Examples of Just Do It
Examples of Just Do It
Where does Just Do It come from?
The Just Do It video, also known as Shia LaBeouf's Intense Motivational Speech, was released in 2015. It shows actor Shia LaBeouf, of Nymphomaniac and Transformers fame, giving what is supposedly a motivational speech in front of a green screen. In it, LaBeouf repeatedly roars "Just do it!" at the camera while making wildly over-the-top, furious expressions and gestures. He also growls such lines as: "Don't let your dreams be dreams, yesterday you said tomorrow, so just do it!"
This video exploded in popularity almost as soon as it was released. There was some misconception that LaBeouf made the video as an earnest motivational speech, particularly given Shia LaBeouf's eccentric public persona. But, in actuality, LaBeouf's zealous performance was part of an art project.
The Just Do It video has its origins in Central Saint Martins, the London arts college, where LaBeouf joined in on a project called _TAG_. This project had each student in class write a short script for LaBeouf to perform, lasting no more than 100 words, with an emphasis on strong emotion. LaBeouf actually did thirty of these performances, some involving different stunts or props. Other pieces from the same set can be found online. The Just Do It segment that went viral was written by student Joshua Parker, who intended it as a mockery of the corporate health and fitness industry, specifically targeting one of its most famous slogans, Nike's Just Do It.
The green background is no accident; as many film students know, a green screen is used to superimposes backgrounds, special effects, props, and so on. Here, it allowed the London film students to edit in their own footage and use it as an introductory video for their projects. When the Just Do It clip went online, it was released under a Creative Commons license, specifically so that viewers could rework it however they pleased—which millions of people did do, and quite rapidly so.
Who uses Just Do It?
Though the Intense Motivational Speech spread virally in its original form, it became even more intense when internet users began taking advantage of the green screen provided.
Because a green screen allows editors to replace the background with anything they want, the original Just Do It clip has been reworked to depict Shia LaBeouf's speech in countless different scenarios. Videos have shown him giving the speech before massive crowds from archival film footage (e.g., Hitler's rallies), delivering it as a TED talk, or superimposed onto the Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer. There's even one version where he replaces Yoda in The Empire Strikes Back, with Shia telling a distressed Luke Skywalker to "Just do it!" and use the force.
There are also parody videos that show other people giving the same exaggerated speech in front of a green screen.

I've heard that Japanese is spoken by some Taiwanese people who were old enough to have lived during Japanese rule, along with some people who've learnt it for other reasons. For younger people, I've been told Mandarin or English would be the best means of communication, but I have a tendency to socialize a lot with retirees.
How similar is the Japanese spoken in Taiwan by native speakers to the Japanese used in Japan? Did the two diverge after 1945? Are words that entered Japanese after 1945 also used in the Japanese spoken in Taiwan?
share|improve this question
1 Answer 1
As far as I know, there is no difference, because Japanese is mainly used as a language to talk to people in Japan which is right close by, and to enjoy media and products from Japan. Japanese is still widely studied in Korea for the same reasons. Japanese textbooks in Taiwan seem to demonstrate an eagerness for fluency and avoiding confusion in business conversation.
Taiwan was under Japanese administration until 1945 and the language has not changed significantly since then.
On the other hand, the Japanese used in Hawaii and Brazil, among the lower-class immigrant Japanese communities there, may preserve some older forms. That immigration happened around 1900.
share|improve this answer
I have also heard that many of the immigrants to Hawai'i came from the south (or west, depending on how you look at it) of Japan, biasing the selection of dialects there. – Trevor Alexander Dec 30 '13 at 3:17

Detail map of Mare Imbrium's features. Montes Carpatus is marked "M".
Montes Carpatus is a mountain range that forms the southern edge of the Mare Imbrium on the Moon. The selenographic coordinates of this range are 14.5° N, 24.4° W, and the formation has an overall diameter of 361 km (224 mi). They were named [when? by whom?] after the Carpathian Mountains in Central Europe.
This rugged range generally stretches from west to east. The western end begins in the vicinity of the crater T. Mayer, although a few low ridges curve northwards towards Euler crater. At the eastern extreme is a wide gap where Mare Imbrium in the north joins Mare Insularum to the south. Starting at the east side of this gap are the Montes Apenninus, another mountainous range that curves up towards the northeast.
Most of this range consists of a series of peaks and rises, separated by valleys that have been penetrated by lava flows. None of the peaks have received individual names, unless one includes Mons Vinogradov to the west of the crater Euler. The surface to the north of the range is nearly level lunar mare, broken only by the occasional wrinkle ridge or minor impact crater.
The region south of the range is somewhat rougher, although still covered by lava flows. About 100 kilometers south of the mountains is the well-known ray crater Copernicus, and the irregular outer ramparts of this crater stretch almost to the foothills of the Carpatus range. Also of note is the smaller crater Gay-Lussac, which is attached to the southern part of the range.

SQ3 file extension - oml2-server database
What is sq3 file? How to open sq3 files?
File type specification:
Database file type icon Database file type
The sq3 file extension is used by oml2-server for its database files. A oml2-server (OML2 Server) is the daemon program for OML.
The OML2 Server seems to be obsolete product without support from developer, or producer.
The sq3 database format seems to be similar to SQLite.
This sq3 file type entry was marked as obsolete and no longer supported file format.
This type of file is no longer actively used and is most likely obsolete. This is typically the case for system files in old operating systems, file types from long discontinued software, or previous versions of certain file types (like documents, projects etc.) that were replaced in higher versions of their original programs.
Help how to open SQ3 files:
Try any SQLite database viewer to view content of *.sq3 files.
How to convert file with extension SQ3:
As far as we know, this .sq3 file type can't be converted to any other file format. This is usually the case of system, configuration, temporary, or data files containing data exclusive to only one software and used for its own purposes. Also some proprietary or closed file formats cannot be converted to more common file types in order to protect the intellectual property of the developer, which is for example the case of some DRM-protected multimedia files.

Why the Minutemen?
Prior to the late 1960s and early 1970s Massachusetts athletic teams were known as the Redmen, and before that squads were named the Aggies.
In the spring of 1972, a group of American Indians from New York wrote a letter to the school's administration asking them if they were aware of "defamatory" connotations of the word Redmen and if they would curtail the use of the word. One portion of the letter referred to "undesirable racial connotations of the Redmen nickname."
The administration replied to this letter by asking all campus personnel and media to refrain from the use of the word Redmen as much as possible. The Student Senate resolved that the nickname connoted a stereotype of violence and savagery and created a "false picture of American history."
The nickname, which began being used by the University with the 1972-73 academic year, has a historical and patriotic relationship with Massachusetts. It is a name that is uniquely linked with the Commonwealth.
As women's athletic programs evolved on campus in the 1970s, those teams became known as the Minutewomen.
Massachusetts Minutemen is a word combination with eye and ear appeal. The combination lodges quickly in the mind and falls easily from the lips.
Thus the name: The Massachusetts Minutemen.

