A circuit for removing the constant DC voltage from an input signal so that just the AC portion can be processed.
The generation of unwanted additional frequencies in a wanted signal, caused by sampling the signal at too low a frequency.
To judge how well a particular low pass filer response will act as an anti aliasing filter, you need to know its stopband attenuation and its stop band ratio.
To calculate the number of bits of protection that the filter will provide against aliasing, divide the stopband attenuation of the the filter (in dB) by six. This number does not have to be equal to the number of bits of resolution of your sampling system but its a good starting point.
To calculate the lowest sampling ratio which you can safely use before aliases occur in your data, just add one to the stopband ratio of the filter. This criterion does not provide unconditional protection against all aliasing but is sufficient in most cases.
For instance, a filter giving 72dB rejection at two times the cutoff will provide 12 bits of protection and can be used with sample rates of three times cutoff (or higher).
The ratio between the output and input signal levels of a signal handling device. Usually expressed in dB.
A filter in which a frequency region with a low attenuation lies between frequency regions in which attenuation is high. Simple bandpass filters can be made by connecting a highpass filter and low pass filter in series.
Sometimes called a band-elimination filters. A filter in which a frequency region with a high attenuation lies between two frequency regions in which attenuation is low. Simple bandstop filters can be made by connecting a highpass filter and a lowpass filter in parallel in the appropriate way.
Note - in many applications where a linear phase filter is required the Kemo response 41 may be a better choice.
A widely known class of general purpose filter responses.
Note - in many applications Kemo responses 41 General purpose and 01 anti-aliasing could be better choices.
The ratio betweeen the lowest and highest cutoff frequencies that a particular model of a filter product can be set to.
A log ratio between signals. Typically the ratio between input and outputs in an electronic system.
The deciBell is 1/10th of a Bell, and used in the early Bell telephone systems as a measurement of power.
The ratio of the frequencies (or frequency differences) which specify the extremes of the passband and stopband of a filter.
The ratio between an input signal and all the unwanted extra signal present at the same time.
Measured in dB per octave. The slope of a straight line connecting the two points which specify the extremes of the passband and the stopband and stopband of a lowpass or highpass filter. The higher the effective slope, the sharper is the filter.
A type of mathematical function which lends its name to a class of filters (sometimes called Cauer filters) which provide maximum effective slope for a given amount of ripple.
A type of filter with quite good overshoot performance but more stopband attenuation than a Bessel filter.
A source of operating power for a popular type of signal transducer.
The order of a filter is equal to the number of significant poles in the mathematical function describing its frequency response.
What you send to Kemo when you want some filters.
The amount by which the output of a filter exceeds the correct final value when fed with a sudden step change in the input.
A filter feature which allows the amplitude of a filter response of a filter to be altered to reduce or eliminate overshoot.
The ratio between the gain of a filter in its stopband to the gain in its passband. Usually expressed in dB.
The variation of the filter gain across the passband. Usually expressed in dB.
A measurement of the input signal at an instant in time.
Also called total error. The amount by which a filtered signal differs from a pure version of that signal simply delayed in time.


Darcia Narvaez, an Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Notre Dame, recently wrote in Psychology Today how excessive crying out could be dangerous for children, leading to a lifetime of harm.
These early experiences are also "downloaded" to form the templates for a variety of subsequent self-functions, including sense of agency, affect-regulation, and sense of empowerment, which are crucial assets for recall during times of psychological trauma.

Live in a high-theft area?
Burglar alarms not always required.
Up to £750 for replacment security features following theft of keys.
Often the most trendy and wealthy residential areas are those targeted by burglars. Homes in these areas, thieves assume, contain a lot of jewellery, gadgets, antiques, artwork and other desirable valuables.
If you live in a postcode with a high theft rate you'll probably find it difficult to find suitable home insurance. Mainstream insurance companies will either refuse to provide a quote or quote a very expensive price with a very long list of exclusions and conditions. However, HomeProtect can help you.
Average claim – theft of belongings and buildings damage caused by burglary: £1,850.
Average claim – theft of bicycles: £550.
Average claim – theft of itemised valuables from home: £715.
This information relates to average claims resulting from forcible entry into the property and theft of belongings (data from theft claims raised by HomeProtect customers 2012-2015). But some of our customers have had the misfortune of being burgled and having the buildings badly damaged and the majority of their belongings stolen, costing thousands of pounds to replace! With the right policy in place, HomeProtect will be there to help pick up the pieces if this happens to you.
Learn how to keep burglars at bay with these easy-to-implement tips.
Fitting secure locks to your main external doors (5 lever deadlocks conforming to BS3621).
Fitting key operated window locks on all windows.
Investing in a safe and storing your jewellery and other small valuables in there at all times.
Install a monitored alarm at the property.
Install security lighting at vulnerable points around the property.
Request a property security audit, either contact your local police station or a private security firm who will recommend any other steps you specifically need to take at your property to deter thieves.
Can I get contents insurance if I life in a high theft area?
Do I live in a high theft area?
You are probably aware of whether the area or even the street you live in is a high theft area! Homes in wealthy areas are often targeted more than those deprived areas due to the value of the items they are likely to contain, especially in the run-up to Christmas. And be aware that having a luxury car on your drive can make your home – as well as the car itself – a target.
There are a lot of statistics available on the Government's data hub where you can look up data on different types of crime where you live. You can also get specific crime statistics – including burglary – here.
Note: At HomeProtect we use a range of data when calculating premiums and our assessment of risk may vary from that you can find in Government data when calculating premiums online.
Will my home insurance cost more if I live in a high theft area?
Your home insurance premium depends on a large number of factors including the value of your contents, the types of locks on your doors, whether your home is occupied during the day, and also where it is. If you live in an area which has an above-average burglary rate, then your premium is likely to be higher that it would be for an otherwise identical situation in a low-theft area.
Am I covered if I don't have an alarm?
Where we require you to have an alarm because you live in a high theft area, there will be an endorsement that states you need to fit one within 30 days of the start of the policy. If this endorsement is included on your policy, you will only be covered for theft after this period if you have had an alarm fitted and it is in use.
We needed a very specific policy which Home Protect provided at a reasonable price. Other providers either did not offer a solution at all or were very expensive.

Q: dojo datagrid change cell types on the fly Is it possible to change the type of cell (i.e., from Select to Bool) in the cell of a data grid once the grid has been rendered?
Thanks.

A: I don't think there is support for this specific functionality, but you could try declaring both the bool and select in the structure of your grid, and choose to show or hide the appropriate column(grid.layout.setColumnVisibility) based on whatever your condition is for exchanging them.

It is no secret that you can teleoperate robotic hands in various ways. In fact, we have covered a bunch of projects that involve controlling robots using brainwaves and hand gestures. This video shows an EMG-based approach to teleoperation of a robotic hand by decoding the grasping intention at an early stage.
Electrodes and a Cyberglove were used to record muscle activity and finger movement during reach-to-grasp motions. The accuracy is about 90% according to the researchers. More info is available here.

Launching new cycle policy at Hellesdon High[1].jpg
Police tell children to wear high-vis gear or get off their bikes and walk
Norfolk Constabulary launches initiative in response to local residents' concerns...
by Simon_MacMichael
Wed, Jan 20, 2010 11:01
Children at a school in Norwich face being ordered by police to get off their bikes and walk on the pavement unless they are wearing reflective safety gear during the hours of darkness, although there is no legal requirement for cyclists, whatever their age, to do so.
Last Friday, pupils at Hellesdon High School were given reflective snap wraps to wear and stickers for their bikes as part of an initiative launched by Norfolk Constabulary after local residents complained about children riding without reflective clothing or lights at community policing meetings.
According to local newspaper The Advertiser, the Hellesdon and Horsford Neighbourhood Policing Team, which has launched the initiative, will be telling children seen cycling without reflective clothing or stickers on their bikes to dismount and walk instead. Police will also contact parents or carers to inform them that their child had put themselves at risk on the road.
PCSO Chris Rolph told the Norwich Advertiser: "The purpose is to work with the school and pupils to reduce the risk of being injured by not being seen by other road users.
"We were getting reports from worried members of the public not being able to see youngsters due to the colour of clothing they were wearing and not having any bicycle lights," he continued.
"The school has been very proactive and taken responsibility to launch this scheme which I hope others will follow.
"Ultimately the youngster's safety is paramount, with such a simple preventative measure to reduce the chances of injury I would encourage anyone to adopt it, " he concluded.
Hellesdon High School's deputy head, Alastair Ogle, supported the move, saying: "We haven't had any serious incidents involving cyclists and we would like that to continue."
He added:
"This scheme will hopefully remind all students about the dangers of riding a bike in a busy area such as Hellesdon and may even encourage more to cycle now that we are able to provide items to help them be seen more easily by other road users."
The school told road.cc that it does not currently offer Bikeability training to its pupils, whose ages range from 11 to 18.
But cyclists' organisation CTC, which supports parents, pupils and teachers wanted to ride to school through its Right To Ride To School campaign, believes that the initiative is sending out the wrong message.
CTC Campaigns Coordinator Debra Rolfe told road.cc: "While it is great the police and the school are taking an interest in cyclists' safety, CTC is very concerned that asking children to stop cycling just because they are not wearing reflective clothing sends out completely the wrong message.
"By stopping the children they are merely blaming the victims rather than dealing directly with what causes the majority of cycling crashes - bad driving. CTC Campaigns for more traffic policing to make our roads safer for all. Cyclists are not required by law to wear reflective clothing, whereas drivers are required to obey the speed limit.
Ms Rolfe added; "If the school is concerned about cyclists safety, I would strongly suggest they offer Bikeability training to all pupils, as it would equip the children with the skills to deal with the demands of today's roads and they should also ask the council to introduce lower speed limits near the school."
According to the Road Vehicle Lighting Regulations 1989 (amended in 1994 and 2005), bicycles being ridden between sunset and sunrise must be fitted with a white front and red rear lights and a red rear reflector, and bicycles made after October 1985 must also have amber pedal reflectors. There is, however, no legal requirement to wear reflective clothing.
The Cycle Safety page on the Norfolk Constabulary website advises cyclists to "always use bike lights when travelling in the dark or in conditions of reduced visibility," but makes no mention of wearing high-visibility clothing or other reflective equipment.

Supreme to become the coolest streetwear brand
Source : Solaris
It was 1994, when James Jebbia opened the doors to his Supreme skate store on Lafayette Street in downtown Manhattan, in its own way also an incredible NY moment.
Without realizing it, Jebbia managed to bottle the energy of the city and the style of the streets with his skate and fashion brand.
Throughout its 18 years, Supreme has defined and refined what it means to be cool. The brand's effortless logo – a Barbara Kruger-influenced red box surrounding a white block typeface – is an iconic emblem for a worldwide gang as recognizable as the LV Monogram or Hells Angels' rocker for those who know.

Source : Hypebeast
Jebbia's personal style is understated, neat and crisp, today's outfit being a grade-four buzz cut, worn with a button-down Oxford shirt and dark jeans. His accent has a transatlantic shade, yet is still resolutely British. Born in the States to a British mother and American father who worked in the US Air Force, James and his family moved to Britain when he was just 18 months old, before he gravitated back to New York aged 19.
"I came over here with $100; it was 1983 and I just ended up staying. New York at that time was very inexpensive and it was very easy to get a job. We lived on Staten Island and you could get cheap rent. It was a good time to be in New York," James said.
Sitting behind his desk in the Supreme office in Soho, James' work space is bright and airy, with KA WS artwork and a framed photo of the Godfather of Soul, James Brown, sitting on the bonnet of his silver ghost Rolls Royce with an MVP license plate hanging on the walls. On the floor in the corner sits a collection of new boot samples and a pair of legendary rapper and graffiti artist Rammellzee's 3-D tracers pieces.
James' office is located above the space where he first found work in fashion: a store then known as Parachute, where he was taken under the wing of its owner, Morgan. "He was a good boss, a real mentor. Parachute was a bit futuristic, it was kind of cool; Gary Numan came in and Michael Jackson wore the leather jacket with the big epaulettes. It was a great time but I just wanted to do more," he told GQ.
With his girlfriend at the time, James started a market stall on Broadway and West 4th, making and selling backpacks. In 1989, he opened his first seminal store, Union, on Spring Street.
The key stores then around the Downtown area were X-Large, Stüssy, Triple Five Soul and Union. While James was trying to stock Stüssy, a chance meeting with Shawn Stüssy led to James running the Stüssy store on Prince Street. "I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing without what Shawn has done," James admitted.
Shawn Stüssy was the forefather of what would become streetwear as we now know it.
With an eye on the skate and surf cults, Shawn created a style with Stüssy that was coveted globally not just as clothing but as a way to join Shawn's posse, the Stüssy World Tribe. Setting up teams in NY, London, LA and Tokyo, his collaborators included the brains and brilliance of designers Paul Mittleman, Hiroshi Fujiwara and distributor Michael Kopelman. From hip-hop kids to ravers, surf dudes and grebos, they were all drawn to Shawn's baggy denims and signature hand-written emblems.
SEE ALSO : Louis Vuitton x Supreme returns in Japan
When Shawn moved on from Stüssy and sold his share of the business, Jebbia made the decision to launch Supreme. Everybody who worked in the store was a skateboarder. And there were a lot of young people starting to skate and they would gravitate towards the store because of the crew who worked there, so the store became like a hangout.
The architecture of the Supreme stores and their sales assistants have always played a crucial role in establishing the brand identity, with the staff bringing the ubiquitous, middle-finger-to-the-world attitude. The shop kids were gnarly and raw and generated an intimidating, real vibe where skate videos played all day and the freshest hip-hop mixtapes blasted -out on to the sidewalk. But such intimidation never discouraged customers from visiting.
Gravitating to the store were a host of locals and downtown rebels. There was Justin Pierce (Casper in Kids), skateboarders including Harold Hunter and Jason Dill, artist and illustrator Gio Estevez (who was also the store manager) and Aaron Bondaroff, CEO of the anything brand, co-founder of the OHWOW art collective and model in this feature.
There was also the art and photography crowd, such as Ari Marcopoulous, Kenneth Cappello and Terry Richardson. Ari and Terry's photography established an identity for Supreme, their images becoming synonymous with the brand. Ari's documentation of the mid-Nineties scene forms a collaged backdrop at Supreme's stores in Tokyo and London, while Terry and Kenneth have shot lookbooks for the brand and fly-poster campaigns and T-shirts that have seen the legendary box-logo tee worn by Lou Reed, Kermit the Frog, The Diplomats, Raekwon, Lady Gaga, Mike Tyson and the latest with rappers Three 6 Mafia.
The word-of-mouth excitement among guys interested in stylish clothes is – in this day and age – breath-taking to see. The customers know that each product comes in such limited quantities that once a particular item has gone that is it.
The Supreme look is delivered between the styles continuously appropriated by the hip-hop and skate worlds: Ivy League, collegiate, military and sportswear themes, denim, checks, plaids and stripes, alongside a classic workwear influence. The collection weighs in with a referenced knowledge that goes into fabric, cut, details and durability, making each piece often feel and look like perfectly preserved vintage.
SEE ALSO : Louis Vuitton and Supreme to host first collaboration pop up in Sydney
Over the years, Supreme has collaborated with (among many others) Levi's, Vans, The North Face, Nike, Comme Des Gargons, Adam Kimmel, Malcolm McLaren, A Bathing Ape and W Taps on their fashion – and skateboard graphics with Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons, Takashi Murakami, Harmony Korine and most recently Jake and Dinos Chapman.
As James expands the business with additional stores around the world, (LA, London, Nagoya, Osaka, and Fukuoka, with the third Tokyo store recently opening in Shibuya), he is quick to establish that his ambition for his company is to maintain its integrity. "If I was to stop working tomorrow, I would be like, OK. I did what I wanted to do; I did what I liked, what I really believe in, and I'm fine with that. In an ideal world, we can just remain a small but tight business that grows naturally."
James' philosophy behind Supreme is straightforward: "We just want to make really great-looking clothes that are well-made, fit well that you can skate in."

Host transcription factors exploited by HIV-1. HIV-1, the cause of AIDS, has infected over 40 million individuals world-wide. Although vast improvements in therapy have been developed over the last decade, HIV-1 cannot be totally eliminated from the host due to its ability to enter a resting or latent state in CD4 T cells. Because HIV-1 relies on host transcription factors to replicate, we are exploring the role of the calcium activated nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) transcription factors in regulating HIV-1 transcription. We and others have shown that the CsA-sensitive NFAT proteins bind to the proximal HIV-1 promoter/long terminal repeat (LTR) in vitro and up-regulate HIV-1 transcription. We have further demonstrated that NFAT proteins bind to the integrated HIV-1 LTR in primary human CD4 T cells in vivo by chromatin immunoprecipitation, and this binding is disrupted by the regulatory T cell transcription factor, FOXP3. In addition, we are attempting to exploit NFAT activation as a means of activating HIV-1 LTR activity in latently infected cells. Recently, we identified a novel binding site for the c-maf transcription factor located adjacent to the proximal NFAT sites in the HIV-1 LTR. Our studies reveal synergistic transcriptional activation and increased infection of HIV-1 by c-maf, NFAT2, and NFΚB p65 in primary human IL-4-producing CD4 T cells. Thus, c-maf will likely be a novel therapeutic target in the treatment of HIV-1.
Genetic defects in lymphocyte cytolysis in macrophage activation syndrome. Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is a hyper-inflammatory immune response in children and adults that is often triggered by certain infectious (e.g. EBV), autoimmune (e.g. lupus), autoinflammatory (e.g. Still disease), and oncologic (e.g. T cell leukemia) disorders. MAS results in pro-inflammatory cytokine storm leading to pancytopenia, coagulopathy, central nervous system dysfunction, and multi-organ system failure. MAS is frequently lethal like its cousin disease familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (fHLH). fHLH is uniformly fatal if not treated aggressively and typically presents in the first few months of life in infants with bi-allelic genetic defects in one of the proteins involved in perforin mediated cytolysis by natural killer (NK) cells and CD8 cytotoxic lymphocytes. Recently, mono-allelic (heterozygous) mutations in cytolytic pathway proteins (e.g. perforin, Munc13-4, Rab27a, etc.) have been identified in a substantial percentage of MAS patients presenting beyond infancy. In our MAS patient cohort, we have identified several mutations, including novel mutants, in a variety of cytolytic pathway genes. Using lentiviral transduction of mutant and wild-type genes into NK cells, we demonstrate decreased cytolytic activity by over-expression of the mutant genes, suggesting a partial dominant-negative effect. These studies suggest that there are likely genetic predispositions to develop MAS, and we are currently exploring the novel mutations and their pathophysiological consequences on lymphocyte mediated cytolytic function.

Q: Bootstrap Carousel Disables Navigation Bar After Transition I'm using the bootstrap 4 carousel in rails 5 as a background of my site. I have a navigation bar with pills, which links to different parts of the page. Everything works when the page loads until the first image transitions to the next one.  Then the pills on the navigation bar disappear and when I click the links they don't navigate to the specific part of the page that it should.
I think this might be due to the fact that when the image transitions it transitions not just the background image, but the whole content too (even though the content remains the same), and it's still linking to the initial page's content.  (And so it can't seem to re-link to the "new" content.)
Here is my code:
index.html.erb
<% image_array = [] %>
 <% @images.each do |image| %>
     <% image.slice! 'app/assets/images/' %>
     <% image_array.push(image_path(image)) %>
 <% end %>

        <div class="carousel-item active" style="background: url(<%= image_path image_array[0] %>)
            no-repeat center center fixed;
            background-position: 50% 0;
            height: 100%;
            -webkit-background-size: cover;

A: I figured out that it was because I had the content inside of the carousel part, such that it was rendering the content every time.  I took out the content, but when I did that the background didn't show up.  It seems that the 100% cover of the background applies to the content that it would contain, so I just adjusted the background image to a specific pixel height so that it would fill the whole screen. (This was a tedious method and I'm not sure if there is a better way, but this worked after playing around with it.)

Simhaa prefers story over directors
Mar 14, 2014 IANS
Chennai, March 14 (IANS) Actor Simhaa, who gives prime importance to the story of a film, says he doesn't mind working with any director - new or seasoned, as long as the story impresses him.
"If I really like the story of a film, I don't mind who directs it. I never choose a film because it is being directed by someone popular or a debutant. My preference always goes towards the story of a film," Simhaa told IANS.
He has teamed up with director Karthik Subbaraj for the second time because nobody else offered him work.
After "Pizza", Simhaa worked with Karthik in yet-to-be-released "Jigarthanda".
"There has been talk that I'm only working with new filmmakers or the ones with whom I have done short films in the past. I have been struggling in the industry since 2005 and have been offered films only by these directors such as Karthik," he said.
"If other directors are willing to offer me work, why will I not work with them? I have known Karthik since the time I have been doing short films. So we always look forward to work with each other," he added.
Simhaa has so far worked mostly with first-time directors in films such as "Soodhu Kavvum" and "Kadhalil Sodhappuvathu Yeppadi".
He recently started shooting for Tamil film "Urumeen", in which he plays the lead role for the first time in his career.

Together with five private consortia, the province of North Brabant, four regions and the Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment have taken the next step in developing travel planners based on real-time road and public transport information. Market parties collaborated to develop dynamic travel planners with new monitoring functionality, warning the traveller if his journey is subject to change. The resulting knowledge and open-source software is now being widely distributed among commercial parties for further development.


Brain disorders are among the most serious medical challenges facing society today. When a father suffers a stroke or a mother lives with excruciating neuropathic pain, everyone suffers. Thanks to donor investment, UHN researchers are pioneering curative therapies and driving new approaches in medical imaging that may one day stop these life-robbing diseases from hurting so many families.
We talked to Dr. Mojgan Hodaie, neurosurgeon and Surgical Co-Director, Joey and Toby Tanenbaum Family Gamma Knife Centre, Toronto Western Hospital, about how she's advancing research and patient care and how donor support is key to her continued success.
Q: Your lab is known for its innovative approach to the study of neuropathic pain. How does neuropathic pain differ from other pain people might experience?
A: Neuropathic pain arises from nerve injury. It is typically so severe that it interferes with every part of your daily life. It is a silent disease that causes many people to suffer terribly.
Q: How is your research hoping to make a difference?
A: The solution to the understanding of neuropathic pain has been elusive. Science and medicine have advanced significantly, but we still lack a tool that allows us to assess pain objectively. Most of our assessments are based on the subjective experience of pain. My laboratory is dedicated to the understanding of how the brain changes in neuropathic pain. As a surgical laboratory, we see enormous potential in brain imaging. We use new, non-invasive methods of analysis of brain images to detect specific signatures that chronic pain leaves on the brain. Many of these techniques involve new ways of looking at white matter fibres – the conduits that carry information through the brain. We focus on a variety of disorders, but an important one is trigeminal neuralgia – a severe form of neuropathic facial pain. This novel way of studying pain will help us design better treatments, and provides greater hope for relief.
Q: How important is donor support to your research?
A: The direct impact of donors and their contribution allows our research to drive forward. All these plans and projects come with a financial cost. Donor support has been crucial to my lab's research and success. The unique work done in our laboratory is known internationally, attracting many scientists who wish to learn these techniques. This in turn increases the international profile of UHN as well. When donors support this work they are having a tremendous impact at home and also thousands of miles away. It is very rewarding to know that together we can relieve suffering and pain.
Did you know? Dr. Hodaie was the first female neurosurgeon on staff at UHN and holds the rank of Professor in the Department of Surgery, University of Toronto. She is one of only a few women in Canada practising neurosurgery.

Q: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'map' of undefined with Highcharts I'm currently working on creating some highcharts using data from Firebase.
I found an example here:
http://blog.dotnetnerd.dk/post/2014/01/27/Realtime-data-displays-with-Firebase.aspx
However, when I try and load it into my application I receive the following error:

firebase.js:43 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'map' of
  undefined
at app.html:343
at firebase.js:93
at ic (firebase.js:43)
at Wd (firebase.js:93)

at be.Xd.Jb (firebase.js:94)
at firebase.js:109
at firebase.js:59
at cc (firebase.js:55)
at R (firebase.js:59)

The JS and HTML for the highchart looks like this:

var fb = new Firebase("https://<ProjectName>.firebaseio.com/products");
    fb.on("value", function(data) {
        var model = data.val();
          $('#container').highcharts({
            chart: { type: 'column' },
            title: { text: 'Sales' },
            xAxis: {
                categories: model.Categories
            },
            yAxis: { title: { text: 'Quantity' } },
            series: model.Series.map(function(element) {
                return {
                    name: element.Name,
                    data: element.Data
                }
            })
        });
    });

Here is the JSON:

If anyone knows why this error is occurring and how to solve it, it will be much appreciated.
Thank you,
G

A: You must use your own project name in the first line :
https://<ProjectName>.firebaseio.com/products

Change <ProjectName> with your firebase url. You can see which is in your firebase account.


Age is definitely just a number and these ten former celebrity couples are here to prove it. Which celebrity really rocked the cradle? How about the 40-something divorcee who fell for a 19-year-old. Find out which older stars who have dated teens are still together below.
The Good Charlotte rocker turned heads when he started dating teen queen, Hilary Duff. Madden was 26 years old at the time, while Duff was just 16. The pair dated for two years. Recently, Duff hinted that she lost her virginity to the musician, saying "I had a 26-year-old boyfriend…So everyone can make their own assumptions about what I was doing." Duff is recently separated from Mike Comrie, while Madden is married to Nicole Ritchie.
Panettiere began dating her 29-year-old Heroes co-star when she was just 17. The couple dated for two years before calling it quits in 2009. Panettiere now has a child with her fiancé, professional boxer Wladimir Klitschko. Ventimiglia is busy starring in the hit series, Gotham.
Easily one of the most controversial relationships on this list, the Green Mile actor began dating and then married singer Courtney Stodden when she was only 16 years old. Hutchison was 50 at the time. In 2013, it was reported that the couple had split, however they have since reconciled and plan on renewing their vows this year. To each his own.
At 25, the boy band singer began dating rising pop star, Jessica Simpson. She was only 18. The pair dated for over three years before marrying in 2002, however the union ended in divorce just four years later. Today, Lachey is married to media personality Vanessa Minnillo and Simpson wed former NFL player Eric Johnson in 2014.
Following her divorce from professional wrestler Hulk Hogan in 2007, Linda appeared to be "getting her groove back," when she started dating 19-year old Charlie Hill. The pair dated from 2008-2012, and then in 2014 Hill sued Linda for $1.5 million, citing the heavy quantity of menial labor the reality star made him perform during their relationship.
Murray is known for dating his co-stars. So it was no surprise when the One Tree Hill actor fell for an extra on the hit series. A 24-year-old Murray began dating 17-year-old Kenzie Dalton in 2005, following his divorce from Sophia Bush. A year later he proposed, but the two reportedly split in September 2013 after being engaged for seven years.
In 1993, Jerry Seinfeld was 38 and at the height of his career with his show Seinfeld. It's also the same year that he met and fell in love with 17-year-old Shoshanna Lonstein, who was still a senior in high school. They went on to date for five years.
The NBA all-star met his bride in high school. Let's clarify – she was still in high school. Yes, Bryant began dating his current wife, Vanessa, while she was still a senior at Marina High School in Huntington Beach. The two began dating and were engaged just six months later in May 2000. Kobe and Vanessa married in April 2001 and have had quite a rocky relationship including cheating rumors, sexual assault allegations and divorce filings. However, the pair are still married today and raising their two daughters together.
The That 70's Show star was 24 when he started dating the infamous Lindsay Lohan in 2004. The actress was 18 at the time and in the height of her career. The couple dated for just over a year.
Taylor Swift famously sang about John Mayer breaking her heart when she was just 19. The notorious bad boy was 32 at the time. The pair dated for six months in 2010. Mayer is now linked to his on-again-off-again girlfriend, Katy Perry, who also happens to be T-Swift's newest archenemy.

Once the chips begin piling up, how does your company deal with them? While there are as many different approaches as there are machine shops, the most efficient systems share a few important traits.
Every machine shop has developed its own procedure for chip disposal. This is necessitated by concerns such as the configuration of the facility, the metalworking fluids in use, the materials being machined and the type of chips being produced.
Transport: Getting the chips from the machine tool to the processing system can be accomplished in many ways, either manually or via conveyors.
Size: Grinding or sorting chips to a uniform size.
Separation: Once the chip size is relatively standard, and tramp metals such as bolts, etc., have been removed, the chips are introduced into a centrifugal spinning device, sending coolant to a filtration system and dry chips to a bin.
Disposal: Dry chips are transported to a bin and handled by a disposal company. In the example photographed above, the dry, uniform chips are driven by air through overhead piping to the bin, which can automatically send emails to both the machine shop's general manager and the disposal company that the bin is full and ready for pickup.
One of the most efficient systems I've seen first-hand was during a visit to Brek Manufacturing, which had recently installed a leading-edge system with another one soon to be installed.
