Usage
This library is currently incomplete, and only implements the features I need
for the redpanda project. I intend to end up with a complete implementation of
the fauna v1 API, so please file an issue or contact me (Twitter & email
below) if you have suggestions, bug reports, or patches.
Models
Fauna works with "classes" and "instances" which should map to models and
objects in your app.
A model is a prototype that extends fauna.Class. For example, here's a model
for a song in coffeescript:
The static call @field registers "title" and "rating" as fields in your
javascript object that should be submerged into the 'data' JSON blob when
storing an object in fauna.
Similarly, @reference registers "artist" as a field that refers to another
object stored in fauna. It will be stored by instance ID in the 'references'
JSON blob. Fauna will usually follow references when fetching objects (at
least one or two levels deep), so when reading a Song object, the "artist"
field may contain another full object.
The @field and @reference calls can be used as many times as you want
within a single class, or you may list all the relevant fields on a single
line (like above), Check out the fauna documentation for more details about
the 'data' and 'references' fields on stored instances.
The fauna class name can be inferred (the lowercase name of the model class,
plus an 's') or declared explicitly with @faunaClass:
classSongextendsfauna.Class@faunaClass"all_songs"
Event sets
Custom event sets can be declared on a model class with @eventSet:
classAlbumextendsfauna.Class@eventSet"tracks"
This will create a special field 'tracks' on any Album object, which refers to
an object with methods for manipulating the set. The methods are:
add(object)
Add an object to an event set. The object must already exist in fauna and
be the result of some previous fauna-js call or passed to `createInstance'.
It may be a fauna instance ID instead of an object, for convenience.
remove(object)
Remove an object from an event set. The same restrictions apply as add.
page(params)
Fetch the objects that were added to an event set within a time range. The
default time range is infinite, or listing every object currently in the
set. Paramaters are count (maximum number of objects to fetch), before,
and after (tags returned by a previous result). The result is an object
with the items in items, and the before/after tags in before and
after. |
Ramblings of a Field Target Junky
So this starts out maybe two or more years ago. Shawn Pragle and I are shooting together and talking/laughing about everything. I ask where Mark DeBoard is and Shawn explains that he is down in North Carolina showing off their new AirBow to the disabled veterans association (or something) because it offers those that can no longer draw a bow the ability to hunt again because of it's eight pound c(*# (the cocking effort to reset the trigger)<record screetch>WOW! That's quite large Shawn, as I bust out laughing. Shawn realizes what he said and we wait a couple of minutes to stop giggling. For the next two years this story continues to come up and we laugh and giggle about it the same as we did when it first happened.So this past winter, when the season had ended and I had some spare time I thought about this and figured that I would make a field target face plate to commemorate this moment.At the end of the safety meeting last month I presented this to Shawn in front of all his field target friends.If you want to see the unedited picture of his "special" field target send an email to smcdanie@rochester.rr.com |
Lipid composition of cerebral vessels in American Negroes, Caucasians and Nigerian Africans: a comparative study.
The lipid content of cerebral vessels from American Negroes, Caucasians and Nigerian Africans living in urban areas was chemically quantitated. There are significant differences between the total and free cholesterol content of the vessels among the three population groups. The american Negroes have the greatest amount of cerebral vascular cholesterol compared with American Caucasians and Nigerians. This confirms previous morphological observations that the severity and extent of cerebral atherosclerosis are greater in American Negros than in American Caucasians and aftricans. However, there is no significant difference in the phospholipid content of the cerebral vessels except among the female Negro groups. Chemical quantitation of lipids in vessels may be utilized for assessment of degree of atherosclerosis and may prove to be an acceptable and reliable alternative methodology for epidemiological studies. |
Quantitative analysis and simultaneous activity measurements of Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase in red blood cells by HPLC-ICPMS.
The interest on accurate and precise determination of metalloproteins such as Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (Cu, Zn-SOD) involved in the redox balance of living cells is increasing. For this purpose, analytical strategies that provide absolute protein concentration measurements have to be developed. The determination of Cu, Zn-SOD through the measurement of the Cu associated to the protein, which provides its enzymatic activity, by liquid chromatography with online inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometric (ICPMS) detection is described here. Postcolumn isotope dilution analysis (IDA) of Cu has been applied for quantification after evaluation of the column recovery for the total Cu and also Cu-SOD that turned out to be quantitative. When the concentration results obtained via IDA using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-ICPMS are plotted versus the activity measurements (using the spectrophotometric pyrogallol autoxidation method) a good correlation curve is obtained. Such results permit us, from ICPMS measurements, to obtain simultaneously the Cu, Zn-SOD absolute concentration as well as its enzymatic activity by interpolation in the previously obtained curve. This possibility was explored in real samples (red blood cells of control individuals and patients with metallic total hip arthroplasty) obtaining a good match between direct enzymatic activity measurements and those obtained by interpolation in the correlation curve. The actual protein identification in the red blood cell extract was conducted by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS), and two matrixes were compared in order to preserve as much as possible the protein-metal interactions during the MALDI process. Interestingly, using a solution containing trihydroxyacetophenone in citrate buffer permitted us to observe some metal-protein interactions in the MS spectrum of the intact Cu, Zn-SOD from red blood cells. |

Carl Paladino, the co-chair for Donald Trump’s campaign in New York, said that Khizr Khan’s remarks at the Democratic National Convention demonstrated a “lack of character and backbone” that dishonored his son, a Muslim-American soldier killed in combat.
In a Sunday email to BuzzFeed News, Paladino slammed Khan for his “lack of objectivity and submission to Hillary’s hideous effort to compel him to disgrace the memory of his son.”
He also questioned Khan’s motivations, saying that Clinton’s staff “obviously wrote the speech.”
“She even bought him the pocket constitution,” Paladino claimed, “which he probably never read but also returned to the staff after the speech.”
Paladino went on to accuse Khan of “advocating for Islamist terrorists” and communicating “with terrorist individuals and organizations,” implying that this motivated Khan’s remarks.
He did not provide evidence to support either claim.
“Allowing himself to be so controlled by Hillary that he would dishonor the memory of his heroic son shows the man’s lack of character and backbone,” Paladino concluded. “I am certain that most Gold Star parents would despise Mr Kahn’s (sic) attempt to politicize his son’s loss.”
Paladino previously suggested that Khan is “a member of the Muslim Brotherhood” and that Trump therefore does not have to respect or refer to him as a “Gold Star parent,” saying that Khan “certainly doesn’t deserve that title.” |
Q:
What do you call a heterosexual who wonders what it would be like to have a relationship with a gay person?
In "Perfect Zen" by E. A. St. Amant it is written:
“You're a breeder voyeur,” Paulo remarked. “She loves the explicit gay
porno stuff, like at the Barn.”
I found that a breeder voyeur is 'A heterosexual person who attends a gay bar or event in order to observe gay life', so, I'm wondering what do you call a heterosexual who, not only observes gay life, but wonders what it would be like to live and to have a relationship with a gay person.
The first word that come to my mind is curious, but it seems too general and I'm looking for a word that fits more precisely that meaning.
A:
The word is bicurious (often hyphenated, bi-curious). There's also homoflexible and heteroflexible.
Bi-curious is a term used to refer to people of a heterosexual or homosexual identity who, while showing some curiosity for a relationship or sexual activity with a person of the sex they do not favor, distinguish themselves from the bisexual label. The term is sometimes used to describe a broad continuum of sexual orientation between heterosexuality and bisexuality.
The terms heteroflexible and homoflexible are also applied to bi-curiosity, though some authors distinguish heteroflexibility as lacking the "wish to experiment with ... sexuality" implied by the bi-curious label.

