What is the origin of scut in scut work?
According to Merriam-Webster,
scut work: routine and often menial labor
Probably from medical argot, scut meaning 'junior intern'
First known use: circa 1962
Usage example:
... women who generally feel that they are second-class citizens in the medical profession -- unappreciated and directed by (mostly male) doctors to perform largely scut work.
This ngram shows that scut work was not used before 1960 when it took hold as medical jargon. It supports the idea that the term was not already in general use and subsequently popularized in hospitals, rather that it originated there.
Scut work
This returns us to the medical coinage. Could it be related to meaning (2) in the OED?
1. the short tail of a hare, rabbit, or deer.
2. (inf. chiefly Irish) a person perceived as foolish, contemptible, or objectionable.
There is another theory that it is derived from Oxford University servants called scouts, but I consider this unlikely given the US origin of scut work.

Der... I don't think it's likely to derive from anything other than OED:2, which seems about as transparent as any word usage can be. Possibly that definition itself came from association of rabbits with simpletons (rabbits are dumb), or with lowly peasants (who would eat more rabbit than other meat). – FumbleFingers Jul 28 '11 at 14:23

In the Wiktionary scutwork entry, one of the references, Medical meanings: a glossary of word origins, suggests either scuttle, or OE scitan (excrement) as possible origins of the scut in scutwork. I think scitan is plausible; note from the etymology of shit:
Noun use for "obnoxious person" is since at least 1508
Wiktionary also suggests for scut as "contemptible person" that the etymology may be from the obsolete sense of scout, which Etymonline explains:
"to reject with scorn," c.1600, of Scandinavian origin (cf. O.N. skuta, skute "taunt"), probably from a source related to shout.
I think you're probably right that meaning (2) of scut is more closely related to scutwork, but note that calling someone contemptible doesn't have to be unrelated to meaning (1) as in the quotations in Wiktionary, or, for example, this 1907 story:
"Don't understand me?" roared the farmer. "What have you done to my darter, you scut, sitting there preening of yersel, like a silly peacock in the sun?"
The angry man approached the bed swiftly, and, seizing Aubrey's pyjama-clad shoulder in a massive fist, thrust his hairy face within an inch of his victim's nose.
"What have you been doin' to my lass?" he roared again. "Now d'yew onderstand me?"
"W-what has she been telling you?" Aubrey was horribly frightened.
"Summat that made me sware you shouldn't leave this house till you'm man and wife all raight and praper accordin' to law."

I'm quite impressed with wiktionary's entry actually. I like the quotations. Here are two more, from Ulysses: "God speed you, scut!" and "Mean bloody scut." – z7sg Ѫ Jul 28 '11 at 21:15
This is not a definitive answer, because all the sources I checked say the origin is not known. But I suspect it probably comes from scuttle, because doing the dishes is the archetypal form of "scut" work, and as Etymonline shows us:
scuttle (n.) "bucket," O.E. scutel "dish, platter," from L. scutella "serving platter," dim. of scutra "flat tray, dish," perhaps related to scutum "shield" (see hide (n.1)). A common Gmc. borrowing from Latin (cf. O.N. skutill, M.Du. schotel, O.H.G. scuzzila, Ger. Schüssel). Meaning "basket for sifting grain" is attested from mid-14c.; sense of "bucket for holding coal" first recorded 1849.
share|improve this answer
I think the ngram I've posted in the question goes against this theory because scut work only really exists from 1960 onwards. – z7sg Ѫ Jul 28 '11 at 20:32
+1 I strongly suspect it came from coal scuttle. – Brock Adams Mar 17 '13 at 10:07
"Scut work" was in use at least as early as 1950. From The Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine, Volume 22:
... menial tasks commonly known as the "scut work."
Given the general manners of the time, it seems unlikely that this would be used too pejoratively.
James Joyce's, Finnegans Wake (1939) also refers to a character as a "scutfrank" -- which has been interpreted to mean someone who does menial tasks.

Is this a definition from a dictionary? Why else did you use inverted commas? As it is, you haven't provided an answer for its origins. – Mari-Lou A Aug 23 '13 at 22:27
_USER_-LouA It looks as if the quote marks were added by the editor. The author also suggested the (alleged) origin by capitalising the initial letters of each word. While the author has provided no substantiation for this alleged origin, I think your last 2 sentences should be aimed at the editor! – TrevorD Aug 23 '13 at 23:57

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

Objective: To report our experience with magnetic resonance urography (MRU) in pregnant women suspected of having obstructing upper tract calculi. The diagnosis of an upper tract calculus in the pregnant woman can be challenging. Recent evidence suggests that MRU can be used to effectively evaluate renal colic. Methods: From 2008-2011, 9 pregnant women were referred for evaluation of suspected renal colic caused by an obstructing upper tract stone. All patients underwent MRU with a half Fourier single-shot turbo spin-echo (HASTE) protocol. Medical records and imaging studies were reviewed for demographic and clinical data as well as outcome measures. Results: The mean age of the subjects was 25 years (range 20-34); average gestational age of the fetus was 23 weeks (range 9-36). In all cases, a renal ultrasound was the initial imaging study obtained, with nondiagnostic findings. HASTE MRU detected 4 ureteral stones and 4 cases of physiological hydronephrosis of pregnancy. In one case, interpretation of the MRU was limited as a result of patient motion. Of the patients with obstructing stones, 1 required endourologic management during her pregnancy and 3 were followed conservatively. No adverse events related to MRU occurred. Conclusion: HASTE MRU is an informative imaging study for pregnant women with suspected upper tract stone disease. Information gathered from this study augments that gained from alternative modalities, and aids in medical decision-making. The lack of ionizing radiation exposure, coupled with the capture of detailed anatomic imaging, makes HASTE MRU a particularly useful study in this setting.

