Instances of Set and ImmutableSet both provide the following operations:
||cardinality of set s|
||test x for membership in s|
||test x for non-membership in s|
||test whether every element in s is in t|
||test whether every element in t is in s|
||s | t||new set with elements from both s and t|
||s & t||new set with elements common to s and t|
||s - t||new set with elements in s but not in t|
||s ^ t||new set with elements in either s or t but not both|
||new set with a shallow copy of s|
Note, the non-operator versions of union(),
intersection(), difference(), and
symmetric_difference() will accept any iterable as an argument.
In contrast, their operator based counterparts require their arguments to
be sets. This precludes error-prone constructions like
Set('abc') & 'cbs' in favor of the more readable
Changed in version 2.3.1:
Formerly all arguments were required to be sets.
In addition, both Set and ImmutableSet support set to set comparisons. Two sets are equal if and only if every element of each set is contained in the other (each is a subset of the other). A set is less than another set if and only if the first set is a proper subset of the second set (is a subset, but is not equal). A set is greater than another set if and only if the first set is a proper superset of the second set (is a superset, but is not equal).
The subset and equality comparisons do not generalize to a complete
ordering function. For example, any two disjoint sets are not equal and
are not subsets of each other, so all of the following return
Accordingly, sets do not implement the __cmp__ method.
Since sets only define partial ordering (subset relationships), the output of the list.sort() method is undefined for lists of sets.
The following table lists operations available in ImmutableSet but not found in Set:
||returns a hash value for s|
The following table lists operations available in Set but not found in ImmutableSet:
||s |= t||return set s with elements added from t|
||s &= t||return set s keeping only elements also found in t|
||s -= t||return set s after removing elements found in t|
||s ^= t||return set s with elements from s or t but not both|
||add element x to set s|
||remove x from set s; raises KeyError if not present|
||removes x from set s if present|
||remove and return an arbitrary element from s; raises KeyError if empty|
||remove all elements from set s|
Note, the non-operator versions of update(), intersection_update(), difference_update(), and symmetric_difference_update() will accept any iterable as an argument. Changed in version 2.3.1: Formerly all arguments were required to be sets.
Also note, the module also includes a union_update() method which is an alias for update(). The method is included for backwards compatibility. Programmers should prefer the update() method because it is supported by the builtin set() and frozenset() types.

'Hairy Ball Theorem' (Topology)
1. "You can't comb the hairs on a coconut."
2. "There exists a calm point on earth where there is no wind."
Both 1 & 2 are 'Hairy Ball Theorem'.
If we have a ball with hairs sticking out from each point on it, then impossible to comb the hairs flat with a continuous movement without leaving at least one hair sticking up vertically (typically, at the center of a swirl). Not applicable to doughnut.
=> Wind pattern:
Ball = Earth
Combed down hairs = wind
Length of hairs = wind's force
=> there must be a place on Earth where there is no wind at all.

A NATIVE AMERICAN MEDICINE MAN'S THERAPEUTIC TREATMENT
The Wonder Bracelet™ is a sterling silver and copper bracelet used by Native Americans since the 1700s as a therapeutic treatment to cure human illness and speed the healing of injuries.
The Wonder Bracelet™ has helped speed recovery from many kinds of human ailments such as:
- Back Problems
- Sore and Injured Legs
- Carpal Tunnel
- Irregular Heartbeat
- Sports Injuries
- And Many More
What is the Difference between the Wonder Bracelet™ and other copper bracelets?
Native Americans believe that copper was introduced to them by the Spirit World of Medicine through songs, fibers, herbs and ceremonies. It was used to treat many human illnesses before the advent of modern medicine. The makers of the Wonder Bracelet™ understand the theory and uses of copper and sterling silver. Only they know the right (and wrong) ways to combine these metals to conjure the greatest healing powers. It is common knowledge that copper helps arthritis but the American Indian Medicine Men know that, if used properly, it can do so much more.
All of our bracelets are hand made by skilled Native American artisans from the Dene Navajo tribe. Therefore, each bracelet is unique but every bracelet works the same.

Definition of a Directory
The keyword for a directory definition is Directory. A global ID of a directory should begin with gid_Dir. Directories have to be assigned to modules in the definition block of the module. If a directory is not assigned to any module, it is automatically assigned to the root module by the scplinker. A typical definition of a directory in the scp projects looks like:
Directory gid_Dir_Autotext
ParentID = gid_Dir_Share;
DosName = "autotext";
Directory gid_Dir_Share_Autocorr
ParentID = gid_Dir_Share;
DosName = "autocorr";
Styles = (CREATE);
As you can see, the definition of a directory is very simple. A directory has a name (DosName) and a parent. Every directory has a parent, resulting in a directory tree. For the most directories, the ParentID is a global ID, which is defined in the script before. Some directories of course have to be defined by the setup. The most important is the directory:
which is for example used in the definition:
Directory gid_Dir_Program
DosName = "program";
The directory program is created below the Office installation root. And this is described by the PREDEFINED_PROGDIR, which has to be found by the setup. By the way, the PREDEFINED_PROGDIR is defined by the user, during the installation process.
Further predefined directories are:
PREDEFINED_HOMEDIR : The user's home directory
PREDEFINED_CONFIGDIR: The system's configuration directory
PREDEFINED_OSSHELLNEWDIR: The shellnew directory for Windows
PREDEFINED_OSSYSTEMFONTDIR: The system font directory
A directory is created, if it is necessary to create it. This means: For example we take a file gid_File_A, that belongs to gid_Module_B, and has to be installed into directory gid_Dir_C. If the module is selected in the user defined installation, the file has to be installed. Then it is necessary for the setup, to create the directory gid_Dir_C. If the module is not selected, the file has not to be installed and, if there is no other file in gid_Dir_C, this gid_Dir_C must no be created.
Some directories have to be created empty. As in the example above the directory gid_Dir_Share_Autocorr has the flag CREATE. This flag means, that the directory shall be created, even though there is no file in it.

An advanced analytics optimization application for reviewing grant applications developed for funding competitions conducted by a leading Health Research institute
Client: The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) is Canada's premier federal agency for health research. CIHR operates with a mission to create scientific awareness, knowledge translation and effective health care products and services for the Canadian healthcare system.
Challenge: CIHR conducts research funding competitions multiple times a year. During the competition, the management of research papers, its assignment to the right reviewers and paper re-assessment was being carried out manually. CIHR needed consultancy services to automate these processes for assistance in getting optimized results with no room for errors. A tool was required to design and build a flexible advanced analytics model for grant application reviewer assignments. SSI performed a detailed analysis of the challenge and proposed a dual-phase mathematical model as a solution for the funding competition delivery process.
Solution: SSI developed an application for the optimization of CIHR's grant application reviewer assignment. The model consisted of two phases:
- The first phase involved the assignment of applications to the right reviewers based on their competency and ability to state conflicts and reviews.
- The second phase involved the re-assignment of these applications to the right individuals for peer-reviews after the reviews (and comments) from the first-phase responses were received.
The following rules were applied to the model to resolve constraints identified before the automation of the whole process.
- English applications have to be reviewed by English reviewers and French applications have to be assigned to reviewers with the ability to review in French.
- Reviewers are excluded based on the defined criteria (for example, reviewers cannot be assigned to their own application)
- Assignments are not granted where the minimum suitability threshold is not met.
- The number of reviewers assigned to each application has to be greater than, equal to, or lesser than the associated minimum or maximum input respectively.
- The number of applications assigned to each reviewer has to be greater than, equal to or lesser than the associated minimum or maximum inputs respectively.
Implementation of these rules did not only resolve the constraints but also helped in managing the whole assignment process more efficiently and effectively.
Result: With the introduction of an application with a scoring model that took into account, multiple limitations and variables allowed CIHR to make its research funding process efficient, accurate and transparent. It allowed the CIHR team to reduce the number of man-hours needed to manage each funding project.

