Community forest management in Mexico reduces poverty while conserving natural resources
Newspapers El Financiero and Milenio.com report on new studies that show community forest management in Mexico has reduced poverty and social inequity while simultaneously conserving natural resources. Over 2,300 forest communities have been given forest use permission in Mexico, resulting in economic growth and effective conservation of forests in these areas. The report suggests the need for a complementary system of both publicly protected areas and a framework for community managed forests in order to effectively reduce poverty and conserve natural resources.

Gingergrass essential oil, distilled from the aromatic and herbaceous grass Cymbopogon martini var. sofia, is a close sibling species of Palmarosa (Cymbopogon martini var. motia). In other words, these two oils are oils are distilled from two different varieties of the exact same plant species. Where their natural habitats do overlap spontaneous hybrids of the two sibling species are common.
As might be expected, the two oils have very similar profiles regarding their clinical use in both herbal medicine and aromatherapy. However, there are various subtle differences between the two plants. Here are some of these:
- Gingergras is tetraploid and palmarosa is diploid. While a tetraploid organism has four sets of chromosomes, a diploid organism features two sets of chromosomes (one set from the female parent and another set from the male parent).
- The two varieties seldom grow in proximity to each other and are usually found at different altitudes (gingergrass prefers lower altitudes) and in different environments. While palmarosa prefers sunny mountain slopes, forest clearings and dry, well-drained soil, gingergrass is found primarily in humid, low altitude valleys and forests which are well-watered by frequent fog and a high annual rainfall. Thus, while the palmarosa type is better for a dry environment, the gingergrass type is better for one with higher humidity.
- Palmarosa grows in scattered patches in a dry and sunny habitat. Gingergrass grows in dense masses in a wetter and less sunny habitat.
- Gingergrass essential oil has a geraniol content up to 65%. Palmarosa oil has a geraniol content of up to 95%.
- When an inflorescence leaf (an inflorescence is the part of a plant that consists of a flower-bearing stalk or series of branches) of each species is moved from base to tip between ones fingers, while the gingergrass leaf feels rough and sticky, the palmarosa leaf feels smooth and clean.
Spiritual PhytoEssencing (SPE) is not a clinical practice. Rather it employs essential oils for the purpose of deep soul-level healing. All of these differences between gingergrass and palmarosa serve as plant signatures that help highlight differences between the gingergrassand palmarosa-type individuals (i.e., between individuals who have a deep constitutional affinity for one or the other oil). In this article I will limit my discussion to expanding understanding of the inner nature of these two oils via their gemstone synchronicities.
Carl Jung coined the term "synchronicity," referring to thoughts and events that are connected in ways other than causally (i.e., by the law of cause and effect). In Carl Jung: Wounded Healer Of The Soul, Clair Dunne writes: "Jung called synchronicity 'acausal [without rationally explicable cause] orderedness', a principle not contradicting the scientific time, space, and causality modes of Western thinking, but rather a complementary addition to it…Synchronicities are hard to verify objectively, but they are subjectively very meaningful."
In the classic example from his own work, Jung, while listening to a patient recount a dream about a scarab (a type of beetle), heard a light tapping on his office window. When he went to investigate the sound, he saw a brilliantly colored beetle just outside the window. This uncanny coincidence made him wonder about the meaning of such "synchronicities." In SPE synchronicities play a major role in my elaboration of the unique soul-nature of each essential oil.
Synchronicities, unlike scientifically observed phenomena, cannot be definitively explained via the laws of the space-time dimension. Instead, they emerge from the domain of spirit and collective consciousness. Their value in healing work can only be demonstrated through practical application.
Thus far, I have identified more than 70 synchronicities between specific essential oils and gemstones. These synchronicities play an important role in many of the chapters I have written for Berkowsky's Synthesis Materia Medica of Essential Oils. Gemstone synchronicities play an especially crucial role in the differentiation between palmarosa oil and gingergrass oil.
Plants, like human beings and all other animals, are alive and everything that is alive is ensouled. In the same way, that one cannot really know another person without developing relation with his or her authentic self (that aspect of the self-structure which has never disengaged from spirit), one cannot truly know an essential oil without developing soul-to-soul relation with its innermost realm. This cannot be achieved solely through study of the biochemical profile and therapeutic actions of an oil as these are archetypal images (tangible manifestations of an underlying non-material archetype) that represent just a fraction of the complex archetypal fabric of the oil.
An essential oil is the most concentrated carrier of the soul of the plant. Thus, to truly know an oil, we must endeavor to reveal to our conscious awareness the unique archetypal pattern within its soul structure. In Spiritual PhytoEssencing, this is accomplished through the identification, and subsequent inter-correlation, of synchronicities including essential oil/gemstone correspondences.
I have been in practice for close to 40 years and gemstones and gemstone elixirs have always been a part of that. My relationship with stones actually began much earlier when I was still in elementary school. In 4th grade I became a serious rock collector and spent many a Sunday afternoon in the gemstone gallery of Manhattan's American Museum of Natural History. I still have my boyhood rock collection and occasionally use some of those stones in my work.
The process of identifying a particular essential oil/gemstone synchronicity is a complex one that incorporates not just logical thought-driven research but also connection to spirit. The integrated operations of the four windows of knowing (sensing, feeling, thinking and connection to spirit) are required both to sustain cosmic consciousness (higher consciousness associated with the process of connecting one's inner spiritual self with the entire being of the natural universe) as well as the process of soul embodiment and the ongoing primacy of the real self in everyday consciousness. To be truly effective, any practitioner who aspires to soul-level healing work must ultimately be guided by spirit. This is a complex topic which is beyond the scope of this article. However, I will discuss it during the blending portion of the SPE/NHSS membership program.
Both gingergrass and palmarosa have an affinity for topaz in general. However, while gingergrass' most specific affinity is earthy brown topaz, palmarosa's is for heart-centered pink topaz.
The word topaz derives from the Sanskrit words nama tapas, meaning fire. The ancient Egyptians held that the topaz gained its color from the golden glow of their sun god Ra. This power was thought to make topaz amulets very powerful protectors against harm. Also, the Romans associated topaz with their sun god, Jupiter. Interestingly, the ultraviolet rays of sunlight displace electrons within the color centers in a topaz crystal and cause it to change color. Despite this alignment with the sun, mystics believe that the gemstone's protective and curative powers waxed and waned in accordance with the phases of the moon.
In terms of the chakras, topaz specifically helps draw off negativity from, and clear energy blockages in, the solar plexus (3rd), third eye (6th) and crown (7th) chakras. However, it essentially impacts all the activities of all the chakras. Topaz helps one let go of restrictive thought patterns and allow one to become more open, relaxed and amenable to listen to the input of others and to expand one's perspectives.
Gingergrass is associated with brown topaz. In general, the color brown, the color of soil, wood and various stones such as sandstone is associated with connection to Earth, nurturing, comfort, fertility, stability, grounding, security, wholesomeness, dependability, orderliness, the feeling of belonging and fitting in, steadfastness, simplicity and sound health.
Brown gemstones in general are associated with the themes of connection to the natural world, centering, grounding, comfort, nurturing, organization, order as opposed to chaos, decisiveness and Earth energy. Brown topaz encourages optimal choices based upon discernment and refinement. In this way, it can help reduces distrust, uncertainty and doubt, especially self-doubt. This gemstone builds inner strength and stability, self-confidence and commitment. It also supports stronger devotion in love and the capacity for developing lasting friendships.
Brown topaz may prove of good service for those who tend to be closed and distrust life. It is thought to have potential value in the treatment of agitation, restlessness, agoraphobia, timidity, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Via its supports of Chakra 1 (Root chakra), brown topaz increases inner strength, motivation and reduces feelings of insecurity. Sometimes referred to as the "Earth gem" it can provide unique benefit to farmers, gardeners, those who work with animals and conservationists.
Palmarosa oil is associated with pink topaz. On a psycho-spiritual level pink, the color associated with the energy of kindness and unconditional love pacifies and calms and so can be used to ameliorate anger aggression, irritation, over-sensitivity and feelings of neglect and otherwise promote emotional comfort and healing. As pink has been found to have a tranquilizing effect upon those prone to aggression and violence, it is often the paint color of choice in prisons, mental institutions, hospitals, and drug rehabilitation centers (it may help reduce the anxiety and suffering associated with withdrawal

