cache, or L2 cache (level 2). The primary cache memory is embedded in the processor itself and is fast enough to keep up with speed. Whenever a new processor is developed, a faster type of cache memory must also be developed to accompany it. As this type of memory is extremely expensive (it is hundreds of times more expensive than conventional RAM memory) only a small amount of it is used. To complement this, a slightly slower type of cache memory is also used, which is called secondary cache, which, because it is much cheaper, allows you to use a greater quantity.
How to install cache memory?
First, you must make sure that the motherboard allows the installation of cache memory. The motherboards that allow installation have a socket called COAST where the cache memory module is placed. Generally, you need to change the cache size configuration jumpers. The correct position of the jumpers must be consulted in the manual of the plate. If after this configuration the PC does not turn on, it means that the cache memory module is faulty or is incompatible with the motherboard. In this case, the module must be changed. When everything is working, the memory cache should be enabled in the PC BIOS.
Check the existence of cache memory on the PC?
There are several programs for this purpose. One of them is called PC-Config, it is shareware and can be downloaded for free on the internet. In addition to testing the cache, this program does not provide important information about the PC, such as the type of memory installed and the type of chipset.

The MA920 probe is a food grade probe for use with the MW101 or MW102 PRO pH meters.
The Milwaukee food grade probe is specifically designed for the pH analysis of semisolid foods such as processed meats, soft cheeses, soups, sauces, and sushi rice.
Top features include:
The open junction design reduces clogging from suspended solids and proteins found in food and dairy products for a more stable pH measurement and reduced maintenance.
CONICAL GLASS TIP
The conical shaped tip design allows for penetration into solids, semi solids, and emulsions for the direct measurement of pH in a variety of food products.
Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a food grade plastic that is resistant to most chemicals and solvents used for disinfection in the food sector, including chlorine (bleach).
USE AND CARE
pH meters usually start performing poorly because of problems with the probe. The two parts of the pH probe that cause problems are the glass sensing bulb and the reference junction.
The glass bulb loses sensitivity with use and will eventually fail. This is true of all pH probes.
The reference junction is a small hole that allows the meter to compare the sample to a reference. The reading is generated based on the electrical difference between the sample and reference. If the junction hole gets clogged, the pH probe will no longer function.
You can extend the life of your pH electrode in the following ways.
The pH probe needs to be kept hydrated. Long periods of dry storage will damage the sensitivity of the probe. Allowing the probe to dry out may also result in the junction hole getting clogged.
Storing in pH probe storage solution or pH calibration buffers will help address both these issues. Do not store in tap water and DI water. This will damage the sensitivity of the probe.
The best way to store the probe is with the probe's cap filled with storage solution or calibration buffer and the cap tightened to prevent leakage. It is also recommended that to store the electrode upright to further reduce the potential for leakage.
Residue from the sample can impact the sensitivity of the sensing bulb and clog the junction. This is especially true if the sample has a lot of organic material. We recommend regularly soaking your electrode in cleaning solution.
The pH sensing bulbs become less sensitive over time so make sure that you are calibrating regularly to keep your PRO pH meter accurate. Also, calibrate after cleaning or a long period of storage.

Gamers now have the perfect excuse to sit in front of their computers all day - they can perform a public service.
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, have designed an online game that aims to harness players' brainpower to help make websites more accessible to blind people.
Visually impaired people often use text-to-speech converters called screen readers to listen to the content of web pages spoken by a synthesised voice. However, the pictures on most websites remain inaccessible because very few have detailed captions to accurately describe them.
The online game "Phetch", which will be made available at _URL_ is designed to encourage other web users to generate these missing captions. Played in groups of three to five people, it randomly assigns the role of "describer" to one player; the rest become "seekers".
Seek and find
The game then serves up a randomly chosen website image to the describer, who has to write a pithy short paragraph about it. The words are then sent to the seekers, who use search engines to hunt down the correct picture on the web. The first seeker to find the image becomes the describer in the next round.
If the describer's description is good enough to lead the seekers to the picture, it is stored as a caption for that image. If not, the attempt is discarded.
"We hope to collect captions for every image on the web," says Shiry Ginosar, a member of the Phetch team. In tests, 130 players generated 1400 captions over the course of a week. At this rate, she says, just 5000 people could annotate all the pictures indexed by Google Images in just 10 months.
But Ginosar admits getting web designers the world over to use the better captions may be tricky. "We are just concerned about gathering caption data right now," she says.
Julie Howell from the UK's Royal National Institute for the Blind says the game addresses a pressing issue. "The web is a great resource but as it becomes more picture-led and graphical it should not become less accessible for the blind," she told New Scientist. "It's true that many pictures are simply uncaptioned or just have a filename."
The CMU team previously developed another game "Peekaboom" to help improve image recognition algorithms. This game involves two players: the first must reveal key parts of an image to the second person, who must try to guess what is being revealed. The theory is that players will reveal the most important parts of an image first. This could help computers better identify unfamiliar images by focusing on the most significant features.

Why the Name: Port-Gentil?
Map of Gabon
I have always wondered why the second largest city of Gabon is named Port-Gentil… Is it full of kind agreeable souls? Is it a gentle town, very laid-back? Otherwise, why will it be named that way?
Emile Gentil in 1902
Well, to my surprise, Port-Gentil is named after the French colonial administrator Émile Gentil who served there in 1902. I have a lot of doubts that the man was a kind or gentle soul. From stories of these colonial administrators in Africa, many were more on the ruthless and disagreeable side, particularly towards Africans, whom they saw as savages. Indeed, after investigation into Emile Gentil, it turns out that he had been accused of massacres in Congo in 1905, but had been cleared by the Lanessan commission (what are indigenous' words against a European's?… particularly in those days); he was also part of the expedition that was trying to conquer Rabah, a powerful warrior leader in Chad. Gentil is best known for heading two military missions to conquer and consolidate territories north, from modern Gabon up to Chad. … Thus it is only a tiny shot to imagine the atrocities left in his wake… So why is the second largest city of Gabon still named after someone like that? Someone who murdered Gabonese, and other Africans? I know, it sounds sweet, "gentil", but knowing the source of the name and the atrocities committed against the indigenous populations, why keep the name? If "gentle" is so important, why not translate it into the local language, or roll back to the original name, which is Mandji. It absolutely makes no sense for a city on African soil to bear the name of someone who has been accused of massacres by contemporaries on that very land!
Port-Gentil, Gabon
For completeness, Port-Gentil is located on Lopez Island (in the mouth of the navigable Ogooué River) and on a bay sheltered by Cape Lopez, which juts into the Atlantic Ocean. As the nation's chief port and industrial centre, it is linked by air to Paris and major West African hubs as well as many Gabonese towns. Life in Port-Gentil is much more laid-back than Libreville. It is Gabon's economic engine, and massive oil and gas rigs loom just off the coast. The city stretches along the beach, is full of pleasant wide streets and a bustling port. One block back from the corniche, Ave Savorgnan de Brazza (named after another European who massacred Africans) has most of the banks, shops and restaurants. Port-Gentil sits on a peninsula; it is actually an island, cut off from the mainland by the delta of the Ogooué River.
Surprisingly, just like many places coveted by Europeans on the African continent, there are no roads connecting Port-Gentil to the rest of the country. How outrageous! How come in 2021, there are no roads connecting the second largest city of a country, the industrial hub, to the rest of it? This seems like a wanted political decision, especially when the country, Gabon, has been the milk cow of Elf, the defunct French oil company (now Total), and is still a big milk cow of France today.
So even though, as always, I would like you to visit the sandy beaches of Port-Gentil, and enjoy the warm hospitality of the Gabonese, I think it is about time that the city be renamed! Lastly, ROADS, connections to the rest of the country are a MUST!!!

