In this study we have investigated the ability of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to predict far field wave propagation parameters generated by vessels at forward speeds in a confined channel.
A model pressure source has been tested in the Australian Maritime College Towing Tank with wave probes located at a range of lateral distances through the channel which measured the parameters of the generated waves.The CFD software ANSYS Fluent was used to simulate the same conditions using the finite volume method. The numerical results are compared with experimental data for different lateral distances from the pressure source. The comparisons show that the numerical approach is able to satisfactorily predict the wave parameters in the far field, as well as the near field.

ADDIE the Acronym - 1995
While the ADDIE model has been around since at least 1975, it was generally known as SAT (System Approach to Training) and later, ISD (Instructional System Design). The use of the ADDIE acronym did not come about until much later. Now there are probably earlier uses, but these are the earliest references that I have been able to locate that actually use the acronym of ADDIE.
1. Schlegel, M. J. (1995) A Handbook of Instructional and Training Program Design. ERIC Document Reproduction Service ED383281
I have not read the handbook, but rather an abstract that I found in my library's database (Sno-Isle Libraries). It reads in part:
The generic Design Model of Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation (ADDIE) is utilized, and detailed job aids are provided in the form of rating sheets and checklists.
2. Molenda, M., Pershing, J. A., and Reigeluth, C.. M. (1996). Designing Instructional Systems. In Robert L. Craig (Ed.), The ASTD Training and Development Handbook 4th ed. (pp. 266-293). New York: McGraw-Hill.
On page 272, there is a chart showing the five phases of ISD. The caption reads: "Figure13-2. Breakdown of phases and steps in the ADDIE ISD Model."
3. Gayeski, D. M. (1998). OUT-OF-THE-BOX INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN. Training & Development, Apr 98, Vol. 52, Issue 4
The article refers to Rossett's (1987) writings on Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation model, or ADDIE. However, Michael Molenda writes in The ADDIE Model (submitted to Encyclopedia of Educational Technology, 2/5/03, to be published by ABC-CLIO) that Rossett's book does not contain the acronym ADDIE.
1995, 1996, 1998
Thus, it seems as if the term "ADDIE" did not make its way into the popular literature until the mid 1990s, while the model itself has been in use since 1975.

The importance of creating inclusive policy cannot be overstated. In response to this challenge, the UW Tech Policy Lab (TPL) developed the Diverse Voices method in 2015. The method uses short, targeted conversations about emerging technology with "experiential experts" from under-represented groups to provide feedback on draft tech policy documents. This process works to increase the likelihood that the language in the finalized tech policy document addresses the perspectives and circumstances of broader groups of people— ideally averting injustice and exclusion.

Standard regression output suggests which covariates are significant and similarly standard random forest output suggests which are relatively important for the response.
We might be able to see the important relationships visually, but for large N or high dimensional data, how can we determine the set of covariates that has had the maximum impact on the response for a given observation? For example, if $Y = x_1 + x_2 + X_3$, then $Y$ can equal $2$ for many combinations of $x_1$, $x_2$ and $x_3$ values.
By comparison, if we build a CART tree then we can traverse the tree from the bottom up to get the cause of various covariates on the response. But it is not possible for random forest or regression. Are there any analytical methods to assess this?
I am providing practical example – Everyday "stats.stackexchange" gets many requests and based many parameters (IVs – count of SME available for that particular subject, backlog in that queue, weekday/holiday,…) the time to response (DV – assume - 1 hour after question post) are calculated/predicted.
On any particular day, the time to response is 5 hours (say 5 times of expected mean time of response) then question comes why today response time is 5 hours and what factors (IVs) has contributed. This is what, I am trying to understand

 $\begingroup$ Traversing a simple tree from bottom up to the root node does not give "causes" of IVs on the DV in any meaningful sense. That is an illusion. $\endgroup$ – gung Jan 25 '17 at 15:11

text: Wireless power transfer (WPT) technology is becoming popular and widely used in various fields including smart phones and electrical vehicles (EV). Therefore, designing an efficient and energy-saving WPT system is a critical issue. The focus of this paper is on a resonant coupled WPT system design by considering the scenario that more than one receivers present at the receiver side. The WPT system is optimized by minimizing the transmitted power from the transmitter side while considering the minimum required power at all receivers simultaneously. Using the tools of optimization theory, an optimization problem is formulated first that captures the multi-receiver WPT optimal design, and then it is reformulated as an equivalent convex program which is convenient to address. The paper also analyzes the impact of design parameters on the power transfer characteristics. Finally, a number of case studies are used to corroborate theoretical findings and provide optimal design guidelines for the resonant coupled multi-receiver WPT systems.

Climatic changes and their influence on air temperature and precipitation in Ukraine during transitional seasons
Since modern research indicates climatic changes in all regions of our planet, including on the territory of Ukraine (in particular, the deviation of temperature and other meteorological parameters from the values of the climatic norm), their study is extremely important. After all, they can lead to changes in the nature of precipitation distribution, the length of the growing season, a decrease in the duration of the stable snow cover, local runoff water resources, etc. Most scientific works in recent years describe changes in the distribution of temperature characteristics and precipitation regime, because they are one of the main indicators of the state of the climate system. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to identify the features of changes in air temperature and precipitation for the entire territory of Ukraine from 2021 to 2050 based on the results of 16 simulations of the ensemble of CORDEX models based on the RCP4.5 scenario. The CORDEX project is a modern simulation of the future climate and has a resolution of ~ 12.5 km in the horizontal plane, which makes it possible to better simulate the characteristics under study. It integrates regional climate predictions that are generated using statistical and dynamic methods. The results obtained are presented for 177 cities of Ukraine, which currently form the basis of a modern monitoring network.
It was found that the number of days with precipitation ≥ 5 mm in transitional seasons increases on average by 1-3 days per month, depending on the region. The maximum values of the frequency of occurrence of the number of days with precipitation ≥ 5 mm are observed in the west and gradually decrease in the south. Compared to _PHONE_, the most significant changes occur with the number of frosty days with an air temperature of ≤ 0°С, which noticeably decreases during the study period from north to south. In April and October, for the southern regions of Ukraine, the considered parameter is equal to 0, which means that in these months the air temperature for these regions will have positive values.
From the above, there is a tendency towards warming in transitional seasons and a change in the nature of moisture supply to the territory of Ukraine in the next thirty years.

