Many modern buildings require cooling either for the comfort of the occupants or to protect the processes or equipment they contain. There are three typical methods which can be employed to cool these buildings; ventilation, evaporative cooling or a refrigeration based air conditioning system.
The choice of system can have a dramatic effect on the total carbon emissions of the building and the energy consumed due to their different electrical demands.
Ventilation systems can provide comfort cooling for most of the year. During prolonged periods of high temperatures, they are unable to maintain internal temperatures below 25°C. Refrigeration based systems are effective but can be expensive to operate and are not carbon friendly. Evaporative cooling can produce air consistently below 22°C in the UK climate, provides an intermediate solution which consumes only a fraction of the electricity.
EcoCoolers are used as part of a mechanical ventilation system to provide a cost effective alternative to refrigeration for large buildings. Evaporative coolers have a supply air temperature dependent upon the ambient temperature and humidity. On cool days this is the ambient (dry bulb temperature) and on hot days, when evaporative cooling is enabled, this is close to the 'wet bulb' temperature. For more information please see our how evaporative cooling works page.
End user applications for this system include: Warehouses, Manufacturing Facilities, Mezzanine Floors, Production Lines, Bakeries, Laundries, Food Processing, Churches, Lecture Theatres.
An evaporative cooler alone can result in supply air temperature variation during the day and throughout the year. This can cause issues in some applications such as IT cooling where either temperature variation or low temperatures are not acceptable.
To avoid these issues EcoCoolers can be incorporated into a system which uses attemperation. The hot air from the systems exhaust stream is mixed with the incoming cool air to provide supply air at a controlled temperature. A PLC (Programmable Logical Controller) sets the position of dampers to maintain a temperature set point.
It also varies the fan speed to minimise energy use. Water use is optimised by evaporative cooling only being enabled when pure ventilation cannot maintain the desired temperature. ECT units are an internal box approach, ECP units must be installed alongside EC Fans and recirculation dampers.
Evaporative cooling operates during warm periods to cool external air.
During winter periods warm exhaust air is mixed with cold fresh air. EcoCooling describes this mixing process as attemperation.
Patented control systems control air flow rate as well as supply and exhaust temperature.
End user applications for this system include: Data Centres, IT, Comms, Schools and Classrooms, Lecture Theatres, Gyms and Fitness Suites, Restaurants, Venues, Theatres, Offices, Greenhouses.
The ECV range of units consists of a mechanical ventilation unit with attemperation. There is no cooling facility.
These products have been designed for buildings where temperatures occasionally exceeding 25°C are not considered to be of significant concern in rooms where free cooling can be used to supplement refrigeration equipment.
There is on average 300 days a year in the UK where free cooling can be used to replace refrigeration.
Fresh air is brought into the system through EU4 pre-filters.
End user applications for this system include: Data Centre Cooling (Arctic Circle and Nordics), Manufacturing Facilities, Production Lines.

Q: I want to parse multiple strings into variables from a .txt file in java. What's the easiest way to do it? What's the best way to do it? Should I use the File class and scanner? I've never done it before and can't seem to find a solid guide for it online so I figured I would ask here.
Edit:
The text file I am parsing is 3 columns, the first three are ID NAME BIRTHDATE then actual data.
Edit (code from pastie):
public void readFromFile(File file )
{
    try
    {
        System.out.println("success..");
        s = new Scanner(file);
        BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
        String jj = null;
        while((jj = input.readLine())!=null)
        {
            String [] words = jj.split("\\t");
            String name = "";
            String id = "";
            String birthdate ="";
            for (int i = 3; i<words.length; i+=3)
            {
                id =words[i];
                name = words[i+1];
                birthdate=words[i+2];
                Person p = new Person(id, name, birthdate);
                peopleMap.put(p.id,p);
                names.add(p);
                System.out.println("New entry added to file: "+name+"\\t"+"ID: "
                                    +id+"\\t"+"Birthdate"+birthdate);
            }
        }
    }

    catch(IOException e)
    {
    }
}

A: The easiest way depends on the format of the text file. From your other comment, it sounds like the lines are tab separated values. As a beginner you will probably find it simplest to use Scanner. Specifically, Scanner.nextLine(). Couple that with using String.split("\t") to split the data into an array (assuming the format is tab-separated-values).

A: Simply depends on the format of the text file.

*

*If its simple name value pair then you can use java.util.Properties. for example a.properties could look like:
name=john
city=san jose
date=12 july 2010

then you can load this as:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.load(new FileInputStream("a.properties"));

*If format is different than what is supported by java.util.Properties.load() then using java.util.Scanner would be helpful to process it line by line:
File file = new File("data.txt");
try
{
    Scanner scanner = new Scanner(file);
    while (scanner.hasNextLine())
    {
        String line = scanner.nextLine();
        //Process each line seperately
        processLine(line);
    }
} catch (FileNotFoundException e)
{
    e.printStackTrace();
}

A: If you are free to say what the syntax / structure of the text file is, then consider making it a Java properties file.  Then you can load and save the file with minimal programming effort using the java.util.Properties class.

