Residents of the mountain town of Monteleone di Spoleto held a noisy protest in front of the Italian Culture Ministry in Rome yesterday, calling for the return of an Etruscan chariot that's a centerpiece of the newly opened Greek and Roman galleries at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The 2,600-year-old chariot was discovered in Monteleone in 1902 and sold to the Met the next year. Monteleone officials now say it was illegally whisked out of the country. Some 200 people -- about a third of the town's population -- blew whistles and waved placards demanding that the Italian state, which does not support their claim, join their cause. The Met says that because the chariot (detail, right) was bought more than a century ago, the statute of limitations has expired. Nando Durastanti, Monteleone's mayor, who led the delegation, said the Met had ''closed itself off'' to requests to negotiate the artifact's return. ''Mind you, they've been very busy with the opening of the galleries,'' he said by telephone. ''They probably have other things on their minds than our chariot.'' ELISABETTA POVOLEDO

RNT File Extension - What is it and how to open RNT format - Review
rnt
Opening RNT files
Have a problem opening a .RNT file? We collect information about file formats and can explain what RNT files are. Additionally we recommend software suitable for opening or converting such files.
What is the .RNT file type?
The .rnt filename extension is primarily associated with the RightNote Notebook (.rnt) file type used by RightNote, a freeware/paid information organizer and note-taking tool from Bauer Apps. RightNote uses a hierarchically structured data-tree approach and allows to create different types of notes (spreadsheets, links, webpages, etc.) and save them in notebooks. Each notebook (.rnt) is an SQLite 3.x database that can hold multiple data trees and use note-based or file-based data protection. Even RightNote's own user manual provided as an .rnt notebook ("RNUserGuide.rnt").
Such notebook (.rnt) files can be natively opened in RightNote, and multiple notebooks can be opened at the same time. From RightNote, every notebook (.rnt) can be printed, published for web, or exported in several standard formats. Apart from that, the contents and structure of any RightNote notebook (.rnt) can be easily explored with an SQLite database browser.
In previous versions of Renoise, a commercial cross-platform Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) product of E.Müller et al. (Renoise), the .rnt extension was used in association with the Renoise DSP Chain (.rnt) file type/format. The .rnt file represented a chain of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) effects and settings that could be applied as a whole to a sound channel in Renoise. In recent versions of Renoise, a different XML-based format and a different extension (.xrnt) are used for DSP chains (now referred to as Effect Chain presets).
In the scope of the genetic database maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), the .rnt extension is associated with the RNA Table (.rnt) file type/format. Used as part of the NCBI-adopted organism genome description dataset, each .rnt file contains a structural ribonucleic acid (RNA) table for a particular genome. Such .rnt files are text-based and require special genetic-analysis software for meaningful processing.
Software to open or convert RNT files
You can open RNT files with the following programs:

In this article, you will find tips on how to use price tracking software in the Household equipment market. You will find insights for online shops that want to stay competitive in this market.
We will cover the following topics:
- What are the characteristics of the household equipment market?
- What are the challenges related to price monitoring and dynamic pricing (repricing)?
- Which functionalities and reports provided in the price tracking tool are crucial?
- How to start monitoring prices systematically?
1. What are the characteristics of the household equipment market?
Household equipment (home appliances) industry covers products which are used in a household. It can be divided into:
- Major appliances, e.g. refrigerators, washing machines
- Small appliances, e.g. coffeemakers, vacuum cleaners, blenders
According to Statista, the sales of major appliances are ~2x higher than small appliances sales.
What is characteristic of this market?
- You can find household appliances in almost every home – in Germany, 83% of households own a coffee machine, in Spain – 77% have a toaster.
- The market is expected to grow with CAGR 4.4%. The growth will come from both new users and customers buying new models of already used appliances.
- A majority of customers in several countries will buy household products online more often after the COVID-19. China was the only analyzed country in which there was a decrease of respondents who said that they buy furnishings and appliances online. In some countries, such as Spain, there was an increase of even almost 50%.
- Smart appliances have been gaining popularity since 2012. Hence, digitalization has been playing a bigger role for manufacturers; on the other hand, online shops need to use proper product descriptions to explain all the advanced features.
- The market is consolidated. However, to be aware of new brands and products on the market, an online shop could acquire a Competitor's Assortment Report thanks to which it can track new products in their competitors' offer.
- Some of the most popular brands in this industry are: Midea Group, Whirlpool, Electrolux, BSH Hausgeräte
2. What are the challenges related to price monitoring and dynamic pricing (repricing)?
As we showed before, online sales have big importance in the household appliances sector which is a trend which many companies operating in this segment have to adapt to. And what is the most important factor for customers when they buy online? As several researches show, price is the most relevant factor for customers when purchasing online.
It means that an online shop which wants to be popular among customers should offer competitive prices. Without a price monitoring tool it is almost impossible to track all the offered SKUs in all the relevant channels every day. With price tracking software, you can have a short glimpse on the panel every day. You can choose competitors which you want to compare to and check your shop's ranking (position) in comparison to them:
Other relevant information displayed is about opportunities for profit increase or important changes in the market. In order to always be up to date, you can receive such insights in e-mail alerts as well.
The second functionality which is often used is dynamic pricing (repricing). It gives you a possibility to change the price in the online shop according to the current market position. How does it work? You set customized rules according to which the prices in your shop should be changed. It can include such rules as "being the cheapest on Google Shopping", "being cheaper than the average on the market" provided specific conditions (e.g. minimum profit margin). Thanks to that, you can automate your pricing without additional manual work and time needed. If you have seen competitors being always 5 cents below your price – it is very probable that they use such rules for their pricing.
3. Which functionalities and reports provided in the price tracking tool are crucial?
What is relevant when looking for a price monitoring & repricing software?
- Clear market overview – price monitoring tool should enable you not only to check your position on the market but also to identify the most relevant competitors. In the Dealavo tool, you can see your position on the market in regard to every single product and see how many other online shops offer it. You can also easily see which products you have in common with each of the competitors.
- All data integrated in one place – thanks to having the data from all the platforms in one panel, you can understand the situation with one glimpse only.
- Data displayed in charts – there is no easier way to see a trend than looking at a chart. That's why at Dealavo we try to visualize the data in very intuitive way – with charts including information about different competitors' prices in a specified time range
- Dynamic Pricing – to react quickly, it is recommended to implement dynamic pricing based on customizable conditions. Some shops use different rules depending on the channel or country – with Dealavo software it is not a problem.
- E-mail alerts – to be always up to date with relevant changes in the market, you should make sure you can receive e-mail notifications every time there is an important price increase / decrease in the market, or when there is an opportunity to increase your price etc. With Dealavo, you can choose when exactly you want to receive such an e-mail (e.g. when the prices decrease more than 15%).
- API integration – to implement data from the tool to your system, API integration is crucial – especially if you monitor hundreds or thousands of products. With Dealavo, you always get an API.
- Data available in csv – for data analysis, it can be important to have data in csv format as well. Dealavo offers it for all of the clients.
- Availability information – it happens that your competitors offer products at very low prices, but then it turns out that they are not available. It can even happen that even though there are several listed offers, you are the only shop which actually has the product. It is crucial to have availability information in the tool.
- Frequency of the updates – to react fast, you need frequent updates. At Dealavo, we can offer you to refresh informationi even every 15 minutes.
4. How to start monitoring prices systematically?
Once you decide price monitoring and repricing are crucial, here are the next steps you should follow:
- Fill the contact form to have a call during which we could understand your needs and discuss how we can help.
- See the demo of Dealavo price monitoring tool
- Choose the products you would like to monitor
- Choose the websites you would like to track prices on – these can be marketplaces, price comparison websites or online shops

