As a sports bettor, you need to be aware that weather is a factor in the NHL playoffs. That seems like a ridiculous statement, but it's true. Bettors who are aware of the potential for weather issues in a game, and who can adjust accordingly, can give themselves a much needed edge as the playoffs progress and the remaining teams get better and better.
How does the weather affect the NHL playoffs? Quite simply, really. Rinks are designed to keep buildings at a suitable temperature so that ice can be consistent. For the most part they are able to maintain ice well, but there are two enemies to their efforts, and both come in the spring as the playoffs progress – heat and humidity. Because the doors open and close so much before a game it can be very hard for a building to control the temperature and humidity in the building. Both factors have the same basic impact on ice – it makes it much slower. When ice gets warmer or more humid then it gets softer, and that makes it harder to skate fast. Hard ice is fast ice, so soft ice slows things down and NHL handicappers need to keep this in mind..
There are further issues that can be caused. If the ice remains soft then it is also going to deteriorate more rapidly and more significantly. If they turn up the refrigeration and the air conditioning in an attempt to control the situation then there is a good chance that the problem can swing in the other direction and the ice can become brittle and also fragile. Either way, it is very hard for icemakers to maintain a good surface during the playoffs. This is even more of the case if they have to remove or cover the ice frequently – like if the building is also being used for the NBA playoffs.
When trying to determine whether the weather is going to be a factor in the playoffs and should be considered when preparing to bet there are four factors to keep in mind:
History of the building – It's far more likely that the ice is going to be a factor if it has been in the past. Some buildings have more problem than others – the southern arenas are often a problem because of their weather, for example. By looking back at what has happened in the past NHL handicappers can get a sense of whether something is likely to happen again.
Team speed – The more a hockey team relies on speed to get their edge, the more significantly it is going to be impacted by problems with the ice. There are some teams that look to move up the ice faster than their opponents can set up on defense, and which try to get back on defense as quickly as they can. A team that is particularly fast is hard for an opponent to play against at the best of times, but that difficulty can be particularly significant later in the NHL playoffs if they have the stamina to maintain their speed because their opponents will be getting tired and more worn down. Soft ice could serve to slow down the team and minimize their edge. The betting public is more likely to focus on the edge their speed gives than the challenges of the conditions, so savvy sports bettors could find value.
Passing aggressiveness – Some teams rely on longer breakaway passes in an attempt to create opportunities and mismatches. Others prefer shorter, puck controlling passes. If the condition of the ice is suspect then those longer passes are higher risk. Teams could fail to complete those passes effectively, or they could be forced to alter their game away form what has got them to where they are. A team that is less aggressive with their passing – or less reliant on aggressive passing for their success – could be a more attractive bet if the weather is likely to be an issue.
Familiarity with ice issues – NHL handicappers need to realize that a team like Edmonton is going to be far less familiar with dealing with softening ice and the issues it brings than one like Tampa Bay. If those two teams were playing each other in the playoffs then they would both have to deal with the same conditions, but Tampa would clearly be better suited to adapting and adjusting than Edmonton would. Teams on the east coast would be better at dealing with humidity and the effects than a team from somewhere like Calgary or Denver where humidity isn't often an issue. Use these facts when handicapping and betting on the NHL playoffs.

CULTURAL DIFFERENCES IN BODY IMAGE: THE PERSPECTIVES OF EUROPEAN AMERICAN, AFRICAN AMERICAN AND ASIAN AMERICAN COLLEGE WOMEN
Cultural Differences in Body Image: The Perspectives of European American, African American and Asian American College Women is a single university case study, conducted at a large Midwestern public university. The sample population consisted of European American, African American and Asian American women between the ages of 18 and 25 and who have lived in the U.S. for at least the past 10 years. The sampling was based on comparable case selection in which the three ethnic groups were compared on their body image and levels of body satisfaction. The quantitative portion of this study consisted of administering the Young Women's Experiences with Body Weight and Shape assessment, created in 1997 by M.E. Delaney et al. There were a total of 450 women surveyed (278 European American, 148 African American and 24 Asian American). The qualitative portion of this study consisted of 3 semi-structured focus groups; 1 European American, 1 African American and 1 Asian American. A total of 28 women participated in the focus groups. The purpose of this study was to obtain information from college-age women representing three different ethnicities with regard to their body image, body shape, appearance and related factors. The findings from this study will provide the health education profession with valuable data and information on body image from a cultural perspective. In addition, body image prevention/intervention programming that addresses women based on their ethnic background can be developed using the information and data from this study. A One-Way ANOVA and Tukey Post Hoc test were conducted to identify differences between the three groups on the assessment. Patterns and themes were coded and analyzed for the information obtained during the focus groups. Results from the assessment and the focus groups, literature findings, feminism and cultural studies theory were triangulated and conclusions drawn. African American women expressed the greatest level of body satisfaction on the 5 subscales of the assessment and these findings were supported by the information provided from the 3 focus groups.

The team has developed specialised software, which can produce theoretical ride dynamic performance predictions for any ride or given track profile.
Thereafter using state-of the-art technology and sophisticated engineering solutions, the accelerations (g-forces) can be measured on the ride and compared to the theoretical results. The engineers use their expertise in this area of amusement attraction engineering to identify problems with track profiles and offer suitable engineering solutions to improve dynamic performance. In addition, the software can be used together with the team's structural engineering expertise to undertake track design, and has been used in the development of rides such as Thunder Coaster (Tusenfryd, Norway) and Antelope (Gulliver's World, UK).
Acceleration measurement is a useful tool in monitoring the ride dynamic performance as the ride ages; this is particularly useful on timber roller coasters. Dynamic performance measurement and analysis services can be incorporated into the Annual Inspections or as a stand-alone service.

