Container for model's signal data logs
 Note: The ModelDataLogs format is supported for backwards compatibility. The ModelDataLogs format will be removed in a future release. For an existing model that uses the ModelDataLogs format, you should migrate the model to use Dataset format. For details, see Migrate from ModelDataLogs to Dataset Format.
 For new models, use the Dataset logging format, which stores logged data in Simulink.SimulationData.Dataset objects.
If you set Configuration Parameters > Data Import/Export > Signal logging format to ModelDataLogs, Simulink® software creates instances of the Simulink.ModelDataLogs class to contain signal logs that it creates while simulating a model (see Signal Logging). In particular, Simulink software creates an instance of this class for a top model and for each model referenced by the top model that contains signals to be logged. Simulink software assigns the ModelDataLogs object for the top model to a variable in the MATLAB® workspace. The name of the variable is the name specified in the Signal logging name field on the Data Import/export pane of the model's Configuration Parameters dialog box. The default value is logsout.
A ModelDataLogs object has a variable number of properties. The first property, named Name, specifies the name of the model whose signal data the object contains or, if the model is a referenced model, the name of the Model block that references the model. The remaining properties reference objects that contain signal data logged during simulation of the model. The objects may be instances of any of the following types of objects:
The names of the properties identify the data being logged as follows:
 - For signal data logs, the name of the signal
 - For a subsystem or model log container, the name of the subsystem or model, respectively
 - For a scope viewer data log, the name specified on the viewer's parameter dialog box
 Note If a name contains spaces, the ModelDataLogs objects specifies its name as ('name') where name is the actual name, e.g., ('Brake Subsystem'). See Handling Spaces and Newlines in Logged Names for more information.
Consider, for example, the following model.
As indicated by the testpoint icons, this model specifies that Simulink software should log the signals named step and scope in the model's root system and the signal named clk in the subsystem named Delayed Out. After simulation of this model, the MATLAB workspace contains the following variable:
>> logsout
logsout =
Simulink.ModelDataLogs (siglgex):
 Name elements Simulink Class
 scope 2 TsArray
 step 1 Timeseries
 ('Delayed Out') 2 SubsysDataLogs
The logsout variable contains the signal data logged during the simulation. You can use fully qualified object names or the Simulink unpack command to access the signal data stored in logsout. For example, to access the amplitudes of the clk signal in the Delayed Out subsystem, enter
>> data = logsout.('Delayed Out').clk.Data;
>> logsout.unpack('all');
>> data = clk.Data;
You can use a custom logging name or signal name when logging a signal. If you use the signal name, and that name occupies more than one line, include an sprintf('\n') between the lines of the signal name when accessing the logged data. For example, to access the signal in the following model:
Use the following syntax:
logsout.(['scope' sprintf('\n') '(delayed out)'])
See Handling Spaces and Newlines in Logged Names for more information.

Although often called simply rainbow cookies in much of the continental United States, some local names for this special cookie are:
Neopolitan cookies
Seven-layer cookies
Tricolor cookies
Venetian cookies
In southern Italy almond paste cookies are abundant, but rainbow cookies weren't found in this region or anywhere else in Italy. Although it is reported that recently some bakeries in Italy feature the cookie during the Christmas holidays. Rainbow cookies are an Italian American invention and most likely created to honor the color of the Italian flag. While it can be pretty difficult to pinpoint the exact history or creator, Rainbow cookies were made popular in the late 1800s and early 1900s by Italian-American bakeries, particularly those found in New York City, such as De Lillo's and Ferrara's.
Here is a modern twist video on this old-time treat from CBS News:
Rainbow cookies are also a common dessert for Jewish Americans. As Jewish refugees from Eastern Europe settled in New York at the turn of the 20th century, they often settled in areas that also had an Italian population. It was at this point that Jewish Americans were introduced to the rainbow cookie. The original rainbow cookie was made with butter and featured the Italian flag-like design in white, red and green. Jewish Americans adapted this cookie to suit their own Kosher dietary needs, substituting margarine for the butter. Jewish Americans were the first to change the original Italian flag design from a white layer to a yellow layer and the cookies are quite popular at Jewish delicatessens.
Italian American Rainbow Cookies
1- 8 ounce can almond paste
1 cup of sugar
4 eggs, separated
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
10 drops green food coloring
8 drops red food coloring
12-ounce jar apricot preserves
8 ounces semisweet chocolate
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease three 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking dishes; line with waxed paper; spray the paper with cooking spray.
Break up the almond paste in an electric mixer bowl with a fork. Add butter, sugar, egg yolks and extract and beat with the mixer until fluffy, 5 minutes. Beat in the flour and salt.
Beat egg whites in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form. Stir into the almond mixture with a wooden spoon, using a turning motion similar to folding.
Remove 1-1/2 cups batter; spread evenly into one of the prepared pans. Remove another 1-1/2 cups batter to small bowl; tint green with coloring. Spread into the second pan. Tint remaining 1-1/2 cups batter red. Spread in the remaining pan.
Bake 15 minutes or until edges are lightly golden; cake layers will each be 1/4 inch thick. Immediately remove cakes from the pans onto large wire racks. Carefully peel off waxed paper. Cool.
Place red layer on upturned jelly roll pan or large platter lined with foil. Heat preserves; strain. Spread half of the strained preserves over the red layer. Top with a white layer. Spread with remaining preserves. Cover with a green layer, top side up.
Cover with plastic wrap. Weigh down with a large wooden cutting board, heavy flat tray, or large book. Refrigerate overnight.
Melt chocolate on top of a double boiler over hot water.
Trim off the uneven cake edges with a sharp knife. Frost the top layer with half of the melted chocolate. Let chocolate dry. Turn the rectangle over and frost with the remaining chocolate. Let the chocolate dry. Cut the cake crosswise into 1-inch-wide strips. Cut each strip into 1-inch pieces. Makes about 6 dozen. Store in a container in the refrigerator. Cookies freeze well.

To grow a handlebar mustache, stop trimming your mustache, and create a part in the center. Comb it regularly, and apply mustache wax every morning. Once the hair is long enough, twirl the ends to create the distinctive handlebar shape.Continue Reading
Start a mustache, and let it keep growing. Do not trim the mustache, even when the hair grows over your lips.
Once the hair has grown at least 1/2 of an inch, use a mustache comb to train the hair. Part the mustache in the middle. Comb the hair from under the nose to either the left or the right. Do this several times a day.
Once the hair has grown at least 3/4 of an inch, apply mustache wax. Once you get out of the shower, keep the hair slightly wet. Take a dab of mustache wax, and emulsify it in your fingers. Start in the center, and work the wax into the hairs. Use the mustache comb to spread the wax more evenly.
Continue to shave your chin and cheeks. Be careful when shaving around the mustache so that you do not shorten the hairs.
Once hair on the ends of the lips has enough of a free edge, use the mustache wax to shape the handlebars. Apply wax directly to the free edges. Twist the ends with your fingertips, and curl the tips up. For a tighter curl, wind the ends around a pen.

DeWitt: Johan DeWitt was a key figure in Dutch politics during the 1600s. As his primary duty, he managed (along with uncle, Cornelis de Graeff) the political system in the Netherlands. DeWitt's most important accomplishments include aiding in the drafting of the Treaty of Westminster (ending the First Anglo-Dutch War), as well as being a primary educator of the future monarch William III as a child. Politically, DeWitt was considered somewhat radical because he supported republicanism, a political stance which asserted that monarchs should be selected by means other than heredity, such as elections.
For Carlyle's purposes, DeWitt serves as a figure of noble beliefs and political bravery. Carlyle bemoans the loss of "the noble People that make the noble Government," mentioning DeWitt as one of the many whose ideas have been stricken down despite their supremely useful and just ideas.

|Relational Data Mining
Springer, Berlin, 2001
Relational data mining studies methods for knowledge discovery in databases when the database has information about several types of objects. This, of course, is usually the case when the database has more than one table. Hence there is little doubt as to the relevance of the area; indeed, one can wonder why most of data mining research has concentrated on the single table case.
Relational data mining has its roots in inductive logic programming, an area in the intersection of machine learning and programming languages.... The present book Relational Data Mining provides a thorough overview of different techniques and strategies used in knowledge discovery from multi-relational data. The chapters describe a broad selection of practical inductive logic programming approaches to relational data mining and give a good overview of several interesting applications.

