Origins of Howison:
According to the early recordings of the name, this interesting and unique name listed as Howie, Howey, and the patronymics Howieson, Howison, Howisone, and Huison, this famous Scottish name is perhaps geographical from "The lands of How," a now lost estate in the division of Ayrshire. If so the surname is a member of the ever growing list of surnames of the British Islands that start from old sites which are either no longer around or have probably changed their name. Either way, the advancement is from the old British-Strathclyde word hoh, which pre-dates written history. It shows a clear or deep valley, and from which also advanced the surnames How and Howe. As Howie or Howey, it is a little meaning Little How, the addition of -ie or -y being a famous Scottish and North of England attachment, while Howi(e)son is the patronymic to give the son of Howie. Early examples of the surname records contain as John Howison, a burgess of Edinburgh in 1450, John Howy, a servant of the Lord of Cassilis, who in 1526 was involved in murder. Somewhat less dramatically in 1590, Robert Howie was noted as being the Principal of Marischal College, Aberdeen, while in the year of 1680, Thomas Howieson was the minister of Boleskin in Lanark and was also known as Robert Huison and Robert Houston. Interestingly there is a long culture that name ancestors originally settled from Flemish then to Scotland in the 14th century.
More common variations are: Howieson, Howeison, Howisson, Howson, Hewison, Howeson, Houison, Howisen, Hawison, Howisin.
The origins of the surname Howison appeared in Modlothian where people held a family seat from old times. Someone say better before the success of Normans and the entrance of Duke William at Hastings 1066 A.D.
Many of the people with surname Howison had moved to Ireland during the 17th century.
United States of America:
Individuals with the surname Howison landed in the United States in two different centuries respectively in the 18th, and 20th. Some of the people with the name Howison who arrived in the United States in the 17th century included John Howison, who came to Maryland in the year 1703.
The following century saw more Howison surnames arrive. Some of the people with the surname Howison who arrived in the United States in the 19th century included Morris James Howison at the age of 36, who moved to the United States, in the year 1903. Rudolph M Howison at the age of 44, who landed in America, in the year 1906. Rudolph Meier Howison at the age of 44, who moved to America from Finchley, England, in 1908. Allen M.

Del Howison (born 1953), is an American horror writer. He was born in Detroit, Michigan but moved to Los Angeles to pursue a job in acting; with his distinctive long white hair, he was a natural for low-budget horror films, and has since played the character "Renfield" in four separate seasons (making him the actor who has played this iconic character from Dracula more than any other).

Citrix ADC
Configure a stream identifier
You configure a stream identifier to specify parameters for collecting statistical data from requests identified by a given selector. An identifier specifies the selector to be used, the statistics collection interval, the sample count, and the field on which the records are to be sorted.
The Citrix ADC appliance includes the following built-in stream identifiers for common use cases. All the built-in identifiers specify a sample count of 1 and an interval of 1 minute. Additionally, they sort the data on the REQUESTS attribute. They differ only in being associated with different built-in selectors. Each built-in identifier is associated with a built-in selector of the same name (for example, the built in identifier Top_URL is associated with the built-in selector Top_URL). Following are the built-in identifiers:
 - Top_URL
For more information about the built-in selectors, see Configuring a Selector.
Note: The maximum length for storing string results of selectors (for example, HTTP.REQ.URL) is 60 characters. If the string (for example, URL) is 1000 characters long, of which 50 characters are enough to uniquely identify a string, use an expression to extract only the required 50 characters.
You cannot modify a built-in identifier's configuration. However, you can create an identifier with a configuration of your choice.
To configure a stream identifier by using the command line interface
At the command prompt, type the following commands to configure a stream identifier and verify the configuration:
 - add stream identifier [-interval ] [-SampleCount ] [-sort ]
 - show stream identifier
> add stream identifier myidentifier Top_URL -interval 10 -sampleCount 100
To configure a stream identifier by using the GUI
 1. Navigate to AppExpert > Action Analytics > Stream Identifiers.
 - To create a stream identifier, click Add.
 - To modify a stream identifier, select the identifier, and then click Edit.
 3. In the Configure Stream Identifier page, set the following parameters:
 - Name

Version 2.2.0 of Project Configurator will help make migrations of both configurations and projects easier and safer by addressing some key challenges we've heard from users.
While planning or working on a migration, many users want to know the right way to handle configuration items that exist both at the source and target instances. Actually, there is not a single "right way" to do that. Sometimes the default behavior of Project Configurator (apply the configuration it had at the source) is correct, but in some other situations you would prefer to rename one of the objects so that they become different unrelated items.
Either way, the first step is detecting these coincidences between the configuration in both instances, that might eventually become a conflict during the migration if they are not intended to represent the same thing. In order to detect them, the JIRA admin running the import would review carefully the trace of a simulated import. This posed two problems. First of all, in migrations of medium or high complexity it can become a time consuming and error-prone task. Second, it would detect only those coincidences that imply changes to the existing configuration of the target object. Most often, this is what a conscious JIRA admin would be after, but in some cases even a coincidence without changes might be relevant. For example, if both instances have a status called "On hold" but meaning two completely different things, you would not want after the migration to have issues that are in the same status, but for two very different reasons.
Version 2.2.0 of Project Configurator addresses these concerns with two new features that will help make migrations of both configurations and projects seamless. The first feature is called "Import conflict detection". If you supply an import file (either XML "config-only" or a zip with complete projects) it will produce a report with all configuration objects in JIRA that will be treated as equivalent to objects represented in the new configuration. So this removes the need to review a simulated import trace to detect the coincidences. All of them are shown in a single report. Even better, the report will also show where those configuration objects are used at the target instance. This facilitates analyzing the impact of the potential conflict and also renaming the coincident object (if this is the chosen option).
The other feature is called the "Used by" report. It shows the dependencies between configuration objects in a JIRA instance, in other words, where they are being used. For example, for what projects has a custom field values in issues? Is a custom field used in any workflow? And a screen? Is this field configuration used for more than one field configuration scheme? The "used by" report provides a compact answer to all these and similar questions. It is also easily navigable, as the user can click on an object that uses another and see where the first one is being used, thus moving up in the chain of dependencies.
We expect this report to be very useful when a JIRA admin wants to reorganize configuration items, for example renaming some of them or making sure that a project does not rely on configuration objects shared with other projects. Or simply when an object is going to be changed and we want to know the impact of that change!

You could use following to get element position run time and use them
String xCoordinate = selenium.getElementPositionLeft("elementLocator");
String yCoordinate = selenium.getElementPositionTop("elementLocator");

Thanks Tarun, So In this case if I have to move my mouse at particular position i need to store the x,y values in string and then use mouseMoveAt() similar for clickAt() method etc... – smriti Jun 24 '11 at 12:23
yup you should try that – Tarun Jun 25 '11 at 1:53
Thanks again... – smriti Jun 26 '11 at 12:29

The above answer is not a possible solution because selenium.getElementPositionLeft("elementLocator"); returns a number and not a string and not just that it also gives an error which says that we cannot make static reference to non static methods.

Siebel adapter uses the COM interface to invoke calls on Siebel. For business component query, Siebel supports two ways of retrieving the field values for records. One can either use GetFieldValue to retrieve one field at a time or the other option is to use GetMultipleFieldValues to retrieve values for a bunch of fields in one go. The latter is better from a performance standpoint and is what the adapter uses. The problem with this approach though is that even if one of the fields, whose values are being retrieved, is mis-configured, the entire query call fails.
In development environments, it can happen that some of the customizations have issues, resulting in query failure as described above. The first step towards diagnosing the problem is identification of those problematic fields. The error message doesn't always help identify the fields. When in such situation, one can use the attached Siebel COM sample code to narrow down the fields. You will need to add a reference to sstchca.dll (present in the Siebel install folder, in the bin sub-directory).
Once you have narrowed down the fields, you can either fix the issue with the field or if it's not of interest, mark them as inactive on Siebel backend. You can then query using the Siebel adapter without any issues. Alternately, you can also use the QueryFields (optional) argument passed to the query operation to retrieve only the fields of interest.

