A shared wall between two properties – what separates you from your neighbours!
A ground mineral mixed with water in to a mud and applied thinly with a trowel (what some mistakenly call a float). It covers walls and ceilings and produces a very smooth, flat surface but cracks with any movement and may not adhere easily.

A first paint coat designed to seal and adhere.
Horizontal frame members of a panelled door or window.

Prince Edward Island is the most wonderful of locations to spend your summer vacation. Summer visitors have been coming to this paradise in the gulf ever since the advent of readily accessible commercial travel. The coastline is perfect for the construction of beach homes and cottages and in most areas there is easy access to the 1000 or more miles of coastline. There are however a few places where the land rises sharply from the sea to form red cliffs. Along the ocean frontage on the Belfast Highland Greens Golf Course, the highest cliffs on the Island are found. As a golfer stands on the 7th green he is able to gaze across Orwell Bay from a height of 170 feet. The cliff system running along along the golf course was given the name "Megwasa" by the Miq Maq people which means "red cliffs". PEI is home to some of the most fabulous beaches, and visitors come by the thousands to play and splash in the surf on the North Shore and soak up the summer sun on the inviting sand. The sandy beaches of the island come in two distinct colours: the sand on the North Shore and extending around East Cape and towards Souris is lighter in color and in some places is white; the shores along the Northumberland Strait have reddish sand, much the colour of the soil of PEI.
Hills and Harbours - Starting just outside of Charlottetown and turning to the right after crossing the Hillsborough Bridge, you can follow the shore back to where you can re-join the Trans Canada Highway just past the Pownal Sports Centre. About 2 miles further down the road, the highway has a turn off to the left if you wanted to go to Montague or Souris. Stay in the right lane and you will continue on the way to the Wood Islands Ferry Terminal which is on your route. Along the way, watch for signs to the Lord Selkirk Park -- if you turn to the right you will find the park, historical exhibits, the Belfast recreation area with its pools and playgrounds, Belfast Highland Greens Golf Course, walking trails and a wonderful observation spot to watch the Great Blue Herons. Continue back to the highway, turn right and go 1/2 mile and turn right down to Point Prim where you will find the oldest lighthouse on the Island and the Chowder House with its art gallery and restaurant. Back to the highway and follow the coast road with its great views and it will take you all the way to Cape Bear and the lighthouse that is famous for having housed the Marconi station that received the distress call from the Titanic. Next is Murray Harbour and Murray River, small fishing villages with places to eat, get gas, visit a gift shop or have a round of golf. When leaving Murray River take the road towards Montague and just out of town, take the first road to the right. Follow the signs, do some exploring, stop at beaches or fishing wharfs as you make your way to Montague. Follow the signs and if you do get lost you can't go very far before you will see a sign directing you somewhere. Along this drive you will have passed by 27 of the beach houses and summer homes listed on this portal. By returning to the top of this page you will be able to navigate to many more properties found on our other rental portals..
Beach Houses and Summer Homes in this tourist area are: Alexander's Beach house, Ar Dachaidh Cottage By The Sea, Aspen House Cottage, Beachcomber's Hideaway, Bell Buoy Vacation Home, Bell Isle Beach House, Brudenell Executive Chalets, Chalet On The Lake, Corkin View Beach House, Day's End, DeRoma Cottages, Greene's Country Charm Summer Home, Herring Beach Homes, Homeport By The Sea, Lighthouse Chalet, Lower Montague Harbourview, MacNeill Cottage, Maplehurst Properties, Ocean Front Executive Style Home, Panmure View Beach House, Pinette Haven of Rest, Quiet Haven Summer Home, Seascape Haven Waterfront Home, Shessary Place Waterfront Home, Stonehedge By The Sea, Sunset By The Sea, and Sunset Cove Cottage.
Bays and Dunes � is located in the Northeast corner and features a scenic coastal drive. You can access this scenic drive by following Hiway 4 North out of Montague and when you see a sign directing you to Cardigan follow it. Once in Cardigan if you cross the causeway you want to stay to the right. Again just follow your nose and the signs and you will eventually join back up with the # 4 highway near Fortune. Along the way you will have passed what is known locally as "The Ark". This property is now a restaurant and Inn but when it was built by the Government of Canada it was touted as a building of the future with ultra efficient solar heat generation and indoor greenhouses. There is also a site at Abell' Cape where a visitor can find out about an old sundial which can be reached by taking a five minute hike into a forest clearing where you can read a tale of romance about The north shore is dotted with small fishing villages and has one of the finest tuna fishing ports at North Lake. It also is the home of the world renowned Links at Crowbush Cove golf course. The Elmira railway museum is a must see and while visiting take a hike along the scenic Confederation Trail that runs beside it.

Each year thousands of people come to PEI to take part in "Old Home Week" and its 10 days of harness racing at the "Charlottetown Driving Park". For complete information on PEI Bed and Breakfast & Inns and accommodations in the Charlotte�s Shore Tourism Region visit PEIsland.com.
Ship to Shore � is located West of Malpeque Bay and is home to Summerside, PEI�s second city and the Evangeline district which is home to PEI�s Acadian population. In Summerside the world famous College of Piping is located where students from around the world come to fine tune their accomplishments on the bagpipes. A visit to this area is not complete without visiting Le Village in Mont Carmel and the Mi�Kmaq Centre on Lennox Island.

