Another way to rank customers is by percentage of total sales. The idea is the same as ranking by count, but with an important difference. Since you need to fetch all of the data in order to compute a running percent of total summary, you don't want to use a group filter to weed out data. You need to use a format trigger on the repeating frame to compare the running total to your cutoff parameter.
To fetch the data for the percentage calculation:
In the Object Navigator, double-click the view icon next to the Data Model node.
In the Data Model view that displays, click the SQL Query tool in the tool palette then click in an open area of the Data Model view, somewhere to the right of query Q_1, to display the SQL Query Statement dialog box.
In the SQL Query Statement field, enter the following
SELECT CUSTNAME CNAME2, SUM(AMOUNT) SUM_AMT2 FROM SALES GROUP BY CUSTNAME ORDER BY SUM(AMOUNT) DESC
Note:You can enter this query in any of the following ways:
Copy and paste the code from the provided text file called
rank_code.txt (SELECT statement for Percentage Calculation) into the SQL Query Statement field.
Click Query Builder to build the query without entering any code manually.
Type the code in the SQL Query Statement field.
Click OK. Your data model should now look like the following image.
Figure 34-5 Data Model view of the Ranking Report
Save your report.
To create a parameter for the percentage cutoff:
In the Object Navigator, under the Data Model node, click the User Parameters node.
Choose Edit > Create to create a new user parameter under the User Parameters node.
If the Property Inspector is not already displayed, right-click the new user parameter (P_1), then choose Property Inspector to display the Property Inspector, and set the following properties:
Under General Information, set the Name property to CUTOFF_PCT.
Under Parameter, set the Datatype property to Number, set the Width property to 2, and set the Initial Value property to 75.
In the Data Model view, click the group object G_CNAME2, then click and drag the bottom handle down about 0.25 inches (0.5 centimeters) to make the group bigger.
Click the Summary Column tool in the tool palette.
Click in the empty space beneath SUM_AMT2 to create a summary column.
Double-click the new summary column object (CS_1) to display the Property Inspector, and set the following properties:

Anthropology, mass graves and the politics of the dead
If you have a question about this talk, please contact Michael Rivera.
In the past few decades, anthropologists, among other experts, have been called to assist in the investigation of mass graves by conducting exhumations, anthropological examinations and identifications of human skeletal remains. The reasons for this choice of specialists are several: anthropologists are trained in methods of grave location, archaeological excavation and identification by constructing the biological profile of the exhumed remains. In recent years, DNA analyses have been employed to verify the anthropological findings, bringing into the picture yet another scientific specialisation. The use of anthropologists in the investigation of mass graves started in Argentina in the mid-1980s and it has since become common in similar situations. When an international organisation such as the United Nations or even a government decide to investigate a mass grave, this can be for either legal or humanitarian purposes. In the legal context, the focus is to bring those responsible to justice, while in the humanitarian the main goal is to identify the remains and return them to their families for a proper burial according to local customs. The involvement of experts who employ scientific techniques in these investigations, is aimed at providing the objectivity and impartiality required in this context. But are the investigations always objective?

Analyze Formal Requirements of an Electric Vehicle Charger Locking Mechanism
This example uses a Requirements Table block to define a set of formal requirements used by a model of an electric vehicle charger locking system. After creating formal requirements for the locking system, you analyze the requirements for issues that can prevent the requirements from being complete and consistent. Once you identify the issues, you adjust the requirements.
When charging an electric vehicle, the charging port of the vehicle can be exposed to high voltages, which can be dangerous to consumers without proper safeguards. Electric chargers and vehicles deploy locking mechanisms to prevent customers from being exposed to these voltages. To ensure the locking mechanism activates and deactivates without creating hazards, the charging station provides signals to the vehicle before, during, and after charging. The vehicle uses those signals to determine when the charging cord can be unlocked and is safe to handle.
View the Formal Requirements
Open the model,
This model adapts the signals used by the charging station from the standard SAE J1772. To capture the signals, the Requirements Table block uses six input ports that are associated with input data of the same name. See Define Data in Requirements Table Blocks.
The input data are:
ChargeStatus: The charging status of the vehicle. The status indicates that the vehicle is not charging (
NotCharging), charging (
ChargeStart), shutting down (
NrmlShutDown), or performing an emergency shut down (
EvseType: If the vehicle is compatible with the charging station or not. The vehicle can be
Incompatible, or undecided (
PilotStatus: The pilot status of the charging station. The pilot status indicates if the charging station is on standby (
A), if the charging station detects the vehicle (
B), if the charging station detects the vehicle and that the vehicle is ready to charge (
C), if the charging station detects the vehicle and that the vehicle is ready for charging in a ventilated area (
D), or if there is an error (
Deach have two substates. Substate
1indicates that the charging station is not ready to charge, and substate
2indicates that the charging station is ready to charge.
SessionStopResMsg: Whether the termination of the charging session has been acknowledged by the charging station (
Received) or not (
Vinlet: The voltage of the charging port measured by the vehicle.
LockCommand: The status of the lock. The lock can either be
The block uses the value of the input data to set the Type property of the data to an enumerated value specified in a MATLAB® program file. For example, the
ChrgStat.m file contains the available statuses for the
Open the block to view the requirements. The Requirements tab lists three simple requirements:
The electric vehicle shall lock the cord in place if the electric vehicle supply equipment is compatible.
The electric vehicle shall unlock the cord if the acknowledge terminate charging session signal is received and the vehicle measures an input voltage that is less than
60V during normal shutdown procedures.
The electric vehicle shall unlock the cord if the pilot status is not ready and the vehicle measures an input voltage that is less than
60V during an emergency shutdown.
Each requirement specifies the checked conditions the Precondition column. If the requirement precondition is satisfied, the block then verifies that the appropriate locking status occurs in the postconditions, specified in the Postcondition column. For example, in the first requirement, the specified precondition checks if the vehicle type is compatible. If true, the block checks if the cord is locked, specified in the postcondition.
Analyze the Requirements for Issues
After creating a requirement set in the block, confirm that the requirements uniquely define the data captured, stored, and generated by the block. In this example, you use Simulink® Design Verifier™ to detect issues in your requirement set for you. These issues are adapted from the ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148 standard. In this example, Simulink Design Verifier detects two kinds of issues:
Inconsistency Issues: The block detects a scenario where the data can equal more than one value during simulation.
Incompleteness Issues: The block detects a scenario where the data is not defined during simulation.
To analyze the table, in the Table tab, in the Analyze section, click Analyze Table.
Update the Requirements
To resolve the issues, you need to update the requirements. For example, to alleviate the inconsistency issue, update the precondition in the first requirement so that the charge status must be charging and the charger must be compatible with the vehicle.
After updating the precondition, run the analysis again to confirm that you have fixed the inconsistency issue.
This update does not resolve the incompleteness issues. To do that, the requirements must specify values for the data defined in the block throughout the simulation. Iterate through updating and analyzing the requirements to resolve these remaining issues.
Open the model
CordLockReqTable_v2 and open the Requirements Table block to see an example of a complete requirement set.
The table includes additional input data,
ChargePlug, that specifies if the cord is plugged into the vehicle (
Plugged) or not (
NotPlugged). The requirement set also includes five additional requirements. To improve readability, the requirements have been rewritten to use additional column headers.
When you design requirements, you must consider the physical limitations of your system. For example, if you develop a requirement that specifies a diameter, you must ensure the diameter cannot be negative. To account for the physical limitations of the system, specify assumptions in the Assumptions tab. See Add Assumptions to Requirements. In this example, the Requirements Table block includes three assumptions.
If the pilot status is on standby (
A), then the car is not charging.
If the vehicle is not compatible with the charger, then the vehicle is not charging.
If the charger is not plugged in, then the vehicle is not charging.
To view the assumptions, click the Assumptions tab.
If you run the analysis on this requirement set, Simulink Design Verifier does not detect issues.

