don't die. – FFCoder May 7 '13 at 8:15
 roman citizen can beat up non roman citizen? – Jim Thio May 8 '13 at 10:43
 _USER_ : Yes, or at least that's what my Ancient Histories professor said in his lectures on Roman society. – Walter May 9 '13 at 6:29

4.1. Monitoring General Storage Cluster Parameters¶
By monitoring general parameters, you can get detailed information about all components of the storage cluster, its overall status and health. To display this information, use the
vstorage -c top command. For example:
The command above shows detailed information about the
stor1 cluster. The general parameters (highlighted in red) are as follows.
Overall status of the cluster:
- All chunk servers in the cluster are active.
- There is not enough information about the cluster state (e.g., because the master MDS server was elected a while ago).
- Some of the chunk servers in the cluster are inactive.
- The cluster has too many inactive chunk servers; the automatic replication is disabled.
- SMART warning
- One or more physical disks attached to cluster nodes are in pre-failure condition. For details, see Monitoring Physical Disks.
Amount of disk space in the cluster:
- Free physical disk space in the cluster.
- Amount of logical disk space available to clients. Allocatable disk space is calculated on the basis of the current replication parameters and free disk space on chunk servers. It may also be limited by license.
For more information on monitoring and understanding disk space usage in clusters, see Understanding Disk Space Usage.
- MDS nodes
- Number of active MDS servers as compared to the total number of MDS servers configured for the cluster.
- epoch time
- Time elapsed since the MDS master server election.
- CS nodes
Number of active chunk servers as compared to the total number of chunk servers configured for the cluster.
The information in parentheses informs you about the number of these chunk servers:
- Active chunk servers (avail.) that are currently up and running in the cluster;
- Inactive chunk servers (inactive) that are temporarily unavailable. A chunk server is marked as inactive during its first 5 minutes of inactivity.
- Offline chunk servers (offline) that have been inactive for more than 5 minutes. A chunk server changes its state to offline after 5 minutes of inactivity. Once the state is changed to offline, the cluster starts replicating data to restore the chunks that were stored on the offline chunk server.
- Key number under which the license is registered on the Key Authentication server and license state.
- Replication settings. The normal number of chunk replicas and the limit after which a chunk gets blocked until recovered.
Disks IO activity in the cluster:
- Speed of read and write I/O operations, in bytes per second.
- Number of read and write I/O operations per second.

Many pregnant women often use different essential oils for massages during pregnancy. They feel calmer and less stressed post its use. However, it is good know that the exact effect essential oils on the developing baby is not completely known. In fact, since the molecules of the essential oils are very small there is a possibility that they may cross the placenta and reach the baby's developing circulatory system. So do be very cautious about using essential oils during pregnancy, especially during the first trimester. In fact, for women who are prone to miscarriages, even oils that are generally safe during the first trimester can be too stimulating.
Essential Oils during Pregnancy
The oils that are safe to use during pregnancy are:
- Frankincense – for the prevention of stretch marks, anxiety and stress
- Lavender – for the prevention of headaches and anxiety. It is safe to use it only after the completion of the 12th week of pregnancy.
- Lemon – for the prevention of nausea and morning sickness
- Sandalwood – for the prevention of insomnia, swollen ankles, aches and pains and stress
- Wild Orange – for the prevention of nausea, morning sickness and constipation
- Geranium – for the prevention of insomnia, stretch marks, varicose veins, haemorrhoids and swollen ankles
- Grapefruit – for the prevention of swollen ankles, muscle fatigue and for fluid retention. It also refreshes and energizes.
- Ylang ylang – it reduces blood pressure and reduces stress
The oils that should be diluted with another oil, called the carrier oil, like coconut oil are:
- Peppermint (However use this one sparingly as you enter the end of your pregnancy and also during breastfeeding, because some studies have shown that it reduces milk production.)
As for the oils listed below, it is best to consult your doctor before you use them.
- Basil – it is said to contribute to abnormal cell development
- Rosemary – it tends to increase blood pressure and could lease to premature contractions
- Clary Sage – it may trigger contractions and even cause uterine bleeding
- Thyme – it may trigger contractions
- Cinnamon – it may trigger contractions
- White Fir
- Parsley seed
In some cases, it is best to stay away from using essential oils altogether. Don't use any oils if you have:
- Had a miscarriage before
- Had any vaginal bleeding during your current pregnancy
- Heart issues
- Diseases relating to the liver or the kidney
Blending the Essential Oil
- Since you are more prone to being sensitive to various smells, dilute the oil well. Instead of the usual 10-12 drops per 25ml, use only 5-7 drops for every 25 ml during pregnancy.
- Blend the oil in vegetable oil, jojoba or aqueous cream.
- Don't blend the oil in baby oil as that prevents the absorption of the oil into your skin.
Treating Different Pregnancy Symptoms
To reduce morning sickness you can use the essential oils in any of these ways:
- Vaporize it in the room overnight
- Put a drop or two on your pillow edge
- Take a 5ml bottle and place a few cotton balls in it. Add a few drops of the oil and keep the bottle closed. Take a whiff of the oil whenever you are feeling nauseous.
- Use Grapefruit or Lavender for morning sickness
Essential oils that stimulate lymphatic drainage are useful to treat swollen ankles. However it is best to use these only in the 2nd and the 3rd trimesters.
- Add a few drops of Geranium, Lemon and Lavender in a large bucket of water and soak your feet in it for about 10-15 minutes.
- Add a couple of drops each of Grapefruit, Lemon, Tangerine, and Orange into a little carrier oil or cream and massage it onto your foot.
- For most other aches and pains on the back and thighs a light massage using chamomile oil feels wonderful.
To prevent stretch marks you could massage over your abdomen and breasts the below oil combination. However it is best to use them only after your first trimester.
- Diluted lavender and tangerine oil or diluted primrose oil.
- Combine couple of drops each of Helichrysum, Lavender and Frankincense with 4 Vitamin E capsules in an ounce of coconut oil and store it in a jar.
Some oils can increase the skin irritation during pregnancy. Pregnancy is a time when the skin tends to become dry and itchy. While a slow massage helps, some essential oils can have an adverse effect and increase the amount of itchiness. Some of these oils are:
- Black Pepper
- Tea tree
- Ylang Ylang
Before using these oils during pregnancy it best to first do a patch test. For this dilute the oil and then apply it on the inside of your arm. Wait for a day to see if your under arm feels itchy or not. If it does then it means that your skin is sensitive to that essential oil. To remove the itchiness from your underarm, rub some vegetable oil over the area and don't that oil again.
- When you choose an essential oil to use during your pregnancy, do make sure that you choose one that is a pure one. This is needed because often some harmful substances present in the oils can prove to cause adverse reactions during pregnancy. Chances are that if you are buying a large bottle of essential oil at a low price then it is not of a pure variety.
- Research and know which ones should be avoided during pregnancy. This is because these oils can be very potent and wrong usage can even stimulate uterine contractions.
- The first trimester is a very important time during your pregnancy. So everything that you eat or put on your body should be done with utmost care. For example even if you are using, say, oils like lavender or peppermint for your headache, dilute it in some coconut oil (called the carrier oil) before applying.
- Avoid using old, oxidised citrus, pine, fir and spruce oils
- If the essential oil gets into your eyes then wash with vegetable oil – water does not work.
- Avoid all essential oils during the first three months if miscarriage is or has been a concern.
- Try not to use one oil for an extended period of time.