Like the works of some of her contemporaries' novels, Jane Austen's 19th century writings are often referred to as realistic novels. Her books, such as Pride and Prejudice, use fiction to depict as closely as possible the day-to-day experiences of people in a particular time and social class. The characters in realistic novels are complex beings with multifaceted emotions who are faced with plausible, everyday challenges of their era and station in life. Other novelists of the 19th century whose works are classified in the realism category include George Eliot and Leo Tolstoy.

Literary realism is a branch of literature which set out to reflect society as it was, to get as close to the bone of real life as it could. It often depicts more humble or banal events than Romantic writers. So most of Jane Austen's novels are realist because they are fairly mundane; they depict fairly ordinary people, usually woman, doing fairly ordinary things. There are few locked room mysteries, no strange and mysterious happenings, or insane wives. The women do ordinary things like get married and the men are fairly ordinary men.
If you compare Pride and Prejudice to a novel like Jane Eyre, the differences become clear: no secret insane wives imprisoned in the home, no misplaced identities and no Byronic heroes.
In a way it could be described as less 'exciting' than Romantic novels but it is a truer reflection of society because it relies less on stylization and more on holding a mirror up to society.

Joseph Lincoln Steffens (April 6, 1866 – August 9, 1936) was an American journalist and one of the most famous practitioners of the journalistic style called muckraking. He is also known for his 1921 statement, upon his return from the Soviet Union: "I have been over into the future, and it works."
A better known version of his famous quote, "I've seen the future, and it works," can be found on the title page of the 1933 edition of Red Virtue, written by his wife, Ella Winter.
Steffens was born April 6, 1866, in San Francisco and grew up in Sacramento, California. He studied in France and Germany after graduating from the University of California, where he was first exposed to what were known then as "radical" political views.

INCREASE OF MERIT
Factors that increase a person's supernatural reward for good works performed in the state of grace. There are four such factors: 1. the degree of sanctifying grace in which a person does some morally good action; 2. the intensity of will with which an act is done; 3. the sublimity of the action performed; and 4. the purity of love or selflessness that animates the performance. Difficulties of themselves do not increase supernatural merit, but, provided that a difficulty is not culpable, it normally demands additional effort of will and thus indirectly adds to the merit derived from a morally good act done in the state of grace.

Registering Strategies
Intended for plugin developers as a way to make it easy to use
strategies there is the possibility to register a strategy without loading it.
 Authentication.register(:my_strategy, "/absolute/path/to/strategy.rb")
This then allows developers to use
Providing feedback to users (Error Messages)
There's at least 4 ways to provide feedback to users for failed logins.
 - Overwrite Merb::Authentication#error_message The return of this method is
 the default message that is passed to the Unauthenticated exception. Overwrite
 this to provide a very basic catch all message.
 - Provide a default message when you declare your before filter.
 before :ensure_authenticated, :with => [Openid, :message => "Could not log you in with open ID"]
 - OR
 before :ensure_authentication, :with => {:message => "Sorry Buddy… You Lose"}
 When you pass a message, it will replace the Merb::Authentication#error_message default for this
 - Use an after filter for your login action. This can be used to set your messaging system. For example:
 after :set_login_message, :only => [:create]
private def set_login_message if session.authenticated? flash[:message] = "Welcome" else flash[:error] = "Bad.. You Fail" end end
 - Use the authentications error messaging inside your strategies to set error messages there.
 You can add to these errors just like adding to DataMappers validation errors.
session.authentication.errors.add("Label", "You Fail")
Add as many as you like, ask session.authentication.errors.on(:label) to get specific errors etc Really… They're just like the DataMapper validation errors. The bonus of using this system is that you can add messages inside your Strategies, and then in your views you can do this:
<%= error_messages_for sessions.authentication %>
Additional checks / actions to perform after the user is found
Sometimes you may need to perform additional operations on the user object
after you have found a valid user in the strategy. There is a hook method
Merb::Authentication.after_authentication which is designed for this.
Here's an example of checking that a user object is active after it's been
Merb::Authentication.after_authentication do |user, request, params|? user : nil end
Pass the user model on if everything is still ok. Return nil if you decide in the
after_authentication hook that the user should in fact not be allowed to be authenticated.
By default this plugin doesn't actually
authenticate anything ;) It's up to you to get your model going, and add an
authentication strategy.
To logout use
session.abandon! and to force a login at any time use
raise Unauthenticated, "You Aren't Cool Enough"

