What to do if there is no history data from the Tapo temperature and humidity sensor
Q&A of functional explanation or specification parameters
Updated 06-29-2024 03:52:22 AM 14898
This Article Applies to:
As an owner of the Tapo temperature and humidity sensor T310 or T315, not only can you observe real-time temperature and humidity within the app, but you can also review the historical data to understand the daily, monthly, and yearly changes.
How to export history data from Tapo temperature & humidity sensor
If you notice there is no history data recorded in the Tapo App, or the data stops uploading, the following tips may help to resolve the concerns.
Note: Tapo hub should remain connected to the internet to upload and store Tapo T310/T315's history data. Data from any power outage period will be lost.
 1. Attempt to manually alter the temperature or humidity in the sensor's surroundings to observe real-time changes in the app. For example, cover the sensor's top vent hole with your hand, or blow air towards the vent.
If no changes occur, there might be a connectivity issue between the sensor and the hub. Refer to the suggestions here to improve sensor's connection: How to improve the connection stability of my Hub and its sub-devices
How to check the signal strength of the sensor?
Go to Device Settings in the Tapo App -> Device Info -> Tap the signal icon to check the Signal Strength value (RSSI rate).
 - Strong: more than -50 dBm
 - Good to Average: among -70 dBm to-50 dBm
 - Poor: less than -70 dBm
Note: the signal is too weak when it is less than -70dBm, and it is likely to cause a disconnection problem.
 1. Restart the router, wait for 30 minutes then check if the data in the Tapo App has resumed normal recording.
 2. Check if the router has any firewall or ad-blocker settings that might block access to TP-Link servers, preventing the hub from uploading data to the cloud. Disable or remove these settings then monitor future data records.
 3. Change router DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.
 4. Restart the Tapo hub.
(Note: unuploaded history data will be deleted after rebooting the tapo hub.)

The Dilemma of Choice
Some people know what they want to study and what they want to become like the back of their hand. They start building their foundations in a way that gets them closer to their goals. While some other people just can't decide what they want to pursue, either because they are good at a lot of things, or because they feel they are good at none. In both cases, they need help and counselling to arrive at a decision to choose their higher studies and future plans.
Questions to ask yourself to know what you want to study
 1. What are you good at?
The very first question you need to answer is what you like to study that you are good at. Not only introspect on this, but also compare your grades in those subjects to assess what you are good at. Make a list of those subjects.
 1. What don't you want to do?
Regardless of your like and dislike, figure out the subject that you don't want to take up as your career. You can do this evaluating the job opportunities that you have in that field of study and the kind of work you'd have to do. Use your imagination and decide whether or not you think you want to take it up as your specialization.
 1. Are you thinking practically?
Yes, thinking practically is a good thing and it doesn't mean you are killing your soul. It means that you are thinking about your future and your potential development in your career.
If you are stuck between choosing one option of two that you like, think about the kind of university that provides sufficient education that can prepare you to earn your living; the availability and affordability of such a university, and the scope for longterm growth. It is also possible to take up one of the choices as a major career path while pursuing a minor in the other one, so that you can study both but also build clear goals without letting your enthusiasm about various things disrupt your ammbitions.

The Sports Program ensures that nonresident professional athletes file California returns and the correct California source income is reported by those who file returns voluntarily.
For questions or comments e-mail : WSCS.GEN
Subject Line: Sports Team
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why does the state need a Sports Program?
- How do team sport nonresident professional athletes determine their California source income?
- What is the "duty day" method?
- What about the various bonuses the athletes get such as performance and signing bonuses?
- What about the taxes I have to pay to other states or countries?
1. Why does the state need a Sports Program?
The Sports Program exists to help nonresident professional athlete taxpayers determine their California source income.
2. How do team sport nonresident professional athletes determine their California source income?
In order to determine the California source income of a nonresident team sport athlete, the "duty day" method should be used.
3. What is the duty day method?
A "duty day" is defined as "any day services are performed under the contract from the beginning of an official preseason activity until the last game played". The "duty days" in California are then divided by the total "duty days" to create a ratio. This ratio is then multiplied by the total compensation. This then is deemed to be the California source income.
4. What about the various bonuses the athletes get such as performance and signing bonuses?
Performance bonuses should be included in the income to be allocated within and without California if any of the conditions to receive the bonus were met or partially met while performing services in California. The signing bonus issue is dealt with on a case by case basis with an examination of the wording of the contract. If services must be performed to receive or keep the signing bonuses and if any of those services are performed or partially performed in California, then the signing bonus should be included in the compensation to be allocated within and without California.
5. What about the taxes I have to pay to other states or countries?
California does have reciprocal agreements with the other states to allow credit against the tax liability. The availability of these credits depends upon your state of residence. You should see your tax professional regarding this issue. California does not allow credit for taxes paid to foreign countries.

