Criminal Blog Week Day 1–Sharia Criminal Law
Monday, April 11th, 2011
Being criminal defense attorneys in Bartow, we often represent clients who are originally from other countries or cultures. These clients not only have questions about their case, but also about our system of criminal justice. For example, when someone comes from a country where marijuana is legal, they do not understand why they are subjected to criminal punishment here for possession of the same drug.
Our firm recently gave a lecture on Sharia law and its impact on American jurisprudence. As part of that presentation, we talked about how Sharia criminal law is different from American criminal law. Perhaps these two systems are most different in their criminal punishment methods. Regarding criminal punishment, Sharia is noted for its draconian executions, including its use of stoning, lashing and flogging. Sharia scholars are quick to point out that these are not the only forms of punishment used by their courts, but are the ones most debated in the West as their methods are most contrary to our Eighth Amendment ban on cruel and unusual punishment.
Besides our methods of punishment, there are many differences between Sharia criminal court and American criminal court. Here are just a few such differences:
In Sharia court, trials are conducted by the judge; there is no jury system. There is no pre-trial discovery process, and no cross-examination of witnesses. Rules of evidence are also vastly different, with Sharia giving priority to oral testimony over written documents/evidence. On most charges, testimony must be established by two witnesses, preferably male witnesses. (One exception is rape, which must be established by four eyewitnesses.) A woman's testimony is worth only 1/4-1/2 to that of a male.
Forensic evidence is rejected in many cases in Sharia courts, including fingerprints, ballistics, DNA and blood samples.
These rules can make it extremely difficult for women victims in all cases, but especially rape charges.
At the cost of sacrificing due process, Sharia courts significantly increase speed and efficiency of dockets. But this is a price American criminal courts are unwilling to pay.

Random information on the term "EIRE":
The Proto-Celtic language, also called Common Celtic, is the reconstructed ancestor language of all the known Celtic languages. Its lexis can be confidently reconstructed on the basis of the comparative method of historical linguistics. As Celtic is a branch of the Indo-European language family, Proto-Celtic is a descendant of the Proto-Indo-European language. According to one theory, Celtic may be closest to the Italic languages, which together form an Italo-Celtic branch. The earliest archaeological culture that may justifiably be considered as Proto-Celtic is the Late Bronze Age Urnfield culture of Central Europe from the last quarter of the second millennium BC. By the Iron Age Hallstatt culture of around 800 BC, these people had become fully Celtic.

Not an American user?
Sarah Maribu and her brother Michael are two archaeologists and explorers, that arrive by helicopter to an uncharted island and start to investigate the temples and other structures of a lost civilization.
Sarah Maribu and the Lost World is a hidden object game with elements of the adventure genre. Most of the time, the objective is to find and click on all the items shown as pictures on slots at the left side of the screen, on locations filled with assorted paraphernalia scattered throughout the scenery. The hint button shows the position of one of the required items, but takes thirty seconds to recharge after use. Some of the objects are stored inside the inventory, to be used later when solving puzzles.
The inventory can be accessed through the tools button at the bottom-left corner, sliding upwards to reveal all of its compartments. The objects have to be used as in most point-and-click adventures, by dragging and dropping them over logical places to perform an action or complete a task. Some of the objects can only be found inside one of the interactive windows showing another angle of the location, that appear after clicking on certain hotspots.
There are mini-games between each chapter, like the Simon implementation where the player has to repeat a color sequence in a set of drums, the weights puzzle where statuettes have to be distributed on columns to reach equilibrium, and other similar challenges.

Re: Civil War Pension Question
In Response To: Civil War Pension Question ()
In the pension application files, there are numerous cases of men with the same last name, and equally numerous cases of men who served under more than one name. So, you will see files with Jones, Washington/Demus, Abraham W.....or similar. In some of the Black units especially, there were several men with the same name. As you can imagine-the George Washingtons, Thomas Jeffersons, Smiths, Jones, Black, etc were frequent occurrences. It was frustrating for both the officers and men. In one regiment alone, there could be more than thirty men with the same name.
Yet another problem was in the contested pensions-where a man had left more than one widow/family who claimed to be his heirs. I know of at least one case, where four women claimed to be the spouse, and quite possibly were.
What exactly did the message you received say? It might be a clue as to why there was a problem. Small details like mispellings in the records-or changes over time within the family, uses of initials, nicknames or middle names used as given name, location of enlistment, regiment/company, etc. all will complicate your efforts.

DBSync's "Sage 100 & PocketAdvantag Bidirectional Integration" is easy to use solution template which integrates data both ways between the Sage 100 & PocketAdvantage app. The template is also useful in migrating historical Sage 100 data into PA and can also be used to do a periodic swipe of historical accounting data into PA. This template provides Bi-directional the flexibility for more complex and dynamic mapping capability.
One of the most important prerequisite prerequisites of Sage 100 and PocketAdvantage system is to setup set up the ODBC data source connection on the server where Sage 100 is hosted. The below steps explain how to setup set up the ODBC connection so that Sage 100 opens a connection to DBSync.
- Go to Control Panel -> Administrative services of the server on which the Sage 100 is hosted.
- Select the service ODBC data source 32-bit/64-bit based on server configuration. This will open a pop up as shown in the image below.
- Choose the Tab user DSN and click on the Add button. This will open a pop up with various drivers.
- Choose MySQLODBC5.3 unicode Unicode driver. This will pop open a window to enter connection properties.
- In the MySQL connection window, enter the following Parameters Data Source Name: dbsyncqueue, TCP/IP server: dbsync-queue.cvglyvvn64dx.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com, user:dbsync, Password:, DatabaseDatabase: Sage.
The steps below show how to import the job file script provided by DBSync - it is mandatory for the integration to work.
- Login to Sage 100 with valid credentials.
- On the left navigation, select a visual integrator. This will provide a list of options.
- Choose the "Job Import" option from the available values.
- Choose the file provided by DBSync. The file can be downloaded by clicking on the following link.
- From the file dialog box, choose the file. It will show the list of all the jobs that are required for DBSync to perform the integration.
- Select all. And then, click on the Accept button as shown in the following screen shotscreenshot.
- Login to Sage 100 with valid user credentials.
- Search for the Task Scheduler from the search. It will return the search results.
- Clicking on the search result name of Task Scheduler will open a popup - as shown in the image below.
- Key in the desired job name. Moving the cursor to next text box will auto-populate the company code, Sage 100 user logon login, and server user logon.
- The user will have to key in the Sage 100 Account Password and Server Password. Then, s/he will have to choose the type to "Visual Integrator ".
- Set the schedule job intervals by choosing the appropriate options.
- Choose the tab "Tasks".
- Select the V/I Job Type to to Export, in case of reading data from Sage 100. Or, choose Import in case of writing to Sage 100. Then, choose the V/I Job Name as appropriate.
- Click on Accept to save the job.
A question may arise - what happens to the Sage data after it being is read from the Sage 100 application? How does DBSync process the data and write to the PocketAdvantage? Below steps explain how Sage Data is being processed to the PocketAdvantage.
- The Scheduled jobs within the Sage 100 application, helps to read from Sage and processes to DBSync.
- The DBSync holds the Sage data in a queue - i.e. a buffer - before applying the required transformations and writing to the PocketAdvantage.
- The workflows - with the naming convention "Merge" within the DBSync - will help DBSync to sort any duplicate records that are processed into the DBSync's buffer.
- DBSync internally uses a chaining technique for the merging process. The technic enables DBSync to identify unique records and separate duplicate records from the unique ones.
- Then, another workflows workflow will process the data from DBSync buffer to PocketAdvantage.
DBSync Integration of Sage & PocketAdvantage can be triggered by:
- Clicking on the Run-now button from the process listing page of DBSync.
- Using DBSync Scheduler.
Clicking on Run-Now Buttons From DBSync platform
The user can login log in to DBSync with his/her valid credentials and click on the Run-now button from the process listing page or from the workflow listing page. The order of execution, of the process, must follow the following path:
- Scheduler available in DBSync Account can be used to schedule the integration. For further details on the scheduler, please click on the following link _URL_

