One of the configuration variables we can find in the solrconfig.xml file is maxBooleanClauses, which specifies the maximum number of boolean clauses that can be combined in a single query. The question is, do I have to worry about it when using filters in Solr? Let's try to answer that question without getting into Lucene and Solr source code.
Let's assume that we have the following query we want to change:
q=category:1 AND category:2 AND category:3... AND category:2000
Sending such a query to the Solr instance with the default configuration would result in the following exception: "too many boolean clauses". Of course we could modify the maxBooleanClauses variable in solrconfig.xml file and get rid of the exception, but let's try do it the other way:
Let's change the query to use filters
So, we change the above query to use filters – the fq parameter:
q=*:*&fq=category:(1 2 3... 2000)
We send the query to Solr and … and again the same situation happens – exception with the "too many boolean clauses" message. It happens because Solr has to "calculate" filter content and thus run the appropriate query. So, let's modify the query once again:
Final query change
After the final modification our query should look like this:
After sending such a query we will get the search results (of course if there are documents matching the query in the index). This time Solr didn't have to run a single, large boolean query and that's why we didn't exceed the maxBooleanClauses limit.
To sum up
As you can see the answer to the question asked in the begining of the post depend on the query we want to run. If our query is using AND boolean operator we can use fq parameter because multiple fq parameters are concatenated using AND. However if we have to use OR we would have to change the limit defined by maxBooleanClauses configuration variable. But please remember that changing this limit can have a negative effect on performance and memory usage.

William Heise was an American film director, active in the 1890s. He 'directed' The Kiss, a 1896 short film that depicted a kiss between May Irwin and John Rice.
Direction, at this early stage in cinema, consisted mainly of pointing a stationary camera in one direction and capturing whatever action transpired within the frame. Along with W. K. L. Dickson, Heise was one of the most prolific filmmakers of the nascent days of cinema. He worked with Dickson on many of the early shorts, capturing numerous scenes of everyday life as well as different aspects of performance and sport. —wikipedia

Storing Digits For Large Number Calc
I'm planning a module for arithmetic on large numbers and I need to store an arbitrary amount of numerical digits (0-9) in the quickest variable type possible and without wasting horrendous amounts of memory.
Longs and Integers, while the fastest of variable types, simply cannot store that amount of data.
Strings are virtually free of length boundaries, but they're 38 times slower than bytes and given that they're Unicode, they would require 2 bytes per digit. Also, string operations are notoriously slow.
I was thinking byte arrays would work well, although they are still much too large (256 possible values as compared only needing 10). This would waste half the byte. 4 bits would work well (16 possible values), but the problem would be storing and retrieving two numerical digits for individual operations. I could mathematically determine two separate digits from a value 00-99. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the first and second character of a byte in Hex would return the values of the first and second group of 4 bits independently.
I'm just tossing some ideas around. Thanks for any feedback!
Taking A Number In A Textbox, And Finding The Mean Of The Digits.

I'm going to have a text box, label, and command button.
Basically how do I seperate digits in a number that is a string.
Choosing Number Of Digits After Decimal To Display

I want that I can choose how many number of digits after decimal to display, but the thousand and decimal separator symbol remain to follow the regional setting.
Is it possible?

Solved: Increment About Form Version Number
Can someone explain how to increment the About form version number? It just stays at 1.1.0. Other than not incrementing the form looks just fine. The code in the About form includes...
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.Caption = "About " & App.Title
lblVersion.Caption = "Version " & App.Major & "." & App.Minor & _
"." & App.Revision
lblTitle.Caption = App.Title
lblDescription.Caption = "This program was written by...blah blah"
lblDisclaimer.Caption = "Warning:...This program is protected....blah"
..but there is also under - project properties - make, the version number Major, Minor, Revision.
I have them each set to 1. And, the Auto increment is checked. But, I'm not sure about under Application the Title and Icon part. The drop down for the Icon just lists all the different forms I have in this project. I don't think of a form as an icon what am I missing here?
Under Version Information Type there are entries like comments, company name, file description and so on. What are these for?
Forgive my ignorance I realize this ain't rocket science. Maybe it's the triptophan kicking in.

(RESOLVED)(VB6)Auto Increment Number In Access
I use Access2002 and VB6. My project is a school project. I have 2 comboboxes and one textbox. In my Access database I've already entered data. In combo1 I show the classes like LKG,UKG,STD I,STD II,STD III etc. In combo2, I show the names of students found in that particular class which is selected in Combo1.Let's assume that the maximum strength in each class is 100. Now I want to allot Roll no to students of different classes in a particular way. For example: Students of LKG should have Roll no starting from 101. Students of UKG should have Roll no from 201. Students of STD I should have Roll no from 301 like this. In the textbox if I write the first roll no of a class, can I allot roll no to all students of that class in auto increment way? Hope, you got me.Right? I mean, if I choose UKG and in the textbox I write 501 then roll no should be added in database against all students of that class like 501,502,503,504 and each name. The roll no should be incremented till the no of students are found in the class. Is it possible throught VB6 coding? Thanks.

Weeding is a common theme in library literature. But, while librarians often use circulation statistics or other data as general guidelines for weeding print collections, few consider the value of actively engaging affected populations during the weeding lifecycle, particularly in the early stages of selecting material for retention. This paper describes a collaborative project between librarians and non-library faculty and staff to identify and retain the materials that would establish a core library collection, increase collection and resource accessibility, and aid in a library's transformation into a more student-centered space. The paper concludes with an overview of outcomes and describes how the weeding project contributed to the library's ablity to function within a more contemporary framework of service while also shifting expectations of the library's role within the greater university.