Home » Do Guinea Fowl Lay Eggs?
Do Guinea Fowl Lay Eggs?
Guinea fowl, also called guineas, are game birds that are becoming popular among backyard poultry owners.
They are indigenous to Africa and one of the oldest gallinaceous birds. Guineas are largely disease-free, hardy, and vigorous birds.
Do guinea fowl lay eggs?
Guinea hens lay eggs but not during the winter months. Laying for the year commences in the spring and continues through the summer and fall. Guinea fowls usually stop laying eggs when the days start getting shorter.
Guinea Fowl on Grass
Except when broody, a guinea hen can lay an egg daily during her laying season. This can yield 6-7 eggs a week per hen.
Do Guinea Hens Lay Eggs?
Guinea hens lay eggs once they mature. The hens lay their first eggs in the first spring of adulthood.
Every day for the first 3 years, a guinea fowl will continue to lay eggs.
Guineas are not particular about where to lay their eggs. Once they find a suitable spot, they make their nests start laying.
Guinea hen nets are usually hard to find. Guineas prefer to nest in long grass, woods, or any place that gives them protection from predators.
When guinea hens are laying their eggs during the day, the male usually acts as a lookout keeping an eye out for predators.
Guineas can sometimes become communal layers. They will lay their eggs in one nest until the number of eggs is sufficient.
Sometimes, this number can be as many as 50. The hens also practice communal brooding, as they take turns sitting on the eggs.
How Many Eggs Do Guinea Hens Lay?
When guinea fowl mate in the wild, they do so in pairs. Domesticated guineas may also adopt this breeding style if there is an equal number of males to females.
These pairs typically wander off as the breeding season arrives to search for good nesting sites.
Guineas are known to be seasonal egg layers. They can lay eggs daily between April and October, with the frequency depending on their location. You can get an egg on most days during their laying season.
Three Guinea Fowl eggs
The number of eggs laid by a guinea hen is usually around 90-130 eggs per season.
On average, one can expect 100 eggs per season. For some prolific layers, like the Black Star and Rhode Island Red, you can expect around 300 eggs a year.
When compared to chickens, guinea hens lay eggs for a shorter period. Also, around 3-5 years of age, their egg production begins to slow down.
How Big Are Guinea Fowl Eggs Compared to Chicken and Duck Eggs?
Guinea fowl eggs are smaller than the eggs of a chicken or a duck.
On average, 2 guinea fowl eggs together add up to the size of a single duck egg or a large chicken egg.
Guinea fowl eggs are usually creamy with light brown spots. The small end of the eggs is more pointed than the egg of a chicken or a duck.
The yolk to white ratio of a guinea fowl egg is higher than that of a chicken egg. The eggshell is harder to crack open than that of a chicken egg.
At What Age Do Guinea Hens Start to Lay Eggs?
Guinea hens start laying eggs around 20-32 weeks of age. They usually lay their first eggs during the spring after they are hatched.
Guinea hens start laying eggs when daylight hours increase and the temperature starts getting warm
They are seasonal layers, and they only lay from spring through fall. In the offseason or the fall of the year they hatched, some young hens may lay a few random eggs.
Guinea Fowl eggs
Do Guinea Hens Make Good Mothers?
Unlike chicken hens, guinea hens do not make good mothers.
While this might sound harsh, here are some reasons why they don't make the best parents to their young.
 - Before all the eggs hatch, some guinea hens tire and are not broody. Some moms move their keets to a new nest without waiting for their remaining eggs to hatch.
 - Some moms stay until the hatch is complete and then get tired of motherhood. They will abandon their keets, who are left alone to die.
 - Some guinea hens end up taking the keets across a damp field where they get wet, freeze, or die.
 - When a guinea hen makes her nest inside a safe henhouse, the eggs will remain unharmed, keeping the keets dry and safe from predators. However, it may allow the rest of the flock to put the keets through a brutal pecking ritual, which they may not survive.
 - When in a coop with other adult birds, keets are exposed to contaminated bedding, worms, and coccidia.
 - In some cases, keets can end up drowning in water without the adults trying to save them.
 - You can discover a guinea hen nest with 50 eggs or more without a broody mom. Predators like snakes, raccoons, or skunks will find the nest and destroy it, eating all its contents and breaking the rest.
 - A mom can accidentally step on her keet, crushing it in the process.
 - Keets often go unwatched or without nurturing, and if they wander from the nest they are left to die.
Some guinea hens still make good moms. They do this by protecting their nest of eggs and keets the best way they can.
Guinea Fowls with Baby
Some guinea hens will try to protect the nest when there is a predator attack. They will hiss and dart at a predator that is bigger and stronger than them.
In some cases, a guinea hen may even die from a predator attack if she is broody outdoors.
How Long Do Guinea Fowl Eggs Need to Incubate?
The guinea fowl egg incubation period usually lasts between 26 to 28 days, which happens to be similar to that of turkeys.
Since guinea hens do not always make good mothers, you can get a chicken to brood around 25 guinea keets in your backyard.
Final Thoughts
Guinea fowl lay eggs, but they are not usually kept for their egg production.
They give around 100 eggs per year, which is significantly below what chickens produce.
If you are rearing guinea fowls for other reasons, having them lay eggs is a plus.
Guinea fowl only lay in warm seasons, so you should only expect eggs from them from spring through summer.

Why is wind not always included in the forecast?
Wind will almost always be included in the forecast for today and tomorrow. However, often, if the winds are expected to be light and variable, the forecast may just read "Light winds" with no direction mentioned. Wind is often not included in forecasts beyond tomorrow because the speed and direction are still not certain. However, marine forecasts will always contain wind speed and direction, and most of these go out to 3 or 4 days in advance.

