Did you know that in Vancouver you can wash your hair with soap but in Montreal you need shampoo? Why? Because Vancouver water is soft and Montreal water is hard. That makes a big difference when it comes to satisfaction with hair washing. Hard water contains dissolved calcium and magnesium ions which react with soap to form a precipitate. This is the classic "bathtub ring." The grayish deposit is bad enough on a tub, but you sure don't want it on the hair. Vancouver has very soft water and soap will suds nicely and will not leave a deposit. In Montreal, on the other hand, the calcium and magnesium in the water will react with soap and form an insoluble scum. The active ingredient in shampoo is a "detergent," which like soap is a long molecule that has one end that is attracted to water and another that dissolves in fat. Dirt is embedded in the oily layer that naturally coats the hair, and the soap or detergent molecules can remove this by anchoring one end in the oil while the other end binds to water. Rinsing then removes the oily layer and the soil it harbours. The big difference between a soap and a detergent is that the detergent does not form a precipitate with calcium or magnesium. And that's why you can use soap in Vancouver to wash your hair but not in Montreal.
Why? Because Vancouver water is soft and Montreal water is hard.

The Tax of Physics, The Physics of Tax
Stephen B. Cohen
Georgetown University Law Center
The Green Bag
Sometimes ideas from science illuminate muddled legal thinking. Physics teaches that for every particle of matter, there exists a corresponding particle of anti-matter. The idea of anti-matter helps explain the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals decision in Bradford v. Commissioner, which involved a baffling departure from established rules for taxing the discharge of a debt for less than the full amount owed.

In Access, the Max function returns the maximum of a set of values in a select query.
The syntax for the Max function is:
Max ( expression )
The expression argument represents a string expression identifying the field that contains the data you want to evaluate or an expression that performs a calculation using the data in that field. Operands in expression can include the name of a table field, a constant, or a function (not one of the other SQL aggregate functions). You can use Max to determine the largest values in a field based on the specified aggregation, or grouping.
In Access, you can use the Max function in the query design grid, in an SQL statement in SQL view of the Query window, or in an SQL statement within Visual Basic code. It is used in conjunction with the Group By clause.

Murder by Death is an American four-piece rock band from Bloomington, Indiana. Their name is derived from the 1976 Robert Moore film of the same name.
The band plays a range of music including instrumentals, rock and alt-country. They use electric cello to create a southern American, gothic sound with occasional western references.
Many songs use themes such as zombies, whiskey and the Devil which are unified into concept albums. For example, the band's second album Who Will Survive, and What Will Be Left of Them? describes a story in which the Devil wages war against a small village in Mexico.

How to Mix Glaze
 1. Make sure we have all of the materials you plan to use BEFORE mixing them together
 2. Clean two 5 gallon buckets. Make sure they are really clean! If you can find the 6 gallon bucket, use that to dry mix your ingredients
 3. Use the small triple beam scale and balance it so that the pointer is lined up with the "0" when only the container you are measuring in is sitting on the scale.
 5. Measure your materials out, keeping in mind that you will need to keep track of what you are measuring on a scrap piece of paper. For example, if you need 2700 grams of Custer Feldspar, you set the scale for 500 grams and weigh that out 5 times (making a note of each 500 gram weighing). Then do another weighing at 200 to equal 2700.
 6. Put all of your dry materials into one bucket.
 7. Dry off the glaze mixer on the end of the drill and use that to dry mix the materials until it looks like it's all the same color.
 8. Add water, mixing as you add it. Keep in mind that it's much easier to ADD water than take it out!
 9. Put the rotary sieve on the other clean bucket and sieve the glaze into that bucket.
 10. Clean the first bucket out, then sieve the glaze back into the first bucket. Sieving the glaze twice helps to mix the glaze thoroughly. You may need to add some water as the sieving process sometimes makes the glaze thicker.
 11. Thoroughly clean the sieve and any tools you used to mix the glaze.
 12. Follow the directions below to make sure you add the right amount of glaze.
The triple beam scale should balance like this


When to avoid with-redefs
with-redefs is a handy clojure.core function to use when you want to redefine one or more vars temporarily (within a block) and you want these redefinitions to apply across thread boundaries
An alternative for doing something similar is with-bindings, and that is slightly different in that the new bindings are only seen within the context of the current thread. If for example, you use with-bindings on a var and the value of the var is referenced when doing a _URL_ operation say, then it is possible you won't see the temp binding, since map is lazy and may be executed in a different thread.
Also, with-bindings requires the rebound vars are dynamic.
So… with-redefs is generally a more powerful go-to tool than with-bindings?
No, with-bindings is more generally used on vars that are planned to get rebound, whereas with-redefs is intended when you want to change the way things normally work, for example when you're running a test and decide you don't really want to call an external system, and can use with-redefs to stub.
However, beware that with-redefs is not foolproof. Consider rebinding a function foo
(with-redefs [a.b.c/foo my-temp-fn]
 ... body that calls foo at some point, possibly from another thread)
Will the body here always see your temp binding?
Why not?
Well, interleaved threads is one situation.
Let's say this code is called from two threads and this is the order of events:
Thread A executes the with-redefs
Thread B executes the with-redefs
Thread A executes the body and exits the with-redefs block (thereby restoring the root binding of foo)
Thread B now executes the body and does not see the temp binding!!
The docs for with-redefs say this is handy for tests, which implies that if you want to change a var in non-test code, then alter-var-root (assuming it is done once, on startup) is the way to go.
However, there's nothing to stop you hitting an interleaving problem in tests unless you are running your tests serially and the with-redef wraps the test body. There isn't a with-redefs-visible-only-via-this-block or equivalent.
Use with-redefs cautiously. Remember this blog post when scratching your head about why some code is not seeing a temp binding.

Design and ASIC Implementation of Root Raised Cosine Filter
Raised cosine filter is a FIR filter that can be used to counter many problems of communication such as the Inter symbol interference. The rectangular pulse occupies a large bandwidth so an alternative to rectangular pulse is a sinc pulse, which reduces the bandwidth and inter symbol interference. The rectangular pulse is passed through the root cosine filter a set of FIR filters to pulse shape the pulses to sinc. The specification of the root raised cosine FIR filter considered in this design is sampling frequency of 15.36 MHz and the cutoff frequency of 1.92 MHz, which is suitable to 3G-WCDMA.

