Is it possible to prevent mouseDown effect when widget already displaying selected effect
Is it possible to prevent the display of a "mouseDown" effect when the widget is already displayed with the "selected" effect?
Reproducible Steps:
 1. User clicks on a button, button displays "mouseDown" effect.
 2. User releases the mouse and the button displays with a "Selected" effect.
 3. User clicks on the selected button.
When the user clicks on an already selected button, I don't want to see the mouseDown effect; I want to continue to see the selected effect.
Is there a way to prevent the mouseDown effect from being displayed when the selected effect is already being displayed?
Hi _USER_
Do you mind elaborating a bit more on which Style Properties you have defined in your Selected style vs. your MouseDown style?
As you've noticed in RP 10, the Style Effects will blend together in the prototype. However, if you do not want the blending to occur, you can simply define the specific style properties on the Selected style, and those properties will override the properties on the MouseDown style.
For example, let's say you have a button with the following styles:
 - Base Style: white background / black font color
 - MouseDown Style: blue font color
 - Selected Style: grey fill color
Let's say when the button is in a selected state and the user mouses down on the button, you do not want to show the MouseDown blue font color.
In order to achieve this, you can simply define the font color that you want to display in that scenario in the Selected style (e.g. black font color). Once a font color is defined within the Selected style, it will no longer be overridden when the user mouses down on the button in the prototype.
The same would apply for other style properties you have defined in your style effects.
Hope this helps!
Hi Frankie
I've attached my file. There is definitely something weird going on as I don't even see the colour for the mouseDown event any more.
When the widget is created from dragging a "Primary Button" onto the canvas, everything works as you described above. However, if you modify the shape of the button, the mouseEvent does not occur as expected.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi _USER_,
Thank you for sharing your file. I was able to reproduce this issue on my end as well. This appears to be a bug with rendering style effects in the prototype for custom shape widgets. I've filed this to have our team investigate further. Thank you for letting us know!

Mabuhay (pronunciation: muhBU-hai ) is a Tagalog greeting. It literally is the imperative form of "live", from the root word buhay (life).
The phrase is comparable in sentiment to the Romance language expression "Vive, Viva", and the Japanese exclamation Banzai. It has carries various meanings including "may you live", "cheers", "welcome", and "hurrah".
This sentiment is being used in the Proclamation of Philippine Independence, they use the sentiment Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!
The expression is mostly used for toasts during gatherings and parties, and is used as a cry of adulation towards individuals or concepts at rallies and political conferences. A more modern appropriation of the greeting is its use in the local hospitality industry to welcome guests. Alternatively, the Spanish ¡Viva! survives in mostly religious contexts, specifically in shouts of praise directed at a patron saint or to the Deity during fiestas and assemblies (e.g., "¡Viva Señor Santo Niño!")

Invented by Ernest H. Wright, liquid smoke is a savory additive that adds a hint of smokiness to foods. Liquid smoke allows nonsmoked foods to have the same flavor as smoke-cured foods, such as ham. Originally produced by collecting the condensed smoke from the top of a stovepipe, you can make your own liquid smoke at home by forcing smoke to condense and then collecting the liquid.
Video of the Day
To condense your own smoke at home, use a smoker or a grill that has a chimney, such as a clay Mexican cooking oven. The type of wood you use will affect the flavor of your smoke, so choose your wood carefully. Frequently used woods include apple, olive, hickory and mesquite. Light charcoal, placing it in the chimney and then cover it with the wood or chips. Soak the chips or wood in water beforehand to ensure a good smoke. Place a Bundt pan on the top of the chimney, and cover it with an upside down metal mixing bowl. Place a bag of ice over the metal bowl. As the smoke rises up the chimney, through the hole in the pan, it will collect in the mixing bowl. The ice cools the mixing bowl, causing condensation to run down the sides of the bowl, into the pan.
Homemade Vs. Store-Bought
Homemade liquid smoke guarantees that there are no chemical additives for color or flavor — manufactured liquid smoke often contains little to no "real" smoke. Homemade liquid smoke also lets you control the flavor of your smoke, as you can choose what type of wood to use. It is also cleaner tasting than store-bought liquid smoke. However, making it yourself is a labor intensive process, and you will often get only a little bit of smoke after several hours.