Gilfield Baptist observes 150th anniversary
Published 9:58 am Friday, November 8, 2013
MERLE MONAHAN/CONTRIBUTING WRITER
IVOR—Gilfield Baptist Church, the oldest African-American church in Southampton County, will conclude the celebration of its 150th anniversary at 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 17, at the church.
The Rev. Ivan Harris of Denbigh Baptist Church in Newport News will bring the message immediately following dinner in the fellowship hall.
Organized just prior to the Civil War in 1863 by several descendants of slaves, the first service was held under a brush harbor, on the site where the current church now stands.
A history of the church states that the first members of Gilfield were members of Tucker Swamp Baptist, but wanted their own place of worship. A parcel of land owned by African-Americans William and Eliza Diggs near Ivor was offered for this purpose and Gilfield was organized.
Members of the new church began to hold prayer meetings at the site, where they eventually built a small church building. On May 9, 1873, William and Eliza Diggs donated this parcel of land to the trustees of Gilfield.
Through the years, the church has had only 10 pastors, starting with the Rev. Jordan Thomas, who served for four years. He was succeeded by the Rev. Ashley Lewis, who served seven years.
The Rev. Holland Powell became the next pastor, serving six years, then the Rev. Henry Madison, who served 12 years.
Madison's son, the Rev. Collin Madison, succeeded him and served 20 years. The Rev. Ralph Paige became the next pastor, serving three years.
The longest-serving leader of the church succeeded Paige. He was the Rev. George King, who was at the helm of Gilfield for 41 years.
Under King's guidance, the church continued to grow, according to the history.
From 1947 through 1952, a number of renovations took place, such as adding new floors, new restrooms and new heaters.
Also in 1952, a gift was presented to the congregation – an oil painting of the early church by Walter Cecil Rawls, a native of Ivor. Rawls, founder of Walter Cecil Rawls Library and an artist, said he was inspired to paint the picture because of his first vision of the church as a young boy.
"This church, standing on the hill in this grove of trees, was to me a beautiful place," Rawls said.
He also left $1,000 to the church at his death.
The Rev. Curtis Harris became the next pastor and served 33 years. He was followed by the Rev. Eustice Mitchell, who resigned after 10 years in 2008.
The church is led by the Rev. Kenneth Ricks, who worked along with Shirley Winnegan-Harris, anniversary chairman and co-chair, Gladys Ruffin in organizing the celebration.
"We had a banquet in May at the Tabernacle Christian Church in Suffolk to kick off the celebration," said Harris. "Oh, it was a grand occasion."
She said a plaque has also been hung inside the church naming those who supported the celebration.
"We're also working on a memorial booklet, like the ones we've done for several years before," Harris added.
Portia McClenny, 91, who attended the banquet, said she loves Gilfield and wouldn't miss the anniversary service.
"I've been a member for 73 years, having joined in 1940, right after my husband, Theodore, and I got married. He was a lifetime member and we were quite active in the church during the early years.
"In fact, all my children were baptized there."
McClenny added that she and her husband owned a large farm near Ivor, and traveled to Africa as missionaries from the church to teach the people how to farm.
The church mother said she has fond memories of the early days at Gilfield.
"I remember the huge revivals, when members of the church had to feed the preachers.
"I can't tell you how many meals I've cooked just for that purpose," McClenny said with a smile.
As the church grows, its activities increase. Harris, who is also church clerk, said services are held at Gilfield for the first four Sundays in the month and at one of several other churches on fifth Sunday.
"We have formed a fellowship with St. Luke's, First Baptist, New Branch and Beulah land. We alternate having services at one of these churches on every fifth Sunday," she said.
"We've had lean times and better times," Harris revealed. "But we are a dedicated group of people who want to hear God's word. And because of that, we work hard to keep our church up.
She said they recently borrowed more than $100,000 to make renovations. They expect to pay off the mortgage in December.
Not bad for the little "Church on the Hill at the Turn of the Road," a phrase used early on to identify Gilfield.

How much storage pressure in hydrogenation station
At present, the process flow mainly adopted in domestic hydrogenation stations is based on the storage and transportation of high-pressure gaseous hydrogen, which is mainly supplied by the station's long tube trailer. Process flow of high-pressure gaseous hydrogen storage and hydrogenation station for long tube trailer hydrogen supply.
The long tube trailer will transport 20MPa compressed hydrogen from the hydrogen production unit to the fixed station, and the hydrogen will be unloaded to the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank in the station through the compressor in the hydrogenation station. When the vehicle is hydrogenated, the hydrogen output from the long tube trailer or hydrogen storage tank will be filled into the on-board hydrogen storage bottle of the fuel cell vehicle through the hydrogenation machine.
hydrogen refueling station
At present, there are two pressure grades of vehicle hydrogen storage bottles widely used in the world: 35MPa and 70MPa. The highest design pressure level of hydrogenation station also needs to match the pressure level of on-board hydrogen storage of refueling vehicles. In addition to using long tube trailers as 20MPa mobile hydrogen storage facilities, the highest fixed hydrogen storage pressure in hydrogenation station of 35MPa hydrogen fuel cell vehicles is generally 45MPa. The highest fixed hydrogen storage pressure in the hydrogenation station of 70MPa hydrogen fuel cell vehicle is generally 90MPa.

In REST API, a resource is an abstract notion. When the client and the server communicate with each other, they exchange representations of resources.
The resource representation has the form of an XML document. For example, if you request information about a Veeam backup server connected to Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager, Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager will return a resource representation of the Veeam backup server resource similar to the following:
A resource representation is a document that holds all data you need to know about the resource and its behavior. Typically, a resource representation contains the following data on the resource:
- General information about the resource: name, ID, URL and type
- Information about other resources related to the resource
- Set of actions that can be performed with the resource (if applicable)
Information about related resources and actions available for the resource is presented in the form of links.
- Resource Representations for Non-Key Resources

Hi,
Is there any freely available program that would return the operation
count and memory requirements of a given C application (source code

Memory requirements of any program in a sufficiently powerful
programming language are generally impossible to predict, because of
Turing's "Halting Problem". Operation count has that problem, too, if
you meant 'count of operations performed', instead of 'count of
operations present in the source code'.

SHORT ANSWER:
If there is, it doesn't always work.
LONG ANSWER:
In general, it is impossible to determine the memory
requirements of a program without running it to completion.
Consider this simple (untested) program:
/*********************************************
Read an entire file from standard input and
write it out to standard output, in reverse.
*********************************************/
#include <stdio.h>
void
reverse(void)
{
 int c;
 c = getchar();
 if (c != EOF) {
 /* We haven't reached the end of input yet,
 so recursively call reverse() to get more.
 */
 reverse();
 }
 /* We've finished reading input and are now popping
 our way out of the recursive calls,
 producing output on the way.
 */
 putch(c);
Quote:
}
int
main(void)
{
 reverse();
 return (0);
Quote:
}
/********* end of example program *********/
How much memory does it require? Every function call
requires some storage (usually on a stack) for information
required to return to the caller (e.g., return address,
saved register values).
The reverse() function calls itself recursively, using a
little more memory with each call. There is no way to
tell from the source code how deep that recursion may
become, so there is no way to tell how much memory the
program will require.
Recursion isn't the only feature that can lead to
unpredictable memory requirements. Dynamic memory
allocation can too.
The memory requirements for this example program can be
stated as a linear function of the number of input
characters, but it is possible to create a program whose
behavior is not even predictable in that sense - a program
whose behavior can't be predicted even when its inputs are
known.
There is a famous theoretical problem in computer science
called "The Halting Problem":
 Given a program (including all its input data),
 figure out if it ever finishes running.
Sound easy? It turns out that _in_general_ it is
impossible - not just hard, _impossible_.
Of course, most real-world programs are special cases that
are deliberately designed to be sure that they do or don't
halt, according to requirements. (But how often do we see
a program in development unexpectedly contain an infinite
loop? We try to write software in well-lit clearings, but
the dark forest of intractability is all around,
and beasts of chaos lurk nearer than we ken.)
Even for programs that have predictable memory requirements
(many do), those requirements are implementation-specific.

How fast does a 12 year old run?
The height of the person in question, the specific length of the legs.
It also varies per location in the world.
How fast should a 13 year old be able to run?
The International Association of Athletics Federations recommends that 13-year-olds run no more than 10K at a time — approximately 6.2 miles. At a fast pace of six minutes per mile, this works out to just over 37 minutes, but at a slower pace of 11 minutes per mile, it works out to about an hour and eight minutes.

