Rhopoint IQ ( Goniophotometer ) 20°/60°
- DOI / RIQ Meter, (quantify orange peel)
- Hazemeter (reflectance haze)
- 20/60˚ Glossmeter for high gloss finishes
- Why buy an IQ, not a glossmeter?
The Rhopoint IQ quantifies surface quality problems that are invisible to a standard glossmeter and profiles how light is reflected from a surface. This incredibly advanced instrument measures: 20/60° GLOSS • HAZE• REFLECTED IMAGE QUALITY (RIQ) • DISTINCTNESS OF IMAGE (DOI) • RSPEC In practice, these terms mean: Gloss: A measurement proportional to the amount of light reflected from a surface measured at 20° (high gloss) and 60° (mid gloss) Haze: An optical effect caused by microscopic textures or residue on a surface. RIQ : Used to quantify effects such as orange peel and surface waviness. This new parameter gives higher resolution results compared to Distinctness of Image (DOI) measurement and better mimics human perception of surface texture, especially on high quality finishes such as automotive paint finish. DOI: A measure of how clearly a reflected image will appear in a reflective surface. RSPEC: The peak gloss value over a very narrow angle.

The Ultimate Glossmeter Upgrade
Haze is a common problem associated with coatings and polished materials. Surfaces with haze have a "milky" finish with a "shallow" reflected image. This important characteristic is directly measured with the Rhopoint IQ. THE RHOPOINT IQ MEASURES 20/60/85° GLOSS • RSPEC • REFLECTANCE HAZE REFLECTED IMAGE QUALITY • DISTINCTNESS OF IMAGE GONIOPHOTOMETRIC CURVES
A measurement proportional to the amount of light reflected from a surface. Geometry: The correct measurement geometry should be used according to the sample finish – matt: 85°, mid gloss: 60°, high gloss: 20°.
The peak gloss measured over a very narrow angle. Usage: It is very sensitive to surface texture and can be used to identify subtle differences in smooth surfaces.
An optical effect caused by microscopic texture or residue on a surface. Visible Symptoms: A milky finish is apparent on the surface with a loss of reflected contrast. Halos and patterns can be seen around reflections of high intensity light sources. Causes: Poor dispersion, raw material incompatibility, additive migration, vehicle quality, stoving/drying/curing conditions, polishing marks, fine scratches, ageing, oxidisation, poor cleanliness/surface residue.
Reflective Haze Compensation
The instrument compensates for reflection from within the coating for highly reflective pigments, metallic coatings and speciality pigments, allowing the haze of any painted surface to be measured
Reflected Image Quality (RIQ)
RIQ is used to quantify effects such as orange peel and surface waviness. This new parameter gives higher resolution results compared to Distinctness of Image (DOI) measurement and better mimics human perception of surface texture, especially on high quality finishes such as automotive. Symptoms of Poor RIQ: Orange peel, brush marks, waviness or other structures visible on the surface. Reflected images are distorted. Causes: Application problems, incorrect coating flow, coating viscosity too high/low, sag or flow of coating before curing, incorrect particle size/distribution, overspray, improper flash/recoat time, inter coat compatibility, incorrect cure times and cure temperature.
Distictness Of Image (DOI)
A measure of how clearly a reflected image will appear in a reflective surface.
Fast measurement of all parameters. Full on-board statistics with graphical trend analysis and reporting.
Simultaneous measurement of all parameters, results are date and time stamped.
Displays full statistics for the number of readings in the current batch.

Are Nordost cables directional?
Yes, Nordost cables are directional. This is especially true for single ended (RCA) interconnects as the shield is connected at the source or output end only.
Which way do directional arrows point on Nordost cables?
The directional arrows always point away from the source. For example, from a CD player to an amplifier, the arrows should point towards the preamplifier or power amplifier. On a speaker cable the arrows would always point towards the loudspeaker
How can cables be directional?
When cables are manufactured they do not have any directionality. However, as they break in, they acquire directionality.
Although the cable signal is an alternating current, small impurities in the conductor act as diodes allowing signal flow to be better in one direction over time. This effect is also called quantum tunneling, which has been observed in experiments over 25 years ago. Regardless of the purity of the metal used, there are still diode effects in all conductors. In addition, the insulation material will change when it is subjected to an electrical field.

Quick Tip: Understanding Multi-Value Data and the Databus
Quick Tip: Understanding Multi-Value Data and the Databus
 - Comments 1
 - Likes
I saw a question in the forums around multi-value data and how someone could pass multi-value data in to a runbook via the Initialize Data activity. I was going to answer the question there but thought it would be better to post an article to reach a broader audience. When dealing with published data on the databus, it's helpful to know exactly how multi-value data is produced and consumed so you can plan your runbooks accordingly. Actually, it's kind of simple once you understand it.
First of all, when I say multi-value data, the term refers to multiple occurrences of an activity's property or properties. You can think of this as a table, an array, or a collection, whatever suits you best. For example, if you ran the PowerShell command:
get-childitem C:\
You would get back a collection of objects, each with several properties. This is multi-value data. You can handle multi-value data in two ways: (1) You can leave it as it is in "collection" form (which is the default behavior), or you can (2) flatten it into a long string of delimited values (like a comma-delimited list).
The way you choose to handle multi-value affects the way the subsequent activities in the runbook are run. If you choose the default behavior, then the next activity will be run one time for each "row" in the data. If you choose to flatten the multi-value data, then the next activity only runs once, but usually you'll have to do your own parsing of the data to pull out relevant values.
Now here's the important part: multi-value data exists only in the activity that created it. Huh? What does that mean? It means that when an activity is triggered, it is triggered by a single instance of the data generated from an activity. Multi-value data in its true "collection" form is never sent to an activity. The next activity is triggered with a single value of that multi-value data. Therefore, the only way to pass in an entire collection of data is to have it flattened in some form first. There is no way to pass in an existing collection of multi-value data because every activity expects to receive a single item.

 - Which activities produce multi-value data? Doesnt appear to be documented. I noticed that using the Query WMI activity seems to produce flattened data with no delimiter, even if the query produces multiple results.

palatogram is an image of the region of the upper surface of the vocal tract
contacted by the tongue due to a consonant. The best way to obtain such an
image is to coat the tongue with a mixture of equal parts olive oil and
activated charcoal powder and record the resulting transfer of pigment.
The process is as follows:
- To protect the subject, one should use latex type gloves and
preferably a surgical mask.
- Mix the olive oil and the activated charcoal powder.
- Apply mixture to the speaker's whole tongue with a paintbrush
or Q-Tip. NOTE: In case of dripping, one should cover the speaker's
clothes before applying the mixture.
- Ask the speaker to produce a word that contains the target sound
(The word should not include any other sounds that make contact with the
- Use a mirror (preferably a sterilized inter-oral mirror), and
place it inside the speaker's mouth at a 45O angle with respect
to the plane of the teeth.
Fig 1: Diagram showing relative position of
the elements required to record the palatogram.
- Use a camera or video camera to photograph the mirror's
reflection of the place of articulation depicted by the imprint.
- If a video camera is used, the image can be transferred
directly to a computer for further processing as described in "How to Capture Video for use on the Mac."
- Once the image has been recorded, have the speaker rinse out
his/her mouth with lemonade (or lemon juice in water).

