Installation Guidelines for the mounting and Installation of Water Flow meters.
This page details mounting and installation guidelines pertaining to paddle wheel flow meters, it will also be a good read for anyone starting out with flow meters in general. These are location and installation guidelines, this is not a troubleshooting guide for mechanical/electrical issues. These guidelines apply to nearly all flow meters, positive displacement meters would be one exception.
Having been in the flow measuring business for 30 years, I have found that about 95% of the flow metering issues are traceable back to 3 simple principles.
The flow rate must be within the recommended range for the pipe size the meter is installed on.
The pipe must be full of water at all times.
There must be a sufficient length of straight pipe before and after the meter.
All flow meters all have a minimum flow rate they will measure for each pipe size. No flow meter reads down to 0. This lower limit is a result of the flow velocity not containing enough momentum to keep the paddle wheel spinning. At some point the flow velocity drops and the paddle no longer spins linearly with respect to the flow rate. This is the lowest flow rate the meter can accurately measure.Many times the meter will indicated flow rates below this value but will contain a large inaccuracy. At some point the flow velocity becomes too low and the meter will indicate 0, even though there is still flow.
Some flow meter manufactures specialize in measuring low flows. These meters work in a clean water laboratory, however, in the real world with dirty water and biological growth these meters do not functioning as advertised. Keep that in mind!! The simple solution is to reduce the pipe size; this increases the speed of the flow which provides the adequate momentum to spin the paddle and also washes away biological growth.
The bottom line – if you don't have an adequate flow rate you need to either reduce the pipe diameter or find a different flow meter. You won't get satisfactory results trying to monitor flows below the recommended minimum value.
The pipe must be completely full of liquid! This is particularly an issue when the meter is installed on pipes that have a downward flow direction. Vertical pipes with a downward flow are the most prone to this issue. Huge flow variations will be noted on the meter if the pipe isn't full. On horizontal runs with partially filled pipes the results will be either no flow reading if the paddle isn't in the flow due to the meter being mounted on top of the pipe, or readings that are mysteriously high or erratic. Try to mount the meter in pipes that have upward flows. If this isn't possible a partially closed valve downstream will restrict the flow and keep the pipe full.
Flow meters that sample the flow rate in only part of the cross-sectional area of the pipe rely on the assumption that the flow rate is uniform in the pipe. To develop a uniform flow profile in the pipe, a sufficient straight section of pipe must be both upstream and downstream of the meter. I have experimented with flow straighteners, and found they help but are no substitute for adequate straight pipe.
The diagram is a general idea of necessary lengths of pipe needed to develop uniform flow and get accurate results from the flow meter.
If an adequate run of straight pipe isn't possible, a reduction in accuracy may result. Typically the error is uniform(linear) across the flow rate range. So if the flow rate can be determined by some other means, the flow meter can be adjusted to account for the error. On smaller pipes the flow can be run into a tank with a known volume for a period of time. The volume divided by the time will result in the flow rate (gallon/minute). The meter than can be calibrated using this value. The instruction manual contains an example detailing this scenario.
One of the most asked questions I get "I don't have enough straight run of pipe, how inaccurate will the meter be??" This question is impossible to answer. There are just too many variables effecting the flow profile in the pipe. Mounting locations with a lack of straight run pipe will still give good repeatability, it's the accuracy that might be poor. Many meters are only used to monitor flow and look for daily or weekly changes in flow rates. In these cases the accuracy isn't as important but repeatability is.
These flow meters are relatively simple devices and if the above installation guidelines are followed they should function as advertised. If you are having trouble I would like to hear from you. I have been helping people successfully install these meters for 30 years and I want you to be happy with your meter.


A file with the PDF file extension is a Portable Document Format file. Other types of files may also use the PDF file extension, though considering the popularity of the Portable Document Format this is unlikely.
The easiest way to open a PDF file is to double-click on it and let your PC decide which default application should open the file. If no program opens the PDF file, then you probably don't have an application installed that can view and edit PDF files.
However, Adobe Reader or another PDF reader program will open the PDF file. Adobe Reader, and most other PDF readers, are free downloads. Programs like the already mentioned Adobe Reader will open PDF files, as will program like Foxit Reader, Nitro PDF Reader, SumatraPDF, and many more.
Adobe Acrobat is the most popular PDF editor but Microsoft Word 2013 will do it too. Other PDF editors also exist, again from Foxit and Notro, among others.
1. Open the PDF file in its default program and choose to save the open files as another file format.
2. Use a third-party file conversion tool to convert the PDF file to another file format.
The first method is preferable because it's both easier and will probably result in a more accurate file conversion.
As you know, another situation is that you may want to download or copy the PDF files but just find you are prompted to remove the password protected the files. So, you must need to apply for Advanced PDF Password Remover 5.0, which can remove the restrictions on printing, editing, copying in seconds.


Libertarians' devotion to individual rights, and to laws in support of those rights, is unquestionable. Most of the laws favored by libertarians can be shown to be consistent with our individual rights — unlike the blatantly illegitimate laws advocated by socialists. Despite this, however, many libertarians overlook important procedural or structural requirements that must accompany any legal system in which substantively justifiable law can develop and last.

Beinwil am See (in einheimischer Mundart: Böiu, []) ist eine Einwohnergemeinde im Schweizer Kanton Aargau. Sie gehört zum Bezirk Kulm, liegt im Seetal am Westufer des Hallwilersees und grenzt an den Kanton Luzern. Bis 1950 lautete die offizielle Bezeichnung der Gemeinde Beinwil (Bezirk Kulm).

Geographie
Das lang gestreckte Dorf besteht aus mehreren Ortsteilen, die mit der Zeit zusammengewachsen sind. Der weitaus grösste Teil der Siedlung mit den Ortsteilen Hinterdorf, Vorstatt und Büel liegt auf einer schmalen Terrasse an den Osthängen des Ischlags und des Hombergs, rund siebzig Höhenmeter über dem Seespiegel. Zwischen diesen beiden Hügeln erstreckt sich ein flacher Ausläufer des Wynentals; der Übergang zwischen den beiden Tälern ist maximal 562 Meter hoch. Das Ufer des Hallwilersees ist weitgehend unverbaut, lediglich das kleine Unterdorf liegt direkt am See. Die fünf Dörfer Beinwil am See, Burg, Menziken, Reinach und Pfeffikon sind zu einer zusammenhängenden Agglomeration mit rund 20'000 Einwohnern verschmolzen, die Grenzen zwischen den einst getrennten Siedlungen sind kaum mehr erkennbar.

Die Fläche des Gemeindegebiets beträgt 382 Hektaren, davon sind 78 Hektaren bewaldet und 131 Hektaren überbaut. Der höchste Punkt befindet sich auf 660 Metern am Osthang des Hombergs, der tiefste auf 449 Metern am Ufer des Hallwilersees. Nachbargemeinden im Kanton Aargau sind Menziken im Südwesten, Reinach im Westen, Birrwil im Norden, Meisterschwanden im Nordosten und Fahrwangen im Osten. Auf der Luzerner Seite grenzt Beinwil im Südosten an Mosen sowie im Süden an Beromünster.