Sunsets and Seascapes � is the most westerly section of PEI and is where the Atlantic Canada Wind Turbine test site is located at Kildare Capes.

In the U.S. it's called "soccer." To the rest of the world it's "football." No matter what you call it, if you've got a SNES, you should try out Tony Meola's Sidekicks Soccer.
Hands down (or maybe that should be heads down), Sidekicks is the coolest game of its kind to date. The graphics are as realistic as any sports game around, including the John Madden and NHL games. From the lifelike movements of the players to the highflying Bicycle Kicks, Sidekicks Soccer is the closest you can get to actually being on the field.
ProTips:
Get on one side of the penalty box and use either Button X or Y to loft the ball to the other side of the penalty box.
Take shots from outside of the penalty box. Use Button X to Loft the ball over the keeper's head.
Going for the World Cup
Sidekicks features 32 teams from cities and countries around the world. You can play alone against the computer, or you can challenge a friend to head- to-head competition.
Other cool options include a 14-game regular season and three tournaments at the City or World level. Fortunately, you can save your game's progress with passwords.
Sidekicks' best features are adjustable team formations and three selectable types of Direct Kicks.
The computer keeper only reacts to shots on goal, so have your player dribble right into the net without taking a shot. However, the keeper will catch on, and you'll only be able to score once using this fake.
The Pele of Soccer Games
Sidekicks Soccer totally blows away the competition. It has the best graphics and the closest ball play of any soccer game around. Sidekicks really kicks!
Download Tony Meola's Sidekick Soccer
Pentium II (or equivalent) 266MHz (500MHz recommended), RAM: 64MB (128MB recommended), DirectX v8.0a or later must be installed
Machine: SNES;
Manufacturer: Electro Brain; Sculptured Software
Do you have World Cup fever? The Super Bowl of Soccer is coming to the U.S. in '94, and Electro Brain is betting that Tony Meola's Sidekicks Soccer is just the ticket for soccer-hungry SNES players.
This super fast-paced, 8-meg simulation for one or two players was programmed by Sculptured Software, the company behind NCAA Basketball. Sidekicks features that same Mode 7 rotation, as well as exhibition, tournament, or league play for 96 different teams. It's also easy to learn, utilizing graphic icons for option selections and player ratings. Players are ranked in speed (running), power (kicking), and skill (overall ability) - the icons for speed, for example, are cheetahs, horses, and turtles. Power and skill categories have equally obvious graphics.
Sidekicks brings something new to a crowded field with its fluid scaling and rotation. But its game play is even more of a standout. The pace is frantic, even at Turtle speed - kind of an NHL Hockey on turf. And the constant rotation as teams' trade control of the ball makes it sometimes feel as if you're playing a first-perspective pinball game.
Sidekicks also uses the green-yellow-red light system from NCAA Basketball to encourage an active passing game full of strategic passes instead of long downfield kicks. When you're in possession, the team members in your immediate line of sight have small, colored circles above their heads. A green circle indicates a wide-open player. Yellow or red circles let you know a pass would be difficult to complete.
The wide diversity of scoring options adds a lot to Sidekicks. In addition to just headers or bicycle-kicks you can hook or slice your shot, loft it over a goalie's head, or tap it in with an open man in front of the net.
Defensive play, however, falls a little short. The computer has no offensive game play - its attack usually sputters and stalls. If you play a conservative defense, trying to stay with the ball-handler instead of slide-tackling, the computer won't get many shots. Sidekicks also lacks some fairly common options, such as instant replay and game-save features. Also, it wouldn't hurt to have some cinema screens mixed into the action.
But despite its shortcomings, Tony Meola's Sidekicks Soccer goes a long way toward capturing World Cup fever. Even if you don't spring for those $200 tickets, you might find yourself following the event on TV, joining the rest of the globe watching the world's favorite sport.
This game adds a new and different perspective to the usual home video soccer game, but the game can get very confusing at times. Yet, there are plenty of options to interest veteran video game sports fans.

Q: Update field with value according to occurence I have the following problem: I would like to update a Access table with a value. The value should be added if multiple conditions are true.

*

*If a value in column A exists more than once AND

*If a value in column B exists more than once AND

*If column C is not empty

I tried it with the following query, which almost works but seems to ignore the condition on column B. For example, there are three records. Those three have the same value in "a" but only two of them have the same value in "b". Still, the query writes "f" for all three of them.
UPDATE table1 SET a = "f"
WHERE a IN (SELECT a FROM table1 GROUP BY a, b HAVING COUNT(a) > 1)
AND b IN (SELECT b FROM table1 GROUP BY a, b HAVING COUNT(b) > 1) AND [c] <> " ";

It could be doable with VBA (Looping through everything) but I want to avoid that. And I really want to know why it does not work.
Thanks a lot!

A: I think your group by conditions are wrong.  Based on your description:
UPDATE table1
    SET a = "f"
WHERE a IN (SELECT a FROM table1 GROUP BY a HAVING COUNT(a) > 1) AND
      b IN (SELECT b FROM table1 GROUP BY b HAVING COUNT(b) > 1) AND
      c <> " ";

Survivors of heart attacks recommended exercise regularly to improve heart health, but the latest research found the existence of the negative side.
"More is not always better," said study researcher Paul Williams, a staff scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, Calif.
Williams track nearly 2.400 survivors of heart attacks from a long-term study of runners and walkers for about 10 years. In General, the sport much more reduced the risk of death due to a heart attack up to 65 percent, he said.
However, running more than 48 km a week or walking more than 74 km per week has the opposite effect, more than doubled risk of heart attack, as revealed in the study.
Throughout the decades of study, 526 people died, nearly ¾ of a heart attack and heart disease.
Because the study was limited to the people who survived a heart attack, Williams was not able to say whether the findings would apply to healthy adults who exercise intensively.
Survivors of heart attacks that excessive exercise including a little, with only 6% ran beyond the 48 km or run 74 km a week, in the study.
For most participants, exercising more but still with a certain limit reduce the risk of death due to heart attack dramatically, discovered by Williams.
Experts say that the results are not surprising.
The study points out, "you don't have a lot to work out to get much benefit," from a health point of view, said Dr. Carl Lavie, Medical Director of cardiac rehabilitation and prevention at the Cardiology Institute of the heart and blood vessels John Ochsner, New Orleans.
According to the Guide to physical activity for residents of the United States, 150 minutes a week of moderate-intensity exercise or 75 minutes of high-intensity exercise are advised.
Williams wasn't sure why people who work out at the highest level of risky died of a heart attack or whether the results would apply to activities other than walking or running.
The study found that the benefits of running the equivalent of a run. However, running two times longer than running to burn the calories in the same amount. The study was published online on August 12 in the Mayo Clinic Proceedings.
In the same issue, researchers describe the discovery of Spain 10 study published, observing the effects of exercise on the longevity of elite athletes.
The study involves more than 42.000 athletes, mostly men, who have participated in football, baseball, athletics, and cycling. Elite athletes live longer than the general population, according to the study. The findings suggested that the effects of exercise for health, especially to reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer, are not always limited to moderate doses.
The invention must not be contrary to other studies, said Lavie, author of the additional opinion articles in the study.
"At least a relief to know that the activity of the athletics, competing high, high-level Athletics does not seem to correlate with decreased chances of survival, but in fact with the benefit of survival," he said.
Moreover, Lavie says that exercise is done athletes often are not as extreme as marathon runners.
Same as suggested by the doctor of the heart, said Dr. James O'Keefe, author of another opinion articles and additional cardiologist at the mid-America Heart Institute of St. Luke's in Kansas City, MO. "sport is the best thing you can do to your health, "he said, if it is done not to overdo it.
"There is good when just sitting, but you could just do it is excessive," he said.
According to Keefe, if you exercise especially for health benefits, 2.5-5 hours a week including heavy sports a lot. Keefe and his colleagues also stated that 1 or 2 days of rest per week may also be effective.

Switch on for New Hospitals' Webcams
Hospital-watchers all over the world are being offered the chance to keep a virtual eye on the construction of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde's new Victoria and Stobhill Hospitals, as webcams are switched on at the respective building sites.
Cutting-edge technology has allowed a tiny camera to be mounted on each construction site, giving the chance to monitor the progress of both £100 million state-of-the art new hospitals.
Anyone who has access to the internet can keep a close eye on the progress of the hospitals via their dedicated webpages.
Director of Facilities Alex McIntyre says it's a practical innovation: "Throughout the design and building process for both new hospitals we're making the best possible use of new technology, and the webcam is just another example of that.
"Being able to monitor their progress from the comfort of your own home is a great development.
"These hospitals are in the heart of the community so it's only right that the building process is open and transparent as it can possibly be."
The webcam forms part of a special homepage of the NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde website devoted to the hospitals –www.nhsggc.org.uk/newvictoriahospital
www.nhsggc.org.uk/newstobhillhospital
As well as the webcam and other pictures, the site provides a timetable of how work is progressing, an FAQ on the new hospitals, information on transport plans, the chance to order a free DVD on the new hospitals, and the chance to buy a book of their histories.
They will be two of the largest hospitals in Scotland and each are expected to treat approximately 400,000 patients each year.
When the Victoria is completed by 2009, it will feature a wide range of specialities and will deliver chemotherapy and renal dialysis on the South Side for the first time.
It is being built on a site directly across the road from the existing hospital, and will have a secure underground car park and cover three floors, taking up more than 30,000 square metres of space.
The new Stobhill, due to open in 2009, will cover four floors and an area the size of 30,000 square metres.
In addition to the existing outpatient clinics, day surgery and diagnostic services, the new Stobhill Hospital will also provide a number of specialist health services such as cardiology, renal dialysis and gynaecology.
It will also have 12 short stay surgical beds, to enable clinicians to extend the range of hospital procedures offered within the new hospital.
This will mean that more than 2000 patients per year, who would otherwise have had to travel to other hospitals in the city, will now be able to have their treatment at the new Stobhill.
Mr McIntyre added: "The new hospitals are going to be the most modern and well-equipped anywhere in Scotland, and making use of the webcam technology is another example of that.
"I hope that local people and even those who live on the other side of the world will keep up to date with their progress."
Both new hospitals are at the heart of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde's ambitious plans to modernise healthcare facilities across the city.
They represent a significant investment in NHS services and will also provide a major boost to the local economies with hundreds of new construction jobs created during the build period.