The world best for 11 year-old-boys is 4:23.9 (or is estimated to be this time). For girls: Regional-class is 6:45, national class is 5:55; world-class is 5:15 and the world-best for 11-year-girls of 4:42.9 (or is estimated to be this time). Run faster!
How fast should a 7th grader run a mile?
5:30 or less would be good for 7th grade, and 5:10 or less would be good for eighth grade. If you get sub 5 by the end of 8th grade, you would be really good. In my school, if you're in 8th grade and you get a mile time of around 5:15, you would probably be around 5th best out of the school.
How fast should a 14 year old run 100m?
Can a 12 year old run a half marathon?
About the age of 12 years, children can run a half-marathon. … First, kids' bodies aren't built to keep up an even pace over a long stretch, so the energy cost is more demanding than for an adult.
How fast should a 12 year old run 1500m?
At 12 years old, finishing a 1500m run is good as is, regardless of the time it takes. If you'd still like to keep track of time than I would say anywhere between 8–10 minutes would be great!
Who is the fastest 12 year old?
How fast can Bolt Run mph?
How fast can a girl run?
Who is the fastest kid in the world?
Is 7 minutes good for a mile?
A 7 minute mile time probably means you are somewhat fit, but it doesn't make you a great runner. … Mere seconds are extremely hard to shave off in seconds; a three minute difference is extremely long. So no, this is a good time, but it's not a great time.
Can humans run 100m under 9 seconds?
Overall, the sprinting velocity is a product of step length and step frequency. In his world record run in Berlin 2009, Usain Bolt ran at 12.4m/s in his fastest phase. … For a human to run 100m in under nine seconds, this would require maximum velocity to reach about 13.2m/s.

 1. Thank you Sarah, for the instructions on making a .bin file.
 Now please tell me/us why we would do that?
 What advantage is there to having a .bin file?
 Possible it might load faster but so what, a few seconds more to load doesn't seem like I want to do this.
 Thank you, I really appreciate your tutorials!

 - Another application is when one has few arduini to get the same program (ex : detect tft shield; detect I2C devices; according to the presnce of I2C devices, display the sensor -might be temperature in different rooms- ; if serial is avalaible, send it to the PC…) Having the same program is not that absurd on an Arduino Mega…. if it can handle gracefully the lack of sensors+screens, and cope with the existing ones…This makes software somewhat bigger, and compiling/linking can be felt too slow to be comfortable (remains "only" uploading : theoretically, detecting avrdudes option can make this last step almost automatic)

 2. Well, there is something people sometimes miss :
 can one generate an easy to read assembly file (to detect where pieces of code can be optimized, or, more likely, to get an idea of time spent servicing an IT or a time constrained part): this is rather easy with gcc (–save-temps ), of course with g++, whatever the cpu. But I feel the arduino IDE does hide this option, which may be useful when there are some time constraints (at least, to detect something cannot be done)

 3. I am using the ESP8266 implementation of the Homie Convention and this bin can be used by the built-in OTA for easy firmware upgrades over WiFi.

How To Recover Deleted Emails From Outlook And Thunderbird
Did your important email get accidently deleted? Fret not, since it can be easily recovered. Mail Cure is a free portable tool for Windows that can recover every deleted email from both MS Outlook and Thunderbird instantly. Unlike other tools, it scans for empty traces in the hard disk block by block to find deleted emails.
Just run the tool(no installation required) and select the drive you want to scan data for deleted emails.
data to scan for email
Once done, it will automatically begin scanning for the deleted emails. You can see the progress of the scan in the progress bar that is displayed on the top-right side. The number of emails retrieved are also shown in the progress bar.
scanning for deleted emails
One upside about this tool is that you can preview the recovered emails while the scan is still in progress. Once the scan is complete, you can export the emails in either txt or eml format. The eml format is widely used to import emails in Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, and other desktop email programs.
You can sort the emails by different ways such as sender, date, or subject. You can also search for any text in the emails by clicking Find button.
find email
It is a great email recovery tool, that is both portable, and simple-to-use. Enjoy!

Understanding the DynamoDB Sort Key Order
Learn what the UTF-8 order is and how to use it to your advantage
Understanding the DynamoDB Sort Key Order
Subscribe to my newsletter and never miss my upcoming articles
If you have been working with DynamoDB, you are probably quite familiar with the notion of Partition Keys and Sort Keys (aka PK and SK). You also know that Sort Keys are... well, sorted in ascending order by default. If your SK is of type Number the items will be sorted in numeric order (1, 3, 10, 50, 400), while if it's of type String they are sorted in "order of UTF-8 bytes". But what does that even mean and how does it affect the order of the items? Let's find out.
What is is
As per Wikipedia,
UTF-8 is a variable-width character encoding used for electronic communication [...] UTF-8 is capable of encoding all 1,112,064 valid character code points in Unicode using one to four one-byte (8-bit) code units.
What it means is that each and every character is assigned a specific byte, or code point, which have a numerical value.
It's that numerical value that DynamoDB uses to determine the order of your Sort Key.
If you want to know what character comes after which, a good start is to remember the order of the most common characters:
 1. numbers
 2. uppercase letters
 3. lowercase letters
Notice that letters are "grouped" by case (first the capital letters, and after that lowercase), which means that Zoey will come before alligator. This is really important to know if you want to avoid surprises later.
For a complete list of UTF-8 characters, including special ones, sorted by their bytes order, refer to this page.
How to use it to your advantage
Once you know how strings are being sorted, you can use that knowledge to your advantage. A very common practice with DynamoDB and single table design is to pre-join data by placing them into the same partition.
Depending on your access pattern, you might either want your parent item to be at the beginning, or at the end of the partition.
For example, if you have Orders (SK prefixed with ORDER#) and Order Items (SK prefixed with ITEM#), you will perhaps want the ORDER# item at the beginning of the partition, and the ITEM# items sorted by number, in ascending order after it. However, O comes after I, which means that ORDER# will be placed at the end of the partition.
You could scan the index backwards, sure, but then your items would be sorted in reversed order, breaking the access pattern.
How to fix that?
Use the UTF-8 sorting mechanism to your advantage! You need ORDER# to start with a character that comes before I to make sure it comes before ITEMS#. For that, you can use any character that comes before I. Any letter from A to H would work, but it might not be user friendly (for debugging and inspecting the data later) and could change the meaning of your prefix. Instead, it is usually most common to use special characters that come before A: for example #, $ or %. Let's use $ and rename ORDER# to $ORDER#.
Now the Order item is at the top of the partition and all items are sorted as expected. 🎉
Note that you can use the same trick in order to sort items in reversed order if necessary.
In the above example, you might want to scan the index in reverse order and get the latest vouchers at the top, in descending order. You can force the USER# item to be at the end of the partition by prefixing it with a character that is higher in the UTF-8 ranking. | or ~ are good examples.
Now, ~USER# is at the end of the partition and you can scan the index backwards.
In this article, you learned what is the UTF-8 bytes order, and how you can use it to your advantage in order to force the order of items in your DynamoDB partitions.

What is a squirrel midden?
Basically, a squirrel's favorite spot to eat. The squirrel midden is the mess of leftovers squirrels leave after eating.
Squirrel Midden or their Picnic Table
One favorite food of the red squirrel is the spruce cone. Sitting on their favorite branch, stump, or wherever, they pull the outside bits of the cone off, letting them fall to the ground below, and eat the seeds inside. The piles of left over spruce cone bits below are often easily found around a spruce forest floor. They can get pretty big, some reported as large as garages.
Squirrels also hide or store their food for the winter. They do not always remember where they have hidden some of the spruce cones. Often you will see holes around the midden where they may or may not have had a successful search. Some of the forgotten ones may grow into spruce trees.
Why store food? Red squirrels do not hibernate, they remain active through out the winter. The extra caches of food can come in handy when supplies are low during the cold months.