How to Keep Your Tribal Tattoo Black
Getty Images/Getty Images Sport/Getty Images
The deep black of the ink, coupled with the design, makes tribal tattoos very striking. Over time, the tattoos fade and the blacks become more gray. This is because of several factors including sun exposure, how well the tattoo healed and the natural tendency for some inks to leach out of the skin. Taking proper care with your tattoos -- during the healing process, and long after -- can help you keep your tribal tattoos black longer.
Cover a brand new tattoo with a bandage for the first week. Wash the area, daily, with soap and water to prevent infection. An infection can cause the ink to leach out of your skin, creating holes and faded areas in the design.
Apply an antibiotic ointment immediately if the area becomes infected. Avoid alcohol or peroxide, both of which can bleach the ink or cause the ink to leach out of your skin. The faster you treat an infection, the more likely you can save the design.
Wear sunscreen over the tattoo after it heals, and avoid exposing the design to direct sunlight as much as possible. Sunlight will cause the ink to fade.
Get a touch-up from a professional tattoo artist. Taking precautions will slow down the process, but the ink will still fade over time. A professional tattoo artist can go over the tattoo and color in the faded areas.

Dyson Digital Motor
Michael Faraday invented the first electric motor in 1831 and its design has remained largely unchanged ever since. Lots of moving parts and a big, fragile fan make them unreliable. And they release carbon particles as their brushes wear down.
Dyson engineers spent seven years developing a new type of motor. Half the size and weight, the Dyson digital motor spins 88,000 times a minute - five times faster than a Formula One car engine. Fewer moving parts also means it lasts four-times longer than ordinary motors.
So far, it's being used in all our cordless machines as well as the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer.

Recall that we call a map $i: A \rightarrow X$ a cofibration if it has the homotopy extension property. We will say a pointed space $X$ is well-pointed, if the inclusion of the basepoint $\{ * \} \hookrightarrow X$ is a cofibration.
A pointed cofibration $i: A \rightarrow X$ is a based map of pointed spaces that has the homotopy extension property with respect to homotopies respecting the basepoint. Note that a cofibration is always a pointed cofibration, but the converse is not true.
It is stated in May's "Concise Course in Algebraic Topology", although not proved, that if a map of well-pointed spaces is a pointed cofibartion, then it is already a cofibration. I've been trying to do it on my own using "the box method", but it didn't lead me anywhere.
How does one go to prove such statements? Is there any general method, any useful tricks?
I assume that all spaces are compactly generated weakly Hausdorff.

This Humanoid Robot Sweats To Keep Cool While Doing Push-Ups
Now if only we could outsource our gym workouts.
Humans get hot when they work out, and so do robots. Just as our muscles generate heat when they work, a robot's motors get hot enough that heat concerns can limit their performance. To cool down, humans sweat. Now, a robot can do the same.
The conventional way to cool a robot is to either just let the heat dissipate into the air, which doesn't work well because air is a poor conductor of heat. The other solution is to add water cooling, which requires pumps, tubes, and heat-sinks to radiate away the excess heat. Now researchers at the University of Tokyo's JSK Lab have built a humanoid robot that sweats. Its name is Kengoro.
Kengoro uses his metal skeleton to sweat, and the key is, as ever these days, 3D printing. The Tokyo team 3D printed the metal bones using a process called sintering, in which powder is deposited a layer at a time and cured with a laser. The process allows the designer to vary the porosity of the metal. In the case of Kengoro's bones, they were made to allow water to permeate the metal, seeping out at a rate slow enough not to start dripping, but fast enough to evaporate and carry away excess heat along with it, just like an animal sweating.
"Usually the frame of a robot is only used to support forces," project leader Toyotaka Kozuki told IEEE Spectrum. "Our concept was adding more functions to the frame, using it to transfer water, release heat, and at the same time support forces."
The sintering process is so precise that the porosity can be varied to make permeable channels to guide the water through the skeleton. In tests, Kengoro's cooling system performed three times better than air cooling, as well as beating plain-old water circulation. It doesn't do as well as a dedicated pumped-water-with-radiators setup, but it is also a lot less bulky, and simpler.
One curious side effect of Kengoro's perspiration-based cooling is that it needs to stay hydrated. It doesn't take much, though. Just a cup of water is enough to keep Kengoro and its 108 motors cool all day long.
"In practice," writes Spectrum IEEE's Evan Ackerman, "this means that Kengoro can run at full power longer, letting it do push-ups for 11 minutes straight without burning out its motors."
I can't even imagine 11 straight minutes of pushups, but one thing's for sure. If you managed it, you'd end up smelling a lot worse than Kengoro.

We present a new formula which models the rate of decline of supernovae (SN) as given by the light curve in various bands. The physical basis is the conversion of the flux of kinetic energy into radiation. The two main components of the model are a power law dependence for the radius–time relation and a decreasing density with increasing distance from the central point. The new formula is applied to SN 1993J, SN 2005cf, SN 1999ac, and SN 2001el in different bands.

text: Korean: there are four Chinese characters used for the Yang surname, but only two are common enough to consider here; they have between them eight clans. The founding ancestor of the Ch'ŏngju Yang clan was Chinese and stayed in Korea after escorting Koryŏ, King Kongmin's future queen to Korea. The first historical ancestor of the Cheju Yang clan was a Shilla figure named Yang T'ang, but according to legend, his distant ancestor was one of three men who ascended from a cave on the north side of Cheju Island's Halla Mountain. These three men were the founders of the Yang, Pu, and Ko clans. The legendary founder of the Yang clan was named Yang Ŭl-la. Some days after their emergence, a box washed up on the shore of the island. In the box were three women, horses, cows, and agricultural seed. From these beginnings, the three established Cheju's T'amnaguk kingdom and ruled peacefully for 900 years. Later, descendants of the three men settled throughout Korea, although 40 percent of the Yang clan still live on Cheju island and in Chŏlla province.