Government aiming to simplify VAT on capital goods scheme
The UK government has launched a consultation that aims to simplify VAT on capital assets in order to 'reduce the administrative burden of the capital goods scheme' (CGS).
The CGS allows businesses to make adjustments over time to the initial VAT recovery related to the purchase of specific types of capital items.
Although the recovery of VAT on these items is made on a one-time only basis, within the year of purchase, adjustments must be made in subsequent years. The size of those adjustments depends on the proportion of taxable use of the asset. According to the government, administering the CGS can be 'problematic', and some of the underlying assumptions of the scheme are 'outdated'.
Complexity is added to the CGS calculations by the partial exemption that applies to businesses that make both taxable and exempt supplies. This requires the business to submit a statement of partial exemption special methods (PESMs) for HMRC's approval. This process increases the administrative workload on both the business and HMRC.
The government is now consulting on how PESMs can be simplified, and is also reviewing the current partial exemption de minimis limit.
Additionally, HMRC is asking for feedback on how partial exemption and the CGS could be streamlined with Making Tax Digital (MTD). |

F*ck Club: Con
Conner Steele has nothing but respect for ladies. He absolutely adores them and takes more than a little bit of pride in his job—or rather, his former job.
After a run-in with a cop, former male escort Con, along with his brother Riley and best friend Shame, decided it might just be best to hang up their…hats and retire from the business of being paid to pleasure.
After all, they have a profitable business going with their new pub. No reason to ruin a good thing and Con is more than happy to keep pleasing the ladies—just…no longer as a job. Finding a date or company for the night has never been an issue for him, either. He’s been told more than once that he can charm a tiger out of its stripes. But lately a new hire at the bar is turning the tables on him—she is the one charming him, twisting him up into knots and getting him so worked up, he can barely see straight.
In his rather expert opinion, Shawntelle Callahan is nothing less than a queen.
And she’s a queen on a mission, too. Even as tangled up as he is over her, he can see that. First she tries to coax him out of retirement for one last engagement. When that doesn’t work, she sets out to drive him crazy. After finally admitting that she’s a writer who’s looking to do a story on male escorts, Con realizes it will be best to just stay away from Shawntelle. Sure, she says she’s just looking for some hands-on information but he knows there’s more to it than that. There are secrets in her eyes, barely hidden lies and doubt.
F*CK CLUB: SHAME
Max “Shame”’ Schaeffer knows only one way—the hard way. He lives hard, drinks hard, fights hard…and if comes to it, he figures he’ll die hard, too. The only soft thing in his life is Charli Steele, the younger sister of his two best friends. He knows she thinks she’s in love with him, but with his tarnished and messed-up past, he doesn’t see anything in him worthy of love.
Dr. Charli Steele knows more about Shame than he realizes, and she has loved him since they were kids—scars and all. He loves her, too. She is sure he does. But Shame will never give in to it. Until one brief, stolen night leads to another…and another. Then Shame decides to throw it all away. Heartbroken, she retreats, intent on trying to heal from this latest rejection. But a phone call in the middle of the night changes everything.
Shame is hurt, and he needs her.
It turns out he needs her a lot more than he realizes. But will he let her in…before it’s too late? |
ESPN Commentator Stephen A. Smith argued that “the black vote has been taken for granted” and that black voters have given the Democrats “license to take us for granted” on Saturday’s “Smerconish” on CNN.
“I definitely believe that the black vote has been taken for granted, and primarily the black community is at fault, in my estimation, in that regard, simply because, on one hand we’re giving one party our vote because they’ve successfully gone about the business of convincing our community that the other party, the Republican Party, is completely against the interests of the black community, and as a result, we’ve been very transparent in our support, we’ve voted hook, line, and sinker, we look at the Republican Party — I’m not talking about every single one of us of course, but [the] vast majority of black Americans look at the Republican Party as the enemy, we look at the Democratic Party, even tacitly, as our support base, and as a result, we are very transparent in our support for them. So, because of it, they have a license to take us for granted, the Republican Party has a license to summarily dismiss us because they believe they’ll never get our vote anyway, and then we end up finding ourselves devoid of any kind of representation whatsoever, because nobody is really competing to garner our vote and our support” he stated.
Smith added that there are “inconsistencies and discrepancies” in some of the Democratic Party’s positions, and “one of the things that you need to do as a Republican, particularly if you’re running for the presidency, you have to surround yourself with a bunch of folks that look like us and not just you.”
He further argued out that the reason why immigration reform is so widely discussed is “whoever successfully goes about the business of dealing with this matter…in a fashion the Hispanic community deems favorably to them, you’re going to get their vote.”
Host Michael Smerconish did disagree with some of Smith’s argument, saying “I don’t think we want to be rewarding particular socioeconomic groups, ethnic groups, racial groups. I don’t like the Balkanization of our politics, I like what’s in the country’s best interest, not what’s in the best interest of African-Americans, versus whites, versus Hispanics. That’s what makes me uncomfortable.”
Smith clarified, “let me say to you that I can respect the fact that you are uncomfortable, but what I would — my retort would be is that I am a black man, from a black community, and I’ve watched us suffer religiously. Whether it’s with unemployment, where we’re constantly in double digits, whether it’s the incarceration rate, whatever the case may be, there are so many things, so many problems. I love everybody. I don’t hate anybody. I think that the interest of the country is paramount and should usurp other interests. But, if you’re talking about my community, I’m going to speak on what’s effecting us and how we can alleviate those concerns. I’m not saying I’m not concerned about the country, but I’m saying I can speak more directly to the experiences myself and others from my community have.”
Smith concluded, “I’m not trying to encourage anybody to vote Republican, I’m — not trying to encourage anybody to vote Democrat, I’m simply saying let’s not be so transparent in our support for one party over another, when that does not appear to be working for us. Force people to flatter us.”

The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of alkali metal salts of carboxymethyl cellulose, sometimes referred to in the literature as alkali metal cellulose glycolates. The alkali metal salts of carboxymethyl cellulose, hereinafter sometimes referrd to as "CMC", prepared utilizing the process of this invention possess enhanced viscosity and fluid loss control characteristics when disposed in an aqueous medium containing calcium ions dissolved therein.
Cellulose is a linear polymer of .beta.-anhydroglucose units. Each anhydroglucose unit contains three hydroxyl groups. CMC is prepared by the reaction of some of the cellulose hydroxyls with sodium monochloroacetate, using sodium to illustrate the alkali metal, or monochloroacetic acid as follows: |
Q:
How do you access your heroku database (specifically postgres)?
When I am developing locally, I'll just run a
rails c
and I can fire of queries at the console.
However, how can I query and access my postgres database that is up on heroku?
A:
You can run heroku run rails c --app <appname>. I will also add, if you want to view your database, you can make use of PG Commander https://eggerapps.at/pgcommander/ which actually automatically parses all the credentials out for you.
If you want to do this, run heroku config --app <appname> and then copy the DATABASE_URL. After you've done this, create a new favourite in your PG Commander and you'll see that it has already automatically filled in all the credentials based on what was in your clipboard.

Primary hepatic mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma and hemangioma with chronic hepatitis B virus infection as an underlying condition.
Primary hepatic mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma has a low incidence and is a rare subtype of hepatic malignant lymphoma. Described here is a rare case of primary hepatic MALT lymphoma and hepatic hemangioma with chronic HBV infection as an underlying condition. Possible treatment modalities, which should be selected in accordance with tumor size, tumor location, tumor number, and underlying liver disease, are discussed in conjunction with a review of the literature. In addition, the potential use of hepatic resection, radio frequency ablation (RFA), or radiotherapy followed by chemotherapy via the R-CHOP regimen is also discussed. |
London (CNN Business) United Airlines has suspended one of its flights and other airlines are re-routing planes to avoid the Gulf of Oman after Iran downed an American drone operating in the area.
United UAL flight between Newark and Mumbai was suspended starting Thursday, the airline said.
"Given current events in Iran, United has conducted a thorough safety and security review of our India service through Iranian airspace," United said in a statement.
The move to suspend service came as the Federal Aviation Administration banned US airlines from operating planes over parts of the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman
The US regulator said in a statement that "heightened military activities and increased political tensions" in the region could "place commercial flights at risk."