Reflecting on peace practice II
Venue and dates: Barcelona – From 10 to 14 October, 2016
Reflecting on peace practice (RPP) II Training course systems approaches in peacebuilding
Reflecting on Peace Practice (RPP) II is an intensive 5-day advanced course focused on systems approaches to conflict analysis and peacebuilding strategy. This includes an introduction to systems thinking, practicing conflict analysis from a systems perspective, identifying points of leverage to create change in a conflict system, and entry points for programmatic strategies for intervention.
The workshop is very interactive, with many opportunities to practice the application of RPP tools from a systems point of view.
This course will address the following questions:
- Why is a systemic approach to conflict analysis and peacebuilding strategy design important?
- What should we work on to have the most impact on peace and conflict in a given context?
- What are points of leverage in the given situation? How can we best intervene in a conflict system?
- With whom should we work? Which actors and stakeholders are most important?
- What is the rationale for our chosen approach – and is it valid in the context?
Participants will be better prepared to:
1. Apply systems approaches and tools in conflict analysis processes.
2. Develop leverage points for change and entry points for programming based on systems analysis.
3. Obtain confidence in using systems approaches to conflict analysis and peacebuilding strategy and program design in support of peers and partners.

Reducing labor through streamlining production - EHPEA
Reducing labor through streamlining production
Spring is in full swing in Michigan greenhouses. Growers are busy receiving young plants and shipping others to markets that have opened due to the recent warm weather. Recruiting and maintaining sufficient labor remains a major challenge in the greenhouse industry as the unemployment rate in Michigan is around 4 percent. More greenhouses than ever are using the H2A guest worker program, while others are considering the program in the future. In visiting with growers through the winter months, the Michigan State University Extension floriculture team has seen growers using a variety of strategies from high-tech equipment to streamlining their product lines for greater efficiency. Here are some of the strategies that growers are using to reduce labor costs at their facilities.
Direct sticking plant material into finished containers
A common practice among the greenhouse industry is to germinate seedlings and root vegetative cuttings in plug or liner trays. This production practice maximizes greenhouse space and increases efficiency. However, many greenhouse operations are opting to reduce the number of times that each plug (seedling), rooted cutting (liner) or container is handled thereby reducing labor costs. Therefore, growers have started to direct unrooted or callused cuttings into their final containers.
Reducing number of skews by transplanting into final decorative container
In contrast to many European plant growers, American ornamental plant growers are expected to produce hundreds (or even thousands) of species or cultivars so that they can become a one-stop shop for a plant retailer. While most growers in Michigan are still producing many plant species and cultivars, they have streamlined their efficiency by limiting the types, styles or sizes of containers. One Michigan grower who markets their plants in elaborate, decorative pottery or other unique containers has streamlined production by growing succulents in all 4-inch pots, which will be directly placed into the decorative container prior to shipment. Therefore, the high-value container is less likely to become damaged or show signs of wear and tear during production and it increases the efficiency.
Allowing for drop-in containers
Greenhouse growers who produce larger combination planters or bowls have started implementing place-holder containers. This allows growers to produce plants that have different environmental and cultural requirements or schedules in separate containers outside of the combination planter and then transplanted into the final combination planter as needed. For instance, growers plant the outer plants, e.g., "fillers and spillers" then place an empty container in the center for the "thriller" thereby reducing labor when transplanting the central plant. When the central plants arrive, which may be a tropical foliage plant produced outside Michigan or are finished in the other growing conditions, the growers remove the place-holding container and transplant the center plants.
Chemical pinching
Greenhouse growers use plant growth regulators to chemically pinch plants. Spraying, drenching or sprenching reduces the need for hand pinching plants. Pinching off the apical meristem increases lateral branching and therefore enhancing the overall quality of the plants.
Using conveyor belts
Conveyor belts are used especially during sticking of unrooted vegetative cutting, transplanting of plugs or liners or during times to streamline plant material out into the growing areas, thus increasing the efficiency of production. Growers have also implemented conveyor belts in some facilities and ease the movement throughout the facility and reduce the number of staff needed to complete a task.
Boom irrigation systems
Boom irrigation reduces the number of employees needed to hand water plants. Growers can also apply various chemicals through irrigation booms to reduce the amount of single applications. Boom irrigation systems are best used in facilities where plants are grown on the floor with wide ranges and walkways.
Robotic vegetative cutting sticking machine
Producers who grow large quantities of young plants have made the investments into robotic vegetative cutting sticking machines, such as the Visser Autostix system (Photo 10). The vegetative cuttings are placed into biodegradable clips (Photo 11) which helps improve the performance of the robotic transplanter and allows for it to process some of our more delicate cuttings species. The sticking machine reduces the number of employees needed on the sticking line and reduces the time to stick cuttings.
Robotic transplanter
Some growers invested in automated transplanters to transplant plugs from trays into larger containers. This robotic system also reduces labor needed on the transplanting line.
Automated grading/sorting machine
Producers who grow large quantities of young plants, especially perennials or woody ornamentals, use grading or sorting machines. Especially in longer production cycles, perennials and woody ornamentals differ in growth rates or quality throughout the production period. Those selling young plants often need to grade those for shipment or replant those that need more production time.
Mechanical pruning, shearing or trimming machines
Growers of woody ornamentals needed to prune, shear or trim plants in order to increase rooting and control extension growth during long production schedules. This custom-made trimming machine (Photos 14, 15) allows for employees to trim plants quickly while disposing of the growing tips along the aisles which can easily be cleaned up.
Michigan State University Extension recommends growers take note of processes that decrease efficiency or require heavy staffing during this season. Once the season is over, greenhouse owners or managers can seek to input labor-saving strategies for next year.

Self-Organized File System For Mobile Devices
The issue of limited user space is important for all mobile devices today. Any user want to use a lot of content but don't want to pay for expensive large-volume cards to store it.
So the opportunity to share data in the ad-hoc network of mobile devices is very attractive.
Imagine that the data is distributed transparently among the net instead of being stored locally on each device. Any user can use any data in this net but has to store only the part locally.
So the idea of the project is to provide ability to use much more data on device with lack of user space by distributing data among the group of such devices in assumption that they supports networking and the sets of needed data are overlapped inside this group.
We suggest to develop serverless distributed file system to provide way to distribute data among the net of Nokia Interner Tablets, to use and to modify it remotely and so on.
We suppose to use some base conceptions of serverless distribution used in xfs file system as the heart of implementation.
As the first step this file system can be implemented as a user-space programm using the Fuse (File System in User Space) software.
The developed file system has to provide common file operations along with procedures of connecting/disconnecting to the "data community", of locating newly created data, and relocating data in the case of unbalanced usage of space among the net.