only the first and last can be unbounded. The sequence can be empty if the range is empty (e.g. a range expression like 1 && 2).
Other checks are trivial to implement using this view. For example:
 isNoVersion vr | [] <- asVersionIntervals vr = True
 | otherwise = False
 isSpecificVersion vr
 | [(LowerBound v InclusiveBound
 ,UpperBound v' InclusiveBound)] <- asVersionIntervals vr
 , v == v' = Just v
 | otherwise = Nothing

Instances
VersionIntervals abstract type
The VersionIntervals type and the accompanying functions are exposed primarily for completeness and testing purposes. In practice asVersionIntervals is the main function to use to view a VersionRange as a bunch of VersionIntervals.
data VersionIntervals Source
A complementary representation of a VersionRange. Instead of a boolean version predicate it uses an increasing sequence of non-overlapping, non-empty intervals.
The key point is that this representation gives a canonical representation for the semantics of VersionRanges. This makes it easier to check things like whether a version range is empty, covers all versions, or requires a certain minimum or maximum version. It also makes it easy to check equality or containment. It also makes it easier to identify 'simple' version predicates for translation into foreign packaging systems that do not support complex version range expressions.
toVersionIntervals :: VersionRange -> VersionIntervalsSource
Convert a VersionRange to a sequence of version intervals.
fromVersionIntervals :: VersionIntervals -> VersionRangeSource
Convert a VersionIntervals value back into a VersionRange expression representing the version intervals.
withinIntervals :: Version -> VersionIntervals -> BoolSource
Test if a version falls within the version intervals.
It exists mostly for completeness and testing. It satisfies the following properties:
 withinIntervals v (toVersionIntervals vr) = withinRange v vr
 withinIntervals v ivs = withinRange v (fromVersionIntervals ivs)
versionIntervals :: VersionIntervals -> [VersionInterval]Source
Inspect the list of version intervals.
mkVersionIntervals :: [VersionInterval] -> Maybe VersionIntervalsSource
Directly construct a VersionIntervals from a list of intervals.
Each interval must be non-empty. The sequence must be in increasing order and no invervals may overlap or touch. If any of these conditions are not satisfied the function returns Nothing.

Note: Traffic counts cover various street segments and are provided for informational purposes only. All data should be verified with the appropriate Traffic Operations staff at _PHONE_, and/or verified in the field, prior to use. The last comprehensive counts were conducted in 1997. Some street segments are more current as the date indicates. The City of Eureka uses a 1.4% per year growth rate as a rule of thumb.
Current volumes can be adjusted to future volumes with the Growth Factor. To calculate a growth factor based on a growth rate over several years, use the following formula:
GF = (1+r)^Y = Growth Factor
r = Growth Rate
Y = Number of years
For example the growth factor for 1.4% growth over 8 years is:
GF = (1 + 0.014) ^ 8 = 1.118
A street segment showing a traffic count of 1000 in 1997 would be adjusted as follows:
Adjusted volume = 1000 x 1.118 (GF) = 1118

