lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 9 Apr 29 13:20 /dev/work -> /dev/hdb1

7.1.1. Hotplug Devices
A program called hotplug performs actions when a system event, such as hardware being added or
removed, takes place while the system is running. For example, if a USB hard drive or a USB media
card reader is attached to the system, hotplug notifies users by logging a message in the system log
file (/var/log/messages) and loads the proper kernel modules so the device works.
When a PCI, USB, or IEEE 1394 (also known as FireWire) device is plugged in, the hotplug scripts
also restart devlabel so that the removable storage media receives a user-defined device name (such
as /dev/usbcard), and optionally it can automatically mount the storage device.
After inserting the USB card reader into the USB port of the computer, issue the following command
as root (where /dev/sda1 is the device name for the media card and /dev/usbcard is the user-
defined device name to use):
devlabel add -d /dev/sda1 -s /dev/usbcard --automount
Chapter 7. User-Defined Device Names 29
This commands adds an entry for the mount point to /etc/sysconfig/devlabel and creates a
symbolic link from /dev/usbcard to /dev/sda1. The --automount option to devlabel specifies
that the device should be automatically mounted when devlabel restarts if an entry for it is located
in /etc/fstab and if the device exists (a device with the same UUID is found).
The updfstab is a program that scans the IDE and SCSI buses for new devices and adds entries to
/etc/fstab for them if entries do not already exist. It also adds entries for USB devices since they
appear as SCSI devices. Refer to the updfstab man page for more information.
When a USB device is inserted, hotplug runs the updfstab program, which adds an entry to
/etc/fstab for the storage device (such as the media card) if it exists. (If a card reader without
a card in it is inserted, an entry is not added.) The line added contains the actual device name (such
as /dev/sda1) and the kudzu option. The kudzu option tells Kudzu 1 that it can remove the line if
the device does not exist. Since the line is required by devlabel, the kudzu option must be removed
so the line remains in the file. Also change the device name to the devlabel device name (such as
/dev/usbcard) and create the mount point (such as /mnt/usbcard).
After modifying the line, it should look similar to the following:
/dev/usbcard /mnt/usbcard auto noauto,owner 0 0
Because of --automount, when devlabel is restarted, the storage media in the USB card reader
device is mounted in /mnt/usbcard when the USB device is plugged into the computer. The trick is
that when the USB card reader is plugged into the computer, the card must already be in the reader. If
not, devlabel can not find the storage device, and thus it can not automatically mount it.
If the USB card reader is already plugged in without a card, when the card is inserted, run the com-
mand devlabel restart as root to mount the media card.
7.2. How It Works
The command devlabel restart is called from the /etc/rc.sysinit script when the system is
booted as well as by the appropriate scripts in the /etc/hotplug/ directory.
The restart option to devlabel reads the list of devices in the configuration file
(/etc/sysconfig/devlabel) and follows the symbolic links to determine if the device still exists
in its former location, such as /dev/hdb1. If the symbolic link is invalid, an attempt is made to find
the new location of the disk based on the disks UUID. If a disk with the same UUID is found, the
symbolic link is updated to point to the new location of the drive, the configuration file is updated
with the new location, and a message similar to the following is displayed:
Device name incorrectly detected for symlink /dev/work!
The device /dev/hdb1 is now /dev/hdd1.
The symlink /dev/work will now point to the new device name.
If a disk with the UUID is not found (for example, the disk was removed), the following is displayed:
The device /dev/hdb1 no longer seems to exist. Because of this, the
symlink /dev/work -> /dev/hdb1 will not be available. The reference
to this symlink in /etc/sysconfig/devlabel will be ignored.
The entry for the device is not removed from the configuration file; it is just ignored for this instance.
1. Kudzu is a hardware probing tool run at system boot time to determine what hardware has been added or
removed from the system.

Chapter 8.
Access Control Lists
Files and directories have permission sets for the owner of the file, the group associated with the
file, and all other users for the system. However, these permission sets have limitations. For example,
different permissions can not be configured for different users. Thus, Access Control Lists (ACLs)
were implemented.
The Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 kernel provides ACL support for the ext3 file system and NFS-
exported file systems. ACLs are also recognized on ext3 file systems accessed via Samba.
Along with support in the kernel, the acl package is required to implement ACLs. It contains the
utilities used to add, modify, remove, and retrieve ACL information.
The cp and mv commands copy or move any ACLs associated with files and directories.
8.1. Mounting File Systems
Before using ACLs for a file or directory, the partition for the file or directory must be mounted with
ACL support. If it is a local ext3 file system, it can mounted with the following command:
mount -t ext3 -o acl <device-name> <partition>
For example:
mount -t ext3 -o acl /dev/hdb3 /work
Alternatively, if the partition is listed in the /etc/fstab file, the entry for the partition can include
the acl option:
LABEL=/work /work ext3 acl 1 2
If an ext3 file system is accessed via Samba and ACLs have been enabled for it, the ACLs are rec-
ognized because Samba has been compiled with the --with-acl-support option. No special flags
are required when accessing or mounting a Samba share.
8.1.1. NFS
By default, if the file system being exported by an NFS server supports ACLs and the NFS client can
read ACLs, ACLs are utilized by the client system.
To disable ACLs on NFS shares when configuring the server, include the no_acl option in the
/etc/exports file. To disable ACLs on an NFS share when mounting it on a client, mount it with
the no_acl option via the command line or the /etc/fstab file.
8.2. Setting Access ACLs
There are two types of ACLs: access ACLs and default ACLs. An access ACL is the access control list
for a specific file or directory. A default ACL can only be associated with a directory; if a file within
the directory does not have an access ACL, it uses the rules of the default ACL for the directory.
Default ACLs are optional.
32 Chapter 8. Access Control Lists
ACLs can be configured:
1. Per user
2. Per group
3. Via the effective rights mask
4. For users not in the user group for the file
The setfacl utility sets ACLs for files and directories. Use the -m option to add or modify the ACL
of a file or directory:
setfacl -m <rules> <files>
Rules (<rules>) must be specified in the following formats. Multiple rules can be specified in the
same command if they are separated by commas.