A: This is what I like to do in that situation:
Scanner s = new Scanner(file);
Scanner line;
String name;
String date;
int id;
while(s.hasNext()){
   line = new Scanner(s.nextLine());
   id = line.nextInt();
   name = line.next/*String*/();
   date = line.next/*String*/();
   /* Do something with id, name and date */
}

Maybe there is some exception handling or something like that
(Anyone want to comment on the efficiency of creating many new Scanners?)

The Wild Coast Jikeleza Route boast magnificent scenery, pristine ecosystems, affordable family accommodation, superb culinary offerings, malaria-free Big 5 game viewing and adventurous leisure activities for the whole family.
Named after the isiXhosa expression "To go around" the Jikeleza Route is East London's premier tourism route and also its best-kept secret. Situated just 10km northeast of the city, the Wild Coast Jikeleza Route runs along the old Schafli Road (East Coast Resorts Road) and stretches from Sunrise on Sea to Cefane. The Jikeleza Route is now the official start of South Africa's Wild Coast, a stretch of rugged coastline sprinkled with some of the best beaches in the world.
A charming, secure coastal home fit for a quiet weekend away or a full on family summer holiday for 3 weeks. The home boasts 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and an open-plan living area with a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area and lounge in the main house.
Lovely farm cottage available at R350 a night. It sleeps 2 people and is fully equipped for self catering. It has a private braai area and situated in the garden of Panorama Farm, near Cintsa West.
The 5-day Strandloper Hiking Trail passes along the village's 17km long beach and past the wreck site of the Atalaia, which sunk in 1647 between Cintsa and Cefani. The Portuguese vessel broke up long ago and is no longer visible; however some cannon were retrieved from the wreck and can now be seen in the East London Museum.
Imagine cantering down the beach with the ocean on one side and magnificent dunes on the other, a pod of dolphins diving through the waves, that's what you can experience.
Our trails vary from a 2 hour trail incorporating beach and bush and some of the most scenic views from above Buccaneers Backpackers at Cintsa looking back toward Morgan Bay and Kei Mouth.
This exposed point runs out just south of the Kwelera River mouth and is one of the top rated surf spots in the area, with a perfect right hand break. The beach break is more consistent, with hollow lefts and rights, depending on sand around the mouth. The beach also handles strong southwest winds. The point needs solid, long-period south or southeast groundswell, pushing high tide and glassy or light northwest winds, otherwise it can be fickle, and you end up chasing shadows. On a good day, wedgy take-offs and long tubing sections along the rocks. Getting caught on the inside is tricky.
The relatively short ride at Queensberry Bay is made up for by its quality. The wave walls up along a shallow rock shelf, then bends around into deeper water and fades. In glassy conditions, it can be classic. The bigger the swell, the deeper you take off and the longer the ride. A south to southeast swell of 6-8 feet in light land breezes is best. Sensitive to wind. There is an inside left on the far side of the bay that gets good in east swell. Quiet during the week.
The Kwelera River estuary forms somewhat of a protected shallow lagoon creating a safe place for the youngsters to swim. The river is safe for boating, and is both wide and long enough for water skiing, wake boarding and tubing. The river is able to be traveled by boat as far as 5km inland from the river mouth providing excellent fishing, stunning scenery and bird watching opportunities.
Long walks on the beach, rock pools with abundant fish life, bathing and shell collecting are just a few of the beach activities most spend their time doing.
Tucked along South Africa's breathtaking Wild Coast, Inkwenkwezi is a world-class big five game reserve with an emphasis on luxury and thoughtful details. Inkwenkwezi's prime location in the malaria-free Eastern Cape of South Africa offers many unique opportunities, as it encompasses five different regional ecosystems (biomes) and a tidal estuary. This rich diversity of landscape offers unparalleled wildlife viewing. The reserve is just five minutes from magnificent beaches and a short, convenient drive from the East London airport.
Cintsa boasts a magnificent, 17-kilometre long, beach.
Tea in the trees outdoor cafe is open in cintsa west every sunday from 9-2pm serving delicious breakfast,lunch and treats. We have a beautiful coastal forest walk and jungle gym for kids. Dogs welcome! On the first Sunday of the month we have an art craft and home produce market.
Kwelera has an abundant variety of bird life and even some wildlife for those keen outdoor enthusiasts. Knysna Lourie, Fish Eagles, Herons and Kingfishers are just a few of the many birds you should be able to spot in the surrounding areas. Blue dyker, bush buck and vervet monkeys are some of the more commonly seen wildlife.
Accommodation can be found all along the Wild Coast Jikeleza Route and ranges from bed and breakfast and self-catering establishments, to backpackers and caravan parks. All offer well situated, quality accommodation, with many having excellent views of the beaches and warm waters of the Indian Ocean.
Chefane, Cintsa East, Cintsa West, Glen Muir, Glen Eden, Queensberry Bay, Glengariff, Yellowsands, Kwelerha, Sunrise on Sea and Rainbow Valley.
Drive along the N2 towards Mthatha. About 5km past the Gonubie turn-off, take the Brakfontein turnoff. At the top of the bridge, turn right (crossing the bridge over the highway) and continue down the road for about 2km. Turn left at the "Schafli Road" and East Coast Resorts sign. You are now at the start of the Jikeleza Route.
Drive along the N2 towards East London. About 41km past the Kei Bridge you will find the turnoff to The Jikeleza Route / Cintsa / East Coast Resorts on your left. It is about 15km from East London.