I have been searching for quite a while to no avail for this answer, and was hoping that someone may have the answer here.
I'm not new to c++; I have been working with it for about 3 years now, and recently moved into visual c++ (with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008), where I quickly ran into a problem I have yet to answer.
My question seems easy enough; is it possible to create objects (such as labels or picture boxes) on the fly from within functions, rather than in the namespace constructor?
I know the general creation code defined with the handles/pointers in the beginning of the form's namespace, but I'm wondering if - through a function - it is possible to create and destroy them?
And if so, what is the proper syntax, and how would I be able to - if at all possible - port it over to an external.cpp file?
Considering the diversity of the C++ language, I believe that the answer to my problems exist, but I have yet to find out precisely what it is.
Any potential help would be appreciated.

This climate is ideal for people who can't stand or don't like the sweltering heat and those who like to relax on the beach in June or September-October, considering it an ideal time. Our dear children also feel much more comfortable in this climate!
Biarritz's unique climate
This natural "air-conditioning" effect in Biarritz is mainly due to 2 effects :
1 - Biarritz's particular location at the bottom of the amphitheatre of the Bay of Biscay, facing the Atlantic Ocean, which gives:
- The constant presence of a cool breeze circulating in the bay, even at the height of summer.
- The constant presence of the famous warm Gulf Stream current brings warm water from Mexico and the Caribbean's southern coasts. On entering the bay, this warm current is "stuck" here, unable to flow northwards. Thus, the Gulf Stream acts as an air conditioner for Biarritz while making the coastal waters extremely pleasant for swimming (for example, in southern Portugal, the water remains colder because the warm current never reaches it).
2 - Biarritz is "wedged" between the ocean and the southern Pyrenees:
- Thus, winds from the south rise towards the Pyrenees' summits, up to 3000m, where they lose humidity and go down to Biarritz while warming up (Foehn effect). Biarritz is therefore regularly swept by warm, dry winds from the south, which mix with the milder, more humid ocean breezes off the coast. The dry southerly winds contribute to the fact that Biarritz often has the highest winter temperatures in France, even at Christmas time.
The weather in Biarritz
- The weather in Biarritz in April: air - about +17°C, water - about +13°C.
- The weather in Biarritz in May: air - about +21°C, water - about +16°C.
The May holidays are always sunny, flowers and trees bloom everywhere, and temperatures reach +20+21. The nights are still cool, but you can sunbathe and start swimming in the gradually warming ocean during the day.
By the way, spring is the hortensias season in Biarritz. Flowers are everywhere, and it's absolutely magic!
- The weather in Biarritz in June: air - about +23°C, water - about +20°C.
- The weather in Biarritz in July: air - about +25°C, water - about +22°C.
- The weather in Biarritz in August: air - about +26°C, water - about +23°C.
The average temperature in the shade in Biarritz is +26°C in August and +23°C in June and September. Naturally, it is warmer in full sunshine, up to +30°C and more. But thanks to the humidity, there are always clouds forming, which, with a light cool breeze, makes these hot months as comfortable as possible.
- The weather in Biarritz in September: air - about +23°C, water - about +21°C.
- The weather in Biarritz in October: air - about +21°C, water - about +18°C.
In October, the average temperature in Biarritz is around +21°C in the shade. This is a time of year when people spend a lot of time on the beach, and it is the time of year when the French media tend to talk about Biarritz as the hottest city in the country.
About the rain in Biarritz
It doesn't rain often and not for long in Biarritz during the summer period, but it rains a lot! It is a tropical rain that makes you run very fast to seek shelter to not get wet in a second. But as a rule, an hour later, the sun comes out as suddenly as it left, and the city and the ocean begin to shine again. This is why Biarritz is bathed in greenery all year round and is famous for its lush hydrangeas. The vegetation remains vividly green even in July and August when Provence is burnt and dried by the sun.
Water temperature and purity in Biarritz
The water temperatures around Biarritz are pleasant and comfortable for swimming, thanks to the Gulf Stream, which carries the warm waters of the coasts of southern Mexico and the Caribbean. The water is much warmer here than in Portugal, for example, where this current does not occur. The average summer temperature of the coastal ocean waters in Biarritz is +23°С. Tourists bathe in Biarritz from early June to late October, and locals have no problem bathing in May and November. Another essential aspect, of which all the locals are proud, is the ocean waters' purity. Here, the water is constantly in motion; it travels and renews itself. The inhabitants pay great attention to the purity of the water. They do not bathe in most parts of the Mediterranean, considering that it is not clean enough compared to their hometown's waters.
The climate and oysters
The mild climate and clean waters of the Bay of Biscay allow oysters to reproduce and develop in ideal conditions for them. This is impossible, for example, in areas where the sea is warmer, and the water is stagnant. A few kilometres north of Biarritz, you will discover a real paradise of fresh oysters. And the oysters that are served to you have been fished only a few hours earlier.
The waves in Biarritz
The waves of Biarritz always offer a beautiful spectacle beyond imagination. Seeing it, some people dream of surfing, while others may be afraid. But Biarritz and the Basque Coast are lucky again - because here we also find beaches that are completely protected from the waves and where the water is calm and very welcoming. So, absolutely everyone will find their happiness here! For example, all children in Biarritz learn to swim directly in the ocean, on beaches where the ocean looks more like a swimming pool :)