Tree Protection & Management Plans (TPMP)
A Tree Protection & Management Plan (TPMP) is a document that is produced if required as a condition of the planning permit. It provides detail on the step-by-step tree protective measures from pre-demolition until the competition of landscape stage. It is fundamentally based on the recommendations in the arboricultural impact assessment however it contains more detail and a chronological timeline for every component of the development.
Root investigation reports
A root investigation report identifies the location of roots within a Tree Protection Zone (TPZ). AS 4970-2009 states that some encroachments into the TPZ of trees being retained are allowable if the project arborist has investigated sufficiently and can prove that despite the encroachment, tree retention is viable. By utilising non-invasive excavation methods that wont damage the root system, the exact location of roots can be determined which often will allow for a significant encroachment into the TPZ.
Depending on the site specifics and the volume or size of vegetation being retained, this exercise could mean the difference between getting 3 dwellings rather than 2 on your development site.

The growth and collapse history of two pingos located approximately 18 m a.s.l, and 35 m a.s.l. in Kuganguag, Disko lsland, west-central Greenland were examined. The pingos of this area were formed on Tertiary basalt rocks. One of the pingos is located in the middle of an alluvial fan, the other is on a river bed. Both have already collapsed. The pingo on the river bed had already collapsed at least 3545±60 year BP (14C dating from base of the pond sediments in the pingo crater). Both pingos formed after the sea's retreat as permafrost developed in the newly exposed delta bottom.

The power deposition profile by modulated fundamental electron cyclotron heating is deduced with the confidence interval derived from the statistical treatment of experimental data. The second harmonic electron cyclotron emission is used for the measurement of electron temperature that is necessary in this analysis. It is shown that the resultant deposition profile is consistent with the prediction resulting from the ray tracing calculation, including the multireflection effect at the vessel wall. The local adiabatic time scale for the thermal diffusion is derived and the propriety of the time scale in the power balance analysis is confirmed. The statistical confidence interval implies a broad profile of the power absorption. The obtained results show the necessity of using the statistical approach for analysis of the experimental data.

SVN: Partial Checkouts
It is often useful to be able to partially checkout a project or a subset of related projects from a repository. Having such a partial working copy may be helpful to allow the joint commit of related changes to more than one project. Thus helps to "tie" the changes in the projects' histories.
Here are a couple of scripts to assist that process: one Bash shell script, and the equivalent DOS Batch file.
The bash:
#!/bin/bash
### location (path) for the WORKING COPY
### [Cygwin (on Windows) / Linux path]
LOCAL="c:/path/to/dir/"
### location (URL) of the REPOSITORY
REPOS="http://server/svn_repos/"
### which BRANCH NAME within the repository to use
#BRANCH="trunk/"
BRANCH="branches/branch_name/"
### ===========================================================================
function main
{
 if [ ! -e "${LOCAL}" ]
 then
 ### checkout into existing working copy would perform a delete
 echo svn checkout --depth=empty "${REPOS}" "${LOCAL}"
 svn checkout --depth=empty "${REPOS}" "${LOCAL}" \
 || { echo "svn co fail" ; exit 1 ; }
 fi
 ### use these for very sparse checkouts, e.g.
 #svn_up_component project1/ doc/
 #svn_up_component project1/ src/
 #svn_up_component project2/ src/
 ### etc.
 ### use these for 'normal' partial checkouts
 svn_up_component project1/
 svn_up_component project2/
}
### ===========================================================================
function svn_up_component
{
 ### $1 = project (the bit before the branch name)
 ### $2 = sub-component (optional; the bit after the branch name)
 svn_up_rec_empty "${LOCAL}" "${1}${BRANCH}${2}"
 echo svn update --set-depth=infinity "${LOCAL}${1}${BRANCH}${2}"
 svn update --set-depth=infinity "${LOCAL}${1}${BRANCH}${2}" \
 || { echo "svn up infinity [${1}] [${2}] fail" ; exit 1 ; }
}
### ===========================================================================
function svn_up_rec_empty
{
 ### $1 = existing part of path
 ### $2 = path fragment to create
 _whole=$2
 _left=${2/\/*\//\/}
 _right=${2#*/}
 if [ ! -e "${1}" ]
 then
 echo svn update --set-depth=empty "${1}"
 svn update --set-depth=empty "${1}" \

