"The PAR or Philippine Area of Responsibility was plotted by PAGASA so that our National Weather Office would have an exact area to monitor for weather disturbances. Once a weather disturbance becomes to near the borders of the PAR or crosses it, it could become a national or provincial issue of safety.
Some weather disturbances affecting our neighboring countries may pass near our territory but they are not declared as a threat to the people since they are not within the PAR. The duration of storms, low pressure areas, and tropical depressions are also monitored by checking if they are still within the PAR or how close they are to crossing the outermost borders of the PAR.
You must remember that even if it is called Philippine Area of Responsibility, there are portions of that overlap with the areas of responsibility of other countries such as Japan, Malaysia, Palau, and Taiwan. There are also Philippine territories that are not included in the PAR and that is the southernmost parts of Tawi-Tawi."

Uniqueness in Interchange
In order to process message flows in a coherent and predictable manner, Interchange enforces the uniqueness of object names.
Unique object names
In order to configure Interchange, you create objects and assign values to attributes of these objects.
As a general rule, each object that you create in the Interchange interface must have a unique name.
Object creation: If you try to create an object with a name that already exists, Interchange displays a message informing you of the naming conflict and instructing you to enter a unique name.
Object importing: If you import an object or set of objects with a name that is already used in a configuration, the importer executes one of the following actions to insure uniqueness:
 - ignore - ignores the imported object and conserves the existing object
 - replace - replaces the existing object with the imported version of the object
 - update - modifies the existing object by adding, deleting or revaluing attributes from the imported object
Upgrades: If you upgrade from a previous version, the upgrade logic never deletes previous data. When the upgrade logic detects or must generate a potentially duplicated object, it automatically renames the duplicates with unique names. In some cases it may also have to disable the renamed object to conserve the functional uniqueness of the configuration.

2 runners(Alice, Bob) are running on the oval track at a constant speed. The tracklength is 200 meters.
First Alice ran with such low speed that Bob passed him every 2 minutes. To run faster than Bob, Alice sped up 2 times and now she is passing him every 6 minutes. What speed did Bob ran at in km/h?
How much was Bob faster than Alice at first speed?
1/30h is 2 minutes x km/h * 1/30h = 0.2km x = 6km/h
How much was Alice faster than Bob at second speed?
1/10h is 6 minutes 2x km/h * 1/10h = 0.2km x = 1km/h
Don't know how to create equation out of this.


How To Identify a Means of Egress
2. Identify: If the tactic of using observation to ascertain the location of a means of egress is unsuccessful, please execute this more advanced protocol.
a. Attempt to use logic to identify the means of egress. For example, anything that is transparent is most likely a window. This is a means of egress, but not the preferred one (See step 3).
b. If the previous effort is unsuccessful, look for these telltale signs a surface is a means of egress:
i. It has a knob
ii. It has a hinge
iii. It is in a frame
iv. It has a sign indicating that it is a means of egress
c. If you remain unable to deduce a means of egress, proceed to step 3.

How come there's create() and create_new()?
asked 2014-11-25 09:58:57 -0500
kate_r gravatar image
I'm somewhat confused about the naming scheme for instance creation. In ThreadManager, create() raises NotImplementedError whereas there's a method create_new() which creates a new thread. In TagManager, there's create() but no create_new(). So what are the intended differences between create() and create_new()?

Manage network configurations using the account console (E2)
The account console for E2 accounts is in Public Preview.
This article describes a process that is available only for accounts on the E2 version of the Databricks platform. All new Databricks accounts and most existing accounts are now E2. If you are unsure which account type you have, contact your Databricks representative.
By default, Databricks creates a VPC in your AWS account for each workspace and creates new Databricks Runtime clusters in it. If you are on the E2 version of the Databricks platform, you have the option to create workspaces in your own VPC, known as a customer-managed VPC. This article describes how to use the account console to create and manage network configurations for your account when you want to use a customer-managed VPC. To learn how to create network configurations using the Account API, see Create a new workspace using the Account API.
Using your own VPC enables you to configure it according to your organization's enterprise cloud standards while still conforming to Databricks requirements. You cannot migrate an existing workspace to your own VPC.
Create a network configuration
To create a network configuration for a customer-managed VPC, you must create the VPC and subnets to meet Databricks requirements and then reference that VPC—including network objects such as VPCs, subnets, and security groups—in a network configuration for your Databricks account.
These instructions show you how to create the network configuration from the Account Settings page in the account console before you create a new workspace. You can also create the storage configuration in a similar way as part of the flow of creating a new workspace. See Create and manage workspaces using the account console.
 1. Set up your VPC, subnets, and security groups, using the instructions in Customer-managed VPC.
 Copy the IDs for each of these objects for use in the next step.
 You can share one customer-managed VPC with multiple workspaces in a single account. You do not have to create a new VPC for each workspace. However, you cannot reuse subnets or security groups with any other resources, including other workspaces or non-Databricks resources. If you plan to share one VPC with multiple workspaces, be sure to size your VPC and subnets accordingly. Because a Databricks network configuration encapsulates this information, you cannot reuse a network configuration across workspaces.
 2. Go to the account console, click Account Settings, and click Network configurations.
 3. Click Add Network Configuration.
 4. In the Network Configuration Name field, enter a human-readable name for your new network configuration.
 5. In the VPC ID field, enter the VPC ID.
 6. In the Subnet IDs field, enter the IDs for at least two subnets in the VPC.
 7. In the Security Group IDs field, enter at least one Security Group ID.
 8. Click Add.
View network configurations including errors
 1. Go to the account console, click Account Settings, and click Network configurations.
 All network configurations are listed, with VPC ID, VPC Status, and Created date displayed for each.
 2. Click the network configuration name to view more details, including subnet IDs, security group IDs, and any error messages.
 Not all validations are run during network configuration creation. Some errors are detected only when the configuration is used to create a new workspace. If a new workspace fails to deploy, re-visit this page to view new error messages.
Delete a network configuration
Network configurations cannot be edited after creation. If the configuration has incorrect data or if you no longer need it, delete the network configuration:
 2. On the network configuration row, click the Actions menu icon, and select Delete.
 You can also click the network configuration name and click Delete on the pop-up dialog.
 3. In the confirmation dialog, click Confirm Delete.

