Buy Best DO Meter in India – Dissolved Oxygen Meter For Biofloc Fish and Shrimp Farming
Whether it's Biofloc or RAS or Traditional Aquaculture System of Farming Fishes and Shrimps, it's very essential to Buy the Best DO Meter in India. The Dissolved Oxygen (DO) Meter helps to monitor the water oxygen. In aquaculture, 99% of problems occur only due to insufficient dissolved oxygen in the culture water.
For a traditional open pond fish or shrimp culture, the dissolved oxygen level of 4-5ppm is good enough for the animals as the stocking density is very low. But in Biofloc and RAS System, the stocking density of fishes and shrimps are very high compared to traditional farming. So in such high-density stocking farming, the demand for dissolved oxygen (DO) is very high in the culture of water and an insufficient supply of oxygen can lead to mortality.
So continuously dissolved oxygen (DO) need to be monitored for getting better results. To measure dissolved oxygen in the water you should buy the best dissolved oxygen meter in India.
Here are a few critical points that one must not ignore;
- Dissolved Oxygen (DO) Creates Good Environment for Animals
- Ability to Suppress Toxic Gas Formation i.e. Total Ammonia Nitrogen (TAN) and Hydrogen Sulfite Gas
- Good Bacterial Colony Get Formed in Culture Water
- Eradicates Unwanted Things Forms in Culture Water
Buy Best DO Meter in India for Biofloc
There are many companies that make dissolved oxygen meters or do meters for aquaculture use. To measure dissolved oxygen in the water, here are the two products you can use;
- Liquid Based DO Test Kit
- Digital DO Meter
Liquid Based DO Test Kit for Biofloc
If you are looking for cheap and affordable best DO Meter in India then the liquid-based DO test kits can fit into your pocket. These dissolved oxygen test kits are cheaper than the digital DO meters, in India the liquid DO test kits will cost roughly ₹1500-₹2000 range depending upon the company type.
The liquid dissolved oxygen test kit take roughly 20 minutes to 30 minutes to measure the dissolved oxygen in the culture water. There are several re-agent liquids that come along with the packet and as per the instructions given, you need to follow them. It's a bit cumbersome task to perform as the duration of the test is too long.
Directions for Use of Dissolved Oxygen Test Kit
- Rinse the DO Test Bottle 2-3 times with sample culture water. Fill it till water overflows with sample water. Then close the stopper ensures no air bubbles are trapped inside it.
- Add 10 drops of DO Test Kit Bottle 1 followed by 10 drops of DO Test Kit Bottle 2. Mix well and wait for a minute. A brown precipitate will be formed and it will try to settle. Firmly stopper the bottle and shake the content thoroughly and keep it in a safe place for minimum 20 minutes.
- Now add 10-12 drops of the DO Test Kit Bottle 3. Replace the stopper and shake the bottle till the precipitate dissolves, then add more drops if quired to dissolve.
- Its ready, this sample is used for testing
- Take 10ml of sample from the sample bottle in the test jar.
- Add 4 drops of DO Test Kit Bottle 4 and mix it well.
- Now dropwise add DO Test Kit Bottle 5, counting the number of drops added while mixing until the blue color disappears.
You can imagine if you have 10 Biofloc Tanks and measure the dissolved oxygen of each tank using the liquid-based test kit, it will take 5 hours of your time, which everyone cannot afford it. So its wise to use these liquid-based test kits for small projects with less than 3 culture tanks.
Here are a few companies that make liquid-based DO test kits
Aquasol Dissolved Oxygen Test Kit
Product Price: ₹1699
Sagar Aquarium Dissolved Oxygen Test Kit
Brand Sagar Aquarium
Product Price: ₹2700
Salifert Dissolved Oxygen Test Kit
Product Price: ₹600
Digital DO Meter for Biofloc
If you are doing commercial aquaculture, then buy the best and most reliable DO Meter, which can provide high-accuracy results in less time. The Dissolved Oxygen Meter is one of the most critical tools in aquaculture, so never try to compromise buying the cheap DO meters.
The Digital DO Meter is far better than the liquid-based DO test kit. To measure the dissolved oxygen in culture water, the Digital Dissolved Oxygen Meter takes just 1-2 minutes only. You need to bring the sample water from the culture tank or pond and dip the Digital DO Meter in it and leave it for 1-2 minutes, it will show you the results. Its that simple and easy to use.
The Digital DO Meter Price in India starts from ₹10,000 to ₹50,000 depending upon the manufacturer.
Here are the lists of the Best DO Meter in India (Digital Dissolved Oxygen Meters) that are preferred by aquaculture professionals. I have sorted it out based on the product quality, service support, and prices. You can choose the ones which suits your requirements.
Lutron Dissolved Oxygen Meter Model 5509
Product Price: ₹12599
Lutron Dissolved Oxygen Meter Model 5510
Product Price: ₹19600
Lutron Dissolved Oxygen Meter Model PDO 519
Product Price: ₹15900
Lab Junction Dissolved Oxygen Meter
Brand Lan Junction
Product Price: ₹6550
My Recommendations – Buy Best DO Meter in India
I have been engaged in the aquaculture industry for more than 8 years and used several Dissolved Oxygen Meters. I find the Lutron Dissolved Oxygen Meter performs very well without any technical issues and their customer service support is very good as well.
The calibration process is very simple and easy but you need to order a few extra electrolyte solutions, which are used inside the Lutron DO Meter for showing high-accuracy results.

Marketing your franchise is an essential part of success, but many franchisors are lost when it comes to marketing. And when there is no system at the top for marketing a franchise – to franchisees or to customers – failure is more likely. What are some of the things you can do to improve your franchise marketing and how can Accurate Franchising, Inc. help?
1. Importance of Collaboration
First, it is important to understand the importance of collaboration, between the franchisor and the franchisee. It is essential there be an open line of communication and that franchisors and franchisees be able to share data and discuss decisions right from the start. We will help you identify and fill marketing communication gaps, so everyone involved in your franchise is able to function and deal with information effectively.
2. Balance Between Franchise Marketing and Franchise Consistency
Next, we will help you strike a balance between local franchise marketing and franchise consistency. It is important franchisees target their local audience, but it is also important there be consistency in your brand. There is a successful way to give some autonomy to franchisees without sacrificing the overall concept behind your marketing.
3. System for Managing Data
We also find it helpful to create a system for managing data. These systems help you gain insight into marketing performance at each location, so you are able to see what is working and what is not. Then you can use that information to coach your franchisees. When you and your franchisees are viewing the same data, it is easier to have clear and effective discussions about the status of a franchise and goals for the future.
This also helps you adopt tools and strategies that are being used throughout your franchise. If something is successful at one location, there is a good chance it could work elsewhere. There is no reason to be alarmed if a franchisee wants to try something or be unique, and in the long run, it could help everyone involved. You just need to have a system in place for franchise marketing so you can monitor the actions of your franchisees and implement what works at all of the franchise locations.

text: The aim of this work was to study the physical, chemical, physiological and microbiological changes during the flow chart of fresh-cut strawberry. Strawberry cvs. Camarosa, Dover and Tudla, derived from experimental area of the Universidade Federal de Viçosa, were selected by color (red ¾) and absence of wound. Afterwards, the minimal processing was evaluated, as follows: fast cooling, water and ice, removal of the calyx followed by conservation at 5±0.5°C and 90-95% RH for 13 days, sanitation, drainage, cut in halves. Removal of the calyx did not result significant difference for fresh weight, total soluble solids, total titratable acidity, pH and ratio TSS/TTA. The rapid cooling resulted in lower electrolyte leakage and respiratory rate, especially sanitized fruits. Sanitization by immersion in chlorine solution slowed the growth of fungi and yeast. Drainage for 20 minutes eliminated practically all water on the surface of the fruits. The fresh-cutting did not affect the visual and nutritional quality of strawberries like appearance, microbiot, vitamin C, anthocyanins and phenolic compounds, consisting of alternative market potential economically viable.