Lot line adjustments and lot line splits are two distinct legal applications that involve a City and/or County for various reasons, and one should not be confused or conducted without first understanding the implications of each. This article is not intended to be an in-depth discussion of the Subdivision Map Act or the Subdivided Lands Law.
Lot Line Adjustments:
A lot line adjustment applies to four or fewer existing adjoining (abutting) parcels of land. The land is taken from one parcel and is legally added to an adjoining parcel. This procedure may be used in specified circumstances as a method for making minor revisions to property lines between two or more existing legal lots, and is not a procedure for subdividing existing property.
Generally speaking, this is a modification of a boundary line between adjacent legal parcels where the modification complies with statues wherein: 1) no new parcels are created, and no existing parcels are deleted; 2) no parcel is reduced below the minimum lot area required by the zoning in the particular County; 3) the proposed adjustment is exempt from the Subdivision Map Act, and no tentative map, final map or parcel map, shall be required as a condition to the approval of a lot line adjustment; and 4) the public rights-of-way are not altered without prior approval of the appropriate governmental body of benefit to the public.
A lot line adjustment may be used to create a lower amount of parcels, going from two to one for example, or retain the same number while altering their boundary lines. Regardless, no single lot can be created with lesser square footage than that allowed under the local zoning code. This process may not be used to increase the number of parcels, say from one to two.
California statute sets forth some of the necessities for lot line adjustments, but the appropriate locality will primarily control the ultimate guidelines via the zoning and applicable building codes. Planning departments will have applications available and describe the necessary fees involved. Please note that any fees submitted will not be refundable, even if your application is ultimately not approved. As mentioned, lot line adjustments are exempt from the California Subdivision Map Act discussed below.
The local planning department will request that either a civil engineer and/or land surveyor create a new legal description of each lot affected. The resulting parcels must conform to the zoning and building codes and any other additional requirements such as public utilities, infrastructure, and easements. Once you get through the process, a Certificate of Conformity will be issued, and is a necessity for several reasons. A Certificate of Compliance is basically to provide the property owner and subsequent purchasers with a record of the county's determination that a parcel was legally created. Such a certificate does not ensure that the property may be built upon, nor does it grant any rights to construction or other permits.
Lot Line Splits:
The above should not be confused with a lot split which is a separation of one Assessor's parcel into two or more, for Assessor's parcels needs, resulting in separate tax bills for each. Simply put, taking one large parcel of land and making several smaller ones. A lot line split is synonymous with subdividing, and requires the implementation of the Subdivision Map Act for five or more parcels created.
Subdivision Map Act:
The Subdivision Map Act requires one to obtain subdivision approval from the local government entity by anyone who offers to sell or lease any part of a "subdivision." The noncompliance of which may result in civil or criminal sanctions. As per California statute, a subdivision is defined as the division of any unit or units of improved or unimproved land, or any portion thereof, shown on the latest equalized county assessment roll as a unit or as contiguous units, for the purpose of sale, lease, or financing, whether immediate or future.
"The purpose of the Subdivision Map Act is to regulate and control design and improvement of subdivisions with proper consideration for their relation to adjoining areas; require subdividers to install streets and other improvements; prevent fraud and exploitation; and protect both the public and purchasers of subdivided lands." (Pratt v. Adams (1964) 229 Cal.App.2d 602.)
In short, the Subdivision Map Act codified is the approval process to subdivide land. Unless a specific exception or waiver applies, every subdivider must obtain city and/or county approval of a "map" depicting the proposed lots configuration and any exaction, (a requirement that specific improvements, payments, or other benefits to the public to help offset the impacts of the project)
Any subdivision which falls under the Subdivision Map Act must comply with the localities' general plan and the specific requirements outlined in the zoning code. Generally speaking, you will be required to file a final parcel or subdivision map. The Subdivision Map Act is required if the result will create five or more new parcels, condominium units, community apartment projects, or a stock cooperative, a tentative map is usually required first.
Upon reviewing a parcel/Plat map, if your parcel of land is represented by a dashed line, it was not created by a parcel map, tract map. In turn, it may have been created by a parcel map waiver or by deed, and it may, or may not, have already received a Certificate of Compliance. The only way to be sure whether or not a Certificate of Compliance has already been issued for such a parcel is to do a preliminary title search showing its existence, and other noted relevance to the subject property. The alternative would be to apply for your own Certificate of Compliance when applicable, which depending may or may not be granted depending on its creation.

According to the Texas Probate Code, stepchildren have few rights to inherit from their stepparents if they die without valid wills. A person who dies without a will is an intestate. An intestate's heirs have a right of succession as determined by the Texas Probate Code. A stepchild does not have a right to either of his stepparent's intestate property under the Texas Probate Code because the state does not consider him a legal relative. This is true even when a stepparent has a very close relationship or bond with his stepchild. It also applies to a child of a single parent who later marries and the new husband or wife raises his spouse's natural child.
The limited exception to the general rule that stepchildren cannot inherit from their stepparents absent a valid will is when a stepparent legally adopts his stepchild or promises to adopt the child but later does not. In the latter situation, if the stepchild can prove the existence of a valid oral or written contract promising to adopt him, he may inherit from his stepparent who died without a will.

RIVERSIDE, Calif. – (_URL_) When ancient Near Eastern civilizations fought their adversaries they used swords, spears and arrows. But how did they make these weapons, how much damage did they do, and how did kings supply their far-flung troops?
A new, multidimensional exhibit at the Western Science Center in Hemet, in partnership with La Sierra University, helps answer these and other questions through a display of ancient weapons and cultural artifacts, audio-visual media and a hands-on weapons replica table. Visitors experience the sights and sounds of ancient war, preparations for battle, learn about the rituals performed before going to war, and ways in which ancient wars impacted history.
The exhibit, "Weapons & War in the Iron Age," is comprised of artifacts from La Sierra's extensive collection, some excavated by La Sierra archaeologists from ancient sites in Jordan, and some from sites in Israel and Palestine. Most of the artifacts, including arrows, spears and swords, date from 1200BC to 600BC during the Iron Age of the Near East when iron became the prevalent material in making tools and weapons.
"Weapons & War in the Iron Age" will run through the fall. Western Science Center admission is adults $8; senior citizens and students $6.50; youth $6; children age four and under free; active-duty military free. The science center is located at 2345 Searl Parkway, Hemet. For additional information call _PHONE_, or visit _URL_. Hours are Tues. – Sun., 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. The Bank of Hemet and Eric and Gisela Gosch are sponsoring the exhibit.
The science center held an opening reception on June 21 attended by La Sierra archaeology professors, science center board directors and visitors.
Bill Marshall, a member of the center's Board of Directors and a retired superintendent of the San Jacinto Unified School District described the Weapons & War exhibit as "fascinating," particularly as it reveals the productivity of past civilizations. "I've always …believed you can learn from what people did in the past. It's wise to know where you came from and what people did prior to you," said Marshall.

1993: Institutions for the Earth
For day 26, Clay Morgan, Senior Acquisitions Editor, Environmental Studies, Political Science, Bioethics, looks back on Institutions for the Earth: Sources of Effective International Environmental Protection edited by Peter M. Haas, Robert O. Keohane, and Marc A. Levy:
One of the first books to study the effectiveness of existing institutions in protecting the environment, Institutions for the Earth remains a seminal and widely used text for courses and in the policy community. The book contributed greatly to social scientists' understanding of international institutions, and it has inspired a good deal of research and many books on international institutions in subsequent years, a number of which have been published by the MIT Press. Institutions for the Earth was one of the first books to study international environmental governance systematically, through a qualitative, comparative, focused approach to international environmental regimes. It developed a nuanced and eclectic theoretical framework for identifying three social mechanisms that contribute to international environmental cooperation: cooperative environment, capacity building, and concern. These approaches combine theoretical insights from institutional and constructivist analysis.