Industrial facilities with hazardous locations will realize much more than just enhanced safety with hazardous location LED lighting. Safety and security for employees who work in hazardous locations will always be of paramount importance, and in itself safety is a legitimate reason to install properly-rated LED lighting in those locations. The added benefits of hazardous location LED lighting will further justify their installation.
Industry and regulatory standards define the criteria for designating a work area as a hazardous location. An atmosphere around an industrial or manufacturing facility, for example, might include concentrations of flammable vapors, dusts, or fibers. This is particularly true for work areas in confined spaces, where vapor concentrations might build up and create an even greater hazard. Even if flammable substances are only stored or carried through work areas in sealed containers, their mere presence in the area means that the area is a hazardous location per the relevant classification standards. Hazardous location LED lighting will contain light fixtures with stronger housing and tempered glass that encase sparks and other potential ignition sources away from a flammable substance.
Benefits of Hazardous Location LED Lighting
Like other forms of LED lighting, hazardous location LED lighting is energy efficient and extremely durable. On average, an LED fixture will generate the same or better illumination as a traditional industrial lighting fixture with up to 90% less electrical energy input. The fixtures will also continue to work at acceptable levels for up to 50,000 hours, and in some cases up to 100,000 hours of operation. fvtled LED is a premier domestic manufacturer and designer of LED lighting fixtures and products and offers three different lines of hazardous location LED lighting that include durable fixtures constructed from copper free aluminum with superior double-folded aluminum fin heat sink technology to reduce the physical temperature of the fixture itself, which both improves durability and further reduces the potential for catastrophic ignition of airborne flammable substances.
These efficiency and durability characteristics save substantial operating and maintenance costs for industrial and manufacturing facilities while simultaneously providing the desired safe environment for workers. Designers and facilities managers who are selecting hazardous location LED fixtures can simply match the characteristics of an environment with the rating standards that apply to those fixtures. Class I hazardous lighting fixtures are designed for environments that include chemical vapors that might ignite when certain concentrations of those vapors come into contact with an ignition source, such as an electrical spark. Class II fixtures are designed for environments with concentrations of flammable dust, and Class III fixtures are for environments with airborne fibers. These Classes are further subdivided in Divisions, which are a function of whether the flammable substances are actually used in an environment or are stored or transported through that environment in sealed containers. The Divisions are broken down into seven different Groups that are defined by the actual substances and their relative flammability levels. Group A fixtures, for example, are rated for safe use in environments in which acetylene is used or stored.
Choosing the best hazardous location LED light fixture for a particular industrial application can be a difficult task for anyone who does not have a good understanding of the different Class, Division, and Group designations that apply to those fixtures.
fvtled LED's industrial lighting specialists are available to review all types of industrial facilities to help a manager or designer to select the fixtures that will provide the optimum benefits for their facilities.led lights,solar lights,led strip lights,outdoor stores,WIFI Deck Lights,WIFI LED Strip Go to Homepage

How to Check the Quality of Wood?
Table of Contents
Being able to judge the quality of wood is very important when durability and sustainability are more important than ever. Knowing what makes high-quality wood different can help you avoid wasting time, money, or irritation when doing DIY projects around the house or when hiring a carpenter to source materials.
Understanding Wood Grading:
Wood grading systems vary depending on the region and the type of wood being assessed. still, they generally classify wood grounded on its appearance and structural integrity. The most common grading systems include
These grades assess the visual characteristics of wood, similar as knots, color variations, and grain patterns. Grades like Select, Clear, and Common are frequently used for softwoods like pine and cedar, while FAS( Firsts and Seconds) and select grades are common for hardwoods like oak and maple.
These grades estimate the strength and stability of the wood. Grades similar as Stud, Construction, and Utility are generally used for structural purposes, indicating the wood's load-bearing capacity and suitability for different applications..
Understanding the grading system applicable to your region and the specific design conditions is essential for selecting the right and high quality of wood.
Assessing Wood Characteristics:
Beyond grading, several crucial characteristics can help you determine the quality of wood
High humidity content in wood can lead to screwing, shrinking, and decay over time. Use a humidity meter to ensure the wood's humidity content is within the correct range for your design.
Thick wood is generally stronger and further durable than lower thick kinds. You can assess density by examining the weight of the wood or conducting a simple density test, similar as the nail test, which involves driving a nail into the wood to see how fluently it penetrates.
The direction and pattern of the grain can affect the wood's strength and appearance. Straight, tight grains are generally preferred for structural stability, while interesting grain patterns can enhance the aesthetic appeal of the wood.
Knots and Defects
While some knots can add character to wood, others may weaken its structure. check the wood for large knots, cracks, splits, and other defect that could compromise its quality or applicability for your design.
Color and Texture
The color and texture of the wood can vary significantly depending on the species and the part of the tree from which it was gathered. Choose wood with harmonious color and texture for a invariant appearance in your design.
Testing Wood Quality
In addition to visual examination, there are several tests you can perform to assess the quality of wood
Apply pressure to a sample of wood to test its inflexibility and adaptability. High- quality wood should bend without breaking.
A musty or moldy odor may indicate decay or fungal growth within the wood. Fresh, clean- smelling wood is generally a sign of good quality.
Tap the wood with a hammer or your knuckles and hear to the sound it produces. thick, high-quality wood will produce a clear, resonant sound, while low- quality wood may sound dull or flat.
Run your hand along the face of the wood to check for smoothness and thickness. Rough or uneven shells may indicate poor quality or indecorous milling.
Choosing high quality wood is essential for achieving successful and long-lasting woodworking systems. By understanding wood grading systems, assessing crucial characteristics, and performing quality tests, you can confidently choose the right wood for your requirements. Whether you are building cabinetwork, constructing a sundeck, or bearing any other woodworking, testing in quality wood will ensure superior results and satisfaction for times to come.

