The Item Importer is a machine added by Project Red which works like a diode for the Pressure tube and the Pressure Resistance tube. When activated by redstone, this machine blocks items from passing through, redirecting them instead to an alternate route. If none is found, it will route back to its source until either a new route is created or the machine is deactivated. It can also be used to pull items out of an inventory and put them into a pressure tube network if both a redstone pulse is applied, and the wooden part is facing a valid inventory.
If the mod MineChem is installed, then the Item Importer can be decomposed with the Chemical Decomposer into different chemical compounds of MineChem.
Example of a tube system. The item passes from Block Breaker (left) to an Item Importer (middle) into a chest (right) connected with Pressure tubes.
The Item Importer allows items to pass in the tube system of Project Red, but only in one direction. The sides can not be used. The machine pumps automatically from the wooden side to the cobblestone side. When provided with a redstone signal, this machine will not allow items to pass, nor will the path be considered valid by the routing logic. This gives it functionality similar to a relay, allowing you to control when an inventory is connected to the pipe network. This is especially useful if you want to count the contents of a chest designed for automation without its inventory constantly changing.
It is also possible to use a comparator to ensure that chest is only filled up to a certain point with a product, before moving on to the next.


Intermittent poor performance when the MDB's are getting messages from MQ queues
Technote (troubleshooting)
You have MDB's driven by messages from WebSphere MQ queues. Intermittently the MDB's experience a delay where it may take up to sixteen seconds for the retrieval of each message. There is no gradual degradation. The MDB's are running fine one minute, then they will experience these delays and then resume normal processing. The MDB's will usually only experience these delays for a short time, usually 30 seconds or less, before they start retrieving messages in a matter of a few milliseconds again.
A review of MQ and MQ JMS traces at the time of the delays reveals that the messages were on the queue and available at the time when the MDB's were experiencing a delay. The MDB's are doing a browse of the messages prior to doing a MQGET to remove the message from the queue. The delayed messages have a priority of 5 in the MQ message descriptor (MQMD) while most of the messages being browsed have a priority 0 or 4, which are lower priorities.
The observed delay is that the thread which is doing MQGET is using the MQGMO_BROWSE_NEXT option and it has browsed to a later point in the queue than the point where the priority 5 messages were committed. Each browsing thread from the MDB's has a browse cursor whose position in the queue dictates the next message that thread is able to get. Messages committed to the queue before the browse cursor's current position are not gettable by that thread until it issues a new MQGET call using the MQGMO_BROWSE_FIRST option. The browse cursor is then reset to point at the start of the queue and therefore the higher priority messages are now visible to the browsing thread.
The delayed messages are successfully delivered after the browse thread uses MQGMO_BROWSE_FIRST. The time delay is accounted for by the application making MQGMO_BROWSE_NEXT + MQGMO_WAIT calls at a time when the browse cursor has moved past the priority 5 messages.
Here is an example to illustrate the concept of how a browse cursor works and why these delays are occurring. Suppose that a priority queue contains the following sequence of messages:
Message A priority 4
Message B priority 4
Message C priority 3
Message B was put onto the queue after Message A, hence why it appears second. Messages at the same priority are stored in arrival sequence. Now suppose the queue is opened by a single application which then issues a get with MQGMO_BROWSE_FIRST. The application's browse cursor is pointed at Message A and MQ returns a copy of Message A in the application buffer. Since this was a browse call, Message A remains on the queue.
The queue now looks like this:
Message A priority 4 <-- application browse cursor
Message B priority 4
Message C priority 3
Now suppose that a second application opens the queue for output and puts a new message (D) onto the queue at priority 5. In an MQ priority queue, 5 is a higher priority than 4 so this message is added at the start of the queue.
The queue now looks like this:
Message D priority 5
Message A priority 4 <-- application browse cursor
Message B priority 4
Message C priority 3
When the browsing application issues its next get with MQGMO_BROWSE_NEXT then its browse cursor moves down to the next message on the queue after the current position and the application is given a copy of Message B.
The queue now looks like this:
Message D priority 5
Message A priority 4
Message B priority 4 <-- application browse cursor
Message C priority 3
Even though Message D is earlier in the queue and has not been seen by the application yet, the design of MQGMO_BROWSE_NEXT is to move down to the next message in the queue. The browse continues in this manner until the browsing application reaches the end of the queue. At this point, the application receives reason code 2033 (MQRC_NO_MSG_AVAILABLE) and therefore knows it has reached the end. So it then issues a get with MQGMO_BROWSE_FIRST again, which resets the browse cursor to the top of the queue and so now it will get a copy of Message D.
The performance delay in this case was accounted for by the time it took to browse the remainder of the queue before re-issuing a get with the MQGMO_BROWSE_FIRST option. During that time, the higher priority message sat at the top of the queue without being processed until the browse first call was issued.
Resolving the problem
There are various strategies for handling the situation differently, and so avoiding the symptom.
One simple option is to change the queue to be a First In First Out (FIFO) queue. You can do this using runmqsc to "ALTER QLOCAL(QNAME) MSGDLVSQ(FIFO)". This would cause messages to be delivered in arrival sequence instead of priority.
From an application server perspective, there are a couple of options available to help ensure messages are processed in a more timely manner.
1. Reconfigure the application server to use non-ASF mode. Using non-ASF mode changes the mechanism that the application server uses to get messages so that, rather than performing a browse of the queue, it simply issues MQGET calls. This means that MDB's will always be given the message that is currently at the top of the queue. More details about non-ASF mode, including how to configure the application server to use this mode of operation, can be found in the following developerWorks article titled "When to use ASF and non-ASF modes to process messages in WebSphere Application Server".
2. Change the custom property eoqtimeout. When scanning the queue for a message, once the queue agent reaches the end of the queue, this is the length of time it waits before going back to the top of the queue and beginning a new scan. Information about how to change this timeout value can be found in the technote titled "How to modify the Generic JVM Arguments and Java system properties for a WAS server".

Turning Toward the Heart, Awakening to the Sufi Way, Forty Questions and Answers with Shaykh al-Tariqat Hazrat Azad Rasool
Excerpt from: "Question 35: Awakening the Heart
What does it mean for the heart to become "awakend" or "enlightened"?
turning_heart……As the salik devotes more time to muraqabah (meditation), the heart continues to be polished until it becomes like a mirror, accurately reflecting events and circumstances around it. The heart is "open" when the remembrance of God engages it fully. Light suffuses the heart, revealing aspects of reality that previously lay hidden. There dawns a new, more complete understanding of life in all its aspects. In short, the seeker is enlightened.
The Indian master Sayyid 'Abd al Bari Shah (r.a.) (d. 1900) once said, "To restore life to a dead person is not a miracle." His student Hazrat Hamid Hasan 'Alawi (r.a.) (d.1959) asked in amazement, "If reviving the dead does not constitute a miracle, what does?" Sayyid 'Abd al-Bari Shah (r.a.) replied, "The greater task is to awaken a lifeless heart. To awaken a dead heart is not within the reach of any person unless and until the grace of God supports this effort".