Parenting Coordination is a problem-solving service offered to parents raising children between homes who seek professional assistance in working together to keep their children free from the parents' conflicts. Parenting Coordination is a child-centered dispute resolution service that assists parents in developing and implementing workable parenting plans when they are unable to do so on their own. Our parenting coordination process uses an education based model utilizing one male, Bradley S. Craig, LMSW-IPR, CFLE serving as the parenting facilitator and one female professional serving as the communication coach. The professional team works to educate parents, meet jointly with both parents to develop an ongoing plan, monitor communications through Our Family Wizard, and assign tasks for parents as needed such as homework. Unlike parenting facilitation, parenting coordination is confidential.
In order to begin services with families, the following 8 fully completed intake forms must be on file for each adult along with their retainers:
- a fully completed data form
- a completed service form
- a copy of the court order (click here for a sample)
- a consent form
- a signed copy of the advisement form with initials on each page
- $600.00 retainer from each parent made out to Bradley Craig and mailed to the mailing address. Please include a cover note with the last name of the child(ren), service you are paying for, cause number, and name of the person the check is for if it does not match the name on the check. Post dated checks and credit cards are not accepted for the initial retainer.
Please deliver each form separately via.pdf scan to _EMAIL_ or fax _PHONE_. Once all the forms are fully completed and on file by both parents and the retainers have been paid, an initial appointment letter will be sent to the parents to schedule the initial joint appointment. Because of the nature of high conflict families, it is important for us to maintain a written paper trail so phone calls will not be returned. If you have questions, please send questions in e-mail.
Please do not send paper copies of information as we maintain digital files and your PF will charge for time spent scanning documents. You may fax or scan documents to Mr. Craig.
Do not e-mail or otherwise communicate with Mr. Craig regarding the history of your case, your concerns regarding the other parent, or other relevant information prior to your initial session though you are encouraged to address your concerns on your personal data form.
For some parents, conflict continues to create distress for them and their children beyond the divorce. Problems may arise over issues that are not specifically addressed in their parenting plan. For example, the parenting plan may say that parents decide together on extra-curricular activities for their children but may not indicate how to deal with disagreements about these activities. When a conflict arises, children often feel caught in the middle. This situation may put them at greater risk for emotional and behavioral problems—e.g., poor school performance, anxiety, uncontrollable anger, and depression.
While divorce itself places children at risk for various psychological difficulties, research has shown that the strongest predictor of child maladjustment after divorce is exposure to high levels of inter-parental conflict, particularly when the conflict is hostile, aggressive, poorly resolved, and focused on issues pertaining to the children. In approximately 10% to 15% of families of divorce, such conflict continues at a high level for several years following the formal divorce decree, and it typically causes the children and the parents to suffer significant and prolonged psychological distress.
Intense and prolonged inter-parental conflict can also cause problems for children indirectly. It can impair the ability of each parent to deal effectively with the children. It can draw the children into the conflict and disrupt the children's relationships with one or both parents. In addition, it can lead to a reduction in financial support of the children by one or both parents, due to the financial costs of repeated litigation and one or both parents becoming less willing to contribute financially.
Even parents who have been able to protect their children from divorce-related conflict may encounter problems when new situations arise—e.g., remarriage.
Parenting coordinators help parents by:
- raising parents' skill level in collaborative planning and decision making for their children
- educating parents on co-parenting techniques and issues related to children growing up between two homes.
- identifying sources of conflict between them and consider ways to address them
- facilitating communication between the parents and between parents and others who relate to the children—e.g., grandparents, school personnel, and therapists
- reducing chronic litigation (and preserve family resources)
- using mediation techniques to deal with specific issues
- assisting the parents in compliance with court orders
The parenting coordinator may do this by reviewing written evaluations and reports, and talking with other significant individuals involved with the family (doctors, therapists, school personnel, lawyers, etc.) The parenting coordinator will meet with the parents jointly, and communicate by fax and email. Home visits may be made if requested by the court. A parent coordinator as defined by the law can not testify in court or submit a report into evidence. The only form of communication that is allowed with the court is for a Parent Coordinator to report if the process is succeeding and if it should continue.
Costs and Payment
The rate for Parenting Coordination is $200.00 per hour rounded up to the nearest 15 minute increment. This includes all services of the Parenting Coordinator including reviewing documentation, meetings, correspondences, phone contact, email, court time, legal expenses, and consultation with other family service providers.