The failure is probably in the call Convert.ToDouble. Your code probably executes in a CultureInfo that has ',' as decimal separator, but your values use '.'. I would advice you to use Double.TryParse using a CultureInfo that has '.' as decimal separator instead:
Double value;
if (Double.TryParse(time, NumberStyles.Any, CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-US"), out value))
 s = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(value);
share|improve this answer
You need to specify an IFormatProvider when you use Convert.ToDouble(time):
Convert.ToDouble(time, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
Specifying CulturInfo.InvariantCulture specifies a culture that expect floating points written as 1.234 (note the period). The source of your problem may be that you time is in the format 1,234 (note the comma). Or maybe it is the reverse: You don't specify an IFormatProvider and the current culture of you ASP.NET process uses comma as a decimal separator, but the string provided uses period?
If the decimal point used isn't consistent you should either fix it at the source (not sure what the source is here) or as a last resort you can replace comma by period:
Convert.ToDouble(time.Replace(",", "."), CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
However, trying to parse a string and not knowing the what to expect is not the best thing to do.

Use the Files property of either the SPWeb or SPFolder class to return the collection of files for the site or folder. To create a new file, use one of the Add methods of SPFileCollection.
Use an indexer to return a single file from the collection. For example, assuming the collection is assigned to a variable named collFiles, use collFiles[index] in C#, or collFiles(index) in Visual Basic, where index is either the index number of the file in the collection or the display name of the file.
The following code example checks every file in the top-level folder of a specified document library for the last time that it was modified and, if the time is less than a certain value, copies the file to another document library.
Dim SiteCollection As New SPSite("http://MySiteCollection")
 Dim srcFolder As SPFolder = siteCollection.AllWebs("SourceWebSite").GetFolder("SourceDocLib")
 Dim destFiles As SPFileCollection = siteCollection.AllWebs("DestWebSite").GetFolder("DestDocLib").Files

This question is a derivative of a previous question: Source control - How to version resources that are shared across projects
I have a project that contains code that is consumed by many other projects. Specifically, one folder in this parent project has been branched to dependent child projects.
We have since made changes in the parent project and checked them in. In Source Control Explorer, I right click on the branched folder in the parent project and select "Merge", intending to push the changes to a dependent project. I select the child project as a destination and then select "Latest Version". The wizard informs me "There are no changes to merge."
From my perspective, this isn't true, since the recently updated files are clearly different.
Is there a fundamental misunderstanding of the merge process in TFS here? What do I need to do differently?
share|improve this question

The TFS merge engine relies almost entirely on history, not file contents. This makes it efficient for very large trees, and flexible for tasks like safely cherry-picking changes -- but it also makes answering your question difficult.
The first step is to understand the diagnostic commands tf history, tf merges, and tf merge /candidate. Here is a good introduction:
If you are new to branching & merging in TFS then your history is probably not very complex. I think it's likely you'll find your answer with one quick call to tf merges. However, tracing merge history can become extremely convoluted in the general case, so if you have trouble feel free to post back with more details.
share|improve this answer
Go to one specific file you know has changed in your "parent" project. Try merging just that file. Don't check anything in; just see what happens.
Something to watch for: The merge tools will not include files that have been added after you branch. You have to branch new files explicitly before you can merge any further changes. If a file is added to both parent and child folders without using a branch operation, the merge tools don't treat them as versions of the same file (and you can't merge changes between them).
share|improve this answer
Corrections: * Newly added files do not have a merge relationship with other branches until they're themselves branched = TRUE. (note: can be a "branch, delete") * The workaround is to merge the specific file = FALSE. Won't work. Correct answer is to merge a parent that does have a relationship. * Files added to both branches in parallel will not merge = FIXED IN 2008. See #1-2 from… - but note that if the contents don't match, you're stuck with a version conflict that has no "base" info; merging will be a pain. – Richard Berg Jun 11 '09 at 23:22

This is an overview of domain separation and the Notifications application. Domain
separation enables you to separate data, processes, and administrative tasks into logical
groupings called domains. You can then control several aspects of this separation, including
which users can see and access data.
Support: Level 2
Domain separation is
supported in this application. Not all ServiceNow applications support domain
separation; some include limitations on the data and administrative settings that can be
domain separated. To learn more, see Application support for domain
Domain separation is specifically supported in Notifications but not in email accounts.
Notifications are not data-separated but they are process-separated. Notifications are also
triggered by specific actions.
How domain separation works in Notifications
There are two basic components of domain separation and Notifications.
- Notifications are process-separated (not data-separated).
- Notifications are triggered in two main ways:
- When a record is Inserted or Updated
- Notifications with matching conditions AND in the same domain as the
inserted/updated record are processed.
- When an event defined in the notification is triggered
- Events typically have a target record. For example, [incident.inserted] event
references the incident record being inserted.
- When an event is fired, notifications configured for that event in the same
domain as the event's target record are processed.
Domains and email accounts
Domain separation is not supported in email accounts for these reasons:
- Sending mail: There is only one SMTP sender per account. This prohibits providing
domains for each account, and they are not configurable.
- For receiving Inbound mail: You can set up multiple email accounts but cannot
meaningfully set the domain of an inbound email action. Inbound Actions are processed in
the domain of the user who sent the email. For example: User_A in Domain A sends an
email to a ServiceNow email account which executes the "Create an incident" inbound
email action. The resulting new incident created by the inbound action is in Domain
To learn more see Inbound email actions
Note: If the number of email accounts exceeds 20, reception of email slows down.
If an instance is using the
Domain separation plugin
and a new email notification is
defined for a domain that has the same event as the notification on the global domain,
the user receives two emails for the same event.
Solution: Set the [sys_overrides] field on the notification that belongs to the
domain so it overrides the setting on global. For more information, see