The Explored Galaxy
The location of Deneb in "The Explored Galaxy" wall chart
Deneb was the primary of the inhabited Deneb system. (TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before") Its location in the Alpha Quadrant of the Milky Way Galaxy was depicted in a Federation star chart in 2293. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, production art)
According to Star Trek: Star Charts, there were two stars that were known as Deneb - Beta Ceti, also known as Deneb Kaitos, and Alpha Cygni. Beta Ceti was a G9.5 star with an apparent magnitude of 0.8. The sixth planet, a failed protostar classified as a Class T planet, was viewed by some as a binary companion of Beta Ceti. Alpha Cygni was a bright blue giant located 3,230 light years from Sol. Both stars were located in the Alpha Quadrant. (page 33, 34, & 41)

By 2020, there will be 1,000,000 more computer science jobs than students. However, nine out of 10 schools don't even offer computer programming classes. Let's fix that.
Computer programming is the new literacy. It is a vital skill for the digital age. Yet the Newfoundland and Labrador education curriculum is not keeping pace. Right now, high schools in Newfoundland and Labrador offer Webmaster, which is a basic introduction to HTML. The course is often considered an "easy" elective, and is taken by students who are looking for a high grade with minimal effort.
Other provinces, such as Ontario, offer education in computer programming as early as Grade 10. If Newfoundland and Labrador wants its economy to keep up with other provinces, it needs to step up and offer better education in computer programming.
Computer programming is an important skill for the next generation. Please consider reaching out to your MHA, or Minister Education Clyde Jackman. Together, we can bring Newfoundland and Labrador to the forefront of computer programming education in Canada.

Hello all, I would appreciate comments on the following question:
A main theorem of symmetric functions might be formulated: Let k be a field of char. 0. Then $k[x_1,...,x_n]^{S_n} = k[s_1,...,s_n]$, i.e. symmetric polynomials can be written as polynomials in the elementary symmetric polynomials. Moreover, $s_1,...,s_n$ satisfy no polynomial relations.
I want to see how to prove it using Galois theory. I thus consider the field $M=k(x_1,...,x_n)$ and its subfields $K=k(s_1,...,s_n)$ and $L$, the subfield of symmetric functions. Thus $K \subset L \subset M$. I then consider the polynomial $G(t)=(t-x_1)...(t-x_n)$. It has coefficients in $K$. $M$ is the splitting field of $G$ over $K$. Hence $[M:K] \leq n!$. From this we already see that $s_1,...,s_n$ satisfy no polynomial relations. On the other hand, $M$ has $n!$ different automorphism over $L$, which are permuting the $x_i$. Hence from Galois theory we can conclude that $L=K$.
My question is: How can I deduce the claim $k[x_1,...,x_n]^{S_n} = k[s_1,...,s_n]$ from the corresponding one for rational functions: $L=K$.

I hope the following works. Let $A=k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]^{S_n}$, and let $B=k[s_1,\ldots,s_n]$. The polynomial algebra $k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ is an integral extension of $B$, and hence, a fortiori, $A$ is integral over $B$. I think your argument proves that $A$ and $B$ have the same fraction field. However, since $B$ is (isomorphic to) a polynomial algebra, it must be integrally closed, whence $A=B$.

The theorem that you are trying to reprove is true if $k$ is any commutative ring. – Tom Goodwillie Jul 4 '10 at 21:36
I was not trying to reprove any theorems, and in the statement of the question $k$ is a field. – senti_today Jul 5 '10 at 1:22

Town Analyses > Jericho > Physical Landscape
There are 78 different types of soil identified within the Jericho borders, a product of the area's dynamic glacial past. Distinguishing one soil from another is the product of several factors, including the type of bedrock underlying all other deposits, the surficial material coating the bedrock, the steepness of slope on which the soil lies, the climate or microclimate that determines the rate of decomposition, the size of soil particles, and the mineral composition of the soil itself.
Why do we bother dividing soils into different types? Soil structure often dictates what types of vegetation will grow naturally on a landscape, and human activities and land use practices are often more suitable on one type of soil over another. Farming, for example, is most productive on soils with relatively high clay content that has mixed with sand for better drainage. Also, it tends to be level and free of many rocks. Although most of Vermont was cleared for farming at some point in the state's history, we can actually see a relationship between soil type and date of farm abandonment, where the prime soils are most likely to remain farms even today. Most of the prime soils are located along river floodplains, where clay was once deposited when the land was covered by a lake, but where sand has more recently been mixed with the clays. Upland farms, with soils derived from rocky glacial till, were often the first to be abandoned.
Certain trees and vegetation may also grow better in one soil than another, which eventually leads to animal habitat also partially corresponding to soil type.

Association Between Serotonin Syndrome and Second-Generation Antipsychotics via Pharmacological Target-Adverse Event Analysis
Case reports suggest an association between second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) and serotonin syndrome (SS). The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) was analyzed to generate hypotheses about how SGAs may interact with pharmacological targets associated with SS. FAERS was integrated with additional sources to link information about adverse events with drugs and targets. Using Proportional Reporting Ratios, we identified signals that were further investigated with the literature to evaluate mechanistic hypotheses formed from the integrated FAERS data. Analysis revealed common pharmacological targets perturbed in both SGA and SS cases, indicating that SGAs may induce SS. The literature also supported 5-HT2A antagonism and 5-HT1A agonism as common mechanisms that may explain the SGA-SS association. Additionally, integrated FAERS data mining and case studies suggest that interactions between SGAs and other serotonergic agents may increase the risk for SS. Computational analysis can provide additional insights into the mechanisms underlying the relationship between SGAs and SS.


text: The salinity of European soil is increasing every year, causing severe economic damage (estimated 1-3 million hectares in the enlarged EU). This study uses the biomass of halophytes-tall fescue (grass) and hemp of the Białobrzeskie variety from saline soils-for bioenergy, second generation biofuels and designing new materials-fillers for polymer composites. In the bioethanol obtaining process, in the first stage, the grass and hemp biomass were pretreated with 1.5% NaOH. Before and after the treatment, the chemical composition was determined and the FTIR spectra and SEM pictures were taken. Then, the process of simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) was carried out. The concentration of ethanol for both the grass and hemp biomass was approx. 7 g·L-1 (14 g·100 g-1 of raw material). In addition, trials of obtaining green composites with halophyte biomass using polymers (PP) and biopolymers (PLA) as a matrix were performed. The mechanical properties of the composites (tensile and flexural tests) were determined. It was found that the addition of a compatibilizer improved the adhesion at the interface of PP composites with a hemp filler. In conclusion, the grass and hemp biomass were found to be an interesting and promising source to be used for bioethanol and biocomposites production. The use of annually renewable plant biomass from saline soils for biorefinering processes opens up opportunities for the development of a new value chains and new approaches to sustainable agriculture.

Room 56: Mesopotamia
Bitumen boat model
From Ur, southern Iraq, about 2300-2100 BC
Southern Mesopotamia was a landscape of lagoons and waterways, and boats were one of the easiest forms of transport. They were made from reeds, skins or occasionally wood, and could be made watertight with bitumen, a product associated with oil which occurs naturally in pools.
This model of a boat, made of a mixture of bitumen and earth, comes from one of the graves in the cemetery at Ur. Similar model boats, made of metal or bitumen, have been found in other graves, including some of the 'Royal Graves'. They are all simple in design though some have seats and punt-poles. When found, these model boats were loaded with vessels, presumably containing supplies. They may have been symbolically intended either for the dead person's own use or used as a bait to lure away evil spirits, as suggested by later beliefs in Babylonia about the demon Lamashtu.
Similar full-scale boats are still used in the marshes of south Iraq.

Edward Estlin Cummings
Edward Estlin Cummings, commonly known as e.e. cummings, wrote attractive, innovative verse distinguished for its humor, grace, celebration of love and eroticism, and experimentation with punctuation and visual format on the page. A painter, he was the first American poet to recognize that poetry had become primarily a visual, not an oral, art; his poems used much unusual spacing and indentation, as well as dropping all use of capital letters.
Like Williams, Cummings also used colloquial language, sharp imagery, and words from popular culture. Like Williams, he took creative liberties with layout. His poem "in Just " (1920) invites the reader to fill in the missing ideas:

An increasing number of colleges and universities across the United States are making Giving Days an important part of their overall fundraising strategies.
These 24-hour fundraising challenges go beyond inspiring alumni to give, with participation seen from faculty, students, and even non-affiliated members of their local communities.
An impressive example was Canisius College's first Giving Day, with over $200,000 raised from more than 1,000 donors in a single day! Here's how Giving Days benefit both higher education organizations AND their donors:
BENEFITS FOR HIGHER ED ORGANIZATIONS
1. Improved Alumni Engagement
Successful Giving Days rely heavily on an enhanced online presence and social media engagement that leads supporters to a simple way to give back through online donations. Essentially with a Giving Day what you're doing is:
"Meeting donors where they already are – on social media and online" – Canisius
2. New Donor Acquisition
Studies from higher education Giving Days have revealed that they can (and often do) attract new donors of all age levels. See the stats from this higher ed Giving Day report!
It's important to also keep in mind the number of post-graduates who have accumulated student loan debt and who would normally not be appropriate to reach out to for donations.
With a Giving Day, more emphasis is placed on increasing the number of people that are involved in giving what they are able to give (known as "the crowdfunding game"), rather than a small number of wealthy people giving in large quantities. Because of this, everyone can feel as though they contributed to the grand total. 🙂
3. Improved Awareness / Understanding of Your Organization's Needs
With an amplified online presence through your Giving Day website and social media campaigns, you're improving both the number of people you're reaching with your message and the quality of that message. The better your cause is understood, the more people will relate to it and want to provide their support.
4. Raise Much-Needed Funds
As Canisius mentioned following their successful Giving Day, a lot of the funds they saw during this event may have never come in otherwise. Having a sense of urgency (24-hour timeframe!) really does encourage giving.
5. Rising Popularity and Success Amongst Universities as a Whole
More and more colleges and universities are seeing incredible results by implementing a Giving Day into their fundraising plan. Their strategies for success throughout the day are often shared openly and can be implemented by other institutions in order to see similar results.
6. They almost always Exceed Expectations
If you look at the Giving Day performance statistics for higher education organizations, the majority of them have surpassed their fundraising goals!
BENEFITS FOR DONORS
7. Strengthened Sense of Pride in Your Organization
Whether it be in the college itself or within certain groups they were associated with, donors can feel a strengthened sense of pride by contributing during the Giving Day. For example, a specific sports team could be recognized for giving the most as a group for that day or for having the most donors. These numbers are reflected in the Giving Day Leaderboards, one of the many great features offered through GiveGab.
When you have an established day dedicated to giving back to your college or university, you can get the entire community – beyond just your alumni – involved! When fundraising isn't only targeting your alumni, you're casting a larger net and establishing a bigger community of supporters that your alumni, faculty, students, and so on, can ALL feel a deeper connection to!
8. Increased Philanthropic Spirit
As most donors can attest to, there's a lot of joy that comes from contributing to something greater than ourselves. When an organization of higher learning has provided us with the skills and experience to succeed in life or with invaluable personal connections, a collaborative giving event can ignite a widespread spirit of philanthropy.
Giving to higher education has increased every year since 2010, according to The Chronicle of Philanthropy. Your college or university can be a part of this growing trend by implementing a Day of Giving into your overall fundraising strategy!

Mexican Redknee (Brachypelma smithi)
The Mexican Redknee Tarantula is probably the most popular of all pet tarantulas. Native to the Pacific desert of Mexico, it is known to be one of the longest living tarantula species, with females living up to 30 years in captivity. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced hobbyist, you can't go wrong with a Mexican Redknee Tarantula. Due to this spider's gentle nature, colorful appearance, large body size, and long life, it is easy to see why the Mexican Redknee Tarantula is such a desired animal in the hobby.
Range: Pacific desert scrubland of Mexico
Diet: Spiderlings will eat pinhead crickets, and other small insects. Adults eat crickets, other large insects such as lobster roaches.
Size: 5 to 5.5 inches when fully grown.
Growth: Slow Growth
Temperature: 75° to 80° Fahrenheit
Humidity/Water Requirements: 50 to 60%. All tarantulas that have at least a 3" legspan may drink from a shallow, wide water dish. Spiderlings will require light misting to drink droplets of water.
Temperament: Docile and easy to handle. May flick urticating hairs when disturbed.
Housing: Spiderlings can live in a small clear plastic deli-container with air holes poked with a pin. Use a small amount of substrate such as vermiculite, peat moss or coco fiber. Adults will live in a Large Terrestrial Cage Floor space is more important than height. No decorations are really needed, but you can add a log, or cork bark. Always house tarantulas seperately.

Combi Tq hair transplant is the combination of both, follicular unit transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) translation treatment carried out on the same day on the same patient. This treatment is available in Canada.
In this treatment, more grafts are extracted in a given single transplant session. When both of the transplantation procedures are carried out on the same individual on the same days, it's called extensive combi tq hair transplant.
Combined Hair Treatment Procedure
The combination of these two hair transplant procedures, i.e. follicular unit transplantation and follicular unit extraction, is an effective way of treating patients who have suffered a large amount of hair loss. This combined procedure of combi tq is available in Canada.
This treatment involves the extraction of the strip tissues for the follicular unit extraction (FUT) and hence, finalizing the process with follicular unit extraction (FUE).
By using FUT to obtain hair grafts, we efficiently achieve the extraction of large amounts of follicular units all at once. This one time extraction of hair follicles saves on procedure time and all that is left is the extraction of the remaining grafts prepared one at a time via the FUE method.
Lastly, the patients undergoing this type of combined hair treatment achieve natural hair with more density and thickness. The combination method sometimes proves to be better than just a single hair transplant technique for severe cases of hair loss.
Improved Benefits of the Combi tq(FUE+FUT) Hair Transplant Method
We at Pioneer hair care, offer this specialized combined treatment in Canada. To make things as clear as possible, here's a quick highlight of the benefits of using the combined hair transplant technique;
- By using the combined, FUE and the FUT methods, it helps to achieve the maximum possible coverage of the balding area.
- Using the FUT for follicular hair extraction saves on time because it allows for fast retrieval of many follicular units from the strip tissue.
- The final result of the procedure ensures that you achieve a high-density pack of natural hair that is thick and healthy.
- This combined method saves a lot of time during the hair graft extraction
- It is an effective hair transplant method for severe hair loss cases

What is it?
Equalizer is a graphic equalizer through which you can play your music on your iPod, iPhone or iPad. The interesting part with this version is that you have control over the shape of the equalization curve and the ability to select the exact frequency you want to modify.
How does it work?
EqualizerFor the casual user, there are seventeen presets that represent the usual offerings: treble booster, bass booster, jazz, rock, etc. So, if you just want to make your music sound generally better, you're only a couple of screen taps away.
There are also the usual media player controls for adding playlists, editing playlists, and going into shuffle mode. If you really like to customize your sound, there are some handy features that are easy to use but will give you tons of tone control.
Now that I have the attention of my fellow audiophiles, let's get to the functionality. The app is not like a rack mount EQ that works in the background, it actually functions as the media player front end. This means you will need to open Equalizer to listen to your music through the graphic EQ. Don't worry, it's very easy to use. The program gives you control of seven frequencies—from 25 Hz to 19,145 Hz. Each of the seven dots on the EQ screen is a point you can touch and drag to either accentuate or attenuate the frequency to which it is assigned. The clever parts are the ability to expand the range of influence and to shift the control frequency.
The explanation may be a bit on the audio geek end, but if you're still reading I'll assume it's because you are interested in an EQ, so this should make sense. Each control frequency has an influence factor (labeled Q). The larger the Q value gets (0.1 is the smallest value and 6.0 is the largest value), the more narrow the influence around the control frequency becomes; your equalization curve will look spiky. As the Q factor gets smaller the frequency influence gets broader; your curve gets smoother.
All seven of the frequency control lines will stack to provide an overall equalization effect which is represented by the green line at the top. The next really clever bit is this; you can change the frequency each dot controls. If you don't happen to like the fourth dot from the left being centered on 1,000 Hz, you can touch and drag it to 900 Hz or 1,300 Hz or anywhere else you want it.
If the touch and drag method isn't fine enough control for you, simply tap the frequency indicator at the top left of the screen and you can type in the exact frequency you want to assign to the selected dot. You can also tap and type in a value for the dB gain and the Q value to customize your sound.
EqualizerOnce you assign just the right frequencies, you can tap on the toggle to change the dots to up and down control only. Another fun feature is that you can toggle a setting in the tools screen to set the equalizer for both sides or independent left and right side equalization. Once the left side has been set, simply swipe the field to get to the right side controls. When you have dialed in the perfect sound, you can save the preset and e-mail it to your other mobile devices so you don't have to do all the tinkering again and can get on with listening to your music.
Is it contagious?
Oh, yes. If you consider yourself even a marginal audiophile, then you know the usefulness of a graphic equalizer. With the parameters over which you have control, and the level to which you can control each parameter, audio geeks will be busy for hours customizing their sound and basking in the glory of their inner sound engineer.

