typeName() = atom() | {module(), {atom(), arity()}} | {atom(), arity()}
Returns the name of a called function. The result is a representation of the name of the applied function F/A, if Node represents a function application "F(X_1, ..., X_A)". If the function is not explicitly named (i.e., F is given by some expression), only the arity A is returned.
The evaluation throws syntax_error if Node does not represent a well-formed application expression.
See also: analyze_function_name/1.
Analyzes an attribute node. If Node represents a preprocessor directive, the atom preprocessor is returned. Otherwise, if Node represents a module attribute "-Name...", a tuple {Name, Info} is returned, where Info depends on Name, as follows:
{module, Info}
where Info = analyze_module_attribute(Node).
{export, Info}
where Info = analyze_export_attribute(Node).
{import, Info}

The evaluation throws syntax_error if Node does not represent a well-formed export attribute.
See also: analyze_attribute/1.
Returns the file name and line number of a file attribute. The result is the pair {File, Line} if Node represents "-file(File, Line).".
The evaluation throws syntax_error if Node does not represent a well-formed file attribute.
See also: analyze_attribute/1.
Analyzes a "source code form" node. If Node is a "form" type (cf. erl_syntax:is_form/1), the returned value is a tuple {Type, Info} where Type is the node type and Info depends on Type, as follows:
{attribute, Info}
where Info = analyze_attribute(Node).
{error_marker, Info}
where Info = erl_syntax:error_marker_info(Node).
{function, Info}
where Info = analyze_function(Node).
{warning_marker, Info}
where Info = erl_syntax:warning_marker_info(Node).
For other types of forms, only the node type is returned.
The evaluation throws syntax_error if Node is not well-formed.
See also: analyze_attribute/1, analyze_function/1, erl_syntax:error_marker_info/1, erl_syntax:is_form/1, erl_syntax:warning_marker_info/1.

In a conversation with radio host Frank Stasio, Michael Lansing, history professor and chair of the history department at Augsburg University, explores the beginnings of processed food in America. Lansing takes a step back to the 1870's, the root of the industrial food take off in the diet of Americans.
He identified processed meat, canned food, and carbohydrates as the three primary sectors in this new diet. Lansing touched on some factors that affected the change of diets, declaring that intensive marketing campaigns convinced consumers to believe industrial food was better for their lifestyle. Cheap railroad transportation and the negotiations made by mass producers allowed them to sell at a cheaper price than local makers. In the early 20th century, more people began to move from rural to urban areas, which reduced the opportunity to farm their own food, making industrial food more reliable, explains Lansing.

Problem with Vector Size
ProtocolProtocol Cincinnati
Hi, I'm supposed to write a program that goes through a matrix line by line and if it finds anything stores the column number of the 1 in a vector, if it finds nothing zero is supposed to be stored in that place. IF there's nothing in the entire row, an empty vector is to be stored that is 0 x 0 in length, that's the catch. I've written code that looks for anything on a line and stores it, but I can't get the code to store a 0 x 0 length empty vector for empty rows. I even go back through the code and set the relevant lines equal to [], but it doesn't give me a 0 x 0 vector, it yields a 1 x 0 vector. Can anyone help me to solve this?
function out = logipack(V)
m = size(V, 1);
S = cell(m, 1);
for r = 1:m
S{r} = find(V(r, :));
m = size(V, 1);
if isempty(V(r))
S{r}= [];
end
end
out = S;
end

Redemption - Reflection by Canon Myles
Read Canon Myles' reflection for Tuesday, 6 April, 2021
It is all too easy not to encounter 'Redemption' when you visit Liverpool Cathedral. What on earth am I writing about? 'Redemption' is a work of art which has been in the Chapel of the Holy Spirit for the last 25 years. It was planned originally only to be there for twelve months, but happily it is still with us. It has a fascinating history.
It is the work of two very different artists who in the course of their work, struck up a most unlikely friendship. Arthur Dooley is known for his sculpture, including the Black Christ on the Methodist Church on Princes Road and St Mary del Quay in Liverpool Parish Church. He lived an eventful and colourful life, and was once described by Nicholas Frayling as a 'rough, tough, large adopted scouser.'
Ann McTavish came to Liverpool to study at Liverpool School of Art and became one of the world's most talented embroiderers, who produced work on an epic scale.
The two became firm friends, and Arthur became convinced that they should produce a religious work together, using metal, stone and textiles. Ann took a considerable amount of persuasion, but eventually agreed. The theme was to be either a Resurrection or Crucifixion figure of Jesus combined with the veil of the Temple being rent in two at the moment of the Crucifixion. It was to be called 'Redemption.' By 1993, Ann had begun work on the veil of the Temple.
On Christmas Eve, 1993, they attended Evensong together at Liverpool Cathedral and agreed to meet up early in the new year to take forward their planned collaboration. Sadly, this was not to be, for Arthur died in the first week of January 1994. Ann was deeply saddened by the death of her friend, and her thoughts were that the project must now be abandoned, as Arthur had not created his figure of Christ before he died.
She and Arthur's mother went on a tour to see Arthur's work, and at the Swedish Church on Park Road, there were two pieces by him. One of them was the figure which now forms part of 'Redemption,' and it was clear to Ann that this would enable her to complete this joint project. A short service was held in the Chapel of the Holy Spirit in January 1996 on the second anniversary of Arthur's funeral.
'Redemption' remains there after 25 years, still proclaiming the power and joy of the Risen Christ, and with the good news that the barriers between God and humanity have been torn down. When the curtain was divided, Mark tells us that the Roman Centurion – a gentile pagan – declared 'Truly, this man was the Son of God.' The Easter hope is now open to us all.
When you are next in the Cathedral, which we hope and pray will be soon, take a moment to visit the Chapel of the Holy Spirit, remember both Arthur and Ann, and, with their help, ponder our world's redemption.
Happy Easter to everyone!