"Clubbish in location, in looks and for the most part clubbish in clientele, wonderful Wiltons in fact affords a cheerful, courteous welcome to all who show up in properly sober clothes, ready to pay the sobering prices. The best English food (as opposed to the best food in England, which is so grandly cosmopolitan these days) is still that which has been least messed about with. That is just what Wilton's delivers. 'Noted since 1742 for the finest oysters, fish and game,' it says of itself, with every justification.
"You might start with a half-dozen oysters. They will set you back a pretty penny, but then they are imposing creatures, five inches across, pale beige rather than silver-gray, in shells as flat as saucers. They come from West Mersea, on an island off the Essex coast, from beds that are harvested exclusively from rowboats, lest oil or gasoline pollute the waters. They are opened by London's best oysterman, Patrick Flaherty, a 40-year veteran when I last checked. None of the briny juices escape. No nasty bits of shell creep in. Then maybe a wild salmon from the Spey in Scotland (increasingly rare), or a snowy hunk of halibut — 'a nice piece of fish,' as I once heard Rex Harrison call it.
While I am also particularly fond of the Dover sole, dining at Wiltons can be a memorable experience in other ways. In the evening, you might even catch a glimpse of a member of the royal family. Other than the cuisine, what I remember about this luncheon service in 2001 were the dapper art dealers sitting at the bar, absentmindedly picking at their food while perusing a Sotheby's catalog during the midday break in an auction. The scene was quintessential London, as much as the Queen's Guard outside Buckingham Palace, a leisurely 13-minute stroll from the restaurant. Still, I focused on the dishes placed in front of me, for one never knows when he or she might pass this way again.
Clubbish. ... good word and great blog. Hope I can go there one of these days.

The study revealed that that more than 53 per cent of children interviewed reported having faced one or more forms of sexual abuse and 21.90 per cent child respondents reported facing severe forms of sexual abuse and 50.76 per cent other forms of sexual abuse, he said in written reply to a question.
Ahir said 50 per cent abusers were persons known to the child and most children did not report the matter to anyone. Children on street, at work and in institutional care reported the highest incidence of sexual assault, he said.
The 13 states where the survey was conducted were - Assam, Mizoram, Goa, Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat and Kerala.


Has anyone ever taken (Whey) protein during a fast? If so, why, and what were your experiences with it?
Last week I fasted three days on water. It was challenging but I wanted to do it and am very pleased with myself for doing it. I lost about 8 kilos, going down from 87 kilos to 78 1/2. I am slender in body form but over the years have managed to build up a lot of stubborn body fat around my waist. Although I exercise regularly the fat in this area did not diminish until the fast. My goal is NOT to reduce the fat in this area but to get RID of it altogether.
So, I am water-fasting this weekend as well. As a matter of fact I have been looking forward to it. I have prepared myself by eating only fruits today (Friday, 18-06-10). After 18:00 this evening I will not eat again until Sunday 18:00.
My only concern is that last week when I water-fasted I lost a lot of muscle size. I considered taking whey protein this time but have decided against it for two reasons. One, the duration of the fast is only for 48 hours and taking whey protein might subtract from the benefits I am to receive from fasting; two, I've been informed that the body will use protein as fuel when its supply of fuel from food is not available.
If my information is correct the reason that I lost muscle size in my last fast was because my body started taking protein from my muscles in order to use it as an energy source. Obviously I don't want my body using whey protein as an energy source, rather, I want it to use the accumulated fat around my waistline.
You did not lose muscle mass during a two day fast. You did lose water. When you go to the gym your muscles pump up. A few hours later or a day later the muscles reduce in mass. They are just as strong but they have less fluid. Fat has 3600 calories per pound that is easy to break down and is designed as a energy storage so why would your body use valuable muscle tissue that only has 1817 calories per pound and is hard to break down. Your body also has reduced salt levels and that reduces cellular water retention.
My sincere thanks and appreciation for your answering my inquiry with information that is direct and understandable. Because of already being slender in body form I do not need to lose weight in any area of my body except my waistline.
For the present, fasting on the weekends fits best in my life. Yesterday, Friday, I ate only fruit. This gave me enough energy to work and it cleaned out my system a bit also. Next week I think to eat only fruits both Thursday and Friday in preparation for fasting Saturday and Sunday.
My track record though is unbelievably sorrowful if i might say.
I'm sincerely planning to join you in Philippines soon and continue to spread your case studies and results to like-minded people..
That is a great story of fasting through addiction, if you want to write it up we can punish it. We work 60 hours a week with a team to promote fasting and healing.
Too much work, too little time but one day at a time we build.
Love to have you out.
I'm flattered. Though mine may not be a fantastic story as compared to many others, I would love to share once i resolve some issues with my ISP (Internet Service Provider). Let me write it up and post to you which might take some time. Understand you have a very busy schedule thus I'm very grateful for your prompt reply. I have already drafted a response to your queries but unable to sent it out (ISP problem). For now, I'm only able to post via a terminal at my workplace. Hopefully, My ISP is still interested to keep me as a client and fix the problem soon.


