PHP Question
Search function with flags
I am trying to implement a quick search bar to search a table populated by an SQL database. The search will not search the table, but will generate SQL statements and search the database. I need to implement a search function using PHP that will use flags to stop the search. This is my code so far:
//THIS CODE WILL EXECUTE WHEN THE SEARCH BUTTON IS PRESSED
if($_REQUEST['btnsearch']){
if(isset($_POST['quicksearch']) and !empty($quicksearch)){
$sql = "SELECT column_name FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name ='alerts_table'
AND column_name IN('name', 'year','make','model','alert','date')";
$retvalues = mysqli_query($conn, $sql);
$data = array();
//LOOP POPULATES THE ARRAY WITH THE CURRENT COLUMN NAMES.
for($counter = 0; $counter <= $row=mysqli_fetch_array($retvalues, MYSQL_ASSOC); $counter++){
$string = $row["column_name"];
$data[$counter] = $string;
}
$length = count($data);
$flag = 1;
while($flag == 1){
for($x = 0; $x <= $length - 1; $x++){
$sql3="SELECT * FROM alerts_table WHERE $data[$x] = $quicksearch";
$retvalues2=mysqli_query($conn, $sql3);
if(!empty($retvalues2))
{
//POPULATE THE TABLE WITH RESULTS HERE !!!!!!!!!
$flag = -1; ///HOW CAN I BREAK THE LOOP???
}
}
}
}else{
Answer
From the PHP break documentation:
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
break ends execution of the current for, foreach, while, do-while or switch structure.
break accepts an optional numeric argument which tells it how many nested enclosing structures are to be broken out of. The default value is 1, only the immediate enclosing structure is broken out of.
In your case you have two loops; a while loop and an inner for loop. You can set your flag in your inner loop to a value that will stop the while loop, and then use a break to stop the for loop.
$flag = 1;
while($flag == 1){
for($x = 0; $x <= $length - 1; $x++){
// ...
if(!empty($retvalues2))
{
$flag = -1; // set while condition to false
break; // break out of for loop
}
}
// execution continues here after break
// end of while body, start next loop iteration
// $flag == 1 => false, and the while loop will end

WOULD LIKE TO CONTRIBUTE NEW VOCABULARY, DEFINITIONS TO UNKNOWN WORDS, LITERATURE.
Good Day Every One,
Topic: I WOULD LIKE TO CONTRIBUTE NEW VOCABULARY, GLOSSARY, DEFINITIONS TO UNKNOWN WORDS, LITERATURE, GRAMMAR ETIQUETTE.
Perhaps continuously add lost grammar of the highest caliber to continuously feed our brains, I am not new to Wikipedia, I have been a Fan, reader, follower, and donation support for over a decade.
Since i am, new to creating any post, I would like to ask if this is Kosher with Wikipedia Rules, and the community.
I intent to deliver quality Wiki's with relevant, and truthful content, which does entail time and effort as all the pros know.
Essentially contribute to what Wikipedia has been accomplishing, I wanted to respectfully ask for word, grammar, etc, etc.
Q: I would like to essentially ask before i start, so there is no time or effort wasted on a misunderstanding of technicalities.
Thank you for reading,

* Cheers and thanks for your interest in editing Wikipedia, though I'm afraid it might not be your "cup of tea". Wikipedia presents and summarizes, in accessible, neutral language what has already been written about in reliable sources that must be properly cited. While there is some room for some creativity in writing, it is a lot more like technical writing. An editor's opinions, knowledge, synthesis of sources, etc., should not come into play per WP:OR. You should also have a look at WP:NOT for what Wikipedia is and is not. Note that, if you're focused on words in particular, Wiktionary might be more appropriate. I hope this helps. —[ Alan M 1 (talk) ]— 17:34, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi AlanM1,
Thank you for the Reply, and Helpful directions, I am making note of everything, As well as checking the Wiktionary, this makes absolute sense. Again thanks for the Help, Good thing i double checked before creating, and posting on the wrong place.
If you have a moment, I wanted to know am i using the Reply or talk correctly by replying this way ( modifying post ) I would like to make sure i am seeing everything correctly, certainly would be funny to view a forum or html as an app.
I clicked the link with your name, and well as talk link, one lead me to your page, awesome by the way, and the talk button lead me else where.
Hence, responding through article modifications. Making sure i get it right, well anyhow, see you around, thanks again.

* Hi . You would be very welcome over at Wikipedia Wiktionary, but most words are already there. Any new words need at least three citations spanning at least a year and more than one author. There are lots of definitions there that need improving, but it takes a while to learn the format, so don't be discouraged if some edits get reverted. Dbfirs 19:41, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

* Note that it's common to insert increasing numbers of colons in front of responses to break them up, as has been done here (this one has four colons in front, the next should have five, etc., cycling back to none when it gets to be too far to the right to be useful.

* Hello, . I'm afraid the answer is that you shouldn't. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not social media or a business directory. Any attempt to use it for promotion is forbidden. If several people, wholly unconnected with you, have chosen to write at length about you and been published somewhere with a reputation for fact checking and editorial control, then it is possible for Wikipedia to have an article about you, which should be based almost entirely on what those writers have published about you. The article will not belong to you, you will have no control over its contents, and almost nothing it in should be referenced to what you say or want to say. You are not forbidden from trying to create an autobiography, but if you do so, you will be taking the already difficult task of creating a Wikipedia article, and making it much more difficult by trying to write neutrally about yourself. I earnestly advise you not to try it. --ColinFine (talk) 21:09, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

Determining official Wikipedia editor role and authority of editors coming in commenting on a persons additions
I'm quite new at Wikipedia editing (1 month), and did a few additions to articles.
Various other editors have come in making changes, sometimes small like spelling or grammer, but sometimes large, "like this violates policy x, policy y, and policy z."
In certain cases, I see the violation, and have attempted to correct. And in certain cases, didn't find the assertion of violations expressed in an imperative or non-collegial way.
In other cases, a person comes in, and makes demands of removal (in a peremptory tone). Then, when I click on the person's name, I don't find sufficient detail on what the authority level of the person within the Wikipedia authority structure is, or the person's experience level, or anything about their education, or how much they are able to comprehend technical matters under discussion. This is problematic, and is causing a lot of wasted.
The issues are coming in over work on the articles Medicaid estate recovery and Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and an editor, who appears to have some authority in the official Wikipedia structure has indicated deletions of what I wrote are coming.
That deletions are coming, if they are coming from the official legitimate hierarchy of editors at Wikipedia, or by whatever legitimate consensus, is not a problem for me. But for new creators of content experiencing similar issues, the authority structure really should be exposed.
* So, my question is-->
How do we found out an editor's authority level, and any other information (like what their field of study is, experience duration) so we don't waste a lot of time? (And so you don't lose a lot of content creators. That is, you try to contribute, and all kinds of people with names that don't mean anything come at you with criticisms, sometimes imperative, and you have no idea if they have authority, or they're just someone pretending to be in charge.)
Note: This is no particular complaint about the one editor that the issue is coming up with for me. The editor seems attempting to be helpful throughout my interaction. I sent, today, an email through the system to the editor suggesting he add his authority level, and other relevant information, to his page, so that people will understand the authority to give imperative-sounding instructions.
In fact, if there is no place else to get that information, I might suggest each person giving imperatively-expressed instructions should be required by Wikipedia rules to post that information prominently on their page. NormSpier (talk) 20:40, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
* Welcome to Wikipedia. We do not operate with ranks or levels of authority. Wikipedia is built by consensus between editors. If someone makes a change you don't agree with, discuss it on the article's talk page. See WP:BRD and WP:DR for details. RudolfRed (talk) 20:53, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
* fixing ping. RudolfRed (talk) 20:53, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
* No authority? The person in question really sounds like they have the authority. Thus, I had thought they had authority. (I have addressed, already, the issues extensively on the talk pages for the articles involved, so we'll see what happens.) Thank you for the helpful response.
* NormSpier (talk) 20:58, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
* it is confusing to most new users, but authority on Wikipedia is bottom up. There are editors called administrators that have a set of tools to enable them to carry out the decisions of the community, but they only have limited authority to use them unilaterally. I would guess that the Affordable Care Act might be under discretionary sanctions for American politics, so on that article, administrators do have some unilateral authority.
* Second, what an individual's qualifications are is irrelevant. It doesn't matter. We determine content by consensus formed from arguments based in reliable sources and informed by Wikipedia policies and guidelines. One's resume doesn't factor in. John from Idegon (talk) 21:14, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
* to be perfectly clear, administrators have no authority over article content. Removing vandalism or whatever is one thing but when an admin is editing an article, they are just another user, and if they are editorially involved they should not be using their admin tools at all. (as an aside, there is a user script you can use that automatically shows you extra details when you look at someone's user or talk page, such as how long they've been ending and what user rights they have. More information is at User:PleaseStand/User info) Beeblebrox (talk) 21:24, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
* Thanks both of you for additional information. Can you tell me (a) how to tell if the editor in question is an administrator? (I don't see it on the user's page.) How to tell definitively if a page is under "discretionary sanctions"? (ACA apparently is: I had to wait a week and do 100 edits before being allowed to edit it, and further, something pops up for me now about it when I start editing.) I assume the other article is not, since nothing pops up, but it might be nice to know how to know for sure.
* (Right now, the status is it's just me debating the one editor. No one else has chimed in. Hopefully, other people who understand the topic will come in. The editor in question has sought people from working groups, but I don't know that they'll come in.)
* John from IdegonThanks for "credentials don't factor in". That's actually how I conduct myself personally, as well, never disclosing credentials unless asked. In the case in question, I just have no idea whether the editor in question understands the details of the stuff the article is about. I have no idea that they do or don't. So, a degree in economics or health economics would reassure me that the editor at least understands the technical details. It's not necessary at all (I don't have economics degree--mine is math), but it's more like seeing such a resume would be more or less sufficient, and keep me from worrying if the editor understands the subject of the article.NormSpier (talk) 21:39, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
* , you seem to have a misunderstanding of the role of Wikipedia editors. What we do is accurately and neutrally summarize what reliable published sources say about a topic. No more and no less than that. An individual editor's level of education is irrelevant. Far more important is the editor's understanding of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. High school students who understand this can be outstanding editors and those with PhDs who fail to understand how Wikipedia works can be very poor editors indeed. There are no "authority levels" among editors working on content. Everyone is equal as long as they comply with policies and guidelines. And everyone can issue warnings if an editor strays from policies and guidelines. No special authority is needed to issue warnings. Only administrators can delete or protect pages, or block other editors, but administrators have no special powers when it comes to determining content. I am an administrator and I have never seen a userpage of an administrator that did not say that the person was an administrator somewhere on that page. Sometimes the only mention is in the categories at the bottom of the page. <b style="color:#070">Cullen</b><sup style="color:#707">328 Let's discuss it 21:57, 5 September 2019 (UTC)

Editors can choose to indicate credentials on their User pages, but there is no requirement. David notMD (talk) 03:25, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
Background: NormSpier has made more than 100 edits to the two articles in question, increasing length of one more than 10X. An editor put template tags at the top. There are already lengthy discussions (well monologues) on the relevant Talk pages. NormSpier's position is that only experts on a topic should be allowed to edit articles on that topic, or at a minimum, should be required to first declare their expertise. Wikipedia cautions against editors individually or in cadres acting as if they "own" articles. David notMD (talk) 11:12, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
* Hi, David notMD. My position is most definitely not that only experts on a topic should be allowed to edit articles on that topic, and I regret any impression I have created that I feel otherwise. Rather, it's that people editing should restrain themselves, using self-knowledge, to what they can do effectively. I'm delighted when people point out defects, and fix things, and make things better. Each person hopefully will have a natural sense of what they can do well. In the case of the particular editor giving the imperative tone, from the one person alone (with no concurrence from any other editor that it needs to be done), I'm getting stuff like "we have to take this down", "the article will be really cut down", "this has to go". The grounds are "neutrality" and "original research", which I really don't see as existing, at this stage of the two articles. (There may, however, be subtle issues that have the article needing adjusting or removal of small parts, in my mind.) The qualifications stuff is that I'm feeling the editor in question is declaring everything original research because the editor is unfamiliar with the details of the ACA, perhaps not willing take the time to learn the details (which are in references and text in the two articles), and possibly (only possibly) may not have a good head for for understanding the content technically. My guess is the editor may be declaring the stuff "original research" by looking at superficial signs, not taking the time, and possibly (only possibly) lacking the skills, to do the job properly. This is where issues of qualifications are coming up. (Thus, I clicked on your page, and I see you have a Ph.D. in nutrition. I would tend to see that as something fairly (not perfectly) sufficient, but not necessary, to indicate that you wouldn't tend to overstep the bounds of what you can do effectively on the technically involved parts of a nutritional biochemistry article.) Let me state: most definitely, I do not believe credentials are necessary to edit an article. But I do believe each person needs to have a sense of what they can do correctly in reviewing articles. (Like you, I am not an MD. If a person is sufficiently sick, with more than like an obvious cold, I have the self-understanding to send them to someone who is an MD, and I won't try to cure them myself.)
* (Also, I noted on your page you indicate you have a doctorate. I'm keeping mine, so far, off of my page, because of my own feeling that there should not be rank here at Wikipedia, or in general, except where really needed. (My page only indicates that I have a mathy background.) Anyway, I think you should keep the detail you have on your page. It helps in the job of doing a better article, when generally what happens is that all sorts of fully anonymous editors come by and make deep changes and deep comments. And nothing about what there role is, what their background is, what their interests are.
* Otherwise, those interested, please note that the one article I expanded by a factor of 10x, Medicaid estate recovery, when I started to expand it, said "This article is just a stub. Please help and expand it ..." It was only maybe 6 lines at the start, and I did what it said.

* NormSpier, PhD or no, your last comment reads self-contradictory to me. At any rate, you have said enough in it that I would want to be pinged if it was about me. So, I am pinging who seems to be who this is about (just as a courtesy notification). If you think the other editor doesn't get it, tell them so frankly, and seek a third opinion, go to dispute resolution or initiate a request for comment. Talking about a user's competence here, is inappropriate. If any user's incompetence is disrupting the building of this encyclopedia, there are appropriate fora to raise the issue, as competence is required, but the Teahouse is not it. Finally, if you would keep your comments succinct and to the point, it would help uninvolved editors to be able to easily catch up and participate. On a cursory glance, immediately after this post was initiated, I had actually been impressed by Newslinger's patience in reading and replying to your walls of text. But, if you are only complying not collaborating and they are unaware of it, you are wasting both your times. Regards! Usedtobecool TALK ✨ 18:42, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
Thanks for the ping,.
Hi again,. I'm sorry if my writing style is "peremptory". I tend to state things as I see them (especially when interpreting policy), but I'm not asserting authority when I do so. To be absolutely clear, I am not an administrator on Wikipedia. In content disputes, all editors (including administrators) have equal voices and work together to determine article content through consensus. Arguments are still expected to be backed by Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and editors regularly refer to applicable rules during discussion. There is no editor hierarchy in content discussions, and factors such as an editor's education level are not considered on Wikipedia.
I apologize for the delay in responding to your comments, but the volume of your comments is high enough that I wouldn't have time to do anything else on Wikipedia if I attended only to your edits. Unfortunately, no editors responded to the invitations I sent to the WikiProjects listed at the top of Talk:Medicaid estate recovery. If you are no longer interested in the review plan I proposed in, we can resolve this entire dispute with requests for comment (i.e. asking the entire Wikipedia community whether your content additions should remain in the articles). Please let me know (preferably in the NPOVN noticeboard discussion) if this works for you. Thanks. — Newslinger talk 19:16, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
Sure,, ask the whole community sounds fine. (Do note that are only two articles now under discussion, ACA and Medicaid estate recovery. I removed my content from the other 4, as discussed prior.) NormSpier (talk) 19:29, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
* Okay. I'll continue this conversation at the NPOVN noticeboard discussion to keep everything in one place. — Newslinger talk 19:33, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
* I need to check now on whether the process for the above has been appropriate. (I am continuing the question above with a question about the procedure used here by, so that you can enlighten me.) posted this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view/Noticeboard#Requests_for_comment , which in the context of the now only 2 articles in question Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act and Medicaid estate recovery, has proposed keep Medicaid estate recovery (the minor article) and delete all of my contributions to Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act. Then, all are asked to vote on the binary choice. Effective delete or keep all contributions to Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act. The binary choice seems fishy to me, since the optimal resolution is by line by line handling, though apparently the resources are not available. Note that one of my added sections is "Problems", detailing 5 problems with the ACA, including "Subsidy cliff" and "Family Glitch" "Excessive Copays", in article that is extremely pro ACA, and a year ago, in the talk section, a commenter indicated the article was inappropriately pro ACA. Thus, would any one, perhaps Beeblebrox or RudolfRed, who seem to be alert on issues or editor overstep, explain how the binary choice could be given? (So far, no one besides has had any comments that anything in the "Problems" section is biased, or incorrect. Some people seem to have passed over the sections, making at least corrections of grammer, spelling, or where I have written "the the", but there has been no comment that anything is biased, etc.)
NormSpier (talk) 20:53, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
* To clarify the question I am asking now, it is about procedure, which I am new to here. I see you have put down the Request for Comments here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view/Noticeboard#Requests_for_comment and my resulting question about procedure (to Beeblebrox and RudolfRed, based on their familiarity with procedure and editor oversteps, and Newslinger and whoever else wants to handle the question), is Newslinger has phrased the question in the RFC as:
* "For the articles which we disagree on, we can start a request for comment on the respective talk pages to ask the whole Wikipedia community whether your changes should be kept or removed. Editors who participate in the discussion might suggest other solutions, but they will usually choose one or the other."
* I'm questioning whether this is the standard way things are done. It's a course question, "keep it all in", or "take it all out". Is this standard? Is this how it's supposed to be done? Again, one could be suspicious that you're trying to get out the 5 problems with the ACA that I put in, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act#Problems, out, for reasons of your own political opinions. (I'm not saying you actually are doing it for that reason.) So my exact question for the Teahouse, where users learn about the software and procedures at Wikipedia, is, "is it standard to use such a coarse, leading "keep it in" or "take it out" question in the phrasing for RFC"?? (Biased to possibly just get rid of a whole load of user content?)
NormSpier (talk) 01:26, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
* Content that is added at once is generally treated as a unit if contested. Once a consensus is reached for whether the version with all of the added content or without it is preferable, further edits can be discussed to either reintroduce/remove individual portions. signed,Rosguill talk 01:52, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
* Rosguill explains the process concisely. The initial request for comment makes a decision on a starting point for the article (before or after the content additions). Whether specific portions of the content should be included or removed can then be debated on the article's talk page (in this case, Talk:Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act). — Newslinger talk 04:20, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
Is there a way to find out a music artist's chart history across different countries?
I'm not a beginner to Wikipedia, but I've never really gone into full-style editing and I would like to ask if there is a faster way to check a music artist's chart history? It seems troublesome to manually go and check if the artist charted in every country. Are there any editors out there who are specialised in this field? I'm also trying to create a draft for a new music artist, but I'm kind of unsure on how to go about doing it. Thanks in advance! Nahnah4 (talk | contribs) 08:19, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
Rewrite A Page
While going through Modern Paganism, I discovered the page Wiccan views on LGBT people and found its scope quite narrow. Considering there's many other Modern Pagan belief systems besides Wicca, it thought it would be more apt to expand the scope, reorganize, and rewrite. I've done some of that on my own via User:Gwenhope/Modern Pagan views on LGBT people but I really don't know how to get to the next step of actually implementing this change and how to reach consensus to do so. Assistance would be appreciated Gwen Hope (talk) (contrib) 10:59, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
* Hello and welcome to the Teahouse. For something major like an extensive addition to an article, it's probably a good idea to go to the article talk page to seek consensus from other editors that might be following that article. You could be bold and just change it, but the more extensive the change, the more likely it would just be reverted. 331dot (talk) 11:15, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
* Thank you, I did leave a thing on the talk page for the article, but it's been months and nobody has replied. Heck the article hasn't received any edits or talk action for months. Is this a WP:BOLD situation? Gwen Hope (talk) (contrib) 11:21, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

edited my first article and someone reverted it without giving any reason
So, I made my first edit on wikipedia after looking up my mum's cousin and finding his birthday was completely wrong. made some minor edits about his parents' death dates and nobody interfered with them. His article was still pretty small and poorly written so I wanted to improve it more. I checked the source for his cause of death and found it actually said something completely different. So, changed that and gave the reason. Then this editor came and reverted my edit and added a new source. I checked the source. It was a recent article that had copied from the wikipedia article... SO, obviously I changed it back because oh my god. Then the editor changed it again to a 'heart attack'! Again, the article cited does not say he had a heart attack. It just says 'natural causes'. I thought 'whatever, it probably WAS a heart attack'. Then I reorganised the page because it was not very standard. I just added some new headings (Early life, Death) and a couple sentences more detail. Changed a detail about his residence that was wrong (based on the article being cited). Then the same editor just came and reverted it without giving any reason.
What do I do? I don't really know how to use wikipedia, but the page looked way more like your usual biographical entry after I edited it than before.. This person seems weirdly possessive over this page. It's not a big page.. Do I just let them keep all the misinformation up?? I don't feel like checking all the time to make sure they've not reverted it. I guess I have a minor COI because I'm related to the subject, but he died before I was born and I never knew him - it's more of a genealogical interest - unsigned comment at 13:46 (UTC), 8 September 2019 by, signature added by
* Thank you for being interested in contributing to the Wiki! Wikipedia takes biographical information very seriously (See WP:BLP). You also can't use your personal research without a third-party, reliable source (See WP:NOR). However if you have verifiable copies of legal documents or other third-party research to correct inaccuracies, I would suggest as a new Wikipedia editor that you contact the respective project team. Each article has a talk page, where you can also create a new section to discuss any misinformation with other editors. (Also, it general policy to sign your posts on talk or help pages (like this) using four tildes ~ (See WP:SIGN).) Gwen Hope (talk) (contrib) 14:12, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
* Hi, thank you for your response. The only thing I didn't source was his birth date, because there wasn't a source given for the wrong one either. The other changes I've made have been based on the news articles already referenced in the article. Like, the cause of death on wikipedia was listed as 'illnesses relating to drug and alcohol addiction'. So, I read the article referenced. It said he died of natural causes and they were waiting on the autopsy results. I couldn't find an article with the autopsy results so I changed COD to 'natural causes'. This other editor seems to have really poor reading comprehension because they keep writing things that are clearly at odds with the articles they cite to back it up. The article, Bernard Lafferty is only part of two projects - Biography and Ireland. It's listed as low importance in the latter. So, I don't think they would be interested? I also feel like this other editor is going to ignore anything I put on the talk page since they don't put any comments when they edit? Oguhugo (talk) 14:31, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
* I read the articles cited by when undoing your revisions. They hold weight. Bernard Lafferty seems to be one of the pages Pajokie watches. I would suggest that you start a discussion with them in Talk:Bernard Lafferty instead of edit warring. That might get your banned or restricted from the page. I understand that it's easy to feel, as a new editor that you don't understand the method to the madness or that more senior editors (like Pajokie) won't give you the time of day. However, we always try to assume good faith. Don't knock it until you try it!~ Gwen Hope (talk) (contrib) 14:39, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
* Except the articles they're citing are the ones *I'm* citing. The Wikipedia article was saying completely different things to what the news articles were saying. Except of course the one news article that was ripped from Wikipedia. If someone is to get banned for reverting edits, shouldn't it be the person who gives no reason and adds poorly sourced articles? I saw in the edit history that someone had previously corrected an error on this page and Pajokie reverted it. Again, the article says one thing and Wikipedia says different. The article says Bernard Lafferty died in a house he bought himself. The wikipedia article said he died in an inherited house. I don't know why anyone would be invested in the latter, against what the source actually says.Oguhugo (talk) 14:56, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
* I know you're frustrated. Please, we need to talk this out. That's how Wikipedia works. Just start a new thread in Talk:Bernard Lafferty. Gwen Hope (talk) (contrib) 15:05, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
Pajokie created the article in 2017, but that does not convey ownership. Pajokie has been cautioned on Talk page to not participate in an edit war. As Gwenhope recommended, the best place to resolve this in at Talk:Bernard Lafferty. David notMD (talk) 18:30, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

* Hello, . An article (please don't think of it as a "page", because that suggests the kind of thing you get in social media, not an encyclopaedia) should be based almost entirely on outside sources - that is to say, sources wholly unconnected with the subject (and not based on interviews or press releases), and published by someone with a reputation for fact-checking and editorial control, such as a major newspaper, or a reputable book publisher. The subject's own publications may be used in a very limited way, to verify uncontroversial factual information like places, but the bulk of the article should be based on independent published material. See Notability for more. --ColinFine (talk) 20:24, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

Lost In History Because of No Internet
What about events witnessed by many people prior to the internet? Events that took placed before the camera phone and YouTube and no reporting or records from magazines or newspapers. I am not talking about UFO sitings...Take for example Vince Carter is a great athlete that goes down in history as the first athlete to jump over someone’s head during a basketball game, but 20 years earlier 2,000 people in a stadium firsthand witness another athlete do that but there was no recording or no one wrote about it. Wiki seems like the perfect platform to address lost history. Can i recommend we do something about that or form a team that has a section that deals with that. We can even refer to it as LOST HISTORY. This helps our users understand that its without written recorded sources...I promise this is my last question. :)

* Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources state, as noted in your prior question. We can't write about things for which there are no sources that discuss them in depth(though how would you know about something that occurred 2000 years ago if it was not written down?). What you want to do would not be possible on Wikipedia for this reason. There are places where such a thing would be permitted, such as a personal website where you control what appears there. 331dot (talk) 12:16, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

* Regarding no reporting or records from magazines or newspapers: Newspapers, magazines, and books have been around for centuries, so if it was notable, someone should have written about it. There are many projects that have digitized and made available a lot of these older materials, but, as someone else said, an offline source is fine – it just takes more leg work to find. —[ Alan M 1 (talk) ]— 05:33, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

Deleting an old company page
How do i delete a company page when am not the editor?
So recently Apollo Munich Health Insurance company has been acquired by HDFC Ergo, then what is the solution for the Apollo Munich's wikipedia page. Should the Apollo Munich's page be deleted and hence create a new page for HDFC Ergo when the merger completely happens in future or we add a write up in Apollo munich's page and then redirect people to HDFC Ergo's page initially and then later merge the pages?

* Courtesy links: Apollo Munich Health Insurance and Apollo Munich Health Insurance Company, which are probably duplicative. —[ Alan M 1 (talk) ]— 08:31, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
* There is no need to delete a subject just because it ceased to exist as a separate entity. After all, notability is not temporary. If, like in this case, both subjects already have articles, just update the article for the taken-over company (Apollo Munich Health Insurance) to past tense and add a sentence that it was acquired by HDFC ERGO General Insurance Company. See Continental Airlines for an example of another company that was taken over but still has its own article. Regards So Why 08:30, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
* Welcome to the Teahouse, . I'm sorry that it's taken a while for you to receive a response to this query. My instinct is that the existing article should simply be updated to reflect the new ownership. Even if Apollo Munich Health Insurance will cease to exist under that name, the article title can be changed and the content can reflect the change of ownership and name. Incidentally, you write that you are "not the editor", but anyone can edit any article on Wikipedia. However, if you have some sort of relationship with the company, you should avoid editing it directly and instead request changes on its talk page by following the instructions at WP:COIREQ.

How to use a physical newspaper as a source
Hi,
I have an article in a physical newspaper that I'd like to use as a source. However, I'm not sure what the best practice is for doing this? I can't find the same article online so the physical newspaper is the only thing that I have. I've had a look on the Wiki source recommendation pages etc but can't seem to find anything on this subject.
Thanks in advance!

* Hi and welcome to the Teahouse. Newspapers are a common source. You can use the template within the tags to format a newspaper source. Just click the template I linked to see examples on how to use it. Alternatively, you can use the Visual Editor and select Cite => Manual => News and it will show you a form to fill out. You can try that in the Sandbox. (It has a "URL" field but you don't have to specify an URL). Regards So Why 08:25, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
* Hello, . There are plenty of various alternative ways to code a reference, but for a physical newspaper not available online, you should include as much information as possible. Specifically, that should include the full title of the article, author(s), name of newspaper, date of publication, city of publication if not part of the newspaper name, page number, section letter and so on. If you have most but not all of that information, give what you can. Many newspaper articles are unsigned, for example. <b style="color:#070">Cullen</b><sup style="color:#707">328 Let's discuss it 08:37, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

COI questions from a new editor
In the process of updating, for free, a page about a performer with whom I have worked with on occasion. "Gerrianne Raphael". Her page did not report most of her career accomplishments. I understand that while I am only citing details that appear elsewhere on the net (and will footnote the thing within an inch of it's life before I'm done), there is no doubt some unconscious level of curating going on. I would be happy to post a notice somewhere on the page that this page was created by a professional colleague, even use my name. Where and how do I do this?
Along those lines, I am posting her professional resume picture, which is all over the net, and is clearly in "public domain" in terms of use. I will get permission from the owner of the picture (the actress) if necessary - what form should that take?