How to Transfer Apps to New Android from old Android Device
In this article we will learn how to transfer the apps to a new android device from an old android device. The methods will tell how to transfer apps from android in built feature and restore feature. Or maybe using the Samsung smart switch mobile app if you already have it on your device. Therefore, in the instructions we cover the Android pie 9.0, Oreo 8.0, Nougat 7.0 and android devices from all the manufacturers.
Transfer apps to a new android phone using the Android backup and restoring feature
The simplest method to transfer your apps from android to android. It is by backing up your old device, and restoring the function on the new phone. Firstly, you need see if your new device is backing up your data or not, to do so you have to:
 1. Go on to the Settings.
 2. Tap on the System by scrolling down.
 3. Select the Backup option (You might have to expand the Advanced section before that).
 4. Check and see if the toggle of the Back up to Google Drive is on, if you see it is on then you are ready!
 5. If the toggle is off then slide it to make it on and Back up now.
 6. Hence, you are all set after the backup is complete.
Restoring your data to the new phone
Now you are all set to restore the data to your new android phone from the old one through this method. However, if you have not yet restored your data you can now restore it including all the apps during this process.
 1. Make sure to charge your new android device and power it up. Follow the instructions from the screen till it asks you to restore the data from another device. However, you can always opt to start it as a brand-new clean slate, but restoring some data will be helpful for you in the future.
 2. Tap on the Copy Your Data and select the device from which you have to restore the data.
 3. Then your android device will ask you to connect to a Wi-Fi network. Be sure that you connected to the same network as your old device is.
 4. Now you will be seeing the restore option on the screen of your phone. Select either A Back up from an android phone or A Back up from the cloud or drive.
 5. Use your old phone only and sign into your google account.
 6. Here you will see the list of the options to back up including your old device.
 7. Now choose the right one or correct one and tap Restore. So that you can transfer all the data and setting from your old device. Tap on the Apps you wish to transfer from your old device to your new device.
 8. Hence, now you can continue with your setting up process, while your data is restoring in the background.
Use the Samsung Smart Switch mobile App
Therefore, if you have a Samsung S7 or other version, then smart switch app is already in that in your device, for your old device you can download this app from the app store. And then follow the instructions from the screen and download it. You can select this app to transfer your data from any android phone which has android marshmallow 6.0 to a Samsung phone.
Therefore, to get into the app on S7 or later version, tap on Settings > Accounts > Smart switch, for any different phone look in the app drawer for the app.
There are three ways which you can use with Smart Switch: USB cable, Wirelessly, or external storage. The most straightforward method is transferring the apps wirelessly.
 1. Open Smart Switch on your new device.
 2. Choose Wireless > Receive > Android.
 3. Now open Smart Switch on your old phone.
 4. Tap on Wireless > Send.
 5. Follow the screen instructions on your new phone.
From the USB cable
 1. Plug in the USB of your old device.
 2. Now connect that cable to the Samsung USB connector.
 3. Here you will now plug in the Samsung USB connector into your new device.
 4. Open Smart Switch on your old device.
 5. On your old phone adjust the USB settings to Media Device (MTP).
 6. Follow the screen instructions to move the apps.
Using the external storage (SD card)
Insert the SD card or connect your phone to the USB storage device in which you have the apps for restoring. And follow the instructions on the screen.
Samsung also provides the Smart Switch app for Mac. and Windows, installs and opens the desktop app and then connects the phone to the computer. Therefore, now follow the screen instructions to transfer the apps and the data right from the device you want it to.
Some considerations:
For the other apps that are not from Google, you will have to recheck if they are backing up the Google drive. However, it can be helpful especially if you want to save the chat history, usually, the popular apps have this. Your data will only sync properly if you sign in to all your Google devices. If you wish to save the bookmarks and the password then you have to be signed in to all the Google devices. Go on to the browser setting in sign-in from there if you have not signed in already. Therefore, this is how you will share apps from android to android.

Canadians on welfare have significantly higher odds of reporting poor physical and mental health, finds a University of Toronto study.
Statistical analysis of data from the 1996-97 National Population Health Survey revealed that welfare recipients were more likely to report poor or fair health, depression and distress than people not on welfare as well as fewer social supports. The study, published in the March/April issue of the Canadian Journal of Public Health, also found that welfare recipients whose activity was not restricted by long-term disability had greater odds of reporting heart disease than non-welfare recipients.
"These findings indicate that adults on welfare struggle with a broad spectrum of health problems," says the study's senior author, nutritional sciences professor Valerie Tarasuk. "I believe the increasing inadequacy of welfare benefits in many provinces may put them at even greater health risk. The impact of welfare program reforms on the health and well-being of recipients must be assessed and monitored."
The finding that welfare recipients were more likely to report heart disease is of concern because this condition can be prevented or managed, at least in part, by lifestyle modifications, says the study's lead author, U of T medical student Nicholas Vozoris. "Affording special diets, exercise, medications and medical supplies not covered by government programs may be problematic for welfare recipients since many of these healthy lifestyle choices are associated with increased costs," he says.

O-1 Self Petition / Entrepreneur
If an applicant does not have an employer / job offer, they can still apply for an O-1. Instead of self-petitioning, which is not permitted by the USCIS, applicants can create a company that will petition for them in an Employee-Employer Relationship.
The key to "self-petitioning for an O-1", or having a company the beneficiary owns to petition for the beneficiary, is to establish employee-employer relationship.
The Neufeld Memo of 01/08/2010 redefines an employee-employer relationship for U.S. employers. Under this memo, if the beneficiary is "the sole operator, manager, and employee", the beneficiary cannot be fired since he cannot fire himself and has no other entity to do so. If the applicant cannot be fired, then an employee-employer relationship cannot exist.
On the other hand, the beneficiary can still be the "sole stockholder of a corporation" and be employed by the corporation they have majority ownership as long as there are entities that can fire, hire, pay, or otherwise control the beneficiary (i.e. a Board of Directors). To check if such a relationship exists, the beneficiary should consider the following:
- Do you have evidence of other investors (i.e. purchase agreements)?
- Do you have bylaws that list board members' names and responsibilities?
- Do the bylaws specifically state that the board has the right to fire you?
- Do other investors supervise your work on-site?
- Are there performance reviews done for you? What is your level of supervision?
- How is your day-to-day task determined?
Factors that USCIS will consider
When the USCIS receives a "self-petitioning" case, they look at a number of factors to determine if the petitioner (company) has the right to control the beneficiary. None of the following factors are decisive, but will affect the final determination.
- Does the petitioner supervise the beneficiary and is such supervision off-site or on-site?
- If the supervision is off-site, how does the petitioner maintain such supervision, i.e. weekly calls, reporting back to main office routinely, or site visits by the petitioner?
- Does the petitioner have the right to control the work of the beneficiary on a day-to-day basis if such control is required?
- Does the petitioner provide the tools or instrumentalities needed for the beneficiary to perform the duties of employment?
- Does the petitioner hire, pay, and have the ability to fire the beneficiary?
- Does the petitioner evaluate the work-product of the beneficiary, i.e. progress/performance reviews?
- Does the petitioner claim the beneficiary for tax purposes?
- Does the petitioner provide the beneficiary any type of employee benefits?
- Does the beneficiary use proprietary information of the petitioner in order to perform the duties of employment?
- Does the beneficiary produce an end-product that is directly linked to the petitioner's line of business?
- Does the petitioner have the ability to control the manner and means in which the work product of the beneficiary is accomplished?
Establishing Extraordinary Ability as an Entrepreneur
1. Receiving a major, internationally-recognized award (i.e. Nobel Prize)
Funding from outside investors (including venture capital funding and angel investors) qualifies as a major award. The investor must be a reputable source and have a history of selecting quality investments.
2. Fulfilling 3 of the following:
- Memberships that require outstanding achievements as judged by experts: There are many available associations that entrepreneurs can join for this O-1 qualification. Research should be done prior to starting an O-1 so that applicants can fulfill any necessary requirements for membership.
- Receive nationally or internationally recognized prizes/awards: Other sources of funding for the company may be used for this criteria.
- Publications in professional or major media such as newspapers: Any press about the company could qualify as a publication; however, it must be a reputable or professional major media (i.e. Business Today, Fortune).
- Original and major professional contributions: The company's product can be considered an original and major contribution. The impact or significance of this product can be shown through letters and other media.
- Employment in critical role for distinguished organizations: If the applicant founded the company, this criteria is usually easily fulfilled through role description, letters, and other evidence.
- Judged the work of others in field (such as pitch competitions)
- High salary in field (depends on the individual field)
- Author of articles in professional journals or other major media (if applicable)
3. Providing other evidence that shows that applicant is the top in their field
In addition to the regular O-1 process of packaging your entire case file from start to finish and training you for the mock interview, we provide additional services for clients who have not created or is in the process of creating a business for the purpose of an O-1.
We will help you create a business tailored to the factors that the USCIS will examine. This includes creating and/or examining your bylaws, articles of incorporation, minutes of the board of directors, articles of association, business hierarchy charts, and other relevant materials.


