I remember the fear I had going in to a running shop for the first time. Suffering from imposters syndrome I asked sheepishly what shoes they'd recommend for a marathon runner. It was October 2015, six months before I would line up for my first ever marathon and I needed some shoes to match the occasion.
Up until then I had worn a pair of basic ASICS trainers that I'd played badminton for a few years in and run about 40 miles. They were battered and bruised at the start of my first ever half marathon and by the end of that race they were ripped to shreds, I had literally incredible hulked my way through them. My big toe and little toe had burrowed through to freedom like Andy Dufresne in the Shawshank Redemption.
I knew I needed a real pair of running shoes so I went down to my nearest running shop and they threw me on the treadmill and watched me run. Within a few minutes they had me in a pair of shoes that I would run every subsequent road race in.
The Brooks Glycerin became my faithful steed. When I first brought them they were in their 13th incarnation and are now into their 16th which I will review when I get my hands on them as I am still running in the 15th model. I've gone through five pairs, run 13 marathons and clocked up 2,000+ miles.
Are they perfect? No. Are they brilliant? Oh, yes.
So lets get down to the nitty, gritty.
The Gylcerin's are all about the comfort. It is cushioned to the max so it is a great shoe for anyone looking to get started in long distance running as they reduce the impact the increase mileage will cause on your muscles and joints. Everything from the upper made of a breathable, thin yet stretchy mesh to the heel and tongue being made of a plush soft material is aimed at offering the most amount of cushioning. I wouldn't put it in the same category as the pillow like shoes that are the Hoka One Ones but in my eyes they are a perfect balance between comfort and responsiveness especially for someone of my size.
One of my major gripes, and it is a big'un, is the fit. I wear a size 11.5 and with wide feet I really struggle with how my feet sit in this shoe. It is perfect for any distance shorter than a half marathon but if I'm lacing my shoes up for anything longer I have to use my secret weapon: gel pads. A product typically used for high heels but they are the cure for the rubbing and blistering I can get on the inside part of my foot during a race.
A big problem I had of the 14 model was that it wore out quickly, with in a few weeks they started showing signs of wear, particularly on the heel. That shoe only lasted a few months as the heel wore away and a sharp bit of plastic protruded out making running incredibly uncomfortable. This has been sorted out in the 15 with a stronger more durable sole and improved materials throughout. I've clocked up around 150-200 miles in them and they still feel brand new despite the Game of Thrones esque weather they've experienced in the UK. In the photo below you can see how they've changed with my running form while still maintaining their durability and comfort.
Brooks offer (on their website) a 30 day trial run and I really recommend trying this out. You can use them for whatever runs you have lined up and if you aren't happy with them just pop them back to them and they'll offer you a refund. I was sceptical about the terms of return so got in touch and they replied saying I would be surprise with how some of them look and smell but they still offer the refund. This is a welcomed gesture as they are not cheap shoes (RRP £135) so at least you can put some serious mileage in before being tied to them long term.
A comfort filled, great looking, mile munching shoe that has allowed me to become the runner I am today. Thanks Brooks.

Will the cleaning shrink my carpet?
Will all the spot come out?
How long will Teflon or 3M Scotchgard last?
Should a person with asthma have a carpet in their home?
Can you remove pet odor from my carpet?
My carpet has slight discoloration, can you correct that?
What is the best way to keep your carpet (rug or upholstery) clean soft and smelling great?
The chance of shrinkage is minimal, unless there are open seams. Our operators are trained to use the utmost care when cleaning your carpet.
We recommend that you keep traffic off the carpet for at least 2 hours. If you must walk on the carpet wear rubber soled shoes or socks. Walking on freshly cleaned carpet with bare feet may leave oil spots.
Normal drying time is from 6 to 24 hours. It depends on humidity, air movement, and the temperature in the room. Do not be alarmed if it takes longer especially when Teflon or Scotchgard is applied.
Usually anywhere from 6 to 8 hours. It is recommended to let it dry overnight before using.
We will treat all of the spotted areas with the most professional methods known. However, we cannot guarantee there removal. Many agents affect carpet dyes and spot set in if not blotted up immediately.
Teflon or Scotchgard is an important protection for keeping carpets clean. It will wear off as the carpet wears and will eventually need reapplied. Areas of your carpet that have heavy traffic may need an application every time your carpets are cleaned. Other areas may need it every other time.
Major carpet manufacturers recommend every 6 to 18 months depending on the amount of traffic in the house. Rooms that you used most often, such as family rooms and dining rooms probably should be cleaned every 6 months. Rooms used less frequently may be cleaned every 12 to 18 months. You are the best judge. When you start seeing soil you should have it cleaned.
Research has show that having a clean carpet at home will actually benefit people with asthma as the dust and allergen are accumulated in the carpet fibers, so the dust does not float freely in the room air. It is important to note that the carpet must be kept clean (vacuum + steam cleaning on a regular basis) and that the person with the asthma should not be around when the carpet is cleaned. It is recommended that you use a high quality vacuum with a HEPA filter ("high efficiency particulate air"), to assure all dust and dirt is sucked out of the carpet and air. However, please consult your family doctor as he will know your specific health needs.
Steam cleaning is the recommended cleaning method by the industry leaders (Shaw industries, and the I.I.C.R.C). High pressure steam is sprayed on the carpet fibers and then it is sucked up by a special �water vacuum�. This method assures a deep effective clean. Although you can rent steam cleaner machines for DIY, this is not recommended, as a professional cleaning company will have a truck mounted steam cleaner � more powerful and effective than any rental machine.
Yes. In cases that the contamination is limited only the face yarn of the carpet then the cleaning itself may effectively remove the odor. In more severe cases a urine neutralizer may be applied. In the most severe cases, replacement of the carpet padding, treatment of the under-side of the carpet and the sub-floor may be required.
The exact answer depends on carpet type, soil amount and type of cleaning. In general it can be said that we are able to clean approximately 400 square feet per hour. But each case is slightly different. The specifics are important to answer this accurately.
Yes. We do this with no extra charge (unlike most companies that charge extra). For liability reasons, we do not move antique furniture, entertainment systems, pianos, or other valuable belongings.
No. In fact, many of the major carpet manufacturers recommend a professional cleaning at least once every 6-8 months. The buildup of dirt and soil in your carpet fibers, in combination with foot traffic, creates an abrasion that breaks down your carpet's fibers. The higher the traffic in a given area, the more often the carpet will need cleaning.
Yes. In most cases of color loss in a carpet, it may be able to be spot dyed, and fixed. In more serious discoloration situations we can repair the carpet by replacing the area of discolored carpet with another piece from our stock.
Regular care and maintenance is the best way to prolong the life of carpets and rugs. Any new rug or carpet will be bought with a manufacturers maintenance guide for daily care. Following a well planed care program will promise your carpet will maintain its soft feel and clean look for many years.