Can Bearded Dragons Recognize Their Owners? [& Their Name?]
Bearded Dragons are hugely rewarding pets in many different ways. As an owner, you put so much love and attention into their care that it would be nice to know if they appreciated your efforts and associated you with looking after them. Intrigued, I decided to do some research. I will be sharing all in which I have been able to find here today.
So, can bearded dragons recognize their owners? Bearded dragons can learn to recognize their owners, and do so primarily as a food source. While they are generally docile, they do develop preferences for certain people and are more comfortable and trusting when handled and cared for properly.
Due to their friendly nature, bearded dragons make excellent pets as they are usually very even tempered.
Whilst they can be handled, there are certain guidelines to follow to ensure everyone remains safe.
For instance, the right technique, the right approach and being very stringent on when are all of importance.
Let us now take a closer look at how a bearded dragon can respond to their owners and environment.
We will be taking a look at some of the most commonly asked questions surrounding this topic so be sure to read to the end!
You'll be surprised at what you'll learn if you do!
Do Bearded Dragons Get Attached To Their Owners?
For the most part, bearded dragons are solitary reptiles. Instinctively, they are generally used to being alone for extended periods.
This is primarily why it is important that they are housed alone, or at least away from males, as they can be very territorial and aggressive with other males.
Nevertheless, this does not mean that they do not make for a great pet. In fact, quite the opposite:

But it does take time, and new owners will likely find that their bearded dragon does not take to them right away.
It takes time to build trust, and for a bearded dragon to learn to recognize that you are a their main source of food.
In fact, there are several reports from bearded dragon owners whom notice their beardies preferring, or being more trusting of certain individuals in the house over others:
Source: Bearded Dragon Subreddit.
So, as we can see, there certainly does appear to be some recognition over time involved.
Nevertheless, its all about security and safety for your bearded dragon.
So, if they see you, or another family member as being able to provide this, they will generally be more receptive to you.
As with most reptiles, patience and consistency is key.
This is why handling is so important when keeping a bearded dragon; it needs to be done correctly and safely. They need to feel supported yet not confined.
You can look to talk to your bearded dragon. In this way, they can get an understanding of what you sound like.
Can Bearded Dragons Recognize Their Name?
Whether or not a bearded dragon can recognize their name is a subject of much debate.
However, it has been observed that a bearded dragon can learn to respond to their name, if they associate it with something that benefits them i.e. food.
That being said, its important that the same tone of voice is used consistently and repetitively over time.
So, if you did want to build this association, you need to begin talking to your bearded dragon each time you look to feed them.
Its also a good idea that your bearded dragon hears you speak at other times, but it is during feeding that you are likely to get a response.
Can Bearded Dragons Smell Their Owners?
Bearded dragons have an interesting sense of smell, and like most reptiles, smell using their tongues and by licking!
This is used as a means of detecting danger, seeking out food, and sampling it before consumption.
They do this through the Jacobsen's organ – which connected to the mouth.
This is also why, when owning a beardie, you may see them poking their tongues out from time to time.
Chances are they are having a good old 'sniff' (or taste) of their environment!
Ensuring it is safe, looking out for food.
Sensitivity to smell means that you may see changes in your bearded dragon's behavior if they are exposed to strong or unusual smells, for example perfume.
When handling your beardie, you may notice that on occasion they appear to be licking you, too.
This is your bearded dragon making itself familiar with your scent and also probably making sure that you are not something to eat!
It therefore comes advised to avoid wearing aftershave, perfume or strongly scented products. Otherwise, this change in aroma may make your beardie stressed and ingesting it is not good for them either!
Due to the fact that bearded dragons do not have the best sense of smell, they generally need to get quite close for their safety checks.
It is for this reason, that any bearded dragon owner needs to think about regular contact and careful handling. This is how a bearded dragon can get used to you, and learn to trust that you are safe.
Do Bearded Dragons Show Affection?
It is often said that bearded dragons are the only reptiles to show affection. Another reason why they make such rewarding pets!
However, these displays are in more obscure ways, than you may have initially had expected.
For instance, you may observe your bearded dragon closing their eyes and relaxing their entire body in your presence.
This may not sound like much, but take it as a HUGE compliment. This is a clear and visible sign that they feel comfortable, safe and calm in your presence.
You'll know if a bearded dragon likes you by how much trust they place in.
Licking you is one such way that they will look become familiar with you, and in time, they will likely be a lot more relaxed and docile in your presence.
So, the more time and the better care/handling you have with your beardie, the better your relationship will be with them.
Here are some good tips:
 - Establish a feeding routine by ensuring there are fixed meal and snack times, consistency is key,
 - Handle your beardie carefully and allowing them to explore you by walking over you,
 - Making note of the food that your bearded dragon responds most positively too and treating them with this,
Bearded dragons make amazing pets. Fascinating to watch and rewarding to care for.
In time, with proper care, you should start to notice that your bearded dragon trusts you.
Being that person whom provides food is one sure-fire way to get them to recognize you. Just be consistent, and patient.
Its all about investing time and meeting the needs of your beardie. That is our responsibility as the owner, after all.
Related Questions
How do I know if my beardie is happy? Bearded dragons will express their happiness by displaying certain behaviors. These behaviors typically include pressing up against you, licking the air, coming towards you, laying down and flat when you are near, and basking more often than usual. Ultimately, you are looking for signs of trust in you, and comfort in their surroundings.
What does it mean when a bearded dragon licks you? A bearded dragon will lick you when they are comfortable and/or trying to get a better understanding of you and their environment. During this time, bearded dragons will equally be attempting to smell you. If your bearded dragon attempts to lick you very frequently, it indicates that they trust you, that you have something on you that they like or that they are trying to acquire your scent.


Differential pulley
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Example of a differential pulley
A differential pulley, also called "Weston differential pulley", sometimes "chain hoist" or colloquially "chain fall", is used to manually lift very heavy objects like car engines. It is operated by pulling upon the slack section of a continuous chain that wraps around pulleys. The relative size of two connected pulleys determines the maximum weight that can be lifted by hand. The load will remain in place (and not lower under the force of gravity) until the chain is pulled.[1]
The differential pulley was invented in 1854 by Thomas Aldridge Weston from King's Norton, England.[2]
The pulleys were manufactured in collaboration with Richard and George Tangye. According to Richard Tangye's autobiography, the Weston differential pulley evolved from the Chinese windlass, with an endless chain replacing the finite length of rope. He claimed that many engineering firms conceded on the difficulty of efficiently disengaging the chain from the teeth as the pulleys turned, but his firm developed a "pitch" chain which solved the issue. Marketed as "Weston Differential Pulley Blocks with Patent Chain Guides", the pulley had good sales, namely, 3000 sets in 9 months. It was displayed in 5 sizes — from 10 long hundredweight (510 kg) to 3 long tons (3,000 kg) — at the 1862 International Exhibition in London and received a medal for "original application, practical utility and success".
An ironmonger challenged the Tangyes that the pulley had been in use for 30 years before Weston's patent but the judge, William Page Wood ruled in favour of the Tangyes because the engaging mechanism was substantially different from the one presented as evidence.[3]
The Yale Lock Company acquired the patent rights in 1876.[2]
Mode of operation[edit]
A differential pulley can lift very large masses a short distance. It consists of two fixed pulleys of unequal radii that are attached to each other and rotate together, a single pulley bearing the load, and an endless rope looped around the pulleys. To avoid slippage, the rope is usually replaced by a chain, and the connected pulleys by sprockets.
The two sections of chain carrying the single pulley exert opposing and unequal torques on the connected pulleys, such that only the difference of these torques has to be compensated manually by pulling the loose part of the chain. This leads to a mechanical advantage: the force needed to lift a load is only a fraction of the load's weight. At the same time, the distance the load is lifted is smaller than the length of chain pulled by the same factor. This factor (the mechanical advantage MA) depends on the relative difference of the radii r and R of the connected pulleys:
M\!A = \frac{2 R}{R-r} = \frac{2}{1 - \frac{r}{R}}
The effect on the forces and distances (see figure) is quantitatively:
F_\mathrm{Z}=\frac{F_\mathrm{L}}{M\!A}\quad,\quad h=\frac{s}{M\!A}\quad.
The difference in radii can be made very small, making the mechanical advantage of this pulley system very large.[4][5] In the extreme case of zero difference in radii, MA becomes infinite, thus no force (besides friction) is needed to move the chain, but moving the chain will no longer lift the load.
At the other extreme, when r is zero, the system becomes a simple gun tackle with a mechanical advantage of 2.
Comparison of a differential pulley (left) and a differential windlass or Chinese windlass (right). The rope of the windlass is depicted as spirals for clarity, but is more likely helices with axes perpendicular to the image.
The same principle is used in a differential windlass, where the connected pulleys are replaced by winches.
Calculation of mechanical advantage[edit]
In the above graphic, the four segments of the chain are labelled W, X, Y and Z. The magnitudes of their corresponding forces are FW, FX, FY and FZ, respectively.
Assuming that the chain is massless, FX = 0 because segment X is not supporting any weight.
Taking the system at equilibrium, FW and FY are equal — if they were not, the lower pulley would freely turn until they were.
Next, the downward force acting on the lower pulley equal the upward forces acting on it, so
FL = FW + FY, or 2 FW because FW = FY.
Additionally, there is no net torque or moment around the compound pulley, so the clockwise torque is equal to the anticlockwise torque:
FW R + FX r = FY r + FZ R.
Substituting FX and FY from the above equations,
FW R + 0 = FW r + FZ R.
Rearranging gives
FW = FZ · R/Rr.
As FW = F L/2,
F L/2 = FZ · R/Rr.
Finally, the mechanical advantage, F L/F Z = 2 R/Rr or 2/1 − r/R.

