Use CSV Uploader for Ad-hoc Analysis
You can upload a set of data to your GoodData workspace (project) and analyze it on an ad hoc basis using our CSV Uploader. You can use the CSV ploaderU to quickly analyze your data or to verify data integrity and standard compliance of your CSV files.
CSV Uploader allows you to add data from a file without affecting the rest of the data in your workspace (production data). The data from the file is added as a separate dataset (non-production data) and does not affect the existing datasets. To add data from a CSV file to use in your production environment, see Load CSV Files to a Workspace with the LDM Modeler.
For the following tutorial, download the order_lines.csv sample file. Ensure the downloaded file keeps its *.csv suffix. If you decide to upload your own CSV files, ensure that you read CSV File Requirements. Once the data is added, you can immediately start analyzing it in Analytical Designer (see Create Insights).
To load the data using the CSV Uploader:
 1. Select the workspace/project that you want to use to upload your CSV file.
 The Default dashboard page with your workspace opens.
 2. Click Load in the top navigation bar.
 The Load page opens.
 Depending on your GoodData plan, the page may look differently:
 3. Click Load on the CSV tile.
 The Choose a CSV file pop-up window appears.
 4. Click Browse to select the CSV file, then click Load to start data processing.
 5. On the screen that appears, verify the data, then click Done.
 GoodData will start processing your data.
 When the processing is finished, you will see the confirmation message
 6. Close the green message and click Analyze to open Analytical Designer and begin creating insights.
Access Data from a CSV File
The data from a CSV is added to a separate dataset and do not mix with your prodution data that you added from a data warehouse or using LDM Modeler.
To access the CSV data, simply click the Production data tab under the name of your workpace and click the CSV dataset (Order LInes (2) in this case).

Conclusive Presumption Law and Legal Definition
Conclusive Presumption or absolute presumption or irrebuttable presumption of law refers to presumption which cannot be overcome or changed by any additional evidence or argument. It refers to rules of law and are usually mere fictions. Modern courts repudiate conclusive presumptions when they are not fictions. For example, a child below 7 years of age is incapable of committing a felony.

Non-local response in a lattice gas under a shear drive
Tridib Sadhu 1 Satya N. Majumdar 2 David Mukamel 3
Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, Institute of Physics: Hybrid Open Access, 2014, 47, pp.505005
In equilibrium, the effect of a spatially localised perturbation is typically confined around the perturbed region. Quite contrary to this, in a non-equilibrium stationary state often the entire system is affected. This appears to be a generic feature of non-equilibrium. We study such non-local response in the stationary state of a lattice gas with a shear drive at the boundary which keeps the system out of equilibrium. We show that a perturbation in the form of a localised blockage at the boundary, induces algebraically decaying density and current profile. In two examples, non-interacting particles and particles with simple exclusion, we analytically derive the power-law tail of the profiles.

As family historians venture into cemeteries to look for more clues about their ancestors many wonder what, if anything, the symbols on headstones mean.
While most headstone symbols do have a textbook meaning, many were chosen simply because the person who died requested such a design, or because the person choosing the headstone liked how it looked. They may not have realised their chosen design had meaning. Fashion also played a big part, as did the need to impress. Therefore the true representation of a headstone symbol may never be known.
Nevertheless, it's interesting to know the potential meanings behind various symbols. Here are some examples I've found in the rural cemeteries of Canterbury, New Zealand.

KAS files can be edited usü5 How do I edit my.kas files? How do I edit my.kas files?marekf¨lang=en&display=faq&faqnr=47&catnr=8&prog=1&onlynewfaq=0" TARGET="_self">ELLO - EvilLyrics Lyrics Organizer
If you want to edit your.kas files, you just need to click in a song that you already created/downloaded the timestamps. When you select it, the lyrics will be displayed in the textbox and a new pane for the karaoke editor will appear.
In it, you can edit both the time and the text marks for every line of the lyrics. You can also add and delete stamps. When adding, it will be added after the last selected stamp. When deleting, the last selected stamp will be deleted.
Editing the time stamps
Every second, EvilLyrics can have 5 different timestamps. The first one goes exactly in that second. The second one goes after 200 mileseconds, the third one after 400, etc. In the Karaoke Editor, you can edit the values for the minutes, seconds and mileseconds too. The format is Minutes:Seconds.Milesec. So, if you have an stamp like 03:27.4, it mean it will be played 400 mileseconds after 3 minutes and 27 seconds
Editing the text stamps
The text in the right represents the first two leters in the line. Generally, if your karaoke is not working properly, it has much more to do with the text than with the time. So, what you need is to check if these two letters are the same first two letters for its corresponding time. Note that numbers and the apostrophe aren't allowed, so if you have a line like this: "I'm here for you", the letters that you should type are "Im".
Note that it is case sensitive. This means that there is difference between "Hi" and "HI".

The Basics of Applying for Legal Aid in Victoria
Share This Article
Lady JusticeWritten by Amelia Ramsay, Associate, Doogue + George Defence Lawyers
How am I going to afford a lawyer? Can I get legal aid to help me pay for legal representation? These are usually some of the earliest questions that arise when someone has been charged with a criminal offence and needs to go to Court. Here is some information about what you will need to apply for legal aid in Victoria and some information about eligibility.
The Application Process
When you meet with your lawyer, you will need to ask them about applying for legal aid funding for your matter. What this means is that a lawyer will apply to Victoria Legal Aid on your behalf and ask them to fund part or all of your legal fees.
You will first need to complete an application form. Below is a link to the form. You may wish to complete the form in advance of your meeting with a lawyer or simply familiarise yourself with the questions you will be asked.
Lawyers who are familiar with legal aid in Victoria will generally conduct a preliminary means test with you when you first ask for legal aid. The main factor will be how much money you earn. If you earn over the threshold amount or have any large assets then a lawyer will generally advise that it is not worth making an application. However, there are some factors that will tilt the scales in favour of legal aid funding including whether you have children you support, debts, credit cards and loans. If the money going out is more than the money coming in, your lawyer may advise you to make an application.
Once the form is completed and necessary supporting documentation forwarded to Victoria Legal Aid, they will assess your application and provide a response. It may take a couple of weeks to receive a response depending on how complicated your financial situation is.
There are three main factors that determine your eligibility for legal aid assistance.
 1. Your financial situation using a means test;
 2. What your case is about; and
 3. The benefit you are likely to get from your legal case.
The means test considers:
 - money you get from work, Centrelink benefits or other sources
 - if you own anything of value, like a house or a car
 - your weekly living expenses.
The means test also looks at whether you support anyone else, or if they support you. Importantly, your partner's income and assets are usually included when determining whether you are eligible for assistance.
You will need to provide evidence to support what you tell your lawyer about your financial situation. This might include bank statements, loan documents or a rates notice – both yours and your partner's. If you receive a Centrelink benefit, you will be asked to provide authority for Victoria Legal Aid to contact Centrelink and obtain confirmation of your entitlements. The sooner your gather all this material together and provide it to your lawyer, the sooner your application will be processed. If you are able to provide copies during your first meeting with your lawyer, you are already winning.
To prepare, make a list of the income you receive whether it is from paid employment, rent paid to you or dividends from shares. Then make a list of all your expenditure, bills, loan repayments, credit card debts, your child's care or education or support and what you spend on food.
Secondly, what your case is about will determine whether you are eligible for legal aid funding. This includes whether your charges are summary or indictable; what type of charges – such as violence, dishonesty, sexual offences, homicide or terrorism; which Court you are required to attend; and whether you plan to plead guilty or not guilty.
Thirdly, the benefit you are likely to get from your legal case. Victoria Legal Aid wants to know that their financial assistance is going to make a difference to what happens with your matter. This does not mean you have to guarantee that you will win but there needs to be some sort of benefit. That may be shortening the length of a trial or the difference between a sentence involving imprisonment and a community-based order.
The main factor you need to be concerned with is your financial situation and providing evidence or documentation to support what you put in your application form. Your lawyer and Victoria Legal Aid will work out the rest.
If you are granted financial assistance in your matter, you must remember to report any changes to your income or financial situation during the life of your Court matter. In some cases, this could be for a few years. Similar to a Centrelink allowance, if you start earning more money it is likely that your funding will be reduced and if you fail to report the change, you may be asked to repay money down the track.

