I am so excited that we have finally got the new Art Nouveau Cricut cartridge in stock - it is definitely my new favourite!
I couldn't wait to get started with it so decided to make a thank you card for some friends.
The handbook for this cartridge has a new (to me) feature - beside each shape they list the minimum size for optimal cutting. Very handy if, like me, you get frustrated with trying to cut the shapes out too small.
I chose my favourite image on the cartridge (woman2) and cut her out at 8 inches along with all of her layers.
As you can see she cut out beautifully. I wanted a simple background for her so cut the background arch using "lily" - layer 2 at 7.5 inches and 7.75 inches in two colours.
To add a bit of texture, I embossed the background using the Touch of Mica Ivy Mask.
I hope you enjoy this cartridge - it could become your favourite too!
This card was inspired by our Black Cat silhouette - it is available as a die cut pack or as an svg.
I love this combination of colours and used our Birch Tree graphic image as the view from the window.
Print it out straight onto your colour of choice depending on the time of day and mood you want to create. It could be blue skies, rainy day in grey or sunshine yellow. Then cut it out with the Spellbinders Window die. Take out the panels of the window and put aside the frame to finish the card with. Then recut the window die in black switching the panels from the previous cut to form the view. Cut the corners also from the peach coloured window to create a pretty edge mounted on the inside . I stamped it with a "Home is the place where our hearts belong" stamp and added a simple black bow.
I saw this fab technique on TV the other day and really wanted to try it. I love alcohol inks and am always pleased to find a new way of using them.
Take a shallow dish (I used a takeaway dish) and half fill it with water.
Drip two or three drops of alcohol inks onto the surface of the water. Then do the same with two more colours (I find using three colours works best).
Lay a piece of card onto the surface of the water - you can use matt or glossy card. Lift the card up and you will have a beautiful marbled effect. You can either leave your card to dry naturally, or use your heat gun which also moves the ink around the card.
Mountain Rose, Willow and Cloudy Blue - this gives a very subtle effect.
Red Pepper, Lettuce and Orange - a richer, autumnal background.
Purple Twighlight, Raspberry and Pool - a brighter background.
Pesto, Raisin and Stonewashed - lovely, earthy tones.
Eggplant, Hazlenut and Meadow - another subtle combination.
I have discovered Zentangle recently - so have acquired another addiction! I decided these tags would make fantastic backgrounds to tangle on.
I hope you enjoy trying out this technique with your alcohol inks.
I painted a picture of a geisha girl for my daughter Melanie's birthday, which she loved.
We decided maybe you would like it too. So, I have created a digi-stamp of her which I then 'painted' with the wonderful new range of Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic Drawing Inks. They are so much more than drawing inks. I love them because they are always ready, dry quickly and are so versatile.
Think of this image as painting by numbers but without the numbers! You can lose the lines as I have or keep them as your guide.
For a soft dreamy effect paint wet into wet, for harder lines just wait a few moments to continue. Mixing colours on your craft sheet is fun or you can paint directly onto your card. The little brushes are so delicate that they do not rough the surface. It was huge fun and very satisfying to do a little painting. The beautiful colours that I chose to use are listed below. A little tip, although the inks will not spill if knocked over try to remember to pull the brush out away from your picture or you may get 'splatter pattern'.
There are lots more fabulous colours for you to choose from.
Have you ever wondered what cats and dogs think of snow?
I designed this card with this in mind.
Let's start with the snow, from an svg design of ours called "Snow Layer Small" cut out in black and laid over a white background as I love the contrast.
The curtained windows are also a new svg design which is proving to be very versatile. You can cut them out plain and 'Zentangle' them as I have or cut them from a really fancy patterned paper or flock which would give a real Victoriana feel.
Moving on this black ribbon is now in stock and I could not wait to use it and this felt like the perfect occasion.
The cat is yet another SVG called "Black Cat" which I obviously cut out in white.
To make the black rose simply fold the ribbon in half roll it around your finger and secure with a straight pin.
The larger white snow flakes are also available as an SVG.
I chose a simple sentiment, feeling that there was enough going on in the scene.
We would so love to see your interpretations of this card. Maybe with a snowman outside or children playing, possibly our carol singers, anything really you can imagine.
Have fun and don't forget to let us know.

Walter Duncan is a 15-year veteran K-12 teacher. His students were ranked in the top 15% of all Massachusetts Public School students on MCAS ELA in 2012. He has deep experience getting the best out of his kids in inner-city school districts such as Detroit, Washington DC, and Boston. Additionally he is the co-founder of Design By Educators the makers of the Quick Key Mobile app, a social impact company that seeks to empower teachers to more effectively close the achievement gap. The free Open Beta version of the Quick Key is available on the Quick Key Homepage.
They gave her a script! All I could do was shake my head. The pressure to perform on high stakes tests has gotten to the point that teachers are being given scripts to teach from. This is a travesty. As I thought about this I could only arrive at the conclusion that those who make these decisions simply do not understand teaching.
In my experience, excellent teaching is comprised of two very important parts (in truth it is more complicated, but let's just keep it simple for now). The first is content, a teacher must understand the content and earnestly endeavor to employ a variety of methods to help students master it. That being said, technology is now available that will always be able to give students access to more content than one individual teacher could ever hope to. And teachers are evolving, shepherding students to resources and helping them to gain mastery over the opportunities that new technology provides.
There is, however, a part of teaching that no technology will ever be able to replace. It is the art of inspiration. It is impossible to teach in a training course, it can't be gained from a new miracle method. Quite simply, the dedicated teacher develops this through trial and error. The veteran teachers can guide rookie teachers in finding their authentic way of inspiring students. It is intangible, it is special, it is magical. It is why you remember the teacher that changed your life (shout out to John Sbordone!). It is what you do at that moment when you help a student face a life crisis by just listening, or when you chastise a student for not performing up to their potential. It cannot be measured in a new fangled evaluation rubric, and a teaching script is its death nell.
All of the above being said, we still feel the pressure. The students must perform, the rubrics must be filled out, the appetite of the evaluators must be satiated. But I will not turn my classroom into a fear of failure based worksheet factory. I created Quick Key so teachers could have access to and track formative data that they could use to support their out of the box teaching practices. When data exists that can back up the wacky and wild ways that educators find to inspire and educate their students, everyone's needs can be met. I can have the freedom to teach, and at the same time have clear measures of student progress toward the standards. Let us marry data with the art of teaching to the benefit of our students. We must teach inspired!