sfDoctrineActAsSignablePlugin ============================= The 'sfDoctrineActAsSignablePlugin' plugin automates the handling of 'created_by' and 'updated_by' columns. Each time a __Signable__ object is inserted or updated, those columns are automatically updated accordingly to the user who saved the changes. Instalation =========== Install the plugin via the subversion repository by executing the following command from the project root directory: $ svn co _URL_ plugins/sfDoctrineActAsSignablePlugin or by using the default symfony plugin install command: $./symfony plugin:install sfDoctrineActAsSignablePlugin Usage ===== Add the desired columns to your schema.yml for the tables you want to be signed. You can use a string or an int type, the behavior will automatically detect the type and store the corresponding information depending on this type (for a string the username is stored, and for an integer it's the user's ID). # You can either set the type of a column to a string (will store the username) or an integer (will store the user ID) actAs: Signable: created: name: created_by type: integer options: notnull: true default: 1 updated: name: updated_by type: string Also you may use global behavior in your doctrine schema (default field value is integer): actAs: [Timestampable, Signable] Dependencies ============ There is no required dependency, although : * [sfDoctrineGuardPlugin](_URL_ will provide you basic but flexible and robust user management. Relations --------- The plugin is provided with behavior relations for __sfDoctrineGuardPlugin__. For created and updated options which are defined as active (__not disabled__) and __integer type__, __creator__ and __updator__ relations are available, respectively. This means, that if you attach Signable behavior (defined as mentioned above) to any of your model, you can directly access sfGuardUser class objects. For example, the _Article_ model is defined as follows: Article: actAs: Signable: ~ you can access the user who created/updated the Article (integer option is the default in the Signable): [php] echo $article->getCreator(); echo $article->getUpdator()->customMethod(); Example use cases ================= Here are some example cases when you may find this plugin useful: string user reference --------------------- The project includes a blog or a forum system. Each blog/forum post page needs to display the user who posted it (or modified it last time). The symfony forum screenshot last column shows LAST POST, user name is highlighted in red (__Singable__ behavior) and the timestamp is highlighted in green (__Timestampable__ behavior):![symfony forum](_URL_ "symfony forum") integer user reference ---------------------- The more advanced technique is to use an integer created_by/updated_by column (the default) to store the user's ID (need to have appropriate user table, e.g. [sfDoctrineGuardPlugin](_URL_ In this case you may use relations and fetch User object at runtime (which is very difficult if you store user name as a string). This option is very useful when developing a CRM or ERP system where data modification is important (could be combined with data versioning).

Cavity size and copper root pruning affect production and establishment of container-grown longleaf pine seedlingsAuthor(s): Mary Anne Sword Sayer; James D. Haywood; Shi-Jean Susana Sung
Source: Forest Science
Publication Series: Scientific Journal (JRNL)
PDF: Download Publication (677.0 KB)
DescriptionWith six container types, we tested the effects of cavity size (i.e., 60, 93, and 170 ml) and copper root pruning on the root system development of longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) seedlings grown in a greenhouse. We then evaluated root egress during a root growth potential test and assessed seedling morphology and root system development 1 year after planting in central Louisiana, USA. Seedling size was increased by copper root pruning in small cavities but was unaffected by this treatment in larger cavities. Before planting, copper root pruning increased taproot and secondary lateral root dry weights at the expense of primary lateral root dry weight and increased root growth potential in the top 5 cm of the root plug. Across treatments, survival was 97%, and all seedlings were in the grass stage. Of the lateral root dry weight that elongated during the first year after planting, 33% more occurred in the upper 5 cm of soil when seedlings were treated with copper. Within each cavity size, copper root pruning did not affect the general morphology of 1-year-old seedlings. However, relationships between root collar diameter and root egress by depth indicated that this treatment has the potential to increase the range of cavity sizes used for seedling production.

Durham University Parent-Infant Sleep Lab, with support from La Leche League, NCT, and UNICEF UK Baby Friendly Initiative, has launched a new website – Infant Sleep Information Source, or ISIS.
The website has been designed to provide parents and health professionals with clear, evidence-based information on 'normal' sleep, defining normal as "what is biologically expected for humans". It is hoped that this will help both parents who want to make informed choices about how their baby sleeps, and health professionals whose role is to support parents.
The website project is funded by a grant from the ESRC (Economic and Social Research Council) 'Follow-on Fund' to facilitate and support the translation of research conducted by UK and overseas researchers on issues regarding infant sleep (e.g. development, environments, safety) into an online informational resource.
The site contains information on:
- Why babies sleep the way they do
- Sleep development
- Sleep training
- Different sleeping environments
- Coping at night
- Research evidence

- Children inspired by yoga
Volcano Pose
If your child is about 4 years old or younger, they will learn new movements by looking at and copying others. Therefore it is best to do Volcano pose with your child or toddler so they can see what to do.
Volcano pose will give your own shoulders and chest a wonderful stretch too.
How to do volcano pose
 1. Find a clear space and encourage your toddler or child to stand opposite you.
 2. Together, curl up really small on the floor, as a 'sleeping volcano'.
 3. Sleep for a few seconds "1, 2, 3…" (count out loud with your child)
 4. Then, suddenly, ERUPT! Come up onto your knees and spread your arms out wide!
 5. Move from one knee to the other or gently twist from side to side to as your volcano continues to shower it's lava everywhere!
The benefits of volcano pose
1. Strengthen arm, leg & core muscles
The movements of this pose promote whole-body strength.
2. Improve balance skills
As you get up quickly up from the floor in volcano pose, you will challenge your balance skills, through stimulating your body senses i.e. your proprioceptive and your vestibular sense. These balance reactions are important not only for sporting activities like football or dance but also for sitting in a good position to write. Children develop mature balance skills at about seven years of age. If your child is younger they will largely be using their sight to keep their balance. It is by moving around and quickly changing position that children progress their abilities so they need not have to rely on looking so much to keep their balance. Unfortunately our own sense of balance slowly deteriorates as we age. We can help to control this by doing activities such as Volcano pose.
3. Gently stretch chest, shoulder & arm muscles
Volcano pose will give you both an opportunity to stretch out your arm, shoulder and chest muscles, just like our growing flower pose last week. Remember this type of pose is great for your child after they have been sitting down for a while.
4. Let off steam!
The explosive movement of volcano pose allows your child to express their emotions. Hence this activity will make a great 'movement break' if your child is getting frustrated with a complex task or problem. Be careful though, do not do the pose too many times as then your child may then find it hard to calm down!
5. Develop imagination & creativity
As your child imagines what shape and colour their volcano will be, they will use their imagination & develop their creative skills. You might ask some questions to help fire their imagination further:
 1. What is the weather like at the top of your volcano today?
 2. Can you see the horizon from up there? What is the landscape around your volcano?
A more challenging volcano pose
If your child is older, guide them to start by squatting on the balls of their feet as a 'sleeping volcano'. Then quickly come up into standing to erupt!
Try to encourage your child to do this without putting their hands on the ground to further refine their balance skills.
Calming down after volcano pose
Volcano is an energising pose! Sometimes children can find it difficult to calm down after their volcano has 'erupted'. Help counteract this by suggesting that your volcano goes back to sleep.
 1. Show your child how to use their hands to push/stroke firmly downwards along their body & limbs as 'flowing lava'. This will provide a calming and regulating deep touch, stimulating their proprioceptive sense.
 2. Move slowly from a high, volcano pose back down into a curled-up, dormant volcano pose (similar to mouse pose).
 3. Suggest to your child that their dormant volcano is now being squashed under a heavy rock and encourage them to imagine this by squeezing themselves into a tight ball.