|Abstract or Summary
- Drilled shaft foundations provide significant geotechnical resistance for support of structures, such as highway bridges, traffic sign, and signal pole structures, and are used widely to meet their structural foundation requirements. The amount of steel reinforcement in drilled shaft foundations has increased over the past several decades to account for anticipated seismic hazards. Increased reinforcement may lead to increased possibilities of anomalies within shafts due to the increased difficulty for concrete to flow through reduced clearance between the reinforcement. High-strength steel reinforcement and permanent steel casing may be used to mitigate the concreting concern. However, the comparison of axial and lateral load transfer between drilled shafts with and without permanent steel casing and high-strength reinforcement has not been previously investigated, raising questions regarding the suitability of existing analytical approaches for the evaluation of axial and lateral load transfer. In addition to axial and lateral loading, deep foundations may need to resist torsional loads, resulting from wind loading on traffic sign and signal pole structures, or seismic loading on curved or skewed bridges. However, the understanding of the actual resistance to torsion provided by deep foundation elements is not well established. The design methods for deep foundations in torsion at the ultimate limit states need to be evaluated and their accuracy needs to be quantified with loading test data. Furthermore, the accuracy of existing load transfer-based torsion-rotation methods to predict the full-scale, in-service rotation performance that considers state-dependence of the soil needs to be quantified.
Two uncased instrumented drilled shafts were constructed and used to evaluate the torsional capacity and load transfer at full-scale. The quasi-static monotonic and cyclic torsional loading tests were conducted. Based on the results of the torsional loading tests, design methods to predict ultimate resistance were proposed. To facilitate the serviceability and ultimate limit state design of geometrically-variable deep foundations constructed in multi-layered soils, a torsional load transfer method was presented using a finite difference model (FDM) framework. Simplified state-dependent spring models, relating the unit torsional resistance to the magnitude of relative displacement, were developed in consideration of soil-structure interface shear test results. Parametric studies illustrated the significant effect of nonlinear soil responses and nonlinear structural response on the torsional behavior of deep foundations.
The axial and lateral load transfer of drilled shaft foundations were studied using four instrumented drilled shafts at full-scale: two uncased and two cased drilled shafts, reinforced with either mild or high strength steel reinforcement. Based on the results of axial loading tests, selected axial load transfer models were evaluated and modified to produce region-specific axial load transfer models to aid the design of drilled shaft bridge foundations for similar soils in the Willamette Valley. The effects of permanent casing on axial load transfer were summarized to provide an up-to-date reference on the reductions expected based on construction sequencing and installation methods. The lateral responses of the test drilled shaft foundations indicated that the high-strength reinforcement could be used without detriment to the lateral performance of drilled shafts; and the cased shafts responded in a more resilient manner than uncased shafts at the same nominal diameter due to their significantly greater flexural rigidity. Based on the empirical soil reaction-displacement (p-y) curves, a region-specific p-y curve model was proposed with recommendations to account for pseudo-scale effects due to the increasing contribution of shaft resistance to lateral resistance with increased diameter.

Ancient Yoruba civilization believed that one's hair is tied to their spiritually. They believed it was an extension of the beings spiritually to the Orishas (African gods and goddesses). They actually created different braided hairstyles that females wore to be more spiritual.
"Dada", was the term given to people who wore loc'd hair and it was derived from a spirit child that was born with loc'd hair. The spirit child was born with full grown locs, meaning that straight out of the womb their hair would already be twisted. The tale behind the "Dada spirit child" was that the parents could not cut the child's hair, because they would feel the wrath of the spirit world. If the parents chose to cut the child's hair they could not do so without performing a ceremony. If the child chooses to keep his or her hair, Yoruba elders would acknowledge that child as going on a spiritual journey and that is why "Dada"are also said to be taking a spiritual journey as well.
Today, in Nigerian culture loc'd hair is viewed as evil and dirty, and the tradition of the Orishas and beliefs is no longer practiced. Even though when a "Dada spirit child" is born the parents still practice that ceremony before cutting the child's hair. Irony!

Embarking on the thrilling pursuit of pheasant hunting without the steadfast companionship of a loyal canine can be likened to navigating uncharted territory. In this article, we delve into the intricacies of solo pheasant hunting, equipping you with the techniques, strategies, and essential gear necessary to conquer the challenges. Whether you are a seasoned hunter or a novice venturing into this realm, join us as we uncover the secrets to tracking, shooting, and retrieving pheasants without a faithful four-legged partner by your side.
- Hunting pheasants without a dog can be challenging due to the difficulty of flushing out elusive birds and the logistical obstacles of tracking and retrieving them.
- To increase the chances of success, solo hunters need to rely on their own skills and knowledge to outsmart pheasants, including studying their behavior and habitat preferences.
- Utilizing stealthy approaches and effective decoy usage can help attract pheasants and create a realistic hunting scenario.
- Decoys should be placed in open fields or near brushy areas where pheasants commonly feed or roost, and effective calling techniques can also be used to attract and ambush pheasants.
The Challenges of Hunting Pheasants Alone
The solitary pursuit of hunting pheasants presents numerous challenges, from the difficulty of flushing out the elusive birds to the logistical obstacles of tracking and retrieving them without the assistance of a hunting dog. Without a canine companion, hunters must rely on their own skills and knowledge to locate pheasant hotspots. This requires a deep understanding of the bird's behavior and habitat preferences. Pheasants are known to inhabit areas with dense cover, such as tall grasses, shrubs, and wetlands. By studying their feeding patterns and roosting sites, hunters can identify potential hotspots. Additionally, scouting the area in advance and looking for signs like tracks, feathers, and droppings can provide valuable information. While hunting pheasants alone may present challenges, it also offers a sense of self-reliance and the opportunity to develop a deeper connection with nature and the pursuit of game.
Techniques and Strategies for Solo Pheasant Hunting
When it comes to solo pheasant hunting, techniques and strategies play a crucial role in increasing your chances of success. Without the assistance of a dog, hunters must rely on their own skills and knowledge to outsmart these elusive birds. From utilizing stealthy approaches to effectively using decoys, there are various techniques that can help you navigate the challenges of hunting pheasants alone.
Dogless Hunting Tips
Successfully hunting pheasants without a canine companion requires employing at least three effective dogless hunting tips. While hunting without a dog poses its challenges, there are alternative bird decoy methods that can enhance your chances of a successful hunt.
One effective tip is to use a combination of decoys to create a realistic hunting scenario. Placing a hen decoy along with a rooster decoy can attract pheasants by simulating a social gathering. Another tip is to utilize movement decoys, such as a spinning wing decoy or a fluttering tail decoy, to add motion to your setup and grab the attention of passing pheasants. Lastly, employing a predator decoy, like a coyote or fox decoy, can trigger a defensive response in pheasants, making them more likely to approach your hunting area.
Stealthy Approaches for Pheasants
Consistently employing stealthy approaches is essential for solo pheasant hunters looking to enhance their chances of a successful hunt. Pheasants are known for their keen senses and ability to detect danger from a distance. Therefore, hunters must adopt strategies that allow them to approach these birds undetected. One of the most effective stealthy hunting techniques is to move slowly and quietly through the hunting ground. This minimizes noise and prevents the birds from being alerted to your presence. Another technique is to utilize effective decoy usage. Placing decoys strategically can lure pheasants to a desired location, allowing the hunter to take a shot without being noticed. By combining these stealthy approaches and using decoys effectively, solo pheasant hunters can greatly increase their chances of a successful hunt.
Effective Decoy Usage
Utilizing decoys strategically and employing proper positioning are essential techniques for effectively attracting and ambushing pheasants during solo hunts. Decoys can be an invaluable tool in your hunting arsenal, but their effectiveness relies heavily on decoy placement and effective calling techniques.
When it comes to decoy placement, it is crucial to mimic natural patterns and behaviors of pheasants. Placing decoys in open fields or near brushy areas where pheasants commonly feed or roost can increase your chances of attracting them. It is also important to position the decoys in a way that creates a realistic and enticing scene. Placing them in different orientations and angles can give the illusion of movement, making them more appealing to passing pheasants.
In addition to decoy placement, mastering effective calling techniques is vital. Pheasants are attracted to the distinct sounds of their own species, so learning to imitate their calls can be a game-changer. Practice different calls such as the cackle, crow, and assembly calls to effectively communicate with the birds and draw them closer.
Essential Gear for Hunting Pheasants Without a Dog
The article discusses the essential gear needed for hunting pheasants without a dog. While having a well-trained hunting dog can greatly enhance the hunting experience, it is still possible to successfully hunt pheasants without one. To do so, hunters need to be well-prepared and equipped with the right gear. First and foremost, a reliable shotgun is essential. A 12 or 20-gauge shotgun with a modified or improved cylinder choke is recommended for pheasant hunting. Additionally, hunters should invest in high-quality ammunition specifically designed for pheasants. Other essential gear includes a hunting vest with plenty of pockets for carrying extra ammunition, a hunting knife, a compass or GPS device, and blaze orange clothing for safety. It is also important to have a good understanding of pheasant behavior and habitat, as well as effective hunting techniques such as stalking and flushing. With the right gear and knowledge, hunting pheasants without a dog can still be a rewarding and successful experience.
Locating Pheasant Hotspots Without Canine Assistance
Several effective methods exist for identifying and pinpointing pheasant hotspots without the need for canine assistance. When it comes to locating pheasant habitats, there are various scouting techniques that can be employed. By understanding the behavior and preferences of pheasants, hunters can increase their chances of a successful hunt.
One method is to look for food sources. Pheasants are primarily grain eaters, so areas with abundant crops such as corn, wheat, or soybeans are likely to attract them. Another technique is to search for suitable cover. Pheasants prefer areas with tall grasses, shrubs, and brush piles, as they provide protection from predators. Lastly, water sources are also important for pheasants, so checking near rivers, streams, or ponds can be fruitful.
By utilizing these scouting techniques, hunters can identify pheasant hotspots and plan their hunts accordingly. While a canine companion can be helpful, it is not always necessary to locate these elusive birds. With a little knowledge and observation, hunters can find success in pheasant hunting without a dog.

