Lakefront Lighting Replacement
The City of Kenosha retained Clark Dietz for the investigation of the current condition and integrity of their promenade lighting along Kenosha's lakefront in Harbor Park and to provide Electrical Lighting Design Services. Clark Dietz was tasked to identify the most economical strategy to upgrade this lighting system along the lakefront pathway. The existing lighting limits are from 50th Street and 6th Avenue to 61st Street and 3rd Avenue and consisted of 130 poles along this route. The initial objective was to reuse the existing poles, bases & wiring and to just investigate refurbishing and re-lamping of the poles using current technology.
Lighting Condition Analysis
Clark Dietz provided a visual assessment of the existing pathway lighting conditions including lighting foundations, light poles and luminaires. Additionally, we interviewed City electrical staff to determine what issues they were aware of when repairs were made. With the help of City staff, we assessed the existing wiring and grounding connections, we traced out the electrical circuitry to each pole to determine which lighting cabinet the lights belonged to, and finally measured the loads that were present on each circuit as well as the overall loads on each cabinet. Based on our investigation, we were able to determine if foundations, light poles, and existing wiring could simply be reused. If possible, existing poles in good condition could be refurbished. Clark Dietz coordinated with blast shops on costs and timeline for refinishing and painting. If any poles were in need of replacement due to condition, new poles were required to match the existing style.
After the preliminary investigations and assessments, we determined that the existing infrastructure was in poor condition. The following was concluded:
- Concrete bases severely deteriorated with corroded reinforcing bars;
- Circuit wiring was direct buried and had many splices;
- Existing steel poles were corroded at the base and luminaire arms;
- Many decorative base plates were either missing or broken, and
- Voltage drop requirements were not met using existing wiring
This assessment concluded that reusing and/or refurbishing of the existing lighting system was not economical and a new lighting system should be pursued.
After careful assessment and determining a replacement fixture, Clark Dietz provided lighting design using AGi-32 to coincide with the existing pole base locations to determine what the most optimized photometrics could be for the existing light pole spacing. We analyzed and compared the proper illumination in accordance with IES Standards for urban roadways. The lighting design included:
- Contacting Diggers Hotline for underground survey locates.
- Analyzing existing photometrics using light meters in order to provide comparisons with the new fixtures.
- Providing plan sheets using mostly Aerial photography with supplemental survey.
- We designed the proposed lighting using similar fixtures that were currently in place.
- Showing lighting items and limits.
- Showing all connections for power either to an existing cabinet or a proposed cabinet (coordination with city of Kenosha).
- Providing detail sheets
- Surveying utilities and lakefront pathway.
- Providing voltage drop calculations using existing wire for entire limits of pole replacements or for new wire.
- Providing a staging plan to keep the pathway lit during construction. We coordinated work with the City on the viable options.
- Providing specifications for Bidding
- Providing bid tab of all lighting quantities


Los Angeles Criminal Defense Firm
Chain of Custody
Chain of custody refers to the movement and location of evidence from the moment it was collected to the time it is presented at trial. A proper Chain of Custody must establish:
 - Which person / officer / investigator collected the evidence and what did that person do with it for example, did the investigator package the evidence so it prevents tampering and distinguishes it from other evidence seized at the same crime scene;
 - Date, time, and place the evidence was collected;
 - How the evidence was collected - what procedures and methods were used to collect it and what safeguards were used to protect the evidence;
 - How the evidence was tagged, labeled or marked;
 - Where the officer / investigator stored the evidence and properly logged it.
 - When and by whom the evidence is moved, transferred, or tested.
Testimony and documentation are used to authenticate evidence – to establish that the evidence is what it is claimed to be. Evidence that cannot be authenticated may not be reliable or trustworthy and will not be admitted at a criminal trial. Often, prosecutors must establish chain of custody because criminal prosecutions depend on evidence gathered by police officers at the crime scene. Criminal defense attorneys generally challenge the chain of custody presented by prosecutors. If a criminal defense attorney succeeds in showing a break in the chain of custody then the prosecutor may be precluded from presenting that evidence to the jury.

Introduction: Removable Pocket for Your Phone
this will show you how to make a small pocket to attach to your phone, wallet etc for things like loose change and credit cards. It's very useful, very easy, and only uses household items.
Step 1: Materials Needed
Step 2: Cut the Paper
Use your scissors to cut the paper twice the size of what you want your pocket to be, and fold it in half. Mine is ripped out of a small notebook.
Step 3: The Middle Stripe
Cut a long strip of duct tape and put ii down the middle of your paper. Try to get it as straight as possible.
Step 4: The Side Stripes
Cut another long piece of duct tape of the same length. Cut it down the middle. Place them on each side of the first strip.
Step 5: Folding
fold bottom tab of duct tape up so it covers about half of the paper. Then fold the paper in half. Turn the paper over, and do the same thing again. Fold in half so it resembles a small folder.
Step 6: Taping the Sides and Attaching It.
cut small strips of tape and place them on each side of one of the sides of the folder. Fold the folder and take the sides together. Then take two longer pieces and attach them to each side. These are for attaching the pocket to your wallet, phone, etc.
Step 7: ( Optional ) Tab
if you would like a lid or flap that goes over the pocket to keep things from falling out, flip your pocket over and attach a piece of duct tape to the back so half of it is on the back of the pocket, and half hangs over. Fold the tape corners so it has a pointed triangle at the end. Fasten the tab over.
Step 8: Happy Dance!!!!!! :-)
You're done! Feel free to dance, pat yourself on the back, out just brag to all your friends.
We have a be nice policy.
Please be positive and constructive.