Placing Your Flymatic Insect KillerEvery application is unique, so each installation requires an individual assessment for fly killer siting, however there are some basic principles which should be followed:
- Use enough units to cover the area to be protected.
- Install the unit away from sources of light competition, such as windows, doors and high powered luminaries.
- Consider sources of heat and airflow.
- Do not install units directly above sensitive areas, such as food preparation areas.
- Glue board insect killers should be used for sensitive applications such as food preparation or production areas. They are also ideal for use 'front of house'.
- Consider access for installation and future servicing.
- Wherever possible, fly killers should be positioned at 90° to sources of natural light, such as windows, doors and skylights.
- The unit should be positioned in between potential entry points, so as to intercept flying insects before they reach sensitive areas.
- The unit should not be sited ether too high or too low in the area to be protected, with an optimum height of around 2m.

Glimpses of Creatures in Their Physical Worlds offers an eye-opening look into how the characteristics of the physical world drive the designs of animals and plants. These characteristics impose limits but also create remarkable and subtle opportunities for the functional biology of organisms. In particular, Steven Vogel examines the size and scale, and trade-offs among different physical processes. He pays attention to how the forms and activities of animals and plants reflect the materials available to nature, and he explores the unique constraints and possibilities provided by fluid flow, structural design, and environmental forces.
Each chapter of the book investigates a facet of the physical world, including the drag on small projectiles; the importance of diffusion and convection; the size-dependence of acceleration; the storage, conduction, and dissipation of heat; the relationship among pressure, flow, and choice in biological pumps; and how elongate structures tune their relative twistiness and bendiness. Vogel considers design-determining factors all too commonly ignored, and builds a bridge between the world described by physics books and the reality experienced by all creatures. Glimpses of Creatures in Their Physical Worlds contains a wealth of accessible information related to functional biology, and requires little more than a basic background in secondary-school science and mathematics.
Drawing examples from creatures of land, air, and water, the book demonstrates the many uses of biological diversity and how physical forces impact biological organisms.
"If what you desire in a readable science book is food for thought, Glimpses of Creatures in their Physical Worlds provides a feast. Biologists, engineers, and physicists--indeed, anyone with curiosity about the natural world--will revel in this smorgasbord of biomechanical ideas."--Mark Denny, American Scientist
"Such a book could be written only by someone with a rich knowledge of biomechanics, and Vogel, an emeritus professor of biology at Duke University, fits the bill. Considered one of the founders of the biomechanics community in the US, his distinguished research career has focused on organism-fluid interactions and such diverse topics as the behavior of leaves in the wind, passive ventilation of prairie-dog burrows, and airflow through the branching antennae of some moths. His breadth of knowledge is clearly reflected in the examples presented and the creative thought embodied in Glimpses of Creatures in Their Physical Worlds. Vogel uses the same approachable, entertaining writing style.... [T]his book is sure to serve as an inspiring entry into the field of biomechanics."--Stacey Combes, Physics Today
"It is a fine book and emphasizes important relationships too often neglected."--Choice
"As ever, Vogel is inspiring and his insights are remarkable."--Henry Bennet-Clark, BioScience
"This charismatic book is a fascinating read and Vogel is exceptionally good at presenting the material so that it is accessible to a general audience. The book presents new conceptions, data, and interpretations, but its most impressive aspect is the wide range of diverse examples collected in one place, displaying a lifetime's worth of accumulated knowledge and wisdom."--Amy S.

Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? ACE Certification Exam Math Refresher
Many of you may have seen the television show, "Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader?" and since my daughter is currently in the 5th grade, I thought it would be the perfect title for my blog post about math.
I have worked for 12 years with individuals preparing for ACE exams and a common fear many of them have is around the math. I sometimes ask myself why individuals are so fearful of math questions.
I personally have taken all four ACE exams and don't recall them being anything more than addition, subtraction, multiplication or division. To help put any irrational fears to rest, I've put together some of the common formulas, as well as some helpful math tips, to prepare you for the big day.
Age Predicted Maximum Heart Rate (MHR)
220 - Age = MHR
MHR x % intensity = Target Heart Rate (THR)
Example: 34 years old at 75% intensity
220 - 34 = 186 x 0.75 = 139.5 bpm
Karvonen Formula - Heart Rate Reserve (HRR)
220 - Age = MHR
MHR - Resting Heart Rate = HRR
(HRR x % intensity) + RHR = THR
Example: 34 year old, resting heart rate = 62 bpm, at 75% intensity
220 - 34 = 186 - 62 = 124 x 0.75 = 93 + 62 = 155 bpm
Body Mass Index (BMI)
Weight (kg) ÷ Height2 (m)
Weight conversion: weight in lb ÷ 2.2 = weight in kg
Height conversion: (height in inches x 2.54) ÷ 100 = height in meters
Example: Height = 5' 8" Weight = 196 lbs.
(5' x 12) + 8 = 68" 196 / 2.2 = 89 kg
(68" x 2.54) ÷ 100 = 1.73 m
89 kg ÷ (1.73 m x 1.73 m) = 29.7
Desired Body Weight (DBW)
DBW = LBW ÷ (1 - DBF%)
Step 1: 100 % - Fat % = Lean body %
Step 2: Body weight x Lean body % = LBW
Step 3: 100% - Desired fat % = Desired lean %
Step 4: LBW ÷ Desired lean % = DBW
Example: 200 lbs. individual with 30 % body fat.
How much will he/she weigh at 25 % body fat?
- 100 % - 30 % = 70 %
- 200 lbs. x 0.70 = 140 lbs. LBW
- 100 % - 25 % = 75 %
- 140 lbs. ÷ 0.75 = 187 DBW
Caloric (kcal) Values per Gram (g)
Fat = 9 kcal/g Alcohol = 7 kcal/g
Carbohydrates = 4 kcal/g Protein = 4 kcal/g
Multiplying by a percent
When multiplying by a percent, remember to move the decimal point 2 places to the left in your final answer.
Dividing by a percent
When dividing by a percent, move the decimal point over 2 places to the right before you start long division.
For example: Your client currently weighs 150 lbs. and is 30% body fat. You know her lean body weight is 105 lbs. and her desired percent body fat is 20%. To find her new ideal body weight at 20 % body fat, you must divide 105 lbs. by her new ideal lean body weight percent, which equals 80% or 0.80 in decimal form.
Finding the percent of a whole
When dividing a bigger number into a smaller number, you must add a decimal point and at least 2 zeros at the end of the smaller number. Be sure to extend the decimal point to your answer — writing your answer to the right of the decimal point since it will ultimately be a percent of the whole.

text: Misalignment is one of the key reasons for vibrations in most of the rotating system. The present study focuses on interactions among speed, load, and defect severity by investigating their effect on the system vibration. Response surface methodology (RSM) with root-mean-square (RMS) as a response factor is used to understand the influence of such interactions on the system performance. Experiments are planned using design of experiments, and analysis is carried out using analysis of variance (ANOVA). It is observed that speed has a remarkable effect on RMS value in both parallel and angular types of misalignment and affects the system performance. RSM results revealed that a change in load has less impact on vibration amplitude in case of horizontal and vertical directions, but there is a significant variation in RMS value in axial direction for both types of misalignment. A slight increase in the RMS value with an increase in defect severity is observed in the axial direction. These observations will help to understand the misalignment defect and its effect in a better way.

