– What are we waiting for, when we deploy military drills that have made us the world's laughingstock due to their magnificent incompetence, in grotesque contrast with their proclaimed lofty goals?
We're waiting for the barbarians, they're supposed to invade us today.
– What's the reason behind our National Assembly's inaction, why have parliamentary functions been suppressed, while a National Constituent Assembly elected through fraud and representing a extremely limited minority of society decides the future and fate of an entire nation, as traditional democratic institutions fade in our memories?
Because the barbarians are invading us today. We can't legislate in the midst of an invasion. We can only prepare to fight them. All our efforts, our logistics, our economy and even our lives, must be focused on preparing for the barbarian invasion.
– Why has our emperor started to wake up so early, constantly talking on compulsory broadcasts; why does he shut down radio stations and why does he arrest, torture, murder and disappear people; why does he wear military garb and why has he decided to pretend we are at war?
Because the barbarians are invading us today and he personally wants to be in one of the fronts waiting for them, so they can get acquainted with our fury and our power. He wants to be there to see them completely and shamefully crushed, to watch them flee like cowards. He wants to be there, in the first line of fire and be the first to shout "Yankees go home and homa!" when the insolent foreigners attempt to set foot on our nation's soil.
– Why did our two consuls and praetors appeared today in their embroidered red robes; why do they wear bracelets with so many amethysts and embedded rings and shiny emeralds;why do they clasp today such precious, magnificently engraved silver and golden staves? Why do they wear luxurious clothes and live in pompous mansions?
Because the barbarians are coming today and they're impressed by these things; and they want to show them that they have billete que jode to face them down, because they've been stealing for two decades. In fact, the amount they've robbed this nation is unprecedented in the whole of human history. That's another wrong record we shattered.
They want the barbarians to know who they're messing with; that sanctions and freezing their accounts don't matter, that they have enough money everywhere to survive, that they won't lack food or medicines and that if, perchance, a high official should be wounded by mistake, they could be immediately transferred to Cuba and cared for. What happens to the people is different story, but the consuls and praetors want to show the barbarians that they're invincible, because lacking scruples makes people invincible.
– Why haven't the honorable orators, as they always have, spout their grandiose speeches and say their statements? Why aren't there massive rallies in Avenida Bolívar to boast of the people's wonderful support for the emperor, with aerial shots taken from a helicopter, like the old times, and broadcast by the impartial State TV channel?
Because the barbarians will invade us today and they don't understand our language. No speech will impress them. Besides, our great leaders are all training, because they'll all be in the first line of fire to lead by example when the barbarians invade us.
– Where does this sudden bewilderment and confusion come from? (The faces have grown so grim!) Why do people flee from the streets and squares in such a rush and return to their homes in anguish?
Because night came but the barbarians didn't. Some men have returned from our borders and reported that there's no such thing as barbarians.
– And what's going to happen to us now without barbarians? In the end, these people were some kind of solution.
– And why do they arm thousands of people who have no experience handling rifles, why are weapons being freely distributed, if the barbarians won't invade us? Why is our army training, then?
To oppress their own people. The emperor wants to rule even if that means he must annihilate every last one of his subjects. In the end, it turns out that we're the barbarians.

Q: Material UI - How a Date Picker could only select month/year I'm using MaterialUI in a project and I need a date picker (https://material-ui.com/demos/pickers/) that is able to only select month and year, what props should I use to achieve this?

A: The Material UI date picker docs specify that you can use a custom renderer here.
Here is the codesandbox for the custom renderer. You might be able to use the custom renderer with the format prop to achieve what you are looking for.

A: All links here are invalid so i want to give a quick summarization on this question, Material UI has a simple functions for what you need now (using DatePicker component), refer to official docs:
https://mui.com/components/date-picker/#views-playground
Codesandbox example here
as you can see there, adding:
views={['year', 'month']}

This is one of the few lots remaining in Top of Skyway known for stable granite soils and ideally located near over 1000 acres of hiking and biking trails to enjoy. This is one of my favorite streets in this sub area due to the location and the only lot remaining on this street. Cohesive neighborhood where everyone looks out for each other. Easy access with east facing driveway where the snow melts fast. Select your own builder and designer to create your ideal NEW HOME! Great access directly off of Vista Grande.