Inhibition of luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence by reduced pterins.
Luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence, initially induced by exogenous H2O2 or enzymatic reactions which generate reactive oxygen species in situ, is inhibited by reduced pterins. Except dihydroneopterin which is as effective as tetrahydroneopterin, all tetrahydropterins are more effective than dihydropterins, which in turn is more effective than oxidized pterins in removing reactive oxygen species such as O2-. and H2O2. The antioxidant efficacy of some reduced pterins is better than ascorbic acid and L-glutathione. Reduced pterins may act as physiological scavengers for reactive oxygen species, and play an important role in cellular defense against oxidative damage. |
Cyberdyne's HAL (Hybrid Assistive limb) robotic suit has been kicking (stumbling?) around for years now, and at this year's Cybernics International Forum, the company demoed a couple of new iterations of the technology. We've seen the heavy-duty version of the technology scale a Swiss peak , but the new demo showcased a lighter and leaner lower-body suit (not unlike Lockheed's HULC system) meant for helping those with muscle diseases remain ambulatory. The differences between the new rig and previously seen full-body exoskeleton -- meant for use by health care professionals and factory workers to aid in heavy lifting -- are less robust servos and a slimmer profile allowing wearers to worry less over their looks and more over living their lives. Peep the bipedal bionics in action after the break. |

Synopsis
by Violet LeVoit
In this energetic indie heist flick, brothers Easton (Damon Alexander) and Jake (JT Alexander) plan an ambitious job in Los Angeles with the help of a mob lawyer (Joe Mantegna) and a fetching blonde (Jena Malone), but the plan unravels as the key players begin to double-cross each other. |
Description of Advanced Practice Nurses Interventions Through the Nursing Interventions Classification in Different Care Settings for Older People: A Qualitative Study.
To identify the interventions provided by advanced practice nurses to older people in different contexts with standardized nursing language. This is a qualitative study. Content analysis was applied to the texts of experimental research papers about advanced practice nursing for older people. Deductive coding through the Nursing Intervention Classification was carried out. Seventy-three interventions codified with the Nursing Intervention Classification were extracted, mainly related to the behavioral and healthcare system domains, which could be explained due to the need for improving the psychosocial functioning and self-care of these patients to preserve their quality of life. Advanced practice nurses interventions can be better described, reported, and analyzed along different contexts with standardized languages. |

Properties of polyclonal, monoclonal, and recombinant antibodies recognizing the organophosphorus pesticide chlorpyrifos-ethyl.
A rabbit polyclonal antiserum and two murine monoclonal antibodies recognizing the organophosphorus pesticide chlorpyrifos-ethyl were produced. The two hybridoma cell lines were then used as sources of immunoglobulin genes for the generation of recombinant scFv antibodies in Escherichia coli. The two scFvs showed either similar or improved limits of detection in an ELISA when compared with the monoclonal antibodies. Cross-reactivity studies showed that all of the antibodies were specific toward the chlorinated aromatic ring. Furthermore, scFv gene sequences were linked directly to sequences coding for either a c-Myc tag, a His-tag, or alkaline phosphatase. The fusion products generated were functional, and their properties were determined. The problems associated with producing scFvs and scFv derivatives for detection of pesticide residues from hybridoma are addressed and discussed. |

Q:
Can't indirectly include images in LyX
In a folder example/ there are subdirectories example/chapter1/, example/chapter2/ etc.
Some images occur in more than one chapter, hence I made a subdirectory example/images/ where I put the images, let's call it example/images/image.pdf.
In the base directory there is example/images.sty providing a command for including the image (and does some more stuff I stripped for this MWE):
\usepackage{graphicx}
\graphicspath{{../images/}}
\def\myimage{\includegraphics{image.pdf}}
Now some file in a subdirectory, let's say example/chapter1/main.tex, uses that command like this:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{../images}
\begin{document}
\myimage
\end{document}
When compiling with pdflatex on the command line this works. But when using LyX this doesn't work: import example/chapter1/main.tex into LyX (so example/chapter1/main.lyx is created) and try creating pdflatex via LyX and it claims File image.pdf not found. (And when using \includegraphics directly in main.tex instead via images.sty it works, too.)
A:
Problem was that as far as LyX is concerned .sty files are raw LaTeX, hence only the file gets copied to the temporary directory where LyX does the compilation but not the dependencies referenced in that file - these get resolved only for .lyx files.
I went with using an absolute path \graphicspath{{/home/username/latex/example/images/}}. That's going to give me trouble only when I move it to a new directory or computer - and then I would have only to change the directory reference.

Supercharged Low-Temperature Oxygen Storage Capacity of Ceria at the Nanoscale.
We provide an explanation for the experimental finding of a dramatically enhanced low-temperature oxygen storage capacity for small ceria nanoparticles. At low temperature, small octahedral ceria nanoparticles will be understoichiometric at both oxidizing and reducing conditions without showing explicit oxygen vacancies. Instead, rather than becoming stoichiometric at oxidizing conditions, such particles are stabilized through oxygen adsorption forming superoxo (O2(-)) ions and become in this way supercharged with oxygen. The supercharging effect is size-dependent and largest for small nanoparticles where it gives a direct increase in the oxygen storage capacity and simultaneously provides a source of active oxygen species at low temperatures. |
Q:
How to limit the Textbox size in WP7?
In WP7 I am trying to limit the Textboxtext size.
Please guide me in this with sample.
A:
You can limit it by Width or Height property. In this case TextBox will be only with provided sizes.
Otherwise, you can set MaxWidth and MaxHeight. In this case Width and Height will automatically adjust by situation but not great than you specify.
MaxLength property can be used also. It limits the number of characters that can be displayed. TextTrimming handles how to trim text when it out of screen, i.e. add ... in the end, for example.

igfxpers.exe - Is igfxpers.exe spyware, adware, or a virus?
Be sure to always double check your spelling if you are concerned about spyware, as often spyware will use a very similiar spelling of system processes or other common tasks. igfxpers.exe
File type:
Exe program - Files with an extension of "exe" are executable programs.
Purpose of this file:Igfxpers.exe is a file which most likely arrived preinstalled on your computer the day you bought it. The file location is also listed below, and should always be verified as spyware writers will often use the same named file or like named files and just locate them elsewhere in attempts to fool you. This igfxpers.exe program goes by the name Intel Common User Interface Module and sets various diagnostic options on Nvidia graphics cards. If you have an NVidia video card like many computers do, then you will find this on your computer and running as an active task or process. This may also appear in your registry and startup folder so that it runs everytime your computer gets rebooted. This file is considered safe and is not considered spyware or adware related.
Visit igfxpers.exe for complete information on this task or process.
If you would like help on other tasks or processes, you can view the entire process and task directory here.
What is the igfxpers.exe location, where is it stored on my computer?
You can find this file on your drive at C:\WINDOWS\system32\igfxpers.exe
Note on file and folder locations: Remember that although many files are always in default file locations,
some files can easily be moved to different locations or change names like many spyware, adware, or popup programs do. If you
suspect you have spyware or adware, check to see if you see a similiar names stored elsewhere.
It always helps to check your tasklist also to see what is currently running on your computer. You can always view the tasklist
on your computer by pressing ctrl-alt-del to view your "task manager", and then click the "processes" tab. This will show you
all tasks running on your computer. Dll files will NOT show on your computer tasklist, as
dll files are actually part of other processes. You may see similiar program names running if spyware or adware
is on your computer, for example, igfxpers.exe may be slightly misspelled to keep you from finding it, or spyware and adware
may be named very similiar to a system file. Make sure always check the location of tasks or processes if you are concerned.
igfxpers.exe can also be used by other programs or software, as there is no standard on software program names
what companies choose.
Is igfxpers.exe spyware?
No.
Is this considered adware or popup related?
No.
Is this considered a virus or trojan?

President Donald Trump joked that he wanted to award himself the Medal of Honor while praising a WWII veteran and Medal of Honor recipient at a gathering of US military veterans in Louisville, Kentucky on Wednesday.
Trump, who never served in the military and received five draft deferments, said previously that he is "making up for it" by strengthening the military.
Earlier this year, while criticizing former Secretary of Defense James Mattis, the president said that he thinks he would have made a "good general."
Visit Insider's homepage for more stories.
President Donald Trump told a WWII veteran and Medal of Honor recipient Wednesday that he wanted to give himself the military's highest award for valor but said his aides talked him out of it.
Speaking at the 75th annual national convention of American veterans (AMVETS), the president singled out Woody Williams, who was awarded the Medal of Honor for heroism above and beyond the call of duty during the Battle of Iwo Jima, for praise at the gathering in Louisville, Kentucky, Politico reports.
"Thank you, Woody," Trump said. "That was a big day, Medal of Honor. Nothing like the Medal of Honor. I wanted one, but they told me I don't qualify, Woody. I said, 'Can I give it to myself anyway?' They said, 'I don't think that's a good idea.'"
The president did not say why he thought he deserved such an award. The Medal of Honor, according to the Department of Defense, is presented by the president on behalf of Congress and "is conferred only upon members of the United States Armed Forces who distinguish themselves through conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of life above and beyond the call of duty."
While Trump's comments appear to have been a joke, the president has repeatedly made comments of this nature over the course of his presidency.
Trump, who never served in the military and received a total of five draft deferments, said in June that he "would've been honored" to serve in the military, further commenting, "I think I make up for it right now ... and I think I'm making up for it rapidly because we're rebuilding our military at a level that it's never seen before."
In January, the president sharply criticized former Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, a retired Marine general who resigned in response to Trump's decision to prematurely withdraw US troops from Syria, leaving US partners to fight alone as they continued to wage war against ISIS, an enemy Trump insisted was defeated despite arguments to the contrary by senior military leadership.