Shooting Skills and Accuracy for Dogless Pheasant Hunting
To improve shooting skills and accuracy during dogless pheasant hunting, hunters can practice proper aiming techniques and employ effective shooting strategies. Shooting techniques play a crucial role in successful hunting, especially when hunting without a dog. Understanding bird behavior is essential for anticipating their movements and adjusting your aim accordingly. Observing the flight patterns of pheasants can provide valuable insights into their behavior and help you position yourself for a higher chance of success. Additionally, practicing shooting techniques such as proper grip, stance, and follow-through can significantly enhance your accuracy. It is important to focus on maintaining a steady aim, leading the bird correctly, and squeezing the trigger smoothly. Regular practice and honing these skills will not only increase your chances of hitting your target but also ensure a more humane and ethical hunting experience.
Tips for Tracking and Retrieving Pheasants Without a Dog
When hunting pheasants without a dog, tracking and retrieving can be challenging. However, there are techniques that can help you succeed. One tip is to focus on solo hunting techniques, such as flushing the birds out of cover and anticipating their flight patterns. Additionally, alternative bird retrieval methods, such as using a long-handled net or a fishing pole with a hook, can be effective in retrieving downed birds.
Solo Pheasant Hunting Techniques
One effective technique for solo pheasant hunting without a dog is to utilize stealth and patience, allowing the hunter to get close enough for a successful shot. When hunting pheasants alone, it is crucial to approach the hunting area with caution. Walk slowly and quietly, avoiding any sudden movements or noises that could startle the birds. Keep an eye out for cover, such as tall grasses or brush, where pheasants are likely to hide. Take advantage of natural terrain features to conceal your approach. By moving slowly and quietly, you increase your

Coffee-Powered Car Sets New Speed Record
coffee carCoffee-powered car owner Martin Bacon has just beaten the 65 mph record for cars of that class. The car achieved the feat with an audience including a Guinness World Records adjudicator and Bacon's wife at Greater Manchester's Woodford Airfield.
The 42-year-old achieved a speed of 65.536 mph to claim the record in a car that makes use of pellets of coffee chaff (waste from coffee production) which when heated in a gasifier break down into hydrogen and carbon monoxide which are in turn combusted to power the engine.
Bacon expressed his delight at their breaking the record for that range of cars, stating that it has taken years to make that "Coffee Car" although cars powered by gasification have been in wide usage before, such as in the period of World War Two. He also added that worldwide, there were more than 900,000 vehicles being driven by gasifiers with the inception of the 20th century.
The Co-Operative chose the car to mark 10 years of converting all their coffee to Fairtrade. Steve Murrells, Chief Executive of the organisation highlighted the importance of "the Bean Machine" breaking that record as including the publicizing of Fairtrade and how purchasing Fairtrade products can impact on families, producers and whole communities in developing nations.

text: Future advanced driver assistance systems will contain multiple sensors that are used for several applications, such as highly automated driving on freeways. The problem is that the sensors are usually asynchronous and their data possibly out-of-sequence, making fusion of the sensor data non-trivial. This paper presents a novel approach to track-to-track fusion for automotive applications with asynchronous and out-of-sequence sensors using information matrix fusion. This approach solves the problem of correlation between sensor data due to the common process noise and common track history, which eliminates the need to replace the global track estimate with the fused local estimate at each fusion cycle. The information matrix fusion approach is evaluated in simulation and its performance demonstrated using real sensor data on a test vehicle designed for highly automated driving on freeways.