Are rhumb lines ever used by an FMS as leg paths for RNP/RNAV? If so, what arinc 424 leg type would use them?
No. The FMS does not use rhumb lines.
All RNP/RNAV flight path legs are geodesics. The only exceptions are RF legs (a constant radius circular path about a turn center) and hold legs (a closed racetrack pattern).
To quote RTCA DO-236C, Minimum Aviation System Performance Standards: Required Navigation Performance for Area Navigation:
RNP Routes and user-preferred trajectories are assumed to use a series of fixes. The desired path is defined by a series of geodesic tracks joining successive fixes.
It also includes the following definition:
A line of shortest distance between any two points on a mathematically defined surface. A geodesic line is a line of double curvature and usually lies between the two normal section lines which the two points determine. If the two terminal points are nearly in the same latitude, the geodesic line may cross one of the normal section lines. It should be noted that, except along the equator and along the meridians, the geodesic line is not a plane curve and cannot be sighted over directly.

Location: Northern Greece, Macedonia
The vardar is a cold northwesterly wind blowing from the mountains down to the valleys of Macedonia. A type of ravine wind, enhanced by a channelling effect while blowing down through the Moravia-Vardar gap, bringing cold conditions from the north to the Thessaloniki area of Greece. Most frequent during winter, it is blowing in the rear of a depression when atmospheric pressure over eastern Europe is higher than over the Aegean Sea. In general, the vardar is similar to the mistral wind.
A strong vardar event occured on January 12 and 13, 2003. Compare the significant drop in maximum temperature by 17°C (from 19C down to 2C) with the darstic jump in prevailing wind direction from easterly to northerly and northwesterly, and the wind speed and peak gusts during this time period recorded at Thessaloniki.

Detailed scintillation properties of Sc2O3, especially γ-ray response, are not well studied because of low density and low effective atomic number of this compound. They are reported in this paper. Sc2O3 single crystals grown by the micro-pulling-down method and Sc2O3 translucent ceramics produced by the spark plasma sintering are analyzed. Optical, luminescence, and scintillation properties of these singleand poly-crystalline solids are discussed and compared based on examination of their optical transmittance, radio-luminescence spectra, light yields under γ-ray excitation, non-proportionality, energy resolution, and scintillation decay profiles. Spectrally corrected light yields of the Sc2O3 single crystals and Sc2O3 ceramics were approximately 7,700 and 19,200 photons/MeV, respectively.

How to Install a Hanging Mirror on a Door
Installing a hanging mirror on a door is a little different from hanging one on a wall. Hollow doors are not strong or dense enough to hold mounting screws, but you can support the mirror from the top of the door. With solid doors, a more traditional approach with screws should hold an average mirror. Extremely heavy mirrors are not suitable for hanging on a door, as the weight can cause the door to sag on its hinges.
Holllow Door Installation
 1. Use Over the Door Mirror Hooks
 2. Slip an over-the-door hanging hook over the top edge of the door, advises Mirror Coop.
 3. Attach the Wire to the Hook
 4. Hang the wire on the back of the mirror over the hook on the door. If the back of the mirror has a pair of D rings and no wire, string picture hanging wire between the two rings and twist the ends of the wire together until the wire is taut and secure.
 5. Stick the Bumper to the Door
 6. Peel the backing off a felt or rubber bumper and stick it to the door behind the mirror, toward the bottom edge of the mirror. It should be high enough behind the mirror not to show, but low enough to protect the mirror from bouncing against the door.
Solid Door Installation
 1. Position the Mirror
 2. Hold the mirror against the door where you want it to hang, with the back side facing out.
 3. Mark the Position
 4. Make a pencil mark on the door at the top of the mirror and at the left and right sides of the mirror.
 5. Take Your Measurements
 6. Measure the mirror from the top edge down to one D ring on the back. If the D rings have picture hanging wire strung between them, remove it.
 7. Measure down from the mark you made on the door for the top of the mirror to the location of the D ring, using the measurement you took in Step 3. Mark the door again at that location.
 8. Use a Level
 9. Place a 4-foot level horizontally against the door, aligning the upper edge of the level with the pencil mark you made for the D ring. Adjust the level, centering the bubble. OOK by Hillman recommends tracing the edge of the level onto the door with a pencil.
 10. Place the level vertically on the door and align the edge with the pencil mark you made for the left side of the mirror. Adjust the level until the bubble is centered, denoting that the line is plumb or vertically straight. Trace the edge of the level with a pencil until it intersects the level horizontal line. Repeat to make a vertical line on the right side.
 11. Take Your Second Set of Measurements
 12. Measure the mirror from the left side straight across to the center of the closest D ring. This measurement denotes where the left mounting screw goes.
 13. Measure across the horizontal line from the spot where the left vertical line intersects it, and mark the spot where the left mounting screw goes, using the measurement you took in Step 8. Repeat for the mounting screw on the right-hand side.
 14. Drill Pilot Holes
 15. Drill pilot holes into the door to a depth of approximately 3/4 inch at the mounting screw marks. Use a power drill and a drill bit that is slightly smaller than the diameter of the screw shank.
 16. Install Wood Screws
 17. Insert a 1-inch, coarse-thread wood screw into the door at each pilot hole using a Phillips head screwdriver. Leave the screw head raised up from the surface of the door approximately 1/8 inch.
 18. Finish Installing the Mirror
 19. Hang mirror on door by lowering the mirror onto the screws until the D rings catch the screws.
 20. Things You Will Need
 - Over-the-door-style hanging hook or wreath hanger
 - Picture-hanging wire (optional)
 - Adhesive-backed felt or silicone bumpers
 - Pencil
 - Measuring tape
 - 4-foot level
 - Power drill
 - Small-diameter drill bit set
 - 1-inch coarse-thread wood screws
 - Phillips head screwdriver
 Some mirrors have hanging mechanisms such as ribbons or cords that are only decorative and not intended to bear the weight of the mirror. Follow the manufacturer's mounting instructions, and use special hardware when recommended or provided.