During that freewheeling Cabinet meeting, Trump said, "I think I would've been a good general, but who knows." This president has previously mocked "failed generals" for their objections to his policy proposals, and many of them have since left his administration.
As commander-in-chief, Trump has command and control of the US armed forces. |

An Incentive Pay Plan for Advanced Practice Registered Nurses: Impact On Provider and Organizational Outcomes.
Advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) are integral to the provision of quality, cost-effective health care throughout the continuum of care. To promote job satisfaction and ultimately decrease turnover, an APRN incentive plan based on productivity and quality was formulated. Clinical productivity in the incentive plan was measured by national benchmarks for work relative value units for nonphysician providers. After the first year of implementation, APRNs were paid more for additional productivity and quality and the institution had an increase in patient visits and charges. The incentive plan is a win-win for hospitals that employ APRNs. |

Q:
rsync output
I am new to rsync and I do not understand the output I am getting, can someone help me out,
the output contains lines such as,
<f.st...... somefile.txt
<f+++++++++ someOtherfile.zip
.d..t...... someDir/
I do not understand what the options on the left mean, and I am having trouble finding the answer on google. Thanks.
A:
I've paraphrased here the relevant portion of the manpage for people who have trouble finding it:
The first character indicates what is happening to the file:
< means that a file is being transferred to the remote host (sent).
> means that a file is being transferred to the local host (received).
c means that a local change/creation is occurring for the item (such as the creation of a directory or the changing of a symlink, etc.).
h means that the item is a hard link to another item (requires --hard-links).
. means that the item is not being updated (though it might have attributes that are being modified).
* means that the rest of the itemized-output area contains a message (e.g. "deleting").
The second character indicates what type of directory entry it is. Specifically:
f for file
d for directory
L for symbolic link
D for device
S for special file (e.g. socket or fifo)
The remaining columns are described below:
c means either that a regular file has a different checksum or that a symlink, device, or special file has a changed value.
s means the size of a regular file is different and will be updated by the file transfer.
t or T:
t means the modification time is different and is being updated to the sender's value
T means that the modification time will be set to the transfer time
p means the permissions are different and are being updated to the sender's value
o means the owner is different and is being updated to the sender's value
g means the group is different and is being updated to the sender's value
. unused
The following columns may not be present, depending on your transfer options
a means that the ACL information changed
x means that the extended attribute information changed
A:
There is a good explanation in the man page, under itemize-changes:
http://www.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync.html
(Between mirrored archives of mailings lists and (perhaps out of date) copies of the documentation, it can be difficult to arrive at that page)
A:
I believe that output comes from the '-i' flag, search the man page for 'itemize' a few times (or search for 'cryptic output') and it shows what all the flags mean:
< means that a file is being transferred to the remote host (sent).
f for a file
d for directory
s means the size of a regular file is different and will be updated by the file transfer.
t means the modification time is different and is being updated

[Independent intestinal duplication].
Some types of intestinal duplication are an infrequent clinical condition in the gastroenterology tract that do not meet all classic requisites for their definition. We present a case of independent intestinal duplication from small intestine that starts with acute abdomen; cystic, perforated and separated tumor from wall of normal intestine was founded during surgery. It was totally resected with preservation of normal intestine adjacent, because it was an independent vascular supply. We review a new vascular classification of intestinal duplication and their importance in surgical treatment of this matter. |
Adhesion molecules in allergy.
Cell adhesion molecules have been recognized to play a major role in a variety of physiological and pathophysiological phenomena, such as embryogenesis, maintenance of tissue architecture and tissue damage repair, recruitment of leukocytes into tissues, immunological reactions requiring cell-to-cell contact. Their role in inflammatory reactions is crucial, in particular their involvement in allergic inflammation has been extensively studied. It has become apparent that the expression patterns and cell localization of certain adhesion molecules are related to the dynamic of allergic inflammation, and specifically to selective migration of eosinophils and interactions with epithelial cells of the target organs. In some instances, cell adhesion molecules by themselves may be regarded as reliable markers for clinical purposes. In addition, the pharmacological modulation of expression and release of adhesion molecules may provide new insight about the mechanisms of action and effectiveness of antiallergic drugs. |
We have studied dopa release and conversion of dopa to dopamine in Dahl salt-resistant (DR) and Dahl salt-sensitive (DS) rats on either low or high salt diet. We found that both strains, DR and DS rate increase drastically their urinary dopa and dopamine excretion in response to high salt diet. The increase in urinary dopa and dopamine was associated with only a mild increase in plasma dopa clearance and spillover. Thus, it seems that dopa and dopamine are synthesized locally in the kidney in response to high salt diet. |
Does retirement age impact mortality?
The relationship between retirement and mortality is studied with a unique administrative data set covering the full population of Norway. A series of retirement policy changes in Norway reduced the retirement age for a group of workers but not for others. Difference-in-differences estimation based on monthly birth cohorts and treatment group status show that the early retirement programme significantly reduced the retirement age; this holds true also when we account for programme substitution, for example into the disability pension. Instrumental variables estimation results show no effect on mortality of retirement age; neither do estimation results from a hazard rate model. |

Q:
How to setup jQuery within ESLint?
I have installed ESLint, but as you know, it cannot check jQuery syntax. So I have npm installed:
https://github.com/jquery/eslint-config-jquery/blob/master/readme.md
However, I cannot find ESLint's .eslintrc file in order to edit it. According to the readme file, I should be adding this code to it:
{
"extends": "jquery"
}
How is this done?
A:
according to latest update of ESLint, all you have to do is to add "jQuery" to your env and set it to True.
{
"env" : {
"jquery": true
},
}
A:
I cannot find ESLint's .eslintrc file in order to edit it.
You simply create your own .eslintrc in the root of your project, then you can add the following code to it:
{
"extends": "jquery"
}

I Have Forgiven Mzbel And Moved On – Diamond Appiah
Diamond Appiah
The pair have been feuding for as long as we can remember but Diamond Appiah says she has forgiven Mzbel and has moved on from whatever broke off their once close friendship.
Over the years the pair have dressed each other down countless times on social media, often using unprintable language – and Diamond even recently jabbed Mzbel by using a photo of her in a warning about skin bleaching – but Diamond maintains she bears Mzbel no illwill.
The former Parliamentary candidate spoke with Joy News’ MzGee at the sidelines of the Golden Movie Awards and said whilst she cannot be friends with Mzbel again, she has forgiven her and moved on.
“I don’t have any problem with her, I have forgiven her, I have moved on.” she told the Entertainment presenter.
“She is not the type of person I would love to hang around with me again. I am very honest and straight forward, I don’t hide my feelings.
“No, I don’t think there would be a day like that [when we’ll once again be friends]”.
Diamond also said her use of a photo of a bleached Mzbel to warn against the dangers of skin bleaching was not a direct attack on Mzbel.
“It was a general advice. I didn’t mention her name in my post, it is unfortunate that the bloggers twisted it.” she said.
“I was looking for a picture on the net that will bring meaning to my post and unfortunately that picture was circulating online that week so I saw and I was like wow, this might match my caption so I used that picture but I didn’t mention her name,” she added. |

My project works by socket and I try to make a chat app like whatsApp.
Now, My Problem is how I can keep open the socket even user kill app from AppSwitcher and goes my app to force quit mode? ( LIKE WhatsApp )
In another word, whatsApp and telegram and so on how can keep open the socket? Because when we send a message to another else , quickly comes a notification to her/his phone and notify her/his has a message and it's the opening socket result.
I search about it but I can't find a fine solution.
Thanks for answers...
A:
They use APNS.
If the app is killed your socket will be closed... so simple.
When an user send a message to another one which isn't online your server should send also a notification.