Class 3 Calamity
Class 3 Calamity is a anime/manga concept
Edit this Page
The content below is entirely editable.
The Class 3 Calamity is a curse that haunts the 9th Grade students of Yomiyama North Middle School's Class 3.
Every year in Yomiyama North Middle School's 9th Grade Class 3, past records are mysteriously altered and an unidentifiable dead person joins class as an extra student. Changing rosters or class assignments fails to solve the issue and eventually, the dead student brings enough bad energy into the classroom resulting in a student and one of their family members dying every month.
No permanent cure has been found, however, one class was able to stop the calamity after it began by using currently unknown methods and acts involving a shrine. After years of death, the students and teachers of Class 3 found a preventive measure with a success rate nearing 50%. The students and teachers simply ignore one student and act as if they don't exist, which figuratively puts the class count back at a normal level, and prevents people from dying.
26 years before the start of the series, star student named Yomiyama Misaki tragically died in an accident. Unable to cope with or accept his death, his classmates, teachers, and students acted as if he was still an active member of the class. After graduation, they noticed that he still appeared in class photographs despite being dead.

Insert work fine (its just db.Insert(something)), but have no idea how to select values that where just inserted.
var db1 = new SQLite.SQLiteConnection(dbpath);
there is a method called :

It can also calculate the number week days (Mon. to Fri.) or the number of weekend days (Sat. & Sun.) for the same period. A date can be moved forward/backwards by any number of weeks, week days, days, hours or minutes. Entries can be saved for use in the future. Time calculator allowing computations to be performed on days, hours and minutes is also included.


Metro has a multi-layered cache: you can set up multiple caches to be used by Metro instead of one. This has several advantages, on this page we will explain how the caches work.
Why Cache?
Caches give big performance benefits, they can increase the speed of a bundler with more than tenfold. However, many systems use a non-persistent cache. With Metro we have a more sophisticated way of caching with a layer system. For example, we can store the cache on a server. Because of this all bundlers connected to the same server can use the shared cache. As a result the initial build time for CI servers and local development become significantly lower.
We want to store caches in multiple places as to always have a cache to fallback to. That's why there is a multi-layered cache system.
Cache Fetching & Saving
There is an ordering mechanism to determine which cache to use. For retrieving a cache we go through the caches from top to bottom until we find a result, for saving a cache we do the same until we find a store that has the cache.
Let's say you have two cache stores: one on a server and one on your local file system. You would specify that in this way:
const config = {
cacheStores: [
new FileStore({/*opts*/}),
new NetworkStore({/*opts*/})
Metro will first look into the FileStore when we retrieve a cache. If it can't find the cache there it will check NetworkStore, and so on. Finally if there's no cache there it will generate a new cache itself. As soon as the cache has been generated, Metro will go again from top to bottom to store the cache in all stores. This also happens if a cache is found. For example, if Metro finds a cache in the NetworkStore it will store it in FileStore as well.

A Hybrid Approach for Efficient Provenance Storage
Efficient provenance storage is an essential step towards the adoption of provenance. In this paper, the authors analyze the provenance collected from multiple workloads with a view towards efficient storage. Based on their analysis, they characterize the properties of provenance with respect to long term storage. They then propose a hybrid scheme that takes advantage of the graph structure of provenance data and the inherent duplication in provenance data. Their evaluation indicates that their hybrid scheme, a combination of web graph compression (adapted for provenance) and dictionary encoding, provides the best tradeo in terms of compression ratio, compression time and query performance when compared to other compression schemes.

Traffic breakdown phenomenon is prevalent in empirical traffic system observations. Traffic flow breakdown is usually defined as an amount of sudden drop in traffic flow speed when traffic demand exceeds capacity. Modeling and calculating traffic flow breakdown probability remains an important issue when analyzing the stability and reliability of transportation system. The breakdown mechanism is still mysterious to practitioners and researchers in varying manner. Treating breakdown as a random event, this paper use discrete time Markov chain (DTMC) to model traffic state transition path, as a result, a transition probability matrix can be generated from empirical observations. From empirical analysis of breakdown, we found this formulation of breakdown probability follows the Zipf distribution. Therefore, a connection from traffic flow breakdown probability to how many vehicles are occupying a certain freeway segment (e.g. a link) will be established. Following from the results, a quantitative measure of breakdown probability can be obtained to optimize ramp metering rates to achieve optimum system performance measures.

The Rosa Porrino is a pink coloured granite from Spain that is a reference granite all over the world. The Rosa Porrino has set the standards for pink coloured granites and opened a large market for this type of granites. Today, there are similar granites from different origins being commercialized all over the world, but the Rosa Porrino will still remain a pioneer for this type of granite.
Due to its fame and international recognition, this granite has taken several different names according to each supplier, market, project, etc. We present below some of these alternative names that identify the Spanish Rosa Porrino:
- Rosa Porrinho: the Portuguese name for the Rosa Porrino granite. There is a variation of the Rosa Porrino being extracted in Portugal.
- Porrino Pink: the English name for the Rosa Porrino granite, it is common to use this name on English speaking countries.
- Spanish Pink granite: a generalist name to describe the Rosa Porrino granite. If we talk about Spanish pink granite, we normally refers to its main reference: the Rosa Porrino
- Porrino granite: simply known as Porrino granite. Porrino is the town nearby where the Rosa Porrino granite quarries are located.