GAT: a simulation framework for testing the association of genomic intervals.
Heger A., Webber C., Goodson M., Ponting CP., Lunter G.
MOTIVATION: A common question in genomic analysis is whether two sets of genomic intervals overlap significantly. This question arises, for example, when interpreting ChIP-Seq or RNA-Seq data in functional terms. Because genome organization is complex, answering this question is non-trivial. SUMMARY: We present Genomic Association Test (GAT), a tool for estimating the significance of overlap between multiple sets of genomic intervals. GAT implements a null model that the two sets of intervals are placed independently of one another, but allows each set's density to depend on external variables, for example, isochore structure or chromosome identity. GAT estimates statistical significance based on simulation and controls for multiple tests using the false discovery rate. AVAILABILITY: GAT's source code, documentation and tutorials are available at _URL_

Visualize Indonesia Population 2007 to 2012 in City and Village as Data Geek III Entry
While looking at Data Geek Entry Blog Post on Lumira SCN. I was looking for data sets for my internal projects but then I came across to Indonesia data sets in which interested to me as this is my home country data being provided and I'm challenge on how to visualize the data sets.
So as the provided data set came with .svid extensions which is an early version of Lumira and still named Visual Intelligence. I just go ahead and open the file with my Lumira 1.19 and good things it can be open, in which then I save it as different name so it will be save in .lums which is the new extensions for Lumira.
Below screenshots is the final results of my Data Story that shows Indonesia population who lived in City and Village from 2007 – 2012.
So I am using Esri Map that already included in Lumira and also using prompt and animation to show on how the movement trending of Indonesia population from Village to City and how this trend make cities in Indonesia becoming more towards an Urban City. Using geo map we can easily visualize Indonesia is consists of many islands and the concentration of people is mainly on Java island (the lower part) as visualize on map and less population of City and Village in Central and Eastern part of Indonesia.


The Corona Simulator
The Corona Simulator
In this guide we'll walk through the basic functionality of the Corona Simulator.
There are three files that will launch the simulator. Two are meant to be run from the terminal, and the other by itself. The terminal-launched versions will give you access to the debugger as well as display any errors that may occur. These three files are named 'Corona Simulator', 'simulator' and 'debugger'.
To launch the Corona Simulator, simply double click its icon. In the dialog that appears, navigate to your project directory and click "Open".
The project simulator itself has all the similar features across the three versions mentioned earlier:
 - Re-launching: If you modify your code, rather than restarting the simulator, you can relaunch from within the simulator by either going to 'File' and choosing 'Relaunch' or typing 'command-R'. If you've saved the changes to your main.lua file, you will now see the latest version in the simulator.
 - Video Recording: if you want to show off your app or need to demonstrate a functionality or a bug, you can record a video of it at 15fps. To access this, go to the 'File' menu and select 'Record Video' or hit 'control-R'. You will then be prompted for a file name and location to save your video. Once you have done this, your video will start recording. To stop, simply go back to the 'File' menu and select 'Stop Recording' or 'control-S'. The file is saved in quicktime format.
 - Accelerometer Control: You can change the simulated orientation of the device or send a 'shake' command by accessing the 'Hardware' menu, or by pressing 'Command' along with the left, right, or up arrows.
 - Suspend: You can suspend your simulation at any time by accessing the 'Hardware' menu and selecting 'Suspend' or 'Command' and the down arrow. This will pause your project's simulation. To resume, access the 'Hardware' menu again and select 'Resume' or press 'Command' and the down arrow again.
To access the terminal launch versions, simply drag either the 'simulator' or 'debugger' to the terminal and hit 'Return', or double-click them to launch a terminal window automatically. Both will ask you to navigate to your project directory and click "Open". The debugger requires a command in order to begin. Type 'help' at the prompt for a list of those commands.

Changing notation in differential forms
Dear all:
I'm trying to compute the curvature of a Schwarzschild metric using differential forms (Cartan formalism),
sage: reset()
sage: var('t,r,theta,phi')
sage: coords = [t,r,theta, phi]
sage: U = CoordinatePatch((t,r,theta, phi))
sage: Omega = DifferentialForms(U)
sage: X = function('X', r, latex_name=r"\Xi")
sage: f = exp(X)
sage: vi =[]
sage: for i in xrange(len(coords)):
... vi.append(DifferentialForm(Omega,1))
sage: vi[0][0] = f
sage: vi[1][1] = 1/f
sage: vi[2][2] = r
sage: vi[3][3] = r*sin(theta)
sage: dvi=[]
... dvi.append(diff(vi[i]))
sage: dvi
[-e^X(r)*D[0](X)(r)*dt/\dr, 0, dr/\dtheta, sin(theta)*dr/\dphi + r*cos(theta)*dtheta/\dphi]
I'd like to know if it's possible to manipulate the result in a way that:
 - the term D[0](X)(r) in the last line could be written as X'(r) or just X'.
 - the dvi is expressed in terms of the vi-forms instead of the Omega-basis.
Any help is thanked.

Like the works of some of her contemporaries' novels, Jane Austen's 19th century writings are often referred to as realistic novels. Her books, such as Pride and Prejudice, use fiction to depict as closely as possible the day-to-day experiences of people in a particular time and social class. The characters in realistic novels are complex beings with multifaceted emotions who are faced with plausible, everyday challenges of their era and station in life. Other novelists of the 19th century whose works are classified in the realism category include George Eliot and Leo Tolstoy.

Literary realism is a branch of literature which set out to reflect society as it was, to get as close to the bone of real life as it could. It often depicts more humble or banal events than Romantic writers. So most of Jane Austen's novels are realist because they are fairly mundane; they depict fairly ordinary people, usually woman, doing fairly ordinary things. There are few locked room mysteries, no strange and mysterious happenings, or insane wives. The women do ordinary things like get married and the men are fairly ordinary men.
If you compare Pride and Prejudice to a novel like Jane Eyre, the differences become clear: no secret insane wives imprisoned in the home, no misplaced identities and no Byronic heroes.
In a way it could be described as less 'exciting' than Romantic novels but it is a truer reflection of society because it relies less on stylization and more on holding a mirror up to society.

