render() { return (
// Child to render inside of the div
); }
But! What if we want to render that child outside of the div somewhere else? That could be tricky because it breaks the convention that a component needs to render as a new element and follow a parent-child hierarchy. The parent wants to go where its child goes.
That's where React Portals come in. They provide a way to render elements outside the DOM hierarchy so that elements are a little more portable. It may not be a perfect analogy, but Portals are sort of like the pipes in Mario Bros. that transport you from the normal flow of the game and into a different region.
The cool thing about Portals? Even though they trigger their own events that are independent of the child's parent element, the parent is still listening to those events, which can be useful for passing events across an app.
We're going to create a Portal together in this post then make it into a re-usable component. Let's go!
The example we're building
Here's a relatively simple example of a Portal in action:
See the Pen React Portal by Kingsley Silas Chijioke (_USER_) on CodePen.
Toggling an element's visibility is nothing new. But, if you look at the code carefully, you'll notice that the outputted element is controlled by the button even though it is not a direct descendent of it. In fact, if you compare the source code to the rendered output in DevTools, you'll see the relationship:
So the outputted element's parent actually listens for the button click event and allows the child to be inserted even though it and the button are separate siblings in the DOM. Let's break down the steps for creating this toggled Portal element to see how it all works.
Step 1: Create the Portal element
The first line of a React application will tell you that an App element is rendered on the document root using ReactDOM. Like this;
We need to place the App element in an HTML file to execute it:
Same sort of thing with Portals. First thing to creating a Portal is to create a new div element in the HTML file.
This div will serve as our target. We're using _TAG_ as the ID, but it doesn't have to be that. Any component that gets rendered inside this target div will maintain React's context. We need to store the div as the value of a variable so we can make use of the Portal component that we'll create:
const portalRoot = document.getElementById("portal");
Looks a lot like the method to execute the App element, right?
Step 2: Create a Portal component
Next, let's set up the Portal as a component:
class Portal extends React.Component { constructor() { super(); // 1: Create a new div that wraps the component this.el = document.createElement("div"); } // 2: Append the element to the DOM when it mounts componentDidMount = () => { portalRoot.appendChild(this.el); }; // 3: Remove the element when it unmounts componentWillUnmount = () => { portalRoot.removeChild(this.el); }; render() { // 4: Render the element's children in a Portal const { children } = this.props; return ReactDOM.createPortal(children, this.el); }
Let's step back and take a look at what is happening here.
We create a new div element in the constructor and set it as a value to this.el. When the Portal component mounts, this.el is appended as a child to that div in the HTML file where we added it. That's the
line in our case.
The DOM tree will look like this.
// Portal, which is also portalRoot
// this.el
If you're new to React and are confused by the concept of mounting and unmounting an element, Jake Trent has a good explanation. TL;DR: Mounting is the moment the element is inserted into the DOM.
When the component unmounts we want to remove the child to avoid any memory leakage. We will import this Portal component into another component where it gets used, which is the the div that contains the header and button in our example. In doing so, we'll pass the children elements of the Portal component along with it. This is why we have this.props.children.
Step 3: Using the Portal
To render the Portal component's children, we make use of ReactDOM.createPortal(). This is a special ReactDOM method that accepts the children and the element we created. To see how the Portal works, let's make use of it in our App component.
But, before we do that, let's cover the basics of how we want the App to function. When the App loads, we want to display a text and a button — we can then toggle the button to either show or hide the Portal component.
class App extends React.Component { // The initial toggle state is false so the Portal element is out of view state = { on: false }; toggle = () => { // Create a new "on" state to mount the Portal component via the button this.setState({ on:!this.state.on }); }; // Now, let's render the components render() { const { on } = this.state; return ( // The div where that uses the Portal component child
Welcome to React
// The button that toggles the Portal component state // The Portal parent is listening for the event // Mount or unmount the Portal on button click { on?
This is a portal!
: null }
); } }
Since we want to toggle the Portal on and off, we need to make use of component state to manage the toggling. That's basically a method to set a state of on to either true or false on the click event. The portal gets rendered when on is true; else we render nothing.
This is how the DOM looks like when the on state is set to true.
When on is false, the Portal component is not being rendered in the root, so the DOM looks like this.
More use cases
Modals are a perfect candidate for Portals. In fact, the React docs use it as the primary example for how Portals work:
See the Pen Example: Portals by Dan Abramov (_USER_) on CodePen.
It's the same concept, where a Portal component is created and a state is used to append the its child elements to the Modal component.
We can even insert data from an outside source into a modal. In this example, the App component lists users fetched from an API using axios.
See the Pen React Portal 3 by Kingsley Silas Chijioke (_USER_) on CodePen.
How about tooltips? David Gilberston has a nice demo:
See the Pen React Portal Tooptip by David Gilbertson (_USER_) on CodePen.
J Scott Smith shows how Portals can be used to escape positioning:
He has another slick example that demonstrates inserting elements and managing state:
That's a wrap! Hopefully this gives you a solid base understanding of Portals as far as what they are, what they do, and how to use them in a React application. The concept may seem trivial, but having the ability to move elements outside of the DOM hierarchy is a handy way to make components a little more extensible and re-usable… all of which points to the core benefits of using React in the first place.

Yellow-Necked Mouse
Yellow Necked mouse Apodemus flavicollis
Yellow-necked mice are a more uncommon species and you may not be familiar with them. They have a nice temperament, although they are wild and do not make good pets.
They have a distinctive yellow patch of fur on their collars which gives them their name. You you think you have some on land near you, you should be able to identify them if you look carefully enough.
Let's take a look at how they live, survive, what they eat, and their other behaviours and habits.
Yellow Necked Mice Description
Yellow-necked mice are typically between 9-13 centimeters from their nose to their tails. With their tails also being between 9-13 centimeters in length.
They weigh around 20-30 grams fully grown. Making them bigger than your standard house mice, and distinctly different looking so you're not going to mistaken for one if you see one.
The top of their bodies have dark brown fur, and their underbellies have orange flanks. Their name yellow-neck comes from the yellow collar marking's they have. Their large eyes, long tails and large ears are other distinguishable characteristics.
Their scientific name is apodemus flavicollis.
Yellow-Necked Mice Habitat
The interesting thing about yellow-necked mice is that they stay very close to where they live. Usually not going outside of half a hectare. They will nest somewhere they have a food source and shelter.
They can live happily overlapping with other mice and their living areas. They can fight to defend territory, but they are largely placid and mild tempered.
They prefer woodlands and nature spots with lots of nature activity. Choosing to nest under ground level around stumps of trees and large hedges. They collect dry leaves, moss and grass to build up their nesting area.
Yellow-Necked Mice Behaviour
Yellow-necked mice do not hibernate like other mice, they are active all year round. During the winter it's not uncommon to find a group of them nesting together to stay warm in their nests.
They are incredibly competent climbers and can jump from tree branches and bushes with ease. Their burrows often become long and complex in construction over time, and they use different areas to keep food and sleep.
They will bring nesting materials into their burrows and make areas more comfortable. They are busy and interesting rodents to watch going about their business. Very good at finding food and storing it up.
They are nocturnal creatures and can see really well at night. To see these mice in their natural habitat is difficult and rare. You would have to go out of your way to catch them.
What Do Yellow-Necked Mice Eat
They eat mostly seeds, fruit, insects like spiders, larvae and other scraps in the wild. They are omnivores, so they will and can eat just about anything they come across.
They store their food in burrows they have made underground and can stockpile enough to cover winter months. Their diets are very similar to that of a wood mouse.
Yellow-Necked Mice Breeding
The breeding cycle for yellow-necked mice is February to October. With their peak breeding months are July and August. A female will typically have 2-3 litters, each with 3-10 young each year.
Gestation period lasts for 23 days. After three weeks the offspring are finished weaning and start becoming active. That distinctive yellow collar on their neck becomes visible after around two weeks just as they are opening their eyes.
Yellow-Necked Mouse Life Expectancy
Their life expectancy is between 2-3 years. It's hard to put an accurate number on their lifespan because they are at risk of so many predators in the wild. Foxes, owls, and weasels are among their main predators.
The yellow-necked mouse is good at evading predators with their agility, speed, and their tail skin is also detachable. If they are stressed or their tails are being held tight they can shed the skin to escape.
They also find harsh winters hard to survive, especially if they are a couple of years old. They need warmth and will huddle together with other mice to try and preserve some heat.

