 Invention relates to a voltage transformer and a rectifier meant for power supply for LED lamps wherein the transformer comprises a three-phase primary winding and at least two three-phase secondary windings, wherein the outputs of the mentioned secondary windings are connected to rectifiers.
 LED lamps are becoming more common. One known disadvantage is the fact that LED lamps can cause electromagnetic disturbances. The reason for these disturbances is mostly the power source of the LED lamp which power source is nowadays nearly always a step down switching power supply. The power source in question breaks fast mains voltage (about 320-340V) which is rectified with a diode bridge and filtered with capacitors mostly at the frequency of 50 kHz-500 kHz. This causes a strong electromagnetic radiation to the environment which radiation typically disturbs the listening of radio and watching of TV programmes. In the worst cases the power sources disturb even each other's functioning. In addition to this the input current and the input voltage have various phases in the power source in question which causes unpaired harmonic waves to the electrical network which harmonic waves disturb the functioning of other devices that are connected to the electrical network.
 In order to remove the above mentioned disadvantages a new transformer meant for power feed of LED lamps has been developed with which transformer the disturbances caused by the known transformers and voltage variations can be avoided. It is characteristic of the transformer according to the invention that secondary windings are divided for several primary windings with various phases and are connected with various connections between the outputs of the secondary windings in order to create the desired phase differences or the secondary windings have each their own primary winding in which case the connections between the outputs of the secondary windings have a characteristic, desired phase difference.
 The power source according to the invention which is suitable for LED illumination can be realized with a help of a 12-pulse transformer which is for example D0/y11n and D0/d0 (400V/50V) being wound around the same core. The primary winding is connected to a delta (D0). The phase difference between the star (yn11) and delta (d0) connections being located in the secondary winding is 30 degrees. When both these are rectified with a conventional 3-phase rectification and the outputs are connected in series or in parallel, a 12-pulse rectified output can be achieved in which output the frequency of the ripple (disturbance voltage) of the output voltage is 600 Hz. For example the ripple voltage of the output voltage of the 12-pulse transformer, which feeds 50V and 50 A, is approximately 2V. This kind of voltage is very suitable for controlling LED lamps even without capacitors that equalize the voltage.
 Additionally in the rectification process in the secondary windings the harmonic waves 3, 5, 7 and 9 of the forepart, which are created in the load situation and which cause most disturbance, are summed to be zero when there is a 30 degree phase difference between the secondary windings.
 In a corresponding way 18- and 24-pulse transformers can be realized by adding secondary windings and by adjusting the phase difference of the secondary windings. There are three separate secondary windings in the 18-pulse transformer the mutual phase difference of which secondary windings is 20 degrees and there are four secondary windings in the 24-pulse transformer the mutual phase difference of which secondary windings is 15 degrees. The rectified voltages and the summing of their output voltages are realized in the same way as in the 12-pulse transformer.
 Advantages: cost-effectiveness and no disturbances. Does not cause disturbances into the feeding electrical network and does not cause electromagnetic disturbance radiation to the environment. Contains very little amount of components which have a simple structure and are durable, in other words MTBF is naturally very long.
 FIG. 1 shows schematically A 12-pulse transformer.
 FIGS. 2A-C show schematically the phase vectors as a vector diagram of the 12-, 18- and 24-pulse transformers.
 FIGS. 3A-C show the envelopes of the secondary windings of the 12-, 18- and 24-pulse transformers.
 In the FIG. 1 the incoming phases L1, L2 and L3 are connected to the delta (D0) in the primary winding of the transformer. The input voltage is 400V AC. The first secondary winding 1 is connected to the star yn11 and the output voltage is 40.6 VAC. The second secondary winding 2 is connected to the delta d0 and the output voltage is also 40.6 V AC.
 The output voltages 1U, 1V and 1W of the first secondary winding 1 are directed to the rectifier B1 the rectified output voltage of which rectifier is 57.5 V DC. The output voltages 2U, 2V and 2W of the second secondary winding 2 are directed to the rectifier B2 the rectified output voltage of which rectifier is also 57.5 DC.
 The outputs of the bridge rectifiers B1 and B2 can be connected either in parallel or in series. In the FIG. 1 the outputs are connected in series in which case the summed voltage will be 115 V DC which summed voltage contains a disturbance voltage (ripple) that is approximately 2V at the frequency of 600 Hz. In this connection the voltage doubles itself and the current stays the same. In the presentation of the FIG. 1 a 12-pulse transformer is shown.
 If the outputs of the rectifiers B1 and B2 are connected in parallel, one gets a power source the output voltage of which power source is 63V DC and the amplitude of the ripple voltage is 2V at the frequency of 600 Hz. In this connection the voltage stays the same and the current doubles itself.
 The FIG. 2A shows a vector diagram of the 12-pulse transformer which diagram shows the phase differences of the voltages coming from the secondary windings 1 and 2 of the FIG. 1 and the vectors of various phases. In the figure FIG. 3A rectified sinusoidal envelopes of various secondary windings and phases of the same 12-pulse transformer are shown.
 In the figures FIG. 2B and FIG. 3B a corresponding diagram and an envelope of the 18-pulse transformer are shown the frequency of the output and the ripple voltage of which pulse transformer is 900 Hz. The amplitude of the disturbance has the class 1.5V.
 In the figures FIG. 2C and FIG. 3C the same diagram and the envelope of the 24-pulse transformer are shown the frequency of the output and the ripple voltage of which pulse transformer is 1200 Hz. The amplitude of the disturbance has the class 1 V.
 The more pulses the transformer creates, the greater the frequency of the ripple voltage is and at the same time the amplitude of the ripple voltage reduces. Both improve the features of the pulse transformer as a power source of LED illumination.
 The primary winding of the transformer can be connected either to the delta or to the star. The secondary windings for their part can be partly connected to the delta and partly to the star. It is characteristic of the invention that when one wants to have a transformer that creates more than 12 pulses that each secondary winding is divided for several primary windings, most advantageously for two in such a way that one achieves equidistant phase differences for the rectified pulses that are created in the connection.

