The Minister of Health, Jane Aceng has tabled the Uganda Human Organ Donation and Transplant Bill, 2021 for first reading. Aceng tabled the bill during the Tuesday plenary sitting chaired by Speaker Anita Among. The Bill was received and referred to the Committee on Health for scrutiny pursuant to Rule 129 of the Rules of Procedure.
The object of the Bill is to establish a legal framework for the regulation of organ, cell and tissue donation and transplantation in Uganda.
According to the Bill, Government aims at protecting the dignity and identity of every person and guarantee, without discrimination, respect for his or her integrity and other rights and fundamental freedoms with regard to donation and transplantation of organs, tissues and cells of human origin.
"Uganda does not have any law governing human organ donation and transplantation which is increasingly becoming an area of health care used to cure non communicable diseases that are rising rapidly. It is therefore imperative to enact an enabling law to address the existing challenges taking into account that healthcare is continuously evolving," the Bill reads.
The Bill seeks to address the current lacuna that is existent in both the law and the health care in Uganda in relation to organ, cell and tissue donation and transplant system. Due to the vacuum in the law, there has been concern about the increase in the illicit trade in and trafficking of human organs, cells and tissue.
"There is therefore need to regulate organ, cell and tissue donation and transplantation in order to enforce Principle XX of the National objectives and Directive Principles of the State Policy of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda which provides that the State shall take all practical measures to ensure the provision of basic medical services to the population. This will protect Ugandans from being potential victims of organ, cell and tissue trafficking," the Bill states.

Submarine cables and pipelines.
We will install submarine cables and water pipelines and construct seawater intakes and outfalls along the coastal areas of the UAE.
We can lay submarine pipelines and cables below the seabed level by either trenching or by horizontal directional drilling. We can also install precast concrete offshore intake heads for seawater intakes.
Typically the works for pipeline installation includes the following:-
Onshore welding of the pipeline strings, usually with butt-fusion welding machines. Then assembly of the pipeline weight collars onto the pipe with hydro-testing of the pipe strings.
The trenching works are normally carried out using barge mounted excavators or submersible trenchers, but in areas where it is required to have the pipeline much deeper below the seabed, the preferred method of installation is by Horizontal Directional Drilling. This is often required when the pipeline route Passes across:
Coral reef, mangroves, or other environmentally sensitive areas.
Busy shipping channels where marine construction works or ships anchors could damage the pipeline.
Areas where there is a future plan to deepen the waterway by dredging. The pipeline can be placed fare enough below the existing seabed level to allow for future dredging works.

What is EDID and How Will it Benefit Your KVM Setup?
For your display screen, TV or projector to show the best picture possible, it must be able to communicate its capabilities with the video source. EDID, or extended display identification data, is the data structure your display uses for this communication.
EDID includes information about the display's manufacturer, screen size, native resolution, color characteristics, frequency range limits and more. Once the source receives this information, it can then generate the necessary video characteristics to match the needs of the display. EDID is often used with a computer graphics card as the source device. Additionally, HDTV receivers, DVD and Blu-Ray players, LCD displays and digital TVs can read EDID and output the required video format.
Display Data Channel
EDID is transmitted between the source device and the display through a display data channel, or DDC, which is a collection of digital communication protocols created by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). With EDID providing the display information and DDC providing the physical link between the display and the source, the two accompanying standards enable a plug-and-play experience for information exchange between display and source. For EDID information to be available at the source, all your display device connections must support DDC—including your extenders, switches, cables, splitters, amplifiers, repeaters and converters. If one or more connections in the chain does not support DDC, the display could show the wrong colors, size or position, or it might show nothing at all.
3 Ways to Implement EDID with Your KVM Devices
KVM Extenders enable the transmission of video data over long distances, whereas KVM Switches provide connectivity between multiple sources and one set of screen and peripherals or vice versa. Both technologies act as a connection intermediary between one or multiple video sources and displays. Most of the latest digital KVM devices support EDID exchange, yet some analog VGA KVM devices may require special attention and if necessary additional help from EDID Ghosts (additional information below).
KVM devices supporting EDID management allow implementing it in one of three ways.
- The first is pass-through EDID, which involves transferring data directly from a source to the display. Pass-through EDID is often used in video and KVM extenders.
- A second type of EDID management is built-in EDID. In this scenario, the extender contains an internal EDID data table and can send data back to the source. It learns from the output device and can emulate it. This type is often used in AV/IT systems with single or multi-display configurations.
- The third EDID management method is EDID learning, in which the extender can capture data from a single attached display or compile data from all attached displays. EDID learning is ideal for configurations with multiple displays that don't share the same native resolution or aspect ratio.
How You'll Benefit from EDID
EDID is an important feature for your extenders because it:
- allows your computer to detect displays that are connected to it, enabling plug-and-play capabilities
- eliminates the need to manually configure displays
- reduces potential for incorrect settings that might compromise the quality of the display or the reliability of the system
- optimizes the display to the fullest capability of the video card
Copying EDID Information Across Extenders
Sometimes display problems occur because of signal strength issues, incorrect communication between the display and the source, or even missing EDID transmission support. To troubleshoot these situations, you can use an EDID Ghost. This unit enables copying, emulating, cloning and learning of EDID from a display. The EDID Ghost unit available from Black Box records and stores up to 15 different sets of EDID.

create a filter that limits the data to a sliding time window, such as the previous 5 days. You specify filters in Charts using an MQL Query Document. To specify a relative date query, you need to do a bit of arithmetic to create a new Date object based on the number of milliseconds relative to the current date, represented by Date(). To specify the last 5 days, use the following filter:
{ observationDate: {$gte: Date(Date() - 5 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)}}
After applying the filter, you can give your chart a title and we're done!
After saving the chart, you can resize it on your dashboard, and then start to create additional charts to give you even more insight into the weather in your city.
Another Example: Home Battery Data
I chose the Weather scenario for the main example in this article as it's easy to get working and something we can all relate to. However, in practice, you can probably get a lot of this info from weather websites. The real value is not so much in this one specific example but in the pattern and its implementation using the MongoDB platform.
No matter what your interests are, chances are there are APIs that return data that is of value to you, and you can use the same approach from the weather example to ingest and visualize this data. The following screenshot shows one I created to show the status and history of my home battery storage system. You can see the storage level over the last week, the current storage level and understand how the usage changes over the seasons.
Hopefully, this will give you some ideas on dashboards that you'd like to create. Have fun exploring and visualizing your data!