Estonian alcohol producer AS Liviko has acquired 50% of a Japanese alcohol import and distribution company.
AS Liviko has undertaken to invest 50 million yen in Japanese company Hanza Trading Co. The parties are not disclosing the amount of the transaction.
Liviko started to export Viru Valge Coolers and Viru Valge vodkas to Japan last year. In 2009, AS Liviko invested 20 million Estonian kroons in a production line for low-alcohol beverages. According to the company, products made on the new line use a "complex production technology comply with the Japanese legal and health protection requirements, which differ from those applicable in Europe, and thus meet the requirements of the Japanese market".
Liviko currently exports five products of the Viru Valge range to the Japanese market: Viru Valge Cooler Pink Grapefruit, Viru Valge Cooler Greenapple, Viru Valge Watermelon vodka, Viru Valge vodka and Viru Valge Special Anniversary vodka.
AS Liviko had been preparing for the export of its products to Japan since 2006, conducting market research and developing flavours and products especially for the Japanese market.
In 2009, AS Liviko exported about 4 million litres of alcoholic beverages, which is nearly one-third of its own production. AS Liviko's main export markets are Latvia, Lithuania, Russia, Ukraine, Finland, and the USA. The internationally best known brands of AS Liviko are Vana Tallinn liqueurs and Viru Valge vodkas.

Q: how to reproduce the images gallery effect of duckduckgo search with css only I'm trying to create a gallery for images of every shapes, that would act like the image search in duckduckgo desktop browser : the images fill each entire row.
To achieve that, duckduckgo keeps one constant height and slightly reduce the horizontal size of the images to have a perfect width. I want to do it in pure css
Here is an exemple if you search for fish images in duckduckgo : https://duckduckgo.com/?q=fish&t=newext&atb=v246-1&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images
You can see how each images keep their ratio aproximatively, but are modified a little bit to fit perfectly the entire view width, that gives a well organized image gallery with all kind of images sizes
first attempt : images stretch
I began by using the flex: 1; property, or in my case to be precise : flex: 1 1 0;, for the flex-grow property, this gives me something where the images become larger to fill the entire row, but some of them stretch too hard so at certain size of windows it's really weird
second attempt : images inside a box
then I tried to put the images inside a box, that would do the visual effect of growing, without changing the width of the image, but it's not really nice
third attempt : reduce the image by cutting
so then I tried to reproduce the method of duckduckgo, shrinking the images instead of growing them. I thought I would do it easily with flex-shrink, but I couldn't make it work, so I manually put the image in a box that is -30px smaller each size, left and right, and they grow automatically with flex, revealing the hidden part of the image.
Sometimes it grows more than the image width so we see the background, that's ok, but it's not better looking because some images get really too thin
fourth attempt : reduce with a minimum
so i tried with a minimum size, it's better, but still not satisfying at all

Nourishing terrain: Gardens and colonisation of Australia Grace Karskens
The lost gardens of Sydney elicit sadness, nostalgia, even grief for the destruction of so much beauty and cultural heritage. The Aboriginal people who lost their Country to settlers and their gardens endure such grief too, though magnified, because their Country was not only beloved homeland and the source of law, culture and identity, but inspirited, sentient and alive.
Plants of the Simpson Desert: Introducing the collectors Rosemarie Purdie
The sand dunes of the Simpson Desert cover 130,000 square kilometres at the intersection of the Northern Territory (NT), Queensland (Qld) and South Australia (SA). Although European explorers first entered the Desert in the 1840s and 1860s, plant collectors only started visiting in the 1870s. The specimens they deposited in various Australian herbaria provide a history of the Desert's plant collectors and collecting.
From 1879 to 1979 around 100 individuals gathered 3,556 specimens, although just 10 people were responsible for 66 per cent of the material. We know many of these people only by their name from a herbarium specimen. Even the prominent collectors have left behind few personal details; none appear to have written diaries detailing their activities.
A symbiosis of horticulture and painting: Exploring Henrietta Gulliver's gardens through her art Beverley Ronalds
Henrietta Gulliver (1866–1945) is known for her paintings but was also an enthusiastic professional florist, horticulturist and landscape designer. She melded these skills through her life: her gardens provided subjects for her landscape paintings, her intimate understanding of their flowers enriched her still-life studies, and her floral arrangements brimmed with creative flair.
Gardens and flowers were also a central feature in Henrietta's public activities. Her substantial portfolio of paintings, together with newspaper articles describing her work and her surviving correspondence, help us to visualise the lovely gardens and floral decors she created around Melbourne.
Xanthorrhoea: A personal history David Bedford
I have a confession to make, I'm not really a garden history expert. Instead, I have a background as a biologist, botanist, taxonomist, photographer and as a past director of the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens. Therefore, this article does not claim to be a definitive history of the genus Xanthorrhoea in Australian gardens – it is a personal account of my experience with growing members of this most distinctive Australian plant genus, which in turn will dispel some of the myths about cultivating xanthorrhoeas in the Australian garden.
Why is history important to garden designers? Because you must understand the past to plan for the future Jeannie Sim
History is my milieu, my motivation and my obsession. It probably began in high school (1973) when I prepared an art assignment on local historic buildings that were under-appreciated or under threat. This involved site visits, documentation and research: such fun finding a free‑standing brick kitchen on a sugarcane farm, a futuristic Eddie Oribin church and a slab hut in the upper headwaters of the Proserpine River (now under a dam lake). The twin attractions were hunting history and protecting old built design.

"That's not who you are!" I can still hear my mother exclaiming in a firm but loud voice as she pointed her finger at the object on the table. Even in this moment as I type, my head is shaking at the memory of that day and the very stupid action that landed the 14-year-old girl at the kitchen table. It was a stupid action, it wasn't a reflection of who I was, and for the life of me, I can't even remember why I did it.
The other morning, I felt impressed to read the very short letter of Jude. 25 verses. It reads more like an email than a letter. Its purpose is to challenge and encourage the readers (believers, which ultimately includes us) to contend and fight for the truths of the faith we have received. In the time he wrote, the followers of Jesus were experiencing much persecution, and many were being put to death for their beliefs.
Within this text there are several warnings, many of which we can draw parallels to our culture today. Then Jude turns back to the reader, "But you, beloved," he continues. Jude is saying what my mother said. That is not who you are!
If you spend any time at all on social media, watching television, movies, etc., you know it only takes a moment to get all caught up in something that is not representative of who you are. Yet so much social media and television, has good information to offer! We enjoy the freedom of a bountiful flow of information and entertainment. And with that freedom comes responsibility. Jude challenges us to "be extremely careful to keep yourselves free from the pollutions of world." For me it was a word of warning. Be responsible with the freedom you have.
As I read Jude's letter the other morning, I began to see the places in my life that I needed to hear my mother's voice, "that's not who you are." Here is a moment of honesty.
In my thinking, I can be more merciful and compassionate, toward others and toward myself. Recently I spoke at a women's luncheon and stressed the importance of keeping a check on what we think about ourselves. It's not just our actions that we get into trouble with. If we don't understand who we are and whose we are, we need a "but you, beloved" moment.
In my online business, I can be more careful about not doing something just because the others do it. It seems like everyone is either marketing an online business or selling a plan to market your business online. I've had several "but you, beloved" moments online.
In my personal life, I can be more diligent about keeping myself fastened to God's love and growing in my spiritual maturity. Thinking too much about my thoughts toward others or my thoughts toward myself, and studying online marketing more that studying God's word will move me in the opposite direction quicker than the wind.
There is only One who can help me with this challenge. Jude says it so well.
Now to the One with enough power to prevent you from stumbling into sin and bring you faultless before His glorious presence to stand before Him with ecstatic delight, to the only God, our Savior, through our Lord Jesus Christ, be endless glory and majesty, great power and authority, from before He created time, now and throughout all the ages of eternity.
I am not called to do life like the online masses. I am called to stay fastened to the love of God and live life from the power He places within me. In this season, I hear Jesus calling. Ok, maybe it sounds a lot like my mother, but the message is clear.
What is Jesus calling you to?
May 16 Have you lost your mind?
It's a life-changer, and it's safe.

The notion of cryosphere is not part of the dictionary prepared by the Royal Spanish Academy ( RAE ). The concept, however, is often used with reference to the surface water of our planet that is in a solid state due to low temperatures.
The cryosphere, in this setting, is made up of the Earth 's large masses of ice and snow. Therefore we can find the cryosphere in Antarctica and the North Pole, among many other regions, such as Greenland, Northern Siberia, the Arctic Ocean and Northern Canada and most of the peaks of the highest mountain ranges. of the world.
When the cryosphere originates from the freezing of the oceans, it does not affect the sea level, since solid water is formed from it. On the other hand, if the glaciers melt, they do cause a rise in sea level. The global warming that affects the cryosphere and causes the glaciers to melt, therefore, is causing the sea level to rise, a situation that could cause various territories to remain under water in the future.
Abbreviationfinder: Find definitions of English word – Audit. Commonly used abbreviations related to word are also included.
Most of the cryosphere is made up of icebergs. Glaciers, sea ice, and permafrost contribute the rest of the solid water surface. It is estimated that about three quarters of the planet 's freshwater reserves are found in the cryosphere.
The effects of climate change on the cryosphere are multiple, affecting life in general. The cryosphere itself, by melting, contributes to global warming since solid water (ice and snow) reflects solar energy, which returns to space. Instead, as ice and snow melt, the soil is exposed and the Earth's surface absorbs more of the sun's energy, which is then radiated back into the atmosphere, warming it.
We must highlight the importance of the role played by the cryosphere in regulating the climate of the entire planet. The reason certain parts of Antarctica can reflect close to 90% of the sun's incident radiation is that ice and snow have a high albedo.
Albedo is the percentage of radiation reflected by a surface compared to that incident on it. By definition, light-colored surfaces have higher albedo values than dark ones, just as bright ones outperform dull ones. The average albedo of our planet is around 38%.
The albedo is dimensionless, that is, it is a magnitude that does not have an associated physical dimension. Its measurement is carried out taking as reference a scale that begins at zero and reaches one as the maximum value. At the first extreme are the bodies that absorb all of the incident radiation, a theoretical object known as a black body ; the value "one" corresponds to a white body capable of reflecting all the radiation that falls on it.
Precisely, recent snow has an albedo of 86%, the highest value on our planet. If the cryosphere did not exist, therefore, the Earth's albedo would be much lower, its surface would absorb a greater amount of energy and, consequently, the temperature of the atmosphere would also be higher.
Another role of the cryosphere is the disconnection of the oceans and the atmosphere, which reduces the transfer of moisture and momentum (the mass of a body multiplied by its speed at a given point in time); this helps stabilize energy transfers at the atmospheric level.

How much light do you need to light up volleyball court?
Before you put in your volleyball court lighting for the court, you'll got to take many assessments. First, take offer yourself associate honest appraisal of your electrical capabilities. Unless you're an expert, it's best to contract associate linesman to mount and got wind of your court lighting or accessories.
To see your lighting needs, you'll need to live the dimensions of your court. customary volleyball courts square measure sixty feet by thirty feet, and there's usually 10 feet of out of bounds area around all the perimeters. this implies that you just can got to acquire enough lighting materials for a 50′ by 80′ area. the security of each the spectators and therefore the players depends upon having the right lighting for the court. Care should be taken to stop glare which will impede the sport by bright participants.
Volleyball fields in general are easy to build in your backyard, next to a cottage, in a random field, etc.
I like to play volleyball with friends during the summer, but people work sometimes late, we eat supper and by the time we get to our private volleyball court it is dark outside. What better place to go to get advice than CPF? I have been browsing these forums for weeks now and I must say I think I am turning into a flashaholic.
The main problem with volleyball field lighting is that players are often blinded by the spotlights , unless they are very very high in the sky and that is not really affordable or practical.
You see 1 spotlight on each side not too close to the field to avoid most blindness to players and so that the light is somewhat spread out evenly across the field.I am looking to build something that will look nice and work nice. I am generally pretty good at working with my hands and the objective of this project is to learn more about lighting, electrical circuits, etc.I will be updating this thread every now and then with pictures of my work in progress and some explanations of what I've done or want to do, think of it as a journal.
Electricity does not run anywhere within a 1500m radius of the volleyball court, it's "in the woods". This is why I need it to be battery powered.I put together a list of specifications I am looking for, here goes.
How did you come up with the 3500 lumens rating?I was thinking 1000 lumens would be PLENTY considering it doesn't need to light things that are very far, just flood in front.Each spotlight is meant to light an area of about 50x50 feet. Could use more information on this one.
What are the lux level of volleyball court?
For the recreational or low-level competition, the lighting requirement of volleyball field is 75 lux to 200 lux. If it is for professional and top-level matches, the value raises to 500 lux.
Before talking about the strengths of our lights for volleyball court, let's take a look at the basic information. The dimension of the field is 30 feet * 60 feet. If you wish to know the height of net, it is 7 ft 11 5/8 in (for men). As for the lux requirement, it varies with the nature of matches. For the recreational or low-level competition, the lighting requirement of volleyball field is 75 lux to 200 lux. If it is for professional and top-level matches, the value raises to 500 lux. Apart from brightness, we need to look at the lighting uniformity as well.
There are several items in the volleyball court lighting that should be achieved. However, from the practical point of view of physical exercise, for the indoor volleyball hall where the folk fitness exercise and leisure function, the lighting quality level should not adopt a one-size-fits-all hard index. It can be determined by the investment operator within a reasonable range according to the investment situation, the level of playing of the players, and many other technical and economic factors.
If you have any need, please contact us .
Satisfying use is practical, practical is good. Many indoor volleyball hall lighting cases show that the indoor volleyball hall lighting with civil fitness function can grasp the lighting quality, and the lighting effect of the stadium can reach a certain level, which can meet the requirements of playing sports.

NASA: Hubble Telescope Astronomers Observe Exoplanet That Snows Sunscreen
By NASA // October 28, 2017
This is an artist's impression of the gas giant planet Kepler-13Ab as compared in size to several of our solar system planets. The behemoth exoplanet is six times more massive than Jupiter. Kepler-13Ab is also one of the hottest known planets, with a dayside temperature of nearly 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit. It orbits very close to the star Kepler-13A, which lies at a distance of 1,730 light-years from Earth. (NASA Image)
(NASA) – NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has found a blistering hot planet outside our solar system where it "snows" sunscreen.
The problem is the sunscreen (titanium oxide) precipitation only happens on the planet's permanent nighttime side.
Any possible visitors to the exoplanet, called Kepler-13Ab, would need to bottle up some of that sunscreen, because they won't find it on the sizzling hot, daytime side, which always faces its host star.
Hubble astronomers suggest that powerful winds carry the titanium oxide gas around to the colder nighttime side, where it condenses into crystalline flakes, forms clouds, and precipitates as snow. Kepler-13Ab's strong surface gravity — six times greater than Jupiter's — pulls the titanium oxide snow out of the upper atmosphere and traps it in the lower atmosphere.
Astronomers using Hubble didn't look for titanium oxide specifically. Instead, they observed that the giant planet's atmosphere is cooler at higher altitudes, which is contrary to what was expected. This finding led the researchers to conclude that a light-absorbing gaseous form of titanium oxide, commonly found in this class of star-hugging, gas giant planet known as a "hot Jupiter," has been removed from the dayside's atmosphere.
This illustration shows the seething hot planet Kepler-13Ab that circles very close to its host star, Kepler-13A. On the nighttime side the planet's immense gravity pulls down titanium oxide, which precipitates as snow. Seen in the background is the star's binary companion, Kepler-13B, and the third member of the multiple-star system is the orange dwarf star, Kepler-13C. (NASA Image)
The Hubble observations represent the first time astronomers have detected this precipitation process, called a "cold trap," on an exoplanet.
Without the titanium oxide gas to absorb incoming starlight on the daytime side, the atmospheric temperature grows colder with increasing altitude. Normally, titanium oxide in the atmospheres of hot Jupiters absorbs light and reradiates it as heat, making the atmosphere grow warmer at higher altitudes.
These kinds of observations provide insight into the complexity of weather and atmospheric composition on exoplanets, and may someday be applicable to analyzing Earth-size planets for habitability.
"In many ways, the atmospheric studies we're doing on hot Jupiters now are testbeds for how we're going to do atmospheric studies on terrestrial, Earth-like planets," said lead researcher Thomas Beatty of Pennsylvania State University in University Park. "Hot Jupiters provide us with the best views of what climates on other worlds are like. Understanding the atmospheres on these planets and how they work, which is not understood in detail, will help us when we study these smaller planets that are harder to see and have more complicated features in their atmospheres."
Beatty's team selected Kepler-13Ab because it is one of the hottest of the known exoplanets, with a dayside temperature of nearly 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Past observations of other hot Jupiters have revealed that the upper atmospheres increase in temperature. Even at their much colder temperatures, most of our solar system's gas giants also exhibit this phenomenon.
Kepler-13Ab is so close to its parent star that it is tidally locked. One side of the planet always faces the star; the other side is in permanent darkness. (Similarly, our moon is tidally locked to Earth; only one hemisphere is permanently visible from Earth.)
NASA Scientists Suggest Planet Venus May Have Once Had Liquid-Water Ocean
The observations confirm a theory from several years ago that this kind of precipitation could occur on massive, hot planets with powerful gravity.
"Presumably, this precipitation process is happening on most of the observed hot Jupiters, but those gas giants all have lower surface gravities than Kepler-13Ab," Beatty explained.
"The titanium oxide snow doesn't fall far enough in those atmospheres, and then it gets swept back to the hotter dayside, revaporizes, and returns to a gaseous state."
The researchers used Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 to conduct spectroscopic observations of the exoplanet's atmosphere in near-infrared light. Hubble made the observations as the distant world traveled behind its star, an event called a secondary eclipse. This type of eclipse yields information on the temperature of the constituents in the atmosphere of the exoplanet's dayside.
"These observations of Kepler-13Ab are telling us how condensates and clouds form in the atmospheres of very hot Jupiters, and how gravity will affect the composition of an atmosphere," Beatty explained. "When looking at these planets, you need to know not only how hot they are but what their gravity is like."
The Kepler-13 system resides 1,730 light-years from Earth.