Keep your Fire Hydrants clear from snow
"Clearing snow around fire hydrants keeps them visible and accessible and will save valuable time in the case of an emergency," In order for firefighters to quickly and easily utilize a fire hydrant in the event of a fire, there needs to be a 3 foot radius surrounding the hydrant that is completely cleared of snow. If a hydrant is covered, the firefighters need to clear it themselves and the delay that this causes could mean additional property damage, injuries or even lives lost. Unfortunately, this is sometimes an issue and the main reason for it is that people simply don't know whose responsibility it is to clear the hydrants in their neighborhood. It is your responsibility to clear Fire Hydrants located close to your home.

Surrender vs Submission vs Capitulation
Surrendersubmissioncapitulation denote the act of yielding up one's person, one's forces, or one's possessions to another person or power.
Surrender usually implies a state of war and present domination by a victor or by an admittedly stronger power; in addition it often also implies the immediate cessation of fighting
Submission often implies surrender (as of an army, its supplies, and its fortifications), but it stresses the acknowledgment of the power or authority of another and often suggests loss of independence; it is used especially of those who rebel or of those whose weak condition leaves them at the mercy of a stronger power or subject to its threats. Unlike surrender, submission often implies not a previous state of war but a threat of disastrous warfare.
Capitulation also implies surrender, but it suggests a conditional one on terms agreed upon between the parties or the commanders of the forces concerned.

Making Sounds and Music
Espruino isn't fast enough to play MP3 or WAV music files, but it can output beeps of different frequencies using its pulse width moduled outputs. In this tutorial we'll show you how to make sound using a speaker from an old PC.
You'll Need
Wiring Up
Connect the two wires of the speaker to the Espruino board - one wire to ground, and the other wire to a Signal Pin that is capable of PWM (you can get a list of pins that are capable by typing analogWrite()).
Note: This is probably really bad for your Espruino board. Ideally you'd add a transistor to amplify the signal - or at the very least you'd put a resistor in series to limit the current. Given the boards don't cost that much, we decided that it was worth taking a chance though.
First off, let's define the pin that our buzzer is on. On the F3 board I've used pin A9:
var BUZZER=A9;
Now, we can try using the PWM output to see what happens:
analogWrite(BUZZER, 0.5);
This should create a beep, but to control the frequency you need to supply an extra argument:
analogWrite(BUZZER, 0.5, { freq: 1000 } );
This will create a 1kHz beep. You can stop the beeping by setting the output to 0:
Next, we'll create a function that plays whatever frequency we give it. If we give it 0, it will stop the buzzing.
function freq(f) {
 if (f===0) digitalWrite(BUZZER,0);
 else analogWrite(BUZZER, 0.5, { freq: f } );
We can test it:
But now, we want to play some music! We'll need the following 2 websites:
The second website uses the letters a-g for lower pitch notes, and A-G for higher-pitch notes. We'll make a function which goes through a string of characters, one at a time, and plays the corresponding pitch note:
var pitches = {
function step() {
 var ch = tune[pos];
 if (ch!== undefined) pos++;
 if (ch in pitches) freq(pitches[ch]);
 else freq(0); // off
Now we just have to define the tune, and pos - which is the position in the tune:
var tune = "c c c d e e d e f g C C C g g g e e e c c c g f e d c";
var pos = 0;
And we can start playing the music:
setInterval(step, 100);
To restart the song, just type:
You can load another song:
var tune = "g e g g e g A A g f e d e f";
And if you want to restart the song when the button is pressed, just type:
setWatch("pos=0", BTN, true);

Science Fair Project Encyclopedia
A spot beam, in telecommunications parlance, is a satellite signal that is specially concentrated in power so that it will only cover a limited geographic area. Spot beams are used so that only earth stations in a particular intended reception area can properly receive the satellite signal.
One notable example of the use of spot beams is on direct broadcast satellite systems such as DirecTV and DISH Network that deliver local broadcast television via satellite only to viewers in the part of North America from which those terrestrial broadcast stations originate.

The image above shows a Royal Masque in progression. Masques were stylish entertainments produced by and for the monarch and the court. The more elaborate and lavish the production the better. Masques consisted of dramatic pageants, which incorporated drama, music, dance, ornate costumes, and elaborate scenery. While the performances often likened rulers to mythical gods and heroes, there was always room for subtle criticism of public policy and laws.
Can you create your own Elizabethan-style Court Masque? The following activity will show you how.
First, decide who you would like to honor with this masque. It could be one person or a group of people who you would like to honor. Think of a good-natured joke or humorous story about this person that you can tell at the performance.
Then, select a song or write your own that expresses how you feel about this person or group of people. You can dance to this song or sing it. If you dance to it, make sure there are enough people to dance and perform the music. If you would like to learn more about Elizabethan dances, click here.
Next, choose a scene from Shakespeare or write your own that expresses what you feel about the person or group of people you are honoring. The scene doesn't need to be long, maybe two to three minutes or one to two pages.
To dress up the revellers (actors) make some costume pieces and embellish them. Choose something simple, like necklaces, hats and bracelets and add a bit of flare: add glitter, feathers, scarves and ties. If you would like to see images of Elizabethan costumes, click here.
Rehearse it once or twice until you're comfortable and ready to perform.
Performance time! Start by introducing yourself and the person or group you're honoring. Then tell the joke or humorous story. Next perform your scene, followed by your dance, and conclude with a bow. Bravo!

10 Brilliant Ways to Use Boiling Water Around Your Home
eHow may earn compensation through affiliate links in this story.
Maybe you can't whip up a perfect soufflé, but no matter what kind of kitchen skills you do (or don't) have, you can boil water. Though it sounds too simple to be true, boiling water can help you clear your skin, improve your garden, fix your tarnished silver and even sleep better at night. Time to put on the kettle!

1. Give Yourself a Home Facial
If you've ever had a professional facial, you know that estheticians often use steam to hydrate the skin and help it absorb products. Recreate that at home with a big bowl of freshly boiled water. As the water steams, place a towel over your head and lower your face to about 12 inches above the water (or more if the steam is too hot). Relax for about 10 minutes and then apply moisturizer.

2. Make Microwave Cleanup Easier
It doesn't matter who made a mess of the microwave; it only matters that someone cleans it. Boiling water in the microwave creates steam that loosens anything baked onto the walls. Put a few cups of water and some lemon slices in a microwave-safe bowl and heat it on high until the water boils. This should take a few minutes depending on how much water you use. Let it cool for a few minutes and then carefully remove the bowl and wipe down the inside of the microwave.

3. Kill Yard Weeds
It's not always the most effective way to deal with problematic weeds in your yard, but it's worth trying boiling water before moving on to products laden with chemicals. The most important thing to consider when killing weeds with boiling water is how to transport the water from your kitchen to your yard without burning yourself or anyone else. It's better to make multiple trips with small amounts of water than to try carrying a heavy pot through the house.