pooling {baggr}R Documentation
Pooling metrics for baggr
Compute statistics relating to heterogeneity (whole model) and pooling (for each group) given a baggr meta-analysis model. The statistics are the pooling metric by Gelman & Pardoe (2006) or its complement, the I-squared statistic.
pooling(bg, type = c("groups", "total"), summary = TRUE)
heterogeneity(bg, summary = TRUE)
output of a baggr() function
In pooling calculation is done for each of the "groups" (default) or for "total" hypereffect(s). See Details section for how calculation is done.
logical; if FALSE a whole vector of pooling values is returned, otherwise only the means and intervals
Pooling statistic describes the extent to which group-level estimates of treatment effect are "pooled" (or pulled!) closer to average treatment effect in the meta-analysis model. If pooling = "none" or "full" in baggr, then the values are always 0 or 1, respectively. If pooling = "partial", the value is somewhere between 0 and 1.
Formulae for the calculations below are provided in main package vignette.
Matrix with mean and intervals for chosen pooling metric, each row corresponding to one meta-analysis group.
Group pooling
This is the calculation done by pooling() if type = "groups" (default). See vignette("baggr") for more details on pooling calculations.
In a partial pooling model (see baggr), group k (e.g. study) has standard error of treatment effect estimate, se_k. The treatment effect (across k groups) is variable across groups, with hyper-SD parameter σ_(τ).
The quantity of interest is ratio of variation in treatment effects to the total variation. By convention, we subtract it from 1, to obtain a pooling metric p.
p = 1 - (σ_(τ)^2 / (σ_(τ)^2 + se_k^2))
Note that, since σ_{τ}^2 is a Bayesian parameter (rather than a single fixed value), p is also a parameter. It is typical for p to have very high dispersion, as in many cases we cannot precisely estimate σ_{τ}. To obtain the whole distribution of_p_ (rather than summarised values), set summary=FALSE.
Overall pooling in the model
Typically researchers want to report a single measure from the model, relating to heterogeneity across groups. This is calculated by either pooling(mymodel, type = "total") or simply heterogeneity(mymodel)
In many contexts, i.e. medical statistics, it is typical to report 1-P, called I^2 (see Higgins and Thompson, 2002; sometimes another statistic, H^2 = 1 / P, is used). Higher values of I-squared indicate higher heterogeneity; Von Hippel (2015) provides useful details for I-squared calculations.
To obtain such single estimate we need to substitute average variability of group-specific treatment effects and then calculate the same way we would calculate p. By default we use the mean across k se_k^2 values. Typically, implementations of I^2 in statistical packages use a different calculation for this quantity, which may make I's not comparable when different studies have different SE's.
Same as for group-specific estimates, P is a Bayesian parameter and its dispersion can be high.
Relationship to R-squared statistic

Geert Jan Jansen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Geert Jan Jansen (born 1943) is a Dutch painter and art forger, who was arrested in 1994.
Geert Jan Jansen was born in Waalre in the Netherlands. His engineer father was fond of art and Jansen became an art student. He befriended a US art dealer, Michel Podulke, who ran a gallery called Mokum in Amsterdam.
Later, Jansen opened his own galleries, Jacob and Raam, but was not particularly successful. When his business went badly, he decided to sign posters of Karel Appel's lithographs and sell them as originals. Later, he made his first Karel Appel forgery and sold it for 2,600 guilders. Thus encouraged, he sent another forgery to London; auction house sent a photograph to Appel, who stated that it was genuine. The gouache was sold at a record price.
In 1981, Dutch police were informed about a forged Bart van der Leck painting. They searched Jansen's house in Edam but found nothing. They did find 76 forged Appel lithographs in the ceiling of a local warehouse, but charges were not pressed. Short of evidence, the attorney general cut a deal with Jansen: He would not be charged if he would not make forgeries for three years.
In 1988, Jansen released another batch of Appel paintings. When they were found to be forgeries, gallery owners blamed each other. In June 1988, police confiscated hundreds of Appel forgeries from the MAT gallery in Amsterdam. The owner of the gallery said that he had bought 100 Appel forgeries from the Tripple Tree Gallery, who had bought them from a dealer Henk Ernste in Paris. Ernste was later arrested but the case was settled with a 5.5 million guilder fine. During the furor, Jansen moved from the Netherlands to France with his mistress.
In March 1994, "Jan van den Bergen" came to the auction house Karl & Faber in Munich. He claimed to be an art dealer from Orléans and presented his business card. With him he had a Chagall drawing, an Asger Jorn gouache and a Karel Appel painting. The first two had written certificates of authenticity. He wanted them to be auctioned quickly and left in a hurry.
Expert Sue Cubitt of the auction house had the works examined. The Chagall certificate had a misprint and she became suspicious. Jan Nieuwenhuizen Segaar, a representative of Karel Appel, contacted the artist who said that work was his but Cubitt was still suspicious. The Chagall committee in Paris verified that the certificate was a forgery and therefore the drawing was also a forgery. A similar thing happened with the Asger Jorn certificate. The auction house decided to withdraw all the works from sale because it could not guarantee their authenticity. Sue Cubitt decided to inform Ernst Schöller of the Stuttgart Fine Art and Antiquities squad.
When Sue Cubitt and the police checked other auction catalogues, they noticed that similar works of art had been offered for sale and discovered Van den Bergen had offered these and other works for sale in auction houses around Europe. When Schöller checked the Orléans gallery address, he found that it was a fake; there was a wine bottle company at that address.
The trail of false addresses companies led Schöller and the French police to a farm in La Chaux near Poitiers. Jansen - who had used the name Van den Bergen - and his associate were arrested May 6, 1994.
When police investigated the farm, they found 1600 forged artworks. Forged artists included Cocteau, Dufy, Ferdinand Erfmann, Charles Eyck, Leo Gestel, Bart van der Leck, Matisse, Miró and the most popular target of forgery, Picasso.
French police had few leads and their appeal through the media brought no reports of forgery. Six years later, they checked the auction records of a Drouot gallery where Jansen had traded most of his forgeries through a number of different false names. They confiscated some suspicious paintings and threatened their buyers with complicity in the crime if they did not press charges against Jansen.
Jansen went on trial in September 2000 in Orléans. By that time, the police had thousands of forgeries. During the trial Jansen's lawyer demanded that the works not to be destroyed in case there were real works among them. However, most of the charges were later dropped - two of the buyers disappeared - and only two remained.
Eventually Jansen was sentenced to one year imprisonment and four additional years suspended sentence. He was exiled from France for three years. All of his works were to be destroyed. Jansen planned to appeal.

Points of Interest:
- See an unusual geologic feature – a chert shut-ins, cliffs and wet-weather waterfall.
- Enjoy a scenic Ozark creek with chert boulders and a large shelter cave.
Natural Features Description: Solid beds of chert such as this are uncommon and here the chert is 40 feet thick. This chert, unlike the common chert rocks found throughout the Ozarks, is completely silicified forming these massive beds. Shut-ins occur where a broader stream is "shut in" to a narrow canyon-like valley. Shut-ins typically occur in Missouri where streams flow through softer sedimentary bedrock materials such as dolomite or sandstone and then encounter a more resistant rock, in this case chert. Chert is composed of silica dioxide and is highly resistant to weathering.
This area is very scenic, especially after a rain when water cascades down over a 10 feet tall waterfall and through a chert shut-in stream. A spring-fed creek keeps water flowing to some degree through the shut-in typically six to eight months of the year. The chert cliffs support a number of lichens and mosses as well as a few hardy fern species such as hairy lip fern. The name "Cowards Hollow" is thought to have been derived from local legend that the area's shelter cave was used as a hideout from Civil War deserters.
This natural area is within the Mark Twain National Forest. From Doniphan, take Highway 160 west to Highway C. Go north on C for 13 miles. Turn left (west) on to Forest Service Road 3142 (gravel). Head west for 2.5 miles. Turn right (north) on to Forest Service Road 4875. Travel 0.3 mile and park. Walk the trail to the north crossing under the powerline and into the natural area. A map and compass are recommended to explore this area. Hunting and fishing are permitted.