Help making a calculator 21.01.2020 14:43
I'm in doubt how to make a calculator.
need to convert a unit of weight (kg) into caloric weight, as follows:
if weight is <10kg = caloric weight is: weight x 1
if the weight is> 10kg and <20kg = (weight - 10) x 0.5 + 10
if weight is> 20 = (weight - 15) x 0.2 + 15
weight: ( form )
caloric weight: ( result )
result example 1:
Weight: 7kg
Caloric Weight : 7kg
result example 2:
Weight: 15kg
Caloric Weight : 12,5kg
result example 3:
Weight: 35kg
Caloric Weight : 18kg
Re: Help making a calculator 22.01.2020 08:55
first you need to create your input fields, in this case weight, that you will receive at the code section as $weight. Then you can write your math at the code section and introduce the result into your variable (if you call it'result', then you need to fill the $result variable, for ex):
For your case you also need to use 'if' clauses, so you can check the proper syntax here:
In order to build this kind of code
if($weight<10) {
And finally, you can write your result at the output section with

Science Can Now Make Human Blood from Skin
By: Amanda Chang - Nov 8, 2010
References: montrealgazette
Time consuming and mis-matchy blood transfusions may be a thing of the past as scientists at McMaster University have discovered how to make human blood from skin. That's right folks, the potential to personally make your own blood from the very skin on your bones is just around the corner.
The procedure to make human blood from skin involves taking a tiny extract of skin, extract fibroblasts, then add proteins of DNA within a petri dish to complete the process. Researchers predict this lab-grown blood could be ready for testing within a span of two years.

Riding on a knifeboard
This model is of a Tilling horse-drawn omnibus from the 1880s. It is an example of the 'knifeboard' design which had extra seating on the roof on which passengers sat back to back. It was nick-named 'knifeboard' because the seats resembled a knife-cleaning board.
Tilling omnibus service
Thomas Tilling started his bus service in the 1840s. By 1901 he had a total of 220 horse-drawn buses. His main depot was on Rye Lane in Peckham, but he also had other offices in the City and the West End. The bus company was only part of his transport business. He also provided horses and carriages for weddings and other special occasions.
End of horse power
By the time the First World War began, the success of motorised buses had made horse-drawn omnibuses redundant. The last recorded horse omnibus in London was a Tilling bus. It ran its last journey between Peckham and Honor Oak Tavern on 4 August 1914.

Education Secretary John Swinney says the Scottish Government are considering a'staggered' approach to allowing students to return home for Christmas.
It comes as students from Edinburgh University held a protest yesterday over the'mistreatment' they have faced over being forced to self-isolate in halls and given "false promises of hybrid learning."
John Swinney said that the Scottish Government is "learning lessons" from the Covid outbreaks sparked by the return of students and that will help them decide how they return at Christmas.
The Education Secretary is now holding talks with other UK nations to discuss what approach they can take to stop another sudden spike in Covid-19 cases.
The Education Secretary with Nicola Sturgeon
Speaking on the issue, he told the BBC's Politics Scotland programme: "Some of the points that we're looking at are around staggered returns of students so that they don't all come back in one go, that we look at arrangements for how testing can be part of the architecture of how we handle that return.
"What we expect of students when they are returning home and when they're coming back into universities and how they will spend their time, how their learning will be undertaken - these are all issues that are being explored."
The Scottish Government is now considering a system of mass testing which would be supported by a staggered return of students to stop the testing system getting overwhelmed.
He added: "These are some of the options that are being looked at and obviously... the practicalities of that are changed and eased if the return of students is staggered over a longer period."

Environmental Aspects Review : A Case Study of Two Sawmills in Etsako-West, Edo State Nigeria
The forests are essential for healthy environment. Trees which are part of theforest help to stabilize the forest soil, improve soil fertility, reduce the velocity ofwind, protect watershed and reduce the amount of carbon released into theatmosphere. Many industries use trees as raw materials and in most cases impactthe environment, but there are great differences in the impact they make. There isa need therefore to continually evaluate the operational activities of theseindustries to ensure that the environment is protected. The use of environmentalmanagement systems like ISO and EMAS standards has helped in the evaluationof organizations and industries.In this thesis, two sawmills Iretunde and Irepodun in Etsako-West localgovernment area Edo state Nigeria were evaluated with the aim to determine theiroperational activities and how the environment is being affected by them. Subaimswere to determine the most significant environmental aspects of the sawmilland their organizational structure. In actualizing the aim of this thesis, literaturereview, site investigation as well as oral interview of the staff and management ofboth sawmills were conducted. In the evaluation of the environmental aspects, thedetailed method of environmental impact evaluation by Ammenberg (2004) wasused were each environmental aspect that was weighted against nine identifiedcriteria.The result obtained from the environmental aspect evaluation of both sawmillsshows that the use of raw materials and emissions to air are the most significantenvironmental aspects. In conclusion, it was observed that the both sawmills arewell structured and carry out their operational activities effectively. Neither ofthem has registered under any environmental management system but there is aneed for them to do so in order to help check their operational activities in order toreduce their environmental impact.