Distances in the Solar System are very large! To compare the average distances between the Sun and the planets, it's convenient to do it in terms of the average Earth-Sun separation.
A very useful approximate definition of the astronomical unit (AU) is:
1 AU = average distance between Sun and Earth = 1.496 × 108km
More accurately, the IAU has defined the AU as:
"equal to the distance from the centre of the Sun at which a particle of negligible mass, in an unperturbed circular orbit, would have an orbital period of _PHONE_ days."
This is slightly less than the mean Sun-Earth distance.

With the rate of worldwide LNG demand expected to grow faster than that of gas demand, most major oil companies are currently investing their resources to develop floating LNG-FLNG (i.e. LNG FSRU and LNG FPSO). The global Floating LNG (FLNG) market trend will be reviewed based on demand and supply chain relationships. Typical technical issues associated with FLNG design are categorized in terms of global performance evaluation. Although many proven technologies developed through LNG carrier and oil FPSO projects are available for FLNG design, we are still faced with several technical challenges to clear for successful FLNG projects. In this study, some of the challenges encountered during development of the floating LNG facility (i.e. LNG FPSO and FSRU) will be reviewed together with their investigated solution. At the same time, research of new LNG-related technologies such as combined containment system will be presented
Offshore LNG production and natural gas supply using FLNG concept are promising due to its capability to solve increasing challenges faced in onshore project by local demographic constraints and increasing environmental and safety regulations. Floating LNG can be classified into LNG FSRU which is used as LNG regasification/receiving facility, and LNG-FPSO which is used for LNG production/export facility. LNG FSRU is intended as an alternative for the area where onshore infrastructure is not well established and/or environmental restrictions are very strict to construct onshore receiving facility. Further LNG FPSO provides some attractive benefits by developing the gas at location of the gas field, and it doesn't require subsea pipeline and additional upstream facilities. LNG FPSO concept will put vitality into approximately 2,400 marginal gas fields which were delayed because of excessive investment cost in the world. LNG FSRU also provides commercially competitive and effective solutions to the areas mentioned earlier.
In this paper, some of the key FLNG technologies will be introduced: some design challenges and their solutions and a couple of design innovations devised for LNG containment systems. At the same time, some examples of how to overcome those challenges encountered during the development of the FLNG will be introduced in the following sections.
GAS MARKET STATUS
Increase of population in developing countries and rising income levels are one of key drivers of energy demand. Further shift of population to cities will drive increase of additional energy demand because the population residing in cities consumes more energy compared to rural areas. According to BP Energy Outlook 2030 published in 2011, gas production and demand will be increased substantially, which is shown in
Gas production / LNG trade by region (BP plc, 2011).
With this trend of greater demand for energy and with major focus on cleaner energy, natural gas will play a major role in energy supply chain. Further improvement and innovations in technology will drive the development of offshore LNG production and natural gas supply.
To successfully execute FLNG project and stay ahead of challenges faced, it is important to improve existing technology as well as develop new technologies.
FOUNDATION TECHNOLOGIES FOR FLOATING LNG
- Concept of FLNG
Existing natural gas supply chain is comprised of production from offshore platform, subsea pipeline and onshore LNG process plant including LNG export terminal, LNG carrier, and LNG regas plant including receiving terminal. This conventional gas supply chain gives certain level of reliability while requires large scale investment for various areas with long-term development period.
Based on the expertise on the shipbuilding and offshore plant accumulated by Shipbuilding Companies, e.g. FPSO and FSRU, it is possible to move LNG production facilities and natural gas supply from onshore to offshore; in case of LNG FPSO, pre-treatment module, liquefaction module and power plant on topside and cargo containment system and offloading facility on floating hull.
In case of LNG FSRU, typically, regas plant can be integrated into hull design as part of shipboard equipment together with power plant and cargo containment system and offloading facility on floating hull for small and medium scale capacity.
Subsea pipeline to onshore LNG process plant in the case of LNG FPSO and onshore receiving facility in the case of LNG FSRU are not required anymore, and thus the integrated LNG facility will provide one-stop solution to combine and simplify the LNG process plant, which has better safety performance with floating type storage and offloading facility.
Concept of FLNG is shown in
Offshore liquefaction and regasification are relatively new concepts which have not yet been commonly implemented. It is already recognized to be potentially more dangerous than the oil FPSO. The key facilities which have a significant impact on the safety are the topside liquefaction process, the LNG offloading system, the LNG storage facilities and its associated facilities.
Each of these facilities has to be carefully studied from operational, economical, and especially safety point of view.
Concept of FLNG.
- Turret mooring system
It is very important for the FLNG to have reliable operational capability with the given weather environments in the target field. Therefore mooring system has to be carefully selected to provide enough capability with least operational limits considering water depth, expected lifetime and environmental conditions.
Turret mooring system.
It is well known that turret mooring system provides excellent solutions for a wide range of applications as shown in
. Considerations for field environment condition including water depth and maintainability (i.e. bearing replacement) will be important technical selection criteria for turret mooring system.
The proven mooring system allows FLNG to freely weathervane 360 degrees, enabling continuous operations in moderate to harsh weather conditions since turret arrangement can allow FLNG to adopt the direction of the least resistance against waves, wind and currents. The turret mooring system is generally arranged in the forward part of the hull structure for this purpose.
A turret mooring system is composed of a fixed turret column supported by an internal or external structure via a bearing arrangement for free weathervaning around the turret. Also the turret mooring system should be designed to ensure safe working of the underwater fluid transfer or riser system from seafloor to turret. Different design layouts can be considered for the turret concepts, for example a number of catenary or semi taut mooring lines fixed to the seabed are used.
- LNG containment technology
It is one of the key functions for FLNG to store produced LNG on a floating structure, those LNG containment technologies available for LNG carriers can be applied to FLNG as well. However additional consideration has to be paid for the implementation of selected technology, since lifetime operation should be allowed on specific site even in harsh weather condition.
Typical types of LNG cargo containment system.
Typical types of LNG cargo containment system.
Since the first LNG marine transportation in U.S.A. in 1952, LNG Cargo Containment System (hereinafter, CCS) has been developed into various types in accordance with the development of materials and manufacturing technologies; (i) membrane-type system and independent-type system. Although the reputation of the membrane -type systems was slightly affected by the sloshing issues, the membrane-type LNG CCS has played a major role in LNG marine transportation because of the commercial advantages in manufacturing, storage efficiency and operational reliability (
Mainly, 4 types of containment systems are being utilized for the LNG CCS as shown in
- LNG process technology
For optimal arrangement for topsides and hull, it is important to understand the configuration of overall module arrangement and their functions of each system of topside LNG facilities. And most appropriate liquefaction technology should be selected in consideration of safety, functionality and other optimization factors. Brief process system configuration is presented in
for FLNG and
for FSRU respectively.
Process technology for LNG FPSO can be presented as follows:
In general, Feed gas is received from the gas rich well reservoir and passes through gas/liquid separation system where it will separate gas from liquid components. Separated gas will be pre-treated to remove acid gas, such as CO
S, if it is required. Gas leaving the acid gas removal system will pass through dehydration system which will dry the gas to prevent ice formation in the downstream liquefaction unit. Gas from the dehydration system will get into the mercury removal unit which will remove any traces of mercury to prevent downstream cryogenic unit from damage.
Overall LNG process block diagram of LNG FPSO.
After mercury removal, gas will pass through the liquefaction system, where it will be cooled below its boiling point, as natural gas is converted to Liquefied Natural Gas to be stored in LNG storage tanks in the Hull. FLNG process facility, as similar to oil FPSO, has process supporting systems like a cooling medium, heating medium, flare, MEG (Mono Ethylene Glycol), fuel gas and chemical systems to support LNG process. Air, Nitrogen, Water and steam system are also required as a general utility system for the purpose of proper plant operation. Main part of FLNG hull consists of LNG, LPG, condensate oil containment, offloading system, mooring system, thrusters and living quarters.
The liquefaction is the key element of the LNG plant and it is the major cost component of the LNG plant. It is essential to choose a proper technology based on careful consideration and project requirements. The liquefaction technology selection should be based on various criteria considering thermal efficiency, power consumption, CAPEX (Capital expenditures), OPEX (Operating expenditures), etc.
shows the various kinds of liquefaction technologies available in the market.
Liquefaction technologies (Eckhardt, 2010).
Liquefaction technologies (Eckhardt, 2010).
Process technology for LNG FSRU can be presented as follows:
LNG is transferred into cargo tank by dedicated LNG feed pump, from cargo tanks, LNG will be sent to high pressure booster pump which is used to make high pressure before entering LNG vaporizer, after that LNG will be vaporized and sent to end user. If required by end user, odorant

