Capital Investments – Improving Ontario's Schools
Since 2003, the Ontario government has invested $11.6 billion to make schools better places to learn. When students are in good learning environments, they can focus on learning and personal achievement.
Priority Capital Investments
In January 2013, the Ministry announced over $700 million in Capital Priority and FullDay Kindergarten funding to support school boards' Capital Priority projects needed in the next three years. These include building new schools and additions/retrofits to address enrolment growth, to support full-day kindergarten, to replace schools in poor condition and to support school consolidations.
A complete list of the 39 new schools and 48 additions/retrofits funded by this investment can be found here: New Schools and Additions
This funding is in addition to the more than $1 billion in new capital funding over three years that was announced in 2011-12. This included:
The government has provided just over $1.4 billion in capital funding since 2010 to support the full-day kindergarten (FDK) program. This funding is used by school boards to create the extra classrooms required to accommodate the program and to support the first-time equipping needs of new FDK classrooms. This funding supports the creation of close to 3,400 new kindergarten classrooms, in 3,675 schools, through additions and major retrofits.
FDK is scheduled to be fully implemented by September 2014.
Good Places to Learn
The Ontario government's Good Places to Learn program was launched in 2005 to address the backlog of urgent school renewal needs and the need for new schools around the province. Projects included building new schools and expanding and retrofitting existing school facilities. Highlights of this investment include:
As of fall 2012:
Greening Ontario's Schools
The government has provided $550 million to make schools more energy efficient, while supporting a stronger and greener economy. This Energy Efficient Schools investment included:
The government also invested $50 million for public school boards to reduce energy costs in schools by installing renewable energy technologies for heating or cooling schools or generating electricity. This investment is supporting 135 projects in 126 schools (PDF, 20 KB). The projects cover a range of renewable energy technologies, including:
These projects will help green the energy supply and help school boards save money on energy costs or earn revenue by selling electricity back to the grid. By reinvesting savings and revenue into local schools, boards will have more money to support student success. Solar panels and wind turbines can sell electricity back to the grid through the microFIT Program, an important part of the Green Energy Act.
In addition, the Green Schools Pilot Initiative invested $20 million in a variety of innovative green products and technologies in more than 150 Ontario schools. Learn more about these pilot projects across the province.

Layered rendering part 2, it helps solve many problems… :-)
As part of Qt 4.5, we added QGraphicsItem::opacity. Which is great! But it doesn't work as well as it could. We're receiving a few comments about how this implementation could work better. Trouble is, in Qt 4.5 we only have two ways of rendering: direct, and indirect ("cached", e.g., ItemCoordinateCache). And in order to apply opacity, you really need full composition support... :-/
Here's a rundown of the trouble with today's opacity support:
 - The current behavior modifies the input opacity of the painter
 - you can override this opacity on a per-item basis (intentionally or not!)
 -...and each primitive (line, rect, pixmap) you draw with QPainter will be composed one at a time inside the item (which is bad!)
 - The behavior is slightly different depending on whether you cache an item or not.
 -...if you use caching, the offscreen pixmap is rendered with an opacity, whereas the item itself doesn't have any opacity set on its painter.
 - Each item applies opacity locally, and even though opacity propagates to children, each item is still rendered by itself, cause each item to be transparent (as opposed to rendering one subtree as a whole with an opacity)
All these problems could have been solved if we treated opacity as an effect that you can apply to one layer as a whole, instead of on each item. I think this is how opacity should work in the first place... but that's how it goes sometimes. But fear not, we can fix this in a later release! :-)
To illustrate the current behavior, here's what you get if you construct a scene with four items, each a child of the previous item, in colors red, then green, then blue, then yellow. Logical structure in hypothetical markup:
Rect {
 color: red;
 rect: QRectF(0, 0, 100, 100);
 child : Rect {
 color : green;
 pos: QPointF(25, 25);
 opacity: 0.5;
 child : Rect {
 color : blue;
 pos: QPointF(25, 25);
 rotation: 45;
 child : Rect {
 color : yellow;
 pos: QPointF(25, 25);
 scale: 2x2;
This will in Qt 4.5 render the following output:
Opacity, in Qt 4.5
What's important to notice here is how all elements are transparent; so you can see the blue through the yellow item, the green through the blue item, and the red item through the green item. But the yellow item doesn't actually have any opacity assigned. It inherits opacity from the green item (opacity: 0.5).
By rendering the "green sub-tree" into a separate layer, we can combine all items and apply one uniform opacity as part of composing these items together. In my last blog I wrote about off-screen rendering. This work has progressed and is in quite a usable state (although the code is really ugly). It works! The rendering output for the same application as the above looks like this:
Opacity, in Qt 4.6
The essential difference is how the "green sub-tree" is treated as if it had one _combined_ opacity. The yellow item, for example, isn't transparent by itself at all. You can't see the blue through the yellow. By "collapsing" the subtree into a single layer we can both avoid unnecessary rerendering of items (i.e., if you move the green item around, the children are not repainted, not even from cache). Which is pretty cool!
(We get this at the cost of allocating and spending an extra pixmap, and the first time we render there's an extra level of indirection.)
But there's even more applications to this technique... :-) With code for handling explicit composition of layers, we can now use pixmap filters and shaders to compose one layer onto another. And this is very useful for any future effects API we might add to Qt in general. Imagine applying a gaussian blur effect to the layer represented by the green item. The result is below:
Opacity w/blur, in Qt 4.6
The result is very neat; the whole layer is blurred before it's rendered. You don't get funny artifacts that might have occurred in overlapping regions if each of the items was blurred individually.
Now none of this gives any mind-blowing screenshots (at least not yet), but it's an important step that provides faster rendering of subtrees (as sliding and transforming a complex graph of items ends up just being matrix operations on a single pixmap/texture, and in software this prevents overdrawing), a more accurate processing of the opacity property of QGraphicsItem, and it makes it very easy to apply fancy composition effects to groups of items.
Questions: Should layers be explicitly defined, or implicitly handled by logics inside Graphics View? In the example above, I've used the opacity property to detect whether an item's subtree should be rendered into a separate layer or not. This is easy to do and very clear/unsurprising. But what if you want to collapse a subtree for performance reasons? An alternative, or possibly an additional approach would be to add an explicit setting: QGraphicsItem::setLayer(true) or setCacheMode(QGraphicsItem::DeepItemCoordinateCache). I'm torn. Experimentation and feedback will show (yes I know I need to push this code out, once our SCM goes public this will be much easier!).
There's also the problem with these darn flags QGraphicsItem::ItemIgnoresParentOpacity and QGraphicsItem::ItemDoesntPropagateOpacityToChildren. There's no way to make these flags work with a layered rendering approach. But are these flags very important, or could we just (*cough* *cough*) disable/deprecate them? ;-)
Finally I still haven't found out how to handle ItemIgnoresTransformations. The most probable solution is that these items are automatically rendered into a separate layer.
Happy hacking! :-)