Swift: Bytes for Beginners (Part II)
Last time a string was converted into bytes and then transformed from bytes back into a string. Following on from this, I'm going to start by creating two separate byte arrays: let strA = "Hello, " var buffA = [UInt8](strA.utf8) let strB = "playground" var buffB = [UInt8](strB.utf8) Note: I've simplified the construction of the byte arrays (aka buffers) since the last post and created them all on one line. This is thanks to reading this StackOverflow post. Joining byte arrays together Now I'm simply going to join the two byte arrays together. buffA += buffB And the same as last time transform this back into a string. if let a = String.stringWithBytes(buffA, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding) { a // returns "Hello, playground" } Reversing a byte array As you can see the byte array is being treated like any other array. Now let's take this a step further and use one of Swift's algorithms to manipulate the array: buffA =
Swift: Bytes for Beginners (Part I)
Talk of buffers and bytes can be quite daunting and before you know it people are wanting you to XOR. But the code that I'm going to post in this series is going to move slowly. First of all we're going to start with a string: var str = "Hello, playground" You should be comfortable with this first of all. Next we're going to create a buffer. Don't run away. A buffer is simply an array. And our buffer is going to be an array of unsigned 8-bit integers: var buff = [UInt8]() Why unsigned 8-bit ints? Well these are the code units that a UTF8-encoded string works with. So that's the only thing we can use for this example. But how do we know the string is UTF8-encoded? It isn't yet, but we're going to extract the utf8 bytes and then append them to our buffer (array) like this: buff += str.utf8 Painless. Next let's transform those bytes back into a string for completeness: String.stringWithBytes(buff, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding) A Stri
Pure Swift: Conversion of Cocoa dependent code (Xcode 6 Beta 5)
Original methods (using Cocoa) A week or so ago, I wrote a series of methods for a Gist String extension fork that simply borrowed unthinkingly from the Cocoa Framework: extension String { func splitStringByCharacters() -> [String] { var arr = [String]() self.enumerateSubstringsInRange(Range(start: self.startIndex, end: self.endIndex), options: NSStringEnumerationOptions.ByComposedCharacterSequences, { (substring, substringRange, enclosingRange, bool) -> () in arr.append(substring)}) return arr } func splitStringBySentences() -> [String] { var arr = [String]() self.enumerateSubstringsInRange(Range(start: self.startIndex, end: self.endIndex), options: NSStringEnumerationOptions.BySentences, { (substring, substringRange, enclosingRange, bool) -> () in arr.append(substring)}) return arr } func splitStringByLines() -> [String] { var arr = [String]() self.enumerateSubstringsInRange(Range(start: se
Pure Swift: A little deeper into generics (Xcode 6 Beta 5 and Beta 6)
At the end of the last blogpost I delivered myself a challenge to write a method that could remove duplicates from a String or an Array of any type. And here's progress so far. I'm half way and I'm not sure how much further I can continue without some serious brainwork. This is what I have: func identifyDuplicates(s:seq, contains:(seq, seq.Generator.Element, Int) -> Bool) -> [Int] { var sequence = s var indArr = [Int]() var i = 0 for a in sequence { if contains(sequence,a,i) { indArr.append(i) } i++ } return indArr } This generic method can take an array or a string and can be called respectively: let dupArr = identifyDuplicates([1,2,2,3,4,3,4,4], { (a:[Int], b:Int, c:Int) -> Bool in contains(prefix(a, c),b)}) var str = "Hello, playground" let dupStr = identifyDuplicates(str, {(a:String, b:Character, c:Int) in contain
Pure Swift: My First Generic Method (Xcode 6 Beta 5)
I was thinking about how to transform an Array instance into a Set, where duplicates are removed. And to do this for an Int array was fairly straightforward, func removeDuplicates(array:[Int]) -> [Int] { var arr = array var indArr = [Int]() var tempArr = arr var i = 0 for a in enumerate(arr) { if contains(prefix(arr, a.index), a.element) { indArr.append(a.index) } i++ } var ind = 0 for i in indArr { arr.removeAtIndex(i-ind) ind++ } return arr } but I didn't want to write a new method for every type of Array. I therefore took advantage of generics to write a method that took an Array of items that adopt the Comparable protocol, because that's exactly what we're doing to find duplicates; we're comparing the values of the items to one another. func removeDuplicates(array:[T]) -> [T] { var arr = array var indArr = [I
Pure Swift: A one-line method to add insert functionality to String instances (Xcode 6.3; update for Xcode 7, iOS 9)
This is the third blogpost focusing on writing pure swift methods and extensions. And here's a really simple one to add insert functionality to String instances: extension String { func insert(string:String,ind:Int) -> String { return prefix(self,ind) + string + suffix(self,count(self)-ind) } } "Hello World!".insert("Swift ", ind: 6) Enjoy! Update: 14 April 2015 I wrote this post in the early days of Swift and in fact there's a much easier way of inserting a string called splice(). var aString = "Hello World!" aString.splice("Swift ", atIndex: advance(str.startIndex,6)) So while there are any number of ways that we can approach the insertion of a String without splice, for example using subscripting ( inspired by a StackOverflow post ): extension String { mutating func insert(str:String, atIndex:String.Index) { self = self[Range(start: self.startIndex,end: atIndex)] + str + self[Range(start: atI

Or it isn't necessary? Thank you.
IF it is necessary, are there other cases it isn't for my variables?

In general, as Joel said, it's unnecessary.
In your specific example, though, it is actually pointless. Rectangle is a value type, so setting it to Nothing is not even affecting an object's reference count; it's assigning a new value (the default value for Rectangle) to your myRect variable. This is analogous to having an Integer variable and setting it to 0 at the end of a method. Doesn't buy you anything.
I should point out that the claim "Setting any variable to Nothing [or null in C#] never accomplishes anything"* is a myth. It is entirely possible that you may have a field in a class which you might as well set to null if the object referenced is no longer needed but you still have a reference to the class instance itself.
As a simplistic example, suppose you had some container class which wraps a T[] array, and you give this container an Empty method. It might make sense to set the container's internal array to null in this method, which would result in zero references to the array object, qualifying it for garbage collection. (You would then create a new array when external code next tried to add a T to the collection.) If you did not set the field to null on Empty, then there would still be a reference to the array (i.e., the field), and so that would be a small amount of memory being used that you really don't need.
Like I said, that's a simplistic example. And honestly, it's rare that you ever need to consider scenarios like that. I just thought I would mention it so that you don't get the wrong impression that setting a field to Nothing literally never accomplishes anything.
*I'm not actually quoting anyone specific here; this is just an over-generalization I've heard stated more than once.

What if it was an Image type variable? – Just Kidding Jan 27 '11 at 19:44
_USER_: Then Joel's answer applies (Image is a reference type). Setting it to null per se is not really valuable. On the other hand, Image implements IDisposable so you should take care to dispose of it properly (by calling Dispose or, better, wrapping the variable in a using block outside of which you no longer need it). – Dan Tao Jan 27 '11 at 19:46
Thanks then! :D – Just Kidding Jan 27 '11 at 19:50

Don't do it. This was important to do in the vb6 days, but for.Net it's possible (though very unlikely) for it to actually throw the garbage collector off and have other unexpected side effects.

