Q: how do you join two tables i have a mysql query which is trying to join to tables to show the data from two tables onto one table on the webpage?
<?php
include 'library/connect.php';
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM meetings INNER JOIN rooms USING ('room', 'date', 'time' ) ");

echo "

Title	Chairman	Secretary	Terms of Reference	Named membership	Occurences	Room	Date	Time
";

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
        echo "
";
        echo "" . $row['title']. "	";
        echo "" . $row['chairman']. "	";
        echo "" . $row['secretary']. "	";
        echo "" . $row['termsOfReference']. "	";
        echo "" . $row['occurences']. "	";
        echo "" . $row['room']. "	";
        echo "" . $row['date']. "	";
        echo "" . $row['time']. "	";

echo "
";
}
echo "
";
include 'library/closedb.php';
?>

do i need both table id somewhere?

A: I'd doubt that date and time are columns in your rooms table, so they shouldn't be part of the JOIN condition. Try:
SELECT *
    FROM meetings m
        INNER JOIN rooms r
            ON m.room = r.room

A: By "Using" keyword it will check both tables by column names. It will check inner join on Ist condition then it will get left join on next columns if result not found.
it's bad practice to use "Using" keyword.
Simplify joins by USING.
By
-Multiple columns
-Single column


Jagor's water snake (Enhydris jagorii) is a freshwater snake that is endemic to the Chao Phraya-Ta Chin basin, Thailand. However, habitat change and destruction are the main threats to this snake, where a large area of the wetland has been rapidly transformed into urban and agricultural areas. Moreover, uncontrolled fishing seriously threatens the remaining population of this snake. In order to protect this species, information on its natural history is required. This study was conducted in the Bung Ka Loh wetland during October, 2010 to August, 2014 when 108 specimens of this species were collected. Analysis of the stomach contents revealed that it is piscivorous, with cyprinids being the dominant prey. Prey items were usually less than 10% of the snake body mass and multiple prey items were occasionally found. No significant difference in diet was noted between the sexes. In addition, predation on this snake by Cylindrophis ruffus was first recorded in this study. The smallest gravid female collected had a snout-vent length of 34.0 cm. The clutch size and mass ranged from 1 to 28 embryos and 3.1 to 123.0 g, respectively, and both of these quantities increased significantly with increased female size. Reproduction was possibly seasonal and occurred in the rainy season. A preliminary study of other wetlands in the central plain of Thailand failed to detect the existence of this species. Accordingly, the conservation status of this species should be changed from Data Deficient to Critically Endangered.

All 240,000 tickets for the three-day Garth Brooks Comeback Special Event sold out in 90 minutes. The concerts will take place Friday, July 25; Saturday, July 26; and Sunday, July 27 at Dublin, Ireland's Croke Park. This is the first time an artist has sold out three dates at the venue in one day. Tickets cost 65 euros or about $88 each.
10,000 people stood in line across the country to buy tickets. Some fans camped outside for days, braving downpours and biting winds.
The concerts are taking place ahead of Brooks' world tour. He last played at Croke Park in 1997.
"In 52 years of business this is the fastest selling concert Aiken Promotions have ever been involved in," added Aiken.
Brooks also sold out his recent appearance at the 100th anniversary of the Calgary Stampede. The sell out of 15,000-plus seats happened in less then a minute. He was recently inducted into the International Songwriters Hall of Fame in New York, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Brooks has sold in excess of 128 million albums and was certified by the RIAA in 2000 as the No. 1 selling solo artist in U.S. history.

Q: Blank Firebase project makes connection to unexpected public database Firebase makes a connection to an unexpected public database on a brand new project. The template of the database where it connects looks like https://s-usc1c-nss-XXX.firebaseio.com, where XXX is a 3 digit number.
Connecting to the server listed in the connection above shows an insecure public database, e.g. https://s-usc1c-nss-204.firebaseio.com/.json
Is this normal behavior?
"dependencies": {
    "@babel/runtime": "^7.2.0",
    "firebase": "^7.14.4",
    "react": "^16.6.3",
    "react-dom": "^16.6.3"
},

A: firebaser here
That connection is part of Firebase's internal routing protocol, and is how the Firebase client determines what server/cluster your database is currently hosted on.
The client caches the server/cluster name that it gets back, so you should usually not see this lookup on each connection.

A: All Realtime Database instances are "public".  That's how cloud services work that must be reachable directly by client apps running anywhere on the internet.  Without a public service, the client would have no way to make the query.
If you need to secure the database from direct client access, you will need to write security rules to determine who can read and write which locations in the database.

Q: Under what conditions will sendmail try to immediately resend a message instead of waiting for the standard requeue interval? CentOS 5.8 | Sendmail 8.14.4
I used to think that if SendMail experienced a temporary (400-class) error during delivery, it would place the message in a deferred queue (e.g. /var/spool/mqueue) and retry an hour later.  For the most part, that appears to be the case.  But every now and then, I'll notice log entries like this (email/domains renamed to protect the innocent :-) ) :
Dec 5 01:43:03 foobox-out sendmail [11078]: qBE3l7js123022: to=<user@foo.com>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=124588, relay=exbox.foo.com. [10.10.10.10], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: 421 4.3.2 The maximum number of concurrent connections has exceeded a limit, closing transmission channel

Dec 5 01:53:34 foobox-out sendmail [12763]: qBE3l7js123022: to=<user@foo.com>, delay=00:10:31, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=214588, relay=exbox.foo.com., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: 452 4.3.1 Insufficient system resources

Dec 5 02:53:35 foobox-out sendmail [23255]: qBE3l7js123022: to=<user@foo.com>, delay=01:10:32, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=relay, pri=304588, relay=exbox.foo.com. [10.10.10.10], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (<SLDFKJSDLFKJSDLFKJLKDSJLKFJDSLFKJSDLKFJSD@BOX.senderdomain.com> Queued mail for delivery)

Why did Sendmail try again just 10 minutes after the first attempt and then wait another hour before trying again?
If this is expected behavior, what scenarios will cause this faster requeue interval to occur?