Project Foundry is an online project based learning (PBL) management system that allows students to design projects, keep track of deadlines and communicate with advisors and their parents what they have been working on throughout the day. Project Foundry is used by PBL schools throughout the country. Designed and built by practitioners who understand the project process, NLCS students can more easily keep on top of what academic requirements they must complete, how much credit they've earned, and access their transcripts, graduation standards, and projects.
Any given day, an NLCS student will use Project Foundry to:
- Develop a project proposal for a new project.
- Explain what she/he worked on through the day by logging about what he/she completed in a specific project.
- Write a journal entry to his/her advisor
- Examine what graduation standards still need to be completed.
Advisors, students, and even parents can have Project Foundry accounts to track progress! Email Nick at _EMAIL_ to request a parent account. Please include your first and last name, your email address, and your student's first and last name. Basically, students use Project Foundry to log at least hours every day, every week, and every year to stay on track. These hours turn into credits when students finalize projects or finish seminars with a passing grade.

6 1. Measure theory where 1 N Z := { n N : n Z} and _TAG_ denotes the cardinality of a finite set A. Taking Cartesian products, we see that |B| = lim N→∞ 1 N d #(B 1 N Zd) for any box B, and in particular, that |B1| +... + |Bk| = lim N→∞ 1 N d #(E 1 N Zd). Denoting the right-hand side as m(E), we obtain the claim (ii). Exercise 1.1.2. Give an alternate proof of Lemma 1.1.2(ii) by showing that any two partitions of E into boxes admit a mutual refinement into boxes that arise from taking Cartesian products of elements from finite collections of disjoint intervals. Remark 1.1.3. One might be tempted now to define the measure m(E) of an arbitrary set E Rd by the formula (1.1) m(E) := lim N→∞ 1 N d #(E 1 N Zd), since this worked well for elementary sets. However, this definition is not particularly satisfactory for a number of reasons. First, one can concoct examples in which the limit does not exist (Exercise!). Even when the limit does exist, this concept does not obey reasonable properties such as translation invariance. For instance, if d = 1 and E := Q [0, 1] := {x Q : 0 x 1}, then this definition give E a measure of 1, but would give the translate E + 2 := {x + √would 2 : x Q 0 x 1} a measure of zero. Nevertheless, the formula (1.1) will be valid for all Jordan measurable sets (see Exercise 1.1.13). It also makes precise an important intuition, namely that the continuous concept of measure can be viewed5 as a limit of the discrete concept of (normalised) cardinality. From the definitions, it is clear that m(E) is a non-negative real number for every elementary set E, and that m(E F ) = m(E) + m(F ) whenever E and F are disjoint elementary sets. We refer to the latter property as finite additivity by induction it also implies that m(E1... Ek) = m(E1) +... + m(Ek) 5Another way to obtain continuous measure as the limit of discrete measure is via Monte Carlo integration, although in order to rigorously introduce the probability theory needed to set up Monte Carlo integration properly, one already needs to develop a large part of measure theory, so this perspective, while intuitive, is not suitable for foundational purposes.

Routing a Synchronization Clock Along a Trigger Line
Last Modified: September 15, 2017
You can route full-speed or divided synchronization clocks through trigger lines using NI-Sync. With this technique, you can export a DDS clock using a PFI line and send full-speed or divided clocks along routes that are not accessible when you use clock terminals alone.
Setting and Dividing a Synchronization Clock
 1. Place Connect Trigger Terminals on the diagram.
 2. Wire a constant or control to source terminal and destination terminal.
 3. Select Synchronization Clock (Divided 2) for source terminal. This divides the synchronization clock by the value you set in the Clock Divisor 2 property of niSync Properties and uses the result as the source for this trigger. You can also select Synchronization Clock (Divided 1) or Synchronization Clock (Full Speed).
 4. Select a destination terminal for Connect Trigger Terminals:
 Routing a clock signal through a PXI_Trig line is not recommended. due to poor clock signal integrity caused by the topology of the PXI_Trig lines. Use PXI_Star, PXIe_DStar, or PFI lines instead.
 - Select a PXI_Star line to route the specified clock through the backplane trigger lines of the chassis.
 - Select a front panel terminal (PFI, PFI_LVDS) to route the specified clock through the front zone of the chassis to another PXI chassis, a physically connected module in the same chassis, or an external device.
 - Select PXIe_DStarB to route the specified clock from a system timing module to a peripheral slot.
 - Select PXIe_DStarC to route the specified clock from a peripheral slot to a system timing module.
 5. Place Disconnect Trigger Terminals on the diagram to free the trigger lines for other applications.
 6. Place Close on the diagram to end the NI-Sync session. The synchronization clock you set using niSync Properties is routed to a different location in the chassis using a trigger line.

Derivation of Equations for Compound Angles in the N-sided Box
This page is for those of you who are interested in how I arrived at the equations used in the N-sided box calculator. The equations can be found in the javascript section of the calculator's html file.
I found the original equations at the now defunct Scarletta site, and I became curious about how they were derived. I could not find any clues anywhere so I set out to derive them myself.
Mitered box and cutting planes
The assembled box is sitting with its inside bottom edge on the XY-plane, oriented such that one side is parallel with the Y-axis. That side's inside bottom corner is at the origin.
Two inputs define the angles of the box:
From n we can calculate the angle θ which separates the n cutting planes in the XY-plane.
θ = 360° / n
X-ray view of Triangle OPQ
Consider now the one piece that lays on the Y-axis. The triangle OPQ is on the inside surface of the board with sides h and y, and it includes the miter angle. The relationship between y and h is:
y / h = tan miter
The triangle OPQ projected on the XY-plane has angle θ/2 and sides x and y. The relationship between x and y is:
y / x = tan( θ/2 )
In the XZ-plane the distance OP is the height h of the board, which showed as x in the XY-plane. The relationship between h and x is:
x / h = cos φ
We solve for the miter angle by substituting from the three equations above:
miter = tan-1 y/h
= tan-1[ x tan( θ/2 ) / {x / cos( φ )} ]
= tan-1[ cos( φ ) tan( θ/2 ) ]
Surface normals for Bevel calculation
We define a unit surface normal s for the inner surface of the Y-axis piece, pointing into the box. If this side were perpendicular to the bottom then its normal would have the xyz-components <1, 0, 0>, but since the side is tilted outward by an angle φ w.r.t. horizontal, its components are really this:
s = < sin φ, 0, cos φ >
The cutting plane that includes the Origin has a unit normal c with the following components:
c = < sin θ/2, -cos θ/2, 0 >
We can find the angle β between the side surface and the cutting plane, which is the same as the angle between their normals. We find β using the geometric definition of the dot product:
s·c = |s| |c| cos β
...where |s|=1 and |c|=1
Solving for β:
β = cos-1( s·c )
= cos-1[ < sin φ, 0, cos φ > · < sin θ/2, -cos θ/2, 0 > ]
= cos-1[ sin( φ ) sin( θ/2 ) ]
The bevel angle is the complement to β.
bevel = 90° - cos-1[ sin( φ ) sin( θ/2 ) ]
= sin-1[ sin( φ ) sin( θ/2 ) ]

