Kenyans Odi Dancing in Covid-19 Quarantine Inspire Hope [VIDEO]
Kenyans quarantined at Kenyatta University protest against the government on Wednesday, April 15, 2020
A break from the doom and gloom occasioned by the Covid-19 pandemic came in the form of a viral video of Kenyans dancing at a quarantine facility that surfaced on Monday, June 1.
In a hospital gown, one of those in the ward excitedly got up as he started dancing to Phone Stress by Busy Signal, a popular Dancehall tune and a favorite among odi dancers.
As he continued with the groove, other patients in the ward joined in, each showing off their moves as they beckoned a health worker in full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to join in.
The nurse stole the show and had the ward watching as she happily odi danced to the tune, with other dancing patients urging her on in the background.
Odi dancing was made popular by young Kenyans inventing moves to Dancehall songs, and moved into the mainstream thanks to a hit of the same name by Timeless Noel. It became entrenched in the Gengetone music genre that subsequently emerged in 2018 and took over the charts.
The video of the dancers in quarantine inspired a large section of Kenyans who took to social media to express the joy and hope it brought them.
Particularly, the video was credited with helping combat stigma brought about by the pandemic even as the government reiterates messaging against stigmatization of those infected with Covid-19 or in quarantine.
Those in quarantine have faced stigma even after leaving the facilities Covid-19 free, with many friends, relatives and neighbors afraid of associating with them in fear of contracting the disease.
Some of those who arrived in the country from foreign nations and were subjected to mandatory quarantine for 14 days have recounted their struggles in re-integrating with their family, friends and communities.
Common complaints include the fact that in places such as home, no one wants to touch what they have touched and they are often confined to separate spaces.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), social stigma is the negative association between a person or group of people who share certain characteristics.
In the Covid-19 scenario, patients may be labelled, stereotyped, discriminated against, treated separately, and experience loss of status.
This stigma, WHO explains, is predicated on the fact that it is a new disease, the fear of the unknown and the ability to associate it with 'others'.

If the sqlite3_vtab_nochange(X) routine is called within the xColumn method of a virtual table, then it might return true if the column is being fetched as part of an UPDATE operation during which the column value will not change. The virtual table implementation can use this hint as permission to substitute a return value that is less expensive to compute and that the corresponding xUpdate method understands as a "no-change" value.
If the xColumn method calls sqlite3_vtab_nochange() and finds that the column is not changed by the UPDATE statement, then the xColumn method can optionally return without setting a result, without calling any of the sqlite3_result_xxxxx() interfaces. In that case, sqlite3_value_nochange(X) will return true for the same column in the xUpdate method.
The sqlite3_vtab_nochange() routine is an optimization. Virtual table implementations should continue to give a correct answer even if the sqlite3_vtab_nochange() interface were to always return false. In the current implementation, the sqlite3_vtab_nochange() interface does always returns false for the enhanced UPDATE FROM statement.

Create a Stream Group
Once the Encoding profiles are created, the next step to controlling the quality of your video is to create Stream Groups. Since Stream groups are the grouping of different encoding profiles it may be likely to have stream groups for single video, Dual video, and Video plus slides among others.
The most difficult part of creating stream groups may be determining what stream groups need to be created. Once that has been determined, it is just a matter of adding a new group and choosing the encoding profiles to apply to each stream.
Since stream groups define the number of content streams and the type of media for each stream you might have a need for more stream groups than you would initially think. Regardless of how many stream groups you may need creating them always follow the same steps. Starting in the Management portal:
- Navigate to Recording > Stream Groups.
- Click Add New.
- Give you stream group a descriptive name that indicates each stream type. (i.e Camera (16:9 Video), Content (16:9 Video))
- Click Add Stream.
- Select the Input (Video1, 2, 3 or Slide) then click Add Stream.
- Click MP4 or Smooth Streaming then Add Media Type.
- Select the desired encoding profile for the media type.
- Click Audio and select an Audio encoding profile.
- Repeat steps 4-7 to add additional streams.
- Set Video 2, the content stream as primary by clicking and dragging it to the left-hand position.
- Once all streams have been added, click Save.

Venafi Trust Protection Platforms (TPP) has the ability to work as a SCEP server. This feature is referred to as Network Device Enrollment (NDE). This article describes the steps to setup and configure TPP and SSCEP a command line SCEP client to work together.
Configure NDE on TPP side in WebAdmin:
1. Create Password object to use for SCEP requests
2. Go to Platform Tree to configure NDE settings
3. Select Engine or root of Platform tree and go to "Network Device Enrollemnt" > Settings
4. Configure settings:
Enable "SCEP Reply Delay"
Default Challenge Password = Password for requests to use
Default Certificate Container = Where to create cert objects
Default Certificate Authority = What CA Template to use
RA Certificate = Certificate used for Registration Authority (cert that was issued by CA we are going to use)
5. Save settings and restart IIS
Use SSCEP to test NDE
1. Unzip SSCEP (found here: _URL_
2. Generate a certificate request providing a Common Name and the Challenge Password when prompted by openssl:
openssl.exe req -config scep.cnf -new -key priv.key -out test.csr
3. Retrieve the CA and RA certificates from your SECP/NDES:
sscep.exe getca -u _URL_ -c ca.crt
4. Enroll a new certificate and make sure to specify the correct RA (-c flag)
sscep.exe enroll -u _URL_ -k priv.key -r test.csr -l test.crt -c ca.crt-0
5. If things work, certficate is stored in test.crt
What to look at when things aren't working?
1. Check the Engine object logs in Platform tree for "Network Device Enrolment" errors
2. Check to see if the Certificate object got created
- Did creating and retrieving the cert take too long?
- Was there an issue during cert enrolment?
3. Check that the RA Cert is correct
4. Check that CA Template has root/intermediate certs configured
5. Check SCEP server url and that it is http
6. Double check that challenge password in CSR is correct:
openssl req -in test.csr -noout -text
7. Check that the vedscep URL (_URL_ works with a browser. It should return "Bad Request"

Olivier Garcia "Formula One"
The exhibition presents a selection of designer furniture by Olivier Garcia. The artist offers a very personal interpretation of materials and colors of the pinnacle of the automotive world: Formula 1. The "Formula One" concept originated from a simple idea: using the materials and fabrics of the automobile industry as an inspiration for interior design. Why? As the artist explains: "I've always been fascinated by the world of F1, with its state-of-the-art technology and its bright colors. So recently I decided to start incorporating these colors into my furniture".