Amazingly, yes.
See High level gene expression in mammalian cells by a nuclear T7-phage RNA polymerase. The authors recognize that the T7 RNA polymerase tends to work only in the cytoplasm thus is unable to transcribe genes in the nucleus. To remedy this limitation, the T7 polymerase was fused to a nuclear location signal peptide to localize the polymerase correctly.
Promega sells a T7 expression system for RNAi production.

Looking for Holistic/Spiritual University Degree Programs?
Your Path to Earning Holistic/Spiritual Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctor of Divinity Degrees
Are you trying to find a divinity degree that recognizes abilities that are overlooked by mainstream educational system? Then Awakenings' degree programs may be right for you. Awakenings offers programs that could be seen as a new paradigm in higher education.
Here are some key points that may help you to understand Awakenings' approach to earning divinity degrees:
- You can attend in your local community. Rather than having a campus and classrooms, Awakenings is a community-based university, where your own city or town is the "campus." This means that you can attend Awakenings Institute wherever you are. Awakenings honors the community, its resources, and existing educational institutions as viable learning environments.
- Awakenings regards learning as a lifelong process and helps you to integrate your most relevant spiritual/life experiences into your degree program. This integrates your studies into the broader and more profound context of your spiritual journey.
- There are no predetermined curriculums. With Awakenings, you as the learner design your own degree program with the guidance of your provost.
- You have the power to determine the direction of your program. Awakenings' approach is based on self-initiated learning and you are known as a "learner" rather than a "student." The distinction points to the difference between being an involved and empowered participant in the learning process and being a passive participant following a standardized curriculum.
- You receive individual guidance through the entire program. Rather than teachers, each learner works with a provost, who is his or her primary facilitator. Awakenings' provosts personally guide you through every aspect of your learning experience. The communication is done in person for those who are nearby, by phone from any location, and by e-mail.
Learners may also work with mentors for learning in their chosen fields. Mentors offer special expertise the learner wishes to acquire as part of the degree program. Awakenings highly qualified instructors also serve as mentors for those who seek degrees in fields that relate to their expertise. As the designer of your curriculum, you can likewise choose to have mentors in any spiritual/holistic field that serves you in your degree program.
- All of the courses offered by Awakenings are approved for university credits toward a Bachelor's, Master's or Doctor of Divinity degree from Awakenings Institute. Degree programs in Holistic Healing, Spiritual Counseling, and related studies incorporating EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Spiritual Kinesiology, Reiki, Holistic Hypnotherapy, and other healing modalities may be built around these courses.
How Long Are the Degree Programs?
Awakenings maintains high standards that you can be proud of. We generally enroll learners for one academic year (two semesters) each for Divinity Bachelor's and Master's degrees, and two academic years (four semesters) for Divinity Doctorate degrees. With the emphasis on individual attention, the exact length of your program is determined during the enrollment process.
What Are the Benefits of a Degree From Awakenings Institute?
Awakenings offers a unique opportunity for those seeking degrees that have personal meaning and are representative of the special abilities you have to offer. Some considerations:
- You will earn a reputable, legal degree. Though Awakenings Institute is not accredited like traditional universities, its divinity degrees receive the same legal recognition.
- You can help to forge of the future of education. Since Awakenings is not subject to the limitations placed on accredited universities, you have immense freedom and choices in relation to what you want to learn and how you want to learn it. This makes Awakenings Institute a good avenue for those in holistic/spiritual fields that are not currently represented in traditional universities. At the same time, it is worth noting that traditional schools may be more appropriate for those who are seeking licensing that requires an accredited degree or where specific technical training is needed.
- You can use credits from traditional colleges and universities as part of your degree program.
- As mentioned earlier, life learning is highly valued. You can receive credit for the valuable things you have learned throughout your life outside of a traditional classroom.
- You will receive individual guidance throughout your degree program. In fact, it is designed to bring out your unique approach to learning and integrate your educational experience into the larger context of your journey.
- There are no grades, which can impose artificial standards and sometimes negative influences on the learning process. Awakenings' learners are nurtured and guided to achieve their personal best and to achieve a level of excellence that is representative of the desired degree.
Awakenings Institute is recognized by the state of California as a nonprofit religious entity. As such, we are granted the authority by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education to offer Bachelor of Divinity, Master of Divinity, and Doctor of Divinity degree programs.