Save the Canadian Exchange Program for Educators
0 have signed. Let's get to 2,500!
In June 2019, the board of directors of CEEF (Canadian Educational Exchange Foundation) terminated the teacher exchange program. CEEF has offered the opportunity for international educational exchanges to both educators and students.
Teacher Educational Exchanges are a unique blend of professional development and international cooperation.
Benefits of a teacher exchange include:
- enable our students to develop global understandings of historical and contemporary social and cultural worlds
- create learning opportunities for our students that extend their local and national communities
- exposure to different education systems and assessment methods, bringing international perspectives to classrooms and schools
- development of new pedagogy ideas and skills for effective teaching
- acquisition of diverse perspectives to share with colleagues
- opportunity for teachers and their families to connect to a variety of cultures and communities
- developing resiliency skills and self-confidence
- building an international educational and personal network
- access to international travel opportunities and experiences
- enhanced language skills
- a cost neutral opportunity for school boards to enable a full year of extraordinary professional development for teachers which benefit students, schools, school communities, and school boards
Overview of the Exchange Program
The first recorded teacher exchanges occurred in 1899 between the UK and a small group of Toronto teachers. By the 1920s, the Ministry had taken over the responsibility, and BC and some other provinces had also begun offering teacher exchanges. The Ministries or Departments of Education for each province managed the programs until the 1990s.
In 1991 in Ontario, the Ministry of Education divested the program to OFEE (Ontario Federation for Educator Exchange). Administration of the program was by an executive and board of directors of former exchange teachers and supervisory officers with the non-financial support of the Ministry and school boards in terms of facilities, information, and promotion, etc. In 1997 OFEE and OSEF (student exchange program) for reasons of efficiency and financial expediency merged to become CEEF governed by one common board.
In 2000, the BC Ministry of Education approached CEEF to take over their program. Thereafter, NB, NS, PEI, SK, MB also approached CEEF to manage the program in their provinces. The program has exchanged teachers from within our country and with other countries such as Australia, the United Kingdom, France, New Zealand, Germany, United States, Denmark, Spain, and Switzerland. Organizations affording this opportunity become a part of an international network of educational authorities looking outward to become active global citizens and to strengthen educational systems.
When educators immerse themselves in other educational systems, they not only serve as ambassadors of the quality of Canadian educators on the world stage but also are allowed the opportunity to reflect on best practices at a deeper level. Exchange teachers experience first-hand inclusion, the diverse learner, indigenous education, achievement gaps, minority languages, and other important developments in education that are unfolding globally. They bring back new ideas to enrich Canadian students and the teaching profession.
Why sign the petition?
Your vote is essential to sustain the program. Your vote will demonstrate that there is a significant interest in a teacher exchange program.
Without a Canadian teacher exchange program, teachers will lose a valuable and unique opportunity to foster global perspectives, acquire international pedagogy, nurture respect and awareness of diverse cultures, and promote personal and professional growth and development.
Send us a Letter of Support
As well as signing the petition, you can also forward a letter of support to Canadian Teachers for Educational Exchanges, a group of volunteers who feel passionately about the teacher exchange program at _EMAIL_ to help in our efforts to keep the exchange program alive.

Program Notes
Bring a Torch, Jeanette, Isabella (French: Un flambeau, Jeannette, Isabelle) is a Christmas carol which originated from the Provence region of France in the 17th century. The song is usually notated in 3/8 time.
The carol was first published in France, and was subsequently translated into English in the 18th century. The song was originally not meant to be sung at Christmas; it was considered dance music for French nobility.
It seems likely that the melody was written by Charpentier, derived from the air à boire Qu'ils sont doux, bouteille jolie from the now lost Le médecin malgré lui.
The song title refers to two female farmhands who have found the baby and his mother in a stable. Excited by this discovery, they run to a nearby village to tell the inhabitants, who rush to see the new arrivals. Visitors to the stable are urged to keep their voices quiet, so the newborn can enjoy his dreams.
To this day, on Christmas Eve in the Provence region, children dressed as shepherds and milkmaids carry torches and candles while singing the carol, on their way to Midnight Mass. - Program Note from Wikipedia

|There are many distinctive ways that cultures connect to other cultures, through different languages and various traditions. There are also other ways in which cultures share similarities.|
One of those is the teapot. For each culture represented in this work of art, the teapot has a different shape. In the different countries, there are unusual styles and diverse arrangements of the parts of a teapot. The simple display of a spout, handle, body, and top are altered to make them either complex or simple yet noticeably unique.
The teapots sit together on a shelf to represent the unity among the countries. The teapot is a form of art that has united companies in computer graphics, and in this piece, it unites nations.

Your statement of truth really, really matters!
Not many court experts, signing the statement of truth at the end of their reports, are thinking about the clang of the prison gates. The recent decision in Liverpool Victoria Insurance v Zafar [2019] EWCA Civ 392 is a reminder that they should.
The medical expert revised a prognosis in his medical report by adopting his instructing solicitor's suggestion, and without re-examining the client or exercising any professional judgment. There was no clinical justification for the amendment. It was not perhaps surprising that the judge had held that the expert was reckless as to the truth of the revision and as to whether that would mislead the court, and for that contempt of court passed a sentence of 6 months imprisonment but suspended it.
The Court of Appeal was asked to find the sentence unduly lenient. It did.
It was emphasised that making a false statement verified by a statement of truth is a serious offence. Doing so deliberately or recklessly would usually result in committal to prison, and the offence remained serious even if there was no direct financial motive on the part of the expert for the false statement. In the case of an expert witness, it made little difference whether the false statement was made deliberately or recklessly.
The maximum sentence for contempt is 2 years' imprisonment. A sentence "well in excess of 12 months" was the starting point. Early admission and co-operation, genuine remorse and previous unblemished professional record were all relevant, but breach of the court's trust by a professional witness could be expected to result in severe sanctions. That experts in this position will have brought ruin upon themselves was not a reason not to impose a significant custodial sentence.
The Court of Appeal indicated immediate custodial sentence would be the norm, and there would have to be powerful factors to justify suspending the sentence.
The expert in this case was not re-sentenced as the guidelines now available by this judgment were not available when he was sentenced. However it was made clear that now an appropriate sentence would be an immediate custodial sentence significantly longer than six months.
An expert must take the statement of truth required at the conclusion of an expert report for any court or tribunal extremely serious. Although rarely read, as it is pasted into a report or appears in the template, it does bear reading. To recklessly or deliberately misstate matters in the report in breach of that statement of truth is likely to result in an immediate custodial sentence, as well as terminal consequences for the expert's professional status.
Similar weight should also be given to the sign-off of a joint statement following a joint discussion between experts. In civil claims this requires a brief restatement that the experts recognise their duties to the court and that they have not been instructed to avoid reaching agreement on any matter within their competence. An intentional or reckless false statement is likely to have similar consequences.

