About Write Filters in Windows Embedded
Updated: January 1, 2013
Applies To: System Center Configuration Manager 2007, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R3, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP1, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP2
For operational reasons, it might be undesirable to write to storage media in Windows Embedded devices. By redirecting all write requests to either a separate disk partition or RAM, a write filter allows the run-time image to maintain the appearance of a writable run-time image without committing the changes to the storage media.
Starting with Feature Pack 2007 for Windows XP Embedded Service Pack 2, the following write filters are available:
File-Based Write Filter, which operates at the file level
Enhanced Write Filter, which operates at the sector level
Enhanced Write Filter and File-Based Write Filter redirect all writes targeted for protected volumes to a RAM or disk cache called an overlay. The overlay stores changes made to the operating system but is removed when the device is restarted, restoring the device to its original state.
Enhanced Write Filter works at the sector level on protected disks and allows you to commit changes so that they persist when the device is restarted. Enhanced Write Filter is useful for thin clients that do not need to store cached information or receive frequent updates. Changes made to a system protected by Enhanced Write Filter are stored in one or more layers that represent snapshots in time. Applying changes to an image applies all changes made to the operating system during a specific period of time.
File-Based Write Filter works at the file level instead of the sector level on protected disks. By default, File-Based Write Filter protects the whole disk, but selective write through exceptions can be granted to specific files and folders. Writes to folders which have been granted exceptions persist when the device restarts.
Windows Embedded also features a registry filter, which monitors all writes to the registry and stores changes in a separate layer that is discarded when the device restarts. For registry writes, the registry filter supports persisting specific registry changes by using registry monitors when the device restarts. This feature is independent from Enhanced Write Filter and File-Based Write Filter and can be used regardless of your specific configuration.

General Software Update Processes with Enhanced Write Filter or File-Based Write Filter
When you use Enhanced Write Filter or File-Based Write Filter protection on the drive for the Windows Embedded device, all uncommitted writes to the device are lost when the device restarts. This includes any software or software updates that have been installed. To persist changes when the device restarts, Enhanced Write Filter or File-Based Write Filter must be turned off prior to performing the change actions, or the changes must otherwise be explicitly committed to the drive using the commit command. This is required regardless of the method used to install software or software updates.
You can take the following steps to persist changes when the device is restarted.
To disable and then enable the write filter
Disable Enhanced Write Filter or File-Based Write Filter. Disabling the filter takes effect after the next device restart. All changes to the system made prior to the device restart are discarded before Enhanced Write Filter is disabled.
Note An alternative to this step is to use the -commitanddisable command for Enhanced Write Filter which will cause all pending write operations to be committed to the storage device before the filter is disabled. This is not recommended because it commits an unknown number of changes to the storage device.
After the device restarts, all new changes are written directly to the storage device. The drive remains unprotected until Enhanced Write Filter or File-Based Write Filter is re-enabled.
The required changes can now be made, such as installing or updating software, and changing system settings.
After the necessary changes to the system have been made, Enhanced Write Filter or File-Based Write Filter can be re-enabled. This causes Enhanced Write Filter or File-Based Write Filter to be enabled after the next device restart. All changes prior to the restart are saved on the storage device.
After restarting the device, the system returns to a protected state.
Note If this procedure fails at any point after disabling the write filter, the system is left in an unprotected state.
To use the commit command to write changes
Restart the device to clear any changes that were made to the protected volume.
Make the required changes to the system, such as installing or updating software, and changing system settings.
Issue the commit command to cause all changes made to the system to be committed to the storage device after next device restart.
After restarting the device, any changes to the system are committed and the system returns in a protected state.
If any items that have been installed require the device to be restarted, a second restart might be required. Any changes caused by this second restart are automatically committed to the storage device.
Although the second method does not completely disable the write filter, both methods write the entire contents of the overlay to disk, regardless of the source of the changes. The second method might also require an additional device restart and commit action to account for installations that have post-restart actions, such as file replacement or drivers or services being installed. With the first method, you can handle any additional restarts as part of your software installation before re-enabling the write filter.
The use of write filters on Windows Embedded imposes unique requirements on system administrators who are tasked with change management. One option for administrators is to use a script to automate the additional actions needed to complete a software or software updates installation. For a sample script that performs these write filter modifications, see Example Script for Configuring Write Filters Using Configuration Manager 2007 on Windows Embedded Devices.
For additional information, see Configuration Manager 2007 Information and Support.

Balokole is an African fundamentalist Christian reform movement that started in the 1930s. The Balokole arose within the East African Revival Movement which sought to renew the Protestant churches in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi. Despite its theological roots in the Western revival movement of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the Balokole evolved as an indigenous African movement. The term Balokole can be translated as "the saved ones" or "the chosen".
The Balokole movement criticized established hierarchies within the Church of Uganda and questioned prevailing amorality or double standards. The Balokole formed egalitarian brotherhoods, followed puritanical rules, publicly confessed their sins and professed their experience of conversion, which they understood as a radical break with their former sinful selves and a receiving of new life from God.[1] They stressed the importance of the Lordship of Christ over all areas of life.[1][2]

Department of Defence seeks industry feedback on draft AIC Enhanced Contractual Framework
by ANZDD on 02-Oct-2020
The Department of Defence is seeking industry feedback on an enhanced Australian Industry Capability (AIC) Contractual Framework.
The Draft AIC Enhanced Contractual Framework and related supporting artefacts are intended to provide specific and measurable AIC commitments that promote greater accountability for achieving the AIC objectives.
Defence has changed the approach for AIC from a 'one-size-fits-all' approach across its acquisition and sustainment contracting templates to a more flexible and scalable approach. This approach enables greater alignment with the unique aspects of each procurement, and is consistent with the view of defence industry as one of the fundamental inputs to capability.
The changes to be introduced by the new framework are directed at:
- better achieving Government's and Defence's requirements for maximising opportunities for Australian industry to participate in each procurement, while also recognising the core role of industry in delivering ADF Capability; and
- strengthening the contractual terms to ensure that these requirements are achieved through revised tendering processes and the inclusion of specific and measurable contractual commitments to enhance accountability.
Under the new framework, the key enhancements are to elevate AIC as a "core" clause with strengthened AIC obligations that contractors must comply with under contracts. To complement these obligations a new AIC remediation regime will be introduced.
The enhanced contractual framework will not be applied retrospectively. Defence will adopt a phased implementation approach across the ASDEFCON template suite from 1 January 2021.
The first package of draft documents (the AIC core package) is now available for consultation and comprises:
- updated Conditions of Tender, Conditions of Contract (and Glossary), and Statement of Work
- new Australian Contract Expenditure Measurement Rules
- extracts from relevant artefacts which describe the enhanced framework
What is the Australian Industry Capability Program?
The Australian Industry Capability (AIC) Program is designed to meet key objectives of the 2016 Defence and Industry Policy Statement (DIPS). In accordance with the DIPS, the AIC Program aims to:
- Provide opportunities for Australian companies to compete on merit for defence work within Australia and overseas.
- Influence foreign prime contractors and original equipment manufacturers, including Australian subsidiaries, to deliver cost-effective support.
- Facilitate transfer of technology and access to appropriate intellectual property rights.
- Encourage investment in Australian industry.
How do I give feedback?
All feedback should be sent to [email protected] using the ASDEFCON AIC Enhancements Feedback Log.

- Step 1: Watch before trying Watch another player attempt to control the crane to judge the power and movement of the claw and which prizes are easiest to grab.
- TIP: Save your money for another day if it appears the prizes are packed in tightly, it's almost impossible to win.
- Step 2: Take your time Take your time in deciding which prize to attempt before putting your money in the machine to avoid panicking as the clock ticks down.
- Step 3: Budget your money Set up a budget to avoid pumping in too much cash for a prize that may not be worth it.
- Step 4: Aim for neck or chest Aim for the neck or chest of the stuffed animal to try to get the claw all the around the prize and don't waste time with legs or arms.
- TIP: Round prizes such as balls must be hit dead center or the claw will cause them to pop out.
- Step 5: Time the payouts Time the payouts as most machines have a microchip that will give out a prize after a certain number of turns so your patience will be rewarded.
- FACT: The crane arm on the International Space Station is 57 feet long and has seven separate joints to help maneuver the large capsules into place.

Knowledge-based system for group technology
International Journal of Production Research
DOI of Published Version
In this paper, a knowledge-based system (KBGT) for solving the group technology problem is presented. The formulation of the group technology problem involves constraints related to machine capacity, material handling system capability, and machine cell dimensions. The KBGT has been developed for an automated manufacturing environment. It takes advantage of the developments in expert systems and optimization. Two basic components of the knowledge-based system, namely the knowledge-based subsystem and the heuristic clustering algorithm are discussed. Each partial solution generated by the clustering algorithm is evaluated for feasibility by the knowledge-based subsystem which modifies search directions of the algorithm. The KBGT is illustrated with a numerical example.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common innate liver tumor. Due to improved surgical techniques, even extended resections are feasible, and more patients can be treated with curative intent. As the liver is the central metabolic organ, preoperative metabolic assessment is crucial for risk stratification. Sarcopenia, obesity and sarcopenic obesity characterize body composition and metabolic status. Here we present the impact of body composition on survival after liver resection in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
Methods: A retrospective database analysis of 70 patients who were assigned for liver resection due to hepatocellular carcinoma was conducted. For assessment of sarcopenia and obesity, skeletal muscle surface area was measured at lumbar vertebra 3 level (L3) in preoperative four-phase contrast enhanced abdominal CT scans, and L3 muscle index and body fat percentage were calculated.
Results: Univariate analysis comparing the survival curves using the score test demonstrated superior postoperative overall survival for sarcopenic (P=0.035) and sarcopenic obese (P=0.048) patients as well as a trend favoring obese (P=0.130) subjects. Whereas multivariate analysis could not identify significant difference in postoperative survival regarding sarcopenia, obesity or sarcopenic obesity. Only large tumor size, multifocal disease and male gender were risk factors for long-term survival.
Conclusions: Sarcopenia, obesity and sarcopenic obesity are indeed no risk factors for poor postoperative survival in this study. Our data do not support the evaluation of sarcopenia, obesity and sarcopenic obesity before liver resection in hepatocellular carcinoma patients.

French women will now need to be 18 years or older to consent to marry, three years older than previously required by law. The French parliament passed the law as a method of preventing forced marriages, reports Ireland Online, and the French standard is now aligned with other states that belong to the European Union.
Ireland Online also reports that the new law marks the first change to the legal age for marriage age since 1804, when Napoleon enacted his Napoleonic Code. For 200 years, women's age of consent has been 15, while men's has been 18. In addition to the marriage age, the law addresses marital rape and abuse. According to BBC, the French parliament is also passing laws to combat child pornography, female genital mutilation, and sex tourism.

The VELOMATIC from Schaeffler is an automatic bicycle gearshift system that is suitable for a range of applications. It replaces the conventional manual gearshift system and allows gear hubs in bicycles, pedelecs, and e-bikes to shift gears automatically. The FAG-VELOMATIC automatic transmission is compatible with a wide variety of commonly-used hub gears. It comprises a gearshift actuator and a coupled communications module. The mechanical motion of the bicycle's gearshift system is carried out by the gearshift actuator via a Bowden cable.
The communication module has the function of an information gateway. This intelligent communication allows interaction with almost any conventional electric drive. Thanks to the compact dimensions of its components, it can be installed inside the frame of the bicycle.
The VELOMATIC continuously calculates the optimum gear for the rider based on the bicycle's speed and the incline of the terrain. The gearshift program can be individually adjusted by the rider using the VELODAPTIC bicycle app. The operating software that is installed records the input variables that are needed for regulating the gearshift actuator and derives from them the necessary controlled variables.
- Sensors for uphill and downhill travel
- The system can be integrated into any pedelec with a CAN bus, as it is not dependent on a specific manufacturer
- Automatically switches to the optimum starting gear when the rider comes to a stop based on the incline of the terrain
- Shifting errors are prevented
- Smooth gearshift with no perceptible transition
- Compact and lightweight design
- Extended range for e-bikes due to battery-saving operation
- Premature wear on the bicycle's chain and gearshift system is prevented
- Continuous calculation of the ideal gearshift point using special algorithms
- E-bikes and pedelecs


what does pheasant taste like
Many people like the idea of eating pheasant because it is seen as a somewhat exotic dish. If you have never eaten it before, are you curious about it? Do you ever think to yourself, what does pheasant taste like?
Pheasant is a type of poultry and is fairly similar in texture and taste to chicken, or turkey. Just like chicken and turkey, it has a combination of both white and dark meat. Pheasant has very little natural fat, so when you cook it, you have to be careful not to let it become too dry, otherwise, it will be bland, tasteless, and tough. But, with the right recipe, if cooked with care, the pheasant can taste absolutely delicious and leave you salivating for more.
Pheasant is best cooked on the bone, with butter and seasonings slipped under the skin, in order to give you a soft, moist and tender dish. Later on in this article, we will look at one or two recipes and methods of cooking pheasant in order to guide you with preparing it in the most delectable way.
If you called up a gourmet foodie and asked, "What does pheasant taste like?" The reply will be that while pheasant may taste similar to chicken, its true flavor is more like game meat, with a smokey flavor. Wild pheasant has a fairly strong, aromatic flavor. It has quite a distinctive taste.
If you have ever cooked turkey, you will know that it takes a long time to cook to perfection. I remember my Mom cooking turkey every year for the holidays. The aroma that wafted through the house as the turkey took its time slow-roasting in the oven made us all walk around with our tongues hanging out, nagging for just a quick taste. But my Mom was adamant, saying "Good food takes time to prepare. When it's ready, the wait will be worth it."
She was so right about that. And when wondering what pheasant tastes like, the same rule of thumb applies to cooking it. Slow roasting on medium heat, with just the right seasonings and sauces, will give you the ultimate melt-in-your-mouth taste of perfectly cooked pheasant.

Is Pheasant Healthy to Eat?
Pheasant is considered by nutritionists to be an extremely healthy source of protein. With our frenetic lifestyles today, many people often tend to choose the easy way out, eating a lot of fast foods, processed meats, rich dairy products, and foods high in trans-fats.
It is no secret that making a habit of eating these foods and following this type of diet is a sure way to cause damage to your arteries. There is more and more emphasis today on the importance of following a healthy diet, and the benefits of living a healthy lifestyle.
If you are wondering what pheasant tastes like, you might also like to know that making it a regular part of your diet has many health benefits. It is very lean, making it low in saturated fats. Unlike certain red meats, pheasant will not clog your arteries with fatty deposits. If you suffer from high cholesterol, you can safely allow pheasant to appear regularly on your table.
What Do Pheasants Eat?
what does pheasant taste like
When trying to answer the question, what does pheasant taste like, it is helpful to look at what pheasants themselves eat? I remember an old favorite television advert, from my childhood, for a certain brand of frozen chicken. The slogan was a simple, but highly memorable one. The reason that they taste so good, is because they eat so well. The same principle would apply to pheasants.
In the wild, pheasants eat fruit, seeds, insects, and even small mammals. Farm-reared pheasants are usually fed a healthy diet of mixed grains, corn, and seeds. They are not fed a fatty diet and are not given any meat to eat. The result is that pheasant is a healthy source of lean protein.
In addition to its protein value, pheasant meat is also rich in vitamins B-6 and B-12. It contains essential minerals such as selenium and potassium and is low in sodium. All-in-all, pheasant is not only an exotic and alluring dish. It is also a healthy and nutritious choice.

Pheasant eggs are full of healthy nutrients. They are very rich in protein and amino acids and contain high levels of vitamins B and D. There are many delicious ways to cook these eggs, either on their own or as valuable ingredients in other dishes.
What is the Best Way to Cook Pheasant?
Before actually cooking your pheasant, it is necessary to clean it very well. If you buy from a reputable butcher, it should have already been hung for a few days to ensure that the meat is soft and tender.
Your butcher should also have made sure that your bird has been plucked clean and does not have any stray feathers. When you unwrap it before cooking, even if it looks clean, it is recommended to wash it well by rinsing thoroughly under cold running water. Remember to rinse the inside cavity well, too. You will also want to dry it carefully, in order to prevent the juices from being too watery when you cook it.
Should You Cook Pheasant in the Oven, or on the Stove Top?
You will achieve the best results from slow-roasting your pheasant in the oven at a medium temperature of about 330-350 degrees Fahrenheit. Any hotter than that and your bird will dry out. If you attempt to cook pheasant on the stovetop, the heat of the flame will be too intense and it will not cook evenly. The outside will be hard and dry, while the inside might be under-done.
How Should You Prepare the Pheasant?
what does pheasant taste like
My favorite recipe is so simple and straightforward, but oh so scrumptious! I honestly believe that a recipe does not have to be complicated and intricate, and long and involved, in order to be good. In fact, it is often the simplest and easiest recipes that yield the best results. An added bonus to this recipe is the fact that you literally only dirty two dishes in your kitchen.
 - 1 whole pheasant
 - 3 cups of water
 - 3 tablespoons coarse salt
 - 1 tablespoon sugar
 - 2 bay leaves
 - 2 tablespoons good quality olive oil or softened butter
 - A little maple syrup
 - A sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper
 - Fresh thyme
 - Cut up carrot sticks
 - 1 whole onion, peeled
First, soak the bird in brine. Make the brine by boiling the water, salt, bay leaves, and sugar. Cover and leave to cool completely. When cool, pour the brine over the bird and place it in the fridge for about 8 hours, or overnight.
Hint: if you like nice, crispy skin, remove the bird from the brine and leave it uncovered in the fridge for another 4-6 hours.
Take the pheasant out of the fridge and, while it reaches room temperature, preheat your oven to at least 400 degrees. Rub the bird well with olive oil or softened butter. Try to slip some under the skin as well. This will give you lovely golden, crispy skin. Sprinkle freshly ground black pepper and drizzle very lightly with maple syrup.
Stuff the cavity with the onion, carrot sticks and fresh thyme. Place in a roasting pan and roast uncovered in the oven on high for only fifteen minutes. Take the dish out of the oven, and turn the temperature down to 330-350 degrees. You can leave the oven door slightly ajar to speed up the cooling process. Put the bird back in the oven and roast slowly, also uncovered, for another 30-45 minutes, or until the juices run clear. Take it out of the oven and let it stand for about 10 minutes before carving and serving.
What Does Pheasant Taste Like When Cooked in a Slow Cooker?
The beauty of the recipe given above is that it is easily adapted to slow-cooking. However, you will need more liquid. Follow all the instructions as above, but before placing in the slow-cooker, brown your bird lightly in a pan with a little hot oil, to give it an appetizing color. Put the pheasant into the slow cooker. You can also add some vegetables, like potatoes and pumpkin or baby marrows. Now you will need some liquid to ensure that it doesn't dry out. Take 3-4 cups of good quality chicken stock. Add a generous splash of sherry. Cover the cooker and allow it to cook on low for about 8-10 hours.
How Do You Carve A Pheasant?
Carving a pheasant is much the same as carving a chicken. The trick is to use a very sharp knife. Place your fork in the centre of the breast and slice downwards in a short quick motion. The meat should come away from the bone. If the breast pieces are very large you can slice them up into smaller pieces. Now cut off the wings, and separate the legs and thighs. Serve with a selection of vegetables to suit your taste.
You are now ready to pour yourself a glass of your favorite wine, and tuck in and enjoy a mouthwatering, healthy meal!

Shear Force
Last updated: February 15, 2019
What Does Shear Force Mean?
Shear force is the force acting on a substance in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the substance, acting in a direction to a planar cross section of a body.
Shear force is the summation of the effect of shear stress over a surface, and often results in shear strain. Bending moment and shear force calculations are essential while designing any structural members.
Shear force is also known as shearing force.
Corrosionpedia Explains Shear Force
Shear force is an internal force in any material which is usually caused by any external force acting perpendicular to the material, or a force which has a component acting tangent to the material. Shearing forces are unaligned forces pushing one part of a body in one direction, and another part of the body in the opposite direction. When the forces are aligned into each other, they are called compression forces.
For example, a force of 10 newtons (N) is exerted at the edge of a beam. This is an external force. Since the beam is a rigid structure, the force is internally transferred all along the beam. This internal force is known as shear force. The shear force between one end and the other is usually plotted on a shear force diagram. Compared to tensile and compressive stress and strain, shear forces act over an area which is in line with the forces.
Using these diagrams, the type and size of a member of a given material can be easily determined. Transverse loading also induces shear forces that cause shear deformation of the material and increase the transverse deflection of the member.

I am running a 5e campaign where my players own a Keep. On the surrounding property there is a pond, about 25 ft in diameter and 15 ft deep. My player's level 14 Cleric wants to turn the pond into Holy Water, he believes that this will give him unlimited holy water.
In the player's handbook it says"A cleric or paladin may create Holy Water by performing a special ritual. The ritual takes 1 hour to perform, uses 25gp worth of powdered silver, and requires the caster to expend a 1st-level spell slot" and Holy Water comes in flasks which suggests that 25gp is used for 1 pint of water.
How long and how much money will it take him to turn the whole pond Holy? Will the pond dilute, as in the already Holy water loosing potency, if it takes him multiple days? What about dilution due to rain?
If you could figure this out for me I would appreciate it
It is impractical to make the pond Holy using the ritual.
Assuming that the pond is perfectly cylindrical, it has a volume of 7,363 cubic feet. Google claims that such a volume is equal to 440,633 pints. All of the flasks listed on PHB 152-3 contain 1 pint, so if we assume that the ritual makes 1 pint of holy water, it would take as many hours to make all of that water Holy according to the PHB ritual.
A cleric of any level can spend at most 16 hours a day doing the rituals, because they have to spend at least 8 hours a day resting in order to get their spell slots back. At that rate, it would take 75 years and about 11 million gp worth of silver to turn the entire pond into holy water.
Unless I've made a serious math mistake somewhere, this order-of-magnitude calculation shows that it doesn't make sense to turn a large body of water into holy water.
However, the cleric does have the Divine Intervention class feature (PHB 59):
It seems to me that making a pond full of holy water would be within the purview of this feature, though it's ultimately up to you as the DM to decide.
There are no rules for potency.
I could not find any rules that dictate whether or not Holy Water retains its powers if diluted. Therefore, it's probably up to you as the DM to determine this.
What's the point?
Currently, in the rules, holy water doesn't have too much importance; it's a somewhat weak attack against fiends and undead, and it's a component of some spells.
I think that it's likely that your cleric player wants to accomplish something specific with the holy water. You should ask him what he wants to do with all that holy water, and then work with him on how he can accomplish that particular goal, instead of getting hung up on specifics like this. I find that focusing on intents and goals, rather than whether particular methods are impractical or not, tends to have better results at the table.

 \$\begingroup\$ It's reasonably possible creating a lake of holy water may well be the end goal in and of itself-- that's sort of a classic mythy thing. \$\endgroup\$ – Please stop being evil Jun 10 '17 at 20:48

 \$\begingroup\$ Also this answer assumes that the ritual produces 1 pint of holy water. While the player's possible assumption that the ritual produces as much holy water as you have water for the ritual is ill founded, the idea that the ritual produces a single pint doesn't really have any support either. Basically, the rules say you can make the stuff, but are largely silent on how much you get and how it works. \$\endgroup\$ – Please stop being evil Jun 10 '17 at 21:09

 \$\begingroup\$ _USER_, I agree that the amount of water produced is not clearly stated. Still, the paragraph describing its creation is in the same section that refers to a "flask," so it's probably closer to a pint than a full pond. Also, I'd argue that it's impractical even if I'm off by an order of magnitude... \$\endgroup\$ – Icyfire Jun 10 '17 at 21:23
 - \$\begingroup\$ _USER_ How big is your flask? \$\endgroup\$ – KorvinStarmast Jun 11 '17 at 1:40

 \$\begingroup\$ _USER_ You don't have to assume. p. 153 of PHB says a flask holds one pint. \$\endgroup\$ – KorvinStarmast Jun 11 '17 at 2:01

This is Theorem of Three Perpendiculars, How to prove variation of it for N dimensional case (or to prove that it is false)?
Let $\mathbb{R}^N$ is N dimensional Euclidean space and $h_1, h_2$ are two intersecting hyperplanes (each has dimension N-1), $\mathbb{S}$ is intersection of hyperplanes $h_1$ and $h_2$. Let $x_1$ is a point at $h_1$, $x_2$ is an orthogonal projection of $x_1$ to the second hyperplane $h_2$, $x_1^p$ is an orthogonal projection of point $x_1$ to $\mathbb{S}$, $x_2^p$ is orthogonal projection of $x_2$ to $\mathbb{S}$.
How to prove that $x_1^p$ is equal $x_2^p$?
share|cite|improve this question
1 Answer 1
Okay, I write solution I have just found.
Hyperplane $h_1$ is $\{x| a_1^Tx +b_1 = 0\}$, for some vector $a_1$ and number $b_1$. Similar $h_2 = \{x| a_1^Tx + b_2 = 0\}$. Intersection set is defined as $\mathbb{S} = \{x|a_1^Tx +b_1 = 0, and\ a_1^Tx + b_2 = 0\}$.
Projection point $x_1^p$ is a solution of next optimization problem: $x_1^p = \arg\max ||x-x_1||^2,\ with\ respect\ to\ x\in\mathbb{S}$.
Similarly, $x_2^p = \arg\max ||x-x_2||^2,\ with\ respect\ to\ x\in\mathbb{S}$.
Because $x_2$ is a projection of $x_1$ in $h_2$, we have $x_2-x_1 = \alpha a_2$, where $\alpha$ is some scalar.
Next step is $||x - x_2||^2 = ||x - x_1 - \alpha a_2|| ^2 = ||x - x_1|| - 2((x - x_1)\cdot \alpha a_2) + ||\alpha a_2||^2 = ||x-x_1|| ^2 + const$, where we used that $x^Ta_2 = b_2$ because of the constraint set.
So, essentially optimization problems are the same, which means that points $x_1^p$ and $x_2^p$ coincide.
Do you like the proof?

Fight Song
In U.S. and Canadian sports, a fight song is a song associated with a team. In both professional and amateur sports, fight songs are a popular way for fans to cheer for their team, and are also laden with history; in singing a fight song, fans feel part of a large, time-honored tradition.[1] Although the term "fight song" is primarily used in the United States, the use of fight songs is commonplace around the world, but they may also be referred to as team anthems, team songs or games songs in other countries, even such as Australia, Mexico and New Zealand. Fight songs differ from stadium anthems, used for similar purposes, in that they are usually written specifically for the purposes of the team, whereas stadium anthems are not.
Hundreds of colleges have fight songs, some of which are over a century old. The oldest collegiate fight song in the United States is Boston College's "For Boston", composed by T.J. Hurley in 1885.[2]
One of the oldest games songs in Australia is Melbourne Grammar's 'Play Together, Dark Blue Twenty', which is sung to the tune of 'The March of the Men of Harlech'.[3][4] It was composed by Ambrose John Wilson who was principal of the school from _PHONE_.[5] This is not to be confused with the school hymn 'Ora et Labora' which is now sung to the tune of 'Jerusalem'.[6]

 3. ^ The Melbourne Grammar games song comprises verses from the school's three main sports at the time, Australian rules football, cricket and rowing. For example the Australian rules verse is:
 'Play together, Dark Blue Twenty,
 Long and little marks in plenty;
 Get your kick, let none prevent ye,
 Make the leather roll.
 Mark your men, keen effort straining,
 On the ball and show your training;
 Still though short the time remaining,
 Get another goal.'
 The chorus between each verse is:
 'None our ranks shall sunder.
 Who will shirk or blunder?
 If all are true
 To our Dark Blue,
 Our foemen must go under.
 Honour ye the old School's story,
 Those who played and won before ye,
 Bear the Dark Blue flag to glory,
 Grammar to the fore.'
 The cricket verse:
 Bat with patience unremitting,
 Yorker, shooter, break outwitting,
 All the loose ones freely hitting,
 That's the game to play.
 Skill the bat and ball in wielding,
 Smartness, judgement in the fielding,
 Iron nerve and pluck unyielding,
 Scarce can lose the day.
 The rowing verse:
 Row the race, boys swing together,
 Sinews tough as cords of leather,
 Strong, yet light upon the feather,
 Lift her, make her go!
 Get the catch at the beginning,
 Churn the tide in eddies spinning,
 Now a spurt, you gain! you're winning!
 Melbourne Grammar, row!
 A fourth verse with its own chorus was added in the early 20th century with imperial connotations:
 'Some, in strife of sterner omen,
 Faced the Empire's stubborn foemen;
 Fought, as erst their sires - her yeomen;
 Won the deathless name.
 Praise ye these who stood for Britain,
 These by foreign marksmen smitten;
 Praise them, for their names are written
 High in storied fame.
 None their ranks could sunder;
 Who could shirk or blunder?
 So stood they true
 To the old Dark Blue,
 And all their foes went under.
 Honour ye the old School's story,
 Heroes who - her sons before ye -
 Died or lived, but fought for glory,
 Honoured evermore.'
 While it is not officially discontinued, this addition is no longer sung.

Using the ArcToolbox window
In any ArcGIS Desktop application, you open the ArcToolbox window with the Show/Hide ArcToolbox Window button found on the standard toolbar or by clicking Geoprocessing > ArcToolbox.
Key features of the ArcToolbox window
You can customize the contents by adding and removing toolboxes
To add any toolbox to the ArcToolbox window, right-click the ArcToolbox entry and click Add Toolbox as illustrated below. Browse to the location containing the toolbox you want to add and select the toolbox.
To remove a toolbox, right-click the toolbox and click Remove. The toolbox will be removed from the window contents but will not be deleted from disk.
The contents of the ArcToolbox window are saved with your document
This is perhaps the most useful feature of the ArcToolbox window. You can customize the contents of the window to contain just those toolboxes you need for your current project. When you save your ArcMap, ArcGlobe, or ArcScene document, the contents of the ArcToolbox window are saved. The next time you open the document, the window will be the same as when you saved the document. See below for more information about saving and loading the contents.
ArcToolbox window displays the toolbox label, not its name
The Catalog window displays the toolbox name. The ArcToolbox window displays the toolbox label. This may take you by surprise if you add a toolbox whose name is different than its label.
The ArcToolbox window contains shortcuts to toolboxes
The toolboxes you see in the ArcToolbox window are references to a toolbox. They are analogous to shortcuts in Windows Explorer or layers within ArcMap. This means that if you remove a toolbox from the window, you're simply removing it from the list and not truly deleting it on disk. However, if you delete one of its tools, the tool is deleted from the toolbox on disk. In this way, toolboxes in the window behave like feature layers in ArcMap—if you remove a feature layer in the ArcMap table of contents, the dataset it refers to is not deleted. However, if you start editing the contents of the layer and delete a feature, the feature is deleted from the dataset on disk. It's the same way with toolboxes in the window—if you delete one of its members (a toolset or tool), it is permanently deleted from the toolbox.
The ArcToolbox shortcut menu
You can add any custom or system toolbox by browsing and selecting the toolbox.
If you want to create a new empty toolbox, click Add Toolbox and browse to the location where you want to create the toolbox. In the Add Toolbox window, click the new toolbox button, as illustrated below.
This opens the geoprocessing Environment Settings window.
Hide Locked Tools
When checked, only those tools for which you have a license will appear in the window. Only tool product level licenses (ArcView, ArcEditor, and ArcInfo) are examined—individual extension licenses are not examined.
Save Settings and Load Settings
Geoprocessing settings are the list of toolboxes found in the ArcToolbox window. You can save these settings for later loading.
Save Settings > To File will save the list of toolboxes and environment settings to an.xml file. You can load these settings by clicking Load Settings > From File and browsing to a saved.xml file.
You can also save settings as the default settings so that the next time you create a new document, the ArcToolbox window will read the default settings. To save your settings to the default settings, click Save Settings > To Default. You can also load the default settings using Load Settings > From Default.
Geoprocessing settings do not include a toolbox's toolsets and tools. Toolbox content is read when you start an application and open the ArcToolbox window.
The contents of the ArcToolbox window in ArcCatalog are the default settings. If you change the contents of the ArcToolbox window in ArcCatalog, the default settings will be overwritten when you exit ArcCatalog.
Toolbox contents in multiple applications
If you have only one application open on your computer, the contents of the Catalog and ArcToolbox windows are kept synchronized; if you remove a tool from a toolbox in the ArcToolbox widow, the Catalog window is immediately updated, showing that the tool was removed. Likewise, if you delete a tool from a toolbox in the catalog tree, the ArcToolbox window is immediately updated.
However, If you have multiple application sessions open, such as an ArcCatalog and an ArcMap session, the contents of a toolbox are not synchronized between the two application sessions. For example, if you delete a tool in one application session, it will still be present in the other application and can still be executed. This occurs because all applications, when they are started, read the contents of all toolboxes and store the contents in memory. As you delete, remove, or add tools, these changes are made in memory and are not written to disk until you exit the application session. This means that you can always use a tool that was present when the session began, even if another application removed it.
The general rule is that if you are altering toolbox content, alter it in one application, then exit and restart other applications to see the changes.


Small Static Caravan Sites | North-Wales | North Wales Caravans
Small static caravan sites in North Wales are often located in areas of outstanding natural beauty within a short distance of the coast. The Countryside Code benefits everyone using the countryside in the UK and North Wales, to enable you to get the most out of your visit. It is in place to give you helpful advice when planning your outing, to keep yourself and others safe and to ensure that the countryside remains a fabulous environment that everyone can enjoy. For example, many holiday makers who visit Sirior Bach Caravan Park near Abergele, make frequent visits out into the beautiful Welsh countryside and there are rules for ramblers, cyclists and dog walkers to follow.
Always consider other people and the local community
 - When out driving in the countryside, consider visitors and local people; don't block driveways and gateways, or pathways with your vehicle.
 - When driving a vehicle or riding a bike, slow down or stop for farm animals, walkers and horses and always ensure you give them room when passing.
 - If a farmer is moving his animals cooperate by keeping out of the way, follow any directions that the farmer gives you.
 - Busy traffic can be a hindrance on country roads to visitors, local people and wildlife so drive slowly and, if at all possible, leave your car at home; maybe cycle or take public transport.
Leave property and gates as you find them
 - If a farmer has left gates open so that his animals can reach food and water, ensure that you leave gates as you find them or look for information on any signs.
 - Always follow pathways unless there is a wider access such as on common ground. Never climb over fences, hedges and walls potentially causing damage; use gaps in boundaries, stiles or gates for access.
 - Never interfere with animals or machinery.
 Protect the natural environment around you
 - Take special care not to remove, destroy or damage any natural features such as trees, plants or rocks, which may be habitat for wildlife.
 - Left-over food and litter can be detrimental and dangerous to wildlife, so ensure that you always take your litter home with you to dispose of. Fires can be dangerous to habitats, wildlife and other people so take care when smoking outdoors and if using naked flames.
Always ensure that you keep your dogs under control at all times. If possible, keep on a lead or in your sight and make sure they don't stray off into an area where you have no right of access. There are certain rules that apply to dogs near to farm animals and, if near the coast, you may need to keep them on a lead so as not to disturb breeding birds. Pick up your dog's mess and dispose of it in a safe manner – in bins provided or take it home with you to dispose of correctly.
You are responsible for your own safety and of those in your care, especially children, so be prepared for any hazards – a sudden change in the weather or an unpredictable horse or farm animal.
The countryside is appealing around small static caravan sites in North Wales; wonderful places where you can get away from it all. So to ensure that everyone has an enjoyable, safe visit make sure you stick to the rules of the countryside code.
If you need any further information about staying safe during your time at such holiday parks as Whitehouse Leisure Park, Sirior Bach Caravan Park, Golden Gate Holiday Centre or any of the small caravan sites in North Wales, please feel free to contact us at North Wales Caravans.

Released January 29, 2021.
Roughly 220 million tons of MSW are landfilled each year, across 1,500 MSW landfills (MSWLFs). One metric for the cost of disposal is the gate rate or tipping fee, i.e. the amount charged per ton for disposal at the landfill. EREF routinely surveys active MSWLFs across the U.S. to estimate the average MSWLF tipping fee nationally, regionally and on a state-by-state basis. The primary goal of the study is to track changes in MSWLF tip fee, and explore the relationship between tip fee and MSW management practices.
Results from this study will provide insight into the following types of questions:
- What is the average MSWLF tipping fee, and how does it vary across the U.S.?
- Are MSWLF tip fees increasing or decreasing each year?
- How does tip fee correlate to other MSW management practices (e.g. WTE, recycling)?

Let's face it, during the construction phase, it can be a messy business, so it's important that the pipeline interior be kept clean throughout the process. This UC2 construction pig was developed for just this purpose. It is primarily used for light cleaning during the construction phase and can be used in all capacities of pipeline cleaning.
At times it's necessary to clean a line more rigorously, which requires additional cups. With this in mind, the UC in available in three versions. The two-cup design of the UC2 pig, provides a basic level of cleaning capability. With each additional cup, the UC pig cleans more rigorously. Therefore, the UC3 three-cup and the UC4 four-cup design pigs are progressively more effective cleaning tools. They are used to lightly clean pipelines, and are typically used for longer distances.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Every Series UC pig is equipped with Series C Cups. As with all the pigs we sell, the Series C cup was specifically developed to perform, efficiently and reliably. To enhance durability, it's made from Reliathane, a special blend of wear-resistant polyurethane.

Neural network-based sensorless direct power control of permanent magnet synchronous motor
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2016
In this paper, a sensorless permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive was presented based on direct power control (DPC) technique. To estimate the rotor's position and speed of PMSM, a drastic sensorless strategy was developed according to artificial neural network (ANN) to reduce the cost of the drive and enhance the reliability. The proposed sensorless scheme was an innovative model reference adaptive system (MRAS) speed observer for DPC control PMSM drives. The suggested MRAS speed observer employed the current model as an adaptive model. The ANN was then designed and trained online by employing a back propagation network (BPN) algorithm. Performance of the proposed strategy was adopted using simulation analysis. The results showed the fast dynamic response, low ripples in motor's currents, power, and electromagnetic torque, as well as good performance in tracking speed and power references.

PigProgress - What to do when tail biting occurs?
What to do when tail biting occurs?
Almost all conventional pig producers will be familiar with tail bitten pigs. It's called a tail biting outbreak when biting leads to multiple victims per pen, or even spreads throughout the barn. Outbreaks are hard to stop – here is how it is possible to overcome an outbreak successfully.
Tail-bitten pigs are often noticed only at an advanced stage, when there is shortening of the tail. At this stage it is likely that most other pigs in the pen have noticed the blood and been attracted to it. That may motivate them to bite and to create new victims.
Ideally, tail biting is noticed at an early stage, before there is blood on the tail and before the tail length is reduced. This can be through either noticing the biter or noticing the victim. When a pig is repeatedly biting tails, the pig can be observed for ten to 15 minutes to see if it continues biting. If this is the case it might be better to remove the potential problem causer.

Tail posture as indicator
Victims can be recognised at an early stage by looking at tail posture. A tail almost permanently tucked between the legs indicates it is being bitten. A briefly tucked tail can, however, be in response to other social interactions such as displacement. A good time to check tail posture is at the feeder. If the feeding is synchronised, it is easy to check all tails together. Even at an individual feeding station, if pigs are constantly seen with tucked tails when feeding, there may be a biting problem in the pen. A tucked tail should be inspected closely; if injuries are present, then it is better to act immediately rather than wait until it gets worse.

What to do?
Action to address tail biting can be through providing distraction to the group or by removing biters or victims when it is more severe. Almost anything can be used to distract pigs, but they easily lose interest. It is therefore more important to change enrichment regularly than to necessarily have the best type of enrichment. However, enrichment should be safe for the animals and not pose risks for food safety.
Good enrichment materials for pigs are chewable, destructible and edible and can be manipulated by multiple pigs at the same time. Loose materials such as straw, hay and sawdust are most used by pigs, but if the housing limits the provision of these, there are other alternatives. Examples are ropes, large feed pellets (beetroot pellets), soft rubber hoses and jute sacks (burlap sacks).
What to do when tail biting occurs?
Using a step-wise protocol
Straw is one of the best materials to occupy pigs. However, for several reasons straw may not be a suitable option or possibility, especially on fully slatted floors. In Ireland about 80% of farms have fully slatted floors. A recent study conducted on a farm in Ireland showed that tail-biting outbreaks can still be effectively reduced using a set protocol. In this protocol three types of intervention were used in a random order:
A. Putting three ropes in a pen of 12-14 pigs
B. Removing the victim
C. Removing the biter.
If after 72 hours blood was detected on one of the pigs in the pen, then the next step was taken. When an option was applied but was not successful, then the next one was applied until all three options had been used. Victims or biters that had been removed were later introduced back in the group as described in the protocol in the box. This resulted in no overt aggression between the pigs when the removed pigs were reintroduced to the original group.
Figure 1 – Step wise plan for overcoming tail biting problems in a pen.
What to do when tail biting occurs?
80% of outbreaks can be solved
The study showed that 80% of severe tail-biting outbreaks could be stopped, even when removed pigs are reintroduced to their original groups. Adding ropes could shorten the duration of an outbreak, since it may take longer to remove and reintroduce pigs. Removing victims or biters was as effective as adding ropes in stopping an outbreak. All pigs were reintroduced to their original groups, which saved the need to have extra space to permanently house removed pigs. Based on the outcomes, the following stepwise plan was recommended (see Figure 1).
Figure 2 – The chance of reducing a tail biting outbreak 'likelihood of success' depends on the number of victims and biters per pen.
The need to respond quickly
The results also showed the importance of responding quickly to the occurrence of tail biting. The chance of successfully reducing a tail-biting outbreak depends on the number of affected pigs in the pen. Figure 2 shows that if more than 50% of the pigs are victims of tail biting, the chance of success in overcoming the outbreak can still be around 60%. But if 33% of pigs are biters, then the chance of stopping the outbreak is only 30%. Thus, the more biters in the pen, the smaller the chance that the outbreak can be stopped.
How to remove and reintroduce pigs from a group?
1. Determine which pig to remove to gain most benefit.
2. Remove the selected pig together with at least one other pig.
3. Write down the pen number from which they are removed and date of removal.
4. Provide a recovery pen without mixing with other unfamiliar pigs.
5. When the pigs have recovered, or at least within seven days, return the pigs together to the original pen.
6. Provide ropes in the pen at the time of reintroduction.
7. Use scent marking spray such as diluted Dettol when pigs are returned.
Have a tail-biting first aid kit
This protocol worked successfully at the farm, which is a conventional farm with fully slatted floors. This does not mean that the protocol will be successful under different conditions. We encourage others to try it but to have other safety measures ready as well. We recommend having a stock of different enrichment objects and products that are directly available whenever an outbreak occurs. Such a 'tail-biting first aid kit' can include ropes, straw, toys, large feed pellets (beetroot pellets), rubber hoses and jute sacks (burlap sacks).

How Much Does Calcium Chloride Cost?
Calcium Chloride is a salt of calcium and chlorine. This chemical compound often includes brine and is used for refrigerating plants; ice and dust control on roads; and desiccation. Calcium chloride is hygroscopic in nature and should be kept in tightly sealed air tight containers.
As a desiccant, calcium chloride is used to absorb moisture mainly on the road since it is thrown on the road which makes it hold the dust down. This chemical compound is often sold in bags in various amounts. This is one of the factors being considered for the price of it. Other factors that affect the price are the types of calcium chloride as it can be used in a number of ways.
How much is it?
- A pallet of calcium chloride can cost anywhere from $550 to $650, while a single bag can run anywhere from $12 to $25. Ice melter that is designed to melt the snow and ice in the winter months can cost $10 to $18 per 5 to 10 pound container.
- Calcium chloride used in the food industry is usually sold in bottle. Food grade calcium chloride is water soluble and is used in food preparation, such as in the process to obtain firmness of certain vegetables. A 500g bottle can cost anywhere between $18 and $24.
- Calcium Chloride is also sold in a pellet form, which is stored in buckets. This product is sold for $30 to $55 per 50 pound bucket. For example, the PELADOW brand sells a 50 pound bucket for $30 to $40. The chloride that commonly comes in pellet form can be a great solution for icy driveways as well as melting snow.
What are the extra costs?
- If you're going to be using the product to thaw or melt ice, you'll need to spread it evenly; this is where a hand held spreader may come in handy. This device can cost anywhere from $14 to $26, depending on the size.
What is going to be included?
- Calcium chloride comes packaged either in a clear container or a bag. Ice melter containers may have a cap that can act as a spreader to make it easier.
How can I save money?
- Calcium chloride is not an everyday household item. Purchase an appropriate amount every time you need it and save any remaining product after use. A good time to get a discount is after the winter season as many retailers are trying to get rid of their overstock.


RabbitMQ is an established, general-purpose message broker. A broker facilitates the exchange of messages between a set of distributed microservices and allows them to communicate efficiently and reliably.
Kubernetes, with its API-centric approach, is an ideal operator to deploy RabbitMQ instances in a cluster. Kubernetes' scaling capabilities and automated container deployment enhance RabbitMQ's dependability in an extended cluster environment.
This tutorial shows you how to install a RabbitMQ instance on Kubernetes.
Guide on how to to deploy RabbitMQ on Kubernetes.
 - Access to a terminal window/ command line
 - A Kubernetes Cluster
 - The Kubernetes kubectl CLI tool
Deploy RabbitMQ on Kubernetes
Installing advanced software solutions on a Kubernetes cluster often involves creating and editing several complex configuration files.
Helm, the Kubernetes application package manager, can streamline the installation process and deploy resources throughout the cluster very quickly. To successfully deploy RabbitMQ, we will have to install the Helm package manager.
Install Helm Package Manager
Use the following command to install the latest version of Helm on your local Kubernetes cluster:
curl -fsSL -o
chmod 700
Once the installation process has been completed, initiate the Helm package manager by typing the following command:
helm init
You can now use Helm to deploy resources throughout a cluster with a few short commands.
Create a Namespace for the RabbitMQ Deployment
All resources in Kubernetes are started in a namespace. Unless one is specified, the system uses the default namespace. To have better control over the deployment process use the following command to create a distinct namespace:
kubectl create namespace rabbit
You can use any DNS compatible name. The namespace we created is named: rabbit.
The system confirms that the namespace rabbit was successfully created.
The system confirms that the namespace has been created successfully.
Install RabbitMQ on Kubernetes
With Helm successfully installed and a designated namespace you are ready to start the RabbitMQ deployment process. Enter the following command to apply a default stable/rabbitmq chart from a git repository:
helm install mu-rabbit stable/rabbitmq --namespace rabbit
The command deploys RabbitMQ on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The deployment is executed in the rabbit namespace created previously.
An overview of the RabbitMQ deployment process.
The terminal provides the information you need to access the RabbitMQ management interface from your browsers such as the credentials, port number, and URL.
Check RabbitMQ Provisioning Status
The containers might take a few moments to deploy. The complete status of the provisioning sequence can confirm if a deployment was successful. To review the details of the deployment, enter the following command:
watch kubectl get deployments,pods,services --namespace rabbit
A shell within the terminal provides the details for the rabbit namespace.
The command deiplays the details and status of the RabbitMQ deployment.
Once you are ready to exit the monitoring shell press Ctrl+C.
Configure RabbitMQ Server
Settings for the RabbitMQ server and its plugins are edited within the RabbitMQ configuration files.
You can use your preferred text editor to access and configure the rabbitmq.conf file. The configuration file syntax uses the sysctl format, and there are several basic principles to adhere to:
 - The system does not execute lines that start with a # character, as it considers them to be a comment
 - You can define only one setting per line
 - The lines use a simple Key = Value structure
The rabbitmq.conf file allows you to define most of the necessary configuration items, such as ports, memory thresholds, disk space, or permissions to connect to the broker.
The RabbitMQ server source repository provides a comprehensive example of a rabbitmq.conf file with detailed comments. It is important to note that this example file represents a general guide and should be adapted to reflect the specific needs of your system.
Note: Versions preceding RabbitMQ 3.7.0 use a different configuration file name, rabbitmq.config.
Setting up RabbitMQ Management Plugin to enable GUI
The RabbitMQ management plugin is already available in the default distribution. Use the rabbitmq-plugins command to enable the service:
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management
Access the RabbitMQ graphical interface by using the IP and port number for the RabbitMQ server. Enter the following web location format in your browser:
The IP and port number were provided during the installation process.
Information about the IP and Port number for the RabbitMQ server.
The service asks for your credentials. To gain access to the UI need to enter your username and password. On new RabbitMQ installations, the default username and password are both predefined as "guest."
RabbitMQ Management tool interface.
You now have access to a user-friendly environment that allows you to manage virtual hosts, queues, permissions, and exchanges.
How RabbitMQ works on Kubernetes?
The very purpose of Kubernetes is to orchestrate services and automate jobs in a highly distributed cluster. A messaging broker like RabbitMQ can enhance the quality of long-running tasks and stabilize vital background processes.
RabbitMQ uses the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) to standardize messaging between Producers, Brokers, and Consumers.
 - A Producer publishes a message to the Exchange.
 - The Exchange formats the message and forwards it to a predefined and selected Queue.
 - A Consumer then retrieves the formatted message and consumes it.
Basic RabbitMQ architecture from Producer to Consumer.
The systematic distribution of messages improves communication between loosely coupled applications and services.
You have successfully installed RabbitMQ on Kubernetes by using the Helm package manager. The services deployed in your cluster are now able to communicate much more efficiently than before.
You have also gained access to the RabbitMQ management plugin. The straightforward user interface helps you manage messaging queues effectively and ultimately reduces the loads and delivery times of your web application servers.

Doll Distance Healing Spell
Because once upon a time Chinese women wouldn't undress before a doctor (even today a visit to a traditional Chinese physician rarely involves undressing), beautiful, anatomically correct naked dolls were carved from ivory. These dolls served as a communications device between doctor and patient; pain, illness, affliction, and methods of healing could be demonstrated on the doll w ith minimum embarrassment.
These dolls are still sometimes found in antique shops; reproductions are also available. Use this type of doll or craft or use a less realistic one to perform magical distance healing.
1. Hold the doll in your hands to charge it with your intentions and healing energy.
2. Murmur healing incantations and blessings over the doll.
3. Massage the doll with blended castor and olive oils, scented with essential oil of lavender.
4. Place the doll within a ring of burning healing candles.
5. Repeat as needed until the healing is complete.


EIXO Program - Audiences with specific needs
EIXO (axis) is the foundation when building a house. This program is, in essence, the column of the Educational Service of the Carlos Machado Museum, a museum that values inclusiveness, of all and for all.
Diversity means different experiences of the world around us. In a Museum, this reality is notorious, since in its physical space, some people might have difficulties, either for physical or mental and cognitive reasons, to enjoy what the Museum has to offer in its fullness.
This project arises to make the museum the most inclusive possible through the Educational Service.
These actions take shape through visits guided by a member of the Educational Service to the various exhibitions that the museum presents, using mediation techniques and objects that meet the needs of the public; workshops that explore the Museum's collections; conversation sessions, debates, encouraging new perspectives on the museum's collections.
Within the scope of the EIXO program, we develop activities according to the needs of our audiences. Therefore, we ask interested entities to contact the Educational Service in order to prepare an appropriate visit to the specificities of each group.

Description of the Friesian Horse population of South Africa and Namibia
AbstractData obtained from the Friesian Horse Studbook of Southern Africa and Friesian Horse Breeders\' Society of South Africa were analyzed to describe and evaluate the population regarding inbreeding and morphological body measurements. Eight different body measurements (height at withers, height of back, height of croup, body length, length of cannon forelimb and hind limb, circumference of cannon bone foreand hind limb) recorded on 232 horses were included for analyses. The pedigrees of 696 horses were used for estimation of inbreeding coefficients. A total of 25% of the horses included in the data was inbred, with inbreeding coefficients ranging from 0.07% to 27.8%. A positive trend in the average inbreeding per year was observed, but the rate of inbreeding was relatively low. Recording of pedigree information will be essential for long-term evaluation of inbreeding in the Friesian Horse and the recording of objective body measurements is recommended for inclusion in selection programs.
Key Words: Body measurements, Linear scoring, Heritability, Inbreeding

(SOLVED) What is the difference between President Obama's net worth and the mean net worth of all members of the Executive Branch?
Type of Paper: Question-Answer
Academic Level: Undergrad. (yrs 3-4)
Paper Format: APA
Obama's Net Worth As of this writing, Barack Obama is President of the United States and he has a net worth of $3, 670, 505. The 17 members of the Executive Branch have a mean net worth of $4, 939, 455 with a standard deviation of $7, 775, 948 (based on data from opensecrets.org). What is the difference between President Obama's net worth and the mean net worth of all members of the Executive Branch? How many standard deviations is that (the difference found in part (a))? Convert President Obama's net worth to a z score. If we consider "usual" amounts of net worth to be those that convert to 2 scores between - 2 and 2, is President Obama's net worth usual or unusual?
Obama = _PHONE_
EB = _PHONE_, sd = _PHONE_
a) The difference is _PHONE_ -_PHONE_ =-_PHONE_
b) as the Sd is _PHONE_, and the difference is _PHONE_,where SD > Difference
so it lies within 1 standard deviation
c) We know the Z score formula is
Z = X- Mean /SD = (_PHONE_ - _PHONE_ )/_PHONE_ = -0.1631
d)as this z value of -0.1631 lies between -2 and 2, hence the value is normal and usual


text: Nepali Rope Incense belongs to the long tradition of family cottage industries in the Himalayas. Almost all young children learn to twist ropes from their grandparents and eventually teach their own children or grandchildren. The ropes are produced in large quantities by farmers and other villagers during the off season. High quality aromatic medicinal herbs are gathered and dried. Herbs used have fumigation qualities and purify the atmosphere when burned. Lokta paper made from the Daphne bush is used to contain the herbs. The herbal blend is placed in the paper and given an artistic twist to create the rope like strands.

In this paper, the limitations of the performance of electroabsorption modulators (EAMs) as optical transceivers in passive picocell systems by using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method are theoretically investigated. EAMs with no bias voltage are modeled by the FDTD method with consideration of the interaction between electromagnetic fields and optical powers in optical waveguides. Transmission and responsivity of EAMs according to various optical input powers and chip lengths are calculated. Then, power margins of the downlink and uplink paths are estimated to define the service ranges of the passive picocell systems. In addition, EAMs with biased voltage are characterized for comparison. The results suggest that the service range of the passive picocell system using a no-biased EAM can be extended up to 20 m with a chip length of 400 μm and an optical input power larger than 10 dBm.