Leche Merengada Recipe | Spanish-food.org
HomeDessertsLeche Merengada
Leche Merengada
Origin: Spain
Leche merengada
Leche merengada or Spanish milk shake is a typical Spanish drink made with milk, egg whites and sweetened with sugar and aromatized with cinnamon. It's served very cold and in some cases part of the drink is frozen and with a texture similar to snow, making it the perfect summer drink. This is why it's normally served in ice-cream parlors in Spanish cities and "horchaterias" (shops where horchata, a typical Valencia drink, is sold in Valencia).
We don't know much about the origins of this popular drink, however it's a favorite of our grandparents, parents and children. It's normally consumed in summer as it's very refreshing.
Many children have among some of their fondest memories, those of when their grandparents took them to the town or neighborhood ice-cream parlor for a cone or a glass of leche merengada and would tell of their week's adventure while their faces and hair got smeared with the dessert.
Not only is leche merengada a tradition in itself, it also has it's own song:
Tengo una vaca lechera
no es una vaca cualquiera.
Me da leche merengada,
¡Ay! que vaca tan salada
Tolón, tolón. Tolón, tolón.
If you want to know the meaning of this song and many others we suggest a Spanish course in Spain. Songs and food are a great way of learning the Spanish language and they are often used as topics on such language courses.
In reality, this drink is considered a milk shake with egg white, although the basic recipe doesn't change, there are some variations. For instance, some cooks add a few espresso drops, lemon juice drops or vanilla. The recipe is really somewhere in between a milkshake and a milk sorbet. Often Spanish mothers will prepare the drink in the morning so that it has enough time to cool in the fridge or freezer before their children tuck into it. After a glass of it though, you might be thinking of making some more in the evening for the next day too!
Leche merengada has been one of the most popular and in demand drink in cafes in Madrid since the end of the 18th century and has appeared in many novels as summer drinks or ice-creams consumed by character, an example of this is Jacinto y Fortuna by Pérez-Galdós. Today it is still a staple recipe for any good Spanish cook book.
Fortunately, like many other Spanish food recipes, leche merengada is easy to make and uses common and easy to find ingredients. This means that it is a great one to make everyday or for special occasions. Furthermore, the ingredients are normally inexpensive which is great if you are on a tight budget yet still want to enjoy a little taste of Spanish cuisine.
Leche Merengada | Spanish Milk Shake
Leche Merengada
Ingredients (6 portions):
 - 1 liter of milk
 - 4 egg whites
 - 300 grams of sugar
 - 1 cinnamon branch
 - 1 lemon peel
 - a pinch of powdered cinnamon
 - Boil the milk for 5 minutes with the lemon's peel, the cinnamon branch and 250 grams.
 - Turn the stove off and let it cool
 - While the milk cools whisk the egg whites until they form peaks, you can add a few lemon drops, though it's not mandatory.
 - Add the remaining 50 grams of sugar and little by little pour the cold milk on the -meringue through a strainer
 - Put in the fridge if you want it liquid or in the freezer if you want to achieve an ice-cream like texture.
Some people leave the milkshake in the freezer for much longer in tubs so that it turns into ice cream. This means that the drink can serve as a dessert as well. In fact, you will find that a number of ice cream parlours in Spain do in fact have leche merengada ice cream in sale. Why not have a scoop!
Naturally, as an ice cold drink, this is perfect for hot summer days in Spain. But when you make it into an ice cream, it makes a great accompaniment to a piece of warm cake or tart, and can therefore be consumed all year round!

I have send an Encrypted email to Lotus notes in-box, If I access that email from my local Its giving true, If the same email is running different system Its giving false. Is it setting issue? My code look like logger.debug("This Email is encrypted? "+document.isEncrypted()); my Local logger is printing "This Email is encrypted? true" If i run the same email form some other system its printing "This Email is encrypted? false" This is the document properties. Field Name: Encrypt. Data Type: Text Data Length: 1 bytes Seq Num: 1 Dup Item ID: 0 Field Flags: SUMMARY
I don't know My code is behaving differently in different places.
Thanks for the help.

The isEncrypted() property is not related to the Encrypt field. That field is just a UI switch. The isEncrypted() property is based on the $Seal item, or on SMIME content if the message is in MIME format.
There are two questions that are probably related to what you are seeing:
 - Are you using two different Notes ID files to read the message?
 - Are you using the same version of Lotus Notes on both systems?
If you open an encrypted message in the Notes API, and your current Notes ID file contains the correct private key to decrypt the message, then the message is automatically decrypted. This happens in a layer down below the LotusScrpt and Java APIs, so these APIs see that the document is not encrypted and return false. But apparently IBM changed this in version 8.5.2. Here's a link that reports that in 8.5.2 the isEncrypted() will return true. It seems that IBM has fixed the code so that it now knows the right answer even though the automatic decryption was already done.
And of course, if you open an encrypted message in the Notes API using a Notes ID file that doesn't contain the correct private key to decrypt the message, IsEncrypted() will always return true.

Thanks for replying Richard. I am using same notes id for reading the message. Yes there is two different versions. I am using lotus 8.5 and my testing system has lotus 8.0 on that. Is it version issue? – Sarma Oct 1 '12 at 16:55
This post on the IBM DeveloperWorks forum indicates that it is not a version problem until 8.5.2: www-10.lotus.com/ldd/nd85forum.nsf/… – Richard Schwartz Oct 1 '12 at 19:22

I would like to control my dc motor using the Arduino Uno WiFi Rev2 using an html range slider. Now I can control the motors speed and direction using push buttons just fine. My code is posted below of what I've done so far.
client.println(".class-name{writing-mode: bt-lr; webkit-appearance: slider-vertical;width: 8px;height: 175px;padding: 0 5px;}");
client.println("");
This code below is the current button code. I need the below code to be used by the slider code above:
if (currentLine.endsWith("GET /MONFWD")) {
digitalWrite(MOTOR_A_ONE, HIGH); // Establishes forward direction of Channel A
delay(1000); // DELAY BEFORE RELEASING BRAKE
digitalWrite(MOTOR_A_TWO, LOW); // Disengage the Brake for Channel A
analogWrite(MOTOR_A_ENGAGE, 255); // Spins the motor forward on Channel A at full speed
 - 1
 And what is your question? You didn't ask one. Please describe, what exactly your problem is in writing the needed code. – chrisl Oct 18 '19 at 1:05
Here's an example of slider that changes a Servo speed, In html page code you have to add this:

 Value:
var slider = document.getElementById("myRange");
var output = document.getElementById("demo");
output.innerHTML = slider.value;
slider.onchange = function() {
 output.innerHTML = this.value;
function pwm_change(val) {
 var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
 xhttp.open("GET", "setPWM?PWMval="+val, true);
In arduino you have to define handler like this:
void handle_pwm() {
 String pwm_val = server.arg("PWMval"); // reading from slider on html pagae
 Serial.print("slider val: ");
int pwm_value = map(pwm_val.toInt(), 0, 1023, 0, 180);
server.send(200,"text/plane","0"); // handling the webpage update
And define servo and handler in Setup() section:
void setup(void){
server.on("/setPWM", handle_pwm);
 - I'm not using the servo.h library...I'm using a motor shield which already works with the push buttons....if I ignore the servo.write and servo.attach arguments the code should work fine correct? – PilotinControl Oct 18 '19 at 18:14
 - Also the above code is not compatible with the Arduino Uno WiFi Rev 2. It does not use server.on or server.arg – PilotinControl Oct 18 '19 at 20:44
 - no difference, you can follow the above example for both motor shield and Uno WIFI board, just replace servo.write() command with motor.setSpeed() for changing DC motor's speed in motor shield.just need to map slider value (0-1023) to your motor speed range,that is usually (0-255). And by using libraries like WiFiNINA, you can have server.xyz arguments for Uno Wifi board so. – M sayeh Oct 18 '19 at 21:46
 - I am using the WiFiNINA library and there are no equivalents for server.arg and server.on except for client.read and client.println. Also no matter where I put the function handle_pwm it throws errors. The slider works fine as I did change the values there. Its getting the function to line up with the slider that its not working. I currently have 3 push buttons that work. Motor FWD, MotorREV and MotorBrake those work fine. I just need a slider to control the motor speed smoothly – PilotinControl Oct 18 '19 at 23:04
 - the above example is originally written for Nodemcu board,It enjoys much easier libraries to parse http requests,like ESP8266 WebServer lib including server.arg command and etc... for Arduino Uno WiFi Rev 2,it is not seemingly as various as nodemcu,so,you should deal with the http requests with commands like client.read(), currentLine.endsWith() and equivalents like this. – M sayeh Oct 19 '19 at 0:00

What are Difference between Covariance and Correlation
Distinguish, differentiate, compare and explain what is the Difference between Covariance and Correlation. Comparison and Differences.
Difference between Covariance and Correlation
Correlation is the standardized form of covariance.
Covariances are difficult to compare. For example: if we calculate the covariances of salary ($) and age (years), we'll get different covariances which can't be compared because of having unequal scales. To combat such situation, we calculate correlation to get a value between -1 and 1, irrespective of their respective scale.

Yalwal is the site of a former gold mining town of the same name situated 29 km (18 mi) west of Nowra at the confluence of the Dangera and Yarramunmun Creeks which then forms Yalwal Creek which flows into the Shoalhaven River. It is now the site of a City of Shoalhaven managed picnic area and Dangera Dam.
Gold was first discovered in the area by Rev W.B. Clarke in 1852. Successful sluicing operations began in 1870 by J. Sivewright and party but were disrupted by the great flood of 1871. In 1872 open cut mining operations were begun at the Pinnacle when the main reef was discovered. The first shafts were sunk in the Homeward Bound mine in 1872 with payable gold found in 1874. In 1875 the first stamp battery (5 head) was erected. In 1880 a mail receiving station was opened and in 1884 a public school opened, it closed in 1918, reopened in 1924 and finally closed in 1928.

Magic resistance (or MR) is a stat that all units have, including minions, monsters, and buildings. Increasing magic resistance reduces the magic damage the unit takes. Each champion begins with some magic resistance which may increase with level. You can gain additional magic resistance from abilities, items, masteries, and runes. Magic resistance stacks additively.
All champions begin with 30 base magic resistance. No ranged champions gain magic resistance per level, but many melee champions do, with 52.5 being the maximum magic resistance possible without items, runes, masteries, or ally buffs.
Incoming magic damage is multiplied by a factor based on the unit's magic resistance:
- Damage multiplier = 100 / (100 + MR) if MR ≥ 0
- Damage multiplier = 2 − 100 / (100 − MR) if MR ≤ 0
- 25 magic resistance → ×0.8 incoming magic damage (20% reduction).
- 100 magic resistance → ×0.5 incoming magic damage (50% reduction).
- −25 magic resistance → ×1.2 incoming magic damage (20% increase).
Stacking magic resistance编辑
Every point of magic resistance requires a unit to take 1% more of its maximum health in magic damage to be killed. This is called "effective health."
- Example: A unit with 60 magic resistance has 60% of its maximum health in its effective health, so if the unit has 1000 maximum health, it will take 1600 magic damage to kill it.
What this means: by definition, magic resistance does not have diminishing returns, because each point increases the unit's effective health against magic damage by 1% of its current actual health value whether the unit has 10 magic resistance or 1000 magic resistance.
- Note: Unlike health, increasing magic resistance also makes healing more effective because it takes more effort to remove the unit's health than it does to restore it.

Non-Negative Principal Component Analysis for Face Recognition
Principle component analysis is often combined with the state-of-art classification algorithms to recognize human faces. However, principle component analysis can only capture these features contributing to the global characteristics of data because it is a global feature selection algorithm. It misses those features contributing to the local characteristics of data because each principal component only contains some levels of global characteristics of data. In this paper, the authors present a novel face recognition approach using non-negative principal component analysis which is added with the constraint of non-negative to improve data locality and contribute to elucidating latent data structures. Experiments are performed on the Cambridge ORL face database. They demonstrate the strong performances of the algorithm in recognizing human faces in comparison with PCA and NREMF approaches.