Developing an Emic Scale to Measure Ad-Evoked Nostalgia in a Collectivist Emerging Market, India
Although there has been recent interest in the measurement of advertising-evoked nostalgia, the dimensionality and generalizability of the related scales are restricted to the national/cultural boundaries of Western nations. In the present study, we develop an emic scale to measure ad-evoked personal nostalgia in an important emerging economy, India, refining and purifying the scale with seven separate studies (with a combined sample size of 1823). The resulting scale contains five dimensions: past imagery, physiological reactions, positive emotions, negative emotions and collective nostalgia. In the present study, we follow rigorous scale development procedures, and we also go beyond by comparing the effectiveness of our emic scale with a previous scale developed in France (etic), and subsequently we test our measure in another (culturally-congruent) market – Bangladesh. Our study emphasizes the need for culture-specific measures (emic), and we present important theoretical and managerial insights. © 2019 Elsevier Inc.

I was asked to write a blog post about farmers - to explain what are the difference between chalupník (chalupner, cottager), sedlák (rusticus, Bauer, farmer), who was gruntovník and so on. I'll try to do my best to explain the differences and introduce different kinds of Czech farmers.
Let's start with hide (lán in Czech). It's a historical measurement used in both Bohemia and Moravia. There were different kinds of hides used, the one used for farmers was usually about 18 hectares (45 acres) large. It was a basic measurement and farmer who owned one hide of land and more (this is important to emphasize) was called láník (Lähner in German) or celoláník (Ganzlähner, celý, ganz = whole). I usually translate it as a farmer owning one hide of land. These farmers belonged among the largest farmers among our ancestors.
Those owning three quarters of hide to one hide were called třičtvrtěláník (Dreiviertlähner or Dreiviertler in German). It means they had between 13,5 and 18 hectares of land. Those owning half to three quarter of hide were called pololáník or půlláník or půlník (Halblähner in German).
Farmers owning from one quarter to one half of hide were called čtvrtláník or čtvrtník (Viertllähner or Viertler in German). One quarter of hide was minimum to be called sedlák (farmer), but you can see (mainly in southern and south-eastern Moravia) also farmers with half of one quarter of hide, called půlčtvtník (Halbviertler). This is historical case when houses were divided between two sons and both of them received half of the quarter - you can see such houses for example in Nová Lhota (Hodonín district). For people who had very small amounts of land (or none, but worked in agriculture), see this post.
Example of house divided among two people. Nová Lhota, Hodonín district.
Those who owned less than one quarter of hide were called chalupník (Chalupner in German, usually translated as cottager). These people belonged among farming class but weren't called sedlák. Their fields quite often weren't large enough to provide enough food to the family so they were often also craftsmen.
There is one more name you will most probably see in the registries if your ancestors were from Eastern Moravia - pasekář (Passeker in German). Paseka is forest clearance and this gives us a hint how these farms were founded - by clearing part of forest and settling there. The area of such farm wasn't strictly set, so it's hard to say how much land they had - the best way to find out is to check cadastral books in archives.
Example of pasekář settlement in Držková, Zlín district. Forests are grey.
Gruntovník was anyone owning a farm. Grunt means farm house, so anyone owning such house could be called gruntovník in parish books.
Ownership of farms
The question of ownership was also raised. Were farms owned by farmers or by the domain holders? Generally, as long as serfdom existed they were owned by the domain holders even the fact that the farmers lived on one farm for centuries. The farm was often inherited in the family but it didn't mean the farm couldn't have been taken away from the family - if the farmer was a bad housekeeper the domain owner has his right to decide he is going to change the keeper of the farm.
There were several serf duties connected to the ownership of the farm - farmers paid interest out of the farm (was set during the purchase) and they were also obliged to robota, labour for the domain owner, usually on his fields. Robota was set differently for various farmers, it always depended on the area of the farm.
I definitely forgot something I wanted to mention so this post will be most probably updated in future. :)

_TAG_. Introduction
Orb-walking, essential for harassing lane enemies and chasing them down for the kill later on. So, how do you do it, and more importantly, how do you abuse its potential as effectively as possible?
_TAG_. What is orb-walking?
It's manually casting orb spells while moving alongside the enemy hero. These spells must have zero cooldown, otherwise it is not possible to orbwalk, since you're waiting for your orb to cooldown while you're chasing. Only orb spells can be used to orb-walk.
_TAG_. How to orb-walk, then?
Manually cast your orb spell, then start moving [or issue any other command] once you see the attack projectile in the air [a trick known as animation cancel].
You should be within attack range still once your hero moves, so just repeat the process until you should back off, or until enemy hero dies.
_TAG_. What are orb spells and how do they differ from normal spells?
Orb spells [usually] have 0 cd, and they will add a visual effect to your normal attack projectile, as well as enhance your attack. Although the spells have 0 cd, they still cost mana to cast, and are still affected by Silences.
One of the major differences between normal spells and orb spells is their effects on Silencer's Curse of the Silent and Last Word, on Magic Stick/Wand as well as on Harbinger's Essence Aura.
Normal spells:
a) cause Curse of the Silent to be debuffed from the hero
b) cause the caster to be silenced by Last Word
c) add a charge to Magic Stick/Wand
d) trigger Essence Aura at its normal percentage.
On the other hand, orb spells:
a) will not debuff Curse of the Silent from hero
b) will not cause the caster to be silenced by Last Word
c) does not add charges to Magic Stick/Wand
d) triggers Essence Aura, but at a decreased percentage.
_TAG_. Who can orb-walk?
As will be mentioned below, there are only 7 heroes with skills at those shown levels who can orb-walk. For now, their icons should suffice.
_TAG_. Orb-walk tactics
_TAG_. Why orb-walk if you have autocast?
Orb-walking counts as casting a spell. This has 2 major effects on your gameplay.
1. It does not draw aggro from either creeps or towers. In other words, it does not attract enemy creeps or towers to attack you, so long as your hero is not the only thing they see.
2. Orb-walking heroes usually have a shorter casting animation compared to their attack animation. This helps in chasing, especially for Viper and Drow, who both have potent orb-based slows.
That being said, you don't have to orb-walk all game long. Once your IAS exceeds your casting animation speed, you can do without orb-walking, and proceed straight to autocasting your orbs.
_TAG_. When to orb-walk?
Orb-walk is used for harrassing to good effect, and is often the way to get first blood in orb-walker lanes [Huskar and Viper are potential candidates for this].
Reasoning for Huskar/Viper first bloods - DoT. Burning Spears and Poison Attack deal damage over time to their intended targets, so you can [sometimes] safely back off before your enemy falls. Huskar and Viper also have DPS boosting skills [Berserker's Blood/Nethertoxin] which will be very helpful in dishing out the damage.
So, when to orb-walk? During the laning phase, and when chasing, you'll find that orb-walk shines. Laning is for the harassing, and chasing is for when you don't want that enemy to get away. Cast orb -> move -> cast orb again -> move -> rinse and repeat until enemy dies, or until you should back off.
_TAG_. Orb-walking v Animation canceling/ani-cancel
It is mentioned above that orb-walking involves animation canceling. However, there are differences between normal animation cancel and orbwalking.
Orbwalking uses the spell cast animation. For all of the orb-walkers, they have a cast animation which is shorter than their normal attack animation. This gives them a slight advantage in terms of chasing, since they don't spend most of their time doing some funky animation which doesn't help you.
_TAG_. How many different types of orbs are there in DotA, and which of them can be used to orbwalk?
Item-based orbs [cannot be used to orb-walk]
Lifesteal - Mask of Death, Mask of Madness, Helm of the Dominator, Satanic

