Tree squirrels are rodents and are in the same order (Rodentia) as the ground squirrels, mice, rats, voles, muskrat, beaver, plains pocket gopher and southern bog lemming.
Squirrels are a source of food for owls, foxes and other predators. They are also important to the ecosystem because they distribute nuts and acorns across the landscape.
Four species of tree squirrel occur in Illinois. All are small mammals characterized by a long, bushy tail, prominent ears and long hind feet. None of the tree squirrels hibernate, but they do have periods of reduced activity during severe cold weather.
Fox squirrel (Sciurus niger): The fox squirrel is the largest tree squirrel in Illinois, weighing one and three-quarters to two pounds with a length of 19 ½ to 22 inches. The fur is a mix of rusty-yellow with black giving an overall reddish cast. The fur on the ears, belly and the edge of the tail is lighter.
Eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis): The gray squirrel typically weighs one and a quarter pound with a length of 17 ¼ to 18 ¼ inches. The fur is gray on the back and white to light gray on the belly. Melanistic (black) or leucistic (white) or albinistic (albino) variants occur in Illinois. For example, melanistic individuals can be found in Fisher and Gibson City and leucistic individuals are common in Olney and in northeastern Illinois.

Red squirrel (Tamiassciurus hudsonicus): The red squirrel is smaller than the fox or gray squirrel, weighing approximately two fifths of a pound with a length of 11 ½ to 13 ½ inches. The fur is reddish gray on the back and whitish on the belly. Ear tufts are present in winter. Red squirrels can be found in the northeastern counties of Illinois.
Southern flying squirrel (Glaucomys volans): The southern flying squirrel is the smallest tree squirrel in Illinois, weighing approximately two ounces with a length of eight and five eighths to nine and three quarter inches. Their fur is glossy gray to cinnamon brown on the back and white on the belly. Their eyes are large and the tail is flattened. This squirrel appears larger than it is because of the folds of skin on either side of the body that extend from the wrist to the ankle. This feature gives the squirrel its gliding capability.

Tree squirrels build nests out of sticks and leaves near the tops of trees. They make multiple nests so they can quickly move if a nest is damaged by storms or attacked by predators.
It is not uncommon to see squirrels with patches of fur missing. Hair loss in squirrels is often caused by mange or fungal disease. Otherwise healthy squirrels can recover from mange or fungal infections.
Each squirrel species has two breeding seasons, one in winter (January and February) and the other in late spring (March) or early summer (July). Female fox and gray squirrels that are at least two years old have two litters per year, younger females have only one litter per year. The average litter size is two to four young. Southern flying squirrels may have litters of up to seven young. Young squirrels are weaned around eight weeks of age.
Squirrels are excellent climbers and jumpers. They are well known as unwelcome guests at birdfeeders. Besides consuming seed, they may damage bird feeders by chewing on them. They may also occasionally damage lawns when they dig holes to cache food. They will also sometimes damage garden plants, particularly corn. While inconvenient, these behaviors can usually be handled by modifying the habitat or excluding the squirrels.
In urban areas, squirrels may cause substantial property damage when they chew through siding or enlarge openings to gain access to attics. Once inside a building they may do further damage if they chew on insulation or electric wiring. Squirrels may also cause power outages when they short out transformers.
It will likely be necessary to use several techniques to control property damage by squirrels. Exclusion is typically the most effective method.
Since squirrels can jump up to 10 feet, trim tree branches back at least that distance from buildings to prevent squirrels from accessing the building.
If squirrels are a problem around bird feeders, provide corn for the squirrels away from the bird feeders or use bird feeders with squirrel-deterrents such as baffles.
Regularly check buildings on the property for places that need repair. Repair holes and openings as soon as they are noticed, making sure not to trap animals inside. If holes are found, loosely stuff newspaper in the opening. If the paper has not been moved after two or three days, it is safe to proceed with repairs.
If you need assistance with removing a squirrel from a building, you can call a nuisance wildlife control operator who will trap the squirrel for a fee.
If you are going to trap a squirrel (even if it will be released onto the same property), you will need a PERMIT from an Illinois Department of Natural Resources district wildlife biologist. The biologist can provide information on options for resolving problems, including issuance of a nuisance animal removal permit.
If squirrels are inside the building and will not leave, set live traps to capture them for release outside or install a way-one door over the opening so that animals can leave but not enter the building. An 18-inch long section of four-inch diameter plastic pipe pointed downward at a 45 degree angle can be placed in the access hole instead of a one-way door. If the opening is large, heavy wire mesh (½ x ½ inch) can be placed over the opening. Once all animals are out of the building, repair the opening.
In urban areas, squirrels may be trapped and released if an animal removal PERMIT is issued by an Illinois Department of Natural Resources district wildlife biologist.