When it comes to creating an outdoor gathering space, few features are as inviting as a fire pit. Not only does a fire pit provide warmth and light, it also serves as a focal point for conversation and relaxation. If you're considering adding a fire pit to your backyard, patio, or pool area, one material to consider is concrete. In this blog post, we'll explore the benefits of using concrete for your outdoor fire pit.
One of the biggest advantages of using concrete for your fire pit is its durability. Concrete is a strong and long-lasting material that can withstand exposure to heat, moisture, and weathering. This means that your concrete fire pit will continue to look great and perform well for years to come, even with regular use.
Another benefit of using concrete for your fire pit is the design flexibility it offers. Concrete can be molded into a wide range of shapes and sizes, making it easy to create a fire pit that fits your specific needs and preferences. Whether you prefer a simple and classic design or something more unique and modern, concrete can be customized to suit your style.
Concrete fire pits are also relatively low maintenance. Unlike other materials that may require frequent cleaning or sealing, concrete is easy to care for and doesn't require much upkeep. Simply clean your fire pit as needed with soap and water, and your concrete fire pit will look great for years to come.
Compared to other materials commonly used for fire pits, such as stone or brick, concrete is a more cost-effective option. This means that you can create a beautiful and functional fire pit without breaking the bank. Additionally, concrete is readily available and can be easily sourced from a local supplier.
Finally, concrete is a safe material for use in fire pits. It is non-combustible, which means that it won't catch on fire or release toxic fumes. Additionally, concrete is an excellent insulator, which helps to keep the heat from the fire contained within the fire pit.

Keeping the Power On: 5G Satellites Support Smart Grid Sensors, Pinpointing Problems Promptly
A partnership between Sateliot, operator of a constellation of low earth orbit "nanosatellites" and Sentrisense, developer of power grid sensors, aims to reduce the time required to troubleshoot power outages, minimizing the duration of the outage. The Sateliot satellites support 5G narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) connectivity. The Sentrisense sensors connect to electric towers and electric lines to keep management apprised of their status and condition.
The 5G satellites will provide Sentrisense with connectivity to its devices, even if the devices are out of reach of other forms of connectivity. Sentrisense will monitor the devices and modify amperages as needed to manage the grid more efficiently even in the case of accidents, fires or broken lines. The time required to pinpoint broken wires can be reduced from four hours to just five minutes, according to the partners. The deal with Sateliot will enable Sentrisense to make its platform available anywhere on earth, the companies say. Currently, the system is up and running in the United States, Australia, Belgium, Chile, Spain and Sweden.
The partnership will enable massive data gathering that will make the power grid smarter. The devices can report ambient weather conditions — including humidity and wind speed and direction — which will enable proactive steps to be taken to protect the grid. The system can help prevent energy leaks and help preparations for heat waves or blizzards. "The massive connectivity between 5G satellites and the sensors will allow far more accurate predictions on wear and tear analysis, alert to the presence of fallen trees or ice on the lines, and make models of wire inclination and distance from the ground and model the ideal ampacity, among other applications," said Sateliot CEO Jaume Sanpera in a press release.
Sentrisense sensors last 10 years and can work with a variety of networks, including 4G and Wi-Fi. The devices can be attached with an industry standard clip, even by drone. They are provided with a solar panel and battery.


text: Areas closer to the boundaries of the Matanuska and Susitna River Valley proper likely saw more wind effect in the most recent wind events, such as Mt Souverin. These wind events produced strong winds through the main river valleys but spared the heart of Hatcher Pass. A consideration to keep in mind are long valleys with fetch. Northerly winds were likely stronger through Little Susitna River Valley and Moose Creek. The quantity and low density of snow would make it easy for winds to create wind slabs failing on widespread weak snow. This is a great example of how our forecast can have high accuracy for the main forecast boundary area, but variations in conditions can still exist in specific or isolated areas, and in peripheral zones.