Point Cloud Structure and Output Formats
Organized point cloud
Zivid outputs an organized point cloud. This means that the point cloud is laid out as a 2D array of points that resembles an image like structure. An unorganized point cloud is generally stored as a list of points in a 1D array. In both cases, the XYZ data are provided for each point as well as the RGB values.
There are several advantages to this structure.
 - Algorithms designed for unorganized point clouds work on organized as well, because a 2D array can be interpreted as a 1D array. This is not always true the other way around.
 - Ordered point clouds have a 1:1 correlation between pixels in the 2D images (color and depth) and 3D points in the point cloud. This means that the neighboring pixels in the image are the neighboring points in the point cloud. This enables 2D operations and algorithms to be applied to the 2D image, while the result can be applied directly to the point cloud. For example, for object detection and segmentation, one can segment the 2D image and directly extract the 3D points from the desired pixels.
 - The orderliness of points speeds up computation and lowering the cost of certain algorithms, especially operations using neighboring points.
Zivid point cloud
Zivid cameras uses a sensor with 2.3 MP (1920 x 1200 for Zivid One+ and 1944 x 1200 for Zivid Two) to capture point clouds of a scene. Because of the 1:1 correlation between pixels and points, the generated point cloud consists of 2.3 million points. For every pixel, XYZ (mm), RGB (8-bit), and SNR can be provided, where SNR is the Signal-to-Noise Ratio. The data is stored as a matrix of shape [1920, 1200, 7] or [1944, 1200, 7] depending on the camera.
Zivid inside a protective housing
Color and depth image can be directly extracted from a Zivid point cloud. Examples of how to do this are shown in our GitHub repository.
Zivid output formats
From Zivid Studio, you can save the point cloud in Zivid Data File (*.zdf). In addition, you can export the point cloud (File → Export) in the following formats:
 - PLY file - Unordered points (*.ply)
 - PLY file - Ordered points (*.ply)
 - ASCII points (*.xyz)
 - Point Cloud Data File - Unordered (*.pcd)
Zivid studio export options
The Zivid Data File (*.zdf) is the native Zivid file format. If you are using the API, you can loop over the point cloud and save the X, Y, Z, R, G, B, and SNR data in whichever format you prefer. Check out our Samples to see how to read or convert Zivid data using C++, C#, Python, and MATLAB.
The easiest way to view a Zivid point cloud is to copy the ZDF file to your PC and use Zivid Studio. Alternatively, you could use the API to convert ZDF to PLY (or use our Python script) and use a 3D viewer, e.g. MeshLab or CloudCompare.
ASCII points (*.xyz)
ASCII characters are used to store cartesian co-ordinates. XYZ are separated with white space. In our version, RGB values are also added for each point. Each new point is separated with a newline character. This file can be viewed in a regular text editor.
PLY file (*.ply)
PLY is a file format developed at Stanford. Learn more about PLY.
Point Cloud Data file (*.pcd)
PCD is a file format native for Point Cloud Library. Learn more about PCD.


text: Airborne Electromagnetic (AEM) Remote Sensing – is a kind of remote sensing method to collect extensive volumes of data from aircraft. Primary purpose is to execute geophysical mapping in fast & cost-effective way which can cover large geographical areas. No need for new drilling on ground access. By using 3D modelling and visualization software, the quick turnaround subsurface mapping would be possible. The procedure is to involve a small airplane or UAV towing a sensor loop for about 30meters above the surface. It will generate an electromagnetic signal transmitted into the earth based on the subsurface properties and creating a secondary field measured from the aircraft. The data will be processed to estimate subsurface electrical properties that would help geoscientists establish the nature of the subsurface.

Subject: Pumped storage reservoir system simulation Posted: 2/23/2012 Viewed: 28356 times
is ti possible to simulate pumped storage reservoir system with weap21?
if i connect a transmision link with a reservoir this flow will go through the turbine?
Mr. Jack Sieber
Subject: Re: Pumped storage reservoir system simulation Posted: 2/24/2012 Viewed: 28335 times
Pumped-storage hydropower ( _URL_ ) is typically used to balance electricity loads over short durations (hours or days). Because this is shorter than the usual WEAP timestep, it won't have much effect on the WEAP simulation. However, you could probably simulate it using a demand site to draw water from the reservoir and return it to the pumped storage reservoir (off the river). Another diversion could draw water from the pumped storage reservoir back to the main river when necessary. You could use a flow requirement on the diversion and the "Maximum Diversion" variables to regulate this outflow.
Water drawn from river reservoirs directly via transmission links does not pass through the turbines nor generate electricity. If you want to generate hydropower, attach the transmission link to the river immediately below the reservoir. However, the opposite is true for "local" reservoirs (not on a river)--flows through transmission links from a local reservoir DO pass through hydropower turbines and do generate hydropower.

Firstly i want to thank you for your quick answer.
I dont exactly understand why do you use diversion for return water in to the river.
I have have done something similar like that you are describing above.I have 2 in river reservoirs. Lets assume that A is the upstream reservoir and B is the downstream. I have made a dummy demand site which draws water from B and return's it to A.Then i placed a flow requirement above dam A and dam B.Do you believe that this model is right?
A:upstream hydroelectric Reservoir
B:downstream hydroelectric Reservoir
D:dummy demand site

Safeguarding Food & Agriculture
Greenpeace is campaigning for safe, ecological agriculture that's good for the planet and good for people.
China has one of the world's greatest agricultural dilemmas: it must feed 22% of the world's population on just 7% of the world's land.
Unfortunately, China has adopted an unsustainable solution: a chemical-intensive system of agriculture, with high levels of chemical pesticide and fertiliser use. What's more, our food supply is also threatened by genetically engineered foods – a move that would gamble with the health of millions of people.
Greenpeace is working in China and Hong Kong to protect our food from dangerous chemicals and genetically engineered ingredients, for the sake of our families and our future.

Moortec recasts in-chip thermal sensor for TSMC N5 process
The result is a considerable space saving and the opportunity, deploy many more probes and do fine-grained thermal feedback, which is increasingly being used in application software as part of load-balancing and functionality.
Moortec has been supplying process, voltage and thermal (PVT) sensor IP for semiconductor manufacturing processes since the company's formation in 2005. Early use of this technology was to perform the simple shut down to protect a system or chip from overheating. This has moved on to providing thermal information as an indicator of processing activity for use in dynamic voltage and [clock] frequency scaling (DVFS).
The company has now come up with a distributed thermal sensor (DTS) that allows up to 16 sensor probes to be distributed across an area of die and communicate back with a hub and on to a PVT controller. As with previous iterations of the thermal sensor IP multiple such sensor nodes can be included on a die.
But in the DTS version it can run off core voltage supply rather than the I/O supply Vdd. Each sample point is 2 percent the size of the previous generation of thermal sensor and even with 16 sample points and the control hub there is a 7x area saving, Moortec said.
The DTS generation of thermal IP is targeting TSMC's 6nm, 5nm and lower manufacturing process nodes. The company said it may opt to also go back up to the popular 7nm node. The accuracy of the DTS probe is similar to the previous generation at +/-5degreeC uncalibrated and +/-1degreeC calibrated.
But the ability to sprinkle multiple probe points across the die with little area cost can make for a more fine-grained and accurate understanding of thermal hot spots and a better response to them.
"We've seen a clear need for tighter thermal control of semiconductor devices," said Stephen Crosher, CEO of Moortec, in a statement. "Multicore architectures applied to AI, automotive, consumer and many other applications, benefiting from highly distributed sensing schemes to minimize system-level power consumption, optimize data throughput, and improve product lifetimes."