LATINAMERISKA VOL.3
When, a few years ago, we started planning on compiling 60's and 70's songs influenced by Jamaican rhythms by different artists from the Latin/american continent, and published the first two volumes of "Latinameriska", we didn't think we would be able to continue with the series.However, this period of time has allowed us to continue with the "archaeologic work" of search and capture that every collector has in its blood.

"It was Brit R&B.

While sustainability has been taught as the core of urban planning and architecture for years, its widespread adoption is yet to pick up in India. Urban planning in India needs to be a creative and scientific process to meet the enormous goals of upgrading the cities to support the growing population, while providing momentum to support the government's 2015 Smart Cities Mission. India is home to ~1.34 billion people, almost 18% of total mankind, and one of the few countries witnessing urbanization at the rate of +34%. India has shown the inclination to exceed the sustainable targets and has come a long way in implementing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focused policy level thrust by the government. According to Indian Green Building Council (IGBC), India's current green building footprint is about 5.3 billion square feet, ranked second only to the United States. Policymakers, developers and corporations are increasingly identifying the environmental, social and economic benefits of adopting green initiatives.
"India has exhibited strong intent to promote sustainable development through key initiatives such as the Smart City and Green City Mission among others along with establishing specific standards such as GRIHA. With a framework in place which is evolving, I believe that stakeholders, both public and private, should work towards adoption of the best practices and high standards of green rating," says Joe Verghese, Managing Director, Colliers International India.
As per Colliers International's estimates, the initial incremental capital investment of 8-10% in a building's green development can be recovered in two to three years due to the large savings in energy and resource costs. As most development in India is led by the private sector, we believe that there must be both push and pull to increase the green building footprint in India. Incentives and governmental programmes should push developers to increase construction of green buildings while clearer articulation of the benefits of occupying green buildings should pull in end-users.
The Government of India (GoI) has several programmes including Smart Cities to meet the burgeoning infrastructure needs and improve the overall development of cities. The Smart Cities Mission, together with Housing for All, is planned to facilitate implementation of the priority Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), namely poverty, employment, and basic amenities. According to a report released by Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, the government aims to build 20 million affordable homes for urban poor by 2022 and initiated the Smart Cities Mission in 2015 to sustainably develop 100 cities across the country making them appealing to citizens by providing environmentally friendly urban infrastructure.
As per Colliers Research, there are three important factors for successful implementation of large-scale initiatives such as the Smart Cities Mission. Firstly, the political willingness with a policy framework being a subset of this factor. The second factor is financial strategies for implementation, and lastly technical wherewithal to execute the project successfully. We believe the critical factor for successful implementation is the transfer of ownership of the projects to private agencies. The private sector offers the capability, bandwidth, and funding mechanism for execution and efficient implementation in a time bound manner.
One such State that has made significant progress in achieving its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is West Bengal, which opted out of the Smart City mission and initiated its own Green City mission. The Green City Mission envisages the implementation of sustainable strategies to support overall city development. The adoption of the Green City Mission and other green building programmes by the state government is planned to save resources and mitigate environmental impacts. Adopting guidelines and monitoring benchmarks are critical to the success of this project, and we recommend routine programme monitoring to ensure resource conservation and environmental goals are achieved.
"Infrastructure and real estate taken together is a major sector that propels far-ranging development of the economy. Over the past 7 years we have witnessed how the West Bengal State Government has laid great emphasis on strengthening existing and building new infrastructure. This has included under its ambit, townships, road networks, industrial infrastructure, etc. Thus, it has also become important to understand the sustainability quotient of such proliferation of infrastructure," says Nandu Belani, Chairman Belani Group and President at CREDAI Bengal.

Q: Indexing an Indefinite series with pandas As part of a larger project, I am trying to get pandas to index file names that may vary in their length so that I can refer to the file names later. Is there a way to index series without specifying a set number of indexes?
Just for clarification, I would like to avoid doing:
ser = pd.Series(filename, index = ['a', 'b', ..., 'n'])

for each file, but rather have pandas recognize the number of entries in each name and index them based on the varying length.
Update: After trying to troubleshoot a bit, this is what I have found. Type seems to be correct, becasue type(ser) gives <class 'pandas.core.series.Series'>. The output I am getting is 0    g17210b03_20180906_104228_AM_AverageSpectrum.csv dtype: object. Looking at values and index, I find the following results: ser.values gives ['g17210b01_20180906_104202_AM_AverageSpectrum.csv'], which seems right, however, ser.values gives RangeIndex(start=0, stop=1, step=1), which seems incorrect, since the series contains more than just a single character (which I assume is being read as the '0' in the output).