4. Clear Your Drains
Boiling water may not be enough to tackle really serious problems, but with a clogged sink drain, there's no harm in trying boiling water before buying expensive drain cleaner. Make sure there's no standing water in the sink and then slowly pour a kettle of boiling water down the sink. This may be enough to sweep away minor clogs.
Image Credit: deepblue4you/E+/GettyImages
5. Use a Hot-Water Bottle
Hot-water bottles have fallen out of fashion, which is a shame. The first time you climb into bed on a cold night and curl your feet around a soft hot-water bottle, you'll be a true believer. Hot-water bottles usually hold around 2 liters of boiling water. The best part is choosing a cozy cover for yours. There are knit and fleece options available.

6. Remove Lime Scale Buildup on Kettles
You can use a kettle to boil water, but over time, lime scale builds up and creates a chalky appearance and unpleasant taste. The solution? Boil more water – but this time with either lemon juice or vinegar added. Fill the kettle halfway with water and the juice of one lemon or with a half-and-half mix of water and vinegar. Set the kettle to boil, let the kettle sit until the water is completely cooled and wipe down the inside. Boil a few more kettles of plain water to remove any lingering vinegar taste.

7. Make Silver Shine
A quick dip in some boiling water is enough to bring your tarnished silverware back to life. This hack works to polish any kind of real silver items you have. Start by putting a layer of aluminum foil in the bottom of a large glass pan. Place the silver on the foil, sprinkle on some baking soda and carefully pour in enough boiling water to cover the silver. Let the water cool and buff the silver pieces with a clean rag.

8. Clean a Greasy Stove Hood Filter
Cleaning the filter in the hood over your stove is probably not on your list of weekly chores. In fact, you may have done it exactly zero times. Depending on your model, the hood's filter should slide or pop out pretty easily. Warm water won't cut through all the greasy residue that will probably be clinging to the filter, so soak the filter in boiling water with dish detergent for 20 minutes before scrubbing it clean with a brush.

9. Cover Unpleasant Odors
You know how a bubbling pot of sauce makes the entire house smell like onions and garlic? Boiling something amplifies its odor, which can be useful if you're trying to cover some other unpleasant smell, like microwaved fish. Set a pot of boiling water on the stove with lemon slices and peels, a few whole nutmegs and a few cinnamon sticks. Let it simmer (supervised) until the water is nearly gone.
Image Credit: deepblue4you/iStock/GettyImages
10. Try Your Hand at Canning
If you've never tried canning foods before, you may want to give it a try the next time you find yourself with more fresh produce than you can eat. Canning may be easier than you might realize and doesn't require a lot of special supplies when you use the water bath method. Submerging the sealed jars in boiling water kills bacteria, forces air out of the jars and creates a vacuum seal that makes canned food shelf stable.

Electricity Cost of Using a Kindle
I while ago someone on The Simple Dollar made a comment questioning the electricity usage of a Kindle. At the time I thought to myself that a Kindle couldn't possibly use much electricity. Small electronics like cell phones and tables and the like really don't use much power and their small batteries require little electricity to charge them. But I like to have actual facts rather than just simple assumptions. Therefore I set off to find out how much electricity a Kindle actually uses and how much the electricity it would cost to operate one.
Amazon's Kindle Fire is probably the worst case as far as Kindle models go. It has color screen and a more powerful processor so it will use more electricity than the other models. I'm going to just look at the Fire since its the worst case, the other simpler black and white models will be cheaper to operate.
The Kindle Fire has a battery with 16.28 Wh capacity. Thats 0.1628 kWh. The average cost of a single kWh is about 11¢/. Based on these numbers it would cost 0.17908¢ to charge the battery of a Kindle Fire.
You can charge the battery in a Kindle Fire 5.58 times for a single penny worth of electricity.
Amazon says that the Kindle Fire will last 8 hours of reading on a single charge. One penny worth of electricity will get you 44.64 hours worth of reading on a Fire.
 An average book is approximately 70,000 words. An average adult reads about 250 words a minute.
1 penny = 44.64 hours reading = 2678.4 minutes reading = 669,600 words = 9.565 books.
For the cost of 1 penny worth of electricity an average speed reader can read approximately 9 1/2 average size books on a Fire.
The Kindle Fire will also play movies and videos. The Amazon specs say that the Fire will play 7.5 hours of video on a battery charge. Nearly as much as the reading time on a single battery charge.
Since a penny of electricity will charge a Fire 5.58 times and a single charge will give you 7.5 hours of video you can get 41.85 hours of video playback on a Fire for 1 penny worth of electricity.
Of course all of these numbers are just averages and your mileage will vary.
Bottom Line : A Kindle is very cheap to operate and the electricity bill should be almost negligible.

SLAPPs, a form of Green backlash, have been mobilised across a wide range of policy areas that have seen vigorous campaigning and protest by the movement, including roads, GMOs and, more recently, climate change. SLAPPs are typically regarded as a threat, designed to close down democratic free speech and protest. However, in the UK, there are some notable cases where the environmental movement has been able to use agency to convert what may appear as a legal threat into a positive legal or media opportunity.

The Best International Schools in Montenegro
International Schools are very popular in Montenegro. Discover Best International Schools in Montenegro.
Why choosing an International School?
Moving abroad with a school-age child and starting a new life in another country can be daunting. Therefore, when moving to another country or city, it would be helpful to know which are the schools that can provide globally recognized and eligible qualifications to your child. Thanks to International Schools and their globally recognized curricula (British, American or International Baccalaureate), your child will get a first-class education in a safe and caring learning environment regardless of the country you are relocating to.
Why choosing a school in Montenegro?
Montenegro is a country blessed with a beautiful sea, rivers, and mountainous landscape. As a latecomer to the industrial revolution, the country has emerged as an ecological wonder whose economy is based primarily on tourism. The cities located on the coast offer visitors the typical Mediterranean climate, with long hot summers and short mild winters, whereas, inland, the country offers a more temperate climate, with abundant rainfall which turns to snow during the winter season. Expats families generally tend to move in Podgorica, where the main NGOs and international or multinational organizations are based. Montenegro health system is a combination of both public and private care, as the country is continually striving to catch up with standards in the rest of Western Europe. Expats will find many international schools offering high-quality education to international students. Check the list below and find the best International Schools in Montenegro!

Stochastic thermodynamic cycles of a mesoscopic thermoelectric engine
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2021
We analyze a steady-state thermoelectric engine, whose working substance consists of two capacitively coupled quantum dots. One dot is tunnel-coupled to a hot reservoir serving as a heat source, the other one to two electrically biased reservoirs at a colder temperature, such that work is extracted under the form of a steady-state current against the bias. In single realizations of the dynamics of this steady-state engine autonomous, four-stroke cycles can be identified. The cycles are purely stochastic, in contrast to mechanical autonomous engines which exhibit self-oscillations. In particular, these cycles fluctuate in direction and duration and occur in competition with other spurious cycles. Using a stochastic thermodynamic approach, we quantify the cycle fluctuations and relate them to the entropy produced during individual cycles. We identify the cycle mainly responsible for the engine performance and quantify its statistics with tools from graph theory. We show that such stochastic cycles are made possible because the work extraction mechanism is itself stochastic instead of the periodic time dependence in the working-substance Hamiltonian which can be found in conventional mechanical engines. Our investigation brings new perspectives about the connection between cyclic and steady-state engines.

How does the word saturnine derives! if you care why words derive!
Saturnine might have had originated in the fact that Saturn's Equinoxes are month long darkness (lack of sunshine for weeks altogether) as Saturn tilts away from sun (and toward sun) for 90 degree (Earth's 23.44 degree only)! Thats means parts of sun will get no sun-light for several weeks in the culmination of these Saturnine equinoxes.
So saturnine means a person who is gloomy or melancholic. ( — perhaps at-least for longer duration.)
I learned this because I was playing with words when grammar of my computer showed the word and I checked its meaning, I was although writing about equinox of Saturn, I came to learn this, cool is it?

