Long Distance Correlations in Wind Power
The fact that wind patterns are coherent over large regions means wind power intensity is similar in whole countries. In particular wind generation falls to near zero frequently over whole countries and whole regions of Europe.
Although everybody knows wind fluctuates dramatically in one location, it seems to be a common belief that local lulls are compensated by generation somewhere else in the country so that overall wind generation stays high. This is not in reality the case and this page gives extensive plots as evidence for this.
Correlations between onshore and offshore wind in same country
(Generation data averaged over 1 day)
it can be seen that the correlations between onshore and offshore wind are very high for small countries (Denmark and Belgium) and lower but still very significant for larger countries (United Kingdom and Germany).
The correlation increases for averages over longer periods so the short distance plots above have averages over 1 day while those below have averages over 3 days. While the longer term averages increase the overall correlation the fraction of points wth nearly zero wind generation is reduced.
Correlations between all wind power in different countries
(Generation data averaged over 3 days)
Table of Pearson Correlation Coefficients for wind generation between countriesThe table shows the correlation between wind generation is high between neighbouring countries and decreases with increasing geographic separation.
These strong correlations mean that exchanges between adjacent countries cannot use wind electricity because the peaks and valleys are the same.


Example Pivot Control for Windows Phone 7

 main section goes here

 options section goes here

 about section goes here
I followed you since your first mention about your pivot control. Thanks for great job! =)
But I have a little question.
Is there a possibility to make a binding to pages and page's contents?
To be more specific let's assume following example. I have products which grouped into several product groups (the number of them is not known at design time). And I want to show user a pivot control which displays each product group as a page and list products of selected group as page's content (ie as a listbox).
It would be great if you provide a little example of how can I do it with your control.
that is a interesting request.. right now the control is very much static.. it allows you to dynamically define pivot pages in XAML, but if it supported binding then it would need to be able to handle changes that might occur in the bound definition - it would have to know how to handle adding/removing pivot pages at runtime.. the current code constructs the UI in the control's Loaded event - so it is not possible to change the pivot pages beyond that..
the best you could do with the current tool is to construct the pivot pages programatically, and then add the pivot page to your UI.. here is an example of something like that:
// create a collection of pivot titles and corresponding UI content areas:
Dictionary pivotPages = new Dictionary();
pivotPages.Add("main", new TextBlock() { Text = "main section goes here" });
pivotPages.Add("options", new TextBlock() { Text = "options section goes here" });
pivotPages.Add("about", new TextBlock() { Text = "about section goes here" });
/// Method for setting up the pivot control and adding it to the stage from a pivot menu collection definition
private void CreateAndDisplayPivotControl(Dictionary pivotPages)
PivotControl pc = new PivotControl();
foreach (string menuTitle in pivotPages.Keys)
PivotPage pp = new PivotPage() { PageTitle = menuTitle, Content = pivotPages[menuTitle] };
that may not meet your need, but unfortunately there would be a lot of work trying to support binding so it's not something i'll be able to do for you.. i am going to be curious though if the final control supports dynamic binding of titles and content.. thanks for the comment!
Nice work Roger!
It worked right away. But I added a Storyboard that animates content inside one of the contentpages. But as soon as I start the Storyboard I get the message "2213 An error has occurred."
Did anyone experience this as well?
Mark Monster
ive run into that error a few times.. i dont exactly know how to solve it every time, but it seems it occurs when you have two different storyboards trying to modify the same object at the same time.. maybe try to group your objects into a grid and then animate against that grid instead of the main root of the page that the pivot control is trying to animate?
Thanks for your reply Roger. I tried your suggestion, but it didn't help. But still I just hope to get this control from the Microsoft Guys themselves :-). For now I have at least something to prototype.
Mark Monster
First of all, thanks for the control! However, i can't make a simple textbox to work properly inside of it. Let's start with xaml:
It looks perfectly in emulator and all the motions go smooth. Now let's get straight to the problem and add a bit of c# code:
private void Search(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
string text = SearchTerm.Text;
I'm getting a NullReferenceException for the SearchTerm.Text. Vs reacts as if SearchTerm TextBox doesn't exist at all... Is that just my mistake or there are some problem with this control?
[StackPanel HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Orientation="Horizontal"]
[TextBox x:Name="SearchTerm" Margin="20,0,0,0" Width="275" TextWrapping="Wrap"/]
[Button x:Name="SearchButton" Width="150" Content="SEARCH" Click="Search"/]
oops, sorry for the code. Can't post it the other way :(
if it compiles, but then fails at runtime it may be that you are trying to access the SearchTerm textbox before InitializeComponent() has run - that would cause the value to still be null.. i dont think this issue is relative to the control, but hopefully that helps - if not see if you can host your code somewhere for me to download and look at.
I implemented this in a sample app that I have, and yeah, I was getting an unhandled ArgumentException when switching pages, so I had a look at the source and the only things I found (and subsequently altered) were:
1) You're initialising the PivotPages property in the DependencyProperty.Register() method which isn't really a problem on its own, but if multiple pivots are created (which probably won't happen... I'm not sure) then you'll end up with an unintended singleton which will cause issues. I was working on a layout-type control where I was getting very similar exceptions, so it's probably completely unrelated hehe :)
2) Changing that first property let me actually step through the code and it looks like almost everywhere you call UIElement.TransformToVisual(), you get an ArgumentException with some obscure stack trace staring you in the face. For the purposes of this control (before an official one comes out), the TransformToVisual() stuff didn't need to be there, so I removed it and the control's been behaving fine since then. I'm not sure why this exception gets thrown, these things with the really unhelpful messages get on my nerves hehe :)
Anyway, that's what I found. The control looks good but I created a panorama control too and I'm just gagging for them to release some official stuff :)
Hi, when using the pivot control and within a pivot page i have a list box. If I try to get a reference of that list box from code, the list box is never initialised. Its always null. What can i do to solve this?