Efforts to remedy existential anxiety and the sense of 'homelessness' permeating modern life invariably invoke ideas and practices swirling around dwelling and nostalgia. Geographies probing the materiality of loss and memory have elaborated and critiqued nostalgia in both regressive and progressive postures. We argue that amorphous and sensual qualities of nostalgia make it a propulsive force in dwelling. Moving beyond nostalgia as a representation of, or personal longing for, 'the past' or 'home', we engage historic practice as transpersonal, affective currents coursing through bodies, objects, and things. Nostalgia is an enchantment with distance that cannot be bridged. We explore nostalgic distance vis-a-vis practices in residential historic preservation in the Coronado district in Phoenix, Arizona. Practice, performance, and materiality of historic inhabitation illuminate nostalgic distance as an undertow in the making of historic sensibilities, subjectivities, and places. The elusiveness of nostalgia whispers enchantments, engendering attentiveness to what is near, to sensing closely. Nostalgic practice, performance, and materiality give rise to an everyday aesthetic of pastness, an embodied ethics of care rather than strict adherence to historic preservation codes and guidelines. We contribute to rethinking nostalgia and residential historic preservation as modes of sensing in which all bodies, objects, and things – human–nonhuman, animate–inanimate – have capacities to affect and to be affected.

Research Strategy: Working to Australian MS Research Strengths
MS Research Australia implements an informed scientific agenda to accelerate advances that will prevent, better treat and ultimately cure multiple sclerosis.
The MS Research Australia scientific agenda focuses on funding research that will increase our understanding of the biology driving MS and how to stop MS from triggering the disease, causing further damage and how to repair existing damage that can reverse disability. This is a medium to long-term strategy. It requires extensive funding, collaboration and coordination.
In the short term, MS Research Australia funds clinical research that measures the benefits of alternative symptom management approaches. Social research through the Australian MS Longitudinal Study measures the physical, social and economic impact of MS on Australians for advocacy and service development purposes.
MS Research Australia Research Strategy Overview
- What triggers MS? Can we prevent the onset of MS?
- What biology is driving MS? How can we stop it?
- Can existing neural damage be repaired or replaced?
To address these significant unknowns, MS Research Australia invests in five research streams. Funding in these streams includes both investigator-driven applications and 'platform' funding (see a summary in the table, and more detailed information below):
|Research Stream||MS Research Australia Funded Research|
|1. Social and Applied Research||
|2. Genetics and Epidemiology|
|3. Immunology and Virology||
|5. Clinical Trials|
How MS Research Australia Identifies High Quality Research
MS Research Australia identifies significant MS research in two ways; the first is via an annual peer-review process, the second is by proactively identifying, coordinating and funding major collaborative projects called 'Platforms'.
1. Supporting Serendipitous Discoveries
Each year MS Research Australia initiates a rigorous international peer-review process to identify high quality MS research to fund. Annually MS Research Australia will fund approximately $2million in projects and capacity-building grants including fellowships and scholarships.
MS Research Australia grants give scientists an opportunity to focus on generating new insights that inform our understanding of the disease. Capacity building is an investment in the future of MS research by creating opportunities for early career researchers to gain scientific training, to learn from leading MS experts and nurture a commitment to cure MS. These early career researchers are the next generation of MS experts.
For more information on:
2. PLATFORMS: Proactively Accelerating Blue Sky Research
Platforms represent a major investment in infrastructure or a collaboration that will accelerate MS research activity. MS Research Australia acts as a catalyst for blue sky research. We work with researchers to undertake the research that other funding agencies consider 'too risky' to fund but has the potential to yield the greatest outcomes for People with MS.
With guidance from the broader scientific and health professional community, MS Research Australia establishes and maintains national collaborations to address scientific questions that no one researcher could solve in isolation.
Currently, MS Research Australia has several Platforms underway including:
- MSRA Gene Bank and ANZgene Consortium
- MSRA Brain Bank
- MSRA Clinical Trials Network
- Australian MS Longitudinal Study
- Proteomics Collaboration
- PrevANZ - vitamin D MS Prevention Trial
In developing a Platform, MS Research Australia consults with as many relevant Australian and international researchers as possible.
This ensures that we only fund Platforms that:
- complement the world-wide research effort without duplication,
- fund a highly focused initiative with clear goals and timeframes,
- and identify potential obstacles early and solutions to overcome them quickly.
MS Research Australia's research approach has changed the way MS researchers can do MS research in Australia.

Client: City of Omaha
Location: Omaha, NE, United States
Completion date: 2003
Artwork budget: $1,200,000
Leo A Daly
Standing over 3-stories tall at 30 feet tall, "Labor" is currently the second largest labor monument in the country. The 271-ton design features the original ladles that were used in the Smelting Plant located at the same site as the monument. The massive design includes five larger-than-life 8-foot figures depicting hard work and dedication to this craft. This sculpture is showcased prominently as part of the newly developed riverfront in Omaha, Nebraska.
Chosen for his unique creative style and realism, Matthew combined realism and abstract concepts to create a spectacular work of art that is inspiring and motivational. Each of the figures, four men and one woman, have weathered expressions and hardened bodies from their daily arduous contributions to their family, community, and country. Incorporating the actual ladles from the original Smelting Plant was a challenge, as they were turned into a functional water feature to mimic their original use. In the colder seasons "Labor" still works as a stand-alone sculpture without running water.
Created from more than 39,000 pounds of steel and over 500,000 pounds of cement, this monument was built with the help of local cement masons, electricians, plumbers, steamfitters, laborers, carpenters, ironworkers, and operating engineers.

Question: What Time Are Most Big Bucks Killed?
Is it better to hunt in the morning or evening?
Hunting the gray light of dawn and dusk is often your best shot at success.
Watch the wind to ensure you don't blow your cover, and stay as silent as possible the nearer you get to your hunting site.
Whether it's by choice or circumstance, hunts during mornings or evenings often yield the best results..
Do deer travel the same path every day?
What time of day are the biggest bucks killed?
Most hunters are headed for lunch and something cold to drink well before noon, especially during the hot part of the day. This is exactly when many of the heavyweight brawlers will ease off the bed for a quick drink. Many mature bucks have learned that the midday hours are safe.
What time of day do big bucks move?
Deer Move Most at Dawn and Dusk––End of Story Like taxes and death, you can count on two things when talking about mature bucks: they move most at dawn and dusk, and during the rut. Deer are crepuscular. It's built into their DNA.
Are more deer killed in the morning or afternoon?
The bottom line is morning and afternoon hunts can both be very productive. Extra caution and care must go into your approach in the mornings. You simply can't see what's around you. For this reason, you will spook more deer.
What time of day are deer most active?
dawnTime of Day: For whitetail deer the most active times typically occur around dawn and dusk, with periodic increases in activity overnight. Plan ahead and get out there during the right time of day to increase your chances of success.

HORSE OF A DIFFERENT COLOR
Mexican Folk Art Figure
On his second voyage in 1493, Christopher Columbus brought with him thirty Spanish Mustangs, a breed then considered to be the finest in the world. Breeding farms were established in the Caribbean and Mexico, and the Spanish horses became a vital part of the new society. The mix of Spanish and native Mexican peoples produced a unique and colorful culture, the artwork of which blended brilliant color, texture, and design. The Mexican Folk Art horse represents this blend of traditions and histories.