Cart Ruts Mystery Solved
From The Portsmouth News:
Researchers at the University of Portsmouth believe they have solved an ancient Mediterranean mystery.
The mystery of how 2ft deep tracks were cut into the rock of Malta has been a puzzle for years.
Now Professor Derek Mottershead, of the university's geography department, has followed generations of scholars to unravel the mysteries of the Maltese landscape.
The tracks, or ruts, were almost certainly caused by carts because the rock was not strong enough to support the wooden wheels of loaded carts.
They are up to 2ft deep and more than 30km of them run in pairs criss-crossing the island.
Professor Mottershead's team came up with a design of a cart to fit the field evidence, estimated its weight and calculated the stresses involved.
They discovered that in some places the rock was so soft that after heavy rain a single passage of a cart could cause the rock to fail.
Professor Mottershead said: 'The ruts have been studied and talked about for centuries and though it is obvious they are related to vehicles nobody understood how they were made or even when.
'The underlying rock in Malta is weak and when it's wet it loses about 80 per cent of its strength.
'What is unique to Malta is the sheer number of ruts. For years they have attracted the attention of archaeologists but until now we didn't have a convincing explanation of the mechanics of how they could have been formed.'
The team included Dr Alastair Pearson and Martin Schaefer, also of the University of Portsmouth. Their research was published in the journal Antiquity.

Stream stage at Peachtree Creek
High-tech instrumentation is not the only tool used to analyze flood-flow information. Something a simple as a "seed line" can help determine how high the water was (and the subsequent stream stage) during a flood at Peachtree Creek. Instruments that read stream stage can indicate how high the stream stage was during a storm, but cannot show how high water got in the surrounding land and how much land will flood when Peachtree Creek overflows its banks (unless detailed surveys are conducted). One way to determine this is to use high-water marks that occur during floods. If hydrologists can find a high-water mark on a tree or mailbox after a storm, then that information combined with the stream-stage data (from stream-stage records) can be used to estimate how much flooding will occur at different stream stages.
Take our quiz:
Find the high-water marks.

Hydro Energy Røldal-Suldal
Hydro's part-owned power system in Røldal-Suldal consists of reservoirs and seven hydroelectric power stations along the Røldal and Suldal watershed and terminating at Suldal Lake. These are; Vasstøl, Suldal I, Suldal II, Svandalsflona, Røldal, Novle, Middyr and Kvanndal
Nesflaten power operations
These nine power stations are; Suldal I, Suldal II, Røldal, Novle, Kvanndal, Svandalsflona, Middyr, Vasstøl and Midtlæger.
At the bottom of the page you see pictures of the power stations.
The fall rights in Røldal and Suldalsdraget were bought by Hydro already in the 1950s, with the aim to acquire power for a new aluminum plant at Karmøy. The hydropower plants Suldal I, Røldal, Suldal II, Kvanndal and Novle were expanded one by one and completed in 1968. Later, the power stations Svandalsflona, Middyr, Vasstøl and Midtlæger were added. At the same time as the main development of the power plants took place, Hydro's aluminum plant on Karmøy was built. Thanks to new technology, it was now possible to transport the power on its own lines, and thus the hydropower plants in Røldal and Suldal could become the main suppliers of power to the aluminum production on Karmøy.
The power plants in the "Western watercourse" utilize a fall from the highest reservoir Nupstjørn 1302 meters above sea level (masl) down to Suldalsvatn 68 masl. The power stations are located one after the other in the watercourse, so energy can be used several times. The water from Nupstjørn, for example, flows through five power stations before reaching Suldalsvatnet. In the "Eastern watercourse" one utilizes the fall from Holmevatn 1058 masl and down to Suldalsvatn 68 masl.
Here, the water passes through two power stations, where the highest utilized single case is about 560. The plant consists of 17 regulation reservoirs and 21 stream intakes. The main reservoirs are Votna, Valldalen, Røldalsvatn, Sandvatn and Holmevatn.
Lyse Kraft DA
The Røldal-Suldal facilities are owned by the hydropower company Lyse Kraft DA. Hydro and Lyse have merged parts of hydropower production in southern Norway into a joint hydropower company, Lyse Kraft DA, which is Norway's third largest hydropower player.
The transaction was completed on 31 December 2020, and you can read more about the hydropower agreement here.
Lyse Kraft DA has a normal annual power production capacity of 9.5 TWh, of which Hydro owns 25.6 per cent and Lyse 74.4 per cent. As part of the agreement, Hydro will remain the operator of RSK and will now also take over the operatorship of Lyses' hitherto wholly owned hydropower plant. Lyse will be responsible for marketing activities and water disposal.
As a result of the agreement, Hydro is Norway's third largest operator of renewable power production, with a total production of 13.6 TWh in a normal year. Adjusted for ownership, Hydro's annual power production is 9.4 TWh in a normal year.

Prototype built-in | SuperOffice Community
Prototype built-in
In this article
 Prepare the central database Prototype In order to use SuperOffice CRM 7 without being connected to the network, associates must first perform a local update to transfer information from the central database to a local database.
 The local update is based on an update prototype, which is a copy of the central database and contains the same information that the central database contained when the update prototype was generated. It is much quicker and more efficient to copy a single file than to copy data from a complex database (by a factor of 50 or more). With the prototype as an intermediary, the local update is performed more rapidly.
 To generate an update prototype from the Maintenance Client:
 1. Open the Replication screen in the Maintenance Client.
 2. Click the Generate prototype button on the right of the screen.
 Note: If you are using Area Management, there will be a dialog box allowing you to choose the area required.
 3. A dialog box opens, asking you to confirm that you want to start prototype generation. Choose OK.
 The generation is started. A message box displays the progress of the task.
 Note: The update prototype is saved centrally to the SO_ARC\TEMPLATE\TRAVEL folder, with the name TravelAREA0.DB if you are using a built-in database, or AREA0.DB if you are using a Sybase database, so that all Travel users use the same prototype. The MSDE database files is located in the ProtoServerPath folder. While a prototype is being generated, no-one will be able to activate the Travel function.
 4. Once the task has completed, the status message box closes and you are returned to the Replication screen. The prototype is now ready for use.
 At any stage after an update prototype has been generated, each individual user will be able to perform a local update to transfer information from the central database to his or her own local database.
 Note - You may use different kinds of travel databases on the different areas, but you need to use a supported travel database type.

By fading of your radio signal we mean that incident wave change in the sector strength of signal received from distant transmitter. The fading of signal may be put in the following two categories namely general fading or synchronous fading and selective fading. The fading is caused because of interference between waves that have traveled by slightly different paths. The fading generally is slow taking some minutes to visit from maximum to minimum signal strength. Generally the entire signal fades synchronously. Such a fading is known as general fading or synchronous fading. Amplitude modulated signals traveling through ionosphere experience general fading. The fading might be sensitive to frequency. Thus in amplitude modulated carrier wave the carrier as well as the two side bands may well not fade inside and out synchronously. Such a fading is called as selective fading. Selective fading commonly ends in signals involving large bandwidth like frequency … Read the rest

Thinking With Pigs
Certain animals, as the anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss explained in his study of totemism, are good for thinking with (Totemism, 1963). Here are a collection of quotations from individuals, both eminent and obscure, that use pigs in their speech.
In our thoughts and words, pigs are generous figures of speech. They freely lend their intrinsic nature to us for simile and metaphor, hyperbole and idiom. Pigs are also handy to use in personification or in analogy and allegory. And pigs are certainly good for swearing.
The thought of 'pig' in all its attendant meanings is an indispensable element of language in every culture that has encountered the pig. Handy and useful, 'pig' augments the meaning of many concepts — appearance, attitude, behavior, food and even currency.
Throughout the pig's association with man, their use to think and speak with has farrowed ideas and images as fit for a reflective pig as for a man to consider. Many within our swinish multitude have seen fit to utilize the pig in thoughts and words and our world is far richer for it.

Yes. The frightened condition and the damage caused by the spell are separate.
I read the (amended) spell description as follows:
You tap into the nightmares of a creature you can see within range and create an illusory manifestation of its deepest fears, visible only to that creature.
- The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the target becomes frightened for the duration.
- At the end of each of the target's turns before the spell ends, the target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw
or take 4d10 psychic damage. On a successful save, the spell ends.
Crucially, successful save in the last sentence refers only to the Wisdom saving throw mentioned in the previous sentence; it's describing the corresponding outcome for success to the clause describing failure in the preceding sentence.
Thus, nothing in the spell description makes the psychic damage or the spell duration conditional upon the target being susceptible to the frightened condition. Likewise, if the target was immune to psychic damage but not to the frightened condition, they would still be frightened for the spell's duration.
Since the ongoing psychic damage is independent of the frightened condition, that part of the spell continues to apply if the target is frightened and later becomes immune to being frightened, or has that condition removed.
Contrast this with the description of Fear: (PHB, p. 239)
Each creature in a 30-foot cone must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or... become frightened for the duration.
While frightened by this spell, a creature must take the Dash action and move away from you by the safest available route on each of its turns, unless there is nowhere to move. If the creature ends its turn in a location where it doesn't have line of sight to you, the creature can make a Wisdom saving throw. On a successful save, the spell ends for that creature.
Fear is similar to Phantasmal Killer in that it initially imposes a condition on the target(s), and then has additional effects on each of the targets' turns. But, unlike Phantasmal Killer, Fear makes it clear that the ongoing effects are conditional on the initial condition by using the conditional phrase "While frightened by this spell... ". There is no such condition applied to the ongoing damage effect of Phantasmal Killer, so it doesn't seem reasonable to read the spell as having the first saving throw mitigate all of the further described effects.
Thus, the target of Phantasmal Killer makes a save when the spell is cast, and is frightened if it fails, and they make a save on each of their turns while the spell is in effect. As soon as they succeed on any of the second kind of saves, the spell ends (and it will also end if the caster loses concentration, or one minute passes).

Before you start you will need an android tablet and a wireless router in the Lab.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab E and an Airport Express, but other tablets and routers should work as well.
To install knobby tablet follow the following steps:
- Download knobby tablet from the Google Play store.
- Download and install the latest version of Scanbox (as always keep a copy of previous version).
- Download and install PyOSC. To install, open a terminal, go to the directory where you uncompressed PyOSC, and type "python setup.py install".
- Copy over the settings in the scanbox_config.m file.
- Connect the computer running Scanbox to your local wireless router
- Open a terminal window and check the IP assigned to the computer by typing ifconfig.
- Set the tri_knob configuration variable in scanbox_config.m to a string that contains the IP address, for example, '184.108.40.206'.
- Start Scanbox. You should also get a command window with the knobby tablet console. We will check if commands from the tablet are received there.
- Open knobby tablet on your Android. You will likely get a message saying that the default IP is invalid. Click Ok.
- Click on the IP number button. A keyboard will show up. Enter the IP number you found above. However, make sure that every section has 3 digits (use zeros if necessary). Thus, in the example above, one would type 164.034.123.031
- If the tablet cannot connect, you will see an "Invalid IP" message. Otherwise, you should be ready to go. The IP gets stored in the tablet, so launching knobby tablet later will retrieve it.
- Remove the objective from the microscope (just in case).
- Make sure the scope is roughly in the middle of its travel for all axes.
- Click the "Normal" button on the tablet. Do you see a message printed on the knobby console? If so, communication is working Ok. If not, something is wrong. Contact me.
- Stand close to the motor box so you can quickly power it off if something does not work as expected.
- Now touch the button corresponding to the Z axis on the red region. The z-axis will begin to move so long as you keep touching it. The speed of movement will be faster the farther away you are from the center. Slide your finger left and right, the speed will change and it should reverse if you move over to the blue side.
- Test the other axes.
- Touch "Velocity" to switch to velocity mode.
- Warning: the microscope will move fast now… Touch the red or blue areas of each button. The microscope will move at a fast/fixed speed so long as you keep touching the area. It will stop when you release.
- Store/Recall buttons work as before
- Go back and try the Fine and Super-Fine modes.
- Play with it for a while and install the objective back after you familiarize yourself with the tablet interface and everything seems to be working Ok.
- You can minimize the knobby console once testing is done (I will do this automatically in future versions).
- The green buttons on the side lock the button area (bottom) or knob area (top). So if you are acquiring data and don't want to have a situation where people touch the tablet by mistake and move the microscope you can use the buttons to lock them. Touching them again will unlock.
- Make sure you open knobby on your tablet after you start Scanbox.
If you run into problems don't hesitate to write.

Conveyancing and the Advantages of Seeking Professional Help
By law, conveyancing is the act of transferring the contract deeds of one property, such as a house or office space, from one owner to another. Certainly, each person has once in their life experienced selling or buying a property that is why ample knowledge in this field is highly advised. Although the mere act of conveyancing can be done by anybody, more and more people are hiring the services of professionals.
In this article, we will discuss the advantages of seeking the help of a professional conveyancer on this legal matter.
 1. They are knowledgeable
How extensive is your knowledge in assets law, bidding, contract exchange, and real estate matters? If your answer is not much, it is really a good idea to get help for your conveyancing needs from more knowledgeable people. Conveyancers hold a license issued by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers and have spent a lot of time studying all there is in the industry. They can answer your questions better than any research you will get from the Internet. Besides, their knowledge is what you have paid their conveyancing fees for.
 1. They hold a great amount of practical experience
They will know exactly how to manage your case as they have already dealt with similar situations before. They know the right people to talk to. They know which official to speak with at the Local Authority to find out if there are factors that may affect the value of the property, for example. Your conveyancer will guide you in every step of the way and will give valuable advice on the process. Because of their substantial experience, no problem is too big for them as they can find a way out of that difficulty.
 1. They are your legal representatives
This is one of the great things about hiring a conveyancer. They will be the ones to process the transaction on your behalf so all you have to focus on is moving to your new house if you are the buyer, or receiving the money from the purchase as the seller. You will not have to carry the burden of sitting in seemingly endless meetings, bidding, or dealing with paper works. Because of these professionals, clients find conveyancing not as stressful and time-consuming.
These are just some of the benefits you can take advantage of when you employ the services of a conveyancer. However, it is very important to do a background check on the conveyancer you are eyeing to know if he is suitable for the job. There are a lot of conveyancer solicitors around, they come in varying credentials, conveyancing fees, and areas of experience. Never entrust your property and your money without doing the mandatory research.
Conveyancing is a crucial part in any property transaction. Finding the right professional is essential for a smooth property deed transfer. Good luck on your search!

Therefore, a geopotential height observation represents the height of the
pressure surface on which the observation was taken.
A line drawn on a weather map connecting points of equal height (in meters)
is called a height contour. That means, at every point along a
given contour, the values of geopotential height are the same. An image

You may need to learn whether water is present in a hydraulic reservoir, contaminating the fluid. This problem normally occurs when the reservoir ingests humid ambient air as the fluid level drops. Later, when the system cools, water can condense on the inside of the reservoir's walls. In other situations, sanitary requirements may dictate an equipment washdown. In either case, a water-contamination check should follow.
Two very simple tools — a spoon and a cigarette lighter — can accomplish this test. Fill the spoon with fluid from the reservoir, then heat it over the lighter. In about 30 seconds if water is present, you'll see bubbles forming at the bottom of the spoon and rising to the fluid surface. If there's no water, no bubbles will appear.

"Towards optimal prediction of chaotic signals" by Divakar Viswanath
April 11, 2011 - 11:00am
Abstract: Suppose that x(t) is a signal generated by a chaotic system and that the signal has been recorded in the interval [0,T]. We ask: What is the largest value t_f such that the signal can be predicted in the interval (T,T+t_f] using the history of the signal and nothing more? We show that the answer to this question is contained in a major result of modern information theory proved by Wyner, Ziv, Ornstein, and Weiss. All current algorithms for predicting chaotic series assume that if a pattern of events in some interval in the past is similar to the pattern of events leading up to the present moment, the pattern from the past can be used to predict the chaotic signal. Unfortunately, this intuitively reasonable idea is fundamentally deficient and all current predictors fall well short of the Wyner-Ziv bound. We explain why the current methods are deficient and develop some ideas for deriving an optimal predictor. [This talk is based on joint work with X. Liang and K. Serkh].

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

We consider the collisions of plane gravitational and electromagnetic waves with
distinct wavefronts and of arbitrary polarizations in a Minkowski background. We
first present a new, completely geometric formulation of the characteristic initial
value problem for solutions in the wave interaction region for which initial data are
those associated with the approaching waves. We present also a general approach to
the solution of this problem which enables us in principle to construct solutions in
terms of the specified initial data. This is achieved by re-formulating the nonlinear
dynamical equations for waves in terms of an associated linear problem on the
spectral plane. A system of linear integral "evolution" equations which solve this
spectral problem for specified initial data is constructed. It is then demonstrated
explicitly how various colliding plane wave space-times can be constructed from
given characteristic initial data.
This pre-print has been submitted, and accepted, for publication in the journal, Classical and quantum gravity. The definitive version: ALEKSEEV, G.A, and GRIFFITHS, J.B., 2004. Collision of plane gravitational and electromagnetic

Family Presence During Resuscitation: Extending Ethical Norms from Pediatrics to Adults
Guest Post: Christine Vincent and Zohar Lederman
Paper: Family presence during resuscitation: extending ethical norms from paediatrics to adults
Family Presence During Resuscitation is an important ethical issue for discussion within the medical community. Currently, family presence is more commonly accepted in paediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) than adult CPR. However, we argue that this fact is not morally justified and that the case for family presence during adult CPR is indeed morally stronger. In our paper we provide an ethical argument for accepting both family presence during adult CPR and pediatric CPR.
Arguments commonly used by ethicists and medical professionals to justify family presence during resuscitation (FPDR) in the emergency room revolve around scarce evidence of harm to patient outcome, strong evidence demonstrating benefits to relatives, and respect for patient's wishes. However, we argue that these three main reasons all seem to be stronger in the case of adult patients than pediatric ones.
Evidence demonstrating no negative effects of FPDR on patient outcome has mainly been found for adult patients. Furthermore, research showing benefits to relatives from being present is much stronger for adult patients as well. Lastly, the wishes and rights of adults are commonly much more respected compared to those of children, both in healthcare and generally. There is no reason why this should not extend to FPDR as well, given that the majority of patients prefer to go through traumatic life events surrounded by friends and family.
In our conclusion, we mention how family presence during any patient's resuscitation is a huge step from where society was decades ago.

What is the maximum number of characters for a Lotus Notes text field? In Lotus Notes clients, I am encountering a 32K error.

The default max length for a text field is 254 characters. The maximum length allowed for a text field is 15,360 characters.
share|improve this answer
This is an oldie but a goodie. I had to work that one out the hard way using a binary chop approach to isolate the actualy number. Some good advice about getting around it _URL_ and a technote from IBM _URL_ – giulio Jul 4 '13 at 23:54
There is no "default limit" of 254 characters on a text field in Lotus Notes and Domino. Limits that small only come into play in a few cases, like the size of a string written or read from notes.ini, or from an ACL entry.
The answer according to IBM in the Domino Designer 8.5.x help files is that a text field has a limit 32k bytes. However the Notes 8.5.x C API help files state that the maximum size of an item is 64k bytes, however if the summary flag is set the maximum size is 32k. The summary flag is required for text fields that are used in view columns, and Notes forms always assume that the flag is set. You have to use LotusScript or Java or Notes C API code to work with non-summary items.
Two things complicate this: 1) If there are other summary items stored in the document, each summary text item is competing with all other summary items for space in the summary buffer (which is where view data comes from), and that limit is also 32k. And 2) older versions of Lotus Notes and Domino had a 15k limit on the summary buffer, but it is unclear to me whether it is just the Notes and Domino software version, or the on-disk storage (ODS) version of the NSF file that impacts the summary buffer size.
So, the best information is that you can have a computed-for-display text field of up to 64k, and you may be able to have a stored non-summary text field of up to 64k, but if it is an ordinary summary text field the limit is either 15k or 32k depending on the version of software, and maybe also depending on the ODS.
Bear in mind that LMBCS characters may be multi-byte, so a 32k limit does not necessarily imply 32k characters.
share|improve this answer
Depending on what you are trying to do, you can use a Notes rich-text field, which does not have the 32k size restriction. So, you could use this "rich-text" field to store text only - this is essentially accomplishing the setting of the.isSummary attribute to false, but does not require you to add any script code. Rich-text fields cannot be rendered in views.
share|improve this answer
It is a bit more complicated than that - depending on the version you can increase the size of text fields to 32K by setting the.isSummary property of the NotesItem for the field using the Lotusscript QuerySave event, however this will mean you can't display data from the field in views.

Time domain modeling for impulse source localization in urban environments
Monday 1 june, 2015, 12:00 - 12:20
0.7 Lisbon (47)
The localization of acoustic sources with a network of distributed microphones is difficult in urban environments, due to the complex propagation effects such as reflexions and diffractions on buildings. The present study discusses our efforts toward localizing impulse sources using a Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) model. Our model is evaluated against theory and observations in presence of urban-type obstacles. The computational burden is made tractable on the basis of comprehensive physical considerations. Two approaches for localization are introduced. The first approach essentially relies on the time reversal of the microphones measurements with the FDTD model. In the second approach, the source is localized by matching the observed characteristics to a look-up table obtained from time-domain simulations for various source positions. The two approaches are tested and compared with impulse measurements in an urban area, and their respective sensitivities are discussed.

Vice President of Colombia
|This article is part of a series on the
politics and government of
The Vice President of Colombia is the first in the presidential line of succession, becoming the new President of Colombia upon leaves of absence or death, resignation, or removal of the President, as designated by the Colombian Constitution of 1991 which also reinstated the vice president figure after almost a century of being abolished during the presidency of Rafael Núñez. The Vice President cannot assume Presidential functions on temporary absences of the President such as official trips abroad or vacations. In these cases, the President delegates functions to a cabinet member, usually the Minister of the Interior. The current Vice President of Colombia is German Vargas Lleras.
The vice president must be a natural-born citizen of Colombia, at least 30 years of age. The Colombian Constitution of 1991 requires the vice president to meet the same eligibility requirements as the president that can be re-elected. It is also eligible for an unlimited number of terms as vice president.
The Vice President has the same period of functions that the President of Colombia and will replace him in case of temporary or complete absences. The Vice President can also be authorized by the President special missions (like to represent him on international diplomatic visits) or designate him in any position of the Colombian Executive branch of Power.
Every President has defined the Vice President's functions within their government.
According to the Decree 2719 of December 17, 2000 in the Colombian Constitution of 1991 which modified the structure of the Administrative Department of the Presidency of the Republic, the functions of the Vice President are:
- To execute special missions set by the President of Colombia and in accordance with the Colombian Constitution.
- Advise the President on the execution of policies and politics regarding Human Rights and Corruption.
- Collaborate with the Colombian government's management of international and national activities regarding Human Rights and corruption.
- Plan mechanisms to harmonize agreements between the different levels of the executive government in Colombia on issues regarding Human Rights and corruption.
- Represent Colombia internationally as ordered by the President.
- By determination of the President, the Vice President will support and advise the President on other issues.
- Other functions will be addressed according to the needs of the President.

To Jump or Not to Jump?
When riders maintain their body alignment, their cadence, and their balance point, Jumps are beneficial to both muscular endurance and cardiovascular development. Excessive joint stress can be avoided by the consistency and fluidity of the movement and by avoiding overly high cadences or uncontrolled forward momentum when performing the movement.
How to Perform a Proper Jump
A Jump is a flat road movement, which means the guideline parameters are 80–110 RPM with light to moderate resistance. The cadence guideline is helpful with this movement, but not nearly as much as the basic understanding that Jumps contain a mixture of two movements: both a Seated Flat and a Standing Flat.
In hand position two, a rider must maintain proper upper body alignment with the shoulders slightly forward of the hips and the elbows bent toward the pedals as the body moves with a consistent lateral rhythm. The pedal strokes are very fluid and controlled, which is more a result of working with resistance than being pulled by it.
Once each checkpoint is accomplished, the rider transitions by lifting themselves up to a stabilized position over the tip of the saddle. The rider immediately begins to establish balance by continuing with soft elbows, a slight forward tilt, and a "whole body" side-to-side movement. The number of Jumps performed is far less important than the control and rhythm that is practiced during the movement itself.
Jumps are both a fun and unique part of the Spinning program. They enhance cardiovascular development, body awareness and leg strength. No other movement in the Spinning program demands as much body control as Jumps do. That alone, makes them a highly valuable part of any training session.

Masters student uses pedal power to create novel machine
An innovative bicycle-powered water pump, created by a student at the University of Sheffield, has proved a huge success and is now in regular production in Guatemala, transforming the lives of rural residents.
Jon Leary, 24, a MEng student in the University's Department of Mechanical Engineering, took his bicycle machine design from a Steel City drawing board to the heart of Guatemala as part of his dissertation, which required him to 'make something useful out of rubbish.'
During his four month stint in Guatemala, Jon spent time improving the design for his bicibomba movil – a mobile bicycle-powered water pump to be used for irrigation and general water distribution - by working with the Guatemalan NGO Maya Pedal, who design and build a variety of weird and wonderful bicycle machines using abandoned bikes sent over from the US and Canada. Maya Pedal's aim is to produce machines which can improve the daily lives of locals, without them having to resort to expensive electrical or environmentally damaging fossil fuelled machines. Their machines, which are human-powered sustainable energy sources, range from the bicilavadora (bicycle washing machine) to the bicimolino (corn grinder).
Jon created the machine using a normal bike, which is plugged into a frame with an old electrical pump converted to a friction drive attached to the back wheel. The back tyre of the bike makes direct contact with the former armature of the motor, which is covered with rubber from an old tyre to give better grip. The machine was tested to a range of heights and on flat ground the pump can achieve a 40 litres per minute flow rate - equal to about three normal showers. At 26 meters, a flow rate of 5 liters per minute can be achieved.
The bike frame can be built quickly and easily using only basic workshop tools and materials, including a few lengths of angle iron, some flat lengths of metal, bicycle seat posts and seat tubes, and a scrapped standard electric centrifugal water pump.
Prior to Jon's design, Maya Pedal had already produced a popular machine capable of drawing water from up to 30m below the surface, however many farmers lived on steep inclines and wanted to distribute the water once it had been extracted from the well. As a result, unlike Maya Pedal's other static designs, Jon's bike is completely mobile - when a person is done pumping, they can simply flip the frame upside down and it will sit on top of the back wheel like a pannier rack. This mobility enables users to pump from the bottom of the hill to a mid-way tank until full, and then continue pumping from the mid-way tank to the top of the hill. The number of mid-way tanks can be increased indefinitely, effectively making the pumping distance unlimited.
The machine is now in regular production in Guatemala and at least six more models have been made since Jon's departure from the country last summer. Jon has since produced an open source construction manual for the machine, which is freely available on Maya Pedal's web site. The manual was recently sent to Malawi by students from the University of Strathclyde involved in a rural irrigation project aiming to address some of the agricultural problems that the developing nation is facing.
In two months time, Jon will return to Guatemala with a team of three more of the University's recent graduates from the Department of Mechanical Engineering to design, build and test a wind turbine. The turbine will be designed specifically for Maya Pedal and as a result will be constructed from disused bicycle parts and other scrap materials.
Jon said: "When I was asked to design a novel product from waste material for my Master's thesis, I never would have expected that I'd end up welding together bicycle machines in the highlands of Guatemala! Working at Maya Pedal was like being on Scrapheap Challenge - there is a storeroom full of stripped down bicycle parts, a workshop full of tools and the only limit is your own imagination. There was never a dull day, the volunteers came from all around the world to be there and everyone in the local town was so friendly - it's certainly an experience I'll never forget."
Dr Steve Bradbury from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Sheffield, said: "It is gratifying to see that the design expertise that we foster in our students can be utilised in worthy projects such as this. It is a result where everybody wins; Jon, the University and most importantly, the people of Guatamala."

Let $E$ a rank $r\geq 3$ vector bundle over a curve $C$ and let $E'$ a rank $r-1$ subbundle of $E$. Thus we have $\mathbb{P} (E') \subset \mathbb{P} (E)$; what can be said about $ \xi|_{\mathbb{P}(E')}$, where $\xi$ is the tautological class of $\mathbb P (E)$?
If $\xi'$, $F'$ are resp. the tautological class of $\mathbb P (E')$ and the class of a fibre in $\mathbb P (E')$, is it possible to compute the components of $ \xi|_{\mathbb{P}(E')}$ with respetc to $\xi'$, $F'$?

I personally prefer to work with sheaves which ultimately gives you the same thing, but sometimes you need to work in a dual setting. So, I will use sheaves below, feel free to rewrite this for yourself in the language of bundles.
Let $\alpha: \mathscr E_1\to \mathscr E_2$ be a surjective morphism of sheaves and a scheme $X$ and let $\pi_i:\mathbb P(\mathscr E_i)\to X$ be the associated projective bundle for $i=1,2$.
By construction there exist surjective sheaf morphisms $\pi_i^*\mathscr E_i\to \mathscr O_{\mathbb P(\mathscr E_i)}(1)$ on $\mathbb P(\mathscr E_i)$. Pulling back $\alpha$ to $\mathbb P(\mathscr E_2)$ gives a composition of surjective morphisms: $$ \pi_2^*\mathscr E_1\to \pi_2^*\mathscr E_2\to \mathscr O_{\mathbb P(\mathscr E_2)}(1). $$
This induces a natural map $\beta: \mathbb P(\mathscr E_2)\to \mathbb P (\mathscr E_1)$ such that $\beta^* \mathscr O_{\mathbb P(\mathscr E_2)}(1) = \mathscr O_{\mathbb P(\mathscr E_2)}(1)$. I leave it for you to check that $\beta$ is injective (after all you claimed this as a matter-of-fact in the question). The pull-back equality means that the tautological class of $\pi_1$ restricts to the tautological class of $\pi_2$.
In other words, using your notation, $\xi|_{\mathbb P(E')}=\xi'$.

I'm using Visual Studio 2010 with C#. Is there a concept in Windows Forms development of somehow linking a label with is text box? Something so that they move together as a unit? In the ASP.NET world, there is the AssociatedControlId property of the label control. I also think I remember MS Access form designer having some way of associating (or linking) labels with controls. Does this feature even exist in Visual Studio world?
If not, how do you group labels with controls such that if you move a text box you don't have to manually move the label also?

No there is not - at least with the out of the box controls. If you want this you could achieve it with a user control.
In general the winforms is not line driven in the same way as HTML is.

There doesn't appear to be a built in one. You can roll your own Field class though. Below is a complete example.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Drawing;
namespace FieldClassTest
 class Field : FlowLayoutPanel
 public Label label;
 public TextBox text_box;
 public Field(string label_text)
 : base()
 AutoSize = true;
 label = new Label();
 label.Text = label_text;
 label.AutoSize = true;
 label.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Left;
 label.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft;
 text_box = new TextBox();
 static class Program
 static void Main(string[] args)
 var form = new Form();
 var panel = new FlowLayoutPanel();
 panel.FlowDirection = FlowDirection.TopDown;
 panel.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
 var first_name = new Field("First Name");
 var last_name = new Field("Last Name");
Here's what the example program looks like on my system:

I 2nd _USER_ answer of just creating a user control with a textbox in it. The panel can be used to group controls, but it can be pretty tedious if you have a lot of controls on the form.
If you want to support more than just textboxes, WinForms allows you to create your own designer. If you inherit your designer from the ParentControlDesigner class, you can drop any control you want into your custom label control.
share|improve this answer
If you want to group labels with other controls (or group controls in general), then use the System.Windows.Forms.Panel control. The specific purpose of the Panel control is to group collections of controls.
More information Panel Class (System.Windows.Forms)
If you want a higher degree of control (rather than using a Panel), then you could create a UserControl, that encapsulates a Label and a Control.
share|improve this answer
i think the best bet would be to use a GroupBox.
share|improve this answer
You can use extension methods to do it, follow example:
Private associatedLabels As New Dictionary(Of Control, Label)
Public Sub AssociateLabel(ByVal control As Control, ByVal label As Label)
 If (Not associatedLabels.ContainsKey(control)) Then
 associatedLabels.Add(control, label)
 End If
End Sub
Public Function GetAssociatedLabel(ByVal control As Control) As Label
 If (associatedLabels.ContainsKey(control)) Then
 Return associatedLabels(control)
 Throw New Exception("There is no associated label")
 End If
End Function

Advantages & Disadvantages Of Mechanical Keyboard: Explained
Advantages And Disadvantages Of Mechanical Keyboard
Whether it is about their precision-engineered keycaps or their high-end switches, mechanical gaming keyboards have turned the spotlight towards them lately.
The market is witnessing new varieties of space-saving designs from this keyboard niche to take the gaming experience to an elite level.
Some brands even go one step forward to offer durable metal construction coupled with crystal clear uniform backlighting to dominate their presence in the gaming market.
However, amongst all these hypes, intelligent users don't forget to question the real worth of these mechanical keyboards.
The forums are getting flooded with queries on these keyboards durability under tough gaming conditions.
Indeed mechanical keyboards cost way more than standard keyboardsthat put first-time buyers even in more difficult situations while choosing the right one.
So, let's ease this out. Let's have a basic understanding of what these keyboards are, and some pros and cons further to address your concerns.
What is a Mechanical Keyboard?
Mechanical keyboards use physical mechanisms to operate. While membrane keyboards use rubber-domes beneath the keys, mechanical keyboards include spring-attached mechanical switches.
When you press a key, the spring touches the circuit, which signals the circuit to register a keystroke.
Alternatively, in membrane keyboards, you will find a rubber dome beneath the keys.
Since both keyboards consist of the same type of keycaps, you might not recognize the difference with bare eyes.
However, if you use them, you can clearly feel the immaculate difference between them both.
Mechanical keyboards come with varieties, all targeted to the specific use of the user.
Linear Switches
Linear Switche
Keyboard with linear switches simply goes up and down, without generating any clicky noise or feedback.
It allows you to reach faster actuation with smooth keystrokes with each keypress. For gaming, you can go for them.
Tactile Switches
Tactile Switche
Keyboard with tactile switches makes you feel a noticeable bump on your finger when you press a key.
The bumpy feeling helps you get the idea that your device has registered a key. Moreover, it also helps in limiting bottoms out.
For examplewhen you use membrane keys, you have to press more to register a key. Pressing a key too hard makes them bottom out, leading to technical issues.
Since tactile switches register keystrokes faster, such issues never usually occur in mechanical keyboards.
Clicky Switches
Clicky Switche
Such switches offer the same benefits as tactile switches plus offering a unique clicky sound when activated. The click sound is an extra addition to the tactile feedback.
Meaning, you get more response to a keypress, leading to more accuracy in typing and gaming.
Apart from technical differences, you will have other variances in mechanical keyboards like wired/wireless, tenkeyless, detachable wrist rests, and many more.
Advantages of Mechanical Keyboard
1. Better typing and gaming performance
Any professional programmer or gamer will surely prefer mechanical keyboards in terms of speed and precision.
Usually, in a membrane keyboard, you need to reach at least 4mm of actuation point to register a keypress.
However, in mechanical keyboards, the number goes down to less than 2 mm. With such advantages of a mechanical keyboard, you have to apply less pressure to achieve accuracy.
Therefore, once you get familiar with the new mechanism of a mechanical keyboard, you can type twice as fast in the long run.
The actuation force used to register a key in membrane keyboards is usually lower than mechanical keyboards.
However, as we mentioned earlier, the actuation point in the membrane remains twice as higher as mechanical ones.
As a result, in membrane keyboards, you have to apply more pressure to register a key, which messes up the whole ergonomics.
Therefore, people working with rubber dome keyboards often end up with finger fatigue within a small duration.
2. Customizable
Typing style of a person varies from person to person. For examplePeople with big fingers tend to make typing errors compare to people with smaller hands.
However, this rule does not apply to everyone. Therefore, manufacturers of mechanical keyboards allow you to customize your keyboard according to your typing style, hand size, and force you utilize while typing.
i. Scenario 1: Big hands – Many Misclicks
If you have big hands and often make typing mistakes, then you can go for keyboards with activation points higher than 2mm. Actually, the farther you keep the activation point, the more you have to press to activate the key.
Also, make sure the operation force of the keyboard remains 55cN or higher. This works great if you tend to apply more pressure while typing.
In other words, you have to put slightly more pressure to activate a key, which helps you avoid misclicks.
You might be thinkingwhy not go for membrane keyboards as they provide higher actuation points. In reality, a higher activation point alone cannot help you reduce your misclicks, you also need a keyboard that accommodates heavy operating force.
Since membrane keyboards contain rubber domes and lightweight bodies, they simply cannot withstand heavy operating force in the long run.
ii. Scenario 2: Big hands – light typing habit
If you have large hands but type lighter, then you can enhance your typing speed and accuracy by switching to mechanical keyboards with activation points around 1.4 or higher.
Considering your light typing skills, we can assume that you have already learned how to control the strength of your fingers. Therefore, you can restrict the operating force from 55 to 75 cN.
Also, as a light typing, the chance of the key's bottom out remains minimal. You have the natural tendency to identify the bump during keypress and move to the next key. Therefore, you can go for tactile or clicky switches.
iii. Scenario 3: Small to medium size hands – Bottoms out
If you have small to medium-size hands, but still face bottoms out issues, then consider buying speed switches. These switches are great for gaming as well as for typing. These switches come with a short activation point, enabling the device to register keypress faster than ever.
iv. Scenario 4: Heavy smashers
If you love or can't help but put excessive pressure on keyboards, then simply go for mechanical keyboards with an operating force higher than 75cN.
3. Economical In The Long Run
With membrane keyboards, you cannot make such critical customization. However, with mechanical keyboards you can remove your key switches and replace them with other switches in the future.
For exampleif a key of your mechanical keyboard stops working after a few years, then you don't have to throw the whole thing away. You just have to buy a new key, pull the old key, and replace it with the new key. This is also beneficial in cases where you want to upgrade the tactile force and actuation force of your keyboard.
4. Durable
Apart from offering a 50 – 100 keystrokes lifecycle, mechanical keyboards come with a highly durable build and superior technology.
Most mechanical keyboards feature heavy-duty materials like ABS and aircraft-grade anodized aluminum. In addition to that, mechanical keyboards also include advanced dust-proof and spill-resistant features that add a few more years to it.
5. Anti-Ghosting property
The Anti-ghosting technology is among the top advantages of mechanical keyboards you will receive as a programmer/gamer. If you do not know, ghosting refers to the process when your keyboard fails to recognize a few keys when you press them together.
Such circumstances often occur when you type faster. With anti-ghosting, you get more precision with typing, leading to fewer typing errors. Besides, mechanical keyboards offer super durability as they often come with a hard metal, dust-proof and spill-resistant body.
Disadvantages of Mechanical Keyboard
Every product comes with some downside and mechanical keyboards are no exception.
1. A bit loud
If you are using a mechanical keyboard for the first time, then you might feel distracted by the noise. Most mechanical keyboards such as tactile and clicky switches often can be a bit louder than other keyboards. If you cannot bear the noise, you can go for silent models or use O-rings to decrease the sound.
2. Heavy
Any keyboard with a durable body and mechanical key switches will feel heavy on the hands. However, considering its lightning-fast response, you would hardly feel the weight, unless you decide to keep the keyboard on your lap instead.
3. Expensive
Mechanical keyboards are usually expensive when compared to membrane keyboards. Any good quality keyboard with a durable body, RGB lighting, and genuine MX switches will cost you $100 at a minimum. Meanwhile, you will also find some quality mechanical keyboards under $40.
How long do mechanical keyboards last?
A mechanical keyboard lasts around 10 years on average. However, the longevity of a mechanical keyboard completely depends upon your usage rate and maintenance. Generally, a mechanical keyboard comes with a life of around 50-100 million keystrokes, which counts as 10-20 times a regular membrane keyboard.
Several factors come to play while deciding the lifecycle of a mechanical keyboard. However, the major factor behind a long-lasting mechanical keyboard remains its strong key switches. For exampleeach key switch stays independent of each other, unlike the rubber dome from the membrane keyboard.
Most mechanical keyboards are repairable & upgradable, which means, with regular maintenance you can enhance its lifecycle even further.
Is a mechanical keyboard better for programming?
In one word, yes, mechanical keyboards offer the best programming experience you will ever have. Whether it's due to lack of marketing or too much focus on the gaming industry, most people consider mechanical keyboards as a gaming device. However, to bust the myth

Nehushta (Hebrew, NChShThN, "brass object") is the serpent of brass made by Moses and placed on a pole (Numbers 21:8-9) to cure the Israelites of the venomous bites of the fiery serpents in the wilderness. The word Nehushtah "thing of brass" contains a Hebrew pun, the first three letters, NChSh, mean "serpent" and the final two, ThN, mean "dragon."
In Christian interpretation, the lifting up of the brass serpent on a pole is generally held to be a prefigurement of Christ, to cure humanity from the "snakebite" of original sin. By Hebrew gematria there is some basis for this assumption, the numerical value of MShICH, "Messiah" and NChSh "serpent" are identical, 358.
During the first and second centuries CE the serpent was worshipped with reverence by the Christian Gnostic sects of the Ophites and Naasseners. These sects worshipped the Biblical serpent of the Garden of Eden that gave knowledge to Adam and Eve. The serpent was considered the hero because he supplied "gnosis" to the first people which God, considered the demiurge, kept from them.
Some magical theorists claim that Nehushtan, the brass serpent, resides in the upper astral plane possesses redemptive powers while Nachash, the serpent of the Tree of Knowledge, resides in the lower astral and possesses negative powers. A.G.H.