Convert Circular thou to ha (Circular thou to Hectare)
Circular thou into Hectare
 numbers in scientific notation
Direct link to this calculator:
How many Hectare make 1 Circular thou?
1 Circular thou = 0.000 000 000 000 050 670 75 Hectare [ha] - Measurement calculator that can be used to convert Circular thou to Hectare, among others.
Convert Circular thou to Hectare (Circular thou to ha):
With this calculator, it is possible to enter the value to be converted together with the original measurement unit; for example, '844 Circular thou'. In so doing, either the full name of the unit or its abbreviation can be used. Then, the calculator determines the category of the measurement unit of measure that is to be converted, in this case 'Area'. After that, it converts the entered value into all of the appropriate units known to it. In the resulting list, you will be sure also to find the conversion you originally sought. Alternatively, the value to be converted can be entered as follows: '21 Circular thou to ha' or '37 Circular thou into ha' or '5 Circular thou -> Hectare' or '50 Circular thou = ha' or '62 Circular thou to Hectare' or '12 Circular thou into Hectare'. For this alternative, the calculator also figures out immediately into which unit the original value is specifically to be converted. Regardless which of these possibilities one uses, it saves one the cumbersome search for the appropriate listing in long selection lists with myriad categories and countless supported units. All of that is taken over for us by the calculator and it gets the job done in a fraction of a second.
Furthermore, the calculator makes it possible to use mathematical expressions. As a result, not only can numbers be reckoned with one another, such as, for example, '(94 * 4) Circular thou'. But different units of measurement can also be coupled with one another directly in the conversion. That could, for example, look like this: '844 Circular thou + 2532 Hectare' or '23mm x 71cm x 16dm =? cm^3'. The units of measure combined in this way naturally have to fit together and make sense in the combination in question.

wikiHow to Make a Concrete Vase
Three Parts:Preparing the Mold and ConcretePouring the ConcreteFinishing the VaseCommunity Q&A
Concrete vases may appear plain and simple, but they can create a beautiful contrast against the delicate, colorful flowers you put into them. They can be expensive to buy, but luckily, they are cheap and easy to make. Once you know the basics, you can experiment with all sorts of different shapes and sizes.
Part 1
Preparing the Mold and Concrete
 1. 1
 Cut a large plastic bottle down to the height you want. Choose a large plastic bottle that you want to use as the base of your vase. Use a craft blade to cut the top portion off. This will not only make inserting the smaller bottle easier, but pouring the cement in as well.[1]
 2. 2
 Choose a smaller plastic bottle for the inside of you vase. The bottle needs to be small enough to fit inside the larger bottle with at least ½-inch (1.27-centimeter) of space between the two.[2] If the bottle has a label on it, be sure to remove it first, otherwise, it will show up on the finished vase.
 3. 3
 Mix the concrete in a plastic tub or bucket. Follow the instructions on the container as each brand will be a little different. In most cases, you will need to stir 1 part water into 4 parts of cement.[3] You can use a paint stick or even a trowel to mix the concrete.
 - Always wear gloves and protective goggles while mixing concrete.[4]
 4. 4
 Consider adding some color for a marbled effect. This works great with white concrete. Scoop out some of your concrete into a separate container. Stir in some pigment into it until evenly combined. Pour the white concrete into the dyed concrete. Stir it a few times until it starts to look marbled and swirly.[5]
 - Make sure that you are using concrete-appropriate pigments. If they are not sold alongside the concrete in the store, you will need to buy them online.
Part 2
Pouring the Concrete
 1. 1
 Fill the bottle ½ to ¾ of the way with concrete. Pour the concrete in slowly so as to minimize air bubbles. Don't worry if the concrete doesn't fill your large bottle all the way. The next couple of steps will fix that.
 2. 2
 Tap the bottle against your work surface. This will remove any air bubbles and make the surface of your vase smoother in the end.[6] Keep in mind that the finished product may still have some air bubbles. This is perfectly normal and part of the beauty of concrete.
 3. 3
 Push a smaller bottle down into the concrete. Do not push it all the way to the bottom of the vase, however. As you push the bottle into the cement, the cement will raise and fill the rest of the big bottle.[7] If the concrete overflows, simply brush it away.[8] Try not to get any concrete into the smaller bottle.
 4. 4
 Add more concrete, if necessary. If the concrete level isn't high enough, use a spoon to scoop more concrete into the large bottle. Keep doing this until the bottle is filled.[9] Once again, avoid getting any concrete into the small bottle.
 5. 5
 Smooth out the concrete, if desired. Wet your finger, then use it to smooth down the concrete between the two bottles. You can also leave it as it is for a more jagged, rustic touch.[10]
Part 3
Finishing the Vase
 1. 1
 Let the concrete dry. How long this takes depends on what type of cement you used. Quick-set concrete can dry in as little as 15 minutes.[11] Other types can take up to 3 to 5 hours, or even longer.[12] Refer to the package your concrete came in for more specific drying times.
 2. 2
 Remove the outer plastic bottle. Once the concrete is solid, use a craft blade to slice down the side of the plastic bottle. Tear it away in strips, revealing the concrete vase.[13] You may have to use pliers to pull the plastic away from the concrete.[14]
 3. 3
 Cut down the inner plastic bottle, if necessary. You may have portions of the small, inner plastic bottle sticking out of the concrete. This needs to go. Use a craft blade to cut the smaller bottle down until it is flush with the top of the vase.[15] Do not remove the plastic bottle. If you do, the concrete vase may absorb too much water.
 4. 4
 Let the concrete dry further, if necessary. After you remove the concrete from the bottle, it may still feel a little damp. Set it some place where it will not be disturbed, and allow it to dry completely.
 5. 5
 Consider painting your vase. You can paint it a solid color, or you can paint designs onto it, such as strips or spots. Painting the bottom of your vase a soft pastel color will look very chic![16] You don't have to do this, but it's a great way to make you vase look more interesting!
 6. 6
 Add some felt pads to the bottom of your vase to protect your furniture. You don't have to do this, but it would be a good idea if you plan on keeping your vase on surface on delicate or fragile surfaces. Simply turn your vase over, then stick 3 to 4 felt circles to the underside.[17]
 7. 7
 Use your vase. You can use your vase to display fresh or silk flowers. If you use real flowers, fill the inner vase with water. The plastic, glass, or metal will create a barrier, and prevent the concrete from absorbing all the water.