Manuscript Preparation, Copyediting, and Proofreading
Q. If a book contains only one table, is it necessary to number it?
A. No. In that case, a number would serve no purpose. Even with many tables, numbers are not always needed. Assign numbers if the author uses them to refer to the tables elsewhere in the text, or if you think readers would find them helpful for citing—for instance, in digital publications without page numbers.


Project Management optimize
Use VBA to find late finish dates in Microsoft Project 2010
Reduce your project administration burden by using VBA code to identify late tasks within the context of your overall Microsoft Project 2010 schedule.
In my previous Microsoft Project 2010 Visual Basic programming tutorial, I demonstrated how to identify missing baseline dates from the project schedule. (Part one of this series covered how to use VBA code to extend the Ribbon UI and create a simple message.) Identifying late tasks in the project schedule is a common task that often requires filtering on baseline dates and sorting percent complete values. I prefer to gain insight into my project with a single click of a button versus setting more filters and views. In this tutorial, I show how to identify all the late tasks in your project schedule with the click of a button (Figure A). Figure A
Project schedule with late tasks (Click the image to enlarge.)
The logic includes the following steps:
1. Select the Gantt Chart view and activate the Entry table.
2. Confirm the Project Status date Microsoft Project has been set.
3. For each task in the schedule, check the Baseline Finish date to the Project Status date.
4. If the Baseline Finish date is less than the Project Status date and the Task % Complete is not 100%, then toggle the background color to yellow.
5. Select the 1st row in the schedule when the checking is complete.
To build this custom task field highlighting feature, create the VBA routine as follows in these step-by-step instructions.
Step 1: Add the menu item to the Navigation bar
Using the Visual Basic editor in the Developer tab, I'll add the Toggle Late Tasks button to the Utilities group that I created in the previous tutorial:
myNavBar = myNavBar + " "
This snippet of code will add another button to the MyTools group of buttons on the Utility tab (Figure B). Figure B
VBA editor (Click the image to enlarge.)
Step 2: Build the VBA subroutine
In the Visual Basic editor, create a new subroutine called toggleLateFinish and paste the following code:
Sub ToggleLateFinish()
'Check Project Status Date is set
If ActiveProject.StatusDate = "" Then
MsgBox "Please set the Project Status Date to toggle late tasks"
Exit Sub
End If
Dim tsks As Tasks
Dim t As Task
Dim rgbColor As Long
Dim missingBaselineCt
Set tsks = ActiveProject.Tasks
'Switch to Gantt Chart Entry View
ViewApplyEx Name:="&Gantt Chart", ApplyTo:=0
TableApply Name:="&Entry"
missingBaselineCt = 0
For Each t In tsks
If (Not t Is Nothing) And (Not t.Summary) Then
SelectTaskField Row:=t.ID, Column:="Name", RowRelative:=False
rgbColor = ActiveCell.CellColorEx
'Check for missing baseline and increment counter
If t.BaselineFinish = "NA" Then
missingBaselineCt = missingBaselineCt + 1
If t.BaselineFinish < ActiveProject.StatusDate And t.PercentComplete <> 100 Then
' Check whether the task color is white.
If rgbColor = &HFFFFFF Then
Font32Ex CellColor:=&H66FFFF 'Change the background to yellow.
Font32Ex CellColor:=&HFFFFFF 'Change the background to white.
End If
'change the background to white.
Font32Ex CellColor:=&HFFFFFF
End If
End If
End If
Next t
'Selects the top row in the table
SelectRow Row:=0, RowRelative:=False
If missingBaselineCt > 0 Then
MsgBox "There are " & missingBaselineCt & " tasks missing a baseline finish date. Set a baseline date for these tasks for accurate metrics"
End If
End Sub
Step 3: Save your file and test it

In large project schedules with filtered tasks, the project team can lose the context of the task within the overall task hierarchy. The benefit of the approach outlined in this tutorial is that you and your project team can see the late tasks within the context of the overall schedule. Download the sample code for this tutorial, and feel free to experiment with the code to change the color or highlight a different field.
In the final installment in this series, I'll show how to generate project metrics with Visual Basic programming.
This is excellent. How could a script account for late starts. The query would need focus on the Actual Start missing prior to the schedule date but I don't know what that would look like in VBA.
I would define a late start where the ActualStart is > Baseline Start, so you would adjust the IF statement: If t.ActualStart > t.BaselineStart Then (Treat that line as pseudo code as I'm typing it..vs building it into the script) If you didn't want to use VBA, you could also do a custom highlight filter Andy

Coloured wax model of a female, half skeletal, half living and dressed in regency clothing, England, _PHONE_
This lady is dressed in Regency clothing typical of the first half of the 1800s. She is skilfully created out of wax. She is half woman, half skeleton. The statue may have been made for one of three reasons: a darkly comic novelty, a 'memento mori' (a reminder of death), or a teaching aid. She is paired with a separate male statue (A78827). These two examples of regency waxwork were exhibited in Montreal, Canada at the International and Universal Exposition in 1967.

What Was the Main Religion in Colonial Pennsylvania?
In general, no primary religious group dominated in colonial Pennsylvania. Religious sects that had a strong presence in this area included Quakers and Lutherans.
Pennsylvania was officially founded in 1682 by William Penn. It represented one of the 13 original American colonies. The colony's founder considered himself a Quaker; freedom of worship for Quakers was a prominent reason for the colony's founding. Penn also strongly believed in religious tolerance for all individuals. He was one of the main voices against the oppressive Church of England. Under Penn's leadership, Pennsylvania developed into a colony that promoted and granted religious freedom. As a result, worshipers from nearly every major religious group of the time could be found in the region.

Road types and names
From waze
(Redirected from Ramps)
Jump to: navigation, search
Around the world there are many local country standards for setting the road types and names. This page serves as the redirection point for each country's road naming conventions (listed alphabetically).
Navigation instructions for unnamed segments
When Waze gives navigation instructions to "turn", "exit", or "keep" onto an unnamed segment, it will look for a name it can use. If there is a named segment further along your route, it will use (inherit) that name in the instruction. Named segments connected to the unnamed segment which are not part of your provided route, are not relevant.
The inherited name is only used in the displayed and spoken instruction prompts, it does not affect the actual name of the segment.
This always works for Freeways and Ramps .
As of January 2015, on all other road types (any road type which is not a Freeway or Ramp), this feature only works if:
 1. The combined length of the consecutive unnamed segments is shorter than 400 meters (1,312 feet),
 2. There are 3 or fewer unnamed segments in a row.
To explain the above conditions from another perspective: If the consecutive unnamed segments measured together are longer than 400 m (1,312 ft), or if there are 4 or more unnamed segments in a row, Waze will NOT show or speak a name in the instructions.
For a more detailed explanation, including side effects and usage examples, please see the Expanded Navigation instructions for unnamed segments page.