Geschichte

Im Jahr 1996 wurde im Gebiet Ägelmoos auf einer ufernahen Strandplatte eine Seeufersiedlung (Pfahlbaudorf) entdeckt (siehe Beinwil am See–Ägelmoos). Diese war vermutlich in der Jungstein-, Frühbronze- und Spätbronzezeit besiedelt, d. h. im Zeitraum zwischen 4500 v. Chr. und 850 v. Chr. Beinwil am See-Ägelmoos könnte somit zu den frühesten Seeufersiedlungen des Schweizer Mittellandes gehören. Die Siedlungsreste liegen heute (2019) im Hallwilersee vollständig unter Wasser. Als Schutzmassnahme wurden sie 2017 mit einer Geotextil- und einer Kies-Schicht zugedeckt. Seit 2011 ist der Fundplatz Teil des UNESCO-Welterbes «Prähistorische Pfahlbauten um die Alpen».

1928–31 kamen bei Grabungen Mauerreste eines römischen Gutshofes zum Vorschein, daneben auch ein Ziegelstempel der 21. Legion und Terra-Sigillata-Gefässe des späten 2. Jahrhunderts. Die ersten schriftlichen Erwähnungen des Dorfs stammen aus dem 11. Jahrhundert (1045 vineta autem in … Peinuuilare … in Beinwile; 1036 id est Rinacha, Beinwile). Der Ortsname geht zurück auf eine Zusammensetzung aus einem althochdeutschen Personennamen Bāgo oder Beino/Peino und dem bei alamannischen Gründungen häufigen Hinterglied -wīlāri zur Bezeichnung neuer Hofsiedlungen.

Im Mittelalter lag das Dorf im Herrschaftsbereich der Grafen von Lenzburg, ab 1173 in jenem der Grafen von Kyburg. Nachdem diese ausgestorben waren, übernahmen die Habsburger im Jahr 1273 die Landesherrschaft und die Blutgerichtsbarkeit. Im Namen dieser Adelshäuser herrschten die erstmals 1153 erwähnten Herren von Beinwil über das Dorf. Das Geschlecht besass lediglich lokale Bedeutung und erlosch Mitte des 14. Jahrhunderts, der Standort ihrer Burg lässt sich nicht mehr genau feststellen.

1415 eroberten die Eidgenossen den Aargau. Beinwil gehörte nun zum Untertanengebiet der Stadt Bern, dem so genannten Berner Aargau. Die niedere Gerichtsbarkeit war um 1300 zunächst an die Truchsessen von Wolhusen gelangt, im Jahr 1501 an das Chorherrenstift Beromünster. Schliesslich wurde sie 1520 durch Bern käuflich erworben, woraufhin Beinwil einen eigenen Gerichtsbezirk innerhalb des Amtes Lenzburg bildete. Die Zehnten und Bodenzinsen mussten grösstenteils weiterhin an Beromünster entrichtet werden, selbst nach Einführung der Reformation im Jahr 1528. Im März 1798 befreite sich die Bevölkerung mit Hilfe der einmarschierten französischen Truppen vom Joch der «Gnädigen Herren» von Bern, woraufhin die Franzosen die Helvetische Republik ausriefen. Beinwil gehört seither zum damals gegründeten Kanton Aargau.

Zwar hatte sich die Verarbeitung von Baumwolle bereits im 18. Jahrhundert etabliert, doch erst mit der Gründung der ersten Zigarrenfabrik im Jahr 1841 begann der wirtschaftliche Aufschwung. Am 3. September 1883 erhielt die Gemeinde einen Anschluss ans Eisenbahnnetz, als das erste Teilstück der Seetalbahn zwischen Luzern und Beinwil am See eröffnet wurde; die Verlängerung nach Lenzburg folgte am 15. Oktober desselben Jahres. Am 23. Januar 1887 nahm die Zweigstrecke nach Reinach den Betrieb auf. Zeitweise gab es im Dorf nicht weniger als zwanzig Zigarrenfabriken, doch im Verlaufe des 20. Jahrhunderts wurde die Tabakindustrie allmählich durch andere Branchen verdrängt. 1950 ersetzte die Gemeinde die bisherige Bezeichnung Beinwil (Bezirk Kulm) durch Beinwil am See.

Sehenswürdigkeiten

In Beinwil stehen zwei Kirchen neueren Datums. Die reformierte Kirche wurde erst 1935 eingeweiht, weil das Dorf seit der Einführung der Reformation bis 1932 der Pfarrei Reinach angehörte. Von der kleinen Kapelle, die 1852 abgebrochen worden ist, wurden einzelne Elemente für den Neubau übernommen. Die römisch-katholische Kirche, die zur Pfarrgemeinde Menziken-Reinach gehört, entstand 1964.

Wappen
Die Blasonierung des Gemeindewappens lautet: «In Weiss schräglinke blaue Spitze.» Dabei handelt es sich um das Wappen der Herren von Beinwil. Das ursprüngliche, seit 1598 bestehende Wappen zeigte einen Kahn mit zwei Fährleuten auf dem See. Dieses Motiv liess sich heraldisch nie überzeugend umsetzen. Ab 1945 verzierten verschiedene örtliche Unternehmen ihre Verpackungen mit dem Wappen der Herren von Beinwil, welches sich rasch durchsetzte und 1952 offiziell eingeführt wurde.

Bevölkerung
Die Einwohnerzahlen entwickelten sich wie folgt:

Am  lebten  Menschen in Beinwil am See, der Ausländeranteil betrug  %. Bei der Volkszählung 2015 bezeichneten sich 42,7 % als reformiert und 21,0 % als römisch-katholisch; 36,3 % waren konfessionslos oder gehörten anderen Glaubensrichtungen an. 94,9 % gaben bei der Volkszählung 2000 Deutsch als ihre Hauptsprache an, 1,4 % Albanisch sowie je 0,7 % Italienisch und Serbokroatisch.

Politik und Recht
Die Versammlung der Stimmberechtigten, die Gemeindeversammlung, übt die Legislativgewalt aus. Ausführende Behörde ist der fünfköpfige Gemeinderat. Er wird im Majorzverfahren vom Volk gewählt, seine Amtsdauer beträgt vier Jahre. Der Gemeinderat führt und repräsentiert die Gemeinde. Dazu vollzieht er die Beschlüsse der Gemeindeversammlung und die Aufgaben, die ihm vom Kanton zugeteilt wurden. Für Rechtsstreitigkeiten ist in erster Instanz das Bezirksgericht Kulm zuständig. Beinwil am See gehört zum Friedensrichterkreis IX (Unterkulm).