One of my favorite parts of Moonrise Kingdom is when Sam and Suzy ask each other what they want to do when they grow up and they both answer "take adventures". Can I admit that scene made me smile, like really hard? This poster pairings print by Leah Flores is an ode to that sentiment, a reminder to just get out there and make adventure happen because it's one of the greatest things life has to offer. For the tune, I've called on New Pornographers. You can find out exactly which song below the print.

CYRANO, MY LOVE
Reviewed for Shockya.com & BigAppleReviews.net linked from Rotten Tomatoes by: Harvey Karten
Director:Alexis Michalik
Screenwriter: Alexis Michalik
Cast: Thomas Solivérès, Olivier Gourmet, Mithilde Seigner, Tom Leeb, Lucie Boujenah, Alice De Lencquesaing
Screened at: Critics' link, NYC, 9/24/19
Opens: October 18, 2019
We go to movies to see stories of lovers and criminals, cops and robbers, Batman and Robin, but who would think that a story about a writer could be both funny and sad, bubbly and mournful, especially about a playwright whose magnum opus is known by everyone but whose name slips our mind? With "Cyrano, My Love," director Alexis Michalik, a handsome young fellow with a long résumé as an actor, slips into the director's chair with a first feature that mimics the trajectory of Edmond Rostand. With this wonderful, effervescent movie, Michalik hits pay dirt much like Rostand, a Parisian who, in 1897, had not written for two years only to rise above his station. Filled with both boisterous moments and expression of deep loneliness, "Cyrano, My Love" finds Rostand at age twenty-nine in Paris, desperate for money to pay the rent and to support his wife and two kids.
Rostand, given stunning new life by newcomer Thomas Solivérès, shares the glory in this film with Olivier Gourmet in the role of noted French actor Constant Coquelin, who is about to take on the costume, the poetic wit, and most of all the nose of Cyrano. Herein is a fanciful re-creation of Rostand's struggle to make a name for himself after the turkey he had written for Sarah Bernhardt (Clementine Celarie). Since necessity is the mother of invention, Rostand's recovers his ambition and his hopes, investing everything in a new play that seems unlikely to draw much of an audience given his previous flop. Enlightenment comes from the local restaurateur Honoré, a black man, who suggests the plot lines for Cyrano, holding that like Honoré, Cyrano has been treated like an insignificant soul.
Since a cardinal rule is to write what you know, Rostand bears witness to the plight of his friend Léonidas Léo Volny (Tom Leeb). Volny is in love with a theater costume designer Jeanne (Lucie Boujenah) and, given his good looks should be able to connect with the pretty young woman. But looks aren't everything (or so some people think). Volny is unable to speak what he feels, and what a woman wants in Paris at least during the fin de siècle is a lover who can sweep her off her feet with words, verses preferred over mere prose. By contrast, Rostand is flawed with his ordinary appearance, his only hope lying in his words. While Volny pretends to speak passionately with Jeanne, who stands on a balcony, Rostand hides beneath delivering Volny's words of love, making Jeanne fall in love with the poetry.
This being Paris, love and sexuality are more open than they had been for, say, the U.S. during the 1950s, which makes one wonder why the City of Lights needs brothels at all. Director Michalik, who by the way takes on the role of George Feydeau known and celebrated for his one-act farces, chooses to shoot a scene in a brothel which he could have left on the cutting-room floor, perhaps spending more time fleshing out some of the minor characters like Feydeau and some of the women including Mathilde Seigner as Maria Legault, who in the re-enactment of the play falls twice through a trap door, and Rostand's wife Rosemonde (Alice de Lencquesaing), who fears that the passion in her marriage is gone.
This is an expensive production given the hundreds of well-dressed extras that fill all of the theater's 1050 seats and the rentals of expensive costumes probably from the Barrandov Studios in the Czech Republic where much of the movie was filmed. "Cyrano, My Love" is a fast-moving comedy-drama that builds excitement from the scores of mishaps that threaten to close the play even before opening night, including a police action that would ban the presence of the title character and the disappearance on opening night of a major player. However the show must go on. See this obvious crowd-pleaser for scenes that are partly highbrow but with a strong emphasis on the down-to-earth hilarity that can be appreciated by theater snobs and groundlings alike.