Check if a number can be written as sum of three consecutive integers in C++
C++Server Side ProgrammingProgramming
In this section we will see, whether a number can be represented as tree consecutive numbers or not. Suppose a number is 27. This can be represented as 8 + 9 + 10.
This can be solved in two different approach. The first approach is Naïve approach. In that approach, we have to check i + (i + 1) + (i + 2) is same as number or not. Another efficient approach is by checking whether the number is divisible by 3 or not. Suppose a number x can be represented by three consecutive 1s, then x = (y - 1) + y + (y + 1) = 3y. So the number must be divisible by 3.

The Queen Mother's teeth: Why were they so bad?
THE QUEEN MOTHER is one of the most famous Queens in British history, after she stood by her husband's side during his unexpected and difficult rise to the throne.
The Queen Mother was known as the Smiling Duchess, due to her strong character. However, her smiles have caused some to comment on her discoloured teeth in later life. So, why did they look this way?
Matthew Rose, our Restorative Dentist spoke to the Daily Express to give some insight into why this is the case and a look at historic Dentistry.

The provision of bursaries widens educational opportunities to children from a greater range of backgrounds, which enriches our community. As part of the legacy that our founder, William Lambe, worked so hard to achieve, we continue to value the importance of being inclusive and accessible to deserving children in the local area and beyond.
Bursaries are awarded according to financial need at the discretion of the Scholarship and Bursaries Committee and are reviewed annually. If applicable, the awarded percentage will be applied to tuition fees and boarding fees. Please note that our bursary provision does not cover transportation costs.
In addition to the School's standard bursary programme, applicants to the Sixth Form are able to apply for The Blyth Bursary, which was established through a generous legacy from an Old Suttonian family. This seeks to support a local, talented child whose family's financial circumstances would, under normal circumstances, preclude them from considering an education at Sutton Valence School; more information about this particular bursary can be found here.
Finally, any prospective pupils with a parent currently serving in the Armed Forces may also apply for a Forces Bursary, which is the equivalent of a 20 per cent discount applied to tuition and boarding fees (if applicable).
Bursary Application Process
To apply for a bursary, please follow the following steps:
- In order for us to consider a bursary application, the prospective pupil needs to be registered with the School first. To register, please click here.
- Once the prospective pupil has been registered, please request bursary application forms from the Bursar on 01622 845201. Please note that the earliest a bursary application can be received is nine months prior to the prospective pupil's start date at the School (i.e. applicants looking to join the School in September 2024 may apply for a bursary from January 2024 onwards).
For further information about any of the above bursary schemes or the application process, please do not hesitate to contact the Bursar.

Bernard Street Bridge
|Bernard Street Bridge|
|Location Map ( geo)|
|Crossings related to the A199|
The Bernard Street Bridge carries the primary A199 over the Water of Leith in Leith. The bridge appears to date from the 1960s, consisting of three shallow concrete arches across the river. The size of the structure is deceptive, with much of it hidden under the water level which is maintained at an unnaturally high level by lock gates. In the past the Water of Leith was tidal.
Looking at the bridge today, it seems hard to imagine that it carries a primary route, being lined with parked cars, and taxi ranks, where it may once have been S4. However, with a traffic signal controlled junction on the west side of the bridge, and a steady flow of traffic in each direction the bridge is still busy.
Somewhere in this area is the site of the first bridge at Leith, built by the church in 1496. The bridge was demolished in c1780, when the expansion of Leith as a Port was already underway, and the removal of the bridge presumably opened up more of the river banks for development as wharves.
Another bridge, known as the Lower Drawbridge (the Upper Drawbridge is now known as Sandport Place Bridge), stood a little to the north of the modern bridge, seemingly requiring traffic to dogleg at each end to continue along the main Bernard Street - Commercial Street thoroughfare. This bridge was demolished in 1910.
Undoubtedly there have been other bridges on this site, or near to it, in the missing years between the two bridges mentioned above. However, more research is required to discover where they were, when they were built and what they looked like. Undoubtedly most would have allowed ships or boats to pass through them.

Ceres: Operation Stolen Base
Ceres: Operation Stolen Base is a solitaire game depicting the actions of an elite Rebel task force attempting to seize the largest source of water in the Solar System shortly after the outbreak of the Free Mars Revolution. Your task force must defeat the Earth Federation ships in the area and seize the primary surface base. Four increasingly difficult missions must be completed to win the campaign game. Along the way, additional ships arrive and pods are constructed to increase strength and technological capabilities. A unique card system counts down the time remaining and provides challenges and opportunities at every orbit.
In this game the player takes command of a Rebel task force attempting to complete missions critical to securing the Ceres water base. Your success will ensure Mars and other colonies have a major source of water for survival and the Earth Federation will be forced to haul water up the deep and costly gravity well from Earth.
This game is set in the Free Mars universe and is a prequel to the Free Mars boxed game.

Module Bracket Erase
Module BracketErase
Program version BASIC 2D PRO 3D PRO LAB OMS
Availablility n/a n/a optional optional optional
The module Bracket Erase can be used to remove brackets and bands in a model scan. By removing these parts from the scan, you can create finishing aligners, splints or retainers, before the brackets are actually removed from the patient.
Ideally, a segmented scan of the patient from before the bracket treatment is used to replace the removed bracket geometry with the exact surface of the actual teeth of the patient.
First Steps
 1. Segment both the current scan with brackets as well as the initial malocclusion scan
 2. Open Bracket Erase module with the current scan
 3. Load the malocclusion scan as a reference scan
 4. Use automatic or manual bracket selection to define the geometry that should be replaced
 5. Select the option "Replace whole tooth" to remove bands
 6. Select the option "Show Refence" to see the fitting of the reference surface