Cheque Bounce in UAE and Settlement Procedure
Cheque bounce in UAE is a criminal offense and cheque writer can face a court trial and jail term
Cheque Bounce in UAE and Settlement Procedure
Articles (Gulf Inside) Cheque bounce in UAE is a criminal offense and cheque writer can face a court trial and jail term also can face a travel ban with a bench warrant, drawer of bounced check unable to leave UAE, and cannot enter if already left until settlements.
To know more about the settlement of the bounced Cheque case and how to the removal of the travel ban, you need to follow the below guide.
New Law Cheque Bounce:
According to the UAE Federal Law No-3 of 1987 promulgating the legal code, both criminal, also as civil proceedings, are often initiated against the perpetrator of bounced cheque writer.
What is Cheque Bounce?
A cheque bounce or bounced check may be a cheque presented by the payee and rejected by the drawer bank under below circumstances:
 1. Insufficient funds in the drawer account.
 2. Changed signature on a cheque or refusing it from being paid.
 3. The drawer's checking account was closed before the cheque is presented for payment.
1: The Police Complaint:
To file a complaint about a bounced cheque, the bearer of the cheque should formally open a case with the police station of the respective emirate against the drawer. For registering complaints on the bounced cheque in Dubai, you'll use the Dubai Police app.
After receiving the complaint, the police will contact the issuer of the cheque to notify him/her of the same and request his urgent presence. At the police headquarters, the drawer is allowed to settle the difficulty through paying the complete amount of the bounced cheque. If he/she paid, no further legal proceedings are going to be taken.
If the issuer of the bad cheque doesn't have money to pay, he/she has the proper to request a while to settle the difficulty. Upon such a request, the issuer could also be granted an inexpensive period secured by the deposit of his passport at the police headquarters. However, it highly depends on the cheque amount as in many cases such a guarantee of depositing the passport is rejected by cops if the quantity drawn on the cheque is more than 1 million dirhams or higher.
Point to be noted that cheque bounced may be a criminal offense within the UAE, upon filing the complaint at the police headquarters, a travel ban and bench warrant on the drawer will be issued automatically. Hence, the issuer of the cheque is going to be banned from leaving the country and arrested if he/she tries to flee, or should be detained on arrival in UAE from outside.
Such a travel ban in UAE is often removed only upon settlement of the cheque bounce case, or after serving a sentence.
2: The Public Prosecution:
In case the opponents failed to resolve the cheque bounce case at the police station, the police then transfer the complaint to the public prosecutor in the court.
Based on the evidence presented within the court, the choice might be a bail either by paying the worth of the bounced cheque or by depositing the passport of the defaulter or another guarantor. In case bail was denied, the public prosecutor may order the detention of the drawer until the court hears and decides on the case.
3: The Criminal Court:
The role of the court in UAE is to dive deeper into that bounce check case, opponents' arguments, and available evidence. The court then proceeds to look at whether the crime elements are satisfied or not. The crime elements are the fabric element and therefore the mental element.
Once both of the crime elements are satisfied, and by the authority vested in it within Article 401 of the UAE legal code, the court may decide the sanction of the perpetrator.
This can be confined to a fine assessed solely by the court, supported the conclusion reached and therefore the amount claimed and typically ranging between AED 1,000 and AED 30,000+. The court can also decide the sanction of the perpetrator to be serving a jail term of between 1 year and three years.
4: Civil Court Proceedings:
The criminal court and the civil court function separately but may solve both civil cases and criminal cases. Hence, the sentence issued by the court comes only as a sanction for the act of issuing a bounced cheques with insufficient funds in account or withdrawal all or part of the funds after giving the cheque.
The claimant may present his case to the civil court also to say his right to the disputed amount.
After reaching a conclusion supported the evidence and facts presented by the opponents, the civil court can then demand the issuer of the bounced cheque to pay a sum equal either to the worth of the cheque or its outstanding balance. In case the perpetrator fails again to pay the said amount, his assets could also be attached, and he could also be subjected to a different jail term for failing to comply with the civil court orders.

If there are not any pending cases against the bounced cheque writer, once the jail term is completed, he's allowed to gather his impounded passport and may also leave the country.
Writing a Cheque:
If the issuer of a cheque realized that he did a mistake by writing a cheque and there have been sufficient funds, it is often remedied at any stage of the legal proceedings by providing account statements of cheque submission date.
How to Remove Travel Ban:
Travel ban against Bounce cheque can only be removed through settlement or completing the jail term, the important point for the drawer is that he/she shall confirm to retrieve the bad cheque and obtain a clearance paper from his debtor or court upon payment of the disputed amount or completing the jail term.
Henceforth, no further legal proceedings will be initiated, and the UAE travel ban and an arrest warrant will be removed automatically.
Recent Developments in cheque bounce case:
To mitigate the non-payment of bounced cheques, the UAE government has recently introduced new regulations to punish such crimes with fines rather than jail terms. This initiative allows the issuer of the bounced cheque to urge employment opportunities or other such alternatives to be ready to repay his debt rather than getting to jail, subject to the orders of the public prosecutor.
Cheque Bounce Penalty:
As per the order, cases of cheque bounce the amount not exceeding AED 200,000 shall be punished with the following fines:
If the quantity is a smaller amount than AED 50,000 the cheque bounce penalty is going to be AED 2,000.
If the quantity is between AED 50,000 to 100,000 the fine is going to be AED 5,000.
If the amount written in the bounced cheque is from AED 100,000 to 200,000+, the cheque bounce penalty will be AED 10,000+.
Conclusion and extra care:
Cheque bounce in UAE can be associated with numerous reasons including illegal termination by the company, bankruptcy, absconding of the cheque writer, etc. In practice, when the bearer of the bounced cheque filed a complaint with the police, the most viable way to resolve the issue for both parties is to settle it at the police station amicably.
It is advisable that don't allow anyone to use your checkbook, as holders of checkbooks can get in trouble for a cheque bounce in UAE even without signing it. The practical experience shows that there are cases where an individual is often subject to legal liability towards a cheque bounce or bounced check case even it's not signed by him.