Our first Group Blog of the New Year and it's a great one. How do you develop secondary characters? Do you even have a favorite secondary character?
I thought I'd start with the definition. The secondary character is more than just a minor character and is responsible for progressing the story in some way. He or she is necessary to the story because this character reveals key details, motivates the protagonist, foils the protagonist, or helps define the story's setting. The secondary character almost always interacts with the protagonist on some level, be it through dialogue or a memory that the protagonist has of this secondary character. They help us show, not tell.
I develop mine much like I do my main characters but with less detail. I decide who needs a friend or someone to talk to, someone who helps move the story forward. Then I do a little back story, a description, some personality traits and some good and bad points. I may not write about any of it, but it helps get the feel of the secondary character. As with the main characters, I get to know them better as the story progresses, but as secondary characters I write them a little looser and can have fun with them. I was once warned not to like them too much, or they could take over the story.
Hmm, a favorite secondary character… I love Gran in my Hawkins' Ranch series. She's the matriarch of the family and a busy body, who moves a lot of the stories forward, especially the romance part. And Betty, who owns the Diner which is gossip center, and she knows everything and loves the townspeople. And from the Foundation, The Fourth Victim, there's Link Stone, (for entirely different reasons) the security officer and Carly's semi-bodyguard, but he's being elevated in the next book. I'm looking forward to reading what other authors have to say. Please join me by checking them out.

Update on injured Dlamini due this week
The preliminary findings of an independent probe into the manhandling of pro cyclist Nicholas Dlamini is expected later this week.
CAPE TOWN - The preliminary findings of an independent probe into the manhandling of pro cyclist Nicholas Dlamini is expected later this week.
Dlamini's arm was broken during a scuffle with SANParks rangers in the Silvermine Nature Reserve just before Christmas.
He allegedly didn't have permission to cycle in the park.
READ: Five park rangers suspended after Dlamini altercation
The injury means Dlamini will miss out on a major Australian tour next week.
A year ago he was crowned King of the Mountains in Australia but Dlamini won't be returning to defend his title.
Dlamini's manager says because this is now a legal matter, Dlamini's been advised not to speak to the press.
He's being represented by an international law firm that's lodged a case on his behalf.
READ: Painful wait for injured cyclist Nic Dlamini
SANParks says in view of potential litigation, it too can't make any public statements on the matter.
However, it's confirmed that the rangers involved in this incident are still on suspension.
It's expecting a report on the matter from a law firm this week.
Dlamini's management says it's too early to say how his injury will affect his career ambitions which include competing in the Tokyo Olympics.
A prognosis is not expected until he's met with his surgeon in mid-February.

From Crisis to Opportunity: A Policy Playbook on Nonproliferation Sanctions
The use of multilateral sanctions paired with diplomacy and incentives-based bargaining was once a hallmark of US nonproliferation policy and helped to advance security goals in South Africa, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Iran, and other countries. However, the Trump administration presided over an unraveling of US nonproliferation policy by rejecting cooperative approaches and misusing these instruments of diplomatic persuasion as unilateral means of punishment and coercion. The result has been a string of nuclear security reversals and an increase in global proliferation dangers. The administration of President-Elect Joe Biden will have considerable work to do in reconnecting with US allies and repairing the damage done to multilateral tools of statecraft, especially nonproliferation sanctions. But it also has an opportunity to refine and improve the role of sanctions and diplomacy in stemming the spread of weapons of mass destruction.
This policy report traces the negative consequences of Washington's misuse of sanctions under the Trump administration, argues for a recalibration of US nonproliferation policy, and articulates specific recommendations for the incoming Biden administration.

There are two categories of employers for Form W-2 reporting of health care.
Transitional Relief is in place for calendar year 2012 and remains in place until the IRS issues further guidance. Note that any guidance that expands the reporting requirements will apply only to calendar years that start at least six months after the guidance is issued. For example since we have only 4 months left in 2012, any guidance issued will not apply to the 2013 tax year reported in January of 2014. We will monitor the IRS guidance and report further when additional guidance is released.
For those who don't qualify for transitional relief, the value of insurance will be reported in Box 12 of Form W-2 with a code DD. There is no box on Form W-3 for the reported premiums. The amount to report on Form W-2 is the total of amounts paid by the employer and employee on any employer sponsored coverage other than those noted below. This would include any amounts paid to cover family members as well. Additionally, any changes in cost during the year must be reflected in the premium reported. This would apply both to increases in premiums and to changes in insurance elections by the employee. It is important to remember that reporting DOES NOT impact coverage taxability. Amounts reported that are not taxable should not be added to wages in Box 1 of the W-2 form.
The Premium Charged Method is for Insured Group Health Plans only and is exactly the premiums charged.
The IRS has created a chart illustrating the types of coverage that must be reported. This can be accessed here.


Have You Seen These 10 Missing Children from Colorado?
It's been a couple months since I did a search of the website for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. I logged onto the site this morning and was amazed how many new faces I am seeing for children that are missing throughout the state.
To me, there isn't any difference between these children, whether they were runaways or if they were kidnapped. In either case, there are families in our state are struggling to cope with the fact that their children are somewhere that they can't see them.
My goal is to do whatever we can to bring these families together, and have a happy ending in every case listed below.
Please do your part and look at the children we have listed. If you have any information that can assist authorities in their safe return home, please call them immediately and let's make it happen.

into the center of it
August 11, 2015 January 23, 2016 / nativetotheplace
LAST SUNDAY, I drove into Watts pulled by something larger than an anniversary.
I've been back and forth a great deal in recent years, months, weeks — for work and personal visits — but this journey felt more like flipping back to the opening pages of a book, to re-orient myself in a story that didn't move the way I had expected.
I've been swimming through all the coverage today — and in the weeks leading up to — this 50-year anniversary of a what began as a traffic stop and then exploded into an italicized exclamation. One that now echoes across decades.
Like so many, I've been revisiting photos and essays and spoken testimonials that so freshly recall that stretch of hot August days. I've been talking to old friends and old colleagues. I stare deep into the frames of these grainy newspaper images of collapsed buildings, piles of wood, the silhouettes of storefronts, fancy blade-signs and realize — once again — that so many never re-opened. The story finished there. Full stop.
As a small child, I felt some foreign emotion creep in, take up real space; a feeling related to the noise, the smoke, the tanks, men in uniforms and guns at the market — where we bought our milk and fruit — the strange measure of days that hemmed us in within our own home: That new word "curfew" flashed in my brain like neon.
August 1965 was the summer my grandfather visited from New Orleans to take the first, in-person glimpse of his infant grandson. The two-pronged reality of that visit: the first bloom of the new family branch, strikingly backdropped by the racial inequity and violence not at all foreign to this quiet and proud Southern-born man — just Southern-California style. Early the next morning he woke before the rest of us, disappeared. We later learned, through his detailed stories, he'd wandered off, to find the hot center of it. To know the story better.
How — he must have reasoned — could you be so close and not try?
The journalist that I would become understands.
Now, as an adult, I realize the emotion I must have been trying to sort through was the very same that might accompany the instant when a table might be upturned and there's a moment — long, protracted out-of-real time — where everything was still in the air. The finish yet to be determined. Ruin or reclamation? It was all still up for grabs.
So fast. So long.

Yesterday, the NBA released its schedule, and everyone rushed to talk about when the big games are happening (Christmas) and where (Miami). But who got the easiest rides, and who got screwed?
The NBA is a more or less predictable league, less sensitive to forces outside of "This is the best team" than other sports' top levels. Even still, with the schedule just a day old, it would be dumb to go into which teams play the toughest opponents, since injuries or trades or awful seasons can happen. But you can look at how the schedule itself is constructed and see which teams play on the shortest rest, which have the longest, and how the back-to-backs shake out.
We do know that the back-to-backs are more evenly distributed this year than last, with just one team (the Pistons) having 22 back-to-backs, and six with 21 (Nuggets, Hawks, Hornets, Spurs, 76ers, and Bucks). The Heat and Lakers each have 16 back-to-backs, and the Magic, Pacers, Mavericks, and Kings have 17. Everyone else is packed in at 18, 19, or 20.
Overall, OKC and the Clippers look like they're pretty boned, while the Bucks, Wolves, and Jazz are getting off more or less scot-free. We'll let you know when the detailed version of this year's analysis is out, though.
And Ed is one of the best NBA follows, so you should get him in your feed if you haven't yet.


Performances and Distinctions: Since moving to New York in 2012, saxophonist Nick Brust has established his voice on the saxophone with an adventurous harmonic imagination and incisive, soulful sound. Over the past few years, he has found his niche as a bandleader and composer, forming multiple groups to explore the many moods present in jazz. Nick has performed with many highly acclaimed musicians in NYC including Matt Clohesy and Gilad Hekselman. Nick released an EP, 'Brooklyn Folk Songs,' with his newest group, the Nick Brust Quartet in January 2015. Before moving to New York, Nick attended New England Conservatory in Boston where he studied with Jerry Bergonzi, Frank Carlberg, Ran Blake, John McNeil, Donny McCaslin, and Miguel Zenón. He graduated with honors in May 2012 with a Master's degree in Jazz Performance. Prior to attending NEC, Nick attended the Eastman School of Music, where he studied with Walt Weiskopf, Harold Danko, and Chien-Kwan Lin. Nick graduated in May 2010 with a Bachelor's degree in Jazz Studies and Music Education. Nick has continued his studies in New York with Will Vinson and Lage Lund.
Statement of Teaching Philosophy: "In order to build a more complete understanding and appreciation of music, I believe in teaching from multiple perspectives including listening, improvisation, reading, writing, and analysis in conjunction with learning standard repertoire for each student's instrument and style. As a student develops, I then encourage them to develop their own personal sound based on what they have studied as well as what they like to listen to. For saxophone, I utilize several idiomatic method books, including '25 Daily Exercises for Saxophone by H. Klose' and '48 Famous Studies for Saxophone by W. Ferling' as well as the Rubank method books."