NASA's Destination Station Exhibit Opens In Mesa, Arizona
HOUSTON, Dec. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Arizonans can get a sense of what spaceflight is like starting today, as NASA's Destination Station exhibit opens at the Arizona Museum of Natural History in Mesa. The interactive exhibit reveals the inside of America's orbiting laboratory while educating visitors about the vast array of science and research being done in low-Earth orbit.
"This exhibit is a magnificent way for children, especially, to be able to imagine what it is like for astronauts living in space," said Kathy Eastman of the museum. "It brings to life what many children dream about when they look at the stars."
The exhibit opening is a precursor to more NASA activities coming in 2013. Destination Station is NASA's International Space Station Program national awareness campaign, promoting station research and opportunities, educating communities about the people living and working on the station, and communicating the real and potential benefits for our everyday lives. The exhibit is free with admission to the museum. NASA will be sponsoring many activities that will be open to the public at various locations in the Phoenix and Tucson areas Feb. 21 through March 3.
The space station is a multinational research facility and the largest spacecraft ever built. It is an official U.S. National Laboratory where astronauts and scientists from around the world conduct experiments in fundamental life, physical, Earth and space science, as well as human health, technologies for space exploration and the improvement of life on Earth.

Strong and effective Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) can contribute to better and more transparent oversight of extractive industries and help to ensure that governments manage natural resources in the best interest of the public. The purpose of this guideline is to assist SAIs mandated with auditing the public sector management of extractive industries with capacity building, understanding the sector, mapping the sector and conducting risk assessments along the AFROSAI-E Extractive Industries value chain.


Email Customer Element
The Email Customer element is an Activity element. It should be the child element of Wait Selection element. It has a Send Email action and a couple of additional actions that calculate the event_seconds variable.
Here is the send email action:
The element then calculates the event_seconds variable, which represents how many seconds to the webinar start time. We calculate this variable so that we can text the customer 15 minutes before the webinar.
So when event_seconds is less than 900 (15 minutes), the engine notifies the customer by a text message. This is defined in the Notify Now element. If it is longer than 15 minutes, it schedules the text message by setting up a timer. This action is defined in the Wait 15 element, which we will create later.


Red & White Spectators Shoes!
Red and White Spectator Shoes
The following selection features our popular Red and White Spectators Shoes styles.
(Click Here) Shop All Red and White Spectators Shoes Styles
The Spectator shoe (British English: Co-respondent shoe) is a style of low-heeled, oxford, semi brogue or full brogue constructed from two contrasting colors, typically having the toe and heel cap and sometimes the lace panels in a darker color than the main body of the shoe.[ This style of shoe dates from the nineteenth century but reached the height of popularity during the 1920s and 1930s.
Common color combinations include a white shoe body with black, brown tan toe and heel caps, but other colors can be used. The spectator is typically an all leather shoe, but can be constructed using a canvas, mesh or suede leathers.
For women, spectator pumps have been considered, during certain periods, to be very high fashion and a kind of dress shoe, After their loss of popularity in the early 1950s, when sling-backed and sandaled, thinner pumps became stylish, they returned to fashion in the early 1980s. Perennially favorite in England, their high-fashion appeal went with the polka dot and black-and-white, red-and-white, navy-and-white, etc. combination dress ensembles trendy during this time. With their white color, spectator shoes are most appropriate for women's spring and summer wear.
Spats (originally a contraction of spatterdashes) are a type of classic shoe accessory covering the instep and ankle. Spats were primarily worn in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Spats should not be confused with gaiters which are garments worn over the shoe and lower pants leg, and used primarily as protective equipment.
French infantry wore white spats for parade and off duty wear until 1903. Italian soldiers wore a light tan version until 1910 and the Japanese wore long white spats or guaiters during 1905.
Spats continue as a distinctive feature of the Scottish dress of Highland pipe bands, whether civilian or military. The modern Royal Regiment of Scotland, into which all Scottish line infantry regiments were amalgamated in 2006, retain white spats as part of their uniform. Prior to that date most Scottish infantry units in the British Army wore spats. For Highland regiments in kilts, spats reached halfway up the calf. For Lowland regiments in spats were visible only over the boots.
Most regiments of the modern Indian Armies wear long white spats into which trousers are tucked, as part of their parade dress. Other full dress uniforms which still include spats are those of the Finnish Army. In the Finnish Navy, spats are part of the winter uniform. The U.S. Navy Honor Guard and Rifle Guard still wear them while performing ceremonies.
Spats are still used as a traditional accessory in many marching band uniforms in the United States.
The Brogue wingtip is a style of low-heeled shoe or boot traditionally characterized by multiple-piece, sturdy leather uppers with decorative holes (or "broguing") and serration along the pieces' visible edges. Modern brogues trace their roots to a rudimentary shoe originating in Scottland and Ireland that was constructed using untanned hide with perforations that allowed water to drain from the shoes when the wearer crossed wet terrain such as a bog. Brogues were traditionally considered to be outdoor or country footwear not otherwise appropriate for casual or business occasions, but brogues are now considered appropriate in most contexts. Brogues are most commonly found in one of four toe cap styles (full or "wingtip", semi-, quarter and longwing) and four closure styles oxford, derby, ghillie and monk. Today, in addition to their typical form of sturdy leather shoes or boots, brogues may also take the form of business dress shoes and sneakers or any other shoe form that utilizes or evokes the multi-piece construction and perforated, serrated piece edges characteristic of brogues.

How to design packaging tape (video tutorial)
Publicado por Hayden Aube
Designer, Hayden Aube, shows off his favorite techniques for creating a seamless packaging tape design in Adobe Illustrator.
When ordering from Sticker Mule, our artists will work with you to transform your design into a seamless pattern, but if you'd like to do it yourself, follow along.
Step 1: Create your document
Create a new document. The size of your artboard will determine the size of your pattern.
Step 2: Layout your tape
Using the Rectangle tool (M), create a rectangle that matches the size of your artboard.
Remove the stroke, and give it a fill with you desired background color.
Position the rectangle directly at the center of your artboard and lock it in place.
Step 3: Add design elements
Place any design elements you want to include in your pattern over the existing background.
Be sure to have some of the design overlapping the edge of the artboard. This will help to create the seamless pattern.
Step 4: Reposition overlapping elements
Duplicate each object that is overlapping the edge of the artboard (Copy, then Paste in Front).
Next, move each object to the opposite side of the artboard. Use Object > Transform > Move to move it exactly the same width or height of your artboard.
Step 5: Make your clipping mask
Using the Rectangle tool (M), create another rectangle that matches the size of your artboard, then align it to the center of your artboard.
With everything selected, right click, and select Make clipping mask.
Step 6 (optional): Add to Swatches
With everything selected (including the background), drag the artwork to your Swatches panel. This will create a pattern that you could then apply to any shape.
Once you have a pattern you're happy with, you can upload it to Sticker Mule for printing.
As with all of our orders, you'll receive a proof in 4 hours and our custom packaging tape ships in 4 days or less with free shipping. Samples of custom packaging tape featuring your design are just $4.