Quick Answer: Why Does My Tummy Hurt After Eating Pineapple?
Why pineapple is bad for you?
Pineapple Risks and Warnings Because bromelain breaks down proteins, it can "eat away" at your flesh.
For this reason, it's also an ingredient in meat tenderizer.
But as soon as you swallow the fruit, your stomach acids destroy the flesh-eating enzyme.
Some people have an allergy to pineapple..
Can pineapple make you feel sick?
The juice from unripe pineapples can cause severe vomiting. Bromelain ingestion is associated with a low incidence of adverse reactions, including diarrhea, excess menstrual flow, nausea, skin rash, and vomiting. Swelling of the mouth and cheeks can result from eating large amounts of the fruit.
What foods are high in bromelain?
You can get papain and bromelain by eating raw papaya and pineapple, respectively. You can also buy these proteolytic enzymes in concentrated supplement form. Though pineapples and papayas are the most common sources of proteolytic enzymes, other dietary sources include ( 6, 7, 8 ):
Can pineapple give you tummy ache?
Can bromelain cause stomach pain?
Can you get sick from bad pineapple?
Pineapple food poisoning is possible. The skin of a pineapple can be contaminated by bacteria such as staphylococcus and then transferred to the edible parts when being cut. Staph food poisoning can occur as soon as 30 mins after eating and symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, and stomach ache.
Why do pineapples eat you back?
Should I take bromelain on an empty stomach?
Your doctor may recommend that you take bromelain with meals in order to aid digestion, or on an empty stomach to reduce inflammation.
Why does my mouth hurt after eating pineapple?

A new numerical scheme is presented for computing strict maximum likelihood (ML) of geometric fitting problems having an implicit constraint. Our approach is orthogonal projection of observations onto a parameterized surface defined by the constraint. Assuming a linearly separable nonlinear constraint, we show that a theoretically global solution can be obtained by iterative Sampson error minimization. Our approach is illustrated by ellipse fitting and fundamental matrix computation. Our method also encompasses optimal correction, computing, e.g., perpendiculars to an ellipse and triangulating stereo images. A detailed discussion is given to technical and practical issues about our approach.

What is the cardinality of the following set:
$$\mathbb{A}:=\{A \ : A\subseteq\mathbb{R} \ \ \text{dense and countable}\}$$
(Is $\mathbb{A}$ a separable space?)
Thank You!
share|cite|improve this question
The question whether something is a separable space presupposes that a topology is given on that something. Did you have a particular topology on $\mathbb A$ in mind? – Andreas Blass Dec 6 '12 at 2:09
I have to wonder where did you come up with the separability question in mind. The original question merely asks for the first part. Also, please remember to use the [homework] tag. – Asaf Karagila Dec 6 '12 at 10:59

The cardinality of $\Bbb R$ is $2^\omega$ (or if you prefer, $2^{\aleph_0}$), so $\Bbb R$ has $\left(2^\omega\right)^\omega=2^{\omega\cdot\omega}=2^\omega$ countable subsets. Thus, the cardinality of $\Bbb A$ is at most $2^\omega$, since not all countable subsets of $\Bbb R$ are dense in $\Bbb R$. However, it turns out that even though not all of these $2^\omega$ countable subsets are dense, there are $2^\omega$ of them that are dense. Here's one way to show this.
For $x,y\in\Bbb R$ write $x\sim y$ if and only if $x-y\in\Bbb Q$.
 1. Prove that $\sim$ is an equivalence relation on $\Bbb R$.
 2. Prove that for each $x\in\Bbb R$ the $\sim$-equivalence class of $x$ is $x+\Bbb Q=\{x+q:q\in\Bbb Q\}$ and is therefore countable.
 3. Conclude that $\sim$ has $2^\omega$ equivalence classes.
 4. Show that each $\sim$-equivalence class is dense in $\Bbb R$.
The set $\Bbb A$ isn't a space at all until you give it some topology: it's just a collection of subsets of $\Bbb R$.

Mr Brian M. Scott, Thank You! – 17SI.34SA Dec 6 '12 at 2:15
Here is a slightly more fun way to do this:
First note that there are at most $\mathbb R^\mathbb N$ countable sets of real numbers, calculate the cardinality and see that this means that there cannot be more than $2^{\aleph_0}$ countable sets of real numbers.
Secondly note that $P=\mathbb{Q\setminus N}$ is dense in $\mathbb R$. Now for every $A\subseteq\mathbb N$ we have that $P\cup A$ is dense and countable. It is easy to see that if $A\neq B$ then $P\cup A\neq P\cup B$. Therefore we actually found $2^{\aleph_0}$ dense sets of real numbers which are subsets of $\mathbb Q$.
This shows that there cannot be more than $2^{\aleph_0}$ countable dense sets. As remarked by others, separability is a topological property and it is unclear what topology you are giving this collection.
share|cite|improve this answer
$\mathbb{Q}$ is countable. So $\mathbb{R}\setminus \mathbb{Q}$ is uncountable. For each irrational $x$, the set $\mathbb{Q} \cup \{x\}$ is also dense in $\mathbb{R}$. Hence there are an uncountable number of dense subsets of $\mathbb{R}$.

What is the cardinality of the set in question? Just saying the set is uncountable does not suffice here. – David Mitra Dec 6 '12 at 2:26

French government renames Twitter hashtag
France's official state documents will now adopt the phrase "mot dièse" to refer to the social networking symbol
French government renames Twitter hashtag
Written By
Sacré bleu! The French government have moved to protect their nation from the sinister Anglicising effect of Twitter by replacing the word "hashtag" with their own Gallic term "mot-dièse", which translates as "sharp word".
The Commission Génerale de Terminologie et de Néologie – a government agency solely responsible for the preservation of the French language – has made it a legal requirement that the French equivalent to the English term be used in all official government legislation and correspondence. French Twitter users will also be encouraged to adopt the new word, although any decision to revert to the use of "hashtag" will not be deemed an illegal offence.
Back in 2003, the same agency attempted to replace the word "email" with the French equivalent, "courriel", with limited success. "Mot dièse" doesn't exactly trip off the tongue so it remains to be seen whether the French will adopt it into their vernacular. _TAG_