There is no shortage of the news on stablecoin censorship, in particular blacklisting of Ethereum addresses:
Tether has been blacklisting Ethereum addresses that hold USDT for a couple of years now—this year alone, Tether has blacklisted 24 addresses that hold a total of $5.51 million USDT in summation. [...] Tether has blacklisted a total of 39 out of the 1.47 million Tether addresses that exist, which represents a total of 0.00002% of all tether addresses. When a tether address is blacklisted, it can't send, receive, or redeem USDT.
Assuming that the said stablecoin issuers are not miners/validators, how are they able to do censor sending and receiving? Does such censorship involve also NFTs, Eth, and other erc-20 tokens? Could similar censorship be done by MakerDao?
They own the contracts.
For example, one of the Tether contracts is named BlackList. This contains a mapping:
mapping (address => bool) public isBlackListed;
...which can be updated by the owners using addBlackList().
When an address is added to the blacklist, that address can no longer use its Tether balance.
 - Does MakerDao own like contacts and could they practice similar censorship with respect to DAI? – Jerzy Brzóska Feb 11 at 10:20

If you have emails that were either created outside Workbooks (in Outlook or Google Mail for example) or you've received email in your Inbox that you want to store against the relevant record(s) in Workbooks, you can use the Dropbox functionality.
Put simply, the Dropbox is a special email address (different for each Workbooks user). When emails (up to 16MB each) are received by that address, Workbooks searches the database to find the right record(s) to store the email against. You can store the same email against many different records within Workbooks (up to a maximum of 500 per email). For example, you might want to store one email against not only a Person, but also against a Case that the Person has raised. This can be achieved easily by including Object References in the emails you forward to your Dropbox.

70% Smaller PNG Files
CodeKit can reduce PNG file sizes by about 70% with virtually no change in image quality—it's straight-up witchcraft.
To do this, CodeKit uses a tool called PNGQuant, which is written by Kornel Lesiński. Kornel also develops the industry-standard Mac App, ImageOptim. He was kind enough to license PNGQuant to me so that you get the same state-of-the-art optimizer in CodeKit.
The Image Inspector
Select one or more PNG images in CodeKit and you'll see the Image Inspector:
If you don't see this section of the Image Inspector, make sure you've selected only PNG images.
The primary option is which optimizer to run. CodeKit contains two:
- PNGQuant (default)
Which Optimizer Should I Use?
PNGQuant is the right choice 98% of the time. However, it may produce "banding" in images with subtle gradients like fog or clouds. For these images, consider OptiPNG.
OptiPNG is 100% lossless and works by deleting extra metadata and then recompressing your image file. However, since modern image-editing apps already write really efficient PNGs, you'll typically see only about 5% reductions with OptiPNG.
Below 85%, you may start to see "noise" in the optimized image. However, for images containing mostly solid blocks of colors (such as UI elements, screenshots, etc.) setting a lower value can reduce file sizes by 90% or more without any loss in visual quality. (Note: this value does not apply to OptiPNG, which is always 100% lossless.)
A Note About "Initial Size"
This is how large an image was the first time CodeKit ever saw it. The value never changes. So, if you start with a small image (say, 50x50 px) and then replace it with a bigger one (say, 5000x5000 px), it's possible that the current size may be larger than the initial size, even after optimization. In this case, the initial size isn't really accurate because it was set when a smaller file occupied the path.
Output Path & Action
These options apply to files of all types. They are explained in Setting Output Paths & Actions.
Normally, CodeKit will not copy or process a file if its output path is the same as its input path. The exception to this is images.


Grammar Lesson of the Day: because
Grammar Lesson of the Day: because.
Some years ago I began to notice that my college freshmen had all gotten a very strange idea. They had been taught that one must never begin a sentence with the word because. I have no idea where high school teachers came up with this one. It is like alligators in the Manhattan sewers, or aliens landing in Roswell. Some kook huddled in a condemned building says it, and all at once everybody "knows" it, though it is not in the slightest bit true.
There's nothing special about the word because. It's a subordinating conjunction, like a hundred others. Any of them may begin a sentence – so long as it's a sentence they are beginning. A sentence, whether it begins with because or if or since or although or whenever or while or whatever or whatever, requires a main clause. This is not a sentence:
Because I could not stop for death.
But it's because it lacks a main clause. Let Emily Dickinson supply one:
The "rule" that the teachers have promulgated, besides being in itself utterly absurd, reveals something about all the other grammatical rules and "rules" that our students learn (or "learn"). That is, since grammar is no longer taught systematically, as a coherent discipline that makes sense of how we make sense, it disintegrates into a set of arbitrary directives, some of them incorrect at that, each separate from the other, without rhyme or reason. It is why I say that, unless they've studied Latin or German, none of my college freshmen has been taught grammar.
In any case, why would you want to begin with because? Well, you might want to emphasize the main clause, leaving it to the end, if that contains the idea you are going to develop. That's what Emily Dickinson wanted to do; she wanted to focus on Death's stopping by to give her a ride. But maybe you want to emphasize the material in the subordinate clause. Then you will probably place it after the main clause:
We're off to see the Wizard,
The wonderful Wizard of Oz!
We hear he is a whiz of a wiz
If ever a wiz there was!
If ever if ever a wiz there was
The Wizard of Oz is one because
Because because because because because –
Because of the wonderful things he does!
We're off to see the Wizard,
The wonderful Wizard of Oz!

 Could this be a lack of trust on the part of the professors? I was once told by a pediatrician (no longer our pediatrician) not to kiss my baby's face. As if I could stop. I'm sure she meant "please don't kiss your baby's face if you have pneumonia, or if you have crumbs in your mustache, or if you have just inhaled cigarette smoke." But she can't trust a non-professional bumbling mother or father to understand all the exceptions, so to be safe, she just laid down the law for all time. I imagine that professors find it easier to say "don't start a sentence with because, alright?" than to explain what a sentence fragment is.
 - Tony
 I don't think so, Jamie. It isn't professors who gave out that advice, but schoolteachers. I think they do not know what they are talking about. It's just flat ignorance.
 - Nancy de Flon
 Tony, part of the problem is that not only has none of your freshmen been taught grammar, but also, if you consider the age of many high school and elementary school teachers, they have probably not taught grammar either. We have a situation parallel to that in the Church in which religious ed is being taught to kids by uncatechized catechists. We are hurtling toward a cultural Dark Age.
 - Victor Gallerano
 It seems to me that there is less here than meets the eye: Our fourth graders are taught that they should not begin a sentence with because because they are just coming to terms with simple sentences. Subordination of clauses is too abstract to make sense at that level. In 6th and 7th grade, we correct that notion. "We are moving on, class, now you are able to understand why and how to use a subordinate clause (whether begun by because or some other subordinate conjunction). In the late 7th and 8th grades we teach the various rhetorical values of the syntactical choices one makes in writing.
 I can't speak for "all" your freshmen (really???) but, perhaps some of them weren't listening in the 6th grade when we corrected the because rule. (Has their listening gotten any better, by the way?)
 At any rate, this level of grammar is appropriate to grammar, not high school. The only time grammar is taught "systematically" in high school is during 9th grade when they are trying to re-mediate any gaps or weaknesses in the new freshmen. Needless to say, 9th grade goes to the low-man on the teaching totem pole…and usually the one with gaps and weaknesses of his or her own.
 - _URL_ Manny
 "why would you want to begin with because? Well, you might want to emphasize the main clause"
 Actually it emphasizes both clauses becuase it inverts the normal sequence. It gives the entire sentence a charge. If anything the first half of the Dickenson line is what's memorable to me, "Because i could not stop for death…" If she had gone with the normal sequence niether halves would be memorable.
 - _URL_ F.R. Duplantier
 Why am I responding to this article? Because I want to. And that's a perfectly grammatical, if elliptical sentence. The rules of grammar are intended for people who have no idea what they're doing, to help them make a better impression and avoid embarrassing themselves too much. They're like paint-by-number canvases or Arthur Murray dance lessons. No one who's any good at anything pores over rule books.

How long does it take to install a wind turbine?
Installing wind turbines is a long process, from choosing the right site to commissioning. The installation time depends on a number of factors, such as the number of wind turbines to be installed, the site conditions, the permitting process and weather conditions.
The first step is to select a suitable site with suitable wind conditions. Then the site needs to be prepared for installation, which may include soil preparation, foundation construction and possible transport-and-infrastructure/">infrastructure works.
The next step is the transport and assembly of the wind turbines. Wind turbines are usually modular, so they can be easily transported and assembled at the installation site. During assembly, the tower, the rotor blades and the generator are connected.
The installation process may also require connection to the electrical grid, which includes the installation of wiring and the power transmission system. The wind turbines are then commissioned and operational tests are carried out.
The length of the whole installation process depends largely on the size of the project. For small projects, installation can take up to a few months, while for larger projects it can take up to one or two years. Permitting processes and weather conditions can also affect the installation time.
Overall, wind turbine installation is a long process that depends on a number of factors. However, with the right planning and preparation, and with the help of a team of experts, the installation process can be carried out smoothly and efficiently.∑: installation, process, turbines, conditions, depends, number, turbine, factors, permitting

The fruit looks somewhat like a small grapefruit with an uneven skin, and can be either yellow or green depending on the degree of ripeness. Yuzu fruits, which are very aromatic, typically range between 5.5 cm (2.16 in) and 7.5 cm (2.95 in) in diameter, but can be as large as a regular grapefruit (up to 10 cm (3.93 in) or larger).
Yuzu forms an upright shrub or small tree, which commonly has many large thorns. Leaves are notable for a large, leaf-like petiole, resembling those of the related kaffir lime and Ichang papeda, and are heavily scented.
Yuzu closely resembles sudachi (a Japanese citrus from Tokushima Prefecture, a yuzu–mandarin orange cross) in many regards, though unlike the sudachi, yuzu eventually ripen to an orange colour and there are subtle differences between the flavours of the fruit. The yuzu originated and grows wild in central China and Tibet. It was introduced to Japan and Korea during the Tang dynasty, and is still cultivated there. It grows slowly, generally requiring 10 years to fruit. It is unusual among citrus plants in being relatively frost-hardy, due to its cold-hardy C. ichangensis ancestry, and can be grown in regions with winters as low as −9 °C (15 °F) where more sensitive citrus would not thrive.

bitwise
Contributor(s): Matthew Haughn
Bitwise is a level of operations that involves working with individual bits, which are the smallest units of data in a computer. Each bit has a single binary value: 0 or 1. Although computers are capable of manipulating bits, they usually store data and execute instructions in bit multiples called bytes. Most programming languages manipulate groups of 8, 16 or 32 bits.
Bitwise operators are characters that represent actions to be performed on single bits. A bitwise operation operates on two-bit patterns of equal lengths by positionally matching their individual bits:
A logical AND (&) of each bit pair results in a 1 if the first bit is 1 AND the second bit is 1. Otherwise the result is zero. Among other uses, AND (represented as &) can be used to test individual bits in a bit string to see if they are 0 or 1.
Here's an example in C/C++:
IsOdd = (ValueToTest & 1) != 0;
A logical OR (|) of each bit pair results in a 1 if the first bit is 1 OR the second bit is 1. Otherwise, the result is zero. A logical XOR (~) of each bit pair results in a 1 if the two bits are different, and 0 if they are the same.
Logical NOT is represented as ^. Left shift (<<), right shift (>>) and zero fill right shift (>>>>) are sometimes referred to as bitwise operators and sometimes called bit shift operators.

How to Calculate Coefficient of Performance
If you've ever wondered what it means to say one electrical appliance works better than another one does, there is actually a way that these devices are measured for their efficiency and effectiveness. The coefficient of performance formula explains the usage of the word "better" when talking about how appliances and other devices perform.
Coefficient of Performance Formula
You can calculate the coefficient of performance by dividing how much energy a system produces by the amount of energy you input into the system. This coefficient of performance formula applies across fields. This formula is very similar to the formula of efficiency, which is work a system outputs divided by the work put into the system, letting you easily compare coefficient of performance vs. efficiency.
Because work is the transfer of energy from one place and form to another, if you can represent the change in energy of a system using work, the two formula are equivalent.
Coefficient of performance example problems demonstrate how useful it can be. If you were using four tons of water to heat a closed ground loop of a geothermal heat pump that produces 35,600 Btu/hr (British thermal units per hour) while consuming 2,700 watts of power, you can calculate the coefficient of performance.
Converting the Btu/hr units to watts, a measure of power, you can follow the manual for a geothermal heat pump or find the conversion online. One Btu/hr is equivalent to 0.293 watts.
This means that 35,900 Btu/hr is roughly 10,518 watts. Though power represents energy divided by time, you can assume the time to input the energy and output it are the same for this problem. Dividing 10,518 by 2,700 as shown by the coefficient of performance formula, you get 3.89. For each watt of power or joule of energy input into the system, the pump produces 3.89 watts of power or joules of energy.
Through examples such as this one, you can compare the coefficient of performance across systems and even across fields. This lets engineers compare the efficiency of different systems such as the comparisons between hybrid cars and regular or electric cars.
Coefficient of Performance Refrigeration Example
The coefficient of performance can take many forms that are unique to or inherently based on the principles of specific disciplines. The effectiveness of refrigerators or air conditioners represents one way of comparing coefficient of performance as QC/Win for QC the heat the refrigerator gives off QC and the work input to the system Win. This gives you a method of comparing refrigerators when you want to save money or energy for specific purposes.
Scientists and engineers study the chemical substances used in refrigerators for cooling, known as refrigerants, to figure out how to make the most energy-efficient appliances they can. Using a refrigerator and heat pump, you can figure out as a refrigerant's coefficient of performance.
You can use calculations that measure the heat given off by the parts of a refrigerator like the evaporator (which serves as a cold reservoir of water) and the condenser (a hot reservoir). It also involves the pressure given off by the heat exchange in which ammonia is compressed as it changes from gas to liquid.
Dividing heat extracted from the evaporator by the work done by the compressor gives you the coefficient of performance for the refrigerator. You can also divide the heat transferred from the condenser by the work done by the compressor to get the heat pump's coefficient of performance.
The specific formula for refrigerators also relates to the Carnot coefficient of performance, which should equal the maximum coefficient of performance for a refrigerator. It's given by TC/(TH-TC) for the TC temperature of the cold reservoir, the evaporator, and TH as the measure of the hot one, the condenser.

on( 'tellEveryone', function( msg ){
 sio.emit( 'heyEveryone', msg, socket.id ); // pass the socket.id so other client know who it's from
});
The sio.emit() method here is actually a helper function that gets the default namespace (/) and calls emit() on that. The following 3 calls all do the same thing:
sio.emit( 'heyEveryone', msg, socket.id );
sio.sockets.emit( 'heyEveryone', msg, socket.id ); // sio.sockets is a reference to the main "/" namespace
sio.of( '/' ).emit( 'heyEveryone', msg, socket.id ); // of( '/' ) is how we reference a namespace, in this case the main "/" one
Notice that last of( '/' ) call? That's how we reference other namespaces. Remember how I said sockets in one namespace couldn't send messages to sockets in other namespaces? This is how you get around that:
socket.on( 'tellNamespace', function( msg, namespaceName ){
 sio.of( namespaceName ).emit( 'heyEveryone', msg, socket.id ); // NOTE: namespace will be created if it doesn't exist
});

 socket.to( roomName ).emit( 'heyThere', msg, socket.id ); // NOTE: room will be created if it doesn't exist
});
You can also use in( roomName ) instead of to() if you wish.
You can also send to multiple rooms by chaining the to() calls:
socket.on( 'tellRooms', function( msg, room1Name, room2Name ){

 socket.to( room1Name ).to( room2Name ).emit( 'heyThere', msg, socket.id );
});
Note that on the client, if they've joined multiple rooms, when they get a message, they won't actually know which room (if any) sent it, so it's generally a good idea to pass the room name as one of the parameters.
Sending a message to everyone except you
The socket has a broadcast flag, that when used will send the event to everyone in the namespace/room except for yourself. For a namespace:
socket.on( 'broadcastMsg', function( msg ) {
 socket.broadcast.emit( 'broadcastFrom', msg, socket.id );
});
or for a room:
socket.on( 'broadcastMsg', function( msg, roomName ) {
 socket.to( roomName ).broadcast.emit( 'broadcastFrom', msg, socket.id );
});
Sending a message to another user
To send a message to another user, we can go about it two ways: we can get the socket of the other user from the connected dictionary on our namespace and call emit() on it:
socket.on( 'sendToUser', function( msg, userID ){

 // try and get the socket from our connected list
 var otherSocket = sio.sockets.connected[userID]; // NOTE: sockets is the default "/" namespace
 if( otherSocket )
 otherSocket.emit( 'messageFromUser', msg, socket.id );
});
But remember when I said it's a good idea for the client to know the IDs of other clients? This is because when a socket connects, one of the things that it does it join a room with the same name as its ID. So to send a message to a client, we can use the same logic as sending a message to a room:
socket.on( 'sendToUser', function( msg, userID ){
 socket.to( userID ).emit( 'messageFromUser', msg, socket.id );
});
Technically this means that if we join() this room, we'd be privy to all the private messages sent to this user, which opens up all sorts of interesting possibilities.
Getting the IDs of connected users
If you want to send a list of all the socket IDs in a particular namespace, you can go through the connected dictionary on the namespace:
var sids = keys( sio.sockets.connected ); // sockets = default "/" namespace
To send all the IDs for a particular room, you need to go through the adapter property on the namespace:
var socketsInRoom = sio.sockets.adapter.rooms[roomName]; // sockets = default "/" namespace
var sids = ( socketsInRoom ) ? keys( socketsInRoom ) : []
Nicknames
To enable nicknames, you simply need to keep a dictionary of socket ids => nicknames on the server. Then you can either do two things:
Fin
So there you have it! You should be set up for firing messages left and right. If there's another scenario you want covered, leave a comment, and I'll add it in.

Michael
The best introduction to socket.io that i've ever seen.
Adrien
I agree with Michael, this "introduction" is a nice summary of Socket.io, very helpful thanks
Kev
That's what I was looking for !! Great job !
Sir
Excellent, very clear and helpful.
Varoon
Nicely explained in a very simple form. I am looking for a tutorial that maps the theory of websockets and TCP to the socket.io API. You are probably the best guy to do it. That with this tutorial would be all that one would need to be a good socket.io coder!
Damian Connolly
Hi Varoon, do you mind being more precise as to what you're looking for? The whole point of Socket.io is to handle TCP so you don't have to. Aside from the parameters that are passed to the underlying Engine.io instance, you generally don't need to do any heavy lifting.
Marco
Great job, clear and useful.

Nice Tutorial for new User..
Em
This is the most beginner-friendly socket.io tutorial i have seen.
Gayathri G
It really helps me.Thanks dude
ZAIN
In the examples you passed client id to send message to specific user but how are you storing the ids on client side
Damian Connolly
Hi Zain,
A simple Object on the client is enough to store your ID/nickname. Something like:
var nicknames = {};
// when you get a nickname/id:
nicknames[socket.id] = nickname
As the socket.id changes every time, you don't need to stock it, so you can just recover them all when you connect.
Manoj
I'm new to socket.io. I'm struggling to implement multiple chat. so I want implemented code. Please send code
Damian Connolly
Hi Manoj,
In the Getting Started section of Socket.io, you can find a step-by-step guide on creating a chat application. What have you tried?
Fabien
Merci pour ce tuto ! Simple et complet
hamidkardorost
great tutorial . thank you
one thing that's not covered well in web is "Authentication Socket"
it would be nice if you could add some tuts about auth as well
Damian Connolly
Hi Hamidkardorost,
What do you mean by "authentication"? Personally, I simply have an event like any other where the user sends their ID/Token. Prior to that they can be marked as a guest.
There are other approaches as well, such as _URL_ for example, which uses JSON Web Tokens
R Martin
Socket.io should use this as its documentation
hi,my name is Hardik
can you please give a more description in Nicknames part with some sample code example ?
Damian Connolly
Hi Hardik,
There's really no special logic to take into account - as in there's no "nickname" event built-in to Socket.io, so how you want to handle it is up to you. Assuming a simple drop-in/drop-out setup where there's no login or anything, one way would be:
 - On the server hold an object where the key is the socket ID, and the value is the nickname for the socket. As the socket ID changes every time you reconnect, there's no need to persist this in a DB or anything
 - When a user connects, they send an

Evoked Potentials (EPs) are time varying signals buried in large background noise. In order to detect and extract Visual Evoked Potentials (VEP) in real time, we use the fourth order cumulant of the observed noisy signal in an adaptive filter. The noisy signal is passed through a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter whose impulse response is matched with the shape of the noise-free signal. The impulse response of the said filter is estimated using the fourth order cumulant of the input signal. We also use a method to recursively utilize fourth order cumulants of the input signal for updating the coefficients of the adaptive FIR filter. This enables us to extract the VEP signal in real time. We show that the fourth order cumulant based method provides better results in comparison to the conventional third order cumulant based method and both yield better results as compared to the widely used autocorrelation function.

What are the Akashic Records? Your Energetic Signature | Intuitive Journal
What are the Akashic Records?
Akasha is a sanskrit word that means "sky", "space" or "aether". Imagine a library spanning as far as the eye can see in all directions. It continues expanding and building as your gaze spans across the room and multiplies exponentially from floor to ceiling.
Envision stacks of books and records lined up row after row containing the knowledge of the universe. They are a record of each person's journey of the soul through time and space. They are available to all and have no religious affiliations.
Access to each of life's journeys is housed in the Akashic Records. All manners of a persons thoughts, spoken words, and actions taken and what was learned from each incarnation can also be found here.
What are the Akashic Records?
The Akashic records are an energetic book, or database if you will, of all of the thoughts, feelings, actions, and deeds for a particular soul for this and all other past and future lifetimes. Each person on this earth has a specific energetic signature and because of this no two Akashic records are the same.
These records reside between the 4th and 5th energetic dimensions. They are typically accessed by someone who has had an attunement to be able to receive the information from the records. Those with false motivations are not granted access to the records. It is a privilege to access the records on behalf of others and is done with the utmost discernment.
Can someone have access to their entire Akashic record? That would be unlikely. In a reading, such as those I perform, access is given only to the level of uncovering any energetic misalignments currently affecting you and manifesting your current intentions. So, no one has complete access to everything recorded. The point of access I use is to help you understand your soul's history and what is holding you back and keeping you stuck in present life.
Those parts that are relevant to you right now are what will show up. They could be from past lives or have happened in your current lifetime. There is no need to go scavenging back into your record for information that may not have any bearing on what issues you are struggling with today.
Do you have recurring dreams that have been the same for years? Do they take place in a distant land or a different era? You may have been seeing a past life through part of what has been recorded in the Akashic records. By uncovering portions of past lives you can understand the choices you made and the situation surrounding the choice. By knowing and clearing energies no longer useful, you can make new choices aligned with who you are at soul level. This allows you to step further into your purposeful work.
Are you consistently creating the reality you want for yourself?

Despite increasing average real family incomes in Costa Rica in the late 1990s and early 2000s, poverty rates did not fall. In this paper, we argue that during this period economic growth in Costa Rica did not translate into reduced poverty because of changes in family structure and in the labor market, and that these changes had an important gender dimension. Specifically, an increase in the proportion of Costa Rican households headed by single mothers led to an increase in the number of women with children entering the labor force. Many of these mothers, new entrants to the labor force, were unable or unwilling to find full-time work in the high-paying formal sector, and ended up unemployed or working part-time as self-employed workers. These labor market phenomena, in turn, contributed to low incomes for households vulnerable to poverty, especially those households headed by single mothers.

The ERB facility consists of many different test cells. The test cells are categorized into four broad areas: Turbomachinery, Flow Physics, Combustors, and Heat Transfer. The test cells in each look at different aspects of these areas. However, the data acquisition system in each test cell consists of two basic components, which are the same for all test cells – an analog steady state acquisition system and a pressure measurement system. In addition, a portable transient data acquisition system can be provided upon request.
- Analog Steady State Data System – Escort
Escort, the analog steady state data acquisition system, uses a DEC Alpha microprocessor to provide:
- An X window base system
- Real time on-line acquisition of analog signals
- Conversion of raw 10 Hz filtered digitized Neff data to engineering units
- Computed performance calculations, which can be displayed in a variety of tabular and graphical formats
- Limited checking on all selected channels
- 1 second update rate
Escort can stand alone to meet all secure test requirements or it can be connected to a central processing cluster, which facilitates software application development, downloading of software, uploading and storage of facility tables, post processing of data and transmitting of data to a data collector for archival storage. Please see the Test Cell (listed below) you are interested in to find out the unique characteristics of the ESCORT system in that test cell.
- Pressure System
ESP is an off the shelf electronically scanned pressure system. The system consists of numerous 32 port, rack mounted modules from +/-2.5 PSID to +500 PSID, located outside the test chamber. Each module has a check pressure to assure the module is performing correctly and can be calibrated in place using up to 5 highly accurate calibration pressures to maintain the overall system accuracy of +/-0.05% of range. This calibration is performed every 2 hours.Please see the Test Cell (listed below) you are interested in to find out how many channels and what ranges of ESP modules are typically provided for that test cell.

Subsymbol Communication
Passing information between symbols is key to getting the most use out of them.
Symbol communication can be broken down into three main subheadings:
 - Accessing controllers
 - Accessing nodes
 - Accessing exported functions and variables
For the purposes of this article, we will use the example of a parent symbol communicating with a subsymbol, though the same is also true of subsymbol-to-subsymbol communication.
Creating an instance of the subsymbol
Before we can proceed we need a variable storing an instance of the subsymbol we want to access within a script node. We'll use this variable to access the information within the subsymbol.
Dragging a subsymbol from the Symbol Definitions Panel into a script and selecting 'Construct symbol' adds code that constructs a new instance of the symbol and assigns it to a variable.
Alternatively, dragging an instance of a subsymbol from the Hierarchy into a script and selecting 'insert local variable' will create a variable referencing the instance created in the Hierarchy.
// constructing from the Symbol Definitions Panel
var mySubsymbolConstructed = symbol.symbolDefinitions.mySubsymbol();
// instance referenced from the Hierarchy
var mySubsymbolInstance = symbol.nodes.mySubsymbol;
Symbols constructed within a script node will not display automatically. For Blank symbols, we recommend adding them to the Hierarchy at runtime using the Z.Group push function. For Screen symbols we recommend using the symbol's display function, for more information see the Screen Symbol article.
Accessing controllers
Accessing the timelines and states of a subsymbol allows us to control the animations from the parent symbol.
In order to activate a state or play a timeline within a subsymbol from the parent symbol, you need to be able to access the controller for that subsymbol.
To access the list of controllers in a subsymbol you use the following syntax:
Adding a further dot will allow you to specify a controller by name:
To access the states and timelines within that controller, which are of the Z.Element type, you use the elements keyword:
From there the individual states and timelines can be accessed:
You can then use the functions of the given state or timeline:
Accessing nodes
You can access the nodes within a subsymbol's Hierarchy using the nodes keyword:
From there the individual nodes can be accessed by name:
You can then use the functions of the node (in this case the Z.Object color function):
Accessing exported functions and variables
Functions and variables can be declared in one script and retrieved in another using the export keyword. The example below uses two script nodes, script1 and script2, within the same symbol.
// script1
export let myVariable;
// script2
The same functionality can be used to access exported variables and functions within subsymbols.
//'myScript' script node within the subsymbol
export let myVariable;
// script node within the parent symbol