A search for the term "climate change" shows Copenhagen Sumit
A search for the term "famine"
News Globe lets you search the BBC News & Sport website and see the results mapped to the geographic location of the story on an animated globe which can be rotated to enable navigation of the results. It uses a customised RSS feed from BBC News.
This geo-visualization, connects you in a very immediate way to the location of the news story by providing further contextual information about it. For example, if we search for "FIFA World Cup" we find the majority of the BBC news stories originating in Europe or South Africa and very few in North America. So not only has News Globe produced a range of different news topics for us to read, it has also given us an indication of the level of interest in the topic across different cultures.
How to use it
News Globe is available immediately for use, either dive straight in, follow the instructions below, or watch the accompanying video that gives an overview of its different functions. You must have Adobe Flash player installed to use the project, it can be downloaded here.
If you would like to comment or feed back on this visualisation please do so on the blog entry
Launch News Globe //
Video walkthrough //
This video was created with screen capture software and shows the application being used.
How it was built //
The search results are returned in the form of an RSS feed from BBC News.
The contents of the Title tags in the rss xml are then sent off to Yahoo's geocoding API
If any place names are recognised by Yahoo it sends back the longitude and latitude co-ordinates. (It often gets confused and you'll find lots of mistakes, usually placed in North America). We originally tried to create this app using Atom feeds from BBC iPlayer but there were too few place names and Yahoo was making some really bad guesses with the data.
Meanwhile a rotating globe with moon (please don't complain that the moon's position is wrong, it's only there for effect) was created using the Alpha version of Papervision 3D 2 (Great White).
An algorithm converts the Cartesian co-ordinates returned by Yahoo and converts them into spherical co-ordinates and it's then easy to use papervision to plot a marker on the correct spot on the map.
Rolling over the markers give you some information about the news article plotted.
Clicking on the markers will take you to the news article on bbc.co.uk.
While this all looks pretty cool lots of the work was done by other people:
Most notably Mark Waters and his excellent article on Geocoding in Flash. The majority of the Papervision code was taken from his Flex source files.
Credit should also go to the programmers who created Papervision 3d, the authors of the tweener class, the authors of the AS3 tool tips component, the AS3 preloader class written by Marco Di Giuseppe, and _URL_ who created the earth texture map.
What we like about this project is the fact that is uses so many resources from the web (mostly in the form of AS3 classes) and shows how visualisations can be created in a modular way with code from all over the place.

Lesson plans relating to this project, along with printable resources and a memory bank for schools, are available on the Dunkeswell War Stories website.
Lesson plans and printable resources are suitable for children of Key Stage 2 (KS2) and beyond. Also available is the schools video bank suitable for classroom use for Key Stages 2 & 3.
Looking at the local iron-working industry through the Iron Age, Romano-British, Saxon and Medieval periods and modern archaeology, these resources supporting the Key Stage 2 (KS2) history curriculum. The topic connects local heritage with wider developments in history and technology. The resources were developed as part of our Metal Makers project in collaboration with All Saints Primary School near Axminster.
Hembury Hillfort, near Payhembury in the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), is an excellent site to use to introduce Key Stage 1 (KS1) children to life in the Iron Age. For Key Stage 2 (KS2) pupils, Hembury can be used as a basis to demonstrate how archaeological enquiry can be used to investigate local prehistoric sites.
These lesson plans and resources provide inspiration for both KS1 and KS2 lessons.
These resources introduce preschool and Key Stage 1 (KS1) children to ancient iron-working in the Blackdown Hills. The theme is presented through a story set in the Iron Age, Noni the Blacksmith[CG1]. The downloadable lesson ideas contain suggestions on art, craft, movement and play activities to accompany the story. The resources were developed as part of our Metal Makers[CG2] project in collaboration with Hemyock preschool and primary School.

Toyger Cat
Toyger Cat Care
Toyger cat care, 8 things to consider. Before getting a toyger cat, make sure you know what you are letting yourself in for. Despite, their perceived independence, toyger cats do need care and looking after. And, as with any pet there are expenses.
Your areas of responsibility include: diet, environment, exercise and protection from dangerous substances and accidents. Such as, communicable diseases that could be prevented by vaccination or by isolation from other cats. Other cats are potential sources of infections.
Toyger Cat Care Points to Consider
1. Your Toyger Cat can live for up to 20 years. Can you offer continued care, love and attention for that period of time? Remember, as your toyger cat gets older, so do you. They need care as they age, just like we do. So owning a toyger cat or any cat requires some thought not just an emotional reaction right now.
2. Where will you be in 5, 10 or 15 years time? Will there be room in your life to care for your toyger cat?
3. Can you afford the care and the veterinary fees if your toyger cat gets ill? Yearly check-ups are the minimum for your toyger cat. Your toyger will need regular vaccinations and should, ideally, be neutered.
4. You will need to rid it of fleas, worms and other routine health care maintenance. These all cost time and money.
toyger cat care5. Who will care for it when you go on holidays or visiting friends? Catteries cost money and there may not always be friends that can care for your pet.
6. Toyger cat care includes feeding which is another expense. Allow a minimum of $10 per week. Can you afford this expense throughout the life of your cat?
7. Additional care items may be needed: litter tray, bedding, bowls, collars, cat toys and special treats. Have you got the room and the money to provide these?
8. Other toyger cat care additional needs are treatments. For example: a long haired cat may need regular grooming. Is this a commitment you are prepared to provide when caring for a toyger cat? Have you considered the vet bills. These can be considerable.
Toyger cat care is a lifelong job. We all want cats to have a good home and a good life. However, make sure that you can care for your toyger cat, before you buy.