Parallax is a displacement or difference in the apparent position of an object viewed along two different lines of sight, and is measured by the angle or semi-angle of inclination between those two lines.
In simpler words, parallax is a visual effect you experience when moving. Objects closer to you appear to move past more quickly than objects that are farther away. For example, when riding in a car, if you look out the side window, a tree by the side of the road will move through your field of vision much faster than a barn in the distance behind it. This effect is utilized within software to convey a sense of depth.
The most recent incarnation of the Foursquare iPhone App employs a parallax effect in which information on the screen scrolls on a plane above the map.
This GIFF doesn't do it justice, of course, but a still image wouldn't convey it at all. The effect is purely aesthetic, but it feels good. It's an enjoyable microinteraction.

Byzantine Church of the Pantanassa
In Monastiraki Square. The architecture of the church continues in the tradition of Byzantine basilicas. It is a long narrow building divided internally into three aisles by two rows of columns. The church was the katholikon (central place of worship) of a convent, which housed a textile weaving center that supplied the adjascent bazaar with cloth. Archaeological excavationsin 1885 and the construction for the electric railway 10 years later, left the Pantanassa convent berift of its additional buildings and the katholikon was demoted to an ordinary church named Monastiraki (i.e. Little Monastery).

This purpose of this research study was to explore if and how art therapists utilize the theory of meaning making in trauma treatment. A secondary aim was to investigate art therapist's perspectives and application of the theory of posttraumatic growth. Semi-structured interviews were used to investigate how twelve art therapists conceptualized trauma treatment, meaning making and posttraumatic growth. Study participants were all female, located in a wide variety of mental health settings across the United States, with experience spanning four to 34 years. Major findings included that while nine out of twelve participants found meaning making was important to healing from trauma, many differed in both definition and application of the concept. The research study also produced mixed results in response to questions about posttrauamtic growth as a goal of therapy, yet illuminated the themes of identity reformulation, metaphor, and transformative art as potential avenues of meaning making. Findings also revealed that while the use of the phase models of trauma treatment in art therapy is growing, participants concurred over phase 1 and less so on phase 2 art therapy goals and procedures. Even fewer participants referenced but did not elaborate on phase 3 of trauma treatment. These findings suggest that currently meaning making as a therapeutic mechanism in art therapy trauma treatment is not being consistently applied or understood. The implication is that there is great opportunity to develop meaning making and growth oriented art therapy goals and procedures in both phase 2 and phase 3 of trauma treatment.

How do we prepare potassium cyanide from potassium ferrocyanide?
It is something which I am curious about, but cannot find the answer. I am studying inorganic chemistry but this reaction cannot be found.
Until about 1900, potassium cyanide was produced by melting dry potassium carbonate with dry potassium hexacyanidoferrate(II): $$\ce{K4[Fe(CN)6] + K2CO3 -> 6KCN + FeO + CO2}$$ However, the product contains potassium cyanate, which is approximately formed as follows: $$\ce{K4[Fe(CN)6] + K2CO3 -> 5KCN + KOCN + Fe + CO2}$$
In a small scale, dry potassium hexacyanidoferrate(II) is melted in a covered porcelain crucible. It is heated as long as nitrogen escapes. $$\ce{K4[Fe(CN)6] -> 4KCN + N2 +FeC2}$$ The iron carbide sinks to the bottom and the molten potassium cyanide can be poured off.
In addition to Loong's excellent answer, I'm going to shed some light on the last process i.e. the decomposition reaction of potassium ferrocyanide.
Actual reaction is this:
$$\ce{3K4[Fe(CN)6] ->[\Delta]12KCN + Fe3C + 5C + 3N2}$$
The thermal decomposition of potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) to produce potassium cyanide, iron carbide, carbon and nitrogen. This reaction takes place at a temperature near 650°C.(source)
As always nitrogen gas escapes, iron carbide and carbon sinks to the bottom and the molten potassium cyanide can be poured off.

Scientific Name: Egernia major
Despite their size, land mullets are shy, nervous creatures that are not often seen. Often the only indication of their presence is the rapid rustling of leaf litter and the sight of a disappearing black tail as they run for the nearest cover.
Although it has a fishy name, the land mullet is actually the largest member of the skink family of lizards. Large adults can reach 50cm or more in total length. The name comes from the smooth, shiny, black fish-like scales that cover the body. Juvenile land mullets tend to be dark brown and often have white or cream spots.
An inhabitant of the rainforest margins of coastal eastern Australia from Gosford, New South Wales north to southeastern Queensland. They will occasionally enter private gardens around their forest homes, particularly if they are well vegetated.
Juvenile land mullets eat mostly insects and other invertebrates. As they mature, more and more vegetable matter is consumed until, as adults, around 80% of the diet consists of fallen berries and fruits, new leaves and flowers.
Like their close relatives the Cunningham's skink, land mullets are live-bearers with females giving birth to 4-8 baby lizards in late summer some three months after mating. These juveniles will often stay around the parents for sometime forming an extended family group before heading off to find their own mates and territories.

Synthetic Green Agate
Please select one of the following shapes to see the prices
Lab Created Green Agate
Agate has been coming under the family of Quartz stone, as the quartz stone is widely available on the earth surface the stones which fall under the category are a member of quartz family but they exhibit different properties due to the formation and crystalline structures. Agate has also been known as "Chalcedony" derived from the word "Chalcedon". They were found around 3000 years ago from the Achates river popularly known as "Dirillo".
The creation of Lab created is done with the heating process where the stone is heated at a high temperature and often dyed due to the multi-colour availability in the agate. The process takes place in the chamber where dye colour is added into the stone and 800-900° Celsius temperature is given. The agate is then forwarded for further cleansing and use.
The use of green agate is done for industrial applications and formation of jewelry item. Its used in medical industries and as well as electronic equipment formation as they are hard enough to provide protection to the surfaces of materials.
The hardness of the lab created agate measures around 6.5-7 on the MOHS scale and that is why they are not so recommended in rings as they are brittle and too much exposure to rough surfaces may cause the stone scratches. Yet, they are used in beading and other jewelry products extensively. The lab created agate can be obtained easily and they exhibit similar properties like natural agates only with cheaper price. They are used in the variety of applications in industries as well.
Agates are naturally occurring but due to multi-colour speciality, they are often treated in the labs at a high temperature of 800-900° Celsius where it is dyed with colours as required. Brazil has been the location wherein labs they are treated. After the lab process, the colour is achieved by dye process. These stones are available in all shapes and sizes
Physical and Chemical Properties

Discrimination and equal rights
Do snide remarks on social media amount to discrimination?
Freedom of expression also applies to the Internet and social media. On Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram the same rules and regulations apply as in other parts of society. Basically, you can say or show (almost) anything, and you do not need anyone's permission to do so.
But beware: you may not discriminate against others on the internet or on social media either. A hateful remark about an entire population group or about someone's background, skin colour, or religion can be considered offensive and discriminatory. And everyone - you, I, we - also has the right not to be discriminated against.
Moreover, you should be aware that Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram function as magnifying glasses where freedom of speech is concerned. Anything you say or show there can spread rapidly - sometimes even across the world - and appear out of context.
Unfortunately, bullying (harassing someone) and discrimination (for example, insulting or threatening groups of people) are all too common on the internet and social media. They are forbidden and sometimes even punishable by law – people bully and discriminate anyway.
In many countries, you can file a report if you encounter discrimination on one of the social-media platforms, either with an anti-discrimination hotline or with the police. In the Netherlands, people have been convicted for posting hateful and discriminatory remarks on Twitter or Facebook.
Also very important: react! You too can make yourself heard if you think that someone is going too far. Raise your voice when you read or see something like that on someone's Facebook page or Instagram account.
Thanks to the freedom of speech, everyone is allowed to say a lot, but this freedom is something that should be handled with care.