In a data warehousing scenario, it's not rare to replicate data of a source table to multiple destination tables, sometimes it's even required to distribute data of a source table to two or more tables depending on some condition. For example splitting data based on location. So how we can achieve this with SSIS?
SSIS provides several built-in transformation tasks to achieve these kinds of goals and in this tip I am going to discuss two of them:
Multicast Transformation and
Conditional Split Transformation and how they differ from each other.
Sometimes it's required to have multiple logical copies of source data of a single source table either for applying different transformation logic on each set or having each dataset for separate consumers, Multicast transformation helps to do this.
In nutshell, a Multicast transformation is used to create/distribute exact copies of the source dataset to one or more destination datasets. In this example I am going to distribute data from [HumanResources].[Employee] table to [HumanResources].[Employee1] and [HumanResources].[Employee2] tables, please note that the multicast transformation distributes the whole set of data to all outputs, it means if the [HumanResources].[Employee] table has 290 records then both [HumanResources].[Employee1] and [HumanResources].[Employee2] tables will have 290 records each as well.
Before creating the package, lets create some work tables which we will be using in this demonstration. These commands will just create empty tables based on the [HumanResources].[Employee] table structure in the AdventureWorks database.
-- Script #1 - Create work tables for demonstration
SELECT * INTO [HumanResources].[Employee1] FROM [HumanResources].[Employee]
SELECT * INTO [HumanResources].[Employee2] FROM [HumanResources].[Employee]
SELECT * INTO [HumanResources].[MaleEmployee] FROM [HumanResources].[Employee]
SELECT * INTO [HumanResources].[FemaleEmployee] FROM [HumanResources].[Employee]
Launch SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio and create a new project.
Let's start with a "Data Flow Task". Double click on it to open the Dataflow Pane and then drag an OLE DB Source on the working area and configure as shown below.
Then drag a Multicast Transformation and OLE DB Destination from the Toolbox as shown below and connect the tasks using the green arrow of OLE DB Source to the Multicast and then from the Multicast to the OLE DB Destination as shown below. Next right click on the OLE DB Destination and specify the destination connection manager and destination table as shown below. Please check the "Keep Identity" property on the OLE DB Destination editor to preserve the identity value coming from the source table we are using in this example.
Next drag another OLE DB Destination from the Toolbox, drag another green arrow from the Multicast to the new OLE DB Destination as shown below. Next right click on the second OLE DB Destination and specify the destination connection manager and destination table. Please check the "Keep Identity" property for this one as well.
Once you are done with all these configuration, just hit F5 or click on the Play icon on the IDE, then you can see the execution of the package.
Please note the below image, from the source there are 290 records and both destination tables have 290 records written as well as they should.
Multicast transformation was introduced in SSIS 2005 and further enhanced and optimized in SSIS 2008 to use multithreading while writing data to multiple destination refer to this article.
Conditional Split Transformation
Conditional Split Transformation is used to categorize the incoming source data into multiple categories as per defined conditions. What I mean here is, very much like the SWITCH CASE statement of any programming language, the conditional split transformation tests each incoming row on those defined conditions and wherever it matches with any of them it directs the row to that destination.
For example, consider you have a customer table, you want data of this table to be categorized on the basis of Age into Juniors, Adults and Seniors, another example, which I will be demonstrating in this tip, is if you have an employee table and you want data to be divided into Male and Female based on the value in the Gender column.
Conditional split also provides a default output in the case that the incoming row does not match any of the defined conditions, the row goes to the default output. This default output is normally used to move erroneous rows to a separate table.
Let's create another package and drag a Data Flow Task. Double click on it to open the Data Flow pane, now drag an OLE DB Source on the working area and configure it like this.
Then drag a Conditional Split Transformation from the Toolbox, drag the tiny green arrow of the OLE DB Source to the Conditional Split Transformation and configure it like this.
Next drag an OLE DB Destination and then drag the tiny green arrow from the Conditional Split Transformation to the OLE DB Destination. At this point it will ask you the condition to use which you just setup in the previous step. For the first one I selected "Case Female" and then I setup my OLE DB Destination as shown below. Once you are done with this OLE DB Destination configuration for Female, you need to repeat the same process for another OLE DB Destination configuration for Male.
After this has been setup you can execute the package and it should look like the below image. As you can see out of the 290 source records 84 are related to female and moved to the FemaleEmployee table and 206 records are related to male and hence moved to the MaleEmployee table.
So finally, the basic difference between Multicast Transformation and Conditional Split transformation is that Multicast Transformation generates exact copies of the source data, it means each recipient will have same number of records as the source whereas the Conditional Split Transformation divides the source data on the basis of defined conditions and if no rows match with this defined conditions those rows are put on default output.
Once you are done with these practical exercises, you can dropped all the objects which we created for these demonstration with this cleanup code provided below:
-- Script #2 - Cleanup script for work tables we created
IF OBJECT_ID('AdventureWorks.HumanResources.Employee1') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [HumanResources].[Employee1]
IF OBJECT_ID('AdventureWorks.HumanResources.Employee2') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [HumanResources].[Employee2]
IF OBJECT_ID('AdventureWorks.HumanResources.MaleEmployee') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [HumanResources].[MaleEmployee]
IF OBJECT_ID('AdventureWorks.HumanResources.FemaleEmployee') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [HumanResources].[FemaleEmployee]


text: The nutrient intakes and circulating vitamin levels of 32 patients with rheumatoid arthritis who were treated with methotrexate were evaluated over a 6-month period. Dietary data were obtained and blood was drawn prior to the initiation of and following 12 and 24 weeks of methotrexate therapy. More than 50% of the patients had food intakes providing less than 67% of the recommended dietary allowance for zinc, vitamin E, folic acid, pyridoxine, and magnesium. Patients 51 years or older had better nutrient intakes than patients less than 51 years. Of the patients, 22% consumed vitamin supplements at the time they were recruited for the study. Mean circulating vitamin levels measured over the 6-month period were within normal limits. Our findings agree with previously published reports that patients with rheumatoid arthritis particularly the subpopulation taking methotrexate, consume diets that are marginal in some nutrients. Additional research needs to be done to identify more sensitive nutrient assays and to establish more definitively the nutrient needs of patients with rheumatoid arthritis taking several therapeutic agents.

St. Ursula Academy invested in its fine and performing arts curriculum by adding a state-of-the-art piano lab, which can be used by students in grades 6-12 for a variety of music-related courses. The piano lab follows last year's addition of a Black Box Theater to also enhance the performing arts curriculum.
The lab is made up of 11 Yamaha Digital Pianos (10 for students, one for a teacher) controlled by an LC4 Lab Controller System. The LC4 system connects all pianos through headsets, which allows students to work individually, in pairs, or in groups. This setup is identical to that offered in university music departments and select high schools around the country. In addition to teaching music and techniques at the piano, the goal of the piano lab is to instill music fundamentals that students may apply to any area of music.
Features of the pianos include 88 weighted keys, with a touch similar to an acoustic piano, as well as the ability to change instrument sounds. For example, students can play 10 different parts of a musical composition, each with a different "instrument." Music faculty member Kristina Perna said, "Often, I'll have students play in ensembles and choose an 'intelligent' instrumentation. For example, we might structure the lesson such that lower sounds might be a cello or trombone, while higher sounds could be a flute or violin."
The Collegiate Block schedule at SUA—where students have four 80-minute classes each semester—allows time for students to learn a subject in more depth. The piano class taught in the lab is a perfect example of a curriculum that needs the extra time for students to learn and practice to master the material.

Your laptop is running out of storage space, or you want to store the data from your phone on your computer, so you want to use a microSD card to store some of your files, but you don't want to spend the money on a new Micro SD card adapter. So, what's the solution? Can you insert a micro SD card into your laptop without an adapter?
Yes, you can. There are some simple and easy-to-follow ways that you can try to connect your micro SD card to your laptop without an adapter. But many people are not aware of these methods.
So, we have decided to write an article on how to insert micro SD card in laptop without an adapter using some easy methods.
Before we get into the main topic, let us first understand what a micro SD card is. If you are not interested in the technical details, you can skip this section and jump directly to the methods.
An SD (Secure Digital) card is a small removable memory card used to store data. SD cards are mostly used in digital cameras, camcorders, handheld computers, and mobile phones. They are also used in some video game consoles.
Micro SD cards are even smaller versions of the SD card. They are about the size of a fingernail. Micro SD cards are mainly used in mobile phones and other small electronic devices.
However, one of the main problems with micro SD cards is that they are very delicate and can be easily damaged if not handled properly. Moreover, most laptops do not have a built-in micro SD card reader; thus, an adapter is required to connect the micro SD card to the laptop.
Methods to insert micro sd card in laptop without an adapter
There are two simple yet effective ways of connecting a micro SD card to your laptop without an adapter. These methods are:
1. Use the micro SD card slot on your laptop
If your laptop has a built-in micro SD card slot, then you can directly insert the micro SD card into the slot and start using it without an adapter. This is the simplest way of connecting a micro SD card to your laptop. Follow the steps given below to insert the micro SD card into the slot:
Step 1: First of all, make sure that your laptop is turned off.
Step 2: Now, take out the micro SD card from your mobile phone or any other device.
Step 3: Look for the micro SD card slot on your laptop. It is generally located on the side of the laptop.
Step 4: Now, gently insert the micro SD card into the slot. Make sure that you insert it in the correct orientation.
Step 5: Once the micro SD card is inserted, turn on your laptop and wait for it to boot up.
Step 6: Now, go to "My Computer" or "This PC", and you will see the micro SD card appearing as a separate drive.
Step 7: You can now access the files stored on the micro SD card and copy or move them to your laptop's hard drive.
2. Use your smartphone as a micro SD card reader
If your laptop doesn't have a built-in micro SD card slot, you can use your smartphone as a micro SD card reader. This might sound surprising, but it is actually very simple and easy to do.
Almost all smartphones come with a built-in micro SD card slot which can be used to connect the micro SD card to the laptop. For this process, all you need is a smartphone and a USB cable.
Follow the steps given below to use your smartphone as a micro SD card reader:
Step 1: First of all, insert the micro SD card into the slot on your smartphone.
Step 2: Now, connect your smartphone to your laptop using a USB cable.
Step 3: You will see a pop-up message on your smartphone asking you to select the USB connection type. Select "File Transfer" or "PTP" as the connection type.
Step 4: Now, go to "My Computer" or "This PC" on your laptop, and you will see your smartphone appearing as a separate drive.
Step 5: Double-click on the smartphone drive, and you will see the contents of your micro SD card.
Step 6: You can now access the files stored on the micro SD card and copy or move them to your laptop's hard drive.
Laptop users often need to use a micro SD card reader in order to access the files stored on a micro SD card. However, not all have the adapter required to connect the micro SD card to the laptop.
Like so many other users, if you are also in a similar situation and wondering how to insert micro SD card in laptop without an adapter, you can use the methods given in this article. These methods are very simple and easy to follow. Try them out and see which one works best for you.
Hopefully, this article was helpful and informative. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to leave them in the comments below.
Thanks for being with us 🙂