Original Austro-Hungarian Empire WW1 Wound Medal - Karl IV. (Verwundetenmedaille) for one wound (one stripe on the ribbon), IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, ON GENUINE TRIFOLD RIBBON, A NICE DETAILED EXAMPLE
HISTORY OF THE AWARD:
Wound Medal (Verwundetenmedaille, Croatian: Ranjenička medalja) was a decoration of the Empire of Austria-Hungary. It was established on August 12, 1917 by Emperor Karl and was the last medal to be officially founded in the empire. The Wound Medal was awarded to servicemembers of the Austro-Hungarian armed forces and to persons attached to the Austro-Hungarian armed forces who were wounded as a result of combat operations. Besides wounded persons, it was also awarded to persons who were disabled or suffered serious damage to their health in connection with military actions. The medal was made of zinc, and measured 38-mm in diameter. The zinc surface was dull gray, but examples with a polished surface often appear. The obverse of the medal featured a bust of Emperor Karl with his name in Latin "CAROLUS" above and a wreath of laurels below. Between the bust and the laurels in smaller letters was the name of the designer of the medal, K. Pracht. The reverse featured the words LAESO MILITI ("to the wounded soldier") and the date in Roman numerals "MCMXVIII" (1918). The medal was suspended from a typical Austrian-style trifold ribbon, 39-mm in width. The ribbon was gray-green with 4-mm wide red edge stripes. The number of wounds was indicated by narrower 2-mm wide red stripes, edged in black, centered on the ribbon. No stripes indicated an award for someone invalided out of service. One stripe indicated a single wound, two stripes two wounds, etc.

It is the term used to describe penile subincision, the process of urethrotomy, where the bottom of the penis is cut and the urethra is slit open, from the urethral opening to the base. The slit length can vary.
This is an old Australian tradition that used to be referred to as Mika or the Terrible Rite.


text: At present appropriate utilization of water resources is vital. Development and establishment of communities along rivers have made the safety against floods very significant. Therefore, dam operation management becomes vital and maneuvering of gates is the most important issue in this regard. Spillway gate operation policies to reduce flood losses and preservation of storage and safety of the dam are studied in this paper. In this regard, multi-stage operation methods are studied and analyzed. The fuzzy logic principles are used to optimize gate operation and overcome weak points of multistage operation method. Karun III dam is considered as a case study and the five stage flood routing policy followed by the fuzzy logic based operation of spillway gates of the reservoir during floods has been applied. The fuzzy logic results in smooth routed hydrographs rather than stepped ones. Eventually, verification of the proposed method has been done by a comparison with the results obtained by using the genetic algorithm to optimize gate operation assuming known inflow hydrographs. Results indicate that the proposed method is quite satisfactory.


Alexa.Gadget.SpeechData Interface
This interface sends your gadget speechmark data. Speechmarks are metadata that enable your gadget to synchronize speech with visual experiences. One example of an action that your gadget can take based on this data is to lip sync to Alexa's text-to-speech (TTS).
Supporting this interface
To support this interface, the gadget must respond to the Echo device's Discover directive with a Discover.Response event that includes the following entry in its array of Capabilities:
 "type": "AlexaInterface",
 "interface": "Alexa.Gadget.SpeechData",
 "version": "1.0",
 "configurations": {
 "supportedTypes": [
This interface includes one directive: Speechmarks, as described next.
Speechmarks directive
This directive provides speechmark data to your gadget. The.proto file contents are as follows:
message SpeechmarksDirectiveProto {
 Directive directive = 1;
 message Directive {
 alexaGadgetSpeechData.SpeechmarksDirectivePayloadProto payload = 2;
 header.DirectiveHeaderProto header = 1;
message DirectiveHeaderProto {
 string namespace = 1;
 string name = 2;
 string messageId = 3;
 string dialogRequestId = 4;
message SpeechmarksDirectivePayloadProto {
 repeated SpeechmarksData speechmarksData = 2;
 message SpeechmarksData {
 int32 startOffsetInMilliSeconds = 3;
 string type = 2;
 string value = 1;
 int32 playerOffsetInMilliseconds = 1;
The fields in this message are as follows:
Field Description Type
directive Contains a complete Speechmarks directive. Directive
The fields of the message are as follows:
Field Description Type
header Contains the header for this directive. DirectiveHeaderProto
payload Contains the payload for this directive. SpeechmarksDirectivePayloadProto
The fields of the message are as follows:
Field Description Type
namespace The namespace of this directive, which is Alexa.Gadget.SpeechData. string
name The name of this directive, which is Speechmarks. string
messageId An ID that uniquely defines an instance of this directive. This string can be empty. string
dialogRequestId A unique ID that correlates this directive with a specific voice interaction from a user. You can ignore this field. string
The fields of the message are as follows:
Field Description Type
speechmarksData An object that represents speechmark data. It specifies the type of data, values, and offset. SpeechmarksData
playerOffsetInMilliseconds Where the speech currently is in its stream, in milliseconds. int32
The fields of the message are as follows:
Field Description Type
type The type of speechmark data that this directive contains. Currently, the only possible value is "VISEME". Viseme is a mouth position that corresponds to a spoken sound. string
value The value of the speechmark. string
startOffsetInMilliSeconds The start offset of the value, in milliseconds.
To determine how to sync speechmark data to Alexa's speech, use startOffsetInMilliSeconds minus playerOffsetInMilliseconds.
For example, say your gadget receives the following viseme speechmark data at playerOffsetInMilliseconds = 7000:
value: "t", startOffsetInMilliSeconds: 3000
value: "a", startOffsetInMilliSeconds: 5000
value: "p", startOffsetInMilliSeconds: 9000
value: "e", startOffsetInMilliSeconds: 11000
Because playerOffsetInMilliseconds is 7000, your gadget should start considering the values at "p", and ignore the earlier values.
If playerOffsetInMilliseconds and startOffsetInMilliSeconds are both zero, the gadget should process the data immediately.