The Reconciliation Bill Is About Saving Democracy
Democrats have to prove that the government can deliver for people. If they don't, authoritarianism wins.
Roberto Schmidt
Why do the Democrats behave this way? We've heard the standard answers. They're not as disciplined as the Republicans, instinctively less inclined to obey orders (a good thing). They're more ideologically diverse (also a good thing, up to a point). They actually care about policy outcomes, unlike Republicans, so they have genuine substantive disagreements (another good thing—again, up to a point).
But here's another reason, and this one is not a good thing. They, or at least some of them, have no grasp of the historical moment in which they find themselves. And this moment is unlike anything any of them have lived through, anything the country has been through: The opposition party is trying to destroy democracy. Republicans all over the country are passing laws and making rules in broad daylight that will allow them to overturn the results (if adverse) of the next presidential election. They're not hiding this. They're advertising it. John Eastman's memo is Exhibit A, but we also have exhibits B through double-Z. They couldn't be making their intentions clearer.
So the Democrats have to be the party of democracy. That means they need to make some obvious moves, such as protecting voting rights, which seems tragically iffy at the moment; but it also means, as Joe Biden repeatedly and correctly says, that they need to show the country that democracy works and can produce positive outcomes. If they don't manage to come to terms on this reconciliation bill, the negative impacts won't be merely economic. This reconciliation bill is about democracy. If they don't pass it and don't show that democracy works, especially with the government in the hands of one party, the Republican Party will benefit—they'll almost certainly take the House and the Senate in 2022, and they'll be teed up to steal the 2024 election for Donald Trump, and American democracy will be on life support.
This is what the Democrats need to understand. Joe Manchin's statement last week, about this much spending being "the definition of fiscal insanity," was distressing in the first instance because it was awful economics—it was Democratic Leadership Council talking points circa 1995.
But it was bad also because it showed no understanding of this precarious moment in history and mortal threat facing our democracy. Yes, there were standard nods to hoping that common ground could be found, but there was no language in that statement that demonstrated that he recognizes that the Democrats must now come together to prove that government can deliver services to its citizens. That is what matters, and that's where any Democrat's emphasis should be.
Democrats should have recognized this from the start and passed both the infrastructure bill and the reconciliation bill in September at the latest. They also should have raised the minimum wage earlier this year. If $11 was as high as Manchin was willing to go, then $11 it shall be. That wasn't just Manchin, or even Kyrsten Sinema, with her appalling theatrical thumbs-down. Eight Senate Democrats voted against $15. So fine, make it $11. There's a huge difference between $7.25 and $11, and the people earning those paltry wages would notice the boost immediately. I hope to God that the idea of some kind of minimum wage increase isn't dead in this Congress.
Democrats don't seem to see the bigger picture. They bicker and posture as if these are normal times and democracy isn't at stake. Obviously, I'm more sympathetic to Pramila Jayapal and the progressives than to Manchin, Sinema, and others on the party's right flank. Jayapal's position here, for the full $3.5 trillion, isn't some radical leftist position. It's the president's position! And we even learned last week that it's to the right of David Brooks, who wants $4 trillion!
It's also a position in favor of a set of proposals that poll extremely well overall. To take one example, 93 percent of Democrats and 78 percent of Republicans support subsidized childcare, Elizabeth Warren's pet project. Americans want these things. Numbers are similar for many other programs in the bill. Have a gander at these figures from a poll of several swing House districts. They're pretty overwhelming.
Finally, it's also a position in favor of a group of programs that would bring enormous benefits to depressed parts of this country. That is to say, in red America—in our dear West Virginia, Senator Manchin—these programs would create thousands of jobs. And most of them for people without a college education! All those states so full of Trumpy rage would benefit tremendously from the various pieces of this reconciliation puzzle (and from the infrastructure bill, too). The Democrats, or most of them anyway, do say this, but not nearly enough, and they've let the argument become far too focused on the top-line number (I wrote two weeks ago about how they can still reframe that).
Jayapal should stand her ground. However, she also has to recognize that unfortunately, it's a sad fact that Manchin and Sinema have more leverage than she and the progressives do, because each of them can single-handedly kill the bill. But she rose to the occasion. She has greatly enhanced her status and reputation, and I think it's clear now to Nancy Pelosi and House moderates that progressives aren't going to be doormats anymore. There will come a day, I hope this week, when Jayapal realizes all this, taps on the brakes, and accepts the reality of, say, something around $2 trillion, which is still a hell of a lot of money and would rank this legislation up there near Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid in terms of historic significance.
And Manchin has to play ball, as well. I get the sense for now that he will. As for Sinema, who knows, she's so weird, but if Manchin is in, I very much doubt she's weird enough to decide to wreck the Biden presidency and her party's near-term future prospects single-handedly.
And I hope Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are telling their caucuses every day, if not every hour: Gang, this isn't about money or government programs. It's about democracy.