He meets and quarrels with three men, Athos (Reed), Porthos (Finlay), and Aramis (Chamberlain), each of whom challenges him to a duel. D'Artagnan finds out they are Musketeers and is invited to join them in their efforts to oppose Cardinal Richelieu (Heston), who wishes to increase his already considerable power over King Louis XIII (Cassel). D'Artagnan must also juggle affairs with the charming Constance Bonacieux (Welch) and the passionate Lady De Winter (Dunaway), a secret agent for the Cardinal.
Comment: A joie-de-vivre permeates every frame of Lester's definitive adaptation of Alexandre Dumas' classic adventure novel. This represents the first half of the story with the second following a year later. The result is a supremely entertaining swashbuckler filled with great sword fights, delicious humour, authentic production design and costumes. The whole cast enter into the spirit of the production with note-perfect performances, whilst Lester's spirited direction and Watkin's sumptuous cinematography make for a visual delight. York, Reed, Chamberlain and Finally are well cast as the Musketeers whilst Welch demonstrates a gift for comedy as York's love interest. Heston is obviously enjoying himself as the scheming Cardinal Richelieu and Dunaway shows promise of what she would go on to deliver in the follow-up.
Notes: Lester shot the film in conjunction with its sequel, THE FOUR MUSKETEERS (1974). Originally intended as a single film, the split prompted a lawsuit from the cast demanding payment for both films.
Film Review – THE CASE OF THE MUKKINESE BATTLE-HORN (1956)
Case of the Mukkinese Battle-Horn, The (1956, UK, B&W, 29m) ∗∗∗½ d. Joseph Sterling; w. Harry Booth, Jon Penington, Larry Stephens, Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers; ph. Gerald Gibbs; m. Edwin Astley. Cast: Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan, Dick Emery, Pamela Thomas, Bill Hepper, Wally Thomas. A pair of detectives from Scotland Yard are assigned to look into the disappearance of the Mukkinese Battle Horn, a ninth-century artefact, from the Metropolitan Museum. Engagingly silly comedy with some genuinely funny gags amongst the misfires. This short is a good example of the free-spirited and surreal approach to comedy the Goons adopted in the 1950s. Emery works well with Milligan and Sellers, who also bring in some of their well-known characters from their ground-breaking radio show. Emery replaced Harry Secombe, who was too expensive for the film's low budget. [U]

If you're a director, actor or playwright, Director's Cut Theatre Company are on the look out for new blood (see below for latest call).
They're utterly professional, command healthy audiences and are a pleasure to work with, as I discovered when my 10 minute play, Pig in a Blanket, was performed at The Pleasance Theatre, Islington, earlier this year. It was part of a showcase of nine new plays – No U-Turn! – based around the theme of people trapped in traffic. Ironic, as it turns out, because on performance night, north London was plunged into havoc by engineering works and a defunct Picadilly Line. Despite this, more than a hundred people managed to get through to see the show.
Artistic Director (Heather Ward) and Dramaturg (Jessica Mayne) selected plays by Claire Booker, Mitch Day, Clare Knights, Callum McGowan, Michael Pearcy, Nikki Racklin, Julian Ross Davison, Julian Warren and James Withey from nearly 200 submitted to a very specific brief. We had to create up to four characters stuck in traffic, unable to leave their cars, with a specific place they were heading to. At the end of each play, the traffic had to move on, yet we weren't allowed to reveal what had caused the jam.
A total of 16 actors and 9 directors set to work turning our words into theatre, including specially created choreography to link each of the nine plays. A big thank you to Rosie Ward and Lauren Orrock for their finely crafted performances as 'Rat' and Ellie (animal rights activists with a nasty secret in the boot) in Pig in a Blanket. I had great fun at the first rehearsal watching them go through improvisation exercises with co-directors Kieran Rogers and Peter Gould, including revisiting Rat and Ellie's childhood haunts and a pretty hard-nosed police interrogation.
The next showcase Drafts is coming up on 29th May at Southwark Playhouse for which writers' submissions have just opened. They'll be casting next month.
Twelve actors, ten playwrights, one great concept!
Director's Cut pulled off an adventurous evening of acting and writing talent on Tuesday, with its 'Make The Cut' slam at London's prestigious St James Theatre.
It's always a privilege to have a play performed by up and coming young actors. This time, not one, but two, got to interpret the role of Kips in my play 'Sperm Vampire' along with nine other monologues, also performed by more than one actor.
The monologues were selected from among hundreds submitted to the company. Each play was performed twice, by two different actors. Each actor got to learn three different monologues. The first round comprised all 12 actors going head to head in pairs, performing six of the shortlisted plays. The audience then got to vote who went forward. The six winning actors then went head to head in three groups of pairs, performing a new monologue. The final round saw three actors performing the final monologue.
Simon Desborough and Harry Boyd both gave sterling performances as Kips in 'Sperm Vampire' by Claire Booker. A big thank you and congratulations to them both for their excellent interpretations.
Congratulations also to all the short-listed writers, the other ten actors and mazeltoff to the ultimate winners, actor Sukh Kaur Ojla and writer Tom Ratcliffe.

HomeHindu Code BillsStop implementing Uniform Civil Code on Indians
The Law commission of India is seeking public opinion on Uniform Civil Code.
Link: http://lawcommissionofindia.nic.in/questionnaire.pdf
It is time Indians wake up and strongly respond with their disapproval for the same. Uniform Civil Code aspires to kill the diversity of India by imposing Uniform way of Life infringing upon the freedom of religion of an Individual as well as the collective rights of people to associate and share a common way of life under what ever umbrella they may want.
What the Union Government shall rather do is to set up a body where any set of people shall register their shared code of life, live and settle disputes in accordance to that among themselves. This is how every Indigenous Peoples of India have all along been living and functioning thoughout its history. And its the most democratic way of letting people live their own way of life.
Off late such rights have also been ratified by United nations with its declartion on the rights of Indigenous Peoples: http://www.un.org/esa/socdev/unpfii/documents/DRIPS_en.pdf
It is time that Indian consitution is rather amended if needed in this direction giving back its peoples their right to determine their life and arrive at their own solutions to their problems than to impose what the Government thinks as solutions, through Uniform Civil Code.
Even United States that has the history of thrashing the life and aspirations of its own Indigenous Peoples, today has recognized close to 572 Indigenous Peoples and has given them the oppurtunity to enact their own civil consitution and live and settle disputes in accordance to that, which India shall try to emulate.
Constitutions of Indigenous Peoples of United States could be found from: http://www.narf.org/nill/triballaw/index.html
In days to come Sarvadharma, requests everyone to respond against Uniform Civil Code to the Law Commission's request and we would also be writing to Law commision with our strong objection to any attempt to force upon Indians who are naturally diverse and united a Uniform way of Life.
We should also insist that all current personal Laws, Hindu Code Bills, Muslim Personal Law etc., that are already ruining the society be annulled and let people to re-organize themselves.
We will organize a gathering too in this regard. We request everyone who receives this notification share it widely through all possible medias and create awareness that their freedom to define their own way of life is at stake.