- Americans have different words for soft drink depending on which region of the United States they're from.
- The three most popular terms are soda, pop, and coke, according to data collected by the site Pop Vs. Soda.
- Linguists have noted other terms people from certain regions use for soft drinks, including tonic and cocola.
People in the United States have different ways of saying things from region to region, from what they call the night before Halloween to how they pronounce the word "crayon."
One of the things Americans can never seem to agree on is what to call fizzy, carbonated beverages: soda, pop, or coke?
That's exactly the question cartographer Alan McConchie sought to answer with his web project, the aptly named Pop Vs. Soda. The site invites visitors to fill out a brief questionnaire asking where they are from and which term they use for soft drinks. To date, more than 400,000 users have submitted answers.
The resulting maps illustrate what linguists have long known:
- Soda is the preferred term in the Northeast, most of Florida, California, and pockets in the Midwest around Milwaukee and St. Louis
- Pop is what people say in most of the Midwest and West
- And coke, even if it's not Coca-Cola brand, is what people call it in the South
Previous research reveals even more regional divides. According to Jason Katz, the graphic artist who wrote "Speaking American: How Y'all, Youse, and You Guys Talk," there are even more regionalisms that most Americans may not have heard of. Among them:
- A solid 6% of Americans simply call them soft drinks, especially in Louisiana and North Carolina
- In small pockets of the Deep South, cocola is the preferred term
- And in Boston, tonic is what a decent amount of older residents grew up saying, although that term is quickly falling out of favor
Whether you call it pop, soda, coke, or something else entirely, there's no question that Americans won't be agreeing on its name any time soon.

Difference between Merge Raster Layers and Build Virtual Raster in QGis?Geographic Information Systems
What is a virtual raster QGIS?
A virtual raster (VRT) is a special type of file that references one or more existing raster datasets and combines them into a single virtual layer.
Can you merge raster layers in QGIS?
QGIS uses the the GDAL merge tool, which is a very fast and efficient tool, to merge multiple raster layers. To merge raster layers in QGIS open the Merge tool from the raster menu, then select the raster layers to merge together, specify an output location and click run.
How do I merge raster in QGIS?
QGIS: Raster Merging
- In the QGIS Browser Panel, select the GeoTiffs you want to merge and right click to add them to the main window.
- Select Raster > Miscellaneous > Merge.
- In the Merge dialogue window, for Input files, browse to your directory containing your GeoTiff tiles.
How do I combine two raster layers?
Open the Mosaic To New Raster tool by navigating to ArcToolbox > Data Management Tools > Raster > Raster Dataset.
- Insert the raster files.
- Select the output location.
- Specify a name and extension for the output.
- Specify the pixel type.
- Specify the number of bands.
What is a virtual raster?
A virtual raster is a special type of raster whose pixel values are created upon request during data processing or visualization. Its memory footprint includes a reference to a source raster along with details of how the source pixel values will be modified in order to create new pixels.
What are the two types of raster data?
There are two types of raster data: continuous and discrete. An example of discrete raster data is population density. Continuous data examples are temperature and elevation measurements. There are also three types of raster datasets: thematic data, spectral data, and pictures (imagery).
What is the difference between merge and mosaic raster?
In the case of MERGE, the sequence of input grids determines the values assigned to cells, giving priority to those entered first. For MOSAIC, overlapping areas were blended to make a smooth transition and the sequence of entry is irrelevant (if on each overlapping area no more than two grids intersect).
What is merge in QGIS?
QGIS Introduction: Merge Shapefiles
Merging data can be necessary when you obtain vector data from multiple sources. In QGIS, the data need to be the data same type (i.e. all polygons or all points) and in one folder with no other data.
How do I merge layers in QGIS?
Quote from video: Okay often in qgis we might may find ourselves with a situation where we have four different layers. These are just countries and they just come in my background mapping. And so it's not really that
What is a virtual field in QGIS?
Virtual fields are a pure QGIS concept. The data provider (your database) does not know the slightest bit about their existence. Virtual fields are just put "on top of" the real data, their values are temporarily regenerated by QGIS every time they are required somewhere.
What is a virtual layer in QGIS?
A special kind of vector layer allows you to define a layer as the result of an advanced query, using the SQL language on any number of other vector layers that QGIS is able to open. These layers are called virtual layers: they do not carry data by themselves and can be seen as views to other layers.
What is VRT in QGIS?
Description. Builds a VRT (Virtual Dataset) that is a mosaic of the list of input GDAL-supported rasters. With a mosaic you can merge several raster files. The algorithm is derived from the GDAL buildvrt utility.

Sidrah on August 21, 2019
Please explain
Can you please explain why B ic correct? If the temperature in Charlesville drops at night, wouldn't that explain why average residents of Charlesville spends 10 to 20 percent more on winter heating expenses than the average resident of Taychester?
1 Reply
Irina on August 21, 2019
(B) does not help because we are talking about relative temperatures, and the stimulus tells us that "the temperature in T is always at least 10 degrees lower than in C", so even if temperatures in C drop steeply at night, T is still 10 degrees colder than C, so why are C residents paying more for heating than C? Also, night temperatures are irrelevant to winter heating expenses.
Let me know if you have any further questions.


EV1527 and Learning Code Remotes Explained Simple
So what is EV1527 and Learning Code?
EV1527 is a format of learning code receivers commonly used by radio frequency transmitters such as garage door remotes. The format was designed to allow a large keyspace (number of possible unique remote identifiers) and a practical number of possible channels on each remote while still remaining cost effective.
To put it simply, learning code systems have fixed codes assigned to each remote (which do not change). These codes are then learnt into the receiver which allows them to change the state of a relay. This learning function is usually performed through a button on the receiver being held down while pressing the desired button on the transmitter.
The EV1527 data transmission format uses the following layout to identify the remote and buttons:
Each bit can be either a 0 or 1 in value. Using 20 bits for identifying the remote allows 2^20 possible remote identifiers which is a little over 1 million. This means that there is a 1 in 1 million chance of another remote having the same identifier. For this reason, the EV1527 format is not used for high security applications.
The 4 bits for button identification are a great strength of the EV1527 format. This allows for 16 channels to be controlled through one remote transmitter. This feature is perfect for systems which require activation of many different relays via one remote.
These chip-sets can be found in devices ranging from 3V to 12V. It is important to note that the transmission distance of EV1527 chip-sets is limited by the voltage of the device.
EV1527 is often used in residential alarm systems, gate control and garage door controllers. When compared to traditional fixed code formats such as PT2262 (key space of 6561 unique addresses), EV1527 offers a much more secure and practical list of applications.
Higher security options
If EV1527 isn't going to make the cut for your setup, try a rolling code systems.