Picos de Europa National Park
The first National Park in Spain
The Picos de Europa National Park was the first one to be awarded that designation in Spain. Its history goes back to 1918, when don Pedro Pidal, Marquis of Villaviciosa, promoted the law to create the Montaña de Covadonga National Park, which was named Picos de Europa National Park on 30 May 1995. This natural area was awarded the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve designation in 2002.
The Picos de Europa Mountains are made up of three important massifs: eastern or Andara massif, central or Urrieles massif, and western or Cornión massif. Its climate is humid and rainy, because it is affected by the sea (which is only 20 kilometres away). It snows in winter but it is not strange to find year-round snowfields. Because of the park's special climatology, there are often fog banks, much feared by mountain climbers. Regarding its orography, it stands out because of its strong relief, where high peaks are followed by deep ravines and canyons. In more than 200 spots the mountains are over 2,000 metres above sea level and there are slopes that are more than 2,300 metres high. The central massif is the most abrupt of the three, with the highest peaks: Torrecerredo (2,646 metres), the highest peak in the range, Naranjo de Bulnes (2,519 metres) and Pico Tesorero (2,570 metres). The eastern massif is the longest one, where high summits, such as Peña Santa de Castilla (2,596 metres) alternate with meadows, hill forests, beech forests, oak groves and heathland. In this massif you'll find the famous Covadonga Lakes. The eastern massif is shorter and lower, and the sharp crags contrast with the green pastureland. There are four rivers flowing through the park, along deep ravines: Deva River in La Hermida gorge; Sella River in Los Beyos gorge; Cares River in the "Garganta Divina" ravine; and Duje River in La India gorges. There are many viewpoints from where we can contemplate its beauty. A good option is to use the Fuentedé cable car which will take you higher than 1,800 metres above sea level.
Type of area
Parque Nacional, Reserva Biosfera
Area: 64.660 Hectares
Location: It is situated between the regions of Asturias, Cantabria and León, in the heart of the Cantabrian Mountains, in northern Spain.
Information for visits: You can reach the park in your private vehicle all year round except at the busiest times of year (summer, Easter week and national bank holiday weekends). You can check the Visitor Centres on this page.
More access information.
Environmental information: In the Picos de Europa National Park you'll find the best Atlantic forests in Spain. There are many oaks, beech, hazel, maple, chestnut, walnut trees… Many animal species live in the valley: wild boar, roe deer, wolves and some bears, many small birds (robins, coal tits and black woodpeckers), and even the emblematic capercaillie. The terrain is especially rugged and it is crossed by four rivers that cut through deep ravines, forming spectacular canyons in the mountain. You will also be able to enjoy the two most famous alpine lakes in Spain: El Enol and La Ercina, also called the Covadonga Lakes.
There are conservation plans for the capercaillie and recovery plans for the bearded vulture in the Picos de Europa National Park.
Cultural information: The Picos de Europa Mountains cover the municipalities of three provinces: Asturias, Cantabria and León. Excellent cultural tourism is available in these places. For example, in the region of Liébana (in the province of Cantabria but adjoining Asturias and León) you can visit the churches of Santa María de Lebeña and Santa María de Piasca, and the Monastery of Santo Toribio de Liébana. In Asturias you'll have the chance to visit the Shrine of Covadonga, in Cangas de Onís. Make the most of your visit and taste the Picos de Europa cheeses, which are traditional in the area and have a strong flavour. They are fermented in caves, and one of them is the famous Cabrales.

available in a range of sizes and are no longer considered design limited. Today's rotary screen machines are highly productive, allow for the quick changeover of patterns, have few design limitations, and can be used for both continuous and discontinuous patterns.
Estimates indicate that this technique controls approximately 65% of the printed fabric market worldwide. The principle disadvantage of rotary screen printing is the high fixed cost of the equipment. The machines are generally not profitable for short yardages of widely varying patterns, because of the clean-up and machine down time when changing patterns. Flat screen printing is much more suitable for high pile fabrics, because only one squeegee pass is available with rotary screen. However, rotary machines are used for carpet and other types of pile fabrics. Most knit fabric is printed by the rotary screen method, because it does not stress (pull or stretch) the fabric during the process.
The rotary garment screen printing machine, developed in the 1960s, is the most popular device for screen printing in the industry. Screen printing on garments currently accounts for over half of the screen printing activity in the United States. [i]

 1. Harmony says:
 great explanation! Do you happen to know the average yards per minute printed with rotary screens? All of my fabrics are printed that way. I have a few videos I would be happy to share with you if you are interested.
 2. Jennifer says:
 What is the difference between screen printing and digital printing? Is one more eco-friendly than the other?
 1. oecotextiles says:
 This printing topic is so complex that I've had to cover it over several weeks – and digital printing is on the agenda!
 3. Janette says:
 This is a great explanation. Thanks. Good to know the worldwide stats. Is there any chance Oecotextiles will cover the digitally printing fabric process and in particular the inks used. In my experience digitally printing fabrics appear to be coming more common for smaller print runs. However, the fabrics I have received using a digitally printed process, smell very much like synthetic chemicals. I am concerned about the off gassing and health effects of these types of fabrics.
 4. india says:
 i too print fabric but work rather more slowly…and the colour is absorbed directly into the cloth from leaves using heat and moisture. not completely environmentally friendly but getting fairly close. certainly no competition for industry though!
 5. Pritam says:
 india It's really good to explain the things in Lehman language like this. it is really helpful to give presentation for my non technical office staff. It's really really good explanation. I think it will be more helpful if you can add more pictures in next articles. Thanks again.
 6. Branden says:
 in my view its actually amazing designed for me.

A tale of two fishes, identifying species in the 16th century
The illustration below, included on one of the final pages of the Swiss scholar Conrad Gessner's 1558 Historia Piscium, is remarkable for two reasons: The species depicted had never been described in a scholarly publication before, and it is the only one in over 750 aquatic species discussed by Gessner to be described as an addition[1] to another species. The story behind this[2] shows us a scientific discovery that highlights how species were identified and depicted.
plaatje1
 "Additio ad alausam" Conrad Gessner, Historia Piscium, 1558, p. 1259

So similar they can be called by the same name
Gessner describes this addition to the "alausa clupea, included in the appendix to his work, as so similar to this that either they are both the same species or they are so similar they can be called by the same name. This notwithstanding, the illustrations do not look much alike at all. The two depicted species clearly differ in body shape, type of scales, and judging by the row of vague black dots on the addition's back, even in colouration. Why then does Gessner describe these as similar?