Small Static Caravan Sites | North-Wales | North Wales Caravans
Small static caravan sites in North Wales are often located in areas of outstanding natural beauty within a short distance of the coast. The Countryside Code benefits everyone using the countryside in the UK and North Wales, to enable you to get the most out of your visit. It is in place to give you helpful advice when planning your outing, to keep yourself and others safe and to ensure that the countryside remains a fabulous environment that everyone can enjoy. For example, many holiday makers who visit Sirior Bach Caravan Park near Abergele, make frequent visits out into the beautiful Welsh countryside and there are rules for ramblers, cyclists and dog walkers to follow.
Always consider other people and the local community
 - When out driving in the countryside, consider visitors and local people; don't block driveways and gateways, or pathways with your vehicle.
 - When driving a vehicle or riding a bike, slow down or stop for farm animals, walkers and horses and always ensure you give them room when passing.
 - If a farmer is moving his animals cooperate by keeping out of the way, follow any directions that the farmer gives you.
 - Busy traffic can be a hindrance on country roads to visitors, local people and wildlife so drive slowly and, if at all possible, leave your car at home; maybe cycle or take public transport.
Leave property and gates as you find them
 - If a farmer has left gates open so that his animals can reach food and water, ensure that you leave gates as you find them or look for information on any signs.
 - Always follow pathways unless there is a wider access such as on common ground. Never climb over fences, hedges and walls potentially causing damage; use gaps in boundaries, stiles or gates for access.
 - Never interfere with animals or machinery.
 Protect the natural environment around you
 - Take special care not to remove, destroy or damage any natural features such as trees, plants or rocks, which may be habitat for wildlife.
 - Left-over food and litter can be detrimental and dangerous to wildlife, so ensure that you always take your litter home with you to dispose of. Fires can be dangerous to habitats, wildlife and other people so take care when smoking outdoors and if using naked flames.
Always ensure that you keep your dogs under control at all times. If possible, keep on a lead or in your sight and make sure they don't stray off into an area where you have no right of access. There are certain rules that apply to dogs near to farm animals and, if near the coast, you may need to keep them on a lead so as not to disturb breeding birds. Pick up your dog's mess and dispose of it in a safe manner – in bins provided or take it home with you to dispose of correctly.
You are responsible for your own safety and of those in your care, especially children, so be prepared for any hazards – a sudden change in the weather or an unpredictable horse or farm animal.
The countryside is appealing around small static caravan sites in North Wales; wonderful places where you can get away from it all. So to ensure that everyone has an enjoyable, safe visit make sure you stick to the rules of the countryside code.
If you need any further information about staying safe during your time at such holiday parks as Whitehouse Leisure Park, Sirior Bach Caravan Park, Golden Gate Holiday Centre or any of the small caravan sites in North Wales, please feel free to contact us at North Wales Caravans.

Solvent viscosity effects on the fluoresence lifetimes of 9-phenylanthracene
MetadataShow full item record
This study is concerned with a microscopic look at viscosity, generally considered a macroscopic quantity. Viscosity effects on a molecular scale were probed by studying the fluorescence decay times of a nonpolar dye (9-phenylanthiacene) as a function of viscosity in 10 nonpolar linear alkanes. These times increased from 3.45 to 5.75 ns for viscosities from 0.300 to 2.57 cp. This is attributed to "frictional" forces between fluorescing and solvent molecules during isomerization of the fluorescers. Excitation and deexcitation require the rotation of the phenyl ring from a direction perpendicular to the anthracene moiety in the ground state. Solvent viscosity tends to hinder this rotation. Hence the fluorescence decay rates are influenced by viscosity on a molecular scale. An empirical model that relates the decay rates to a reciprocal function of viscosity is discussed. The fluorescence was excited at 362 nm by a pulsed N2-pumped dye laser, and emission was monitored at 420 nm. Our fast analog technique was used in the acquisition and analysis of the time-resolved data.

Definition of vigil in English:
- A mourner, fallen asleep in a late-night vigil, awakes the next morning to find that not only are his trousers missing, but the corpse has been stolen as well.
- But when I came and kept vigil in his armchair while he lay on his left ribs, his back rolled around him like an exoskeleton, all night I stared at his books neat in their shelves.
- In the old days families kept vigil and ate little 'Soul' cakes.
- N.O.W. was planning to hold a candlelight vigil outside the jail where Yates is being held.
- The local authorities' campaign headquarters plans to hold protest vigils outside the treasury every few days, each time representing two different municipalities.
- On March 27, about 200 teachers and students from the Wellington and Hutt Valley regions staged a protest vigil outside parliament.
- The Christmas pageant involving the children from Culleens and Kilglass N.S. will take place during the Gospel at the Christmas night vigil Mass in Kilglass Church.
- It is at pains to point out that much of the ceremony took place during the Christmas vigil and on the feast of the Nativity.
- The vigil Mass for Christmas will take place in Rathdowney Church on Christmas Eve at 9pm.
Vigil comes from Latin vigilia 'wakefulness', from vigil 'awake'. It was first used for the night before a religious festival, when people might stay wakeful all night in prayer. Related words include vigilant (Late Middle English); vigilance (late 16th century); and vigilante (mid 19th century) adopted from a Spanish word with the literal meaning 'vigilant'. Surveillance (early 19th century) is from the same root and is literally watching over something, also found when someone invigilates (mid 16th century) an exam.

But the problem is kids aren't really supposed to play them in the first place, most fps games are rated mature and there's a reason for that so if you don't want your child exposed to violence then don't give them access to the game.
 - Yes, if Done Well
 While it is true that many major titles like Call of Duty or Battlefield are arcade-like and not representative of reality, other games like Arma or Red Orchestra 2 are more accurate. It's not like the glorification of war is exclusive to video games; it has been in every form of entertainment media to date. I can't even begin to count the number of movies that fit the bill. Some games like Spec Ops: The Line actually provide really insightful commentary on war. Others are outright shy down by critics from the community for being too accurate.
 - Not healthy for kids
 It makes the kids want to be like the people in the game. Have you ever heard the stories about those kids shooting people? The rate of kids killing people are rising and i think it is because of games like these. I would let my kid play these games until he was probably 15
 - No, they are not
 No they are not healthy to kids for a number of reasons (not to say that there are no positive aspects to these games), firstly they give kids a false sense of what real war is like and therefore desensitize them to that kind of thing, secondly its gives them false ideas about the physical limits of the human body (in no way am i saying this applies to all kids, but mostly younger ones), for example healing quickly after being shot, being able to be shot with multiple bullets and still survive and lastly i must say that this definitely does not apply to all kids, but it does to the majority of them, so no, i do not think that they are exactly healthy for kids.
 - No, not healthy.
 First person shooters aren't exactly "bad" for kids, they provide entertainment and there's no evidence to support that they negatively affect mentally stable children. However, they're not "healthy". A child who plays fps's isn't going to be any healthier, mentally, emotionally, or physically, than a child who doesn't. Playing shooters isn't hurting children, but it's not improving their health.