Nobody knows for sure exactly why the rocks ring like bells when struck with a hammer is a mystery. The rocks do contain a significant amount of iron, which might be part of the explanation. However, the high iron content doesn't explain two other strange qualities that the rocks possess... Not all of the rocks ring when struck, and they don't ring when they are removed from the site, suggesting that the ringing has something to do with the way the rocks lay against one another. Larger flat ones seem to produce an especially impressive sound when struck.
Compared to the neighbors.
The Ringing Rocks are very small part (160 acres) of a mountainous region called the Boulder Batholith, which encompasses a large portion of southwestern Montana. Batholiths originate when magma cools slowly beneath the surface to form granite.

Prevent image to repeat itself, tiling or get stuck on scroll.
Are your images behaving strangely? Tiling, getting stuck or repeating on scroll?
Prevent image to repeat itself, tiling & get stuck on scroll.
Are you having problems with normal images repeating themselves, tiling, getting stuck and making strange lines all over your website when scrolling up and down? This might be because you have another background image set to repeat!? Follow these steps to prevent image to repeat itself, tiling or get stuck on scroll.
Steps to prevent image from repeat itself, tiling & getting stuck:
- Start by checking if this image problem is occurrin in every browser: Chrome / Safari, Explorer or Firefox. Good to know.
- Validate you code to make sure there are no obvious errors, for example unclosed elements or wrongly nested elements. Validate your website here: _URL_
- Correct all errors (if any) above.
- If you are floating elements or images, use class.clearfix to clear any floats after the element containing floats has ended. Clearfix CSS class might look something like this:
content: " ";
Simply add class.clearfix to any elements containing floats.
- Try to set the background to no-repeat on the element causing problems or the parent of the element causing problems.
- If none of the above works? Are you using several layers of background images on top of eachother? Some fixed, some repeated and so on. Try to remove the backgrounds one by one to see if this fixes the problem, or leads you in the right direction…

Merriam Webster defines curb weight as:
the weight of an automobile with standard equipment and fuel, oil, and coolant
Why is this weight called a vehicle's curb weight?
share|improve this question
This is given in the sense of "parked at the curb" (i.e., with no passengers or luggage, etc.). See curb weight. – Robusto Jan 9 '13 at 16:07
It's a bit like the street value of drugs :) – coleopterist Jan 9 '13 at 16:09
I agree with Robusto. Dry weight, unladen weight and tare weight are used too. – user32480 Jan 9 '13 at 17:05

Definition and etymology
Curb weight (US) or kerb weight (UK) is the weight of a car parked at the kerb with standard equipment, oil, water, coolant, petrol but without passengers or goods. Some definitions say a full tank of petrol, but some just say some petrol. It comes from the idea of a car parked by the kerb and ready to go, but waiting for passengers and extra luggage.
The earliest example in the OED is of the UK spelling in 1958, but Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary (2004) dates the US spelling to 1949 but I found examples in the early 1930s (and possibly in the late 1920s).
This is a snippet of Society of Automotive Engineers Transactions (1929), so the date could be wrong (but it looks ok). It contrasts "Curb weight, sedan" with a heavier "Weight, with driver and observer":
Curb weight, sedan 3300 lb.
Ignoring snippets, the first verifiable examples are from almost identical adverts in the April 1933 editions of Popular Science and Popular Mechanics:
The Pontiac Economy Straight Eight has a wheelbase of 1 1 5 inches; the curb weight (4-door Sedan) is 3265 pounds.Pontiac's 115' wheelbase and 4-door Sedan curb weight of 3265 pounds assure real big car riding comfort.

The California FreshWorks program, a $273M healthy food financing initiative launched by a coalition of public and private partners led by the California Endowment, engaged Pacific Community Ventures, the Sarah Samuels Center, and other researchers to evaluate the health, social, and economic impact of FreshWorks.
Pacific Community Ventures and the research team conducted interviews with FreshWorks investors, key partners, and other stakeholders to document the development and implementation of FreshWorks, identify the types of impact the program was seeking to support, and explore key challenges and opportunities to improve FreshWorks.
Pacific Community Ventures and the research team developed a comprehensive evaluation approach that included a robust set of metrics and processes for assessing FreshWorks' impact that provided insights into the extent to which FreshWorks was providing fresh food access and driving positive social and economic outcomes within underserved communities.
Pacific Community Ventures and the research team published three public reports documenting the impact of the FreshWorks program and its development and implementation. These Include:
- California FreshWorks: A Case Study Examining the Development and Implementation of FreshWorks
- The Social and Economic Impacts of FreshWorks
- California FreshWorks Food Access Report
The FreshWorks team has conducted a statewide market analysis and capital needs study to address the evaluation's recommendations for improving FreshWorks, and to develop a business plan that evolves FreshWorks into a statewide, multi-lender platform for investment in healthy food projects across California.


text: The finite-element method (FEM) was applied to analyze the vibration (inherent and the harmonic frequencies) of wine glasses (glass harp) as a musical instrument. FEM analysis for this problem was proven appropriate by confirming the coincidence between the experimental and analyzed inherent frequencies for several glass cups with different shapes. When using wine glasses as musical instruments, minute arrangement of the pitch is necessary. Even today, this is done by filling a certain quantity of water in the wine glasses. This method, however, is very troublesome because each time, just before a performance, a check has to be made to confirm that the correct water quantity had been filled in every vessel. Compounding the problem, the pitch sometimes changes during the performance because of water evaporation. In place of this water-filling method, minute pitch changes have been achieved by locally shaving a bottom part of each vessel. The pitch is found to decrease in proportion to the shaved glass quantity. The relationship between the shaved glass quantity and the changed pitch has been clarified experimentally and analytically through FEM analysis. With this procedure, the desired pitch can be obtained.

NAD+ for Depression San Jose, CA
Depression impacts millions of people every year. While outside stress can have an impact on those with depression, there are biological factors as well. Cognitive impairments, including brain cell inflammation and neurotransmitter imbalances can be factors in experiencing depression symptoms. At NexGen Health in San Jose, CA, we offer NAD+ IV therapy infusion treatment for depression that can improve symptoms from a cellular level.
NAD+ is the active form of nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide, a coenzyme of niacin, or vitamin B3. NAD+ is required for creating energy in the human cells and for many other cellular functions. When NAD+ levels are low, there is a higher chance of cellular dysfunction. This includes cells in the brain and nervous system. Individuals with low levels of NAD+ are at higher risk for mood disorders, addiction and depression. Restoring NAD+ levels in the body and brain can help improve the performance of neurotransmitters and other cells.
Mood Elevation and Calming Effects
NAD+ IV therapy infusion treatment for depression can impact the function of the brain and nervous system. Improving NAD+ levels can result in higher levels of coenzymes and chemicals in the brain that stimulate happy and calm effects on mood. Neurotransmitters require NAD+ to function correctly, and increased levels can improve cognitive function and focus. NAD+ also helps detoxify the body and removes elements that can impact mental and physical health.
NAD+ IV treatments for depression are very safe and can improve mood and cognitive function from a cellular level. There are no negative side effects from using NAD+ for depression or anxiety, only improved cellular health and overall wellness.
If you are interested in learning more about NAD+ IV therapy infusion treatment for depression, contact us at NexGen Health in San Jose to book your appointment. We can schedule a consultation with one of our medical team to discuss NAD+ IV treatments to determine if this therapy may be right for you.