Dog Found Breastfeeding A Starving Abandoned Child
 YouTube/QueOpinaChileTV
The remarkable instincts of a sweet dog are being credited for helping to save the life of a young child who had been abandoned by his mother.
The 2-year-old boy was rescued last week in the Chilean village of Arica, half-clothed and in a dangerous state of malnutrition. It's unclear how long he had been left to fend for himself, but despite being deserted by his parent, the child was not completely without maternal attention.
Incredibly, the boy was discovered being cared for by a neighborhood pet, named Reina. The dog, who is pregnant with a litter of puppies, had evidently taken the starving child in as her own, nursing him with her life-giving milk, reports Estrella de Arica.
"Police were called to verify the witness's report, noting the obvious state of malnutrition of the child and verifying that he was drinking milk from a canine that was in the area, so he was moved immediately to a hospital," police captain Diego Gajardo told the paper.
According to the Associated Press, the boy was treated and later released into the custody of child services.

While Reina's actions on behalf of the child are truly remarkable, similar stories of animals breastfeeding starving children are not unheard of. Perhaps the best-known instance of this stems from ancient mythology in the story of Romulus and Remus, traditionally cited as the founders of Rome.
According to legend, the twin boys were on the verge of death after being abandoned by their mother in infancy, only to be rescued by a she-wolf who suckled them.

The Detection of Avalanche Propagation in Engineering Change
In order to avoid avalanche propagation in engineering change that is high-risk and high-cost, two methods for the detection of avalanche propagation were proposed. Firstly, analyzed the reasons for the avalanche propagation and its main features: constraint conflict and/or a great many affected elements. Then, the methods for the detection of those two features based on directed graph and complex networks respectively were proposed. Finally, the experiment of managing a type of transmission was employed to validate our method and it showed the correctness of the proposed method.

Knowledge Base Article 838454 describes the new Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM.MessageArchive object that was added to Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM.dll. Currently, the package is only available through Microsoft Support.
There are a few things that this KB Article does not describe: remember that the Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM.dll file is in the GAC. Currently, Visual Studio.NET 2003 does not allow you to add references to components in the GAC. To get past this, you can choose one alternative between these two solutions:
1 - Extract the dll from the GAC to a place where you can add reference to it (perhaps C:\)
In a DOS prompt, run the following command:
copy %systemroot%\assembly\GAC\Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM\\Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM.dll
Where has been replaced by the path to your BizTalk project's directory (for instance C:\MyProject)
2 - Manually edit the Visual Studio Project file (.csproj,.btsproj,.etc)
To add a reference to this assembly you must edit the project file (.csproj,.btproj,.etc) in a text editor. The following code snippet shows the code that must be added to the reference element of the project file to reference the assembly:
 Name = "Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM"
 AssemblyName = "Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM"
 HintPath = "\assembly\GAC\Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM\\Microsoft.BizTalk.MessageBoxOM.dll"

|The time it takes to build a home depends on many variables such as square footage, design, time of year, etc. A standard home can take between six months to a year to complete. Weather can heavily influence the speed in which construction proceeds. A very wet summer, for example, can keep your builder from pouring the foundation, which can hold up the process for months. On the other hand, once the foundation is poured and the roof installed, construction is no longer influenced by the weather.
On the other hand, completing the interior of the home is a slower process due to the interdependence of sub-contractors, such as electrical, plumbing, heating, etc. to be able to complete their portion of the work. The exterior of the home can typically move forward much faster than finishing the interior of the home.


Wire Housings & Plugs
PCB connector housings provide a receptacle for connectors when they are mounted onto a printed circuit board. PCB connectors are used to link different printed circuit boards to one another, or to allow a cable to be connected to a PCB.
How do PCB connector housings work?
PCB connector housings are molded according to the type of PCB connector they are designed to fit. The connector is mounted on to the PCB using the PCB connector housing, and the housing provides some level of protection for the connection. PCB connector housings also include space for the PCB connector contacts, to allow the current of electricity to flow.
Types of PCB connector housings
The main way in which PCB connector housings differ is in the number of contacts they accommodate. This can range from just one contact to over 100. They can also be made from a range of materials, depending on the level of protection required for the connector.

It seems like a través de and por medio de can often be used to mean the same thing. What is the difference between them, and in what contexts can you only use one or the other?

There's little (if any) semantic difference between these two constructs, as they both can express mode:
Hicieron el pago a través de transferencia bancaria.
Hicieron el pago por medio de transferencia bancaria.
and place:
Se hizo paso a través del paseo marítimo.
Se hizo paso por medio del paseo marítimo.
However in the first pair of examples, por medio sounds awkwardly more formal than a través, and in the second one, rather uncultured (if that's the right word in English).
There are cases in which por medio sounds just as acceptable as other options, but as a rule of thumb, always prefer a través de.
share|improve this answer
I would translate "a través de" as "through," and "por medio de" as "by means of," or "using." The difference is rather slight.

+1 I like that. Sometimes you can use through and by means of interchangeably, but you would never say "he drilled a hole by means of the wall" That is more or less when the two terms are different in Spanish as well. – DeStrangis Feb 22 '13 at 12:02
Perhaps you can read "por medio de" almost literally, "through the medium of". – Tony Apr 18 '14 at 22:48

Is India Falling into the Malthusian Trap?
April 30, 2008 • News
The connection between Malthus and India are twofold. For one, the country provided the fitting final stage to re-enact his theory on divergent growth pattern between population and foodgrain production even as late as the 1960s, when India was plagued by booming population growth and a diffident growth in food production.
However, there was a more tenuous connection between the economist and Indian economic history. Malthus was the first professional economist by training to teach at the college founded at Haileybury in England by the East India Company to train its young administrators on the rudiments of economic theory.

Conversion plugin phpdocx
Debugging LibreOffice
Debugging LibreOffice
If you use LibreOffice as the transformation tool for the conversion plugin and the example of the library doesn't create the output file, follow these steps to find out the source of the error:
1. Execute the LibreOffice conversion from the command-line interface.
For example, in Linux, type this:
Replace /opt/libreoffice4.3/program/soffice with the path to LibreOffice in your operating system, and replace document.docx for an existing document.
2. Execute the transformDocument example included through the CLI mode.
3. If the PDF file is generated through the CLI mode, but not with a web server like Apache, the error is due to a security or permission problem.
To call LibreOffice using Linux, the server:
 - Needs read and write permissions in the.config folder of the user's HOME directory.
 - Needs to delete the possible blockage of SELinux or the blockage of the execution settings of external programs.
So, for example, if the user of the web server is www-data, and the HOME directory of this user is the default /var/www, then you must provide the user www-data with read and write permissions in the directory /var/www/.config.
A custom HOME folder can be set when doing the transforming. For example, to set it to /home/web:
On common problems and possible errors page are detailed the most common issues when working with LibreOffice and how to solve them.
4. Check the server and system log files to detect other possible problems related to the configuration of any program or the lack of permissions.

Doll Distance Healing Spell
Because once upon a time Chinese women wouldn't undress before a doctor (even today a visit to a traditional Chinese physician rarely involves undressing), beautiful, anatomically correct naked dolls were carved from ivory. These dolls served as a communications device between doctor and patient; pain, illness, affliction, and methods of healing could be demonstrated on the doll w ith minimum embarrassment.
These dolls are still sometimes found in antique shops; reproductions are also available. Use this type of doll or craft or use a less realistic one to perform magical distance healing.
1. Hold the doll in your hands to charge it with your intentions and healing energy.
2. Murmur healing incantations and blessings over the doll.
3. Massage the doll with blended castor and olive oils, scented with essential oil of lavender.
4. Place the doll within a ring of burning healing candles.
5. Repeat as needed until the healing is complete.