Wirtschaft
In Beinwil am See gibt es gemäss der im Jahr 2015 erhobenen Statistik der Unternehmensstruktur (STATENT) rund 960 Arbeitsplätze, davon 3 % in der Landwirtschaft, 23 % in der Industrie und 74 % im Dienstleistungsbereich. Die wichtigsten Industriezweige sind die Herstellung von Confiserie, Zigarren und Möbeln sowie der Pumpen- und Motorenbau und die Baustoff-Prüftechnologie. Eine gewisse Bedeutung besitzt auch der Tourismus (Ausflugsverkehr auf dem Hallwilersee). Die meisten Erwerbstätigen sind Wegpendler und arbeiten im oberen Wynental (Reinach/Menziken).

Verkehr

Durch das Dorf verläuft die Hauptstrasse 26 von Lenzburg über Hochdorf nach Luzern. Von dieser zweigt die Kantonsstrasse 290 ins Wynental nach Reinach ab. Beinwil wird von der Seetalbahn der SBB erschlossen. Die Zweigstrecke nach Beromünster ist seit 1991 für den Personenverkehr und seit 1999 auch für den Güterverkehr geschlossen. An ihre Stelle traten zwei Postautolinien nach Beromünster und Sursee. Am Seeufer gibt es eine Anlegestelle der Schifffahrtsgesellschaft Hallwilersee.

Bildung
Die Gemeinde verfügt über drei Kindergärten und zwei Schulhäuser, in denen die Primarschule unterrichtet wird. Alle Oberstufen (Realschule, Sekundarschule und Bezirksschule) können in Reinach besucht werden. Die nächstgelegenen Gymnasien sind die Alte Kantonsschule und die Neue Kantonsschule, beide in Aarau.

Persönlichkeiten
Beinwil am See ist der Bürgerort des früheren Bundesrates Hans-Rudolf Merz. Hier sind der Grafiker Herbert Leupin (1916–1999) und der Soziologe Ueli Mäder (* 1951) geboren. Der Pilot und Fahrzeugkonstrukteur Ludwig Weber wohnte von 1975 bis zu seinem Tod im Jahr 1991 in Beinwil am See und ist dort auch bestattet.

An assessment of global particulate nitrate and ammonium aerosol based on simulations from nine models participating in the Aerosol Comparisons between Observations and Models (AeroCom) phase III study is presented. A budget analysis was conducted to understand the typical magnitude, distribution, and diversity of the aerosols and their precursors among the models. To gain confidence regarding model performance, the model results were evaluated with various observations globally, including ground station measurements over North America, Europe, and east Asia for tracer concentrations and dry and wet depositions, as well as with aircraft measurements in the Northern Hemisphere mid-to-high latitudes for tracer vertical distributions. Given the unique chemical and physical features of the nitrate occurrence, we further investigated the similarity and differentiation among the models by examining (1) the pH-dependent NH3 wet deposition; (2) the nitrate formation via heterogeneous chemistry on the surface of dust and sea salt particles or thermodynamic equilibrium calculation including dust and sea salt ions; and (3) the nitrate coarse-mode fraction (i.e., coarse/total). It is found that HNO3, which is simulated explicitly based on full O3-HOx-NOx-aerosol chemistry by all models, differs by up to a factor of 9 among the models in its global tropospheric burden. This partially contributes to a large difference in NO3-, whose atmospheric burden differs by up to a factor of 13. The atmospheric burdens of NH3 and NH4+ differ by 17 and 4, respectively. Analyses at the process level show that the large diversity in atmospheric burdens of NO3-, NH3, and NH4+ is also related to deposition processes. Wet deposition seems to be the dominant process in determining the diversity in NH3 and NH4+ lifetimes. It is critical to correctly account for contributions of heterogeneous chemical production of nitrate on dust and sea salt, because this process overwhelmingly controls atmospheric nitrate production (typically > 80%) and determines the coarse- and fine-mode distribution of nitrate aerosol.

SPRINGFIELD, Vt. – 2020 marks the 100-year anniversary of the establishment of the Springfield Landing Field as the first officially approved airport in Vermont. On Feb. 16, 2019 at 2 p.m., Bruce Johnson and Peter MacGillivray will present a program at the Springfield Art and Historical Society, 65 Route 106, North Springfield. They will take a look back at some of the highlights of the past century at the Springfield Airport.
The airport has played an important role in Springfield's economic life as was envisioned by James Hartness in the early days of the aviation era. From biplanes and gliders to the modern business jets, many unusual aircraft and their pilots and passengers have landed and departed from the runways of Hartness State airport. With the longest runway in Vermont with the exception of Burlington International airport, Springfield is able to provide service to most aircraft. We encourage you to attend and if you have pictures, stories, and other memorabilia, please bring them with you to share and to help us to better prepare to mark the 100-year anniversary as a very special event.
This program is free and open to all. For more information, call 802-886-7935 or email sahs@vermontel.net.

Barnes Pitching With A Major Purpose
By By DOM AMORE and damore@courant.com
PAWTUCKET, R.I. — Matt Barnes caught the ball with an angry snatch, a loud pop. The runner had stolen second, reached third on an error, and was dusting himself off there as Barnes smoldered.
The 91 mph fastball had worked for Barnes the first three innings, but not now.
"In situations like that, when I need more, I can go and get more," Barnes says. "They haven't seen it. I'm trying to make the fastball play like two different pitches."
So now, Barnes, 6 feet 4 and 205 pounds, was throwing 95 and 96 mph, and he blew third strikes past Tyler Moore, Brandon Laird and Greg Dobbs, the middle of the Syracuse lineup. The latter two batters have significant major league experience.

A veteran scout nodded and said, "That's what the good ones do."
Since mid-July, Barnes, from Bethel and UConn, a first-round pick of the Red Sox in 2011, has "dialed it up," pitching with purpose. In seven starts between July 22 and Aug. 25 for Boston's Triple A affiliate, he went 4-1 with a 1.77 ERA, highlighted by seven innings of no-hit ball Aug. 2.
The following inning, the fifth on Saturday night, Syracuse loaded the bases and Barnes struck out two more. But he threw a wild pitch and then an ill-advised changeup to Steven Souza, the International League's MVP, and it went for a two-run double. Barnes allowed five runs this time, but walked none and struck out 10 in seven innings — another real reminder that he is fast becoming the pitcher the Red Sox projected.
"His fastball was explosive," Pawtucket manager Kevin Boles said, "and the command … that was very encouraging."
Barnes' three-year journey through the minor league chain of the Red Sox has had its ups and downs, but he has everything going well at the perfect time.