Notch Filter Design: A Narrow Band Filter for Specific Noise Attenuation
Published on December 13, 2021 , Last modified on August 1, 2024
by Hommer Zhao
Notch Filter
Noise and interference are common when dealing with electrical devices because different circuits produce varying signal frequencies that clash. Such issues are prevalent in communication devices, which are easily affected by power lines. If you are experiencing such issues, there is a way to filter out the unwanted frequencies using a notch filter design. There are different types of notch filters, and each has a unique circuit design that requires specific components to build.
In this article, we will look at them in detail to enable you to build the correct circuit.
What Is A Notch Filter?
Also known as a band rejection filter or band-stop filter, a notch filter is a device that creates a high level of attenuation on a narrow notch. It rejects this band of frequencies but allows all others below or above the blocked range to transmit.

The device comes in handy to filter out particular noises, such as the 60Hz hum coming from an AC power source.
Notch Filter Characteristics
Notch filters have three attributes:
• Narrow bandwidth (stopband)
• Great attenuation depth
• High Q
To achieve high Q, you need an almost infinite attenuation depth and a high-gain operational amplifier in the circuit.
Notch Filter Types
Notch filter designs have three components. A low-pass filter attenuates the high frequencies, a high-pass filter blocks the low frequencies, and a summing amplifier combines the results.
However, there are different notch filter types, and each has a unique circuit design. They include:
Active Notch Filter
An active notch filter circuit diagram
The green part forms the low pass filter in this active filter, while the blue part forms the high pass filter. These get summed up by the op-amp (orange components).
Passive Notch Filter
Unlike an active notch filter, this type only has passive components. It lacks amplifiers, which form the active part of the circuit.
Passive notch filter circuit diagram showing the low and high pass filters in T configurations
The orange parts form the low pass filter section in the diagram, while the blue components form the high pass filter.
RLC Notch Filter
As the name suggests, an RLC notch filter is a passive type because the circuit only has a resistor (R), inductor (L), and capacitor (C).
An RLC notch filter
Butterworth Notch Filter
A Butterworth notch filter produces a response that is as flat as possible, making it reliable and highly accurate. Most medical equipment, such as ECGs, have the device.
4th order Butterworth low-pass filter
FM Notch Filter
FM notch filters help to reject strong FM signals that cause receiver saturation. Frequency modulation in the same band has increased, mainly due to localized audio broadcasts, so this device is crucial for reducing noise.
A VHF FM notch filter
The other types include optical, RF, and inverse notch filters. There may be more, but all have an active or passive notch filter as the underlying circuit. The only way to differentiate between the two is if the circuit design has an active component (amplifier circuit) or not.
Notch Filter Design Example
The basic design of a notch filter
As stated earlier, a notch filter has three main components: a low pass filter, a high pass filter, and an amplifier. Combined, the three attenuate a narrow and specific frequency range.

The most common notch filter topology is the basic twin-T notch filter design. It is a combination of two RC branches.
A basic twin-T notch filter circuit

The upper T configuration (in red) is the low pass filter, while the lower T (in green) is the high pass filter.
However, if you want to attain a narrower level of rejection with a high attenuation level, you need to introduce an operational amplifier.

The circuit still has one major problem. It increases the gain after the V attenuation in the response curve. Therefore, you need to introduce another operational amplifier to keep the circuit from altering the passband.
Two op-amp notch filter design
Two op-amp notch filter design
Design Example
Say we want to design two operational amplifiers with a 1kHz notch frequency and a 3dB bandwidth of 100Hz. Consider the value of the high-pass filter capacitors to be 0.1uF.
We can use the formula for getting the notch filter frequency, which is:
Therefore, we can design the active notch filter for a 20dB notch depth as follows:
A two op-amp notch filter for a 20dB notch depth

Design An RLC Type Notch Filter
Another example worth looking at is the RLC notch filter. Instead of having a twin-T design with six components, this one only has three: a resistor, inductor, and capacitor.
If the task is to design a circuit with 23 kHz and 25 kHz as the cut-off frequencies, here’s how to go about it.
An RLC notch filter for 23 kHz and 25 kHz cut-off frequencies
An RLC notch filter for 23 kHz and 25 kHz cut-off frequencies
Notch Filter Transfer Function
BW is the bandwidth.
WZ is the zero circular frequency (cut-off frequency), while WP is the pole circular frequency. WP determines the type/ characteristics of the filter, and there are three possibilities.
• If the pole circular frequency is higher than the zero circular frequency (WP>WZ), then it is a high pass notch filter
• If the pole circular frequency is lower than the zero circular frequency (WP<WZ), then it is a low pass notch filter
• However, if the two are equal, then you have a standard notch filter
Therefore, you can rewrite the formula of a standard notch filter as:
WC is the width of the rejected band, while W0 is the rejected frequency (central).
Notch Filter Applications
• Communication systems: There is a high probability of message signal interference by harmonic noises (especially by power lines), and notch filters help to remove this range of frequencies.
• Audio applications (Acoustic applications): Humming noises can distort or create sharp spikes in audio engineering devices like amplifiers and PA systems, but notch filters can eliminate these frequencies.
• Medical engineering: Power line interference can mess with EEG and ECG readings. Notch filters help to eliminate this powerline noise from the biomedical signals.
• Internet services: Internet transmission over telephone lines, such as DSL, is susceptible to unwanted interference, and the only way to deal with it is a notch filter as a line noise reducer.
• Digital signal and image processing
• Optical applications
Summary
Notch filters are handy devices in several applications, primarily because they can block interference caused by AC power sources.
If you want to build this device, the information above and the circuit diagrams are enough to guide you through the process.

FC Viktoria Köln
FC Viktoria Köln is a German association football club from the city of Cologne in North Rhine-Westphalia, that competes in the 3. Liga, the third tier of German football.
History
Founded in 1904 as FC Germania Kalk it is one of the oldest football clubs in the city. In 1909 Germania merged with FC Kalk to form SV Kalk 04 and in 1911 this club was, in turn, united with Mülheimer FC to create VfR Mülheim-Kalk 04. The club was renamed VfR Köln 04 in 1918 and, in 1926, won its first Western German football championship and entry to national championship play.
After the re-organization of German football in 1933 under the Third Reich into sixteen top flight divisions, VfR played in the Gauliga Mittelrhein taking titles there in 1935 and 1937 but then performed poorly at the national level. In 1941 The Gauliga Mittelrhein was split into the Gauliga Moselland and Gauliga Köln-Aachen, with VfR playing in the latter division. Two years later the club joined Mülheimer SV to play as the combined wartime side (Kriegsspielgemeinschaft) KSG VfR 04 Köln/Mülheimer SV 06. Mülheim had also played in the Gauliga Mittelrhein since 1933 claiming titles of its own in 1934 and 1940, and had similarly poor results at the national level. Play in the Gauliga Köln-Aachen was suspended in the 1944–45 season as Allied armies advanced into Germany at the end of World War II.
After the war VfR Köln resumed playing first division football in the Oberliga West, but lasted only a single season before being relegated. In 1949 the team merged with its wartime partner Mülheimer SV to become SC Rapid Köln 04 and played in the 2. Oberliga West (II) until falling to third-tier football after 1952. Rapid joined local rivals SC Preußen Dellbrück forming SC Viktoria 04 Köln in 1957. Of these sides, Preußen Dellbrück was most successful, advancing to the semi-finals of the national championships in 1950 before going out against Kickers Offenbach in a replay of their scoreless first match.
In 1963, the city selected Viktoria as its representative in the Fairs Cup, the forerunner of today's UEFA Cup, but the club was unable to capitalize on the opportunity. The team played as a second and third division side with generally unremarkable results until the 1994 merger with SC Brück that created SCB Preußen Köln, the new team being named after predecessor Preußen Dellbrück. The new club earned a second-place finish in their division in 2000, but quickly tumbled to the Oberliga Nordrhein (IV), even spending one season in fifth division Verbandsliga Mittelrhein. The pattern continued after the team was re-christened SCB Viktoria Köln in 2002.
On 22 June 2010, a new club called FC Viktoria Köln was founded which took over the youth teams of now insolvent SCB Viktoria Köln. Although it was expected that the new club can begin in the Landesliga, where SCB Viktoria had played at last, they were forced by the association to start in the lowest league, Kreisliga D. Nonetheless, on 24 February 2011 they took over FC Junkersdorf which became champion of the 2010–11 Mittelrheinliga and so FC Viktoria Köln could start in 2011–12 in the NRW-Liga.
A 2012 title in this league earned the club promotion to the Regionalliga West where it played until 2019 after being promoted to 3. Liga.

* Lets just say 92E becomes TD One-E, then Andres, and then a hurricane and then dissipates and has a decent amount of info with detailed discussions from the NHC, would it be ok if I started a sandbox? Leave Message ,Yellow Evan home, Sandbox
* No. If TD One-E forms and reaches tropical storm strength at June 17 18:00 UTC, it will be tied as the fifth-latest first tropical storm. If it forms reaches TS strength earlier, it will be the sixth-latest, and lif later it will be the fifth-latest. The current sixth, fifth, and fourth latest first tropical storms, Aletta (1988), Adrian (1999), and Aletta (1994), respectively, do not have articles, even though discussions are available for all of them. The main reason being that the fact that a system is the Nth latest first tropical storm does not an article make. For the same reasons, an article on TD One-E/Tropical Storm/Hurricane Andres (2009) does not need exist if it is just a generic, routine fishspinner. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 04:49, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
* What if it is enough for a GA? I can write articles as long as like Odile 08, only lasting 4 days, and besides, it might of caused rain in Mexico (probably), but looks like it is not going to become one. HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 05:39, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
* All tropical waves come from the coast of Africa, and hence must have crossed Mexico or Central America to to the Pacific. Hence, any EPac TC that formed from a tropical wave would have caused rain during its formative stages. This means that for almost all Pacific hurricanes, we are back at square one. As fir Odile, it was close to the coast of Mexico and caused rain there. This future system likely will not do that; it's well out to sea and heading west. Even if the article is good enough for GA status, rather then making a Good Article on a routine surfswirler, you can add that GA-quality writing, research, and sourcing and make a good section on it, thereby helping the season article become a good article. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 06:08, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
* MM keep in mind that Tropical Storm Erick (2007) is an FA and Hurricane Hernan (2008) is a GA and very long. Also, these days fishspinner get articles Leave Message ,Yellow Evan home, Sandbox
* Now it is causing an closer effect to Mexico and forecasted to move northwest, and might have minor effects on Baja California. If Douglas 08 have an article, this will, too (It looks similar). HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 09:09, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
* The only reason Douglas had an article was because people thought it was a great idea to split an article for every last storm, which we realized wasn't a good thing. We were left with several crappy articles on storms that didn't affect anyone. If there's no additional content available outside of the season article section, does it really need an article? As a consequence, the large number of better articles on the lackluster storms meant that we didn't see the lesser quality on the truly important storms. Tropical Storm Alma was decent from the beginning, since people we onboard for that unusual and impacting tropical cyclone. But now Hurricane Norbert (2008), the costliest hurricane from the season and the 2nd most viewed after Alma, is still as crappy as it was when it dissipated. So please, this year, show a little restraint in clicking "create this page". ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 14:05, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
* People have been bugging me about this on the IRC and JC was very rude. My quit message was I will not write an article for TD 1E for now. Leave Message ,Yellow Evan home, Sandbox
* Did it moved off of the African coast on May 30th? And could someone upload an cropped 250m version of this? The computer I am using now could not crop images. And an image for Linfa. Could someone really reply or upload the image?!!! And I am making a sandbox for it. HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 01:58, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Someone is working on the article now, so please do not publish anything yet. There isn't much info available, so there is no need for the article. C'mon guys, show some restraint. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 02:50, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Latest start date records
I created an excel spreadsheet showing the seasons since 1966 and the date each tropical cyclone became a tropical storm (ie it is the date each system became a tropical storm; depressions are not included). As it is now June 12, and no tropical storm has formed, only eight seasons have a later date for the first tropical storm. For the sake of interest and updating the record in the article, I have provided the following information:
These dates are in UTC, BTW.
Hence, if Andres is named on June 19, this will be tied with the 1994 season for the fourth latest first tropical storm (ignoring the depression stage and the hour of strengthening). Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 23:15, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Does this storm broke the record of being the earliest E. Pacific storm to have impact/ (make landfall?) to Mexico? I never heard a June storm to effect Mexico (make landfall?) to Mexican coast. HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 04:50, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
* In 1951, Tropical Storm 1 made landfall in Mexico on May 20. That was the earliest landfall in Mexico I could find. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 05:13, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
* Lately, storms take an west track in June and July and most storm make landfall in Mexico during Late September and October, so the event is quite rare. (Due to upper level wind shear which northerlies into the deep tropics. HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 05:18, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

* We need to be much better at remembering WP:OWN in these parts of the Wiki... that said, wouldn't it be a good idea to just write the sandboxes at, which would give us things such as WikiProject Tropical cyclones/Tropical Storm Andres (2009). We could all work on the articles there, and if we standardize on where we put them, we wouldn't need to have this discussion every χ days... Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 10:43, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

* I like the general idea of a project sandbox - but it DOES NOT work even when advertised well Jason Rees (talk) 15:20, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
* I'm afraid that is reflective of what has become of our project, unfortunately. For whatever reason, we tend not to collaborate well. We tried with Camille a few months ago, and only 3 or 4 of us contributed to the new sandbox article. The new sections of information have since been transferred to the main Camille article (via Hink), so it did make some difference concerning that article's quality. The last article I remember a number of the TC project members becoming involved with over a period of weeks was the series of tropical cyclone FACs, which was quite productive. The general meteorology project has a similar problem. Thegreatdr (talk) 15:53, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
* To Jason Rees, how does it not work? We haven't tried it much yet. If for every active storm from now on, we did the project sandbox, then people would get used to the idea of it, and not to mention we can link to it on the discussion pages. To DR, maybe the lack of personal sandboxes would force collaboration a little more, instead of the same five editors. After all, we get brand new editors by the dozen when an article is on ITN, FAC, or TFA, so a little advertising might do some good. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 18:15, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

What is the determiner for TC articles?
I'm still in the dark as to why certain TC's get articles, and others don't. Is it just the ones that impact land, or is there some other determiner in writing articles, because even though Carlos is in the open ocean, it still deserves an article (most hurricane strength systems, in current times, at least in the Atlantic and eastern and central Pacific deserve a medium sized, but well written article). Hurricanekiller1994 (talk) 21:29, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
* It's up to the whim of people within the project at any particular moment. While it should be done for systems which make landfall, some would like to have articles for every system, which is actually stated on the project mainpage...|the ol' overzealous masochist comment which was on our main page goals section through December 2007. As long as they improve the articles to GA, it really doesn't matter to me. I'm focused mainly on the met articles, with a secondary emphasis on season articles. Sometimes I'll save a random storm article from GAR, or improve one which is close to GA already, or improve an article concerning an old storm which has an importance to the tropical cyclone rainfall project. Creating new articles is not the end-all-be-all within wikipedia, even though it sometimes seems that way. Improving their quality to GA+ is the goal. The higher the article quality is, the more people tend to flock to it. Thegreatdr (talk) 21:43, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
* ^^ What he said. Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 01:04, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
* Well I could see an article for Carlos, I am pretty sure it is the smallest hurricane on record and if that is true then you have an assertion of notability as to why it should have an article. My advice, is if this is a record breaker then be bold and go for it!! - Marcusmax ( speak ) 14:02, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
* I'm already working on the article. I will publish it once the storm has dissipated since it isn't threatening land. As for the claimed record, it's not the smallest hurricane. I think it ranks as the third smallest TC on record, tied with Cyclone Tracy, and behind TS Polo '08 and TS Marco '08. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 14:07, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
* Not the smallest tropical cyclone, but it is the smallest "hurricane" in that case. Even if I just uploaded the IR to Commons while its at the current peak strength, and figure it could help in any future article. - Marcusmax ( speak ) 14:44, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
* That new image is very impressive, I actually think it's rapidly deepening, might see a Cat:3 soon. Hopefully it will maintain this structure when visible satellites can see it. As for being the smallest hurricane, I doubt we can be that specific, we have to include other basins so tropical cyclone of hurricane intensity, it doesn't really matter now, it's getting larger. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 14:47, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
* Well the new update should be coming anytime now, if it becomes a cat 3 then that would likely help it acheive an article. - Marcusmax ( speak ) 20:31, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

* Not sure whether Carlos is going through a eye replacement cycle or it is just fizzling out again, but if it doesn't reform an eye we might see another large drop in power. - Marcusmax ( speak ) 23:28, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
* On another note, we are going to have TD 5-E at 8 p.m. and Carlos' peak intensity is 90 knots and 972 mbar (from the best track) -- An ' ha ' mi rak 02:13, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
* Well if (when) the td forms lets try to get it up promptly, make sure no one attempts to create any article on it at first; and from there just wait and see like we are with Carlos. - Marcusmax ( speak ) 02:26, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
Summary error
In the season summary below the predictions box it says "on June 23 the NHC determined that TD 2 had intensified into Tropical storm Andres; this markes the second latest date the first named storm of a season developed since 1969 when TS Ava was named on July 1 of that year". It isn't the second latest since 1969; it's the latest since 1969. I think this should be changed. Does anyone else agree on this? <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 13:11, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Tropical Storm Lana (2009) article?
Since Lana is currently impacted the US, so I think it time for an article. Here is a radar image showing Lana. 50 mph winds are possible according to this. Hawaii is now under a Tropical Storm Warning. Leave Message, Yellow Evan home
* That's a radar echo on that image, it's not rain from Lana, the tropical storm warning is not for land it's for offshore areas and lastly the key word in the winds is possible. So basically, no article. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 02:46, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
* However, the BT in the top of this page seems not to be correct, but I didn't track it through the weekend. --Matthiasb (talk) 08:27, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
* The BT is correct - It just needs updating :). Jason Rees (talk) 16:16, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
However, Lana is quite likely to be the only central Pacific tropical cyclone this year, and is one of only four storms to form as depressions in the eastern Pacific, but be named in the central, and these two alone are fairly good reason for an article. I mean, some of you people wrote an article for 2008's Kika, and it was weaker than Lana, and didn't impact any land. In fact, Lana is the strongest central Pacific TC since 2006's Ioke, so yeah this another good fact about Lana that makes it fairly deserving of an article, if anyone disagrees, we can discuss it right here. Hurricanekiller1994 (talk) 16:04, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
* If you ask me, if the article comprehensively covers Lana, it should stay, otherwise it will be merged. -- An ' ha ' mi rak 16:06, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
* I wrote Kika before we had an implied policy on no longer making articles for storms that did not impact land. Since it has attained GA status, it's best not to go through the whole ordeal of getting it de-listed (same goes for the other articles in that situation). Cyclonebiskit (talk) 16:10, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
* Theres no point for an article on Lana, what would be in the article would only be an extended verson of the MH which we can cover quite satisfactorilly in the Season article. Jason Rees (talk) 16:16, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
Are you kidding? Felicia will likely pass 140W longitude (becoming number 2 for the CP), and El Nino events lead to most of the TCs the central Pacific basin ever witnesses. No, Lana will not be the only one this year by a long shot. Thegreatdr (talk) 18:40, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
Hurricane Felicia
Felicia is already a hurricane, and is expected to intensify to a Cat3 major hurricane sometime in the next few days. If Felicia reaches major hurricane status, then it definitely deserves an article. I mean, who wouldn't think that a major hurricane, the first of the season, doesn't deserve an article? Hurricanekiller1994 (talk) 21:59, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
* Lets see what happens but unless it makes landfall on Hawaii i would oppose an article. Jason Rees (talk) 22:02, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
* I have to object to this. We've already been over this. Unless the storm impacts land, it doesn't get an article, we have too many useless articles. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 22:03, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
* I'm fine with no article for Lana, but Felicia will likely pass close to Hawaii, and if it makes landfall, or impacts Hawaii in any way, it deserves an article, if not, it just deserves a fair, well written section on the season main. Hurricanekiller1994 (talk) 22:17, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
* Exactly - but lets wait and see what happens.Jason Rees (talk) 22:20, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Central Pacific disturbance
The CPHC is monitoring an area of disturbed weather southwest of Hawaii, and is expected to develop into a tropical depression tonight or early tomorrow, if so, this will become the first disturbance to originate from the Central Pacific this year. If it does, will it be called 1-C? Hurricanekiller1994 (talk) 22:25, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
* Of course. The first system to form within the central Pacific will have the cyclone code CP012009 -- グリフオーザー (talk) 22:37, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
* Yup, although they named a storm Lana, it was designated 6E Cyclonebiskit (talk) 22:40, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
* Yes, the EPac, CPac, and WPac have independent numbering. As a previous example, in 1994, Tropical Depression One-C formed after Tropical Depression Eight-E was named Li. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 22:58, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
* The JTWC has issued a TCFA on the disturbance and, even though I do know that JTWC data is unofficial, its apparently highly probable that the disturbance will become One-C sometime in the next 24 hours, and if it potentially reaches TS intensity, won't this be the first occurence of multiple named (two or more) storms in the Central Pacific since 2002? It had 2 hurricanes and one system that reached TS status but not hurricane status (Ele, Huko, and Alika respectivly). Hurricanekiller1994 (talk) 03:28, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
* One-C's formation makes this the first occasion since October 31, 2002 with two or more TC's active in the CPac simultaneously. If we get Maka, this will be the first season since 2002 to use multiple CPac names. Also, with the formation of Lala, this and last season are the first time since 1993-94 that consecutive seasons have used CPac names. But don't add abything about Maka to the article yet; One-C is still just a depression; let's not get ahead of ourselves. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 05:01, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
* That's El Nino for you. The lion's share of CPac storms form in El Nino years. CrazyC83 (talk) 12:54, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Nine-E
Just a hypothetical question, what if Nine-E's remnants regenerate, and reach TS strength, while in either the Eastern Pacific or Central Pacific, would it be named with a name from the list, or would it be called TS 9-E? Comments? Hurricanekiller1994 (talk) 15:00, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
* In the EPAC it would be called 9E and labbelled using the EPAC list. From memory if it redevelops it becomes TD 02C i think. Also whilst im here and its relevant per the Tropical Cyclone Operational Plans for the EPAC/WPAC. Basins crossers only retain their name if they cross at or above Tropical Depression Strength. Thus Maka will become Vamco if it reintensifies to Tropical Storm Strength. Jason Rees (talk) 15:08, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
* In 1986 and 1991 respectively, Georgette and Enrique both kept their names when they regenerated in the WPac after dissipating east of the dateline. Last year, Kika kept its name (even though it was only a depression in the WPac). Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 18:25, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

kexec – Boot into a New Kernel from the Currently Running Kernel
The kexec command is used in Linux to boot into a new kernel from the currently running kernel. It allows you to load and execute a new kernel image without rebooting the system. This is useful for testing new kernels or loading a kernel with different parameters without having to go through the entire boot process.
Overview
The kexec command requires root privileges to execute. To use kexec, you need to have a new kernel image available on your system. You can download a new kernel from the official Linux kernel website or from your distribution’s package manager.
Once you have a new kernel image, you can use the following command to load and execute it:
sudo kexec -l /path/to/new/kernel
sudo kexec -e
The first command loads the new kernel image into memory, and the second command executes it. Note that the -l option is used to specify the location of the new kernel image, and the -e option is used to execute it.
You can also pass additional parameters to the new kernel using the --append option. For example:
sudo kexec -l /path/to/new/kernel --append="root=/dev/sda1"
sudo kexec -e
This command loads the new kernel image and passes the root=/dev/sda1 parameter to it.
Options
The following table lists all available options for the kexec command:
Option Description
-f, --force Force the kernel to reboot even if it detects errors during the loading process.
-l, --load Load the new kernel image into memory.
-e, --exec Execute the new kernel image.
-p, --protocol Specify the protocol to use for loading the new kernel image.
-a, --append Pass additional parameters to the new kernel image.
-s, --soft Use a soft reboot instead of a hard reboot.
-H, --halt Halt the system instead of rebooting it.
-u, --unload Unload the currently loaded kernel image.
Troubleshooting Tips
• Make sure you have the necessary privileges to execute the kexec command. You need to be logged in as root or use the sudo command.
• If the new kernel image fails to load, try using the -f option to force a reboot.
• If the system fails to boot after executing the new kernel image, try passing different parameters using the --append option.
Notes
• The kexec command is not a replacement for a full system reboot. It should only be used for testing purposes or for loading a new kernel with different parameters.
• The kexec command may not work on all systems. It is recommended to test it on a non-production system before using it in a production environment. | ESSENTIALAI-STEM |
Talk:食
Marking senses as obsolete
Was it intentional to mark all senses of 食 as obsolete? From my knowledge of Cantonese, "to eat" at least is still in use —umbreon 126 08:27, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
* It's probably hard to split tags. The way I read it - obsolete in Mandarin, current in dialects but it's not too obvious, I agree. perhaps it makes sense to use "or":, which will give "(obsolete or Cantonese, Hakka, Min)". --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 08:57, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
* The obsolete template represents disuse in Modern Standard Chinese, so if it is accompanied by dialectal context tags, then that means "obsolete in Standard Chinese, but used in other dialects"; otherwise, it means "obsolete in all dialects". Wyang (talk) 03:59, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
Distinct etymologies in Min
I have added a new etymology (Etymology 3) for Min Nan chia̍h. I'm not familiar with Min Dong and Min Bei, and I don't know whether the vernacular readings of 食 in those topolects are cognate with Etymology 1 or Etymology 3 or have yet another origin. Freelance Intellectual (talk) 11:04, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
* I know you've cited those two sources for this split, but I'm wondering if there's actually any reasoning/evidence given in those sources to say conclusively that they are etymologically unrelated to etymology 1. This claim seems to go against most sources, so we should probably be careful about splitting the etymologies based on two sources only. The Min Bei colloquial form is more likely to be unrelated, but that will require more investigation to see how it fits. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 04:47, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
* These sources don't give an in-depth discussion for this word, but both sources are very careful in their treatment of etymology. I know that many sources state that "chia̍h" and "si̍t" are colloquial and literary readings of 食, but I haven't seen an argument based on regular sound changes -- if you know of one I would certainly be interested to see it! Based on rime books, 食 has the 職 rime in Old Chinese, but as far as I know, this rime has led to colloquial Hokkien terms that do not resemble "chia̍h", e.g. 職 "chit", 熄 "sit", 拭 "chhit" (taking these examples from Wiktionary! I'm really impressed by how much Hokkien is on here!) In contrast, other colloquial Hokkien words ending with "-iah" seem to derive from different Old Chinese rimes, e.g. 壁 "piah" (錫), 席 "sia̍h" (鐸), 石 "sia̍h" (鐸), 額 "gia̍h" (鐸). So there's certainly a challenge in connecting colloquial "chia̍h" to literary "si̍t".
* Speaking more generally, I would like to know how I should approach writing this kind of entry. While I've been active on Wikipedia for some time, I'm new to Wiktionary. Before splitting the etymologies, I read Etymology, which says etymologies should not be to verbose, and I read About_Chinese, which gives the entry on 干 as an example -- but the entry on 干 has no sources. I also looked up a few other characters with etymologically unrelated colloquial and literary readings in Hokkien and noticed some variation -- 人 has no references, while 肉 and 欲 have references, and 一 has a combined entry for both etymologies, which goes against Wiktionary best practice as I understand it. (I will certainly hold off editing the 一 entry until I'm clear on best practice!) I thought two sources would be sufficient, particularly since Yang Hsiu-fang is enough of an authority on Hokkien etymology that she was part of the Taiwanese Ministry of Education's committee to decide standard characters for Taiwanese Hokkien. In trying to look up other sources, I have just found that Norman (1991) also gives no character for "chia̍h". And to answer my own question about other Min dialects, Norman also gives Fú'ān and Fúzhōu terms cognate to "chia̍h", and gives a hand-written character (which I think is 饁 but I'm not 100% sure) for terms in Jiàn'ōu, Yǒng'ān, and Jiānglè dialects. Freelance Intellectual (talk) 16:09, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
* This word basically exhibits coastal Min (Min Dong, Min Nan and Puxian Min) vs. inland Min (Min Bei, Min Zhong, Shaojiang Min). There are certainly challenges if we focus on the rime, but 秋谷裕幸 (in 閩北區三縣市方言研究) seems to treat all the Min words as 食 but having anomalies in pronunciation. 中川裕三 (in 汉语方言解释地图) treats the Min forms as 食, and Bit-Chee Kwok (in Southern Mǐn: Comparative Phonology and Subgrouping) also treats the Min forms (at least the coastal Min forms) as 食. Unless there's a clear etymon we can trace to that is different from the ST etymon given, we could probably take a laxer approach to etymology, i.e. the Min forms probably still are related to 食 and ultimately derive from the same ST etymon. It might also be nice to point out certain phonological inconsistencies across dialects. This reminds me of 短, where the Min forms are generally considered to have a different etymology but OC reconstructions seem to allow for them to be under the same etymology.
* Now, as for how we should approach these kinds of entries, I'd say we should include in-text citations as much as possible. The etymologies at 干 and 人 were likely added before we had a good in-text citation system, which we have implemented relatively recently. The reason for 一 not being split is because it is easier to talk about their etymologies together - perhaps this shows why it's all the merrier for 食 not to have a split etymology. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 17:32, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
* Thanks for the references! I have basically the same question you asked me: is there any evidence or reasoning given in those sources to say they are etymologically related? The comparative method is fundamental to historical linguistics, and I certainly don't see why we should take a "laxer" approach. We could perhaps say that the etymology is disputed, but I would first like to see what these sources say. A coastal vs. inland split doesn't tell us whether the difference is due to phonetic changes or different lexical choices, and from what I've seen I would lean towards the latter. If I've understood you correctly, the first two sources you mention give *all* Min forms as related to 食 -- for Min Bei "iè" this seems like quite a leap phonetically (although I am not familiar with Min Bei, and maybe there are some relevant sound changes), and Norman proposes an alternative Old Chinese etymon. Freelance Intellectual (talk) 18:15, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
* 中川裕三 and Kwok don't have much details on their treatment of 食. 秋谷裕幸 gives a few points that we can work with:
* The initial shouldn't be a problem. For some words with the 船 or 禪 initial, they are read with a zero initial or in Min Bei, while it is in Min Nan and in Min Dong, e.g. 船: Jian'ou, Xiamen , Fuzhou.
* The tone shouldn't be a problem either. All of them have the expected tone from 全濁入.
* The rime is probably the area for contention, as you've pointed out. In Min Bei, Min Zhong and Shaojiang Min (as well as certain dialects of Hakka and Hunan/Guangxi Tuhua), it is irregularly read like 咸山攝開口三四等入聲, while in Min Nan and Min Dong, it is irregularly read like 梗攝開口三四等入聲. (That being said, I think these rimes are phonetically quite similar: 開口, 三四等, 入聲.)
* What should we make of this? — justin(r)leung { (t...) 20:59, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
* If this proposed etymology requires an irregular sound change, that's probably why other authors are sceptical. Given how character-based folk etymologies are so common, I'm generally hesitant to believe etymologies that follow popular character choices unless there's good evidence -- especially in cases like this, where 食 has a long pedigree in being used to write "chia̍h". So I guess it depends on how plausible it is to have an irregular sound change. Can you explain what 咸山 means -- is that two rimes that have merged? And does this source give reconstructed phonetic values?
* I haven't found any further sources beyond the three I mentioned so far, but inspired by Norman and Mei (1976), I decided to compare Kwok (2018)'s reconstructed proto-Min (thanks for the reference) to a reconstruction of proto-Austroasiatic. Kwok reconstructs "tsiaʔ8" for proto-Min-Nan, but is uncertain for proto-Min (endnote 11 of chapter 2), agreeing with Norman that the inland Min varieties use unrelated terms for "eat". It turns out that in Sidwell and Rao (2015)'s reconstruction, the proto-Austroasiatic word for "eat" is "ca:?" (where "c" is a palatal stop). Given that Min Nan has no palatal stops, "c" would have to be mapped to something, and "ts" or "tsi" would be a reasonable approximation. In fact, Proto-Mangian (the closest extant Austroasiatic group) is reconstructed by Hsiu (2016) to have "tsɔʔ", with an affricate. So this seems close. On the other hand, I know Sagart (2008) is sceptical of an Austroasiatic substrate for Min, so this etymology isn't without problems either -- but I thought it would be worth mentioning. The word for "eat" in proto-Kra-Dai and proto-Austronesian don't look plausible. It's really a shame the Minyue didn't leave written records. Freelance Intellectual (talk) 11:04, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
* Yes, 咸山攝 means 咸攝 and 山攝 merged. Unfortunately, I don't think 秋谷裕幸 gives any reconstructed phonetic values. We can have a comparison of the relevant rimes:
* {| class=wikitable
! Character ! Rime type ! Old Chinese (Baxter-Sagart) ! Middle Chinese (Baxter) ! Xiamen (Min Nan) ! Proto-Min Nan (Kwok) ! Fuzhou (Min Dong) ! Qilin Bayin (戚林八音) (闽东区古田方言研究) ! Jian'ou (Min Bei)
* 食 || 色 || 隻 || 接
* 曾攝開口三等入聲 || 曾攝開口三等入聲 || 梗攝開口三等入聲 || 咸攝開口三等入聲
* *mə-lək || *srək || *tek || *tsap