the geocentric watch concept is the creation of designer geoffry cooper. the idea for this exposed wristwatch is inspired by the motion of the planets orbiting around the sun. the watch face is composed of two rings which are always in motion. the time is told by seeing where the two inner rings are located in respect to the outside ring. the inner most ring is used to represent seconds while the middle ring signifies minutes. the watch has a simple white plastic band that highlights the exposed inner workings of the watch on the face.

Fight Song
In U.S. and Canadian sports, a fight song is a song associated with a team. In both professional and amateur sports, fight songs are a popular way for fans to cheer for their team, and are also laden with history; in singing a fight song, fans feel part of a large, time-honored tradition.[1] Although the term "fight song" is primarily used in the United States, the use of fight songs is commonplace around the world, but they may also be referred to as team anthems, team songs or games songs in other countries, even such as Australia, Mexico and New Zealand. Fight songs differ from stadium anthems, used for similar purposes, in that they are usually written specifically for the purposes of the team, whereas stadium anthems are not.
Hundreds of colleges have fight songs, some of which are over a century old. The oldest collegiate fight song in the United States is Boston College's "For Boston", composed by T.J. Hurley in 1885.[2]
One of the oldest games songs in Australia is Melbourne Grammar's 'Play Together, Dark Blue Twenty', which is sung to the tune of 'The March of the Men of Harlech'.[3][4] It was composed by Ambrose John Wilson who was principal of the school from _PHONE_.[5] This is not to be confused with the school hymn 'Ora et Labora' which is now sung to the tune of 'Jerusalem'.[6]

 3. ^ The Melbourne Grammar games song comprises verses from the school's three main sports at the time, Australian rules football, cricket and rowing. For example the Australian rules verse is:
 'Play together, Dark Blue Twenty,
 Long and little marks in plenty;
 Get your kick, let none prevent ye,
 Make the leather roll.
 Mark your men, keen effort straining,
 On the ball and show your training;
 Still though short the time remaining,
 Get another goal.'
 The chorus between each verse is:
 'None our ranks shall sunder.
 Who will shirk or blunder?
 If all are true
 To our Dark Blue,
 Our foemen must go under.
 Honour ye the old School's story,
 Those who played and won before ye,
 Bear the Dark Blue flag to glory,
 Grammar to the fore.'
 The cricket verse:
 Bat with patience unremitting,
 Yorker, shooter, break outwitting,
 All the loose ones freely hitting,
 That's the game to play.
 Skill the bat and ball in wielding,
 Smartness, judgement in the fielding,
 Iron nerve and pluck unyielding,
 Scarce can lose the day.
 The rowing verse:
 Row the race, boys swing together,
 Sinews tough as cords of leather,
 Strong, yet light upon the feather,
 Lift her, make her go!
 Get the catch at the beginning,
 Churn the tide in eddies spinning,
 Now a spurt, you gain! you're winning!
 Melbourne Grammar, row!
 A fourth verse with its own chorus was added in the early 20th century with imperial connotations:
 'Some, in strife of sterner omen,
 Faced the Empire's stubborn foemen;
 Fought, as erst their sires - her yeomen;
 Won the deathless name.
 Praise ye these who stood for Britain,
 These by foreign marksmen smitten;
 Praise them, for their names are written
 High in storied fame.
 None their ranks could sunder;
 Who could shirk or blunder?
 So stood they true
 To the old Dark Blue,
 And all their foes went under.
 Honour ye the old School's story,
 Heroes who - her sons before ye -
 Died or lived, but fought for glory,
 Honoured evermore.'
 While it is not officially discontinued, this addition is no longer sung.