Average UK rents drop for the first time in six years
The average UK rents drop for the first time since 2017 during the first quarter of 2018, according to data from The Deposit Protection Service (The DPS).
The latest version of its Rent Index – based on figures from millions of properties across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland over the past decade – found the average UK monthly rent in Q1 2018 was £772, down 0.54% from Q4 2017 when monthly rents were £776.
The DPS also said that the UK may experience its first annual rental decrease since Q4 2009 if rents remain unchanged or there is another decline in the second quarter of 2018.
Julian Foster, managing director at The DPS, said this drop could represent the beginning of a 'substantial development for the housing sector' and an indicator for understanding the wider economy.
"Rent growth began to slow in summer 2016, and the slip into negative figures suggests that there is a genuine long-term issue affecting the private rented sector," she added.
"The UK-wide decrease implies that there is more at play than a short-term or local correction to excessive prices, and a similar reduction in Q2 could represent the first annual decrease in rents since 2009."
Regionally, Northern Ireland saw the biggest percentage decrease overall, with average rents falling from £544 to £527 (down 3.14%), replacing the North East as the most affordable UK region to rent property.
Meanwhile, London experienced a 1.39% drop in average rent, from £1,325 to £1,307 – the largest fall in value of any UK region and the second consecutive decrease for the capital on a quarterly basis.
Only four UK regions saw a rise in average rent: the South East (£870 to £879), the East Midlands (£599 to £602), the North West (£594 to £595) and Wales (£573 to £594).
What's more, all property types became cheaper to rent on average, with flats experiencing the biggest quarterly decrease of 1.20%, from £796 to £786.

Content marketing is one of the fastest growing sectors and the focus of most organisations serious about their online presence. It taps into new behaviour, primarily driven by the Internet, where people are actively searching information relevant to their needs.
Consumers have simply shut their eyes and closed their ears to traditional forms of advertising. They own recording devices that skip through television commercials, often ignore adverts in magazines and newspapers, and easily surf away from banner ads, popups and other forms of online promotions.
Consequently, businesses are seeing less return from their investment in traditional forms of advertising. Today, they are deploying new and more sophisticated strategies to get the word out there.
So, perhaps it comes as no surprise that content marketing has been adopted by some of the most powerful and successful global corporations including Coca-Cola, Microsoft, American Express, Procter & Gamble, and Cisco Systems. All are changing the way they communicate by focusing on content.
Walter Frye, Director of Entertainment Marketing & Sponsorships at American Express. (Forbes, November 2012).
Mint.com is a personal finance website that launched in 2006. It faced a lot of competition from other start-ups and established companies. Within three years it was a market leader and sold to Intuit for $170 million. Content marketing was a big part of its operation and success.
Mint's blog 'MintLife' has a full-time editorial staff, and a pool of freelance contributors. By consistently producing quality articles and posts, readers in its online communities began to view Mint as a trustworthy and reliable source of information and shared the content to their networks. These users became customers who advocated Mint amongst their friends, families and colleagues.
Content marketing is on the rise as more brands embrace it as a key marketing strategy. In 2013 B2B Content Marketing Benchmarks, Budgets and Trends, a report by the Content Marketing Institute, nine out of ten business to business marketers are using content marketing, regardless of their industry or company size. And more than 50% said they will be increasing their content marketing spend in the next 12 months.
Nine out of ten business to business marketers are using content marketing, regardless of their industry or company size. And more than 50% said they will be increasing their content marketing spend in the next 12 months.
Content marketing is the creation, publishing and promotion of custom content. It is based on the notion of delivering high quality, relevant information to prospects and clients to ultimately influence their behaviour. This is in contrast to traditional marketing methods that aim to raise awareness by interrupting customers (through TV, radio and magazine adverts).
The content has to be unique, stimulating and engaging and help people solve their problems and answers their questions. Instead of pitching your products and services at customers, you consistently create and deliver content that makes the buyer more informed.
In the not too distant past it used to be the companies with the biggest advertising budgets won. But nowadays, money is irrelevant. Whoever is creating the best content, and generating the most conversations has the best chance of connecting with target audiences.
The bottom line is that content marketing is about focusing on what customers want, and meeting them on their terms.
Search engines rule the roost when it comes to how we look for information on the web. Billions of searches take place every single day, and Google, Bing and others are becoming more sophisticated in delivering what their users really want. And that is good and accurate information.
"First and foremost we care about trying to get the stuff that people will really like – the good, the compelling content – in front of them." Matt Cutts, Google.
The phrase 'content is king' has never been more critical. There is so much noise out there on the Internet, but it's only the sites that offer good and relevant information that are going to be ranked highly. Search engines want to provide their public with the best user experience.
Websites have a better chance of being seen if they are providing good quality content on a consistent basis that is optimized and user-friendly.
Whilst it is possible to go it alone, many brands are seeking out content marketing services. The advantages of working with specialists are that they provide editorial expertise, creative writing across multiple genres, thorough understanding of SEO and bespoke services.
Content marketing allows companies to engage directly with their audience rather than going through a third party media channel. To avoid losing ground in today's switched on digital world brands must develop content capabilities to build engagement, trust and connections with a target audience. The potential impact on business is significant and powerful.