Scrum for Trello
Scrum for Trello adds functionality to the awesome for use in Scrum projects.
Add estimates or record time-spent directly on Trello cards. Shows sums at the top of each list and the top right corner of each board.
This is a free and open source extension in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
To use, simply open a Trello card click the title of the card to edit it. There are buttons with Fibonacci numbers (1, 2, 3, 5, 8,...etc.) to let you quickly add an estimate. You can also type in the estimate or the time-spent. To type an estimate, just surround it in parentheses like this: (4) to type the amount of time-spent, put that in square brackets like this: [2]. Those numbers can appear anywhere in the title, but a common convention is to put the estimate at the beginning of the card and the time-spent at the end, like this: "(8) Create Firefox Extension [4.5]". Decimal numbers are accepted for both values.
Integration with Burndown for Trello
The 'Burndown for Trello' extension adds burndown charts to Trello boards. Since it uses estimates and time-spent, Burndown For Trello has integrated with Scrum for Trello. If you have a Pro account on Burndown for Trello, it will use the estimates and time-spent that you enter in Scrum for Trello, so you never have to re-enter them.

A Rework Loop is a situation where a step in a process is repeated in order to correct a defect; also known as backtracking. Rework Loops are work that must be done over and over. They often become an accepted part of the process as people get used to them over time. To find Rework Loops, look for places where large amount of work move back in the process to be fixed.
Rework Loops are Non-Value Adding Activities and are undesirable, as they add to cost and cycle time.

On one hand, where the pandemic had gotten the whole world upside down, the work from home (WFH) culture had taken the internet on the roll. From memes to sharing the WFH moments on the internet, people sought all the opportune moments to deal with the global crisis in a mood-light way.
Amid all the dismay, however, one thing that gained tremendous popularity was Pyjama! While the clothing had been a go-to for so many around the world, the lockdown and WFH culture had gained it the status of 'the new cool.'
But here's research to your surprise that may make you think over slipping out of your PJs and hopping into something else, a clothing that is more put-together maybe. Australian researchers have established a link between working in the Pyjamas during the pandemic and deteriorating mental health.
On taking a look at the effects of wearing pyjamas while working, researchers found its astonishing association with recurrent reporting of poor mental health.
As per the study conducted by Australian researchers, 41% of people say that they experienced an enhancement in their productivity when working from home. However, more than one-third of the participants have reported a severe deterioration in their mental health.
Further, 59% of people who wore pyjamas at least once a week while working from home, admitted to experiencing a decline in mental health, as compared to 26% of those who did not wear pyjamas during the day.
Reportedly, researchers also suggest that clothing can have a significant impact on cognition and mental health. Here's how they explained it: "Although we cannot determine whether wearing pyjamas is the cause or consequence of deteriorating mental health, appreciation of the effect of clothing on cognition and mental health is increasing, as it has been observed in hospitalized patients."
It is also observed that if the patients are motivated to wear normal daytime clothes instead of pyjamas, it can add to their mental well-being and even decrease the effect of depression.
Researchers advise changing clothes before beginning the work with the view to lessen the negative effects that the pandemic restrictions have caused to our mental health.
They say, "The simple advice to get changed before beginning work in the morning might partially protect against the effects of Covid‐19 restrictions on mental health, and would be less expensive than the 'fashionable' sleep or loungewear gaining popularity as working from home becomes the norm."

Yes! Chewing gum reduces the time to the first flatus (first time passing gas) after an abdominal surgery and it decreases the time to the first bowel movement. Gum has helped these two actions occur sooner so that the patient can go home from the hospital 1/2 day sooner!
After abdominal surgery the intestines often feel "messed with"– kind of like when you were a kid and you poked an earthworm. After being manipulated, the bowel (and the earthworm) do not move like they are supposed to. This medical term is called a postoperative ileus. Postoperative ileus is common and may lead to prolonged hospitalization because no doctor will send you home without passing gas and having a bowel movement after abdominal surgery. Chewing gum may stimulate the cephalo-vagal system and intestinal motility while encouraging the flow of pancreatic juices and saliva.
This outcome of earlier flatus and bowel movement was most pronounced in patients with colorectal surgery and least pronounced in patients undergoing cesarean delivery. Some studies also showed less nausea and vomiting among those who chewed gum.
I hope this helps.

The development of the Child and Adolescent Coping Inventory (Cobb, Gwanter, & Newcomb, 1987) is described and reliability and validity statistics are reported. The inventory consists of a parent form and a child form. The parent form contains 91 descriptions of children's behaviors when faced with difficulties. The child form is in interview format and asks children to describe seven positive and negative events and their reactions to them.The Inventory in both forms is capable of obtaining both observable and subjective reactions of children to stress. Reliability and validity is stronger for the child form. Suggestions are made for possible modifications to the Inventory.