Ubongo is a Tanzanian social enterprise that creates interactive edutainment for learners in Africa, delivered to them via the technologies they already have. An important factor behind the success of Ubongo is a continuous human-centred design process and 'design with the user' approach – in this case the users are Tanzanian children aged 3–6 years and their parent. Building user testing and rapid experimentation into the production process has allowed Ubongo to craft a product that is much more effective and engaging than if they were to simply create from prior knowledge and expertise. As this example shows, there can often be a big difference between the two.

Report: Flint, Detroit more blighted than hurricane-ravaged New Orleans
The article is based on a study from the Greater New Orleans Data Center, which has been tracking blight in six cities notorious for urban decline.
New Orleans held the unwanted "most blighted" among the six cities -- which also include Cleveland, Baltimore and Youngstown, Ohio -- for five years until the report for 2011, the most recent data available to the Center.
About 21 percent of all New Orleans properties were blighted in 2011, compared with 27 percent in Flint and 24 percent in Detroit, the report says.
The percentage of blight was based on the number of blighted addresses or empty lots plus vacant but habitable homes according to data kept by the U.S. Postal Service.
The study notes that measuring blight can be a challenge because "each municipality defines blight differently, and some don't track blight at all."
The 2011 data for New Orleans is also the first year of the study that includes estimates by the study authors and a larger margin of error because of a change in how the USPS recorded data, according to the study.

Home Market Effect Hypothesis in a Multi-Country World
AbstractThe home market effect (HME) is commonly defined as a more than proportional positive causation from demand to supply. Recent theoretical literature, however, shows that the traditional definition highlighted within two-country framework does not always survive in higher dimensional settings. This is because 'third' country effects (i.e. adjustments in foreign expenditures) may reverse the positive impact that an increase in domestic demand has on its production. As such, empirical implementations of the HME hypothesis are problematic. In this paper, we try to fill this gap by proposing a revised version of the HME test, robust to an arbitrary number of countries. Using Behrens et al. (2004), which extends Krugman (1980) model to a multi-country setting, we derive a theory-founded empirical specification that accounts for a complete geographical structure of demand and proximity incentives offered to firms when choosing location sites to set up production facilities. We estimate the evolution of production structure in the EU countries for 24 manufacturing sectors over _PHONE_. We find support for the presence of the HME in a number of industries. The results also emphasize the importance of countries access to foreign markets.

Traffic Signal Warrants
Traffic signals are valuable devices for the control of vehicle and pedestrian traffic. However, because they assign the right-of-way to the various traffic movements, signals exert a profound influence on traffic flow. Properly located and operated control signals may provide for the orderly movement of traffic, increase the traffic-handling capacity of an intersection, and reduce the frequency of certain types of accidents. After extensive study and analysis, the Federal Highway Administration developed the 8 traffic signal warrants contained within the Manual On Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
Eight Warrants from the Manual On Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
These 8 warrants define minimum conditions under which signal installations may be justified. The Manual suggests that traffic control signals should not be installed unless one or more of the signal warrants are met. However, the satisfaction of a warrant or warrants is not in itself justification for a signal. Every situation is unique and warrant guidelines must be supplemented by the effects of specific site conditions and the application of good engineering judgment. Installation of a traffic signal should improve the overall safety and/or operation of an intersection and should be considered only when deemed necessary by careful traffic analysis and after less restrictive solutions have been attempted.
Warrant 1 - Eight-hour vehicular volume - at a location where a large volume of intersecting traffic exist for each of any 8 hours of an average day, is the principal reason to consider installing a traffic control signal.
Warrant 2 - Four-hour vehicular volume - at a location where traffic conditions are such that for a minimum of 1 hour of an average day, the minor street suffers undue delay when entering a major street.
Warrant 3 - Peak hour vehicular volume - at a location where traffic conditions are such that for a minimum of 1 hour of an average day, the minor street traffic suffers undue delay when entering or crossing the major street.
Warrant 4 - Pedestrian volume - at a location where the traffic volume on a major street is so heavy that pedestrians experience excessive delay in crossing the major street.
Warrant 5 - School crossing - at a location where school children cross the major street, is the principal reason to consider installing a traffic control signal.
Warrant 6 - Coordinated signal system - progressive movement in a coordinated signal system sometimes necessitates installing traffic control signals at intersections where they would not otherwise be needed in order to maintain proper platooning of vehicles.
Warrant 7 - Crash experience - at location where the severity and frequency of crashes are the principal reasons to consider installing a traffic signal.
Warrant 8 - Roadway network - at location where it might be justified to encourage concentration and organization of traffic flow on a roadway network.
Listed below are general characteristics of traffic signals:
Traffic control signals that are properly located, operated and maintained may have one or more of the following advantages:
- Signals may provide for the orderly movement of traffic by assigning right-of-way to conflicting movements of traffic.
- Signals may increase the traffic-handling capacity of an intersection by permitting conflicting streams of traffic to share the same intersection.
- Signals may reduce the frequency of certain types of accidents, especially right-angle (broadside) collisions.
- Signals may provide for continuous movement and progression of traffic through coordination with surrounding traffic signals.
- Signals may interrupt heavy traffic to allow both vehicular and pedestrian traffic to cross.
Traffic control signals may have one or more of the following disadvantages:
- Signals may increase delay - both overall intersection delay and/or specific movement delay.
- Signals may encourage the use of alternate and/or less adequate routes by drivers wishing to avoid the signal.
- Signals may encourage increased volumes of traffic on the minor street by drivers wishing to use the signal.
- Signals may encourage disobedience and disregard of traffic control devices. (During periods of lesser volume on the main street, drivers on the minor street may have sufficient gaps to cross and/or enter traffic, but be prohibited from doing so by the signal.)
- Signals may cause an increase in the frequency of certain types of accidents, especially rear-end collisions.