As I'm trying to read through Readwithtajweed, I am confused about the meaning of harakat / count, in regards to Madd.
What is 1 (or 2,3, etc.) count? I've read that it is equivalent to seconds (1 count = 1 second). Are count durations relative to the speed with which I read, like beat/rhythm in music?

Part Luck, Part Brains. All Fun
Quizbola is a party game that combines two different but highly enjoyable activities in one terrific experience. One of them is quizzing, the other is Tambola, a game of chance, also known as Housie or Lotto
What is Tambola?
Tambola, also known as Bingo, Housie or Lotto, is a game of luck or chance. Each player is given a Ticket printed with a unique set of 15 random numbers (from 1 to 90) arranged in 3 rows of 5 numbers each. One person is appointed as the host for the game. The host has a set of 90 chips, each with a number on it. Numbers are from 1 to 90. The host picks out a chip from a bag that contains 90 chips and calls it out to the player. If the number that is called out by the host is in the participant's set of 15 numbers, the player crosses it out. The host then takes out another chip and calls out the number on it. This is repeated till one of the player crosses out all the 15 numbers on his Ticket and stakes his claim to the winnings.
Winning a game of tambola is based purely on luck.
What is Quizbola?
In Quizbola, instead of random numbers, the ticket contains answers to quiz questions. These are arranged in 3 rows of 5 answers or 15 answers on a ticket. The questions to these answers are printed on "Q-Cards", one Q-Card for one question. The host picks out a Q-Card at random and reads it aloud to the participants. The host does not reveal the answer.
Let's say the question on the Q-Card is "Who invented the electric bulb?" The correct answer is "Thomas Edison".
If the participant knows the correct answer, that is, Thomas Edison and that answer is on his ticket, he crosses out the answer (see photo of Quizbola Ticket with Answers)
The first participant to cross out all the 15 answers is eligible to stake a claim to the winnings.
The Quizbola Twist!
But here's where things get interesting. There are four possibilities:
 - The participant knows the answer to the question and the answer is on his ticket. He promptly crosses out the answer. He has knowledge and luck on his side!
 - The participant knows the answer to the question, but the answer is not on his ticket. He has knowledge but no luck!
 - The participant erroneously crosses out a wrong answer, thinking that it's the right answer. He has neither knowledge nor luck on his side. If he stakes a claim to the winnings based on his answer, his claim will be denied!
 - The participant does now know the answer to the question but the answer is on his ticket. He does not cross out the answer. Again, he has neither luck nor knowledge on his side.
The first person to cross out all 15 answers stakes his claim to the winnings. If he has correctly crossed out all the right answers, he gets the spoils. However, it may well be that some of his answers were mistakenly crossed out! In this case his ticket is forfeited and he has to exit from that round of the game.
How Many Players can play?
Quizbola can be played with 6 people or more. A host is selected at the beginning of a session. The host does not play the game.
Before the beginning of the game, the group fixes a price for a Ticket. Players are free to purchase as many Tickets as they like. The total money collected from the sale of Tickets is then used to set the prize money. Depending on the group, non-cash gifts purchased from the money collected can be used instead of cash prizes.
The group can decide to have either one grand prize or several prizes. For example, a prize for the first person who crosses out 5 correct answers, or a prize for the first person who crosses out all correct answers in a single row. There are many possibilities
Preparation and Materials
 - Q-Cards. These are either sheets of paper – like cue cards used by presenters - on which is printed a numbered question (see photo Quizbola Q Card). They can be either printed or created digitally as a power point slide for instance, and flashed on a on a computer screen for all participants to see. Questions can be chosen from a set theme, such as movies, famous personalities or historical events, or from a mix of different themes. The type of questions and the degree of difficulty can be tailored according to the interests and level of general knowledge of the group. Ninety Q-Cards are needed for one game. Once a question is asked the host checks it out in the master list (see Photo Master List), to indicate that it has been "used".
 - Q-Card Box – This is box with a lid that will hold Q-cards. The host will dip into the box and take out a Q-card and read it aloud.
 - Used Card Box. This is a box to dump those Q cards that have been read. This will prevent any Q-Card to be accidentally re-used
 - Answer Tickets.These are rectangular slips of paper with 15 boxes (see photo Quizbola Answer Ticket). Each box contains the answer to one question. No two Tickets should have the same set of 15 answers.
 - Master List: This is a list of all the 90 questions and their answers. As the host asks a question, that question is checked out in the list. This list is used to verify claims staked by the participants.
 - Computer and a Projector with screen (only in case Digital Q cards are used)
How was Quizbola born….
The idea of Quizbola came to me on lazy afternoon. As a member of the executive committee of my business school alumni association, I was asked to organize an interesting game for an alumni get together.
I knew that this audience would love a cerebral challenge. After all these were sharp, highly successful managers, many of them engineers, in addition to being MBAs. But a simple quiz session would be too boring. I wanted to add a twist to it.
As I was thinking about it, I asked myself a question, Wouldn't it be great if I could come up with a quiz where to win, participants would not only need brains but also luck? Something that would add the thrill of a game of chance to a brain teaser?
Then it stuck me. What if I use the format of Bingo or Tambola, and simply replace the numbers by answers? Thus was born Quizbola! I put together a list of questions. Did some programing in excel to create the tickets. (Yes, it does take some doing to ensure that each answer sheet has a unique set of 15 answers!). and by the evening I was ready with a brand new party game!
Needless to say, it was a big hit. Folks were wondering where I got the idea from!

text: With the research background of the rotorcraft flying robot's integrated navigation system, an error calibration method for electric magnetic compass is proposed. Based on the analysis of the magnetic compass's measurement theory and error sources, 5 main factors which affect the heading angle calculation precision of the magnetic compass, are summarized. In response to the mentioned error factors, software and hardware solutions are proposed. Considering the specialties of rotorcraft flying robot, a simplified calibration method for magnetic compass is proposed to calibrate the hard magnetism errors and scale factor errors. The simplified magnetic compass calibration method can avoid sticking up the robot during calibration process, but its calibration precision is not decreased. The actual calibration test of the magnetic compass shows that the proposed calibration method can effectively correct the measurements' ellipsoidal distribution of the original magnetic field, and it also can improve the heading angle calculation precision of integrated navigation system. This method can simplify the calibration process and avoid to stick up the huge robot.

How It Works
The Idle Free Work Truck No Idle Heat System™ includes a coolant heater and Engine Start Module (ESM) to provide engine heat, interior (cab) heat, and 12 volt electrical power for all work truck power needs. This system removes the need to start the engine with truck batteries. Engine starting is handled using the ESM. An ESM is similar to an ultracapacitor in that the module is charged by receiving electrons from the batteries attached to it or the alternator connected to it via the trucks batteries.
- Engine Start Module (also known as an ultracapacitor)
- The system uses the ESM instead of batteries to start a truck which allows the truck's battery type to change from starter batteries to deep cycle batteries.
- A change to deep cycle batteries (no engine starting) matches the current trend/need of the batteries regarding engine off periods including idle elimination.
- If the engine start needs are removed from the battery bank, the remaining batteries can be combined to perform all truck DC power needs.
- When the Idle Free Work Truck No Idle Heat System™ is turned on, power is supplied from the truck's battery to all necessary circuits to run the climate control.
- The climate control functions for the cab are used in the same manner they would be if the engine were running.
- The climate control functions (temperature-fan-mode) without needing to run the truck's engine.
Installation & Operations
Installation of the system, which typically takes only three hours, actually decreases the overall weight of the truck by about 35 pounds. With this system design, Idle Free eliminates the need for dedicated enclosures for any of the system components, making for a simple, clean, easy installation.
- System installation is typically 3 hours and requires a cable change, heater mounting, harness installation, fuel pump installation, engine coolant connections and toggle switch installation
- No need for a dedicated enclosure—engine start module fits into any truck battery box that currently contains more than a single group 31 battery
- Uses the current truck infrastructure with no integration into the trucks wiring
- Simple to operate with a flip of a toggle switch installed in the cab


text: The present paper aims to identify ways to reduce pollution injected by residents in the urban wastewater network system. Two approaches are considered. The first one uses flow and pollutant calculation to test whether a polluter can easily be identified in a neighborhood. The second approach uses a survey to examine what incentive would be most effective to influence residents' behavior. Hydrodynamic simulation results show that concentration profiles at the network outlet corresponding to all possible polluters are similar and thus do not point out specific resident source of pollution. Household-level survey results show that most socio-economic and public-good-related characteristics do not play a significant role in explaining choices to discard in the home wastewater network. Apart from the nature of the waste itself, by far the belief that the respondent has about neighbors' and relatives' discarding behavior is the main driver of the choice.

The Latest Trend In Sand
Introduction: What is Polymeric Sand and How Does it Differ from Aquatic Soil?
Polymeric sand is a type of sand that is derived from the ground and has been processed to have a polymeric structure. This type of sand has been used in construction projects such as building dams, bridges, and other structures.
Aquatic soil, on the other hand, is a type of soil that can be found in bodies of water such as lakes, rivers, seas, and oceans. Aquatic soil typically consists of clay particles with organic matter in it.
Why Polymeric Sand?
Polymeric sand is a material that is made of polymer and sand. It is used in many different industries like construction, manufacturing, and engineering.
Polymeric sand has unique features that make it an excellent material for many applications. One of the most important features of polymeric sand is its ability to absorb water and air which makes it a convenient material for use on construction sites. The benefits of using polymeric sand are numerous because it can be used for many different things like absorbing water, providing traction, increasing load-bearing capacity, increasing the safety of structures, etc. Polymeric sand is very versatile and can be used for building and construction projects as well. It can be formulated in various colors, weights, types of grains, shapes, etc. Polymeric sand's primary uses are its ability to act as a filtering medium for contaminated or non-potable water, and its ability to support the weight of workers on a construction site. It is also used as a general-purpose shielding agent, as well as an abrasive material. It is commonly used in construction sites because it can be easily mixed with other cementitious and construction materials to form a solid mixture.
Why You Should Be Using Polymeric Sand for Future Projects
Polymeric sand is a type of sand that contains a polymer. It can be used for many different purposes, such as, but not limited to, concrete and mortar.
Polymeric sand is made from recycled materials and can be reused for many projects. It's also environmentally friendly and recyclable.
Polymeric sand has been used in the construction industry for decades now because it's lighter than normal concrete or mortar. That makes it easier to transport and less time-consuming to work with.
How to Choose the Best Shape and Size for Your Project
Polymeric sand is a type of sand that is used in polymer clay. The best shape and size for a project are determined by the project's needs. The polymer clay shapes and sizes can be found in the polymer clay makeup chart.
The best shape and size for a project depends on the specific needs of the project. For example, if you are making a piece of jewelry, you should use a molding tool with small round balls. However, if you are making something like an ornament or wall art, you should use a molding tool with larger round balls.
What to Avoid When Working with Polymer Sand
Some of the most common mistakes that people make when working with polymer sands are:
1. Mixing sands in the wrong order
2. Using too much water for mixing
3. Not using enough sand for mixing
4. Not wearing gloves when handling polymer sand
5. Mixing polymer sands too much
6. Not using proper ventilation
7. Working with polymer sands while they are still wet
8. Not wearing heavy-duty gloves when working with polymer sand

Soy Bean Residue Dryer Overview
Soy Bean Residue Dryer Introduction
Soy bean reasidue, the by-product during producing soymilk or tofu, is a kind of material with big water and oil combining performance. After being processed, it has the following advantages: fresh bean dregs' water content is about 90%, its nutritional ingredient is higher than many inferior dregs; the crude protein content is high, especially in hot summer and high temperature, it is easily rotted and mildewed. Dry bean dregs' crude protein content is three times higher than that of the unhulled rice. It is suitable for nutrition feed for pig, chicken, duck, etc.
Soy Bean Residue Dryer Working Principle
Soy bean residue dryer is mainly consisted of the heat source (hot blast stove or gas producer furnace), material feeder(beater), rotary drying roller, discharger, induced draft fan, driving device, unloader and power distribution cabinet. After certain degree of dehydration and scattering, wet bean dregs enters into the drying roller through material feeder. Under the stirring of the lifting plates and shoveling plates that distribute evenly inside the roller, the bean dregs scatters evenly and contacts with hot air sufficiently in drying area. This speeds up the drying heat transfer and mass transfer. Wet air is pumped by air-inducing device, which avoids material from being wet again.
Soy Bean Residue Dryer Advantages
1. Excellent and simple structure, materials pass through the cylinder resistance, stable operation..
2. Good product drying uniformity, bright and shining color, nutrients material remains the same.
3. Little failure, low maintenance fee, low power consumption.
4. Bean dregs dryer production line introduces special scattering device, which makes sure the drying effect of the dryer.
5. The whole drying system uses electric centralized control, which is of automatic controlled hot air temperature, high automation degree and convenient operation.
6. The overall system sealing is good, and equipped with perfect dust removal equipment, no dust overflow, thus having a good operating environment.


Wearable sensor-based human activity recognition from environmental background sounds
Original Research

Zhan, Y. & Kuroda, T. J Ambient Intell Human Comput (2014) 5: 77. doi:10.1007/s12652-_PHONE_-2
Abstract
Understanding individual's activities, social interaction, and group dynamics of a certain society is one of fundamental problems that the social and community intelligence (SCI) research faces. Environmental background sound is a rich information source for identifying individual and social behaviors. Therefore, many power-aware wearable devices with sound recognition function are widely used to trace and understand human activities. The design of these sound recognition algorithms has two major challenges: limited computation resources and a strict power consumption requirement. In this paper, a new method for recognizing environmental background sounds with a power-aware wearable sensor is presented. By employing a novel low calculation one-dimensional (1-D) Haar-like sound feature with hidden Markov model (HMM) classification, this method can achieve high recognition accuracy while still meeting the wearable sensor's power requirement. Our experimental results indicate an average recognition accuracy of 96.9 % has been achieved when testing with 22 typical environmental sounds related to personal and social activities. It outperforms other commonly used sound recognition algorithms in terms of both accuracy and power consumption. This is very helpful and promising for future integration with other sensor(s) to provide more trustworthy activity recognition results for the SCI system.

Create a simple authentication used by a smartphone app with a cakephp webservice
Everybody is using smartphones to get there information on the go. To provide the necessary information there a several ways to do so, e.g.:
 - your usual web page
 - your usual web page with a special mobile layout
 - a native smartphone app retrieving its information via a provided web service.
In this post i take a closer look at the last point in a very simple way, which gives you an idea of how things can work and you can play around with.
For this simple approach the smartphone app needs to be able to store data on the device.
This is how the entire process works in my case:
The already registered User logs in via his smartphone app, which will send the username and password via post request to an url.
All the authentification happens on the website, so there will be no encryption done on the mobile device, which means there is no extra work to be done, when some thing on the webservice needs to be changed.
if username and password are correct the website will generate a token, saves it and send a response with either false or an array with the token and the encrypted password (i used the already encrypted password from database) that needs to be saved in the app.
From now on, the web service expects those values on every request and authenticates this device and therefor the user.
As long as this token is sent the app will be authenticated and on every login the token will be renwed for this user, which means that a login from another device will delete the current token and writes a new one that will be different. That means, that only one device can be logged in at the same time.
I started with a controller, that provides all necessary methods and will respond to a GET request with a JSON response.
I used the great and new CakeResponse (like shown in a previous post), which is the easiest way to answer the request without any special Views or echo responses from the controller.
Here is some example code which is used to get a forum thread by its database id. All other requests are pretty much straight forward like this one and keeping all logic on the webservices side.
public function thread($id = null) {
$data = array();
$data['Thread'] = $this->Forum->getThreadById($id);
return new CakeResponse(array('body' => json_encode($data, JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK)));
}
To this this point everything is pretty much basic stuff and i also assume you already have an Users table in your database with a username and an encrypted password.
I added a column "token" (varchar), "mobile_login" (datetime) and "android_registration_id" (varchar) into the Users table, this is where we store the hash thats authenticates the smartphone app at the web service.
You could use the "mobile_login"-date to check back on a regularly base and renew the token, if you see the need to do so.
The "android_registration_id" is used to save the google account id, which is used to send push messages through the website on the users phone, e.g. to send notifications if the user receives a a messages or something similar.
Therefore this is more on the surface of the subject, i think there will be more detailed posts about in the near future and i will be happy to get your suggestions how to improve or extend this approach.

Facts about Highlands
The community was named Highlands because the east bank of the San Jacinto River, where Highlands is located, has a higher elevation than the west bank of the river. By 1908 Highlands became a station on the Beaumont, Sour Lake and Western Railway. A post office opened in 1929. Highlands incorporated in 1930, but its charter was voided, leaving Highlands as unincorporated again. In the 1930s Highlands had 20 businesses and its population decreased from 350 to 200. The 1936 Harris County highway map indicated two churches, a factory, a school, and a sawmill in Highlands. Highlands housed military members and war plant personnel during World War II. By 1948 Highlands had 3,000 residents and 75 businesses. In the 1950s local business decreased and the population decreased to 2,723. A 1956 attempt for Highlands to incorporate did not pass. In the 1960s Highlands had a canning sales company and an industrial chemical company. In the early 1960s Highlands had 4,336 residents and 82 businesses. In 1965 W. O. Hutson built the Double Trouble Youth Rodeo Arena. In the early 1970s Highlands had 3,462 residents and 66 businesses. By 1977 Highlands had 5,000 residents; in 1989 Highlands reported the same population. In 1990 Highlands had an estimated population of 6,632.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 6.5 square miles (16.9 km2), of which 4.9 square miles (12.6 km2) is land and 1.7 square miles (4.3 km2), or 25.18%, is water. Highlands is located on the banks of the San Jacinto River and the Houston Ship Channel. The majority of the land in Highlands is on a high river bank. The historic Lynchburg Ferry is nearby.

Present study is an attempt to investigate the empirical relationship of production of dates, type of the farmer, tree holding and the distance of farm to the market in district Khairpur. Cross sectional data has been collected through self-administered questionnaire. Randomly selected 202 small farmers (holding 5 or less than 5 acres of land) were interviewed. The empirical relationship has been established using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method of multiple regressions. The results indicate that the farm to market distance has a negatively significant impact on the production of dates. The production of dates has a statistically weak relationship with farms where the farmers grow trees on contract than that of the trees which are owned by the farmers. As per the standardized coefficients, the ownership of the trees by the farmers is the dominant factor affecting the date production rather than the trees taken on contract.


Auto-filling one field same as other
Often when creating a form on a web page, you need your customers to fill out a field such as a mailing address, as well as a billing address. Instead of having your customers fill out the form twice, you can use JavaScript to copy the form's data from one field to another.
You might have noticed that sometimes websites like e-commerce or some government website have two address fields in their forms.One for primary address and another for secondary address(or one for billing address and another for shipping address etc).
Most of the time people have same primary and secondary addresses and to save us from the tedious work of re-entering same data again they have some kind of option to automatically copy the contents of one fields into another.
We are going to see how to make such kind of Auto-Complete form using JavaScript.
In the form we are going to discuss, there is a checkbox and whenever it is checked, the code automatically copies values from primary address and primary zip-code to the secondary address and secondary zip-code respectively.If the checkbox is unchecked, these fields will go blank.
Here is the simple code for such kind of form:

Krishna And Radha Love?
Did Radha and Krishna make love?
He was the Parama Purusha with only pure love in his heart.
This is a matter of great sorrow that some people think that Lord krishna and Radha were involved in love affairs.
krishna never entercoursed Radha.
They did not get sexual enjoyment.
Why did Krishna and Radha not marry?
Since there is the only element, they did not marry each other. According to some versions of the story, it is noted that Radha refused to marry Lord Krishna because she felt that she wouldn't be able to adjust in his household because of the fact that she was a cowgirl and people expected Kanha to marry a Princess.
Who is the husband of Radha?
What is the end of Radha Krishna love story?
Radha and Krishna love story is an exemplary for teens where he says marriage is materialistic. Furthermore, Radha was in love with Krishna so much that she believed Krishna was God and she used to love him as a devotee. She was lost in 'bhakti love' which people started mistaking as a physical love.
How did Radha died?
Radha abandoned her body while listening to the tunes of the flute. Lord Krishna could not bear Radha's death and broke his flute as a symbolic ending of love and threw it into the bush. Since then, Sri Krishna has not played the flute or any other instrument of life.
Did Radha and Rukmini meet?
No, they never met. Rukmini and other seven wives of Lord Krishna knew that, apart from them, there are two more females, who are very dear to their husband. All wives of Shri Krishna met Draupadi during rajyabhishek of King Yudhishtir. But they never met Radha.
Who married to Radha?
Radha gets married to Ayarn leaving Krishna shocked in RadhaKrishn.
At what age did Krishna left Radha?
BUT in answer to your question I think you meant the time he left vrindavan. That was when he was eleven years old. But some works say he left at 7. P.S Sorry for giving such a long answer but their love story is divine and we shouldn't really cloud it by telling that krishna left radha.
Why did Krishna marry 16000 wives?
Their number is mentioned as 16,000 or 16,108 in different scriptures. Krishna accepted them as his wives upon their insistence to save themselves from the society who saw them as slaves of the demon king Narakasura. The chief amongst them is sometimes called Rohini.
At what age Krishna died?
125 years and 7 months
Who is the real wife of Krishna?
Is Radha Rukmini same?
As Anupama Kurup mentions, some qualities are similar-but that is precisely because they come from the same source (but are not the same as Radha). Specifically, Rukmini devi is considered an incarnation of the gopi-Candravali and/or Lakshmidevi. Radha's name is mentioned in Bhagavatam many times, but indirectly.