Hey, this is pretty cool! Here's inventor Bram Knaapen's Arduino-powered Equinox Clock, which ditches the traditional hands interface in favor of customizable LED displays. Inside, a video that demonstrates the Equinox Clock's main features, and an overview of its specs.
Here's the demo video:
And, courtesy Knaapen's web site, here are some specs:
For people interested in how the Equinox clock was made a short description:
The most important parts:
Arduino Mini Pro
USB-Serial converter
12x TLC5940PWP (SMD) Led drivers
DS1307 + battery to keep track of time
Loads of circuitboards (12 black ones and 60 white ones)
The clock works like this: In the bottom of the clock (behind the infinity symbol) is an arduino mini Pro. The Arduino is connected to the first of a total of 12 black circuitboards. These black circuitboards all have a TLC5940PWP led driver. By using Molex picoflex cables and connectors I daisy-chained 12 of these led drivers. Every black circuitboard has 5 connectors for the white LED circuitboards. Behind the infinity symbol is a touch sensitive wire (capacitive) that enables to cycle through different colors or turn it off. That's roughly it for the electronics! The body was laser cut, assembled and spray painted, the plexiglass blocks were sandblasted. The software is pretty straight forward. The arduino receives the current time from the DS1307 and calculates the color palette according to the time of day using HSV color space.

The ENCOUNTER PROCESS
The Encounter Process serves to structure meetings and the work that supports them. The other tools and methods in ICON9TM either fit into this process, in the sense that their use can be linked to specific process steps, or they support it in a more general sense.
The process is in five steps: Prepare, Engage, Do, Check and Follow-up.
I will not trouble the reader with the historical explanation of the compass-needle shape. Let's say that it's a reminder of the sense of direction that a good top-level process provides.

Building a Business Around Helping Others
When you build your business around the concept of helping others, everyone benefits. There are many health related projects businesses can adopt to help their local community. These businesses may include projects for aiding the elderly, assisting children of lower income and single parent families, and helping individuals with AIDS or cancer.
Individuals with a strong desire to help will not only gain great satisfaction from projects that aid others, but will set an example for many others to follow. If you are a local business or individual looking for a way to give back to your community, the following projects offer a few ideas to help you get started in this area.
Many low-income neighborhoods suffer from lack of basic health care services to meet their need. Some people lack finances for essential health services; others lack time or sufficient help with their children to receive much needed medical care. By organizing a health fair, basic health services can be brought to those living in low-income areas to make it possible for them to receive the medical attention they need.
Such services could include free:
- Physical, Dental and Eye Exams
- Blood Pressure Checks
- Nutritional Counseling
- Diabetes Exams
- HIV and STD Exams
- Preventative Healthcare Counseling
Your efforts in this area could even lead to the establishment of a free health clinic where low-income residents could get the regular healthcare treatments they need.
Substance Abuse in Teens
Despite efforts to curb teen substance abuse at the high school level, this continues to be a problem in many areas of the country. A project specifically geared to educate teens about substance abuse and offer practical assistance to those already in the grips of such abuse could be a help to your community. This would have to be developed and organized in such a way as to be effective in reaching the youth in your area.
A program of this nature would require clear cut strategies and a team of dedicated and caring individuals willing to get involved in the lives of the youth of their area in order to succeed. Possible topics to cover include:
- Cocaine and heroin addiction
- Alcohol Abuse
- Use of Barbiturates & Amphetamines
- Use of Anabolic Steroids
The focus of this particular program is to provide prenatal care to pregnant girls and women who cannot otherwise afford it. Aspects of this program could include:
- educating women on how to care for themselves and their unborn babies
- giving fetal diagnostic tests
- helping women cope through various stages of their pregnancy
- providing physical, mental and emotional support
- teaching infant CPR
A prenatal care program can especially benefit teen girls in learning how to handle their pregnancy. An unexpected pregnancy can be stressful enough for a young teen; joining a program that offers physical, mental, and emotional support can offset much of that stress and prepare them for the future.
Raising Healthy Children
Obesity is a major concern in society today and much has to do with parents' lack of knowledge and concern for the state of their children's health and well being. A program of this nature could focus on good nutrition, building good dietary habits, the importance of regular exercise, body care, etc. Within the program, various activities, clubs, and sports could be organized to encourage parent and children's active participation for enhanced health and physical fitness.
These are but a few ideas of the numerous programs individuals or businesses build to improve the health and well being of the residents in their community.

The gas sensing mechanism for the reducing gases (i.e., ammonia and ethanol) is similar to the previous study [6]. However, the sensing mechanism for organic ammines is slightly different. According to our previous study, the mechanism of SVO-detecting amine was attributed to the intercalation of the layer structure and the interaction between Ag+ and amine groups [6]. As the sensor material is exposed to amines, the amine molecules interact with the chemisorbed oxygen species on the surface to form CO2, H2O, and NOx and then release the trapped electrons and the oxide particles [33]. On the other hand, the style of oxygen ions varies from working temperatures. For example, the stable oxygen ions were O2 below 100 °C, O between 100 and 300 °C, while O2− above 300 °C [34]. Therefore, according to the working temperature in our case (260 °C), this process can be summarized by Eqs. 1, 2, 3:
$$ {\mathrm{O}}_{2\left(\mathrm{gas}\right)}\to {\mathrm{O}}_{2\left(\mathrm{ads}\right)} $$
(1)
$$ {\mathrm{O}}_{2\left(\mathrm{ads}\right)}^{-}+{e}^{-}\to 2{\mathrm{O}}_{\left(\mathrm{ads}\right)}^{-} $$
(2)
$$ \begin{array}{l}2{\mathrm{C}}_4{\mathrm{H}}_{11}\mathrm{N}{}_{\left(\mathrm{ads}\right)}+\left(2x+27\right){\mathrm{O}}_{\left(\mathrm{ads}\right)}^{-}\to 8{\mathrm{C}\mathrm{O}}_{2\left(\mathrm{gas}\right)}+11{\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_{\left(\mathrm{gas}\right)}\\ {}+2{\mathrm{NO}}_{\mathrm{x}\left(\mathrm{gas}\right)}+\left(2x+27\right){e}^{-}\end{array} $$