Setting up a Razor environment
Razor relies on a PXE environment to boot the Razor microkernel. You must set up your PXE environment before you can successfully provision with Razor.
There are two ways to enable PXE boot:
 - (Recommended) Integrate Razor with the DHCP solution of the system being provisioned.
 - Rely on UEFI to directly load the.ipxe file that's required to boot the Razor microkernel.
Because it's difficult to guarantee that all of your hardware is UEFI-enabled, configuring DHCP is the preferred method for setting up a Razor environment.
Set up a Razor environment
Set up a PXE environment using the DHCP and TFTP service of your choice.
Before you begin
You must have Puppet Enterprise installed.
This workflow describes a sample setup using dnsmasq. Dnsmasq is not intended for production environments; however, you can use a similar workflow to set up DHCP and TFTP with more robust solutions.
Install and configure dnsmasq DHCP-TFTP service
Install dnsmasq to manage communication between nodes and the Razor server. When a node boots, dnsmasq forwards the booted node to the Razor service.
 1. Use YUM to install dnsmasq: yum install dnsmasq
 2. If it doesn't already exist, create the directory /var/lib/tftpboot.
 3. Change the permissions for the TFTP boot directory: chmod 655 /var/lib/tftpboot.
Temporarily disable SELinux
You must temporarily disable SELinux in order to enable PXE boot. Alternatively, you could craft an enforcement rule for SELinux that enables PXE boot but doesn't completely disable SELinux.
 1. In the file /etc/sysconfig/selinux, set SELINUX=disabled.
 2. Restart the computer.
Edit dnsmasq.conf to enable DHCP
You must specify a DHCP range to enable communication with your DHCP server.
Tip: For more complex setups, it might be helpful to indicate a range name, for example: dhcp-range=range1,,,24h dhcp-range=range2,,,48h.
Edit /etc/dnsmasq.confto specify a DHCP range.
For example, for an IP range from - with a 24-hour lease, your file resembles:
# Uncomment this to enable the integrated DHCP server, you need
# to supply the range of addresses available for lease and optionally
# a lease time. If you have more than one network, you must
# service.
Edit the dnsmasq configuration file to enable PXE boot
Use dnsmasq to enable PXE booting on nodes.
 1. At the bottom of the /etc/dnsmasq.conf file, add: conf-dir=/etc/dnsmasq.d
 2. Write and exit the file.
 3. Create the file /etc/dnsmasq.d/razor and add configuration information.
 For example, for dnsmasq 2.45:
 # iPXE sets option 175, mark it for network IPXEBOOT
 # TFTP setup
 4. Enable dnsmasq on boot: chkconfig dnsmasq on
 5. Start the dnsmasq service: service dnsmasq start

Covelo fire burned 617 acres
Full containment of the Pass Fire located east of Covelo, stubbornly eluded CalFire and the US Forest Service firefighters over the weekend.
Monday afternoon, the 617-acre fire was 97 percent contained. Cost as of 10:30 a.m. Monday was $2.6 million, but fire personnel had been reduced to 277 persons from a peak of 921.
When the fire began August 3at noon, it was attacked heavily from the air, as ground resources surged to the location. Initially, the fire threatened several structures near the Eel River Work Center, but then burned north and east, leaving the structures unharmed. Steep hills in the fire zone were covered with a combination of dry grass and oaks on the western slopes and grass and heavy manzanita on the eastern sides.
Containment was particularly challenging in the area located in the steep canyon slopes above the Eel River.
Fire engines from Little Lake, Ukiah Valley, Redwood Valley, Brooktrails and Laytonville fire departments responded to the mutual-aid call just after the fire started, and remained on the fire lines until Friday afternoon. Local firefighters slept on the ground and ate field rations for much of their time out.
In the early stage, the fire size was estimated at 800 acres, but as overflights mapped the fire boundaries more accurately, the official size was scaled back to 644 acres and finally to 617 acres.
Although the fire began in the state responsibility area, it quickly crossed into lands managed by the US Bureau of Land Management and Mendocino National Forest. The fire response was co-managed by CalFire and the U.S. Forest Service.
One firefighter suffered a wrist injury during the fire.