Hen shoots farmer in Monaghan
Published: 7 March 1914
A farmer has died following a bizarre shooting incident at a farmhouse between Ballybay and Castleblaney, Co. Monaghan.
The farmer, Laurence Connolly, was taking out his gun to shoot magpies that had been taking eggs from the hen roosts when a hen ran across him. The gun struck the hen and discharged itself into the body of Mr. Connolly. He died several hours later.
Mr. Connolly had amassed considerable wealth in his youth in America. He married following his return to Ireland but his new wife died suddenly shortly afterwards.
He subsequently lived with his brother and it was at their farm that the incident occurred.

Learn How To Cook Oha Soup In Easy Steps
Cooking Oha soup is fun and easy. Learn the steps here!
Titilayo Ilori
Oha soup is a traditional dish mostly eaten by the Igbos. The method of cooking this soup is similar to that of cooking Bitterleaf soup. It is one of the most special delicacies there are in Nigeria because of the Oha leaves used to prepare it.
Ingredients needed to prepare Oha soup include:
1. Vegetables.
2. Oha leaves.
3. Cocoyam.
4. Palm oil.
6. Assorted beef.
7. Shaki (cow tripe).
8. Dry fish, stock fish, crayfish.
9. Chili pepper.
10. Seasoning cube (s).
Method of cooking:
1. Grind your crayfish and pepper
Make sure you grind your crayfish and pepper.
2. Wash your cocoyam
Wash the body of the cocoyam to get rid of sand, and boil it till it is soft. When it is cooked, peel the skin and pound using a mortar and pestle till it is smooth.
3. Cut your Oha leaves
After you have separated each leaf from its stick, use your hand to cut it into pieces. If you cut your leaves with a knife, it will make the soup dark in colour
4. Boil your stock
Boil your meat, shaki, cow tripe, stock fish and dry fish. Make sure they are all soft before moving on to the next step.
5. Add Maggi, pepper and ground crayfish
Add maggi cubes, pepper and ground crayfish to the boiling stock and let it cook for 10 minutes.
6. Add your cocoyam paste
Add your cocoyam paste to your mixture and add palm oil. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 15 minutes. Once the cocoyam paste is dissolved and you notice the soup is too thick, pour some water.
7. Add your Oha leaves
Your next step is to add your Oha leaves and leave to cook for another five minutes.
8. Add some salt to taste
Remember to add some salt to taste at this point and leave your pot of soup to cook for another five minutes. You can eat Oha soup with Eba, Fufu, Semolina, and Amala.

What's New
April 2014 - CamRanger is now capable of controlling StackShot!
Sound Activated Triggering
By connecting a microphone to StopShot you can trigger on anything that makes noise. StopShot has a gain control on it to allow the microphone sensitivity to be adjusted. Some examples of pictures that were triggered by sound are shown below. After the trigger is first sensed you can program StopShot to fire the flash or shutter with virtually any delay you wish.
Using StopShot with a microphone is very easy. Simply plug the microphone into the microphone jack and plug the camera or flash into trigger 1. Using the UP button adjust the delay for trigger 1 according to your setup. You can see a diagram below of what the StopShot display will look like. In this case StopShot is programmed to wait 5mS before it fires the camera or flash. 5mS is 5/1000 of a second or 0.005s. This would be a good starting point for capturing a balloon in the middle of popping. Start with the gain in the middle position and adjust it clockwise if you need the microphone to be more sensitive or counterclockwise if you need it to be less sensitive.
Microphone for Sound Activated Pictures
== StopShot==
Trigger 1: 5.0 mS
Trigger 2: off
Trigger 3: off
Shutter lag can be a huge factor when using sound as a trigger. The shutter lag of a high end DSLR is around 50 mS. This is way too much lag to capture many noisy events. Balloons popping, bulbs smashing and cork popping are all examples of events that will be over by the time the camera gets around to actually taking the image. The fix for this it to shoot in a darkened room and have StopShot fire the flash instead of the camera. You will have to hold the shutter of the camera open when creating the event.
Another thing to keep in mind when using sound as a trigger is that sound moves slow... really slow in terms of high speed events. Consider a balloon popping, it takes around 10mS to completely deflate. Sound moves at about 340m/s. If you take your first shot with the microphone at 0.5m and then move the microphone to 1.5m for the next shot you just added 3.4mS of delay to when the flash fires. Your balloon shot goes form being mid pop to completely over by the time the flash fires.
Below are some examples of what is possible with sound triggering. Click on the image to see a larger version.

