Working with Reflex files
Writing reflexes requires a few tools. You'll need access to your favorite text editor, and the programs provided in the BrainStem support download. These tools include:
 - arc - The reflex language compiler
 - Python - The BrainStem python library can now load and unload reflex files.
The BrainStem support download can be obtained from the download page on the acroname website.
A Note about Directories
Acroname prefers to distribute a set of directories you can place anywhere on your system rather than rely on platform specific installation routines, and default program locations.
The BrainStem Support download includes the following directories:
 - acroname - Top level folder
 - bin - Executable apps and libraries
 - development - Examples and API libraries (Python and C++)
 - aInclude - Header files for reflexes
Arc the Acroname Reflex Compiler
Arc can be run from the command line. It will compile reflex source files from within the bin folder or from a relative file path (absolute paths will not work). The reflex files will be compiled into map files and placed into the local directory. Map files, which are binary byte code files are executed by the Reflex Virtual Machine on BrainStem modules.
$>./arc -h
This will print information about using the arc compiler. Arc has a couple of useful flags useful for working with reflex file output, but first let us look at the basic command line for compiling reflex files.
$>./arc ../development/reflex_examples/Blink_LED.reflex
This will read in the Blink_LED.reflex source file located in the development/reflex_examples folder, and produce the compiled result at bin/Blink_LED.map.
$>./arc -p ../development/reflex_examples/Blink_LED.reflex
This will read in the Blink_LED.reflex source file in the development/reflex_examples directory, and output the resulting tokenized output of the lexer portion of the compilation process.
$>./arc -a ../development/reflex_examples/Blink_LED.reflex
This will read in the Blink_LED.reflex source file located in the development/reflex_examples folder, and will output the AST for the reflex.
$>./arc -d Blink_LED.map
This will read in the compiled Blink_LED.map binary located in the bin folder, and will generate a .dsm human readable disassembly file in the bin directory. See Appendix IV: Reflex map file Disassembly for more information about understanding the format of the disassembly.
Loading reflex .map files with ReflexLoader
ReflexLoader is our new Command Line Interface (CLI) tool for loading .map files into any BrainStem device. It can be found in the BrainStem development kit under the bin folder.
$>./ReflexLoader -H
This will print the usage information for ReflexLoader. If you are having trouble getting something to work this is one of the best places to look for more information. One thing that is important to make note of is that specifying a device '-d' is required. Additionally, that means that you must also have a device (SN), store and slot specified. Failure to do so will cause the program to return an error. With that said a command is also required if you were wanting the program to actually do something; however, failure to include one will not cause an error.
$>./ReflexLoader -L -i /location/of/file.map -d 0x40F5849A INTERNAL 0
This command will load '-L' the input file '-i' /location/of/file.map to the device '-d' into the INTERNAL store at slot 0.
Unloading a slot is just as easy but instead of using the '-L' and '-i' you would use '-U' and '-o' to specify where you would like the file to go. ReflexLoader will not create any file paths that do not exist so you must give a valid path.
$>./ReflexLoader -E -d 0x40F5849A RAM 0
This command will enable '-E' the reflex that is loaded into the RAM store at slot 0 in the specified device 0x40F5849A. Keep in mind that although you can load a reflex into RAM it will not survive a power cycle as it is volatile memory.
To disable this slot just swap the '-E' for '-D'
$>./ReflexLoader -B -d 0x40F5849A INTERNAL 0
This last command will make a slot bootable. Once this has been set and a power cycle occurs the BrainStem device will automatically enable the reflex at the designated slot. In order to disable a boot slot you will need to replace the slot parameter '0' in this case with 255.
Loading reflex .map files with Python
The BrainStem python library can be used to load compiled map files onto BrainStem modules. To load .map files with python you will need to follow the installation instructions of the getting started guide in the Python section of this reference.
To load a reflex map file into a slot on your brainstem module. First compile the reflex with arc. The resulting map file can be found in your aObject directory. Then start the python interpreter, and import the brainstem package. Instantiate your module and connect. Once you're connected, the following code block will show you how to load, enable and disable the .map file.
>>> fh = open('path/to/map/mymap.map', 'rb')
>>> mapfile = fh.read()
>>> fh.close()
>>> stem.store[0].loadSlot(0, mapfile, len(mapfile)) #loads map into store 0 slot 0
0
>>> stem.store[0].slotEnable(0)
0
>>> stem.store[0].slotDisable(0)
The above code simply opens the map file for reading in binary mode, reads the contents of the file into the mapfile variable, loads that data into store 0 slot 0 and enables and disables the slot.
Boot Reflexes
You can also set your stem to enable the map file on boot. To do this you will need to load the map file into a slot on the internal store of your module (the internal store is index 0). Then set the boot slot on the module by accessing the setBootSlot procedure of the system module
>>> stem.system.setBootSlot(0)
0
>>> stem.system.setBootSlot(255) # will disable the slot from being enabled on boot.
If you do not have python installed on your system, you can also use the aConsole utility to load .map files.


FAQ
Can I microdose while I'm on antibiotics?
No, it is not wise to microdose if you use antibiotics. Your brain contains many neurons, which communicate through synapses. If you combine medicines and microdosings, the combination can be disrupted by stimuli and damping. This has to do with the neurotransmitters that are active. In addition, your immune system can respond to the use of microdosings. That may mean that you feel warm, sick or poor.
Different combinations will not stand in the way. Always consult a doctor if you think of microdosing, while using antibiotics or other medicines. Moreover, it is a good idea to drink enough water if you want microdos.