XDV Tutorial
XDV Tutorial
XDV Tutorial
According to XDV documentation (at XDV documentation: _URL_ XDV is "a way to apply a style/theme contained in a static HTML web page (usually with related CSS, JavaScript and image resources) to a dynamic website created using any server-side technology."
This tutorial will show how XDV can be implemented on your Plone site with the assistance of Internet Information Services (IIS) and Enfold Proxy. See also: XDV Reference and Using EP with XDV Themes for more advanced configurations.
Theme Setup
Here is a summary of the necessary steps:
 1. Create a directory on the Windows file system that will contain your XDV files. This can go underneath the root directory of one of your IIS websites or be entirely separate from it.
 2. Add some test XDV configuration files to this directory.
 3. With IIS configure a Virtual Directory which points to the directory with your XDV files.
 4. Open Enfold Proxy and select the proxy definition which will be themed with your XDV files.
 5. Go to the Excludes tab for this proxy definition and type the name of your IIS virtual directory in the Excludes regex field.
 6. Manually edit the eep.ini file (the EP configuration file found inside the Enfold Proxy install directory). You will add special instructions for the proxy definition which will use XDV.
 7. Test the web page in the browser to make sure the page uses the XDV theme.
Create a directory & add some XDV files
First we need to configure IIS to serve static resources for our XDV theme. This directory will contain our theme and its associated static resources, e.g., C:\xdv-theme and C:\xdv-theme\static respectively.
Create three empty files to get started: C:\xdv-theme\rules.xml, C:\xdv-theme\theme.html, and C:\xdv-theme\static\styles.css.
Configure a Virtual Directory in IIS
(These instructions are specific to IIS 6. The instructions are slightly different in IIS 7).
Suppose we want Default Web Site to be the site using XDV.
Launch the IIS Manager, right-click Default Web Site, and click:
New -> Virtual Directory
You will see the virtual directory creation wizard. Click the next button.
Select an alias, (such as "static") and click the next button.
At this point you will need to browse to the directory corresponding to where you put the XDV files (in our case, C:\xdv-theme\static. Click Next and then finish.
Configure your EP Proxy Definition to work with XDV
Launch the Enfold Proxy configuration utility and select the proxy definition/IIS site that you wish to theme. Select Excludes. You can either select All in the Auto-excludes field or type the name of the alias you used (in this case, static) into the Excludes regex field. Click Save and exit Enfold Proxy configuration tool.
Now in your browser, you should able see the CSS file from the static folder:
Manually edit the eep.ini file with references to your XDV files
Now we're ready to create an XDV theme. Open up the C:\Program Files\Enfold Proxy\eep.ini file in your favorite text editor. At the end of file, add following text:
[xdv default]
rules = C:\xdv-theme\rules.xml
theme = C:\xdv-theme\theme.html
You can also add these lines to enable more verbose logging. This is helpful for debugging problems with your XDV theme. But don't forget to turn verbose logging off.:
level = DEBUG
Now find your proxy definition and add these lines. For example:
[host default]
themes = default
xslt_enabled = true
(In this case, the proxy definition being referenced here
Create the Theme HTML and Rules Files
Open the C:\xdv-theme\theme.html file in your favorite text editor, and modify it to look like:
 XDV Example
 The simplest possible example of an XDV transform.
 This body text will be replaced.
Open the C:\xdv-theme\rules.xml file in your favorite text editor, and modify it to look like:

Believe it or not, that's a complete (but very basic) Plone theme using XDV. We now have an HTML file which serves as the base of our design, as well as a rules file that does the transform.
Test that Everything Works
Point your browser to http://localhost/. Admire your beautiful, unstyled HTML page. It should look like this
Not particularly visually exciting, is it? But what you have just set up is a very powerful way to theme Plone sites that makes it possible to use any pre-existing design with a Plone back-end. The reason that this is exciting is that you're using your own HTML and CSS, not modifying Plone's HTML and CSS.
How it Works
A high-level overview of what is going on in XDV.
The way XDV works is simple, but since it might take a little adjustment of the mental model that you're used to if you have done theming in Plone (or any other system), it's worth an explanation:
The main difference is that you're not touching the templates and HTML from Plone itself at all. Instead, you create the layout and design you want in standalone HTML and CSS files and map parts of the content that comes out of Plone into your existing HTML.
This means that you can create as complex (or simple!) designs as you want, and let Plone supply the content.
This also means that you can write your own from-scratch HTML and CSS, but also map various Plone elements to wherever you want in your own design. Plone knows nothing about what happens "on the way out", it just renders a page as it usually does.
A more visual way to look at it, here you can see how the Plone output is mapped into a totally different template and design:
This makes for a much more robust approach to theming, because as long as Plone keeps its HTML classes and IDs the same from one version to the next, your theme will automatically work even in a new version of Plone. And if it has changed, it's a relatively simple operation to update the theme - just locate the new name, and replace it in the rule file.
The Rule File
Central to the way that content makes its way from your Plone site into your theme is the rule file. Let's look at your simple rule file again:

Ignoring the preamble and the comment, there's one single instruction here:
So what does it do?
 1. It looks at the Plone side of things ("content"), and locates the part of the HTML that has id="content".
 2. It then replaces the part of your theme's HTML that has id="my-content-area" with the content it got from Plone.
The syntax (inside the content and theme attributes) can be a bit intimidating - luckily we have great tools to make it very easy to get this right. The syntax is called XPath, and is a standard for addressing nodes in the DOM, and it's also directly supported in Firebug. A full treatment of how Firebug works is out of scope for this tutorial, but the Firebug online documentation should explain how to install it and use it in Firefox.
The screenshot below illustrates what you see when you open Firebug when looking at Plone source code. Locate the content area as shown below, and right-click the node:
As you can see, there's a way to copy any HTML node, and get its XPath expression. When you paste what's now on your clipboard, you will see:
That is the XPath expression that uniquely identifies that part of the page. You probably recognize this from our original rules.xml file. That's the node that you're looking for in the Plone source, and you use the same approach to find the node you want to replace in your theme.html file.
You don't have to teach yourself XPath - just arm yourself with Firebug, and make use of its built-in support for these expressions.
XDV Rules overview
Four rules are all you need to theme a site. Luckily, what goes in a rule file is simple - there are only four types of rules, and they are easy to understand.
The rules are:
 1. replace
 2. append/prepend
 3. copy
 4. drop
Replaces an element in the theme with content from the site.
Real-world examples:
A useful thing to do is to carry over the and tags from Plone, so the theme will have the right page titles and work correctly when you do operations on folders:
The XPath expressions are actually pretty straightforward when you know exactly where the elements are. You'll get used to the most common variations after using Fire


RE: What is a cleanroom?
What is a cleanroom and why are they called clean rooms?

1 Answers
A cleanroom is a controlled environment where products are manufactured. The cleanroom provides an aseptic environment in which the concentration of airborne particles is controlled to specified limits. These limits are defined by the nature of the process or production happening within the environment. Within the cleanroom environment, air particles are measured in microns or micrometers. Micron-sized particles are smaller than a living cell and can be seen only with the most powerful microscopes. To achieve the required environmental conditions deemed necessary by the cleanroom production, the air in a cleanroom is purified using High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters. Air is forced through the filters, which remove particles as small as 0.5 microns. The filtration system depends upon the required level of cleanliness. Cleanrooms are controlled environments in which contaminants, temperature, pressure, static, humidity or other elements are controlled even if adherence to a cleanroom standard is not required.

Regulatory Pathfinder
for Coastal Development in South Carolina
Nationwide Permit # 36 - Boat Ramps
Boat ramps may be eligible for a federal streamlined permitting process under NWP #36.
It may be worthwhile to contact the Corps office to discuss your project if you have any questions.
Boat ramps must meet both federal and state requirements. All boat ramps must meet the following state standards:
 1. Boat ramps are to provide water access to those who do not otherwise have access by a dock, pier or marina;
 2. Unless no feasible alternatives exist in non-vegetated wetlands, vegetated wetlands cannot be filled or excavated for purposes of constructing boat ramps. If filling or excavating is allowed it must be limited to what is reasonable for the intended use;
 3. Boat ramps must be constructed of environmentally acceptable materials and demonstrate sound design and construction so the ramp is reasonably expected to be safe and effective and minimize adverse effects;
 4. Boat ramp locations that require dredging or filling of wetlands to provide deep water access, parking areas or associated facilities are not permitted, unless no feasible alternatives exist and environmental impacts are minimized;
 5. Public use boat ramps in easily accessible areas (bridges, existing abandoned causeways or other areas) are encouraged if the areas comply with other applicable regulations;
 6. Priorities for boat ramp construction in environmentally sensitive areas are as follows:
 1. First priority goes to public use ramps that are open to all citizens;
 2. Then priority goes to restricted use ramps only open to citizens of a particular area or organization;
 3. And finally priority goes to to private use ramps for only one citizen or family.
 7. If private use is necessary, the ramp must, whenever feasible, be located where the least environmental impact will accrue and cannot be wider than 12 feet.