Storyboard Pro supports two types of fields for storing and breaking up your project's script:
- The Script field is a field in the Storyboard view in which you can type, or import, your entire project's script. A Storyboard Pro project has only one Script field.
- Caption fields are special text fields for storing information such as dialogue, actions, scene information, scrubbing information and any other type of relevant information for each of your storyboard's panels. Each panel in your project has its own caption fields, and each field is used for a different type of information. The types of caption fields used by your project can be customized.
You can write or import your project's script into the Script field of the Storyboard view, which is a single text field for your entire project:
Then, you can fill up the caption fields for each panel in your storyboard using the Panel view. The Panel view allows you to view and edit the content of the caption fields for the currently selected panel.


Do Bones Burn During Cremation?
By Staff WriterLast Updated Mar 28, 2020 1:30:38 AM ET
During the cremation process, bones are only partially burned and not completely destroyed. The process involves subjecting the remains to intense flame and heat, during which all organic matter is consumed.
The cremation process leaves behind certain bone fragments. After the remains are removed from the cremation chamber, a magnet removes any metal that was inside the body, such as implants and dental fixtures. The remaining bone fragments are then processed into fine particles and placed into a container. The cremation process generally takes about three hours and entails a careful labelling system to ensure that the remains are properly identified through the entire process.


Lake Wind Advisory:
Lake Wind Advisories are issued when sustained winds of 25 knots or greater are expected for several hours during the first 12 hours of the forecast. Typically wind forecasts are expressed in ranges. Thus for example a wind forecast of 15 to 25 knots, or 20 to 30 knots would both constitute advisory level conditions. Winds of this magnitude typically create choppy to rough water in exposed areas, leading to potentially hazardous conditions for those operating small craft.

Starting from items such as A, B, C, D, both Items.Exchange(1,2) and Items.Move(1,2) give us:

Definition - What does Smart Pig mean?
A smart pig is an inspection device that records information about the internal conditions of a pipeline. It is used to detect and measure corrosion and metal loss internally and externally on the pipe wall. Smart pigs can also detect curvatures in the pipeline.
When referring to using a smart pig for a pipeline some may refer to the process as "pigging the pipeline."
A smart pig is also known as a pipe pig, pipeline pig, pipeline inspection gauge, pipeline inline inspection tool, natural gas pipeline inspection tool or corrosion detection pig.
Corrosionpedia explains Smart Pig
Smart pigs are pipeline inspection tools that consist of large pieces of machinery combined with powerful technology that help with the maintenance of pipelines.
These inspection tools provide data on the condition of pipelines, which helps gauge the health and integrity of the pipes. These smart pigs ensure that transmission of the product does not stop due to pipeline integrity issues, which can be disastrous.
Smart pigs can be inserted into the pipeline at a location, such as a valve or pump station, that has a special configuration of pipes and valves where the tool can be loaded into a receiver. The receiver is closed and sealed, and the flow of the pipeline product can be directed to launch the tool into the main line of the pipeline. A similar setup is located downstream, where the tool is directed out of the main line into a receiver, removed from the pipeline, and the recorded data retrieved for analysis and reporting.
Smart pigs may measure several different things from inside the pipeline, including restrictions and deformations of the pipe, as well as metal loss. Odometer wheels are used to measure exactly where the pig is within the pipeline.
Smart pigs are used to detect problems such as:
- Stress corrosion cracking
- General corrosion
- Pitting corrosion
- Anomalous weld seams
- Longitudinal cracks
- Longitudinal grooves

Magnoliaceae species are considered as an original angiosperm, which has had extensive distribution in the Earth history. It had acted as an important role to origin of angiosperm; and some of species of Magnoliaceae grow quickly and have great development potential to timber, planting in the cities and towns as a greening tree, making into medicine and fragrances. Owing to the forests of different region become more and more severely destroyed and fragmentized, making many Magnoliaceae species falling into threatened condition therefore, how to conserve and explore Magnoliaceae species attract people's attention. In this paper, by the GIS measure, we researched the Magnoliaceae species geographical distribution of Guangdong province China, and discussed the relation between Magnoliaceae species geographical distribution, analyzed the characteristic of different Magnoliaceae species. Based on this research, some protection measure are offered in this paper.

A_SmokeTrailer is an action that is used to spawn a trail of Objects of a type determined by Var1 when called repeatedly. In Doom Legacy, this action was originally used to spawn smoke trails for rockets and Lost Souls; the action itself is based on the action A_Tracer from Doom, used for the Revenant's homing missiles, which spawned a smoke trail and followed the tracer. A_SmokeTrailer in comparison reuses only the smoke-spawning code from A_Tracer, hence the name of the action. In SRB2, this is used to spawn smoke trails behind the Snailer's missile and the Sea Egg's torpedo.
The position the Objects are spawned at relative to the actor depends on the speed and direction of the actor's current movement, set up so it will trail behind opposite to the actor's movement direction, and the Objects will only be spawned every 4 tics. The spawned Objects will then rise slowly in the air at a speed of 1 fracunit/tic, and their initial state's duration is randomly reduced by 0-2 tics.