If both parents names are on your birth certificate and they are not married, can you carry both their surnames putting your father's first and mother's surname last on your ID card?
If you are applying for your first National ID card and your parents were unmarried at the time of your birth you can have both their surnames placed on your card as your surname, provided that you can show proof that either;
(1) you have used the name throughout your school life by way of a letter from the school or examination certificate (s) or
(2) show other form of ID such as a Passport.
However if you already are in possession of a valid National ID card under either parents surname but you wish to now carry both surnames on your ID, a Protocol of Deed or Deed Poll is required.

Fox School of Business at Temple University researchers outline why brands would be wise to include micro-influencers as part of their marketing strategy this holiday season
PHILADELPHIA — It's the holiday shopping season and by all accounts, it's going to be a big one. According to a recent OpenX Technologies report, consumers are expected to spend more than last year, and this is especially true for millennials. The report found that millennials plan to spend 15% more than the average shopper and 25% more than baby boomers.
So how are companies and brands supposed to break through the noise to reach these potential customers? Two Temple University Fox School of Business professors believe the answer could be micro-influencers.
"Micro-influencers bring credibility and authenticity," says Jay Sinha, associate professor of marketing and supply chain management. "The best ones bring in their own personal narratives that mesh well with the brands they endorse."
Together with Thomas Fung, assistant professor of marketing and supply chain management, Sinha recently authored the "Right Way to Market to Millennials," published in MIT Sloan's Management Review.
A micro-influencer is not Cardi B or Rihanna. Rather, they are defined as those that have a follower base numbering between 1,000 and 100,000. They're someone that a millennial can relate to, and that's what's been missing with traditional influencer marketing.
A recent study by Bazaarvoice noted that traditional influencer marketing is falling out of favor; 63% of online audiences noted that influencer content is materialistic and misrepresents real life. In comparison, micro-influencer marketing is just the opposite.
"They provide opportunities for companies, big and small, to reach out to narrow and often difficult-to-access subpopulations," Sinha says. "Micro-influencers have finessed the subtle 'nudge' into an art form."
According to Sinha and Fung, some of the more prominent brands using micro-influencers include Nike, Sephora, Levi, Microsoft and many others. That will remain the case this holiday season.
For instance, Zales Jewelers recently partnered with YouTube star Jaci Marie Smith and her husband, Leif Carlson, to create a "Holiday Love Story" across a number of social platforms. Similarly, clothing retailer H&M recently created the H&M League, a group of 22 influencers who have been promoting the brand for the year. Much of the content specifically revolved around key holiday dates like Black Friday and New Year's Eve.
"As department stores fight for relevance ahead of the start of the holiday shopping season, micro-influencers command a significant role in framing a new marketing narrative," Fung says. "Boomers might be okay with 'sea of sameness' product offerings, however, millennials thrive on an 'experience playground,' where micro-influencers become their lifestyle coaches."
This micro-influencing trend likely is not going anywhere anytime soon, either.
"Even though there are indications recently that 'influencer fatigue' has set in among millennials, they still remain open to those micro-influencers that have suasive power over them from their charisma and expertise in some niche market category," Sinha says.

The code and value together are unique, and a composite key is created containing them both.
We load in reference data from an excel spreadsheet, and at some point, there was a code and value pair added to a reference data type which matched exactly with a code and value pair from another reference data type. Attempting to add the second code value pair resulted in a unique key violation.
I needed to add the discriminator column into the composite key. If you're using auto mapping, you'll need to add an auto mapping override. Below is an example of creating a composite key containing the code, discriminator and value columns.

Wing For Business: How Wing Can Help Organize Your Business
In our previous post, 'How Wing Can Help Supply Your Business', we went over how Wing can save companies' valuable time. For example, tasks such as offloading sourcing office supplies, company swag, and food. Ultimately, this allows businesses to focus on their core operations because the jobs listed above are handed off to the AI virtual assistant – Wing. But, is there anything else Wing for Business can do? For example, maybe it could help perform research or help organize your business.
Organizing job applicants/candidates
Onboarding New Hires
Organizing lead generation in a spreadsheet
Beyond simple logistic tasks, Wing can also assist with sales functions. For instance, the beginning of the sales process usually involves hunting for potential customers. Also, you must organize these leads in a way that is easy to peruse and analyze.
Compiling Verification Letters
Lastly, you might run into a bureaucratic task that is low-impact, high priority. This means it brings no added value to your company whatsoever, yet it still necessary to do. For example, employees may have to verify their employment to third parties. This happens for all sorts of reasons, from visas to healthcare problems to signing a loan.
When that happens, you can offload this task to Wing.
Like the problem solved in 'How Wing Can Help Supply Your Business', offloading bureaucratic, and organizational tasks to Wing frees up time for businesses to focus on their core operations. Additionally, sometimes Wing can even help, such as with generating sales leads and entering them into a spreadsheet.