Green Diary highlights artist Luke Jerram's new project "Aeolus," which seeks to capture the sound of wind passing through a landscape. According to Green Diary, Jerram received an £225K grant from the UK's Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPRSC) to create and tour Aeolus, an exploration of acoustics, wind, and architecture, which was inspired by a tour of desert wells in Iran that one local well-digger said sung in the wind. The artist has created a range of sculptures, installations, and live art projects, including the Plant Orchestra.
Aeolian wind harps were seen by Jerram as the best tools for capturing the sound of wind. "Long tensioned strings will resonate with the wind and will be heard by visitors inside the space. The ambition is to sonify the three dimensional landscape of wind. The public will be able to visualise this shifting wind map from within the space by interpreting the sound around them."
The piece will consist of components that explore light, including "hundreds of light pipes which both draw the landscape of light into the building and hum at a series of low frequencies. The tubes act to frame and magnify the landscape so that from inside the structure, at its centre, visitors can see through one hundred of these pipes simultaneously, contemplating an ever changing landscape of light."
The installation features a specially designed architectural space that will resonate and sing with the wind. EPRSC and the engineering groups of University of Southampton (ISVR) and University of Salford are involved and funding the project because they hope to learn more about how to make audible wind noises without electrical power or amplification.
The temporary installation will tour sites in the UK and elsewhere, and each location's unique wind and landscape sound will be recorded.

Healing Circle Garden
Posted 04/26/2011 by Childhelp
The American Indian medicine wheel was an ancient way of creating sacred space and calling forth the healing energies of nature. Medicine wheels were constructed by laying stones in a particular pattern; usually including a center stone with lines radiating towards the outer circle. Staff at the Alice C. Tyler Village in Virginia recently called upon the healing energies of the medicine wheel to help the children who reside at the Village.
A circle garden was constructed near one of the residential cottages on the Village grounds in 2006. One young resident helped to draw the circle of the garden using stakes and string while several others helped to collect rocks used to outline the garden. The children created planting areas by collecting and piling pine needle mulch and spoiled hay within the circle. Children also helped to build two beautiful Leopold benches that grace the garden.
A garden club was formed of several children who help with garden maintenance each week. This not only keeps the garden looking great, but helps boost the children's self-worth as well. The garden is currently filled with perennials, self seeding plants, and the beautiful Sunflowers which have been a prominent part of the garden every year. Often during the spring and summer, children and staff will stop to peek at the swallow or bluebird babies in the nesting boxes located near the garden.
Several growing seasons have come and gone since the garden was built back in 2006, but the children of the Village continue to enjoy the healing powers that it brings. Whether it's building self esteem or simply offering a chance to reflect on the beauty of nature, the circle garden continues to be a sacred space for the abused and neglected children who make the Village their home.
To protect the identities of the children in our care, we cannot show their faces publicly.

FROGS flee the sound of fire. Juvenile reed frogs (
Ulmar Grafe and his team from the University of Würzburg in Germany rigged up speakers in Ivory Coast's Comoé National Park and played frogs various sounds, including white noise and fire. The crackling sounds of fire produced the strongest reaction: the frogs raised their heads, scanned their surroundings and hopped rapidly towards the most fire-resistant vegetation.
Although most animals react to fire, Grafe believes this is the first research to show that the sound alone is enough to provoke a response (