 - You can use a cardboard mailing tube or a milk carton instead of a large, plastic bottle. Be sure to spray the inside with cooking spray first, however; this will make it easier to remove it later.[18]
 - You can use glass or metal candle votive instead of a small, plastic bottle for the inner vase.
 - If you are using a metal candle votive for the inner vase, push it in so that only the top ¼-inch (0.64-centimeter) is exposed. This will give your vase an element of design.[19]
 - If you used a glass candle votive, wipe the rim with a damp towel after the concrete starts to set up. This will prevent it from looking foggy or cloudy.[20]
 Things You'll Need

The aim of this paper is to obtain new necessary and sufficient conditions for the uniform exponential stability of variational difference equations with applications to robustness problems. We prove characterizations for exponential stability of variational difference equations using translation invariant sequence spaces and
emphasize the importance of each hypothesis. We introduce a new concept of stability radius for a variational system of difference equations with respect to a perturbation structure and deduce a very general estimate for the lower bound of. All the results are obtained without any restriction concerning the coefficients, being applicable for any system of variational difference equations.


text: This work develops a grid based rainfall-runoff model (GRM), which is a physically based and spatially distributed model. Surface flow was analyzed using a kinematic wave model with the governing equations discretized using the finite volume method (FVM). This paper suggests a grid network flow analysis technique using variable rainfall intensity according to the flow directions to analyze one-dimensional flows between the grids. The model was evaluated by applying it to the Wuicheon watershed, a tributary of the Nakdonggang (Riv.), in Korea. The results showed that the grid-based, one-dimensional kinematic wave model adopted the FVM and the grid network flow analysis technique well. The simulation results showed good agreement with the observed hydrographs and the initial soil saturation ratio was most sensitive to the modeling results.

Why female fertility specialists are a better choice than male gynecologists?
Almost all women want their check up to be done by female gynecologists. It is because one feels more comfortable when he or she is diagnosed with a doctor of the same sex. That is the reason why an IVF Centre in Punjab takes into consideration the aspect of getting the patient treated with a doctor of the same sex. But when it comes to male infertility, even male candidates sometimes prefer undergoing check-up from female candidates. It is because of the tender nature of females that patients want to get treated from them.
Subsequent are the major points of why patients prefer going to female fertility specialists.
 - Comfort Zone
It is like females that they feel more comfortable deliberating about their reproductive health to another woman. This is because the session with the gynecologists does not only involve the dialogue about the problem. It may take place that the gynecologists or obstetricians may need to physically or manually examine your reproductive parts. The females are generally uncomfortable in exposing their intimate parts to a male gynecologist or obstetrician.
The deliberation session also includes the dialogue bout sex and sex-positions. The female may feel shy or embarrassed while discussing so. Consequently, she will not be able to deliver the required information to the doctor
 - Understanding Level
It is quite obvious being a female, a female gynecologist will be able to address the problem of female patients by understanding its impact on the physical as well as the mental health of the woman. Once in a while, it takes place that the female is not able to tell the problem in a precise way. If a female gynecologist is inspecting that patient then she would be able to guess the problem because of the same-sex understanding characteristic. Moreover, it is relevant to mention here that no matter the patient is taking consultation from a same-sex doctor or an opposite-sex doctor, it takes at least 2 to 3 visits for the patient to open completely and build up an understanding level.
What are the main factors which make one consider that choice of a female gynecologist for reproductive problems is the best?
 - Refer to specialists
Once in a while, patients do consider this fact while choosing a gynecologist. Patients are likely to pick the choice of female gynecologists because they tend to refer the case of the patient to a specialized doctor as compared to the male gynecologist.
 - Miscarriage and Abortion
Female doctors are more likely to handle the cases of miscarriages and abortion with tenderness. These are the most critical times in the lives of women. It's quite obvious that female candidates are more likely to be better handled by female specialists.
 - Prescription of Medications
Female fertility experts tend not to prescribe the medication at the early stage than male gynecologists.
Final Thoughts
Not every time, a woman feels comfortable with the female specialist. Once in a while, it happens that female patients feel more comfortable with a particular male fertility specialist.

Collaborate vs. Corroborate – What's the Difference?
When you work together with people toward a shared goal, are you corroborating with them, or collaborating with them?
Likewise, what are you doing when you confirm someone else's telling of events with your own account of what happened?
If you cannot decide which word refers to which scenario, you are not alone. All writers misuse words, and collaborate and corroborate are easy words to confuse. They sound very similar, and they are not commonly used verbs.
Still, they refer to different activities, and cannot be freely substituted for each other. You should be careful to use words intentionally whenever you write—and especially so when writing for professional or academic situations. These are the instances where collaborate and corroborate are more likely to be used anyway.
What is the Difference Between Collaborate and Corroborate?
In this post, I will compare collaborate vs. corroborate. I will use each word in example sentences to illustrate its proper use and context.
Plus, I will outline a mnemonic that you can use to decide whether collaborate or corroborate is the word you actually mean to use in your sentence.
When to Use Collaborate
collaborate versus corroborate What does collaborate mean? Collaborate is a verb. It means to work together on a project or activity.
For example,
 - "I would love to collaborate with my favorite author on my new novel, but my favorite author is dead," said the writer.
 - "Collaboration begets innovation!" Sue reminded her coworkers.
 - The effort to collaborate with and interact with a wider segment of Americans beyond D.C. politicians and staffers is essential, both to bring new ideas into the Beltway and to encourage private efforts in lieu of or to supplement public initiatives. –The Washington Post
When to Use Corroborate
Definition of corroborate definition and definition of collaborate definition What does corroborate mean? Corroborate is a also verb that means to confirm or verify, as if by outside, confirming evidence. Corroborate often appears in legal and scientific contexts.
For example,
 - "Security footage from the casino corroborates the suspect's story," said the investigator.
 - "Our findings are corroborated by a wide body of existing literature," said the researcher.
 - My plea of innocence was corroborated by eyewitness accounts that the robbery was actually committed by a flying robot.
 - Sergey Betov, a Belarussian doubles specialist, was first found to bear no fault or negligence in April, after the low concentration of meldonium in his sample was shown to corroborate his account of having last taken meldonium in October. –The New York Times
Trick to Remember the Difference
Define corroborate and define collaborate Here is a helpful trick to remember corroborate vs. collaborate.
Collaborate and corroborate are both verbs, but they mean different things. If you notice that the word collaborate contains the word labor, it should be easy to remember that collaborate means to work together. This way, you will always know which verb to choose.
Is it collaborate or corroborate? Many English users confuse these words because they sound so similar. However, there are no contexts in which they are interchangeable, and you must be careful to use the correct one when you write.
 - Collaborate and corroborate are both verbs.
 - To collaborate is to work together on something.
 - To corroborate is to confirm or support something with evidence.
One easy way to keep these words straight in your mind is by noticing that the word collaborate contains the word labor. Since collaborate means to work together and labor is a synonym of work, remembering when to choose collaborate is as simple as looking at its spelling.
In summary,
 - Collaborate means to work together.
 - Corroborate means to confirm with supporting evidence.