Wrong number of arguments (Error 450)
The number of arguments to a procedure must match the number of parameters in the procedure's definition. This error has the following causes and solutions:
 - The number of arguments in the call to the procedure wasn't the same as the number of required arguments expected by the procedure.
 Check the argument list in the call against the procedure declaration or definition.
 - You specified an index for a control that isn't part of a control array.
 The index specification is interpreted as an argument but neither an index nor an argument is expected, so the error occurs. Remove the index specification, or follow the procedure for creating a control array. Set the Index property to a nonzero value in the control's property sheet or property window at design time.
 - You tried to assign a value to a read-only property, or you tried to assign a value to a property for which no Property Let procedure exists.
 Assigning a value to a property is the same as passing the value as an argument to the object's Property Let procedure. Properly define the Property Let procedure; it must have one more argument than the corresponding Property Get procedure. If the property is meant to be read-only, you can't assign a value to it.

I'm pretty new at d3 so I'm sure it's something simple, but it's driving me crazy.
Thanks in advance.

The midpoint you're seeing is just the connection of the first and last point. This is because the path you've created has (by default) a black fill. Even though it's an open path (i.e., the first and last point are not actually connected), if filled, it will appear closed:
The fill operation fills open subpaths by performing the fill operation as if an additional "closepath" command were added to the path to connect the last point of the subpath with the first point of the subpath.
Source: SVG specification via this SO answer
The solution here is to eliminate the fill and instead set a stroke. You can do this directly in JS with d3 or through CSS.
 fill: none;
 stroke: #000;

Some Properties of Plain Carbon Steels Containing Uranium
Medium and low carbon steels, modified with uranium, were studied in order to evaluate the influence of uranium on forgeability, mechanical properties, response to heat treatment and microstructure. Uranium contents ranged up to 0.70 per cent. The medium carbon steels are hot short if the uranium content exceeds about 0.35 per cent. More uranium can be tolerated in low carbon steels. The hot shortness is caused by the formation of intergranular phase UFe1.

Chevy Tahoe P1153: Causes, Meaning, and Diagnosis
P1153 Chevy Tahoe
P1153 is not a very common diagnostic trouble code. It can have different meanings depending on the manufacturer in question. For the Chevy Tahoe, it means:
P1153:HO2S Insufficient Switching (Bank 2, Sensor 1)
As long as your scanner confirms that the code is for insufficient switching of the heated oxygen sensor, you're good to go.
P1153 Meaning
P1153 Code Definition: Chevy Tahoe
In the standard definition of P1153, there are three separate sections. HO2S, Insufficient Switching, and Bank 2 Sensor 1.
While your Tahoe's exhaust system can have many oxygen sensors, the first in line is the most important for metering the air/fuel ratio and keeping the engine running efficiently.
Insufficient Switching
As stated above, your engine's computer (known as the ECM, or PCM) monitors the air-fuel ratio using the heated oxygen sensor.
It'll monitor the oxygen sensors in closed-loop operation for 90 seconds to determine if there is anything wrong with them. It does this by counting the number of times the oxygen sensors switch back and forth between rich and lean cycles.
When there is an insufficient number of switches between rich/lean and lean/rich, the Chevy Tahoe will throw P1153.
Bank 2 Sensor 1
The term "bank" refers to a row of cylinders. So, the amount of cylinder heads a vehicle has determines the number of banks (it can only be one or two).
P1153 can ONLY appear on engines with two banks. So, you're going to need to determine which side of the engine is bank 2 in your Tahoe.
While it is annoying to have to find bank 2, having two banks is nice since we can use the "swap test" to diagnose P1153 later. The swap test will allow you to eliminate the heated oxygen sensor as a possible cause of P1153.
Now that we know what P1153 means and how to find the oxygen sensor, we can begin to diagnose it in earnest.
Chevy Tahoe P1153: Symptoms
More often than not, the check engine light is the only symptom that you will experience with P1153. Although it's not unheard of for a vehicle to experience:
 - Rough Idle
 - Loss of Power
 - Black Exhaust
Chevy Tahoe P1153: Causes + Diagnosis
Tahoe P1153 Diagnosis
Here's a pretty solid procedure for diagnosing a bad oxygen sensor. If you aren't good with a code scanner, start with section 3, swap test.
1. Capture the Short/Long Term Fuel Trim Values
If you happen to have access to a scan tool, you can use it to capture the short and long-term fuel trim values. You'll need to make sure that the engine is warmed up before you do this.
Doing this will help you determine if the O2 sensor operates within spec any looking under the hood. You'll need to compare the values that you capture with your tool with the values Chevy specifies.
2. Check the Wiring Harness at the O2 Sensor
DTC P1153 Fix
The bank two sensor one oxygen sensor has a tough life. It is right there on the hot exhaust; it also has to deal with a lot of engine vibration. The wiring harness to the sensor will fail more than almost any other wiring in your Tahoe.
Check to see if the wiring is burnt or frayed. Make sure that the pigtail that plugs into the sensor is snugged in tight and has no damage itself. You can do this pretty quickly with a flashlight. You can usually see this oxygen sensor without having to take anything apart.
You can use a multimeter to determine if there's a short or open circuit. This article can make you an expert on the subject in no time.
3. Swap Test (Optional V6, V8 Only)
Since your Tahoe has a V-8 or V6 engine, you can do something called the swap test. Basically, it involves removing the bank one sensor one oxygen(B1S1) sensor and replacing it with the bank two sensor one sensor(B2S1).
Here's how to do the swap test:
 - First, clear the DTC codes with your scanner.
 - Swap the Bank 2 Sensor 1 O2 sensor with the Bank 1 Sensor 1. They'll be on or right after the exhaust manifold on each side of the engine.
 - If the code changes to P1133 (which indicates the O2 sensor on Bank 1 is insufficiently switching), that is proof enough that your Tahoe needs a new O2 sensor.
 - If the code remains P1153, you'll need to continue pursuing your diagnosis, knowing that both O2 sensors are working fine.
4. Exhaust/Vacuum Leaks
Often a worn or brittle vacuum line will allow unmetered air into your Tahoe's engine. When this happens, it creates a lean condition.
You can test for a vacuum leak around the vacuum lines and the intake manifold. A common method is to spray carb cleaner around the intake/vacuum lines. When the spot is found, the engine will rev higher with no throttle input.
An exhaust leak can redirect the gasses that are supposed to be passing over the O2 sensor. This can leave it with a flat curve, which can throw P1153.
A bad oxygen sensor is the most common reason that your Chevy Tahoe will have P1153. However, there can be other issues that cause this code as well.