Extact latitude and longitude from eopatch
Hello everybody!
I'm new in eolearn. I executed the full example of slovinia.
In order to adapt the code to my study area I need to have the latitude and longitude of each point of an epoatch.
How could I do that please!
Hi Sophie,
You will find some useful elements in this post. Maybe _USER_ has made some progress and can give some tips?
Hi _USER_.lamare _USER_
I would like to help. But, I am still seeking the solution. There is no much documentation. I am trying to find something.
If there is any improvement it be shared.
Take a look at this stack overflow post, it should help you. You have the corner coordinates and pixel size from your eopatch, and I'm thinking you can assume zero rotation and thus use the simplified calculation.
Otherwise, I found some inbuilt eolearn functions that can help: eopatch_to_dataset & new_coordinates, but you would need to experiment with them (they are seldom used):
from eolearn.visualization.xarray_utils import eopatch_to_dataset, new_coordinates
# Convert patch to xarray
ptch = eopatch_to_dataset(eopatch)
# Get coordinates in lat lon (check the input and output CRS
# they may be different for you)
latlon = new_coordinates(ptch, CRS('32633'), CRS('4326'))

Unlike battlesuits (whose weight capacity is fixed for a particular body style), mecha may upgrade their chassis in order to increase their weight capacity.
Strength Cost Modifier Max. Weight Modifier
Standard 0 None
Heavy +50% +10%
X-Heavy +100% +20%
Super-Heavy +400% +40%
Arms & Legs
The legs of a humanoid mecha are equal to 60% of the mecha's body spaces. Therefore, each leg has 30% of the body spaces. The arms are each equal to 20% of the body spaces. For example, the legs of a light mecha (with 20 body spaces) are 6 spaces each and the arms are 4 spaces each. Leg armor is half the cost and weight of torso armor. Arm armor is one-quarter the cost and weight of torso armor. The cost and weight is rounded down to the nearest whole number.
A humanoid mecha's turret is equal to 10% of the body spaces (rounded up). It has a traverse and elevation equal to a normal human head. The costs & weights for the various sizes of humanoid mecha turrets are listed below.
Size Cost Weight Internal Spaces
2-space $2,000 200 lbs 1
3-space $3,000 300 lbs 1
5-space $5,000 500 lbs 2
8-space $8,000 800 lbs 2
10-space $10,000 1,000 lbs 3
15-space $15,000 1,500 lbs 4
20-space $20,0000 2,000 lbs 5
Power Plants
Power plants of fixed size are an in-efficient use of the space available in a mecha's torso. In order to economize on the use of this interior space, modular power plants were developed. These are of three different types; electric, nuclear battery, fusion.
Type Cost/space Weight/space DP/space Power Factors
Electric $1,000 75 lbs 2 1,000/space
Electric power plants are compact, high-capacity batteries. They may use platinum catalysts and superconductors. Extra power cells are the normal cost and weight. Electric power plants store power units equal to (DP x 100). They are expended at the rate of (PU x current speed/maximum speed x 400).
Type Cost Weight DP Power Factors
Nuclear Battery $100,000 +$5,000 per space 500 lbs +100 lbs per space Spc 2,000/space
Nuclear batteries do not sustain a fission reaction. Instead, they use arrays of thermocouples to convert the heat released by radioactive decay into electricity. Nuclear batteries last for one year. They can only be refueled at facilities specially designed for that purpose. Refueling costs 20% of the battery's cost. A nuclear battery has an armored casing with 30 DP of metal armor. Inside this casing is the core, which has 10 DP. Damage to the core will reduce the battery's power capacity by 10% for every DP lost. When the last core DP is destroyed, it will begin to leak radiation (treat as a spill of mid-level radioactive waste).
Type Cost Weight DP Power Factors
Fusion $500,000 + $50,000 per space 250 lbs + 50 lbs per space Spc 4,000/space
Fusion power plants are small-scale fusion reactors. They are experimental items only, and are being considered for use by the military. Fusion power plants have the same DP as nuclear batteries. A core breach has the effects of a hit from a heavy flamer (see Ultra-Tech Car Wars). Note that the damage is taken internally.
Acceleration, Top speed & Handling
All sizes of mecha will accelerate at the rate of 5 mph per turn. Mecha drivetrains are highly efficient (even more so than battlesuit drivetrains). Accordingly, the formula (100 x power factors/power factors + weight) is used to determine top speed. Top speeds are rounded up to the nearest 5 mph.
 Mecha of any size handle differently than tracked or wheeled vehicles. Small mecha are more maneuverable than their larger cousins, but are less stable. Conversely, larger mecha are less maneuverable than smaller mecha and more stable. Accordingly, all mecha have the following modifiers to their crash table rolls; Small/medium: +2, Large/heavy: +1, x-hvy: 0, Super-heavy: -1. Titan: -2. These modifiers are cumulative with those provided by pilot skill and mecha speed.
 Small, medium and large mecha may make any maneuver of up to D4 hazard without risk. Maneuvers of D5 or greater will force an automatic control roll. Mecha of any larger size can only perform maneuvers of up to D3 hazard without risk. An automatic control roll is required if they attempt maneuvers of D4 or greater. Failure of these rolls requires a roll on the mecha crash table.
 Mecha can operate off-road without penalty. They may also move underwater at up to half-speed (maximum of 30 mph) and half acceleration.
Mecha Crash Table
2 or less: Trivial skid. Mecha keeps same orientation, but moves 1/4" in the direction it was moving before the maneuver in which it lost control.
3-4: Minor skid. As above, but mecha skids ½". No speed is lost.
5-6: Moderate skid. Mecha skids 3/4" and decelerates by 5 mph. On the next move, it performs a trivial skid.
7-8: Major skid. Mecha skids 1" and decelerates by 10 mph. The mecha performs a minor skid on its next move.
9-10: Severe skid. Mecha turns sideways and skids 1", decelerating by 10 mph per turn. The mecha has a 50% chance per turn of falling over. If this happens, the side which hits the ground takes sideswipe damage. A mecha pilot can attempt to recover from the skid by rolling for control at HC -6. Failure means that the skid continues. Success means that the mecha stops skidding and move normally in the direction it faces.
11-12: Fall. As above, except that the mecha falls over and takes sideswipe damage (multiplied by the mecha's damage modifier). It skids 1" per inch of movement, decelerating by 10 mph per turn. The mecha may not get up until the skid is done.
13-14: As above, except that the mecha takes full ram damage on the side which hits the ground (as if it had run directly into a wall).
15 or greater: Mecha falls over (as per results of 11-12), with a 50% chance of falling to the front or back. The mecha strikes its head on the ground and takes full ram damage to it. After impact, the mecha skids 1" per turn (taking normal sideswipe damage). The pilot is stunned by the impact (roll for results on the ram concussion table) and takes 1 point of damage. The use of impact armor will prevent the damage and will add a -2 bonus to the roll for stunning effects.
 This table is also used in cases where control rolls are required because of the hazards from weapons fire or collisions. When skids are made or rolls called for, they will be done in the direction opposite from the attack.
Physical Attacks
All mecha can punch once every three turns or kick once every five turns, causing half-damage to vehicles and buildings.
Mecha Size Damage/attack
Small 4d punch/8d kick
Medium 6d punch/12d kick
Large 8d punch/16d kick
Heavy 10d punch/20d kick
X-heavy 14d punch/28d kick
Super-heavy 18d punch/36d kick
Titan 20d punch/40d kick
If a mecha kicks at a target and misses, the pilot must make a control roll to prevent his machine from falling. This roll is adjusted by the modifiers from pilot skill and mecha size.
A mecha pilot can attack targets by jumping his machine up in the air and landing on top of them. This attack is known as the "piledriver" or "death from above". Success or failure is determined by rolling 2d6 and adding the level of pilot skill. A roll of 9 or better means that the mecha has landed on top of the target, inflicting 10d damage (multiplied by the mecha's damage modifier). Failure means that the mecha misses the target and lands normally. A roll of 2-3 means that the mecha falls.
Mecha can easily lift their own body weight above their heads. If the lifted object is ½ the mecha's body weight, it can be thrown a distance of 1d-3". If the object is 1/4 the mecha's body weight or less, it can be thrown 1d+2".
Mecha use full-size versions of all types of weapons. Weapons mounted in mecha arms are automatically stabilized at no extra cost or weight. Weapons mounted in the torso may have auto-stabilizers fitted at the normal cost and weight.
Mecha weapons may have magazines mounted with them in the same location, or in an immediately-adjacent body space. For example, an autocannon mounted