Apart from higher surface area, superior sensing response of Ag0.35V2O5 nanobelts to V2O5 particles can be attributed to the 1D structure and the unique gas sensing mechanism. It is proposed that one-dimensional structure are expected to significantly enhance performance due to their high surface-to-volume ratio, single crystal, size, and quasi-one-dimensional confinement in nanobelts which is likely to produce a complete depletion of carriers inside [35]. Furthermore, Zhang et al. suggested that the modified ions such as Na+ and Ag+ could be accommodated on the octahedral sites of the basic structure of metal vanadium oxides, which could further increase the interlayer distance and provide the possibility of accommodating other guest species [19, 36]. On the other hand, the existence of extra Ag+ ions may not only lead to the interaction between Ag+ and amine groups (−NH2) but also result in the presence of lower valence of vanadium (V4+). The lower valence can further increase the mobility of main carries and enhance the change of electrical conductivity and sensitivity [6, 19]. In addition, the higher sensitivity of Ag0.35V2O5 than V2O5 may be also attributed to the decreased electronegativity of surface V in Ag0.35V2O5, resulting in adsorbing more active groups of amines on the surface of Ag0.35V2O5. This means a deeper space charge layer will be created. More electrons can be released and a higher conductivity change is achieved when the target gas molecules react with the adsorbed oxygen species [19]. As a result, the Ag0.35V2O5 nanobelts exhibit higher sensitivity than V2O5.
For better understanding different responses of alcohols and amine, DFT simulation was performed to calculate the interaction of the adsorbed gas molecules. Generally, the diffusion rate of molecules decreases with the increase of their molecular weights. The calculated distance from O to nearest C for methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol are 1.431, 1.435, and 1.441 Å, respectively, which are in good agreement with reported values [19]. The distance from N to nearest C for 1-butylamine is 1.470 Å, which means C–N bond in the amine is easier to break down.
Furthermore, the electrostatic interaction between the oxygen species and the gas molecule is one of the important factors that influence the gas sensing performance. The calculated Mulliken charges of O in the three alcohols (methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol) are of −0.506, −0.492, and −0.484 e, respectively, and that of N in 1-butylamine is of 0.448 e. The repulsion interaction between the molecule and the oxygen species becomes weak with the increase of the number of carbon chains, especially for the amine with low Mulliken charge. Thus, more amine molecules can be absorbed on the surface. Therefore, the highest response was obtained from detecting 1-butylamine. It is noted that isopropanol with the longest O–C bond and the lowest Mulliken charge among the alcohols shows lower response than ethanol, which may be attributed to steric hindrance. The density of states (DOS) of the three alcohols and the amine were shown in Fig. 9, suggesting that 1-butylamine molecules are more localized at the bottom of the conduction band, which means it is easier to hybridize with the metal oxide d orbital. Further studies, such as the effect of viscosity, interaction between surface and gas molecules, and diffusion rate of various gas species on the surface/interface of the nanostructures will be conducted in the future. The acetone molecule with lower O Mulliken charge (−0.375 e) exhibited lower response than 1-butylamine, probably due to the structure difference.

Conclusions
We have demonstrated a facile hydrothermal approach to generate Ag0.35V2O5 nanobelts with the assistance of SDS under mild condition. The formation and growth of such 1D nanoparticles under various experimental parameters have been investigated and analyzed. Compared to CTAB and PVP, SDS is proposed to act as a weak reducing agent and plays a key role in the formation of Ag0.35V2O5 nanobelts. The gas sensing performance for this material has been conducted. Compared with naked V2O5 particles, the as-prepared Ag0.35V2O5 nanobelts exhibit higher sensing response towards amines (e.g., 1-butylamine, R 1-butylamine = 2.2, while R V2O5 = 1.6, at 100 ppm), low detection limit (5 ppm), and high selectivity of organic amines versus ammonia. DFT simulation has been used to analyze the structure of the target gas molecules for better understanding of the sensing mechanism. The calculation indicates that the Mulliken charge of N in 1-butylamine is much smaller than those of alcohols, which means the repulsion interaction between the amine molecules and the oxygen species is weaker than alcohol molecules. More 1-butylamine molecules are adsorbed on the surface. And it is easier for N–C bond to break down due to the longer bond length. This study may be useful for the practical use of the SVO-based material in medical and food industry.

LaTeX command frequencies
In the previous post I present a bash one-liner to search directories for LaTeX files and count the commands used.
College files
I first tried this out on a directory that included some old files from grad school. I chose this directory because I knew it had a lot of LaTeX files, but I was surprised at the results. Here were the top 10 results:
 1. \Omega
 2. \partial
 3. \bf
 4. \in
 5. \mu
 6. \real
 7. \int
 8. \item
 9. \alpha
 10. \end
I was very surprised that the top command was \Omega. I expected maybe the integral command \int would come out on top.
The notes contain a lot of integrals, but these integrals were often over a domain Ω. The set inclusion command \in also appears frequently, probably in the context of saying x ∈ Ω.
The \partial came up frequently because I used it in two contexts. First, I was studying partial differential equations, so I used the symbol for partial derivative a lot. Second, I used ∂ to denote the boundary of a domain, as in ∂Ω.
You might notice that \end made the list above but \begin didn't. Sounds like an error if LaTeX files have more \end statements than \begin statements. The reason is that I used to have an include file that had lots of macros and ended with \begin{document}. That saved a few keystrokes, but now I think such asymmetry is bad form. In the search described below, there are exactly the same number of \begin and \end statements.
Client files
When I looked at the command frequencies in a directory containing some client work, I got very different frequencies. Here were the top commands in that directory.
 1. \hline
 2. \item
 3. \end
 4. \begin
 5. \frac
 6. \xi
 7. \phi
 8. \lambda
 9. \texttt
 10. \partial
I suppose \hline is at the top because the files contained a lot of tables. It makes sense that \item, \begin, \end and \frac were near the top because those are common LaTeX commands. I don't remember what I was working on that used the symbol ξ so much.
When I first thought about this post I thought I could get a feel for what commands are used frequently in LaTeX in general. I started with my own files because they're at hand, but the results say more about my usage of LaTeX than about LaTeX in general.
Other collections
I imagine if you were to look at the frequency statistics for a large corpus, such as the articles submitted to a given math journal, the results would still depend somewhat on the journal: you're going to see \int for integral more often in an analysis journalthan in an algebra journal, etc.
If you run the code from the previous post on some collection of LaTeX files and get some interesting results, leave a comment describing what you found.

Typesetting zodiac symbols in LaTeX
Typesetting zodiac symbols in LaTeX is admittedly an unusual thing to do. LaTeX is mostly used for scientific publication, and zodiac symbols are commonly associated with astrology. But occasionally zodiac symbols are used in more respectable contexts.
The wasysym package for LaTeX includes miscellaneous symbols, including zodiac symbols. Here are the symbols, their LaTeX commands, and their corresponding Unicode code points.
The only surprise here is that the command for Capricorn is based on the Latin form of the name: \capricornus.
Each zodiac sign is used to denote a 30° region of the sky. Since the Unicode symbols are consecutive, you can compute the code point of a symbol from the longitude angle θ in degrees:
9800 + \left\lfloor \frac{\theta}{30} \right\rfloor
Here 9800 is the decimal form of 0x2648, and the half brackets are the floor symbol, i.e. round down to the nearest integer.
Here's the LaTeX code that produced the table.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{wasysym}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{lll}
\aries & \verb|\aries | & U+2648 \\
\taurus & \verb|\taurus | & U+2649 \\
\gemini & \verb|\gemini | & U+264A \\
\cancer & \verb|\cancer | & U+264B \\
\leo & \verb|\leo | & U+264C \\
\virgo & \verb|\virgo | & U+264D \\
\libra & \verb|\libra | & U+264E \\
\scorpio & \verb|\scorpio | & U+264F \\
\sagittarius & \verb|\sagittarius | & U+2650 \\
\capricornus & \verb|\capricornus | & U+2651 \\
\aquarius & \verb|\aquarius | & U+2652 \\
\pisces & \verb|\pisces | & U+2653 \\
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\end{document}
By the way, you can use the Unicode values in HTML by replacing U+ with &#x and adding a semicolon on the end.