Gessner's descriptions of these species can shed light on this. He describes the Alausa clupea as similar to a herring but bigger and broader, about a cubit in size, roughly 45 cm. Based on this description and the depiction it seems likely this is an Allis shad[3], a close relative to the herring.

 An Alosa alosa or Allis shad
As for the addition, Gessner provides the local names "Meienfische", and "Alfe" for this species. Like the Allis shad it is described as similar to the herring but much bigger, with a body as wide as a wide carp, a high back, a length five times its width, and four black spots on either side of its back. Based on the description, the depiction, and the provided names, we can assume this second species is a Twaite shad[4], a very close relative of the Allis shad.

These species really do look a lot alike apart from a few small, barely noticeable differences. Gessner was well aware of this. He described how both species could be found in his native Basel and this provided him with ample opportunity to study and compare these. In fact the Allis and Twaite shad are so closely related they can interbreed. This explains why Gessner thought these so similar he describes one of these as an addition to the other. But if this is the case, why do Gessner's illustrations look nothing alike?
Animal identification and depiction
Gessner's descriptions of these species can shed light on this, here he emphasises a short list of physical characteristics these fishes do not share. The Allis shad has smaller scales than the Twaite shad, it has a wider body, and the Twaite shad has more profound black dots on its side.
This emphasis is what determined the style of Gessner's woodcuts. Gessner began to study the Allis shad and the Twaite shad after he had received a drawing and description of the latter from his acquaintance Johan Kentmann who was studying fish in the River Elbe. Gessner based the woodcut illustration of the Twaite shad that would be printed in his publications on this drawing, but emphasised the little differences with the Allis shad. To this he added an emphasised woodcut of the Allis shad.
As we have seen, this resulted in two very different illustrations depicting very similar fish. Rather than provide us with realistic portraits of species, Gessner is telling us what to look out for when we try to identify them. The taxonomical depictions used by biologists today, are based on the same principle.

A discovery unacknowledged
Convinced by these physical differences, in his later publications Gessner described these fish as species within the same family. For the following century and a half however Gessner would remain the only one to believe so, the Twaite shad was not again described as a distinct species until Lacépède did so in 1803.

It took a long time for people to realise that Gessner's "addition" really did exist. Generally the two species do not share a habitat and only one or the other can be found in the same place. As a result authors described only one, and not both of these species and assumed Gessner had made a mistake. Today Lacépède is acknowledged as the researcher who first identified the Twaite shad, while Gessner's discovery has been forgotten.

New Text Formatting Rules
The output of a rule is sent directly to the browser. Therefore, the output can contain raw HTML. The output of a rule is either "dirty" or "clean". By default, the rule output is considered "clean" and stored in the HTML cache. The rule will not be called again unless the page is edited. Rules that produce raw HTML output may produce "clean" output.
Rules can also be used to create dynamic output – output that may change every time the page is viewed. The output of the rule must therefore be marked as "dirty". This will prevent it from being cached.
In order to define new text formatting rules, you need to define a function called MyRules in the config file. The function will be called on every piece of text that did not trigger any other rule. The function must use a regular expression using \G.
Here is the relevant piece of information from the perlre manpage:
The \G assertion can be used to chain global matches (using m//g), as described in "Regexp Quote-Like Operators" in perlop. It is also useful when writing "lex"-like scanners, when you have several patterns that you want to match against consequent substrings of your string, see the previous reference. Currently \G is only fully supported when anchored to the start of the pattern; while it is permitted to use it elsewhere, as in /(?<=\G..)./g, some such uses (/.\G/g, for example) currently cause problems, and it is recommended that you avoid such usage for now.
Therefore, at the core of the MyRules function, you will have an expression like the following:
sub MyRules {
 if (m/\G.../gc) {
 ...
 return ...;
 }
 return;
}
If the function returns a string, it will be used instead of the the text matched. Unless you take extra precautions (see below), the string you return will be put in the HTML cache. The next time the page is viewed, MyRules will no longer be called, since output for the text in question is cached.
You can have multiple rules:
sub MyRules {
 if (m/\G.../gc) {
 ...
 return ...;
 } elsif (m/\G.../gc) {
 ...
 return ...;
 }
 return;
}
If none of your rules matched, return nothing—but don't write return undef because that returns (undef) in list context.
Here is an example for legal texts in Switzerland. A text of the form Art. 2 Abs. 3 URG will be linked to the page Art. 2 URG and to the anchor #3. You can create anchors on pages using [#3], and this will be replaced by a §3 in the text.
sub MyRules {
 if (m/\G(Art. (\d+) Abs. (\d+) ([^ ]+))/gc) {
 return $q->a({-href=>$ScriptName.'/'.UrlEncode("Art._$2_$4").'#'.$3},$1);
 } elsif (m/\G\[#(\d+)]/gc) {
 return $q->a({-name=>$1, -class=>'absatz'},'§'.$1);
 }
 return;
}
Have many rules? Use @MyRules instead of &MyRules
When you have a lot of rules, it starts to make sense to separate these into different subroutines. Use the MyRules_List instead of defining the MyRules sub. You can push code references onto the list, which allows you name and group the rules.
Here's an example where a bunch of symbols get replaced with Unicode characters.
push(@MyRules, \&SymbolsRule);
$RuleOrder{\&SymbolsRule} = 90; # before EditRule and MardownRule because of --
my %symbols = ();
$symbols{'-- '} = '– ';
$symbols{'---'} = '—';
$symbols{'\times'} = '×';
$symbols{'\star'} = '★';
$symbols{'<-'} = '←';
$symbols{'<--'} = '←';
$symbols{'->'} = '→';
$symbols{'-->'} = '→';
$symbols{'=>'} = '⇒';
$symbols{'==>'} = '⇒';
$symbols{'<=>'} = '⇔';
$symbols{'+/-'} = '±';
$symbols{'^0'} = '⁰';
$symbols{'^1'} = '¹';
$symbols{'^2'} = '²';
$symbols{'^3'} = '³';
$symbols{'^4'} = '⁴';
$symbols{'^5'} = '⁵';
$symbols{'^6'} = '⁶';
$symbols{'^7'} = '⁷';
$symbols{'^8'} = '⁸';
$symbols{'^9'} = '⁹';
$symbols_regexp = '\G(' . join('|', (map { quotemeta(QuoteHtml($_)) }
 sort {$b cmp $a} # longer regex first
 keys(%symbols))) . ')';
sub SymbolsRule {
 if (m/$symbols_regexp/cg) {
 return $symbols{UnquoteHtml($1)};
 }
 return;
}
HTML blocks: make sure to add the P element
Block elements in HTML are p, ol, ul, dl, h1-h6, hr, div, pre, and maybe others.
When you create a new HTML block element you should start by closing all HTML environments using CloseHtmlEnvironments() and then print your block. You don't want a header or a horizontal line within a paragraph, for example. You want it to come after the paragraph.
When you're closing a HTML block element, you should make sure that you add a new paragraph element after printing your block using AddHtmlEnvironment("p"). This will make sure that text following a heading or a horizontal line are within a paragraph again, and not "anonymous blocks".
This may result in empty paragraphs (