Note: fully updated ruby documentation for DataObject classes is needed. For the time being, the test case in test/test_clipboard.rb and the dnd sample demonstrate how to use data object classes in some detail. For many purposes the ready-to-use classes TextDataObject, FiletDataObject, and BitmapDataObject will suffice.
A DataObject represents data that can be copied to or from the clipboard, or dragged and dropped. The important thing about DataObject is that this is a 'smart' piece of data unlike 'dumb' data containers such as memory buffers or files. Being 'smart' here means that the data object itself should know what data formats it supports and how to render itself in each of its supported formats.
A supported format, incidentally, is exactly the format in which the data can be requested from a data object or from which the data object may be set. In the general case, an object may support different formats on 'input' and 'output', i.e. it may be able to render itself in a given format but not be created from data on this format or vice versa. DataObject defines an enumeration type
Get = 0x01 // format is supported by GetDataHere() Set = 0x02 // format is supported by SetData()
which distinguishes between them. See DataFormat documentation for more about formats.
Not surprisingly, being 'smart' comes at a price of added complexity. This is reasonable for the situations when you really need to support multiple formats, but may be annoying if you only want to do something simple like cut and paste text.
To provide a solution for both cases, Widgets has two predefined classes which derive from DataObject: DataObjectSimple and DataObjectComposite. DataObjectSimple is the simplest DataObject possible and only holds data in a single format (such as HTML or text) and DataObjectComposite is the simplest way to implement a DataObject that does support multiple formats because it achieves this by simply holding several DataObjectSimple objects.
So, you have several solutions when you need a DataObject class (and you need one as soon as you want to transfer data via the clipboard or drag and drop):
|1. Use one of the built-in classes||You may use TextDataObject,BitmapDataObject or FileDataObject in the simplest cases when you only needto support one format and your data is either text, bitmap or list of files.|
|2. Use DataObjectSimple||Deriving from DataObjectSimple is the simplestsolution for custom data – you will only support one format and so probablywon't be able to communicate with other programs, but data transfer will workin your program (or between different copies of it).|
|3. Use DataObjectComposite||This is a simple but powerfulsolution which allows you to support any number of formats (eitherstandard or custom if you combine it with the previous solution).|
|4. Use DataObject directly||This is the solution formaximal flexibility and efficiency, but it is also the most difficult toimplement.|
Please note that the easiest way to use drag and drop and the clipboard with multiple formats is by using DataObjectComposite, but it is not the most efficient one as each DataObjectSimple would contain the whole data in its respective formats. Now imagine that you want to paste 200 pages of text in your proprietary format, as well as Word, RTF, HTML, Unicode and plain text to the clipboard and even today's computers are in trouble. For this case, you will have to derive from DataObject directly and make it enumerate its formats and provide the data in the requested format on demand.
Note that neither the GTK+ data transfer mechanisms for clipboard and drag and drop, nor OLE data transfer, copy any data until another application actually requests the data. This is in contrast to the 'feel' offered to the user of a program who would normally think that the data resides in the clipboard after having pressed 'Copy' – in reality it is only declared to be available.
There are several predefined data object classes derived from DataObjectSimple: FileDataObject, TextDataObject and BitmapDataObject which can be used without change.
You may also derive your own data object classes from CustomDataObject for user-defined types. The format of user-defined data is given as a mime-type string literal, such as "application/word" or "image/png". These strings are used as they are under Unix (so far only GTK+) to identify a format and are translated into their Windows equivalent under Win32 (using the OLE IDataObject for data exchange to and from the clipboard and for drag and drop). Note that the format string translation under Windows is not yet finished.
Each class derived directly from DataObject must override and implement all of its functions which are pure virtual in the base class.
The data objects which only render their data or only set it (i.e. work in only one direction), should return 0 from get_format_count.
Clipboard and drag and drop overview, DnD sample, FileDataObject, TextDataObject, BitmapDataObject, CustomDataObject, DropTarget, DropSource, TextDropTarget, FileDropTarget
Array get_all_formats( Integer dir = Get)
Should return an Array of DataFormat objects supported in the given direction by this class.
String get_data_here(DataFormat format )
Should return a String containing the object's data, or
nil on failure.
Integer get_data_size(DataFormat format )
Returns the data size of the given format format; may be overridden if desired.
Integer get_format_count(Integer direction = 1)
Returns the number of available formats for rendering or setting the data.
DataFormat get_preferred_format(Integer direction = 1)
Returns the preferred format for either rendering the data (if dir is
its default value) or for setting it. Usually this will be the
native format of the DataObject.
By default, the first member of the list returned by
is the preferred format, but this method may be overridden.
Boolean set_data( DataFormat format, String data )
Should store and accept the data data for the format format.
Should returns true on success, false on failure.

Mark Nozzle Orientation on Dish Fabrication:
I would like to explain in this post how to mark the nozzle on the dishes or heads through the use of fabrication methods and terms. By using AutoCAD software how to mark the nozzles on the exact position with proper angles and radius as follows.
Nozzle Orientation process in AutoCAD:
- First, observe the dish or head outer diameter with measurement tape or with any other types of equipment as your wish.
- After that plan, the elevation and how many nozzles are required for the dish. I already mention the all the details in the below AutoCAD drawing tutorial you can check the video.
- Then after mark the centre point on the top of dish with a marker by measuring the four parts. That means to divide the 360 degrees into four parts then you get each part 90 degrees.
- Draw one of the horizontal and vertical lines to form a centre point of the top dish.
- consider how many nozzles are required for example in this I am taking 8 nozzles. divide this by 360 degrees then you get each nozzle angle.
- 360 degrees/8 nozzles are equal to 45 degrees.
- Then you get each degree angle of all eight nozzles are 45 degrees
- This is easy to draw in AutoCAD with exact angles coming to fabrication terms it is somewhat difficult the process as follows:
- Mark the dish centre by using a dot-punch
- Check the OCF of the dish
- Example: 5232 mm OCF of the dish
= 5232 mm/360 degrees
= 14.81 degrees (each degree)
4. Example: The radius of the nozzle orientation is 645 mm
5. Mark the radius on the top of the dish with a large divider with the exact measurement and you can also adjust the measurements.
6. At the end of the dish measure the OCF of the dish after that list out all the angles where you want to place the angles for example:
0 to 60 degrees x 14.81 degrees = 888.6 mm
60 to 90 degrees x 14.81 degrees = 444.3 mm
90 to 120 degrees x 14.81 degrees = 444.3 mm
Like this, you can measure the all the angles with this process.
7. After getting the all the angles mark the distance at the bottom end of the circular dish with measuring tape and marker or dot punch.
8. after intersecting the all the dots with the centre point of the top dish then you can observe the angles on the Radius of the orientation and place the nozzles.
- Check the actual Radius (R)
- Check the pipe sizes equal or not
- Measure the lengths and angles properly with measurement tape
- Maintain the pipe cutting gap should be 10 mm
- After cut the orientation by the plasma torch.
- Fabricate the all the nozzles as per standards sch40, sch80 and ASA 150# SORF flanges Table-E PCD or normal as per client requirements.

Handheld metal detectors can pick up signals from the magnetic ink on U.S. cash, a new study found.
Think those TSA agents waving a metal-detecting wand at your pockets only know how many coins you're carrying? Think again.
Metal detectors can tell how much cash is on you, too, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Washington's Applied Physics Laboratory in Seattle, the Daily Mail reported.
The handheld metal detectors get signals from the magnetic ink dollar bills are printed with, and the strength of the magnetic signals increases when bills are stacked together.
In other words, don't try smuggling big stacks of cash through airport security.
The discovery by Antao Chen and Chris Fuller, which they're presenting at is still in its nascent stages, though, and the pair says there's still no way for the metal detectors to count the exact amount of cash they find. They can only count the number of bills they find.
That's because a dollar bill carries the same amount of responsive magnetic ink as a $100 bill — meaning somebody carrying $10 in ones would trigger the metal detector just as much as somebody carrying $1,000 in hundreds.
Other sources can interfere with the signal, too, particularly ones that also have magnetic ink, New Scientist noted. Adding other equipment to the simple detectors could cut down on that interference, one scientist at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom said.