* sieʔ || saiʔ || tsieʔ || tsieʔ
* *siaʔ || *sek || *tsiaʔ || *tsiek
* iɛ || sɛ || tsia || tsiɛ
* }
* I know phonetic similarity is probably not a good argument. Another point to think about: would it be possible to argue that this common word probably has some irregularity because it comes from a different stratum? — justin(r)leung { (t...) 18:28, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
* If it comes from a different stratum, we would expect it to be regular with respect to that stratum. The standard account is that there are two "colloquial" strata, from the Han and Nanbeichao waves of immigration. In some cases we get both of these plus the literary Tang stratum -- for example, Klöter (2005) compares 席 and 石, where we can see a regular correspondence between the rimes in each stratum: -io̍h, -ia̍h, -e̍k (Han, Nanbeichao, and Tang, respectively). Looking at other etyma with the same reconstructed Old Chinese rime as 食, I can only find colloquial readings in -it, e.g. 翼, 拭, 織. So it might actually be that Min Nan "si̍t" derives from a "colloquial" stratum (Han or Nanbeichao), and is only "literary" in the sense that it contrasts with the more informal "chia̍h".
* After searching Schuessler (2007) for Proto-Min, I found that the entry for 嚼 *dzjak refers to Proto-Min *dzʰiak "to eat" (for Proto-Min, Schuessler follows Norman's reconstruction). This strikes me as plausible -- "eat" and "chew" are fairly close semantically, and phonetically there are other etyma with the same reconstructed Old Chinese rime and a colloquial Min Nan "iah" rime, such as 削 and 杓, which are both in the Taiwan MoE dictionary: 削, 杓 (where Wiktionary gives 杓 as an alternative form of 勺). I propose updating this entry to follow Schuessler's etymology. Freelance Intellectual (talk) 17:25, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
* Are you sure Proto-Min *dzʰiak would give tsiaʔ in Xiamen? I'm pretty sure *dzʰ becomes tsʰ in Xiamen. Is this a mistake in Schuessler? — justin(r)leung { (t...) 17:58, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
* I think you're right that it's a mistake. Schuessler cites Norman in the list of abbreviations (PMin), but not in the entry for 嚼, so I'm not sure which source is being used here. I can't find discussion of words meaning "eat" except in the paper I already discussed above, but there's no explicit reconstruction. An unaspirated *dz- would match Norman's account of how Proto-Min relates to the modern dialects (while *dzʰ- wouldn't match), and it would also match Schuessler's reconstruction -- e.g. compare 齊, where Schuessler also refers to Proto-Min, and there is no aspiration in Middle Chinese, Old Chinese, or Proto-Min.

One of the most ancient constellations in the night sky. This group of stars has been recognized as a hero for millennia. Once the story of Hercules become popular this constellation was given his name. Hercules was the son of Zeus and the mortal woman Alcmene. He exhibited enormous strength since childhood and was constantly being challenged by the wife of Zeus, Hera. Because of Hera, Hercules had become indentured to King Eurystheus and had to perform his famous Twelve Labors, most of which can be found in other constellations (Hydra, Cancer, Draco). The stars of the constellation are not very bright and Hercules is usually pictured upside-down in the sky. He is located to the east of Corona Borealis, the northern crown, and just north of Ophiuchus, the serpent-bearer. | FINEWEB-EDU |

Hello, I shall conduct this review. -- Matthew RD 19:20, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
This is how the article fairs against the GA criteria
* 1) Well written: See notes below
* 2) Factually accurate and verifiable: Passed
* 3) Broad in coverage: Plot a but too long, but it is confusing so I'll let you off the hook. Passed
* 4) Neutral: Passed
* 5) Stable: Passed, yes
* 6) Images: Passed? See notes below
OK everything checks out fine, apart from these few irks;
* The infobox image; the tags check out fine, but it looks of shoddy quality (as if someone took a picture of it from a camera in front of the TV screen, so I'm not sure if that would be the best image, or maybe move back to the first one and make it smaller)
* "is the twentieth episode and season finale of the first season", best to say just season one finale or first season finale.
* "was watched by more than 9.28 million viewers." Seems quite a specific number for more than (unless it was 9.2 or just nine), so say just 9.28.
* "As Bell as been communicating these past few months "strictly electronically"." I take it you mean Bell "has" been communicating.
* Isn't disk supposed to be spelled with a "c" instead?
Also, I must apologise that I currently have a shitty internet connection (works fine for a little while then halts suddenly for potentially hours at a time) so if I don’t respond to your responses quickly enough, then that would probably be the cause. -- Matthew RD 00:51, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
* Thank you for the review. I edited accordingly to most of your suggestions, and tried to upload an image with less of a blur (not sure if it's an improvement or not). Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 01:33, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
* There's_More_Than_One_of_Everything has no citations. It should really be cited before it gets passed on that. "but did not receive any nominations." is also not cited. --LauraHale (talk) 01:11, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
* Plots do not need citations, per WP:TVPLOT, which states;
* "Plot summaries do not normally require citations; the television show itself is the source, as the accuracy of the plot description can be verified by watching the episode in question." -- Matthew RD 01:22, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
* I added a citation for the lack of emmy nominations. Also, I was about to cite WP:TVPLOT myself. Thanks Matthew :) Ruby2010 talk 01:33, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
* I'll pass it, good job. Also, seems like my Internet's back. -- Matthew RD 01:41, 15 March 2011 (UTC) | WIKI |

ELF_GETDATA(3) Library Functions Manual ELF_GETDATA(3)
NAME
elf_getdata, elf_newdata, elf_rawdata - iterate through or allocate
section data
LIBRARY
ELF Access Library (libelf, -lelf)
SYNOPSIS
#include <libelf.h>
Elf_Data *
elf_getdata(Elf_Scn *scn, Elf_Data *data);
Elf_Data *
elf_newdata(Elf_Scn *scn);
Elf_Data *
elf_rawdata(Elf_Scn *scn, Elf_Data *data);
DESCRIPTION
These functions are used to access and manipulate data descriptors
associated with section descriptors. Data descriptors used by the ELF
library are described in elf(3).
Function elf_getdata() will return the next data descriptor associated
with section descriptor scn. The returned data descriptor will be setup
to contain translated data. Argument data may be NULL, in which case the
function returns the first data descriptor associated with section scn.
If argument data is not NULL, it must be a pointer to a data descriptor
associated with section descriptor scn, and function elf_getdata() will
return a pointer to the next data descriptor for the section, or NULL
when the end of the section's descriptor list is reached.
Function elf_newdata() will allocate a new data descriptor and append it
to the list of data descriptors associated with section descriptor scn.
The new data descriptor will be initialized as follows:
d_align Set to 1.
d_buf Initialized to NULL.
d_off Set to (off_t) -1. This field is under application
control if the ELF_F_LAYOUT flag was set on the ELF
descriptor.
d_size Set to zero.
d_type Initialized to ELF_T_BYTE.
d_version Set to the current working version of the library, as
set by elf_version(3).
The application must set these values as appropriate before calling
elf_update(3). Section scn must be associated with an ELF file opened
for writing. If the application has not requested full control of layout
by setting the ELF_F_LAYOUT flag on descriptor elf, then the data
referenced by the returned descriptor will be positioned after the
existing content of the section, honoring the file alignment specified in
member d_align. On successful completion of a call to elf_newdata(), the
ELF library will mark the section scn as "dirty".
Function elf_rawdata() is used to step through the data descriptors
associated with section scn. In contrast to function elf_getdata(), this
function returns untranslated data. If argument data is NULL, the first
data descriptor associated with section scn is returned. If argument
data is not NULL, is must be a data descriptor associated with section
scn, and function elf_rawdata() will return the next data descriptor in
the list, or NULL if no further descriptors are present. Function
elf_rawdata() always returns Elf_Data structures of type ELF_T_BYTE.
Special handling of zero-sized and SHT_NOBITS sections
For sections of type SHT_NOBITS, and for zero-sized sections, the
functions elf_getdata() and elf_rawdata() return a pointer to a valid
Elf_Data structure that has its d_buf member set to NULL and its d_size
member set to the size of the section.
If an application wishes to create a section of type SHT_NOBITS, it
should add a data buffer to the section using function elf_newdata(). It
should then set the d_buf and d_size members of the returned Elf_Data
structure to NULL and the desired size of the section respectively.
RETURN VALUES
These functions return a valid pointer to a data descriptor if
successful, or NULL if an error occurs.
ERRORS
These functions may fail with the following errors:
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] Either of the arguments scn or data was NULL.
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] The data descriptor referenced by argument data is not
associated with section descriptor scn.
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] The section denoted by argument scn had no data
associated with it.
[ELF_E_DATA] Retrieval of data from the underlying object failed.
[ELF_E_RESOURCE] An out of memory condition was detected.
[ELF_E_SECTION] Section scn had type SHT_NULL.
[ELF_E_SECTION] The type of the section scn was not recognized by the
library.
[ELF_E_SECTION] The size of the section scn is not a multiple of the
file size for its section type.
[ELF_E_SECTION] The file offset for section scn is incorrect.
[ELF_E_UNIMPL] The section type associated with section scn is not
supported.
[ELF_E_VERSION] Section scn was associated with an ELF object with an
unsupported version.

LED Lights Advocate The Construction Of Conservation
Sound and light control switch for residential corridor, corridor and other places need to automatically lighting, its function is: daytime light control light does not shine, the evening light and dark control by the sound open, light, the delay for some time, automatically shut down. It is convenient and practical,LED Lights easy to install, energy saving significantly. The following is the author installed in the corridor in the sound and light control the actual mapping of the circuit.
Circuit structure: sound and light control switch circuit consists of four parts, the power supply circuit composed of D2 ~ D5 full-bridge rectifier circuit, bulb H, R6, R7, C3 composition, control switch circuit by R3, light resistance RG, integrated circuit IC, One-way thyristor SCR and other components, voice amplifier circuit by the electret microphone MIC, C1, transistor T1 and other components, the control circuit by D1, R4, C2 and other components.
Working principle: During the day when the light to the light resistance RG, the resistance is small, making the integrated circuit IC 1,2 feet input low, 11 feet output low, SCR SCR cut off, even if the sound to MIC The electric signal is generated and the bulb is not lit. Night light dimmed, the light resistance RG resistance becomes larger, IC 1,2 feet input voltage increases, but still not reach the IC level, only when there is sound, the voice signal to T1 collector into a high Potential, IC 1, 2 feet input high 4 feet into a high level, D1 conduction and charge to C2, when charging to IC open voltage, 11 feet output high, SCR SCR conduction,LED Lights The lamp is bright. After the sound disappears, the IC's 1,2-pin input level is lower than the opening level. The 4-pin becomes low, D1 is cut off, but the charged C2 voltage does not change and maintains the 11-pin output high SCR SCR conduction, the bulb is still lit. With the C2 discharge to the voltage below the IC turn-on voltage, 11-pin output low, one-way thyristor SCR cut off, the lamp goes out.
Acousto-optic control switch circuit is the city full-bridge rectifier, with one-way thyristor control, regardless of day, or night in the one-way thyristor off state, the circuit will have a small current through the series in the rectifier Circuit before the bulb H, the current is not enough to light incandescent,LED Lights if you use a low voltage small current LED lights, when the tiny current into the LED lights, will be issued a faint shimmer, day and night are very obvious The This is why this circuit can not use LED lights.
From the above circuit we can see that when the unidirectional SCR SCR is off, it is no current flowing through it. If the rectifier circuit before the removal of the bulb H, and one-way SCR SCR connected together, one-way thyristor conduction when the bulb H has a current through the normal light, one-way thyristor off, the bulb H no Current, no light. Completely solve the LED lights can not use the problem. We according to the above method on the corridor sound and light control switch circuit has been improved,LED Lights the light bulb H from 15W incandescent, to 3W LED lights, not only increase the brightness, but also save the power. Such acousto-optic switch in the market sales of large applications, although the circuit is different, the components used are not the same, but the working principle is roughly the same. According to this method of transformation, the incandescent switch to LED lights, in promoting the construction of a conservation-oriented society today, has a positive meaning. | ESSENTIALAI-STEM |
Smila
Smila (Сміла, ) is a city located on Dnieper Upland near the Tyasmyn River, in Cherkasy Raion, Cherkasy Oblast of Ukraine. The Tiasmyn River, a tributary of the Dnieper River, flows through the city. In January 2022, the estimated population was 65 675, a 1.2% decrease from 2021.
Climate
The climate in Smila is moderately continental. Winters are cold with frequent snow. Summers are warm and can be hot in July, with little rain. Periods of temperatures higher than +10 last up to 170 days. The average annual precipitation is 450–520 mm.
Population
In 1989 the population of Smila was 77,500.
In January 2022, the estimated population was 65,675, a 1.2% decrease from 2021.
Language
Distribution of the population by native language according to the 2001 census:
History
Smila arose from an early Cossack settlement founded in the late 16th century. It later came under Polish rule.
In 1881, 1883, and 1904 there were pogroms in Smila (Smela), during which several Jews lost their lives and much Jewish property was looted or destroyed. Jews had settled in Smila since the 18th century and at the turn of the 20th century they made up over half the population and owned most of the shops. Only a handful of Jews remain in Smila today.
The construction of the Fastiv-Znamianka railway line spurred industrial growth in Smila- in 1910, the town had 23 factories and a population of 29 000.
During the Second World War, the Wehrmacht deployed Stalag 345 near Smila to hold Soviet prisoners of war. The camp was kept near Smila from early 1941 until December 1943, when the camp was moved to Zagreb.
In 1957, a machine repairs factory established in 1930 was repurposed to produce new machinery. The plant produced machines for food and transportation industries, and in 1972 it employed over a thousand workers.
Until 18 July 2020, Smila was designated as a city of oblast significance and served as the administrative center of Smila Raion though it did not belong to the raion. The settlements of Ploske and Irdynivka were subordinated to Smila city council. As part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Cherkasy Oblast to four, the city was merged into Cherkasy Raion.
During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Russian air strikes started a large fire within the city in October, 2022. Air raid sirens sounded in the city as early as March, 2022. A nearby Ukrainian fuel depot containing 100,000 tonnes of fuel was blown up the next day.
Economy
The economic emphasis is on mechanical engineering, and the food industry is also important. However, the town's population has generally declined since the 1980s.
Smila is the transport hub for the surrounding region. Smila is where the Kyiv–Dnipro and Odesa–Russia rail routes cross, making Smila one of the most important railway junctions in Ukraine. The large station at the junction is named after Ukraine's national poet and artist, Taras Shevchenko.

Acinar and conductive ventilation heterogeneity in severe CF lung disease: back to the model.
Onderzoeksoutput: Articlepeer review
37 Citaten (Scopus)
Samenvatting
Severe convective ventilation heterogeneity occurring in CF lung disease requires a modified method to determine acinar and conductive components of ventilation heterogeneity from normalized phase III slope (Sn) curves. Modified Sacin* and Scond* (as opposed to standard Sacin and Scond) are proposed and interpreted on the basis of 2 conceptual mechanisms: (a) flow asynchrony between two convection-dependent units with a different specific ventilation, but with an identical acinus inside each unit (generating an identical diffusion-convection-dependent portion of Sn); (b) different specific ventilation (without any flow asynchrony) between two convection-dependent units with the worst ventilated unit containing an abnormal acinus generating the greatest diffusion-convection-dependent portion of Sn. In CF patients with an abnormal lung clearance index (LCI), Scond* (but not Scond) and Sacin* were significant contributors to LCI (beta(Scond*)=0.70; beta(Sacin*)=0.49; P <0.001 for both). Mechanism (a) can entirely account for experimental Scond* values, while mechanism (b) implies that experimental Sacin* values are likely dominated by peripheral ventilation heterogeneity in the best ventilated portions of the lung.

"Why did the Crocodile wait to have them wrenched out?" said Sylvie.
"It had to wait," said Bruno.
I ventured on another question. "But what became of the Man who said 'You may wait here till I come back'?"
"He didn't say 'Oo may,'" Bruno explained. "He said, 'Oo will.' Just like Sylvie says to me 'Oo will do oor lessons till twelve o'clock.' Oh, I wiss," he added with a little sigh, "I wiss Sylvie would say 'Oo may do oor lessons'!"

* This blog is addresses the process(s) in green
In the third installment of this blog series and the second in the coding phase, I’m diving back into the process of storing the log (event) data associated with the original email. This step will give us the information around the email injection, delivery and behavioral actions by the email recipient(s). While this blog is similar to the blog I wrote recently on storing all event data for an email, there is enough of a twist in order to support the archiving of the email body that I decided to keep the two blogs separate. This blog will also offer up some sample code for storing the data into a MySQL table. (Please refer to the following Github repository)
When an email is created, SparkPost logs each step of the email and makes the data available to you for storage via API or Webhook technologies. Currently, there are 14 different events that may happen to an email. Here is a list of the current events:
Bounce Click Delay
Delivery Generation Failure Generation Rejection
Initial Open Injection Link Unsubscribe
List Unsubscribe Open Out of Band
Policy Rejection Spam Complaint
* Follow this link for an up to date reference guide for a description of each event along with the data that is shared for each event.
Each log event that corresponds to our archiving project will have a special tag named uid within the metadata block. As described in the previous two blogs, the uid is an application generated field which is generated by your email injection systems during the email send process and placed into the X-MSYS-API header and the email body via a hidden html field. The uid field in the email body will be the only id that survives through all emails and logging events and thus is needed to pull everything together (remember that the inbound event data does not have the UID metadata, that is why we must hide the id in the email body). But all of the event log data in this step will have the UID entry that we need.
"raw_rcpt_to": "austein@hotmail.com",
"rcpt_meta": {
"UID": "0093983927113301"
},
"rcpt_tags": [],
"rcpt_to": "austein@hotmail.com",
"rcpt_type": "archive",
"recv_method": "esmtp",
SparkPost webhooks have the ability to allow the user to pick which events they want to be delivered to their endpoint (collector), but they don’t have the ability to filter specific events given specific data. For example, what if you sent welcome emails to your new customers and you only want open events with the subject line of ‘Welcome’ sent to a specific endpoint? Nope, can’t do that. You can filter on the click event, but not on given data within the subject field. That means that our endpoint will get all events of a given type (open, click, bounces, etc) and we need to filter out the data that has nothing to do with our archive process. To filter out the noise, we will search each event for the UID field within the metadata block. If the event has the UID field, then we care about that data; otherwise, we skip that data event (that also means, that the field name that you use for the UID needs to be unique to this project).
* Note: SparkPost does have the ability to filter events for subaccounts. To simplify the storing code, you could send all emails that need to be archived through a specific subaccount. That would allow SparkPost to filter out the events for just that subaccount and only send those events to your collector. It won’t save you a lot of code, but this is an option.
In this phase of the code, I have an endpoint that captures and stores all events from SparkPost into a directory. That is all the work the endpoint does. This follows the best practice of doing as little work as possible within the endpoint, so it can keep up with how fast SparkPost may be delivering data to that endpoint (this is the retrieveWebhook.php code). Being honest, this is NOT the approach I did with the first phase of the project when I stored the archive body. I do plan on going back to fix that at a later date.
The next step will be for a cron job or group of cron jobs that will read the directory of files and start processing them (this is the processOutboundWebHooks.php code).
In order to support high volume sending, I expect that this code may have multiple instances running in parallel. So I have the code read the list of files within a directory and try to lock the file it wants to process. If the lock process works, it will proceed; if the lock process doesn’t work, then it’s assumed that another process is working on that file and skips that file and go onto the next one in the list. Once your code has a file, we need to turn the data into an array and start to process each event separately. But remember, we only want the ones with the uid field; that tells use that this data belongs to the archive process and we may want to store that data. In my code, I loop through each event pulling out specific fields that I know I want to store.
Also for filtering purposes, there is an important key/value pair that I’m paying special attention to, it’s the rcpt_type key/value pair. When an email is sent out using either the cc, bcc or the archive feature, each event will have a corresponding rcpt_type of either ‘cc’, ‘bcc’ or ‘archive’. My design allows for the email administrator to decide if they want to keep or filter those out by placing the appropriate values in the config file.
The PHP code to decide on if this event should be stored or not looks like this in my project:
if ($uid)
{
switch (true)
{
case ($rcpt_type == "original" | $rcpt_type == "archive"):
$store = true;
break;
case ($rcpt_type == "cc" && $logCC):
$store = true;
break;
case ($rcpt_type == "bcc" && $logBCC):
$store = true;
break;
}
}
By setting the $store flag to true; the rest of the program will store the corresponding data for that event.
So, in short, we have gone through the following steps:
1. The collector gets the data from SparkPost and places into a directory (retrieveWebhook.php)
2. Another process(s) will read the directory of files saved by the collector and try to lock the file from other processes. If successful, it will continue with that file. If not, it will continue down its list of files until it runs out or finds a file that needs processing. (processOutboundWebHooks.php*)
3. Since the file may have many events; we create an array of each event.
4. Looping through each event, we pull data we are interested in. the rcpt_type and uid are necessary to decide if we care about this event.
5. If we decide to store this event; we proceed with saving the data to our SQL table.
*This is a truly bad name, but I’m trying to describe the process that is storing the webhooks data coming from SparkPost outbound versus the archive inbound process
In this project, some of the more significant fields that I decided to use for indexing are: campaign_id, subject, timestamp, template_id and of course the rcpt_to field which holds the target email address.
This leaves me with a table with the following fields:
• Connector Id
• Rcpt To
• Campaign Id
• Subject
• Timestamp
• Template Id
• Raw (a copy of the full data event)
I’m not going to assume that these are the only fields or the best fields for your implementation, but they are what I’m using for this sample project. The code to store our fields in SQL and a text file log is similar to the one in phase 1:
// Create connection
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password);
// Check connection
if (!$conn)
{
if ($loggingFlag) $archive_output = sprintf("\n\n>>>>>MySQL connection failed
connecting to MYSQL to log S3 entry:%-200s\nTo: %-50s\n From: %-50s\n Subject: %-200s\n
InjectionTime: %-42s\n UID: %-38s\n Event Type: %-38s\n ArchiveFileName: %s>>>>>",
$conn->error, $rcpt_to, $friendly_from, $subject, $injection_time, $uid, $event_type, $currentFile);
$deleteFile = false;
}
else
{
$sql = "INSERT INTO austein_archiver.events (campaign_id, friendly_from,
injection_time, rcpt_to, rcpt_type, subject, UID, event_type, raw) VALUES ('" . $campaign_id . "',
'" . $friendly_from . "', '" . $injection_time . "', '" . $rcpt_to . "', '" . $rcpt_type . "', '" . $subject . "
', '" . $uid . "', '" . $event_type . "', '" . $raw . "')";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE)
{
if ($loggingFlag) $archive_output = sprintf("\n\n>>>>>To: %-50s\n From:
%-50s\n Subject: %-200s\n InjectionTime: %-38s\n UID: %-38s\n Event Type: %-38s\n
ArchiveFileName: %s>>>>>", $rcpt_to, $friendly_from, $subject, $injection_time, $uid, $event_type,
$currentFile);
}
else
{
if ($loggingFlag) $archive_output = sprintf("\n\n>>>>>MySQL insert
failure to MYSQL Event Table:%-200s\nTo: %-50s\n From: %-50s\n Subject: %-200s\n
InjectionTime: %-38s\n UID: %-38s\n Event Type: %-38s\n ArchiveFileName: %s>>>>>",
$conn->error, $rcpt_to, $friendly_from, $subject, $injection_time, $uid, $event_type,
$currentFile);
$deleteFile = false;
}
mysqli_close($conn);
}
file_put_contents("eventLog.txt", $archive_output, LOCK_EX | FILE_APPEND);
Without dragging this on, that is all we need to review for this portion of the code. As you can see, most of the work was done in the previous steps so all we have to do is retrieve the data, check to make sure it’s data we care about, then log it.
The next code drop will have a sample viewer with something similar to an inbox. Until then, it’s up to you to come up with some ways to view the data. If you have something to share, I’m sure everyone will be happy to see your work.
Happy Sending.