Padmasini Temple of Padampur
At a distance of 70 Kms. from Jharsuguda, there is Hirakud reservoir on the left side of village Bhikampali. Just at the point where the river Mahanadi leaves the than Madhya predesh and enters Orissa to pour in to the Hirakud reservoir, there was once a town called as "Padampur". The famous Sanskrit dramatist "Bhabahbhoti" was believed to be born here. Moreover, it is said that "Bajrajan' Tantra marg of Buddhism took origin here.
Goddess Padmasini is the reigning deity of this town. The temple of "Padmashini' was constructed in 7th century A.D. by a Chalukya king of South. However the original temple had met decay and was believed to be reconstructed by the Chouhan king in 16th century. In the whole Orissa Padmasini Temple is a unique example of Chalukya art and architecture. In 1956 Padampur town was submerged in Hirakud reservoir, but the deity has been shifted to a new temple at nearby 'Pujaripali'.
Ruins of Hill Forts of Ulapgarh
On the Jharsuguda-Belpahar Road at a distance of 21 Kms. from Jharsuguda there is a village known as Lajkura. In the vicinity there is a hill known as "Maheswar Pahad" where the remains of an old holy fort attracts the attention of historians, researchers and tourists.
On the foot of Maheswar Pahad, there is small village called "Ulap". About one kilometer from the village, the ruins of Ulapgarh are situated. At this place, the Maheswar pahad is about 1000 ft high and on the top there is a huge plain surface. On this rectangular plain stone surface the fort of Ulapgarh had been constructed.

About 1000 people could take shelter at Ulapgarh at a time. On the western side of Ulapgarh and down hill there is Ushakothi cave.
It is believed that Ulapgarh was being used as a residential fort by some kings of "Naja" Dynasty. Research is going on by various Indian and Foreign researchers and Historian in this direction.
Rock Painting and Lithography of Bikramkhol
On the Jharsuguda-Lakhanpur Road at about 25km. from Jharsuguda there is a village known as Banjari. In the vicinity of the village the ancient cave of Bikramkhol is located. There are some ancient script engraved in the wall of Bikramkhol and also paintings of animals. Circular holes have been dug in the wall where weapons, dress and other articles of use were being kept suspended.

The Truth about Autism and Vaccines
In Health · health risks · medication side effects
Over the years there have been countless articles and studies on this topic, yet parents around the globe seem to have a hard time filtering through the emotions and finding the hard facts on this subject. Here at IsraelPharm, we have put together the findings from our research in the article below, in support of National Immunization Awareness Month. Feel free to enjoy and pass around to your family and friends.
Autism is a condition that is present from childhood that affects how a person communicates with other people and experience the world around them. It is a lifelong disability and can be a fundamental aspect of a person's identity. There are different levels on the autism scale – some people can also have learning disabilities or mental health issues – and most autistic people can live a fulfilling life with the right support.
In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of diagnoses. This could be due to increased awareness and broadened diagnostic criteria, but it has led to many people thinking that vaccines are the cause.
Anecdote versus evidence
While studies to date have confirmed that there is no relationship between vaccines and autism, many people have anecdotal experiences to support their claims. A British gastroenterologist released a paper which showed that 8 children showed first symptoms of autism one month after receiving the MMR vaccine. However it has not been possible to prove if the occurrence of autism was causal or coincidental. The MMR vaccine is given between ages 1 and 2, which is also the most common time that autism presents itself.
In addition to this, there have since been several ecological studies that have addressed the question of whether the MMR vaccine causes autism. For example, in 1987 when the MMR vaccine was introduced, 473 autistic children were studied – those that were vaccinated and those that were not. The authors observed no difference in the symptoms between vaccinated and unvaccinated children.
For a lot of people, the timing of autism symptoms coincide with vaccinations but it is important to understand that scientists have conducted extensive research which has clearly shown that vaccines do not cause autism. The scientific evidence can be viewed here.
Children are at an increased risk of developing autism if there are genetic risk factors, pregnancy or birth complications or because of advanced parent age. The risk can also be decreased by taking folic acid during pregnancy. You can find more information on autism here.
Too many vaccines?
There has also been a lot of talk about the impact of too many vaccines in a short period of time on a child. Many parents are concerned that their children's immune systems are not strong enough to deal with vaccinating on schedule. The fact is, infants are exposed to more antigens in his or her environment than all the vaccinations combined. A healthy child's immune system is strong enough to handle the vaccines, but is not strong enough to fight serious diseases such as measles.
Children nowadays are getting more vaccines than they used to, which means that they will have immunity against 14 diseases by the age of 2. Vaccines today also contain fewer antigens than they used to. The vaccine schedule is designed to protect infants when they are most at risk.
Risks of not vaccinating
Some parents decide to delay or reject some or all vaccines. This is a decision that they have researched and decided is the best course of action for their child. However, this decision also comes with a responsibility and risks.
Firstly, it is important to always tell medical staff that your child has not received all his or her vaccinations – whether it's a doctor, pharmacist, in an emergency room or when you call 911. People with weak immune systems are more at risk for contracting diseases and so it's important to isolate an unvaccinated child from these people.
Parents also need to be aware that their children can catch diseases from people who aren't necessarily experiencing any symptoms.
A vaccine-preventable disease could potentially strike at any time in the United States or anywhere in the world. The disease can quickly spread among people who are not immune. It is important to learn the signs of these diseases and to immediately notify a medical professional if there is a concern. A full list of risks and responsibilities for people who choose not to vaccinate can be viewed here.
There is no scientific evidence to prove that there is a link between immunizations and autism. With that said, every parent has the responsibility to choose if and when to vaccinate their child. This comes with a responsibility to their child and to other people, and before making the decision it is important to thoroughly research the subject and understand all the risk factors.