A Coupled Harmonic Polynomial Cell and Higher-Order Spectral Method for Nonlinear Wave Propagation
MetadataShow full item record
The present work deals with wave generation in fully nonlinear numerical wave tanks (NWT). As an alternative to modelling a moving (physical) wavemaker, a two-dimensional (2D) potential-flow NWT is coupled with an external spectral wave data (SWD) application programming interface (API). The NWT uses the harmonic polynomial cell (HPC) method to solve the governing Laplace equations for the velocity potential and its time derivative, and has previously been extensively validated and verified for numerous nonlinear wave-propagation problems using traditional wave-generation mechanisms. Periodic waves of different steepness generated with a stream-function theory as reference solution in the SWD API are first considered to investigate the method's numerical accuracy. Thereafter, with a higher-order spectral method (HOSM) as the SWD API solution, irregular waves with different wave heights and water depths relevant for e.g. aquaculture and offshore structures are simulated. Differences between the HPC and HOSM solutions in and near steep crests are investigated. The study aims to demonstrate a robust method to generate and propagate general wave fields for further studies of nonlinear waves and wave-body interaction in both two and three dimensions.

Asphalt Driveways Kilmore Big County Dublin
Asphalt is an inexpensive solution for large surfacing areas. When you use it for a smaller surface, however, it can cost a little more than usual.
While asphalt is often referred to as asphalt tarmac, the two things are not actually the same. The main difference between asphalt and tarmac is that asphalt is tremendously hard-wearing, but the main disadvantage is that it's not as hardy as tarmac in relation to continuous deterioration by car tires.
However, asphalt is less affected by extreme weather and requires less maintenance. Another difference is that asphalt is kinder to the environment than tarmac.
When the driveway gets old, you can recycle asphalt and reuse the material elsewhere fairly easily. For driveways you can also use asphalt concrete.
Find out more about our Asphalt Driveways Dublin service here.
What is asphalt concrete?
Asphalt concrete is a blend of asphaltic cement mixed with grit or sand which delivers a long-lasting and hard-wearing driveway. These driveways are more expensive again as they are harder to repair than asphalt or tarmac. Also, Asphalt concrete gets damaged more easily by fluctuating temperatures.
How Long Will An Asphalt Driveway Last?
The way you treat your driveway will determine the lifespan of asphalt. For instance, extreme weather conditions and heavy traffic can cause dents and cracks in the driveway. So, the eventual life expectancy of an asphalt driveway depends on several factors just like tarmac. However, the general life expectancy of an asphalt driveway is about 20 years.
The Differences Between Tarmac VS Asphalt driveways Kilmore Big County Dublin
While tarmac and asphalt are usually used for pavements, driveway surfaces, and roads, they aren't the same. Asphalt is a mixture of aggregates and bitumen that needs up to two days before it completely cures. On the other hand, Tarmac is a combination of crushed stone and tar that cures quickly.
Here are the main differences between tarmac vs asphalt:
- Asphalt offers a better finish and smoother surface than tarmac. This helps to increase tire grip and makes it a more suitable, safer option for driveways and roads. This is because tarmac consists of larger aggregates than asphalt.
- Asphalt is reusable but tarmac is not. You can scrape off the asphalt surface as well as reprocess the material to use for a different project. This makes asphalt a more eco-friendly choice in comparison with tarmac.
- Tarmac is likely to get damaged by diesel or petrol spills, while asphalt needs less maintenance.
- Asphalt is slightly more expensive material to use over small surface areas.
- Similarities Between Tarmac and Asphalt
- Both are used for a wide range of paving applications.
- Both paving materials have the same makeup.
- They each contain petroleum products, fillers such as sand, and aggregate such as stone.
- Both are suitable for large loads and heavy vehicles.
Both asphalt and tarmac are used for surface pavements, roads, and driveways, but they aren't the same material. Tarmac or tarmacadam is a blend of tar and larger aggregates, whereas asphalt is a blend of bitumen and smaller aggregates. Tarmac is easy and quick to install and a litte bit cheaper than asphalt for driveways.
Asphalt is slightly more eco-friendly than tarmac as you can break and reuse it at the end of life. Since asphalt tops are smoother in comparison with tarmac, they are safer to drive on because of better tire grip.
Where Are Tarmac And Asphalt Used?
Both asphalt and tarmac materials are extensively used for roads (such as motorways, highways, caravan parks, private roads, car parks, etc.,). They are also used on pavements and driveways. Contact Quality Driveways Dublin for Asphalt Driveways Kilmore Big County Dublin. Both elements are extensively used in domestic and corporate settings.
Which Product Is Cheaper?
Among the two materials, tarmac is a bit cheaper than asphalt.
What Are The Benefits Of Asphalt And Tarmac?
Both elements offer longevity, durability, and ease of installation compared with other surfacing such as Block Paving.
Which Product Is More Environmentally Friendly?
Asphalt is slightly more eco-friendly than Tarmac.


Here the electron-phonon Holstein model with Rashba spin-orbit interaction is studied for a two-dimensional square lattice in the adiabatic limit. It is demonstrated that a delocalized electron at zero spin-orbit coupling localizes into a large polaron state as soon as the Rashba term is nonzero. This spin-orbit induced polaron state has localization length inversely proportional to the Rashba coupling gamma and it dominates a wide region of the gamma-lambda phase diagram, where lambda is the electron-phonon interaction.

We're on the subject of viscosity maintenance again, and for good reason too. The matter is one that needs to be addressed year round, in both hot and cold weather. However, this time we're talking about maintaining the proper viscosity of your liquids under all perceivable circumstances, whether in room temperature, on cold or hot days.
Viscosity Maintenance Has Two Sides
In previous articles, we've discussed viscosity maintenance as it applies to maintaining low viscosity levels in your liquids through the use of Powerblanket® heating products. Of course, the reason we've talk so much about this is because it's pertinent to so many scenarios. However, maintaining low viscosity levels is only half the story when it comes to the entire viscosity conundrum. Some operations and product maintenance require the other side of the spectrum. In other words, Powerblanket can help with maintaining high viscosity levels as well.
If you store or use liquids that need to be very low in viscosity, then Powerblanket heating solutions can help you keep your liquids at temperatures high enough to keep the viscosity of the liquid very low. But, if the opposite challenge is your concern, Powerblanket can help there too. Our new Powerblanket ICE cooling products can keep your liquids cool enough to maintain high viscosity levels, even in really hot weather.
If the liquids you're storing are at risk of losing their viscous qualities when the temperatures rise, then Powerblanket ICE is going to be an invaluable ally for your operations. Powerblanket ICE comes in three performance levels and will help you keep your liquids cool and viscous, even in really hot weather.
- Keep your liquids cool during hot weather, maintaining viscous qualities and eliminating spoiled product
- Eliminate downtime associated with lost viscosity and the need for expensive cooling interventions
- Increase output and profit by increasing operational efficiency
Powerblanket ICE Features:
- Powerblanket ICE uses Powerblanket patented heat-spreading technology in reverse to draw heat away from the container and cool the contents inside.
- Powerblanket ICE covers and insulates your container with the same robust system used in the Powerblanket heating products.
- All three performance levels of Powerblanket ICE, the ice pack, ice box, and chiller-driven systems are portable (120VAC required).
- Powerblanket ICE allows you to control the temperature of bulk materials with ease:
- Increase yields (Bulk materials that sit at high temperatures will reduce yield for most viscous liquids. With Powerblanket ICE, you can bring the temperature down, and keep it there.)
- Maintain the viscous quality of your liquids
- Decrease operational inefficiencies
- Blankets can be left installed and running while bulk material containers are in use.