I can think of some kids who would happily trade in their dunce caps for one of these, even if the thinking cap's inventor says it's not intended for homework help! AFP reports from Sydney:
Scientists in Australia say they are encouraged by initial results of a revolutionary "thinking cap" that aims to promote creativity by passing low levels of electricity through the brain.
The device, which consists of two conductors fastened to the head by a rubber strap, significantly boosted results in a simple arithmetic test, they said.
Three times as many people who wore the "thinking cap" were able to complete the test, compared to those who did not use the equipment. Sixty people took part in total.
Allan Snyder, director of the University of Sydney's Centre for the Mind, said the device worked by suppressing the left side of the brain, associated with knowledge, and stimulating the right side, linked to creativity.
"You wouldn't use this to study or to help your memory," Snyder told AFP. "You would use this if you wanted to look at a problem anew.
"If you wanted to look at the world, just briefly, with a child's view, if you wanted to look outside the box."
He said goal was to suppress mental templates gathered through life experiences to help users see problems and situations as they really appear, rather than through the prism of earlier knowledge…

Rethinking the Fall of Easter Island
New evidence points to an alternative explanation for a civilization's collapse
Easter Island has become a case study of human-induced environmental disaster, or "ecocide." The popular narrative, most famously recounted in Jared Diamond's book Collapse, depicts native inhabitants triggering the fall of their once-flourishing civilization by cutting down all of the island's trees. But recent archaeological and paleoenvironmental research point to a very different story. The island may not have been settled until around 1200 A.D., centuries later than previously thought, and it may have been a large rat population, not the human inhabitants, that caused widespread deforestation. This evidence sheds new light on a story that has long fascinated outsiders.

When a Replace task goes beyond the basics, it requires wildcards and specialized knowledge. Learn how to use specific wildcards to limit the number of characters in a search string.
Microsoft Word's Replace feature is a powerful tool that can take on just about any search task. The problem is that it is so powerful that users have trouble applying it beyond the basics. It's easy to replace a literal value with another, but once you throw in a few conditions, the task becomes more complex. For example, do you know how to limit the number of characters in a search string? Do you know how to replace one or more characters in a search string while leaving other characters alone? In this article, we'll tackle both problems in the same search task. Even if you're an expert, you might learn something new.
SEE: 69 Excel tips every user should master (TechRepublic)
I'm using Microsoft 365 on a Windows 10 64-bit system. You can work with your own data or follow along by using the downloadable demonstration.docx or.doc file. You can't use wildcards in an online document search. This article assumes you have basic Word skills.
How to use the Replace feature in Word
At first, the Find and Replace task we're going to explore sounds easy. Let's suppose that you have a Word document with multiple three-digit numbers starting with 3, and you want to change the 3 to a 5. For example, 352 becomes 552, 301 becomes 501, 399 becomes 599, and so on. As usual, there's an easy way, but that way doesn't limit the number of digits (or characters) in the search string. When that's the case, there's a more complex set of find and replace settings that will limit the task to only three-digit numbers. Now, let's get started!
The easy way to replace a character in Word
When replacing only characters at the beginning of the search string, you can use the Match Prefix option. This option matches words that begin with the Find setting; you can replace that character with another character without changing the remaining characters. Figure A shows a simple document with only a few numbers. Let's see what happens when we use this option in this document:
- Press Ctrl+H to open the Replace dialog.
- Click More and at the bottom click No Formatting. If that option is dimmed, you can skip this step.
- Click inside the Find What control and remove its contents if necessary, before entering 3.
- Click inside the Replace With control and remove its contents if necessary, before entering 5. (See Figure A.) It's important to note at this point that Replace remembers the last task. That's why it's important to remove formatting and previous search and replace strings before beginning.
- In the bottom pane, check the Match Prefix option.
- Click Replace All, click OK to confirm and then close the dialog.
The results are shown to the right in Figure A. As you can see, this task replaces all 3s with 5s when the 3 occurs at the beginning of the number. It doesn't consider the number of digits in the number.
This easy solution might work, but if you need to limit the change to numbers of a specific number of digits, you'll need a different replace task.
How to use wildcards to replace a character in Word
When the Match Prefix option isn't restrictive enough, you can still use Replace, but both settings will require wildcards. Let's restate the problem: We want to replace 3 with 5 when 3 occurs at the beginning of a three-digit number. You can accomplish this with the following settings:
- Find What: <3([0-9])([0-9])>
- Replace With: 512
Let's work through the same example and then discuss how it works. First, the steps:
- Press Ctrl+H to open the Replace dialog.
- Click More and at the bottom if necessary. (Remember to click No Formatting in the future; it isn't necessary this time.)
- Click inside the Find What control and remove its contents if necessary, before entering <3([0-9])([0-9])>.
- Click inside the Replace With control and remove its contents if necessary, before entering 512. (See Figure B.)
- In the bottom pane, uncheck the Match Prefix option and check the Use Wildcards option.
- Click Replace All, click OK to confirm and close the dialog.
As you can see in Figure C, the settings worked! The Find What setting matches all three-digit numbers that begin with 3. The Replace With setting replaces the 3 with 5. There are only two three-digit numbers that begin with 3 and after the task, they begin with a 5. None of the other numbers are changed.
At this point, it's time to learn how the settings work. First, let's break down the Find What setting:
- The < character denotes the beginning of the search string and > denotes the end.
- The first component <3 matches only those strings that begin with 3.
- The () characters represent a range. In this case, ([0-9]) will match any number in the second position. Similarly, the same component will find any number in the third position.
- Using > forces Word to stop searching beyond the third digit. <3 is the first digit, ([0-9]) is the second digit and ([0-9]) is the third digit.
Put it all together and you get a search string that specifies a three-digit number that begins with 3. Now let's review the Replace With setting:
- 5 is a literal character in the first position, and as such, replaces 3, the first literal character in the Find What setting.
- The character allows you to specify a range—remember, that's the wildcards enclosed in brackets ([ ]). In this case we have two ranges: ([0-9]) in both the second and third positions, but they are ranges 1 and 2, not 2 and 3—don't confuse the positions of the character within the string with the range. Remember, <3 isn't a range, it's a literal character.
This setting specifies a 5 as the replacement for the first digit, followed by the original digits in the matched number, which will only have three digits.
More tips on how to use the Replace feature in Word
It seems complex, but once you know what all those wildcards do, it's easy to understand. I'm not convinced that less complex settings won't work, but I've yet to discover them.
If you can't work out a one-step set, try two. Replace the character, in this case, the number 3, with a special character that you're not using in the document, such as the ^ sign or an underscore (_). Then run a second task to replace the special character with 5. It really isn't a lot more work, and if you're not all that knowledgeable with wildcards, it might be quicker than trying to work out a one-step wildcard solution.