The exhibition Early American Guitars: The Instruments of C. F. Martin, on view through December 7, brings together more guitars by Christian Frederick Martin (1796–1873) than have ever been publicly exhibited before. Among the many treasures that can be seen in this exhibit is the earliest known guitar built by Martin. The instrument (above) was built around 1834, at which point Martin was working in his New York City workshop at 196 Hudson Street, an area of the city now known as Tribeca, near the Holland Tunnel. In that shop he repaired instruments, sold musical items that he imported from Germany, and both built and sold his own guitars.

Single parents in the UK are at greater risk of job insecurity as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, new research from Gingerbread and the Institute for Employment Studies (IES) has found.
As COVID-19 hit the UK in early 2020 single parents were less financially secure and on lower incomes than other family types, with mothers in coupled households earning almost twice as much per week as single mothers.
Nearly half (46%) of single parents worked in routine occupations compared to 26% of coupled parents. Routine occupations — also classed as semiand unskilled work — in retail, hotels and restaurants have been hit hard by the pandemic with lockdown closures causing many employers to cut hours and jobs.
Single parents are also twice as likely to have a zero hours contract as other family types which puts them at greater risk of job insecurity.
As many roles shifted to working from home during the first national lockdown, only 22% of single parents were able to move to remote working, compared to 35% of coupled parents, creating greater childcare challenges as schools and nurseries closed.

Some 30% of single parents were furloughed under the government's Job Retention scheme (30%) compared to 21% of parents in a partnership, further reflecting single parents' caring responsibilities and highlighting that they are more likely to work in sectors affected by lockdown. It is more likely that these sectors will experience further job losses as businesses in England are hit by the second lockdown, due to last until 2 December.
Single parents were twice as likely to have poor mental health, compared with other family types, both immediately before and in the early stages of the pandemic. Overall 51% of single parents reported having depression, bad nerves or anxiety, compared with 27% of coupled parents.
Single parents reported experienced an 'impossible balancing act', as they struggled with making "constant trade-offs" between their work and caring responsibilities.

Worries about job security, the ability to secure new work, uncertainty around work requirements and formal and informal childcare availability, have made planning for the future impossible for single parents with many respondents feeling that "the unique challenges facing them had not been sufficiently accounted for in policy and guidelines developed."
Single parent charity Gingerbread is calling on the government to do more to support single parents during the coronavirus pandemic. The charity is urging the government to change policy to help single parents to stay in work by allowing them to access the furlough scheme where they need to do so for their caring responsibilities such as when a child needs to isolate.
Gingerbread is also calling on the government to make the Test and Trace Isolation Grant available to parents on low incomes who cannot work when their children are sent home from childcare or school to self-isolate.

Laura Dewar, policy and research at Gingerbread, said: "Single parents have been hit hard by the COVID-19 Crisis. Our research has shown that during the previous Lockdown single parents faced 'an impossible balancing act'. As the sole breadwinner and carer single parents having a job is vital for their family income and the financial security of their children.
"The government must to do more to support single parent families as we start the second lockdown. Single parents must be better supported to stay in work, find new work or re-train."

Avaya Interactive Response
Reference Number: AA-01093 Views: 3741 0 Rating/ Voters

The LumenVox speech recognition software is compatible with the Avaya Interactive Response platform (for other platforms, including Voice Portal, see Working with Platforms). This is done via the MRCPv1 connection, so before you begin you will need to have the following installed:

 - A working Avaya IR platform that already has speech recognition enabled — you may refer to our more complete Avaya IR/LumenVox Application Notes for more information on this.
 -
 - The LumenVox MRCPv1 Server (see our installation instructions)
 -
 - The LumenVox Speech Engine and License Server. These may run on the same machine as the MRCPv1 Server or different machines. (See our installation and licensing instructions for Windows or Linux.)
 -

To configure Avaya, you will use the Web-based administration tools and choose the Administration setting under the Speech and DPR Administrator menu choice:

 1. Click the Assign New Recognition Type button.
 2.
 3. Set the Engine type to mrcp-ibm
 4.
 5. Fill in the settings as appropriate. Ensure that the IP Address points to the IP address of your MRCPv1 Server.
 6.
 7. Make sure that the Server Name is the MRCPv1 Server's IP address, with /media/recognizer on the end of it. So if your MRCPv1 Server were on a machine with the IP address of 10.0.0.1, your Server Name would be 10.0.0.1/media/recognizer
 8.
 9. Once the server is configured, you will need to assign services and applications to it as you would any other ASR server in Avaya. Again, for detailed instructions on this, refer to the Avaya IR/LumenVox Application Notes.

Once you have configured your Avaya IR machine to point to the MRCPv1 Server, you will need to make two changes to the LumenVox MRCP configuration file:

 1. The mrcp_server_ip must be set to the actual IP address, not the loopback. You cannot use 127.0.0.1 for this and must put in the actual IP address of the machine hosting the MRCPv1 Server.
 2.
 3. The resource_string must be set to media/recognizer and not left at the default recognizer.
 4.
 5. Optional: if your Speech Engine is running on a different server from the MRCPv1 Server, you must change sre_ip to the IP address of that machine.
 6.

Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
Mineral oil is an astonishingly versatile compound. This complex mixture forms the purest of all-natural oils. So pure, it is frequently used in biomedicine, cosmetics, and food processing. Mineral oil is known to have low thermal and electrical conductivity and a great lubricant, making it an excellent choice for industrial and electrical industries. Understanding the thermal conductivity of mineral oil is especially important when using it as an electrical insulator and heat transfer agent.
So, how does one measure the thermal conductivity of mineral oil? In this application sheet, we set out to measure the thermal properties of mineral oil at temperatures ranging from 0 to 100°C with the THW-L200 sensor and our Measurement Platform Versatile (MP-V).
A 20mL sample of Mineral Oil was measured for thermal conductivity (W/m·K), thermal diffusivity (mm²/s), and volumetric specific heat (MJ/m³K) using the Measurement Platform Versatile (MP-V) with the Transient Hot Wire (THW-L200) sensor. The MP-V with THW method measures the absolute thermophysical properties of liquids and phase change materials.
Petroleum companies derive mineral oil from fossilized organic matter found deep underground. After time at deficient oxygen levels, the biological matter turns into layers of oil and gas – this is how gasoline and kerosine are derived. When these products are refined to remove all impurities (heavy metals, nitrogen, aromatic compounds, etc.), you get the purest natural oils, mineral oil.
This highly refined petroleum product comprises a complex combination of hydrocarbons and alkanes. The chemical composition is variable and set by the manufacturer depending on the desired performance and properties. The colourless and odorless oil has applications in various industries (Table 1). While all mineral oil is refined, white mineral oil used in food and medical applications is purified to remove any ingredients that may damage health.
The thermophysical properties of mineral oil are the characteristics that describe how it behaves under different conditions of temperature, pressure, and flow. Some of these properties include density, thermal conductivity, and viscosity. As mentioned previously, specific properties may vary based on the composition set by the manufacturer. In general, mineral oil is known for having low density, insulative capabilities, and generally having higher viscosity than water.
Table 1. Different applications of mineral oil.
Featured in Table 1 are some of the many applications of mineral oil across various industries, including fabrication, lubrication, pesticides, cosmetics, food processing, and pharmaceuticals. Light mineral oil, deemed safe for consumption, is primarily used as a laxative for humans and animals. It is also commonly used in creams and ointments to hydrate dry skin and can even be a binding agent in food processing.
Less refined mineral oil is widely used for industrial applications with low thermal and electrical conductivity. Being nonconductive is a crucial component of coolants and thermal fluids in electrical systems. Mineral oil is a known lubricant frequently used in precision grinders and hydraulic systems. This complex compound has seemingly endless applications because of its favourable properties.
The MP-V is designed to test the absolute thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, specific heat, and thermal effusivity of solids, liquids, pastes and powders. The MP-V features a powerful combination of transient plane source (TPS, ISO 22007-2) and transient hot-wire (THW, ASTM D7896-19) methods with a variety of compatible sensors.
Transient methods share similar theories with differences specific to their primary design. The sensors are electrically connected to a power supply and sensing circuit. A current passes through the sensors and increases temperature, which is recorded over time. The heat generated is then diffused into the sample at a rate dependent on the thermal transport characteristics of the material.
The MP-V features the proprietary intelligent Transient Plane Source (iTPS) function designed for testing and analysis automation. iTPS requires only the sample name as user input, and each sample's appropriate sensor and test parameters are determined.
The Transient Hot Wire (THW-L200) sensor is one of the many sensors offered with Thermtests' Measurement Platform Versatile (MP-V). The THW-L200 sensor provides simple yet accurate measurements of liquids and phase change materials (PCMs) from 0.01 to 2 W/m·K via the transient hot wire method and has a temperature range of -50 to 200°C. This sensor can withstand 20 bar/300 psi of pressure and adheres to an internationally recognized testing standard by complying with ASTM D7896-19. All Thermtest THW sensors have 2% accuracy and 1% reproducibility of measurements, making them a highly accurate and precise instrument for measuring the thermal conductivity of fluids.
The THW sensor has a detect current setting that determines the appropriate amount of current to apply based on a test measurement. By reading the test measurement results, a current will be set that results in an optimal temperature rise of the sample during testing. The sensor can be easily inserted into the sample holder, which has a capacity of up to 20 mL of liquid.
For this experiment, the thermal properties of Fisher ChemicalTM Mineral Oil were measured with the Measurement Platform Versatile (MP-V) and the Transient Hot Wire (THW) method. Roughly 20mL of the sample was added to the provided sample holder to be measured. Optimal parameters were determined using the detect current setting to achieve appropriate temperature rise and accurate, repeatable results.
Table 4. Thermophysical measurements of Mineral Oil with THW-L sensor.
|Temperature (°C)||Thermal Conductivity (W/m·K)||Thermal Diffusivity (mm2/s)||Volumetric Specific Heat (MJ/m3K)|
Mineral oil is a widely applicable, highly refined petroleum product. Understanding the thermal conductivity of this pure, natural oil is crucial for its use in many industries. The MP-V THW method accurately and reliably measures the thermal conductivities of liquids and phase change materials. This accuracy is apparent from the minimal disparity between measured values and expected values of mineral oil. The THW-L200 sensor successfully measured the thermal conductivity of mineral oil within 2% of the expected literature values.

Implementing Checkpoints in an SSIS Package
Like any other application, an SSIS package can fail. Once the problem has been resolved, you'll usually restart the package, but if you implement SSIS checkpoints, then you have another option: you can restart from the point of failure.
A SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package can fail for many reasons. A data source might be offline, a server might go down, the network might be unavailable, or countless other problems might arise. Whatever the reason, the end result is the same-your SSIS package stops running.
In some cases, this might not be too big a deal; you can simply restart the package after the problem has been resolved and everything is back to normal. However, if your package is loading terabytes of data or performing numerous other operations, a failure can represent a significant hit on your schedule and resources.
One way to help protect against such a happening is to implement checkpoints in your SSIS package. Checkpoints let you restart a package from the point of failure. For instance, if your package fails after the retrieved data has been staged, you can rerun the package starting at the point of failure without having to retrieve and stage the data again. In other words, the package starts right where it left off. By using checkpoints, you can avoid having to repeat tasks that involve large files or reload or re-aggregate large amounts of data.
How Checkpoints Work
When you configure your SSIS package to use checkpoints, SSIS maintains a record of the control flow executables that have successfully run. In addition, SSIS records the current values of user-defined variables.
SSIS stores the checkpoint information in an XML file whose name and location you specify when you configure your package to use checkpoints. When the package runs, SSIS takes the following steps to implement checkpoints:
 1. Creates the XML file.
 2. Records the current values of user-defined variables.
 3. Records each executable that successfully runs.
 4. Takes one of the following two actions:
 - Saves the file if the package stops running on an executable configured to use checkpoints.
 - Deletes the file if the entire package runs successfully.
If you configure a package to use checkpoints and that package fails during execution, SSIS will reference the checkpoint file if you try to rerun the package. SSIS will first retrieve the current variable values as they existed prior to package failure and, based on the last successful executable to run, start running the package where it left off, that is, from the point of failure onward, assuming you've addressed the issue that caused the failure in the first place.
Configuring Checkpoints
To implement checkpoints in your package, you must configure several properties at the package level:
 - CheckpointFileName: Specifies the full path and filename of your checkpoint file.
 - CheckpointUsage: Specifies when to use checkpoints. The property supports the following three options:
 - Never: A checkpoint file is not used.
 - IfExists: A checkpoint file is used if one exists. This option is the one most commonly used if enabling checkpoints on a file.
 - Always: A checkpoint file must always be used. If a file doesn't exist, the package fails.
 - SaveCheckpoints: Specifies whether the package saves checkpoints. Set to True to enable checkpoints on the package.
After you've configure these three package properties, you must set the FailPackageOnFailure property to True on each container or task that should participate in the checkpoint process. An executable that is enabled to use checkpoints serves as a starting point should the package fail and you want to rerun it. For example, suppose you set the FailPackageOnFailure property to True on a Data Flow task. If the package fails on that task and you restart the package, the package will start there. However, if the package fails at a task for which the FailPackageOnFailure property is set to False, the XML file is not saved and checkpoints are not used when you restart the package.
You should consider carefully which executables to include in the checkpoint process. For example, a Foreach Loop container can make using checkpoints a challenge. If you configure the container itself to use checkpoints, SSIS has no way of knowing which tasks inside the container have already run at the time of failure. And if you configure the tasks within the container to use checkpoints, variable values are not always recorded properly in the XML file at the time of failure. For that reason, many SSIS developers recommend against using checkpoints for loop iterations.
You must also be careful using checkpoints when running parallel operations in which all operations must succeed or fail as a logical unit, such as when you have parallel data flows that must succeed or fail as a single operation. You could, of course, put everything within a Sequence container and configure the container to use checkpoints, but if the container then represents the bulk of the control flow, you've gained little advantage because most of the work will have to be repeated anyway. Only if there are subsequent tasks, and you configure checkpoints on those tasks, do you have anything to gain.
Ideally, if you plan to implement checkpoints in your package, you should take them into account when you design your package. For example, you might want to separate the part of the data flow that stages data from that which loads data so you can use checkpoints more effectively. Let's look at a simple example to demonstrate how this works.
Checkpoints in Action
To demonstrate how to use checkpoints, I created a basic SSIS package in SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS). Then I added the following two components:
 - OLE DB connection manager. The connection manager establishes a connection with the AdventureWorks2008R2 sample database on a local instance of SQL Server 2008 R2.
 - User-defined variable. I created an int variable named number and set the initial value to 1.
After I configured these two components, I added several tasks to the control flow, which are shown in Figure 1. The control flow, in theory, creates the People table, retrieves person data, sets the variable value, loads the person data, and then deletes the table. In reality, the package doesn't really retrieve or load data, but it contains enough tasks for the package to run successfully and be able to demonstrate how checkpoints work.
Figure 1: Setting up the control flow in an SSIS package
The first task I added is an Execute SQL task. The task uses the OLE DB connection manager to connect to the AdventureWorks2008R2 database. I added the following Transact-SQL code to the task in order to create the People table:
The next task in the control flow is a Data Flow task. Although I labeled the task to indicate that it retrieves person data, the task does nothing at all. If this were an actual package, the data flow would load the person data into a staging table or raw files. However, because checkpoints work only at the executable level, it doesn't matter whether we configure the data flow, just as long as we can control whether the task succeeds or fails when the package runs. More on that later.
Following the Data Flow task, I added a Script task. The task does nothing but modify the value of the number user-defined variable. When I configured the task's properties, I added number to the Script Task editor as a read/write variable. Then, to the Main method of the script itself, I inserted the following C# line of code:
As you can see, the code simply sets the value of the number variable to 2. Although this serves no functional purpose in the current package, it does let me verify whether the current variable value is being properly recorded in the checkpoint file.
After the Script task, I added another Data Flow task that supposedly loads the person data into the People table. Again, this is just a dummy task that takes no action, but it is an executable that can either succeed or fail when the package runs.
The final component I added to the control flow is another Execute SQL task. The task uses the following Transact-SQL code to drop the People table:
That's all there is to the package. It's simple, does very little, but provides everything we need to test checkpoints. If you were to run the package now, the package should run with no problem and each component should turn to green. So now let's set up the package to use checkpoints. The first step then is to configure the three package properties described earlier:
 - CheckpointFileName: I specified a path and filename for my checkpoint file.
 - CheckpointUsage: I selected the IfExists value.
 - SaveCheckpoints: I selected the True value.
Next, I set the FailPackageOnFailure property to True for the last three components in the control flow (the Script task, second Data Flow task, and second Execute SQL task). Now, if the package fails on any of these three components, the checkpoint file will be saved and will include a list of all the executables that had run successfully up to the point of failure.
Because I did not configure the first Data Flow task to use checkpoints, checkpoints will not be used if that task fails, and you have to run the package from the beginning. If your data retrieval and staging process includes a significant amount of data, you might consider breaking that component into separate data flows and then implementing checkpoints on the individual components, but you should do this only if you can separate the data into discrete units that do not have to succeed or fail as a whole.
If you were to run the package as we currently have it configured, all the tasks should still successfully execute. So we need to make the package fail on one of the three tasks configured to use checkpoints. The easiest way to

Cocoa is a city in Brevard County, Florida. The population was 17,140 at the 2010 United States Census. It is part of the Palm Bay–Melbourne–Titusville Metropolitan Statistical Area.
Several stories circulate among Cocoa old timers as to how the town got its name. One story says that the mail used to come by river boat and was placed in an empty tin box labeled Baker's Cocoa. The box was nailed to a piling in the river next to downtown. Additionally, an early hotel in the area, located on the Indian River lagoon, was named Cocoa House.The city was chartered in 1895.The population rose dramatically following the development of the space industry, quadrupling from 3,098 in 1940 to 12,244 in 1960. Cocoa and the surrounding area also became integrated with the tourist industry for the first time as thousands visited the area to witness the launches from Cape Canaveral.

Radiant power from the images of adjacent point sources will spill over into each other even though their separation is greater than the system resolution element. This spillover or system optical crosstalk can be troublesome if a point source of interest is in the vicinity of a much brighter point source. A method is presented for computation of the constituent of system optical crosstalk due to optical surface scatter. This analysis provides the scatter function at the image based on the scatter function for each surface and the surface position along the optical path.

Coordination and integration
Early childhood care and education is often the concern of several government sectors and usually these are education, social affairs and health. The multi-faceted nature of early childhood care and education gives rise to the challenge of effectively coordinating provision of policy development and implementation across the different sectors.
Coordination issues include coherent regulation, funding and staffing schemes and a common vision of care and education. Effective coordination must exist among sectors at both national and local level, and also between public and private establishments.
Cross-sectoral coordination is difficult, especially at the national level. It is one of the main challenges facing governments of both developed and developing countries trying to promote a holistic approach to early childhood. Responses vary and some countries have sought to remove the problem by integrating sectoral responsibilities into a single ministry.
Other countries divide sectoral responsibilities according to age range and services. For countries where the responsibility for early childhood is divided, policy and administration coherence are sought through coordination mechanisms (COMs). Generally, COMs are effective when they focus on a particular early childhood programme, target population or specific task but their role is limited in promoting a coherent overall policy and administrative framework across different sectors.

Students took part in workshops and activities, offered by educators of the Programa Arvorar Jovem, to reflect on their emotions and the challenges of being a teenager
From October 17 to 25, Middle and High School students participated in the Adolescer Project offered by educators of the Programa Arvorar Jovem. Students took part in workshops and activities to reflect on their emotions and the challenges of being a teenager, especially in these post-pandemic times.
Expanding young people's awareness of their role as protagonists of their own lives in a world that is in transformation is one of the primary purposes of the Arvorar Jovem Program. Inspired by the principles of the Bahá'í Faith, the Program seeks to align its educational work with the principles and values of the Faith. According to Faezeh Shaikhzadeh, educational psychologist and co-leader of the project, the main themes students learn include viewing adolescence as a time of transformation and understanding the importance of identifying and expressing one's emotions.
"As we work with different segments, we use specific tools adapted for each age group. However, even with these differences, many things in common permeate the entire periods of pre-adolescence and adolescence," comments Faezeh.
For João Antônio Gomes, in Grade 8, the workshops will help him in his daily life as a student and teenager. "My experience was positive! The workshop will help because we need to focus on our studies and look at the positive side, such as understanding that our effort will bring us a better life."
The lecture, "Adolescer: Developing Skills for Life," allowed parents to share their concerns with educators and receive guidance on how best to support their children during this challenging phase.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MAPA) published on Monday (3) in the Official Gazette, normative instruction establishing phytosanitary requirements for imports of fruit or nine countries propagating material. The measure is aimed at plum, cherry, sour cherry, peach, apricot and nectarine from Argentina, Chile, Spain, USA, Portugal, Turkey, Italy, Israel and Iran.
Thus, the charges should be accompanied by phytosanitary certificate attesting that the products are free of Plum Pox Virus plague. The inspection will be made in the loading destination. If the presence of the pest is detected, the fruit will be destroyed or denied. The purpose of the requirement is to prevent the entry of the disease in Brazil via international trade.
According to the director of the Department of Plant Protection Map, Marcus Vinicius Coelho, the Plum Pox Virus is one of the most devastating diseases of stone fruit production around the world, being responsible for high productivity reductions and quality of orchards.

Hospital Ownership and Financial Performance: A Quantitative Research Review
Yu-Chu Shen, Karen Eggleston, Joseph Lau, Christopher Schmid
NBER Working Paper No. 11662
We apply meta-analytic methods to conduct a quantitative review of the empirical literature since 1990 comparing financial performance of US for-profit, not-for-profit, and government-owned general acute hospitals. We find that the diverse results in the hospital ownership literature can be explained largely by differences in authors' underlying theoretical frameworks, assumptions about the functional form of the dependent variables, and model specifications. Weaker methods and functional forms tend to predict larger differences in financial performance between not-for-profits and for-profits. The combined estimates across studies suggest little difference in cost among all three types of hospital ownership, and that for-profit hospitals generate more revenue and greater profits than not-for-profit hospitals, although the difference is only of modest economic significance. There is little difference in revenue or profits between government and not-for-profit hospitals.

A research facility in green concrete
The state-of-the-art research facility of B130 at the Department of Civil Engineering of DTU – Technical University of Denmark will act as a framework for the department's research of materials as well as supporting a number of its core services. The building itself is part of the research project on green concrete, where, for the first time ever, a newly developed green concrete is used, saving up to 30 percent in CO₂ emissions.
The ambition of the building is to support interdisciplinary collaboration and to offer an attractive and stimulating universe for research and learning. Hence, the disposal of the project is based on securing a high degree of openness and transparency – both in relation to the surroundings, where the students and employees can include the outdoor areas for experiments, and within the building where one will be able to view the activities in the workshops and laboratories from the outside. Furthermore, the workshops and laboratories of B130 will consist of facilities that support research, teaching and innovation of building materials.
Together with B128 and B129, completed in 2018, B130 will create a sculptural and workshop inspired spatial whole.

Eton water harder than most
WATER in Eton continues to be "harder" and contain more selenium than prescribed by national guidelines.
Testing results from February, detailed in a Mackay Regional Council report, show between 10-12 micrograms of selenium in every litre of water in Eton.
The Australian Drinking Water Guidelines states the limit for selenium is 10 micrograms.
Selenium is widely distributed in the environment, is considered an essential part of the human diet and does not pose any health risks specific to children, infants or pregnant women.
However, exposure to high levels of selenium over a long period of time can lead to nail deformities, stomach upsets and a garlic odour to the breath.
The water in Eton also contains between 385mg and 420mg per litre of calcium carbonate, making water "harder", less palatable and increases scaling problems.
Water is considered "good quality" if the calcium carbonate level is between 60 and 200mg per litre.
The council has plans to provide water softening plants and will continue regular water monitoring in the area.

A Narrative Inquiry of Women in Administration: Their Voices Heard
MetadataShow full item record
This narrative study examined women's experiences in leadership positions in an educational setting in Southern Ontario. Semi-structured interviews with 4 women (2 principals and 2 vice principals) revealed 4 key themes: (a) considerations prior to entering into leadership and confidence instilled by others to continue on that path; (b) ongoing challenge of maintaining work−life balance; (c) others' perceptions of women in leadership positions; and (d) increasing number of women in leadership positions. The researcher used feminist standpoint theory to analyze data collected during interviews, which gave voice to the study's participants and shed some light on women's gendered experiences in leadership positions. Findings suggest that historical roots significantly influence society to continue with stereotypical gender roles, though some participants have overcome certain stereotypes. The literature review and participants' experiences suggest that women have made some progress throughout history yet society needs to remain vigilant while striving for gender equality.


Get Record Id and Object API Name in Lightning Web Component
Get Record Id and Object API Name in Lightning Web Component
Last Updated on July 10, 2022 by Rakesh Gupta
Big Idea or Enduring Question:
 - How do you access the Id of the current record, current object API Name, and component region's width when using the lightning web component?
Objectives:
After reading this blog, you'll be able to:
 - Access the current record Id in the lightning web component
 - Access the current object API name in the lightning web component
 - Access current recordId and object API name when using lightning web component in experience builder sites
 - Access the component's regions width when you add a component to a region on a page in the Lightning App Builder
 - and much more
In the past written a few articles on Lightning Web Component. Why not check them out while you are at it?!
 1. Check User Permissions for Logged-In User in Lightning Web Component
 2. Add Lightning Web Components in Mobile and Lightning Experience as Tabs
Business Use case
Janel Parrish is working as a Junior Developer at Gurukul on Cloud (GoC). Janel wants to learn how to access and display the current record Id, object API name, and the component's regions width when you add a component to a region on a page in the Lightning App Builder.
Access Record, Object Context and Component Width-Aware When Component Used on a Lightning Record Page
If a lightning web component with a recordId property is used on a Lightning record page, then the page sets recordId to the 18-character ID of the record. Create a public recordId property by declaring it using @api decorator.
If a lightning web component with an objectApiName property is used on a Lightning record page, then the page sets the API name of the object associated with the record being viewed. Create a public objectApiName property by declaring it using the @api decorator.
If a lightning web component with a flexipageRegionWidth property is used on a Lightning record page, then the page pass the region's width to the component. Create a public flexipageRegionWidth property by declaring it using @api decorator
@api flexipageRegionWidth;
Access Record, Object Context When Component Used in Experience Builder Sites
Unlike lightning record pages Experience Builder Sites do not automatically bind the recordId and objectApiName to the component's template.
To access the record Id of the current record you have to add recordId and objectApiName in an expression in the component's *.js-meta.xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<LightningComponentBundle xmlns="_URL_
 <apiVersion>55.0</apiVersion>
 <isExposed>true</isExposed>
 <targets>
 <target>lightningCommunity__Default</target>
 <target>lightning__RecordPage</target>
 </targets>
 <targetConfigs>
 <targetConfig targets="lightningCommunity__Default">
 <property
 name="recordId"
 type="String"
 label="Record Id"
 description="Pass the page's record id to the component variable"
 default="{!recordId}" />
 <property
 name="objectApiName"
 type="String"
 label="Object Name"
 description="Pass the page's object name to the component variable"
 default="{!objectApiName}" />
 </targetConfig>
 </targetConfigs>
</LightningComponentBundle>
Automation Champion Approach (I-do):
Now it's time to create a lightning web component to access the current Record Id, Object API Name, and Flexipage Region Width on a record page.
miscRecord.html
To reference a recordId, objectApiName, and flexipageRegionWidth in a template, use {property} syntax, which is the same syntax we use to reference any JavaScript property.
<template>
 <lightning-card title="Display Record ID and Object API Name">

Record ID: {recordId}

Object API Name: {objectApiName}

Component Region's Width: {flexipageRegionWidth}

 </lightning-card>
</template>
miscRecord.js
This sample JavaScript code uses the @api decorator to create a public recordId, objectApiName, and flexipageRegionWidth properties.
When the lightning web component is invoked in a record context in Lightning Experience or the mobile app, it will populate the value to public properties we define in the Javascript, as mentioned below
 1. The recordId is set to the 18-character ID of the record.
 2. The objectApiName is set to the API name of the object associated with the record.
 3. The flexipageRegionWidth property receives the width value of the region that the component resides in on the page.
import { LightningElement, api } from 'lwc';
export default class MiscRecord extends LightningElement {
 @api recordId;
 @api objectApiName;
 @api flexipageRegionWidth;
}
miscRecord.js-meta.xml
A lightning web component can be used to build custom pages for Lightning Experience and the Salesforce mobile app quickly with point-and-click tools. Make sure to add the right target for it.
This configuration file makes the component available for Lightning record page but restricts support on desktops
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<LightningComponentBundle xmlns="_URL_
 <apiVersion>55.0</apiVersion>
 <isExposed>true</isExposed>
 <targets>
 <target>lightning__RecordPage</target>
 </targets>
</LightningComponentBundle>

This paper reports the first electronic circuit used to measure MEMS resonator motion in the time domain. The measurement of shuttle position is made using a capacitance-to-voltage converter IC that has been developed by combining correlated double sampling with delta modulation in a fully differential circuit topology. This oversampling circuit may be adjusted to trade bandwidth (sample rate) for resolution, while reference level may be adjusted to set the desired sensitivity to accommodate a large range of capacitive sensor interface applications. For example, test results demonstrate a resolution of 170 aF for a signal bandwidth of 3 kHz, a 68-dB dynamic range, and nonlinearity less than 0.16%.
