Customizing the window manager
Function constraints
Some functions cannot be used within some of the sections in the window manager configuration file. For example, you cannot use the f.title function to define a button or key binding; you can only use it in the menu specification section.
There are also constraints regarding the context in which a function can be used. For example, the f.minimize function only applies to windows ; it does not work when the pointer is on the Root menu or an icon.
You can configure a function's context as long as you stay within the limits of that function's constraints. For example, you can configure the f.kill function to work with icons, windows, or both. However, because the Root window is not an available context in which to use f.kill, you cannot configure it for use here.
''Function contexts'' describes the seven contexts in which functions can be used.
Function contexts
Context Description
app The function can be performed when the pointer is on the application window, not including the window frame.
border The function can be performed when the pointer is on the border of the window frame, not including the title bar.
frame The function can be performed when the pointer is on the window frame around a client window, including the border and title bar.
icon The function can be performed when the pointer is on an icon. Note that icon refers to window manager icons only, not Desktop icons.
root The function can be performed when:
 1. the pointer is on the Root menu, and
 2. neither a client window nor an icon is to be acted upon by the function.
title The function can be performed when the pointer is on the title area of the window frame.
window The function can be performed when the pointer is on a client window, including the title bar and frame. Some functions, such as f.maximize, apply only when the window is normalized. Others, such as f.normalize, apply only when the window is maximized or minimized.
''Where functions can be used'' describes the contexts that are available to each of the window manager functions, as well as the sections of the window manager configuration file in which you can use the functions. Note that ''button'' represents the button binding section, ''key'' represents the key binding section, and ''menu'' represents the menu specification section.

Random information on the term "EIRE":
The Proto-Celtic language, also called Common Celtic, is the reconstructed ancestor language of all the known Celtic languages. Its lexis can be confidently reconstructed on the basis of the comparative method of historical linguistics. As Celtic is a branch of the Indo-European language family, Proto-Celtic is a descendant of the Proto-Indo-European language. According to one theory, Celtic may be closest to the Italic languages, which together form an Italo-Celtic branch. The earliest archaeological culture that may justifiably be considered as Proto-Celtic is the Late Bronze Age Urnfield culture of Central Europe from the last quarter of the second millennium BC. By the Iron Age Hallstatt culture of around 800 BC, these people had become fully Celtic.

live=300
Possible values
Number between 0 and 300
Meaning
Specifies maximum allowed time for a test case run in seconds
- If we don't have the parameter set, the default value will be used
- Maximum time for every test is 300 seconds (5 minutes) and can't be higher than that.
- The user can put in a smaller value than 300 seconds, for example 60 seconds. If the test would finish in 20 seconds, everything would be fine, but if the test carries on for more than 60 seconds it will fail with a message that the maximum time exceeded.
Examples
mx.time_to_live=60
mx.time_to_live=360
mx.notify
Default value
mx.notify=false
Possible values
true' or 'false
Meaning
Specifies if we should get an email notification about test run results.

Default value
Email address of the owner of the project
Possible values
Email address, or email addresses separated by ',' (comma) character
Meaning
If the parameter "mx.notify" has value "true", then this parameter specifies to which email addresses should the notification be sent.
- If we want the notification to be sent to _EMAIL_, we would do that in the following way:
mx.notify.email=_EMAIL_
- If we want to send the notifications to multiple email addresses, we would do that in the following way:
mx.notify.email=_EMAIL_, _EMAIL_
- If parameter "mx.notify" has value "false", parameter "mx.notify.email" will be ignored.

Default value
mx.notify.on_outcome=fail
Possible values
fail' or 'pass' or 'always
Meaning
If the parameter "mx.notify" has value "true", then this parameter specifies in which cases would the notification be sent.
- If the value is 'fail' the notification will be sent only if the test run fails.
- If the value is 'pass' the notification will be sent only if the test run succeeded.
- If the value is 'always' the notification will be sent when the test run finishes.
- If the parameter "mx.notify" is set to "false", the parameter "mx.notify_on_outcome" will be ignored.
Examples:
1) If the parameters for notify were set in the following way:
mx.notify=true
The email would be sent to the owner of the project, only if the test failed.
2) If the parameters for notify were set in the following way:
mx.notify.email=_EMAIL_
mx.notify.on_outcome=always
Because the parameter "mx.notify" has the default value "false", the other parameters will be ignored, and the notification won't get sent.
3) If the parameters for notify were set in the following way:
mx.notify=true
mx.notify.email=_EMAIL_
mx.notify.on_outcome=pass
If the test run succeeds, the notification will be sent to the email address: _EMAIL_
4) If the parameters for notify were set in the following way:
mx.notify=true
mx.notify.email=_EMAIL_, _EMAIL_, _EMAIL_
Because parameter "mx.notify.on_outcome" has default value "fail", if the fails, the notification would be sent to the following email addresses: _EMAIL_, _EMAIL_, _EMAIL_
mx.datadriven

Default value

Possible values
Location of the data driven file
Example: mx.datadriven.file=/dd/data.csv
Meaning
Specifies test as a data driven test and points to a location of the data driven file.
- Supported file types (extensions) are .csv and .xls (.xlsx)
- If the value of the parameter is "mx.datadriven.file" value is "/dd/data.csv", but before we run a test we pass a data driven file from UI, the parameter will be ignored, and the file that was passed from the UI will be used.
- If the parameter "mx.datadriven.file" has a set value, the test will count as a data driven test.
Example:
1) If the parameter 'mx.datadriven.file' was set in the following way:
mx.datadriven.file=/dd/data.csv
That would mean that the test is data driven and that the data driven file is on the location "/dd/data.csv"

Default value
mx.datadriven.runtype=serial
Possible values
serial' or 'parallel
Meaning
Specifies in what way would we execute the rows from the data driven file.
- If the value of the parameter is set to "parallel", but we set it to "serial" from UI, the data driven rows would be executed in serial because the UI dialog has higher priority.

Meaning
With the help of that parameter, we can get the value of the column from a data driven file by a column name.
- This parameter is always used as a variable.
Examples:
 1. If we want to get value for parameter "place" for a column named "city" inside the data driven file, we could do that in the following way:
 2. place=${mx.datadriven.name.city}
 For "${}" usage, refer to our documentation.