Like every good tutorial series the best place to start is the absolute basics. One of the hardest things I found when I first started trying to make chiptune is how to get hold of the relevant tools. LSDJ is my tool of choice but there are a lot of parts to a ‘complete’ set [...] |
“Energy is a proxy. It’s not the core problem for Turnbull’s party. The core problem is about the abandonment of conservative values.”
“This is happening because the conservative partyroom has caught up with the LNP base,” Michael McLaren adds.
“Their main gripe is a process of policy creep, the leadership is absorbed by Labor ideas, narrowing the point of difference and alienating the right.”
Nevertheless, Shanahan says that the vexed energy debate has catalysed a rebellion that might get too big for the PM to control.
“The big problem for Turnbull now is that his idea of placating the energy rebels is actually growing into more of a rebellion.”
“But I don’t think in the current circumstances, that Peter Dutton will be the only (leadership) contender. I think if Turnbull’s leadership continues to crumble, there will be more then one who wants to take over the position of being PM of Australia.” |
Q:
why have ARM based microcontrollers not oblierated all other microcontrollers in the market e.g PIC, Arduino e.t.c
ARM is ruling the world, it is everywhere. So why is it that we still have PIC and Arduino among others around. I think they all should be extinct by now and people should only be learning and doing ARMs in Universities as well as workplace. Am I wrong?
A:
Yup you're wrong :). But really, a university's job is to teach students foundations so that they can build whatever they want on top of that foundation. No school should be pushing a particular solution. The main reason they do is because some corporation gave them a bunch of free stuff.
ARM has its place in the world. PIC's are cheap and have a wide following in the embedded world as does TI as well as other manufacturers. It's all about the balance between feature set and cost for the particular application.
Arduino's have their place for those who want to be able to prototype with minimal investment and knowledge.
A:
My background has been with PIC18's. We've built fairly complicated products with these "simple" microcontrollers.
Now, I'm designing something around an ARM Cortex M3. I am amazed at how much more powerful they are, both in the core functionality and in the peripherals available. However, the ARM learning curve is much steeper, and there is some learning to do before you can even make an LED blink :)
Since a PIC is more than capable for many projects, and easier to learn, I don't see them going away.
Of course, I just noticed that that a STM32F105 is actually cheaper than an ATmega1281 (!!). I'll probably be using ARMs in the future...

Myoclonic status in nonprogressive encephalopathies: an update.
Myoclonic status in nonprogressive encephalopathies (MSNE) is an epileptic syndrome in development, characterized by the early onset of continuous diffuse epileptiform abnormalities, accompanied by positive and/or negative phenomena correlated with transient and recurring motor, cognitive, or behavioral disturbances. Outcome of MSNE is poor and may determine progressive neurologic deterioration. MSNE is not easy to recognize and should be distinguished from progressive myoclonic epilepsies and other rarely reported infantile myoclonic epilepsies. The identification of MSNE may guide the diagnostic work-up, suggesting the presence of a genetic defect, such as Angelman syndrome, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, or brain malformation. |
Q:
Why "to" in "I’ve been leaving the worst to last" and what does it mean?
(I remember he once said about a Mondrian—“it isn’t whether you like it, but whether you ought to like it”—I mean, he dislikes abstract art on principle. He ignores what he feels.)
I’ve been leaving the worst to last. Women.
From The Collector, by John Fowles
Why "to last" and what does it mean?
A:
The more commonly used variation of this idiom nowadays is probably:
I've been leaving the worst until last.
The meaning of this phrase is that, when faced with a number of tasks perhaps, you have deliberately left the most difficult or unpleasant one until last. It is the reverse of a similar phrase "save the best until last", which is normally only used when dealing with nice things. So, rather like the saying "the lesser of two evils" your phrase in question suggests that there are many bad things, but this is the worst.
You asked why, in your quote it uses "to" instead of "until". Variations of this phrase might also use "for". It just depends on the context - that is whatever you are speaking about.
Your quotation is from The Collector by John Fowles, and the context is that the narrator is speaking about a man named G.P. with whom he has various issues. He finds his criticism of art to be invalid, and questions his morals regarding women. It is after he has talked for some length about G.P's failings that he says "I've been leaving the worst until last. Women".
So basically he has been talking about all his faults, and he has left what he considers to be the worst to talk about last, namely G.P's attitude towards women.

Q:
Multiple columns in DB primary key, mapped to hibernate, no corresponding properties in mapped class
I have a class (call it "class C") whose table has two foreign keys (two other classes, "class A" and "class B"'s IDs) which make up its primary key in the DB. The problem is that neither foreign key is a property of the child class (we are avoiding backpointers, where used-by classes know who uses them).
I can map something like <id column="CLASS_A_ID" type="long"/>, but this doesn't help when I have two keys. Any <composite-id> has to have <key-property> or <key-many-to-one> which both require a "name".
Any ideas on how I can succesfully map this without putting the foreign IDs in the class?
A:
I ended up having to use backpointers and changing the design. It was a bit too ambitious.

Forming electrically conducting vias, contacts, and conductors of copper or other metals becomes increasingly challenging as feature sizes are reduced. Techniques for forming such metal features include physical vapor deposition (PVD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and electrochemical deposition (also referred to as electroplating or electrodeposition).
The general nature of the electroplating process is well known. The wafer is immersed in an electrolytic bath containing metal ions and is biased as the cathode in an electric circuit. With the solution biased positively, the metal ions become current carriers, which flow towards and are deposited on the exposed surfaces of the wafer. Electroplating is particularly well suited for the formation of small embedded damascene metal features due to the ability to readily control the growth of the electroplated film for bottom-up filling, and due to the superior electrical conductivity characteristics of the electroplated film. However, there are also several obstacles, which need to be overcome to fully realize these advantages.
One challenge facing damascene processing techniques is the difficulty of the growth of the metal film within recessed features without forming voids. Voids increase the resistance of the conductor. Also, trapped electroplating solution in sealed voids may corrode the metal. This may lead to degraded device performance or device failure in extreme cases. |
Behind the scenes: “Love a Positive Life”
Last year, Gemma Taylor and Benjamin Chesterton from DuckRabbit produced a film - 'Love a Positive Life' - with Daphine, where she shared her experiences of living with HIV, and becoming a young role model.
So, firstly: Daphine, why did you want to tell your story?
Daphine: Because I knew I would help many other young people living with HIV to overcome stigma like I overcame it, and I also wanted to air the work of Link Up.
When I was first diagnosed it all scared me. I’ve really gained courage and strength to tell about my status. You find some people don’t like themselves, they don’t like their positive status. Me, I really love myself, I really love the positiveness in me.
Why this film, and why Daphine?
Gemma: Being a teenager is hard. Being a teenager and living with HIV means navigating not only adolescence, and the usual relationships, self-esteem issues, etc., but also HIV-related stigma and fear.
Through the Alliance’s Link Up work we were aware of many teenagers who have navigated that difficult, personal journey, and we wanted to share their story through getting people to engage with one young person.
Daphine felt she had personally developed during Link Up and wanted to share her story, including discovering her status and losing her mother. We went through everything involved in doing so, and we felt secure in the decision being jointly made.
How much did you think about how Daphine would be portrayed in advance? Were you concerned about stigma towards her for featuring in a film about HIV?
Gemma: Before I’d even met Daphine, I was keen that this film would challenge any negative stereotypes relating to HIV.
I couldn’t be specific about portrayal until we knew who we were working with, as you can’t ‘script’ someone’s life. Everyone has a story to tell, we just had to wait and find out what that was. I was keen for relationships to feature, to show it is possible to live a healthy fulfilled life with HIV, including having happy, healthy sexual relationships.
Benjamin: When you sit and listen to someone and are genuinely open to their story; when their story is not being pushed out of shape in order to be 'on message', then, in my experience, you'll make a film that feels authentic.
Daphine behind the scenes of 'Love a Positive Life', filmed in Uganda.
Benjamin, Gemma: how did you make sure Daphine was involved in how she was represented?
Benjamin: When making a film that includes sensitive issues, the most important thing is to establish trust. It's very hard to do that if you burst in on the scene, waving your camera around.
You must form a proper plan with your client, and where possible visit the potential locations where you'll be shooting. Don’t pick up your camera until you're sure what your story is, how you're going to tell it, and you've made sure that your client is happy with it. That's the process that we followed with Daphine and it worked really well.
Gemma: The principle of a ‘no-camera day’ is built in to the Alliance guidelines on representation. I adopted this principle from conversations with DuckRabbit! So I knew they would be a team who would ‘get’ what we were trying to do.
Daphine’s input was paramount every day. From what to wear, where to film, what exactly she wanted to share, everything. We hoped the finished film would be a lovely surprise in how it all came together - and of course she commented on the film before we went live with it.
Daphine, how important was it that the crew spent time with you first before they filmed anything?
Daphine: Really important. It’s actually one of those moments I don't want to forget! It made them my friends which helped me to get free and close to them and that helped me to be open to them.
And what about when you saw the final film for the first time?
Daphine: I felt I existed and was so excited. I have featured in a few videos before but this made me feel great because I did it as an individual. It opened up my doors to the outside world and helped me get closer to other young people. I enjoyed the experience and feel loved, as well as empowered to continue changing young people's lives for the better.

