Silence removes a minion's card text and eliminates any other effects present on the card. However, the minion can still have effects applied to it after.
- If a minions is silenced, you can still buff it, including buffs that come from other minions, such as, whose +1 attack to adjacent minions will renew immediately following a neighboring minion being silenced.
- You can also place spell buffs on a minion after it has been silenced.
- Silence will not reverse effects of ownership, such as a minion being returned to its original owner.
- It does not reverse effects of card identity either, for example a when silenced will not revert to its 3/3 form.
- Silence will remove other spell effects cast by you or by your opponent, including freeze.
- When a minion is silenced it returns to its original health if its current health is above its original health; however, if its current health is below its original health, its health will not change.
- A card with the Silence ability removes all buffs and all effects (even those written on the card) from the target while the target remains in play.
- The only way to reverse a silence is to put the card back into your hand and play it again via cards like or.
Below is a list of all cards with the silence mechanic.
- Note: For the purposes of this list, only collectible cards are listed.


Weighted Average Credit Rating
DEFINITION of 'Weighted Average Credit Rating'
The weighted average of all the bond credit ratings in a bond fund. The measure gives investors an idea of how risky a fund's bonds are overall. The lower the weighted average credit rating, the riskier the bond fund. The weighted average credit rating is expressed as a regular letter rating (AAA, BBB, CCC).
BREAKING DOWN 'Weighted Average Credit Rating'
To arrive at the weighted average credit rating, the calculation starts with dividing the value of each bond in the fund by the total value of the fund. This gives the individual bond weights. The weight of a bond in the fund determines how much that bond influences the weighted average credit rating. For example, if a bond fund has 95% AAA government bonds and 5% junk bonds, the bond fund would still have a weighted average credit rating of AAA.

BRIGHTY K is a liquid fertilizer for supplying potassium to a planted aquarium. When potassium is insufficient, the photosynthesis activity and growth of aquatic plants are affected, and this can cause yellowing and bleaching of leaves as well as lower resistance to algae. Daily application of BRIGHTY K to the aquarium eliminates these problems caused by potassium deficiency and promotes growth of aquatic plants.
BRIGHTY K also has an effect of enhancing the buffering capacity of water and prevents a decline in the pH of aquarium water.
*BRIGHTY K is strongly alkaline. The pH of aquarium water may rise temporarily immediately after this product is applied, but it will eventually return to the original level.

In this paper, the limitations of the performance of electroabsorption modulators (EAMs) as optical transceivers in passive picocell systems by using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method are theoretically investigated. EAMs with no bias voltage are modeled by the FDTD method with consideration of the interaction between electromagnetic fields and optical powers in optical waveguides. Transmission and responsivity of EAMs according to various optical input powers and chip lengths are calculated. Then, power margins of the downlink and uplink paths are estimated to define the service ranges of the passive picocell systems. In addition, EAMs with biased voltage are characterized for comparison. The results suggest that the service range of the passive picocell system using a no-biased EAM can be extended up to 20 m with a chip length of 400 μm and an optical input power larger than 10 dBm.

A common task when programming with GTViewer or GTVx is to get the Linkage off of an element (for more info on linkages, look here). For example, if an event were fired indicating that an element had been selected, you get the Category Id and the Element Offset of the selected element as parameters in the event. So, how do you get the Linkage stored on the element so that you can lookup database information? It turns out that there are several ways to do this, but I am going to provide a generic approach that should work for most cases.
It turns out that there is a method provided by both GTViewer and GTVx to retrieve the linkage from an element. It is aptly named GetElementLinkage; however, it returns an array of linkage values (since GTViewer data can have 1 to 7 linkage values per element). Most datasets use a 1 or 2 key linkage system and it sometimes, so it sometimes seems cumbersome to deal with an array when you know you will always be getting one or two linkage values. It is pretty easy to write a function in VB to just return you the one key or two keys without having to deal with the array. The example below is for 2 keys, but it should be obvious how to downgrade this code to a 1 key version.
Function GetElementLinkage(ByVal categoryId As Long, _
ByVal offset As Long, _
dataId As Long, _
key1 As Long, key2 As Long) As Boolean
' This function will get the linkage off of the element specified by its
' categoryId and offset. The dataId, key1, and key2 values will be populated.
' If the element contains only a 1 key linkage, key2 will be 0.
' The function returns True if a linkage was found and False otherwise.
GetElementLinkage = False
Dim linkageList As Variant
Dim linkCount As Long
key1 = 0
key2 = 0
If docObj.GetElementLinkage(categoryId, offset, linkageList, linkCount) Then
dataId = docObj.GetDataId(categoryId)
If linkCount > 0 Then
key1 = linkageList(0)
If linkCount > 1 Then
key2 = linkageList(1)
GetElementLinkage = True
The function above is for GTViewer, but it is very easy to use it with GTVx as well. You can either change the docObj reference to a GTVx1 (or whatever variable name you assigned to the control) or you can add something like the following to your code and use the same code for both GTViewer and GTVX. Write your code for GTViewer making sure to use the correct object when calling the methods (appObj, docObj, or viewObj). For GTVx, just define variables like the ones below in your general section:
Dim appObj As GTVx
Dim docObj As GTVx
Dim viewObj As GTVx
And somewhere in your code, assign the object variables to the GTVx control (Form_Load is a good place to do this):
Private Sub Form_Load()
Set appObj = GTVX1
Set docObj = GTVX1
Set viewObj = GTVX1
That is all you have to do. The function is provided in an appendix to the GTVx.doc file. There are other useful code snippets in this document as well.