A: You can read with more detail in section 29.9.99 of the 4th edition of the bat book. The bottom line is that most of the time messages that fail to get delivered often, continue to fail.
So when a message is placed in queue, sendmail calculates its priority based on RecipentFactor and ClassFactor and processes those with lowest priority first. Failed attempts get adjusted using RetryFactor and so on.
Also in your case, a 452 tells the machine to defer delivery until later. How much later depends on the value next to -q when you start sendmail .


Anders Hemre: Leif, it's great to have another opportunity to converse with you. It's been eight years since our last interview – a long time in today's world – so let's get right to it.
Japanese scientist and economy philosopher Dr. Hiroshi Tasaka once suggested that the knowledge economy is a misunderstanding – the argument being that knowledge is developing more into a free commodity than a priceworthy good. What is your take on this suggestion and – beyond research and education – where do you see the biggest returns on knowledge, if such a concept can be defined in economic terms?

Escape room reviews near Los Angeles, California.
This game has re-opened under new ownership. We hear that the new version is substantially different from the version we reviewed below.
Disrupted Decades was a nostalgic journey through the 1970s, '80s, and '90s with a heavy emphasis on pop culture. It put an unusual twist on the flow of an escape room by having each room represent a decade and build to a meta puzzle.
We wanted to love this escape room as much as It's A Doggy Dog World, but Disrupted Decades felt unfinished in comparison to Escapades LA's other game. The story felt underdeveloped and the set was underwhelming. While we truly enjoyed the puzzles, it felt light on content.
This could and should be a fantastic game. Escapades LA has a solid foundation to build on. In its current form, however, we only recommend this to puzzle lovers who want to see a new take on escape room structure and players who want a taste of nostalgia.
Someone screwed with the space-time continuum and we had to traverse the 1970s, '80s, and '90s hunting down anachronisms and setting things right.
Disrupted Decades was a 3-room game where each room represented a different decade. Each individual space had props, furniture, and in some cases, carpeting that was emblematic of the decade we were visiting.
The props were generally authentic.
None of the sets were particularly eye-catching or immersive.
Escapades LA's Disrupted Decades was a standard escape room with a low level of difficulty.
+ Escapades LA produced an interesting escape room in Disrupted Decades. They emphasized exploring the props to determine which were out of place and how they worked together to solve a larger meta puzzle for each room.
– In practice, once we got the hang of how this game worked, it felt light on content.
+ It was enjoyable to take a journey back through the nostalgic items. Some of them stretched the limits of the props to deliver interesting interactions.
+ The '80s had some high points when it came to puzzling.
– The set was subpar. It didn't go far enough to convey the time periods. Each era would have benefitted from more details. There were a lot of small props, but the sets felt too bare. A few large and tangible set pieces would go a long way.
– The story felt underdeveloped. There wasn't much of a beginning, ending, or feeling of consequence. It was just a scenario.
+ In the '90s room they had a Franklin Bookman electronic dictionary & thesaurus. I admit that this is insanely personal and nearly no one will appreciate this prop… but I used to lay in bed with a flashlight every night looking up words and synonyms, and playing word games on one of these things. Seeing one for the first time in over 20 years filled me with joy. Your mileage may vary.
For food we recommend Republic of Pie.
Book your hour with Escapades LA's Disrupted Decades, and tell them that the Room Escape Artist sent you.
Disclosure: Escapades LA comped our tickets for this game.
I was really excited to play Jumanji. It was clear that 60 Out had put a lot of effort into creating this game. I wish I could say that effort correlated directly to quality… but I can't. I'm pretty sad about it.
The Jumanji escape room was a beautiful mess filled with interesting toys and striking set pieces. Far too many puzzles were broken; the game seemed littered with the remains of removed or adapted puzzles. The character/ special ability feature was too opaque to allow for deliberate character moments. Unfortunately, the problems overshadowed a number of great puzzles and interactions.
Finally, it looked like a jungle, but it didn't feel like Jumanji. There weren't moments of overcoming deep-seated character flaws… nor were there many meaningful references back to the film (the original or the sequel).
This licensed escape room loosely interpreted the story of the recent film sequel Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle. Our group had all been sucked into a cursed jungle adventure video game.
Once we were in the video game, we each selected a character and received an ability based on that role.
Finally, we had to complete Jumanji before the game destroyed us.
Jumanji kicked off with us hanging out in our friend's bedroom. After we started the video game console and booted up Jumanji, we found ourselves in a jungle environment.
The bedroom was a fairly accurate recreation of Alex Vreeke's '90s room from an early scene of the movie.
While the jungle setting didn't specifically reference anything that I could recall in the film, it was a solid tropical jungle setting.
60 Out's Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was a standard escape room with a high level of difficulty.
One key feature was the role-based play. This created situations where only a specific player (or at least their wrist band) could complete a specific interaction.
+ There were some beautiful, eye-catching set pieces.
– An awful lot of interactions were broken, including some key moments that should have been badass. Looking around the set, it seemed riddled with ghost puzzles. This was frustrating.
+ I kind of wanted to keep the Jumanji board.
– The character superpowers (activated with the wrist bands) were clunky. It was often difficult to tell which bracelet applied to which interactions and why. It was difficult to connect the characters and powers; everything seemed abstract. This whole portion of the game felt hollow.
+ The jungle setting looked pretty good. While it wasn't perfect, wooded environments are some of the most difficult to create and 60 Out clearly put a lot into the set. I have to give them credit for this creation.
– 60 Out put a lot of emphasis on Alex's bedroom. This was a bafflingly faithful recreation of a set that received about 15 seconds of screen time in the movie.
+ There were a number of fun puzzles and interactions including a teamwork puzzle, a physical interaction, and one that wasn't particularly challenging, but was beautiful and a delight to complete.
– The finale was overflowing with potential, but it fizzled when it barely worked. I'm still not sure how it was supposed to have functioned.
– To me, the core of any Jumanji story is a group of individuals helping one another overcome their weaknesses to discover their true strengths. It's supposed to be personal, not just a jungle adventure. This was absent from 60 Out's Jumanji escape room. I could forgive this if 60 Out had nailed other big moments from the movie, but it didn't really do that either. Maybe they didn't get to see the movie before having to design the game, if that's the case, then this failure is on the studio as well.
For food, we recommend Village Idiot.
Book your hour with 60 Out's Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, and tell them that the Room Escape Artist sent you.
Not enough meat on those bones.