加圧方式の床吹出し空調システムに関する研究 第1報, 均一な吹出し気流速度分布を得るための因子解析 Studies on a Pressurized Type Underfloor Air-Conditioning System (1th Report : Analysis of Controlled Factors for Uniform Air Velocity Profile)
Recently, a lower type free-access floor system which realizes improved ease of walking and less sense of confinement has been attracting attention. However, it is known that the lower the design of the air supply chamber, the larger the non-uniformity of the supplied air velocity at each diffuser and the greater the deterioration in room temperature distribution. In this report, an analytical model is proposed for predicting the non-uniformity of supplied air velocity at the design stage. The validity of the analytical model was confirmed by the good-coincidence of results obtained in scale model tests. It was found that the limit of the floor height at which a uniform supplied air velocity is obtained was 50 mm. Moreover, a relation was found whereby the inverse of coefficient of resistance at a diffuser up to a value of 1 is proportional to the maximum non-uniformity. This indicates the possibility that design work aimed at constructing a pressurized type under floor air-conditioning system with a uniform supplied air velocity profile may be readily performed from parameters of the coefficient of resistance at a diffuser by utilizing this relation.

Amid the tidy homes along the east side of Delaware Road at Willowbreeze Road in the Town of Tonawanda sits a most unusual site; the Faling Cemetery, one of the oldest burial grounds in Western New York. According to Town Historian John W. Percy, the Faling and Zimmerman families were among the first to settle along the old Indian trail that would become Delaware Avenue
When Richard Faling's daughter, Mary Ann, died at 6 weeks of age in 1816, his wife conducted the funeral and interred the baby on their property. Additional burials followed during the remaining years of the century. More than 180 years later, time has taken its toll on the small cemetery. Many of the names on the weather-beaten markers are indecipherable, spindly trees nearly outnumber the number of graves, and a black iron fence casts an ominous barrier around the cemetery.
Still, the gravestones of several war heroes, along with a number of distinguished pioneers, are identifiable at the cemetery. A Civil War soldier, Frederick Bleyle, who died in 1890, is buried here, as are four veterans of the War of 1812. Jeremiah and David Faling's graves are marked by large pillars. And a prominent black column marks the grave of former town supervisor Jacob Wire, who died in the 1850s.
Toward the end of the 19th century, Faling Cemetery was a popular burial ground for local residents, Percy said. But in 1901, the plot thickened. With the opening of Elmlawn Cemetery, many families moved their graves to that site and Faling fell into disrepair. Under state law, the Town of Tonawanda is charged with maintaining the cemetery, Percy said. In 1976, as part of the nation's bicentennial, the graveyard was rededicated by the Historical Society

How to Edit a Hierarchy
A Hierarchy is an object that represents either a platoon or a
company. It contains units and hierarchies which represent the
hierarchy's subordinate units. In the ATF Scenario Builder
hierarchies are generated either manually or during the process of adding
a Unit Package. From the
Hierarchy Tree window, you can edit the appearance or attributes of a
hierarchy, no matter how it is created.
NOTE: In Armored Task Force, enemy platoons are
represented on the map and in windows as companies, and companies as
battalions. Besides this, in every respect, they behave just as
Open the Hierarchy Tree Window:
While hierarchies are visible on the map, they can only be edited from
the Hierarchy Tree window. While, in Armored Task Force,
there is only a friendly Hierarchy Tree window, in ATF Scenario
Builder, there are three Hierarchy Tree windows: Friendly, Enemy, and
1. Select 'Friendly' from the 'Hierarchy Tree' sub-menu of the
Edit a Hierarchy:
On the map, hierarchies are depicted by flags or NATO piece
markers. When you add a Unit Package, it may or may not have the
correct flag and, even if it does have the correct flag, it will almost
certainly not be labeled correctly. To fix the problem, you will
have to edit the appearance of the hierarchy.
To begin editing a hierarchy, right-click on it in the Hierarchy Tree
window, and select 'Edit'.
1. To change the attributes or appearance of a hierarchy, make
changes in the Hierarchy Platoon or Company Data dialog.
- Name. The screen name of the hierarchy, which appears both
in the Hierarchy Tree window and in the 'tooltip' labels on the map.
- Max Units. The maximum number of directly subordinate units
or hierarchies under this hierarchy (both units and platoon
hierarchies, but not subordinate platoon's units).
- Spacing. The distance between units in the hierarchy while
in formation (in tens of meters).
- Command Radius. Not currently implemented.
- Command and Control, BOS Flags. These flags are combined
to determine what kinds of formations and Missions are available to
- NATO Piece. The NATO symbol that represents the hierarchy,
both in the Hierarchy Tree and on the map.
- Graphic Piece. The 'Flag' that represents the hierarchy on
the map when vehicles are visible.
- Graphic Label Piece. The number or letter that is displayed
on the flag.
- Destroyed NATO and Graphic Piece. Not implemented.
- Locked? If this box is checked, hierarchies and units can
not be added to or removed from the hierarchy.
2. To change the flag, click on the 'Graphic Piece' button and
select a piece of the type '..._flag'.
3. To change the letter or number on the flag, select 'Graphic
4.... And select a piece with a name of the form '..._label'.
5. When you click 'OK' to close the Hierarchy Platoon Data
dialog, the graphic representation of the hierarchy will be altered on
Task Organize Hierarchies:
Just as in Armored Task Force, platoons and units can be moved
from one hierarchy to another.
1. Click on the hierarchy and, while holding down the left-mouse
2.... drag the hierarchy to the new hierarchy and 'drop' it by
releasing the left mouse button.
Edit a Unit in the Hierarchy Tree:
Units are also represented in the Hierarchy Tree window. Their
attributes effect not only how they are depicted in the Hierarchy Tree,
but also how they are depicted on the map when NATO icons are
selected. These attributes also effect the unit's ability to lead
1. Right-click on a unit in the Hierarchy Tree and select 'Edit'.
2. Now you can alter the attributes of the unit.
- Name. The name of the unit. This will supersede any
name set for the unit on the map.
- Rank. If the unit also has 'Platoon Leader Capable' or
'Company Commander Capable' set, this number sets the order of
precedence in which this unit will assume command of the hierarchy
of which it is a part. For instance, a unit with a Rank of 1
will assume command before a unit with a Rank of 2. A zero or
negative Rank will override the leader settings and prevent this
unit from assuming command.
- Platoon Leader Capable, Company Commander Capable. If one of
these is checked, and the unit has a positive Rank, the unit will
assume command of the hierarachy of which it is a direct member,
unless a unit with a lower Rank is present. Obviously 'Platoon
Leaders' can only lead platoons and 'Company Commanders' can only
- NATO Piece. The NATO icon which represents the unit both on
the map and in the Hierarchy Tree. This setting will override
settings for the vehicle type of the unit.
- Graphic Piece, Destroyed NATO Piece, Destroyed Graphic
Piece. Not implemented.
- Locked? If checked, the unit can not be moved from its
current hierarchy to another hierarchy or out of all hierarchies.