) in some situations, eg. a heading followed by a list. This will be removed later.
Here's an example that produces a preformatted block but replaces [b]…[/b] with strong highlighting (usually bold).
push(@MyRules, \&MetadataRule);
sub MetadataRule {
 if ($bol and m/\G~~~[ \t]*\n(.*?)\n~~~[ \t]*(\n|$)/cgs) {
 my $code = $1;
 $code =~ s/\[b\](.*?)\[\/b\]/$1<\/strong>/sg;
 return CloseHtmlEnvironments()
 . $q->pre({-class => 'terminal'}, $code)
 . AddHtmlEnvironment("p");
 }
 return;
}
Note that this rule depends on a little extra feature available in rules: $bol is true if we're at the beginning of a line.
No caching: producing "dirty" output
In order to avoid caching, you have to write some extra code. The idea is to store the raw expression as a dirty block, print something else, and return the empty string, thereby avoiding the default functionality:
Basic structure:
sub MyRules {
 if (m/\G(...)/gc) {
 Dirty($1);
 ...
 return '';
 }
 return;
}
This example allows you link to the download link for uploaded files (see File Upload). It's
push( @MyRules, \&DownloadSupportRule );
# [[download:page name]]
# [[download:page name|alternate title]]
sub DownloadSupportRule {
 if (m/\G(\[\[download:$FreeLink

Sweets Ban at School Parties May Cut Calorie Overload
Study Lends Support for Cutting Back on Cake and Other Sugary Treats at School Birthday Parties
Nov. 18, 2011 -- As childhood obesity rises, more schools have banned parents from bringing baked goods and other sugary treats for class parties.
Now a new study suggests those controversial "cupcake crackdowns" may be on the right track.
The study shows that kids can eat as many as one-third of all the calories they need in a day at a typical half-hour birthday party.
And those calories are coming from foods high in fat and sugar and low in nutrients -- such as cake, fruit punch, ice cream, and chips.
U.S. Dietary Guidelines recommend that getting no more than 5% to 15% of your daily calories from solid fats and added sugars.
"No one wants to be the grinch who stole cupcakes," says David L. Katz, MD, MPH, director of the Yale University Prevention Research Center, in New Haven, Conn., in an email.
"But consider that there are multiple holidays each year, and every kid in a class has a birthday. If every one of those celebrations is an opportunity for caloric overload, it adds up to real trouble," says Katz, who was not involved in the new study.
The good news: When fruit is served alongside those sugary treats, kids actually eat it. In fact, having fruit at a party appears to cut kids' party calories.
The study is published in the Journal of Nutrition, Education, and Behavior.
Counting Calories at Classroom Parties
For the study, researchers watched four classroom birthday parties for preschoolers and kindergartners.
They measured foods and drinks served before the party started, watched kids eat, and noted how many servings they had and how much they left on their plates.
One slice of chocolate cake and fruit punch were served at each party. In some cases, parents also brought ice cream and chips. Fresh fruit was also available at two parties.
At the two parties where fruit wasn't available, the kids each ate an average of 344 to 455 calories.
"It surprised me enormously," says study researcher Kathy K. Isoldi, PhD, a registered dietitian and an assistant professor of nutrition at Long Island University in Brookville, N.Y. "That's even a lot of calories for me. And this is just essentially one snack."
But when fruit was also an option, the counts dropped somewhat, to 259 to 405 calories.
"We have to think about what we're offering children because they're associating celebration with all this sugar and sweet treats, and they do like fruit," Isoldi tells WebMD.
Planning Healthier School Parties
School nutrition experts praised the study, which is the first to take stock of how much and what kinds of foods kids eat at a typical classroom celebration.
"The calories were a little astounding," says Deborah Beauvais, RD, who serves as nutrition director for two New York state school districts.
"This gives the whole birthday party thing some teeth, if you will," says Beauvais, who is in the middle of revising her schools' wellness policies.
She says some principals in her school districts have already curbed food at school parties, opting for other ways to celebrate special days.
Kids who have birthdays get to wear paper crowns, for example, and parents are encouraged to donate a book to be read in the child's classroom.
Other schools try to limit the number of classroom birthday parties by combining them, so that all the kids who have birthdays in the same month have one party.
"Kids are consuming, on average, 300 calories for a birthday party. Do we want to do that once a week or once a month?" Beauvais asks.
"I don't want to become the birthday party police, but I think this research is a great tool" to help educate parents and teachers about healthier alternatives, says Beauvais, who is also an American Dietetic Association spokeswoman.