At the end of July, the Red Sox, resigned to last place in the AL East, traded away four of their five starting pitchers — Jon Lester, John Lackey, Jake Peavy and Felix Doubront. The opportunity for advancement is there, and several of Barnes' minor league contemporaries, Anthony Ranaudo, Allen Webster, Brandon Workman, Rubby de la Rosa among them, have had their auditions.
Three of his former UConn teammates, Mike Olt, George Springer and Nick Ahmed, have made it to the big leagues this season. Now Barnes, 24, is pitching for his chance.
"Obviously, it opens your eyes a little bit when you see guys like Lester and Lackey and Peavy getting traded away," Barnes says. "There may are a couple of open spots, or readily available spots, but you've still got to go out and perform. It doesn't matter if there's an open spot or not, if you're not performing it's not going to make a difference.
"When it's right there on your doorstep, it gives you just a little bit of extra incentive."
Barnes' breakthrough at the Triple A level is the result of taking all that he has developed, one step at a time, and putting it together. His first five starts as a pro in 2012, at Greenville (S.C.) in the South Atlantic League, were ridiculously easy — his ERA was 0.34 — and all Barnes needed was the fastball. Later in 2012, he went to advanced Class A, at Salem (Va.), and his ERA rose to 3.58.

"First year, I used predominantly fastballs," he says, "I didn't have to use much else the first half of that year. Last year [at Double A Portland], it was more working on being able to command the secondary pitches, period. This year, now that I feel I can command all three of them on pretty much any count, it's then learning how to use them in those counts. So it's been kind of a three-year progression. The last month and a half, I've figured out how to use what I have."
Barnes was 4-7 with a 5.06 ERA at Pawtucket when a sit-down with pitching coach Rich Sauveur yielded a new plan. He attacks hitters early with his fastball and changeup, and then aims to put them away with his curveball.
"He's learned a lot about how to pitch," Sauveur says. "He has three real good pitches, and he's learned to utilize them correctly. Before, he was using his curve as a get-over pitch, getting behind in counts. He's got a lot more confidence now. When you start to string outings like that together, your confidence just builds."
With the league's better hitters — Barnes names Souza, Yankees prospect Jose Pirela at Scranton and Kevin Pillar, who has since been promoted from Buffalo to the Blue Jays, among them — Barnes talks of "working to thirds" of the plate, rather than halves — another of the finer points he is mastering.
After two improved starts in late July, Barnes was at his best against Columbus, his first start after the parent club made all those trades. No hits, two walks, 10 strikeouts — and he did not want to come out after throwing 106 pitches through seven innings.

"He texted me after that game and he was angry," UConn coach Jim Penders said, "I loved that. A couple of years ago, he might have said, 'You know, they're being careful with me.' But he did not want to come out of that game."
Barnes has since grudgingly accepted that "there is a bigger agenda than a Triple A no-hitter."
MLB rosters expand to 40 on Monday, but he is not yet on the Red Sox's 40-man. He must be added to it soon to avoid being available in the Rule 5 draft in December, and the Red Sox could open up a spot at any time.

Barnes pitched 113 innings in 2013, and is now at 127 with no sign of wearing down. He was still throwing 95 mph as he crossed the 100-pitch mark on Saturday night.
"I feel great right now," he says, "It's like I'm in midseason form, with a couple of games left in the season."
Typically, teams like to increase a young pitcher's workload by about 30 percent year to year, so Barnes probably has three or four more starts in 2014. Will they be for Pawtucket in the International League playoffs? Or will the Barnes family have to drive a little further, to Boston, in September?
"We're all just trying to get our work in down here," Barnes says, "and put ourselves in a position to make a difficult decision for somebody."

Bombay HC nod for redevelopment of Cuffe Parade slums
The 30-storey buildings under the project are expected to house about 7,000 families in SoBo slum areas
Observing that the SRA scheme is to mitigate the hardships of the slum dwellers, the Bombay High Court last week cleared the decks for the redevelopment of the slum areas in the city's plush Cuffe Parade.
The HC's order in favor of Shapoorji Pallonji group's Precautions Properties would pave way for rehabilitation of over 7,000 slum dwellers in South Mumbai.
Notably, the 30-storey buildings are expected to be constructed by the group at the site to house about 7,000 families.
A Bench of Justices Nitin Jamdar and Milind Jadhav was seized with a plea filed by Precautions' rival Diana Estate, which was supported by a proposed housing society of the slum dwellers challenging the decision of the SRA allowing the former to redevelop the over 28 acre land.
The rival group claimed it has the support of the mandatory 70 per cent of the slum dwellers. They also picked up various technical points to buttress their case.
The judges, however, noted that the Precautions group was having support of nearly 89 per cent of the slum people.
The Bench further took into account the fact that the rehab project has been pending for the last 20 years.
"Slum dwellers have been waiting for rehabilitation for over two decades. They submit that the only consequence of setting aside the impugned order (allowing Precautions to develop the site) will be that the process will start all over again, meaning the slum dwellers will continue living in squalid conditions," the judges observed.
"Ultimately such schemes are implemented to mitigate the hardship of the slum dwellers and they should not be casually set aside by the courts only on technical grounds unless a case of gross illegalities or failure of justice is made out. Considering the totality of the circumstances, we conclude that no interference in writ jurisdiction is warranted. The petition is dismissed," the judges held.

Turbo Brown – From Homeless To Art World Rising Star
We have a new exhibition opening this month in Gallery 2 featuring the works of Turbo Brown. Turbo has made a bit of a name for himself painting these very direct images of birds and animals from the Australian bush.
Born in 1967, Trevor 'Turbo' Brown is a Latje Latje man who grew up in Mildura in Victoria. As a youngster he had a hard life. He was born with an intellectual disability and was abandoned by his own family when he was quite small. He seems to have more or less brought himself up on the banks of the Murray River.
As he headed into his teenage years Turbo was adopted by an older family, Uncle Herb Batten and his wife, Aunty Bunta. They subsequently took Turbo with them when they moved to Melbourne. At this point his life improved from those difficult early days. He went to painting classes with his adopted parents and found he had a real knack for storytelling. As well as being an artist Turbo trained in boxing and became a "keen rapper". His nickname Turbo comes from the 1984 breakdance movie Breakin'.
Turbo paints the mood of the animal world. He says it reminds him of the time when he was homeless and living out on the riverbanks and animals were his only friends.
In this exhibition you'll see these very alive paintings of kookaburras calling out first thing in the morning, and birds in flight, and rows of galahs on fence-lines. There are all sorts of animals in his paintings and he uses imaginative freelance too. You'll see subjects like whales and numbats. In one painting there's a wall of echidnas stomping across the country.
He has a fantastic imaginative but probably more emotional kind of release in the paintings. Often the sun's bursting out and the birds are singing or winging through the sky. You can see that he's creating a world that was pretty important. It got him out of his own more difficult times and into the natural world, which he preferred to be in.
He paints with a real directness in a naive style. You can see the brush strokes, he puts big layers of colours on. He's got flying parrots with fantastic colours of reds and greens as they fly across the sky or are perched in the trees. People can respond very quickly to the type of artwork he does.
Turbo's work has been widely exhibited since 2001 and he has had over ten solo exhibitions. A number of his paintings are included in important collections such as the National Gallery of Australia as well as the National Gallery of Victoria.
This is fresh exciting work and I hope you get a chance to see this exhibition when it opens on 19 February.