Introduction: Halo Zeromedia!
Whether you had a passionate night with your significant other or just got a little too enthusiastic during a makeout session, hickies can be embarrassing and difficult to conceal. Fear not, Zeromedia readers, because we've got you covered. In this article, we'll provide you with tips and tricks on how to cover a hickey and prevent it from becoming a topic of conversation.
Understanding What a Hickey Is
A hickey, also known as a love bite or a kiss mark, is a bruise caused by suction or biting on the skin. The pressure causes blood vessels to burst, resulting in the collection of blood under the skin. Initially, hickies appear as reddish or purple marks and gradually fade into a yellowish or greenish hue as they heal over time.
Preventing a Hickey
Although hickies are not harmful, they can be unsightly and embarrassing. Here are some tips to avoid getting one in the first place:
- Communicate with your partner and set boundaries before engaging in any sexual activity.
- Vary your kissing techniques and avoid focusing on one area for too long.
- Ask your partner to use less suction or pressure when kissing.
- Wear a turtleneck or scarf to cover your neck during intimate moments.
How to Hide a Hickey
If you already have a hickey, don't panic. There are several ways to cover it up and make it less noticeable. Here are some tips:
Concealer is a makeup product that can be used to hide blemishes, including hickies. Here's how to apply it:
- Choose a concealer that matches your skin tone.
- Apply a small amount of concealer to the hickey and blend it into the surrounding skin using your fingers or a makeup sponge.
- If the hickey is still visible, apply another layer of concealer and blend it again.
- Set the concealer with a translucent powder to prevent it from smudging or rubbing off.
Your clothing can also help you conceal a hickey. Here are some tips:
- Wear a high-necked shirt or blouse to cover your neck.
- If you're a man, wear a collared shirt and tie to cover your neck.
- Wear a scarf or pashmina to cover your neck and chest.
Accessories can also be used to cover up a hickey. Here are some ideas:
- Wear a statement necklace or choker to draw attention away from your neck.
- Wear a hat to cover your neck and forehead.
- Wear large sunglasses to cover your eyes and part of your face.
How to Heal a Hickey
While you're waiting for your hickey to fade away, there are some things you can do to speed up the healing process. Here are some tips:
Apply a cold compress to the hickey to reduce swelling and inflammation. Here's how:
- Wrap some ice cubes in a clean cloth or towel.
- Hold the compress against the hickey for 15-20 minutes.
- Repeat several times a day for the first 48 hours.
After the first 48 hours, you can apply a warm compress to the hickey to increase blood flow and speed up the healing process. Here's how:
- Soak a clean cloth or towel in warm water.
- Wring out the excess water and apply the compress to the hickey for 10-15 minutes.
- Repeat several times a day until the hickey fades away.
Q: Are hickies dangerous?
A: No, hickies are not dangerous. However, they can be a sign of an unhealthy relationship or sexual behavior.
Q: How long does it take for a hickey to fade?
A: It depends on the severity of the hickey and your body's ability to heal. Typically, hickies take anywhere from a few days to two weeks to fade away.
Q: Can you get a hickey on other parts of your body?
A: Yes, hickies can occur on any part of the body where the skin is soft and thin enough to create suction or pressure.
Conclusion: Goodbye, Until Next Time!
Now that you know how to cover a hickey, you can confidently go about your day without worrying about unsightly marks on your skin. Remember, communication and respect are key to healthy and safe sexual practices. Until next time, Zeromedia readers!


Enoch Bartlett
American merchant
Enoch Bartlett (1779–1860) was a farmer from Dorchester, Massachusetts.
He bought Thomas Brewer's farm in Roxbury. This farm had a field of pear trees, which he named after himself, as he did not know the fruit already had a name.
In 1828 a new batch of pear trees arrived from England, and it was realised that the Bartlett pear was the same as the Williams pear, but by this time the name had stuck, and is still the commonest name for this type of pear in Canada and the United States.

The uncertainties of power systems are becoming more and more important due to power systems restructuring and ever increasing renewable generation integration into the grid. In the literature several uncertainty modeling approaches have been proposed to facilitate decision making process for efficient operation of power systems. These approaches mainly focus on deriving a statistical representation for different sources of uncertainty such as load, generation, and line capacities. However, there is a need for an uncertainty model which can capture the frequency components of uncertainty signals for applications such as voltage control, frequency control/ stability, and grid vulnerability analysis. In this paper we proposed an uncertainty modeling approach that captures the high dynamics of renewable generation uncertainty and smart grid loads and reveals their frequency domain characteristics. We tested the proposed model on IEEE 300 bus system to evaluate the impact of uncertainty on line flows.

This is another chance to use one of my favorite approximations ever! I first offered it as an answer to a question about how deep a platform diver will go into the water. Now is the chance to use it again!
Issac Newton developed an expression for the ballistic impact depth of a body into a material. The original idea was expressed for materials of approximately equal densities when the ballistic body is moving fast enough for the target material to behave as a fluid (think cannon ball into dirt, meteorite into lunar regolith, etc). For a human body into snow, we can assume it will behave in a granular enough fashion.
The human body has a density of roughly $985 kg/m^3$. Using the two limits for the density of snow provided in another answer to this question, snow has a density between $300$ and $900 kg/m^3$. Let's assume the characters are 5 feet tall (you can easily change the number used, it's not a complicated formula). This gives us two limiting expressions:
$$d = 5 \times 985/300 = 16.4~\text{feet}$$
$$d = 5 \times 985/900 = 5.5~\text{feet}$$
So it really would depend on the actual density of the snow, but if you assume that it starts out around $300 kg/m^3$ and can reach a maximum of $900 kg/m^3$, we can assume that the final depth will be close to the same as assuming the average value as $600 kg/m^3$ which would give:
$$d = 5 \times 985/600 = 8~\text{feet}$$
That will give you a pretty good idea of the penetration depths over that range of densities. These numbers are all pretty close to what is given assuming the ideal deceleration given by this answer.
If you want to do a much more complicated analysis of penetration depth, check out the other, more detailed answer to the platform diver question. There it is actually shown that the penetration depth approaches this Newtonian approximation pretty well! It is also interesting to note that the penetration depth does not depend on the impact velocity/original height. Assuming one is going "fast enough" for the material to behave like a fluid, the expression seems to hold.

Nice theoretical answers (I can certainly appreciate them, I'm a mathematician). But why delve into theory when experiment is available? In this video you can see a skier jump from more than 200 feet and get head first into the snow, without a helmet.
The video starts with the aftermath, if you want to see the jump right away fast forward to about 1 minute into it.

The voiceover from the paramedic (who was standing by) is that he split his lip but is otherwise fine. The clip ends with the skier slaloming off down the rest of the hill. $\endgroup$ – brichins Sep 5 '17 at 21:59
About 50 years ago in Reader's Digest there was an article about a Soviet airplane pilot who bailed out at high altitude. He fell into a snow-filled ravine and survived. If the angle of the snow is high enough it is no big deal. At Squaw Valley I have seen skiers do drops that might have been 100 feet. If the landing is steep enough it is OK. It is "flat landings" that will get you.
Rock climber Lynn Hill fell 100 feet onto a dirt slope. She not only survived, she recovered completely.
Stunt men do quite high jumps onto airbags. 100 feet onto 20 feet of snow seems possible, but I wouldn't try it if I had any alternative.

Adjustable birthing chair, Europe, _PHONE_
Childbirth is made more comfortable for the mother by the adjustable seat, back and arms of the chair. It is made from wood, padded leather and iron. The seat shape allows a clear route for the emerging baby and access for those assisting the birth. The chair is also known as a parturition chair. They were used from ancient times until the 1800s. The grooved parts on the bottom of the frame were used for leg rests, which the mother would use for support and to press against. Some birthing chairs have low centres of gravity so the mother can squat and still be supported by the chair.