How Saudi Restaurants Can Increase their Efficiency With An Automatic KOT System
Technology has become an indispensable part of streamlining and running restaurant operations seamlessly. The restaurant Kitchen Order Ticket (KOT) is a small, yet critical aspect of the restaurant ordering system. KOT is a note which is forwarded to the kitchen and billing division, as soon as an order is placed while one copy is retained in the system for future reference. Kitchen Order Tickets primarily contain details related to the items ordered, table number, and the quantity. Having an automated restaurant KOT reduces the scope for manual errors, saves time, helps with real-time reporting of all the orders at your restaurant, and reduces monetary discrepancies. This article explains how an automated KOT System improves restaurant ordering and kitchen Operations and why restaurants in Saudi Arabia must consider shifting towards it.
How An Automated KOT System Will Improve Restaurant Ordering And Kitchen Operations In Saudi Arabia
Traditional KOT generation is a slow, manual process, having much scope for errors, and gives little room for monitoring and tracking the orders. Thus, it is important to switch to an automated restaurant KOT application that not only saves time and increases efficiency but also reduces your costs in the long run.
A smart restaurant POS provides instant KOT generation and helps manage other operations such as customer relationship management, inventory management, detailed reporting, etc.
An automated KOT system is easy to use and install. The entire process can be broken down into three simple steps:
 - Install KOT printers in the kitchen and bar.
 - Make sure that the kitchen prepares and supplies food, based on the printed KOT. Train all your staff accordingly.
 - Install the POS system at the foodservice desk.
Shifting to an automated restaurant generation process can have a lot of benefits. These are the various ways in which an automated restaurant KOT generation process can smoothen your restaurant operations:
1. Ease Of Use
The method of accepting orders into the POS is straightforward. After punching the orders into the system, one can automatically generate the restaurant KOT. Due to its touchscreen interface, it becomes easy for the servers to operate the KOT system. Even for the restaurant staff that is not very tech-savvy, a simple and automatic KOT generation process makes it much easier to process the orders.
2. Accelerates Restaurant Services
The food service process is accelerated as the order is punched on the shop floor, whereas the KOT is printed in the kitchen in real-time. In the traditional KOT generation process, there is always a requirement to handover the KOT manually.
This arrangement also saves time as it allows the automatic capture of data. It reduces the overall table turnaround and the time taken to serve the customers. This has a direct impact on customer satisfaction since it takes less time for your staff to communicate, prepare, and deliver the orders.
In case operators are looking for ways to further automate the restaurant ordering system, they can digitize the entire KOT generation process too. A Kitchen Display System (KDS) comes in handy as instead of printing a paper-based KOT, the orders are directly displayed on display screens along with the order details. KDS not only improves efficiency in your restaurant kitchen, but it also saves substantial time and helps improve the customer experience.
Why Do You Need Cloud Kitchen POS
3. Integrates Seamlessly With Online Ordering Platforms
One of the biggest challenges that restaurateurs often face is streamlining the food delivery orders from online ordering platforms such as Talabat, UberEats, etc. Unless your restaurant ordering system is automated, there are high chances that the online orders may get delayed or missed while sending them to the kitchen for preparation. An automatic restaurant KOT application system ensures that online orders are directly accepted at the POS, and the KOT is generated immediately and printed in the kitchen.
4. Reduces the Scope for Discrepancies
Restaurants can have complete control over their business through real-time monitoring, even if they have outlets at multiple locations. Live analytics allow you to view the number of KOTs generated and enable you to monitor your restaurant operations at all times, from anywhere.
As one can easily access daily sales and stock details, it helps in minimizing revenue leakage. When restaurant operators in Saudi Arabia can monitor the entire information related to raw materials, whether in stock or items that need to be ordered, etc. there will be fewer chances of duplicate orders. One can also exercise theft control because you can keep a tab on the inflow and outflow of materials in real-time.
5. Reduces Dependency On Manual Entries
In the manual KOT generation system, the wait staff always checks or rechecks the KOT. Automated restaurant KOT system not only reduces the manual tasks at hand but also lowers the labor costs. Besides, it also cuts down the wrong delivery problem as it contains the token number, which is also present on the bill.
New-age cloud restaurant POS systems are easy to install and do not require much space. When the billing apps are integrated with the KOT feature, restaurant operators do not need to invest much. These are usually affordable and bring an overall improvement to the business and the revenue earned.
An automated restaurant KOT application will not only help you accelerate your restaurant operations but will also help in reducing your operating expenses to a great extent. Invest in an automated KOT generation system and increase the efficiency of your restaurant operations in Saudi Arabia.

Discrimination of bio-crystallogram images using neural networks
MetadataShow full item record
This study utilized a unique neural network model for texture image analysis to differentiate the crystallograms from pairs of fresh red pepper fruits from conventional and organic farms. The differences in visually analyzed samples are defined as the distribution of crystals on the circular glass underlay, the thin or thick structure of crystal needles, the angles between branches and side needles, etc. However, the visual description and definition of bio-crystallogram images has major disadvantages. A novel methodology called an image neural network (INN) has been developed to overcome these shortcomings. The 1,488 × 2,240 pixel bio-crystallogram images were acquired in a lab and cropped to 425 × 1,025 pixel images. These depicted either a conventional sweet red pepper or an organic sweet red pepper. A set of 19 images was utilized to train the image neural network. A new set of 4 images was then prepared to test the INN performance. Overall, the INN achieved an average recognition performance of 100 %. This high level of recognition suggests that the INN is a promising method for the discrimination of bio-crystallogram images. In addition, Hinton diagrams were utilized to display the optimality of the INN weights.