Regular expressions and special characters
Special characters make text processing more complicated because you have to pay close attention to context. If you're looking at Python code containing a regular expression, you have to think about what you see, what Python sees, and what the regular expression engine sees. A character may be special to Python but not to regular expressions, or vice versa.
This post goes through an example in detail that shows how to manage special characters in several different contexts.
Escaping special TeX characters
I recently needed to write a regular expression [1] to escape TeX special characters. I'm reading in text like ICD9_CODE and need to make that ICD9\_CODE so that TeX will understand the underscore to be a literal underscore, and a subscript instruction.
Underscore isn't the only special character in TeX. It has ten special characters:
 \ { } $ & # ^ _ % ~
The two that people most commonly stumble over are probably $ and % because these are fairly common in ordinary prose. Since % begins a comment in TeX, importing a percent sign without escaping it will fail silently. The result is syntactically valid. It just effectively cuts off the remainder of the line.
So whenever my script sees a TeX special character that isn't already escaped, I'd like it to escape it.
Raw strings
First I need to tell Python what the special characters are for TeX:
 special = r"\\{}$&#^_%~"
There's something interesting going on here. Most of the characters that are special to TeX are not special to Python. But backslash is special to both. Backslash is also special to regular expressions. The r prefix in front of the quotes tells Python this is a "raw" string and that it should not interpret backslashes as special. It's saying "I literally want a string that begins with two backslashes."
Why two backslashes? Wouldn't one do? We're about to use this string inside a regular expression, and backslashes are special there too. More on that shortly.
Lookbehind
Here's my regular expression:
 re.sub(r"(?<!\\)([" + special + "])", r"\\\1", line)
I want special characters that have not already been escaped, so I'm using a negative lookbehind pattern. Negative lookbehind expressions begin with (?<! and end with ). So if, for example, I wanted to look for the string "ball" but only if it's not preceded by "charity" I could use the regular expression
 (?<!charity )ball
This expression would match "foot ball" or "foosball" but not "charity ball".
Our lookbehind expression is complicated by the fact that the thing we're looking back for is a special character. We're looking for a backslash, which is a special character for regular expressions [2].
After looking behind for a backslash and making sure there isn't one, we look for our special characters. The reason we used two backslashes in defining the variable special is so the regular expression engine would see two backslashes and interpret that as one literal backslash.
Captures
The second argument to re.sub tells it what to replace its match with. We put parentheses around the character class listing TeX special characters because we want to capture it to refer to later. Captures are referred to by position, so the first capture is \1, the second is \2, etc.
We want to tell re.sub to put a backslash in front of the first capture. Since backslashes are special to the regular expression engine, we send it \\ to represent a literal backslash. When we follow this with \1 for the first capture, the result is \\\1 as above.
Testing
We can test our code above on with the following.
 line = r"a_b $200 {

hi everybody!
i'm a beginner in c++ and when i was studying i found a problem. I didn't understand what for is the int command if someone of you could please anwer this i'll be very gratefull :)
xpi0t0s 3Dec2008 05:39
Re: I'm a beginner
It defines a variable of type integer, which stores positive and negative whole numbers within a specific limit.
That limit is machine dependent but typically it's from -2^31 up to +2^31-1. ^ means "to the power of", so that's -_PHONE_ to +_PHONE_ (notice it's not symmetrical, that's because there's only one representation for zero).
int foo; // defines an integer variable called foo with an undefined initial value. You have to watch uninitialised variables carefully to avoid some possibly difficult to find bugs (e.g. the program works in a "debug" compile but not in a "release" compile, which is VERY annoying!).
int bar=-27; // defines an integer bar containing the initial value of -27. Always initialise variables! Even if just to zero.
int quux=_PHONE_; // invalid, because 9,999,999,999 is greater than the maximum value you can store (2,147,483,647). You should get an error, or at least a warning, if you try to compile this one.
int gronk=3._PHONE_; // invalid, because pi isn't a whole number. This may or may not throw an error; if not, it will assign 3 to gronk. You may get a compiler warning.

Unit Converter
Conversion formula
The conversion factor from cubic meters to fluid ounces is 33814.022558919, which means that 1 cubic meter is equal to 33814.022558919 fluid ounces:
1 m3 = 33814.022558919 fl oz
To convert 9.2 cubic meters into fluid ounces we have to multiply 9.2 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from cubic meters to fluid ounces. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 m3 → 33814.022558919 fl oz
9.2 m3 → V(fl oz)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in fluid ounces:
V(fl oz) = 9.2 m3 × 33814.022558919 fl oz
V(fl oz) = 311089.00754206 fl oz
The final result is:
9.2 m3 → 311089.00754206 fl oz
We conclude that 9.2 cubic meters is equivalent to 311089.00754206 fluid ounces:
9.2 cubic meters = 311089.00754206 fluid ounces
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 fluid ounce is equal to 3.2145140964674E-6 × 9.2 cubic meters.
Another way is saying that 9.2 cubic meters is equal to 1 ÷ 3.2145140964674E-6 fluid ounces.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine point two cubic meters is approximately three hundred eleven thousand eighty-nine point zero zero eight fluid ounces:
9.2 m3 ≅ 311089.008 fl oz
An alternative is also that one fluid ounce is approximately zero times nine point two cubic meters.

The Reactive Flex Joint (RFJ) is developed by FMC in cooperation with Statoil to reduce fatigue on wellheads. The flexjoint is landed on the BOP, and is designed to provide a counter-acting force to the bending moment applied on the wellhead by the riser load on the BOP.
The counter-acting force is generated by the movement of the riser itself, generating a bending moment which increases with the riser angle. Innova was challenged with the design of a hydraulic system for transferring the riser movement into hydraulic force to the cylinders. This involved functional analysis of the RFJ hydraulic system; hydraulic system design; design of a fluid converter system between water-based and mineral-based fluid; and manufacture and testing of the complete system, including interface panel and accumulator bank. A number of special components had to be purpose-designed for the system.
The system was designed in close cooperation with Client, successfully tested at Innova's workshop and subsequently installed and tested at on the RFJ.

(Nanowerk News) Imec realized an integrated poly-SiGe-based piezoresistive pressure sensor directly fabricated above 0.13 µm copper (Cu) -backend CMOS technology. This represents not only the first integrated poly-SiGe pressure sensor directly fabricated above its readout circuit, but also the first time that a poly-SiGe MEMS device is processed on top of Cu-backend CMOS.
Polycrystalline SiGe has emerged as a promising MEMS structural material since it provides the desired mechanical properties at lower temperatures compared to poly-Si, allowing the post-processing on top of CMOS. The MEMS-last approach is the most interesting approach for CMOS-MEMS monolithic integration as it leads to smaller die areas and enables integrating the MEMS without introducing any changes in standard foundry CMOS processes. Comparing to alternative technologies, for example using the CMOS top interconnect layers to fabricate the MEMS device, poly-SiGe offers a more generic and flexible technology for above CMOS integration, thanks to the fact that the MEMS fabrication can be completely decoupled from the CMOS fabrication.
Cross-section SEM picture of the integrated sensor. At the bottom, the two Cu metal lines of the CMOS circuit can be observed. Above, the MEMS layers (the poly-SiGe membrane and piezoresistors, the oxide sealing layer and the metal interconnects) are visible.
In the past, imec already proved the potential of poly-SiGe for MEMS above-aluminum-backend CMOS integration. However, aggressive interconnect scaling has led to the replacement of the traditional aluminum metallization by copper metallization, due to its lower resistivity and improved reliability. Our results now broaden the applications of poly-SiGe to the integration of MEMS with the advanced CMOS technology nodes.
The imec integrated sensor (fully fabricated in imec) includes a surface-micromachined piezoresistive pressure sensor, with a poly-SiGe membrane and four poly-SiGe piezoresistors, and an instrumentation amplifier fabricated using imec's 0.13 µm standard CMOS technology, with Cuinterconnects (two metal layers), oxide dielectric and tungsten-filled vias. To enable above-CMOS integration the maximum processing temperature of the complete sensor, including the poly-SiGe piezoresistors, is kept below 455°C.
Moreover, an appropriate passivation layer was included to protect the electronic circuit from the aggressive etch and deposition steps needed to fabricate the MEMS devices. The CMOS circuit showed no significant deterioration after the MEMS processing. Despite the low processing temperature, the poly-SiGe piezoresistive sensor alone (250x250µm2 membrane) showed a sensitivity of around 2.5 mV/V/bar. The integrated sensor (same sensor + Cu-based CMOS amplifier underneath) showed a sensitivity of about 158 mV/V/bar, ~64 times higher than the stand-alone sensor.