COMPOST USE IN URBAN RESTORED WETLANDS
BioCycle October 2005, Vol. 40, No. 9, p. 40
Duke University researchers evaluate additions of compost to low organic matter soils, establishing plants in low marshes and high marshes.
Ariana E. Sutton-Grier, James Pahl, Mengchi Ho and Curtis Richardson
SUCCESSFUL restoration of riparian wetland habitat is often inhibited by the lack of organic matter in soils. To meet this challenge, organic matter amendments were planned for wetland cells within a stream and floodplain restoration of Little Sugar Creek in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, to be called the Hidden Valley Ecological Garden. Researchers from the Duke University Wetland Center (DUWC) began working with the county's Stormwater Services to develop a set of experimental soil organic matter amendments to test if adding compost would increase growth of planted vegetation and improve water quality. Three treatments were established: 1) Topsoil only; 2) Low compost at a ratio of 4:1 topsoil:compost; and 3) High compost at a ratio of 2:1 topsoil:compost. Following the end of restoration activities in July 2004, Duke personnel launched a five-year program of quarterly ambient stream water quality sampling and habitat development, and annual surveying of soils and vegetation in wetland cells.
Ambient water quality data, as measured in June and November 2004, showed limited reduction of nutrients. Decreases in P concentrations with movement downstream may be due to physiochemical retention as opposed to in-stream biological processing, although our sampling scheme is not structured to confirm that assertion. We measured high levels of fecal coliform bacteria at all sites, and there was little evidence that the stream processes were acting on those bacteria. There were no obvious trends in the other parameters examined.
Preliminary soils data show that there is a high degree of variability among sites in measured parameters, including soil organic matter, which is highly variable both among and between amendment treatments. The application of compost amendments to the soils was more haphazard than hoped. That, along with the reluctance of the compost supplier to provide background data on the compost product, will complicate subsequent efforts to determine the relative merits of augmenting soils with organic matter.
Plant growth in nine of the 11 cells was robust between July and September, particularly in the low marsh areas. By September, growth in the high marsh areas was also vigorous, although volunteers and undesirable invasive grasses dominated much of it. The first few months after conclusion of construction activities mainly provided background data, and we expect that real trends in the data will begin to become evident during the first full growing season after construction (in 2005).
The Hidden Valley Ecological Garden project includes 13 acres of "reclaimed" floodplain and 3,500 feet of stream. Stated goals of the project include: reducing flooding during rain events by reducing peak flows and flow duration; reconnecting the stream to the bank full floodplain; improving water quality; increasing ground water recharge; restoring terrestrial and aquatic habitat; stabilizing the embankment with native vegetation and restoring the "natural" channel dimensions and profile; eliminating fecal coliform; and decreasing stream temperature.
When 17 homes were built on the previous floodplain site between 1956-1968, six feet of fill material was added. Removing the fill material as part of the restoration exposed relatively undeveloped, clay-rich soil horizons. DUWC was asked to develop and test whether adding topsoil to the site would establish better soil conditions for the plants. We realized that soil organic matter levels were potentially going to be low in the newly established marshes due to the intense degree of disturbance to the site and suggested a soil amendment study to examine the effect of organic matter additions on the soil processes and plant growth and survival.
We are specifically testing the following hypotheses: organic matter additions will increase extractable N and P and soil moisture holding capacity, all of which are soil processes that are critical to plant survival and growth; organic matter additions will also increase microbial biomass; and improved plant growth and survival will be significantly correlated with soil physical and biogeochemical properties as well as biological processes.
Following the completion of construction activities, we conducted our first quarterly sample of ambient water quality on November 1, 2004. The remainder of quarterly sampling will occur in January, April, July and October through 2008.
EFFECTS OF COMPOST AMENDMENTS ON WETLAND CELLS
Initial analysis of the proposed compost to be used on the site showed a moisture content of 57.9 percent and an organic content of 63 percent. Thus, for every pound of compost, there was only about 0.25 pounds of dry organic matter. Although ideal treatment levels of compost amendment would have been to add compost at the 1:1 and 2:1 ratios, financial and logistical realities forced our next best scenario of a 2:1 and 4:1 topsoil:compost ratios for the High and Low Compost treatments, respectively. According to our calculations, this would raise the organic content to 10 percent (by mass) in the High Compost treatment and 7 percent (by mass) in the Low Compost mixture.
We determined that the topsoil itself already had on average about four percent organic matter. We predicted that ratios lower than these, such as 3:1 (high) and 6:1 (low) ratios would only raise the organic matter content of the low compost treatment by about one percent, which we predicted would not be enough compost to see any effects in plant growth or soil properties when compared to the topsoil only treatment. These were our best approximations based on the limited information available to use prior to the onset of construction activities and some generous assumptions about the characteristics of the materials with which we were working.
The most significant aspect of the soils data is the high degree of variability between cells, both within and among amendment treatment levels. This variability provides strong evidence that the establishment of the soil amendments was not as controlled a process as we would have hoped. This conclusion is bolstered by observations of the soils data from September 2004 suggesting that not only was the application of the compost to the soils highly haphazard, but that efforts to thoroughly mix that material into the topsoil were limited at best. Our initial observations and lab determinations suggest that in essence we have poorly mixed topsoil and compost sitting as a distinct layer atop the harder unmixed soils that were exposed after the preexisting soil was scraped from the surface during the restoration of floodplain elevations in the initial stages of construction.
Recent developments on the wetland studies will be reported by the author at the BioCycle Southeast Conference in a Monday, November 14, 2005 session on Storm Water Management, Compost Style. Other presenters at this session are Britt Faucette of Filtrexx International (Watershed Research Findings); Chuck Friedrich of the Carolina Stalite Company (Green Roof Growing Media); and Ann Gill of Mecklenburg County, NC Solid Waste Reduction (Compost Role in Local Ordinances.)
The authors are with the Duke University Wetland Center based in Durham, North Carolina.

Penelope Judith Millar (born 1957) is a New Zealand artist, who lives in Auckland, New Zealand and Berlin, Germany.