Find out the largest torque, C/C++ Programming
Find out the largest torque:
A flat belt is taken in use to transmit torque from pulley A to pulley B as shown in figure given below. The radius of each pulley is 50mm and coefficient of friction is 0.3. Find out the largest torque that can be transmitted if the allowable belt tension is 3KN.
Sol: Radius of each pulley = 50mm, R1 = R2 = 50mm
R1 = Radius of driver = 50mm
R2 = Radius of driven = 50mm
θ = Angle of contact= 1800 = p,
µ = Coefficient of friction = 0.3
568_Find out the largest torque.png
T1 = Allowable tension = 3KN
T1 greater than T2
Using relation T1/T2 = eµθ
By putting all the value,
3/T2 = e(0.3)(p)
On solving T2 = 1.169KN .......ANS
Since Radius of both pulley is same;
So, Torque exerted on both the pulley is same and
= (T1-T2).R1 = (T1-T2).R2
By putting all the value we get,
(3 - 1.169) X 50 = 91.55 KN-mm .......ANS

Using Earth Files
An Earth File is an XML description of a map. Creating an earth file is the easiest way to configure a map and get up and running quickly. In the osgEarth repository you will find dozens of sample earth files in the tests folder, covering various topics and demonstrating various features. We encourage you to explore and try them out!
Contents of an Earth File
osgEarth uses an XML based file format called an Earth File to specify exactly how source data turns into an OSG scene graph. An Earth File has a.earth extension, but it is XML.
Fundamentally the Earth File allows you to specify:
 - The type of map to create (geocentric or projected)
 - The image, elevation, vector and model sources to use
 - Where the data will be cached
A Simple Earth File
Here is a very simple example that reads data from a GeoTIFF file on the local file system and renders it as a geocentric round Earth scene:

This Earth File creates a geocentric Map named MyMap with a single GeoTIFF image source called bluemarble. The driver attribute tells osgEarth which of its plugins to use to use to load the image. (osgEarth uses a plug-in framework to load different types of data from different sources.)
Some of the sub-elements (under image) are particular to the selected driver. To learn more about drivers and how to configure each one, please refer to the Driver Reference Guide.
Note: the ''version'' number is required!
Multiple Image Layers
osgEarth supports maps with multiple image sources. This allows you to create maps such as base layer with a transportation overlay or provide high resolution insets for specific areas that sit atop a lower resolution base map.
To add multiple images to a Earth File, simply add multiple "image" blocks to your Earth File:

The above map provides two images from local data sources using the GDAL driver. Order is important when defining multiple image sources: osgEarth renders them in the order in which they appear in the Earth File.
Tip: relative paths within an Earth File are interpreted as being relative to the Earth File itself.
Adding Elevation Data
Adding elevation data (sometimes called "terrain data") to an Earth File is very similar to adding images. Use an elevation block like so:

This Earth File has a base bluemarble image as well as a elevation grid that is loaded from a local GeoTIFF file. You can add as many elevation layers as you like; osgEarth will combine them into a single mesh.
As with images, order is important - For example, if you have a base elevation data source with low-resolution coverage of the entire world and a high-resolution inset of a city, you need specify the base data FIRST, followed by the high-resolution inset.
Some osgEarth drivers can generate elevation grids as well as imagery.
Note: osgEarth only supports single-channel 16-bit integer or 32-bit floating point data for use in elevation layers.
Since osgEarth renders data on demand, it sometimes needs to do some work in order to prepare a tile for display. The cache exists so that osgEarth can save the results of this work for next time, instead of processing the tile anew each time. This increases performance and avoids multiple downloads of the same data.
Here's an example cache setup:

This Earth File shows the most basic way to specify a cache for osgEarth. This tells osgEarth to enable caching and to cache to the folder c:/osgearth_cache. The cache path can be relative or absolute; relative paths are relative to the Earth File itself.
There are many ways to configure caching; please refer to the section on Caching for more details.