When to use eloquent upserts
You've probably come across a situation before where you needed to do some kind of mass update or sync with external data. A naive way you might approach this could be similar to below.
collect($csvContacts)->each(function (array $row) {
 $contact = Contact::updateOrCreate(
 ['email' => $row['email']],
 ['name' => $row['name'], 'address' => $row['address']]
Under the hood, this will make 2 queries for each record. First, it will find the first row matching all of the key/value pairs in the first array. If a row already exists, it will update it, otherwise a new row is inserted.
With small imports this will work fine, but imagine you had 100,000 rows in your CSV. This would result in 200,000 queries, which is going to take forever.
Using Upserts
When using upserts a single query is made containing all the rows. This query includes on duplicate key update on MySQL and on conflict... do update set on Postgres which instructs the database to update records if they already exist in the database.
It's important to note that you must have either a primary or unique index on the column you are upserting on the database. If you forget to add the index you'll get an error.
Obviously, making a single query is much more efficient and lets the database internally compute duplicate rows (which is very quick since you have an index on the column).
It's also a good idea to chunk these queries into blocks, especially if your queries are inserting/updating lots of data. If you don't do this, you may hit query size limits on some databases.
 ->map(function (array $row) {
 return Arr::only($row, ['email', 'name', 'address']);
 ->each(function (Collection $chunk) {
 Contact::upsert($chunk, 'email');

What Does Bridge the Gap Mean?
Bridge the Gap Meaning
Definition: To connect things in a logical way; to have qualities of two different things; to fill in a space between two things.
Essentially, at its minimal meaning, bridge the gap means to diminish the differences between two things. This can be by adding something intermediary, as in, "Scholarships were provided to bridge the gap between students with money and students without money." or it can mean to find an existing similarity between the two, as in, "Their love of brownies bridged the gap between the two people who otherwise hated each other."
Origin of Bridge the Gap
meaning of bridge the gapBridge comes from the Old English brycgian, which means to make a causeway. Gap is an early 14th-century word meaning an opening in a wall, a break, a breach.
The broader meaning of unfilled space or interval, any hiatus or interruption didn't come about until around 1600, and it is likely that the metaphorical meaning of bridge the gap did not come about until after this—not until after the version to stop a gap was popular. Stop a gap, later stopgap, was something contrived to meet an urgent need or emergency.
The earliest newspaper examples of the idiom as seen today were not until the late-1800s, with a May 1888 issue of The Pacific commercial advertiser reading,
 - Two hundred and seven circulating planetary bodies bridge the gap between Jupiter and Mars, the complete investigation of the movements of any of which would overtask the energies of a life-time.
Examples of Bridge the Gap
bridge the gap meaningIn the modern day, this idiom is used in casual conversations as well as in business conversations.
In its most literal meaning, people may say,
 - They are planning to bridge the gap with a 40 foot-long structure this spring.
If there is a noticeable and problematic difference between two things, one could say,
 - They will bridge the gap between German speakers and non-German speakers by providing a translator.
 - The knowledge gap between those at the top and those at the bottom can only be solved through a change in education.
More Examples
 - Bridging the gap between old and young will not be easy, and is clearly not something the Government can do: no one wants the state telling families how they should live. –The Telegraph
 - We wanted to bridge the gap [between healthy and filling food] and create a palate-satisfying hearty meal that wasn't heavy. The result? An 85% plant-based menu sprinkled with enough animal protein to feed the soul. –Ocean Drive
To bridge the gap is to connect two otherwise unrelated things by adding something or by finding common ground.

Its source is a Latin expression meaning "Soldier."
The name Myles ranked 295th in popularity for males of all ages in a sample of 2000-2003 Social Security Administration statistics and 813th in popularity for males of all ages in a sample of the 1990 US Census.
Though this name appears on the 1990 U.S. Census lists, it is used by only a small percentage of the general population.
Latin may be the source of the Germanic form, Milo, that this name assumed in the Middle Ages. Nothing is certain about this derivation, however, and speculation on the ultimate source ranges from the Hebrew name Michael to the Slovonic name element mil (grace).

This article examines the experience of stateless people in Thailand and how they overcome the problem of stigma. In 2020, there were 480,000 people in Thailand classified as stateless. They are individuals who migrated from neighboring countries and who settled mainly along the border with Myanmar. They are mostly members of hill tribes (such as the Akha, Lahu, Hmong, Lisu, Yao) with distinct languages and culture. They do not have Thai identification cards (IDs), which are required to access public services, including health care and higher levels of education, apply for professional jobs, and sell property.
The authors define stigma as "a negative social attitude attached to a characteristic of an individual who may be regarded as having a mental, physical, or social deficiency." The authors employ the framework integrating normative influence on stigma (FINIS), which has three layers: a microlayer focusing on individual characteristics; a mesolayer focusing on family and community contexts; and a macrolayer focusing on the stigma embedded in a larger national cultural context.
The analysis is based on data from qualitative and in-depth interviews with 51 stateless individuals living in five remote hill tribe villages along the border with Myanmar. Sixty-nine percent of the participants were female, 67 percent had no education, 57 percent were farmers, and the participants had a median monthly income of US$93.
- There are various ways in which stigma affects the lives of stateless people. They find it difficult to request assistance and assert themselves (e.g. in a healthcare setting) because they fear mistreatment or drawing attention to themselves. They experience unequal treatment and are treated more poorly than Thai citizens and other hill tribe people who have acquired Thai IDs. They feel that they have limited options for improving their lives.
- Avoidance, trying to get a Thai ID, and practicing speaking Thai are ways in which stateless people cope with stigma. The stateless population reported several approaches to handling stigma, mainly by avoidance, for example not traveling outside their village, not talking with people with whom they are not familiar and keeping track of events that could result in exposure. Trying to get a Thai ID and practicing speaking Thai were other strategies employed to cope with stigma.
- Participants expressed their single goal of obtaining a Thai ID to help them overcome problems of stigma.