Sides of Ray Charles
This double disc vinyl collection illustrates the many musical "sides" of Ray by focusing each album side on some of the broader genre categories he visited most. Ray Charles is both one of the most iconic artists of all time as well as one of the hardest to define by genre. At the beginning of his career, he was dubbed the Genius of Soul for boldly combining traditional R&B with Gospel music and giving birth to Soul music. Yet this momentous musical accomplishment was just the beginning of a five-decade career in which he uniquely succeeded in virtually every genre. Ray's unique mastery of music allowed him to continue to explore all forms of music, freely floating between jazz, blues, pop, rock, soul and country while continuing to combine them in new, unprecedented ways.
ABOUT THE 2 DISC VINYL ALBUM
● The first side focuses on Soul music. Of course, Ray put a little bit of soul in everything he did. But these songs and performances were a part of the bedrock of Soul, defining the genre that Ray Charles, more than any other artists, was responsible for creating.
● The second side centers on Jazz & Blues, which are as fundamental to Ray's music as they are to American popular music. In this set, as in everything Ray sang, one can clearly feel the emotions that can only be brought on by life's heartbreaks and hard times.
● The third side highlights another of Ray's remarkable achievements, the dramatic expansion of country music. In this set, while every song is a country song, you'll hear elements of jazz, blues, soul, gospel, and pop. Not only did Ray defy racial and musical boundaries , but he also elevated it to the world stage, creating the first ever world-wide pop hit with a country song, "I Can't Stop Loving You".
● The last side, Pop Classics, is a bit harder to define. First, nearly everything that Ray Charles sang was a classic. And popular music changes with the times. If you consider "pop" as recordings that are universal in their appeal and that don't sit neatly within another genre, then these songs fit the bill.

The Regional Museum of Natural History at Mysore, is a museum in India with exhibits on plants, animals and geology of the southern region of India.

Description
The Regional Museum of Natural History at Mysore, was inaugurated on 20 May 1995. It was undertaken by the government of India, ministry of environment and forests. The museum is located on the banks of Karanji Lake, with the Chamundi Hills visible in the background. It is now a landmark in the city. The museum exhibits plants, animals and geology of the southern region of India.  The galleries emphasize the conservation of nature and natural resources while depicting ecological interrelationship among plants and animals. Visually challenged students can feel the exhibits of animals on the premises. The museum provides an extracurricular activity for schools and promotes environmental awareness.

Galleries
 Biological Diversity has multiple sections. The first section has a special emphasis on the western ghats. It exhibits the biodiversity of the southern region of India. The next section is about tropical rain forests, of countries that possess them, showcasing their diversity and global benefits. The next section is on the significance of wetlands and the mangrove forests. The next section depicts a diorama of a marine habitat. The last section has a large exhibit panel cautioning against the destruction natural diversity.
 Life through the Ages is walk-through tunnel, depicting evolution of life.
 The Discovery center consists of a discovery room, a computer room, a vivarium and a mini weather station. Children can handle, examine and study specimens in the discovery room. A mini theater, a sound booth are also present to keep children occupied. The bioscience computer room facilitates studying biology through interactive and multimedia techniques at a high-school or college level.

Botanical garden
On the grounds of the museum is a small botanical garden with local trees and a collection of plants used in Ayurvedic medicine.

The gardens include an interpretative trail section designed for the visually impaired with not only signs in brail but also a sunken foot bridge to provide a "walk in water" experience of aquatic plants and fishes. Museum curators describe this section as "the first museum garden for the visually impaired in India."

Technologies for recovering energy from municipal solid waste (MSW) are becoming increasingly established in many countries. This trend derives from a combination of factors which include the potential for economic and environmental benefits and the increasingly held belief that MSW should be viewed more as a resource and less as simply a waste requiring disposal. The objective of this research is to estimate the energy content of municipal solid waste (MSW) generated in Ujjain city of M.P, India, based on its physical composition. .Ujjain city provide 150 tons/ day MSW generated, Average net calorific value 1103.5kcal/kg, the net power generation potential is 2.16 kW Ujjain. For energy recovery thermo-chemical and bio-chemical conversion process is used.

Norwich City transfer rumours: Idah out, Hugill back in for Canaries?