From Zappa Wiki Jawaka
Like the catalog number, the ISRC and the EAN code, the matrix number is an additional information which can help to identify a sound recording. It consists of engraved (and/or printed) characters located around the label of a vinyl record. By extension, the terms "matrix numbers" may also refer to the complete sequence of codes visible around the inner circle of a CD. These characters and codes are used by the factories in the stages of records pressing.
It is important to notice that:
- several records manufactured in the same series usually have exactly the same matrix numbers, this is not a unique identifier for each individual item
- records containing different sound masters might have same matrix number, so this might not be a unique and infallible way to distinguish different versions
- reversely, records having exactly the same content can have different matrix numbers
Definition from the Elektra Master Discography FAQ by Andy Finney, August 2006:
- "When a vinyl disc was made, the first stage (after recording the music of course) was to cut an [sic] master disc, usually on an oversized disc made of aluminium coated in acetate or lacquer. A heated stylus (sometimes cooled by helium) would literally cut the groove of the disc into the lacquer and this master would be coated, electroplated (usually more than once) and finally stamped in a steam-heated press to produce the vinyl disc. In order to identify the acetate disc used to make a particular disc the cutting engineer would inscribe or stamp a reference number into the surface of the cut disc, between the end of the music and the space for the label. This is where the run-out-groove or scroll would be. Often this so-called Matrix Number would just be the disc catalogue number with A or B or 1 or 2 after it to show which side. Sometimes obliterated matrix numbers on discs can show changed release schedules.
Some companies (such as EMI on discs such as the 1960s Beatles albums) decoupled matrix numbers from catalogue numbers although there would almost always be a listing of the matrix number on the disc label. Even in these cases the matrix for the 'A' side would be lower than that for the 'B' side. In this way you can often identify discs where the A and B sides have been 'flipped'. Other information would sometimes be added to denote the pressing plant (many Elektra discs have this since individual LPs were pressed in more than one plant across the US) or give a sequence number to the cut or stamper. In the 1970s it became the fashion for disc cutting engineers to'sign' their matrixes. (An example being Porky's Prime Cut') Sometimes cryptic remarks would be inscribed, and on one notorious occasion an Elvis Costello album had a message in the run-out asking people to phone the record company press officer and claim a prize! (But I digress.)
Elektra albums usually had matrix number consisting of the catalogue number and the side, but the 10-inch discs had JH numbers."
For instance, the matrix numbers engraved on Baby Snakes BPR 1115 side 1 are P. BPR-1115-AS-RC1 (1) Dinkum
The following paragraphs are illustrated with Francesco Zappa RCD 10546 which matrix numbers are IFPI 2U3Q WEA mfg. OLYPHANT ifpi L901 W6063 A4 P2 310546-2 01 M1S1
The SID Code is an anti-piracy standard defined by the IFPI and Philips in order to track the source of optical discs mastering and replication. The use of SID Codes started in 1994 and grew until nowadays it has become almost systematic.
Since not all plants have both mastering and replication facilities, two identification codes have been implemented:
- the Mastering SID Code that identifies the plant that manufactured the master
- the Mould SID Code that identifies the plant where the disc was replicated
Mastering SID Code
Sometimes also refered to as LBR Code (Laser Beam Recorder Code), it indicates the plant and LBR that manufactured the master or stamper used for the disc production.
It consists of the letters "IFPI" followed by a four or five alphanumeric digit code commencing with the letter "L".
Example: the Mastering SID Code printed on Francesco Zappa RCD 10546 is IFPI L901
The Mastering SID Code must:
- Be positioned between 18.0 mm from the centre of the disc and the start of the "lead-in" (which is at a radius of 22.9 mm from the centre).
- Be a minimum of 0.5 mm high.
- Be legible without magnification.
- Be located in the metallised region of the disc.
- Read from left to right when viewed from the read-out, or play side of the disc. However many records seem not to follow this recommendation.
- Be installed in either the firmware of the LBR (i.e. the software that forms an intrinsic part of the machinery and is not readily accessible by the operator of the facility) or embedded in the system controller (i.e. the signal processing system that controls the operation of the LBR) in such a way that the operator of the system is not able to alter or remove/disable the code.
It is recommended that the space allocated exclusively for the code (determined by the user and LBR supplier) shall consist of an arc of 30º for the Mastering SID Code. It is mandatory that it is clearly separate from other features.
Mould SID Code
The Mould SID Code indicates the plant where the disc was replicated and a serial number which can be set freely by the plant.
It consists of the letters "IFPI" followed by a four or five alphanumeric digit code. The first two digits (in the case of a four digit SID Code) or the first three digits (in the case of a five digit SID Code) are assigned to the operator of the manufacturing or mastering plant by Philips Intellectual Property & Standards. The last two digits of this code are allocated by the plant to give each mould on the site, including spare moulds, a unique code.
Example: the Mould SID Code printed on Francesco Zappa RCD 10546 is IFPI 2U3Q
- The implementation guide implicitely recommends not to use "I", "O", "S" and "Q". However many records seem not to follow this recommendation.
- The Mould SID Code must be positioned within the zone that has a maximum radius of 22.5 mm.
- If Burst Cutting Area - Code is used, then the position of the Mould SID Code will be adjusted to compensate.
- The Mould SID Code must not be imprinted in the clamping area.
- The Mould SID Code must not be placed in an area that obscures the Mastering SID Code or any other user defined characters.
- The Mould SID Code must be imprinted on all substrates whether containing valid programme content or not, including blank discs, and even if not metallised. Overprinting of the Mould Code for decorative purposes is permissible.
Code 39 (barcode) is used to encode uppercase alphanumeric characters (A through Z and 0 and 9) and a few other characters such as the dollar or minus signs. This barcode is called Code 39 because there are 9 light and dark bars in each character code, and 3 of these bars are wide (39 means 3 "wide" of 9 "bars").
Example: the barcode printed on Francesco Zappa RCD 10546 is
The DVD SID Code follows the same rules as the CD plus addionnal requirements:
- The Mastering SID Code must be placed within the zone that has a maximum radius of 22.5 mm.
- If Burst Cutting Area - Code is used, then the position of the Mastering Code should be adjusted to compensate.
- No minimum radius is specified, but due regard should be paid to the following points:
- The Mastering SID Code must be located in a metallised region of the disc.
- The Mastering SID Code must not be obscured by the stack ring.
- It is recommended that the space allocated exclusively for the code (determined by the user and LBR supplier) shall consist of an arc of 30º for the current code. It is mandatory that it is clearly separate from other features.
- A further arc of 30º shall be reserved for future use.
Single layer, single side disc
If the dummy side of the disc is made from a scrap program disc, it shall bear the SID Code, even if not metallised.
Dual layer, single side disc
The Mastering SID Code must be recorded for both layers (Layer 1 and Layer 0 in DVD format discs). At least one of the Mastering SID Codes (for either Layer 1 or Layer 0) must be clearly visible.
Single layer, double side disc
The Mastering SID Codes must be recorded on both sides of the disc. It is desirable that both Mastering SID Codes are clearly visible, but it is acceptable if the code is obscured due to restrictions of the printed area.

How to best set up your Google Groups
What is the best way to set up your Google Groups for ease of use in Happeo (and general usage)
What do I use Google Groups for?
Typically there are two main reasons for setting up Google Groups. The first one is communication. It provides an easy method to reach large groups of users without having to select or add them all manually. The second method is to use the groups for sharing. The groups can be used for giving access to documents and other Google resources, this is specifically handy when giving out access to Shared Drives (formerly called Team Drives) in Google. For example, if a document or a shared drive is shared on a group level, all members in that group will have access to the content along with future members. For Happeo, we also use these same groups to set up access within the Happeo platform. This makes it easy to give access to a Channel or Page to the right group of users.
Read more about the difference between Groups and Organizational Units here.
Most organizations already have some user groups set up. The most common group we see in organizations is the group "all". This group contains all (active) employees with an account in the organization. This means that with one single Group you will be able to reach everyone. But what is a good structure to follow when trying to move down from there?
Setting up a good Google Group structure
Here are the guidelines that we recommend when setting up your Google Groups:
Besides the top-level group that contains all (active) employees, we recommend moving towards a structure that contains all (geographic) locations. This could be narrowed down to multiple levels. Continent - Country - Region - City - Location.
On the other hand, you might also want to add groups that are focused on functional elements, the easiest differentiator here is Department.
As a final step, we recommend setting up the geographic departmental groups (Geography + Department), this leads to a structure that makes it easy to reach very specific audiences. To still ensure that this can be managed properly, we recommend making use of the "nested groups" principle.
Screen Shot 2020-04-28 at 10.27.26
On the top we can see the distinction between geographic locations, and on the left, we see the departments. At each beginning of the table, you can see that there is an overlapping Group that combines them all. Setting it up this way means that every user in your organization will be part of at least one group, but likely is part of multiple groups.
The top-level in the hierarchy is the "ALL" group, below this group there are location groups, for example, "UK All", below that there are specific department groups for each market, for example, UK Marketing).
Screen Shot 2020-04-28 at 10.28.44
All employees should be a member of ONE of the local department groups. The department group is then a member of the group above (nested group).
If an employee has multiple roles (like marketing and sales), or responsibilities in more than one market, they can in those cases, be a part of multiple department groups.
Screen Shot 2020-04-28 at 10.29.55
The department groups are also organized into department "ALL"-groups. This means that if you, for example, want to reach everyone in IT in all markets you can use the group "IT All", which will reach all IT departments at the organization.

Rank tests for clustered survival data when dependent subunits are randomized.
In clustered survival data, subunits within each cluster share similar characteristics, so that observations made from them tend to be positively correlated. In clinical trials, the correlated subunits from the same cluster are often randomized to different treatment groups. In this case, the variance formulas of the standard rank tests such as the logrank, Gehan-Wilcoxon or Prentice-Wilcoxon, proposed for independent samples, need to be adjusted for intracluster correlations both within and between treatment groups for testing equality of marginal survival distributions. In this paper we derive a general form of simple variance formulas of the rank tests when subunits from the same cluster are randomized into different treatment groups. Extensive simulation studies are conducted to investigate small sample performance of the variance formulas. We compare our non-parametric rank tests based on the adjusted variances with one from a shared frailty model, which is an optimal semi-parametric testing procedure when the intracluster correlations within and between groups are the same.