The fall garden wouldn't be complete without a display of garden mums. These plants have a profuse number of blooms with a wide variety of flower forms and plant sizes that extend well into the fall season. Flower colors come in white, yellow, bronze, purple, red, and pink. With such a range of choices it is easy to see why mums are such a popular fall plant. When selecting your mums, make sure you have the garden variety as florist mums are not hardy enough to survive our winter weather. Even garden mums need some extra care to ensure their return each year.
Mums are a very shallow rooted plant. The crown of the plant will become bushy and full. If the plant has sufficient winter protection it will send out smaller side plants which helps make the mum plant larger with each successive growing season. After a few years you might notice that the crown of the plant will seem to thin out. This is usually a sign that the plant needs to be divided. This should be done in the spring to allow the plant to set roots and get re- established. Liberal amounts of compost, rotted manure, or organic matter should be worked into the ground, as mums grow best in a rich loamy soil. They are heavy feeders, so a spring application of a 10-10-10 fertilizer is also a good idea. It is also beneficial to provide mulch around the base of the plant which will help retain soil moisture and keep the roots cool.
Mums will provide their best show of color and blooms when planted in a sunny area. Spring planted mums should have their flower buds removed if there are any on the plant when purchased. This allows the plant to put more energy into establishing its root system. As this newly planted mum continues to grow throughout the summer months it will branch out to form a fuller plant with more blooms. It is also recommended to pinch back new and established mums early in the season. This will help ensure a bushier plant with more blooms. Pinching back should cease after the first week of July otherwise bud formation may be delayed enough to prevent sufficient flowering. Bud formation and flowering is dependant on lengthening night hours that come with the change of seasons. Thus mums should not be planted near outside night lights, as this may delay the bloom time or in some cases prevent the plant from blooming at all.
Winter protection is needed to help this plant survive. When the ground has frozen to a depth of 2 inches, a thick layer of mulch should be put over the plant. I usually do this around Thanksgiving. A 6 to 8 inch layer of clean straw, leaves or pine needles is suggested. Christmas tree branches can also be put over this mulch for added protection. Make sure the mulch isn't removed too early in the spring as this may make the plant more susceptible to repeated frost heave which can lead to its demise. On the other hand, you don't want to leave the mulch on too long, which can promote crown rot. A suggestion would be to start removing some of the pine branches in early April, but don't be in a hurry to take off the other mulch until you are sure there is no further danger of a hard freeze.

In 2004, an archaeologist has uncovered the fossils of humans together with cats in Cyprus. The fossils of the cats were carbon-dated to be 4000 years or more and it was thus determined that the oldest example of domesticated cats can be found in Cyprus. The cats were suggested to be descendants of Egyptian cats that were brought to Cyprus and were later developed in the mountainous regions. Due to the harsh environment of the mountainous regions, the cats have developed a strong and large body. The cats were later known as the Aphrodite and despite the natural development into a pure breed; they are still not recognized as a formal breed under any cat registries. Another type of unregistered purebred cat in Cyprus is called St Helena. This breed is smaller in size and has larger eyes.
This is a medium to large sized cat that usually weighs 15 pounds or more. It possesses a body that is muscular and strong. Muscular strength is especially displayed at the hips and shoulders. The body is however not of a cobby type and disposes an elegant stance due in part to the long back and neck. It has equally strong legs with the hind legs appearing longer than the front legs, and they extend into firm rounded paws. Complementing the body is a medium to long tail that tapers gradually into a fairly rounded tip.
Cyprus Aphrodite has a triangular head with a straight cheek line. Atop the head is a pair of medium sized ears that are set upright. They are wide at the base and taper to a slightly rounded tip, making them appear to be an inverted open 'v'. Eyes of Cyprus Aphrodite are almond/olive in shape and are set at an oblique angle. The eye colors should match the coat color. Viewed in profile, the muzzle and nose appear relatively long with a slight break between the eyes.
This cat wears a layer of soft woolly coat that is of medium length in winter. In summer, the coat will shed and there will be a minimal amount of undercoat. All colors and patterns are accepted with the exception of pointed and mink.
Cyprus Aphrodite is a cat with a calm temperament. Its adaptable nature makes it an ideal pet for homes with children and other friendly pets. It thrives under human contact and interaction and can be considered as highly demanding. It is able to spend hours on the laps of its favorite human. Giving the cat the attention it needed is not difficult considering its highly loving and affectionate nature. It has a keen sense of curiosity and couple with its astuteness, it is no surprise to see this cat exploring the house and getting its paws on drawers, door knobs, switches and buttons of gadgets.
This is a hearty and healthy breed with an average lifespan of 15 years. There are no known genetic health issues. However, it is still important to obtain a written health guarantee from qualified breeders when purchasing the cat to ensure that it is not contracted with common feline diseases.
Cyprus Aphrodite can be suited for indoor living. Due to its moderate level of activeness and playfulness, it is necessary for an adventure zone to be created. Equip the play area with cat toys, cat trees and cat gym sets. An outdoor garden would be ideal for it to tap on its agility in running and exploring. A game of fetch would also be prefect within an outdoor space. The outdoor area must however be safe and escape-proof. Having a fairly high demand for attention, the Cyprus Aphrodite would require a family that would be ready to give it the attention and care it requires. Its adaptable and sociable nature also makes it an ideal breed for homes with children and other friendly pets.


While we all know the Pittsburgh Steelers as a six-ring powerhouse, times weren't always so golden. Quite frankly, before the Chuck Noll era, the team sucked. So when the Steelers scored nine touchdowns, forced nine turnovers and held the New York Giants to 15 rushing yards en route to a 63-7 victory at Forbes Field, fans were so excited that they stormed the field and ripped down a goal post.

The uneven play of Steelers quarterback Mark Malone could drive a lot of fans crazy. Fan Tony Morelli, of Wintersville, Ohio, really took his anger with the mustachioed signal-caller to the next level. According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette at the time, Morelli plowed his Plymouth through the gates of Three Rivers Stadium and ran over eight, 10-gallon vats of nacho-cheese sauce before driving to the third level via interior ramps. According to the P-G, Morelli "attributed his frustration [to] the performance of Mark Malone, the Steeler quarterback." Stadium officials found Morelli on the field "kicking field goals without a football." The charges against Morelli were dropped the following April when he made restitution of $1,345 — of which $685 was the cost of the nacho cheese.

Q: Carrying out a Wilcox test in Rstudio on a large dataframe I have a dataframe for which the row names are genes, and the column names are sample names. Each of the sample names is a string of letters and numbers, followed by either 'TissueA' or 'TissueB'. I need to carry out a wilcox test to test for differential expression between samples containing 'TissueA' in the title or 'TissueB'. How would I go about doing this? (I am new to coding so if explanations could be kept simple that would be great!)