Cooking utensils are essential not just for the preparation of meals, but also play a major role in determining the taste and quality of our food. Ceramic cookware has gained popularity recently for its eco-friendly nature and excellent cooking abilities. One question that often comes up is whether or not you can boil water in ceramic cookware. This article explores the possibility of using ceramic cookware to boil water, including its benefits, drawbacks, and best practices.
Understanding Ceramic Cookware
Ceramic cookware refers to any cooking utensil made entirely from clay-based materials. These materials are usually reinforced with glaze to maximize their functionality. Ceramic cookware serves as an alternative material to traditional non-stick pans because they are free from toxic chemicals like PFOA and PFAS.
The benefits of ceramic cookware include:
- Non-stick qualities
- Easy to clean
- Scratch-resistant surface
- Durable and long-lasting
However, there are also some drawbacks associated with ceramic cookware:
- Poor thermal conductivity compared to metal utensils.
- May crack if rapidly exposed to cold water or drops on hard surfaces.
- Requires careful handling; exposing it more than recommended may lead to chipping.
Properties of Ceramic Cookware Essential for Boiling Water
For boiling water using ceramic cookware, two essential properties make the process possible.
Copper-based materials offer excellent thermal conductivity which enables them to distribute heat evenly across the utensil when boiling. Unlike metals, ceramics retain heat even after removal from the stove due to their dense molecular structure.
Thermal shock resistance
Thermal shock resistance determines how well temperature changes occur without damaging a material. Ceramics have lower thermal expansion rates than materials like aluminum making them less prone to breaking down under rapid temperature changes; this property makes them ideal for use in boiling water applications.
Can Ceramic Cookware Be Used To Boil Water?
Ceramic cookware is safe and effective for boiling water. Ceramic cookware can be used to boil water, as long as you use the right type of ceramic cookware. Boiling water in glass, metal, silicone, plastic or ceramic all have their advantages and limitations. Specific examples of various utensils includes:
- Glass: fragile when exposed to sudden temperature changes.
- Metal: excellent heat conductor but should not be used with acidic foods like tomato sauce as it causes reactivity.
- Silicone: useful due to their light weight but takes a longer time to heat up than other materials.
- Plastic: these are best suited for cold foods and beverages
When boiling with ceramic cookware like a kettle or pot, ensure that it's free from contaminants like dust or any porous substances before adding water. Also, avoid using baking soda or abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the surface.
Preparing Ceramic Cookware For Boiling Water
Cleaning the ceramic pot/kettle before boiling helps maintain its pristine condition and extend its lifespan. Start by washing your pot or kettle with warm water and soap then rinse it well allow it to dry adequately before using it again.
Inspect the cooking range area where you intend to place your ceramic cookware; check if there is any debris that could cause damage. If possible avoid placing your ceramics directly on a burner because this may lead to discoloration over time.
Techniques For Boiling Water With Ceramic Cookware
Different techniques can be employed when using ceramic cookware depending on size, shape, form as well as preferred method of preparation.
Stovetop boiling technique
Place the pot/kettle onto the stoveplate/heater and add an appropriate amount of water; about two-thirds full is recommended. Then turn up the stove's angular knob and wait until it boils. The heating rate depends on whether a gas cooker or an electric one will take varying times.
Microwave boiling technique
Microwave ovens are an option in case you intend to boil small quantities of water. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines while microwaving your ceramic cookware; avoid using metallic or powdered glazes with ceramics that can cause electrical shorts leading to fire damage.
Factors That Affect Heat Distribution In Ceramic Cookware When Boiling Water
The rate at which heat distributes from a ceramic utensil is based on two factors, that is, the size and shape of the pot/kettle, as well as its position on the heating/ cooking surface. The heating range should be aligned within the kettle/pot diameter limits to enhance effective transfer without causing contact abrasion.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I reheat my tea while it's sitting in a ceramic mug?
Yes! However, you should refrain from placing cold cups directly into hot water or vice versa; this reduces stress-induced cracking.
Will my clay teapot break if I boil water in it?
Clay teapots have excellent thermal construction properties but are vulnerable when placed under rapid temperature changes; instead of submerging them directly into boiling water try pouring pre-boiled hot water onto the leaves in your teapot. This approach ensures tea steeps more evenly and helps preserve the life of your teapot over time while still getting pure tea flavor.
Is a ceramic kettle good for boiling water?
Ceramic kettles use their superior thermal insulation properties to keep boiled water hot for longer durations than metal kettles. These are perfect utensils for those who want to enjoy their hot beverage drinks at their own pace.
In conclusion, boiling water using Ceramic cookware is safe provided the right precautions are taken into consideration. Whether preparing hot teas or frying pan sauces, ceramic pieces perform marvelously due to their unique characteristics like even heating distribution and high thermal shock resistance levels. With proper care and use, ceramic utensils will maintain their pristine condition for years to come.
Q1. Is it safe to boil water in ceramic cookware?
A: Yes, it is perfectly safe as long as the ceramic cookware is designed for stovetop use and can withstand high temperatures. However, some types of glazed ceramic cookware may contain lead or other harmful chemicals that can leach into your food. So, it's essential to choose lead-free and FDA-approved ceramic cookware for boiling water.
Q2. Can you use ceramic teapots to boil water?
A: Generally, it's not recommended to use ceramic teapots for boiling water on a stovetop because they are not designed to handle direct heat. The sudden change in temperature can cause the teapot to crack or even shatter, posing a safety hazard. Instead, you can use a kettle or a dedicated stovetop-safe ceramic pot for boiling water.
Q3. What precautions should I take when boiling water in ceramic cookware?
A: When using ceramic cookware for boiling water, make sure to fill the pot with enough water to prevent it from drying out and cracking. Also, avoid exposing the pot to sudden temperature changes by gradually increasing or decreasing the heat level. Lastly, always use oven mitts or potholders while handling hot ceramic cookware.
Q4. How do you clean ceramic cookware after boiling water?
A: It's easy to clean ceramic cookware after boiling water; simply let it cool down completely before washing it with warm soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbers that can damage the delicate surface of the ceramics. Additionally, don't stack the pots and pans on top of each other as they may scratch or chip one another.

How to Create and Interpret Pairs Plots in R
by Tutor Aspire
A pairs plot is a matrix of scatterplots that lets you understand the pairwise relationship between different variables in a dataset.
Fortunately it's easy to create a pairs plot in R by using the pairs() function. This tutorial provides several examples of how to use this function in practice.
Example 1: Pairs Plot of All Variables
The following code illustrates how to create a basic pairs plot for all variables in a data frame in R:
#make this example reproducible
set.seed(0)
#create data frame
var1 #create pairs plot
pairs(df)
The way to interpret the matrix is as follows:
 - The variable names are shown along the diagonals boxes.
 - All other boxes display a scatterplot of the relationship between each pairwise combination of variables. For example, the box in the top right corner of the matrix displays a scatterplot of values for var1 and var3. The box in the middle left displays a scatterplot of values for var1 and var2, and so on.
This single plot gives us an idea of the relationship between each pair of variables in our dataset. For example, var1 and var2 seem to be positively correlated while var1 and var3 seem to have little to no correlation.
Example 2: Pairs Plot of Specific Variables
The following code illustrates how to create a basic pairs plot for just the first two variables in a dataset:
#create pairs plot for var1 and var2 only
pairs(df[, 1:2])
Pairs plot of specific variables in R
Example 3: Modify the Aesthetics of a Pairs Plot
The following code illustrates how to modify the aesthetics of a pairs plot, including the title, the color, and the labels:
pairs(df,
 col = 'blue', #modify color
 labels = c('First', 'Second', 'Third'), #modify labels
 main = 'Custom Title') #modify title
Custom pairs plot in R
Example 4: Obtaining Correlations with ggpairs
You can also obtain the Pearson correlation coefficient between variables by using the ggpairs() function from the GGally library. The following code illustrates how to use this function:
#install necessary libraries
install.packages('ggplot2')
install.packages('GGally')
#load libraries

ggpairs(df)
ggpairs function in R example
The way to interpret this matrix is as follows:
 - The variable names are displayed on the outer edges of the matrix.
 - The boxes along the diagonals display the density plot for each variable.
 - The boxes in the lower left corner display the scatterplot between each variable.
 - The boxes in the upper right corner display the Pearson correlation coefficient between each variable. For example, the correlation between var1 and var2 is 0.425.
The benefit of using ggpairs() over the base R function pairs() is that you can obtain more information about the variables. Specifically, you can see the correlation coefficient between each pairwise combination of variables as well as a density plot for each individual variable.
You can find the complete documentation for the ggpairs() function here.

Settings and Measurement
Settings and Measurement Trigger Level Settings/Alarm Level Settings If the start side source setting or stop side source setting is "Level", specify detailed conditions for each channel. The overall structure of level triggers are as shown below. CH n Mode Level Pulse n Mode Level Combination Trigger Logic n Mode Pattern Comparison * Pulse and Logic are toggled back and forth. * The Logics 1 to 4 are fixed to pattern comparison. CH n Mode Level Pulse n Mode Level Or Alarm output n Logic n Mode Level * Pulse and Logic are toggled back and forth. * Specify an alarm output destination for Pulse and Logic for each channel. The conditions are ORed for each alarm output destination. Example) Suppose CH1 and CH2 are set to Output 1 and CH3 and CH4 to Output 2. If either CH1 or CH2 meets the conditions, Alarm Output 1 occurs. If either CH3 or CH4 meets the conditions, Alarm Output 2 occurs. Setting Description (1) Combination Sets the combination of trigger conditions set for each channel. Level OR : Starts (stops) capturing data when at least one trigger condition is met. Each condition is a level operation. Level AND : Starts (stops) capturing data when all trigger conditions are met. Each condition is a level operation. Edge OR : Starts (stops) capturing data when at least one trigger condition is met. Each condition is an edge operation. Edge AND : Starts (stops) capturing data when all trigger conditions are met. Each condition is an edge operation. (2) Mode Specifies the mode for trigger comparison for each channel. Off : Disables triggers for the set channel. ↑ H (Rising) : Generates a trigger when an input signal is above the specified level. ↓ L (Falling) : Generates a trigger when an input signal is below the specified level. Win In : Generates a trigger when an input signal is (has come) between the upper and lower limit levels set for each channel. * There is no setting for a logic channel. Win Out : Generates a trigger when an input signal is not (has moved out from) between the upper and lower limit levels set for each channel. * There is no setting for a logic channel. (3) Level Specifies the level for trigger comparison. Set one level for comparison if the mode is set to ↑ H (Rising) or ↓ L (Falling). Set two levels for comparison if the mode is set to Win In or Win Out. (4) Hold Generated Alarm Specifies the operation that occurs when the alarm conditions are met once and then are no longer met. Hold : Maintains the alarm status when the alarm conditions are met once and then are no longer met. (Press the CURSOR key to clear the alarm). Do Not Hold : Clears the alarm status when the alarm conditions are met once and then are no longer met. 3-31
Settings and Measurement About Level and Edge Operations In the level operation, the trigger conditions are assumed to be met only if they are met when the START key is pressed (after the timer reaches the set time). In the edge operation, the trigger conditions are assumed NOT to be met even if they are met when the START key is pressed (after the timer reaches the set time). The trigger conditions are assumed to be met only if they are no longer met and then are met again. Example) If the mode is Rising Trigger generation area The START key is pressed here. Measurement immediately starts in the level operation. An edge that exceeds the setting level is needed. Measurement starts here in the edge operation. Setting level CAUTION There is an error of ±1% at the maximum to the range between the trigger setting level and the level at which the trigger is actually generated (trigger generation level), e.g. ±0.01V in the 1V range. Approx. 1.3% of trigger hysteresis is provided to the trigger generation level. Approx. 0.5% of alarm hysteresis is provided. About the Trigger and Alarm Operations H : A trigger/alarm is generated when the signal input rises to (or exceeds) the specified level. Trigger (alarm) generated area Measurement starts (alarm generated) Set level CH.1 L : A trigger/alarm is generated when the signal input falls to (or falls below) the specified level. Trigger (alarm) generated area Measurement starts (alarm generated) Set level CH.1 Win In : Used to specify the upper and lower limits for each channel. When the signal level goes within (or is within) either limit, a trigger/alarm is generated. Trigger (alarm) generated area Measurement starts (alarm generated) Set upper level Set lower level CH.1 3-32

Discan is both a scale and a method in clinical psychology. As a scale, it is a type of ordered-metric scaling that yields a scale with internal reliability, and scale-points in excess of the number of initial anchors, more than would be the case with the Likert scale, though not as many as are achieved by the Analog scale.
For example, four descriptive anchor-levels yield 14 scale-points. In Louis Thurstone's tradition, it is scored by paired-comparisons. Seeking optimality, it is a compromise between the competing merits and demerits of the Likert scale and the Analog scale. Its use in clinical psychology derives from the influence of the late M.B. Shapiro.

 I need to "move" a field from the Deatil Section to the Group Section when the user exports to CSV.
 Here's why: When exporting to CSV and opening the document in Excel, every column present in he Group Section is repeated in every line of the CSV file, but the same does not happen to a grouping field that is within the Detail Section (unless it is the data of an unique register). Therefore, in order to make a field from Deatil Section repeat in every line, I have to "move" it to the Group Section when user exports to CSV.
 Is there anyway to perform such action?
 I'd appreciate any help.
 All the best.

 Hi Dias,
 There is no concept for grouping field in the detail section. In fact the behavior you observe is by design and duly noted in our documentation: Design Considerations for CSV Rendering. Namely:
 Group Header Section: Renders its content at the beginning of each detail row after the Report Header content if any.
 The detail section renders a record for each detail row on a new line and this behavior is expected. Note that the main purpose of the CSV format is to transfer data between different information systems (programs). For example you may import it in MS Excel or Word. For this reason the CSV format is not designed to be human-readable and is not "WYSIWYG" as Pdf, Html or Excel formats. More about the idea that lies behind the CSV format can be read here.
 In short, there is no way to "move" a field when exporting to a specific format, and if you need such functionality, our suggestion would be to create a second report with changed layout according to your needs, which would be used for exporting to excel.

What is Whistlewood all about?
Whistlewood is ten acres of community-owned land in Melbourne, South Derbyshire.
The site is designed along permaculture principles (a sustainable design framework) so that it will work for people, for wildlife and be a welcoming space for people of all ages and backgrounds.
We hold events and run workshops and provide educational opportunities that help people understand how to live more sustainably. Our rural ten acre site encourages an appreciation of nature and the outdoors, by being part of it, not just an outside observer. The site also hosts events that bring our community closer to make it a better place to live and help us face future challenges.
How did it come about?
In 2013 ten acres of land came up for sale in Melbourne in South Derbyshire. Members of the local Transition group wondered if it would be possible to do something really exciting with it. What if we could create a community woodland where everything was edible or otherwise useful for our community? And in the same space help people understand how to live more sustainably, appreciate nature and the outdoors, and hold events that would bring our community closer to face future challenges.
So, with the support of the National Forest Company, a co-operative society was formed and shares were sold to enable the land purchase to become a reality. Shares, from £50 upwards were sold to local people, but word spread and we gained supporters all around the world who were inspired by what we were doing.
Since purchasing the land we've gained planning permission for a range of structures, have formed working groups, planted trees, built structures, held events, welcomed children, and much more…
A solid business plan is behind everything we do and the project will be sustainable long-term, financially as well as environmentally.
People young and old love the site as somewhere they can feel relaxed and close to nature, and can be part of the solution, not the problem.


Cdi Datavolumes
CDI DataVolumes
Containerized Data Importer (or CDI for short), is a data import service for Kubernetes designed with KubeVirt in mind. Thanks to CDI, we can now enjoy the addition of DataVolumes, which greatly improve the workflow of managing KubeVirt and its storage.
What it does
DataVolumes are an abstraction of the Kubernetes resource, PVC (Persistent Volume Claim) and it also leverages other CDI features to ease the process of importing data into a Kubernetes cluster.
DataVolumes can be defined by themselves or embedded within a VirtualMachine resource definition, the first method can be used to orchestrate events based on the DataVolume status phases while the second eases the process of providing storage for a VM.
How does it work?
In this blog post, I'd like to focus on the second method, embedding the information within a VirtualMachine definition, which might seem like the most immediate benefit of this feature. Let's get started!
Environment description
 - OpenShift
 For testing DataVolumes, I've spawned a new OpenShift cluster, using dynamic provisioning for storage running OpenShift Cloud Storage (GlusterFS), so the Persistent Volumes (PVs for short) are created on-demand. Other than that, it's a regular OpenShift cluster, running with a single master (also used for infrastructure components) and two compute nodes.
 - CDI
 We also need CDI, of course, CDI can be deployed either together with KubeVirt or independently, the instructions can be found in the project's GitHub repo.
 - KubeVirt
 Last but not least, we'll need KubeVirt to run the VMs that will make use of the DataVolumes.
Enabling DataVolumes feature
As of this writing, DataVolumes have to be enabled through a feature gate, for KubeVirt, this is achieved by creating the kubevirt-config ConfigMap on the namespace where KubeVirt has been deployed, by default kube-system.
Let's create the ConfigMap with the following definition:
---
apiVersion: v1
data:
 feature-gates: DataVolumes
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
 name: kubevirt-config
 namespace: kube-system
$ oc create -f kubevirt-config-cm.yml
Alternatively, the following one-liner can also be used to achieve the same result:
$ oc create configmap kubevirt-config --from-literal feature-gates=DataVolumes -n kube-system
If the ConfigMap was already present on the system, just use oc edit to add the DataVolumes feature gate under the data field like the YAML above.
If everything went as expected, we should see the following log lines on the virt-controller pods:
level=info timestamp=2018-10-09T08:16:53.602400Z pos=application.go:173 component=virt-controller msg="DataVolume integration enabled"
NOTE: It's worth noting the values in the ConfigMap are not dynamic, in the sense that virt-controller and virt-api will need to be restarted, scaling their deployments down and back up again, just remember to scale it up to the same number of replicas they previously had.
Creating a VirtualMachine embedding a DataVolume
Now that the cluster is ready to use the feature, let's have a look at our VirtualMachine definition, which includes a DataVolume.
apiVersion: _URL_
kind: VirtualMachine
metadata:
 labels:
 _URL_ testvm1
 name: testvm1
spec:
 dataVolumeTemplates:
 - metadata:

 - dataVolume:

 - cloudInitNoCloud:

 #cloud-config

 - name: kubevirt

 shell: /bin/bash
 home: /home/kubevirt
 lock_passwd: false
 name: cloudinitvolume
The new addition to a regular VirtualMachine definition is the dataVolumeTemplates block, which will trigger the import of the CentOS-7 cloud image defined on the url field, storing it on a PV, the resulting DataVolume will be named centos7-dv, being referenced on the volumes section, it will serve as the boot disk (disk0) for our VirtualMachine.
Going ahead and applying the above manifest to our cluster results in the following set of events:
 - The DataVolume is created, triggering the creation of a PVC and therefore, using the dynamic provisioning configured on the cluster, a PV is provisioned to satisfy the needs of the PVC.
 - An importer pod is started, this pod is the one actually downloading the image defined in the url field and storing it on the provisioned PV.
 - Once the image has been downloaded and stored, the DataVolume status changes to Succeeded, from that point the virt launcher controller will go ahead and schedule the VirtualMachine.
Taking a look to the resources created after applying the VirtualMachine manifest, we can see the following:
$ oc get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
importer-centos7-dv-t9zx2 0/1 Completed 0 11m
virt-launcher-testvm1-cpt8n 1/1 Running 0 8m
Let's look at the importer pod logs to understand what it did:

ifelse {base}R Documentation
Conditional Element Selection
Description
ifelse returns a value with the same shape as test which is filled with elements selected from either yes or no depending on whether the element of test is TRUE or FALSE.
Usage
ifelse(test, yes, no)
Arguments
test
an object which can be coerced to logical mode.
yes
return values for true elements of test.
no
return values for false elements of test.
Details
If yes or no are too short, their elements are recycled. yes will be evaluated if and only if any element of test is true, and analogously for no.
Missing values in test give missing values in the result.
Value
A vector of the same length and attributes (including dimensions and "class") as test and data values from the values of yes or no. The mode of the answer will be coerced from logical to accommodate first any values taken from yes and then any values taken from no.
Warning
The mode of the result may depend on the value of test (see the examples), and the class attribute (see oldClass) of the result is taken from test and may be inappropriate for the values selected from yes and no.
Sometimes it is better to use a construction such as
 (tmp <- yes; tmp[!test] <- no[!test]; tmp)
, possibly extended to handle missing values in test.
Further note that if(test) yes else no is much more efficient and often much preferable to ifelse(test, yes, no) whenever test is a simple true/false result, i.e., when length(test) == 1.
The srcref attribute of functions is handled specially: if test is a simple true result and yes evaluates to a function with srcref attribute, ifelse returns yes including its attribute (the same applies to a false test and no argument). This functionality is only for backwards compatibility, the form if(test) yes else no should be used whenever yes and no are functions.

y <- ifelse(as.POSIXlt(x)$mday == 29, x, NA)
head(y) # not what you expected ... ==> need restore the class attribute:
class(y) <- class(x)
y
## This is a (not atypical) case where it is better *not* to use ifelse(),
## but rather the more efficient and still clear:
y2 <- x
y2[as.POSIXlt(x)$mday != 29] <- NA
## which gives the same as ifelse()+class() hack:
stopifnot(identical(y2, y))
## example of different return modes (and 'test' alone determining length):
yes <- 1:3
no <- pi^(1:4)
utils::str( ifelse(NA, yes, no) ) # logical, length 1
utils::str( ifelse(TRUE, yes, no) ) # integer, length 1

Lecture on Dragons
Lecture on Dragons (sometimes known as Essay on Dragons) is an unpublished lecture by J.R.R. Tolkien. Extracts have been published in Leaves from the Tree (1991), in J.R.R. Tolkien: Artist and Illustrator (1995) and in The J.R.R. Tolkien Companion and Guide (2006).
The lecture was originally given on 1 January 1938 to children at the University of Oxford Museum. Tolkien describred two kind of dragons, "'creeping' and 'winged' but, in general, large, deadly, coiling serpent-creatures."

Beijing, Mar 2 (IANS/EFE) Authorities in the central Chinese province of Henan inaugurated a road that is designed to play music as vehicles pass over it, the media said.
Hundreds of narrow ribbons are arrayed across a 300-meter stretch of the road in such as way as to play a tune as vehicles pass.
The vehicles must be travelling at a minimum speed of 40 kph to correctly sound the notes.
The road, located inside the Changge nature reserve, plays either the Chinese national anthem or the traditional favourite "Molihua" (Jasmine), depending on which direction the vehicles are moving.
It is China's first musical road, though similar thoroughfares exist in Japan, South Korea and Denmark, where the idea of turning a road into a musical instrument originated in 1994.
The Danes who built the first tuneful road dubbed it the "asphaltophone".
California once had its own musical road, but authorities had to repave it after area residents complained about constant noise as some drivers were driving back and forth just to make the song play.

Although it seems obvious, hot tubs and their connection to stress reduction and relaxation are extremely valuable. On top of the physical benefits regularly soaking in a hot tub, there is a mental and emotional benefit to it as well.
Stress is a common and dangerous health issue in the US that affects close relationships, sleep, mental health, weight, and overall well-being. Whether work is your source of stress or if it's the demands of modern life everyone deserves a break, including you.
You can incorporate hot tub sessions into your mornings to start the day off right or the evenings to wind down. Adding a soak in a hot tub to your daily life would be a life-changer.
You can face a stressful day head-on knowing that it will end with you soaking in a hot tub.
Stress and anxiety can be managed with a proper diet, regular exercise, and proper sleep but another aspect to anxiety relief is time spent simply enjoying a moment of quiet.
2. Promotes Quality Sleep
Insomnia is a common struggle for Americans that links to depression, anxiety, weight gain, high blood sugar, the list goes on and on. When you're not getting enough sleep you can begin to stress over getting sleep which, in turn, makes you sleep even less.
Because sleep disorders can be difficult to treat on your own it can be discouraging and exhausting to try and find ways to finally get some rest. Supplements, medications, and sleep podcasts could help but have you considered soaking in a hot tub before bed?
Using a hot tub daily promotes stress relief as we know, but that ties into getting quality sleep as well. Studies on hot tubs and their connection to sleep showed that using a hot tub before bed leads to deep, restful sleep.
Having a nighttime sleep ritual to signal to your brain and body that its time for sleep and ending it with a nice soak in the hot tub sounds like the perfect thing to do to keep your nerves away.
3. Self-Care
When you're busy, it is easy to get stuck on auto-pilot. Life moves fast and time never stops, it can be easy to overlook your needs and it can be difficult to prioritize yourself.
Self-care and self-love are necessary for all people. By assuring that we take little moments of our hectic days to check in with ourselves will assure that we can handle any amount of stress that comes our way.
Taking care of our emotional and mental well-being results in resiliency and strength when things don't go our way. Having a hot tub in your home is a sure-fire way to ensure that you will set aside some quality time to be with yourself.
By taking care of yourself first and foremost, you will signal to others around you that your time is valuable and your needs are important. Self-care can also increase confidence and self-esteem.
4. Spa Treatment at Home
By having a hot tub in your home, you no longer have to fantasize about vacation destinations during your 9-5. The vacation destination is your home!
Make it a complete experience by buying yourself a proper robe and slippers, putting on some relaxing music, and getting some waterside snacks and drinks.
You can even invite guests over and make an event out of it. Installing a hot tub will make your home a sanctuary for you, your family, and your friends!
5. Hot Tubs Can Be Enjoyed in Every Season
Unlike pools, that can only be enjoyed in the summer and spring (depending on the climate), hot tubs can be enjoyed whatever the weather!
Hot tubs also give you the perfect reason to spend some time outside in Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter ❄. You can enjoy a sunrise, sunset, or a starry night from the comfort of your hot tub.
6. Recover From Muscle and Joint Injuries
When you're in a hot tub you are buoyant, meaning that you have less stress on your muscles and joints which leads to recovery. The temperature of the water helps relieve pain.
The hot water also increases circulation in the body which leads to a decrease in inflammation and an increase in joint mobility for up to hours after you get out of the tub. Regular soaks in the hot tub also decrease muscle spasms and it's a great way to recover after a hard work out.
If you have arthritis, hot tubs can also be helpful to provide a gentle place at home to do exercises for your joints. Water exercises are pain-free and they increase flexibility and strength without the pressure on your joints.
A bonus is that hot tubs can also aid in the relief of headaches by dilating the blood vessels. The pressure that builds up in the head during a migraine or a headache can be decreased because of the dilated vessels alongside the general comfort and warmth the hot tub provides.
Get a Hot Tub and Increase Your Quality of Life
The list above is only scratching the surface of what having a hot tub in your home can bring to your life.
Other than providing mental, physical, and emotional benefits, hot tubs also are less wasteful than taking hot baths at home. Hot tubs don't need to be refilled every day unlike warm baths, that's why proper maintenance is of utmost importance if you do decide to invest in one.

Initial Posy Ring in 14K White Gold or Your Choice of Color
- Gold Posy Ring Delivery
- What's a Posy?
- Reviews (0)
Make a custom posy wedding ring your own with your choice of initials or name on the ring. This ring is exclusive to Crystal Realm, and we first made it for a couple who wanted a ring with Polish lettering. After careful deliberation over the choices Mandira provided, they chose lettering in a Gaelic font on a ring decorated with a Russian motif between every two instances of letters.
You may have:
1. Three initials inscribed twice around the outside
2. Two intials inscribed three times around the outside
3. Your three initials and your beloved's three initials on the outside of the ring
4. A five letter name followed by a heart (or other symbol) around the outside of the ring (you may add a comment in the comment field when you check out)
5. A six letter name around the outside of the ring
This ring is 6mm wide, and it is available in quarter, half, and whole sizes from 4 to 12.5. It is approximately 2mm thick, meaning it is a very substantial ring. Choose from 14K white gold, shown, 14K yellow gold or 14K rose gold. 18K or platinum is available upon request.
Priced singly. Order two for a pair (choosing one size at a time and placing it in your basket).
Made exclusively by Crystal Realm in the U.S. by the time-honored lost-wax casting method.
Your gold poesy ring(s) will be hand-made to your order and will ship in four to five weeks.
Whether spelled posie, poesy, posey, or posy, the word is pronounced 'posy' and refers to a ring that was popular during medieval and Renaissance times as a gift from lover to beloved. Quotations from courtship stories were inscribed, usually on the inside, but sometimes on the outside of the ring. Shakespeare popularized the rings by mentioning them in several of his plays. In Hamlet, 'Is this a prologue or the posy of a ring?'
From the British Museum: By 1430 love rings engraved with inscriptions were known as 'posies' (from 'poesy' or poetry). In the 13th and 14th centuries the language of the posy was usually French, but from the 15th century English became increasingly common. Rings were given on many occasions. They often seem to have been declarations of love, rather than formal betrothal or marriage rings.
Another quote from the British Museum: This ring is known as a posy ring, deriving from the French 'poesie ' (poetry). Posy rings were plain hoops inscribed with mottoes or saying, that might express sentiments of faith, commemoration, friendship and love. It was an especially popular type of ring in the fifteenth century. The romantic inscriptions on posy rings suggest that they were also used for weddings.


Execution Slots
Execution slots are an advanced feature in kenaflow.
They can be used to execute workflows on different levels or "execution lanes" so that they work on distributed execution venues.
Workflows in kenaflow are executed in parallel. For this purpose sub processes are executed. Each sub process executes one workflow. All workflows are in a common queue. The maximum number of parallel executions is defined in the global configuration.
Please read this article for the details.
Workflows usually have a "TBE" time: Time Between Execution. This specifies how many seconds must elapse between two starts of the workflow before it is executed again. The specification of the "TBE" is a "minimum" specification. There is no guarantee that the workflow will restart after this time, since other workflows may be scheduled in the queue beforehand.
If it is now necessary for certain workflows to have a highly probable execution lane in the specified time, then execution slots can be used.
An analogy: Imagine a 5-lane highway. Each highway lane is a kenaflow execution lane. Slow workflows can prevent the fast ones from getting past them when the slow ones are allowed to occupy all lanes. Execution Slots can be used to specify that certain workflows are to be defined for certain lanes. Slot "0" (zero) accepts all non-configured workflows.
Any slots can be defined via the global configuration. This is configured in the "slots" setting in the "Main Mode" section. A list of slots is created here by specifying how many execution venues are provided per slot.
For example, if you have this settings in global configuration:

 2;3
...than you have configured 10 execution lanes ("parallelWFExecutors"). And you have configured 3 slots: Slot #1 with 2 execution laness, Slot #2 with 3 execution lanes - and Slot #0 (default slot) with the rest of 4 execution lanes (10 - 2 - 3 = 7).
In the workflow configuration (missing) you can specify on which slot the workflow should run. All workflows that are configured for a certain slot will share all execution lanes that are assigned to the slot.

Modeling Constant Velocity Joints - Power Take-Off Shaft
This example shows a Power Take-Off (PTO) shaft, a device for transferring power from tractor engines to auxiliary equipment such as soil tillers and wood chippers. The model includes two PTO subsystems identical in every sense but their joints. One contains universal (U) joints, the other constant-velocity (CV) joints.
At large bend angles, U joints lead to uneven rotations, subjecting the adjoining shafts to relatively large vibrations and elevated internal stresses. CV joints eliminate these by allowing the shafts to spin at constant velocity, resulting in a smooth motion profile no matter the bend angle.
A single set of motion inputs governs the behavior of the PTO subsystems. The Scope block plots the resulting angular velocities and bend angles of the shafts, enabling you to compare the kinematics of the two joint types.

Before you can manage devices in Security Manager, you must prepare the devices so that communication between Security Manager and the devices is enabled, then add those devices to the Security Manager inventory.
This chapter contains the following topics:
Troubleshooting Device Communication Failures
If Security Manager fails to communicate with a device, e.g. by failing to log into it, during discovery, deployment, or other actions, look at these areas to identify and resolve the problem.
- Ensure the device is operational.
- Check which transport protocol is selected. You must select a protocol that the device is configured to accept. For most devices, the protocol is selected on the Device Properties General page. For IPS devices, the IPS RDEP mode is selected on the Credentials page.
Some methods of adding devices also allow you to select a non-default transport protocol. To configure the default transport protocols for classes of devices, select Tools > Security Manager Administration > Device Communications.
- On the Device Properties General page, ensure that the hostname, domain name, and IP address are correct. Keep in mind that the Hostname and Accounts and Credentials policies for the device define the actual names and credentials that get configured on the device. However, the policies are not used for device communication. If you make changes to the policies that affect the credentials you are using for device communication, you must also manually update the device properties.
- Make sure DNS names can be resolved from the Security Manager server. You might need to fix the DNS settings on the server.
- Check the credentials for the device in Security Manager and ensure that they are correct and that there is a route between the server and device. Right-click the device, select Device Properties, select the Credentials tab, and click the Test Connectivity button. If the connection fails, check error messages to determine whether the problem is connectivity or credentials. Update the credentials in the device properties if necessary.
When adding new devices the credentials are defined within the New Device wizard if your method of adding the device requires credentials. Keep the following in mind:
– The primary credentials are used for SSH and Telnet connections.
– The HTTP/HTTPS credentials are used for HTTP and SSL connections unless you select Use Primary Credentials, in which case the primary credentials are also used for these connections.
FAQs About Device Communication
This section answers the following questions about device communication:
Q. How does Security Manager connect to a Cisco IOS router that does not have a K8 or K9 crypto image?
By default, Security Manager connects to Cisco IOS routers using SSL. However, a device running IOS version 12.3 or later without a K8 or K9 crypto image will not be able to support SSL. Therefore, after you add the device to Security Manager, you must select Tools > Device Properties, then change the default transport protocol to Telnet.
Q. Why cannot Security Manager connect to a Cisco IOS router after configuration rollback?
This could occur because of one of the following reasons:
– At rollback, for some versions of Cisco IOS software and when necessary, the configurations are copied from the TFTP server to startup-config, then the Cisco IOS router is reloaded. This reload causes a temporary loss in device connectivity. Wait for the device to be reloaded completely, then try to connect to it again.
– The configuration contains a nonexisting or unauthorized username and password.
Security Certificate Rejected When Discovering Device
If an error occurs when you attempt to discover a device, and the error message states that the security certificate received from the device was rejected, you need to update the certificate. You can do this using one of the following methods:
- Manually enter the thumbprint required by the certificate by doing one of the following:
– Select Tools > Security Manager Administration > Device Communication. Click Add Certificate, enter the IP address of the device, then copy and paste the thumbprint displayed in the error message into the Certificate Thumbprint field.
– Right-click the device and select Device Properties > Credentials. Copy and paste the thumbprint displayed in the error message into the Authentication Certificate Thumbprint field.
You must manually enter the thumbprint whenever you add a new device using the Add New Device or Add From Configuration File options and when you perform rediscovery. It is not required when you add a new device using the Add New Device From Network or Add Device From File options.
- Configure the SSL certificate settings to automatically retrieve the certificate when adding devices. You can select different settings for IPS, router, and ASA/PIX/FWSM devices. To configure these settings, select Tools > Security Manager Administration > Device Communication, and look at the SSL Certificate Parameters group.
Invalid Certificate Error During Device Discovery
Problem If the time settings on the device and Security Manager are not in synchronization, an error message is displayed stating that the certificate is not yet valid when you try to discover a device.
Solution When the time set on the Security Manager server is lagging behind the time set on the device, Security Manager cannot validate the device certificate as the start time of the validity period is ahead of the Security Manager time setting. Even if the time zones configured on the device and Security Manager are the same, the invalid certificate error occurs if the daylight saving time (summertime) settings are different. To resolve this problem, make sure that the daylight saving time settings are the same on the device and Security Manager, regardless of whether the time zone is the same. After setting the daylight saving time, synchronize the clock on the device with Security Manager so that both of them display the same time.
To obtain best results, we recommend that you set the same time zone on the device and Security Manager, and modify the time zone after you discover the certificates at a later time, if necessary.
Deleting Configuration File When Deleting Security Context
Problem Deleting a security context from an FWSM device in Security Manager removes the security context from the running configuration of the device, but it does not delete the associated configuration file. This can create problems if you later add another security context with the same name as the one that you previously deleted.
Solution This is a known issue for this type of device and is not connected to the behavior of Security Manager. The workaround is to use the CLI to delete the configuration file from the device.
Simultaneous Operations on the Same Device
Problem Simultaneous operations performed on the same device (that is, devices with the same IP address) produce inconsistent results. For example, deployment to the first device succeeds, but deployment to the second device fails. These simultaneous operations may be a combination of jobs executed by Security Manager, such as a deployment job, and user-initiated operations, such as discovering a live device. Problems can occur whether the operations are contained in the same job or in multiple jobs that are executed at the same time.
Solution The device locking mechanism in Security Manager is based on the device name, not the IP address. As a result, operations such as discovery and deployment can run into problems if two devices share the same IP address. This is especially true if you attempt one of these operations on both devices at the same time.
For example, if a deployment job contains two devices with the same IP address, deployment will be executed to both devices because the names are different. However, doing so is not recommended, as it might result in an incomplete or failed deployment. To ensure consistent results, we recommend against defining more than one device with the same IP address.
Troubleshooting the Setup of Configuration Engine-Managed Devices
The following topics describe issues that might arise when you set up a device managed by a Cisco Configuration Engine (also known as CNS) and how to solve them:
Q. Why does Configuration Engine deployment fail?
Not all versions of Configuration Engine function in a compatible manner. Because Security Manager does not verify the software version running on a Configuration Engine when you add it to the device inventory, you can add unsupported versions to the inventory. Then, when you try to deploy, you can run into unpredictable errors. Ensure that you are running a supported version of Configuration Engine, such as 3.0. For support information, see the supported devices information at _URL_
Q. Why do I receive an InvalidParameterException when I click on an IOS device on the Configuration Engine web page?
This is the expected behavior. For IOS devices, Security Manager uses deployment jobs to deploy configurations to Configuration Engine instead of associating a configuration to the IOS device in Configuration Engine. Therefore, you do not see an associated configuration when you click the device name on the Configuration Engine web page. For PIX devices, Security Manager associates the configuration to the device in Configuration Engine. Therefore, clicking the device name displays the associated configuration.
Q. Why am I getting the following error: com.cisco.netmgmt.ce.websvc.exec.ExecServiceException: [002-01003]]deviceName does not exists?
This error indicates that the device has not been added to Configuration Engine. It appears if you have not performed rollback or deployment in Security Manager (both of which add the device automatically), and have not manually added the device to Configuration Engine.
Q. Why am I getting the following error: com.cisco.netmgmt.ce.websvc.config.ConfigServiceException: [002-01003]]Device device id is not connected
The answer depends on the type of setup you are performing:
– Event mode setup—Make sure that the Configuration Engine device ID defined in the Device Properties window in Security Manager matches the device ID configured on the router (using the cns id string command).
– Call home mode setup—The device is not connected to Configuration Engine in this mode; therefore, all Security Manager operations that require the retrieval of the device configuration using Configuration Engine are not supported. This includes discovery, preview configuration, display running configuration, and connectivity tests (and rollback, for IOS devices).
Q


This short tutorial will show you how to use a quick WHERE statement to filter your records so it only shows whilst the date column in the table is either greater or equal to the current day. Create your Recordset as normal.
For the WHERE statement, use the below text, to show your records whilst the date column is greater or equal then the current day.
Change table to your table name and column to the column which contains your records date.
Using Access
WHERE (((table.column)>=Date()))
Using SQL server 2000
WHERE (((table.Column)>=getdate()))
If you are using Dreamweaver MX, you will need to change the Recordset to the Advanced view, and alter the WHERE statement to the text above

3 Ways Pessimism is an Asset in PR
Does pessimism have a place in PR?
Half empty or half full?
An article recently published over at the MIT Sloan Management Review blog caught my attention. Essentially, the article asserted that in a world where optimism reigns, a little pessimism is a good thing.
In our culture, pessimism is generally perceived as a state of mind where one anticipates negative outcomes. We often classify individuals as either optimistic or pessimistic based on the age old question, "Is the glass half empty or half full?" We tend to classify those who answer "half empty" as stewards of a pessimistic outlook, always focusing on the negative and what's likely to go wrong.
Despite the stigma that pessimism has, can it be interpreted as an undervalued asset and a valuable tool in PR? Continue reading