Life-Cycle Hypothesis (LCH)
Definition of 'Life-Cycle Hypothesis (LCH)'
The Life-Cycle Hypothesis (LCH) is an economic theory that pertains to the spending and saving habits of people over the course of a lifetime. The concept was developed by Franco Modigliani and his student Richard Brumberg. LCH presumes that individuals base consumption on a constant percentage of their anticipated life income. An example supporting the hypothesis is that people save for retirement while they are earning a regular income (rather than spending it all when it is earned).
Investopedia explains 'Life-Cycle Hypothesis (LCH)'
The Life Cycle Hypothesis concludes that the average propensity to consume is greater in both young and aging individuals, since they are borrowing against future income (in the case of young individuals) or using savings (as with aging or retired individuals). Middle-aged people, on the other hand, have a greater propensity to save and a lower propensity to consume, enhanced by a typically higher income.

text: Abstract: We describe case studies of clinically significant changes in sedentary behavior of older adults captured with a novel computer vision algorithm for depth data. An unobtrusive Microsoft Kinect sensor continuously recorded older adults' activity in the primary living spaces of TigerPlace apartments. Using the depth data from a period of ten months, we develop a context aware algorithm to detect person-specific postural changes (sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit events) that define sedentary behavior. The robustness of our algorithm was validated over 33,120 minutes of data for 5 residents against manual analysis of raw depth data as the ground truth, with a strong correlation (r=0.937, p<0.001) and mean error of 17 minutes/day. Our findings are highlighted in two case studies of sedentary activity and its relationship to clinical assessments of functional decline. Our findings show strong potential for future research towards a generalizable platform to automatically study sedentary behavior patterns with an in-home activity monitoring system.

text: first i have a quick question, for average power of a transverse harmonic wave the equation has the quantities tension, frequency and amplitude. the question asks me to find how much i need to change each quantity to increase the power by a factor of 100, i understand all that but then it asks me which quantity is the easiest to change. i got that the tension needed to be increased by a factor of 10000, and the frequency and amplitude only needed a factor of 10, im not quite sure if frequency or amplitude is easier to change, im guessing frequency because amplitude cannot be directly changed, whereas frequency you just move the string up and down faster? anyways to the question im having trouble with: 1) the linear mass density of a nonuniform wire under constant tension decreases gradually along the wire so that an incident wave is transmitted without reflection. The wire in uniform for -infinity < x <= 0. In this region a transverse wave has the form y(x,t) = 0.003cos(25x-50t) with x,y in meteres and t in seconds. From x = 0 to x =20m the mass density decreases from initial mass density to (initial mass density / 4). For 20<= x < infinity, the mass density is constant at (initial mass density / 4). a) what is the wave velocity for large values of x b)what is the amplitude for large values of x? c) give y(x,t) for the large values of x i got part a and it turns out to be 4 m/s, but i dont know what to do to get the amplitude, also in part c how do i find the k and w(omega)? is the k constant?

Filter child dashboards from a parent dashboard
You can embed child dashboards inside a parent dashboard, and filter them from the parent dashboard. For example, you have a dashboard and want to display it inside a parent dashboard. At the same time, you want to add a filter control on the parent dashboard that will allow users to filter data on the child dashboard.
3. Add a child dashboard
- Create a dashboard, or use an existing one.
- Add a viewParameter.
4. Add parent dashboard
- Create a new dashboard.
- Drag and drop the child dashboard to the dashboard canvas.
- Add a Member Filter. This will be used to filter the child dashboard.
- Setup the member filter and connect to the child dashboards' parameter.
If you used regular filters on the child dashboard, you can prevent them from displaying on the parent dashboard by ticking the Hide Parameter Controls checkbox.

Kinematic singularity avoidance for robot manipulators using set-based manipulability tasks
MetadataShow full item record
This paper proposes a novel method for kinematic singularity avoidance for robot manipulators. Using set-based singularity avoidance tasks within the singularity-robust multiple task priority framework, avoidance of kinematic singularities is guaranteed without interfering with the convergence of compatible equality tasks. Non-compatible equality tasks will still be fulfilled to the extent possible. In addition, the method can be used to reconfigure the robot into a more dexterous configuration. The proposed method is applicable to both redundant and nonredundant robots, with both fixed base and floating base. The implementation is generic and independent of the type and number of tasks. Although also applicable for non-redundant fixed base robot manipulators, this novel approach is particularly well suited for highly redundant and/or floating base manipulators, since the robot configuration can be changed to improve the dexterity of the manipulator arm. We demonstrate the method by applying it to an underwater swimming manipulator, which is an innovative and highly redundant underwater floating base manipulator. Furthermore, simulation results are presented that illustrate and validate the proposed method.

