I have recently been transferred from another shelter after spending several months there, watching all of the little kittens get adopted and no one wanting me. I suspect it's because I'm an older gentleman.
I feel fit as a fiddle and my blood tests show that I am in great health with a perfect dental record!
I am a super smooch and just love belly rubs. If you are looking for a loving senior companion, then look no further - I'm your man!
Call the Adoption Hub to enquire about me - 9321 7240.


You have probably known this song a long time, but I heard it for the first time today at just the right time - right after hearing that my youngest daughter's closest male friend's father had passed on after life support was turned off, and as we wait any minute for a dear friend of hers from work to pass after a long battle with cancer. She had adopted her as a second mother when she moved so far away from us here, which makes it harder on her. We just lost Grandpa very recently after years of Parkinson's and after that, my best friend of cancer. It was perfect timing for this song sent by our ever loving and caring Father. I wish I could share it with the world...LOL...I guess that's what I try to do here every day! But this song is indeed...a blessing!
I hope you're going on well.
Thank you, Lynette! And, thanks for posting the lyrics to one of my favorite songs! This song often goes thru my mind when i am deep in grief - it's such a good reminder that He is with us through it all and Romans 8:28 is valid 100% of the time - even when it doesn't seem like it!


If you haven't been a victim of credit-card fraud yet, just wait. You probably will be at some point in your life. About 9 million Americans are victims of identity theft each year. To help protect consumers, the credit card companies (Visa, MasterCard, AmEx and Discover) have joined to form the Payment Card Industry (PCI) working group. They set standards for how credit cards and cardholder informaiton is to be handled. If you accept payments on your website, even through PayPal, you need to adhere to these guidelines to protect your customers' payment information. Now I admit, none of us need more rules and regulations to live under. We have better things to do with our energies than go through a checklist that's been handed to us by some anonymous, faceless cabal. But sometimes it's really in our best interest, and in this case, in everybody's best interest.

Q: how to plot a graph with a CSV file? I want to plot a diagram in android with GraphView  library http://www.android-graphview.org/ . but the number of points of diagram is more than 12000 and it isn't possible to add all single points manually. my data saved in storage (with custom format) as shown below :
0.000,116.288
0.008,122.422
0.016,126.721
...

I get the data from https://physionet.org/cgi-bin/atm/ATM
with this setting:
Signals:ABP
Time format:seconds
Toolbox:Export signals as CSV
and I need to read them from file and convert data as shown below for plotting diagram :
new DataPoint(0.000,116.288),
new DataPoint(0.008,122.422),
new DataPoint(0.016,126.721)...

I copied my CSV file in asset folder and read it. then I convert them into Double and try to plot diagram with data.
but the diagram is not correct . I think the problems appears when I want to add new Datapoint, because it need to add a comma "," after each line
pls advise how I can add it?

besides,sometimes after running the application it has stopped.

}

A: You have to tackle this one step by step.
First you want to read a CSV file. Search for "parse csv file java" and you'll find many tutorials on how to do this.
As you parse through the csv file you'll want to build an array (or two) from the values collected.
Use these values in a for loop to generate new data points. So instead of manually entering each value, you'll have something that looks more like this:
DataPoint[] dp = new DataPoint[yourCSVArray.size()];

for (int i = 0; i < yourCSVArray.size(); i++) {
    dp[i] = new DataPoint(variableX, variableY);
}

LineGraphSeries<DataPoint> series = new LineGraphSeries<>(dp);

graph.addSeries(series);

Now that you have some direction, try piecing some code together and if you run into trouble post your code for help.

Happy Day to you all. My Husband oldest daughter and I have had a great day of counting out blessing and realizing how lucky we are to have out Haddey.
Thanks for the comment. You guys sound like great parents!
I wouldn't say great parents, we are doing our best. But we do have great kids that are very excepting of our mistakes.
Rick Question for you and I hope I do not offend any parent out there.
Do you find that people feel the need to remind you or tell you that your child has DS, then they fallow with but they are so beautiful anyways. Or People have the need to ask you if your child has DS. I find people are compelled to tell me that they know someone who know has a DS child and its fallowed with …..and they love that child. Well of course they to. Why wouldn't they. Am I awful I find myself annoyed with them. Feel why would strangers ask such questions? To be blunt one time I asked. Is your husband circumcised? The lady told me that was none of my business, I told her. Likewise my daughters medical information is none of yours…..I am very Proud of Haddey and I can not help both of my girls are cute and strangers say hi to them, But I feel when the words" what is wrong with her" comes out. Mama Bear comes out and a line has ben crossed. Am I wrong for this?
My son, who was born with Down Syndrome last May, is about to celebrate his first birthday. I want to thank you for what you've done for my me, my wife, and our entire family.
When we received the prenatal diagnosis at Christmas of 2013 we thought that our world was ending. But we came across your blog and we began to discover others as well. And they all did confirm that some of our world was ending, but a more spectacular one was presenting itself to us. In essence, our son was the blessing our lives needed. And our year has been the most joyful we've known. I don't know that we would have made it to that point if not for folks like you sharing your story.
Thank you. Words can't capture our gratitude.
I am the proud mother of a almost 3yr old son with DS. I knew prenatal at abt 4 months n could not have lived myself if I had chosen termination based on diagnosis alone. For these special gifts from above do live, love and laugh. While I cannot judge a person that choses to terminate because everyone mentally may not b able to grasp n accept it , I was not that person. I love him more when I found out for he was fighting to live, fighting to b with me( my only child at 40yrs old) n I was fighting f him. If I was unwilling to fight f him in the womb, then how could I expect anyone else to fight for him?
I was always told by doctors that I would never be able to get pregnant. After not having my monthly for 15 years you can imagine my surprise, though sad, when I woke with terrible pain an lots of blood in the middle of the night. I went to the hospital where they told me that I was having a miscarriage. This was shocking as I had no symptoms at all and again I had always been told I could not concieve. This was traumatic for me and I did not even want to ask how long they thought this child was along. I was 34 at the time an age where they say having a child with special needs is more possible than if a younger woman were pregnant. One week later I got married and I was still not myself. Then the surprise, the very next month I became pregnant again. I was afraid to breathe for fear I would miscarry again. They stuck me with a huge needle that would give me information on whether my child would have special needs as I was an older mom to be. The results were positive and I went on to carry my miracle child, now 16. I still think of the child that I had miscarried. I soothe myself by telling myself that she or he is in heaven with my mother who always loved kids. I have also thought what would I do if the results of the needle tests showed that I would have a special needs child. I would like to think that I would have the strength to refuse an abortion. I am Christian and I think a life is a life no matter how long a child has been in my stomach. I truly don't think that I would have an abortion just because my child may have special needs. I see some beautiful children and families on here and these special kids are wonderful. They may be differently abled but they are humans capable of giving and recieving much love. So I think mom has my first baby who I miscarried with her in heaven and I have one child with me on earth. I never got pregnant again though I wanted to. I am blessed to have the son that I have and I have a nephew with special needs who I couldn't possibly love more. These children are capable of learning and being a part and bringing much love into a family. I love Noah, he is so adorable. There are so many children with different needs but I think love and patience from those who care for them can work wonders. They are deserving as is everyone else.
Once again thank you!!! This is MY BEAUTY!!!
I teach special ed. I have a love for Noah that can't be explained. I don't know you but feel as if we were family. Your Family has touched my heart!


Reduced overall operating expenses by 11 percent.
How did they do it? In the August issue of industry newsletter Distribution Center Management, distribution manager, Mark Speagle and Kevin von Grabe, vice president of lean deployment for consulting firm LeanCor tell the story.
"We quite literally went through every key function in the DC. We spent half a day interviewing people and walking through their processes to understand how the work was being done," says von Grabe.
The evaluation included review of how long each process took from a value-added versus a non-value-added perspective. For example, when a product was received, how long did it take to process? How long did it then sit in receiving? If it took two minutes to receive the product, but it then sat for two hours in receiving, that is two minutes of productivity and two hours of waste.
According to von Grabe, most of the findings were centered around layout with small changes accounting for significant savings.

The NIOSH NORA Manufacturing Sector Council members want to help small food manufacturers with LO/TO, and through this blog we are seeking input from our stakeholders to enhance our understanding of the issues surrounding LO/TO in the food and beverage processing industry.
A robust lockout/tagout program that protects the safety and health of workers is an important part of machine maintenance. Machine injuries related to lockout/tagout often occur when an employee services or repairs a machine or tries to clear a jam but fails to de-energize the machine and lock out sources of energy.
Smaller businesses face the challenge of remaining competitive in the food and beverage processing industry, and we know most companies are struggling to keep up with a bustling pace and narrow profit margins.
Pace equals profit in this industry, but workers need to stay safe while maintaining their pace. The efficient work that keeps businesses viable and competitive requires well maintained machines and equipment.
Pace does not have to be a tradeoff for safety; optimal levels of both can be achieved. If something falls off the assembly line and a machine gets jammed, a quick solution may seem like a good option. Given the production pressures in this industry, workers may feel that managers would rather have them risk injury than stop production to properly apply LO/TO procedures. A worker may simply try to clear the jam without taking the time to lock out sources of hazardous energy. But when energy sources are not locked out, any unexpected startup of a machine or other equipment can result in amputations or death. Employers who 'get it' know that it is far more valuable to control hazardous energy with LO/TO procedures than to risk both the personal and financial loss that can result from machine-related injury. An injury, death, or even a fine from a violation can quickly nullify gains from increased work speed.
Save a life: Block that energy!
Training (including skills demonstration) in the primary language(s) of employees.
Companies with established lockout programs have told us that having written procedures ahead of time allows for machine maintenance and service to proceed without delay. Share with us the type of lockout/tagout program you have in your business. What resources were used to implement the program that could help small business improve their practices? What works well about it? What has made it difficult to maintain the program? Sharing your experiences with LO/TO will help NIOSH and our partners better understand the issues so that we can provide the best guidance and resources to help save lives.

Mr. Braun is an Adjunct Professor at the Keene State College and a member of the NORA Manufacturing Sector Council.
OSHA standards require the use of either lockout or tagout. OSHA requirements can be found at https://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show_document?p_table=STANDARDS&p_id=9804. OSHA provides a sample lockout procedure at https://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show_document?p_table=STANDARDS&p_id=9805. NIOSH recommends that any hazardous control program include lockout and tagout to ensure maximum protection. Also note that some State plans may have more stringent requirements than those found in 29 CFR 1910.147.
The NIOSH Fatality and Assessment Control Evaluation (FACE) program investigates fatalities, identifies contributing factors, and makes recommendations for prevention. NIOSH FACE reports related to machines and manufacturing are listed here, and State FACE reports related to machines and manufacturing are listed here.
Health Safety should be prioritized by the manufacturers.
Health Safety is paramount in manufacturing.
Working in any manufacturing warehouse is dangerous when you don't follow lock-out and tag-out procedures because it's so easy to get injured. I have seen many people try to rush a repair but fail to de-energize the power source and get injured.
Before the work we'd better figure out how to lockout/tagout procedures. And also training to work safely.
we can say this is an icon manufacturers. Cause every manufacturers have to concern about his safety first. Thanks for sharing a very informative article with us.
I have a Graphics Designing Company although my company is slide different of this company but I follow this strategy.
The FDA and OSHA must do a better job. I understand that resources are limited. It's now just a matter of priorities. Thanks for a very informative blog post.
I seriously appreciate your information.., Thanks for sharing such a useful info….
Really concise information here, thanks for the read.
Simple truth : Machines need maintenance for the safety of the workers and owner's peace of mind.
Excellent contents! It is really critical. Many people try to rush a repair but fail to de-energize the power source and get injured. Thanks for sharing it. I support it.
This issue is worth a lot of concern, as number of food manufacturing units is huge. Injuries in such units are very probable requiring special attention. If you are owner of one such unit, then conduct survey to find the resin behind occurrence o f such incidences.
For any manufacturer industry first priority is Safety. Some times less precaution mad big health issues. So we have to follow all government safety procedure for better result because every worker is important for us.
Great post, i appreciate the effort and knowledge you are sharing with this post. Yes i agreed with your thought for any industry or manufacturing company, employee safety is most required.
And in term of this safety precaution as you said, machine maintenance is required. Time to time check up your machine, keep maintenance for all instrument used into your company.
Interesting read and very informative article.
Health and safety is extremely lax in some workplaces. It needs to be dealt with with a very high priority. I have come across some dodgy practices in themworkplace in my time.
Great post. But you can learn more about the issues regarding electrical safety, and how to meet the requirements of key electrical safety standards.
Really this is very critical issue and to be taken care off properly. Good piece on info shared here. Thanks to the author for sharing.
Health and safety is extremely lax in some workplaces.
Awareness and proper training of workers will eliminate accidents on the job. Frequent reminders and signage at strategic spot within the workplace would help too.
Great article. I agree, it is so important to have written procedures. And as others have said, health and safety really needs to be taken more seriously in some industries.
Good article, i agree with the opinion, we should not reliable with the machine cause machine didn't have brain and sometime can failure. What should we do is combine machine and human works and organizing all activity in places works so will happen something we didn't want.
ugh, don't know why mcdonalds come to mind when reading this..
Agree, we really need to be keeping on top of our machine maintenance to avoid incidents. It is a serious issue in some industries. Thanks for the post.
Good post. thank you for sharing information.
Safety should always come first especially in an industry such as this. More education is needed so injuries become less and less frequent.
This is a very great post, we do need a lot of education all over the world!!
Time to time check up your machine, keep maintenance for all instrument used into your company. And in term of this safety precaution as you said, machine maintenance is required.
News about companies with established lockout programs have told us that having written procedures ahead of time allows for machine maintenance and service to proceed without delay.
Thanks for article. Program good.
Safety and stuff training should be top priority when operating different machines. Of course it would take more time to train stuff but hey, it's better than having someone injuring himself.
this is the good article.. safety first.. what ever we do..
Thanks for the post. It is always a really good reminder to keep safe at work and if you are asked to do something unsafe at work, bring it to your managers or the HSE department's attention.
I have gone through your blog "A Wrench in the Gear: Lockout/tagout in the food industry" this is such a good topic. I really enjoyed a lot and the blog is really very interesting.
Thanks for sharing information.I have seen for lot of tips related lockout tagout safety.These tips are really amazing. I appreciate it for sharing them.
I work in manufacturing and all our machines are serviced by an outsourced local professional under contract. A small cost as opposed to an unfortunate accident.
Thank you for your interest in our blog and for taking the time to submit a comment. Of course, our blog does not mean to imply that all facilities dedicated to food manufacturing are dangerous, but we based our Blog on the data from OSHA's Accident Investigation database. Food manufacturing unfortunately leads among manufacturing industries (see 2nd paragraph of the Blog). We also looked at the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data for injuries and illness, and fatalities. There are fluctuations across years but manufacturing rates (the quantity of cases measured with respect to the total number of workers in that industry) are often among the highest, but total numbers are not; http://www.bls.gov/iif/#data). The leading cause of days away from work cases often is contact with objects (which includes failure to use Lockout-Tagout), with food manufacturing having a high rate. Now, regarding fatalities, manufacturing is not the industrial sector that leads in fatalities, but when it happens, again, the leading cause of death is contact with objects and equipment. You can see the breakdown at http://www.bls.gov/iif/oshwc/cfoi/cftb0268.pdf). Our intent in pointing this out is to encourage all to take actions that ensure their safety and health.
Nice info, a tool should have got the certification of government agencies.
I don't believe people working in the food manufacturing industries are more exposed to health hazards.
Interesting article post and enjoyed reading the post.
The reference links on this web page are so good, this is a very nice information to share, would like to bookmark this content.
Totally agreed….very informative article, safety of the employee is must to get an quality output weather it is a food industry or any other.
great article…safety precautions are must in every industry especially in manufacturing industries, the energy sources should be managed and maintained properly. Thank you for the article.
its a too much great article In fact its true energy sources should be managed and maintained properly. Thank you for sharing the article.
Education all over the world!!
I concur. employees safety is a must if maximum output is expected.Thanks for the information.
great article and smart Education.
Thank you very much for sharing this article. The food industry must be renewed.
Good luck, Niosh with your science blog!
I agree, it is so important to have written procedures. Great and informative article. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Keep continuing with this great information.
Food manufacturing workers need proper protection from injury and maltreatment. The bosses need to take responsibility for health and safety and stop making lots of money.
I love that you want to help small food manufacturers. Great blog.
Good article!safety precautions are must in every industry especially in manufacturing industries, the energy sources should be managed and maintained properly. Thank you for the article.
Now, regarding fatalities, manufacturing is not the industrial sector that leads in fatalities, but when it happens, again, the leading cause of death is contact with objects and equipment.
Meals production employees require correct safety through damage as well as maltreatment. The actual employers have to consider obligation with regard to safety and health and prevent producing a lot of money.
I thinks all the safety precautions are always not enought.
Maybe with standars like iso13485 all this thinks would be better.
Great article, most important part is machine maintenance. Thanks for sharing this idea.
I like this blog. This is very excellent Article. You Made some Great points and I am thankful for your information!
Really i am impressed to read this article. I think Food manufacturing workers need to more knowledge about using the machine.
Basically, Food manufacturing workers are not so knowledgeable about using the machine and others related things. It is so bad luck for them .your post is so important for this.thanks a lot.
Very interesting article and helpful, I got a lot of experience and knowledge from your article.
I think Food manufacturing workers need to more knowledge about using the machine.
I agree it's important to have a good safety procedure like the lockout program.
safety and the well-being of workers should be made a must and top priority. Nothing else is more important than human lives. I believe that well-taken care workers will put in their best and make more profits for companies. Manufacturing companies should consider safety as top priority. They have always missed out on this. Most manufacturing companies are very self,-centred. This is bad. Lots of workers in the industry have had one injury or the other. I believe that machines should be in top conditions before workers are allowed to use them. Also, machines should be checked and rechecked, periodically. This is good for workers safety.
Thanks for this powerful topic.
Lockout & tagout procedures are certainly key in keeping folks on the job in the food processing industry safe.
Excellent work on food making machines it is also helpful for as well as food industery wrokers.
An upgrade in manufacturing equipment could certainly speed up the process. Especially for food manufacturers. A more advanced and automatic equipment could be its solution to the hygiene problem. And at the same time would reduce risk of injury of labor workers. It needs a huge investment though.
thansk for information about A Wrench in the Gear: Lockout/tagout in the food industry.
According to me the safety of the workers working in a company is most important thing and for this the owner of the company must keep eye on the maintenance of the machines. I am owner of a food packaging company and I always take care of my employees.
Following a long period of time working in the oil and gas industry I can say that most of the time LOTO (lock out tag out) procedures do work. However there are times when over zealous permit authorities take the principle to the extreme and the application then hinders the smooth operation of the plant. A good management system with more than one responsible party can fix this problem.
I like this blog. This is very excellent Article. The food industry must be renewed.
The bosses need to take responsibility for health and safety and stop making lots of money.
Thanks for information A Wrench in the Gear: Lockout/tagout in the food industry. This post is helpful.
this blog is very interesting and helpful. hope Indonesia can doing like that.
Very interested blog for manufacturing companies. We are also working in the same field. [name removed] has its root in gear manufacturing, precision machining and fabricating spares for various heavy industries.
safety come first. thats the rules.
Safety is everything. I am an engineer that works in big projects, a "little" thing like helmet could be a big life safer. Thank you for the post.
Great post. This is disturbing though "The food manufacturing industry includes animal slaughtering as well as the processing and packaging of meat, dairy, fruit, vegetable, grain, seafood, beverages, and bakery products. The industry employs nearly 1.5 million workers. " Great post, i appreciate the effort and knowledge you are sharing with this post. Yes i agreed with your thought for any industry or manufacturing company, employee safety is most required.
Very interested blog for manufacturing companies.
I am totally impress with those food industry,they are improved their worker rights like ,workers in food manufacturing have a higher rate of injuries and illnesses than workers in private industry as a whole.
Much obliged to you for sharing such a useful article..
As indicated by me the wellbeing of the laborers working in an organization is most critical thing and for this the proprietor of the organization must watch out for the upkeep of the machines. I am proprietor of a sustenance bundling organization and I generally deal with my representatives.
I agree it is so important to have written procedures. Great and informative article. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Keep continuing with this great information.
Great and informative article. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Keep continuing with this great information.
Great! Such a Nice article to share with all.These kinds of knowledgeable blogs found very less nowadays.
Thank you for your post , now i am confirm about Lockout in the food industry. Its post good.
Superb post and an amazing site.Keep it up and please keep writing for us.
Nice post and I seriously appreciate your information. this post is helpful.

The Madrid attack was a car bombing carried out by the armed Basque separatist group ETA in Madrid, Spain on 6 February 1992, which killed 5 people and injured a further 7. The target was a military vehicle transporting members of the army. The dead included three captains, a soldier driving the vehicle and a civilian working for the armed forces. This was ETA's deadliest attack of 1992.

Background
ETA had begun intensifying attacks in the early 1990s in the run up to the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona to try to gain wider publicity for their cause. This attack was the first that they had carried out in 1992 in Madrid and came weeks after the civil guard and Basque police had infiltrated an extortion ring set up to fund ETA.

The attack
The vehicle used in the attack, an Opel Kadett, had been stolen at gunpoint in September 1991 in the Basque town of Zarautz. It was then hidden and had its number plates changed. On the day of the attack, the car was loaded with between 40 and 50 kilos of explosives and a variety of screws, bolts, and nails. It was parked only minutes before the explosion in Plaza de la Cruz Verde, just 200 metres from the General captaincy, the headquarters of the army in Madrid. ETA detonated the bomb remotely when the military vehicle passed. The bomb killed all those in the vehicle, injured seven passersby and caused extensive damage to nearby buildings.

Reactions
The attack took the number of people killed by ETA in 1992 to ten. Spanish Prime Minister Felipe Gonzalez expressed anger at the attack, reiterating that it would not lead to the government changing its stance. He called for judicial action against those responsible for such attacks, such as Herri Batasuna, the political wing of ETA. The leader of the opposition, José María Aznar, called for a decision to be made on whether Batasuna should remain legal as a political party. The King of Spain, Juan Carlos, sent a telegram of condolence to the families of those killed. In the Basque Country, Basque President José Antonio Ardanza Garro condemned the attack, stating that such attacks were ultimately "suicidal" for ETA.

On August 4th, the City Commission designated the Northwood Hills neighborhood as the 13th Historic District in the City of West Palm Beach. Northwood Hills comprises the area from 29th Street on the South to 39th Court on the North. The east side of Windsor is the Western boundary, and Greenwood Avenue is the Eastern boundary. The Neighborhood Association has worked several years to achieve the distinction of historic designation. The Historic District will encompass 592 properties, 19 vacant lots, and City-owned Sullivan Park. This is the first district to be designated since 1996. Northwood Hills has a number of Mission Revival houses, a significant collection of Post-World War II architecture, a unique street layout, and one of the highest elevations in the City. The Northwood Hills neighborhood has also elected to allow the establishment of Bed and Breakfast establishments within the neighborhood.

Government to un-redact text messages, notes of PMO staff at Emergencies Act inquiry
Lawyers for "Freedom Convoy" organizers have won their bid to get access to unredacted versions of 20 documents at the Public Order Emergency Act.
Lawyer Brendan Miller applied to have the public inquiry release information in government documents that it had blacked-out, arguing the information should not be protected by parliamentary privilege.
Commissioner Paul Rouleau says the Government of Canada has agreed to release the unredacted documents voluntarily.
The documents include written notes and text message exchanges that belong to the prime minister's staff.
Today marks the final day of seven weeks of commission fact-finding and policy hearings, and the commissioner and his team have until early February to produce their final report.
That means any new information is unlikely to be put to witnesses, but can be considered by the commissioner and included in written arguments by the various groups that took part in the commission.

Q: Establish if True or False: Any polynomial of degree $n$ with leading coefficient $(-1)^n$ is the characteristic polynomial This is an exercise from Linear Algebra by Friedberg, Insel.
The question asks to determine if True or False: Any polynomial of degree $n$ with leading coefficient $(-1)^n$ is the characteristic polynomial of some linear operator.
I know that it is true after scouring the internet and trying to understand how to prove the result, but this is where I'm having trouble. From the different material I've read it says that the result can be proven by induction. How is the induction actually working? The following is where I run astray:
Take a polynomial of degree $n$ with leading coefficient $(-1)^n$. That gives us
$$(-1)^{n}(a_0 + a_{1}t + \dots a_{n}t^{n})$$.
Right now this is just a general polynomial. The only notions that stick out to me as being indicative of a polynomial being the characteristic polynomial of a linear operator is by

*

*calculating the characteristic polynomial explicitly for the linear operator by the $\det(T-\lambda I)$ process

*The Cayley Hamilton Theorem (which I just learned about in the chapter I'm working on):  $f(T) = T_{0}$ where $f(t)$ is the characteristic polynomial and $T_{0}$ is the zero linear operator.
Out of those two ideas the one that seems it could be most viable would be the Cayley Hamilton, but that would mean I need to assume that the polynomial is a characteristic polynomial Which is what I'm trying to prove.
There was another question posted on this years ago: Given any polynomial of degree $n \geq 1$ we can have a corresponding matrix with characteristic polynomial equal to the given polynomial
but the hints in that refer to the companion matrix, something I haven't encountered before.
How could I do the induction proof correctly? Or better how should I set things up because I feel that's where the problem is.


Are you interested in learning enough about wines that you could hold your own in conversation? Perhaps you are interested in impressing friends and family. Maybe you are cooking something special. The following information can prepare you well with wine.
If you are having seafood at dinner, Pinot Grigio goes really well with it. The flavors complement each other well. Ocean dishes are also complemented by other white wines. White wine paired with seafood can be heavenly.
Research the shops around you. This is essential since they differ from each one. Variety and pricing will vary between shops. This is important because you may be narrowing your options too much if you are visiting only one store to buy wine. Think about this when you are considering your next wine purchase.
Inexpensive wine can be quite tasty, contrary to popular belief. If you are looking for a good tasting wine at a good price, look toward Chile. It costs significantly less than comparable bottles, as well. When in doubt, opt for a Cabernet Sauvignon or a Sauvignon Blanc. Certain countries such as New Zealand and South Africa produce high quality wine at low prices.
Think about what you like when shopping for wine. Recommendations will come thick and fast regarding wineries and regions, but it really is down to what you like. If the wine you love is cheap and tastes great to you, buy it because it makes you happy! The end goal, after all, is to enjoy what you're drinking.
You should serve wine at its ideal temperature for best taste. It is best to serve a red wine at 60 degrees. You should start with the wine being at 58 degrees and let it warm in the glass. White wines are best served at 47 degrees. They don't taste good if they are too warm.
Take a trip to the regions that are growing the wine. Seeing the place the wine's grapes where harvested will allow you to really understand them. A visit will allow you to understand the wine you are interested in better. You will certainly have a wonderful time.
If you want a lighter wine, the color has no bearing. Red and white wines contain the same alcohol content. However, the white wines are often gentler on the palate and smoother in taste. Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio are the lightest options available, so consider them for your table.
Red and white wines are made from different grapes. Purple grapes are used to make red wine and that gives it a stronger body. Green grapes are used to produce the light and crisp white wines. That's the basics between the two, but there are so many more differences.
The more you know about an interest, the more it can be enjoyed. It's a wonderful thing, and you must be sure to use wine to your advantage. You can impress your date, your friend, and yourself with all of the advice you've just read.

College Football Tournament: How to Make an Exciting Postseason Without Destroying the Game
By Brandon Larrabee Apr 5, 2012, 10:31am EDT
Share All sharing options for: College Football Tournament: How to Make an Exciting Postseason Without Destroying the Game
It looks increasingly like the question for college football is not whether there will be a playoff system, but what that playoff system will look like. And how the bowls will factor into it. And all the other questions that you have to answer when you start trying to change the college football postseason, which is less like tip over dominoes and more like everyone trying to play Jenga at the same time.
And while I don't think that a large playoff (eight or more teams) would be a good thing for college football -- in fact, I think it would be an unmitigated disaster for the sport -- I have reconciled myself to the idea of a smaller field. And there is one frequent spring critique that resonates just a little: Wouldn't it be fun if college football had something sort of like the NCAA basketball tournament.
College football and college basketball are different sports and almost demand different postseasons. Year2 has thoroughly explained this, and I don't feel the need to rehash it too much, despite the fact that I agree on the problem with a large college football playoff and could write a few thousands words on that alone.
But what if there were some way to create a similar dynamic to March Madness while keeping the actual playoff field relatively exclusive?
I think there might be, building in part off of a six-team playoff idea I pitched almost four years ago. And I'd love for you to help me figure out how it might have worked in practice this year. Sure, it's just spit-balling and mostly made up, but if Jim Delany can throw his magical unicorn plan out there, so can we.
The first step, of course, would be to set up the playoff. The reason I settled on six teams was that the number made it unlikely that many two-loss teams would ever make the cut, meaning the margin for error would be very small. That format also allows us to grant a bye week to the No. 1 and No. 2 teams -- something that gives them a more tangible reward for consistently being the sport's best teams than seeding and home-field advantage (both of which I'm skeptical of as anything more than a marginal edge).
The next and more controversial part of my plan would be to eliminate bowls. Lots and lots of bowls. So many bowls that only 40 teams would make the cut, or a third of the FBS before Seattle and the Locational Texases join. If you're in the top third of the country, you probably deserve some kind of reward. Otherwise, I can't really think of a rationale for giving you a bowl invite except that people in Charlotte need something to do in December.
If we've got a half-dozen teams in our tournament, that means we need 34 more teams to get to 40. The four BCS bowls would still be independent of the playoff system under my plan, so we 13 more bowls. (13 + 4 = 17 X 2 = 34)
So which bowls that aren't part of the BCS survive the cut? I started the only way I think is rational to start, going to the oldest remaining bowl and then selecting until we got to the most recent needed. Several bowls ended up removed from the pool, of course, and there's still the little matter that someone is going to Shreveport -- which is to say, the plan is not perfect. But here we are:
2. Cotton Bowl
3. Gator Bowl
4. Capital One Bowl
5. Liberty Bowl
6. Chick-fil-A Bowl
7. Independence Bowl
8. Holiday Bowl
10. Maaco Bowl Las Vegas
11. Alamo Bowl
12. Little Caesar's Bowl
13. Famous Idaho Potato Bowl
Yeah, we're stuck with the potato bowl edging out some of the competition. You could always come up with another way to do it, but the actual destinations don't matter all that much, except that they need to be relatively evenly distributed. Given that we have only three non-BCS Florida bowls left, I'd say that's something close to mission accomplished.
Now, I know the next question that you're going to ask: What do we do about the tie-ins? With a few notable exceptions that I'll get to in a minute, there aren't going to be any.
Instead, all 11 conference champions (or how many ever there are when the conference realignment cycle calms down in a year or two) will automatically head to the postseason. Everyone in the BCS Top 25 will also go to a bowl if they're eligible. Finally, a selection committee will choose how many ever slots are left when all of the automatic teams are sent to the bowl game.
Who's on the selection committee? Again, were I the one controlling the process, you would have three conference commissioners, three athletics directors and three university presidents serve on the committee. The first committee would include one-, two- and three-year terms split evenly among the groups until we got to rolling three-year terms. No conference could have more than one member on the committee at a time, and preference would be given to conferences who didn't have a seat on the committee the year before whenever a seat opened up. The BCS formula would serve sort of like RPI in this scenario -- a guide, but nothing binding.
The bowls then select from those team following a set of criteria that would start with the BCS bowls. The Rose Bowl would get the first two selections as long as it selected a B1G team in the Top 15 and a Pac-12 team in the Top 15. Same for the Fiesta Bowl and the Big 12ish, the Sugar Bowl with the SEC and the Orange Bowl for the ACC. Otherwise, teams will be selected in a preset order that rotates every year.
Next, we need to divide the remaining bowls into tiers. I realize that I'm doing this at my own peril.
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Cotton Bowl Outback Bowl Las Vegas Bowl
Chick-fil-A Bowl Sun Bowl Potato Bowl
Holiday Bowl Alamo Bowl Independence Bowl
Capital One Bowl Gator Bowl Little Caesar's Bowl
Liberty Bowl
Again, this is not set in stone. If your heart is set on having the Independence Bowl in the first or second tier -- well, really, you need a new hobby, but we'll set that aside for now and you can put the Independence Bowl in that tier for discussion's sake.
Tier 1 bowls get to make their selections first. In the first year, the Cotton Bowl would select a team, followed by the Chick-fil-A, Holiday and Capital One. Then, the Capital One Bowl would select another team, followed by the Holiday, Chick-fil-A and Cotton. The next year, Chick-fil-A (or whoever) goes first and Cotton goes last on the first go-round, etc.
Then the Tier 2 bowls do the same thing, followed by the Tier 3 bowls.
Why would the Tier 3 bowls ever go along with this? Well, let's look at the Potato Bowl. They're getting the top team from the WAC and the No. 2 team from the MAC every year (assuming no BCS berth for either conference). Under our scenario, they're going to get the 33rd and 40th selection here. My guess is that they're not going to end up with anything worse from a marketing and television standpoint than the top WAC team vs. the No. 2 MAC and might actually end up with something better.
Sure, some bowl committees are going to be more likely to go with the "home conferences" that they've gotten used to, but the selection committee set-up would make it hard for that to get out of hand. The system is certainly not going to be any more corrupt than what we have now, and I'd argue that it's going to be at least a little better.
The scheduling is another matter, but it's key to making this feel kind of like a tournament. First of all, the games are only played on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays until we get to the grand finales near New Year's Day. One possibility is to allow bowls to go the old way, with each series of bowls growing more significant. The other way is more of a mix and match approach that brings each week to a crescendo in the playoff games. How either would have possibly worked in 2011:
Date System No 1 System No 2
Dec 15 Little Caesar's, Independence Little Caesar's, Independence
Dec 16 Potato, Las Vegas Liberty, Capital One
Dec 17 Liberty, ROUND 1 Orange, ROUND 1
Dec 22 Gator, Alamo Potato, Gator
Dec 23 Sun, Outback, Capital One Alamo, Holiday
Dec 24 Holiday, ROUND 2 Fiesta, ROUND 2
Dec 30 Cotton Las Vegas, Sun
Dec 31 Chick-fil-A, Fiesta Chick-fil-A, Outback
Jan 2 Orange, Sugar, Rose Cotton, Rose, Sugar
Jan 3 Championship Game Championship Game
How might this work out in practice in 2011? Well, all the Top 25 teams before the bowl games would have gotten in. That means: LSU, Alabama, Oklahoma State, Stanford, Oregon, Arkansas, Boise State, Kansas State, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Virginia Tech, Baylor, Michigan, Oklahoma, Clemson, Georgia, Michigan State, TCU, Houston, Nebraska, Southern Miss, Penn State, West Virginia, Texas, Auburn. Teams in bold represent the conference champions, while those in italics are the ones that would go to our championship playoff.
The means that Oklahoma State plays Arkansas in the first round, with the second-round opponent being Alabama, while Stanford and Oregon get a rematch with the winner taking on LSU. (I still think this is likely to produce a rematch, and I don't see the qualitative difference that some see between a rematch via what was decided on the field in the regular season as opposed to a rematch via what would be decided on the field in a playoff, but I digress.)
The other conference champions getting into the bowls are Northern Illinois from the MAC, Louisiana Tech from the WAC and Arkansas State from the Sun Belt.
That gives us another dozen teams to select for the 2011 bowl field -- again, just to see how this would work in practice -- before we can seed our bowls as the bowl officials would likely do. We can't actually convene a selection committee of any sort. But I can ask all of you for your input -- which gives you an opportunity to join in the fun. So who should have gone to our modified postseason if it began in 2011? Also, which scheduling format would you prefer for our bowl system?

Have you asked yourself this question? "Am I really a US voting rights activist descendant?
We said this before, and we're saying it again. You may be a votes for women, first wave women's rights descendant, and not know it.
There are millions of us. Chances are—you haven't yet discovered your essential role in US history.
If you are a hidden descendant, you aren't alone. Tens of thousands of women and their allies spent decades working for the right to vote from 1848 (and before) through 1920. They have descendants, and you, like many others, haven't uncovered this part of your family history.
In 2020, US women will have been voting for 100 years. That you may be descended from the first wave of American voting rights activists shouldn't be passed over lightly. Many families didn't mention this association and organizing priority to their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and other descendants.
Even if you can't make a direct family connection, the first wave of the women's rights movement in the United States is an important and essential part of our national legacy and history…whether you're a young person, woman, man, or wherever you find yourself on the gender continuum.
The chances are excellent that you are descended, either directly or by interest, to the tens of thousands of voting rights activists and their allies who worked and sweated for decades to win the right to vote. If you aren't directly related, you may be a descendent in some other way—spiritual or because of your level of interest.
Our place in history will be celebrated during 2020, and we want to make sure you're part of this turning point in time.

In 2014 Seal & Go opened up two locations at Hamad International Airport, Doha, Qatar. At Qatar we provide our complimentary service Seal & Trace. This unique concept helps trace missing luggage.
Hamad International Airport has been designed to cater for a projected and continuous increase in the volume of traffic. This large airport has an oasis theme. Many of the buildings have a water motif, with wave-styled roofs and desert plants growing in recycled water. You can find us at the VIP check-in as well as at the main check-in.
