Q: Height and Distance problems A ladder rests against a wall at an angle $\alpha$ to the horizontal. When its foot is pulled away from the wall through a distance $a$, it slides a distance $b$ down the wall and makes an angle $\beta$ with the horizontal. Prove that :
$$\frac{a}{b}=\frac{\cos\alpha-\cos\beta}{\sin\alpha-\sin\beta}$$.
I tried to solve this question as;
Let $AB$ be a wall and $AC$ be the ladder. Then $\angle ACB=\alpha$. Now, the question says, "when its foot is pulled", I doubt that whether the ladder is pulled in sideways direction or in downward direction.

A:
We have $(a+x)^2+y^2=x^2+(b+y)^2$ (as they are both equal to the length of the ladder). And $\tan\alpha=\frac{b+y}{x}$ and $\tan\beta=\frac{y}{a+x}$. Eliminating $x,y$ between these three equation, we get
$$
a^2 \tan (\beta )+2 a b-b^2 \tan (\beta )=\tan (\alpha ) \left(-a^2+2 a b \tan (\beta )+b^2\right)\ .
$$
Dividing both sides by $ab$, we get
$$
(a/b) \tan (\beta )+2 -(b/a) \tan (\beta )=\tan (\alpha ) \left(-(a/b)+2  \tan (\beta )+(b/a)\right)\ .
$$
Setting $a/b=\xi$, this is equivalent to
$$
\xi \tan (\beta )+2 -(1/\xi) \tan (\beta )=\tan (\alpha ) \left(-\xi+2  \tan (\beta )+(1/\xi)\right)\ ,
$$
which can be solved for $\xi$.
EDIT: Solving for $\xi$, one obtains two solutions:$\xi=-\mathrm{cot}((\alpha+\beta)/2)$ (which is not acceptable because, for $0<\alpha+\beta<\pi$
it gives a negative value for the ratio $a/b$), and $\xi=\tan((\alpha+\beta)/2)$. Then, using a tangent of half-angle formula https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_half-angle_formula I can write this as
$$
\xi=\frac{a}{b}=\frac{\cos\beta-\cos\alpha}{\sin\alpha-\sin\beta}\ ,
$$
i.e. with a minus sign difference with respect to the solution posted by the OP, which seems in fact incorrect. Take for example the case $\alpha=\pi/4$ and $\beta=\pi/6$. Then we have $x=b+y=L/\sqrt{2}$, $y=L/2$ and $a+x=(L/2)\sqrt{3}$, if $L$ is the length of the ladder. Then, $a/b=-2-\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{6}\approx 0.76... $, while $\frac{\cos (\alpha )-\cos (\beta )}{\sin (\alpha )-\sin (\beta )}=\left(1+\sqrt{2}\right) \left(\sqrt{2}-\sqrt{3}\right)\approx -0.76...$

I City of Edinburgh Kings sono una società di pallacanestro, fondata nel 1988 con la denominazione di City of Edinburgh Basketball Club.

Storia

Origini
Il City of Edinburgh Basketball Club è stato fondato nel 1988, quando le squadre juniores di Portobello e Wester Hailes si fusero per entrare nel campionato nazionale maschile. Portobello BC derivava dalla formazione del Portobello Old Parish Church Youth Club (POPYC) degli anni '60.
Dai primi anni '70 il Portobello BC aveva la sede presso il plesso scolastico Portobello High School (tuttora la sede della società) e qui, tramite Toni Szifris, la squadra si sviluppò attraverso una politica votata al reclutamento dei giovani verso il basket.

Storia recente
Dalla fondazione dei Edinburgh Kings la società è riuscita a svilupparsi fino a vincere la sua prima Coppa di Scozia nel 2002 ed il campionato l'anno successivo nel 2003, diventando il club in attività di maggior successo del paese.