Halfway Home – The Rehabilitation of New Zealand Second World War POWs in Britain
While suffering through monotony and deprivations, New Zealand Second World War POWs mentally escaped their confines by imagining their eventual return home. They envisaged returning to a world free from the woes of captivity and war. This paper examines their rehabilitation in Britain. While Britain was not New Zealand, the prisoners expected it to conform to their idealised version of home. However, this paper argues prisoners experienced difficulties during their rehabilitation, and they were destabilised when confronted with the continued presence of the war and captivity.

This is a theoretical comparison between the costs involved in operating a diesel, electric or gas/petrol counter balanced forklift truck over a period of say 5 years. The comparison gives the cost for an activity cycle per forklift truck.
What is meant with activity cycle is a task for instance to pick up a load and transport it say 25 meters, place the load in a rack (2.5 meters high) and travel back to fetch another load. The cost comparison model has been so designed to calculate the cost involved in the performance of any combinations of activities to form an activity cycle.
This is a theoretical cost model and no environmental aspects are taken into account.
|THE COST COMPARISON MODEL|
The model is divided into the following sub sections.
These are the performance of the particular make and type of forklift trucks in use e.g. max travel speed, lifting speed, etc.
No detail is given here of the further stages of the model - it covers inter-alia the following:
This is the work cycle the forklift is doing. As mentioned in the introduction, each activity cycle is a combination of individual activities. For each activity you must give information such as distance to be travelled, percentage of max speed, etc.
These are the items such as the motor sizes driving the battery operated truck, fuel consumption and tank sizes. These variables are used to determine the power needed to perform each activity cycle.
This is where the fixed cost for the equipment is calculated. The model assumes the equipment would be financed by a 5 year period loan and that the equipment has a residual value at the end of the 5 years. The loan period can be adapted. Tax aspects are ignored but can be added to the model if required.
This is all the operating costs such as: fuel, tyres, maintenance and labour.
All costs are added to obtain a cost per activity cycle as performed in a 5 year period, with other words what that particular activity costs the user during the "life" of the forklift truck in present value rand terms per forklift truck and for the required fleet size.
|SOME COMPARISON RESULTS|
The model has been used for the three different activity cycles. For all three activity cycles the same performance and cost variables have been used, only the activities have been changed.
Activity cycle one: Is for small movements and lifting. Like order picking and truck loading type of activities where the forklift truck does not need to travel over long distances, but is doing a lot of load handling.
Activity cycle two: Is more medium travelling distances and moving. The type of activity were a pallet is moved from the palletisation area to for instance a cold store and placed in a rack.
Activity cycle three: Is for moving of loads over longer distances. Typical operations would be moving loads between warehouses or cold stores where trailer transfer is possibly called for.
It should be noted that this is just an example of what the model can do. End results are very much dependent on the variables entered into the model.
The time taken to complete an activity cycle therefore is very much dependent on the performance parameters of each forklift.
|Interesting to note that the running cost for activity cycle one does not differ very much between the forklifts.|
|Both the LP Gas and Electric forklift trucks do much better in smaller activities such as in activity cycle 1.|
Because the model can accept virtually any forklift task and operation cycle, it is an ideal program to use in order to determine the relative cost of the activity cycle when using each forklift propulsion type - even, within limits, different forklift makes, or more importantly when using larger or smaller capacity forklift trucks to do the same task.

Native Americans used turtle shells as musical instruments
Many indigenous groups believe that the world was formed upon a turtle's back. This symbology and belief is imbued into the turtle shell rattles, which are meant to keep rhythm and thereby interjects powerful symbology and spiritual energy into dances and ceremonies.
Musical instruments have a deep ancient history in human society and are encoded with meanings beyond their sound making capabilities. Researchers from the Florida State University examined the use of turtle shells as percussion instruments in the southeastern United States. They identified and analyzed several partial Eastern box turtle shells from middle Tennessee archaeological sites that they believe were used as rattles.
The researchers noted that turtle shell rattles have been found throughout North America, ranging from Florida to the Northeast and into Canada.

Hydraulics e.g. extruders
Hydraulics E.G. Extruders
Many industrial fires are caused by oil spray from a high pressure hydraulic fluid leak. The leak can create an atomized spray that may project up to 40 ft (12 m) from the release point. Pressurized sprays produce small droplets that are ignited at temperatures below the normal flash point.
Typical features for hydraulics are:
- A variety of false alarm sources may occur.
- High ventilation rates may be present.
- Be sure to monitor the drainage areas.
- Sprinklers will have little effect on an oil spray fire but will at least cool the adjacent materials.
- Use the alarm signal of the flame detector for a shut-down of the high pressure pump.
Detector choice: recommended IR3 Flame Detectors.

Evaluation of experimental bridge [electronic resource] : Massman Drive bridge over Interstate 40 in Davidson County /
Abstract (Summary)The Massman Drive Bridge is a 284ft. two-span continuous steel bridge over Interstate 40 in Nashville, TN. The bridge is an experimental design that unifies the construction economy of simple span bridges and the structural economy of continuous span bridges. The structural system involves bridge girders initially erected with simple supports at the center bent and abutments. Before the deck is placed, an experimental connection is used to rigidly connect the two adjacent girders over the center bent. The experimental connection couples a cover plate in tension and two kicker wedge plates in compression. The kicker wedge plates supply resistance with direct bearing between each other and the compression flanges of the adjacent girders. A total of 84 weldable strain gages were applied to three of the five bridge girders. The majority of the strain gages were placed at the connection on the plates and girder. Data collected during placement of the bridge deck concrete was used to evaluate the bridge performance under dead load. Several live load tests were later performed and will be reported by others. The data indicate that the three girders instrumented were continuous across the experimental connection. The two interior girders were found to exhibit similar behavior. However, the one instrumented exterior girder was found to have a reduced stiffness at the connection, as compared to the two interior girders. The effectiveness of the connection appears to be dependent on the erection of the wedge plates. A rationale for this behavior is presented but is not conclusive. Overall, the conclusion is drawn that the method works, in the sense that continuity over the center bent was achieved under the weight of the freshly cast deck.