User:DanTD/Sandbox/U.S. Route 27 Alternate (Florida)
U.S. Highway 27 Alternate is a signed north–south but primarily east–west route running between Perry and Williston, and is co-signed with US 19/98 between Perry and Chiefland. As part of the US 19/98/ALT 27 concurrency, it is mostly signed secretly as State Road 55. East of Chiefland, the road secretly runs along the west end of State Road 500. The entire length of the route is 94 mi.
It is one of the primary routes between northwest and central Florida, having been recently been four-laned along its entire route. With a signed speed limit of 65 mi/h, this gives it more capacity than the mostly-two-lane "regular" US 27.

Former Alternate US 27
Three other Alternate U.S. Route 27's also used to exist in Florida. One around Lake Weir, from Belleview to Lady Lake was deleted in 1980. This was co-signed with Alternate U.S. Route 441 and hidden Florida State Road 25. Another in Polk County from Haines City to Sunray Deli Estates which was deleted in 1998, despite the fact that road maps and atlases still continue to show it. And a third from Avon Park to Sebring Southgate that was deleted in 1979. Both of them were replaced by formerly hidden Florida State Road 17. | WIKI |

Mord Em'ly/Chapter 9
five-shilling piece which Mord Em'ly had received from the princesses for swift honesty was shown to nobody but Ronicker. The coin had a fine, substantial look about it, as though it were capable of almost anything, and Mord Em'ly, having exhibited it to her friend, returned it to her bodice. The two had no opportunity of considering the question further until late at night, when the other girls in the room were asleep; even then their conversation had to be carried on in the quietest of whispers. Through a rent in the blind the moon sent a light which illuminated one or two of the many texts which crowded the walls of the room.
"You'll come too, Ronicker, won't you?"
"No!"
"Well, but I thought—" "Whatever you thought," whispered Ronicker, "I ain't coming this journey. Five bob wouldn't pay the expenses of two; and, besides, you'll want a shilling or two when you get there."
"Shall you stay on, then?"
"I shall wait till I get another shop, and I shall bolt off from there. They can't touch me then."
"I'd a jolly sight rather not leave you be'ind, Ronicker."
"You'll be a jolly sight better off alone. When shall you make a start?"
"To-morrer!" said Mord Em'ly.
"Then, you get off to by-bye now," advised Ronicker. "Likely as not, you may not 'ave a comfortable bed for a night or two. Get all the sleep you can."
With every desire to take Ronicker's advice, Mord Em'ly found herself unable to close her eyes that night. It seemed to her that she was commencing to make history—history of an adventurous and exciting character; necessary, therefore, that all of her wits should be kept easy of access. Mord Em'ly watched the dawn creep into the room as though it were fearful of awakening sleepers too early; she looked several times to see if her five shilling piece were still quite secure under her pillow. She took care in dressing to hide it in safety; Ronicker and she exchanged a solemn wink when they parted after breakfast. Later, whilst Mord Em'ly was at work in the dressmaking-room, Ronicker ran across the green from the laundry, her white cap slipping from her head, and pressed a piece of notepaper in her hand, bearing the words, "Gode Luck!" which Mord Emly correctly assumed to be intended as an encouragement,
"Mord Em'ly! put that cape down."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Can I trust you to run out and get something in the village?"
"Yes, 'am."
"I want a birthday card to send to a niece of mine, and it must have an angel on it, because it looks better, coming from me. Besides, she's fond of 'em."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Here's sixpence, and if you can get one that looks good enough for fourpence, and it's got a good angel, by all means—" Careful instruction from the dressmaking teacher, and urgent commands not to be gone more than five minutes. Mord Em'ly, glancing around the work-room before she went out at the door, caught the eyes of one or two of the girls seated at the four wooden tables, with their work in front of them. There may have been something of defiance in Mord Em'ly's look, for two of the girls furtively made faces at her as she went out; not so furtively, though, as to escape the notice of the mistress, by whom, to Mord Em'ly's content, they were sharply reprimanded.
"I'm going up to the stationer's, too," remarked Mrs. Batson, coming out of Pleasant Cottage in a crape bonnet, and fully dressed for public promenade. "We'll walk along together, Mord Em'ly."
It would have been disastrous to have hinted to Mrs. Batson that her presence was not desired; Mord Em'ly could only hope that she would be spared companionship when the purchases at the stationer's had been completed. It seemed, however, that Mrs. Batson's elaborate preparations for a lengthened outing were but a ruse to enable her to catch two of her charges, as she expressed it, "on the hop," and whilst Mord Em'ly selected a card with the most attractive angel, Mrs. Batson mentioned that she should return to the Home at once.
"Boffled!" murmured Mord Em'ly, under her breath.
Nevertheless, the little woman made the last strategic effort. On their return to the iron gates, she affected to remember, with great self-reproach, that she had left twopence change on the stationer's counter.
"You are a silly thing," said Mrs. Batson severely. "Anybody'd think you did it a purpose. I 'ope you don't think I'm going to tripse all the way back with you?"
"I ain't afraid to go alone," said Mord Em'ly. "P'r'aps you don't mind leaving this for me at the dressmaking room and mentioning that I've gone back."
Mrs. Batson snatched at the envelope.
"Give it 'ere," she said crossly. "You gels are more trouble than you are worth. Get along with you, do, and don't take a twelvemonth to get there and back."
Mord Em'ly, to show her contrition, ran quickly off until she reached the large house where the two stone Crusaders were on guard. There she had noticed just now a small round fur hat resting near a clump of stones, left apparently by some lady tramp to whom an impression had suddenly occurred that the shape was no longer fashionable. This Mord Em'ly took, and when she had run again for ten minutes, she rested at a milestone, and, taking off her own black straw hat, effected an exchange. The black straw hat was, she felt, a screaming informer, telling everybody that she had escaped from the Home, and she felt relieved to see it sail away on the leisurely waters of the canal. The small fur hat she dusted, and brightened it up with a bunch of primroses; she arranged her cloak differently, and felt to see that the five-shilling piece was safe.
"Thus disguised," said Mord Em'ly, quoting from a melodrama that she had once seen at the Elephant and Castle Theatre, "all obstacles to my desprit object are set at nort."
She was sufficiently acute not to go from the nearest station, but to reach the next meant a run and walk of five miles. She knew that, as yet, nobody was attempting to pursue her, but she made up her mind to imagine that everybody in the Home was already out; that the alarm had been sounded, and that twenty-five bloodhounds strained at the leathern cords which held them in their desire to reach her. One or two country lads, driving slow, thoughtful horses, flicked at her with their whips as she flew by, and told her, encouragingly, that she'd miss her young man if she didn't hurry. She pretended that she could hear the hoarse breathing of the dogs, and forced herself to increase her speed. As she neared the station she stopped to make quite sure that she was not being pursued (having, in fact, somewhat over-persuaded herself on this point), to dust boots and to regain breath, in order that there might be nothing in her manner to excite suspicion. Unnoticed by her, a puff of white smoke on the railway came nearer; a short train glided up to the station and glided off again before she observed it. She ran up the inclined roadway to the station, and rapped impatiently at the trap-door labelled Pay Here.The trap-door was thrown up, and a boy's face filled the space.
"’Ullo there!" said the boy.
"What time's the next train to London?" asked Mord Em'ly, panting.
"Two-firty-three!" said the boy shortly.
"But that's over two hours to wait. Isn't there one before that?"
"It's a peculiar thing 'bout this line," said the boy, in the slow, appreciative way of one to whom opportunities for conversation came rarely, "that we never 'ave no train before the next. Did you fink about orderin' a special?"
"Whatever shall I do?" said Mord Em'ly, bewildered. "Why, in two hours they—"
She stopped.
"Tell you what," said the office-boy; "I've got a capital idea."
"What's that?"
"Sit down and wait," he said, and slammed the trap-door.
Mord Em'ly read all the advertisements, and smelt all the flowers on the narrow platform, and inspected the "Rules and Regulations" (these made her tremble, because it seemed that there was little you could do to a railway company without being instantly liable to a fine not exceeding forty shillings and costs). She was the only passenger in the station, and the staff appeared to consist of the boy who peeped over the blinds of his office now and again with a menacing air, to see whether bye-laws were being broken. Once, when she rattled a dreary, empty automatic machine, he jumped up, and shouted, "’Ands off there, can't you!" with such volume that the little station echoed it, and quite a dozen people seemed to be warning Mord Em'ly. An hour went by. Meal-time at the Home brought with it a feeling of hunger. "Young man!" called Mord Em'ly.
"Now begin asting questions again," said the office-boy gloomily. "You passengers are enough to make a chap apply for his superannuation."
"Can I get anything to eat 'ere, please? I can pay for it."
"You want a tayble d'hôte dinner, I spose," remarked the office-boy satirically. "Soup, fish, ontrees, and so forf."
"I want about three penn'orth of something."
"We don't make free penn'orths," he said, "and we don't make noffing. You won't get anyfing to eat 'ere; you can make yourself jolly well certain about that."
A smell of something warm and eatable came through the open trap-door. Mord Em'ly sighed.
"Any other questions?"
"No," said Mord Em'ly dolefully.
"Don't you mind asting 'em," he said gruffly. "It's what I'm paid for, to be 'ere, and be badgered out of me life. What are you going to London for?"
"To get some work to do."
"Where's your box?"
"Been sent on," said Mord Em'ly boldly. "Been sent on by goods train."
"You'll be a wonderful 'elp to London, you will," said the office-boy. "S'pose everyfing's at a standstill till you get there."
"Daresay I shall brighten the place up a bit."
"Never been in London before, I lay. I've been up twice this year."
"Why, you silly kid," said Mord Em'ly, with indignation, "Wasn't I born there?"
The office-boy's contempt for the small passenger vanished on hearing this. His manner changed so much that he offered Mord Em'ly one-half of a huge meat pasty that was warming itself near the stove, and, filling a tumbler from the filter in the corner of the outer office, recommended her to go into the tiny waiting-room.
"You feed your face in there," said the office boy, "whilst I get on with my abstract. Talking to you isn't performing duties what the company pays me for."
Mord Em'ly was finishing the last crumbs of the office-boy's meat pasty when a clatter of wheels made her start. There was but half an hour now to wait for the train, and her first sensation of nervousness had worn off. Two familiar voices came to her ears as the outer office opened; she crept swiftly to the door of the tiny waiting-room, and turned the key. She listened, her heart beating violently, her face white with fear. The sonorous voice of the chaplain applied for the stationmaster.
"You can't see him."
"Why can't I see him, boy?"
"You can't see him" (with some annoyance at being called boy), "because he ain't 'ere."
"Perhaps," said the voice of the new secretary, "perhaps this lad can tell us. Has a girl, a short girl, in a blue serge dress, booked for London this morning?"
"She ain't," said the office-boy.
"Or for anywhere?"
"No!"
"Have you been on duty since eleven?"
"I've been on duty since eight a.m., and I don't get off duty till eight p.m., and a pretty tough job it is, what with the time, and what with the S.M. being laid up, and me—"
"Tell me, boy! Is there such a girl on the station now?" asked the chaplain.
Mord Em'ly, in the tiny waiting-room, held her breath. She saw hope in the fact that the young official was still being called boy.
"Since you ast the question," said the office-boy oracularly, "I beg to inform you that there ain't."
"I think we will wait and see the next train off, Miss Cresswell."
"Very well," said the new secretary.
"You can't go on the platform wifout a ticket," said the office-boy warningly.
"We don't wish to go on the platform, my boy. It will be sufficient for our purpose to remain here."
"I can't prevent that," said the office-boy regretfully.
"You see," said the new secretary to the chaplain, "there are only two possible stations, so that we are sure to intercept her."
"Providing she is going back to town."
"They always go back to town."
"Thought she seemed rather a clear-headed, sensible girl," said the chaplain. "Almost the last one that I should have suspected."
"It is just those," replied the new secretary, in a cryptic way, "that one ought to suspect. The odd thing, to my mind, is that, being so near the time of her departure, she should have decided to run off."
"Can it be that these girls don't like the idea of domestic service?" suggested the chaplain.
"They must be made to like it," said the new secretary definitely.
The chaplain did not appear to see his way to continuing the conversation on these lines, and suggested that the new secretary should rest in the waiting-room, whilst he kept a look-out.
"Boy!" he cried, "Why is this door locked?"
"’Cause somebody's locked it, I spose."
"Have you the key of this waiting-room door?"
"I have not," replied the office-boy, in a precise, Ollendorffian manner, "the key of that waiting room door."
Mord Em'ly, with her hand at her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound, heard presently a tap on the window that looked out on the platform. The office-boy was there, beckoning to her. Acting upon his whispered directions, she opened the window carefully; with the aid of a chair she stepped on the sill, and thence jumped down.
"Mind my narcissuses," growled the office-boy. "’Ere's your ticket. Two and two."
"Can you keep 'em in there till I get away?"
"Jump in a carriage at the back of the train, and keep your 'ead well down."
The office-boy found sufficient change in his pocket.
"Shall I—shall I give you a bob for all your kindness?" asked Mord Em'ly hesitatingly.
"Yus," said the office-boy, "do—if you want to insult me."
"I want to thank you."
"Then you stick to your change. Why didn't you tell me you'd run away from somewhere, and—? She's signalled now."
She (who was the train) came into the station, and she took Mord Em'ly, and Mord Em'ly, head well down, waved a hand as farewell to the office-boy. Looking out as the train went Londonwards the girl saw the chaplain and the new secretary step into the open carriage and drive off. The compartment was, but for herself, empty, and, turning, she executed very gravely on the space between the seats the intricate steps of a jig. | WIKI |

Brendon Edmonds
Brendon Edmonds (born 28 November 1990) is a former New Zealand rugby union player who played as a prop for in the ITM Cup and the in Super Rugby.
Career
Hailing from the Hawke's Bay Region, Edmonds played during the 2006-2008 seasons for the Central Hawkes Bay College 1st XV along with the likes of Dominic Bird, Mua Sala & Andrew Burne. Edmonds then represented Hawkes Bay at Under 16, 18 and 20 level before making his senior breakthrough in 2011 where he came on in the ITM Cup Championship final in Palmerston North against Manawatu, helping his Magpies side win the title and get promoted to the 2012 ITM Cup Premiership. However it was the following year that Edmonds began making a name for himself with some strong displays in a good campaign for the Magpies.
He was not initially named in any Super Rugby squads for the 2014 season, but some injuries to front-row players at the Hurricanes saw him called up to their wider training squad. He debuted on 18 April 2014 as a second-half substitute in a 39–20 victory for the Hurricanes over the in Wellington.
Edmonds signed for the for the 2015 Super Rugby season. He was described as a powerful scrummager with a high work rate who performed well in the successful 2015 Super Rugby season for the Highlanders as they won the Super Rugby championship.
His career was ended by a serious knee injury against the Western Force on April 1, 2016 which left him with nerve damage in his left knee.

Don’t Waste Time on These 4 Brands’ Stocks — Buy These 4 Brands Instead
Diversification is key to a successful portfolio, and most investors know that you want to have a good mix of stocks in different industries. That’s the easy part — the challenge is knowing which stocks to purchase in a given industry or sector.

Choosing stocks to invest in based on your preferences is a good place to start — after all, Warren Buffett often said, “buy what you know.” But you want to choose the best companies out of the ones you know.
Here are four brands you want to consider, and four you may want to pass up.
Morningstar said Costco (COST) benefits from its loyal customer base of 76 million members who pay annually for the privilege of shopping there, and renew those memberships at a rate of 90%. While retail can be a challenging sector in uncertain economic times, Costco’s reputation for quality goods at rock bottom prices bodes well for its success, even as prices rise.
Target (TGT) stock is down 32% in the past year, primarily due to consumer backlash from its very public cancellation of its diversity, equity and inclusion policy. Despite the retailer’s insistence that it still values employees and customers from every demographic, many shoppers have abandoned the Target ship and may never return. The chain’s recent decision to eliminate price matching didn’t win any points with consumers either.
Read Next: Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Bought Over $73 Million in Shares of This Tech Company — Here’s Why
General Motors (GM) stock is up 21% in the past year, although it’s down slightly this year (1.4%). It has a 1-year target estimate of $57.10, up almost 10% from its Aug. 1 close of $52.53. Given the uncertainty around tariffs, this is nearly as good as it gets for automotive stocks at the moment. General Motors has been through tough times before and has always come through.
Telsa (TSLA) stock is down 25% this year, and while diehard fans will say it’s time to ‘buy the dip,’ the uncertainty of the overall economy, the automotive sector, and the electric vehicle (EV) industry should give you pause. Tariffs will hit the auto industry hard, and the elimination of EV credits is a one-two punch for Tesla and other EV companies.
Yum China Holdings (YUMC), owner and franchisor of KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and other fast-food chains, is up 55% in the past year, and analysts expect continued success. Restaurant stocks can be volatile in times of uncertainty, and food and labor cost pressures are likely to continue, but Yum Brands, with its focus on cheap, filling food, could fare better than most.
Denny’s Corporation (DENN) stock has dropped nearly 50% in the past year and traded at $3.60 per share as of Aug. 1. The breakfast-centric chain has seen an outsize impact on costs due to the rising price of eggs, a staple menu item and common ingredient in its dishes. Rising costs in the razor-thin margin environment of quick-service restaurants have Denny’s scrambling to finance its outsize debt, and the result is increased risk.
Disney (DIS) has long been a darling of investors, and the current environment is no different. Up 25% in the past year, the entertainment juggernaut may face less risk from tariffs than many other companies, and the diversification of its businesses bodes well for economically uncertain times. Analysts expect a modest increase in the share price over the next 12 months, from $116.59 on Aug. 1, to an average of $129.89 in a year.
Six Flags Entertainment Corporation (FUN) shareholders have seen their investment decline 37% over the past year. While some analysts recommend buying, the company itself has indicated that its foot traffic in parks declined in the second quarter. The company cited poor weather as a reason that people may be staying away from theme parks, and it remains committed to improving its parks.
No matter which brands you buy, it’s important to do your homework. Look at past performance and analyst expectations for future results. Consider how the overall economy may affect the companies whose stocks are on your list. And, once you’ve bought, keep an eye on them to make sure they’re performing as you expect. If not, it may be time to sell and buy something new.

This page should morph into a guidelines document upstream developpers can consult before releasing material for us to package. It should list clear requirements, and provide a terse explanation on the reasons behind each of the rules we lay out.
The original JPackage version can be found at http://www.jpackage.org/request.php
What we are talking about
All the rules outlined in the following document apply to the release dumps of archive files a project publishes. Unlike an external developer, an external packager will usually not devote his energies to a single project. Web tools like FAQs, cvswebs, bugzillas, and mail archives are of little interest to a packager. He will use them, but only as a last resort. The developer realm is the application. The packager realm is the whole system. This broader focus means a packager cannot afford as deep a knowledge of individual projects as a developer can.
A well run project will provide releases that stand on their own, include all build/licensing/usage documentation, and do not require any external patches to run. This only applies for the materials the project "owns" and maintains - external tools and libraries are subject to their own separate packaging processes.
What we are absolutely not talking about
All the restrictions listed in this document do not apply to internal project tools. We absolutely do not care about the project CVS organization, the shortcuts developers take to simplify their lives, etc as long as they do not bleed into the release archives.
Bear in mind though, if the internal project layout drifts too far from the requirements of the release archives, releasing your project will become increasingly painful and expensive.
What we are not talking about yet
Since the actual packaging rules each distribution uses have not been standardized yet, we do not ask upstream projects to provide Linux packages or automated tasks to create them. Even if there is a common packaging policy and tools, please do not include the package build scripts debian/, RPM spec file in the distribution, as packagers will need to modify them and they will get out of sync with the upstream version.
However, even when generic packages will be possible, and upstream authors will provide the scritps/description files/<whatever we agree upon>, there will probably still be a need for fine-tuning these files. The actual changes though should become more and more minor and will be done in the usual patching procedure during package builds.
And now, the actual rules.
The rules
1. Provide source-only releases
When building software from sources, binaries are only a waste of bandwidth and disk space. The same is true for javadocs, generated docs, and so on. But nothing prevents for you from providing a binary release either.
2. Do not include external binaries
Including external binaries is evil because:
But nothing prevents you from providing those binaries in a separate archive.
3. Document your application dependencies
A clean doc listing:
... can help an external packager immensely. Bundling the dependency binaries with your archive is no substitute - people won't trust a binary blob of unknown origins, investigating these origins will often make packaging your software much too expensive.
4. Provide all the sources and scripts needed for building
It is always a pain to not have doclet sources, or an ant build script, as it prevents to recreate original building process.
This does not mean you have to bundle external stuff see previous point. You shall however provide all the facilities needed to build your project that you are maintaining yourself.
Moreover, if several of your projects use the same infrastructure, making it a standalone public project is often a worthwhile move.
5. Do not download any files during the build process
6. Help people specify the build <tt>CLASSPATH</tt>
When people add your software to an integrated system, they will use the external dependencies already provided by this system, not the jar files you use internally. This means they will need to specify a classpath part for each dependency of your software. Do not assume:
Make specifying the build classpath easy using either command line switches or property files and document it.
7. Do not use non-API classes
We try to get a package working with as many JVM and environments alternative sources/versions for one API as possible. Every use of a non API sun. classes, java.home layout, basicly everything, which isn't explictly declared API can break a package on different systems. Non-API can change without notice, even in minor releases. Don't depend on it!
This is especially true if non sun derived JVM like kaffe, gij/gcj and sablevm are used to run your application and the application usees internal sun. classes or assumes a java.home layout.
8. Do not use or rely on Class-Path references in jar MANIFESTs
The Class-Path system of MANIFESTs is evil because:
Classpath handling is a generic problem and will be handled at the system level see also ApplicationClasspath.
9. Do not assume a single-root file layout
Unlike a Windows system, a Linux system will install your files in different parts of the filesystem depending on their use and the filesystem properties they need. This is an hard requirement for all applications regardless of the langage they're written in.
The filesystem layout used by every single Linux distribution is documented in the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. Read the spec and see how all the file/directories you use fit in.
10. Do not assume the user will be the system administrator
Unix system have a clear administrator/user separation. If your software is intended for a end-user, do not assume he will be allowed to manipulate common configuration files or plugin directories.
11. Provide Unix archives
The zip format doesn't preserve Unix file permissions, and is inefficient. Gzipped, or even better, bzipped tarballs are more convenient. But nothing prevents you from providing also zip format archives.
12. Use clear versionning
And include it in your archive filenames.
Having a single URI pointing to different contents at different points of times makes packaging difficult.
An untagged CVS dump is not a proper version.
The usual naming is a name-x.y.z.tar.gz archive containing the same name-x.y.z top directory. No top directory or a top directory named a different way than the archive can be handled but it's generally a pain. Please do not try and mix all namexyz name.xyz NAME_x_y_z... permutations - choose one, preferably name-x.y.z, and stick to it.
13. Provide a cryptographically GPG signed hash of your archives
So people can check they are really using the sources you released, and your software has not been modified by a malicious entity on your download servers.
14. Provide a clear licensing document
So it can be added to the package documentation.
Avoid custom licenses - packagers and end-users are no lawyers. If they are not sure of what you allow them to, they'll pass. Use widely-distributed licenses everyone understands and that have been reviewed by organisations like the OSI http://www.opensource.org/licenses/
15. Provide a sensical default configuration
... if your software can be configured.
Ideally it should be sufficient to test your software, and not dangerous security-wise.
If people need to read a lenghty documentation to use your sofware, they will pass on it the packager first of them
16. Do include tests
... in your release archives. Bear in mind though if one needs deep knowledge of your application to run the tests, they won't be used. In this case including them in your release is a waste of bandwidth. The same attention should be put into the test scripts as in the build scripts - people won't waste time fixing hardcoded jar references in a test file.
Also, a packager may not have the knowledge necessary to evaluate test output. A simple summary at the end of the run listing the tests that passed and the tests that failed, the tests that are critical and the tests that aren't helps a lot
17. Do include examples and documentation
But bear in mind if some part of the documentation does not follow the same release cycle as the rest of your product, it will be easier for everyone if it has its own release process and release archives.
Also, if some part of the documentation can be generated from the source files like javadoc or docbook documents a linux packager will always prefer regenerating it than using precooked files see 1.. So either do not include them at all, or put them in a separate archive and do include clean versions of the scripts used to generate this documentation.
18. debian only yet Do not rely on environment variables to run your app
Debian has a policy that a application must run without any set environment variables. A user shouldn't need to do some configuration beforehand to get a app working.
So don't use JAVA_HOME to figure out the JVM see FindingWorkingRuntime for proposed solutions to the problem. | ESSENTIALAI-STEM |
Belarus May Devalue Currency by 15% Next Month, Medley Says
Belarus may let its currency devalue
by as much as 15 percent in September as the government attempts
to bring the ruble’s official exchange rate closer to black-
market levels, according to Medley Global Advisors LLC. “The authorities are having a hard time meeting their
month-to-month commitments,” Kaan Nazli, director of emerging
markets at Medley in New York , said by phone late yesterday.
“It’ll probably be a devaluation of 10 percent to 15 percent
that they’ll allow whether that’s as much as they need is a
different question.” Belarus may stop “artificially” supporting the currency in
mid-September, Interfax reported yesterday, citing President
Aleksandr Lukashenko. Belarus allowed the managed ruble to drop
36 percent against the dollar in May. The ruble, whose official central-bank rate is 5,107 per
dollar tomorrow, traded for as little as 9,000 on the streets,
according to Barbara Nestor , an emerging-markets strategist at
Commerzbank AG, who recently returned from a research trip to
the country. To contact the reporters on this story:

Frequently Asked Questions...
when welding what does mig stand for?
Best Answer...
Answer:
MIG (Metal Inert Gas) or as it even is called GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) uses an aluminium alloy wire as a combined electrode and filler material. The filler metal is added continuously and welding without filler-material is therefore not possible. Since all welding parameters are controlled by the welding machine, the process is also called semi-automatic welding.
The MIG-process uses a direct current power source, with the electrode positive (DC, EP). By using a positive electrode, the oxide layer is efficiently removed from the aluminium surface, which is essential for avoiding lack of fusion and oxide inclusions. The metal is transferred from the filler wire to the weld bead by magnetic forces as small droplets, spray transfer. This gives a deep penetration capability of the process and makes it possible to weld in all positions. It is important for the quality of the weld that the spray transfer is obtained.
There are two different MIG-welding processes, conventional MIG and pulsed MIG:
Conventional MIG uses a constant voltage DC power source. Since the spray transfer is limited to a certain range of arc current, the conventional MIG process has a lower limit of arc current (or heat input). This also limits the application of conventional MIG to weld material thicknesses above 4 mm. Below 6 mm it is recommended that backing is used to control the weld bead.
Pulsed MIG uses a DC power source with superimposed periodic pulses of high current. During the low current level the arc is maintained without metal transfer. During the high current pulses the metal is transferred in the spray mode. In this way pulsed MIG is possible to operate with lower average current and heat input compared to conventional MIG. This makes it possible to weld thinner sections and weld much easily in difficult welding positions. | ESSENTIALAI-STEM |

Draw IplImage
OpenCV stores images in a data structure called IplImage. They provide methods for rendering it to the screen, but if you want to use OpenGL instead (which should be faster and gives you more flexibility), I wrote the following code. It should be a little faster than loading the IplImage into a texture first, and then drawing it (if you have to do this every frame).
void DrawIplImage(IplImage *image, int x = 0, int y = 0, GLfloat xZoom = 1.0f, GLfloat yZoom = 1.0f)
{
GLenum format;
switch(image->nChannels) {
case 1:
format = GL_LUMINANCE;
break;
case 2:
format = GL_LUMINANCE_ALPHA;
break;
case 3:
format = GL_BGR;
break;
default:
return;
}
glRasterPos2i(x, y);
glPixelZoom(xZoom, yZoom);
glDrawPixels(image->width, image->height, format, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, image->imageData);
}
It should be pretty straight forward to use. Handles IplImages with 1 or 3 layers. Should work with 2 layers too, but I haven't needed or found an example of this.