Pritchard has declared for the NBA Draft, John Canzano of The Oregonian reports.
Pritchard still has one more year of eligibility remaining, so it's unclear if he has intentions on sticking in the draft or if he's mainly looking for feedback from scouts. He saw his stats take a dip this past year, with averages of 12.9 points and 4.6 assists down from his sophomore season averages of 14.5 and 4.8. That mostly could likely be limited to a step back in his shooting percentages as he only shot 33 percent from three this past season. Once he sees what he'll be projected as in the draft, he'll have until May 29 to make his decision on whether or not he wants to stay in.
Pritchard led the Ducks with 18 points (7-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) to go with seven assists and four rebounds in the win over UC-Irvine in the second round of the NCAA tournament on Sunday.
Pritchard had a game-high 20 points (7-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT) to go along with seven assists, six rebounds and four steals across 35 minutes in Saturday's 68-48 victory over Washington.
Pritchard put up 16 points (5-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-5 FT), five steals, three assists and three rebounds across 37 minutes in Saturday's 55-47 victory over Washington.
Pritchard had 20 points (8-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 37 minutes in Suynday's 69-46 victory over Stanford.
Pritchard dropped eight points (2-9 FG, 0-2 3 Pt, 4-4 FT) to go along with four rebounds, four assists, two steals and one block during Thursday's 59-54 win over Arizona.

Q: Properties of the Riemann zeta function I have begun studying the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$, particularly Titchmarsh's book, and have come up with two questions that I have been unable to find an answer to.
They are:

*

*Let $c>0$ be a constant and $\sigma_1=\sigma_2>1/2$. Is the function $\dfrac{\zeta(\sigma_1+i(t+c))}{\zeta(\sigma_2+it)}$ analytic?

*Again, let $\sigma_1=\sigma_2>1/2$. Is there a constant $A>0$ such that $\dfrac{\zeta(\sigma_1+i(t+c))}{\zeta(\sigma_2+it)}<A$ for all $t>t_0>0$?
I believe the answer to be yes to both. The first because $\zeta(s)$ is analytic and the second because by varying $t$ by a bounded amount, I think that the function should be bounded itself.

Born in New York City and raised in suburban New Jersey, Jerome lives by the motto "Where there's a will, there's a way." He went to college at Temple University in Philadelphia, where he took a semester off to pedal across the United States. It was on that journey that he caught the bug. Since then he's pedaled thousands of miles all over North America, including a two-month trip through Washington state and British Columbia. If there's one thing he's learned from bicycle touring, it's that the journey is the destination. While not on the road, he loves extending the same generous hospitality that strangers have shared with him by hosting fellow travelers.

No. The breakdown of the family is the advance of culture, and the alternative was not maintaining the family intact vs. the Great Society; it was the breakdown of the family without the Great Society programs to fall back on (what we've seen since the War on Poverty was more or less abandoned under Carter-Reagan), or the breakdown of the family but with the Great Society to pick up where the family had failed.
That is ridiculous. You know that, right? You are just making sh*t totally up and acting like it is unassailable. It doesn't even rise to the level of deserving a response - it's nonsense!
That capitalism was progressively breaking down the family was observed in the Communist Manifesto and included in the remark "all that is solid melts into air." The fact is that capitalism cannot serve two masters, and it sacrifices the family the same way it sacrifices all other values to its jealous god Mammon.

While scrap metal singapore see a large quantity of these metals from the trade industry, homeowners are always welcomed and encouraged to bring their own metal scrap to earn some money and recycle the metals at the right place. How To Determine Different Type Of Metals? Determining if you have a ferrous or non-ferrous metal and separating it is the first important step before bringing it to be recycled. The easiest and most common way to figure out what kind of metal you have is by grabbing a magnet.If the magnet sticks to your metal: You have a ferrous metal in your hands, something common like steel or iron. Ferrous metal is not worth very much when you bring it to the scrap yard, but the scrap yard will still accept it and make sure it is recycled properly. If the magnet does not stick to your metal: The metal you have is a non-ferrous metal. Many common metals, like copper, aluminum, brass, stainless steel and bronze are categorized as non-ferrous metals. These metals are very valuable to recycle and are worth more money at the scrap yard. Once you have your metals separated, give your local scrap yard a call to see what metals they accept and get insight on their procedures so you know before you go.Homeowners feel intimidated going to a scrap metal yard, but making sure you have your metals separated the best of your ability is the step in the right direction. Some scrap yards will require you to pull up to their doors and unload your metal onto their scale, where other yards will take it out themselves.

A Kilsyth street is celebrating after being approved funding to improve play facilities for local children.
At last week's Local Area Partnership meeting the Rennie Road Community Alliance (RRCA) campaign to create much-needed facilities for young people was given £40,000 of Local Area Development funding.
RRCA founder Kevin Kane said: "I am delighted to report that I met with Councillor Heather McVey who confirmed the £40,000 funding from the Local Area Partnership to bring play facilities to our street.
"The Rennie Road Community Alliance has been fighting hard since we established our group in the summer of 2017 to improve the area and put Rennie Road on the map.
"We have been particularly focused in our campaign to see the creation of play facilities for the many children in our area, so for us to secure this funding is a fantastic development.
"This award will help breathe life and pride into Rennie Road, as well as the wider Northfield area, and I'm now looking forward to working on what our street's play facilities might look like and involving as many local families as possible in that process.
"We are not there yet, however this investment is a sign of confidence in what Rennie Road can achieve and a significant step towards bringing play facilities to the area and I hope it will give people confidence in what we can do when we all come together.
RRCA campaigns officer Katrina Coyle added: "Rennie Road doesn't have anything for children, so I am happy there is something planned for the many kids in the area.
Councillor McVey is passionate about play services and is looking forward to helping RRCA move forward with the project.
She said: "I am delighted funding has been agreed to get Rennie Road on the list to enable play facilities in the street.
"I look forward to further discussions with local area teams and representatives from The Rennie Road Community Alliance on how to deliver the project".

The primary dimensions of the GLP are leadership vision and its partner, strategy, both of which have a dominant place within the program. What flows from the emphasis on vision is the necessity of understanding contexts before formulating and deploying a strategy. With this in mind, the GLP focuses on expanding awareness and understanding of external contexts and building the personal capacity to purposefully lead in an increasingly complex and erratic global environment.

Michelin breaks ground on plant in León, Mexico
LEÓN, Mexico (Aug. 24, 2016) — Group Michelin has started construction in Mexico of its 21st factory in North America — eight years after the global economic crisis of 2008 forced it to postpone the project.
"I'm really excited because a few years ago, in 2008, I had to come to this country to postpone our investment because of the crisis," Michelin CEO Jean-Dominique Senard told Tire Business Aug. 22.
"At the same time I was incredibly impressed by the way the Mexican authorities took the news. So coming back with the decision (to revive the project) is a joy."
Mr. Senard had earlier hosted a groundbreaking ceremony at the 242-acre site in central Mexico where the French tire company is investing $510 million in what, according to one senior executive, will be Michelin's first greenfield passenger tire plant in North America in three decades.
In a speech, Mr. Senard said the León investment is the tire maker's largest investment anywhere in 2016.
"The last time we launched a greenfield passenger tire plant in North America was over 30 years ago," Scott Clark, executive vice president and COO of Michelin North America, said in a separate interview with Tire Business.
"So this is not something we do every day. This is a big deal and this is exactly the right place to be and at the right time."
The factory, which will employ 1,000 when finished in late 2018, will be within a three-hour drive of 18 car maker assembly plants, Mr. Clark said. It is located in a new industrial park called León-Bajio, which stands beside the León-Silao highway.
The facility will have an annual installed production capacity of between 4 million and 5 million Michelin-brand tires, mostly in 18-inch-plus sizes for North American original equipment and replacement markets.
The plant's output will "reflect the tremendous growth in the SUV, CUV and pickup markets, followed closely by high-performance tires," Mr. Clark said. Most of the replacement tires will go to the U.S. and Canada, he added.
The plant, which will cover 1.5 million square feet, will have its own rubber mixing capabilities, according to the executive — something which he said is "not completely unique in the Michelin group."
Asked about possible expansion plans, he said: "We take it one step at a time. We have almost (240 acres), which is an enormous amount of space. The likelihood of the plant expanding is very high."
"There's no plan as we speak to expand (this plant). But it's bound to expand one day," Mr. Senard replied when asked the same question.
Michelin already employs 700 in Mexico, primarily at a plant in Querétaro, 107 miles southeast of Leon, which makes non-Michelin brand tires such as BFGoodrich, Uniroyal, Taurus and Tigar. The plant has an installed annual capacity of 2 million tires.
Pete Selleck, chairman and president, Michelin North America Inc., told Tire Business separately that Michelin has "figured out how to operate within Mexico's labor laws, which has given us much more confidence in taking this huge step (in León)."
He said that "labor issues" forced the company to mothball the Querétaro facility between August 2000 and April 2002.
"We had a situation that was untenable. I was involved. We tried to resolve it."
Closing the plant, he said, was "one of the most difficult decisions" as it meant several hundred jobs were lost.
Referring to the León project, known internally as MX2, he added: "I've been with the company for 34 years, and so for me it's very gratifying to see us reach this point."
Idelfonso Guajardo Villarreal, Mexico's federal economy secretary, told the groundbreaking ceremony's audience of several hundred that by year-end 2018 the Mexican tire industry's annual installed production capacity will be 31 million, compared with 21 million today.
"The new Michelin investment in Mexico represents a vote of confidence that strengthens the positioning of Mexico as an investment destination, because it comes from a company with a long tradition in the industry and widely recognized for its commitment to innovation," Mr. Guajardo Villarreal said.
Miguel Márquez Márquez, governor of the Estate of Guanajuato, Mexico, called Michelin's arrival the "most important investment for León so far" and said the tire maker's investment "will trigger social and economic development…."
León Mayor Héctor López Santillana said Michelin's choice of León recognizes the strengths we have and our ability to become an international economic actor.
"With this new plant, León will provide greater dynamism to the expanding automotive sector in the Bajio region. We are confident that together, we will open a new era of opportunities and shared development."

Acacia Park Cemetery and Mausoleum
Also known as: Acacia Park Cemetery Association,
Acacia Park Cemetery & Mausoleum Corporation
7800 West Irving Park Road (4000 North)
Norridge, Cook County, Illinois 60706 Norwood Park Township
SW quarter of Section 13 and SE 1/4 of sections 13 & 14 Township 40 Range: 12 Latitude/Longitude: 415714N 0874937W
Open: 1922.
Acacia was opened Chicago's far Northwest side in 1922. The first deed recorded was by the Acacia Park Cemetery Association on November 10, 1922. Early advertisements stated as "Exclusive to Masons and members of their families", but that policy was later changed. The first section of which, 25½ acres, was divided into 5,896 four-grave lots. The total sales of the lots in the first section were projected to be $975,000. The second division was developed in 1924, consisting of 46 acres, divided into 9,564 four-grave lots. A large mausoleum was built with Georgian marble in 1927. Acacia sold the northern half of the cemetery, 80 acres to the Westlawn Cemetery Association, whose main entrance is on Montrose Avenue (4400 north).
The western boundary of Acacia Cemetery is currently Pioneer Avenue. The eastern boundary of Acacia is Ozanam Avenue. The Northern boundary is Westlawn Cemetery. Irving Park Boulevard Cemetery is directly across the street to the south, with their entrance at about the southeast corner of Acacia. Acacia has two cemetery entrances on the north side of Irving Park Road (4000 North). In addition, there are two connecting roads at the northeast corner of Acacia that allow convenient access into Westlawn Cemetery, directly to the north. On a 1933 Chicago cemetery map, the Acacia address is unusually listed as Irving Park and Phillips Road.

All Saints is a large contemporary Catholic cemetery of 160 acres, opened in 1923 as a successor to Calvary Cemetery, Evanston which had reached near capacity. All Saints is on both the east and west sides of River Road. The older section on the east (left picture), with its beautiful iron gate was opened 1923. Sometimes referred to as All Saints East, this section is most visually appealing.
The newer section on the west side of River Road, sometimes referred to as All Saints West, opened 1954.(Right picture) An interment chapel was built in 1961. A 20,000‑crypt community mausoleum was built in 1976, and was dedicated by Cardinal Cody. In 2001, the Immaculate Heart of Mary Garden Mausoleum was dedicated by Cardinal Frances George. All Saints is in excellent condition. An office is on the premises to help with burial information. The images of many interment cards are now online.

All Saints began as an Illinois corporation with Constantine M. Mazarr as acting President. A plat document #10251822 dated January 8, 1929 shows 77 acres. The enterprise apparently was a victim of the great depression. Financial difficulties began almost immediately and resulted in mechanical liens filed against the corporation as early as July 2, 1929. The surveyor, the concrete contractor, the fence contractor and others made financial claims against the corporation. The only cemetery lot recorded with the county, while under All Saints ownership, was sold to Emmanuel K. Kourekis on December 6, 1929. Other burials should be on record in the cemetery office.
Further record of the cemetery following the 1929 failure is not well known. Cook County land records show an ownership transfer in 1948 from Metro Trust to the Melrose Memorial Corporation. The cemetery was renamed Memorial Estates. Memorial Estates Inc. defaulted on a mortgage and declared bankruptcy about 1991.
The cemetery was again renamed, this time Fairview Memorial Park Cemetery. (See that listing for the current information at this location). In 1990, Fairview, with its nagging financial problems, was sold to a bank at auction. Although the cemetery began for members of the Greek Orthodox faith, It is now best described as a for-profit community cemetery. It appears that the most western 30 acres, that area west of Addison Creek, was sold at some point in time. A housing development, King Arthur Court apartments (now condos) were built in the 1960's. That project is accessed by King Arthur Road. It is assumed that this land was probably not used for burials.