We present here the construction and application of a compact benchtop time-resolved Kerr magnetometer to measure the magnetization precession in magnetic thin films and lithographically patterned elements. As opposed to very expensive femtosecond lasers this system is built upon a picosecond pulsed injection diode laser and electronic pulse and delay generators. The precession is triggered by the electronic pulses of controlled duration and shape, which is launched onto the sample by a microstrip line. We used polarized optical pulses synchronous to the electronic pulses to measure the magneto-optical Kerr rotation. The system is integrated in a conventional upright microscope configuration with separate illumination, imaging, and magneto-optical probe paths. The system offers high stability, relative ease of alignment, sample changing, and a long range of time delay. We demonstrate the measurements of time-resolved dynamics of a Permalloy microwire and microdot using this system, which showed dynamics at two different time scales.

text: This paper concerns covariance matrix based spectrum sensing over frequency selective channels. The impact of frequency selective channels on the covariance matrix of received signals is analyzed in frequency domain and it is shown that the phases of channel spectra degrade the performance of covariance matrix based detectors. To overcome this problem, we propose a new detector which employs only the magnitude spectra of received signals and thereby achieves considerable performance gain. Theoretical performance, in terms of the false-alarm and detection probabilities of the proposed detector, is analyzed. Simulation results verify our theoretical analyses and demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed detector.

I need to detect the Sun from the space sky.
These are examples of the input images:
I've got such results after Morphologic filtering ( open operation for twice )
Here's the algorithm code of this processing:
// Color to Gray
cvCvtColor(image, gray, CV_RGB2GRAY);
// color threshold
// Morphologic open for 2 times
cvMorphologyEx( gray, dst, NULL, CV_SHAPE_RECT, CV_MOP_OPEN, 2);
Isn't it too heavy processing for such a simple task? And how to find the center of the Sun? If I find white points, than I'll find white points of big Earth ( left top corner on first example image )
Please advise me please my further action to detect the Sun.
Trying algorithm of getting centroid by formula : {x,y} = {M10/M00, M01/M00}
CvMoments moments;
cvMoments(dst, &moments, 1);
double m00, m10, m01;
m00 = cvGetSpatialMoment(&moments, 0,0);
m10 = cvGetSpatialMoment(&moments, 1,0);
m01 = cvGetSpatialMoment(&moments, 0,1);
// calculating centroid
float centroid_x = m10/m00;
float centroid_y = m01/m00;
 cvCircle( image,
 cvPoint(cvRound(centroid_x), cvRound(centroid_y)),
 50, CV_RGB(125,125,0), 4, 8,0);
And where Earth is in the photo, I got such a result:
So, centroid is on the Earth. :(
Trying cvHoughCircles:
CvMemStorage* storage = cvCreateMemStorage(0);
CvSeq* circles = cvHoughCircles(dst, storage, CV_HOUGH_GRADIENT, 12,
 dst->width/2, 255, 100, 0, 35);
if ( circles->total > 0 ) {
 // getting first found circle
 float* circle = (float*)cvGetSeqElem( circles, 0 );
 // Drawing:
 // green center dot
 cvCircle( image, cvPoint(cvRound(circle[0]),cvRound(circle[1])),
 3, CV_RGB(0,255,0), -1, 8, 0 );
 // wrapping red circle
 cvRound(circle[2]), CV_RGB(255,0,0), 3, 8, 0 );
First example: bingo, but the second - no ;(
I've tried different configuration of cvHoughCircles() - couldn't find configuration to fit every my example photo.
matchTemplate approach worked for me ( response of mevatron ). It worked with big number of tests.

How about trying a simple matchTemplate approach. I used this template image:
enter image description here
And, it detected the 3 out of 3 of the sun images I tried: enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here
This should work due to the fact that circles (in your case the sun) are rotationally invariant, and since you are so far away from the sun it should be roughly scale invariant as well. So, template matching will work quite nicely here.
Finally, here is the code that I used to do this:
_TAG_
_TAG_
_TAG_
_TAG_
using namespace cv;
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
 /// Load image and template
 string inputName = "sun2.png";
 string outputName = "sun2_detect.png";
 Mat img = imread( inputName, 1 );
 Mat templ = imread( "sun_templ.png", 1 );
 /// Create the result matrix
 int result_cols = img.cols - templ.cols + 1;
 int result_rows = img.rows - templ.rows + 1;
 Mat result( result_cols, result_rows, CV_32FC1 );
 /// Do the Matching and Normalize
 matchTemplate(img, templ, result, CV_TM_CCOEFF);
 Point maxLoc;
 minMaxLoc(result, NULL, NULL, NULL, &maxLoc);
 rectangle(img, maxLoc, Point( maxLoc.x + templ.cols, maxLoc.y + templ.rows ), Scalar(0, 255, 0), 2);
 imshow("img", img);
 imshow("result", result);
 imwrite(outputName, img);
 return 0;
Hope you find that helpful!

Actually, the reasons this is working are different from the mentioned ones. For a starter, there is nothing resembling the used template anywhere else in these images. Also, this is much more likely to be several times slower than the initial morphological approach. – mmgp Dec 17 '12 at 23:43
Good points indeed :) However, since I was assuming the space ship is in our solar system, I believe it's safe to say only one Sun will show up :D – mevatron Jan 24 '13 at 15:40
I guess this would fail if any part of the HUD (the pilot user interface) gets on top of the sun. Unless the template matching gives a score on how good the match is, that way you could threshold the top results and it would probably work with some obstructions. – Rui Marques Feb 25 at 16:36
Color Segmentation Approach
Do a color segmentation on the images to identify objects on the black background. You may identify the sun according to its area (given this uniquely identifies it, resp. don't varies largely accross images). A more sophisticated approach could compute image moments, e.g. hu moments of the objects. See this page for these features.
Use a classification algorithm of your choice to do the actual classification of the objects found. The most simple approach is to manually specify thresholds, resp. value ranges that turn out to work for all(most) of your object/image combinations.
You may compute the actual position from the raw moments, as for the circular sun the position is equal to the center of mass
Centroid: {x, y } = { M10/M00, M01/M00 }
Edge Map Approach
Another option would be a circle hough transformation of the edge map, this will hopefully return some candidate circles (by position and radius). You may select the sun-circle according to the radius you expect (if you are lucky there is at most one).