Popular Foods
Cuisine of French Polynesia is dominated by seafood, both raw and cooked, fished from local lagoons and Pacific waters. They are prepared in a variety of ways-grilled, chaud-froid, carpaccio, tartare, sashimi, or sushi. In addition to fish, visitors will also find seafood varieties like giant clam, sea urchin, octopus, and squid. Other typical ingredients used in Polynesian cooking include things like suckling pig, fish (mahi mahi, tuna, other catches of the day), chicken, crab, fei (a Polynesian banana) and banana leaves, shrimp, taro, umara (sweet potato), uru (fruit of the breadfruit tree), ufi (a kind of yam), and fafa (Tahitian spinach). Many dishes combine ingredients like these to be wrapped in banana leaves and cooked inside a traditional underground over called the ahima'a. Skewers of grilled meats, like beef and lamb, are also common, often served with mustard and barbeque sauce. Much of the cuisine here will additionally have a French spin from the island nation's connections to France, as well as Chinese influence from immigration across the Pacific Ocean.

// TRUE is used to tell the MSQuery a new query should be created
The user will see "Return to application" as a replacement in the file-exit menu of MSQuery. When the user select this, the query will be returned to the application. This command should be passed without a time-out interval, so TIMEOUT_ASYNC must be passed. When the user is done, and has created or canceled the query, the callback function is called. In this callback function the result should be retrieved from MSQuery.
Modifying a query
Modifying a query is a little harder, it can be done the following way. Every command except the last one should NOT use TIMEOUT_ASYNC!
Build the connectionstring to connect to:
"[BuildODBC(\">place the connectionstring here>")]"
Now connect: (for a list of parameters of LogonNow see the MSQuery help).
Open the query: (this can be a query filename or a real SQL statement)
"[Open(\" ")]"
The last command is used to wait for the user to modify the query:
"[UserControl(\"&Return to application\",1,FALSE)]"
// Now false to tell MSQuery no new query needs to be created
Getting the result
In the callback function it is the responsibilty of the application to get the result. To get the selected query use:
To retrieve the connectionstring use:
That's about all you need to know to use MSQuery with your application. Though this articles if very brief in everything, you are free to ask me questions if some things aren't clear. Also try to look at the help of MSQuery, it contains more commands and other information. Read the documentation of DDEML in the Visual C online help.
The CMSQuery class
The CMSQuery class is VERY easy to use. You should use it within a dialog box with a cancel button, because your application should wait until the user presses cancel or returns from MSQuery. There are a few things that needs to be done to create the class. Use the class dynamicly in your cancelbutton dialog. In the OnInitDialog do the following:
BOOL CCancelDlg::OnInitDialog()
 m_query = new CDBSMsQuery();
 m_query->Create(m_sqlstring, this);
m_query is the CMSQuery object as a member of the CCancelDlg class. Create runs MSQuery or tries to connect to an existing instance. Shows MSQuery and makes a DDE connection. You should check the result of Create, if it returns false the connection hasn't been made. The first parameter of Create is the SQL string, when this string is empty a new query is created else the existing is opened. This is the pointer of the cancel dialog.
Then you should wait till the user presses cancel or MSQuery is finished. When MSQuery is finished it will send a WM_COMMAND message with IDCANCEL.
In the OnCancel function of this dialog do something like this:
// Retrieve the result and destroy the object
 m_sqlstringOK = m_query->QueryOK();
 m_sqlstring = m_query->GetQuery();
 m_conenctstr = m_query->GetConnectionString();
// Delete the MSQuery object
 delete m_query;
I would advise you to study the included sample, and see how easy it is to use the class.

The basic shape of East Dean church is unaltered from the time of its construction between the middle of the 12th century to the first part of the 13th. The cross shape with the tower at the middle is still there, with the impressive south door with its columns and multiple arches.
A north aisle was added in the 14th century and later removed, leaving only the traces of an arch visible in the outside wall. A wooden spire came and went.
The tower arches were beefed up with segmental curves at some point, and it is said the tops of the original medieval pointed arches are still visible above the plaster ceiling in the crossing.
The basic plan even survived the Victorians, who in 1870 brought in not one but two architects. The rector, who was responsible for the chancel, employed the nationally-known Ewan Christian, but the parishioners, who had to pay for the rest, got John Marshall, a local builder who was presumably much cheaper. Fortunately, although much of the stonework was replaced or sharpened up, they did not interfere too much.
A pair of lovely 18th century gravestones in the churchyard nicely illustrate two contrasting approaches to memorialising death. One is covered with symbols of mortality – a skull, a funerary urn and what looks like a bell. The other has symbols of the afterlife – the rays of God's glory, two cherubs and bunches of grapes.
It would be lovely to know if the first was erected to the gloomy old pessimist of the village, and the other to the local sunny optimist.

Hi Jose,
You could do this using Python. Ex:
import arcpy
from arcpy import env
env.workspace = r"C:\temp\python\test.gdb"
parentLayer = 'Airports'
childLayer = 'Districts'
# Get list of foreign keys
foreignKey = [row[0] for row in arcpy.da.SearchCursor(childLayer, ["FCC"])]
# Convert list to tuple
primaryKey = ()
for id in foreignKey:
primaryKey += (str(id),)
# Search for primary keys that are not in foreignKey tuple and print OBJECTID
query = "NOT FCC IN {0}".format(primaryKey)
noChildIds = [row[0] for row in arcpy.da.SearchCursor(parentLayer, ["OBJECTID"], query)]


Stoplight Golight
Stoplight Golight
Made for kids, the Stoplight Golight helps everyone manage time! The concept is easily understood by all ages. Children as young as 2 years old can remember that the red light means STOP, focus, and complete the task. When the green light comes on, it means time is up, and it's time to GO! Simply set the desired amount of time and press start. The red light illuminates and time starts counting down. When time is up, the green light illuminates. There's even an optional alarm included!
The Stoplight Golight Timer was developed by two sisters, Whitney and Courtney, who are also moms. The catalyst? Daylight savings time — the part of the year when the sun comes up way too early and children wake up even earlier. As moms, their only thought was, How can we get the kids to sleep in later so we can sleep in later? They knew they needed a time indicator that their toddlers could understand.
Aha Moment
A couple of days later, sitting at a stoplight with their kids, one little one piped up, "Red means stop, green means go!" Boom. The concept of the Stoplight Golight Timer was born.
Once the product was created, the sisters quickly realized that it would grow with their children, assisting them with everyday tasks like brushing their teeth, getting ready for school, completing chores, finishing homework, and reading books. Plus, it would come in handy for adults, too, as a way to unplug and unwind while still managing time effectively.
Whitney and Courtney hope that the Stoplight Golight Timer helps you and your family easily manage time throughout the day, night, and many years to come.

The goals of the proposed work are to improve technical capacity of the Bangladesh Forest Department (BFD) for forest monitoring using US free-of-charge and commercial satellite data and to support collaboration between UMD GLAD and the BFD. The primary technical objective of the proposed project is to support BFD to estimate the forest and and trees outside forests change for the 2015-2020 (2021) interval and to develop the required activity data for REDD+ and UNFCCC reporting. The project's goals and objectives followed request from the BFD for capacity building support and were discussed between BFD and GLAD.
The project will include two stages: (1) supporting 2015-2020 forest change assessment, and (2) supporting 2020-2021 forest change annual update.
The first stage of the project (supporting 2015-2020 forest change assessment) will include the following objectives:
- Supporting national Landsat-scale forest change analysis using NASA SERVIR regional products developed by the GLAD team. Enhancing capacity of the BFD in application of the SERVIR regional data.
- Supporting the national sample-based assessment by providing training, support, and high spatial resolution Planet data for the BFD. Enhancing BFD capacity to perform independent sample-based assessment.
- Supporting data and methods exchange between the BFD, UMD GLAD, NASA SERVIR, and forest departments of other South/Southeast Asia countries.
The second stage of the project (supporting 2021 annual forest change update) will include provision of the Planet data and supporting national annual sample assessment and activity data reporting.

If the range of a song is good for you, you're much more likely to enjoy and find ease in singing it.