Aircraft and other aerospace vehicles utilize a number of control surfaces, such as wing flaps, to achieve their aerodynamic performance. These surfaces are typically moveable by the pilot, and their proper use requires the pilot to have accurate information concerning the surface's actual position relative to the vehicle. Prior art position transmitters used in the aerospace field utilize a combination of mechanical and electronic components sealed within a suitable enclosure to determine the position of the control surface and to provide information to the pilot or the vehicle control systems concerning such position.
As is well known, aerospace vehicles operate in a variety of precipitation, humidity, and altitude conditions. Precipitation and humidity often lead to corrosion, and therefore, prior art position transmitters have tried to seal their mechanical and electronic components inside a hermetic enclosure to prevent such damage. However, the hermetic seals in prior art devices have been observed to fail, and when they do, humid air that passes into the enclosure condenses, causes corrosion damage, and renders the position transmitter inaccurate and eventually unusable. Even minor breaks in the hermetic seal cause problems, especially when the transmitter and the aircraft it is attached to cycles between high and low altitudes characterized by low and high humidity levels, respectively.
Because proper functioning of the position transmitter is crucial for safe operation of the flight vehicle, there has been a longstanding need within the aerospace industry for a enclosure with improved resistance to damage caused by the effects of moist air. The present invention satisfies that need. |
Q:
Find element under click causing blur
Is there any way to find out element the click causing blur even was made over?
I need to have value of a ui-select set to what user has typed in when he clicks outside of the dropdown. But when he clicks on the dropdown item the input should be discarded and item selected. So I should understand where was the mouse when user clicked outside ui-select's input. I tried
element.find('input').on('blur', function (e) {
e.target
...
});
but target always points to the
input.form-control.ui-select-search.ng-valid.ng-touched.ng-dirty.ng-valid-parse
The
Get element currently under mouse without using mouse events
always finds highlighted dropdown item ad
Determine which element the mouse pointer is on top of in Javascript
doesn't work as I can't any of the DOM X/Y properties.
Any ideas?
ps: no jquery.
A:
On focus of the input, set a click eventListener on the root document element that:
Identifies the element that received the click (the event.target, similar to your use above)
for/while loops through the event.target and all its parents (all the way up the DOM tree), looking for a match [of the "original" focused <input>]
If neither the element.target nor any of the parent/ancestors match, you found the element. Whether you return the match or not, you'll want to remove that eventListener when the handler is done.

[Meningo-encephalitis due to Candida albicans (author's transl)].
Meningo-encephalitis due to Candida albicans is frequently iatrogenic in origin and the factors leading to its appearance should be known (immunity disorders and more particularly indiscriminate prescribing of antibiotics). Diagnosis is usually difficult and direct examination of the CSF and culture on special media are necessary in order to demonstrate the presence o yeasts. Recovery is possible with present-day therapy (two out of the three cases reported). |

Tilt testing: a useful screen for rate-drop response.
Tilt testing is accepted as the main tool for the diagnosis of neurocardiogenic syncope, particularly in the "malignant" vasovagal form. As a result of experience with tilt testing, the cardiovascular responses to head-up tilting in patients with malignant vasovagal syncope (MVVS) have been defined in respect of the vasodepressor (hypotensive) and cardioinhibitory (bradycardic) components. Pacing therapy has been of limited value in the past, with controversy about its role, even in the cardioinhibitory form of MVVS. With the advent of more sophisticated algorithms for pacing (i.e., rate-drop response [RDR], Thera DR) in response to the onset of bradycardia in MVVS, however, this therapy is being reexamined. This article examines the blood pressure and heart rate responses to head-up tilt in patients with MVVS and examines the role of this test in screening such patients for the benefits of pacing with RDR. Careful analysis of the pattern of blood pressure and heart rate response during the tilt test may allow selection of those patients likely to respond to RDR and may provide useful information for initial programming of the algorithm. |

"I believe that whatever the merits of Brexit may be in the UK, that's a domestic debate here, I think it offers greater opportunities for Australia in the UK than ever," he said.
"I can assure you that we will do everything we can to enable the UK to enter into the most favourable, open, to quote President Trump, fair and reciprocal, trade deal between Australia and the UK.
Malcolm Turnbull said the UK under Mrs May would be more global and open to trade.
"We want an absolute level paying field.
"And why wouldn't we? Because we think, by and large, as long as there is a level playing field we can always be competitive with the Poms."
Mr Turnbull used the speech to repeat his familiar refrain warning against a retreat towards protectionism, like that happening in the United States under Donald Trump.
"Look, the reality is we are enjoying, at the moment in Australia, very strong jobs growth, very strong investment growth. We do not accept the lure of protectionism," he said.
"We know that the strong jobs growth we're enjoying in Australia is in large measure because of trade, and we do everything we can to open up more markets for more Australians to invest, to trade, to export, to do all things that you're doing."
Before leaving the UK overnight Saturday AEST, Mr Turnbull was scheduled to hold a meeting with British Prime Minister Theresa May about issues of cybersecurity – particularly in relation to Russia.
The two leaders were expected to discuss and formalise work on detecting, preventing, mitigating and responding to cyber attacks, whether from terrorists, criminal syndicates, states or state sponsored actors.
The work represents a new era of proactive, collaborative measures that strengthen cyber security and counter foreign interference.
The pair were also expected to discuss free trade.
Mr Turnbull said the UK under Prime Minister May would be more global and open to trade, and "once again become a nation that looks to the whole world, and not just Europe."
After four days in London for the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting, Mr Turnbull will now travel to Germany where he and Chancellor Angela Merkel are expected to discuss cybersecurity and China, as well as mount a case against protectionism. |
Automobiles are equipped with safety devices commonly referred to as "Air Bags." Air Bags are designed to protect passengers from direct impact with hard interior vehicle parts in the event the vehicle is involved in a collision. If the vehicle is involved in a collision, a triggering system activates a device which rapidly inflates the air bag. The inflated air bag provides a cushion for the passenger to impact, reducing the chance of injury, or reducing the severity of injuries resulting from the collision.
Current air bag inflation devices operate quickly enough to meet current industry requirements. The need exists, however, for faster acting air bag inflation devices which will satisfy new industry requirements for dealing with higher speed front collisions and for certain side impact collisions.
Passengers sitting near vehicle doors are much closer to the point of collision during a side impact than they are to the dashboard or steering wheel during a front end collision. Conventional air bag inflation devices act too slowly, when inflating air bags in side doors, to protect passengers from severe side impacts.
Gas used to inflate air bags mush not be toxic or cause burn injuries to passengers, and it must not present environmental hazards in use or during disposal.
Currently, industry employs two types of air bag inflation devices. One type uses sodium azide blended with a suitable oxidant such as molybdenum-disulfide or potassium nitrite to control burn characteristics. Upon ignition, these devices produce predominantly nitrogen gas which evolves from thermal decomposition of the sodium azide. Unfortunately, sodium azide is both explosive and a very toxic poison. This creates a major risk to passengers, and presents serious disposal problems.
The second type of device, referred to as a hybrid, involves the storage of an inert gas (e.g. argon) under pressure along with a pyrotechnic or propellant. This propellant serves two functions. First, at ignition the propellant produces heat and gas which pressurizes the argon gas so that the argon ruptures a rupture disc (or activates another suitable release mechanism) to deliver the argon to the air bag. Second, in some designs, the propellant itself produces gas which adds to the stored argon gas pressure for release into the air bag.
In both the azide and hybrid designs, there is a significant quantity of pyrotechnic material which, when burned, produces substantial particulate reaction products. Great engineering effort is required to filter these particulates from the gas delivery stream in order to meet the industry requirements for maximum allowed quantities of particulates delivered to the air bag. There are also small quantities of toxic gases given off by the burning pyrotechnics. It is very difficult to tailor the pyrotechnic mixture to sufficiently reduce toxic effluents to meet industry standards.
Both the hybrid and azide technologies require major engineering studies to formulate pyrotechnic chemical compositions, particle sizes and distributions, and ignition train mechanisms which satisfactorily control the chemical and pressure-time delivery characteristics of the inflation device. This means that variations in pressure-time delivery requirements between one car model and another require major engineering effort. In most cases, this also requires reconfiguration of the containment vessel and mounting hardware. |
This sample came to me courtesy of Mercuryhime who didn’t really care for it. First off, I had some this morning in a smoothie with banana, frozen mango, chia seeds and soy milk and it is so incredibly good this way! yum! I feel like I am eating a decadent mango dessert, but that doesn’t say a whole lot for the matcha since there are so many other things mixed in with it.
So then I decided to mix it in with some water the traditional way to see what would happen. The color is a brownish-green and is not that attractive. The flavor is swampy and gross – mango swampwater?! lol. This is just dandy mixed in a smoothie but quite disgusting on its own in my opinion. Oh well! I will enjoy it in my fruit! |
Q:
Limiting fields in admin by usergroup
I want to give different usergroups access to the Admin portion of my Django site and control which fields they are able to access. I plan on doing this with a custom ModelAdmin object that decides what to add to the fieldsets property based on the current user's group memberships.
Is this secure (i.e., if a field is not displayed, and the admin uses firebug or something to change the form, will Django stop it)?
Is this the best way to go about doing this?
A:
Yes this is secure as it is processed server side. I don't know about fieldsets. You could solve it by using get_form. E.g (taken from this answer):
def get_form(self, request, obj=None, **kwargs):
current_user = request.user
if not current_user.profile.is_manager:
self.exclude = ('added_by',)
self.list_display = ('name', 'finish')
form = super(MovieAdmin, self).get_form(request, obj, **kwargs)
form.current_user = current_user
return form