I think with image moments it won't work. If there will be only the sun on the screen - than, the center of the Sun is Centroid point. But if Earth takes some screen's part (like in image #1 top left), than this part is "heavier" than Sun and Centroid will be shifted. I've tried with CircleHough, and it doesn't work for all my example photos... – Innuendo Nov 22 '11 at 0:31
I've updated my questions - examples were added – Innuendo Nov 22 '11 at 1:14
A simple addition to your code is to filter out objects based on their size. If you always expect the earth to be much bigger than the sun, or the sun to have almost the same area in each picture, you can filter it by area.
Try Blob detector for this task.
And note that it may be good to apply a morphological opening/closing instead of simple erode or dilate, so your sun will have almost the same area before and after processing.

thanx, i think it would be usefull for me, but my openCv build doesn't have blob detector, and I'm novice in C++ (i won't be able to compile the newest version) – Innuendo Nov 22 '11 at 20:40
Take the latest OpenCV from sourceforge sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary And to use it is as simple as the increment operator :) It's already compiled. And.. did you add using namespace cv? How don't you have the blob detector? – sammy Nov 23 '11 at 6:50

Beinecke Library Construction Photographs, _PHONE_
Documenting the construction of the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, this collection of photographs captures the transient stages of a massive, three year project.
One of the largest buildings in the world devoted entirely to rare books and manuscripts, the library was designed to have room in the central tower for 180,000 volumes and in the underground book stacks for over 600,000 volumes; it now contains well over 500,000 volumes and several million manuscripts.
The building, of Vermont marble and granite, bronze and glass, was designed by Gordon Bunshaft, of the firm of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill; the George A. Fuller Construction Company of Hamden, Connecticut was the general contractor. Work began on the building in 1960 and was completed in 1963. The white, gray-veined marble panes of the exterior are one and one-quarter inches thick and are framed by light gray Vermont granite. These marble panels filter light so that rare materials can be displayed without damage from harmful ultraviolet light. From the exterior, however, the building's powerful stone geometry serves to dominate the space it occupies in Hewitt University Quadrangle, amidst neo-Classical and neo-Gothic neighbors.
The building and its endowment are the gift of Edwin J. Beinecke, Yale 1907; Frederick W. Beinecke, Yale 1909; Walter Beinecke, Yale 1910; and their families.

Queued Documents
When you print a letter, it goes to the Queued Documents. Letters can be printed from Mailing Lists, Letter Templates, and Communication Plans. The Queued Documents view shows you all the letters that are scheduled to be printed (Print Queue) and those that have already been printed (Recent Jobs). Here's how you'd handle printing a one-page letter that you're sending to a 50-person mailing list:
 1. You send the job to Queued Documents.
 2. You find the job in Queued Documents and decide to print the job from a PDF.
 3. A 50-page PDF containing the copies of the letter you're sending to each recipient is downloaded to your computer.
 4. You open up the PDF and print it from there.
 5. You then go to Recent Jobs, locate the job, and print envelopes for the letters you just printed.
Queued Documents
Here's where you'll find all pending print jobs.
 1. Filter the list to show jobs from certain people, certain templates, and/or certain layouts. For example, you could choose to show all jobs sent by you with the Acceptance Letter template using the Grad-Arts Acceptance Layout.
 2. Choose whether you want to print from a PDF or ODT. You can print each job one-at-a-time using the individual PDF or ODT links or, if all of the jobs have the same layout, print all the jobs at the same time (Print All Selected...).
 3. The print job disappears from the list as soon as you print it. Populi generates a single document that's downloaded to your computer that you can then print.
 - If you print a single job, then the document will only contain the pages from that job.
 - If you use a Print All Selected... button, the document will contain all the pages from all of the jobs shown in the filter. Remember, this only works if all of the jobs have the same layout!
Recent Jobs (printing envelopes and mailing labels)
In Recent Jobs, you can print envelopes and mailing labels as well as re-print previous jobs. The print jobs remain here for seven calendar days. Here's how to do those things:
 1. To re-print a job, click either the PDF or ODT link. This generates a document that's downloaded to your computer...
 2. To print envelopes or mailing labels, click under Print Envelopes.
 3. Select the layout and format you wish to use.
 4. Click Print when you're ready. This generates a file that's downloaded to your computer...

Usually, when you want to wake up your Mac, you simply click on your mouse or hit a key on the keyboard. However, there are times when your Mac is out of reach and you need to wake it up. So what can you do?
You can easily wake up your Mac using a technology called Wake on LAN, which can be found in OS X's System Preferences. I won't go into the details of the technology; I'll only tell you that it uses a network diagram called a magic packet. Generally, this is done to wake one Mac with another on the same network, but this can also be used with other devices that can send a magic packet, such as an iPhone.
First, you'll need to set up your Mac to be woken up using WOL. Follow the steps below to set up your Mac to be woken up wirelessly:
1. Open System Preferences via the Apple Menu.
2. In the Energy Saver section, navigate to the "Power Adaptor" tab. Here, enable the option to "Wake for Network Access."
3. Now, put your Mac to sleep via the Apple menu:
So, now that your Mac is ready, here's how to wake up your Mac via your iPhone:
2. Once Fing has downloaded, open it from your iPhone's home screen.
3. Your connected network should automatically show up, similar to the screenshot below:
4. Select the device that you want to wake up using WOL. In this case, the device is My Macbook Air. Tap on it.
5. Scroll down and select the option to 'Wake On Lan'. This should wake up your Mac, provided it's currently sleeping.
This may not be visible because using the WOL protocol to wake a Mac this way does not necessarily wake the devices display to the standard locked login screen which greets a Mac user if they were to hit a sleeping Mac's spacebar. Instead, the display typically stays black, but the hardware is awake and active, able to receive network connections, pings, and whatever else you want to do with the machine. This is most useful if you want your device to be on and ready as you enter your home so that you don't have to wait.
Do you have any problems or issues? Feel free to ask them in the comments below; we'll try to solve your issue.