5 Digital Product Examples That Are Created And Sold Most
by Alex Mansour
2 months ago · 3 min read
The huge spread of digital technologies and e-commerce has made us see what are known as digital products. Unlike physical products that have been known for years, digital products don't have a physical existence. But they still make huge sales, with many digital product examples that may use or consume every day.
digital products
Having digital products, as a business or individual, can have many advantages. You can sell these digital products more easily. Without having to make huge investments or build warehouses or factories.
If you are considering making a digital product, here are examples of some of the most widely sold and created digital products that you can create and sell as a person or a business.
Software or application
One of the most widely created and sold digital products is software products. Many of the software that you use daily is digital products by businesses or individuals. They can be in the form of PC software, a mobile application, or a web app.
Whether it is software for editing photos or a mobile application for listening to music. It is a digital product that makes money for the business behind it. The software industry is growing rapidly around the world. Many software products are becoming more and more important.
While businesses can create their software themselves, they can also outsource their software to a software development company.
The transition from physical book copies to digital book copies was just a matter of time. Right now the transition is happening at high rates. As more and more people are reading books digitally instead of physical books.
With many choices of laptops, tablets, mobile phones with large screens, and ebook readers like Amazon Kindle, fewer people are in need of physical book copies.
Ebooks are emerging widely since then and became something on their own. Becoming a new publication that businesses and individuals can use to deliver information to audiences. That is without the hassle of traditional publishing.
Ebooks are often in an informal language just like any web content. They have no limitations for page numbers or any other aspect. Any business or individual can create an Ebook to let people learn something, conclude or explain it with infographics or checklists.
Audio and video
One of the biggest examples of digital products currently is audio and video products. Whether they are audiobooks, audio files that you can use as resources, or videos published in one of many ways. They are all digital products that people and businesses sell.
With cheaper equipment and platforms for anyone to sell or publish audio and video. Anyone and any business can create high-quality audio and video. In addition, they can sell them or publish them to help them share knowledge or achieve business goals.
Video games
The video games industry is one of the biggest industries when it comes to digital products. Therefore, for people to buy and enjoy video games, whether, for PCs, game consoles, or mobile phones, you can buy them digitally.
Not all video games are big and created by huge companies. Either one person or a small team creates them, they are still making big amounts of money. Which is the greatest thing about digital game platforms like Steam. One of the best things about digital products, as an individual or business, can benefit no matter how small it is.
Online courses
Online courses are among the biggest examples of digital products, considering how widely spread and popular they are. Most of us have enrolled in an online course or more. They are a great solution for learning that the digital world is offering us.
Anyone can create an online course and sell it online. Even without needing to create a platform from scratch to sell it, platforms like Udemy and Teachable make it much easier.

Released January 29, 2021.
Roughly 220 million tons of MSW are landfilled each year, across 1,500 MSW landfills (MSWLFs). One metric for the cost of disposal is the gate rate or tipping fee, i.e. the amount charged per ton for disposal at the landfill. EREF routinely surveys active MSWLFs across the U.S. to estimate the average MSWLF tipping fee nationally, regionally and on a state-by-state basis. The primary goal of the study is to track changes in MSWLF tip fee, and explore the relationship between tip fee and MSW management practices.
Results from this study will provide insight into the following types of questions:
- What is the average MSWLF tipping fee, and how does it vary across the U.S.?
- Are MSWLF tip fees increasing or decreasing each year?
- How does tip fee correlate to other MSW management practices (e.g. WTE, recycling)?

Extact latitude and longitude from eopatch
Hello everybody!
I'm new in eolearn. I executed the full example of slovinia.
In order to adapt the code to my study area I need to have the latitude and longitude of each point of an epoatch.
How could I do that please!
Hi Sophie,
You will find some useful elements in this post. Maybe _USER_ has made some progress and can give some tips?
Hi _USER_.lamare _USER_
I would like to help. But, I am still seeking the solution. There is no much documentation. I am trying to find something.
If there is any improvement it be shared.
Take a look at this stack overflow post, it should help you. You have the corner coordinates and pixel size from your eopatch, and I'm thinking you can assume zero rotation and thus use the simplified calculation.
Otherwise, I found some inbuilt eolearn functions that can help: eopatch_to_dataset & new_coordinates, but you would need to experiment with them (they are seldom used):
from eolearn.visualization.xarray_utils import eopatch_to_dataset, new_coordinates
# Convert patch to xarray
ptch = eopatch_to_dataset(eopatch)
# Get coordinates in lat lon (check the input and output CRS
# they may be different for you)
latlon = new_coordinates(ptch, CRS('32633'), CRS('4326'))

Of Saints and Sharifian Kings in Morocco: Three Examples of the Politics of Reimagining History Through Reinventing King/Saint Relationship
MetadataShow full item record
The relationship between sainthood and the sharifian monarchy in Morocco has attracted much attention from researchers within the area of Moroccan studies. The analysis of this relationship can offer invaluable insights into the dynamics of Moroccan history because the king and the saint are widely regarded as the two most salient actors in this history. Yet, the study of the relationship between these two figures has suffered a tendency towards downplaying its historically dynamic nature, and essentializing the cultural constructs upon which it is predicated. In this thesis, I offer a revisionary reading of king/saint relationship through analyzing three examples from the 'Alawite dynasty. I argue that this relationship has been highly dynamic, and has capitalized on baraka and sharifism as versatile cultural constructs. More significantly, the dynamics of king/saint relationship in Moroccan culture allows the strategic reinvention of history in order to meet the demands of changing historical contexts.