Rad-X is a chem in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas.
Rad-X is an anti-radiation chemical that can significantly reduce the danger of irradiated areas. When combined with an advanced radiation suit, Rad-X can create near-immunity to radiation, even at moderate medical skill levels.
Rad-X is reasonably common and can be used frequently. Like stimpaks and RadAway, Rad-X is non-addictive, and its effectiveness is controlled by the Medicine skill. Taking multiple doses of Rad-X does not increase the total radiation resistance (the effects do not stack). Instead, the drug's active time is lengthened (the effective time stacks).
Medicine skill effectEdit
10+30 % Radiation resistance for 4m
20+35 % Radiation resistance for 4m
30+40 % Radiation resistance for 4m
40+45 % Radiation resistance for 4m

90+70 % Radiation resistance for 4m
100+75 % Radiation resistance for 4m
Notable locationsEdit
Fallout 3Edit
Fallout: New VegasEdit
No combination of Rad-X and radiation resistant clothing will grant a total immunity to radiation, as Radiation Resistance caps off at 85%. Any irradiated area will, at the very least, have a persistent +1 rads effect even at the highest levels of radiation resistance, meaning the player will never be able to survive longer than 16 minutes and 40 seconds without the use of a radiation removal item (or 17 minutes 32 seconds with the Rad Absorption perk).

text: The nutrient intakes and circulating vitamin levels of 32 patients with rheumatoid arthritis who were treated with methotrexate were evaluated over a 6-month period. Dietary data were obtained and blood was drawn prior to the initiation of and following 12 and 24 weeks of methotrexate therapy. More than 50% of the patients had food intakes providing less than 67% of the recommended dietary allowance for zinc, vitamin E, folic acid, pyridoxine, and magnesium. Patients 51 years or older had better nutrient intakes than patients less than 51 years. Of the patients, 22% consumed vitamin supplements at the time they were recruited for the study. Mean circulating vitamin levels measured over the 6-month period were within normal limits. Our findings agree with previously published reports that patients with rheumatoid arthritis particularly the subpopulation taking methotrexate, consume diets that are marginal in some nutrients. Additional research needs to be done to identify more sensitive nutrient assays and to establish more definitively the nutrient needs of patients with rheumatoid arthritis taking several therapeutic agents.

Recipes for Grilled Vegetables
Updated on May 17, 2010
Really Great Grilling Tips Any One Can Learn
Vegetarian grilling may seem oxymoronic-grilling means hotdogs, hamburgers and steak right? But grilling is actually a great way to cook vegetables and to turn out tasty vegetarian meals. Grilling enhances the naturally delicious flavors of vegetables.
Cooking methods are divided into three groups: moist heat methods like boiling and steaming, dry heat methods such as grilling and baking and combination methods, like braising where both moist and dry heat are used. When cooking, using moist heat methods, the temperature never really goes above the boiling point of water or 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Dry heat methods, on the other hand, allow the food to get much hotter and as a result sugars caramelize (turn brown and change flavor) and more water is lost as it evaporates out of the food. The combination of water loss and caramelization results in more intense flavors.
Sadly, all too often grilled vegetables are served blackened and bitter or essentially raw and either way they're unappealing. So what's the key to delicious grilled vegetables? Understanding the proper technique. When armed with the right information, it's easy to prepare mouth watering, juicy vegetables that are perfectly tender and never over-caramelized.
First things first: size and shape matters. Vegetable kabobs may look nice just before they go on the grill, but they rarely taste good once cooked. The problem is the shape of the pieces, and the fact that they are packed together on a skewer.
The best way to achieve perfectly grilled vegetables is to cut them into large flat pieces that are even thickness throughout. Once cooked these large pieces can be cut into smaller shapes and used in a variety of dishes. This method works particularly well with the summer squashes and eggplant. Their natural shape allows you to cut them into long slabs that are about 3/8-inch thick.
Other vegetables are more difficult to handle because they don't have a uniform shape and size to begin with, but once you master cutting them into the proper shapes they are a cinch to grill.
Onions should be cut into 3/8-inch to 1/2-inch thick rounds, parallel to the equator. Make sure to start from one end and not by cutting the onion in half first. Then skewer the slices with a toothpick or small skewer to keep the rings together.
Thin vegetables such as asparagus and scallions and watery vegetables like tomatoes and tomatillos grill best when left whole.
High water content greens like bok choy and romaine lettuce grill very nicely, simply trim off a bit of the bottom but leave the core intact and soak them in cold water to remove any sand or dirt.
Endive, fennel and others with a more substantial core, can be sliced lengthwise; this allows the core to hold the vegetable together while grilling. Most cores can be eaten but, if you desire, the core can be removed once the vegetable is cooked.
Bell peppers are often cut into small shapes and skewered but they never cook well using this method. Instead, cut off the top and bottom of the pepper, remove the core, then cut the pepper in half from top to bottom. This way you end up with two flat rectangles that are grilled skin side down.
Mind the flavor. Vegetables must be brushed with oil before grilling since, unlike meat, they don't contain any fat that allows them to self-baste. And since you have to add extra calories from fat, you might as well enjoy them. Forego the vegetable oil and use a nice tasty olive oil instead.
Don't forget the salt and pepper! It's okay to cook a burger without any seasoning-its just going to get drenched in ketchup anyway-but your vegetables won't. Make sure to season them before they go on the grill and taste and adjust the seasoning once they are finished cooking.
The best way to oil and season vegetables is to lay them in a single layer on a cookie sheet, brush them with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper. Turn them over and repeat on the other side. You can also load them into a zip lock bag, add the oil and seasonings and toss them. This method works better with some vegetables better than others (onions and fennel tend to fall apart) and, unless you wash them, you wind up tossing yet one more plastic bag into a landfill.
Marinades are great, but avoid those that contain sugar, which caramelizes quickly and causes the exterior to blacken too much. When cooking a mixture grilling different vegetables together, never marinate all of them. The result is a plate of food that all tastes exactly the same. The great thing about vegetables is that they have such a wonderful assortment of flavors; by marinating them all together you lose the interest and the dish becomes boring. It is better to choose one or two to marinate and allow the others to retain their natural flavors.
Use both moist heat and dry heat to cook your vegetables. On the up side, the dry heat of grilling adds great flavor, on the down side, its way too easy to end up with overly blackened and dehydrated vegetables. In order to cook vegetables throughout, you may end up having to leave them on the grill until they are overdone on the outside. There is an easy solution, grill them long enough to have nice markings on both sides-then take them off the grill, place them in a bowl or pot and cover them tightly with plastic wrap so that no steam can escape, and leave them for 5-10 minutes. This way you create a warm moist heat environment that finishes cooking the vegetable through, without allowing them to get any browner or drier. Onions, fennel, peppers, tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant are especially delicious when cooked in this manner.
Finally, cook more than you need. If you are going to go through the process of lighting the grill, you might as well cook more vegetables than you need for a single meal. Use them in omelets and sandwiches, to make pizza or grain and pasta salads. Perfectly grilled vegetables are a welcome addition to almost meal.
Grilled Endive Salad with Golden Raisins
Yield: 4 side-dish servings
1/4 cup pine nuts
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Pinch salt
Several grinds black pepper, to taste
2 Belgian endives, halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon olive oil
6 cups loosely packed torn red lettuce leaves
1/4 cup golden raisins
Place a single layer of pine nuts in a small cast-iron skillet on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Shake the pan frequently. (The nuts will become slightly golden and emit a nutty aroma.) Remove the nuts from the pan and set aside until needed.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, mustard, salt and black pepper. Set aside the dressing.
Meanwhile, preheat the grill to medium-high. Use a pastry brush to brush both sides of the endive with some of the olive oil. Place the endive on the grill, cut sides down. Cook for about 2 minutes, baste with some more of the oil, and turn with tongs. Continue to cook for about 2 more minutes. (The endive will wilt slightly and develop grill marks.) Remove the endive from the grill.
Place the lettuce in a large bowl and drizzle with the dressing. Toss to combine. Distribute between 4 salad plates. Place one grilled endive half atop the lettuce on each plate. Sprinkle with equal amounts of raisins and pine nuts. Serve immediately.
Baby Bok Choy with Lemon Miso Sauce
Yield: 6 side-dish servings
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons white miso
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 teaspoons cornstarch
1 pound baby bok choy
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
Pre-heat the grill to medium high. In a small saucepan, whisk together the lemon juice, miso, garlic, and 1/4 cup of water. Place on the stovetop over low heat and cook until steaming.
Place 2 tablespoons water in a small jar with a tight-fitting lid and add the cornstarch. Cover tightly and shake to dissolve. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the saucepan and cook over medium-low heat until thickened, about 1 minute (do not overcook it or it will get gummy). Remove the saucepan from the heat and set aside in a warm spot.
Rinse the bok choy and shake to remove some of the water. Cut any large heads in half lengthwise. Place the bok choy in a plastic bag and drizzle with the sesame oil. Twist the bag to seal, allowing some air to remain in the bag. Toss gently to coat the bok choy evenly. Place the bok choy on the grill and grill for 3 to 5 minutes, turning frequently, until the leaves are limp and slightly charred. Remove the bok choy from the grill and place on a serving platter. Drizzle with the sauce and serve immediately.