Q: Big data table MySQL query optimization I'm trying to optimize my MySQL query to run more smoothly, but now I'm stuck.
I'm using this query:
SELECT
    sr.path,
    sr.keywordId,
    sr.rank
FROM
    serp_results sr
WHERE
    sr.domain = 971
    AND sr.searchEngine = 1

And it tries to get results from the table where it is approximately 544,003,737 rows. I recently added a compound index for columns searchEngine,domain, but it didn't work.
This is the table structure:
| Field             | Type                 | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
|-------------------|----------------------|------|-----|---------|----------------|
| id                | bigint(10) unsigned  | NO   | PRI |         | auto_increment |
| keywordId         | int(10) unsigned     | NO   | MUL |         |                |
| searchEngine      | tinyint(3) unsigned  | NO   | PRI |         |                |
| position          | smallint(5) unsigned | NO   |     |         |                |
| rank              | float unsigned       | NO   |     |         |                |
| path              | varchar(500)         | NO   |     |         |                |
| domain            | bigint(20) unsigned  | YES  | MUL |         |                |
| firstDomainResult | tinyint(1) unsigned  | NO   |     |         |                |
| added             | date                 | YES  | MUL |         |                |

+ indexes:
| index_name                         | index_algorithm | is_unique | column_name                        |   |
|------------------------------------|-----------------|-----------|------------------------------------|---|
| serp_results_searchEngine_domain   | BTREE           | FALSE     | searchEngine,domain                |   |
| serp_results_domain_index          | BTREE           | FALSE     | domain                             |   |
| serp_results_added_index           | BTREE           | FALSE     | added                              |   |
| keywordId_searchEngine_position    | BTREE           | TRUE      | keywordId,searchEngine,position    |   |
| domain_firstDomainResult_keywordId | BTREE           | FALSE     | domain,firstDomainResult,keywordId |   |
| PRIMARY                            | BTREE           | TRUE      | id,searchEngine                    |   |

EDIT: It does take around 60+ seconds for a larger number of domain records.

A: Here's why it takes a long time.  (I will intersperse some questions to help confirm my statements.)

*

*Your table is InnoDB.  (Yes?)

*Your RAM is much smaller than the table (How big, in GB, is the table?  How much RAM?  What is the value of innodb_buffer_pool_size.)

*The 662,733 rows are scattered around the table.  (Or is there some reason why those rows might be clustered chronologically?)

*You have a spinning HDD, or you have SSD drive(s).  (I don't think this matters for my discussion; but which do you have?)

*PRIMARY KEY(id, searchEngine) is very strange, given that id is AUTO_INCREMENT.  (Can you justify it?)

*Please provide SHOW CREATE TABLE; it is more descriptive than DESCRIBE.

*Do you have other important queries?  (Sometimes speeding up one query will slow down others.  That is the direction I want to go.  Show the ones you don't want me to slow down.)

*Can domain be just INT?  (I am looking also at shrinking the table size.)

As to why more than 60 seconds...  A significant percentage of the 662,733 rows needed to be fetched from disk.
Get some of those questions answered; then I may have a concrete suggestion for speeding up the query.


We had a fantastic response to our Afternoon Cream Tea for Hospice Care Week. Thank you to our lovely volunteers for making sure everyone was well looked after, to everyone who donated baking and to those who came along to try some home baking.

State A wrestling: Aden Graves claims title No. 4, Sidney wins 5th straight
By: Alec Bofinger
BILLINGS — Make room for Aden Graves.
The Sidney senior defeated Lewistown's Wyatt Elam by decision at 160 pounds, 8-0, to win his fourth career state title. Graves is the 38th Montanan to accomplish the feat.
"I don't even really have words for it, you know what I mean? It's just something that I've had as a goal since I was little. To finally accomplish it, it's big and it's huge, not only for me, but everybody in Sidney that helped me get here," Graves said.
"That's the easiest coaching job I've ever done," Sidney head coach Guy Melby said. "I think he would have been a four-timer no matter who was coaching him. He's just that kind of kid. He does everything right. Good student, everybody likes him. He's just one of those guys that's willing to put the work in and he deserves to be a four-time state champion."
PHOTOS: State wrestling championships
That was the beginning of another banner day for the Eagles wrestling team. Sidney had five grapplers in the championship round, four of which won. Graves' freshman brother Reece picked up a state title at 113 pounds, junior Owen Lonski won at 126 pounds for his third title in three tries, and Zander Burnison defeated Frenchtown's Dylan McLean at 152 pounds.
The Eagles racked up 210.5 points, well clear of second-place Havre's 147.5. That marks a fifth consecutive team title for Sidney, giving the Eagles 13 in program history, breaking a tie with Havre for the most in Class A.
"Everybody kind of counted us out this year. We graduated a lot of guys. I kept telling everybody, 'We're not 300 good at the state tournament, but we're 200 good.' And we were," Melby said.
Sidney's lone championship contender not to come out on top was Grady Nelson at 170 pounds, as he fell to Havre's Orion Thivierge, who claimed his third consecutive title to wrap up his career. Miles City finished in third place thanks to a 1-2 finish in the heavyweight division, as Gabe Walker pinned teammate Holden Meged.

