Simple Adoption Law & Legal Definition
A simple adoption refers to a type of adoption that establishes a new legal parent-child relationship between the child and his/her adoptive parents, without terminating the parent-child relationship which existed before the adoption.
In simple adoption, adoptive parents have parental responsibility for the child. It allows some of the legal bonds between an adopted child and his/her birth family to remain. However, it is less restrictive in its requirements and less radical in effects than plenary adoption.

Apache Spark
To connect Apache Spark to Arctic, you need to set the following properties as you initialize Spark SQL:
Configuration property nameValuePurpose
spark.sql.catalog.<catalog_name>.uriArctic Catalog EndpointEnables the query engine to know the location of the Iceberg catalog.
spark.sql.catalog.<catalog_name>.authentication.typeBEAREREnables the query engine to know the authentication type to be used for the Iceberg catalog.
spark.sql.catalog.<catalog_name>.authentication.token<personal-access-token>Enables the query engine know the authentication token to be used for the Iceberg catalog.
spark.sql.catalog.<catalog_name>.warehousePath to the Amazon S3 bucketEnables the query engine know where to create tables.
Replace the following:
 - Replace <catalog_name> with a unique value (for example, arctic or myArcticCatalog).
 - Set the authentication type to BEARER.
 - Set the authentication token to the personal access token you generated in your Dremio Cloud organization. If you have not created a personal access token, see Personal Access Tokens for information about how Dremio Cloud uses these tokens and how to generate one.
 note
 The personal access token identifies the Dremio user who can read and write data as well as the user's role-based access control (RBAC) permissions on the Arctic catalog. Dremio enforces the user's existing Arctic RBAC permissions when they read and write data through the Apache Spark engine.
 - Set the warehouse to the location (path to an on-premise or cloud storage) the query engine should use to create tables and write data.
Here is an example initialization that you can run to start up a Spark SQL session with the <catalog_name> set to arctic:

An Artificial Muscle Ring Oscillator
Dielectric elastomer artificialmuscles have great potential for the creation of novel pumps, motors, and circuitry. Control of these devices requires an oscillator, either as a driver or clock circuit, which is typically provided as part of bulky, rigid, and costly external electronics. Oscillator circuits based on piezo-resistive dielectric elastomer switch technology provide a way to embed oscillatory behavior into artificial muscle devices. Previous oscillator circuits were not digital, able to function without a spring mass system, able to self-start, or suitable for miniaturization. In this paper we present an artificial muscle ring oscillator that meets these needs. The oscillator can self-start, create a stable 1Hz square wave output, and continue to function despite degradation of the switching elements. Additionally, the oscillator provides a platform against which the performance of different dielectric elastomer switch materials can be benchmarked.

Hanna, Rema, Vivi Alatas, Abhijit Banerjee, Benjamin Olken, Ririn Purnamasari, and Matthew Wai-Poi. 2013. "Does Elite Capture Matter? Local Elites And Targeted Welfare Programs In Indonesia".
This paper investigates the impact of elite capture on the allocation of targeted government welfare programs in Indonesia, using both a high-stakes field experiment that varied the extent of elite influence and non-experimental data on a variety of existing government transfer programs. Conditional on their consumption level, there is little evidence that village elites and their relatives are more likely to receive aid programs than non-elites. Looking more closely, however, we find that this overall result masks a difference between different types of elites: those holding formal leadership positions are more likely to receive benefits, while informal leaders are actually less likely to. We show that capture by formal elites occurs during the distribution of benefits under the programs, and not during the processes when the beneficiary lists are determined by the central government. However, while elite capture exists, the welfare losses it creates appear quite small: since formal elites and their relatives are only 9 percent richer than non-elites, are at most about 8 percentage points more likely to receive benefits than non-elites, and represent at most 15 percent of the population, eliminating elite capture entirely would improve the welfare gains from these programs by less than one percent.