Pouring water I
Water Puzzle
Pouring water II
Given three bowls: 8, 5 and 3 liters capacity, divide 8 liters in half (4 + 4 liters) with the minimum number of water transfers. Note that the 8-liter bowl is initially filled with 8 liters of water and the other two bowls are empty - that is all water you have.
Pouring water III
Given three bowls: 7, 4 and 3 liters capacity. Only the 7-liter is full. Pouring the water the fewest number of times, make the quantities of 2, 2, and 3 liters.
Pouring water IV
How can you measure 6 liters of water using only 4 and 9-liter bowls?
Pouring water V
Water Glasses
Measure exactly 2 liters of water if you have:
1. 4 and 5-liter glass
2. 4 and 3-liter glass
Pouring water VI
Given three bowls: bowl A (8 liters capacity) filled with 5 liters of water; bowl B (5 liters capacity) filled with 3 liters of water; and bowl C (3 liters capacity) filled with 2 liters of water.
Can you measure exactly 1 liter, by transferring the water only 2 times?
Weighing I
Digital Scale
You have 10 bags with 1000 coins each. In one of the bags, all coins are forgeries. A true coin weighs 1 gram; each counterfeit coin weighs 1.1 gram.
If you have an accurate scale, which you can use only once, how can you identify the bag with the forgeries? And what if you didn't know how many bags contained counterfeit coins?
Weighing II
A genuine gummy drop bear has a mass of 10 grams, while an imitation gummy drop bear has a mass of 9 grams. Spike has 7 cartons of gummy drop bears, 4 of which contain real gummy drop bears and the others - imitation.
Using a scale only once and the minimum number of gummy drop bears, how can Spike determine which cartons contain real gummy drop bears?
Weighing III
This puzzle goes a step further from the previous one.
You have eight bags, each of them containing 48 coins. Five of those bags contain only true coins, the rest of them contain fake coins. A fake coin weighs 1 gram less than a real coin. You have an accurate scale, with the precision of up to 1 gram.
Weighing only once and using the minimum number of coins, how can you find the bags containing the fake coins?
Weighing IV
Unbalanced Scale
Weighing V
On a Christmas tree there were two blue, two red, and two white balls. All seemed same. However, in each color pair, one ball was heavier. All three lighter balls weighed the same, just like all three heavier balls.
Using a balance scale twice, identify the lighter balls.
Weighing VI
There are 9 similar balls. Eight of them weigh the same and the ninth is a bit heavier.
How would you identify the heavier ball if you could use a two-pan balance scale only twice?
Weighing VII
Given 27 table tennis balls, one is heavier than the others.
What is the minimum number of weighings (using a two-pan balance scale) needed to guarantee identifying the heavy one? Of course, the other 26 balls weigh the same.
Weighing VIII
Suppose that the objects to be weighed may range from 1 to 121 pounds at 1-pound intervals: 1, 2, 3,..., 119, 120 and 121. After placing one such weight on either of two weighing pans of a pair of scales, one or more precalibrated weights are then placed in either or both pans until a balance is achieved, thus determining the weight of the object.
If the relative positions of the lever, fulcrum, and pans may not be changed, and if one may not add to the initial set of precalibrated weights, what is the minimum number of such weights that would be sufficient to bring into balance any of the 121 possible objects?
Hourglass I
Sandglass Sandglass
Having 2 sandglasses: one 7-minute and the second one 4-minute, how can you correctly time 9 minutes?
Hourglass II
A teacher of mathematics used an unconventional method to measure a 15-minute time limit for a test. He just used 7 and 11-minutehourglasses. During the whole time he turned sandglasses only 3 times (turning both hourglasses at once count as one flip).
Explain how the teacher measured 15 minutes.
Burning Fuses
Your job is to measure 45 minutes, if you have only two cords and matches to light the cords.
 1. The two cords are twisted from various materials and so their different segments can burn at different rates.
 2. Each cord burns from end to end in exactly one hour.

There are a number of materials we can use for paths and driveways, but one of the most cost-effective is deco granite. Charlie Albone shows us how to get the mix right.
Looking for a great solution for your paths and driveways - consider deco granite! Here are my expert DIY tips:
- It's cheaper than concrete and if you're laying a big area, like a drive, it can save you a chunk of money.
- Deco Granite comes in pink, brown or gold and is relatively easy to use.
- Simply mark the area where you want the path to go and dig it out to about 100mm.
- I'm going to stabilize the granite by adding a 5 per cent mix of white cement. That's about 1 bag of cement per tonne of deco granite.
- If you're doing a driveway – then double that by 10 per cent or 2 bags of cement to a tonne of granite.
- It's important to get the mix right - if you use too much cement the finished surface will be chalky - not enough and it won't set properly.
- If you're using bricks to create an edge like I am here – this is the time to lay them.
- Put the granite into the dug out area and level it off with a rake.
- Because the mix is quite dusty I'm going to give it a light mist with water.
- It's vital not to soak the granite as this will cause the cement to rise to the surface and create a hard layer.
- Hammer down the path with a plate compactor until you get it nice and level.
- Give the path a quick brush with a boom to get rid of any excess water or bits of cement and leave to dry for around 1 to 2 days.
- One of the things I like best about deco granite is it's a porous - so, if you've done the job properly, water simply drains off the surface.

Croatia has introduced a number of reforms to contain pharmaceutical expenditure whilst increasing access to new medicines. These include new regulations and new ordinances in 2013 including the pricing of new medicines and lowering the price of generics. Describe changes in the 2013 ordinance for new and established medicines in Croatia and the potential savings to provide future guidance. Methods: Descriptive review of the new ordinances for pricing and reimbursement of pharmaceuticals and calculations of potential savings from the various initiatives. There were changes in the ordinance for the pricing of new medicines in Croatia including the order of reference priced countries. There were also changes in the pricing of biosimilars as well as comparator levels with other countries. Projections show that with the new ordinance, ambulatory care expenditure for the 54 product groups (internal reference price system) will be reduced by 9.64% (318.4 million kunas) and prices of new medicines lowered by 8 to 10% following changes in the order of referenced price countries. This paper demonstrates that changes in the reference pricing system can lead to considerable differences in overall reimbursed expenditure. In addition, European countries with smaller populations can be active with introducing a variety of measures to keep pharmaceutical expenditure under control whilst increasing access to new medicines. Further reforms will be needed to improve the quality of prescribing. It is also likely further ordinances will be needed to keep pharmaceutical expenditure under control.

