Aneke Ifemeni, the coordinator of the Delta State Coconut Development Programme (DESCODEP), on Tuesday, revealed the state government's plan to generate N1.8 billion annually from coconut plantations across the state.
He said that four models have been adopted to make the programme a job and revenue generating programme for everybody involved.
The coordinator listed the models as: government/community partnership model, government/family partnership model, government/individual partnership model and government/investor partnership model.
"From the models we have adopted, considering the current prices of coconut fruit in the market, from one hectare, the government equity share is approximately N1.8 million," Ifemeni said.
"That means from a plantation of 1,000 hectares, government will generate the sum of N1.8 billion annually , but in the next four years, we are projecting to have planted 10,000 hectares across the state.
"This will drastically reduce government dependency on revenue from oil, which is already facing threat in the world market and many research findings providing alternative to the use of oil."
According to the coordinator, the state government has already successfully established 40 hectares of coconut plantation across the state in Onicha-Ukwuani, Utagba-Uno, Mbiri and Umuaja areas of the state.
"A coconut nursery planted with 20,000 coconut seeds had been developed in Onicha-Ukwuani. It would be used to develop 100 hectares of coconut plantation in 2023," Ifemeni added.
He gave the revelation during the World Coconut Day Celebration held in Asaba, Tuesday, September 6, 2022 with the theme: Building a Safe Inclusive Resilient and Sustainable Coconut Community.
"Based on our adverts and the sensitization exercise carried out across the state, several communities have been writing us to partner with DESCODEP and these include individuals, cooperative societies, institutions of learning amongst others," he said.
"So far, 5,000 hectares of land have been donated by communities to partner with us, individuals, cooperatives and institutions have donated over 2000 hectares of land for the programme."
In our data bank, over 2,000 farmers and counting have been profiled and this exercise is on-going, he disclosed.
He said that in all the models adopted, government, community, individuals, families and investors have percentage share of the income generated as the coconut begins fruiting throughout the life span of the coconut plantation.
He said that DESCODEP would partner with National Coconut Producers, Processors and Marketers Association of Nigeria (NACOPPMAN) by engaging their members as consultants in managing the plantations, carrying out all the agronomic practices expected to ensure that coconut gives the expected yield, and also in processing the fruits into various coconut value chain and marketing the fruits..
He noted that the coconut programme was capable of funding itself and generating more revenue for funding other governmental activities.
"The job potential opportunities in the coconut production value chain is enormous as there are over 360 by-products from coconut as stated by Prof Maurice Iwu, the guru in coconut research; and these products are job providers," he said.
"Therefore, from one hectare of coconut plantation, a minimum of four direct jobs and 10 indirect jobs will be created and in every community we establish a coconut plantation, unemployment will be flushed away."
He held that the jobs created are white collar-jobs because one does not need to be untidy in carrying out tasks concerning the coconut plantations, especially now that agriculture has been mechanized.
He enjoined all and sundry, particularly the communities, individuals, private investors, cooperatives, institutions, and other various groups to invest and partner with government. The whole world stand to benefit and this would help to "build a safe, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable coconut community, he said.
In her remarks, Cordelia Anyangwu, the national chairman of the NACOPPMAN recalled her mandate to ensure of 10,000 hectares of coconut trees are planted across the state before year 2027.
The mandate of our association is to ensure Coconut Sufficiency in Nigeria (COSIN), she said, and expressed hope that it would be achieved even as she encouraged everyone to plant coconut tree so that by 2027, every family would have coconut in Delta.
In a brief remark, Godfrey Enita, the state commissioner for agriculture, said that Ifeanyi Okowa', the state governor, was particular about the natural resource (coconut) because of the numerous health benefits and to boost the economy.
He advised participants at the occasion to pay attention to the resource persons so as to grab all the information the benefits of the God-given commodity offers to mankind.
He urge everyone in the state to plant coconut tree so that by 2027, every family will have coconut in Delta.
The highlights of the occasion included paper presentations on coconut by various resource persons as well as exhibition of products made with coconut.
One of such presentations was on "Coconut Resourcefulness in Multiple Diversity and Wealth Creativity" by Gloria Umukotete, the Lead Consultant, Uriri Agribusiness and Environment Innovations.
Nigeria Institute For Oil Palm (NIFOR) also made a presentation, calling for all hands to to be on the deck to lift Nigeria from 19th position globally to be top producer of coconut in Africa and worldwide.

Ultrafast dynamics of excess electrons in molten salts: Part II.† Femtosecond investigations of Na–NaBr and Na–NaI melts
Ultrafast dynamics of excess electrons in Na–NaBr and Na–NaI molten solutions at elevated temperatures (T = 953–1128 K) were investigated over an extended wavelength range. Modelling the time profiles resulted in two time constants τ1 = (200 ± 40) fs and τ2 = (2.8 ± 0.4) ps for both systems at 1073 K. All transients can be understood in terms of dynamical equilibria between polaron and Drude-type electrons as well as polaron and Drude-type electron forming bipolarons. In agreement with our earlier results for K–KCl melts the fast component is assigned to the relaxation of Drude-type electrons into polarons while the longer component, τ2, represents the time during which Drude-type electrons recombine with polarons leading to bipolarons. In addition, the temperature dependence was studied in Na–NaI: Decreasing the temperature to 953 K resulted in an increase of the time constants to τ1 = (360 ± 50) fs and τ2 = (4.3 ± 0.7) ps, respectively. At temperatures, where the ionic diffusion in Na–NaI melts becomes comparable to Na–NaBr melts, the time constants for the relaxation processes also coincide. The temperature-dependent investigations resulted in an Arrhenius activation energy of (25 ± 5) kJ mol−1 for Na–NaI melts in good agreement with literature data.

Weak pulse; Absent pulse
Definition of Pulse – weak or absent
A weak pulse means you have difficulty feeling a person's pulse (heartbeat). An absent pulse means you cannot detect a pulse at all.

Create Supertransition Objects
The Stateflow® API does not currently support the direct creation of supertransitions. Supertransitions are transitions between different levels in a chart. A supertransition can be between a state in a top-level chart and a state in one of its substates, or between states residing in different substates. For a better understanding of supertransitions, see Move Between Levels of Hierarchy by Using Supertransitions.
You can use a workaround for indirectly creating supertransitions. In this example, a supertransition is desired from a junction inside a subchart to a junction outside the subchart. In order to use the Stateflow API to create the supertransition in this example, first use the API to create the superstate as an ordinary state with a transition between its contained junction and a junction outside it.
Now set the IsSubchart property of the state A to true (=1).
This step makes state A a subchart, and the transition between the junctions is now a supertransition.
You can also connect supertransitions to and from objects in an existing subchart (state A, for example) with these steps:
 1. Save the original position of subchart A to a temporary workspace variable.
 For example, if the subchart A has the API handle sA, store its position with this command:
 sA_pos = sA.Position;

 2. Convert subchart A to a state by setting the IsSubchart property to false (=0).
 sA.IsSubchart = 0;
 3. Ungroup state A by setting the IsGrouped property to false (=0).
 sA.IsGrouped = 0;
 When you convert a subchart to a normal state, it stays grouped to hide the contents of the subchart. When you ungroup the subchart, it might resize to display its contents.
 4. Make the necessary transition connections.
 See Create New Objects in the Chart for an example of creating a transition.
 5. Set the IsSubchart property of state A back to true (=1).
 For example, sA.IsSubchart = 1;
 6. Assign subchart A its original position.
 sA.Position = sA_pos;
 When you convert a subchart to a normal state and ungroup it, it might resize to accommodate the size of its contents. The first step of this procedure stores the original position of the subchart so that this position can be restored after the transition connection is made.