This post explains how to calibrate two 2Touch screens to work with an extended desktop configuration – where the desktop spans across two display screens, with the Windows task bar in the left-hand screen and an extended working area in the right-hand screen.
Implementing interactive touch for the above configuration requires two units both of which are equipped with both serial and USB communications.
(Note: The other common multiple-screen configuration is the Stretched Desktop.)
Extending the desktop across two monitors is simply achieved in Windows "Display Properties" dialog. Note: both monitors must have the same Screen Resolution settings.
The two touch screens are calibrated separately, one using USB communications and the other using serial communications. We will call the two 2Touch screens "Touch Panel 1" and "Touch Panel 2" respectively.
Calibrating Touch Panel 1
1. Connect the power supply to Touch Panel 1 and then connect the USB cable.
2. Carry out the simple four-point Calibration procedure.
Calibrating Touch Panel 2
1. Install NextWindow's Touch+ Software, making sure you select "Run serial runtime on Windows startup."
2. Locate the Serial Runtime directory.
The default is here:
C:\Program Files\NextWindow\Touch+ #.#.#\Serial Runtime
3. Create a text file called SerialRuntime.ini and enter the following lines:
Note the parameter OffsetX=32767 in the [Main] Section. This pushes the calibration points for the serial connection over to the extended screen.
4. Connect the serial cable from Touch Panel 2 to the computer.
5. Run the SerialConfig program, select [Port Detect] and then click the [Calibration] button to start the Calibration sequence for Touch Panel 2.
This completes the calibration procedure. Now both monitors are touch enabled.

Ok so I have two lists in C#
List attributes = new List();
List songs = new List();
one is of strings and and one is of a attribute object that i created..very simple
class Attribute
 public string size { get; set; }
 public string link { get; set; }
 public string name { get; set; }
 public Attribute(){}
 public Attribute(string s, string l, string n)
 size = s;
 link = l;
 name = n;
I now have to compare to see what songs are not in the attributes name so for example
songs.Add("yet another");
Attribute a = new Attribute("500", "_URL_", "something" );
I want a way to return "another" and "yet another" because they are not in the attributes list name
so for pseudocode
difference = songs - attributes.names

This is the way to find all the songs which aren't included in attributes names:
var result = songs
 .Where(!attributes.Select(a => a.name).ToList().Contains(song));
The answer using Except is also perfect and probably more efficient.
EDIT: This sintax has one advantage if you're using it in LINQ to SQL: it translates into a NOT IN SQL predicate. Except is not translated to anything in SQL. So, in that context, all the records would be recovered from the database and excepted on the app side. Is much less efficiente.

It's worth pointing out that the answers posted here will return a list of songs not present in attributes.names, but it won't give you a list of attributes.names not present in songs.
While this is what the OP wanted, the title may be a little misleading, especially if (like me) you came here looking for a way to check whether the contents of two lists differ. If this is what you want, you can use the following:-
var differences = new HashSet(songs);
differences.SymmetricExceptWith(attributes.Select(a => a.name));
if (differences.Any())
 // The lists differ.