The fiscal consequences of ADHD in Germany: a quantitative analysis based on differences in educational attainment and lifetime earnings
Nikolaos Kotsopoulos*, Mark P. Connolly, Esther Sobanski, Maarten J. Postma
*Bijbehorende auteur voor dit werk
OnderzoeksoutputAcademicpeer review
11 Citaten (Scopus)
Objective: To estimate the long-term fiscal consequences of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) on the German government and social insurance system based on differences in educational attainment and the resulting differences in lifetime earnings compared with non-ADHD cohorts.
Methods: Differences in educational attainment between ADHD and non-ADHD cohorts were linked to education-specific earnings data. Direct and indirect tax rates and social insurance contributions were linked to differences in lifetime, education-specific earnings to derive lost tax revenue in Germany associated with ADHD. For ADHD and non-ADHD cohorts we derived the age-specific discounted net taxes paid by deducting lifetime transfers from lifetime gross taxes paid.
Results: The lifetime net tax revenue for a non-ADHD individual was approximately 80,000 higher compared to an untreated ADHD individual. The fiscal burden of untreated ADHD, based on a cohort of n=31,844 born in 2010, was estimated at 2.5 billion in net tax revenue losses compared with an equally-sized non-ADHD cohort. ADIAD interventions providing a small improvement in educational attainment resulted in fiscal benefits from increases in lifetime tax gains.
Conclusions: ADHD results in long-term financial loss due to lower education attainment and lifetime reduced earnings and resulting lifetime taxes and social contributions paid. Investments in ADHD interventions allowing more children to achieve their educational potential may offer fiscal benefits generating a positive rate of return.

|Relational Data Mining
Springer, Berlin, 2001
Relational data mining studies methods for knowledge discovery in databases when the database has information about several types of objects. This, of course, is usually the case when the database has more than one table. Hence there is little doubt as to the relevance of the area; indeed, one can wonder why most of data mining research has concentrated on the single table case.
Relational data mining has its roots in inductive logic programming, an area in the intersection of machine learning and programming languages.... The present book Relational Data Mining provides a thorough overview of different techniques and strategies used in knowledge discovery from multi-relational data. The chapters describe a broad selection of practical inductive logic programming approaches to relational data mining and give a good overview of several interesting applications.

Augmented Faces
Augmented Faces allows your app to automatically identify different regions of a detected face, and use those regions to overlay assets such as textures and models in a way that properly matches the contours and regions of an individual face.
How does Augmented Faces work?
This example shows an app that overlays facial features of a fox onto a user's face using assets that include 3D models and an overlay texture.
The 3D model consists of two fox ears and a fox nose. Each is a separate bone that can be moved individually to follow the facial region they are attached to:
The texture consists of eye shadow, freckles, and other coloring:
When you run the sample app, it calls APIs to detect a face and overlays both the texture and the models onto the face.
Identifying an augmented face mesh
In order to properly overlay textures and 3D models on a detected face, ARCore provides detected regions and an augmented face mesh. This mesh is a virtual representation of the face, and consists of the vertices, facial regions, and the center of the user's head.
When a user's face is detected by the camera, ARCore performs these steps to generate the augmented face mesh, as well as center and region poses:
 1. It identifies the center pose and a face mesh.
 - The center pose, located behind the nose, is the physical center point of the user's head (in other words, inside the skull).
 - The face mesh consists of hundreds of vertices that make up the face, and is defined relative to the center pose.
 2. The AugmentedFace class uses the face mesh and center pose to identify face region poses on the user's face. These regions are:
 - Left forehead (LEFT_FOREHEAD)
 - Right forehead (RIGHT_FOREHEAD)
 - Tip of the nose (NOSE_TIP)
These elements -- the center pose, face mesh, and face region poses -- comprise the augmented face mesh and are used by AugmentedFace APIs as positioning points and regions to place the assets in your app.
Next steps
Start using Augmented Faces in your own apps. To learn more, see:

According to the release, children are susceptible to the irritation — which can cause painful and itchy skin eruptions — after repeated use of wooden toilet seats or those with harsh cleaning chemical residue.
Johns Hopkins Children''s Center investigator Bernard Cohen, M.D. said: "Toilet seat dermatitis is one of those legendary conditions described in medical textbooks and seen in underdeveloped countries, but one that younger pediatricians have not come across in their daily practice. If our small analysis is any indication of what''s happening, we need to make sure the condition is on every pediatrician''s radar."
Cohen says that toilet seats and cleaners — both at home and school — may be the culprit for irritation.
To prevent toilet seat dermatitis, Cohen recommends: Using paper toilet seat covers in public restrooms; replacing wooden toilet seats with plastic ones; cleaning toilet seats and bowls daily; and avoiding harsh cleaners containing skin irritants like phenol and formaldehyde, the story noted.
Lead Researcher Ivan Litvinov, Ph.D. said: "Some of the children in our study suffered for years before the correct diagnosis was made."
Researchers also noted that persistently irritated skin is vulnerable to bacteria and may lead to more serious infections, the story added.