A few days ago, I saw a report that many women in Shanghai expressed their minds of marrying foreign men, and some clever people started to do the business of introducing Chinese ladies to foreign men. Why these Chinese women are proud of marrying foreign men and consider it as a fashion. I think there are several reasons:
1. In Chinerse women's mind, foreign men are richer, so marrying foreign men means a lot of money. At present, China is still a developing country and not rich, so finding a foreign husband is like marrying a purse. Many Chinese women try to marry foreigners, if they can not go abroad, at least they want to marry men from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.
2. Marrying a foreign man means good social status. China now is always trying to attract foreign investors and many Chinese worship all foreign things; So marrying foreign man is naturally followed by the rise in status.
3. Marrying foreign man can meet Chinese woman's vanity. All Chinese women have vanity, marrying foreign men can achieve their own goals and please their vanity.
4. Marrying foreign man is a springboard to achieve their purpose of going abroad. Many Chinese people want to go abroad, but have few opportunities, so some marrying a foreign man can achieve their purpose of living abroad easily.
5. Chinese women think foreign men are more gentlemanly. They often learn from movies that foreign men are very polite and gentle; naturally these gentlemen attract a large number of Chinese women.
6. Marrying foreign men can meet their own freshness and curiosity. They already get used to Chinese men and are too familiar with their style, so they want to make some changes.
7. Some Chinese women build up relationships in their daily life, naturally they will marry foreign men. Some Chinese women study abroad or work in foreign-funded enterprises, so they often have chance to communicate with foreign men. Of course, women will marry foreign men after they have affections.
8. They like foreigners' living habits and customs; they want to pursue foreign life ways through international marriage. Some Chinese women begin to like foreign life style from childhood through literature or media, so they would like to achieve their purpose through marrying foreign men.
9. Chinese women think foreign countries can achieve the equality between men and women, and Chinese always have concept that men are superior to women, so they marry foreign men and hope to have equal life and work opportunities.
10. Some foreign countries put forward preferential policies to attract Chinese talents; naturally some talented Chinese women also have chances. If they move and work abroad, usually their first choice is to marry foreign men.

Conclusive Presumption Law and Legal Definition
Conclusive Presumption or absolute presumption or irrebuttable presumption of law refers to presumption which cannot be overcome or changed by any additional evidence or argument. It refers to rules of law and are usually mere fictions. Modern courts repudiate conclusive presumptions when they are not fictions. For example, a child below 7 years of age is incapable of committing a felony.


What is the opening on the NAOS side for?
We have designed a large opening on the side of NAOS, to allow you the following uses:
- drop off and pick up your child from the side in an ergonomic position (straight back and knees bent) and thus avoid back pain caused by repeated poor postures
- allow you to go to bed near your children and reassure them while they fall asleep. No need to hold her hand from the top of the bed. And you also avoid waking him up when you put him down when he is asleep...
- If you wish, you can secure the room where NAOS is located, and let your child get out of his bed according to his will, guiding him towards autonomy (Montessori). This is possible thanks to its mattress structure placed on the floor

 - C. Keep other drivers from seeing your brake light.
 The correct answer is A
 Correct. If you are indicating, drivers may think you are turning and might pull out in front of you.
Motorbike indicators
Newer bikes sometimes have self-cancelling indicators. They can work on the change in angle of the bike, a timer that turns them off after a pre-defined number of seconds, or the change in the speed differential between the front and rear wheel.
However, you should get used to doing it yourself otherwise you might get on another motorbike that doesn't have self-cancelling indicators and you'll forget and cause a problem for yourself when another vehicle pulls out in front of you thinking that you are turning.
Similarly, at the rear, there are integrated taillights and indicators available for some bikes.
Modern indicators have LEDs rather than bulbs.
Indicators come in five main types:
 1. Flush-mounted - these fit in holes in your faring and sit flush (or almost flush) with the surface
 2. Stalk - these sit out from the bike on stalks
 3. Surface-mounted - these indicators sit on the surface and can be used to cover indicator mounting holes on some models of bike.
 4. Numberplate-mounted - these indicators sit either side of your numberplate.
 5. Mirror-mounted - it's possible to get indicators integrated into your mirrors which can clean up the profile of your bike.

In Hong Kong, child poverty is a serious social problem which may lead to intergenerational poverty, but nevertheless only a few studies have examined this issue, particularly for immigrant families. Using Census data (5 %) from 1981, 1991, 2001, and 2011, we assessed child poverty rates in the past three decades and identified key variables contributing to changes in the risk of child poverty for both immigrant and local families. Our results indicate that child poverty rates in Hong Kong-born families have fluctuated between 14.3 and 15.8 % over the past three decades, while for immigrant families they have increased steadily and substantially from 18.1 % in 1981 to 36.5 % in 2001 and then to 37.5 % in 2011. We show that the increase in immigrant child poverty is associated with changes in the Hong Kong economy that have made it more difficult for such families to adapt to the host society, especially in the 1990s and that this negative effect offset the positive influence of compositional changes among this group of immigrant families in terms of parental education levels and family size. The gap between immigrant and local families in terms of child poverty risk is mainly due to the fact that during the 1990s the negative effect of contextual changes in Hong Kong was cancelled out by the beneficial impact of compositional changes for local families, but not for immigrant families where the latter effect was minimal.

About 2-coloured 6-graphs.
Let each of the 15 edges of the complete 6-graph be either red or blue. Three of the 6 nodes are said to form a "homogeneous triangle" if the three edges connecting them are of the same colour. Prove the existence of at least two homogeneous triangles.
We call two edges that meet at a node and are of different colour a "mixed pair" meeting at that node. Because at any node 5 edges meet, at most 2 * 3 = 6 mixed pairs meet at that node. Because we have 6 nodes, there are at most 6 * 6 = 36 mixed pairs. Because each mixed pair occurs in one inhomogeneous triangle and each inhomogeneous triangle contains two mixed pairs, we have at most 36 / 2 = 18 inhomogeneous triangles. The total number of distinct triangles being (6*5*4)/(3*2*1) = 20, we have at least 20 - 18 = 2 homogeneous triangles.

I have the following triggers on my users table which copies the value to email field from name field.
CREATE TRIGGER copy_name_on_insert BEFORE INSERT ON users
 SET NEW.email = NEW.name;
CREATE TRIGGER copy_name_on_update BEFORE UPDATE ON users
 SET NEW.email = NEW.name;
This trigger is working fine in local env, but in production its going into an infinite loop. Does anyone have any idea about this behaviour?
Local and Production envs are running mysql 5.5.

how is that possible? the only way is that you have infinite record which I don't think you have, or that the trigger is calling itself (recursive function) and the number of recursive call is in max_sp_recursion_depth that's not infinite. – jcho360 Jun 1 '12 at 18:56

Got this answer from our DBA.
So, this was not a recursion bug (though the error message was really bad, and looked like one). Rather, it was a memory complexity problem.
Basically, each statement must run in a limited memory space (128K in this case). While most statements fit in far less than this space, it appears that this trigger has considerably greater memory requirements.
The reason that this worked in testing is that the tests attempted were not large enough. (And the testing server likely had more memory allocated to it)
As an example, this worked in testing:
UPDATE users SET name="_EMAIL_" WHERE id=1234;
But what really runs in production is:
update users set full_name='Jason H', attr1='abc1', attr2='abc', attr3='adad'.... where id=1917;
Basically, the java/hibernate system is UPDATEing every single field... for some reason. This is pretty silly, and hibernate probably should be doing less.
The considerably greater complexity of the real query pushed it over the memory limits in production.