Red-feathered birds suffer from eye damage
Birds with red, orange or chestnut feathers are more likely to suffer from eye damage, researchers have found.
Scientists discovered the link after analysing the lenses in the eyes of 81 different species of bird.
Birds known for their bright flashes of colour, such as robins, were found to be more prone to cataracts.
Dr Ismael Galvan from Paris-Sud University, who led the study, said the results could have implications for other species, including humans.
A cataract is when the clear lens of the eye becomes cloudy, limiting the passage of light and affecting vision.
Bird's eye facts
- Vision is cited as the most important sense for birds; it is essential for flying
- The ostrich has the largest eye in the bird world. Measuring up to 5cm across, it is also the largest eye of any land animal
- Birds of prey have specialised eyes to allow them greater peripheral vision and super-sharp focus
- Birds have much more complex colour vision than humans and can see UV light
"Vision is of paramount importance for birds, and birds with cataracts are likely to have limited ability to hunt, forage or perceive visual [signs] used in communication," Dr Galvan told BBC Nature.
The study, published in the journal Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, Part A, is the first to study cataracts in wild animals.
Professor Graham Martin, an expert in bird vision from the University of Birmingham, suggested that eye damage in birds may have not been considered previously, because comparing a large sample of birds' eyes was such a considerable challenge.
"The eyes are one of the first things that deteriorates when a bird dies," he explained.
"I've seen cataracts in birds myself, but how prevalent they are and their distribution across different species has not been looked at before."Hobby help
To ensure they were studying fresh specimens, Dr Galvan and his team worked with taxidermists to investigate the lenses of birds they had collected for preservation.
End Quote Dr Ismael Galvan South Paris University
This may have implications for understanding the patterns of cataract prevalence in humans"
They discovered that a particular pigment linked the species that suffered from cataracts.
The pigment, called pheomelanin, is the same one that is responsible for red hair and freckles in humans.
"Pheomelanin generates red colouration, like the throat colour of barn swallows, but also orange-chestnut colourations," said Dr Galvan.
Birds found to be more susceptible to lens damage included ginger-winged barn owls, copper-chested kingfishers and aptly named redwings.
Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation is cited as one of the causes of cataracts, and because birds fly in open skies, they are exposed to high levels of UV.
Although some species have previously been found to have antioxidants that prevent UV damage, birds with reddish colourings have less of this protection.
"The production of pheomelanin consumes part of an antioxidant that plays a key role in the protection of lenses from cataracts," Dr Galvan explained.
The team hopes the results will stimulate further investigation into the links between pigments, antioxidants and lens damage.
"Our study may have implications for understanding [the] patterns of cataract prevalence in humans and other species," said Dr Galvan.
Prof Martin believes the results could also encourage bird ringers to add eye quality to the list of data they collect on birds.

The Policy Impact of Ideas
- The Policy Impact of Ideas: Science, Social Justice and Public Health Governance
- Speaker: Patrick Fafard # University of Ottawa
- Hosted by
- Introduced by
- Date and Time
- 24th Apr 2013 15:00 - 24th Apr 2013 16:30
- Seminar Room 4, Chrystal Macmillan Building
How ideas influence policy is a subject of continuing research and debate. In order to explain policy change many have argued that ideational processes help to construct policy problems; shape the assumptions that affect the content of reform; and become, at times, discursive weapons. However there are also powerful institutional enablers and constraints on the policy impact of ideas. In this paper, I propose to examine the role of the three dominant ideas in public health: "health" is special; science is essential; and, social justice is paramount.
The first part of the paper outlines a framework for thinking about ideas and policy change. The next three sections explore in turn how particular conceptions of "health"; "science"; and "social justice" define the public health account of policy making. The final section briefly applies the conceptual argument to two flash points in contemporary public health: the controversy surrounding the INSITE safe injection facility in Vancouver and, more broadly, calls for action on socioeconomic inequality in the name of health. In both cases the goal is to explore the impact of institutional arrangements on the policy impact of the core ideas animating public health.

VAT avoidance - groups of companies statement of practice on the new Schedule 9A VATA 1994: conditions for the issue of a direction under the new Schedule 9A: relevant event
A relevant event is defined (Schedule 9A, paragraph 1(2)) as occurring when a company joins or leaves a VAT group registration, or when it enters into any transaction. The word "transaction" is capable of being given a very wide meaning when considered in isolation, but the key to understanding how Customs will interpret this in the context of the provisions is that a relevant event occurs when a taxpayer enters into a transaction. Generally Customs will take this to mean when the taxpayer enters into a contract or other disposition, such as a gift.
Take a lease of a building. Each payment of rent could be regarded as a transaction in itself. However, the mere payment of rent would not be regarded as covered by the term "enters into any transaction" as used in the legislation.
Customs will regard the entering into of the lease by the landlord or tenant as a relevant event, which would (if the other conditions are met), potentially bring a company within the scope of the provisions. Other examples falling within the scope of the provisions are an agreement for a lease, an assignment, variation or surrender. The performance of obligations under the lease, (e.g. the carrying out of repairs or the payment of rent), would not normally be caught unless, exceptionally, such obligation constituted the entering into of a separate contract.


Every 15 Minutes
Crash Scene

Firefighters on the scene at the crash simulation
Firefighters on the scene at the crash simulation
Every 15 minutes is a program created to spread awareness to teens of underage drinking and driving. It offers a real-life experience without the real-life risks. Students were chosen to participate in a crash simulation to portray an actual car crash. On March 3, 2016 certain juniors and seniors who attended Cesar Chavez High School pretended to have died in a DUI accident. The crash simulation was open to the juniors and seniors to view.
"I feel that this experience did convey an actual collision caused by drunk driving. I also feel that it did effect many students greatly to see how it happens and what could happen," said Briana Perez.
The scenario was some students got a hold of alcohol for a party. They became intoxicated and later got in Elijah Torres' car. The crash simulation showed his car collided with a sober car. To make the scene even more realistic they had firefighters, police, and a helicopter.
"I enjoyed how realistic it was to have an actual car crash," Briana Perez, senior, said, "and what and how it happens when it was a drunk driver that caused the car crash and how they had all the actual police, ambulances, highway patrol, the car to take the dead people, and helicopter to transport severely injured people."
The purpose of the crash scene is to physically show and stress to students that the decision to consume alcohol can affect more people than just the one who drinks. Also that DUI accidents are serious and can have a big emotional effect on the people involved,their families,and even observers of the crash.
"I learned in this experience to be aware of my actions when driving and who I get in the car with. Also that alcohol and driving should never be mixed," Briana Perez, an interviewed spectator, said. "The crash did have an emotional impact on me because it can happen to anyone."