Analyzing wealth concentration on Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP
Analyzing wealth concentration on Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP
Analysis shows that XRP has much higher wealth concentration than both Bitcoin and Ethereum. Nevertheless, such concentration poses risks for all three coins. Here's why.
Wealth concentration by the numbers
In August, blockchain analytics firm Coin Metrics released data around different coins and their wealth concentrations. Here are snippets for the top three coins by market capitalization:
Coin Metrics wealth concentration figures
Table by Coin Metrics
The numbers show that Bitcoin, as the largest network, has the largest total number of addresses with meaningful balances—indicating a leading distribution of funds and greater usage when compared to other coins.
Meanwhile, Ethereum addresses tend to have the smallest balances of the top three, indicating relatively strong wealth dispersion. Finally, tokens on XRP appear highly concentrated, potentially posing greater price risk for holders.
These figures are even more striking when normalized by market capitalization.
Wealth concentration adjusted by market capitalization
Table by Coin Metrics
Once adjusted, Ethereum is by far in the lead in terms of meaningful accounts and wealth dispersion. Moreover, it closes the gap between XRP and Bitcoin in terms of meaningful accounts as well.
The most alarming aspect though is the difference between median address balances. Adjusted median balances for XRP is 5-times that of Bitcoin and 32-times that of Ethereum. This may indicate that relatively few people are using XRP to meaningfully transact, despite much lower fees than Bitcoin and Ethereum. It is also suggestive of higher overall levels of centralization.
Critics may argue that the average is skewed because Ripple and its insiders hold over 50 percent of the token supply (worth approximately $13 billion at current prices). However, given that these reserves are only held in a handful of addresses the median shouldn't be materially impacted.
Complicating factors
It's important to keep in mind that these figures aren't directly comparable and should only be used to approximate wealth concentration. A single user can easily own multiple addresses while multiple users can also control a single address (through multi-signature accounts).
Fundamentally, these protocols also have characteristics that may skew the above metrics. Ethereum is an account-based protocol, which means users often re-use addresses, meaning the number accounts could be under-counted.
Bitcoin uses a UTXO-based protocol, which tends to result in many throwaway addresses which could inflate its numbers. But, Ethereum's gas fee mechanic tends to leave behind small balances in accounts, dragging the average down. Appropriately adjusting for all of these factors is a difficult task.
Why this is important
"Many have said that decentralization is the most important property of systems like Bitcoin and Ethereum."
Brad Garlinghouse, the CEO of Ripple, has been emphatic that XRP Ledger is decentralized. In October of 2018 at the Ripple-sponsored "Swell" conference in San Francisco, he called the ledger "very clearly decentralized," arguing that "anybody can participate in the XRP ecosystem." This narrative has been echoed by CTO David Schwartz and disseminated through the company's official channels.
Thought leaders in the industry care about decentralization. Experts in the field have argued that decentralization imbues well-designed blockchain systems with several useful properties. Blockchains are less likely to fail than traditional systems, more expensive to attack and destroy, and more resistant to collusion from participants, argued Buterin.
In contrast, high levels of wealth concentration are correlated to high-levels of decision-making centralization. It also puts purchasers at a disadvantage because it only takes a single entity to harm the price. In all, wealth concentration poses additional risk for investors.
One well-discussed example is the price action around XRP. Much of the value of the coin is derived from the success and actions of Ripple, a single corporation. If Ripple wanted to extract value from investors it could sell its holdings on the open market while reallocating those resources to services that have no relation to XRP. Worse yet, If Ripple decided to extricate itself from XRP it would result in catastrophic losses for investors.
Wealth concentration problems are exacerbated on proof-of-work systems, like what is planned for ETH 2.0 and what is already implemented on EOS. Systems which use tokens to determine the outcome of elections and make decisions give tokens direct power of the system.
Consequently, for proof-of-stake systems it's essential tokens are distributed widely and equitably, otherwise the system is at risk of unwanted collusion and rent-seeking. Over the long-run, these systems are in jeopardy of increasing amounts of decision-making centralization as large token-holders implement rules which benefit themselves at the expense of users on the platform.
Counter arguments
Though, there are also sound counter arguments to the theory that public blockchains require fair levels of wealth distribution. In a July 2017 essay, the former CTO of Coinbase Balaji Srinivasan argued:
"In practice it appears that a very high level of wealth centralization is still compatible with the operation of a decentralized protocol."
At the time, Srinivasan discussed a framework for measuring decentralization to assess the resilience of a blockchain. He theorized that blockchains are bottle-necked by their most centralized point of failure. In other words, a blockchain is only as decentralized as its most centralized part.
If this is the case, then high levels of wealth concentration may not matter if there is an even more egregious point of centralization for BTC, ETH, and XRP.
Risks for the three coins
When applied to cryptos these theories could help investors make better decisions about each of the platforms.
For Bitcoin, large amounts of wealth concentration allow whales to manipulate the markets. By conducting strategic trades with large amounts of BTC it's possible to take advantage of retail investors for profit.
Though, other less liquid coins such as ETH and XRP are at an even greater risk of market manipulation. However, small volume also means the potential profit from such behavior is constrained.
Under Balaji Srinivasan's framework wealth concentration may not be Bitcoin's main risk. Something like mining concentration in China could act as an even greater point of failure for the network.
For Ethereum, as the protocol moves to proof-of-stake in ETH 2.0, then token holdings will translate directly into political control over the system's governance. These systems run the risk of turning into plutocracies, where rich token holders enact policies to enrich themselves at the expense of average users, making a blockchain less competitive over time. This phenomenon tends to be exacerbated by low voter participation on public blockchains, as demonstrated by EOS and TRON.
Finally, for those investing in XRP there are other concerns. Many enthusiasts think Ripple is a good steward of their reserves. Because they locked the majority of their coins in escrow and pegged the sales to market trading volume, token holders can supposedly have more confidence they won't get diluted.
But, many of these large token holders aren't Ripple and would not have the same self-imposed restrictions. In addition to Ripple regularly selling large chunks of XRP these large token holders could also be holding down the price of the coin.
Understanding wealth concentration for each cryptocurrency is an important factor to consider. Incorporating the metric into the assessment for each protocol helps people make better decisions about long-term growth potential and fundamental risk.

ANKARA - Radikal
The Agriculture Ministry is analyzing roducts grown in fields, gardens, and green houses for residual pesticides. The ministry plans to revise its list of pesticides. Hürriyet photo
The Agriculture Ministry has rolled up its sleeves and has begun studying agricultural pesticides in order to institute new regulations for their use. According to the findings of the study, a number of chemical pesticides are expected to be completely banned, while others will be replaced with alternative products.
Every year many of Turkey's agricultural products destined for export are sent back to Turkey because they contain the residue of pesticides. In order to address this problem, the ministry has embarked on an analysis of agricultural products grown in fields, gardens, and greenhouses and will revise its list of acceptable agricultural pesticides allowed for use in Turkey.
Since the beginning of June, Turkish pharmacies have been allowed to sell agricultural pesticides, which is causing quite a stir at the Chamber of Agriculture Engineers, who argue that this could be harmful to human health. The president of the Chamber of Agriculture Engineers, Dr. Turhan Tuncer, told daily Radikal that these pesticides should only be sold by experts in the field, and that pharmacies were not appropriate venues for the distribution of such products.

Humanistic Spirit and Scholarship Value of Ancient Chinese Scholars
Download as PDF
The humanistic spirit of ancient Chinese scholars can also be understood as the spirit of learning. It is said in "The Note of Learning" that " If jade is not polished, it cannot become a thing of use. If a man does not learn, he cannot know his duty." It shows that what ancient people advocated in the underdeveloped natural science and social science was still a learning spirit of reading changes life. There are very few serious scholars. Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism and Mohism all embodied the idea of "people-centered", they think of man as the center of the universe or take man as a small universe. To a certain extent, this kind of philosophy has influenced ancient Chinese scholars to pursue the maximization of human value, and has also beautified the energy of human being as the center of the universe. It has also played an important role in the formation of humanistic spirit, such as "The Theory of Zhouyi", "Analects of Confucius", "The Book of History" and "Filial Piety", thereby embodying this humanistic spirit into scholarship value. This paper discusses the origin of humanities, the formation of humanistic spirit and the embodiment of the value of ancient scholarship.

The absorption of research knowledge by public civil servants
Abstract:The aim of this study is to revisit the major theoretical perspectives on research utilisation by public civil servants, to propose a new conceptual framework of the absorption of research knowledge by these civil servants and to provide a first empirical testing of the proposed conceptual framework. Some of the empirical findings are particularly interesting as they seem to converge with the well-known 'bounded' aspect of rational action. For example, they show a significant association between civil servants' educational level, on the one hand, and, on the other, their propensity to communicate with academic researchers and to acquire research evidence.