Really nice free geometric font by Brian Jacob.
"Kotori Rose started as a rough sketch of the capital letter K, in a sketch book given as a gift by someone who believed in me. The exploration of the letterforms turned into an exploration away from self doubt and instead trusting my intuition. The process became more about believing in ones self."
The letter forms were inspired by the bold, simple, balanced nature of geometric fonts, and how these forms symbolically could emit determination and courage.

Both Cloud Datastore and Firestore automatically index most of the fields in your database models.
For example, if you use Cloud Datastore with Python 2 on the Standard GAE Environment, you'd create your database model like this:
class User(ndb.Model): name = ndb.StringProperty() age = ndb.IntegerProperty() active = ndb.BooleanProperty()
By default, all three fields would be indexed. But if you don't want some (or any) of them to be indexed, you can set their
indexed attribute as False:
class User(ndb.Model): name = ndb.StringProperty(indexed=False) age = ndb.IntegerProperty(indexed=False) active = ndb.BooleanProperty(indexed=False)
You can read more about optimizing indexes in this article: Optimizing Indices In Google Cloud Datastore - How And Why?
But what if you use the new GAE Python Standard Environment, which uses Python 3 and Cloud Firestore?
You'd have to disable field indexing via the Firebase Console.
Open your Firestore database in the Firebase Console. Click on Indexes and choose the Single field tab.
This page will show up:
Then scroll down to the Exemptions section:
Click on Add exemption and add the model name and the field you'd like to have exempted from indexing:
Click Next and disable the indexes you'd like to have exempt:
Voila! You've successfully exempted a field from having an index created which will save your database storage costs.

We read another version of The Gingerbread Man today. Mrs N explained that it's a very old story that has been retold many times and it was first published in 1875, which is 136 years ago! The version we read today was by Jim Aylesworth. It was a little different to the story we read online last week. The Gingerbread Man was still chased by a little old woman, a cow and a pig, but he never tried to cross a river. The fox took him by surprise and ate him up, instead of tricking him as he crossed the river.
We're starting to learn about writing narratives. We learned that a narrative is a made-up story and is usually written to entertain us. The Gingerbread Man is a narrative and we've decided to write our own version of the story, but it's going to be set in our school. We wrote the opening paragraph of it today. It's going to be fun!
Our Monday Munchies food today was snow pea shoots and we LOVED them! Every single person in the class thought they were delicious and would definitely like to eat them again.
Some of the words we came up with to describe snow pea shoots were:

Chronicles of Narnia/Introduction/Beginner
Included Content
The Beginner reader is not expected to have fully explored the Chronicles of Narnia storyline. A Beginner reader is assumed to have read perhaps one or two of the books (maybe even none at all). Pages marked for Beginners include some short synopses of the book plots, brief introductions to some of the key characters in the series, and overviews of several important locations where many important events happen in the series.
Excluded Content
Much of the Chronicles of Narnia series has yet to be explored. A great majority of the character list as well as all of the chapter summaries are beyond the Beginner level.
What's Next
Once the reader has completed more of the Narnia series, the next step is the Intermediate level. The Intermediate level details much more of the storyline and is suited for a reader who has nearly completed reading the series.

Behavior and diet
The impala is a medium-sized antelope (Aepyceros melampus) ranging between 75 and 95 cm (30 and 37 in) tall and weighing 40 – 60 kg (88 – 130 lb). Like other antelope, impalas are herbivores that are frequently found at grassland and woodland edges, usually close to water. Their coats are a red-brown color and their haunches are white with black vertical lines down them. It is these marking that earn them the nickname of the "MacDonald's of the Serengeti," as the lines down the thighs combined with the black line down the tail look like a capital letter M. Impalas are social creatures and travel in large herds, partly for safety in numbers. The gestation period of the impala is around 200 days and they normally give birth to a single calf.

How to become a smart meter installer (with job FAQs)
Updated 25 May 2023
Smart meters give customers the ability to monitor and adjust their energy use in real-time, allowing them to save money by restricting the amount of electricity they use. Smart meters also help utility companies to monitor power grids so they can make repairs as needed, reducing outage times and improving reliability. If you're interested in working with smart meters, knowing how to get a job as a smart meter installer can be useful. In this article, we look at what a smart meter installer is, explain how to become a smart meter installer and list relevant jobs.
What is a smart meter installer?
Smart meter installers are professionals responsible for installing electronic devices that can communicate information about power or gas usage between homes and utility companies. They're also responsible for setting up the systems that allow customers to monitor their own power usage and manage their accounts online. The installation process typically involves connecting a smart meter to the customer's electrical or gas system and then connecting the meter's data wirelessly to a central server where it's accessible to utility companies. The installer ensures this process works properly. They also test the systems to ensure that they meet safety standards.