Altenheim (German word meaning Elder's Home) opened in 1878, with the current building dedicated May, 1885. The institution provided an attractive living option retirement community for the extensive German population in Chicagoland, It quickly became a self sufficient community. In its early days, Altenheim had its animals for farming purposes. Pig pens, chicken coops, and cows. Other features included a one lane bowling alley, windmills, a merry-go-round and picnic area used for social gatherings. The original Victorian building has been part of three movies. In 1973, 20th Century Fox film "Harry And Tonto. In 1988, the movie "The Package" with Gene Hackman. And in 1995, the movie "The Babe" with John Goodman.
The burial ground of about five acres, opened about 1895 behind the Altenheim home in the southwest corner of the grounds. This simple but quite interesting institutional ground has exclusively served the burial needs of the home. There are some 300 to 900 gravestones, which run in rows from south to north, the oldest in the southwest corner of the cemetery are often unreadable or gone. Gravestones are of a plain, unvarying design made of formed concrete poured over a red brick base. Some inscriptions have letters inverted or in the wrong order resulting from letters incorrectly placed in the mold. Space limitations may have also caused the reuse of the oldest sections. Some of carry the inscription inscription "HIER RUHT" (here rests). Birth dates can be found ranging from 1811 to 1904 Most death dates on existing stones range between 1895 and 1978. An obituary in July 1895 for Hans Diedrickson age 88, states, but unverified) that he was the first burial in the cemetery.
Inscriptions and the layout map were recorded and published by members of the Chicago Genealogical Society on July 29, 1989. Participants were: Barbara Baker, Allison Childs, Blanche Childs, Brian Scott Donovan, Barry Fleig (cemetery chairman at the time), Grace Horner, Diane Liesinger, Maxine Liesinger, Olga Liesinger, Diane and David McClure. Allison and Blanche Childs who also handled computer input of all the material. It was published in the Chicago Genealogist, Spring 1990 . One copy is in the Family History Center in Salt Lake. The Altenheim office also has some original records.

If your little artistes deserve a step up from the fridge, check out this cute idea we spotted: a kid-centric gallery wall.
It's amazing how adding frames and some smart styling to kids' art really elevates the whole look.
And if you don't have a whole wall available, we can picture any of these abstract kid's paintings fitting in seamlessly alongside other prints or drawings in a more traditional gallery wall. We bet your little ones will feel pretty special to have their offerings hung in a position of honor with other art.
Tell us, have you tried this technique? How do you like to display your kids' art?


text:
Q: SELECT statement not using possible_keys I have a table from a legacy system which does not have a primary key. It records transactional data for issuing materials in a factory.
For simplicities sake, lets say each row contains job_number, part_number, quantity & date_issued.
I added an index to the date issued column. When I run an EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM issued_parts WHERE date_issued > '20100101', it shows this:

+----+-------------+----------------+------+-------------------+------+---------+------+---------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table          | type | possible_keys     | key  | key_len | ref  | rows    | Extra       |
+----+-------------+----------------+------+-------------------+------+---------+------+---------+-------------+
|  1 | SIMPLE      | issued_parts   | ALL  | date_issued_alloc | NULL | NULL    | NULL | 9724620 | Using where |
+----+-------------+----------------+------+-------------------+------+---------+------+---------+-------------+

So it sees the key, but it doesn't use it?
Can someone explain why?

A: Something tells me the MySQL Query Optimizer decided correctly.
Here is how you can tell. Run these:
Count of Rows
SELECT COUNT(1) FROM issued_parts;

Count of Rows Matching Your Query
SELECT COUNT(1) FROM issued_parts WHERE date_issued > '20100101';

If the number of rows you are actually retrieving exceeds 5% of the table's total number, the MySQL Query Optimizer decides it would be less effort to do a full table scan.
Now, if your query was more exact, for example, with this:
SELECT * FROM issued_parts WHERE date_issued = '20100101';

then, you will get a different EXPLAIN plan altogether.

A: possible_keys names keys with the relevant columns in, but that doesn't mean that each key in it is going to be useful for the query. In this case, none are.

A: There are multiple types of indexes (indices?). A hash index is a fast way to do a lookup on an item given a specific value. If you have a bunch of discreet values that you are querying against, (for example, a list of 10 dates) then you can calculate a hash for each of those values, and look them up in the index. Since you aren't doing a lookup on a specific value, but rather doing a comparison, a hash index won't help you.
On the other hand, a B-Tree index can help you because it gives an ordering to the elements it is indexing. For instance, see here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysql-indexes.html for mysql (search for B-Tree Index Characteristics) . You may want to check that your table is using a b-tree index for it's index column.

A Comparison Between the Impact of Rhetorical Argumentation and Narrating Stories as Communicative Tasks on Achieving the Mastery of Fluency and Accuracy
The present study is an investigation of the impact of the patterns of rhetorical argumentation, and narrating stories (together with describing past experiences) on students' fluency and accuracy in speaking. Accordingly, the merit of speaking in any language is entirely based on identifying the components of speaking to design comprehensive tasks each in its specific context (Nunan, 1984), while the criterion for evaluating speaking a second or a foreign language is divided into fluency and accuracy (Brumfit, 1984). In the same sense, fluency and accuracy are two broad to be considered as components of speaking, specifically when it comes to testing the communicative proficiency of the students. Consequently, the task of identifying precisely the components of fluency and accuracy can be traced to the organizational patterns of speaking and the implementation of the different tasks to promote speaking.