Some friends and I recently went to karaoke. You can likely picture the scene: a restaurant adjacent to a bowling alley with a cheerful crowd and enthusiastic DJ aiming lights at a small stage. We sang a popular duet, Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's "Shallow," to the room's applause, and I remembered how good it felt to sing into a microphone.
It brought me back to my time as a music teacher in the late 2000s in my home state of Kentucky. Like all of us, my students had their own preferences in terms of the styles and genres they liked to sing, but of course there were the mainstays that we all had to learn – for example, the national anthem, which we practiced as soloists and as a multi-part choir. We often sang spontaneously, too, belting out "Happy Birthday" if someone was celebrating theirs on a rehearsal day.
Without a doubt, some of the students, no matter their singing ability, had a tough time hitting some of the notes in these two familiar songs. Teaching those students and others later eventually led me to wonder, why is it that some of the songs we know the best are the hardest ones to sing?
The Happy Birthday Club
As a professor, choir director and researcher at Penn State University, I'm trying to answer this question with my colleagues, in what we affectionately named the "Happy Birthday Club," by investigating the conditions that elicit the best singing from individuals.
So far it seems that any emphasis on singing perfectly in tune can be detrimental to the idea that everyone can sing because it suggests that people should sing only if they sing exceptionally well. This is problematic for several reasons, but especially because self-concept – or one's beliefs about oneself – turns out to be really important for participation in the arts. Our preliminary findings also tell us that we shouldn't make judgments about singing based on familiar tunes that happen to be really hard.

As part of our work, our colleague Peter Pfordresher, of the University at Buffalo, shared some data with us on college students singing "Happy Birthday." Some of the students started the song high in their vocal range, more started lower in their vocal range, but many of them failed when it came to the big ascending leap: the third "happy birthday."
This is what makes this universal song so difficult for people around the world to sing. The third "happy birthday" has an octave leap, meaning a seven-note jump in the musical scale. It can be hard for people to manage, especially if you started too high in the beginning and have already topped out your range. Fun fact: "Happy Birthday" happens to have originated in Kentucky in the 1890s as a simpler song called "Good Morning to All."
The arrow points to the highest note of 'Happy Birthday,' which is the hardest note for many people to hit.

Another notoriously tough song to sing is the "Star-Spangled Banner." Most Americans have heard it and likely even sung it. You may have seen singer Demi Lovato perform it earlier this month at the Super Bowl, singing it well in the common key of A-flat. At last year's Super Bowl, Gladys Knight sang it beautifully and much lower, in a range that seemed to fit her voice perfectly.
No matter the key, like "Happy Birthday," the national anthem is just plain difficult. That's because it has a huge range; you have to sing high, low and everything in between. It has small intervals, or notes that are near each other on the musical scale, but it also has big skips upward – sometimes several in a row, such as the fourth, fifth and sixth notes in the song. And if you start the song with notes that are too high, well, often there's just no hope in hitting them all perfectly.
The arrows show the third, fourth, fifth and sixth notes in 'Happy Birthday.' Little steps upward and downward like these are generally easier to manage than the big leaps of the national anthem's beginning.

The social influence of singing
In a recent lab meeting, one research assistant asked, "What if the reason we sing 'Happy Birthday' wrong is because we hear it sung poorly so often?"
We don't yet know the answer to whether people learn songs incorrectly to begin with and if that's part of what makes the songs so hard. Add to this that the research says some children seem to sing better alone while others seem to sing better with other voices. This means that singing a more difficult song like "Happy Birthday" is actually a complex task with multiple variables, including what part of the range you try to sing it in and whether you or someone else has chosen the starting note for you.
Interestingly, people don't think they sing as well as they actually do. Children in one study who formed a "poor singer" experimental group were actually determined to be quite accurate pitch-wise once the researcher identified a good range for their singing voice and heard them sing alone. For adults who aren't sure about their own singing ability, chances are you're quite normal. Very few people have amusia, which means they can't hear changes in pitches and can't know if they're singing the right note or not. Likely, you're not one of them.
So what should we sing?
Thinking back to the karaoke room, I chose that duet because I was confident Bradley Cooper's part fit my range. (I even tried it at home first.)
So here is some advice from the researchers of the Happy Birthday Club: Don't judge your singing skills on familiar cultural songs; they're just not good measures of our singing abilities. Instead, target the songs and the artists that you like, and then try to identify the music that fits your range the best. If the range is good for you, you're much more likely to enjoy and find ease in singing it.
Nearly all pop songs have a very small range, so that may be a good place to start. Find the notes that fit you best, and give them a try at home or the next time you find yourself on a karaoke stage.

The Cybernetics of Neuro-Linguistic Programming
Curtis Brackenbury
16 July 2018
The hockey coach / athlete relationship can be visualized as a cybernetic loop in which meaning is constructed through reciprocal feedback. The first feedback loop enables a coach/athlete or team to learn a pattern of behavior that is appropriate for a particular environment. This is an observation action cycle in which observations of what is going on plus what has gone in similar situations informs decision making. The second feedback loop enables the coach/athlete or team to take a break in the action. It occurs because they recognized that the environment has changed and that in order for them to survive/win a new pattern of behavior is required immediately. They then revert back to the first loop.
The cybernetic loop is also used by coaches to not only create an environment that is conducive to learning but be flexible enough to see the athletes for who they are rather than being emotionally driven by what they expect them to be. This developmental coach athlete relationship provides a scaffolding of connection and nurturance while pushing the envelope to support further exploration. The athletes learns with the attuned coaches support that they can tolerate what initially appeared to be intolerable thus widen their window of tolerance. This adaptation leads to a positive change in their behavior traits and an opportunity to reach their goals.


= Populating your database = This chapter will guide you through the initial tasks needed to start using!HaCi. == Admin Password == Once you have completed the installation, you can login as user admin (without password). Your first task will then be setting a password for the admin user. Once you have done this you will be presented with the full menu. == Defining some users and groups ==!HaCi allows you to create users and groups. When adding a new user, you will be prompted for a password and a description, and also for his group associations. Groups are where you define [HaCiPermissions permissions] for your users. As a first step, let's create a readonly group, and assign a user to it. While the admin will always see the full menu, the users will see some of the entries grayed out, depending on their [HaCiPermissions permissions]. == Roots == A Root is sort of a placeholder that allows you to group your network logically. The first grouping that comes to mind is ipv4 and ipv6 (since you can't mix them in the internal tree structure anyway). So you may want to create two root, e.g. "My IPv4 Addresses" and "My IPv6 Addresses". Another useful grouping you could use is if you have address space from more than one RIR. So you could have "My RIPE v4 addys" and "My ARIN v4 addys". You can come up with several roots according to your needs. The software will also create some roots automatically when importing configurations. When you create a root, you will be prompted for a name and a description, and you will need to tick the IPv6 box if the root will be used for v6 addresses. You will also need to assign privileges to the user groups. The admin group can always read and write anything, but you can restrict privileges to the other users. Each node in the tree, from the root down to the single address, can have different privileges. == Importing your data == Your next step will be defining some networks to work on. If you felt the need for an address management tool, it's likely that you have an ''allocation'' from a RIR.!HaCi will let you pull in the data from RIPE database by using [HaCiASNImport ASN Routes] from the menu. This will find all inetnum and route objects tied to your AS number (and inet6num and route6 respectively for IPv6), and place them under a newly created root named after your AS number. Of course, you can define your topmost network manually and skip the above step if you don't have an AS number. blah blah yadda yadda === from router configs === === from dns === ---- [[HaCiOverview Overview]] [[WikiStart Start Page]] [[HaCiDayToDay Day to day operations]]

June 19, 2012 Intensive field work by researchers David General of the Palawan State University, The Philippines and Gary Alpert of the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University has led to the discovery of nine genera of ants that had never been recorded before in the Philippines. Another two new genera were discovered by other researchers in a remote mountain region.
The study was published as the 200th jubilee issue of the open access journal Zookeys.
About 30% of all currently known ant genera have been recorded in the Philippines, with a land area roughly the size of Italy or Arizona. At least 474 species of ants are known from the archipelago. In addition, several dozen new species remain to be formally described and given scientific names. "New species have been found even in highly disturbed places like university campuses," reported Mr. General.
"The complex blend of climatic diversity, geologic history and island structure of the country has likely led to rapid development of new ant genera and species, a phenomenon that deserves much further exploration," Dr. Alpert surmises.
The discoveries were made on a private reforestation project on the fringe of a single protected area, the Mt. Isarog Natural Park, on Luzon Island. Unfortunately, the study site was poached and all the trees have been cut down, wiping out 27 years of stewardship. Habitat destruction continues to threaten the ants of the Philippines and the plants and animals that depend on them.
Many islands, mountains and unique habitats remain unexplored for their ant communities.
Ants are very common and easily recognizable insects but are poorly studied in the region. This new study may spur interest and provide such a reference for people who want to study ants in the Philippines.