This article outlines a few key features of the TRICARE Prime plan, such as who is eligible for that and how that health care plan works.
TRICARE Prime health care plans are available in certain areas across the world. In order to determine whether you are eligible for receiving TRICARE Prime coverage, you can use your ZIP code to see if the area you reside in is a Prime Service Area. In order to access the benefits that are offered by this plan, you are required to enroll for the program. The benefits that are provided under the TRICARE Prime health care plan are those that meet the minimum coverage requirement, in accordance with the Affordable Care Act.
TRICARE Prime is available to active members of the military forces and members of their family, retired members of the military and members of their family, members of the National Guard and Reserve who have been activated plus their families, retired members of the National Guard and Reserve and their family members, recipients of the Medal of Honor and family members of recipients, and any survivors and ex-spouses (if they qualify for accessing these benefits).
Under the TRICARE Prime health care plan, a primary care manager will be assigned to you as soon as you enroll for it. This will be either a network provider or a military provider. The primary care manager will be responsible for providing you with all your basic, primary care. In case you need to see a specialist, the primary care manager will be the one responsible for referring you to a specialist and providing you with the referral that you need (together with each individual's regional contractor). In addition to this, the primary care manager will manage most of the basic health care; the primary care manager is responsible for making appointments with the doctor on your behalf and will also maintain a health record for each individual. Furthermore, the primary care manager will also accept any co-payments for you. In addition to this, under the TRICARE Primary health care plan, you do not need to worry about filing and making claims for reimbursement, because this will also be managed by the primary care manager.
The TRICARE Primary health care plan is one of the most cost effective and affordable health care plans. This is because if you are currently an actively serving member of the military forces, you do not need to pay anything out of your own pocket. If you have also enrolled any of your family members for the same health care plan, then they do not need to pay anything either unless they make use of a point-of-service option. Any other beneficiaries who are considered eligible for the TRICARE Prime health care option are required to pay a fee for enrollment, and may also need to pay network co-payments.
All actively serving members of the military forces are automatically enrolled in the TRICARE Prime health care plan. Other individuals can choose to register for this health care option, or avail the TRICARE Standard or TRICARE Extra options. Although TRICARE Prime is cheaper, it also provides less choice as far as service providers are concerned.
If I am injured in an automobile accident by an uninsured motorist and do NOT carry Bodily Injury Uninsured Motorist Insurance, will TRICARE cover my medical expenses?
How can I make an online appointment with my family practice provider?
Im an active duty marine with 3rd Bn, 2nd Mar. My wife is enrolled into deers, im just trying to figure out how to access Tricare to see if she is covered. Thank you.
Looking for something to cover the 20 percent my husband's medicare does not cover. He is also a VA patient.
What a terrible website! I have been searching relentlessly for the phone number for my regional provider and the links seem to navigate to the same few pages, over and over again! Please simplify this, because any changes that were done to this website were poorly done.
I am currently enrolled in TRICARE Prime and would like to ensure my mailing address is current.
Please advise and thanks in advance.
I'm about to retire on September 30, 2015 and tried to call someone on what needs to completed for me to continue into Tricare Prime afterwards. Contact has been made once and was directed to look for forms but, having difficulty finding them on the site. I could not make contact for assistance in finding the form(s).
What determines the reason for Tricare Prime only being in certain areas? We have a 6-year-old little girl with Aspergers (Autism spectrum) who needs ABA Therapy. Unfortunately, Tricare Standard is the only coverage we can get in the area where we live. Now we need to forfeit her services since we cannot afford to pay the difference. How often do the coverage areas change? I'd really hate to have to move somewhere because we can't get our daughter's services she so desperately needs.
I am a spouse of an active duty member who is currently enrolled in TRICARE prime.
My child and I are also enrolled. Do I (as a spouse) need to re enroll every year?
So someone at Tricare did not send me my bill again. So I got removed from prime. I don't want to go into the issues that I had with this company. My husband died active duty and I should be able to get prime!!!!! So I called yesterday and the customer service person told me to come to this website and I can print out a enrollment form. So can you please send that to me at my email address.
I am from Gravity Physical Therapy. I need a fax number for claims and/or benefits.
I am trying to enroll in the Prime Tricare Plan. I am a retired Navy Veteran, can you please provide me with the information on how to enroll. You need to clear your website on the many unnecessary information on it and provide the correct information under Plan your Tricare mode for us to make enrollment easy.
What is Tricare for life and Tricare plus. The Ansbach health clinic will not support me (medically) because I am not registered as Tricare plus. However, when I talked to the Tricare representive I am not eligible for Tricare Plus as a retired service member. I have received excellent service from all military facilities in Germany except the Ansbach health clinic which refuses to provide medical care because I am not a Tricare plus member.
do we have coverage in dermatology?, I'm in a tricare prime plan.
Topical treatment for hypertropic scarring and keloids resulting from burns, surgical procedures or traumatic events may be covered only if there is evidence of impaired function.
I am a prime member with spouse, witch will be turning 65 . Will she be able to stay with prime instead of using Medicare.
I am a spouse of a retiree. I am employed full time. I would like to have Tricare Prime as my primary insurance. How do I go about that?
How much does Tricare Prime pay for out of network dental and vision visits? I am new to Tricare (marriage to a retiree) and want to keep the same dentist and eye doctor that I had under the Federal Employee Health Benefits (FEHB) Program.
I served during the Vietnam War (13 years). When I separated from active duty I was given a disability of zero per cent. I have never tried to apply for any medical assistance from the VA. As a vet with a disability do I qualify for any aspect of Tricare? If so, what is my next step?
Unless you retired, you can't get Tricare of any sort (especially if you are only disabled at a zero rate). I'm 90% VA and I only qualified for Tricare when I married a retiree. I know there are certain services available to 100% disabled vets (like commissary and exchange shopping privileges), but I'm pretty sure Tricare isn't one of them. Sorry 🙁 The VA takes a LONG time to get registered for (depending on your location), so you should start that as soon as you can. You can apply to have your disability re-looked at because a zero percent rating will put you at the bottom of the priority list and you'll have to pay co-pays for VA medical services. If you need more help, I'd recommend speaking to a Veteran's Service Organization, they're free and really knowledgeable about all VA services. Good luck!
I'm trying to register for Tricare Care Prime…Please respond for information on how. My email is oelat@hotmail.com (Lise A. Tauiliili).
I am 21 years old and just recently graduated college. My dad has Tricare Prime, which I've been on since forever, and told me that soon I will no longer be eligible to be on his insurance. Is there any way ( by extra fees/ etc.) where I can stay on his insurance? Thanks!
My spouse and I use Froedtert Hospital (in Wisconsin), including their emergency (off-site) services; however in my wife's visit to the emergency site, they seemed to not understand how to bill for her services, leaving us with a $600+ bill to pay.
I have requested documents that lays out how they went about billing us; although we have Fed BCBS and Tricare Prime. I need to fax these documents to you, in order for them to be reviewed and to help resolve the matter. I cannot find a fax number to send the documents to you; please help. Thank you.
Since I retired in 2004 and started to work as Contractor and now as Civil Service (GS), I always used a civilian Medical Insurance (Blue Cross and Blue Shield) and use TRICARE PRIME as my Secondary insurance. On this system, I never had to pay any co-pay on my medical appointments and medical care.
Now, I'm getting bills from from my medical providers since Jan 2018. What's going on? Are there any changes on TRICARE that reduced the payments as secondary insurance?
I just got off the phone with Express Scripts regarding a prescription and was told that TRICARE wont cover prescriptions because I also have a private insurance. That is total BS, why do I pay for TRICARE Prime, I would expect it to at least pick up the co-pay, as they did in Germany at the Landstuhl Hospital.

About Brynn
Light Color & Nature
Watercolor & Oil Paintings
Capturing the light for this native Californian is a symbolic gesture which serves as a reminder that accurately represents the beauty of Brynn Carroll's birthplace. Warm, sun drenched summers hiking the luscious California National Forests or discovering the perfect place to paint along California's coastal beaches and nature preserves transformed Brynn's perceptions and observations impacting her painting process and choice of imagery.
It would be the foreign influence from a Japanese painter who rendered significance to Brynn's creative beginnings. At six years old, Brynn's first paint brush was a gift from her Japanese mentor - an avid, robust painter by the name of Marianne Huntsinger. Hours spent playing, drawing and painting in the Japanese Tea House on Marianne's property near her family's home was a creative haven set among koi ponds, waterfalls and large pomegranate tree's.
Marianne's artistic lifestyle and studio environment helped nurture Brynn's creative urges from a young age and would mark a significant change that could only be understood years later upon reflection. While attending American River College to obtain her Fine Arts Degree and teaching credential, Brynn's focus was primarily 2 dimensional work in Oils and Watercolors.
As Brynn focused her academic studies towards the Fine Arts, the influences from many professors shaped her future color aesthetics. Two of the most influential instructors were Gary Pruner and Wayne Thiebaud. After attending American River College, Brynn would continue her studies and attend University California State of Sacramento as well as extension courses at University California State Davis under the tutelage of Wayne Thiebaud to further her studies in color theory for the CA Realists. This would mark another pivotal point in Brynn's evolution with color aesthetics. As Brynn completed her courses, inspiration came from studying the Realists, Fauves, and Color movements happening in the California region. A conscious decision to focus on color theory and realistic forms from nature took shape as she began to transform her style.