, AO, DoF etc) but we can probably get away with skipping the Albedo, Emissive parts. However you twist and turn it, you will end up with less memory bandwidth and thus better performance. We can also skip ping-ponging when doing bloom and blurs, because we can use a pixel-local cache to save a horizontal blur result when doing a vertical blur, and vice versa.
To enable this in Nebula, we need to add it to the design of a frame shader. A frame shader (perhaps they should have a renderer-specific implementation?) should need a SuperPass tag which can hold many ordinary Pass tags. A would be the Vulkan equivalent of a RenderPass, and an ordinary would be a SubPass. This would allow us to pass 'framebuffers' as input attachments within the and when the ends, we explain what will actually become resolved.
Nebula also needs (with the help of AnyFX) to enable sampler objects in the shader code. In GLSL there are two texture types, sampler1D -> samplerCubeArray and image1D -> imageCubeArray. Samplers would have a sampler attached to it from the application, and images would only be readable through texel fetches. However, in the Vulkan GLSL language there is a new type of texture called, well, texture, and it follows the same range from texture1D -> textureCubeArray. To sample such a texture, we do texture(sampler(AlbedoMap, PointSampler), UV); which is very similar to the DX11 way, which is AlbedoMap.Sample(PointSampler, UV); In the Vulkan GLSL language, we can create a sampler couple when sampling from a texture, which allows the exampled AlbedoMap to be texture sampled using many different samplers without having to exist more than once. However, Vulkan also supports pre-coupled sampler and images, so for the time being, we will stick to that syntax.

You might not know, but your liver is one of the most important organs in your digestive system. Everything you eat, drink, and even your medications, pass through your liver. So, you need to take better care of your liver and keep it healthy for your liver to do its job properly.
Your liver is responsible for a number of vital functions. It aids in the cleansing of your blood by removing toxic compounds produced by your body. It produces bile, a liquid that aids in the digestion of fat from the diet. It also stores glucose, a type of sugar that offers you a boost of energy when you do need it.
Negative Effects of Not Taking Care of Your Liver
Signs and symptoms of liver disease are not always noticeable. But when they do show signs and symptoms, they are the following:
 - Chronic fatigue
 - Nausea or vomiting
 - Jaundice
 - Abdominal pain and swelling
 - Dark urine color
 - Pale stool color
 - Loss of appetite
 - Tendency to bruise easily
 - Swelling in the legs and ankles
 - Itchy skin
If you notice these signs and symptoms, it would be best to go straight to your doctor to get yourself checked. If not, you might experience something much worse such as scarring (cirrhosis).
How Do You Prevent Damage to Your Liver?
Below are a few ways you can prevent or reduce the risk of any liver damage.
Have a Healthy Diet
High-calorie meals, saturated fat, refined carbohydrates, and sweets should all be avoided. Shellfish should never be eaten uncooked or undercooked. Fiber, which may be found in fresh fruits and vegetables, whole-grain bread, grains, and cereals, are essential for a well-balanced diet. Consume meat as well, but keep red meat, dairy, and good fats to a minimum. Drink plenty of water because hydration is crucial.
Exercise
Regular workout assists in the burning of triglycerides for fuel as well as the reduction of liver fat. Not to mention, obesity or excessive fat can cause nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
Avoid Excessively Drinking Alcohol
Alcoholic beverages can cause a variety of health issues. These can scar your liver by damaging or destroying liver cells. As a result, limit your alcohol consumption. More than eight drinks per week for women and more than 15 drinks per week for males is considered heavy or high-risk drinking.
Watch Out for Certain Types of Medications
Certain cholesterol medications might possibly produce liver problems as a side effect. When you consume far too much acetaminophen (Tylenol), it can harm your liver. Take prescription and over-the-counter medications only when they're absolutely necessary, and only in the specified dosages. Mixing drugs and alcohol is not a good idea.
Also, take note that before you start using herbal supplements with prescription or nonprescription medications, consult your doctor.
Bottomline
Prioritize your health and start taking care of your liver. Always be cautious when it comes to drinking, especially if you are on any type of medication.
Also, don't forget to regularly get check-ups from your doctor to make sure that you don't have any underlying disease, most especially because some signs and symptoms don't show up unless you are already in a critical condition.

]]>
Almost everyone has experienced feeling irritable and unable to properly perform the most basic of tasks after a few days of not sleeping well. Even just a night without enough proper sleep, you'd most likely feel sleepy and drowsy during the day. The negative effects of not getting enough sleep may build up over time, eventually wreaking havoc on your mental, physical, and emotional health. Here's how to recognize the warning signals.
Breakouts
There have been studies that have found that there is a link between the lack of sleep and breakouts. Not getting enough sleep will reflect on your skin by getting a ton of breakouts, you'll get dull and dry skin, plus, you'd look very tired even with one night of no sleep. When you don't get enough sleep, your body's immune system will start to plummet, and in return, will reflect on your skin, causing these skin problems.
Tired Eyes
Of course, if you don't get even a night's rest, your eyes will show how tired you are. Your eyes would look sullen and tired, indicating your lack of sleep the night or previous nights before. Your eyes could also become red and puffy without your needed sleep.
Eyebags or Dark Undereyes
As mentioned, not getting enough sleep will surely reflect on your eyes. And if you continuously don't get the sleep that you need, your dark circle will continue to grow bigger and darker until you are able to recuperate and let your body sleep.
Craving Junk Food
After a sleepless night, you'll find yourself wanting to eat junk food rather than something healthy. When you don't get enough sleep, your brain is more prone to want unhealthy snacks and meals. It's possible that when you're sleepy, your reasoning and decision-making aren't as keen, making it easier for other impulses to take over, making you eat junk instead.
Weight Gain
When you receive a decent night's rest, your body can correctly manage the hormones ghrelin and leptin, which impact how hungry you feel. Without them, you may feel tempted to consume more than you need, which can lead to weight gain. And, as previously said, a sleep-deprived brain is more prone to give in to cravings, prompting you to overeat and gain weight.
You'll Feel Moody
Irritability is one of the biggest signs of poor sleep. You'll feel a lot more stressed, angry, even mentally exhausted even if you haven't done anything yet. However, after a good night's rest, you'll feel a lot more relaxed and happy, being able to return to "normal."
Unfocused
Even a few hours of insufficient sleep might make you drowsy and impair your attention and memory. This may impair your performance at work or, worse, behind the wheel of your car.
Bottomline
Getting enough sleep is very important. It will affect your

asa - interpret carriage-control characters
asa [file...]
The asa utility will write its input files to standard output, mapping carriage-control characters from the text files to line-printer control sequences in an implementation-dependent manner.
The first character of every line will be removed from the input, and the following actions will be performed:
If the character removed is:
- The rest of the line will be output without change.
- A newline character will be output, then the rest of the input line.
- One or more implementation-dependent characters that causes an advance to the next page will be output, followed by the rest of the input line.
- The newline character of the previous line will be replaced with one or more implementation-dependent characters that causes printing to return to column position 1, followed by the rest of the input line. If the "+" is the first character in the input, it will have the same effect as the space character.
The action of the asa utility is unspecified upon encountering any character other than those listed above as the first character in a line.
- A pathname of a text file used for input. If no file operands are specified, the standard input will be used.
The standard input will be used only if no file operands are specified. See the INPUT FILES section.
The input files must be text files.
The following environment variables affect the execution of asa:
- Provide a default value for the internationalisation variables that are unset or null. If LANG is unset or null, the corresponding value from the implementation-dependent default locale will be used. If any of the internationalisation variables contains an invalid setting, the utility will behave as if none of the variables had been defined.
- If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the other internationalisation variables.
- Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (for example, singleas opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments and input files).
- Determine the locale that should be used to affect the format and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error.
- Determine the location of message catalogues for the processing of LC_MESSAGES.
The standard output will be the text from the input file modified as described in the DESCRIPTION section.
The following exit values are returned:
- All input files were output successfully.
- An error occurred.