Mechanical pencils
Mechanical Pencil
A mechanical pencil is a pencil containing solve pencil leads fed up with either a push mechanism or swivel mechanism. The pins typically have a thickness of 0.5 to 0.9 mm and are made of graphite powder mixed with a clay. The more graphite that is in the diocese, the softer it becomes, and vice versa. The first mechanical pencil was invented in 1914 and is usually attributed to American Charles R. Keeran, but the fact is that Japan named Tokuji Hayakawa developed the same technology basically simultaneously.


Glow-In-The-Dark Rabbits Born
Glowing Rabbits Born In Turkey, Could Help Cure Disease
The first living glowing rabbits have been born in Turkey, and one day researchers believe they could help bring affordable drug therapies to more developing countries.
The glow-in-the-dark bunnies are the product of a collaboration between the Univerwity of Hawaii at Manoa and two universities in Turkey.
Scientists used a gene from jellyfish DNA and inserted it into a rabbit's embryo, reports CBS News. While the rabbits appear completely normal and white in everyday lighting, the same isn't true under black light.
Instead, they glow bright green. While transgenic mice, cows, goats, chickens, and pigs have already been produced successfully, CBS News reports that this was the first instance of a successful transgenic rabbit.
The bunnies were conceived using in vitro fertilization (IVF) from embryos extracted from an adult female rabbit. They then inserted plasmids into the embryos in a process similar to that used in IVF human procedures.
The Los Angeles Times notes that Stefan Moisyadi, an associate professor at the University of Hawaii Manoa who worked on the glowing rabbits project, commented that the jellyfish protein won't hurt the bunnies and it also won't alter their lifespan. However, those rabbits will pass the glow-in-the-dark gene on to their offspring.
Eventually, the Turkish team, including Moisyadi, hopes to insert the jellyfish gene into larger mammals, such as sheep and cattle. The associate professor added that the scientists' "main plan was to do sheep, but they only have one or two embryos max." He added that the group currently has 10 pregnant sheep, about 25 percent of which they believe will end up glowing in the dark.
Eventually, Moisyadi hopes that the process will be used not to implant jellyfish genes, but instead to insert genes for proteins used in medications. This is because animals can make proteins in their milk that humans often use for medicine. Being able to extract useful proteins from the animals' milk would make pharmaceuticals more affordable.
But for now, the scientists are focusing on glowing rabbits.

Now, the Apple blocked code crashed with iOS devices when users wrote & # 39; Taiwan & # 39;
By Mikey Campbell
Tuesday, July 10, 2018, 9:57 p.m. PT (12:57 a.m. ET)
A blog post on Tuesday illustrates the sometimes unnoticed negative effects of modifying or adding code to an important operating system for the sole purpose of placating the government of a given market. Apple did exactly that when it eliminated the emoji of the Taiwan flag from circulation in China.
 Taiwan iOS
Source: Patrick Wardle
Patrick Wardle, head of research at Digita Security, discussed the problem causing certain iOS devices to crash into a long and somewhat technical post on his personal blog, Objective-See.
According to Wardle explains, iOS 11.3 and following contained an error that for some users of iPhone and iPad caused constant blockages when the word "Taiwan" was entered in the text fields of the application, both the first and the third parties.
The remote error would also trigger a blocking event when trying to display the emoji of the Taiwanese flag on certain devices. The process was repeatable in iMessage, Facebook and WhatsApp.
Apple patched the bug in iOS 11.4.1, citing an error report presented by Wardle earlier this year.
Certain aspects of the error are unclear, but Wardle reduced the negative effect to a "zero" pointer dereference. In particular, the problem arose when an operation removeEmoji led to a system instruction verifying the regional configuration of a device. A subsequent function collapsed under certain conditions related to the configuration of the Chinese region.
As observed by Emojipedia iOS hides the flag of Taiwan on devices installed in the region of China. This process includes removing emoji from the keyboard and rendered data, such as incoming text messages.
While the code worked for Chinese iPhones, it caused problems for some iOS devices established in other regions, or more accurately, a "state without regional support".
The ordeal underlines the length of time Apple and other companies go to appease the Chinese government. China and Taiwan have a long and conflicting relationship dating back to long before the Chinese Civil War. Taiwan considers itself as a sovereign state called the Republic of China, while the People's Republic of China (mainland China) considers Taiwan as part of its territory and sensitive to issues related to the identity of the island.
China (the People's Republic of China) is a vital market for Apple. Although the company publicly promotes a firm stance against government censorship and espionage, it has played well with the often criticized laws of the Chinese government.
Last year, for example, Apple caught the anti-aircraft service for taking out the NYT application from the Chinese app store, a move that was followed by the removal of certain VPN applications according to regulations Chinese
More recently, the company transferred Chinese iCloud data and cryptographic keys to local servers managed by Guizhou-Cloud Big Data Industry Co. Ltd., a decision criticized by privacy advocates. For its part, Apple says it advocated that iCloud is not subject to China's cyber laws, but called compliance a cost of doing business in the country.