International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering
In this study, a passive Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) is investigated to dampen resonant motions of a Submerged Floating Tunnel (SFT) in waves and earthquakes. TMD is adopted to control resonant lateral motion. A time-domain dynamics simulation model that considers the elasticity of the tunnel and mooring lines is first established, which is based on the lumped mass method and Morison equation, and the SFT-TMD interaction is considered through springs and dampers. Next, by using the Harmony Search (HS) algorithm, TMD's spring and damping coefficients are optimized; the dynamics simulations under white noise seismic excitations are continuously carried out with updated spring and damping coefficients produced by HS rules until the designed maximum iteration number. The influence of TMD's mass is individually investigated through a parametric study. After the optimization process is completed, the global performances of SFT with and without TMD are systematically evaluated in both waves and earthquakes. It is found that TMD plays a crucial role in controlling SFT vibrations when environmental loads are close to the system's fundamental lateral natural frequency under both wave and seismic excitations. TMD also enhances the comfort of passengers and reduces static and dynamic mooring tensions.

How To Sing Well In Chillier Weather
We all know how difficult it can be during the colder months in Canada – everything takes longer, and sometimes it's so cold, it's dangerous to be out in the elements for too long. This kind of weather has a direct impact on singers as well, so here are three tips to help you sing well during those cold winter months:
#1. Dress for Success:
Dressing for the weather just seems like common sense, but there are a few extra things you can do to help your voice out. Anytime your body shivers, you are creating tension, which directly impacts your sound. Make sure you're wearing enough layers so that your body doesn't need to shiver to create warmth. Protect your neck with a scarf, and try to cover your mouth and nose if it's really cold outsie.
#2. Nourish Yourself:
It can be easy to forget to eat well, since we often turn to more comfortable food fare during the winter months. It's especially important before a concert to ensure that you're giving your body the best food and drink possible, so that you can be at your best. Hydration is especially important during winter months, since we often have to exert ourselves more, and the city is so dry in the winter. Make sure you're drinking enough water!
#3. Warm-up Well:
It's important to always warm-up before singing, but this becomes especially important during the winter months. Because of the dry air, and the cold air, our bodies produce more mucus, and dries our throat out. Give yourself an extra few minutes to warm up, and make sure to hydrate as you sing!
How else can you prepare yourself to sing well in chillier weather? Tell us in the comments below!

You can use datetime.replace to obtain a new datetime object without the seconds and microseconds:
the_time = datetime.now()
the_time = the_time.replace(second=0, microsecond=0)

I know it's quite old question, but I haven't found around any really complete answer so far.
There's no need to create a datetime object first and subsequently manipulate it.
dt = datetime.now().replace(second=0, microsecond=0)
will return the desired object

text: Misalignment is one of the key reasons for vibrations in most of the rotating system. The present study focuses on interactions among speed, load, and defect severity by investigating their effect on the system vibration. Response surface methodology (RSM) with root-mean-square (RMS) as a response factor is used to understand the influence of such interactions on the system performance. Experiments are planned using design of experiments, and analysis is carried out using analysis of variance (ANOVA). It is observed that speed has a remarkable effect on RMS value in both parallel and angular types of misalignment and affects the system performance. RSM results revealed that a change in load has less impact on vibration amplitude in case of horizontal and vertical directions, but there is a significant variation in RMS value in axial direction for both types of misalignment. A slight increase in the RMS value with an increase in defect severity is observed in the axial direction. These observations will help to understand the misalignment defect and its effect in a better way.


Committal hearings
Committal hearings (also known as committal proceedings) are heard in the Magistrates' Court for indictable offences.
They occur after a person has been formally charged with an offence and either released on bail or held in remand. They mark the initiation of formal proceedings against an accused by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).
Purpose of committal hearings
The purpose of these proceedings is for the Magistrate to determine whether the DPP has sufficient evidence to gain a conviction at trial in a higher court (i.e. whether there is a "prima facie" case). If the Magistrate deems that there is enough evidence for a conviction, he or she will commit the defendant to stand trial.
If there is insufficient evidence, the Magistrate can dismiss a case, and the defendant will be released. However, if further evidence is found, the defendant can be charged again.
Another purpose of committal hearings is to ensure efficiency in the operation of County and Supreme courts, as they will not have to waste time with weak prosecution cases.
There are two types of committal hearings:
 - Traditional method: prosecution witnesses give oral evidence in a courtroom under oath. As in a formal trial, these witnesses are examined and cross-examined. The defence may enter a plea, and occasionally call witnesses. However, the focus is on the prosecution.
 - Hand-up-brief method: prosecution witnesses give evidence through sworn written statements. This is the most common method of committal hearing.

text: We analyze the mechanism of condensation of orientational moduli [as introduced in Phys. Rev. D 87, 025025 (2013)] on multi-Skyrmionic configurations of the four-dimensional Skyrme model. The present analysis reveals interesting novel features. First of all, the orientational moduli tend to decrease the repulsive interactions between Skyrmions, the effect decreasing with the increase of the baryon number. Moreover, in the case of a single Skyrmion, the appearance of moduli is energetically favorable if finite-volume effects are present. Otherwise, in the usual flat topologically trivial case, it is not. In the low-energy theory these solutions can be interpreted as Skyrmions with additional isospin degrees of freedom.


Nissan demonstrates sweat-sensing seats to fight dehydration
Sweat-covered seats aren't most people's idea of a good thing, but Nissan thinks they are. The Japanese automaker is demonstrating technology that changes the color of car seats and steering wheels based on sweat. Nissan believes this will allow the car to detect when the driver is dehydrated.
Nissan designer Paulien Routs, and Droog Design sought to show how useful sweat can be with the Nissan Juke Soak. That last part refers to the trademarked, sweat-sensitive textile material the car's interior is coated with. You can see exactly how it works in the embedded video. Soak can also be sprayed onto clothes to give the wearer a better idea of his or her hydration level, which could be particularly useful when working out.
While the concept of car seats that change color from sweat may seem a bit silly, Nissan claims driver dehydration is no laughing matter. The automaker contends that dehydration has as big an impact on reaction times and overall alertness as drunk driving. That's based on a 2015 study conducted by England's Loughborough University, and funded by the European Hydration Institute, a research organization that promotes hydration.
Staying hydrated should be as important for driving as it is for any other activity, but car buyers may not be interested in seats that change colors when they sweat. Besides being a bit undignified, it's also sort of an inefficient way to let drivers know they might be dehydrated. The color changes won't be highly apparent if you're sitting in the seat, after all. Drivers may also simply ignore the car's warning about their hydration levels. Given the number of warnings and alerts modern cars are capable of emitting, that wouldn't be difficult.
But the Nissan Juke Soak is a reminder that drivers need to do their part to keep the roads safe. A driver must be calm, alert, and awake at all times, something that is easy to forget in an age where driving is taken for granted. Everyone is responsible for making sure they are fit to drive before getting behind the wheel. That is, at least until autonomous cars arrive.