The Silo Canal, or Silokanal in German, is a canal in the German state of Brandenburg. It provides a short cut for vessels navigating the River Havel, avoiding the winding and constricted navigation through the city of Brandenburg an der Havel.
The 5.26-kilometre (3.27 mi) long canal follows the route of the Silograben of 1782, and was constructed between 1907 and 1910. At its upstream end, the Vorstadtschleuse Brandenburg lock descends 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) into the lower level of the Havel, known as the Brandenburger Niederhavel, where a junction is also made with the Beetzsee. From here the canal proper skirts the northern edge of the city, eventually flowing into the Quenzsee, which links to the Plauer See and hence the River Havel and the Elbe–Havel Canal.
Whilst commercial shipping uses the Silo Canal, leisure traffic tends to use the older and smaller dimensioned Brandenburg City Canal, which diverges upstream of the Vorstadtschleuse Brandenburg and passes through the city centre, before descending through the Stadtschleuse Brandenburg lock. This traffic then follows the Brandenburger Niederhavel downstream into the Breitlingsee before rejoining the main route in the Plauer See.

Commercial gas meters are chargeable and here at DS Gas we offer some of the best prices around, which is coupled with support and advice to help you along the way.
GAS METER INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
In most cases, installing a gas meter tends to involve some background checks to confirm the gas pipe to which a meter would be fitted is suitable.
A commercial site also requires a gas supplier prior to fitting the meter. At DS Gas we can help with both of these elements at no extra charge.
WHAT AFFECTS THE COST OF INSTALLATION?
The cost of a gas meter installation varies depending on the size of the meter required. These vary greatly and start at a U6 (also known as a BK-G6 or G4). A U6 can usually deliver a peak demand / maximum consumption of 64 kW.
Meters then increase in size to a U16, U25, U40, U65, U100, U160 and continue up to much larger bespoke meters, with specially designed gas meter rigs often required.
ESTIMATE PRICE DETAILS
At DS Gas, a U6 meter will start at around the £152.60 mark (low pressure meter only) and increase according to the size of meter required and any other special requirements, such as meter housing / kiosk, concrete base, automated meter reading, or converter.
Medium pressure meters are more expensive due to increased danger and the engineer skills required to manage higher pressure gas installations.

The Red Ruffled Eggplant, sometimes called Hmong Red can be traced back to an African lineage, it was popularized in Asia and has since spread to Europe and the Americas.
Red Ruffled Eggplant basically looks like the byproduct of a Menage a trois between a tomato, pepper and eggplant - if that were at all possible.
Start seeds indoors 6 - 8 weeks before planting outdoors.
USDA Hardiness Zones 5 - 11
Germination from seed Aprox. 14 days.
Maturity at 65 to 70 days.
Spacing - 18 to 24 inches
Plant Height - 2 - 3 ft.
Size 2 - 3 inches Round
Color: Red - Orange
Soil pH: 5.5 to 6.0
Average Yields by Weight - Slightly above average by quantity.
The plants produce a ribbed red-Orange eggplant about 3" in circumference. The plants themselves reach up to 3 feet in height sometimes a tad taller.
The floral Industry uses these for decorative purposes and calls them miniature pumpkins, but they are edible and tasty when properly cooked. They can be very bitter at times and do not adapt well to all recipes.
The foliage is blue-green with purple veins and spines, which lend to their aesthetic appeal, the combination of the striking foliage with laden with Orange - Red fruit is striking. The blooms range from white to lavender.
This plant does not fare well in cool weather and should be set out in late spring.
All eggplant varieties are highly susceptible to flea beetle, attack particularly early in the season. Aphids also attack these plants and come later in the season. Varieties of Aphids that attack eggplants are generally either a light blue-green or amber.

Re: fifo and [acm]time

> fifo updates its [acm]time [...]
> Note that the same [acm]time updates do not apply to sockets.
Aside from whether this is a good idea, this difference may make sense.
A FIFO is a single shared object; multiple opens result in multiple
references to a single FIFO.
You don't say whether the socket case is SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM
For SOCK_STREAM, a socket in the filesystem is more like a cloning
device: a connection established using it as a rendezvous point results
in new sockets, distinct from the socket corresponding to the
filesystem entry (though one of them is derived from it). It is these
new sockets that the I/O occurs on and whose [acm]time would logically
be updated (if they had [acm]times, which they don't, because they
don't have [iv]nodes).
For SOCK_DGRAM, the above argument does not apply. As a matter of
theory, read()/recv()/etc on such a socket should update the atime and
write()/send()/etc should update the mtime (and, of course, in each
case the ctime as well). (I/O on the peer socket, the one that doesn't
have a filesystem entry, should not do anything of the sort, because
that socket doesn't have any [iv]node to update the [acm]time of.)
Pragmatically speaking, it's not clear to me that there's enough value
in either stance to make it worth changing whichever behaviour the
implementation happens to provide.
> And what applications would ever rely on the [acm]time of a fifo?
The only value I can see in the [acm]time of either a FIFO or an
AF_LOCAL socket "file" is to see when the relevant software last did
anything with it. This is less a matter of an application proper using
the timestamp and more one of a human who's investigating something
looking for relevant (or possibly-relevant) data.

Is one inode update per minute enough to be a significant issue?
(Sure, there will be cases where it is enough to matter. But are the
common enough that it's worth doing anything to NetBSD in consequence,
or are they outliers that call for per-system custom tuning? I can
think of at least one approach which likely would address this problem,
in cases where it _is_ A problem, already, and that's with no more than
a minute or so of thought.)

French Grammar: Reciprocal Reflexive Verbs
la grammaire française: les verbes réfléchis réciproques
Reciprocal Reflexive Verbs in French help us identify actions done by two or more people – to each other!
Reciprocal Reflexive Verbs are a certain kind of Reflexive Verb in French. Be sure to review the lesson on Reflexive Verbs first before moving on to this lesson!
French Reciprocal Reflexive Verbs take the exact same pronouns as other French reflexive verbs. BUT, Reciprocal Reflexive Verbs are ONLY used in the plural – because the action always involves more than one person/subject.
Remember! The Reciprocal Reflexive Pronoun MUST match the subject(s) involved!
NOUS : ourselves/each other
VOUS : yourselves/each other
SE (or S') : themselves/each other
Note that the pronoun SE becomes S' before any verb that starts with a vowel (such as s'acheter and s'écrire).
Once you understand how to use Reflexive Verbs in French, learning how to use Reciprocal Reflexive Verbs is really easy! Just use the reflexive/reciprocal pronoun in front of the verb (action) that you want to express is mutual. Rule of thumb: If you would use the phrase 'each other' in English, then you'll use a Reciprocal Reflexive Verb in French!
Like Reflexive Verbs, a Reciprocal Reflexive Verb is identified by the reflexive pronoun SE that precedes it in its infinitive form. Here are some common French Reciprocal Reflexive Verbs:
s'acheter : to buy (something for) each other
s'adorer : to adore each other
s'aider : to help each other
s'aimer : to love each other
se comprendre : to understand each other
se connaître : to know each other
se détester : to hate each other
se dire : to tell/say to each other
s'écrire : to write to each other
s'envoyer (des courriels) : to send each other (emails)
se mentir : to lie to each other
se parler : to speak/talk to each other
se plaire : to like each other
se poser des questions : to ask each other questions
se promettre : to promise each other
se regarder : to look at each other
se rencontrer : to meet / to run into each other
se ressembler : to look like each other
se téléphoner : to phone/call each other
se voir : to see each other
See the ADAPT section for more examples!
Jacques et Marie se regardent.
James and Marie are looking at each other.
Les étudiants s'aident beaucoup.
The students help each other a lot.
Lucie et moi, nous nous voyons souvent.
Lucie and I see each other often.
Vous vous connaissez?
Do you all know each other?