We investigated detailed conditions for synthesizing the tubular form of MCM-41 mesoporous aluminosilicate. The method is the delayed neutralization method in which the rate of neutralization is one of the controlling factors. Rapid neutralization results in the particulate form while gradual neutralization leads to tubules. It is found that the tubule morphology has several sub-categories. There are thick-walled, think-walled hollow tubular MCM-41 and solid core tubules. There are void structures in the channel framework that makes the nanochannels to be effectively interconnected.

Question: How Fast Should A 12 Year Old Run?
How fast does a 12 year old run?
The height of the person in question, the specific length of the legs.
It also varies per location in the world.
How fast should a 13 year old be able to run?
The International Association of Athletics Federations recommends that 13-year-olds run no more than 10K at a time — approximately 6.2 miles. At a fast pace of six minutes per mile, this works out to just over 37 minutes, but at a slower pace of 11 minutes per mile, it works out to about an hour and eight minutes.
How long should it take a 13 year old to run 5k?
Average 5k Pace by Age and SexAgeMenWomen1111:13:2911:42:071210:20:1911:20:491310:22:1311:34:271409:28:2411:31:5873 more rows
What is a good mile time for a 12 year old?
How fast can a 11 year old run?
The world best for 11 year-old-boys is 4:23.9 (or is estimated to be this time). For girls: Regional-class is 6:45, national class is 5:55; world-class is 5:15 and the world-best for 11-year-girls of 4:42.9 (or is estimated to be this time). Run faster!
How fast should a 7th grader run a mile?
5:30 or less would be good for 7th grade, and 5:10 or less would be good for eighth grade. If you get sub 5 by the end of 8th grade, you would be really good. In my school, if you're in 8th grade and you get a mile time of around 5:15, you would probably be around 5th best out of the school.
How fast should a 14 year old run 100m?
Can a 12 year old run a half marathon?
About the age of 12 years, children can run a half-marathon. … First, kids' bodies aren't built to keep up an even pace over a long stretch, so the energy cost is more demanding than for an adult.
How fast should a 12 year old run 1500m?
At 12 years old, finishing a 1500m run is good as is, regardless of the time it takes. If you'd still like to keep track of time than I would say anywhere between 8–10 minutes would be great!
Who is the fastest 12 year old?
How fast can Bolt Run mph?
How fast can a girl run?
Who is the fastest kid in the world?
Is 7 minutes good for a mile?
A 7 minute mile time probably means you are somewhat fit, but it doesn't make you a great runner. … Mere seconds are extremely hard to shave off in seconds; a three minute difference is extremely long. So no, this is a good time, but it's not a great time.
Can humans run 100m under 9 seconds?
Overall, the sprinting velocity is a product of step length and step frequency. In his world record run in Berlin 2009, Usain Bolt ran at 12.4m/s in his fastest phase. … For a human to run 100m in under nine seconds, this would require maximum velocity to reach about 13.2m/s.

Clover seed brings benefits to Oregon's growers and the environment
Expanding the market for crimson clover seed means economic growth and fertilizer reduction
Crimson clover isn't just a pretty sight to passersby – the seed crop was worth more than $5 million to Oregon in 2011. OSU Extension is working to boost that number by promoting the clover's nitrogen-producing qualities to growers in other states.
Crimson clover has long been used as a cover crop, and because it puts nitrogen into the soil, it can help growers save on fertilizer and reduce chemicals from leaching into groundwater. More than 95 percent of the crimson clover seed produced in the United States comes from western Oregon. Of the 7,650 acres harvested last year in Oregon, 63 percent of it came from Washington County.
Extension field crop faculty member Nicole Anderson has been working with the Oregon Clover Commission to form partnerships with local Extension agents, crop consultants and growers in other states. Anderson and the commission also created a popular brochure with recommendations for establishing and managing crimson clover cover crops.

9. Visitors Can Still Experience Remnants Of The Billings Mansion
Although C.K.G. Billings' mansion burned to the ground in the 1920s, Rockefeller salvaged the remaining structure and incorporated it into the park design. The massive structure which survived the fire is known as the Billings Arcade – a 50-foot arched structure which was the original driveway that meanders up the hill to the estate. It is part of a 1,600 foot long brick driveway that leads to the mansion through the Billings gatehouse – another surviving fragment renamed as the Fort Tryon Cottage.

What does error TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable mean?
I am getting it on this code:
def write_file(data,filename): _TAG_ file and writes list to it
 with open(filename,'wb') as outfile:
 for row in data: ##i get the error here
share|improve this question

It means "data" is None.
share|improve this answer
Code: for row in data:
Error message: TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable
Which object is it complaining about? Choice of two, row and data. In for row in data, which needs to be iterable? Only data.
What's the problem with data? Its type is NoneType. Only None has type NoneType. So data is None.
You can verify this in an IDE, or by inserting e.g. print "data is", repr(data) before the for statement, and re-running.
Think about what you need to do next: How should "no data" be represented? Do we write an empty file? Do we raise an exception or log a warning or keep silent?
share|improve this answer
It means that the data variable is passing None (which is type NoneType), its equivalent for nothing. So it can't be iterable as a list, as you are trying to do.
share|improve this answer
it would be nice if just iterated like an empty list... would nake for cleaner code and less error checking – deltanine Aug 19 '13 at 1:03
_USER_ It would make for a lot of problems being more difficult to detect I think. I'm glad None is different from an empty iterable. If you want your described behaviour, just use for row in data or []: – Mark 20 hours ago
You're calling write_file with arguments like this:
write_file(foo, bar)
But you haven't defined 'foo' correctly, or you have a typo in your code so that it's creating a new empty variable and passing it in.