The Box Turtle of North America is one of the most common and frequently seen turtle species in the wild.
Many often mistake the North American box turtle for land turtles because they look similar. Although they may look alike, the Box Turtle of North America is an American pond turtle family member.
There are many interesting aspects to the life of the Box Turtle in North America. This article from DailyPets.net will introduce you to some fascinating facts about the Box Turtle of North America, including how long these little turtles can live.
The lifespan of the Box Turtle of North America
Currently, there are four species of Box Turtles in North America. Depending on the species, the shells of box turtles may have various colors.
Some box turtles may have brown-colored shells, while others have shells with yellow patches. The shell of the Box Turtle covers most of its body and has ridges. The Box Turtle of North America also has webbed toes and a hooked beak. The length of a Box Turtle in North America is approximately 6 inches.
Their natural habitat is near grasslands, fields, and ponds. They prefer warmer weather, seeking shade if it becomes too hot. They search for food on cooler days, enjoying fruits, berries, flowers, and insects.
If a North American box turtle feels threatened, it will retract into its shell and close it securely. The box turtle's shell has extremely high flexibility, making it difficult for predators to attack.
Box turtles also live secretive lives, enjoying privacy by hiding in wood crevices or digging deep into sand and mud. Some species of Box Turtles in North America even hibernate during colder months when food is scarce and harder to find.
How Long Do Box Turtles of North America Live?
The average lifespan of the Box Turtle of North America in the wild is 40 to 50 years. However, North American box turtles have been known to live up to 100 years in captivity. The environment plays a crucial role in their lifespan. Unfortunately, counting growth rings on a box turtle's shell in the wild is not a reliable way to estimate their age.
There are several North American box turtle species, each with different lifespans. Here are some species, along with their average lifespans:
- Desert Box Turtle: 10 to 50 years.
- Eastern Box Turtle or Land Turtle: 25 to 35 years in the wild and possibly over 100 years in captivity.
- Florida Box Turtle: 25 to 30 years in the wild and over 50 years in captivity.
- Yucatan Box Turtle (not widely studied): Estimated to live over 100 years in the wild.
Life Cycle of the North American box turtle
The life cycle of the box turtle is quite similar to many other wild turtle species. Let's examine each stage in detail:
The North American box turtle prefers to lay eggs in water or mud. The female box turtle constructs a nest for laying eggs, roughly the size of the turtle herself and deep enough for egg deposition. It takes 6 to 8 weeks for the box turtle eggs to hatch.
After 6 to 8 weeks, the hatchlings begin to emerge. The female box turtle does not stay with her eggs during this time. The hatchlings slowly start to crack open the eggshells, which can take 2 or 3 days. Eventually, when they have emerged from the eggs and dug their way out of the nest, they are free to explore and must fend for themselves.
Box turtles reach maturity and begin mating between 10 and 20. This is also when they display their most vivid and vibrant colors. Box Turtles of North America began seeking other turtles for mating during this period.
Factors Affecting the Lifespan of North American box turtle
Although box turtles can live long, only a small percentage reach adulthood. Here are some factors that can negatively impact the lifespan of North American box turtles:
The natural habitat of box turtles is being destroyed in various ways, such as the destruction of wetlands, river channel alterations, and changes in the landscape.
Box turtles are extremely sensitive to changes in water quality, and living in polluted or dirty water can have adverse effects. Climate change and air and water pollution also begin to harm them. Additionally, the expansion of cities, roads, and towns…
Invasive plant species can affect the lifespan of box turtles. The turtle population can be severely reduced when bacteria, viruses, and parasites are affected.
Female box turtles can lay thousands of eggs throughout their lives, but if they become prey, they won't be able to lay eggs.
One of the major threats to box turtles today is the increasing demand for them as pets. However, many people lack the necessary knowledge and research before obtaining them. If you want to keep a box turtle as a pet, it's crucial to learn and thoroughly research before starting.

