Ses Taules Gateway
The main entrance to the walled enclosure of Ibiza
It is the main entrance to the walled enclosure of the old town of Ibiza. It is situated between the bastions of Sant Joan and Santa Llúcia, and was built between 1584 and 1585. In 1888, the moat in front of the doorway was crossed by slats of wood, which were later replaced by a drawbridge and, in the early 20th century, by a permanent bridge. The gateway is crowned by the imperial coat of arms and crown. On both sides of the gateway there are replicas of the original statues, which are kept in the Archaeological Museum.

Eco-Friendly Project with Cay-Shred begins at Beacon Farms
In December 2020, Beacon Farms received the first load of shredded paper from Cay-Shred Mobile Data Destruction. The load delivered weighed roughly 6,000 lbs - that is 6,000 lbs. less waste dumped at the George Town landfill!
Beacon farms will incorporate this shredded paper with our other compost inputs, such as green waste from landscapers, brown waste in the form of wood chips and create a nutrient rich compost product.
Cay-Shred will be delivering similarly sized load each week. This situation benefits everyone involved as we are reducing the volume of waste going to the dump by recycling a waste product and turning it into a valuable growing medium that will in turn make Beacon Farms' soil more productive.


Whipped Cream Structure
The structure of whipped cream is very similar to the fat and air structure that exists in ice cream. Cream is an emulsion with a fat content of 35-40%. When you whip a bowl of heavy cream, the agitation and the air bubbles that are added cause the fat globules to begin to partially coalesce in chains and clusters and adsorb to and spread around the air bubbles.
Diagram of whipped cream structureAs the fat partially coalesces, it causes one fat-stabilized air bubble to be linked to the next, and so on. The whipped cream soon starts to become stiff and dry appearing and takes on a smooth texture. This results from the formation of this partially coalesced fat structure stabilizing the air bubbles. The water, lactose and proteins are trapped in the spaces around the fat-stabilized air bubbles. The crystalline fat content is essential (hence whipping of cream is very temperature dependent) so that the fat globules partially coalesce into a 3-dimensional structure rather than fully coalesce into larger and larger globules that are not capable of structure-building. This is caused by the crystals within the globules that cause them to stick together into chains and clusters, but still retain the individual identity of the globules. Please see a further description of this process for details. If whipped cream is whipped too far, the fat will begin to churn and butter particles will form.
Partially-crystalline Fat Globule, Partially-coalesced
Below are scanning electron micrographs image of whipped cream. If you compare the schematics above with the "real thing" below, you should be able to fully understand whipped cream structure.

SYMBOLISM OF THE GRAIN-EAR IN VIACHESLAV IVANOV'S WORKS
Languages of publication
This paper suggests a symbolic and contextual symbol of grain, present in the works of Viacheslav Ivanov. The subject of the authoress analysis and its starting point is constituted by his three poems:- the first one stating with the words 'Yazykov pravdu, khristtiane, / My chtim (...)', from the poetic cycle entitled 'Rimskii dnevnik 1944 goda', the two remaining ones are: 'Sozrel na nive kolos (...)' and 'Tikhaya zhatva' (4th volume of 'Sobranie sochinenii'). On the basis of these works she traced the functioning of this symbol in Ivanov's poetic output, as well as in his theoretical and philosophical reflections. She also revealed the most important aspects of the motif of grain, namely: grain as a symbol of resurrection and life after death (connection with the ancient mystery cults) and grain in the eschatological meaning, understood as toll - the fruit of sowing.

text: The influence of angle matching in rotor–stator interference (RSI) zone on natural circulation resistance (NCR) of circulating pump in natural circulation condition is illustrated by numerical method, and the analysis and optimization method of natural circulation based on loss coefficient curve are established through experiments. The mechanism and analysis formula of runaway speed are extracted, and the distribution diagram of Euler head density function (EHDF) is obtained to carry out image processing and analysis of secondary flow. Then, the optimal design interval of setting angle of impeller outlet under low flow resistance is acquired. As for the natural circulation loss of static parts, the optimal design interval of guide vane inlet angle and outlet angle with low flow resistance is obtained by analyzing the EHDF distribution diagram of the whole flow parts, which accounts for the position and reason of resistance. In this paper, the mechanism between runaway speed and loss coefficient curve is revealed and the resistance is optimized through the design and analysis of the RSI region, which provides theoretical methods for the analysis of the impeller performance of axial-flow circulating pump. Furthermore, it is a reference for the optimization design of natural circulation system.

Examples of moving handles
Moving handles for different types of graphics:
Callout 1 An image "from file."
Callout 2 The drawing canvas with a drawing on it.
As with resizing, the same basic principle applies to moving most types of graphics: You select the image, and then drag it into position.
Unlike resizing, there are some minor variations, depending on the type of graphic:
 - For images on the drawing canvas, you can move both the drawing canvas and the image. Position the pointer over the image or over the border of the drawing canvas (if the drawing canvas isn't visible, click the image and it will appear). When the four-headed arrow Pointer image appears, you can drag the image or the drawing canvas.
 - For images not on the drawing canvas, the four-headed arrow does not appear. However, as soon as you begin to drag the image, a small box Pointer and move box appears next to the pointer and a special insertion point appears on the same line of text as the pointer to help guide your positioning. This is especially helpful if you're positioning an image near or inside text, as you'll see in the following section.
 - For diagrams (including organization charts), you need to select the diagram, and then position the pointer over the its border. When the four-headed arrow Pointer image appears, you can drag the diagram.

The relationship between self -report and behavioral observation indices of multicultural counseling competence
Changing demographics in the United States have stirred an increase in attention to multicultural counseling issues. Counseling professionals have questioned whether current training programs adequately prepare counseling students to work with individuals from a culturally diverse client population. Specific competencies have been identified and enumerated. The need for training has been emphasized by professionals and professional organizations. The availability of training in existing counseling psychology programs and internships has been examined. As a result, the measurement and evaluation of multicultural counseling competencies has become increasingly important to counseling psychologists and other professionals who offer counseling services to culturally diverse clients. ^ In recent years 1 supervisor evaluation and 3 self-report instruments have been developed to measure dimensions of the multicultural counseling construct. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between behavioral evaluation and self-report in the measurement of this construct. The relationship between self-report and behavioral evaluation was examined across differences in training level. The existence of a multicultural counseling competence construct, distinct from general counseling competence, as observed and distinguished by expert judges, was also examined. ^ Participants for this study were master's level counseling students and doctoral level students in counseling psychology programs from 3 northeastern universities. The Multicultural Counseling Knowledge and Awareness Scale (MCKAS) was used as a self-report measure of multicultural counseling competency and the Cross Cultural Counseling Inventory-R (CCCI-R) was used as an objective behavioral measure. The Counselor Rating Form-Short Version (CRF-S) was used as a measure of general counseling competence. Two multicultural counseling experts rated participants' counseling response to an interactive video of a client presenting cultural/racial issues during a counseling session. Participants viewed and responded to a video of an African American or a White Confederate client. Both clients presented an identical script. The experts used their ratings to complete a CCCI-R and a CRF-S for each participant. Correlations between the MCKAS subscale scores, the CCCI-R total score, and the CRF-S total score were used to test hypotheses. ^ Results were examined, limitations enumerated, and implications to the field of counseling psychology and for future research were discussed. ^