 - Keeping all parties informed
 - Quality control to ensure that the job has been done properly
 - Managing of the workflow from start to finish ensuring closure on every issue
In most cases the Agent will act on behalf of the Landlord with the Landlord only being involved at certain stages of the process. Since this might differ from Landlord to Landlord, it is extremely important to calibrate and agree with the landlord on how the process will work and where the Landlord would want to be involved. Specifically the following needs to be agreed to:
 - Basic process workflow when a new issue needs to be managed
 - The types of maintenance that will require a quote vs just permission to attend on a call out basis.
 - The number of quotes that the Landlord would require.
 - The discretionary amount that the agent can spend to deal with emergency situations where he cannot get hold of the Landlord within a reasonable amount of time.
 - How quality control will be handled
 - How payment for work will be done (direct by the landlord or paid from the rent)
Dealing with Maintenance requires lots of communication to keep all stakeholders informed and it is extremely important to have a system in place that will make it easy to communicate via Email and / or SMS. Typical communication that might be required include the following:
 - Letting Landlords and Tenants know that a new issue has been logged
 - Letting Contractors know that a job card has been issued for their attention
 - Letting Tenants know when a Contractor has been tasked to attend to an Issue
 - Asking for quality feedback after receipt of confirmation from a Contractor that a job has been completed.
 - Keeping Landlords and Tenants updated on progress for larger jobs or where there are delays.
A good system will allow you to use templates to avoid having to retype the same messages over and over again. In addition Email threads related to the same job should preferably be saved in an email repository that will make it easy to see all related email with the click of a button.
From time to time, certain difficult maintenance situations will require special attention and it is always a good idea to discuss these upfront with the Landlord and how you intend dealing with them. Examples of these include:
Water Leaks – Slow leaks might not be detected above ground until the Landlord is confronted by a huge water account. This would then probably require leak detection to determine the exact location of the leak before it can be repaired. If the leak are on the municipal side of the water connection to the property, it might require a call to the municipality to deal with the issue. High water readings might also be caused by faulty water meters. This will require meter testing by the municipality. They would normally require you to pay upfront for the testing and will refund you if it turns out that the water meter is faulty. Dealing with these kinds of leaks is very frustrating and the cost involved when having to do leak detection or meter testing.
Process Tips when you receive a high water account and suspect a water leak:
 1. Close all water outlets on the property.
 2. Take a water meter reading.
 3. Wait an hour and take another meter reading. If there has been any usage even with all outlets closed, you have a water leak or defective water meter.
 4. Inspect your property above ground looking specifically for obvious signs of a water leak. If any of these are present, a concealed water pipe could be the source of the problem and you will need to get a plumber involved to locate and fix the leak.
 1. Wet areas above ground
 2. Damp and Paint peeling on walls
 3. Damp and stains on ceilings
 5. If after following the above process, there is still no obvious sign of where the problem is, you might have to get a Leak Detection company involved. They have specialised equipment that allows them to do a pressure test to locate the specific location of the leak.
 6. If there are still no obvious leaks, you might be dealing with a defective water meter and you will then have to log a call with the municipality to test the meter.
Blocked Drains -Traditionally blocked drains are the Tenant's responsibility with the following two exceptions:
 - If it can be proven within an agreed to grace period from taking occupation that the drain has been blocked when the tenant moved in
 - If it can be proven that the blocked drain is caused by a structural problem such as a pipe collapse or tree roots penetrating a pipe.
In order to reduce the emotional response when encountering the effects of a blocked drain, it will serve you well to implement the following countermeasures pro-actively:
 - Ensure that your Lease includes a clause stating what the grace period is for reporting blocked drains after which it should be the Tenant's responsibility.
 - Include as part of the in-going inspection that all toilets should be flushed, baths, basins and showers tested to see if the water runs away freely.
 - Specifically check for large damp areas outside that might point to outside drain problems.
Break-ins – Any break-in is an emotional issue and since it involves blatant intrusion into a tenant's private space, you can expect that questions will be asked about the general safety of the property. If the tenant does not have short term insurance, it will be an even bigger issue since it will now involve money.
In order to be prepared should this happen to you, you can consider the following:
 1. Identify security related issues and shortcomings upfront when you list the property and advise the Landlord on how to make the Property as secure as possible by adding burglar bars, security gates, fencing, alarm systems, etc.
 2. Ensure that your Lease contains a specific clause stipulating that the Tenant is responsible for his / her own short term insurance.
 3. Have an emergency number and process available that can see the Tenant over in terms of ensuring their safety until the necessary maintenance has been done to fix broken doors and windows.
Leaking Roofs – This is one of the most problematic issues since it is so unpredictable. A roof might not leak for many years and then suddenly the wind blows from a unique direction and with enough force to penetrate and expose a weakness. Many tenants can be very unreasonable when it comes to roof leaks and might demand that it be fixed immediately. The problem is that roof leaks can only be fixed reliably when the roof is dry.
You can prepare for this by considering the following:
 1. Make a point to explain the issues associated with roof leaks to the Landlord and specifically ask about potential roof leaks and if possible, get them fixed before the tenant takes occupation.
 2. Ensure that the Tenant has short term insurance and that any such sort term insurance covers resultant water damage from leaking roofs, etc.
 3. When a roof leak is reported, explain to the tenant that it can only be fixed when the roof had time to dry out. Ask the tenant to temporarily move furniture that might be affected in order to avoid unnecessary resultant damage.
 4. Make sure that you have a reliable Contractor who specialises in Leaking Roofs and that you understand the process. There is nothing more frustrating having to deal with the same leak over and over again as a result of an incompetent contractor.
Wear and Tear Issues – these issues mostly relate to the upkeep of the basic structure and involves the walls, roof structure and ceilings, window and door frames, etc. If this kind of maintenance is not done, it can lead to huge costs and might even require complete replacement. In addition, if the structure is not good, you might have to be satisfied with a reduction in rent.
Wear and tear is the change or damage to the condition of a property that happens as a result of everyday use. It is not caused by abuse or neglect. Typical examples include:
 - Some scratches on a wooden floor
 - Color of carpet of hardwood fading due to sunlight exposure
 - Dirty Grout
 - Deterioration of paint or varnish condition on walls, windows and doors as a result of exposure to the elements
 - Cracked tiles resulting from structural movement
You should proactively avoid this at all cost. Considering the following:
 - Explain to the Landlord upfront what constitutes wear and tear.
 - Give the Landlord a condition report of times that might require regular preventive maintenance together with a 5 year schedule of when what needs to be done to keep the property (his asset) in tip top condition and worthy of the rental return he expects.
 - Provide the Landlord with a saving option whereby a small amount is taken from the rent every month and put in a savings account for the Landlord in order to provide funding for preventive maintenance.
Issues involving a Sectional Title Scheme
Many rental properties form part of a sectional title scheme which means that the Landlord is no longer responsible for all the maintenance issues associated with the Property.


Bachelors Walk Dublin
Not as widely suggested named because it was used as a promenade for Bachelors, but instead was named after a property developer who built here after the quays were extended downstream from Ormond Quay in the 1670s. There has been many variants of the name over the years – Batchelours Walke (1728), The Batchelors Walk (1723 and 1728), and Bachelors Quay (1766). Before the extension of what is now O'Connell Street to the river, Bachelor's Walk extended over part of what is now Eden Quay, ending at what was Union Lane, now part of Marlborough Street. In 1914, a detachment of the King's Own Scottish Borderers, returning to barracks, fired on a crowd, killing four and injuring many other. The artist Jack B. Yeats later marked the event with the painting 'Bachelor's Walk, In Memoriam'
This quay has been heavily rebuilt since the 1980s, with only a few original buildings remaining. The majority of the buildings are poor quality pastiche attempting to recreate the variety of buildings that were here before.