Boise State's Intermountain Bird Observatory has gained lots of fans in the local community, including Zamzows Inc., the longtime Boise lawn, garden and pet store.
Zamzows organized a January fundraiser in which it pledged to give $1 for every bag of wild bird food sold to the IBO. On Friday, Feb. 8, Zamzow's presented the observatory with a check for $2,300.
"The Intermountain Bird Observatory will use this donation to help us connect more students to our research programs, so that they can meet real scientists and learn about bird conservation in action," said Heidi Carlisle, education and outreach director.
If you'd like to support similar efforts, the observatory welcomes donations for its annual bird banding projects. Hummingbird banding takes place each year in Idaho City. Songbird banding takes place at the observatory's station near the Boise River. The IBO also runs the Lucky Peak banding station to monitor songbirds, hawks, and owls. The banding projects reach more than 2,000 people, and students from more than 20 schools each year, said Carlisle. The projects rely heavily, and in some cases entirely, on donations.
The Intermountain Bird Observatory (formerly Idaho Bird Observatory) is a nonprofit academic research and community outreach program of the university focused on impacting human lives and contributing to conservation through a combination of research, education, and community engagement.

Reactivity of olefins in the hydrodesulfurization of FCC gasoline over CoMo sulfide catalyst
To achieve selective hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of fluid catalytic-cracked (FCC) gasoline for producing sulfur-free gasoline (S < 10 ppm), the reactivity of various olefins contained in FCC gasoline on CoMoP/Al2O3 sulfide catalysts was investigated. Isomerization of the CC double bond from the terminal position to an internal position was observed. The steric hindrance around the CC double bond suppresses the reactivity of olefin hydrogenation. The sulfidation temperature of the catalyst has a major influence on olefin hydrogenation active sites. Addition of the appropriate amount of cobalt (Co/Mo ratio approximately 0.6) contributes to the suppression of olefin hydrogenation at high reaction temperature (260 °C). From the comparison of catalytic performance and characterization of our CoMoP/Al2O3 catalyst with an analogous commercial catalyst, it is suggested that the hydrogenation of olefins depends not only on the state of the Mo CUS but also on the steric effects of both olefin structure and MoS2 crystalline structure.

Investigating The Heat Of Combustion Of Alcohols.
Extracts from this document...
Introduction
Arunesh Kumaravel Chemistry Coursework
Investigating The Heat Of Combustion Of Alcohols
Aim:
 To investigate the amount of heat given out by burning alcohols. I will do this by working out how much heat energy is produced per gram of alcohol. This will then be converted into heat energy per mole of alcohol.
Introduction:
Alcohols are part of a HOMOLOGOUS SERIES. The general formula for an alcohol is CnH2n+1OH. All alcohols have hydroxide ions, which acts as the functional group. The functional group is the group of atoms responsible for the characteristic reactions of a compound. Out of all the alcohols, ETHANOL is the most important. It is produced by fermentation or by the hydration of ethene. It will be interesting to see how ethanol burns with a flame. However I will also be testing to see how well methanol, propanol and pentanol burns with a flame.
Hypothesis:
 I predict that all the reactions will be exothermic. This is from the knowledge I already have about the combustion of alcohols. I have worked out from using bond energies that in the combustion of alcohols, energy is released. With the alcohols a reaction can be written showing the combustion of the alcohol. I will go through each alcohol we used and make a prediction about the amount of energy it will give of using bond energies. For methanol the equation would be:
Methanol + oxygen carbon dioxide + water + energy
CH3OH + 3/2O2 (g) CO2 (g) + 2H2O (g) + energy
We can see that there are a certain amount of bonds that need to be broken and a certain number that are made. I will now analyse these bonds.
METHANOL-: C-H bonds- 435kJ per mole
H-O bonds- 464 kJ per mole
C-O bonds- 358 kJ per mole
OXYGEN-: O-O double bonds- 497 kJ per mole

Middle
 oC. However all the other factors will be attempted to be controlled to the best of our abilities.
VOLUME OF WATER-
To make sure that the volume of water is constant throughout the experiment, we will accurately measure out 50mm of water in the measuring cylinder making sure the same person measures out the water each time.
LENGTH OF WICK-
This is difficult to control since the volume of alcohol in each spirit burner will decrease as the experiment goes on since other groups will be using the spirit burner. This means that the length of the wick may vary. This may cause anomalies in our experiment but hopefully we can still obtain as accurate results as possible.
BUILD UP OF SOOT-
To make sure that there is as little amount of soot on the copper calorimeter as possible we will clean it after every test thoroughly. Water will be run over the copper calorimeter and will be dried before we test the next alcohol. This is to ensure that as much heat energy as possible heats the water to ensure our experiment is as fair as possible.
DISTANCE OF COPPER CALORIMETER-
We must keep the distance of the copper calorimeter from the spirit burner the same after each experiment. This is to ensure that as little heat energy as possible is lost or not used to heat the can. This also ensures that all the alcohols have equal distance from the copper calorimeter so the same amount of heat energy is lost to the surroundings. I will keep the same distance by keeping the boss in the same place on the retort stand at all times and only loosening the clamp to take out the copper calorimeter to clean.