Farmers in Bukwo District have until recently been involved in small scale farming which limited adoption to modern methods of farming. The district mainly engages in growing maize, wheat and barley as their main cash crops.
By Nicholas Oneal
Farmers in Bukwo District have until recently been involved in small scale farming which limited adoption to modern methods of farming.
The district mainly engages in growing maize, wheat and barley as their main cash crops.
Due to a drop in the prices of heat and maize, most farmers in the region are now concentrating on barley farming which requires more acreage for better tonnage.
Due to increase in farming acreage, the famers have now adopted mechanized farming thus improving yields and reducing post-harvest losses.
Farmers say they have adopted barley because of the ready market and stable prices. Barley is used as a main ingredient in the manufacture of beer.
"People here were growing maize and wheat but the prices were so poor and unstable. In 1992 a beer making firm introduced barley growing to Sebei people. That firm did not stay long because Bukwo is a hard to reach area. However, three years ago, Nile Breweries Limited came on board and they have set up a barley nucleus farm here in Bukwo," said Festus Juma Mukhwana, the Lc3 Chairperson of Bukwo District.
"NBL has promoted barley growing through providing free seeds, inputs and they have also introduced us to the use of machinery like combined harvesters."
Last year, Sebei region under the Greater Sebei combined harvester scheme produced about 550 metric tons of barley which was significantly low according to NBL, the lead consumer of barley from this region.
This year, as of last week, 568 tonnes had been harvested from 584 tonnes with an estimated over 500 acres not harvested.
"We expect over 3,120 metric tonnes of barley from Bukwo District this year," Augustine Labu, the Assistant Farm Manager of Bukwo Barley Nucleus Farm said.
Asked to explain the bumper harvest, Labu said: "NBL bought two tractors and we have hired about seven combined harvesters from Kenya. This means we have limited post-harvest losses."
A kilogram of barley currently goes for sh1100, sh200 more than what it cost last year.
Boniface Muneria, 61, a barley farmer in Bukwo ploughed 22 acres and got 240 bags of barley.
From this, he earned sh26 million compared to the sh11 million plus he earned from 8 acres last year.
He attributes this improvement to increased acreage thus use of mechanization and limited losses.
Greater use of machine labor at the farm level, in processing, and transportation has the potential to increase yields and decrease post-harvest loss. The result will be improvements in the quality of life for farmers and communities in Uganda.

Windrose Line
Windrose network -16 vertex/Portolan
Image of Petrus Vesconte
A rhumbline network, more properly called, a windrose network, or sometimes also called harbour-finding chart, compass chart, or rhumb chart, is a navigational aid drawn on early portolan charts dating from the medieval to early modern period. This network is like a web (see picture) forming a grid on the map.
Before accurate surveying there was no method for measuring longitude at sea so maps possessed many distortions especially in the east west direction. There was also distortion due to the curvature of the Earth's surface. The multitude of compass roses with straight lines extending outwards across the map derived from how the maps were then made by compiling empirical observations from navigators who attempted to follow a constant bearing at sea. [1]
To calculate a course to follow from a ships position to a point of desired destination, one would identify the windrose thought to be closest to the ships position. Then using a parallel rule — the "line of course" taken from the rose to the point of destination,would be transferred to the ships known position.
The lines are not true rhumb lines in the modern sense, since these can only be drawn on modern map projections and not on 13th-century charts.[2] They were close to true rhumb lines in the Mediterranean area but highly inaccurate in the Teixeira planisphere and the other planispheres drawn in any pre-Mercator projection.
The grid can be easily spotted (as parchment is quite translucent) by observing the map from its rear face, with a light source illuminating the other side. The hole in the center of the circle, origin of the whole network, is also clearly visible from the rear.[3]
Rhumblines vs. windrose lines
A part of the Catalan Atlas.
All portolan maps share these characteristic "windrose networks", which emanate from compass roses located at various points on the map (or mapamundi). These better called "windrose lines" are generated "by observation and the compass", and are designated today as "lines of course" or "lines of rhumb" ("rhumb lines" in the fourteenth century, traced on portolan's particular projection, though not to be confused with modern rhumb lines, meridians or isoazimuthals).
To understand that those lines should be better called "windrose lines", one has to know that portolan maps are characterized by the lack of map projection, for cartometric investigation has revealed that no projection was used in portolans, and those straight lines they could be loxodromes only if the chart was drawn on a suitable projection.[2]
As leo Bagrow states:"..the word ("Rhumbline") is wrongly applied to the sea-charts of this period, since a loxodrome gives an accurate course only when the chart is drawn on a suitable projection. Cartometric investigation has revealed that no projection was used in the early charts, for which we therefore retain the name 'portolan'."[2]
Network design
Portolan by Petrus Vescomte
Pujades in his book "Les cartes portolanes" has a chapter with all known theories and, with the aim to clarify the controversial arguments, he shows an image of Petrus Vesconte drawing a portolan in one of his maps in which it is visible how he started by drawing first the rhumbline grid. Some authors call it "winds network" instead of using the term "rhumbline network" or "network of rhumblines".[4][5][6]
The circle is divided into sixteen equal parts defining a hexadecagon, then the network of sailing directions "for a 16 winds rose" is represented by groups of 16 "straight lines" called rhumblines. From each vertex, 7 rhumblines are projected towards the hexadecagon's interior connecting "in an alternated pace" to 7 of the vertex opposite to it, but without routing any line to connect that vertex to the other 8 intermixed vertex. The remaining 9 rhumblines (to complete the 16 winds) are projected from each vertex towards the exterior of the hexadecagon, although in some portolans those 9 lines do not appear.[6]
The lines of the courses for the eight main directions (or winds) are drawn with black ink (or sometimes gold); the eight intermediate directions (half-winds) are drawn in green; and in the case of a 32 winds rose, the sixteen remaining (quarter-winds) are drawn in red. The intersection of this set of "rhumblines" determine on the portolans a varied pattern of symmetrical squares, parallelograms, trapezoids and triangles.[3]
Vellum map creation process
The process for a vellum chart creation used to be as follows:
 - They prepared a vellum of good size, or several of them glued together.
 - They drew a well-centered hexadecagon (or two linked by a vertex) with a network of 16 lines per vertex (with the different colors mentioned above: black, green and red).[6]
 - They copied on top of the grid the coasts lines trying to let the 16 vertex in visible places, as shown in Vescomte's portolan picture with its rhumbline network drawing a 16 vertex regular polygon (hexadecagon) that is perfectly centered on the parchment.
 - In the case of the Mediterranean sometimes contained two hexadecagons and has the two opposite corners matching what is called the "portolan diaphragm " (axis of the Mediterranean.. or parallel of Rhodes).
 - Finally they labeled and decorated the whole vellum with more or less profusion.
Planispheres with double hexadecagon
In large planispheres, especially those containing the oceans (World Map), the cartographer used to draw two hexadecagons with the two opposite corners superimposed in the center of the vellum. There are plenty of mappae mundi that use the double-hexadecagon rhumbline networks but they can not be considered portolan charts since they do not have any ports indicated on them.
In the Cresques planisphere one is able to read the names of those lines which were winds: tramontana, levante, ponente, mezzogiorno, greco, sirocco, and lebegio. When limited to small seas, planispheres approximately follow both rhumb lines and great circles. But on big oceans they do not follow either of them, due to the imprecision of the map making of that time, corresponding more or less accurately to rhumb lines only in the Mediterranean portolan charts and deviating greatly in the Texeira planisfere (among others).