Norwich City striker Adam Idah is being linked with a January loan move to Nottingham Forest - Credit: Paul Chesterton/Focus Images Ltd
Norwich City head coach Dean Smith has insisted any thoughts of a January squad makeover can wait but that has not stopped Adam Idah being touted with a loan move to Championship club Nottingham Forest.
The Sun on Sunday's Alan Nixon also claims Jordan Hugill's West Brom loan stint could be cut short next month 'to fill a vacancy' in the City squad.
Smith takes Norwich to Tottenham in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon, with Idah a second half substitute in the midweek 1-1 draw at Newcastle.
The 20-year-old has not started a league game this season, which prompted Nixon to suggest City's top brass feel he needs a loan spell for regular football and the Reds 'are favourites to land him'.
Forest beat Peterborough 2-0 on Saturday but sit 13th in the Championship under former Swansea chief Steve Cooper.
Smith was asked about the Republic of Ireland international's chances under him on Friday.
"Adam knows what's expected of him," he said. "There might be times when he gets the opportunity to play with Teemu (Pukki) up front. Teemu has set the standard at the moment and Adam can see from the goals and the work rate that is the standard that he needs to get to himself.
"There is certainly an awful lot of potential in Adam's ability, from what I've seen so far. He came on against Newcastle and made an impact and that's what I'm asking the players to do when they're when they're called upon."
Idah was quoted in the Irish media on international duty over the summer admitting the lack of game time at club level was 'difficult' at times.
While Hugill has only notched once in 16 loan appearances for the Baggies, and was again a second half substitute in Saturday's 2-1 Championship away win at Coventry City.
Nixon believes the Baggies are in the hunt for more firepower next month to bolster their promotion bid, and that could see Hugill recalled by his parent club.

Real Co-op campaigners vow to fight on to break Labour link
Posted on June 5, 2015 by Scottish Socialist Voice // 0 Comments
End the Labour link: the Labour Party doesn't have a monopoly on co-operative values
by David Eyre For the last few months, I've been helping the Real Co-op campaign try to end the exclusive link between the Labour Party and the Co-operative Group. Unfortunately, at the Group AGM in Manchester on Saturday 16 May, it became clear that we had lost. By a margin of 55 per cent to 45, Co-operative members had voted to keep the link. So the Co-operative Group will continue its subscription to The Co-operative Party, giving it hundreds of thousands of pounds every year.
The Co-operative Party will spend that money on developing policy and helping to elect and support Co-operative Party politicians—all of whom are in the Labour Party.
The Real Co-op campaign started because we believe that's wrong. We want real co-operative politics. There has been a transformation in political life in this country, and we can no longer pretend that the Labour Party has a monopoly on co-operative values.
We believe the Co-operative Groups should keep political funding, because it's important to protect and promote the co-operative model, but it should not be restricted to one party and it should be under the open, democratic control of members.
It was always going to be a difficult fight to win. This is the first time that the Co-operative Group has had direct one-member-one-vote decision-making, and many people just didn't understand what was happening. Out of around 3 million eligible members, only around 900,000 actually voted.
We were also up against The Co-operative Party, the Labour Party, a well-funded PR and advertising campaign, and—in the final weeks—the Unite trade union, who wrote to its members urging them to vote in favour of the Co-op Party subscription.
We lost. We'd like to thank every member of the SSP who supported the campaign and the Voice for helping us get the word out. It's important that socialists support co-operation—it's one of the building blocks of the economy we'll build and run together, putting people's needs in place of private profit.
And the Real Co-op campaign is not going away. Several people elected onto the Co-operative Members' Council are Real Co-op supporters. We will have the opportunity to return to the issue of political funding in the future. And there are other important issues that we have to deal with.
The Co-operative Group's democracy is under threat by corporate interests, eroding the control that member-owners have over the business. For example, we had to endure a phoney election for the posts of Member Directors on the Co-operative Board. There were three vacancies and just three candidates, making it certain that they would all be elected unopposed.
Shockingly, one of those directors is the disgraced former New Labour MP Hazel Blears: a woman who had to resign over flipped houses and dodgy expenses now represents ordinary Co-operative members and is supposed to uphold co-operative values like honesty and fairness. You couldn't make it up.
So the Real Co-op campaign will continue. And—with the help of socialist co-operators—we will make member control and real co-operative politics a reality in the Co-operative Group.