Take the 2-minute tour ×
I am working on the statement " A graph $G$ is a $nKn$ (collection of $n$ number of complete graph each of order $n$) graph if and only if $\bar{G}$ is $α(G) = α(\bar{G}) = n$ and $(p-n)$-regular, where $p$ is the order of $G$ and $α(G)$ is the independence number of $G$ with $n\geqslant 1$."
The converse part seem to be a confusion. Kindly help me with it.

Perhaps you could edit the meaning of $a(G)$ into your question. – Gerry Myerson May 9 '12 at 12:58
α(G) is the independence number of G – James Alex May 9 '12 at 14:07
I'm not sure I'm understanding the question properly. Can you clarify why the graph $G$ consisting of a 3-cycle and a 4-cycle would not be a counterexample? It would seem to satisfy $n=3$, $p=7$, but it is obviously not a $3K_3$. – Will Orrick May 10 '12 at 16:48
_USER_ The graph you mentioned is 2 regular, not (7-3)=4 regular. – Graphth May 10 '12 at 20:20
_USER_ : Hmmm. I had understood that it was $\overline{G}$ that was required to be $(p-n)$-regular, rather than $G$. Perhaps this is the root of my confusion. I'm now not sure that I understand how $3K_3$ is defined. Wouldn't $p$ equal 9 in that case, and $G$ have to be 6-regular? – Will Orrick May 10 '12 at 21:41
1 Answer 1
(Extended compilation of comments.)
While it is true that the disjoint union of $n$ copies of $K_n$ has the properties
 1. $\alpha(G)=\alpha(\overline G)=n$ (where $\alpha$ is the independence number)
 2. $\overline{G}$ is $p-n$ regular (where $p$ is the number of vertices of $G$)
the converse is not true. not every graph with properties 1 and 2. Will Orrick gave the following counterexample in comments: let $G$ be the disjoint union of two cycles $C_3 $ and $C_4$; then $\alpha(G)=\alpha(\overline G)=3$ and $\overline{G}$ is $4$-regular where $4=7-3$.
Brian M. Scott then observed that if $\alpha(\overline G)=n$ is strengthened to
(*) every maximal independent set in $\overline G$ has cardinality $n$
then the conclusion $G=nK_n$ follows. Indeed, (*) says that every maximal clique of $G$ has cardinality $n$. Therefore, every vertex is contained in a copy of $K_n$. Since $G$ is $n$-regular (by virtue of 2), it is a disjoint union of some copies of $K_n$. The condition $\alpha(G)=n$ places the number of the copies of $K_n$ at $n$.