Sony Ericsson has launched a renewal for its model Т230 that actually got the index of Т290. The models are very alike in appearance and differ only in the body colours. Another difference from Т230 is the presence of a speakerphone mode. There are no other hardware or software differences in the phone and that is almost a complete copy of T230.
The device is comfortable in size and lies well in a hand (101.5x43.5x19 mm). The weight of 79 grams is now typical for a low-end model of the class. A coupled rubber volume button is on the left-side surface.
The screen shows 4096 colours and has the resolution of 101x80 pixels. Up to 7 text lines are displayed and that is unordinary for this resolution. That is achievable due to the changes font-size and 7 lines are characteristic for the minimal font-size. A usual font-size allows showing 5 text lines and they are seen well then.
The display is morally outdated even despite the phone is a low-end model. A thing acceptable in a two-year-old low-end model is an anachronism now.
The keypad is made of rubber and a navi joystick in on the contrary of plastic. An inscribed OK button is glossy and small being hard to work with. In general the keypad leaves a pleasant impression though is not ideal. The backlighting is green and seen in not in all conditions.
A standard interface connector is on the bottom end and a strap hole may be seen on the top end of the device.
The main menu is presented in a list of 9 icons placed in three rows. Each of them opens the access to item/sub-item list and have its own number. As you might have guessed, the phone supports shortcut number navigation.
Phone book. Up to 250 entries can be stored in the phone's memory, each of them can feature up to three numbers (cellular, work, home) and e-mail address (up to 10). The memory is spreading dynamically; this means that if you enter one number for each entry you will end up with 250 entries. Т290 supports user groups. Each entry can be provided with custom ring tone and icon (there are more than 50 of them preinstalled), or a photo that was made with the external camera. An ability to create the number for each entry by default came out as a nice surprise.
Messages. Besides SMS and EMS message receiving and sending MMS receiving and sending is also supported. Built-in e-mail client is present as well (POP3/SMTP). The realization of all parameters is typical for Sony Ericsson phones, this means that neither problems nor in usage nor in settings were encountered.
Call list. Traditionally this menu has the log of all calls. There are only two lists in this phone: missed calls (up to 10 entries) and common (up to 20 entries). Each entry is provided with date and time. In case you decline the incoming call it will be sorted in the Missed calls list - please note that peculiarity in advance.
Call duration timers can be activated here as well, as well as incoming/sent data counter.
Settings. As the menu says, all settings that are related to phone's working process are stored here: date and time, display settings (contrast level, wallpapers), menu language and input language, profiles.
Organizer. Two alarm clock types can be set - single and continuous according to weekday. The alarm clock works even if the phone is turned off.
Timer and stopwatch with intermediate results as well as calculator are present.
You can define standalone appointments and setup warning signals for them.
Images and sound. All graphical, sound and theme files are stored here. You also have the ability to use the microphone to record some sound, and later on use it as the ring tone.
Games. The phone has two games preinstalled - Deep Abyss, V-Rally 2.
Connection. The phone supports GPRS (3+1), you can also synchronize it with your PCF via data cable.
The phone has WAP-browser v1.2.1.
The phone is overally nice in term of interlocutor's voice quality. On the whole polyphonic ring tone's volume is enough. The vibrating alert can be rated as average. Considering that this is a budget phone, we will not say much about its functionality. The difference from T230 mainly concerns the loudspeaker mode realization but that is evidently not enough for making another index like the company did. The price will form 100 USD or even higher in the retail networks. That will be done on purpose to divide the model from 230 (the price is about 85 USD for the moment). Models Motorola C380 and Siemens A65 looking more preferable than this model are represented in the same segment. Unfortunately, the attempt of old device renewal was not a success and the company failed in launching an adequate replacement. The model got is morally outdated even for the release moment.


Many customer's bring Cliff Industrial a design concept that requires more than what our capabilities offer. Here's a great example. Cliff Industrial took in a stainless steel welding job for a component on a liquid tank. The customer brought us the initial concept, which required some welding work and a bend in the stainless steel. Cliff Industrial doesn't have the capabilities to bend stainless steel. However, we are able to reach out to our channel to get the job done. We contacted a local sheet metal shop for the bend, and received the material back for us to finish our job quickly and cost effectively.

\section{Introduction}

Image processing and automated pattern recognition techniques are crucial elements in advance of (optical) imaging technology. As image acquisition has become more precise (in time and spatial resolution) and ubiquitous, the need to extract information from these images has grown exponentially. One of the many scientific areas impacted by such processing is in observing the drying drops of some complex fluids. Specifically, one such class of complex colloidal fluid relevant to forensics and medical sciences is biological fluid such as blood, blood serum, tear, urine, or simple protein solutions \cite{brutin2018recent}. Recent research findings \cite{chen2016blood,bel2019morphology} have found that dried drops of serums can differentiate the state of health of a patient. Furthermore, the whole dried pattern appears to be connected to the initial state of the material present in these complex fluids \cite{pal2019comparative,pal2019phase}. For example, Deegan et al. have studied colloidal drops and found that the drops get pinned after depositing on the substrate. The particles start concentrating near the edge more than the central region, forming a ring called ``coffee-ring effect" \cite{deegan1997capillary}. Due to this pinning and solvent loss, the drops are no longer able to shrink and ultimately, form cracks (patterns) under strain during the drying process.

This paper exploits image processing techniques applied to the cross-polarizing microscopy to probe birefringence and the bright-field microscopy to examine the crack patterns. The bio-colloidal solution of interest is a mixture of water, and three different proteins [lysozyme (Lys), myoglobin (Myo), and bovine serum albumin (BSA)], all at a fixed relative concentration with and without a nematic liquid crystal (LC). The patterns are characterized using three different criteria, (a) the optical outcome, (b) the textural dynamics, and, (c) statistical significance. This work uses both automated and semi-automated image processing techniques to quantify drying dynamics and dried morphology. Our analysis reveals that the topmost part of the BSA film is coated with LC droplets, whereas, the same LC droplets are randomly distributed underneath the Lys and Myo films. This paper demonstrates the versatility and usefulness of these image processing techniques and is adaptable to any similar imaging system.