How to become a smart meter installer
Here are the steps involved in becoming a smart meter installer:
1. Complete training on how to instal smart meters
Training is necessary to become a smart meter installer. Such courses give aspirants the opportunity to learn how to use the standard equipment, the procedure for the correct setup and the qualifications to perform checks. These courses also cover the safety precautions to take when installing smart meters and working with gas and electricity. This knowledge is essential because it helps you learn how to protect both yourself and your customers when working on these projects.
There are several options for courses that teach smart meter installation, such as a level 2 diploma in gas installation, a level 2 diploma in electrical installation or a T level in building services engineering for construction. Another option would be to complete an apprenticeship as a dual fuel meter installer or to apply for trainee positions at electricity and gas companies. College courses, apprenticeships and trainee employers typically require between two and five GCSEs, including maths and English.
2. Practise installing smart meters on a dummy circuit box
Practising on a dummy circuit box is an example of how a smart meter installer in training can become familiar with installing a smart meter. By doing this in their own time, they can become well-acquainted with the technology involved at their own pace. The more familiar the installer is with the fitting process, the more likely it is that they can complete this task successfully when installing smart meters in customer homes.
3. Acquire smart meter certifications (optional)
Following training, you have the advanced option to sit the relevant smart meter electrician exam and become certified. This is because certain bodies want to ensure that you understand the job and how to be successful in this field. Certification can help in both confidence and career development, as it helps smart meter installers to stand out to recruiters when applying for jobs.
It shows they have the skills necessary to perform smart meter fittings accurately. Certification can also help customers to feel more comfortable letting fitters work in their homes. The certification process often occurs jointly through an employer and a training provider.
4. Study the latest smart meter technology and its applications
It's beneficial for qualified smart meter installers to study the latest smart meter technology and its applications. This is so that they can stay up to date on any updates in the field. For example, by studying the latest smart meter technology, you may discover that there are new methods or approaches that are more efficient to use. You can then include them in your service offerings, which gives you a competitive advantage over other installers who don't know about these updates.
It's also helpful for candidates to read up on any recent developments before they sit for an interview. This is because such knowledge allows them to showcase their proactivity to recruiters, meaning that they immediately stand out from other candidates. It also shows employers they're interviewing a dedicated, motivated individual who wants to learn more about their profession and seek new ways to improve their skill set. This can improve a candidate's chances of successfully getting the job.
Jobs related to smart meter installation
Here are some examples of similar jobs which involve installing smart meters or using them:
National average salary: £28,903 per year
Primary duties: A maintenance technician's job may involve installing smart meters, checking that they're working or repairing them. This is because their primary responsibility is to ensure that the building they're working in is in good condition and safe for people to use. They do this by cleaning, repairing and maintaining equipment. This can include anything from servicing smart meters to fixing a broken light fixture. A maintenance technician also helps when there's an emergency. A maintenance technician's job can be dangerous because they're often working with heavy machinery, hazardous materials such as chemicals, and electricity.
National average salary: £30,881 per year
Primary duties: A dual fuel meter installer is the person who installs, maintains and repairs gas and electricity meters. This means that they're responsible for installing the meters and sending the readings to your utility company. They also instal new meters, including smart meters, for both gas and electric appliances. They do this by connecting the devices together so that they can read both types of meters at once. The difference between a smart meter installer and a dual fuel meter installer is that the former specialises in installing smart meters, whereas the latter can instal other types.
National average salary: £30,275 per year
Primary duties: An energy consultant might recommend installing smart meters because they can help customers save money on their utility bills. This is because smart meters can automatically track and report on the amount of electricity or natural gas your home uses so that customers always know how much they're spending. This is helpful when creating a budget, for example.
Energy consultants may also recommend installing smart meters as they allow customers to compare their usage against publicly available data from other homes in their area, which is another way of helping them identify ways to reduce their usage and save money. The role of energy consultant is a career progression option for smart meter installers.

'Worcester Cathedral, from across the Severn'
Albumen print from calotype negative
Museum no. PH.6-1982
Taken from across the River Severn, where the county cricket ground and Kings School playing field are now located, this photograph captures the west end of the Cathedral. Predating its 1860s renovation, this image shows the transept of the cathedral missing a turret. The building at the bottom left has also been subsequently demolished leaving just the medieval masonry of the former monastic reredorter (lavatories) and undercroft to the infirmary. Other buildings can still be seen today, particularly the medieval Watergate to the right. In medieval times the river was tidal and the gateway would flood twice a day, creating a small dock where boats could unload. The river bank was changed when the promenade was created in 1844.