Conclusion
Improvements:
We could have improved the experiment by concentrating on how to lower the heat loss. Having a lower temperature change could have done this. This would have lowered the heat loss since heat loss is proportional to temperature change. This means that the higher the temperature change, the more heat lost to surroundings. Therefore if we had a lower temperature change, less heat energy would have been lost to the surrounding.
If we had found out the heat capacity of the copper calorimeter, we could have used this value to work in the formula to find out the amount of heat absorbed by it. This value would have been part of the heat energy given of by the alcohol even though some of it would have been passed on to the water. If we had taken this into account, our results would have been a lot more closer to out predicted values.
We could have also had an evaporation lid with a hole in it to allow the thermometer to go through it. This would have lowered heat escaping through convection or evaporation lid.
We could have also made sure that we have draught shield all the way round the experiment. This would have made sure that no draughts can affect our experiment and thus this would lower heat loss.
The experiment could have been repeated more times to ensure that we obtain a better average and thus we would obtain a smooth straight line.
Extension:
We could have taken the experiment further in a variety of ways. Below I have listed a few ways:
 - Compare the energy produced by alcohols to energy produced by alkanes.
 - Do the experiment with a larger variety of alcohols, with more carbon atoms.
 - Tested the alcohols against different volumes of water.

Mathematical Modeling of Human Activity on Forested Areas from Point Objects of Railway Infrastructure in a Two-Dimensional Statement
(*) Corresponding author
Human activity causes a large quantity of wildfires in areas close to the location of different industrial or transport infrastructure. All the infrastructure facilities of JSC Russian Railways may be classified into linear, point and area sources of human activity. This work purpose is to suggest an approach for predicting, assessing, and monitoring the human activity on forested areas based on a deterministic mathematical model. Partial differential equations have been solved using the finite difference method. The program realization is executed in the RAD Studio software. Expressions like the heat conduction equation are used to describe the propagation of human activity around railway facilities. Different railway objects have produced different distribution of the virtual (possible) number of forest fires (VNF) caused by the different level of human activity. Different sizes of the railway facilities have also showed that a highest VNF is predicted for large one. The proposed mathematical model is applicable to predict wildfires due to human activity. This paper discusses the possibility of predicting forest fire dangers near point infrastructure facilities of JSC Russian Railways. The results obtained are part of a large project aimed to develop methods for predicting, assessing, and monitoring forest fire danger near infrastructure facilities of Russian Railways.

Building Visual Studio Solutions from Batch File In my previous post, Building Visual Studio Solutions from the Command Line , I described the basic steps to be performed when one of my projects is to be built completely, or code needs to be generated.

The > operator sends, or redirects, stdout or stderr to another file. Substrings in Windows Batch Files Posted on October 27, 2006 by Luke Maciak tein. BTW, you will be using the batch file as your WoW shortcut. It requires a resource that references the flat file, the number of lines to skip at the beginning of the file (typically just the file headers), and a line mapper that converts an individual line into an object. It offers a DOS function collection, tutorials and examples, plus a forum to discuss related topics. By default echo is turned on for any batch file. bat with those arguments - sending you into an infinite recursion that doesn't end until you break it. So you should provide the full path, quoted and using the extension to the cmd. While working on some client-side code at Oozou, I often have to rename a lot of image files. It seems like the batch file is not run at all because in the sensor logs I get zero output. I have a windows service that runs a batch file. The second method is to use the %ERRORLEVEL% variable providing compatibility with Windows 2000 or newer. I'm currently working on an AI in batch, I've used ::pause >nul before but I'm not exactly sure what it does. cnd find, it actually checks to see if the errorlevel is greater than 0. 1) Add a title to batch file which you want to kill by adding this line at the top.

You can manually cut/copy and paste the files in the original folder to overwrite them. Nul provides no data to any process. cmd file name extension. I need Task Scheduler to launch it so the computer can be brought out of standby/sleep. I just wanted to post a sample batch file that shows you how to detect the running version of Microsoft's Windows operating system in case you need to run specific commands based on which OS the batch file is run on. The Power of PC/MS-DOS Batch Files Part 1: Getting Started One of the keys to getting the most from your IBM-compatible computer is learning to make the most of the operating system. If and only if the batch file's first argument is the word. Hope this helped. I have a batch file to do this for me, but I want to run it in a job. If the batch detects that it has no admin rights (which can be done easily by checking the %errorlevel% variable after a command like 'at > nul') I want the batch to ask for elevation before it proceeds.

Three of Earth (Pentacles)
Arcane Glyphs Tarot.
It is very difficult to learn and notice the parts of the Page of Earth (Pentacles). That is Two, Three and Four of Earth (Pentacles). These parts are fully active from the first day of man, unlike other functions, which the person must learn and develop.
Three of Earth (Pentacles) - Arcane Glyphs Tarot
Three of Earth (Pentacles) is active 24 hours a day, just like the Two of Earth (Pentacles). The difference is that the Three of Earth (Pentacles) is more busy with physical system maintenance.
It is a monotonous activity, not in-depth tests and treatments. That is, the Three of Earth (Pentacles) perform an automatic check and repair of the system.
In the event of a more unusual problem, the Three of Earth (Pentacles) do not know and can not handle.
In these cases, the problem is addressed by other parts responsible for it.
Because the operations of the Three of Earth (Pentacles) are entirely mechanical and do not require attention and intervention, intervention in this function, or an attempt to bring attention to this function, can cause damage. If a person succeeds for some reason to change something in this function, he should change all the other parts associated with this function. Otherwise, there will be damage.
The Three of Earth (Pentacles) also represent people, who usually focus on what is related to the physical world.
They will deal with what is related to their physical bodies, healthy food, healthy living, energy-saving, and so on. Usually, their lives will be filled with rutin and simplicity.
The Three of of Earth (Pentacles) enjoys health care, and may even try to persuade and influence others to act like him.
Sometimes the Three of Earth (Pentacles) tends to exaggerate his health pursuits, and it can manifest itself in various forms, sometimes even hypochondria.

Issue/Introduction
Desciption:
Is it possible to intercept the message 'EQQE036I' and to send an SNMP Trap to a Distributed Platform ? The message contains a 'JOBNAME' which may vary. The message 'EQQE036I' already has a Message Rule defined in Eventview, but the required information comes from the Minor Line of the message, because message 'EQQE036I' is a Multiline WTO.
Solution:
You need to consider the Multilines (Major Lines and Minor Lines) as a single line when searching for a value. In the 'Status Monitor Message' field, available in ResourceView, it is possible to address the entire Multiline WTO Messages through one definition.
To implement this, create a ResourceView Rule, for example for a Logical Resource, with the 'Status Monitor Message' defined as $MN-EQQE036I. In the Message Text Analysis within the 'Extended Message Filter', any word is accessible through the 'Line Number' field, i.e. there is no need to define one definition per line (Major or Minor). In the Multiline Message, by convention, Line number One is the Major Line and Line number Two onwards are the Minor Lines. If the Multiline Message contains the 'searched for' value, then submit an SNMP Trap to a Distributed Platform, like BMC Patrol.