RTX shows bigger calculation difference with CPU than GTX?
I have source codes to solve 2-dimensional shallow water equation using C++ and Cuda 11.2.
I have tested the exe file on GTX970, GTX1080Ti, RTX2070, RTX2080, RTX2080Super.
The results of calculation difference with CPU are as below.
GPU ====> Max. value of calculation result difference with CPU
GTX970 ====> 0.001
GTX1080Ti ====> 0.001
RTX2070 ====> 0.204
RTX2080 ====> 0.261
RTX2080Super ====> 0.221
The question is "Why RTXs have bigger difference than GTXs? "
Are there any build options for RTXs?
I use Visual studio 2019, Cuda Toolkit 11.2, and C++.
I applied sm_52 and compute_52( or sm_75 and compute_75), and "Use Fast Math : false" options.
My PC OS is Windows10 64bit.
Please help me.
calculation difference with CPU
This is not a valid measure of correctness or accuracy.
Since code generation has an architecture-dependent component, on both CPUs and GPUs, numerical differences can result. For example, the compiler may re-arrange code to increase instruction-level parallelism, or apply fusion of FMUL and dependent FADD into an FMA (fused multiply-add) differently, or some math functions may have slightly different accuracy within the stated accuracy bounds.
If you want to assess accuracy, the easiest (but not entirely foolproof) way is to compute reference results in (much) higher precision, then compare against that.
If you merely need the issue to go away, try compiling with -fmad=false. Note: this will in all likelihood decrease both performance and accuracy of the GPU implementation.
Thanks njuffa,
You are right, it is not about accuracy.
So I have changed the title of this issue.
Previous title : RTX shows lower floating point accuracy than GTX?
New title: RTX shows bigger calculation difference with CPU than GTX?
I think its unlikely that anyone can give you a complete answer unless either you provide a complete code example, or someone decides to write a lengthy tutorial for you.
The only "build options" specific to RTX that come to mind are the ones you already mentioned: it's always good practice to compile for the architecture(s) you intend to run on, e.g. compute_75/sm_75 for a cc7.5 GPU.
Here is a brief tutorial. I would say there are two general categories of issues here.
 1. Those arising from machine calculation methods. For example comparing float to double, or with or with FMA contraction, are a couple examples. Such differences can easily give rise to differences in results, whether we are talking about comparing CPU to GPU or some other comparison. In addition, other more complex operations such as sin(), cos(), and other "library" match functions may simply be implemented differently on two different "machines" giving rise to different results.
 2. Those arising from order of operations (algorithm calculation methods). Floating point operations don't always have all the characteristics of basic math operations that we learned about in grade school/middle school. If you compare a serial algorithm/realization to a parallel algorithm/realization, its often the case that the math doesn't get done in exactly the same order. This can give rise to differences. A possible item to read here is this floating point whitepaper
Because the two GPUs you mention generally have different sizes (e.g. differing numbers of SMs, for example) a nice ninja-tuned parallel reduction that scopes out the size of the GPU being run on, then uses e.g. a grid-stride loop to size the grid to match the GPU, and then doing a parallel reduction, will likely give at least slightly different results depending on the GPU it is run on.
I doubt that is actually the issue in your case; I don't know what the issue is in your case. You're welcome to discuss it further, but I'm unlikely to provide any further response unless you provide a short, complete example that demonstrates the issue.
There are many questions on various forums that fit this general description (CPU/GPU differences), here is one example. Yes, I'm aware that one doesn't specifically focus on GPU-GPU differences. Here is one that discusses GPU-GPU results differences, in a general way. I'm sure you can find others.
Thank you, Robert_Crovella
I will review my codes carefully about your comments.
And if I have any positive results, I will let you know.
Thank you, Robert_Crovella.
I have reviewed my codes in detail, and it seems I have found the solution.
The summaries of my review are as follows.
 1. __syncthreads() function acted more strictly in RTX than GTX.
 (e.g. At a __syncthreads() in a "if" statement, RTX was hung but GTX was not.)
 2. GTX was more sensitive on the value of thread per block (TPB).
 When the TPB was changed, the calculation results from GTX were less sensitive than RTX.
 (** My calculation includes iteration process (implicit method).)
 3. When I applied larger value of TPB(e.g. 32, 64, 128, 256, 512), the calculation results from RTX became closer to the results using CPU. I think, this may be, larger TPB can sync more control volumes in a block even though cudaDeviceSynchronize() is not applied.
 (** The control volume is minimum calculation unit when using finite volume method (FVM).)
 4. When I applied TPB as 256 or a larger value to RTXs and 32 to GTXs, the calculation results from all the GPUs were very close to the results using CPU.
 (** In my first posting of May 27, TPB 32 was applied to all RTXs and GTXs.)
Again, thank you for your comments and encouraging.

carnage /kάɚnɪdʒ/ : 大量虐殺
原義はラテン語のcarnaticum (動物を屠ること)です。同義語はmassacre, genocide, mass murderです。
Carnage means "killing many people during war". The etymology comes from carnem (meat). The original meaning is Latin carnaticum (slaughter of animals). Its synonyms are massacre, genocide and mass murder. Let's see examples of carnage.
In the Middle Ages, Europeans carried out carnage to Native Americans and Indigenous Australians. During WW2, Nazis carried out carnage to Jewish people.
carnal /kάɚnl/ : 肉体の
Carnal means "relating to one's body". The etymology comes from carnis (of the meat). The original meaning is Latin carnalis (natural). Its synonym is sensual. Let's see example sentences of carnal.
All human has carnal desire for species preservation (or conservation). Female's plump body excite male's carnal desire. It is unwise to live only for carnal pleasure.
carnation /kɑɚnéɪʃən/ : カーネーション
Carnation means "a red flower". The etymology comes from caro (meat). The original meaning is Latin carnationem (meat).
Carnation is the perennial plant which makes bright red flowers. It is indigenous to from Southern Europe to Mediterranean coasts in Western Asia. In Islamic countries where the worship of idols are banned, they use a carnation as Arabesque's patterns. The red carnation's flower language is "the love for mother", and so Japan has the culture where children gives red carnation to their mother in Mother's Day.
carnival /kάɚnəv(ə)l/ : 謝肉祭・カーニバル
carnivalは「謝肉祭」を意味し、語源はcaro(肉)とlavare(離れる)に由来します。原義はラテン語のcarne vale (肉よ、さらば！)です。

Final goods Definition
In economics Final goods are goods that are ultimately consumed rather than used in the production of another good. For example, a car sold to a consumer is a final good; the components such as tires sold to the car manufacturer are not; they are intermediate goods used to make the final good.
When used in measures of national income and output the term Final goods only includes new goods. For instance, the GDP excludes items counted in an earlier year to prevent double counting of production based on resales of the same item second and third hand.
Consumer goods are exactly the same as final goods, but with the subtle difference that they are specifically intended for the mass market. For instance, consumer goods do not include investment assets, like precious antiques, even though these items are final goods.