What makes the Rocky Talkie different from other radios?
The Rocky Talkie is designed for athletes to push their limits in the outdoors. Unlike the fragile plastic belt clips of other radios, our radio easily secures to backpacks and harnesses using an ultra-light carabiner. For extreme terrain, a back-up leash is included to prevent drops. We find that this system is the difference between actively using the radio and keeping it in a backpack for emergencies.
In addition to the convenience offered, the Rocky Talkie includes a shatterproof LED screen (no-glass) and a thermoplastic covering to protect the electronics. The radio is ready to use out of the box and requires zero configuration. The electronics are simple and reliable - we cut out all of the superfluous radio features that kill battery life. The radio has 5 buttons that are easy to understand and still support the critical advanced features (such as privacy codes to prevent outside interference).

Coring Swivel Seal Assembly
High pressure, high speed core drilling swivels present an extreme rotary sealing challenge, with pressure up to 3,000 psi (20.7 MPa) and surface speeds of 298 to 497 ft/minute (1.52 to 2.53 m/s). Conventional "Half-V" chevron-type washpipe packings were unable to survive for more than eight hours in this severe application. When Kalsi Seals were implemented in a washpipe/swivel assembly (below) that was designed and licensed by Kalsi Engineering, Inc., a seal life of over 1,400 hours was achieved in the first field use in 1987. Although several seal and hardware advances have occurred since then, the same hardware configuration is still in use today.
The swivel uses two seals. The upper swivel seal serves as a partition between the high pressure drilling fluid and the clean lubricant, and the lower swivel seal retains the pressurized lubricant. A spring-loaded piston amplifies the lubricant pressure slightly above the drilling fluid, which keeps the upper swivel seal square in the gland. This feature helps to maximize the abrasion resistance of the upper seal.
The swivel seals are mounted in a seal carrier that can move laterally at the time of assembly. The assembly procedure includes a step that causes the seal carrier to align itself on the floating washpipe. This alignment step permits the use of a small extrusion gap clearance, which increases the life of the lower swivel seal by minimizing extrusion damage. Kalsi Seals are also used as hydraulic swivel seals; for information, click here.

Satyendra Rana | Tuesday 11 September 2018
Greentech Knowledge Solutions Private Limited (GKSPL) and Bihar State Pollution Control Board (BSPCB) have jointly conducted several workshops on "Design, construction and operation of a Zigzag Kiln" across different districts of Bihar during 2018-19. During the workshops, we have observed that there are many fundamental misconceptions prevalent among kiln owners and masons regarding construction and operation of a Zigzag kiln. Here we have tried to clear up the most widespread misconceptions in a very clear manner with short explanations.
It must be clear in everybody's mind that "Zigzag kiln" is NOT a completely new design of brick kiln and it is similar in many ways to the traditional "oval shape" Bull's trench brick kiln. Zigzag kiln is just an "improved version" of the traditional kiln. The main difference between oval-shape Bull's trench kiln and Zigzag kiln is the brick-setting pattern and hence, the fuel feeding/firing method. Applying the improved brick-layout design in a Zigzag kiln, air/hot-gases are provided more time to exchange heat with bricks which is the main reason for its better performance compared to a conventional kiln.
Yes, it is RECOMMENDED for a Zigzag kiln to have a rectangular shape to properly employ improved brick-setting pattern and thus to obtain better performance compared to traditional kiln.
Zigzag kiln refers to a kiln in which air/hot-gases does NOT flow "mostly" in a straight line (unlike in traditional oval-shape kiln) along the length of trench. Zigzag kilns can be of two types:
Chimney type is SAME for both natural-draught and high-draught Zigzag kilns. The cross-section of chimney can be either circular or square in both types of Zigzag kilns. For a given daily production capacity and brick-setting design, chimney internal diameter and height changes according to the type of Zigzag kiln.
It is absolutely WRONG to say that a new type of chimney called "Zigzag chimney" is essential to run any Zigzag kiln. If for a given daily production capacity and brick-setting design, the required internal width, height and quality is met by the existing chimney, then the same chimney can be used to operate the Zigzag kiln.
It is NOT necessary for a chimney to have square cross-section to operate any Zigzag kiln. The cross-section of chimney can be either circular or square in both the types of Zigzag kilns.
There is NO demand from state pollution control board to compulsorily install chimney having square cross-section to operate a Zigzag kiln. Both circular and square cross-sectional chimney are permitted to run any Zigzag kiln.
Central or state pollution control board ONLY specifies the "minimum height" of chimney as per the type of Zigzag kiln. If the existing, new or retrofitted chimney is meeting the required minimum height criteria for a given Zigzag kiln type, pollution control board will allow it to operate. According to draft notification published on March 16, 2018 by "Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change", the minimum height requirements for Zigzag kiln are as follows:
Since in an induced-draught or high-draught kiln the required draught is created artificially with the help of fan, ANY type of brick setting viz. single, double or triple Zigzag can be employed satisfactorily.
If the chimney is meeting the "minimum height criteria" set by central or state pollution control board and the chimney's internal width and height is meeting the design criteria for the required daily production capacity, it is NOT compulsory to increase the height of chimney.
Brick-setting design in a Zigzag kiln is NOT VERY different from the setting employed in conventional oval-shape Bull's trench kiln. The basic pattern of stacking bricks in "rows" along the width of trench with each row containing several "brick columns" is same in both traditional and improved kilns. To increase the time required for heat exchange between bricks and hot-gases/air, some rows in Zigzag kilns are made differently (like a wall) to allow air/hot gases to flow past them only through few spaces left in the wall. (For more details, refer Knowledge briefs a). How is setting of bricks done in a natural-draught kiln, b). How is setting of bricks done in an induced-draught Zigzag kiln).
Yes, it is COMPULSORY to install platform and ladder on the chimney as per the criteria set by central/state pollution control board to facilitate the kiln's emission measurements. (For more details, refer Knowledge brief – What are the good practices for the construction of masonry chimney of a Zigzag kiln?).

A major characteristic of Chinese instrumental variations is the use of identification motives called the hetou (refrain head) or hewei (refrain tail) that appear in the beginning and end of each movement. Again, except for these refrain motives, there might be no other relationship between the variations and the refrains or among the variations themselves. Sometimes, a movement appears several times among the other movements in a suite; this is considered a variation technique. Due to Western influence, ABA form has become extremely popular in modern instrumental folk music.
Therefore, the solution is to change the guidelines.