Rhumb line construction scheme with two hexadecagon in the Cantino planisphere
Double hexadecagon in Texeira's planisphere
Rhumb line construction scheme with two hexadecagon in the Texeira planisphere
Use of rhumblines
To calculate on a portolan chart the course to follow from a point of origin to a point of destination, one should transfer — using a parallel rule — the "line of course" drawn from the point of origin to the point of destination, on top of the Compass rose closest to the ship's position, obtaining on it the theoretical course to be followed when sailing towards the destination. This theoretical course may have to be modified (as many times as needed) when tacking if the wind is right ahead of you, or to correct the effects of leeway, currents, etc... that a sailor with experience should be able to calculate empirically.

We develop an efficient estimation procedure for identifying and estimating the central subspace. Using a new way of parameterization, we convert the problem of identifying the central subspace to the problem of estimating a finite dimensional parameter in a semiparametric model. This conversion allows us to derive an efficient estimator which reaches the optimal semiparametric efficiency bound. The resulting efficient estimator can exhaustively estimate the central subspace without imposing any distributional assumptions. Our proposed efficient estimation also provides a possibility for making inference of parameters that uniquely identify the central subspace. We conduct simulation studies and a real data analysis to demonstrate the finite sample performance in comparison with several existing methods.

Shipwreck! Philadelphia Museum of Art exhibits 19th-century rescue scenes
Shipwreck! Winslow Homer and 'The Life Line' is on view at the Philadelphia Museum of Art through Dec. 16.
PHILADELPHIA—Even today, when few people except professional sailors and fishermen are compelled to step foot on a boat, shipwreck is a powerful fear. Drowning may be a relatively painless way to go, but the idea of a cold, lonely death in a howling sea can make the most dedicated landlubber's spine tingle.
With thousands of miles of coastline, and a burgeoning immigrant population arriving by boat, that fear was vividly felt by millions of Americans in the 19th century, when shipwreck was not just something one read about in Shakespeare, but a common and terrifying disaster, claiming hundreds of lives every year.
In 1884, Winslow Homer painted a large and dynamic canvas that played on the fear and fascination of maritime disaster. The Life Line depicted the rescue of an unconscious woman by a heroic male figure whose face is obscured by a billowing red shawl. The two figures sprawl on a "life chair," suspended from a taut life line that connects the ship to shore. They dangle precariously above a ferocious trough of churning waves, and with neither the wrecked boat nor the safe shore in sight, they seem suspended in time, not yet safe, but happily above the watery maw that foams and sprays all around them.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art has devoted an entire exhibition to the Homer work, analyzing a small subgenus of sea painting that turns out to have deep roots not just in the history of maritime art, but in philosophical, historical and political debates as well. Shipwreck! Winslow Homer and 'The Life Line' brings together diverse strands of intellectual history, from the now largely forgotten tradition of life-saving and rescue along the Atlantic seacoast to the persistent question of American exceptionalism: Are we the sort of people who put women and children first, who will go to exceptional lengths to preserve life, or are we a dog-eat-dog nation, where every-man-for-himself is the ruling ethos?
Homer's picture was a popular and critical success during the artist's lifetime, but it has been overshadowed since by his later sea paintings, in which the abstract drama of water takes precedence over the narrative drama in The Life Line. Homer was never really comfortable painting faces, and his figure painting is often clumsy. But in The Life Line he finessed his weaknesses, obscuring the male face entirely and painting the woman lost in an expressionless swoon. What emerges is the pure drama of their predicament, and the implied sexual tension in their close embrace.
Homer was building on a long and established tradition of shipwreck painting. The exhibition uses a 1772 painting by the French artist Claude-Joseph Vernet (borrowed from the National Gallery of Art) to show the respectable roots of this often overly melodramatic and formulaic genus. But it also includes several decidedly lesser samples of what was a common recipe: broken masts and surly skies, drenched and exhausted survivors clambering ashore, brooding rocks and wild water framing the human tragedy.
By the 19th century, the iconography of rescue — from all manner of disasters including fire — was a convenient way to broach sexual themes. Just as religious ecstasy was a safe way to suggest sexual pleasure, women could be placed in the arms of strong men without any overt scandal so long as the man was a rescuer, doing his heroic, manly duty. Women's bodies could also be depicted a bit more lasciviously than was normally allowed if they were dead, washed ashore and scantily clad. Wet T-shirts were OK so long as there was a good reason why they were wet.
Two popular images by the atrocious 19th-century artist Henry Edward Dawe show the range and reach of this conceit. The 1832 My Child! My Child! shows a woman overboard, holding her baby aloft in hope of rescue. They're Saved! They're Saved! completes the drama, with a sailor plucking them from the water and hoisting them to safety. But the content of the images is mildly pornographic: The bare breasts of the woman and the rippling muscled back of the sailor. Displayed nearby are two porcelain vases that use the same Dawe images as decoration and there are subtle but telling differences between the prints and their reproduction on a standard bit of houseware: There are no bare breasts on the vases, which would presumably have been on open display and thus subject to a more public, moralizing gaze.