Handbag technology and method
Handbag technology and method
Section 1: Analysis of the overall structure of handbags
In terms of market conditions, the handbags we see are complex and varied, and formally. If you analyze them comprehensively, it is not difficult to find that most handbags have such a structural commonality: there are front, back, and Tai Wai; left, right, and Tai Wai; front, back, and bottom materials. It consists of three basic components. For some handbags, the front panel is composed of a few pieces of different poses and flowery materials. The front panel is also equipped with a flat or three-dimensional front outer bag; the rear panel is also installed; the big Wai is divided into a bottom and a zipper. Two symmetrical side bags are installed on both sides of Da Wai. According to the consumer's use, the top three basic components are increased or decreased, so that the overall shape of the handbag changes and is complicated.
However, no matter how complicated the handbags we encounter, it is hard to stop us out of the ordinary. Complex handbags only increase our exceptional workload, but not the technical difficulty of our exceptional. Changes in the shape of handbags, it is difficult to overcome the commonality in the structure of handbags, as long as we can clearly see the structure of handbags, it provides us with the conditions for exceptional.
The structural commonality of handbags is abstracted by inductive summarization after viewing many handbags with naked eyes. If you are a wise man, you will also find that the structure of the handbag also has rules that are invisible to the naked eye. The perimeter of the width is equal to the total length of the corresponding circumference; the perimeter of the bottom material is the same as the connecting element. Are equal in length.
If any set of paper grids violates the above rules, it cannot be used as a bag. As for the structure of the handbags, we will choose a large number of handbags according to the type of handbags, which will be discussed in the internship class.
Section II. Shape analysis of handbag components
The shape of the handbag component (hereinafter referred to as the component of the handle component) is rectangular, square, triangular, trapezoidal, prismatic, circular, elliptic, or regular polygonal. These are what we call regular shapes; there are also convex and concave shapes. A mixture of several shapes, and other shapes that are difficult to name, are called irregular shapes. In order to determine the shape of regular components, or to connect with mathematical knowledge. Rectangular, you only need to measure the length and width to get its shape; the square is shaped by the length of the side; the trapezoid is shaped by the upper, lower bottom and height; the prism is shaped by two diagonal lines; the perfect circle is shaped by diameter or radius; the ellipse is Large and small diameter setting. For those irregular figures, the fourth section of Chapter 4 has already been described. The coordinates can be legally shaped. Although the shape of the handbag component is diverse, it has the following characteristics:
1. All are flat graphics.
2. Mostly axisymmetric figures.
What is an axisymmetric figure?
Fold a figure along a straight line, if it can coincide with the other half of the figure, then this figure is called an axisymmetric figure, and this line is called the axis of symmetry. Because the shapes of handbag components are mostly axisymmetric figures, when we draw out the paper grid, we only need to half out the shape of the component, and the other half can be drawn out by folding in half along the axis of symmetry. This saves us a lot of work and time for the paper grid.
Section three, out of order
The order of the handbags is: first out of the main case (also called the positive case), then out of the second case (out of the secondary case). What is a nobility? The paper grid that can determine the shape or size of other paper grids is called the main grid. What is sub-frame? The paper shape whose size or shape depends on other paper shapes.
The combination of several sub-cells, either shape or length, has a certain relationship with the shape or size of the main cell. In general handbags, the width is the main grid and the circumference is the secondary grid; the back width is the main grid of the front pocket; the front pocket is the main grid of the front pocket; the side pocket is the main grid of the side pocket. Therefore, the general order of handbags is arranged as follows: back width, front width, large bottom zipper circumference, front pocket width, front pocket circumference, side pocket width and side pocket circumference. The order in which handbags are out of order is precisely determined by the rules of the handbag structure mentioned in the first section of this chapter.
Section 4: Outliers
The outsourcing method is the comprehensive use of all the above knowledge (in this example, first out of the main case and then the width).
1. The first piece of paper (the piece of paper is marked with a knife) and the next piece of paper that is larger than the length and width of the latter.
2. In the center of the paper, a straight line is used as a number axis (can not be interrupted, you can fold it in half), fold it in half, and then just above the number axis, make a roar with an iron foot of the garden gauge, and then introduce a straight line (not possible (Interruption) as the second number axis, so that two number axes perpendicular to each other appear on the paper.
3. Fold in half along the second number axis and roar on the first axis. If the roar position is also on the axis of the other half of the folding surface, the coordinate system is qualified. This piece of paper can be used to inherit the grid, such as the divergence of the coordinate system., This piece of paper can be removed (vertical inspection of coordinate system).
4. Measure the surface length and width of the back panel of the handbag, and take half of it and add the length of the paper mouth as coordinates. The surface of the web is long as measured.
5. In the coordinate system, find the point with (129/16, 107/16) as the coordinate, and roar through the half-coordinate axis to find the point (-129/16, 107/16) (-129/16, -107/16) (129/16, -107/16) There are three points. After removing the excess paper along these points, a rectangular shape with a back width of (129/16)× (107/16×2) or 251/8×211/8 is obtained. This specification of SG is compared with its surface specification of 24T/2×201/4, and the length and width are each 5/8 more, that is, the length of the two paper ports. If the four corners of the back panel are curved, you can use a compass to find out its arc. Any other shape can be solved by the coordinate method.
Sixth, according to the shape of the back panel, according to the triangle gap and roaring position of the handbag, write all the text marks on the back panel, and the end of the back panel will be announced.
Seven, use the main form and then come out of the front of the second form and Tai Wai.
Many front panels are a combination of several pieces of material, and the shape and size of the rear panel are the same. Therefore, the rear width can be used to mold the shape of the front width combined material, but its structural law is: the rear width perimeter = the total circumference of the large circle. Once the rear width is determined, the total width of the large circle should be measured using the rear width. The width of the Dawei can only be determined by measuring the handbag. The total length of the Dawei = bottom circumference + zipper circumference; bottom width = zipper circumference × 2. In this way, the paper grid is measured with the paper grid according to the order of the grids, and the shape of each paper grid is drawn out, and the various marks of the paper grid are marked until the paper grid is finished.
The handbag is three-dimensional, and the components can't be taken down to touch the paper grid. The good paper grid can be picked up and compared with the original one, but it is in the paper outlet than the surface of the corresponding handbag component. In order to compare the two with each other, we can first compare the size of the surface component of the handbag, and compare the edge with the surface component of the handbag, until the shape and size are the same as the surface shape of the component, then use a paper mouth length as the unit. The compass to enlarge the paper grid, this method of making the grid, is more practical and easily accepted.