The Healer's Art Program is a national program offered by the Remen Institute for the Study of Health and Illness (RISHI) that enables medical students to learn how to provide compassionate care and build resilience through reflection, discussions, and story-telling. Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine (WSU-BSOM) administers the program.
The Remen Insitute for the Study of Health and Illness at Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine
- A diversity of studies have shown that medical students suffer from high levels burnout, which often contributes to a perceived lack of empathy and decreased professionalism.
- To prevent burnout, Rachel Naomi Remen, MD originated the course in 1991 while at the University of California San Francisco.
- She designed the course to aid students to build resiliency and reflect on the importance of compassionate care at a time when physicians were experiencing a loss of meaning and commitment to their work.
- Healer's Art is one of several projects coordinated by RISHI and is usually implemented at 70-80 medical schools.
- This program utilizes a reflection-based and story-telling curriculum to optimize medical student education surrounding compassionate care.
- Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine (WSU-BSOM), like many medical schools, is aware that students and practicing physicians experience burnout and professional dissatisfaction.
- By offering the Healer's Art Program to its firstand second-year students, WSU-BSOM hopes to preempt dissatisfaction.
- WSU-BSOM houses RISHI and offers the course to domestic and international medical schools by training faculty on how to implement this program at their medical school.
Patient Population Served and Payor Information
- At WSU-BSOM, the class includes 480 total students with a male/female ratio of 45.4%/54.6%. Underrepresented minorities also make up 20.4% of total enrollment.
- Medical students that participate in Healer's Art Program at other medical schools represent the diversity of their medical schools.
- Students at osteopathic, physician assistant, physical therapy and veterinary programs can also receive this curriculum.
- The curriculum is now administered at the Boonshoft School of Medicine and overseen by the Department of Medical Education.
- Course Co-Directors at WSU-BSOM include Dr. Dean Parmelee, Dr. Evangeline Andarsio, Dr. S. Bruce Binder, Dr. John Donnelly.
- Academic medical school funding
Research + Planning
- The support of a dean or associate dean is necessary to introduce the Healer's Art Course into a medical school's firstor second-year curriculum.
- After gaining support, faculty then need to attend an intensive training at RISHI to learn how to deliver the course.
- To ensure that the course meets its objectives, the Center for the Study of the Healer's Art (CSHA) conducts ongoing evaluations using faculty and student feedback.
Tools or Products Developed
- The Healer's Art curriculum: This curriculum was initially developed in 1991 and served as the basis of the course at WSU-BSOM.
- The 15-hour course teaches:
- Relationship forming between the physician and patient and between physicians and colleagues
- Academic and community faculty members must attend a training workshop at RISHI to learn how to implement and sustain the Healer's Art Program at their own institution.
Team Members Involved
- The participating students at Boonshoft School of Medicine have the option to take the course, although it does not confer any academic credits.
- The course is structured as 3-hours sessions that meets bi-weekly :
- Session One: "Discovering and Nurturing Your Wholeness"
- Session Two: "Sharing Grief and Honoring Loss"
- Session Three: "Group Conversation"
- Session Four: "Beyond Analysis: Allowing Awe in Medicine"
- Session Five: "The Care of the Soul: Service as a Way of Life"
- Students engage in topics regarding the loss of life, comforting patients, and personal-reflection through discussions and meditation. Each session reinforces previous sessions.
- Upon completion, students receive a comprehensive letter from the course directors that is incorporated into their final Medical Student Performance Evaluation.
- Cost of membership and licensing fee to offer this copyrighted course
- Cost of course materials
- Cost of labor for educators running the sessions
- Cost of faculty training at RISHI
Where We Are
The Healer's Art was incorporated into the Boonshoft School of Medicine curriculum in 2004, and the program is ongoing.
- An evaluation of the Healer's Art program that had 489 student and 88 faculty respondents found:
- students (65.7%) and faculty (75.0%) use content from the course in their profession
- students found the course to be of high quality (average 4.47 on a 5-point scale)
- students (average 4.59 on a 5-point scale) and faculty (4.76 on a 5-point scale) perceived that the course provided content that is not present in the rest of the curriculum
- The Healer's Art has provided space and multiple outlets for students to reflect on compassionate care and self-resiliency.
- The course is now taught at more than 70 medical schools in the US and abroad.

Create Deep Links to App Content
When a clicked link or programmatic request invokes a web URI intent, the Android system tries each of the following actions, in sequential order, until the request succeeds:
 1. Open the user's preferred app that can handle the URI, if one is designated.
 2. Open the only available app that can handle the URI.
 3. Allow the user to select an app from a dialog.
Follow the steps below to create and test links to your content. You can also use the App Links Assistant in Android Studio to add Android App Links.
Add intent filters for incoming links
To create a link to your app content, add an intent filter that contains these elements and attribute values in your manifest:
Add one or more tags, each of which represents a URI format that resolves to the activity. At minimum, the tag must include the android:scheme attribute.
You can add more attributes to further refine the type of URI that the activity accepts. For example, you might have multiple activities that accept similar URIs, but which differ simply based on the path name. In this case, use the android:path attribute or its pathPattern or pathPrefix variants to differentiate which activity the system should open for different URI paths.
Include the BROWSABLE category. It is required in order for the intent filter to be accessible from a web browser. Without it, clicking a link in a browser cannot resolve to your app.
Also include the DEFAULT category. This allows your app to respond to implicit intents. Without this, the activity can be started only if the intent specifies your app component name.
 android:label="_USER_/title_gizmos" >

Notice that the two intent filters only differ by the element. Although it's possible to include multiple elements in the same filter, it's important that you create separate filters when your intention is to declare unique URLs (such as a specific combination of scheme and host), because multiple elements in the same intent filter are actually merged together to account for all variations of their combined attributes. For example, consider the following:

It might seem as though this supports only and app:// However, it actually supports those two, plus these: app:// and
Read data from incoming intents
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
 val action: String? = intent?.action
 val data: Uri? = intent?.data
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
 Intent intent = getIntent();
 String action = intent.getAction();
 Uri data = intent.getData();
Follow these best practices to improve the user's experience:
Test your deep links
$ adb shell am start
 -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW
 -d
$ adb shell am start
 -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW
 -d "example://gizmos"
The manifest declaration and intent handler you set above define the connection between your app and a website and what to do with incoming links. However, in order to have the system treat your app as the default handler for a set of URIs, you must also request that the system verify this connection. The next lesson explains how to implement this verification.
To learn more about intents and app links, see the following resources:

JTU Institute for Education and Culture
09 July 2009
The Japan Teachers' Union (JTU) is the oldest and largest union for teachers in Japan. NFER was commissioned by the JTU to undertake a comparative study of England, Scotland and Finland's working teachers practice. The JTU compared the workload conditions of teachers in England and Scotland to those in Japan, in order to advocate for change to policies on Japanese teachers' working conditions. The aim was to see how good working conditions affected academic performance.
The NFER approached a sample of headteachers, deputy headteachers, assistant headteachers and class teachers across England and Scotland, who were asked various questions about their working life. Finland was of interest because of its high pupil academic attainment, and England due to its compulsory national curriculum testing. Schools in Scotland were approached because of their similarity to English schools but without compulsory national testing. Representatives from the JTU also visited four schools in England and Scotland to observe working conditions and practices for themselves.
The report contains comparisons of the following:
- hours worked
- time preparing for class
- perceptions of teacher tasks
- pressures associated with changes to education policy
- attitudes of student\families
- difficulties with taking breaks and days-off.
This summary report is a fascinating insight into the differences in teachers' working conditions across four countries.

In vivo Simultaneous Monitoring by Pt - disk Microelectrodes of Intracerebral Hydrogen Peroxide and Dopamine in Rats
A technique was developed for simultaneous monitoring of temporal changes in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and dopamine (DA) levels by using Pt-disk microelectrodes (φ 30 μm). H2O2 and DA were determined by differential double-pulse amperometry (for H2O2; 1st step, 750 mV, 1000 ms; 2nd step, 1100 mV, 1000 ms: for DA; 1st step, 150 mV, 600 ms; 2nd step, 250 mV, 50 ms). The electrode for H2O2 or DA is capable of determining each target substance and these substances do not interfere with each other. For an in vivo application, the electrodes were implanted into the striatum of rats and used successfully to monitor intrastriatal changes in H2O2 and DA simultaneously after intraperitoneal injection of methamphetamine while the animals were moving freely.

Preparation, proton conduction, and application in ammonia synthesis at atmospheric pressure of La0.9Ba0.1Ga1–xMgxO3–α
- 229 Downloads
La0.9Ba0.1Ga1–xMgxO3–α (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.25) was prepared by the microemulsion method. A single phase of LaGaO3 perovskite structure was formed when x was ≥0.15. Electrochemical hydrogen permeation (hydrogen pumping) proved that La0.9Ba0.1Ga1–xMgxO3–α had proton conduction, and the proton conduction was measured by AC impedance spectroscopy method from 400 to 800 °C in hydrogen atmospheres. Among these samples, La0.9Ba0.1Ga0.8Mg0.2O3–α has the highest proton conductivity with the values of 9.51 × 10−4 to 4.68 × 10−2 S cm−1 at 400–800 °C. Ammonia was synthesized from nitrogen and hydrogen at atmospheric pressure in an electrolytic cell using La0.9Ba0.1Ga0.8Mg0.2O3–α as electrolyte. The rate of NH3 formation was 1.89 × 10−9 mol s−1 cm−2 at 520 °C upon imposing a current of 1 mA through the cell.