Ceph Grunt Commander units are a variations of Ceph Grunts that appear in Crysis 2.
Ceph Combat Command Units are very similar to the Stalker Commanders. Both have dark, red-colored flesh resembling jelly underneath their armored exoskeletons. The Grunt and Stalker Commanders also have red-colored shields that activate when the player's presence is discovered. Upon death, Ceph Grunt Commanders will drop 300 Nano Catalyst. They also have slightly different helmets, displaying their eyes more as slits rather than a standard grunts more circular eyes.
The main differences between Grunt and Stalker Commanders are that they command different units and wield different weapons. The Grunt Commanders are in control of a squad of Grunts and have a pulse rifle attached to their arm, as opposed to the blade of the Stalker Commanders. Once a battle starts, the Grunt Commander will activate its shield, which emits a red glow. Once enough damage is dealt to the Grunt Commander, its shield will dissipate and the Grunt Commander becomes as vulnerable as the Grunts that serve underneath them.

Question – Describe the causes for the tribal movements occurred during the British period. – 2 August 2021
Tribal movements were carried out on local issues, by local leadership and common people. These movements were mainly violent. These movements were sometimes against the British and sometimes against non-British such as money lenders, forest contractors etc.
Causes of tribal movements
- Forest laws: SuchForest laws were enacted by the British government that prevented tribals from living in protected areas. These forest laws also prohibited the use of products derived from forests. The British government established a forest department in 1864 to control the rich resources of Indian forests. The Government Forest Act, 1865 and the Indian Forest Act, 1868 established complete government monopoly on forest land.
- Land revenue system: The British government introducedstringent land revenue system. In addition to this, the traditions of joint ownership of land of tribals was deeply affected by extension of agriculture in the tribal areas or forest area by non-tribals and increased socio-economic discrimination in the egalitarian structure of tribal society.
- Exploitation: Beggar forced on the tribals by the forest contractors and external people and encroachment in tribal lands.
- Religious reform: Forced religious reform and conversion of tribal communities. The activities of Christian missionaries brought changes in the socio-economic and cultural equations of the tribals, they discouraging people to take up arms against the government. For this reason missionaries were seen as an extension of colonialism.
The area of influence of most tribal movements was limited, but these movements laid the foundation of future national movements.


text: A unified apparent resistivity equation is derived encompassing eight electrode configurations for Straightforward Inversion Scheme (SIS) on Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) data. Suitable parameters are worked out to convert unified equation to a particular configuration viz. Wenner, Pole-Pole, Schlumberger, Pole-Dipole, Radial Dipole, Perpendicular Dipole, Parallel Dipole and Azimuthal Dipole. The derived equation is validated by forward computations of VES data for a 5-layer earth model that compares well with that of VES data obtained using existing individual equations for a particular configuration. SIS scheme is briefly described and a Schlumberger synthetic sounding data is generated using the unified equation over model riddled with equivalence /suppression and subsequently inverted using SIS to show the resolving power of the scheme via-a-vis low resistivity contrast between the layers. Two examples of field Schlumberger soundings from known lithology on a paleochannel in Mario Island in Northern Brazil are also included and the inverted continuous resistivity variation is presented to show the efficacy of the scheme.

2. hearth tax, 1664: surrey
The Hearth Tax returns of the 1660s and 1670s are another important historical source. It was levied twice a year at Lady Day and Michaelmas and was based on taxing each hearth at a rate of 2 shillings a year payable in two instalments. In collaboration with Prof. Margaret Spufford and Dr. Susan Rose of the Hearth Tax Centre at the Roehampton Institute, London we have been attempting to systematically map the Hearth Tax at parish level.
This work is still at an early stage but below we have an example of the location of one hearth households in Surrey on Lady Day, 1664. In this case all the data have been assigned to parishes, largely as a result of work done at the Roehampton Institute. On the map Southwark is unshaded as it was treated differently from the rest of the county, the other unshaded areas have no data as a result of damage to the original manuscript.
Having only one hearth was seen as a sign of relative poverty, this map therefore suggests that the area near London was relatively affluent while the areas further away, particularly in the south west of the county were relatively impoverished.

How to Adjust the Temperature on a Moen Anti-Scald Shower Faucet

You can adjust the temperature on a Moen anti-scald shower faucet.
Image Credit: LOOK Photography/UpperCut Images/GettyImages
Moen is well known for its high-quality, affordable faucets for the kitchen and bath. The company offers a line of anti-scald faucets that allow the user to set and control the temperature of the shower to avoid accidentally turning water to uncomfortably hot temperature.
As the weather changes throughout the year, it may be necessary to change the settings on these anti-scald faucets. Although a hot water heater stays at a stable temperature, the incoming cold water to the house varies in temperature as seasons change, meaning these settings may have to be adjusted for winter and summer usage.
Adjusting Moen Faucet Water Temperature
The Moen Posi-Temp line for showers uses a pressure-balanced system to specifically control the temperature range; their Moentrol line has a similar application but lacks the precise control of the Posi-Temp.
These controls work by using (different) mechanisms to prevent the full opening of the hot water line. This protects the user from accidentally reaching uncomfortable and potentially dangerous hot temperatures in the shower.
Adjusting this mechanism changes the balance of hot and cold water, which adjusts the water temperatures accessible by the Moen anti-scald faucet. It isn't necessarily difficult to adjust this stop, although details vary, depending on the model of faucet in the shower.
Preparing the Faucet
First, purge the line of cold water. Open the Moen faucet handle to the hottest position and allow the water to run until hot. Shut off the water to the faucet using the supply valves; these are usually behind the shower wall.
If these aren't accessible, you may need to shut off water to the entire bathroom. Figure out the most appropriate access point and be sure the water is shut off by opening the faucet to let the line completely drain.
Next, remove the handle from the faucet. Depending on the model, the set screw for the handle may be hidden under a decorative cap; some set screws need a Phillips screwdriver, while others require an Allen wrench. Remove the set screw and pull the handle off the wall.
Adjusting the Set Point
With most models, the cartridge stop ring will be visible. Sometimes there is another screw that you will need to remove with a Phillips screwdriver. Beneath this you should find the limit stop ring, which you can pull out just enough to disengage with the teeth beneath.
To decrease the set temperature (for cooler water), turn the ring or knob counterclockwise. Small increments can make a big change, so turn less than a quarter-turn at first before checking the water temperature.
To increase the set temperature (for warmer water), turn the ring or knob clockwise a small increment. Insert the stop piece back into the sleeve.
Reassembly of the Faucet
Reinstall the outer piece and tighten the set screw. Slide the handle back onto the stem and secure its set screw in place. Turn the water supply back on, run the shower as normal and then test the temperature to make sure the adjustment is sufficient. Repeat steps as necessary until you find the perfect temperature range.
If the shower hasn't been used in a while and you're seeing only hot or only cold water, the entire cartridge may need to be replaced as the inner pieces can get stuck during nonuse. Try to run the shower at least once a week for at least five minutes to prevent this from happening.