Your Answer


How many standard drinks can you have before driving if you are under 20 years old? How many standard drinks can you have before driving if you are under 20 years old?
 - A. One
 - B. Two
 - C. Three
 - D. None
 The correct answer is D
 The legal limit is 0 milligrams per 100 millilitres of blood. A drink consumed before driving will almost certainly put you over this limit. So you must not drink just before driving if you are under 20 years old as there is a zero alcohol limit.
How to calculate if you are over the legal drink driving limit
You cannot calculate your blood alcohol level because it depends on a large number of variables such as your age, weight, gender, general health and fitness, the amount of alcohol you've drunk, the type of alcohol you've drunk, and whether you've eaten (how much and how recently).
A small drink could put you over the limit. If you're stopped and your breath alcohol reading is between 30-150mcg per litre of breath you could be fined and given 50 demerit points. That means you are half way to being disqualified. You will receive a notice from NZTA that you have accumulated 50 demerit points and if this total exceeds 100 within a 2-year period you will be disqualified.
If you are caught with more than 150mcg of alcohol per litre of blood then you could be fined up to $2250 and sent to prison for up to 3 months and be disqualified from driving for at least 3 months, plus you'll still get 50 demerit points. If you are disqualified you may be able to apply for a special licence with zero alcohol or an alcohol interlock requirement.
If you blow over the limit you may be asked to provide an evidential blood or breath test. It is an offence to refuse consent.
Younger drivers tend to have less ability to cope with alcohol intake. Add to that their lack of experience and you can understand why the risk of having an accident is increased dramatically.

Witch Ladders Knot & Cord Magick
What are Witches Ladders?
A Witches Ladder is a form of Magick that is good for beginners as it doesn't need anything elaborate or any special tools, you just simply use items in your home, garden or out in nature that represents your intent, you then weave your desire or goal into using cords and charms.
You can do this time of Magick at any time, it does not need to be done in a circle or during elaborate rituals. You can however, set the tone however you see fit, with candles and incense etc.
Meditate or concentrate on your intent, visualise yourself already having achieving your goal, this is important because if you visualise yourself wanting your goal it will always be just out of your reach.
To cast a spell using a Witches Ladder, you take three pieces of String, Ribbon, Wool or Strips of cloth ideally colours relevant to your intent.
Focus on your goals and weave (braid) your desire into it, As you braid you can add tokens like feathers, charms, beads & buttons etc. you could have as few as nine, up to the more modern 40.
Once finished you can hang in you home, bury or use it for mediation similar to rosary beads.
Three strands of Cord/Wool/Ribbon (3-9ft) At least nine items relevant to your intent.
How To:
Line up your three strands and tie a knot in the top and make a loop. This binds your intent into your charm here and know that the spell has begun.
Begin weaving and every so often stopping to add a charm and a knot.
As you weave save a charm for the end, add it when you get to the last knot.
Seal the spell by yanking knot tightly with a louder So shall it be done or So mote it be.
Now hang and let it work, if long term goals then tend to it with meditating every so often.
Whilst weaving and concentrating on putting all your intent into the spell there is a very common Witches Ladder Chant which you can find in a lot of books on the subject although its origins are unclear.
By Knot of One
The spell has begun
By Knot of Two
The Magick comes true
By Knot of Three
So it shall be
By Knot of Four
This power is stored
By Knot of Five
My will shall drive
By Knot of Six
This spell I fix
By Knot of Seven
The future I leaven
By Knot of Eight
My will be fate
By Knot of Nine
What is done is mine
You do not have to use this, feel free to make your own personal chant to keep your intent pouring into the weaving, make it repetitive so you can slip into the right state of consciousness without having to think about it.

Suggested Items;
Isis the Egyptian goddess is associated with the magick of knots, it was believed she could control the weather by braiding her hair. Also the Greek Goddess of Circe, who is the goddess of agriculture, again controlling the weather by braiding her hair. Control of the weather is one of the more common uses of knot magick, especially for sailors.
Knot magick is most useful when it comes to harnessing power to be used for a later time. A good example of this would be Full moon magick knotted into a cord and released during a spell when the moon is new etc.
Healing ~ tie 9 knots in a piece of thread, tie that around the afflicted body part. wear for awhile to let the cord absorb what ails you, then remove it, untie all the knots and throw the thread into running water.
Money ~ Green cord, make nine equally spaced knots, keep the cord hanging in your home, modify chant to suit.
Releasing Hate or Anger ~ Focus all your hate or anger then tie a knot in your cord, visualise your anger all tied up in the knot, when you undo the knot, release your anger and throw the cord into fire.
You can also Bind and do Love spells which I won't add here as its not for everyone.
After your needs have been met, you can, Burn it, so that the knot can never be undone. Bury it in the Earth. Keep it in a safe place where it wont be disturbed.
To undo knot magick, just untie the knot. Warning~~ this may not always work.

Client: Colorado Springs Utilities
Task: Increase participation and representation of youth perspectives in decision-making about electricity generation.
Students conducted focus groups, interviews, and a survey to capture how area youth think about electricity production and to understand their priorities in the future. Almost 500 high school-age students participated in the different engagement methodologies, and analysis of collected data highlighted key priorities, trends, and opportunities. Additionally, a lesson plan and strategy were developed to enable long-term engagement with youth beyond the scope of this study.
Findings were delivered to the Utilities Policy Advisory Committee as a component of a comprehensive planning process. Results were subsequently used to support the weighing of different factors (cost, environmental impact, reliability, innovation etc.) in scenario planning, and also to support the ultimate adoption of a planned energy portfolio that will reduce carbon emissions from electricity generation by 90% by 2050.

