Spartan lifestyle and values
Sparta was an ancient city in Greece from the 750 to around 3rd Century BCE. Spartan lifestyles and values have been glorified all around the world. Located in the ancient grounds of Laconia in Greece, Spartan people built an empire. There are many claims that life in the ancient city wasn't as good as we think it was. The constitution of Sparta believed in slaves and killing them in order to avoid uprisings. An average man spent their whole life training to be a warrior. Even at that time, the Spartan mentality was very different from the rest of the world. An antique idol of Sparta Warrior
However, there are many principles which made the civilization successful for centuries. The Spartan men and women lived a lifestyle that kept them safe from the world outside. Currently, some people want to be away from the technological world that has made us materialistic. Spartan lifestyle and mentality will instill values different from the modern world.
There are many things that we can learn from these warrior men which can keep us content. You might not be able to follow all their principles as it would be absurd in the modern world to even think of some, but you can adopt the good ones.
The 12 things you must do in order to live your life like a spartan soldier are given below:
1. Minimalism in Spartan Lifestyle:
Spartan lifestyle and values
To this date, you will find thousands of people trying to adopt a minimalistic lifestyle. People have become so spoilt with all the possession that it is almost impossible to survive without them. So, adopting this spartan mentality might be helpful in case you are one of them.
From a very young age, Spartan soldiers were taught to be happy with very little in life. Some might even consider it ruthless keeping a child from their basic needs. But as a Spartan soldier, this was the way of life. Today, people need thousands of things just to go by a single day. This was completely opposite as per the Spartan values. The only piece of clothing that the children could get was a robe.
2. Spartan Diet:
Today, you can order something online that will reach your doorsteps in a few minutes. However, in ancient Sparta, you had to basically earn everything that you ate. From the training period, men were trained to feed themselves. They used to eat whatever they could steal or earn. They had to work hard to be able to feed themselves.
Whatever they ate was healthier compared to the greasy food items that we find today. You have to feed your body protein and veggies that are essential to help you build muscles. However, you didn't feed yourself excessively because that would make you fat and slow.
3. Physique:
Spartan Mentality
The ancient Spartan soldiers had ripped bodies from all the training that they had to undergo. So, if your goal is to develop a Spartan lifestyle and value, you'd better start working on your physical training. The Spartans soldiers used to have lean muscles that enabled them to fight with others, physically and mentally.
4. Spartan Psyche and Mentality:
An average Spartan man had to train himself mentally as well as physically. Only being strong didn't help them all the time. The Spartan soldier lived a lifestyle that required constant fight for survival and had to value whatever they would earn. They would have to steal from people without being caught, otherwise, they would be punished. Such activities made them instinctive.
5. The goal or purpose of Spartan Education:
In modern society, the primary thing for the people mostly become feeding themselves and gather as much wealth as possible. But the Spartan lifestyle and values teach you to follow a goal completely different. If you want to live like a Spartan soldier, you must dedicate your life to serve a particular place or person. Having personal materialistic goals isn't the purpose of a Spartan soldier.
6. Waking Up:
Spartan Mentality
If you are someone who wakes up after 5 snoozes of your alarm, then we have something bad for y0u. Waking up early was one of the very essential lifestyles and values in the Spartan mentality. You will need to start using your time much more efficiently and most importantly, you must wake up early.
7. Training:
Spartan Mentality
Whether you want to grow up to become an army, fighter, engineer or even a doctor, you must follow some Spartans rules and regulations. in order to lead a spartan lifestyle, you will have to train yourself much harder.
The training period in the Spartan lifestyle goes until you die. So, you need to give yourself time to learn and grow. Whatever career you pursue, you need to be able to give it all you have got. Giving up will never be an option.
8. Working in a Team:
Spartan lifestyle and values
As a Spartan, you had to fight in a team. The Spartans army used to form a wall by sticking onto each other during the war that hardly let anyone else pass through. If someone gets injured during the war, the other Spartan soldier used to come and take their place, and they would continue to move forward. So, if you want to work like a Spartan, you will have to learn to work in a team as well.
9. Intellect in Spartan Lifestyle and Value:
Spartan lifestyle and values
As we mentioned above, being strong wasn't enough for the Spartan soldiers. Also, they needed to think smartly. So, sharpening your intellect is extremely important if you want to develop a spartan mentality.

10. Practise Abstinence:
Spartans never involved themselves in any activity that would not result in either making them stronger or smarter. So, they believed all the other activities such as sex and drinking would lead them to get distracted from their values and training. Therefore, if you align your lifestyle by the values the Spartan society, you might have to restrain yourself from such things.
11. Fight Your Way Out:
Spartan lifestyle and values
The Spartan mentality was to do anything they had to for survival. So, you need to be ready to fight through all the tough moments in life. If you didn't, you get killed. If you also want to live that way, you will have to learn to fight with toff situations in life.
12. Discipline in Spartan Lifestyle:
Finally, this has to be one of the most important values you need to live by in a Spartan lifestyle. From the young age of seven, the kids were taught to take care of themselves. They were all taught to fulfill their purpose of becoming ready for the battle.
At present, even if this might not be your goal, whatever goal you have in mind, you need to establish a strong discipline in yourself. Every principle mentioned above will not be possible without considering the disciplined lifestyle that the Spartan's value.

Linear Potentiometer Crackmeter
The Linear Potentiometer Crackmeter is a robust, high resolution and accuracy instrument designed to measure displacements across cracks and joints in buildings, bridges, dams, pipelines etc. It can measure in expansion and contraction.
The Linear Potentiometer Crackmeter is a highly accurate and robust instrument used to measure displacements across cracks and joints of a structure.
The potentiometer is installed across a crack or joint of the structure to be monitored, using either groutable or expanding shell anchors.
As the crack expands or contracts, the change in the distance between the anchors causes the connecting rod within the potentiometer body to move. The movement of the potentiometer changes the output which determines the movement of the crack with high resolution and accuracy.
- High resolution and accuracy
- Robust design
- Suitable for long-term monitoring
- Suitable for manual or remote monitoring
- Two versions available; Standard (IP67) and Submersible (IP68 to 1700 kPa)
- Accurate, repeatable readings
- Long working life
- Long term stability and reliability
- Connecting cable is strong, screened and flexible
The Linear Potentiometer Crackmeter is anchored to the structure to be monitored with groutable or expansion anchors.
The change in distance between the anchors caused by the crack opening or closing, will cause a connecting rod to move within the potentiometer body, changing the resistance of the potentiometer via a voltage divider.
By reading this change in voltage, the movement of the crack can be determined.
The Linear Potentiometer Crackmeter measures displacements across cracks and joints in buildings, bridges, dams, pipelines and similar structures. It can measure both expansion and contraction of cracks or joints.
Typical monitoring applications include:
- Brick and stone buildings
- Settlement, heave or foundation clay shrinkage
- Bridges and dams
- Construction joints
- Joints and bearing/support interaction
- Tunnels and lining cracks
- Structures susceptible to earthquake and landslide areas