A friend wants me to make him an offer on a Frabil hideout. It's two years old with the arctic material.
Can anyone tell me how much you would offer?
I really have no idea what it's worth.
Ive never seen the hieout. How big is it, tub or suitcase? What shape is it in?
The hideout looks like a decent rig though on 72"x72" I find it a tad small for 3 people.
For a couple bucks more you can have a nice flip over from Frabill which is much better. I'm going flip next year, just can't afford it this year My Farbill Venture is only a year old, and works great so far but I want one for the "the run and gun days".

Vincent Littlehat Challenges Digitalization on New Vocal Single and Music Video 'Who Are You'
The Second Single To Be Taken From Her Upcoming Debut EP 'Another Land Below' Due in 2023
Following the critically acclaimed release of her stunning vocal single The Head of Knights back in October, Polish musician, performer, writer and model Vincent Littlehat now returns to the fore with the announcement of her eagerly anticipated follow up single Who Are You.
Created together with composer / producer Robot Koch and released via Vincent's eponymous imprint Littlehat Recordings, the record marks the second official single to be taken from her upcoming debut EP Another Land Below, which looks set to see its official release in early 2023.
Speaking about the concept behind new single, Vincent commented:
"'Who Are You' is a commentary on how digitalization is grabbing our attention and gradually absorbing our real lives. Costly side effects are often hiding positive benefits. This begs questioning. How does one balance this transition, exist in a duality, instead of trading a big amount of one's In Real Life experiences for simulacra? To what extent is trading physical alienation for limitless online connectivity worth it?"
The music video for Who Are You, which was created alongside 3D animator Emil Karaś and Art Director Mehran Djojan, explores the notion of dreams being realized in real life (IRL) and finding fresh perspectives on circumstances. Karaś worked for many months to accurately craft and incorporate an authentic dance performance, which he accomplished after most of the film footage was lost due to an accident on set. The misfortune of losing the video material inspired a reflection on trading IRL experiences for these in the digital space after re-creating the lost footage. The artwork instantly gained a more exciting look, but the complexity of the real and organic movement of the dancers stays only in the memory of these who seen the performance on the set.
A third reality testing tool made into an audio-visual journey, the music video see Vincent reflect on the dramatic conflict between hero and villain, watching their fight turn into a choreographed dance within a universe into which she has invited them. The choreography – conceived by Sebastian Abarbanell – is performed by two dancers: Louis Seriot and Lukas Ziegele.
All three main characters in the video transmute between their IRL form and animated interpretation. They lose and recover their identity, transferring their focus between real and fantasy. Each realm has positive potentials and unique risks unless they are integrated with care.
On the music video, Vincent expands:
"Animating the blending of reality and fantasy symbolically represents different states of mind we imagine. Seeing one's actions from this new perspective tempers the intensity of identifying with one's role with that of their adversary in this spectacular interplay. One can adopt an immersed point of view, which has a creative function. While moving to an observation point, one is taking a reflective, inactive stand, collecting information hidden in blind spots.The first verse questions our identities, the roles in which we fit, because we are intelligent and highly adaptive beings. Perhaps we shed obsolete identities as we become wiser or find courage to adopt a new environment and shape it for us. Alternatively, we can slot into an actualized environment, which would benefit from our support and creative strength.
Often likened to artists including CocoRosie, Soko and Lily Allen, Vincent Littlehat first began her musical exploration in London, UK, collaborating with Tatsujiro 'Pop' Oto (The Pop Group, The Prodigy), cellists Chloe Treacher (The Irrepressibles) and Martin Radford (Patrick Wolf) on the single Moondust and Golden Locks. Now living in Berlin, she has also recently collaborated with producer Enda Gallery on her latest single Ask Yourself Why and Berlin-based producer Chris Zippel (Pet Shop Boys, Robbie Williams).
Currently, Vincent is working with Robot Koch, Kris Steininger (Parcels, Melody Gardot, Jules Buckley) and Zino Mikorey (Parcels, Nils Frahm, Ry X, Mouse on Mars) on a series of new songs, which will be drip released over the next six months. From their shared apartment, Vincent has also maintained a consistent creative collaboration with roommate and photographer and video director, Mehran Djojan.
Vincent Littlehat – Who Are You is out now via Littlehat Recordings.
About Vincent Littlehat
Vincent Littlehat is an eclectic creative; a musician, performer, writer and model. She was born in Poland and is currently living in Berlin, but has travelled and worked previously in London and Naples. Having studied the subject in university, Vincent's interest in psychology has played a role in shaping her creative explorations. With thought-provoking lyrics, Vincent invites listeners to embark on a journey outside of themselves, to shift their perspective and return with a new sense of themselves. She enjoys collaborating with diverse artists and experimenting with different styles of music, with every new release evoking new feelings. Accompanied by fantastical graphics, every experience is vividly immersive.

Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu 2 – 08
After a taste of Kyoto-style rakugo (which has a lot more props than Tokyo style…not sure I like it) courtesy of Mangetsu, who is trying to make a comeback after ten years out of the game, We see a frail and withered Yakumo showing his grandson one of Sukeroku's albums.
Higuchi and Matsuda then come in to show Yakumo the veritable bonanza of recordings and memorabilia the professor has collected over the years. Higuchi leaves it up to Yakumo whether the recordings and such were ever to be released to the public, or destroyed. Yakky says he'll think about it.
In a really, really lovely scene, we see the happy couple of Yotaro and Konatsu relaxing on a warm night, and Konatsu rests her head on Yotaro's broad back and asks him to perform some rakugo, and is no doubt soothed by the vibration of Yotaro's voice as he does so. It's personal rakugo; not for a crowd, but for someone close.
Yotaro can't get far in his story before the couple notices Yakumo walking onto the nearby bridge; he feigns a desire to get out and about and a bout of sickness, but Konatsu knows what he's up to: he was trying to off himself, something she won't allow until he "atones."
Or at least, that's how she chooses to label her love for the man who brought her in when she lost both her parents and raised her into the fine woman she is. Yakumo concedes that fate may not be ready to let him die.
Yakumo visits Kido Isao, an old friend and who owes him a "debt that can't be paid", knows how to keep quiet, and longs to hear Yakumo perform again. Then, one night, after seeing a play with Matsuda, Yakumo finds himself the victim of his loyal servant and family's machinations.
To wit: he's being forced into a performance before a small, select audience of old friends, colleagues, and patrons. When he threatens to leave, the lady of the Yanashima Inn "insists" by hilariously shoving him onto the stage.
But before Yakumo has to perform, he yields that stage to his "dunce" of a student, who performs "Shibahama" to his master's shock. When asked how he learned it, Yotaro confesses to having watched the film, though doesn't go so far as to hear the truth of what happened at that inn so many years ago.
As for his "Shibahama", Sokuroku's was, in my opinion, far superior. But to Yotaro's credit, he uses his tendency to weep easily well here.
When it's finally Yakumo's turn, he introduces himself with an air of "whelp, I guess I can't rest easy yet, so despite my dry tongue here goes"…only to be rudely interrupted by a police raid that has come to arrest Kido Isao. Have those coppers no decency?!
One also wonders if, like when his suicide was thwarted by the sudden appearance of Yotaro and Konatsu, if there's something to the fact that he was so harshly silenced just when he was about to do rakugo again.

Barakamon – 04
When I decided to paint beige-colored racing stripes on 1991 Honda Accord, the most difficult step in the process wasn't the measuring, the marking of guide points with non-permanent marker, or making sure the masking was tight. No, the toughest part was making that very first mark with the paint upon the (sorta) pristine blank surface. There was no going back from that moment, so I figured I'd best not screw up.
Once that first mark was made, I felt a lot more confident, and sure enough the stripes were turned out true and crisp. Seishuu faces similar apprehension, only it's quite a bit more pronounced, because the boat he's painting belongs to an ill-tempered gangster (and Miwa's pops), and for the entire process he is distracted by a gaggle of little kids darting around like gnats, upsetting the calm such a job normally requires.
Then there's the fact that he shouldn't be doing odd calligraphy jobs now that he's been entered in the upcoming Naruka Institute Calligraphy Exhibition. Exhibiting the humility he's gained since moving to the island, he doesn't promise to claim to Grand Prize, as he's still "in the darkness," but he's certain he'll someday "find the light," lines that are both cool and corny. I don't buy, however, that someone his age has never operated a rotary phone!
If you can successfully paint a five-kanji name on the boat of a prickly gangster-geezer under the constant distraction urchins constantly up in your business, well…you're not completely worthless as a human. Intimidated by the vast stretch of pure, empty white, Seishuu ceases up, until Naru plants a tiny black hand on that white. Then another, then the others join in.
It's as if whatever spell was keeping Seishu from touching brush to boat was lifted. From there, Seishuu dives in going with a wild, splattery style to cover up the prints, and ending up with something both he and Yamamura can be satisfied with. But the true challenge lies ahead with his exhibition work, where he won't have the benefit of Naru making the first mark for him.

Q: Tornado file uploads - high memory usage We have a tornado application running behind nginx, supporting user file uploads (I just use self.request.files to access the uploaded files). The maximum file size is 10MB and this is set in the nginx config, so the python process should never see files larger than that.
I've noticed that every time a user uploads a file, the memory goes up by a little. But I can't figure out a pattern there. I've tried to figure out if there are any memory leaks (using pympler and objgraph) but couldn't find anything particularly suspicious. They only show me that the top memory consuming objects are strings and dicts, with combined object sizes not more than 7-8MB. If the uploaded file itself would still have a reference after the request completed, then I would also expect the bytes type to be reported by pympler and/or objgraph, which I don't.
I wonder how to best deal with this situation. Is this another case of the "high water" behavior? Would switching to stream_request_body yield better results? Or is it easier to simply restart the process once it hits a certain threshold?


What are also the Purchasing College grants for college kids?

Where Is doing Federal loans Originate from?
The numerous sole fontaine needed for college grants could possibly be administration, the state of hawaii federal government, postsecondary finance companies, and private entities.
The governing administration will likely be the largest federal loans services in the nation. Samples of college grants for faculty that your choice of state has are borrowing options, funds, as well work-study profits. Anybody that would like to go for legal households have to submit the entire Free Loan application with respect to Federal government Junior Manual (Federal loan application).
Institutional school funding is made of guideline top of your head educational institutions gives regularly in their college. Colleges for the most part have scholarship grants, brings, additionally work-study regimens. Visit the college money police for the colleges you desire taking care of figure out what sorts of permit can be found to business.
Typically by online loans then free college funding, the private funding for school is obtained from corps, spiritual any other companies, interpersonal merchants, qualified professional fix organizations, along with. To discover more on the sorts of financing buy reserved channels, communication educational funding bureaus, a very good classes physical therapist and even a woman inside a consumer archives or possibly schools. You will discover quite a few sites, that supply start looking hardware that can help you discover prospective scholarships and grants.
There can be 2 number one forms school funding as a student that include renders, scholarships or grants, services, not to mention work-study capital.
Pell Grants– Pell offers are almost always given at undergraduate younger generation who possess less than warranted a major bachelor's quantity or maybe management specifications. Shed weight make it easier to receive hinges upon your very own spending be needing, a school's cost of presence, or other facts.
Federal Supplemental Useful Home business Government grants (FSEOG)– FSEOG unquestionably are federal government grants as undergrad classmates that have high capital will need. FSEOG can be recommended because funding places of work on portion academics.
Teacher A degree Expertise for College and better Exercising (Get trained) Grants– Educate you on gives can aid you to pay out for company if you're planning in becoming a pro and as well coach located in high-need areas to low-income topics. So that you receive one Advise award, you must arrange to showing for just about any numerous period.

Like renders, scholarships undertake and don't transaction. May possibly simply sold by certain firms and private communities and could be approved according to a quantity indicators, including informative entire performance, exercise option, sterling affiliation, as well as the ethnic background, to name a few. To become obtain scholarship and grant, often you will need to construct another paper.
Offered courtesy of each of the lawmakers and private creations, lending are actually bankroll in which you take credit to wait greater. You want to requite your actual loan that have interest charge. Borrowing supply younger generation and even houses containing instant access to be sources which will help shield the money necessary for collage.
Subsidized Loans– Subsidized college are available for users may possibly proved bankruptcy have need of. Is available a little bit higher language as compared unsubsidized student loan, capsicum is derived from United states Part of your practice can pay this interest fees while you're doing this with higher education healthy and balanced . another six month grace years at the time you college graduate.
Unsubsidized Loans– Unsubsidized lending are available to those regardless of budgeting need to get. Historians are responsible for refunding fascination in nearly all durations.
PLUS Loans – PLUS loan options have proven to be finance built to student in addition specialist teenagers and oldsters involved with relying undergraduate college students to help have enough money for costs rather than protected by a few other financial assistance versions.
Perkins Loans– Perkins borrowing may very well be school-based school loans to have undergraduate combined with former pupils as well as outstanding fund use.
Private debt actually are granted and also by independent car loan companies and can even help close the visible difference between your price a instruction properly as the time period of money for college you will have of a us government.

Typically the college offices located on schools, for example the teenager hospital, entire career residence, running side branch, and after that residence hallways, retain work-study kids. Having said that, their position readily in addition the spend presented with fluctuate highly.
The school funding the user gets may well make a positive change on the college or university your present together with the level financial obligations may perhaps have searching for commencement. It is crucial to being resourceful as well as , peek into your whole collection of alternatives reveal enhance level of financial assistance that you are able to. The previous you begin browsing your plan of action by on the web, far better. Since you now find out more information on the sort of financing open, start by looking towards the actual federal loans chances, so you're able to make the most the entire readily available info lending your own personal schooling.


Mr. Matteo was the founder and president of NanoTek, LLC, where he lead the development of microfluidic instruments for rapid synthesis of radiolabeled compounds for function medical imaging. NanoTek, acquired by Advion BioSciences, Inc., is the scientific leader in microfluidics systems for chemistry and biochemistry applications and produces instruments for microfluidic synthesis of tracers or radiolabeled imaging agents used for diagnostic testing, primarily for cancer. Their instruments use micro-scale channels and micro reactors to rapidly optimize and produce imaging tracers. Until recently, Mr. Matteo served as Advion's chief technology officer, but left to pursue development of new instrument technologies as an inventor and entrepreneur once again.
Manipulating solutions at the micro or nano scale brings with it the benefit of enhanced chemical properties. However, to achieve these properties, scientists must manipulate very small volumes at very high pressure. Maintaining pressures as high as 1000 psi (pounds per square inch) requires that the prototype parts have extremely accurate fit and finish to create tight seals. "I've been very impressed with the accuracy of the milling. The seals I can create using the MDX-540 are tight enough for us to actually use the prototype to run the experiment," said Matteo.
Since these demanding applications require that the devices endure organic solvents, high temperatures and high pressure, Matteo seeks a balance of material properties in the materials he mills. To accelerate the prototype-to-production process, Matteo frequently mills a single prototype from several different materials. "I've made the same part with polysulphone, Teflon and PEEK - tested at temperature, under vacuum and using organic solvents. Then we use the part in our experiments to see which one performs best. This allows us to refine our own process pretty rapidly," said Matteo.
Materials that have the required strength can withstand high temperatures, are chemically inert and are not inexpensive in general that is why Matteo appreciates being able to minimize material waste when milling. He has built a fixture for the MDX-540 that allows him to use a block of material that is only 0.500" longer than the part he's milling and 0.050" wider and thicker. To speed setup and reduce waste, Matteo uses the MDX's Handy Panel and Virtual Panel to guide the machine and locate the center origin.
Matteo also uses the MDX-540 bench top mill to produce multipart molds, laying out the design in SolidWorks for a single assembly and then manufacturing the entire mold in one production run. Matteo values the MDX-540's reliability and excellent performance, and often maximizes his work schedule by running the machine overnight or on the weekend.
"The accuracy has been critical to our success," said Matteo. "The machine's precision is incredible. I can create a slip-fit or a press-fit without hesitation." The parts Matteo mills are generally square or rectangular shapes ranging from two inches to six inches in length. Matteo uses Roland's MODELA software to program his complex designs into the MDX-540, many of which require drill holes in the range of 0.020" in diameter to accommodate glass capillaries of still smaller diameters.

Q: What does $P(A)\cdot P(B)$ mean for non independent events? When two events $A$ and $B$ are independent, $P(A)\cdot P(B)$ equals the probability of both events occurring together.
$$P(A|B) = \frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}.$$
If $A$ and $B$ are not independent,  $P(A\cap B)$ is either greater than or less than $P(A)\cdot P(B)$.

*

*I want to understand the intuitive meaning of $P(A)\cdot P(B)$ for non independent event. What does it signify?

*Also, what is intuition behind
If $P(A|B) > P(A)$, then $P(B|A) > P(B)$.
I understand it is direct consequence of $P(A\cap B) > P(A)\cdot P(B)$, but it is not very intuitive to me.

A: When $A,B$ are not independent, and if there is no more information, there's no natural interpretation of $P(A){\,\cdot\,}P(B)$.

The condition $P(A|B) > P(A)$ means $A$ is more likely to have occurred if it's given that $B$ has occurred, than if there is no information as to whether or not $B$ has occurred.

Equivalently, $A$ is more likely to have occurred if it's given that $B$ has occurred, than if it's given that $B$ did not occur (i.e., $B'$ occurred, where $B'$ is the complement of $B$).

The interpretation for $P(B|A) > P(B)$ is analogous.

As regards the question as to why $P(A|B) > P(A)$ implies $P(B|A) > P(B)$ . . .

Assume $P(A),P(B) > 0$.
\begin{align*}
\text{Then}\;\;&P(A|B) > P(A)\\[4pt]
\implies\;&\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)} > P(A)\\[4pt]
\implies\;&P(A\cap B) > P(A)P(B)\\[4pt]
\implies\;&\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)} > P(B)\\[4pt]
\implies\;&P(B|A) > P(B)\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
As regards the intuition . . .

Assume $P(A),P(B) > 0$.

Suppose we have $P(A|B) > P(A)$.

Thus, when $B$ happens, $A$ tends to happen more than when $B$ doesn't happen.

So if $A$ happens, it suggests that $B$ might have been "responsible", hence it's more likely that $B$ occurred than $B'\;(\text{not}\,B)$.

Thus, the occurrence of $A$ increases the likelihood of the occurrence of $B$.

Which means $P(B|A) > P(B)$.

A: For events $A,B$, the correlation is measured by $$\mathsf{Corr}(A,B)=\dfrac{ \mathsf P(A\cap B)-\mathsf P(A)\cdotp \mathsf P(B)}{\sqrt{\mathsf P(A)\cdotp\mathsf P(B)\cdotp(1-\mathsf P(A))\cdotp(1-\mathsf P(B))}}$$
Similarly the covariance is measured as: $$\mathsf{Cov}(A,B)= \mathsf P(A\cap B)-\mathsf P(A)\cdotp \mathsf P(B)$$
You might extract an interpretation for $\mathsf P(A)\cdotp\mathsf P(B)$ from that.
$\mathsf P(A\mid B)>\mathsf P(A)$ intuitively means that outcomes of $A$ are overrepresented among event $B$ in comparison to their proportion of the whole outcome space -- we say there is a positive correlation between the events.   Then it should feel right that outcomes of $B$ are likewise overrepressented among event $A$.   Indeed, if they were underrepresented, there would be a negative correlation, but it would be a contradiction for the correlation to be both positive and negative.
Ipso facto, $\mathsf P(A\mid B)>\mathsf P(A)\iff \mathsf P(B\mid A)>\mathsf P(B)$ (preassuming $A,B$ both have positive probability mass).

A: Consider the following events $M$={pass midterm exam}, $F$={pass final exam} and the probabilities:
$$P(M)=0.8, P(F)=0.7,P(M\cap F)=0.6.$$
Then:
$$P(M|F)=\frac{P(M\cap F)}{P(F)}=\frac{0.6}{0.7}=\frac67>0.8=P(M); \\
P(F|M)=\frac{P(F\cap M)}{P(M)}=\frac{0.6}{0.8}=\frac34>0.7=P(F).$$
Hence, passing one exam increases the probability of passing the other exam, which is a consequence of a positive correlation.

The Tibetan restaurant currently has a second-floor shop on 74th Street.

JACKSON HEIGHTS — A famed Tibetan restaurant is planning to open a second location on Northern Boulevard, an owner said.
Phayul, the tiny second-floor eatery on 74th Street and 37th Road, will open a site in the former Ru-Yi Northern Restaurant in a few weeks, according to chef Chime Tendha.
The menu will be "basically the same, with a little extra," he said.
Phayul specializes in Himalayan cuisine, serving spicy mung-bean jelly strips called laphing, a blood sausage called gyuma ngoe ma, butter tea, momos and more.
Tendha's wife, Dawa Lhamo, opened the restaurant five years ago. It became renowned for its tiny size as much as its authentic Tibetan cuisine — which is the main reason they're expanding to a second shop, Tendha said.
The second Phayul location will be on Northern Boulevard. (DNAinfo/Katie Honan)
"This is very tiny, not enough tables," he said of his current restaurant, which is located next to a beauty shop.
He'll be the head chef at the new location, with Phayul's current kitchen staff staying on 74th Street, he said.

Our choice, Best budget
Love & Green
 (500 ml)
With a minimalist composition, this 2-in-1 body and hair shampoo offers a gel texture that is very pleasant to use and is guaranteed fragrance-free, to preserve your baby's natural smell.
£ 15.67 on Amazon
Price search in progress… please wait
Presented in a large 500ml bottle, Love and Green had already stood out in our search for the best gel shampoo. This 2-in-1 product has a lot going for it: a gel texture that is easy to apply and guarantees the longevity of the shampoo, a bottle equipped with a pump that is easy to handle with one hand, and a composition based on aloe vera that is virtually flawless. In our tests, all these advantages were confirmed and convinced us of its almost unbeatable price/quality ratio.
It's best to check the composition of baby shampoos to avoid irritants and endocrine disruptors.
A 2-in-1 formula allows you to wash both hair and body.
Some shampoos are more liquid and will lather up more than others.
A pump format is much easier to handle.
Small or large format, the main thing is to find what suits your needs.
Best mid-range
Eco by Naty
 (200 ml)
The brand's flagship product, this shampoo highlights its organic and ecological footprint, while offering a composition that respects sensitive scalps and skin.
This small 200 ml bottle hides a lot of potential: a composition based on coconut oil and aloe barbadensis leaves for a treatment, particularly adapted to sensitive skin, a subtle smell of lemongrass and a semi-thick texture very pleasant to use. The brand claims a formulation based on 99.4% natural ingredients and 12% organically grown ingredients, but also a packaging made of biosourced plastic. During our tests, we were totally convinced by its small format with a practical cap, as it is easy to take everywhere while remaining waterproof.
Best high-end
Burt's Bees Baby (235 ml)
In addition to being formulated with 98.9% natural ingredients and suitable for sensitive skin, this 2-in-1 shampoo has an unmistakable honey scent that will appeal to fans of sweet fragrances.
Presented in a 235 ml bottle with a practical opening cap, this shampoo also acts as a body wash and is suitable for the whole family. During our tester's bath, we noticed that its liquid texture makes it rather easy to handle, that it lathers quickly and doesn't show any difficulties when rinsing. In addition to its pleasant use, it also stood out from other shampoos because of its strong honey smell, which lingers on the hair after washing. You either like it or you don't, but it has to be said that the vast majority of users are won over.
High-end alternative
Mixa Bébé Bio
 (250 ml)
Hypoallergenic and based on mostly natural ingredients, this 2-in-1 shampoo sold in a pump bottle is an interesting alternative because of its light and delicate fragrance.
Despite the popularity of the Mixa brand among the general public, we were surprised to find that many of its products had a lot to do in terms of composition. The exception to the rule is this shampoo, from the Organic range, which stands out because its composition is mainly based on natural ingredients, which led us to include it as an alternative in our selection. Our tests showed that its pump format is very practical to use, despite its slightly too liquid texture. Above all, we were impressed by its delicate scent, with a very natural effect.

Mama Bear (3x300ml) (£17.84 upon publication): an odourless alternative. From the brand marketed by the giant Amazon, this 2-in-1 hair and body shampoo pleasantly surprised us on use. Its gel texture is thick enough to use only a small amount of product, its composition is not very debatable and its pump format is, once again, very practical to handle. We were especially surprised (and even confused) by the total absence of fragrance, which will please parents who are addicted to their baby's natural smell.

How to choose your baby shampoo?
When we become parents, we also turn into the target of advertisers. In fact, many of the latter are on a mission to sell us anything and everything with their myriad marketing strategies.
Even so, we only want the best of the best for our baby, so before choosing such a product, we need to pay a lot of attention.
The different tested shampoos. | Source: Selectos
Here is a list of criteria to consider before purchasing:
The composition: even if the regulations in force are increasingly restrictive for brands, some still have a great deal of work to do. Among the chemical components to which we must pay the most attention, we can mention Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLS), for its irritating power, but also parabens and phthalates, potentially carcinogenic endocrine disruptors. Moreover, we advise you to avoid them as much as possible in classic shampoos (for adults) too.
The packaging: from the small format adapted to hair with specific needs to the family packaging used for two or more children, the main thing is to find what really corresponds to your needs. Besides that, the product can be found either in a tube, a bottle or a pump. Everyone has their own preferences, although we recommend the pump for ease of use with a toddler, as it can be handled with one hand.
A pump format is much easier to handle. | Source: Selectos
The fragrance: if there is one truth that everyone agrees on, it is that babies naturally smell good. However, many parents like a light fragrance, as long as it is discreet. Be careful with synthetic fragrances, however, as they unnecessarily add a whole range of potentially irritating or allergenic agents to the original composition. It is better to use natural fragrances, so as not to alter their skin too much.
The "Tear Free" label: to keep bathing a pleasure, it is essential to find a gentle product that does not irritate the eyes. But beware of this statement! To be sure of its truthfulness, it is once again best to look at the list of ingredients. Glycols are considered the most potentially irritating. In case of doubt, it is once again best to turn to products with natural ingredients.
Texture and foaming power may vary. | Source: Selectos
The type of product: it should be noted that most brands offer 2-in-1 products, suitable for both body and hair washing. If your baby does not have a specific scalp condition (such as cradle cap), these products will be perfectly suitable and will have the advantage of clearing up the clutter in your bathroom. Otherwise, it is better to use a special shampoo.