key with Shift held down.
CJL The minimal example of this mildly unexpected behaviour is to switch Caps Lock on, then in a Wish console (I'm talking Windoze here) type something, highlight it and press Ctrl-C. Now try to paste your text somewhere else (e.g. Notepad) using Ctrl-V - you'll discover that the copy didn't happen, but even though Caps Lock is still on, Notepad will quite happily obey the paste request (by pasting whatever was already in the clipboard). To me 'Ctrl-C' means "the physical key labelled with a 'C' was pressed while ctrl was down", and should have nothing to do with the state of Caps Lock, only the combination of keys pressed.
WHD: On both Windows and Mac OS X, normal apps accept both and ( and ) as the Paste key. For Tk, it appears that you need to bind both. On the other hand, if you bind both you'll find that all of the following combinations will paste:
 -
 -
 -
 -
If you want to support Shift-Control sequences in your keyset, you need to bind both and . Here's a simple solution that results in CapsLock-independent letter key bindings:
proc bindletterkey {tag modifier letter binding} {
 set upper [string toupper $letter]
 set lower [string tolower $letter]
 bind $tag <$modifier-$upper> $binding
 bind $tag <$modifier-$lower> $binding
bindletterkey.text Control F {puts Control-F}
bindletterkey.text Shift-Control F {puts Shift-Control-F}
Case Insensitive Binding edit
MG 2005-06-06: And, where the bindings already exist (ie, for the Text widget) and you want to make them case-insensitive, something like this will help.
proc mirror {class {dir 1}} {
 if {$dir eq {1}} {
 set range a-z
 set case toupper
 } else {
 set range A-Z
 set case tolower
 foreach x [bind $class] {
 if {[regexp "^<(.+-)?\[$range]>$" $x]} {
 set y [string range $x end-1 end-1]
 set y [string range $x 0 end-2][string $case $y]>
 if {[bind $class $y] ne {}} {
 bind $class $y [bind $class $x]
};# mirror
Then run, for instance:
mirror Text 1; # copy all lower-class bindings for the Text widget to upper-class versions
mirror Text 0; # copy all upper-class bindings for the Text widget to lower-class versions
mirror Entry 1; # copy all lower-class bindings for the Entry widget to upper-class versions
It's also careful not to overwrite bindings - if you have an and an binding for the Text widget, and run mirror Text 1, will be left as it is, rather than being overwritten with 's binding.
This raises one question for me, though - what's better practice? Should you bind to
bind Text [bind Text ]
and copy the binding, or use something like
bind Text {event generate %W }
to mirror 's state at the time the event happens?
Unbound bind edit
Some of the best bind coding doesn't involve bind at all. DKF, for example, astutely remarked that
event add <>
bind $class [bind $type <>]
bind $class [bind $type <>]
... [Correct; elaborate]
bind to a plain keystroke only (not modified by Ctrl or Alt) edit
proc bind'plainkey {tag key script} {
 bind $tag {}
 bind $tag {}
 bind $tag $key $script
bind'plainkey all x {puts Hello}
RUJ: If bind leave command to main window it is not (bindings) grabbing to its associated widgets. e.g.:
toplevel $wa -bd 1 -relief ridge
wm geometry $wa 600x40+$mousex+$mousey
wm resizable $wa 0 0
wm overrideredirect $wa yes
wm iconname $wa "menu"
wm group $wa.
focus $wa
grab set $wa
entry $wa.ent01 -width 6 -background white
bind $wa <1> [list after cancel destroy.base]
bind $wa [list destroy.base]
But it is destroying base if cursor goes near to entry. Can anybody solve the problem.
Disable Pasting edit
2008-03-17: How can I disable pasting into a text widget? I tried the following:
bind $theText <> {tk_messageBox -message {Paste Attempt}}
bind $theText {tk_messageBox -message {Paste Attempt}}
bind $theText {tk_messageBox -message {Paste Attempt}}
bind $theText {tk_messageBox -message {Paste Attempt}}
The message boxes are shown, so the event handling works. But after the message box has been clicked away, the pasting takes place anyway - at least for Shift-Insert.
Answer: You are adding bindings to the widget but aren't addressing the bindings associated with the widget class. Read up on bindtags. One solution is to add ;break to each binding to prevent the class bindings from firing:
bind $theText <> {tk_messageBox -message "Paste Attempt"; break}
Of course, you can also just set the -state option to "disabled".
Class binding, do they work?
[Janic]: 2009-07-01T09:48:17:
I tried to set a class binding but it never works. For example:
checkbutton.a -text test
pack.a
bind.a break
works fine (the widget is still active but you can't check it anymore), but if write
bind Checkbutton break
it doesn't work. Did I miss something in the class binding behavior?
MG: Many different bindings are checked for a widget, based on its bindtags. The default order for a widget is: bindings on the widget itself, bindings on its class, its toplevel, and then on all. Also, bindings are checked from most specific match to least specific (so if you press the 'a' key, it checks for KeyPress-a before a more generic KeyPress, etc).
That's why you're seeing what you see; first the widget's own bindings are checked, and the generic binding matches and is run; break stops further bindings being checked.
When you bind that on the Checkbutton class, though, the default binding is more specific, and gets used instead of your binding. (You can see all the default bindings with bind Checkbutton, then see what a specific one does with bind Checkbutton $binding.) So, to override the default binding, you'd need to either replace the Button-1 binding, or add something higher up the bindtags chain.
DKF: You are advised to be very careful with changing bindings of widget classes, as that affects all widgets of that type in the application. (It's most useful if you're adding more editing keys to the text widget, or are making your own megawidget class.) It's far better to adjust the bindtags for the specific widgets in question as the results are a lot more predictable.
wdb: Here an example: button.b has new binding tag, Button1 instead of Button. Bindings are copied from Button to lButton1, then binding of <1> is modified:
% package require Tk
% pack [button.b -text Howdy]
% # button appears
% bindtags.b
.b Button. all
% bindtags.b {.b Button1. all}
% apply {{old new} {
 foreach p [bind $old] {
 bind $new $p [bind $old $p]
}} Button Button1
% bind Button1 <1> "+puts yep!"
% # now clicking on.b:
% yep!
From now on, you can change arbitrary buttons without side-effects to "normal" buttons.
[telgo] 2010-07-29 15:22:47:
On a Mac [OSX 10.6.4] I have a program with a text widget, and the binding
bind. {
I also have a menu item that calls Find
$Test add command -label Find -accel Command-F -command Find
Find puts up a dialox box, but involves some sorting. However, it still takes less than a second to generate the data. Here it is:
proc Find {} {
 global body dict t
 set t1 [clock clicks -milliseconds]
 set f.dictdisplay
 _TAG_ if we want to restrict display
 set target {}
 if {[$t tag ranges sel] ne {}}

Decoding the Genome Canada Research Network : an institutional analysis
MetadataShow full item record
The rise of high-technological innovations in the midto late- 20th and early 21st centuries has required the establishment of equally innovative agencies and institutions to guide these technological innovations. This thesis examines the emergence and evolution of Genome Canada, which was created to oversee the proliferation and direction of genomic research within Canada. This thesis examines how genomic research developed in Canada throughout the late 1980s to early 2000s, why it became necessary to create Genome Canada, how the networked model chosen was seen as the preferred model, and how Genome Canada has evolved to date. This case study of Genome Canada is important because it reveals how public institutions that guide innovation emerge and how they evolve over time. As well, it is important because it reveals how the model used in the genome policy sector may be used again in the future as a framework for establishing other similar institutions.