How does an alarm motion sensor work?
How does an alarm motion sensor work?
Active ultrasonic sensors emit ultrasonic sound waves at a frequency above the range of human hearing. These waves bounce off objects in the immediate vicinity and return to the motion sensor. A transducer within the sensor acts as a waypoint for the signal—it sends the pulse and receives the echo.
Is there a motion sensor alarm?
The motion sensing alarm surely optimizes their security monitoring system. The most common sensor alarms found in the residential or commercial buildings are Passive Infrared Sensors (PIRs). These security systems are capable of detecting radiation that naturally originates from a human body.
What is best motion sensor?
Compare the top motion sensor lights
Product Best for Motion detection range
LeonLite Best overall 70 ft. 180°
Maxsa Most versatile 40 ft. 180°
Mr. Beams Budget pick 30 ft. 120º
Baxia Technology Best path lights 16 ft. 125°
How much is a motion sensor?
Motion Sensor Lights Cost by Type of Sensor
Type Average Costs per Light (Materials Only)
Automatic $30 – $100
Ultrasonic $40 – $100
Area Reflective $40 – $100
Dual-Technology $50 – $300
What is the difference between motion sensor and PIR?
The way that a motion sensor detects movement has nothing to do with how light or dark it is in the immediate area. When a person walks within the detection field of a PIR sensor, the device will sense their infrared energy and respond accordingly.
Does a motion sensor have a camera?
Most smart security cameras are motion sensor cameras. This means that they have a smart sensor built-in – and that’s the key to your smart camera always being ready to record when something happens.
Which device is used as motion sensor?
A motion detector is an electrical device that utilizes a sensor to detect nearby motion. Such a device is often integrated as a component of a system that automatically performs a task or alerts a user of motion in an area.
Are motion sensors worth it?
Motion detectors are best at detecting once an intruder has already entered, while window sensors are better at detecting the actual intrusion attempt. For most people, both of these things are going to be worthwhile.
Are motion sensors good?
Motion sensors are excellent at detecting when an intruder is already inside the house. They should be placed in parts of the house that an intruder would have to pass through to get to other parts of your house, especially in areas where there are no movements such as a whirring fan or rustling curtains.
Which is better PIR or IR sensor?
While PIR sensors are excellent if you want to detect general movement, they don’t give you any more information on your subject. To know more, you’ll need an active IR sensor. Setting up an active IR sensor requires both an emitter and receiver, but this sensing method is simpler than its passive counterpart.
What is difference between motion sensor and occupancy sensor?
The Occupancy sensor detects presence of people or animals in the target monitored area. The motion sensor responds to moving objects only. The difference between them is occupancy sensor produce signals whenever an object is stationary or not while motion sensor is sensitive to only moving objects.

Title: Navigating Central Path with Electrical Flows: from Flows to Matchings, and Back
Abstract:
We describe a new way of employing electrical flow computations to solve the maximum flow and minimum s-t cut problems. This approach draws on ideas underlying path-following interior-point methods (IPMs) – a powerful tool in convex optimization - and exploits certain interplay between maximum flows and bipartite matchings.
The resulting algorithm provides improvements over some long-standing running time bounds for the maximum flow and minimum s-t cut problems, as well as, the closely related bipartite matching problem. Additionally, we establish a connection between primal-dual structure of electrical flows and convergence behavior of IPMs when applied to flow problems. This connection enables us to overcome the notorious Omega(sqrt(m))-iterations convergence barrier that all the known interior-point methods suffer from.

Title: Dynamic Steiner Tree
Abstract:
We study the Steiner tree problem over a dynamic set of terminals. We
consider the model where we are given an n-vertex graph G with
nonnegative edge weights. Our goal is to maintain a tree T which is a
constant approximation of the minimum Steiner tree in G, as the set of
terminal vertices changes over time. The changes applied to the
terminal set are terminal additions or removals. We obtain a
polylogarithmic time algorithm for dynamic Steiner tree in planar
graphs and a sublinear one for general graphs. We also show that after
each operation a small number of changes to the tree (in amortized
sense) suffices to maintain a (2+epsilon)-approximate Steiner tree.
This is joint work with Jakub Oćwieja, Marcin Pilipczuk, Piotr Sankowski and Anna Zych.

Title: Online bipartite matching in offline time
Abstract:
We present an alternative method for constructing augmenting-path algorithms and demonstrate it using bipartite matchings. The resulting algorithm is able to maintain maximum cardinality bipartite matching in one-sided online fashion in total time of O(mn^{1/2}), i.e., the same as the offline Hopcroft-Karp algorithm. The resulting procedure is very simple and uses just one graph search algorithm DFS or BFS. Moreover, our approach has a number of desirable properties that, depending on the context, could make it a preferred choice even in the offline setting. Besides introducing the algorithm and the intuition behind it, the talk will outline the major lemmas and sketch the non-technical parts of the proof.
This is joint work with Bartłomiej Bosek, Piotr Sankowski and Anna Zych.

-- Woodside to Return Cash After Abandoning $45 Billion LNG Project
Woodside Petroleum Ltd. (WPL) ,
Australia’s second-largest oil producer, will return about $520
million to investors in dividends after dropping plans to build
a liquefied natural gas project estimated to cost $45 billion. Woodside’s shares rose the most since December 2008 after
deciding to pay a special dividend of 63 cents a share and to
boost the dividend payout ratio. Woodside climbed as much as 8.5
percent to A$37.53 in Sydney and traded at A$37.33 as of 11:21
a.m. local time. The benchmark index gained 1.2 percent. The Australian energy company said earlier this month it
would consider accelerating the return of capital to investors
after scrapping the proposal to build the Browse project on
shore in Western Australia in favor of studying cheaper options.
Woodside also signaled a delay to the next stage of its A$15
billion ($15.4 billion) Pluto LNG project, ending talks with
companies to obtain gas supplies needed for its expansion, the
company said April 18. Woodside’s sales and production have risen since the
initial phase of the Pluto venture started a year ago. The
company’s first-quarter sales climbed 21 percent to $1.45
billion, while production rose 55 percent to 21.9 million
barrels of oil equivalent, according to a statement last week. The company will target a dividend payout ratio of 80
percent of underlying net profit after tax and expects to
maintain that level for several years, Woodside said in the
statement today. The special dividend will be paid May 29 to all
shareholders registered on May 6, Woodside said. The board made those decisions “given the lead times
involved with the growth projects and forecast reductions in the
company’s debt levels,” according to the statement. Woodside
will “continue to pursue growth opportunities where we believe
they will create value,” the company said. A new onshore Browse development would have cost about $45
billion, JPMorgan Chase & Co. said in an April 12 report.
Woodside said it’s studying alternatives including floating LNG. To contact the reporter on this story:

Nuclear weapons and the United States
I wrote this up a few weeks ago, and think I hit most of the major bases. My goal is to develop a prototype article which could be used for all of the nuclear powers (and non-nuclear ones as well, potentially) which would give a brief synopsis of the country's involvement with nuclear weapons — historically and up through the current status. I'm concerned with making sure the article is understandable by people without much knowledge of military jargon or nuclear weapons minutiae and keeping a neutral POV. The article is currently a little tipsy at 38K, as well. Any suggestions and editing eyes would be appreciated. Many thanks. --Fastfission 7 July 2005 21:45 (UTC)
* This is great work. One element that I would expect to have in an article covering all aspects of nuclear weapons and the United States is more on the concerns over nuclear attack. It would be good to have a section on various defensive programs, such as Dew Line, Duck and Cover, and SDI, as well as something on the public fears and the cultural effects of the threat of nuclear war on the United States. Conversely the page could also be reamed to something more specific, such as "United States nuclear weapon program." The only other concern is that the lead does not yet meet the lead guidelines. - SimonP July 8, 2005 00:30 (UTC) | WIKI |

In Trump's meeting with Viktor Orbán, NATO interests and democratic values at stake
Monday's White House visit by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán — billed as an opportunity to cooperate on energy, trade and security issues — has left Washington divided. The big picture: Hungary is a NATO member and potential partner in countering threats from Russia and China. Yet under Orbán, the country has witnessed democratic backsliding that presents its own threats to transatlantic security. The meeting with President Trump could undermine U.S. leadership on democratic values and human rights. Where it stands: Holding the upper hand in Central Europe would better position the Trump administration to prevent Russian efforts to divide NATO. The alliance would be endangered if Hungary became a Moscow proxy. President Trump can lean on ideological affinities with Orbán, who supported his campaign and shares his strident views on immigration. Hungarians hope Trump will join an anti-immigration alliance and bolster opposition to the UN’s global migration pact. The meeting is also a chance to push back on Hungary’s deepening ties to China, including its embrace of Huawei — an issue Secretary of State Mike Pompeo raised in Budapest in February with Orbán and top officials. Yes, but: Orbán’s politics skew authoritarian: He has repressed civil society and the media while fueling corruption, xenophobia and anti-Semitism. Trump's meeting with him lends legitimacy to his illiberal agenda. Between the lines: The meeting takes place as Budapest clashes with the EU over Orbán's agenda — a fight that has reached the U.S. as well. The European Parliament voted in September to trigger potentially punitive proceedings against Hungary, in response to policies of Orbán’s seen as contrary to EU values. Orbán's political party, Fidesz, was suspended in March by the European People’s Party (EPP) for being undemocratic and undercutting the rule of law, in addition to having mounted an anti–EU campaign that targeted EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, a senior member of the EPP and George Soros. U.S. lawmakers introduced a resolution in January condemning Orbán for "efforts to undermine democracy and violate human rights” that has support in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. The bottom line: Trump’s meeting with Orbán is raising concerns in Washington and the capitals of U.S. allies across Europe. It may ultimately do little to halt Budapest’s growing ties with Moscow and Beijing, given the extents to which Orbán aligns with Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping and has alienated European leaders.

User:Micahabresch/sandbox-slavecodes
Slave Codes are the subset of laws regarding slavery and enslaved people, specifically in the Americas. Most slave codes were concerned the rights and duties of free people in regards to enslaved people. Slave codes left a great deal unsaid, with much of the actual practice of slavery being a matter of traditions rather than formal law.
The primary colonial powers all had slightly different slave codes. The French, after 1685, had the Code Noir specifically for this purpose. The Spanish had some laws regarding slavery in Las Siete Partidas, although it was not comprehensive. The English colonies largely had their own local slave codes, mostly based on the codes of either Barbados or Virginia. After gaining independence, most states in the United States kept the slave codes they had before independence, although they began to diverge after that point.
In addition to the these national and state- or colony-level slave codes, there were city ordinances and other local restrictions regarding slaves.
Typical Slave Codes
There are many similarities between the various slave codes. The most common elements are:
* Movement Restrictions: Most regions required any slaves away from their plantations or outside of the cities they resided in to have a pass signed by their master (list of codes here). Many cities in the slave-states required slave-tags, small copper badges that enslaved people wore, to show that slaves were allow to go move about.
* Marriage Restrictions: Most places restricted the marriage rights of enslaved people, ostensibly to prevent them from trying to change masters by marrying into a family on another plantation.
* Prohibitions on Gathering: Slave codes usually prevented large groups of enslaved people away from their plantations outside of very specific circumstances.
* Slave Patrols: In the slave-dependent portions of North America, varying degrees of legal authority backed patrols by plantation owners and other free whites to ensure that enslaved people were not free to move about at night, and to generally enforce the restrictions on slaves.
* Trade and Commerce by Slaves: Initially, most places gave enslaved people some land to work personally and allowed them to operate their own markets. As slavery became more profitable, slave codes restricting the rights of enslaved people to buy, sell, and produce goods were restricted. In some places, slave tags were required to be borne by enslaved people to prove that they were allowed to participate in certain types of work.
Slave Codes of the English Colonies and the United States
There was no central English slave code, with each colony forming its own code. After winning their independence, the individual states ratified new constitutions, but their laws were generally a continuation of the laws those regions maintained prior to that point, their slave codes remaining unchanged.
The first comprehensive English slave code was from Barbados in 1661. Modifications of the Barbadian slave codes were put in place in Jamaica in 1664, and were then greatly modified in 1684. The Barbadian codes were copied by and South Carolina in 1691. The South Carolina slave code served as the model for other colonies in North America. In 1770, Georgia adopted the South Carolina slave code, and Florida adopted the Georgia code.
Virginia's slave codes were made in parallel to those in Barbados, with individual laws starting in 1667 and a comprehensive slave code passed in 1705. The slave codes of the tobacco colonies (Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, and Virginia) were modeled on the Virginia code.
The northern colonies developed their own slave codes at later dates, with New York passing a comprehensive code in 1702.
Slavery was restricted throughout the British Empire by the Slave Trade Act of 1807, which prevented trading slaves, but did not actually end slavery. In 1833, the Slavery Abolition Act ended slavery throughout the British Empire.
In the United States, there was a division between slave states and free states, roughly along the "Mason-Dixon Line", a division formalized in the Missouri Compromise (refer to Mason-Dixon line page for reference). At the start of the Civil War, there were 34 states in the United States, 15 of which were slave states, all of which had slave codes. The 19 free states did not have slave codes, although they still had laws regarding slavery and en-slaved people, covering such concerns as how to handle slaves from slave-states, whether they were runaways or with their owners.
Slavery was not banned nationwide in the United States until the Thirteenth Amendment was ratified on December 6, 1865. Earlier national laws greatly regulating slavery in the United States were the Act Prohibiting Importation of Slaves on 1 January 1808 which made it a felony to import slaves from abroad, and the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which required runaway enslaved people found in free states to be returned to their owners in the South.
French Slave Codes
The French colonies were the only portion of the Americas to have an effective slave code applied from the center of the empire. King Louis XIV applied the Code Noir in 1685, and it was adopted by Saint-Domingue in 1687 and the West Indies in 1687, Guyana in 1704, Reunion in 1723, and Louisiana in 1724. It was never applied in Canada, which had very few slaves. The Code Noir was developed in part to combat the spread of Protestantism and thus focuses more on religious restrictions than other slave codes. The Code was updated in 1724.
New Orleans developed slave codes under Spain, France, and the United States, due Louisiana changing hands several times, resulting in a very complex set of slave codes. The needs of the locals usually held in favor of any outside laws.
France abolished slavery after the revolution, first by freeing second-generation slaves in 1794.
Spanish Slave Codes
In practice, the slave codes of the Spanish and Portuguese colonies were local laws, similar to those in other regions. There was an avenue for manumission for slaves, but it wasn't used notably more often than the avenues for manumission in other regions.
There was an overarching slave-code, Las Siete Partidas, which granted many specific rights to the slaves in these regions, but there is almost no record of it actually being used to benefit the slaves in the Americas. Las Siete Partidas was compiled in the thirteenth century, long before the colonization of the new world, and its treatment of slavery was based on the Roman tradition. Frank Tannenbaum, an influential sociologist who wrote on the treatment of slaves in the Americas treated the laws in Las Siete Partidas as an accurate reflection of treatment, but later scholarship has moved away from this viewpoint, arguing that it did not reflect actual practices.
An attempt to unify the Spanish slave codes, the Codigo Negro, was cancelled without ever going into effect because it was too unpopular with the slave-owners in the Americas.
The Laws of the Indies were an ongoing body of laws, modified throughout the history of the Spanish colonies, that incorporated many slave laws in the later versions.

NAME ^
Class::Mockable
DESCRIPTION ^
A handy mix-in for making stuff mockable.
Use this so that when testing your code you can easily mock how your code talks to other bits of code, thus making it possible to test your code in isolation, and without relying on third-party services.
SYNOPSIS ^
use Class::Mockable
_email_sender => 'Email::Sender::Simple',
_email_sent_storage => 'MyApp::Storage::EmailSent';
is equivalent to:
{
my $email_sender;
_reset_email_sender();
sub _reset_email_sender {
$email_sender = 'Email::Sender::Simple'
};
sub _email_sender {
my $class = shift;
if (exists($_[0])) { $email_sender = shift; }
return $email_sender;
}
my $email_sent_storage;
_reset_email_sent_storage();
sub _reset_email_sent_storage {
$email_sent_storage = 'MyApp::Storage::EmailSent'
};
sub _email_sent_storage {
my $class = shift;
if (exists($_[0])) { $email_sent_storage = shift; }
return $email_sent_storage;
}
}
HOW TO USE IT ^
After setting up as above, the anywhere that your code would want to refer to the class 'Email::Sender::Simple', for example, you would do this:
my $sender = $self->_email_sender();
In your tests, you would do this:
My::Module->_email_sender('MyApp::Tests::Mocks::EmailSender');
ok(My::Module->send_email(...), "email sending stuff works");
where 'MyApp::Tests::Mocks::EmailSender' pretends to be the real email sending class, only without spamming everyone every time you run the tests. And of course, if you do want to really send email from a test - perhaps you want to do an end-to-end test before releasing - you would do this:
My::Module->_reset_email_sender() if($ENV{RELEASE_TESTING});
ok(My::Module->send_email(...),
"email sending stuff works (without mocking)");
to restore the default functionality.
METHOD MOCKING
We also provide a way of easily inserting shims that wrap around methods that you have defined.
use Class::Mockable
methods => {
_foo => 'foo',
};
The above will create a _foo sub on your class that by default will call your class's foo() subroutine. This behaviour can be changed by calling the setter function _set_foo (where _foo is your identifier). The default behaviour can be restored by calling _reset_foo (again, where _foo is your identifier).
For example:
package Some::Module;
use Class::Mockable
methods => {
_bar => 'bar',
};
sub bar {
my $self = shift;
return "Bar";
}
sub foo {
my $self = shift;
return $self->_bar();
}
package main;
Some::Module->_set_bar(
sub {
my $self = shift;
return "Foo";
}
);
print Some::Module->bar(); # Prints "Bar"
print Some::Module->foo(); # Prints "Foo"
Some::Module->_reset_bar();
print Some::Module->bar(); # Prints "Bar"
print Some::Module->foo(); # Prints "Bar"
It will also work for inserting a shim into a subclass to wrap around a method inherited from a superclass.

Värmland Savonian dialect
Värmland Finnish dialect (Vermlannin savolaismurteet) is an extinct Savonian dialect spoken in Värmland by the Forest Finns. However some speakers also lived in Norway.
In Savonian dialects, a vowel is inserted in the middle of a word talavi 'winter' (written Finnish "talvi"), however this feature is completely lacking from Värmland Finnish, which suggests it was a later development in Savonian.
History
Savo Finnish speakers came to Sweden during the 1600s (mainly from Rautalampi). During the 1800s, there were thousands of Finnish speakers in Värmland. Unlike Savonian, the Värmland dialect did not have consonant gemination or the schwa, because they were later developments in the Savonian dialects spoken in Finland.
By the 1960s, only a few descendants of the original Savonians who had spoken Finnish as children remained. The last speakers of Värmland Savonian were Johansson-Oinoinen and Karl Persson, who died in 1965 and 1969. | WIKI |

Create a Ruby on Rails App in App Service on Linux
Azure App Service on Linux provides a highly scalable, self-patching web hosting service. This quickstart shows you how to create a basic Ruby on Rails application that can then be deployed to Azure as a Web App on Linux.
Note
The Ruby development stack only supports Ruby on Rails at this time. If you want to use a different platform, such as Sinatra, please see the quickstart for Web App for Containers.
Hello-world
If you don't have an Azure subscription, create a free account before you begin.
Prerequisites
Download the sample
In a terminal window, run the following command to clone the sample app repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/ruby-docs-hello-world
Run the application locally
Run the application locally so that you see how it should look when you deploy it to Azure. Open a terminal window, change to the hello-world directory, and use the rails server command to start the server.
The first step is to install the required gems. There's a Gemfile included in the sample so you don't need to specify the gems to install. We'll use bundler for this:
bundle install
Once the gems are installed, we'll use bundler to start the app:
bundle exec rails server
Using your web browser, navigate to http://localhost:3000 to test the app locally.
Hello World configured
Open Azure Cloud Shell
Azure Cloud Shell is a free, interactive shell that you can use to run the steps in this article. Common Azure tools are preinstalled and configured in Cloud Shell for you to use with your account. Just select the Copy button to copy the code, paste it in Cloud Shell, and then press Enter to run it. There are a few ways to open Cloud Shell:
Select Try It in the upper-right corner of a code block. Cloud Shell in this article
Open Cloud Shell in your browser. https://shell.azure.com/bash
Select the Cloud Shell button on the menu in the upper-right corner of the Azure portal. Cloud Shell in the portal
Configure a deployment user
In the Cloud Shell, configure deployment credentials with the az webapp deployment user set command. This deployment user is required for FTP and local Git deployment to a web app. The user name and password are account level. They are different from your Azure subscription credentials.
In the following example, replace <username> and <password> (including brackets) with a new user name and password. The user name must be unique within Azure. The password must be at least eight characters long, with two of the following three elements: letters, numbers, symbols.
az webapp deployment user set --user-name <username> --password <password>
You should get a JSON output, with the password shown as null. If you get a 'Conflict'. Details: 409 error, change the username. If you get a 'Bad Request'. Details: 400 error, use a stronger password.
You need to configure this deployment user only once; you can use it for all your Azure deployments.
Note
Record the user name and password. You need them to deploy the web app later.
Create a resource group
A resource group is a logical container into which Azure resources like web apps, databases, and storage accounts are deployed and managed. For example, you can choose to delete the entire resource group in one simple step later.
In the Cloud Shell, create a resource group with the az group create command. The following example creates a resource group named myResourceGroup in the West Europe location. To see all supported locations for App Service on Linux in Basic tier, run the az appservice list-locations --sku B1 --linux-workers-enabled command.
az group create --name myResourceGroup --location "West Europe"
You generally create your resource group and the resources in a region near you.
When the command finishes, a JSON output shows you the resource group properties.
Create an Azure App Service plan
In the Cloud Shell, create an App Service plan in the resource group with the az appservice plan create command.
The following example creates an App Service plan named myAppServicePlan in the Basic pricing tier (--sku B1) and in a Linux container (--is-linux).
az appservice plan create --name myAppServicePlan --resource-group myResourceGroup --sku B1 --is-linux
When the App Service plan has been created, the Azure CLI shows information similar to the following example:
{
"adminSiteName": null,
"appServicePlanName": "myAppServicePlan",
"geoRegion": "West Europe",
"hostingEnvironmentProfile": null,
"id": "/subscriptions/0000-0000/resourceGroups/myResourceGroup/providers/Microsoft.Web/serverfarms/myAppServicePlan",
"kind": "linux",
"location": "West Europe",
"maximumNumberOfWorkers": 1,
"name": "myAppServicePlan",
< JSON data removed for brevity. >
"targetWorkerSizeId": 0,
"type": "Microsoft.Web/serverfarms",
"workerTierName": null
}
Create a web app
Create a web app in the myAppServicePlan App Service plan.
In the Cloud Shell, you can use the az webapp create command. In the following example, replace <app_name> with a globally unique app name (valid characters are a-z, 0-9, and -). The runtime is set to RUBY|2.3. To see all supported runtimes, run az webapp list-runtimes --linux.
# Bash
az webapp create --resource-group myResourceGroup --plan myAppServicePlan --name <app_name> --runtime "RUBY|2.3" --deployment-local-git

Starter Removal & Unbolt Flex plate from Torque Converter GM Chevy Tahoe Vortec LS Engine vid 14
Removing the starter is not too hard. I made sure I documented what wire went where before disconnecting. Then it was just 2 bolts, and a few tugs on the starter (forward) to get it out.

There is a transmission cover that allows access to the flex plate. This needs to come off to grant access to the bolts that attach the flex plate to the torque converter. I did not record this process. There are some really good videos already on YouTube that document this process. I include references to the one that helped me out. Essentially, you need to turn the engine to access each bolt. In other words, turn the engine (from a socket over the crank bolt up front) and expose the first bolt. Remove it, turn the crank, remove bolt 2, and so on.
I used a little PB and let it soak in for an hour or so. Then I used a universal on an air wrench (it was floppy, so I taped it up). The universal allowed me to get the air wrench in where the starter usually goes, and access to the bolts. This is another case where torqueing the bolts turns the flex plate and would otherwise be very hard. I saw videos where other people jammed a slot head screwdriver into one of the teeth of the flex plate to keep it from turning, but I was afraid I would probably break something.
So, check out the video, and be sure to check out my other videos, subscribe to my YouTube channel, and like and comment. Thanks!

682 tank could cross trenches up to II ft. 6 in. in width and could climb a vertical height up to 5 feet. Six of the first establishments of tanks were equipped with a wireless set capable of sending and also to some degree of receiving. 1
Two features of the Mark I. tank were not perpetuated in later patterns, except in the first gun-carrier machines. One was the tail. This consisted of a pair of wheels carried by a frame pivoted at the stern of the machine which for ordinary steering could be ac- tuated by the driver by means of wire cables. For sharp turns, which were effected by driving on one track alone, they could be raised off the surface of the ground by a hydraulic ram at the back of the tank. The weight of this tail attachment also served to ease the rate of descent of the tank after crossing a summit, and the extra length it gave to the whole machine increased the width of the gap which could be crossed. It was found in actual practice that the complica- tion and liability to damage the tail was not compensated for by its advantages, and its use was abandoned after the first actions. In both the male and female Mark I. machines the 6-pdr. and Vickers machine-guns were mounted in sponsons to give as far as possible arcs of fire up to direct ahead and astern. In order to reduce the width so that the tanks could be carried by rail these sponsons were removable and could be unshipped for travelling, when they were carried on small wheeled trollies. The inconvenience of this system caused it to be abandoned, and in later patterns of tank the sponsons were so designed that when travelling they could be swung inwards and housed in the width of the tank, or could be unbolted and slid in.
In March 1916, measures were taken to provide the personnel to handle the new weapon, and an establishment was framed for a unit. For secrecy this unit, under the command of Col. Swin- ton, was raised and formed, as a portion of an existing service, under the name of the " Heavy Section," subsequently changed to " Heavy Branch," of the Machine-Gun Corps. This was to provide the personnel for the 150 tanks then under construction, without any reserve of machines or man-power. At first the organization was for three battalions of 50 tanks each, but this was altered to six companies of 25 tanks each, each company consisting of four sections of six tanks and one spare tank. Each section was formed of three male and three female machines, and was subdivided into three sub-sections of one male and one female tank. A specially constructed and equipped mobile field workshop was allotted to each two companies. To assist in the formation of this unit a nucleus of officers and men were transferred from the existing Motor Machine-Gun Corps; officers also being obtained from the cadet battalions, and from France, and other ranks being enlisted from the motor trade. Technical personnel of all ranks was supplied by the Mechanical Transport Branch of the Royal Army Service Corps.
The first headquarters of the Heavy Branch were at Bisley, where, since there were no machines, the training was of a pre- liminary nature confined to discipline and gunnery and the use of the Vickers and Hotchkiss machine-guns. Training in gunnery was carried out by means of borrowed guns, and entailed the sending of the men to Salisbury Plain and to the Naval School of Gunnery at Whale Island. So soon as the tanks began to be delivered from the contractors, the training in driving, tactics and shooting from tanks etc., was carried on in a secret area at Elveden in Suffolk, where a facsimile battlefield had been pre- pared. The whole of this work was carried out under immense difficulties as regards time and the need for secrecy, the main underlying idea of all the preparation being that the role of the unit was to assist and help the infantry. By the beginning of Aug. several machines had been delivered, and a certain amount of training in their use had been carried out.
Meanwhile, the Somme offensive having come to a standstill in spite of the power of the British artillery then available, it was decided to use the tanks, or whatever of them were ready, in the renewal of the attack. Two companies of the heavy branch, 50 tanks with 10 spare machines, were accordingly con- centrated in France for this purpose by the end of Aug., and training was continued preparatory to taking part in operations. Friday, Sept. 1 5, was to mark the appearance of the tank in war- fare, when the secret of the new weapon which had been so carefully kept would be revealed and the weapon itself put to the test. The whole production of the unit up to this time was a remarkable feat. Not only had a number of entirely new
1 This scheme was also abandoned and later found necessary.
machines been manufactured sufficient for 60 to take the field within six months of the order for them having been placed at a time of great industrial stress, but the secret of their creation, which was known to thousands, had been so well kept that they did actually come as a surprise to the enemy.
It was to assist in the further advance of the British right flank, which had begun so successfully at the opening of the battle 10 weeks before, between the Somme and the Ancre that the tanks were to be thrown into the fight. The IV. Army was to break through the enemy's front between the Combles ravine and Martinpuich and seize Morval, Les Boeufs, Gueudecourt and Flers. On its left the Reserve V. Army was to attack and gain Martinpuich and Cource- lette while the French were to press on its right. The cavalry were to ' follow up through the gap which it was hoped would be created and seize the high ground about Rocquigny-Villers au Flos-Riencourt- lez-Bapaume. Two companies of the tanks were engaged, the bulk i with the IV. Army, the rest with the Reserve Army. The general ; idea of their tactics was that they should start so as to reach their ! objectives five minutes before the infantry. They were to act in small detachments of two or three machines against the strong i points in the enemy's defensive system, lanes being left for their advance in the artillery barrage commencing at zero hour.
The tanks advanced at dawn in a slight mist and came as a com- plete surprise to the enemy. The operations, of those with the XV. j Corps of the IV. Army were the most successful; but for various ' reasons the results of the employment of tanks was somewhat dis- I appointing. Of the 49 machines taking part 32 alone reached their i starting points, 9 pushed ahead with the infantry and caused con- siderable loss to the enemy and 9 others, which did not catch up the infantry, did good work in dispersing of the enemy still holding out , at isolated^ spots ; of the balance of 14, 9 broke down and 5 became " ditched." (Ditching was usually caused either by a tank getting ! into such a position in a deep and wide crater or trench that its engine power was not sufficient to pull it out, though the tracks ; gripped, or by weight of the machine being taken by its belly on hard ground, in which case the tracks revolved without biting.) One i tank gave remarkable help to the infantry held up in front of Flcrs by wire and machine-gun fire, when by its action it caused the sur- i render of 300 Germans and enabled the infantry to move on. Another destroyed a field gun. On Sept. 25 and 26, 13 machines acted with the IV. and Reserve Armies. Of these nine were ditched in shell craters, two reached the village of Thiepval and stuck there. But again, as a set-off to mishaps, one single tank on the 26th performed a remark- j able feat which demonstrated the potentialities of the machine. Within one hour, and at the expense of five British casualties, it made possible the capture of a strongly held, well wired, trench (the Gird trench) some 1 ,500 yd. long and strengthened by numerous strong points, which had held up a whole brigade of infantry since the previous evening. The Germans suffered heavy loss, and 8 officers and 362, other ranks, surrendered. On Nov. 15, at the battle of the Ancre after heavy rain, of five tanks that went into action, all became ditched, two machines doing very valuable work before this happened. Next day, in an attack on a field work south of Beau- mont Hamel, one machine out of three employed was put out of ac- tion by shell fire, and two became ditched. The latter, however, were able to bring so effective a fire on the strong point that it sur- rendered and 400 prisoners were collected by the tank crews. But, whatever their defects, the tanks had passed with ease through all entanglements and had destroyed many machine-guns, which weapons, indeed, were practically powerless against it.
The employment of the tanks in Sept. 1916 was contrary to the views of those who had originated the Arm, who were responsible for its production and had most studied its action. They held that the utmost value should be obtained from the new weapon and that the secret of its existence should not be given away until a surprise attack could be carried out on a sufficiently extensive scale to give a chance of achieving a de- cisive success. In this sense the launcl|jng of the tanks was a repetition of the error made by the Germans when they released gas on a small section alone on April 22 1915. Whatever may have been the urgency at that time of reviving the momentum of the Somme offensive, which had died away after weeks of great endeavour and immense sacrifice, and of raising the moral of the tired troops, and whatever might have been the success of the new weapon, it is doubtful if the small number actually employed could have given a result to compensate for the pre- mature disclosure of the secret, which in potential value was equal to that of the 42-cm. howitzers and the poison-gas of the enemy. Again, not only was a small number of tanks used, but they were employed in driblets in different directions, instead of together in as great a mass as their available number would allow. As an experiment this trial of the tanks was, no doubt, | WIKI |
Croatia–Denmark relations
Croatia–Denmark relations refers to the current and historical relations between Croatia and Denmark. Relations between the two countries are described as "excellent", "friendly" and "well-developed".
Croatia has an embassy in Copenhagen, while Denmark has an embassy in Zagreb.
Denmark actively supported Croatian accession to the European Union and NATO, with its officials stating that Croatia was the 28th EU member way before that became official in 2013. Today, both countries are full members of the European Union, NATO, OSCE, the Council of Europe and the World Trade Organization.
Following Croatian independence from SFR Yugoslavia, Denmark recognized Croatia on 15 January 1992, while the diplomatic relations were established on 2 January 1992. Since then two countries have signed 26 treaties.
In 2005, Denmark launched a program in Croatia with aim to contribute to the development of the public administration. Focus was on establishing capacity building. Denmark assisted with 13,5 million DKK.
In 2012, Croatia exported $39,6 million worth goods to Denmark and imported from it $110 million worth goods.
On October 21, 2014, Queen Margrethe II awarded Croatian president Ivo Josipović with Order of the Elephant, the highest order of Denmark.