A close examination of Homer's The Life Line suggests the artist was going the opposite direction as he refined the image: heightening the sexuality for greater impact. Close analysis of the painting, including modern imaging techniques and comparison with related images and a preparatory drawing, show Homer making his female figure more dainty and playing with the arrangement of the man's hands in a way that emphasizes her weakness and subtly calls attention to her breasts. By painting a shawl over the man's face, Homer not only avoided his own artistic weakness, he made the man anonymous and mysterious, far from the generic boy scout physiognomy of most contemporary rescue images.
The exhibition loses focus with a sidetrack into the parallel tradition of painting peasants and fishing communities, which is only tangentially related to the Homer work. But a room devoted to the professionalization of life-saving and coast guard work is surprisingly timely. After several deadly shipwrecks in the 1870s, including the wreck of the Atlantic in 1873 (with more than 500 lost), popular outrage led to government action, and the establishment of a professional network of coastal life-saving. The results were impressive: The use of lifelines (fired from a cannon on shore), lifeboats and the presence of skilled lifesavers along the shoreline saved thousands of lives.
Over the course of the 19th century, boats became safer, and navigation more precise. But human fears have deep vestigial roots, and paradoxically as the danger diminished, the fear grew more intense. And it lives on in films such as Titanic, and The Perfect Storm, and in the trailers for Life of Pi. But the appetite for the disaster image has shifted over the past century: It's hard to imagine, for example, that images of bodies from the 9-11 attacks would be popular fare for artists today. Disaster imagery must today be either at a geopolitical remove (happening to other people safely remote from people like us) or so stylized as to be no more terrifying than an Aesop fable.
The exhibition ends with a room of Homer's later sea paintings, made while the artist lived in Maine and as artistic taste tended to modernism. Ships and people are increasingly remote in these works, just a ghostly grey shadow in the distance, as in the 1904 Summer Squall. These later paintings engage with the sublime, a theme of maritime painting for centuries. What is the real extent of man's power? Can he indeed take arms against a sea of troubles and end them? Or is the colossus of nature always triumphant in the end? A painting is essentially a container, holding in, for a moment, some aspect of life. Homer's later work aims to stretch that container to its ultimate limits, moving away from the small dramas of people to the larger contest between life and death and oblivion.
Seen in that context, the earlier The Life Line has yet more resonance. The sexuality of the work becomes allegorical, a statement about making life in the midst of a nasty, hostile, meaningless world. A shipwreck painting transcends its own traditions by eliminating the shipwreck and focusing entirely on two people, joined together, suspended momentarily above doom.

Onda is a decorative textile piece that purifies the air.
It is constructed of fabric with a thin coating based on copper-doped titanium dioxide. When combined with this chemical coating, the textile uses daylight to create a reaction with pollution such as soot and odor, transforming them into harmless water molecules. Users can track the air quality by lightly pressing on Onda's fabric. This activates a light that will remain slow and calm while the air is clean, but become quick and frenzied when sensing pollution. Users can also momentarily boost air purification by pressing and holding the piece, lighting the frame to emit ultraviolet light, the most efficient method of rapid air purification. With interchangeable textiles and designs, Onda unites life-enhancing technology with personal expression.

Introduction of Studies Life Sciences
Pursuing the comfortable daily lives of humans comprehensively.
Studies in the sciences of living aim to create more enjoyable human living through the research of family and household relations (such as between parent and child, or husband and wife), and the effects of living environments (such as aspects of food, clothing and shelter) on people.
Subjects that are studied include basic topics such as food science, clothing studies, housing studies, and child studies. Other subjects are also studied such as lifestyle management, family studies, family care, and textile science.
The sciences of living approaches issues people face in their daily lives to devise solutions for those issues. For example, there is the issue of the environmental pollution caused by the solid and water waste people generate in their daily lives. While considering expectations for comfortable living in communities and society, researchers are pursuing ways people can live in harmony with the natural environment.

For ten years, photographer Deborah Shea Doyle traveled throughout Egypt-from bustling Cairo to remote parts of the Sinai region-to explore the landscape and learn about the lives of ordinary Egyptians, especially the Bedouins. She visited large cities and small villages and traversed through the country's inaccessible areas, which presented her with a gold mine of opportunities to capture and record interesting faces of people she encountered along the way. Her splendid collection of photographs of ordinary Egyptian men, women, and children as they work and play in their everyday lives invites readers to discover Egypt and its people as they have not been seen before. The humanity captured through her expert lens is matched by an engaging text and observations that give readers insight into the local customs and habits.