Advertising of Therapeutic Goods in Australia
A comprehensive system of controls operates federally across Australia to regulate the advertising of therapeutic goods. This system comprises three integrated levels of regulation - government regulation, co-regulation and self regulation. These complex controls are in place because therapeutic goods are not ordinary items of commerce and it is particularly important that any marketing of them is socially responsible, encourages only appropriate use of products and does not mislead or deceive.
The key components of the advertising controls are:
- advertising codes
- advertising approval requirements
- complaint mechanisms
- self-monitoring activities
Therapeutic goods include medical devices and all medicines, be they over-the-counter medicines or complementary medicines. Only medicines that are unscheduled, schedule 2, or schedule 3 and in Appendix H of the Poisons Standard, may be advertised to consumers. It is illegal to refer to prescription products/substances in advertisements for therapeutic goods directed to consumers.

The pronounciation suggests that the sentence is about a mango in general (lEmango), not the specific mango (which would be lAmango, wouldn't it?).
I did. I finally figured out that instead of spamming in comments, it's better to just report.
It used to be a problem because the suggested translation was "The mango has a good smell". Now they have apparently fixed it, and it is about a general mango, as the translation suggests.
You could say המנגו מריח טוב = the mango smells good. but המנגו יש ריח טוב is not a correct sentence. The ל implies the ownership in the way the verb "to have" is constructed in Hebrew. Translated literally this sentence is "there is good smell to the mango". the ל incorporated the "to the".
With the definite article, shouldn't it be "la-mango"? I'm hearing "le-mango."
It isn't necessarily the definite article here. You could say le-mango and this sentence can mean "(any) mango has good smell.
The only issue with the translation is that when translating verbatim from H to any western language, an interpretation is required to have the sentence make sense. "For the mango there's a nice smell" simply reads what we all know: Mangoes smell nice...
Why "a" article is needed for "good smell"?? Why "mango has good smell" is incorrect?
Are you asking regarding the translation of this sentence, or in English generally?
You need the article "a" in front of mango in English. Here's an article explaining it: _URL_
That depends on whether you are using "mango" as a countable noun or as a mass noun. If mangoes smell good in general and that is the message you are trying to convey, then it's fine to treat it as a mass noun and forego the indefinite article. In fact, saying "a mango smells good" indicates that there is somewhere in the world a mango that smells good. That is not what you're trying to say.
The article you linked gives a similar example: Fruit is on sale.
So, if "Mango smells good" is an acceptable translation, why is "A mango smells good" rejected?
Reyakh. Though sometimes pronounced re-akh (native speakers swallow the y sound).
The other way around, I think: It's always /re-akh/, and /re-yach/ is an anomaly that's fading away. It's the pronunication of Israelies who immigrated from Poland and Russia up until the 30's, their most luminary example (for pronunication jokes) being Shimon Peres. Also you find it in songs from the 50's through mid-70's, because singers were taught to add it on the grounds that hyatus is not nice. _URL_ (/ya yareyach/: יא ירח, addressing the moon).
Hebrew isn't as strict about word order as English. Both variants are acceptable.
That said, what is this sentence about? Mangos. The mango is the subject. So it makes sense to put the mango first, and the word that modifies the mango (יש) afterwards. But feel free to phrase it in any of these ways for the desired emphasis:
למנגו יש ריח טוב
יש למנגו ריח טוב
ריח טוב יש למנגו
But don't say the following. It makes you sound like Yoda:
ריח טוב למנגו יש

I know a Chinese proverbial phrase. Translated literally into English, it says something along the lines of "Sky falls big pancakes". When used negatively in the phrase, "The sky does not fall big pancakes," it is generally used to warn against idleness.

天上掉馅饼，means that free and delicious food like pies are falling from the sky. Or its negative form: 天上不会掉馅饼
Nowadays it usually means that people who are lazy are expecting something miracle but impossible will happen to them. For example:
This phrase came from a Chinese myth. After 嫦娥(the lady in the legend who swallowed the elixir stolen from her husband and flew to the moon) went to the moon, 后羿(the man in the legend who shot 9 suns out of 10 and saved the earth from the heat) was very sad and thought about her every day. When 嫦娥 found out his love, she wrote her love on a pie. Because she is on the moon, there came the phrase: 天上掉馅饼

Here is an explain by BaiDuPedia in Chinese:天上掉馅饼本指天空中降落类似馅饼那样的即免费又好吃的食物，泛指在自然生活中会无缘无故的发生一些可以满足人们欲望的物质或财富上面的事情；现在也贬指那些坐享其成，成天不务实际的人在假想一些不可能发生的事情，等待出现奇迹，天上怎么可能会掉馅饼。
馅饼 is a common food in China even today, it may be like a salty pie(I'm sorry, I have not met a pie). You get a 馅饼 from sky rather than you cook it, how lucky! You pay no effort. Thus, 天上掉馅饼 means getting something without effort; 天上不会掉馅饼 warns you that this thing will not happen, that is, you'd better do your best to get something. There is a fable story known by everybody in China <守株待兔>, it gives the same warning.

This paper discusses tetrahedra with rational edges forming a geometric progression, focussing on whether they can have rational volume or rational face areas. We examine the 30 possible configurations of such tetrahedra and show that no face of any of these has rational area. We show that 28 of these configurations cannot have rational volume, and in the remaining two cases there are at most six possible examples, and none have been found.