[Toxicological approach to evaluation of bioavailability of powdered medicinal herbs].
Neurotoxicity manifestations related to the extraction of active ingredients from "natural" powdered Atropa belladonna (NPB) and Leonurus cardiaca (NPL) in gastrointestinal tract and respectively of their bioavailability were studied in mice. The symptoms were compared with action of approved officinal extracts. In response to orally administered NPB suspension mice displayed well-defined symptoms of typical cholinolytic appearance. On p.o. administration NPB appeared approximately twice as active as officinal concentrated extract. Sequential administration of NPB and of neostigmine eliminated CNS toxicity confirming the bioavailability and notable cholinolytic activity of NPB. Behavioral, neurological and autonomic profiles developed in response to elevated p.o. doses of NPL were typical of sedative - hypnotic drugs, while maximum prolongation of barbiturate- induced sleep was achieved when "no-effect" doses of NPL and powdered valerian root suspensions were administered concurrently, demonstrating mutual potentiation of specific activity of these natural (non-processed) powders, and respectively excellent bioavailability of their active principles. |

[Chronotherapy for affective disorders].
In the literature there is increasing interest in the chronobiology of affective disorders and in the most important chronotherapies for treating these disorders. To discuss the background to and the main features of the most important therapies for affective disorders. Using PubMed, we performed a concise review of the literature on the use of chronotherapeutics in affective disorders and we also studied the standard textbooks on the subject. Light therapy is the type of chronotherapy that has been studied most. Chronotherapies show interesting and promising results in open label studies, but so far there have been no randomized double-blind placebo controlled trials. Chronotherapeutics provides a neurobiological model and a series of promising, possibly effective non-pharmacological therapies, particularly for affective disorders. Light therapy deserves to be included in the multidisciplinary treatment guidelines relating to affective disorders. However, more, better and longer trials are needed in order to evaluate the various types of chronotherapies. |
Calcium permeability of Ehrlich ascites tumour cell plasma membrane in vivo.
Passive Ca2+ entry into Ehrlich ascites tumour cells has been investigated. Passive equilibrium of Ca2+ takes place in ascites tumour cells only under conditions of exhaustive energy depletion. The specific Ca2+ ionophore A23187 does not affect Ca2+ entry into ascites tumour cells under active metabolic conditions, but it increases the rate of Ca2+ equilibration in ascites tumour cells in the early stages of energy depletion. The results of the present experiments lead to the conclusion that in ascites tumour cell plasma membrane Ca2+ permeability is not a limiting step in the regulation of intracellular calcium content, while the energy-dependent Ca2+ extrusion is the main mechanism that prevents uncontrolled intracellular Ca2+ increase. The results taken together support the hypothesis that increased Ca2+ influx into the cell, caused by plasma membrane alteration, is responsible for permanently elevated mitotic activity and for deranged metabolic behavior of these neoplastic cells. |

Q:
How to data-bind TreeViewItem.IsExpanded to a node data objects
I have a hierarchical data classes like
public class MyNode
{
public string Name { get; set;}
public bool IsExpanded { get; set;}
public List<MyNode> Nodes { get; set;}
}
I could define a HierarchicalDataTemplate to bind MyNode classes to the TreeView.
<sdk:TreeView ItemsSource="{Binding RootNodes}">
<sdk:TreeView.ItemTemplate>
<sdk:HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding Nodes}">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" />
</sdk:HierarchicalDataTemplate>
</sdk:TreeView.ItemTemplate>
</sdk:TreeView>
The question is how to data-bind IsExpanded property of TreeViewItem to corresponding MyNode.IsExpanded property, so I could persist this information.
Thank you in advance,
Lex
A:
I'm not sure if this works in Silverlight or not, but in WPF you can bind to IsExpanded by using a style:
<sdk:TreeView ItemsSource="{Binding RootNodes}">
<sdk:TreeView.Resources>
<Style TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<Setter Property="IsExpanded" Value="{Binding Path=IsExpanded, Mode=TwoWay}" />
</Style>
</sdk:TreeView.Resources>
<sdk:TreeView.ItemTemplate>
<sdk:HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding Nodes}">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" />
</sdk:HierarchicalDataTemplate>
</sdk:TreeView.ItemTemplate>
</sdk:TreeView>
A:
It is possible, if we override TreeView & TreeViewItem classes like this:
public class ExTreeView : System.Windows.Controls.TreeView
{
protected override DependencyObject GetContainerForItemOverride()
{
return new ExTreeViewItem();
}
}
public class ExTreeViewItem : System.Windows.Controls.TreeViewItem
{
public ExTreeViewItem()
{
SetBinding(IsExpandedProperty, new Binding("IsExpanded") { Mode = BindingMode.TwoWay });
}
protected override DependencyObject GetContainerForItemOverride()
{
return new ExTreeViewItem();
}
}
Then use ExTreeView instead of TreeView, it will automatically data bind to IsExpanded property of hierarchical data item.

Checking in with rookie cornerback Asa Jackson
Sometimes, blogger Matt Vensel fires a few questions at rookie cornerback and returner Asa Jackson. The Ravens’ fifth-round pick in April’s draft, Jackson is a Sacramento native who played his college ball at Cal Poly.
MV: A year ago, you were at Cal Poly trying to get with an NFL team. Now you’re getting ready to play in the Super Bowl. When you first got the call from the Ravens, is this what you expected to happen at some point?
AJ: When I got that call, I couldn’t have been asked to be put in a better situation, especially being a defensive player with all of the leaders on this team, just the mentality that this team has. I don’t know if anyone expects to be playing in the Super Bowl in their rookie season, but greatness is something that is expected around here. I’m fortunate and blessed to be in this situation, but I’m just taking it in day by day.
MV: What’s this past month been like for you, with you coming back from a suspension, tasting postseason football, getting banged up a little bit with a thigh injury and now you’re preparing for the Super Bowl?
AJ: It’s been real up and down. That’s part of the game. That’s part of life. It’s how you handle adversity and try to bounce back from it. I’ve just been trying to be diligent in the training room and get my leg right while getting all the mental reps I could in practice while I was out. Now, I just have to put it all back together for one last game.
MV: What has the reaction been like from family, friends and your fans from Cal Poly now that you’re playing in the Super Bowl?
AJ: It’s been good. It feels good to see that you have all that support back home, especially being so far away. Everyone is real excited for me. I have a lot of people hitting me up, saying congratulations and that they will be rooting for me. I also have a lot of friends and family back in California that are Niners fans. They’re going to be a little torn. But for the most part, I have a lot of people on my side, and that’s very exciting.
MV: Are people hitting you up for tickets?
AJ: Of course. Unfortunately for the, they’re not quite in the ticket budget range for Super Bowl tickets.
MV: Are your parents coming out, though?
AJ: Yeah, my parents are going to come. My younger brother is going to come. And some of my cousins and aunts and cousins are coming. I’m going to have a pretty good support group, but it’s not going to be crazy.
MV: Depending how it works out, that you are either going to be up for the game and out on the field or that you might not be active, what do you think the Super Bowl is going to be like on either end of the spectrum?
AJ: It’s going to be amazing. The Super Bowl is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Just being able to be on the field and do something, obviously I want to be out there playing and contributing. Even if I don’t, I’m going to be on the sideline cheering my butt off and trying to help the dudes that are playing any way that I can. |