 Meaning
 With the help of that parameter, we can get the value of the column from a data driven file by a column number.
 - This parameter is always used as a variable.
 Examples:
 3. If we want to get value for parameter "place" from 3rd column inside the data driven file, we could do that in the following way:
 place=${mx.datadriven.col.3}
 For "${}" usage, refer to our documentation.

Values
If the bridge is active, the value of the parameter is bridge address, if not, it has no value
Meaning
Specifies bridge address
- It's specification is in the "user" layer.
- It exists only when MaxTAF Bridge is active (Look at MaxTAF Bridge documentation).
mx.selenium

Default value

Possible values
"${mx.system.common_pool}",
"${mx.system.private_pool}"
or selenium server address.
Example: "_URL_
Meaning
This parameter specifies the selenium server address on which tests should be executed
- If the value is "${mx.system.common_pool}", the common pool will be used for running the tests. Common pool is a pool of selenium nodes that everyone using MaxTAF Cloud shares. See more in the common pool section.
- If the value is "${mx.system.private_pool}", the private pool will be used for running the tests. Private pool is a pool of selenium nodes that only you use, and are created on demand. See more in the private pool section.
- If the bridge is active, the parameter will have the following value: 'mx.selenium.server=${mx.user.mx.bridge.address}/wd/hub'. The configuration for this is in the "user" layer.

Default value
mx.selenium.enable_video_recording=false
Possible values
true' or 'false
Meaning
This parameter specifies if the video of the test run should be recorded for later analysis
- If the parameter "mx.selenium.enable_video_recording" is set to "true", the video will be recorded during run, and when the test finishes, the video will appear inside the "video" tab which can be expanded.

Default value
mx.selenium.browser=chrome
Possible values
internetexplorer', 'edge', 'chrome' or 'firefox
Meaning
Specifies which browser should be used when running a test

Default value
mx.selenium.mode=remote
Possible values
remote' or 'local
Meaning
Specifies if the remote selenium server should be used for running the tests, or if the tests are going to be run locally.

Default value
mx.selenium.slow_down_level=0
Possible values
Any number greater than 0
Meaning
How much the tests should be slowed if they are too quick for you to monitor them by eyes (in seconds)

Default value

Possible values
Address of any HTTP proxy server
Meaning
Specifies which HTTP proxy server should be used in order to route requests
- Pretty useful if you want location consistency. For example a test that does Google Searches in the United Kingdom only.
In order to understand these parameters, it is necessary to understand layers and variables.
mx.test.### mx.suite.### mx.user.### mx.project.### mx.system.### are not parameters but prefixes, and they are used for retrieving values of the parameters that exist in some other layer.
"mx" stands for "MaxTAF", and next word specifies the layer and can be test, suite, user, project or system
Example:
 1. If we have parameter "time" inside "project" layer and we want to get its value, we could do that in the following way:
 2. timeValue=${mx.project.time}
 3. If we have a parameter "time" in "user" layer and we want to get its value, we could do that in the following way:
 4. timeValue=${mx.user.time}
 5. If we have parameter "

Raindrop: An Innovative Educational Tool for River Awareness
This project will create a new educational tool for river awareness in the United States through a mobile device application called Raindrop. Raindrop traces the flow of water from the user's home location to a downstream watershed location. Raindrop is part of a larger installation named FLOW (Can You See the River?), which joins the cognitive power of science with the affective power of the arts by creating virtual and physical spaces for river awareness in the White River watershed in Indianapolis, IN. In addition to the flow path, Raindrop functionality includes watershed context and physical marker mapping, flow path water quality indicators, utilization of NOAA weather feeds and alerts, weather and climate comparisons, storm event size implications, and guidance on watershed restoration actions. Artist-designed physical markers are strategically located in the watershed to direct the virtual user to physical areas of interest.

Floating Houses – Chances And Problems
Free (open access)
221 - 233
H. Stopp & P. Strangfeld
Floating architecture could be a resolution in the future for current problems in many districts, cities and landscapes. Such problems can be seen particularly in the need for additional housing areas and construction grounds in some countries in Europe and Asia as a result of the growing population and/or the slowly rising sea level in context with the worldwide climate change. Another example for problems of current interest is the use of alternative energies. The water areas of channels and closed down harbours offer good opportunities to create new water landscapes with modern marinas consisting of floating houses and other floating architecture. As this paper will show, this is achieved in the same way that brownfields, such as the pits of former opencast lignite mines, are appropriated for such modern marinas after their transformation into post-mining lakes. Thereby, the possible use of water as an alternative energy source is demonstrated too. On the other hand there are a lot of new problems with regard to the physical and chemical effects of water on the constructions of floating architecture. New materials and structures must be developed in order to withstand the attacks of waves, sea climate, salts and ph-values. The harmonisation between architecture and nature is to be discussed. Moreover, there are questions about energy and water supply, waste disposal and safety. Three years ago a new project was started with regard to these topics. The first results of the investigations supported by experiments and numerical simulations are presented in the paper. Keywords: floating architecture, floating houses, post-mining lakes.

This map shows how the south east part of Sherington might have looked c.1300. It is not an actual old map, but a reconstruction by Professor Chibnall originally published as Map 3 in his book "Sherington: Fiefs and Fields of a Buckinghamshire Village".
The distribution of land is given in the following tables: Open Fields - Demesne. This information is taken from Tables 49/50/51 and 47/48 of Chibnall's book, respectively. Note that there are a number of detailed discrepancies between the information on the map and that given in the tables.

Many important applications in biology have underlying datasets that are relational, that is, only the (dis)similarity between biological objects (amino acid sequences, gene expression profiles, etc.) is known and not their feature values in some feature space. Examples of such relational datasets are the gene similarity matrices obtained from BLAST, gene expression data, or gene ontology (GO) similarity measures. Once a relational dataset is obtained, a common question asked is how many groups of objects are represented in the original dataset. The answer to this question is usually obtained by employing a clustering algorithm and a cluster validity measure. In this article we describe a cluster validity measure for non-Euclidean relational fuzzy c-means that is based on the correlation between a relation induced on the data by the cluster memberships and the original relational data. This validity measure can be applied to partitions made by any fuzzy relational clustering algorithm. We illustrate our measure by validating clusters in several dissimilarity matrices for a set of 194 gene products obtained using BLAST and GO similarities.