Lego could be considered as the best friend for most children and an amazing hobby for many adults. Lego Company also understood this point and would release Lego sets for both groups of Lego fans. For kids, Lego set would be relatively simple and for adult Lego enthusiasts, it would release complicated Lego sets.
Although most of these Lego sets would appear marvelous during the day time, during the night time, they would appear similar to a lifeless plastic model. For this reason, Lego enthusiasts would install LED light kit in their Lego set. Addition of light kit in the Lego set would blow a new life into the model. It would allow the user to enjoy the night view of their Lego set.
What do you mean by Lego lights?
For decorating the Lego set, several Lego enthusiasts would install the light in their Lego set. These lighting set are custom built and would differ from one Lego model to another. These lighting kits are specially designed to be compatible with the specific Lego model. For example, lightings from the star-wars set light kit would never match with the Lego set of Architecture Series model.
These lighting kits would mainly contain LED lights, which would be small in size, but powerful enough to illuminate the whole Lego structure. Its small size allows the user to place them underneath the Lego bricks. Wires included in the set are thin enough so that they could be placed between the Lego bricks. This means that the wires and lights would remain hidden behind the Lego bricks and would not impact the outer appearance of the set.
What are the features of Lego lighting kits?
Installing a light kit for Lego set would not only make the set appear beautiful but it would bring out the realistic features of the set. These lights could effectively add dynamics and realism into the Lego set. Here are some of the features that every lighting kit would have in them.
The installation process of the lighting kit is extremely easy and user-friendly. The user would just have to follow the instruction manual completing the installation of the lighting kit. The provided instruction manual would also have step by step guide for customizing lighting kits for the models.
Most of the LED light kit allows the user to link up several kinds of lighting kits through a single power supply. This feature would be useful for those people who like to display several Lego at the same time. The lighting kit would make the collection of the several look marvelous.
For activating the kit the user would not require any kind of extra knowledge. The user would just have to plug into the power source to activate the lighting kit. The kit would also include battery packs, expansion boards, connecting cables, and USB power cables.
Therefore, we could conclude that adding lighting kit would increase the beauty of your Lego kit. Therefore, next time if you are buying any Lego set make sure to buy its lighting kit to enjoy its night view.

Dog with Oronasal Fistula Repair
An oronasal fistula is an opening between the oral and nasal cavities that most commonly results from the extraction of a diseased upper canine tooth. The canine teeth are the long sharp teeth found at the anterior corners of the mouth on either side of the front incisor teeth. In this image you can see that the dental probe demonstrates a deep pocket of infection around the base of this canine tooth. It needs to be extracted. In some dogs with infected canine teeth the infection is so bad that it destroys the bone at the base of the tooth and once the tooth is extracted it leaves a hole or fistula between the oral and nasal cavities (an oronasal fistula). To prevent infection this needs to be covered up with a gingival flap. (see dental case August 2008)
Sometimes the gingival flap does not 'take' properly leaving a small oronasal fistula even after healing is completed as is seen in this image. In this case a new flap is required. Why is this important? -so that food material does not get trapped in this opening that would lead to both a local gum infection and a nasal infection leading to a runny nose.
In image 1, Dr. Fisher is using a scalpel blade to freshen the edges around the fistula and to create a new flap. Next a Freer elevator is used to raise the flap away from underlying bone (image 2).
Next, the fistula space is filled with Consil®, a synthetic bone graft particulate that encourages new bone formation.
Consil application is followed by suturing of the gum (gingival) flap to the surrounding gum tissue in order to cover the fistula.
The finished product! All sutures have been placed and the oronasal fistula is covered. This flap of gum tissue adhered well this time and healing was complete, thus preventing a possible source of chronic infection in the mouth and nasal passage.


How To Remove A Nail From A Tire
How To Remove A Nail From A Tire
If you have a flat tire, there's a good chance that one of your nails has gotten caught in the tire. Here's how to remove a nail from a tire:
1. Locate the nail. It's likely that the nail is lodged in the tread or the rubber around the circumference of the tire.
2. Use a tire iron to hit the nail hard with the blunt end of the iron. This will break the nail off the end of the tire.
3. Use a wrench to turn the tire iron around the circumference of the nail. This will loosen the nail and it can be easily removed.
How to Fix Nail in Tire – Do It Yourself for $5 Tire Plug Kit
Remove a nail from a tire
If you find a nail in your tire, the first thing you should do is remove it as quickly as possible to avoid puncturing the tire. If you can't get the nail out yourself, you'll need to get a tool to remove it.
There are a few different ways to remove a nail from a tire. You can use a standard tire iron, which will create a hole in the tire. Or you can use a pneumatic hammer to break the nail off. If neither of these methods work, you'll need to get a special nail removal tool.
See also How To Remove Nailboo Dip Nails
There are a few different types of nail removal tools. The most common is a claw hammer. This tool has a pointed end that grabs the nail and a hammer head on the other end that breaks the nail off. You can also get a chisel type tool, which has a sharp, wedge-shaped head. This tool is used to break the nail off at the base.
Once you have the tool that you need, you'll need to position it so that the pointed end is touching the nail and the hammer head is facing the tire. Then, hit the nail with the hammer head, breaking the nail off.
The tools you will need
 - A flat head screwdriver
 - A tire iron
 - A bottle of acetone or nail polish remover
 - A grater
 - A safety pin
 - A piece of wood
 - A towel
 1. Start by unscrewing the bead of the tire iron. This is the round, metal part at the end of the iron that has a handle.
 2. Pry off the nail with the screwdriver.
 3. Repeat until all the nails are removed.
 4. Pour acetone or nail polish remover into the tire iron and heat it up until it is hot.
 5. Place the grater over the nail and grind it off.
 6. Use the safety pin to hold the nail while you remove the rest of the nail with the screwdriver.
 7. Break off the end of the nail and discard it.
 8. Replace the bead on the tire iron and tighten it.
Step one
Get a nail remover that is made specifically for tires. There are many on the market, so find the one that is both easy to use and safe for your nails.
Step two
Put on your safety goggles and gloves. This is important because you don't want any of the chemicals on your skin to get into your eyes.
Step three
Secure the nail remover to the tire using the included straps.
Step four
Insert the nail remover into the nail.
Step five
Grip the remover with your other hand and pull out the nail. Be sure to use steady, even pressure to avoid puncturing the tire.
Step two
Carefully remove the nail with a pair of pliers. Make sure to grip the nail tightly so that it does not slip out. Apply pressure to the nail with the pliers in a circular motion until the nail pops out.
Step three
If the nail refuses to come out with a standard pair of pliers, you may need to use a pneumatic tool. Put the end of the pliers over the protruding nail and inflate the tool with air until it's about the size of the nail. Push down on the pliers, and the nail should pop out.
Finishing up
So there you have it, a detailed guide on how to remove a nail from a tire. Whether you're a professional mechanic or a DIY enthusiast, this guide will help you get the job done quickly and efficiently.
Remember, take care when removing nails from tires, as they can be sharp and damaging if not done correctly. If you do happen to nick the tire or puncture it in any way, be sure to get it fixed as soon as possible.
Conclusion
The best way to remove a nail from a tire is to use a tire iron. You can also use a nail puller, but be careful not to puncture the tire.

Animal Crusaders helping homeless animals
Whether it's decorating bed covers for the cats, or helping train the dogs with treats, a group of elementary school students from Lyles-Crouch Traditional Academy in Alexandria is dedicated to improving the lives of homeless animals.
The students call themselves the Animal Crusaders and they're regular volunteers at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.
"I'm helping them find homes and making them better habitats where they are right now," says Animal Crusader Linnea Bow.
Sometimes, the Animal Crusaders make toys for cats. They even read to the animals.
The shelter says the animals directly benefit from this interaction with the children.
"It's good to introduce animals and children together because animals get used to having children around and become more adoptable to families," says Youth Volunteer Coordinator Lindsay Halgerson.
And the students are learning the rewards of giving back a lesson they're apparently sharing with their friends.
"They love the animals and are excited to come and want to help and telling their friends about animal crusaders and that's the best thing," says teacher Anne Marie Harris-White.

With that in mind, Ford Driving Skills for Life (DFSL) and Michigan State University (MSU) have teamed up to produce a new video game that is designed to capture young hearts and minds to help keep them safe behind the wheel.
"Research has found driving simulation can effectively introduce new drivers to potentially life-saving skills," says Jim Graham, manager, Ford Driving Skills for Life. "Tens of thousands of new drivers have attended our driving clinics, but this new game will provide millions of new drivers the opportunity to test and develop their skills online and on their schedule."
The online video game is patterned after DSFL's award-winning driving exercises – a key element of the program. The game was developed by MSU's Games for Entertainment and Learning Lab. Using the latest gaming technology, the game simulates the hands-on driving exercises taught in traditional Ford DSFL driving clinics. The new game can be accessed on the Ford Driving Skills for Life website.
"Many drivers in training have been playing video games for years. Through the game, we are able to leverage the engagement and fun of gaming technology and use it to create an educational experience that is appealing to these new drivers," states Brian Winn, Director of the Games for Entertainment and Learning Lab at Michigan State University. "Given the safety of the game environment, we are able to put players in situations that simulate hands-on training, thereby avoiding making potentially deadly mistakes in the real-world."
More than 3,000 teens ages 15-19 are killed each year on American roads, making traffic fatalities the leading cause of death of American teens, according to government statistics. As the most comprehensive driving skills program in the U.S., Ford DSFL is designed to make a difference by reducing these preventable tragedies. Now in its ninth year, Ford DSFL is a partnership between Ford Motor Company Fund and the Governors Highway Safety Association. The program includes free professional driver instruction, a Web-based curriculum, free educational materials, state grants and statewide education partnerships.
Ford DSFL, in partnership with AAA Michigan, Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning and Henry Ford Hospital-West Bloomfield, also is launched "Strive for a Safer Drive" – a Michigan statewide effort that includes peer-to-peer safe driving campaigns, use of simulators in schools and professional hands-on driving clinics. The program will reach more than 30 high schools during the six-month period and is patterned after a similar DSFL partnership that helped reduce teen traffic fatalities by 45 percent in Illinois.

A variation of the pointed cross, the heraldic
dagger is a common sign
in printed texts.
In typography the sign, along with and, is used as a sign for note, i.e. an amendment to the main text.
In botany the dagger means poisonous, in chess, check! In timetables it is sometimes used for Sunday or holiday. In genealogy it is used for deceased or dead. In dictionaries it can indicate an obsolete word, and again in botany it may mean a once cultivated but now wild growing plant.
This sign is the second in series of reference marks and as such called obelisk or obelus. See reference marks in the word index for the other signs.
The dagger is also sometimes used preceding a death date, that is meaning dead or died.

Nội dung Text: Creating and Using a DataView Object
 1. Creating and Using a DataView Object In this section, you'll learn how to filter and sort rows with a DataView object. You create a DataView object using one of the following constructors: DataView() DataView(DataTable myDataTable) DataView(DataTable myDataTable, string filterExpression, string sortExpression, DataViewRowState rowState) where • myDataTable specifies the DataTable that your DataView is associated with. Your DataView will read the rows from this DataTable. The Table property of your DataView is set to myDataTable. • filterExpression specifies a string containing the expression you want to filter the rows by. The RowFilter property of your DataView is set to filterExpression. • sortExpression specifies a string containing the expression you want to sort the rows by. The Sort property of your DataView is set to sortExpression. • rowState specifies an additional filter to apply to the rows; rowState filters by the DataRowView-State of the DataViewRow objects in your DataView. The RowStateFilter of your DataView is set to rowState. Before you create a DataView, you first need a DataTable from which to read rows. The following example creates and populates a DataTable named customersDT that contains rows from the Customers table: SqlCommand mySqlCommand = mySqlConnection.CreateCommand(); mySqlCommand.CommandText = "SELECT CustomerID, CompanyName, Country " + "FROM Customers"; SqlDataAdapter mySqlDataAdapter = new SqlDataAdapter(); mySqlDataAdapter.SelectCommand = mySqlCommand; DataSet myDataSet = new DataSet(); mySqlConnection.Open(); mySqlDataAdapter.Fill(myDataSet, "Customers"); mySqlConnection.Close(); DataTable customersDT = myDataSet.Tables["Customers"]; Let's say you want to filter the rows in CustomersDT to view just the customers in the UK. Your filter string expression would be
 2. string filterExpression = "Country = 'UK'"; Note Notice that UK is placed within single quotes. This is because UK is a string literal. Also, let's say you want to sort those rows by ascending CustomerID column values and descending CompanyName column values. Therefore, your sort expression would be string sortExpression = "CustomerID ASC, CompanyName DESC"; Note ASC sorts in ascending order. DESC sorts in descending order. Finally, let's say you wanted to view only the original rows in the DataView; you therefore set your row state filter to DataViewRowState.OriginalRows: DataViewRowState rowStateFilter = DataViewRowState.OriginalRows; Note The default is DataViewRowState.CurrentRows, which includes rows in your DataView for which the DataViewRowState is Unchanged, Added, and ModifiedCurrent. The following example creates a DataView object named customersDV and passes customersDT, filterExpression, sortExpression, and rowStateFilter to the DataView constructor: DataView customersDV = new DataView( customersDT, filterExpression, sortExpression, rowStateFilter ); You can also create a DataView and set the Table, RowFilter, Sort, and RowStateFilter properties individually. For example: DataView customersDV = new DataView(); customersDV.Table = customersDT; customersDV.RowFilter = filterExpression; customersDV.Sort = sortExpression; customersDV.RowStateFilter = rowStateFilter; A DataView stores rows as DataRowView objects, and the rows are read from the DataRow objects stored in the underlying DataTable. The following example uses a foreach loop to display the DataRowView objects in the customersDV DataView:
 3. foreach (DataRowView myDataRowView in customersDV) { for (int count = 0; count < customersDV.Table.Columns.Count; count++) { Console.WriteLine(myDataRowView[count]); } Console.WriteLine(""); } Note that myDataRowView[count] returns the value of the column at the numeric position specified by count. For example, myDataRowView[0] returns the value of the CustomerID column. You'll learn more about the DataRowView class later in the section "The DataRowView Class." Listing 13.1 shows a program that uses the previous code examples. Listing 13.1: USINGDATAVIEW.CS /* UsingDataView.cs illustrates the use of a DataView object to filter and sort rows */ using System; using System.Data; using System.Data.SqlClient; class UsingDataView { public static void Main() { SqlConnection mySqlConnection = new SqlConnection( "server=localhost;database=Northwind;uid=sa;pwd=sa" ); SqlCommand mySqlCommand = mySqlConnection.CreateCommand(); mySqlCommand.CommandText = "SELECT CustomerID, CompanyName, Country " + "FROM Customers"; SqlDataAdapter mySqlDataAdapter = new SqlDataAdapter(); mySqlDataAdapter.SelectCommand = mySqlCommand; DataSet myDataSet = new DataSet(); mySqlConnection.Open(); mySqlDataAdapter.Fill(myDataSet, "Customers");
 4. mySqlConnection.Close(); DataTable customersDT = myDataSet.Tables["Customers"]; // set up the filter and sort expressions string filterExpression = "Country = 'UK'"; string sortExpression = "CustomerID ASC, CompanyName DESC"; DataViewRowState rowStateFilter = DataViewRowState.OriginalRows; // create a DataView object named customersDV DataView customersDV = new DataView(); customersDV.Table = customersDT; customersDV.RowFilter = filterExpression; customersDV.Sort = sortExpression; customersDV.RowStateFilter = rowStateFilter; // display the rows in the customersDV DataView object foreach (DataRowView myDataRowView in customersDV) { for (int count = 0; count < customersDV.Table.Columns.Count; count++) { Console.WriteLine(myDataRowView[count]); } Console.WriteLine(""); } } } Notice that the rows in customersDV are filtered to those for which the Country is UK, and the resulting rows are then sorted by CustomerID. The output from this program is as follows: AROUT Around the Horn UK BSBEV B's Beverages UK CONSH Consolidated Holdings UK

text: The dynamics of riparian vegetation in a reach of the Lijiang River, China, are investigated. A new process-based model is developed based on cellular automata, which simulates the key processes in the life cycle of the ten most occurring plant species: germination, normal growth, response to floods and droughts, destruction by high velocities, consumption of resources, colonization and competition. The parameterization of these processes is based on controlled experiments on plants sampled in the study area. A traditional statistical model is also developed, which relates the vegetation state to four flow-related variables. Both models are assessed based on data from 12 field surveys in the period from 2009 to 2011, during the dry season, the wet season and at the end of the growing season. Both models predict satisfactorily the spatial distribution of the vegetation cover at the end of the growing season. Although the statistical model is by definition limited to the steady state conditions at the end of the growing season, the process-based model also satisfactorily simulates the temporal dynamics of the vegetation during the dry season and the wet season. Contrary to the statistical model, the process-based model also satisfactorily simulates the vegetation cover outside the area used for the model parameterization. Thus, process-based models are more robust under flow regimes with spatial heterogeneity and important temporal variations. Field observations and process-based model predictions indicate that the regime of dry season and wet season floods is the main regulator of the vegetation cover in the study area.

HIC – High-Income Country
High-income countries are those that have an average income per person above a figure that is worked out each year by the World Bank. For instance, in 2013 the high-income figure was 12,746 US dollars (or equivalent).
He had hiccups (HIC) after stuffing his face with ice cream. He could afford to, being from such a high-income country.
Refer to Mammoth Memory remembering numbers before trying to understand the following:
How to remember 12,746 dollars is the amount high-income countries were based on in 2013:
Try to imagine that after the high-income person finished his ice cream, he went home in a tank.
And in Mammoth Memory's numbers system:
TANK = 127
Then imagine it was rush hour and the tank got caught in a traffic jam.
In the Mammoth Memory number system:
RUSH = 46
When used together:
TANK RUSH = 12746
PLEASE NOTE: This figure is updated every year by the World Bank. As you get closer to your exam you might want to update the figures you will use. We chose 2013 as an example, to show you how easy it can be to remember specific numbers.

This article is about the dungeon inside the Divine Beast. For the Divine Beast in other uses, see Vah Ruta.
The Divine Beast Vah Ruta is one of the four Divine Beasts in Breath of the Wild. The interior of Vah Ruta serves as one of the four main dungeons in the game. Link must defeat Waterblight Ganon in order to free the mechanical beast from Ganon's control.
Gaining Entrance
See also: Divine Beast Vah Ruta (Main Quest)
After Link has completed Reach Zora's Domain and obtained at least twenty Shock Arrows, he meets Prince Sidon at East Reservoir Lake. From there, Sidon will swim around the lake with Link on his back, while the Malice-controlled Vah Ruta will defend itself with giant ice cubes and spiked ice balls shot from cannons. Use Cryonis to destroy these.
Eventually, Sidon will swim in close, allowing Link to use the Zora Armor to swim up a torrent of water and hit a glowing orb with a Shock Arrow. Once all four orbs have been hit, the Divine Beast is subdued, and Sidon brings Link to the entrance.
Dungeon Overview
When entering the Divine Beast, there is a shut gate on the left in the first room. Shoot the eyeball to destroy the Malice, then open the gate with Cryonis to get the dungeon map from the Guidance Stone, allowing Link to change the angle of water coming from Vah Ruta's trunk.
 1. From the door to the map room, head toward the gears on the wall. Use Magnesis to turn the handle, raising the terminal, and then activate it.
 2. Turn around and head to the door on the right which leads outside. Follow the ramp up and enter the door on the right. Besides a Guardian Scout II, there is a water spout moving a smaller water wheel, and an unmoving larger water wheel. A terminal is inside the smaller wheel, and can be accessed by freezing the spout using Cryonis with proper timing.
 3. Using the map to drop water onto the large water wheel, ride it up and go past the Guardian Scout to activate the switch. This creates a waterfall to use as a shortcut. From the switch, paraglide to a walkway leading to the centre of the big wheel, and use Stasis to hold the Ancient Orb in the Shrine Pedestal as it rotates, such that the gate stays open and allows Link to access the terminal right-side-up.
 4. Swim up the waterfall, grab the chest if desired, then go through the corridor behind where the Guardian Scout was. The terminal is on the very tip of the trunk. While this area can only be reached when the trunk is lowered, it can only be activated with the trunk in a high position, so it must be raised once Link reaches the waterspout.
 5. In the centre of Ruta's back, there is a small hole. Jump through it, and once on the surface, destroy the eyeball before the mouth can spit out Cursed Bokoblins. Look down through the gap in the floor to see the terminal surrounded by flames. In front of Link is a wall with gears and a handle. Use Magnesis to turn the handle to open the top of Ruta's head, and use the map to move Ruta's trunk to send water through the openings and extinguish the flame, allowing the final terminal to be activated.
With all the terminals activated, Link can return to the lowest level and enter the door opposite the map room. This is where the main control unit lies, and Waterblight Ganon.
Waterblight Ganon
Main article: Waterblight Ganon
Phase I: Waterblight Ganon uses a spear to attack that has pretty good range which he will swing, thrust, throw or use a shockwave. He also warps around the area. Focus on attacking his eye with arrows to stun him. Bomb arrows will work better than regular arrows as it will inflict more damage. When you hit his eye enough he will be stunned and fall. You can also just shoot him anywhere with an ancient arrow inflicting the most damage and he will fall right away. Run up to him and attack with melee weapons, arrows, elemental arrows or ancient arrows. Perfect dodge or backflip his spear attacks for melee flurry attack as well.
Phase II: As Waterblight Ganon gets towards half health he will take a new approach. He will fill the room with water leaving 4 solid platforms to stand on. He will be hanging from the ceiling now and begin using ice block attacks which can be taken out with Cryonis. It will be difficult to attack him if you are not on solid ground. You can use Cryonis to stand in the water area. When his health gets down enough he will use a laser from his eye. If you get hit by this it will cause significant damage. Continue your attack method as previous. Waterblight Ganon will use any of his attacks with no specific pattern at this point.
Once you defeat Waterblight Ganon, you will receive a Heart Container. Activate the Main Control Unit to free Mipha's spirit and receive Mipha's Grace.
Illusory Realm
See also: Illusory Realm
After activating the main control unit, Link cannot reenter Vah Ruta. However, as part of the EX Champion Mipha's Song DLC quest, he can present three Ruta's Emblems and be drawn into an "Illusory Realm" of memories, where he can re-experience the fight with Waterblight Ganon with limited equipment.
Treasure Chests
 - From the map terminal room, there is a Treasure Chest in the water to the right. Use Magnesis to pull the chest out of the water and open for an Ancient Spring.
 - In the area with the second terminal, a ledge with a Silver Rupee chest can be reached by gliding from the top of the smaller water wheel.
 - In the same room, using the map to set the large waterwheel turning allows access to a malice-covered chest on the outside of the wheel. Kill the eyeball to allow the chest to be looted for the bundle of ten Fire Arrows inside.
 - Inside the large waterwheel, use stasis to hold a block toward the outside of the wheel, allowing access to a chest on the wheel's hub with an Ancient Core. It is advisable to avoid being crushed when the stasis expires.
 - Swim up the waterfall created from pressing the switch, and paraglide from the highest point over to the ledge ahead with the chest. Open it for a Hylia Series spear - depending on the current World Level, possibly a Knight's Halberd or Royal Halberd.
 - Outside, a chest is on the inside of the trunk, containing an Ancient Shaft. Manipulate the trunk until Link can open it.
 - From the tip of the trunk in the highest position, a chest is visible on the left side of Ruta's back covered in Malice, while the eye is on the opposite side. Once the eyeball is destroyed, the chest can be opened for a bundle of ten Ice Arrows.

to those remarkable pioneers who lost their lives at the outset of the great South African gold saga. Here, on Cemetery Hill, they lie overlooking the beautiful Pilgrim's Rest valley.
THE JOUBERT BRIDGE
The Joubert Bridge was built in 1896 by an Italian engineer, Galetti. The bridge was officially opened to traffic on 5 May 1897 by the mine commissioner, Mr. J. S. Joubert, after whom it was named. In 1909 a section of the bridge was swept away by floods. A member of the local Italian community, G. Beretta, restored the structure, which has served Pilgrim's Rest to the present day.
The first coach robbery took place at the top of Pilgrim's Hill, now known as Robber's Pass, in 1899. Two masked highwaymen stopped the coach, threatened to shoot the driver and passengers, unhitched the mules and made their escape with gold to the value of 10 000 pounds. In 1912, the second coach robbery took place. Tommy Dennison, a well known character in Pilgrim's Rest, was badly in debt. His attempt at robbing the Mail Coach, a few metres from the spot where the first robbery took place, was however not so successful. Instead of gold sovereigns, Dennison found only a case of silver coins. He was arrested while trying to pay his debts with the stolen money. After a five year jail term, Tommy returned to Pilgrim's Rest where he opened The Highwayman's Garage.


China & India's Military – Graphic of the Day
China and India have the two largest populations of any country in the world. Today's graphic is a comparison chart of their military. Broken down by army, navy, air force, strategic forces and reserve size, see how these two giant countries manage their armed forces. At the bottom of the graphic is a chart of their military expenditures. Up until the year 2000, both countries had very comparable military spending patterns. However, over the last 12 years, while India's spending has remained relatively constant, China's has increased dramatically and is now over 3 times as large.

Background: Early patient contacts are considered important in medical education.
Aims: We studied the influence of a real patient trigger on study motivation and learning in problem-based study groups of first-year medical and dentistry students.
Methods: 156 eligible students were allocated into 17 groups. Six randomly selected groups received both the real patient and paper trigger, and 11 groups received only the paper trigger. The immediate and later effects of the trigger were assessed with qualitative and quantitative questionnaires and exam scores. The tutors answered questionnaires concerning learning outcomes.
Results: The students reported that the real patient trigger significantly improved their study motivation, understanding of the learning objectives and confidence in future patient encounters. The real patient trigger was considered significantly more interesting than the paper case. No statistically significant difference was observed in the exam scores. The tutors observed that groups with poor previous performance gained better results in study sessions.
Conclusions: Real patient triggers motivate students to learn basic medical sciences. Ways to present real patients to students should be considered in medical curricula from early on.

Design Research, Storytelling, and Entrepreneur Women in Rural Costa Rica: a case study
Maria Gabriela Hernandez
University of Houston
Keywords: visual storytelling; rural ecotourism; design research; empathic design
This paper describes a project exploring design research practices and empathic design to produce context-specific knowledge to inform and facilitate visual storytelling, in collaboration with the Women's Association of Chira Island, a rural ecotourism association from the Pacific of Costa Rica. While their pioneering ecotourism projects have gained national recognition, its members have faced multiple challenges, including reassessing gender and social roles and furthering their capacity to support development in the community. Their experiences and stories became their most valuable asset, triggering the need to communicate them to benefit similar populations. The contents of this project were developed during three field research visits and two years of collaborative design work, employing " time," "space," and "voice" to contextualize the stories. This investigation resulted in printed materials and videos designed for mobility and easy reproduction to be used by the association as tools to inspire women in similar rural areas.

This is an archived WebSchemas proposal Logo Schema for schema.org. See Proposals listing for more. Note: active schema.org development is now based at github
This is a proposal to add a 'logo' property to schema.org, and to add ImageObject as an expected value of both.
While we already have a general 'image' property of a Thing. The existing 'image' property has definition "URL of an image of the item.", and expected value "URL".
Schema.org already allows any property to have values that are either an URL or a specific thing whose description is given inline. In this sense, writing "expected value: URL" is not very informative, since it is true of any property that takes non-string values.
Proposal
 - add a property 'logo' that applies to an Organization (and any others?), and whose expected values are said to be both URL (for historical compatibility with Thing's 'image') and ImageObject.
 - add an additional expected property of ImageObject to Thing's image property.
 - definition is "URL of an image for the logo of the item."

The Aurora Collection returns to the Natural History Museum
A world-class collection of 296 naturally coloured diamonds has been loaned to the Natural History Museum by diamond collectors Alan Bronstein and Harry Rodman. The Aurora Collection comprises 267.45 carats of exceptionally rare stones, from the 12 colour varieties, and reveals an enchanting spectrum from emerald green to blood red.
'Gems like these were not meant to be imprisoned in a dark vault for the momentary pleasure of a few eyes,' said Alan Bronstein, co-owner of the Aurora Collection. 'The true value of a collection is sharing it with as many people who are interested to experience nature's diversity of expression. It's thrilling to think that the collection will be seen by the 3.6 million visitors that come to the Natural History Museum each year.'
Coloured, so called 'fancy', diamonds have become more desirable than ever. Coloured stones were recently worn by actresses Halle Berry and Scarlett Johansson. Fancy diamonds are very rare: only one in every 10,000 gem-quality diamonds is coloured. The colour in diamonds results from tiny amounts of elements other than carbon, or from atomic scale defects, in the diamond structure.
'Each coloured diamond tells its own story, giving us insight not only into its formation but also to the deep earth processes that took place when the gem was formed,' said Alan Hart, Curator of Minerals at the Natural History Museum. 'For example, yellow diamonds are due to the presence of nitrogen in the structure and green diamonds owe their colour to natural radiation damage, It's an amazing opportunity to be able to display this unique collection of exceptionally rare gems at the Museum.'
The Aurora Collection was displayed for the first time in Europe in 2005 as part of the Natural History Museum's Diamonds exhibition. This stunning collection of diamonds is now on display at the end of the Museum's Minerals and Meteorites gallery. The display highlights a little-known property shared by coloured and white diamonds - some of them glow and change colour when exposed to ultra-violet light.
The Natural History Museum has secured £150,000 of funding, from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS)/ Wolfson Museums and Galleries Improvement Fund, to transform the space that contains the Aurora collection into a dazzling gem gallery. Redevelopment plans are currently being made and the gallery is set to be finished in December 2007.

text: This paper introduces a novel wrapper-based outlier detection framework (WrapperOD) and its instance (HOUR) for identifying outliers in noisy data (i.e., data with noisy features) with strong couplings between outlying behaviors. Existing subspace or feature selection-based methods are significantly challenged by such data, as their search of feature subset(s) is independent of outlier scoring and thus can be misled by noisy features. In contrast, HOUR takes a wrapper approach to iteratively optimize the feature subset selection and outlier scoring using a top-κ outlier ranking evaluation measure as its objective function. HOUR learns homophily couplings between outlying behaviors (i.e., abnormal behaviors are not independent - they bond together) in constructing a noise-resilient outlier scoring function to produce a reliable outlier ranking in each iteration. We show that HOUR (i) retains a 2-approximation outlier ranking to the optimal one; and (ii) significantly outperforms five stateof-the-art competitors on 15 real-world data sets with different noise levels in terms of AUC and/or P@n. The source code of HOUR is available at _URL_

The following has already been listed as a feature request at Adobe Bug System and is only to illustrate the situation which is basically the lack of badly needed functionality in ActionScript 3.
The problem relates to
flash.geom.PerspectiveProjection introduced with the load of native 3D in Flash 10.
- The object is added to the stage with the defined x, y, z, rotationX, rotationY and rotationZ properties.
- For a better 3D impression, perspective projection is applied.
- After all transformations on-screen size of the object is required.
The code is illustrative and self-explanatory:
addPerspective() method adds perspective projection and
visibleBitmapBounds() returns a Rectangle with visible bounds of the object.
The result and the problem
Depending on the stage size, the result is the blue 3D-rotated plane in the perspective alongside the traceback:
Plane size: 274x365 Plane bounds: (x=256, y=209, w=274, h=365) Visible, on-screen bounds of the Plane: (x=258, y=215, w=171, h=287)
Plane size and bounds are correct to what it is without perspective transformations, but they don't help with the size of an object on screen.
So what is currently missing from ActionScript 3 entirely, is the means to get visible bounds of the DisplayObject that has perspective projection. It is especially painful if the object can't be output to stage for measuring (
If any math geniuses have a better way to get visible bounds of the object with perspective projection, you're most welcome to share it!


text: Simultaneous machine translation has recently gained traction thanks to significant quality improvements and the advent of streaming applications. Simultaneous translation systems need to find a trade-off between translation quality and response time, and with this purpose multiple latency measures have been proposed. However, latency evaluations for simultaneous translation are estimated at the sentence level, not taking into account the sequential nature of a streaming scenario. Indeed, these sentence-level latency measures are not well suited for continuous stream translation, resulting in figures that are not coherent with the simultaneous translation policy of the system being assessed. This work proposes a stream level adaptation of the current latency measures based on a re-segmentation approach applied to the output translation, that is successfully evaluated on streaming conditions for a reference IWSLT task.

Making Tax Digital (MTD)
The government plans to move to a fully digital tax system by 2020 so you will no longer need to submit annual tax returns. The Making Tax Digital system will collect your tax data in digital format. Taxpayers will be able to see all their tax information in one place.
Four principles have been laid down by HMRC in their process of removing the need for the filing of tax returns.
1. Tax simplified - No duplication of information.
2. Tax in one place - All tax data in one place, the "digital account" and various taxes can be netted off against each other.
3. Businesses - HMRC will be digitally updated by businesses on a quarterly basis to enable interim tax calculations.
4. Individuals - Enabling individuals to see their whole tax situation in one place and providing digital interaction with HMRC.
Making Tax Digital - Time Line
The timeline for Making Tax Digital is a movable feast at the moment, so revisit this page for updates.
- MTD Pilot (Jan to Jun 2017)
Consultation and testing starts for collecting property letting and other income. New online HMRC billing system starts.
- Digital Tax Accounts (Jul - Dec 2017)
Digital tax accounts show all tax liabilities in one place. Automated tax code adjustments for PAYE.
- Digital Tax Accounts (Jan - Jun 2018)
Interest paid by banks and building societies begin to be shown in tax accounts.
- Quarterly Reporting (Jul-Dec 2018)
The self-employed, businesses and landlords with turnover above the VAT Threshold (currently £85,00 from 1 April 2017) will begin providing HMRC quarterly with National Insurance and Income Tax using "ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE". What this accounting software should be is still under development.
- Going Main Stream + VAT (2019)
The self-employed, businesses and landlords with turnover between the minimum MTD threshold £10,000 and the VAT Threshold (currently £85,00 from 1 April 2017) will begin providing HMRC quarterly with National Insurance and Income Tax using "ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE". MTD also starts for VAT.
- MTD is the Norm (2019)
By 2020 most self-employed, businesses and landlords will be required to provide HMRC on a quarterly basis .
A full range of services will be available through HMRC digital tax accounts


Is My Pet Rat Blind? All You Need To Know (+ Rat Blindness Tests)
Is My Pet Rat Blind? A question often asked by pet rat owners. But if so, how can you determine that? The good news is that there are two reliable ways of finding out if your rat is blind or not, and we will discuss them in a moment, including caring for your rat if they are going blind.
Is my pet rat blind? To determine if your rat is blind, you can conduct a finger test. You can carry out the test when they're focused on something else or in front of their cage. Keep reading to learn about how both tests can be conducted safely. However, the most reliable way to know if your rat is blind is by consulting a vet.
Before we dive into the tests, we must understand how the eyesight of a rat works and what may lead to blindness in rats, then we'll take a look at measures you can adopt if your pet rat is going blind.
Rats do not have good eyesight
Unlike most animals, rats do not have the brightest vision. They lack what is known as 20/20 vision. Therefore, their vision of the world is blurred and hazy.
Since their vision is not optimized to see beyond a few feet, they may not recognize your presence by sight if you're at extreme ends of a big room. However, this is not an indication that their blind but a limitation of their vision.
With that said, you may wonder why they're able to detect your presence when you open the door or make a loud sound. The reason is that they have a heightened sense of hearing, not that they suddenly recovered their vision.
A commonly underlooked fact is that rats are nocturnal animals. Even at close range, they still do not have the best vision. Therefore, before you fret about your pet rat going blind, you must remember that rats do not depend entirely on their vision.
Rats are color blind
Rats do not experience the full range of light frequency, but they can detect ultraviolet light invisible to the human eye.
A rat's vision is black and white mostly, typically with a touch of other colors and most prominently grey. Therefore, a color-based test will fall short of determining a rat's blindness, regardless of how perfect their vision seems to be
Can Rats Go Blind?
Yes, rats can go blind. Compared to other animals, rats may have a higher propensity to go blind since they are not born with excellent vision. There are myths linked to blindness in rats, with an impeccable degree of truth to them. However, the primary cause of rat blindness is poor vision.
Does The Color of a Rat's Eye Matter?
Yes, the color of a rat's eyes matters when it comes to blindness. Rats that do not have red or pink eyes are known to have better vision than those that do. Also, those with red eyes tend to respond quickly to any form of light than their peers do.
Rats with pink and red eyes are said to have a shallow depth of field. Depth of field is a term used in photography to describe the area in view which is in focus.
If you have ever paid close attention to red-eyed rats, you may notice how frequently they shift their heads. The reason for this behavior is so that they can gain focus on objects not present in their limited depth of field. Many believe that the limited vision is the secret behind the red-eyed rat's enhanced nocturnal capabilities.
Sadly, that's far from the truth. It is impossible to see without light, and the red-eyed rats are no exception, especially in low-light areas.
Albino Rats And Blindness
Albino rats have poor vision in low light conditions due to their pink eyes. So we can say their vision is a lot worse than their peers.
According to science, rats with red or pink eyes cannot develop the same number of rod-shaped receptors compared to their peers due to the absence of melanin in their eyes. The cells that develop into the rod-shaped receptors require melanin for development
Since melanin is absent, about 1/3 of their rod cells are malformed, leaving the albino rat with poor vision.
It is sad that albino rats become disabled a few weeks after birth and may not even make it to maturity without going blind or almost blind.
Pink + Red-Eyed Rats Can Suffer From Light Exposure
Determining a pet rat's sensitivity to light may be a cruel experiment. However, we can safely infer that rodents with light-colored eyes will have a hard time exposed to bright light or sunlight because it could damage their fragile eyes.
You can help them by :
 - Placing their cage as far away from bright light as you possibly can.
 - Close the curtains to limit light rays from the sun unless it is a rainy day.
 - A window panel with a darkening effect would be perfect since you can move them around if your rats are constantly changing spaces.
What Else Can Make A Rat Go Blind?
Rats are like humans, so they can go blind for so many reasons. Some of the reasons include:
 - Poor Diet
 - Sickness
 - Congenital Blindness
 - Genetics
Eye infections can also lead to blindness in pet rats. If you notice any changes in their eyes, such as bulging, swelling, or inflammation of surrounding tissue, seek help immediately. Failure to do so may lead to blindness.
Rats can also lose their sight due to play fights. Because of their sharp claws, they may injure one another in the eye, leading to blindness.
 Though you may not be able to protect your pet rat from all the dangers that can lead to blindness, you certainly can ensure that their diet is in check. You may also adopt the use of vitamins made for rats.
Will My Pet Rat See Better At Night?
Rats are nocturnal creatures, but these little rodents are more optimized for smell and hearing than they are seeing. Not that these creatures do not see at night, they just are not visually inclined.
In the wild, they're more likely to flee predators by the sounds they make as they draw closer. Because fewer predators move around at night, it makes sense for them to hunt in the dark.
How To Tell If Your Rat Is Going Blind?
To know if your pet rat is blind, you can try one of these tests. However, nothing beats the services provided by a trained vet because there is no home kit designed to serve this purpose.
Let's get to the tests:
 1. The finger test. To perform the finger test, make sure you wash your hands thoroughly. If you do not wash your hands thoroughly, they may likely respond to the smell of food instead of the sight of your finger. After washing, hold your fingers 3 inches away from the edge of their cage while moving back and forth, staying within their field of vision. The goal here is to see if they can keep track of your moving fingers. If they fail to do so, repeat the test a few more times to rule out blindness. In some cases, rats are just not willing to participate in the tests.
 2. The sneaky finger test. If your rat continues to shake its head in a manner depicting focus, raise your fingers to their side but without making noise. If your pet rat doesn't detect it immediately – chances are, your rat may be going blind.
What To Do If Your Rat Is Blind?
Unlike humans, rats capable of living happily with blindness, but you have a role to play. Ensure not to change their space too often or move things around their cage, as doing this can lead to confusion and distress, which may take them longer to do things their sighted peers would easier.
Final Thoughts
Is my pet rat blind? You got the answer: In summary, there are two ways to know if your pet rat is going blind, you can try the finger test or the sneaky finger test. All of which can or may not be effective in some cases. However, it is refreshing to know that a blind rat can live a long and happy life so long as you are there to support them. If you are still worried your pet rat may be going blind, talk to a vet right away.

The solar acoustic waves are modified by the interaction with sunspots. The interaction can be treated as a scattering problem: an incident wave propagating toward a sunspot is scattered by the sunspot into different modes. The absorption cross section and scattering cross section are two important parameters in the scattering problem. In this study, we use the wavefunction of the scattered wave, measured with a deconvolution method, to compute the absorption cross section σab and the scattering cross section σsc for the radial order n = 0 − 5 for two sunspots, NOAAs 11084 and 11092. In the computation of the cross sections, the random noise and dissipation in the measured acoustic power are corrected. For both σab and σsc, the value of NOAA 11092 is greater than that of NOAA 11084, but their overall n dependences are similar: decreasing with n. The ratio of σabs of two sunspots is approximately equal to the ratio of sunspot radii for all ns, while the ratio of σscs of two sunspots is greater than the ratio of sunspot radii and increases with n. This suggests that σab is approximately proportional to the sunspot radius, while the change of σsc with radius is faster than the linear increase.

This paper examines the current educational discourse on work and learning and explores conceptualisations of work-connected learning; in particular, work-based, work-related and workplace learning. It is argued that varying definitions of work-associated learning has led to conceptual confusion in the literature. Through a conceptual analysis of the three terms, current usage is problematized. The term work learning is introduced in the paper as an overarching term that refers to any and all of these three forms of learning. Indeed, it is proposed as an umbrella term for any learning that is connected with some form of work in order to aid discussion. Within this remit, many learning forms can be identified; however, it is argued that there is a need for clarification as current conceptualisations are often conflicting.

How to Make a Tent in Your Bedroom
by Pilar Ethridge, Demand Media
 A bedroom tent could serve as a fort, castle, fortress or bunker in the mind of a child. That's why they provide hours and hours of fun. With just a few items that are likely already in your bedroom, you can build a tent in just a few minutes. Fortunately, this is also an activity that won't take long to clean up once you're done.
 Step 1
 Take the blankets off the bed so that you can use them as the walls of the tent. Sheets will be less useful so leaves those in place.
 Step 2
 Place a chair 3 to 5 feet away from the edge of the bed in your room. Throw a blanket over the chair and stretch one side of the blanket over the edge of the bed. If the blanket slides off, move the chair closer to the bed. The chair should create a rise, similar to the rise in a tent.
 Step 3
 Take another blanket and place one side over the same chair and the other side on the floor. Spread the blanket out so that there's room to crawl under it. Don't pull it so far that the chair falls over. Together, both blankets create the walls of the tent.
 Step 4
 Place a flashlight and snacks inside the tent. Using a flashlight, small children can read or play inside the fort for hours.

The Emigrant Register was established in 1989 as a service for genealogists
and the descendants of Finnish emigrants.The foundation of the Register was a
part of the Delaware 350 Anniversary, to commemorate the beginning of Finnish
Emigration to North America. Sources include passport records (from the year
1890 up to 1920), passenger records of the Finnish Steamship Company (from the
year 1892 up to 1950) and information on Finns deceased abroad (from 1918 up to
1950). The Register receives a large number of enquiries from
abroad as well as from Finland.


text: Bar straightening is an important work before the bar is applied as qualified products. In this paper, the mechanics of the straightening process is analyzed in detail on the base of conjugate quadric theory. A simulation program is developed with the investigation of straightening process as well. The equations, which describe roll contour curve and the longitudinal section, are given and simulated in computer. And a brief method of designing and drawing the straightening roll contour curve is introduced.


Scatterplot legend and fill not working in Octave
The following works for me:
n = 100;
x = randn(n, 1);
y = randn(n, 1);
S = rand(n, 1)*20;
hold on
scatter(x(1:50), y(1:50), S(1:50), "red", "filled")
scatter(x(51:100), y(51:100), S(51:100), "green", "filled")
hold off
print('-depsc', 'bubbleplot.eps');
However, I'm not able to add a legend, and I didn't find any bug report or indication of a missing functionality for this. So, as an alternative, I would suggest adding marker and text to your plot.
How to get the size of tar.gz in (MB) file in python
According to Python on-line docs, you should look at the size attributes of a TarInfo object.
Getting dataset for building association rules with Weka
Apart from the example dataset used in the following class, Association Rule Mining with WEKA, you might want to try the market-basket dataset.
Also, please note that several datasets are listed on Weka website, in the Datasets section, some of them coming from the UCI repository (e.g., the Plants Data Set).
R Using a for() loop to fill one dataframe with another
Not sure I fully understood your question, but you can try this:
df1 <- data.frame(col1=letters[1:26], col2=sample(1:100, 26))
df2 <- with(df1, expand.grid(col1=col1, col2=col1))
df2$col3 <- df1$col2
The last command use recycling (it could be writtent as rep(df1$col2, 26) as well).
The results are shown below:
> head(df1, n=3)
 col1 col2
1 a 68
2 b 73
3 c 45
> tail(df1, n=3)
 col1 col2
24 x 22
25 y 4
26 z 17
> head(df2, n=3)
 col1 col2 col3
1 a a 68
2 b a 73
3 c a 45
> tail(df2, n=3)
 col1 col2 col3
674 x z 22
675 y z 4
676 z z 17
Regarding the approach of displaying a classification/decision tree from the command line?
I'm not sure if you are looking for something very elaborated, but basically decision trees are printed when you use weka.classifiers.trees. There is an illustration with Random Tree in a response of mine , but here is what you would get using the J48 algorithm on the iris dataset:
~/weka/data$ weka weka.classifiers.trees.J48 -t iris.arff -i

Trying to Install RVM 1.8.7
If you don't have rvm on your system, then follow the instructions here: Installing RVM. Basically, you have to download a shell script that will does the job for you (fetch the latest release and install it). Then, just add
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"
in your .profile, .bash_profile, or whatever you use.
SQL window function in R Language
You can use aggregate and merge if you are familiar with SQL syntax. Taking one of the example from the PostgreSQL manual, we would use
empsalary <- data.frame(depname=rep(c("develop", "personnel", "sales"), c(5, 2, 3)),
 empno=c(11, 7, 9, 8, 10, 5, 2, 3, 1, 4),
 salary=c(5200, 4200, 4500, 6000, 5200, 3500, 3900, 4800, 5000, 4800))
merge(empsalary, aggregate(salary ~ depname, empsalary, mean), by="depname")
to reproduce the first example (compute average salary by depname).
 depname empno salary.x salary.y
1 develop 11 5200 5020.000
2 develop 7 4200 5020.000
3 develop 9 4500 5020.000
4 develop 8 6000 5020.000
5 develop 10 5200 5020.000
6 personnel 5 3500 3700.000
7 personnel 2 3900 3700.000
8 sales 3 4800 4866.667
9 sales 1 5000 4866.667
10 sales 4 4800 4866.667
You may probably want to look at what plyr has to offer for more elaborated construction.
p-value matrix of x and y variables from anova output
Here is one solution, which consists in generating all combinations of Y- and X-variables to test (we cannot use combn) and run a linear model in each case:
dfrm <- data.frame(y=gl(ncol(yvars), ncol(xvars), labels=names(yvars)),
 x=gl(ncol(xvars), 1, labels=names(xvars)), pval=NA)
## little helper function to create formula on the fly
fm <- function(x) as.formula(paste(unlist(x), collapse="~"))
## merge both datasets
full.df <- cbind.data.frame(yvars, xvars)
## apply our LM row-wise
dfrm$pval <- apply(dfrm[,1:2], 1,
 function(x) anova(lm(fm(x), full.df))$'Pr(>F)'[1])
## arrange everything in a rectangular matrix of p-values
res <- matrix(dfrm$pval, nc=3, dimnames=list(levels(dfrm$x), levels(dfrm$y)))
Sidenote: With high-dimensional datasets, relying on the QR decomposition to compute the p-value of a linear regression is time-consuming. It is easier to compute the matrix of Pearson linear correlation for each pairwise comparisons, and transform the r statistic into a Fisher-Snedecor F using the relation F = νa r2/(1-r2), where degrees of freedom are defined as νa=(n-2)-#{(xi=NA),(yi=NA)} (that is, (n-2) minus the number of pairwise missing values–if there're no missing values, this formula is the usual coefficient R2 in regression).
R multiple file "split and plot"
Assuming you already have your data frame set up correctly, how about using aggregate (or ddply from the plyr package)? Here is a toy example with one such data frame (you will need to embed this in your loop or write a custom function).
L01_001 <- data.frame(Cases=gl(5, 2, 5*2*2, labels=c("AAA","BBB","CCC","DDD","EEE")),
 replicate(3, rnorm(5*2*2)))
mean.by.case <- with(L01_001, aggregate(L01_001[,-1], list(Cases=Cases), mean))
## opar <- par(mfrow=c(nlevels(L01_001$Cases), 1))
## apply(mean.by.case[,-1], 1, function(x) barplot(x))
## par(opar)
library(lattice)
barchart(~ X1 + X2 + X3 | Cases, mean.by.case)
I would not recommend using bar charts for visualizing your


Make DataGenerator A Hadoop Job
Data generator is provided to generate tuples with specified number of fields for testing purpose. You can configure the datatype, length, cardinality, distribution and the percentage of NULL values for each field. Data generator generates random values that matches the configuration. Two types of distribution are supported: uniform and zipf distribution.
The current implementation runs on a single box and is single threaded. Its execution time is linear to the amount of data to be generated. When the amount of data reaches hundreds of gigabytes, the time required becomes unacceptable. In other words, this application is not scalable to deal with large amount of data.
The newer version of implementation allows to generate data in hadoop mode. You can specify the number of mappers, each mapper only needs to generate a fraction of data. This can greatly reduce the execution time.
Tuples generated by data generator can contain fields that are uniformly distributed or Zipf distributed. Both types of fields can be split into multiple processors with each processor generating a fraction of total rows. If M rows are to be generated by N processors, then each processor shall generate M/N rows. When the data from each processor are combined together, the result should still be uniformly distributed or zipf distributed.
Data generator is modified to be a hadoop job.
Define following env variables:
export HADOOP_CLASSPATH=$pigjar:$zipfjar:$datagenjar
For Hadoop 0.18
hadoop jar -libjars $zipfjar $datagenjar org.apache.pig.test.utils.datagen.DataGenerator -conf $conf_file [options] colspec...
For Hadoop 0.20 or Greater
hadoop jar $datagenjar org.apache.pig.test.utils.datagen.DataGenerator -libjars $zipfjar -conf $conf_file [options] colspec..
To run it locally, besides using hadoop jar without -m, you can also use:
java -cp $pigjar:$zipfjar:$datagenjar org.apache.pig.test.utils.datagen.DataGenerator [options] colspec...
Future Works
This implementation is constrained by the memory availability. For now, we assume the cardinality of a field that need a mapping file is less than 2M, and the number of such fields is not more than 5. In this case, the memory required should be less than 1G for most settings. To work with bigger cardinality or more of string fields, the DataGenerator has to generate data with random numbers and then does an explicit join between the mapping file and the data file.