Jeff has safely arrived at the midwestern university where he will attend grad school and be a residence hall manager. He is there with all the worldly goods he could stuff into his little used car and still see out the windows. And, he is there with his galoshes! As the Boy Scouts say, "Be prepared, and get those puppies out of your mom's coat closet."
We have lived in Texas for fourteen years now. It's not my idea of an hospitable clime. This time of year when I walk out the door, the muggy heat slams me backward against the nearest wall, czungkak! My chest hurts, and I feel exhausted by my exertion. And that's just going out front to pick up the newspaper at 6:15 a.m.
I started my "new job" the day we all woke up and realized the world did not end on Y2K. One of the first weeks on the job I had to use my break between classes to go to the nearest mall in search of galoshes. Jeff was going to a high school debate tournament at Harvard. He was required to take two suits, a winter coat appropriate for wear over the suits, AND galoshes. I had already searched everywhere in my suburb for galoshes, and I was having to expand my search. My new co-workers offered advice and directions to the mall, and I raced over there. I hit every possible store setting a world speed record pace, and still couldn't find any galoshes.
What I remember is that I was learning this new job, and meeting all these new people, and feeling overwhelmed with their creative brain-storming effort to help me find the darn galoshes. What I forget is that they were learning about this new super-stressed single mom/art teacher and her three sons. As Dr. Seuss writes in What Was I Scared Of? about the empty pale green pants, "...I began to see that I was just as strange to them as they were strange to me!"
So this week these dear friends have laughed with me as I sent Jeff off into adulthood with those darn galoshes. I'm not sure he ever even wore them at Harvard in 2000. I know they've been in the bottom of the coat closet ever since. After we located his coat and the zip-in lining I told Jeff to wait! He needed to take the galoshes, too. I unearthed them, and Jeff said, "So these go on over my shoes, right?" Right, and they are not my responsibility any more! One son crossing over into adulthood as equipped for the real world as I could make him. One mom letting go of the small stuff.
And, just in case you are wondering, I finally found those galoshes at the Army/Navy store. They cost $19.86.

I am getting the following error:

What is causing this issue?
What does the error mean?

A: You have set $newlen to the number of elements in the array @new and then tried to access $new[$newlen]. The elements of @new are at indices 0 to $newlen - 1, so $new[$newlen] is beyond the end of the array. You get the warning because this evaluates to undef and is uninitialised.
You have the same problem with the start index of the slice, which should read

The most distinctive component of the vehicle is the glass sphere that contains much of recording equipment and was made by Nautilus Marine Service GmbH (Bremen, Germany). It is a 1-atmosphere electronics pressure vessel that also provides bouyancy for the vehicle. The sphere is held in place by an external frame made from thermoplastics, which also surround the other external components such as thrusters, pressure sensor, lights and drop-weight systems.
The drop-weights system was designed and developed by Promare with the capacity to release weights in three stages: one descent weight, which is dropped just above or on the seafloor; several small weights, which can be dropped to obtain neutral buoyancy on the seafloor; and an ascent weight at the end of the dive.
In addition to propriety software and hardware (which was used in the glass sphere), an assortment of off-the-shelf components were used as well. These include a high-definition video camera and lithium-ion battery pack from OceanServer Technology, Inc. (Fall River, Massachusetts). In addition, the system includes a high-resolution, full-ocean-depth pressure sensor custom-made by Presens AS (Oslo, Norway) and full-ocean-depth LED lights.
The Ocean Server lithium-ion battery pack containing approximately 760 watt-hours of energy powers the dimmable LED lights (which are housed in small glass spheres) as well as the rest of the vehicle. A power-control function allowing for long passive periods with minimal battery drain makes abyssal dives with long ascent and descents possible.
A single-board computer controls all vehicle functions. In AUV mode, the system is preprogrammed and the computer controls the vehicle completely, while HD video is stored on board. In ROV mode, the vehicle is controlled via a fiber-optic connection custom made by Teledyne Impulse-PDM Ltd. (Alton, England); it provides two channels of communication. One channel is a 1-gigabit-per-second network for operator commands and sensor measurements, and the other provides real-time high-definition video signals. The system incorporates full-ocean-depth thrusters customized by Tecnadyne (San Diego, California).
There is also an independent and dedicated GPS and Iridium circuitry on board fro NAL Research Corp. (Manassas, Virginia). This system acquires a position fix that is transmitted to the vehicle operators as soon as the vehicle surfaces for easy relocation.
These various parts resulted in a low-cost, easy-to-deploy robotic vehicle system that allows for an increased exploration tempo in the deepest parts of the worlds oceans.

Q: how to use awk command to extract the output data from .gz file format I have a file in this format File.gz with content like below.
'0' 0 0 0 0 0 'Allowed' 'Allowed' '0' 0 '' 'E1' 3 '1' '' '000000' '00000000' '0' '0' '150' '0' '323560' '600' '1' '0' '0' '0' 150809303 'LC9' 1 1506147442 150613878 4 0 0 0 ''

How to use awk command to extract the output data from .gz file format? Like I want to output the file content only for field 7,8 ,11,12,22,27 in excel csv format where field 7 = allowed and field 12 = E1.
How to execute awk and print out the output in linux ?