Renaming Users
For LDAP databases, the rename feature changes only the user's name, all other fields are left intact. In addition, the user's old name is still preserved so searches against the old name will still find the new entry.
When you rename a user entry, you can only change the user's name. You cannot use the rename feature to move the entry from one organizational unit to another. For example, suppose you have organizational units for Marketing and Accounting and an entry named "Billie Holiday" under the Marketing organizational unit. You can rename the entry from Billie Holiday to Doc Holiday, but you cannot rename the entry such that Billie Holiday under the Marketing organizational unit becomes Billie Holiday under the Accounting organizational unit.
ProcedureTo rename a user entry
 If you are using common name-based DNs, specify the user's full name. If you are using uid-based distinguished names, enter the new uid value that you want to use for the entry.
 3. Click Rename User.
 4. Change the Given Name, Surname, Full Name, or UID fields appropriately to match the new distinguished name for the entry.
 5. You can specify that the Administration Server no longer retains the old full name or uid values when you rename the entry by setting the keepOldValueWhenRenaming parameter to false. You can find this parameter in the following file:

Solar Bottle Bulb in Philippines
Millions of poor homes in Philippines – and a lot more around the world – in the dark because the metal roof block all light and no connection to electricity in informal settlements.
A student of MIT found that one-liter plastic bottle filled with water and bleach and then mounted on a metal roof is a simple way to light homes that have no electrical connectivity or natural lighting. It was called Solar Bottle Bulb.
How to Make, How to Work and Spec of Solar Bottle Bulb
- Fill plastic bottles with water and bleach then capped; bleach works to make the water clear and also to prevent fungus or microbe.
- Make holes in the metal roofs, insert the bottle and then sealed to avoid leaks when it rains.
- Plastic bottles refract sun light and pushed into every corner of the home rather than to highlight one area like an ordinary lamp.
- Simple technology that can be installed in less than an hour, lasting for five years, and equivalent with 60-watt light bulb.
As part of their Solar Bottle Project, Isang Litrong Liwanag (A Liter of Light) organization has installed 10,000 of Solar Bottle Bulb throughout Manila.

If CH isn't true, this means $$2^{\aleph_0}=\aleph_2\:.$$ Does this imply: $$2^{\aleph_1}=\aleph_3$$ or does the CH hold only for $\aleph_0$ and $\aleph_1$? Thanks
share|improve this question
Why should $2^{\aleph_0} = \aleph_2$ if CH fails? – t.b. Sep 5 '12 at 9:18
2 Answers 2

No, CH just says that $2^{\aleph_0}=\aleph_1$, so its failure just says that $2^{\aleph_0}\ne\aleph_1$. We know that $2^{\aleph_0}\ge\aleph_1$, but it's consistent that $2^{\aleph_0}$ be any cardinal $\aleph_\alpha$ such that $\alpha\ge 1$ and $\operatorname{cf}\alpha>\omega$. In particular, $2^{\aleph_0}$ could be $\aleph_n$ for any $n>1$.
If $2^{\aleph_0}=\aleph_2$, $2^{\aleph_1}$ would have to be at least $\aleph_2$, but it could be much bigger. For instance, it's consistent that $2^{\aleph_0}=\aleph_2$ and $2^{\aleph_1}=\aleph_{17}$.
share|improve this answer
The negation of the Continuum Hypothesis does not entail that there is only one infinity strictly between the natural numbers and the real numbers. In fact, given any any infinite cardinal $\kappa$ there is a cardinal $\lambda \geq \kappa$ such that $\text{ZFC} + 2^{\aleph_0} = \lambda$ is consistent (assuming the consistency of ZFC itself, of course).
Even if we assume that $2^{\aleph_0} = \aleph_2$, it could still be that $2^{\aleph_1} = 2^{\aleph_0} = \aleph_2$ -- this happens, for example, under the Proper Forcing Axiom, or more simply under the assumption of Martin's Axiom with $2^{\aleph_0} = \aleph_2$. (The Proper Forcing Axiom is a strengthening of Martin's Axiom -- well, formally a strengthening of $\text{MA} ({\aleph_1})$ -- which fixes the size of the continuum at $\aleph_2$.)
On the other hand, we can have $2^{\aleph_0} = \aleph_2$ and $2^{\aleph_1} > \aleph_3$. Very similar techniques for showing the consistency of $\neg \text{CH}$ can be applied to give the above.
The most general statement in this realm is Easton's Theorem which essentially says that except for certain basic restrictions, the function $\aleph_\alpha \mapsto 2^{\aleph_\kappa}$ can be consistently arbitrary.

In the most of all statistical approaches in pattern recognition theories in remote sensing it is assumed that each probability density function of pattern classes can be approximated by the Gaussian probability density function. However, this assumption is not always appropriate in practice. The exact shape of class probability density function is supposed to be expressed as an original histogram. And if the shape of the histogram is largely different from the Gaussian function the classification results might include large error.
Therefore, there seems no need to persist in Gaussian probability density function as the only representation of class histograms. In other words, if there are other functions which can approximate the original histograms more accurately than the Gaussian function can, we would better to adopt one of those functions as a representation of a pattern class histogram.
From this point of view, a probability density function was expanded by adding another parameter to the Gaussian function so that it can approximate histograms more flexibly and still can include the Gaussian function itself as a special case.
The expanded function used here is a non-symmetric Gaussian function which has two independent standard deviations for each Side of the mode so that it can approximate the anti-symmetricity of class histogram.
In this paper some characteristics of the non-symmetric Gaussian probability density function were studied. Then the fitness to the original histogram was examined by chi-square test and compared with that of the conventional symmetric Gaussian function. The comparison between symmetric and non-symmetric function was accomplished also on the results of a test run.

Yuck! Why Does My Front Load Washer Smell Like Rotten Eggs?
That rotten egg odor is unmistakable when we smell it; it's a scent we recognize no matter where we are. However, it can be a surprise when you have a front load washer smell like rotten eggs. This can be caused by mold and low washing temperatures.
Front Load Washer Smell Like Rotten Eggs? Here's How to Clear the Air.
Is it your clothes? The water? When you have a front load washer smell like rotten eggs it typically stems from bacteria. When comparing a front load vs. top load washer, front-loaders are more prone to moldy build up because the rubber gasket around the door is a favorite bacterial haven.
When your washer smells like eggs we'll show you how to banish the smell with proper cleaning!
Why Your Front Load Washer Smells Like Rotten Eggs
Bacteria grow best in warm, moist environments, making front-loading washers prime bacterial real estate. When bacteria metabolize they create hydrogen sulfide gas, which is the source of the rotten egg smell in a front-loading washer. Here's why a washer can be a bacterial breeding ground:
- Drain/venting problem: the drain from your washing machine may have a venting problem that should be assessed by a professional.
- Low washing temperatures: Habitually washing clothes at a low temperature creates the perfect warm environment for bacterial growth.
- Wrong detergent: using a non-HE detergent in a front-loading machine creates a soap sud buildup that hosts bacteria.
- Keeping the door on your washer closed: leaving the washer door closed preserves the warm, moist environment bacteria need to multiply.
How to Get Rid of Rotten Egg Odor in Front Load Washer
When your washing machine smells bad a proper cleaning and regular monthly cleanings should remove the odor once and for all. We suggest these cleaning tips when you have a front load washer smell like rotten eggs:
- Clean the door gasket of the washer with a cloth dipped in a 1:1 solution of water and vinegar or a 1:10 solution of bleach and water.
- Fill the bleach dispenser of your washer with bleach and run an empty cleaning cycle.
- Bleach alternative: Pour a washing machine cleaner or a ½ cup of baking soda mixed with 2 cups of distilled white vinegar in the tub of the washer and run an empty cleaning cycle.
- Leave the door open overnight and continue to leave the door open when the machine is not in use.
A front load washer smell like rotten eggs can be a thing of the past now that you know the causes and how to prevent them. And if you have a present need for a new washing machine, call Northeast Appliance for the best prices and service!