How to Make Clay Bricks and Tiles
Testing of Soil for Brick-Making:
 1. Get a handful of soil and add enough water to make it sticky.
 2. Mold it into balls and dry under the sun for 2 to 4 days.
 3. See whether the dried soil cracked or not. If it remains firm and hard the soil is clay.
 4. Test another one with this procedure.
Conduct another test by molding 4″ x 10″ x 2″ and burn with rice husk for one week. Good clay when dried by this method will sound metallic when tapped.
There are three (3) types of manufacturing methods for bricks:
 1. Soft-mud
 2. Soft-mud with repressing machine
 3. Mechanical method
Methods 1 and 2 are most suited for cottage industry. They are manually generated and require only a small capital.
Method 3 used machines for raw material processing and farming. Even if most of the machine can be made it still needs a big capital investment.
 1. Raw clay is left in the open for stock piling with a duration of about two (2) months or until the clay disintegrates through the action of sun and rain.
 2. The disintegrated clay is brought to the processing area. Sandy clay, plastic clay and sand are mixed in their proper proportions. Water is added to combine clay mixture.
 3. Knead either by hand or foot for about three (3) hours.
 4. After kneading, the clay should be aged for two (2) days to get a homogeneous mixture. Aging distributes its workability and lessening the possibility of cracking during drying and firing.
 5. Form the clay into a wooden mold.
 6. The formed bricks from the mold are then placed on a pallet and allowed to dry to leather hardness for not more than two (2) days.
 7. The leather hard bricks are retouched to remove the finger marks and scratches due to forming and handling. The retouching work can either be done by skillful hand manipulation or by machine for better and faster finishing.
 8. Retouched bricks are kept in the drying area until they are completely and uniformly dried. The drying takes about two (2) weeks during dry season and four (4) weeks on a rainy season.
 9. When dried, put the clay in improvised kiln. Arrange them loosely and pour rice hulls in between the spaces.
 10. Set fire from the bottom. Baking process takes one week.
Materials: clay, sand, water
Tools: shovel, hoe, pickax, strainer, wire #14, wooden scraper, wooden molds 10″ x5″ x12½", gas oven
 1. Dig soil, remove stones and waste with the use of strainer.
 2. Mix with: 25% water (1 part water in 4 parts of soil) and 10% sand (10 parts of sand in 10 parts of clay). Mix well.
 3. Put in molds, scrape excess.
 4. Remove molds and let dry bricks within 3 to 4 weeks at room temperature.
 5. Invert brick so it would not crack or form wrinkles.
 6. Preheat gas oven for 2 hours at 980°C.
 7. Arrange bricks alternately
 8. Bake for 16 hours.
 9. Cool before use.

Chinese Iron Balls
How Iron Balls Are Made
How to Videos
Chinese Iron Balls
Chinese Iron Balls originated in Baoding, China. Baoding, China is said to have three treasures. The first is the iron ball, the second is a sauce made from fermented flour, and the third is potherb mustard. These treasures have been passed down through the generations for over 300 hundred years.
The iron balls were used as a therapy exercise. A pair of balls are held in your hand and rotated in circles around each other. As you rotate, your fingers get a work out and your dexterity improves. It takes a lot of practice to be able to rotate the balls in both directions. Usually it is easy to rotate a pair clockwise, but takes skill to rotate counterclockwise.
The reason the iron balls are good for therapy besides the physical exercise, is that the Chinese believed the iron balls pressed on certain acupuncture points on the hands. This action enhanced the flow of a persons chi energy which promoted good health and long life.
Today they are still used by tai chi classes, physical therapists, musicians, stressed out people, and people with carpal tunnel syndrome just to name a few. Since they have so many applications, they go by many names such as chinese stress balls, health balls, exercise balls, tai chi balls, and baoding balls

Vulnerable Art: Historic Iron Fences at Mount Auburn Cemetery
In the early years at Mount Auburn Cemetery many proprietors chose to enclose their lots with iron fences. By the 1860's, 1700 iron fences dotted the cemetery. People called the look, "crazy quilt." Iron fence art was short lived. By 1871 a movement to remove them began. Today only a treasured few remain and the Cemetery is committed to preserving them. In this walk with Volunteer Docent Rosemarie Smurzynski you will visit these fences, learn a vocabulary for this art, and discover what makes these remaining fences significant.

The momentum distribution of positronium (Ps) in BaF2 single crystal has been investigated in a temperature range from 10 to 297K. The existence of the delocalized and localized Ps has been confirmed. The momentum distribution of the delocalized Ps, a central peak at zero momentum and satellite peaks at the momenta corresponding to the reciprocal lattice vectors, has a large width even at 10K. The width is almost independent of temperature. The behavior is different from that of the delocalized Ps in other ionic crystals. This indicates that the delocalized Ps in BaF2 is strongly coupled to the phonon field.