A Mandaean connection? by Darren Worley
Here I present a short paper sent to me by Darren Worley, arguing for a Mandaean connection:
"I think that there is evidence of a Mandaean influence in the VM. I would suggest that the text might be Mandaic, a close-cousin of Syriac. This is the language of the Mandaeans.
The purpose of this posting is to describe in greater detail the similarities that I've found, and hopefully encourage others to find more, and test this hypothesis.
In brief, the Mandaeans follow an ancient Gnostic religion from Mesopotamia/Persia that continues to this day. Their origins are unclear; some sources suggest that they are descended from the Jewish tribes who remained in Babylon, and others suggest a link with the "Sabians of Harran".
Not wishing to repeat what's better explained elsewhere, these links give a good introduction to their faith and language.
At the very beginning of my VM research, purely from what I could determine from a visual inspection and from what I learnt from Prof. Baxs' paper, I wrote a list of what I could assume about the community that created the VM. It was something like this:
 - Belief in ritual cleansing/bathing
 - Use of herbs in medicine
 - Strong tradition in astrology, divination
 - Likely Persian/Turkish/Caucasus/Arabic influence
 - Absence of Christian iconography
 - Peculiar interest in nymphs/angels
 - Some catastrophic event occurred to the community resulting in their written dialect/language being lost (e.g 공무원 국어 다운로드. displacement, massacre, famine etc.)
When I started researching medieval Arabic alchemy and astrology I kept coming across repeated references to the Mandaeans (aka Sabians, or Mandeans) in the context of astrology and divination. In fact, these appeared so often that I started researching their history, customs and beliefs in more detail.
I was able to tick-off all my assumptions and identify additional similarities.
Textual Similarities/Evidence
1) In Mandaic, the constellation of Taurus is known as Taura [ref: Drower, Mandaean Writings, 1934]. In the VM f68r3 Taurus is also written as Taura [eva : doaro].
2) A peculiarity of Mandaean cosmology is that they believe all the stars rotate around the pole-star (Polaris). Mandaeans pray towards this star, and the dead are aligned towards it. Polaris is their most important celestial object.
The "Dictionary of Religions" vol3 (Forlong) p213, on Sabians, states : the pole star is the "central sun, the jewelled crown which stands before the door of Abathur", who is the "father of the door" music from your smartphone.
(In Mandaic, Baba = father and thur = door, or gate, probably from the Greek; thura; θύρα). I believe "thur" (Abathur) is synonymous with the pole-star, meaning gate, door or portal.
E.S.Drower in her paper (Mandaean Writings, 1934 p174) explains the use of an angelic or deity termination, -'il or -'iil, when a "son of Ur" is invoked. This is used when referring to a Deity in a cosmological context. Examples given by Drower are:
 - Taura – > Tauriil or Tauril
 - Libat (Venus) -> Zahril.
I would therefore expect "thur" (Abathur) to become "thur'iil" when used in a cosmological context.
I believe the text of on f57v at the 10o'clock position (EVA: dairol; th/o/u/r/a/l) signifies the "pole-star". "thoural" is quite close to the predicted ""thur'iil". (See my other discussion on the meaning of f57v) 컬러링 북 도안 다운로드.
The slight difference might be explained by (3).
3) Drower often bemoans the poor standard of manuscript copying by semi-literate priests. [ref: Drower, Mandaean Writings, 1934, p178; A Mandaean Book of Black Magic p3]. One other thing to consider is that different sections of the VM might have been copied from earlier manuscripts from different sources and possibly generations apart in age. The spelling is likely to be inconsistent and sometimes illegible.
4) Drower mentions the delimiting of passages of text using an abbreviation and a religious formula. [ref: Drower, Mandaean Writings, 1934 p172]. I think this might explain the frequent repetition of the "eva:dain" (th/u/ur) word in the VM. I think this relates to 'Uthra which occurs frequently in Mandaean prayers.(Drower, Canonical Prayerbook)
5) Borrowings from Persian, Arabic should be expected [Drower. Mandaeans of Iraq & Iran, p37 gives examples].
6) Several researchers have identified St.Johns Wort as the first herb in the VM. (There is some textual evidence, as well as visual evidence, to support this attribution). An early name by which Mandaeans were known was "St.John Christians" 생일초대장 다운로드. The Mandeans emphasized their links with the prophet, St. John, as it conferred special status with Islamic society and reduced persecution. This provides an explanation for why St. John's Wort [Hypericum perforatum] possibly appears first.
Historical Similarities/Evidence
1) One explanation for the disappearance of the written dialect/language is reported by (Drower: Mandeans of Iraq. p14). The end of one Mandaean magic roll records a horrible slaughter of the Mandaeans by the Arabs in the 14th century in Jazirah [….] This massacre left the community broken and with no priests for years, resulting in such an impression on the Mandaeans' collective memory that they mentioned it as one of the biggest disasters of the community even centuries later.
2) As has been described elsewhere, the figure shown in f57 is believed to show an astronomical instrument (al-Bayda). This was first described by Al-Buttani, a Sabain/Mandaean astronomer in 911.
Contextual Similarities/Evidence
1) Mandaeans have a tradition of ritual cleansing/bathing/purification especially for women during childbirth and when menstruating [Drower cimco edit. Mandaeans of Iraq and Iran. Chapter 7]
 - They practice baptism, and hold special reverence for flowing water. Mandaeans call themselves "subba" or "sabba" this comes from the Arabic word "to plunge in, submerge". [Drower, Meandeans of Iraq. p 16]
 - It has been noted on this website that the word for flowing water has been suggested/identified in the VM
 - Encyclopedia of Religions v3. Pg. 212 On Sabians reports that they "dip themselves into a river naked" cf. the naked figures in the VM
 - The cult-hut (Manda, or mandi) (Drower, Mandaeans of Iraq, p126) look similar to the huts, next of the female figures, on the inner ring f70r
2) Use of herbs in medicine
 - This is reported by Drower [Meandaeans of Iraq and Iran. p83.] cf. the herbal section of the VM
3) Strong tradition of astrology, divination
 - This is reported by Drower [Book of the Zodiac p.56 / Book of the Stars] cf. the astrological section of the VM
 - All Mandaeans have both a zodiacal name and a birth name.
 - The importance of astrology in Mandaean culture is attested by the large number of astrological/magic texts msi afterburner 다운로드. (Ref: Drower, Book of the Zodiac)
4) Arabic/Persian influence in VM
 - Mandaeans originated in Mesopotamia/Persia and most continued to do so until fairly recently cf. several words of an Arabic origin have been identified in the VM. (see Prof. Bax paper)
Contents and Structure of VM – Similarities/Evidence
1) The VM is collection of separately themed manuscripts cf. Drower reports in the Book of Zodiac (p.1) that most of the longer Mandaic manuscripts [are] a miscellany, a group of manuscripts of varying source and date. If the VM does follow the structure of a Mandaean manuscript then last page probably contains a colophon describing the genealogy of the priests who wrote it.
2) The mythological section of the VM (f75 onwards) is possibly an illustrated version of a Mandaean religious text. Likely candidates are Book of Esdras, or Book of Enoch sound effects. These are apocryphal books from the Old Testament. Parts of the canon of Mandaean religious books include the "Book of John (the Baptist)" and the "Book of Adam". Mandaeans also venerate biblical

Researchers have however not reached a consensus as to whether extractives, lignin and/or hemicelluloses, all with specific isotopic signatures, should be removed prior to dendroisotopic analysis. The topic of the first paper dealt with the comparison of Thuja occidentalis L. wood components and their suitability for subsequent dendroisotopic analyses. It was recommended that holocellulose be isolated since an alpha-cellulose yield may be too low for subsequent mass spectrometer analysis, especially when narrow rings are encountered and multiple stable isotope analyses are to be performed per sample. The second paper investigated the associations between the ring-width and δ13C chronologies with climate variables. The δ13C chronology spanned from 1650 to 2006 A.D. and incorporated dead and living T. occidentalis trees selected from two sites in central Manitoba, Canada. Compared to the δ13C values, ring width was more often associated with climate conditions in the year prior to ring formation. However, moisture stress was limiting for both radial growth and carbon assimilation. During the year of ring-formation, ring width was associated with spring and early summer conditions whereas, δ13C was more indicative of overall summer conditions. Nonetheless, each of ring width and δ13C contained individualistic climate information which could be used in tandem for long-term climate reconstruction.