Lake Geneva mansion sells for $17M
A six-bedroom, 12,280-square-foot vintage lakefront mansion on 20.5 acres in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin sold for $17 million Friday.
The mansion known as Villa Hortensia is located next to the best-selling mansion on Lake Geneva in history. The mansion was purchased by Chicago-area billionaire J. Christopher Reyes and his wife Anne from the estate of the late investment manager Richard Dollyhouse in January for $36 million.
Villa Hortensia is now sold for the second highest price on Lake Geneva in an off-market transaction, but less than half the record amount Reyes paid for Glanworth Gardens. Built in 1906 and designed by architect Howard Van Doren His Shaw, Villa Hortensia has been sold to a buyer who has not yet been publicly identified.
Sellers Ralph and Sally MacDonald purchased the mansion in 1997 and first went public in May 2021 for $20.75 million. He then sold it for $18.5 million before taking it off the market. Realtor Wendy Murphy of the d'aprile property, which specializes in selling luxury properties in the Lake Geneva region, contacted McDonald's and received an offer from a customer who would not reveal her identity, and the deal was closed.
The Mediterranean-style Snake Road Mansion, complete with Arts and Crafts details, was built for Edwin Swift of Swift's family of butchers, who named Villa Hortensia after his wife Hortense. The stuccoed mansion has a red Spanish tile roof, 11 bathrooms, a domed entrance hall, a grand vaulted hall on the second floor, oak floors and original woodwork. Outside the property are original buildings including 502 feet of lakefront, two piers, a private boat launch, an in-ground pool, clay tennis courts, and a three-bedroom guest house.
Villa Hortensia, known as Edgewood in the 1940s, has been the subject of recent speculation about its fate under new buyers, possibly in need of a major renovation and could face a wrecking ball. .
Other big-ticket Lake Leman area sales include last year's sale of a 10-bedroom, 13,000-square-foot lakefront mansion to Thomas Tisbo for $12.75 million, and an Elmhurst woman's sale of a previously demolished building. That includes over $13 million spent to assemble it. Condo in an Italian Renaissance lakefront mansion known as Stone Manor. However, not all of Stone Manor's units have been consolidated under her ownership yet.

Q: How to console each value of number array with setInterval of the value as seconds Reactjs let listofRandom = [ ]
console each value I push into that array, with certain time intervals
For example:  let listofRandom = [5, 1, 7 ]
Here 1st value is 5 which means it has to console the "5" for every 5 seconds and the next value is 1 has to console the "1" for every 1 second and then console "7" for every 7 seconds.
let listofRandom = [];
let generatedValues = '';

const addValue = () => {
let value = Math.floor(Math.random() * 9) + 1;
listofRandom.push(value);
console.log(listofRandom)
};

  listofRandom.map((num) => {
return setInterval(function () {
  generatedValue = generatedValue + num.toString();
  console.log(generatedValue);
}, num * 1000);
});
return(
<button onclick="addValue()">Add Value To Array </button>)

A:     const [values, setValues] = useState([1, 5, 7]);

    const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

    useEffect(() => {
        let counter = count;
        const interval = setInterval(() => {
            if (counter >= values.length) {
                clearInterval(interval);
            } else {
                console.log(values[counter]);
                setCount((count) => count + 1);
                counter++;
            }
        }, values[counter] * 1000);
        return () => clearInterval(interval);
    }, [count]);

A: let listofRandom = [5, 1, 7];
listofRandom.map((num) => {

Q: Find Commit Messages With Line Breaks Some people have used line breaks in their commit messages which is making parsing the logs a pain.
I want to identify the commit messages that contain multiple lines so that I can subsequently remove them.
If I do svn log --xml I can start parsing the msg tag but so far I have only managed to get a list of the messages.
svn log --xml --stop-on-copy http://myserver.com/branches|awk -F '[<>]' '/msg/{print $3}' |while read line;do echo $line|wc -l;done

The line count is always 1 because the while/read loop reads each line.
Even if I didn't have this line count problem, by this point I have lost the commit id.
How can I find out which commit messages have line breaks?

A: It turns out that scripting is not always the answer!
TortoiseSVN has a Regular Expression option in the log viewer so you can just type \n to look for line breaks.
You can conveniently edit the log message from there too (assuming you have the correct hook in place.

Poker is Like a Kiwi
By Donna Blevins in Uncategorized 0
When New Zealand exporters first introduced the kiwifruit to the United States in the 1950's, they had a big, image problem: The kiwi is ugly… really ugly.
With a fibrous, dull brown-green skin, kiwi was unappealing, far from mouth-watering. So what, if it's fun to eat and pretty inside? Few people ever saw its bright green and yellow flesh with tiny, black edible seeds. No one cared that it had a yummy, unique taste. Imagine a strawberry, melon, and banana all rolled up in one.
Resistant consumers rarely got past the drab outside look of the fruit, and grocers were naturally reluctant to stock much of an item that rarely sold. Sounds just like casinos reluctant to invest in poker rooms prior to the game's boom.
Relegated to an obscure area of the produce isle, the poor, unappreciated kiwi just sat there and mostly rotted. Even 60 years ago, people knew we eat with multiple senses, and that our taste buds are often the last to be engaged in the dining experience.
It was obvious. Kiwi had a serious image problem.
The solution? Change the image.
How? It wasn't as if you could buy new clothes and change its look. When viewed just from the outside, the kiwi would always be an ugly, little fruit. That fact was indisputable.
Twenty years passed, and kiwi was still a little, ugly fruit hidden away in a dark corner of the supermarket. Then a group of college students came up with the answer. I'm proud to say I was part of that team at North Texas State University, now UNT.
As a financially challenged undergrad in my tenth year of a five-year degree in advertising, I welcomed ways to combine income production and studies. My work-study class formed an ad agency, and against all odds, we won a contract to change the image of the kiwifruit.
The story of how the campaign evolved is a riot, more like Animal House meets the Abbott and Costello baseball sketch "Who's on First." For now, let me bottom-line it. Since it was obvious kiwi had a crappy image, we knew we had to confront its biggest flaw and help people think of it in a different way.
One guy's comment, "At closing time, everyone's a 10," prompted the focus of our campaign. Our slogan realigned how people thought about kiwi and triggered its rise to popularity: "Kiwi. Ugly is only skin-deep."
Poker's image, just like the kiwis, dramatically improved over the last decade as a household hobby exploded into a global phenomenon. On February 20, 2009, Associated Press announced, "An estimated 55-million Americans play some form of poker." Other online sources report upwards of 100-million worldwide, college age through senior citizens.
Unfortunately, even with the game's rise to the level of an international, competitive sport, an old image of smoke filled back rooms and illicit activities still lingers. I intend to be part of the force that alters this perception. Poker is finally coming out of the shadows into full legitimacy.
Ugly is still only skin-deep. Poker is like a kiwi… it looks a lot different once you see and experience the real inside.

Clark is constructing the new 620,000-square-foot Capital Region Medical Center in Largo, MD. Once complete, the hospital will provide Prince George's County residents with state-of-the-art trauma, critical, and surgical care, as well as emergency medical services.
Capital Region Medical Center will include imaging services, lab space, diagnostic and treatment services, medicaloncology, and pharmacy spaces. The team will construct a patient care tower with 205 beds and a mix of medical spaces including ICU, NICU, and Behavioral Health spaces.
Clark was selected as the Construction Manager after three years of "parallel preconstruction" services with two other general contractors.
The team will provide foundations and infrastructure for a prefabricated central utility plant.
The project is designed to achieve LEED® Silver certification. Construction is underway and completion is scheduled for October 2020.