The primary methods to improve a Transaction check using Uptime.com are to:
- Improve the data received on an outage
- Validate specific elements are functioning as intended
This FAQ offers an advanced use case that will teach best practices of Wait for Element and various Validators that Uptime.com can use in a Transaction check. The goal of this tutorial is to teach you how to use the Transaction check to identify specific elements and validate a page and its associated infrastructure are rendering properly.
Uptime.com Demo Check | Improve Homepage Form Testing
This demo check will show how commands and validators can provide more specific data to your team:
This check is off to a good start. It verifies our status code and makes sure the Uptime.com tagline renders properly, but the one-second wait time won't tell us how our site performs.
Tip 1: Wait for Elements, Not seconds
When the next URL or step in a form takes too long to load, it's tempting during testing to add Wait for 1 Second steps. These steps add unnecessary time to your check, and are not the most accurate way to gauge latency issues. What if the render takes longer than the time you've designated?
Instead, use Wait for Element to Exist. Wait for Element to Exist has an individual step timeout of 25 seconds, and it's a much more accurate gauge of performance. The check will move on to its next step once the element is detected. If your check times out, you can investigate this step and its associated moving parts for performance issues.
We'll use this technique to verify our form is rendering.
We copy the CSS selector for this form:
Then we replace the "Wait for 1 Second" command we used in step three with a "Wait For Element to Exist" command to check for this form:
Next, we'll enter a URL and test the form.
Tip 2: Click vs Submit for Forms
The Submit form command calls the submit method on a form, and has some specific use cases. It's almost always best to utilize Click Element instead if you're filling out a field and clicking a button to move to the next step. Examples include:
- Testing a call to action (as in this example)
- Testing a login form
- Testing a multi-step form
Copy the CSS Selector for the button Start a Free Trial.
Add two new steps that fill the Uptime.com URL into our field and click the button.
Tip 3: Verifying a Redirect
To verify a redirect, you need a command and validator to look for information on the page and check the URL. We started this process in the screenshot above.
Step 7 will wait for the next page to render by looking for the element that contains the information we passed along with our form:
Step 8 will check that this element contains "Uptime.com" (the data we passed in our form), and we'll combine this with our new step 9 to check that our URL is redirecting to its proper place. URL should contain looks for a string of text in your URL, and can check the entire URL if it's static, or just a partial string as we've used in this example:
URL should not contain does the opposite, and is equally useful when you want to be sure that a user is never seeing a particular URL.
A Quick Note on Status Codes
Uptime.com can check for a specific status code, even if that status code would normally indicate failure. There are some use cases where a feature is not publicly available, but administration should expect users who try to access this page to see a specific status code or output. If this example fits your use case, HTTP Status Code Should Be is a handy way to verify the page is rendering as expected.
Improving Your Transaction Check
These extra validators will give us more context for an outage. Here are some examples of outages this check will catch:
- Our homepage is giving us a status code other than 200
- Our tagline has been changed (we can confirm IT is aware)
- Our form is properly passing data
- Our redirect is working properly
We can also confirm none of the other elements in our other steps have been changed and are rendering as intended, especially useful after we've made a big change or deployment. The goal of your Transaction check should be to investigate errors with specific technical details Uptime.com generates as part of its error reporting, including screenshots and performance metrics.

Canteen Business Plan A complete Guide
It turns out that business can be done anywhere, including the business of selling food in the school canteen. Business opportunities that are promising with the target of school children who are hobby
Canteen Business Plan
Of course, opening a business in a school canteen is different from opening an ordinary food business. Foods that are sold are not only tasty but also inexpensive, making full and nutritious.
Because not a few who open a school canteen business, the food served is not healthy, so they become infected.
Besides, there must be a special trick so that food is interesting to buy. But how can I make the sale of school canteens more purchased than other snacks?
Okay start now
1. Make A Full Meal
Sometimes for school children who are given mediocre allowances but have not had breakfast, they usually prefer filling foods rather than good taste. Because sometimes good food is not filling because the size is not large.
2. Hot Food Not To Be Heated
Even though they are children, they are usually good at choosing food. They prefer foods that are still warm and avoid foods that are warmed up.
Especially if it's fried food, it must be caught from a more brown or blackened fried skin. So it's better to cook the food an hour before recess so the food sold is still warm to eat.
3. Fried Food
One of the most popular foods in the school canteen is fried food, because it is cheap and tasty and also filling.
You can sell a variety of fried foods ranging from egg rolls, fish, samosas, hush puppies, onion rings, chicken legs, french fries, resolve to chocolate bananas. This food will sell quickly even if it is sold in hot or cold weather.
4. Fried Rice
These foods are usually highly sought after by those who don't have time to eat breakfast. But the price is indeed more expensive than if you buy other foods especially if added to side dishes such as tempeh, egg, and chicken.
Even so, this food is a shame if it is not sold in your canteen because it is one of the foods that are sought at rest and before entering class.
If you want to sell this, you don't need to bother bringing frying pans and stoves to the school canteen, just wrap them in the plastic paper that you have prepared from home.
But if the school canteen is qualified to accommodate frying pans and stoves it would not hurt if you bring both of this equipment to school. Because your fried rice or noodles are more delicious because they are served warm.
5. Uduk Rice
Although they are both rice, uduk rice has its own taste so there are its own connoisseurs. But this rice is cheaper than fried rice or fried noodles.
But this rice is more unpleasant if eaten at rest because it is better eaten before going to class or in the morning for breakfast.
6. Siomay
For those who are hungry but do not want to eat rice, usually, school children choose to eat dumplings.
Because in addition to filling this food also tastes good and the price is not too expensive, enough for middle-aged school children.
7. Seblak Meatballs
Food made from crackers that are boiled and given spicy seasoning is indeed a trend, especially in the school canteen.
The price is not too high. Usually, seblak can be sold with a variety of flavors, ranging from original, seblak meatballs, seblak claw, seblak chicken to a mix seblak.
8. Sosis Bakar
Foods made from ground beef is pretty much looking for it. Like eating dumplings eating enough roasted societies makes the stomach full.
You can sell grilled sausages with a variety of flavors that can be original, cheese, spicy, Balado, and others. Usually, to sell this, you need Teflon to bake so that the leftover roasting smoke does not disturb the school.
9. Cimol, Cilok, Cilor
These three foods made from ACI are in demand if sold in the school canteen. Because it's cheap, tasty and can get in large quantities.
This food is very profitable if sold in the canteen because of its simple ingredients, tapioca can develop when cooked.
10. Steamed Cake
The steamed cake is also a sought after food because it is filling. It can be a food replacement for rice for those who have not had breakfast. If you can't make it, you can buy it at the market or order it in a cake shop.
11. Pizza Mini
This tasty, oily, and cheap food also looks for it a lot. Because these foods are filling and tasty when making snacks. You can make it yourself at home by using Teflon which is then topped with sausages or meatballs, sauce and also vegetables.
12. Pudding
Children certainly like jelly, so lozenges are also many who are looking for it. You can also make yourself at home.