Does diet in Celtic Sea fishes reflect prey availability?
Feeding preferences of Celtic Sea fishes were investigated using a database of stomach content records, collected between 1977 and 1994. The diet of cod Gadus morhua, hake Merluccius merluccius, megrim Lepidorhombus whiffiagonis, whiting Merlangius merlangus and saithe Pollachius virens changed markedly as the animals grew larger, and although large predators generally chose larger bodied prey, the variability of prey sizes consumed also increased. Large predators continued to select small, low value, benthic prey (e.g. Callionymus spp. and Trisopterus spp.) which were easier to catch, rather than larger, more energy lucrative pelagic prey (e.g. mackerel Scomber scombrus), even though these pelagic prey-fishes were nearly always available and were often very abundant. Stock estimates of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea and U.K. groundfish Survey catches were used as indices of prey abundance. Blue-whiting Micromesistius poutassou and other small pelagic Fishes (Argentina spp. and clupeoids) were identified as being particularly important, and were Consumed by sonic predators more often than would be expected given the abundance of these prey in the environment. There was no evidence For density-dependent feeding by predators on mackerel and only hake exhibited density-dependent feeding on horse-mackerel. Hake, cod and megrim consumed more blue-whiting when this prey was at higher abundance in the environment. In choosing what prey to consume predators must balance costs and benefits, considering the quality of prey and the energy expended during search, capture and handling.

AirPlay to Linux / Ubuntu with Shairport v1.0
Linux can receive AirPlay audio using a program called Shairport that I covered over a year ago. Shairplay has since been re-written by the original developer James Laird to no longer rely on perl. The latest version is v1.0-dev here's how to get AirPlay working on Ubuntu using Shairport and iTunes to test it.
1. Download AirPlay (Shairport)
cd /tmp
sudo git clone https://github.com/abrasive/shairport.git shairport
2. Install dependencies
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libavahi-client-dev libasound2-dev build-essential
3. Configure the Shairport build
cd shairport
./configure
4. Make & install Shairport
sudo make
sudo make install
5. Identify your audio output device
aplay -l
My output was:

I want to output via digital spdif. For me that interface is ALC892 Digital [ALC892 Digital] and hardware card 1 device 1 i.e. hw:1,1
Note this device it is used in step 6.
5. Setup the firewall,
Port 3689/ tcp
Port 5353/ tcp / udp
Port 5000 tp 5005 / tcp
Port 6000 to 6005 / udp
It also seems to use dynamic udp ports so I have opened 35000-65535, not ideal.
I use ufw to do this:
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.1/16 to any port 3689 proto tcp
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.1/16 to any port 5353
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.1/16 to any port 5000:5005 proto tcp
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.1/16 to any port 6000:6005 proto udp
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.1/16 to any port 35000:65535 proto udp
6. Run Shairport
shairport -v -a 'Name you want to appear in AirPlay' -o alsa-- -d hw:1,1
Add -v to the above for debugging info, -vv for more debug info and -vvv for even more debug info!
7. AirPlay to your new AirPlay receiver
Note when doing this from an Android phone running DoubleTwist I experienced significant lag before receiving audio c. 30 seconds to a minute. iTunes was pretty much instantaneous < 2 seconds and so was an iPhone.
Troubleshooting
If you receive no audio try disabling the firewall to test (sudo ufw disable), remember to re-enable it (sudo ufw enable)!
Note Shairport does not support AirPlay v2 raop2 which is the protocol that the Ubuntu AirPlay sender uses to output audio.

1. Thanks for this post - briliant stuff!
I'm a bit of an Ubuntu newb, and there were a couple of bonus steps I needed to do - thought I'd comment them here, might help out another newbie.
Before your step 1....I had to:
1. Updated apt-get using: sudo apt-get update
(everyone knows this, right?)
2. Install git first using: sudo apt-get install git
And then start at the guide's step 1.
I didn't have a firewall, so I just ignored your step 5.
When I got to step 6, I was getting an error about the output device, even though I had the hardware address correct (hw:0,0). Because my Ubuntu server is very simple - I ended up just running the following command:
shairport -a 'fx160'
This worked fine, since the default output was alsa, and it used my default audio output device.
Now all I have to do is figure out how to make this happen automatically as the system boots!
Thanks again for a great post.

2. i have finally got sound working with an external usb device on my system. the device is /proc/asound/UA1EX
where do I find the output device character string that shairport needs in the -o field? For the life of me I can't seem to find it....
thanks

There are sixteen days left before the statute of limitations for the murder. Josef and his colleague Michal decide to catch the killer at all cost before the statute expires. His desire to find the killer does not prevent him from using methods that are on the edge of the law. Josef himself says: "Detective work is like walking on thin ice... Well, sometimes the ice is not there at all."

First episode was viewed by more than 1 million viewers beating competition that included miniseries Iveta. Second episode retained the position as it was viewed by 1.066 million viewers. | WIKI |
Talk:Whoonga
Scientists have shown that there are no ARVs in Whoonga
This article refers to two established scientists who have actually tested samples of 'Whoonga,' and have found no ARVs. It also includes quotes from SA government spokespeople, who say that the ARV link to Whoonga is an invention of the media, or at least a myth that is being perpetuated by the media.
http://www.plusnews.org/report.aspx?Reportid=91880
Can someone please add this information to the main article? It's important that the "Whoonga has ARVs" myth be debunked.
Let us remember that whoonga, whatever it is, is most certainly not a standardized product. Anyone producing illegal drugs who learns that some addicts are turning to a product called "whoonga" might well decide to start producing something or other and start pushing it as "whoonga" without worrying about whether it has anything in common whatsoever with the product someone else is producing. It's not a regulated market, gang! So, the fact that a particular sample of something that someone called "whoonga" has one set of ingredients doesn't mean that what someone else is calling "whoonga" might not have a quite different set of ingredients. It may be like gumbo--lots of cooks make it lots of different ways, but everybody calls it the same thing.
Also, let's remember that just because a whoonga producer puts in Ingredient X doesn't mean that Ingredient X is the source of the addictive action of the drug. Just because a South African police official dismisses it as "merely heroin" doesn't mean it isn't just as dangerous and just as destructive to addict's lives as ever. Poihths (talk) 22:08, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
--
As I am sure is obvious, I am not experienced at creating Wikipedia articles. Given the importance of this subject as a new threat in the world of addictive drugs and as a new obstacle to HIV treatment, I hope others will contribute material and formatting to advance and improve the material.
The searchbot seems to have decided that an article about the revenue streams of the World Cup has been copied in this article about addictive drugs. I think the searchbot needs work.
* the canadian news broadcast (already in the article) contains similar information, I will rewrite the article somewhat in the next days based on those 2 sources.--Kmhkmh (talk) 13:19, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
Fake?
I can only find a very small handful of reports about it. A news report here, a website there. All with the same info. And nothing official, such as a south African govt. or UN press release. I feel we should delete this, as it seems to be a hoax, similar to the jenkem in america reports. Theres also no report of an active ingredient, which would be something a rehab clinic would have to know in order to combat addiction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 22:19, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
* And you'll notice the reports tend to largely be duplicates of each other rather than containing any genuine investigative material. A lot of wild claims and references to alleged experts, but very short of verifiable facts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 06:08, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
Unfortunately not a fake.
The reason why this is not widely reported is that it is a new phenomenon. AS for the alleged lack of report of active ingredients, the poster has not understood the material; the ingredients are clearly identified. The references supplied are to published reports by solid news organizations, not fly-by-night blog entries or free-floating email chains. In my opinion, the preceding anonymous accusation that this story is a fake is injurious to truth and should be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Poihths (talk • contribs) 15:16, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
* No reason to delete anything. The fake suspicion was a valid question at the time and not an insult or harmful to the project, hence there is nothing to delete. In the mean time the sourcing has been improved somewhat, so that the fake concerns have been resolved. However it still might desirable to add academic medical sources over time, once they become available to anybody here.--Kmhkmh (talk) 19:08, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
* Actually still valid. A newspaper is not a valid source of scientific verification. They regularly misrepresent or exaggerate. The article itself should note that much of it is based on news reports and not verified information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 05:41, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
* Whoonga is obviously not fake (i.e. the claim is not valid) and that is of course verified (you don't need a scientific publication to confirm that there's a drug dubbed whoonga in SA). What is subject to debate is the exact nature of whoonga and whether whoonga is a fake in the sense of not being a new drug. However that is different from being a fake in WP. A fake in WP means somebody invented something in WP, but a WP article about a (real world) fake is not fake (in WP). And the news reports show us that "whoonga" was obviously not an invention by a WP editor. The fact that whoonga fakes to be a new drug is a fact that belongs the WP article, but it doesn't make the WP article a fake itself.--Kmhkmh (talk) 11:06, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
Not fake.
The drug is not fake it is there in the Townships, particularly in KwaZulu-Natal. I may not know all the scientific details but I that more and more people are starting to use it now. If you want know more about the drug. The government has not done anything yet, and they won’t do anything until it’s too late. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sibusiso87rn (talk • contribs) 07:12, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
We do not need this
Whoonga lies
But still no truth.
About those ARVs are they Entry/fusion inhibitors, Reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RTIs), Integrase inhibitors, Maturation inhibitors, Protease Inhibitors (PI) or Combined formulations like Combivir, Atripla, Trizivir, Truvada, Kaletra or Epzicom?
With regard to the household detergents are they Anionic detergents, Cationic detergents, Ethoxylates or Non-ionic (or zwitterionic) detergents?
Because these people
http://www.whoonga.za.org/ whose bullshit tour is now going to make some stops
wikipedia, aljazeera, etv, sabc
would have us believe thus:
* "Whoonga is a new killer drug that has hit South Africa...
* The Drug is designed to keep you hooked and addicted to it; one smoke is all it takes..."
OH MY GOD! What happened to reality?
Household Detergents are addictive? I thought they were designed to clean...
ARVs are addictive? I thought they were designed to slow replication...
Rat_poison is addictive? I thought it was designed to kill rats...
Their chemical composition and efficacy changes when combusted and added in a designed fashion to turn you into an addict?
No Come on! pull the other leg...
I make my point once more.
These things: rat poison, household detergents, ARVs are merely bulking agents[cut with not MADE with] - what is the addictive part?
Whoonga is an addictive recreational drug...
What is the most addictive drug on the scale? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Drug_danger_and_dependence.png http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Rational_scale_to_assess_the_harm_of_drugs_(mean_physical_harm_and_mean_dependence).svg
Is it IN RED? Is it household detergents? Is it ARVs? Is it rat_poison?
If you insist on continuing this deviancy amplification spiral with bullshit, and not mention that RED LETTER Word.
Let me at least spell it out for you;
That thing; that thing that is almost instantly addictive, that substance… is Heroin. [Please tell the truth about drugs; always]
Tell me what does this sound like to you?
Withdrawal symptoms reportedly involve both craving and pain, which are temporarily relieved by fresh doses of the drug.
yup that must be the ARV's HIV patients often claim withdrawal, so do housewives when they haven't touched household detergents for a week, rat-poison well that's a hard one to give up...
COME ON - the OP ed removed the drug / harm scale because this new drug isn't on there?
Local Etymology suggests that Whoonga is Unga,Ungah, Umga and from the [| withdrawal] symptoms and instant addiction honestly makes it seem like the main ingredient is Heroin and the rest of the reported ingredients are bulking agents... no more
--Kmhkmh - I expect those medical records will start becoming apparent, if what I suspect is Heroin, in a year or so when Heroin addicted babies start being born
—Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 19:52, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
* Nobody, in particular not this article claims that detergents or rat poison are addictive by themselves. The claim is that whoonga is addictive (for whatever reasons) and that's based on news reports.
* Whatever you you want to add here needs to be sourced. What your personal "logic dictates" has no place in the article since it is your personal opinion and without sources that has in particular due to WP:NPOV and WP:OR no place in WP. Nevermind the fact that strictly speaking your logic is not quite accurate either (it is not always that easy to predict the effects of mixed/combined chemical substances).
* Having said I agree that some skepticism towards those (preliminary) new reports is surely warranted, nevertheless personal skepticism doesn't suffice as a base for added conntent, you need sources.
* As far as your graphic was concerned, I removed that because whoonga is not on it and that marihuana might be the (only) addictive compment of that odd whoonga mix is pure speculation, i.e. that graphic can be used in articles about heroine, marihunana, mescalin, etc., i.e. for all those drugs that are actually on it, but not here.--Kmhkmh (talk) 23:16, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
OK WP:NPOV I get it.
* The News reporting on this drug certainly is not asking the right questions. In South Africa it is particularly bad, all following the same theme and this is my concern. Fact, truth and of course scientific evidence is lacking. No one so far has even seized and tested 'whoonga'.
* No Chemist, Medical Control Council official, Drug researcher, Drug policy official, forensics official or anyone outside of a nurse reporting on ARV theft has actually spoken on whoonga, however the Deviancy amplification spiral continues.
* I don't know what logic has to say about the ability of the uneducated rural / township person's ability to chemically concoct / invent an 'addictive recreational drug' Whoonga, with household detergents, rat poison and ARVs.
* You will also note that the NEWS reporting is following the http://www.whoonga.za.org/ spin. Again there is no local SA TV NEWS coverage available on youtube to show my point.
* Also it would be good to note Whoonga had not made local news till 17 November 2010. Unga has been around since 2008. There are 11 Languages of South Africa. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 06:27, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
* The article is currently not claiming any scientific facts regarding the drug, it merely reports the preliminary use about (what it is, where it is used and what effects are reported) - not more not less. Once detailed medical studies and analysis' become available their result can be added. I'm gettung the impression you are reading more into the article than it actually claims.--Kmhkmh (talk) 07:13, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
I need to correct myself as to when the whoonga story first made the press it was in fact 26 October 2010; however in my defense etv NEWS still reported the drug in question as sugars till 17 November 2010. My interest in this story started when I noticed the drug changed 3 days into reporting on the incident.
I have tried to back trace the beginning of the Deviancy amplification spiral and drug reporting in the Shongweni incident.
26 October 2010 Daily Sun reports Sugars a mixture of cocaine and dagga [cannabis] as the drug in question. 27 October 2010 TimesLive reports Whoonga as the drug in question 28 November 2010 IOL reports on the name change; The National police Commissioner General Bheki Cele joins the arguments with the Hawks and drug experts
* Experts say whoonga is just a new name for sugars.
“We discovered about a year ago that the sugars drug had its name changed. Whoonga is not a new drug; it is sugars being sold under a different name, a rebranding,” said Dr Anwar Jeewa, a drug expert and head of the Minds Alive drug rehabilitation centre.
“There has been a lot of confusion recently, with some saying that whoonga is anti-retroviral medication crushed and smoked in a dagga joint.”
“The media has made a fuss about the new drug on the streets, panicking people and worrying the government. But it’s not new,” the SAPS’s Colonel Jay Naicker said.
Idris*, a former drug dealer, confirmed this. “Whoonga is sugars. It’s the same thing, just a different name,” he said.
While a typical whoonga concoction includes brown heroin, rat poison and ammonia, some distributors are now said to be adding tik, or methamphetamine, to the mix.
* “The drug dealers add all sorts of stuff to the heroin, the primary ingredient, just to increase the mass of the drug when it’s sold and make the heroin go further. A lot of the stuff has no effect and users have no idea what’s going in,” said a member of the police’s Organised Crime Unit. - IOL - Whoonga Whammy —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 20:53, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
The NEWS however is still in the Deviancy amplification spiral —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 21:02, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
Those reports - reporting only dagga as the base drug, are questionable. The only reason dagga is used to smoke it, is because it is cheaper than cigarettes. Kinda like arguing that heroin was used to bulk the washing powder, and ARVs... —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 16:29, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
* Alright the IOL article is a useful source and valuable addition to the article. With that you can source most of the claim you wanted to integrate into the article.--Kmhkmh (talk) 21:04, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
New edit is continuing the lie.
--<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 16:55, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
No one questions what dagga is. It is by no means the base / primary drug of whoonga.
The primary Ingredient as confirmed by the South African Police Service is HEROIN.
please can we discuss this obvious lie.
when you buy Whoonga on the street you don't get dagga with it, or mixed in the R20 - R30 hit, or part of the same straw that delivers whoonga
* You need to dial it down a notch. There is no lie in the article but it just summarizes the press reports. If you read it carefully then you'll see that it doesn't really contradict your point of view anyway.
* Also please get yourself familiar with the style guide (WP:MOS). Bold print is usually only used for the subject's name and not for arbitrary text pieces in the article. External sources are not directly linked in the article text, but placed in the form of footnotes or listed in the references section. Similarly explanatory notes to article's content do belong into footnotes.
* --Kmhkmh (talk) 21:00, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
Great with wiki's rules - great with wiki. This argument means nothing to the man on whoonga, or the 14 yr old raped girl, or the dead.
My concern is; dagga / cannabis / marijuana is a plant. We all know what that is. It is not sold as part of or part of the concoction of whoonga.
This line: Some reports mention only dagga (marihuana) as the base drug.
Is a lie!
Whoonga does not have dagga in it's chemical composition - am I not getting this through. The brown white powder has no dagga in it when bought from the dealer.
A correct version of that line would read: Some reports only mention ARVs as the base drug, also stating that Whoonga is smoked with dagga.
I don't think it arbitrary that the giraffe is being identified as an elephant based on a foreign journalists sensationalist piece focusing on one user, then summarized to a point that it now forms PART of the drug.
Yet the SAPS statement gets less weight although it contains all the truth.
Whoonga is Heroin. Cut with; not made with... arvs rat poison detergents. Smoked with; not made with dagga
so when wiki says - dagga is a base drug of whoonga. Then I claim it is a further misrepresentation of the truth, a lie, regarding a drug that by no misunderstanding is having a terrible effect on our society.
It is unscientific to combine two drugs into one then ascribe the effects of the one on the other, South Africa has suffered this more than once. Note how Agriculture research by ARC gets confused between a plant they are researching and Methaqualone
If I'm going game hunting I want to correctly identify the predators and not shoot the giraffe when the lion is on my back.
Misidentification of this drug has misdirected the fight against it. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 04:59, 7 December 2010 (UTC)WhoongaISheroin
I'll try... learn but I can't assume good faith wrt whoonga; the implications are too great <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 04:46, 7 December 2010 (UTC)WhoongaISheroin
* This is an encyclopedic article and not website or information sheet for an antidrug campaign. That some sources only mention dagga is not a lie, but a fact (read those sources, it's all in the article). That doesn't mean that those sources are correct, which is explained in our article as well. However at this stage with the given sources I don't think we shouldn't make any strong claims that are not supported by the sources overall yet, in particular since the exact ingredients of whoonga seemed to be somewhat of a moving target. I agree that heroin looks like the most likely scenario to explain the claimed addictive properties, however crystal meth which seems to added as well in some cases at least can cause a similar addiction.
* In any case we have to stick with what the sources here. When we get newer more reliable/reputable sources providing an in depth medical analysis of the drug then we can add that and probably drop "false" information from preliminary news reports. Ideally such more reoutable sources would be some academic/scientific publications, but so far all sources are just articles from news outlets without any real in depth analysis and I see no good reason to restrict the article's content to the information given by a particular news outlet.--Kmhkmh (talk) 05:38, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
OK - I did read those articles, (and in the Aljezeera report you see the user add the Whoonga to the dagga, clearly they are two different things one is a powder the other vegetable matter)the other article is very clear "addicts used dagga as a base, which was mixed with whoonga into a cigarette and smoked". That is very different to dagga being the base drug of whoonga. The one reflects the method of consumption; the summary implies that Whoonga is made of dagga and other ingredients. Which is NOT what those reports describe. thanx for engaging the topic Kmhkmh <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 05:50, 7 December 2010 (UTC)WhoongaISheroin
* Actually if you read all sources carefully, you'll see that there even more than those 2 that only mention dagga (as the only known traditional drug in the mix) and while the al jazeera report shows a user putting powder on a dagga and then rolling into a cigarette, the reporter explicitly says, that whoonga is a mix of dagga, rat poison, detergents and aids medication.
* As I said I agree that heroin the most likely base ingredient and the IOL article probably the most accurate, it is however at this point not what all the sources say and that's exactly why I chose the description as given in the article.
* Also you can get from the sources, that the term whoonga is used in a somewhat imprecise manner. Some sources/people call whoonga the final joint and whatever is in it (i.e. powder + dagga) while others call only the powder whoonga and consider the joint as a mix of dagga and whoonga.

In coercion
At the end point of the Shongweni massacre, the man involved says the police coerced him into a confession. Although he has still not been charged.

I can't edit this in; it would kill me
the department of health issuing a statement saying "Whoonga is a highly addictive mixture containing stocrin, dagga, Strepsils and rat poison." - Politicsweb

Why Wiki has to get it right
Soweto men caught selling new Aids dope:
Whoonga, according to online encyclopaedia Wikipedia, is a mixture of antiretroviral medicine, drugs such as heroin or dagga, powdered detergent and rat poison. - Sowetan
and a new name: nyaope - a lethal mixture of heroine and dagga.
I have no idea how to add this - or to put it in context. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 16:24, 25 January 2011 (UTC)WhoongaISheroin
* It is already in the text, there's no need for adding redundant sources. Additional sources are only needed if they provide new information or if they are considered (significantly) more reliable/reputable than the old ones.
* Also it doesn't make sense to include every single whoonga related incident or drug bust, i.e. the article should concentrate to summarizes the most important knowledge about whoonga (things like: what is it made of, effects of its use on society or individuals, distribution/availability)--Kmhkmh (talk) 17:28, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
The 1st one is only relevant because it's comes from the department of health; strepsils is a new addition and from such a source I thought it might be relevant. Nayope which from my perspective is the same as sugars,Whoonga,Umya and Unga - Heroin smoked with dagga.

Durban - The notorious township drug, whoonga, does not contain anti-retroviral drugs, says President Jacob Zuma.
"Perpetuating such inaccuracies is dangerous as it may make drug addicts steal ARVs, which would put the lives of people on treatment at risk," said Zuma at the opening of the second biennial summit on substance abuse.
Many people believe whoonga is made of crushed HIV treatment drugs, mixed with other chemicals, but according to experts at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, whoonga does not contain ARVs, but is made up of heroin mixed with rat poison and other chemicals. 7thSpace <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 15:48, 15 March 2011 (UTC)WhoongaISheroin

It would be very, very useful if those who wish to deny that whoonga exists, or who wish to deny reports of what it is made of, or wish to deny whatever else they wish to deny, would do so using normal Wikipedia standards: namely, presentation of verifiable information, specific verifiable references that support their point of view. Very few of the so-called contributions to this talk page do so; most consist of nothing by argumentation from doubt, or even just pure rant. Let's ratchet it up a notch.

Nyaope is not called 'whoonga'

How to get the path of the WEB-INF or any folder under it in Struts
You may have a folder for resources under the WEB-INF of your Struts application or even any Java web application. For example if you have a folder called "resources" which is under the WEB-INF and you would like to retrieve the absolute path so you can read or write on it. You can do this by:-
First: Get the ServletContext through the ServletActionContext.getServletContext().
ServletContext servletContext = ServletActionContext.getServletContext();
Second: Get the path of the WEB-INF or the "resources" folder.
//path of the Web Content
String path1 = servletContext.getRealPath("");
//path of the WEB-INF
String path2 = servletContext.getRealPath("/WEB-INF");
//path of the folder "resources" under the WEB-INF
String path3 = servletContext.getRealPath("/WEB-INF/resources");
The good thing is that the ServletContext is an interface in Java web API which means that there should be an implementation for this interface by all the vendors unless you are accessing a servlet on a remote system not on the local system of your application.

Draft:Lee Han-byeol
Lee Han-byeol (March 18, 1992) is a South Korean actress and model known for her leading role in the Netflix original Korean drama series Mask Girl (2023).
Personal life
Lee Han-byeol was born on March 18, 1992 in Gumi, North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea. She attended university, studying fashion.
She is a multidisciplinary artist who, aside from acting, formerly held a career in the fashion industry and continues to maintain an independent artistic output, posting visual art including paintings, digital art, and film photographs to her two Instagram accounts. She has cited influence and inspiration from fashion designer John Galliano, conceptual artist Marina Abramovic, and films such as Moonlit Winter.
Pre-debut
Lee Han-byeol originally studied fashion in university and subsequently pursued a career in the fashion industry before pivoting toward acting in her late 20s.
Debut and Mask Girl
In an intentional move to create drama around the show, no information was revealed about Lee Han-byeol ahead of the release of Mask Girl except that she was a first-time actress. Two days before the release of the show on Netflix, her identity was revealed as she appeared in public for the first time at a promotional press conference for the show alongside her well-established costars Go Hyun-jung and Nana, whose hand she could be seen clutching nervously. It was said by JoongAng Ilbo that she beat 1,000 to 1 odds to be cast in the Netflix original drama, garnering immediate attention as an actress "with no unknown days," referring to her rare case of having landed a leading role without having to first gain notoriety as a supporting actress. A press release, posted via Naver on the day of the release of Mask Girl, stated that she would be signing to the Ace Factory entertainment agency.
Following the release of Mask Girl, she received high praise in an interview given by series director Kim Young-hoon, stating, “Even though this is her debut show, she is so good at analyzing the script and would give very instinctive performances, which is very bold for a newcomer. She is really a genius at acting." She won the “Best New Actress” award at the 2023 APAN Star Awards for her work in Mask Girl. Lee Han-byeol also began modeling following the release of the drama, shooting pictorials with both Harper's Bazaar Korea and Korean lifestyle magazine Singles. In March of 2024, she was also awarded the "New Actress of the Year (Series)" award at the 22nd Director's Cut Awards for her work in Mask Girl. | WIKI |

Description#
Forget JHotDraw folks... I just found JGraphpad and it ROCKS! This plugin is still on my radar screen, I've been busy at work, and I'm jazzed about JGraphpad in general. Really slick, really well done. Bravo to them!!!
A JGraphpad based applet is central to this plugin, drawing data storage done as files attached to a special page named DrawingFiles thus leveragin file attachment versioning and keeping pages smaller as well as allowing the same drawing to be shown on multiple pages without duplication.
Actually two related plugins:
• DrawingPlugin Defines a drawing, view or link to it. View inlines the image, Link generated a hyperlink that would open the editor.
• ListDrawingsPlugin Generates a list of all drawings that exist.
Proposed Syntax#
• [{DrawingPlugin name=foobar action=( view | link)}]
• [{ListDrawingsPlugin}]
Drawing Plugin Generated HTML#
<br/>
<img src='imageUrl'/><br/>
<a 'appletLaunch'>Edit</a> - Last changed on 'lastEditDate' by 'lastEditUser'.<br/>
Possibly the img to have an image hotspot map? so individual drawing elements can act as hyperlinks?
List Drawings Plugin Generated HTML#
<ul>
<li><a 'appletLaunch'>'drawingName'</a> - 'drawingDescription'</li>
...
</ul>
For cataloguing what exists in a nice summary form.