Low Stress Training or LST for short involves bending a cannabis plant to grow in a way that will improve yields. You perform LST by gently bending plants, using low levels of stress to encourage the plant to grow laterally and form a bushy canopy. This improves canopy control and promotes the development of large, thick independant shoots with uniform buds. LST can increase harvests by up to 200%, and who doesn't like free cannabis?
LST works by redistributing auxin, the hormone that is responsible for so called "apical dominance", which is a scientific term to describe the "dominant" or "main" cola. By taking away the dominance of the main cola, a cannabis plant will develop side branches more rapidly. In practical terms this means the plant will focus its energy on growing a wide, bushy plant. Once the tied down primary branch becomes the highest point of the plant again, this hormone will start accumulating in the top and restart vertical growth.
This might sound complicated, but in reality LST is one of the easiest techniques you can use to massively increase your yield! In the following infographic we explain how to LST in 6 easy steps.
step 1 low stress training
STEP 1 – Practice bending the part you will tie down with your hands to test how flexible the stem is and how safely you can work with it.
step 2 low stress training
STEP 2 – Tie or pin down the tallest shoot so it is lower in height than the lower branches. Check if the stem is comfortably bending and is flexible to touch.
step 3 low stress training
STEP 3 – Hand train the canopy and allow the smaller new shoots to grow upwards as small independent branches.
step 4 low stress training
STEP 4 – The tied down shoot will start growing upwards as normal, but remains below the other branches.
step 5 low stress training
STEP 5 – Wait for the canopy to grow back as a uniform bush structure and continue to grow.
step 6 low stress training
STEP 6 – As the plant flowers, there will be many equally large bud sites.
The well trained cannabis plant in this overview has 10+ good tops, rather than the 1-4 good tops an untrained plant would have. LST is profitable, easy, cheap and fun to do, give it a shot yourself!
F.A.Q.'s Regarding LST
Because every LST grow is different we get a wide range of questions on this subject. The questions below are by far the most common ones to ask, so we took the liberty of answering them in advance!
Q: What Material Do I Use?
A: The goal of LST is to maximally manipulate a cannabis plant without stressing it. This usually means you'll end up using some kind of rubber-coated metal wire that is specifically made for tying down plants without damaging them. You can use anything that's not too sharp, things like clothing hangers and pipe cleaners are very popular alternatives for example. Thinner materials like string and chicken wire are usually too sharp and can cut right through your cannabis plant.
Scrog netten
Trellis nets also work wonders for LST, but are not your best option if you want to start training straight away.
Q: What Do I Attach My LST Strings/Wires To?
A: Whatever you use to perform LST, you need to attach these materials to the pot as well. Many bendable metal wires will do their job if they are simply stuck in the soil, but you can also drill holes in the side of your pot or tie a band around it.
2 Plants in scrogger
Or you can buy specialized products like this patented "SCROGGER" if you don't feel like getting creative.
Q: When Can I LST?
A: LST is so low stress that it can essentially be performed throughout the lifecycle of a cannabis plant. By starting in the seedling stage, you have maximum control over your plant from the get go. LST is "done" when a cannabis plant starts stretching, about half way through flowering. While you can still bend and manipulate the plant all you want for light penetration, LST during flowering will not cause any other growth.
lst during flowering
LST works throughout the grow, but once you're this far into flowering it won't do nearly as much as during vegetative growth.le time.
Q: Can I Combine LST With Other Techniques?
A: Yes! LST works very well with practically other technique you can use to bush out a cannabis plant. Topping early will give you two branches to work with instead of one, you can repeat this multiple times. The use of screens or nets is also very practical as LST'd cannabis plants will often require support towards the end of flowering.
topped and lst cannabis plants
Topping and LST are a great combination. This cannabis plant was topped 4 times before flowering and one time at the beginning of flowering, LST was performed the whole time.
Q: Which Strains Are Best For LST?
A: LST works for every strain, there are only very minor differences. You might use LST for different reasons with different strains, but the workflow remains the same. LST helps to greatly improve the quality of the side buds in indica strains, whereas sativa strains mostly benefit from the reduced height and much more even canopy. LST does tend to work best with naturally bushy strains, as a shorter internode space will keep new colas closer together.
Lst With Tomatoes
LST works for most plants, let alone strains. Tomatoes, beans and grapes are usually grown using some form of LST to boost yields.
Q: Does LST work on autoflowering strains?
A: Yes. Autoflowering strains are generally bred to produce one main cola and a few small, nearly negligible side buds, but this is not necessarily the most optimal way to grow. LST can be used to give these side buds more light and really beef them up. Autoflowering strains still have a short vegetative period during which training will not bother them at all, so LST is fine as long as you start really early.
LST on Autoflowering
Even with autoflowering and fast-flowering strains like this Sweet 'N Sour Outdoor, you will have at least a few weeks to perform LST.
In this article you have seen many different styles of LST used in cannabis cultivation, which we hope has made it clear that no two grows are the same when it comes to this technique. Because of the "low stress" this technique lends itself perfectly to experimentation without risking a whole crop. Give it a shot, we wish you and your cannabis plant all the best!

An institutional investor is an entity that trades securities in such large volumes that it qualifies for transactional discounts. This entity typically trades on behalf of its members. An institutional investor may have an in-house research staff, and may also rely on the advice of outside specialists in making investment decisions. It is more likely to engage in sophisticated trading strategies than retail investors. Examples of institutional investors are:
Labor union funds
Life insurance companies
Because of the high trading volumes initiated by these entities, their transactions comprise a large part of the total traffic flowing through the various stock exchanges. Given their high trading volumes, institutional investors typically avoid purchasing the securities of smaller companies, in order to avoid significant ownership percentages.

