Duracell charges ahead in battery ratings for the 3rd time
We all have that drawer somewhere in the house that's full of half-used batteries, although the ones we need never seem to be on hand. While some of us may rely on the old hit the back of the remote trick to get a bit more juice out of batteries, having a fresh pack at easy reach just makes the household run smoothly.
While some of us might not care which brand we slot into the remote, looking into what's available may save you from changing the batteries in the TV remote as often, saving you time and maybe even some money. But which brand of batteries should you be looking for the next time you're down at the shops?
Canstar Blue's latest review has the answer. We've surveyed more than 1,900 consumers to find out which brands are living up to expectations – and which are leaving us feeling a little… flat. Respondents rated brands on important factors of satisfaction including battery life, effectiveness, variety/range, value for money and overall satisfaction. Those that received the minimum required survey sample size of 30 responses are included in our results. So, what did we find in 2021? Read on for details.
Best-Rated Batteries
Here are the best brands for batteries, as rated by consumers in Canstar Blue's 2021 review:
Activ Energy (ALDI)
Anko (Kmart)
Duracell topped our review of batteries with five stars for battery life, effectiveness, range variety and overall satisfaction. Runner-up Energizer also scored full marks for battery life and range variety, while Varta was the only brand to score five stars for value for money, meaning there's still plenty to consider when it comes to what brand of battery you stock up on.
With only 28% of respondents to our survey always sticking to the same brand, it seems Aussie shoppers are happy to test the market for that positive connection. So, read on to find out what each brand has to offer.
Battery Brands
Founded more than 80 years ago, American brand Duracell is famous in Australia for its advertisements featuring racing pink rabbits. Covering the full spectrum of household battery types, including alkaline, rechargeable, button, speciality batteries, power banks and even batteries for hearing aids, you'll likely be able to find what you need when you look at the Duracell range.
In this year's ratings, Duracell retained its spot at the top, being rated best for battery life, effectiveness and variety, as well as for overall satisfaction. It got four stars for value for money.
Another big brand with a memorable mascot, Energizer's range covers alkaline, rechargeable, coin, speciality and hearing aids batteries, available in AA, AAA, C, D as well as 9V, ideal for whatever you need to power around the house. In addition to batteries, Energizer also offers chargers, allowing you to stay charged while on the go.
Energizer scored top marks for both battery life and variety, with four stars for effectiveness and overall satisfaction, along with a three-star rating on value for money.
Offering four different types of regular household batteries, plus rechargeable, coin, camera and hearing aid batteries, German producer Varta isn't likely to be the first brand you'd think of when the remote calls it quits. But it offers a number of options to potentially make it your next go-to brand. In the regular household battery range, the options include: 'Long Life' for long-lasting energy in devices such as clocks, remotes and radios; 'High Energy' for devices with greater power demands such as torches and computer mouses; 'Max Tech' to meet the precise energy demands of cameras and gaming electronics; and 'Lithium' for professional tier quality power such as for cameras and GPS devices.
Varta was rated five stars for value for money and four stars in all remaining categories, including battery life, effectiveness, variety, and overall satisfaction.
The Eveready product range covers the most common household batteries, with two types of single-use batteries as well as rechargeable batteries. Eveready Gold alkaline batteries are for low to moderate energy drain devices, while Eveready Super Heavy Duty carbon zinc batteries are best for low energy drain devices. Eveready rechargeable batteries come in a choice of AA and AAA, as well as a wall charger which fits two AA or AAA batteries at a time.
Eveready earned four stars for battery life, effectiveness, variety and overall satisfaction. It got three stars for value for money.
ALDI Activ Energy
Taking it to the big names, supermarket chain ALDI has its own range of products for shoppers to pick up while doing the grocery shop, with its range consisting of AA, AAA, C, D and 9V batteries. If you're looking to stock up, or you've just got a lot of appliances that need powering, ALDI AA batteries can be purchased in 50pks, with rechargeable AA and AAA batteries and chargers also available on shelves.
ALDI was rated four stars in the majority of categories including value for money, effectiveness and overall satisfaction. It got three stars for battery life and variety.
Woolworths' private label batteries come in a choice of standard alkaline, heavy-duty, and super heavy-duty types. These cover the standard household range of AA, AAA, C, D, 9V and 6V lantern batteries, with an adaptor pack also available. Chevron batteries are available in packs of four, 10 and 24.
Chevron was rated four stars for value for money and three stars for overall satisfaction and across all other categories.
The supermarket brand covers the full range of standard household alkaline batteries, plus rechargeable AA and AAA batteries. Coles offers affordable options for keeping your devices switched on, but price isn't the only factor to consider. There are two, four and 10 packs available within the line-up.
Coles was rated three stars across the board including for value for money, battery life and overall satisfaction.
Marketed under the Anko range, Kmart's brand of batteries includes carbon zinc AA and AAA batteries, along with coin and button batteries, in addition to high-performance alkaline batteries. The double AA and AAA batteries come in packs of 18 and 24, while coin and button batteries are in sets of four.
Kmart rounded up the scores on three stars for overall satisfaction and in all other categories.
Where can I buy batteries?
Considering how much around the house is battery-operated, you wouldn't be alone if you've had to make a late-night dash to the petrol station for a pack of AAs. Thankfully, you won't be short on options when it comes time to replace batteries, with most brands available on supermarket shelves, as well as retail stores ranging from Kmart to electronic stores such as JB Hi-Fi. If you're desperate for some batteries, or you've already done your weekly grocery shop, you can generally pick up batteries from petrol stations and convenience stores, although they may not have the same range as other retail chains.
Which batteries should I use?
While it's tempting to simply let the price tag make the decision in which brand of battery you put in your shopping trolley, there are a number of areas to consider, including pack size and what the battery is made of, before you take your pack to the checkout.
Alkaline batteries have a higher capacity than carbon zinc batteries, meaning they'll generally last longer, but may also be pricier as a result. Similarly, most AA and AAA batteries are sold in multi-packs, with 33% of survey respondents generally buying the largest pack of batteries available.
Whether you need something for the remote, or for the latest toy you've picked up for your children (or yourself), having a few batteries on hand can be the difference between enjoying a leisure activity or having to cut playtime short. Considering that nearly a quarter of respondents (23%) have had a battery corrode or leak in a device, investing in some good batteries can not only keep your devices running longer, but save you from damaging them completely.

About this research
Canstar Blue surveyed more than 3,000 Australian adults across a range of categories to measure and track customer satisfaction, via ISO 26362 accredited research panels managed by Qualtrics. The outcomes reported are the results from customers within the survey group who have purchased and used household batteries in the last six months (i.e. AA sized) – in this case, 1,911 people.
Brands must have received at least 30 responses to be included. Results are comparative and it should be noted that brands receiving three stars have still achieved a satisfaction measure of at least six out of 10. Not all brands available in the market have been compared in this survey. The ratings table is first sorted by star ratings and then by mean overall satisfaction. A rated brand may receive a 'N/A' (Not Applicable) rating if it does not receive the minimum number of responses for that criteria.

This was the joint committee, later company, which managed the joint railway between Dumbarton Central and Balloch Pier and the railway owned steamers on Loch Lomond. The line had begun as the Caledonian and Dunbartonshire Junction Railway before becoming part of the North British Railway. The Caledonian Railway proposed an independent railway to Loch Lomond from their Lanarkshire and Dunbartonshire Railway, a bluff which had the North British Railway agree to joint ownership of the line and steamers.
The portion of line between Dalreoch Junction and Dumbarton East Junction became joint, making a break of ownership on the line between Glasgow Queen Street, Helensburgh Central and on to Fort William.

Derek Lunsford Shares Shredded Update; Will He Compete at 2023 Arnold Classic vs Nick Walker?
After Nick Waker, Andrew Jacked, and Patrick Moore entered the 2023 Arnold Classic, fans are wondering if Derek Lunsford will throw his name in the mix.

Bodybuilder Derek Lunsford looks shredded seven weeks from the upcoming 2023 Arnold Classic, taking place from March 2-5, in Columbus, Ohio. Following a recent physique update made to Instagram, fans are wondering if Lunsford will jump in the show.
Last year, Derek Lunsford dominated bodybuilding headlines on a number of occasions. He guest posed at Jim Manion's IFBB Pittsburgh Pro show, where he stood next to Brandon Curry, Hunter Labrada, and Nick Walker, proving in the off-season that he had the ability to hang with mass monsters.
A post shared by Derek Lunsford (@dereklunsford_)
Weeks later, his coach expressed doubt about his ability to safely make weight for the 212 category. Olympia President Dan Solomon shared a similar concern and hinted at a special invitation to compete in the Men's Open division. Lo and behold, Lunsford was offered a special invitation in September to compete in the Open class at 2022 Olympia.
At last month's contest, the finals turned into a three-man war between Nick Walker, Derek Lunsford, and Hadi Choopan. While 'The Mutant' secured the Olympia People's Champ Award, he was unable to defeat Open class debutante Lunsford or the new champion Hadi Choopan. In the aftermath, Walker voiced publicly that he wouldn't compete at the 2023 Arnold Classic.
One week after the sparse competitors list was revealed, the Arnold Sports Festival announced the Men's Open prize money had increased from $200,000 to $300,000. As a result, Nick Walker, Andrew Jacked, and Patrick Moore threw their names in the hat. Given Lunsford's success against Walker at 2022 Olympia, fans believe the former 212 champ is on the verge of competing again.
Derek Lunsford In Phenomenal Shape 7 Weeks From 2023 Arnold Classic, Will He Compete?
In a recent post published to Instagram, Lunsford showed off a quarter-turn side profile shot.
After Derek posted the update, fans joined the comment section to speculate about his possible return.
It remains unclear if Lunsford is planning to compete in less than two months. Walker announced his entry last week, and posted a similar physique update a few days ago. Despite losing to Lunsford, Walker is highly confident ahead of his next show.
Should Lunsford end up competing in Ohio, he'll have more than Walker to contend with. Returning two-time champion William Bonac seeks redemption after falling to ninth place at 2022 Olympia. Meanwhile, Olympia sixth-place finisher Samson Dauda plans to improve after placing fourth at the AC last year. Lunsford also has a history with two-time 212 Olympia Shaun Clarida, who has promised the same Olympia package or better in the coming weeks.
Andrew Jacked and Patrick Moore were the latest additions to shake up the roster. Jacked took full advantage of his rookie season, earning his pro card, winning two pro shows, and finishing in the top eight at his first Mr. Olympia competition. As for Moore, he turned in a 14th place finish at his last Olympia contest in 2021 but took 2022 off due to an Achilles tendon injury.
Phil Heath, coached by Derek's trainer Hany Rambod, has also teased his return for quite some time. The bodybuilding legend was caught working out with Regan Grimes recently. They took a photo next to each other and Heath looked massive. Some believe he might be prepping for another bodybuilding show given his size.

While Lunsford hasn't confirmed or denied his entry, many fans believe he'd be the perfect addition to the roster. If he did enter the show, he would immediately be recognized as a favorite, alongside Walker.

ν = 1/2 Landau Level: Half-Empty Versus Half-Full
Ganpathy Murthy, University of KentuckyFollow
R. Shankar, Yale University
We show here that an extension of the Hamiltonian theory developed by us over the years furnishes a composite fermion (CF) description of the ν = 1/2 state that is particle-hole (PH) symmetric, has a charge density that obeys the magnetic translation algebra of the lowest Landau level (LLL), and exhibits cherished ideas from highly successful wave functions, such as a neutral quasiparticle with a certain dipole moment related to its momentum. We also a provide an extension away from ν = 1/2, which has the features from ν = 1/2 and implements the PH transformation on the LLL as an antiunitary operator T with T2 = −1. This extension of our past work was inspired by Son, who showed that the CF may be viewed as a Dirac fermion on which the particle-hole transformation of LLL electrons is realized as time-reversal, and Wang and Senthil, who provided a very attractive interpretation of the CF as the bound state of a semion and antisemion of charge ±e/2. Along the way, we also found a representation with all the features listed above except that now T2 = +1. We suspect it corresponds to an emergent charge-conjugation symmetry of the ν = 1 boson problem analyzed by Read.

Home Gay Culture Little Blue Wonder
Little Blue Wonder
By Mikkel Hyldebrandt
With the introduction of PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis), the way we think and do sex has changed dramatically – and it has vastly impacted the health of gay men positively. Damon L. Jacobs, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, started a global Facebook group called "PrEP Facts: Rethinking HIV Prevention and Sex" after he began using PrEP in 2011, and Peach spoke to him about how the blue pill is reshaping sex and lifting fears and stigmas surrounding gay sex.
For those who don't know, what does it mean to be on PrEP?
PrEP is a pill that prevents HIV. Similar to birth control pills, it can be used to put an individual in complete control of their sexual health and not rely on a sexual partner to protect them from HIV. The medical term for "PrEP" is pre-exposure prophylaxis. But for me and hundreds of thousands of others in the world it has come to mean Proactive, Responsible, and Empowered Pleasure.
How long has PrEP been available?
PrEP was first FDA approved in July, 2012 for adults, then May, 2018 for adolescents.
What side effects have occurred since introducing PrEP?
Side effects are uncommon and rare. It is estimated that about 1 in 200 people taking PrEP may see some renal (kidney) changes. That is why it is expected that people using PrEP will have their blood drawn and kidneys checked at least twice a year. So far, there are no reports of anyone experiencing irreversible kidney changes while using PrEP.
In your opinion, how has PrEP reshaped the way we think about sex and prevention?
For the past three decades the only HIV prevention strategy for anal sex was condoms. Fear of AIDS and death shaped the narrative of HIV prevention, rarely ever acknowledging the value of pleasure and semen exchange between two or more adults. PrEP has completely shifted the idea that fear and punishment must be the driving force in prevention messaging, and allowed room to discuss playful, respectful, sexually meaningful ways of communicating about health and wellness.
What are some of the most common misconceptions about PrEP?
There are 5 major misconceptions that have prevented greater uptake in the U.S.:
(1) That using PrEP will result in kidney or liver damage. Truth: Daily use of PrEP has been measured as safe as daily aspirin.
(2) That using PrEP puts people at greater risk of getting more STIs. Truth: Using PrEP means people are going to get tested more frequently than they would otherwise, therefore treated and documented more conistently.
(3) That PrEP is unaffordable. Truth: Most people in the U.S. pay close to zero for PrEP through the Advancing Access program (1-800-226-2056).
(4) That PrEP is only "up to 92%" effective. Truth: The CDC states that PrEP is more than 99% effective when taken as prescribed.
(5) PrEP makes you more promiscuous. Truth: PrEP allows you to be honest about the sex you are already having, and to be truthful about the kind of sex you want to have.
Are there any added advantages that people are generally unaware of?
PrEP is changing the experience of associating anal sex with punishment and death. Many of us of a certain age (in our 40s and upward) came out in a time when intimacy and pleasure were automatically associated with trauma from the AIDS crisis. Condom use had always been inconsistent, but shame, stigma, and homophobia prevented gay men from talking openly and honestly about their enjoyment of condomless sex. Now, thanks to tools such as PrEP, and U=U (undetectable = untransmittable), we can engage in sexual connections with pride, clarity, respect, and open communication.
In your opinion, who should be on PrEP?
I don't believe in the word "should" in healthcare or wellness. But I do believe PrEP would add great value to any person at risk of acquiring HIV, or anyone who wants to do something that could put them at risk of acquiring HIV. It is especially advantageous for people who bottom to be in full control of their sexual health and protection.
How do you get started on PrEP?
You can go to the national PrEP Directory (preplocator.org) to search for a PrEP specialist near you based on zip code.
Anything you'd like to add?
It is long past time for people to prioritize facts over fears; science over stigma; data over dogma. We have a real opportunity now to end the HIV epidemic in the next decade – let's do this!

Q: How to fix 403 error what Twilio calls my webhook? We're using Twilio. We have webhooks set up so that when Twilio receives a call, it forwards it to a URL on our site.
This appears to have been working fine. But now I made a change to the code, and suddenly Twilio is having problems calling the webhook. We don't receive the message, and if I look in the Twilio log, it says it got a 403 error. (I can't swear that this has never happened before. I've never noticed a message to be lost, but maybe I missed it while debugging other errors, attributed a lost message to something else.)
The truly strange part is, about 2/3 of the message that come in are received and processed fine, but about 1/3 get the 403 error. This is on a test server where we don't have any load balancing, so all requests are going to the same instance of our app. The tests I've been doing today are all from the same cell phone to the same Twilio number.
We do have authorization on the app, but the authorization is all on sub-directories, not the top level, and the sub-directory with our web hook has no authorization set up.
The first thing my our web hook now does when it gets called is send me an email with the content of the message from Twilio. (For debugging purposes.) I'm not getting that email, so I'm very confidant it's not getting called. And as I say, I can look at Twilio's log and it says that it received the text message and got a 403 error trying to forward it to my webhook.
The fact that it's only like 1/3 of the time is particularly puzzling. It's from the same number, to the same number, hitting exactly the same URL on the same site. Why would it work sometimes and not other times?
I tried to reproduce the problem on my desktop by calling the URL directly, not going through Twilio, and that does not give the same error. (It occurs to me as I type that the next logical test is to hit the page on the server without going through Twilio.)
Oh, the server is ASP.NET. The code is in VB but I doubt that matters as we're not getting as far as executing any of our code when it fails. When it doesn't get the 403, the code is working fine.

A: Check your firewall configuration as it might block the requests.
If it does then whitelist requests originating from Twilio.
We're using AWS WAF and ran into a similar situation: We saw the requests erroring out with a 403 in the Twilio Debugger but the requests never hit our endpoints. Once we adjusted the whitelist the problem was gone.

}

the problem is that it's not outputting anything out.
How is it possible to output the file like 2 folder behind
Thank you!

A: This is not outputting anything because your variables are initialized before entering anything in the text fields. you need to do like this, or directly write textfield values to the file instead if first saving to variables and then writing to file:
public void outPutInformation() throws FileNotFoundException, UnsupportedEncodingException {

    String filename = user1.getText();
    String firstname = fname1.getText();
    String middlename = Mname1.getText();
    String lastname = Lname1.getText();
    String username = user1.getText();
    @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
    String password = pass1.getText();
    String hotmail = email1.getText();
    String secretcode = scode1.getText();

    PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(filename+".txt", "UTF-8");
    writer.println(firstname);
    writer.println(middlename);
    writer.println(lastname);
    writer.println(username);
    writer.println(password);
    writer.println(hotmail);
    writer.println(secretcode);
    writer.close();
}

An Update on the Damage to the Arecibo Observatory

Astronomers discover a massive family of stars in the Milky…
On Aug. 10th, a little over a month ago, the iconic Arecibo Observatory suffered serious damage when an auxiliary cable broke and struck the reflector dish. This cable struck the observatory's Gregorian Dome on its way down and twisted an access platform before landing on the reflecting dish itself. The impact created a gash over 30 meters (100 feet) in length and forced the observatory to shut down until repairs could be made.
Since then, teams have been busy working to stabilize the structure and determine the cause. These teams are made up of technicians from the observatory and the University of Central Florida (UCF), which manages the facility for the National Science Foundation (NSF). For the past few weeks, they have been meeting with experts from various fields and laying the groundwork for an investigation and a rigorous repair schedule.
According to a previous statement by the National Astronomy and Ionosphere Center (NAIC), the 7.62 cm (3-inch) cable broke during the early morning hours on August 10th and struck 6 to 8 panels in the Gregorian Dome. Located above the reflector dish, this dome houses Arecibo's tertiary reflector system, which works in conjunction with the main dish and provides added flexibility.

So far, the joint Arecibo-UCF team has met with over 40 experts, ranging in expertise from suspension cable fabrication and installation to structural analysis and forensic investigation. An observatory engineering and safety team has also been formed that is conducting daily inspections while other technicians have created a structural model of the current state of the observatory.
The next step will involve the creation of a structural analysis that relies on computer modeling. This will assess whether other areas of the telescope are at greater risk as a result of the accident and help frame the scope of repairs and associated costs. Only then will the teams be able to attempt to retrieve a portion of the broken cable and socket for forensic analysis.
As Francisco Cordova, the Director of the Arecibo Observatory, explained in a UCF press statement:
"We know the process is taking a long time and we are eager to begin repairs. However, this is a big and complex facility, so it is taking some time to ensure we are doing things right. We have to be sure we are taking all factors into consideration before moving forward with putting people on the telescope to remove those pieces. Once those are in hand, we expect the timeline to pick up the pace."
Four commercial entities – WSP, Thornton Tomasetti, WJE and Associates, and Pfeifer Wire – have been contracted to help coordinate the investigation, review the structure, and come up with a plan for instituting repairs. NASA is also contributing personnel from their Engineering and Safety Center (NESC) and the Kennedy Space Center (KSC).

In the meantime, Arecibo's Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) and Remote Optical Facility (ROF) continue to operate and are contributing to a variety of research projects. The Gregorian Dome has also been moved into its "stow/safe" position and its safety pins were installed on Aug. 20th. Basic functional tests have been made on the receivers and so far, no damage appears to have been caused to the electronics inside the dome.
As soon as all the safety and structural analyses are complete and the cause of the failure is determined, the information will be shared with the NSF and the public shortly thereafter. While the Arecibo Observatory is no longer the world's largest radio telescope, its ongoing importance to the fields of atmospheric sciences, planetary sciences, radio astronomy, and radar astronomy cannot be overstated.
Arecibo is also home to the team that runs the Planetary Radar Project, which is supported by NASA's Near-Earth Object (NEO) Observations Program. As part of NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office, this project relies on radar observatories around the world to precisely track and determine the orbits of NEOs that periodically pass close to Earth.
In short, the number of people and institutions that want to see the Arecibo Observatory up and running again can also not be overstated!

According to its rare material culture remains from earlier eras, one can confidently say that the space where Zvornik is now has been covered with human settlements since ancient times.
In history Zvornik was first mentioned in 1410 under the name Zvonik (Bell tower). In one story the town is named after a lonely tower of some ruined church which was built, according to the assumptions, at the end of 7th and early 8th century. According to the second story, the town is named after Franciscan monastery's bell tower, built at the beginning of 15th century. The third story says that the land on which town was built is in the shape of a bell. Yet there is one more version of the story and it says that it was named after the numerous sources of cold water (spring, orig. izvornik), and even at Roman time it was known as a station on the way to Sirmium. It had that name until 1519. During this period it consisted of two parts: The Fortress and Lower Town. From 1428 it started being mentioned as a place from where people were transporting silver to Dubrovnik.
Serbian despots, Turks, Hungarians and Austrians were fighting for Zvornik as an important strategic point and intersection of roads.
According to available sources, the oldest inhabitants of this region were Scordisci – people of Celtic origin, who accepted Roman rule, which was established there and throughout the Balkan Peninsula at the beginning of the first century AD.
Numerous Roman traces have been found just in the vicinity of Zvornik. An inscription from 3rd century was found in town, and on a vertical rock Ograda, where now is hotel Vidikovac, a Roman fort was discovered and it consisted of a tower for observing and a building for the guards, as well as an altar. In village Dardagan, on the way to Sapna, in one pit (Sige) were found not only traces of an earlier Roman quarry, but one late ancient tomb form 4th century, and particularly important, a monument of so-called Mithras cult, made of cave stone, with dimensions of 50 x 70 cm (significantly damaged and kept in Tuzla's Museum). Since it has been founded, Zvornik has been a major crossroads – one road goes north along the Drina valley towards Bijeljina (from there goes across the Sava River to Sremska Mitrovica and on), and to the south across the Drinjača River towards Vlasenica, Sokolac, Han Pijesak and Sarajevo. From Drinjača, the other part of the road goes towards Bratunac (via iron bridge on Drina river and to Ljubovija) and Srebrenica. Zvornik is also connected with its much younger namesake Mali Zvornik (Little Zvornik) in Serbia by an iron bridge which was opened for all types of motor vehicles, from 1924, when it was built, until recently. Today, it is only for pedestrians, since for the other traffic the new concrete bridge is built, two kilometers away in Karakaj settlement.
The biggest part of Zvornik has developed in recent years in its northern part, where the hills start moving apart, leaving a significant expanded space at where small river Zlatica it flows into Drina river, and just by it.
Zvornik is a town of tumultuous past and one of the oldest towns in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was and still is a crossroads. Unfortunately, conquerors often came by these roads.

Q: Need to replace integers with floating points in lines containing a specific string in an xml formatted file For reasons related to app functionality, we need to massage certain data incoming to a system by replacing an integer value with a fixed length decimal value
Example:
Before
<smile:ordinary code:type="Fields" code:value="25">

After
<smile:ordinary code:type="Fields" code:value="25.000000000">`

I had tried to used a sed command in place to replace with a regex group such as the one below
sed -i 's/\(ordinary.*"[0-9]\+\)/\1.000000000/'

This works fine but there's a file watcher that triggers when the file is modified and if it receives a well formatted file, it ends up adding an extra set of 0s
<smile:ordinary code:type="Fields" code:value="25.000000000.000000000">

I've also struggled to get this working with awk and printf but ideally, i'd replace the integer strictly with a decimal. I've considered using an xsl filter transform as well but I'm not quite as well versed there as with shell commands. I'm open to all suggestions including possibly writing a shell script to loop through each line I guess.

A: Very easily done in XSLT. It just needs a stylesheet with two rules, the standard identity template that copies elements unchanged by default plus a rule
<xsl:template match="smile:ordinary/@code:value">
  <xsl:attribute name="code:value">
    <xsl:value-of select="format-number(., '#.000000000')"/>
  </xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>

Plus the required namespace declarations, of course.

Q: package on sys.path, with init importing names, can be used internally, but not from outside it I have a package my_scripting_library I want to use anywhere on machine. It has an init.py:

test_stuff.py looks like:

but running test_stuff with from silo_functions import * works:
it prints the lines
Of course I can't use this package from other folders, which is the real issue- I don't want to be forced into throwing all scripts in this one place. This is causing huge problems as I am constantly reusing dozens of functions each script, and over 5 tutorials on making a folder a python package never have worked yet. Why is something on the python path with an init not a package? Thank you

A: May be it is because you've added '.../python/my_scripting_library'  to your path. But there are no 'my_scripting_library.py' at this folder.
If you want to use 'my_scripting_library.silo_functions', try to add '/home/cchilders/scripts/python' (not '/home/cchilders/scripts/python/my_scripting_library') to path.
Because 'my_scripting_library' is module. Python will find this folder, find  __init__.py in this folder and mark it as module.

Padmanabh (také Terong Tower) je hora vysoká 7 030 m n. m. nacházející se v pohoří Karákóram v Indickém státě Džammú a Kašmír.

Prvovýstup

Vrchol Padmanabh leží ve sporné oblasti konfliktu o ledovec Siačen a je kvůli tomu těžko dostupný pro horolezce. Hora byla poprvé vylezena jižním hřebenem 25. června 2002 dvěma Japonci (Hiroši Sakai a Jasuši Tanahaši), kteří byli účastníky indicko-japonské expedice.