Javascript Web Worker example with explanation
JavaScript Web Worker example
If you're here then you've some JavaScript knowledge. Isn't it? Currently, I am working on the series of create own Observable. And previously ended the Crash course on RxJS. But I thought you should be hands on the Web Worker.
Okay, But What is Web Worker??
Long time ago, When Javascript introduce to the world. Then no one care about the performance. But after nearly 25 years, Javascript take the other language down and popular in now a day. Javascript comes with many of professional features in which one of them is web worker.
Javascript Web Worker example with explanation
Javascript Web Worker example with explanation
Understand, But my question is same. What is web worker?
Slow down mate, I am coming to the answer. Generally, Web workers are designed to let you run big jobs without freezing up the page. Have you ever faced the "Page Unresponsive" pop up message?
Page Unresponsive
If you get this message. Then you can feel the pain of this pop-up.
Your screen would be stuck and no any events can be performed until previous work is not finished. Okay let me show you the little example for you.
Click on Result in above JsFiddle. It is an example of prime number searcher between given two number. First of all, click on the Start Searching button. And try to change the number of textbox until result not showing in text-area.
Have you experience lag? Hell yeah!!!
This is the small example of this type of problem. It won't freeze your page but experience the small piece of this type of problem.
What is happening with the code?
As you experience, You won't be able to click, scroll, or interact with anything. Clearly, this page can be improved with web workers. But before you get to that, you need to take a closer look at the current JavaScript code. Right now, when you click the Search button it triggers the doSearch() function shown here:
In brief, first it grabs some information from the page, then it performs a calculation, then it insert the results back into a so you can see them.
At line 7, findPrimes() is a method to find the prime numbers between given two digits.
Okay, I got the problem. But How can I implement the web worker?
Web workers let you do any time-consuming job in the background. The process is simple:
 1. You create a web worker.
 2. You tell the web worker what to do. (For example, crunch these numbers!)
 3. You start the web worker.
 4. When the web worker is done, it tells you, and your code goes from there. (For example, show the results on your page.)
Let's dive in!
First of all, you've to create an object of web worker that runs the code in the file named PrimeWorker.js
The code that a worker runs is always stored in a separate JavaScript file. This design discourages newbie programmers from writing web worker code that attempts to use global variables or directly access elements on the page. Neither of these operations is possible.
Why? Because bad things can happen if more than one thread attempts to manipulate the same data at the same time.
Web pages and web workers communicate by exchanging messages. To send data to a worker, you call the worker's postMessage() method:

Similarly, when your worker needs to talk back to the web page, it calls its own postMessage() method, along with some data, and the web page receives an onMessage event.
Note: The postMessage() function allows only a single value.
But in this example we need two elements (two number for range). The solution is to package these two details into an object literal. This code shows one example, which gives the object two properties (the first named from, and the second named to), and assigns values to both of them:
Enough talk, now we will do real work.
Create a PrimeWorker.js file at same location and code is given below:
When the worker calls postMessage(), it fires the onMessage event, which triggers this function in the web page:
Overall, the structure of the code has changed a bit, but the logic is mostly the same. The result, however, is dramatically different.

Driving Simulator
Cybercom developed a driving simulator that puts a stroke patient in a life-like driving situation.
Assessing if a stroke patient still can drive safely can be a complex, costly and imprecise process. Aspects such as ability to focus, peripheral vision, reaction times and eye-hand coordination all needs to be evaluated and condensed into a final ruling. The doctor performs examinations and uses an array of different tools to measure various abilities, but in the end it is down to the doctors personal judgement.
Making an incorrect judgement can have grave consequences, from serious injuries or even deaths on one end and a severe limitation for the patients professional and daily life on the other.
Our solution was to develop a driving simulator that puts the patient in a life-like driving situation while providing certain stimulus and measuring the patient's ability to react timely and accurately without compromising their driving. The simulator calculates and provides several test results that can be directly compared to other patients.
Clinical Trials have been conducted and a total of 120 stroke patients participated in the tests and another 120 non-stroke patients have been used as a control group. Preliminary findings indicate a strong correlation between Cybersim and the current leading tool with the possibility that Cybersim can provide additional, relevant data since it measures more aspects of the driving.
The clinical trials of Cybersim also provided some valuable feedback on how to improve the product. Innovation Zone therefore started work on a second version, based on an improved framework and a revised specification, early 2017.
The second version has modifications and improvements that makes it more suitable for wider deployment in the medical sector and is currently being evaluated in Linköping.

Power flushing is a technique used to clear sludge from central heating system pipes, radiators, coils and heat exchangers. These are areas where scale and corrosion can collect, the symptoms are usually:
- Cold spots on radiators, even after bleeding
- Takes a long time for radiators to warm up
- Noisy boiler
- Radiators needing regular bleeding
- Inefficient central heating system
Once a power flush is complete, you can expect the following benefits:
- Pipes and radiators will get hotter quicker
- More cost efficient system
- Less stress on the boiler
- Increased life of the boiler
- Heat will be distributed more evenly throughout the home
Central heating boilers can fail early if there is excessive sludge in the system, modern condensing boilers are much more sensitive so it's recommended to have a full system flush before installing a new boiler. There is no point in paying for an expensive piece of kit that may fail early because of excessive sludge build up in the system!
You should also check the guarantee on any new boiler as most manufacturers will not accept a claim if the system hasn't been recently power flushed.


Animal Transport
What is an Animal Transport?
Animal transport is the commercial transport of live animals using motor vehicles. This also applies to the movement of animals in Germany as defined by the German Animal Welfare Transport Ordinance. The animal transportation involves the movement of livestock.
The conditions under which the animals may be transported are legally regulated in the European Regulation on the Protection of Animals during Transport. This regulation has been in force for all member states since January 2007. In Germany, the European requirements are implemented by means of a national animal welfare transport ordinance.