Following changes in the scale of the Air Force's missions and responsibilities, the position of Chief of the Air Group will be divided by two brigadier generals and a new officer will be appointed to oversee coordination with the Ground Forces. These represent the most significant structural changes that the Air Force has undergone in four decades.
In response to the changing nature of the threats with which the IDF will contend in the coming years, the Israel Air Force recently approved a series of historic structural adjustments that will dramatically increase the force's operational capabilities. The shifts are designed to provide the best possible response to the shifting geopolitical climate in the Middle East and to the changing nature of combat. In this context, the Air Force's staff structure will undergo significant reorganization: the Chief of IAF Air Group will be split into two positions: Chief of Aerial Operations and Chief of the Air Group, which will deal with instruction and training.
The role of Chief of Aerial Operations will be filled by Brigadier General Tomer Bar, the current commander of the Tel Nof Airbase. The current commander of the Hatzerim Airbase, Brigadier General Tal Kalman, will be appointed as Chief of the Air Group.
The Operations Division will now come under the command of the Chief of Aerial Operations and will consist of three colonels who will now oversee all operations divided into the following categories: strike operations; defensive operations (including most of the active air defense systems); and joint operations with the IDF Ground Forces.
The Air Intelligence Group will also be augmented by a new operations division which will oversee effective coordination between intelligence and operations in the Air Force.
The operations staff of the Israel Air Force has not undergone organizational restructuring on this scale for the past forty years. The historic change represents more than just an expansion of positions, it reflects the wider growing expectations and responsibilities borne by the Air Force in the current age of regional uncertainty.

and informal support services and processes that offer advice and guidance to learners in your organisation Introduction It is difficult to give a definition of the difference between formal and informal support. You will notice that some support services appear in both columns. This is because in my opinion they give both types of support. For instance a course tutor will give formal support such as the location of college facilities to students when he/she first meets then but might also operate an open-door policy for informal one to one meetings. Formal Support Services Course/subject tutor Student support services Counsellors Careers advisors Learning support fund/EMA/ALG Qualified staff to teach in specialised support areas Severe to mild learning difficulties Deaf and hearing impaired Specific learning difficulties Basic Skills needs Blind or visually impaired Learning support Interpreters (Communication support worker) Note takers Readers Enlarged or Braille material Trained First Aiders Special exam arrangements Learning resources Moodle LRC Student council Chatterbox nursery Management Unions Informal Support Services Course/subject tutor Mentor Student council Peers Family 7)Select at least one of the formal and one of the informal support service described above and analyse their effectiveness. Draw on your own experiences of these services to help you illustrate your points and suggest areas for improvement. The new college LRC is bright airy and modern and is designed to meet the needs of all its learners. It has over 700 square metres of learning space which houses books computers mini-laptops magazines periodicals videos DVDs and more. In this interactive learning environment there is a mixture of open plan group and individual study areas. Also relaxed seating and quiet individual or small group study rooms are available. Sounds impressive but is it effective I can think of two immediate improvements Firstly the zero tolerance policy of no mobile phones and noise in the LRC needs to be enforced. I have yet to spend any time in the LRC without being constantly interrupted by noise from students even in the quiet zone. Secondly it needs to open on weekends. Surely there are some learners who would like to study on a weekend or loan a book. Not to mention staff members who might like to access their offices in the building not just the LRC. There are deadlines for essays and lessons that need planned for 900am on Monday mornings? presumably the college expects this all to be done by 500pm the previous Friday Sadly in my opinion it reflects one of the biggest problems in the college? inappropriate use of PCs. The majority of students I witness in the LRC are playing games and listening to music. I would like to see the volume disabled on all machines in the college as an initial step in tackling this problem. It would also help in classrooms where there are always a few students who dont have headphones but still want to listen to music especially in key skills. Having studied at Newcastle University which has a much larger and diverse campus and where no PCs have volume except tutor machines I see no reason why this shouldnt be the case at Carlisle. A lot of my colleagues feel the same regarding PC usage and this is one of many topics that can be discussed informally with ones peers. Making good use of available resources such as other staff members can be a big help in a large organisation. When I first started at Carlisle College I was assigned a mentor who provided me with invaluable informal support that helped me cope with the stress attached to starting any new job. Things that might be overlooked in interviews and formal inductions such as where can you park your car how do you get a photocopying account or where exactly room 52 is can all be sorted out over a cup of coffee providing you can find the canteen. I know I sound a little melodramatic but I was literally dropped in at the deep end as are all key skills part-time lecturers when I started at the college and I would not have survived if it were not for the informal support of some of my peers. 8)Reflect on your performance as a teacher so far. List your strengths and weakness and propose ideas for your professional development. Try to be as specific as you can e.g. just saying youre a good communicator isnt enough. In what way too whom verbally or written General introductory statement introducing yourself as a teacher Looking to the future I foresee that in order to carry out my duties as a teacher I will have to assume many different roles and that each of these will require practice and skills that may not be taught on this course. In my teaching career thus far I have taken on the role of classroom manager disciplinarian evaluator counsellor decision-maker role-model and even surrogate parent. My effectiveness as a teacher is greatly improved through consistency efficient time management and reflection. Key strengthsKey weaknesses I am creative? development of activities use of resources My time management is efficient? lesson planning and delivery workload prioritising tasks I have a clear command of my subject knowledge? my confidence with maths techniques gives the learners confidence Clear and concise delivery I command my classes well? good rapport with students challenge inappropriate behaviour consistency Assessment and tracking of students? formative and summative assessment is checked good use of ILPs and tracking software Enthusiasm for subject? apparent in teaching Hard working Supportive? open-door policy for learners will help/share ideas with colleagues Management of resources? mainly regarding support worker/teacher. There have been instances of prolonged individual support and of support worker teaching Lesson evaluation Keeping reflective journal up to date Do not like criticism 9) Proposed ideas for developmentDetail how you intend to achieve your proposals More efficient and effective management of support worker/teachers Better lesson evaluation A separate plan for support staff could be introduced detailing responsibilities for each lesson. This can work alongside group profile which will highlight more general areas of concern. Continue to design and develop different forms of lesson evaluation until relevant and insightful comments can be elicited from learners."