Recently an important line of research using laboratory experiments has provided a new potential reason for why we observe gender imbalances in labor markets: men are more competitively inclined than women. Whether, and to what extent, such preferences yield differences in naturally-occurring labor market outcomes remains an open issue. We address this question by exploring job-entry decisions in a natural field experiment where we randomized nearly 7,000 interested job-seekers into different compensation regimes. By varying the role that individual competition plays in setting the wage, we are able to explore whether competition, by itself, can cause differential job entry. The data highlight the power of the compensation regime in that women disproportionately shy away from competitive work settings. Yet, there are important factors that attenuate the gender differences, including whether the job is performed in teams, whether the job task is female-oriented, and the local labor market.

This edition includes a new and specially written introduction by James McGilvray, contextualizing the work for the twenty-first century. It has been made more accessible to a larger audience; all the French and German in the original edition has been translated, and the notes and bibliography have been brought up to date. The relationship between the original edition (published in 1966) and contemporary biolinguistic work is also explained. This challenging volume is an important contribution to the study of language and mind, and to the history of these studies since the end of the sixteenth century.


New Survey Gives the Numbers behind Laptop Thefts
Study points to low security for laptops, many stolen from within the company's facility
CREDANT Technologies, a data security and encryption software company, recently surveyed business professionals to get a little perspective on how secure laptops are. Perhaps not surprisingly, the numbers were somewhat dismal, pointing to unsecured devices and unsecured data. We'll let the numbers tell the story on this crime that plagues office facilities and business travelers:
29: percentage of all laptops stolen at the office
87: percentage of those laptops that had their emails on the computers
90: percentage of the stolen laptops that contained "sensitive and confidential" information
67: percentage that had other business information stored on their as well
3 out of 4: number of laptops that didn't meet regulatory compliance requirements for data encryption
21: percentage of respondents who used no security measures or data encryption on their laptops
10: percentage that used full-disk data encryption
The survey indicated that among the stolen laptops, some of these devices were locked to desks and secured with cables. One was even glued to the desk but still walked away.

This project will establish a primary care based model of memory assessment to increase the recognition, diagnosis and targeted case management of people living with dementia in Kent and Medway.
This will build upon the best practice within the exisitng memory clinics provided by Kent and Medway Partnerhips Trust (KMPT) by aligning KMPT staff to GP practices. This will support GPs to carry out pre-diagnositic tests and memory screening in accordance with an agreed diagnostic pathway. This project will support an education and training programme for both primary care and KMPT staff to underpin this transformation programme. Access to specialist memory clinics in secondary care will remain for people with complex needs and will provide specialist advice to GPs when required.
Kent and Medway collectively have a population of 1,727,600 and according to 2011 census figures the population is predicted that it will grow to 1843,100 based on ONS projections for 2010; with the number of people over the age of sixty five predicted to increase to 375, 200. The impact of this growth will see our predicted number of people with dementia rise to 27,395.
Primary Care professionals will undertake specialist training to learn how to assess, diagnose and prescribe for dementia. The training will provide the skills and confidence required to:
- Identify people with cognitive impairment or symptoms of dementia at an early stage
- To differentiate dementia, delirium and depression
- Safely prescribe pharmacological treatments for people with dementia, specifically cognitive enhancers under a shared care protocol with Consultant Psychiatrists.
- Carry out the full range of pre-diagnostic tests required to inform diagnosis
- Identify those at greater risk of developing dementia
- Identify common co-morbidity factors and to assess risk factors accurately
- When a diagnosis is made learning how to break a diagnosis well
- To increase their overall understanding and subsequent management of the condition
- Review medications in order to identify and minimise the use of drugs that can contribute to cognitive impairment and the rationalisation of anti-psychotic medications.
- Learn when and to whom to refer for structural imaging to rule out other pathologies
- Achieve a significant increase in the number of people receiving a formal diagnosis of dementia across Kent and Medway.
- Establish appropriate baseline tests consistent across the county to exclude the causes of other cognitive impairment including medication reviews
- Establish a shared understanding of what these tests are and who will undertake them
- Improve education and understanding and there will be recognition of the difference between dementia and delirium
- Establish agreed protocols of who makes the diagnosis and when
- Establish a diagnostic pathway with an agreed timely process for assessment and review
- Ensure all people with dementia and their carers receive post diagnostic support and information. This includes:
- Psychological support
- Advance and end of life care planning
- Information on support services
- A carers assessment to identify their personal need while maintaining their caring role
- An increase in GP Dementia registers and a system to generate regular reviews
- Develop a skilled workforce within Primary Care to identify, diagnose and manage dementia safely at a practice level.
- Improve the ability of this patient group to remain at home for as long as possible
- Promote the use of assistive technology and the benefits for people with dementia
- Develop a greater understanding of dementia within multi-disciplinary teams with a specific focus on end of life care planning.
- All people with dementia will have access to a pathway of care that delivers a rapid and competent specialist assessment.
- People with Alzheimer's disease benefit from early initiation of cholinesterase inhibitors where appropriate to delay the disease progression.
- People with dementia and their carers are supported and able to continue doing the things they enjoy for as long as possible through improved and targeted management of dementia care
- People with dementia and their families across Kent & Medway are able to make decisions and plan for their future. They make an informed decision and have an advance care plan so that there ends of life wishes are respected.
- Carers are well informed about dementia and the progression of the condition and have access to local support groups and services to enable individuals to share worries and develop coping strategies with support from health professionals.
- All people with dementia receive an early diagnosis that enables them to make informed choices.
- People with dementia and their carers are confident of the care and diagnosis received in the new primary care memory pathway.


How to Fold a Cardboard Corner Protector for Picture Frames
These cardboard picture frame corners are easily assembled in just seconds and can be removed and reused. They include a tab that allows them to lock on the moulding so they do not fall off when the picture frame is being transported.
 1. Put the corner, brown side up, in front of you on a flat surface, as shown above.
 2. Note the diagonal crease at the lower right and fold it up and over as far as it will go (Step (1)). It is the locking flap which usually keeps the corner from falling off your picture frame. You can release it after pre-folding it.
 3. Note in the upper right part of the corner there are three slots. This allows you to fold the corner three ways for three different thicknesses to fit your particular picture frame.
 4. Fold up (toward you) on the main crease (Step (2)) and then fold up on whichever slot is appropriate for your picture frame (Step (3)). You can release it after pre-folding it.
 5. You can then move to the left side of the corner and fold on the main crease (Step (5)) and then the corresponding crease to match the create you folded in Step (3) (Step (6)). You can release it after pre-folding it.
 6. You have now pre-folded the corner and are ready to finish its assembly.
 7. Fold up the lower right triangle (see Step (1)). Hold it down with your right thumb. While holding it down, fold down the upper right flap (see Steps (2) and (3)).
 8. While holding the previous two pieces in your right hand, use your left hand to fold over the lefthand flap over the first two pieces.
 9. Fold down (away from you) the small tag (Step (7)) and insert it in the slot which is under it.
 10. Presto! These are a lot of instructions for something that will seem very simple after you've folded a few of these corners.

You can make a lot of delicious things with mung beans, and this sweet dessert is one of them. It very delightful. And that's not all, beside that this dessert very delicious, it has a high nutrition value and very easy to make. But I guarantee you its worth to making this dessert and most of the time little children like this dessert. It's really good for them because of the nutrition value and they would like it because it's sweet to which comes from sugar syrup.
- ½ cup Mung bean (cut out waste powder, beans and nuts, and then rock out)
- ¼ cup Brown sugar.
- ½ cup White sugar (to taste the flavor).
- 4. 6 cups water.
- Separate the good beans and broken beans. Enter by bringing water mixing bowl.
- And poured into beans. Copy beans floating And the black pigment.
- Rinse beans thoroughly.
- The beans are roasted at a low heat. And the aromatic.
- Set water roasted peanut aroma and then only put in a water setting.
- When boiling water. Adjust light to low heat until beans are done cooking task a little soft.
- Add granulated sugar Season to taste with sweet sugar raise enough boiling down.
Green beans are boiled sugar suppress food expert Like to do a simple But the technique Tips & Tricks and much good if the cause is known as the menu or calf that is because I need to keep more always
- The time must be roasted with fire roasted mild or not done, the black is strictly prohibited. Because of cooking time. Bean will never soft. If cooking for a long time Maturation is not uniform.
- To see if cooked beans, cooking time do I have more persistent because the distance from every 5 minutes until done. Task becomes much money. Not very far apart. Always need to keep more.
- People are not very strong person because of turbid water, he does not.
- Impatient with sugar quickly before the beans are soft, not cooked. Brown will go nuts because the nuts, not a soft strap.
- Brown has resulted in the clear water.