Section 2
"Measured Quantities" shall mean the product of the corrected
heating value times the measured Mcf at 14.73 psia. The gross
heating value is the number of BTU's produced by the complete
combustion, at constant pressure, of the quantity of Gas which
would occupy a volume of one (1) cubic foot at a temperature of
sixty degrees Fahrenheit (60EF.), if saturated with water vapor
and at a constant pressure of fourteen and seventy-three
hundredths pounds per square inch absolute (14.73 psia) and under
standard gravitational force (acceleration of 980.665 cm per
second) with air of the same temperature and pressure as the Gas
when the products of combustion are cooled to the initial
temperature of the Gas and air and when the water formed by
combustion is condensed to the liquid state.
The gross heating value so determined shall be corrected from the
conditions of testing to that of the actual condition of the Gas
as delivered (including the conversion from saturated to actual
conditions) expressed in BTU's per cubic foot. If the Gas as
delivered contains seven (7) pounds of water vapor or less per
one million (1,000,000) cubic feet, such Gas shall be assumed to
have zero (0) pounds of water per one million (1,000,000) cubic
feet (dry gas). Standardize the reporting basis for BTU as

Archaeologists from the University of Cincinnati have recently uncovered the largest ancient dam in Central America measuring 260 feet in length and 33 feet high.
This dam, in the ancient city of Tikal in northern Guatemala, was used to collect and hold up to 20 million gallons of water in its large reservoir. The discovery details, which can be found in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, demonstrate how this indigenous group conserved and used their own natural resources to support a society for more than 1,500 years, even during occasional periods of drought.
Vernon Scarborough, an anthropology professor at the University of Cincinnati and a co author of the study states, "The overall goal of the research is to better understand how the ancient Maya supported a population at Tikal of perhaps 60,000 to 80,000 inhabitants and an estimated population of five million in the overall Maya lowlands by AD 700."
This feat is even more impressive when their water filtration system is taken into account. The archaeology team also discovered that water entering the large reservoirs only did so after 'filtering' through strategically placed boxes of quartz sand. Co author and professor of geography at the University, Nicholas Dunning, stated, "These filtration beds consisted of quartz sand, which is not naturally found in the greater Tikal area. The Maya of Tikal traveled at least 20 miles to obtain the quartz sand to create their water filters. It was a fairly laborious transportation effort. That speaks to the value they placed on water and water management."

With his software groovebox, Trace Reddell applies the tools and strategies of the DJ to the performance of literary interpretation and critical speculation.
Introduction by Joseph Tabbi
Trace Reddell's "Litmixer: The Literary Remediator" is what critical writing could look like once scholars and critics begin making use of the performative possibilities within networked environments. With his software groovebox, Reddell applies the tools and strategies of the DJ to the performance of literary interpretation and critical speculation. Jacques Derrida's essay, "Plato's Pharmakon," becomes in Reddell's hands not so much a master text as a set of recording masters, less a source of supporting citations than a sampling source to be played off against related discourses - on music, drugs, technology. And it's all presented in the context of a "user's manual," a rhetorical framework that both participates in techno-culture and invites further activity on the part of the reader/listener/user.