Listed on the Canadian Register:
Statement of Significance
Description of Historic Place
The former Grand Trunk Railway (GTR) station at St. Mary's Junction expresses the design of the initial GTR stations. It was built in 1858, and its mid 19th century Georgian form, stone walls and distinctive roof brackets still distinguish it from its surroundings today. This single storey station stands isolated in a field beside the track at the early railroad junction north of the town of St. Mary's.
The station at St. Mary's Junction has been designated a heritage railway station because of its historical, architectural and environmental significance.
The former Grand Trunk Railway (GTR) station at St. Mary's Junction was built in 1858 and is one of the largest and most original surviving GTR stations. Designed as a First Class Way Side Station by British architect Francis Thompson, it follows the modest Italianate style typical of contemporary British station design. It was constructed to the north of the town of St. Mary's as a (manual) control point for the junction of rail lines from Toronto to Sarnia and to London. Young Thomas Edison worked here as a controller during the early days of the station. By that time St. Mary's was already an established community, although it subsequently prospered from the nation-wide market the GTR provided for its local limestone.
The heritage value of the St. Mary's Junction Station resides in both its rarity and in the clarity with which it witnesses the design, composition, materials, and setting of original GTR stations. Value resides in its balanced massing and proportions, and in the elements of its design which express the standard early GTR Italianate style, form and detailing.
Source: Heritage Character Statement, former St. Mary's Grand Trunk Railway Station, May 1993. Heritage Assessment Report RSR-143, 1992.
Character-defining elements of the Former Grand Trunk Railway Station include:
- the rectangular footprint and block-like single storey massing of the station under a shallow pitched gable roof,
- its simple symmetrical composition, balanced proportions, and handsome aspect,
- the regular definition of its arcaded apertures,
- its Italianate details: arched openings, deep overhanging eaves, ornate end chimneys, circular gable window vents,
- the integrity of its exterior materials, particularly its local limestone and wood,
- the skilled craftsmanship with which its stonework is executed visible in regular stone courses, stone surrounds, arcades and chimneys,
- its solid wall construction,
- the integrity of its surviving early interior furnishings and fittings, their (primarily wood) materials, early form, composition, craftsmanship and finishes: including but not exclusive to the station's tongue-and-groove wainscot, wooden baseboards and picture rails and plaster walls and ceilings,
- continued legibility of the volumes and functions of specific spaces within the building.

Decorating golf balls is an activity that can be fun for adults and children alike. Whether you're making a gift for the golfer in your life or accenting your home décor, you can use golf balls for original artwork by adding designs with permanent marker or with paint. You can also use red, black, and white paint to enhance your garden with golf ball ladybugs.
Method 1 of 3:
Decorating Golf Balls with Permanent Marker
 1. 1
 Choose a design. There are a lot of designs to choose from. Floral patterns are an easy, fun, and cute pattern to draw if you're new to decorating golf balls. You could also recreate the solar system or make minions and popular characters. You have endless options, so come up with a plan for how you will want your golf balls to look.
 - Some creative ideas include fruit, bugs and animals, holiday themes, and other types of sports balls like soccer and basket balls.[1]
 2. 2
 Gather golf balls and markers. Use quality permanent markers that won't easily rub or wash off and won't fade over time. Choose an array of colors. For color that stands out brightest on turf, look for reds and yellows.[2]
 - Gather a lot of golf balls. As you work, you may want to discard some that you don't like, or you may come up with new designs that you want to try along the way. Try as many different designs and illustrations as you like.
 - Place all materials in a cardboard box or other flat surface where the balls will not roll away.
 3. 3
 Wash the golf balls thoroughly with dish soap. Place them in a sink and scrub them with hot, soapy water to remove dirt or other elements from the surface. Dry them off with a dish towel before drawing on them with permanent marker.[3]
 4. 4
 Draw lines around the golf ball. Set the golf ball on a flat surface and hold the marker steady with the tip touching the ball. Slowly roll the golf ball for a straight line going all the way around the ball. Then move the marker to the next point on the ball where you want to draw another line.[4]
 - Lines can be decorative by themselves or they can be used as stems for flowers in a floral pattern.
 - Use different colors for a specific theme. For example, use red and green for a Christmas themed design or black and yellow to make the golf ball look like a bumblebee.
 5. 5
 Make a floral pattern on the ball. Color in the ridges on the ball with the tip of the marker. You can make a flower pattern by coloring in one ridge with one color, and each of the surrounding ridges with a brighter color.
 - This process also works well for paw prints if you use neutral colors like black and brown.
 6. 6
 Color in the ridges. Color every other ridge for a checkered pattern or color in ridges sparingly for a polka-dot pattern. You can use different colors or all one color depending on how you want your pattern to look. The technique is simple but the finished design will be fun to see. [5]
 - You can create a great piece of home décor by coloring golf balls with simple designs and placing them in a vase or frame.[6]
Method 2 of 3:
Painting Golf Balls
 1. 1
 Choose how you want your golf balls to look. You can use acrylic paint and paint brushes, or spray paint for a more solid look of one color. Depending on the design, you may need to gather a lot of golf balls. It's better to have too many golf balls than not enough as you might want to change your design along the way. Use as many golf balls as you need.
 - Knowing what type of design you want before you start can help you decide if you want spray paint or acrylic paint and what size brushes to use.
 2. 2
 Set up your workspace. Painting golf balls is best when done outdoors due to the mess and fumes. Place empty egg cartons upside down outside on a flat surface. Then place the golf balls on the egg carton to hold them firmly in place while you're working.[7]
 3. 3
 Sandpaper the golf balls. This will remove the gloss on the outer surface of the ball so that the paint will stick better. This will also help remove any dirt and grime.[8]
 4. 4
 Add primer to the golf balls. Keep them on the egg cartons and spray over the golf balls with paint primer spray. This will also ensure that the paint will stick and have a longer lasting hold. Hold away from your face as you spray, and then wait for the balls to dry.[9]
 5. 5
 Paint a solid color with spray paint. You can make a ball one solid color by placing it on the empty egg carton and spraying it with spray paint. Once it is dry, turn it over and spray the other side. If you don't have spray paint, you can also use a large brush to coat the balls with acrylic paint.
 - Once you have a solid-colored golf ball that isn't white, you can continue to create designs with a more colorful background.
 6. 6
 Use stickers and paint to make a clean-cut design. Stickers of stars, letters, flowers, and other shapes will work well for designs, initials or names when you place the sticker on the ball and paint over it with either a brush or spray paint. Allow the paint to dry before you remove stickers.[10]
 7. 7
 Use a fine brush to draw smaller designs. Use the tip of a small brush to paint intricate designs or make a floral pattern by filling in the ridges with different colors. Do this by painting one ridge a dark neutral color and each surrounding ridge a bright color.
Method 3 of 3:
Making Golf Ball Ladybugs
 1. 1
 Set up a workspace where you can paint. Outdoors is usually the best place to work due to the mess and fumes. If you will be working indoors, lay down newspaper and open a window. Lay empty egg cartons on top of the newspaper or flat surface area where you will be painting.
 - The empty egg cartons will be used to hold the golf balls while you work so that they remain steady and you can keep one hand free.[11]
 2. 2
 Sandpaper the surface of each golf ball. This will remove the gloss from the ball and any residual dirt. Golf balls have a layer of gloss on the surface that can keep paint from sticking, so it's important to make sure all the gloss is removed. After sandpapering each ball, brush off any extra sand or dust.
 3. 3
 Spray a paint primer on the balls. This is easiest to do while the balls are sitting on the upside-down egg carton. This will help to give the paint a better hold and will also help the colors look more vibrant. Allow the primer to fully dry before moving on.[12]
 4. 4
 Coat the ball with red paint. Keep the balls on the egg carton while you paint. You can use a large brush, or for an easy and solid coating you can use spray paint. Allow the red paint to fully dry before adding any black. This will prevent the black paint from running into the red paint and making a mess on the ball.[13]
 5. 5
 Paint a large black circle for the head and fill it in with black paint. Continue to draw a line from the top of the head in a semi-circle around the ball. This is the line between the two wings. Continue to use the black paint to fill in ridges on the ball for spots.[14]
 - You don't have to make a lot of black spots. Just a few will look great.
 6. 6
 Paint two small white rings inside the head of the ladybug. These will be the eyes, so put them towards the top half of the head close to the wings. At this point the design is complete, so wait for the ball to dry.[15]
 7. 7
 Add varnish to protect your new ladybug golf balls from rain and weathering. Apply the varnish with a clean brush and allow it to sit. Once the varnish is dry you can start putting them around your garden or in your flower beds.[16]
 - Try to keep them in shaded areas to avoid the color from fading quickly in the sunlight.