Rotation for RBXDevs-How to Fix Wood Grain
Hello confused devs of ROBLOX, WoodReviewer here. Today I am not here to just talk about how wood grain should go. Today I am only here to talk about how you rotate wood grain to fix it. Yes, I know. You just rotate and resize the bricks. But that seems to be above what some people are able to do. So lets start at the very basics on how you fix wood grain.
No Plugins
This first part is how you can fix wood grain with a completely stock version of ROBLOX studio, no plugins or anything, like I use to do for years before newer building plugins were a thing. The first step is to have some bad wood grain.
Bad Grain.png
The second step is to change the wood grain to wooden planks.
bad grain planks.png
Why? Simply put, wooden planks and regular wood have the same grain direction, and with the darker lines provided by the gaps between the planks, it can be easier to tell what way the wood grain is facing.
Step two isn't a step as much as making sure you do everything right. Simple check the size of the brick you are fixing.
There are several ways to do this, either in notepad, sticky notes, mental notes, or making a duplicate brick and putting it some where to act as a reference point.
Size Notepad.png
Next up is another option step in case you can't tell what way the wood grain is facing. First, you need to resize the brick.
Resize Planks.png
But don't resize it all at once; do one side first.
Resize Planks 2.png
Then the other side an equal amount. The ensures the center of the brick stays in the same exact place while rotating the brick.
Resize Planks 3.png
And then resize the other two sides the same way. Again, this is optional, only do it if you can't tell what direction you need to rotate the board for proper wood grain.
Final Planks Resize.png
Next up you need to rotate the wood. Studio normal rotation amount means that that it should go an even 90 degree rotations, but if it does not change your rotation amount so it can do an even 90 degrees.
Planks Rotate.png
Next is a game of guess-and-check. Rotate the wood until it is finally at the correct orientation. This can vary based on how the wood was originally.
Planks rotations.png
From here, simply resize the brick so it is back to its original dimensions. Remember, to keep the brick in the same position you need to rotate each side by equal amounts. So in this case, it was 3x3x7. To make it be 1x1x7, you need to resize the longest side by 3 studs each, and the short side by 1 stud each. Then to fix its height, raise the top and lower the bottom by 2 studs each.
Resize final.png
Then, in the last step, change it back to wood if that is what you want, and voila, proper wood grain.
Back to wood.png
Next up is a slightly easier way to fix wood grain, but requires a plugin. Personally I prefer CmdUtl or one of its derivatives, such as Studio Build Suite, but any plugin that will let you rotate objects and resize from center should work. This is what I will be working with, a dozen or so bad pieces of wood grain. This can be fence posts, railings, chair legs, or anything that is repeated and exactly the same.
Bunch of parts.png
First you need to select them all. You can either alt+right click on each, select them in explorer, use a selection plugin, or drag and select them. I used the latter since there was nothing else I could accidentally select.
Next open up your building plugin.
From here, repeat the above steps, with some minor differences. First write down the size of the parts. Then, when you go to resize them to make the wood grain larger, use the "Resize Center" button. This will resize them from the center of the brick, so resizing by.5, for example, will increase both sides by.25 studs. This helps ensure the center of the brick remains in the same place.
SBS Resize Center.png
For most CmdUtl derivatives, this does it for every brick. Again, make sure your building plugin can do this. Next, you need to rotate them. Again, similar to the default studio steps, only this time use the "Rotate Object" tool. "Rotate Object" will rotate each object in price, while "Rotate Group" and "Rotate Pivot" will rotate the objects as a group, moving most of the bricks.
SBS Rotate Object.png
Then just keep repeating until they are in the correct orientation.
SBS Correct Rotations.png
And then resize them, again resizing from center so they remain in the exact same spot. Once the size is correct, simply change the material and it is done.
SBS Resize Final.png
Even though most people will want to use the Material Flip plugin, mass-fixing 100 or so bricks this way is much quicker than using the Material Flip plugin at times.
Material Flip
Next up is the simplest way. First, install and enable the Material Flip plugin by Stravant. Next open select it in studio and look at a brick in studio with bad wood grain.
Texture Flip Front.png
The click on it and that face will have the material flipped 90 degrees.
Textue Flip Front Result.png
Repeat until all sides are fixed. This usually requires 2 clicks per brick, but sometimes fixing one side will cause the orientation of the brick to change in the way that both sides are fixed at once.
Texture flip side result.png
Seriously, why did I feel the need to do a tutorial on how to use this plugin.
Control Panel
Next up is not a way to fix wood grain, but a way to select it. It is Studio Command Panel, and is a quick way to select multiple bricks. Once you select the bricks you want, you can then rotate and fix them with CmdUtl, whether it is 5 bricks or 5,000 bricks. After you install it, click on it to activate it, select a brick, and press "P". This will open in up the panel.
Control Panel.png
Then just type in a command. For this, I'll be using the "SelectSimilar" command. First up is the "Similar Appearance" selection. It shows up once you type "SelectSimilar". "Similar Appearance" selects any bricks that have a similar color and material to the original brick, in this case the one on the far left. Because one brick is green, it is not selected.
Control Panel Appearance.png
Next up is the "Material" command. This will select all parts with a similar material, so the green one is selected. If you know all the wood in a place is incorrect, you can use this command.
Control Panel Material.png
Next up is color. Like appearance, it selects bricks based on color, but ignores material. In this case, it ignores the green brick again. I find this most useful because you can tag parts in a place you want ignored odd colors, like bright pink or green, and the selection will ignore them if they are good.
Control Panel Color.png
Next is by size. It ignores color and material, and only selects based on size. This is useful since when you go to fix the wood grain with CmdUtl you need the parts to be the same size, but it is not the most useful option.
Control Panel Size.png
The most useful selection tool is all. It only selects parts that are the same size, material, and color. This is the most useful because it can ignore non-wood parts, only select similarly sized parts, like size, which is needed to fix wood grain, and you can tag parts you want ignored with different colors to, well, ignore them.
Control Panel All.png
This plugin is very powerful and can do many things. However, all I use it for is to select stuff, so that is all I have experience with.