Wii IR camera as standalone sensor
RobotFreak's picture
Using the Wii Remote IR camera directly with an Arduino
Wii-IR-Camera-schem.pdf11.63 KB
Wii-IR-Camera-board.pdf11.3 KB
wii_remote_ir_sensor_sample.pde2.5 KB
The Wii Remote became a very intersting tool for hacking and other uses where it not has been mentioned for. After the first hacks appears in the internet a lot of people are doing great stuff with it.
This tip&walkthrough is about using the IR camera from the Wii Remote as a standalone sensor. It is based on hack of a japanese guy named kako. There also exists a Make article
This sensor is great for tracking infrared sources. It can track upto 4 sources independently and give out the coordinates and the strength ob each tracked object. The IR camera has an I2C interface which can be easy accessed by a microcontroller. Here an Arduino board has been used.
Wii Remote disassembling:
To get the IR camera out of the Wii Remote, the Wiimote must be disassembled. A Tri-Wing screw driver has been used for this task. The IR camera is on the front of the board. To get the IR sensor out a hot air gun is been usefull.
This walkthrough only works for an original Wii Remote. There exists some Wii Remote clones, which are cheaper than the original one but they have different sensors with unknown pinout, so be warned!
The schematic slightly differs from Kako's aproach, it has been taken form the CC2 ATM18 project. A quartz oscillator has been used. A frequency bettween 20..25MHz will work. Unfortunately the sensr is a 3.3V device. Some level conversion must be done before connecting it to a 5V Arduino board. The sensor gets it power source from 2 diodes in series with a 5V from the arduino board which give roughly 3.6V. 2 pullup resistors on the I2C pins limits the voltage down to 3.6.
Schematic and a board layout is atached to this article.
 - Wii Remote IR Camera (from a original Wii Remote, not a clone!!)
 - 24Mhz quartz oscillator (or 25MHz, but not a resonator!)
 - 2x diode 1N4148 or equivalent
 - 2x elecrolytic capacitor 10uF
 - 1x ceramic capacitor 100nF
 - 2x resistor 2.2kOhm
 - 1x resistor 22kOhm
 - perf board 60 x 25 mm
 - pin bar 1x4
 - pin bar 2x4
 - bar jack 2x4
The Arduino control software is also based on Kako's sources. It simply initialise the IR camera sensor and sends the readed blob information to a PC: The sourcecode has been slightly modified to work with the PC software.
The PC software is also taken from the CC2 ATM18 project and can be downloaded here.
An Arduino sketch is attached to this article. At the moment I am working on a processing sketch for graphical represantation of the Wii IR Camera output.
To be continued...

I've managed to dismantle another Wiimote properly and have soldered the sensor to a piece of perfboard.
This time, instead of having nothing, I have data flowing on my serial monitor but there are only zeroes. I have moved an IR led in front of the sensor but it doesn't change anything.
I have no oscilloscope, so I can't check precisely what's coming from the sensor. All I could achieve was a test to know if there was some voltage coming out from pins 5 to 8 and there is indeed.
I have checked the circuit and I think everything is connected correctly.
What and how can I test to ensure it's not the sensor which is broken again? :-(
zero data flows means :
1. the clock is not sufficient to drive the camera ( in my case, using 24mhz crystal, kako schematic, 74ls14, just got 3 MHz), fixed by using 74HC04 and got around 22 Mhz with 15pF capacitor, 18Mhz using 22pF
2. the reset is not correctly connected ( it's happen too. make sure you use the right 22k or 30k for reset and it got 3.3v ), fixed by make another pcb, but stilll cannot detected by wiiblobtrack, but read the position of IR correct
3. if SDA and SCL line pull up by 3.3v, use 2k2, but if 5v, use 4k7 ( yup... it happen that the data is still logic 0 because the pull-up is not sufficient )
this is my case so far about zero data flow.
to test the sensor, is put back the sensor to wiimote again... i did it about 7 times.. just solder all 8 pins, not the side pin, and test it again. hope it works
o yeah. i test it using PC, connect using bluetooth, wii whiteboard v 0.3 from johnny lee
1. I have used the updated schematics with a 24 MHz clock oscillator so I don't think there's an issue here. I would need an oscilloscope to check that. Might be my next purchase...
2. I think the reset is correctly connected.
3. I am using two pull-up resistors from 3.3 V, so it's 2k2 indeed.
I don't want to resolder the sensor to the Wiimote, it's a bit too hard to unsolder and resolder, I fear to destroy it.
I was first using the parts indicated in the schematics to get the 3.3 V (it was 3.36 actually) but to simplify I have modified the circuit and now I take it from the Arduino. Actually it's 3.28 V (the Arduino takes its power from the USB connection). Could it be an issue?
RobotFreak's picture
Did you checked the pinout of the clock oscillator? I remember CtC had a problem with his Wiimote boards using different types of clock oscillators.
Using the 3.3V from the Arduino board should be ok.
I bought another Wiimote and this time decided to solder some cables directly to the back of the Wiimote's board to test the circuit prior to unsolder the IR sensor. And it's working! So one must be really careful when unsoldering - this is yet my third dismantled Wiimote.
I can confirm that you can use the 3.3V output from the Arduino (Uno Rev. 2 in my case). Also, the pull-up resistors for SDA and SCL are not needed because the IR sensor is the only device on the I2C bus.
I'm going to try getting the blob sizes too.
Getting the z position trough blob size is easy. However the resolution is 4 bits only. Also, I have a jump between a value of 6 and a value of 15 when getting closer to the camera. I think I'll use two IR sources with constant distance and calculate the evolution of the tracked distance to infer the distance with a better resolution.
I figured out that the clock oscillator I bought is a bit different than the one shown on the diagram. Mine looks like this:As you can see it has only two pins. Is is also written "24.000 QIC" over it. Can I use this component? Can I power it with 5 V? Do I connect the other connection to the sensor's CLK input?
RobotFreak's picture
This is a crystal oscillator not a clock oscillator. But you can build a clock oscillator from it with a circuit like this (X1 is the crystal oscillator).
Kaku has been used a similar circuit with a crystal oscillator:
I decided to buy a regular quartz oscillator because components from the 74AC family are not so easy to find and are reported to create some noise if they are not properly used. Also I am also not sure the 74AC04 could be replaced by a 74HC04 because ICs of the 74AC family have a faster edge rate.
botthoughts's picture
I've used a 74HC04 with a crystal to create a clock signal, but it was a different project so can't speak to the rise/fall times.