EmberCommandEntry Struct Reference
Command entry for a command table.
_TAG_
Data Fields
const char * name
CommandAction action
const char * argumentTypes
const char * description
const char *const * argumentDescriptions
Command entry for a command table.
Field Documentation
◆ action
CommandAction EmberCommandEntry::action
A reference to a function in the application that implements the command. If this entry refers to a nested command, then action field has to be set to NULL.
◆ argumentDescriptions
const char* const* EmberCommandEntry::argumentDescriptions
An array of strings, with a NULL terminator, indicating what each argument is.
◆ argumentTypes
const char* EmberCommandEntry::argumentTypes
In case of normal (non-nested) commands, argumentTypes is a string that specifies the number and types of arguments the command accepts. The argument specifiers are:
 - u: one-byte unsigned integer.
 - v: two-byte unsigned integer
 - w: four-byte unsigned integer
 - s: one-byte signed integer
 - r: two-byte signed integer
 - q: four-byte signed integer
 - b: string. The argument can be entered in ascii by using quotes, for example: "foo". Or it may be entered in hex by using curly braces, for example: { 08 A1 f2 }. There must be an even number of hex digits, and spaces are ignored.
 - *: zero or more of the previous type. If used, this must be the last specifier.
 -?: Unknown number of arguments. If used this must be the only character. This means, that command interpreter will not perform any validation of arguments, and will call the action directly, trusting it that it will handle with whatever arguments are passed in.
 -!: Optional argument delimiter. If the command input has sufficient arguments such that the parser ends on a! symbol, then the command will be considered valid, even if it does not necessarily process the entire argumentTypes string. If there are additional arguments beyond a!, but still fewer arguments than the next either the next! or the end of the string, then the command will be considered invalid. Note that this leaves the called CommandAction function to actually validate what number of optional arguments it actually got. Example: Given a argumentTypes String: uu!vv!u!vv The following inputs type orders are valid: uu, uuvv, uuvvu, uuvvuvv The following are invalid: u, uuv, uuvvuv, uuvvuvvv
Integer arguments can be either decimal or hexidecimal. A 0x prefix indicates a hexidecimal integer. Example: 0x3ed.
In case of a nested command (action is NULL), then this field contains a pointer to the nested EmberCommandEntry array.
◆ description
const char* EmberCommandEntry::description
A description of the command.
◆ name
const char* EmberCommandEntry::name
Use letters, digits, and underscores, '_', for the command name. Command names are case-sensitive.
The documentation for this struct was generated from the following file:

Recent years have seen increased government funding into resilience-building programmes in schools. However, practitioners are unable to assess the efficacy of interventions due to the lack of an available measure of academic resilience. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the methods investigators have employed to measure academic resilience. A computerised literature search was conducted to identify journal articles where academic resilience was either; a) inferred through assessment of risk and positive adaptation or b) assessed using a measurement scale comprising protective factors. Results demonstrated significant variability in the factors utilised to represent risk and positive adaptation, and an inconsistent use of measurement scales. Different approaches to measuring academic resilience across studies leads to inconsistencies when estimating prevalence of the concept and the impact of resilience-based interventions. A discussion of the psychometric rigor of approaches to assessment is provided, with specific recommendations for future development of a measurement of academic resilience.

This set of Building Construction Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on "Door Frames – 1".
1. The size of a door frame is determined after allowing a margin of __________ all-round.
a) 1 mm
b) 3 mm
c) 5 mm
d) 7 mm
Explanation: A door frame consists of horizontal and vertical members forming an enclosure. The size of a door frame is determined after allowing a margin of 5 mm to both the sides and the top of the door opening. This is one of the recommendations laid down by the Indian Standard.
2. Which of the following frames are used only for those residential buildings where more funds are available?
a) Timber frames
b) Aluminium frames
c) Steel frames
d) Stone frames
Explanation: Aluminium frames are used only for those residential buildings where more funds are available because of their large costs. Timber frames can be easily attacked by termites. Stone frames are used in villages where the stone of good quality in required size is available.
3. The cross-sectional area of the head and the post of a door frame is generally kept the same.
Explanation: The cross-sectional area of the head and the post of a door frame is generally kept the same. The top horizontal member of the door frame is known as the head while the vertical members are known as posts.
4. Which of the following statements about concrete frames is false?
a) They are replacing timber frames in urban areas
b) They cost less than timber frames
c) They cost more than timber frames
d) They are cheaper than iron frames
Explanation: Concrete frames are nowadays replacing timber frames in urban areas due to large costs of timber frames. Also, timber frames decay very readily. Concrete frames are cheaper than timber frames as well as than iron frames.
5. The thickness of a timber frame may vary between _______
a) 20-35 mm
b) 60-75 mm
c) 20-35 cm
d) 60-75 cm
Explanation: Depending upon the size of the door opening and the type of timber used, the thickness of a timber frame may vary between 60-75 mm. The same thickness is used for the horizontal and vertical members of the door frame.
6. The width of a timber door frame is _______ if the shutter is provided only to one side of the door.
a) 10 mm
b) 50 mm
c) 100 mm
d) 200 mm
Explanation: The width of a timber door frame is 100 mm if the shutter is provided only to one side of the door. This is the general case of a timber frame. However, if the shutter is provided to both the sides of the frame, then the width is taken 125-140 mm.
7. The width of rebating of the timber frame at its outer edge varies between ________
a) 12.5-15 mm
b) 2.5-13 mm
c) 8.1-9.2 mm
d) 18.5-20.5 mm
Explanation: The width of rebating of the timber frame at its outer edge varies between 12.5-15 mm. In this case, the depth is equal to the thickness of the shutter. However, the depth of rebating of the timber frame at its inner edge is equal to 10 mm.
8. Which of the following is not a type of joint between the head and the post of the timber frame?
a) Closed mortised and tenoned joint
b) Open and pin joint
c) Pin and tenoned joint
d) Dovetailed joint
Explanation: The various types of joints between the head and the post of the timber frame are – closed mortised and tenoned joint, pin and tenoned joint, and dovetailed joint. However, Indian Standard recommends a dovetail joint out of these three types.
9. Which of the following is an anti-termite solution?
Explanation: Aldrex is an anti-termite solution. It is added to coal tar which is then rubbed on all the parts of the timber frame which are in contact with the masonry. This prevents the timber from the attack of termites. Acetone is a volatile solution and hence is soaked by the wood which makes it ineffective against the attack of termites.
Explanation: The above figure represents a door frame. In this figure, A represents the head, B represents post, C represents rebate and D represents holdfast. The post is the vertical member of a door frame. It is also known as the jamb.

From Ohio History Central
Mineral specimens are not so nearly widespread in Ohio as are fossil specimens, but many areas of the state produce interesting minerals. Many of the best specimens of mineral crystals from Ohio have come from limestone and dolomite quarries in northwestern Ohio. Unfortunately for the collector, most of these quarries are now closed to collectors because of safety and legal considerations. Always OBTAIN PERMISSION before collecting on private property. The book, Minerals of Ohio, available from the Division of Geological Survey of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, is an excellent guide to identification, occurrence, and collecting information on minerals in Ohio.


About The Project
What is the purpose of the Tally?
The Turtle Tally project was initiated and developed at the end of 2018. The aim was to research the topic of released pet terrapins in the UK as there was little available. The idea was to provide a survey that could be accessed by the general public to upload photos and information on terrapins seen whilst out and about similar to other wildlife citizen science projects. Terrapins (freshwater turtles) are widespread across Europe and released pets have had an impact on those populations due to competition for food and basking sites. The European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis) was native here circa 8000 years ago but due to climatic changes they became extinct (although remnant populations are noted) so there are no native freshwater terrapins in the UK. Unlike in Europe, where released terrapins out-compete native species, this is not a factor here in the UK but we are uncertain of how these released pets impact the environment and what the welfare considerations are for them. Our research is evolving and we are investigating various related factors in this topic to provide evidence informing future decision making regarding these turtles and their welfare.
Using the locations and information that people provide, we can see if there are correlations between urban areas and release sites, the numbers seen in one sighting and types of habitat. This is purely an observational study so we are using the data to map out locations and linking with other groups and organisations, working on research that may help conserve native fauna and flora and the terrapins themselves. If you have any queries regarding the research, please do send an email using the 'Get in touch' link.

Implement Custom Activity Indicator With The SwiftUI
As you may know, SwiftUI does not have too many elegant indicators as the UIKit itself. So I have decided to implement some of the popular indicators that are already exist for the UIKit, but natively in pure SwiftUI. So it can be used for the iOS 13 with the SwiftUI 1.0 alongside with the newly widgets that apple is introduced currently. Since you know
UIKit views wrapped in UIViewRepresentable will not work in WidgetKit. When the views are encoded from your extension to be displayed they will appear blank
by Frameworks Engineer 
So I planned to implement this following these steps:
 1. Find popular animations for the 'ActivityIndicator'
Find popular animations
After some research, I've found some popular animations and I decided to start with this:
Implement animations in the pure SwiftUI (compatible with v1.0)
We aim for making these attributes dynamic:
 1. The count of the elements
So we start with this:
Note that we have to implement the isAnimating variable as a _USER_ because we want to control it from the outside of the view.
Also, make the count unsigned because negative counts doesn't make any sense.
As an overview, we need some item to be repeated and create the whole indicator. To creating them, we need access to the index of the element along side geometry of the indicator, so we can calculate the position of that item:
Note that we want all items to be fitted inside the main view, and aspectRatio(contentMode:.fit) is here to help us with that.
For this specific animation, we need to apply horizontal offset to each element due to it's index and apply proper scaling and and opacity to it:
There is 3 helpers here:
These two return correct bound of the corresponding range.
And this is just for the sake of compiling time. It returns the size of the element.
Make it available as a simple view
We need a simple initializer with some default values, so:
So far so good! Now we can use it like:
Note that how default modifiers like the foregroundColor are working as expected?
The demo view is already as simple as this UsageDemoView()
Add a modifier for the style of the Activity Indicator
For now we are passing style arguments at the initialization time of the indicator. But its not very 'SwiftUI'ly. To have a modifier for that, we are going. to extend it with a function that takes style and returns a new view as default modifiers are doing this. This will be as symple as this:
Now we can modify the indicator like a native Apple designed API:

Changes in rates of suicide by car exhaust asphyxiation in England and Wales
Background. Self-asphyxiation using car exhaust gas is a common method of suicide in England and Wales, particularly in young males. The introduction of catalytic converters has reduced the toxicity of car exhausts. The main aims of the study were: to seek evidence of a fall in car exhaust suicides in the general population and in age and gender groups; to relate any fall to changes in car exhaust systems, particularly since legislation on car exhaust emissions in 1993; and to examine rates of suicide by other methods for evidence of method substitution.
Methods. Population study in England and Wales using national suicide statistics for 1987 to 1998.
Results. There was a fall in suicide by car exhaust asphyxiation in all age and gender groups. This change was most marked after 1993. The overall population suicide rate (all methods) also fell but there was no overall change in suicides by young males or females. In these groups suicide by hanging increased.
Conclusions. Legislation on catalytic converters appears to have contributed to a fall in car exhaust suicides. However, the effect on overall suicide rates in young people has been reduced by method substitution.

Flint water documentary shown prior to debate
A documentary highlighting the Flint water crisis was shown at Woodside Church on Sunday prior to the evening's debate between Democratic presidential candidates.
The film follows the untold story of the activist role in exposing the lead in Flint's water, according to a participant featured in the documentary.
The Coalition for Clean Water banded together to conduct citizen testing and partnered with Marc Edwards of Virginia Tech, who helped discover the lead contamination.
The documentary talks about that process and kind of a history of Flint's switch from the Detroit water system to treating its own drinking water using the Flint River.
It also explains the role of Flint's emergency manager and the state's emergency manager law in the water crisis.

Newtons Gravity Glass is a sand-filled hourglass suspended in a liquid-filled glass cylinder. The Gravity glass is an awesome desk-topper and a question-generating educational tool. When the cylinder is flipped, the sand within the hourglass moves down while the hourglass itself floats up.
Newton's three laws of motion relate the forces acting on a body to its motion. The first is the law of inertia, it states that 'every object in motion will stay in motion until acted upon by an outside force'. The second is commonly stated as 'force equals mass times acceleration', or F = ma. The third and final law is commonly known as 'to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction'.

_TAG_. Introduction
Orb-walking, essential for harassing lane enemies and chasing them down for the kill later on. So, how do you do it, and more importantly, how do you abuse its potential as effectively as possible?
_TAG_. What is orb-walking?
It's manually casting orb spells while moving alongside the enemy hero. These spells must have zero cooldown, otherwise it is not possible to orbwalk, since you're waiting for your orb to cooldown while you're chasing. Only orb spells can be used to orb-walk.
_TAG_. How to orb-walk, then?
Manually cast your orb spell, then start moving [or issue any other command] once you see the attack projectile in the air [a trick known as animation cancel].
You should be within attack range still once your hero moves, so just repeat the process until you should back off, or until enemy hero dies.
_TAG_. What are orb spells and how do they differ from normal spells?
Orb spells [usually] have 0 cd, and they will add a visual effect to your normal attack projectile, as well as enhance your attack. Although the spells have 0 cd, they still cost mana to cast, and are still affected by Silences.
One of the major differences between normal spells and orb spells is their effects on Silencer's Curse of the Silent and Last Word, on Magic Stick/Wand as well as on Harbinger's Essence Aura.
Normal spells:
a) cause Curse of the Silent to be debuffed from the hero
b) cause the caster to be silenced by Last Word
c) add a charge to Magic Stick/Wand
d) trigger Essence Aura at its normal percentage.
On the other hand, orb spells:
a) will not debuff Curse of the Silent from hero
b) will not cause the caster to be silenced by Last Word
c) does not add charges to Magic Stick/Wand
d) triggers Essence Aura, but at a decreased percentage.
_TAG_. Who can orb-walk?
As will be mentioned below, there are only 7 heroes with skills at those shown levels who can orb-walk. For now, their icons should suffice.
_TAG_. Orb-walk tactics
_TAG_. Why orb-walk if you have autocast?
Orb-walking counts as casting a spell. This has 2 major effects on your gameplay.
1. It does not draw aggro from either creeps or towers. In other words, it does not attract enemy creeps or towers to attack you, so long as your hero is not the only thing they see.
2. Orb-walking heroes usually have a shorter casting animation compared to their attack animation. This helps in chasing, especially for Viper and Drow, who both have potent orb-based slows.
That being said, you don't have to orb-walk all game long. Once your IAS exceeds your casting animation speed, you can do without orb-walking, and proceed straight to autocasting your orbs.
_TAG_. When to orb-walk?
Orb-walk is used for harrassing to good effect, and is often the way to get first blood in orb-walker lanes [Huskar and Viper are potential candidates for this].
Reasoning for Huskar/Viper first bloods - DoT. Burning Spears and Poison Attack deal damage over time to their intended targets, so you can [sometimes] safely back off before your enemy falls. Huskar and Viper also have DPS boosting skills [Berserker's Blood/Nethertoxin] which will be very helpful in dishing out the damage.
So, when to orb-walk? During the laning phase, and when chasing, you'll find that orb-walk shines. Laning is for the harassing, and chasing is for when you don't want that enemy to get away. Cast orb -> move -> cast orb again -> move -> rinse and repeat until enemy dies, or until you should back off.
_TAG_. Orb-walking v Animation canceling/ani-cancel
It is mentioned above that orb-walking involves animation canceling. However, there are differences between normal animation cancel and orbwalking.
Orbwalking uses the spell cast animation. For all of the orb-walkers, they have a cast animation which is shorter than their normal attack animation. This gives them a slight advantage in terms of chasing, since they don't spend most of their time doing some funky animation which doesn't help you.
_TAG_. How many different types of orbs are there in DotA, and which of them can be used to orbwalk?
Item-based orbs [cannot be used to orb-walk]
Lifesteal - Mask of Death, Mask of Madness, Helm of the Dominator, Satanic

Primary Reactions of Cellulose Pyrolysis
Cellulose pyrolysis has been the subject of a large number of papers. However, the origin and nature of many products are still not well understood. This chapter begins by noting the difficulties connected to experimental and conceptual definitions and characterizations of slow and fast pyrolysis. The most representative results published during the long history of pyrolysis are summarized. The chapter points out the main controversies, unresolved questions and well established facts of cellulose pyrolysis. Special emphasis is placed on the primary steps of cellulose deconstruction and also on the formation and properties of intermediate species. The chapter concludes with suggestions for future research topics.


Arc Gun
Designed for close assault, both arc guns and flamers are accurate weapons at short ranges. A more finesse choice for killing.
Harnessing the power of electricity makes for a range of
effective weapons. Some shock weapons are designed to stun
a single target, while others can hit multiple foes spread over
an area or generate arcs that jump between multiple targets
in a lightning-linked chain. Many shock weapons can be easily
identified by their electricity-generating coils, glass insulators,
or carbon-fiber shielding meant to protect the wielder.

In this paper, an approach using polynomial phase chirp signals to model somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) is proposed. SEP waveforms are assumed as impulses undergoing group velocity dispersion while propagating along a multipath neural connection. Mathematical analysis of pulse dispersion resulting in chirp signals is performed. An automatic parameterization of SEPs is proposed using chirp models. A Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm is used to optimize the model parameters. Features describing the latencies and amplitudes of SEPs are automatically derived. A rat model is then used to evaluate the automatic parameterization of SEPs in two experimental cases, i.e., anesthesia level and spinal cord injury (SCI). Experimental results show that chirp-based model parameters and the derived SEP features are significant in describing both anesthesia level and SCI changes. The proposed automatic optimization based approach for extracting chirp parameters offers potential for detailed SEP analysis in future studies. The method implementation in Matlab technical computing language is provided online.

Guest Blog - Electricity used when pulling weight
We don't typically post items related to science fairs (I get a lot of them - they're always enjoyable but most aren't related to NXT but just use an NXT robot to facilitate something else), but I thought this was an interesting project worth sharing, especially because it's using an NXT to obtain the results - I've posted Keizo's results in the accompanying image.
BTW - Keizo is in 4th grade.
Thanks for sending this in Keizo! - Jim
How Much Electricity Is Used When A Robot Pulls A Certain Weight
By Keizo M.
Hypothesis: I think that the robot will use twice as much electricity when the weight of the car is doubled.
Why I Chose This Project: Last year I got a LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0 for my birthday. I really enjoyed it, but while using it, I noticed that the batteries run out quickly. I decided to measure how much electricity would be used when a robot pulls a weight.
Materials: -Lego Mindstorms ® NXT 2.0 -Digital Voltmeter -6 Rechargeable Batteries -Weights
1) Make a robotic car out of Lego Mindstorms NXT 2.0
2) Program the car to go forward and backward for 10 minutes
3) Charge the batteries
4) Measure volts in batteries
5) Put batteries in the car
6) Put weight on the car
7) Run the program
8) After 10 minutes stop the car
9) Take out batteries, and collect data
10) Repeat step 3 through 7 with different weights
Conclusion: When weight was increased, more electricity was used but it didn't double. For example, when I doubled the weight from 1 pound to 2 pounds there was only a 0.066-volt difference.
Discussion: There wasn't a huge difference when I increased the weight. Next time, I should make the robot go for 30 minutes instead of 10 minutes or put a heavier weight

This is a pretty simple Django question, but I can't find the answer in the Django docs, despite lots of hunting!
How do I check whether an object already exists, and only add it if it does not already exist?
Here's the code - I don't want to add the follow_role twice in the database if it already exists. How do I check first? Use get() maybe - but then will Django complain if get() doesn't return anything?
current_user = request.user follow_role = UserToUserRole(from_user=current_user, to_user=user, role='follow') follow_role.save()
There's a helper function for this idiom called 'get_or_create' on your model manager:
role, created = UserToUserRole.objects.get_or_create( from_user=current_user, to_user=user, role='follow')
It returns a tuple of (model, bool) where'model' is the object you're interested in and 'bool' tells you whether it had to be created or not.


Take the 2-minute tour ×
On page 188 of my סדור רינת ישראל (or p. 196 in this edition) the instructions for lighting shabbat candles begins as follows: כשהחמה בראש האילנות, מדליקים נר של שבת.
My limited Hebrew has me understand this as "when the sun is at the tops of the trees, light the shabbat candles."
The time for lighting has been expressed in terms of shkiah or evening or something specific to the clock (the notes at the bottom of page 296 of the Artscroll siddur Kol Yaakov speak of "approximately 18 minutes before sunset"). This instruction speaks of the position of the sun relative to trees -- which trees? How tall are they? At what angle am I standing? And maybe it is just me and my understanding of trees, but when the sun is at the rosh of the trees is significantly earlier in the day than candle lighting is usually set for. Is this statement encouraging an earlier shabbat or am I misunderstanding the printed instructions?
Help is, as always, appreciated.

1 Answer 1
The Talmud (Shabbat 35b) discusses the exact time where Bein Hashemashot (dusk -- the time the Melacha becomes forbidden) and concludes that those who are not experts in the calculations should light while the sun is still atop the trees. This is an approxamite time which is designed to ensure that one definitely does not light too late. This rule is recorded in Shulchan Aruch OC 261:3.
The custom of lighting 18 minutes before sunset is to fulfill every possible opinion in the Rishonim (even those we don't paskin like) about when sunset is, notably the opinion of the Yereim who holds that the "sunset" begins 3/4 of a mil before astronomical sunset. If we take a mil to be 24 minutes (the longest opinion), then it comes out that Shabbat starts 18 minutes before astronomical sunset. (see Shaar Hatziyun 261:21)

I think I've heard that there are communities that use 40 minutes instead of 18. I don't know what that would be based on. – Monica Cellio Sep 30 '12 at 2:12
_USER_ judaism.stackexchange.com/q/13472/759 – Double AA Sep 30 '12 at 2:14
Both the S"A and my siddur omit that this speaks of date trees (I have no idea if this means a date tree 100 feet away or right above me, or how tall a date tree is). And the siddur ignores the follow up line about what to do on a cloudy day. Chickens, it seems, are less relevant than date trees. But I would still assume that the sun is atop a tree (unless the tree is on a far horizon) much earlier in the day. The siddur's use of IT when by 1981 (the publ date) there were other signifiers seems strange. – Danno Sep 30 '12 at 3:55

Hydrogels comprised of alginate and gelatin have demonstrated potential as biomaterials in three dimensional (3D) bioprinting applications. However, as with all hydrogel-based biomaterials used in extrusion-based bioprinting, many parameters influence their performance and there is limited data characterising the behaviour of alginate-gelatin (Alg-Gel) hydrogels.
Here we investigated nine Alg-Gel blends by varying the individual constituent concentrations. We tested samples for printability and print accuracy, compressive behaviour and change over time, and viability of encapsulated mesenchymal stem cells in bioprinted constructs. Printability tests showed a decrease in strand width with increasing concentrations of Alg-Gel. However due to the increased viscosity associated with the higher Alg-Gel concentrations, the minimum width was found to be 0.32mm before blends became too viscous to print. Similarly, printing accuracy was increased in higher concentrations, exceeding 90% in some blends. Mechanical properties were assessed through uniaxial compression testing and it was found that increasing concentrations of both Alg and Gel resulted in higher compressive modulus.


TIME LAPSE: Veraison

Veraison, pronounced "ver-AY-zhun", is a French term that is used to describe the the onset of ripening, signaled by a change in color of the grapes. Veraison represents the transition from fruit growth to fruit ripening. Many changes in berry development happen during veraison, some very visible, as you can see in this time lapse video. Others are happening inside the grape berries, such as increased sugar levels.

inverse femtobarn
The inverse femtobarn (fb−1) is a measurement of particle-collision events per femtobarn; a measure of both the collision number and the amount of data collected.
One inverse femtobarn corresponds to approximately 100 trillion (1012) proton-proton collisions. Over a period of time, two streams of particles with a cross-sectional area, measured in femtobarns, are directed to collide. The total number of collisions is directly proportional to the luminosity of the collisions measured over this time.
Calculate the collision count by multiplying the integrated luminosity by the sum of the cross-section for those collision processes. This count is then expressed as inverse femtobarns for the time period (100 fb−1 in nine months).
Note: Do not use inverse femtobarn in the public section of the website where it can be avoided - it is unnecessarily technical. Convert to approximate numbers of collisions instead.

Spend Tanabata with your Japanese girlfriend in summer! | Guidable
Spend Tanabata with your Japanese girlfriend in summer!
By Guidable Writers Jul 7, 2017
Tanabata is a special day all over Japan. Tanabata, the star Festival, celebrates to commemorate the romantic story of two lovers represented by the stars Vega and Altair who are only allowed to meet once a year. Japanese people celebrate Tanabata on August 7th.
What people do on Tanabata?
People write wishes on small pieces of colored paper called tanzaku and hang them on bamboo trees. When the Tanabata festival is near, you will see many supermarket or department store will have a space where people can hang their wishes on a tree. People generally writing wishes on the tanzaku, sometimes in the form of poetry, but most of the people will just write it in casual way.
Large-scale Tanabata festivals are held in many places in japan, mainly along shopping malls and streets, which are decorated with large, colorgul streamers. The most popular Tanabata festival is in Sendai from 6 to 9 August. In the Kanto region, two of the largest festivals are held in Hiratsuka (Kanagawa) and Asagaya (Tokyo).
Most of the Asian festival has its own legend or folk tale behind it. Tanabata also has a story that is originated from a Chinese legend called Qixi, and it was brought to Japan in the 8th century. So lets see what is the festival about.
What is the tanabata story?
Tennno Osama, the king of the sky, had a beautiful daughter named Orihime who an incredibly gifted seamstress. She kept working at her room, to weave the fabric that her father loved so much. The Sky King felt sympathy for her, and he found a boy friend for Orihime. The Sky King chose Hikoboshi, a good hearted man from all the way.
The two instantly fell in love, and they loved each other so much in fact tthat even work no matter to them. Orihime began to neglect her job to weave the fabric, and Hikoboshi began to neglect his work. Eventually, the Sky King became angry!
The Sky King used his incredible power to create a mighty river that would permanently separate the two lovers. This river is called Amanogawa in Japanese, which is called Milky Way in English!
Time went on, and Orihime and Hikoboshi went back to work. However, they never forgot about each other. They went back to work, but their hearts were never the same. Hikoboshi often looked across the river wondering, 'Is she still thinking about me?'
Orihime also went back to work, but she could not forget about Hikoboshi. She could do nothing but cry. Her tear touched the Sky Father and he finally allowed them to see each other once a year.
So on the eve of July 7th, Japanese people look up into the summer sky and you can see Vega and Altair. For Japanese people, they will think of Orihime and Hikoboshi, two lovers were once again reunited.
As Tanabata is a day to celebrate the reunion of Orihime and Hikoboshi, why not celebrate this day with your lover? One thing you can definitely do in Tanabata is to wear Yukata and go to summer festivalnatsumatsuri with your girl friend!
Wear a Yukata
A yukata is a Japanese garment, a casual summer kimono usually made of cotton or synthetic fabric and unlined. Yukata is a bit expensive, but you can buy sets with everything you need at reasonable prices. Don't forget to buy your sandals! Wearing a yukata to a summer festival will definitely ut you in the natumatsuri mode. You also have to know that putting a yuatais very hard; even Japanese people need some help when they wear Yukata, so the best way is to find someone who is familiar with Yukata, and help you to put it on!
Eat from the food stalls (yatai)
Yatai in the food stalls are set up in the festival area selling food for people to eat while they wander around or to eat while sitting.
There are many foods available in Yatai such as takoyaki, yakitori, taiyaki, and yakisoba. You can also drink Ramune in the food stalls. Ramune is a carbonated soft drink originally sold in Japan, which was introduced in Kobe by Alexander Cameron Sim. Ramune is one of the modern symbols of summer in Japan and is widely consumed during warm festival days and nights.
Playing the festival games!
In the Yatai, there are many fame stall that are made for us to play! You must try Kingyo-skui, goldfish scooping if you have not tried it yet. It is a game that you need to scoop a goldfish with a hoop that only has a thin piece of paper stretched across it. It is harder than you think to get a goldfish, because usually in these kinds of games, they make it extremely difficult so that the players would not get the price so easily. Therefore, the most important thing is to have fun, and do not care if you could get the price or not.
Watch firework with your girlfriend!
At the end of the day, you will be able to watch Firework! You have to sit as fast as you can otherwise all the seats would be taken. If you go to a summer festival, people will stick a blue sheet on the ground in order to show that they have taken the place. Therefore, if you want to see Firework in a good spot, make sure you can find your place as soon as possible.
I have gathered the information about the Tanabata day, and it will be great if you can spend your time with your beloved one!


Definitions for job satisfaction
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word job satisfaction
 1. Job satisfaction
 Job satisfaction is how content an individual is with his or her job. Scholars and human resource professionals generally make a distinction between affective job satisfaction and cognitive job satisfaction. Affective job satisfaction is the extent of pleasurable emotional feelings individuals have about their jobs overall, and is different to cognitive job satisfaction which is the extent of individuals' satisfaction with particular facets of their jobs, such as pay, pension arrangements, working hours, and numerous other aspects of their jobs.

was zero, day 0 was defined as the previous business day at the same time.
In 6.xx, if the check fails, and $timecheck is non-zero, the behavior is the same as before. If $timecheck is zero, day 0 is defined as the next business day at the same time.
So day 0 is now always the same, where before, day 0 meant two different things depending on whether $timecheck was zero or not.
(*) Default time
In Date::Manip 5.xx, the default times for dates was handled in an inconsistent manner. In the Date::Manip::Date documentation, if you parse a date from the "Common date formats" section, in Date::Manip 5.xx, if no time was included, it defaulted to "00:00:00". If you parsed a date from the "Less common formats" section, the default time was the current time.
So running a program on Jun 5, 2009 at noon that parsed the following dates gave the following return values:
 Jun 12 => Jun 12, 2009 at 00:00:00
 next week => Jun 12, 2009 at 12:00:00
This behavior is changed and now relies on the config variable DefaultTime. If DefaultTime is "curr", the default time for any date which includes no information about the time is the current time. Otherwise, the default time is midnight.
%z format
In Date::Manip 5.xx, the %z format would give an offset in the form: -0500. Now it gives it in the form: -05:00:00
Dropped mixed style delta parsing
In Date::Manip 5.xx, a parsed delta could be written in the delta style
or in a language-specific expanded form:
 1 hour 2 minutes 3 seconds
or in a mixed form:
 1 hour 2:3
The mixed form has been dropped since I doubt that it sees much use in real life, and by dropping the mixed form, the parsing is much simpler.
Approximate date/date calculations
In Date::Manip 5.xx, the approximate delta between the two dates:
 Jan 10 1996 noon
 Jan 7 1998 noon
was +1:11:4:0:0:0:0 (or 1 year, 11 months, 4 weeks). As of Date::Manip 6.00, the delta is +2:0:-0:3:0:0:0 (or 2 years minus 3 days). Although this leads to mixed-sign deltas, it is actually how more people would think about the delta. It has the additional advantage of being MUCH easier and faster to calculate.
Approximate relationships in deltas
When printing parts of deltas in Date::Manip::5.xx, the approximate relationship of 1 year = 365.25 days was used. This is the correct value for the Julian calendar, but for the Gregorian calendar, a better value is _PHONE_, and this is used in version 6.00.
Old style formats
The formats used in the printf command are slightly different than in the old Delta_Format command.
The old formats are described in the Date::Manip::DM5 manual, and the new ones are in the Date::Manip::Delta manual.
The new formats are much more flexible and I encourage you to switch over, however at this point, the old style formats are officially supported for the Delta_Format command.
At some point, the old style formats may be deprecated (and removed at some point beyond that), but for now, they are not.
The old formats are NOT available using the printf method.
The day field meaning changed in a few recurrences
The value of the day field can refer to several different things including the day of week number (Monday=1 to Sunday=7), day of month (1-31), day of year (1-366), etc.
In Date::Manip 5.xx, it could also refer to the nth day of the week (i.e. 1 being the 1st day of the week, -1 being the last day of the week). This meaning is no longer used in 6.xx.
For example, the recurrence:
referred to the 3rd occurrence of the 4th day of the week in February.
The meaning has been changed to refer to the 3rd occurrence of day 4 (Thursday) in February. This is a much more useful type of recurrence.
As a result of this change, the related recurrence:
is invalid. Negative numbers may be used to refer to the nth day of the week, but NOT when referring to the day of week numbers.
Recurrence range now inclusive
Previously, the list of dates implied by the recurrence were on or after the start date, but before the end date.
This has been changed so that the dates may be on or before the end date.
Dropped support for a couple English recurrences
Date::Manip 5.xx claimed support for a recurrence:
 every 2nd day in June [1997]
In actuality, this recurrence is not practical to calculate. It requires a base date which might imply June 1,3,5,... in 1997 but June 2,4,6 in 1998.
In addition, the recurrence does not fit the mold for other recurrences that are an approximate distance apart. This type of recurrence has a number of closely spaced events with 11-month gaps between groups.
I no longer consider this a valid recurrence and support is now dropped for this string.
I also dropped the following for a similar reason:
 every 6th Tuesday [in 1999]
Other minor recurrence changes
Previously, ParseRecur would supply default dates if the start or end were missing. This is no longer done.
The Date::Manip module contains the same functions that Date::Manip 5.xx had (though the OO modules do all the work now). In general, the routines behave the same as before with the following exceptions:
Previously, Date_ConvTZ took 1 to 4 arguments and used the local time zone and the ConvTZ config variable to fill in missing arguments.
Now, the Date_ConvTZ function only supports a 3 argument call:
If $from is not given, it defaults to the local time zone. If $to is not given, it defaults to the local time zone.
The optional 4th argument ($errlevel) is no longer supported. If there is an error, an empty string is returned.
In Date::Manip 5.xx, it was recommended that you pass arguments to ParseDate or ParseDateDelta. This is not recommended with 6.00 since it is much more intelligent about handling the arguments, and you'll just end up parsing the date/delta twice.

Athlete Biological Passport Program FAQ
What is an Athlete Biological Passport (ABP)?
An Athlete Biological Passport (ABP) is an ongoing electronic record of an athlete's biological markers from multiple blood sample collections over a period of time.
An ABP differs from traditional blood tests by looking at the effects of doping rather than directly detecting the prohibited substances or methods used. This means that even if a substance has left the body, the ABP tests will detect if it was there.
Why is the NRL introducing an ABP program?
The new testing measures are part of a range of initiatives introduced by the NRL's Integrity and Compliance Unit to protect rugby league. The testing program has been developed on the basis of expert advice and gives confidence to the fans and the players who are committed to a drug-free sport.
The NRL's ABP program is part of a comprehensive suite of changes that will significantly strengthen rugby league against emerging threats to world sport.
What are the other new testing measures being announced by the NRL?
The new ABP program will run in addition to traditional blood and urine testing. The other new measures include:
 - Increased testing for Human Growth Hormone with samples sent to London to take advantage of the latest technology developed for the 2012 Olympics
 - Increased testing for peptides with samples sent to Cologne to take advantage of leading international developments in peptide testing
Who administers the NRL's ABP Program?
The Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA) will be contracted by the NRL to conduct all aspects of the program on its behalf.
When will the program start?
The program will commence in June 2013.
How are players selected?
Players are selected at ASADA's discretion.
How often will ABP testing occur?
ASADA has indicated that a minimum of four tests would be reasonable to provide an individual athlete's baseline record. A baseline record is simply gathering a sufficient quantity of data from which a panel of three experts can agree that it is highly likely that a prohibited substance or method has been used following testing. In a full year, it is expected each player would be required to submit to between four and ten tests.
How long will it take for tests to be completed?
The test itself is relatively short and only requires a sample of blood. However, an athlete is required to be in a rested state prior to undertaking the test which could result in a player waiting for up to two hours from the time he first advised of the test. Once notified an athlete must remain with the testing official until the test is complete.
Where will the biological passports be tested and by whom?
World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) accredited laboratories in Australia will process ABP tests conducted in Australia.
Is the new ABP Program supported by the Rugby League Players' Association?
Yes. The program has been discussed in detail with the RLPA. The RLPA strongly supports the testing of players to ensure compliance with the WADA code and the NRL's Anti-Doping Policy.

If a document uses a Managed Metadata field, is there a way to make the term set browser in Word 2010's Document Information Panel display the term sets in a language other than the default language of the Managed Metadata Service? For instance, even if the document comes from a document library on a site created in French and opened with Word 2010 whose default display language is French, if the default language of the Managed Metadata Service is English, the Document Information Panel will display metadata in English. If you change the default language of the Managed Metadata Service, Word 2010 will follow the new default.
Is there a less drastic way to select this language within the DIP?

As far as I can test this, the answer is no. I have tried by checking the cache and playing with local language and remote language options and I cannot find a way around this. – Hugh Wood Nov 15 '12 at 13:51
1 Answer 1
According to Nick Hobbs, page 10 in the reference below, Managed Meta Data are not "compatible" with the Document Information Panel.
Clearly, there are some obvious stengths in linguistic management within metadata mamagement, and it would be even stronger, if document infromation panel would comprehend this feature.
However, a possible scenario could be to associate the desired field programatically to the regional variations of the selected terms... maybe another too drastic approach?

Jesus emerged in the sky: Rome Italy
Thousand of Europeans observed glowing and bright shine of Jesus emerging clouds out of the sky in Rome Italy. Moment strengthened the faith of Jesus in their Hearts like never before. many Europeans cried and put the list of wishes, desires, and problems to Jesus and asked for forgiveness. Many people claimed this as unicorn moment in their life and believed them as extremely lucky souls. They hoped Jesus noted there demands and wishes and they expect their life would be better in the future.
Roughly it happened 4 decades back in France Europe that time and people who witnessed had same reaction. They believe the generation who got a chance to witness this moment or in any other way considered as special people. This time in Italy hundreds of witnesses claims to have a better future after Jesus assure them to be blessed.

Dramatic pictures have emerged showing what looks like a glowing image of Jesus above an Italian town as sunlight broke through the clouds. Alfredo Lo Brutto, from Agropoli, Italy, captured the figure bursting through grey skies above the sea while at his home. The shape created by the spectacular light show, at sunset on Friday, seemed to resemble the renowned Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Example usage
Here is an example of how to use the code to 'lift over' features aligned to a contig into a chromosomal coordinate space (i.e. using an AGP file).
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Bio::Location::Simple;
use Bio::Coordinate::Pair;
# Define the contig
my $ctg = Bio::Location::Simple->
 new( -seq_id => 'ctg', -start => 1, -end => 999, -strand => +1 );
# Define the contig's position in the chromosome
my $ctg_on_chr = Bio::Location::Simple->
 new( -seq_id => 'chr', -start => 2001, -end => 2999, -strand => -1 );
# Define the mapping between the two coordinate systems (as an object)
my $agp = Bio::Coordinate::Pair->
 new( -in => $ctg,
 -out => $ctg_on_chr
# Create an example'match' that has contig coordinates
my $match_on_ctg = Bio::Location::Simple->
 new( -seq_id => 'hit', -start => 25, -end => 125, -strand => +1 );
# Convert the match into chromosomal coordinates
my $match_on_chr = $agp->map( $match_on_ctg );
# (and print it)
 ), "\n";
which gives:
chr 2875 2975 -1
'Edge' cases
See the test script (and its results) on the talk page. Here is some commentary on that script:
What we see is that, that part of the feature to'map' that extends beyond the range of the '-in' sequence is (arbitrarily?) mapped to a 'gap' (a Bio::Coordinate::Result::Gap) on *that* sequence in the result (a Bio::Coordinate::Result). This gap has the seq_id and strand of *that* sequence, and that's that.
i.e. The Bio::Coordinate::Pair may define the position of (part of) a contig in a scaffold, and we may wish to'map' some features that are in 'contig coordinates' onto the scaffold to get the same features in'scaffold coordinates'. Any feature falling fully within the contig (or fully within that part of the contig that we specify when creating the Bio::Coordinate::Pair) is'mapped' as a single 'Match' (Bio::Coordinate::Result::Match) within the result.
If, however, feature (in 'contig coordinates') lies outside or across that part of the contig specified when creating the Bio::Coordinate::Pair, then that (part of) the feature is'mapped' as a single 'Gap' (Bio::Coordinate::Result::Gap) in the result. The gap is given in terms of the contig (i.e. it has the contig seq_id and the contig strand).
I'm really not sure of the semantics of this... It makes sense that, if we put half of one contig into one scaffold, for example, that we don't want features from the other half of the contig to be mapped onto the scaffold, but I don't know why we would want those features to turn up as gaps, but there you have it.

At the Forge - Cassandra
Exploring Your Keyspace
Restart Cassandra, and reconnect via the CLI. Then, type:
cassandra> show keyspaces
Your new keyspace, "People", now should appear in the list:
cassandra> show keyspaces
You can ask for a description of your keyspace:
cassandra> describe keyspace People
Column Family Type: Standard
Columns Sorted By: org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.BytesType@1b22920
Column Family Type: Standard
Column Sorted By: org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.BytesType
flush period: null minutes
You now can see that your People keyspace contains a single "Users" column family. With this in place, you can start to set and retrieve data:
cassandra> get People.Users['1']
Returned 0 results.
cassandra> set People.Users['1']['email'] = ''
cassandra> set People.Users['1']['first_name'] = 'Reuven'
cassandra> set People.Users['1']['last_name'] = 'Lerner'
In Cassandra-ese, you would say that you now have set three column values ('email', 'first_name' and 'last_name'), for one key ('1') under a single column family ("Users"), within a single Keyspace ("People"). If you're used to working with a language like Ruby or Python, you might feel a bit underwhelmed—after all, it looks like you just set a multilevel hash. But that makes sense, given that Cassandra is a super-version of a key-value store, right?
Now, let's try to retrieve the data. You can do that with the key:
cassandra> get People.Users['1']
=> (column=6c6173745f6e616d65, value=Lerner,
=> (column=66697273745f6e616d65, value=Reuven,
=> (column=656d61696c,,
Returned 3 results.
Notice how each column has its own unique ID and that the data was stored with a timestamp. Such timestamps are crucial when you are running multiple Cassandra nodes, and they update one another without your knowledge to achieve complete consistency.
You can add additional information too:
cassandra> set People.Users['2']['first_name'] = 'Atara'
cassandra> set People.Users['2']['last_name'] = 'Lerner-Friedman'
cassandra> set People.Users['2']['school'] = 'Yachad'
cassandra> set People.Users['3']['first_name'] = 'Shikma'
cassandra> set People.Users['3']['last_name'] = 'Lerner-Friedman'
cassandra> set People.Users['3']['school'] = 'Yachad'
Now you have information about three users, and as you can see, the columns that you used within the "Users" column family were not determined by the configuration file and can be added on the spot. Moreover, there is no rule saying that you must set a value for the "email" column; such enforcement doesn't exist in Cassandra. But what is perhaps most amazing to relational database veterans is that there isn't any way to retrieve all the values that have a last_name of 'Lerner-Friedman' or a school named 'Yachad'. Everything is based on the key (which I have set to an integer in this case); you can drill down, but not across, as it were.
You can ask Cassandra how many columns were set for a given key, but you won't know what columns those were:
cassandra> count People.Users['1']
3 columns
cassandra> count People.Users['2']
3 columns
However, if you're trying to store information about many users, and those users are going to be updating their information on a regular basis, Cassandra can be quite helpful.
Now that you've got the hang of columns, I'll mention a particularly interesting part of the Cassandra data model. Instead of defining columns, you instead can define "super columns". Each super column is just like a regular column, except it can contain multiple columns within it (rather than a name-value pair). In order to define a super column, set the ColumnType attribute in the storage-conf.xml file to "Super". For example:
Note that if you restart Cassandra with this changed definition, and then try to retrieve People.Users['1'], you'll probably get an error. That's because you effectively have changed the schema without changing the data, which always is a bad idea. Now you can store and retrieve finer-grained information:
cassandra> set People.Users['1']['address']['city'] = 'Modiin'
cassandra> get People.Users['1']['address']['city']
=> (column=63697479, value=Modiin, timestamp=1279026442675000)