Teléfilo Dictionary: Mary Sue
When the star of a series, especially one of adventure and mystery is built, there is always the temptation to do too perfect. It is the most handsome of all, the smartest, the nicest and most empathy with others, the more proficient with technology, the best pilots a ship and shoot a weapon, the more fun … Such characters have a quite specific name. Mary Sue
It is true that, if they refer to a male character, called Marty Stu (or Gary Stu), but the Mary Sue term is more entrenched, especially because female characters encompasses that are built a way to escape the traditional clichés in which usually fall, as being only the bride, or the best friend, and end up falling in other different.
The origin of the Mary Sue
Where does use this name when defining what we could say that is a pluperfect a bluestocking? Apparently, its first use was in 1973, in a parody account of ' Star Trek ' called "A Trekkie's tale 'and written by Paula Smith. In it, the main purpose of satire were the fanfics of the series and, especially, the introduction of characters too perfect and did everything right.
The heroine of" A Trekkie's Tale 'is Mary Sue, who describes himself as the youngest Starfleet lieutenant, fifteen and a half years but Captain Kirk falls in love immediately and saves the crew of the Enterprise with many skills. It's so pluperfect and so beautiful that obviously has to be parodic, but is an archetype that may be difficult to resist.
The example often given of character that's folded to the terms of a Mary Sue It is actually a Marty Stu and Wesley Crusher, the wunderkind ' Star Trek. The new generation '. He was intelligent, always had a solution for everything, the writers gave great importance … Although viewers did not fall too well. Wesley was the closest thing to the child repellent Vicente of popular expression.
A character too perfect
How can recognize a Mary Sue? Generally, because they a set of skills that can border on the unbelievable, everyone constantly talks about how brilliant and great it is, and they claim in this post Cinelin about why Felicity Smoak is the largest of all Mary Sue.
"The goal of a Mary Sue is not in the making, but in how others react to her / him a Mary Sue exists to be praised; an object that idolize her. / He inspires others with her infectious goodness and makes the hero fight harder, even if Mary Sue actually never does anything remarkable. "
As you can see, the term is used in a derogatory manner and to criticize the series in particular. If, for example, you start to accuse Daisy / Skye to be a Mary Sue, it's because you're emphasizing defect ' Agents of SHIELD ', a character in which the writers are too reflected and pamper to the point of making it unlikely.
How is the Mary Sue has evolved considerably since the 70, and their perception is one of the more subjective all the usual tropes of fiction. Was Karen in 'Smash' a Mary Sue? Can you apply that term to players as Supergirl? And they can fall into that trap the strong female characters Buffy or Sydney Bristow type, and are almost becoming their own archetypes?
Mary Sue (or Marty / Gary Stu) can be a symptom of personal weakness of the writers, of a lazy characterization of a character or it may be simply conditioned by the preconceptions of viewers to certain characters. Their identification is not as clear or follow a predetermined pattern. Mary Sues can be some interesting characters, and even "redemption".

Grass shrimp, or Palaemonetes, are a genus of freshwater and brackish water shrimp commonly found living among plants such as hydrilla and eelgrass. They make excellent live bait, especially for larger game fish. You can learn how to catch fresh water grass shrimp in a few steps.
Items you will need
Fine mesh net
Fish-flavored cat food
Wet eelgrass or other aquatic plants
Know where to look. Grass shrimp are sensitive to heat and changes in temperature and tend to congregate in shady areas. You can find them near aquatic plants and near submerged or sunken objects like docks, fences or pipes. Hunting at night by shining a flashlight into the water can be particularly effective.
Scatter shrimp from hiding places in plants by shaking the plants or combing through them with your hands, a wire rake or a fine, mesh net. Use the same net to scoop up any shrimp that you find. You can also use a sport or commercial shrimp trap baited with fish-flavored cat food.
Take a proper receptacle to store them in. Two good options are a cooler half-filled with ice cubes and lined with newspaper or a wood box lined with eelgrass or other aquatic plants collected from the area. Grass shrimp do not need to be submerged in water to survive, only kept cool and wet.

Model ID: 119
Striking a drum excites a spectrum of vibration modes that together make up the instrument's characteristic sound or acoustic signal. These vibration modes correspond to the eigenmodes, or eigenfunctions, of the drum's membrane. Thus you can study this problem by solving eigenvalue problems for stretched membranes.
Two different geometric shapes are modeled, with all other parameters being equal. If you can find two differently shaped membranes that have identical eigenvalues—in other words, they are isospectral—then it's not possible to "hear" the shape of a specific drum.

High-Powered Blending FAQ
Here are some of the top Frequently Asked Questions about High Powered Blending. If you have a question not listed here, please contact us.
- What is the difference between a high-powered blender and a regular blender?
Technically a high-power blender has more power and speed to rotate its blade compared to other blender appliances. Most household blenders are typically 500 to 750 watts, anything greater could be referred to as high powered. However, most blenders that are marketed as high-powered blenders, have power specifications more than 1000 watts, and higher values are marketed as better with more capabilities than an ordinary blender.
Examples of premium high-powered / high-speed blender models
- Blendtec Blenders: Motor: 1560 to 1800 watts
- Vitamix Ascent Series: Motor: 1440 watts
- Ninja Professional, Motor: 1100-Watts.
- How does a high-powered blending benefit me?
The higher power and RPMs make blending Easier, Faster, and can blend more types of challenging blend ingredients than an average powered kitchen blender or immersion blender. The higher power and speed enable doing blend tasks that are simply too difficult or impossible for lower powered blending equipment. For example, one of the most challenging ingredients for a blender to do is ice, frozen fruit & vegetables. These ingredients are common to making the most popular blended food: SMOOTHIES! Bottom line, if you want to make smoothies and or other challenging ingredient blends and it is important to have it done well (smooth), with ease and efficiency, then you will appreciate the difference and experience you'd get with high powered blending.
- Why is high powered blending easier?
It is easier, because there is less need for food prep time and strategizing how to make it lower power / lower speed blender friendly. Consider for example a lowered powered blender with a task to blend the challenging ingredients in a collard green smoothie with some frozen mango, banana and berries. To attempt this, you may need to cut ingredients like the frozen mango cubes into smaller pieces, cut the frozen banana small slices and dice your collard greens, to help it blend and /or modify the recipe by adding more liquid as well. All this prepping adds up to less ease and more work to get the blend done.
- Why is high powered blending faster?
It is faster, for two reasons.
- Reason One: Less time required to prepare foods for blending. I know we just covered this with ease, but it applies to the fastness as well. With a high-powered blender, ingredients can be put in larger and often whole (skin, seeds and all if you like) with much less food prep time.
- Reason Two: The high-powered motor can rotate its blade in tougher blends, and at a faster rotation, also referred to as: Rotations Per Minute (RPM). This means it gets the blending work done faster.
- What does a high-powered blender do that your average blender cannot?
Typically, a high-powered blender is a premium product and will be designed with better quality materials, technology, features, functions as well as blade and blending jar that are superior to the lesser powered / lower speed types. These other components of the blender play a part in overall performance. However just from the perspective of the higher power and higher speed technical specification, it can blend more challenging ingredients and recipes.
Consider the following examples.
- Blend Hot Soups without a stove – High power + high speed = hot smooth blends like soups, sauces and gravies made right in the blender jar. No need to transfer to a stove top. Although preprogrammed buttons are not needed, some high powered / high speed blending models offer extra functionality such as preprogrammed cycles, which may include a soup blend cycle so that you can blend your hot soups while attending to other things in your kitchen. So, if your yearning to enjoy some fresh hot blender soup recipes, or other hot blends that you can make completely in your blender, a high-powered blending appliance may be a better choice for you.
- Blend Cold Frozen Treats in Seconds – With a high-powered blender you can make ice cream, fruit sorbet and other frozen recipes. Frozen ingredients are one of the most challenging ingredients that requires power to blend and speed to get it done fast. This means it gives you the option of a soft serve ice cream straight from your blender and you are not limited to the type that is made with less challenging ingredients, that is a liquid blend which must be transferred to your freezer for a few hours or so to set.
- Takes the role of other kitchen appliances by doing things like: Grind Coffee, Seeds and Spices, aswell as mill grains into flours, powders and more.
- Blends the extra thick and challenging smooth - There are tasks that require more power and speed to get the blend recipe done. If you want a blend done super fast and smooth and it has challenging ingredients, then high powered blending may be the only option, or at least if it is to be done well. Think extra thick blends like nut butters, humus, batters and dough or even just that smoothie bowl recipe loaded thick with tasty healthy goodness. Bottom line, if you want to be blending anything challenging, done better, smoother and faster, a high speed / high powered blender is the appliance of choice.
- Can I get a high-powered blender with glass jar?
No. Premium manufacturers of high speed / high power blender manufacturers like Blendtec and Vitamix, choose not to offer glass jar containers. And show no intention to offer it in the future. Instead both use a strong, light, poly material called Eastman Tritan copolyester – a clear, durable plastic. The safety of the blender jar material has been reviewed independently and approved safe by regulatory agencies such as: Health Canada, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, European Food Safety Authority, China's Ministry of Health and Japan's Hygienic Olefin and Styrene Plastics Association.
- What is the best high-powered blender for 2018?
The answer is it depends. Simply put, the best blender for you may not be the same as your friends or family. Why? This is because among the top premium quality brands and latest models there are differences in design, features, function, colour finish (to suit your kitchen and or personal style) and price that will make one more suitable for your needs and preferences.
- To quickly see top differences in design and realize what your preferences are, check out this Blender Buyers Guide.
- Also, if you seek only the best in the blender industry leaders are the Blendtec and Vitamix blenders.