Two scientists from WKU's China Environmental Health Project (CEHP) returned this week from rural southwest China where they trained government scientists in techniques for understanding and protecting karst water resources.
Sean Vanderhoff of Louisville, a recent graduate of WKU master's in geoscience program, joined Dr. Chris Groves, CEHP and Hoffman Institute director, traveling to the Institute of Karst Geology (IKG) in Guilin. There they gave lectures and participated in fieldwork describing specialized methods of underground water tracing to support both water resource protection and joint U.S./China efforts to measure aspects of the global carbon cycle.
The Institute of Karst Geology is China's premier karst research facility and operates under the auspices of the Ministry of Land and Resources. Much of its work is focused on understanding and finding solutions to water supply and quality problems in China's karst regions, which impact tens of millions of mostly rural people.
The China Environmental Health Project, a program of WKU's Hoffman Environmental Research Institute, works to develop partnerships in China and internationally to enhance China's academic capacity building in environmental health and resource protection. Through 30 WKU trips to China since 1995, and supported by numerous visits of Chinese scientists to WKU, the joint teams have set up laboratories, implemented training seminars and fieldwork for scientists and government officials, and published papers in scientific journals. Most of this work has been under the auspices of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
The pair gave several lectures and conducted fieldwork in the Maocun Groundwater Basin near Guilin, which is a sister research site with Lost River Cave in Bowling Green. Vanderhoff also visited Southwest University in Chongqing to evaluate conditions at a groundwater tracing laboratory there established by CEHP in 2007, and he also gave several more lectures to about 50 scientists and graduate students.
"This was the perfect opportunity for Sean to use the experience he developed as a graduate student at WKU to help our Chinese colleagues develop new skills in groundwater protection," Groves said. "The same technology is also providing direct benefits to China's serious efforts to quantify CO2 budgeting and how it is impacting climate change."
The trip and related efforts were supported by matching grants from the Chinese government and WKU's Office of Research through its Research and Creative Activity (RCAP) Program.
Dr. David Keeling, Geography and Geology Department Head, noted: "Dr. Groves' engagement with the Chinese on matters of global scientific importance is a wonderful example of WKU's international reach. Our mission in the department is to engage with communities across the planet to help address the most pressing resource issues of the 21st century. The CEHP is one of many exciting opportunities for faculty, students, and colleagues directed by the Hoffman Institute that are making a real difference in people's lives."

Aboriginal mothers in prison in Australia: a study of social, emotional and physical wellbeing
- Publication Type:
- Journal Article
- Australian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health, 2019, 43 (3), pp. 241 - 247
- Issue Date:
© 2019 The Authors Objective: To describe the social, emotional and physical wellbeing of Aboriginal mothers in prison. Methods: Cross-sectional survey, including a Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (5-item version) administered to Aboriginal women who self-identified as mothers. Results: Seventy-seven Aboriginal mothers in New South Wales (NSW) and 84 in Western Australia (WA) participated in the study. Eighty-three per cent (n=59) of mothers in NSW were in prison for drug-related offences, 64.8% (n=46) of mothers in WA were in prison for offences committed under the influence of alcohol. Sixty-eight per cent (n=52) of mothers in NSW and 35% (n=28) of mothers in WA reported mental health problems. Physical (PCS) and Mental (MCS) component scores of SF-12 varied for mothers in NSW and WA. Mothers in NSW experienced poorer health and functioning than mothers in WA (NSW: PCS 49.5, MCS 40.6; WA: PCS 54.4, MCS 48.3) and high levels of psychological distress (NSW: 13.1; WA 10.1). Conclusions: Aboriginal mothers in prison have significant health needs associated with physical and mental health, and psychological distress. Implications for public health: Adoption of social and emotional wellbeing as an explanatory framework for culturally secure healthcare in prison is essential to improving health outcomes of Aboriginal mothers in prison in Australia.

Hole that swallowed a three-storey building

Sinkholes mainly formed where the ground was made up of layered rock, such as limestone, which could be dissolved or washed away with groundwater. Such areas were called karst formations, he said. The Jenolan Caves, three hours' drive from Sydney, are examples of local karst formations.
Bruce Hebblewhite, head of mining engineering at the University of NSW, said it was "highly unlikely" a sinkhole would ever form in NSW.
"There might be very localised areas in this country where we have such limestone but certainly not in urban areas and it's not common," Professor Hebblewhite said.
"If it were to happen it would only be the areas where we have similar geology, which are very few, and we would almost certainly be aware that there was such a development taking place.
"So it's just not on the agenda at all."
Associate Professor Cox said it generally took thousands of years for cracks and caves to form in the Earth's crust.
''But they can be enhanced by removing and pumping out groundwater, or extracting petroleum products in nearby formations,'' he said.
Rainwater seeping into the ground could also erode soluble rocks and further extend the caves. Depressions in the Earth's surface could also occur as a result of the same processes.
Sinkholes could vary in size and depth from a few metres to several hundred metres. They have formed in southern parts of Britain, the US and Europe.
The sinkhole in Guatemala City, which formed below the northern part of the capital city, was probably triggered by tropical storm Agatha, which has devastated the region.
''When you get these heavy storms and cyclones that put a lot of water into the drainage system they might wash into these [caves] and erode the top of the cave,'' Associate Professor Cox said. ''[Then] it propagates upwards to the surface and all falls in.''
A local newspaper reported that only one person was killed.

Waterfall 202 - Splits with Hurdles Template
The Splits with Hurdles Template allows users to split distribution cash flow similar to the Split Template, but now adding in a hurdle rate to end the rule. The IMS system currently supports hurdles based on IRR, Equity Multiple, Return of Capital, and Preferred Return. The system will support multiple hurdles such as an IRR of 15% and an Equity Multiple of 1.80x.
Pre-Conditions For Use:
The Entity must have at least two Classes to split distribution cash flow.
Input Fields:
Percentage: Input the % of the available cash that will be directed to the first class
Class: Select the class that the % just input will correspond to
Distribution Method: Choose how the system should allocate the distributions between the investors within the selected class.
 - Pro-rata by Ownership: Most common choice. The amount distributed will be allocated according to each investor's class ownership percentage. If more than one class is being allocated to it will look to entity ownership.
 - Prorata by Unpaid Preferred Return: Typically, only appropriate for use with the preferred return template. The amount distributed will be allocated according to each investor's percentage of the total amount of unpaid preferred return. For example, if you are distributing $50,000 but $100,000 of preferred return is accrued total to all investors and John Smith has accrued $1000 (1%), he will be paid 1% of the total distribution amount, or $500.
 - Equal Distributions: if everyone receives the exact same amount (one off)
 - Total Amount: Generally, not recommended. Only to be used if there is only one investor, as it will allocate the total amount of the distribution to each investor.
Distribution Sub-Type: Select the bucket that best represents the cash flow (typically Excess Cash or Promote)
Assign Hurdle to Class: Select the Class(es) that will need to hit the hurdle before ending the rule
Hurdle: Select the appropriate Hurdle: IRR, Equity Multiple, Preferred Return ("its preferred return" will use the pre-set rate specified in class preferences "A preferred return" will allow you to specify a different rate), Return of Capital, or a specific percentage as applicable
Hurdle Rate: Input the applicable hurdle expressed as a percentage
Similar to the Splits Template without hurdles, you can add additional classes to the template by selecting the + button to the right of the splits. You can also have multiple hurdles if you select the plus button. Typical combinations include an IRR Hurdle and Equity Multiple. Once the Class that the Hurdle is tied to has met the required threshold, the system will go on to the next rule.

What Moves Swiss Franc Currency Futures?
usdchf price study
Swiss Franc currency futures are widely traded in the currency future markets and Swiss Franc is one of the most stable currency in the world's foreign exchange market
It is the national currency for the European countries of Switzerland and Liechtenstein. The Swiss currency is regulated by the Swiss National Bank (SNB).
For decades, Switzerland has been an international banking and financial center This currency is considered stable because it is strongly backed by the Swiss government's gold reserves. The Swiss economy is also a very strong economy and as a result the currency is not likely to suffer from frequent and sudden spike in value.
Swiss Franc is considered a safe haven currency by countries around the world.
Daily Swiss Franc Prices (CME)
Economic Indicators Affecting Swiss Franc Currency Futures
Switzerland's Unemployment Rate
Recently one of the most important economic indicators that has influenced the Swiss Franc exchange rate has been the rising unemployment rate. Major Swiss companies in the retail sector, travel and banking are worried that a strengthening Swiss Franc might lead to a rise in unemployment.
In addition, the Swiss National Bank expects Swiss GNP growth to fall slightly this year. Clearly these would not help improve the employment rate. The growth of the Swiss economy has been affected and has exerted some downward pressure on the currency.
usdchf point and figure chart
Swiss Franc Currency Futures Strengthening Due To European Problems
Over the past few months, the Swiss currency appreciated in value against the Euro. This was the result of the financial meltdown in European countries like Greece,Spain and Ireland. External trade with other European countries affects the strength of the Swiss Franc. Two thirds of all trade is conducted with Europe.
Investors panicked and there had been a stampede to convert their currencies to Swiss money. The appreciation of Swiss Franc does not help Swiss companies as it causes a fall of exports to other European countries. Conversely, a stronger European economy would lead to a fall in value of their Currency and Swiss companies would be able to increase exports to other European countries.
Government Intervention In Swiss Franc Currency
The recent rise in value of their currency affected the growth of the Swiss economy. To protect their economy the Swiss government warned that they would buy up unlimited amount of foreign currencies in an attempt to protect their own currency.
This strong talk has convinced foreign exchange investors that they should not attempt to continue trading in a manner that would further drive up the value of the Swiss Franc or else the Swiss government could intervene.
Swiss Franc Is Stable
This currency will continue to be regarded as a very stable currency due to the fact that it is backed by the Swiss Government. It is also the world's best inflation-resistant money. It is well-know that Switzerland has a strong workforce, with the banking and insurance industry employing over fifty per cent of the population.
Hence the Swiss Franc currency futures will continue to be regarded as one of the safest bet by investors in times of uncertainty.

In this paper, we employ message passing algorithms over graphical models to jointly detect and decode symbols transmitted over large multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels with low density parity check (LDPC) coded bits. We adopt a factor graph based technique to integrate the detection and decoding operations. A Gaussian approximation of spatial interference is used for detection. This serves as a low complexity joint detection/decoding approach for large dimensional MIMO systems coded with LDPC codes of large block lengths. This joint processing achieves significantly better performance than the individual detection and decoding scheme.

Introduction: To determine the relationship between housing instability, economic standing, and access to health care and use of acute care services.
Methods: We performed a meta-regression using four nationally representative surveys. The independent variable was an ordered measure of economic and housing instability: 1) the general population, 2) low-income population, 3) never homeless users-of-subsistence-services, 4) unstably housed, 5) formerly homeless, and 6) the actively homeless. Dependent variables were four measures of health care access and three measures of acute health care utilization.
Results: Worsening housing instability and economic standing was associated with poorer access: being uninsured (5.4% per unit increase, 95% CI 1.7-9.2%, p=.011), postponing needed care (3.3%, 95% CI 1.9-4.7%, p=.001), postponing medications (6.1%, 95% CI 1.5-10.6%, p=.035), and with one measure of acute health care utilization: higher hospitalization rates (2.9%, 95% CI 1.2-4.6%, p=.008).
Discussion: Economic and housing instability should be considered a graded risk factor for poor access to health care.

Leading up to today, Disney Parks commissioned the most comprehensive survey on vacation memories ever undertaken. Travel trend watcher Ypartnership surveyed 3,600 Americans and Canadians about what makes today's family vacations memorable for both parents and children and there's some interesting findings we can share with you now:
- Nine out of 10 parents said they planned their vacations with the express hope that they would result in a lasting family memory.
- More than two-thirds of family travelers say they think back "often" or "very often" on their favorite vacation experiences.
- Digital photos represent the most popular way to memorialize vacation memories today, cited by 82 percent of respondents.
- The most positive vacation memories are associated with vacations that include both parents and siblings.
- Traditional photo albums remain the preferred method of sharing vacation memories, but 45 percent of family vacationers now post vacation content on social media sites.
- One out of five family travelers share the events that make the memories "real time" as they actually occur.
Here's an interview with Ypartnership CEO Peter Yesawich who shares more insight into some vacation memory trends.