3D rendering limitations
Wprowadzenie
Due to their focus on performance, real-time rendering engines have many limitations. Godot's renderer is no exception. To work effectively with those limitations, you need to understand them.
Texture size limits
On desktops and laptops, textures larger than 8192×8192 may not be supported on older devices. You can check your target GPU's limitations on GPUinfo.org.
Mobile GPUs are typically limited to 4096×4096 textures. Also, some mobile GPUs don't support repeating non-power-of-two-sized textures. Therefore, if you want your texture to display correctly on all platforms, you should avoid using textures larger than 4096×4096 and use a power of two size if the texture needs to repeat.
Color banding
When using the GLES3 or Vulkan renderers, Godot's 3D engine renders internally in HDR. However, the rendering output will be tonemapped to a low dynamic range so it can be displayed on the screen. This can result in visible banding, especially when using untextured materials. This can also be seen in 2D projects when using smooth gradient textures.
There are two main ways to alleviate banding:
 - Enable Use Debanding in the Project Settings. This applies a fullscreen debanding shader as a post-processing effect and is very cheap. Fullscreen debanding is only supported when using the GLES3 or Vulkan renderers. It also requires HDR to be enabled in the Project Settings (which is the default).
 - Alternatively, bake some noise into your textures. This is mainly effective in 2D, e.g. for vignetting effects. In 3D, you can also use a custom debanding shader to be applied on your materials. This technique works even if your project is rendered in LDR, which means it will work when using the GLES2 renderer.

Depth buffer precision
To sort objects in 3D space, rendering engines rely on a depth buffer (also called Z-buffer). This buffer has a finite precision: 24-bit on desktop platforms, sometimes 16-bit on mobile platforms (for performance reasons). If two different objects end up on the same buffer value, then Z-fighting will occur. This will materialize as textures flickering back and forth as the camera moves or rotates.
To make the depth buffer more precise over the rendered area, you should increase the Camera node's Near property. However, be careful: if you set it too high, players will be able to see through nearby geometry. You should also decrease the Camera node's Far property to the lowest permissible value for your use case, though keep in mind it won't impact precision as much as the Near property.
If you only need high precision when the player can see far away, you could change it dynamically based on the game conditions. For instance, if the player enters an airplane, the Near property can be temporarily increased to avoid Z-fighting in the distance. It can then be decreased once the player leaves the airplane.
Depending on the scene and viewing conditions, you may also be able to move the Z-fighting objects further apart without the difference being visible to the player.
Transparency sorting
In Godot, transparent materials are drawn after opaque materials. Transparent objects are sorted back to front before being drawn based on the Node3D's position, not the vertex position in world space. Due to this, overlapping objects may often be sorted out of order. To fix improperly sorted objects, tweak the material's Render Priority property. This will force specific materials to appear in front or behind of other transparent materials. Even then, this may not always be sufficient.
Some rendering engines feature order-independent transparency techniques to alleviate this, but this is costly on the GPU. Godot currently doesn't provide this feature. There are still several ways to avoid this problem:
 - Only make materials transparent if you actually need it. If a material only has a small transparent part, consider splitting it into a separate material. This will allow the opaque part to cast shadows and may also improve performance.
 - If you want a material to fade with distance, use the SpatialMaterial distance fade mode Pixel Dither or Object Dither instead of PixelAlpha. This will make the material opaque. This way, it can also cast shadows.
Multi-sample antialiasing
Multi-sample antialiasing (MSAA) takes multiple coverage samples at the edges of polygons when rendering objects. It does not increase the number of color samples used to render a scene. Here's what this means in practice:
 - Edges of meshes will be smoothed out nicely (as well as supersampling would).
 - Transparent materials that use alpha testing (1-bit transparency) won't be smoothed out.
 - Specular aliasing ("sparkles" that appear on reflective surfaces) won't be reduced.
There are several ways to work around this limitation depending on your performance budget:
 - To make specular aliasing less noticeable, open the Project Settings and enable Rendering > Quality > Screen Space Filters > Screen Space Roughness Limiter. This filter has a moderate cost on performance. It should be enabled only if you actually need it.
 - Enable FXAA in addition to (or instead of) MSAA. Since FXAA is a screen-space antialiasing method, it will smooth out anything. As a downside, it will also make the scene appear blurrier, especially at resolutions below 1440p.
 - Render the scene at a higher resolution, then display it in a ViewportTexture that matches the window size. Make sure to enable Filter on the ViewportTexture flags. This technique is called supersampling and is very slow. Its use is generally only recommended for offline rendering.

Neufeld's attachment-based developmental approach
Dr. Neufeld's legacy is the meta theory of development he has constructed from joining the dots until a consistent picture emerged. His comprehensive model has evolved from years of synthesis and distillation. The result is an integrated developmental approach rooted in depth psychology, grounded in the developmental paradigm, saturated in attachment theory, congruent with current neurological research and honed by forty years of professional practice, parenting and personal reflection. In a world of fragmented knowledge, esoteric terminology, strategies divorced from their philosophical moorings, and a smorgasbord approach to treatment, Dr. Neufeld's approach is a breath of fresh air.
His insight model provides a refreshing alternative to the current cognitive behavioural fare, as well as to the medical 'disorder' approach. Dr. Neufeld's approach has clear and practical implications for practice and treatment, regardless of one's arena of involvement – child, adolescent, adult, marital or family.