A minute is a customary unit of time. It is equal to 60 seconds. There are 60 minutes in an hour. Unlike the second, the minute is not an SI unit.
A minute is also 160 of a degree. In this context, a minute is also called an arcminute, and is written with the [math]'[/math] symbol.[1][2]
For example, the Sun and Moon both have angular diameters of about 30 arcminutes—when seen from Earth.[3]

Project Name: Quadbot
Company/Affiliation: Stupid Fun Club
Description: Quadbot is a four-legged (or tentacle) based robot with a unique style of locomotion. Developed to have organic qualities, I modeled the kinetic geometry of its motion and engineered an actuated system using a single motor.
Quadbot has a distinctive locomotion. Using four tentacle appendages, the toy pushes and rolls its spherical body in a continuous fashion. The resulting motion has the Quadbot rolling about in a zigzag pattern. Tentacles are actuated by a double wire system which allows them to move in two directions. Inside the spherical body is a cam to which all the tentacle wires are attached. A single motor is able to drive this cam and simultaneously articulate each of the tentacles. When two tentacles are actuated they bend to create a fulcrum, while a third tentacle pushes the center of mass over this fulcrum, and allows the body to roll forward. The sequence is then repeated with a different combination of tentacles, resulting in the same movement but at 120 degrees apart, leading to a zigzagging motion.

|Wood Badge Course Registration Form||Wood Badge Dinner, 4/17/13|
Baden-Powell took the first steps in the training of Scouters by organizing a series of lectures for Scouters in 1911. He made great strides by devising and instituting Wood Badge training in 1919.
Wood Badge recipients now number more than 100,000 throughout the world.
The object of the Wood Badge course is to demonstrate as practically as possible the aims and methods of Scouting. Upon successful completion of the course, the participant receives a parchment certificate and the Wood Badgetwo wooden beads worn on a leather thong around the neck. These beads replicate the beads found by Baden-Powell during a campaign in Africa in 1888. They belonged to Dinizulu, an African chieftain. In searching for a suitable recognition for those who completed the first course in 1919, Baden-Powell remembered the beads and decided to present a bead to each participant. At that time, the course was called "Wood Badge."
The Wood Badge may be worn only with an official field uniform of the BSA. The Scouter to whom it has been awarded may also wear the tan neckerchief with its patch of Maclaren tartan at the back. The Wood Badge neckerchief may only be worn with the accompanying leather neckerchief slide or woggle.
In 1919, W. F. de Bois Maclaren, a district commissioner in Scotland, purchased Gilwell Park and presented it to The Scout Association of Britain. He wanted "to provide a training ground for the officers of the Scouting movement." Consequently, Gilwell Park became the permanent home of Wood Badge training in England and annually welcomes Scouters from around the world. The ax and log symbol associated with Wood Badge is actually the totem of Gilwell Park. Recently, The Scout Association has announced that it would relocate its headquarters from London to Gilwell Park.
In 1929, at the Third World Jamboree at Birkenhead, England, Sir Baden-Powell was made a baron by his king, and became Lord Baden-Powell of Gilwell.

What is SAP PI?
SAP PI (Process Integration) is an undertaking joining stage that gives consistent mix among SAP and non-SAP applications inside the association A2A (Application to Application) or even external the association B2B (Business to Business). It permits associations to trade data between inner programming projects inside the organization and outer frameworks outside the organization.The SAP PI full structure is Process Integration.
What is SAP PO?
SAP PO (Process Orchestration) is an instrument for mechanization and streamlining of business processes. It consolidates elements of SAP Business Process Management (BPM), SAP Process Integration (PI), and SAP Business Rules Management (BRM). As such, SAP Process Orchestration is a further developed rendition of SAP PI and has every one of the instruments expected to incorporate applications. The SAP PO full structure is Process Orchestration. Figuring out SAP PI/PO with an Example However, this was a specialized part of SAP PI, yet to comprehend this better we will see the case of execution of SAP Process Integration.
To comprehend the idea of SAP PI all the more plainly, we take an illustration of an enormous scope Dairy Industry, which is working in a huge part of a state and ruling the locale. Be that as it may, there is some limited scale dairy businesses working in a similar district, lined up with the enormous scope industry which isn't creating a gain because of their cost variety contrast with huge scope industry. So to keep away from the valuing struggle and keeping up with a similar value all around the district, enormous scope and limited scope industry choose to connect together, with the assistance of SAP PI. They interconnect with one another with the assistance of SAP PI and began to function as a solitary unit. Presently, through SAP PI they can trade all the data relating to dairy industry, including estimating and share an equivalent measure of benefit.
SAP PI interfaces various stages like
SAP and Non-SAP frameworks
B2B and A2A Scenarios
Offbeat and Synchronous Communications
Cross-part business process the executives
In this SAP PI/PO instructional exercise, we will learn
Why SAP PI/PO?
Before SAP PI, business would associate with one another through highlight point correspondence. In any case, this cycle isn't utilized for various and complex cycles. For smooth correspondence between different organizations, Mediated correspondence or Integration merchant is utilized, and SAP PI adjusts this framework well overall. It empowers interconnection of an alternate interaction by means of a focal area known as Integration Broker, dissimilar forthright to point association which is more similar to a cobweb. The coordination specialist or server is a fundamental piece of interceded correspondence comprise of Java based Advanced Adapter Engine (AAE) and a reconciliation motor for directing. Interceded correspondence depends on a coordination merchant which is executed by trading XML messages.
Significance of SAP PI/PO
SAP PI PO Overview
Let perceive how SAP PI handles the XML messages by the assistance of Integration Broker. The trading of information or message in SAP PI happens in this four stages.
Message Transformation: During message trade, it changes the construction of the business information
Message Routing: Forwarding a message sent by a shipper framework to at least one recipient frameworks
Network Adapters: Connecting the coordination representative and recipient framework, the connector will change the approaching message into an inbound message and later believer it to the configuration of the getting framework at the opposite end
Joining Processes: Cross part Business Process Management (ccBPM) comprises of capabilities for upgraded administration organization.
Next in this SAP PI instructional exercise, we will figure out How SAP PI/PO works.
How SAP PI/PO works
SAP PI carries out three essential roles
Interface: SAP PI has a capacity to incorporate with all application whether or not it is an application from an outsider or from the SAP. It utilizes the connector system to coordinate outsider arrangements. Co-ordinate: It can characterize a way/work process for every deal that is incorporated. It guarantees that each message is accurately conveyed from the source to the objective Convey: It can make an interpretation of documents into any configuration whether an inside record design or any business to business combination standard.Next in this SAP PO instructional exercise, we will find out about SAP PI PO design. SAP PI is certainly not a solitary part liable for the reconciliation of SAP and Non-SAP application, yet a bunch of parts together make SAP PI useful. This engineering of SAP PI or parts is utilized during configuration time, design time and at run time. The different parts of SAP PI incorporate