What is covered the care certificate standard 4?
The care certificate standard 4 covers the concepts of equality, diversity, inclusion and discrimination in the provision of health and social care services.
What is equality?
Equality is about treating people alike according to their needs. You should make sure that everyone is given equality of opportunity. For example, you may need to provide information in different formats (for example, Braille) or make sure there is access to a building for an individual in a wheelchair.
What is diversity?
Diversity can be described as 'difference'. All individuals are different, and the many different parts of a person's character and identity make them unique.
What is inclusion?
Inclusion is 'being included within either a group or society as a whole'. Inclusion links with diversity and equality. It is important to understand someone's differences so that you can include them and treat them equally and fairly. People can feel excluded if they are not able to join in with activities.
Excluding people because of their differences is known as 'discrimination'. All workers in health and social care must make sure that they work inclusively to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to take part when they want to. This is especially true about people taking part in their care and support so that it is truly centred on them as a person.
What is discrimination?
Discrimination broadly refers to actions that are often based on a person's negative attitude towards others. In human social affairs, discrimination is treatment or consideration of or making a distinction in favour of or against, a person based on the group, class, or category to which the person is perceived to belong rather than on individual attributes.
This includes treatment of an individual or group, based on their actual or perceived membership in a certain group or social category, "in a way that is worse than the way people are usually treated". It involves the group's initial reaction or interaction going on to influence the individual's actual behaviour towards the group leader or the group, restricting members of one group from opportunities or privileges that are available to another group, leading to the exclusion of the individual or entities based on logical or irrational decision making.
Why is this care certificate standard 4 training course important?
Equality and diversity are essential components of health and social care. Good equality and diversity practices make sure that the services provided to people are fair and accessible to everyone. They ensure that people are treated as equals, that people get the dignity and respect they deserve and that their differences are celebrated. Equality and diversity shouldn't be seen as bonus benefits to your health or social care setting but more as integral constituents.
In a health and social care environment, equality and diversity must be at the heart of what we do. Our patients and service users are individual people, and we should always strive to ensure that their diverse needs are met and ensure that they have equal access to the services we provide. This is particularly important for adults in need who, because of a disability, illness or their age, are unable to take adequate care of themselves and keep themselves from harm.

In this guide, I'm going to show you how to create a cart value booster based on your free shipping threshold.
Note: This tutorial will only work if:
 - You're using Shopify and have installed the latest version of our app
 - You have a free shipping threshold (this is probably obvious)
Step 1:
Create a new campaign in your Wisepops account.
Step 2:
Drag and drop a text block into your popup.
Step 3:
Copy and paste the following piece of code into your block:
{{ X | minus: cart.total_price | round: 2 }}
Replace the "X" with your own free shipping threshold.
When the popup is displayed, this section will be replaced with the value that your visitor needs to add to his cart to get free shipping.
Step 4:
Add the text around the dynamic block.
Your should end up with something like this:
Step 5:
In Display > Page, create the following rule:
Step 6:
In Display > Ecommerce, add the following rule (replace 100 with your own free shipping threshold):
And you're done!
Here's what the final result looks like on our own store (hope you don't mind the Pokemon):
Did this answer your question?


Preface: I've read this question about water preventing an initiation from occurring.
I understand why it's important to slowly add the alkyl halide to the dry ether and magnesium for exotherm control. But why is the first addition called an initiation and what's its purpose?
Is it just to confirm that the conditions are ready to continue slowly adding the rest of the reagent? I know it's a free-radical reaction, maybe that's where the term "initiation" comes from. But I've seen the reaction described as "self-sustaining" after the initiation, but it's not a chain reaction. Perhaps that's referring to a predictable reaction proceeding forward instead of stalling then blowing up your glassware.
The first step in the Grignard reaction involves transfer of an electron from the surface of the metal to the alkyl halide to form a radical anion. The radical anion then disproportionates into a free radical and halide anion. \begin{aligned} \ce{R−X + Mg &-> R−X^{•−} + Mg^{•+}}\\ \ce{R−X^{•−} &-> R^{•} + X^{−}}\\ \ce{R^{•} + Mg^{•+} &-> RMg^{+}}\\ \ce{RMg^{+} + X^{−} &-> RMgX}\\ \end{aligned}
When you take the magnesium out of the jar, the surface has a thin oxidation layer on it that prevents the initial electron transfer from occurring. We used to take one piece of magnesium and scratch it good with a knife to expose a clean, fresh magnesium surface. We would place this piece of magnesium in the flask (dry ether and the rest of the magnesium already added) and drip in a few drops of the alkyl halide. Without fail, within a minute or two, mild bubbling would be noticed (local ether boiling), which became vigorous as the initiation phase of the reaction "cleaned" the surface of other pieces of oxidized magnesium. After the vigorous bubbling started to subside we would drip in the remaining alkyl halide plus ether solution at a rate to maintain ether reflux. So the reaction does involve a free radical but the initiation phase really has more to do with removing the oxidation layer from all of the magnesium and allowing that initial electron transfer step to occur.
 - $\begingroup$ Good answer, I'd like to add a point to be considered: The initial electron transfer is usually slightly endothermic. In the initiation process you will usually need to add some energy - the warmth of the hand might do (depending on the used halid). After the reaction started, the formation of the Grignard is exotherm, hence providing enough energy to overcome the activation energy of the electron transfer. It will then proceed until the limiting reactant is used up - hence it is called self-sustained. $\endgroup$ – Martin - マーチン Jul 14 '14 at 7:15

 $\begingroup$ _USER_ That makes a lot of sense. My group has been performing Grignard reagent prep and reactions on and industrial scale, and your answer gives much needed perspective to why we have the initiation step, and how to troubleshoot it if it doesn't go right away. $\endgroup$ – tralston Jul 14 '14 at 15:57
 - $\begingroup$ _USER_ That's an interesting point. Thanks for explaining the self-sustaining aspect of the initation. $\endgroup$ – tralston Jul 14 '14 at 16:05
First, you are mixing magnesium metal with an alkyl halide. The product of this reaction is $\ce{R-Mg-I}$, where $\ce{R}$ is the alkyl group and $\ce{I}$ is the halide. It is called an initiation reaction because you first need to make the reactive compound.
Next, you add the alcohol to produce the product. Mixing an alkyl halide and an alcohol together will not yield the product you want.

LEA Administrators and Data Auditors
Why did some of my employees disappear from the NCEdCloud IAM Service?
If you have staff members in your LEA or charter school who were using accounts in the IAM Service but they no longer show up, the first place to check is typically the payroll system that your LEA or charter school uses. This occasionally happens with 10 and 11 month employees when their work/job Start Dates are not present or not in the upcoming school year in the payroll system.
Why is an employee's email wrong or missing in the NCEdCloud IAM Service?
Employee email address originally came from the HRMS system when NCEdCloud was first set up. However, many PSUs complained that those records were only updated if an employee changed jobs, and frequently had an old email listed. This process was changed a few years ago to obtain employee email address in a specific order by searching 2 or 3 source systems to find staff email address. The process now starts with PowerSchool, then checks LINQ HR (if used by the LEA), and lastly HRMS.
Who can see the "My Students" tab in the IAM Service Profiles view?
The ability to see the "My Students" tab in the Rapid Identity Portal under Profiles view, is based on whether the employee who logs into the IAM Service has one of the designated "Teacher Job Codes". Job Codes are setup by the NCDPI and are assigned to an employee through their payroll system and stored in the UID system. Below are the job codes (sometimes referred to as object codes), that allow an employee to see the My Students tab.
When is the next Home Base maintenance window and how will it affect the NCEdCloud IAM service?
Home Base Maintenance Periods typically involve downtime of PowerSchool and sometimes other Home Base applications. However, during such downtime, other IAM Service integrated applications remain available.
For a complete schedule of Home Base Maintenance Periods, please see... Home Base Maintenance and Support
What are the cutoff times for updated source data to be included in the IAM service the next day?
Upstream data processes produce the user data that is provided to the NCEdCloud IAM service early in the morning on Monday through Saturday. If an updated data field value is entered into that field's source system prior to that source system's cutoff time, then the data is provided to the IAM service the following day. (Note that data is typically NOT provided to the IAM service on Sunday mornings).
What settings in the Chrome browser can affect logins?
There are a couple of Chrome settings that may improve your experience in using the NCEdCloud IAM Service:
 1. 'Continue where I left off' - attempts to re-establish all of your sessions that were open when you closed the browser. This can result in a continuation of a session -ORcan result in some very cryptic errors within the Application. Change this under Settings > On startup
How are elevated privilege roles requested?
The Tech Director/CTO for an LEA or Charter School should be the first person to claim their account and request the LEA Administrator Role. To request a privileged role for others, choose the 'Workflow' button on the left menu and then choose the 'Requests' tab along the top. Select the desired role checkbox(es) (LEA Administrator, LEA Data Auditor, LEA Help Desk, LEA Student Help Desk, School Help Desk, and School Student Help Desk) and click the Submit Requests button.
How do I see a list of employees or students in my LEA?
The My Employees tab or the My Students tab under Profiles in the IAM Service relies on a "Search" function. You need to enter some criteria to select the users you want to lookup. The easiest search is to enter an asterisk * wildcard in the search window and click the Search button. This will only return the first 1000 matching records, however, which is the limit of the query.

Materials and Equipment
Leave (large enough for a sail)
Bushcraft Knife (Adults only)
- Get your kids to collect twigs of roughly the same diameter.
- Break the twigs to roughly 9 or 10 twigs of the same size.
- Wrap your string around the first twig and tie a knot then attach your second twig and knot to secure.
- Repeat this process for the remaining twigs, as shown in image 1.
- Next repeat this process along the centre and opposite side then trim off any loose ends. (shown in Image 2)
- Once you have the main body of your raft constructed, you will need two more twigs measuring slightly over the width of your raft. These will attach underneath your raft, placed in the opposite direction, along your original knot lines.
- Turn your raft so the underneath is facing you, then lay your first twig in the opposite direction and tie the twig around the original knots at one end, secure at two or three intervals as shown below.
- Repeat this step for your second twig, which should be placed parallel to the twig you've just secured at the opposite side, again attach it to the original knots to secure (see image 3 above).
- To make your boat a mast, find a straight 'ish' twig and approximately the same size as the length of your raft. Using your bushcraft Knife (ask an adult to help with this part) flatten around 2cm of your twig at either side, this will allow it to slot in between a gap at the centre of the raft (please NOTE the width should be slightly larger than the gap and be a tight fit to secure it in place).
- Find a large leaf for your mast. Then make two holes in the leaf one at the centre bottom and another one opposite at the top.
- To finish your raft thread the leaf through the holes on to your mast.
Congratulations!!! you've made your 1st twig raft, now have fun sailing!!!


NDCG (normalized discounted cumulative gain) metric.
Inherits From: Metric
Calculates NDCG@k for a given set of top_k values calculated from a list of gains (relevance scores) that are sorted based on the associated predictions. The top_k_list can be passed as part of the NDCG metric config or using tfma.MetricsSpec.binarize.top_k_list if configuring multiple top_k metrics. The gain (relevance score) is determined from the value stored in the 'gain_key' feature. The value of NDCG@k returned is a weighted average of NDCG@k over the set of queries using the example weights.
NDCG@k = (DCG@k for the given rank)/(DCG@k DCG@k = sum_{i=1}^k gain_i/log_2(i+1), where gain_i is the gain (relevance score) of the i^th ranked response, indexed from 1.
This is a query/ranking based metric so a query_key must also be provided in the associated tfma.MetricsSpec.
gain_key Key of feature in features dictionary that holds gain values.
top_k_list Values for top k. This can also be set using the tfma.MetricsSpec.binarize.top_k_list associated with the metric.
name Metric name.
compute_confidence_interval Whether to compute confidence intervals for this metric.
Note that this may not completely remove the computational overhead involved in computing a given metric. This is only respected by the jackknife confidence interval method.

What is the Children's Trust?
Bradford Children's Trust is a local partnership of organisations responsible for the strategic framework and delivery of services to children, young people and families.
What is the Role of the Trust?
Our vision is that every child and young person should be supported to have the best possible start in life, and be given active help and encouragement towards achieving the outcomes identified in the following themes:
By working with children, young people and families, the Trust sets strategic direction, establishes priorities, monitors progress and identifies resources to develop services.
Children and Young People's Plan
The Children and Young People's Plan sets out how our services will work on behalf of the growing young population of the district to improve their future life chances.
We aim to support children at the earliest opportunity and at the earliest age when they are most vulnerable. We have put in place a preventative framework which will enable services to intervene early at the point where things first start to go wrong in their lives. This is part of the Big Idea, to which partners have signed up: "local joined-up services focused on prevention".
Stronger Partnerships Deliver Stronger Services
As a Children's Trust, we recognise that stronger partnerships, greater integration of services and a shared purpose lead to better services for children, young people and families – especially the most vulnerable. The core principle of a shared commitment to improve the lives of children, young people and families – enshrined in the 'duty to co-operate'– remains as important as it ever was. The Trust's Statement of Intent underpins our commitment as an ongoing partnership.
We look forward to working with you all on this.
Cllr Ralph Berry
Executive Member for Children's Services
Strategic Director of Children's Services

How to convert watts to kVA
Watts to kVA calculation formula
The apparent power S in kilovolt-amps (kVA) is equal to the real power P in watts (W), divided by 1000 times the power factor PF:
S(kVA) = P(W) / (1000 × PF)
So kilovolt-amps are equal to watts divided by 1000 times the power factor.
kilovolt-amps = watts / (1000 × PF)
kVA = kW / (1000 × PF)
What is the apparent power in kilovolt-amps when the real power is 3000W and the power factor is 0.8?
S = 3000W / (1000 × 0.8) = 3.75kVA