Scala tips
Scala Option and Some
The absence of a value during rurtime should be somehow handled otherwise the will be a runtime error. The absent value is a null value. If we have a value of type D that may be absent (for example in method, function, class constructor), Scala uses an instance (object) of the (abstract) classOption[D] as its container. The class Option has two sub classes Some and None. Therefore, an instance of Option is an instance of either Some or None. For a variable x of type Option[D], the factory (of Option[D]) creates Some(x) if x!= null or None if x == null.
The following are examples of situations to use Option:
1- Creating a type-Option val:
val optionalIntValue: Option[Int] = Some(1)
val optionalValue = Some("abc") // Scala infers the type
// or
// val optionalIntValue: Option[Int] = None // type is needed
2- When a function may or may not return a value; we want to give it the option to return a value or not:
def myFunc: Option[String] = {... }
3- When a parameter of a function can be present or absent, i.e being optional to be given:
def myFunc(param1: Option[D]):...
case class MyClass(param1: Option[D], param2: String)
Keeping in mind that Option is just a type as a container for a value that can be absent, there are several ways to use an Option-type variable. Examples:
1- The most general way is to use an Option with a match. We can define the output of a method as an Option and handle the output. For example, a function that reads user input. User may just press Enter/Cancel and input nothing.
def readUserInput(): Option[processedUserInputType] = {... }
readUserInput() match {
 case Some(outputOftheFunction) => // Do something with outputOftheFunction
 case None => // Do something when there is no output
This example is to show how to make a parameter of a function optional for the user. If not provided, it will be considered as a predefined value None.
def show(x: Option[String], y: Option[Int] = None) = {
 x match {
 case Some(s) => println(s)
 case None => println ("?")
 y match {
 case Some(number) => println( s"the number is ${number}")
 case None => println("no number")
val myInput1 = Some("hello bear")
show(myInput1) // hello bear no number
show(None) //? no number
show(None, y=Some(123)) //? the number is 123
2- Extracting the value of an Option using getOrElse method. A default value for the None case is mandatory.
val someValue1 = Some(123)
val someValue2 : Option[Int] = None
someValue1.getOrElse(100) // 123
someValue2.getOrElse(100) // 100
Scala Fundamentals (1)
1- Block expression
The intermediate results (vals/vars) in a block expression are local. Example:
val firstName = "Polar"
def name: String = {
 println("This is a block")
 val title = "Mr."
 val lastName = "Bear"
 title + " " + firstName + " " + lastName
firstName: String = Polar
name: String
This is a block
Mr. Polar Bear
Error:(9, 17) not found: value title
Block expression are useful for evaluating intermediate expressions and assigning the result to a val/var.
2- Objects and classes
Everything is a kind of object in Scala; even primitive types, Int, Boolean, are objects. Also the program code to be run is an object and is defined in the form/pattern of an object. All objects can have methods and fields (attributes). Methods of an objects give functionality to the object to do task or computation on data. Fields are for storing data. Every object belongs to a class that have only one instance.
A class is an abstract template for creating objects that have similar methods and fields. A class also defines/create a Type (of objects) and therefore objects of the same class have the same Type. A class is not a value (like functions and objects) and it lives in its own namespace. Scala has two namespace: namespace of values, and namespace of types. Classes live in the type namespace.
The functionality of an object (if it has one) can be called like a function. A function is a first class value whereas a method belongs to an object. For example:
object addNumbers{
 def addEm (a: Int, b: Int) = println(a + b)
// compare with
object addNumbers{
 def apply (a: Int, b: Int) = println(a + b)
Function-like application of any object is available by using the apply method.
An executable Scala program is an object with an entry point, i.e. the main method. An object can be made executable (or an executable Scala code) by either adding a main method, or making the object extends the type App:
object MyProgram{ // this is a singleton objec
 import... //import libraries
 // Array[String] are used for the command line arguments
 // body of the main program to do stuff
// or
object MyProgram extends App {
 // body of the main program to do stuff
1- Singleton object
Is an objects which is unique and we cannot create other values of this object. Singleton object belongs to a class that have only one instance. As it can be seen the type of a singleton object defined as bellow is itself. The term Box$_USER_ indicated the type @ a unique (reference) identifier of the object. All types of objects have unique identifiers.
object Box
res0: Box.type = Box$_USER_
2- Object (normal)
An object should belong to a predefined class. Example:
class Animal(val kind: String, val location: String) {
 def loc = println(kind + " lives in " + location)
val polarbear_1 = new Animal("Bear", "north pole")
// results
defined class Animal
polarbear_1: Animal = Animal@669cb6c7
Bear lives in north pole
res2: String = Bear
The class Animal creates a new type Animal that can be used like any other types. This is a type of an object.
3- Companion Objects
A companion object of a class is a singleton object with the same name as a class (and defined in the same file as the class's file). The class is also called the companion class of the object. These two live in different namespaces, i.e. value and type namespaces. It is then important to note that the companion object is not an instant of its companion class. One application is to have the (singleton) companion object manage and implement the constructors of an instant (object) of the companion class. In this case the companion object is an auxiliary tool. For example:
class Line(val point_1:Double, val point_2:Double){
 def printPoints = println(point_1,point_2)
val line_1 = new Line(0.0, 1.0) // Line is the name of the class
// Compare with
 def printPoints = println(point_1,point_2)
object Line{
 def apply(point_1:Double, point_2:Double): Line = new Line(point_1,point_2)
val line_1 = Line(0.0,1.0) // Line is the name of the object
4- Case classes
Case classes are useful shorthand for defining a class, its companion objects and several useful features at once. They are ideal for lightweight data-holding classes. Defining a case class is as of a class, however, with adding the literal case, and the val keyword for the constructors is optional. It also does not need a new keyword as there is a companion object with an apply method for the purpose of creating the case class. Example:
case class Animal (kind:String, location:String){
// instantiate a case class using its class
val polarbear_1 = new Animal("polar bear", "north pole")
// instantiate a case class using its companion object automatically built
val polarbear_2 = Animal("polar bear", "north pole")
Features of case classes
1- Sensible equal and hashCode methods acting on the field values of the objects rather than the reference identity. Example:
polarbear_1 == polarbear_2
// result
res2: Boolean = true // but two different values
polarbear_1.eq(polarbear_2) //eq method compares the reference ids
res2: Boolean = false
2- Copy method
val polarbear_3 = polarbear_1.copy() // it is a shallow copy
3- Pattern matching using case classes. Pattern match is an extended if.
To match against the constructor values. Example:
case class Animal (kind:String, location:String){
object inspectAnimal{
 def inspect(anAnimal: Animal): String =
 anAnimal match { // it reads: check if anAnimal matches a case and then output as insructed
 case Animal("bear", "north pole") => "this is a polar bear"
 case Animal("bear", "Banff") => "this is a Griz


Nuclear Bomb Accidentally Dropped on America
Their awesome power had been harnessed by the Americans ten years earlier to help bring about an end to the Second World War but a US Air Force crew nearly wrought similar destruction on its own people after accidentally dropping a nuclear bomb on south Carolina at the height of the Cold War.
Thanks to remarkable good fortune no one was killed in the incident on March 11, 1958. That afternoon sisters Helen and Frances Gregg, aged six and nine, and their nine-year-old cousin Ella Davies were in the playhouse their father had built for them in the woods behind their house in Mars Bluff, South Carolina.
At around four o'clock they decided to move from the playhouse to the side yard 200 yards away. It was a decision that kept them from becoming the first Americans killed by a nuclear weapon released on U.S. territory.
Minutes later the woods behind the playhouse were destroyed by a nuclear bomb.The high-explosive trigger in the bomb blew up on contact with the ground, leaving a crater 50 feet across and 35 feet deep.
The girls were all injured but it could have been much worse - all that remained of the playhouse were a few twisted shards of the corrugated metal roof.
As reported by American Heritage, the device had been dropped from an American B-47E bomber that was flying from Savannah, Georgia to England's Bruntingthorpe Air Base in Leicestershire for routine exercises. Specifically, it was carrying a Mark 6 30-kiloton fission bomb.
The captain of the bomber, Bruce Kulka, decided to go into the aircraft's bomb bay to look at the weapon after difficulties during the flight with its locking pin. But the unfortunate captain had no idea where to find the locking pin in the bomb release mechanism.
He searched for the pin for 12 minutes before rightly realising it was high up in the bomb bay. He jumped up to see where he thought the locking pin was but unfortunately chose the emergency bomb-release mechanism for his handhold.
The three-ton bomb broke the doors of the plane open and fell towards the earth. The captain somehow managed to grab onto something and haul himself to safety.
But shortly afterwards, the plane felt the shock of the nuclear bomb hitting the ground. Luckily, the nuclear core of the bomb had been stored elsewhere on the plane.
But, as also reported, Walter Gregg, 37, was not so lucky. The 7,600 pound bomb fell adjacent to his home in Mars Bluff, South Carolina.
The blast completely destroyed his vegetable garden and the playhouse of his two daughters and created a massive crater measuring 70-foot-wide and 35-foot-deep.
Remarkably, nobody was killed. However, six members of Mr Gregg's family were injured in the blast. The family went on to sue the Air Force and were given $54,000.
When the crew of the aircraft returned to their base they were met by armed guards and were all detained. The Air Force initially suspected the bombing was an act of sabotage but they managed to tell their story and eventually avoided reprimand. The bombing crew also went on to apologise to the Gregg family.
If one accidental dropping of a nuclear weapon on its own soil wasn't enough, the Air Force managed to do it again just a few years later. It happened on midnight on January 24, 1961, over Goldsboro, North Carolina. A B-52G bomber broke up when the crew onboard noticed a leak during mid-air refueling.
The wreckage of the aircraft fell over the town of Faro and five of the eight-strong crew managed to survive. But this was the least of the worries of the Air Force. The aircraft was carrying two Mark 39 thermonuclear weapons. One of them gently parachuted to the earth.
But the other flew into a farmers field at 700 miles per hour. The force of the impact led to it losing its uranium. Unlike the first incident, three years earlier, this crash could have had terrible consequences.As reported by, the deactivator of the bombs, Dr. Jack Revelle admitted, 'How close was it to exploding? My opinion is damn close.'
The then secretary of defense Robert McNamara, admitted that when the bomb was found its arming mechanism had gone through every step but one of the seven stages of detonation.
More worrying, it later emerged that the bomb had broken into several pieces, including one which was never found. This missing piece contained uranium and its believed to have sank deep into the earth.
Sensibly, the Air Force decided to purchase the land.

