ENDANGERED water voles have been spotted at Delamere Forest after decades of decline, thanks to the Forestry Commission.
Water vole numbers have dramatically reduced over the past 30 years, by up to 90% across the country, largely due to changes in land use and the introduction of the American mink which prey on the tiny mammals.
Now they are making a comeback at Delamere where Forestry Commission rangers have spotted droppings – a good sign that populations are moving back into the area.
Adrienne Bennett, Forestry Commission ecologist covering Cheshire, is planning to survey the area and other appropriate habitats at Forestry Commission sites across the North West to confirm that water voles are living there.
She said: "They are quite resilient creatures but there have been so many factors stacked against them that have had a dramatic impact.
"Surveys will begin this spring and can be as simple as walking the waterways to spot them, or hiding small 'rafts' in the reeds that attract water voles to deposit their droppings."
Adrienne said it is difficult to determine exact numbers, but once water voles are confirmed there are steps they can take to help them thrive, such as improving the banks of ponds or streams for burrowing and monitoring for mink in the area.
They may also work with environmental and wildlife organisations that manage adjacent sites to link habitats and help populations spread.
Water voles have been returning to Forestry Commission sites across the North West over the past few years.
Forestry Commission ranger Adam Evans said: "It is positive news that water voles are returning. If we can identify suitable habitats and open up corridors for water voles to populate them, they could flourish again."

Clyde Windfarm
Clyde is the largest wind farm in the UK and CDTS were contracted by Blackwells to hydroseed over 1 million m2 of special moorland grasses.
Hydroseeding was used to restore the soil disturbed by the installation of the turbinesand the areas adjacent to the access tracks. Due to the environmentally sensitive nature of the site, a site specific seed mix was formulated based on the local species found in the vicinity of the wind farm. The mix contained Heathers, Bilberries and moorland grasses like Cotton Grass.
CDTS carried out the hydroseeding using their largest hydroseeder a 6000lt, self propelled, four wheel drive unit, which was ideally suited to the conditions due to its ability to manoeuvre around site safely and hydroseed up to 30,000m2 per day. This contract has been successfully completed.


How to find out that "/nvdli-nano" is the name of the directory in the docker container?
Hi guys, I am currently going through the DLI Course and when mounting a directory to the docker container using volume command we set the path of the container as "/nvdli-nano". My question is how do we find this out?
I'm sorry if the question may seem a little noobish, I'm quite new to docker.
--volume ~/nvdli-data:/nvdli-nano/data
Hi, this argument to docker run means that your user's ~/nvdli-data folder on your device (outside of container) will be mounted into the container and appear at /nvdli-nano/data (inside the container)
The /nvdli-nano path inside the container is where the notebooks reside and was how the container was setup. So knowing that path requires knowledge of how the container was built. Or you can typically launch a container and just look around for the different folders.

Validation of Water Quality Data Measured Using Automatic Monitoring Sensor in Lake Shinji and Lake Nakaumi
d0070010l010.pdf 285 KB
Data on water quality of Lake Shinji and Lake Nakaumi were obtained at one hour intervals using an automatic water quality monitoring device provided by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, Government of Japan. Out of the various parameters measured, the data on water temperature, salinity and chlorophyll-a were validated by comparing with the field data obtained through in situ measurements during _PHONE_. The difference between the automatically measured sensor data and the field data was estimated by comparing these data without considering the vertical variations. The results show that the difference between the two datasets of water temperature is 0.0±0.4℃ in Lake Shinji and -0.2±0.2℃ in Lake Nakaumi, that of salinity is 0.2±0.1 psu in Lake Shinji and 0.0±0.3 psu in Lake Nakaumi and that of chlorophyll-a is 0.3±2.1 mg/m^3 in Lake Nakaumi(excluding the middle layer value).

As I iterate through the rows of a mysql table, there are 2 values in each table (x,y) that I need to see what interval those two values fall between.
For example if x=-21.1 and y=52.4, x would be in the -30..-20 interval and y would be in the 50..60 interval.
So based on these intervals, I would have a hash or something containing that interval combination (-30..-20 and 50..60) and increment it by one. Then I would go through the rest of the rows in the mysql table and do the same so I have a count of all occurances of the interval combinations.
There will be 36X36 combinations (interval -180..180, divided in 10s). I think this is supposed to be done by using multidimensional hashes, but I'm not sure. Can anyone help me out?

Visual representation of the *horizon* colormap. Statistics of the *horizon* colormap.
The horizon colormap is a visual representation of the horizon, from the green colors of the land to the calm colors of the clouds. It covers the \([20, 100]\) lightness range and has the colors green and blue as its main colors. Similarly to ocean, this colormap is great for representing background information. Also note that, like ocean, horizon does not start at \(0\) lightness.

white el·e·phant [noun] a possession that is useless or troublesome, especially one that is expensive to maintain or difficult to dispose of.
Gifts are typically inexpensive, humorous items or used items from home. The term white elephant refers to a gift whose maintenance costs exceed its usefulness. While the first use of this term remains a matter of contention among historians, one theory suggests that Ezra Cornell brought the term into the popular lexicon through his frequent social gatherings as early as 1828.
Quite simple, bring something to re-gift, is a gag, or might be coveted and useful. It is nice to have a variety of gifts to steal from. Make sure it is wrapped. Don't hint as to what it is, and there is no high or low limit to worth for the exchange – whatever works.
In its most basic form, the game is as follows:
- Each participant supplies one wrapped gift. The gifts are placed in a central location, and everyone takes a random number to determine to order of gift choosing.
- The first person opens a wrapped gift, and the turn ends.
- On subsequent turns, each person can open a new present OR gets the choice to "steal" another person's gift.
- The gift cannot be stolen once the third participant touches the gift (i.e. – it is stolen for the 2nd time). When a person's gift is stolen, that person can either choose another wrapped gift to open or can steal from another player.
- The game is over when the last person goes and the first person goes again (BUT see variations below).
- Only two steals of a gift can happen and it becomes frozen.
- No gift may be stolen more than once per turn, so NO STEAL BACKS per turn – a new item must be stolen or unwrapped.
- Since the first player is the only one without the option of seeing any unwrapped gifts, s/he will take one final turn after all gifts have been opened and swap with any "unfrozen" gift.

In support of CAR related research, a CAR data processing system was designed and implemented by the Cloud Retrieval Group at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in early 1995. The purpose of the processing system is to ingest CAR raw digital counts and engineering data, and produce calibrated radiances in Hierarchical Data Format (HDF). To complement CAR radiometric data, a set of carefully selected C-131A or CV-580 navigation data and in situ cloud microphysics measurements are included in the CAR HDF data set. The end product is a self-contained, self-describing, and information-rich data set.

