pcapfix is a repair tool for corrupted pcap files. It checks for an intact pcap global header and repairs it if there are any corrupted bytes. If one is not present, one is created and added to the beginning of the file. It then tries to find pcap packet headers, and checks and repairs them.
Theorem Linker is a program used to visualize references between theorems in a paper written using LaTeX. Using a.tex document (and a.aux file, created by the LaTeX compiler), Theorem Linker will search through a paper, find theorems, and find references to other theorems within a theorem's "proof". It will then create a digraph in a.dot file (to be opened with programs such as Graphviz or OmniGraffle) that will display each theorem as a node, with directed edges to describe the relations between the theorems. A path highlighted in red describes the longest path in the graph. Theorem Linker will also create folders containing graphs to individually show relations of each theorem in a paper.

Plotting Surfaces with R
In this post, I'd like to review some basic options for plotting three dimensional surfaces in R. In addition to producing some eye catching visualizations, plotting surfaces can also help develop one's geometric intuition for the mathematics describing the surfaces.
The first plot below shows a Helicoid surface which is the path a propeller moving at uniform speed along the z-axis would sweep out. You might be familiar with this shape from working with a hand turned steel auger or a helocoid anemometer. The surface is built up from first principles as follows: we consider two open intervals U = {u: \(\in\) (0, 2\(\pi\))} and V = {v: \(\in\) (0, \(\pi\))}, lay down a mesh or grid over the two dimensional open set U x V, compute the parametric representation of the surface in \(R^{3}\), and use the surf3D() function from the plot3D package to render the surface.
M <- mesh(seq(0, 6*pi, length.out = 50),seq(pi/3, pi, length.out = 50))
u <- M$x ; v <- M$y
x <- v * cos(u)
y <- v * sin(u)
z <- 10 * u
surf3D(x, y, z, colvar = z, colkey = TRUE,
 box = TRUE, bty = "b", phi = 20, theta = 120)
The next code block uses the same approach and functions to render half of a torus.
R <- 3; r <- 2
M <- mesh(seq(0, 2*pi,length.out=50), seq(0, pi,length.out=50))
alpha <- M$x; beta <- M$y
x <- (R + r*cos(alpha)) * cos(beta)
y <- (R + r*cos(alpha)) * sin(beta)
z <- r * sin(alpha)
surf3D(x = x, y = y, z = z, colkey=TRUE, bty="b2",
 phi = 40, theta = 30, main="Half of a Torus")
You might test your intuition about the how changing the ratio of R and r alters the look of the torus.
I think surf3D(), which is built on base R graphics, produces high quality visualizations. I really like the crisp, metallic look of the torus. However, although surf3D() allows you to set the viewing angle, it is limited to producing static plots. A first remedy for this might be to consider the plot3d() function in the rgl package which contains functions built on base graphics and the OpenGL standard for high performance graphics. You can use the same code as above, but just swap out surf3D() and replace it with plot3d().
Here is a wireframe version of the half torus that you can rotate with your mouse.
torus <- plot3d(x, y, z, type = "l", col = "blue",
 cex =.3, pch = 1, main = "Half Torus", pch = 20)
rglwidget(elementId = "plot3drgl")
These days, of course, JaveScript has become the preferred rendering engine for interactive plots, and there are several possibilities for creating interactive, JavaScript plots in R including threejs, plotly, and graph3D. Here we show an arresting rendering of two surfaces from the threejs gallery that is built up from the parametric equations.
N = 20000
theta = runif(N)*2*pi
phi = runif(N)*2*pi
R = 1.5
r = 1.0
x = (R + r*cos(theta))*cos(phi)
y = (R + r*cos(theta))*sin(phi)
z = r*sin(theta)
d = 6
h = 6
t = 2*runif(N) - 1
w = t^2*sqrt(1-t^2)
x1 = d*cos(theta)*sin(phi)*w
y1 = d*sin(theta)*sin(phi)*w
i = order(phi)
j = order(t)
col = c(rainbow(length(phi))[order(i)],
 rainbow(length(t), start=0, end=2/6)[order(j)])
M = cbind(x=c(x, x1), y=c(y, y1), z=c(z, h*t))

This article analyses the history of the Argentina's wealthiest family, the Anchorenas, in the period 1760s- 1940s. What makes these capitalists so peculiar is not only the sheer size of their wealth but also their capacity to adapt to profound changes in the economic and institutional environment. Analysis of the Anchorenas' patterns of investment is placed within a larger debate on the peculiarities of the Argentine economic elite. This article makes use of little-explored sources such as probate records, together with private correspondence. Links between changes in patterns of investment and changes in the economic and institutional environment are explored.
Keywords : Anchorena; Argentina; economic elite; landowners; wealth.

Whistling feathers sound predator alarm
crested pigeon
Flights of fear: this crested pigeon has a secret alarm in its feathers (Source: Geoffrey Dabb)
Behavioural ecologist Dr Robert Magrath and student Mae Hingee of the Australian National University in Canberra report their findings today in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
Birds hang around in a flock rather than on their own because there are more individuals looking out for predators, says Magrath: "There are more eyes looking for danger."
But if one individual in a large group spots a predator, how does it communicate this to the rest?
While some bird species use vocal alarms to warn the rest of the flock, not all do.
One that doesn't is the Australian crested pigeon, Ocyphaps lophotes.
The bird has a very curious whistling sound when it flies, which seems to change when it flies off in alarm, says Magrath.
"You can close your eyes and know when a crested pigeon is flying around," he says.
Magrath says the whistling sound is so loud some might suspect it was made vocally, but it is actually made by the pigeons' wings.
"In fact one of their common names is the whistle-winged pigeon," he says.
Feather alarm
Magrath and Hingee hypothesised that the crested pigeon might be using its whistling feathers as an alarm.
To test this, they made model hawks which they used to scare flocks of crested pigeons.
They recorded the whistling sound made by pigeons taking off in alarm and compared this to a recording of the whistling sound made by birds taking off routinely.
Magrath and Hingee then analysed the characteristics of the different wing whistles on computer.
They found that each downbeat and upbeat of the wings produced different tones but the alarm signal was faster and louder than the routine flight sound.
The next step was to independently test whether the birds responded differently to these two different sounds.
Magrath and Hingee recorded the alarm and routine flight sounds onto CD and then played them back to flocks of birds.
"If you played back the routine whistle they just kept on feeding as if nothing had happened," says Magrath.
"If you played back the alarm whistle they just shot off - 80% of the flocks just went for the hills. Clearly the birds are playing attention to these whistles."
Alarm feathers
The researchers now want to look more closely at how the wings produce their alarm sound.
Magrath says there is a special feather on the wings that appears to be key to the whistles.
This feather amplifies the differences between slow and fast wing flapping, turning a routine whistle into an alarm whistle, he says.
Magrath says future tests will involve the use of high speed photography to try and associate particular wing strokes with particular sounds.
Other tests will place individual feathers in a wind tunnel to see if the alarm whistle can be recreated, he says.

GRANGER —The International Catholic Stewardship Council (ICSC) named St. Pius X of Granger as a runner-up for the Archbishop Thomas J. Murphy Award on Oct. 13. Julie Kenny, from Our Sunday Visitor and a member of the ICSC board of directors, accepted the award on the parish's behalf in Dallas, Texas.
According to Michael Murphy, executive director of the ICSC, this award recognizes parishes that give witness to stewardship in many areas of parish life. St. Pius X was one of only five parishes in the country to receive this distinction.
St. Pius X "demonstrated their commitment to exercising stewardship in pastoral areas such as prayer and worship, formation and education, offering hospitality, cultivating leadership, communications and promoting among their parishioners the stewardship of time, talent and treasure," Murphy emphasized.
Scott Bader, vice president of the ICSC and director of parish stewardship for the Archdiocese of Seattle, explained that St. Pius X helps to set the standard in stewardship for parishes nationwide: "St. Pius X Parish is a superb example of how a parish can build up the individual and collective practice of faith through stewardship. The parish is one we definitely suggest others consider emulating."
In 2007, Betsy Quinn, the director of stewardship and evangelization at St. Pius X, oversaw the creation of a stewardship core team, which worked to develop a comprehensive, multiyear strategic plan for stewardship and development. Areas highlighted in the plan include volunteer appreciation, communication, education/catechesis, outreach and welcoming and hospitality.
Specific programs that have resulted from the plan include development of an adult education program, enhancement of the parish welcoming committee, formation of a young adult ministry and expansion of youth activities.
"With a large parish, of over 3,000 families, we are challenged to keep a tight-knit, community feel. By having an ongoing and active stewardship program, we are creating a true Christian atmosphere founded on the pillars of stewardship: hospitality, prayer, formation and service," said Quinn.
She added, "We are always striving for conversion in the hearts of our parishioners, young and old, to embrace the stewardship message: from new parishioners to our founding families, at baptisms and at funerals, in our children's religious education programs and through adult education opportunities, at social events, and, most importantly, at Sunday liturgies. Through the leadership of Father Bill Schooler, Father Bob Lengerich, the parish staff, and the commitment of our dynamic Stewardship Core Team, we are continually finding ways to contribute to the conversion journey."
Father Schooler credited Quinn's leadership as key to the recognition of St. Pius X by the ICSC. "Betsy Quinn is the reason we received this award from the national stewardship council. She has worked tirelessly to promote stewardship as a way of life at St. Pius and to educate parishioners on what it really means to be a good steward."
Quinn, Father Schooler and the St. Pius X community were congratulated by Bishop John D'Arcy for their stewardship efforts. Father Schooler noted that St. Pius X gave the St. Vincent de Paul Society $81,000 in food and direct grants last year. In addition, the parish gives 5 percent of its income to the parish school of St. Adalbert in South Bend and 2 percent to local, national and international needs of the poor annually.
"That truly is an act of faith by the parish," Bishop D'Arcy stressed.

Although the spectral effects of direct and diffuse radiation on solar photovoltaic (PV) performance are relatively well understood, recent investigations have shown that there can be a spectral bias introduced due to albedo from common ground surfaces that can impact the optimal selection of PV materials for a known location. This paper extends analysis to the effects of spectral bias due to the specular reflectivity of 22 commonly occurring surface materials (both man-made and natural) and analyzes the albedo effects on the performance of seven PV materials covering three common PV system topologies: industrial (solar farms), commercial flat rooftops and residential pitched roof applications. An effective albedo is found for each surface material and PV material combination, which can be used in lieu of broadband albedo values in PV simulations. These results enable PV material selection for specific environments enabling geographic optimization for the micro-environment, while at the same time assisting optimal surface selection in the vicinity of existing or planned PV arrays. This analysis is of particular significance for the modeling of performance of bi-facial PV modules and vertical BIPV.

For other uses, see À la carte (disambiguation).
À la carte /ɑːləˈkɑrt/[1] is a French language loan phrase meaning "according to the menu", and used
 - in reference to a menu of items priced and ordered separately, i.e. the usual operation of restaurants. This is in contrast to a table d'hôte, at which a menu with limited or no choice is served at a fixed price.
 - to order an item from the menu on its own, e.g. a steak without the potatoes and vegetables is steak à la carte
 - to describe a retail pricing model in which goods or services traditionally bundled together are separated out, putatively giving the consumer greater choice at lower cost. Examples include airline pricing where in-flight drinks or snacks are not complimentary, on-line music purchasing where individual tracks can be bought instead of entire albums, or pay television where individual channels can be ordered rather than a bundle of channels.
The phrase was adopted into English in 1826, predating by a decade the common use of the French language loanword "menu".[2][3]

Tuesday 12 March, 1–2pm, Dr Garrett Hellenthal, 'Identifying and dating historical admixture events in humans using DNA'
4 March 2013
Gavin de Beer LT, Anatomy Building, UCL
We describe a new method that uses DNA to identify historical events that have shaped present-day populations. In particular, the approach exploits modern large-scale genetic collections to unearth times in the past where two or more genetically distinct groups interacted and exchanged DNA. The method dates precisely when such events occurred, characterizes the amount of DNA exchange, and describes the genetic composition of the (perhaps extinct) groups involved. We highlight the model's advantages over currently available techniques in the field, including its improved parameter estimation and the additional information it contributes beyond any available methods. Our inference, based entirely on DNA, provides a powerful complement to anthropological resources, helping to resolve existing archaeological controversies, determine precisely how much DNA exchange accompanied known historical periods, and discover previously unknown events. We describe an application to data collected from 95 world-wide geographic regions, in which we characterize over 100 DNA exchange events occurring in the past 3000 years.

Top Locations for Crime Scenes in Pittsburgh
Top Locations for Crime Scenes in Pittsburgh
The Pittsburgh Police is the biggest law enforcement group in Western Pennsylvania, and the third in the state. It's no wonder with the historic crime that has been present throughout the city. As of now, there are about 1,000 sworn officers on the police force.
The rate of various crimes in Pittsburgh is well over the national average in many cases, including violence, theft, and assault. Since the 1910s, there has been criminal activity from one particular group that has dominated the city.
The Pittsburgh crime family
The Pittsburgh crime family, also known as the LaRocca's has been around for over one hundred years. They came out of the prohibition era, the same time period as Al Capone. Their beginning acts were to illegally make and sell alcohol. Since this time, the crime family has been linked to gambling rings, drugs, and suspected murders.
The group is fairly transparent about their actions, to an extent. Their members are known, although since the 1990s their numbers have fallen drastically due to conviction and death. There are murders that members have been accused of, but denied.

The areas
There are different areas around Pittsburg that have higher levels of crime. No matter the area you live in, crime is possible. Even though there are areas that have had long histories of crime that are more prone to criminal activity. It doesn't matter where you are, criminal activity can happen.
Many areas of Pittsburgh have above average home prices, even though they also have above average crime rates. The most dangerous area of the city prone to crime scenes is between Mcneilly Road and Sussex Avenue. The area is known for its unique characteristics. The neighborhoods are a unique mix of cultural groups.

Upper St. Clair is a part of the south most tip of Pittsburg. Although it may not be the most dangerous part of Pittsburg, it is no stranger to crime scenes. The Whiskey Rebellion in 1791 started out in Upper St. Clair. Although this wasn't necessarily a crime scene, at the time it was illegal, and it caused a big mess. Which is basically the same thing as a crime scene right?
The police force
A large majority of the Pittsburg police force, over seventy percent, are male. They have the Pittsburg are divided into six zones. Each zone is required to have a certain number of officers present, based on the crime scenes that have been seen in the area. The first four zones require the highest number of officers while the last two zones are a bit safer. This is to ensure the rate of crime scenes diminishes.
A commander, who maintains the peace in their geographic area, leads each zone. Between the six zones, here is a breakdown of what law enforcement officers are present at all times:
 - Thirteen police officers
 - Three detectives
 - One sergeant
 - One lieutenant
This is simply an average across the six zones, but is a good representation of the steps taken to reduce crime in Pittsburgh.
Crime scenes are something you never want to come across. Through proper enforcement, and prevention, crime in Pittsburgh can be reduced. The areas that have become famous as crime scenes can now become known for something else.

Grammar Lesson of the Day: because
Grammar Lesson of the Day: because.
Some years ago I began to notice that my college freshmen had all gotten a very strange idea. They had been taught that one must never begin a sentence with the word because. I have no idea where high school teachers came up with this one. It is like alligators in the Manhattan sewers, or aliens landing in Roswell. Some kook huddled in a condemned building says it, and all at once everybody "knows" it, though it is not in the slightest bit true.
There's nothing special about the word because. It's a subordinating conjunction, like a hundred others. Any of them may begin a sentence – so long as it's a sentence they are beginning. A sentence, whether it begins with because or if or since or although or whenever or while or whatever or whatever, requires a main clause. This is not a sentence:
Because I could not stop for death.
But it's because it lacks a main clause. Let Emily Dickinson supply one:
The "rule" that the teachers have promulgated, besides being in itself utterly absurd, reveals something about all the other grammatical rules and "rules" that our students learn (or "learn"). That is, since grammar is no longer taught systematically, as a coherent discipline that makes sense of how we make sense, it disintegrates into a set of arbitrary directives, some of them incorrect at that, each separate from the other, without rhyme or reason. It is why I say that, unless they've studied Latin or German, none of my college freshmen has been taught grammar.
In any case, why would you want to begin with because? Well, you might want to emphasize the main clause, leaving it to the end, if that contains the idea you are going to develop. That's what Emily Dickinson wanted to do; she wanted to focus on Death's stopping by to give her a ride. But maybe you want to emphasize the material in the subordinate clause. Then you will probably place it after the main clause:
We're off to see the Wizard,
The wonderful Wizard of Oz!
We hear he is a whiz of a wiz
If ever a wiz there was!
If ever if ever a wiz there was
The Wizard of Oz is one because
Because because because because because –
Because of the wonderful things he does!
We're off to see the Wizard,
The wonderful Wizard of Oz!

 Could this be a lack of trust on the part of the professors? I was once told by a pediatrician (no longer our pediatrician) not to kiss my baby's face. As if I could stop. I'm sure she meant "please don't kiss your baby's face if you have pneumonia, or if you have crumbs in your mustache, or if you have just inhaled cigarette smoke." But she can't trust a non-professional bumbling mother or father to understand all the exceptions, so to be safe, she just laid down the law for all time. I imagine that professors find it easier to say "don't start a sentence with because, alright?" than to explain what a sentence fragment is.
 - Tony
 I don't think so, Jamie. It isn't professors who gave out that advice, but schoolteachers. I think they do not know what they are talking about. It's just flat ignorance.
 - Nancy de Flon
 Tony, part of the problem is that not only has none of your freshmen been taught grammar, but also, if you consider the age of many high school and elementary school teachers, they have probably not taught grammar either. We have a situation parallel to that in the Church in which religious ed is being taught to kids by uncatechized catechists. We are hurtling toward a cultural Dark Age.
 - Victor Gallerano
 It seems to me that there is less here than meets the eye: Our fourth graders are taught that they should not begin a sentence with because because they are just coming to terms with simple sentences. Subordination of clauses is too abstract to make sense at that level. In 6th and 7th grade, we correct that notion. "We are moving on, class, now you are able to understand why and how to use a subordinate clause (whether begun by because or some other subordinate conjunction). In the late 7th and 8th grades we teach the various rhetorical values of the syntactical choices one makes in writing.
 I can't speak for "all" your freshmen (really???) but, perhaps some of them weren't listening in the 6th grade when we corrected the because rule. (Has their listening gotten any better, by the way?)
 At any rate, this level of grammar is appropriate to grammar, not high school. The only time grammar is taught "systematically" in high school is during 9th grade when they are trying to re-mediate any gaps or weaknesses in the new freshmen. Needless to say, 9th grade goes to the low-man on the teaching totem pole…and usually the one with gaps and weaknesses of his or her own.

 "why would you want to begin with because? Well, you might want to emphasize the main clause"
 Actually it emphasizes both clauses becuase it inverts the normal sequence. It gives the entire sentence a charge. If anything the first half of the Dickenson line is what's memorable to me, "Because i could not stop for death…" If she had gone with the normal sequence niether halves would be memorable.
 - _URL_ F.R. Duplantier
 Why am I responding to this article? Because I want to. And that's a perfectly grammatical, if elliptical sentence. The rules of grammar are intended for people who have no idea what they're doing, to help them make a better impression and avoid embarrassing themselves too much. They're like paint-by-number canvases or Arthur Murray dance lessons. No one who's any good at anything pores over rule books.

The Ayensuano District Assembly in the Eastern Region yesterday presented sanitary items to the District Directorate of Health Services for distribution to clinics and market places to help prevent the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19).
The District Chief Executive (DCE), Ms Florence Govina, presented the items including "Veronica buckets" liquid soap and other receptacles to the District Director of Health Services, Mrs Esther Larbi Oku-Afari at Coaltar, the district capital.
Ms Govina said it was the assembly's contribution towards efforts at curbing the spread of the virus responsible for the spread of the COVID-19.
She expressed the hope that the health directorate would intensify efforts at prevention and control measures in the district.
Mrs Oku-Afari thanked the DCE for coming to the aid of the health directorate and assured that the items would be put to good use to prevent the people from getting infected.
Ghana has recorded 68 COVID-19 cases with three deaths linked to the disease.
Assemblies have been urged to promote good hygiene to check the spread of the disease by adhering to the health protocols from the Ghana Health Service including regular hand washing, use of alcohol-based hand sanitiSer as well as social distancing by avoiding large gatherings and congregations.
The virus is transmitted through droplets arising from coughing and sneezing from infected persons.


text: The angular distribution of the different cathode materials and gaseous ion flow from vacuum arc plasma is investigated. A metal-vapor-vacuum-arc-type ion source and a time-of-flight mass spectrometer were used. The experiments were performed using a range of different cathode materials, including C, Al, Zn, Cu, Ti, Co, Cr, W, Pb, , , and , over a range of vacuum arc discharge parameters. It was shown that, for all materials, the fraction of singly charged ions on the axis of the system is much less than that of multiply charged ions, but at the edges, the fraction of single-charged ions is greater than that of multiply charged ions; for composite cathodes consisting of light and heavy materials, there were substantially less light atoms on the axis than heavy atoms, while the opposite situation prevailed at the edges, but for cathodes with similar mass, the angular distributions of the materials were very close to each other. The velocities of ions of different materials in the composite cathode were different, but light ions had a higher velocity than those in a pure cathode plasma. With admission of gas, the angular distribution of became more isotropic with increasing pressure, while the metal ion distributions changed only minimally.

 - Select 1 - Hello World Example SAM will generate your project in a new folder.
Step 2: Install a Redis Client
Our only dependency is redis client. Install python redis via pip install redis. Also add redis to requirements.txt.
Step 3: Create a Redis Database
Create a Redis database from Upstash console. Free tier should be enough. It is pretty straight forward but if you need help, check getting started guide. In the database details page, click the Connect button. You will need the endpoint and password in the next step.
Step 4: The function Code
Edit the hello-world>app.py as below:
import json
import redis
r = redis.StrictRedis(
host='YOUR_REDIS_ENDPOINT',
port='YOUR_REDIS_PORT',
password='YOUR_REDIS_PASSWORD',
charset="utf-8",
decode_responses=True)
def lambda_handler(event, context):
counter = r.incr('counter')
 return {
 "statusCode": 200,
 "body": json.dumps({
 "counter": counter,
 }),
}
Replace the "YOUR_REDIS_ENDPOINT", "YOUR_REDIS_PORT" and "YOUR_REDIS_PASSWORD" with your database's endpoint and password which you created in the Step 3. The code simply increments a counter in Redis database and returns its value in json format.
Step 5: Deployment
Now we are ready to deploy our API. First build it via sam build. Then run the command sam local start-api. You can check your API locally on http://127.0.0.1:3000/hello
If it is working, you can deploy your app to AWS by running sam deploy --guided. Enter a stack name and pick your region. After confirming changes, the deployment should begin. The command will output API Gateway endpoint URL, you can check the API in your browser.
You can also check your deployment on your AWS console. You will see your function has been created. Click on your function, you will see the code is uploaded and API Gateway is configured.
Notes
 - Check the template.yaml file. You can add new functions and APIGateway endpoints editing this file.
 - It is a good practice to keep your Redis endpoint and password as environment variable.
 - You can use serverless framework instead of AWS SAM to deploy your function.


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


All peel apart instant products stop developing when you peel them apart. They have an acid layer and a timing layer to reduce alkalinity.
All integral instant products have a timing layer that kicks in roughly 2 - 5 minutes after the pod bursts and this brings the pH down which shuts off development.
All instant products, just like all normal photo products are temperature sensitive and the results vary with temperature.
So, the answer is "NO" they do not develop to completion, but they can suffer from temperature effects which can over or under-develop them.

 What does "700c" mean?
 700c has been a very misunderstood term for a while now and we would like to clarify that for you. The most common issue with this term is confusing it with "700cc". The 700cc is a term for motorcycles referring to their motor power. The words are very similar but the meanings are so different. The term "700c" is the tire size according to the French system. The "700" is stating the diameter of the bicycle tire and "c" is the width size of the tire. However it's not 700 millimeters it's 633 millimeters.
 Also, another common mistake is that often riders confuse "c" with centimeters. 700c's c does not have anything to do with centimeters.
 The alphabetical order is coming from the old French system which starts with the letter "a" and goes through to "d". Size "a" is the narrowest and size "d" is the widest width size for a tire according to this system. Except "c" all other sizes dropped and have not been in use for a long time but "c" stuck because of widely used.Generally you can use 28mm to 35mm wide tires on the 700c rims.
 Another false assumption is that 700c and 29-inch tires are the same. Unfortunately this is not true. "700c" has the same diameter with a 29-inch tire. However, the width of the 700c is narrower than a 29-inch tire. Riders think because their diameters are the same size, the width will also have the same size. If you fall into this mistake your tire unfortunately won't fit into your rim.


Wind Noise / Buffeting
Download PDF
At various speeds, as a window is lowered, passengers could experience a feeling of dizziness or disorientation associated with a "pulsing" sensation of the air inside the vehicle.
This issue, known as buffeting, can occur during both high and low speeds, and is often associated with a change in air pressure inside the vehicles cabin.
There are multiple causes associated with this effect, but it is mainly attributed to the precision streamlining of modern vehicle designs. Many vehicles are designed in conjunction with air flow tests performed under laboratory conditions, inside of a "wind tunnel", which tests the effects of physical vehicle-body design, against airflow and aerodynamics, as it travels at different speeds.
The "buffeting" effect is caused by a sudden change in the aerodynamics of the vehicle, caused by the lowering of a window, which changes how the air is flowing over the surface of the vehicle. The effect can be corrected by raising or closing the offending window to correct the airflow. This effect can also be attributed, to a lesser degree, to the rapid exchange of hotter air inside the vehicle cabin, with the colder outside air, creating a vacuum effect.

The legs, church windows or tears of wine. Many a wine drinker and scientist have swirled the wine through their glass and watched this phenomenon with amazement. What causes the tears? And what do they say about the wine? For a long time, science has not been able to explain exactly how the tears come about, but surface tension, temperature, ridge instability and shock waves (!) seem to give the long-expected complete answer.
Wine is primarily a mixture of water and alcohol. In a wine glass, due to capillary action, the wine crawls up slightly at the side of the glass. The bend wine surface that is formed is called the meniscus (see figure below). The alcohol evaporates faster in the meniscus than in the rest of the glass. This is because the meniscus has a larger surface area in proportion to the volume underneath. As a result, the wine in the meniscus contains less alcohol and relatively much water compared to the wine in the rest of the glass. Water has a higher surface tension than alcohol and therefore "pulls" harder on the surrounding liquid. The gradient that arises from the high-alcohol wine in the glass to low-alcohol wine in the meniscus causes a difference in surface tension. The higher surface tension of the watery wine in the meniscus makes that more wine is pulled up from the glass, resulting in a film layer of wine on the side of the glass.
In 1865 the Italian physicist Carlo Marangoni described this effect in his thesis, and a few years later Josiah Willard Gibbs gave a theoretical thermodynamic description in several articles entitled "On the Equilibrium of Heterogeneous Substances". Since then, the formation of the film layer of wine on the side of a wine glass has been known as the Marangoni-Gibbs effect.
The formation of a wine film layer on the side of a wine glass due to the Marangoni-Gibbs effect. The evaporation of alcohol provides a gradient in the surface tension (λ), and a gradient in the temperature (T) of the film layer on the wall of the glass. The tears of the wine form under the influence of gravity on the ridge of the film layer.
Recent research shows that the Marangoni-Gibbs effect can not only be attributed to the evaporation of the alcohol and the difference in surface tension that arises. Venerus et al. showed in 2015 that the evaporation of the alcohol also causes the wine in the film layer to cool down. The importance of this temperature difference for the Marangoni effect has always been overlooked.
The resulting temperature gradient in the film layer causes the wine to "flow". Just like the warm Gulf Stream that brings warm sea water from the Gulf of Mexico to the northern part of the Atlantic. Similarly, the temperature gradient in the film layer ensures that wine flows up the side of the glass. As such, the temperature difference contributes to the Marangoni-Gibbs effect. The flow rate of the wine in the film layer is therefore dependent on the gradient in surface tension AND the temperature gradient, and both are caused by the evaporation of alcohol1.

This information further clarifies the Marangoni-Gibbs effect, and explains how it is that wine flows up against the side of the glass. But what makes the wine drip down again? Gravity? Yes, but that is a very simplistic representation of reality. How is it that wine specifically forms drops at regular intervals that as tears flow back into the glass?
The ridge, on top of the film layer, falls apart into tears under the influence of gravity. In a 2018 study, Nikolov and his colleagues show that the way in which the ridge of the film layer falls apart corresponds to the theory of the Plateau-Rayleigh-Taylor instability2. This is a mathematical description of the instability that occurs when a liquid with a light density pushes against a liquid with a higher density. In the case of our wine film layer, the film layer is the liquid with a light density that pushes against the wine that forms the ridge and has a higher density. At a certain point the downward pull of gravity on the heavy liquid (that is pulled down more than the light liquid) outweighs the upward force of the light liquid. The heavier liquid breaks through the barrier created by the upward flow of the light fluid and forms tears that stream into the glass. The ridge stability is therefore a balance between gravity and the upward pressure of the light liquid.
A simplistic representation of the Plateau-Rayleigh-Taylor instability on the basis of which the wine tears form according to Nikolov et al.. The ridge of the film layer (dark red) has a higher density than the film layer (light red) that under the influence of the Marangoni effect is formed and flows up.
However, the last question that remains is: what makes that the film layer has two different densities, creating a ridge that falls apart into tears?
The film layer is created by the Marangoni effect, and the tears are caused by the instability of the ridge of the film layer. But how is it possible that this ridge is created at the top of the film layer? According to Dukler et al. of the University of California, a shock wave through the film layer causes the formation of the ridge and the subsequent tears3. A "reverse undercompressive shockwave", that is. Dukler and his colleagues have developed a theoretical model that shows how this shock wave (in theory) arises from the evaporation of alcohol in the film layer and moves from the meniscus to the ridge of the film layer. A characteristic of this atypical shock wave is that the density of the liquid behind the wave is lower than before the wave. A situation thus arises that the ridge of the film layer has a higher density than the film layer below. And let this be THE starting point for the Plateau-Rayleigh-Taylor instability as described above.
"After removing the cover, [from a glass filled with port wine] evaporation quickly increases, inciting a "reverse" front to climb out of the meniscus, followed by the formation of wine tears falling back into the bulk. The forming front is characterized by a depression, i.e. the film ahead of the front is thicker than the film behind it. It is in a sense, a "dewetting" front that leaves a thinner layer behind it."[Dukler, 2019]
The researchers tested their theory by looking at the formation of tears in a stemless Martini glass with Port wine. The shock wave was perceptible (see the figure below) and preceded the tears of the wine. The researchers applied some simplifications for the model, but also for the experiment. For example, a martini glass is used because this glass has a constant angle, and the model assumes a constant gradient in the surface tension (caused by the evaporation of the alcohol). The effect in different wine glasses with a convex surface (and in particular the theory behind it) needs to be further investigated.
The ridge of the film layer and therefore also the tears of the wine are caused by a shock wave. The top four photos show from left to right how a wave front forms out of the meniscus and stabilizes in the tears of the wine after 10 seconds. In the lower left photo you can see a close-up of the shock waves that run to the ridge at the top of the film layer. The term "rarefaction" indicates the zone in which the density of the wine is lower than in the rim due to the shock wave. The figure below on the right shows the stemless Martini glass as used by Dukler et al. to test their theory.

What do the tears say?
As the theory above shows, the speed with which the alcohol evaporates is particularly important for the formation of tears. This evaporation depends on the amount of alcohol in the wine, but for example also on room temperature, wine temperature, humidity and air pressure. In general, the more alcohol the wine contains, the more tears there are. However, it is difficult to keep all these conditions constant, and in a mountain village, or on a rainy day, the formation of tears will proceed differently than on a beautiful sunny day at the beach.
The speed with which the tears flow back into the glass says something about the viscosity of the wine. The slower the tears drip down, the syrupier the wine. This syrupiness depends among other things on the amount of alcohol, sugar and glycerol in the wine. Alcohol, but especially glycerol and sugar, increase the viscosity.
Read now: Chardonnay arose through inbreeding!
All these different variables make it very difficult to conclude anything based on the tears of the wine about the contents of the wine glass. Provided that you do not only have the alcohol content as a criterion, then the tears of the wine say nothing at all about the quality of the wine.
The tears are the secondary effect of the evaporation of alcohol from the wine. With the evaporation of the alcohol, however, all kinds of aromas also evaporate. The wine derives its scent (bouquet) from the evaporation of these aroma substances. Knowledge about the formation of tears, and therefore the evaporation of alcohol in the wine glass, can contribute

Earth Girl Volcano
This new FREE interactive game for OS and Windows computers may be downloaded from these links (55MB zip file):
Earth Girl Volcano is our new interactive game about making strategic decisions that minimize risk in communities exposed to volcanic hazards. This casual strategy game is focused on hazard preparedness and response skills, and it was developed by an interdisciplinary team. The game is inspired by real-life situations in communities located near volcanoes throughout the Pacific Ring of Fire. The game allows players to prepare for emergency evacuations and respond during volcanic hazards such as ash fall, mudflows and burning clouds. The simple and straightforward gameplay engages our core audience of 7-13 year-old kids and adults.
Volcanoes are majestic but they also pose a serious hazard to nearby communities, and the Earth Girl Volcano app provides an environment for proactive learning about volcanic risk. Players can experience and explore a variety of volcanic hazards and evacuation scenarios including lightly populated small villages, towns with high-rise buildings and even industrial parks. Players can explore, think and experiment outside the traditional learning setting. This makes Earth Girl Volcano the perfect companion for informal learning about volcanic risk, disaster management and preparedness.
The side-scrolling game has colorful graphics and 27 different experiences, and it runs on Windows or iOS computers and Android or iOS tablets. The game will be available in late September in three languages: English, Spanish and Italian. Before the end of 2018 we plan to have the Tagalog (Philippines) and Indonesian versions. Stay tuned for a link to download your Earth Girl Volcano game!

Need a Windchill Data Object that is not defined by having a document or cad object.
I would like to see a pure data object created in Windchill PDMLink for creating information that is not derived from creating a WTDocument or an EPMDocument. So that data can be created in the same way that one would within any other database application through the use of a input form, attributes to create a data record. This data object type should have the ability to be sub-typed and also linked to other objects (WTDocument, EPMDocument, etc..).

Engineering creates and captures a lot of data that is recorded on spreadsheets that would be more useful downstream if in a database, however in most cases when this happens it is usually create in a standalone database separated from Windchill and becomes another island of information that eventually gets disconnected from the downstream process. Adding the ability to create this data in Windchill would be very useful to the overall engineering and manufacturing process.

Triggers' default behavior in Uniface 10
With the release of patch F205 for Uniface 10.2.02, the Uniface 10 compiler has changed to ensure compatibility with Uniface 9 for triggers having default behavior. This blog explains when and how Uniface handles 'empty' triggers and invokes default behavior.
A small subset of the triggers in the Uniface model (*) falls back on default behavior if these triggers do not contain executable code. A typical example is the On Error trigger for a field or entity. If you do not define the trigger, the Uniface run time engine will still invoke default handling for error situations. If the trigger has been defined with executable code, only that code is executed, and the default behavior is suppressed.
(*) see the Uniface documentation, section "Triggers with Default Behavior" for the complete list of applicable triggers.
When does a trigger *not* have executable code and revert to default behavior?
In Uniface 10, default behavior is invoked if any of the following conditions is true:
 - the trigger is not declared at all
 - the trigger declaration contains no executable code
 - the trigger declaration only contains one or more pre-compiler directives that do not result in executable code
 - the trigger is undeclared.
Some examples:
Uniface Trigger
Uniface Trigger
Uniface Trigger
Uniface Trigger
What is the impact of the Uniface Inheritance model, how to restore default behavior?
Behavior defined in code containers is inherited at 'lower' or 'derived' levels. Examples:
 - a modeled entity subtype and its fields inherit from a supertype and its fields
 - a component can inherit from a modeled component (called component template in Uniface 9)
 - an entity or a field in a component's data structure inherits from the modeled entity or field.
Inheritance can take place over multiple levels, but that's beyond the scope of this blog.
In Uniface 10, inheritance of code in containers is module-based. Code is contained in explicitly-declared triggers, entries and operations. If a trigger is declared again on the inheriting level, that definition takes preference and replaces the definition that was inherited from the higher level.
To suppress an inherited trigger in Uniface 10, use any of the options described above: declare an empty trigger, declare a trigger with comment only, or undeclare the trigger on the lower level. An 'empty' trigger or undeclared trigger will fall back on default behavior if that is applicable for that trigger.
The following table shows some examples:
Modeled Field trigger error Component field trigger error Result
not declared not declared Default error handling
trigger error
end
not declared Default error handling
trigger error
if ($error = 0105)
… some code
return -1
endif
not declared User defined error handling
trigger error
if ($error = 0105)
… some code
return -1
endif
trigger error
end
Default error handling
trigger error
if ($error = 0105)
… some code
return -1
endif
undeclare trigger error
end
Default error handling
What has changed since patch F205?
With the solution for Issue # 31689 in patch F205 (Uniface 10.2.02), explicitly-declared triggers that are effectively empty now fall back on default behavior, if that is applicable for that trigger.
Before this patch, an explicitly declared trigger in Uniface 10 without executable code or with comment only would not only break inheritance, but also suppress its default behavior. Prior to F205, the only way to ensure that default behavior was invoked was to not declare the trigger or to undeclare the trigger. In case of inheritance of a trigger from a higher level, the only way to restore default behavior on the lower level was to undeclare the trigger.
What has changed since patch F206?
In patch F206 the automatic migration logic in Uniface 10 was changed to benefit from the modifications in patch F205.
Before patch F206, the migration would attempt to assess whether a trigger container coming from Uniface 9 with potential default behavior contained comment or entry declarations only. If so, the trigger would be commented out or undeclared. This approach was not watertight and had a few disadvantages, like adding code during the migration ('code pollution') and causing additional compiler warnings compared to Uniface 9.
When migrating a Uniface 9.6 or 9.7 export file into Uniface 10 after installing patch F206, all triggers, including those with potential default behavior, are migrated 'as is'.
Patch F205 is compatible with code migrated into a Uniface 10 using a patch prior to F206, i.e. there is no need to redo the migration. However, if you want to benefit from the changes in the migration, you should migrate after installing patch F206 or higher.
Uniface's use of Authenticode
In this blog post I discuss how Uniface uses Authenticode for signing Uniface executables on the Windows platform. A word on the merits of signing your executables. Code signing is nothing more than taking an executable and calculating a checksum, attaching that checksum in a cryptographically secure way to the executable. This way any customer can be assured of the integrity of the code they download from Uniface's download server: it has not been tampered with nor was it altered while in transit. The use of a public-private key certificate from a reputable vendor adds the advantage that you can rest assured the code you downloaded really originated from Uniface.
Designing code signing requires you to take a step back revisiting your existing processes to identify potential issues. Any statements on the integrity of the code can only be satisfied if you manage your code signing keys in a defined way. We have a defined process of managing where keys reside, who has access to them and what people having access can do. Keys reside in a physically secured location, with access being controlled and limited to a small group of people in the company. Only these people can get their hands on the Uniface code signing keys for a limited set of defined purposes. Strict logging is in place so that key usage can be reviewed from audit logs.
The Uniface build factory consists of machines, that take source code from a version control system and run the build scripts to produce signed executables. The code signing is run directly from our makefiles. We use a set of 'internal' certificates when building Uniface. Machines that are part of the Uniface build factory have access to the 'internal' certificate and physical access to the build machine is limited. Only Windows executables that were produced in an official build can thus be signed using this 'internal' certificate. The certificate is only valid within the Uniface development lab. Outside the Uniface development lab a machine with Windows installed would lack the Uniface development lab 'root' certificate, which is needed to build a trust chain required to validate executables signed with the 'internal' certificate. Once we package a Uniface q-patch, patch, service pack or distribution, we also sign these deliverables. This effectively seals the package and protects its contents from unauthorized modifications.
We also timestamp all files, which means all signed files also carry an official counter signature with a timestamp. Should there be an irregularity, forcing us to withdraw our software, we can do this by revoking our certificate. This comes in two flavours: Either we fully revoke a certificate, or we revoke the certificate from a certain cut off timestamp. When the certificate is fully revoked, all files signed with this certificate become invalid and hence cannot be trusted anymore. If the exact moment in time when the irregularity occurred is known, we can revoke the certificate from this moment in time. This results in all files signed after this moment to become invalid. Files signed before this moment in time remain valid.
When we decide that a package is ready for shipping to our customers, we go through a process of re-signing such a package with our 'external' certificate. This is done as part of the publication process. What we do is check every file in the package to see if it was signed using the Uniface 'internal' certificate. If a file was signed with the 'internal' certificate, it is resigned using our 'external' certificate. This 'external' certificate was obtained from a reputable vendor and the public key of the root certificate from that vendor is present in every Windows distribution. Hence using public-private key encryption, your Windows distribution can check that files that we have signed in our Uniface distribution have not been modified since we signed them and that the software is actually from us. So the next time you install Uniface, you can be sure the software is fine.
Uniface 10: What's happened since the release?
Back in September 2016 we had quite a major event, Uniface 10 was released with the ability to develop and maintain all forms of Uniface applications – Client Server, Web and batch.
Uniface 10
Since the release, and based on lots of feedback from the early adopters, we have continued to actively enhance the IDE with constant incremental improvements. In this blog post, I would like to share with you what these improvements are as well as what we have planned for the near future.
To start, it is probably a good idea to give some high-level topics we have been concentrating on.
Migration
This topic has probably been our primary focus during the continuous updating of v10. We have always had a migration path between Uniface versions automating any updates needed.


Grace Murray Hopper
Grace Murray Hopper (December 9, 1906 – January 1, 1992) was an American computer scientist and United States Navyrear admiral.[1] She was one of the first programmers of the Harvard Mark I computer in 1944,[2] and invented the firstcompiler for a computer programming language,[3][4][5][6][7]and the one of those who popularized the idea of machine-independent programming languages, which led to the development of COBOL, one of the first high-level programming languages. She is credited with popularizing the term "debugging" for fixing computer glitches (inspired by an actual mothremoved from the computer). Owing to the breadth of her accomplishments and her naval rank, she is sometimes referred to as "Amazing Grace".[8][9] The U.S. Navy Arleigh Burke class guided-missile destroyer USS Hopper (DDG-70) is named for her, as was the Cray XE6 "Hopper" supercomputer at NERSC.


Women have 39% smaller pension pots
New research has revealed the pensions gender gap is more than double the difference between men and women's average earnings, with women having significantly smaller pension pots.
Profile Pensions' analysis of 20,000 customers discovered the gap is such that it means men can expect to retire on an average of £21,800 per year compared to women, for whom it is £16,900.
Worryingly, one in six women will retire with an income lower than £9,998, which social policy and research charity Joseph Rowntree Foundation states should be the minimum amount for a single pensioner.
The pension gender gap was found to be at its widest in Northern Scotland, where men have an average pension value of £41,603. This is nearly double the size of the average woman's, which is £20,978.
The region with the lowest pension gender gap is Greater London, where the value of the average man's pension pot is 30% higher than the average woman's (£48,778 compared to £34,174).
Overall, the report found UK women hold 39% less in their pension pots than men.
The gap is attributed to women being paid less, and contributing a correspondingly smaller amount each month into their pension savings.
With the report finding differences in pension contributions can be as high as 50% in some cases, it also blamed the fact more women work in part-time employment, plus the fact they are more likely to take time out of the workplace to have children.
In addition, it showed more women were likely to be employed at below the auto-enrolment threshold of £10,000 per annum.
Commenting on the research, Michelle Gribbin, chief investment officer at Profile Pensions, said: "What we see with these findings, sadly, is that the gender pay gap and the gender pension gap go hand in hand."
She said: "Men, on average, earn more than women, and therefore can save and receive larger contributions from employers into their pension pot. It's clear there's much more to be done to help women gain the security they need going into retirement."
She added: "Under current UK law, employers contribute 3% to the employee's pension pot, 4% comes direct from their payroll and the remaining 1% is made up by tax relief. Employees are able to decrease or increase this anytime that they see fit."

Slurry sampling electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometric determination of palladium in water using biosorption with inactive baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Inactive cells of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae were used for palladium preconcentration. The conditions for biosorption of palladium and its determination in yeast cells by slurry electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) were optimised. The best sensitivity of measurements and stability of slurry were obtained by using a mechanical agitation (10 minutes) and a mixture of 0.3 mol l−1 thiourea – 1 mol l−1 HCl – 0.5% Triton X-100 as suspension medium. The repeatability of the measurements of Pd in yeast slurry was 6.5% (n = 10). For the quantification of analyte in spiked water samples, the standard addition method was used.


per shard or five read transactions per second. All applications reading from the stream share the read capacity. You can use the enhanced fan-out feature to scale the number of consuming applications and make sure that each has a dedicated 2 MB per second connection.
This post uses the preceding application as an example. It's estimated that producers create data records at a rate of 20,000 KB per second, and your consumer nodes need to process this same amount of data at the other end of the stream. In addition to handling these rates, it is a good idea to add extra capacity to give the stream headroom for growth.
This headroom also helps your application recover faster in scenarios that could cause a delay or a pause in ingesting or processing data. These scenarios may include:
 - Deploying a new version of a consumer application
 - Transient network issues
As these nodes work to catch up after recovery, they produce or consume records at a higher than standard rate, requiring higher capacity. For this example, you can add 25% percent, or five shards, for headroom. Shards are cost-efficient, but it is up to you how many you want to add.
Scaling scenario
At the time of the game's release, this capacity is deemed sufficient for the application. Ingestion and processing of the data are both running smoothly, and the game's leaderboards are populated with current data. It's now a few weeks after release; the game is steadily gaining popularity and concurrent player numbers are increasing. In a scenario such as this, it's important to have sufficient monitoring to detect the increased load so you can increase throughput by scaling the stream.
The following diagram provides a simplified view of using CloudWatch metrics to monitor your data streams and triggering scaling operations
In this example, these scaling issues could manifest in delayed leaderboard update reports. Because shards are the capacity units in a data stream, each shard's capacity is independent of other shards. If the producers write to a single shard at a rate higher than 1 MB per second or 1,000 records per second, that shard becomes a hot shard and requests exceeding that capacity get throttled, leading to a delay in leaderboard updates. This condition can happen while other shards in the stream are underutilized, so if you are monitoring metrics at the stream level, you may not see any cause for concern, because the stream overall is ingesting data at a rate below its total capacity of 25 MB per second. Amazon Kinesis enables you to seamlessly scale your stream without interrupting your streaming pipeline.
Core concepts that enable scaling
You can write records to a data stream using Put APIs. To write a single record, use PutRecord; to write multiple records, use PutRecords. When executing either one, the request to the Kinesis API has to include the following three components:
 - The stream name.
 - The data record to write to the stream. For this post, this is the scoring result of a particular round in the game.
 - A partition key (for example, the fame session).
The following diagram shows multiple producers writing to a Kinesis data stream. The partition key value is used in combination with a hash function to determine the shard a given record will be written to.
The partition key determines to which shard the record is written. The partition key is a Unicode string with a maximum length of 256 bytes. Kinesis runs the partition key value that you provide in the request through an MD5 hash function. The resulting value maps your record to a specific shard within the stream, and Kinesis writes the record to that shard. Partition keys dictate how to distribute data across the stream and use shards.
Certain use cases require you to partition data based on specific criteria for efficient processing by the consuming applications. As an example, if you use player ID pk1234 as the hash key, all scores related to that player route to shard1. The consuming application can use the fact that data stored in shard1 has an affinity with the player ID and can efficiently calculate the leaderboard. An increase in traffic related to players mapped to shard1 can lead to a hot shard. Kinesis Data Streams allows you to handle such scenarios by splitting or merging shards without disrupting your streaming pipeline.
If your use cases do not require data stored in a shard to have high affinity, you can achieve high overall throughput by using a random partition key to distribute data. Random partition keys help distribute the incoming data records evenly across all the shards in the stream and reduce the likelihood of one or more shards getting hit with a disproportionate number of records. You can use a universally unique identifier (UUID) as a partition key to achieve this uniform distribution of records across shards. This strategy can increase the latency of record processing if the consumer application has to aggregate data from multiple shards.
Kinesis Data Streams scaling mechanisms
The stream remains fully functional during these actions. Producers and consumers can continue to read and write to the stream during the scaling process.
Upon receiving the scaling request, Kinesis sets the stream status to Updating. You can use the DescribeStreams API to check the stream status. When the operation is complete, the stream status shows as Active.
The SplitShard action splits one active shard into two shards, increasing the read and write capacity of the stream. This can be helpful if there is an expected increase in the number of records ingested into the stream or so more Kinesis Data Streams applications can simultaneously read data from the stream for real-time processing.
SplitShard facilitates that process. The hash key space of the parent shard also splits. The two new shards accept new data records and the parent shard stops accepting new records. Existing records in the parent shard are retained for the duration of the stream retention period (the default is 24 hours, configurable up to 7 days). You must specify the new-starting-hash-key value when issuing this command. This value determines the point of the split within the parent shard's hash key space. In most cases, you want to do an even split. However, you might need to do an uneven split if you have unbalanced shards that you want to rebalance, for example. The following diagram shows the SplitShard process in action.
Many streaming workloads have variable data flow rates that fluctuate over time, sometimes following daily, weekly, or seasonal patterns. As you monitor your data flow rates, you may see underutilized shards that, if merged, still have a data flow rate below the shard limits, yet reduce the cost of the stream.
The MergeShards action merges two adjacent shards, producing one shard. Two shards are considered adjacent if the hash key spaces for the two form a contiguous set with no gaps. When the two shards merge, their hash key spaces also merge. The new shard starts accepting new data records. The two parent shards stop accepting new records and retain existing records up to the stream's configured retention period. The following diagram shows the MergeShards process in action.
The UpdateShardCount action is useful when you need to scale your stream, up or down, to a specific number of shards, and you provide that number as a parameter in the API call. Scaling in increments of 25% of the current capacity (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) helps the operation complete faster, but is not required. The command executes a series of SplitShard and MergeShards actions as needed to reach the explicit number of shards you specified. This command splits shard hash key space evenly, creating shards of equal size. There is no option to choose a different value.
Additionally, the Kinesis Scaling Utility available on GitHub provides autoscaling for Kinesis Data Streams by monitoring a stream's Amazon CloudWatch metrics and scaling it up or down accordingly. It can scale a stream by an explicit shard count or as a percentage of the total fleet. There is no requirement for you to manage the allocation of the key space to shards when using this API; it happens automatically.
Balancing shards
After completing a scaling operation, check the distribution of the hash key space in your stream. In most use cases, the hash key space should be evenly distributed across the shards in the stream. Errors in calculating or inputting a shard's hash key space starting value can lead to creating new shards with an unusually large or small hash key space. Unusually large shards receive a high number of read and write requests, leading to throttling and underutilizing the unusually small shards.
The output of the ListShards API lists the starting and ending hash key value for each shard in the stream. You can use these values to identify unbalanced shards, and perform the necessary splits or merges to balance them. The Kinesis Scaling Utility can also generate a report of shard key space sizes that can help you achieve the same result. See the following code:

Bheka Bhujangasana
Definition - What does Bheka Bhujangasana mean?
Bheka bhujangasana is a beginner to intermediate backbend that's a variation of bhujangasana, a pose that's foundational to many styles of yoga. The name comes from the Sanskrit, bheka, meaning "frog"; bhujanga, meaning "serpent," "snake" or "cobra"; and asana, which means "pose" or "posture."
To practice bheka bhujangasana, begin in balasana (child's pose). The soles of the feet are drawn together as the knees drop to opposite sides. The arms are straightened as the back and neck arch.
In English, it is known as frog cobra pose.
Bheka Bhujangasana
Yogapedia explains Bheka Bhujangasana
In a variation of the arm position that creates a less intense backbend, the elbows rest on the ground and the hands are held in namaste (prayer position) with the chin resting on the upward-pointing fingers.
In addition to stretching the back, legs and hips and opening the chest, bheka bhujangasana reduces stress and anxiety. It is also believed to open three of the chakra energy centers: the svadisthana (sacral) chakra, anahata (heart) chakra and visuddha (throat) chakra. Svadisthana is the center of creative and sexual energy. Anahata is associated with love, compassion and empathy. Visuddha is the first of the spiritual chakras and is associated with higher truth and authentic expression.

Yes. The frightened condition and the damage caused by the spell are separate.
I read the (amended) spell description as follows:
You tap into the nightmares of a creature you can see within range and create an illusory manifestation of its deepest fears, visible only to that creature.
- The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the target becomes frightened for the duration.
- At the end of each of the target's turns before the spell ends, the target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw
or take 4d10 psychic damage. On a successful save, the spell ends.
Crucially, successful save in the last sentence refers only to the Wisdom saving throw mentioned in the previous sentence; it's describing the corresponding outcome for success to the clause describing failure in the preceding sentence.
Thus, nothing in the spell description makes the psychic damage or the spell duration conditional upon the target being susceptible to the frightened condition. Likewise, if the target was immune to psychic damage but not to the frightened condition, they would still be frightened for the spell's duration.
Since the ongoing psychic damage is independent of the frightened condition, that part of the spell continues to apply if the target is frightened and later becomes immune to being frightened, or has that condition removed.
Contrast this with the description of Fear: (PHB, p. 239)
Each creature in a 30-foot cone must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or... become frightened for the duration.
While frightened by this spell, a creature must take the Dash action and move away from you by the safest available route on each of its turns, unless there is nowhere to move. If the creature ends its turn in a location where it doesn't have line of sight to you, the creature can make a Wisdom saving throw. On a successful save, the spell ends for that creature.
Fear is similar to Phantasmal Killer in that it initially imposes a condition on the target(s), and then has additional effects on each of the targets' turns. But, unlike Phantasmal Killer, Fear makes it clear that the ongoing effects are conditional on the initial condition by using the conditional phrase "While frightened by this spell... ". There is no such condition applied to the ongoing damage effect of Phantasmal Killer, so it doesn't seem reasonable to read the spell as having the first saving throw mitigate all of the further described effects.
Thus, the target of Phantasmal Killer makes a save when the spell is cast, and is frightened if it fails, and they make a save on each of their turns while the spell is in effect. As soon as they succeed on any of the second kind of saves, the spell ends (and it will also end if the caster loses concentration, or one minute passes).

Drill down in a graph
Drill down enables you to focus on a specific measurement within your graph and display it according to a desired grouping. The available groupings depend on the graph. For example, the Average Transaction Response Time graph shows one line per transaction. To determine the response time for each Vuser, you drill down on one transaction and sort it according to Vuser ID. The graph displays a separate line for each Vuser's transaction response time.
Note: The drill down feature is not available for the Web Page Diagnostics graph.
The following graph shows a line for each of five transactions.
When you drill down on the MainPage transaction, grouped by Vuser ID, the graph displays the response time only for the MainPage transaction, one line per Vuser.
You can see from the graph that the response time was longer for some Vusers than for others.
To determine the response time for each host, you drill down on one transaction and sort it according to host. The graph displays a separate line for the transaction response time on each host. For more information on drilling down in a graph, see Get more information from graph data.
