problem is when Outlook starts asking for the user credentials, even if the correct password is specified. It looks like this: after starting Outlook it successfully connects to the on-premises Exchange server (or Office 365 mailbox), the user sees a list of folders in the mailbox and new emails in the Inbox. But after a few minutes of normal work, a window appears for entering the user name and password. The user enters the password and presses OK, but the window with the prompt to enter the credentials appears again. By clicking the "Cancel" button, the user can continue to work with Outlook, but after a while the window asking for the password pops up again (sometimes the user account may be locked at the same time). The problem occurs in different versions of Outlook (2019/2016/365) and Windows (there was a problem in both Windows 7/8.1 and Windows 10).
Outlook 2016 keeps asking for a password
Most admins in this case try to recreate the mail profile, reinstall Office – but this usually does not help. Outlook periodicity still requires the user to enter a password.
Let's look into several ways that can help you to remove the annoying password request window in Outlook. First of all, of course, you need to make sure that the user enters the correct password, and didn't forget it.
Also, try to connect to your mailbox through the web interface (OWA) and log in. Perhaps the problem is that the user password has expired (the password has expired according to the domain password policy settings) and must be changed.
Clear Saved Outlook Credentials
Check if you have Outlook saved passwords stored in the Windows Credential Manager, try to delete them all. To do this, go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\User Accounts\Manage your credential -> Windows Credentials. Find the saved passwords for Outlook/Office in the Generic Credentials list and remove them.
clear outlook saved credentials
To directly access Credential Manager, run the command:
rundll32.exe keymgr.dll,KRShowKeyMgr
saved passwords in the Credential Manager
Disable "Always Prompt for Credentials" Option in Outlook
Open your Outlook Account Settings (File -> Account Settings -> Account Settings), double click on your Exchange account. Go to More settings -> select Security tab. Clear the checkbox Always prompt for credentials in the User identification section.
If you have an Office 365 mailbox connected, this tab should have an additional "Logon network security" field. Make sure that "Anonymous Authentication" is not selected.
Always prompt for credentials
Outlook Anywhere and NTLM authentication
If your Outlook is configured to access the Exchange mailbox using Outlook Anywhere (MAPI over HTTP), verify that NTLM authentication is used. At the same time, you need to check the authentication type used for the IIS site on the Exchange server.
If the computer with a problem Outlook is not joined to the Active Directory domain, then on the contrary, you should try to switch from NTLM authentication to Basic.
Outlook: Disable Office 365 Autodiscover
Somewhere in the fall of 2016, an update was released for Outlook 2016 that enabled a mandatory check of the Office 365 cloud connection point. You can verify this by using the Fiddler or TCPView tools and track the attempts to connect to the autodiscover-s.outlook.com and outlook.office365.com servers.
To disable this check, go to the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software \Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\AutoDiscover and create new DWORD parameter named ExcludeExplicitO365Endpoint and value 1. Restart Outlook.
The ExcludeExplicitO365Endpoint registry parameter is applicable to Outlook 2016 version 16.0.6741.2017 and newer (this parameter is additional to the list of parameters that determine the types of Autodiscover processes when Outlook starts.
You can make changes to the registry with the following command:
reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\x.0\Outlook\AutoDiscover /t REG_DWORD /v ExcludeExplicitO365Endpoint /d 1
Or, using the PowerShell cmdlet Set-ItemProperty:
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\AutoDiscover" -Name 'ExcludeExplicitO365Endpoint' -Value 1 -Type DWORD –Force
Change Office 365 User Authentication Method
If your mailbox has been migrated from on-premises Exchange to Office 365 or you have two mailboxes connected in Outlook (one from the on-premises Exchange, the second from Office 365) and you use an RPC connection, in this case Outlook doesn't use Modern Authentication (also used for MFA). In this case, your credentials are sent to Office 356 instead of token. To force Outlook to use modern authentication for RPC connections, you need to add the AlwaysUseMSOAuthForAutoDiscover DWORD parameter with the value 1 to the registry key HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Exchange.
Set-ItemProperty -Path " HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Exchange" -Name 'AlwaysUseMSOAuthForAutoDiscover' -Value 1 -Type DWORD -Force The registry settings can be deployed to domain computers using a GPO.
Ensure that a Modern Authentication is enabled for your Office 365 account in the Office 365 Admin Center (Settings -> Services & add-ins).
enable office 365 modern authentication
If on the contrary you want to completely disable Modern Authentication in Outlook 2016/2019/365 (this authentication method should be disabled in the Admin Center), you need to configure the following registry settings: This method should help to fix problems with constantly requested credentials in Outlook 2016/2019 with Office 365 mailbox connected.
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\Identity" -Name EnableAdal -Value 0 -Type DWORD –Force
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\Identity" -Name DisableADALatopWAMOverride -Value 1 -Type DWORD –Force
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\Identity" -Name DisableAADWAM -Value 1 -Type DWORD –Force
Recreate Your Outlook Profile
If all of these methods above did not help you get rid of the problem, try to delete and recreate your Outlook profile. You can create a new Outlook profile using the Mail icon in the Control Panel or using the outlook.exe /manageprofiles command.
re-create outlook profile using mail app
If the Mail app icon is missing in Control Panel, it can be restored this way.
Temporary Disable Your Anti-virus and Firewall Protection
Perhaps the Exchange connection problem is caused by your anti-virus or firewall software. Try to temporarily disable it and check whether Outlook continues to prompts a password.
Poor Network Connection to Exchange Server
A poor and unstable network connection to the Exchange server and/or domain controller can also be a source of periodic password requests in Outlook. You can test the network performance using the iperf tool.
Also check the computer time, it should differ from the time on the domain controller for no more than 5 minutes. If more, check the NTP time synchronization scheme in your domain.

Using Visual Studio Code Instead of PowerShell ISE _URL_ _URL_ Wed, 16 Sep 2020 14:00:00 +0000 _URL_ Most administrators use the PowerShell ISE (Integrated Scripting Environment) to build their PowerShell scripts. But by now Microsoft has almost stopped developing PowerShell ISE and recommends using a more powerful, convenient, flexible and free tool instead — Visual Studio Code (VS Code). In this post, we'll cover how to install, configure and use Visual Studio Code instead of PowerShell ISE to run your PowerShell commands as well as to develop and test complex PowerShell scripts.
VS Code is a cross-platform development environment with a lot of extensions you can use to create a code almost on any programming language. VS Code has the integrated Git support and a vast number of features to work with your code and debug it.
You can download VSCode for free following this link: _URL_ Download the VSCodeSetup-x64 installation file (about 53MB) and run it.
VSCode installation does not cause any problems. However, it is recommended to add paths to Visual Studio Code to the environment variable PATH during the installation.
install visual studio code
After starting Visual Studio Code, you will have to install a special free extension that supports PowerShell language — ms-vscode.PowerShell (_URL_
This extension gives you advanced options to work with your PowerShell code: syntax-highlighting, snippets, automatic command hinting (IntelliSense), integrated help and cmdlet browser, interactive script debugging, etc.
You can install the extension from the Extension menu in the left sidebar. Search by powershell key and install the PowerShell extension: Develop PowerShell scripts in Visual Studio Code.

How economic, humanitarian, and religious concerns shape European attitudes toward asylum seekers
What types of asylum seekers are Europeans willing to accept? We conducted a conjoint experiment asking 18,000 eligible voters in 15 European countries to evaluate 180,000 profiles of asylum seekers that randomly varied on nine attributes. Asylum seekers who have higher employability, have more consistent asylum testimonies and severe vulnerabilities, and are Christian rather than Muslim received the greatest public support. These results suggest that public preferences over asylum seekers are shaped by sociotropic evaluations of their potential economic contributions, humanitarian concerns about the deservingness of their claims, and anti-Muslim bias. These preferences are similar across respondents of different ages, education levels, incomes, and political ideologies, as well as across the surveyed countries. This public consensus on what types of asylum seekers to accept has important implications for theory and policy.

rior with a bow," or "archer".
6. Ragnar
A beautifully unique name you're unlikely to find elsewhere in the world. Ragnar is a version of the Germanic name "Raginheri". Ragnar means strong or "army".
7. Sigge
Short for Sigurd, Sixten, Sigvard or Sigfrid, we think this would be a great name for a rock star in the making. Sigge means "victory" in Sweden, and it can also translate to "Victory Bear" or "Victorious Protection." An alternative spelling in the UK might be "Ziggy."
8. Torgny
This is another great name if you want your child to really stand out at school. Torgny means "Thor's noise," or "Thor's Loud Weapon" and it can even have connections to thunder and lightning, the weapons Thor uses.
9. Viggo
Viggo is starting to gain some recognition around the world, but it's still most popular in Sweden and other parts of Scandinavia. Also spelled "Wiggo," the title comes from the Old Norse name, Vigge, which meant "battle" or "fight."
Swedish Boy Names 5
Popular Swedish male names for legends
As mentioned above, Swedish male names have a lot of different roots. Some come from Germanic names, while others are linked to Christianity. Although some of the most popular titles refer to the legendary gods and myths the Vikings of old used to tell
Here are some popular Swedish names for men, inspired by legends.
1. Ansgar
A powerful name with a lot of audio impact, Ansgar is a Germanic name most common in Sweden and Norway. The term translates to mean "god spear" or spear of the gods, making it a fierce title for a young Swedish boy.
2. Balder
In Iceland, the moniker "Baldr" means price, or light. In Sweden, and other parts of Scandinavia using the Old Norse translation, it refers to a god of Norse mythology. Balder was the god of light, love, happiness, and beauty.
3. Gösta
Popular in both Sweden and Finland, for male and female children, Gösta used to be a pet name or a term of endearment before it became a real given name. It means "Staff of the Geats" or essentially staff of the Gods.
4. Ingemar
Ingmar, or Ingemar is a Scandinvian name which combines Ing (Norse god) and the word Mar, which means famous. Most Swedish experts agree it means something like "famous God", but the title doesn't refer to a specific deity.
5. Mats
Similar to Matthew, or Matthias, Mats is a popular name throughout Sweden, and it's been the title for various actors, and a Norwegian composer too. Mats translates to mean gift of God, just like Matthew, or Mattias.
6. Thor
Thor, or Tor, is a popular male name in Sweden, thanks to its links with the Norse God of Thunder and Lighting. The name "Thor" is usually pronounced "Toor" in Swedish, which is a surprise to most English people who hear it.
7. Loke
We can't mention Thor without referencing Loki too. The most common spelling in Sweden is actually "Loke," and it references the Norse legend and trickster God you may be familiar with thanks to pop culture.
8. Salomon
Salomon might sound like a biblical name, but it has many connections to Norway, Denmark, and Sweden too. Salomon basically means "Peace," and it's the title for a Swedish international footballer too.
Extra inspiration for Swedish baby boy names
So far, we've covered quite a few Swedish boy names with various meanings. As you might have noticed, the Swedes like to connect their names with history, mythology, nature, and various other connotations.
If you still haven't found your ideal baby boy name yet, or you're looking for Swedish names for men to help with your next great novel, here are a few more.
1. Acke
Acke is a great name for a baby boy. Although in the UK and other Western parts of the world the term sounds quite harsh, it means "man of peace." Great for any parent hoping for a calmer child, this name is sure to earn plenty of attention.
2. Adolf
This name has lost its popularity over the years for obvious reasons. However, what most people don't realise is Adolf was extremely popular in Sweden. It actually means "noble wolf" and has a wonderful link to nature.
3. Casper
Casper isn't just a friendly ghost, it's also a great Swedish boy name. Casper, or Kasper, means "treasurer" or "treasure." This moniker is common in Sweden and various parts of Scandinavia, but it's gaining a good foothold in other parts of the world too.
4. Claes
Setting your little one up for success is easy with a name like Claes, or Klas. Though this name looks very exotic, it's quite similar to Nicholas. The title means "victory of the people," making it a good option for a future leader.
5. Eskil
Eskil is a Swedish name at heart, but it has connections with Christianity, rather than the Nordic culture. Eskil means "vessel of God", and it's one of the many monikers from Sweden with a unique and impressive sound.
6. Fredrik
Similar in a lot of ways to "Frederick," Fredrik is a good boy name if you're looking for something just a little different for your child. There are Hungarian elements to this title too. Fredrik means "peaceful ruler."
7. Viktor
Viktor is another name which promises to set a young man up for success in the future. This Swedish boy name is the Scandi version of the better-known Victor. It means "victorious," unsurprisingly, or can also translate to "the conqueror."
Swedish Boy Names 6
Exploring Swedish male names
A person's name is a crucial part of their identity.
Although we can't always choose our own name, we use it as an insight into ourselves, our family, and our history. Names can link us to the past and previous generations.
The right moniker also has the power to build confidence and help you to discover yourself.
While a Swedish boy's name might not be the perfect choice for every new family, it's an excellent way to find yet another connection to the wonderful world of Scandinavia
If you already love the unique culture Sweden has to offer, a great name could be a better way to connect with that.

Healthy planning policy and monitoring in Southwark and Lambeth
Built environment professionals are increasingly interested in the relationship between places and health. Many guidance documents are available to inform planning policy-makers of the importance of planning and health, yet there remains uncertainty about exactly 'what works' with regard to specific design and policy measures. In part, this has been explained by a lack of clear causal evidence to inform practice. However competing policy priorities and differing cultures of practice and evidence use across health and planning also play a role.
Despite these challenges, there is a growing desire to integrate design and planning measures which are known to support health and wellbeing into policies and projects. Planners want to know what has worked elsewhere and what evidence can be used to support local policies.
The research focused on three key health themes in Southwark and Lambeth which are widely relevant in the UK and internationally: social isolation, obesity (physical activity/healthy eating) and access to health services. Like many aspects of the urban environment's impact on health, there are many interconnections across these topic areas. The findings from academic research, consultation activities and policy examples often do not correspond to separate policy domains because of these overlaps. This is particularly notable with two of the focus areas for this review – social isolation and physical activity – which are both influenced by similar characteristics of the urban environment. In some ways, this is an advantage because policies can have multiple co-benefits. For example, increasing walkability through urban design may improve physical activity, increase social engagement and reduce local carbon emissions.
Planning policies alone will not address complex health issues like social isolation and obesity. As is often the case in urban planning and public health, officers will need to work across departments in the council and with other public and private stakeholders to integrate built environment solutions with other health promotion measures. Furthermore, solutions from one neighbourhood or research study may not be applicable more widely, depending on local context. There is great value in engaging local communities to explore their views of local problems and assets. This can ensure that policies and design measures respond to local needs, resulting in better outcomes.

I really didn't know what type of scene to make for a forest like theme with when creating this next landscape lesson with a 'for kids' theme. After thinking of what else I could create that could help aid people with drawing specific backgrounds, I came up with the idea to do a tutorial on "how to draw a jungle for kids", step by step. This lesson is going to be full of trees, leaves, foothills, and a bunch of moss filled ground. A jungle is a place that has heated temperatures, with a muggy, misty, sticky feel. I had so much fun making this jungle because my little eight year old sister helped me out with the concept. I think that there is a lot of potential with this background because you can add some tropical birds, insects and even reptiles to accent the whole drawing. I was going to include some wild life, but I thought I would leave that up to you guys. Well, that's it, have fun with drawing a jungle for kids, and I will return in a bit with some more fun for you all.

Experimental Investigation on Atomization Characteristics of Ultrasonic Atomizer 900803
An exeperimental study on the atomization characteristics of an ultrasonic Atomizer utilizing pulse laser holographic system is presented in this paper.
The spatial distribution of the ultrasonic frequency and the pressure amplitude behind the atomizer were measured. It was shown by experiment that the sonic wave from the outlet of the atomizer travels as a spherical wave.
The effects of the air pressure within the ultrasonic atomizer on the ultrasonic frequency and the pressure amplitude were studied.
The effects of air pressure and fuel flow rate on the spatial distribution of the droplets and the SMD mean diameters were obtained.
On the basis of experimental results, the atomization mechanism of the ultrasonic atomizer is discussed.

Regular Expressions: Positive and Negative Lookahead austin
Tell us what's happening:
I'm looking at the example given in the Positive and Negative Lookahead Lesson. Here it is:
let password = "abc123";
checkPass.test(password); // Returns true
However, if password = "abcd123" it still return as true, even though the password has more than 6 characters. Why is that? Shouldn't this return as false if there are more than 6 characters?
Also, I don't understand how the lookahead works when there is nothing in front of the (?=…) as given in this example. The other examples have something in front, as with q(?=u). How can you have a lookahead with nothing in front of the lookahead?

Challenge: Positive and Negative Lookahead
Link to the challenge:
I'll translate this regex to English and see if you can spot the problem:
 1. Anywhere ahead of me there must be three to six _alphanumeric characters
 2. Anywhere ahead of me there must be a digit possibly preceded by any number of non-digit characters
DISCLAIMER: "Anywhere" is somewhat incorrect technically, but still OK to understand the behaviour.
Ok thank you that does help! It seems that this regex just checks to see if there are 3-6 alphanumeric characters in the string ("ahead of me"), but the string can still be more than 6 characters.
Exactly! There is no way lookaheads can test the maximum boundary. In order for this regex to work you need to unwrap the first lookahead and introduce boundaries ^...$:
const re = /^(?=.*\d)\w{3,6}$/;
re.test('abc123'); // true
re.test('abcd123'); // false

Musk is a legendary perfume, which gives many perfumes their special fragrance. In addition, musk is a coveted natural product for Chinese folk medicine. But what exactly is behind the material? What does musk smell like and where does musk come from? We provide the answers to the most important questions about musk.
What is musk?
Musk is a perfume that is produced in the musk bag - a walnut-sized gland - of the male musk deer. The substance is a dried, powdery and extremely smelling secretion that is used by the musk deer to attract females.
What does musk mean?
The word can be derived from the Greek "moschos", from the Latin "muscus" or from the Persian "musk" and means testicles or scrotum. The musk bag has been compared to this one - but musk is not actually extracted from the testicle of the musk deer.
The term is also used for secretions of other animals and plants, the one musk-like scent to have. The animals include the musk ox, the musk-hive, the muskrat and the musk-duck. In the plants it is for example the Juggler flower, the musk mallow, the musk herb or the Abelmoschus.
How is musk recovered?
Naturally, musk originates in the Musk gland of male musk deer, formerly also known as musk deer.
By the end of the 70s, perfumes were also produced for this purpose real musk used. However, this is no longer allowed for reasons of animal welfare. Because a lot of musk deer had to lose their lives for the production of musk - a musk gland contains only about 30 grams of the secretion. Even today, the musk deer is threatened with extinction.
That's why musk today comes from one synthetic production. In addition, artificial musk can be produced quite cheaply, whereas the natural product is extremely expensive.
In essence, four types can be distinguished:
- Tonkin musk from Tibet and China
- Russian musk
- Assam or Bengal musk from India
- Bukharian musk
In total, there are about 1,000 substances whose scent resembles musk - but find use as a musk substitute only about 30.
How does musk smell?
Both as a natural secretion and in its synthetic production, musk has on the one hand a tart animal and another radiant sweet smell on. The typical odor description characterizes the animal musk scent through leathery, hair and urine-like scents.
Musk as a perfume
Musk plays a particularly important role in perfumes. The scent is usually there only as Unternote, but it is contained in almost every perfume. Musk scent should never be consciously perceived, as too much of it is perceived as an intrusive body odor. For many perfumes, a light musk fragrance gives a warm character, intensifies the scents and completes them.
In addition, the human skin absorbs musk very well, so that the smell of perfume with musk lasts long - musk serves as a so-called fixator. The musk odor is also good with other fragrances such as patchouli or amber combinable.
Musk scent: effect
Musk perfume or musk oil on the one hand produces in humans Feeling of warmth and security, on the other hand, but also sexual arousal and Sensuality.
This is responsible for certain aphrodisiac components of musk, the structure pheromones resemble. Pheromones are secretions that are emitted by vertebrates in order to influence the behavior of other individuals of the same species during the mating process, for example.
Depending on the combination with other fragrances, musk can cause different effects. So musk can work in conjunction with other fragrance ingredients like this:
- or even promoting concentration
By the way: musk has one attractive effect on men. Surveys have shown that men, in addition to fresh perfumes, also like fragrances with a mochus-like, spicy or woody touch on women.
Certain musk perfumes have been specially developed for this erotic effect and attraction.
Is synthetic musk harmful?
There are now numerous detergents, cleansers and cosmetics containing synthetic polycyclic musk compounds. But these synthetically produced substances are not biodegradable and accumulate in human adipose tissue. Therefore, the cosmetic use of musk is controversial.* In older generations of synthetic musk, it is even thought that they are toxic and can promote the development of cancer.
Because of poor degradability, artificial musk in sewage treatment plants can only be partially removed from the sewage.
For these reasons, researchers are looking for healthier and more environmentally friendly musks.
Musk in medicine
The demand for natural musk still exists today, because in Chinese medicine musk is still considered an anti-spasmodic, nerve-strengthening and invigorating panacea. Especially for cardiovascular, nervous and respiratory problems musk should be able to help. Musk should also be beneficial for potency.
With the Crusades, musk also came to Europe, where the fragrance gained prominence as an aphrodisiac.
The musk deer
For a long time it has been assumed that the fawn-like musk deer are relatives of deer, so they were also called musk deer in the past. However, there are some major anatomical differences: Moose have a gallbladder in contrast to deer, also has the musk deer elongated upper canines, but no antler. And of course, the musk gland makes a difference between the two animals.
Musk deer live in herds, are herbivores and mostly in wooded mountain areas in southern Asia, especially in the Himalayas - in Europe they are already extinct. To get on leaves and branches, musk deer are good climbers.

Clinical research paper
The purpose of this study was to identify if there is an ongoing dilemma relating to the ethical core values of the current practice of clinical social work in America. The conceptual framework for this study is based on a qualitative paradigm consisting of a synthesis of existing research and the subjective data that was collected and analyzed for the purpose of this research study. This study reveals an ongoing polarized view of the perceived priorities of the ethical constructs of clinical social work as practiced in America over the last 40 years. This study reflects the need for clarification, as well as further research on the part of the National Association of Social Workers, as the NASW hopefully moves forward and provides a more comprehensive and clearly defined national policy regarding the current construct of the ethical model of clinical social work practice.

Fluid Fingers
Fluid phenomena can show up in unexpected places. The collage above shows patterns formed when an aluminum block is lifted during wet sanding, a polishing technique. The dendritic fingers are formed from oil and the slurry of sanded particles being polished away. They are an example of the Saffman-Taylor instability, which forms when less viscous fluids (oil) protrude into a more viscous one (the slurry). Each image contains a different concentration of oil, resulting in very different fingering patterns. (Image credit: D. Lopez)

Designing efficient screw feeders
Screw feeders are one of the industry's most useful feeding devices: they use relatively simple components and can be designed to reliably feed many kinds of bulk solids in a variety of applications. Unfortunately, the mechanisms governing the operation of these feeders under bin outlets aren't well understood. As a result, many existing screw feeders don't operate properly. This often leads to excessive power consumption, abrasive wear, particle attrition, or worse, unreliable material flow. Such problems can be avoided. This article reviews design procedures that can help you improve screw feeder performance. It also discusses the interaction mechanisms between proper bin design and optimum screw feeder design.
Feeders are used to control the rate of material discharge from a bin, hopper, silo, or bunker outlet. They shouldn't be confused with conveyors, which simply transport material from one location to another without controlling the flow rate. Common mechanical feeding devices include screw, belt, chain, rotary vane, rotary plow, rotary table, vibrating pan, and vibrating louver feeders. These feeders are typically used in a volumetric mode, where the volume of material being discharged per unit of time is varied by changing the speed, amplitude, or frequency of the feeder. Several of these devices can be designed to operate in a gravimetric mode, where the mass flow rate of material is actually measured and controlled.

How do I remove files older than a certain date, like logs and sessions?
The UNIX find utility is disabled for performance reasons. In order to find older files and delete them, one must create a script that performs similar logic.
Below is a way to do this using a PHP script and a HTML form as a cron job alternative.
 1. Notes
 2. The HTML form
 3. The PHP script
Before implementing your script for deletion of older files,know the following:
This is not designed to be used as a cron job. If you want to use as a cron job, do one of the following:
 - Hard code the arguments passed over HTML GET
 - OR
 - Pass the arguments on the CLI and use argv[0] and argv[1].
Example 1
ex1 $dir = opendir("/mnt/stor1-wc1-dfw1/111111/") or die("Could not open directory");
Example 2
ex2 $dir = opendir($argv[0)) or die("Could not open directory");
This form will allow anyone that can access it to delete your content. You'll want to secure it with an.htaccess file. You can also delete the form when you're done with it.
The HTML form
The HTML form that sends the directory and age to the PHP script is as follows:

 Directory:
 Days Old:

The PHP script
The PHP script that takes args from HTML GET query string can be constructed as follows:
 * DISCLAIMER: Use at your own risk. Rackspace claims no responsibility for any loss of data that occurs when using this script.
 * Pass from a HTML form the directory to be searched eg. /mnt/stor1-wc1-dfw1/111111/
 * Pass from a HTML form the age of files to be deleted in days. eg. "10" is any files that have not been modifed in 10 days
$dir = opendir($_GET["dir"]) or die("Could not open directory");
$old = mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d")-$_GET["days"],date("Y"));
echo "Working in ".$_GET["dir"]."";
echo "Deleting files created before ".date("F d Y", $old)."";
while(($dirent = readdir($dir)) != false)
 $cur = filemtime($dirent);
 if($cur < $old)
 echo "$dirent modified ".date("F d Y H:i:s",$cur)."";
 echo "Error deleting file $dirent";
 echo "$dirent modified ".date("F d Y H:i:s",$cur)."";

The IDLgrTessellator class is a helper class that converts a simple concave polygon (or a simple polygon with holes) into a number of simple convex polygons (general triangles). A polygon is simple if it includes no duplicate vertices, if the edges intersect only at vertices, and exactly two edges meet at any vertex.
Tessellation is useful because the IDLgrPolygon object accepts only convex polygons. Using the IDLgrTessellator object, you can convert a concave polygon into a group of convex polygons.
The IDLgrTessellator::Init method takes no arguments. Use the following statement to create a tessellator object:
myTess = OBJ_NEW('IDLgrTessellator')
See IDLgrTessellator for details on creating tessellator objects.
The procedure file
obj_tess.pro, located in the
examples/visual subdirectory of the IDL distribution, provides an example of the use of the IDLgrTessellator object. To run the example, enter OBJ_TESS at the IDL prompt. The procedure creates a concave polygon, attempts to draw it, and then tessellates the polygon and re-draws. Finally, the procedure demonstrates adding a hole to a polygon. (You will be prompted to press Return after each step is displayed.) You can also inspect the source code in the
obj_tess.pro file for hints on using the tessellator object.

Comparison of three commercial drain tiles in a heavy clay soil of Imperial Valley
F. E. Robinson, University of California
J. N. Luthin, University of California
California Agriculture 22(8):10-11. DOI: 10.3733/ca.v022n08p10.
Frank E. Robinson is Assistant Water Scientist, Department of Water Science and Engineering, University of California, Davis. James N. Luthin is Professor of Irrigation and Civil Engineering, Department of Water Science and Engineering, University of California, Davis.
No evidence was found in these tests of real differences in performance between clay, concrete, or bituminous-fiber tiles. Differences in tile outflow were due primarily to soil variation and not to tile performance. Little actual change in salinity resulted from the leaching operation in the body of soil between the tiles. In most cases as much, and often more, water was lost through seepage as was removed by the tile. Much of the water which moved through the soil followed the disturbed trench above the tile, as evidenced by the much lower salinity in that trench. Electrical conductivity of the tile effluent was inversely related to both rate and duration of tile flow. Each tile showed a unique relationship between electrical conductivity, rate, and duration of flow—probably a reflection of a unique combination of hydraulic conductivities along each tile line.

What is the cost of owning a cat? Information for beginners
Cats make amazing pets for everyone, but what is the cost of owning a cat? By recognizing it, many pet owners can offer their cats the best possible care.
How much does it cost to have a cat?
Having a cat at home is one of the most rewarding experiences for every household. But the cost of owning a cat should be an important thing to consider. It's highly variable as it comes to cat ownership. The cost matters a lot because it affects straight the quality and kind of pet care that your cat might receive. For some people, their love for cats is the biggest concern instead of the cost.
However, knowing that cats costing a great deal would help all cat owners find the best plan to get well-prepared. That helps them offer the essential care for their pets.
==> Can cats see ghosts? Let's find out this mysterious question.
==> How To Give Cool Cat Names To Your Pets?
What is the cost of owning a cat?
The average cost of owning a cat is around $809 per year. Since every cat can live from 9 to 15 years. As a result, you will need to spend a lifetime cost of $7,646 to $12,500. In reality, a few cat breeds probably end up costing you about $33.408! Bear in mind that most feline buddies tend to live for 18 years. Therefore, before getting a cat, it's best to consider the costs of raising them for that period.
cost of owning a cat
For details, we'd like to list out the average expenses of owning a cat:
Cost of buying a cat
If you intend to buy a domestic cat from a well-known breeder or a reliable rescue home, it would be from $70 to $208. You could spend more than that, with the price of over $1392 on Maine Coon, Russian Blue, and Norwegian Forest cats. Besides, several families are finding their beloved furry friends on the streets. And guess what? Both adoption cost and vaccination cost possibly go up.
For older cats, the cost of cat adoption would be as low as $50 only. Besides, it depends on where you adopt the animal from. What if you've just adopted from a shelter? Then go to save as much as $200, following the claim of a doctor of vet medicine in Manhattan, Kansas. In case you're a vet, then it's possible for you earn a discount on adoption fees.
Cost of caring for a cat
Now it comes to how much do your cats cost to take care of? It depends on. So one of the best ways to save more on vet costs would be to maintain your cat as healthy as possible in the first place. What's else? Never think of skipping any vet visit and always get updated with vaccines. As you know, every emergency clinic service is quite expensive, so make frequent visits to the vet center would keep them strong.
Along with that, all cat owners can check pet insurance. Doing that will help them set aside for unwanted illnesses for that long. Those plans cost around $10 – $40 and will cover different needs. In short, the cost of a cat's healthcare varies from one pet to another. It bases on some particular elements, such as genetic predispositions, breed, and whether your cat is an indoor or outdoor one.
Cost of feeding a cat
=> Keeping Track Your Budget With The Best Cheap Cat Food
cost of owning a cat
Your cat needs its food to gain all the essential nutrients they require. Thus, costs vary remarkably by brand, the size of the cat, and its lifestyle. A cat adult needs to consume 2 pouches of wet food and 20 g of dry food every day.
Note that feeding a cat usually costs you less than feeding a dog. But the food bill remains a crucial part not to be missed here. Each year, you can expect to spend from $140 to $278 based on what type of cat food you're purchasing. Only decent food for cats is good for the pet's health though it might cost more than expected. Also, ensure to check the ingredients to ensure you're owning a higher content of meat.
In case you don't know, it's best to control the cost of preparing cat raw food. To do that, make sure to get from reliable or well-known suppliers. You can easily save some dollars at the supermarkets when doing so. Let's get raw meat in bulk, and don't forget to use more discount offers if possible. Go for affordable cuts of meat.
Cost of cat toys and bed
=> Best Cheap Cat Beds in 2021: Reviews and Buying Guide
There are so many extra costs as it comes to owning a cat. Not only does your cat need the essential things, like a bed, there are also more important things like litter trays. And it might cost you around $278 per year to cover those expenses. Must-have items you cannot ignore to keep a healthy lifestyle for your cat are scratching posts. Well, it still depends on you and your cat.
However, to help maintain your furniture from getting damaged or scratched up, getting them toys is a great idea. Some people would spend $25 only a year on cat toys, and they also have the feather toy. Instead of it, let your cat enjoy its great time with an empty box or an empty bag. For its more fun, how about chasing your feline friend around the house?
cost of owning a cat
Cost of cat insurance
It's the same as when you need health insurance, your kitty also needs health insurance. Most pet insurance costs vary depending on the cat breed and the insurer. A cat owner is likely to spend $252 per year. Like I said, to keep the costs down, let's keep your cat as healthy as you can right from the day of its birth or adoption.
Premium tends to increase much once the pet turns 6 or 7. Next, you probably struggle to get insurance as they turn to 8 or 9. We recommend you to earn a one-year policy in the early times. Before choosing any policy, consider the maximum payout every year and the reimbursement rate.
Cost of cat vaccinations
As a cat owner, you might like to keep your pet vaccinated to fight against rabies and other respiratory illnesses. It costs about $80 on vaccinations for kitties in their early years. Afterwards, the costs decreases to $50 per year to keep a healthy cat for you. Try to search more information on the internet for low-cost health clinics that offer pet vaccinations.
If you're adopting it, the adoption center would inform you about these clinics. To help protect your kittens, they need two sets of vaccinations for startup. At nine weeks old, your pet must have the first set while the second set should get done at their three months old. Those sets help them enhance the immune system.
Cost of cat grooming
cost of owning a cat
=> Shrinking From Cat Shedding Hair With The Best Cat Self Groomers
Every domestic cat needs frequent brushing to prevent mats from sticking to its coat. Grooming criteria would depend on the breed of your cat, and its coat. The average cost of cat grooming is around $50 with pet owners who have to spend from $30 to $70. A few other facilities might charge you for a package while others provide you with a basic bath only.
Keep in mind that frequent grooming will help lower cat hair allergens in the house, so make it easier for your cat to groom by itself. Once cats do it themselves, their tongues can draw fur in. Long-haired cats need more grooming, and pet owners always want to take them to get groomed professionally. The longer your cat's hair, the more difficult the task of grooming and the higher the price.
Cost of getting a cat neutered
For those who encounter a box of kitties, or let a stray cat enter your house, then you're responsible for getting it neutered and vaccinated. Such a surgery costs $300 in a total. There's another option for you to take your kitten to a lower-cost clinic. This gets run by nonprofits and every surgery gets carried out by licensed vets.
The cost of neutering increases up if you want your vet to microchip the pet in the surgery. Your vet can insert a little microchip under the skin of your cat. When your cat is lost, this microchip can get scanned, and then your pet is claimed to get back to you. The cost of inserting this chip is around $14, and this cost might vary.
Final words
In general, you probably get the answer to the question "what is the cost of owning a cat?". The average cost of a cat varies based on the breed of cat, age, and your lifestyle. For the basics, it costs in a minimum of $405 for the initial year, and about $340 for every year after. By knowing these costs, you and other pet owners no longer get surprised at how much it costs to have a cat per year.

Photos in order of appearance: gargoyle and Cummer Oak, 2012; detail of gargoyle, 2012; gargoyle, 2012.
The gargoyle on the pedestal was acquired in 1981 from a building slated for demolition in New York City and was installed in the Italian Garden. The gargoyle symbol dates to Greek and Roman times and is a common feature in medieval churches in France. They were protective symbols and often projected from the eaves of buildings to drain off rainwater.
Near the gargoyle, sitting at the foot of the stairs, is a pink marble lion that is the biggest of the many lion sculptures and decorations. The lion motif is seen frequently throughout the Cummer Gardens on benches and chairs. Though it is not known why Mrs. Cummer chose lions, it is possible that they were selected for their association with courage and nobility. It is also possible that because the heraldic lion is seen all over England, Mrs. Cummer chose to use the symbol throughout her gardens as a complement to her English Tudor style home.

- A Prehistoric evergreen that keeps coming back to life!
- Grows in one day! Unconditionally guaranteed to grow!
- Can "sleep" for fifty years and spring back to life in one day!
Take the amazing Dinosaur Plant out of its home for days, months, even years-then give it water, and it will ROAR back to life!
The Amazing Dinosaur Plant is one of the longest-living plants in the world! This plant actually lived when the first dinosaurs emerged. At that time, this plant would grow to over 120 feet, taller than even a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
When the ice age came, the Dinosaur Plant had to mutate and get really small. In order to survive, it learned how to blow onto dry land and sleep, waiting for water. Usually the plant drifted around until it stumbled into a puddle. Then the plant "drank" greedily, and went back sleep until it found the next puddle.
The Dinosaur Plant is very easy to care for. All it needs is a little water and some occasional sleep. Simply place the plant in its bowl with New Mexico lava rock (included), pour some water on the plant and it will spring to life within one day! If you let the Dinosaur Plant dry out, it will shrink back to its sleeping state. It can sleep for up to fifty years and will still rise when you place it in water! A fun project for the entire family to enjoy!
The Amazing Dinosaur Plant includes a live plant, bag of genuine volcanic lava rock, display bowl, and instructions. Appropriate for ages 4+. Dinosuar Plant Instructions

Need a sensor to detect weight/force/pressure, Force Sensitive Resistor aka FSR is the component you are looking for. This FSR is model 402 by Interlink Electronics with the sensing region diameter 14.7mm.
FSR's are basically a resistor that changes its resistive value (in ohms Ω) depending on how much it's pressed. These sensors are fairly low cost, and easy to use but they're rarely accurate. They also vary some from sensor to sensor perhaps 10%. So basically when you use FSR's you should only expect to get ranges of response. While FSRs can detect weight, they're a bad choice for detecting exactly how many pounds of weight are on them.The model 402 FSR is a single-zone Force Sensing Resistor optimized for use in human touch control of electronic devices such as automotive electronics, medical systems, and in industrial and robotics applications. FSRs are two-wire devices. They are robust polymer thick film (PTF) sensors that exhibit a decrease in resistance with increase in force applied to the surface of the sensor. It has a 14.7mm diameter active area and is available in 4 connection options.

SCR Catalyst Testing
SCR Catalyst Testing in progressSCR catalyst testing is a required first step in devising an effective catalyst management strategy. Pilot testing and audits of SCR catalyst activity though laboratory analysis of catalyst samples can provide insight into methods for extending catalyst life.
Our in-house laboratories perform SCR catalyst testing and analysis to determine catalyst deactivation rates and provide corrective measures for system optimization.
How CORMETECH Measures SCR Catalytic Activity And Potential
Analysis objective
SCR Catalyst Activity Test Determine the catalyst activity under specific plant or standard conditions through the use of representative-size catalyst samples. Metrics include the catalyst SO2/SO3 conversion rate, pressure drop, initial activity (K0) and actual activity (K).
Physical Properties Test Evaluate physical properties of the catalyst such as its surface area (BET - Brunauer-Emmett-Teller Test) and porosity (or pore volume).
Chemical Composition Test Chemical Composition Test: Evaluate the impact of coal and ash properties on the catalyst and its performance by measuring the catalyst's chemical composition using quantitative and Semi-quantitative X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy analysis:
 - The XRF-Quantitative analysis is primarily used for manufacturing control and finished product quality assurance. This analysis ensures that manufacturing specifications of the elemental composition for the catalytic metals are met. Carefully-prepared sets of analytical standards, composed of the metals in the actual matrix to be analyzed, are used to set the calibration for these measurements.
 - XRF-Semi-quantitative analysis measures approximately 40 other elements to detect changes in surface and bulk chemical composition as the catalyst is exposed to flue gas.
Our testing program includes collection and compilation of field performance data, such as NOx levels, removal efficiency, ammonia-in-ash levels, operational data, and the like. CORMETECH also takes samples of SCR catalyst removed from the field and tests them in its laboratory to assess the catalytic potential against initial design requirements. These tests are done at either standard conditions (single-layer; MR=1), or at actual field conditions (multi-layer; field MR), and often at both conditions to ensure accurate evaluation of the test results. These tests, along with available fuel impact tests (FIELD GUIDE™), provide users current data to assess SCR catalyst system performance. This approach gives users added operational flexibility by analyzing a wide range of catalyst management "what-if" scenarios.
CORMETECH's testing equipment is state-of-the-art and methods are fully conforming to the SCR industry's best practices and VGB guidelines.


Can chinchillas eat peanuts?
Can Chinchillas Eat Peanuts?
Wild chinchillas likely eat nuts and seeds, when they find them. So should you feed a pet chinchilla peanuts? And if not, why not?
Can chinchillas eat peanuts? They can, but peanuts of all kinds are nutritionally unsuitable for chinchillas. That includes roasted nuts, raw peanuts, unsalted and salted, and even monkey nuts still in their shells. They are too high in fat and calories so can make chinchillas overweight. They also don't contain enough fiber or carbohydrate for your chinchilla's gut, so may cause bloating. Feed your chinchilla safe snacks like rose hips, sweet hay or shredded wheat instead.
The guide below details exactly why chinchillas shouldn't eat peanuts, by looking at their nutritional content vs. the nutrients a chinchilla needs. We'll also look at some of the side effects that peanuts are likely to cause (and they aren't pretty). And for anybody who is going to insist on giving their chinchilla peanuts, we've also made recommendations on serving sizes that, while not good for your chinchilla, at least aren't likely to cause it significant harm.
Can Chinchillas Eat Peanuts?
Chinchillas can physically eat peanuts. They have big, strong teeth that can easily break them apart. And chins aren't stupid, so won't try swallowing peanuts whole—they know to chew them first. But while a peanut won't immediately poison or choke your chinchilla, it won't be good for its health, so we don't recommend feeding them.
Do Chinchillas Like Peanuts?
Can chinchillas eat peanuts?Chinchillas enjoy eating anything new, sweet and/or fatty. They're naturally inclined to eat high-calorie foods because these are hard to find in the wild—the same instinct that we have. So, if you offer your chinchilla a peanut, it will eat it.
The problem is that your chin doesn't know what's best for it. It's in the wild, and it has unlimited access to hay and pellets. It doesn't need to gorge on dense foods like peanuts. In that sense, peanuts are a lot like the chinchilla equivalent of the snacks and fast food that we enjoy eating (but probably shouldn't).
Why Can't Chinchillas Eat Peanuts?
Peanuts are nutritionally unsuitable for chinchillas. If fed regularly, they will make your chinchilla gain weight. And because your pet isn't used to them, they could cause digestive issues like bloating, too.
Nutrients in Peanuts
To fully understand why peanuts have the effect that they do, you have to look at the specific amounts of each nutrient they contain. The table below uses data from These data relate generically to unsalted peanuts, not one brand or another.
NutrientsAmount per 100gRequirements
It should be immediately obvious that peanuts don't give chinchillas some of what they need, and give far too much of things they don't need much of.
Carbohydrate, Protein & Fat in Peanuts
The key issue with peanuts is that they contain far too much fat for chinchillas.
Contrary to popular belief, no one nutrient is the 'enemy'. You shouldn't entirely cut out carbs, fat, or anything else. Rather, the issue here is that fat contains more calories per gram than protein and carbohydrates (roughly double). As such, peanuts have almost three times as many calories as chinchillas need. This means that your pet will quickly gain weight if you feed it peanuts, even as a snack. The fact that peanuts have around 20-40% more protein than chinchillas need makes this problem even worse.
What else makes peanuts unsuitable is that they contain little fiber, or at least, less fiber than chinchillas need. Chins need a very high fiber diet, perhaps up to 30g per 100g. Their digestive systems are tailored to just such a diet. If your chin doesn't get enough fiber, its stools may be soft or even runny.
Vitamins & Minerals in Peanuts
Peanuts have lots of vitamins and minerals compared to other foods, both in terms of the number of different micronutrients they contain, and the amounts of each. Here is a table, again with data from, that lists each micronutrient that peanuts contain high amounts of:
Vitamin/MineralAmount per 100g
Vitamin B10.64mg
Vitamin B20.135mg
Vitamin B312.066mg
Vitamin B51.767mg
Vitamin B60.348mg
Vitamin E8.33mg
This table may seem like a plus-point in favor of peanuts, but it's not.
Chinchillas can thrive on a diet of hay and hay alone. That's because hay contains every vitamin and mineral that chinchillas need to live healthy lives. That may seem surprising, but many animals don't need a varied diet like we do.
If your chinchilla is deficient in something, peanuts aren't an effective 'supplement'. Rather you should talk to your vet about actual supplements. Take calcium, for example: timothy hay doesn't contain quite enough, which is why chinchilla pellets often contain alfalfa, which contains lots. If your chin isn't getting enough, the vet can recommend a suitable supplement. Or, you can give your chinchilla a cuttle bone as a chew toy. Both of these options are better than peanuts because they don't make your pet gain weight or have digestive issues.
Are Peanuts Poisonous to Chinchillas? (Digestive Issues)
Peanuts aren't poisonous for chinchillas. Your chin can eat one, and it won't immediately get sick, let alone pass away.
Rather, they cause digestive issues. These take longer to appear than a poison would take to take effect. Peanuts, and any food your chinchilla is unfamiliar with, can cause bloating which is a dangerous problem for a chinchilla to face.
This occurs because a chinchilla's digestive system is set up perfectly to digest rough fibers like those found in hay. The chinchilla digests its food twice over to extract as much nutrition from it as possible, and its gut bacteria and enzymes specialize in breaking down fibrous foods. While peanuts are reasonably fibrous, they are nowhere near as fibrous as hay.
When the chinchilla's gut has to digest something it isn't used to, the food can ferment. When this happens, it produces lots of gas, and since chins can't pass gas easily, this gas gets trapped. So much can get trapped that the chinchilla's gut or stomach lining can burst. While this won't happen if you feed your chinchilla just one peanut, peanuts and other unsuitable snacks can contribute to an existing issue, or create an issue from nothing if fed regularly.
Can Chinchillas Eat Raw Peanuts?
Can chinchillas eat peanuts?
Peanuts grow in the ground!
The statistics above relate to raw, unsalted peanuts. Every peanut has this much fat in it, that many calories in it (if not more), and isn't suited to your chinchilla's diet. That applies to peanuts you get in packets, peanuts you get in tubs, or monkey nuts that you get with their shells still on.
Can Chinchillas Eat Salted Peanuts?
Salted peanuts are worse for your pet than raw peanuts. That's because of all the sodium (salt) they contain/have on their surface. Sodium has negative health effects like raising blood pressure. It's proven to increase the risks of kidney disease, stomach cancer and heart failure too. While these effects haven't been proven in chinchillas specifically, they have been observed in other rodents, so are likely to occur in chinchillas too.
Can Chinchillas Eat Peanut Shells?
While peanuts aren't suitable for chinchillas, peanut shells are.
Peanut shells are too tough and fibrous for us to eat. But it's these qualities that make them the perfect chew toy for chinchillas. Chins need a chew toy to keep their teeth from growing overlong. Apple wood sticks are a common choice, and there's no reason not to give these. But chinchillas enjoy having new toys and new treats: it keeps them entertained.
Peanut shells are a good choice because when chinchillas gnaw on things, they can accidentally ingest some by accident. That's why it's best to offer chew toys made from natural materials like wood. Peanut shells don't contain the same high levels of fat and protein that peanuts do, which means they're safe to ingest.
Can Chinchillas Eat Peanut Butter?
Peanut butter is tasty, but doesn't make a good chinchilla treat.
The same issues that apply to regular peanuts apply to peanut butter, too. Peanut butters have the same, if not higher, levels of fat and protein than raw peanuts. They have lots of salt added, too.
And besides nutrition, peanut butter poses other problems. If you got any peanut butter in your chinchilla's fur, it would be a nightmare to clean out.
How Many Peanuts Can Chinchillas Eat?
We would recommend against feeding your chinchilla any peanuts, for the reasons covered above. On top of that, though, there are snacks that are perfectly suitable for chinchillas that won't have these effects. Chinchillas enjoy these snacks just as much as fatty, sugary or generally unhealthy ones. There's therefore no logical justification for offering unhealthy peanuts when healthy rose hips or herbs will suffice.
And besides that, ch

International Day of Clean Air and Blue Skies8th September 2020 / Posted by CRP Team
As of 2020, the United Nations have designated 7th September as the International Day of Clean Air for blue skies! The day came about after recognising the impact of clean air on our health and acknowledging the importance of raising public awareness on the topic. The UN recognise air pollution as a two-fold problem, impacting on both health and the environment. CRP is aligned with this effort and has developed actions and projects to reduce emissions and help to improve the air quality in London. If you are interested in knowing more, all of CRP's Clean Air Villages case studies are available here. Please contact CRP Project Officer Carina Mesquita for further information.


Scale Kubernetes Pods
Updated 1 day ago by Michael Cretzman
When you deploy a Kubernetes workload using Harness, you set the number of pods you want in your manifests and in the deployment steps.
With the Scale step, you can scale this number of running pods up or down, by count or percentage.
In this topic:
Before You Begin
Step 1: Add Scale Step
In your Harness Workflow, click Add Step, and select Scale. The Scale settings appear.
Name the step and then provide the scaling strategy, described below.
Step 2: Pick Count or Percentage
The Scale step updates the number of instances running, either by count or percentage.
In Instance Unit Type, select COUNT or PERCENTAGE.
 - COUNT — The number is simply the number of pods.
 - PERCENTAGE — A percentage of the pods defined in your Harness Service Manifests files or a previous Workflow step.
Step 3: Set the Number of Pods
Enter the number of pods to scale up or down compared to the number of instances specified before the Scale step.
The number may come from the Harness Service manifest or a previous Workflow step, whichever set the number of pods right before the Scale step.
For example, in you have replicas: 4 in a manifest in your Service, and you enter 50 PERCENT in Instances, then 2 pods are deployed in this step.
If you have an odd number of instances, such as 3 instances, and then enter 50% in Scale, the number of instances is scaled down to 2.
Step 4: Specify Resources to Scale
Enter the Harness built-in variable ${k8s.canaryWorkload} or the name of the resource in the format [namespace/]Kind/Name, with namespace optional. For example:
You can scale Deployment, DaemonSet, or StatefulSet.
You can only enter one resource in Workload. To scale another resource, add another Scale step.
Here is what a completed step looks like:
Option: Delegate Selector
If your Workflow Infrastructure Definition's Cloud Provider uses a Delegate Selector (supported in Kubernetes Cluster and AWS Cloud Providers), then the Workflow uses the selected Delegate for all of its steps.
In these cases, you shouldn't add a Delegate Selector to any step in the Workflow. The Workflow is already using a Selector via its Infrastructure Definition's Cloud Provider.
If your Workflow Infrastructure Definition's Cloud Provider isn't using a Delegate Selector, and you want this Workflow step to use a specific Delegate, do the following:
In Delegate Selector, select the Selector for the Delegate(s) you want to use. You add Selectors to Delegates to make sure that they're used to execute the command. For more information, see Select Delegates with Selectors.
Harness will use Delegates matching the Selectors you add.
If you use one Selector, Harness will use any Delegate that has that Selector.
If you select two Selectors, a Delegate must have both Selectors to be selected. That Delegate might also have other Selectors, but it must have the two you selected.
You can use expressions for Harness built-in variables or Account Default variables in Delegate Selectors. When the variable expression is resolved at deployment runtime, it must match an existing Delegate Selector.
For example, if you have a Delegate Selector prod and the Workflow is using an Environment also named prod, the Delegate Selector can be ${}. This is very useful when you match Delegate Selectors to Application component names such as Environments, Services, etc. It's also a way to template the Delegate Selector setting.
Option: Skip Steady State Check
If you select this, Harness will not check to see if the workload has reached steady state.
 - You can scale down to 0 to remove all instances.

With a severe drought hitting the southwestern United States, many towns are forced to rethink the way they use available water. Mineral Wells, Tex., was planning on keeping their public pools closed this summer in an effort to conserve water.
However, those plans changed after the city received $25,000 from an anonymous donor in order to drill a well and install fencing and electrical work that will keep both of its city pools operable.
According to city manager Lance Howerton, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality gave the city approval to use well water as long as the water meets specific quality standards, and Howerton assured the city council that the water will be up to those standards.
The city estimates that the project will cost approximately $21,000. The elements of the project include drilling the well, building a concrete slab and fencing, and creating electrical and plumbing connections to get the water from the well to the pools.
Howerton encouraged the council to approve the project on the condition that the city will first receive the $25,000 before any work begins, and the council gave the project a go-ahead with a 5-0 vote.
City officials were originally concerned about how the possible closures of the pools would affect the regular swimmers, swim teams, water aerobics users, and other pool-goers. But thanks to the donation, residents of Mineral Wells will have a place to swim this summer.