Mi'kmaq language
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Region Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Gaspe Peninsula (Quebec), Newfoundland, northern Maine, Boston (Massachusetts)
Ethnicity Mi'kmaq people

The Mi'kmaq language (spelled and pronounced Micmac historically and now often Migmaw or Mikmaw in English, and Míkmaq, Míkmaw or Mìgmao in Mi'kmaq) is an Eastern Algonquian language spoken by nearly 11,000 Mi'kmaq in Canada and the United States out of a total ethnic Mi'kmaq population of roughly 20,000.[3][4] The word Mi'kmaq is a plural word meaning'my friends' (singular Míkm[5]); the adjectival form is Míkmaw.[6] The language's native name is Lnuismk, Míkmawísimk[7] or Míkmwei[5] (in some dialects).
The phonemic inventory of Mi'kmaq is shown below.

The obstruents (/p, t, k, kʷ, t͡ʃ, s, x, xʷ/) are voiceless initially or next to another obstruent, but allophonically voiced [b], [d], [ɡ], [ɡʷ], [d͡ʒ], [z], [ɣ], [ɣʷ] between sonorants (vowels or the voiced consonants /m, n, w, l, j/). Thus Mi'kmaq, phonemically /miːkmax/, is pronounced [miːɡmax].
Mi'kmaq distinguishes not only between long and short vowels, but between long and short consonants, symbolized orthographically in Listuguj by doubling the consonant. Beyond expanding in length, long consonants add a schwa when preceding other consonants. For instance, compare /en.mitk/, written in Listuguj as enmitg ("flow away") with /en.nə.mit/, written in Listuguj as ennmit ("stick into"); or, /tox.tʃu.pi.la.wek/, written in Listuguj as toqju'pilaweg ("hoist"), with /ge.si.gaw.wek/, written in Listuguj as gesigawweg ("loud").
Listuguj orthography occasionally begins words with consonant clusters, such as with gta'n ("ocean") or mgumi ("ice"). However, such clusters are pronounced over separate syllables, with a schwa preceding the cluster: for instance, gta'n is pronounced /ək.ta:n/ while mgumi is pronounced /əm.ku.mi/. On the other hand, word-final clusters, such as in asigetg ("investigate") are pronounced over a single syllable: compare the pronunciation of asigetg, /a.si.getk/, with mest'g ("taste"), /mes.tək/.
Mi'kmaq uses free word order, based on emphasis rather than a traditionally fixed order of subjects, objects and verbs[clarification needed]. For instance, the sentence "I saw a moose standing right there on the hill" could be stated "sapmi'k ala nemaqt'k na tett ti'am kaqamit" (I saw him/there/on the hill/right-there/a moose/he was standing) or "sapmi'k ala ti'am nemaqt'k na tett kaqamit" (I saw him/there/a moose/on the hill/right-there/he was standing); the latter sentence puts emphasis on the moose by placing ti'am (moose) earlier in the utterance. Further complicating matters is the fact that Mi'kmaq, as a polysynthetic language, has verbs which usually contain the sentence's subject and object: for instance, the aforementioned sapmi'k translates to "I saw him".
While it is thus difficult to classify Mi'kmaq under traditional word-order categories such as SVO or SOV, a more fixed aspect in the language comes in the morphology of its verbs. Certain areas of internal morphology of verbs in Mi'kmaq have regular placement: for instance, when the aspect of a verb is included, it appears as the first prefix, while the negative marker always appears directly after the verb root. An example for both of these instances can be seen in the Mi'kmaq verb kisipawnatqa'ti'w (kisi-paw-natq-a'ti-w), translated as "they cannot get out": the prefix kisi marks the verb as being in the completive aspect, whereas the negative marker, w, appears directly after the verb root a'ti ("the two move"). Unfortunately these solidly-placed elements of verbs are paired with markers that can appear throughout the word, depending again on emphasis; animacy in particular can appear fluidly throughout verbs. In short, while a few specific aspects of Mi'kmaq can be predicted, its syntax in general is largely free and dependent on context.
Writing system[edit]
Mi'kmaq-language stop sign in Elsipogtog First Nation
Mi'kmaq is written using a number of Latin alphabets based on ones devised by missionaries in the 19th century. Previously, the language was written in Mi'kmaq hieroglyphic writing, a script of partially native origin. The Francis-Smith orthography used here was developed in 1974, and adopted as the official orthography of the Míkmaq Nation in 1980. It is the most widely used orthography, used by Nova Scotian Mikmaq and by the Míkmaq Grand Council. It is quite similar to the "Lexicon" orthography, differing from it only in its use of the straight apostrophe'or acute accent ' instead of the colon : to mark vowel length. When the Francis-Smith orthography was first developed, the straight apostrophe (often called a "tick") was the designated symbol for vowel length, however due to software applications incorrectly auto-correcting the tick to a curly apostrophe, a secondary means of indicating vowel length was formally accepted: the acute accent. The barred-i ɨ is sometimes replaced by the more common circumflex-i î. In Listuguj orthography, an apostrophe marks long vowels, and the letter g is used instead of the letter k. The 19th-century Pacifique orthography omits w and y, using o and i for these. It also ignores vowel length. The 19th-century orthography of Silas Tertius Rand is also given in the table below; this orthography is more complex than the table suggests, particularly as far as vowel quantity and quality is concerned.

Mi'kmaq uses a decimal numeral system. Every multiple-digit number is formed by using one of the first nine numerals as a prefix or a preceding word, as seen in the number for ten, ne'wtisgaq, a combination of the prefix ne'wt - (derived from newt) and the root isga'q meaning ten (the pattern can be seen in tapuisga'q for 20, nesisga'q for 30, etc.) While 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 all use a single word containing a prefix, the tens between 60 and 90 use the numeral as a preceding word to a separate word meaning ten, te'sisga'q: for instance, 60 is written

For you to understand why do dogs bury bones, it's necessary to have a glimpse on the way in which wolves hunt in the wild.
Small preys including mice are chased, stalked, and pounced upon by single wolves working for themselves. These pounces trap the prey under the front feet. Then, it seized and bitten quickly after which it's gobbled down.
Bigger preys like rabbits are treated in the same manner. If preys of this size are hard, these might be shaken vigorously, yet typically some bites are all that's needed to subdue this. Medium-sized preys like small deer and sheep are killed through throat bites.
The burying process consists of digging holes with the front feet while clasping the meat in jaws. When the cavity is huge enough, the wolf opens its jaws and allows the meat drop into it. Then, they use their snout to push the soil back on top.
Once the hole is already covered, they make some pressing down movement with their snout and wander off. They will return the following day, digging up the meat with their front feet, then grab that using their jaws to eat.
Why Do Dogs Bury Bones?
When it comes to dogs, it's now clear to assume what conditions should be present to encourage them to bury food. First and foremost, there should be food surplus. Hungry dogs eat everything they could. Only if there's something left over that couldn't be eaten would be carried into the backyard and buried.
Commercial dog foods even in homes where dogs are overfed by their owners are impossible to hold and carry in the jaws while digging a hole. That is why dogs that are fed only with soft food in dog bowls won't have the chance to bury anything. However, if they're provided with big bones they do have something they could hide in the hole.
The main reason why bones are famous as the burying object is that though the dogs in question aren't overfed and don't have any food surplus, a big bone that's impossible to break up and eat, has about the essential quality of the food object that can't be eaten easily. It has a leftover quality that persuades even hungry dogs to bury bones.
Several pet dogs that are overfed with soft foods may be seen performing a strange remnant of burying foods. They know a dish of surplus food is great food, yet they're not hungry, so they attempt to just bury the whole food in a room.

Stop Your Dog From Burying Bones
If you don't like your dog to bury bones in your backyard, there are some options you can consider to stop them. One of these is training him properly and disciplining him that it's not good to bury bones. If you do not have more time to train your dog, you can always hire someone to do it for you.

Cities Near Cuyahoga Falls, OH
Local city information for Cuyahoga Falls, OH
is a city in Summit County, Ohio, United States. As of the 2000 census, the city population was 49,374. It is currently the second largest city in Summit County. It is a suburb of Akron and Cleveland and part of the Akron Metropolitan Statistical Area and the Cleveland-Akron-Elyria Combined Statistical Area. Actually older than Akron, the city was founded in 1812 by William Wetmore and was originally named Manchester. Cuyahoga Falls is named after the Cuyahoga River (which flows into Lake Erie) and the series of falls that run through the middle of the city.
Cuyahoga Falls is bordered by Akron to the south and the Cuyahoga Valley National Park to the northwest.
Cuyahoga Falls was formed in 1812 near the junction of what was then Northampton, Stow, Tallmadge, and Portage townships. The focus was the series of Cuyahoga River waterfalls that provided power for manufacturing.
In 1812 Kelsey and Wilcox built a dam on the Cuyahoga River at a place where a railroad bridge crossed it in 1876. They then built a flour mill, an oil mill, and a saw mill. This led to the construction of a number of houses. This area was known as the old village. Development moved downstream, though, when it was discovered that the power was better there. The old village was eventually destroyed in 1826 when a dam built by William Wetmore flooded the dam at the old village and its mills were torn down.
The earliest settler of Cuyahoga Falls included Joshua Stow and William Wetmore. In 1815 a saw-mill was operating near Gaylord's Grove, using power generated by a dam on the Cuyahoga River there.
The town was initially called Manchester but was renamed Cuyahoga Falls at the request of the Post Office since there were already several other Manchesters in Ohio.
The village proper was first laid out in 1826 by Judge Richardson.
The town was incorporated in 1836, occupying 240 rods out of Stow and Tallmadge townships. In 1853, seeing that the village and township of Cuyahoga Falls occupied the same territory, the village council disbanded and the community was only a township until 1868.
In 1841 the Summit County Board of Commissioners named Cuyahoga Falls county seat. The state legislature then intervened and put the location of the county seat up to a popular vote. Akron won and has been the county seat ever since. In spite of being named the county seat Cuyahoga Falls never really functioned as such.
In March 1851 the township of Cuyahoga Falls was created out of the village limits. They covered the same territory so the village council voted to adjourn sine die
, letting the village be run under township jurisdiction until June 3, 1868 when the municipal government returned.
In 1985 Cuyahoga Falls merged with Northampton Township, the first merger of a city and township in Ohio.
Cuyahoga Falls had been founded as an industrial city, taking advantage of the river power. By the 1970s, though, it had become a residential community. This changed, though, when Don Robart became mayor. He had been in favor of the merger with Northampton Township because of the additional land that could be used for development. Parts of that area have since been used for industrial development. Commercial development has also picked up, especially on the Howe Avenue area at the southern border of the city.
The city had one professional sports team, the Cuyahoga Falls Cougars, of the International Basketball League (2005-). They moved to Akron in 2006.
The Cathedral of Tomorrow
, founded by televangelist Rex Humbard in 1958, is located in Cuyahoga Falls. It is now the headquarters of televangelist Ernest Angley and was renamed Grace Cathedral.

ABSTRACT

Abstract—We investigate the use of biased sampling according to the density of the data set to speed up the operation of general data mining tasks, such as clustering and outlier detection in large multidimensional data sets. In density-biased sampling, the probability that a given point will be included in the sample depends on the local density of the data set. We propose a general technique for density-biased sampling that can factor in user requirements to sample for properties of interest and can be tuned for specific data mining tasks. This allows great flexibility and improved accuracy of the results over simple random sampling. We describe our approach in detail, we analytically evaluate it, and show how it can be optimized for approximate clustering and outlier detection. Finally, we present a thorough experimental evaluation of the proposed method, applying density-biased sampling on real and synthetic data sets, and employing clustering and outlier detection algorithms, thus highlighting the utility of our approach.

Analysis of effectiveness for a stirling machine regenerator
Jo, Gwan-Sik; Lee, Dae-Yeong; No, Seung-Tak;
 PDF(new window)
The effectiveness of the regenerator pertaining to Stirling cycle machines is studied by analyzing the heat transfer characteristics of the oscillating flow in a tube, and a new consistent definition of the regenerator effectiveness can be expressed by the ratio of the heat transfer in axial direction (Qaxial/) to that in transverse direction (Q/su w/), and its approximate form is obtained as a function of Nusselt number for practical utility. Since an approximate value of the ratio Qaxial//Qsub w/ can be expressed in terms of the time-averaged rather than transient temperatures, this expression is useful to estimate the heat transfer coefficient in the Stirling machine regenerator experimentally.

Which single factor do you think was most important in making the Spanish so successful during the contact period?
1 Answer | Add Yours
I would argue that the most important single factor helping the Spanish was the fact that they brought with them diseases to which the natives of the Americas had no immunity. This was not the only important factor, but I would argue that it was the most important.
The diseases that the Spanish brought over devastated the native populations. Since they could spread from native to native, they could travel from places where the Spanish actually were and kill people who had yet to set eyes on a Spaniard. This was tremendously beneficial to the Spaniards because it destabilized and severely weakened the societies that might have resisted them. For example, diseases that the Spanish brought killed large numbers of Incas, including their emperor. They had then engaged in a struggle over who would be the next emperor. Right after that struggle ended, the Spanish came to conquer the Incas. The fact that so many of them had died of disease and that they had then fought a civil war made it much easier for the Spaniards to win.

Using Code Map to understand C++ Android code
This tutorial shows how to use the CodeMap feature of Visual Studio to understand the structure of complex C++ code. We will show it based on the san-angeles demo built using vs-android, however it will also work for all other VisualGDB project types.
 1. Install VisualGDB 5.0 or later (ensure that "Android Edition" is checked in the installer). This will add support for debugging and Clang-based IntelliSense to vs-android projects.
 2. Ensure you can build and debug the san-angeles project by following this tutorial.
 3. Open the san-angeles project and go to the drawModels function in demo.c:01-drawmodels
 4. The first thing we will investigate using code map is that drawModels() function that appears to be called repeatedly is calling seedRandom() each time with the same value. That supposedly resets the state of the random number generator. Let's use the code map to understand what is affected by this. Right-click on seedRandom() and select "show on code map":02-map
 5. A new Code Map window will appear. Right-click on seedRandom in that window and select "show referenced data":03-data
 6. You will see that seedRandom accesses the sRandomSeed variable. Right-click on it and select "Show functions referencing this":04-randomseed
 7. Now you will see that sRandomSeed is also accessed by randomUInt():05-2calls
 8. Now we need to figure out the context in which both functions are called. Select both of them by holding the ctrl key, right-click and select "Show functions calling this": 06-callers
 9. Now you will see all functions in the project that call the two random number functions we found. However, this is not enough to see the big picture:07-4callers
 10. Repeat the previous step (selecting newly found functions) twice more until you see the functions called by the Java framework (starting with Java_):08-jnifuncsNow the big picture is clear: the random functions are mainly involved during app initialization and the only other place that calls them is the drawModels() function itself. Hence, resetting the random seed inside drawModels() does not affect the behavior of other functions.
 11. Now let's use Code Map to quickly find functions related to the GLObject struct. First of all, select any of the GLObject's fields and select "Show on Code Map":09-globject

Polymorphism In Labview
Table of Contents - Polymorphism In Labview
Polymorphism
All LABVIEW arithmetic functions are polymorphic. This means that the inputs to these functions can be different DATA STRUCTURES such as scalar values and arrays. By definition, polymorphism is said to be the ability of a numeric function to adjust to input data of different data structures.
For example, the Add function can be used in the following ways.
1. Scalar + Scalar = Scalar addition.
2. Scalar + Array = The scalar is added to each element of the array.
3. Array + Array = Each element of one array is added to the corresponding element of another array.

In the above Figure (a), two scalar values are added which results in a scalar output. In the above Figure (b), an array is added with a scalar value. The function adds the scalar value to each element of the array and returns the array output. In the above Figure (c), two arrays are added. The function adds each element of one array to the corresponding element of the other array and returns the array output. In the above Figure (d), two arrays of different sizes (i.e. number of factors) are added. The function adds corresponding features and returns the output array, with the size of the smaller input array. The first array consists of three elements and the second consists of four elements. First three elements of both arrays are added. The fourth element of the second array is not considered. Polymorphism does not perform matrix arithmetic when inputs are two-dimensional arrays (for example, two two-dimensional array inputs to a multiply function do element-by-element multiplication, not MATRIX multiplication).

Polymorphism For Numeric Functions
The arithmetic functions take numeric input data. With some exceptions noted in the function descriptions, the default output has the same numeric representation as the input or, if the inputs have different representations, the default output is the larger of the inputs. For example, if you add an 8-bit integer and a 16-bit integer, the default output is a 16-bit integer. If you configure the output of a Numeric function, the settings you specify override the default behavior.
[ Frequently Asked LabVIEW Interview Questions & Answers]
The arithmetic functions work on numbers, arrays of numbers, CLUSTERS of numbers, arrays of clusters of numbers, complex numbers, and so on. A formal and recursive definition of the allowable input type is as follows:
Numeric type = numeric scalar OR array [numeric type] OR cluster [numeric types]
The numeric scalars can be floating-point numbers, integers, or complex floating-point numbers. LABVIEW does not allow you to use arrays of arrays.
Arrays can have any number of dimensions of any size. Clusters can have any number of elements. The output type of functions is of the same numeric representation as the input type. For functions with one input, the functions operate on each element of the array or cluster.
For functions with two inputs, you can use the following input combinations:
 - Similar—Both inputs have the same structure, and the output has the same structure as the inputs.
 - One scalar—One input is a numeric scalar, the other is an array or cluster, and the output is an array or cluster.
 - Array of—One input is a numeric array, the other is the numeric type itself, and the output is an array.
[ Related Article: LabVIEW Tutorials]
For similar inputs, LabVIEW performs the function on the respective elements of the structures. For example, LabVIEW can add two arrays element by element. Both arrays must have the same dimensionality. You can add ARRAYS with differing numbers of elements; the output of such an addition has the same number of elements as the smallest input. Clusters must have the same number of elements, and the respective elements must be of the same type.
For operations involving a scalar and an array or cluster, LabVIEW performs the function on the scalar and the respective elements of the structure. For example, LabVIEW can subtract a number from all elements of an array, regardless of the dimensionality of the array.
For operations that involve a numeric type and an array of that type, LabVIEW performs the function on each array element. For example, a graph is an array of points, and a point is a cluster of two numeric types, x and y. To offset a graph by 5 units in the x direction and 8 units in the y direction, you can add a point, (5, 8), to the graph.
The following illustration shows the possible polymorphic combinations of the Add function.

Polymorphism For Boolean Functions
The logical functions accept Boolean input data, numeric input data, and error clusters. If the input is numeric, LabVIEW performs a bitwise operation. If the input is an integer, the output has the same representation. If the input is a floating-point number, LabVIEW rounds it to a 32-bit integer, and the output is a 32-bit integer. If the input is an error cluster, LabVIEW passes only the TRUE or FALSE value of the status parameter of the error cluster to the input terminal.
The logical functions work on arrays of numbers or Boolean values, clusters of numbers or Boolean values, arrays of clusters of numbers or Boolean values, and so on.
A formal and recursive definition of the allowable input type is as follows:
Logical type = Boolean scalar OR numeric scalar OR array [logical type] OR cluster [logical types]
except that complex numbers and arrays of arrays are not allowed.
Logical functions with two inputs can have the same input combinations as the arithmetic functions. However, the logical functions have the further restriction that the base operations can only be between two Boolean values or two numbers. For example, you cannot have an AND between a Boolean value and a number.
The following illustration shows some combinations of Boolean values for the AND function.

[Sca-cooks] Beehives from 900BC
gordonse at one.net
Wed Sep 5 05:33:06 PDT 2007
>JERUSALEM --Archaeologists digging in northern Israel have discovered evidence of a 3,000-year-old beekeeping industry, including remnants of ancient honeycombs, beeswax and what they believe are the oldest intact beehives ever found.
>The findings in the ruins of the city of Rehov this summer include 30 intact hives dating to around 900 B.C., archaeologist Amihai Mazar of Jerusalem's Hebrew University told The Associated Press.
>The beehives, made of straw and unbaked clay, have a hole at one end to allow the bees in and out and a lid on the other end to allow beekeepers access to the honeycombs inside. They were found in orderly rows, three high, in a room that could have accommodated around 100 hives, Mazar said.

I have created several large tables in Excel and MATLAB. Since it is very time-consuming to manually copy and paste these tables in LaTeX, I would like to include them as figures in LaTeX. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me with the following questions:
 1. Is it possible to include tables from MATLAB or Excel without having to manually copy and paste the cells in LaTeX?
 2. If I import a table as a figure into LaTeX, how can I change the caption from "Figure" to "Table" and have it listed in the "List of Tables" instead of "List of Figures"?
Thank you very much in advance for your time and help.

Part 2 is easier. If you include your table inside a table environment (\begin{table}\end{table}), it will appear in the \listoftables. Nothing will stop you from inserting a figure with \includegraphics inside the environment.
For Part 1, I usually print foreign information to PostScript and use \includegraphics from the graphicsx package. You may need to process the file in a drawing application to crop the boundaries.

Attila the Hun was the ruler of the Huns and leader of the Hunnic Empire from 434 to his death in 453. Though the details of his death are a little sketchy and several different accounts and theories have been presented, they all center around the cause of death being a nose bleed in early 453.
What is most often claimed is that Attila the Hun died of a nosebleed on his wedding night. He had just married a woman named Ildico. A going theory is that he died of a hemorrhoid in his esophagus which was caused by heavy drinking.
Chronic alcoholism can lead to acid reflux disease, which can lead to ruptures in the esophagus. This would mean it wasn't his nose really bleeding at all, but blood would still have been flowing out his nostrils and mouth. A
nother account claims that his nose suddenly began bleeding very severely during the wedding feast and in the ensuing confusion, he choked to death. One more theory is that he died of internal bleeding. There is also an account that claims his wife killed him, but most scholars reject it as hearsay.

The image above shows a Royal Masque in progression. Masques were stylish entertainments produced by and for the monarch and the court. The more elaborate and lavish the production the better. Masques consisted of dramatic pageants, which incorporated drama, music, dance, ornate costumes, and elaborate scenery. While the performances often likened rulers to mythical gods and heroes, there was always room for subtle criticism of public policy and laws.
Can you create your own Elizabethan-style Court Masque? The following activity will show you how.
First, decide who you would like to honor with this masque. It could be one person or a group of people who you would like to honor. Think of a good-natured joke or humorous story about this person that you can tell at the performance.
Then, select a song or write your own that expresses how you feel about this person or group of people. You can dance to this song or sing it. If you dance to it, make sure there are enough people to dance and perform the music. If you would like to learn more about Elizabethan dances, click here.
Next, choose a scene from Shakespeare or write your own that expresses what you feel about the person or group of people you are honoring. The scene doesn't need to be long, maybe two to three minutes or one to two pages.
To dress up the revellers (actors) make some costume pieces and embellish them. Choose something simple, like necklaces, hats and bracelets and add a bit of flare: add glitter, feathers, scarves and ties. If you would like to see images of Elizabethan costumes, click here.
Rehearse it once or twice until you're comfortable and ready to perform.
Performance time! Start by introducing yourself and the person or group you're honoring. Then tell the joke or humorous story. Next perform your scene, followed by your dance, and conclude with a bow. Bravo!

To repaint garden statues, you will need a few basic materials and follow a step-by-step process. Here's a guide on how to repaint garden statues:
- Preparation: Start by selecting a well-ventilated area to work in, preferably outdoors. Lay down a protective covering like a drop cloth or old newspapers to prevent any paint from ruining the ground or surrounding areas.
- Clean the statue: Before repainting, it is essential to clean the statue thoroughly to remove any dirt, dust, or previous flaking paint. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub the surface. If there are any stubborn stains, you can use mild soap or a mixture of water and vinegar to clean it off.
- Remove loose or peeling paint: Inspect the statue for any loose or peeling paint. If you find any, use a wire brush or sandpaper to remove it. This step ensures a smooth and even surface for the new paint to adhere to.
- Sand the surface: Lightly sand the entire statue using fine-grit sandpaper. This step helps to create a rough surface, improving paint adhesion and promoting durability. After sanding, wipe away any dust or debris with a clean cloth.
- Prime the statue: Applying a primer is essential for a long-lasting paint job. Choose a primer suitable for outdoor use and compatible with the material of the statue. Apply an even coat of primer to the entire surface of the statue, following the manufacturer's instructions. Allow it to dry completely before proceeding.
- Paint the statue: Once the primer is dry, you can start painting the statue. Select a high-quality acrylic paint suitable for outdoor use. Use a paintbrush or a small roller to apply the paint, ensuring smooth and even coverage. Start with broad strokes, covering larger areas, and then move to smaller details. Allow the first coat to dry completely before deciding if additional coats are necessary.
- Apply additional coats: Depending on the color and condition of the statue, you may need to apply multiple coats of paint to achieve the desired look. Allow each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next one, usually following the manufacturer's recommendations for drying time.
- Seal the paint: Once you are satisfied with the color and coverage, it is advisable to apply a clear sealant or varnish to protect the paint from weather elements and prolong its lifespan. Ensure the sealant is compatible with the type of paint you have used. Apply the sealant evenly, following the manufacturer's instructions.
- Let it dry: Allow the statue to dry completely before moving it back to its original location or exposing it to any moisture or harsh elements.
By following these steps, you can repaint your garden statues, giving them a fresh and revitalized appearance that can enhance the overall beauty of your garden.
How do I properly clean the garden statues before repainting?
Cleaning garden statues before repainting is essential to ensure proper adhesion of the new paint and remove any dirt, debris, or old flaking paint. Here are some steps to properly clean your garden statues:
- Remove loose dirt: Use a soft brush or cloth to gently remove any loose dirt or cobwebs from the surface of the statue. Be careful not to scratch or damage the surface.
- Rinse with water: Use a hose or bucket of water to rinse off the statue thoroughly. This will help remove any remaining loose dirt or debris.
- Create a cleaning solution: In a bucket, mix a mild detergent or dishwashing liquid with warm water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the statue finish.
- Scrub gently: Dip a soft-bristled brush or sponge into the cleaning solution and gently scrub the entire surface of the statue. Pay particular attention to areas with stubborn stains or dirt buildup.
- Rinse thoroughly: After scrubbing, rinse off the statue with clean water to remove any soap residue. Make sure to rinse off all the cleaning solution.
- Remove stains or moss: If there are any stubborn stains or moss growth, consider using a mixture of equal parts water and vinegar or hydrogen peroxide. Apply the solution to the affected areas, allow it to sit for a few minutes, then scrub gently with a brush before rinsing thoroughly.
- Allow the statue to dry completely: After cleaning, allow the garden statue to air dry completely before proceeding with repainting. This is crucial to ensure proper adhesion and avoid any moisture-related issues.
Once the statue is dry, you can proceed with the repainting process using appropriate outdoor paint and following the manufacturer's instructions for application.
Can I use spray paint for repainting garden statues?
Yes, you can use spray paint to repaint garden statues. Spray paint is a convenient and efficient way to cover large surface areas and can provide a smooth, even finish. However, it is important to properly prepare the surface of the garden statue before painting and choose a spray paint that is suitable for outdoor use to ensure durability and weather resistance. Additionally, following the instructions on the spray paint can, such as applying multiple thin coats and allowing sufficient drying time, will help achieve the best results.
Should I use a primer before painting the statues?
Yes, using a primer before painting statues is generally recommended. Primers create a smooth and even surface that helps the paint adhere properly and provides better coverage. It also helps to seal the underlying material, which can prevent issues like bleed-through or staining. Additionally, primers can help to enhance the longevity and durability of the painted surface.
What tools and materials do I need to repaint garden statues?
The tools and materials you will need to repaint garden statues include:
- Mild soap or detergent: This is used for cleaning the statues before painting.
- Scrub brush or sponge: To remove dirt, debris, and loose paint from the statues.
- Sandpaper or sanding block: Helps to smooth out any rough or chipped areas on the statues.
- Primer: A coat of primer is essential for better paint adhesion and to create a smooth surface for the paint.
- Paint: Choose outdoor paint that is suitable for the material of your statues. Acrylic or latex paints work well for most statues, while oil-based paint may be required for certain materials.
- Paintbrushes: Different sizes of brushes are useful for painting large areas and smaller details.
- Painter's tape: Use it to mask off areas you don't want to paint or to create clean lines and patterns.
- Drop cloth or newspaper: To protect the surrounding area from paint splatters or drips.
- Clear coat or sealer: This is optional but can be applied to protect the paint from weathering and fading.
- Safety equipment: Gloves, goggles, and a mask should be worn to protect yourself while working with paints and chemicals.
Remember to follow the specific instructions provided by the manufacturer for each tool and material you use.
Should I repaint garden statues in direct sunlight or shade?
It is generally recommended to repaint garden statues in shade rather than direct sunlight. Painting in direct sunlight can cause the paint to dry too quickly, leading to a less smooth finish and potential for streaks or uneven coverage. Additionally, direct sunlight can cause the paint to become too hot and bubble or blister. Painting in the shade allows for a more controlled environment and better painting conditions.
How do I fix chipped or cracked areas before repainting garden statues?
Fixing chipped or cracked areas before repainting garden statues typically involves a few simple steps:
- Clean the statue: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove any dirt, dust, or grime from the surface of the statue. This will ensure that the paint adheres properly.
- Sand the damaged areas: Use fine-grit sandpaper to gently sand down the chipped or cracked areas. Smooth out any rough edges and create a more even surface for the paint to adhere to. Be careful not to sand too aggressively, as this can damage the surrounding areas or change the statue's texture.
- Remove loose debris: Wipe away any loose debris or dust from the sanded areas. Use a damp cloth or sponge to thoroughly clean the surface after sanding, ensuring there is no remaining residue.
- Fill the cracks or chips: Depending on the size and depth of the damage, you can use various materials to fill the cracks or chips. Epoxy putty, fiberglass filler, or a specialized statue repair product can be suitable options. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application and drying time.
- Smooth the repaired areas: After the filling material has dried completely, use sandpaper or a sanding block to gently smooth and shape the repaired areas. Make sure the surface is level and blends well with the surrounding statue material.
- Prime the repaired areas: Apply a coat of primer to the repaired areas using a paintbrush or spray primer. This step helps the paint adhere better and ensures a consistent finish. Follow the drying time mentioned on the primer's label.
- Repaint the statue: Once the primer is dry, you can repaint the entire statue or just touch up the repaired areas using suitable outdoor paint. Choose paint specifically designed for outdoor use and follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding application and drying time. Apply multiple thin coats for a more even and durable finish, allowing each coat to dry completely before adding the next.
Remember to clean the brushes and tools properly after each step to maintain their longevity.

This dress is an incredible story of survival. In the early 17th century, a ship carrying a wedding dress was caught in a fierce storm and sunk to the bottom of the sea. For centuries, the dress lay forgotten at the bottom of the ocean, until it was recently discovered by divers.
The dress is a beautiful example of 17th century fashion, and is made from silk and velvet. It is embroidered with gold and silver thread and has intricate lace trim. The dress is believed to have belonged to a wealthy family, and is a remarkable example of craftsmanship from the era.
Amazingly, despite spending centuries submerged in seawater, the dress is still intact and in remarkably good condition. Experts believe that the saltwater and cold temperatures of the deep ocean were likely responsible for preserving the dress in its original state.
The dress is now in the hands of conservationists and is on display in a museum. It is an amazing reminder of the power of nature and a testament to the craftsmanship of centuries past.


4 Practices For Solving NBC Audio Problems
nbc audio problems
nbc audio problems
NBC is one of the most preferred choices among people who like access to an endless range of content. This is because the NBC TV network offers a promising range of TV shows and movies. The best thing about this TV network is that it allows the users to schedule the downloading of the desired content. However, there are various NBC audio problems associated with this TV network, and with this article, we will mention the common problems as well as the suitable solutions.
NBC Audio Problems
1. No Audio
It is needless to say that proper audio function is important to enjoy the video content, and when the video starts playing without any audio playback, it's obvious that you have to check the settings and signals. First of all, you must test other videos on the NBC TV network to determine if the problem is only on one channel or all channels. Keep in mind that if all channels have no audio issue, it's something wrong with the service. On the other hand, if only one channel has no audio problem, there are higher chances that the channel has some signal issues, which can be resolved by calling the channel provider.
The second solution is to check the audio settings. This is because incorrectly set audio settings will mean that you won't be able to hear the audio. If you are using the smart TV, you need to open the settings and make sure the audio is set to normal or stereo. On the other hand, if you are watching NBC TV network on a computer or smartphone and there is no audio, you have to check the device's volume to make sure it is not set too low.
2. Distorted Audio Sound
The distorted audio sound means that the videos will have audio running in the background, but there will be distortions – the audio will be too fast, too slow, or the audio will be missing. In the majority of cases, this issue is caused by the backend server issue. To begin with, you should call the NBC TV network to make sure their server is not down. This is because when the server is down, there will be an issue with the signal reception. Similarly, when the signals aren't received properly, the audio won't work on point. All in all, if there is a server issue, you will only have to wait because only the network providers can fix this problem.
Secondly, you must check the cables. In the majority of cases, people think that audio and sound issues aren't caused by cables, but HDMI cables are often at fault. You have to start by inspecting the HDMI cables and see if the cables have been damaged. If that's the case, you will need to replace your HDMI cables. On the other hand, if the cables are not damaged, you must ensure that they are plugged in tightly into the respective jacks.
3. Out-Of-Sync Audio & Video
The out-of-sync audio and video means that the audio won't play with the video; there will be disruptions in the flow of audio. For the most part, the problem is caused by signal disruption. For this purpose, you have to check the receiver and dish and make sure there are no hindrances around these units. For instance, you have to check the dish and make sure there are no hindrances around it, such as bushes and trees.
When the dish is getting proper signals and it's sending these signals to the receiver, the audio and video sync will be optimized. On the other hand, if the dish has been disturbed and you aren't able to handle it on your own, you have to call NBC TV network's technical team because they will be able to realign the dish and set up the receiver again to make sure everything works in unison.
4. Too High Or Low Volume
When the volume of your content is too high or too low, it is usually caused by your volume settings. You need to start by checking the volume control of your device and make sure it's not set too high or low. Once you regulate the volume, you will be able to get the desired level of volume. However, if the device's volume is all right, you can call customer support for help.

What is the Probability of Profit (POP)?
It is the chance of making at least $0.01 on a trade
The Probability of Profit, or more commonly referred to as POP, is the theoretical probability of your equity/etf position(s) making at least $0.01 on a trade. POP uses a set of variables such as position type, whether you are long or short, time, and volatility (for the distribution curve).
What is the Equity Probability of Profit (ePoP)?
It is the chance that your portfolio's equity/ETF positions make at least $0.01.
The Equity Probability of Profit (ePoP) is the theoretical probability of profit of your portfolio's equity/ETF positions (stock & options) making at least $0.01. ePoP does not apply to futures or futures options positions.
Where can I view POP or ePoP?
Profit Probability displays two different ways–a per position level or portfolio level
POP displays during order entry in the trade details area. Additionally, after you open the position, you may view PoP in the Positions tab by adding the POP column.
You can view your Equity PoP, or ePoP, by adding the column to your Account Header Details on the desktop platform. Additionally, ePoP displays to the left of the Account drop-down menu at the top of the web-browser platform.
How do you calculate POP & ePoP?
The POP algorithm has two different modes behind the calculation
Currently, PoP graph view is only available on the web-browser platform. We plan on extending this feature to the desktop platform with future updates. That said, both calculation methods use the portfolio's beta-weighted symbol. By default, the platform beta-weights to SPY. To learn how to change your portfolio's beta-weighted symbol, please click here.
Single Underlying (POP)
When viewing the POP of a single underlying, POP bases it on a simple P/L graph of the underlying. The example below illustrates a single iron condor. Furthermore, a distribution curve based on the portfolio's beta weight is applied (default is SPY). That means if you have a position with a 7-days-to-expiration (DTE) option and a 21 DTE option, then the POP calculation will use the 21 DTE distribution curve (or the volatility index) of the portfolio's beta-weighted symbol. As a result, the total area under the distribution curve when profit goes to 0 equals 1 (shaded yellow) The beta-weighted area in the distribution curve where the position generates a profit (shaded green) is subtracted from 1, thus producing the POP.
Multiple Underlyings (ePoP)
When viewing portfolio ePoP of a portfolio, a single P/L graph of the portfolio generates based on the portfolio's beta-weighted symbol (default is SPY). Similar to the way a single underlying P/L graph generates, the total area under the distribution curve (or volatility index) when profit goes to 0 equals 1 (shaded yellow).

Sometimes, rebooting or restarting your device may be referred to as a soft reset, which means the exact same thing: you are turning the device off and back on again to start with a clean slate so that your programs can run normally.
The good news is that even though neglecting to restart your phone periodically could zap memory and cause crashes, it won't directly kill your battery.
What Is Difference Between Reboot and Restart
When you choose the restart option on your computer, you are telling the operating system to restart every application that is currently running on it, whereas pressing the reboot button is equivalent to forcing the operating system to restart.
Do Reboot Means Restart
Rebooting is typically required after a computer crashes, which means it stops functioning due to a malfunction. Rebooting is starting a computer for a second or third time after booting, which is starting the operating system of a computer.

The Star SEC Calculator App – the first step on the temperature controlled storage journey to Net Zero
Group Sales & Marketing Director
Temperature Controlled Storage & Distribution
Group Sales & Marketing Director
Temperature Controlled Storage & Distribution
Star Refrigeration free Specific Energy Consumption benchmarking app (SEC Calculator App) launched recently, amidst the build-up to COP26 and much conversation around the need for businesses to meet Climate Change commitments and start on the route to Net Zero.
It feels important to mention the energy climate in which the App launches because there can be the impression gained that the climate emergency is so dire, it's going to take some awesomely complicated technology to sort it all out. And what can one business do in the face of such depressing statistics and urgent deadlines?
The cooling industry currently accounts for around 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is warning that without radical changes, cooling industry HFC emissions are projected to reach 20% of CO2 output in 2050.
UNEP's Emissions Gap Report 2021 shows that new national climate pledges, combined with other mitigation measures, still put the world on track for a global temperature rise of 2.7 degrees Centigrade by the end of the century. That is well above the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement, and would lead to catastrophic changes in the Earth's climate.
It's easy to read statistics and reports such as these and feel that the challenge is insurmountable.
And that, as Professor Katharine Hayhoe (Chief Scientist at The Nature Conservancy) has pointed out, is the exact problem.
"The no. 1 thing that we are missing is a sense of efficacy," she commented recently at Yahoo Finance's All Markets Summit. "We don't think that anything we do will make a difference. But the world has changed before. And when it changed, it was when individual people used their voices to talk about how the world could be different."
Obviously we are not suggesting that the SEC Calculator App is about to bring about a different world or some sort of climate revolution. And that is the point. It is the small, incremental changes that businesses and individuals make, continuously over a period of time, that will take us on the journey to Net Zero over the next 30 years.
Specific Energy Consumption Benchmarking App
The SEC Calculator App allows temperature controlled storage facility owners to compare their sites' energy performance against industry Best Practice, and predicts potential energy and CO2 savings. Using it is a simple way of starting the Net Zero journey.
Once the app is downloaded, all that's required is for the user to input the store type (freezer, chill or mixed) annual energy consumption and the volume. There is also the option to input the price paid per unit of electricity.
The SEC calculator then shows how a plant compares against other sites across the UK and Europe, and what sort of energy, CO2 emission and cost savings are possible by improving the energy efficiency of the site.
The app was a response to recognising that operators needed a metric for which they could understand how well their facility was performing. It uses the method developed by ETSU (Energy Technology Support Unit) in the UK, which reports the energy in kWh of electrical input to the site per annum, divided by the cubic volume of the refrigerated space. This is known as 'Specific Energy Consumption'.
Using Specific Energy Consumption allows cold chain businesses to compare and benchmark their energy consumption to industry standards – seeing at a glance how their facility compares to other refrigeration plants and UK best practice.
The SEC Calculator App means that through benchmarking businesses can start to understand what good looks like – taking ownership of their energy use whether good, bad or indifferent.
Variations in cold store efficiency
Since the introduction of the Climate Change Agreement (CCA), the cold chain industry has performed well as a whole at reducing energy use. 2018, for example, showed a 16% year-on-year improvement compared to 2017. The CCA target for that period was just 9.6%, demonstrating how impressively the industry performed.
However, although this 'big picture' for the industry as a whole looks good, the fact is that not all its component parts are pulling in the same direction. 55% of the units surveyed in that 2017/18 period exceeded their objectives, contributing to the strong overall performance. At the same time, the same study revealed that 45% of businesses did not achieve their goals, highlighting how much more work lies ahead in reaching a net zero future.
Using the SEC Calculator App lets you know whereabouts your store sits on this sliding scale. This is the first step, which consequently allows businesses to act upon that knowledge and take the next steps to cut running costs, along with reducing their carbon footprint.
Measuring a store's performance using a smart data monitoring system such as Ethos is the second step on the road to Net Zero.
In temperature controlled storage settings it has often been difficult to assess the effectiveness of improvement initiatives due to the large daily variations in system load and weather conditions. This is one of the reasons why there has previously been a lack of uptake on new monitoring and control technologies. Without a universally recognised definition of store efficiency, it is difficult to know how effective they are.
The ability to comprehensively measure store efficiency can be achieved through a performance optimisation service, such as Ethos. This data-led system measures the performance of facilities by collecting data from refrigeration plants in real time, and comparing actual operating performance with a computer model of theoretical performance (the 'digital twin').
The smart monitoring this provides highlights any energy gap and enables the team at SDA (Star Data Analytics) to identify problems and suggest corrective actions, ensuring that systems operate in an optimised manner. Owners and operators of cold storage facilities will therefore be able to take the smart route to reducing energy usage and meeting environmental goals.
Assess Opportunities for Improvement
The third step is to use the knowledge you have gained so far to assess opportunities for improvement.
Smart data monitoring technology is able to find hidden energy saving optimisations even on well-maintained plants. Quick wins can be plant related including fixing damaged or underperforming components or tweaking control setpoints. Some might be operational related issues such as improved door control or repairing damaged dock doors. Other changes can be integrated with current maintenance activity or made through already planned capital investment, such as control upgrades and component overhauls.
These savings and changes were identified using real time data analysis to measure and compare each plant with the original design expectations. Data from over 50 live installations indicates that this saves the plant between 10% and 30% of annual running costs, helping to move operators along the road to Net Zero. An example of a recent project in which Star's perfomance optimisation system, Ethos, was used to save Asda 5GWh on energy costs and 1,100 tonnes of CO2 emissions can be found here.
Systems such as Ethos allows temperature controlled facility operators to assess the financial effectiveness of performing maintenance on industrial refrigeration systems – enabling a payback against the cost of conducting the maintenance to be calculated.
Reduce Energy Consumption, Increase Reliability and Remain Compliant
The fourth step along this roadmap to Net Zero is to begin and continue reducing energy consumption – at the same time as increasing reliability and remaining compliant with legislation.
Implementing recommendations from a data monitoring and performance optimisation programme can help you to meet your Climate Change Agreement (CCA) targets by reducing running costs. This can ensure that your facility receives a 92% reduction on the Climate Change Levy.
Comparing an average cold store energy consumption of 50kWh/m3/yr from the European ICE project (Evans et al, 2013) with that of best practice 10kWh/m3/yr (Pearson 2019) shows that there can often be a factor of 5 between the average cold store energy use and best practice. Given the rocketing price of energy, it's clear that poor control of energy use can make the difference between profit and loss for an organisation – and between meeting your CCA targets, and not.
The backdrop of COP26 implies that large action is required – and indeed on some level it is. However, it is also all the small actions that add up to the sum of the whole. For example, one of the benefits of using monitoring technology is that it gives the store operator confidence in the reliability of the operation. This means that they can take supposedly small (but actually highly significant) actions such as raising the temperature setpoint of the facility. Sometimes temperature targets are set lower than necessary in order to provide a perceived buffer against unreliable operation. When this is no longer necessary, further emissions and cost savings can be made.
Having robust planned preventative maintenance will also help to ensure reliability and avoid unexpected costs for repair and downtime. This should include future planning in terms of capital expenditure of overhauls, repairs and replacement.
From PSII inspections to ammonia hazard assessments, it's important to know that your equipment is safe to operate and in line with current requirements. Failure to do so could put staff and contractors at risk in terms of health and safety and ultimately be a risk to your company's future existence.
Final step: Track Progress and Continuous Improvement
Taking the initial action of benchmarking using the SEC Calculator App, followed by performance optimisation, assessing areas for improvement and making energy reductions, all add up to robust action for yourself as a business and the planet as a whole.
The effects of any improvements should be continuously monitored, ensuring you are in the best position possible to meet or exceed 2050 Net Zero

Who Procues for Whom in the World...
WHO PRODUCES FOR WHOM IN THE WORLD ECONOMY?
For nearly two decades, the share of trade in inputs, also called vertical trade, has dramatically increased. This paper suggests a new measure of international trade: "value-added trade". Like many existing estimates, "value-added trade" is net of double-counted vertical trade. It also reallocate trade flows to their original input-producing industries and countries and allows to answer the question "who produces for whom". In 2004, 27% of international trade were "only" vertical specialization trade. The sector repartition of value-added trade is very different from the sector repartition of standard trade. Value-added trade is less regionalized than standard trade.