Cooling down with nanodiamonds in your clothes
Researchers at RMIT in Australia created smart textiles that can help people cool down faster, using nanodiamonds.
Nanodiamonds are not the same as diamonds used in jewellery. They are cheap to make, cheaper than other carbon materials like graphite oxide. Nanodiamonds have a carbon lattice structure, but are much smaller in size and can be made of waste materials.
In their study, the researchers found that fabric made from cotton coated with nanodiamonds, using a method called electrospinning, showed a reduction of 2-3 degrees Celsius during the cooling down process compared to untreated cotton. In addition, the nanodiamonds increase the UV protection of cotton.
The side of the fabric with the nanodiamond coating touches the skin. The nanodiamonds then transfer the air from the body to the air.
While 3 degrees Celsius may not sound like much, according to the researchers, it could make the difference between turning the air conditioning on or not. This could save up to 30 per cent energy.
The study also shows potential to explore how nanodiamonds can be used to protect buildings from overheating, which can lead to additional environmental benefits.

The higher one's Speed, the faster one moves and the more attacks one can make in a given period of time. Logic asserts also that one's Speed is necessarily reduced by the weight one carries, and that attack speed must also be affected by the Speed Factor of one's chosen weapon. Speed is normally equal to Dexterity, or Dexterity plus five if the character's Dexterity is 20 or greater, but a few items change it independent of Dexterity. It can never be lower than 1.

The Church of England's lead bishop on education has defended the government's new relationships and sex education lessons while stating that parents should have the right to withdraw their children.
The Church of England was part of the government's consultation into the lessons, which will become mandatory across schools in 2020.
Writing for Tes, the teachers' forum, Bishop Stephen Conway sought to allay the fears of some critics about the contents of the lessons.
"It is pleasing to see a focus for primary school children on families of different types and healthy relationships, within the context of a set of shared values," he wrote.
"Primary aged children will not – as has been suggested – be expected to learn about intimate sexual relationships, which rightly comes at the secondary stage."
He said that the Church of England had been "robust" in calling for the lessons to be "carefully targeted and age-appropriate" and for all schools, including those of a religious nature, to be able to teach about faith perspectives on the issues raised in the classes.

Human trafficking resource for high schools
Our human trafficking resource has been created specifically for high school students in New Zealand. The resource provides an overview of human rights, human trafficking and modern day slavery. It has been designed to comply with level five curriculum requirements for social sciences in New Zealand, including the following achievement objectives:
- Understand how cultural interaction impacts on cultures and societies.
- Understand that people move between places and how this has consequences for the people and the places.
- Understand how people define and seek human rights.
The goal is to have this resource taught at all schools in New Zealand. We encourage people to learn about human trafficking, download a human trafficking resource, meet with the school principal or a dean of social sciences at a school in their community and advocate for this resource being taught in year 9 and 10 social science classes.
What to do with the high school resource on human trafficking
- Download and print the resource from our website
- Organise a meeting with the principal of head of department ("HOD") for social sciences in a school you are connected to or that is in your community
- At the meeting, give the principal/HOD the resource and tell him/her WHY it is essential that human trafficking is taught in schools
- Organise a follow-up meeting with the principal/HOD two weeks later to see whether the resource is being implemented
- Email us at _EMAIL_ and let us know how things went so we can improve it and get it more widely dispersed


Grand Canal dAlsace
Grand Canal d'Alsace, English Great Alsace CanalGrand Canal d'Alsace at Breisach, Ger.Norbert Blauwaterway along the Rhine River, in eastern France, designed in 1922. The first section, at Kembs, opened in 1932, and three more pairs of locks were built between 1952 and 1959. The canal is now 50 km (30 miles) long and runs between Basel, Switz., and Breisach, Ger. It was built to improve navigation of the Rhine (hindered by shallows and a rapid current) and thus to increase traffic upstream from Strasbourg. Electricity is generated at the locks, the largest of each pair being 185 by 23 metres (600 by 75 feet).

An evaluation of CRM attitudes of Filipino pilots in four Philippine aviation companies
Gokongwei College of Engineering
International Journal of Aviation Psychology
This study evaluated the attitudes and perception of pilots in the Philippine aviation industry. The evaluation was made in terms of understanding crew resource management (CRM) concepts and adoption of CRM attitudes by the pilots. Eighty-eight pilots from different companies participated in this study. Results showed that attitudes of Filipino pilots strongly adhered to CRM principles. This may be attributed to strong management support for CRM practice and national culture. The Filipino culture of pakikisama and pakikibagay reinforced CRM teachings on teamwork and crew coordination. However, the large power gap in the Filipino culture seems to hinder open communication with superiors. The length of CRM training and its latency did not prove to be significant determinants of CRM-related attitudes. Copyright © 2007, Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Inc.

I have been running an ultrasonic sensor on a raspberry pi for a while, with quite some good results.
I wanted to port this on an esp8266 and, it looks like the result are a bit less accurate than on the pi.
Here is the graphs usage of each one :
The line is quite smoother on the pi.
Here is the code i use on the esp8266 to get the values :
Code: Select all
import time import machine trigger_pin=5 echo_pin=4 trigger=machine.Pin(trigger_pin, machine.Pin.OUT) echo=machine.Pin(echo_pin, machine.Pin.IN) def get_distance(): trigger.low() time.sleep_us(5) trigger.high() time.sleep_us(10) trigger.low() while echo.value()==0: start=time.ticks_us() while echo.value()==1: delta=time.ticks_diff(time.ticks_us(), start) distance=(delta/2)/29 return distance
I suspect that the tick is less reliable on the esp8266 than on the pi. For example, in an other project, using a timer of 90000 milliseconds yield in a run of 82 seconds.
Any idea on how the code could be getting better result out of this sensor on esp8266?

Oracle Fusion Middleware Evaluation Guide for Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition
Overview of the Commands
The DSEE includes the following tools to facilitate command-line management of the server:
On a Solaris package installation, these commands are located in /opt/SUNWdsee7/bin by default.
Some administrative operations, such as starting and stopping a server instance, require a local agent. For the command line, the local agent is the command itself. The dsadm and dpadm commands run locally because they require the server to be offline or they require specific system rights. For example, if you use the dsadm command to change a certificate, the server can be running but the operation needs to be executed by a privileged user.
You can use the DSEE CLI to administer and configure your directory remotely. You can run the dsconf and dpconf commands remotely to create suffixes, server instances, and indexes. These commands use LDAP authentication, so you do not need a local user on your machine, although the server instance itself must be running.


Dead Children's Playground – Huntsville, Alabama - Atlas Obscura
Dead Children's Playground
Cemeteries can be boring for kids. The weight and import of death has not truly sunk in yet, so the cool headstones and elaborate grave markers must just seem like awesome rocks to play on, but no one will let them. They are going to live forever, so why is everyone so sad?
Well in a park space adjoining Alabama's Maple Hill Cemetery, the largest and oldest in the state, there is a small playground where they can have a place to release that energy. Of course this cemetery playground sees more ghost hunters and teenagers than bored children.
It seems like simple math that a sparse playground built on the grounds of a century-old cemetery would come to have a reputation more sinister than silly, but the planners put it in anyway.The small array of simple playground equipment includes swings, and a modern jungle gym. It is set in a low spot of the graveyard and surrounded by rocks and trees on three sides, making it all the more claustrophobic.
As the historic cemetery began running out of room in 2007, officials from the city of Huntsville decided to raze the play area to make room for more burials. Yet the locals were so outraged at the loss of their playground that a new playground was built, bringing the site back from the dead, so to speak.
Today the playground is known to locals as Dead Children's Playground and the mundane site has accumulated a deep catalogue of supernatural associations. As the believers would tell it, the swings can often be found to sway by themselves, spheres of cold ghost light can be seen floating around, and even the spectres of little kids have been spotted having a little midnight fun.
Dead Children's Playground, where kids can have the time of their afterlife.
Know Before You Go
The playground is located at the end of Newport Drive which is just off of McClung Ave SE. You can use Google Maps to map you there by typing in Dead Children's Playground. To access the park from inside the cemetery, you can park near section 40 and walk up the hill. You'll see a pavilion and the park is just the left of that.

Bluetooth moisture meters enable pros to view moisture readings
FLIR Systems announced two moisture meters with Bluetooth connectivity: the FLIR MR59 Ball Probe Moisture Meter and the FLIR MR55 Pin Moisture Meter. The tools offer moisture remediation, pest control, home or building inspection, and floor installation professionals the ability to read moisture measurements from a mobile device. Wireless connectivity in both devices offers a means to view data from a mobile device with the FLIR Tools Mobile App. This is useful when the meter's display is out of view, such as when taking measurements on a ceiling or within a cabinet.
The MR59 is a pinless moisture meter using what the manufacturer calls a unique ball probe sensor, a feature which helps users cover larger areas in a shorter time. The ball probe makes it easy to measure in corners, over uneven surfaces, and around baseboards without leaving marks. The MR59 can help detect moisture below a surface when there is no visible presence, enabling professionals to determine the moisture migration path from the source.
The model MR55 is a pin meter with a built-in library of 11 material groups including concrete, wood, drywall, brick, and others. Users can tune the meter to the most appropriate test material to improve measurement accuracy. Professionals can also access a material group reference document from FLIR.com by using a smartphone device to scan a QR code on the back of the meter.

An oxymoron. Before one receives a degree, one is an undergraduate (has not graduated). Upon receiving a degree that person becomes a graduate, therefore one can't hold a degree and be an undergraduate. Degrees earned after ones bacelor degree are called graduate degrees, which seems to have led to the mistaken notion that a bachelor degree should be called an "undergraduate degree".

Until.NET 4.0 it was impossible to reliably create Windows Shell Extensions using.NET code. With improvements to the framework, it is now possible to use.NET to create these.Net shell extensions.
Shell Context Menus are COM servers that are registered in the system that allow the context menus of shell objects to be extended. This could be the context menu for a specific file type, such as *.txt files, file classes such as 'text files', drives, folders and more. The context menus can be used to provide advanced functionality that can be accessed quickly through Windows Explorer.

Reading Azure VM name, IP address, and hostname with PowerShell
In this post, you will learn how to create a report to retrieve the virtual machine (VM) name, the IP address, and the guest OS hostname of every Azure VM using PowerShell. I'll explain how to do this for Azure classic and Azure Resource Manager (ARM).
Let's start with the classic model. Configuring VM networks in Azure is very similar to on-premises solutions such as Hyper-V. Each VM is assigned to at least one virtual network interface and can't serve as a standalone instance. Because a VM network interface can't even exist without VMs, my task is pretty easy. I just have to get all the cloud service names with their VM names and select the required properties.
Let's look at the properties of a classic Azure VM to decide which properties we have to add to the report:
Properties of a classic Azure VM
Properties of a classic Azure VM
The following command retrieves the properties I need for my report:
Name, HostName, and IpAddress properties of a VM
Name, HostName, and IpAddress properties of a VM
Then I can just add Export-CSV to that and export the output to an Excel spreadsheet:
In ARM, this task is a bit more complicated. Because the VM and the network interface are two different instances, I need to find a way to connect one to the other for my report.
First, let's take a look at the ARM VM properties:

As you can probably see from the screenshot, it's not that obvious to find the properties we need for the report. Even though the VM name and resource name are available, the IP address and guest OS name are missing. Fortunately, the guest OS name is just hidden in the OSProfile property. To access the guest OS name, I can run this command:
Extracting the guest OS hostname from the Azure ARM VM
Extracting the guest OS hostname from the Azure ARM VM
I just save the VM data to the variable and then read the information from the OSProFile.ComputerName field, which corresponds to the guest hostname.
Now I need to get an IP address, and as it turns out, it is not that simple. First, there is no IP address field. There is, however, the NetworkInterfaceIDs property. Even though it doesn't give me an IP address, it gives me network interface name. So I can try to extract the information from that, using the Get-Azurermnetworkinterface cmdlet:
ARM network interface properties
ARM network interface properties
As you can see, there's a lot of information. However, for now I'm going to use only the IP address and make a note for myself that the VirtualMachine field has an Id property and that the ID corresponds to VmId, which I previously received using Get-Azurerm cmdlet. Thus, I'll use this property to match the VM and network interface in my report:
Because I need to get the information from two sources instead of one, I'm storing all of my ARM VMs in the $vms variable and all of my interfaces in $nic. You can also notice that I'm filtering the network interfaces, getting only those where VirtualMachine property is not empty.
The reason is that I am only interested in interfaces assigned to the VMs. I'm going through the network interfaces one by one, checking if the Id property of the current VM matches the $nic.VirtualMachine.id. If it does, I find the VM that owns this particular network interface, so I put the information about this VM into the $info variable I prepared in advance. At the end of each iteration, I'm adding the data from the $info variable to the custom PowerShell object stored in the $report variable I created at the beginning.
And this is what my report for the ARM VM looks like:
Azure ARM VM report
Azure ARM VM report
Of course, you can export this report to a CSV file using the Export-Csv cmdlet.

 Great idea, after some attempts, I have made this 1-liner:
 Get-AzureRmNetworkInterface |select -Property '
 @{N='VM';E={[regex]::Match($_.VirtualMachine.Id, 'virtualMachines/(.+)$').Groups[1].Value}},
 @{N='NIC';E={$_.Name}},
 @{N='ResourceGroup';E={$_.ResourceGroupName}},
 @{N='IP'; E={'[' + ($_.IpConfigurations.PrivateIpAddress -join '] [') + ']'}},
 @{N='Subnet'; E={$script:subnet = if ($_.IpConfigurations.Subnet.Id.GetType().Name -eq 'string') '
 {$_.IpConfigurations.Subnet.Id} else {$_.IpConfigurations.Subnet.Id[0]} '
 [regex]::Match($script:subnet, 'subnets/(.+)$').Groups[1].Value}} |sort Subnet, VM |ft -au
 This approach supports multiple IPs

 Alex:
 I have a quick question. Hopefully, you can assist me or at least point me to the right solution:
 I've an urgent project to complete , where I have to look/search for specific value/number ( =>100) in column "P" in massive multiple excel files that I can point to (data sets). After that, I need to print out/save a report with folder name where that particular value was found. I was wondering if Powergrep can do this type of search. I'm very short on time.I've tried to play with Powergrep around, but couldn't find an option where I can look at specific column in Excel files.Here is an example of folder structure and what I need to look for and what is my output should be:
 Looking at column "P" in excel ( column called "Temperature") for value that is =>100
 C:\Folder\ Folder1 Folder2
 Folder1 Excel1 Excel2 Excel3
 Folder2 Excel10 Excel200
 Output: The value was found @: Folder2
 Any help will be much appreciated!
 Thanks! David

 Thanks for this. Just one more thing I would like to add here was that with $info.OStype = $vm.StorageProfile.osDisk.osType you can also get the OSType details.
 I edited your script like below:
 $report = @()
 $vms = get-azurermvm
 $nics = get-azurermnetworkinterface | ?{ $_.VirtualMachine -NE $null}
 foreach($nic in $nics)
 {
 $info = "" | Select VmName, ResourceGroupName, IpAddress, OSType
 $vm = $vms | ? -Property Id -eq $nic.VirtualMachine.id
 $info.VMName = $vm.Name
 $info.ResourceGroupName = $vm.ResourceGroupName
 $info.IpAddress = $nic.IpConfigurations.PrivateIpAddress
 $info.OStype = $vm.StorageProfile.osDisk.osType
 $report+=$info
 }
 $report

 can you help to create a powershell or .net code for extracting all the resources and sub-resources associated if we pass a parent resource name.

 ex: if we say a vm name, then all the NICs, NSG, disks, extensions, etc that is being used in the resource should be listed
 I am trying to create a command but getting error.

Problems reading video with mmreader
Asked by Georg Clauss
on 19 Sep 2013
I want to load a video and work on the single frames. When I read the video it displays "unable to determine the number of frames in this file". I need only the first part of the video using the following code
obj = mmreader('videoname.avi');
for n=1:500
 mov(n).cdata = obj.read(n);
end
now I try to access the single frames in the video and display them with
img1 = mov(1).cdata
imshow(img1)
but every image in mov shows exactly the same (always the first image of the video)
My Questions:
1. Why is Matlab not able to determine the number of frames? Is there a way to work around this problem?
2. Why are always the same images (first image from video file) stored in mov? Is sthat a problem of the read function?
... I use Matlab 7.1, so can't use the VideoReader ... this is a very simplified example, but doesn't really work

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Even though the calendar reads "August," viewers have been spotting patches of "fall-like color" across West Michigan.
The daylight is beginning to get shorter for our area and the temperatures are slightly cooler, but it is far too early for most trees to be undergoing a seasonal color change. So what is happening?
BLAME IT ON THE STRESS
While some species of plants change color earlier than others, a transition to a fall-like appearance is usually a sign of stress on a tree or bush. Just like humans can "go gray" after stressful situations, trees can also change color after a particularly difficult time.
Stressed plants will do everything they can to keep their core healthy. This can mean cutting off food to branches, and allowing the leaves to undergo an early transition to death. The most common causes of stress are dryness, disease or bug infestation.
According to Bert Cregg, a horticulture expert at Michigan State University, some plants do transition to fall colors earlier than others, but mid-August is too early.
According to work by Cregg, burning bushes can turn color and drop leaves early when infested with spider mites. Drought can also stress trees and plants heavily causing an early leaf change and drop.
Over the last 30 days there have been several areas in West Michigan that are trending drier, and likely starting to show spotty tree-change.
The lakeshore is particularly susceptible to early color change this year due to the dry stripe that runs down the shoreline. Some cities and towns have seen about half of their usual rainfall in the last 30 days.
WHEN DO LEAVES CHANGE FOR GOOD IN WEST MICHIGAN?
While several weather factors impact exactly when leaves change and how vibrant they become when they do, the seasonal leaf change is mostly a function of daylight loss.
As our days get shorter and the temperatures get cooler, the leaves begin to undergo their passage to fall. This makes planning for a fall color tour across our state a bit easier.
Generally, leaf change usually begins at higher elevations and latitudes in late September for our state. Most of the Lower Peninsula waits until October to begin the change. Many counties wait until early November to fully hit peak.

Lexington's Carnegie Library
Lexington's library has a long, distinguished history. Established in 1795, it is now the oldest institution of its kind in Kentucky and possibly the oldest in the west. The library was started with 400 books, which were added to the collection that already existed at the Transylvania Seminary. The library was based on subscription wherein people paid for the use of the library holdings. In 1898, Lexington was deemed a second-class city by the Kentucky Legislature and this classification enabled the city to acquire and conduct a free library. The Carnegie Library, also known as the Lexington Public Library, was built in 1906 as a gift to the city of Lexington from the Andrew Carnegie Foundation. To receive its donation, the Carnegie Foundation required the city to provide a site for the library and to appropriate funds for the library's upkeep. The new building was constructed of Bedford limestone and was built for a sum of $75,000. Thereafter, the contents of the library were moved to their new home, a beautiful Neo-Classical building at the southern end of Gratz Park. During the late 1980s the Lexington Public Library built a new, larger central branch on East Main Street to accommodate its growing collection. The Carnegie Library is now the home of the Carnegie Center for Literacy and Learning. This organization provides many free, public programs to help spread literacy and to promote reading among children.

What is interfacial pressure HDPE pipe?
Interfacial pressure is used to calculate a fusion joining gauge pressure value for hydraulic butt fusion machines or manual machines equipped with force reading capability. The interfacial pressure is constant for all pipe sizes and all butt fusion machines.
What is the pressure rating of HDPE pipe?
Typically the standard specification identify class of a HDPE pipe is by the nominal pressure class – PN – up to PN 20 or 20 bar.
What is the properties of HDPE pipe?
HDPE pipe is a flexible plastic pipe made of thermoplastic high-density polyethylene widely used for low-temperature fluid and gas transfer….Properties of HDPE Pipes.
|Mechanical Properties||HDPE Properties|
|Yield Strength||18-26 Mpa|
|Elastic Modulus||900 Mpa|
|Hardness||61 Rockwell (Shore)|
What is PE100 HDPE?
PE100 is the third generation of pipe grade PE. It has an optimum balance of three key properties: Minimum Required Strength (MRS) – this provides long-term strength and creep resistance. Stress crack resistance (sometimes referred to as slow crack growth resistance). Rapid crack propagation resistance.
What is fusion pressure?
This process develops pressure, causing flow of the melted materials, which causes mixing and fusion. When the thermoplastic pipe is heated, the molecular structure is transformed from a crystalline state into an amorphous condition. When fusion pressure is applied, the molecules from each pipe end mix.
What is the maximum size of an HDPE compression fitting?
For 75–125mm: max.
What is PE and PN in HDPE pipe?
The PN abbreviation used after the size of the polyethylene pipe represents the maximum pressure that the pipe can withstand; just like PN 16 PE100 DN63 that is a HDPE Pipe made of PE100 material and 63 mm in diameter, and should withstand a pressure of 16 bar.

Business Rules (I realize these rules are a little abnormal): A Person (student) can attend multiple schools. Once one or more Schools are chosen, the student can pick one or more degrees at each school. Once a degree is chosen, the Student has an option of choosing to participate in many DegreeSpecificGroups, Courses, and OptionalTrips.
I have 4 tables:
Table Person
Table School
Table Degree
Table DegreeSpecificGroup
Table Course
Table OptionalTrip
Assume that each table has a need for a unique set of properties for each Person. However, I am trying to keep this simple. My question is - where should I keep the relationships with the Person table? Do I make a relationship table for each combination - ie: PersonSchool, PersonDegree, PersonCourse, PersonOptionalTrip...?
I am having troubles convincing myself to do this because it contradicts my hierarchical thinking - IE: you cannot attend an OptionalTrip unless you are enrolled in the School and have selected a Degree. Half of me wants to keep all relationship information in the highest relationship level (SchoolPerson) - but of course that table will become bloated and unmanageable. What is the proper way to handle these multi tiered relationships?
I have looked at some ER diagrams to see some examples of other diagrams but they do not have the level of detail I am looking at enter image description here

 What is the relationship between a school and a person (student?)? If a Person goes to 0 or 1 schools you don't need SchoolPerson. In general, it's difficult to discuss design without knowing the business rules, perhaps you should start formulation sentences like "A student can enroll for 1 or more Courses", "A Course has a degree and is given by a School", etc.

1 Answer 1

You have a Person, who is attending a School? They are studying for a Degree? A Degree will consist of 1 -> many Courses. A Course may be on many Degree programmes (e.g. Foundation Maths)?
The totally general case is that 1 Person can attend 1 or more schools studying for 1 or more Degrees in each school at any one time - is this possible? Some people may be repeating one course but have been allowed to advance, contingent on passing an exam elsewhere?
So, in order to be completely general, you want a Person table, a Degree table and a School table - with Person_Degree being your joining table between Person and Degree and Person and ultimately School. If a Person can only be doing 1 Degree in 1 School at any time, then you can simplify.
You then have a Degree_Course table which will have the joins between Degrees and Courses and a Course table.
Some Degrees can be multi-School - then you'll just have to have a further joining table. However, remember the YAGNI principle - if you don't have a current need, don't include it in your design. This can be difficult to judge - we want our systems to be flexible, but I'm with Einstein on this - make it as simple as necessary but no simpler!
Before a first take on the tables themselves - you could do worse than having a quick look here - you might get some ideas (and I might have even overlooked something! :-) )
Two things to bear in mind - one is that DDL (Data Definition Language) is quite powerful in its own right - right there in the database structure is a lot of "intelligence" - i.e. you can't have a degree without a school or a course without a school! The various other UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY and FOREIGN KEY constraints enforce other logical rules about the system - rules you would otherwise have to spend a lot of time enforcing in your app!
Finally, a couple of words about table names.
I always use singular names for tables - they are like a class definition and/or a collection - (for me it is a singular concept - you might disagree). As an aside, you have tables in which you might want to have only 1 or even 0 records (think nuclear power plant system with a table called "catastrophic_meltdown"). In any case, choose one convention and stick to it.
Furthermore, my table_names_might_appear_long! :-) It can be greatly helpful when debugging to have meaningful table names - code spends >> 99% of its time in maintenance, so the extra typing is a (very) small price to pay for helpful error messages when things go wrong - and they will, no matter how good a programmer you are!
In PostgreSQL, I would do it like this (should translate reasonably well to other systems - check your documentation for details!) - note that I haven't dealt with semesters/trimesters here - adding a semester field to the degree and course tables might be necessary - again, this depends on your system requirements.
CREATE TABLE person
(
 person_id SERIAL,
 CONSTRAINT person_pk PRIMARY KEY (person_id),
 person_first_name VARCHAR(25) NOT NULL,
 person_last_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
 --
 -- .. other person stuff... address, phone &c.
 -- .. could make f_name + l_name UNIQUE?
);
CREATE TABLE school
(
 school_id SERIAL,
 CONSTRAINT school_pk PRIMARY KEY (school_id),
 school_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
 -- other school stuff
 -- Tel., address... &c.
 --
);
CREATE TABLE degree
(
 degree_id SERIAL,
 CONSTRAINT degree_pk PRIMARY KEY (degree_id),
 degree_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
 degree_code VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
 degree_school_id INTEGER, -- no "NOT NULL, since it is an FK field - see below
 CONSTRAINT degree_school_fk FOREIGN KEY (degree_school_id) REFERENCES school (school_id)
 -- other degree stuff - faculty, prerequisites (another table?)
);
CREATE TABLE course
(
 course_id SERIAL,
 CONSTRAINT course_pk PRIMARY KEY (course_id),
 course_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
 course_code VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
 course_school_id INTEGER,
 CONSTRAINT course_school_fk FOREIGN KEY (course_school_id) REFERENCES school (school_id)
 -- other stuff - possibly a course_prerequisites table
);
CREATE TABLE degree_course
(
 degree_course_id SERIAL,
 CONSTRAINT degree_course_pk PRIMARY KEY (degree_course_id),
 degree_course_degree_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
 degree_course_course_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
 CONSTRAINT degree_course_degree_course_uq UNIQUE (degree_course_degree_id, degree_course_course_id), -- prevent same entry twice
 CONSTRAINT degree_course_degree_fk FOREIGN KEY (degree_course_degree_id) REFERENCES degree (degree_id),
 CONSTRAINT degree_course_course_fk FOREIGN KEY (degree_course_course_id) REFERENCES course (course_id)
);
CREATE TABLE prerequisite
(
 prerequisite_id SERIAL,
 CONSTRAINT prerequisite_pk PRIMARY KEY (prerequisite_id),
 main_course_id INTEGER,
 preq_course_id INTEGER,
 CONSTRAINT prerequisite_uq UNIQUE (main_course_id, preq_course_id) -- prevent same entry twice
 -- other info...
 --
);
CREATE TABLE person_degree
(
 person_degree_id SERIAL,
 CONSTRAINT person_degree_pk PRIMARY KEY (person_degree_id),
 person_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
 degree_id INTEGER NOT NULL
 -- various FOREIGN KEY and UNIQUE constraints to be added here!
);
Similar principles apply to your optionaltrip and degreespecific group tables - if you're having further issues, post back!

Core ADF11: Building Highly Reusable ADF Task Flows
In this old post in the Core ADF11 series, I explained the various options you have in designing the page and taskflow structure. The preferred approach in my opinion that maximizes flexibility and reusability, is to build the application using bounded taskflows with page fragments. You then have various ways to disclose these task flows to the user. You can use a dynamic region or dynamic tabs, or a human workflow task list, or even have the user add the task flow at runtime using Webcenter Composer.
To maximize reuse of individual task flows, there are some simple techniques you can apply:
 - Define a set of input parameters that allows you to configure for the various (re)use cases
 - Define a router activity as the default activity to enable reuse-case-based conditional flows
 - Configure use of dynamic iterator binding to use a task flow both as a master region or detail region
 - Configure display properties of UI components based on task flow input parameters so components can be shown/hidden, editable/readOnly, required/optional, etc based on the specific (re)use case
By applying these techniques, you can dramatically reduce the number of task flows you need to build in your project. In this sample application, you can see how you can reuse the same task flow to support the following reuse cases:
 - Show in read-only mode
 - Enable deeplinking from another page to show one specific row
 - Use as read-only context info in popup
 - Use as master region as well as detail region
 - Enable deeplinking from external source like e-mail.

I was asked to write a blog post about farmers - to explain what are the difference between chalupník (chalupner, cottager), sedlák (rusticus, Bauer, farmer), who was gruntovník and so on. I'll try to do my best to explain the differences and introduce different kinds of Czech farmers.
Let's start with hide (lán in Czech). It's a historical measurement used in both Bohemia and Moravia. There were different kinds of hides used, the one used for farmers was usually about 18 hectares (45 acres) large. It was a basic measurement and farmer who owned one hide of land and more (this is important to emphasize) was called láník (Lähner in German) or celoláník (Ganzlähner, celý, ganz = whole). I usually translate it as a farmer owning one hide of land. These farmers belonged among the largest farmers among our ancestors.
Those owning three quarters of hide to one hide were called třičtvrtěláník (Dreiviertlähner or Dreiviertler in German). It means they had between 13,5 and 18 hectares of land. Those owning half to three quarter of hide were called pololáník or půlláník or půlník (Halblähner in German).
Farmers owning from one quarter to one half of hide were called čtvrtláník or čtvrtník (Viertllähner or Viertler in German). One quarter of hide was minimum to be called sedlák (farmer), but you can see (mainly in southern and south-eastern Moravia) also farmers with half of one quarter of hide, called půlčtvtník (Halbviertler). This is historical case when houses were divided between two sons and both of them received half of the quarter - you can see such houses for example in Nová Lhota (Hodonín district). For people who had very small amounts of land (or none, but worked in agriculture), see this post.
Example of house divided among two people. Nová Lhota, Hodonín district.
Those who owned less than one quarter of hide were called chalupník (Chalupner in German, usually translated as cottager). These people belonged among farming class but weren't called sedlák. Their fields quite often weren't large enough to provide enough food to the family so they were often also craftsmen.
There is one more name you will most probably see in the registries if your ancestors were from Eastern Moravia - pasekář (Passeker in German). Paseka is forest clearance and this gives us a hint how these farms were founded - by clearing part of forest and settling there. The area of such farm wasn't strictly set, so it's hard to say how much land they had - the best way to find out is to check cadastral books in archives.
Example of pasekář settlement in Držková, Zlín district. Forests are grey.
Gruntovník was anyone owning a farm. Grunt means farm house, so anyone owning such house could be called gruntovník in parish books.
Ownership of farms
The question of ownership was also raised. Were farms owned by farmers or by the domain holders? Generally, as long as serfdom existed they were owned by the domain holders even the fact that the farmers lived on one farm for centuries. The farm was often inherited in the family but it didn't mean the farm couldn't have been taken away from the family - if the farmer was a bad housekeeper the domain owner has his right to decide he is going to change the keeper of the farm.
There were several serf duties connected to the ownership of the farm - farmers paid interest out of the farm (was set during the purchase) and they were also obliged to robota, labour for the domain owner, usually on his fields. Robota was set differently for various farmers, it always depended on the area of the farm.
I definitely forgot something I wanted to mention so this post will be most probably updated in future. :)

Get the CorDapp Template
When writing a new CorDapp, it is helpful to start from one of the following standard templates:
The CorDapp templates provide the boilerplate for developing a new CorDapp. CorDapps can be written in either Java or Kotlin. Sample code is provided in both languages throughout this tutorial.
Download the template
 1. Open a terminal window in the directory where you want to download the CorDapp template, and run the following command:
 git clone
 git clone
 2. Once you have cloned the repository you wish to use, navigate to the correct subdirectory:
 cd cordapp-template-kotlin
 cd cordapp-template-java
 3. Once you have successfully cloned the CorDapp template, open the cordapp-template-kotlin or cordapp-template-java in IntelliJ IDEA.
 If you are unsure of how to open a CorDapp in IntelliJ, see the documentation on Running a sample CorDapp.
Template structure
For this tutorial, you will only be modifying the following files:
// 1. The state
// 2. The flow
// 1. The state
// 2. The flow
Progress so far
You now have a template that you can build upon to define your IOU CorDapp. Let's start by defining the IOUState.

- okra may be used for sauce preparation as much with vegetables as with meat, be it fresh or dried.
- When using fresh okra, we cut it into very small pieces, then we add it to the vegetables into boiling water.
- We wait until the two (okra, vegetables) are well-cooked before adding any condiments (salt, Peanut butter, Maggi soy sauce or bouillon cubes, piment (hot spice), etc.).
- Then one must leave the sauce on the fire for a few minutes before serving.
- When using dried okra, we grind it into powder and put a certain quantity (in general, a tablespoon per litre of water for making sauce) in at the same time as the other condiments.
- In rare cases, okra is prepared alone as a sauce in itself (for example, during the time between sowing the fields and harvest).
- In this case, the sauce is composed of water, salt and okra (fresh or dried), cooked together. The quantity of okra must be sufficient enough for the sauce to be a sauce and not simply water.

If there is no common sub-class among these element types, you can use LINQ to project the lists using a generic Tuple<int, int, object> (i.e. rating, vote, and the original element instance) containing the two properties you are interested in. Then you can do a simple query to pick the top 10 elements:
List<A> ax = /* ... */;
List<B> bx = /* ... */;
List<C> cx = /* ... */;
/* ... */
IEnumerable<Tuple<int, int, object>> ratingsAndVotes =
 ax.Select((a) => Tuple.Create(a.Rating, a.Vote, a)).Concat(
 bx.Select((b) => Tuple.Create(b.Rating, b.Vote, b)).Concat(
 cx.Select((c) => Tuple.Create(c.Rating, c.Vote, c)) /* ... */;
Tuple<int, int, object>[] topTenItems =
 ratingsAndVotes.OrderByDescending((i) => i.Item1).ThenByDescending((i) => i.Item2).Take(10).ToArray();
// topTenItems now contains the top 10 items out of all the lists;
// for each tuple element, Item1 = rating, Item2 = vote,
// Item3 = original list item (as object)
score:8
Try something like below
var topTen = yourList.OrderBy(x => x.Rating).ThenBy(z => z.Vote).Take(10)
score:3
You can start with something like:
 var res = l1.Concat(l2).Concat(l3).Concat(l4).Concat(l5)
 .OrderByDescending(k => k.Rating)
 .ThenBy(k=>k.Vote)
 .Take(10).ToList();
where l1...l5 are your lists
score:1
You can use OrderBy and ThenBy to order by two (or more) fields and then use Take to get the top 10:
var myList = new List<Film>();
// ... populate list with some stuff
var top10 = myList.OrderBy(f => f.Rating).ThenBy(f => f.Vote).Take(10);
Hope that helps :)

MTA fails to load; DIS: Domain database error.
This happens when there are multiple domains and the outbound link for one or more domain is set to Direct Link mode via TCPIP. However, there is no IP address seen as it can be seen in the screenshot.
Corrective Action:
This could get very tedious specially when there are a lot of domains involved in a singel GroupWise system
1. Connect to the domain database in ConsoleOne for which MTA fails to load
2. Right-Click | GroupWise Utilities | Link Configuration
3. Check every outbound links for the domain.
4. If everything looks good then from the Drop down box select Primary Domain
5. Now check every outbound link.
Keep following the search process from steps 3 - 5 until you get the link as similar to screenshot above. Kindly check the links thoroughly to ensure nothing is missed.
6. Once the link is found verify the outbound links are for which domain
7. Connect to the domain database that was found in the above step and edit the outbound link
8. Toggle the setting and then save it.
9. Connect to primary domain database and rebuild the secondary domain. The MTA should now load without any errors.
Additional Information
Note: The observation generally seen when connected to secondary domain and checking the link configuration of a primary domain. When conecting the primary domain and then checking the link configuration may or may not display the correct information. Hence Toggling the link configuration and then rebuilding the secondary domain solves the issue. However, it can be that a secondary domain has got wrong info and not primary. The procedure remains the same.
Since this has got to do with link configuration, it can get quite confusing based on the complexity and number of domains and links set. Hence ensure that each link is thoroughly checked.

The increasing popularity of ambient assisted living solutions is claiming adaptive and scalable tools to monitor activities of daily living. Currently, most sensor-based activity recognition techniques rely on supervised learning algorithms. However, the acquisition of comprehensive training sets of activities in smart homes is expensive and violates the individual's privacy. In this work, we address this problem by proposing a novel hybrid approach that couples collaborative active learning with probabilistic and knowledge-based reasoning. The rationale of our approach is that a generic, and possibly incomplete, knowledge-based model of activities can be refined to target specific individuals and environments by collaboratively acquiring feedback from inhabitants. Specifically, we propose a collaborative active learning method exploiting users' feedback to (i) refine correlations among sensor events and activity types that are initially extracted from a high-level ontology, and (ii) mine temporal patterns of sensor events that are frequently generated by the execution of specific activities. A Markov Logic Network is used to recognize activities with probabilistic rules that capture both the ontological knowledge and the information obtained by active learning. We experimented our solution with a real-world dataset of activities carried out by several individuals in an interleaved fashion. Experimental results show that our collaborative and personalized active learning solution significantly improves recognition rates, while triggering a small number of feedback requests. Moreover, the overall recognition rates compare favorably with existing supervised and unsupervised activity recognition methods.

Difference Between Appendix and Annex
appendixAre you planning to publish a project? Well it's pretty normal if you happen to get confused between are you supposed to add an appendix or an annex at the end of the project. Reading through this article would be a good idea if you're looking to clear out the differences between the two and make sure that your project is free from unwanted mistakes.
An annex is essentially part of the main text but is placed at the end separately so as to make the whole document clearer; whereas an appendix is essentially additional text which full fills the purpose of supplementing the main text. In a way one could say an annex can also be called an appendix but the same is not true for appendix.
An appendix basically contains data that cannot be placed in the main text. It is referenced in different parts of the main body and ideally should not be a stand alone document. A trick to remember this is that one is appending data to a document the aim of doing this is adding greater details and visual examples that would help in better understanding of the main text.
Annex basically could be considered a completely different document altogether very often called a stand alone document which could not be added to the original document but still holds great importance to the overall publication and thus it is important that it still is added. In general, for policy matters, the appendices are usually assumed to have been written by the original author of the document. The annexes, on the other hand, are usually assumed to have been written by an external party. When writing your project it is very important the information about the various sources that you have used while making the project whether you have copied it or modified it and then added it to the document. Also make sure you have proper copyright permissions.

 1. it will be well understood if it is provided with some examples. theory is good but giving example will definitely help to understand and remeber for a long term.
 - I would think for example, a dissertation I am writing about a UN Summit….
 I will place the Declaration of Principles from the Summit in the Annex…this is a standalone document that under no circumstances would I place in the text…BUT it is highly relevant to the entire dissertation as a document — also, it wasn't written by me but by the Summit delegates…so I think then would go into an Annex…
 In the Appendix, I would maybe put something in that I wanted to clarify, maybe some more details of the theory behind the "conceptual framework" that I chose to use in order to analyze this Summit. Some people when they use formulas and stuff, will explain the details of how the formulas work in an Appendix…
 Additionally, sometimes raw data like a interview transcript would be in the Appendix if you are referring to an interview you conducted in the text, and want to show the quote in context, or refer the reader there for more details….
 I think these might be good examples…and from what I can tell this would be right…

Check if Array is Empty in Julia
To check if an array is empty in Julia, you can use the isempty function. This function takes an array as its argument and returns true if the array is empty, and false otherwise. Here is an example:
Check if Array is Empty in Julia
julia> a = []
0-element Array{Any,1}
julia> isempty(a)
true
julia> b = [1, 2, 3]
3-element Array{Int64,1}:
 1
 2
 3
julia> isempty(b)
false
In the first example, we create an empty array a using the square bracket syntax. We then use the isempty function to check if the array is empty. Since the array does not contain any elements, the isempty function returns true.
In the second example, we create a non-empty array b containing three elements. When we apply the isempty function to this array, it returns false because the array is not empty.
Overall, the isempty function is a simple and effective way to check if an array is empty in Julia. It is a useful tool for working with arrays in your code.
Here is an advanced example that demonstrates some additional features of the isempty function:
julia> a = []
0-element Array{Any,1}
julia> # Check if array is empty or contains only missing values
julia> isempty(a) || all(ismissing, a)
true
julia> b = [1, 2, missing]
3-element Array{Union{Missing, Int64},1}:
 1
 2
 missing
julia> # Check if array is empty or contains only missing values
julia> isempty(b) || all(ismissing, b)
true
julia> c = [1, 2, 3]
3-element Array{Int64,1}:
 1
 2
 3
julia> # Check if array is empty or contains only missing values
julia> isempty(c) || all(ismissing, c)
false
In this example, we use the isempty function in combination with the all function and the ismissing function to check if an array is empty or contains only missing values.
We first create an empty array a and a non-empty array b that contains missing values. When we apply the isempty function to these arrays, it returns true because they are either empty or contain only missing values.
Next, we create a non-empty array c that does not contain any missing values. When we apply the isempty function to this array, it returns false because the array is not empty and does not contain only missing values.
This example shows how the isempty function can be used in combination with other functions to check for more complex conditions in arrays. It can be a useful tool for working with arrays in Julia.

A connected farm is an architectural design common in the New England Region of the United States, and England and Wales in the United Kingdom. North American connected farms date back to the 17th century, their British counterparts have also existed for several centuries. New England connected farms are characterized by a farm house, kitchen, barn, or other structures connected in a rambling fashion. This style evolved from carrying out farm work while remaining sheltered from winter weather. In the United Kingdom there are four distinct types of connected farmsteads, all dissimilar to the New England style.
New England connected farm
The typical New England connected farm complex consists of the "big house", which acts as the standard family living quarters, connected to the Big House is the "little house", which contains the kitchen area. Next to it is the "back house", which was traditionally a carriage or wagon house. Connected to the back house is a standard livestock barn. This style was banned in many areas due to fire concerns, but the bans were lifted in the 18th century. Originally, all four buildings would have parallel roof lines. In later years (post-1800), when kitchens became more of a room of the house, the Little House became an ell off the Big House.
Connected barns describe the type of barn integrated into other structures on a farm in the New England region of the United States. The New England connected farmstead, as many architectural historians have termed the style, consisted of numerous farm buildings all connected into one continuous structure. Houses, ells, sheds, barns, and other outbuildings all were combined to form one long building. Architectural styles varied, from Greek to Gothic Revival. The connected farmstead is unique in not only its connection of house to barn to shed, and so forth, but also because the architectural style of the home was often used on the other structures, including barns, connected to it.
Noted historian and architect Thomas Hubka commented in his 1984 book, Big House, Little House, Back House, Barn, that:
"those who built connected farms changed their farms by extending the architectural style and order of the house to their barns. This was a truly radical development by New England farmers, and it is this characteristic, more than that of house and barn connection itself, that is one of the unique aspects of New England connected farm architecture."
Wilbur Zelinsky, an American geographer, undertook a survey of existing connected farmsteads in New England in 1958. Through his travels and survey he was able to determine, to some level of accuracy, the distribution of connected barns and farmsteads in New England. Zelinsky found that the connected farm was most frequently found in specific parts of New England. Namely in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, where connected barns frequently occurred almost over the entire states. Indeed, the style still persists in popular American architecture. Connected farms were also frequently observed by Zelinsky in southern Maine, eastern Vermont, and portions of northern Connecticut.
In the United Kingdom
Connected farm buildings are not confined to North America, connected structures have existed in England and Wales for centuries. The architectural historian Ronald Brunskill identified four key types of connected farm structures found in England and Wales. The longhouse is generally two connected buildings which result from the addition of more and more partitions, thus subdividing the structure, or from the outright construction of a new building adjacent to the original. Longhouses usually have cross passages and communication flows freely through the structures. The laithe house confines the family and the farm building under the same roof. However, there are no cross passages and no intercommunication between structures. Typical configurations include farm buildings used for both livestock and grain/hay storage. The bastle house is an arrangement which places the living quarters above the farm building and, usually, the farm animals. This type of connected farm was common as a defensive arrangement; living quarters were located high above for security reasons. In what Brunskill called the "simply connected arrangement" the domestic structure is connected to any type of farm building.

Quick Tip: Understanding Multi-Value Data and the Databus
Quick Tip: Understanding Multi-Value Data and the Databus
 - Comments 1
 - Likes
I saw a question in the forums around multi-value data and how someone could pass multi-value data in to a runbook via the Initialize Data activity. I was going to answer the question there but thought it would be better to post an article to reach a broader audience. When dealing with published data on the databus, it's helpful to know exactly how multi-value data is produced and consumed so you can plan your runbooks accordingly. Actually, it's kind of simple once you understand it.
First of all, when I say multi-value data, the term refers to multiple occurrences of an activity's property or properties. You can think of this as a table, an array, or a collection, whatever suits you best. For example, if you ran the PowerShell command:
get-childitem C:\
You would get back a collection of objects, each with several properties. This is multi-value data. You can handle multi-value data in two ways: (1) You can leave it as it is in "collection" form (which is the default behavior), or you can (2) flatten it into a long string of delimited values (like a comma-delimited list).
The way you choose to handle multi-value affects the way the subsequent activities in the runbook are run. If you choose the default behavior, then the next activity will be run one time for each "row" in the data. If you choose to flatten the multi-value data, then the next activity only runs once, but usually you'll have to do your own parsing of the data to pull out relevant values.
Now here's the important part: multi-value data exists only in the activity that created it. Huh? What does that mean? It means that when an activity is triggered, it is triggered by a single instance of the data generated from an activity. Multi-value data in its true "collection" form is never sent to an activity. The next activity is triggered with a single value of that multi-value data. Therefore, the only way to pass in an entire collection of data is to have it flattened in some form first. There is no way to pass in an existing collection of multi-value data because every activity expects to receive a single item.
Your comment has been posted. Close

 - Which activities produce multi-value data? Doesnt appear to be documented. I noticed that using the Query WMI activity seems to produce flattened data with no delimiter, even if the query produces multiple results.

Fragment caching is used for caching various blocks within templates without caching the entire action as a whole. This is useful when certain elements of an action change frequently or depend on complicated state while other parts rarely change or can be shared amongst multiple parties. The caching is doing using the cache helper available in the Action View. A template with caching might look something like:
Hello <%= _USER_ %> <% cache do %> All the topics in the system: <%= render_collection_of_partials "topic", Topic.find_all %> <% end %>
This cache will bind to the name of action that called it. So you would be able to invalidate it using expire_fragment(:controller => "topics", :action => "list") — if that was the controller/action used. This is not too helpful if you need to cache multiple fragments per action or if the action itself is cached using caches_action. So instead we should qualify the name of the action used with something like:
<% cache(:action => "list", :action_suffix => "all_topics") do %>
That would result in a name such as "/topics/list/all_topics", which wouldn't conflict with any action cache and neither with another fragment using a different suffix. Note that the URL doesn't have to really exist or be callable. We're just using the url_for system to generate unique cache names that we can refer to later for expirations. The expiration call for this example would be expire_fragment(:controller => "topics", :action => "list", :action_suffix => "all_topics").
In order to use the fragment caching, you need to designate where the caches should be stored. This is done by assigning a fragment store of which there are four different kinds:
- FileStore: Keeps the fragments on disk in the cache_path, which works well for all types of environments and shares the fragments for all the web server processes running off the same application directory.
- MemoryStore: Keeps the fragments in memory, which is fine for WEBrick and for FCGI (if you don't care that each FCGI process holds its own fragment store). It's not suitable for CGI as the process is thrown away at the end of each request. It can potentially also take up a lot of memory since each process keeps all the caches in memory.
- DRbStore: Keeps the fragments in the memory of a separate, shared DRb process. This works for all environments and only keeps one cache around for all processes, but requires that you run and manage a separate DRb process.
- MemCacheStore: Works like DRbStore, but uses Danga's MemCache instead. Requires the ruby-memcache library: gem install ruby-memcache.
Configuration examples (MemoryStore is the default):
ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = :memory_store ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = :file_store, "/path/to/cache/directory" ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = :drb_store, "druby://localhost:9192" ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = :mem_cache_store, "localhost" ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = MyOwnStore.new("parameter")
One of the common ways of using fragment caching is to cache content that's shared across the site (eg. left navigation, menus, widgets etc.) that looks and works the same regardless of the name of the action or controller calling it. In such cases it's very easy to just use named fragment caching eg.:
<% cache('left_nav') do -%> <%= display_left_nav -%> <% end -%>

Blue Lake Rhino
One of the most unusual fossils ever found in the Columbia Plateau is a mold and a few bones of a small rhinoceros. In 1935, a group of hikers found it in a cavity in the vicinity of Blue Lake a few miles south of Dry Falls. This fossil is commonly known as the "Blue Lake Rhino". The mold is preserved in pillow basalt overlying a thin sand bed. Probably the rhino, which was dead at the time, was lying in a small pond and as molten lava flowed into the lake and became chilled somewhat so that the lava did not burn the rhino up. A mold was formed around the dead body. Professional paleontologists have made a coast from the mold and have reconstructed the rhino. Above see a model showing how the animal may have appeared prior to burial. The actual rhinoceros measured about eight feet from snout to tail.