Kentucky Countryside in Transition
A Streetcar Suburb and the Origins of Middle-Class Louisville, 1850–1910
Kentucky Countryside in Transition charts the rise of the American middle class at the turn of the twentieth century by examining the migration from the Kentucky countryside to the city and subsequently the suburbs of Louisville. The formation of the middle class in Louisville was fostered by two factors: a boom in white collar employment and the electric streetcar, an innovation that fundamentally changed the urban landscape. Ultimately a narrative of industrialization and modernity, this study focuses on a group of forty-two families who lived at the end of the Broadway Trolley line in an area that came to be known as the Cherokee Triangle. This suburban neighborhood was dominated by white collar commuters who were driven to Louisville by a desire to get ahead but continued to embrace a nostalgia for country life. In this meticulous three generation study, Stephanie Bower follows this group of families as they make the transition from rural farmers and cultivators to city laborers and white collar workers. By mining census records, city directories, and county records, Bower carefully reconstructs the biographical details of residents in an effort to paint a picture of life in this streetcar suburb during this important period of transformation. Regional studies of the middle class during this pivotal era are often overlooked in contemporary scholarship. Consequently, this analysis will be of interest to those researching Louisville, middle class formation, and suburbanization, as well as to local genealogists tracing their family histories.

Coca-Cola has launched a new limited-edition Coca-Cola 3000 Zero Sugar within the Coca-Cola Creations platform, with the help of artificial intelligence (AI). The AI, in cooperation with humans, helped create both the taste and the design of the can, as Coca-Cola tries to identify what the year 3000 would look like for beverages. It is not just Coca-Cola using AI in the soft drinks category. Unilever, owner of PepsiCo, has developed AI tools to optimise various aspects of its business operations. Against this backdrop, the usage of AI in the soft drinks industry is set to grow for the discovery of new flavours and to enhance the efficiency of business operations, says GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company.
Coca-Cola started with a core question to its customers: What would the year 3000 look like? Consumers were asked how they saw Coca-Cola in the year 3000 via the Coca-Cola Creations platforms. The company then used AI to analyse all the responses to create the framework for the futuristic product based on how people see the future through emotions, ambitions, colours and flavours.
Dragos Dumitrachi, Analyst at GlobalData, comments: "Based on these inputs from consumers and its knowledge of beverage trends, the AI created a unique packaging and flavour profile for a carbonate in the year 3000. The packaging format is colourful, with a mix of spherical shapes blended in purple, pink, and blue colours with a pixelated logo, and the AI primarily perceived the future as being sugar-free. This is to be expected as low-calorie carbonates recorded a 39 % growth between 2015 and 2023 globally, with this growth set to continue over the next five years, as consumers increasingly focus on their health and wellness. According to the latest global survey* by Global Data, 81 % of respondents consider that it is nice to have or essential for a product to be good for physical fitness/health."
Global Data expects the AI market to grow from USD 81 billion in 2022 to USD 90 billion by 2030, with a 35 % compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during 2022-2030. Recent progress in machine learning (ML) on the back of improved algorithms (e.g., Google's AlphaGo, OpenAI's GPT-3/ChatGPT, Tesla's AutoPilot) and increasing computing power have enabled AI to become more widely used in the soft drinks industry.
The AI-driven applications developed by Unilever leverage neural networks and the GPT API is aimed at enhancing the company's ability to respond to the evolving needs of its consumer base and broader market dynamics. On top of that, Unilever is using AI to identify alternative ingredients that can reinforce the resilience of their supply chains, making their products more sustainable and cost-efficient, and streamlining the number of ingredients without impacting the effectiveness or quality of the products.
Dragos concludes: "The AI market in the soft drinks industry is still in its infancy; the rules and laws that will govern it are still under debate. Global Data is forecasting that the use of AI for supply chain, administrative issues, and the discovery of new flavours and packaging formats in the soft drinks industry will only grow."

Recipe: Sweet potato flour paste
Home Cooking Recipe: Sweet potato flour paste
From snacks to big stuff, it's delicious and convenient. You can also go in whatever fruit you like to eat, and the dried fruit is also. I like to put brown sugar and brown sugar, like white sugar.
 1. Add the sweet potato powder to the water for a while and mix well. The static setting is for the large particles in the powder to melt completely. Like a thin paste, you can increase the proportion of water, and vice versa, thicker, less water. This step is the key.
 2. The cashew nuts are cooked or fried, and cooked. Then mash or small pieces. Pear diced.
 3. Open the medium and small fire, mix the sweet potato powder into the pot. Stir while observing, in the pot, it is necessary to stir all the time, in one direction. Until it is transparent, it means cooked, then add cashew nuts, dried bayberry, black sesame seeds, raisins, pears. Turn to a small fire, stir evenly, put sugar, turn off the heat.
Sugar can also be added together when adding water. When it needs to be hot, it is not so delicious when it is cold. It seems that it is not good for the second time, so it is not possible to stay overnight. Now eat now.