Solving Connection timed out Error The Isle Evrima Dedicated Server
This post is going to be in a collection of posts dedicated in resolving common issues with setting up a dedicated server for the Isle Evrima. This one is the most common I see, so lets talk about what it is, and why it's showing up. IF you are unable to connect, but others are see "Your router doesn't have Hairpinning enabled." Below. This is the most common issue.
The biggest reason for this error comes from users attempting to connect to a server running on the same computer or the same local network. Lets explain why. If you are running your own server, you need to know the details of what is happening in your own network.
The client server architecture
For a server/client connection to work(the client being the game itself), a server has to bind a an ip address. The isle server binds to the local network address, for example "192.168.1.100". This local address is tied to a computer/server. Everyone with an internet connection has this "LAN" with a collection of IP addresses that are typically in the same format, but can be different. In a Local network we can easily connect between devices because everyone has a unique IP and there is no firewall. BUT, the Isle dedicated server is meant to be ran publicly with outside access. Others can't use our LAN ip address, so our server advertises its "public" ip address to the server list.
- When someone sees your server, They attempt to connect to the public ip address advertised by your server, which is sent out over yourservers Query port(typically 7778)
- The client attempts to connect via your Game Server Port(typically 7777), which has the public IP address, and manages what goes "inside" to the local area network, and where it goes.
- The router checks the incoming connections port to see if it has any forwarding rules, and if it does, it sends the connection to the ip address you have forwarded (your isle server)
Back to the problem
As you can see in the error message, the users client failed to connect. We see the IP address and the port. What could this mean? Well our game client could not connect. But notice this is your networks public ip address that is being advertised by your server, not the private address that you need to use within your local network. So that leads us to 3 possible issues you are having.
Your router doesn't have Hairpinning enabled.
You're game client is grabbing the public IP address, but you need to connect to a device in the local are network (your own computer or another inside your home). In this case, most modern routers have something called "Hairpinning" enabled, but some don't, and in that case, you won't be able to do this. The resolution here is to run the server in a place other than your local network, enable hairpinning on your router, or buy a router that supports it. You can also try to use a VPN on your game computer, and then try to connect, so that you go out, and then back inside your network, using your public IP. Other than that, there is no way to direct 1 IP to another on windows.
"NAT hairpinning, also known as NAT loopback or NAT reflection, is a feature in many consumer routers where a machine on the LAN is able to access another machine on the LAN via the external IP address of the LAN/router".
You are forwarding your Query port, but not the game port.
In this case, your server is being listed, but the client can't connect because the actual game server port is blocked. Your resolution here is checking _URL_ with port "7777" If it failed, the port is blocked at either your router, or computer/server firewall. If this fails, please don't spam dedicated server hosting communities with issues involving port forwarding. It over shadows people with real issues, and can usually be resolved with a few google searches.
The Server has an internal issue that caused the game thread to fail.
This can be identified by red text within the console. This is the least likely issue, but looks for an error indicating that the game server listen port (usually 7777) failed to find to an interface. In this case, something on the computer your server is running on is currently using that port. This can be identified by viewing the "resource monitor" in windows, and checking the tcp bind section to see if a program is using port 7777/7778. If it is, stop it and try again.
Anyways, I'll be linking this back to those that have issues.

- For example -:
Ensure you adhere strictly to the format above. There should be no space in the message.
- Wait for your result to be delivered to your phone via SMS. (SMS Cost N30 Only)
But Checking WAEC Results Online – You use this method
You can either use mobile phone or PC to do this, as long as its connected to the internet.
- Logon to _URL_

(This is your 7-Digit centre number followed by your 3-digit candidate number eg. _PHONE_)
- Enter the 4 digits of your Examination Year eg. 2002
- Select the Type of Examination
- Enter the Card Serial Number found on the reverse side of your Scratch card.

However, there are things you should know about which never exist, that is;
- to check waec result without examination number
- to check waec result without scratch card pin or serial number
- to check results without spending money or credit
This is because you MOST need the follow to successfully check your waec result online or SMS;
- Examination Number – Your Exam number make you look unique from others, that is why no one can have same exam number (only by error).

What is the average cost of landscaping?
Quick Answer
As of 2015, the average cost of landscaping is roughly $2,900. The lowest amount is $1,100 and the highest amount is $9,000. Overall costs are often influenced by geographic location and the scope of the landscaping project. Costs are also influenced by whether the homeowner wants to include extra ornamentation.
Continue Reading
Full Answer
The average cost of landscaping is also influenced by whether the homeowner decides to handle a majority of the project on his own or instead consult with a landscape architect, designer or another landscape professional. The homeowner might also decide to hire a landscape surveyor to determine where his property ends and where his neighbor's begins.
Homeowners should also consider the long-term effects of their landscaping plans. For example, homeowners should think about whether the new landscaping features allow for proper draining, otherwise they may experience mold, mildew and water damage. Homeowners can also decide between synthetic grass and xeriscaping. Either option is a good way to save money in the future on labor and water usage.
Homeowners who include extra landscaping features such as ponds, misting systems and gazebos should include the cost of supplies and ongoing care with such additions. Extra costs can stem from continuing maintenance, de-icing in the winter and the initial cost of installation.

Princeton's WordNet
 1. Brown, John Brown(noun)
 1. John Brown
 John Brown was an American abolitionist who believed armed insurrection was the only way to overthrow the institution of slavery in the United States. During 1856 in Kansas, Brown commanded forces at the Battle of Black Jack and the Battle of Osawatomie. Brown's followers also killed five pro-slavery supporters at Pottawatomie. In 1859, Brown led an unsuccessful raid on the federal armory at Harpers Ferry that ended with his capture. Brown's trial resulted in his conviction and a sentence of death by hanging. Brown's attempt in 1859 to start a liberation movement among enslaved African Americans in Harpers Ferry, Virginia electrified the nation. He was tried for treason against the Commonwealth of Virginia, the murder of five men and inciting a slave insurrection. He was found guilty on all counts and was hanged. Southerners alleged that his rebellion was the tip of the abolitionist iceberg and represented the wishes of the Republican Party to end slavery. Historians agree that the Harpers Ferry raid in 1859 escalated tensions that, a year later, led to secession and the American Civil War. Brown first gained attention when he led small groups of volunteers during the Bleeding Kansas crisis. Unlike most other Northerners, who advocated peaceful resistance to the pro-slavery faction, Brown believed that peaceful resistance was shown to be ineffective and that the only way to defeat the oppressive system of slavery was through violent insurrection. He believed he was the instrument of God's wrath in punishing men for the sin of owning slaves.