Nextcloud near to doubled bookings in 2020, invests in expanding for 2021
Nextcloud closed 2020 with record numbers, increased its growth rate, nearly doubled order intake, increased its customer base by over 50%, and is expanding the team quickly to handle the growing demand. Continued innovation with a strong focus on meeting the real-life needs of modern organizations during the move to remote collaboration over 2020 has been key to this growth.
The business maintained profitability and financial independence using an organic growth strategy. The higher expansion rate was fueled by increased security awareness and a growing movement to bring back critical business applications on-premises. The release of Nextcloud Hub in January 2020 to glowing reviews in the press immediately doubled incoming lead flow, emphasizing the interest in the new capabilities it delivered and setting the stage for continued growth in the new year.
2020 has been a difficult year for many organizations. We have been fortunate to be able to help many in the transition to remote work and all our efforts were poured into further improving Nextcloud to support the day to day work of our customers. 2020 has further increased our lead in the market and we look forward to significant expansion in 2021.
— Frank Karlitschek, CEO and founder of Nextcloud
Continued growth supported by industry fundamentals and strong delivery
The release of Nextcloud Hub early in 2020 tripled the download rate of Nextcloud and doubled lead flow, showing strong interest in the market. During March and April, those numbers rose by another 4x as many organizations kicked off projects with Nextcloud to enable remote work during the first lock-down. Much of the rest of the year was focused on delivering on these projects and supporting customers with the increased need for real-time, remote collaboration. Nextcloud Talk in particular saw incredible growth, increasing bookings over 100 fold over 2019, which was already a strong year for Talk. Nextcloud Hub 19 delivered a wide range of technical improvements in Talk, further supporting this growth.
With a 50% growth in customer base and a near doubling of total bookings, Nextcloud managed a healthy growth in average subscription value. A continued strong focus on subscriptions over consulting and an increase of the minimum base subscription to 100 users is expected to further improve these numbers over 2021. The sales team has expanded by 50% to service new customers and this growth rate is planned to continue.
The rest of the team is also growing quickly, as we noted in the blog post we put out earlier today. More than a dozen team members joined us in the last 3 months!
After crossing the 100M pulls threshold in 2019, the Nextcloud Docker image passed the 500M benchmark in 2020. With an estimated 50% growth in the installed base, a 40% organic growth in website visits, 34% growth in community code contributions, and a 40% increase in Nextcloud apps to nearly 300, the wider Nextcloud ecosystem continued its healthy development. Google trends shows search interest in Nextcloud averaging almost 5x over its closest competition. With over 3000 code contributors over its lifetime and more than 700 in the last year as well as over 300 apps, Nextcloud is the largest self-hosted productivity platform ecosystem.
Partnerships key to success
The Nextcloud Conference was the incredibly successful virtual venue for Nextcloud Hub 20, a release build in collaboration with over half a dozen partners. The collaboration with industry vendors will continue, both on a technical level with deeper third-party integration in Nextcloud, and in business, as exemplified in our partnership announcement with European IT services giant Deutsche Telekom in early 2021.
The release of Nextcloud Hub 21 today, with the innovative High-Performance Back-end for Files and significant collaboration improvements, will further extend the technological and market lead Nextcloud has over its competition.

Why can't you install Windows 10 Creators Update on your old Atom netbook? Because Intel stopped loving you
Meanwhile, Redmond extends security fixes to tired CPUs
By Shaun Nichols in San Francisco 20 Jul 2017 at 05:02
Microsoft has blamed Intel for the sad trail of low-end PCs left out of the Windows 10 Creators Update rollouts.
The Redmond giant says its latest flavor of Windows can't support machines powered by Intel's Atom Cloverview processor family because Chipzilla has stopped supporting those chips. Without Intel providing firmware and driver updates for the five-year-old silicon, Microsoft says it can't guarantee its OS will be able to work reliably.
And because Microsoft dislikes dealing with unnecessary support calls and complaints, it'd rather you didn't use Creators Update or later versions, such as the upcoming Fall/Autumn Creators Update, on those old netbook processors. So you can't install it.
"Recognizing that a combination of hardware, driver and firmware support is required to have a good Windows 10 experience, we updated our support lifecycle policy to align with the hardware support period for a given device," a Microsoft spokesperson told The Reg on Wednesday night.
"If a hardware partner stops supporting a given device or one of its key components and stops providing driver updates, firmware updates, or fixes, it may mean that device will not be able to properly run a future Windows 10 feature update."
Built in 2012 and 2013, the Cloverview Atoms are 32-bit only, and were mostly used in netbooks and low-end PCs. Intel considers the four processors in the group to be at their end of "interactive" support, meaning: "Intel Customer Support Agents no longer respond to telephone, chat, community support forums, or email inquiries for this product."
So you can forget about software support for the processors from Intel, too.
Microsoft did say, however, that while Cloverview-based computers won't be able to get the Creators Update, they will still receive security patches for the next roughly six years, as long as they're running the Windows 10 Anniversary Update. That particular version of Windows 10 – build 1607 – is supposed to hit end-of-life in March 2018, but this deadline has been extended specifically for Cloverview Atoms.
"As part of our commitment to customers, we will be offering the Windows 10 Anniversary Update to these Intel Clover Trail devices on Windows 10, which we know provides a good user experience," the Microsoft spokesperson added. Clover Trail is, by the way, the platform name; the chips were codenamed Cloverview.
"To keep our customers secure, we will provide security updates to these specific devices running the Windows 10 Anniversary Update until January of 2023, which aligns with the original Windows 8.1 extended support period." ®

Even deeper down, at the bottom of an old undersea lake, an otherworldly monstrosity guards its eclectic hoard of oddities. What does it know about the Soulmonger?
This 44 page adventure adds Ishau as a location to your Tomb of Annihilation campaign. It describes the city's history and current inhabitants, including maps, new monsters, and treasure. In an undersea temple, characters face off against a coven of sea hags. The sunken wreck of the Decapus is the lair of sea spawn pirates. And among the ruins lurk giant crabs, skeletal sharks, vegetan mummies, and other monstrosities.
A second location, complete with keyed maps, is available to characters who wish to dig deeper: the underwater island-domain of a Morkoth, pulled into Chult by Acererak's magic. The Morkoth's home is in disarray. Trophies it collected from across the multiverse are now running wild and its treasures are being looted by marauders from Ishau. If the characters help, it may share its secrets with them.


An elegant early 18th century Yongzheng famille rose vase, of white-glazed classic rouleau shape with prominent shoulders and a tapered cylindrical body, painted with a lady reclining in a luohan bed, letter clutched in hand and posture contemplative. Various furniture, decorative items, and books occupy the scene, while two cats play at her feet. Two attending boys or sons hover near her bed. The painting workmanship is assured and full of the relaxed gracefulness characteristic of Yongzheng enamelware.
Portrayals of beautiful women in domestic quarters have long been a favorite genre in Chinese art. These types of genre painting typically feature women reclining or seated in a garden or interior space, pursuing refined leisurely activities (such as reading, playing the zither, playing a game of weiqi, or admiring antiques) while pets and children surround her. These images not only define the ideal Chinese woman—but also the ideal context and space for the ideal Chinese woman.
The Yongzheng Emperor himself famously commissioned a set of 12 paintings (Twelve Beauties at Leisure), featuring various beautiful women in the domestic sphere. The paintings were set into screens and displayed in the Deep Willows Reading Hall, a study within his private quarters at the Summer Palace.