Commercial Greenhouse Market to Showcase Continued Growth in the Coming Years
The global commercial greenhouse market size is estimated to be valued at USD 29.6 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 50.6 billion by 2025, recording a CAGR of 11.3%
According to MarketsandMarkets, the Commercial Greenhouse Market by Product Type (Fruits, Vegetables, Flowers & Ornamentals, Nursery Crops), Type (Glass greenhouse, Plastic greenhouse), Equipment (Heating systems, Cooling systems), and Region – Global Forecast to 2025″, size is estimated to be valued at USD 29.6 billion in 2020. It is projected to reach USD 50.6 billion by 2025, recording a CAGR of 11.3% in terms of value. The growth of the market can be attributed to the rising demand for food due to the growing population and climate change, which affects the yield of crops. Also, growing knowledge about commercial greenhouse technology for higher yield will provide various growth opportunities for the commercial greenhouse market in the coming years.
Commercial Greenhouse Market
Commercial Greenhouse Market
Commercial greenhouse horticulture began by using soil as the base for all plants due to its easy availability and less initial infrastructure costs. Commercial greenhouses offer different types of covering materials such as glass or plastic roofs, and frequently glass or plastic walls. It is an emerging application with high growth potential, which uses several technologies such as heating systems, cooling systems, ventilation systems, LED grow light, communication technology, irrigation system, and control systems, among others. Heating and cooling systems are the major equipment in the commercial greenhouse market. The increasing population and demand for food in developing regions such as the Asia Pacific are boosting the growth of the commercial greenhouse market. The growing requirement for fresh food in the Middle East has helped create an opportunity for urban farming in this region. The increasing trend of rooftop farming and the rising population are the two major drivers for the market.

COVID-19 Analysis
As coronavirus has spread worldwide over the past few months, the pandemic has witnessed unimaginable devastation with the loss of thousands of lives and millions of confirmed cases of the disease. Globally, people are self-isolating and staying away from public places and events to avoid contracting or spreading the disease. The COVID-19 outbreak is negatively impacting the overall supply chain in agriculture, and, in turn, the commercial greenhouse market. Due to this outbreak, the entire world is experiencing lockdown situations. Many growers have lost distribution in stores and are either cutting back on stock or closing their doors completely. The demand for shipping and truck companies is increasing extensively. However, the supply is very less as fewer people leave their homes for errands and purchases. Consumers' have panic-purchased from grocery stores and retailers, making the businesses constantly make shipments to replenish their shelves. However, the supply-chain disruption have resulted in many growers in the greenhouse industry find themselves struggling to send their stock out. Furthermore, countries worldwide are witnessing a lockdown, and mandatory social distancing announced by the government authorities to curb the transmission of the outbreak, resulting in restricted and delayed imports and exports. This poses a drawback for commercial greenhouse suppliers, as their supply chain is not equipped to cater to the customers.
Drivers: Higher yield than traditional methods
The adoption of greenhouse farming gives more control over the environment where crops grow. If producers can manage the temperature, the irrigation process, the air humidity, and the light efficiently, they can have a good yield. By having that much control over the growth of crops, farmers keep them healthier and can predict how much they are going to harvest. The ability to control the environment helps farmers to grow flowers, vegetables, and fruit crops all year round. Growing crops in the safe environment of a greenhouse can improve the genetics of the plant, leading to the growth of healthy varieties. It also needs less water than in an open field. Also, producers do not rely on bee pollination and can utilize all the chemicals and pesticides they use to control diseases and any other vulnerability in plants. In an open field, there are locusts, other animals, and insects that can threaten the quality of the produce.
By equipment, the heating systems is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Heating systems are considered as one of the vital requirements for the effective production of plants in commercial greenhouses. Systems that provide constant temperature control and do not discharge any harmful material is contributed to the growth of the plants. A heating system is a process for maintaining the temperature at the desired level. These systems can be centrally controlled or distributed. Often, greenhouses use radiant hot water heating systems for internal heating during cold weather conditions. These heating systems use mixing valves to control the temperature of heating pipes as they can effectively regulate the temperature of heating pipes by flow control.
Make an Inquiry:
The North America region is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The North America region is expected to witness the highest growth rate during the period projected. North American growers formerly used traditional techniques to create a controlled environment within greenhouses. These techniques included insulated greenhouses, the use of hot water piping systems to increase the temperature in greenhouses, and conventional lighting technologies such as high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps and metal-halide (MH) lamps. In the last decade, commercial greenhouse growers in North America gradually began switching to automation technologies to enable plant growth throughout the year. Commercial greenhouse technologies are becoming increasingly popular in urban areas to facilitate the supply of fresh vegetables to grocery stores.

Skincare trends are closely related to general wellness trends, and precious stones are no exception. The natural properties of jade are being used to benefit skin in the form of hand-held rollers that are easy to find and use. Curious? Read on to learn more about this hot trend.
The benefits seem endless:
- Aids in product absorption – when used alongside moisturizers and serums, jade rollers can help the products penetrate the skin more easily.
- Helps offset signs of aging – use of a jade roller has been known to improve skin elasticity, tone facial muscles, and decrease wrinkles.
- Promotes healthy bodily functions – blood flow, circulation, lymphatic drainage, and collagen production are all known to get a boost from jade rollers.
- Reduces unwanted issues – using a jade roller can help eliminate inflammation, toxins, and jawline breakouts, as well as sinus pressure and sinus headaches. Stress and tension can also be lessened.
- Makes skincare feel special – incorporating a jade roller into your skincare routine can help it feel like a self-care ritual and less like a chore, allowing a good habit to form easily.
There aren't many downsides:
- Bacteria can grow – if not cleaned regularly, jade rollers can develop bacteria that's harmful to your skin. Clean regularly or after each use to avoid these kinds of issues.
- Too much pressure can be detrimental – jade rollers are intended to be used with light pressure. Anything beyond that can lead to irritation, inflammation, or it can aggravate pre-existing conditions.
Everyone loves insider tips and tricks:
- Use your nose – the bridge of your nose is a great reference point for how and where to use your roller. When in doubt, rolling upwards and out from that central point is a good practice.
- Store your roller in the fridge – the cooler the stone is, the more it will soothe your skin.
- Pair with sheet masks – Using the roller after applying a sheet mask to your face can help the mask adhere and promotes better absorption of the mask's ingredients.
- Choose the type of stone you need – rollers made with jade are very popular, but other stones are being used now as well. Rose quartz and amethyst are common, so do a little research on the properties of each to determine the best stone for you.
Combining healthy skincare practices with beneficial stones seems like a win-win situation! If you're looking at incorporating a jade roller into your routine, feel free to give Dr. Manning and team a call for their insight on the best approach.