Specimens in museum collections are usually preserved in a 70 per cent aqueous solution of ethyl alcohol or in a 2-4 per cent solution of formaldehyde (5-10 per cent formalin).
The great disadvantages of ethyl alcohol are that it is flammable, it volatilizes very readily, it tends to produce precipitates from sea-water, and it causes shrinkage of many specimens. Although formalin is not flammable, and it evaporates less rapidly than ethyl alcohol, precautions to prevent desiccation are still necessary; and it has the further disadvantage that it tends to oxidize to formic acid, which may dissolve calcareous structures, and it has a very strong smell and is toxic.
Both ethanol and formalin cannot be used in large volumes in public galleries because of the hazardous nature of the chemicals. So in order to display our colossal squid we will be using a glycol solution with an antimicrobial preservative to prevent microbial growth. We have been experimenting with smaller specimens in jars. Initial results indicate the system will work quite well – although there has been some discoloration, replacing the mix with a second fresh glycol solution does not result in more leaching of the colour, so our plan to replace the glycol before the specimen goes on display should work! Specimens have been preserved for months or years in glycol, but nobody has tried preserving such a large (495 kg) specimen in glycol before, so this is quite a learning curve for us!
The glycol will be diluted to between 20-30% with water. To prevent the growth of microorganisms (which could happen as the mixture contains sufficient water to support microbes) we will add a small quantity of Dowanol preservative. This will allow us to have 5,000 litres of liquid in the public galleries, while meeting safety and health requirements.
Another concern is that if the soultion becomes acidic the hooks and sucker rings will be dissolved – to prevent this happening we will 'buffer' the solution with limestone chips to keep the pH neutral. Although glycol has been used successfully for long term storage of specimens on a small scale, the use of large quantities for the colossal squid is in many ways experimental, and one reason why we will be monitoring the specimen constantly while it is on display.

I am working on a code that searches a folder gets a specific part of the file name and adds 1 to a file counter. There are some files in tehre that have a special character that indicates that is is only half. I ahve got it to count the full ones but can not figure out a way to get the half ones to count. The special character that is in the names to inficate half is H. If someone could please help me figure this out it would help increase my production time.
def bedCount(pathname, bednumber):
 filecount = 0
 for file in os.listdir(pathname):
 if fnmatch.fnmatch (file, ''+bednumber+''):
 filecount = filecount+1
 return filecount
countbeds=bedCount(filestart, 'B')
print countbeds
I'am using different imports and python 3
import tkinter.filedialog as tk_FileDialog
from tkinter import*
fileCount = 0
for x in range(0,10) #read as many as you want
 f = tk_FileDialog.askopenfile(mode='r') #Or what file your trying to open
 fileContents = f.readlines(1) #Or what lines you want to read
 if fileContents == 'H':
 fileCount += 0.5
 elif fileContents == 'h':
 fileCount += 0.5
 else:
 fileCount += 1
print "File count was", fileCount
This is if the first letter of the filename is the indicator otherwise regex required.

 for file in os.listdir(pathname):
 if file[0] == 'B':

But when practical, Intel's goal is to ultimately include sensors inside devices, O'Shea said. Intel is already planning a radical redesign for future chips through a technology called near-threshold voltage (NTV), in which CPUs can operate at extremely low voltage levels.
Intel's goal is also to make cities smarter, and the company has a number of research projects under way that use sensor kits for energy, traffic light and gas station management. The chips include components that process data at the hardware level, but the researchers are complementing the sensors with algorithms that mine and analyze the data.
Intel hopes to ultimately make more money off these projects. O'Shea said. The data generated by sensors requires more servers to process, which could help Intel sell more chips, O'Shea said.

I understand that to get computer name we can access to that server and execute this command via cmd.
enter image description here
But is it possible to get the remote computer name via ip address? all these ip address is internal ip.
This is not a PowerShell specific issue or limitation. This is a very common network admin thing to do.
As noted by BACON you can use nslookup, but Windows also provides.Net namespaces and PowerShell provides DNS cmdlets for this use case.
It has also been asked and answered many times on Stackoverflow. It's a very well documented thing on the MS docs site, TechNet, MSDN, and other blogs. For example
Powershell : Resolve Hostname from IP address and vice versa
# Find machine name from IP address:
$ipAddress= ""
Resolve Hostname to IP Address:
$machineName= "DC1"
$hostEntry= [System.Net.Dns]::GetHostByName($machineName)
Resolve Hostname for set of IP addresses from text file:
Use the below powershell script to find machine name for multiple IP addresses.
First create the text file ip-addresses.txt which includes one IP address in
each line. You will get the machinename list in the txt file machinenames.txt.
Get-Content C:\ip-addresses.txt |
 $hostname = ([System.Net.Dns]::GetHostByAddress($_)).Hostname
 if($? -eq $True) {
 $_ +": "+ $hostname >> "C:\machinenames.txt"
 else {
 $_ +": Cannot resolve hostname" >> "C:\machinenames.txt"
Find Computer name for set of IP addresses from CSV:
Use the below powershell script to get hostname for multiple IP addresses from
csv file. First create the csv file ip-addresses.csv which includes the column
IPAddress in the csv file. You will get the hostname and IP address list in the
csv file machinenames.csv.
Import-Csv C:\ip-Addresses.csv |
 $hostname = ([System.Net.Dns]::GetHostByAddress($_.IPAddress)).Hostname
 if($? -eq $False){
 $hostname="Cannot resolve hostname"
 New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{
 IPAddress = $_.IPAddress
 HostName = $hostname
} |
Export-Csv 'D:\Temp\machinenames.csv' -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8
There is also a very simple cmdlet Resolve-DnsName.
The result has a lot of detail. NameHost is what you want:

Hopes raised over Spitfires buried in Myanmar
Hopes of finding a forgotten squadron of Second World War Spitfires, originally designed and built in Southampton, have soared after the discovery of a crate which may hold the key to the mystery.
As previously reported, the lost Spitfires, entombed in boxes, were buried at various allied bases on the orders of the British high command at the end of the war in South East Asia.
Aviation enthusiasts, who have spent the last 15 years searching Burma, now known as Myanmar, for the buried Spitfires, have now discovered a crate in a swampy region of the country.
A camera has been inserted into the box but the images only show muddy brown water but researchers know the Spitfires were buried in similar crates and are convinced they have found a plane, given the size of the container.
According to some reports anything up to 140 of the famed fighter, designed by R. J. Mitchell at the former Supermarine works at Woolston in the 1930s, could lay hidden underground in Burma.
The quest to find the lost Spitfires was led by Lincolnshire farmer, 62-year-old David Cundall, who explained how the legendary fighters came to be buried at the end of the Second World War.
"Basically nobody received any orders to take these airplanes back to UK," said Mr Cundall.
"They were just surplus and one way of disposing them was to bury them. The war was over, everybody wanted to go home, nobody wanted anything, so you just buried it and went home. That was it."
Eventually the aircraft could be re-assembled and then flown for the first time, after being lost and buried for almost 70 years.
Today only a handful of Spitfires, worth anything up to £2m each, remain in flying condition.
Hidden below ground in an old bomb crater, the fighters have yet to be fully examined but it is hoped they are still in pristine condition, protected by purpose-built cases and wrapped in waxed paper.
During a visit to Burma, the Prime Minister David Cameron secured the historic deal, which will see the aircraft dug up and shipped back to the UK.
A Downing Street spokesman said: "The Spitfire9 is arguably the most important plane in the history of aviation, playing a crucial role in the Second World War.
"It is hoped this will be an opportunity to work with the reforming Burmese government to uncover, restore and display these fighter planes and get them gracing the skies of Britain once again.''
Conceived by the design engineer R. J. Mitchell at the Supermarine Aviation Works in Woolston, Southampton, the Spitfire became the symbol of the nation's dogged determination during the Second World War when pilots fought and won control of the skies during the Battle of Britain.
Throughout the conflict the Spitfire became the backbone of RAF Fighter Command, and saw action in Europe, the Mediterranean, the Pacific and South East Asia.