Is it Time to Revisit Your Hedge Fund Structure?
A typical "master-feeder" private investment funds structure uses a combination of corporate entities, including companies, limited partnerships and/or limited liability companies. Investment managers should consider the consequences associated with choosing one form instead of another early in the structuring process.
This article contemplates a structure that involves both US and Cayman Islands-domiciled "feeder funds" and suggests that, because of the enhanced complexity of Cayman Islands companies, it may be a good time to consider structuring a "master-feeder" fund solely using limited partnerships. Furthermore, this article will:
 - describe a typical "master-feeder" structure;
 - discuss the role of directors in Cayman Islands companies, which are frequently used as offshore feeder funds in "master-feeder" structures;
 - briefly discuss increased scrutiny and potential regulation of directors; and
 - suggest some advantages of a "master-feeder" structure that does not employ directors.
Basic hedge fund structures
A "master-feeder" structure is used primarily by hedge fund managers to address investor tax and regulatory concerns, some of which are discussed below. In a typical structure, a master fund will be formed in a tax-efficient jurisdiction to serve as the primary trading vehicle. Investors invest in the master fund indirectly through a feeder fund that contributes all or substantially all of its assets to the master fund.
A few of the well-known advantages of a typical "master-feeder" structure include the following:
 - ease of trading — all investment assets and most counter-party and service agreements are held in and with one entity (i.e., the master fund);
 - fundraising flexibility — multiple feeder funds can be added to the structure to accommodate future investors with different terms and conditions; and
 - tax and regulatory flexibility — multiple feeders can be added to accommodate the tax requirements of different classes of investors.
Potential disadvantages can include the cost of establishing the entire structure, especially in the case of smaller hedge funds seeking a cost-efficient structure, as well as the accounting and administrative complexity involved in administering a master fund with multiple feeders.
The choice of fund entities and jurisdictions is largely driven by regulatory and tax considerations (and investment managers should consult tax counsel early in the structuring process):
 - US Taxable Investors: Feeder funds established in the United States, or for investors that are already subject to the US federal income tax regime, typically will be established as entities that provide "flow-through" income tax treatment for US federal income tax purposes. In such case, both the US feeder fund and the master fund will not be subject to US federal income tax and each investor will be allocated its allocable share of the master fund's gains, losses, income, deductions and credit. The US feeder fund would typically be structured as a Delaware limited partnership or Delaware limited liability company because each of these entities is treated as a "flow-through" entity for US federal income tax purposes (unless elected otherwise) and Delaware has proven itself to be a stable jurisdiction in which to conduct business.
 - Non-US Investors and US Tax-Exempt Investors: Non-US investors (to the extent they are not already subject to the US tax regime) typically will seek to avoid being subjected to US federal income tax on income that is "effectively connected" with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States and US tax-exempt investors typically will seek to avoid the potential US federal income tax consequences of recognizing "unrelated business taxable income". Feeder funds offered primarily to these investors typically will be established in a non-US jurisdiction as an entity that is taxed (or elects to be taxed) as a corporation for US federal income tax purposes (where limiting the activities of the master fund to alleviate these concerns is not ideal or practical).
The Cayman Islands is a popular jurisdiction in which to establish both offshore feeder funds and offshore master funds, in part for a number of reasons:
 - entities formed in the Cayman Islands are generally not subject to Cayman Islands tax;
 - as with Delaware, the Cayman Islands is generally considered to be a stable jurisdiction in which to conduct business and is familiar to both investors and to investment managers; and
 - the jurisdiction boasts a robust network of service providers thereby facilitating fund establishment, accounting and administration.
For these and other reasons, hedge fund managers may prefer to use a Cayman Islands exempted company (which is governed by the Companies Law (2012 revision), a Company) as the offshore feeder fund in a "master-feeder" structure and a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (which is governed by the Exempted Limited Partnership Law (2012 revision), a Partnership) as the master fund. Note that, for offshore funds, some managers may use Companies as master funds and Partnerships as offshore feeder funds. Other offshore entities, such as trusts, are sometimes used but are considered by many to be too expensive or legally rigid.
Under US federal income tax law, a Cayman Islands Partnership (as well as many other types of non-US entities that are treated as "flow-through" entities for US federal income tax purposes) may file an election with the US Internal Revenue Service (a so-called "check-the-box" election) electing to be treated as a corporation for US federal income tax purposes. A Cayman Islands Partnership that is treated as a corporation for US federal income tax purposes (i.e., by filing a "check-the-box" election) may prove, in certain situations, to be more efficient to use as an offshore feeder fund than a Cayman Islands Company. Alternatively, the investment manager may use Cayman Islands Partnerships (with no "check-the-box" elections) as the offshore master fund and offshore feeder fund and interpose an entity that is treated as a corporation for US federal income tax purposes between the offshore feeder fund and the master fund.
The role of Company Directors in a "master-feeder" structure
Companies are required to have directors (each, a Director) but investment managers, and indeed some Directors, may not understand the various legal obligations and duties associated with the position. An affiliate of the investment manager typically holds the "management shares" of a Company used in a "master-feeder" structure; "management shares" generally hold the power to appoint the Directors. Those Directors have a number of statutory duties (maintaining registers, certain reports and books of account, among others) and must approve certain actions taken by the Company. Directors (in their role as Directors) do not manage the business or make investment decisions. This is because, in the context of a Company used in a hedge fund structure, the Company hires the investment manager to run the investment program and, in the management agreement with the investment manager, the Directors delegate to the investment manager all powers permissible under governing law.
The legal role of Directors is not ministerial, however, which investment managers should consider when appointing them. Not all Director duties can be delegated to the investment manager and Directors are subject to personal liability for a breach of certain fiduciary duties, which will be discussed below. Cayman Islands case law has established a number of principles relating to Directors' fiduciary duties, perhaps the most pertinent of which is that Directors must act in what they bona fide consider to be the best interests of the Company.
This duty is owed to the Company itself, i.e. the offshore feeder fund, and not to subsidiary or affiliated entities and not necessarily to investors. In the context of a "master-feeder" structure this means that Directors primarily consider the interests of the offshore feeder fund, when structured as a Company, and not those of the master fund or any other feeder fund. If the "master-feeder" structure uses a Company for both the offshore feeder fund and the master fund, then the master fund will have Directors whose duties are owed to it and not to the offshore feeder fund. Some fund complexes use the same Directors for the offshore feeder fund and the master fund, which may give rise to irreconcilable conflicts of interest.
In the case of hedge funds, Directors are typically one of two types: "insiders" (employees of or entities controlled by the investment manager); or professional Directors that are not affiliated with or otherwise employed by the investment manager (Independent Directors). Independent Directors generally either work for a financial services company, which may perform separate administrative services to the fund complex, or work independently.
There may be costs involved in employing Directors. Independent Directors, and some insiders, are typically paid a salary for their work that is not tied to the fund's investment performance. Directors' compensation and other fees are generally paid out of the assets of the Company itself.
Increased demand for the use of Independent Directors
In the past it was fairly common for all of the Directors of a Company used in a hedge fund structure to be insiders, which is efficient because they are known to the investment manager and generally share the investment manager's views. However, investor demand for Independent Directors has increased since the financial crisis as investors seem to associate them with added security in that an Independent Director may look more carefully into the investment manager's business practices than an inside Director.
A 2011 case in the Cayman Islands, Weavering Macro Fixed Income Fund Limited (In Liquidation) v. Stefan Peterson and Hans Ekstrom, received wide attention from lawyers and investment professionals. The court found the directors of the fund guilty of a violation of their fiduciary