 Thank you so much. Now I realize why my wood grain was off and why you keep criticizing the wood grain even though I didn't quite understand what was wrong with it.

Here is a quick tutorial explaining how to assign specific categories to submitted content. For example, you have three categories and three forms. You want the submitted posts for each form to go to its assigned categories. Here is how to make it happen.
Let's say that you have a form for which all submitted posts should be assigned to the category "donuts", which has a category ID of "99". Easy. Just add the following hidden field anywhere in the form:
Change the value "99" to match the category ID that you would like to use and done. Multiple categories work too, just separate multiple IDs with commas, like so:


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

Using "Capture Current State" to Automate Dimensions with iLogic.
iLogic in 2021 introduces the ability to add dimensions to drawings and to capture the state of selected geometry on a drawing view.
In this example I'm going to show you how to create a linear dimension. In the image below I have named some faces (right click on practically any geometry and select "Assign Name"), using the new tools in iLogic, I can now easily place a linear dimension between these 2 faces.
In the drawing environment, simply select the geometry you wish to use and then right click and choose "iLogic" then "Capture Current State".
The information that you need is now copied to your iLogic clipboard.
Note that if you have not already named the geometry, you can still "Capture Current State" from the drawing, you will be prompted by Inventor, letting you know that the underlying geometry is going to be edited.
In a new iLogic, rule, simply paste in the info about the 2 lines from my iLogic clipboard (purple). Note that we have pulled through Face 1 and Face 2.
Next navigate to the new "Drawings" section of the snippets and double click on "Linear Dimension".
Delete the first 3 lines as they are not needed (the are duplicates of the info from our clipboard)
The last line of code looks like this, we need to replace "namedGeometry1" with the information from Face1 and Face2.
Dim linDim1 = genDims.AddLinear("Dimension 1", VIEW1.SheetPoint(0.5, -0.1), namedGeometry1)
If we just put in Face1 we will get something like this, just as if we had chosen Face1 in the interface.
Dim linDim1 = genDims.AddLinear("Dimension 1", VIEW1.SheetPoint(0.5, -0.1), Face1)
If we include Face1 and Face2, we get the following:
Dim linDim1 = genDims.AddLinear("Dimension 1", VIEW1.SheetPoint(0.5, -0.1), Face1, Face2)
Here's the full code that I used to get the linear dimension between Face1 and Face2:
Dim Sheet_1 = ThisDrawing.Sheets.ItemByName("Sheet:1")
Dim VIEW1 = Sheet_1.DrawingViews.ItemByName("VIEW1")
Dim Face2 = VIEW1.GetIntent("Face2")
Dim Face1 = VIEW1.GetIntent("Face1")
Dim genDims = Sheet_1.DrawingDimensions.GeneralDimensions
Dim linDim1 = genDims.AddLinear("Dimension 1", VIEW1.SheetPoint(0.5, -0.1),Face1,Face2)

Bears wounded with an arrow, knife, or firearm may intensify the attack, and killing a bear charging at full speed is difficult at best. If you shoot a bear in self-defense, leave the scene as soon as it is safe, and report the incident to Fish, Wildlife & Parks immediately. … If attacked, use your bear spray.
How big of an animal can an eagle kill?
However, attacks on animals that weigh more than 30 to 40 pounds (14 to 18 kg) are uncommon. Where golden eagles prey on domestic animals, they usually take lambs and kids, but some become persistent predators of domestic livestock as large as 500 pounds (227 kg).

What food kills bears?
The worst offenses are caused by unprocessed chocolate, baker's chocolate and dark chocolate. Unprocessed chocolate and other chocolates used in commercial baking and manufacturing have large amounts of theobromine, but is not palatable because it's very bitter. The bears simply won't eat it.
Do eagles eat cats?
Yes Eagles do eat cats, albeit infrequently. Although eagles are meat eaters they are also carrion eaters. Their preferred dish is fish, followed by other birds and wildfowl.
Why do bears bury their kill?
It is clear from these data that the bears are more likely to bury whole carcasses of animals rather than their remains left after other predators. A brown bear may cover its prey after he had already started to eat it (Matyushkin, 1974), or after burying the carcass, may wait for some time without eating it.

Send Monitoring Alerts To Microsoft Teams
When you have a large monitoring setup you need to know when something important is failing or is just offline. If you have setup Microsoft Teams you can send a message to a channel to let the support team repair the service or device with minimal down time.
I have set this up in Labtech to send alerts to the alerts channel. Labtech has the nice ability to inject data in a powershell script before it is run, but we will be demonstrating the script by running it directly in powershell.
First step is to create a webhook in the MS Teams channel you wish to use. At the time of writing you can only create a webhook from the web version of MS Teams, it will not work in the desktop client.
Open the connectors in the channel you want to use for your alerts.
Open the connectors for the channel
Find the "Incoming Webhook" and add it.
Add the Incoming Webhook
Next we need to name the connector and assign an avatar, these settings will change how the sender of the message appears in the channel. I recommend setting the name to the service that will send the messages, and the image to the systems icon or something that is attention grabbing.
Set the name and image the webhook will use when posting.
Once done you will get a url, save a copy of the URL as it is important to the next step.
Copy the Webhook URL for your connector
The next step is to copy the following script, you can also download it from here
# Powershell MS Teams alert template
# This is a template to demonstrate the ability to send notices to
# Microsoft Teams from PowerShell
# Parse the command variables
param (
 [string]$message = "This is a test of the alert system",
 [string]$title = "Test Message",
 [string]$status = "Cleared",
 [string]$monitor = "Testing - monitor",
 [string]$location = "Downtown",
 [string]$system = "labsys01"
# Edit the URI with the webhook url that was provided
$uri = '';
# Build the message Body
$body = ConvertTo-Json -Depth 4 @{
 title = $title
 text =''
 sections = @(
 activityText = $message
 facts = @(
 name = 'Status'
 value = $status
 name = 'System Name'
 value = $system
 name = 'Monitor'
 value = $monitor
 name = 'Location'
 value = $location
_TAG_ the message to MS Teams
Invoke-RestMethod -uri $uri -Method Post -body $body -ContentType 'application/json';
Write-Output "INFO - Message has been sent.";
You will need to edit the $uri line to have the URL that was provided in the Webhook creation step.
$uri = '';
Once done you can execute the script to see the default alert message. To send your own values to the script you can pass variables when run like the following example.
send-msteams-alert.ps1 -message "System is offline" -title "Offline" -status "Critical" -monitor "Offine Check" -location "Downtown" -system "testLab01"
If everything was done correctly you should have a nice message posted to Microsoft Teams like the following.
Message sent to Microsoft Teams from a Webhook

Exercise chair, England, _PHONE_
Made from mahogany and leather and measuring just over 2 m high, this exercise chair was said to offer the equivalent of riding a horse. Known in the 1800s as a chamber horse, the user sat on the seat and bounced up and down on the concertina springs as if trotting on a horse. Horse riding was considered a form of healthy exercise. Judging by the materials and its size, the chair was probably owned by someone who was wealthy.

Event Listeners
AnyChart charting library supports the possibility to handle Gantt Chart events. In this tutorial we will list all available events, explain when they are dispatched and what data is available in them. There is also some useful information about how to create an event handler and how to use the data coming from AnyGantt.
First, you need to create a listener to handle the specific event. In general Event Listeners Article you can find more information about creating these JavaScript functions.
Event Types
It is important to keep in mind that JavaScript Resource Gantt Chart and JavaScript Project Gantt Chart are almost identical in terms of data hierarchy.
So the information presented below applies to both chart types, except some details. These are events available for Gantt Chart:
Event Description
rowClick Dispatched when mouse click event happened.
rowDblClick Dispatched when mouse double click event happened.
rowMouseMove Dispatched when mouse move event happened.
rowMouseOver Dispatched when mouse over event happened.
rowMouseOut Dispatched when mouse out event happened.
rowMouseDown Dispatched when mouse down event happened.
rowMouseUp Dispatched when mouse up event happened.
rowSelect Dispatched when some row is selected.
rowCollapseExpand Dispatched when an item that contains other items expands or collapses.
All events return all available data about an active row.
To listen an event use the code below:
//choose an event type from table above:
chart.listen(anychart.enums.EventType.ROW_CLICK, function(event) {
var msg = event['item'].get('name');
if (event['period']) msg += '\nPeriod:'+ event['period']['id'];
return msg;
As you can see from the code above, it is possible to get any information about the item from the event - it contains some useful fields. Here is a list of supported types of information:
Event Field Description
.item It is a Data Item that displays the active row.
.hoveredIndex Contains an index of active row.
.period Contains an active period.
.periodIndex Contains an index of active period.
This sample with Project Gantt Chart demonstrates the usage of this feature. Click on a row to change the Chart title:
JsFiddle Playground
Default Events
When you click on a row or move the mouse over the row, there are some default actions take place.
Events are dispatched in the following order on every click:
 1. rowMouseDown
 2. rowMouseUp
 3. rowClick (which is the same as rowMouseDown + rowMouseUp)
 4. rowSelect
Event Type Default Behaviour
rowMouseUp Makes the row selected.
rowClick Makes the row selected (contains rowMouseUp).
rowDBlclick Collapse/expand items.
rowMouseMove Reports the hovered point state.
rowMouseOver Makes the row hovered.
rowMouseOut Unhovers the row.
Prevent Defaults
To prevent these events dispatching you can use the special method.preventDefault().
In this case these events won't be reported by the chart. Let's disable the default behaviour for the clicks. The sample below illustrates this idea.
chart.listen(anychart.enums.EventType.ROW_CLICK, function(e) {

Under a deregulated environment, ancillary services (AS) are defined as the set of products separated from the energy production, which are related to security and reliability of a power system. Ancillary services can be classified in: (a) active power ancillary services (load–frequency control (LFC)—including primary control, automatic generation control (AGC), tertiary control, balancing service and black start provision) and (b) reactive power ancillary services (voltage control). The system operator is the entity responsible for the secure operation of the power system and in this way, the management of all the AS is considered a specific function of the system operator. Under a deregulated framework, ancillary services are separated from the energy production, and can be mandatory or remunerated under market-driven mechanisms. This paper overviews the management of ancillary services in the Spanish power system, including a detailed technical description of the services and the organization of the ancillary services markets. In addition, a comprehensive review of different optimization algorithms and tools used by the agents and system operator within the Spanish electricity business is presented.

Check whether two strings are isomorphic to each other in Python
In this article, we will learn how to check whether the given two strings are isomorphic to each other in Python. Two strings are isomorphic if there is one-to-one mapping possible for every character in string 1 to every character in string2.
Input: string1 = "aaabb"
 string2 = "xxxyy"
Output: True
Explanation: character a to character x and character b maps to character y.
Input: string1 = "aaabb"
 string2 = "zxcvb"
Output: False
Check whether two strings are isomorphic in Python
1. Firstly, check if the length of two strings is equal if not return False.
2. Create a list mark of size 256 to store mark the visited characters in string2, initialize its value to Fasleand a list map to store the mapping of every character from string1 to string 2, initialize its value to -1.
3. Now iterate the string1 from range 0 to length of string
 - Check if the current character of string1 appears for the first time in it.
 - If the current character of the string2 already appeared, then return False.
 - Else, mark the current character of string2 visited and store the mapping of the current character in the map list.
 - Now check if the current character in string1 has already appeared, then check if the previous appearance mapped to the same character of the string, if not return False.
def stringIsomorphic(string1, string2):
 m = len(string1)
 n = len(string2)
 if m!= n:
 return False
 mark = [False] * MAX_CHARS
 map = [-1] * MAX_CHARS
 for i in range(n):
 if map[ord(string1[i])] == -1:
 if mark[ord(string2[i])] == True:
 return False
 mark[ord(string2[i])] = True
 map[ord(string1[i])] = string2[i]
 elif map[ord(string1[i])]!= string2[i]:
 return False
 return True
string1 = input("Enter the string 1: ")
string2 = input("Enter the string 2: ")
print(stringIsomorphic(string1, string2))
Enter the string 1: ccddaa
Enter the string 2: xxyyzz
Enter the string 1: abba
Enter the string 2: asdd

This is a broad question so for simplicity I will use Seal of Fire and Naturalize.
Scenario 1: Common exchangecreating a baseline.
 - Player A uses Naturalize on Seal of Fire
 - Player B Sacrifices SoF in response. SoF is highest on the stack and goes off first.
 - This leaves Naturalize without a valid target.
Scenario 2: Complicated exchangeIs this legal?
 - Player B Sacrifices SoF.
 - In response Player A targets it with Naturalize.
 - SoF is on the stack and it's ability has not resolved. Player B (as above) sacrifices SoF in response to the Naturalize.
Can Seal of Fire be placed back on the stack by re-activating its ability, potentially with a new target?
share|improve this question
2 Answers 2
No, your second example is not possible using the game rules.
Player A cannot target SoF with Naturalize, because it is currently in the graveyard. If they wanted to target the SoF, they need to do so when they had priority. Player A cannot prevent the SoF from being sacrificed for its ability anyway, since the ability exists independently of the source that created it. Seal of Fire says, "Sacrifice Seal of Fire: Seal of Fire deals 2 damage to target creature or player." It is an activate ability whose [Cost] is "Sacrifice Seal of Fire." If Player B paid the cost to activate SoF, it would no longer be on the battlefield by the time the Active Player received priority.
112.3b Activated abilities have a cost and an effect. They are written as "[Cost]: [Effect.] [Activation instructions (if any).]" A player may activate such an ability whenever he or she has priority. Doing so puts it on the stack, where it remains until it's countered, it resolves, or it otherwise leaves the stack. See rule 602, "Activating Activated Abilities."
116.1. Unless a spell or ability is instructing a player to take an action, which player can take actions at any given time is determined by a system of priority. The player with priority may cast spells, activate abilities, and take special actions.
 - It is not possible to sacrifice a permanent twice. After you sacrifice a permanent, it is placed into its owner's graveyard.

I was under the impression that because the ability had not resolved, as it was interrupted by the naturalize, it was placed on the stack before the card reached the graveyard. – Stormchild Mar 3 '12 at 19:29
_USER_ You pay all costs at the time you activate an ability (i.e. put it on the stack). The actions you take as part of paying costs don't use the stack. – Alex P Mar 3 '12 at 20:14
To put Alex's comment another way, the card goes to the graveyard at the same time as the ability is first placed on the stack. There is no opportunity for you or your opponent to do anything between the ability being placed on the stack and the moving of the Seal to the graveyard. The casting of Naturalize happens well after both of those actions. – David Z Mar 4 '12 at 7:46
user1873 is right. Scenario 2 is not legal since the sacrificing is a cost. To try to it clarify further: If Seal of Fire instead did "T: Destroy ~this~ and deal 2 damage to target player" it would still deal 2 damage to the player if you destroyed it before the ability resolved.
112.7a Once activated or triggered, an ability exists on the stack independently of its source. Destruction or removal of the source after that time won't affect the ability. Note that some abilities cause a source to do something (for example, "Prodigal Sorcerer deals 1 damage to target creature or player") rather than the ability doing anything directly. In these cases, any activated or triggered ability that references information about the source because the effect needs to be divided checks that information when the ability is put onto the stack. Otherwise, it will check that information when it resolves. In both instances, if the source is no longer in the zone it's expected to be in at that time, its last known information is used. The source can still perform the action even though it no longer exists.
A common analogy is that of a soldier throwing a grenade at you. Shooting the soldier after he has thrown the grenade won't prevent the grenade from killing you
The only way you can stop it is either counter the ability (Stifle) or prevent it from fulfill other restrictions like destroying mountains for Valakut, the molten pinnacle's land limit.

Australia: the next culinary capital?
A food museum could put Australia firmly on the global food tourist map, but defining our national food culture could be a challenge, according to an Australian tourism expert.
From Sweden's Disgusting Food Museum and the Netherlands' Dutch Cheese Museum to the Philippines' Desert Museum and Spain's Museu de la Xocolata, countries all over the world are increasingly capitalising on the lucrative food traveller market – according to the World Food Travel Association, around 53 percent of holidaymakers are food travellers.
Tourism expert and Edith Cowan University researcher Dr Eerang Park believes that food travel could be a golden opportunity for Australia when international travel resumes post-COVID. However, the first step will be understanding what makes Australia's cuisine unique.
"We need to prepare for beyond the pandemic," Dr Park says. "We can tap into culinary tourism by positioning Australia as a destination of choice for a unique food experience.
"Australia has some incredibly diverse offerings for food tourists, from modern gastronomy to traditional Indigenous cuisine. We should showcase this to Australians and to the world."
More than just pavlova and Vegemite
Dr Park says while Australia is home to some iconic foods – such as Vegemite, Tim Tams and lamingtons – the key to a successful food museum will be in defining our food culture.
"Australia is well-known around the world for its high-quality produce, particularly our fresh food and wine," she says. "But how do we express our food culture and identity while also embracing our vast and diverse heritage and Indigenous history?
"Food tourism is deeper than just a few special dishes – it needs to go beyond the food to the culture and wider experience."
Hungry for knowledge
Dr Park has researched gastronomy travel around the world to understand what attracts holidaymakers. Her latest study explored the motivations of food tourists who visited China's Hangzhou Cuisine Museum, which features lifelike models of dishes from different historical periods, and found that providing an authentic and engaging experience was key.
"Food museum visitors want an immersive experience with the ability to taste and enjoy the food while learning about its origins and history," Dr Park says. "Around the world, we're already seeing a gradual shift in museums from look-but-don't-touch monuments to more interactive places for visitors to explore and learn."
Dr Park believes the opportunity for an Australian food museum is ripe for the picking.
"When the world recovers from the devastating impacts of COVID-19, what better way for people to reconnect, explore and engage than through food?"

A _USER_ is a more flexible way to define a form / wizard. You are supposed to map methods to requests based on requested path / request parameters / request method. So instead of defining a list of views and processing the request based on some required "step" parameter, you can define the steps of your wizard as you wish (also the command object will be handled more transparently). Here's how you can get to emulate a classic AWFC functionality (this is only meant to be an example, there's a lot more you can do).
public class WizardController {
 * The default handler (page=0)
 public String getInitialPage(final ModelMap modelMap) {
 // put your initial command
 modelMap.addAttribute("command", new YourCommandClass());
 // populate the model Map as needed
 return "initialView";
 * First step handler (if you want to map each step individually to a method). You should probably either use this
 * approach or the one below (mapping all pages to the same method and getting the page number as parameter).
 _USER_(params = "_step=1")
 public String processFirstStep(final _USER_("command") YourCommandClass command,
 final Errors errors) {
 // do something with command, errors, request, response,
 // model map or whatever you include among the method
 // parameters. See the documentation for _USER_
 // to get the full picture.
 return "firstStepView";
 * Maybe you want to be provided with the _page parameter (in order to map the same method for all), as you have in
 * AbstractWizardFormController.
 _USER_(method = RequestMethod.POST)
 public String processPage(_USER_("_page") final int currentPage,
 final _USER_("command") YourCommandClass command,
 final HttpServletResponse response) {
 // do something based on page number
 return pageViews[currentPage];
 * The successful finish step ('_finish' request param must be present)
 _USER_(params = "_finish")
 public String processFinish(final _USER_("command") YourCommandClass command,
 final Errors errors,
 final ModelMap modelMap,
 final SessionStatus status) {
 // some stuff
 return "successView";
 _USER_(params = "_cancel")
 public String processCancel(final HttpServletRequest request,
 final HttpServletResponse response,
 final SessionStatus status) {
 return "canceledView";
I tried to vary the method signatures so that you can get an idea about the flexibility I mentioned. Of course, there's a lot more to it: you can make use of request method (GET or POST) in the _USER_, you can define a method annotated with _USER_, etc.
EDIT: I had an unmapped method which I fixed (by the way, you need to make sure you don't have ambiguous mappings -- requests that could be mapped to more than one method -- or unmapped requests -- requests that cannot be mapped to any method). Also have a look at _USER_, _USER_ and _USER_, which are also needed for fully simulating the behaviour of the classic AWFC (I edited the code already to make this clear).