Loads In Buildings:
In the design of any RCC structure, calculation of the upcoming load is the first and foremost step. The design load is considered for its design life. In this post, I will illustrate the basics of the design loads considered while designing of structures & the basic mathematics involved in their calculation.
Types of building loads:
The following given loads are present In a typical residential building as discussed below-
- Dead Load– All the load of the dead or non-moving/stationary/fixed elements of the building fall in this category. Some examples of dead load are the weight of walls, the weight of roof/floor finishes etc. Self-weight of structural members such as beams, columns, Footings & RCC slabs etc are also taken as dead-load. The calculation of live loads has to be done by taking properties of the material & the dimensions of the element considered.
- Live Load– ll the moving loads due to human use or furniture or any other mechanical equipment. For all general categories live loads are defined in Indian Code IS 875 Part-3. Rest if any shall be calculated as per the requirement.
- Dynamic Load – Apart from dead & live loads a building structure is also subjected to the application of dynamic load. Dynamic loads are the loads in which the value & nature of the application of force is not constant throughout & is subjected to changes as per the conditions governing the forces. Forces due to wind, earthquake, traffic or heavy machinery (such as blowers or pumps) fall under this category.
(Also Read: Different Types of Failure of Foundation)
- Self-weight– It is the weight of the frame or the individual weight of the structural elements such as Beams, Columns & Slabs. In computer programs such as STAAD Pro inbuilt capability is there which allows the program to calculate the self-weight of the elements automatically in accordance with the shape, size & member dimensions.
Example: Below given are the examples for manual calculation of self-weight of the structural elements.
- Beam: Let it be of any shape Rectangular/square/tee/trapezoid anything, for calculation of weight, use the given formulaWeight of member = cross-section area of member x length of member x RCC density
For a 0.3 m wide 0.45 m deep beam section of 5 m clear length & material density = 25 kN/m3 (for RCC), the weight will beWeight of beam = (0.3 x 0.45) x 5 x 25 = 16.875 kN
The above calculated weight of 16.875 kN is the total weight which can be further converted into Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL) by dividing the total weight by member length.
U.D.L in the beam = 16.875/5 = 3.375 kN/m
- Column: Same as explained above the self-weight of a column can be calculated only the terminology of member length will be changed to member height & the weight of column will be calculated as point load only its conversion in UDL is not required.
- Slab: RCC slabs, the weight of roof slabs is applied as uniform pressure in kN/m2. For analysis purpose, it is we consider a 1 m x 1 m square section & calculate the volume of the RCC & then the same is multiplied with the density for the derivation of pressure in kN/m2.
Weight of slab = (1 x 1 x slab thickness) x RCC density
In the above formula as (1 x 1) doesn't affect the calculation thus, it can be further simplified asWeight of slab = slab thickness x RCC density
For 0.15 m thick slab the calculation will be as followsWeight of slab = 0.15 x 25 = 3.75 kN/m2
In the above calculation of RCC slab weight, further additional load due to floor finishes are included generally for stone/cement floorings 0.75 kN/m2 to 1.5 kN/m2 is considered.
Distribution of slab load on supporting beams:
Depending upon the arrangement of beams (square or rectangular) triangular or trapezoidal shape distribution is carried out. For example (refer fig below) in case of a rectangular slab of 6 m x 4 m, the longer side beams spanning between A-B & D-C will carry a load of the corresponding trapezoidal portion. Whereas the shorter span beams spanning between A-D & B-C will support the weight of roof slab coming from the corresponding triangular region.
Load on 6 m span = area of trapezoid x thickness of slab x density
Load on 6 m span = 8 x 0.15 x 25 = 30 kN.
Thus, U.D.L = 30 / member length = 30/6 = 5 kN/m.
Load on 4 m span = area of triangle x thickness of slab x density
Load on 4 m span = 4 x 0.15 x 25 = 15 kN = 15 / member length = 15/4 = 3.75 kN/m
Above discussed was the case of a rectangular slab. In the case of the square slab, the slab plan is divided into 4 number of equal triangles. Then the load for the same is transferred to the corresponding beam members.
- Walls: Generally in building construction brick walls of single brick (0.115 m thick) & double brick (0.230 m thick) is used, a load of brick walls is calculated as followsWeight of wall (In kN/m) = Height of wall x thickness of wall x density of brick/stone masonry
For 0.23 m thick wall of 3.2 m clear height, the load will beWeight of wall (In kN/m) = 3.2 x 0.230 x 22 = 16.192 kN/m
The load of 16.192 kN/m is applicable in the form of UDL on the beam supporting the brick wall. In the above calculation, brick wall density considered is 22 kN/m3.
Live loads or imposed loads as per building type & occupancy classification shall be provided as per Indian Code IS 875 Part-2 in table-1.
Mainly, the following dynamic forces are subjected to RCC buildings-
- Wind Force: Wind load is calculated in line with the provisions of IS : 875 (Part-3).
- Seismic/Earthquake Force: Seismic load is calculated in line with the provisions of IS 1893: 2016.
Methodology for calculation of wind forces & earthquake forces will be discussed in a separate post, keep following.
Hope above given explanation helps in understanding the fundamentals for determination of dead & live loads as per Indian Code.

Book Title: A Guide to Crisis Intervention (Book Only)
Publisher: Brooks Cole
Author: Kristi Kanel
This fifth edition of Dr. Kristi Kanel's A GUIDE TO CRISIS INTERVENTION covers the fundamentals of situational and developmental crises, how they occur, and how they have been managed since the 1940s. Kanel discusses traditional counseling models as they relate to crisis intervention, and shows how they have been incorporated into her model-the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention-that is used by both paraprofessionals and professionals. Presented in detail, the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention is ideal for use in any mental health setting and with any individual (from any population) in a crisis situation. The text provides detailed examples of specific crisis situations, including developmental crises, trauma crises, post traumatic stress disorder crises (PTSD), crises of personal victimization, substance abuse crises, and crises related to loss, terminal and serious illness, and disabilities. New chapters discuss veterans' issues; sexual assault and rape; and ethical, legal, and professional issues. The author also explores suicide assessment and the use of the Mental Status Exam. Every chapter offers case vignettes to aid students in practicing the skills presented in the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention.


Title: High Resolution Absorption Spectroscopy on Rare Earth Doped Insulating Materials: BaY2F8 and YAl3(BO3)4 Single Crystals and Sol-gel Silica Glasses

Abstract: The electronic energy transitions occurring in rare earth (RE) ions within the intraconfigurational 4f shell give rise at low temperature to very narrow absorption lines. Even if the shielded 4f shells are weakly coupled with the surrounding, the RE electronic configuration represents a very sensitive probe for the crystal field at the impurity site. Temperature dependent high-resolution absorption measurements can then provide a deep insight into the local crystal field and into the ion interaction with the host lattice. Examples of high resolution Fourier transform spectroscopy measurements performed both on crystalline materials (namely fluoride and borate single crystals) and on sol-gel silica glasses containing nanocrystals are provided and discussed. Correlated analysis based on experimental data and crystal-field calculations is presented.

I would have expected it to be alphabetical. But apparently it's not. What's the formula, here?