The location of the divide xd, where ^ is maximum, is obtained from xd$x xdxx
Note that xd could be larger than L or could be negative. In those cases, the divide does not exist, and the flow occurs in one direction throughout the aquifer.
Figure 9.4.6 shows radial flow in an unconfined aquifer with infiltration. If a cylinder has a radius r, the amount of water infiltrating into the cylinder is equal to Qin = Not2, and the amount of water flowing out of the cylinder is equal to 2ot • hqr = 2m"Qr.

LEM, a validated cartoon character that expresses 8 emotions
Why work with a cartoon character?
The LEMtool has been developed to depict emotions in the clearest, most recognizable way. In order to achieve this, LEM – a cartoon character, has been developed that shows eight caricatured expressions of emotions3. Facial caricaturing (reduction of facial information redundant to the expression and exaggeration of the essential components) has been found to enhance the recognizability of emotions.
Why not add the words to explain the expression?
We deliberately do not explain which emotions are expressed by the character. This 'non-verbal approach' actually adds reliability to the tests. Often, people are feeling similar emotions, but refer to it with different words. With our scientifically validated cartoon characters you surpass the verbal word-significance discussion.
A great benefit of this approach is that it can be used cross-culturally: Between cultures, there are tons of small differences between words that are used to express emotions.
We might feel the same emotion, but call it differently
- How the LEMtool avoids the verbal word-significance discussion
Our research shows that even though different people use different words to express a specific emotion, they choose the same cartoon character expression because it best represents their felt emotion. This illustrates that these people are actually feeling the same, but merely call it differently.

The Randolph County Strategic Plan is focused on optimizing Public Health, Safety, and Well-Being, by answering four broad questions: Where have we been?; Where are we now?; Where do we want to be?; and How do we get there?
Facilitated by County staff with technical support from the Piedmont Triad Regional Council, this initiative includes a wide range of local governments, organizations, and citizens from across the county. The process began with the development of a detailed Environmental Data Scan to provide a clear picture of the county – past, present, and future. Steering Committee members used this information to identify and prioritize key strategic issues impacting Randolph County communities. Our 60-member Steering Committee includes the Chair of the Board of County Commissioners, mayors, city managers, health care professionals, educators, human service providers, public safety providers, chambers of commerce, economic development, and planning professionals, and citizens representing a broad cross-section of county interests. In addition, more than 100 citizens served on three task forces (Public Health, Public Safety and Well-Being) with various sub-committees, and met monthly to discuss issues and develop strategic goals and strategies. Significant input from other planning processes was also integrated into the plan. The Steering Committee and Task Force members worked diligently to develop an action plan that focuses limited resources on key strategic issues facing the county to make a positive, lasting impact on the communities we serve.
Common themes emerging from our work together include:
- Improving development and recruitment of qualified workers for industry, agriculture, health care, education, and critical government services.
- Making tangible quality of life improvements to enhance our county's recruitment and marketing efforts.
- Developing proactive prevention programs to reduce the debilitating and costly effects of existing and emerging community and mental health challenges.
- Reducing barriers to critical services. Aligning resources to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of services by: -reducing silos between organizations; -increasing communication, cooperation and collaboration among public agencies, private agencies and institutions to gain a better mutual understanding of issues and challenges; and -developing mutually-beneficial solutions.

There two methods used to lock/unlock the car via a smart phone. Namely; short form or long form communication. SLICK's key value proposition is that it uses short form communication. This enables a direct connection from your phone to the SLICK hardware unit via Bluetooth. Therefore, you can:
- Easily connect to your car even when you are out of network coverage area/underground, as there is no internet requirement.
- Ensure higher safety and prevent unauthorized access, as you need to be physically present within 5-10 meters of the car to access it.
- Establish a faster & direct connection
- Have lesser points of failure.


text: Abstract: The current study aims at increasing the strength and heat resistance of concrete that can be used in airport pavements for vertical take-off and landing of new generation F-35B combat aircraft by improving concrete mixtures. For this purpose, two different mixtures with lightweight (expanded glass aggregate) and traprock (basalt) aggregate were prepared. The mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of the mixtures were determined, 3D maps of cracks that occurred with the flexural tensile strength tests were examined using fractal analysis, and the fracture energy of the samples was obtained. A statistically significant extremely high correlation was found between fractal dimension and flexural tensile strength. No significant compressive strength losses were observed in samples after heat exposure. We determined that the mechanical properties of the basalt aggregate mixture were better than the expanded glass aggregate mixture, however, its thermal conductivity was higher.

The 2021 Ontario Economic Report is Here!
This week, the Ontario Chamber of Commerce (OCC) released the fifth annual Ontario Economic Report (OER), providing the latest data on Ontario's economy and business confidence, highlighting the unprecedented year that was 2020 and the unpredictability that lies in the year ahead.
Key highlights include:
- Ontario witnessed a steep decline in real GDP growth (-5.6 percent) in 2020 but is projected to see a moderate rebound of 4.8 percent in 2021, fuelled largely in part by expectations for vaccination rollout and the eventual re-opening of the economy.
- In 2020, only 21 percent of survey respondents expressed confidence in Ontario's economic outlook. Less than half of Ontario businesses (48 percent) are confident in the outlook of their own organizations over the next year. o Small businesses are more pessimistic about Ontario's outlook than larger ones. Only 20 percent of small businesses expressed confidence in Ontario's economy, compared to 27 percent of medium and large businesses.
- The majority (58 percent) of survey respondents said their organizations shrank between April and September, while only 17 percent grew.
- Employment growth declined throughout the province in 2020, with 47 percent of organizations indicating they let employees go due to COVID-19.
- Sectors most negatively impacted by the crisis included: accommodation and food services; arts, entertainment, and recreation; and retail. Businesses in these sectors were among those most pessimistic about the economic outlook and most likely to have shrunk and let go of staff in 2020.
- Businesses' priorities for governments during economic recovery included enhancing access to capital, reforming business taxes, encouraging Ontarians to buy local, and investing in broadband infrastructure.
Muskoka-Kawartha Economic Region Highlight:
- 2020 Employment data shows far fewer job losses in Muskoka-Kawarthas than other regions in 2020 (change in employment was -0.9 percent in Muskoka-Kawarthas and -4.9 percent across Ontario).
- Survey respondents in the Muskoka-Kawartha region indicate that 48% have let staff go while 42% experienced change and 10% have or plan to hire.
Muskoka-Kawarthas region is projected to have a lower jobless rate of 7.3% in 2021 compared to 9.2% in 2020.
- The rate of change in employment is projected to be higher at 4% compared to the 0.9% experienced in 2020.
- The region is also projected to have a lower population growth rate of 0.9% compared to the 1.1% recorded in 2020.
- 50% surveyed businesses in the Muskoka-Kawartha region felt the community provided enough economic activity for their business to thrive, while 37% did not feel they could thrive.
This years report is interactive and includes information from recent OCC Member Surveys as well as economic forecasting.
Looking to 2021
No business, region, sector, or demographic should be left behind in the pursuit of economic recovery and growth. Support programs and pro-growth policies should be targeted towards those experiencing the most pronounced challenges. A focus on reskilling as well as widespread access to broadband infrastructure and capital will be necessary to the revival of small business and entrepreneurship as well as an inclusive and robust economic recovery.

Analyze Formal Requirements of an Electric Vehicle Charger Locking Mechanism
This example uses a Requirements Table block to define a set of formal requirements used by a model of an electric vehicle charger locking system. After creating formal requirements for the locking system, you analyze the requirements for issues that can prevent the requirements from being complete and consistent. Once you identify the issues, you adjust the requirements.
When charging an electric vehicle, the charging port of the vehicle can be exposed to high voltages, which can be dangerous to consumers without proper safeguards. Electric chargers and vehicles deploy locking mechanisms to prevent customers from being exposed to these voltages. To ensure the locking mechanism activates and deactivates without creating hazards, the charging station provides signals to the vehicle before, during, and after charging. The vehicle uses those signals to determine when the charging cord can be unlocked and is safe to handle.
View the Formal Requirements
Open the model,
This model adapts the signals used by the charging station from the standard SAE J1772. To capture the signals, the Requirements Table block uses six input ports that are associated with input data of the same name. See Define Data in Requirements Table Blocks.
The input data are:
ChargeStatus: The charging status of the vehicle. The status indicates that the vehicle is not charging (
NotCharging), charging (
ChargeStart), shutting down (
NrmlShutDown), or performing an emergency shut down (
EvseType: If the vehicle is compatible with the charging station or not. The vehicle can be
Incompatible, or undecided (
PilotStatus: The pilot status of the charging station. The pilot status indicates if the charging station is on standby (
A), if the charging station detects the vehicle (
B), if the charging station detects the vehicle and that the vehicle is ready to charge (
C), if the charging station detects the vehicle and that the vehicle is ready for charging in a ventilated area (
D), or if there is an error (
Deach have two substates. Substate
1indicates that the charging station is not ready to charge, and substate
2indicates that the charging station is ready to charge.
SessionStopResMsg: Whether the termination of the charging session has been acknowledged by the charging station (
Received) or not (
Vinlet: The voltage of the charging port measured by the vehicle.
LockCommand: The status of the lock. The lock can either be
The block uses the value of the input data to set the Type property of the data to an enumerated value specified in a MATLAB® program file. For example, the
ChrgStat.m file contains the available statuses for the
Open the block to view the requirements. The Requirements tab lists three simple requirements:
The electric vehicle shall lock the cord in place if the electric vehicle supply equipment is compatible.
The electric vehicle shall unlock the cord if the acknowledge terminate charging session signal is received and the vehicle measures an input voltage that is less than
60V during normal shutdown procedures.
The electric vehicle shall unlock the cord if the pilot status is not ready and the vehicle measures an input voltage that is less than
60V during an emergency shutdown.
Each requirement specifies the checked conditions the Precondition column. If the requirement precondition is satisfied, the block then verifies that the appropriate locking status occurs in the postconditions, specified in the Postcondition column. For example, in the first requirement, the specified precondition checks if the vehicle type is compatible. If true, the block checks if the cord is locked, specified in the postcondition.
Analyze the Requirements for Issues
After creating a requirement set in the block, confirm that the requirements uniquely define the data captured, stored, and generated by the block. In this example, you use Simulink® Design Verifier™ to detect issues in your requirement set for you. These issues are adapted from the ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148 standard. In this example, Simulink Design Verifier detects two kinds of issues:
Inconsistency Issues: The block detects a scenario where the data can equal more than one value during simulation.
Incompleteness Issues: The block detects a scenario where the data is not defined during simulation.
To analyze the table, in the Table tab, in the Analyze section, click Analyze Table.
Update the Requirements
To resolve the issues, you need to update the requirements. For example, to alleviate the inconsistency issue, update the precondition in the first requirement so that the charge status must be charging and the charger must be compatible with the vehicle.
After updating the precondition, run the analysis again to confirm that you have fixed the inconsistency issue.
This update does not resolve the incompleteness issues. To do that, the requirements must specify values for the data defined in the block throughout the simulation. Iterate through updating and analyzing the requirements to resolve these remaining issues.
Open the model
CordLockReqTable_v2 and open the Requirements Table block to see an example of a complete requirement set.
The table includes additional input data,
ChargePlug, that specifies if the cord is plugged into the vehicle (
Plugged) or not (
NotPlugged). The requirement set also includes five additional requirements. To improve readability, the requirements have been rewritten to use additional column headers.
When you design requirements, you must consider the physical limitations of your system. For example, if you develop a requirement that specifies a diameter, you must ensure the diameter cannot be negative. To account for the physical limitations of the system, specify assumptions in the Assumptions tab. See Add Assumptions to Requirements. In this example, the Requirements Table block includes three assumptions.
If the pilot status is on standby (
A), then the car is not charging.
If the vehicle is not compatible with the charger, then the vehicle is not charging.
If the charger is not plugged in, then the vehicle is not charging.
To view the assumptions, click the Assumptions tab.
If you run the analysis on this requirement set, Simulink Design Verifier does not detect issues.

We are using Selenium webservices for our automated functional testing.
I have a test which tests creation of some objects. If I run the same test again, I need to make sure that each test has a different business key - else it will run into unique-constraint violation.
One way, I can fix this is to reset the database before\after every run of test suite so that each test suite doesn't conflict with another. However my individual tests within the same run are not isolated from each other.
How do I get to the point, where all my tests are isolated and do not conflict with each other?
Right now we query the databse to generate random IDs which do not exist in the database. But I am sure there must be a more elegant way of solving this.

You've got several options here. One is, as you mentioned, to reset the database before each run. That's probably a good idea anyway to ensure that you've got the same starting condition and the beginning of the run.
For the individual tests within the run, you can operate a simple counter through the run and use that to generate your business key - that is, your list of objects includes an object number in its data, and your key is generated using that object number.
Some possible options are a timestamp to milliseconds (e.g. 201112081110526) which you save for the test to allow you to check the saved object against your input. An iterator of 1, 2, 3... etc will also give you the same result.
Using something like this will give you a set of tests that aren't going to conflict with each other. Unless you have tests that depend on another object having been created in an earlier test, they should also be independent of each other. Whether your end-of-run database will match your baselines if one test fails will depend on how intelligent your baseline checking is - if you check each object individually after creation, one failed test won't impact baselines, where if all the object checks occur at the end of all creation tests, one failed test could have a major impact. Either way, you'll still have a cleaner test set with known unique IDs that you don't have to run a SQL query to generate.

Kate's answer was very good. Instead of a simple counter, you could generate a GUID to ensure uniqueness if needed. – Joe Strazzere Dec 8 '11 at 20:24
I like the GUID idea! – RN. Dec 9 '11 at 1:36
One possibility is to reset the database before every test, not only before every run of the suite.
This will likely make each run take longer. If you can tolerate the increased duration, that's they way I'd go.
And it may require adding setup to tests that now depend on earlier tests to establish their initial conditions. But that's another way of saying that it makes the tests independent, which is your stated goal.
share|improve this answer
A part of me thinksthis would be too extreme, but then it would get me the isolation that I am trying to achieve. But honestly, not sure if that level of isolation is necessary or even a good idea. – RN. Dec 9 '11 at 1:40

In the Gregorian calendar,the White Dew usually falls around September 7, and more often refers in particular to the day when the sun is exactly at the celestial longitude of 165°. It is the day when the temperature drops sharply, the rain never stops, and the duration of the sunshine decreases substantially. Therefore, the date reflects the transition from summer to autumn. Normally, a period of cloudy and rainy weather occurs after White Dew.
During the White Dew, there are different weather conditions in different parts of China. In the north, the hot summer has ended, dew begins to fall, wild geese begin to migrate to the south, and birds begin to stock food for the long winter. Yet, it may still be very hot in the south. The Yangtze River and Huaihe River valleys are usually very humid during this period. Customs related to the White Dew also vary greatly from one area to another. For example, people in Fuzhou Fujian Province often eat longans to build up their health on this day while residents living around Taihu Lake in Anhui Province hold a ceremony to worship Yu the Great (the legendary founder of the Xia Dynasty and the ancient hero who successfully controlled floods).

Now I want to test a wavelet transform on the same signal, which of course exists in Matlab, but I have one thing which I should clarify: generally, as I know large scale values correspond to small frequencies and small scale values to large frequencies. So, how should I determine if the given frequencies are small or large? Also, which wavelet transform should i use?
For example:
m=cwt(y,1:100,'sym2');
and plot it
plot(m)
enter image description here
How should I read the second picture? What kind of information can I get?

Low scale values compress the wavelet and correlate better with high frequencies. While high scale values stretch the wavelet and correlate better with the low frequency content of the signal.

Can Solar Backpacks Get Wet?
Before investing in a good piece of gear like a solar backpack, it makes sense that you want to make sure it will hold up. There are a lot of different rumors, stories, and claims about how solar backpacks handle water. This article is here to answer all of your questions on the topic.
Solar backpacks are water resistant, but not waterproof. The solar panels will not be damaged from water or rain. So it's perfect fine for solar backpacks to get wet, but as with any pack you don't want an exposed electronic charging when the rain is pouring down and you're soaked.
raindrops on solar panel
Solar Power Must Be Weather Resistant
Considering that solar power by definition needs to be used outdoors, it seems odd to me that so many people wonder if solar backpacks can handle rain.
Solar backpacks are just as durable as your average backpack and many times even more so. While no backpack is likely to be 100% waterproof, solar packs are almost certainly going to be water-resistant.
KEY POINT: Basically questions about solar backpacks usually revolve around how the panels hold up. Solar panels themselves are waterproof, resilient, and designed to get through any weather!
That being said, it is important to take certain precautions. In the same way you wouldn't just jam your laptop into a backpack with no raincoat or protective poncho over the top when it was pouring rain outside, you should take all precautions when using a solar pack.
That has to do with water soaking through backpack material, not whether a pack is solar or not.
As for charging electronics while going through rain, if you have a full cover poncho so no rain is getting through then you should be fine.
Believe it or not, the solar backpacks are still pulling in solar energy during cloudy or rainy weather.
The amount being pulled in is much lower than on a sunny day, but the panels are still working to pull what little energy they can even during inclement weather.
This is a pleasant surprise for many people, as is finding out that portable solar panels can charge via LED lights indoors.
But the solar panels you will find on modern backpacks are designed to go through the wear and tear that they will see through everyday life and use.
Solar Power Made Practical Use
Solar power backpacks are meant to be reliable. Because of the long-time negative news campaigns run against solar power decades ago, there's an unfair (and normally not true) perception of solar as being unreliable.
Which means solar gear needs to work at a higher standard just to get the benefit of the doubt.
So when people ask are solar backpacks reliable the answer needs to be far more enthusiastic than a tepid yes.
This is why many items that are solar powered are built as good or even better than the standard non-solar equivalents.
Your solar backpack will be fine in the rain as long as you take the regular precautions you would with any other backpack.
Quality of Backpack Matters
As with regular backpackers, the quality of the brand of backpack you buy matters when seeing how well your solar backpack will function and hold up.
If you pay for cheap you will get cheap.
The top brand solar backpacks are exceptional. There are even companies that really focus on making solar packs for hikers and backpackers. Obviously these must be able to hold up against inclement weather.
The chances of hiking for three months without getting caught in the rain are going to be next to nothing.
Unless you're doing a desert hike, in which case you wouldn't be worrying about how rain proof or water resistant your pack is.
But if you go with a quality solar backpack, you won't have to worry about that.
We talk about some of our favorite picks for solar backpacks in the "Are solar backpacks reliable?" that we linked to a bit further up.
If you're lazy the picks basically are (with links to up to date Amazon listings):
A good solar backpack will be water resistant and the solar paneling will be just fine no matter how much the water comes down.
How Resilient Solar Panels Are in Storms: A Personal Experience
We survived the horrific Derecho in Cedar Rapids, IA back in 2020. To put the short summary, including those asking "What the heck is a Derecho?" Imagine a category 3 hurricane at full force for two to three hours slamming into the middle of the Midwest of the United States.
A place not exactly known for hurricanes, to put it mildly.
The city was smashed, and large chunks had no power for three weeks. Virtually every house within five blocks had roof damage. At least the ones that still had roofs.
Ours was undamaged. Even the "I don't know how much I trust that structure much less roof" garage (which also has some solar panels on it).
Those solar panels were like Viking shields. Terrifying new weather condition unlike any ever seen in Iowa's history?
Wind, rain, giant tree branches, the panels couldn't care less.
Granted – those are full scale solar panels for homes and buildings versus the smaller portable solar panels put onto backpacks.
But it goes to show that solar panels in all their forms aren't considered about rain, sleet, or snow.
If this seems amazing keep in mind they have already developed solar panels that harvest additional energy from rain drops.
As anyone who has watched solar grow over the past 20 years, the technology is only going to continue to get better and better.
The Verdict: Solar Backpacks Work Well in Rain
The only major difference between solar backpacks and regular packs is that the solar packs give you the option of harnessing solar power in order to charge electronics like smartphones, laptops, or tablets.
These will be just as water resistant as most well built backpacks while helping you to keep important electronics charged even when you're a long way from the nearest charging port.
As long as you stay with the proven dependable solar backpack brands you can rest easy knowing that your solar backpack will function just fine in the rain.
Hi, I'm Shane! I've always felt a passion for two worlds: one in technology and one for the great oudoors away from it. The amazing advances in solar power in my lifetime have really opened up the possibilities, and both my brother and I are deeply passionate about where solar power meets outdoor gear!

TestConfigurations_Update Operation
Applies to QAComplete 14.3, last modified on February 19, 2024
Replaces the test configuration information with that from the specified TestConfiguration object. Uninitialized properties are cleared.
First, you usually call TestConfigurations_Load to get a test configuration by ID, change some of its properties, and then pass the updated object to TestConfigurations_Update.
Requirements
The authenticating user must belong to a user group that has the Update privilege for Test Lbirary.
Parameters
The operation uses the following parameters:
AuthenticationData : AuthenticationData, required
An AuthenticationData object containing the login information and the project ID that contains the test configuration.
TestConfiguration : TestConfiguration, required
A TestConfiguration object that represents the configuration with updated properties.
SendEmailAlert : string, required
Y means send an email alert to the subscribed users after updating the test configuration.
Any other value (for example, N or empty string) means do not send email alerts.
Result
None.
Remarks
The TestConfiguration object has matching Id and Name properties, for example, FolderId and FolderName. To set them, specify the value only for the Id property. The corresponding Name property will be set automatically.
Example
Sample Code
C#
string login = "[email protected]";
string password = "p@ssword";
int projID = 10372;
// Specifying the test configuration to update
int ID = 254;

(Yicai Global) Oct. 10 -- China's Ministry of Land and Resources has reiterated its stance on locations of new solar power plants in the country. Development of the facilities remains strictly prohibited in areas where such projects are banned by national laws and regulations, Chen Guoqing, deputy director of the ministry's Land Use Management Division said at a press briefing today.
Photovoltaic power generation projects must also comply with environmental construction and management requirements, he added. Unused land should be used for new projects rather than farming or arable land.
The law also does not allow permanent solar plants, in any form, to occupy basic farmland.
Regarding the management of farmland and unused land used for photovoltaic power generation projects, no installations apart from the pile foundation are allowed to damage any of a field's plowing layers, he added.
Local energy departments remain responsible for clearing away solar projects that are unable to be connected to the power grid. The land must then be restored to its original form, and those who violate these requirements will not only face punishment but also be added to an energy sector blacklist.


Rules For Part Time Jobs For International Students In the UK
The United Kingdom has been the prime destination for education for a long long time. Many students dream of living and studying in London. However, the cost of living and studying here can get a little expensive, when compared to other countries. As a result, a lot of students decide to become employed, in order to have additional income during their stay here. According to employment law UK, students are allowed to work with certain restrictions. Below we have summarised some of the rules of working as an international student in the UK.
Jobs For International Students In the UK
The work laws for international students are ever changing, here we have summarised the latest rules that must be followed regarding students working hours uk:
 1. Students allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours:
 1. Full-time students, studying at a degree level or above.
 2. Students attending Short-Term studies abroad programme in the UK at an overseas Higher Education Institution.
 2. Students allowed to work a maximum of 10 hours:
 1. Full-time students, studying below degree level.
 2. Any course where the student is a Tier 4 (Child) Student, aged over 16 years old.
The above mentioned students can undertake full-time work during vacation periods.
 1. Students not allowed to work in the UK:
 1. Part time students, studying at post-degree level or above.
 2. Students studying at any level in a publically funded further education college.
 3. Students studying at any level as a private provider

In this figure above showing white dresses one can see the different styles, with added accessories and patterns. Using the color 5 element theory these dresses can be described as:
- Metal & Wood Pattern
- Red Belt – Fire
One can begin to be aware of the elements in the colors and shapes they are wearing and learning what accessories to use and when by becoming familiar with the qualities of the 5 elements and their cycles of harmony and disharmony.
One can also learn their primary nurturing element and begin to explore applying these principles to their wardrobe to dress for harmony and success. Using Chinese Cosmology find your Kua Number. This will give you your element and corresponding color palette. If at first you are not drawn to your elements color range explore what elements support your primary nurturing element. For example in the 5 element theory wood supports fire. If the fire range is too strong a range for you, consider the wood palette as wood supports fire!
Learning your element, one can then begin to explore the 5 element cycle of harmony or disharmony to accessorize their outfit to express the experience they are wearing. An example is in the first figure in frame one of the white dress that is in a metal color, water shape and accessorized with a red belt which reflects fire. In 5 element theory metal creates water so the style and color are in harmony yet the contrasting belt is fire which is considered to melt metal. The belt is a nice contrast for too much metal and water!

CARA : a web-based environment for child protection workers
CARA (Child Abuse Risk Assessment) is a web-based learning environment which may be used by child protection investigators as well as caseworkers and followup workers, to think about the complexity of the factors related to the immediate safety and future risk of children. This is an American collaborative project between the Children & Family Research Center, the School of Social Work at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services.
CARA is built around cases, scenes, factors and commentaries. Each of the cases has the name of the child who was the focus of that particular case investigation. Each case is divided into a number of scenes (written in narrative form), usually on the basis of the chronological development of the case during investigation. All of the scenes in each case have been examined in light of a set of global assessment factors. Each factor has a commentary drawn from the research literature that discusses the relevance of the factor to assessment in general.
CARA may be used by visitors, who are free to read the materials, or registered users, who may contribute comments to the learning environment. Registration is free. The materials may be worked through in a sequential or a non-sequential mode.

How bent spaghetti break
Bent dry spaghetti do not break in half but instead in three or more pieces. With the aim to explain this surprising phenomenon, we studied a related problem, namely the dynamics of an elastic rod that is bent quasi-statically and then suddenly set free. Counter-intuitively, we find that the mere release of the rod induces a stress increase. The multiple breaking of bent rods, like dry spaghetti pasta, can then be understood as a cascade of releases (loss of cohesion upon breakings) followed by stress increases leading to new cracks.

Yes, there are underground canals in New Orleans. The city's canal system is made up of a network of underground and above-ground channels that were built in the 19th century to help control flooding and to transport goods.
The most well-known of these underground canals is the New Basin Canal. It was built in the 1830s to connect the city with Lake Pontchartrain, and it was used to transport goods and people to and from the city. The canal is now mostly filled in, but a portion of it still exists underground and it's visible in some places such as the City Park.
Another underground canal is the Carondelet Canal, it was built in the 1820s to connect the city with the Mississippi River. The canal was used to transport goods and people, but it was also used to drain swampy land and to control flooding. The canal is mostly filled in, but a section of it still exists underground and can be seen near the intersection of Canal Street and Elk Place.
In summary, there are underground canals in New Orleans, the most well-known is the New Basin Canal and the Carondelet Canal, both were built in the 19th century to help control flooding and to transport goods, they're mostly filled in but some portions of them still exist underground and can be seen in some places in the city.

William Charles Ayers (; born December 26, 1944) is a former leader of the Weather Underground and American elementary education theorist. During the 1960s, Ayers participated in the counterculture movement that opposed US involvement in the Vietnam War. He is known for his 1960s radical activism and his later work in education reform, curriculum and instruction.
In 1969, Ayers co-founded the Weather Underground, a self-described Communist revolutionary group that sought to overthrow imperialism. The Weather Underground conducted a campaign of bombing public buildings (including police stations, the United States Capitol, and the Pentagon) during the 1960s and 1970s in response to U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War.
Ayers is a retired professor in the College of Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, formerly holding the titles of Distinguished Professor of Education and Senior University Scholar. During the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign, a controversy arose over his contacts with then-candidate Barack Obama. He is married to Bernardine Dohrn, who was also a leader in the Weather Underground.

I am looking for methods that take into account rotation as well as translation for continuous collision detection.
My broad phase algorithm uses swept maximal bounding spheres returning a start time when the objects will be within their maximum radius.
I have two ideas how to handle the next phase of collision detection:
1 ignore rotation:
A simplified collision I am considering is to ignore rotation from the beginning of the narrow phase and use a GJK representation to raycast the relative motion of the objects to the origin. This should give an intersection time by a raycast against a convex hull. This method will result in colliding objects to stop rotating for a portion of the time step, and can miss collision due to rotation over the timestep.
2 bisection search:
Doing a bisection search of instantaneous GJK tests at increasingly smaller intervals, presumably down to a fixed size. If a collision is detected then only earlier points in the bisection need be considered (reducing the search space), but to rule out collision completely the full space needs to be searched. This seems fairly expensive and can still miss collisions where the periodicity of motion is between the test points.
I have found some indication that dual numbers or dual quaternions + screw theory may have some application but it seems like an advanced topic and so far the only game-related application I have found is in mesh deformation, not collision detection. Screw theory seems promising, but I'm not sure it applies to situations where the axis of rotation is not the same as the axis of translation, or if that is just a sub-set of certain screw motions.

text: This paper addresses 3-D reconstruction of a marine floating platform using an unmanned surface vessel (USV). Lidar and sonar sensors equipped on the USV are used to gather volumetric point cloud data of the floating platform structure both above and below the waterline. These measurements are collected in the vehicle-fixed frame, and thus, an accurate estimation of the vehicle 's pose (i.e., position and attitude) is essential for satisfactory 3-D reconstruction. Because global positioning system signals are severely deteriorated or unavailable around large steel structures, relative navigation with respect to the planar surfaces of their hull structures is performed in the framework of simultaneous localization and mapping. To verify and demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach, a field experiment around a full-scale semisubmersible platform was conducted using a custom-designed USV.

In its continuing effort to expand financial access to under-served segments of the Women's Market, the Global Banking Alliance for Women (GBA) is partnering with Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC) to support knowledge creation and peer learning activities.
GBA members offer women the holistic value proposition that they need to succeed: access to finance, information, education, networks and recognition for their achievements. With this partnership, the GBA aims to take its commercial approach to the Women's Market to more financial services providers across the world through research, knowledge products and peer learning activities in partnership with IDRC's wide network of stakeholders.
"GBA research shows that, when served well, women represent a high-potential growth opportunity for banks, with strong customer, savings and product usage growth rates, high loyalty rates, and lower risk," GBA Chief Executive Inez Murray said. "This partnership with IDRC will be key in helping the GBA to deepen our know-how and help more and more financial services providers implement robust strategies for the Women's Market, thereby narrowing the financial inclusion gender gap."
IDRC supports research on financial inclusion as a tool for economic empowerment. Focusing on the needs of women and youth, IDRC invests in research that aims to: 1) foster and scale up access to and use of financial services among marginalized groups, including financial literacy; 2) inform enabling policy frameworks and remove the constraints that impede access for these groups; and 3) help financial service providers develop innovative products and services that better reflect the needs of women and youth.
"IDRC is delighted to join GBA to support research and the use of new knowledge to contribute toward Sustainable Development Goal 5. Gender inclusive financial services and products are a relevant tool to foster equitable economic empowerment and sustainable development," said IDRC's Regional Director Federico Burone.
In line with this work, the strategic objectives of the partnership include building financial services providers' capacity to deliver the products and services women need, expanding and advocating for the business case for serving women across multiple stakeholders, and sharing lessons learned and best practices across the GBA network and outside it through GBA peer learning events.
The GBA is also delighted to welcome IDRC as a sponsor of its Annual Summit, which will be held in London November 14-16. For more information about IDRC and its financial inclusion efforts, visit the IDRC website.

Summary: A device for triggering sound effects heard during the operation of an external combustion locomotive.
Front of a steam locomotive. Note the pipes for delivering live steam and exhaust.
Chuff Cam
A Chuff Cam is a cam used with a sound decoder to control the beat of a steam locomotive.
The "beat" is the sound heard as the pistons move, exhausting steam into the blast pipe. The blast pipe is a device positioned below the stack in the smokebox, whose purpose is to provide draft for the fire. Steam exhausted through the stack via the blast pipe provides the draft. Nozzles are used to direct the steam up the stack, propelling combustion gases out of the smokebox in the process.
The chuff cam is used with a wiper to complete an electrical circuit. Sound decoders may be fitted with a wire for this purpose. The cam is installed on an axle, and the wiper is positioned to make or break the circuit. Other methods may use a small disk mounted on the axle against the back of one driver.
It is similar in concept to the ignition systems used in automobiles prior to the advent of electronic ignition. The high voltage was created by opening a switch, (the points) which was actuated by a small cam driven by the camshaft. This timed the spark correctly. The number of lobes on the cam depends on the number of cylinders, such as 4, 6 or 8.
See here for more information on mechanically timed ignition systems. In this application, poor adjustment may result in engine pinging, poor performance, or an engine that will not run (or maybe even backfire during starting.) None of these problems appear in DCC.
The purpose of a chuff cam is to synchronize the beat (or chuffs) with the rotation of the wheels. Most sound decoders have an autochuff feature, which controls the beat using a combination of things, such as motor voltage, back EMF, and throttle settings/changes. Problem is, it is guessing as to the rate the valves would be operating, and as a result, it may not be realistic.
A steam locomotive has 4 beats per wheel revolution. The cam will lock the rate to the revolution of the wheel. Thus, the beat is directly related to the speed of the locomotive. Which means the sound is more realistic than that achieved by using autochuff.
The picture shows a chuff cam (the brass object) mounted on an axle. As this is an articulated locomotive, it has two cams, with four lobes, one for each engine. The cam is electrically live, and the wiper touches one of the four lobes for each revolution, connecting the voltage to the decoder. The decoder interprets that to mean "chuff". A plate is removed on the rear engine, showing the axles, bearings, gearbox, and of course, the cam on the third axle.
Articulated engines have another issue: the two engines will move in and out of sync due to slippage. Soundtraxx has a "slip" feature included in the Tsunami decoder when in "auto exhaust" mode. With cams, that will not happen. Since both engines are driven off the same driveshaft, they cannot operate at different speeds.
The Tsunami will revert to "auto exhaust" when operated in analog mode, as it needs the digital signal found on DCC systems to function.
A chuff cam will add realism to your external combustion motive power.
Installing a Chuff Cam
This will use a Grizzly Mountain Engineering cam as an example.
The first step is to remove the belly pan to gain access to the axles.
Mark one bearing so you can reinstall it properly. (Since the wheels are quartered, they must go back exactly the same way.)
In this example, the crank pins are removed using a special socket driver included with the locomotive. Gently remove the crank pins. Forcing things can damage the tool, the screw head, or both. ONLY REMOVE THE WHEELSET YOU PLAN TO INSTALL A CAM ON! Leave as much of the reciprocating assembly in place as possible. Less things to lose, or misalign later.
Lift the wheelset out. Pay attention, as many will have sprung drivers and you don't want to lose a spring.
Test Fit
In this case the cam slid onto the axle without a lot of effort. Carefully align and install the driver set and check for any interference. Solve those problems before proceeding.
In this example a part of the frame will interfere with the cam. This will not do, so the solution is to mount an end mill in a Dremel tool, and remove some material. The idea is to make clearances for the cam without sacrificing the threaded hole used to fasten the belly pan at this point.
Installation
Follow the manufacturer's instructions. GME recommends preparing the surface with a fine sandpaper, the epoxy the cam in place and set aside to dry. After the epoxy has cured, fit the spacer into the cam, and when it fits correctly, epoxy it into place. After curing, trim any excess epoxy off. In this example, conductive epoxy will be employed, and the axle polished with a brass wire brush mounted in a Dremel tool. The epoxy contains silver and is used in the electronics industry in place of soldering. Don't bother to fit the plastic spacer until later.
The Soundtraxx Chuff Cam:
The connection to the axle is made with conductive paint, such as that used for repairing circuit boards. They recommend buying a cam designed for soldering if you wish to take that route. Conductive paint, often called "Nickel Print", can be used to complete the circuit.

Which of the following is more grammatically correct?
a. John's performance on the test shocked the teacher.
b. John's performance in the test shocked the teacher.
Performance really depends on the object: You perform IN a play but you perform ON a stage so:
So really your question comes down to: do you perform on a test? Do you perform in a test? I would lead towards "on" because of other usage:
Then again, if we are really talking about an implied "performance in taking" the test, suddenly this could be correct:
However I would also go ahead and call both of them "awkward". I would avoid entirely and use
Or best of all, use K.I.S.S. and avoid the problem altogether:
I think if it is a written test, we most often say performance on the test (maybe because we "put our ideas down on paper"), but if it is measuring abilities in an environment, e.g. response times, or skill comparisons (before and after, etc) we use performance in the test.

Contact Force and Pressure between Tire and Road Using Dual Tires under Different Loads and Inflation Pressures 2008-01-2685
Heavy vehicles commonly use dual tires on their load and traction axles. As the only vehicle component involved in force transmission to the road, the tire is an important element in the road damage process. In this context, two factors involved are the tire's supported load and inflation pressure. Traditional practical assumptions are that each of the tires in dual arrangement supports the same load, and that the contact patch pressure is very similar to the tire's inflation pressure. To provide data about the load distribution and contact pressure in the tire's contact patch, a lab experimental study was carried out. For that, a lab device was used to determine the static load and pressure in the contact patch, using three different sets of heavy duty radial tires subjected to several combinations of supported load and inflation pressure. Results showed that contact force and pressure are uneven in the contact patch, and frequently contact pressure is lower than inflation pressure for the type of tires tested.