St. Paul, Minnesota-Introduction:
Anika Bowie, a 31-year-old entrepreneur, drives through her community, witnessing the aftermath—buildings burned, reduced to rubble.
This daily reminder of racial injustice and the pressing issue of affordable housing fueled Bowie's determination to make a difference.
Now, in a groundbreaking moment for the city, St. Paul has elected its first all-woman city council, a majority of whom are people of color.
This transformative shift holds the promise of breaking down barriers and amplifying the voices of those who have felt unheard.
Building a Representative Council:
Anika Bowie, newly elected to represent Ward 1, expressed her satisfaction with the historic election, emphasizing the reward that follows relentless hard work.
As she envisions breaking down barriers, Bowie recognizes the opportunity to give a voice to those who have faced challenges and felt marginalized in their own city.
Her commitment to tangible change reflects a collective enthusiasm among the newly elected council members to address the pressing issues affecting St. Paul.
Councilwoman-elect Hwa Jeong Kim, who will represent Ward 5, attributes the election success to the diverse experiences of the candidates.
Kim, also the executive director of a nonprofit promoting civic engagement, sees the victory as an endorsement of a shared vision, values, and the necessary skill set to lead the city toward a bold future.
Importantly, the election of women of color resonates with the diverse demographic makeup of St. Paul, reflecting the city's commitment to representation.
Diversity Reflecting Reality:
Minnesota's capital city boasts a demographic mosaic, with approximately 55% White residents, 19% Asian residents, 16% Black residents, and nearly 9% Hispanic residents, according to the US Census estimates from July 2022.
The newly elected council members mirror this diversity, offering a promising prospect for more inclusive governance.
Kim, as a Korean American, is particularly encouraged that the council will now be more representative of the city's residents, embracing a variety of perspectives and backgrounds.
Addressing Local Concerns:
In Ward 3, newly elected councilwoman Saura Jost, an Indian American civil engineer, brings a professional background that aligns with the pressing needs of her constituents.
Infrastructure is a top concern among residents, and Jost believes that having individuals with expertise, especially civil engineers, in public office is crucial to addressing these challenges.
Her goal is to leverage her skills to contribute solutions to issues such as road maintenance, reflecting the practical approach the new council hopes to bring to governance.
Before the recent elections of Cheniqua Johnson and Anika Bowie, records indicate that only one other Black woman had served on the St. Paul city council.
Cheniqua Johnson, who now represents Ward 7, brings a wealth of experience from her previous roles in local government and as a congressional staffer.
Her focus is on amplifying multiple voices and diversifying the narrative at City Hall, challenging the predominant voices that have dominated the last decade.
Cheniqua Johnson sees this historic moment as an inspiration for others sitting on the fence about running for office.
Her message is clear: "We need more people doing this work."
Johnson's passion for representation and inclusivity underscores the broader commitment of the newly elected council to motivate others to engage in the democratic process and contribute to positive change in their communities.
As St. Paul, Minnesota, prepares for its first-ever all-woman city council, the anticipation for change and progress is palpable. The diverse backgrounds, experiences, and expertise of the newly elected council members signal a shift towards a more inclusive and representative governance.
With a focus on addressing local concerns, breaking down barriers, and inspiring others to participate in civic leadership, St. Paul is poised for a transformative era under the leadership of these dynamic women.
Come January 2024, when the new city council is sworn in, the eyes of the city and the nation will be on St. Paul as it embarks on this historic journey towards a more equitable and diverse future.


text:
This term is American, but of unknown origin, referring to a vague system of merit points used to curry favor with some authority. Evidence indicates that it was part of military slang during the WWII-Korean War era,1 but the earliest known use in print is from the Los Angeles Times of 15 March 1951:
You don't know about brownie points? All my buddies keep score. In fact every married male should know about 'em. It's a way of figuring where you stand with the little woman—favor or disfavor. Started way back in the days of the leprechauns, I suppose, long before there were any doghouses.2
This citation indicates that it comes from the sense of brownie meaning an elf or fairy. So earning brownie points would be a way to curry favor with the spirits. But this is far from certain.
Other possible explanations include that brownie point is a reference to the junior branch of the Girl Scouts, the Brownies. This would also explain the soldier slang; one can easily see soldiers using the term from the Girl Scouts to mock army procedures and orders. The earliest known use of brownie point in the context of the Girl Scouts is from the Modesto Bee and News-Herald of 17 June 1952:
Mrs. Rose presented a Brownie bracelet to Linda Hickle, first prize winner in a Brownie point contest.3
Alternatively, some less likely suggestions include that it goes back to WWII food rationing, where brown points could be accumulated to purchase meats and fats. Going back a bit further, in the 1930s the Curtis Publishing Company, publishers of the Saturday Evening Post, awarded green and brown vouchers, known as brownies to its delivery boys, although there is no evidence of anyone calling these brownie points. Or it could be a reference to brown nosing, a vulgar term for currying favor. Finally, and least likely, it could have originated in railroad slang. George Brown of the Fall Brook Railway invented a system of demerits for his employees at the end of the 19th century. By 1942, these demerits were known as brownie points. But since a demerit is the opposite of the general sense, this seems unlikely. More likely is that the railroad slang term was altered and adopted from the more general one and conflated with Brown's system of demerits.4

the Document
Open the Document.swift file. Change the read function to the following:
override func read(from data: Data, ofType typeName: String) throws {
 if let fileContents = String(data: data,encoding:.utf8) {
 markdown = fileContents
The code takes the Data object from the saved document and converts it to a Swift string. If there is saved text, set the document's contents to the saved text.
Fill the Text View When Opening a Document
The last step is to fill the text view with the document's contents when you open a document. Override the viewDidAppear function in the text view controller and set the text view's contents to the document's contents.
override func viewDidAppear() {
 if let document = getDocument() {
 textView.string = document.markdown
 updateLivePreview(text: textView.string)
While you're setting the text view contents you should also update the web view so it shows the HTML preview. That's why there's a call to updateLivePreview. If you didn't have the call, the preview would be blank until you typed in the text view.
Now when you run the project you should have a basic Markdown editor. You can create documents, preview the HTML contents, save documents, and open documents.


slow temp rises
Stephen Richard
You have fused a piece of glass that is now 6 or maybe even 9 mm thick, so you have to go slow for two reasons at least. 1. you have to give the glass the opportunity to get hot all the way through. 2. fast temperature rises lead to breakages either on the way up or during the slump.
So a rise of ca. 100 C or 150 C is as fast as you want to go. When using slow temperature rises you often can achieve the work at a lower temperature, and with a longer soak are certain to get the work done. Unless the glass is all of one colour/sheet all across itself, fast heating will lead to the darker and softer (not the same) becoming plastic before the rest of the sheet and even before the bottom is soft enough to begin to slump. That is when the weight of the glass above can split the bottom without completely breaking the piece.

ProcessMessages (Delphi)
From RAD Studio Code Examples
Jump to: navigation, search
Description
This example requires two buttons that are long enough to accommodate lengthy captions on a form. When you click the button with the caption Ignore Messages, the code begins to generate a long series of random numbers. If you try to resize the form while the handler is running, nothing happens until the handler is finished. When you click the button with the caption Process Messages, more random numbers are generated, but the application can still respond to a series of events, such as resizing the form and printing text. Note: How quickly these event handlers run depends on the microprocessor of your computer. A message appears on the form informing you when the handler has finished executing.
Code
const magicnumber = 500;
procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
 Button1.Caption := 'Ignore Messages';
 Button2.Caption := 'Process Messages';

While the amount that someone spends on alcohol while visiting Yokohama may vary from person to person, on average a person spends $19 per day on alcoholic beverages.
Alcoholic beverages can often be a significant portion of a traveler's budget, and the costs can vary greatly from person to person. In Hiroshima, the average amount that a visitor spends on alcoholic beverages per day is $13.
When we compare the travel costs of actual travelers between Yokohama and Hiroshima, we can see that Yokohama is more expensive. And not only is Hiroshima much less expensive, but it is actually a significantly cheaper destination. So, traveling to Hiroshima would let you spend less money overall. Or, you could decide to spend more money in Hiroshima and be able to afford a more luxurious travel style by staying in nicer hotels, eating at more expensive restaurants, taking tours, and experiencing more activities. The same level of travel in Yokohama would naturally cost you much more money, so you would probably want to keep your budget a little tighter in Yokohama than you might in Hiroshima.

ETV before EMR
With the launch of electronic medical records (EMR/WakeOne) on September 22, it might be interesting to see how patient records were stored and transported in the past at the Medical Center.
The Electric Track Vehicle (ETV), dubbed "record runner" and described as an "oversized Lionel train," was the tunnel in which records were transported through the Medical Center. When installed in 1992, it saved about 10 to 15 minutes off each round trip.
Records were loaded into a "car", as shown by Dean Bates, a Medical Records file librarian, then transported. Initially, 12 cars rode the rails each day with 425 records.
Prior to the ETV, vans ferried clerks and their carts to Medical Records storage which looked like this in 1948.
Mr. Bates was featured in Around the Medical Center in 1992. Come visit Dorothy Carpenter Medical Archives to explore the history of the Medical Center in publications and artifacts.

Vestland fylkeskommune, the regional road administration that owns the regional roads in Vestland in Norway, made a demo installation of the Actibump system in Bergen, Norway. They have now evaluated the system and its effects from a number of angles. Their conclusions are very positive and in short some of them are:
- Comparisons between speed measurements collected before and after installation show a significant drop in speed at the Actibump.
- Speed measurements ca 80 meters after the installation show a lower reduction of speed.
- Emergency organisations are positive to the system.
- The public transport organisation has had no complaints about the system.
- Very few complaints from the public.
- There have been no observations of bicyclists crossing the hatch, but there have been some situations observed where bicyclists enter the bike lane right before the Actibump.
- There have been observations of rapid decelerations and evasive actions on a motorcycle but it happened in a well-controlled manner.
- There have been no observations or complaints about undesired actions connected to the system.
- Higher cost than the usual speed reducing measures but added value in the shape of traffic data.

OBJECTIVES: The Transtheoretical Model of behavior change (TTM) postulates that behavior change is a process involving progress through five distinct stages of change (SOC). One of the key components for progress to a later stage is decisional balance (pros and cons of changing to the target behavior). The goal of the present study is to test the two dimensions of decisional balance as postulated in the TTM in the context of exercising behavior.
METHODS: The analyses are based on data from an online survey of 266 freshman students at the University of Zurich; participants self-reported their frequency of exercising and their weighing of the importance of 49 pros and cons of exercising.
RESULTS: The results indicate that a two-dimensional solution of decisional balance is insufficient. The analysis of pros and cons of exercising yielded a seven-factor solution with in part different progressions through the SOC.
CONCLUSIONS: With the subdivision into different pros and cons, intervention programs can be developed that better match the needs of participants in terms of fostering and decreasing the most important pros and cons of exercising.


Running Cortex with Cassandra
This guide covers how to run a single local Cortex instance - with the chunks storage engine - storing time series chunks and index in Cassandra.
In this guide we're going to:
 1. Setup a locally running Cassandra
 2. Configure Cortex to store chunks and index on Cassandra
 3. Configure Prometheus to send series to Cortex
 4. Configure Grafana to visualise metrics
Setup a locally running Cassandra
Run Cassandra with the following command:
docker run -d --name cassandra --rm -p 9042:9042 cassandra:3.11
Use Docker to execute the Cassandra Query Language (CQL) shell in the container:
docker exec -it <container_id> cqlsh
Create a new Cassandra keyspace for Cortex metrics:
A keyspace is an object that is used to hold column families, user defined types. A keyspace is like RDBMS database which contains column families, indexes, user defined types.
CREATE KEYSPACE cortex WITH replication = {'class':'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor' : 1};
Configure Cortex to store chunks and index on Cassandra
Now, we have to configure Cortex to store the chunks and index in Cassandra. Create a config file called single-process-config.yaml, then add the content below. Make sure to replace the following placeholders:
 - LOCALHOST: Addresses of your Cassandra instance. This can accept multiple addresses by passing them as comma separated values.
 - KEYSPACE: The name of the Cassandra keyspace used to store the metrics.
single-process-config.yaml
# Configuration for running Cortex in single-process mode.
# This should not be used in production. It is only for getting started
# and development.
# Disable the requirement that every request to Cortex has a
# X-Scope-OrgID header. 'fake' will be substituted in instead.

The latest tag is not published for the Cortex docker image. Visit quay.io/repository/cortexproject/cortex to find the latest stable version tag and use it in the command below (currently it is v1.2.0).
Run Cortex using the latest stable version:
docker run -d --name=cortex -v $(pwd)/single-process-config.yaml:/etc/single-process-config.yaml -p 9009:9009 quay.io/cortexproject/cortex:v1.2.0 -config.file=/etc/single-process-config.yaml
In case you prefer to run the master version, please follow this documentation on how to build Cortex from source.
Configure the index and chunk table options
In order to create index and chunk tables on Cassandra, Cortex will use the default table options of your Cassandra. If you want to configure the table options, use the storage.cassandra.table_options property or cassandra.table-options flag. This configuration property is just string type and this value used as plain text on WITH option of table creation query. It is recommended to enclose the value of table_options in double-quotes because you should enclose strings of table options in quotes on Cassandra.
For example, suppose the name of index(or chunk) table is 'test_table'. Details about column definitions of the table are omitted. If no table options configured, then Cortex will generate the query to create a table without a WITH clause to use default table options:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS cortex.test_table (...)
If table options configured with table_options as below:
storage:
 cassandra:
 addresses: 127.0.0.1
 keyspace: cortex
 table_options: "gc_grace_seocnds = 86400
 AND comments = 'this is a test table'
 AND COMPACT STORAGE
 AND caching = { 'keys': 'ALL', 'rows_per_partition': 1024 }"
Then Cortex will generate the query to create a table with a WITH clause as below:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS cortex.test_table (...) WITH gc_grace_seocnds = 86400 AND comments = 'this is a test table' AND COMPACT STORAGE AND caching = { 'keys': 'ALL', 'rows_per_partition': 1024 }
Available settings of the table options on Cassandra depend on Cassandra version or storage which is compatible. For details about table options, see the official document of storage you are using.
WARNING: Make sure there are no incorrect options and mistakes. Misconfigured table options may cause a failure in creating a table by Table Manager at runtime and seriously affect your Cortex.
Configure Prometheus to send series to Cortex
Now that Cortex is up, it should be running on http://localhost:9009.
Add the following section to your Prometheus configuration file. This will configure the remote write to send metrics to Cortex.
remote_write:
 - url: http://localhost:9009/api/prom/push
Configure Grafana to visualise metrics
Run grafana to visualise metrics from Cortex:
docker run -d --name=grafana -p 3000:3000 grafana/grafana
Add a data source in Grafana by selecting Prometheus as the data source type and use the Cortex URL to query metrics: http://localhost:9009/api/prom.
Finally, You can monitor Cortex's reads & writes by creating the dashboard. You can follow this documentation to do so.

Groene Wissel is the name of several shorter paths in the Netherlands. They usually have their starting point in the center of a city, often a railway station, and from there they explore the outskirts and eventually leave the urban area alltogether. From this outer orbit the trails return to their origin, choosing a different route. Distance is usually between 10 and 20 kilometer.

How to Increase RevPAR: 3 Key Strategies for Hotels
Average daily rate (ADR) is an important metric to look at, but don't forget about Revenue per available room (RevPAR). When you think about how to increase RevPAR, you can also solve problems with hotel income revenue in general. Since RevPAR considers only pure room revenue, and not ancillary income from services and amenities like food and beverage, this metric makes it easier for you to see the value of every room at your hotel. Certain upselling options, such as room upgrades, do impact RevPAR directly and should be looked at carefully when evaluating your numbers.
Why You Should Focus on an Increase in RevPAR
RevPAR is one of the most critical factors in building positive hotel revenue. When you understand the power of RevPAR, you can price your rooms more effectively and send out better room upgrade offers. RevPAR is a significant metric that all hoteliers should be using to track business. To boost profit, you need to increase RevPAR.
How do you measure hotel RevPAR?
General and revenue managers calculate RevPAR daily, monthly, or yearly. There are two commonly used formulas to do so: Rooms revenue/available rooms or Average daily rate x occupancy rate.
Focusing on 100% occupancy rate and ignoring the average daily rate is a bad idea. Rather, hotel managers should determine what profit they wish to make from their rooms, and then identify projected RevPAR and analyze room pricing in consideration of RevPAR. When you look at RevPAR as an indicator of your business' success or weakness, you can then plan a strategy for your room rates and room upsell options that would bring in a higher profit. Increased occupancy and good RevPAR indicate your hotel is doing great.
Options to Increase RevPAR
How, specifically, do you increase RevPAR? There are many ways to increase RevPAR and notice an immediate effect.
1. Implement smart revenue management. Selling the right rooms to the right guests, at the right time and the right price is smart revenue management and a good strategy for increasing RevPAR. Hotel revenue management is not only about setting prices as supply and demand dictates. It also means adopting technology tools that allow you to manage occupancy-smart pricing, and smart upselling, on their own. With intelligent revenue management tools, such as ROOMDEX Upgrade Optimizer, you just categorize occupancy into segments and then price each segment. You allow Upgrade Optimizer to intelligently take care of pricing changes for upgrades based on varying occupancy.
2. Consider your pricing strategies. RevPAR and Average Daily Rate are intertwined, so if you increase ADR, you also increase RevPAR. Hoteliers need to put varying pricing strategies into place for low and peak seasons, as well as for weekdays and weekends. Employing varying room rates for specific occupancy segments and room types is effective too, such as for business or leisure guests, and families. ROOMDEX Upgrade Optimizer lets you program varying prices for specific room types that you offer pre-arrival after a reservation has been made. This is a high-impact way to capture additional revenue to boost ADR and RevPAR.
3. Balance occupancy percentage and ADR. RevPAR depends both on occupancy and Average Daily Rate. They work in sync, so try not to aim for 100% occupancy to the detriment of ADR. Sometimes, you can play around with ADR to get more revenue than you would if you had 100% occupancy at a reduced rate. Again, ROOMDEX Upgrade Optimizer is designed to get you the highest yield per fulfilled room stay, with features like room type upselling.
There are several other ways to increase RevPAR, including capturing a greater percentage of your reservations through direct bookings. You should also pay attention to cancellation rate reduction and focus on persona marketing. Understanding how all of these factors work together is the key to boosting overall income and beating the competition.

The methodological design of the proposed hybrid SETMOS logic circuits is compatible with 22- nm CMOS bias and process. The widely acclaimed Mahapatra-IonescuBannerjee (MIB) model is modified to implement the proposed SG-SET and hybrid SETMOS logic circuits using Verilog-A. Logic inverter, two-input NAND, NOR, AND, OR, EX-OR, and EX-NOR logic gates are simulated at room temperature using novel SETMOS hybridization. The proposed work is compared with the 22-nm CMOS counterpart (simulated with the same setup). We found that the reduction in total power dissipation by 98.04%, 96.45%, 94.65%, 93.7%, 92.63%, 93.52%, 95.57% using hybrid SETMOS NAND, NOR, AND, EX-OR and EXOR gates than 22 nm CMOS logic gates. The proposed work is compared with other works of literature. We also examined the robustness of the proposed logic circuits against temperature variations from 77 K to 500 K.

MAXIMUM ROTATION RATE: Each electrode tip model used with the Pine Research MSR Rotator has a maximum rotation rate. Do not the exceed maximum rotation rate when working with rotating electrodes.
The Pine Research MSR Rotator is the most popular rotating electrode configuration worldwide. This flexible electrochemical instrument may be used with Rotating Disk Electrodes (RDE), Rotating Ring-Disk Electrodes (RRDE), and Rotating Cylinder Electrodes (RCE). The MSR Rotator bears both the CE and ETL marks and is compatible with most international power configuration standards.
The rotation rate of the electrode may be adjusted using a control knob on the front panel of the motor control unit, or alternately, the rotation rate can be controlled via an analog control signal provided by a potentiostat or by a third-party waveform generator. The rotation rate may be viewed using the LCD display on the front panel. The rotation rate is adjustable over a range from 50 to 10,000 RPM and is accurate to within 1% of the reading on the display. A rotation rate may also be monitored via an output signal proportional to the rotation rate which is available on the front panel.
The rotation rate may be controlled and modulated by a sine wave, square wave, or other externally generated waveform. The outstanding acceleration characteristics of the motor and its control circuitry allow the rotation rate to follow the control waveform with very little error. This feature is particularly desirable for techniques such as Hydrodynamic Modulation Voltammetry (HMV) .
The rotator motor position is easily raised or lowered with respect to the cell platform, making immersion or removal of the rotating electrode tip quick and easy. The enclosure base is made from chemically resistant polypropylene, and the large enclosure window provides a good view of rotating electrode during operation. (A smaller base is available separately for using the rotator in a glove box or fume hood.)
Electrode connections are made to the rotating shaft using silver-carbon brushes. There are two contacts – the red is for the disk, and the blue is for the ring.

We report controllable manipulation of slow and fast light in a whispering-gallery-mode microtoroid resonator fabricated from Erbium (Er3+) doped silica. We observe continuous transition of the coupling between the fiber-taper waveguide and the microresonator from undercoupling to critical coupling and then to overcoupling regimes by increasing the pump power even though the spatial distance between the resonator and the waveguide was kept fixed. This, in turn, enables switching from fast to slow light and vice versa just by increasing the optical gain. An enhancement of delay of two-fold over the passive silica resonator (no optical gain) was observed in the slow light regime. Moreover, we show dynamic pulse splitting and its control in slow/fast light systems using optical gain.

Healthy eating is now a great deal more popular than it used to be and rightfully so. Poor diet is a leading factor in health problems such as heart disease and hypertension which can put a drain on the economy. No matter where you look, people are encouraging you to live a healthier way of life but but then, you are also being encouraged to rely on convenience foods that can affect your health in a terrible way. In all probability, most people think that it takes a lot of work to eat healthily and that they will have to drastically alter their way of life. In reality, however, merely making a few minor changes can positively affect everyday eating habits.
You can make similar alterations with the oils that you use for cooking. Olive oil contains monounsaturated fat which can help to lower bad cholesterol. Olive oil is also a great source of Vitamin E which has a lot of benefits and is also good for your skin. It might be that you already feel that you eat fruit and veggies but it can be worthwhile considering how fresh these are depending on where you get these. Organic foods are an excellent choice and will reduce any possible exposure to harmful chemicals. Looking for a local supplier of fresh vegetables and fruits will give you the choice of consuming foods that still contain almost all of the nutrients which are often lost when produce has been kept in storage before it is sold.

Mount Desert Rock
Mount Desert Rock is a remote, treeless island situated approximately 25 nautical miles south of College of the Atlantic, in Bar Harbor, Maine. Since the early 19th century the island has had a light tower, and various buildings to house light-keeper families. In the 1950s the island was occupied by the United States Coastguard. Now it is the home of the Edward McC. Blair Marine Research Station.
In the early 1970s, students, staff, and faculty from College of the Atlantic visited the island. They noted that the site was a prime location for marine mammal research. Both Mount Desert Rock and the nearby Inner Schoodic Ridges are areas of upwelling, creating localized zones of high biological productivity. Species commonly sighted included humpback (Megaptera novaeangliae), finback (Balaenoptera physalus), and northern right (Eubalaena glacialis) whales, harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), common (Delphinus delphis) and white-sided dolphin (Lagenorhynchus acutus), and harbor (Phoca vitulina) and gray (Halichoerus grypus) seals.
In cooperation with the US Coastguard, Allied Whale, the marine mammal research division of College of the Atlantic, seasonally occupied Mount Desert Rock for several decades. Mount Desert Rock became the base of summer operations for Allied Whale, and provided a foundation for important studies such as the development of photo-identification techniques for humpback and finback whales. In the mid 1990s, occupation of the island ceased as the US Coastguard reviewed the need for Mount Desert Rock as part of the network of lighthouses off the coast of Maine. In 1996, College of the Atlantic acquired the island from the US Coastguard. Although the Coastguard maintains right of access to the aids to navigation equipment on the island, College of the Atlantic is responsible for the buildings and maintenance of the structures on Mount Desert Rock.
College of the Atlantic continues to maintain an active presence on Mount Desert Rock. Recently, Allied Whale has initiated a five-year study of marine mammal populations in the northern Gulf of Maine, using Mount Desert Rock as a base of operations. Members of Allied Whale, together with staff, faculty and administration of the college, continue to spearhead the development of Mount Desert Rock as a fully operational research station that will eventually expand its research repertoire beyond marine mammal science. As a first step in this expansion, and in recognition of his financial and spiritual support to Allied Whale and College of the Atlantic, the field station was recently dedicated as the Edward McC. Blair Marine Research Station.
Mount Desert Rock has 4 buildings perched precariously on its rocky ledges; the boathouse, light tower, generator shed and light-keeper's house. The boathouse has space for 4 research inflatable boats, and is rigged with a hydraulic hauling system and chain hoist. The light tower reaches over 70 ft in height above sea level, and has two exterior platforms provide excellent views 360Â° around the island. The generator shed is currently used as an equipment room; the college plans to convert this space into a wet-lab. Finally, the house itself has accommodations for 20 researchers/students, 2 classrooms, a recreation room, kitchen and dining room, and radio room.
Power is currently provided by a small gas generator supplying a bank of deep-cycle batteries that distribute 110V mains power via an inverter. Plans exist to convert this system to a solar array, with the generator supplying emergency power only.
Rainwater is collected via a roof collection system, is stored in two large cisterns in the basement of the building and provides a non-potable freshwater source for bathing, washing, etc.. Drinking water currently must be shipped in, although the College has proposed to install a desalination system.
College of the Atlantic recently made contact with former inhabitants of the island, Wilbur and Shirley York, who lived on the Rock in the late 1920s as children. Allied Whale arranged for Wilbur and Shirley to revisit Mount Desert Rock in Summer 2000. An article reviewing this visit can be found here, from the Bar Harbor Times (secondarily published in the Ellsworth American).
Mount Desert Rock is ideally located for offshore studies of marine mammals and seabirds. Thus the Rock is a perfect base-camp for members of Allied Whale, the marine mammal research group affiliate with College of the Atlantic. Allied Whale's mission is to be a center of excellence for marine mammal studies, while simultaneously providing the best experiential education possible for undergraduate and graduate students interested in a career in marine mammalogy. As such, Mount Desert Rock is an integral part of that mission, providing an offshore research platform that permits the study of marine mammals in their natural environment, while also providing a communal, educative and enriching atmosphere that promotes the growth of student' skills and knowledge.
Current research projects, with senior investigators, include:
A five-year study of the foraging ecology of balaenopterids in the northern Gulf of Maine - Dr. S. Todd (COA), D. Dendanto (UMO), and J. Allen (COA)
Behavioral interactions between harbor and gray seals - S. Renner, Dr. J. Gilbert (UMO), and Dr. S. Todd (COA/UMO adjunct)
Photo-identification of finback whales using digital video - Dr. S. Todd (COA), D. Dendanto (UMO), C.Vashro (COA), and J. Allen (COA)
The North Atlantic humpback whale catalog - R. Seton (COA), and J. Allen (COA)
The North Atlantic finback whale catalog - D. Dendanto (UMO) and C. Vashro (COA
Guano tolerant plants of Mount Desert Rock - Dr. Nishanta Rajakaruna (COA) and Nathaniel Pope (COA)
Although College of the Atlantic owns two field stations in the Gulf of Maine, Mount Desert Rock is located furthest offshore, and represents possibly the most remote and isolated learning conditions that the college has to offer. Classes on Mount Desert Rock focus on an experiential educationï¿½€ï¿½not only learning the syllabus of a particular class, but also learning how to become part of a close-knit self-reliant community that depends upon its members to ensure the smooth running of the research station. Thus, a student that enrolls in a class on MDR is also signing up for a lesson in island life and community living. By the end of their stay on Mount Desert Rock, most students never want to leave! The isolated and remote lifestyle can be addictive, and the opportunity to study wildlife in situ, in an offshore environment, is a unique opportunity unmatched by most other undergraduate institutions.
Courses offered on Mount Desert Rock by College of the Atlantic fall into two categories: those offered by the summer graduate/continuing education program, and undergraduate classes offered by the college during the normal school year.
In summer 2000, College of the Atlantic offered classes at Mount Desert Rock for the graduate courses Introduction to Biological Oceanography (Dr. S. Todd, COA), and Whales, dolphins and seals (Dr. G. Stone, NEAQ). In the same season, the college also provided the undergraduate class Field Studies in Marine Mammalogy (Dr. S. Todd, COA), and also hosted a class in Island Life (Dr. J. Anderson, COA). Plans to use Mount Desert Rock for classes in the undergraduate offering Introduction to Oceanography (Dr. S. Todd, COA) are ongoing.

Does personality moderate reaction and adaptation to major life events? Evidence from the British Household Panel Survey
A nationally representative panel study of British households was used to examine the extent to which Big Five personality traits interact with the experience of major life events (marriage, childbirth, unemployment, and widowhood) to predict increases and decreases in life satisfaction following the event. Results show that major life events are associated with changes in life satisfaction, and some of these changes are very long lasting. Personality traits did not have consistent moderating effects on the association between stressful life events and life satisfaction over time.

Quick Answer: Can You Get Hepatitis From Toilet Water?
How far can toilet water splash?
15 feetPhilip Tierno, a microbiologist at New York University, says that aerosol plumes can reach as high as 15 feet..
Can you get a yeast infection from toilet water?
It's unlikely that a yeast infection can be transmitted directly through bath water, but there are some caveats that you should keep in mind. As a rule, showers are better than baths when you're in the process of treating a yeast infection.
Which hepatitis is spread through water?
Wells, if properly installed and maintained, provide a safe source of water in the U.S. When any water source, including private wells, is contaminated with feces from infected humans, the water can potentially spread the Hepatitis A virus.
Can Hep C virus survive in water?
How long can hep C live in liquid?
They found that in a liquid environment, HCV was detectable for up to five months at lower temperatures. that HCV could survive in a liquid medium for two days at 98ºF (body temperature),16 days at 77 ºF and at least six weeks at 40ºF (average refrigerator temperature).
Is it OK to drink toilet water?
What STD can you get from a toilet seat?
Which hepatitis is not curable?
Can you get chlamydia from toilet water?
It can also be passed by a pregnant woman to her baby. Chlamydia cannot be passed on through casual contact, such as kissing and hugging, or from sharing baths, towels, swimming pools, toilet seats or cutlery.
Can you get diseases from toilet water?
Don't worry. HIV, syphilis, and other sexually transmitted infections are not transmitted by toilets, toilet water, or toilet brushes. Even if you have been biting your nails, you do not need to worry about getting an STI this way.
Is it bad if toilet water splashes on you?
Dr. Cullins warns, "Anything that brings bacteria in contact with the vulva and/or urethra can cause a UTI. This can happen when germs enter the urethra during sex, unwashed hands touching genitals, or even when toilet water back splashes." Yeah, you can get a UTI from the bacteria in toilet water back splash.
How many germs are in toilet water?
After swabbing the same four areas on five separate toilet bowls found in five different homes, the team found that on average, the toilets contained 125.55 colony-forming units of bacteria per square inch. That means that on a standard, 16.5-inch toilet bowl there could be more than 34,000 units of bacteria in total.
Can hepatitis B spread by toilet seat?
There is no risk of infection from normal social contact. You cannot catch hepatitis B or Hepatitis C from a toilet seat, by touching or hugging an infected person. Crockery and cutlery used by someone with Hepatitis B or C can be washed in hot soapy water or dishwasher in the normal way.
Can Hep B survive in water?
How long does Hep C live on clothes?
Is there bacteria in toilet water?
"Since the water in the toilet bowl contains bacteria and other microbes from feces, urine and maybe even vomit, there will be some in the water droplets. Every gram of human feces contains billions and billions of bacteria, as well as viruses and even some fungi."
What organ is affected by hepatitis?

How to Mix Glaze
 1. Make sure we have all of the materials you plan to use BEFORE mixing them together
 2. Clean two 5 gallon buckets. Make sure they are really clean! If you can find the 6 gallon bucket, use that to dry mix your ingredients
 3. Use the small triple beam scale and balance it so that the pointer is lined up with the "0" when only the container you are measuring in is sitting on the scale.
 5. Measure your materials out, keeping in mind that you will need to keep track of what you are measuring on a scrap piece of paper. For example, if you need 2700 grams of Custer Feldspar, you set the scale for 500 grams and weigh that out 5 times (making a note of each 500 gram weighing). Then do another weighing at 200 to equal 2700.
 6. Put all of your dry materials into one bucket.
 7. Dry off the glaze mixer on the end of the drill and use that to dry mix the materials until it looks like it's all the same color.
 8. Add water, mixing as you add it. Keep in mind that it's much easier to ADD water than take it out!
 9. Put the rotary sieve on the other clean bucket and sieve the glaze into that bucket.
 10. Clean the first bucket out, then sieve the glaze back into the first bucket. Sieving the glaze twice helps to mix the glaze thoroughly. You may need to add some water as the sieving process sometimes makes the glaze thicker.
 11. Thoroughly clean the sieve and any tools you used to mix the glaze.
 12. Follow the directions below to make sure you add the right amount of glaze.
The triple beam scale should balance like this