1. Other authors: Bertrand Delacretaz, JanneJalkanen, ebu
1. A proposal for a DrawingPlugin, and...
2. A consensus(?) that using attachments to store the image data would be better than keeping image data 'inline' in the page.
2. Bertands link above lead me to http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=GraphicalWikiDream need to read and digest ideas... Later, lots of outlinks nothing that is immediatly useful though... Planning to proceed with JGraphpad as editor (SVG stuff too weird and goofy!)
Discussions#
Could it be done inline, meaning embedded in the page rather than in a separate applet? I'm thinking for doing something similar to PowerPoint and for UML diagrams. Having to invoke an external editor might not be liked by users. Or would it be possible for some wiki pages to be applets that mimic normal wikiness, but allow extended functionality? Don't know, but i have been thinking lately to make a true editable web of information richer content has to be supported. We have people that do diagrams, do ppt, but none of it stays linked together. Imagine a high level design that was in wiki, contained diagrams, and remained link to the source, etc.

An Attractive ETF Strategy for Income Investors in Today’s Market
Investors who are seeking yield generation opportunities should consider the benefits of incorporating preferred securities and related exchange traded funds into a traditional income portfolio.
In the recent webcast, How Preferred Securities can offer attractive yield and risk management, Seema Shah, managing director and chief strategist at Principal Global Investors; Matthew Cohen, head of ETF specialist team at Principal Global Investors; and James Hodapp, senior vice president and portfolio specialist at Spectrum Asset Management, underscored the struggles in the fixed income market environment that remain choppy, and how investors are looking for ways to diversify their yield-generation capabilities. Consequently, more are considering alternative income strategies, such as preferred stocks, which offer consistent income and could help manage risk.
The global economy is under stress as elevated commodity prices, notably soaring energy costs, have contributed to heightened inflationary pressures. While U.S. consumers have seen their energy costs rise, Europe is facing a much harsher winter ahead in face of the surging heating costs.
Nevertheless, the strategists warned that the U.S. economy faces a more brittle outlook ahead with households and companies struggling under the weight of ongoing inflationary pressures. The strategists predict that while inflation may have peaked already, inflation will remain relentless and stay uncomfortably high, further fueling uncertainty in the Federal Reserve's monetary policy trajectory.
The Fed has already hiked interest rates as much in four months as it did in three years between 2015 to 2018. Additionally, we are likely to see another 75 basis point interest rate hike in the upcoming meeting with inflation stubbornly high as Fed officials are seeking price stability above all else, even at the cost of economic weakness.
Consequently, the strategists warned that financial conditions will continue to tighten, with equity and credit markets likely facing considerable further strain.
In this type of environment, investors may consider something like the Principal Spectrum Preferred Securities Active ETF (NYSEArca: PREF), which can act as a portfolio diversification tool and correlation reducer. Another advantage of PREF’s active management is that the managers can take advantage of value opportunities in an asset class that has been expanded over the past few years. Lack of constraint to an index is a relevant advantage because PREF’s managers can eschew issuers with shaky financial profiles while focusing on those most likely to make good on dividend payments.
Preferred securities’ risk profile also looks more like investment-grade credit based on their default rates. Consequently, preferreds offer a comparable yield to speculative-grade debt but with less credit risk than high-yield bonds. Among Morningstar peer groups, preferreds offer competitive yield relative to risk.
Furthermore, Spectrum targets credit quality through a top-down and bottom-up process that scores relative credit quality to reduce credit risk. The firm actively manages towards lower aggregate call risk on preferred securities by reducing exposure to overpriced call options that can lead to negative yield horizons. Lastly, they focus on securities with adjustable-rate coupons and high forward reset spreads, where negative convexity is a significantly lesser risk, to help better manage interest rate risk.
Investors will commonly target high-quality, institutional $1,000 par preferred securities when investing in the Principal Spectrum Preferred Securities Active ETF. The ETF seeks to enhance risk/return profiles by complementing high-yield exposure and delivering tax-advantaged income potential by complementing muni exposure.

What to Do With a Lost USB Stick
As people, most of us have an innate instinct to try to help others. We’re also quite curious. As a result, finding a USB stick “out in the wild” can get various responses from us. If you work in a tech field and your employees have access to computers, some of these impulses can be dangerous. You can find a lost USB stick anywhere, after all. Drycleaners report finding thousands of them every year; they get left behind at transit stations… And you can even find them lying around in the street, on benches… Everywhere. Like they’re falling from the sky.
People are good at losing things, after all. Think about how essential your phone is. Now consider that 70 million phones go missing every single year. Since only about 7% of those phones make it back home, it’s natural to pick up something lost. With a lost phone, most people will try calling it to see who picks it up. This can help people find a lost phone. A USB stick, by comparison, is just a storage device. Most of them don’t have any tracking feature. The only way to find who owns it may be to open it with a computer and look for clues.
But should you really do that?
A Lost USB Stick is Extremely Dangerous
No matter how noble your intentions may be, it is not worth the risk. Many USB sticks that people carry lack any sort of identifying information if they’re being used for a legitimate purpose. More likely, you might find movies or music or homework in progress – If you’re lucky. In recent years the more likely case is that you’ll lose control of your computer.
2010’s Stuxnet case is a clear example. Hackers placed malicious code into USB drives and left them near factories, data centers, etc. Then employees found the USB sticks and put them in their computers. This inadvertently gave hackers access to computers at nuclear refineries. If it can happen at such secure facilities, it can probably happen to your business.
Even lower-profile attacks can be dangerous. For example, malware is easy to inject into USB sticks, and it runs automatically when plugged into a computer. The technique is so common that some companies use dummy USB sticks to test employee savviness.
What Should You Do If You Find a USB Stick?
There are very few safe ways to handle a wild USB stick. You should leave them with a lost and found, discard them, or leave them with the police department. No computer with a drive with read/write capabilities should load an unknown USB stick. A computer running a Linux operating system from a read-only DVD could potentially view files safely… But there are still risks involved as more malware targets less common operating systems.
You might have gathered that this would be a very technical job. Considering how hard it would be to reunite a USB stick with its owner and how much data you could potentially lose, it isn’t worth it. It isn’t worth the work it would take to access a USB stick safely, nor is it worth the risk to plug it in.
Visit our website to learn more about the potential risks of unknown software. If you feel that your employees would be likely to plug in an unfamiliar USB, call us. We can help arrange a training program to protect your company.

New bill proposes national commission on digital security
Congress is starting to address the legal fight between Apple and the FBI. A bill introduced today would create a "National Commission on Security and Technology Challenges," assembling experts from the technology and law enforcement communities to produce a report on encryption policy. It's a long way from anything legally binding for either Apple or the FBI, but the commission could provide a crucial starting point for future legislative action on the issues currently faced by the courts. "Technology companies and law enforcement both have raised serious public policy questions," said Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA), who co-sponsored the bill. "It’s time to work together." The bill was introduced by Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) and Senator Mark Warner (D-VA). The commission is strikingly similar to a measure endorsed by Apple CEO Tim Cook in a letter to Apple employees on February 22nd. As Cook wrote at the time: Congress is also facing growing pressure from within the government to address the issue. On Monday, New York Magistrate Judge James Orenstein rejected an FBI request similar to the San Bernardino order, explicitly calling for congressional debate on the issue. The debate over law enforcement access "must take place among legislators who are equipped to consider the technological and cultural realities of a world their predecessors could not begin to conceive," Orenstein wrote. "It would betray our constitutional heritage and our people's claim to democratic governance for a judge to pretend that our Founders already had that debate, and ended it, in 1789." | NEWS-MULTISOURCE |
Geographic Tongue Treatment
Geographic tongue, also known as ‘benign migratory glossitis’, is an inflammatory condition that presides on the tongue and that affects around 2% of the general population.
The main symptom is discoloration of the taste buds, along with sometimes cracks in the tongue. These protrusions are called ‘papillae’ and appear across the top of the tongue as red patches with grayish white blotches. This is a chronic condition which tends to lie dormant and then present itself after consumption of exacerbating foods. Other things that can cause an outburst are hormonal imbalances (such as during pregnancy or menstruation) and times of stress or illness when the immune system is low. Here we will look at treatments available for geographic tongue.
Geographic Tongue Causes
The discoloration of the tongue is caused by clusters of papillae – they are missing where the area is red and overcrowded where the tongue is white (discoloration can also be caused by yeast infection). Often the patches will disappear and reappear several times within a few hours or days. There is not normally pain, though in some cases it might lead to burning or stinging and can be sensitive to touch.
The reason for these clusters of papillae however are not fully understood. There is a familial link suggesting a genetic basis and some genes have been implicated in the condition. This is not conclusive however as familial links might be based on similar diets rather than genetics. It is more common in those with other allergies, eczema and asthma. Suggested causes are stress and high sugar diets. Other suggested causes are vitamin B deficiency, allergies and hormone imbalances.
Diet
Diet then certainly plays some role in the problem. Someone with geographic tongue might benefit from having their blood tested for vitamin B deficiency and then increasing their consumption of the vitamin if one is fond. Zinc supplementation has also been found to be effective and others get relief from chewing on mint and sucking mint candies during and after a flare up.
While it is not a treatment, one way to prevent the problem is to avoid exacerbating foods. These can vary but commonly include:
• Tomato
• Eggplant
• Walnut
• Spicy food
• Strong cheese
• Sour food
• Mint
• Candy
• Citrus
• Mouth washes
Other Treatments
There is no known cure for geographic tongue and management normally consists of switching to the recommended diet. However other temporary treatments can include the topical application of steroid ointment which can treat the symptoms temporarily. Where there is pain, antihistamines have been shown to be effective in reducing burning (perhaps implicating allergic reaction?). In most cases however the condition is asymptomatic and manageable without treatment.

1. Colloidal silver instantly stops the pain of my geographic tongue. It will clear up the yeast on my tongue in the morning from my inhalers also. I have had this since childhood. I am 57 now. Other foods that exacerbate the condition are pineapple, cinnamon gum, pecans, sometimes even sunflower seeds. It has gotten worse as I have aged. Gonna stop that now with prayer, lol!
2. The article writer is pessimistic about curing GT just like all medical doctors, there are thousands of claims that people cured themselves after they have been advised by their doctors not to keep searching for a cure. I'm dropping a link here, please read the posts, thank you.

Abstract
Background: Dairy foods and their constituents (lactose and calcium) have been hypothesized to promote ovarian carcinogenesis. Although case-control studies have reported conflicting results for dairy foods and lactose, several cohort studies have shown positive associations between skim milk, lactose, and ovarian cancer. Methods: A pooled analysis of the primary data from 12 prospective cohort studies was conducted. The study population consisted of 553,217 women among whom 2,132 epithelial ovarian cases were identified. Study-specific relative risks and 95% confidence intervals were calculated by Cox proportional hazards models and then pooled by a random-effects model. Results: No statistically significant associations were observed between intakes of milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream, and dietary and total calcium intake and risk of ovarian cancer. Higher lactose intakes comparing ≥30 versus <10 g/d were associated with a statistically significant higher risk of ovarian cancer, although the trend was not statistically significant (pooled multivariate relative risk, 1.19; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.40; P trend = 0.19). Associations for endometrioid, mucinous, and serous ovarian cancer were similar to the overall findings. Discussion: Overall, no associations were observed for intakes of specific dairy foods or calcium and ovarian cancer risk. A modest elevation in the risk of ovarian cancer was seen for lactose intake at the level that was equivalent to three or more servings of milk per day. Because a new dietary guideline recommends two to three servings of dairy products per day, the relation between dairy product consumption and ovarian cancer risk at these consumption levels deserves further examination.

Java Tip: Hibernate validation in a standalone implementation
Implement a consolidated validation strategy with Hibernate Validator
A good data validation strategy is an important part of every application development project. Being able to consolidate and generalize validation using a proven framework can significantly improve the reliability of your software, especially over time.
Whereas unstructured and uncontrolled validation policies will lead to increased support and maintenance costs, a consolidated validation strategy can significantly minimize the cascade effect of changes to your code base. A validation layer can also be a very useful tool for some types of debugging.
I recently needed to implement a lightweight validation framework for a project. I discovered Hibernate Validator, an open source project from JBoss. The framework impressed me with its simplicity and flexibility, so I am introducing it with this Java Tip. I'll share my experience with setting up and using Hibernate Validator, with simple use cases that demonstrate key features such as declarative annotations, composite validation rules, and selective validation.
Getting started with Hibernate Validator
Hibernate Validator provides a solid foundation for building lightweight, flexible validation code for Java SE and Java EE applications. Hibernate Validator is supported by a number of popular frameworks, but its libraries can also be used in a standalone implementation. Standalone Java SE validation components can become an integral part of any complex heterogeneous server-side application. In order to follow this introduction to using Hibernate Validator to build a standalone component, you will need to have JDK 6 or higher installed. All use cases in the article are built using Validator version 5.0.3. You should download the Hibernate Validator 5.0.x binary distribution package, where directory \hibernate-validator-5.0.x.Final\dist contains all the binaries required for standalone implementation.
Download the source code for the Hibernate Validator demos used in this article.
Created by Victoria Farber for JavaWorld.
Listing 1 shows a fragment of the Ant-built script where all binary dependencies, selected for the standalone implementation, are listed under the manifest section. The metainf section is required if externalized metadata validation will be used in the implementation. As a result of the Ant build the final JAR will reference all dependent Validator JARs through the Class-Path header of the manifest file.
Listing 1. Manifest section of the Ant build with dependencies
...
<manifest>
<attribute name="Built-By" value="${user.name}" />
<attribute name="Main-Class" value="com.val.utils.ValidationUtility" />
<attribute name="Class-Path" value="lib/hibernate-validator-cdi-5.0.3.Final.jar lib/hibernate-validator-5.0.3.Final.jar lib/hibernate-validator-annotation-processor-5.0.3.Final.jar lib/validation-api-1.1.0.Final.jar lib/classmate-1.0.0.jar lib/javax.el-2.2.4.jar lib/javax.el-api-2.2.4.jar lib/jboss-logging-3.1.1.GA.jar lib/log4j-1.2.17.jar ." />
</manifest>
<metainf dir="${workspace_project_path}/Meta-inf" includes="*.xml" />
...
Declarative annotation and constraint definition
Hibernate Validator 5.0.x is the open source reference implementation of JSR 349: Bean Validation 1.1. Declarative annotation and constraint definition are two highlights of the updated Bean Validation 1.1 framework. Expressing validation rules through a declarative syntax greatly improves the readability of the code, as shown in Listing 2.
Listing 2. Declarative annotations in Hibernate Validator
public class Address {
@NotBlank
private String addresseeName;
...
@NotBlank
@Pattern(regexp = "[A-Za-z]\\d[A-Za-z]\\s?\\d[A-Za-z]\\d", message = "Postal code validation failed.")
private String postalCode;
@NotBlank
private String municipality;
@NotBlank
@Pattern(regexp = "AB|BC|MB|NB|NL|NT|NS|NU|ON|PE|QC|SK|YT", message = "Province code validation failed.")
private String province;
...
Declarative validation on method parameters clearly define preconditions, improving the overall readability of the code. Business rules are much easier to digest because you only need to look at field, method, and class annotations. The declarative style removes the need to build a model of execution, consider state transitions, and analyze post-conditions and preconditions while learning the code.
Constraints can be applied to a composition of objects by using @Valid annotation. In Listing 2, @Valid is used to apply validation to a graph of dependent beans, enforcing simple validation rules and complex dependency constraints.
Listing 3. Validation rules applied to a composition of objects
abstract public class LetterTemplate {
...
@NotEmpty( groups = LetterTemplateChecks.class,
payload = ValidationSeverity.Error.class )
@Valid
private List<Paragraph> content;
...
Supported validation targets are not restricted to data only: it is possible to apply constraints to bean properties get methods, method parameters, and constructors.
Composite validation rules
Readability and flexibility don't always work nicely together in source code; in fact they often compete. Hibernate Validator demonstrates a setup where these two characteristics can actually complement each other. For example, Hibernate Validator supports compositions of annotations. The framework supports compositions of constraints and provides syntactical constructs representing OR, AND, and ALL_FALSE validation semantics. The OR composition offers stereotypes to skip validation on empty or null fields and is helpful when there is a need to declare validation for incomplete or optional data.
In Listing 4, Hibernate Validator's @Pattern annotation is converted into an optional validation rule using annotation composition syntax.
Listing 4. Custom annotation declaration for defining OR type constraints (null or numeric field that cannot start with 0)
@ConstraintComposition(CompositionType.OR)
@Null(message = "")
@Pattern(regexp = "[1-9]\\d*")
@Target( { ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.FIELD })
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Constraint(validatedBy = {})
@ReportAsSingleViolation
@Documented
public @interface NullOrNumber {
String message() default "Validation for an optional numeric field failed.";
Class<?>[] groups() default {};
Class<? extends Payload>[] payload() default { };
}
Listing 5 demonstrates the use of the custom composite annotation on the optional postal box property of the Address object.
Listing 5. Declaring a validation rule where the property can be either null or a number
public class Address {
...
// Optional field defining PO box
@NullOrNumber
private String poBoxNumber;
...
Classifying validation rules
Hibernate Validator lets developers classify validation rules. This means, for example, that you could associate a different runtime strategy with varying levels of failure. The framework supports an annotation payload attribute, which can be used in combination with Java marker interfaces to classify validation rules. You can also link the severity of validation failures with different levels of logging severity, where the logging strategy is configurable at runtime. Consider the simplest possible classification, where the validation rules are associated with non-recoverable errors or warnings.
Listing 6. Marker payload interfaces defined for classification
public class ValidationSeverity {
public interface Error extends Payload {
}
public interface Warning extends Payload {
}
}
In Listing 6, the ValidationSeverity interface class is used as a parameter in a validation-rule declaration. You could use the same technique for custom annotations:
Listing 7. Marking validation constraints as errors or warnings
public class MailLetterTemplate extends LetterTemplate {
@NotNull ( payload = ValidationSeverity.Warning.class)
private Address returnAddress;
@NotNull (payload = ValidationSeverity.Error.class)
private Address recipientAddress;
...
In Listing 8, warning-level validation failures are logged at the info level, while errors are logged at the error level.
Listing 8. Associating logging level with validation errors or warnings
for (ConstraintViolation<MailLetterTemplate> error : constraintViolations) {
if (error.getConstraintDescriptor().getPayload().iterator().next()
.equals(ValidationSeverity.Warning.class)) {
StmtValLog.getInstance().info("Property "
+ error.getPropertyPath().toString()
+ " runtime value " + error.getInvalidValue()
+ ". Warning level constraint violation: "
+ error.getMessage());
}
if (error.getConstraintDescriptor().getPayload().iterator().next()
.equals(ValidationSeverity.Error.class)) {
StmtValLog.getInstance().error("Property "
+ error.getPropertyPath().toString()
+ " runtime value " + error.getInvalidValue()
+ ". Error level constraint violation: "
+ error.getMessage());
}
}
Selective validation and the marker interface technique
Hibernate Validator also lets you apply validation logic selectively at runtime, adding another dimension of flexibility. This technique is helpful if the state of the system and underlying object structures goes through a well-defined set of transitions. For example, in a class hierarchy where derived classes can be in an incomplete state, while base class state has to be complete every class can be associated with a different level of validation.
Use the (groups) marker interface technique to separate validation rules into different categories. In this technique, a marker interface class is passed as a groups parameter to an annotation declaration.
Listing 9. Marker interface declaration and usage in two classes
public interface MailLetterTemplateChecks {}
...
public interface EmailLetterTemplateChecks {}
...
final public class MailLetterTemplate extends LetterTemplate {
@NullOrNotBlank (groups = MailLetterTemplateChecks.class, payload = ValidationSeverity.Warning.class)
private Address returnAddress;
@NotNull (groups = MailLetterTemplateChecks.class, payload = ValidationSeverity.Error.class)
private Address recipientAddress;
final public class EmailLetterTemplate extends LetterTemplate {
private Image logo;
@NotBlank ( groups = EmailLetterTemplateChecks.class, payload = ValidationSeverity.Error.class )
private String subject;
@Email ( groups = EmailLetterTemplateChecks.class, payload = ValidationSeverity.Error.class )
private String recipientEmail;
...
If you're doing validation programmatically, the validate method of the Validator class accepts a list of marker interface classes as parameters, defining the scope of a selective validation. By default, all validation rules belong to a default validation group, which is designated by Default.class.
In Listing 10, validation is restricted to rules marked by two classes: LetterTemplateChecks and EmailLetterTemplateChecks.
Listing 10. Selective validation of an email object
EmailLetterTemplate email = new EmailLetterTemplate("slaval@infosystems.com");
email.setSubject("Renewal letter");
email.setContent(new ArrayList<Paragraph>());
email.setSignature("Serge Laval");
Set<ConstraintViolation<EmailLetterTemplate>> constraintViolations =
validator.validate(email, LetterTemplateChecks.class, EmailLetterTemplateChecks.class);
for(ConstraintViolation<EmailLetterTemplate> errors: constraintViolations)
System.out.println("Property " + errors.getPropertyPath().toString() + " runtime value " + errors.getInvalidValue() + ". Constraint violation: " + errors.getMessage());
}
Selective validation can be used as a powerful debugging technique, where only a subset of the object hierarchy has to be verified at a given time.
Externalized metadata validation
In addition to declarative annotation-based validation, the Bean Validation 1.1 specification supports a validation metadata model and programmatic validation APIs. The validation metadata model can be used as an effective control mechanism at runtime without the need to rebuild code. A variety of control mechanisms can be employed in controlling validation policies at runtime, ranging from disabling programmatically defined validation constraints to complimenting programmatically defined rules. Metadata configuration has several advanced options available. See the Hibernate Validator documentation for the complete set of options.
In order to enable metadata validation, an validation.xml file has to be available on the classpath. Constraint-mapping fields refer to XML descriptors where application-specific constraints are defined.

Union calls open-ended Paris subway strike as Euro 2016 looms
PARIS, May 23 (Reuters) - The leading labour union at the Paris subway company on Monday announced an open-ended strike that would start a week before the Euro 2016 soccer tournament opens in France. The call for stoppages from June 2 onwards was made by the CGT labour union, which is already spearheading weekly rail strikes and other protests over labour law reforms that would make hiring and firing easier. President Francois Hollande, heading towards elections a year from now, has refused to withdraw the labour reform, which the CGT and several smaller unions want scrapped on the grounds that it would undermine high standards of labour protection. Millions of fans and foreigners are expected to attend the Euro 2016, a soccer fiesta involving 24 national teams that runs from June 10 to July 10. The CGT said that the strike on Paris’s metro subway network was being called over pay demands as well as the labour reform, which has sparked waves of street protests since it was hatched more than two months ago. Metro strikes in Paris usually cause some disruption without paralysing the whole network. (Reporting by Simon Carraud and Brian Love; Editing by Ingrid Melander) | NEWS-MULTISOURCE |
-- Builders in U.S. Likely Started More Homes in January
Builders in the U.S. probably broke
ground on more houses in January, indicating the residential
real estate market is stabilizing, economists said before a
report today. Starts climbed 2.7 percent to a 675,000 annual rate,
according to the median estimate of 79 economists surveyed by
Bloomberg News. Building permits, a proxy for future
construction, may have climbed 1.3 percent. Manufacturing in the
Philadelphia area accelerated and higher fuel costs drove up a
measure of wholesale prices, other data may show. Beazer Homes USA Inc. (BZH) and D.R. Horton Inc. (DHI) are among
builders reporting more orders as a pickup in employment,
cheaper properties and borrowing costs close to a record low
attract buyers. At the same time, the glut of foreclosed houses
remains a restraint on construction, one reason the Obama
administration and the Federal Reserve are taking steps to
bolster the industry. “We’re seeing some stabilization in housing, and demand
will eventually pick up,” said Millan Mulraine , a senior U.S.
strategist at TD Securities in New York . “While it is still a
beleaguered industry, the outlook is relatively favorable given
the decent pace of employment we’ve had recently.” The housing starts figures are due from the Commerce
Department at 8:30 a.m. in Washington. Estimates in the
Bloomberg survey ranged from 640,000 to 736,000. Producer Prices Also at 8:30 a.m., Labor Department data may show prices
paid to factories, farms and other producers climbed 0.4 percent
in January after decreasing 0.1 percent, according to the
Bloomberg survey median. The so-called core producer price
index , which excludes fuel and food, increased 0.2 percent after
a 0.3 percent gain the prior month. In a sign factories will remain at the forefront of the
economic expansion, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia may
report at 10 a.m. that its general economic index rose to a
four-month high of 9 in February from 7.3 last month, according
to the Bloomberg survey median. Readings greater than zero
indicate expansion. Residential real estate, in contrast, is still healing.
Housing starts climbed to 606,900 last year from 587,000 in 2010
and reflecting gains in multifamily construction. They totaled
554,000 units in 2009, the lowest since record-keeping began in
1959. During the past decade’s housing boom, starts reached a
peak of 2.07 million in 2005. Today’s report may also show building permits climbed to a
680,000 annual rate in January from 671,000 the prior month,
according to the Bloomberg survey median. Warmer Weather The fourth-warmest January on record probably gave
homebuilding a boost, economists said. The National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration reported the average temperature was
36.3 degrees Fahrenheit (2.39 Celsius), 5.5 degrees above the
1901-2000 long-term average. Beazer Homes said orders jumped 36 percent in the final
three months of 2011 from the same quarter a year earlier, and
closings on new houses surged more than 60 percent. The Atlanta-
based builder said it expects to sell more properties this year
than last. “While our visibility into the economic conditions for the
remainder of the year is limited, I believe that we will benefit
from a gradually improving housing market,” Allan Merrill,
chief executive officer, said on an earnings call on Feb. 2. D.R. Horton , the largest U.S. homebuilder by volume,
reported net home orders rose to 3,794 in final three months of
2011, from 3,363 a year earlier. ‘More Positive’ “Simply put, our business feels more positive,” Donald Tomnitz , chief executive officer of the Fort Worth, Texas-based
company, said in a Jan. 27 conference call. The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo index
of builder confidence climbed in February to the highest level
since May 2007, figures showed yesterday. Investors also are upbeat about prospects for homebuilders
while concerns about the European debt crisis weigh on the
economy. The Standard & Poor’s Supercomposite Homebuilding Index (S15HOME)
advanced 22 percent since the end of last year, outpacing a 6.8
percent gain in the broader S&P 500 . Builders still have to contend with a stream of distressed
houses returning to the market. Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke
said the central bank’s efforts to spur economic growth are
being blunted by impediments to mortgage lending, and called for
more steps to heal the housing industry. “We have helped lower mortgage rates to the lowest point
in many, many decades,” Bernanke told homebuilders on Feb. 10
in Orlando , Florida . “Yet we are not seeing as much activity as
we would like to see.” Also today at 8:30 a.m., Labor Department figures may show
initial claims for jobless benefits rose for the first time in
three weeks, to 365,000 in the period ended Feb. 11, according
to the Bloomberg survey median.

