After thorough removal of the entire powder from the plates, you will be able to clean them thoroughly and wash them out. This means that after taking a bath you will be able to stand on the tiles without any worries. General cleaning done in the bathroom also consists of cleaning the shower and sink and toilet bowls. Thanks to this, not only the household, but also the guests will feel very good using the bathroom.
Cleaning hospital wards is performed by people who have been specially prepared for this type of work. They must be resistant to various diseases and have good physical fitness, because cleaning all hospital rooms can be very demanding. Practically every day cleaning of hospital bathrooms is done, which must be sterile clean and the floor in bathrooms is washed up to two or three times a day. Every other day, there is also a thorough disinfection of the tables standing next to the patients' beds, which are still wiped every morning. However, once a week or before an important medical visit, additional thorough floor cleaning is carried out. .

European Union in Bible Prophecy: ETERNITY FUTURE : PART 2 COMING SOON !!!
ETERNITY FUTURE : PART 2 COMING SOON !!!
This student of Bible Prophecy and Theology has finally completed : Eternity Future Part 2 we will upload it online in one week. Mario is still taking a prolonged 'Internet Vacation.' ( Hey; I'm just tired and need some time alone with GOD in my secret place* Mark 1 : 35 ) If you have read : Eternity Future in our 'Original' website it will continue on from there. This unworthy servant of GOD does 'NOT' claim any special revelation; 'MOST' of what will be 'Presented' in Eternity Future Part 2 is backed up by : Astronomical Facts, Common Sense and Biblical Passages; we have been double checking and triple checking the article for any 'Theological Errors'. These articles were originally written to explain what is taking place in the rest of the 99.99999999999999% of this Universe and beyond that does 'NOT' include our : Milky Way Galaxy, our Solar System nor our planet Earth !!! We ask for your PRAYERS so that we may be led to all truth concerning this subject and topic; because hundreds of millions of human souls have been led to believe that we were all created by 'Ancient Aliens' this is a topic/ subject that should be addressed and 'NOT' totally ignored by Christian Apologetics.
About half of the material that we will use comes from Theological Commentaries that other servants of GOD have been 'Illuminated' with in past centuries and decades as well as in the present; where the 'Explosion of Knowledge' continues to increase, grow and multiply almost at an exponential rate !!! This servant of GOD is just 'Trying' to connect as many 'Dots' and pieces of this giganormous like 'Puzzle' that we call 'Eternity' to try and make sense of it all; in all our efforts and discoveries we believe that what we are presenting barely even 'Scratches the Surface' so to speak of what our Eternal Creator is doing throughout all the 3 Heavens and above and beyond any : 24 / 7 / 365 earth timeline !!!
By : Mario Romano; this unworthy servant of GOD is either 'Crazy Mad' or what he is trying to communicate to others in these article presentations could be just the awesome truth and the 'Tip of the Iceberg' so to speak concerning what is actually taking place above this heaven and also in all the other HEAVENS above us !!! Thee GOD that this servant of GOD worships is the GOD of : Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who personally and physically visited this planet some 2000 years ago in the person of JESUS CHRIST !!! Our creator is 'NOT' just the CREATOR of earth and a : vast empty, dead and desolate Universe as some believe !!!

Q: Existence and Uniqueness Problem in Real Analysis $\textbf{Q:}$ Let $E$ be a non empty subset of $\mathbb{R}$ and $n\ge 1$ be an integer, and let $L<K$ be integers. Suppose that $\frac{L}{n}$ is a lower bound and $\frac{K}{n}$ is an upper bound of $E$. Then show that there is a unique $m$ such that $L<m\le K$ such that $\frac{m}{n}$ is upper bound for $E$, but $\frac{m-1}{n}$ is not an upper bound for $E$.
It was asked in the exercise to solve this problem "without" using the Completeteness Property of $\mathbb{R}$, but I've used that property in my proof. Can anyone share a solution of the problem without using the sup property. Down below is my solution to the problem which I'm pretty sure is correct , but any suggestions regarding the proof writing syntax of the solution would be really appreciated.
$\textbf{Sol:}$   Let $P=\{\frac{L+i}{n}\}$ where $i=0,1,2,\cdots K-L$ be a partition of the closed interval $[\frac{L}{n},\frac{K}{n}]$. As $\frac{K}{n}$ is an upper bound for $E$, therefore $t:=\sup {E}$ exists. So, $\frac{L}{n}<t\le\frac{K}{n}$, therefore $t\in(\frac{L+i-1}{n},\frac{L}{n}]$ for some unique $i\in\{1,2,\cdots K-L\}$. Now construct $m=L+i$ which is unique as $i$ is unique, then clearly $L<m\le K$ and also $\frac{m-1}{n}<t\le\frac{m}{n}$. As $t$ is by definition the $\sup E$, therefore $\frac{m-1}{n}$ is not an upper bound for $E$ and $\frac{m}{n}$ is an upper bound for $E$. $\quad\blacksquare$

A: Your proof is correct and yes, completeness is an overkill in this case.
Following your proof, consider the set
$$ P_1 = \left\{ i\in \{0,1, \cdots, K-L\}: \frac{L+i}{n} \text{ is an upper bound of } E\right\}.$$
Note that $P_1$ is a subset of $\mathbb N$ and is non-empty since $K-L \in E$. Thus by the well-ordering principle, there is a least element $J \in P_1$. By construction, $\frac{L+J}{n}$ is an upper bound of $E$. However, $\frac{L+J-1}{n}$ is not. There are two cases:
(1) if $J = 0$, then $\frac{L}{n}$ is an upper bound of $E$. But since $\frac{L}{n}$ is also an upper bound of $E$, we must have $\{E\} = \{L/n\}$ and clearly $\frac{L-1}{n}$ is not an upper bound.
(2) if $J >0$, then $J-1 \ge 0$. Since $J-1\notin P_1$, $\frac{L+J-1}{n}$ is not an upper bound of $E$.
Now choose $m = L+J$ and this finishes the proof.

Respawn Entertainment, under the umbrella of EA, announced two days ago Apex Legends, a new Battle Royale that comes to compete with Fortnite and PUBG and that seems to have been a success in its launch, accumulating more than one million players in its eight first hours of life.
The title is available for consoles and PCs through the Origin platform, although from EA they have confirmed that they are looking for a way to also take it to mobile operating systems.
According to Electronic Arts, the game was built from the ground up to operate as a "live service" that will have updates of content and possible changes in its formula and balance. The company also wants to explore ways to take the title to different paths, which should include betting in the eSports world and even the creation of a mobile version.
As for the two consoles, players must go to their respective system's in-game store and type in 'Apex Legends' in the search bar, after which the game should appear and be available for download.

Team-Garcetti Tries to Intimidate Senator Kelly for Vote
It's been over a year since Los Angeles City Mayor Eric Garcetti was nominated by the Biden Administration to serve as Ambassador to India. And what a year it's been. As we've shared, there have been reports commissioned to help prove his complete disbelief and unawareness over allegations of sexual assault by his close friend and advisor Rick Jacobs. When that didn't seem to put legislators at ease or provide the political cover necessary to appoint Garcetti to the post, his parents hired a lobbying firm to move the process forward and to "help tell the truth".
In the latest twist of this ongoing Kardashian-like tale, Politico has reported that members of team-Garcetti have made attempts to pressure Senator Mark Kelly (who is also a retired U.S. Naval Captain and NASA astronaut) to support Garcetti's nomination by leaving the impression that not doing so would result in him being cut off from donor networks. Jacob Peters, a spokesman for the Senator's office put it best when he said: "Sen. Kelly was shot at over Iraq during Operation Desert Storm, so there's a zero percent chance he'd be intimidated by this." As of now, it does not appear that the needed votes are in place for the appointment. Fortunately for Garcetti, there's a GoFundMe effort to help him get a plane ticket to India.

Giovanni Muzio (Milán, 12 de febrero de 1893-ibídem, 21 de mayo de 1982) fue un arquitecto italiano. En el campo de la arquitectura fue el iniciador y el exponente más representativo del movimiento artístico conocido como novecento, y más en general de la corriente tradicionalista que caracterizó la arquitectura italiana de los años veinte y treinta, en rivalidad con el racionalismo.

Biografía

Nacido en Milán, donde su padre Virginio Muzio, renombrado arquitecto bergamasco, fue profesor de arquitectura en la Academia de Bellas Artes desde 1896 hasta 1902, se trasladó a la ciudad de origen de su padre cuando este último terminó su actividad didáctica. En Bérgamo frecuentó el Liceo Ginnasio Paolo Sarpi, posteriormente estudió en el Collegio Ghislieri de Pavía y finalmente en el Politécnico de Milán. Tras haber combatido en la Primera Guerra Mundial y haber realizado un viaje por Europa, en 1920 abrió en la Via San'Orsola de Milán un estudio junto con Giuseppe De Finetti, Giò Ponti, Emilio Lancia y Mino Fiocchi y participó activamente en la vida cultural milanesa.

Entre 1919 y 1922 realizó la que él mismo consideraba una obra manifiesto: la llamada Ca' Brutta («casa fea») en la Via Moscova, que suscitó un gran escándalo a causa de su uso extravagante de los elementos del lenguaje clásico, como demuestra el nombre atribuido popularmente al edificio.

Muzio, enfrentado tanto con el eclecticismo neogótico y neorrenacentista que todavía sobrevivía en Milán como con el modernismo, propuso en la Ca' Brutta un retorno al clasicismo, reducido a volúmenes puros y elementos arquitectónicos simples, lejos de cualquier historicismo ecléctico. Sus referentes se deben buscar en el neoclasicismo lombardo del siglo XIX. Su arquitectura se acerca a la «pintura metafísica» de Giorgio De Chirico y al «realismo mágico», produciendo un monumentalismo severo al que se le reconoce en la actualidad un gran valor urbano.

La propuesta de Muzio para la Ca' Brutta modificó radicalmente la morfología del barrio (caracterizado en la época por la presencia de palacetes) insertando una volumetría muy elevada, un edificio de mayor altura y de una tipología completamente diferente. A través de los documentos se descubre que los primeros roces fueron con la administración pública. Muzio no siguió el perímetro de la parcela para crear un patio interior sino que dividió literalmente la parcela en dos partes creando una nueva calle en el interior de la parcela. En consecuencia, el edificio no tiene una fachada continua hacia la Via Turati y es precisamente esta decisión volumétrica la que provocó la reacción de la administración milanesa. Muzio tuvo por tanto que unir los dos edificios para mediar con las autoridades, y lo hizo inventando un verdadero arco de triunfo. Esta continuidad insertada sobre una discontinuidad es uno de los modos típicos de proceder de Muzio. Terminadas las obras, el edificio se mostró con toda su estridente novedad. La fachada no corresponde a la aprobada por el Ayuntamiento, razón por la cual en verano de 1922 se desencadenaron una serie de batallas legales que condujeron a la demolición de dos terrazas que coronaban la fachada principal. Con este sacrificio se calmaron las aguas.

Durante los años veinte colaboró con su amigo Mario Sironi para diseñar varias instalaciones y pabellones, entre ellos el pabellón para la Exposición de Barcelona y las instalaciones para la Trienal de Milán de 1930. También se ocupó de urbanismo: en 1924 fundó el Club degli urbanisti junto a otros famosos arquitectos con los que participó en concursos, el más significativo de los cuales fue el proyecto para Milán Forma Urbis Mediolani de 1927, en el que desarrolló una idea de ciudad ordenada y compacta no lejos de las experiencias del siglo XIX.

También en los años veinte proyectó en el Valle de Aosta algunas centrales hidroeléctricas para la Società Idroelettrica Piemontese: las centrales de Maen (1924-1928), de Covalou (1925-1926), de Promeron (1926-1928) y de Isollaz (1926-1927). En los años cincuenta realizó otras dos centrales: la de Avise (1952) y la de Quart (1955). En estas centrales Muzio, pese a emplear un lenguaje historicista, consiguió dar coherencia a la forma de los espacios y de los cerramientos a través del respeto a la función y al uso de geometrías esenciales.

Para Muzio, los años veinte y treinta se caracterizaron por una actividad arquitectónica cada vez más intensa, que incluía participaciones en concursos y varias colaboraciones con otros arquitectos, entre otros en el proyecto del Palazzo dell'INPS en EUR (Roma). En esos años fue una de las figuras más importantes de la arquitectura italiana, pero fue objeto de críticas por parte de algunos intelectuales vinculados al Movimiento Moderno. Además de numerosísimos edificios residenciales, proyectó importantes edificios públicos de Milán como la Universidad Católica del Sagrado Corazón en el Largo Gemelli de Milán (1927-1934), el Palazzo dell'Arte en el Parco Sempione (sede de la Trienal de Milán) y el Tempio della Vittoria.

Entre 1940 y 1942 participó en el concurso internacional para el Anıtkabir, el mausoleo de Mustafa Kemal Atatürk en Ankara. Su proyecto se clasificó segundo en el grupo de los cinco proyectos merecedores de mención (el concurso para el Anıtkabir, con 49 participantes, se concluyó con un primer grupo de tres proyectos ganadores y un segundo grupo de cinco proyectos merecedores de mención).

Fue particularmente intensa su actividad de diseño de edificios de culto, en particular para la orden franciscana, que continuará durante mucho tiempo después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Los edificios de culto diseñados por Muzio se organizan a partir de continuas variaciones de los esquemas longitudinales de las iglesias antiguas, en particular románicas, y a menudo presentan una cúpula sobre una planta de geometría compleja. Muzio prestaba además un particular interés por la inserción urbanística de la iglesia como centro cívico, en el que el edificio eclesiástico forma parte de un complejo más extenso y polifuncional. Esta investigación proyectual encontró su mayor éxito en la Basílica de la Anunciación de Nazaret (Israel), proyectada en 1955 y completada en 1969.

Muzio fue durante mucho tiempo profesor en el Politécnico de Turín, del que proyectó su sede central del Corso Duca degli Abruzzi, y en el Politécnico de Milán, hasta 1963.

The hauler is a small but common trading ship in Elite Dangerous. It has a relatively low top speed (although when boosting and with 4 pips to engines it can reach about 280m/s) only a single hard-point, and suffers from restricted cockpit visibility - this ship is best suited for safe and low-risk trade routes!
The Hauler is a good step-up form the Sidewinder for players looking to increase their trading profits as it has 4 times the capacity as the sidewinder.

Ultra-fast X-ray ...
Ultra-fast X-ray camera to probe structure of matter
An innovative X-ray camera that can record bursts of images at an unprecedented speed of 4.5 million frames per second is under development as part of a new research facility that will look to shed light on the structure of matter.
Being built by the UK's Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), the unique device will be delivered to the €1bn European XFEL (X-ray Free-Electron Laser) facility (near Hamburg, German) next year, and will contribute to drug discovery and other vital research once operations begin in 2015.
The European XFEL is a two-mile-long facility that will use superconducting accelerator technology to accelerate electrons, which then generate X-ray flashes a billion times brighter than those produced by conventional X-ray sources. Each flash will last less than one hundred million billionth of a second. With the properties of laser light, these short, intense flashes will, for example, make it possible to take three-dimensional X-ray images of single molecules.
Current leading-edge X-ray cameras are designed to capture images when matter is bombarded by a constant beam of X-rays. But the extreme brevity and intensity of the flashes produced by the European XFEL means such cameras will not be suitable for use at the new facility.
STFC's £3m prototype, which is being built in collaboration with University of Glasgow, is specifically designed to work in conjunction with hyper-short, hyper-brilliant X-ray flashes. It will be installed in one of the first experimental end stations incorporated in the European XFEL.
The European XFEL aims to improve understanding of matter and its behaviour, mapping the atomic details of viruses, for instance, or pinpointing the molecular composition of individual cells.
Dr Markus Kuster, group leader of European XFEL's detector development, commented: 'The European XFEL will represent a major step forward in equipping Europe with a new generation of research infrastructure that can meet the requirements of the 21st century. STFC's unique skills are creating an imaging device which will help this remarkable facility realise its vast potential.'

In the 1920's France's population was about 50 million. Today it's about 65 million. This about the same growth rate as Britain with a current population of about 65 million. The population growth rate of Europe is approaching zero. France's population would be lower if it were not for recent immigration from Algeria and other parts of Africa. Residents of what's left of France's colonial empire are French citizens and count in its official population.

Chlodio said:
Economists love statistics and population control is one way to manipulate the statistics. Take for example per capita GDP (Gross Domestic Product). If GCP holds steady while population declines, then per capita GDP rises. It looks like the country is getting wealthier and on an individual basis that might be true, but in fact the country is not producing more than it used to. In some situations, it might be easier to control population growth than it is to increase GDP. China has benefitted immensely from their One Child Policy, at least in terms of per capita GDP.
Families in China probably don't soothe each other with visions of greater prosperity because they have fewer children; instead, they are probably very worried and very concerned that they have only one child who has to bear the burden of caring for their parents in old age. I can understand why the Chinese govt did this but they didn't really think it through.
Dan Howard
The One Child policy has accelerated the Aging demographic timebomb in China. It has also caused a major imbalance between the sexes: males significantly outnumber females. Females are being forcefully trafficked into China as a consequence.
There is considerable doubt that the one-child policy was a success; it seems that, in tandem with other countries of similar development, China's fertility would have reduced anyway, without the one-child policy.

This "aging demographic time bomb" is just another thing that journalists want to worry us with. If the population was increasing so that the age profile of the population had a balance of working-age people, the journalists would, for sure, simply be trying to make us worry about the "demographic time bomb". A population of approaching 8 billion and no end in sight to the increase I regard as worrying, an aging population I think we will learn to cope with. As individuals, the primary worry for each one of us is the sickness and death that we all ultimately must face.

I've already shown you that there IS an end in sight. Specifically, in the 2050s. After that the population will start to decline. Nothing short of a cataclysmic event will change this.
China's fertility would have reduced anyway, without the one-child policy.
Yes but not as quickly. As I said, the One Child Policy "accelerated" the trend, it didn't cause it. In addition, the gender imbalance has partially contributed to the decline in fertility and that is a direct result of the OCP.

Here is the graph that you included in your earlier post.
As far as I can see the population will still be increasing, though markedly more slowly, in 2050.
I would really love to believe that the population will peak in that year and start falling, but from what I read the peak won't be reached until about 2100.
The latest predictions by demographers in the 2010s shows that, because of continued high fertility in Africa, growth won't stop, even by 2100, although it will be only 0.1% pa by then. Of course, nobody can be certain what will happen 80 years in the future. There are a actually a range of predictions, the median being a population peak of 10.7 billion at or soon after 2100.

Interestingly enough, the Wikipedia page for this graph states that it was made in 2010 (or 2011). The UN population projections for Africa have been significantly revised upwards since that point in time.
One would wonder if overpopulation in Sub-Saharan Africa could result in selection pressures there that would result in eugenic fertility there (with the population there becoming smarter due to the smarter people there having more children).
Also, my point here about Sub-Saharan Africa's future could apply to any overpopulated country, no?

Every year I reflect on why I give. I love that my story, as all of ours, is ever growing.
This year, we are celebrating five years of Giving Tuesdays. I'm proud to be a part of #OregoniansGive. Rotary International Foundation is truly is like having your own foundation, as it celebrates 100 years. It began with just $26.50 and has grown to over $1 billion. Consistently ranked among the most effective nonprofits in the world, Rotary Foundation is a sum of all of us who contribute to it and make the projects happen around the world each year.
First, because it starts with people, I am honored to be a part of Rotary, and to share it with amazing people like Lou Radja, my brother from another mother. Who is an example of how to Be More, Give More and give back with EduCongo. That we should share this orbit together is a pleasure.
To my dear husband Adam Creighton. Who tirelessly dedicates himself in service of humanity. Whose commitment to InStove and vision to accelerate the growth of green jobs in rural America. To lobby his talents on behalf of a better and cleaner way of living for the planet.
Adam & Clark volunteering at Energy Park during the Oregon Country Fair.
Because of what Fred Colgan created in his retirement on the banks of the Coast Fork of the Willamette River. Who teamed up with Damon Ogle to create a revolutionary technology, the InStove. I'm inspired to give of myself to InStove, as its Chief Partnership Officer, to see us reach our full capacity through partnership with others doing great work.
Through the work and living example of people like Michael Royce, who created Green Empowerment. An organization that supports community level development, particularly related to energy equity and clean water, through long term local partners. As a Portland-based team, they are a great example of good development practices at work.
I give because I am inspired by the work that Habitat for Humanity does for the world, and right here in Portland. Thanks to Pat Mahoney, our current club President, for inviting me to the spring breakfast table fundraiser. When I consider the options for how to create diverse in communities and neighborhoods within our city, it is work like this that will get us there together. As a home owner and real estate aficionado for more than a decade, I feel that this approach works to help create housing options that are accessible to all. I also love the earthquake-proof work that I saw a presentation on in Washington, DC, where they won an award for this innovative technology.
I give each year to Lewis & Clark College, because I deeply appreciate all that the College has done to foster me into who I am today. Ever grateful for my education, I believe that it should be attainable for all. While a student, I was especially grateful for extra scholarships that helped me cover the gap between what I could pay, working 2-3 jobs on top of student aid, and what it cost to attend.
I give to the La Pine Community Kitchen because their work serving people in need in their community inspires me. It is a great service for so many people each day. I'm inspired by their Executive Director, Kim's work to raise funds and better serve the community. I'm excited to get funding for a small project to equip the kitchen with InStove to help reduce the monthly gas bill of $200 (one of their highest monthly expenses) and to be prepared in the event of poor weather or other emergencies.
I give to the Columbia Riverkeeper because I believe that we should protect our greatest natural resources and make wise choices for our future generations.
I give because of people like Javelin Ormond, a man who served his community, expanding from Promise Natural Foods in Canyonville, the baseball field in Days Creek, and his presence upriver in Tiller. He was a man of the people to gave and gave of himself. We miss you Jav.
I give to Yo Ghana!, a volunteer based penpal opportunity for children in Ghana and Oregon. Great stuff. Feel free to check them out and donate by sending to "Yo Ghana!" to 4920 NE 35th Place, Portland OR 97211.
I give because people like Delilah inspire me with the ferocity of their faith in good work. She brought an InStove out to Ghana and immediately started working with women to fry plantain chips and cook down palm nut oil. She shows how applicable InStoves are for creating micro-businesses or cleaning up big ones.
I give of myself because I believe in Tana Myers, who founded Global Village Power. She is the local partner that InStove relies on for expansion to scale within Ghana. It is an exciting venture to support and be a part of.
I give because of my village, Dorfor Adidome, in the Volta Region of Ghana, West Africa. I'm thankful everyday for the experience I gained through being a Peace Corps Volunteer. I dream of giving back more through creating a space called Ama Kope, or "Ama's Village." Ama was my name as a volunteer, I consider it as any of our names that we adopt in a culture that we experience on a deeper level by living there. I've gone by Milla, Ama, Woesta, and Mama Dorfor Nenyo I.
I love you so much I can hardly contain the joy of it! When I think of all the amazing women I'm connected to, and how generous and inspiring they are, I'm really humbled. Thank you for including me in your circle, ladies. Hugs to all the kids! Happiest of holidays! Thank you for remembering and promoting all the great work being done around the world, and for focusing on the things we can control and improve in our lives. I love you!

On today's episode of WP Elevation we're talking with Dustin Hartzler, a happiness engineer at Automattic and the host of the Your Website Engineer podcast. His podcast is consistently at the top of the Google search rankings and in the iTunes search results for WordPress podcasts!
If you think you know something - teach it! @dustinhartzler
Dustin talks about his first experience with WordPress, how his podcast got started, and what it's like working at Automattic. It's all here on episode #92 of WP Elevation.
Win a copy of Take The Stairs: 7 Steps to Achieving True Success by Rory Vaden by answering this question: what is the #1 thing stopping you from using Wordpress.com and instead using Wordpress.org? Leave a comment below and Dustin will be back in a few weeks to pick a winner!
Congratulations Mark Taylor! Dustin has chosen you as the lucky winner of the competition! Thanks for your contribution and keep elevating!
With a degree in engineering and a passion for answering people's questions, Dustin is a natural fit for his happiness engineer role at Automattic – a job coveted by WordPress enthusiasts everywhere.
I had no idea how long it would take to have an audience. @dustinhartzler
But he didn't begin his career wanting to work for them. His earliest ambitions were to be a pilot – until he realized he'd have to be away from home a lot. That interest gave way to curiosity about computers and website development. In 2002, he bought his first computer and by 2008 he was building websites for his wedding and his friends.
He was introduced to WordPress around the time he began building websites and at first glance he had no interest in using WordPress! He couldn't see the value in it and don't like the interface.
But he gave it a shot to use it when building a friend's site and by 2010 he had started his own WordPress consulting business.
Everybody has a unique way of bringing their passion to other people. @dustinhartzler
He noticed other WordPress consultants had podcasts to promote themselves and their services, so he started his own. The Your Website Engineer podcast was born! Today he says the key to the success of that show – and its high rankings – are mainly due to its longevity and its consistency. He regularly creates new content for his users and has done so for the last five years now.
But by late 2013 he and his wife were planning a family and he was frustrated with web site projects, so he started looking around for something that would offer him flexible hours and the ability to work from home.
After listening to a podcast that featured another happiness engineer from Automation he checked out their website and their "work for us" page. He decided to submit his information. A few weeks later he interviewed for the role, then was given a four-week trial after which he was offered the job.
Today he continues in his day to day role with Automation and produces his podcast and other offerings at night and on weekends. He is also the doting father of a 13-month old girl and a committed husband who likes to travel, hike and bike with his wife.
Have a listen to hear all of it on today's WP Elevation show!
I help WordPress enthusiasts make the best web sites they can. @dustinhartzler

Scots Baronial Architecture: how to spot it
Some of the most astounding 16th and later 19th century Castles in Scotland were built in a style that became known as Scots Baronial. This decorative, fantastical, sometimes downright wacky architecture was influenced by the French Renaissance and strongly recalls some of the fairytale European castles which also inspired Disney.
Balmoral Castle, photo by Stuart Yeates.
Finished in 1856, Balmoral is a fine example of the revival of Scots Baronial in the 19th century, which was based on earlier 16th Century architecture. Note the crenulations (uniform notches in the top of walls for shooting imaginary arrows), lancet windows (narrow and arched) and bartizans (small protruding turrets supported by corbelling). The style of the central keep tower is influenced by 16th Century castles such as Craigeivar (see below)
Dunrobin Castle, seat of the Chief of Clan Sutherland, with its round towers and gothic spires, is another 19th Century revivalist example.
Cinderella Castle in Disneyland is a Gothic confection which shares many of the same elements. Note the gothic spires, round towers, lancet windows and bartizans supported from beneath by decorative corbelling.
Cinderella Castle, Disneyland
Scots Baronial first emerged around 1560. It was born out of the style of earlier medieval castles and towers, and the influence of French masons that came over to work on Royal palaces at the time. During this period the Scottish and French royal houses were closely connected as Scotland enjoyed the 'auld alliance', a defensive strategy against the English, who were often invading one or other of them, and sometimes both at once!
It was around this time that Mary, soon-to-be Queen of Scots, was married to soon-to-be King of France, François II. If he had not inconveniently died, plunging Mary into a vulnerable position, Scotland's future might have been very different.
As we have seen above, this style was re-employed in the 19th Century during the Neo-gothic revival that swept through Victorian Britain, but the original 16th Century Scots Baronial style can still take your breath away.
Scots Baronial castles of the 16th Century: Fyvie
Fyvie Castle in Aberdeenshire
Fyvie Castle in Aberdeenshire is one of the most stunning examples. First built in the 13th Century (some claim 1211) as a defensive royal tower, every family who owned it since then has added another tower.
Notice the unevenness of the roof line, a common feature of Scots Baronial, and the imperiously high straight walls, an echo of its medieval past. The castle carries many bartizans, those little turrets that jut out from the topmost corners of the walls, but the roof spires are not as pointedly gothic as they sometimes became during the revival. You can see crenulations along the tops of the walls, but few lancet windows, which was not unusual. Windows were starting to be larger and made from plate glass, as a castle's defensive purpose gave way to the more decorative renaissance age.
Charles I, the one who lost his head, lived here as a child, and before the castle was built it was the site of an open-air court held by Robert the Bruce.
In 1599 Alexander Seton, Fyvie's owner at that time, commissioned the building of the grand central entrance known as Seton tower. He also had a great processional staircase built inside. It was Alexander Seton who in 1592 married Lillias Drummond, thought to be the ghost known as the Lady in Green who haunts the castle. Fyvie Castle had long been cursed by Thomas the Rhymer, an eccentric 13th Century Scottish laird and seer, who told the owner that no male heirs would ever be born within the castle walls. (This turned out to be true for 6 centuries).
After nine years of marriage to Alexander, Lillias gave birth to four daughters in succession. He held her entirely responsible for the lack of sons, as men did then, and found himself another wife. How Lillias died is not exactly known. Some say she wasted away of a broken heart, some say he killed her. By 1601 she was dead, at 29 years of age.
Alexander married his new flame, but on their wedding night they were severely disturbed by the sounds of a disembodied sighing woman. In the morning, scratched into the stone windowsill outside the bedroom, upside down, was the name Lillias Drummond! No one knows how it got there; the bedroom window is fifty feet from the ground. Her carved name can still be seen to this day.
In 1920 the skeleton of a woman was found in the walls of a bedroom during excavations to the castle. Could this have been the body of Lillias Drummond? Spooky things started happening when it was moved to be decently buried, so the renovators put it back!
Fyvie Castle is now in the possession of the National Trust for Scotland and is open to visitors throughout the summer. For more information visit the National Trust for Scotland website.
Scots Baronial Castles of the 16th century: Craigievar
Craigeivar Castle, Aberdeenshire. Photo by Richard Slessor
A truly fairytale tower house this: pretty bartizans supported by high corbels, covered with pink harling and a generous helping of gargoyles. You can imagine Rapunztel letting down her hair from one of the upper windows. Though work began on the castle at the end of the 16th Century, it was finally completed around 1626.
Harling is a plastering process that covers the bare stone using a slurry of small pebbles. It is then rendered with a coloured lime wash. Harling is perfectly adapted to the Scottish weather, as it is hard wearing and long lasting.
Craigievar Castle, in Aberdeenshire, stands seven storeys high. It was seat of the Chief of Clan Sempill, and the Forbes-Sempill family who inherited that lineage lived within its walls for 350 years. Now it too belongs to the National trust for Scotland.
The castle fell into terrible disrepair by the nineteenth century, and its owner considered demolishing it. John Smith, a noted architect of the period, advised against, as to lose it would have been an architectural tragedy. So he took on the repairs himself, re-building the roof and replacing windows and harling. Thanks to him we can enjoy it today as one of the finest examples of original Scots Baronial architecture still standing.
It's well worth a visit. Craigeivar boasts some of the finest plasterwork ceilings in Scotland. For information on opening times please use this link to Visit Scotland
Scots Baronial Castles of the 16th Century: Claypotts
Claypotts Castle near Dundee, and early and eccentric example of Scots Baronial
One of the most unusual castles of its type, Calypotts is built in a Z-plan, which was popular in the 16th century. This consists of a rectangular middle section with two massive towers at diagonal corners. The tops of each of the towers are corbelled with square garret chambers, like little roofed houses balanced on top. Note also the 'crow-step' gables on the garret chambers, another popular feature of Scots Baronial.
Building started in 1569 and finally finished in 1588, and it has barely been altered since then. It was built by John Strachan for himself, his wife and their seven children. Their family had been tenants of Lindores Abbey near Fife, paying £12 a year (and 12 chickens) in rent for the scrap of land they farmed. In 1559, as the reformation swept Scotland, John Knox, Scottish protestant reformer, sacked the Abbey and divided big chunks of land between local families. The fortunes of John Strachan and his family were suddenly extremely buoyant. Ten years later Scrachan was able to build Claypotts Castle to reflect their new wealth.
Claypotts ended up in the ownership of John Graham, Viscount of Dundee, who led a successful Jacobite victory in the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689. Unfortunately he also died there. He was nicknamed 'Bonnie Dundee' for his bravery. He never occupied the property, and it spent the remainder of its serviceable years being lived in by farmworkers (who presumably couldn't believe their luck), which is a fitting tribute to the humble origins of its founder.
It is now owned by Historic Scotland. Click on their website for opening times.
Victorian tenements in Edinburgh, with Scots Baronial features. Photo by Kim Traynor
During the nineteenth century revival many town houses adopted elements of Scots Baronial, with crow-stepped gables, and tiny bartizans gracing the frontages of Victorian buildings, such as this tenement in Edinburgh. If you look out for these details on buildings when you next visit Scotland you will be able to state with confidence 'that's Scots Baronial that is!'
And finally… One of the most over the top representations of Scots Baronial is this extraordinary concoction in Aberdeen, built in 1896: the Salvation Army Citadel.
Salvation Army Citadel, Aberdeen, 1896. Photo by Jane Cartney
By the beginning of the Twentieth century the Scots Baronial revival had started to be viewed as a bit ridiculous, as architects rushed to embrace modernism. But thanks to these surviving buildings we can still enjoy the more fanciful fashions of our forebears.

Sunday 13th November, The Lemon Grove
Epic, eclectic, violent - Crystal Castles are here to smash the Lemmy.
Photo Credit: musicforgood.tv
From the cryptic, drug-addled opening of their buoyant debut to the bleeding, ethereal waves of 2016's Amnesty I, Crystal Castles' development is as fascinating as it is ugly. On Sunday 13th November, they play Exeter's Lemon Grove. Whatever you do, don't miss it.
Visceral, cryptic and utterly bizarre, the Canadian duo comprise of multi-instrumentalist Ethan Kath and a new, mononymous vocalist called Edith (stand-in for the loudly-departed Alice Glass). Their sound is epic; eclectic; violent. Broadly respected as dealers of death in the demise of first wave electroclash, Crystal Castles' wonky synth-pop is grossly rough around the edges and distorted to its sordid core. The Pixies of underground electronica, their eponymous first record blended zingy analogue textures with abrasive themes and aggressive, shrieked vocals – like a sort of AWOL digi-punk sound, but more unabashedly cruel on the ears. Later, on LPs II and III, this formula was honed into an altogether darker beast; on tracks like the bit-crushed Doe Deer and the cascading Vietnam, the band draw on goth-rock and new romantic textures, evolving the precious dichotomy of their daggers-at-the-disco debut into a vile onslaught of gorgeously thick digital noise. On this year's album, Kath's taken a shoegazing approach; the mixes are ambient, droning and wavy. Critics and fans aren't sure if they like it yet, but it's certainly different – and it'd be disingenuous to pretend that experimentalism isn't a welcome trait in anti-bands like this.
Live, we can't be sure what to expect. This tour, Edith's debut outing, represents Crystal Castles' first without the ephemeral and fastidiously rabid Alice Glass. Assuming her replacement can cut the mustard however, there should be plenty of kicking, screaming and miserable dancing. It'll be fascinating to experience the duo in a space as intimate as the Lemmy, that's for sure – this a band who have torn up festival grounds with their uncompromising musical barbarism. I'm just dying to see what carnage they'll excite here in Exeter.

A thermal/optical carbon analyzer equipped with seven-wavelength light source/detector (405-980 nm) for monitoring spectral reflectance (R) and transmittance (T) of filter samples allowed "thermal spectral analysis (TSA)" and wavelength (lambda)-dependent organic-carbon (OC)-elemental-carbon (EC) measurements. Optical sensing was calibrated with transfer standards traceable to absolute R and T measurements, adjusted for loading effects to report spectral light absorption (as absorption optical depth (tau(a,lambda))), and verified using diesel exhaust samples. Tests on ambient and source samples show OC and EC concentrations equivalent to those from conventional carbon analysis when based on the same wavelength (similar to 635 nm) for pyrolysis adjustment. TSA provides additional information that evaluates black-carbon (BC) and brown-carbon (BrC) contributions and their optical properties in the near infrared to the near ultraviolet parts of the solar spectrum. The enhanced carbon analyzer can add value to current aerosol monitoring programs and provide insight into more accurate OC and EC measurements for climate, visibility, or health studies.

Best crust around. I always order the Old Port (pesto, spinach, chicken, etc).
Delicious chewy crust ...even gets a little poofy. Had a eggplant supreme with really great crisp fried eggplant, garlic, tomato and mushroom. Truly delicious. Kids cheese pizza looked great too. No beer or wine. Sells some meats and fresh veggies too. Really really recommended. Small family owned place. Home made. Could use some music and a bit more lighting. Has games to play while you wait.
Wow! What a great stop. Passing through and hungy for lunch. They made us one of the best pizzas I've had in New England, and that's saying something as an ex Jersey boy. great crust and fresh toppings on a huge pie that 3 of us couldnt make a dent in. reasonable prices and friendly service.

BET REMEMBERS THE VICTIMS OF THE CHARLESTON SHOOTINGS
Authorities notified Meek last month that he was under investigation. He was arrested Thursday. It wasn't clear whether he had an attorney to contact for comment on the case, but his girlfriend has said he is innocent. Meek was expected to appear in court for arraignment at 11 a.m. Friday.
Meek has said Roof stayed with him in before the shootings. Meek previously told The Associated Press that Roof had drunkenly complained that "blacks were taking over the world" and "someone needed to do something about it for the white race."
Roof faces federal hate crime charges as well as nine counts of murder in state court in the June 17 shootings.
On Aug. 6, Meek received a letter that he was the target of an investigation.
Meek told the AP that Roof occasionally stayed with him at a mobile home in Red Bank, about 20 miles from Columbia, before the shootings at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church.
Meek, of Lexington, told the AP that Roof said he used birthday money from his parents to buy a .45-caliber Glock semi-automatic handgun. Meek said he took the gun away from Roof the night of his drunken rant but gave it back to him when he had sobered up.
Meek also said he called authorities after recognizing Roof from surveillance footage from the church.
Meek's girlfriend, Lindsey Fry, said he called her on his cellphone Thursday afternoon and said it looked like federal agents were approaching him as he was at his job repairing air conditioners.
"They want to talk to me, but I think I'm going to jail," Fry recalled Meek saying.
He said goodbye and she hasn't heard from Meek since, Fry said outside the mobile home where they live.
He is on probation, having pleaded guilty earlier this year to possessing a stolen vehicle, according to Lexington County court records.
No other family or friends who spent extensive time with Roof at the mobile home have received target letters, Fry said.

Cerritos College graduation rate is below the national average.
19% of full-time students enrolled for the first time to Cerritos College completed the education program and got a degree in 150 percent of the expected time of completion.
Graduation rate is the percentage of institution's new-entering, first-time, first-year undergraduate students who complete their program within 150% of the published time for the program. Graduation rate excludes an extensive number of students. This indicator doesn't take into account students of nontraditional enrollments - part-time students, students who enroll mid-year, and who transfer from one institution to another. So graduation rate alone can create a misleading perception. Completion rate in the form of total number of students receiving any types of awards/degrees creates a complete picture. Combining this data with graduation rate is a better way to compare institutions.
The student-to-faculty ratio at Cerritos College is 28:1, that means that for every 28 students the institution has one professor, lecturer or specialist with a degree in education. Lower student-to-faculty ratio is better - it means that professors can dedicate more time and attention to each student.

Q: How to unnest multiple columns in presto, outputting into corresponding rows I'm trying to unnest some code
I have a a couple of columns that have arrays, both columns using | as a deliminator
The data would be stored looking like this, with extra values to the side which show the current currency
I want to output it like this
I tried doing another unnest column, like this
SELECT c.campaign, c.country, a.product_name, u.price--, u.price -- add price to this split. handy for QBR

FROM c, UNNEST(split(price, '|')) u(price), UNNEST(split(product_name, '|')) a(product_name)

group by 1,2, 3, 4

but this duplicated several rows, so I'm not sure if unnesting the two columns doesn't quite work
Thanks

A: The issue with your query is that the clause FROM c, UNNEST(...), UNNEST(...) is effectively computing the cross join between each row of c and the rows produced by each of the derived tables resulting from the UNNEST calls.
You can solve it by unnesting all your arrays in a single call to UNNEST, thus, producing a single derived table. When used in that manner, the UNNEST produces a table with one column for each array and one row for each element in the arrays. If the arrays have a different length, it will produce rows up to the number of elements in the largest array and fill in with NULL for the column of the smaller array.
To illustrate, for your case, this is what you want:
WITH data(a, b, c) AS (
    VALUES
        ('a|b|c', '1|2|3', 'CAD'),
        ('d|e|f', '4|5|6', 'USD')
)
SELECT t.a, t.b, data.c
FROM data, UNNEST(split(a, '|'), split(b, '|')) t(a, b)

which produces:
 a | b |  c
---+---+-----
 a | 1 | CAD
 b | 2 | CAD
 c | 3 | CAD
 d | 4 | USD
 e | 5 | USD
 f | 6 | USD

Dettori stayed back but took over Marcus on PRIVILEGE by the 200 metres and stood the challenge from Oliver's ROYAL SNACK.
They completed the 2400M in 2.26.10.
Clive Brittain thanked HKJC's approval of the 3 days earlier arrival for LUSO's settle down and acclimatization.
Though losing 8 kg, its easy and steady temperament still made its victory.
'Frankie is incorrigible but a good jockey, give him a good horse and he won't let you down,' said the trainer.
Mick Kinane won the second victory at the very cramped odds of 1.4 (2/5 favourite).
Kinane pulled out LUSO from a wall of horses in the final 200M. He urged it under 4 heavy whippings and won by a head over T Quinn's POSIDONAS and D Nikolic's SUNNY LANE.
The time was 2.26.30, slightly slower than its Vase Race of 1996.
Clive Brittain was confident that he had plenty of horse, but it was more of whether the heavens would open a gap to let him the chance of winning.
The narrow victory was a one day present for his 64 birthday. 'But such a beautiful triumph made him older more than a year!', he claimed.

The meat in this terrine needs to be very finely cubed, but not minced so finely that it loses all texture. Any combination of venison, feathered game and rabbit or hare will be just the thing.
Boil the madeira and port in a small pan for 2-3 minutes, until reduced by two-thirds. Cool.
Line a slender, 1.3kg loaf tin neatly with foil, leaving enough overhanging the tin to fold back over and enclose the filling. Cover the foil with the streaky bacon, overlapping the rashers, and again overhanging the tin; halve two rashers to line the short ends of the tin.
Melt the butter in a small pan and soften the onions for 3-4 minutes, without colouring them. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 150°C/gas 2. In a large bowl, combine the game, pork, back bacon, livers, egg, allspice, rosemary, peppercorns, salt, reduced alcohol, onion mixture and a generous grind of black pepper. Pack it into the tin, then give it a whack on a chopping board, to expel any trapped air. Fold the bacon over to cover the filling, then fold over the overhanging foil.
Put the tin in a deep roasting tin, then pour around enough just-boiled water to come halfway up. Bake in the oven for about 1 3/4 hours or until a fine skewer inserted into the centre comes out piping hot and the juices run clear. Take the terrine out of the bain-marie, weight it down with a few tins and leave to cool at room temperature for 3–4 hours. Cover (still weighted down) and chill overnight or for up to 2 days.
To serve, upturn the terrine onto a board, discard the foil and wipe the terrine clean with kitchen paper if necessary. Slice into 12.
A fresh, lively beaujolais, served lightly chilled, provides the ideal counterpoint for this complex terrine.

Cornell Capa's Peruvian suitcase
I spend quite a bit of time with photobooks, whether it be for this blog, it's slightly less wordy Tumblr cousin, or just for my personal pleasure, but it is not often that I get to spend a day with a book like this one. In fact, it is not a book but a maquette for a book that was never published. Entitled Mario, it is a children's photobook by Cornell Capa that tells the story of a young Peruvian boy named Mario. I'm not sure why it was never published but I understand that this maquette spent most of it's life sitting on a shelf and that it has only recently resurfaced. So when I was given the opportunity to borrow the book for a day, I jumped at the opportunity.
Cornell Capa is probably best known for founding the International Center of Photography in New York in 1974 and perhaps also for being Robert Capa's younger brother, but he was also a photographer and a member of Magnum Photos in his own right. His approach to photography was articulated in his 1968 book, The Concerned Photographer, which he described as a book of "images in which genuine human feeling predominates over commercial cynicism or disinterested formalism". Mario is very much in line with this philosophy.
The book is made up of approximately 60 images by Cornell Capa. The photographs are predominantly black-and-white although it also includes a handful of colour images. The photographs are accompanied by a narrative written by Sam Holmes which follows a Quechuan Indian boy named Mario who dreams of going to America where he will buy a tractor for his father. The story follows Mario from his family's simple life on the farm to his school and then on to the city of Cuzco in southeastern Peru for the Corpus Christi Festival, ending with Mario returning home. When in Cuzco, Mario happens to meet an American boy who is about the same age as him, his first encounter with the country he has been dreaming of visiting.
Although the text is clearly aimed at children, there are also some quite dense historical passages. One section deals with the richness of the ancient Inca civilization while another describes the rituals of the Corpus Christi festival. One of the most fascinating things about Mario, is that beneath the childlike language, the book has a strong political message. Returning home after his encounter with the young American during which he experiences some of the comforts of the Western consumerist lifestyle after sleeping over with his family in a hotel in Cuzco, Mario grows to appreciate the simple, ancient beauty and traditions of the rural land where he is from and his urge to travel to the city or to America fades. Today's right-wing American cable news networks would be outraged by the book's progressive, 'socialist' message.
I'm not sure exactly when the maquette for Mario was made (my guess would be in the late 1950s or 1960s), but it is an extremely interesting window onto American politics at the time and to the forthcoming interventionist American foreign policy of the 1970s. Although it is aimed at children, the book is essentially a progressive political tract... you could even go so far as to call it political propaganda.
The maquette is an interesting insight into the photobook-making process of the pre-digital era. The design is done by using a set of prints made specifically for the layout which are then stuck into the pages of the dummy book. The text is laid out in the same fashion. The design is pretty dynamic: the book doesn't follow a 'one-page-per-picture' format but plays with different formats and layouts for the images. Having spent most of its life on a shelf, the prints are in excellent condition, even those in colour. As an added bonus, I have featured more images of Mario than usual as this is not a book that you are likely to be able to get your hands on.
What makes this maquette particularly exciting is that I believe that, aside from the odd exhibition catalogue, Capa did not publish any photobooks of his work. With Horacio Fernandez's The Latin American Photobook coming out next week and Parr & Badger's The Photobook: A History Vol. 3 — with a chapter devoted to 'propaganda' — currently in the making, Mario is a timely (re)discovery.