Among its innovations, Object Matrix is showing its Process in Place (PiP) content-aware feature that aims to reduce the processing needed to index and access content.
In addition to demonstrating PiP, Object Matrix is launching its new management API software, which enables access to audit and monitoring information. It's also featuring Trashcan, which works like the trashcan on a PC, meaning that when content is accidentally deleted it can be stored on the system and recovered instead of being removed entirely.
Nicholas Pearce-Tomenius, sales and marketing director, Object Matrix, said: "We are noticing the rapid increasing of file sizes and the number of platforms for content provision. The constant changing of distribution methods means that it's more important than ever for broadcasters to be able to easily access their content and be sure that it won't be damaged or lost."

The ability to adapt is critical to survival and varies between individuals. Adaptation of one motor system may be related to the ability to adapt another. This study sought to determine whether phoria adaptation was correlated with the ability to modify the dynamics of disparity vergence. Eye movements from ten subjects were recorded during dynamic disparity vergence modification and phoria adaptation experiments. Two different convergent stimuli were presented during the dynamic vergence modification experiment: a test stimulus (4° step) and a conditioning stimulus (4° double step). Dynamic disparity vergence responses were quantified by measuring the peak velocity (°/s). Phoria adaptation experiments measured the changes in phoria over a 5-min period of sustained fixation. The maximum velocity of phoria adaptation was determined from an exponential fit of the phoria data points. Phoria and dynamic disparity vergence peak velocity were both significantly modified (P < 0.001). The maximum velocity of phoria adaptation was significantly correlated with the changes in convergence peak velocity (r > 0.89; P < 0.001). There was a strong correlation between the ability to adaptively adjust two different oculomotor parameters: a tonic and dynamic component. Future studies should investigate additional interactions between these parameters, and the ability to adaptively change other oculomotor systems such as the saccadic or smooth pursuit system. Understanding the ability to modify phoria, dynamic disparity vergence, and other oculomotor parameters can yield insights into the plasticity of short-term adaptation mechanisms.

SortedList.Item Property
Gets and sets the value associated with a specific key in a SortedList object.
Namespace: System.Collections
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
public virtual Object this [
 Object key
] { get; set; }
/** _USER_ */
public Object get_Item (Object key)
/** _USER_ */
public void set_Item (Object key, Object value)
Not applicable.
The key associated with the value to get or set.
Property Value
The value associated with the key parameter in the SortedList object, if key is found; otherwise, a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
Exception typeCondition
key is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
The property is set and the SortedList object is read-only.
The property is set, key does not exist in the collection, and the SortedList has a fixed size.
There is not enough available memory to add the element to the SortedList.
The comparer throws an exception.
You can use the Item property to access a specific element in a collection by specifying the following syntax: myCollection[key].
You can also use this property to add new elements by setting the value of a key that does not exist in the SortedList object (for example, myCollection["myNonexistentKey"] = myValue). However, if the specified key already exists in the SortedList, setting the Item property overwrites the old value. In contrast, the Add method does not modify existing elements.
A key cannot be a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), but a value can be. To distinguish between a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) that is returned because the specified key is not found and a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) that is returned because the value of the specified key is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), use the Contains method or the ContainsKey method to determine if the key exists in the list.
The elements of a SortedList are sorted by the keys either according to a specific IComparer implementation specified when the SortedList is created or according to the IComparable implementation provided by the keys themselves.
The C# language uses the this keyword to define the indexers instead of implementing the Keys property. Visual Basic implements Item as a default property, which provides the same indexing functionality.

Origin of Thought
A great effort was put in to the 2020 election cycle by many of our members. That successful effort carried candidates who share our values in government. People continue to move into the Florida, and specifically Collier County because of the freedoms offered by the way government is conducted.
Keep Our Quality of Life
We wanted to ensure the values and quality of life issue continue in all governmental bodies. That means we have to encourage newcomers to align their thinking with what has been a success in electing these values centric candidates. It means changing the voting patterns that initiated new residents to move away from their past home. This will include two main efforts:
 1. Reaching out to new residents and welcoming them to the area while providing them options to join and engage with like minded organizations. Easy to understand topics will include:
 1. No Income Tax
 2. Public Safety/Strong Police Enforcement
 3. Low Property Tax Rate
 4. Personal Freedoms
 5. Schools are Open (93% participation)
 6. Businesses are Open and Commerce Flowing
 2. Creating a method to gauge candidates based on the values that are shown on the home page of this website. This will be done via the following methods
 1. Invest in Officials that demonstrate our Values.
 2. Invest in Incumbent Candidates that demonstrate our Values.
 3. Invest in identifying, building and supporting Candidates that demonstrate our Values.
 4. Support social club Publicity efforts to target new residents with a Values broad awareness campaign.
 5. Support social club Membership, Target specific demographics for Club memberships (e.g. Young Republicans,

Real-time simulation of soil–tool interaction using advanced soil models
Gürbüz, Mücahit
Excavation work is one of the main elements needed in construction fields. To meet such a huge demand, a large number of excavators are working all over the globe. In addition, researchers and companies put enormous efforts to develop more efficient excavator models. With the advancement of technology, autonomous systems have become popular and ideal way to upgrade machines for faster, cheaper and safer production. Not surprisingly, there have been many attempts to develop fully autonomous robotic excavation systems and this has become one of the trending topics in the earth-moving industry. There are some key challenges in developing an autonomous excavation system. For example, accurate and fast prediction of resisting soil forces on the excavator bucket plays a crucial role in developing unmanned excavator systems. Current studies provide unrealistic and/or computationally expensive soil-tool interaction models. This study represents a new method to solve the interaction of excavator bucket and soil in real-time with acceptable accuracy. Through the developed accurate real-time soil-tool interaction simulation, it is also aimed to make further progress in virtual reality systems requiring real-time simulations, cabin simulators, and computer games.