As _USER_ has stated the list is returned to you in a semi-random order via readdir(). I'll just add the following.
The list returned is what I would call the directory order. On older filesystems, the order is often the creation order that the file entries in the directory's table were added. There is of course a caveat to this, when a directory entry is deleted, this entry is then recycled, so any subsequent files that are stored will replace the previous entry, so the order will no longer by based solely on creation time.
On modern filesystems where directory data structures are based on a search tree or hash table, the order is practically unpredictable.
Poking at the files created when you run your touch command reveals the following inodes were assigned.
$ stat --printf="%n -- %i\n" dir/*
dir/1 -- _PHONE_
dir/2 -- _PHONE_
dir/3 -- _PHONE_
dir/4 -- _PHONE_
dir/5 -- _PHONE_
dir/6 -- _PHONE_
dir/7 -- _PHONE_
dir/8 -- _PHONE_
dir/a -- _PHONE_
dir/b -- _PHONE_
dir/c -- _PHONE_
dir/d -- _PHONE_
dir/e -- _PHONE_
dir/f -- _PHONE_
dir/g -- _PHONE_
dir/h -- _PHONE_
dir/i -- _PHONE_
dir/j -- _PHONE_
dir/k -- _PHONE_
dir/l -- _PHONE_
dir/m -- _PHONE_
dir/n -- _PHONE_
dir/o -- _PHONE_
dir/p -- _PHONE_
So we can see that the brace expansion used by touch creates the filenames in alphabetical order and so they're assigned sequential inode numbers when written to the HDD. (That however does not influence the order in the directory.)
Running your tar command multiple times would seem to indicate that there is an order to the list, since running it multiple times yields the same list each time. Here I've run it 100 times and then compared the runs and they're all identical.
$ for i in {1..100};do tar cJvf file.tar.xz dir/ > run${i};done
$ for i in {1..100};do cmp run1 run${i};done
If we strategically delete say dir/e and then add a new file dir/ee we can see that this new file has taken the place that dir/e occupied prior in the directories entries table.
$ rm dir/e
$ touch dir/ee
Now let's keep the output from one of the for loop above, just the 1st one.
$ mv run1 r1A
Now if we re-run the for loop that will run the tar command 100 times again, and compare this second run with the previous one:
$ sdiff r1A run1
dir/ dir/
dir/c dir/c
dir/f dir/f
dir/e | dir/ee
dir/o dir/o
dir/2 dir/2
We notice that dir/ee has taken dir/e's place in the directories table.

+1 nicely done sir. – SparKot Mar 18 '14 at 5:19
I think it's filesystem dependent. I can imagine a btree-type filesystem sorting them based on order of file hash or some such (I have a sense the old ReiserFS orders them differently, since that filesystem dynamically creates inodes) – samiam Mar 18 '14 at 7:39
_USER_ - right, this answer claims that the 'directory order' is 'the creation order that the file entries in the directory's table were added' and then it itself shows fragments of the tar file contents showing that this is not true. Many filesystems, including current Linux ext* filesystems, use trees and/or hashes in their directory structures, not simple sequential tables like some older filesystems. – Michał Politowski Mar 18 '14 at 8:44
_USER_ ls -f or ls -U or find -maxdepth 1 – Wumpus Q. Wumbley Mar 18 '14 at 12:27
_USER_ the -f flag comes from ancient Unix. Its purpose was to be fast. It disabled sorting, the skipping of dotfiles, and a few other things. The -U flag is a GNU innovation which allows you to disable sorting without any other side effects. – Wumpus Q. Wumbley Mar 18 '14 at 15:57
readdir() basically. When tar finds out what files are in a directory, it directly asks the kernel for a file listing via opendir() followed by readdir(). readdir() does not return the files in any particular order; the way the files are ordered depends on the file system being used by the Linux kernel.
There, alas, isn't an option for tar to sort files in subdirectories (adding one is left as an exercise for the reader).

I was wondering if it retrieves them based on their inode's value? – slm Mar 18 '14 at 4:23
_USER_ The f_op->iterate call that glibc readdir() eventually filters down to via getdents() is mapped to a filesystem specific implementation. I can't see anything at a higher level that reorders the dirent's the fs implementation returns. – Matt Mar 18 '14 at 12:56
_USER_ No, I've never heard of a filesystem where the inode value would have an influence on the directory order. – Gilles Mar 18 '14 at 22:34

Rethinking the Middle East's Informal Gathering Places
Rethinking the Middle East's Informal Gathering Places
Informal learning is a critical part of our lives. Yet, many Arab cities no longer offer platforms for impromptu intellectual and social gatherings.
Malls have become the main hangout places in the Gulf, but they're too high profile to allow for a real creative environment to bloom. The few bookstores in the region are often too formal to make room for vibrant conversations and the kinds of gatherings that lead to innovative ideas. Arabic cafés, too, are not suited for intellectual intercourse – what with the half-dozen glaring TV screens, loud music, and foggy air.
Yet, those "third places" that serve as an intellectual, creative, and political fora, are the foundation of a proactive and industrious community. Umar ibn al-Khatab famously established a space – known as al butayha – where people could engage in free discussions. For centuries in Baghdad, poetry gatherings and various classes took place at shops all across the city, and "there was hardly any part of the day when no classes were being held somewhere in the city", says Munir-ud-Din Ahmed author of Muslim Education.
Third places have always been an essential component of healthy communities due to their natural ability to give birth to vibrant, fertile, and distinct atmospheres, and because they quench our thirst for exchanging ideas, learning, and even creating.
Caféa Arab is a great example; Wamda contributor Ahmed Al Majid describes attending "a documentary screening by an upcoming Saudi filmmaker, an open discussion by an established artist, and a fundraiser for a young Saudi woman working on a project to provide clean water for Ghanaian orphans", all in this "modest venue".
So what constitutes the DNA of these spaces, and how can we proliferate them in our communities?
In his remarkable survey The Great Good Place, Ray Oldenburg describes third places as "unimpressive looking" neutral spaces where "conversation is the primary activity and the major vehicle for the display and appreciation of human personality and individuality."
The mood of the third place is a playful one, the décor is usually simple and psychologically inviting; for example, wooden tables and chairs generally have a homey feel that inspires longer and more relaxed discussions. High ceilings promote a creative ambiance while low ceilings aid in performing detail-oriented tasks that requires focus (it's useful to know some basic design principles when talking about the interior design of third spaces).
I cannot overemphasize the importance of not having televisions and loud music in third places – and don't even get me started on the hookah. Again, the quintessential element of the third space is conversation. Any distractions that take away from the "spiritual tonic" of the third space reduce its effectiveness in bringing out the best in the individuals who are present. Oldenburg mentions that "in some countries television broadcasting [was] suspended one night a week so that people will not abandon the habit of getting out of their homes" and mingling with one another.
But let's push the idea of the third place even further.
Writing, not just Reading
Two of the major problems of our age are the absence of a sense of agency (especially among youth) and the overwhelming spread of consumerism as part of the fabric of many societies. And most of us are passive consumers who, in reality, have little knowledge or say about the inner workings of the devices we use.
Being able to use technology does not make one fluent with technology. MIT Professor Mitchel Resnick says "'Digital fluency' should mean designing, creating, and remixing, not just browsing, chatting, and interacting." But we rarely find a group of students tinkering with a device in a coffee shop or a workshop.
Many of the entrepreneurial efforts and discussions in the MENA region are presently focused on creating better online tools and services. Yes, in fifteen years the Arab Digital Generation will form 38 percent of the total population of the Middle East, but I fear that most of this group will only be able to "read" but not "write". Little work is being done to encourage young Arabs to experiment, make things, and design their own technologies. Dale Dougherty once proposed that libraries should purchase Arduino kits and make them available for everyone to borrow – like books –, play with, and then return.
How is this related to third places? When coffeehouses first emerged in the Middle East and in Europe, many of them had books that one could take off the shelf and read while sipping a cup of coffee or waiting for a friend. Around-the-corner bookstores always had areas where a few people could chat. Nevertheless, learning happens when we imagine and build things, and this is why we need to rethink the traditional third place and make room for more hands-on activities that could spark creativity and innovation.
In the end, what is really going to decide whether or not the Arab Awakening has succeeded is if we transform the role individuals play in the community. Maybe entrepreneurs should focus less on developing digital services and more on creating physical spaces for their local communities; who knows what new innovations could come of it?
When people are given the space to exchange ideas and create, they gain true ownership of their society and contribute in a meaningful way to its intellectual development. That's why we need real spaces: to catalyse what physiologist Walter B. Canon describes as "the fecundity of aggregation", or a collective and continuous creation of new ideas.