Trench Shoring Cages are Actually Trench Safety Devices

Excavation has always been known as dangerous work. Workers in this industry have a far greater chance of being killed than general construction trades; hence shoring cages are used.
As a solution, standards were created that identify common hazards found when having individuals work in trenches. Each employer is responsible for ensuring that each excavation is free of identified and predictable hazards. To do this, employers must designate a representative to design, construct and maintain the work area so that they will be free of hazards. A person assigned to this role is known as the qualified person. A trench is an excavation that has a greater depth than its width measured at the bottom. Employees who work in trenches that are 5 feet deep must be protected from a cave-in (a mass of soil separated from the bank of a trench) by a trench protective system.
Trench Shoring vs. Shoring Cages
Trench shoring should not be confused with trench shielding. In the end, they both serve the same purpose, which is to protect but they also function in different ways of protecting. Shoring cages are designed to protect workers in the event of a collapse or cave-in, while trench shores are designed to prevent the collapse or cave-in from ever occurring. Because trench shores examine a way to prevent all potential hazards of a work area, it is viewed as the safer and better option, even though it is more time-consuming.
The soil inside of a trench can sometimes be of a type that has an unconfined strength. Meaning a type of soil that has insufficient strength to stand unsupported. A type of soil that tends to run or slough into the excavation as the trench is being dug and worked by the worker(s). An excavation is a work area is not is not considered a work area until the workers actually begin working.
This would be the point where the qualified person would review and make an assessment of the potential dangers of the type soil workers would have to work with. If known and/or predictable hazards are found, a trench box system must be in place prior to the start of any work by the workers.
Shoring Cages and the Qualified Person
The assessment done by the qualified person will determine what type of trench shoring boxes will be used. Shoring cages are a type commonly used.
Trench shoring is the process of securing the wall surfaces of a trench. Having this safety equipment is extremely important for the well-being and protection of the work area and workers as they work on projects that require them to work inside of deep trenches.
There are several methods of trench shoring. A common method is hydraulic shores.
Hydraulic shoring products are lightweight that utilize hydraulic pressure to support banks of excavation. As the hydraulic cylinders are pressurized against trench walls, pressure arcs will radiate from the center of the cylinder in many different directions. If nearby shores are located close enough for the arcs to intersect, pressure arches will be formed. These arches shore the banks. These pressure arches fan out into the banks; supporting the soil without the presence of sheeting.
Other methods of shoring cages are beam and plate and more solid boarding. However, hydraulic shoring works faster than these and tend to be the choice for larger excavations.
When it comes to safety in construction, the biggest danger is having a situation occur where workers become trapped in dirt and materials. Trench shoring was developed as a method to prevent these types of situations.

Thinking With Pigs
Certain animals, as the anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss explained in his study of totemism, are good for thinking with (Totemism, 1963). Here are a collection of quotations from individuals, both eminent and obscure, that use pigs in their speech.
In our thoughts and words, pigs are generous figures of speech. They freely lend their intrinsic nature to us for simile and metaphor, hyperbole and idiom. Pigs are also handy to use in personification or in analogy and allegory. And pigs are certainly good for swearing.
The thought of 'pig' in all its attendant meanings is an indispensable element of language in every culture that has encountered the pig. Handy and useful, 'pig' augments the meaning of many concepts — appearance, attitude, behavior, food and even currency.
Throughout the pig's association with man, their use to think and speak with has farrowed ideas and images as fit for a reflective pig as for a man to consider. Many within our swinish multitude have seen fit to utilize the pig in thoughts and words and our world is far richer for it.

The Real Hammer House of Horror: Oakley Court Hotel Windsor
Brian Langston is a retired Assistant Chief Constable now living in Southern France where he writes on crime, mysteries and the paranormal.
The Oakley Court Hotel near Windsor. Is this one of England's most haunted houses?
Supernatural Pedigree
To the west of Windsor lies the pretty village of Oakley Green which is dominated by Oakley Court, an extraordinary high-gothic mansion built on the banks of the Thames in 1859 by Sir Richard Hall-Say. Local legend claims that the house was built in the style of a French Chateau to comfort his homesick French wife. In fact, his wife was Edith Evans from nearby Boveney and the house, although magnificent, could not be described as French.
Nevertheless, it does have some French credentials. In 1919, it was bought by Ernest Olivier the Turkish Consul-General in Monte Carlo. During the Second World War, through his influence, the house became the secret headquarters of the French Resistance and Charles De Gaulle stayed in one of the bedrooms.
In 1955, Bray Studios opened next door, and the impressive tower and foreboding facade of Oakley Court became a splendidly atmospheric setting for many of their films. In 1965, after the death of Olivier, the house was left uninhabited for 14 years. During this time, Hammer and other filmmakers seized the opportunity to cast it as a creepy haunted house or Dracula's castle in over 200 films, including the Hammer Classics like The Brides of Dracula (1962), The Reptile (1966) and The Plague of the Zombies (1966). The house also featured in The Old Dark House 1963, And Now the Screaming Starts (1973), The Vampyres (1974), Murder by Death (1976) and the Peter Cook and Dudley Moore film, The Hound of the Baskervilles (1978). It is perhaps best known as Dr. Frank N. Furter's castle (called 'The Frankenstein Place') in The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975).
Tragic Unexplained Deaths
The sinister pedigree was not, however, confined to the silver screen. From the late 1960s, the house was converted into flats, and it is during this period that the paranormal activity in and around the house intensified to the extent that it became described not only as haunted but evil. Residents reported hearing strange banging noises coming from parts of the house which were not occupied. Ghostly figures appeared at night driving away several tenants. Bad luck and tragedy befell many who lived there, and the atmosphere around the building apparently became so oppressive that it caused many people to commit suicide in the Thames. One man drowned in 1971 after falling from a pleasure steamer; his body was recovered near the house.
Another tragic case involved Penelope Gallerneault, aged 26, who moved into an apartment in the converted servants' quarters of Oakley Court with her husband and four children.
Friends had warned the family before they moved in that the place was haunted and had a previous history of accidents involving death by drowning. Penelope and her husband dismissed the stories as fanciful and reveled in their beautiful new riverside home. Little did they know that this was to be the worst decision they ever made. Within three years, two of their children would be dead, and their lives would be in turmoil.
The horror began in the summer of 1972 when Mrs. Gallerneault first sensed that something was very wrong at Oakley Court.
"'I started to see people walking in the grounds wearing hoods. This was accompanied by an overwhelming feeling of dread" she said. "Then one morning I found a box on the doorstep. When I opened it I was horrified to see the body of one of my cats with its neck broken". Although this was reported to the police, it was never discovered who was responsible but added to the rumors that evil forces were at work at Oakley Court.
Catastrophe struck shortly afterward when, in December, her two-year-old son, William, drowned. Mrs. Gallerneault was running him a bath when the phone rang. When she returned a few minutes later, he was floating dead in the water.
"I realise that many people might try to blame me for being careless, but that is just not the case. In a rambling old house like that, there are so many precautions you have to take.She told a newspaper in 1973.
Her grief was compounded when within months another almost identical tragedy struck the family. Her second son Edward, who was just two, was left in his playpen in the grounds of the house. Inexplicably, he managed to climb out, toddled down to the river, fell in and was drowned. The family was devastated and left the house shortly afterward, although their marriage did not survive the trauma.
Mrs Gallerneault told reporters, 'The house has an aura of evil, and I could never go back there. Horror films being made there might seem like a joke. I'm sure evil has rubbed off on the place or something awful has been invoked."
The Rev. Sebastian Jones, curate of St Michael's Church, Bray, added; "Oakley Court is definitely "spooky" and I would not want to stay there myself. Evil can generate evil, and the grounds would be an ideal place to practice black magic."
A senior policeman said at the time: "There have been some strange happenings at the house, which have never been fully explained. We made regular patrols after complaints about witchcraft being practiced and things seem to have quietened down now."
The house has an aura of evil and I would never go back there...