FK506 in the treatment of inflammatory skin disease: promises and perspectives.
The immunosuppressive macrolide drug FK506 is currently gaining increasing importance in dermatopharmacology. Here, Gunter Michel and colleagues summarize the current state of research into the molecular mechanisms responsible for the functional modulation of cell types other than T cells, particularly epidermal cells, by this drug. |
This disclosure relates to apparatus and methods of testing and characterizing the electrical integrity of the array and cell properties of semiconductor memories, more specifically 3D or vertical memories. Semiconductor memories ICs are prevalent in the electronics industry today in all kinds of products, consumer as well as industrial. Memories can be broadly categorized into two types, the first is planar (2D) memories and the second is vertical (3D) memories. In 2D memories, all the memory cells are substantially contained on a single plane semiconductor substrate, where as in 3D memories, the memory cells are vertically arranged across multiple layers of semiconductor substrate.
As the consumer electronics products such as cell phones, tablets, laptops become smaller in size, the demand for high density memories increases. That is why in recent times 3D memories have become more popular as those can provide higher densities in smaller sizes compared to their 2D counterparts. In other words, 3D memories allow more memory cells to be contained in a relatively smaller size compared to the 2D memories. Testing and characterization of semiconductor memories is an important phase in the memory process development and manufacturing process. Especially, an early phase testing during technology development can help detect faults in the memory ICs, which can save a considerable amount of money in the long run. Therefore, more and more product manufacturers now demand an early phase testing of memory ICs. |
The invention relates to a clutch cover assembly, particularly to a clutch cover assembly having a pressure plate, a diaphragm spring and a compensating mechanism disposed therein for maintaining a generally uniform bias position of the diaphragm spring with respect to the pressure plate irrespective of the wear on a clutch disc. |
Jerusalem: The Spatial Politics of a Divided Metropolis
Description
Jerusalem has for centuries been known as the spiritual center for the three largest monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Yet Jerusalem s other-worldly transcendence is far from the daily reality of Jerusalem, a city bombarded by conflict. The battle over who owns and controls Jerusalem is intensely disputed on a global basis. Few cities rival Jerusalem in how its divisions are expressed in the political sphere and in ordinary everyday life. Jerusalem: The Spatial Politics of a Divided Metropolis is about this constellation of competing on-the-ground interests: the endless set of claims, struggles, and debates over the land, neighborhoods, and communities that make up Jerusalem. Spatial politics explain the motivations and organizing around the battle for Jerusalem and illustrate how space is a weapon in the Jerusalem struggle. These are the windows to the world of the Israel-Palestine conflict. Based on ninety interviews, years of fieldwork, and numerous Jerusalem experiences, this book depicts the groups living in Jerusalem, their roles in the conflict, and their connections to Jerusalem's development.
Written for students, scholars, and those seeking to demystify the Jerusalem labyrinth, this book shows how religion, ideology, nationalism, and power underlie patterns of urban development, inequality, and conflict.

Chemical toxins and body defences.
Without realising it, we are all exposed to a wide range of toxins every day. Some are a natural part of our diet and environment and some are man-made. Over evolutionary time, biochemical pathways are developed that have allowed our bodies to cope with this onslaught. It is only in recent times, however, that we have really begun to understand how these mechanisms work. |
First Communion gifts
The First Holy Communion is a tremendous step into one's faith. This tradition is usually celebrated with a family gathering and usually marked as a right of passage into ones spiritual faith. Special white clothing is worn to signify purity and gifts of rosaries, bibles, or other religious gifts are exchanged. Simply Charming offers First Communion gifts and accessories to exemplify elegance, grace, and purity through this special occasion. |
I did some research today on the flowers I saw two days ago…. and I have some corrections to make…
The second photo , incorrectly identified as a pomegranate, is an African Tulip Tree, Spathodea campanulata. It is native to Uganda, and is a thoroughly spectacular plant. I still want one!
In this photo, the larger pink flower is a relative of the Allamanda or Plumeria, but is called a Desert Rose , Adenium obesum. This species is native to Oman, in the area around Salalah. It can flower on bare wood, and the stem will swell up, making it a bit of a conversation piece.
The small one is a Mexican Coral Vine (Antigonon leptopus) or Chinese Love Vine – the little flowers are heart-shaped. |
Evaluating the cost-effectiveness of vaccination programmes: a dynamic perspective.
Although there are many models which are used to calculate the health benefits (and thus the cost-effectiveness) of vaccination programmes, they can be divided into two groups: those which assume a constant force of infection, that is a constant per-susceptible rate of infection; and those which assume that the force of infection (at time t) is a function of the number of infectious individuals in the population at that time (dynamic models). In constant force of infection models the per-susceptible rate of infection is not altered, whereas in dynamic models mass immunization results in fewer infectious individuals in the community and thus a lower force of infection acting on those who were not immunized. We take an example of each of these types of model, examine their underlying assumptions and compare their predictions of the cost-effectiveness of a mass immunization programme against a hypothetical close contact infection, such as measles. We show that if cases of infection are the outcome of interest then the constant force of infection model will always underestimate the cost-effectiveness of the immunization programme except at the extremes when no one or everyone is immunized. However, unlike the constant force of infection model, the dynamic model predicts an increase in the average age at infection after immunization which could impact on the estimate of the cost-effectiveness of the programme if the risk of developing serious disease is a function of the age at infection (as, for instance, is the case for congenital rubella syndrome). Taking cases of infection as the outcome measure and using the dynamic model, the undiscounted cost-effectiveness ratio will tend to decline over time and approach a constant value, as the system moves from pre- to post-immunization equilibrium. We go on to show how the cost-effectiveness of a fixed-term immunization programme might change over time, and discuss why, under most circumstances, decision makers should not assume that elimination (permitting termination of mass immunization) will occur. |

Mass administration of the antimalarial drug mefloquine to Guantánamo detainees: a critical analysis.
Recently, evidence has emerged from an unusual form of mass drug administration practised among detainees held at US Naval Station Guantánamo Bay, Cuba ('Guantánamo'), ostensibly as a public health measure. Mefloquine, an antimalarial drug originally developed by the US military, whose use is associated with a range of severe neuropsychiatric adverse effects, was administered at treatment doses to detainees immediately upon their arrival at Guantánamo, prior to laboratory testing for malaria and irrespective of symptoms of disease. In this analysis, the history of mefloquine's development is reviewed and the indications for its administration at treatment doses are discussed. The stated rationale for the use of mefloquine among Guantánamo detainees is then evaluated in the context of accepted forms of population-based malaria control. It is concluded that there was no plausible public health indication for the use of mefloquine at Guantánamo and that based on prevailing standards of care, the clinical indications for its use are decidedly unclear. This analysis suggests the troubling possibility that the use of mefloquine at Guantánamo may have been motivated in part by knowledge of the drug's adverse effects, and points to a critical need for further investigation to resolve unanswered questions regarding the drug's potentially inappropriate use. |
The accuracy of an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) process' ability to recognize characters continues to improve. However, even the best OCR processes are incapable of providing one hundred per-cent accuracy. Accuracy is dependent on many factors including what fonts are being scanned and the ability to recognize the scanned fonts. One process, utilized for improving the accuracy of hand written or unfamiliar fonts, uses a training method consisting of one sample or an average of a multiplicity of character samples to create a character master for comparing scanned characters images. A probability of closeness and/or the process of elimination of other character candidates is used to select a best fit. One disadvantage of such a process is the need for retraining for a user other than the trained user. A second disadvantage revolves around the need to maintain permanent additional storage to maintain the training material.
Other processes have employed probabilistic color distribution in characters to improve the accuracy of character recognition. The use of probabilistic color distribution recognizes that certain colors are undetectable to the human eye. One problem arises when a color is misinterpreted or the OCR process is not sure of a color associated with specific characters. Other problems can result from color output variations due to a printing process such as ink changes, weather changes (temperature, humidity), print head positioning adjustment failures, etc.
Consequently, a technique is needed that provides a procedure for improving the accuracy of an OCR process by providing for the recognition of characters that would otherwise not be recognized. |