CORVALLIS, Ore. – Charles Wilkinson, historian and author of "The People are Dancing Again: The History of the Siletz Tribe of Western Oregon," will speak at Oregon State University on March 31, from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Memorial Union lounge.
In "The People are Dancing Again," Wilkinson tells the history of The Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians – 27 tribes speaking at least 10 languages – who were brought together on the Oregon coast through treaties with the federal government in _PHONE_. For decades after, the Siletz people lost many traditional practices, saw their languages almost wiped out, and experienced poverty, ill health and a loss of cultural identity.
By 1956, the tribe had been "terminated" under the Western Oregon Indian Termination Act, their land was sold off and they lost federal health and education benefits. After years of refusal to give in, in 1977 they became the second tribe in the nation to have its federal status, treaty rights and sovereignty restored.
"The book has been an unusually comprehensive and intense collaboration between author and tribe, with over 100 interviews," Wilkinson said. "The book is rich with the tribal voice."
Wilkinson is Moses Lasky Professor of Law at the University of Colorado Law School, and a respected expert in tribal law and history. He is the author of many books, including "Messages from Frank's Landing: A Story of Salmon," "Treaties, and the Indian Way," and "Blood Struggle: The Rise of Modern Indian Nation."
Songs honoring Wilkinson and the Siletz tribe will be performed by a local Native American drum group.

Transcendental Modernism
Drawn primarily from deCordova's permanent collection, Transcendental Modernism connects to the nearby exhibition Visionary New England, while focusing on artistic developments in Massachusetts from the 1940s through the 1990s. Veering away from dominant narratives of modern art as abstract, secular, and self-referential, Transcendental Modernism advances an understanding of vanguard art in Massachusetts based on intersectional social progress and interdisciplinary artistic pursuits. The exhibition examines the spiritual commitments of Boston Expressionists, the presence of Afrofuturism in Boston, and utopian collaborations between artists and scientists.
The exhibition was organized by Sam Adams, Curatorial Fellow.


Boating Under the Influence In South Carolina
The BUI Laws in South Carolina
Boating while impaired by alcohol or drugs is illegal in South Carolina just as it is illegal to drive a car while drunk. Section 50-21-112 of the South Carolina statutes specifies "operation of moving motorized water device or water device under sail while under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol to the extent that the person's faculties are materially and appreciably impaired." The statute also clarifies that a "drug" may be legal or illegal, or may be a combination of alcohol and a legal or illegal drug.
What are the Open Container Laws in South Carolina?
Be safe and avoid boating under the influence on South Carolina lakes and rivers
While the law is clear in regard to operating a boat while impaired, that still leaves questions related to the use of alcohol and the presence of open containers on boats. Specifically:
 - Can you have open alcohol containers on a boat in South Carolina?
 - Can you drink while boating on a South Carolina lake?
We've previously addressed this topic in a blog post and noted:
"South Carolina law doesn't expressly prohibit open containers of alcohol on boats within the state. Presumably, this means that the occupants of a boat can enjoy a beer as they enjoy cruising on a lake or river.
[However], just because a person might be able to have an open container of alcohol on a boat doesn't mean that drunk driving laws don't apply. Much like the laws that apply to drivers on land, boat operators face a legal blood-alcohol content limit of 0.08 percent.
Always be responsible and stay safe while having fun on the water."
Penalties & Consequences of Boating Under the Influence in South Carolina
Penalties for boating under the influence in South Carolina
If you have been charged with boating under the influence (BUI) of drugs or alcohol in South Carolina and are convicted, you face:
 - First offense: A fine of $200 or imprisonment for 48 hours or more. Public service can take the place of imprisonment.
 - Second offense: Penalties rise to $2,000 to $5,000 and imprisonment between 48 hours and one year. Ten days or more of public service may take the place of imprisonment.
 - Third offense: These subsequent convictions may result in fines of $3,500 or more and imprisonment lasting 60 days to three years.
A conviction on drunk boating charges can also have the same types of devastating long-term effects as a drunk driving conviction. These include:
 - Driver's license suspension
 - Difficulty obtaining employment or housing
 - Potential professional discipline or loss of professional licenses
 - Stigma and shame
 - Long-lasting negative consequences to career and other areas of life
If you've been arrested on suspicion of BUI, know this: you have options, and we can help. At Drennan Law Firm, we are prepared to take up the fight on your behalf. We have experience handling all types of difficult DUI/BUI cases in the Charleston area, and have helped clients throughout the region keep BUI charges from ruining their lives.
Know How Alcohol Affects Your Boating Abilities
A man who knows not to drink and boat
When you are out on the water, you might want to have a few drinks with your friends. Before you do that, you should know that you can face criminal charges for boating under the influence. You should also know that just because you can usually have a specific number of drinks and are fine, that might not be the case on the water because alcohol can affect you differently when you are out on the lake in a boat.
The natural effects of being on a boat can induce fatigue, which is also known as boater's hypnosis. The vibration of the boat, motion of the waves and exposure to the sun can all have these effects. Alcohol will intensify these effects, so you likely won't be able to consume as much alcohol as you would on land before you start to become impaired.
Your reaction time is likely going to be slower after you have been drinking. As you know, it isn't possible to stop your boat on a dime in the water. You need to have as much time and mental capacity as possible if you have to make an evasive maneuver while driving the boat.
Alcohol can also affect your balance, which could mean that you are at an increased risk of falling overboard. It can also affect your judgement, which could cause you to take risks you would normally avoid.
All of these are very good reasons to save the alcohol for a time after you dock your boat and won't have to drive anywhere. If you end up facing drunk boating charges, be sure to explore all of the options you have for a defense.
3 Reasons to Avoid Boating Drunk
Avoid boating under the influence in Charleston Harbor
Just about everyone loves to head out on the water in the summer months. The breeze is fantastic, and it's a great time to spend an afternoon with your family and friends. Perhaps you like to go out on your own and go fishing or prefer to take a tour in the evening to go dolphin watching. Whatever it is you like to do when boating, this is the season to enjoy it.
One problem with boating is that some people believe it's safe to drink alcohol and drive a boat. That could not be further from the truth. The reality is that much like any other vehicle, a boat has the potential to crash and malfunction. A driver who is impaired won't be able to respond to an emergency in the way he or she should, and could cause a serious crash on the water. Here are three other reasons to avoid getting drunk while at sea or on a lake.
1. You'll Get Dehydrated Quickly
If you're not drinking water and are spending time in the sun, it's more likely for you to become dehydrated. Combined with the risk of intoxication, you're more likely to suffer symptoms like headaches or disorientation, which could put you in danger.
2. You Could Cause a Crash
This is a serious reason never to drink behind the wheel of a boat. When you're boating, you're not alone on the water. Even though the waterways are more freeing and have more space to travel, it's likely that you'll come across other boaters. Some will have larger vessels, and others will have small, personal vessels. The last thing you want to do is to hit someone or to have someone hit you. By avoiding alcohol, you'll be in a better position to avoid causing or becoming part of a crash.
3. You Could Lose Your License (and Suffer Penalties)
Finally, remember that a boat is still a vehicle, so you can get a BUI if you drive drunk. Boating under the influence is a crime similar to driving under the influence. Boating while intoxicated increases the risk of fatalities by up to 34 percent, according to the U.S. Coast Guard, so you can be penalized for doing so with fines or the loss of your boating license. You could even go to prison if a crash results in a person's death.
Avoiding alcohol when you're boating is a good idea. By playing it safe, you'll enjoy time on the water without the fear of repercussions.
Boating Under the Influence Defense Strategies
The boating under the influence defense strategy you choose can have a big impact on your case. Our lawyers can help you to look into the options that you have so that you know what you might do.
Decide on the Purpose
Our South Carolina boating under the influence lawyers need to determine the purpose of your defense. This can be challenging but it is a crucial part of your plan. If you know for a fact that you weren't drunk while you were boating, you might work to prove that you were innocent. If you know that you were drunk, your focus might be to minimize the penalties. In either case, you should make sure that you aren't delaying your defense by putting off getting started.
Look into the Circumstances
A look into the circumstances surrounding your arrest can let you know how you are going to proceed. You need to try to find points in the prosecution's defense that you can question. Each question you raise might put you one step closer to the goal of your case. Remember that you have to be convicted beyond a reasonable doubt, so raise all the doubt you can.
We know that you might need to get some questions answered. We can answer your questions, help you to learn what options you have for your defense, and develop a strategy for your drunk boating defense case.

Everything you need to understand or teach Yellow Woman by Leslie Marmon Silko.
The poem that prefaces "Yellow Woman" suggests that the story that follows is mythic. Whirlwind Man belongs "to the wind," and he and Kochininako, Yellow Woman, "travel swiftly / this whole world." At the story's opening, the unnamed female narrator awakens at dawn next to a man on a riverbank. She watches the sun rise, then gets up and walks south, following their footprints from the day before. She comes across their horses, and she looks for but cannot see her pueblo (a multi-storied dwelling built of adobe; capitalized, the word also means "people" in the sense of a tribal group).
She returns to the sleeping man to tell him she is leaving. He reminds her, smiling, that she must come with him. He calls her "Yellow Woman" and will not answer her questions about who he is, saying only that the night before she had guessed who he... View more of the Yellow Woman Summary

What is The Difference Between Server Side Rendering (SSR) and React Server Components?
Nick Scialli • December 22, 2020 • 🚀 3 minute read
In December 2020, the React team introduced an experimental feature called React Server Components. This may leave you wondering how exactly these "server components" differ from Server Side Rendering (SSR).
SSR Is All About the Initial Page Load
TL;DR: SSR is basically all about that initial load seeming more like a traditional server-rendered app.
React Server Components Are Always Rendered on the Server
React Server Components are always rendered on the server. These are likely components that are fetching some data from your backend, so it makes sense to have the rendering of these components colocated with the data that's being fetched. Whenever these components need to be rerendered, they are refetched from the server and merged into the existing, client-side React component tree. What's cool about this is client state is preserved even though we're refetching parts of the view from the server.
React Server Components Are More Likely to Reduce Bundle Size
Since SSR apps are about the initial page load, the client is likely to end up downloading all your dependencies as they explore your application (after all, it's a client side app after that first page load). However, if you have dependencies for a React Server Component, those dependencies will always be only on the server since those React Server Components are not shipped to the front-end until they have been rendered.
While React Server Components and SSR both involve some React rendering on the server, they're actually quite different! RSCs are a very interesting development and I certainly look forward to learning more about them.

Commonly available airless spray equipment systems can be powered by a variety of means and are offered in a wide range of sizes and performance capabilities.
- Hand held cordless electric airless spray guns battery powered.
- Hand held electric airless spray guns mains powered.
- Hydraulic diaphragm mains electric or petrol powered airless spray pump equipment.
- Mains electric powered reciprocating piston airless spray pump equipment.
- Petrol engine powered reciprocating piston airless spray equipment with electric clutches.
- Hydraulic powered airless piston pumps using either electric motors or petrol powered motors to provide hydraulic power.
- Pneumatic compressed air driven reciprocating airless piston pump equipment.
Airless spray systems in any of the above categories atomise fluid or liquid including paints and coatings by forcing the fluid through a small nozzle or orifice at high pressure. As the liquid passes through the small nozzle or airless spray tip at high pressure the liquid is atomised into a fine spray. The effect is similar to restricting the flow of water from a standard garden hose by placing your finger over the end of the hose and restricting the flow of water until the water becomes a spray of water.
Never place fingers or any other body part near any outlet on an airless spray unit as the extremely high pressure can cause serious injury.

- Diaphragm Airless
- Electric Airless
- Hand Held Airless Sprayer
- Hydraulic Airless

Norway is a beautiful country with a long and interesting history. But in addition to its interesting history and reputation for being friendly, active, and spectacularly beautiful, Norway has some distinctively odd characteristics and traditions. Here are five intriguing, strange facts about Norway.
1. It is illegal to die in Longyearbyen
Longyearbyen; the largest city on Spitsbergen, the largest island on Norway's Svalbard archipelago; has banned death. If someone falls terminally ill on the islands, he or she will be sent elsewhere to die. This may sound heartless, but it's for good reason – the Svalbard archipelago is far north in the Arctic Circle, and experiences frost all year round. As a result, bodies buried there won't decompose. This means that residents can't bury anyone here. If someone dies on Longyearbyen without warning, their final resting place will be elsewhere.
2. The Norwegian King's Guard features a king penguin
Sir Nils Olav has been the Norwegian King's Guard's mascot since the 1960s. When Lieutenant Nils Egelien visited the Edinburgh Zoo in Scotland he found himself drawn to the penguins there. Shortly afterward, he arranged for the King's Guard to adopt a king penguin. Nils Olav I started as a lance corporal and earned a promotion each time the King's Guard visited Scotland. After Nils Olav I died in the late '80s, another penguin took his place, name, and rank. In 2008, Nils Olav II was knighted. The current holder is Nils Olav III.
3. A Norwegian invented the cheese slicer
Thor Bjorklund invented the cheese slicer in the 1920s after getting frustrated with attempting to make neat slices of cheese with a regular knife. Bjorklund was a carpenter, and he drew inspiration for his cheese-slicer design from his woodworking tools. When his standard knife didn't work, he tried out different tools in his workshop. When his wood planer worked well, he drafted the tool many use today. His cheese slicer was easy to use and worked for many different kinds of cheeses, and as a result, little of the original design has changed. If you've ever used this nifty device, thank Norway!
4. Ikea beds, wardrobes, and hall furniture are named after places in Norway
Yes, Ikea is a Swedish company, but it still has a fondness for its Scandinavian cousins. The company's founder, Ingvar Kamprad, is dyslexic. When he was coming up with names for his company's furniture, he found that naming them after existing words and places made them easier for him to identify and, as a result, Ikea beds, wardrobes, and hall furniture are all named after places in Norway. But Norway isn't the only country Kamprad used for inspiration: Ikea sofas, coffee tables, media storage cabinets, and bookshelves are named after places in Sweden; dining tables and chairs are named after places in Finland; and its carpets are named after places in Denmark. Other Ikea products are named after everything from berries to birds.
5. Norway rocks the Winter Olympics
In many ways, Norway's victories at the Winter Olympics are hardly a surprise. After all, the country receives a huge amount of snowfall and has a long winter season. Norwegians also have a unique bond with nature, known as 'friluftsliv'. However, the degree to which Norwegians dominate cold-weather sports is still astonishing. Norway is the unquestionable champion of the Winter Olympics, having won over 329 gold, silver, and bronze medals over the history of the Olympics. Furthermore, Norway has won the most number of gold medals over the history of the Olympics, with 118 gold medals. The US comes in second, with a total of 96 gold medals. Suffice to say, Norwegians rock the Winter Olympic events.