Fair Play for Children Freedom of Information Survey on Playground Provision in England 2011
Fair Play for children undertook a survey of 326 English local authorities in the early part of 2011.
The Councils selected were Principal Authorities delivering discretionary leisure services, including play provision. In the main, this would include the London Boroughs, Unitary Authorities and District/Borough Councils where there are also County Councils.
School playgrounds were excluded.
The questions asked sought to establish:
There was a question about types of play area, many councils use a definition formulated by Fields in Trust, some do not, and this is recorded.
Also, estimate of acreage of play area space. This proved a challenge as some authorities either do not have a record, or their play areas in some cases are within parks and without fencing. In some cases, a figure of 400 sq metres was used in the calculation process.
Because Parish Councils also provide play areas, Councils were asked if they knew of any run by PCs, or other bodies, in their areas. Arising from this Fair Play has been in contact with the National Association of Parish Councils with a view to a non-FoI Survey (the FoI does not apply to Parish Councils) and this will be going ahead in co-operation with the NALC during the year.
Of the 326 Principal Councils surveyed, 300 responded, three mailings were necessary. Another 13 are pending with their responses and the remaining 13 have not responded at all and FP is considering complaints via the ICO.
So far as Fair Play for Children is aware, this is the first such national survey of play areas in England
A media story with comments can be viewed HERE
Furthermore, Fair Play has been able to calculate that, for the 11.2 million children aged under 16 years in England, this Principal Council provision provides 1 acre of such playsapce for every 752 children (or 692 per play area).
To provide playgrounds for 1 acre for every 100 children:
it is suggested you may wish to ensure you have checked appropriately about copyright of the information below with the Freedom of Information Officer of the relevent Council(s) before non-private use.

City pays millions for firefighter-caused blaze
While battling a warehouse fire, crews set off a second blaze that caused significant damage
MONTREAL — A Montreal suburb was fined $3.7 million after a judge declared firefighters made a warehouse fire worse by setting a second blaze.
120 firefighters responded to the September 2004 fire, which had broken out in the storage room of a foam plant, and used a chainsaw to cut a hole in the plant's ceiling across the hall from where the fire was spreading, according to the Sun News Network.
The sparks from the chainsaw ignited nearby polymers used in making Styrofoam, which caused another fire.
The resulting second blaze along with the first fire took firefighter 11 hours to extinguish, leaving significant damage to the warehouse.
Insurer's blamed the Laval Fire Department for its mistake and had sued for $9 million.
A judge agreed that the firefighters worsened the fire by using the chainsaw.
The city has not decided if it will appeal the decision.

The crown of the Queens of Bavaria
A little bit of history
In 1806, as part of his wholescale re-ordering of the map of Europe, Napoleon I of France upgraded the independant German Duchy to a full kingdom status. The former Duke of Bavaria, now King of Bavarie Maximillian I, commemorated the fact by commissioning a set of crown jewels for use by Bavarian monarchs.
Royal regalia of Bavaria
Included in the regalia were:
- The Crown of Bavaria – the King's crown, which was set with rubies, diamonds,
- emeralds, sapphires and pearls
- the Crown of the Queens of Bavaria, which was made for the then queen, Karoline of Baden and which contains huge pearls and large diamonds;
- The 96cms long State Sword;
- The Royal Orb – made of gols
- The 89cmslong Royal Sceptre set with brilliants, emeralds and sapphires and the top is surmounted by a small round crown.
As part of a republican Germany, Bavaria has not had a monarch since 1918 but the Bavarian Crown Jewels are still on show in the Treasury of the Residenz Palace in Munich

For more than 5 years Playscan AB has been actively providing Responsible Gambling solutions. Professor of Clinical Psychology at Stockholm University, Per Carlbring, with his extensive expertise within online-based self-help programs, has received funding for an independent evaluation of Playscan™.
– Playscan is a very interesting tool and we need to evaluate and analyze the true value of Playscan™ as a proactive Responsible Gambling Solution. We need to find out if and in what way it works, says Carlbring.
Per Carlbring states that it is vitally important to evaluate the effectiveness of Responsible Gambling solutions to understand the social gains and impact it might have. We need to deepen, Carlbring continues, our knowledge and methods about how to reduce the negative effects of gambling.
The Playscan CEO Ann-Sofie Olsson welcomes the evaluation and thinks that we all gain valuable information through new scientific research on how to prevent unhealthy gambling behavior. She says:
– We do recognize the importance of an independent evaluation to diagnose the reliability of what we do and understand after our 5 years in this field.

How can one determine the position of a symbol on the typeset page? Possible uses:
 - One page contains a fill-in-the-blanks text, and the opposite page contains only the solution words, each starting at the same position on the page where the blank started. The blanks on the first page should all be of equal length in order to not reveal any information. It can be assumed that the solution expressions don't overlap (and if they do, one can still manually adjust).
 - relative anchoring: One has typeset a complex diagram or equation, and one then creates a series of transformations. For example, diagram 2 is like diagram 1, but with the complex middle portion simplified so that one can focus on other parts; the relative positioning of certain outer elements of diagram 1 should be the same in diagram 2 to help the reader understand which diagram elements correspond. For this one would need to be able to obtain the coordinates of certain outer elements so that one can subtract them.

The zref package's savepos module uses \pdfsavepos that can save the (x,y) coordinate of a "label" in scaled points (sp). You can then use this to position things on another page, possibly using tikz.
Here's a small example to showcase the savepos module (take from Where is the left-hand margin? and modified slightly):
enter image description here
\usepackage[user,pagelayout,savepos]{zref}% _URL_
During page shipout, \verb|\oddsidemargin| is
\zref[oddsidemargin]{thepage}sp. (You won't be fooled)
FOO begins at (\zposx{leftanchor}sp, \zposy{leftanchor}sp)
and ends at (\zposx{rightanchor}sp, \zposy{rightanchor}sp).
From the zref documentation:
Horizontal positions by \zposx increase from left to right. Vertical positions by zposy from bottom to top.

Book Buddies Program
Ms. Jeanette Rosenberg
Book Buddies is a research-based one-on-one tutorial program that supports reading instruction in the classroom. It enlists trained community volunteers to provide instruction to first and second grade students who need extra support in literacy acquisition. The program is in its 18th year of operation in the school division. There are approximately 120 tutor-student pairs who are supervised by eight reading specialists at five elementary schools.
Volunteers are trained to become effective tutors in a two-hour group session in September and a follow-up building-level session in January. They receive additional support throughout the year by the reading specialists at each school. A published manual is made available to the new tutors.
The reading coordinators write individualized lesson plans for each tutoring session. They assess the students three times a year, participate in scheduling, and maintain communication with the students' classroom teachers.
Research data shows that students are achieving, as evidenced by increases on measures of alphabet and word recognition. The Book Buddies Program has attracted widespread national attention at reading conferences and in national and international professional journals. It has been replicated throughout Virginia and around the nation. The Book Buddies Program is the recipient of the Virginia State Reading Association's 1997 Literacy Award.

- Antiguan racer
- Antigua and Barbuda ()
The rarest snake is the Antiguan racer (Alsophis antiguae) of which fewer than 150 are now believed to exist, including those in captivity. The snake was once common in Antigua, but disappeared from the island following the introduction of non-indigenous predators, black and brown rats (Rattus rattus and Rattus norvegicus) and then the Asian mongoose (Herpestes javanicus). The racer was thought to be extinct, but in 1989 was rediscovered only on Great Bird Island off the northeast coast of Antigua. Following intense conservation programmes, the species is slowly recovering, although remains classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN (World Conservation Union) Red List 2004.