Tooltips in my application can be quite long, therefore I'd like them to have line breaks.
I don't want to use html as I'd prefer to set a (max) width of my tooltips instead and have the line breaks dynamically.
In the accepted answer the this similar question Multi-line tooltips in Java? I read about JMultiLineToolTip. Unfortunately the provided link doesn't work anymore and there are many different JMultiLineToolTip out there. Therefore my two questions:
 1. Which JMultiLineToolTip is a good one to use?
 2. How can I use such a class to represent all of the tooltips in my application?
EDIT: as everyone seems to recommend the use of html, is there a way to define the width of my tooltip in pixels (or some other unit than number of characters) using html?

If you are not afraid of extending swing tool tip, you can create your own JMultiLineToolTip:
 1. Extend JTooltip In the extended Tool tip component implementation,
 2. set a custom tool tip UI In customUI implementation
 3. Implementpaint() method to write given string in multi line
Here is an example - it shows how to use it as well
However, to answer your questions:
 1. Which JMultiLineToolTip is a good one to use?
 Use
 Per compopnent, it is easy but tedious to achieve as you will have to override creatreToolTip() API. But if you want to change it globally, you may:
 (i)Simple way - Register your custom tooltip UI with the UIManager at the beginning of your execution.
 UIManager.put( "ToolTipUI", "SeNormToolTipUI" );
 UIManager.put( "SeNormToolTipUI",Class.forName( multiLineToolTipUIClassName ) );
 (ii) complex way
 You will have to start implementing your own look and feel. In the look and feel implementation, you would provide defaults for ToolTipUI as your UI implementation and then set that look and feel to the application you are running. For instance take a look at the MetalLookAndFeel implementation. You may just extend that part and implement your on lnf.
So, it is better to use

1) Html is easiest of ways for plain JToolTip
2) use JWindow(un_decorated JDialog) with JTextArea, better would be JTextPane (supporting stylled text),
 - the disadvantage is you have to manually set window to the Point, you have to manually set for setInitialDelay and setDismissDelay (Swing Timer), setVisible(true/false)
 - the advantage is that you using full manageable top level container with definitions for own parent
3) I use JLabel with Html formatted and stylled text added to the GlassPane, notice easiest alternative is use non_opaque JLayeredPane (Java6) or JLayer (Java7)

Effective nonverbal communication between patients and clinicians fosters both the delivery of empathic patient-centered care and positive patient outcomes. However, few efforts to develop tools for enhancing clinician communication have focused on nonverbal aspects of the clinical encounter. We describe a novel system that both uses social signal processing technology (SSP) to capture nonverbal cues in real time and displays ambient visual feedback on control and affiliation---two primary, yet distinct dimensions of interpersonal nonverbal communication. To explore clinicians' acceptance of and reaction to an ambient visual feedback from such a system, we conducted a Wizard-of-Oz lab study to simulate system use with 16 healthcare professionals. We further followed up with 7 of those participants and iterated on the design with a new visualization. Our results indicate that reflective visual feedback on nonverbal communication provides an acceptable way to provide clinicians with awareness of their nonverbal communication. Furthermore, we discuss implications for the design of visual feedback to encourage empathic patient-centered communication.

When planning an insulation retrofit for an existing masonry building, it is important to analyze the freeze/thaw durability of the masonry units. The critical freeze/thaw saturation value is an important measure of durability, and frost dilatometry is an effective method of determining this value. This study reports developments in the field sampling of masonry units and critical saturation testing of in-service masonry.
The challenge when sampling masonry is to ensure that selected units are representative of the entire building or capture the range of material properties of units on the building. Two approaches to sampling are explored. Bulk sampling involves the removal of a large number of samples with the goal of randomly capturing the range of units of interest. Alternatively, field testing of a relevant material property can be performed to identify units that capture the range of material on the façade. A nondestructive field drying rate measurement technique is presented along with pilot study results suggesting it could completely replace the need for bulk sampling.
Significant variation in the permanent strain resulting from the frost dilatometry method has been found in previous testing. It is thought that this variation is due to lack of material homogeneity within the brick, resulting in variations between sample slices. It appears from the current study that use of the mean strain for as little as four samples at each saturation level will allow accurate determination of critical saturation. It further appears that use of a 95th percentile strain value for each saturation level could alternatively be used as a conservative method. Overall, the proposed new methodology was found to have a high level of reproducibility for critical saturation measurement.

Educational Exodus: Stories of Korean Youth in the U.S.
AbstractAn increasing number of Korean early study abroad (ESA) students are spending some of their K-12 school years in the U.S. to continue their schooling. This typical social and educational phenomenon in Korea has surged since 2000. This study aims to investigate Korean ESA adolescents' life experiences in the U.S., focusing on motives for ESA and challenges they have experienced during their staying in the U.S. A case narrative inquiry was adopted as a research methodology to examine in-depth life experiences of four focal students. For the primary method of data collection, this study employed longitudinal observation, individual interviews, and written documents. Findings indicated that various components were entangled in complex ways for explaining the students' decision-making such as escaping from competitive Korean educational situation, improving English language competence, following their parents' academic journey, and getting better education. However, it might not be a path without risks. In our study, the Korean ESA adolescents have faced various challenges and even agonies. This research will provide authentic and practical information for educators and teachers to understand this emerging group of students. View Full-Text

How To Fix The Garbled Code On Notepad Files?
How To Fix The Garbled Code On Notepad Files
5
(22)
Summary: Usually, we will record some information in a notepad, such as passwords, keys, ideas, notes, etc. But sometimes, when we open it after a while, we find many garbled characters inside. What should we do? This article will show how to fix the garbled code on notepad files.
When working extensively with Plain Text files with the TXT file extension, individuals may encounter documents with garbled text instead of the expected content. This issue often occurs when the corrupted text document is written in a non-Latin alphabet-based foreign language. Still, it can happen with any file if there are inconsistencies in the settings used during the file's saving process.
To solve the garbled code on notepad files, you must first understand the cause of the problem. The primary reason is the wrong document format. Generally, there are several reasons for garbled characters:
Methods to Fix the Garbled Code on Notepad Files
Method 1: Convert the File Extension
First, let's solve the problem caused by the file format disorder. Just change the file extension back to the original format. For example, if your file is originally a word file, you can change its file extension to .doc or .docx. If it is a web page file, change it to .html, etc. Then open these files with the appropriate program.
Method 2: Change the Encoding Option
Mismatched encoding formats for text files can also lead to garbled code. In such case, you need to change the encoding form as follows:
 1. Open the garbled file with Notepad and select Save>Save As.
 2. Choose ANSI or UTF-8 as encoding format and click Save.
Method 3: Change the System Locale
When opening various text documents with Notepad results in gibberish, it's typically a system issue. The problem could be that the encoding used for the file is not compatible with the native character encoding used by the version of Windows you have.
So if the previous method doesn't work, we can change the default system language in Windows.
 1. Search control panel in the search bar and open it.
 2. Click on Change date, time or number formats under Clock and Region.
 3. Select the Administrative tab and click on Change system locale option.
 4. In the next window, choose the language you need from the drop-down menu and click OK.
 5. Close Control Panel and restart your computer to make the changes effective.
Method 4: Use Restore Previous Version
You will also get a Notepad garbled codes issue when a Notepad file gets corrupted. Several common reasons can cause Notepad file corruption or damage, such as file header corruption, improper system shutdown, virus attacks, and incomplete download and compression issues.
Many Windows users enable Windows backup tools such as file history to protect data security and regularly back up their files. If this is the case for you, here are some steps you can take when the above two methods fail:
 1. Go to the location where the Notepad file is stored.
 2. Right-click on the corrupted file and select Previous Version from the context menu.
 3. Choose the correct previous version and click on Restore.
 4. Now, open the Notepad file to see if the problem is fixed.
Method 5: Use Microsoft Word to Repair Notepad Files
 1. Open the Word app, then click File and select Options.
 2. Shift to the Advanced tab and navigate to the General section.
 3. Check Confirm file format conversion on open and click OK to save changes.
 4. Click File and select Open.
 5. When the Open window appears, hit the Browse button.
 6. Choose All Files and select Recover Text from Any File (*.*).
 7. Select the corrupted notepad file from the list and click Open.
 8. Now, you can check whether this method helps to repair the text file.
Method 6: Open Notepad Files in the Browser
The simplest and most effective way to view the original file is by opening it with a web browser. Web browsers are designed to translate data between encoding schemes. You can use either Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome to open the text file, and it will display the language correctly.
Conclusion
The garbled code of the Notepad file is not a big problem. When you encounter garbled code on Notepad files, the six recommended methods in this article should solve the problem in no time. If you have any other valuable methods or suggestions, welcome to leave a comment below.

Sorting Through Results of Revolving IPs from nslookup Results
If you are using something like imap.mail.yahoo.com or outlook.office365.com and would like to add a firewall rule to open the appropriate IPs to access could be quite a challenge. These IPs seem to change often. Here are a couple of command lines that may help sort through this mess.
Typically, a simple command would be executed with results.
nslookup outlook.office365.com
Since there are so many IPs that are cycled, and the desire is not to miss too many. Here is a loop performing 250 nslookups and outputting the IPs to a file. In this case, a new file will be created ">". Optionally, the file could be appended with ">>".
for i in {1..250}; do nslookup outlook.office365.com | grep "Address" | grep -v "#" | awk '{print $2}'; done > outlook.office365.com.ips
The results could be sorted with this.
cat outlook.office365.com.ips | sort -nr | uniq -c | sort -nr
To get a cleaner output, remove local IPs from the equation and group the IPs by the first two octaves of their IP range.
cat outlook.office365.com.ips | sort -nr | rev | cut -d"." -f3- | rev | uniq -c | sort -nr
These results may produce something like this, where the first column is the number of occurrences for that string followed by the first two octaves of the IP.
2153 132.245
 58 157.56
 15 40.96
Now, you could write something for 132.245.0.0/16 ... etc.
An even cleaner method.
for i in {1..250}; do nslookup outlook.office365.com | grep "Address" | grep -v "#" | awk '{print $2}'; done | sort -nr | rev | cut -d"." -f3- | rev | uniq -c | sort -nr
The result:
2250 40.97
250 40.96

Name of File :- Surcharge Point Load Design Excel Sheet
Retaining walls are built in order to hold back earth which would otherwise move downwards. A surcharge load results from forces that are applied along the surface of the backfill behind the wall. These forces apply additional lateral forces along the back of the wall. This spreadsheet calculates the resulting pressure field acting on the retaining wall due to a point load at a given position behind the wall.

This article is about the municipality in Norway. For the community in Minnesota, see Rollag, Minnesota
Rollag is a municipality in Buskerud county, Norway. It is part of the traditional region of Numedal. The municipality of Rollag was established on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt). Nore og Uvdal was separated from Rollag in 1858.
The administrative centre of the municipality is the village of Rollag, although the most populated area in the municipality is Veggli. Rollag is bordered in the north by Nore og Uvdal, in the east by Sigdal, in the south by Flesberg, and in the west by Tinn (Telemark county).
General information
The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Rollag farm (Old Norse: Roll(u)lag), since the first church was built here. The first element is probably (the genitive case of) a river name Rolla (now called the Troelva river) and the last element is lag which means "fishing place". The meaning of the river name is unknown (maybe "the shivering").
The coat-of-arms is from modern times. They were granted in 1993. The arms show two gold-colored lines on a red background. The lines represent an old warning cairn made of timber.
The municipality lies in the heart of the Numedal traditional region and valley, the westernmost valley in southeastern Norway. The river Numedalslågen flows through Rollag and into the Ytre Oslofjord at Larvik.
In the northwest of the Rollag lie the Vegglifjell mountains, which are an entryway into the Hardangervidda. The municipality's highest point is Storegrønut at 1,289 metres (4,229 ft) located in the Vegglifjell mountains.
Rollag stave church
- The Rollag stave church (built around _PHONE_) is located a few kilometres north of the centre of Rollag. It was extended and windows were added in 1652. A new Apse was added in 1666. The transept was constructed in _PHONE_. A gallery was added in 1702. The sacristy was built in 1739. A Baroque pulpit was added in 1763.

Parallelism and sharding
Playwright Test runs tests in parallel by default, using multiple worker processes.
Workers#
Each worker process creates a new environment to run tests. By default, Playwright Test reuses the worker as much as it can to make testing faster.
Should any test fail, Playwright will discard entire worker process along with the browsers used and will start a new one. That way failing tests can't affect healthy ones.
You can control the maximum number of parallel worker processes via command line or in the configuration file.
 - Run in parallel by default
 npx playwright test
 - Disable parallelization
 npx playwright test --workers 1
 - Control the number of workers
 npx playwright test --workers 4
 - In the configuration file
 // playwright.config.ts
 import { PlaywrightTestConfig } from '@playwright/test';
 const config: PlaywrightTestConfig = {
 // Limit the number of workers on CI, use default locally
 workers: process.env.CI ? 2 : undefined,
 };
 export default config;
Each worker process is assigned a unique sequential index that is accessible through the workerInfo object. Since each worker is a process, there also is a process-wide environment variable process.env.TEST_WORKER_INDEX that has the same value.
Shards#
Playwright Test can shard a test suite, so that it can be executed on multiple machines. For that, pass --shard=x/y to the command line. For example, to split the suite into three shards, each running one third of the tests:
npx playwright test --shard=1/3
npx playwright test --shard=2/3
npx playwright test --shard=3/3
That way your test suite completes 3 times faster.

Dual Kalman filter for estimating load-free human motion kinematic energy expenditure
journal contributionposted on 2018-03-01, 00:00 authored by Gareth Williams, S Li, Pubudu PathiranaPubudu Pathirana
© 2017 Elsevier Ltd The need for measuring energy expenditure using non-wearable devices in sports science is a complex task involving strict protocols of measurement. Such protocols and measurement involving indirect calorimetry or inertial measurement unit (IMU) based measurement are expensive to setup, too inaccurate or force the subjects being measured to modify their actions in a significant manner. In this paper, we explored the concept of using a parallel Kalman filter setup being used in simulation. The simulation used was an iterative one using a dynamic model, featuring the use of two different types of setup- structured or non structured movement and the use of one or two Kalman filters. The results from the simulations performed showed that structured movement using a dual Kalman filter setup was the best performer when using root mean square error as the metric for performance. These results will help influence our work utilising the Microsoft Kinect and estimating weights of human joints and the energy expenditure attained from that.

Admin Multi-Check is a security feature built into RealmsCore that helps protect your server.
Some commands, such as permissions and moderation commands, use Admin Multi-Check. This means that in addition to the normal permission node (such as realms.kick for the /kick command), they require:
- The realms.admin permission
- If permissions and multi-check are enabled, "admin: true" must be listed below the player's UUID in the playerperms.yml file.
For example, here is an example excerpt from a playerperms.yml file:
# Kyle_Necrowolf's permissions c7a0e7df-5141-4344-b119-9f1102e5178c: admin: true permissions: default: admin_utility cheat: admin_cheat
If the "admin: true" line (bolded above) is not found, the player will be denied access to the command.
Why use Admin Multi-Check
Because this feature is separate from permissions, your server stays protected even if your permissions system is compromised.
"Force op" hacks will fail the multi-check, because they only fool the permissions system. They can't modify the file, so they can't fool RealmsCore.
In most cases, the server owner is the only person with access to the server files. No one on the server can modify or bypass this system, therefore, the owner is always in control.
Disabling Admin Multi-Check
If Admin Multi-Check is disabled, only the realms.admin permission is required. The playerperms.yml file will not be checked.
The console, command blocks, and remote console (RCON) are not affected (see below).
Disabling permissions (in coreconfig.yml) will automatically disable Admin Multi-Check.
Beyond that, it is not recommended that you disable Admin Multi-Check manually. It is a non-intrusive security feature that can help protect your server. However, if you do not want to use it, you can disable it in coreconfig.yml.
How it works with Console, Command Blocks, and Remote Console (RCON)
Admin Multi-Check also applies to commands run from the console, command blocks, and remote console (RCON).
For all commands that use Admin-Multi-Check:
- By default, the console is allowed. Can be blocked in the config.
- By default, command blocks are blocked.
- Can be allowed in the config, but not recommended, as it allows commands to be run without restrictions, and any player on your server can maliciously activate command blocks.
- By default, the remote console (RCON) is blocked.
- Can be allowed in the config, but not recommended, as it can open your server up to remote attackers.
- All other command senders (entities, proxies) are blocked.
Note that this applies even if Admin Multi-Check is disabled. Disabling the feature will only disable it for players.

ROCHDALE Fire Station is 70 years old this month - and to celebrate, the Greater Manchester Fire Service museum, which is based there, will be throwing open its doors on Saturday.
The museum, which, coincidentally, is celebrating its 20th anniversary, is normally only open for specially-arranged visits. But that will all change on Saturday when visitors will be able to see some of the historic exhibits, including water hoses, a mini fire engine, an engine from 1741, helmets and safety gear, as well as modern emergency vehicles.
For the first 30 years of the 20th century Rochdale Fire Brigade shared premises with the Borough Police Force in Alfred Street, near where the bus station is now. But by 1933, the brigade needed a bigger and better home and so the decision was made to build a new fire station in Maclure Road at a cost of £27,000.
Next to the station 32 houses were built to accommodate fire crews and their families. Those houses are now privately owned.
Fire Brigade museum officer Bob Bonner said: "Officers used to be based in residence and were alerted to fires at all hours by lights and alarms and they would be straight out."
The museum opened in 1983 to pay tribute to the commitment of past firefighters and to preserve historic artefacts.
Today, there are twice as many exhibits as when it first opened and the eight volunteers are pleased with what it has to offer.
Mr Bonner said: "Some of the things that we have managed to preserve are an insight into past firefighting methods.
"We have a fireman's pole. Even though this station got rid of its pole years ago, we managed to get one from another station. It is probably the biggest thing people associate with a station."
Also on show are 'fire grenades' - glass cylinders filled with water that were thrown at fires before the days of pumps and hoses. But the pride of the museum is a 125ft turntable ladder that was used to tackle mill fires. "There have been a lot of changes in the demands of a firefighter over the years in that they don't have the big old mills to attend to, and so big ladders like this aren't needed as much.
"We have had to adapt to modern buildings and, also, there is a rescue part now. Officers these days will attend to more car crashes in their career than actual fires."
Saturday's open day will start at 10am and goes on until 4pm. Call 900161 for details.


Antennas sticking out of an aircraft obviously increase profile drag, but the folks who design antennas have done a lot to improve aerodynamics: High performance aircraft can have antennas mounted inside of fiberglass components like wingtips, and flush-mounte antennas are available for transponders and DME equipment.
For slower light GA aircraft more aerodynamic antennas are also available (e.g. blade-style transponder antennas are available which produce about 80% less drag than older spike-and-ball style antennas), measured at 250 MPH.
Since the average light GA aircraft has a VNE below 250 MPH and isn't generally covered in antennas, how significant is the antenna drag on a typical light GA airframe? For example, would stripping the ~6 pounds of antenna drag from your average Cessna make an appreciable difference in airspeed?
 - $\begingroup$ if you know you have 6 pounds of antenna drag and you know the pounds of thrust of the engine then you can get a rough estimate of how much faster you go faster $\endgroup$ – ratchet freak Feb 7 '14 at 8:49
From an aerospace engineering perspective:
The drag coefficient ($C_D$) of a round antenna is can be estimated by around $.5$ depending on shape, while for an streamlined shape it's around $0.045$.
Drag is defined as:
Thus, say you have a 0.01 m wide antenna 0.25 m long, for an aircraft moving at 50 m/s. At sea level conditions, air density $\rho=1.225 \mathrm {kg/m^3}$. Say that $C_D=0.5$. If my calculations add up, it's around $1.9 \mathrm{N}$.
Say you have the same antenna, for the same aircraft aircraft moving at 50 m/s. Air density is $1.225 \mathrm{kg/m^3}$, but this time the antenna is streamlined with $C_D=0.04$. This results in a force of only $0.15 \mathrm {N}$.
(Updates: Originally the formula included $\frac12$ twice which was wrong, and that the force was given in kg, rather than newtons; my apologies.)

 $\begingroup$ You can do a lot to improve readability of formulae using , ρ etc. I took the liberty of adding those. $\endgroup$ – Marcks Thomas Feb 7 '14 at 12:26

 $\begingroup$ I also took the liberty of omitting "/2" from the drag formula, as it was incorrect, but the factor appears to have been edited back in. $\endgroup$ – Marcks Thomas Feb 7 '14 at 13:09

 $\begingroup$ Manfred, what's happening in Delft? Why don't you just use Newtons as a result from your calculations. Now it is confusing because your units don't match up. To express force as mass isn't the way to do AE :-). Also thrust is not defined a power available * velocity. Delivered power is defined as thrust * velocity (TAS). Thus thrust = delivered power / velocity. Note that the rated available power from your engine is more than the delivered power because you loose some in transmission and propeller efficiency. $\endgroup$ – DeltaLima Feb 7 '14 at 18:09
Given how abysmal your average GA plane is in the aerodynamics department, the amount of drag added by antennas is almost nothing.
I have some numbers for a Cherokee 160 from an aircraft performance class -although I make no claims that they're 100% accurateand I'm seeing between 250-360 lbs of drag during level flight depending on the airspeed. Add your 6lbs of antenna drag onto that, and in order to maintain the same airspeed you need at maximum (a density altitude of 10,000 feet) 3 additional horsepower. At sea level it barely registers a change at all.
 - $\begingroup$ I think the drag numbers for the Cherokee series are pretty accurate (as is your math on the horsepower at typical GA cruise speeds). Working with about 130KIAS my math came out to between 1 and 4 percent of engine horsepower going to fighting drag (much of the variation from stuff like propeller pitch & cruise power setting) the antenna drag, or roughly 1-3 knots if you completely removed and smoothed the antennas. Obviously that's the mathematical ideal - in the real world I'd expect less substantial gains. $\endgroup$ – voretaq7 Feb 7 '14 at 17:44
 - $\begingroup$ It's worth noting though that as lousy as light GA aircraft are in the aerodynamics department some antennas are worse - like these "Flying V" beasts. I don't even want to think about the profile drag on that :-) $\endgroup$ – voretaq7 Feb 7 '14 at 17:47
 - 2
 $\begingroup$ _USER_ That thing looks like it might actually generate lift though! $\endgroup$ – Lnafziger Feb 8 '14 at 3:16
 - $\begingroup$ _USER_: according to this document, removing the antennas gained 4 knots in cruise speed (probably KTAS), so seems to be accurate. $\endgroup$ – Qantas 94 Heavy Feb 8 '14 at 4:16

TCPView works on Windows NT/2000/XP and Windows 98/Me. You can use TCPView on Windows 95 if you get the Windows 95 Winsock 2 Update from Microsoft.
Using TCPView
When you start TCPView it will enumerate all active TCP and UDP endpoints, resolving all IP addresses to their domain name versions. You can use atoolbar button or menu item to toggle the display of resolved names. On Windows XP systems, TCPView shows the name of the process that owns each endpoint.
Tcpvcon Usage
Show all endpoints (default is to show established TCP connections).
Print output as CSV.
Don't resolve addresses.
Source Code to Netstatp
Wonder how TCPView works? Netstatp is a program with source that demonstrates how to program some of TCPView's functionality. It shows how to use IP Helper interfaces, documented in MSDN, to obtain a list of TCP/IP endpoints. Note, however, that netstatp doesn't show process names on NT 4 and Win2K like TCPView and TCPVCon.

Q: Where does the name "Boston Butt" come from, especially considering that the cut comes from the shoulder of the animal?
A: In pre-revolutionary New England and into the Revolutionary War, some pork cuts (not those of high value, like the loin and ham) were packed into casks or barrels for storage and shipment. These barrels were known as "butts." In the Boston area, the cut from the hog's shoulder became known in other regions as the Boston Butt. The name stuck, and today it is still referred to as the Boston Butt almost everywhere in the U.S., except in Boston!

Tennis Agility Drills and Speed Exercises
Tennis agility drills deals with the movement, coordination and reaction speed for tennis. Performing a tennis agility drill on a regular basis can improve a player's tennis fitness and endurance on the court.
tennis-agility-drillsTennis agility drills involve the player's fitness and movement around the court.
Top players are also exceptional athletes in today modern tennis game. Any tennis training program will include at least one component of a tennis agility drill to not only improve a player's balance but their explosion and quickness around the tennis court.
Often times, the tennis fitness aspect of the game is overlooked by club players worldwide. This is a shame, because a player that is in good physical shape can outlast a player who has not yet included tennis agility drills into their training regimen. For any good player, tennis agility drills are a big part of their fitness element.
Below are some of the tennis agility drills that help tennis players develop their speed, balance, quickness and coordination. Specifically, these drills aim to develop the players' ability to change direction, footwork flexibility, hip extension, etc.
Tennis Agility Drill #1: The skip for height supplemental
The objective of this series tennis agility drills is to help players increase their hip extension. It also helps the players to strengthen their flexion and to develop ankle stiffness. This drill is just one of the tennis agility drills that a player must follow to gain speed and quickness that is necessary to win tennis matches.
 - Skip with your left or right leg and move forward while doing so. While skipping, you should maintain proper body posture where your spine is in straight position and your body in steady posture. You arm should also be in proper action. When the left leg is up, the right hand is up as well and vice versa.
 - Make sure that the knee of the leg that is up in the air is fully extended and fully flexed. Also, the ankle of the raised leg should level off with the knee of the leg on the ground.
 - When the raised leg is fully up, your foot on the ground should be on plantar flexion movement or the front portion of your foot and the shin is angled at 90 degrees.
 - When your foot lands on the ground, create an explosive but gentle power but never bang it on the ground.
Tennis Agility Drill #2: The 40-yard square carioca tennis agility drill
This is one of the tennis agility drills that aim to develop your ability to quickly change direction. It also helps you enhance your hips and footwork flexibility.
 - Execute this drill with the use of cones. Simply place one cone on every corner of the court.
 - Position yourself at one corner and execute the two point stance. To do this, stand with both of your knees bent and feet staggered (one foot is in front while the other stays back) and put your weight over your front foot. Bend your elbows and then place your arms in front of your chest with your head up.
 - From your present position, sprint towards one corner and pivot in reverse manner when you reach the corner.
 - After you pivot, execute Carioca instead of sprinting to reach the next corner.
 - Then execute another reverse pivot when you reach another corner and go to the remaining corner using Carioca steps.
 - Repeat the drill as many as you can or as prescribed by the coach.
Tennis Agility Drill #3: The quick and wide shuffle with ladder
Same as the other tennis agility drills, this drill help you improve you speed, coordination and balance.
 - Start with a two-point stance position (as described above).
 - Stand in such a way that the ladder is front of you.
 - Then step with your left and right feet on the first step or square
 - Then move out of the ladder laterally. Say move to your right side by a side step using your right foot first then your left foot follows.
 - Then you move in but this time on the next step or square. Move in with your left foot first to be followed by your right foot. As your right foot touches the square, move out you're your left foot quickly (this time to the left side of the ladder) and your right foot follows quickly.
 - Repeat the move in and move out steps as many as you can. Remember to maintain balance when you execute this drill.
 - Once you reach the top of the ladder, you can repeat the drill and start again from the first step or square.
Tennis Agility Drill #4: The 15-yard turn agility drill
In addition to other tennis agility drills, this drill helps you improve your ability to change from one direction to another. It will also make you more flexible in your hips and footwork. To complete this drill, put one marker (cone1) at around five yard forward from the starting your point (which is also the finish point) and another marker (cone 2) five yards to the right of the starting point.
 - Execute the two-point stance posture while you are at the starting point.
 - The next step is for you to sprint towards cone 1. Upon reaching the first marker (cone 1), quickly make a right turn towards the next maker (cone 2).
 - As you reach cone 2, make a quick left turn and sprint towards the starting point or the finishing point. Take note that cone 1 and cone 2 should be in diagonal position.
Tennis Agility Drill #5: The lateral skaters to sprint agility drill
The purpose of this set of tennis agility drills is for the development of your cutting ability and enhancement of first lateral quickness. In addition to other tennis agility drill, this drill must be done regularly to develop your speed and quickness.
 - To start with this drill, stand with straight and steady body posture and bring your left and right feet together. Then push off your body using either of your legs laterally. This means that when you are pushing you body towards you right, it is you left leg that pushes you off, but you land with your right foot.
 - Once you land on the ground or on the floor (make sure that you land with only one foot), pause for three to four seconds and quickly push off again to the other side. This time, you push your body with your right leg and land on your left leg.
 - For this agility drill for be more effective, repeat it as many as you can and at regular basis. After you have completed the reps, sprint around the court.
Tennis Agility Drill #6: The medicine ball agility drill
This is one of the tennis agility drills that enhance your explosive power to help you execute powerful throwing and overhead shots. In this tennis agility drill, all you need is a medicine ball.
 - Stand in front of a wall with your two feet spread at hip-width distance. Keep your body straight and in steady manner, your head up and knees bent.
 - Hold the medicine ball with your both hands and bring it up over your head. With your elbows bent, hit the wall with the ball successively at a very fast pace. Do this as long as possible and do it regularly as well.
 - You can do variations in this drill. One variation is the position of your feet. You can have one of your feet in front while the other stays back. You can also execute this drill while you are in kneeling position.
Tennis Agility Drill #7: The sprint/backpedal agility drill
This tennis agility drill aims to develop your reaction speed and quickness. It also aims to develop your quickness in changing directions, which is vital when playing tennis matches. To complete this drill, make markings on the starting point and the finishing point. The distance between the two points should be around 30 yards.
 - Stand at the starting point and wait for your partner's or coach's signal to start.
 - Once you hear the first whistle, spring quickly towards the finishing marker.
 - When you hear the second whistle, stop and move backwards) at a very fast pace (backpedal.
 - The drill continues where you change directions (forwards or backward movements) after each whistle. The coach on one hand should see to it the interval of each whistle varies. So that the player won't be able to anticipate the whistle and when to stop. In the end, the drill becomes more effective in developing the player's ability to quickly change direction.
 - The player should also not anticipate the whistle and should maintain the same speed all throughout the drill.

text: Voice conversion (VC) is an effective approach to electrolaryngeal (EL) speech enhancement, a task that aims to improve the quality of the artificial voice from an electrolarynx device. In frame-based VC methods, time alignment needs to be performed prior to model training, and the dynamic time warping (DTW) algorithm is widely adopted to compute the best time alignment between each utterance pair. The validity is based on the assumption that the same phonemes of the speakers have similar features and can be mapped by measuring a pre-defined distance between speech frames of the source and the target. However, the special characteristics of the EL speech can break the assumption, resulting in a sub-optimal DTW alignment. In this work, we propose to use lip images for time alignment, as we assume that the lip movements of laryngectomee remain normal compared to healthy people. We investigate two naive lip representations and distance metrics, and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can significantly outperform the audio-only alignment in terms of objective and subjective evaluations.

1. Class Trailer: do you like to draw? Have you ever wanted to see your drawings come to life? This class will teach you how to make a five second animation with as little as 12 drawings For our class project, you will learn how to animate a dog howling, complete with sound effects. Class requirements are that you will need to purchase a program called Rough Animator, which is $5. It runs on a Mac PC or a tablet running IOS Android or Kindle Fire. This class is for beginners or animators looking for an easy to learn program to get into two D hand drawn animation. If you can draw stick figures, you can take this class. Hi there. My name is Patrick Davidson, demographics freelancer and part time animator. I've been animating for over 20 years now, and I've worked on projects from TV commercials to feed your family. I worked mainly in two D or hand drawn animation. My favorite personal animated projects are the Web comedy series Traveling Green Goes and My Action, Siri's Trap. I'm also an ex pats in California living in my new adopted country of Costa Rica, but enough about me. Let's get into this class 2. Setting Up a New Project: Welcome to our class. Let's get started. But switch over here too. Rough animator. And we're gonna hit Start a new project. I'm going to keep the resolution at 7 20 p. 24 frames, so you could do larger if you want. That's what I'm gonna work at and just get situated here. Zoom out with up with command minus man Plus goes larger. Hold the space bar down and you get the hand and you can move the whole canvas around. 3. Overview of Tool Palettes: Here's our timeline up here to give ourselves a more room. And let's just look at the tools real fast. So we came up here to window. We can see there's Maybe there's five main tool palettes. So we've got tools which are your drawing tools, razor etcetera. And we'll get into that tool options, which is this in the bottom right corner here. And you'll see that this will change depending on what? To your in on the right. And then we've got timeline, which is this up top here, and we'll get into that what that's got, then we've got preferences, and this I only use occasionally. So we'll we'll pull that up when we need it. Not needed. Open right now and then. Color palette. We can use that as well, but I'm gonna close it for now. We want black for now. 4. Using the Drawing Tools: So I'm gonna grab the breast tool, and I'm a switch from my house to my pen on my my tablet here. And I just want to do a rough sketch of our dog here. So I'm gonna start making some surks, um, shapes triangle for the nose oval for the ears, and we're gonna do an oval for the body here, give a little tail, and what we want to do is gonna give him a couple of feed in the back and some feet in the front here. We're gonna get him some eyes, couple of circles there, and my eyebrows gonna give him a triangle nose. And at this stage, I just want to sketch quickly We're not doing Then we're not doing going for the world's best drawing right now. We can do that. And later, this is our roofs basically, and that's a good time to come up here. And we're gonna name this layer because that's what we're drawing on here by by default. Gonna call this refs and come back here actually want these, uh, legs to be a little longer. There's a few ways to do that. I'm gonna grab the eraser tool and just erase what I've drawn here. And actually, I want a bigger eraser. So let's go ahead and let's double that up to 50 and you can see that it gets bigger. Let's go ahead and go to 100 and even bigger Still back over to our brush. And let's just give this little port dog Isam feet here, okay? I'll give him a spot on his back. So for the time being, I'm just going to sketch things in. I'm not gonna spend too much time on detail. And was again the Zahra refs. Uh, she was giving lip there. Okay, Um actually, I don't know if I like that years, so let's erase that clean about just a little bit here, My bottom lip. All right, so let's let's go with that. Okay, Now we've got our rough drawing the next. What I want to do is I want to basically do all of my animation as Ruff's, and then we're gonna go back over when we're going to create a new layer on top of the Ruff's and we're gonna do cleaner drawings. What I want to do is just come up here and click Add drawing. Now we're gonna add after or we could duplicate after these air the options it's giving us, Uh, let's try duplicate after, actually. So now you see here we've got two frames and they're the same frame. But what I want to do on the second frame is we're gonna come over here, we're gonna race, and when I raise his whole head and I'm gonna redraw it that way down to redraw the body, go back to my brush and let's draw s'more shapes here a couple of ovals and let's keep drying. So what we're drawing here is we're drawing a dog howling. And as our little guy here is howling, we're gonna have some animation happened. Meantime, let's just do a quick little drawing here. Now we can see is back or his front paw here. Okay, so now we've actually got some animation. You were just the two drawing so we can kind of flip back and forth and you can see the animation. One thing I notice is that kind of drawn him a little bit high. So if I want to move this drawing, I want to move all of my drawings. So the move Multiple drawings. When a center this a little bit Drop him down a little bit. So we hit Edit multiple. When we get our little bounding box here, it looks like you can click and drag this and select. Now we've got both selected as they both have highlighted. So now I want to grab him over here and grab the lasso tool, and we're just gonna grab all of the drawing. And then we could just click and drag and drop him down in the center where we want him. And I believe we can scale up and down ones were in this as well. So when we're done, we just click outside of that and you can see we still got both or all of the frames selected. So we're just going to come up here and select one, and now you can see we've moved all of our drawings at one time, so that's how to do that. 5. Rough Animation: to go back to our brush because what we want to do is at a few details of animation here. And one thing I want to do in the second drawing is I want to add some animation to his tail. So let's come here and let's erase the tail. And then I'm gonna go back to my brush, and then

_PHONE_ - You Are Not Able to Change the Tax Amount in an Invoice
You are not able to change the Tax Amount in an Invoice.
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
 1. Go to the Customer Invoicing work center.
 2. Select the Invoice Requests view.
 3. Select the respective Invoice Request and click on the Invoice button.
 4. In the New Invoice navigate to the Pricing tab.
 5. You can see that the Tax Amount cannot be changed.
It is not possible to maintain only a total tax amount for the entire customer invoice.
The total tax amount at the document level of the invoices is calculated aggregately i.e. by adding up individual item level tax amounts (calculated depending upon the tax rate, tax type, and tax rate type) and then rounding off that sum to relevant decimal places (as per that currency).
Tax rates are fixed to the selected tax codes which are then used to calculate the tax. The tax amount cannot be changed manually as it is calculated by the system.
 You can adjust tax codes that are determined in order to receive a different tax rate, depending on country specific requirements. However a manual change of the tax amount within the document is not possible.
This is the expected system behavior.

Letter-writing saves history
Letter-writing saves history!
In 1863, 1944 and 1961, three people each wrote one letter and thereby saved history for the fourth-graders in November 2013 who were attending a hands-on career day at Jackson's Northview Elementary.
The Civil War era letter in cursive, the WWII typewritten letter and the 1961 hand-printed letter from New York City rocked the Common Core Standards approach!
We used writing letters as a guide to life skills. I illustrated the ways science, math, social studies and reading are all a part of my job as Director at the Jones Museum as seen through the preservation and use of those letters written during the past 150 years. Also, we worked at reaching conclusions about the letters and the situations of the letter writers as related to Jackson County history.
For 20 minutes, history was alive in that school library through those letters.
Remember, no matter the date or topic, every letter is valuable because it tells a story and contributes to lifelong learning.
So be a superhero and save history.
Hurry and write at least one letter in 2013 and beyond!

We use Nielsen's approach to quantify the circuit complexity in the one-dimensional Kitaev model. In equilibrium, we find that the circuit complexity of ground states exhibits a divergent derivative at the critical point, signaling the presence of a topological phase transition. Out of equilibrium, we study the complexity dynamics after a sudden quench, and find that the steady-state complexity exhibits nonanalytical behavior when quenched across critical points. We generalize our results to the long-range interacting case, and demonstrate that the circuit complexity correctly predicts the critical point between regions with different semi-integer topological numbers. Our results establish a connection between circuit complexity and quantum phase transitions both in and out of equilibrium, and can be easily generalized to topological phase transitions in higher dimensions. Our study opens a new avenue to using circuit complexity as a novel quantity to understand many-body systems.

Algorithm to clone a tree is quite easy, we can do pre-order traversal for that. Is there an efficient algorithm to clone a graph?
I tried a similar approach, and concluded we need to maintain a hash-map of nodes already added in the new graph, else there will be duplication of nodes, since one node can have many parents.

_USER_ DFS/BFS with flag in original graph will help me to not visit the node again. But in the new graph i do want a link between the current node and a node already added in the graph.

It suffices to do a depth first search and copy each node as it's visited. As you say, you need some way of mapping nodes in the original graph to corresponding copies so that copies of cycle edges can be connected correctly.
This map also suffices to remember nodes already visited in the DFS.
So in Java you'd have something like:
class Node {
 // Contents of node...
 Data data;
 //... member declarations like array of adjacent nodes
 final ArrayList children = new ArrayList<>();
 // Recursive graph walker for copying, not called by others.
 private Node deepCloneImpl(Map copies) {
 Node copy = copies.get(this);
 if (copy == null) {
 copy = new Node(data);
 // Map the new node _before_ copying children.
 copies.put(this, copy);
 for (Node child : children)
 return copy;
 public Node deepClone() {
 return deepCloneImpl(new HashMap());
A different approach is to put an additional field in each node that points to the copy if there is one and is null otherwise. This merely implements the map by another method. But it requires two passes over the graph: one to make the copy and another to clear these map fields for future re-use.

Your hash map approach seems viable if you had some quick way of uniquely identifying every node.
Otherwise, you would be best off if you:
 1. used data-structure to store graph that allows you to store "is duplicated" unique flag directly in every node (for example, 0 not duplicated, 1 to numberOfNodes for duplicated nodes),
 2. traversed nodes (via BFS, DFS) taking care of the already duplicated nodes and reconstructing all connections from the starting graph.
Both your starting graph and finishing graph should have corresponding unique "is duplicated" flag in every node, so you are able to reconstruct connections from starting graph properly. Of course, you could use "is duplicated" flag and "unique identifier" as separate variables.

As you copy nodes from the source graph, place each node in a map (thus numbering the nodes from 1 to N).
As you paste nodes in the destination graph, place each node in a map (again numbering from 1 to N, but with mapping in reverse direction for reasons that will be clear soon).
When you find a backlink in the source graph, you can map that backlinked "source copy" node to an integer i using the first map. Next, you use the second map to lookup the integer i and find the "destination copy" node which needs to have the same backlink created.

I just realized this is pretty much the same answer Gene posted above, but with the Node<->Node map exploded into two maps. Oh well. :-) – The111 Aug 10 '13 at 0:24

text: This study presents a rain area detection scheme that uses a gradient based adaptive technique for daytime and nighttime rain area detection and correction from reflectance and infrared (IR) brightness temperatures data of the Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) satellite. First, multiple parametric rain detection models developed from MSG's reflectance and IR data were calibrated and validated with rainfall data from a dense network of rain gauge stations and investigated to determine the best model parameters. The models were based on a conceptual assumption that clouds characterised by the top properties, e.g., high optical thickness and effective radius, have high rain probabilities and intensities. Next, a gradient based adaptive correction technique that relies on rain area-specific parameters was developed to reduce the number and sizes of the detected rain areas. The daytime detection with optical (VIS0.6) and near IR (NIR1.6) reflectance data achieved the best detection skill. For nighttime, detection with thermal IR brightness temperature differences of IR3.9-IR10.8, IR3.9-WV73 and IR108-WV62 showed the best detection skill based on general categorical statistics. Compared to the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Integrated Mult-isatellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) and the gauge station data from the southwest of Kenya, the model showed good agreement in the spatial dynamics of the detected rain area and rain rate.

NEW HAMPSHIRE – New Hampshire mental health groups applauded Senator Hassan's bipartisan bill, which President Biden recently signed into law, to strengthen mental health resources for young people and help prevent youth suicide. The bipartisan STANDUP Act comes as students across New Hampshire have reached out to Senator Hassan about the urgent need to address mental health challenges and expand access to resources for young people.
"UNH Extension is incredibly excited about the STANDUP Act and Senator Hassan's focus on youth mental health in NH," said Dr. Michael Young, Health & Well-Being Program Team Leader at UNH Extension. "We too have been alarmed by the mental health crisis in NH, reflected in disproportionately high suicide rates, that has been exacerbated by the pandemic. We have identified this as one of the most pressing health and well-being needs in NH. We have multiple educational programs that will complement the Senator's efforts, including: coordinating the statewide implementation of Youth Mental Health First Aid for the NH State Department of Education and facilitating both statewide and local 4-H Teen leadership groups focused on peer to peer education and support."
"We are incredibly pleased that our country is pulling together with a bipartisan mandate to help support the mental health of our nation's young people," said Holly Fenn, President & Co-Founder of Reach 1 Teach 1 Love 1. "Since the loss of my 14-year-old son Dalton by suicide in 2009, I have witnessed suicide rates soar, from 1.3 in 2009 to 2.9 in 2018 (ages 10-14) and from 10.0 in 2009 to 14.5 in 2018 (ages 15-24), CDC. Our organization, reach 1 teach 1 love 1, is approached multiple times weekly for guidance and resources. The increase of youth suffering in such a devastating way is difficult to witness. In 2019, R1T1L1 celebrated SB 282, signed into law by Gov. Sununu. This law requires NH schools to provide suicide prevention training to all staff. This month, with President Biden's signing of Senator Hassan's STANDUP Act, suicide prevention training will be accessible nationwide. This offers immeasurable hope to those who understand the gravity our youth are facing with their mental health needs. It is a comfort to know we are all working together to make change and save lives."
"Connor's Climb Foundation is grateful for Senator Hassan's leadership in passing the STANDUP Act," said Tara Ball, President of Connor's Climb. "Now more than ever, our educators and youth need the support, education and tools to ensure that their mental health is just as important as their physical health. When schools take care of the whole student, it prevents suicide and saves lives."
"On behalf of the Raymond Coalition For Youth, we would like to thank Senator Hassan and Ernst for their action to bring forth the STANDUP Act," Celeste Clark, Executive Director of Raymond Coalition for Youth. "The more we can get people to talk about mental health and suicide risk the better. Our young people recognize how important this is. They talk openly about concerns they have for their peers' mental health. Our task is to make it as comfortable for adults to talk about mental health as it is for them to talk about something they do every day like going to the gym or the store. We need adults of all ages to be available, and open to talking about mental health, so when their loved ones, no matter how old they are, will feel comfortable coming forward to express concerns, ask for help, and get connected to resources and support. As a community we need to make sure people know where they can go for these supports: NH 988, NAMINH.org, and the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Working together to break down stigma and connect people to help, is how we save lives."
"At Makin' It Happen, we know that when our youth thrive, our communities thrive – and it is important for our schools, youth organizations, and communities to work together to address student mental health and help young people who are struggling," Mary Forsythe-Taber, Executive Director of Makin' It Happen Coalition for Resilient Youth. "We are grateful for Senator Hassan's leadership on student mental health, as well as for her work to pass the STANDUP Act. This bipartisan bill will help invest in mental health services in our schools and communities, and we look forward to seeing the positive effects that it has in our communities."