Q: common emitter amplifier output distortion why the output of the Amplifier is distorted?

*

*the input from the function generator is 1 Vp

*the amplifier is baised at collector voltage of 4.5 V

*the frequency of the input signal is 1 khz

*the cutoff frequency of the input RC is 31.8 hz

*gain is about 1.2

i should get ~1.2v distortionless output

A: When constructing a low-gain amplifier like this, you need to pay attention to the voltage swing at both the emitter and collector of the transistor.
Let's say that you want to maintain a minimum voltage of 500 mV across the transistor in order to keep it from saturating. This means that the remaining 8.5V of your power supply will be distributed as 4.64V across the collector resistor and 3.86V across the emitter resistor.
This means that the collector can swing at most from 9V - 4.64V = +4.36V (minimum, near saturation) to 9V (maximum, near cutoff). Therefore, you want to set your Q point to close to the middle of this range (about 6.68V) in order to maximize the available signal swing.
This corresponds to an emitter voltage of 1.93V at the Q point, so you should design a bias network that has a Thevenin equivalent voltage of about 2.58V (VE + 650 mV).

In a recent study, researchers found that one of the key obstacles to successfully executing a business strategy was the lack of ownership of the strategy or execution plans by key employees. Creating a line of sight between employees and the business strategy is a key driver of employee alignment.
Developing & Validating Your Core Message. First, I will help you design a communication plan that will drive employee understanding of the business strategy and the reasons behind it. Focus groups are a great way to test the message and give employees a say in how they'd like to hear the message conveyed.
Defining Leadership's Role. My next step is helping senior managers understand their role in the process, and helping them bring the strategy to life for their employees.
Devising an Interactive Approach. During this step, I assist your management team, in cooperation with key line employees, in establishing processes that support, and a reward system that reinforces, the importance of the business strategy.
Measuring Success. To prove the value of helping employees connect to the business, it is critical to establish clear outcomes and measures for success at the outset. I will help you develop a few critical metrics that can be measured over time and will definitively determine the success of the business strategy.
By using this collaborative approach to developing messages that are meaningful and consistent, educating leaders on their role in the process, continuing reinforcement of messages through leadership actions and organizational initiatives, and measuring success, I believe you CAN win the hearts, minds and hands of your employees as they HELP YOU achieve business success. Contact me today at 717-314-3680 or ed@edkrow.com to get started on aligning your employees to your business strategy!
To maximize organizational success, companies must motivate individuals and groups toward a common goal. I believe that a solid performance management system must be a dynamic and adaptable process that cascades throughout the organization, from the C-suite, to the individual employee. Since performance management is one of the most challenging areas of responsibility in the field of human resources, a good system must be well-conceived and implemented. Ultimately, the success of the performance management system can also determine the success of the organization.
It is important to note that no "silver bullet" exists that can be used as a solution to maximizing employee performance. What I do know is that a performance management system that balances the goals of the organization with the abilities and characteristics of its workforce will have the greatest chance of success.
Watch This Seminar to learn more about how to use Employee Alignment in your company.
Performance management requires that everyone in your organization shares responsibility for its success. My role in the process is to serve as your strategic partner in accomplishing the desired outcomes of the performance management system. Contact me today at 717-314-3680 or ed@edkrow.com to schedule an assessment of the effectiveness of your existing performance management system.

Q: Prove that $n^{2003}+n+1$ is composite for every $n\in \mathbb{N} \backslash\{1\}$ Prove that $n^{2003}+n+1$  is composite for every $n\in \mathbb{N} \backslash\{1\}$.
I tried with expanding $n^{2003}+1$, but I got nothing pretty not useful. I also couldn't get any improvement, let alone contradiction for assuming $n^{2003}+n+1=pq$ where $p,q\not= 1$. How should I do this and are there general tips on how to approach these problems, what to think about?

A: Let $w=e^{i2\pi/3}$. It's easy to see that $w$ and $w^2$ are all the roots of $x^2+x+1$ and roots of $x^{2003}+x+1$, therefore $x^2+x+1|x^{2003}+x+1$. So we have That $x^{2003}+x+1=(x^2+x+1)P(x)$, where $P(x)$ is some polynomial with integer coefficients. For $x\ge 2$, $x^{2003}+x+1$ is much bigger than $x^2+x+1$ so $P(x)$ is some integer greater than $2$ from which the conclusion follows.

A: Hint $\rm\ f = x^{3n+2}+x+1\ = \ x^2\:(\color{#0a0}{x^{3n}-1})\, +\, x^2+x+1\ $
therefore: $\,\ \rm\ x^2+x+1\ |\ x^3-1\ |\ \color{#0a0}{x^{3n}-1}\:\Rightarrow\: x^2+x+1\ |\ f$

Or $\rm\bmod\, x^2+x+1\!:\,\ \color{#c00}{x^3\equiv 1}\ \Rightarrow\ x^{3n+2}+x+1\equiv (\color{#c00}{x^3})^n x^2 + x + 1 \equiv x^2+x+1\equiv 0$

Remark $ $ Generally $\,\rm x^2+x+1\mid x^I + x^J + x^K\ $ if $\rm \ \{I, J, K\}\equiv \{0,1,2\}\pmod{\! 3}\,$ by here, which is a special case of the method of simpler multiples.

Health Care Tort Reform
Payment Delays Put Lives On Hold
Advanced Billing LLC
Medical Billing and Practice Management
Denver Business Journal - by Amy Fletcher Denver Business Journal
Ruth Freeman ( Lanegan ) runs Advanced Billing Inc. in Calhan, which is southeast of Denver. She testified recently in support of SB 193, which would require Colorado drivers to carry an additional $50,000 in medical and rehabilitation coverage on their auto policies.
She said the current tort system has significantly delayed payments to the physical therapists for whom she works. Freeman ( Lanegan ) submits claims to auto and health insurers and tries to collect money from patients, when appropriate.
Under the new system, she said, therapists are waiting years to get paid, and patients are wondering how to pay hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in medical bills.
"I spend hours just listening to people and hearing their stories," Freeman ( Lanegan ) said. "The patient is crying on the phone saying, 'How do you expect me to pay for this?'"
During a recent legislative hearing, Freeman ( Lanegan ) presented four examples of auto-related claims, chosen at random by her staff, that haven't been paid and which she describes as "typical"
$900 from July 2005. The patient's health insurer paid bills at a 59 percent discount, and $900 is the amount the patient owes from co-pays. Freeman ( Lanegan ) received a phone call from the patient's lawyer in January 2007, asking the physical therapists to discount the $900 by another 30 percent. The patient hasn't started making payments yet.
$1,600 from January 2005 for care provided to two children who don't have health insurance. The mother's attorney still is negotiating with the auto insurer for a settlement. Meanwhile, the mother is making $20 monthly payments.
$4,537 from July 2005. The patient originally thought her auto insurance was going to pay, but then was told her health insurance was responsible. The health insurer asked for information on the claims, which Freeman's ( Lanegan's ) office provided. Those claims were denied last month because the patient didn't receive pre-authorization for the treatment. Freeman ( Lanegan ) is going to tell the patient she needs to start making payments.
$750 from May 2006. The patient still is receiving treatment for her injury, and the auto insurer said it won't settle the case until treatment is complete. Freeman ( Lanegan ) doesn't know when that will be.
"These are people who have had their lives turned upside down," Freeman ( Lanegan ) said. "Then they have to deal with getting an attorney... and getting their credit ruined."

Would you like to see a list of our References?
Use a PTI Motion Capture System for your research and take advantage of its unique features. Our Visualeyez motion capture systems are built for research and science. Depending on your field of research, some specific features may be more relevant to you than others. See below 10 simple questions to help you decide on what you need most from your Motion Capture System.
Our H-series VZ10K trackers offer an accuracy of 0.10mm and can detect a position change as small as 0.015mm. Fully autonomous and continuous calibration for even a multi-tracker system (no need to waive any wand at all) is unique on the market, will keep your trackers calibrated at all times and maintain capture data accuracy.
All PTI trackers offer an exclusive 90-degree viewing angle. One SINGLE tracker can already capture targets over a 7x9x9m space! Using our 6-chip LED markers with 170-degree detection angle will maximize the capture range.
Then you need the short Visualeyez trackers! Only 62cm in length, a VZ10K5 tracker can capture targets as close as 25cm (still up to 7m distance), over a 90-degree viewing angle, both horizontally and vertically! These trackers are ideal for human factor analysis and control (VR) applications, inside automobiles, flight simulators, etc.
It is easy, and cost-efficient. Unique marker ID's ensure that no marker-swapping errors will ever occur. Depending on your application, more trackers can be added to capture motion details from more perspectives at any time. For subjects that will not flip or roll, e.g. UAVs, a single tracker can potentially capture hundreds of them over a 7x9x9m space simultaneously!
Capturing complex motions, e.g. fingers or full body flips and rolls, simultaneously would be an impossible task for especially passive motion capture systems due to marker swapping problems. Not for a Visualeyez system. You can capture intricate fingers AND full body motions at the same time, with no marker errors, in detail, and use your data in real-time.
A PTI system is portable, flexible and autonomous. Portable because each tracker can be transported easily with its tripod, setup in minutes, and start to capture without any calibration. Flexible because trackers can be setup in anyway you like, no need to prevent them from facing each other, no need to aim them top-down either. Autonomous because marker swapping will never happen, and automatic calibration frees you from having to repeatedly calibrate the system manually!
PTI systems are developed for real-time applications, of course this means they are also good for non-real-time applications too. Besides being able to identify each marker uniquely, without any error, the data output latency is < 0.0003s, perfect for applications requiring instant data feedback. SDK is also available for the most demanding control applications which must minimize the temporal effects of the computer OS.
Nothing is easier. A PTI system can be synchronized with any other equipment, (forceplates, EMG, etc) via a National Instruments data acquisition board. You can also synchronize your trackers with an eye-tracking device, or high speed cameras for video feedback if needed.
Our systems come with complete operation software and motion analysis software. Plugins for Matlab, Labview, Visual 3D, The Motion Monitor are also available, as well as for other software.
If you work in highly advanced fields that require real-time feedback to the motion capture subject(s), then you will enjoy using our haptic markers. In the standard form, these markers can send vibration stimuli to the subject(s) in real time during motion capture, allowing you to control their motions by 'touch'. For special applications, customization is available to make the feedback signals trigger other devices. Please inquire further with PTI on this possibility.


The double bass player Hugo Rasmussen was here, there and everywhere on the Danish music scene. Known as one of the country's best jazz bass players and entertainers, he embraced all elements of music from Danish Folkelig ('music of the people') to performances with international superstars (such as Ben Webster, Dexter Gordon & Tom Waits). After years of poor health this beloved musician and friend is no more.
Visiting Hugo in the hospital 10 days before he passed was like hanging backstage at your favourite jazz festival. Old friends, ex-girlfriends, musicians and family were all there, talking about old times, the present and the future. It was just as he loved it: having people around him. Although Hugo was in a good mood (as always) and seemed fine, he was nevertheless weak and had stopped eating. He said 'I have nothing left to give and nothing left outstanding'. He was an active musician until a few weeks before his death, but after living with prostate cancer for years, later spreading to the rest of the body, he was tired and prepared for the end. Everything was taken care of - even the tombstone was already in the making - of course in the shape of a double bass.
Hugo was a beloved and admired person and musician and it's almost impossible to overestimate his importance to Danish music. He loved his bass and his music, and often said 'There's no such thing as bad music, only good music...and that other stuff.' He recorded around 1,000 albums across all genres, did not distinguish between them and loved them equally.
His charismatic, warm personality and open mind was a magnet to a lot of people who would instantly love him. He always gave everyone the time of day and a little piece of himself. I think he did this out of love, but also out of curiosity. He was always seeking new ground, appreciated provocative discussion and loved playing with young musicians. 'They are more up for everything, not as stale as my old colleagues', he would say, with a wry smile.
Unlike his five years younger bass colleague Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen (NHØP), who became an international star, Hugo Rasmussen remained in Denmark, where he had plenty of work. Hugo once told me that in the beginning he tried to sound like the young and talented NHØP, but soon found out that he couldn't and shouldn't. While NHØP's thing was virtuosic soloing, Hugo's thing was the solid bass backing role which he came to love. For more than half a century, Hugo was admired not only in Denmark but throughout the world for this definitive style of bass playing.
I've learned so much from Hugo, and every time I got to play with him it was a great pleasure. Not only would you once and for all learn the correct original voicing or meaning of a song, but also how to best interact with the other musicians and communicate with the audience. He would always give everything he had, even if it was the third gig of the day. After the gig he would often start up a feisty discussion such as who was the best trumpet player ever, followed by loud laughs and big hugs.
On my last visit to the hospice, two days before he died, he was very weak. Nevertheless I got the obligatory hug and kiss on the lips. As he closed his eyes I asked him how many songs he might have played in his lifetime and if he had a favourite. He whispered his favourite song and as I sang it to him, he hummed along and smiled with narrow watery eyes – What a Wonderful World. With his strong spirit and musicality he influenced and touched so many people. Although it's with a lump in the throat, his life and music call for a celebration. He enriched many lives and he died as he lived: with humour, love, musicality and a smile on his face. I miss my hero already.
It is sad to hear that Hugo Rasmussen will not be amongst us anymore. I have known Hugo in the 1980s, especially when I organised a tour in Holland and Belgium for the trio John Tchicai Marilyn Mazur and Hugo Rasmussen. We stayed in contact for several years. The music world for surely will miss Hugo's contributions. He Always reminded me of two other bass players: Red Mitchell and Peter Ind.