I have the following table for storing user data:
TABLE: users
maritalStatus (INT) - FK
gender (CHAR)
occupation (INT) - FK
Now I want to compare two users in this table to see how many columns match for any two given users (say user X & user Y)
I am doing it via mySQL Stored Procedures by getting each value separately and then comparing them
 SELECT maritalStatus from users where userID = X INTO myVar1;
 SELECT maritalStatus from users where userID = Y INTO myVar2;
 IF myVar1 = myVar2 THEN
 END IF;
Is there a shorter way using an SQL query where I can compare two rows in a table and see which columns are different? I dont need to know how much different they actually are, just need to know if they contain the same value. Also I will only be comparing selected columns, not every column in the user table.

This will select the number of columns that are not the same for user x and user y:
SELECT ( u1.martialStatus <> u2.martialStatus )
 + ( u1.gender <> u2.gender )
 + ( u1.occupation <> u2.occupation )
 users u1,
 users u2
WHERE u1.id = x
 AND u2.id = y

Excellect - thank you Peter, this is what I was looking for! – Sydney Boy May 9 '12 at 5:57
You can also use this:
 -- add other columns as needed
= (b.lastname,a.gender) as similar,
 a.lastname as a_lastname,
 a.firstname as a_firstname,
 a.age as a_age,
 'x' as x,
 b.lastname as b_lastname,
 b.firstname as b_firstname,
 b.age as b_age
from person a
cross join person b
where a.id = 1 and b.id = 2

You can count the number of users with the same columns using group by:
select u1.maritalStatus
, u1.gender
, u1.occupation
, count(*)
from users u1
group by
, u1.gender
, u1.occupation

Thanks for your response - however I need a query that specifically compares two given users. Your query simply lists the no. of users with a specific value. I would need to also specify which users I am comparing with a WHERE clause (e.g. WHERE userid = 87 AND userid = 88) - hope thats clear. – Sydney Boy May 8 '12 at 7:06
Well basicly the relevant row would give the value 2 if both users have the same maritalStatus, gender, occupation. You could add a WHERE u1.user_id IN (id1, id2) and see if there's one row with the value 2 returned. – Robin Castlin May 8 '12 at 7:07
_USER_: I think Peter Lang's answer might be what you're looking for? – Andomar May 8 '12 at 7:09
Just a continued example of Peter Langs suggestion in PHP:
$arr_cols = array('martialStatus', 'gender', 'occupation');
$arr_where = array();
$arr_select = array();
foreach($arr_cols as $h) {
 $arr_having[] = "compare_{$h}";
 $arr_select[] = "(u1.{$h}!= u2.{$h}) AS compare_{$h}";
$str_having = implode(' + ', $arr_where);
$str_select = implode(', ', $arr_where);
$query = mysql_query("
SELECT {$str_select}
FROM users AS u1, users AS u2
WHERE u1.userid = {$int_userid_1} AND u2.userid = {$int_userid_2}
HAVING {$str_having} > 0
/* Having case can be removed if you need the row regardless. */
/* Afterwards you check these values: */
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query);
foreach($arr_cols as $h)
 if ($row["compare_{$h}"])
 echo "Found difference in column {$h}!";

I am trying to write a conditional batch insert based on Java Parameters, for example
List params = new ArrayList();
params.add(new Object[]{1, 2, 3});
"INSERT INTO SomeTable( colA, colB, colC)" +
 " VALUES(?,?,?)" +
 " WHERE EXISTS ( // some condition )", params);
This obviously does not work, and the closest example I have found involves selecting the INSERT values from tables, instead of the List arguments, which is what I need. How can I reference the Object[] parameters as part of the INSERT values?
Thank you.

I'd say that you should move this condition in a separate SELECT.
share|improve this answer
Can you provide an example? The problem with SELECT, is that I believe I have to be referencing table values, whereas I just want to reference the parameter java variables. – meiguoren Nov 9 '10 at 4:05
As your example, you should try following syntax and the SimpleJdbcOperations.update method:
 " SELECT srcA, srcB, srcC" +
 " FROM src_table" +
 " WHERE EXISTS ( // some condition )",
Additionally, I've been using StringTemplate for generation of dynamic SQL. It's the best language I ever use.
for Example(As StringTemplate Syntax):
StringTemplate tmpl = new StringTemplate(
 " SELECT *" +
 " FROM some_table" +
 " WHERE 1 = 1" +
 "$search_age:{ AND age =?}$" +
 "$search_name:{ AND name =?}$"
 * if param_age is not null, "AND age =?" would be included in argumented sql,
 * same as param_name
tmpl.setAttribute("age", param_age);
tmpl.setAttribute("name", param_name);
// :~)
String sqlTmpl = tmpl.toString(); // final SQL generated

Create a Recursive Hierarchy Group (Report Builder and SSRS)
Applies To: SQL Server 2016
In Reporting Services paginated reports, a recursive hierarchy group organizes data from a single report dataset that includes multiple hierarchical levels, such as the report-to structure for manager-employee relationships in an organizational hierarchy.
Before you can organize data in a table as a recursive hierarchy group, you must have a single dataset that contains all the hierarchical data, You must have separate fields for the item to group and for the item to group by. For example, a dataset where you want to group employees recursively under their manager might contain a name, an employee name, an employee ID, and a manager ID.
In Design view, add a table, and drag the dataset fields to display. Typically, the field that you want to show as a hierarchy is in the first column.
Right-click anywhere in the table to select it. The Grouping pane displays the details group for the selected table. In the Row Groups pane, right-click Details, and then click Edit Group. The Group Properties dialog box opens.
In Group expressions, click Add. A new row appears in the grid.
In the Group on list, type or select the field to group.
In the Recursive Parent list, enter or select the field to group on.
Run the report. The report displays the recursive hierarchy group, although there is no indent to show the hierarchy
Click the text box that contains the field to which you want to add indent levels to display a hierarchy format. The properties for the text box appear in the Properties pane.
If you do not see the Properties pane, click Properties on the View tab.
In the Properties pane, expand the Padding node, click Left, and from the drop-down list, select .
In the Expression pane, type the following expression:
=CStr(2 + (Level()*10)) + "pt"
The Padding properties all require a string in the format nnyy, where nn is a number and yy is the unit of measure. The example expression builds a string that uses the Level function to increase the size of the padding based on recursion level. For example, a row that has a level of 1 would result in a padding of (2 + (1*10))=12pt, and a row that has a level of 3 would result in a padding of (2 + (3*10))=32pt. For information about the Level function, see Level.
Run the report. The report displays a hierarchical view of the grouped data.