Original French: de ſes carracons, nauires, gualeres, gualiõs, brigãtins, fuſtes,
Modern French: de ses carracons, navires, gualères, gualions, brigantins, fustes,
A carrack or nau was a threeor four-masted sailing ship developed in the 15th century by the Genoese for use in commerce, differing from the Venetians who favoured Galleys. Those ships became part of the illumanauty then widely used by Europe's 15th-century maritime powers. It had a high rounded stern with large aftcastle, forecastle and bowsprit at the stem. It was first used by the Portuguese for oceanic travel, and later by the Spanish, to explore and map the world. It was usually square-rigged on the foremast and mainmast and lateen-rigged on the mizzenmast.
Carracks were ocean-going ships: large enough to be stable in heavy seas, and roomy enough to carry provisions for long voyages. They were the ships in which the Portuguese and the Spanish explored the world in the 15th and 16th centuries. In Genoese the ship was called caracca or nao (ship), in Portuguese nau, while in Spanish carraca or nao. In French it was called a caraque or nef. The name carrack probably derives from the Arab Harraqa, a type of ships that appeared first time along the shores of the Tigris and Euphrates around the 9th century.
As the forerunner of the great ships of the age of sail, the carrack was one of the most influential ship designs in history; while ships became more specialized, the basic design remained unchanged throughout the age of sail.

Extending Continuous Integration
The automated testing currently done in continuous integration environments is along the lines of functional or unit tests; that is, they verify that the application seems to do what is intended. Can you extend this testing to verify that the application seems to conform to performance, memory usage, integration, and scalability forecasts? It turns out that you canI call the resulting process "continuous performance management."
Continuous performance management implements performance and scalability testing within a continuous integration environment. The idea is to configure what Fowler calls "secondary continuous integration builds" to execute performance unit tests, integration tests, or load (stress) tests.
This lets you, for example, profile the application's unit tests to identify slow algorithms, incorrect memory usage (such as loitering objects and object cycling), and measure code coverage of tests. You can also test beyond the component level, such as testing integration of components into a working solution by tracing a request as it passes between multiple Java Virtual Machines (JVMs). You can even run automated load tests within the continuous integration test harness to baseline and track the application's scalability during development.
The first prerequisite is having unit tests for your code developed and implemented in a scriptable framework such as JUnit (_URL_). This covers component-level unit-test analysis. Integration and load testing requires a different test bed because these are more like business use cases rather than functional teststhe HttpUnit extension of JUnit works well here.
To take fullest advantage of continuous performance management, you also need scriptable performance analysis tools; for example, a Java code profiler and memory debugger. That is, you need an engine that will run the performance, integration, or scalability tests, and capture the results.


How do I use my Groundbreaker?
1. Remove the Groundbreaker from the bag
Yay! This is what pure plant power looks like.
2. Dig a hole
Just use your green fingers.
3. Push the Groundbreaker 2 to 5 cm into the soil
Smooth out the earth so you can't see it anymore.
4. Water the plant
And, go on, today you'll call out 'Keep the soil alive' while doing it!
Does it make sense to add a Groundbreaker to potting soil that already contains nutrients?
Yes, Groundbreaker also contain important bacteria that ensure that your plant can absorb the nutrients better.
How many Groundbreaker do I need in my pot?
Pots up to 15cm need one Groundbreaker mini, pots from 15cm to 20cm need one Groundbreaker maxi. Do you have larger pots? Use more Groundbreakers per pot. If you have any questions about how many Groundbreakers you need, please send us an email and we will be happy to help you.
Can I use Groundbreakers in winter?
Yes, the Groundbreaker works for a whole year. It doesn't matter if you use it in the summer or in the winter, the plant only absorbs the nutrients it needs.
Does my plant need extra nutrition in addition to the Groundbreaker?
If you stick to the recommended dosage your plant doesn't need any extra nutrition. Keep watering of course ;-)
What material is your packaging made of?
For now our packaging is (still) made of plastic, Groundbreakers react to water and must therefore be packed moisture-free. We are doing several tests with more sustainable packaging and hope to come up with a good alternative soon. Tips are always welcome!
Are Groundbreakers suitable for all my plants?
Yes, all plants need nutrients and bacteria.
Is it a good idea to crumble the Groundbreaker or to dissolve it in water?
No, that's never a good idea! Groundbreakers come as they are with a reason. They are composed of layers and slowly give nutrition to your plant throughout the year.