Education
Millar received a BFA in 1980 and an MFA from Auckland University's Elam School of Fine Arts in 1983. As recipient of a Scholarship from the Italian Government in 1990, she spent a year in Turin, Italy, where she studied Italian arts of the 1960s and 1970s.

Paintings
Millar is known for her abstract acrylic and oil paintings. While her works may recall Abstract Expressionist paintings, Millar does not consider her paintings as being 'gestural'. In an interview with Ocula in 2016, she said that,The word that always sets my teeth on edge is 'gesture.' Gesture seems like something that comes gushing out from deep inside you. That is not really what I am interested in. My work is much more about drawing; it is about looking and seeing, less about 'expressing'. I'm using gesture only in the sense that a gesture can communicate something.

Awards and honours
2011 Arts Board Arts Grant, Creative New Zealand
2002 Paramount Award, Wallace Art Awards, New Zealand
1994 Moet & Chandon Fellowship, Avize
1990 Italian Government Post-Graduate Scholarship, Accademia Albertina delle Belle Arti, Turin, Italy

Residencies
2009 Creative New Zealand Visual Arts Residency in New York, International Studio & Curatorial Program (ISCP), New York City
2006 Inaugural winner of the McCahon House Residency, New Zealand

Exhibitions

Millar has had numerous solo and group exhibitions in both New Zealand and Europe and found critical acclaim in the international press.

Selected Solo Exhibitions
 2005 I Will, Should, Can, Must, May, Would Like to Express, Auckland Art Gallery, Auckland
 2006 Something, Nothing, 64zero3, Christchurch

 2008 Matt Black, Galerie Mark Müller, Zurich, Switzerland
 2009 Giraffe-Bottle-Gun, New Zealand Pavilion, Venice Biennale, Venice, Italy
 2015 The Model World, Te Uru Waitakere Contemporary Gallery

Her painterly style was described as "energetic and overwhelming", and Andrea Hilgenstock calls her paintings "spectacular".
Further references can be found in recent publications on New Zealand art.

Her works can be found in the collections of the Kunstmuseum St. Gallen, Dunedin Public Art Gallery the Auckland Art Gallery, the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, Christchurch Art Gallery, and numerous private collections throughout Europe.

She represented New Zealand at the 53rd Venice Biennial in 2009. This project is recreated in miniature in the 2014 pop-up book Swell, created in collaboration with paper engineer Phillip Fickling and writer Trish Gribben – this book in turn inspired full-scale pop-up style works for her solo exhibition The Model World and large sculptures for SCAPE and the Auckland Art Gallery.

In 2011 she was again part of the Venice Biennale in the collateral event Personal Structures in Palazzo Bembo.

Current

Millar is represented by Gow Langsford Gallery in Auckland, Gallery Mark Müller in Zurich, Hamish Morrison Gallery in Berlin, and Sullivan Strumpf, Sydney.