Disturbed Spirits
However, things did not remain quiet for very long. During its conversion to a hotel in the late 1970s, there were a number of strange incidents which further cemented its reputation of being one of the country's most haunted houses. On one occasion, workers fled the site when a pair of internal double doors burst open in front of them and glasses were smashed around them as if thrown by an unseen assailant.
The development was dogged with continuous electrical faults, and tools went missing and strange noises were heard coming from parts of the building they knew were unoccupied.
One contractor remarked; "From the day we started on the site we were plagued by inexplicable events. It was as though we were not welcome in the house and everything happened to delay the work or drive us away."
Workers refused to stay at the house after dark and ghost-like figures were seen on several occasions in the grounds. In response to damage being committed in the house overnight, the developers installed resident security guards but a succession of night watchman came and went after reporting hearing mournful moaning noises coming from the upper floors and the sound of people "marching on the roof." One of them narrowly escaped death after falling through the roof while investigating the strange noises.

A Time Slip Experienced?
In 1981, it finally opened its doors as a hotel, but the refurbishment failed to dislodge the ghostly entities. It became a regular tea spot for the Windsor police night shift, and before long, stories eerie new phenomena began to emerge from the night porters, who welcomed the nocturnal visits by the local police.
Phantom hooded figures were still observed stalking the grounds. The sound of a 'break shot' was heard coming from the billiard room in the middle of the night but when reception staff investigated they found the balls still in position and nothing had been touched.
In recent years, room 117 has acquired the reputation of being the most haunted after guests have reported seeing ghostly apparitions and even a possible time slip during their stay there.
One guest awoke in the middle of the night after sensing someone was standing next to his bed. He could make out a shadowy figure in the gloom and switched on the bedside light. He then saw standing beside the bed what he described as a 19th century gentleman in evening dress. He noticed that the room had also changed shape.
The ghost stood motionless until the guest leaped out of bed in fright and the spirit just melted away into the ether and the room reconfigured back to its correct shape. Inquiries later revealed that the configuration seen by the guest was, in fact, the original layout of the room before the refurbishment of the house although the identity of the ghost remains unknown.
Phantom Photograph
The manager of Oakley Court reports that to this day some staff will not go into one of the upstairs rooms due to an oppressive atmosphere and a feeling of being continually watched.
Guests have complained about knocks on their bedroom doors in the middle of the night and when checking have found no-one there. Visitors have also reported phantom images appearing on their camera shots. One such photograph is displayed in the hotel and shows a ghostly figure sitting at a dining table which the photographer and his companion insist, was empty when the picture was taken.
Psychics investigators claim that a pervading sense of menace still shrouds Oakley Court and it is this, rather than simply the imposing architecture and gruesome gargoyles, that accounts for the shiver down the spine which many visitors experience, when crossing the threshold for the first time.

mazeFX - less paths
older versions v1.40 and newer
The speed and efficiency of the maze generation algorithm is vastly improved in version 1.40.
mazeFX now produces over 60% less vertices and path shapes!
On the above example of a 30x30 (900cells) maze, the new algorithm generated
579 paths instead of the 1801 paths the old version did.
mazeFX v1.1 - bezier masks
v1.0 v1.1 and newer
Old versions of mazeFX supported only masks with linear points/vertices. If your mask(s) contained any
bezier (curved) points, it would just be ignored. From v1.1, mazeFX supports bezier masks natively!
 mazeFX v1.1 - null helper
mazeFX can now generate a null helper layer that is attached at the tip of the solution
path and follows its position.
The main purpose of this new null helper is to make it easier to parent any layer to the tip of the solution path.
This option is only available in After Effects CC2018 and above.