Mitch McConnell criticizes the RNC for censuring 2 Republicans on Jan. 6 panel
Rachel Treisman | NPR
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., speaks to reporters on Tuesday in Washington, D.C. He criticized the RNC for its censure of Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois.
Drew Angerer / Drew Angerer
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has criticized the Republican National Committee over its recent censure of two House Republicans, in a rare break with his party.
In remarks on Tuesday, McConnell criticized the way the RNC's resolution had described the Capitol riot and said the national party's role has traditionally been to support all of its members regardless of their positions. However, when asked, he said he continues to back RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel.
"The issue is whether or not the RNC should be sort of singling out members of our party who may have different views from the majority," he said. "That's not the job of the RNC."
On Friday, the RNC censured Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois for their participation on the House panel investigating the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection.
The censure resolution says the RNC shall "immediately cease any and all support" of Cheney and Kinzinger as members of the Republican Party. McDaniel said in a statement added to the original resolution that the two "crossed a line" in their roles as committee members.
"They chose to join Nancy Pelosi in a Democrat-led persecution of ordinary citizens who engaged in legitimate political discourse that had nothing to do with violence at the Capitol," she wrote.
McConnell (and many others, including Cheney) publicly disagreed with that characterization of Jan. 6.
"We all were here. We saw what happened," he said. "It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election from one administration to the next."
The censure is largely symbolic for Kinzinger, who announced last year that he won't be seeking reelection. The situation is more complicated for Cheney, who has faced mounting attacks from her party — and was already removed from her House leadership role — over her public criticism of former President Donald Trump.
While the RNC passed the censure resolution with overwhelming support, it has gotten mixed reviews from Republicans on Capitol Hill.
"A lot of rank-and-file Republicans I talked to on the Hill said they were fine with the censure but didn't want to get into the details about how the resolution characterized the attack," NPR congressional reporter Deirdre Walsh told Morning Edition.
Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley said the RNC vote "reflects the view of most Republican voters," underscoring just how much of the party's base continues to support the former president.
Others disagree, with some Senate Republicans viewing the censure resolution as a distraction and a mistake.
They want to focus on President Biden's performance while his approval ratings are down, Walsh said, and think the party should spend more energy on the midterms as a referendum on his economic record.

Victory? What Victory?
Watching the nightly news, you might not have known that U.S. forces achieved a historic victory in Fallujah this week. You might not have known this because all the U.S. media, spearheaded by NBC News, seemed to care about was one Marine shooting an insurgent pretending to be dead. As the Wall Street Journal lamented on Thursday, "Have we lost all sense of moral proportion?"
Is one Marine, wary of "dead" terrorists rigged with bombs, more important than the 40-plus Marines who gave their lives in the battle? Does one Marine, weary of fighting and seeing his buddies cut down by fanatics, trump the torture chambers, starving prisoners and disfigured victims that U.S. forces found throughout the city? It would be laughable if it weren't so tragic.
In just over a week, our guys killed more than 1,200 terrorists, captured 1,000 more and liberated a city in the grip of Islamists for the past eight months. And all the media can do is find their next Abu Ghraib. Memo to big media executives: The election is over and you lost. Now get back to reporting the news.

Kolkata: Three faculty members of the Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute (SRFTI) in Kolkata have been suspended over complaints of sexual harassment by some students.
The institute's registrar Anindya Acharya said they had recently received complaints from some girl students against the three faculty members.
"Three faculty members have been suspended. Our internal complaints committee is looking into the matter after which further action would be taken as per the rules," he said.
The official refused to share further details, saying it was a quasi-judicial process and he would not be able to comment as the investigation was ongoing into the matter.

Extreme weather threatens internet infrastructure, broadband pioneer warns
Internet outages can interrupt operations at places like hospitals.
by YCC Team April 5, 2021 December 13, 2022
Your phone may be wireless, but the internet infrastructure it depends on is not.
"Our access to the internet is all on fiber optic cable. And that cable of course is either run underground or strung across telephone poles," David Theodore says.
Theodore helped develop broadband technology in the 1980s and is now co-founder of a company called Climate Resilient Internet.
He says extreme storms and flooding can damage fiber optic cables and cause internet outages that have major consequences.
"Data underlies all of our critical infrastructure," he says. "If you're a hospital and you lose internet access for hours or days … you have no access to patient records, hospital information systems, your supply chain is broken."
So Theodore's company promotes a backup internet system that transmits data wirelessly using microwaves and millimeter waves. If fiber optic cables go down, this system will allow information to travel between individual rooftops and data centers that are out of harm's way.
The system does not provide as much bandwidth as fiber. But Theodore says that in an emergency, it can keep data flowing and critical institutions operating.

Thiruvananthapuram being the capital of Kerala, has one or other religious, state or tourist festivals celebrated every now and then throughout the year.
An entire village of the bygone days of rural Kerala is recreated with artisans, Nalukettu (traditional house), temple, astrologer etc., so that the visitors will be able to see and visualize how people of Kerala in those days went about their lives. The festival lasts for a week from 3rd January. The village is set near Kovalam with displays of cultural performances like kathakali, koodiyattam, kalaripayattu, theyyam etc.
The festival is conducted during the 2nd week of February. Specialized chefs stalls for each state. Spread through seven evenings, one can taste almost all types of delicacies of Indian cuisine from various regions of India. Those prepared are even sold. It will be worthwhile to have a go at the dishes from Kashmir to Kanyakumari.
The Tourism Development Corporation organises the dance festival. Leading artists of Bharatanatyam, Mohiniyattam, Kathak, Odissi, Modern ballet and other folk form will perform at the open-air theatre of Nishagandhi in the Kanakakunnu Palace compound. Admission is free and the festival usually is accompanied with music.
This festival is celebrated twice in a year, once in Oct.-Nov and other in March-April. Vetta represents Lord Vishnu hunting down the demon of evil in the forest. The next day afternoon the Arattu procession begins. Images of Lord Padmanabha, Lord Krishna and Lord Narasimha are carried to the Arabian Sea at Sangumugham beach escorted by the members of the Royal Family. At sunset the images are ritually bathed in the sea. Returning the images in a procession back to the Padmanabhaswamy temple concludes the event. Several cultural programs including all-night Kathakali are performed during the festival.
Attukal Pongala is celebrated between 18-26 of February, every year, at Attukal Bhagavati Temple. It is a ten-day festival. On the 9th day, thousands of women devotees from many parts of the state gather in the vicinities of the temple to prepare pongala, a favourite offering to the goddess. They prepare pongala by cooking jaggery, coconut and banana in certain proportions and offer to the goddess. The ritual starts early morning and ends by afternoon. The uniqueness of the festival is that only women are allowed to do the offerings on that day.

Two rallies, same message: Portsmouth families want answers
By: Allison Mechanic
Portsmouth, Va. - Monday was a busy night in Portsmouth with two organized rally's and marches for the death of two Portsmouth men killed by police and one who died while in police custody.
The first rally and march was at the Portsmouth Wal-Mart, the scene of where William Chapman was killed by police on April 22. The NAACP organized the rally and march around the parking lot. Champman's family members, local leaders and the family of Walter Brown, the man killed by police inside of his Colin Drive home in March, all spoke.
An hour after the NAACP's rally, the family of Derrick Lewis, the man who died shortly after being brought into the Portsmouth Jail held their own rally. Although the rally's and marches were separate, organizers say they stand together.
"It's supposed to be all in one but things just got a little confused so there was a lack of communication but we want to bring everyone together until we get answers and keep moving, keep moving, keep moving and we won't stop," said Angela Lewis, the wife of Lewis.
Rally organizers agree with Lewis and say that they will keep organizing and holding more of these events until they get to the bottom of what happened to their loved ones.

The government has taken the rare action of cutting a unit of L-3 off from all new business while it investigates alleged misuse of an email system and has threatened the broader company, saying it is "considering" suspending the parent subsidiary as well.
A source with long experience of black contracting, and who knows L-3 reasonably well, characterized the suspension as "a very serious matter" for both the government and the company. This source said that such suspensions usually occur "because the contracting agency does not feel they have gotten the attn of the company's senior leadership."
We bet that L-3's senior leadership is fully engaged now.
L-3 Communications Corporation received notice that its Special Support Programs Division (L-3 SSPD, formerly known as L-3 Joint Operations Group (JOG)) has been temporarily suspended from receiving any new contracts or orders from U.S. Federal Government agencies, including under its Special Operations Forces Support Activity (SOFSA) contract. The notice of temporary suspension was received from the Office of the Deputy General Counsel of the U.S. Air Force on June 4, 2010 and relates to an on-going governmental investigation of L-3 SSPD concerning the alleged inappropriate use of an e-mail system by L-3 SSPD employees. L-3 SSPD is continuing to perform on outstanding orders under its existing contracts, including the SOFSA contract. The temporary suspension will remain in effect until lifted at the discretion of the Air Force. The Air Force has also notified L-3 that it is considering whether a suspension of L-3 Communications Integrated Systems L.P., as the parent of L-3 SSPD, is also warranted.


Migrate your data to Azure SQL DB with no downtime.
Bridge SQL Server on-premises/on VMs to Azure SQL DB.
The way we enable Azure SQL DB as a subscriber is by extending existing logic of Transactional Replication. From the perspective of your experience with it, the only difference you'll notice is when you create a subscriber: you give the URL to your Azure SQL DB instead of giving the name of a server or an instance. Because we designed the feature so you have a seamless experience, and you already know about Transactional Replication, the learning curve to use this capacity is 0. It will be very easy and quick for you to start replicating your data to Azure SQL DB.
How does it work? There is "no replication" service per say in Azure SQL DB. The actual replication of data is performed through the Distribution agents.

Q: Change to log scale while displacing the vertical scale of the marginal histogram on both axes in Seaborn jointplot I am trying to draw jointplot with seaborn but I am not able to do the following:

*

*Change the scale to log-scale (similar to the way to do this in matplotlib  ax.set_yscale('log')) on both axes of the marginal histograms.

*Display the vertical scale on both of the marginal histograms.
I attempted to do the following for point 2 above but it doesn't display vertical scale:
my_plot = sns.jointplot(x='x_axis', y='y_axis', data=my_df)
my_plot.fig.set_figwidth(19)
my_plot.fig.set_figheight(3)
for tick in my_plot.ax_marg_x.get_yticklabels():
    tick.set_visible(True)
plt.show()

For point 1, I don't really how to attempt it.
Thank you so much for your help in advance.

A: An alternative option is to take the log (np.log10() or np.log()) of your y-column and plot that.
Example dataset
np.random.seed(seed=1)
ds = (np.arange(3)).tolist()*10
x = np.random.randint(100, size=(60)).tolist()
y = np.random.randint(low=1, high=100, size=(60)).tolist()
df = pd.DataFrame(data=zip(ds, x, y), columns=["ds", "x", "y"])

Jointplot on true y value
g = sns.jointplot(data=df, x="x", y="y")

Take log10 and jointplot it
df["log10y"] = np.log10(df["y"])
g = sns.jointplot(data=df, x="x", y="log10y")


This e-book presents an summary of the present kingdom of information of Arctic ice cabinets, ice islands and comparable beneficial properties. Ice cabinets are everlasting parts of ice which go with the flow at the ocean floor whereas connected to the coast, and customarily ensue in very chilly environments the place perennial sea ice builds as much as nice thickness, and/or the place glaciers stream off the land and are preserved at the ocean floor. those panorama positive factors are really poorly studied within the Arctic, but they're probably hugely delicate signs of weather swap simply because they reply to adjustments in atmospheric, oceanic and glaciological stipulations. fresh fracturing and breakup occasions of ice cabinets within the Canadian excessive Arctic have attracted major medical and public cognizance, and produced huge ice islands that may pose a probability to Arctic transport and offshore infrastructure. a lot has been released approximately Antarctic ice cabinets, yet so far there has no longer been a devoted e-book approximately Arctic ice cabinets or ice islands. This booklet fills that gap.
This ebook examines the roots of up to date environmental awareness and motion by way of either well known event and culture. a variety of geographical and thematic case-studies discover the parable, culture and collective reminiscence that form our environmental inspiration. Containing a wealth of empirical resource fabric, this e-book may be beneficial for sociologists and historians alike.
During this entire, one-volume reference, Nature Conservancy scientist Bryan P. Piazza poses 5 key questions:—What is the Atchafalaya River Basin? —Why is it vital? —How have its hydrology and ordinary habitats been controlled? —What is its present country? —How will we be certain its survival? For greater than 5 centuries, the Atchafalaya River Basin has captured the flow of the Mississippi River, changing into its major distributary because it reaches the Gulf of Mexico in south Louisiana.
This booklet strains the evolution of weather swap study, which, lengthy ruled via the common sciences, now sees higher involvement with disciplines learning the socio-cultural implications of switch. of their creation, the editors chart the altering function of the social and cultural sciences, delineating 3 strands of analysis: socio-critical techniques which attach weather swap to a decision for cultural or systemic switch; a mitigation and adaption strand which takes the actual truth of weather swap as a place to begin, and makes a speciality of the troubles of weather change-affected groups and their participation in political motion; and eventually, culture-sensitive examine which areas emphasis on indigenous peoples, who give a contribution the least to the explanations of weather swap, who're affected so much via its effects, and who've the least leverage to persuade an answer.
This edited publication is dedicated to environmental hazard administration in gasoline impacted polar ecosystems of Russia, one of the most well liked issues of recent environmental technological know-how. The contributions from specialists hide issues that shed new gentle at the affects of oil and traditional fuel construction on arctic ecosystems within the state in addition as biogeochemical engineering applied sciences to regulate toxins in those parts.

Q: How to find dielectric constants of ferroelectric materials experimentally? What is the procedure to find out dielectric constant of barium titanate at different temperatures ?

A: A simple way to do this requires an LCR (inductance, capacitance, resistance) meter, an oven/furnace/hotplate, and a thermocouple.  With an LCR meter, you can measure the capacitance as well as the loss tangent, $ \delta $ at the same time.  If you attach a thermocouple to the sample, and ramp the temperature slowly (less than 1 Celcius/min), you can measure the capacitance and loss tangent at each temperature.  It is best to use a oven/furnace that allows you to both the final desired temperature, and the ramp rate.  If you ramp too quickly, the pyroelectric currents generated by your sample can cause error in your LCR measurement.
If the LCR meter and thermocouple reader can be computer controlled, you can automate the entire process.
Barium titanate has more than one Curie temperature, where the dielectric constant, and hence capacitance, will be at a local maximum.  The only Curie temperature for barium titanate above room temperature is at roughly 120 Celcius.
The dielectric constant at each temperature of your material can easily be calculated from the capacitance at each temperature as long as you know the geometry of your sample.

A: A capacitance bridge setup is good. One branch contains the known variable capacitance and a resistor. The other arm a resistor and the ferroelectric material. Adjust the known for null output.

A: This is pretty straight forward. All you need to do is measure the capacitance of the sample at constant frequency and at different temperatures.
Imagine the sample as a parallel plate capacitor of thickness D and area A.
Now Dielectric constant E = C D/A. With these calues you can plot the values w.r.t different temperatures and arrive at your curie temperature if that what you are looking at.
Now the trick is to measure the capacitance of the sample. You have arrive at a simple circuit to convert input voltage and measure the unknown capacitance.

One such configuration is shown above. You can tweak the R value to fit the capacitance in your digital multimeter.

Civil aircraft fabrication industry is one of the largest industries in the universe which Boeing and Airbus are the two big participants who dominated the industry. The chief former rivals have exited civil aircraft fabricating market, for case, Boeing merged with McDonnell Douglas Corp in August 1997 ( Boeing, 2010a ) , and left Airbus and Boeing operating in a close duopoly planetary market. Boeing now headquartered in Chicago and employs more than 158,000 people in 70 states with $ 60.9 billion gross in 2008 which founded in 1916 ( Boeing, 2010b ) . Airbus, by contrast, created in 1970 with 52,000 employees comes from more than 80 nationalities ( Airbus, 2010 ) and gained aaˆsA¬43.3 billion grosss ( EADS, 2008 ) . Apparently, it is critical of import for new participant to last and thrive by analyzing the macro and sector environment. This study tries to seek the critical success factors and measure whether this is an attractive sector to vie in by research secondary information. This study will get down with evaluate key drivers for alteration in order to cognize the external environment issues. Second, Porter 's five force analysis and industry life rhythm will set about to analysis the construction of this industry. Finally, the study is traveling to reason critical success factors from the findings draw from last two stairss.
Macro-environmental influences sometimes are important of import for an administration to last and thrive. Therefore, there are five external key diver listed below and pull from PESTEL analysis about civil aircraft fabrication industry.
Global economic recession had impact on civil aircraft fabrication in several facets. On one manus, the direct influence is the two companies received fewer orders than earlier. For case, the figure of orders Boeing received decreased significantly in 2009 ( 142 ) compared to 2008 ( 662 ) and 2007 ( 1,417 ) ( Talton, 2010 ) . On the other manus, the recession had led to downsizing in both Boeing and Airbus. For illustration, Boeing announced that it would cut 4,500 occupations ( Weber, 2009 ) . So the new entrants can derive entree to the expertness in this industry easy. It means the new maestro of those staff will cognize non merely the market but besides some secret of the two chief rivals.
Fuel monetary value is besides an influence for aircraft fabrication industry. Harmonizing to The Times ( 2008 ) , more than $ 100 billion of aircraft orders have cancelled or postponed resulted from high monetary value of fuel. It indicates that if one company can bring forth the more environment-friendly aircraft will pull possible purchasers who want to take advantage of low fuel cost.
Political influences sometimes are critical of import for fabricating industry. For illustration, IATA had introduced emanation policy options in order to better fuel efficiency and emanations for protecting environment ( IATA, 2010 ) . Otherwise, the companies need to pay immense fund. Therefore, some companies need to redesign the constituent such as engine and exhaust system. Furthermore, some authoritiess intervene international trade is another issue can non disregard, viz. , late Boeing suffered menace from Chinese authorities after United States weaponries sold to Taiwan ( Lubin, 2010 ) .
Both of Boeing and Airbus on a regular basis accuses the other of having unjust province assistance from their several authoritiess, viz. , the WTO Boeing-Airbus difference ( European Commission, 2007 ) . The ground why is aircraft fabricating company demand important saddle horses of money to put up and put in research and development. For illustration, Gresing and Johnsson ( 2007 ) cited pure development cost of Boeing 787 was $ 10 billion.
Advanced engineerings are one of the cardinal factors for this industry. It helps the company non merely maintain the distinction of merchandise but besides save internal resources. Boeing 787 dreamliner is a life cogent evidence to turn out this, viz. , 50 per centum of the primary construction of Boeing 787 is made of composite stuffs to accomplish higher strength-to-weight ratio ( Hawk, 2005 ) . In add-on, Boeing announced General Electric and Rolls-Royce have developed new engines which will better the fuel efficiency about 20 % compared to Boeing 767 ( Boeing, 2010c ) . The new aircraft will pull clients who want to take advantage of lower care cost.
Porter 's five force analysis and industry life rhythm will set about below in order to measure whether civil aircraft fabrication industry is an attractive sector to vie in.
Appendix 7.1 illustrates the Porter 's five forces analysis and it will depict below.
Appendix 7.2 shows the industry life rhythm for civil aircraft industry. This study considers the phase of civil aircraft industry life rhythm is in the terminal of shock-out and in the beginning of the adulthood because of this industry still maintains some characteristics in shake-out phase and derive new characteristics in the 4th phase.
Both shake-out and adulthood phase have some similar features, like the low and slow growing and high entry barrier. For illustration, boeing and Airbus suffered from the crisp deceasing figure of order at Duhai show in 2009 ( EASA, 2009 ) . On the other facet, Airbus and Boeing received authorities assistance from Europe and United States severally. It besides indicates that it is hard to last in this industry without authorities support. In other words, at least the cost of threshold resource and competency are rather high.
However, the state of affairs of this industry is besides carry throughing the some sole features of the two phases, viz. , in shake-out phase smaller participant in this industry were forced issue or acquired with the Boeing and Airbus resulted in left a close duopoly market for the two giants. Boeing merged McDonnell Douglas Corp is one illustration ( Boeing, 2010a ) . Meanwhile, the ferocious competition with challengers will go on due to the strong purchaser power resulted from more participants compete in this industry such as China, Brazil ( Goodrich, 2009 ) .

Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series Heading to Miller Motorsports Park
TOOELE VALLEY, UTAH — The Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series will be making its first Utah appearance at Miller Motorsports Park on June 26-27. This is a unique event that requires unique preparation, including the construction of an all-new short-course off-road track in the infield of the East Course of the main track.
The Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series is the evolution of the long-standing support of short-course racing by Forrest Lucas and Lucas Oil Products. Steeped in the Midwest tradition of short-course off-road racing infused with a West Coast influence, Lucas Oil Off Road Racing brings intense four-wheel door-to-door action to challenging, fan-friendly tracks.
The series includes 11 classes of vehicles, ranging from truck-bodied karts for drivers as young as eight years to ATVs, buggies and full-bodied trucks sporting as much as 800 hp. The action is frantic and ferocious, and the vehicles will have to deal with tabletops, rhythm sections, whoops and jumps in addition to each other in what is sure to be a major hit with Utah fans.
Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series Director Tony Vanillo recently participated in an interview in which he discussed how the event came to be and what fans can expect to see:
How did Miller Motorsports Park come to be considered?
"I was introduced to the management of Miller Motorsports Park for consideration of their venue. After a tour of the facilities and meeting with them, the grounds seemed perfect for a short-course off-road race while offering state-of-the-art facilities and a fantastic infrastructure. Miller is a phenomenal facility. The facility has everything. From the paddock to the grandstands to the VIP facilities, everything is first-class.
This is the newest and most unique venue to feature short-course off-road racing and we anticipate a wonderful experience for sponsors, competitors and spectators. From this meeting, a fantastic relationship has been developed among the staff at MMP, their General Manager, John Larson, and Lucas Oil. This relationship has also extended to the title sponsorship of the recent World Superbike race at MMP."
It looks like Miller Motorsports Park has a wide variety of racing on its schedule.
"MMP is truly a state-of-the-art, world-class road course that hosts national and international events including World Superbike, the American Le Mans Series and the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series among others. Between their major events along with the SCCA Trans-Am, World Challenge and Volkswagen Jetta TDI Cup, the NASA National Championships, their Mustang Challenge Series and club racing, there seems like there's something going on there all the time. Then there's the go-kart track and onsite driving and riding schools and an incredible vintage car museum with some of the rarest vehicles in the world. MMP really has something for everyone who loves racing. We are excited to be a part of it all."
Is Lucas building the course from the ground up in partnership with the track ownership?
"Everything built for this short-course race and the event itself in every sense of the word is a partnership. We are building the track jointly with our expertise and combining resources to complete a very exciting 1.1-mile, purpose-built short-course off-road track. The track will feature all of the signature jumps, tabletops and excitement that have become the signature of our short-course off-road racing series."
How many seats will there be on the course?
"There are eight grandstands at MMP, three of which we will have in use for our event. Primary seating for the short-course track will be located adjacent to the track with grassy areas and fence-line viewing areas that can accommodate an additional 5,000 people. We will also be utilizing their beautiful indoor and outdoor VIP and hospitality facilities that can accommodate an additional 1,000 spectators. Although this is our first event at MMP, the enthusiasm for the event has been outstanding and there is a lot of buzz about the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series coming to the Salt Lake City area for the first time."
Tickets for the the Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series event at Miller Motorsports Park are priced at $30/day or $50/weekend for adults, and $10/day or $15/weekend for kids aged 4-12. They are available on the track's website, at www.SmithTix.com or at the box offices of Miller Motorsports Park, EnergySolutions Arena or the Salt Lake Bees.