Fun Facts
Yeast biocapsules can be made in different sizes. Depending on biocapsule formation conditions and the purpose of the use of biocapsules, the biocapsules can be made to be the size of a salt grain to a ping pong ball.
Small biocapsules
Small biocapsules may be desirable when fermenting inside the bottle. For example, cava and sparkling wine made with the traditional method completes secondary fermentation inside a sealed bottle. In this case, smaller biocapsules will be ideal because they can fit in the mouth of the wine bottles. Once the fermentation is done, the small biocapsules can be easily taken out through the process of disgorging, where yeast sediment is collected at the neck of the bottle and removed from the wine.
Large biocapsules
Larger biocapsules may be optimal for fermentation in high volume tanks. A large size can facilitate viewing and handling of the biocapsule under industrial production conditions. This allows that in many occasions we avoid losses of important volumes of the alcoholic product and save in clarification systems.
In symbyo, just like how we can customize the type of yeastinside the biocapsules, we are able to customize the sizeof the biocapsules by tweaking some conditions during the formation process.


Longmen Caves China
Longmen Caves China carved by human hands for 634 years. They are located next to the ancient capital Luoyang. The city has a population of over 7 million and has several attractions. One is the caves with rock frescoes, which were started in 493. Longmen Caves are visible if you are sailing on the Yi River. They are part of China's world cultural heritage. Such rock complexes of similar size are still in three places.
The Mogao Caves in Dunhuang, the Yungang Caves in Datong and the Dazu Caves in Chongqing, which I have already published. The caves are located in the valley of the Yihe River between the fragrant mountain and Longmen mountain. The construction of the caves began in the Northern Wei dynasty and lasted about 400 years until the Tang dynasty. There are a total of 2345 niches, over 100,000 Buddha statues and more than 2,800 inscriptions.
The largest statue is the 17-meter Vairocana Buddha and the smallest micro-engraving figure of the Buddha is only 2 inches high. Hundreds of thousands of stonemasons have carved into the nearby rocks. Most of the statues are well preserved, or at least the ones I saw.
It is amazing how they are preserved or protected from the weather (rain and wind). The panoramic tour is well done, but be prepared to climb over 800 steps and as many more to descend to see the main part of the statues. Bookmark and Share

I must also write that on both sides of the Yihe River you can see everything down to the smallest statue. Quite a laborious job if you ask me. I saw a similar scale of figures carved into the rocks in the mystical stone city Petra.
There are carved stairs next to each statue in the rocks, but unfortunately they are not accessible to tourists for obvious reasons. There are small holes in which small statues of Buddha are carved.
Across the river is the Xiangshan Temple Buddhist Complex opposite the Longmen Caves, the Grottoes of the Dragon Gate, in Luoyang City with its characteristic curved, colorful pagoda roofs. The influence of Indian culture is felt here. If you buy a ticket you can visit everything in this attraction.
It is much cheaper than just exploring the Longmen Caves of China. The whole complex is a pedestrian zone, which is a great advantage for tourists. Everything is very well maintained, not to mention the cleanliness. In general, in China you need a lifetime to look at everything properly. We hope we have been helpful to you. In this city of Luoyang, I had the kindest welcome at the hotel where I was staying.
As usual the only foreigner. I guess they even gave me a more expensive room than the one I had booked. Every day they wrote to me on a note that I was a valuable guest, they left a plate with bananas, cherry tomatoes and yogurt in the room, which they then told me was normal for a very valuable (respected) guest. They offered extra free mineral water and in the end they even took me to the station in a company car. I'm not sure why I was so served.
Also, in this city I went to eat at a market next to a fenced neighborhood (closed ghetto), where they cooked very tasty and it was very cheap and I was very happy to eat among ordinary people.

School Administration and Innovative education
School Administration or Academic administration is a branch of employees responsible for the maintenance an supervision of the institution and separate from the faculty or academics, although some personnel may have joint responsibilities. Some types of separate administrative structure exists at almost a;; academic institutions, as fewer and fewer schools are governed by employees who are also involved in academic or scholarly work. Many administrators are academics with advanced degrees who no longer teach or conduct research.
Some of the key responsibilities in School administration include supervision of academic affairs such as opening teaching and counselor positions, hiring, promotion, tenure and evaluation. In higher education (college) they also handle admissions of students. Maintenance of official records, financial flows and records, oversight of student life and activities. Also, it handles the maintenance of campus grounds and safety and security of people and school property. The School administration also must be able to provide academic tools, such as classroom aids, education software (if necessary) and the required education technology. Academic administration is also an important field to consider while getting into a career in education.
In the United States, a college or university is typically supervised by a President or Chancellor who reports regularly to a Board of Trustees (made up of individuals from outside the institution) and who serves as Chief Executive Officer. Most large colleges and universities now use an administrative structure with a tier of vice presidents, among whom the Provost (or Vice President for Academic Affairs) serves as the chief academic officer.
Special education schools require also people knowledgeable in Academic administration, since they need to accommodate the students, since some of them might require special needs. In some cases the school might need extra funding aside from the normal budget, it is a responsibility from the administrators to program and organize fund raising activities to aid the school.
Opening counseling and teaching positions is directly decided by the School administration.