finds the peak value from each sensor in 1 minute event time windows, and producing a stream of Tuples containing (key, end-of-window-timestamp, max_value).
ProcessWindowFunction Example #
DataStream input =...
 .keyBy(x -> x.key)
 .process(new MyWastefulMax());
public static class MyWastefulMax extends ProcessWindowFunction<
 SensorReading, // input type
 Tuple3, // output type
 String, // key type
 TimeWindow> { // window type
 public void process(
 String key,
 Context context,
 Iterable events,
 Collector> out) {
 int max = 0;
 for (SensorReading event : events) {
 max = Math.max(event.value, max);
 out.collect(Tuple3.of(key, context.window().getEnd(), max));
A couple of things to note in this implementation:
 - All of the events assigned to the window have to be buffered in keyed Flink state until the window is triggered. This is potentially quite expensive.
 - Our ProcessWindowFunction is being passed a Context object which contains information about the window. Its interface looks like this:
public abstract class Context implements {
 public abstract W window();
 public abstract long currentProcessingTime();
 public abstract long currentWatermark();
 public abstract KeyedStateStore windowState();
 public abstract KeyedStateStore globalState();
windowState and globalState are places where you can store per-key, per-window, or global per-key information for all windows of that key. This might be useful, for example, if you want to record something about the current window and use that when processing a subsequent window.
Incremental Aggregation Example #
DataStream input =...
 .keyBy(x -> x.key)
 .reduce(new MyReducingMax(), new MyWindowFunction());
private static class MyReducingMax implements ReduceFunction {
 public SensorReading reduce(SensorReading r1, SensorReading r2) {
 return r1.value() > r2.value()? r1 : r2;
private static class MyWindowFunction extends ProcessWindowFunction<
 SensorReading, Tuple3, String, TimeWindow> {
 public void process(
 String key,
 Context context,
 Iterable maxReading,
 Collector> out) {
 SensorReading max = maxReading.iterator().next();
Notice that the Iterable will contain exactly one reading – the pre-aggregated maximum computed by MyReducingMax.
Late Events #
By default, when using event time windows, late events are dropped. There are two optional parts of the window API that give you more control over this.
You can arrange for the events that would be dropped to be collected to an alternate output stream instead, using a mechanism called Side Outputs. Here is an example of what that might look like:
OutputTag lateTag = new OutputTag("late"){};
SingleOutputStreamOperator result = stream.
DataStream lateStream = result.getSideOutput(lateTag);
You can also specify an interval of allowed lateness during which the late events will continue to be assigned to the appropriate window(s) (whose state will have been retained). By default each late event will cause the window function to be called again (sometimes called a late firing).
By default the allowed lateness is 0. In other words, elements behind the watermark are dropped (or sent to the side output).
For example:
When the allowed lateness is greater than zero, only those events that are so late that they would be dropped are sent to the side output (if it has been configured).
Surprises #
Some aspects of Flink's windowing API may not behave in the way you would expect. Based on frequently asked questions on the flink-user mailing list and elsewhere, here are some facts about windows that may surprise you.
Sliding Windows Make Copies #
Sliding window assigners can create lots of window objects, and will copy each event into every relevant window. For example, if you have sliding windows every 15 minutes that are 24-hours in length, each event will be copied into 4 * 24 = 96 windows.
Time Windows are Aligned to the Epoch #
Just because you are using hour-long processing-time windows and start your application running at 12:05 does not mean that the first window will close at 1:05. The first window will be 55 minutes long and close at 1:00.
Note, however, that the tumbling and sliding window assigners take an optional offset parameter that can be used to change the alignment of the windows. See Tumbling Windows and Sliding Windows for details.
Windows Can Follow Windows #
For example, it works to do this:
 .keyBy(t -> t.key)
 .window()
 .reduce()
 .windowAll()
 .reduce();
You might expect Flink's runtime to be smart enough to do this parallel pre-aggregation for you (provided you are using a ReduceFunction or AggregateFunction), but it's not.
The reason why this works is that the events produced by a time window are assigned timestamps based on the time at the end of the window. So, for example, all of the events produced by an hour-long window will have timestamps marking the end of an hour. Any subsequent window consuming those events should have a duration that is the same as, or a multiple of, the previous window.
No Results for Empty TimeWindows #
Windows are only created when events are assigned to them. So if there are no events in a given time frame, no results will be reported.
Late Events Can Cause Late Merges #
Session windows are based on an abstraction of windows that can merge. Each element is initially assigned to a new window, after which windows are merged whenever the gap between them is small enough. In this way, a late event can bridge the gap separating two previously separate sessions, producing a late merge.

Significance and Use
The relative durability of materials in natural exposures can be very different depending on the location of the exposure because of differences in ultraviolet (UV) radiation, time of wetness, temperature, pollutants, and other factors. Therefore, it cannot be assumed that results from one exposure in a single location will be useful for determining relative durability in a different location. Exposures in several locations with different climates which represent a broad range of anticipated service conditions are recommended.
Because of year-to-year climatological variations, results from a single exposure test cannot be used to predict the absolute rate at which a material degrades. Several years of repeat exposures are needed to get an "average" test result for a given location.
Solar ultraviolet radiation varies considerably as a function of time of year. This can cause large differences in the apparent rate of degradation in many polymers. Comparing results for materials exposed for short periods (less than one year) is not recommended unless materials are exposed at the same time in the same location.
Defining exposure periods in terms of total solar or solar-ultraviolet radiant energy can reduce variability in results from separate exposures. Solar ultraviolet measurements are typically made using instruments which record broadband UV (for example, 295 to 385 nm) or narrow band UV, as described in 7.2.4 and 7.2.5. An inherent limitation in solar-radiation measurements is that they do not reflect the effects of temperature and moisture, which may also influence the rate or type of degradation.
The design of the exposure rack, the location of the specimen on the exposure rack, and the type or color of adjacent specimens can affect specimen temperature and time of wetness. In order to minimize variability caused by these factors, it is recommended that test specimens, control specimens, and any applicable weathering reference material be placed on a single test panel or on test panels placed adjacent to each other during exposure.
It is strongly recommended that at least one control material be part of any exposure evaluation. When used, the control material shall meet the requirements of Terminology G113, and be of similar composition and construction compared to test specimens. It is preferable to use two control materials, one with relatively good durability and one with relatively poor durability. Unless otherwise specified, use at least two replicate specimens of each test and control material being exposed. Control materials included as part of a test shall be used for the purpose of comparing the performance of test materials relative to the controls.

In this talk we introduce a notion of functions of fractal bounded variation. Here, the sup-norm of test functions as used in the classical definition is replaced by the Hoelder norm with respect to some exponent. Characteristic functions of domains with fractal bounderies are particular examples that belong to this class. Among a characterization in terms of currents, we state some properties that naturally extend those of classical BV functions such as higher integrability, decomposition into Hoelder functions and push forwards.