\section{Materials, Sample Preparation and Image Acquisition}
Lysozyme (Lys), myoglobin (Myo) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) are globular proteins differing in mass, charge, and properties \cite{pal2019comparative}. The presence of a heme group helps Myo to serve as an oxygen-binding protein. Lys and Myo have similar molecular masses of $ \sim14.3$, and $ \sim17.0$~KDa respectively, whereas BSA contains a higher molecular mass of $ \sim66.5$~kDa \cite{pal2019comparative}. The net charge of Lys, BSA, and Myo is positive, neutral, and negative respectively. The commercial powdered proteins were purchased from Sigma Aldrich, USA. Myo (Catalog no. M0630), Lys (L6876), and BSA (A2153) were used without any further purification. Distinct protein solutions containing each of Lys, Myo, and BSA ($100$~mg each) were prepared by dissolving those separately in $1$~mL of de-ionized water. Following that, an optically active and polar LC, 5CB (328510) was heated above the transition temperature ($35$~$^{\circ}$C), and $10$~$\mu$L was added as a third component to the solution. A $\sim1.3$~$\mu$L of the solution was pipetted on the coverslip in the form of a circular drop, which was allowed to dry under ambient conditions \cite{pal2019comparative}.

\begin{figure}[h]

\end{figure}

A polarizing microscopy (Leitz Wetzlar, Germany) with a $5\times$ objective lens at a fixed resolution of $2048 \times 1536$~pixels was used to capture the images \cite{pal2019comparative,pal2019phase}. An $8$-bit digital camera (Amscope MU300) in color profile mode assigns intensity values from $0$ to $255$ in each color of red, green, and blue (RGB) pixels for image acquisition. After the deposition of the drop on the coverslip, the time-lapse images in crossed polarizing configuration were recorded at every two seconds to monitor LC droplets' birefringence during the drying process. Each drop was deposited three times from the same sample to ensure the reproducibility. The final dried state was examined in bright-field configuration to understand different crack patterns in different protein drops with and without inclusion of LC droplets. Since it was challenging to view the entire $\sim2$~mm diameter drop using a $5\times$ objective lens, different sections of the dried drops were imaged separately (Fig.~\ref{fig1}a). Each section is stitched together (Fig.~\ref{fig1}b) by using \textit{Stitching} plugin \cite{preibisch2009globally} in Fiji \cite{schindelin2012fiji}. We propose a semi-automated image-processing algorithm on the stitched images to determine the spacing between the consecutive cracks ($x_c$) in ImageJ \cite{abramoff2004image}. We converted stitched bright-field images into gray (Fig.~\ref{fig1}c). For these gray images, the range of monochromatic shades from black to white are displayed from $0$ to $255$ without partitioning into RGB sets of pixels. Then, the bright and contrast of the image were adjusted (Fig.~\ref{fig1}d) and filtered with a variance filter (Fig.~\ref{fig1}e), and processed into an 8-bit binary image ($255$~for pixels depicting the crack lines and $0$~for pixels elsewhere else) (Fig.~\ref{fig1}f) \cite{pal2019comparative,pal2019phase}. However, the filtering was not enough to process the images into exact binary images. The artifacts were, therefore manually removed by comparing (overlapping) the processed images on to the original images. However, future work will automate this procedure.

The morphology of the dried drop is such that it can be divided into two regions: rim and central. The rim is near the edge depicted by yellow dashed line in Fig.~\ref{fig1}f. We converted all the images of the dried drops into a scaled stack. Three circular-cut lines (shown by white circular line in Fig.~\ref{fig1}f) of different radii were made in each region by using \textit{Oval Profile} plugin in ImageJ \cite{pal2019comparative,pal2019phase}. The intensity values were plotted along each circular line at every $0.1^\circ$ as a function of arc-length along each circle. A script using `\textit{Array.findMaxima}' was used to determine the positions of maximum intensity values. An estimate of the crack spacing, $x_c$ (outlined by green color in Fig.~\ref{fig1}f) is calculated by the consecutive maxima difference \cite{pal2019comparative,pal2019phase}. All the intensity values along the crack lines were cross-checked manually to see if there is an artifact. If found, were corrected to the consistent (and fixed) values to maintain uniformity along the crack lines. A threshold of $\pm0.005$~mm were used as a standard range and $x_c $ values outside this range was recorded and aggregated in each region to obtain an average ($\overline{x}_c$) \cite{pal2019comparative,pal2019phase}. However, there may be cracks that propagate along the drawn circle, leading to some uncertainty in the extracted crack distributions.

To quantify the birefringence of the LC droplets during the drying process, a circular region of interest (ROI) was drawn on the image covering the area in the drop, and another ROI was drawn on the image covering the background (coverslip) using the \textit{Oval tool} in ImageJ \cite{abramoff2004image}. Once the ROI was selected, the birefringence intensity of that ROI was measured. To ensure that the different size of ROI in the sample and the background do not affect the intensity measurement, \textit{mean gray value} (the sum of the values of the pixels in the selection divided by the area of the pixels in the selection) in ImageJ \cite{abramoff2004image} was chosen. A script was written for an automated image-processing algorithm which measures the \textit{mean gray value} for each ROI in the images during the drying process. However, the differences in the \textit{mean gray values} during image recording might affect both the background and the sample. To counter this, a correction (calibration) with the background i.e., a correction factor was determined. It could be done by subtracting the background gray values; however, it wouldn't have fixed an uneven background in the series of images. So, the ROI with the lowest background \textit{mean gray value} was chosen from the whole set of images during the drying process as a reference. The lowest was also selected to avoid into running the risk of generating overexposed images (otherwise the correction factors would be smaller than $1$). The corrected intensity of the sample ($I_c$) was then determined for each sample by dividing the mean gray values with the correction factor. The intensity was averaged over a range of $30$ seconds and also averaged for three drops. Good reproducibility was found in the intensity profile, though the time was shifted (added or subtracted) to make the profile nearly overlap to each other. Note that the lamp intensity was kept fixed throughout the whole experiment done with each protein drop. And finally, the averaged corrected intensity values ($\overline{I}_c$) was plotted with time. In addition to $\overline{I}_c$, another textural parameter i.e., standard deviation (SD) was calculated and were averaged over $30$ seconds to understand the emerging complexity during the drying process.

\section{Results and Discussions}

\begin{figure}[h]
\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{fig2.eps}
\caption{Upper panel: Variation of birefringence intensity ($\overline{I}_c$) of LC droplets during the drying process. Three unique regimes are observed: (I) a steady upsurge, (II) a speedy rise, and, (III) an eventual saturation of intensity. Lower panel: Variation of standard deviation (SD) of the images during different drying stages.} \label{fig2}
\end{figure}

The upper panel of Fig. 2 reveals the variation of birefringence intensity ($\overline{I}_c$) of LC droplets during the drying process. The standard deviation (n = 3) is higher in all the transition compared to the other regimes due to the presence of different sized LC droplets in different drops. It demonstrates an archetypal response of LC droplets dissolved in protein solutions and displays three distinct regimes: (I) the initial process of getting a minimum contact angle configuration with a gradual increase of intensity, (II) the intensity gets amplified due to LC activities, and (III) the intensity is saturated in the final regime once the drop completes the evaporation process. It also suggests that the birefringence nature is independent of types of proteins and less efficient to capture the minute details of the LC activities during the drying process. The stage I completes in $11$-$14$~minutes, and the rate of intensity in stage II is $\sim0.28$ (for Lys), $\sim0.09$ (for Myo), and $\sim0.08$ (for BSA). A smooth transition regime in both Lys and Myo is observed, but not in BSA drops indicating a distinct final morphology in BSA. As mentioned earlier, BSA contains a higher molecular weight ($\sim66.5$~KDa) and the increase of mass in proteins decreases the rate of intensity change (one surprising finding is the drastic decrease from $0.28$ to $0.09$ in similar weighted proteins of Lys and Myo respectively). It is to note that LC has a strong dipole moment (polar) and the presence of a heme group without any disulfide bonds in Myo could interrupt the local interactions of Myo-LC differently than Lys-LC. Moreover, LC droplets wet the substrate (coverslip) differently for different proteins because of their difference in nature (mass, size, charges of proteins). Hence, it indicates that the mass is not only the contributing factor but involves many other interactions such as self-assembly among protein particles (protein-protein interaction), phase separation and self-assembly of LC droplets (protein-LC, LC-substrate), etc. \cite{pal2019comparative}.

The lower panel of Fig.~\ref{fig2} shows the SD (standard deviation of the image) of the same drops depicting a similar trend as a function of time. The $\overline{I}_c$ captures the whole process such as phase separation, formation of protein film, movement of fluid, water evaporation, etc., whereas, the SD is sensitive to changes in the image complexity \cite{carreon2018texture}. The SD gives additional insights into the morphology in terms of changes in inhomogeneity and complexity. In Myo, it shows a difference in the evolution pattern from $\overline{I}_c$ by observing a dip and rise in the transition region. Though Myo protein film is faint red in color under cross-polarizing microscopy, it doesn't mean that it is optically active like the LC droplets (yellow in color). It means that Myo reflects a particular wavelength (red), and absorbs rest of the colors in the visible spectrum. This becomes advantageous over other proteins in our study i.e., Lys and BSA because the inhomogeneity is clearly distinguishable by calculating SD. The flow of the LC droplets through the Myo film promotes a dip, and the process of turning the film (into reddish) indicates a difference in SD. On the other hand, BSA shows a rise in the complexity of regime III. At this stage, the texture (SD) is found to be changing while distributing the LC droplets whereas the $\overline{I}_c$ fails to display such details and shows constant values. In spite of these differences, a common characteristic is observed in both $\overline{I}_c$ and SD by their increase through the drying process and saturation when the drops are fully dried. This is consistent with the process of droplet drying, phase separation, film formation, stain, and finally, film cracking.

\begin{figure}
\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{fig3.eps}
\caption{Upper panel: After 24 hours, the images were captured in the bright-field configuration in the presence and absence of LC droplets (a-f). Lower panel: the processed binary images (g-l). The scale bar of $0.15$~mm is shown in the right corner of [f].} \label{fig3}
\end{figure}

Fig.~\ref{fig3} shows the crack patterns and their processed binary images (in presence and absence of LC droplets). The common feature noticed in all the drops is the presence of ``coffee-ring" \cite{deegan1997capillary} (upper panel of Fig.~\ref{fig3}) confirming the general mechanism of the drying colloidal drops. The inclusion of the LC droplets affects the cracks' nature, and makes a rough protein film's surface. LC is believed to increase the stress in all the drops and the stress in turns produces more number of cracks. The central region of both Myo and BSA does not contain any cracks in the absence of the LC droplets (Fig.~\ref{fig3}b,c). Contrary to that, the inclusion of the LC droplets in the protein drops leads to- (i) an ordered crack distribution and disturbs a `mound'-like structure in the Lys drops (Fig.~\ref{fig3}a,d), (ii) a formation of well-connected large and small crack domains in the Myo (Fig.~\ref{fig3}b,e), and (iii) an overall increase of the cracks in the BSA and the formation of a few cracks in the central region (Fig.~\ref{fig3}c,f).

\begin{figure}[h]
\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{fig4.eps}
\caption{The comparison of mean crack spacing ($ \overline{x}_c$) in different conditions and environment. Left panel: comparison of $ \overline{x}_c$ with and without LC droplets observed in the rim region. Middle panel: overall effect of the LC droplets in relation to $ \overline{x}_c$ in all the protein drops. Right panel: comparison of $ \overline{x}_c$ in the rim and the central region in different protein drops in presence of LC droplets. An asterisk [*] indicates significant pairs.} \label{fig4}
\end{figure}

To quantify the crack spacing ($x_c$) and to develop a physical mechanism of the underlying process of crack distributions, a non-parametric Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests were conducted. Any statistical difference in mean crack spacing ($\overline{x}_c$) is considered to be significant when p $ <0.05$. The significant pairs are marked with an asterisk [*] in Fig.~\ref{fig4}. All the experimental data are expressed as mean $\pm$ standard error (SE). The crack morphology discussed in Fig.~\ref{fig3} confirmed that the rim region of all the protein drops is specified for more number of cracks compared to the central region. We, therefore, conducted a series of statistical tests to examine the (significant) effects of LC droplets on all the proteins. The left panel of Fig.~\ref{fig4} shows the way LC droplets affect the $x_c$ distributions in the rim region of all proteins. We did not observe any significant difference related to $x_c$ distributions. The distribution is observed to be equally large in all the protein solutions without LC droplets. However, $x_c$ is observed to be reduced (i.e., there is more number of cracks) when LC droplets are added. A pairwise comparison (using Dunn's procedure with a Bonferroni correction) of the proteins in the presence of LC droplets reveals that BSA still has significantly larger $x_c$ compared to the other two protein drops (Lys and Myo). In other words, LC droplets do not have a significant effect in terms of $x_c$ distributions on BSA even though the morphology shows a reduced $x_c$ when LC is added (Fig.~\ref{fig3}f,l). The middle panel of Fig.~\ref{fig4} further reveals that the presence of LC considerably reduces the $x_c$ distributions (a large number of uniformed cracks) in all the proteins, however, the difference is found to be statistically significant in both Lys and Myo, but not in the BSA. Finally, we examined the way (inclusion of) LC droplets affect the $x_c$ distributions in the rim and the central regions of all the protein drops (right panel of Fig.~\ref{fig4}). The results confirm that the presence of LC considerably reduces the $x_c$ in the central region of all the proteins. However, this reduction of $x_c$ is observed to be significant in both Lys and Myo (but not in BSA). This outcome is evident as we have already seen that LC does not affect the BSA (in terms of $x_c$ reduction). The quantification of $x_c$ and the outcome of the statistical tests provide a convincing indication about the effect of LC on the proteins (under study) which otherwise is slightly misleading if the morphological observations are considered alone.

Following these findings discussed above, a physical mechanism is proposed. Our findings confirm that Lys and Myo follow a similar process of crack formation, unlike BSA. Each domain in these two proteins is buckled up, and most of the LC droplets are moved underneath the film from the cracks through the capillary action. The dark region at the center of each of these regions is the film attached to the coverslip. In contrast, BSA shows a radial defect (four-fan brushes) which is commonly observed at the LC-air interface confirming that the LC droplets are spread at the top of the BSA film \cite{pal2019comparative}.

\section{Conclusions}
Sessile drop drying is popularly used to explore the self-assembly and the phase separation of the particles in the colloidal drops. In this paper, we proposed an automated image-based mechanism to calculate birefringence of the optically active material and can be applied to any such colloidal drops. Further, the proposed semi-automated image processing mechanism of quantifying crack patterns can be applied to any drying system (with similar crack patterns) helping to understand the underlying physical mechanism. These methods have a broad range of applications quantifying image morphology in an efficient and economical way.

Dive vessel suffers engine failure in Pentland Firth and requires a tow.
Longhope lifeboat was requested to launch tonight 6 March 2017 by UK Coastguard. The volunteer crew were alerted at 19.03 and the lifeboat was underway by 19.20.
MV Karin, a 23m dive vessel with 3 crew on board, suffered engine failure in the Pentland Firth and was drifting east of Stroma. A nearby fishing boat the Vest Viking altered course and was standing by. The lifeboat arrived on scene at 19.44 and established a tow.
Sea conditions were moderate as they made their way back to Orkney. During the tow the crew of MV Karin managed to restart the engines and proceed independently. The tow was released and the lifeboat escorted the boat back to the more sheltered waters of Scapa Flow.

I still have the terminal window open where I ran dpkg --get-selections | grep deinstall both before (85 packages) and after (2614 packages) the accidental command.
What I need now is to subtract the first (old) deinstall list from the second (current) one and mark all those packages as wanted again. Setting them to manual will not be good though, as that would affect hundreds of libraries which make no sense if installed without their applications. So we have to set it to auto and then I probably have to manually find out the top level packages to be selected as manual. Or can something help me there?
Info: I have two separate text files, one containing the first --get-selections output, one the second. They contain only lines with the syntax:
package-name         deinstall

where package-name is, well, the actual package name, and the space in between is an undefined number of tabs.
Update: I just found the output of dpkg --get-selections from before the accident without any grep filtering! Only two packages were installed after that, I can fix them manually later.
Please help me to restore my previous package selections!

A: To set all packages currently selected to deinstall back to install, you run the following two commands:
sudo dpkg --get-selections | awk '/deinstall/ {printf "%s\t%s\n",$1,"install"}' > packages
sudo dpkg --set-selections < packages

The first command finds all packages marked with deinstall and writes a list of packages like this
package-name         install

The second command corrects the packages.

If the full output of dpkg --get-selections from before the accident is given, you can simply restore all selections with the command
sudo dpkg --set-selections < packages

where packages is the name of the file holding the old output.

Buzzwords: Unpack
To analyze something in detail by breaking it down into its constituent parts
Back Article Jul 28, 2020 By Jessica Laskey
\ ˌən-ˈpak \
If you've been to an academic or business conference fairly recently, you've probably heard a professor or other erudite colleague suggest "unpacking" something, though they probably don't mean unzipping a suitcase and removing its contents — unless they've lost their flash drive in there.
The word "unpack" has been in use for more than 500 years in a literal sense, but sometime in the 16th century when it was still fairly new, writers and philosophers began to use the word to describe unpacking more than just luggage. The word started to show up in literature to mean confessing one's inner feelings — as in Act 2, Scene 2 of Shakespeare's "Hamlet," when the titular character "Must, like a whore, unpack my heart with words."
While Shakespeare may have given the word literary currency in the early 1600s, some contemporary audiences are not as fond of its usage in this way.
"My own gut sense is that there's something corporate about the word that doesn't fit in a literary setting," says Naomi J. Williams, a writer and editor who has taught creative writing at UC Davis, Sacramento City College and the low-residency MFA program at Ashland University in Ohio. (She's also the author of the 2015 historical fiction novel "Landfalls.")
Williams is right — the word seems to have fallen out of favor in literature during the last century and has instead planted itself squarely in the purview of academia. William's husband, Dan Fuchs, an attorney for the State of California specializing in water law, agrees, saying he almost never hears the word in legal settings. Because there are very specific protocols in law for analyzing an issue (statutory language, case law, etc.), "people don't really need to 'unpack' things so much as go through the clearly laid-out steps in the proper order." Instead, he feels the word is "primarily an academic rather than corporate word," citing the example of a professor mentioning a famous quote or well-known term and "unpacking" it — discussing its larger historical, socioeconomic or philosophical implications. He says that though the word is often overused, it can still be useful in the right context.

With the advent of computers in the middle of the last century, the word gained yet another definition that's almost as literal as its first. Merriam-Webster describes "computer data that is converted from a compressed format to an uncompressed and usable format is said to be unpacked," or broken down into smaller, usable pieces for easier comprehension.
Though there are people who like to see the word abandoned — it made Michigan's Lake Superior State University's 43rd annual List of Words Banished from the Queen's English for Mis-Use, Over-Use and General Uselessness in 2017 — it still has value in business or academic contexts when the comprehension of a subject or computer file requires a detailed examination of its constituent parts.
Or when you need to find your flash drive at the bottom of your suitcase.

Buzzwords: Rightsizing
The process of hiring, firing or reassigning employees to help a business run as efficiently as possible
Rightsizing is the Goldilocks of the business world. With the ever-changing economic landscape, organizations are always on the hunt for the perfect balance — retaining a workforce that's not too big, not too small, but just right.
May 12, 2020 Jessica Laskey
Buzzwords: Solopreneur
An independent business owner who runs all aspects of the business on their own, without employees
Some choose solopreneurship because of the flexibility it provides versus the traditional corporate career path. Others become an expert in their field while working as an employee, then venture out independently to provide their services.
Apr 9, 2020 Vanessa Labi
Buzzwords: Onboarding
The process by which a new employee is integrated into a company, from learning where the bathroom is to understanding the company culture
If you've ever started a new job and were told you were going to be "onboarded," you may have had nightmarish visions of being connected up to the Borg or having your retinas scanned. (No? Just me? Maybe I watch too much science fiction.)
Feb 4, 2020 Jessica Laskey
Buzzwords: Best Practice
A method that establishes a standard way of doing things as a means of driving higher performance, success, ideal behavior or ethics.
Professionals use the term as a guiding principle or methodology for consistency and to drive the greatest results.

Q: Random string generator C# I have made a simple number generator, and I have a question: is it possible for the generator to eject "red", "blue", "green", " yellow" and "white" instead of the numbers 1-5?
namespace zufallsgenerator
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        Random r = new Random();

        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        private void btnWhlie_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int summe = 0, z;

            lblAnzeige.Text = " ";

           while (summe <= 0)
           {
                z = r.Next(1, 6);
                summe = summe + z;
           }
           lblAnzeige.Text += summe + "\n";
        }
    }
}

A: You could use an enum.
Define something  like
enum Color
{
   Red,
   Green,
   Blue
}

Then you can cast your int to this:
Color color = (Color)r.Next(1, 6)

And, if you wish
Text = color.ToString();

A: If you get output like 1-5 you could create string[] containing 5 elements
string[] colors = new string[] { "red", "blue", "green", " yellow", "white" }
And instead of retrieving r.Next( 1, 6 ) you could retrieve colors[ r.Next( 0, 5 ) ] (because string array is 0-indexed, changed the min and max value).

A: You could create a simple array and access it with a randomly generated index, e.g.:
var r = new Random();
string[] colors = {"red", "blue", "green", "yellow", "white"};
var random_color = colors[r.Next(colors.Length)];

A: Taking Xi Huan's answer, you can make it a bit prettier using an extension method:
public static T Next<T>(this System.Random Random, params T[] List)
{
    if(List.Length==0)
        return default(T);
    return List[Random.Next(0, List.Length)];
}

Then calling it is just:
var r=new System.Random();
var randon_color = r.Next("red", "blue", "green", "yellow", "white");

A: What I would do is create a list of strings. Then put the random number as i. So like
 List<string> list1 = new List<string>{"red", "blue", "green"}; then use your random number like this to call a random element of it. list1[randomNumber];

A: Define an array with the posible desired output values and instead of concatenating summe to text, add YourArrayOfNamedValues[summe]

Bitcoin's recent breakout above $7,000 is dominating the crypto news cycle, but behind these numbers are other actions worth examining. Notably, although altcoin prices have been volatile, altcoin development and adoption has been surging. Major platforms such as Dash, NEM, Bitshares and Neo are quietly taking steps designed to bring them into the mainstream. Given their growth, it is clear that, despite its tremendous rise in valuation, Bitcoin will be far from the only significant digital asset moving forward.
Like many altcoins, Dash has experienced declines across the board over the last eight weeks. It is currently trading at $270, down from $400 in late August. It is also significantly down against Bitcoin. Nevertheless, in many ways Dash is in a very strong position. Dash can now be purchased with fiat on a number of exchanges, such as CEX.io and Quoinex. Dash is also creating partnerships with a wide range of crypto services, all with the stated aim of making it a commonly used currency. For example, in October, Wirex added Dash to its payment system, making it possible to use the crypto anywhere Visa is accepted.
A closer look at Dash's growth reveals that it is usually a parallel option to Bitcoin in the crypto space. Notably, most Bitcoin ATMs also offer Dash, and most crypto payment systems are quickly implementing altcoin capabilities, with Dash as a key Bitcoin alternative. Given that Dash is designed specifically as a currency, and that it has many features Bitcoin lacks (such as scalability and anonymity), it should be considered a major competitor to Bitcoin, despite its much smaller market cap and fiat value.
Many multi-functional crypto platforms are also growing rapidly, despite recent price declines. These platforms are similar to Ethereum in that they offer smart contracts and the ability to create custom tokens. NEM is trading at $.16, down fifty percent since early September. However, NEM adoption and development continues to grow. the NEM.io Foundation has announced a $40 million expansion plan, and it is building a blockchain center in Malaysia to promote global innovation. The foundation is also working with Blockchain Global to build a cryptocurrency exchange based on the NEM platform.
Bitshares and Neo are also rapidly establishing a much stronger presence in the crypto space, despite significant declines in value and market share over the past few weeks. The Bitshares decentralized exchange continues to grow, as many see it as a superior alternative to its centralized counterparts. China-based Neo continues to rapidly expand, forging a wide range of partnerships across financial and business sectors. Other platforms such as Iota, Qtum, and Nxt are also moving ahead.
Current valuations and market caps may be important to short-term traders, but given the tremendous volatility of crypto prices, it is foolhardy to equate a cryptocurrency's true value with its fiat trading price. Understanding the core features of a specific crypto, its adoption rate, and its unique strengths and weaknesses provides a far more accurate answer. History has demonstrated that when revolutionary technology is introduced, the public usually favors the most useful platform. When viewed in this context, it becomes clear that many altcoins are substantially undervalued.
Bitcoin's incredible price increase is a clear testament to the public's growing acceptance of cryptocurrency. Of equal importance is the solid foundation being laid by altcoins in preparation for their own mass adoption. These developments are playing a key role in moving the blockchain revolution forward.
For Dash the road towards mainstream adoption is a major update named Dash Evolution, that should hit mainnet mid 2018.
Evolution's mission is to make digital cash easy to use and access for all users, even those who aren't technologically savvy. Anybody will be able to setup an account on the blockchain, add contacts and pay them by name. Purchases from websites or mobile apps will be simple, requiring only a single click.
Evolution will introduce a new type of light wallet which will have SPV security and browser compatibility. This wallet will connect directly to our P2P network of over 4,000 nodes.
In Evolution, you will be able to connect directly with merchants to make purchases or even setup auto debits to pay for subscription services. Every merchant that integrates Dash will be searchable on the blockchain, and you will be able to rate purchases so the community can decide which vendors are providing quality products and services.
Add Dash payments to your site or mobile app in minutes using a simple, decentralized API. Forget about complex infrastructure or relying on third parties to handle your customer's payments and build direct relationships with your customers using the blockchain.

Cory Wells (born Emil Lewandowski; February 5, 1941 – October 20, 2015) was an American singer, best known as one of the three lead vocalists in the band Three Dog Night.

Early life
Wells came from a musical family and began playing in Buffalo, New York-area bands in his teens. His biological father, who was married to someone other than his mother, died when Cory was a small child, leaving his mother to struggle financially until she eventually married. She gave Cory her birth surname, although Cory eventually changed his surname to Wells (a shortened version of his birth father's surname, Wellsley). His full stage name "Cory Wells" was suggested by The Enemys' first manager, Gene Jacobs, who had a son named Cory.

Having survived childhood in a low-income, blue-collar neighborhood and an even more brutal home environment fueled by an abusive stepfather, this according to manager Joel Cohen's band biography, Three Dog Night And Me, Wells joined the United States Air Force directly out of high school. While in the Air Force, he formed a band of interracial musical performers, inspired by his boyhood love of a similar popular band called The Del-Vikings, who had a national hit with the doo-wop song, "Come Go with Me".

Career
Following his military tour of duty, Wells returned to Buffalo and was asked to join a band named the Vibratos. Gene Jacobs, the brother-in-law of the Vibratos guitar player, Mike Lustan, suggested to him that the Vibratos travel to California if they were serious about making it in music. They took his advice and changed the name of the band to "The Enemys." They soon began working the clubs in Los Angeles, San Diego, Las Vegas and Sacramento, and they became the house band at the Whisky a Go Go. They were also featured in the television shows The Beverly Hillbillies, Burke's Law, Riot on Sunset Strip, and the film Harper, with Paul Newman. While at the Whisky a Go Go, Cher asked the band to tour with Sonny & Cher. It was on this tour that Wells met Danny Hutton, a former songwriter/performer for Hanna-Barbera Productions who became his future partner in the rock band Three Dog Night. The Enemys had minor hits with recordings of "Hey Joe" and "Sinner Man". Wells moved to Phoenix in 1967 where he formed The Cory Wells Blues Band, whose bass player was future Three Dog Night bass player, Joe Schermetzler (stage name Joe Schermie). In 1968, Wells returned to Hollywood where he "couch-surfed" while Danny Hutton worked to convince him of the feasibility of forming a group with three lead singers and a back-up band.

Three Dog Night
Hutton and Wells formed Three Dog Night in 1968. They found a third lead singer in Chuck Negron, whom Hutton had met at a Hollywood party.  Hutton, Wells, and Negron met The Beach Boys' Brian Wilson, and they recorded demos under the name "Redwood" with Wilson as producer. The sessions produced a potential single, "Time to Get Alone," but Beach Boy member Mike Love wanted to save the song for the next Beach Boys album. Having perfected their three-part harmony sound, Wells, Hutton and Negron added a four-piece backing group consisting of guitarist Michael Allsup, organist Jimmy Greenspoon, bassist Joe Schermie, and drummer Floyd Sneed. The group began performing as Three Dog Night in 1968, and became one of the most successful bands of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Wells sang the lead vocal on Three Dog Night's Billboard No. 1 hit song "Mama Told Me (Not to Come)". He said that Randy Newman, who wrote the song, later called him on the phone and said: "I just want to thank you for putting my kids through college."

Unlike many other rock musicians of the day, Wells managed to abstain from alcohol and other drugs. Also, he didn't squander his earnings on the lavish lifestyles of many other successful rock stars; rather, he chose to live a somewhat more moderate existence. After Three Dog Night broke up in 1976, Wells tried a solo career, recording the album Touch Me for A&M Records in 1978.  Wells helped re-launch Three Dog Night in the mid-1980s, recording an EP called "It's a Jungle". A falling out with Negron left Hutton and Wells with the name "Three Dog Night" as an entity, and the pair (along with original member Mike Allsup) toured regularly each year.  Original member Jimmy Greenspoon also toured with Three Dog Night until his diagnosis of metastatic melanoma in late 2014, which led to his death in October 2015.

Death
Wells died in his sleep on October 20, 2015, at Brooks Memorial Hospital in Dunkirk, New York at the age of 74. His family later confirmed he had been fighting multiple myeloma, a form of blood cancer.

I added a "You Might Also Like…" at the bottom of most of the reviews, which includes more reviews from the series, news stories relating to the comic and any other related articles. Also, to make it one click faster, comics that have only one review need only to be clicked once in the "Review" section and you will be taken right there.
According to a very helpful contact form, most people don't like to click multiple times to get to a review, so I thought about having it be so you can just click on "Reviews" and then instead of just posting the cover of the first issue of a series which leads to snippets of every issue, I was planning on putting the cover of each issue I review on that page so you just have to click once, but plan on keeping the scrolling option will always give you the ability to enjoy the old format. This idea I'm still not sure about, so I'm hoping to rely on the feedback of anyone willing to give it.
I'm also still working on a scoring page and plan on adding a section where I will be collecting these updates.
Please tell me what you think of these new ideas and the website at large. I appreciate any feedback, so never be afraid to tell me what you think!
Here's to 2013... when is the appropriate time to stop saying that?
I like the new "archives" in general and the short links to old reviews, Tumblr isn't really my cup of tea.

Twitter Must Really Have An Effect On Elections – Nse Ikpe Etim Reacts To FG Lifting Twitter Ban
Nollywood star Nse Ikpe Etim has reacted to the lifting of the Twitter ban by the federal government 7 months after the microblogging platform was suspended by the government. The TV star took to the app to share her thoughts on the issue.
The federal government said it lifted the suspension of the social media giant's operations in the country after reaching an agreement that includes legal registration of operations, taxation, and managing prohibited publications in line with Nigerian laws. She shared that the app has a great effect on the elections so the government has to unban it to use it for election purposes.
Several Nigerians also shared the same thoughts as they noted that there is a political motivation behind the move and the resumption of political campaigns ahead of the 2023 general elections is the major reason for the lifting of the ban.