Thank you for the info brother.
lolligadu, are you a builder ?
Except this, there seem to be many advantages using AAC.
1. Masonry inefficiency: masons being new to them will not fill the entire joint between blocks with cement-sand mortar or the jointing mortar which is available with the block manufacturers. If there is a airpocket left in those joints, columns or beam and blocks where we have to fill, at a later time due to external temperature variances the blocks being aerative in nature with small air pockets they bulge up which effects in a crack...but this won't happen Everytime...if we use the right mix of cement and sand mortar we can arrest them...also we need to check for the small stones(pebbles) that come with the sand..
If we pass a summer with tiny small scar kinda cracks assume that it is because of masonry inefficiency.
Our first construction a agricultural Warehouse developed some cracks we treated it with Asian crack fix and Dr fixit water proofing liquid...this was two years ago no complaints until now....our second survived a summer and not had any cracks barring some tiny hairline things which we closed with wall care putty.
Kindly throw some light on the technical aspects, especially comparing it to Solid Cement Bricks.
you can also go for the custom sizes like 5 inch if you want.

Using maths to improve ocean rescue
New algorithm promises to find missing people faster.
Credit: Nullplus / Getty Images
When someone gets lost at sea, every minute counts, as the probability of finding people alive plunges after six hours.
Now a new algorithm might quite literally have come to the rescue.
Using mathematical modelling to identify ocean flow structures, US researchers successfully predicted locations where floating objects drift within two to three hours.
Search and rescue operations already use algorithms to produce maps that combine sea dynamics, weather prediction and on-site observations to predict a missing person's location.
However, these computations are costly and slow, wasting precious time, and the resulting search plans can be hard to decipher, write Mattia Serra, from Harvard University, US, and colleagues in a paper in the journal Nature Communications.
When you also have to take account of tides, turbulent weather and unpredictable currents, it can be extremely difficult to find someone, making search and rescue planning "as much art as science, where rescuers still often rely as much on their hunches as on the output of sophisticated prediction tools".
Serra's team reasoned that a better approach might be to narrow down someone's location by working out where objects dropped in the water from uncertain locations are most likely to gather.
To explore this, they drew on a clunky-sounding concept called "Objective Eulerian coherent structures" from dynamical systems theory.
For their purposes, that basically meant uncovering what they call TRansient Attracting Profiles (TRAPS) – curves that are invisible to us but can be extracted and tracked from real-time ocean surface data using mathematical modelling.
This would enable quick, accurate planning of search paths that are less prone to uncertainties about the time and place of the accident.
The team tested their algorithm in three separate experiments near Martha's Vineyard near the northeast coast of the US.
Using the same real-time data available to the Coast Guard, they quickly identified TRAPS and found that objects and mannequins thrown into the water did indeed gather along the curves.
"Of several competing approaches tested in this project, this was the only algorithm that consistently worked in situ," says senior author George Haller from the Institute for Mechanical Systems in Zurich, Switzerland.
The team envisages that sea TRAPS could save lives by improving search and rescue operations and might also help to quickly locate and control the damage from environmental disasters such as oil spills.

How is your congressional representative responding to COVID-19?
Katie Meyer
(J. Scott Applewhite/AP Photo)
Are you on the front lines of the coronavirus? Help us report on the pandemic.
The men and women who represent Southeastern Pennsylvania in Washington, like the rest of Congress, were focused squarely on election season when the coronavirus pandemic first hit the U.S. That focus shifted quickly to a strikingly bipartisan slew of stimulus measures, and then to navigating the quickly solidifying politics of the pandemic.
The southeast delegation includes some of Pennsylvania's most liberal and most moderate members — and those moderates have had to walk a particularly tricky line balancing their priorities in the pandemic response: urging constituents to follow medical advice and stave off outbreaks, supporting businesses that are hemorrhaging funds as stay-at-home orders drag on, and positioning themselves in relation to their party leaders, who are only growing more opposed.
For Republicans, the party line is largely dictated by President Donald Trump, who has criticized Gov. Tom Wolf's stay-at-home orders and urged parts of Pennsylvania to reopen. Trump also has pinned blame for the coronavirus outbreak on China, accusing the country of covering up its own pandemic.
For Democrats, the leading voice has been House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi. The $3 trillion aid bill the House passed in mid-May includes more direct cash payments for Americans, extended unemployment benefits, and new testing and contact tracing efforts. But Republicans have derided it — and declared it dead on arrival in the Senate — for giving states too much flexibility in spending stimulus money and suspending a cap on state and local tax deductions that passed with the Republicans' 2017 tax cuts.
Some moderate members have bucked the party line. Susan Wild, a Democrat who represents the Lehigh Valley, voted against the House stimulus bill, saying that it is "the time to bring our nation together around solutions that will improve the lives of Americans who are hurting, not engage in partisan gamesmanship."
Others, meanwhile, have hewn closer. Brian Fitzpatrick from Bucks County, easily the state's most moderate Republican, has taken a page out of the president's playbook in his primary race against a Trump-branded opponent. One of his latest campaign ads blames China for the pandemic, declaring that country is "trying to steal our future" but that Fitzpatrick is "fighting to make China pay."
Here's more on how Pennsylvania's southeast delegation is handling the pandemic.
Battleground 2020: Pennsylvania primary election
On the fifth episode of our Battleground 2020 series, we'll focus on this Tuesday's Pennsylvania primary.
Air Date: May 28, 2020
1st Congressional District
Republican Brian Fitzpatrick often touts the bipartisan nature of much of his work in Washington, and that hasn't changed as Congress has responded to the coronavirus. Fitzpatrick is one of the co-chairs — along with two Democrats — of the House Coronavirus Task Force, which formed in early March. He and Democratic colleague Susan Wild pushed a bill to extend federal contributions to children's health insurance, and, among other things, he also put his name on a measure that would allow the National Labor Relations Board to hold electronic elections, so workers can remotely unionize during the pandemic.
But even as he branched off from President Trump and other Republicans, Fitzpatrick — lately, anyway — has telegraphed closeness with the administration. He met with Trump to discuss legislation during the president's most recent Pennsylvania visit, and echoed his rhetoric blaming China for the spread of coronavirus in his campaign messaging. He did stop short, however, of truly tying himself to Trump — telling the Philadelphia Inquirer he doesn't yet know who he'll vote for in November.
2nd Congressional District
Democrat Brendan Boyle, who is running unopposed in the primary election and sits in a safe Democratic district, has consistently supported his caucus's recent efforts to boost stimulus funding. Of the $3 trillion plan the House passed recently, Boyle said that while it "is not perfect," the measure would provide direct relief, including more than $4 billion to Philadelphia in "urgently needed funds to cover coronavirus-related outlays and revenue loss." Senate GOP leaders have declared the bill dead on arrival because, among other things, it doesn't include liability protections for small businesses.
Boyle has been an outspoken critic of people gathering in crowds and going outside without masks during the pandemic, including those who rallied at the state Capitol in Harrisburg and President Trump himself. Boyle called the president's May visit to Pennsylvania a "chaotic chapter to his complete failure of leadership" and urged him to go "back to the White House and start doing your job" instead.
Democrat Dwight Evans, another Philadelphia congressman in a safe blue district without a primary challenger, has been focusing a lot of his efforts on COVID-19's impact on the Black Philadelphians in his district. He's pushing for universal, mandatory testing to be conducted before the economy starts broadly reopening — arguing that it could make a big difference for Black people, who have seen higher rates of illness and death from the virus. He also requested that federal funds be allocated to a group of Black doctors who have been performing tests on Philly residents who can't get tests on their own.
Evans voted in favor of the House relief package. Among other legislative endeavors, he also co-sponsored a bill with Pennsylvania Republican Glenn Thompson that would establish a federal tax holiday from mid-February to mid-June for grocery and convenience store workers who make less than $75,000 annually.

4th Congressional District
Democrat Madeleine Dean's family suffered a personal loss related to the COVID-19 pandemic — the congresswoman's mother-in-law, Joan Cunnane, died from the virus in early May. She has spoken publicly about the human toll of the virus, and has also urged her constituents to abide by stay-at-home orders — telling residents of the hard-hit southeast she hopes they will be "patient and demand the universal testing and isolation treatment until we can reopen more safely."
Dean voted for the House's $3 trillion relief bill, and, among other things, co-sponsored a bill that would provide cash payments to struggling small businesses with 50 or fewer employees — a category that had some difficulty accessing Paycheck Protection Program money.
Democrat Mary Gay Scanlon took up the fight for personal protective equipment and other medical supplies in the early days of the pandemic — urging the president, in late March, to begin using the Defense Production Act to produce more.
She has since repeated that call to the Trump administration, pushed for greater access to PPE for U.S. Postal Service workers and letter carriers, and requested that first responders be added to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's high-priority list for COVID-19 testing. She voted in favor of the House's coronavirus relief package.
Democrat Chrissy Houlahan, who is among the more moderate members of Pennsylvania's congressional delegation, voted in favor of the House's sweeping stimulus plan — but with reservations. She said she felt it was a good "starting point" for negotiations with the Senate, which she said has "shown no sense of urgency." But, she added, she's concerned another round of stimulus payments will be as "rocky and frustrating" as the first, that the bill includes too many unnecessary components, and that it's expensive.
Among other things, Houlahan — an AmeriCorps member — has also been involved in a push for a National Public Health Corps, which would help with nationwide testing.
Democrat Susan Wild was one of only two Pennsylvania House Democrats who voted against the chamber's May stimulus plan. In a statement, she said she thought the bill should provide more "direct and immediate assistance" to people, and that it was an unrealistic bill to try to pass through the GOP-controlled Senate.
Along with the bill she sponsored with BrianFitzpatrick to extend federal funding for children's health insurance, Wild has supported efforts to cap prices on certain prescription drugs, and guarantee paid sick leave to health care workers.
Trump's phone call; pandemic preparedness

Is Hyperhomocyst(e)inemia A Humoral Predictor of Coronary Heart Disease?

Elevated plasma homocyst(e)ine levels have prothrombotic and proatherosclerotic effects. Data from prospective studies indicated that plasma homocyst(e)ine acts as a modest independent predictor of coronary heart disease. At present, no conclusive data are available on the possible interaction between hyperhomocyst(e)inemia and hypertension and the occurrence of cardiovascular events. Recent longitudinal studies in high risk patients indicated that hyperhomocyst(e)inemia is strongly associated with recurrent cardiovascular events. However, this finding is not in line with the few available data from prospective studies, which failed to observe a protective role of homocyst(e)ine-lowering therapy in secondary prevention of cardiovascular events. Future results from ongoing larger trials are expected to provide more definitive answers concerning the need to support the routine use of folic acid in patients with CHD. Since the definitive impact of mild hyperhomocyst(e)inemia on coronary heart disease is still to be established, widespread determination of homocyst(e)ine levels is not needed in a general population at the present time. In contrast, knowledge of homocyst(e)inemia may be important for specific groups of individuals, such as high risk patients, and for those patients in whom traditional risk factors do not appear to account for an increased incidence of cardiovascular events.

Comparative Reviews
iPhone Applies for Wraparound Display Patent
Sara Cunningham March 29, 2013 0
US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) just published a patent application made by Apple for an "electronic device with wrap around display." This particular patent was applied for in 2011 but was just recently made public by USPTO. This was later followed by a patent request for "Electronic Devices with flexible displays" in 2012.
It seems that while other Smartphone manufacturers are busy inventing the same technology that Apple is proposing, Apple has been busy patenting. Good for Apple, if the design is approved by the powers that be, then they will be the lawful owner of this new technology. If they decide to push through with this concept.
According to the patent application, Apple was describing a futuristic portable device complete with a wraparound AMOLED display, all-glass construction and face tracking.
Apple is "investigating ways to maximize the utility of unused portions of these devices," according to the document. The wrap around design will make it possible to display a wider array of icons and applications.
This futuristic iPhone wraparound display idea was invented by Scott Meyers according to the patent application. The body could be made of glass or other suitable transparent material, according to the product description.
Users are expected to interact with the device through touch rather than physical buttons. Since the design called for the screen to be entirely wrapped around the device, it was necessary to make use of a face detection system. Apple solved this problem by tracking the user through facial recognition via built-in cameras and adjust the display based on the approximate field of view.
The proposed design alludes to a 3D effect, through multiple transparent display overlaid on top of the other. To give you an idea, one display can show the same content as a second display, but slightly out of sync to give the illusion of 3D imagery. "In this way, an illusion of depth perception can be presented mimicking a 3D experience," the patent proposed.
The publicized patent created an uproar in the techno community. Apple's patent application for the wraparound display calls for an AMOLED screen whose technology and supply is dominated by Samsung.
Speculations are rife whether this iPhone that Apple envisioned and applied for in 2011 will be the iPhone of the future or will it share the same fate with other Apple ideas that was good on paper but never saw the light of day?
The first to invent and the first to file, will Apple also be the first to bring this technology in the market?

I promontori Cathedral sono una serie di ripidi promontori situata nella regione centro-occidentale della Dipendenza di Ross, nell'entroterra della costa di Scott, in Antartide. La serie dei promontori si snoda in direzione ovest-est per circa 15 km nella regione settentrionale della dorsale Royal Society, dove costeggia parte del flusso del ghiacciaio Ferrar, e raggiunge la massima altezza in corrispondenza della vetta del monte Camel's Heap, che arriva a . I vari promontori sono intervallati da valli in cui si trovano diversi ghiacciai, come lo Zoller, il Darkowski, il Bol.

Storia
La formazione è stata scoperta il 7 dicembre 1902 dal tenente A. B. Armitage, comandante del reparto britannico della spedizione Discovery, condotta negli anni 1901-04 e comandata dal capitano Robert Falcon Scott. Tale nome fu dato a questa serie di promontori in virtù della sua forma, che ricorda quella di una cattedrale ("cathedral" in inglese), e, anche in seguito a questo, i sopraccitati ghiacciai che vi sono presenti sono stati tutti battezzati in onore di cappellani militari.

Wow, no one will ever go hungry at our home!
Can't wait to try the chickpea pancake!
wow, i don't even know where to start! i love your tofu yogurt recipe. mmm.
I'm just wondering if the fiana could be used as an alternative to pizza crust? I really want to try this but I'm not sure how sturdy the texture is. Looks delicious, nevertheless!
vijita, it's fairly sturdy. That's actually a really good idea, though it is not "bready" at all. Try it a a snack first and then you can assess the possibilities!
Is the texture of the farinata like a cracker (crunchy?) or softer, like focaccia/flat bread?
It's new year's day, and there was no way we could get soy/vegan yoghurt.
This recipe worked REALLY well! I was questioning the sugar since we didn't want a sweet yoghurt.
I was trying to find your soy yougurt recipe but the link http://veganfeastkitchen.blogspot.hu/2007/02/new-homemade-soy-yogurt-recipe-easier.html doesn't seem to work. I love all your books and all your recipes and I would like to try a flavorful soy yogurt. I had bought many kinds but they all taste awful.

SeXXXy, Complicated Love Vol. Prince
May 12, 2016 by SistaSuga	in It's Complicated, Music, SeXXXy Love and tagged it's complicated, Live Concerts, love hurts, Love Music, Music, music mix, Prince Tribute, R&B, SeXXXy, SeXXXy Love, Sista Suga, Soul Music, The blues	| Leave a comment
What I am about to say may shock some of you but I was not a big fan of Prince, however, I always respected him as an artist. There, I said it! The songs played on the radio were catchy and I had my favorites like Adore, Kiss, Purple Rain and When Doves Cry. I purchased one of Prince's album and that was Diamonds and Pearls because I loved Rosie Gaines'nvoice on the title track. I also loved Gett Off and Insatiable. Not until he passed, I had no idea he published 39 albums and wrote popular songs for a host of other artists.
Nevertheless, I was a nervous wreck when I heard on the radio that there was a dead body in his home They hadn't confirmed who it was, and I was pissed they were playing Prince's music like he was already gone. Minutes later the news came that is was indeed his body. Tears welled up in my eyes. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Like everyone else, I was in total shock. Since his passing, I have immersed myself in videos of his live performances because I never had the experience of seeing him in concert, although I had all intentions the next time he came to town. Viewing his live concert videos is like I'm right there in the audience—it's the next best thing to being there at this point! Yes, I know, I missed out big time!
On another note, being a member of the Valentine's Day, Cupid's Hunt Collaboration has made me feel like a family member and I am ecstatic my Sista Jolene "called my name" to request a SeXXXy Love mix featuring Prince! It's good to know that my music mixes are reaching people! Thank you, Jolene, for testing me; I surprised myself by rising to the occasion so quickly!
In my search for tracks to include in the mix, I was surprised to find so much of Prince's music in my library, I didn't even realize I had. I totally slept on this music other than what the radio played. I can say that within the past three months or so, 1000 x's and o's has been in constant rotation on New York's WBLS, and I instantly fell in love with it! I knew his voice sounded familiar but didn't know it was him until I Shazammed the song—it all made perfect sense, and I was mad at myself for not figuring it was him.
A couple of the tracks I selected have the blues written all over them while also taking on a nice nasty, sweet and spicy kinda feel along with a bit of good ole soul and gospel! I was pleased to find such beautiful songs I hadn't heard before. Thanks to my other son, Marques I included The Greatest Romance Ever Sold, The Neptunes Remix which hit me in the right spot and had to add it. I don't usually select songs for my mixes that are regularly played on radio programs unless they fit into my theme or I really love them. Therefore, I chose a specific selection to showcase SeXXXy Love and It's Complicated because all of the songs are SeXXXy and some of the lyrics in certain tracks involve complicated situations. It was really good to find these tracks, as I love a good and undercover nasty love song that has a funky and soulful beat to it.
Here's an emotional read from my other Cupid's Hunt Podcast Collaboration Sista, Calandra's reaction to Prince's death.
Do enjoy and let me know what you think!

Then I noticed that the link no longer worked... and instead was redirected by the apple website to the generic front page of their developer reference.
I wish someone would point them to Cool urls don't change, and help them understand the web.
This isn't the first time they've broken their reference urls... the web is full of old, bad links to their documentation.
They've updated their online documentation... however they haven't kept the old urls around.
ipython and doc tests. Cutting and pasting doctests into your shell.
Doc tests are a kind of literate programming for python. Where you type tests like you're typing stuff into an interpreter. In fact, it's easy to just type stuff into the interpreter and once you've finished playing around, copy the results from your terminal into a test file. This is a great, fairly low effort way of writing tests.
However, what if you have written them in your source code file, and not in the interpreter? Ok, so you've written some doc tests and you want to paste doc tests into your interpreter?
With the normal python interpreter you can't paste doc tests in(I don't think).
However the advanced ipython interpreter can. It has a special mode from writing doc tests. The command is called '%doctest_mode'.
A common thing to do with web applications is to upload files. People want to upload their pdfs, upload their images, their word documents etc.
This http://tools.cherrypy.org/wiki/DirectToDiskFileUpload method for uploading files with cherrypy seems a pretty good way *1.
This tool lets you upload a file directly to disk... which is handy if you're uploading a very large file. This means the webserver doesn't need to write it all into memory, and that it doesn't need to copy the file when it's finished uploading.
*1 However there are some security, and usability issues with this cherrypy tool(as currently written). Can you spot what they are?
zodb cherrypy and lxml - simple CRUD and OO database with python.
Below I have combined three python libraries to let you do a free-form CRUD document oriented database with a webserver. Where you can just pass it most any text based html form and it will be able CReate, Update, and Delete pages.
In the post I made about cherrypy + zodb and python I combined the best python object database 'zodb' with arguably the best python webserver 'cherrypy', to create a very simple key/value datastore. This time I've combined it with lxml, to give you a very simple free form CRUD document web application.
lxml is an xml library with a number of interesting features. Including a form filling library.
Below is a script which uses 'lxml' to fill in a custom form - specified in normal html - with data you have. lxml has many html/xml related stuff in it... including a css library, and is very fast. Well worth checking out if you need to do anything webby.
So, here I am in London - having moved from Melbourne.
I've visited here a few times, but this time I'm going to live in London for a while. Maybe I'll like it and stay, perhaps I'll move on. Whatever the case I'll be living in London for a while.
Looking forward to meeting London people interested in art, programing, python, graphics, image processing, sound, music, video, games, multi media etc. I'll be at the 'August London Pyssup', Wednesday 7pm at The George.
pyconuk unconference - september 5th.
'PyCon UK 2009 will be held on Saturday 5th September at the CBSO Centre, Birmingham.
It's only £10 if you pre-book. http://pyconuk.org/booking.html. If you're planning on going, please pre-book now, so the organisers have a better idea of numbers.
macvim doesn't seem to install a 'gvim' command. So opening files from the terminal with gvim doesn't work.
Then you'll need to source your shell, or open new shell tabs. Or paste that line into your current shell. Then you can open your files again with OSX gvim and the terminal.
Takes the "pure" out of "Game Development"
- many, many fixes and improvements. The largest amount of changes has gone into this release than any other pygame release.
- bug fixes for backwards compatibility issues introduced in pygame 1.8.x series. old games like solarwolf and libraries like PGU work again.
- experimental camera webcam module (still in development).
- experimental midi module based on portmidi and pyportmidi (99% complete).
- experimental gfxdraw module based on SDL_gfx (including AA circles, textured polygons and other goodness).
- python3, and python3.1 support mostly completed. Some modules still remain to be completed - but mostly it's working.
- nokia mobile phone s60 support.
- improved OSX support (dropped pyobjc dependency, improved installer, sysfont now works on OSX).


The other night as my husband and I watched Food Network's The Next Food Network Star, a show we're both following with interest, I was irritated to hear my favorite finalists promising to "bring it" in the next challenge as they bemoaned their lackluster performances. Maybe the show's fast pace doesn't allow for full sentences, or perhaps the contestants are at a loss for what they really need to improve next. That got me wondering…are we a culture so harried that we have to abbreviate everything we say? And if speaking takes too long, is thinking also on the decline?

Q: [0].click() fires once and .click() is firing three times $('#idElelemnt')[0].click() --> fires once

but
$('#idElelemnt').click() --> firing three times.

there is no On.('click') binds, we are using input onclick property.
Also manual click fires once too.
Html

    <input type="radio" id="uniqueId" onclick="yesOrNoCheck()" value="someValue">

Any clue?

I.e., you will get packets in strict timestamp order from WinPcap?
That does, of course, still not guarantee that packets will be delivered by WinPcap (or libpcap) in the order in which they're received by the network adapter on a multi-core machine (which includes machines with multiple single-core processor chips, of course...).

Up to $20 million could be spent connecting Dunedin's city centre and harbourside with a walking and cycling bridge.
The Dunedin City Council has included $20 million in its draft 10-year plan for an architecturally designed walking and cycling bridge as part of the city to waterfront connection project.
While no specific design is mentioned in the option to be presented to councillors, the bridge designed by Damien van Brandenburg as part of his vision for the redevelopment of the Steamer Basin was mentioned in the report prepared by the council's group manager of community and planning Nicola Pinfold.
Mr van Brandenburg provided the council with a quantity surveyor estimate of the construction costs for his bridge design and associated amenities, which is what the $20 million was based on.
Two other options were explored in the report.
If the council decided on a basic design for the bridge or made upgrades to the Jetty St overbridge it would cost between $6 million and $10 million.
Ms Pinfold noted an underpass had been explored and reviewing work had been done on the option but it had not progressed any further. If the council chose to do nothing then there would be no cost.
Of the $20 million budgeted for the bridge, the council was likely to contribute about $14.5 million, with the NZ Transport Agency contributing the rest.
But it was possible other stakeholders and community funders would also contribute up to $6 million, the report stated.
Mr van Brandenburg was pleased the council had included an "ambitious" design in its budget and looked forward to the public having its say on the proposal.
"What it really shows is the council is really looking out for the future generations of Dunedin and really looking how they can best advance the city forward for our grandchildren."
Access to the Steamer Basin from the city was the most important part of the vision for the area, Mr van Brandenburg said.In her report, Ms Pinfold said the bridge was a key element to opening up the harbourside area by connecting it directly with the rest of the city.
In addition to encouraging the redevelopment of the waterfront, a new or improved connection also benefited the nearby warehouse precinct and other land use changes in the Queens Garden area, she said.

Michigan Teachers Protest Snyder's Court Appeal of Retirement Benefit Case
School workers paid three percent of their salaries between 2010 and 2012, creating a $550 million fund.
Teachers in Detroit use #StopTheAppeals to protest Gov Snyder's effort to return 3% retirement contribution @wdet pic.twitter.com/ZU1YxKDg3t
— Eli Newman (@other_eli) August 3, 2016
Teachers across Michigan came out yesterday to protest Governor Rick Snyder's attempt to keep funds they say were unfairly taken from them. The school worker unions argue that nearly $550 million was taken unlawfully from their paychecks between 2010 and 2012. Teachers in Michigan were contributing three percent of their salaries to a retirement healthcare fund, but union representatives say that money is not guaranteed for the 200,000 employees who paid into the fund. In July, the Michigan Court of Appeals found the law requiring the contributions unconstitutional. Now, Snyder will try to appeal a court decision that ruled in favor of the educators and orders the state pay back the balance. Ivy Bailey is the Interim President of the Detroit Federation of Teachers. She says she doesn't think Snyder's appeal to the Michigan Supreme Court will succeed.
"Already two courts have ruled that it's unconstitutional. I mean, if it's unconstitutional, it's unconstitutional. What's going to make that change?"
Ivy Bailey, Interim President of the Detroit Federation of Teachers
Snyder will move forward with the process without the help of Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette, who opposes the appeal.

Carlos Jacobo Levy (Tunuyán, provincia de Mendoza; 7 de julio de 1942-Mendoza, 25 de diciembre de 2020) fue un escritor, cuentista, poeta, narrador y editor argentino.

Biografía
Carlos Jacobo Levy nació el 7 de julio de 1942 en Tunuyán, Mendoza, Argentina.
Al trasladarse a la capital mendocina, pudo relacionarse con personajes del arte y la literatura como el artista plástico Ricardo Embrioni y los poetas Fernando Lorenzo y Víctor Hugo Cúneo, quienes ejercieron gran influencia sobre él. Incluso conoció al poeta Armando Tejada Gómez.

En 1967 publicó su primer libro de poemas Inmensamente ciudadano, en el que ya se vislumbran los temas de su poética: la cuestión de lo judío, la temática urbana, la melancolía, las pinceladas tangueras y cierta coloquialidad no exenta de lirismo.

Producto del contexto de convulsión política que vivía el país y luego de diecisiete años sin haber publicado ninguna obra, fue en 1984 cuando publicó La memoria y otros poemas.

Luego, junto con su amigo y maestro Fernando Lorenzo, publicó el volumen de poesías Anverso/Reverso, donde incluyó también algunos relatos.

A mediados de los años '80 se unió al grupo literario Aleph, liderado Ana Freidemberg de Villalba, y que publicó libros y revistas con los textos de miembros de esa asociación.

Más tarde, publicaría Café de náufragos y posteriormente, tras crear el sello literario con sede en Mendoza "Canto Rodado", editó La palabra y sus nombres.

Por ese entonces, trabó amistad con un grupo de poetas de diversos puntos del país, como Marcos Silber, Carlos Carbone, Hugo Toscadaray o Eugenio Mandrini, y con ellos fundó la "Sociedad de los Poetas Vivos", que motorizó numerosos recitales y ediciones, tanto particulares como en grupo.

Por esos años también publica su primer texto narrativo, Té con hielo, en el que combina los recuerdos con el cariz poético de sus textos para evocar a sus amigos más queridos, entre ellos el más admirado: Embrioni.

Fue director de la Biblioteca Pública General San Martín y de Radio Nacional Mendoza. Más tarde fue asesor del Ministerio de Cultura del Gobierno de Mendoza.

En 2005, se publicó una traducción suya del poema de José Hernández Martín Fierro al idioma judeo español o español sefaradí.

Distinciones

En el año 2015, el gobierno de Mendoza lo invistió con el título de Embajador Cultural de Mendoza.

Q: How can I delete the rows of a table which stores foreign keys? THE SOLUTION IS BELOW
I have three tables like the following:
CREATE TABLE `t_arch_layer` (
  `arch_layer_id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `arch_layer_name` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`arch_layer_id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=8 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

CREATE TABLE `t_tech` (
  `tech_id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `tech_name` varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
  `tech_type_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `tech_icon` text,
  PRIMARY KEY (`tech_id`),
  KEY `fk_t_tech_t_tech_type1_idx` (`tech_type_id`),
  CONSTRAINT `fk_t_tech_t_tech_type1` FOREIGN KEY (`tech_type_id`) REFERENCES `t_tech_type` (`tech_type_id`) ON DELETE NO ACTION ON UPDATE NO ACTION
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=33 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

CREATE TABLE `t_arch_layer_tech` (
  `arch_layer_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `tech_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`tech_id`,`arch_layer_id`),
  KEY `fk_t_layer_has_t_tech_t_tech1_idx` (`tech_id`),
  KEY `fk_t_layer_has_t_tech_t_layer1_idx` (`arch_layer_id`),
  CONSTRAINT `fk_t_layer_has_t_tech_t_layer1` FOREIGN KEY (`arch_layer_id`) REFERENCES `t_arch_layer` (`arch_layer_id`) ON DELETE NO ACTION ON UPDATE NO ACTION,
  CONSTRAINT `fk_t_layer_has_t_tech_t_tech1` FOREIGN KEY (`tech_id`) REFERENCES `t_tech` (`tech_id`) ON DELETE NO ACTION ON UPDATE NO ACTION
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Basically it's a tipical situation where one table use two foreign keys from another two different tables. This table stores the possible combinations between the layers and technologies so it can't store any combination of layer_id and tech_id which is not in both.
But there is a problem, I need to delete whenever I want some row from t_arch_layer_tech. This it's impossible due to the foreign keys, I know it.
My question is, is there something to use the foreign key as a reference to forbide insert values that there aren't into t_tech or t_arch_layer and also to be consider as "own fields" (I can't explain better) of the table in order to delete any row of the t_arch_layer_tech table? Delete t_tech and t_arch_layer tables to avoid the foreign keys and then set the limits into the t_arch_layer_tech is not a solution.
SOLUTION
When that error appears it's neccesary to check the DB relationships and read carefully the provided message. It seems useless but it helped me to understand what's happening with the t_arch_layer_tech FK. I was using them into another table BUT separately, not as a compound FK. This is the reason because I could insert some rows into t_arch_layer_tech and delete only specific pairs.
So, summarizing, if you are going to use FKs that exist together (as my pair "arch_layer_id, tech_id") create ONLY ONE FK which is a compound FK that uses the mentioned.