Peruvian president apologizes for wartime persecution of Japanese
Peru President Alan Garcia. Kyodo file photo
LIMA, Peru (Kyodo) — Peruvian President Alan Garcia apologized June 14 for his government's persecution and forced emigration of Japanese and Japanese Peruvians to the United States during World War II, marking the first such gesture by the Andean country, according a diplomatic source.
The apology came during his speech delivered at a Japanese Peruvian hospital facility in the capital.
Mass immigration from Japan began in 1899, with many immigrants having achieved success in the following years prior to the war. But once Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, the Peruvian government banned assemblies by Japanese and Japanese Peruvians, froze their assets and sent about 1,800 of them to internment camps in the United States.
Garcia is known for his friendliness to Japan, one example of which is his decision to stipulate a day of mourning after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami that hit Northeastern Japan.
Although he is completing his term of office in July, Garcia is widely expected to seek re-election in the next presidential race in 2016, prompting speculation that his latest remark was aimed at currying favor with Japanese Peruvians, who have a measure of influence in Peruvian society.
Leftist Ollanta Humala, who won the presidential runoff earlier this month by defeating the eldest daughter of disgraced former President Alberto Fujimori, is set to succeed Garcia as president.

Create a Delphi Form From a String
Elevated view of programmers working on laptops
Maskot / Getty Images
There may be instances when you do not know the exact class type of a form object. You may only have the string variable carrying the name of the form's class, such as "TMyForm".
Note that the Application.CreateForm() procedure expects a variable of type TFormClass for its first parameter. If you can provide a TFormClass type variable (from a string), you will be able to create a form from its name.
Sample Exercise
 1. Create a new Delphi project and name the main form: MainForm (TMainForm).
 2. Add three new forms to the project, name them:
 3. FirstForm (TFirstForm)
 4. SecondForm (TSecondForm)
 5. ThirdForm (TThirdForm)
 6. Remove the three new forms from the "Auto-create Forms" list in the Project-Options dialog.
 7. Drop a ListBox on the MainForm and add three strings: 'TFirstForm', 'TSecondForm', and 'TThirdForm'.
procedure TMainForm.FormCreate( Sender: TObject);
RegisterClass(TFirstForm); RegisterClass(TSecondForm); RegisterClass(TThirdForm);
In the MainForm's OnCreate event register the classes:
procedure TMainForm.CreateFormButtonClick( Sender: TObject);
s : string;
s := ListBox1.Items[ListBox1.ItemIndex]; CreateFormFromName(s);
Once the button is clicked, find the selected form's type name, and call a custom CreateFormFromName procedure:
procedure CreateFormFromName(
const FormName : string);
fc : TFormClass; f : TForm;
fc := TFormClass(FindClass(FormName)); f := fc.Create(Application); f.Show;
; (* CreateFormFromName *)
If the first item is selected in the list box, the "s" variable will hold the "TFirstForm" string value. The CreateFormFromName will create an instance of the TFirstForm form.

Presence of the Gift
Philosophers, social theorists and cultural theorists have generally followed Mauss in assuming that gifts entail obligatory exchanges between distinct parties who give, receive and reciprocate, and, that the social emerges through this sequence of obligations. It is the obligation to reciprocate, for example, that led Derrida to claim that the gift is impossible. We consider the alternative ideas that non-exchange gifts are not only possible but the basis of social life: that the social arises from the nonsequential giving-and-receiving of a gift relation. To develop this claim, we draw on a research project on the phenomenology of teaching. While many interviewees, teachers and students, spoke of the gift in exchange terms, many also spoke of classroom experiences in which there is a giving and receiving that is neither sequential nor locatable. Through the resonances of the concept of presence, we draw out the time, space and ontology of the gift.

From GIS File Management to DataBase Management with PostgreSQL/PostGIS
PostGIS/PostgreSQL is a very interesting and convenient datawarehouse for hosting an organization's pool of geographic Data:
-Automatic Processes can be performed on the server-side thanks to triggers. It's useful for historization : imagine automatically adding the current date, the user name when inserting / updating data.
-Roles and permissions are easily manageable and more fine-grained and versatile than ACL rights on a server. Whereas server's ACLs only allow you to give or revoke permissions on accessing/reading/writing a file, with PostgreSQL, you can grant privileges on reading (viewing), inserting, updating and deleting values.
Assuming a database is equivalent to a folder and a database table to a GIS File, I'd like to get a database structure which would be as compliant as possible with the initial folder tree structure.
In the next posts, I'll detail two ways to get our database « skeleton », each one leaning on a delimited file with the databases' names. The first way uses a DOS Batch File, the second the ETL (Extract, Transform and Load) software Spatial Data Integrator.
PS: you can transform GIS Files into PostGIS tables, but it's also reversible: you can convert PostGIS Tables into GIS Files.
3 réflexions sur « From GIS File Management to DataBase Management with PostgreSQL/PostGIS »
 1. Hello Venkat,
 A postgresql/postgis database doesn't contain any flat files like shapefiles, mapInfo files and so on…
 A database can be compared to a folder. It contains tables. Tables could be compared to files.
 In a standard system with no relational system: folders and files, informations are spread and not connected to each other.
 In postgreSQL/potsGIS, tables are in one place, linked together and complex queries can be executed throughout them.
 One can't speak of format with tables as they aren't files. Contrary to files, you can't take a table from a database, isolate it on your computer with a copy-paste operation, and then open it with a mapping software.
 I hope it answers your question
 2. salut mathieu
 thanks for your interesting posts so far. as a new gis-user it's really great to get some inputs from people like you. please don't stop posting;-)

text: In this paper, we analyze a game called the lowest unique bid auction (LUBA). It is known that there is no closed form solution for the symmetric mixed strategy equilibria in LUBA. We propose two alternative approaches. We use weak dominance to identify upper bounds for players' bids. Under symmetry, we provide a method to compute a mixed strategy equilibrium by utilizing the recursive structure of the winning chances of the bids under one assumption.