The present study evaluated the effects of climate variability on maize (Zea mays L.) yield in Sri Lanka at different spatial scales. Biophysical data from the Department of Agriculture (DOA) in Sri Lanka for six major maize-growing districts (Ampara, Anuradhapura, Badulla, Hambantota, Moneragala, and Kurunegala) from 1990 to 2010 were analyzed. Simple linear regression models were fitted to observed climate data and detrended maize yield to identify significant correlations. The correlation between first differences of maize yield and climate (r) was further investigated at 0.50° grid scale using interpolated climate data. After 2003, significantly positive (p < 0.01) yield trends varied from 154 kg ha–1 yr–1 to 360 kg ha–1 yr–1. The correlations between maize yield and climate reported that five out of six districts were significant at 10% level. Rainfall had a consistent significant (p < 0.10) positive impact on maize yield in Anuradhapura, Hambantota, and Moneragala, where seasonal total rainfall together with high temperature ("hot-dry") are the key limitations. Further, the seasonal mean temperature had a negative impact on maize yield in Moneragala ("hot-dry"), the only district that showed high temperatures. Badulla district ("cold-dry") reported a significant (r = 0.38) positive correlation with mean seasonal temperature, indicating higher potential toward increasing temperatures. Each 1°C rise in seasonal mean temperature reduced maize yield by about 5% from 1990 to 2010. Overall, there was a reasonable correlation between district maize yield and seasonal climate in most of the districts within the maize belt of Sri Lanka.

Stencil thickness makes a difference! Thicker stencils allow more paste to be deposited which is good for large parts and connectors but can cause shorts with finer pitch parts.
To calculate the optimal stencil thickness for fine pitch placement, IPC standard #7525 states:
Stencil Thickness = 2.64 + 0.0831 * Pitch of component (in mils)
So, say for an FT232RL chip, which is a SSOP part with 0.65mm pitch. First figure out the pitch in thousands of an inch:
0.65 mm / 25.4 = 0.0256 inches = 25.6 mils
Then calculate according to the equation above
2.64 + 0.0831 * 25.6 = 2.13 + 2.64 = 4.77 mil
So for SSOP parts, 4 to 5 mil is the thickest you should go


How to Keep Your Mop Sanitary
Wet mop cleaning wooden floor
The Spruce / Ulyana Verbytska
Mops are great tools for keeping floors clean. Foot traffic can lead to dirt and germs in your house. Even if you sweep or vacuum regularly, mopping is the best way to clean hard floors. A common concern about mopping is its effectiveness. A dirty mop will just move the filth around the house and not clean the floors. However, a clean mop and good mopping technique will effectively remove grime and germs from the floor.
 - Once mildew has begun to grow, the mop is no longer effective as a cleaning tool. Mopping with a mildew-ridden mop will just spread bacteria and odor around your house.
How to Keep a Mop Clean
With a few easy steps, you can keep your mop sanitary so that it successfully cleans your floors.
 - Rinse the mop thoroughly after each use. When you are finished mopping, rinse any cleaning solution and dirt from the mop in a sink until the mop is completely clean. Traces of dirt will spread grime during the next use, and leftover soap residue can damage your mop.
 - Wash your mop. If your mop is machine washable, use the washing machine to clean it. Follow the cleaning directions on the mop. A gentle cycle at the hottest temperature is usually recommended. If the mop head is not machine washable, create a mixture of half water, half bleach in a clean bucket (enough to cover the mop head), and soak the mop head for 15 minutes. Rinse the mixture from the mop until the water runs completely clear.
 - Allow the mop to completely dry. To prevent bacteria growth make sure the mophead is dry before storing it away. To do this, start by wringing the mop out as much as you can. Then place the mop head outside on a clothesline; sunshine will naturally kill bacteria and mold. If that's not possible, stand the mop upright in a bathtub or other well ventilated and dry area. The goal is to avoid mildew and bacteria growth.
 - Store the mop properly. A cool, dry place is a perfect storage location. Try hanging it so the mop head avoids brushing against the floor. If you've allowed the mop to dry thoroughly, the mop should be fine for the next use.
 - Replace the mop head when needed. Prevent your mop from becoming a cleaning hazard by replacing the mop head. Aim for a replacement every two to three months or sooner if it looks very dirty. Your floors are only as clean as your mop head; a soiled and worn mop will not be effective.

Mopping Tips
To keep your house clean, you may want to consider mopping with two buckets. Keep plain water for rinsing in one bucket and detergent in the other bucket. Start with the detergent bucket, mop the floor, and then dip the dirty mop into the rinsing bucket. Squeeze out the water and continue alternating buckets until the floor is done. If either water bucket becomes too soiled, replace it with fresh water and cleaning solution. Try mopping the bathroom last, or even using a separate mop for just the bathroom. These rooms are full of germs and can lead to cross-contamination if a dirty mop gets used around the house.
Finally, although traditional mops are very absorbent and have good scrubbing capacity, you could consider a more hygienic flat mop as a potential alternative.

Nonwovens are an important component of different products of several uses, e.g. transport of humidity in sanitary products, insulation materials or filters. Nonwovens are usually produced on large engineering facilities. For this, experimental studies of design with regard to the optimization of these nonwoven-structures prove to be very difficult.
Influence Design Parameters
There are so many parameters of design, as for example fibers, surface weight or type of nonwoven bonding and finishing that are affecting the properties of nonwovens. For the change of one single parameter, e.g. the material of fiber, it is necessary to adapt the whole process of fabrication from the spinning of the fibers via their stacking to the nonwoven hardening.
Following the production of such a prototype a time consuming and cost-intensive characterization of the properties of nonwovens carried out experimentally has to be done. Therefore, for this reason detailed studies considering several parameters of design are uneconomic.

Science Fair Project Encyclopedia
SPIHT (Set Partition in Hierarchical Trees) is an image compression algorithm that exploits the inherent similarities across subbands in a wavelet decomposition of an image. It implies uniform quantization and bit allocation applied after wavelet decomposition.
The algorithm codes the most important (in the sense of MSE reduction) wavelet transform coefficients in priority, and transmits the bits so that an increasingly refined copy of the original image is obtained with time.
The order in which coefficients are transmitted is recovered on the decoder using information of comparisons and sets being examined for significance during the sort, sets are created using hierarchical tree structure, i.e. Set Partition in Hierarchical Trees.
One of the advantages with SPIHT is that it produces an (optimal) embedded bitstream. This means that the bitstream can be truncated at any instant, and is then guaranteed to yield the best possible reconstruction.