Southern Italy has Watchtowers all along the coast line. Watch the video below for the story about these towers:
Title: Italy – Watchtowers in Southern Italy
Countries: Southern Italy
What are Watchtowers? They are towers usually built of stone high enough to be seen by the next tower along the coast. When Saracens (pirates) were spotted, they would light a fire in the tower to warn everyone along the coast. The next tower would see it and light theirs and so on along the entire coastline. You might say this was the Internet of their time. Some towers had a bell as well that was rung to warn locals of the pirates coming.
The locals would gather their families and valuables and head to their sister town usually high up on a hill. These towns were fortified castle like structures that prevented the pirates from entering.


How to Install a Chandelier & a Dimmer Switch
How to Install a Chandelier & a Dimmer Switch
Danny Lipford installing a Chandelier.
Replacing a dated light fixture with a beautiful ceiling medallion and chandelier is a great way to improve the look of a room. Adding a dimmer switch is a perfect way to control the level of lighting when entertaining.
Chandelier Size
There are several methods of determining the proper size of a chandelier:
 - Room Size: The length and width of the room added together in feet should equal the diameter of the chandelier in inches. Example: a 12′ by 12′ room should have a 24″ diameter chandelier (12 + 12 = 24″).
 - Table Size: In a dining room, the diameter of a chandelier should be at least half the width of the table. Example: a 42″ wide table should have a 21″ minimum diameter chandelier (42″ ÷ 2 = 21″). Another method is to make the diameter of the chandelier no larger than the width of the table minus 12″. Example: a 42″ wide table should have a maximum 30″ diameter chandelier (42″ – 12″ = 30″).
Chandelier Height
The height of the chandelier is based on the ceiling height and location:
 - Entry Hall: The lowest point of a chandelier should be a minimum of 6½' from the floor. If possible, or with higher ceilings, hang it 7′ from the floor.
 - Dining Table: The bottom of a chandelier should be at least 30″ above the dining table (59″-62″ from floor). For ceilings higher than 8′, add 3″ for each additional foot of ceiling height. Example: With a 10′ ceiling, the bottom of the chandelier should be approximately 36″ above the top of the table.
Hanging a Chandelier
 1. Start by determining the height of the chandelier.
 1. Next, cut the support chain to length, leaving the electrical wire about 6" longer.
 1. Turn the power to the light off at the circuit breaker box and remove the old ceiling fixture.
 1. Run the wires through the trim ring and ceiling medallion, then through the hollow threaded tube in the center of the ceiling box.
 1. Attach the wires to the house wiring using wire nuts.
 1. Push the medallion and trim ring up against the ceiling, screw on the lock nut, and attach the chain.
Installing a Dimmer Switch
 1. Select a dimmer switch that has a rated capacity high enough to handle the combined wattage of all the bulbs in the chandelier added together.
 1. Turn the power off to the fixture at the breaker.
 1. Remove the cover and existing switch.
 1. Attach the dimmer to the wires using wire nuts.
 1. Fit the wires back in the box, and screw the switch to it.
 1. Replace the cover and turn on the power

Lab Fume Hoods
Fume Hoods use 3 avg. homes worth of electricity
A typical CAV hood consumes the same energy as three average houses ($2500-$3000/year).
Why do hoods consume so much energy?
Because they constantly remove conditioned air (heated or cooled) from the lab without the ability to easily turn them off when not needed. It is like heating your home in the winter with the windows and doors open. Fans also contribute to energy consumption but the loss of conditioned air is by far the largest source of energy consumption.
Fume Hood
What is a Constant Air Volume (CAV) Hood?
A CAV hood is a fume hood which removes the same volume of conditioned air (heated or cooled) from the lab whether the sash is open or closed. So regardless of whether a hood is in use (sash up) or not (sash down), the flow of air from the lab, into the hood, and exhausted from the building is the same. To prevent air velocity from increasing as the sash is closed (reducing the bottom opening to the hood), a bypass opening widens (typically behind a grill near the top of the hood) as the sash is lowered.
How does a Variable Air Volume (VAV) Hood Save Energy?
Shut the Sash
In contrast to a CAV hood, a VAV hood reduces the volume of conditioned air being removed from the lab as the sash is lowered. So when a sash is up at the maximum safe working level, the VAV hood acts like a CAV hood removing a similar volume of conditioned air as a CAV hood, but as the sash is lowered, the volume of air being removed from the lab decreases. Unlike a CAV hood, a VAV hood does not have a bypass opening. Instead, to keep the air velocity from increasing as the sash is closed, the exhaust fan slows accordingly to keep a constant air speed.
 - Keeping a sash completely closed on a VAV hood can greatly reduce the hood's energy consumption. Some say consumption can drop by up to 60%, but it really depends upon the conditions in the lab where the hood is located.
 - On CU-Boulder's campus, you can tell if your hood is VAV by looking for the "Shut the Sash!" sticker with a black hand (shown on this page).
How many fume hoods does CU-Boulder have?
 Approximately 350 CAV and 60 VAV
Are there plans in place to reduce fume hood energy consumption on campus?
Fume hoods are absolutely fundamental to lab safety. Our teaching and research activities at the same time present a major energy conservation opportunity.
Near Term Strategy:
Our goal is to educate and remind our students and lab staff to lower and close sashes when VAV hoods are not in use to save energy and conserve needed make up air in lab buildings (using educational posters and stickers). We will also work with researchers to find out if any teaching or research CAV hoods are no longer needed due to changing research requirements. If that is the case, we will offer a very simple and user friendly program as well as incentive to retire unused CAV hoods, without any compromises to safety.
Long Term Strategy:
Our goal is to create funding opportunities to replace all 350 CAV fume hoods overtime with high performance energy efficient VAV hoods. This is a major undertaking with an extremely high energy conservation opportunity with high upfront investment. While funding opportunities are being reviewed, it makes very good common sense to partner with campus EH&S as well as lab managers and researchers to decide which hoods are connected (exhausting costly conditioned air 24x7) but are not in use. Retire these idle hoods as prerequisite to our long term investment for hoods upgrade.

In the most of all statistical approaches in pattern recognition theories in remote sensing it is assumed that each probability density function of pattern classes can be approximated by the Gaussian probability density function. However, this assumption is not always appropriate in practice. The exact shape of class probability density function is supposed to be expressed as an original histogram. And if the shape of the histogram is largely different from the Gaussian function the classification results might include large error.
Therefore, there seems no need to persist in Gaussian probability density function as the only representation of class histograms. In other words, if there are other functions which can approximate the original histograms more accurately than the Gaussian function can, we would better to adopt one of those functions as a representation of a pattern class histogram.
From this point of view, a probability density function was expanded by adding another parameter to the Gaussian function so that it can approximate histograms more flexibly and still can include the Gaussian function itself as a special case.
The expanded function used here is a non-symmetric Gaussian function which has two independent standard deviations for each Side of the mode so that it can approximate the anti-symmetricity of class histogram.
In this paper some characteristics of the non-symmetric Gaussian probability density function were studied. Then the fitness to the original histogram was examined by chi-square test and compared with that of the conventional symmetric Gaussian function. The comparison between symmetric and non-symmetric function was accomplished also on the results of a test run.

View Full Version : Printing vocab list (with definitions) from LXT
01-29-2006, 07:16 AM
I was wondering how to create a vocab list with glosses from LXT. I tried using the word list manager for all the LXT words in Jonah, but couldn't figure out how to print out a list with glosses. I figured I could always use the report generator, but that's more information than I'd like.:D
01-29-2006, 11:49 AM
Hi Jake,
While you cannot create the lexicon from the LXT, you can from the BLM as it requires a morphologically tagged text.
Here are the steps:
1. Open the word list manager.
2. Select load or generate word list.
3. Select BLM and in the verse range type in Jonah.
4. This will generate the list back in the word list manager. Go to the menu/select/select all.
5. Go to file/make lexicon from selected words
6. Select the lexicons you want included.
7. You now have the file to save or print.

Mayhew is located at west of Columbus, north of Artesia, east of Starkville and south of West Point. According to the United States Geological Survey, a variant name is Mayhew Station. Mayhew Station was the original name given to this community when it was moved from its original site (near Muldrow, Mississippi) to alongside the tracks of the newly built Mobile and Ohio Railroad (later Gulf, Mobile & Ohio) in the very early 1850s. The original location of the town of Mayhew is now referred to as Old Mayhew, but only a cemetery exists there today. Mayhew held the distinction for most of the 20th Century as being home to Stover Apiaries, the world's largest Queen Bee apiary, which shipped queen bees to beekeepers worldwide.
Mayhew is also referred to as Mayhew Junction by area residents, a reference to when US Highways 82 and 45 crossed as at-grade two-lane highways. Before the construction of the new US 82 and the expansion of US 45 to four lanes, the intersection of the original highways was a four way stop, because it was quite dangerous. Several bars and service stations lined the four sides of the original intersection, and were torn down when the new expressways were built over a period of several years between 1975 and 1995.


What are military parachutes made of?
The T-10D Parachute is made of nylon materials commonly used in the manufacturing of parachutes.
What type of parachute does the military use?
The T-11 replaces the legacy T-10, which has been in use with the U.S. Army for over 50 years.
What is the best material for parachutes?
Nylon – Nylon replaced silk during the WW2 when supply of silk diminished. Nylon has since become a popular choice, as it has excellent wind resistance, good elasticity, mildew resistance, and is comparatively cheaper. The material is also lightweight and dries quickly. It is resistant to abrasion and chemicals.
What is a parachute made of?
A parachute is a device used to slow the motion of an object through an atmosphere by creating drag (or in the case of ram-air parachutes, aerodynamic lift). Parachutes are usually made out of light, strong fabric, originally silk, now most commonly nylon.
How do military parachutes work?
Effectively, the jumper drags the parachute behind him, causing the upward-rushing wind to force open and inflate the canopy. The canopy should inflate and begin supporting the jumper within 4 seconds.

How often do military parachutes fail?
Typically, about one in every thousand parachutes will experience a malfunction that requires the use of the reserve parachute.
How high do Navy Seals jump from?
HALO is an acronym for "high altitude, low opening." That means that military special forces teams will jump out at a high altitude (generally 30 to 40 thousand feet), and they'll freefall to a much lower altitude (as low as about 800 feet above the ground) before they deploy their parachutes.
Are military parachutes waterproof?
Parachutes used by some of the toughest soldiers in the British Army are in great demand – as tents and wedding decorations. … They are waterproof and wind-proof and make ideal outdoor tepees and shelters and can even be draped from the roofs and walls of buildings to convert them into stylish wedding venues.
What are the strings on a parachute called?
Parachute cord (also paracord or 550 cord when referring to type-III paracord) is a lightweight nylon kernmantle rope originally used in the suspension lines of parachutes. This cord is now used as a general purpose utility cord.
How do you make a parachute fall slower?
The larger the surface area, the more air resistance and the slower the parachute will drop. Cutting a small hole in the middle of the parachute will allow air to slowly pass through it rather than spilling out over one side, this should help the parachute fall straighter.
Who was the first person to parachute?
Leonardo da Vinci conceived the idea of the parachute in his writings, and the Frenchman Louis-Sebastien Lenormand fashioned a kind of parachute out of two umbrellas and jumped from a tree in 1783, but André-Jacques Garnerin was the first to design and test parachutes capable of slowing a man's fall from a high …

What happens if you open parachute too early?
You are likely to drift off the drop zone. The winds can be pretty heavy at high altitudes, and unless you steer continuously they may blow you off-course. Needless to say, the refrigeration effect of the wind and slipstream will make you feel even colder than the mere altitude. Your landing is likely to be rough.
Can you survive jumping out of a plane into water?
If you can dive into water, it won't feel good at 125mph, but you'll survive if the water is deep enough — at least 12 feet or so. Steer toward the water (it's helpful if you've been skydiving before and know how to steer as you are falling), and dive right in.
How fast does an airborne soldier hit the ground?
Paratroopers usually land at a speed around 13 mph, resulting in a landing force that is comparable to jumping off of a 9-12 foot wall. 4 The PLF is used to spread the forces of impact across various parts of the body instead of a single part (such as ankles). This greatly reduces your risk of injury.

Refitting track rods and ball joints
Use the nut to pull the tapered stud home.
Remove protective grease or other material from new parts. Compare them with the old ones to find which is left and which is right. Trying to screw on the wrong joint would damage both joint and rod.
To refit a ball joint to a track rod, grease the thread and screw the joint into place, giving it exactly the same number of turns as when the old joint was removed. Or screw it up to a mark you made earlier.
Do not tighten the locknut yet. Make sure the ball-joint stud is pointing straight up (or down, as appropriate) when in the middle of its travel, as the joint is flexed.
If not, twist the whole joint on the rod to bring the stud into line. Push the stud carefully through the bore in the steering arm.
If the stud revolves as you tighten the nut, jam it with a lever. Use a torque wrench later, for final tightening.
Fit the washer and locking nut to the stud, and tighten the nut to pull the tapered stud into the bore.
If a self-locking nut was used, replace it with a new one: a self-locking nut should not be used twice.
If the threads are stiff, the nut may make the stud turn so that it does not screw up.
Hold the stud by levering against the other side of the joint with a bar resting on the inside wheel rim.
Finish tightening the nut with a torque wrench set to the correct loading. If you cannot obtain the correct setting from a service manual or your local dealer, 25 lb ft (3.5 kg m) is about right.
If a castellated locknut is used, tighten it more, not less, to align one of its cut-outs with the hole for the split pin. Always use a new split pin. Insert it, prise it apart with a small screwdriver and bend the two halves opposite ways around the nut.
Hold the joint firmly while tightening the locknut.
Tighten a ball-joint locknut while you hold the ball joint firmly with a spanner or self-locking grips to stop it from turning. Otherwise the joint will be damaged.
Check that the toe-in or toe-out of the wheels is correct (See Adjusting toe alignment on wheels ). The setting is usually given in the car handbook. This check should be done by a garage if you do not have the equipment for it.

Message Translator
Camel supports the Message Translator from the EIP patterns by using an arbitrary Processor in the routing logic, by using a bean to perform the transformation, or by using transform() in the DSL. You can also use a Data Format to marshal and unmarshal messages in different encodings.
You can transform a message using Camel's Bean Integration to call any method on a bean in your Registry such as your Spring XML configuration file as follows
 .bean("myTransformerBean", "myMethodName")
Where the "myTransformerBean" would be defined in a Spring XML file or defined in JNDI etc. You can omit the method name parameter from beanRef() and the Bean Integration will try to deduce the method to invoke from the message exchange.
or you can add your own explicit Processor to do the transformation
or you can use the DSL to explicitly configure the transformation
You can also use Spring XML Extensions to do a transformation. Basically any Expression language can be substituted inside the transform element as shown below
Or you can use the Bean Integration to invoke a bean

You can also use Templating to consume a message from one destination, transform it with something like Velocity or XQuery and then send it on to another destination. For example using InOnly (one way messaging)
If you want to use InOut (request-reply) semantics to process requests on the My.Queue queue on ActiveMQ with a template generated response, then sending responses back to the JMSReplyTo Destination you could use this.

How to make the mouse left-handed in Mac OS X
This page explains step-by-step how to make the mouse left-handed in Mac OS X. Unless you have a single-button mouse, your mouse is set up for a right-handed person by default, with the primary button on the left. However, you can swap the function of the mouse buttons from the default left click, so that a right click is instead used for selection and dragging. You'll just need to remember to press the opposite button to what is called for when you are following instructions (for example, if you are requested to right-click on something).
Note: The following abbreviations for keys on the Mac are used: Ctrl is used for the Control key, Apple is used for the Command key, and Alt is used for the Option key. For keyboard access, make sure 'Full keyboard access' is turned on - you can turn it on or off by pressing Ctrl + F1 at any time.
Step 1: Open the 'Keyboard & Mouse' window
Make sure you are in 'Finder'. If necessary, press Apple + Tab to cycle through the open applications until you return to 'Finder'.
Click on the 'Apple' icon on the menu bar or press Ctrl + F2.
Click on 'System Preferences', as shown in Fig 1, or press the down arrow key to highlight it and then press Enter.
In the 'System Preferences' window (shown in Fig 2), click on the 'Keyboard & Mouse' icon, or press Tab repeatedly (you might need to press Ctrl + F7 first) to cycle through the icons until the 'Keyboard & Mouse' icon is highlighted and then press the Spacebar.
Step 2: Swap the primary and secondary mouse buttons
In the 'Keyboard & Mouse' window, make sure the 'Mouse' tab is selected. If it is not, click on it, or press Ctrl + F7 to highlight one of the tabs and then press the left or right arrow key to select it. Depending on the mouse you are using, you will see something like the window shown in Fig 3, which shows the default button settings for a right-handed person.
Click on the drop-down button to the right of the picture of the mouse and select 'Primary Button' from the list, or press Tab until the drop-down button is highlighted and then use the up and down arrow keys to scroll through the options.
Click on the drop-down button to the left of the picture of the mouse and select 'Secondary Button' from the list, or press Tab until the drop-down button is highlighted and then use the up and down arrow keys to scroll through the options.
(If you prefer to use your mouse as if it had a single button, select 'Primary Button' from the drop-down lists to both the right and the left of the picture of the mouse.)
You can also change the function of the side buttons and scroll ball (or scroll wheel), if your mouse has these.
When you are finished, click on the window's red close button or press Apple + W.


Conjunctive normal form
related topics
{math, number, function}
{law, state, case}
In Boolean logic, a formula is in conjunctive normal form (CNF) if it is a conjunction of clauses, where a clause is a disjunction of literals, where a literal and its complement cannot appear in the same clause.[citation needed] As a normal form, it is useful in automated theorem proving. It is similar to the canonical product of sums form used in circuit theory.
All conjunctions of literals and all disjunctions of literals are in CNF, as they can be seen as conjunctions of one-literal clauses and conjunctions of a single clause, respectively. As in the disjunctive normal form (DNF), the only propositional connectives a formula in CNF can contain are and, or, and not. The not operator can only be used as part of a literal, which means that it can only precede a propositional variable.
Examples and counterexamples
All of the following formulas are in CNF:
The last formula is in CNF because it can be seen as the conjunction of the two single-literal clauses A and B. Incidentally, this formula is also in disjunctive normal form. The following formulae are not in CNF:
The above three formulae are respectively equivalent to the following three formulas that are in CNF:
Conversion into CNF
Every propositional formula can be converted into an equivalent formula that is in CNF. This transformation is based on rules about logical equivalences: the double negative law, De Morgan's laws, and the distributive law.
Since all logical formulae can be converted into an equivalent formula in conjunctive normal form, proofs are often based on the assumption that all formulae are CNF. However, in some cases this conversion to CNF can lead to an exponential explosion of the formula. For example, translating the following non-CNF formula into CNF produces a formula with 2n clauses:

Average Sunshine in Alberta for February
The tables below give February averages for the number of sunny days and hours of sunshine at cities and towns in Alberta.
Each place has three measures of sunshine. The number for % Sun is the usual percentage of daylight hours with bright sunshine. Hours gives the total hours of bright sunshine that's normal this month. Days statistics are for the typical number of days in February with any amount of measurable sunshine. All the data are averages for the years 1971 to 2000.

Born in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan in 1926, he grew up in Calgary, Alberta, where he began his studies at the Provincial Institute of Technology and Art (now the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology and Art). Over the course of his career, he was known as a painter, photographer, musician, film-maker, poet and teacher. He taught at several universities during his career, retiring from the University of British Columbia in 1991.


text: Chittorgarh is very well known and famous for its natural production of custard apple. These custard apple are also called sita fal because sita (Wife of Lord Ram) had eaten these fruits. In the season of winter chittorgarh fort becomes the custard apple field. Here custard apple trees are automatically grown. These fruits are then sold to local peoples and also exported. Both indians and foreigners enjoy eating this fruit. Chittorgarh must be developed as largest custard apple hub in the world and fruit could be exported also.

End statistics with hammer
- 2+: Ends where the team scored at least two points (i.e. the team was able to capitalize the hammer).
- 1: Ends where the team scored one point (i.e. opponent forced the team to take only one point with hammer).
- 0: Ends that the team blanked with hammer.
- Steal: Ends where the opponent scored at least one point (i.e. opponent stole points without hammer).
End statistics without hammer
- Steal: Ends where the team scored at least one point (i.e. the team managed to steal points without hammer).
- 0: Ends where the opponent blanked the end with hammer.
- 1: Ends where the opponent scored one point (i.e. the team managed to force the opponent to take only one point with hammer).
- 2+: Ends where the opponent scored at least two points (i.e. the opponent managed to capitalize the hammer).
- Result avg: Average result (points for - points against)
- Hammer avg: Averate points / end in those ends where the team played with hammer.
- Without hammer avg: Average points / end where the team played without hammer.
- Hammer value: Describes the value of hammer to the average points the team scored in an end.
Remarks about statistics
Apart from the result average, last end scores have been ignored in those cases where the losing team scored points. The purpose of this is to clean the data from distortions so the statistics would describe how teams have played in "normal" situations.
Example: the winning team has given a steal of one point in the last to guarantee a victory. This end has been ignored because the situation in the game is not "normal"