Abstract. Knowledge bases have become ubiquitous assets in today's Web. They provide access to billions of statements about real-world entities derived from governmental, institutional, product-oriented, bibliographic, bio-chemical, and many other domain-oriented and general-purpose datasets. The sheer amount of statements that can be retrieved for a given entity calls for ranking techniques that return the most salient, i.e., globally relevant, statements as top results.
In this paper we analyze and compare various strategies for assigning global relevance scores to DBpedia facts with the goal to derive the best one among these strategies. Some of these strategies build on complementary aspects such as frequency and inverse document frequency, yet others combine structural information about the underlying knowledge graph with Webbased co-occurrence statistics for entity pairs. A user evaluation of the discussed approaches has been conducted on the popular DBpedia knowledge base with statistics derived from an indexed version of the ClueWeb09 corpus.
The created dataset can be seen as a strong baseline for comparing entity ranking strategies (especially, in terms of global relevance) and can be used as a building block for developing new ranking and mining techniques on linked data.


Nutritional Information about Farmer Cheese
Q: What is farmer cheese, and why does it have little or no calcium?
A: Also known as dry curd cottage cheese or baker cheese, this soft cheese is made from milk that is cultured (to curdle it) and then pressed to separate out the liquid whey, leaving behind the solid curds. It has little or no calcium because the calcium drains away with the liquid. So, too, does most of the lactose (milk sugar), making it a good option for people with lactose intolerance.
In effect, farmer cheese is just cottage cheese that is pressed to remove most of the moisture. (Cottage cheese has more calcium because it retains more of the liquid.)
An ounce (two tablespoons) of farmer cheese has about 40 to 50 calories (compared to 75 to 130 in most cheeses), 2 to 3 grams of fat, 3 grams of protein and little cholesterol. It has half the calories and less than one-third the fat of regular cream cheese. Farmer cheese has less sodium than other cheeses—about 120 milligrams per ounce; no-salt-added versions are also available.
There are many variations, made from different milk sources (cow, sheep, goat) and with different textures and flavors. But the cheese is generally mild and moist, yet still dry enough to slice or crumble. You can use it as a substitute for cream cheese, ricotta or feta cheese in recipes; sprinkle it over salads; or spread it on bread.

How Did the Hot Dog Get Its Name and Where Does the Term "Hot Dog" Come From?
It would have been our guess that the term "hot dog" for the popular American comestible came into circulation, along with the item itself, during the great Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893.
Where Did the Hot Dog Get Its Name
But the New York Herald Tribune, in an editorial, "The Hot-Dog Mystery," June 2, 1931, was not able to carry the date earlier than 1900.
It hardly seems necessary to explain that the name itself is applied to a frankfurter, a highly seasoned sausage of mixed meats, usually grilled and placed in a split roll, the name being suggested by the one-time notion that the sausage was made of dog meat.
The Herald Tribune credited the invention of the concoction to one, Harry M. Stevens, caterer at the New York Polo Grounds, who at that time heated not only the frankfurter but also the roll.
However, Stevens, as reported by the Herald Tribune in his obituary, May 4, 1934, credited the name to the late T. A. Dorgan (known as "Tad," from his initials), a sports cartoonist, though unable to recall the date.
In more recent years, "hot dog" has become an exclamation expressive of surprise or approval.

This is another chance to use one of my favorite approximations ever! I first offered it as an answer to a question about how deep a platform diver will go into the water. Now is the chance to use it again!
Issac Newton developed an expression for the ballistic impact depth of a body into a material. The original idea was expressed for materials of approximately equal densities when the ballistic body is moving fast enough for the target material to behave as a fluid (think cannon ball into dirt, meteorite into lunar regolith, etc). For a human body into snow, we can assume it will behave in a granular enough fashion.
The human body has a density of roughly $985 kg/m^3$. Using the two limits for the density of snow provided in another answer to this question, snow has a density between $300$ and $900 kg/m^3$. Let's assume the characters are 5 feet tall (you can easily change the number used, it's not a complicated formula). This gives us two limiting expressions:
$$d = 5 \times 985/300 = 16.4~\text{feet}$$
$$d = 5 \times 985/900 = 5.5~\text{feet}$$
So it really would depend on the actual density of the snow, but if you assume that it starts out around $300 kg/m^3$ and can reach a maximum of $900 kg/m^3$, we can assume that the final depth will be close to the same as assuming the average value as $600 kg/m^3$ which would give:
$$d = 5 \times 985/600 = 8~\text{feet}$$
That will give you a pretty good idea of the penetration depths over that range of densities. These numbers are all pretty close to what is given assuming the ideal deceleration given by this answer.
If you want to do a much more complicated analysis of penetration depth, check out the other, more detailed answer to the platform diver question. There it is actually shown that the penetration depth approaches this Newtonian approximation pretty well! It is also interesting to note that the penetration depth does not depend on the impact velocity/original height. Assuming one is going "fast enough" for the material to behave like a fluid, the expression seems to hold.

Nice theoretical answers (I can certainly appreciate them, I'm a mathematician). But why delve into theory when experiment is available? In this video you can see a skier jump from more than 200 feet and get head first into the snow, without a helmet.
The video starts with the aftermath, if you want to see the jump right away fast forward to about 1 minute into it.

About 50 years ago in Reader's Digest there was an article about a Soviet airplane pilot who bailed out at high altitude. He fell into a snow-filled ravine and survived. If the angle of the snow is high enough it is no big deal. At Squaw Valley I have seen skiers do drops that might have been 100 feet. If the landing is steep enough it is OK. It is "flat landings" that will get you.
Rock climber Lynn Hill fell 100 feet onto a dirt slope. She not only survived, she recovered completely.
Stunt men do quite high jumps onto airbags. 100 feet onto 20 feet of snow seems possible, but I wouldn't try it if I had any alternative.