Play Cannibal's Den as if you were desperate to get out of it. If you think of it as a traditional escape room as we've come to understand them, it's missing a lot. If you think of it in a more literal sense, as a room you really want to escape, then it has something to offer.
I get excited when I see games that play differently or offer something new with the escape room format. With that in mind, I didn't enjoy Cannibal's Den. It was different, but I didn't trust the design.
QUEST ROOM played it loose with escape room rule and safety standards, especially early in the game. This made us uncomfortable and perpetually question how far we were supposed to push the boundaries.
Additionally, once we grokked how Cannibal's Den wanted to be played, we breezed through this game and it felt entirely too short.
I can see some players absolutely loving this game, and there were some great moments… But neither the gameplay nor the volume of content did it for me.
A fantastic late-game sequence (if you don't accidentally skip it).
We had been captured and locked up by a deranged serial killer. A technical malfunction with one of his favorite toys had delayed our execution while he attempted to get it fixed. We had to escape.
Cannibal's Den was staged within the torture/ murder dungeon of our captor. It was dim, dingy, and bloody.
QUEST ROOM does a fantastic job with their sets and Cannibal's Den was no exception. Every environment we set foot in looked great, in a gruesome sort of way.
QUEST ROOM's Cannibal's Den was an atypical escape room that put an emphasis on reacting to the situation and "surviving." Once we realized how Cannibal's Den needed to be played, we sailed through it with ease. Figuring out the play-style was the greatest challenge.
Core gameplay revolved around observing and making connections, and dexterity.
+ Cannibal's Den opened dramatically.
– The opening was uneven. The drama wasn't equally forceful from the different vantage points. Some players could experience and contribute much more than others.
+ The set of Cannibal's Den was fantastic. It was disgusting in all the right ways.
+ Cannibal's Den asked us to think situationally. It offered a different type of gameplay.
+ Our favorite moment refocused our goals. It added a twist that heightened our sense of urgency.
– It would be possible to escape Cannibal's Den without triggering this fantastic sequence.
– There wasn't a lot of content within Cannibal's Den.
– Cannibal's Den was full of red herrings.
– QUEST ROOM really loves including interactions that break the traditional rules of escape rooms. It's their thing, it seems. Cannibal's Den pushed this to a place where I didn't take an action without a hint because it didn't seem safe, correct, or respectful. This type of interaction design teaches new players the wrong lessons about escape rooms in general, especially since the interaction wasn't properly clued.
? Cannibal's Den asked us to come to a few specific conclusions that made sense within the context of the situation and take actions based on those conclusions. Some of the actions felt less than comfortable. Your mileage with this style of gameplay will vary.
– The ending took us by surprise. Cannibal's Den just kind of ended. We had a lot of time left and it seemed like there must have been other challenges in the space, but there weren't any.
Players must be comfortable starting in individual gamespaces.
Book your hour with QUEST ROOM's Cannibal's Den, and tell them that the Room Escape Artist sent you.
Office Space meets Portal, with a hint of Tiny Toons.
Testing Facility was a puzzle-focused escape room that justified the puzzling with a humorous spin. Although the gamespace was not inherently exciting and it lacked adventure, Testing Facility was a phenomenally strong puzzle game with character.
If you're in Los Angeles and you play escape rooms for the puzzles, we strongly encourage you to test yourself against Testing Facility.
We had eagerly accepted Professor Bentham's experiment and his challenge to outwit his humorously psychotic AI, PAL, and its desire to make us its best friend forever and ever.
PAL's personality could best be described as Portal's GLaDOS with the motivation of Tiny Toon's Elmyra.
The tests took place in an office-meets-lab environment complete with Despair Demotivation posters. Furniture included a table, a couple of desks, and not much else. The most eye-catching set piece was an old soda vending machine.
Most of the character for Testing Facility came from the voice of the AI, PAL.
Escape Chronicles' Testing Facility was a standard escape room with a moderate level of difficulty.
+ Testing Facility was funny. The AI taunted us throughout the escape room. It added depth and humor to the bland office setting. This was a perfect example of a game that mixed an office environment with something unexpected and turned a tired escape room theme into something entertaining.
– Humor aside, Testing Facility wasn't an exciting space to occupy. The blandness of an office didn't energize our group.
+ Escape Chronicles built a lot of puzzle play into minimal props, and in one instance, into one small item. It was impressive.
+ Escape Chronicles printed custom props for one puzzle. This detail created smooth (red herring free!) entertaining gameplay. Many lesser companies would have just made small modifications to existing materials.
+ Escape Chronicles minded the details, delivering interesting and fun puzzles.
+ We enjoyed Escape Chronicles' approach to reuse. We reused knowledge that we had accumulated over the course of gameplay.
– Testing Facility lacked an impactful finale. We would have liked to see or feel a response to besting the AI. Given the character Escape Chronicles had crafted into the experience, there was opportunity to deliver a more exciting or dramatic conclusion.
One player needs to be able to crawl.
For food we recommend Cahuenga General Store.
Book your hour with Escape Chronicles' Testing Facility, and tell them that the Room Escape Artist sent you.
Disclosure: Escape Chronicles provided media discounted tickets for this game.
Starship Desolation was an Alien-inspired adventure aboard a spaceship.
The set looked lovely and we enjoyed the progressive discovery aboard the ship. From a puzzle and gameplay standpoint, it felt light on content and needed a few tweaks to clue structure.
If you're nearby and seeking a solid space adventure, board Starship Desolation .
As members of the crew of Starship Desolation, we were exploring outer space, looking for new alien life forms… when things turned bad.
Starship Desolation looked compelling. The wall detailing, door shapes, and panel-driven design gave it a strong sci-fi, spaceship vibe.
Cyph3r Escape Experience's Starship Desolation was a standard escape room with a lower level of difficulty.
+ Starship Desolation opened dramatically. Its design walked a fine line between exciting and irritating and Cyph3r Escape Experience pulled it off.
-While the sets were generally high quality, a few places in the set felt unfinished and messy. Additionally, props didn't always fit properly into their mountings.
+ The transitions worked especially well.
+ We enjoyed one clue structure delivery mechanism that added more depth to the experience and plugged us into the story.
– It was easy to miss important clue structure if you weren't paying attention when it triggered or weren't in the right part of the ship at the appropriate moment. There was no do-over.
– We would have liked more of the clue structure to have been worked into the gamespace rather than delivered through paper or other media.
– Starship Desolation was light on puzzle content.
– Although the final set was nifty, the culminating sequence felt anticlimactic. Throughout the experience we never felt the presence of important stakes.
+ Starship Desolation looked convincingly starship-y. It was a fun environment to explore through puzzles.
There is parking to the back of the lot next to their building.
Book your hour with Cyph3r Escape Experience's Starship Desolation, and tell them that the Room Escape Artist sent you.