Classroom Motivational Strategies
The Concept of Motivation
The eternal question over how to conquer learners' hearts and minds is being confronted by foreign language teachers since the foundation of learning and teaching methodology. Motivation is a multi-dimensional concept and the exact nature of its components depends greatly on human cognition and complex contextual factors.
Specifically, motivation is influenced by a range of psychosocial factors both internal to the learner and present in the learner's social environment. When considering motivation for learning, three broad fundamental principles have to be taken into consideration. The first of these focuses on the emotional influences on learning, which are affected by the learner's emotional state, beliefs, interests and ways of thinking. The second concerns the learner's creativity, higher order thinking and natural curiosity while the third principle refers to the effect of motivation on extended learner effort and guided practice. However, no model of motivation is complete without considering the final outcome of the motivational processes which is called volition in educational psychology. Volition is defined by Corno as a "dynamic system of psychological control processes that protects concentration and directed effort in the face of personal or environmental distractions".
By Despoina Nikolaidi
As far as the importance of motivation is concerned, it has been scientifically verified that true motivation shapes a profound teacher-student rapport and increases learners' goal-orientation. It not only creates a supportive classroom atmosphere and a cohesive language learner group but also develops learner autonomy and self-evaluation. Additionally, it inspires a feeling of progress which is deemed essential for building a positive identity as a successful learner. As a result, the motivated learner is persistent and attentive, experiences reinforcement from success and utilizes a variety of strategies in order to achieve this sense of self-determination.
Motivational Strategies
Motivational strategies are techniques that promote the individual's goal-related behaviour. In other words, they refer to those motivational influences that are consciously exerted to achieve some systematic and enduring positive learning effect.
Collaborative relationship with learners and their parents
Teachers who share warm, personal interactions with their students are more likely to inspire them in learning issues than those who distance themselves from their learners. Establishing trust in a classroom is a gradual process whose components include teachers' acceptance of their learners, their ability to listen and pay attention to them as well as their availability for personal contact. All three parameters revolve around a positive attitude. For this reason, there is a whole variety of small, yet significant gestures which can convey personal interest. Greeting students and remembering their names, learning a unique trait about each student, noticing interesting features of their appearance (e.g. new haircut) or smoothly incorporating personal examples about students in the discussion are some of the available techniques.
Supportive atmosphere within FL classroom
Language learning is one of the most face-threatening school subjects because the FL teacher confronts a rather limited language code. An alluring and supportive classroom enhances a norm of tolerance that encourages risk-taking since mistakes are considered natural parts of the learning process. An additional tool to improve the classroom atmosphere is the use of humour. Humour constitutes an extremely potent learning factor, although it is often underestimated in theoretical writings on motivation.
Teachers should also take into consideration that the L2 classroom is not merely a psychological but primarily a physical milieu which is strongly influenced by the class decoration: posters, bulletin board displays, flowers, funny objects etc. Nevertheless, it is not the aesthetic qualities of the surroundings themselves but rather the personalisation of the classroom that inspires a relaxed learning environment. This is basically related to the abstract notion of the ownership of the classroom. Personalising the classroom could be seen as students exercising increasing control over their surroundings.
Development of group cohesiveness
Group dynamics is a well-established discipline in social psychology which is entirely devoted to the study of how groups (as social units) display a powerful influence on their members. Two aspects of group dynamics that have direct motivational bearings are group cohesiveness and group norms. Whether or not a language class becomes a cohesive community is not a haphazard matter.
There are a number of specific factors that can positively contribute to this process and many of these are within the teacher's control. The introduction of interactive pair work, such as role-play performances, problem solving, filling in worksheets activities along with the sharing of genuine personal information would reinforce proximity and cooperation among learners. FL teachers may occasionally include whole-group tasks which generate a satisfying visible product, thereby allowing learners to indulge into the rewarding nature of intragroup experience and competition. Group members who spend a considerable amount of time and effort reflecting on the group goals will inevitably develop a sense of commitment towards group cohesiveness.
Expectancy of success
An undeniable fact in motivational psychology is that "we learn best when we expect success". In their position of group leader, teachers embody the class spirit. Unless they show commitment towards the students' learning and progress, their learners will adopt a disruptive behaviour. Besides the obvious prerequisite that teachers should not provide tasks that are too difficult for learners' potential , they can make sure that learners encounter no serious impediments to success (e.g. time limitations, distracting obligations, inadequate resources, disturbance by other learners etc.). Additionally, sufficient pre-task preparation and transparent success criteria will enable learners to self-evaluate their learning as they proceed.
Other ways in which the teacher could express his/her interest towards the students' learning issues are the following ones: by offering concrete assistance, responding immediately when help is requested, arranging extracurricular instructional programmes and assessing tests and papers promptly. Painstaking research has shown that it is essential to have sufficiently high expectations for what learners can achieve since these expectations act as future self-fulfilling prophecies.•

The 2015 Omni Group Report
Ken Case:
At this time last year, we had four shipping apps on iPad — OmniFocus, OmniGraffle, OmniOutliner, and OmniPlan — but just one of those apps was available on iPhone. Apple had just shipped the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and with their larger screens we decided to bring all our apps to iPhone. And we did just that, shipping free universal updates to the iPad apps that made them also run on iPhone: first OmniGraffle on March 5, then OmniPlan on March 12, OmniOutliner on March 19, and finally OmniFocus on April 2. (OmniFocus was actually ready on April 1, but if we shipped it that day I worried that people might think the whole thing was an April Fools' joke!)
Among long-time Mac developers, I think the Omni Group is doing as good a job as anyone at making iOS development a thriving part of their business.
Up next, some cool news for OmniOutliner:
For OmniOutliner, I'm very pleased to share that we have some major writing improvements on the way! On both Mac and iOS, we plan to support distraction-free full-screen editing, the ability to see your current word count, and support for directly editing Markdown documents.

Q: React 17 iOS events acting strange I encountered a weird issue when testing our web application using iOS 15.2.1 (iPad Pro 3rd gen.) or using the Apple iPad Air/Pro Simulator. The same issue is reproducible on Chrome and Safari browsers.
This happen when clicking on two different buttons at medium pace (~500ms). The first click on the first button event fires the proper event handler. Then, when rapidly clicking on the second button, the same event as the first click is fired... This only happens with React 17.0.X. React 16 works as expected.
Here's the very basic code sample reproducing the issue.
https://codesandbox.io/embed/react-17-events-issue-safari-mobile-pfztei?fontsize=14&hidenavigation=1&theme=dark


Ever since the affair with Anna, Vronsky's external life has continued in exactly the same fashion as before: he spends time with his regiment, and they continue to love and respect him. All of Petersburg high society knows about the affair, and they are waiting with bated breath for the right moment for mudslinging against Anna to begin.
Though Vronsky's inner life has exploded in his affair with Anna, externally, there are no repercussions; indeed, his regiment officers, if anything, respect him more. Though everyone in Petersburg knows about the scandal, nothing has been said aloud yet, and the worst consequences will be for Anna, not Vronsky.
Vronsky's mother is initially pleased with the liaison, but is disappointed when she realizes that the passion is interfering with Vronsky's political ambitions. Vronsky's passion for Anna does not, however, interfere with his passion for horses, and he eagerly anticipates an upcoming race.
Vronsky's mother disapproves of the affair on the grounds of ambition and politics, not morals. Vronsky's other great passion in life, horses, provides a counterbalance to his romantic life.