Remote Caching
A remote cache is used by a team of developers and/or a continuous integration (CI) system to share build outputs. If your build is reproducible, the outputs from one machine can be safely reused on another machine, which can make builds significantly faster.
Remote caching overview
Bazel breaks a build into discrete steps, which are called actions. Each action has inputs, output names, a command line, and environment variables. Required inputs and expected outputs are declared explicitly for each action.
You can set up a server to be a remote cache for build outputs, which are these action outputs. These outputs consist of a list of output file names and the hashes of their contents. With a remote cache, you can reuse build outputs from another user's build rather than building each new output locally.
To use remote caching:
 - Set up a server as the cache's backend
 - Configure the Bazel build to use the remote cache
 - Use Bazel version 0.10.0 or later
The remote cache stores two types of data:
 - The action cache, which is a map of action hashes to action result metadata.
 - A content-addressable store (CAS) of output files.
How a build uses remote caching
Once a server is set up as the remote cache, you use the cache in multiple ways:
 - Read and write to the remote cache
 - Read and/or write to the remote cache except for specific targets
 - Only read from the remote cache
 - Not use the remote cache at all
When you run a Bazel build that can read and write to the remote cache, the build follows these steps:
 1. Bazel creates the graph of targets that need to be built, and then creates a list of required actions. Each of these actions has declared inputs and output filenames.
 2. Bazel checks your local machine for existing build outputs and reuses any that it finds.
 3. Bazel checks the cache for existing build outputs. If the output is found, Bazel retrieves the output. This is a cache hit.
 4. For required actions where the outputs were not found, Bazel executes the actions locally and creates the required build outputs.
 5. New build outputs are uploaded to the remote cache.
Setting up a server as the cache's backend
You need to set up a server to act as the cache's backend. A HTTP/1.1 server can treat Bazel's data as opaque bytes and so many existing servers can be used as a remote caching backend. Bazel's HTTP Caching Protocol is what supports remote caching.
You are responsible for choosing, setting up, and maintaining the backend server that will store the cached outputs. When choosing a server, consider:
 - Networking speed. For example, if your team is in the same office, you may want to run your own local server.
 - Security. The remote cache will have your binaries and so needs to be secure.
 - Ease of management. For example, Google Cloud Storage is a fully managed service.
There are many backends that can be used for a remote cache. Some options include:
nginx is an open source web server. With its WebDAV module, it can be used as a remote cache for Bazel. On Debian and Ubuntu you can install the nginx-extras package. On macOS nginx is available via Homebrew:
$ brew tap denji/nginx
$ brew install nginx-full --with-webdav
Below is an example configuration for nginx. Note that you will need to change /path/to/cache/dir to a valid directory where nginx has permission to write and read. You may need to change client_max_body_size option to a larger value if you have larger output files. The server will require other configuration such as authentication.
Example configuration for server section in nginx.conf:
location /cache/ {
 # The path to the directory where nginx should store the cache contents.
 root /path/to/cache/dir;
 # Allow PUT
 dav_methods PUT;
 # Allow nginx to create the /ac and /cas subdirectories.
 create_full_put_path on;
 # The maximum size of a single file.
 client_max_body_size 1G;
 allow all;
Bazel Remote Cache
Bazel Remote Cache is an open source remote build cache that you can use on your infrastructure. It is experimental and unsupported.
This cache stores contents on disk and also provides garbage collection to enforce an upper storage limit and clean unused artifacts. The cache is available as a docker image and its code is available on GitHub.
Please refer to the GitHub page for instructions on how to use it.
Google Cloud Storage
Google Cloud Storage is a fully managed object store which provides an HTTP API that is compatible with Bazel's remote caching protocol. It requires that you have a Google Cloud account with billing enabled.
To use Cloud Storage as the cache:
 1. Create a storage bucket. Ensure that you select a bucket location that's closest to you, as network bandwidth is important for the remote cache.
 2. Create a service account for Bazel to authenticate to Cloud Storage. See Creating a service account.
 3. Generate a secret JSON key and then pass it to Bazel for authentication. Store the key securely, as anyone with the key can read and write arbitrary data to/from your GCS bucket.
 4. Connect to Cloud Storage by adding the following flags to your Bazel command:
 - Pass the following URL to Bazel by using the flag: --remote_http_cache= where bucket-name is the name of your storage bucket.
 - Pass the authentication key using the flag: --google_credentials=/path/to/your/secret-key.json, or --google_default_credentials to use Application Default Credentials.
 5. You can configure Cloud Storage to automatically delete old files. To do so, see Managing Object Lifecycles.
Other servers
You can set up any HTTP/1.1 server that supports PUT and GET as the cache's backend. Users have reported success with caching backends such as Hazelcast, Apache httpd, and AWS S3.
As of version 0.11.0 support for HTTP Basic Authentication was added to Bazel. You can pass a username and password to Bazel via the remote cache URL. The syntax is Please note that HTTP Basic Authentication transmits username and password in plaintext over the network and it's thus critical to always use it with HTTPS.
HTTP Caching Protocol
Bazel supports remote caching via HTTP/1.1. The protocol is conceptually simple: Binary data (BLOB) is uploaded via PUT requests and downloaded via GET requests. Action result metadata is stored under the path /ac/ and output files are stored under the path /cas/.
For example, consider a remote cache running under http://localhost:8080/cache. A Bazel request to download action result metadata for an action with the SHA256 hash 01ba4719... will look as follows:
GET /cache/ac/01ba4719c80b6fe911b091a7c05124b64eeece964e09c058ef8f9805daca546b HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080
Accept: */*
Connection: Keep-Alive
A Bazel request to upload an output file with the SHA256 hash 15e2b0d3... to the CAS will look as follows:
PUT /cache/cas/15e2b0d3c33891ebb0f1ef609ec419420c20e320ce94c65fbc8c3312448eb225 HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080
Accept: */*
Content-Length: 9
Connection: Keep-Alive
Run Bazel using the remote cache
Once a server is set up as the remote cache, to use the remote cache you need to add flags to your Bazel command. See list of configurations and their flags below.
You may also need configure authentication, which is specific to your chosen server.
You may want to add these flags in a.bazelrc file so that you don't need to specify them every time you run Bazel. Depending on your project and team dynamics, you can add flags to a.bazelrc file that is:
 - On your local machine
 - In your project's workspace, shared with the team
 - On the CI system
Read from and write to the remote cache
Take care in who has the ability to write to the remote cache. You may want only your CI system to be able to write to the remote cache.
Use the following flags to:
 - read from and write to the remote cache
 - disable sandboxing
build --remote_cache=
build --spawn_strategy=local
Using the remote cache with sandboxing enabled is the default. Use the following flags to read and write from the remote cache with sandboxing enabled:
build --remote_cache=
Read only from the remote cache
Use the following flags to: read from the remote cache with sandboxing disabled.
build --remote_cache=
build --remote_upload_local_results=false
build --spawn_strategy=local
Using the remote cache with sandboxing enabled is experimental. Use the following flags to read from the remote cache with sandboxing enabled:
build --remote_cache=
build --remote_upload_local_results=false
Exclude specific targets from using the remote cache
To exclude specific targets from using the remote cache, tag the target with no-cache. For example:
 name = "target",
 tags = ["no-cache"],
Delete content from the remote cache
Deleting content from the remote cache is part of managing your server. How you delete content from the remote cache depends on