A: awk can't read gz files.  But you can do
zcat file.gz | awk -v OFS=, '{print $7, $8 ... etc}'

for the quoted value test, you can
... | awk -v OFS=, -v v7="'Allowed'" -v v12="'E1'" '$7==v7 && $12==v12 {print $7, ... etc}'

A: awk '{OFS=","}{print $7,$8,$11,$12,$22,$27}' filename

Output:
'Allowed','Allowed','','E1','323560','0'

A: I hope you are searching for a one liner code.
Try the below,
gzip -dc File.gz|awk '{if ($7 == "allowed" && $12 == "E1") print $7","$8","$11","$12","$22","$27}'

explanation for - gzip -dc :

**d** option decompresses the file
**c** option Write output on standard output; keep original files
  unchanged.


Nevertheless, it seems like restaurants that offer quick, healthy options, especially for lunch, are quite valuable around here. Just Salad is just like Chop't in that you pick your greens, vegetables, proteins, etc. in order to build a big ol' salad that they then chop for you like pros.
You can pick between spinach, kale, red cabbage, romaine, mesclun and arugula as your base. You get four free "essentials" or toppings, which then cost 59 cents each after that. They have everything from banana peppers to chickpeas to pumpkin seeds to steak that you can add to your salad, plus a variety of cheeses. After that, you choose your dressing from either their Original selections (sherry shallot vinaigrette, smoky poblano ranch, Moroccan tahini…), Low-Fat options (horseradish chive, yogurt cucumber, Far East mandarin…), Fat-Free kinds (honey-herb dijon, ranch, red wine vinegar…), and Classic Dressings (Asian sesame, caesar, bleu cheese…). And if the pressure is too much and you don't want to create your own, you can choose from one of their Chef-Design salads. And if you came to place called Just Salad and for some reason don't actually want salad (no judgment here), you can order wraps or soups.
Now, for a few tips! At the end of your salad-making process you'll have the option of getting bread or not with your order, so don't forget about that. Also, if you've been here before and happen to have your plastic bowl still, make sure to bring it back to reuse it and you'll get two free essentials or 1 free cheese.

Its Board, management and employees are dedicated to high ethical standards and recognise and support the Company's commitment to compliance with these standards.
In particular, the Company is committed to preventing any form of Corruption and Bribery and to upholding all laws relevant to these issues, including the Anti-Corruption Legislation.

Where a country has specific bribery and corruption Local Laws which are less rigorous than this ABC Policy, this ABC Policy prevails. The Company may, from time to time, provide country-specific directions for subsidiaries operating in countries outside of Australia.
This ABC Policy sets out the Company's requirements in relation to interactions with Officials and Third Parties. This ABC Policy does not prohibit interactions with Officials, rather it forbids corrupt interactions with those individuals.
In this ABC Policy, references to the Company includes references to the Company and all of its subsidiaries.
In this ABC Policy the following words or phrases mean the following:
Anti-Corruption Legislation includes many laws such as the Criminal Code Act 1995 (Cth) and any applicable anti-corruption laws and regulations applicable to the location in which the Company operates.
Bribery is the act of offering, promising, giving or accepting a benefit with the intention of influencing a person who is otherwise expected to act in good faith or in an impartial manner, to do or omit to do anything in the performance of their role or function, in order to provide the Company with business or a business advantage that is not legitimately due (whether in respect of an interaction with an Official or any commercial transaction in the private sector).
Business Associates means third party companies and individuals (such as joint venture partners, consultants and agents) acting on the Company's behalf, whether directly or indirectly, by representing the Company's interests to foreign governments in relation to international business development or retention of business opportunities.

Gifts, Entertainment and Hospitality includes the receipt or offer of presents, meals or tokens of appreciation and gratitude or invitations to events, functions, or other social gatherings, in connection with matters related to the Company's business unless they:

Government Official means:
(a) any politician, political party, party official or candidate of political office;
(b) any official or employee of a domestic or foreign government (whether national, state/provincial or local) or agency, department or instrumentality of any domestic or foreign government or any government-owned or controlled entity (including state-owned enterprises);

(d) any person acting in a private or public official function or capacity for such domestic or foreign government, agency, instrumentality, entity or organisation;

(f) any person who holds themselves out to be an authorised intermediary of a government official.
Item of Value includes, amongst other things, cash, travel, meals, Gifts, Entertainment and Hospitality, other tangible or intangible benefits or anything of value.
Money-laundering means the process by which a person or entity conceals the existence of an illegal source of income and then disguises that income to make it appear legitimate.
Official means a Government Official, political party, official or officer of a political party or candidate for political office.
Personnel means all persons acting (whether authorised or unauthorised) on behalf of the Company at all levels, including officers, directors, temporary staff, contractors, consultants and employees of the Company.

No accounts are to be kept "off the books" to facilitate or conceal improper payments.
(d) All Personnel must report Items of Value given or received to the Anti-Bribery Officer as per the attached Appendix and if applicable include all relevant details in any expense reimbursement report/claim.

The Company encourages openness and will support any Personnel who raises genuine concerns in good faith under this ABC Policy.
(c) If you are not comfortable, for any reason, with speaking directly to the Board or the Anti-Bribery Officer, the Company has a Whistleblower Protection Policy which affords certain protections against reprisal, harassment or demotion for making the report.