A: First of all you should create a vector the same length of your sample number indicating if they are of tissueA or tissueB. For example, if you have 3 samples of tissueA and 3 samples of tissueB it should look like this:
tissue <- c("TissueA", "TissueA", "TissueA", "TissueB", "TissueB", "TissueB")

then you can use the apply function to do a wilcox for each row (each gene) in your data frame:
results <- apply(X = df, MARGIN = 1, FUN = function(x)wilcox.test(x~tissue))

X = df is your dataframe. MARGIN = 1 is for applying the function to the rows of df. With x~tissue your are doing a wilcox test in your df as a function of the vector that distinguishes your samples into two groups.
This code will do what you are asking for, however if your data is from a high-throughput experiment there are dedicated packages for calculating differential expression of genes, such as DEseq2.
EDIT: how to create the tissue vector based on column names of your data frame
You will need to install the stringr library for this one
library(stringr)
tissue <- str_extract(colnames(df), pattern = "Tissue.")

The point after "Tissue" in the pattern means that any character after "Tissue" is acceptable.

Cal State Fullerton professor's latest book tells story of swapped twins
This photo shows the four Colombian men who discovered the brother they grew up thinking was their fraternal twin was really someone else's identical twin. In this photo, one set of identical twins is seen on the right and the other on the left. (Photo by Nancy Segal)
By Wendy Fawthrop | wfawthrop@scng.com | Orange County Register
PUBLISHED: May 2, 2018 at 2:05 am | UPDATED: May 2, 2018 at 2:05 am
Nancy L. Segal, professor of psychology and author of several books about twins, has written a new book, "Accidental Brothers: The Story of Twins Exchanged at Birth and the Power of Nature and Nurture," released April 17, and has been speaking about it at appearances around Orange County.
The book tells the story of two sets of identical twins in Colombia — one of whom in each pair was swapped at birth. The two pairs grew up 150 miles apart, thinking they were fraternal twins — who are not a genetic match — until a young woman mistook one man for his identical twin.
In other recent faculty talks, Bob Engels, associate professor of cinema and television arts, spoke March 24 at an Orange County Screenwriters Association seminar in Fountain Valley on his work as a writer and producer on the original version of the TV show "Twin Peaks" in a presentation titled "She's Dead, Wrapped in Plastic."
Fraternity takes a page from Drake's songbook
The Cal State Fullerton chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha gave out over $1,000 worth of food to the homeless and shelters, and made a $500 donation to Children's Hospital of Orange County.

As part of the project, the 135-member fraternity made its own version of Drake's "God's Plan" music video, in which the artist gives away food, toys and money to people on the street. The idea and production of the fraternity's video, which can be seen on Twitter @fullertonpike, came from member Jamil Daye.
"We strive every year to fight the stereotype that comes with being in a fraternity and look forward to future projects to help our community," said Connor Snellings, Mu Epsilon chapter president.
Over the past year, the chapter has raised over $18,000, which it expects to grow to more than $25,000, to be donated to its philanthropy, Taylor Trudeau Cycle for Life.
Alum's art on display at airport
Mixed-media art by Cal State Fullerton alum Brennan Roach is on display at John Wayne Airport as part of the airport's Community Focus Space Program.
"Catching The Bull" by Brennan Roach is part of an exhibit of the Cal State Fullerton alum's work on display at John Wayne Airport.
Roach's works can be seen through May 17 on the departure level near security screening areas in Terminals A, B and C, and on the arrival level adjacent to baggage carousels 1 and 4.
"Each of Mr. Roach's pieces tells its own story, with underlying themes of self-reflection that are revealed in the intricacy of his work," said Andrew Do, chairman of the Orange County Board of Supervisors, which oversees the airport.
Roach's pieces on display bring together separate moments in his life, many based on doodles he made on napkins at bars or restaurants.
"I make a line on paper, it's there, it stays there, I react to it, I add more, I react to that, I feel the lines, the shapes, what it could be, what it wants to be," said Roach.
Roach pursued a bachelor of fine arts degree from CSUF after discovering a passion for the visual arts while creating artwork for T-shirts and fliers for his band, Time and Energy. He remains active in music while working in his studio at the Advertising Arts Building in Santa Ana.

All About Eve…and More
Wolcott during his Village Voice days; Norman Mailer at left
James Wolcott, Vanity Fair contributing editor, giant of cultural criticism and protege of Pauline Kael, was a friend of Eve Babitz and calls my Los Angeles Review of Books essay about her "superb" and quotes several paragraphs of it!
To quote him:
"It was one of those sun-sanctified afternoons in Los Angeles in the mid-1980s that I found myself at Venice Beach with the novelist Leonard Michaels, fiction writer Amy Hempel, and Eve Babitz, whose autobiographical vignettes of LA had an easygoing Mediterranean warmth and acceptance (she didn't billboard over the dark side of LA and Hollywood, she just didn't elevate it into a noir nihilism) that was the antithesis of Joan Didion's desert vision of bleached bones beneath numbed nerves. The pleasure principle still prevailed in Eve's writing, whatever the setbacks and heartbreaks. The four of us attended to the daily show of oiled flexings at Muscle Beach, with Leonard Michaels talking about his next movie, not knowing that there would be no next movie, that the disaster of the adaptation of his novel The Men's Club would capsize his morale. He later published part of a journal in a literary screening saying that after the screening of the film he felt as if cataracts had grown in the eyes of his soul. Yes, he took it hard. He's gone now and Eve–well, Eve hasn't written anything since the traumatic fire that left her body badly burned. (Her most recent book, and a sweetly idiosyncratic book it is, was Two by Two, a personal account of the tango, salsa, and two-step dance scene in LA, came out in 1999 to zero fanfare; it's a book that even Eve fans don't seem to have heard of.) I had heard that her dress had caught fire in a parking lot, but only half of that turned out to be true. I often wondered what happened to Eve, having lost contact with her because I fell out of contact with Amy Hempel, not because of any falling out of any other because. I need to get back to her, say hello.
Others have been wondering about Eve Babitz too, such as Holly Brubach, who wrote a receptive, perceptive reappreciation of Eve for the New York Times's T magazine.
And now my new friend Lili Anolik has alerted me to a superb Eve Redux essay written by Steffie Nelson for the Los Angeles Review of Books that I must have missed during the Christmas craziness. It's titled "LA Woman," and it begins…"
Thanks, Mr. Wolcott! I hope we will meet someday in another circle of writers.
Previous postOur Cinderella Moment Next postL.A. Woman