FN. Before a DFN can be created, a model domain must be specified. For this example, we specify a DFN domain extending 50 units in both the positive and negative directions (100 unit lengths) with the command model domain extent -50 50. If only two numbers are provided, it is assumed that the domain is the same size in the x, y ansd z directions.
The easiest way to create a DFN in 3DEC is by first generating a template. The DFN template is a set of statistical parameters used to generate stochastic discrete fracture networks. These parameters include size distribution, the position distribution, and the orientation distribution. By default, the DFN template uses the following properties: uniform fracture positions, uniform orientations (dip between 0^{circ} and 180^{circ}, dip direction between 0^{circ} and 360^{circ}) and sizes obeying a negative power-law distribution with an exponent of 4. If no size limits are given, the fracture sizes will range from 1.0 to infty.
For this example, we will assign a template name, a power-law distribution with an exponent of 3 restricting the fracture size (disk diameter) to values between 1 and 100. We will also set the position and orientation to have uniform distribution. This is completed using the following commands:
fracture template create 'dfn_template' size power-law 3 size-limits 2 20...
 position uniform orientation uniform
Using the previously created DFN template, a set of fractures can be generated in the previously specified domain. The generation continues until a defined stopping criterion is met. In this example, a density (P32 value) of 0.1 is used as a stopping criterion. See DFN Overview for more information of DFN densities. The resulting DFN is shown in Figure 6
Finally, fractures that are sub-parallel and close together are merged into single larger fractures. This will help prevent the formation of very thin blocks in 3DEC when the DFN is used to cut joints in the block model.
Figure 6: Generated DFN
Before creating a block model we must set the tolerance using the command 02. The tolerances affected include (1) the minimum distance between gridpoints, (2) minimum area (tolxtol) of sub-contacts, (3) tolerance to link gridpoints of joined blocks, and (4) tolerance to select vertices close to the common plane. The default atol setting is 0.0012 x the average model dimensions in x, y, and z. For this example, the default is too large and thus we require a smaller value.
A 10x10x10 block is then created. Generally, it is accepted that the DFN domain size should be larger than the rock body of interest. This is because fractures may exist with centroids outside of the rock body that extend into the rock body. These fracture fragments would be missed if the DFN domain size and rock body size were the same. We have accounted for this by creating a DFN domain with limits at pm 50 in the x-, y-, and z-directions.
We can now generate a set of discontinuities (joints) based on the previously created DFN using the following command: block cut dfn name'my_dfn'. The block is cut using the DFN with name = my_dfn. The resulting 3DEC model is shown in Figure 7.
Figure 7: Blocks after cutting
In 3DEC, joints must bisect a block. It is not possible to have a joint partially cut a block. Therefore the cutting of joints with the DFN works as follows:
 - Joints in the DFN are sorted from largest to smallest
 - For each joint, all blocks not touching the joint are hidden
 - Remaining blocks are cut with the joint
Following this procedure minimizes the number of unnecessary cuts; however, many of the joints in the 3DEC model are larger than the corresponding joints in the DFN since cuts must fully bisect blocks. This problem can be resolved by specifying different joint properties on difference sections of the joints.
Before specifying joint properties, we need to discretize the blocks into zones. This will also discretize the joint surfaces and allow different sections of each joint surface to be assigned different properties. Tetrahedral zones of a 1-unit edge length are generated using the command 0.
The joint material properties can now be assigned. The use of specific DFN commands allows for differentiating joint material inside and outside the DFN disk. This idea is illustrated below.
Each 3DEC joint is made up of subcontacts (after zoning). The subcontacts may be either inside or outside of the DFN disk as shown. Different materials properties can be assigned to the inside subcontacts using range dfn-3dec.
Joints can be easily plotted by adding the Joint Plane plot item to a plot. If you only wish to see the parts of the 3DEC joints that correspond to the actual DFN, you can right-click in the Joint Plane plot item in the Plot Item List, select Add Range Element …, and from the Visual list on the left, select DFN Distance. Uncheck the Not checkbox, check the checkbox for my_dfn, and then en ter a Distance slightly greater than 0 (e.g. 0.01). The plot of DFN joints shown look like Figure 9

Creating Internal Boundary Shapes
When fitting the 3DEC model to the problem region, polyhedral boundaries must also be defined to coincide with boundary shapes of the physical problem. These may be internal boundaries representing excavations or holes, or external boundaries representing, for example, man-made structures such as earth dams, or natural features such as mountain slopes. If the physical problem has a complicated boundary, it is important to assess whether simplification will have any effect on the questions that need to be answered (i.e., whether a simpler geometry will be sufficient to reproduce the important mechanisms).
All physical boundaries to be represented in the model simulation (including regions that will be added, or excavations created at a later stage in the simulation) must be defined before the solution process begins. Shapes of structures that will be added later in a sequential analysis must be defined and then "removed" (via the BLOCK EXCAVATE command). Excavated blocks are added with the BLOCK FILL command. Note that only deformable blocks can be excavated and filled.
The cutting of boundary shapes is performed with the following commands:
Each command cuts the polyhedra into one or more segments that are fitted together in the desired shape. The block cut joint-set commands create planar joint segments, as discussed in Joints and Joint Sets. The block cut tunnel command cuts a shape into the blocks where the shape is defined by a front and back face. The block cut geometry command cuts the blocks according to an imported geometric surface.
Block Cut Tunnel Command
The block cut tunnel command creates a tunnel whose boundary is formed by planar segments that connect two faces (designated as face-1 and face-2). The shape of the tunnel face is prescribed by an arbitrary number of vertices with coordinates (x1,y1,z1), (x2,y2,z2), (x3,y3,z3), etc. The same number of vertices must exist on both faces; the faces may be positioned either inside or outside of the model.
The example below presents a simple example for the creation of a horseshoe-shaped tunnel. The command block delete is used to delete the tunnel region (defined as group 'exc'). The resulting tunnel is shown in Figure 10.
Tunnel created with the TUNNEL command

 block-radial=2 block-tangential=1 block-axial=3
block delete range pos-x -2,2 pos-y -10,10 pos-z -2,2
Figure 10: Tunnel created with TUNNEL command
Usually, the model will be brought to an equilibrium state before the tunnel is excavated. The user must be careful that the fictitious joints along the tunnel boundary do not influence model response during the initial equilibrium calculation. If the BLOCK CUT TUNNEL command is used, the blocks are automatically joined at the fictitious joints. If BLOCK CUT JOINT-SET commands are used to create fictitious joints, then it is recommended that the block join command be used to join the blocks separated by the fictitious joint. Use the block contact list to identify whether


Jean-Louis Petit
Jean-Louis Petit (1674 – 1750)
Jean-Louis Petit (1674 – 1750) was a French surgeon and anatomist.
First postulated that 'carpal dislocations' were in fact fractures of the distal end of the radius
Inventor of the petit-type tourniquet to suspend circulation of blood quickly and easily while minimizing pain. Marked a transition in surgery from managing blood loss to preventing blood loss.
Petit was known for his surgical skill and his case reports of hemorrhage, lacrimal fistula, operation on the frenulum, treatise on bone diseases and his general treatise on surgical operations (on which he worked 12 years and which was finished after his death by F.D. Lesne)
Petit led a group surgeons of the Académie Royale de Chirurgie including Henri-François Le Dran. The team provided the first complete clinical descriptions of the extradural hematoma, contre-coup injury and the lucid interval post head injury.

Medical Eponyms
Colles fracture (1705)
Extra-articular fracture of the distal radius with dorsal angulation of the distal fragment. Frequently associated with an ulna styloid fracture and volar angulation of the fracture apex
Hippocrates described traumatic injuries about the wrist as dislocations. He defined four distinct directions of dislocations, and his influence extended for nearly 2000 years through the writings of Gallen, Palladius, Celsus, Duverney, and Fabricius.
The joint of the hand is dislocated either inward or outward, most frequently inward.
In 1705, Petit suggested that traumatic swelling and displacement at the wrist was as a result of a distal radius fracture rather than a luxation or dislocation as previously believed.
"A l'égard du déplacement selon sa longueur, je sçais que l'on peut le disputer dans la fracture d'un seul os: mais nous le prouverons ci-après d'une maniere à n'en pas douter"
Petit JL. De la fracture de l'avant bras 1705; 2: 115-126
"As to the displacing length-ways, I know it may be disputed in the fracture of one bone only: But I shall prove it hereafter so as to leave no Room to doubt it."
Petit JL. De la fracture de l'avant bras 1705; 2: 115-126
Petit-type tourniquet (1718)
1718 – Petit presented a new type of device for stopping blood flow at the Royal Scientific Academy in Paris. He attached a circular bandage to a screw and a leather pad in order to apply pressure to a specific point.
Deriving from the French word 'tourner', (to turn), Petit named his invention 'tourniquet'. This Petit-type tourniquet became the most commonly used tourniquet throughout the 1800s
The operator can control it itself without another person is obliged to keep it clamped and relax as we need it as quickly as desired; Finally he just compresses the vessels we want to compress, and gently compresses the other parties; which is a perfection that some ignorant regarded as a defect

25m * 12000km * pi = v
and the ratio v/V is how much would be sucked in with no compression. With maximum compression (i.e. all in that hole is liquid/solid), it would be 1000v/V.
"We're also talking about a cryogenically cooled hole..."
no no.. forget magma, forget nickel core.. forget how would one even built it.. doesn't matter.
Just a sphere with the mass of earth. And a shaft let's say 2 meters wide and 6 300 000 meters deep. What is the air pressure at the bottom (disregarding all other influence except gravity)? I don't know hot to calculate that, but maybe someone does and has a time to do it :)
Mass of the air above it, at least initially, 1 atmosphere.
As the airmasses reach equilibrium, central pressure will increase to the mass of air that can be sustained above will not be 600atm, though, but somewhat lower because the gravitational force of the air in the column is reduced as it drops.
I may be starting off at the wrong point here, 'cos I'm not checking my physics here, just typing off the top of my head.
You'd start off with integrating the number of moles of atmosphere you would get at 1atm in the tube for each point along the tube, multiplied by the gravitational force at that point, multiplied by the mass of 1 mole.
That would then give you the pressure at each point.
The short version is that at the centre, it could be that it is still 1 atm (if you don't allow the atmosphere to be heated above a human-comfortable 15-21C by the surrounding magma/core.
But it wouldn't be more than 600atm.
So if it does liquify, with liquid air weighing in at about 700 times the weight of the air we breathe, it could suck up most of it. I want a fair bit of promises before I allow any of you to start digging
something doesn't add up to me. You say "The short version is that at the centre, it could be that it is still 1 atm"
How come? At the surface, the pressure is 1bar. That's the value of some 30-40km vertical column of air pressing on you. At the bottom of our shaft you will have 6300 km column of air pressing on you. So how did you arrive at 1 bar at bottom? I don't think it will be 6000 bars.. because air pressure rises and falls exponentialy, but can't understand 1bar :)
It won't liquify, you'd need 700 atmospheres.
If it did, you'd get a multiple up to 600,000 atmospheres, but would still not suck up ALL the atmosphere.
"How come? At the surface, the pressure is 1bar. That's the value of some 30-40km vertical column of air pressing on you."
under 1g of acceleration.
But inside the earth, it isn't 1g any more.
Indeed at the exact centre, you have no mass pressing down and therefore need no pressure there to maintain the mass.
Also note that the pressure reduces with height, so that's not 1g/cc mass of air for 30km.
It really does work out to about 10km of atmospheric mass at sea level density.
(not pressure, density)
I think the molten lava - or radioactive nickel core - down there is under a fair bit of pressure although there's no gravity pulling it anywhere but towards the moon. All air above the center will be pushing down. The first 600 km I guess you'd hardly notice the effect of diminishing gravity.
It's being deliberately warmed, Josef.
We're discarding heating from the radioactive elements and the fossil heat from the collapse (and energy released from the phase change of the mantle/outer core around the solid core as it freezes).
"All air above the center will be pushing down. The first 600 km I guess you'd hardly notice the effect of diminishing gravity."
You don't notice any extra pressure when you're 3 miles down a mineshaft.
And already at 38 atm does air turn into a supercritical fluid, but then only at 36 times the density of our air
Only if you cooled it.
See above re Liquid Nitrogen.
"but then only at 36 times the density of our air"
Can you prove that?
Again, the theoreticians are left at a complete impasse as to the implications of their equations and it remains for the experimentalists to bring any resolution here.
As it is not an election year, government money may be a bit easier to shake loose for this, but determining the right target agency could be an issue. On the other hand, peripheral data generated in the analysis of the core samples that will need to be extracted before final excavation can begin may be of use in the private sector, so alternate funding sources could exist. The grantsmanship for this project must already be in the works.

Wow , solar heating does only occur at the surface, and causes convection, but the effect that this has on the variation of temperature with height is minimal. A column of gas will be unstable unless it cools vertically at its adiabatic lapse rate, about 1.8C/1000ft. Attempting to keep a column of air hundreds of kilometres high at a constant temperature would produce some horrendous convection currents.
Pressure does increase down a mine whether you notice it or not. So does temperature. About 40% of the increase would be present if there were no geothermal gradient.
An unprotected person moving down the bottomless pit would be cooked well before suffering from the increase in partial pressure of oxygen
I you can't be bothered doing the maths, try the link below. It accepts negative altitudes. Bearing in mind its purpose. it almost certainly does not cover the effects of reducing gravity, but it shows you will hit T&P limits well before this is a significant factor anyway.
Yes, David, you are correct. However, I've not said otherwise.
And we're talking about a hole into the ground, not a column up in to free air.
I think you need to reread the thread, you have entirely the wrong end of just about every stick here.
And that link (I've seen one very much like it elsewhere) uses the STP at the surface of the earth where it warms the surface.
And you see that statement "the warming of the surface has no effect on the variation of temperature with height"?
Here's where you're thinking entirely wrong. The height of the tropopause at the tropics is 17km, the height of the tropopause at the poles, about 12km. And the temperature of that tropopause is reversed: the polar air is warmer at ITS tropopause than the tropical air is at its tropopause.
Because the surface temperature is lower at the poles than the tropics.
Thermal winds are caused in the upper air where you have air at similar locations in the atmosphere with different temperatures.
The Jet Stream is one example.
And for anyone interested or gulled by the denier meme of "The temperature at the surface depends on pressure, that's why Venus is so hot at the surface, at 90atm pressure!!!", something to note is that Venus' upper air at 1 atm pressure is still hotter than the earth's surface average by quite a lot.
Surface temps are related not from the bottom up, but the TOA (top of atmosphere, where the average radiation level out into space is) down (via the lapse rate).
And no radiation from the opaque surface (e.g. no earth at all, only transparent gases: no radiation out to space. No TOA, no lapse rate (even if gravity were still there), and the STP calculations aren't usable.
That's similar to the problem of pressure at the centre of this tube: no apparent air column , no pressure, but that's just because the easy method of calculating air pressure doesn't really work here.
When I put -6.000.000 meters in to that calculator,
I get not that huge pressure.. only about 16 bars.. But density... omg... _PHONE_ kg/m3 and a temperature of 39 000 C !!!! :D
Which would radiate strongly in the transparent IR bands cooling the airmass down quickly without extra heat going in from somewhere else.
The sunlight from the sun at the poles isn't going to be enough!
something is definately wrong with the calculation because air at 16bars can't have that density which the program puts.. but still was fun to try
The question of the moons affect can be easily calculated. Suppose you start off in the very center of the well, floating at equilibrium in zero-g. Since we already know the distance, orbital velocity, and mass of the moon, how long would it take the moons gravity to pull you into the side of the wall? (Assume a 25m tunnel radius.)
Dang, so here's our fix. Instead of free fall, the tube now has rails at 4 points. Into these rails we set a rigging and harness which we strap ourselves into. Now we no longer need to account for anything that'll cause us to smash into the side of the tube, but our speed will now be hard to determine

Eden Lotus Root Soba is hard winter and hard spring wheat, whole buckwheat flour, lotus root powder, and a bit of sea salt. Tanaka family made as they've been doing it since 1906, now with four generations actively involved. It's an easy and delicious way to enjoy the exceptional flavor and benefit of buckwheat and lotus root.
Historical Information
Soba is the Japanese word for buckwheat Fagopyrum esculentum, a nearly forgotten healthy food with rich flavor and many benefits. Buckwheat is a hardy, wild broad leaf plant and not a grass. It belongs to the Polygonaceae or buckwheat family and is not a member of the cereal grain or Gramineae family. The fruit seed of buckwheat has long been valued in both East and West. It originated in the area of Lake Baikal in Siberia, in the Himalayas, and Manchuria. Buckwheat was cultivated and eaten in China before being adopted throughout Asia and Europe. It has long been a staple food in Russia and central Europe where known as 'kasha.'
Lotus root of a water lily, Nelumbo nucifera, is traditionally valued for promoting healthy respiratory function. When lotus root powder is added to traditional soba dough it imparts a creamy smooth texture.
The art of making noodles is believed to have originated among farmers in China. Noodles were adopted in Buddhist temples and were brought to Japan by monks. The first reference to buckwheat in Japan appears in records from the Heian period (794 - 1185 A.D.). Buckwheat noodles or'soba kiri' are mentioned in documents from the early 1600s.
Nutrition Facts
Eden Lotus Root Soba is low fat, and saturated fat and cholesterol free. It is a good source of healthy fiber, protein, and iron. It is easy to digest and traditionally eaten for its strengthening and relaxing qualities.
Commercial pasta is highly refined, chemically treated flour, processed in minutes through teflon dies and ultra high heat or microwave drying, resulting in inferior flavor, diminished nutrition, and dubious value. Eden Lotus Root Soba is a wise choice. Light, delicious and nourishing because it's made with patience, care, the best ingredients, and handling that enhances value.
Eden Lotus Root Soba are delicious, warming and strengthening food enjoy hot or chilled in dashi broth with shoyu, kombu sea vegetable, shiitake mushroom, and mirin, or drizzled with ponzu. Use it like any pasta in soups, stir-fries, and salads. Wrap them in toasted nori to make noodle sushi. Do not add salt to the cooking water. Unlike Eden Organic Soba and Udon these noodles are made with a bit of sea salt.

Cucumber, Double Yield
- Uniform 6 inch long fruit
- When one fruit is harvested, 2 or 3 more are produced
- 50-60 days
- ±1,100 seeds/oz
Introduced in 1924 by Joseph Harris Co. of Coldwater, New York. In the words of the introducer, "The remarkable thing about this new cucumber is its wonderful productiveness. For every pickle that is cut off, two or three more are produced." Very early pickling type. Green 6" long fruits are symmetrical, smooth, and uniform. 50-60 days. ±1,100 seeds/oz.
Learn to Grow it
This crop can be direct seeded into the soil after the last spring frost. You can also start plants indoors 3-6 weeks before the last frost date.
If you are direct seeding, plant in groups of 2-3 seeds and keep the healthiest plant that matures. Space your plants or seeds 12-18 inches apart and plant 1/2-1 in. deep.
Make sure that your soil is well fertilized as this crop is a heavy feeder and takes a lot of nutrients from the soil. Consider adding compost to the soil the year before you plant.
These plants prefer warm weather and soil so they should be grown when temperatures are over 68 degrees F. You should avoid watering them from above as damp leaves may be susceptible to disease.

If it came from NASA, it most likely is either Kodak or Agfa film. Let's assume Kodak. It could be either aerial film (very likely for 70mm) or cine film or ordinary still film. Since it came with that back and is unperforated, it is unlikely to be cine film. It could be either negative or positive. Many Kodak negative aerial films did not have an integral orange mask, but they were compatible with C-41 processing. My guess is that it is aerial film.