Here's how to say the Hogwarts houses in other languages
Text size Aa Aa
The Harry Potter franchise is a global sensation and the books have been translated from British English into around 73 languages.
While some translators have stayed true to the original English spelling and pronunciation, others have changed the names of characters and places for their audience.
The Hogwarts houses, named after the four founders of the school of witchcraft and wizardry, are at the core of the books and films.
In the English versions, the four houses are called Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin, and while their pronunciations may vary, these names have been kept in the Portuguese, German, Spanish and Turkish translations.
Despite using a different alphabet, the Arabic and Greek translations keep the same pronunciation of all the Hogwarts houses, with "Gryffindor" written غودريك غريفندور and Γκρίφιντορ, but pronounced the same as in English.
Italian, French, Welsh and Hungarian have completely changed some of the houses to make their onomatopoeic quality more obvious for their audience.
"Slytherin" became "Serpentard" in French and in Welsh, translators went for the descriptive "Slaffenog".
"Hufflepuff", the house represented by a badger, became "Tassorosso" in Italian, "Poufsouffle" in French and "Wfftiwff" in Welsh.

How to Make an Oceanic Gope Board Part 3
Draw the shape for your Gope board. Make sure it is symmetrical and then cut it out. Next, fold the sheet of construction paper lengthwise. In cursive, write your name along the folded edge of the paper making certain that all letters set on the folded edge.
Fatten up the letters with the pencil and then cut out your name. Be careful not to cut apart any of your letters. Also, don't forget to cut out the openings in the letters and the areas along the folded edge. Glue the design onto another sheet of construction paper a bit different earthy color.
Cut out the name design leaving about a quarter inch border. Again, don't forget to cut out the openings of the letters then glue this onto your cardboard Gope board. Choose a border design from your patterns sheet and decorate with earth color such as browns, ochre, sienna, black and white, avoid blue and green.
Use markers or oil pastels. Apply a different pattern to your name design. For fun, choose some Papua New Guinea images to decorate the empty spaces of your board. Finish it off with some bundles of raffia and remember to have fun.

Australia: the next culinary capital?
A food museum could put Australia firmly on the global food tourist map, but defining our national food culture could be a challenge, according to an Australian tourism expert.
From Sweden's Disgusting Food Museum and the Netherlands' Dutch Cheese Museum to the Philippines' Desert Museum and Spain's Museu de la Xocolata, countries all over the world are increasingly capitalising on the lucrative food traveller market – according to the World Food Travel Association, around 53 percent of holidaymakers are food travellers.
Tourism expert and Edith Cowan University researcher Dr Eerang Park believes that food travel could be a golden opportunity for Australia when international travel resumes post-COVID. However, the first step will be understanding what makes Australia's cuisine unique.
"We need to prepare for beyond the pandemic," Dr Park says. "We can tap into culinary tourism by positioning Australia as a destination of choice for a unique food experience.
"Australia has some incredibly diverse offerings for food tourists, from modern gastronomy to traditional Indigenous cuisine. We should showcase this to Australians and to the world."
More than just pavlova and Vegemite
Dr Park says while Australia is home to some iconic foods – such as Vegemite, Tim Tams and lamingtons – the key to a successful food museum will be in defining our food culture.
"Australia is well-known around the world for its high-quality produce, particularly our fresh food and wine," she says. "But how do we express our food culture and identity while also embracing our vast and diverse heritage and Indigenous history?
"Food tourism is deeper than just a few special dishes – it needs to go beyond the food to the culture and wider experience."
Hungry for knowledge
Dr Park has researched gastronomy travel around the world to understand what attracts holidaymakers. Her latest study explored the motivations of food tourists who visited China's Hangzhou Cuisine Museum, which features lifelike models of dishes from different historical periods, and found that providing an authentic and engaging experience was key.
"Food museum visitors want an immersive experience with the ability to taste and enjoy the food while learning about its origins and history," Dr Park says. "Around the world, we're already seeing a gradual shift in museums from look-but-don't-touch monuments to more interactive places for visitors to explore and learn."
Dr Park believes the opportunity for an Australian food museum is ripe for the picking.
"When the world recovers from the devastating impacts of COVID-19, what better way for people to reconnect, explore and engage than through food?"

Ek mukhi Rudraksha : One face Rudraksh
Ek mukhi Rudraksha is the resemblance of Lord Shiva. It is Diamond in Rudrakshas. It makes us Kings. But, What makes it so Powerful? Is it allowed to wear on body? How to get benefits from Ek mukhi Rudraksha? Let us discuss about Ek mukhi.
What is Ekmukhi Rudraksha?
Ek mukhi (Eka mukhi / One Mukhi Rudraksha) is a Wonder of Nature. Normally Rudraksha beads will have 5 lines (Mukhi) on them. They resemble 5 compartments of Rudraksha nut. Each compartment contains a seed in it. But, Ek mukhi will have only one seed!
What is the shape of Ekmukhi?
Normal Ek mukhi is Half-moon shaped or Cashew-nut (Kaju dana) shaped. Not agreeing with me? Ha, Ha! What I told is NORMAL. Round Ek mukhi are present. But, they are very very rare. The reason is Rudraksha nut can't retain it's roundness with one compartment. Not only Ek mukhi, but many Two mukhi and Three mukhi Rudrakshas are not completely Round. They will turn some what oval vertically. Also note: As the lines (Mukhi) of Rudraksha increase, the bead gradually flattens.
Roundness increases the Power. But, Ek mukhi is always Ek mukhi.
Why One Face Rudraksha is so Powerful?
Nobody knows! But we can prove the superiority of One Face Rudraksha with a Rudraksha test. Milk will not spoil for 5 days if Ek mukhi is placed in it. The reason may be in the Astral body of this Rudraksha.
Is Eka mukhi allowed to wear on body?
This is an important question. Yes. Allowed! But, remember Ek mukhi Rudraksha is directly Lord Shiva himself (Sakshat Shiva swarupa). We have to behave as if we are in the Paradise of Shiva (Kailasa). No exceptions.
Like all Rudraksha Ek mukhi is also not allowed to wear while taking Alcohol, While participating in sex, and in Menstrual period. Keep it beside while taking bath to protect from water.
Children bellow 12 years can't bear the Power of Ek mukhi. For normal people, it is better to worship Ek mukhi Rudraksha rather than wearing it on the body.
How to get benefits from Eka mukhi Rudraksha?
This is a very big question. Ek mukhi Rudrksha passes the Power of Lord Shiva to the person wearing it. It burns all the Sins made by the person (Brahma hatya dosha haram). It protects him from accidents (Akala Mrityu haram). It gives a sudden rise in the career (Akasmat Dhana prapti dayakam). The person rules the world (Shiva Shakti pradayakam). If he wishes he will attain Mukti (Shiva Sayujya pradayakam).
Basic Mantra to use Ek mukhi is - "(Aum) NamasShivaya".
Only this much? Don't worry. I'm also interested in Ek mukhi Rudraksha like you. I will write at least 20 articles just on Ekmukhi. I will explain every detail I know. Please wait.
"This article is dedicated to Lord Shiva who is the Lord of Rudrakshas"

???!!! Are you serious?
We can't smoke even in presence of our parents or elders. How can we do it in presence of Lord? Smoking is strictly prohibited in temples :)
Of course, there is no reference to smoking in the sacred books. Our ancients didn't thought of this addiction.

Ek mukhi Mantras and Puja
Sarath said...
Hi Srihari, I'm sarath. I'm wearing a eka mukhi for a few years. I got the rudraksha from a aged sage who lives in the Himalayas when i went there. However, im not so much into sacred books. I keep up mu brahmacharyam, and other than that I do my normal life wearing my lord close to my heart. I feel awesome when i do what i feel i should do. Ultimately what i feel is that what should be done and should not be done is purely based on our perception of lord shiva, which is the karma roopam of the ultimate universal power.Have a lot more but the space and time doesnt allow that!!!

Estimation of Wiener Diffusion Parameters Using Process Measurements Subject to Error
Most materials and components degrade physically before they fail. Engineering degradation tests are designed to measure these degradation processes. Measurements in the tests reflect the inherent randomness of degradation itself as well as measurement errors created by imperfect instruments, procedures and environments. This paper describes a statistical model for measured degradation data that takes both sources of variation into account. The paper presents inference procedures for the model and discusses some practical issues that must be considered in dealing with the statistical problem.

This simple but functional Roman food storage jar is based on one found during excavations at Nottingham. Plain ceramic vessels such as this would have been widely used in kitchens across the Roman Empire, on a daily basis.
Earthenware, terracotta
Approx. 205 mm tall, 120 mm diameter
This replica Roman pot has been hand made in Northumberland by Potted History, inspired by original artefacts. It has been wood fired to emulate authentic the original Roman firing conditions, to a temperature of between 800°C & 1000°C. This process often results in variations of the surface colour and texture, emulating original Roman Pottery and giving each pot it's unique character.
Health and Safety
This is a Museum Quality Replica made using the tools and techniques that would have been used during the Roman era. As this is an unglazed pot with a porous surface it will absorb some of the flavours during us, which does add to the flavour of future dishes. However, it does also mean that this pot does not meet modern Health and Safety standards and therefore we do not advise that it is used for food storage with. When the Romans cooked in ceramic pots they would rely on applying sufficient heat to the pot and contents to ensure that all bacteria was killed. Heating to over 70°C for at least 10 minutes would have killed most disease causing bacteria and temperatures of 100°C would do even more.

Are In-Demand Jobs in the Hospitality Sector, In-Demand for Opportunity Youth?
A familiar theme in a "changing world of work" is the fear of job loss to automation, matched by insufficient job creation to meet the demands of youth unemployment. Despite these fears, the hospitality industry continues to grow: Demand for workers, the large number of entry-level jobs, combined with low barriers to entry, transferable customer service skills, and a tendency to promote existing and long-term employees to management-level positions, make the hospitality sector ideal for workforce development efforts that target young people. Hotel supply chains also represent a diverse array of opportunities for youth in a changing world of work. With so much potential for career pathways in hospitality, why aren't more youth engaged? This session discussed the potential of the hospitality industry alongside some of the common and persistent barriers to Opportunity Youth gaining access to jobs in the sector, as well as some of the strategies being deployed to address these challenges.