Today I turn 35. I'm looking forward to 35. I think it will be a good year. I know so many people dread getting older, but I really look forward to it! I am certainly a self-confessed late bloomer and I think I only improve with age! I'm off on a birthday adventure with Donnie and the boys, but I will be back later to share photos and stories of what is sure to be a great day.
Last Friday, after talking about it for ages, Heidi and I decided to finally visit our town's historical society. It's housed in one of the loveliest old homes in town, the Oller House, named for the family who built and lived in the home. We were given a tour by one of the society's members and she even briefly looked for some information on either of our homes, but was unsuccessful. I was a bit disappointed, because I've been doing my own research on the original owners of my home and I think there must be more to their stories. I'm really hoping to go back another time and see if I can do some of my own research or even eventually volunteer. My job limits the amount of time I can actually help out, but I would love to spend some spare Saturdays assisting with whatever needs done.
Isn't she a beauty?! I've actually been inside this home previously. When I was in middle school, they used to hold a haunted house in the house. I may be mistaken, but I think a group of high school students used to put it on or at least help out. I only remember bits and pieces, but I do clearly remember running out the exit frantically, probably screaming! I wished I would have taken more photos of the inside, but I didn't think to ask if it was okay to take photos until we were all the way up on the third floor, at the end of the tour. The furnishings aren't original, save for two pieces, but it is filled with donated pieces that would have been typical to the period when the house was built. There are portraits of the family members, though, and the wall coverings are reproductions of those that were originally in the home.
Of course the only photos I would take would be of old dolls and toys! Way up on the third level of the house was where the servants lived, but there was this one small round room with a tall vaulted ceiling that was used as a playroom for the children. It was so sweet and sunny. I could imagine little Victorian children playing in the room! Oh how I wish I would have snapped a photo of the shower in the upstairs bathroom. I think luxurious would be the best word to describe it. I promise to take lots more photos after my next visit!
While you're busy enjoying your day off and munching on barbecue food, take some time to remember the real reason behind this holiday. So many brave lives have been lost while serving our country and I think we tend to take their sacrifices for granted. We have plans to watch the Memorial Day parade that comes down our little street every year. I think it's been coming down our street for probably the last hundred or so years, but I couldn't find any information online with the actual dates. And I couldn't post on Monday without sharing some music, so here you go!
It doesn't really have anything to do with the holiday, but it sure is lovely!
This is the second book in The Paper Magician Series. You can read my review of the first book in this post. I really enjoyed the first book in this series, so this sequel had a lot to live up to! I think it did a great job of picking right back up where the first book left off and, for me, the story was just as strong. The third book in this series comes out next month and I am so looking forward to it. I love all the elements of magic this series has to offer and the attention the author has paid to really describing the different manipulations and spells that go into each type of magic!
I think I can best sum up my feelings for this book by saying that I stayed up until 2am on a weeknight to finish this book, after starting it earlier in the evening. I am truly a sucker for a good fairytale and just tend to really enjoy fantasy and magic. This book has it all! There are so many great quotable lines from this book and I particularly like this one- "Sometimes the plainest of things conceal the most unimaginable wonders..." This quote really applies to the main character, Clara, who instead of being overshadowed by so many of the fantastic people and creatures of the book, really shines as a strong heroine.
I haven't actually finished this one yet, but I'm really enjoying the stories so far. Each story is self contained, so it's been easy to pick this one up whenever I have a spare moment. I have to say, I really didn't think much of nuns before starting this book. I didn't think their work extended outside of the church, so I was quite surprised and these ladies have definitely been serving as great inspiration. If you're one of those people who want to change the world (me), you will love this book!
I apologize for the repeat photos, if you follow me on Instagram, but I thought I would share some of the things I've been working on lately. After my large sale right before Easter, I was left feeling a little burnt out. I realized that I did too much in too little time and I really didn't enjoy it. I don't want to do that again. This is a fun side business, a hobby that just happened to turn into a way for me to make a bit of extra money, so I am easing my way back in and am enjoying creating again. I picked up some great supplies at a recent fabric and craft supply sale and I always have a million ideas in my head, so I'm excited to get back to making!
I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day! I got to sleep in late, until Oscar woke me to let me know my special breakfast was ready. Donnie had made french toast with fresh strawberries. Yum! I had a lazy morning and then we headed to Wegman's to stock up on sushi and other goodies for a picnic. The weather was perfect and was especially lovely under the shade of a big maple tree. The boys spent the picnic playing in the grass and bringing me lots of daisylions (dandelions) and fallen whirlybirds from the tree above. We took a long scenic drive afterwards and then I got to do absolutely nothing productive for the rest of the day. What a spoiled mama!
These silly boys made for a really special Mother's Day!
Since my iPod died, we've been mostly listening to mix CDs and NPR in the car, but sometimes the boys request dance songs. I haven't really figured out what exactly constitutes a dance song to the little dudes, but this seems like a pretty good dance song to me!
On a side note, has anyone ever actually been to a party where people broke into dance solos? I see things like that in movies and in this video, so I feel like maybe I am missing out. I don't actually even remember being at a party where there was any dancing, let alone random solos and routines!

An economist analyses the condition of the market and prospects for its development in the future. His or her practical use of electronic computers is a must. The activities of an economist at an enterprise range from bookkeeper control the financial state of an enterprise and perform a lot of useful calculations. A manager is an actual administrator. Having a good command of the economic situation in the region and the demands of the market a person with an economist's diploma may establish his own business, or he may become a partner of a joint venture. It is very important for an economist to know a foreign language, especially English. That is because contracts between our country and many countries of the world are becoming wider with every coming day. Every economist has a chance to go abroad or to deal with foreign businessmen coming to our country. But to become a good economist one must work hard and get not only theoretical knowledge but also great practical skills.