Customs : FOU Zone C Intercepts Over N99m Worth Of Contrabands In Three Months
The Nigeria Customs Service, Federal Operations Unit, Zone 'C' Owerri said it has various contrabands with a Duty Paid Value (DPV) of N99.8million between April to June 2021.
According to a statement made available by the Unit Public Relations Officer, Jerry Attah, it states that most of the contraband goods were intercepted along Okada-Benin/Lagos expressway with five suspects arrested in connection with the seizures.
The breakdown of the seizures is said to include, 45 rolls containing 4,500 sachets of 225mg of royal brand of tramadol, 210 bags of 50kg foreign parboiled rice, 18 parcels of Indian Hemp, 19, 725 sachets of dizapam tablet and 98 bales of used clothing
Others are 220 cartons of foreign tomatoes paste, 12 cartons of foreign Johnson soap, 240 pieces of used tyres and 668 pairs of used shoes among others.
The statements also reads in part that the Area Controller of the Unit, Comptroller Yusuf Lawal, commends the resilience and doggedness of his officers and men that brought about the result noting that only God knows what would have happened if the tramadol gets to the wrong hand at this trying moment for the country
Comptroller Lawal added that the unit was able to achieve the feat through the logistics support provided by the Customs management. He however expressed appreciation to the media and other sister government agencies for providing necessary operational support.
In his words "This feat couldn't have been possible without the logistics support of the Comptroller General of Customs, Col. Hameed Ibrahim Ali (Rtd) and the entire management, as well as the media for their partnership in sensitizing and educating the general public on the evil of smuggling to the nation's economy which has led to drastic reduction of smuggling within our zone.
"Even though smuggling is a global phenomenon that cannot be eradicated entirely, all hands must be on deck to reduce the menace to its barest minimum" he quipped.
Meanwhile he urged his officers and men to always ensure professionalism and be diligent in performing their statutory responsibilities.
While encouraging them to keep thwarting the antics of dare devil smugglers who used different methods of concealment for smuggling activities, he also charged them to sustain the anti-smuggling operations by making sure all revenue leakages are blocked.

More European nations suspend use of AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine
Home /Business/More European nations suspend use of AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine
More European countries have suspended the use of the Covid-19 vaccine developed by AstraZeneca and University of Oxford following reports of several suspected deaths from clotting after inoculation
Coronavirus Vaccine | Coronavirus Tests | Coronavirus
Last Updated at March 14, 2021 09:24 IST
More European countries, fully or partially, have suspended the use of the Covid-19 vaccine developed by British company AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford following reports of several suspected deaths from clotting after inoculation.
The Danish Health Authority on Thursday announced in a statement that the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine has been suspended in Denmark for 14 days due to fears of serious adverse reactions, adding that the move was based on "concerns raised by the drug authorities" and "a precautionary principle", Xinhua news agency reported.
The suspension came after several reports of blood clots following vaccinations and the death of a 60-year-old woman who received a shot and then died after developing a blood clot, according to the Danish news agency Ritzau.
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) in a statement released on Thursday described the Danish Health Authority's decision as a "precautionary measure" but stressed there was "currently no indication that vaccination has caused these conditions".
Austria, Italy, Bulgaria, Romania, Estonia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Latvia and non-European Union (EU) countries Norway and Iceland have also banned the use of the vaccine as a precaution after similar reports of blood clots, which European drug regulators are still investigating.
Following Denmark, Norway and Iceland, Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov on Friday also ordered the suspension "until an accurate and clearly confirmed diagnosis comes in writing from the EMA".
According to the country's Health Ministry, Bulgaria had booked more than 4.5 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine.
In the UK, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency said in a statement on Thursday that "it has not been confirmed that the report of a blood clot was caused by the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine", urging that people "should still go and get their COVID-19 vaccine when asked to do so".
The EMA has noted that a review of thromboembolic (blood clot) events with Covid-19 vaccine AstraZeneca is being carried out under an accelerated timetable. According to the EMA, the incidence of blood clots among vaccinated people is not higher than among the general population.
In Italy, another AstraZeneca batch raised concern after both a 43-year-old serviceman died of a heart attack, and a 50-year-old policeman died following their vaccinations from the ABV2856 batch.
The Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA) issued a ban on the use of the batch ABV2856 on Thursday. However, in a statement, AIFA said that currently "no causal link has been established between the administration of the vaccine and these events," and the agency is carrying out all necessary checks.
Similarly, the Romanian health authorities decided late Thursday to temporarily suspend the use of over 4,000 doses of the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine from the same batch suspended in Italy, but to continue vaccinations with serum from other batches.
"The remaining 4,317 doses of the vaccines in question will be sealed until the EMA completes its evaluation," said the official statement, adding that "the vaccination will continue with all other batches of AstraZeneca vaccines currently in Romania … so that the immunization process is not affected".
Commenting on the "defected" batches, EMA said its position is "that the vaccine's benefits continue to outweigh its risks and the vaccine can continue to be administered while investigation of cases of thromboembolic events is ongoing."
The AstraZeneca vaccine was authorised by the European Commission for use within the bloc on January 29, 2021.