Common Causes of Hyponatremia
Na=Sodium (Normal range 134-145 meq/L)Hyponatremia, or low sodium, is quite common affecting estimates of 1.7-2.1% of the US population1. There are many causes of Hyponatremia (low serum sodium). For completeness, there are less common causes of Hyponatremia, such as the type associated with hyperglycemia (very high blood sugar) or seen with extremely high lipids or protein levels termed ‘’pseudohyponatremia’. These types are looked at and treated differently then the more common hypotonic Hyponatremia that most patients have.
It’s very important that we recognize something first, nearly all Hyponatremia is caused by the dilution effect of excess water in the blood. This excess water dilutes the sodium level to below 135 meq/L. It’s in this context that we discuss the major causes of Hyponatremia.
Lets start with medications. There are many medications that lead to Hyponatremia, thiazides diuretics being the most common culprits.
Other drugs commonly implicated are antidepressants and anticonvulsants. Street drugs such as ecstasy, bath salts, and amphetamines are also possible causes.
One question that is often brought up is, ‘doctor can I drink too much water?’
Answer, a resounding yes with some caveats.
Its relative to the solute or food you consume. Your kidney can usually do a great job of ridding your body of excess water. Even the great kidneys, however, have their limits. The lowest dilution the kidneys can ever get down to is 50. 50 what you ask? 50 milliosmoles/Liter (mOsm/L). This implies that your kidney needs at least 50 mOsm/L of ‘stuff’ to get rid of that Liter of water you drank. The ‘stuff’ is food like protein (Urea), salt and potassium. The average person eats about 900 mOsm per day. So consider that scenario of 50 osm/L. The implication here is 900 mOsm/50 mOsm/L is 18 liters a day of water one could excrete. That’s over 4 gallons! So if your eating normally you’d have to drink an awful lot to dilute your sodium. This is actually termed psychogenic polydypsia when it happens. On the other hand, if your not eating all that well, say only 250 mOsm/day, then it’s 250/50= 5 liters. Often however, as we age the kidney may only get down to 100 osm dilution. Now 250/100 is only 2.5 liters of water before you start diluting. This type of Hyponatremia is called ‘’tea and toast’ or ‘beer potomania’ (when it’s beer as the main liquid). So yes you can drink too much water even if your kidney is doing it’s very best. Now what if your kidney is getting the wrong signal?
Syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion or SIADH is just that, inappropriate signal. ADH is anti-diuretic hormone, meaning when it’s around you anti diurese (make less urine). When ADH is on board the kidney holds water very tight and your urine turns darker and more concentrated. Over several days of drinking water and other liquids, your serum sodium will become diluted.
So what causes the ADH to be excreted?
Common triggers for ADH are nausea and pain; that’s why we often see SIADH after surgeries. Other triggers are Lung disease including cancer (especially small cell) and brain diseases such as stroke, bleed, or infection. These SIADH scenarios respond best to UreaAide™ because the Urea induces a nice osmotic diuresis. The osmotic diuresis will counteract the dilution effect and raise the serum sodium level.
Another cause of low sodium levels are true volume depletion from vomiting and diarrhea. Here your body will also excrete ADH but this time the signal is appropriate. This is termed effective arterial volume depletion. This type of hypovolemic Hyponatremia usually corrects with iv fluids.
Other reasons your sodium could be low include: heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver, hypothyroidism, and adrenal Insufficiency. These tend to be obvious in terms of heart or liver disease, however thyroid or adrenal must be considered and tested for.
As you see their are a lot of scenarios in which the sodium may drop and your doctor will work with you to figure out why. The key is making the correct diagnosis and then recommending the best treatment.

The purpose of the exhibition was to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the French revolution and at the same time to celebrate the right to work.
However, to appease the European monarchies, the World's Fair was presented as having no connection with the revolution.
The construction was started with great delay and it was only in March 1887 that the states were invited; but this late date did not allow the great nations to participate, except for the United States. However, even if the nations did not participate, their companies came in large numbers.
The success of this exhibition was mainly due to the two works of art which were: the Eiffel Tower and the gallery of machines.
For their time, these two structures were technically advanced and impressive in their size: the Eiffel Tower by its height and the Galerie des Machines by its surface area; moreover, both structures were made of iron, which was not a common material at the time.
Numerous shows, fireworks and illuminations also contributed to this success.
The total surface area of the exhibition was 116 hectares, spread over the Champ de Mars, the banks of the Seine, the Trocadero and the Parvis des Invalides.
The state and the city of Paris paid 25 million francs to finance the 46.5 million francs needed to hold the exhibition, while the rest of the ticket price, the income from concessions (Eiffel Tower, etc.) and the sale of materials from the demolition of the buildings made it possible to fill the gap and even to make 8 million francs in profits. | FINEWEB-EDU |
Herbert Fisk Johnson Jr.
Herbert Fisk Johnson Jr. (November 15, 1899 – December 13, 1978), was an American businessman and manufacturer. He was the grandson of company founder Samuel Curtis Johnson. He was the third generation of his family to lead S. C. Johnson & Son, Inc of Racine, Wisconsin.
Cornell
He graduated from Cornell University in 1922. He was an active board member from 1947 to 1972, an emeritus board member from 1972 to 1978, a Presidential Councillor and one of the university's preeminent benefactors. He was a member of the Chi Psi fraternity. The I. M. Pei designed Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art on the Cornell campus is named for him.
SC Johnson & Son
Johnson took over leadership of SC Johnson & Son from his father Herbert Fisk Johnson Sr. and served as its president. He passed it to his son, Samuel Curtis Johnson Jr.
Johnson Wax Administration Building
In 1936, he hired Frank Lloyd Wright to design a new administration building, the Johnson Wax Building, for his company in Racine, Wisconsin.
Home
Soon after the commission for the administration building, Johnson commissioned Wright to build him a home on nearby farmland. The result, known as Wingspread, was built in 1938-39 near Racine, Wisconsin. It was donated by Johnson and his wife, Irene Purcell to The Johnson Family Foundation in 1959 as an international educational conference facility.
Brazil
In 1935, Johnson flew from Milwaukee to Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil, in an amphibious twin-engine Sikorsky S-38. The trip was to learn more about the carnauba palm tree (Copernicia prunifera) of north eastern Brazil which produced carnauba wax, one of the main products of his company, and to determine whether groves of these trees could produce enough to meet future demand. This led to investments in Brazil, establishment of a subsidiary in 1960, and eventually to the foundation of the Serra das Almas Private Natural Heritage Reserve to protect an area of the caatinga biome including wild carnauba palms. His 1935 two month, 7,500 mile journey to northeastern Brazil as well as his somewhat difficult relationship with his son, Samuel Curtis Johnson Jr., was documented in his son's 2001 film Carnuba: A Son's Memoir. The film includes footage from a repeat of that journey that the Johnson family undertook in 1998.
Personal life
Johnson was married three times, first to Gertrude Brauner, daughter of Cornell University professor Olaf Brauner, in 1923. They were the parents of three children, Karen (b. 16 May 1924), Henrietta (b. 16 April 1927) and Samuel Curtis Jr.(b. 2 March 1928). Herbert and Gertrude were divorced about 1931; their middle daughter Henrietta also died in 1931 (30 March).
He next married (31 December 1936) the former (Esther) Jane Tilton, the widow of William Clyde Roach of Indianapolis, Indiana. Jane died from an embolism on 30 May 1938 in Racine.
In 1941, Johnson wed Irene Purcell, an actress. They remained married until her death in 1972. | WIKI |

Can you Freeze Out Weight Gain
By: Dr. Christine Horner
I'm not a fan of cold winters, which is one of the main reasons I moved to warm sunny San Diego a couple of years ago. If you have dreamed about living in a place that's warm in the winter, don't pack your bags yet. There's an upside to living in a cold winter climate. Research shows that spending time in colder temperatures can help you burn more calories and lose weight.
In a study published in the journal Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism, researchers found that when people were exposed to lower temperatures, their metabolic rate (the speed at which calories are burned) increased by 30 percent. Shivering was found to burn up to 400 calories an hour and increase metabolic rate by five times!
But do you actually have to freeze your buns off to make them smaller? The good news is: No. Studies show that you can boost your metabolism by simply lowering the thermostat at night. The average person spends 90% of their time indoors where the temperature is usually a comfortable 70-75 degrees F. At these temperatures, your body doesn't have to put any energy into staying warm. According to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, people who spent just two hours a day in temperatures around 63 degrees for six weeks, burned more energy than people who spent the time in warmer temperatures.
Why Being Cold Burns More Energy
Scientist found a good explanation for why colder temperatures can speed up your metabolism. It has to do with the color of your fat. You have two types of fat: Brown fat and white fat. Brown fat helps your body burn more energy in the form of heat. White fat doesn't. Spending time in the cold increases the amount of brown fat in your body. The purpose is to allow you to feel more comfortable in colder temperatures and shiver less. However, your body is still burning lots of calories to keep you warm.
The Best Weight Loss Methods
Let's face it. Losing weight for most people is tough. You can turn down your thermostat, but doing that alone is never going to help you achieve your ideal healthy weight. The best method for permanent weight loss is a holistic approach that includes diet, exercise, and lifestyle.
Here are 15 tips to get you started:
1. Favor fresh organically-grown plants: Fresh organically produced vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts and seeds are low in calories and packed with vitamins, minerals, essential nutrients, and fiber. Avoid processed, junk foods and sugar.
2. Put your full attention on your meal: Don't watch TV, read, or text your friends. The more you pay attention to what and how you eat-the less likely you are to eat too much.
3. Avoid pesticides and toxins in foods and household products: Studies show that certain toxins found in our food, environment and home can cause you to gain weight. Mice exposed to toxins gained twice as much weight eating half the amount of food.
4. Sip hot water throughout the day. Frequent sips of hot water keep your digestive tract moving, and help to flush out toxins, and improve weight loss. This is a deceptively simple, but powerful weight loss trick.
5. Go to bed by 10 P.M. and get up by 6 A.M. Studies show these are the idea hours for sleep. If you consistently stay up to midnight or later, the risk of life-threatening illnesses including heart disease, diabetes, obesity and cancer are nearly doubles!
6. Move your body every day. Eighty percent of us do not get enough exercise for optimum health. Just 30 minutes of activity a day can not only help you lose weight, but also boost your mood, improve sleep and lower your risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, dementia, and cancer.
7. Spice up your life. Spices aren't just for flavoring. Many contain potent medicinal qualities and can even help you lose weight. For example, gymnema, fennel, cinnamon, and cardamom promote weight loss by reducing carbohydrate cravings, and helping to balance fat and sugar metabolism.
8. Discover your triggers. Anxiety, boredom, and depression are common triggers to "emotional" eating-which usually involves high calorie "comfort" foods. Notice which emotions send you to the chip bag or the cookie jar. Next time that emotion causes the urge to snack-choose a healthier non-caloric approach instead: Call a friend, go for a walk, take a nap, drink a cup of soothing herbal tea, turn on your favorite music and dance.
9. Invite good bugs. There are good guys and bad guys-microbes-that live in your intestines and profoundly influence your health. Encouraging the good guys and discouraging the bad guys is crucial for good health. Healthy bacteria have many functions including supporting your metabolism and helping you to lose excess weight. A 2012 study found that obese individuals who were given probiotics experienced weight loss and improved metabolism.
10. Practice portion control. Supersize meals turn your size into super! When eating out, always order the smallest size. At home, use a smaller plate, measure your portions, and serve your meal all on a single plate like a fine restaurant. Don't serve from a bowl on the table where second and third helpings are hard to resist.
11. Get a buddy. Research shows that exercise and weight loss programs are far more successful if you buddy up. It's easy to talk yourself out of walking or going to your exercise class. Having a buddy makes it harder. Even checking in with a buddy on line about your weight loss progress has been shown to make a difference.
12. Walk before dinner. A trip around the block can triple your metabolic rate. This boost continues after you stop moving and may help to curb your appetite.
13. Stay hydrated. Sometimes you feel hungry when what you really need is more hydration. Try drinking a cup of water when hungry between meals.
14. Take an omega-3 fatty acid supplement daily. Omega-3's dramatically boost your metabolism-by as much as 400 calories a day-according to researchers at the University of Ontario. Make sure to take a high quality supplement.
15. Get the help you need. Changing your diet and lifestyle isn't easy-especially when you are trying to do it alone. Don't be afraid to get help. Hire a personal trainer. See a therapist to help you emotional issues that might be obstructing your weight loss success.
Being overweight isn't an issue just about your appearance. Besides robbing you of your energy and placing undo pressure on your joints, there are also many serious reasons why you should avoid gaining too much weight. An estimated 300,000 adults die in the United States each year from obesity-related causes, such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. As much as we all would like a magic weight loss trick or pill-it doesn't exist. Achieving and keeping your body weight ideal and overall health robust can only be done through a healthy diet and life style. Invite a friend to help you try some of the tips above and soon you'll be trimmer and feeling healthier.

Conversion to DLL
Conversion to DLL
Currently I have a standalone Visual Fortran application that is linked against a large number of static libraries and includes a block data common. I need to convert it to a DLL, which will be called from Visual Basic front end. I know how to do the VB/VF part since I have done a number of simple examples with simple VF DLL's.
In the old FAQ I read the following:
?Can I build a VF DLL that is linked against the VF static libraries? 29-Oct-1997
We strongly recommend that you NOT do this as it can cause subtle and difficult to analyze application errors. If you build a DLL, always link against the shared libraries. Furthermore, any application linked against your DLL must be linked against DLL, not static libraries.?
My question is: what would be the most straight forward way to do what I need to do? Do I need to convert each of the static libraries into a DLL (each library contains multiple subroutines)? Alternatively, can I just convert my top-level routine into a DLL and still keep it linked against the static libraries not withstanding what 10/29/97 FAQ recommends?
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

No, that FAQ has nothing to do with your case -- it refers to VF run-time libraries (DFORRT.dll/DFORRT.lib). You can safely link your own static libraries wherever you want.

Q:
What are the symptoms of hydrocephalus in the elderly?
A:
Quick Answer
Symptoms of hydrocephalus in the elderly include memory loss, general cognitive decline, bladder-control or urinary frequency issues, balance issues and trouble walking, explains Mayo Clinic. Patients age 60 and older may report feeling as though their feet are planted when attempting to walk.
Continue Reading
Full Answer
Hydrocephalus occurs when cerebral spinal fluid, or CSF, pools inside the ventricles of the brain, potentially causing an increase in intracranial pressure, notes the American Association of Neurological Surgeons. A form of hydrocephalus called normal pressure hydrocephalus is especially prevalent among elderly individuals. This type of hydrocephalus occurs when the pathways through which CSF drains become gradually blocked, causing the ventricles to expand to accommodate the excess fluid. The condition gets its name from the fact that there is often little or no increase in pressure due to the enlarged ventricles. However, pressure levels fluctuate substantially in some patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus.
There are three primary symptoms of normal pressure hydrocephalus: dementia, bladder-control issues and walking difficulties, states the AANS. Because most people with this form of hydrocephalus are above the age of 60, it is common for them to mistake these warning signs as normal signs of aging. In some cases, the dementia completely disappears if a doctor correctly diagnoses the problem and inserts a shunt to redirect the excess fluid away from the patient's brain.

Introduction to VideoRay Mission Specialist Competencies
The ROV Basic Operator Certificate is like a vehicle driver's license. It is conferred upon successful completion training and demonstration of a core set of knowledge and skills related to the safe and effective operation of a specific ROV system. Unlike a general driver's license, however, the ROV Operator Certificates require an endorsement for each ROV model, accessory and operating control software (similar to a motorcycle endorsement or CDL). This is in recognition of the significant differences of ROV and sensor designs and operating capabilities and limitations.
In addition to the type of system, the ROV Basic Operator Certificate recognizes additional achievements based on the recorded number of hours of operation in various roles, including Pilot, Tether Handler, Accessory Operations, Maintenance and Supervision. Operating hours and continuing education activities are required for this certificate to remain in effect.
Upon successful completion of this syllabus, the following endorsements are applicable:
Mission Specialist Defender

Solutions To Problems Epileptics Face About Wearing Braces
Dentist Articles
For epileptics, each decision raises a concern: Will this activity tire me out and trigger a seizure? What if I have a seizure in the middle of my performance or game? What will others think of me if they witness a seizure? These worries are real, but you are still full of ability and opportunity. If you are considering braces but are apprehensive about the added problems they might cause, continue reading to find solutions to some of your concerns.
The Problem: Increased Gum Sensitivity and Bleeding
When you get braces put on and adjusted, your gums are likely to swell and bleed briefly. They will have increased sensitivity as your mouth adjusts to the changes within it. For most people, this is a short irritation, but for epileptics, gum problems could be prolonged. Discuss which medications you are taking for epilepsy with your orthodontist – some medications cause gum swelling and bleeding. When coupled with braces, this could lead to long-term pain and even infection.
The Solution: Good Oral Hygiene
Your orthodontist might make some adjustments to your braces schedule (performing smaller adjustments or suggesting something that is safe to take alongside your current prescriptions). However, the best thing you can do to keep swelling and infection down is establish a good oral routine. Brushing and flossing – although painful when your gums are sore – is the best way to keep infection at bay and promote healing. Never miss your dental checkups when you are wearing braces, either. You'll get your brackets and teeth deep cleaned to help combat infection.
The Problem: Seizures Damage the Braces
Having a violent seizure takes a toll on your teeth. You are probably aware that you can loosen and chip teeth with a seizure, and are concerned that wearing braces will only increase the damage done. Unfortunately, it is true that a seizure can break brackets, increase the tissue damage inside your mouth, and ruin other braces parts such as bands. However, it is also true that your orthodontist can take measures to minimize the risks of wearing braces as an epileptic.
The Solution: Use Smaller Brackets and Eliminate Bands
There is a standard bracket size that is used for most orthodontist patients. However, for certain patients, smaller brackets are available. These brackets are more difficult for the orthodontist to adjust, but they make a big difference in your safety and well-being. When you experience a seizure, there will be less contact with the smaller brackets against the inside of your mouth. This reduces the risk of them breaking, and also keeps your inner cheek from experiencing as much tissue damage. Your orthodontist shouldn't use bands in your mouth, either, since bands can snap and pose a choking hazard during a seizure.
The Problem: Retainers Block Airways
Lastly, as an orthodontic patient and an epileptic, you need to discuss the risks of using removable oral appliances with your orthodontist. When you have a seizure, a retainer or mouth guard is easily dislodged and can obstruct your airway. Even if it doesn't make its way to the back of your throat, there is still risk of clamping down on it with your teeth and damaging the appliance and your teeth, cutting your cheek and gums, and frightening you when you come to.
The Solution: Use Permanent Fixtures
You shouldn't have to wear a retainer until your braces are off, but it is still something to consider and talk about in advance. The best option for you is to get a permanent retainer and avoid removable mouth guards completely.
Sometimes it can feel like epilepsy is dictating your life, but when it comes to looking and feeling good about your teeth, you shouldn't let it stop you. Tackle the problems that arise from wearing braces as an epileptic head on. Your orthodontist or professionals from a site like http://www.cresthillfamilydental.com can do a lot to help you have a positive experience.

John Disley
John Ivor Disley CBE (20 November 1928 – 8 February 2016) was a Welsh athlete. He competed mainly in the 3000 metres steeplechase before co-founding the London Marathon and becoming active in sports promotion and administration. He was born in Corris, a village in Gwynedd and attended Oswestry Boys High School in Oswestry before studying at Loughborough College.
He competed for Great Britain in the 1952 Summer Olympics held in Helsinki in the 3000 metres steeplechase where he won the bronze medal. He set five British records in the steeplechase and four at two miles. He also set Welsh records at six different distances. He also broke the record for the traverse of the Welsh 3000 foot peaks.
He represented Wales twice at the Commonwealth Games, competing in 1954 and 1958, but did not win a medal either time. Disley's job was teaching PE at Isleworth Grammar School in south-west London. In 1957, Disley became Chief Instructor, and later Committee Chairman - a position he held until 1966.
Disley was one of the founders of the London Marathon, first held in 1981, after running the New York Marathon in 1979 and being very impressed by its success. He was president of the London Marathon Charitable Trust. Disley became vice-chairman of the UK Sports Council in 1974, a post he held until 1982. He was the leading pioneer of orienteering in the UK. He also competed in the 1966 World Orienteering Championships. John was the Co-founder of Oswestry Olympians Athletics Club in Oswestry along with Doug Morris.
Disley was a member of the Welsh Sports Hall of Fame and was President of the Snowdonia Society. He was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 1979 New Year Honours.

Infinera Focuses on Building for the Future as Its Customers Press "Pause"
Infinera (NASDAQ: INFN) reported third-quarter results on Nov. 6. The maker of optical networking equipment is in the middle of integrating its transformative $430 million acquisition of Coriant . The deal officially closed on Oct. 1, so the combined company's results were not on display in the third quarter.
Infinera third-quarter results: The raw numbers
Data source: Infinera.
What happened with Infinera this quarter?
Quarterly revenue of $200.4 million was at the bottom of management's guidance range . The modest growth was credited to strength in international markets. Management stated that a number of big orders were delayed into the fourth quarter.
Non-GAAP gross margin was 38.4% for the period. While this was down sequentially and year over year, management was happy with this number since the decline was attributable to the deployment of larger deals.
A non-GAAP net loss of $0.04 was on the favorable end of management's guidance.
What management had to say
On the call with investors , CEO Tom Fallon stated that Infinera is laser-focused on achieving the financial targets that were presented to investors as part of its rationale for acquiring Coriant, a supplier of open network solutions. In a press release, Fallon was quoted as saying, "We remain committed to achieving substantial cost synergies, scaling our business by delivering compelling solutions to our extensive customer base of leading Tier-1s and ICPs [internet content providers], and driving vertical integration of our optical engine across our expanded end-to-end portfolio."
While Fallon was pleased that the company's results were in line with guidance, he did admit that the company saw weak demand from some of its core customers during the period: "While we have experienced a spending pause from certain customers as they evaluate the combined company, I believe this is temporary and that we will grow over the course of 2019. Newly armed with a breadth of significant customers and formidable scale, we are positioned to increasingly leverage our vertical integration advantage to drive profitability and a differentiated business model."
Looking ahead
The upcoming quarter will include results from the combined entity. Here's the guidance that Fallon shared with investors:
Data source: Infinera.
Fallon noted that acquisition expenses were going to have "a significant impact on our margin levels." But he remains confident that the short-term pain will be overwhelmed by long-term margin expansion and the ability to "significantly outgrow the market over time."
The higher net loss is also a result of a significant increase in interest expense related to the sale of convertible bonds that were used to pay for the acquisition.
And Fallon gave investors a peek at what management expects in 2019:
Annual revenue in excess of $1.4 billion.
Gross margin improvements.
Non-GAAP profitability by the end of the year.

Eczema
Eczema is a group of conditions that all cause the skin to be inflamed, itchy, or develop a rash. While the exact cause of the condition is not currently known, researchers do know that it develops from a combination of genetics and environmental triggers.

Person washing hands.
What Are the Environmental Triggers for Eczema?
Common culprits are harsh substances like laundry detergents or other soaps and cleaning agents. Other patients might be affected by humid weather, extreme stress, and excessive perspiration. The environmental triggers for eczema really just varies from person to person. However, the condition is often the first sign of allergic diseases like allergic rhinitis, which is why an allergist like Dr. Farnam is often consulted for treatment.
What Are the Types of Eczema?
The different types are:
• Atopic dermatitis occurs when the skin’s natural barrier against the elements is weakened. This means a patient’s skin is less able to protect them against irritants and allergens.
• Contact dermatitis is an affliction when patients come into contact with a substance that irritates the skin or causes an allergic reaction.
• Dyshidrotic eczema causes small blisters to form on a patient’s hands and feet.
• Nummular eczema causes round, coin-shaped spots to form on your skin that can be uncomfortably itchy.
• Seborrheic dermatitis often afflicts the scalp and causes scaly patches, red skin and stubborn dandruff.
• Stasis dermatitis is a condition that causes inflammation, ulcers, and itchy skin on the lower legs.

Can Eczema be Permanently Cured?
Unfortunately, a permanent cure does not currently exist. However, there are many exciting treatment options available with more options in development, all of which can make living with the condition easier and patients comfortable in their own skin.
What Are the Treatments for Eczema?
Depending on the type of the condition that’s been diagnosed and its severity, treatments for the condition include lifestyle changes, over-the-counter remedies, or prescribed medications. For instance, if a specific trigger can be identified such as a type of cleaner, avoiding direct contact with that cleaner can prevent irritations. Dr. Farnam can work with patients to identify triggers. Generally speaking, though, keeping the skin moisturized is a critical element to any treatment during outbreaks. Emollient moisturizing gels or creams may be used, and topical steroids may also be helpful to alleviate flare-ups.

Divya works as an educator at a small rural childcare centre. She has a 4 year old in her kinder room, Sally. Divya has noticed that in recent weeks Sally has been becoming increasingly upset and angry, particularly at pick up time. Divya knows that Sally has recently gone to live with an Aunt and Uncle as her mum has been unwell and is currently in hospital. Divya was glad someone was helping the family as Sally had been coming to kinder in dirty clothes and saying she hadn’t had any breakfast. Divya felt sorry for Sally’s Mum as she knew she wasn’t well so hadn’t spoken about this to her manager yet.
One afternoon Sally becomes really upset. Divya asks her what’s wrong and Sally tells her that her Uncle has been touching her private parts. Sally begs Divya not to say anything and Divya promises not to tell anyone. Divya is worried that if she does Sally will have to go into care as she knows her mum cannot care for her at the moment.

Deutsche Nationalhymne
"Deutsche Nationalhymne" is a single by the German heavy metal band Bonfire that had not appeared on a previously released album. It was released in 2010 by the imprint LZ Records and the first release by the band under their new contract with Universal Music. The single was only available in Germany and was recorded in support for the 2010 World Cup event in South Africa for the German football team. It was a recording of the German National Anthem in a hard rock arrangement. The song managed to enter the Top 50 Songs listing in Germany and it was the first time that a National Anthem had ever entered the Top 50 of any music chart.

Building Visual Leak Detector from Source
Because Visual Leak Detector is open source, it can be built from source if you want to tweak it to your liking. As of Visual Studio 2008, the source can usually be built out-of-the-box without downloading or installing any other tools. If you are using Visual Studio 2008 (or later), you can skip ahead to Executing Your Built vld.dll.
Users with older versions of Visual Studio should continue reading here and follow the instructions in the next subsection.
For Older Versions of Visual Studio
The most difficult part about building VLD from source is getting your build environment correctly set up. But if you follow these instructions carefully, the process should be fairly painless.
1. VLD depends on the Debug Help Library. This library is part of Debugging Tools for Windows (DTfW). Download and install DTfW in order to install the required headers and libraries. I recommend installing version 6.5 of DTfW, or later. Newer versions tend to work fine, but older versions will probably not work. Be sure to manually select to install the SDK files during the DTfW installation or the headers and libraries will not be installed (they are not always installed with a default installation).
2. Visual C++ will need to be made aware of where it can find the Debug Help Library header and library files. Add the sdk\inc and sdk\lib\i368 (sdk\lib\amd64) subdirectories from the DTfW installation directory to the include and library search paths in Visual C++. (See the section above on using Visual Leak Detector on instructions for adding to these search paths).
3. VLD also requires a reasonably up-to-date Microsoft Windows SDK. It is known to work with the latest SDK (as of this writing) which is the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4. It should also work with earlier SDKs, such as the Windows XP SP2 SDK. If in doubt, update your Microsoft Windows SDK to the latest version.
4. Again, Visual C++ will need to know where to find the Microsoft Windows SDK headers and libraries. Add the Include and Lib subdirectories from the Platform SDK installation directory to the Include and Library search paths, respectively. The Microsoft Windows SDK directories should be placed just after the DTfW directories.
To summarize, your Visual C++ include search path should look something like this:
C:\Program Files\Debugging Tools for Windows (x86)\sdk\inc
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Include
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio x\VC\Include
...
And your Visual C++ library search path should look like this:
C:\Program Files\Debugging Tools for Windows (x86)\sdk\lib\i386
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Lib
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio x\VC\Lib
...
In the above examples, "x" could be "8", "9.0", or "10.0" (or possibly other values) depending on which version of Visual Studio you have installed. Also, the name of your Microsoft Windows SDK directory will probably be different from the example depending on which version of the Platform SDK you have installed.
Once you have completed all of the above steps, your build environment should be ready. To build VLD, just open the vld.sln solution file and do a full build.
Executing Your Built vld.dll
When actually running the built project, vld.dll will expect to find the Debug Help Library as a private assembly. The private assembly must be located in the same directory as vld.dll (either the Release or Debug directory by default). Otherwise, when VLD is loaded, an error message will pop up indicating that the program failed to initialize, and you will see a message similar to the following in the debugger's output window:
LDR: LdrpWalkImportDescriptor() failed to probe C:\Projects\vld\Release\vld.dll for its manifest, ntstatus 0xc0150002
To ensure that vld.dll finds the required private assembly, you need to copy dbghelp.dll and Microsoft.DTfW.DHL.manifest to the same directory that vld.dll is in.

[Update]
We have upgraded from VS2008 to VS2012.
When our application is executed with VLD switched on (via vld.ini), the startup time increases from about five seconds (VS2008) to about one minute (VS2012). Likewise, the shutdown time increases from about two minutes (VS2008) to about 30 minutes (VS2012)

" To build VLD, just open the vld.sln solution file and do a full build."
The documentation states that Visual Studio 2010/2012 is supported for VLD development. However, there is no vld.sln included with the source code package.
Note that for those using an older version of Visual Studio, Visual Studio Project Converter claims to be able to downgrade the sln file to an earlier version:
