The maprcli dump cldbnodes command lists the nodes that contain container location database (CLDB) data. For best results, use the -json option when running dump cldbnodes from the command line.
The CLDB is a service running on one or more MapR nodes that maintains the location of cluster containers, services, and other information. The CLDB automatically replicates its data to other nodes in the cluster, preserving at least two (and generally three) copies of the CLDB data. If the CLDB process dies, it is automatically restarted on the node.

Private Online LSAT Tutoring in Rio de Janeiro
If you're looking for quality LSAT tutoring in Rio de Janeiro, Varsity Tutors has you covered with excellent private instruction opportunities. The LSAT, or the Law School Admission Test, takes about two and a half hours to complete and assesses the skills and knowledge one would need to know to be successful in law school. If you are graduating or have graduated from a school such as the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and are hoping to attend a law school in the United States or Canada, you're likely to be required to take the LSAT. The exam assesses you on Reading Comprehension, Analytical Reasoning, Logical Reasoning, and Writing. If you have a hard time with any of these topics or simply want to increase your skills, signing up for private Rio de Janeiro LSAT tutoring can be the resource you need to put your best foot forward.
There are many benefits to be gained from signing up for private instruction as you prepare for your LSAT. The one-on-one environment, which can be difficult to find in a traditional classroom setting, provides your teacher with the chance to get to know you. He or she can spend time learning your professional goals, your academic strengths and weaknesses, and your preferred method of learning. With this information, you can receive instruction which is customized to fit your learning style. As an example, if you're an auditory student, your private Rio de Janeiro LSAT tutoring sessions would look different than those of someone who prefers a visual learning style. Your teacher could provide lessons using a lecture style or give you a recording on how to draw a well-supported conclusion to listen to at your leisure
In addition to personalizing the lessons to suit your method of learning, private LSAT tutoring in Rio de Janeiro can spend time focusing on the exact content you most need to review. If you've already mastered most of the skills found in the Logical Reasoning section, your instructor can help you review for the Reading Comprehension section instead. If you have strong Writing skills but have a difficult time with Analytical Reasoning, your Rio de Janeiro LSAT tutoring sessions can focus on your ability to infer what could or must be true based on the provided information.
In addition to reviewing the content you'll encounter on the exam, your LSAT tutoring in Rio de Janeiro can include sessions on the format of the exam. Your teacher can give you opportunities to take a practice test in a similar environment you'll find on test day. Each section has a specific time limit and you can practice your pacing ahead of time so you can feel at ease on exam day. Your Rio de Janeiro LSAT tutor can also give you advice on different strategies to use on test day. For example, your instructor can help you practice using the process of elimination on your exam as a way to improve your chances of choosing the correct answer to questions. This is important because your LSAT score will be based on the number of correct answers you get. There is no penalty for getting a question wrong, so you'll want to make sure to at least make an educated guess on each question. Your instructor can also assist you in practicing your Writing skills. Although the Writing sample is unscored, it is sent with your scores to any school you apply to, so it's important to demonstrate your argumentative writing skills.
To get started with LSAT tutoring in Rio de Janeiro, contact Varsity Tutors. We can have you connected to an instructor in as little as 24 hours to help you work towards your LSAT goals.

On 28 March 2018, MBIE published the Fire safety design guide for residential community housing. The document provides guidance for community housing providers, fire engineers and building consent authorities when an alternative solution is used to demonstrate Building Code compliance.
This guidance was developed following stakeholder feedback on the 2012 edition of revised Fire Safety Acceptable Solutions C/AS1-7. The 2012 amendments to the Building Code and supporting fire compliance documents resulted in changes to the performance settings for treatment of residential community housing. These types of homes were classified with the same fire safety provisions as a hospital or prison.
Stakeholders noted this provided a 'one size fits all' approach, without considering the differing levels of care and mobility of occupants in residential community housing and their ability to self-evacuate in the event of a fire.
The intention is for the design guide to be used as an alternative solution framework for fire safety design of new residential community housing. It will help building consent authorities to determine a baseline level of fire safety compliance, taking specific occupant characteristics and their vulnerabilities into account.
This guidance was jointly developed by MBIE, the Ministry of Health, New Zealand Fire Service, Housing New Zealand, Community Housing Aotearoa, New Zealand Disability Support Network, Disabled Person Assembly and a building control officer representative.
Public consultation on the proposed guidance document took place from 17 July to 11 September 2017.
Fire safety design guide for residential community housing has further information.

How to Tighten a Drive Belt on a Craftsman Riding Lawnmower, step by step
Ever witnessed your Craftsman lawnmower not mowing properly or leaving patches of uncut grass? A loose drive belt might be the very reason. Luckily, the entire process is relatively easy, and all you'll need for the adjustment is just a socket wrench. If you've never performed self-maintenance on your Craftsman lawnmower before, then don't worry as we dissect this information for you in a step-by-step approach.
How to tighten a drive belt on a Craftsman riding lawnmower, step by step:
 - Step 1: Test the tension in your existing lawnmower drive belt
 - Step 2: Inspect the components on the mower such as the pulleys, belt, spring, and swingarm and check for any damage
 - Step 3: Pull back the clamp holding the cable and tighten it so that the spring attached to it is stretched
 - Step 4: Start the engine and engage the blade lever to check for the belt operation after adjustment
How to Tighten a Drive Belt on a Craftsman Riding Lawnmower, step by step 1
Drive belts are components that connect the engine's transmission shaft to the transaxle pulley and are responsible for the transmission of torque and power to the blades. It is situated underneath the mowing deck in case of riding lawnmowers. The belts usually wear out after continued use. Due to elongation in their tensile cords, drive belts have been known to become loose with time. Most often, the remedy is a replacement. However, in cases when elongation isn't much, you can always adjust the belt tension, and we are looking at that in this article.
The article covers all the steps needed to tighten the drive belt in case of your Craftsman lawnmower. Furthermore, we also provide a brief overview of some frequently asked questions regarding drive belts and lawnmowers. Stay tuned.
Troubleshooting and Adjusting the Drive Belt on a Craftsman Riding Lawnmower, step-by-step:
The steps that need to be followed for fixing the Craftsman lawnmower drive-belt are mentioned below:
- Step 1: Test current drive belt for operation:
Before we dig into it, we first need to see whether the current drive belt is worth tightening or not. Most Craftsman models have a blade engagement lever next to the steering wheel. After the cutting deck is lowered on the ground, the lever engages the blades to make contact with the grass and perform their function.
To see if your current drive belt is loose or not, start your engine and push your throttle lever to the highest. Next, engage the cutting blades by pushing the lever upwards. If you hear the blades' cutting sound right after you push the engagement lever, it indicates that the drive belt has the requisite tension in it and doesn't need any adjustment. However, if you notice that the blades aren't cutting the grass after the very instant you push the lever and give a whirring sound, it means that your drive belt is slipping, thus pointing out the need for adjustment or replacement.
- Step 2: Inspect the mower deck components:
As we've seen, the drive belt is slipping; we need to troubleshoot this for the components located on the mower deck. To do this, lower the deck as much as you can and pull back your blade engagement lever. Then, you need to inspect the following components:
Belt: Make sure that your drive belt is intact and doesn't appear damaged with chunks missing and cracks. If it seems damaged, then you should replace it right away.
Swingarm: The swingarm is a component on the deck where the springs are connected, and a pulley is mounted. The arm is pivoted at one end and free to rotate at the other end. Make sure that the arm is free to rotate. If it is not, drop some oil or a lubricant at the pivoted end, which might have been jammed.
After the above components are functioning correctly, push the lever again to engage the blades.
Spring: The cable that comes from the lever is connected to a spring. Touch the spring to see if it's completely stretched or loose. Also, touch your belt at the same time and notice if it appears loose. If it does, we shall move on towards the next step, adjusting the belt tension.
- Step 3: Tighten the belt by adjusting the cable:
After you've seen your belt loosened up, disengage the blade lever again. You would have noticed the wire that comes from the blade lever and is attached to the springs. On the deck, it is mounted on a bracket.
Loosen the bolts on the bracket is push it back in the direction away from the spring. You now feel that the spring is tightened up.
- Step 4: Test the belt for tension:
After the bracket has been pulled back, start your lawnmower engine at full throttle. Now, push the blade engagement lever upwards and immediately notice the cutting action of the blades. If the blades begin cutting without delay, it means that the belt tension is now optimal. However, If the belt still seems loose enough, it indicates that this method didn't add the required tension, and therefore you should think about replacing the belt.
Related Questions:
1. How to remove and replace the drive belt on a riding lawnmower?
In most cases, tightening the drive belt does not solve the problem, and you often need to replace it altogether with an identical one. The steps for doing that are listed below:
Step 1: Disconnect the spark plug
First, you should turn off the ignition switch and remove the key. Next, you need to pull the mower hood upwards and disconnect the spark plug wire.
Step 2: Disassemble the mower deck
Next, you need to disconnect the entire mower deck from the main body of the lawnmower.
– Step 2.1: Lower the mower deck
As a first step, lower the mower deck on the ground to the lowest position and disengage the blades.
– Step 2.2: Roll the belt off
Roll the belt off the engine pulley and release the belt keepers.
– Step 2.3: Detach the deck
Now, you need to remove all the linkages that connect the mower deck to the upper portion from both sides of the mower deck. To do this, remove the retaining pins and washer supports from the lift link, suspension arm, and rear end bracket on both the left and sides of the mower deck. The deck should now be detached completely.
Step 3: Pull out the old belt
– Step 3.1: Take a picture
Note the routing of the blade belt on the mower deck. We recommend taking a picture to record the layout.
– Step 3.2: Remove the old belt
You might see three pulleys on the deck, namely one idler pulley along with belt keepers and two mandrel pulleys. Remove the old drive belt from the three pulleys.
Step 4: Install the new belt
Loop the new drive belt around the mandrel pulleys and pass it around the idler pulley through the belt keeper. Push the deck back under the mower.
Step 5: Reconnect the mower deck
Reconnect all the removed links such as the lift links, suspension arms, and rear end bracket back onto the mower deck through the retaining pins and washers. Attach the belt back to the engine pulley.
With the mower deck assembled, reconnect the spark plug wire and insert the key in the switch. Start your mower and test the new belt for performance.
2. How long is the drive belt on a Craftsman riding lawnmower?
Drive belts are responsible for transferring power from the engine pulley to movable parts in the mower, such as the blades. Craftsman lawnmower models consist of primary and secondary drive belts. Both belts have a length ranging from 42-55 inches depending on the particular model.
3. Why does the belt keep slipping off the lawnmower?
The drive belt of your lawnmower may come off for various reasons. The exact reasons may depend on the design of your machine. However, some general reasons resulting in this problem are listed below:
– Damaged parts:
The drive belts and idler pulleys may affect the belt operation if they are not in working condition. Moreover, the swing arm should be able to rotate freely about its pivot. You need to check the mower deck's adjustment as well. For normal conditions, the deck's front is generally lower 1/8 to 1/4 inch than the back. A pitch greater than this may cause the belt to keep slipping off.
– Debris Buildup:
The buildup of dirt and dust between the pulley and bracket may also reduce the friction attaching the belt onto the pulley. Make sure that no soil, grass, or sticks are found along the drive belt. This condition is quite imminent under rough operating conditions and low maintenance.
4. What are the two significant forms of drive belts used?
Transmission belts in machine design may be of the V-type or synchronous design. V-belts have a wedge-shaped cross-section. Friction is the only force keeping the belt attached. On the other hand, synchronous belts have a notched profile along their inner circumference, much like gears. They are generally mounted on gears and pinions and are used in timing operations.
Final Comments:
Lawnmower belt maintenance may be one of the most frequently occurring instances, mainly if the mower hasn't been well maintained in the past. We recommend cleaning your lawnmower occasionally and adequately checking the mower deck working components to see if they are

Alexander Kellett, a KDE developer, was looking for a way to dynamically change the colours in a desktop theme, but still keep the set of colours consistent. Imagine taking a theme where the icons are predominantly blue and changing it to a red-based colour scheme.
My suggestion was to rotate the colours using the hue angle from a perceptual colour space like CIELAB. This keeps the lightness (perceptual brightness) and amount of colour unchanged while rotating the hue.
The following is an example of a colourful image rotated by its hue, and then an example of a set of ten KDE icons. The icons show how each new colour scheme is relatively consistent in appearance, and our transition around the hue axis results in a reasonably even walk around the available colours. Finally, we show a saturated chromaticity diagram rotated by its hue to better show how these colours are mapped.
The source code for performing this rotation has been made available under the MIT license.
For a better idea of where colours get rotated to, click here for some renderings and a visual description of the CIELAB hue circle.

Why is it called Throwing?
Origin of "To throw": Old Engilish – twist, to turn, to propel. Some potters describe their work at the potters wheel as turning. The Old English word thrawan from which to throw comes, means to twist or turn. Going back even farther, the Indo-European root *termeans to rub, rub by twisting, twist, turn. The German word drehen, a direct relative of to throw, means turn and is used in German for throwing. Because the activity of forming pots on the wheel has not changed since Old English times, the word throw has retained its original meaning in the language of pottery but has developed a completely different meaning in everyday usage. Those who say they throw pots are using the historically correct term. Those who say they turn pots are using more current language. Both are saying the same thing

Lancaster was once one of the largest trading sites in Britain and was known to have a major stake in the transatlantic slave trade.
It was home to several prominent slave trading families including the Rawlinsons and the Dodsons.
Originally the Sugarhouse nightclub was a processing plant and storage unit founded in 1684 which would have treated sugar imported from the West Indies.
Atree Ghosh, who works as the Students' Union vice president for union development, fears that the club and its name 'treads very close to normalising the atrocities of the slave trade.'
He told LancsLive: "Our union-owned nightclub is still called the Sugarhouse and is situated in the original location of the sugar processing warehouse.
"This connection with the slave trade is never really publicised to students despite it being the core reason behind the name for the venue.
"Discussing a possible name change acknowledges the dark past, and at least attempts to move to a more positive future for a venue that students love.
The student's union could seek to rename the Sugarhouse.
"This is in no way a decision, this is a discussion, we want to hear people's thoughts - without that we can't come to any decision, we want to hear what students think.
"We don't want to make any decision like this behind students backs. We just want to make students aware of the link between Sugarhouse and our history.
"This may result in us doing a remembrance plaque at the club, information explaining its past on our website and one of those options is renaming the club.
"But that will not be done without a referendum."
Lancaster was at the centre of several discussions about its links to the slave trade following worldwide Black Lives Matter protests.
Historian David Starkey was stripped of his honorary degree from the university after making controversial comments, while discussions were held over renaming some of the city's streets and historical buildings.
A gravestone to the Rawlinson family, mass slave traders in the city, was also desecrated by protestors.
Discussions over a possible rebranding of the Sugarhouse were held between several SU officials, including Atree, on Friday (September 11).
"Are we trying to "erase" history? Absolutely not," said the 22-year-old union development vice president.
"Not because it is a history that deserves "celebrating" but because erasing the past of the Sugarhouse is downright insulting to the victims of its past.
"Some students have suggested that renaming the club could make people forget about those links with the past."
Atree admitted that the nearby Sugar House Alley, which houses the nightclub, could also be the subject of a rebrand which lead to the recent comments from Lancaster City Council.

I attended an engagement party where the couple was toasted, but I don't drink alcohol, so used my water glass with which to toast. My husband thinks that for the toast, I should have had a glass of champagne in hand, and just pretend to drink. What is the protocol for toasting, any other tips?
Dear Faux Pas,
You were fine with toasting with the water glass. When a toast is given, everyone, except the one being toasted, should take part with any glass handy, even an empty one is better than not toasting at all.
Basic tips for toasting are:
1. If you are the guest of honor being toasted, while the toast is being made, do not stand and do not drink to the toast.
2. If you are the guest of honor being toasted, after the toast is made, then you can stand and say thank you to the one who gave you the toast.
3. The first toast should be made by the host.
4. The one offering the toast should stand.
5. The one offering the toast should keep the speech simple and brief, and indicate the end of the toast by raising the glass and saying something such as "Cheers!"
6. Other guests should always take part in a toast using whatever glass is handy.

Maintaining ACH Network Quality
Support NACHA Operating Rules Compliance by Reporting Violations
By requiring participants to comply with the NACHA Operating Rules, NACHA maintains a high-quality, secure ACH Network. It's essential that non-compliance issues be resolved fairly and efficiently in order to provide financial institutions and end-users with a reliable Network. To that end, NACHA employs the National System of Fines as an enforcement mechanism for the Rules, allowing Depository Financial Institutions to review, evaluate and correct the circumstances surrounding any possible Rule violation.
NACHA's Members support Rules compliance by reporting those violations, using the procedures below.
The National System of Fines
The National System of Fines provides the structure for evaluating possible Rules violations. Through a formal system of warnings and fines, it corrects infractions and helps ACH Network participants to remain within the Rules' boundaries.
Instructions for Filing
If your organization or financial institution discovers a potential infraction, it should submit the issue to NACHA through a Report of Possible ACH Rules Violation. As the complainant, your organization must be a Participating DFI or ACH Operator that is party to the transaction in question. If that's not the case, your financial institution can file on your behalf.
To submit that report, you'll need the following information:
- Your contact and organization information, as well as your participant status (ODFI, RDFI, ACH Operator or other).
- A clear description of the alleged violation, including the sequence of events and consequences of the violation.
- The specific Rules provision in alleged to be violated.
- Transaction type information:
- SEC Code
- Transaction Code
- Settlement Date
- Dollar Amount
- Trace Number
- Account Number
- Date of Alleged Rules Violation
- Copies of all relevant documents with your report, such as Company/Batch Header Records, Entry Detail Records or Addenda Records
- Any written communication between the complainant and party in alleged violation of the Rules.
- Signature of an authorized representative of the complainant.
Your report must be submitted to NACHA within 90 days of the alleged Rules violation occurrence. If you feel that more than one Participating DFI has committed the same Rules violation, you must submit a separate report for each case.
Each Report of Possible ACH Rules Violation should be either submitted online, or downloaded (form available in the right-hand side bar), completed and sent to NACHA, Attn: Compliance Department by U.S. Mail (2550 Wasser Terrace, Suite 400, Herndon, VA 20171).

Display hidden fields from grid in edit form as texts
There are situation where we need to display the fields in edit form as texts, without a need to update it – just for information. In this article I will explain how to achieve this.
In Guriddo jqGrid there is no build-in way to display certain fields in forms as text for information purposes. Fortunately we have a custom functions with which we can do this.
In this example we will use custom_element and custom_value in editoptions object. The another requirement is that the field should be hidden in grid, but displayed into the form. Below are the settings in colModel which will do this:
colModel: [
 label: 'Freigh',
 name: 'Freight',
 width: 150,
 hidden : true,
 editable: true,
 edittype: "custom",
 editoptions: {
 custom_value: getFreightElementValue,
 custom_element: createFreightTextElement
 editrules : { edithidden : true }
In order not to display the field in grid, but in edit form we need to set the hidden option to true and edithidden option to true in editrules object
Now the field should be defined as editable and tell that a custom edit will be applied. This is done with editable: true and edittype: "custom" options in colModel. When a custom edit type is used we need to define two functions in editoptions – custom_element, which is responsible for the creation of our element and custom_value which is responsible for the manipulation of the value for that element. Bello are our two functions.
function createFreightTextElement(value, editOptions) {
 return $(""+value+"");
function getFreightElementValue(elem, oper, value) {
 if (oper === "set") {
 if (oper === "get") {
 return $(elem).text();
As can be seen the function which creates the element createFreightTextElement create a simple span element and append the value in this element. The function getFreightElementValue set the value in form when we walk through the records with navigator buttons (oper = set) and return the value when we push the Submit button form (oper= get). In case if there is a no need to submit this value to the server a serrializeEditData event should be defined in order to remove this Element. Below is the code that do this.
 { edit: true, add: false, del: false, search: false, refresh: true, view: false, align: "left" },
 // edit form options
 closeAfterEdit: true,
 delete data['Freight'];
 return data;
That is all. The example can be seen in our demo page here
Kind Regards,
Tony Tomov

The basic behavior of the shear deformation plate theories derived from the recently proposed Reissner's and Jing-Liao's functionals is studied in this paper. The difference between these two functionals is on the energy form of transverse normal stress. In Reissner's functional, the transverse normal stress has to be assumed as well as displacements and transverse shear. On the other hand, the independent variables in Jing-Liao's functional include only displacements and transverse shear. The comparison of these functionals is made through two examples, one with assumed transverse normal stress and the other without. It is found that for the cases studied in this paper Jing-Liao's functional provides a simpler, sometimes even better, alternative approach than Reissner's functional in formulating shear deformation theory of thick plates.

Wealth-Making in Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Century Britain: Industry v. Commerce and Finance
This paper refutes the hypothesis put forward by W.D. Rubinstein that a disproportionately large share of Britain's wealth makers were active in commercial and financial trades in London. We use a data set of businessmen active in nineteenthand early twentieth-century Britain and quantitative methods to show that the pattern of wealth holding was much more diverse than supposed by Rubinstein. A large fortune could be made in a variety of regions and occupations. Big industrialists active in the provinces were equally capable of generating wealth similar in size and significance to the City elite. More generally, London was not the centre of wealth making in this period. Neither was there a subordination of industrial and manufacturing to commercial and financial wealth.

In-ground pools can be expensive. If you want to escape the summer heat with friends and family, your next best option is an above-ground pool. However, if you have natural grass lining your backyard, you might wonder whether it will kill your grass or not.
Above-ground pools have a high chance of killing natural grass, and there aren't many options to avoid this. You can try to keep your grass healthy by placing a tarp beneath the above-ground pool and moving the pool often. Take care of the grass after the pool has been moved.
Are you thinking about getting an above-ground pool but are concerned about the natural grass that will sit underneath? Then you've come to the right article. Below, you will find out whether or not above-ground pools kill grass, plus a few tips to help avoid the inevitable.
Unfortunately, there is a high likelihood that your natural grass will die beneath an above-ground pool. This is especially true if your above-ground pool is larger and holds more water. But why?
There are two contributing factors that cause natural grass to die underneath an above-ground pool.
The first is the weight of the pool filled with water. A gallon of water weighs approximately 8.34 pounds. So, even a smaller pool at 12×30 holding 1,718 gallons will easily weigh over 10,000 pounds. That's a lot of pressure on the fragile greens underneath it!
Secondly, above-ground pools require certain chemicals to keep them clean, sanitary, and functioning – just like an in-ground pool. These chemicals are great for your pool but not so great for the grass underneath. Your grass will slowly die off as the chemical-laced water routinely spills over.
Above-ground pools lead to unlivable conditions for your natural grass. It's not all bleak, though. There are a few steps you can take to possibly prevent the above-ground pool from killing your grass.
Placing a tarp underneath the above-ground pool will create a barrier that prevents the chemicals from reaching your natural grass. It won't do too much to take the edge off the pressure of the filled pool, though, so you'll need to take additional steps to protect your lawn.
The best way to keep your grass from dying underneath your above-ground pool is to move it regularly.
Now, this will be easier if you have a small, inflatable pool that won't need emptying before moving around. If you have a small pool that is easily transported, move it every few days.
Medium to large-sized above-ground pools don't have the luxury of being moved. Yet, if you're determined to keep your grass from dying, you must move the pool every one to two weeks. Expel some of the water before attempting to move the larger pool.
If you've left your above-ground pool sitting on the natural grass for two weeks (but no longer than two weeks), it will have gone dormant. This means that the grass is not dead yet, but it's headed in that direction.
At this point, you'll need to water the area, pull any weeds hanging around and mow it, reduce foot traffic for a few weeks, and fertilize the space. This will help to bring the natural grass back to life, ready for its next "beating" from the above-ground pool.
This may not be a feasible option for most, but if you're determined to place your above-ground pool on "grass" and don't want to worry about killing it, you'll need to swap your natural lawn for an artificial product.
Artificial grass will not respond to an above-ground pool like natural grass. At the most, the blades will flatten, but this is an easy fix. All you need to do is brush the blades backward, so they stand up again.
Keeping natural grass healthy underneath an above-ground pool can be challenging – if not impossible – especially if you have a very large pool.
In situations like this, the better option may be to avoid the grass entirely and place the pool on a hard surface that won't get ruined.
That depends on one factor: how long the pool was sitting on the grass.
When smothered by an above-ground pool, grass goes dormant as quickly as 24 hours and will die in two weeks or less.
So, if you leave your above-ground pool sitting atop your lawn for the entirety of the summer (three or four months), your grass will have died at this point and will not grow back, even with the proper steps of mowing, watering, and fertilizing.
If you believe your grass has died from the above-ground pool, you must re-seed it. Place seeds in the dead grassy area. Then, cover it with a layer of dirt. Finally, keep the space well watered to grow new grass.
Pool water does not automatically equate to a dead lawn. Pool water may contribute to grass death, though. This is especially true if your pool contains undiluted chlorine or other harsh chemicals or is a saltwater pool.
Regular chlorine water shouldn't have too big of an impact on the grass. However, it can still pose a risk in excess amounts.
The other issue with pool water is the weight. So, while the chemical makeup of the pool water may not cause your grass to die, the weight of the water may smother it, leading to a perished lawn.
The unfortunate truth is that there is a high chance that your above-ground pool will kill your natural grass underneath.
The only real way to avoid this is to use a tarp underneath the pool and move it regularly, ensuring it doesn't stay in one spot for longer than two weeks.

Crocodile Cauldron is the name of the volcanic area of Crocodile Isle in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest ruled by Kleever. Crocodile Cauldron is, as mentioned above, very volcanic, possessing several large pits and rivers of lava. It appears to be encased in a giant Kremling skull or a statue of a Kremling skull, which has steam coming from its nostrils and glowing red eyes. Several mine shafts are located here also. The Kremling Krew had been mining for precious gems and minerals for weapons before being interrupted by the Kongs. There are remains of several ships lodged in the volcano, possibly meaning that the area may have not always been volcanic. Water also seems to flow into the area, or there is at least a large deposit of it underground, as the remains of a ship are flooded with it; the water constantly fluctuates between being boiling hot or extremely cool. At the end of Donkey Kong Country 2, Crocodile Cauldron, along with the rest of Crocodile Isle, ends up sinking to the bottom of the ocean.

Many window frames are made of wood. The most common problem with window frames is sticking caused by:
- Broken sash cords
New paint is a major cause of windows sticking. Sticking of freshly painted windows can be prevented by leaving the window slightly open while painting. As soon as the paint dries, slide the window up and down. Do not wait too long because paint hardens as it ages.
If the window has been painted shut for a while, it will be difficult to open. Use a putty knife to cut through the paint seal. Never pry the window open with a chisel or pry bar.
Even if you use a piece of wood to protect the sill, the window sash will be dented.
Windows that are badly stuck may have to be removed from the frame. The sliding part of the window (sash) is held in place by two strips of wood called stops. Carefully pry up the stops. Remember, you want to use these stops again. A little patience saves buying, cutting, fitting, and painting a new piece of wood. Don't drive the nails back out through the stop after the stop is off. Use pliers and pull the nails out through the back side of the stop. This will leave a neat little hole.
With the sash out, you may sand or scrape off the excess paint. When the weather is dry, cover any bare wood with a thin coat of paint or fast-drying sealer.
Paint protects wood frames. If moisture soaks the frame, the wood will swell. Never plane a frame that is swollen. Otherwise, when the wood dries, it will be too loose and will rattle in the wind. Instead, rub paraffin, soap, or a stick lubricant on the frame. Warped frames should be planed or sanded. If the wood is warped too much, it must be replaced.
If a sash cord breaks or the weight comes loose, the window will hang crooked, and the window won't stay up. To fix the cord, pry off the stops. Find the sash weight door and
Usually it is held in place by one or two screws. Reach inside and take out the weight. If the sash cord is still good, the weight probably came untied. Retie it and put everything back together.
If you need a new sash cord, make sure it's the same thickness as the old one or it won't run through the pulley. Feed the new cord through and tie one end to the sash and the other end to the weight. The sash cord will stretch, so leave some room under the weight so it won't hit bottom later and keep the window from opening all the way. Move the window up and down to see if you've tied the weight too high or too low. When you're sure everything works, put it back together again.
When you put the stops back, ignore the old nail holes. Tap the nails in a new place, but, to avoid hammer dents, stop before you hit the frame. Finish driving the nails with a nail set. Cover the nail heads and fill in the old holes with wood putty: After several days, when the putty is dry, touch up with paint.
As a building ages, it settles..Structural settling is another cause for windows jamming. If the windows are being twisted out of line, the entire frame must be removed and reset in the wall.
Wood frame windows are often replaced by aluminum ones. Other new frames are vinyl (plastic) over a wood core.
Casement windows open with a crank that needs a yearly greasing. Because these cranks rust, you will have to keep them clean and painted. Casement windows are usually easier to care for.than wooden frame windows.
Most older houses have wooden window frames. However, most new homes have plastic or aluminum frames.
Remove the window only as a last resort. Carefully remove the stops, then pull the nails out through the back of the stop with pliers.
Painting across the moving parts of a window is a major cause of sticking. Running a putty knife between the stop and the sash will help free the window.
Lubricate all moving surfaces on the window and frame with a hard piece of soap or paraffin to help them slide better.
To repair a sash cord, remove the door in the window frame, reach in, and take out the sash weight.
Tie a knot in one end of the sash cord and fit it into the sash groove. Tie a nail to the other end for weight and feed the cord over the pulley. Raise the window and reach into the opening. Pull out the new cord. Tie it to the sash weight.
Clean casement window cranks at least once a year. Grease the track and oil the crank handle and window hinges.

1 drop is equal to 0._PHONE_ milliliter. A drop is considered an approximated unit of measure. That will tell you approximately how many mls are in the dropper.
There Are 15.419629805528 Drop In A Milliliter.
One drop is approximately 0.05 ml resulting in 20 drops per ml. This meaning was used in pharmacy to describe a volume equal to one 60th of a fluid dram or one 480th of a fluid ounce. For example, to convert 2 ml to gtt, multiply 2 by 20, that makes 40 gtt in 2 ml.
11 Rows 1 Drop = 0.05 Ml.
Many eye drops are available in volumes sufficient to last about one month. Only one drop is enough to be instilled into the eye at a time and delivers the required dose. This is equal to about 61.6 μl (u.s.) or 59.2 μl (britain).
It Is Crucial To Set The Drip Rate.
When attempting to determine the drop volume of commercially available glaucoma medications, clinicians sometimes use the rule of thumb equation that every milliliter of medication will yield approximately twenty drops. A 5 ml bottle has 100 doses and a 10 ml bottle has 200 doses. We use the average of 30 drops.

TAC-3000 prevents tower crane collisions
24 April 2008
The TAC-3000 tower crane anti-collision from Persha International uses wireless technology to monitor the actions of all cranes on a construction site. The anti-collision, boundary, and zone protection capabilities are suited for single or multi-crane installations, can be used on top slewing and luffing cranes, and is programmable for up to ten cranes per site. Distributed via a high-speed network, Persha claims the TAC-3000 requires minimal commissioning time compared to systems that use a mechanical interface.
The anti-collision feature detects and anticipates the risk of hook block, jib, or counter jib collision when multiple cranes of different or same height are in use.
Boundary protection is achieved with a 25-point area in which the hook block cannot operate or over-fly.
The zone protection feature can determine up to six prohibited zones in which the hook block or jib are not allowed to operate. It prevents the hook block from over-flying restricted zones like buildings, highways and other public areas.

Stream study illustrates big pollution problem
Posted at 1:07pm Wednesday 03 Jul, 2019
Amelie Che with fishing line that was among the litter found on the beach. The stream's water clarity was tested.
A group of 40 Year 8 students from Wentworth College got out in the field with scientists last month, assisting with studies into water quality and habitat in Stanmore Bay Stream.
The work took place under the guidance of Sarah Dimitrijevic of Whitebait Connection.
The results are being used in the Hibiscus and Bays inanga/whitebait spawning project which is funded by a grant from the Hibiscus and Bays Local Board.
Global Perspectives teacher Sharon Addis says it was an opportunity for students to have hands-on fieldwork experience and begin to understand how human actions impact on our local environment and the species that live there.
The students also did a beach clean up along Stanmore Bay with a focus on looking closely for microplastics – pieces of plastic less than five millimetres long – which can be harmful to aquatic life. In one hour they filled three icecream containers, which demonstrates the enormity of this environmental problem.

Many months ago I was researching robotics and after many hours of watching stanford university lectures I started to draw up loads of diagrams of skeleton stick man who I could use to show my theory of ball bearing robots. This theory works off the Six degrees of freedom (6DoF) which are backwards, forwards, up, down, left, right, pitch, yaw and roll.
If you interlink a robot with ball bearings you will end up with many degrees of freedom because each ball bearing point will contain the Six Degrees of Freedom, this will allow the robot to become very flexible. When we bend our fingers we only have a certain amount of freedom where as a robot built with small ball bearings could in theory curl its finger joint and is able touch behind the knuckle joint.
The diagram below demonstrates how it is possible to use ball bearings to touch the back of a finger.
In reality this is a simple concept but it will take some engineering to make it happen, let me know what you all think in the comments below.

I'm facing problem in adding a drawable object to a Parcel object, in order to send an object from one activity to another activity.
There are methods like writeString(String) to add strings to a Parcel object. But do not know how to add a Drawable to the Parcel object.

You cannot add a Drawable to a Parcel, as Drawable does not implement the Parcelable interface. Certain types of Drawable might implement Parcelable, but I am not aware of any.
You can put in the Parcel some identifier (e.g., drawable resource ID) and have the recipient obtain the Drawable on its own.
share|improve this answer
I think you can try wrapping the Drawable inside an object that implements Parcelable.
share|improve this answer
You can do that using Bitmap and BitmapDrawable.
Let's say you have a Drawable called drawable and a Parcel (in which the object should be written) called parcel.
To write a Drawable into a Parceable:
if ( drawable!= null ) {
 Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) ((BitmapDrawable) drawable).getBitmap();
 parcel.writeParcelable(bitmap, flags);
else {
 parcel.writeParcelable(null, flags);
To read the Drawable from the Parceable:
Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) in.readParcelable(getClass().getClassLoader());
if ( bitmap!= null ) {
 drawable = new BitmapDrawable(bitmap);
else {
 drawable = null;
In particular, since the constructor BitmapDrawable (Bitmap bitmap) has been deprecated, you might want to use BitmapDrawable (Resources res, Bitmap bitmap) instead.
drawable = new BitmapDrawable(context.getResources(), bitmap);

Scrapbooking with Sea Glass and Netting
Create a nautical theme by embellishing scrapbook pages with sea glass and coastal netting.
Coastal Netting Pockets
Coastal netting is fine, loosely woven hemp that's very versatile. It's available in a variety of colors and adds a natural, textural accent to scrapbook pages. You can fashion it into pockets for displaying special greeting cards, postcards, brochures, maps or other memorabilia. Here's how to make them:
Materials and Tools:
coastal netting (or any type of netlike fiber)
¼-inch-wide double-sided scrapbook tape
card stock
glitter or embossing powder (optional)
1. Apply scrapbook tape along the bottom edge of the cardstock, allowing the protective cover to remain.
2. Apply two strips of scrapbook tape to the back of the card stock to secure the ends of the netting.
3. Cut a length of netting and press it to the tape on the front of the card stock to secure.
4. Fold the netting over the card stock and adhere the ends to tape on the back of the card stock.
5. Sprinkle glitter or embossing powder over the bottom edge of netting to cover any exposed adhesive, if desired.
Sea Glass Mosaics
Sea glass, aka beach glass, is a popular scrapbook embellishment. Besides simply decorating pages with it, you can use an engraver to carve title letters into the surfaces of pieces. Here's how to work with it:
Materials and Tools:
sea glass
1-inch-wide double-sided scrapbook tape
card stock
engraver (optional)
1. Cover one side of sea glass with scrapbook tape and trim it even with the edge of the sea glass. Note: Be sure the entire surface is covered with tape, or it will show through.
2. Arrange the sea glass into a mosaic pattern on the page, or use them for a page title, engraving letters into the pieces with an engraver.

Examining Mathematics Anxiety of Undergraduates Using a Brain-Based Measurement, EEG
MetadataShow full item record
This paper reports on an investigation of mathematics anxiety (MA) among 40 Korean undergraduate students, using cognitive neuroscience. In Spring 2015, we collected data on correct response rates and reaction times from computer-based activities related to quadratic functions. We also measured brain response through event related potentials (ERP). Results demonstrate that students with higher mathematics anxiety (HMA) took more time than students with lower mathematics anxiety (LMA), both in translating equations to graphs and in translating graphs to equations. Moreover, based on analysis of ERP, brain waves of the HMA group recorded higher amplitude. In specific, both groups showed higher amplitude in translation from graphs to equation than vice versa. Higher amplitudes indicate greater demands on working memory, which we discuss in the concluding section, especially with regard to MA.

Plant With Purpose Phraseology:
Soil Conservation Barriers
Written by Plant With Purpose on May 27, 2014 in Phraseology
The flat farmlands that make up middle America are what many people envision when they think of growing crops. Nothing says farming like the green and gold of a John Deere tractor. However, many of the rural communities that partner with Plant With Purpose exist in elevations where the only land to farm is made of steep slopes. Not only does this mean farmers need sure footing for planting and cultivating hillsides, it also means that traditional farm equipment is not conducive (let alone affordable) for farming families to utilize.
In an effort to stop erosion, conserve topsoil, and cultivate the land available to these rural communities, Plant With Purpose trains farmers in establishing barriers—both living and nonliving—to build up soil quality.
Here are some steps for constructing these barriers:
1. Soil conservation barriers are constructed using an A-frame, which allows them to follow the contours of the hillsides. The A-frame acts as a level.
2. Rocks are piled.
3. Trenches are dug.
4. Pineapples, sugar cane, grasses, or nitrogen-fixing plants are planted.
5. Trees may also be planted to further anchor the soil.
Meticulous attention is paid to the layout of these barriers and over time help to establish hillside farms. Close to 2,000 miles of soil conservation barriers have been established by partnering famers around the world meaning restored farms and brighter tomorrows.
What are you doing to restore soil where you live?

Defining and interpreting OTUs
 OTU /denoising analysis
 OTU commands
The otutab command generates an OTU table by mapping reads to OTUs.
OTU table output
See OTU table output options.
Normalizing the table
After generating the table,I recommend using the otutab_rare command to normalize all samples to the same number of reads.
Query dataset
The query file can be in FASTQ or FASTA format. Every query sequence must be labeled with a sample identifier. The fastx_get_sample_names command can be used to check that your sample names are formatted correctly.
Query sequences are typically raw reads, i.e. reads after paired read merging, if applicable, but before quality filtering. Low-quality reads and singletons can often be mapped successfully to an OTU, so including them accounts for a larger fraction of the reads (see OTU coverage). The fastx_uniques_persample command can be used to find the unique sequences and abundances for all samples. This compresses the input data and makes the otutab command somewhat faster but probably not as much as you might expect (typically, the compression is only ~2x).
OTU database
The search database is either a set of OTU sequences or "ZOTU" sequences, i.e. denoised sequences. Each query sequence is mapped to the closest database sequence. Ties are broken systematically by picking the first in database file order. A udb database can be used. Database sequences must be labeled with OTU identifiers. The database file is specified by the -otus or -zotus option. Use -zotus if the OTUs are denoised, -otus otherwise.
Identity threshold for mapping
The -id option sets the minimum fractional identity. Default is 0.97, corresponding to 97% identity. Denoised OTUs also use a 97% identity threshold by default to allow for sequencing and PCR error. See defining and interpreting OTUs and mapping reads to OTUs for discussion.
By default, reads are assumed to be on the same strand as the OTU sequences. You can use -strand both to search both strands.
Other output files
Standard output files are supported for reporting hits.
The -mapout option specifies a tabbed text file name with two fields, 1. read label and 2. OTU label. You would get the same output by using -userout with -userfields query+target with -top_hit_only.
The -notmatched option specifies a FASTA filename for sequences which are not assigned to an OTU.
The -notmatchedfq option specifies a FASTQ file for unassigned sequences (input must be FASTQ).
Multithreading is supported.

An Early British Sailor''s Woolwork Picture of the Royal Yacht, HMY Victoria and Albert II, Circa 1855-70 Dimensions: 27 inches x 20 inches HMY Victoria and Albert II (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) HMY Victoria and Albert, a 360 foot steamer launched 16 January 1855, was a Royal Yacht of the Sovereign of the United Kingdom until 1900, owned and operated by the Royal Navy. She displaced 2,470 tons, and could make 15 knots on her paddles. There were 240 crew. Victoria and Albert II was scrapped in about 1904. The El Horria was built to the same specifications for Isma''il Pasha, the Khedive of Egypt in 1865 and is the oldest steamship afloat.

Summary Article: Rusk, (David) Dean (_PHONE_) from The Hutchinson Unabridged Encyclopedia with Atlas and Weather guide
US Democrat politician. He was secretary of state to presidents J F Kennedy and L B Johnson 1961–69, and became unpopular through his involvement with the Vietnam War.
He was prominent in Korean War negotiations. Convinced of the need not to appease communist expansionism, he played a key part in the US decision to defend South Korea against invasion by North Korea. However, he advised President Kennedy against the unsuccessful Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961.
Early career Rusk was born in Cherokee County, Georgia, the son of a Presbyterian minister, and studied politics at Oxford University as a Rhodes scholar. He taught political science on his return to the USA, before military service during the World War II, where he was involved in intelligence and guerrilla operations in Burma (now Myanmar). He joined the US State Department after the war and progressed to becoming assistant secretary for Far Eastern affairs 1950–51. In 1952, when the Republican general Dwight Eisenhower was elected president, Rusk left the State Department to become president of the internationalist Rockefeller Foundation.
A hawk Despite criticism from peace campaigners, Rusk never wavered in his advocacy of a firm interventionist line in Vietnam in an effort to halt the perceived spread of communism. Having been appointed secretary of state by Kennedy, he continued in that office under Lyndon Johnson, before retiring in 1969 to teach international law at the University of Georgia. Liberal on social issues but hawkish and internationalist on external matters, Rusk was an archetypal 'defence Democrat'.

Opened in December 2021, the Family Kitchen Shop and Restaurant at Royal Botanic Gardens Kew offers families a place to shop, eat and engage with the natural world, learning more about where food comes from and discovering the important role that plants and fungi play in our lives.
Designed by Lumsden Design, the new shop has sustainability threaded through every aspect, making it the deserving winner of the Cultural Enterprises Sustainability Award earlier this year. As Retail and eCommerce Operations Officer Emma Sinclair explains, sustainability was the key consideration when conceiving and creating everything related to the project and space.
"The building was designed to help reach the Royal Botanic Gardens commitment of going beyond achieving net zero carbon emissions and to be climate positive by 2030. The building is constructed in timber, includes 71 photovoltaic roof panels generating 30 megawatt hours of electricity per annum, is BREEAM (Building Research Establishment's Environmental Assessment Method) Excellent and approximately 80% of the hot water used in the building is heated using heat recycled from the front of house areas, shop and kitchen.
"Kew Gardens for many is a place that celebrates learning and nature, inspiring a younger generation to discover the important role that plants and fungi play in all our lives. With the new shop space, we wanted to reflect these beliefs whilst creating a vibrant, welcoming and colourful environment for all to shop, learn and enjoy.
"The first thing you notice when you enter are the brightly coloured zones which reflect the six key multi-sensory learning zones in the space – Diversity, Autumn, Science, Water, Sun and Spring. We reflected these zones within the shop through vinyl shapes and playful display units to denote the different areas. Fixtures in the shop celebrate sustainability and materiality whilst also being welcoming and engaging. FSC Wood is utilised throughout, and the multicoloured tables resemble ants and beetles which have inspired some of the key product ranges within the space, making for creative and eye-catching visual merchandising.
"We created a reading area in the Books section featuring many of our well-known Kew publishing titles and a giant pink earthworm bench which customers young and old love sitting on to read or capture a family selfie! The lighting in the space is also a talking point – fluffy cloud lights hang above you as you enter, and a recycled cardboard honeycomb pendant light that mimics Kew's iconic Hive installation is the centrepiece. The till countertop is made from recycled yoghurt pots creating a unique marble style material with flecks of paper and metallic foil running through it and there are sculptural mushroom shaped tables made from trees felled at Kew Gardens during Arboretum maintenance across the space.
"All ranges for the shop were purchased using our Ethical and Environmental Sourcing Policy, ensuring all suppliers stocked at Kew meet required standards. We took the decision to move away from plastic and instead opted for FSC approved wooden toys which last longer and align with objectives outlined in our 2021 organisational Sustainability Strategy. We introduced a children's gardening range to inspire a new generation of horticulturalists, including seed tins to grow your own, easy care house plants, colourful children's gardening tools and plant pots made from recycled plastic, produced with wind energy. Our popular Bees of Kew, Bugs and Beetles range also expanded in keeping with the shop theming and was particularly popular during the April 2022 Easter Bank Holiday Family Programme for The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle.
"We also partnered with sustainable clothing company Frugi on their SS22 collection featuring colourful, fun prints inspired by flowers that bloom in spring. 90% of the range featured GOTS certified organic cotton alongside sustainable or recycled materials and extendable cuffs, waistbands and shoulder straps, which grow with the child to avoid having to purchase larger sizes so regularly.
"To date, we have seen a considerable increase in customer conversion compared with the former White Peaks children shop. We believe this can be attributed to the shop's imaginative and inspiring look and feel and product offerings that reflect our core values with varied price architecture for broad appeal. The shop has also been an incredibly popular addition to our Christmas at Kew lights trail, offering an alternative family offer for those visiting with younger children and families."
A vibrant, interactive and fun place to shop with sustainability threaded through every aspect of the design and ranges.The Judges, Cultural Enterprises Awards