Conditions in Oxygen: how show/hide content based on UTM tags?
Starting from version 2.4, Oxygen has a powerful and useful "Conditions" functionality. More details can be found in the official documentation. Using the conditionals feature, we can now hide or show certain site content depending on the fulfilment of conditions. This can be useful, for example, to create hidden content only for subscribers of the site, or to create paid closed sections. In addition to the 26 built-in conditions, we can now create unique conditions using the API.
Cases of using conditions may be different and are limited only by your need and imagination. In this tutorial, I want to share with you my experiment on hiding content based on UTM tags. See an example of how this works.
I'm still testing it, but it seems to be working well. And so, I tell you how to do it step by step.
Step 1
Install the Code Snippets plugin, if you haven't installed it yet. We will need to add a small amount of PHP code to register our conditions.
Step 2
Create a new snippet Snippets > Add new (for example, I called it "Testing UTM-tags", but you can give it any name you need). In the snippet field, paste the following code and save the changes:
if( function_exists('oxygen_vsb_register_condition') ) {
 oxygen_vsb_register_condition('UTM source', array('options' => array(), 'custom' => true), array('=='), 'utm_source_callback', 'UTM');
 function utm_source_callback($value, $operator) {
 if (isset($_GET['utm_source'])){
 $utm_source = $_GET['utm_source'];
 setcookie("utm_source", $utm_source, $expire);
 return oxy_condition_eval_int($utm_source, $value, $operator);
 oxygen_vsb_register_condition('UTM medium', array('options' => array(), 'custom' => true), array('=='), 'utm_medium_callback', 'UTM');
 function utm_medium_callback($value, $operator) {
 if (isset($_GET['utm_medium'])){
 $utm_medium = $_GET['utm_medium'];
 setcookie("utm_medium", $utm_medium, $expire);
 return oxy_condition_eval_string ($utm_medium, $value, $operator);
 oxygen_vsb_register_condition('UTM campaign', array('options' => array(), 'custom' => true), array('=='), 'utm_campaign_callback', 'UTM');
 function utm_campaign_callback($value, $operator) {
 if (isset($_GET['utm_campaign'])){
 $utm_campaign = $_GET['utm_campaign'];
 setcookie("utm_campaign", $utm_campaign, $expire);
 return oxy_condition_eval_string ($utm_campaign, $value, $operator);
 oxygen_vsb_register_condition('UTM content', array('options' => array(), 'custom' => true), array('=='), 'utm_content_callback', 'UTM');
 function utm_content_callback($value, $operator) {
 if (isset($_GET['utm_content'])){
 $utm_content = $_GET['utm_content'];
 setcookie("utm_content", $utm_content, $expire);
 return oxy_condition_eval_string ($utm_content, $value, $operator);
 oxygen_vsb_register_condition('UTM term', array('options' => array(), 'custom' => true), array('=='), 'utm_term_callback', 'UTM');
 function utm_term_callback($value, $operator) {
 if (isset($_GET['utm_term'])){
 $utm_term = $_GET['utm_term'];
 setcookie("utm_term", $utm_term, $expire);
 return oxy_condition_eval_string ($utm_term, $value, $operator);
In this example, I set the cookie lifetime to 5 days. This means that if a user comes to the site via a link with a UTM tag, then each time he visits the page, conditions will work until 5 days have passed, or until he clears the cookie in his browser.
If you need to set cookies for a longer or shorter period, then on each line $expire=time()+60*60*24*5; replace 5 on the value that you need (in days). To save cookies for a specific condition or not, we will configure further in the next step.
Step 3
After registering conditions at the second step, in the list of conditions in the Oxygen editor, we should have new conditions: UTM source, UTM medium, UTM campaign, UTM content and UTM term. Next, we need to adjust the conditions for hiding / showing a block with content depending on our conditions.
Suppose that we need to track the source (utm_source tag) from Google ads. Our link with the UTM can look like this:{network}&utm_content={creative}&utm_term={keyword}
Now we need to create a condition, if the source is Google, then show on the page a special block that is initially hidden.
Variant 1: without tracking cookies
In this case, the block will be shown every time, but only if the link has an UTM tags. If the user enters this same page without any tags, the block will not be shown.
Create a condition for our block by selecting from the list - UTM source and writing a word equal to the value of the tag - google.
Oxygen Conditions: how show/hide content based on UTM tags?
Save the result and check.
Thus, we can track the value of any of the UTM tags (not just utm_source).
Variant 2: with cookie tracking
In this case, the block will be shown when you first visit the link with UТM. If you refresh the page, or visit the page without the UTM tags, the block will still be shown to the user over the entire lifetime of the cookie (in our example, this is 5 days, or until the user clears the cookie itself).
To do this, we will definitely need to change the condition type to OR and add an additional standard Cookie List condition in which we need to specify the value corresponding to the value of our UTM tag:
Set type Oxygen Conditions
set cookie conditions in Oxygen
Now the block will be displayed only if the url contains the word google OR cookies contains the word google.
That's all. I hope this article has been helpful to you.
Hey. This block is shown because you clicked a link with a UTM tag. Follow the link without UTM tags and you will not see this block. For convenience of testing in this example, cookies are not recorded.
Follow the link with the UTM tag and another block will be shown in this place:
go to the link
In this article, I showed only the simplest example of how much my fantasy was enough. If you have another task, have questions or requests, write your comment below.

Functions > Formula vs Function
 1. What is a Formula?
 2. What is a Function?
 3. Formula vs Function in Excel
Formula vs Function: What is a Formula?
A formula is a mathematical sentence with at least one variable. For example 2 + 4 isn't a formula (there's no variable), but 2x + 4 is a formula, because there's a variable. Formulas are used in math to describe relationships. Variables can be any letter from a to z, but you'll want to follow some general rules for writing formulae:
 - Abbreviate variables to one letter. For example, if you have a variable for weight, shorten that to w, not we or wt. This is because when you have two variables in a formula it means to multiply them, so "wt" means "w * t".
 - Use small letters a, b, c, … z.
 - Omit the multiplication sign (unless you're multiplying two numbers like 2*4). Write 2x, not 2 * x.
 - Put the number first if you're multiplying a variable by a number. Write 2x, not x2.
Formula vs Function: Functions
In general math and beginning algebra, you work with formulas. But in calculus, you work with functions. The difference between formulas and functions is in how they are constructed: functions are a specific type of formula with exactly one output (y) for every input (x).
 - For example, if you put a "2" into the formula y = x2, there's only one output: 4. That's a function.
 - If you put a 2 into the formula x = y2, there are two possibilities for each input (x-value): 8 and -8.
Let's take a look at these graphically:
formula vs function
At x = 2, the blue function y = x2 has one output (blue star), but the formula y = x2 has two outputs (orange stars).
All functions are formulas, but not all formulas are functions.
Formula vs Function in Excel
A "function" in Excel is a predefined formula. All Excel built-in functions are also functions in the traditional sense (i.e. you'll get one output for every input).
As an example, let's say you wanted to add a string of numbers from 1 to 4. All formulas in Excel start with an equals sign "=". So you might type the formula "=1+2+3+4". You could also invoke the built in function SUM to do the same thing: =SUM(1,2,3,4).
When making small calculations like this, there isn't much of a difference between a formula and a function in Excel. Where the big difference comes in is when you're dealing with large amounts of data in cells (something which Excel was designed for). If you had 1,000 numbers in column A, it might take some time to write the formula with all the numbers from 1 to 1,000:
But you can type in a function that will add up all of the numbers between cells A1 and cells A2 in seconds:

 Hi Stephanie, thanks for putting together a great resource here, I may even pick up your book 😉
 I'm just writing to you here as I think I have spotted a typo on your types of functions page:
 I couldn't leave a reply on that particular page so I'm writing it to you here. Anyway at the top of that page it has: "1. What is a Function?
 A function is a type of equation or formula that has exactly one output (y) for every input (x). If you put a "2" into the equation x2, there's only one output: 4. Some formulas, like x = y2, are not types of functions, because there are two possibilities for each x-value (one positive and one negative)."
 I think you meant to put there are two possibilities for each y value (2 and -2), instead of each x-value.
 Kind regards,

Returns the minimum value of mbrName across XrangeList, with options to skip missing or zero
Parameter Description
SKIPNONE Includes in the operation all specified cells regardless of their content
SKIPMISSING Ignores all _TAG_ values
SKIPZERO Ignores all 0 values
SKIPBOTH Ignores all 0 and _TAG_ values
returns a single member or member combination
XrangeList Optional. A valid member name, a comma-delimited list of member names,
cross dimension members, or a member set function or range function (including
_USER_) that returns a list of members from the same dimension. If XrangeList is not specified, Essbase uses
the level 0 members from the dimension tagged as time.
 - _USER_ enables skipping of _TAG_ and 0
 values, in contrast with the _USER_ function,
 which always includes these values in the calculation.
 - _USER_ (SKIPNONE, mbrName, rangeList)
 is equivalent to _USER_ (mbrName, rangeList).
 - _TAG_ values are considered to be less than
 positive data values and more than negative data values. If the data being
 calculated includes only positive and _TAG_ values, _USER_
 returns _TAG_.
 - For all members, _USER_ returns the value calculated for
 the specified member and range list.
For both examples, assume a database similar to Sample Basic. The Measures
dimension includes two members: COGS (cost of goods sold) and OtherInc_Exp
(miscellaneous income and expenses). The data can include 0 and _TAG_ values.
For both members of the Measures dimension, the result is the same–the minimum
value for the OtherInc_Exp member across the specified range.
Example 1
Qtr1_Min = _USER_(SKIPBOTH, OtherInc_Exp, Jan:Mar);
This example ignores the 0 value for Mar and produces the following
 Jan Feb Mar Qtr1_Min
COGS _TAG_ _PHONE_ 350
OtherInc_Exp 500 350 0 350
Example 2
Qtr1_Min = _USER_(SKIPNONE, OtherInc_Exp, Jan:Mar);
This example does not ignore the 0 value in the calculation. This example
produces the following results:
 Jan Feb Mar Qtr1_Min
COGS _TAG_ _PHONE_ 0
OtherInc_Exp 500 350 0 0

Inauguration of the University
The University of Sydney was inaugurated on 11 October 1852 in premises formerly belonging to Sydney College, now Sydney Grammar School. The ceremony was reported in detail in the Illustrated London News on 29 January 1853.
The Governor of New South Wales' chair had a shield bearing the Royal Arms above it, with the arms of Oxford University to the right and those of Cambridge University to the left. Above the chair of Dr Woolley, Principal of the new university, were the arms of his old college, University College, Oxford.
The new university was represented by a blank white shield, bearing the motto "I will achieve." This, in the best traditions of heraldic puns, plays upon the notion of an achievement of arms as well as the idea of attaining a goal. The hope and expectation of achievement is enhanced by the white shield, as if it were a blank canvas ready to be filled.
A common seal, pictorial in nature, had been adopted in 1851, and served as a symbolic representation of the institution until the granting of the arms.

I'm new to VTK and I'm struggling to understand what setOrigin and setPosition mean in vtk3DProp. I'm trying to display multiple cubes ( with specific x, y, z lengths and x, y, z co-ordinates with labels) using vtkAnnotatedCubeActor. Unlike vtkCubeSource, I cannot specify a center or x, y, z lengths for vtkAnnotatedCubeActor. As I understand I can use SetOrigin, SetPosition and SetScale to achieve the result I want but I'm failing to understand how these map to each other. Can anybody explain these to me? Any help is greatly appreciated!
My two cents: setOrigin() sets the object's origin with respect to the world whose origin is 0,0,0. setPosition() sets the postion of the actor with respect to its origin. setOrigin() is very useful if your model has local coordinate systems.
For example, suppose you're modeling the Solar System. You place the Sun actor at origin=0,0,0 and position=0,0,0 so it occupies the center of the Solar System. Then you place the Earth actor 150 million km away from the Sun, but you make Earth's origin at the Sun because the former orbits the latter: origin=0,0,0 and position=150000000,0,0. Then you place the Moon actor with respect to the Earth, not the Sun and 400,000km away from the Earth: origin=150000000,0,0 and position=300000,0,0. This way, you don't need to make complicated computations to make the Moon orbit the Earth while it orbits the Sun with only global heliocentric coordinates.
setScale() will scale the XYZ values of the actor with respect to its origin. In the example above, if you apply a 2x,2x,2x scale to the Moon actor, it will double in size and end up twice further away from the Earth.
I hope this helps casting some light on the subject.

Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba)
Meadowfoam is a small, herbaceous winter-spring annual. The seven species are all native to coastal and adjoining regions of western North America, where they typically grow in marshy habitats, such as the margins of vernal pools.
The white meadowfoam Limnanthes alba is of commercial interest for its oil, while several other species are rare or endangered. Honey produced by bees that pollinate Limnanthes alba has the distinct flavor of toasted marshmallows.
The oil valued for its highly moisturizing and rejuvenating skin benefits is resistant to oxidation due to naturally occurring tocopherols.
The seeds contain 20-30% oil. Meadowfoam seed oil is extraordinarily stable, primarily because it contains over 98% long chain fatty acids (eicosenoic acid C20:1 - 61%, docosenoic acid C22:1 - 16% and docosadienoic acid C22:2 - 18% ). Meadowfoam oil is most similar to rapeseed oil. It is widely used in cosmetic and hair-care applications due to its stability, emolliency and smooth, soft skin feel.

The fitted inter-electronic repulsion and magnetic parameters vary linearly with ionic charge, i, but better linear fits are obtained with (4−i)², although the reason is unclear at present. The two-body configuration interaction parameters α and β exhibit a linear relation with [ΔE(bc)]⁻¹, where ΔE(bc) is the energy difference between the 4f² barycentre and that of the interacting configuration, namely 4f6p for La⁺, Ce²⁺, and Pr³⁺, and 5p⁵4f³ for Nd⁴⁺. The linear fit provides the rationale for the negative value of α for the case of La⁺, where the interacting configuration is located below 4f². Copyright © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Simulation of the Production of Sulfuric Acid from a Sulfur-burning Single-absorption Contact Sulfuric Acid Plant
The purpose of this work is to develop and implement an effective knowledge on simulation of process plant in HYSYS. A theoretical examination of the simulation of Sulfuric acid process plant has been demonstrated in our work. Relationship among changes on several parameters has also been studied. The burner outlet temperature shows linearly increasing relationship with the liquid sulfur temperature. Waste energy flow shows linearly decreasing relationship with the boiler outlet temperature. Flue gas temperature initially had no regular relationship with Absorber inlet temperature, but with temperature increased more than 600 Celsius it seems to decrease linearly. Flu gas pressure has no effect on Absorber inlet temperature. The mass flow of Sulfuric Acid for storage decreases linearly with the increasing temperature of moist air. The molar enthalpy of Sulfuric Acid for storage increases linearly up to 500 Celsius, and after this temperature the increase is associated linearly with higher slope. In this design HYSYS has been successfully used to design every sub-process of the sulfuric acid plant in one integrated environment. Peng-Robinson was used for liquid and vapor phase respectively as fluid package and HYSYS properties were used for simulation.

text: Contact angle hysteresis (CAH) has important implications in a variety of natural and industrial applications. The contact line motion of Cassie drops on microtextured surfaces is directly visualized using high-magnification imaging and fluorescence microscopy. The advancing contact line is observed to glide smoothly over the micro-posts, whereas the receding contact line exhibits significant stick-slip. Using simultaneous measurements of drop width and contact angle, the authors quantify stick-slip amplitude and define contact width hysteresis. A new scaling is proposed for drop roll-off angle α wherein sinα is linearly proportional to the practical work of adhesion (1 + cosθr). This study provides insight into the dynamic nature of CAH and the design of superhydrophobic surfaces with optimal drop shedding.

Kirk employs null-gravity combat against Tchar
Kirk fights Tchar using his null-gravity combat training
Zero-gravity combat training or null-gravity combat exercises were a part of standard Starfleet Academy training.
James T. Kirk and Spock conducted null-gravity combat exercises together aboard the USS Enterprise a week prior to going on the Vedala expedition.
They later employed some of their null-gravity combat training during the expedition to combat Tchar, after he activated a gravity neutralizer in the Skorr temple, forcing those on the expedition to "fly and fight as a Skorr." (TAS: "The Jihad")
In 2373/2063, when the crew of the USS Enterprise-E found out that that the Borg that had infested the ship were outside on the hull building an interplexing beacon on the ship's deflector dish, Captain Jean-Luc Picard asked Lieutenant Commander Worf if he had remembered his zero-g combat training. Worf revealed it made him sick to his stomach. Despite this, Picard, Worf and Hawk went onto the hull to stop the Borg. (Star Trek: First Contact)

A sheath voltage limiter is an arrester that is used to clamp the voltage induced on the sheath of an underground high or medium voltage cable during a fault on the system. It is common practice when applying underground cable to only ground the cable sheath at one end of the cable, and leave the other end open. Leaving one ungrounded reduces circulating currents and losses during steady state operations. IEEE standard _PHONE_ indicates that typically distribution arresters can be used for this function. IEC Application guide 60099-5 soon to be published offers a formula to use to determine the voltage rating of the arrester, but does not offer any guidance regarding the energy handling rating.
The photo below is an SVL on a 69kV underground system in Lakeland Florida. A standard distribution arrester is being used. This is the first ever SVL I have seen on a transmission line riser pole.

text: In order to gain a deep insight into the mechanism of Ni-doped Mo activated sintering process, the diffusion behavior of Mo-Ni interface was studied utilizing a Mo-Ni diffusion couple. The phase structure and composition on the diffusion layer were characterized and analyzed by means of scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope, the self diffusion coefficient and interdiffusion coefficient were calculated. The results show that a diffusion layer is formed between Mo and Ni after sintering at 1223k for 1h, which is comprised of a δ-NiMo intermetallic compound and a limit solid solution containing small amounts of nickel. The self diffusion coefficient and interdiffusion coefficient are 2.068×10-18cm2/s and 4.5×10-12cm2/s, respectively. It is suggested that the diffusion rate of Mo in δ-NiMo intermetallic compound and a limit solid solution containing small amounts of nickel is 106 times bigger than that of self diffusion, and the intermetallic compound layer provides a short diffusion path for Mo activated sintering.

Here are three examples of standard upright marble VA military grave markers that you might find in national or private cemeteries. These measure approximately 42″ x 13″ x 3″. Some of the newer ones are made of granite. Many have an optional religious symbol at the top of the marker (like the cross in the example at right). For a list of these see the Veterans Affairs website: Emblems of Belief on Government Headstones and Markers.
The two examples below are for pre-World War I grave markers. On the left is the headstone for the infamous cannibal, Alfred Packer, who was a Union Civil War veteran. On the right is one for a Spanish American War veteran. Note the way the name and regiment are enclosed in a shield on both of these markers – this was used for Union Civil War and Spanish American War soldiers. Some Confederate Civil War veterans have a symbol of the Southern Cross of Honor on their grave markers.
Photos: Alfred Packer's grave marker is from Littleton Cemetery, Littleton, Colorado; the other two are from Fort Logan National Cemetery, Denver, Colorado.


Edit Article
Countries across the world craft objects, jewelry, furniture and more based on their own customs, culture and history. If you are interested in buying crafts from a country different from your own, then you have a number of options in your town and across the world. You may also choose to buy crafts from third world countries in order to support fair trade. Buying fair trade crafts helps to prevent low wages and unfair working conditions. There are some guidelines you should follow to ensure you are buying from a country that is benefiting from your purchase. You may need to do a little Internet research to ensure you are buying the crafts you prefer. Read on to find out how to buy crafts from third world countries.
 1. 1
 Research fair trade organizations. There are a number of non-profit companies that choose to keep consumers up to date about fair trade options. These include fairtraderesource.org, chfinternational.org, and fair trade organizations of specific countries, such as fta.org.au.
 2. 2
 Decide if you want to buy crafts from a specific country. For example, you may admire the bamboo furniture from Malaysia or carvings from Africa. Search for a non-profit organization that tells you where to find shops that sell that country's goods.
 - For example, there is a Bangladesh cooperative that represents 60,000 artisans.
 3. 3
 Go to eBay or Overstock. Both of these websites have acquired companies that previously sought to promote fair trade crafts. Ebay acquired World of Good, and you can buy handcrafted gifts from third world countries at worldofgood.ebay.com.
 - Overstock.com provides a fair trade site, called _URL_-Fair-Trade. You can find anything from jewelry to furniture and more.
 4. 4
 Search for local stores that specialize in fair trade crafts. Most mid to large-sized cities have a few fair trade stores. You can often find the stories behind the manufacturers of the crafts.
 - Ask the store how they acquired the crafts. The best way to tell if you are buying from a certified fair trade, third world craft carrier is to ask how the crafts were acquired.
 5. 5
 Visit world craft museums, such as The Museum of Craft and Folk Art or the Museum of Craft and Design in San Francisco. These museums fill their gift shops with crafts that are well-crafted and distinctive. Check the museum websites for crafts that can be bought online.
 6. 6
 Visit summer markets in your town. People who have emigrated from other countries often stock booths filled with their home country's crafts. Peruvian alpaca crafts are common at summer craft markets.
 7. 7
 Visit a third world country and buy the crafts straight from the source. While this is the most expensive option, it is the best way to ensure you are buying straight from a craftsman. Research craft workshops where you can visit and buy directly after viewing the creation of the crafts.
 - For example, in St. Kitts there is a batik factory where the batiks are made and then sold. In Peru, you can visit an alpaca farm where yarn is created, died, woven and sold.
Things You'll Need
 - Summer markets
 - Internet research
 - Fair trade shops
 - Trip abroad

Why is it called a sledgehammer?
All the hammers have self-explanatory names - toffee hammer, nail hammer, claw hammer, club hammer - but why is a sledgehammer so called?
Dave, London
** Joint Definitive **
Name: Barry, Battersea
Qualification: Comes from a family of shipbuilders
Answer: I originally come from Jarrow, on the River Tyne and a lot of my family work in shipbuilding. The timber racking that held the boat upright before it reached the river was called a sledge. Inside the timber were big oak wedges, which needed to be knocked out to launch the boat. These were hit with a big hammer, which was then called a sledgehammer.
** Joint Definitive **
Name: Marcus
Answer: When they build big boats, they build them on big sledges that go down into the sea. They are chocced up to make sure they don't slide into the sea and they knock those big chocs out with hammers, which are called sledgehammers.

The workshop below was written by Kathryn Hurley at Google and is a brilliant guide to how to get started with Fusion tables.
Fusion Tables is a modern data management web application making it easy to host, manage, collaborate on, visualize, and publish data tables online. Follow the steps below to upload your own data to Fusion Tables and create a map!
Embed Map Visualization in web page
Google Maps API Fusion Tables Layer
- Download the zip file here: zip.
- Unzip. Zip file includes:
- population.csv – Population data for zip codes around the bay area
- embedded_map.html – Basic HTML page
- Go to Google Docs
- If you have not already created a Google account, create a Google account and then sign in
- Select Create -> Table (Beta)
- Click Choose File.
- Browse to find the population.csv file.
- Click Next >>.
- Click Next >> again.
- Update the Table name to Bay Area Population. Add any attribution data and/or change the description.
- Click Finish.
- The file will upload to Fusion Tables. Here's an example of what the table will look like in Fusion Tables:_URL_
Now that you have the Bay Area population data in Fusion Tables, we're going to merge with a table containing the zip code boundaries. Fusion Tables has special handling for KML (Keyhole Markup Language) that is used to represent geographical features such as points, lines and polygons / boundaries. The table containing zip code boundaries has two columns we are interested in: one for the zip code labeled "name" and one labeled "geometry" where each cell has KML for the corresponding boundary. We can use these boundaries to represent the locations when they are put on the map, otherwise they will only be points on the map.
- Make sure you have the Population table open in your browser.
- In the Population table, select Merge.
- Paste the following URL in the Text box under Merge with: _URL_
- Click the Get button.
- Select the columns you want to merge on. Make sure the radio button next to Zip is selected in the left column, and select the radio button next to name in the right column. These columns both have zip codes in the same format. Merge works by looking for exact string matches in the selected columns and then linking matching rows together.
- Enter a table name for your merged table in the text box next to Save as a new table named. Suggested name: Bay Area Population merged with KML.
- Click Merge tables.
- Select Visualize > Map. You may initially see "data loading" messages. Wait a minute and zoom in or refresh to see the correct images.
- Click on one of the polygons on the map to see what is displayed in the InfoWindow.
Now let's customize the content in the InfoWindow.
- Click on Configure info window.
- Deselect all checkboxes except for the 2 next to Zip and Population. Notice how the HTML in the right panel is updated as you do this.
- Select the Custom tab.
- Update the HTML to the following:
- Click Save.
- Click on one of the zip code boundaries. The InfoWindow content should be similar to the following:94403Population: 37919
Now add some styling to the map to create an interesting visualization of the data.
- Click Configure styles.
- Select Fill color under Polygons in the left column.
- Select the Gradient tab.
- Select the radio button next to Show a gradient.
- In the drop-down menu next to Column, select Population.
- In the text box next to Through, enter the number 90900.
- Select any colors you want in the drop-down menus or keep the default.
- Click Save when done.
- The map will be updated with the new style.
- Click the Share button in the top right corner.
- Select the radio button next to Unlisted or Public. The visibility will be updated immediately on selection.
- Close the window.
- Open the embedded_map.html file using a Text Editor (please ensure Rich Text Format is off). This file is in the zip file you downloaded at the beginning of this tutorial.
- Go to Map visualization page for the example create above (if you have closed the window, find the table in your docs list at docs.google.com, reopen it and click on Visualize -> Map)
- Click on "Get embeddable link". You should see the following (your table id will be different):
- Select the text in the box "". Copy the text.
- Go to the embedded_map.html text editor and paste the select text below the line "Bay Area Population with Embedded Map". The file should now look like:
- Save the file and open it in a browser. You should now see:
- First, find the Table ID for your table. You can do this by:
- Selecting File > About. The Table ID is the value next to Numeric ID:.
- Open the map.html file using a Text Editor (please ensure Rich Text Format is off). This file is in the zip file you downloaded at the beginning of this tutorial.
- Find the line that reads:var tableid = XXXXXX;
- Replace the XXXXXX with your Table ID.
- Review the code. The code creates a new Map and a FusionTablesLayer to display on the Map.
- Save your updates.
- Open the map.html file in a browser. You should see your Fusion Table data on the map.
- Now, update the query sent to the Fusion Table Layer to include a filter. To do so add the "where" clause below, just after line 40 as follows:
select: 'geometry',from: tableid,
where: 'Population > 40000′
- Shape Escape: _URL_ Escape allows you to upload shape files to Fusion Tables. Simply go to shpescape.com and select the zipped shape file you want to upload. Shape Escape creates a Fusion Table with the shape file data for you!
- FusionTablesLayer Builder: _URL_ a few steps beyond the built-in "Get embeddable code" feature, FusionTablesLayer Builder generates all the code necessary to include a Google Map with a Fusion Table Layer on your own website.

Determine the point at which the electric field is zero.

 Determine the point( other than infinity) at which the electric field is zero.
 * ---------- *
 One point particle denoted Q1 = -2.50e-3 C and Q2 = 6.00 e-3 C
 the distance of separation is 1.00 m..
 I am not sure how to determine R, s.t. my Electric field is Zero.
 2. jcsd
 3. Sep 13, 2006 #2
 Do you know what R is?
 4. Sep 13, 2006 #3
 We are suppose to determine a distance which will produce an electric field that is zero. I happen to choose R..maybe that was a bad letter to represent a variable.
 5. Sep 13, 2006 #4
 Oh no. R is fine. I asked you what [itex] R [/itex] is, because [itex] R [/itex] should be a scalar (ie the distance) from something. Now [itex] R [/itex] could be the distance from anything, but would probably be the distance from the one of the charges.
 For example if you had this configuration below
 |<----- 1m -------->|
 Then if you wanted the distance from (-q) called R, you would have:
 R<------- (-q)---------------(q)
 Now the distance from (q) would be R+1m
 do you see why it's important?
 6. Apr 30, 2009 #5
 doin this question now myself, honestly doesnt make much sense to me to have an electrice field equal to zero unless we added another charge partical to cancel out.

 There isn't any reason why you would need a third charge here. The electric field scales as 1/r^2. Ignoring the spatial relationship between the two charges, you only need to find two distances such that the field from charge one is equal and opposite to the field of charge two. Keeping in mind that the E field is a vector, it's not hard to arrange the two charges arbitrarily to have a point of null field.
 Now with this problem, the two charges are fixed in relation to eachother. So the first thing is to setup up an equation for the total field using a single vector to represent the distance instead of two. FrogPad shows one such way to do this. Now, you could have a situation where you can't have any nulls, but I think we can assume that it will not be the case. Don't forget that the electric field is a vector, not just a scalar.

This study quantifies the sensitivity to the soft tissue artefacts of three open-source musculoskeletal models implemented in OpenSim.
Musculoskeletal models estimates can be heavily affected by the soft tissue artefact (STA) when input positional data are obtained using stereophotogrammetry. In this study, we assessed the sensitivity to the STA of three open-source musculoskeletal models and relevant tools, implemented in OpenSim. To this purpose, a baseline dataset of marker trajectories was created using point kinematics for each model from experimental data of one healthy volunteer's gait. Five hundred STA realizations were then statistically generated using a marker-dependent model of the pelvis and lower limb artefact and added to the baseline data. The STA's impact on the musculoskeletal model estimates of an inverse dynamics pipeline (joint angles, joint moments, and muscle and joint contact forces) was finally quantified using a Monte Carlo analysis.


Many tobaccos that Whole Leaf Tobacco sells can be prepared for Shisha/Hookah use with minimal effort.
First off – the difference between the word Shisha and Hookah need not be a mystery. Some websites will tell you that Hookah is the glass pipe, and Shisha is the tobacco that goes inside, but that is incorrect. The difference is the origin of the word. Hookah is the Hindi word for Water Pipe, while Shisha, which means Glass in Persian, is the commonly used phrase in the Arabic world. Use it interchangeably. We won't tell!
Preparing Whole Leaf Tobacco as Shisha for Hookah or Hookah for your Shisha
 1. Remove the mid-rib from your tobacco and shred it.
 2. Wash your tobacco to remove some of the harsh tobacco flavor.
 3. Mix it with honey or molasses and bake on low heat (150 degrees F) for about an hour and a half.
 4. Add glycerin, and liquid extracts to give your Shisha tobacco a nice flavor.
 5. Let sit and soak for at least 24 hours.
Your tobacco is then ready for use in the glass vessel, tube and pipehowever you want to label it!

of the port release
Click on "Add rule" to start the port sharing process, which may take a few minutes.
Step 6: Start Terraria server
As soon as the ports are enabled you can start your Terraria server (In the firewall policies in the Cloud Panel you can see whether the release process is still in progress or already completed under "Status"). The simplest solution for this is to use the batch file named start-server.bat mentioned earlier. So navigate to the Terraria directory and start the batch file and thus also the server by double-clicking on it.
If you have not yet entered important information, such as the difficulty level or the name of the game world, in the configuration file, the command line will now ask you for this information. Then the creation of the server starts, which can take a few minutes depending on the size and seed. If the process was successful, the command prompt will display a success message.
Step 7: Connect to the server
If you or your friends want to connect to the new Terraria server, the following steps are required:
- Start Terraria.
- Click on "Multiplayer".
- Select the option "Join via IP" and an avatar.
- Type the IP address of your server (with :7777 appended for the port).
- Press "Accept".
- Enter the server password, if you have one assigned.
Once the connection to the server is established, your custom Terraria adventure can finally begin!