Where does the name Eileen come from?
By: Guest
Date: Sat-Sep-12-2009-
Eileen is an Anglicised form of the older Irish Gaelic names Eilin and Aibhilin. (Such names were often Anglicised with an "een" ending.) Both these derive from Norman French, and are probably versions of Ava or Aveline. Ava itself is of Germanic origin and uncertain meaning. There was a St Ava in France in the 9th century, but the name was rarely used until the 20th, when the fame of Hollywood actress Ava Gardner made it a popular choice for girls.
Eileen was better known in Ireland than anywhere else until the early 20th century, when it became popular all over the English-speaking world. It was especially well known in the 1980s when Dexy's Midnight Runners produced their hit song "Come on Eileen."
There is a less widespread Scottish variant, Aileen, and there is no masculine.EQUIV.alent.

text: We consider a hypercube view to perceive the label space of multilabel classification problems geometrically. The view allows us not only to unify many existing multilabel classification approaches but also design a novel algorithm, principal label space transformation (PLST), that captures key correlations between labels before learning. The simple and efficient PLST relies on only singular value decomposition as the key step. We derive the theoretical guarantee of PLST and evaluate its empirical performance using real-world data sets. Experimental results demonstrate that PLST is faster than the traditional binary relevance approach and is superior to the modern compressive sensing approach in terms of both accuracy and efficiency.

A computer system designed to analyse the motion of traffic has found a new role: tracking the movement of sperm to help in the treatment of male infertility.
Geoff Hobson developed the traffic tracking system while a professor at the University of Sheffield. He collaborated with Bill Holt of the Institute of Zoology in London to produce the Hobson Sperm Tracker which is now being sold by Hobson's Sheffield-based company, Sense and Vision Electronic Systems.
The sperm tracker can analyse live sperm via a video camera attached to a microscope, which is trained on a sample of semen. Alternatively, video recordings of sperm movement can be fed straight into the system's computer.
The sperms' motion is detected by comparing each frame of the video image with the previous one and registering the difference. The system displays the results as colour tracks superimposed over the microscope image. Information on eight aspects...

Q: Do I need to use a different type of resin in hot weather to do windshield repairs?
A: The short answer is no. For optimal windshield repairs, you need a resin with the best formulation of the following attributes: viscosity, elasticity, elongation, shrinkage, shore hardness, lap sheer strength, tensile strength, and a refractive index that matches the glass. You also need a resin that's appropriate for the weather conditions you are working in. Delta Kits' MagniBond resin meets all of the standards previously mentioned, and can be used to complete optimal windshield repairs in all types of weather conditions.
What can cause delamination, commonly referred to as "flowering" or the "Daisy Effect?" The three factors are heat, pressure and aged glass. With a Delta Kits I-100 low pressure injection system, you are able to control the pressure and flow of the resin into the break to help avoid flowering. Other injectors using air to force resin into the break are more likely to cause flowering because of the necessity to use higher pressure. If you use that type of system you may need to use a higher viscosity resin in hot weather. For this reason, Delta Kits offers resins of various viscosities to accommodate all windshield repair technicians. However, if you are using a Delta Kits windshield repair system, MagniBond resin is the only resin you need for all weather conditions and all types of windshield damage.
MagniBond resin has less acrylic acid than other resins, making it safer to work with, yet maintains the exceptional bonding strength and durability Delta Kits users have come to expect. Delta Kits has passed the BSI (British Standards Institute) requirements for repair strength, clarity, and durability, with flying colors.
While we're on the subject of warm weather repairs…a few of last month's hot weather tech tips are worth repeating. You can reduce the risk of crack-outs and flowering by following these steps:
- If possible, do your repairs in a climate controlled environment or a shaded area.
- Make sure the glass is between 70-100 degrees Fahrenheit, and that your resin is within 10 degrees Fahrenheit of the glass.
- Do not spray cold water, alcohol or any other cold liquid on the glass. When cooling the windshield, do it gradually and if you must use a liquid try soaking a towel in warm water and laying it across the windshield. The moist towel will draw the heat from the glass quite effectively.
- Use the floor and defroster vents to cool the entire cabin of the car, to minimize the risk of cracking the glass. If you cannot run the car, at least roll down the windows to equalize the inside temperature.
- Use a Delta Kits HX1000 Heat X-Changer for spot cooling.
Using the right resin and taking the proper precautions will make hot weather repairs a breeze!


How to find out that "/nvdli-nano" is the name of the directory in the docker container?
Hi guys, I am currently going through the DLI Course and when mounting a directory to the docker container using volume command we set the path of the container as "/nvdli-nano". My question is how do we find this out?
I'm sorry if the question may seem a little noobish, I'm quite new to docker.
--volume ~/nvdli-data:/nvdli-nano/data
Hi, this argument to docker run means that your user's ~/nvdli-data folder on your device (outside of container) will be mounted into the container and appear at /nvdli-nano/data (inside the container)
The /nvdli-nano path inside the container is where the notebooks reside and was how the container was setup. So knowing that path requires knowledge of how the container was built. Or you can typically launch a container and just look around for the different folders.

for threads belonging to the same process; maybe we just need to generalize this "enhanced" highlighting behavior to user-defined groups.
 [Khouzam] Yes, this is probably an obvious thing for groups, now that we have it for the current Multicore Visualizer.
 7. The Multicore Visualizer should have the ability to zoom, and based on the zoom level, the view could automatically add more information because there is more space available. So the level of detail will increase with the zoom level
 [WRS] True -- the Multicore Visualizer already handles being made too small by omitting text labels and other detail. We can also go in the other direction and add more detail if we are given more real-estate. I wouldn't go too far in this direction, though, because then you'll wind up with people complaining about having to keep zooming in and out to see more and less detail. We might want to consider instead putting some information on separate, selectable "overlays" or "layers", so that one can select what's needed without having to make the visualizer bigger to accommodate it.
 [Khouzam] Valid point. I thought automatically adding more information as the user zoomed-in could be user-friendly. The "layer" concept should come first. Automatically turning on layers is something we could then discuss.
 - A concept of grid-in-grid would allow separating each Multicore Visualizer element into sub-elements like a box for each register, or variable. As an example, this could be applied to the zoom level, where we could zoom out of the Multicore Visualizer of a single chip and then show a Visualization of many chips, each one showing a grid of cores as a sub-element.
 [WRS] We might also allow multiple Visualizer views, as someone suggested at the EclipseCon talk, and then have a "Processor Visualizer" view, so that one can click around in the Multicore Visualizer, and see more detail about the currently selected cpu/core in the processor visualizer -- again, as a way to avoid the user having to constantly zoom in and out to see the necessary detail.
 [Khouzam] That sounds good. I'm a little worried that people wouldn't realize they could do this by using multiple views though. But I like that one view could show a higher level, and then using the synchronization with the debug view, a second view could be 'zoomed' on the currently selected core. Then, with Pin&Clone, you could even have multiple views, zoomed on different cores at the same time.
 8. Synchronized resume and step must be supported in the Visualizer view. A synchronized resume or step is performed on multiple cores/processes/threads while keeping the progression in lock-step where each entity progresses at the exact same ratio.
 [WRS] If it's like synchronized resume of multiple threads, that might be a back-end/debugger feature, and below the visualizer's radar.
 [Khouzam] You are right that the actual implementation of the synchronized resume/step must be performed by the back-end. But CDT will need to provide UI to support this operation.
 - The concept of a leader for a synchronized operation is necessary. The leader is the entity part of the synchronized operation that will indicate when the operation has completed. For example, if two threads are stepped in a synchronized manner, the selected leader thread is the one for which the step must finish to indicate the operation is done.
 - The Visualizer view should support soft-groups. A soft-group is a group that is defined for a single operation; for example, a drag-selection or a multi-selection define a soft-group. Soft-groups needs a way to select a leader for synchronized operations. For multi-select, the last selection could be the leader. For drag-selection, the user could specify the leader by un-selecting an entity and then re-selecting it, making it the last one part of the selection.
 9. Building blocks of the view should not be limited to cores, but should be a generic building block that the user can name, set the size, specify the content. The content needs to be based on what the backend knows: "fundamental building blocks", i.e., threads, cores, chips, etc.
 - The Visualizer view could have a concept of widgets which already exists or can be created.
 - Configuration may need to be done at different levels. This means that some configuration would be done by the chip provider, e.g., the number of cores to show, other hardware entries to show; while other configuration could be done by the installer, e.g., which subset of cores to actually show the team of developers; and even more configuration at the user-level, e.g., which register to show
 [WRS] Again, is this extending the Multicore Visualizer, or providing "building block" support for custom views in the framework? We'd need some examples of what people would like to achieve to know where this building block / configuration support should properly live.
 [Khouzam] This is an ambitions and vague requirement. I suggest we revisit it once we have better support for customizations and layers.
 10. When doing drag-selection, it would be convenient to also drag-deselect (DONE)
Comments above from:
 - [WRS] Bill Swanson, Tilera Corporation
 - [Khouzam] Marc Khouzam, Ericsson
Multi-chip debugging
The CDT community is mostly focused in enabling multi-core debugging to the CDT. However, support for multi-chip debugging would also be interesting where you have chips->cores->processes->threads. Current solution will be to use multiple debug sessions (multiple GDBs). We will need GDB support to have a better integrated solution using a single GDB; using a single GDB would allow, for example, to support synchronous control of different chips.
Watch view
A new 'Watch' view would be a good addition to the CDT. This view (see 'watch' command in unix) would provide a way for the user to request that a console command or set of commands be executed at specific times such as:
 - after every state-changing operation
 - at a periodic interval
 - on particular events (suspend, running)
 - based on filters (when thread1 stops)
 - watchpoints
 - catchpoints
 - breakpoints
 - etc
It may be good to look at what is provide by the IAR Debugger where it is apparently possible to have a watch window which can be used to watch expressions which are updated in a specifiable interval.
 1. This concept could be extended to eclipse operations, like refreshing a view automatically on those triggers
 2. We could mimic a breakpoint condition/commands to allow the user to 'run a script' whenever one of the above triggers occurs. This script could be a gdb python script
 3. The view should always refresh if the context changes, unless it is pinned
 4. This watch view would handle its output in the following way:
 1. There should be a standard scrolling mode
 2. There should also be a fixed size output that only shows the last output.We could then "page up" to jump to the previous output repeatedly.
 3. We should have a toggle to choose between the two modes
 5. Another enhancement would be to highlight the changes from the new output compared to the previous output. This would allow the user to quickly see what changes. A nice way of showing change dynamically is firefox' javascript debugger who shows the new html code written in red to indicate what the single step actually created in html. This could be disabled by the user if the data is too different.
Enhancements to the Modules view
The modules view is used to show the list of currently used dynamically linked libraries. The view is updated whenever a new library is loaded or an existing one is unloaded (although there is currently a bug that makes the update not happen). The view also shows information about the libraries such as file location, base address and size. Below are some requirements for the Modules view.
Note that the Watch view described above may be more valuable than the below enhancements
 1. The view should be context-aware and show what is currently loaded based on the current context (process/core)
 2. Although modules can change when a process/core is running, it only needs to be refreshed once the process/core stops, just like for variables and such.
 3. Refresh of the view should be based on GDB's new MI events: =lib-loaded and =lib-unloaded
 4. Since the modules view is so simple for GDB, as to repeatedly issue the 'info sharedlib' command, the current behavior of the view could be replaced by the
new proposed Watch view which would send the 'info sharedlib' command upon the proper triggers.
Enhancements to Disassembly view
The Disassemby view shows the running code as disassembled by GDB. The view allows navigating through that disassembled code, to set breakpoints/tracepoints, and to show the disassembled code interleaved with source code. Below are some requirements relevant to the Disassembly view.
 1. Should support different memory spaces and allow the user to choose which memory space to show the disassembly for.
 2. Instructions that correspond to the same source code line should be identified. An example is shading them to the same color, and/or a vertical bar in the margin (see ARM product http://inf

Planning During the Internship: A Study of the Planning Practices of Preservice English Teachers
Hessong Grove, Rebecca M.
MetadataShow full item record
This collective case study investigated the planning practices of six English education interns during the full time internship, including planning for edTPA. Research and professional standards emphasize the importance of planning, as it undergirds every aspect of what happens in a classroom. By understanding how interns learn to plan, teacher educators can better facilitate interns' development of planning skills. Using activity theory as a theoretical framework, this study describes how interns' planning practices changed over the course of the internship and identifies factors that influenced changes. Data sources included lesson plans, interviews with interns and mentors, and edTPA lesson plans. Findings showed most interns did not write detailed daily plans, but those who did experienced fewer planning and teaching struggles. Communication and feedback from the mentor were major factors in creating successful plans and planning routines. Three of the interns began writing more detailed plans to improve their teaching, motivated by a desire to be more organized and effective. All interns wrote detailed, formal plans for edTPA, and these plans included elements that were not part of typical written plans, such as differentiation and formative assessment. Other areas of change included increased planning for scaffolding and addressing students' confusion. Graduate interns expressed increased confidence in planning student-centered lessons. Factors that influenced such changes included experience, mentor guidance, and support from a methods course. Interns also drew on their increasing knowledge of students and district curriculum to plan relevant lessons. Interns consistently planned at the whole-class level, with little evidence of planning for individual learning. This study has implications for teacher educators aiming to strengthen candidates' planning practices. Programs must facilitate proactive mentoring and structured co-planning. Pre-service coursework should help candidates integrate student-centered pedagogy, formative assessment, and differentiation into lesson plans. The impact of internship length and undergraduate vs. graduate program structures must be investigated further. Finally, this study indicates that planning for edTPA was educative for interns. This, along with other findings, suggests that more formal planning can improve intern learning and program coherence.

The developmental trajectories of behavioral control and resiliency from early childhood to adolescence and their effects on early onset of substance use were examined. Behavioral control is the tendency to express or contain one's impulses and behaviors. Resiliency is the ability to adapt flexibly one's characteristic level of control in response to the environment. Study participants were 514 children of alcoholics and matched controls from a longitudinal community sample (Time 1 age in years: M = 4.32, SD = 0.89). Children with slower rates of increase in behavioral control were more likely to use alcohol and other drugs in adolescence. Children with higher initial levels of resiliency were less likely to begin using alcohol.

Two Pointer technique in Java
What is Two pointer technique?
A two pointer technique is a technique where given a sorted array we have two starting points or two points of consideration as they both move towards the middle of the array being iterated over, the two pointer technique is a useful tool to utilize when searching for pairs in a sorted array. Although not it's only use case, when used this technique can save both time and space complexity.
when iterating through the data in a linear fashion we usually have a single entry point and we move through the data in one direction.
Given a sorted array we need to find the pair of number which sums up to the given number x.
Approach 1: Brute Force Solution
In the brute force solution of the problem we use a loop within a loop to iterate over all of the elements in the array, forming every possible pair combination and having the time complexity of O(n^2)
This approach takes too much time to run, which can further be optimized to run in O(n) time complexity.
Approach 2: Two Pointer Solution
Now let's look how the two pointer solution works and gives a better time complexity than brute force solution,
We take two pointers one which points to the first element(low) and one which points to the last element(high) of the array now according to the problem statement given we add the last and the first values together and check if the sum matches with the provided sum (x) if the computed sum is less than the given sum(x) then we increment the low pointer and if the sum is greater the given sum(x) we decrement the high pointer, we do this till we get the desired sum or the low > high.
Boolean pairSum(int Arr[], int n, int x)
// represents first pointer
int low = 0;
// represents second pointer
int high = n - 1;
while (low < high) {
// If we find a pair
if (Arr[low] + Arr[high] == x)
return true;
// If sum of elements at current
// pointers is less, we move towards
// higher values by doing low++
else if (Arr[low] + Arr[high] < x)
// If sum of elements at current
// pointers is more, we move towards
// lower values by doing high--
return false;
For this algorithm to work effectively we assume that we are given a sorted array and we move the pointers toward the center of the array so we do not miss any pair and we move one pointer only if the above conditions are met so that no pair is left untouched and every pair is checked once.

Research structures and the "web of prevention": ethical implications for insufficient environments
Bezuidenhout, Louise Martha
Medicine, Conflict and Survival
The dual-use potential of scientific research refers to the possibility that any beneficial scientific research may be misused for nefarious purposes by a third party. This potential within the life sciences has led to much discussion regarding ways to raise awareness and limit possible harm. The concept of a "web of prevention" as a multifaceted system for dealing this potential provides a comprehensive method of conceptualising a system of controls in the life sciences. The "web of prevention" involves multiple stakeholders, from diverse backgrounds such as science, public health, security studies and governance.

Governors are on every single air cooled engine, from lawn mowers and edgers to generators and one man augers. They are Mechanical and Pneumatic. Pneumatic governors are powered by an external air vane, while mechanical governors are run by a gear and spool assembly inside the engine. This page will explain how to adjust the mechanical governor on Briggs and Stratton and Tecumseh Engines.
Governors should never need adjusting, unless the governor arm is removed or tampered with. But in the event that they do need adjusting, here is how you do it. A rule of thumb is the governor shaft should be turned in the same direction the governor arm turns to open the throttle wide open. For example, on Tecumseh TVS, LEV, TVM, TVXL and other similar engines, the governor arm rocks in the counter clockwise direction to close the throttle to idle. To adjust the governor, you would loosen the screw on the bottom of the governor arm and push the governor arm so the throttle is wide open. Then you would turn the bottom "clip" (which is connected to the governor shaft) counter clockwise. This will set the governor shaft on top of the governor spool. Now tighten the screw.
To adjust the governor on a 5 HP Briggs and Stratton horizontal shaft engine, you would loosen the nut on the governor arm and push the governor arm down, clockwise. Then you would turn the governor shaft clockwise also and tighten the nut.

Cultural Differences in Marriage
Begin by seeking knowledge and understanding of each other's culture. Then you can move into acceptance and appreciation. Your cultures are different, and one is not right and the other wrong.
Cultural exploration is especially important before a couple marries and has children. Your cultures will affect most aspects of your relationship. Areas affected include family relationships, roles of women and men, communication skills, physical hygiene, role of religion, importance of education and careers and clothing/manner of dress. Knowing each other as partners includes knowing each other's culture.
When you are in a committed relationship/marriage, it is wise to have your cultures be a source of harmony rather than disunity. Some ways that you can do this are being sensitive to each other's needs and choices, nurturing appreciation for each other's culture, being flexible, focusing on loving one another and having both a spirit of adventure and sense of humor.


5 Tips For Selling Rural Land
In the past 5 months we have closed on (or has under contract) 43 properties totaling 5,979 acres for approximately $9.1 million dollars.
Here are some tips for a decision you'll feel good about:
Successful Selling
Some successful selling techniques for selling land include preparing all of the land information and documentation upfront, researching possible uses for the land and advertising close to home before launching a far-reaching marketing campaign. Selling land typically involves selling a piece of real estate that does not have a home or other type of building on it, so knowing what buyers want to purchase the land for will be useful in selling it.
Selling an empty plot of land can be difficult because it lacks some of the features and amenities that helps sell a more developed property. One of the first things a land seller should do is gather any documents they have on the property. Property documents include the most recent land survey, title or deed.
Second, review the survey to obtain some of the facts and figures that you will want to use as selling points for the land. This includes the square footage or acreage of the lot, the shape of the lot and anything that sits on the land. While the land may not have an actual building, the land may have other selling points for selling the land, such as a lake, pond, well or sewer system, trees, landscaping, a barn or other selling points. The seller should thoroughly research any zoning options the property may have.

Keywords: IT management, IT costs, chargeback systems, systems complexity, IT control
The dialectic of IT chargeback systems
Many organisations have adopted chargeback systems whereby users are charged for the IT resources which they use. The purpose is to control the costs of information technology. Chargeback systems have recently received a resurgence of interest with the rapid change in IT. Many writers are currently advocating chargeback systems to control the escalating costs. Chargeback systems are expected to increase user awareness of IT costs, and thereby, improve decision-making and effectiveness of Information Technology. Many organisations have never adopted chargeback systems. They have used other management techniques for controlling IT costs. Chargeback systems have been controversial since the earliest computer applications. The current environment has added new issues which have provoked discussion. This article discusses the advantages and disadvantages of chargeback systems. The emphasis is on new issues which have arisen due to the changing technological environment. The dimensions which frame the discussion are the evolving empowerment of users, complexity of systems, and the cost structure. Recommendations are made for effectively using chargeback systems alternatives.