The Quad | Louisville's Unconventional Approach to Success
Louisville's Unconventional Approach to Success
By Jack Styczynski
March 26, 2012 2:19 pm March 26, 2012 2:19 pm
It's down to the Final Four in the N.C.A.A. men's basketball tournament.
Three of the remaining teams — Kansas, Kentucky and Ohio State — completely fit The Quad's statistical profile for success, with top 50 national rankings in field goal percentage defense, assist-to-turnover ratio and rebounding margin, not to mention a fourth category that had been the most correlated to reaching the Final Four before the last two seasons: offensive field goal percentage.
Louisville, outside the top 100 in all but field goal percentage defense, does not fit.
As such, it's all the more interesting to go back and take a look at what Cardinals Coach Rick Pitino said about our analysis before the season began, because he had a different opinion than any of the other coaches surveyed on what statistics are most significant to winning.
"We have a defensive chart that if we get 35-plus deflections, which encompasses five different areas of defense — steals, tips from behind, blocked shots, actual deflections and loose ball recoveries — if we get 95 percent of that, don't allow the opposition to shoot a high percentage from the 3-point line, we'll win 95 percent of our games," he said.
Not all of those statistics are officially compiled, but Louisville does rank in the top 30 nationally in steals per game, blocked shots per game and 3-point field goal percentage defense. Pitino also mentioned something Virginia Commonwealth Coach Shaka Smart called a key to his team's surprising Final Four run last year and subsequent success this season.
"If I'm forcing 23 turnovers and only turning over 13, and I have that 10 differential, that's meaningful," said Pitino.
Turnover margin has not been an overwhelming strength for Louisville this season — ranking 94th in the nation — but the Cardinals did do well in that category in their most recent wins over Michigan State and Florida.
So what's the ultimate takeaway from the analysis?
While there is a preferred formula for reaching the Final Four, it can still be done the unconventional way, as V.C.U. and now Louisville have proven.
And that's the beauty of college basketball and its single-elimination postseason format.

Marv Langston served as Department of Defense Deputy Chief Information Officer (CIO), where he helped initiate the Global Information Grid, Public Key Infrastructure - Common Access Cards, and led the Defense Department Year 2000 transformation. Prior to that he held positions as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Navy for C4I, Navy's first CIO, and Director of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Information Systems Office. In 1999, Government Computer Week magazine honored him with an Executive of the Year award. More recently he wrote an Open Letter to the US Navy leadership that I believe applies to all who are thinking about the right go-forward IT strategy for the new year and the new decade.
When 2010 was barely one week old, state CIO Teri Takai published ITPL-10-01, which serves to "formally establish the use of Open Source Software (OSS) in California state government as an acceptable practice."
Greg Stein (Apache developer and all-around nice guy) made an off-hand comment about open source trademarks in an article(How to Screw Your (Open Source Software) Customers). He was talking about how many users of MySQL have actually using a purchased proprietary licensed copy of the software, and not the open source licensed copy. MySQL's business model uses dual licensing: the GPL, and for the folks whom its strictures are unacceptable, a standard proprietary license.
The following is a comment I left on a blog posting by John Mark Walker at OStatic.
I would be delighted to see Larry Augustin acting as the CEO of an Open Source company, but my knowledge of his past actions makes me dubious. Will SugarCRM remain faithful to the open source model? Or will it be carved up into a mixed-up model of giving away freely that which the company deems to be "low value" and keeping proprietary what the company deems to be "high value"?
As families go, the Linux operating system family has become the family among the Top500 supercomputers, running on 89.20% of all systems. Proprietary Unix, which used to the the preferred OS for these supercomputers in the 1990s is down to 5% share, and Windows is reported to be running on exactly 5 systems, for a 1% share.
A lot of people seem to think that open source is a magic solution to project management and that open source projects will automatically attract a large and healthy community of contributors and users who will improve the software. This, of course, is not the case. In fact, creating a successful open source project is a really major and difficult effort. You have to deliver an initial promise that people find interesting, attract other people, then facilitate and lead the community, etc.


In a Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") Arbitration Statement of Claim filed in October 2017, Claimant Seyboldt, representing himself pro se, sought the expungement of language from his Central Registration Depository records ("CRD") and $1 in compensatory damages. In the Matter of the FINRA Arbitration Between Eric Seyboldt, Claimant, vs. Nationwide Securities, LLC, Respondent (FINRA Arbitration #, DATE).
Claimant alleged that at the time of his resignation in January 2016, and prior to Respondent concluding an investigation, it added language that mischaracterized his status and gave a false impression of his employment at Nationwide. . .
Respondent Nationwide did not oppose Claimant's request for expungement.
The Sole FINRA Arbitrator found Respondent Nationwide liable and ordered it to pay to Claimant Seyboldt $1 in compensatory damages.
Is this a FULL TERMINATION?
Note: A "Yes" response will terminate ALL registrations with all SROs and all jurisdictions.
7B. Currently is, or at termination was, the individual under internal review for fraud or wrongful taking of property, or violating investment-related statutes, regulations, rules or industry standards of conduct?
1. violating investment-related statutes, regulations, rules or industry standards of conduct?
2. fraud or the wrongful taking of property?
3. failure to supervise in connection with investment-related statutes, regulations, rules or industry standards of conduct?
[T]he Arbitrator made a finding that Respondent drew premature conclusions regarding Claimant's conduct prior to the completion of an investigation. As a consequence, Claimant was unable to secure alternate employment due to Respondent's CRD language. Both parties have concluded the CRD language should be expunged to avoid additional harm to Claimant. . .
A noteworthy aspect of this FINRA Arbitration Decision is a rare finding that "Claimant was unable to secure alternate employment due to Respondent's CRD language." You rarely, if ever, see such a determination because it is difficult to prove a nexus between allegedly defamatory U5/CRD language and decisions to not hire an associated person.
It would have been helpful for the FINRA Arbitrator to have set forth the inappropriate comments so that we could better appreciate the nature of the defamation, however, that act of disclosure would likely further victimize Claimant Seyboldt and, as such, I understand the omission. Similarly, from the professional perspective of a lawyer who represents folks such as Seyboldt, I would have been interested to learn about the proof that demonstrated how the cited defamation had prevented Claimant's ability to "secure alternate employment." To the extent that the disclosure of such proof would also have served to victimize Claimant, I will also defer to the Arbitrator's discretion.
The award of $1 in monetary damages to Claimant is also a rare award in similar FINRA expungement cases. Given that Respondent Nationwide did not oppose Claimant's expungement request, given that the Arbitrator found defamation, given that the Arbitrator awarded $1 in compensatory damages, and given that the Arbitrator recommended expungement, I'm sort of left wondering (profoundly) whether Claimant should have asked for a more significant monetary damage and also requested punitive damages. Be that as it may, congratulations to Seyboldt for representing himself and securing an excellent outcome.

A Rich and Fulfilling Fulbright Experience in Taiwan, China and Hong Kong
Written by Monica Yang 楊雅淳 Friday, 22 April 2016 11:31
This paper contains reflections on my stay in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China as a Fulbright Senior Scholar from May to July 2015.
Research-Wide Reflections
Because the Fulbright Scholar Award is prestigious in supporting activities and projects that promote educational exchange and international understanding, I have been able to identify and collect data and collaborate with researchers and business managers in Taiwan, China, and Hong Kong. Since my research topic focuses on mergers and acquisitions among companies in these three places, researchers and data in this area are scattered in multiple disciplines (e.g., business/management, political science, and sociology). It is challenging to conduct research in three different locations within three months, however, it is also extremely worthwhile to exchange ideas with people who are doing similar research or who are conducting business with real experience.
During my stay, I gave guest lectures to graduate students (approximately 60 students and 10 faculty members) where I shared my prior and ongoing research projects. I was also able to serve as a discussant and presenter giving an oral presentation in one international conference (Asia Academy of Management). Several comments and insights that people shared with me open new perspectives on my research and understanding of local communities. With more ideas on the way, I look forward to continuing my research in the near future.
Culture-Wide Reflections
I had many positive experiences during my stay in Taipei, Hong Kong, and Hangzhou. Although these three places have a shared Chinese culture, these cities have unique historical backgrounds and paths behind their development. During my stay, I spent time visiting local museum and sites that informed me about the past and the present of these three cities/countries. The Fulbright research grant gave me a wonderful opportunity to know these places deeper and to appreciate their current achievements than my previous shorter visits. In addition, it is the people and their kindness that I will always remember. In particular, people in Taiwan are so warm and polite that I feel almost addicted to asking for help. Furthermore, I have often received questions about US culture and cultural differences between Taiwan, China, and Hong Kong. These conversations continued throughout my time in these three places, and they have sparked further mutual understanding. For instance, I noticed that people in China are not used to saying "thank you" and "please" to each other. I was once told to stop saying these words because people in China feel distant among each other by using these words. On the contrary, people in Taiwan consider these words dearly, so I am free to use "please" and "thank you" a lot in every conversation. Another cultural difference exists in the preference of public transportation. The MRT is available at each location, and it is highly recommended to take the MRT in Taipei and Hong Kong. However, the best way to get around the city in China is to use "app for taxi service" software on your cell phone.
To conclude, this has been a rich and fulfilling event in my research journey. My experiences on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have been entirely positive, and I have made friends among the faculty and students. I feel that I have been a good ambassador for Fulbright, the United States, and my home institution. I only wish I had more time to explore other cultural places in Taiwan, China, and Hong Kong.

Home Stats SQL Injections Led to 60% of UK Data Breaches
SQL Injections Led to 60% of UK Data Breaches
By internetnews.com Staff | February 06, 2010
The SQL injection is hardly a new attack vector, but it's emerging as one of the chief ways that hackers are able to gain access to supposedly secure data. eSecurity Planet looks at a new report that finds that not only are a majority of the UK's online data breaches conducted via SQL injection, but that they're growing in complexity.
Hackers used SQL injection tactics to access corporate networks in 60 percent of significant data breach incidents reviewed by 7Safe, a leading computer security and forensics consulting firm in London.
SQL injection attacks, which target vulnerable code in the database layer, have long been a nightmare for IT administrators because they're extremely difficult to defend against in a live production environment and often require multiple patches to the installed database software.
E-commerce sites and online banking customers in December learned just how painful these new and increasingly complex SQL injection attacks can be. A new variant contaminated more than 125,000 Web sites with a Trojan known to harvest credit card and other banking information.

If I want to encrypt a text content file using a symmetric algorithm like AES, is there a standard format gpg will expect, where it can detect a symmetric key (encrypted with recipient gpg public key RSA) in my output? E.g. should the encrypted key be a fixed length field at the beginning of my output?
I am not able to use a suite gpg tools or command line. I am restricted to manually using a subset of cryptography APIs supported in a legacy system.
From reading up at e.g. https://futureboy.us/pgp.html#Symmetric, https://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual/x110.html, https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880 I see that this approach seems to be in use.
But I am struggling to find any reference that would help me manually construct an appropriately structured "package".
If you encrypt a text file with the GPG utility, it randomly chooses a symmetric key, encrypts the file using that key, then encrypts the symmetric key using an asymmetric algorithm, and embeds the encrypted symmetric key in the file. There is a format that GPG uses and expects, but it is not easy to work with.
There is an RFC that describes the OpenPGP file format. It's not fun reading, but with a lot of hex dumps and a lot of time with the GPG source, I did figure out the basics of a GPG-encrypted file.
Not the answer you're looking for? Browse other questions tagged encryption rsa public-key symmetric pgp or ask your own question.
Why the symmetric key layer in PGP?
Securely send public key from client to server in RSA?
private-key can't be traced (GPG)?
Why is Symmetric encryption classed as Private Key?

India's currency has experienced considerable volatility in recent months against the dollar, as GDP has plummeted to a ten year low and concern is raised over the government's ability to implement the necessary economic reforms before the general election next year.
In light of this sluggish performance, the country's currency derivatives, including futures and options, have gone up by 50 percent in average turnover to 60bn in June, against the 41bn for May. The rupee hit a record low against the dollar in June of 59.98.
Currency derivatives are contracts that can be traded when the value of the currency either hits a certain level or at a future date. The increase in trading of these derivatives reflects the low value of rupees, and many observers feel that it is an opportunity for investors.
Indian importers have been badly hit by the decline in value of the rupee, and so have increased their level of trading in currency derivatives to hedge against any further losses. The dollar's relative strength in recent months has led to difficulties for India's importer-base, and the Reserve Bank of India has taken to selling US currency to try and sustain the rupee above the 60 per dollar mark.
While some think 60 per dollar is where the rupee will stay, after the recent falls some think that India's currency will settle at around 56 per dollar in the longer term. Ratings agency Crisil said that it the rupee was particularly vulnerable to even minor shocks, and the Fed's decision is likely to only worse the situation.
India recorded a deficit in its current account of 6.7 percent of its GDP during the last quarter of 2012. This has placed a considerable burden on the rupee, which is also suffering from rising inflation.