What is Civil Society?
Definition of a CSO
The concepts of 'civil society' and 'civil society organisation' are still debated but we use these terms as they are most widely understood internationally. Other common terms are; nonprofit organisation, charity, NGO, third sector, voluntary sector and so on.
The Centre for Civil Society at John Hopkins University defines a civil society organisation as:
"Any organisation whether formal or informal, that are not part of the apparatus of government, that do not distribute profits to their directors or operators, that are self-governing, and in which participation is a matter of free choice. Both member-serving and public-serving organisations are included. Embraced within this definition, therefore, are private, not-for-profit health providers, schools, advocacy groups, social service agencies, anti-poverty groups, development agencies, professional associations, community-based organisations, unions, religious bodies, recreation organisations, cultural institutions and many more." Statement of the Sixteenth Annual Johns Hopkins International Fellows in Philanthropy Conference Nairobi, Kenya

National Daughter's Day is a special observance that focuses on celebrating the bond between daughters and their families, as well as highlighting the unique relationship between a daughter and her parents. This day encourages families to acknowledge the importance of their daughters and empowers them to strive for success, happiness, and fulfillment in their lives. The observance also promotes the equal treatment of daughters and sons, seeking to break down traditional gender roles and restrictions that may hinder the aspirations of young girls.
Though the origin of National Daughter's Day is not well-documented, it is believed to have emerged as a response to traditional celebrations that often only recognized sons, such as Father's Day and Mother's Day. Canada, being a country with a culture that supports gender equality and diversity, embraces this day as an opportunity to celebrate the achievements and contributions of daughters across the nation. The inclusion of National Daughter's Day in Canadian society not only strengthens family ties but also reiterates the importance of empowering and encouraging young women to reach their fullest potential.
National Daughter's Day is observed in Canada by families dedicating time to their daughters, engaging in meaningful activities, and appreciating the unique qualities they bring to the family dynamic. It offers an opportunity for parents to express their love and support for their daughters, as well as fostering a strong foundation for a healthy and loving relationship as they grow. Although there is no specific date assigned to National Daughter's Day in Canada, it is typically celebrated during the month of September, aligning with observances in other countries.

Visual String Transformation using Damerau-Levenshtein distance in T-SQL
The fuzzy-string matrix below shows one of the simplest ways to transform
4 Changes are required, so
4 is the
Distance between the strings, which is 57.14% of the longer length.
(A large percentage means the strings are very different;
a small distance means the strings are very similar. More explanation follows the matrix;
technical details and SQL source code can be found at SQLServerCentral.)
Visually follow the simplest path of Changes from top-left to bottom-right in bold.
Each cell displays the cumulative number of Changes required to arrive there,
and what type of Change is required to arrive there from the previous cell, as follows:
- Equality (e): Move diagonally down right, because there is no Change (the letters from String1 and String2 match).
- Substitute (s): Move diagonally down right, by replacing the letter from String1 with the different letter from String2.
- Delete (d): Move down from the previous row, by removing the letter from String1.
- Insert (i): Move right from the previous column, by adding the letter from String2.
- Transpose (t): Move diagonally down and right twice as one Change, by swapping the letter from String1 with the next one.
Calculation of Changes starts from the top-left cell.
(You can hover your mouse pointer over each cell to see the calculations.)
To produce the numbers in each cell,
the first (0th) row and column are initialized with the positions of the letters in the strings.
For each cell after that, the number of Changes required to arrive there is calculated as the minimum of:
- Equality (e): The Changes from the cell diagonally above left (if the letters from String1 and String2 match).
- Substitute (s): The Changes from the cell diagonally above left, plus one (if the letters from String1 and String2 are different).
- Delete (d): The Changes from the cell above, plus one.
- Insert (i): The Changes from the cell to the left, plus one.
- Transpose (t): The Changes from the cell diagonally above left twice, plus one (if the current letters are swapped with the cell above left).
Upon arrival at the bottom-right cell, the total number of Changes is known.
If that number is all you are interested in, you can stop calculation.
But when you want to see the simplest path,
it is determined by working backwards from bottom-right to top-left,
following the direction of the minimum Change in each cell.
(If the top or left edge is reached before the top-left cell,
then the type of Change in the remaining cells is overwritten,
with Inserts or Deletes respectively.)
Shortcuts are available, if you want to stop comparison when the strings are determined to be "too different"
(that is, after more than a certain number of Changes have been identified). You can visualize these by selecting a Change Limit above:
- At any point in the comparison, the best case is that the rest of the strings are identical,
which would mean traveling down the diagonal ending at bottom-right.
Therefore, you can stop at the first of those cells (highlighted silver) that has too many Changes (in red text).
- Once the simplest Change path has diverged too much from the diagonal ending at bottom-right, only more Changes can bring it back.
Therefore, you need only calculate the cells in a stripe within your desired Change Limit
to either side of the diagonal.
The Changes in the uncalculated cells directly above and to the left of the calculated area can be assumed to be the Change Limit plus one.
If the strings are different lengths, the stripe is narrowed by that difference,
which is the distance between the diagonal starting at top-left (highlighted white)
and the diagonal ending at bottom-right,
because the optimal path must stay within the Change Limit of both diagonals.
- Comparison is guaranteed to stop, so there is no need to calculate at all,
if the Change Limit is less than the difference in lengths between the strings.
Also, comparison is guaranteed to succeed, so there is no need to calculate at all,
if the Change Limit is not less than the length of the longer string
(because then every letter could be different).
Caveat: There may be other equally simple ways (same number of Changes) to transform String1 to String2, but no simpler way.
Except, because this is the "direct" Damerau extension of the Levenshtein algorithm (allowing each substring to be modified only once), there may be a simpler way in the following scenarios:
- Transpose two letters, and then insert a sequence of letters between them (TO→OST theoretically could be just 2 Changes, but this implementation will report 3).
- Delete a sequence of letters, and then transpose the two letters that have become adjacent (OST→TO theoretically could be just 2 Changes, but this implementation will report 3).
(We are willing to accept that limitation, because those scenarios are unlikely to be accidental typographical errors, and the intent here is to count unintentional human errors.)
Note also that since only single letters are compared, Unicode Canonical Equivalence of multi-character sequences cannot be considered here
(strings must be normalized before comparison).
Although this site uses a binary collation for comparison (for complete case-sensitivity and accent-sensitivity),
you can choose to implement this code with a different collation.

A new quality assessment test was carried out to examine the relationship between the perception of audio and video resolutions. Three video resolutions and four audio resolutions were used to answer the question: "Does lower resolution video influence the perceived quality of audio, or vice versa?" Subjects were asked to use their own equipment, which they would be likely to stream media with. They were asked to watch a short video clip of various qualities and to indicate the perceived audio and video qualities on separate 5-point Likert scales. Four unique 10-second video clips were presented in each of 12 experimental conditions. The perceived audio and video quality ratings data showed different effects of audio and video resolutions. The perceived video quality ratings showed a significant effect of audio resolutions, whereas the perceived audio quality did not show a significant effect of video resolutions. Subjects were divided into two groups based on the self-identification of whether they were visually or auditorily inclined. These groups showed slightly different response patterns in the perceived audio quality ratings.