We weren't planning to replay Pandorus. After hearing that it was essentially a different game within the same set that we knew and loved, however, we decided to give it another shot… and we were glad that we did. The new Pandorus was a significant improvement over its predecessor.
The basic information for this game exists in our previous review. In this re-review, we address the improvements, as well as some new areas to potentially refine.
The bottom-line: Pandorus went from a good game to one of the strongest games that we've seen in 60 Out's substantial collection of games in Los Angeles.
+ We still loved the unique aesthetic of Pandorus. This time around, the game had been modified such that we always knew what was set dressing and what was an active set piece.
+ Gone were the repetitious activities from the previous game. There was one larger process puzzle, but it was brilliantly designed and didn't stick around long enough to grow old.
+ We had been a little perturbed last go around when we had unwittingly made a moral decision. 60 Out had cleared that up. Now we clearly understood our options.
– We encountered muddy audio. The various aspects of the soundscape clashed. This was particularly challenging when we received hints.
+ The tiny hint robot was adorable and strangely compelling.
– The diminutive droid's scale was off for the room; it was easy to forget about him. This was a problem because talking with the robot was integral to both the gameplay and the humor of Pandorus.
+/- 60 Out kept the best puzzle from the earlier version. We were thrilled to hang back and watch our teammates solve this one. Watching with another year's worth of experience, however, we realized that this puzzle could have benefitted from some visual feedback.
If you've already played Pandorus in an earlier version, it is now different enough that you can play it again. Bring some teammates who haven't played the earlier iteration so that they can solve the 2 or 3 puzzles that reappear.
Book your hour with 60 Out's Flight of the Pandorus, and tell them that the Room Escape Artist sent you.
Knights of the Round Table was a family-friendly adventure. Although the gameplay and the set design were uneven, the more tangible interactions delivered fun solves.
If you're looking for a solid, traditional, family-friendly puzzle game near Los Angeles, check out Knights of the Round Table.
A darkness had fallen over Camelot. We took on the roles of Knights of the Round Table to save the kingdom.
We started our quest outside the castle: a facade crafted to look like the exterior wall of a medieval fortress. There were stone walls, a wooden door, and a drawbridge over a glowing moat. On the other side was the forest, largely represented by wallpaper, some cut wood, and fake hay.
Inside the castle, the sets looked less dramatic as we explored the rooms.
LA Dragon Studios' Knights of the Round Table was a standard escape room with a moderate level of difficulty.
+ The intro video to Knights of the Round Table foreshadowed some of the more exciting set pieces in the experience. Because it was filmed in the gamespace, the video added intrigue before we entered the escape room. We were excited when we encountered these set pieces in the experience.
– The beginning sequence didn't instill energy in the group. Although we enjoyed exploring the initial set, the gameplay was too slow paced, especially as an opening.
+ LA Dragon Studios crafted some more hefty, tangible interactions that felt satisfying to engage with.
– The set design was uneven. LA Dragon Studios made some enticing details, but left other areas of the gamespace underdesigned.
– While some decor was simply decor, much of it functioned as red herrings. It was frequently hard to differentiate set dressing from puzzle components.
+ We enjoyed finding a path through one substantial, late-game puzzle. It was challenging and fun.
– Two of the main puzzles in Knights of the Round Table were brute-forceable. It was too easy to bypass much of the gameplay, either on purpose or accidentally.
– Knights of the Round Table would benefit from additional clue structure and tighter puzzle design.
+ Knights of the Round Table delivered a satisfying finale. It was an entertaining culminating action, even if it was primarily enjoyed by one player.
+ LA Dragon Studios markets Knights of the Round Table as a family-friendly adventure. From the props, to the interactions, to reveals, it delivered on that marketing. Families will find a lot to enjoy here.
+ Yes, Knights of the Round Table made some of the Monty Python jokes you'd expect.
There is a parking lot behind the building.
LA Dragon Studios is in a medical facility. So don't be baffled by that… you're in the right place.
LA Dragon Studios also has a small arcade with some classic cabinets.
Book your hour with LA Dragon Studios' Knights of the Round Table, and tell them that the Room Escape Artist sent you.

The world's first consumer-owned wind farm
This week's programme is sponsored by Ripple Energy - creating the world's first coop-owned wind farm.....
Sarah Merrick, Ripple Energy
Part of the show Sick of COVID: The Long Haulers
WIND_FARM

This week the programme is sponsored by Ripple Energy. They're doing something that's unusual, and also a first; and they want to share the opportunity with you. And with 20 years' experience in the wind power industry, Sarah Merrick is their founder and CEO. She told Chris Smith the plan...
Sarah - What Ripple does is we enable individual households to own a bit of a wind farm, and have the low-cost, clean electricity that it generates supplied to their home. Our first project is now open, it's Graig Fatha in South Wales. So we're really keen for people to be able to join the project and be part of what is the UK's very first consumer owned wind farm.
Chris - Can you tell us a bit about how this business will work, Sarah?
Sarah - Customers become a member of a co-op which owns the wind farm; and it's all very, very democratic, it's one member one vote; so you simply decide how much of the wind farm you want to own depending on how much electricity you use, then you can just sign up and join in literally a couple of minutes on our website, and you become a member of the co-op and you own your bit of the wind farm. And then we go away and build it! And then once it's operational, you get your share of the electricity that the wind farm generates supplied to your home via the grid, and then the savings that are associated with your ownership are just applied to your bill automatically each month, basically. So we take care of everything, right from gathering the thousands of people together, managing the bills of the wind farm, and then managing their relationship with our supply partners so that everyone gets savings that you apply to their bill straightaway.
Chris - How much is this going to cost to build?
Sarah - The cost of building the whole turbine is just over 4 million pounds. And then an individual household's share of that, if they wanted the wind farm to generate as much electricity as they use each year, the upfront cost is around 18-1900 pounds. And for that, they would get savings of around 25% on their electricity bill. Because the electricity is coming from the grid, you still need to pay all the grid charges; there's lots of taxes and levies as part of your electricity bill as well, you still need to pay all those bits. It's the electricity part of your electricity bill that you get the saving on. So over the 25 year lifetime of the wind farm, we estimate it's around a 25% reduction on your electricity bill each year for the 25 year lifetime.
Chris - And therefore, how many years after I've invested is it before I've effectively got my money back in saved electricity?
Sarah - We're expecting it to be around 14 years based on the government's electricity price assumptions. If electricity prices are higher than those assumptions, the payback is shorter because your savings would increase. If the price of electricity goes down, your savings reduce as well.
Chris - What happens if I move house though?
Sarah - Because it's attached to you and not your home, if you move you just phone up your supplier like you would if you moved home, and just say, "hey, I've moved," and they just then supply it to your new home. So it's really portable. It goes wherever you go, essentially.
Chris - You said that the average household investment will be about 2,000 pounds. So you must be, if you want to raise 4 million quid, you must be looking for about 2,000 subscribers.
Sarah - Yes. Just over 2000 subscribers. Because it is limited, we're expecting it to fill up by the end of August.
Chris - Is that the point of return, where you've got to be in the door by the end of August or the opportunity is going to pass?
Sarah - Exactly, yes. Once the wind farms full, there's no more of it to be bought by anyone, so people need to get in in the next three or four weeks in order to be able to benefit, and be part of the UK first consumer owned wind farm.
Chris - And when will it actually become operational? When would I start to see money flowing in to discount off my bill?
Sarah - We're expecting it to be spring next year, sort of April time. It's a relatively easy build, it's just a single turbine so it shouldn't take very long to construct. People would see savings on their bill from around April 2021 onwards.
Chris - And this is a first, isn't it? I don't think anyone has actually tried to do this with a wind turbine like this before. Why did you decide to go down this path?
Sarah - It's a world first! Having worked in the wind industry for so long, I saw that it was possible for big companies like Google and Facebook, they could own bits of a wind farm or a whole wind farm themselves; but it seemed really unfair that me as an individual consumer, I wasn't able to actually own what is now the UK's cheapest source of power direct. People want to act on climate change, and they want low-cost electricity as well. So that's why I set up Ripple to solve that for people.
Chris - And what safeguards are there so that people who do decide to invest know that their money is secure, and that the company for 25 years is going to be there, and they're going to get their money back?
Sarah - The co-op owns the wind farm, and they will do for 25 years. Ripple doesn't own the wind farm; we're the managing agent. so we just bring everything together and make it happen.
Chris - And if I decide I want to invest more than 2,000 pounds, are you taking bigger subscriptions so a person could therefore discount proportionately more of their electricity costs?
Sarah - The most that you can invest would be the equivalent amount of the wind farm that would generate your consumption plus 20%. So you're owning a bit of a wind farm to get low-cost, clean electricity that you use yourself.
Chris - So if you have now convinced listeners to the Naked Scientists that this is a good idea, what should they do?
Sarah - They can join Ripple - just go to rippleenergy.com - and you can sign up there. We're expecting it to close around the end of August, so people need to act pretty quick if they want to be part of this project.

How Much Food is Wasted in America?
9.18.17 – Back in 2015, we dove into the topic of Food Waste to learn more about how much, why, and how perfectly edible food winds up in the landfill. Studies have found that 30% – 40% of the food we produce in the United States is ultimately thrown away. But what does that mean? What does it look like? How much is that, really?
Before we dive into the dumpster, it's important to know that the information we have is not perfect. All our knowledge about food waste comes from studies which use various different methods to estimate how much food is being lost or thrown away. Not only do these different studies use different methods to measure food waste, but many studies also have different definitions of what counts as "food waste".
This past summer, The New Food Economy took a look at some of the studies we have on food waste and suggested that some estimates may be too big, and others, too small. In a recent update to their 2012 report, the NRDC also acknowledged the difficulties of gathering and verifying data.
Rather than discounting the information that we have, we need to see these as reasons to continue investigating the food we don't eat. We need more studies that measure food loss at all levels of the food chain, and more efforts to standardize our methods and language. In the meantime, we need act on what we do know about food waste. You may be as astounded by some of these numbers as we were.
According to a 2014 EPA study, America throws away more than 38 million tons of food every year. That's the weight of 104 Empire State Buildings, with a bit to spare. Or, to put it another way, that single year's worth of food waste would be enough to balance a scale with of all the Blue Whales left in the world, multiplied by 10, stacked up on the other side.
In his book "American Wasteland," activist and author Jonathan Bloom estimated that the United States could fill a college stadium with the amount of food it wastes … in a day. Imagine trying to fit 365 Rose Bowls into Pasadena, or any city for that matter, to hold a year's worth of American food waste.
Food waste isn't just big and heavy. It's also very expensive. $165 billion / year expensive (Update: the more recent NRDC report placed this at $218 billion / year). For context, that's almost as much as the State of California's entire budget last year.
A very recent study attempted to measure food waste not in weight or dollars, but in nutrients. Writing in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the authors estimated that the amount of food thrown away in the United States in 2012 would have been enough to feed 190 million adults every day that year. They went further, looking at the different vitamins and minerals lost with wasted food, and argued that the nutrition lost could have ensured that all women in America could get their Recommended Dietary Allowances of Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Calcium, Magnesium, Iron, and Fiber.
Last but certainly not least, we can look to measure food waste by its footprint and environmental impact. It takes a huge amount of resources (in addition to money) to grow and produce food, and is near impossible to recover those inputs once the food winds up in the landfill. Farmers and producers use around 25% of all of America's fresh water just to produce the food that nobody eats.
Finally, when we throw away food, the landfill is not the end of the story. Organic waste breaks down at the dump, releasing methane gas, a potent greenhouse gas. The United Nations Food & Agriculture Organization puts the total carbon footprint of food wastage around 4.4 GtCO2: that's 4.4 gigatonnes (4.4 billion tons) of carbon dioxide. How much is that exactly? It's more greenhouse gas than any one country, except for the U.S. and China, emits. That's right: our collective global food waste is contributing more to climate change than nearly every country in the world.
We hope that, by exploring different ways to think about the amount of food that we throw away in the United States, we can really start to see how literally massive this issue is. This is only the beginning, but it's important to check how big the pool is before you dive in.
I am so surprised that how expensive food wastes are!! And also I am very surprised that Japan's food wastes are much more than a big country like Brazil? A tiny country Japan wastes many many food wastes and contributes a lot of green house gases! But this phenomenon is lead by Free market and capitalism so… When we try to reduce food wastes… a food price…. rises our massive food wastes are refection of our food prices.
Although your article was somewhat interesting, it really only showed a few different measurements of the food being wasted. I did not find it helpful regarding how I could help reduce food waste.
What is really needed is a study of where the food is wasted. That is: 1) how much is lost during harvesting or to insects, disease and animals before harvesting. 2) How much is lost during transport to market and at the manufacturing/processing sites. 3) How much is lost when it is thrown away by stores due to expiration (rotting, being out of date, etc.); 4) How much is lost when restaurants throw away food that went unsold; and 5) How much is lost in consumers' households when it is thrown away for whatever reason.
I'll keep searching the net for answers. Until these things are known, it will be impossible to adequately and effectively deal with the problem.
This figures are really mindlowing and wondering if the Government can give some ideas and incentives to big restaurants,to waste the less possible foods.
This topic is of much interest currently with the actual government trying to put restrictions in the the SNAP Program,making it worse in adding processed food.
will organic farming help reducing food waste?
I strongly believe that food should be free especially fruits and veggies which would cut down food waste and help elimnate many issues we are experiencing with food and hunger. Each country's government should pay farmers to maintain farms and distribute food to stores which from that point it is availble to everyone. There are millions of people each year who die from toxic sprays and chemicals being added to food to perserve food and keep insect away. Food is necessary to live so why not work as humanity to make sure we get quality food to all people on the planet without charging for many of the fruits and veggies out there. Farmers can enjoy farming the correct way and pay attention to food distribution and harmful chemicals that hurt us all. There is such a waste of food, there are hungry people everywhere and people dying from exposure to chemicals being added or sprayed to food. There is no balance and we are making it worse with the greed of many people out there charging astronomical prices for the food because it has to be packaged and sit on shelves. Something needs to change. We could cure many ailments and eliminate many deaths as well as keep people alive with healthy food which would be circulated through out communities much more often and used quicker I know there are people who may think this sounds nuts but it's not. We are the cause of our own grief. Humanity doesn't think anymore becaused everyone is wrapped up in making money from everything whether it is safe or not. Everything is packaged, marketed, and designed to rob humanity. People need quit being greedy and use what they need thinking about others. Start thinking about it. Raw food should be free to all. Cooked or prepared food is something people can pay to have it when they want it from restuarants or stores. We need to use common sense in saving this planet, people, animals, etc. Our own greed is destroying us causing hunger worldwide, diseases, and many more problems. It doesn't make sense when there are hungry children all over the world yet tons and tons of food being throwed away each day. Humanity needs to work for humanity now more than ever to save lives making healther humans, children, animals, etc. Circulate the food much more and solve hunger and not as much worry about pesticides and insect getting to crops. If it sits on shelves too long it goes bad. If it gets sprayed with junk it causes toxic illnesses and birth defects. There is no balance. People need to think, think, think, and quit this greedy business with food by charging crazy prices for healthy food. We all need it and without it there is sickness, hunger, and many other issues.
how does Government policies promote food waste?
I am writing a research paper on Food Waste in America. Is there a specific author/editor of this article?
This is shocking!! It is within Every American's control to reduce food waste. Use up the leftovers. Use for another meal with a salad or combine in another dish. The landfill created, the Greenhouse Gases emitted, the water use to grow, the fuel and labor used to plant and harvest – All wasted!!!!
Farmers and producers use around 25% of all of America's fresh water just to produce the food that nobody eats. A very recent study attempted to measure food waste not in weight or dollars, but in nutrients. Writing in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the authors estimated that the amount of food thrown away in the United States in 2012 would have been enough to feed 190 million adults every day that year. They went further, looking at the different vitamins and minerals lost with wasted food, and argued that the nutrition lost could have ensured that all women in America could get their Recommended Dietary Allowances of Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Calcium, Magnesium, Iron, and Fiber.
I suggest that not good looking foods should be used for farm made applesauce and other foods that us these.
I think the biggest contributor to food waste is due to the liability an institution incurs if it gives away unused food and someone gets sick. I know that my dad used to bring home expired bread from the sore he worked at, not allowed anymore. My son is in the army and he told me that the uneaten food at the cafeteria goes into a dumpster each day, and its a lot. To much labor to try and save it and to much liability to give it away. At food pantries when a canned item reaches its "best by date" its disposed off. We all know that that food is safe way beyond that "best by date".
Someone prior to this mentioned capitalism, near me there are 2 Krogers and a Meyers within 1 mile of each other. With so much food available how can there not be waste.
THIS IS ASTONISHING WE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF OURSELVES.

This cute angel rabbit plays on a musical note. The cute rabbit, MiMiPico, looks a little adult-like with the dark blue and gray. It is the image of a "piano lesson."
These rabbit angels love music. They have fun passing time by singing, performing, and dancing. They play various musical instruments!
A friend of MiMiPico. "Pianissimo" is a music term meaning "very soft." The name is fitting for this little, cute mouse fairy.
Mimi (耳) means "ear" or "ears" in Japanese. The "mimi" used here could be referring to ears, since this character is about music, or perhaps it could just be the European girls name. "Pico" could be derived from the Italian word "piccolo," meaning "small."

Singapore Football
Young Lions coach Selvaraj steps down
V. Selvaraj has resigned as Young Lions coach for 'family reasons'. TNP FILE PHOTO
The Football Association of Singapore (FAS) last night announced the resignation of Garena Young Lions head coach V. Selvaraj, after just five months in the role.
In a media release, the FAS said the former Singapore international, 46, was stepping down due to "family reasons".
National Under-22 coach Richard Tardy will take over the reins at the S.League side until a permanent replacement is found.
In a statement, Selvaraj said: "It has been an honour to be part of the FAS setup and I greatly appreciate the various opportunities given to me, including the appointment as head coach of the GYL - a very young but talented team.
He added: "As much as I really enjoy working with the FAS management, technical colleagues... and other backroom staff, as well as this team of young boys, I have decided, after much consideration, to step down due to family reasons."
The GYL are rooted to the bottom of the S.League table. They picked up their first point of the season following a goalless draw with Brunei DPMM last Saturday.
Players' extra training among reasons for Albirex dominance
Gombak, Tanjong Pagar apply to rejoin S.League in 2019
DPMM release Kean and imports
Albirex hungry for more after defending S.League title
Tardy, who will lead the U-22s at August's SEA Games in Kuala Lumpur, said: "We are saddened by Selvaraj's decision to step down from his position but we respect his decision - especially in view of his reasons.
"He has been a good colleague, both on and off the field, and I personally hope that he will make a return to the coaching fraternity soon."
Selvaraj had honed his coaching career with S.League giants Warriors FC, where he coached their youth teams, Prime League side and then S.League squad over a period of eight years.
He joined the FAS in 2014 and was coach of the national U-16, and then U-15 team. He was the GYL assistant coach last year, before becoming head coach this year.

At a recent meeting with Grange Town Councillors, myself and the County Council Traffic Engineer for our area discussed the parking and traffic issues residents have raised over the past few months.
The Engineer took on board all comments and did mention that some new and renewed lines and signs would be implemented shortly in the Town Centre.
After much discussion at my suggestion it was agreed that the County would put out speed monitoring tubes around the Town Centre in the Spring. This would enable us all to ascertain the speeds on the roads at the sites we all agreed to and then look at any problem areas.
Cumbria Trading Standards have received reports of cold callers operating in the Grange over Sands area, selling household items door to door.
Finally as we are now into another new year I would just like to thank everyone in my Division for their community support and involvement This includes the villages of Lindale, High and Low Newton, the large Parish of Cartmel Fell and Grange-over-Sands.
Wishing everyone a prosperous and happy new year.

Q: How to build a CNN to correctly classify the edges of a quadrilateral? I am trying to implement a CNN to correctly detect the edges of a quadrilateral
in a 322x322 binary image i.e. a white quadrilateral on a black background image e.g.

the network output is designed to represent x and y sandwiched together so for any given
image from the dataset, four(4) corresponding x and y neuron pairs should be fired/excited so that
my labels for the training is a one-hot-label encoding(multi-class classification) for each xy pair of edges for the quardilateral
e.g.say my image is 10x10 if the first quad has the following edges(x,y) where possible (x,y)-values are from [0-9]
 => (1,2) (3,8) (4,3) (5,7)

Here is it's graphical representation

Is there anything wrong with my configuration or rather what do you think I am doing wrong. The network doesn't learn anything from the dataset, the predictions  are all uniform and all lesser than 0.1 .
How can I configure the network correctly to give the right predictions?

NASA experiments suggest problems lie ahead for astronauts during Mars mission5 min read
By definition, astronauts who embark on the first crewed mission to Mars will encounter a combination of challenges and risks that humans have never experienced before, including years of reduced gravity and exposure to the hard radiation environment of deep space.
Yet, until recently, scientists have had little to say about another serious challenge that could emerge during such an expedition – the risk that astronauts pose to each other when their ability to work together breaks down far from home and they have limited support from Earth to resolve a crisis.
Scientists say the goal of the research is to develop systems that can detect subtle signs of tension and help redirect teams of astronauts that are heading for problems before group cohesion breaks down and performance is impaired.
BILL STAFFORD /NASA/JOHNSON SPACE CENTRE
Now, controlled experiments with small groups of people kept in isolation together for weeks or months at a time, as well as studies of teams working in remote locations such as the Antarctic are beginning to shed light on what kind of issue and behaviour patterns participants and mission managers should expect to see at various stages of an expedition to Mars.
"Like weather forecasting, we're not just describing what is happening … we are predicting what is happening," said Noshir Contractor, a professor of behavioural science at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill. "Our computer models are geared to see what we can do to preempt a potential team issue."
Dr. Contractor is among the researchers working with the Human Exploration Research Analog (HERA) project housed at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. Together with colleagues, he presented some of his findings on Sunday at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington.
The HERA project, which began in 2014, involves crews of four people living together in a close, isolated habitat for up to 45 days at a stretch. During that time, communications with the outside work can be progressively delayed for up to five minutes in order to simulate what future Mars explorers will face as they are carried ever farther from home.
In reality, a Mars mission will require a crew to spend a minimum of three years together with no possibility of an early exit because the journey will be timed to when Earth and Mars are favourably positioned for an interplanetary voyage. In the middle of the mission, the two-way travel time for radio signals to and from Earth will grow to more than 40 minutes. Under such conditions, astronauts will have to depend on their crewmates to a greater extent than on any previous human space mission.
Leslie DeChurch, a psychologist with the project who is also based at Northwestern, said enough people have gone through the HERA experiment to make good predictions about what could happen in deep space. Among them is the recognition that a team is often most vulnerable during the third quarter of a mission – regardless of how long the mission lasts. In the context of a Mars mission, this period would encompass part of the return journey, when the novelty of the experience has worn off but there's still a long way to go.
"That's when people start to feel like, 'I don't want to play anymore,'" she said.
At such times, the ability of crewmembers to combine their expertise and work together to solve problems declines measurably. The results seem largely independent of gender. While HERA has run the experiment with one all-male and one all-female team, both the best and worst performing teams have been those made up of men and women, Dr. DeChurch said.
The HERA results are mirrored in even longer duration simulated missions conducted at a remote high altitude facility called the Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation (HI-SEAS) operated by the University of Hawaii atop Mauna Loa. Last year, what was to be an eight-month simulation for a six-person crew came to an abrupt end when a crewmember was injured by an electric shock. But previous versions of the experiment have provided a wealth of data on what can go wrong when a small group of people must learn to get along to accomplish a shared goal under stress.
Steve Kozlowski, an organizational psychologist at Michigan State University who is working with HI-SEAS, said every run of the experiment that has exceeded six months has experienced a fracturing of team cohesion. The disengagement generally begins with a couple of crew members and then spreads to the entire group by the end of the mission.
"There's cause for concern," in terms of what might happen to a crew sent to Mars, Dr. Kozlowski said.
Jeffrey Johnson, an anthropologist at the University of Florida in Gainesville, studies the equivalent effects on team dynamics at the South Pole research station and other Antarctic facilities. He said a key element that has enabled some teams to resist such fracturing is the presence of a well-loved team member with a strong sense of humour that can diffuse tension and serve as the glue that binds a team together.
Dr. Contractor added that, collectively, the new findings suggest the way NASA initially selected astronauts – as famously portrayed in the 1979 book The Right Stuff as an all-male cadre of square-jawed, stoic fighter pilots – was not a recipe for future missions beyond the Moon.
"Is the right stuff still the right stuff for a team that would go to Mars?" Dr. Contractor said. "I think we're pretty confident that it is not."