There's a specific safety reason why restrooms have a light switch on the outside.
You've noticed that most bathrooms have an exterior light switch, and probably experienced the awful scenario of having the lights shut off by a passerby while you were still inside. Oops! Sorry dear. But why would civil engineers put the switch in such a place? You have to be grateful for that, its for your own safety. Let's learn more.
Related media: How Power Gets To Your Home: Crash Course Physics
Could You Be Electrocuted?
A functional light switch is certainly connected to a live wire. Most new buildings have professional electrical engineering, and chances of you being electrocuted are very rare. But in the case of aging electrical circuit systems and some (do-it-yourself) DIY electrical setups, the stakes are high. The metal screws on a light switch cover, especially, are liable to get you a jolt if a live wire happens to be lurking around.
Metals are used for electrical cables and wires because their excellent conductors; that is to say, when you send electrons through it, there is little resistance. Water — or, more specifically, the presence of other molecules in water — is an excellent conductor of electricity.
What we're trying to say is that, if you happen to take a shower, a shock from a light switch can pass quickly through your body, forming a circuit that can electrocute you in the process.
Switch Your Lights Out
Due to this reason, most civil engineering companies have stringent safety requirements for placing switches outside and away from plumbing. For instance, civil engineering in the United Kingdom, requirements forbid electric installations from placing light switches within 0.6 meters (2 feet) of a bathtub or shower.
The particular requirements of section 701 — the section of the module that states these requirements — applies to the electrical installations in locations containing a fixed bath (bath tub, birthing pool) or shower, and to the surrounding zones as described in the Wiring Regulations. The Wiring Regulations do not apply to emergency facilities, for example, emergency showers used in industrial areas or laboratories.
Smaller bathrooms that does not have enough wall space, these electrical installation measures are strictly enforced. The alternative, which many UK bathrooms use instead, is to use a ceiling pull-cord. That keeps wet hands a safe distance from live light fixtures.
In the United States, electrical installation requirements aren't so strict. You're more likely to find interior light switches in an American bathroom — or as Americans prefer restroom.
Safety First
Independent circuits designed to shut off when there's a change in current — like what might happen if electricity were to surge through your body — help keep you safe despite that. So if you were thinking those light switches were just some fancy building engineering or a flaw, you better have a second thought about it.
The next time you use a bathroom with an exterior switch, you can feel secure knowing that it's just there for your safety — even if it might leave you peeing in the dark.

People feel more satisfied after eating healthy foods like nuts and are less likely to overeat.
Eat a Variety of Snacks to Stay Satisfied
When it comes to choosing foods to snack on, many of us find ourselves stuck in a rut, eating the same foods day after day. However, those looking to manage their weight would do well to mix it up a little more, as research suggests that habitual snacking on the same foods can lead to a decrease in our sense of satisfaction, potentially leading to overeating.
Do we want what we eat?
The study, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, included 118 healthy adults who were divided into four groups: three groups received equal calorie snacks—either hazelnuts, milk chocolate, or potato chips—to eat daily for 12 weeks, while the fourth group, as the control group, received no snacks.
The type of satisfaction the researchers were trying to measure is called sensory-specific satiety, which is unrelated to fullness, but rather has to do with the feeling that a desire for some pleasurable sensation has been fulfilled. To measure this, participants answered questions designed to evaluate their liking, desire, and sense of satisfaction before and after tasting a variety of snack foods at sessions at the beginning and end of the trial. The three test groups also answered similar questions before and after snacking on their assigned foods daily during the trial.
Tired of eating the same food
People in all of the snack groups reported liking their assigned snack foods less at the end of the study. Sensory-specific satiety after eating the assigned snack foods, but not other snack foods, diminished in the three test groups and not in the control group.
People in the chocolate group experienced the greatest drop in liking and sensory-specific satiety for their snack food, and people in the hazelnut group experienced the least change.
The desire to eat the snack food did not diminish in any of the snack groups, even though liking and satisfaction declined. In fact, when given the chance to eat their snack food freely, people in all groups ate more after the 12-week trial than they did before.
"Collectively, these results showed that repeated consumption of a food for 12 weeks led to monotony, in which the liking of the eaten food declined significantly whereas the liking for the uneaten foods remained unchanged," the study's authors said. "This effect was more pronounced in the chocolate group, followed by the potato chip and hazelnut groups."
Satisfy your desire with a variety of nutritious snacks
Scientists are still learning about the ways that liking, desire, and satisfaction associated with specific foods can affect our food choices and our tendency to overeat. Information from this and other studies may lead to a better understanding of weight gain and obesity.
In the meantime, the evidence suggests that we can make choices that increase the chance that we'll feel satisfied and not overeat:
Vary your snack foods. This could help you avoid the monotony described in this study and lead to higher satisfaction and lower consumption.
Choose nutritious foods. Several studies have found that people feel more satisfied after eating healthy foods like nuts and are less likely to overeat them. The opposite has been found with non-nutritious junk food.
Eat mindfully. This means giving our full attention to the experience of eating. Try not to eat while doing other activities, and when you do sit down for your food, focus on the tastes and textures of your food, and notice the emotions and sensations eating elicits. Mindful eating helps prevent overeating and binge eating.

About Seed Beads
Seed beads, also known as rocailles, are versatile beads used in embroidery, jewelry stringing, and all kinds of bead weaving applications. The smallest seed beads can go under trade names such as Antiques or Delicas, or they can be simply designated by size, where the bigger the number the smaller the bead. For example, 11 0 seed beads are very small (2mm), but 6 0 seed beads are bigger (4mm).
Although simple bead stringing projects are always a possibility, weaving with seed beads -- which can be done with a loom or off-loom -- is getting more and more popular. Bead weaving is nothing new, it has been practiced by Native Americans for centuries, and enjoyed a surge of popularity among Victorian women.
A common weaving technique for seed beads is peyote stitch. See our videos referenced above for demonstrations of this and other common bead weaving styles. Weaving involves the use of needles, so we've included the most appropriate beading needles above as well. Seed beads can also be used in a variety of sewing, threading, or wire projects.
Fireline thread is very good for bead weaving. It is pre-waxed, doesn't fray, and has very strong tensile strength. However, Nymo thread is good for loomwork because it's very thin, which is an advantage when your project requires that the needle pass through the same bead hole many times. Dandyline from Beadalon is also a nice thread that is strong, waterproof, and does not fray.
Basically, seed beads can be used in any design, whether it's loom weaving, threading, or embroidery, whenever you want to add small points of color or intricate detail. Other ideas include a bead-encrusted picture frame, monogrammed bags, and beaded zipper pulls. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination!

The IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic section "9.2 Recommended correctly rounded functions" lists functions that are recommended (but not required) by a language standard to provide, among them an exp2 function as a particular example.
If a language provides exp2, does the standard require it to be correctly rounded?
As a particular example, I took the exp2 function from the openlibm library, and found it to be correctly rounded in 99.96% of cases. However, in the rest of the cases (e.g., 37 cases from 100,000), it produced an answer that was off by 1 ulp. It's obviously very accurate, but it nevertheless was not correctly rounded in those 37 cases. Does this mean that the exp2 function in openlibm is not IEEE-754 compliant?
 - 4
 $\begingroup$ So it's the difference between "(recommended correctly rounded) functions" and "recommended (correctly rounded functions)", right? $\endgroup$ – Kirill Nov 17 '17 at 19:02
 - $\begingroup$ _USER_ yes, exactly. $\endgroup$ – Ondřej Čertík Nov 18 '17 at 20:16
According to [1]: "However, the IEEE-754 standard specifies nothing for elementary functions" and "Indeed, the mathematical libraries (libm) provided by operating systems do not guarantee correct rounding.". As such, according to [1], the answer is that the IEEE-754 standard does not require the exp2 function to be correctly rounded, it only recommends it.