Q.13 You must have seen tarnished copper vessels being cleaned with lemon or tamarind juice. Explain why these sour substances are effective in cleaning the vessels
Copper reacts with moist carbon dioxide in air to form copper carbonate and as a result, copper vessel loses its shiny brown surface forming a green layer of copper carbonate. The citric acid present in the lemon or tamarind neutralises the basis copper carbonate and dissolves the layer. That is why, tarnished copper vessels are cleaned with lemon or tamarind juice to give the surface of the copper vessel its characteristic lustre.


Many tobaccos that Whole Leaf Tobacco sells can be prepared for Shisha/Hookah use with minimal effort.
First off – the difference between the word Shisha and Hookah need not be a mystery. Some websites will tell you that Hookah is the glass pipe, and Shisha is the tobacco that goes inside, but that is incorrect. The difference is the origin of the word. Hookah is the Hindi word for Water Pipe, while Shisha, which means Glass in Persian, is the commonly used phrase in the Arabic world. Use it interchangeably. We won't tell!
Preparing Whole Leaf Tobacco as Shisha for Hookah or Hookah for your Shisha
 1. Remove the mid-rib from your tobacco and shred it.
 2. Wash your tobacco to remove some of the harsh tobacco flavor.
 3. Mix it with honey or molasses and bake on low heat (150 degrees F) for about an hour and a half.
 4. Add glycerin, and liquid extracts to give your Shisha tobacco a nice flavor.
 5. Let sit and soak for at least 24 hours.
Your tobacco is then ready for use in the glass vessel, tube and pipehowever you want to label it!

text: Existing conceptual design methods mainly focus on component modeling and representation, which makes them insufficient to help in the conceptual design stage. Port ontology, as an approach to formally expressing product design, has been effectively applied to concept description of a product. An incidence matrix support for product conceptual design based on port ontology is given in this paper. It formally represents and organizes product information in both functional ontology and physical domain in a hierarchy. Port compatibilities are used to map and link the two components. This makes it possible to build incidence matrix and decompose it into an independence matrix, and allow designers from different backgrounds with various interests to access the design ontology. A multilevel matrix is constructed to generate principle schemes of products at different levels of abstraction, which facilitates design decision-making through the whole conceptual design stage. A case study is also given to demonstrate the proposed approach.

Ottawa, ON, Feb 15, 2012 — One city's relationship with trees is explored in a new museum exhibit in Ottawa.
Six moments in the history of an urban forest is the brainchild of Carleton University history professor Joanna Dean and graduate student Will Knight.
Present-day Ottawa began as rough riverside lumber shanties in the early 1800s. It grew to become the nation's capital, with various trends in tree clearing and tree planting along the way. More recently, the area has faced damage from natural disaster and invasive pests, like the emerald ash borer, which threatens perhaps 30% of Ottawa's existing tree population.
Although the display considers urban forestry from an Ottawa perspective, the challenge of combining trees with cities is universal. Lucy Martin spoke with co-curators, Joanna Dean and Will Knight on opening day at the Bytown Museum, beside the treed slopes of Parliament Hill. Go to full article

The Old Colony Building was designed and constructed between 1893 and 1894 by the architectural firm of Holabird and Roche. As Chicago School architects, they sought to reveal the character of the steel skeletal structure while cladding their buildings with an appropriate surface. The 17-story steel frame building is sheathed in Bedford limestone on the first three floors and by gray brick and terra cotta above that. A two-story colonnade runs along the 15th and 16th floors with a cornice crowning the 17th floor. Oriel windows project from every corner of the building from the third story to the cornice. The design's unity derives from the repetition of Chicago windows along the second floor and in the center bay of the north facade. Variety is found in the contrast between the horizontal stress of the narrow north facade and the distinct vertical thrust of the long east and west facades.
The facade of the Old Colony Building has remained intact, although major alterations to the interior have occurred on the ground floor. The lobby's original surfaces and stairs have all been replaced and the open cages of the elevators have been enclosed.
The Old Colony Building is located at 407 S. Dearborn St. and the lobby and some offices within are open to the public.

When to avoid with-redefs
with-redefs is a handy clojure.core function to use when you want to redefine one or more vars temporarily (within a block) and you want these redefinitions to apply across thread boundaries
An alternative for doing something similar is with-bindings, and that is slightly different in that the new bindings are only seen within the context of the current thread. If for example, you use with-bindings on a var and the value of the var is referenced when doing a _URL_ operation say, then it is possible you won't see the temp binding, since map is lazy and may be executed in a different thread.
Also, with-bindings requires the rebound vars are dynamic.
So… with-redefs is generally a more powerful go-to tool than with-bindings?
No, with-bindings is more generally used on vars that are planned to get rebound, whereas with-redefs is intended when you want to change the way things normally work, for example when you're running a test and decide you don't really want to call an external system, and can use with-redefs to stub.
However, beware that with-redefs is not foolproof. Consider rebinding a function foo
(with-redefs [a.b.c/foo my-temp-fn]
 ... body that calls foo at some point, possibly from another thread)
Will the body here always see your temp binding?
Why not?
Well, interleaved threads is one situation.
Let's say this code is called from two threads and this is the order of events:
Thread A executes the with-redefs
Thread B executes the with-redefs
Thread A executes the body and exits the with-redefs block (thereby restoring the root binding of foo)
Thread B now executes the body and does not see the temp binding!!
The docs for with-redefs say this is handy for tests, which implies that if you want to change a var in non-test code, then alter-var-root (assuming it is done once, on startup) is the way to go.
However, there's nothing to stop you hitting an interleaving problem in tests unless you are running your tests serially and the with-redef wraps the test body. There isn't a with-redefs-visible-only-via-this-block or equivalent.
Use with-redefs cautiously. Remember this blog post when scratching your head about why some code is not seeing a temp binding.

How to Raise a Dishwasher off the Floor
Cabinets and dishwashers use standardized measurements to coordinate the top of the dishwasher with your countertop. Dishwashers that are designed to be built-in are sometimes manufactured 3 1/2 inches shorter than the top of the cabinets -- which is the same height as the cabinet toe-kick. The toe-kick is the wooden base that supports the base cabinets. If you're remodeling, or adding a shorter dishwasher to your kitchen, you need to build a toe-kick similar to the existing toe-kick to raise it off the floor.
Measure the height of the existing toe-kick on the base cabinets. Measure from the floor to the bottom of the lip where the cabinet is cantilevered out at the base. This is where your toes fit under the cabinet when you are working at the countertop. It will likely be 3 or 3 1/2-inches.
Set a table saw fence and rip the 1-by-4-by-96-inch piece of poplar to that measurement.
Measure the width of the dishwasher. Subtract 3 inches and cut two pieces of the poplar at that measurement. Measure the depth of the dishwasher. Subtract 3 inches and cut two pieces of poplar at that measurement.
Tilt a table saw blade to 45 degrees. Using the miter gauge, cut miters on the ends of all four pieces of poplar. Do not lose more than 1/16 inch of the length when mitering.
Smear wood glue on the mitered ends of all four pieces with your fingertip. Place the pieces on their edges. Bring the miters together to create a toe-kick frame. Wrap the frame with a nylon strap clamp and tighten. Shoot four pin nails through each corner of the frame from both directions. Let the glue dry for 1 hour.
Remove the clamp. Place the frame against the wall in the desired location. If there are hoses or pipes, place the frame over them. Place the dishwasher on top of the toe-kick frame. You should have a 3-inch toe-kick reveal at the front of the dishwasher. You should have 1 1/2-inch reveal or lip on each side.