About Patrick Ferguson
Major Patrick Ferguson (1744 – October 7, 1780) was a Scottish officer in the British Army, early advocate of light infantry and designer of the Ferguson rifle. He is best known for his service in the 1780 military campaign of Charles Cornwallis, in which he aggressively recruited Loyalists and harshly treated Patriot sympathisers. His behaviour led to a militia uprising against him, and he was killed in the Battle of Kings Mountain, where he was the only regular army officer present from either side of the conflict. His body was mistreated in the aftermath of the battle by the victorious Patriot forces before burial.
Early life
Patrick Ferguson was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on May 25 (Old Style)/June 4 (New Style) 1744, the second son and fourth child of advocate James Ferguson of Pitfour (who was raised to the judges' bench as a Senator of the College of Justice, so known as Lord Pitfour after 1764) and his wife Anne Murray, a sister of the literary patron Patrick Murray, 5th Lord Elibank.
Through his parents, he knew a number of major figures in the Scottish Enlightenment, including philosopher and historian David Hume, on whose recommendation he read Samuel Richardson's novel Clarissa when he was fifteen, and the dramatist John Home. He had a large number of first cousins through his mother's family: these included Sir William Pulteney, 5th Baronet, Commodore George Johnstone, and Sir James Murray (later Murray-Pulteney).
Seven Years' War
After returning home in 1772, he took part in light infantry training, coming to the attention of General Howe, and developed the Ferguson rifle, a breech-loading flintlock weapon based on Chaumette's earlier system.
American War of Independence
In 1777, he went to serve in the American War of Independence with his experimental rifle corps. However, after initial success, he was shot through the right elbow-joint at the Battle of Brandywine on September 11, 1777. Shortly before, he had had the chance to shoot a prominent American officer, accompanied by another in distinctive hussar dress, but decided not to do so, as he had his back to him and was unaware of his presence. He was told in hospital by a surgeon, who had been speaking to some American casualties, that General Washington had been in the area at the time. Ferguson wrote that, even if the officer were him, he did not regret his decision. However, the officer's identity remains uncertain, and the presence of the aide in hussar dress has led to suggestions that he may have been Count Casimir Pulaski. For some months, he lived under threat of amputation, and also received news of his father's death. He eventually recovered, although his right arm was permanently crippled. He resumed his career in May 1778, under the command of Sir Henry Clinton.
In October 1778, he was sent to lead a raid to suppress privateers who had been seizing British ships and were based around the Little Egg Harbor River in what is known as the Battle of Chestnut Neck. Shortly after this raid, Ferguson was notified that a detachment of Pułaski's troops was located nearby. Ferguson marched his troops to the site of the infantry outpost, which comprised fifty men a short distance from the main encampment. At first light, Ferguson ordered the bayonet charge; only five of his quarry were taken alive in what was called the Little Egg Harbor massacre. Ferguson's own account (under the pen-name Egg-Shell) conveys his dismay at Pułaski's lack of preparations and lack of look-outs. Pułaski eventually led his mounted troops (Pułaski's Legion) forward, causing Ferguson to retreat to his boats minus a few men that had been captured.
After winning several victories over American forces, Cornwallis occupied Charlotte, North Carolina in the summer of 1780. He subsequently divided his army and gave command of one section to Ferguson. Ferguson's wing consisted of Loyalists he had recruited to fight for the British cause. When Ferguson publicly threatened to invade the mountains beyond the legal limit on westward settlement unless the colonists there abandoned the cause of American independence, the mountaineers organised an army to fight Ferguson at King's Pinnacle, an isolated ridge on the North Carolina-South Carolina border. On October 7, 1780 the two armies met in the famous Battle of Kings Mountain. The battle went badly for the Loyalists, and during the fighting, Ferguson was shot from his horse. He was dragged with his foot still in the saddle to the rebel side. When an American walked over for his surrender, he drew his pistol and shot the American as a last act of defiance. His corpse was found with eight musket holes in his body. The Patriots then stripped it of its clothes and urinated on it. He was buried near the site of his fall. It was claimed – according to Patriot accounts – that his corpse was ill-used before burial in an oxhide.
A lifelong bachelor, he was buried with one of his mistresses, 'Virginia Sal', who was also killed in the battle. In the 1920s the U.S. government erected a marker at his gravesite, which today is a part of the Kings Mountain National Military Park, a unit of the National Park Service.
Cultural references
In the 1835 novel Horse-Shoe Robinson by John Pendleton Kennedy, a historical romance set against the background of the Southern campaigns in the American War of Independence, Ferguson appears and interacts with the fictional characters in the book, en route to the climactic scene in which he is killed in the Battle of Kings Mountain.
In Louis L'amour's 1973 book The Ferguson Rifle, Ferguson stops by a poor family home on his way to the Battle of King's Mountain and kindly gives his personal copy of the Ferguson rifle to a boy who later carries it West. Ferguson is shown to be a gentleman who displays all the appropriate social graces to a lady (the boy's ill mother) and compassion to a family in need by giving up his personal firearm asking only that the boy keep it always, and never use it against the king. (p7)
In Steve Ressel's 2010 novel "State Of One", Ferguson is the main antagonist against James Pariah, a former soldier under Ferguson's command during the Battle of the Brandywine in 1777. Ferguson had been resurrected as a golem by the Leeds Witch with hopes of raising a golem army of similar soldiers, all armed with Ferguson rifles, to destroy the ratification of the US Constitution in September 1787. James Pariah cleaves to his old Ferguson rifle, sometimes referring to it as his wife, having modified it with special actions such as a spring-loaded knife in the stock.

why is copper T used for?
Asked by | 12th Feb, 2010, 12:19: AM
Expert Answer:
Copper Tis a method of contraception.
Copper T (Cu-T) is a small T-shaped Intrauterine Device (IUD) made of soft plastic and copper, that is placed in the uterus to prevent pregnancy.
It releases copper in the uterine cavity, which prevents the sperm from fertilising the egg. It reduces the number and viability of sperms reaching the egg. In case of fertilisation it stops the fertilised egg from making its way to the uterus because the copper kills the fertilised egg.