Shadow Technique Improves Measurement of Micro Holes
June 2, 2005
Contact: Gail Porter
Sometimes seeing a shadow can be as good or better than seeing the real thing. A new measurement method* developed by researchers working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is a case in point. The method uses the shadow cast by a small glass probe to infer the dimensions of tiny, microscale holes or other micrometer-sized components. The technique may provide an improved quality control method for measuring the interior dimensions of fuel nozzles, fiber optic connectors, biomedical stents, ink jet cartridges and other precision-engineered products.
Designed to be implemented with the type of coordinate measuring machine (CMM) routinely used in precision manufacturing settings, the method uses a flexible glass fiber with a microsphere attached on one end. The glass probe is attached to the CMM's positioning system, inserted into the part to be measured, and systematically touched to the part's interior walls in multiple locations. A light-emitting diode is used to illuminate the glass fiber. While the microsphere inside the part is not visible, the shadow of the attached fiber—with a bright band of light at its center—shows the amount of deflection in the probe each time the part's interior is touched. A camera records the shadow positions. Based on prior calibration of the force required to bend the probe a specific distance, the part's dimensions can be determined with an uncertainty of about 35 nanometers (nm). The method can be used for holes as small as 100 micrometers in diameter.
"Our probe has a much smaller measurement uncertainty than other available methods and it is very cost effective to make," says Bala Muralikrishnan, a NIST guest researcher from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
The thin, glass fiber is about 20 millimeters long and 50 micrometers in diameter, making it especially useful for measuring relatively deep holes not easily measured with other methods. Replacement probes cost about $100 compared to about $1,000 for those manufactured using silicon micromachining techniques.

Her Parents Abandoned Her At The Age Of 3, But Wild Dogs Raised Her As Their Own Feral Child
Updated July 31, 2019 161.1k views13 items
Stories of children raised by animals are popular in folklore and literature - The Jungle Book for one - but there are more documented cases of this happening in reality then you'd think. While few and far between, there have been incidents when orphaned or abandoned children were taken in by animals. Called feral children, such kids often fail to develop language and basic social skills. One such case involved a Ukranian child named Oxana Malaya. Neglected by alcoholic parents at age three, Malaya took refuge with a wild dog pack.
After she was discovered - five years later - the world was captivated by the story of the girl raised by wild dogs. Malaya was the subject of many documentaries and articles over the years. She was dubbed the "Dog Girl" - a term she really doesn't prefer, who would? - and while her reintroduction into society has been difficult, she has successfully transitioned. Here's everything there is to know about how one girl survived living in the wild among animals.
 - After Five Years With Her Dog Pack, The Animals Tried To Protect Her From Authorities
 Oxana Malaya was discovered in Ukraine in 1994. According to accounts, a neighbor noticed there was a little girl living in the woods and contacted authorities. When Malaya was discovered, she was living with a pack of wild dogs.
 The dogs instinctively protected Malaya from the officers, having accepted her into their pack.They had to be bribed with treats so authorities could take Malaya. She was believed to have been living with the dogs for roughly five years.
 - Her Adoption By The Dogs Was Due To Horribly Negligent Parents
 While the details remain somewhat unclear, Malaya likely ended up in the care of the dog pack due to neglect on behalf of her negligent, alcoholic parents. When she was three, according to the story, her parents left her outside one night. Malaya crawled into a nearby hovel where wild dogs congregated.
 Her parents never tried to find her, so she ended up being adopted by the pack and forgetting basic language and social skills.
 - It Was Difficult For Her To Shed Her Dog-Like Tendencies
 Even years after being found, at 23, Malaya still displayed tendencies similar to wild dogs. She would shake her head when wet to get off the water. She would hide things given to her, much like a dog hides food or supplies. She also walked in a somewhat dog-like fashion and would still occasionally walk on all fours like a dog.
 - Her Intelligence Was High Considering Her Separation From Society
 When child psychologist Lyn Fry met with Malaya as part of a documentary, she was actually surprised with Malaya's intelligence and overall development. Malaya's drawing skills matched that of a five or six-year-old and she had a sophisticated enough grasp of language to understand prepositions.
 She was also able to recognize herself in the mirror without trouble. Most feral children are much farther behind in terms of development.

This article discusses the general principles, optical systems, and emission sources of optical emission spectroscopy for elemental analysis. Changes in the energy of the valence or outer shell electrons result in the atomic lines used in emission spectroscopy. Each possible combination of electron configurations produces a spectroscopic term that describes the state of the atom. Atomic emission is analytically useful only to the extent that the emission from one atomic species can be measured and its intensity recorded independent of emission from other sources. Emission sources are often designed to minimize molecular emission. Each of the four types of emission sources; arcs, high-voltage sparks, glow discharges, and flames; has a set of physical characteristics with accompanying analytical assets and liabilities. The article also discusses the applications of each type of emission source.

Muwashshaḥ, (Arabic: "ode"), an Arabic poetic genre in strophic form developed in Muslim Spain in the 11th and 12th centuries. From the 12th century onward, its use spread to North Africa and the Muslim Middle East.
The muwashshaḥ is written in Classical Arabic, and its subjects are those of Classical Arabic poetry—love, wine, court figures. It sharply differs in form, however, from classical poetry, in which each verse is divided into two metric halves and a single rhyme recurs at the end of each verse. The muwashshaḥ is usually divided into five strophes, or stanzas, each numbering four, five, or six lines. A master rhyme appears at the beginning of the poem and at the end of the strophes, somewhat like a refrain; it is interrupted by subordinate rhymes. A possible scheme is ABcdcdABefefABghghABijijABklklAB. The last AB, called kharjah, or markaz, is usually written in vernacular Arabic or in the Spanish Mozarabic dialect; it is normally rendered in the voice of a girl and expresses her longing for her absent lover. Such verses make it probable that the muwashshaḥ was influenced by some kind of European Romance oral poetry or song. Jewish poets of Spain also wrote muwashshaḥs in Hebrew, with kharjahs in Arabic and Spanish.

On the Origins of Virtue by Matt Ridley, Viking, ISBN _PHONE_ Reviewed by Laurence Hurst
NATURE is red in tooth and claw. It is hard to see how things could be otherwise, given that it is the fittest who survive. So understanding how natural selection can lead to cooperation, provides evolutionary biology with one of its greatest challenges. Such an understanding is also, Matt Ridley argues in Origins of Virtue, the key to conserving the world's fisheries.
The problem is that cheats can prosper. Fishermen who take more than their quota get something for nothing. But whereas cooperation is rare in animal groups, humans, Ridley notes, are curiously disposed towards it (some fishermen excepted). Humans, Ridley argues, evolved in small groups where reciprocal trading was important, and trust between trading parties a crucial concern.
The thesis is attractive and well supported with evidence drawn from many disciplines....

If you want the names that have 123 anywhere in them:
move *123*.* c:\newfolder
If you want the 123 to always be the 4th, 5th, and 6th characters:
move???123*.* c:\newfolder
If you want only.pdf files with 123 (either of the above matches):
move *123*.pdf c:\newfolder
Works either from a batch file or directly from the command prompt.
The? matches a single character, the * matches one or more. These are called wildcard operators or simply wildcards.
To see how the wildcard operators work, open a command ("DOS") window in the folder you want to use, and try (dir is for a directory listing, and can't hurt anything to experiment with):
dir *.*
dir *123*
dir *123*.pdf
dir???123*.pdf

how do i look through all the files in a folder? – jardane Aug 8 '12 at 1:27
The examples I gave you do exactly that - the wildcard gives you multiple (one or more) matches. See my last sentence, and see the dir command in the command-line reference. – Ken White Aug 8 '12 at 1:30

No need for a batch file - the move command with a wildcard will do that itself:
