How to make an egg salad not smell
Eggs can taste delicious if cooked properly to stop the smell.
Jupiterimages/liquidlibrary/Getty Images
An egg salad whether on its own or in a sandwich is easy to make and can taste delicious but the smell can be off-putting. Eggs can produce a sulphuric smell caused by over cooking. These egg proteins can become over coagulated and this creates an excess of hydrogen sulphide, which causes the eggy smell.
Fortunately, there are a few simple steps to prevent this from happening.
Place the eggs in a saucepan of cold water so that they are fully submerged. Add 2 teaspoons of white vinegar and bring the water up to a simmering point. Continue to simmer for 7 minutes. The vinegar will neutralise the odour without affecting the taste of the eggs.
 - Place the eggs in a saucepan of cold water so that they are fully submerged.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and remove the eggs. Submerge the eggs in the bowl of cold water and leave for 2 minutes. The cold water stops eggs from continuing to cook inside their shells and prevents the yolk from turning a dark greyish or green colour. Discoloured yolks are a result of a reaction that increases the sulphur smell.
Peel the eggs to remove the shells. Store the eggs, covered in the fridge until you are ready to make the rest of your salad.
To remove any lingering smells from your kitchen, boil a saucepan of water with 1 teaspoon of vinegar for 5 minutes. Discard the water. The smell of vinegar will disappear quickly.

Teaching and coaching are two different occupational roles, and teachers who also coach have stressful work environments common to all educational settings, but each occupational role has specific stress and burnout problems. The responsibilities of physical education (PE) teachers and coaches are distinguishable from one another. These different roles and role conflicts may create stress among PE teachers who also coach. The history of physical education shows that there are contextual factors that promote PE teacher-coach role conflict. The aim of this paper is to analyse these contextual factors via using a literature review analysis and to provide suggestions about teacher-coach role conflict for school-based physical education in USA.

It takes approximately two and a half 750 milliliter bottles to make a half gallon. To get the number of bottles needed to make half a gallon, the gallon has to be converted to milliliters, divided by 2 to get half of it and then divided by the number 750.
One gallon translates to 3,785.41178 milliliters. This means that 1,892.70589 milliliters make half a gallon. Dividing that value with 750 yields the number 2.523607853. Upon rounding the number to two decimals, the result is 2.52, which represents the number of 750 milliliter bottles that are needed to make half a gallon.


How fast can a Beagle run?
 Beagles have been used for hunting from centuries and the reason behind this is not else than their running speed.Later they were being used for gaming purposes like dog race.They have been developed by breeders to be smaller in size and faster in speed.Running speed of a dog varies dog to dog.It also depends upon the condition,previous training,health and the circumstances in which his running speed is being measured.Beagles are also thought to be bred with Greyhounds to improve their running abilities.Average running speed for a Beagle is considered to be around 25-30 mph or 40-48 km/h.

What is the difference between drupal_get_form() and drupal_retrieve_form()? Can someone explain the difference? I look at the API, but the description seems similar to me.
 - I think one key difference is that drupal_retrieve_form() allows your code to access the updated $form_state as it's passed by reference, however drupal_get_form() just return the $form, not the state. – Felix Eve Apr 7 '16 at 0:32
The difference is that drupal_get_form() handles retrieving, processing, and displaying a rendered HTML form for modules automatically, while drupal_retrieve_form() returns the structured array that defines a form.
Retrieving the form
drupal_get_form() first checks if the form is present in the form cache with form_get_cache(); if it isn't present, it calls drupal_retrieve_form(), and drupal_prepare_form().
Processing the form
drupal_get_form() calls drupal_process_form(), which is the function that calls drupal_validate_form(), and that invokes the submission handlers with form_execute_handlers().
Rendering the form
The rendering is done from drupal_process_form(), which calls form_builder().
In most of the cases, drupal_get_form() is the function to use, such as in the following code.
function node_menu() {
 $items['admin/content'] = array(
 'title' => 'Content',
 'description' => 'Find and manage content.',
 'page callback' => 'drupal_get_form',
 'page arguments' => array('node_admin_content'),
 'access arguments' => array('access content overview'),
 'weight' => -10,
 'file' => 'node.admin.inc',
 // …
 return $items;
The only module I found that is calling drupal_retrieve_form() directly is the Mollom module in mollom_moderate(), which uses it for automatically submitting a form. The code could use drupal_form_submit(), but (as a comment says), "Programmatic form submissions are not able to automatically use the primary form submit button/action, so we need to resemble drupal_form_submit()."
 $form_id = $form_info['delete form'];
 $form_state = form_state_defaults();
 // We assume that all delete confirmation forms take the fully loaded
 // entity as (only) argument.
 $messages[] = "Attempt to load $form_info[entity] entity via entity_load().";
 $entities = entity_load($data->entity, array($data->id));
 $form_state['build_info']['args'][] = $entities[$data->id];
 $form = drupal_retrieve_form($form_id, $form_state);
 $form_state['values'] = array();
 $form_state['values']['mollom']['feedback'] = '';
 // Take over the primary submit button of confirm_form().
 $form_state['values']['op'] = $form['actions']['submit']['_TAG_'];
 $form_state['input'] = $form_state['values'];
 $form_state['programmed'] = TRUE;
 // Programmed forms are always submitted.
 $form_state['submitted'] = TRUE;
 // Reset form validation.
 $form_state['must_validate'] = TRUE;
 drupal_prepare_form($form_id, $form, $form_state);
 drupal_process_form($form_id, $form, $form_state);
 $result = $form_state['executed'];

Downstream users are companies or individuals who use a chemical substance, either on its own or in a mixture, in the course of their industrial or professional activities.
Downstream users have a key role to play in advancing the safe use of chemicals by implementing safe use at their own site and communicating relevant information both to their suppliers and their customers.
Who is a downstream user?
Roles and obligations
Communication in the supply chain
Communication with suppliers
Effective communication between downstream users and suppliers at all stages in the REACH process ensures that relevant information is provided in the supply chain.
Communication with customers
Formulators need to communicate relevant safety information further down the supply chain to their own customers.
Chemical safety assessment
Downstream user chemical safety assessment
Downstream users may choose to carry out a chemical safety assessment if they use a substance outside the conditions described in the exposure scenario provided by the supplier, or if the use is advised against by the supplier.
Downstream user report
Downstream users have to report unsupported uses to ECHA in certain cases.

I have a db and want to know if it contains any spatial tables. Is there a table in SQL Server that holds spatial metadata i.e. a list of all the spatial tables in the current db? Oracle has the user_sdo_geom_metadata, Postgis the geometry_columns. What about SQL Server? The only spatial metadata I found was the sys.spatial_references.

You can always resort to querying the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES and COLUMNS dictionaries to find out if there are tables that are spatially enabled.
share|improve this answer
Further to unicoletti's answer, here is a SQL query that will list spatial tables and their geometry columns:
 from information_schema.columns c join
 information_schema.tables t ON c.TABLE_NAME = t.TABLE_NAME
 AND t.TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' where c.DATA_TYPE = 'geometry'
 order by c.TABLE_SCHEMA, c.TABLE_NAME
If you're looking for geography columns change the geometry to geography in the query.
Also bear in mind a single table can have several spatial columns so it will appear twice in the query.
share|improve this answer
The "appear twice in the query" issue can be solved by removing "c.COLUMN_NAME as COLUMN_NAME" from the query, and changing "select" to "select distinct". Also, to get tables that have either spatial type or both, the WHERE clause would be "WHERE c.data_type IN ('geometry','geography')" – Jonathan Van Matre Dec 16 '11 at 19:50

These Giant Urban Flowers Bloom When Pedestrians Walk Under Them
HQ Architects have designed a set of giant flowers that bloom and react to pedestrians and transportation.
Located in Vallero Square in the heart of Jerusalem in Israel, the flowers have been installed as part of the municipality's effort to improve the urban space.
The four giant flowers, that are 30 feet tall, have been placed in key positions, enabling them to be viewed from all around the square and the nearby market.
Each of the flowers also provide a sense of movement to the square, as they bloom by inflating themselves when pedestrians walk by, but when there are no people, they close.

I'm trying to use Illustrator to recreate a line graph I was given. The problem I'm having is that when I use the graph tool in Illustrator, I can't seem to find any option for increasing the number of divisions on the Y-axis.
This is the original: Line Graph with several Y-labels
And this is what I have so far in Illustrator (I haven't ungrouped it to start the actual design yet): Line graph with too few Y-labels
What I want to do is increase the number of labels on the Y-axis so that they're more similar to the original. I know I can ungroup and manually add the labels, but I'd much rather it be done procedurally to minimize human error.
 - 1
 The toon is extremely basic, it haw no way of doing this. Either use a external app or draw the labels manually. Personally i would use mathematica for this. But i can understand that most people can not afford it. Maybe you could use a script? – joojaa Apr 8 '16 at 7:28
 - yes it is possible I guess with some tricks and hacks. So please if you don't mind please upload the XLS file. I want ti give it a try. – hsawires Apr 8 '16 at 18:02
Yes –
 1. Click on the graph
 2. In the menu bar, navigate to Object \ Graph \ Type...
 3. In the window that pops up, select Value Axis in the drop-down menu
 4. In the area named Tick Values, select Override Calculated Values
 5. Manually set the number of Divisions
Note: Adjusting this setting will reset other customizations you may have made visually to your graph. It's a good idea to get the data portion right before moving on to the design.
Alt/Option click on the graph and select Type (or select the graph, then go Object → Graph → Type).
When this window opens, select the drag down menu for graph options and choose Value axis.
You can then change the range of the values and the number of divisions.

The atmospheric-pressure plasma jets (APPJs) are nonthermal plasma sources studied for their high potential in many medical applications where conventional solutions failed. In this paper, we show the influence of helium APPJ on pepsin structure and function. The APPJ source is characterized using voltage-current measurements, optical emission spectroscopy, and high-speed imaging. Pepsin powder was exposed to the action of the plasma jet, and then, spectroscopic investigations were carried out to obtain information on the structural modifications. Protein function was tested using an enzymatic assay.

Referencing Grid Level Expressions from Advanced Query
Cory Fifield -
Trouble viewing images? Click on images to enlarge.
In this article we cover referencing Grid Level Expressions from Advanced Query.
How does it work?
Expressions are processed at the data grid level, after the query results have been processed and returned from the database. Expressions are then added to the resulting dataset and accessible throughout VDM's controls. If you're using Advanced Query, VDM needs to know where to place the Expressions in the resulting dataset. So you can add an expression to the Grid after you run an Advanced Query, but if they're not added to the Field Selection List in the Advanced Query, VDM doesn't know where to put them.
We don't recommend Grid Level Expressions be used with Advanced Query. We recommend Advanced Queries be used for SQL Scripting only, and additional calculations that need to be performed on the resulting dataset be configured and completed using Calculated Fields in Finished Reports or Visualize.
How to reference grid level expression in Advanced Query
1. Create your Advanced Query and run it.
2. Create the Grid Expressions. Make sure to have the correct datatypes used for the expression.
3. Add the new expression(s) to the select statement in the Advanced Query.
4. Save, run and preview the View with the new expression(s) added to the Advanced Query.

Although many people use the terms interchangeably, there is a significant difference between a nanny and an au pair.
Differences between an au pair and a nanny:
- Au pairs are, by definition, young people from overseas who travel legally to the U.S.to care for children on a cultural exchange visa. Nannies can be anyone employed to care for a child in its own home.
- Nannies can work part-time, full-time or even overtime. Au pairs working conditions are regulated by the U.S. Department of State, so there are rules that must be followed. An au pair can work up to (but no more than) 45 hours a week, 10 hours per day.
- Nanny fees vary widely depending on if they are part-time or full-time, how many children you have, and where you live. The cost of hosting an au pair can be broken down into two main parts: Fees paid to an agency for the program administration and year-round support, and a minimum weekly stipend of $195.75, paid directly to your au pair.
- Some nannies are professionally trained and are in the field as a career. Others become nannies as a temporary way to earn money while they decide on college or other career paths. Au pairs are not professionally trained but many of them have hundreds, even thousands, of hours of experience as babysitters, tutors, kindergarten assistants, camp counselors and sports instructors.
- Nannies are employees. Au pairs are not considered an employee but rather an extended family member. The term au pair means "on par".

Recently, RFID has emerged to be a promising technology to revolutionize the supply chain and logistics management. Currently there exists a sharp contrast between retailers in China and their counterparts in the United States with respect for RFID adoption. In the United States, big retailers like Wal-Mart are actively pursuing RFID by issuing mandates to their suppliers worldwide for RFID adoption. However, retailers in China never enjoy such a dominating role in pursuing RFID. To explore what is behind this phenomenon, in this paper, an analysis framework is proposed to develop decision support tools for RFID technology adoption analysis in retailers in China. The framework is realized in a service platform developed based on three principles to help reach mutual understanding between RFID vendors and customers in RFID technology adoption analysis. The framework is illustrated and validated through an example to demonstrate its feasibility to help to analyze the adoption of RFID technologies retailers in China. The technology analysis service platform integrates various tools enabling interactive and flexible analysis processes to understand how RFID technology can be adopted and used effectively in retailers in China and in logistics and supply chain management.

What is the solid surface wash basin?
The wash basin is one of the indispensable sanitary wares in our living bathroom, because the wash basin is often used in our lives.It also known by other names including sinker, washbowl, hand basin, and wash basin—is a bowl-shaped plumbing fixture used for washing handsdishwashing, and other purposes. There are many material for wash basin,So choose a wash basin that fits the style and good material of the bathroom are very important. lets introduce KKR solid surface material wash basin for you.
Solid surface wash basin may be growing in popularity as people choose them over higher priced sink options. There are six reasons a homeowner may choose a solid surface sink.
Scratch Resistant
While solid surface wash basins can get scratched, the scratches can be removed if they are buffed with a non-abrasive scrubbing pad. Most minor cigarette burns can also be removed with gentle sanding.
Seamless Appearance
KKR wash basin/sinks can have a smooth feeling and may also have a seamless appearance. This smooth texture and the invisible seams can protect small particles like dirt crumbs and bacteria from collecting. The seamless surface can also provide a water-tight seal and can eliminate the need for caulk.
Unlike standard recessed sinks that can increase the likelihood of bacterial growth in the rimmed edges, solid surface sinks may not have these. Their nonporous surface may also have antimicrobial properties that can prevent the growth of mold, mildew and bacteria. This can be especially beneficial when these sinks are used in food preparation areas like kitchens.
Stain Resistant
Accidental spills can happen and when they do, the results can be permanent. The material in a solid surface sink can resist the permanency of these stains. Most marks or stains left from lipstick, marking pens, juice, dyes or makeup can be removed with a non-abrasive scrubbing pad.
Solid surface basins can come in a variety of colors and patterns. Some may have patterns that look like granite and others may have whimsical colors and patterns to match a more eclectic decor. These color patterns can be visible throughout the entire depth of the material, rather than just on the surface, and the material can be made to fit a variety of shapes.
Less Maintenance
In most instances, KKR solid surface basin can be cleaned with soapy water and a non-abrasive cloth.Its very easy to clean.
 In addition, I would like to add that if it is practical and convenient, I think that in terms of material, you should choose the wash basin of solid surface stone. Because the acrylic solid surface stone wash basin is easy to maintain and can be polished repeatedly when Be scratched.

The Bloodstone Lands: Legacies
Every new level (including 1st) each PC adds 3 hero points to their character sheet. These points DO NOT roll over to the next level so use 'em or lose 'em.
Bonus Hero Points can be gained through good roleplay, these bonus points must also be used by the next level or lost.
How to use hero Points:
It's pretty easy. Whenever you roll a D20 you can use a Hero Point to add an additional die to the roll. You must use the Hero Point BEFORE the roll. Once used a Hero Point is gone. One exception to the above rule is for damage. You may use a Hero Point to add or subtract to any damage you roll or take. Again, you must declare the Hero Point used before rolling the damage dice.
Thus Hero Points can be used for all the following rolls: attack, damage, saves and skill checks.
How Much Do Hero Points Add to Your Roll:
Depends on your level:
1-5 = D4
6-10 = D6
11-15 = D8
16-19 = D10
20 = D12


Found a JavaScript assignment on Codewars.com:
The goal of this exercise is to convert a string to a new string where each character in the new string is '(' if that character appears only once in the original string, or ')' if that character appears more than once in the original string. Ignore capitalization when determining if a character is a duplicate.
"din" => "((("
I did the assignment in Java, and came up with below code. I want to know is this the write way to code or is there a better way? If so please let me know.
private static String duplicateEncode(String word) {
 String encodeString = "";
 String decodedString = word.toLowerCase();
 for (int i = 0; i < decodedString.length(); i++) {
 if (decodedString.substring(i + 1, decodedString.length())
 || decodedString.substring(0, i).contains(String.valueOf(decodedString.charAt(i)))) {
 encodeString += ")";
 } else {
 encodeString += "(";
 return encodeString;
First of all, nullbyte is exactly right about the use of a StringBuilder: using a += b for Strings roughly equals new StringBuilder().append(a).append(b).toString() under the hood and thus is a quite expensive operation.
Then, your method to check whether a given charcter exists in the string after a given index is s.substring(i).contains(ch) which again creates a superfluos string object via the substring-call. Instead, simply use s.indexOf(ch, i) to find the next index of ch after the given starting index (returns -1 for "not found").
Additionally, you might consider nullbyte's suggestion to hold the seen-or-not-seen status in a set, which also was my first intuition when reading the exercise. (Right now, you have runtime complexity of O(n^2) which you could reduce to O(n)). You only have to somehow come up with a method to revisit the first character, maybe by not using a set but by usign a map from character to number of occurrences or something like that.
Naming: why decodedString? This is not decoded in any way, this is just lowercase word. I can live with encodeString (or probably better encoded), but decodedString does not look right and does not give the reader any clue about the variable's contents.
public static String encode(String input) {
 input= input.toLowerCase(); //ignoring case
 StringBuilder myNewString = new StringBuilder(); // for holding new String
 for(char ch : input.toCharArray()) {
 if(StringUtils.countMatches(input, ch) > 1){ // more than 1 condition
 }else{ // not repeating chars
I am using StringUtils class from Apache Commons project. So need add this to your import: import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils;
 - 1
 \$\begingroup\$ Same as I already commented at nullbyte's answer. This is not a review. BTW, what is StringUtils? \$\endgroup\$ – mtj Mar 13 '18 at 7:13
 - \$\begingroup\$ oh forgot to mention, StringUtils is an Apache Commons project. Edited my original post and added package. Thanks \$\endgroup\$ – SKV Mar 13 '18 at 7:55
 - \$\begingroup\$ This seems to be a little bit more concise solution than the original one. What's the time complexity of the StringUtils.countMatches() method? It's definitely O(n) which doesn't make it any better. You used a StringBuilder though. \$\endgroup\$ – nullbyte Mar 14 '18 at 0:53
Here's a better solution using a hash map:
 public static String encode(String input) {
 final StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
 final Map indexMap = new HashMap<>();
 char ch = Character.toLowerCase(input.charAt(index));
 if(indexMap.containsKey(ch)) {
 int previous = indexMap.get(ch);
 builder.replace(previous, previous+1, ")");
 }else {
 indexMap.put(ch, index);
 return builder.toString();
It requires O(n) time and O(n) additional space, but it's way faster than yours. Also, try using a StringBuilder if you append strings in a loop.

Weakly non-linear waves in a tapered elastic tube filled with an inviscid fluid
MetadataShow full item record
In the present work, treating the artery as a tapered, thin walled, long and circularly conical prestressed elastic tube and using the longwave approximation, we have studied the propagation of weakly non-linear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube by employing the reductive perturbation method. By considering the blood as an incompressible inviscid fluid, the evolution equation is obtained as the Korteweg-de Vries equation with a variable coefficient. It is shown that this type of equation admits a solitary wave-type solution with variable wave speed. It is observed that, the wave speed decreases with distance for positive tapering while it increases for negative tapering. It is further observed that, the progressive wave profile for expanding tubes (a > 0) becomes more steepened whereas for narrowing tubes (a < 0) it becomes more flattened.


Brisk is one of those delightful words that sounds like what it means: quick, lively, bracing, and refreshing. There's nothing like a brisk walk in the morning to get the blood flowing and the spirit ready for the day.
Anything brisk is happening quickly but not too fast. Probably taken from the French brusque, which also means "quick," but in a more negative way, brisk can be used to describe not only physical actions but also more conceptual notions, such as brisk business around the holidays or brisk interactions at a speed-dating event. The soft-drink called Brisk must be called that for a good reason. Perhaps it picks you up!

BLM Road Numbers - Understanding Township and Range
BLM roads are identified numerically by a legal description based upon a rectangular grid, established from a point in northwest Portland, and spanning the State. From this point, Township grid lines run east and west; Range grid lines run north and south -each six miles apart. The resulting 6-mile squares called Townships are divided into 36 one-mile squares called Sections. Each section is approximately 640 acres.
BLM road signs in the field have three numbers. They identify the Township, Range, and Section from which a road originates. For example:
Numbers after the decimal point indicate another road originating in Section 14.


Coronavirus: Single parents at greater risk of job insecurity as half report poor mental health

Single parents in the UK are at greater risk of job insecurity as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, new research from Gingerbread and the Institute for Employment Studies (IES) has found.
As COVID-19 hit the UK in early 2020 single parents were less financially secure and on lower incomes than other family types, with mothers in coupled households earning almost twice as much per week as single mothers.
Nearly half (46%) of single parents worked in routine occupations compared to 26% of coupled parents. Routine occupations — also classed as semiand unskilled work — in retail, hotels and restaurants have been hit hard by the pandemic with lockdown closures causing many employers to cut hours and jobs.
Single parents are also twice as likely to have a zero hours contract as other family types which puts them at greater risk of job insecurity.
As many roles shifted to working from home during the first national lockdown, only 22% of single parents were able to move to remote working, compared to 35% of coupled parents, creating greater childcare challenges as schools and nurseries closed.

Some 30% of single parents were furloughed under the government's Job Retention scheme (30%) compared to 21% of parents in a partnership, further reflecting single parents' caring responsibilities and highlighting that they are more likely to work in sectors affected by lockdown. It is more likely that these sectors will experience further job losses as businesses in England are hit by the second lockdown, due to last until 2 December.
Single parents were twice as likely to have poor mental health, compared with other family types, both immediately before and in the early stages of the pandemic. Overall 51% of single parents reported having depression, bad nerves or anxiety, compared with 27% of coupled parents.
Single parents reported experienced an 'impossible balancing act', as they struggled with making "constant trade-offs" between their work and caring responsibilities.

Worries about job security, the ability to secure new work, uncertainty around work requirements and formal and informal childcare availability, have made planning for the future impossible for single parents with many respondents feeling that "the unique challenges facing them had not been sufficiently accounted for in policy and guidelines developed."
Single parent charity Gingerbread is calling on the government to do more to support single parents during the coronavirus pandemic. The charity is urging the government to change policy to help single parents to stay in work by allowing them to access the furlough scheme where they need to do so for their caring responsibilities such as when a child needs to isolate.
Gingerbread is also calling on the government to make the Test and Trace Isolation Grant available to parents on low incomes who cannot work when their children are sent home from childcare or school to self-isolate.

Laura Dewar, policy and research at Gingerbread, said: "Single parents have been hit hard by the COVID-19 Crisis. Our research has shown that during the previous Lockdown single parents faced 'an impossible balancing act'. As the sole breadwinner and carer single parents having a job is vital for their family income and the financial security of their children.
"The government must to do more to support single parent families as we start the second lockdown. Single parents must be better supported to stay in work, find new work or re-train."

Understanding Shopify Theme Styles and Presets With settings_data.json
Shopify theme styles and presets with settings_data.json
Building custom presets for Shopify themes can be super useful, especially if your theme might be used by many merchants, and you want to curate their experience when using your theme.
You've most likely landed here because you've been looking to customize the theme settings of your Shopify theme, and stumbled upon two files in the config directory—settings_schema.json and settings_data.json. This article will look at the differences between settings_schema.json and settings_data.json. We'll deep dive into the various uses and nuances of the settings_data.json file.
What are theme settings?
Theme settings—also referred to as theme options—allow a merchant to customize the look and feel of their online store. Theme settings are predetermined by the theme developer who builds the theme. They are built and stored in the config directory inside the settings_schema.json file. Theme settings control the organization and content of the menu in the theme editor.
settings_schema.json vs. settings_data.json
The settings_schema.json file controls the organization and options available to a merchant in the theme editor. It's used to create and edit the theme settings available for a merchant within a theme. The theme settings follow the specified file format outlined by the Shopify documentation.
The settings_data.json file stores the theme settings data saved from the theme editor. It can also include 'theme styles', also known as presets. If presets are defined, it enables a merchant to choose a theme style which is predetermined by a theme developer. The theme style then sets specific values for the keys defined in the settings_schema.json file.
Digging into settings_data.json
So let's take a look at settings_data.json. When viewing the settings_data.json file found inside most free themes from the Shopify Theme Store, you'll notice it's broken up into a two different objects; current and presets.
Shopify theme styles and presets with settings_data.json - current object
As seen above, the current object contains data for the current theme settings. These are the values which are currently set in the theme editor. A theme only ever uses the data stored in current.
Theme styles aka presets
In the Debut theme, the presets object contains data for two different theme styles, Default and Light. These theme styles can be applied using the theme editor.
Because a theme only ever uses the data stored in current, any presets that are applied simply update the values in current to match those of the preset. It's important to note that there are some input values that won't update via theme style. These have to do with specific input types.
Overwriting presentational values with theme styles and preserving content
One really great thing about presets is that Shopify handles some of the logic involved when it comes to updating content.
Imagine you were a merchant, and you spent a bunch of time customizing the content of your website, like updating the logo of your site and changing the images on your homepage. Then you decide you don't like the Default theme and would rather go for the Light version. It would be a terrible experience if a merchant then had to input all of that content again, especially when all they wanted to change is which theme style is being used.
This is where preserving specific input types becomes important. Shopify only overwrites what it deems to be a presentational value with a theme style. Shopify does not overwrite content values with a theme style.
The existing input types include:
These are input types which are whitelisted, considered presentational, and are overwritten when applying a theme style via the theme editor:
The values of these input types will be overwritten by a defined preset, as the Shopify platform considers them presentational. As with anything, depending on how a theme is developed and how someone has built a theme's settings, this will dictate whether or not these items truly contain presentational values. However, most of these input types lend themselves to presentational elements such as a color or font, to show or hide an element, or choose a value in a range for layout displays.
How section data is stored in settings_data.json
When navigating the settings_data.json file, you'll quickly see that you can define a sections object in your presets and that it also appears inside current. This sections object will be generated for you if you have section files, which gives merchants the ability to add Shopify sections to their theme using the theme editor, without pre-defining which sections appear by default for current.
You'll also notice that dynamic sections can have pretty id names if pre-defined in your settings_data.json file initially. However, if you add them dynamically and have the file auto-generate a current object for you, then they'll have automatically generated id's.
Shopify theme styles and presets with settings_data.json - section order
These id's are then stored in a content_for_index array just below, which defines the order. This array inside current is updated anytime a user changes the order using the theme editor. You can also manually adjust the order by moving around these values in the array.
Managing multiple stores with a single theme using presets
I've seen some pretty clever uses of presets over my time working at Shopify. One example of this is using settings_data.json to manage a single custom theme used on multiple stores. The way this is set up is pretty straight forward—each preset defined in the settings_data.json file represents a specific store, all of which are using the same theme.
For example, a single company might have more than one online store because they have subsidiaries or branches that each have their own url and inventory; but the themes of the store are similar. For example, Greenhouse Inc. has three branches: Greenhouse Nurseries, Greenhouse Grocery, and Greenhouse Living. Each of the branches sells different types of products, and has different concerns, customers and URLs—but they all share a common theme.
In cases like this, the presets named in a theme can be for each company branch, for example greenhouse-nurseries, greenhouse-grocery, and greenhouse-living. Then a single theme can be used for all three stores, each with its own preset containing its own theme settings. This file and its theme are tracked by some kind of version control, and that single theme is used for every store. The current object is then mapped to the appropriate preset, which defines a list of settings—maybe a specific color swatch change, different Google Analytics tracking number, etc.
Because settings_schema.json doesn't ever overwrite presets, you can store any information you want in a preset, whether or not it maps directly to a theme setting found in settings_schema.json.
While we're on the subject of URLs, learn what a canonical URL is and why they're important.
Gotchas when tracking changes
One thing to keep in mind when editing or changing the settings_data.json is how you're keeping track of changes to it, and how that works within your existing workflow.
Because this file is updated by the theme editor, I often see that it is listed as untracked in version control; whether it's listed in a.gitignore file, as a file to ignore in a config.yml (Theme Kit), or an.env file (Slate). When it is untracked, the changes you make directly in the file can easily be overwritten by the theme editor, or vice versa, if the changes aren't pulled down from your store and committed/tracked before starting a new feature.
Start thinking about how you can use theme styles and presets
Building themes, especially dynamic ones, can be hard. But creating theme styles with presets for Shopify themes doesn't have to be. It's important to understand the differences between settings_schema.json and settings_data.json file and that theme styles are built using presets.
Be creative with how you use theme styles and presets in your next project; the possibilities are whatever you can imagine and build!

how is that possible? the only way is that you have infinite record which I don't think you have, or that the trigger is calling itself (recursive function) and the number of recursive call is in max_sp_recursion_depth that's not infinite. – jcho360 Jun 1 '12 at 18:56

Got this answer from our DBA.
So, this was not a recursion bug (though the error message was really bad, and looked like one). Rather, it was a memory complexity problem.
Basically, each statement must run in a limited memory space (128K in this case). While most statements fit in far less than this space, it appears that this trigger has considerably greater memory requirements.
The reason that this worked in testing is that the tests attempted were not large enough. (And the testing server likely had more memory allocated to it)
As an example, this worked in testing:
UPDATE users SET name="_EMAIL_" WHERE id=1234;
But what really runs in production is:
update users set full_name='Jason H', attr1='abc1', attr2='abc', attr3='adad'.... where id=1917;
Basically, the java/hibernate system is UPDATEing every single field... for some reason. This is pretty silly, and hibernate probably should be doing less.
The considerably greater complexity of the real query pushed it over the memory limits in production.

Did you know that Hook Grasses can control water loss by folding up their leaves?
Contrary to their common name, Hook Grasses are not grasses but Sedges and they belong to the family Cyperaceae. Sedges are commonly found in wet or poorly drained habitats. Hook Grasses, however, can be found in a much greater diversity of habitats.
In New Zealand, Hook Grasses can grow in costal scrub, forests, swamps, grasslands or herbfields in sub-alpine and alpine habitats.
Although Hook Grasses have colonised drier habitats, water is still important for their survival and they use a very clever system, operated by so-called bulliform cells, to regulate water loss. Bulliform cells are large, bubble-shaped cells found in the upper surface of the leaves. In Hook Grasses these cells are found all along the midrib.
When water availability is low, these cells shrink causing the leaf blade to fold. Each side of the leaf blade, at either side of the midrib, moves towards each other like closing a book. By folding their leaves these sedges reduce the area exposed to sunlight and therefore water loss by evaporation.
This mechanism allows water to be maintained inside the plant. Once water is available again, these cells enlarge and the leaf blade unfolds again.


Definition of:Microdrive
An ultra-miniature hard disk from Hitachi Global Systems. The Microdrive was introduced by IBM in 1998 and acquired by Hitachi in 2002. It contains a single disk platter the size of an American quarter that holds up to 8GB. Using one or two GMR heads, the entire mechanism is built into a Type II CompactFlash form factor.
Size Matters
The tiny elements inside such a small drive offer an advantage. Because the actuator has 50 times less inertia than one used in a larger drive, it can ramp up to full speed in half a second. As a result, the drive can stop spinning when data are not being accessed, which conserves power in handheld devices. See actuator and CompactFlash.

Coloured wax model of a female, half skeletal, half living and dressed in regency clothing, England, _PHONE_
This lady is dressed in Regency clothing typical of the first half of the 1800s. She is skilfully created out of wax. She is half woman, half skeleton. The statue may have been made for one of three reasons: a darkly comic novelty, a 'memento mori' (a reminder of death), or a teaching aid. She is paired with a separate male statue (A78827). These two examples of regency waxwork were exhibited in Montreal, Canada at the International and Universal Exposition in 1967.

The Mathematics of the National Highway Construction Cost Index
This document specifies the methodology which serves as the basis for the development of the National Highway Construction Cost Index, (NHCCI).
General Methodology for Calculating the NHCCI
The Fisher Ideal Index formula is applied using a chain-type indexing methodology to produce the NHCCI. The specific implementation and reasons for choosing this specification are given in this section.
Step 1. Definition of price index
The price index, It, of a specific cost item of highway construction (such as cement) gives the price of that item in period t, (pt), relative term to its price in reference period 0, (p0). The mathematical expression of It is:
Where, c represents the cost of the item and q represents the quantity of the item.
Step 2. Aggregating individual cost items into a total construction cost index
For highway construction as a whole, however, the direct price (p) does not exist because the price is the product of cost divided by quantity and the quantities of highway construction cost items are measured in different units which are not directly comparable and not additive. Therefore, we cannot calculate the price index of highway construction as a whole by directly implementing equation (1).
One natural way to derive the price index of highway construction as a whole is to calculate it as the weighted average of price indexes of individual cost items.
Where, superscript n represent the nth cost item and wn represents the weight assigned to the nth cost item.
Step 3. Choice of index formula
As equation (2) shows, the aggregate price index for highway construction as a whole not only depends on the price indexes of the individual cost items of highway construction, but also depends on the weights assigned to the individual price indexes. Therefore, how to weight the individual price indexes is essential in calculating an aggregate price index, such as the NHCCI. The choice of weights also leads to the choice of index formula.
In the economic index literature, there are three well known index formulas. They are the Laspeyres Index, the Paasche Index and the Fisher Ideal Index. In equation form, they are:
(3) (Laspeyres price index)
(4) (Paasche price index)
(5) (Fisher price index)
All three price index formulas use quantities of individual cost items as weights to their respective prices in calculating the aggregate price index. However, the Laspeyres price index formula uses quantities of the base period (0) as weights, while the Paasche price index formula uses quantities of the current period (t) as weights. The Fisher price index is a geometric mean of the Laspeyres price index and the Paasche price index.
Despite its many obvious advantages, the Laspeyres price index has its limitations. One of the limitations is that it usually overstates the impact of price increases and understates the impact of price decreases as the current period moves further away from the base period. This occurs because of the substitution effect when prices change in relative terms. Agents substitute away from goods whose relative prices increase so that the base year weights overstate the relative importance of these goods in the budget. As a result, the use of quantities from an earlier period as weights systematically biases the aggregate price index upward from the real change in aggregate price. In contrast, an aggregate price index derived from the Paasche price index formula is usually biased downward due to the substitution effect.
A second limitation of the Laspeyres index as it is often implemented is that as time goes on the fixed base year become less relevant to the current year or the year(s) of concern. However, if the base year is shifted forward in time, the entire index series will be changed. In other words, history will be rewritten every time the base year is changed.
The Fisher Ideal index, proposed by Irving Fisher in 1922, is one of the superlative indexes that give good approximations to the theoretical or "exact" cost-of-living index and yet are relatively simple to compute and use. Compared to fixed-weighted Laspeyres or Paasche Indexes, Fisher Ideal index takes the weights of both the base period and the current period into account. By doing so, Fisher Ideal index has the ability to accommodate the effects of substitutions, something the Laspeyres and Paasche indexes do not do. A major advantage of Fisher Ideal index over other superlative indexes, such as the Tornquvist index, is its "dual" property, i.e. a Fisher Ideal price index implies a Fisher Ideal quantity index, and vice versa. In other words, the product of a Fisher Ideal price index between two periods and a Fisher Ideal quantity index between the same two periods is equal to the total change in value (measured in current dollars) between those two periods.
All these advantages strongly suggest that the Fisher Ideal index formula is an excellent choice for building the NHCCI.
Step 4. Calculating aggregate price index for two adjacent periods
Since the OSI Bid-Tabs database provides data on bid value and bid quantity and estimated bid price data for each cost item of highway constructions in the United States, we can apply the Fisher Ideal Index formula to the bid quantity and estimated bid price data from Bid-Tabs data at the cost item (or Pay Item) level to calculate the NHCCI.
However, each time when the Fisher Ideal Index formula is applied to the price and quantity data, one and only one index number will be generated for the two time periods the data represent. In other words, the formula will not generate a price index series at once. The time period can be a month, a quarter, or a year and is usually determined by the data availability. An index number can be generated between any two periods in time. The two periods can be adjacent to each other. They also can be far away from each other with many periods between them. However, in order to build an index that accurately track price changes from one period to the next over time, it will be necessary to generate an index number for every pair of adjacent periods of the entire time period for which an index is build.
Step 5. Chain index numbers of adjacent periods into a time series of indexes
From the equations, we can see that the R1 is the index number of period (1) relative to period (0); R2 is the index number of period (2) relative to period (1); and Rt is the index number of period (t) relative to period (t-1); and that each index number presents the aggregate price of the current period in relative term to the aggregate price of the previous period. Mathematicians call this kind of indexing relative indexing. In relative indexing, an index number highlights the change in price from the adjacent previous period.
However, to show price changes over time, it will be more effective to compare the price of each period to the price of the base period. When an index is calculated by comparing the concerned period directly to the base period, it is called "direct indexing". The procedure of direct indexing is a dual process. That is, while the price of the concerned period is indexed in terms relative to the price of the base period, the price of the base period is also indexed to 1 and only 1. Therefore, the value of a direct index is always in terms relative to 1 and equal to the change between the two periods. This property provides the mathematical underpinning for the "chain" index procedure.
When the price of the base period (0) is indexed to 1, the chained index numbers, I1 for period (1), I2 for period (2), …, and It for period (t), can be calculated as:
In words, the chained index number of any period (to the base period) can be calculated as the product of the consecutive multiplication of the changes of the adjacent periods between the base period and that period. For example, with the chain-type procedure and annual rates of changes (Rt), the index of year 1995 to year 1990 (I90,95) can be calculated as:
In summary, the Chained Fisher Ideal Index method for building the NHCCI contains two steps. In the first step, Fisher Ideal Index formula is used to calculate changes in aggregate price between adjacent periods with bid quantity and estimated bid price data at the cost item (or Pay Item) level from Oman Bid-Tabs database as inputs. This step is also an aggregation process. Changes in aggregate price of highway construction as a whole calculated in this way are essentially the averages of quantity weighted changes in the prices of the cost items of highway construction. In the second step, changes in aggregate price between adjacent periods are chained together through consecutive multiplication to form a time series of aggregate price index for highway construction as a whole.
The Chained Fisher Ideal Index method recognizes the need for estimating changes in the aggregate price of highway construction as a whole to use weights that are relevant and appropriate for the specific periods being measured. The Chained Fisher Ideal Index method has three important advantages over Fixed-Weighted Indexes. First, while it makes aggregation of price changes in many and different cost items into one measure through weighting, it captures the effects of changes in the relative importance of different cost items in highway construction over time. Second, it minimizes substitution bias and, at the same time, provides a more accurate track of price changes in highway construction cost items as a whole. Third, it eliminates the inconvenience and confusion associated with Fixed-Weighted Indexes of updating the weights and base periods, and thus rewriting economic history, as base periods move further and further into the past and become more and more irrelevant

How do Georgians depend on forests?
A Forest Landscape Restoration project in three pilot areas in Georgia reveals that villages in higher altitude tend to depend more on forest products. The project was started in January 2012 by IUCN and is funded by the German International Cooperation, GIZ.
In Georgia, forest land occupies just over three million hectares which is about 40% of the country's territory. Forests play an essential role in the economic and social life of the country. People depend on their surrounding resources for subsistence aspects of their daily life – for food, water, fuel, building materials such as timber for house-building, and so on. Many economic activities are also based on natural resources.
One of the purposes of the Forest Landscape Restoration project by IUCN is to define the level and scope of human dependency on forests and identify and evaluate the factors which influence the relationship between people and their natural resource base.
In Georgia, the project is implemented through field surveys among the local population. The pilot sites were selected based on previous work in the framework of the ENPI FLEG Programme by IUCN, as well as based on their specific characteristics. Field surveys were carried out in three regions: Village Jebota (Tianeti Municipality), Village Zemo Alvani (Akhmeta Municipality) and Village Tsagveri (Borjomi Municipality). 140 households were interviewed to identify various models and scales of dependency of local population on forest resources.
The field survey revealed the following usage of forest resources by local people:
- The villages located in the low land area, with relatively mild climate and availability of diverse agricultural products are less dependent on forest resources.
- The villages located on a higher altitude, with less arable land and less favorable climatic conditions are more dependent on forest resources.
The dependency on forest resources includes intensive usage of timber forest resources mainly as fire-wood and usage of non-timber forest resources, but in relatively low scales. Natural gas as an alternative energy supply is available in two (out of three) pilot villages, but due to high cost it is used only for cooking.
The main source for heating remains fire-wood.
The final reports for all three pilot sites will soon be available.

The data from the Q Sensor is stored in a.csv file and can be converted to a MindWare (.mw) file using the ASCII-MW converter, a tool available in all MindWare analysis applications and BioLab.
First, launch the ASCII-MW converter and select the file containing the Q Sensor data.
From the file header, we can see that the data has been sampled at 32 Hz and that data is stored in units appropriate for each measure. Accelerometer data is stored in g, temperature is stored in degrees Celsius, and skin conductance is stored in microsiemens (uS). These channels will need to be scaled to values between -5 and 5 volts for storage in the MindWare file. Set up the ASCII-MW converter as follows:
File Header
Channels 1-16
Press OK to complete the conversion. You will need to re-apply the scaling in the analysis applications to view the data in proper units. For example, in the EDA analysis application, you will need to set the uS/volt setting to the scale factor of 20 used in the ASCII-MW converter. Also, since the sample rate is 32 Hz, be sure to set the Block Size on the Rolling Filter to an appropriate value (when applicable).

The Invisible Plane was Wonder Woman's primary mode of transportation for long distance travel.
Wonder Woman's first plane was a product of the Lansinarian Morphing Disk, gifted to her by the Lansinarians. The subterranean technology could transform into a number of transparent items, and both Diana and Hippolyta used it to create a plane during their tenures as Wonder Woman. The disc eventually lost sentience, and was locked in plane shape. It was, however, nonfunctioning.

How to add new row on top instead of defaulted to bottom, in slickgrid dataview impelmentation also it is appreciated someone provide example of deleting a row.
share|improve this question
2 Answers 2
Here is an example function that will work with the example 1-simple.html example..
To Add a Row at the top:
 function addRow(){
 var newRow = {title: "new Title", duration: "1 day"};
 var rowData = grid.getData();
 rowData.splice(0, 0, newRow);
 grid.scrollRowIntoView(0, false);
To Delete row, it is the same idea. Get the grid data collection/ slice the array to get the data out of you want to delete and then call setData and render...
share|improve this answer
Sometimes Splice doesn't work. Try the code below:
DataView.insertItem(insertBefore, item) ///Here insertBefore can be 0
function addRow() {
 var newRow = columns,
 newId = dataView.getLength();
 newRow.id = newId + 1;
 dataView.insertItem(0, newRow);
and then you can call this function on button click. This really works. I have tried it myself.

Castle Arch (1.0 miles – unmarked)
Castle Arch
SUMMARY: An average hike to a large unmarked arch. This description involves a stream crossing without a bridge (1 crossing in each direction.) There are better arches in the gorge, but Castle Arch is probably one of the larger arches after Natural Bridge and Sky Bridge, it is definitely one of the larger 10 arches in Red River gorge. My primary disappointment is Castle Arches' close proximity to nearby roads. It is essential to bring a compass and a good map and know how to use them.
RATING: Moderate Hike (about 1.0 miles) The distance is short on this hike, but the entire trail is unmarked. This hike uses unmarked trails and some people have trouble navigating the hike.
Castle Arch
 4. Take the 1st right onto KY-715 N. (5.4 miles)
 5. Park in unmarked parking area on right side (approximately 0.5 miles after Sky Bridge Recreation Area road,) and immediately after another parking area on the left side.
 1. From the pull off where you parked follow the unmarked trail on the same side of the road as it descends to the river. It begins on the right side of the parking area as you are looking at the river (0.1 miles)
 2. Find a place to cross the river ASAP and cross. There is no bridge and good water shoes make the crossing easier.
 3. After crossing the river immediately begin heading up the hill in a line perpendicular to the river. There are many unmarked trails, and following one of them will make the journey easier. (0.3 miles)
 4. At the top of the hill your goal is to come out below a rocky ridge line which means you are most likely below the ridge with Castle Arch. To get to Castle Arch, go around the ridge line to your left. (0.1 miles) There are atleast 2 ways around the ridge to your left. Eventually you will be on the back side of the arch in a little area below the arch and must walk up the last 100 feet or so to get underneath of the arch. Once underneath of Castle Arch you can pass through the arch and around to your right where you can scramble up on top of Castle Arch for better views.
 5. Return to parking area on the unmarked trails (0.5 miles)

Search API Connector Documentation
Import Coinbase Data to Google Sheets
In this guide, we'll walk through how to pull cryptocurrency market data from the Coinbase Digital Currency API directly into Google Sheets, using the API Connector add-on for Sheets.
Coinbase doesn't provide that much data via these endpoints (other crypto APIs are generally better in that respect), but it is easy to use and useful for getting a comprehensive list of exchange rates in one go.
This article also includes a template to access private account data.
- Before You Begin
- Part 1: Create your API Request URL
- Part 2: Pull Coinbase API Data into Sheets
- Part 3: More Example Coinbase API URLs
- Part 4: Get Private Coinbase Account Data
- Part 5: API Documentation
Before You Begin
Click here to install the API Connector add-on from the Google Marketplace.
Part 1: Create Your Coinbase API Request URL
We'll first access the latest exchange rate data for Bitcoin.
- API root: _URL_
- Endpoint: /v2/exchange-rates
- Query String:?symbol=BTC
Putting it together, we get the full API Request URL:
Part 2: Pull Coinbase API Data into Sheets
Now let's get that data into Sheets.
- Open up Google Sheets and click Extensions > API Connector > Open.
- In the Create tab, enter the API URL we just created.
- Leave the OAuth and Headers sections empty. The market data part of the Coinbase API is public, so we don't need any headers or other authentication.
- Create a new tab, and click Set current to use that tab as your data destination.
- Name your request, and click Run. A moment later you'll see the latest exchange rate data for Bitcoin appear in your Google Sheet:
- If you'd like to see the data in columns instead of rows, create a second sheet and include the Sheets function
- If you only need some of those exchange rates, hit Edit Fields before running your request, and select just the fields you want to see in your sheet.
Part 3: More Example API URLs
Experiment with endpoints and query strings as described in the documentation to see other types of currency and crypto data from the API. For example, you can try the following URLs, one at a time (substitute in other currency symbols or dates, if you like).
- list of all currencies and corresponding symbols
- current spot price of any currency pair (the spot price is usually between the buy and sell price)
- historical price snapshot of currency pair at a specified date
Part 4: Get Private Coinbase Account Data
The above endpoints deal with public market data from the Coinbase API.
If you are instead a Coinbase customer looking to get API data from your own account, they require a more complex authentication process that includes generating a "signature".
To access your private account data, please copy this sheet and follow the instructions within.
Part 5: API Documentation

Time Zones Give an Advantage to West Coast Sports Teams
A new study could make some east coast sports teams consider moving west. The research, conducted in Canada, found that NFL, NBA and NHL teams traveling from west to east had a higher winning percentage compared to teams traveling in the opposite direction.
The results of this study highlight the importance of the direction of the circadian disadvantage on the probability of success.
"These results highlight the importance of circadian rhythms in sport performance. They also raise concerns about well-established practices such as early training sessions and late-night athletic competitions and the possible negative effects on performance and health," said co-author, Geneviève Forest, PhD, Université du Québec en Outaouais (UQO). "These results show that the effect of the circadian disadvantage transcends the type of sport being played and needs to be addressed for greater equity among the western and eastern teams in professional sports."
The study reviewed the past 5 years of regular season games in the NBA, NFL and NHL and noted the winning percentage of the visiting team depending on the direction of travel (east vs same time zone vs west), and the number of time zones crossed for every game. T-tests and ANOVAs were performed to study the effect of the circadian disadvantage and its direction on winning percentage.

LockState ResortLock 1-Wire Reader
The LockState ResortLock 1-Wire iButton Reader is a special wire device meant to help ResortLock users program their locks. The wire, which is actually an iButton reader, facilitates the transfer of data programmed through the PC into the iButton which can then be used to transmit information to your installed ResortLocks on any door.
The 1-Wire cable plugs conveniently into the USB port, so it's compatible to all computers. Once plugged in, the computer will automatically set up the drivers for the device. These drivers, however, can also be downloaded from ResortLock's website. Use a computer that has the ResortLock application software installed and from there you can program a
number of things, such as:
- New Entry Codes
- Daylight Savings Mode
- Set Light to Blink
- Classroom or storehouse modes
Once the information has been issued to the iButton, the information can then be relayed by touching the button onto the front of the lock, making sure to press the reset button on the locks first. If done properly, a beeping sound will be heard and all the date, time, codes, and other settings would have been set.
Conversely, the 1-Wire reader is used to register the serial numbers of multiple locks to your computer, allowing you to program different locks with ease.

How to Export Your Mozilla Firefox History as a Dataframe in R
The goal of this post is to export a Mozilla Firefox Browser history and import in R as a dataframe.
Browser history data
Firefox saves your browsing history in a file called places.sqlite. This file contains several tables, like bookmarks, favicons or the history.
To get a dataframe with visited websites, you need two tables from the sqlite file:
 1. moz_historyvisits: it contains all websites you visited with time and date. All websites have an id instead of a readable URL.
 2. moz_places: it contains the translation of the websites id and its actual URL.
More on the database schema:
Import the data into R
sqlite files can be imported with the package RSQLite.
First, find the places.sqlite on your computer. You can get the path, by visiting about:support in Firefox and looking for the Profiles directory.
# connect to database
 dbname = "path/to/places.sqlite",
# get all tables
tables <- dbListTables(con)
# remove internal tables
tables <- tables[tables!= "sqlite_sequence"]
# create a list of dataframes
list_of_df <- purrr::map(tables, ~{
 dbGetQuery(conn = con, statement=paste0("SELECT * FROM '",.x, "'"))
# get the list of dataframes some names
names(list_of_df) <- tables
Extract browser history
Next, we extract the two tables with the information we need, join them and keep only the visited url, the time and the URL id.
There are two caveats:
 1. The timestamps are saved in the PRTime format, which is basically an unix timestamp and you have to convert it in a human-readable format
 2. Extract the domain of a URL using the urltools package, e.g. getting instead of
# get the two dataframes
history <- list_of_df[["moz_historyvisits"]]
urls <- list_of_df[["moz_places"]]
df <- left_join(history, urls, by = c("place_id" = "id")) %>%
 select(place_id, url, visit_date) %>%
 # convert the unix timestamp
 mutate(date = as.POSIXct(as.numeric(visit_date)/_PHONE_, origin = '1970-01-01', tz = 'GMT'),
 # extract the domains from the URL, e.g. '' instead of ''
 domain = str_remove(urltools::domain(url), "www\\."))

Thank you for this interesting post.
Minor comment: For the very last command to execute, I had to load two more packages.
Package dplyr is needed for the command mutate.
Package stringr is needed for the command str_remove.

Primary indicators () show you in a person or company record in Daylite which address data (phone number, e-mail address or postal address) is used by default, for example when you call a contact, send an e-mail or create an estimate in Daylite.
The primary indicators can be found for the address, email, and phone numbers of contacts and are divided into three levels:
= Entry is primary
= Entry is secondary (only possible for telephone numbers)
= Entry is not primary or secondary for telephone numbers
Set addresses as primary
For setting a postal address or e-mail address of a person or company data record as primary, click on the grey star. The selected address will now be saved as the primary address used and will be displayed first.
There are two ways to set primary phone numbers:
1. set secondary number primary
Click on the star next to the secondary phone number to set it to primary. The primary phone number is now saved as the secondary phone number.
2. set other number primary
For phone numbers that are not secondary you have the possibility to set them to primary or secondary after clicking on the star.
Disable primary counters
You can deactivate the function of the primary indicators via the Daylite menu bar -> Plugins -> PluginCenter -> Hide Primary Indicators in Edit Card. Afterwards you have to restart Daylite once to make the changes visible.
Take a look at this article to learn how to set addresses and phone numbers as primary:
