In Sublime Text 2, you get vertical guides where your indentation is, like this:
Sublime Text screenshot
but Vim doesn't:

Is there a way to show lines like that in Vim?
By the way, my indentation is 2 spaces.

Unified answer:
If you are using tabs
I'd try using listchars:
:set listchars=tab:\|\
:set list
note: there is a space after the last \ above.
This method is good because it uses Vim's built-in support for showing this kind of thing.
Example output:
| if (1) {
| | func();
| }
screenshot of text sample above
However, this doesn't work for leading spaces. As pointed out by @Josh Petrie, there is a patch to work for spaces, but then you'd have to recompile Vim, which is beyond the scope of this answer.
If you are using spaces, and don't mind using a plugin
Vaibhav Sagar points out the plugin indentLine performs this functionality.
Install in the normal way (see installing Plugins) and it seems to magically just work without further input. If you don't mind the ASCII bars, you don't need to do anything with your fonts. Example output of your example after setting your indentation settings and running :IndentLinesReset
45 ¦ var move = function(direction) {
46 ¦ ¦ if(!initialized) { initialize(); }
47
48 ¦ ¦ if(shiftBoard(direction)) {
49 ¦ ¦ ¦ setTimeout(addRandomPiece, 100);
50 ¦ ¦ }
51 ¦ };
screenshot of example with spaces
The plugin requires Vim 7.3 or later, and makes cleaver use of that version's Conceal feature. Instead of actually hiding text, it replaces text with bars in the view, but not the actual buffer. The result is you see the bars but they don't get saved into the file (since they are actually spaces)
Caveat
Both of these methods assume "properly" indented code. They don't place the indentation lines at the level of indent when a "block" is opened (which sublime appears to do) but instead places lines at regular intervals based on your indentation settings. Additionally, it only shows the bars on lines where there is actually space (which is why the line in the vim output under the first if has no bars, making a visual gap)

 Actually, I'm using spaces to indent instead of tabs. I've updated my question.

 There is a patch to make listchars work for non-trailing spaces, which you can dig up on the mailing list. It has not, however, been accepted into the official distribution :(

 Updated answer to include information from Vaibhav Sagar and Josh Petrie. I tried out the plugin Vaibhav mentioned and show the results in the edited answer. I think I'm going to start using this plugin myself. It's not fantastic, but in general seems to work pretty well.

 indentLine works alright for python, json, viml, c, c++, etc. But unfortunately it doesn't work with vim-javascript, so I vim-indent-guides instead.

Another option I use, which isn't exactly what you asked for, but accomplishes the same purpose of making it easier to see what is in the same column, is to set the following in your vimrc:
set cursorcolumn
set cursorline
cursorcolumn illustration
This has the trade off that you have to move your cursor to the column you want to see, but you get less visual clutter. Usually when I care about indentation levels, I'm keeping my place with the cursor anyway. My way also isn't as awkward-looking in languages like python without closing braces.

For the sake of completeness, there is also the Indent Guides plugin, which shows the indentation levels by alternating the colors of white spaces. It requires version 7.2 or later. Since it uses the tabstop and shiftwidth variables, it will probably work for your indentation settings right away.
Imgur
Once the plugin is installed, you can simply use:IndentGuidesEnable or :IndentGuidesDisable. If you are using terminal vim, note that, according to the manual,
At the moment Terminal Vim only has basic support. This means is that colors won't be automatically calculated based on your colorscheme. Instead, some preset colors are used depending on whether background is set to dark or light.
In order to change the colors of the guides for the screenshot, I used the following
let g:indent_guides_auto_colors=0
so the colors are not recalculated when buffers are swapped, and then set the colors using
hi IndentGuidesEven ctermbg=238
hi IndentGuidesOdd ctermbg=236
As with the other solutions presented, it only shows the indent guides on lines were there are spaces.

 add let g:indent_guides_enable_on_vim_startup=1 to my .vimrc to enable this on startup.

I've found the indentLine plugin to be the best for this. You do need a font with the appropriate symbols though, I find Consolas on Windows and Menlo on Mac OS X work well. As is pointed out in the unified answer above, it works by (ab)using vim's conceal feature to put vertical bars (from the font used) in the right place. I'm pretty happy with this solution but the disadvantage to it is that my vertical bars are part of the box-drawing glyphs and they are center-aligned instead of left-aligned like in other editors. I've gotten used to it but it can be fixed by manually patching your font or using a font like Fantasque Sans Mono (note how the screenshots in the linked github repo use indentLine).

 - Which glyph is the patched vertical line? Can you paste it here? Thanks.

The indentLine plugin tends to be fairly slow on non-small files, observable when clicking enter as it lags by a second or so.
I've found vim-indentguides to be a faster and visually similar plugin, that also visually distinguishes tab indents versus space indents.

Try the most recent updated of Goneovim, not the current release 0.4.6.
It's not pure vim but a neovim gui, and it does not gain much attention. The indent guides feature of goneovim is native, and works much better than vim/neovim plugins. enter image description here

If it's a non-affine transformation, then you're going to have trouble with line segments staying straight when they should be curved in the image's space. This is a general problem with transforming vectors, and with sufficiently small line segments, isn't usually too much of a problem.
If you don't know ahead of time what the projection parameters are for the image, or if they cannot be represented by standard map-projection parameters - if the image hasn't been rectified for instance - then you really have one course open to you: manual rasterization. If you're on 3D-accelerated hardware, it would be a fairly simple fragment shader to map from one space to another, given that you have the function already. However, if you're working on a headless server or similar, you'll need to roll your own polygon rasterizer, transforming points from one space to the other as you go. This isn't too difficult, and much has been written on it in the past, but it is mostly just time-consuming to write.
A simple, if not very efficient, method would be to scan over each pixel in the satellite image, transform the coordinate into your polygons' space, and do a simple inside/outside test of that point on your polygons. If it's inside, then colour your pixel appropriately. Lines are a bit harder with this method, but you essentially have to measre the cross-track error of your point against the line, and colour it if it is within some distance, but this won't be very pretty. You could use an alpha value based on the CTE, which would smooth the lines out somewhat, but it's hardly the cutting edge of anti-aliasing.

Natural rivers are often compound channels constituted by main channel and flood plain, the flow conditions are very complicated during the flood. The characteristics of Taiwan's rivers include steep slope and fast flow, channel migration and bed erosion often happen at the lower-middle reaches. Under the global climate migration, the variation of rainfall intensity, rainfall duration, rainfall distribution and flow discharge induce extending the period of low water level or increasing the main channel flow. Therefore reconsidering assessment stability of channel and standard of protection embankment is necessary. Many of rivers on the Western Taiwan have the problems of channel migration, in the different types of river, the flow of meandering river through curve is affected by centripetal force, super-elevation, higher water surface of concave and lower water surface of convex, channel morphology affected by discharge.
This study adopts the assessment of future rainfall in Bajhang River made by NCDR, and uses SOBEK rainfall-runoff model to estimate the discharge. The results show under climate migration the return period between100 year and 200year exceed the amount of flood plan in the lower-middle reaches of Bajhang River, from Bajhang River Bridge to Housheng Bridge. Then analysis the stability of compound channel and the process of channel migration by using CCHE1D and CCHE2D sediment models simulating each cases of different return periods and long period case.

Voluntary adoption of EU environmental legislation can save lives and funds, study says
Voluntary adoption of EU environmental legislation in the water sector and especially improved drinking and wastewater standards could lead to a decrease in morbidity and mortality and to benefits ranging between 9 and 21 billion euros per year in the European Neighbourhood partner countries and the Russian Federation, the international study project on Socio-economic Benefits of Enhanced Environment Protection says.
The study was conducted in Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Syria, the occupied Palestinian territory, Tunisia and elsewhere. To see the results follow the link here.
The results, which were presented by the European Commission, also highlighted that reduced air pollution, due to enhanced environmental protection, could save between 50.000 and 150.000 lives per year in the region. In the field of waste management, adopting EU legislation would lead to an additional 64 million people being connected to proper municipal waste collection and to the creation of around 25.000 jobs in this sector alone. Major positive social and economic benefits would also result from reinforced nature protection, sustainable forest management, reduced land degradation, increase use of renewable energy, and better adaptation to climate change.
The study intends to alert decision-makers and the society in general in the European Neighbourhood Region that strengthened environmental protection leads to significant social, health and economic benefits. It estimates the possible advantages resulting from voluntarily adopting parts of the EU environmental legislation, and proposes a methodology to quantify these benefits.
The East and South regional summary studies as well as a Benefits Assessment Manual are published on the website _URL_.

The wind can play a huge factor in where striped bass will be. Stripers are known for roaming a lot as the follow bait fish in open water. The wind can often help dictate where bait fish will be and the stripers will follow. If you fish for largemouth bass, you know that largemouths will often be found around cover and then they will go out and search for a meal here and there. Striped bass are completely different. They are often roaming around in open water and they usually try to stay near schools of bait fish so they can find a quick meal once they get hungry.


Paternity suit runs into double trouble
It is a paternity suit that not even DNA testing can solve. A five-year-old boy may never know his father's identity because his mother claims she had sex with identical twins at the time he was conceived.
Lawyers admit that the most advanced genetic testing techniques are unlikely to prove which of the twin brothers - in their late twenties - fathered the child. The unprecedented case in Montreal, Canada, is a real-life rerun of a plot twist in Zadie Smith's 2000 novel White Teeth, in which the character Irie Jones has sex with the Iqbal twins on the same day and becomes pregnant.
Whereas siblings usually have enough genetic differences to be told apart, identical twins' DNA is almost exactly the same. Justice Paul Jolin, of the Quebec Superior Court, said of the case: 'There's a high risk that it is impossible to determine who the father is.'
One of the twins, who cannot be named for legal reasons, went to court last summer in the hope of forcing the mother to grant him access to the child. Although his name is not on the birth certificate, he claims he is the only father the boy has known, cared for him every other weekend, provided financial support and was even known to him as 'papa'.
But then the man's relationship with his girlfriend broke down and the visits halted. When he began legal proceedings to prove his paternity, the mother made her claim that she had been sleeping with his twin at around the same time.
The twins have said they knew they were both having sex with the woman, but argue that only one had sex during the period of conception. Both refused to undergo a DNA test: the complainant refused to pay the £335 charge while his brother, who has since married and fathered children, does not consider himself involved in the dispute.
Now, however, Judge Jolin has asked the complainant to take a DNA test by 1 December to ensure he can claim even possible paternity, while his brother may also be tested.
Scientists in Canada have said it is possible for identical twins to have slightly different DNA because of genetic mutations while the embryos are duplicating in the mother's womb at an early stage of pregnancy. But such differences are not detectable with the standard method of testing. Kristine Ashcraft of Genelex, which provides DNA testing, warned: 'There's no way to tell who the father is. They have the same DNA.'
If technology fails to end the mystery, the paternity question may ultimately rest with the judge. Myriam Pamphile, the twins' lawyer, said: 'The other twin is known by the rest of both families as the uncle of the child. The man claiming paternity said he has given financial support to the mother, even when she refused it. He saw the child every two weekends.
'In the best interests of the child, if he had known the first brother to be the father, I would think that the judge would give a decision where he still assumed that responsibility.'
Catherine Bamber, the mother's lawyer, said her client was not committed to either twin. 'The brothers are her friends and had sexual relations with her, but they were never together as a couple,' she said.

"Simply" is an adverb; it modifies verbs, adjectives, etc. "Simple" is an adjective; it modifies nouns. In normal speech, the signifier "simply" is used to mean "without excess" or "without complication" and is a way for the speaker to indicate that the speech or act referred to is without guile, without any complicated subtext: "This dessert is simply delicious" would mean that the speaker is giving the dessert his/her unqualified approval, without any other descriptors (sweet, tart, crispy, etc.). "Simple" as an adjective refers to the state or condition of an object or act: "It comes with simple directions." The word "simple" also is sometimes used to refer to a person's mental capacity, as a criticism: "Don't take him seriously; he is simple." In Shakespeare's Sonnet 138, the line, "Simply I credit her false speaking tongue:" means that the speaker is taking her utterance at face value, naively (some "translations use 'foolishly'), without assigning any duplicitous motives to his love.
"Simple" and "simply" are different parts of speech. They are related - kind of like members of a family - but can't quite do the same jobs.
"Simple" is an adjective. That means it describes a noun (a person, place, thing or idea). Here is an example phrase:
"A simple task" - The noun is task, and simple describes what kind of task.
Another meaning of "simple" is "ignorant". It is sometimes to describe someone with low IQ, usually in older books or papers. The word is not commonly used in this way anymore. An example phrase for this meaning of "simple" would be "a simple man" - a man who is ignorant.
"Simply" is an adverb. It modifies a verb (an action word) and describes how something is done. Other examples of adverbs are quickly, anxiously, happily and earnestly. Adverbs frequently end with -ly, which is a clue if you are trying to determine what part of speech a word is.
Here are some examples of the adverb simply used in sentences:
"She decorates her house simply." - "Decorates" is a verb, and "simply" describes how she decorates.
"He simply said no." - "Said" is a verb, and "simply" describes how he said no.
If you get stuck on the difference between similar words, you can check the dictionary. It will tell you what part of speech each word is, which should give you a clue as to how they are different and how to use them correctly.

Established in 1929, the Vale Oregon Irrigation District (VOID) is a quasi Municipal Corporation of the State of Oregon.
The system consists of two canals: the Vale Main Canal that services 30,416 acres and Bullycreek which services 4,577 acres of land. Water is diverted from the Malheur River into the Vale Main Canal system and more than 365 miles of canals and laterals deliver water to lands in the Harper, Vale, Willowcreek and Jamieson areas. The Vale project lands are located along the Malheur River and Willowcreek in east-central Oregon, surrounding the town of Vale. The project furnishes irrigation water to 34,993 acres of land. Features include Agency Valley Dam and Beulah Reservoir, Bullycreek Dam and Reservoir, Harper Diversion Dam, Vale Main Canal, and a distribution and drainage system. To supplement project needs, the Federal Government purchased one-half of the storage rights in the Warmsprings Reservoir built by the Warmsprings Irrigation District.
The project stores water in Warmsprings, Beulah, and Bullycreek reservoirs. The stored water in Warmsprings and Beulah reservoirs, together with natural stream flow, is diverted from the Malheur River by the Harper Diversion Dam to the Vale Main Canal. This water supplies lands on the west side of the Malheur River from west of Harper to Vale, and along Willowcreek from Vale to the vicinity of Jamieson. A siphon, 1.5 miles southwest of Little Valley, conveys water to the Little Valley Canal, on the east side of the Malheur River in the vicinity of Little Valley. Excess water from the Malheur River is diverted to Bullycreek Reservoir through the Vale Main Canal, and through the Bullycreek Feeder Canal that delivers water from the Main Canal. Water stored in Bullycreek Reservoir is delivered by two laterals, one beginning at the outlet works of the dam and the other at Bullycreek Diversion Dam about a mile downstream from the reservoir.
Construction of the Vale Project was authorized by the President on October 21, 1926. The Bullycreek Extension was authorized by Public Law 86-248, dated September 9, 1959. A contract between the Federal Government and the Vale Oregon Irrigation District was signed October 22, 1926. The contract provided for the purchase of one-half interest in Warmsprings Reservoir by the Bureau of Reclamation, construction of a diversion dam, main canal, branch canals, structures in connection therewith, and construction of necessary drainage works for the Warmspnings Irrigation District. Construction began on March 3, 1927.
The first units of the Vale project (Harper and Little Valley) were opened to irrigation in 1930. The last unit to receive irrigation water was the Willowcreek unit in 1938. On March 28, 1932, a supplemental contract was executed with the Vale Oregon Irrigation District that provided for construction of Agency Valley Dam on the North Fork of the Malheur River to add storage needed for an adequate water supply. The dam was completed in 1935. Almost 35,000 acres of sagebrush and rangeland have been transformed into productive farmland. Principal crops produced are grain, corn, hay, pasture, onions and sugar beets.
Facilities of the Bullycreek Extension, primarily Bullycreek Dam and Reservoir, Feeder Canal, Diversion Dam and laterals were constructed during 1962 — 1964. The three reservoirs are operated on a coordinated forecast basis for flood control. The Vale project is operated and maintained by the Vale Oregon Irrigation District.

"The present universities of Europe were, originally, the greater part of them, ecclesiastical corporations, instituted for the education of churchmen... What was taught in the greater part of those universities was suitable to the end of their institutions, either theology or something that was merely preparatory to theology." (A.

Finding DC operating points of nonlinear circuits is an important and difficult task. The Newton-Raphson method adopted in the SPICE-like simulators often fails to converge to a solution. To overcome this convergence problem, homotopy methods have been studied from various viewpoints. However, most previous studies are mainly focused on the bipolar transistor circuits and no paper presents the global convergence theorems of homotopy methods for MOS transistor circuits. Moreover, due to the improvements and advantages of MOS transistor technologies, extending the homotopy methods to MOS transistor circuits becomes more and more necessary and important. This paper proposes two nonlinear homotopy methods for MOS transistor circuits and proves the global convergence theorems for the proposed MOS nonlinear homotopy method II. Numerical examples show that both of the two proposed homotopy methods for MOS transistor circuits are more effective for finding DC operating points than the conventional MOS homotopy method and they are also capable of finding DC operating points for large-scale circuits.

Substrate kinetics screening method for mitigating low titer yields at large scale production
May 6-11, 2018
The use of chemically undefined peptones in the media is known to increase the variation of product yield beyond inherent lot-to-lot variation. Here we present a case study demonstrating risk mitigation for low titer yields seen at large scale production by minimizing lot-to-lot variation of a chemically undefined peptone used in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-based cell culture process. The peptone, which is categorized by copper concentration, is used in two different media during the production culture. The cell culture was initially screened at different peptone concentrations to find the optimum concentration where the resulting difference for titer and specific productivity were the greatest between the lots. Subsequent studies were performed using a 4x4 factorial design to screen, analyze, and recommend the lot usage designations and combinations to mitigate the risk of low titer yields. This presentation will discuss the results of this case study, and its implications to production media design.

"With only about 100 cao vit gibbons remaining in the world, the recent birth of this baby has extra significance," Fauna & Flora International said today.
"This species is only found in one location in the world, on the international border between Vietnam and China," the UK-based conservation charity said in a news release. "This birth is a sign of hope for the species' long term recovery."
The gibbon was born in Bang Liang Nature Reserve in Guangxi province, China.
Fauna & Flora International's conservationists in Vietnam and China are working with local government and communities to reduce the threats to the population of cao vit gibbons, the world's second rarest ape species.
Gibbons have the longest arms of any primate, relative to body size, according to the FFI species profile about the cao vit gibbon. "Their hand-over hand method of swinging from branch to branch, known as brachiation, enables them to move at breathtaking speed. With its spectacular locomotion and haunting, bird-like calls, the cao vit gibbon is a real show-stealer." Watch the FFI video below to see and hear the cao vit gibbon.
Although classified as "lesser apes," cao vit gibbons are highly intelligent and show complex social behavior, the species profile adds. Males and females proclaim and protect their family territory with "duets," which can be heard 2 kilometers [1.6 miles] away.
They have also evolved a highly specialized diet of flowers, fruit and young leaves.
"The narrowness of its ecological niche, combined with its ostentatious behavior has, however, helped to precipitate the cao vit gibbon's sharp decline. Though no longer a significant factor today, hunters posed a serious threat to the gibbons in the past, easily locating them in the forest.
"Such pressures have been compounded more recently by environmental changes to which the gibbon is unable to adapt; livestock overgrazing, firewood collection and encroaching agriculture are all contributing to the ongoing loss and fragmentation of its traditional habitat, jeopardizing the cao vit gibbon's survival."
Watch this FFI video to see and hear the cao vit gibbons in their habitat:
Along with the Hainan gibbon, the sister species from which it has recently split, the cao vit gibbon is one of the two most endangered apes in the cao vit gibbon world, FFI says.
The species formerly ranged across much of China and Vietnam. Today only an estimated 110 individuals remain, confined to the karst limestone forest along the China-Vietnam border.
The species was considered extinct until an FFI-led team discovered a small remnant sub-population in Vietnam's Cao Bang Province in 2002.
FFI has been working to conserve the species since that first group was found. "We have established community groups on both sides of the border to patrol and protect the gibbon's habitat. In addition, by working with local people, we are identifying and implementing simple and cost-effective measures to relieve pressure on the forest, such as providing villagers with fuel-efficient stoves," the charity says.
"In fact, the cao vit gibbon is acting as a valuable flagship species, helping to secure protected area designation for the biologically rich, but threatened, karst limestone forest on which its survival depends."

plot a chart of enrolment base on ownership
It looks like the data we need is all contained within Sheet1 of the Excel file, and the other sheets are empty. The data includes enrolment numbers by discipline, level (PGD, Masters, Ph.D.), and ownership (Federal, State, Private).
Next, we'll clean up the data in Sheet1 to focus on the ownership columns and then plot the enrolment numbers based on ownership.
Show enrollment by ownership in a bar chart
We've already created a bar chart showing postgraduate enrollment by ownership. It displays the number of enrollments for Federal, State, and Private ownership categories.
test the hypothesis that there is no significant differences in enrolment with programmes
To test the hypothesis that there is no significant difference in enrollment among different programs, we can perform an ANOVA test (Analysis of Variance). This test is suitable if we have three or more independent groups and want to compare their means to see if at least one of them is significantly different from the others.
First, we need to prepare our data for the ANOVA test. We'll extract enrollment numbers for each program type (PGD, Masters, Ph.D.) across all ownership types (Federal, State, Private). Then, we'll conduct the ANOVA test.
Hypothesis Test Summary
 - Test Used: ANOVA (Analysis of Variance)
 - Purpose: To test if there's a significant difference in enrollment among PGD, Masters, and Ph.D. programs.
 - Result: The ANOVA test resulted in a p-value of 0.185, which is greater than the common alpha level of 0.05.
 - Conclusion: With a p-value greater than 0.05, we fail to reject the null hypothesis. This suggests that there are no significant differences in enrollment among the PGD, Masters, and Ph.D. programs.

How to run SQL queries from Python scripts
You may want to access your tables outside of Databricks notebooks. Besides connecting BI tools via JDBC, you can also access tables by using Python scripts. You can connect to a Spark cluster via JDBC using PyHive and then run a script. You should have PyHive installed on the machine where you are running the Python script.
Python 2 is considered end-of-life. You should use Python 3 to run the script provided in this article. If you have both Python 2 and Python 3 running on your system, you should make sure your version of pip is linked to Python 3 before you proceed.
You can check your version of pip by running pip -V at the command prompt. This command returns the version of pip and the version of Python it is using.
Install PyHive and Thrift
Use pip to install PyHive and Thrift.
 pip install pyhive thrift
Run SQL script
This sample Python script sends the SQL query show tables to your cluster and then displays the result of the query.
Do the following before you run the script:
 1. Replace with your Databricks API token.
 2. Replace with the domain name of your Databricks deployment.
 3. Replace with the Workspace ID.
 4. Replace with a cluster ID.
To get the API token, see Generate a token. To determine the other values, see How to get Workspace, Cluster, Notebook, and Job Details.

Which Countries Have Banned GMO Crops? -->

Which Countries Have Banned GMO Crops?
These days in Southern Minnesota, it's hard to find any fields that aren't planted with genetically modified corn or soybeans. While GMO crops are quickly taking over the landscape in the United States and Canada, not all countries have embraced these questionable crops. Here's a list of countries (and U.S. counties) that have banned genetically modified crops in one way or another.
In the United States: Only the California counties of Mendocino, Trinity and Marin have successfully banned GM crops. Voters in other Calilfornia counties have tried to pass similar measures but failed.
Which Countries Have Banned GMO Crops - Monsanto has been removed and banned in Austria, Bulgaria, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Japan, Luxembourg, Madeira, New Zealand, Peru, South Australia, Russia, France, SwitzerlandIn Australia: Several Australian states had bans on GM crops but most of them have since lifted them. Only South Australia still has a ban on GM crops, though Tasmania has a moratorium on them until November of 2014.
In Japan: The Japanese people are staunchly opposed to genetically modified crops and no GM seeds are planted in the country. However, large quantities of canola are imported from Canada (which is one of the world's largest producers of GM canola) and there is now GM canola growing wild around Japanese ports and roads to major food oil companies. Genetically modified canola such as Monsanto's Roundup Ready canola have been found growing around 5 of the 6 ports that were tested for GM contamination.
In New Zealand: No GM foods are grown in the country.
In Germany: There is a ban on the cultivation or sale of GMO maize.
In Ireland: All GM crops were banned for cultivation in 2009, and there is a voluntary labeling system for foods containing GM foods to be identified as such.
In Austria, Hungary, Greece, Bulgaria and Luxembourg: There are bans on the cultivation and sale of GMOs.
In France: Monsanto's MON810 GM corn had been approved but its cultivation was forbidden in 2008. There is widespread public mistrust of GMOsthat has been successful in keeping GM crops out of the country.
In Madeira: This small autonomous Portugese island requested a country-wide ban on genetically modified crops last year and was permitted to do so by the EU.
In Switzerland: The country banned all GM crops, animals, and plants on its fields and farms in a public referendum in 2005, but the initial ban was for only five years. The ban has since been extended through 2013.
In Thailand: The country has zigzagged in its support and opposition of GM crops. The country had widespread trials of GM papayas from Hawaii but reversed its plans when the seeds got wild and began contaminating nearby crops. Several countries such as Japan moved to restrict the importation of Thailand's papayas as a result, not wanting to import any GM foods. Thailand is currently trying to embrace both sides -- producing organic foods for some countries at a high price while moving towards embracing more and more GM crops. The country has also tried declaring some areas GMO-free zones in order to encourage other countries to trust their foods.
What countries have embraced GM crops?
 - The U.S. now grows mostly GM varieties of corn, canola and soy. Hawaii now grows GM papayas. Approvals have also been given for GM alfalfa, zucchinis, beet sugar and tomato varieties, though not all are currently being grown. A recent attempt to approve GM salmon was defeated.
 - China is one of the largest producers of GM crops.
 - Germany, Sweden and the Czech Republic are approved for growing GM potatoes.
 - Finland's government and population is receptive to GM foods. None are currently grown in the country, however, because no approved GM crops are suitable for the country's growing conditions.
 - The Zambian government has launched a campaign to get the public to support GM technology.
 - Spain currently grows GMO maize (about 20% of the country's maize is GM).
 - The Czech Republic, Slovakia, Portugal, Romania and Poland all grow some GMO maize.
 - The Phillipines grow GM crops.
 - The European Union (EU) has approved the cultivation of many GM crops (including potatoes and maize) but individual countries are able to opt out from growing them. However, most EU countries are not permitted to reject the sale of GM foods.
 - South Africa is growing an increasing number of GM crops.
 - Britain officially supports GM crops and has trials of GMOs like potatoes planted. However, there is widespread public distrust of the crops and Prince Charles has been a vocal opponent of GMOs.
 - South America has widespread planting of GM crops.
 - As mentioned above, Thailand is alternately embracing and rejecting GM crops.
 - India also has widespread GM cotton use. Also mentioned above, the widespread planting of Monsanto's GM cotton has led to tragedy throughout India. The Indian government even banned conventional seeds from many government seed banks in an attempt to please Monsanto (in return, the country was given International Monetary Fund loans to help its economy) and slow the nation's poverty rates. An estimated 1,000 farmers commit suicide each month in the country as a result of the crop failure and debt caused by planting the GM seeds. Farmers were convinced to spend what was often 1,000 times the cost of conventional seed on the "magic seeds" after listening to Monsanto's promises of increased yields and resistence to pests. Despite the promises, the crops were often destroyed by bollworms. In addition, the farmers weren't warned that the crops would require twice as much water as conventional cotton, leading to many crops drying up and dying. The "terminator" seeds also must be purchased again every year. For farmers used to saving seed from year to year, this was often a final financial blow that led to insurmountable debt.
The variation in each country's laws and views regarding GMOs has led to complications when it comes to exporting foods. For example, Thailand has been working to reassure other countries about the safety of its food but recently had its canned tuna rejected by Greece and the Netherlands after testing showed GM ingredients. The tuna was packed in soybean oil imported by the United States, where most soy is genetically modified.
Some Americans are now looking for foods like canola oil and soy products that are not grown in the United States, thinking that it's a way to avoid GM foods. This is obviously not a good idea. It's important not to assume that just because a food was not produced in the United States, it's not genetically modified.
Until consumers have the right to labeling informing us of which foods contain GM ingredients, it's important to be aware of which countries are now growing GM foods and which foods are produced.

This sentence is from Death Note, specifically on how to use it.
This sentence is written in-universe using English. It states, "This note will not take effect unless the writer has the person's face in their mind when writing his/her (the victim's) name."
I understand that 書く is modifying 人物, which would lead me to believe that 人物 is in reference to the person writing.
However, 人物 being the owner of 顔 would imply that 人物 is the person whose name is being written.
What is going on, grammatically speaking? Is this sentence ambiguous to native speakers? Would it be any more or less ambiguous without the story context of Death Note?
Grammatically, this is an inherent ambiguity of Japanese relative clauses. A Japanese relative clause works by changing the word order and dropping a case particle like が, を or に, and therefore it may result in an ambiguous phrase. This typically happens when both the subject and the object are humans.
人物書く。 (Someone) write the (name of the) person.
書く人物 the person ((whose name) someone) writes / the person whose name is written
(人物 is the object of 書く)
人物書く。 A person writes (something).
書く人物 the person who writes (something) / the writer
(人物 is the subject of 書く)
For example, あげた人 can refer to either a giver or a receiver depending on the context. From AがBをCに紹介する ("A introduces B to C"), you can construct 紹介する人, which can be interpreted either as "someone who introduces B to C" (=A), "someone who A introduces to C" (=B), or "someone who A introduces B to" (=C).

 | model: Model,
 | trainer: Trainer,
 | evaluation_data_loader: DataLoader = None,
 | evaluate_on_test: bool = False,
 | batch_weight_key: str = ""
 | ) -> None
This class exists so that we can easily read a configuration file with the allennlp train command. The basic logic is that we call train_loop = TrainModel.from_params(params_from_config_file), then train_loop.run(). This class performs very little logic, pushing most of it to the Trainer that has a train() method. The point here is to construct all of the dependencies for the Trainer in a way that we can do it using from_params(), while having all of those dependencies transparently documented and not hidden in calls to params.pop(). If you are writing your own training loop, you almost certainly should not use this class, but you might look at the code for this class to see what we do, to make writing your training loop easier.
In particular, if you are tempted to call the __init__ method of this class, you are probably doing something unnecessary. Literally all we do after __init__ is call trainer.train(). You can do that yourself, if you've constructed a Trainer already. What this class gives you is a way to construct the Trainer by means of a config file. The actual constructor that we use with from_params in this class is from_partial_objects. See that method for a description of all of the allowed top-level keys in a configuration file used with allennlp train.
default_implementation#
class TrainModel(Registrable):
 | ...
 | default_implementation = "default"
The default implementation is registered as 'default'.

class TrainModel(Registrable):
 | ...
 | def run(self) -> Dict[str, Any]
finish#
class TrainModel(Registrable):
 | ...
 | def finish(self, metrics: Dict[str, Any])
from_partial_objects#
class TrainModel(Registrable):
 | ...
 | @classmethod
 | def from_partial_objects(
 | cls,
 | serialization_dir: str,
 | local_rank: int,
 | dataset_reader: DatasetReader,
 | train_data_path: str,
 | model: Lazy[Model],
 | data_loader: Lazy[DataLoader],
 | trainer: Lazy[Trainer],
 | vocabulary: Lazy[Vocabulary] = None,
 | datasets_for_vocab_creation: List[str] = None,
 | validation_dataset_reader: DatasetReader = None,
 | validation_data_path: str = None,
 | validation_data_loader: Lazy[DataLoader] = None,
 | test_data_path: str = None,
 | evaluate_on_test: bool = False,
 | batch_weight_key: str = ""
 | ) -> "TrainModel"
This method is intended for use with our FromParams logic, to construct a TrainModel object from a config file passed to the allennlp train command. The arguments to this method are the allowed top-level keys in a configuration file (except for the first three, which are obtained separately).
You could use this outside of our FromParams logic if you really want to, but there might be easier ways to accomplish your goal than instantiating Lazy objects. If you are writing your own training loop, we recommend that you look at the implementation of this method for inspiration and possibly some utility functions you can call, but you very likely should not use this method directly.
The Lazy type annotations here are a mechanism for building dependencies to an object sequentially - the TrainModel object needs data, a model, and a trainer, but the model needs to see the data before it's constructed (to create a vocabulary) and the trainer needs the data and the model before it's constructed. Objects that have sequential dependencies like this are labeled as Lazy in their type annotations, and we pass the missing dependencies when we call their construct() method, which you can see in the code below.
Parameters
 - serialization_dir : str
 The directory where logs and model archives will be saved.

Dynamic Field Interaction With Front End Modules¶
Knowing about how front end modules interact with dynamic fields is not strictly necessary to extend dynamic fields for the ticket or article objects, since all the screens that could use the dynamic fields are already prepared. But in case of custom developments or to extend the dynamic fields to other objects is very useful to know how to access dynamic fields framework from a front end module.
The following picture shows a simple example of how the dynamic fields interact with other OTRS framework parts.
The first step is that the front end module reads the configured dynamic fields. For example
AgentTicketNote should read
Ticket::Frontend::AgentTicketNote###DynamicField setting. This setting can be used as the filter parameter for
DynamicField core module function
DynamicFieldListGet(). The screen can store the results of this function to have the list of the dynamic fields activated for this particular screen.
Next, the screen should try to get the values from the web request. It can use the back end object function
EditFieldValueGet() for this purpose, and can use this values to trigger ACLs. The back end object will use each driver to perform the specific actions for all functions.
To continue, the screen should get the HTML for each field to display it. The back end object function
EditFieldRender() can be used to perform this action and the ACLs restriction as well as the values from
the web request can be passed to this function in order to get better results. In case of a submit the screen could also use the back end object function
EditFieldValueValidate() to check the mandatory fields.
Other screens could use
DisplayFieldRender() instead of
EditFieldRender() if the screen only shows the field value, and in such case no value validation is needed.
To store the value of the dynamic field is necessary to get the object ID. For this example if the dynamic field is linked to a ticket object, the screen should already have the
TicketID, otherwise if the field is linked to an article object in order to set the value of the field is necessary to create the article first.
ValueSet() from the back end object can be used to set the dynamic field value.
In summary the front end modules does not need to know how each dynamic field works internally to get or set their values or to display them. It just needs to call the back end object module and use the fields in a generic way.

Why Being a Hostess Is So Important
By Sandra Garson
Facing the Fear of Death. We've come to the coldest, darkest days of the year, which means holiday time, and there's a reason for its peculiar tsunami of food, drink and partying. It's the same reason meetings and seminars any time of year inevitably set out snacks and water in a "hospitality room." Hospitality —a Latin word that means "to meet the needs of guests"-- is as old as humankind, likely the reason we are still here because the primary survival need of any guest, any body, is food and water. We may know where the closest supermarket is, but our nomadic, hunter/gather ancestors could not be certain about their next meal, especially far from familiar tents. Survival totally depended on kindness in an encounter with strangers, and the IOUs that kindness created. To not give someone food, salt and water was tantamount to murder, which is why hospitality became the basis of morality. It's written into the precepts of all religions, its goodness being as close to godliness as we can get. Here are everyday examples.
Sandra Garson is the author of Veggiyana, the Dharma of Cooking and How to Fix a Leek and Other Food From Your Farmers' Market. As a longtime student of Tibetan Buddhism and well-known cook for Dharma centers from Maine to Mongolia, she became the first food historian to explore the Buddha's influence on how the world now eats. This led to exploration of more religious beliefs about food.

Can Guinea Pigs Eat Peaches? Benefits And Risks
The simple answer to the question, can guinea pigs eat peaches, is yes. Your lovely little furry friends can most definitely enjoy these peaches.
However, guinea pigs cannot have many peaches at once, so this is definitely a snack; you can treat them occasionally as a reward. But as long as you remember not to feed them peaches that frequently, your little pet guinea pigs will be perfectly safe enjoying this delicious fruit.
Always take note that our fuzzy and furry little guinea pigs are highly sensitive, and you can only feed them a limited amount of some selected fruits and vegetables. Although peaches cannot be a daily meal for your pets, you can benefit from feeding them this fruit because of its many health benefits.
Let's delve further!
Health Benefits Of Feeding Pet Guinea Pigs Peaches
After answering the question, can guinea pigs eat peaches? Here are some of the health benefits of feeding them such a fruit:
 - High levels of antioxidants
Your little pet guinea pigs can surely benefit from eating peaches because of their high levels of antioxidants, making them incredibly healthy for your furry guinea pigs because they can help prevent various diseases and somehow slow their aging process.
 - Helps prevent some types of cancers for guinea pigs
Caffeic acid and carotenoids are just some of the antioxidants found in peaches. These two antioxidants are capable of anticancer protection and effectiveness, according to recent studies.
 - Strong guinea pig immune system
Large amounts of vitamin A are present in peaches. Vitamin A is good for helping your guinea pig's immune system be strong and healthy.
Nutritional facts of peaches
Peaches are sweet and juicy fruits. They are safe for your cavies to eat and even has health benefits. It's low in fat and calcium, rich in Vitamin C and various antioxidants. But, peaches also contain a lot of glucose and has high levels of acidity.
So, feed your guinea pigs peaches sparingly. Have them as a treat rather than a part of their diet. Once a week, with twice being the limit, should do. The standard serving size is one slice. However, this only applies to matured guinea pigs. It's not recommended for baby guinea pigs to consume it.
Remember not to feed your little friend peaches the very day that you offered other sugary treats. If your guinea pig loves peaches, white peaches are a better option. They are sweeter but comparatively have lower acid levels. Still, restrictions should be observed even if you can feed them a slightly larger slice.
Although it's safe to eat the skin, rinse the peaches properly. There may be remnants of chemicals or bacteria left. Additionally, never feed them dried peaches or canned ones. A guinea pigs' digestive system cannot consume dried fruit. Canned peaches are overly sweet, especially with the syrup and preservatives.
In a serving of 100g, there is:
 - Calories: 39
 - Total fat: 0.3 g
 - Potassium: 190 mg
 - Dietary fiber: 1.5 g
 - Sugar: 8 g
 - Protein: 0.9 g
 - Vitamin A: 6%
 - Vitamin C: 11%
 - Calcium: 0%
 - Iron: 1%
 - Magnesium 2%
Risks To Consider
As sweet and delectable peaches are, consuming it comes with some risks. It has high glucose content that can cause diarrhea and obesity.
Obesity in guinea pigs can cause various health issues and can imminently lead to their death. Due to the unique digestive system of guinea pigs, they struggle to break down sugar. Unable to break it down, they suffer through constipation and diarrhea.
Aside from high sugar levels, peaches have high acidity. The high acidity levels can burn their lips or throat. And even develop sore lips. Additionally, there is potential for fungal infections.
In all fruits, there is always trouble with pesticides. While not considered a vital risk, remnant pesticides left on the peach skin can upset their digestive system. You can be through when washing, or if you don't feel safe, merely peel off the skin.
You don't want your pet to end up like my friend's since after she overfed her guinea pigs with peaches, lots of health issues emerged. Followed with check-up fees.
Are Peaches For Guinea Pigs?
Peaches are nectarines with many benefits and may have a few issues. But don't worry, we are here to give you some tips and reminders. Here is some additional information that can be of help in certain situations. Just keep reading!
How many peaches can you feed your pet guinea pigs?
Your guinea pigs are most definitely allowed to eat peaches. However, you can only feed them a small serving size of peaches with a maximum frequency of 2 times a week. My ginger really enjoys nibbling on these yummy treats!
Peaches are fruits that contain very high amounts of sugar, and your little pet guinea pigs are highly sensitive to sugar. Guinea pigs can also eat the peach's skin, as long as you have washed the peach properly so that traces of pesticides will not be present on the skin.
Are our peaches and nectarines good for guinea pigs?
Can guinea pigs eat peaches and nectarines? Your cute little pet guinea pigs can eat peaches and nectarines. However, a nectarine is a fruit that has a pit that you should remove before feeding it to your guinea pigs.
Nectarines are very delicious fruits, but they are sweet and sugary. Because of their sweetness and high sugar content, they are not very good for your guinea pigs to eat daily because guinea pigs are highly sensitive to sugar. So remember to consider peaches and nectarines as treats that you can feed them occasionally but not frequently.
How much portion size should I feed my guinea pigs? How often?
Your guinea pig may like other kinds of food, and a number of them may be high in sugar and water content, just like peaches. Their diet must not contain an excessive amount of these components, so you should regulate their sugar and water intake.
Peaches should only be fed once or twice a week, not in succession. The portion size should be comprised of a few slices, at most. Keep in mind that nectarines are considered snacks and not consumed regularly. Remember our golden rule: serve in moderation. I always keep this in mind to avoid overfeeding ginger.
Can nectarine skin be given to guinea pigs?
Peach skin has quite an appealing taste to guinea pigs. Yes, it is edible and, therefore, available for consumption. Also, remind yourself to rinse it thoroughly and make sure it's clean. You can also consider taking the peel off if you're still having second thoughts.
How to give your guinea pig peaches for the first time?
It is important to remember that guinea pigs are quite like humans. They need enough time to get used to a new feeling. When feeding them a new kind of food, give it in small portions; to make sure their diet doesn't change abruptly and cause imbalance.
Pay extra attention to their reactions, and this will determine whether you will include the fruit in their diet. A positive reaction can give you a signal. In contrast, an adverse reaction should make you remove the fruit from the diet.
Even if peaches are very beneficial, it is crucial to put your pet's safety first. There are thousands of fruits available for consumption other than peaches. If the pigs like it, you can continue the diet by gradually increasing the portion size.
So, can guinea pigs eat peaches? We wholeheartedly say yes! Aside from the numerous health benefits peaches can offer your beloved pet, the sweet taste and juicy texture will surely excite your pig and make it appreciate you even more!
Keep in mind to do everything in moderation. Give average-sized portions and clean the fruits thoroughly before feeding it. If you keep the instructions and tips we gave in this article; then you're good to go!

Class D amplifiers generally use a low-pass filter to attenuate the switching noise in the output waveform while passing the audio signal to the loudspeaker, but many engineers are not familiar with the functions performed by the various components in a Class-D amplifier filter or how to calculate the proper values. This article explains the purpose of the filter components and how to calculate their values.
The heart of a Class-D amplifier filter is a L-C low-pass filter. The corner frequency of the filter is chosen so that the filter will have minimal effect on the desired output frequency range while attenuating the switching noise as much as possible.
Figure 1: A low pass filter for a Class-D amplifier
The optimum value for the filter inductor is
L = RL/2πfC
where fC is the desired corner frequency of the filter and RL is the load (speaker) resistance. Note that the inductor value is dependent on both the desired corner frequency and the speaker impedance so the inductor value will changes if the speaker impedance changes.
Practical designs require the use of standard component values so small adjustments usually have to be made to the ideal inductor and capacitor values. Rather than calculating the inductor and capacitor values independently and then adjusting their values, it's better to calculate the inductor value, select the closest standard inductance value, and then calculate the required capacitance using the selected inductor.
C = 1/((2πfC)2 • L)
The quality factor (Q) of a filter is the ratio of the center frequency to the filter bandwidth.
Q = RL√(C/2L)
A high Q produces an underdamped curve and a low Q produces an overdamped curve. The Q of the filter should be in the range 0.6 > Q > 0.8 to avoid underdamped or overdamped behavior. If you use the equations above the filter should have a Q of about 0.7, which provides good performance and allows for impedance variation in the speakers. Note that the Q of the filter will change if the speaker impedance is changed without adjusting the filter component values, which can result in an underdamped or overdamped response.
Not only is it important to choose the correct L-C filter values, it is also important to choose the correct types of components for the class-D amplifier in order to avoid losses and minimize harmonic distortion.
The DC current rating of filter inductors must be greater than or equal to the maximum current that it will see. The change in inductance versus load current should not be more than 10%. The core material can affect the amplifier's harmonic distortion and should have very low hysteresis losses.
The capacitor should be a multilayer polyester, polypropylene or polycarbonate film capacitor. Avoid using ceramic capacitors in the low-pass filter. Ceramic capacitors experience large changes in capacitance as the voltage across them changes, which can result in distortion.


Lauge Hansen classification of ankle fractures
Lauge-Hansen classification of ankle fractures is based on the mechanism of trauma. It describes position of the foot (supination or pronation) and the direction of the applied force (abduction, adduction, external rotation) at the time of the injury. Therefore, it uses two word description of its types. The five main groups can be subdivided into stages according to the degree of severity.
Type Abbrev. Weber equivalent
Supination-Adduction SA Weber A
Supination-Eversion (External Rotation) SE (SER) Weber B
Pronation-Abduction PA Weber C
Pronation-Eversion (External Rotation) PE (PER) Weber C
Pronation-Dorsiflexion PD Weber C

Chief of General Staff of Russian Army notes secure communications system created at Kazan University
GERAKL (Hercules) system was shown to Valery Gerasimov at an expo at Kazan Higher Tank Command College.
GERAKL, which stands for "generation and distribution of encryption keys", is a highly secure encrypted communications system. It was designed and constructed by employees of the AstroChallenge Priority Research Unit based at KFU. Head of the Unit, Oleg Sherstyukov, explained how the system can benefit users to General of the Army, Deputy Minister of Defence, and Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov during a meeting on Friday, 20th April.
Professor Sherstyukov said that the system is based on the unpredictability of distribution of radio signals in complex environments. Encryption keys are created through calculations of physical parameters. Deputy Minister Gerasimov and guests of the expo asked some questions and were visibly interested in the equipment.

I want to implement something like a WCF OData provider but using NetTcpBinding instead of WebHttpBinding / REST. I want the client to be able to write linq queries that are transparently serialized and sent to the server (or potentially, multiple servers, to consolidate distributed database instances).
One way to do this is to implement a custom IQueryable provider. You could pass the query expression over the wire in (at least) two ways:
1) Serialize the expression to xml, send it, and deserialize it on the server
2) Pass what is more-or-less the precursor to raw SQL to the server in the form of DataContracts
1 is difficult and simply alot of work, and 2 obviously could pose security risks (sql injection). Say for instance a 'Where' expression was encapsulated and passed to the server like so,
[DataContract]
public class WhereFilter
{
 [DataMember]
 public string Property { get; set; }
 [DataMember]
 public string Operation { get; set; }
 [DataMember]
 public string Value { get; set; }
}
Where the above ultimately represents the part of an SQL query that states 'Where [SomeColumn] = 'SomeValue'.
My question is whether the WCF client-server connection could be made secure enough to warrant such an approach without presenting too much of a security risk? Or alternatively if there are any other ways of implementing an OData-like provider over NetTcpBinding i'd be interested.

I'd begin by trying the Expression Tree Serialization project. It aims to allow serialization of expressions, but I haven't used it to comment on how well it works.
Failing that, then you could construct queries using a DataContract. There are risks but you can always exclude unwanted operations (e.g. UPDATE or DELETE the UserRole table) through database permissions. Your WCF service should connect to the database with a dedicated account, and that account should only have permissions to do what it needs (no CREATE or DROP, only SELECT from relevant tables, etc).
And of course you can also secure your WCF connection to stop unwanted connections (see WCF Security Overview). One option is to require certificate authentication - only those users with the relevant certificate will be able to use the service.

The Mewlips

The Mewlips by Richard Svensson.
The Mewlips is a nonsensical but eerie hobbit poem, appearing in the work The Adventures of Tom Bombadil by J.R.R. Tolkien. It concerns the Mewlips, an imaginary race of evil creatures that feed on passers by, collecting their bones in a sack. The poem describes the long and lonely road needed to reach the Mewlips, travelling beyond the Merlock Mountains, and through the marsh of Tode and the wood of "hanging trees and Gallows-Weed". None of these places appear on any of the maps.
The Poem
The Shadows where the Mewlips dwell
Are dark and wet as ink,
And slow and softly rings their bell,
As in the slime you sink.
You sink into the slime, who dare
To knock upon their door,
While down the grinning gargoyles stare
And noisome waters pour.
Beside the rotting river-strand
The drooping willows weep,
And gloomily the gorcrows stand
Croaking in their sleep.
Over the Merlock Mountains a long and weary way,
In a mouldy valley where the trees are grey,
By a dark pool's borders without wind or tide,
Moonless and sunless, the Mewlips hide.
The cellars where the Mewlips sit
Are deep and dank and cold
With single sickly candle lit;
And there they count their gold.
Their walls are wet, their ceilings drip;
Their feet upon the floor
Go softly with a squish-flap-flip,
As they sidle to the door.
They peep out slyly; through a crack
Their feeling fingers creep,
And when they've finished, in a sack
Your bones they take to keep.
Beyond the Merlock Mountains, a long and lonely road,
Through the spider-shadows and the marsh of Tode,
And through the wood of hanging trees and gallows-weed,
You go to find the Mewlips - and the Mewlips feed.

The instruction to "cut in fat" is a common instruction in baking recipes. The process of cutting in fat is very simple and a necessary skill for beautiful flaky and tender baked goods such as biscuits, scones, pie and pastry crusts.
In the Ask BB Series, I answer reader questions regarding baking science, techniques, and troubleshooting. If you have a question you would like addressed in depth in the series, email the question to _EMAIL_ with the subject of "Ask BB."
"What does it mean when a recipe says to 'cut in the fat' and what is the purpose of this step? "
I have been obsessed with baking for almost 10 years now, and because I bake so darn frequently I often forget that many people who are a bit newer to baking recipes may not understand instructions such as "cut in the fat." This instruction assumes you understand what the action of "cutting in fat" actually means. And I know as well as anyone that when you are new to this world of baking, that instruction isn't quite so self-explanatory. So let's talk about what cutting in fat means and what the purpose of this is in baking.
What Does Cutting in Fat Mean?
When a baking instruction states to "cut the fat into the dry ingredients" it assumes that you know a few things. Cutting in the fat in a baking recipe is the process of working fat (typically butter, lard, or shortening) into the dry ingredients until it is starting to coat the flour and the pieces of fat are very small and so the fat is evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients before the liquid is added to the recipe.
What is the Purpose of Cutting in Fat?
Have you ever wondered how shortening got it's name? Well believe it or not, shortening got it's name precisely because of what it does to flour when it is worked through before liquid is added. The process of cutting fat into the flour serves the purpose of shortening the protein strands in the flour. When liquid is introduced to flour, those protein strands begin developing into what we all lovingly know as gluten. This cutting process helps to shorten the protein strands and reduce the gluten development once the liquid is added. Therefore, the main purpose of cutting fat into the flour is to shorten the protein strands so that you can have a more tender and flaky baked good. This is also why professional bakers often refer to fat in general as shortening, and not just the product that is called shortening.
When Do You Cut in Fat?
Recipes that call for the step of cutting fat into the flour are recipes where the desired end result is a product that is incredibly tender and flaky. The most common times you will cut fat into a flour in a baking recipe is with pie crust and pastry crusts, biscuits, and scones.
How Do You Cut in Fat?
The process of cutting in fat is actually extremely simple, especially once you know what you are looking for. Typically, when a recipe calls for fat to be cut into the flour it will also call for the fat the be cold. Not always, but most of the time. If the fat you are using is butter, you will want to start by cutting it into small pieces. This will help you to work it into the flour more easily and evenly. If the fat you are using is lard or shortening, then it is already very soft and there is no need to break it up before you start the cutting process.
There are several tools you can use to cut in fat. I personally use a pastry cutter, also known as a pastry blender, which is just a tool with thin metal wires attached to the handle. To use this tool, you press down on the fat with the wires as you move around in the bowl. If you do not have a pastry cutter, then I find the next best tool is a fork and the technique is virtually the same. Another technique that I often see, but do not recommend, is to use your hands and break the fat up between your fingers. I personally do not suggest this method as you almost always want your fat to stay cold when you are cutting it into the flour and your hands will start to warm it. Some people also pulse the flour and fat in a food processor to cut it in. This can work well if you are careful about how much you pulse and do not let the fat get too warm. I also do not prefer this method because I don't think it is necessary to get your food processor dirty for this, and it is more difficult to control this way.
As you are cutting in the fat, remember that the more thoroughly the fat is incorporated into the flour the more you "shorten" the dough. Recipes where you are looking for a very tender, but homogeneous product, such as pie or pastry crust, you will cut the fat in until it resembles coarse cornmeal. However, for recipes where the desired product is more flaky, such as biscuits and scones, then you will cut the fat in a little less. You want some of the fat to remain in larger, pea-sized pieces.
Recipes to Practice Cutting in Fat
I hope this helps you understand the technique of cutting in a fat a little better and the reasons for it. If you have a question you would like addressed in depth in the series, email the question to _EMAIL_ with the subject of "Ask BB."

The application of the optimization technique known as dynamic programming to the design of "thinned" arrays with unequally-spaced elements is described. Dynamic programming is a systematic procedure for efficiently utilizing the capabilities of modern high-speed digital computing machines to find solutions to problems not computationally feasible by conventional means. In this paper it is applied to the design of linear arrays of 25 elements spaced within a 50 wavelength aperture. The results obtained compare favorably with similar results found by other design techniques. The effect on the sidelobes of varying the angular region of optimization and the spacing-quantization is also explored.

The total of your facial smears, or your makeup, is what makes you who you are. You might say that the genes from both of your parents are present in you. Alternately, you could use cosmetic makeup to emphasize those physical characteristics.
The makeup you apply to your face can be used to partially mask your true identity. Your makeup is every personality trait that, when combined, makes you a unique person. This type of cosmetics, commonly known as makeup, includes items like foundation, mascara, and lipstick. Since Queen Victoria deemed makeup disgusting and only suitable for theatrical players in the 1880s, this definition of makeup has been in use.
But there are those who are not good at all at doing their make up, even though they try they are just not good, like this lady below who you could see that her makeup is a mess and the guy with her couldn't help but to laugh.

Abstract: Background and Objective: Cocoa pod borer (CPB) is the main pest of cacao. It can reduce cacao production by up to 80% in Indonesia particularly in Central Sulawesi. The aim of this study was to (a) Estimate the effects of Beauveria bassiana (B. bassiana ) fungi, Dolichoderus thoracicus (D. thoracicus) cacao black ant and cacao pruning in controlling CPB at cacao plantation and (b) Evaluate the presence of B. bassiana in the soil environment after application. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted at one-hectare cacao farm covering 833 cacao trees with 3×4 m planting space. A completely randomized design was applied with five treatments: (1) B. bassiana fungi (BBF), (2) cacao black ant (CBA), (3) Pruning+B. bassiana (Pr+BBF), (4) Pruning+cacao black ant (Pr+CBA) and (5) Control (C). All treatments had 3 replicates. A106 mL1 colony forming units of B. bassiana was used as initial inoculum to be propagated in the corn media. B. bassiana inoculum of 4 kg was mixed with 250 L of water and was applied each month during the research period. A one-way ANOVA was used to analyze the data followed by HSD test (p<0.01) to compare the mean. It measured the CPB infestation level, cocoa bean damage and cacao yield. Results: The application of both biocontrol agents was effective in reducing CPB infestation and cocoa bean damage leading to increased cacao yield compared to the single treatment of either biological agent or pruning. Interestingly after application, the B. bassiana was successfully detected at the soil top layer as soil fungi. The highest cacao production (2.14 t ha1) was obtained when biological agents were combined with pruning. Conclusion: This study has shown the effectiveness of B. bassiana and D. thoracicus when combined with pruning in controlling CPB and increasing cocoa yields.