Cookbook:Pigs in a blanket Pigs in a blanket
Pigs in blankets (also known kilted sausages in Scotland) refers to a variety of different sausage-based foods in the United States, United Kingdom, Denmark, Australia, Ireland, Germany, Belgium, Russia, Canada, and Japan. They are typically small in size and can be eaten in one or two bites. For this reason, they are usually served as an appetizer or hors d'oeuvre or are accompanied by other dishes in the'main course' section of a meal. In the West, especially in the United States and Canada, the bite-sized variety of pigs in a blanket is a common hors d'oeuvre served at cocktail parties and is often accompanied by a mustard or aioli dipping sauce.
Pigs in a blanket are usually different from sausage rolls, which are a larger, more filling item served for breakfast and lunch in parts of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and, more rarely, the United States and Canada.
United Kingdom[edit]
Christmas Dinner in the UK - pigs in blankets at top right of plate
In the United Kingdom, "pigs in blankets" refers to small sausages (usually chipolatas) wrapped in bacon. They are a traditional accompaniment to roast turkey for Christmas dinner. Pigs in blankets can be accompanied with devils on horseback, an appetizer of prunes wrapped in bacon.
United States[edit]
Sausage wrapped in pancakes
In the United States, the term "pigs in a blanket" is used to refer to Vienna sausages, hot dogs, cocktail or breakfast/link sausages wrapped in biscuit dough, pancake, or croissant dough, and baked. The dough is sometimes homemade, but canned dough is most common. They are somewhat similar to a sausage roll or (by extension) a baked corn dog. They are served as an appetizer, a children's dish, or as a breakfast entree. A common variation is to stuff the hot dog or sausage with cheese before wrapping it in dough.
At breakfast or brunch, the term "pigs in a blanket" refers to sausage links with pancake wrapped around it.
The name can also refer to klobasnek (a kind of kolache filled with sausage or ham slices). The German Würstchen im Schlafrock ("sausage in a dressing gown") uses sausages wrapped in puff pastry[1] or, more rarely, pancakes. Cheese and bacon are sometimes present.
In Israel, Moshe Ba'Teiva (Moses in the ark) is a children's dish consisting of a hot dog rolled in a ketchup-covered sheet of puff pastry or phyllo dough and baked.
In Denmark, they have a dish similar to the British-style dish known as the "Pølse i svøb" which means "Sausage in blanket". The American-style Pigs in a blanket are known as "Pølsehorn", meaning "Sausage horns".
In The Netherlands, its called a "saucijzenbroodje", but the "sausage" used is skinless, and the pastry fully encloses the meat within.
In Finland, pigs in blanket is known as "nakkipiilo", which means "hidden sausage" if it is translated freely.
In Mexico, the sausage is wrapped in tortilla and deep fried in vegetable oil. The name "salchitaco" comes from the fusion of the words "salchicha" (sausage) and taco (sausage taco).

We're giving the little blue penguin a fighting chance of reversing its population decline around New Zealand, through pest control and habitat restoration.
This community driven programme focuses on coastal restoration, predator control, and nest-box building to establish favourable habitat and safe homes for Little Blue Penguins.
Places for Penguins started on the Miramar peninsula in Wellington during Wellington's Seaweek in 2007. It was built on other Forest & Bird and community penguin protection projects at Gisborne, New Plymouth, Oamaru and the West Coast.
The nesting program was test-launched in Oamaru and there are now 300 nest boxes in the Oamaru area and 250 nest boxes in the Wellington area. This keeps dogs out of nests and gives penguins ready-built homes.
Penguin protection is a real community effort; at Miramar Peninsula, local residents, Forest & Bird members, the Breaker Bay & Moa Point Progressive Assn, Seatoun School, Wellington High School, Strathmore School, Wellington Zoo, Wellington City Council & Greater Wellington Regional Council are all participating in the project.
New penguin projects are starting and we have developed a guide below so you can protect your own local penguin colony.
Lifecycle and distribution
Little Blue Penguins are one of the few coastal birds that live close to urban areas making cars and dogs a real threat. Despite its fiesty nature, this pint-sized penguin has only has 600 breeding pairs to its name. More
Nest boxes are placed on the seaward side of the roads to prevent penguins from getting hit by cars. They also provide some protection from dogs and cats and increase the number of potential nesting sites along the coast. Thanks to an Infinity Foundation grant, we have installed a nest camera to gain a good picture of their breeding patterns! More
Dogs and pests, such as rats and mustelids, are all dangerous to penguins. Find out more about our pest control program and how you can help.
Planting native plants helps establish more favourable penguin habitat and restores coastal biodiversity. Learn about our planting program, native plants, and how you can join in. More
Public awareness and research projects
Find out what Places for Penguins is doing to encourage dog-owners to control their pets around penguin nests and how we're monitoring penguin colonies. More
Cars present a unique threat to penguins that must sometimes cross the road to access nesting sites and roosting areas. Learn more about traffic control and public awareness campaigns. More

How Statistics Homework Determines The Photographer's Future
Photographer's Future
Remember the first time your kids took some shots with your camera phone. It was their first time and of course, they are not professional photographers. But guess what these are signs they will make good photographers in the future.
It might sound absurd but statistics does determine the future of the photographer. A good photographer will do well with the sound knowledge of statistics or other subjects involving calculations. This is why people can pay for statistics homework just to see the results. Let's find out how.
 1. Understanding the Rule of the third
A good photographer would obviously need a sound knowledge of statistics to excel. Take a look at the photos you have at home. Aren't they looking great? There is one formula that makes it possible to determine if something is great to the human eye. It is known as the rule of thirds.
The rule in question is simple to understand and also needs some statistical knowledge. You can have a pleasing composition of the image if this rule is applied well. The photographer's duty is to make sure that points of interest are placed along the lines of a grid of nine. This is also the area where the picture is shared into three main parts; vertically and horizontally. The view should also be divided fast.
The complex calculations in statistics are one of the reasons students dump statistics homework. Most of the calculations are abstract and difficult to understand. But if your dream is to become a professional photographer in the future, there is no point in running away from your statistics homework. It is very easy to find online help with statistics no matter how complex the homework is.
Writing service providers like have made things a lot easier for students to pass statistics assignment and broaden their understanding. They are written by experts who have sound knowledge and qualification on statistics.
 1. Making Use of the Camera
Pressing the green circle on the screen of the phone is what is used to take pictures. But there is more a professional photographer need to understand. The Single-lens reflex camera (SLR) is what the professional photographer uses. And to be effective, they need to know a thing or two about the depth of field and shutter speeds which will also involve sound statistical or mathematical knowledge. The shutter speed is used to determine how fast the camera blinks. The aperture, on the other hand, controls the amount of light that comes in.
As a photographer, one also needs to have a basic understanding of geometric sequence to determine the correct shutter speed. Calculations on shutter speed are in fractions of seconds. So photographers should be sound with calculations.
Most statistics homework is complex and difficult to understand. But students can seek statistics online help whenever they encounter challenges with their homework. There are dozens of professionals online who are willing to assist students to get good grades on their statistics assignment. So, if you want to become a professional photographer in the future, embrace statistics.

Chironomids are widely and abundantly distributed in the vicinity of standing waters. Larvae of Chironomus and some other genera are known to contain hemoglobins, which have been described as a major allergen, and the adults that have no hemoglobins also have been reported to contain allergens. In this study, we tried to establish the role of chironomid allergy and characterize the allergen of Chironomus kiiensis adults. Skin tests using C. kiiensis adult extracts were performed on patients with allergic symptoms. A cDNA library of C. kiiensis adults was screened with C. kiiensis immune mouse sera to identify allergens, and results were confirmed using skin test-positive human sera. Recombinant allergen was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by affinity chromatography using nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid agarose to investigate its allergenic properties. Out of 275 allergic patients 14.2% showed a positive reaction to C. kiiensis adult crude extracts in the skin test. The tropomyosin was cloned by immunoscreening and expressed in Escherichia coli. C. kiiensis tropomyosin has a high homology at the amino acid level with tropomyosins which were previously known to be allergens in various arthropods (Periplaneta americana, 86.3%; Panulirus stimpson, 78.9%; Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, 76.5%). Specific immunoglobulin E antibodies reacting to recombinant tropomyosin were detected in 17 (81%) of 21 patients whose skin test results were positive. Cross-reactivity against house dust mites and other insects was noticed with mouse anti-recombinant tropomyosin immune serum. C. kiiensis adults were shown to be an important source of inhalant allergens in Korea. Molecular cloning of C. kiiensis tropomyosin was performed and IgE reactivity was demonstrated using skin test-positive human sera. Recombinant tropomyosin will be useful for further studies or clinical applications.