Researchers: Elahe Talebiahooie, Uday Kumar
Derailment is one of the potential risks in railway transportation, which is rare but its social, economic and environmental consequences is catastrophic. Practically, intervention levels and track quality indices are used to determine time for maintenance actions, which intended to control derailment risk. To efficiently control susceptibility of track sections to derailment, maintenance and inspection schedules should be optimized.
The aim of this project is to propose a practical framework to predict derailment likelihood based on mechanical simulation and track geometry historical data. The simulation will be performed in real time. Wheel flange climb and gauge widening and rail rollover are the two causes that will be assessed in this project.
Movable cellular automata (MCA) is the selected approach for the mechanical simulation of ballast, rail, sleepers and fasteners. The code of MCA will be developed in GPU to have a faster and more efficient simulation. The MCA is a method in computational solid mechanics based on the discrete concept. It provides advantages both of classical cellular automaton and discrete element methods.
1 km of railway will be simulated. With considering the ballast size as 38 mm and 1000×2×0.5 m as the dimension of the substructure, then 37×〖10〗^6 particles in the ballast and around 40×〖10〗^6 in total (also considering superstructure elements like rail, sleeper, fastening system, and weld) will be simulated in 1 km of railway. After performing the simulation, the transition rules in the MCA will be calibrated based on the historical data of track geometry

When using the Table class method where() on indexed
columns, it will not return values even if they are
within the given condition.
Attached is code that demonstrates this problem. The
code does this by creating a table with two columns
with identical data, the only difference being that one
column is indexed, and the other is not. When using
where() with identical ranges on both the columns the
call on the non-indexed column will return values,
while the call on the indexed column will not.
I have tested this code with PyTables 0.9.1, and the
problem is not present in that version.


Laravel Working With Json Table Column Example
How to Store multiple values in single field laravel is the todays topic. Sometimes we need to store multiple key and value in single column in Laravel. But do you know how we can do that? we can use pivot table to solve this issue. But here i am going to use json column to store multiple records with key and value for respect to key.
From this laravel json tutorial you will also learn how to insert json data into mysql using laravel. In this tutorial we will insert multiple properties for a single product like size, price, value, color etc from a single method into a single field with json.
So let's se how we can store json data into database. So let's start laravel json column example tutorial.
Preview : Store json data form
store-json-data-laravel

Preview : After fetching json data
laravel-working-with-json

Step 1 : Create Model
In this we need product model. So let's create it to store json data.
php artisan make:model Product -m

Now open product model and update like below.
app/Product.php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Product extends Model
{
 protected $guarded = [];
 protected $casts = [
 'properties' => 'array'
 ];
 public function setPropertiesAttribute($value)
 {
 $properties = [];
 foreach ($value as $array_item) {
 if (!is_null($array_item['key'])) {
 $properties[] = $array_item;
 }
 }
 $this->attributes['properties'] = json_encode($properties);
 }
}

and open migration file and update it like below.
database/migration/create_products_table.php
 public function up()
 {
 Schema::create('products', function (Blueprint $table) {
 $table->increments('id');
 $table->string('name');
 $table->decimal('price', 15, 2);
 $table->json('properties');
 $table->timestamps();
 });
 }

Step 2 : Create Route
We need many route for storing json data into json column.
routes/web.php
Route::get('produc/create','ProductController@show_product_form')->name('produc.create');
Route::post('produc/create','ProductController@store');
Route::get('produc','ProductController@index')->name('produc.index');

Step 3 : Create Controller
In this step we need to create product controller. So create it and update this controller like below
app/Http/Controllers/ProductController.php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Category;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\Product;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class ProductController extends Controller
{
 public function show_product_form()
 {
 return view('create');
 }
 public function store(Request $request)
 {
 $product = Product::create($request->all());

 return redirect()->back();
 }
 public function index()
 {
 $post = Product::all();
 return view('index',['products' => $post]);
 }
}

Step 4 : Create Blade File
Now we are in the final step and all are set to go. So how to insert json data into mysql using laravel we will know. Now create below file and paste this code in your file.
resources/views/create.blade.php

resources/views/index.blade.php

Knowledge, technology trajectories, and innovation in a developing country context: evidence from a survey of Malaysian firms
This paper investigates the applicability of contemporary firm-level innovation concepts to a developing country context by drawing on the results of a survey of Malaysian manufacturing and service establishments. We build on Keith Pavitt's 'technology trajectories' framework to empirically test the effect of firms' structure, strategy, resources, and environment on the probability of their product, process, and organisational innovations across various sectors. We find that Malaysian firms possess relatively high process and organisational innovation capabilities, but lag in new product development. Further, they more frequently utilise a variety of'soft factors' like employee training, knowledge management practices, and collaboration with market actors as inputs to innovation rather than formal R&D. We conclude by discussing the implications of our findings about Malaysian firms' technology trajectories to innovation policy in that country.

Python Question
Dynamically printing value of entry in another entry
My code:
import tkinter as tk
disp = tk.Tk()
hlabel=tk.Label(text="host")
hlabel.grid(column=0,row=0)
host_entry = tk.Entry(disp)
host_entry.grid(row=0,column=1)
plabel=tk.Label(text="port")
plabel.grid(column=0,row=1)
port_entry = tk.Entry(disp)
port_entry.grid(row=1,column=1)
ulabel=tk.Label(text="Url")
ulabel.grid(column=0,row=3)
url_entry=tk.Entry(disp)
url_entry.grid(row=3,column=1)
url_entry.insert(0,'http://{0}:{1}'.format(host_entry.get(),port_entry.get()))
url_entry.config(state='disabled')
disp.mainloop()
I looked through this awesome answer but couldn't figure out.
The
'host'
and
'port'
should be displayed in the
'url'
Entry as
http://localhost:8080.
The text should be displayed dynamically in
url
.
Thanks for your help.
Answer
The simplest solution is to use a textvariable for each entry, put a trace on each variable, and then update the third entry whenever the trace fires.
First, define a function to update the third entry. It will be called by the trace functions, which automatically appends some arguments which we won't use:
def update_url(*args):
 host = host_var.get()
 port = port_var.get()
 url = "http://{0}:{1}".format(host, port)
 url_var.set(url)
Next, create the variables:
host_var = tk.StringVar()
port_var = tk.StringVar()
url_var = tk.StringVar()
Next, add a trace on the host and port:
host_var.trace("w", update_url)
port_var.trace("w", update_url)
Finally, associate the variables with the entries:
host_entry = tk.Entry(..., textvariable=host_var)
port_entry = tk.Entry(..., textvariable=port_var)
url_entry=tk.Entry(..., textvariable=url_var)
Here it is as a full working example:
import tkinter as tk
def update_url(*args):
 host = host_var.get()
 port = port_var.get()
 url = "http://{0}:{1}".format(host, port)
 url_var.set(url)
disp = tk.Tk()
host_var = tk.StringVar()
port_var = tk.StringVar()
url_var = tk.StringVar()
host_var.trace("w", update_url)
port_var.trace("w", update_url)
hlabel=tk.Label(text="host")
plabel=tk.Label(text="port")
ulabel=tk.Label(text="Url")
host_entry = tk.Entry(disp, textvariable=host_var)
port_entry = tk.Entry(disp, textvariable=port_var)
url_entry=tk.Entry(disp, textvariable=url_var)
url_entry.config(state='disabled')
hlabel.grid(column=0,row=0)
host_entry.grid(row=0,column=1)
plabel.grid(column=0,row=1)
port_entry.grid(row=1,column=1)
ulabel.grid(column=0,row=3)

The Role of Recognition
Recognition has been a fundamental part of Scouting from its beginning. Done well, it is a powerful tool that can help leaders set goals, define accomplishments, encourage skill development, celebrate commitment and achievement, and inspire others to strive for similar success.
Effective recognition is essential to effective unit service:
- It provides clear definition of success: the attitude, skills, training and behaviors needed to perform effectively
- It helps identify and recruit volunteers to serve as commissioners
- It helps retain commissioners
For commissioners, effective recognition supports recruiting and developing a team that helps unit leaders start, build, and grow strong, sustainable units that will ensure every member of the BSA has a great Scouting experience.
While there are many definitions of "commission," they share common threads: a "Commission" is an authorization to act; an act of entrusting or giving authority; an appointment or assignment to a task or function.
In Scouting, only professional staff members and commissioners are eligible to be commissioned. Just as the wreath of service is a unique design element of their badges of office, commissioning is a unique opportunity for individuals in those positions to publicly commit to providing service in Scouting and to celebrate their commitment.
Commissioners are recruited and commit to serve one year at a time; a commissioning ceremony is a great opportunity to publicly formalize and celebrate their commitment.
For commissioners who are renewing their commitment to serve, a review of achievements over the past year and plans for the year to come (Assess – Plan – Act) provide great preparation for a commissioning ceremony.
Commissioning ceremonies – and preparation for them – help recognize and celebrate success and retain commissioners.
Everything needed to conduct commissioning ceremonies is just a click away: _URL_
Commissioner recognition and this awards and recognition website have three objectives:
- Establish recognition opportunities for all commissioners.
- Establish consistent requirements that incorporate the contemporary tools and techniques commissioners use.
- Provide easy access to information, including opportunities, requirements, progress records, certificates, and available recognition items.
There are three categories of commissioner awards and recognition:
- Recognition of an individual's commitment to serve.
- Recognition of an individual's development.
- Recognition of an individual's impact.
There are also three classifications of commissioner awards and recognition:

Can you close a script?
There's lua_openscript myscript.lua but is there a close function or is it file:close?
You seem to have a misunderstanding of what lua_openscript does. It opens the file and reads it, and then automatically closes it. It takes the resulting string and runs it through the compiler. The compiler turns this into bytecode, which is then loaded into the runtime environment, and stays there until the environment is shut down(client disconnecting or map switch, for example ).
What do you mean by close?
lua_openscript is a command to load the script file and run it once the script is done executing (by reaching the end of the file) that's it. There's nothing to "close".
Darn. Ninja'd.
(client disconnecting or map switch, for example ). is there a way I can for close it?
Again, you misunderstand. At the most simple level, this is what the game is doing:
RunString( file.Read( "filename.lua", "LUA" ) )
file.Read automatically closes the file after reading it.
What are you trying to accomplish? I can most likely help you solve whatever problem you have in a different way.
he probably means undoing whatever the script did, like removing hooks and timers.

Globe-Trotting Gnome Highlights Earth's Weird Gravity
Here, the gnome is standing at the Antarctic South Pole. Turns out, the gnome (and you) weighs more at the South Pole than at the equator.
There aren't too many gardens at the South Pole. But there are, apparently, garden gnomes.
A globe-trotting little garden gnome dubbed "Kern" recently visited Amundsen-Scott Research Station at the geographic South Pole in Antarctica. The inanimate traveler's trip was a take on the "Traveling Gnome Prank," a joke that's been in vogue since the 1980s, when pranksters started stealing garden gnomes and sending photographs of the statuettes in front of famous sightseeing spots to their owners.
Kern's travels have a scientific bent, however. The precision scale company Kern & Sohn is teaming up with schools and research stations worldwide to highlight the variations of gravity across the globe.
"Most people don't realize Earth's gravity actually varies slightly," Tommy Fimpel, one of the experiment's coordinators, explained in a statement. "One of the main causes is variations in the shape of the planet. Believe it or not, the Earth is actually slightly potato-shaped, so you'll weigh up to 0.5 percent more or less, depending on where you go."
Even glaciers can change an area's gravity; a mysterious dip in gravity over Canada is likely the result of now-melted glaciers that left behind an imprint from which Earth is still rebounding.
"We thought our Gnome Experiment would be a fun way to measure the phenomenon," Fimpel said.
So far, Kern has traveled, via the mail, to places as far-flung as Lima, Mumbai, Mexico, South Africa, San Francisco, New Caledonia, Sydney and the South Pole. [Photos of Globe-Trotting Gnome]
At the South Pole, where Kern landed last month, the gnome tipped the scale at 309.82 grams, his heaviest measurement yet. That's because the inertia produced by Earth's rotation is stronger at the poles, said Marie McLane, a researcher with the United States Antarctic program and Kern's "host" on the visit to Antarctica. Earth is also slightly squished in shape, with a bulge at the equator, so the planet is less thick at the poles, also contributing to a stronger gravitational effect.
Kern jetted off to Japan after hitting Antarctica, weighing in at 307.9 grams in Tokyo. His next stop is at Snolab in Canada, an underground research station 1.2 miles (2 kilometers) below the Earth's surface. From there, Kern will visit the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest particle accelerator, at CERN near Geneva.
Kern's journey to Antarctica didn't only highlight the gravitational vagaries of Earth; it also shed light on the planet's elusive garden gnome population. The gnome's visit inspired McLane to do some detective work around the Amundsen-Scott Research Station. She found five little gnomes already lurking in labs and other spots around the station — including one, fittingly enough, guarding a greenhouse.
Kern's progress can be tracked at gnomeexperiment.com.

Ellandi: the UK's leading community shopping centre investor
Provision of an objective and clearly structured heritage impact assessment, with accompanying townscape visual impact assessment for Marlands Shopping Centre, a key location within Southampton, in the setting of a number of significant heritage assets, notably including its location adjacent to the grade II* listed civic centre.
The planning proposal is for the reconfiguration of existing space, together with provision of additional storeys of student accommodation on the existing shopping centre, which is to remain in its existing use.
We provided an objective baseline assessment of the existing context and followed a thorough approach (defined by Historic England and the Landscape Institute) to assess potential impact. We defined heritage sensitive design principles and worked with the architectural team to refine the scheme /mitigate impact. The HTVIA provided important guidance to the design process, in addition to providing a key document to engage with Southampton City Council and Historic England. Our work on the project demanded a thorough, objective and defensible methodology, which we have significant wider experience in, having undertaken a range of objective comparative assessments, including greenbelt appraisals.

Flown is a photography, text and sound exhibition and the finale of a year long project called Flying Solo, exploring independence in shared space.
In a contemporary experience that pushes us towards independence, isolation and spectacle Flying Solo sought the beginning of an intimate alternative.
Three dance soloists from contemporary, hip-hop and African dance researched expressing true self and the diversity of their art forms in shared space. Their research took them through performances in parks, theatres, forests and tents across the UK and Ghana, including Wanstead Flats and Epping Forest.
Flown brings together photographs from the performances by Photographer Alistair H M Simmons and sound and text from interviews with the dance soloists Tyrone-Isaac Stuart, Hayley J S Matthews and Nii-Tete Yartey, who were interviewed and supported by artist Martin J Gent.
Flown is presented by ENSEMBLE, a collection of dance, sound and visual artists who make dance performances and interventions that have intimacy, grace and freedom, lead by dancer Hayley J S Matthews.
Flown is supported by Arts Council England, DanceEast, the People's Forest at Waltham Forest London Borough of Culture, Noyam African Dance Institute, OpenEaling and the Peripheral Space Project.

After being pressured from a campaign against the use of ferrets in pediatrics training, the University of Washington has now said that it has replaced the use of ferrets with human-based medical simulators to teach future pediatricians.
This change is the result of a campaign by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), with work on the ground by the Seattle Animal Defense League (SADL), as well as support by members of other local animal advocacy groups and activists, and the willingness of UW to adopt current best practices. This could not have been done without the tens of thousands of supporters from PCRM, SADL, the Northwest Animal Rights Network (NARN), and others who flooded UW administrators with e-mails and written petitions over the past year encouraging the school to take this progressive step. And UW finally listened!
A UW spokesperson stated that instead of ferrets "tetherless simulators are being employed at the point-of-care at the bedside to simulate resuscitations and enhance teamwork among healthcare providers," and that "simulation will be a more cost-effective way to train intubation techniques."
Ferrets used in endotracheal intubation training at UW suffered through multiple intubations and were used for several sessions. Also, some of the animals used were later killed. Fortunately, the school has now joined the 95 percent of pediatrics residency programs in the United States that view nonanimal methods as not only more humane but educationally superior.
While this is indeed good news for ferrets, much more work needs to be done for the thousands upon thousands of other aniamls currently being used by the UW for research. Let us use this victory as a springboard to get more positive results for others.

Running Veeam PowerShell Scripts in Non-Interactive Mode - Credentials
This time we get back to some PowerShell basics and how to run scripts in non-interactive mode.
Veeam Backup & Replication and scripting go hand in hand really well. And the first thing you do when running a script is to connect to backup server
Connect-VBRServer -Server $ServerName -User $User -Password $Pass
Placing user and pass in clear text in a script may not be the best option. We could use PSCredential object to hold the username and password.
$PSCredential = Get-Credential
Connect-VBRServer -Server $ServerName -Credential $PSCredential
However getting the credentials in the objects implies using Get-Credential cmdlet which is interactive and will prompt to type the user and password. This makes it hard to run the script in non-interactive mode.
To make it non-interactive we need password saved somewhere. To save and encrypted password we can use ConvertFrom-SecureString cmdlet and pipe the output to a file:
(Get-Credential).Password | ConvertFrom-SecureString | Set-Content $encPassFileName
Since the username could be stored in the script itself, we retrieve only the secure string for the password, pipe it to the encrypting cmdlet and then output it to a file. Opening the output file will list something similar to:
Now we need to create the PScredential object:
$password = Get-Content $encPassFileName | ConvertTo-SecureString
$psCredential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PsCredential($username,$password)
First, we loaded the content of the file storing the encrypted password and convert it to a secure string (PScredential objects use secure strings). Next we created the object with the username and the password. The generated object can be used to connect to VBR Server
Connect-VBRServer -Server $ServerName -Credential $PSCredential
By default, ConvertFrom-SecureString encryption is done using Windows Data Protection API (DPAPI). For this reason the file cannot be moved to another computer and used from that one. On each computer from where the script is being run, the password must be encrypted separately.

Ministry of Public Health today announced the registration of 623 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 and the recovery of 61 cases, bringing the total number of recovered cases in Qatar to 750.
Most of the new cases are for expatriate workers most of who have been subject to quarantine after it was found that they were in contact with confirmed cases.
All newly infected cases have been put into isolation and are receiving the necessary medical care.
With the registration of 61 new recovered cases, the total number of people to have recovered from COVID-19 is 750.
The Ministry of Public Health stated that the recent increase in the number of confirmed new cases of coronavirus is due to several reasons, including that the spread of the virus has begun to enter the peak stage (i.e. the highest wave that affects the country), which may continue to increase for a period of time before it begins to decline.
It is also due to the increase in the efforts of the Ministry and its medical teams to track the transmission chains of coronavirus and expand the surveillance process, including of groups of contacts with people who were previously diagnosed with the disease. All of this has contributed to the early detection of many cases of infection and reduced the spread of the virus.

Neekerbreekers were large and loud insects related to crickets. They dwelt in the Midgewater Marshes and squeaked all through the night, calling "neek-breek, breek-neek". Sam Gamgee gave them the name 'Neekerbreekers'.[1]
[edit] Etymology
Neekerbreekers were named so because of their sound, perhaps like that of a cricket.[2]

ExhibitPearls of the Antilles: Printed Maps of Caribbean Islands
(Arts & Culture - UT Arlington and Community)
Pearls of the Antilles: Printed Maps of Caribbean Islands
October 1, 2012 through February 9, 2013
Few people would argue that Caribbean islands have not played pivotal roles in American history. From Columbus' discoveries to the U.S. Guantanamo Bay prison debate, events on islands of the West Indies have impacted our history. While most of these islands are not that distant, our personal knowledge of them is often scant. With the help of old maps, there are interesting facts to learn and more importantly, connections for us to make. Old printed maps of the Caribbean islands depict not only the geography of the islands but also reflect many of the themes of Caribbean (and American) history as well as cartographic history.
Pearls of the Antilles: Printed Maps of Caribbean Islands shows how maps of the Caribbean incorporate many of the themes of cartographic history found in maps of other geographical areas, from technical developments to increasing diversification in types of maps, and from leading "national schools" in certain time periods to such themes as the growth of a tourist map industry.
Pearls of the Antilles: Printed Maps of Caribbean Islands is located in Special Collections, 6th floor, UT Arlington Central Library and runs through February 9, 2013. Hours are 9am - 7pm Monday and 9am - 5pm Tuesday through Saturday. This exhibit is free and open to the public. For more information call _PHONE_.
Note: visit _URL_ and look at Central Library for hours during holidays. Closed November 22, 23; December 24, 25, 31, and January 1, 2013.

The Zoo's three olive baboon babies are now 16 months old and have started to develop some great talents! Because of their constant curiosity and motivation, the baboon babies have learned how to paint and partake in the University of Rochester cognitive research study.
So how do you teach a baboon to paint? Cheerios were placed underneath the door frame, shown in the picture to the right, behind a dot of paint. In order to get to the Cheerio, the baboons had to reach under the door frame and pull towards them. Every time they "finger painted," a Cheerio was given as a reward. Once this concept was figured out, getting paint on them and everywhere else was fun!
Baby baboon Pico de Limon, shown in the picture to the left, was the first baby to join the study with the University of Rochester that many of our adult baboons have been working on for the last two years. He is progressing very quickly, learning that choosing the cup that held the most peanuts meant that he got to eat them! In just a few weeks, he now has three cups placed on the board and has been able to choose successfully that three peanuts going into one cup is more than one peanut going into another.
We are very excited to see what level his counting skills are at compared to the adults as well as getting some insight as to what age these skills start to develop.

Share PINTEREST Email Print Divers making a confined water dive in a swimming pool. © Getty Images The Great Outdoors Scuba Diving & Snorkeling Gear Skills Safety Hiking Climbing Skiing Snowboarding Surfing Paddling Fishing Sailing Learn More By Natalie Gibb Natalie Gibb owns a dive shop in Mexico and is a PADI-certified open water scuba instructor and TDI-certified full cave diving instructor. our editorial process Natalie Gibb Updated March 17, 2017 The term confined water is used to describe a dive site at which the environment is entirely predictable and controlled. This includes acceptable visibility for the planned dive, a calm surface and an absence of strong current. Confined water sites should have easy entry and exit points, and should not have any overhang or obstruction that prevents divers from directly reaching the surface. The most common example of a confined water dive site is a swimming pool. Other typical confined water locations include a calm bay, a lake or even a man-made quarry. Confined water sites are used for skill practice and training, for testing out new dive gear, or for novice divers who would like to play in an easy environment before heading to open water. A confined water dive most often refers to training dives with the express purpose of learning, practicing, and evaluating dive skills. The PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) open water course, for example, requires students to pass five confined water dives at a variety of depths. Initially, skills are practiced in water shallow enough to stand up in, and as the student progresses, skills are practiced in deeper water. Any dive made in confined water, however, can be technically considered a confined water dive.

Animals & comic scenes
Other popular themes in Victorian Christmas cards are birds and animals, often depicted in amusing ways, and comic scenes. Dogs, cats, and songbirds were regular subjects in Victorian cards, as they are today. However, the use of frogs, rats, mice, and insects in Christmas cards has declined over the years.
Comic cards usually present situations involving winter scenes, Christmas customs, or politics and current events. While some still amuse us, others treated topics of a less enduring nature and now tend to baffle us.

Capture tee's argument inside piped Perl execution
Question:
Tag: perl,unix
How to capture piped command's argument ?
I use :
perl my_script.pl -some_args | tee arg_filename
How to get arg_filename 's value inside my_script.pl ?
CONTEXT
I need to send this filename in a mail which my_script.pl sends at the end.
I need to use tee because we dump huge output in the standard logging which we use inside my_script.pl but we print more relevant things on STDOUT and STDERR.
This script imports and uses additional proprietary libraries which could not be edited. But they too generate logs.
Answer:
The short answer is - you can't.
tee is a separate process with it's own arguments. There is no way to access these arguments from that process. (well, I suppose you could run ps or something).
The point of tee is to take STDOUT write some of it to a log file, and pass through the rest of it down the 'pipe'. (Which results in printing it if nothing else).
What you could probably do instead is implement some manner of logging within your perl script, where the core functionality of tee is replicated by printing a line to both STDOUT and a designated log file.

Lobster, California spiny
The California Spiny Lobster fishery is a small but locally important and largely sustainable fishery in southern California.
Abundance of Spiny Lobsters off California varies with broad-scale changes in environmental conditions caused by El Nino and La Nina.
State managers closely regulate commercial fishing for Spiny Lobster, but do not monitor recreational catches. Bycatch is low. Spiny Lobster traps generally allow undersize lobsters and other animals to escape.
This fish may have high levels of mercury that could pose a health risk to adults and children. More mercury info here.

Use the Factory Method Pattern for Object Creation in Sitecore
Sitecore Technology MVP 2016
Sitecore MVP 2015

Enter your email address to follow this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email.
This post is a continuation of a series of posts I'm putting together around using design patterns in Sitecore, and will show a "proof of concept" around using the Factory Method pattern — a creational pattern whereby client code obtain instances of objects without knowing the concrete class types of these objects. This pattern promotes loose coupling between objects being created and the client code that use them.
In this "proof of concept", I am using an Item Validator to call a factory method to obtain a "fields comparer" object to ascertain whether one field contains a value greater than a value in another field, and will show this for two different field types in Sitecore.
I first defined an interface for objects that will compare values in two Sitecore fields:
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public interface IFieldsComparer
 {
 bool IsFieldOneLessThanOrEqualToFieldTwo(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo);
 }
}
Instances of classes that implement the IFieldsComparer interface above will ascertain whether the value in fieldOne is less than or equal to the value in fieldTwo.
I then defined a class that implements the IFieldsComparer interface to compare integer values in two fields:
using System;
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
using Sitecore.Diagnostics;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public class IntegerFieldsComparer : IFieldsComparer
 {
 public bool IsFieldOneLessThanOrEqualToFieldTwo(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo)
 {
 Assert.ArgumentNotNull(fieldOne, "fieldOne");
 Assert.ArgumentNotNull(fieldTwo, "fieldTwo");
 return ParseInteger(fieldOne) <= ParseInteger(fieldTwo);
 }
 protected virtual int ParseInteger(Field field)
 {
 int fieldValue;
 int.TryParse(field.Value, out fieldValue);
 return fieldValue;
 }
 }
}
There isn't much to see in the class above. The class parses the integer values in each field, and checks to see if the value in fieldOne is less than or equal to the value in fieldTwo.
Now, let's create a another class — one that compares DateTime values in two different fields:
using System;
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
using Sitecore.Diagnostics;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public class DateFieldsComparer : IFieldsComparer
 {
 public bool IsFieldOneLessThanOrEqualToFieldTwo(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo)
 {
 Assert.ArgumentNotNull(fieldOne, "fieldOne");
 Assert.ArgumentNotNull(fieldTwo, "fieldTwo");
 return ParseDateTime(fieldOne) <= ParseDateTime(fieldTwo);
 }
 protected virtual DateTime ParseDateTime(Field field)
 {
 return DateUtil.IsoDateToDateTime(field.Value);
 }
 }
}
Similarly to the IFieldsComparer class for integers, the class above parses the field values into DateTime instances, and ascertains whether the DateTime value in fieldOne occurs before or at the same time as the DateTime value in fieldTwo.
You might now be asking "Mike, what about other field types?" Well, I could have defined more IFieldsComparer classes for other fields but this post would go on and on, and we both don't want that 😉 So, to account for other field types, I've defined the following Null Object for fields that are not accounted for:
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public class NullFieldsComparer : IFieldsComparer
 {
 public bool IsFieldOneLessThanOrEqualToFieldTwo(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo)
 {
 return true;
 }
 }
}
The Null Object class above just returns true without performing any comparison.
Now that we have "fields comparers", we need a Factory method. I've defined the following interface for objects that will create instances of our IFieldsComparer:
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public interface IFieldsComparerFactory
 {
 IFieldsComparer GetFieldsComparer(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo);
 }
}
Instances of classes that implement the interface above will return the appropriate IFieldsComparer for comparing the two passed fields.
The following class implements the IFieldsComparerFactory interface above:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Xml;
using Sitecore.Configuration;
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
using Sitecore.Diagnostics;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public class FieldsComparerFactory : IFieldsComparerFactory
 {
 private static volatile IFieldsComparerFactory current;
 private static object locker = new Object();
 public static IFieldsComparerFactory Current
 {
 get
 {
 if (current == null)
 {
 lock (locker)
 {
 if (current == null)
 {
 current = CreateNewFieldsComparerFactory();
 }
 }
 }
 return current;
 }
 }
 private static IDictionary<string, XmlNode> FieldsComparersTypes { get; set; }
 private IFieldsComparer NullFieldsComparer { get; set; }
 static FieldsComparerFactory()
 {
 FieldsComparersTypes = new Dictionary<string, XmlNode>();
 }
 public IFieldsComparer GetFieldsComparer(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo)
 {
 Assert.IsNotNull(NullFieldsComparer, "NullFieldsComparer must be set in configuration!");
 if (!AreEqualIgnoreCase(fieldOne.Type, fieldTwo.Type) || !FieldsComparersTypes.ContainsKey(fieldOne.Type))
 {
 return NullFieldsComparer;
 }
 XmlNode configNode = FieldsComparersTypes[fieldOne.Type];
 if(configNode == null)
 {
 return NullFieldsComparer;
 }
 IFieldsComparer comparer = Factory.CreateObject(configNode, false) as IFieldsComparer;
 if (comparer == null)
 {
 return NullFieldsComparer;
 }
 return comparer;
 }
 private static bool AreEqualIgnoreCase(string stringOne, string stringTwo)
 {
 return string.Equals(stringOne, stringTwo, StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase);
 }
 protected virtual void AddFieldsComparerConfigNode(XmlNode configNode)
 {
 if(configNode.Attributes["fieldType"] == null || string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(configNode.Attributes["fieldType"].Value))
 {
 return;
 }
 if (configNode.Attributes["type"] == null || string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(configNode.Attributes["type"].Value))
 {
 return;
 }
 FieldsComparersTypes[configNode.Attributes["fieldType"].Value] = configNode;
 }
 private static IFieldsComparerFactory CreateNewFieldsComparerFactory()
 {
 return Factory.CreateObject("factories/fieldsComparerFactory", true) as IFieldsComparerFactory;
 }
 }
}
The AddFieldsComparerConfigNode() method above is used by the Sitecore Configuration Factory to add configuration-defined Xml nodes that define field types and their IFieldsComparer — these are placed into the FieldsComparersTypes dictionary for later look-up and instantiation.
The GetFieldsComparer() factory method tries to figure out which IFieldsComparer to return from the FieldsComparersTypes dictionary. If an appropriate IFieldsComparer is found for the two fields, the method uses Sitecore.Configuration.Factory.CreateObject() — this is defined in Sitecore.Kernel.dll — to create the instance that is defined in the type attribute of the XmlNode that is stored in the FieldsComparersTypes dictionary.
If an appropriate IFieldsComparer cannot be determined for the passed fields, then the Null Object IFieldsComparer — this is injected into the NullFieldsComparer property via the Sitecore Configuration Factory — is returned.

Bandiana, consisting mainly of a military establishment, is immediately south-east of Wodonga in north-eastern Victoria.
Early authorities state that the name arose from an Aboriginal woman with bandy legs, but that view is most likely fanciful. A later authority states that the name is derived from an Aboriginal word meaning hill. While Bandiana is on flat ground, it is overlooked by Huon Hill to the north and Bears Hill to the south. (Charles Huon was a pioneer of Wodonga.)

Elasticsearch Verification Overview
Updated 1 day ago by Michael Cretzman
This topic describes how to set up Harness Continuous Verification features, and monitor your deployments and production applications using Harness' unsupervised machine-learning functionality, on the Elastic Stack.
Harness supports Elastic versions 5.0 to 7.x.
In this topic:
Visual Summary
Harness Continuous Verification integrates with ELK to verify your deployments and live production applications using the following Harness features:
 - 24/7 Service Guard - Monitors your live, production applications.
 - Deployment Verification - Monitors your application deployments, and performs automatic rollback according to your criteria.
This topic describes how to set up these Harness Continuous Verification features, and how to monitor your deployments and production applications using its unsupervised machine-learning functionality.
Exceptions with Elasticsearch via Kibana
Harness Analysis of Elasticsearch Verification
Integration Process Summary
You set up ELK and Harness in the following way:
 1. ELK - Monitor your application using ELK. In this article, we assume that you are using ELK to monitor your application already.
 2. Verification Provider Setup - In Harness, you connect Harness to your ELK account, adding ELK as a Harness Verification Provider.
 3. Harness Application - Create a Harness Application with a Service and an Environment. We do not cover Application setup in this sequence. See Application Components.
 4. 24/7 Service Guard SetupIn the Environment, set up 24/7 Service Guard to monitor your live, production application.
 5. Verify Deployments:
 1. Add a Workflow to your Harness Application and deploy your microservice or application to the service infrastructure/Infrastructure Definition in your Environment.
 2. After you have run a successful deployment, you then add verification steps to the Workflow using your Verification Provider.
 3. Harness uses unsupervised machine-learning and Elasticsearch analytics to analyze your future deployments, discovering events that might be causing your deployments to fail. Then you can use this information to set rollback criteria and improve your deployments.

Ad server is a useful software widely used in digital ads. These ads involve publishers, advertisers and marketers. They perform monitoring on aspects like the number of clicks, and verify results of the businesses. It is worthwhile to know how these ad servers work.
An ad server serves the purpose of publishing ads in targeted websites according to a predetermined time across geographical areas. Ad servers are widely used by ad networks, advertisers, and publishers.
Ad servers are used to post ads on websites. Ad servers make sure the ads are displayed where they are targeted as per audience, time and locality.
How an ad server works?
Ad serving is a technology that uses software to place ads on websites. It also involves serving ads, optimally target them and choose them according the place and web page.
Ad servers are responsible servers and decide what ads are to be displayed, which are to be tracked such as impression and clicks.
Technically speaking, the explanation goes thus: When a user visits a website, the site gets prompted to send a message to the browser. The browser in turn approaches the relevant server. The server furnishes ads as per request of the browser. The ads are sent to the browser that are displayed in the website. Now the user can get the display ads on the target page. This is how the ad servers work.
What an ad server does?
- An ad server uploads ads as required. It also uploads rich-media. Rich media include interactive means of communication such as animation, audio, games, graphics, text, videos, etc.
- Ad servers make sure the proper traffic of ads happens. This depends on the terms associated with business between the publisher, advertiser and the business owner.
- Ad servers target ads depending on users or content. This is done based on the past browsing behavior of the user. The ad server sends relevant ads to the displayed page. Ads are also targeted according to the geographical location. The ads are programmed to be displayed on target web pages in a certain part of the globe.
- Ad servers furnish the data on impressions, number of clicks, and the activities following clicks, how the interaction and its duration.
Ad servers are an important means of doing business for all those involved in digital advertising. With appropriate planning and managing the ads optimally get good results for ad server usage.

I am working on a MapInfo plugin to convert MapInfo files to GeoJSON files.
I am having trouble matching up the object types of the two formats. Each GeoJSON object type is described in the documentation. The MapInfo object types are a bit more ambiguous. The best I can find is in the MapBasic reference file which says, for example:
- OBJ_INFO_TYPE value: OBJ_TYPE_REGION
- ID: 7
- Object type: Region Object
This is obvious enough but what exactly is a region? Is it analogous to a Polygon? Or is it any closed object?
Can anyone point me towards a decent definition of each object type?
I sent a message to the MapInfo support people who pointed me towards a section in the MapInfo User Guide headed "Map Objects as Part of Layers" which spells things out perfectly. I still can't find this page in the guide that I have (version 10.5) so I'll paste the relevant section below for anyone else in my position.
Quote starts here:
MapInfo Professional are made up of layers of map objects. There are five basic types of objects:
- Regions: closed objects that cover a given area. These include polygons, ellipses, and rectangles. For example, country boundaries, postal code boundaries, sales territories.
- Point objects: represent single locations of data. For example, customer locations, restaurants, parking meters. Points can also be combined into multipoint objects.
- Line objects: open objects that cover a given distance. These include lines, polylines, and arcs. Examples are streets, rivers, power lines.
- Text objects: text that describes a map or another object, such as labels and titles.
- Collection objects: combination of region, line, and multipoint objects.
You can have each type of object in a separate layer (most common), or you can combine objects in the same layer.