The annual cost of enjoying a moderate standard of living in retirement has risen by £8,000 in a year, according to the pensions industry body.
The Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association (PLSA) put the yearly price of a retirement income deemed "moderate" for a single person at £31,300 for 2023 to 2024 – up from £23,300 a year earlier.
A "moderate" level of retirement means retirees can afford a monthly meal out and financially help family members with a budget of £1,000.
Costs rose for a "comfortable" level of retirement but the rise was less sharp as research groups said a couple would need only one small second-hand car rather than two cars, which had been seen as needed to retire comfortably in previous years.
The retirement living standards are calculated by the centre for research in social policy at Loughborough University on behalf of the PLSA.
The pandemic is behind an increased desire for socialising expenditure in pension age.
"Following the COVID pandemic, this latest research highlights a pronounced need and enthusiasm among the public for shared experiences beyond the confines of their homes, including activities like eating out and holidays," said Professor Matt Padley, co-director of the centre for research in social policy at Loughborough University.
It follows the publication of the state pension age and demographic change report saying the UK state pension age will have to rise to 71 for middle aged workers.
To have a "minimum" retirement standard, as judged by the research, a single person would need to put away an average of £14,400 every year, up an extra £1,600 from £12,800 a year earlier.
This living standard includes around £95 for a couple's weekly groceries, a week's holiday in the UK, eating out about once a month and some affordable leisure activities about twice a week.
A couple hoping to attain the "moderate" pension needs to bank £43,100 a year, up from £34,000 in 2022 to 2023.
In this category a couple could spend around £100 a week on groceries, £60 a week on eating out, run a small second-hand car, have a week holidaying in Europe and a long weekend break in the UK.
Those looking to retire with a "comfortable" living standard, including regular beauty treatments, theatre trips and two weeks' holiday in Europe a year, need to put aside £43,100 annually, for a single person (up from £37,300 a year earlier) or £59,000 a year for a couple, an increase from £54,500 12 months prior.
The state pension, and the forthcoming 8.5% increase to just over £11,500 per year from April, continued to be a substantial foundation of retirement income, the study said, and this was a reason median average earners could achieve most aspects of the moderate level.

The economics of Burn care
By: Paul Trueman
Hospital Episode Statistics for England and Wales demonstrate the scale of burn injuries and associated costs, with the paediatric and elderly population being the most at risk. In the year 2009/2010 there were:
- Over 11,000 admissions
- Accounting for over 47,000 bed days
- Involving over 3400 critical care admissions
Health and economic impacts of burn care can be divided into direct (healthcare) costs, indirect (non-healthcare) costs and intangible costs (Table 1; Figure 1).
Table 1. Costs associated with burn care.
Reconstruction: specialist care, surgery (ICU, burns unit)
Rehabilitation: Multi-disciplinary inpatient or outpatient care
Reintegration: outpatient and community care
Patient and carer costs
Pain, suffering, quality of life
Figure 1. Distribution of costs in burn care (From Sanchez et al, 2008).
Approaches to burn care
Clinical and economic evidence is required to identify the most efficient approaches to burn care and in this respect economic stakeholders need to recognise the challenges that are inherent in conducting research in this indication. Burn care is not immune from the economic realities facing health services and when addressing the costs associated with treatment options the difficulties inherent in conducting randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in burns patients needs to be appreciated.
Regrettably there is limited evidence on the cost effectiveness of individual dressings/treatments, although early evidence suggests that dressing costs make up a very small fraction of the total cost of care. In assessing overall costs rationale for dressing selection should consider impacts on other total costs, such as reducing pain on dressing change, which may facilitate out-patient management and/or return to work which reduce the financial burden to the hospital system and the patient/economy respectively. With respect to the latter, societal costs of burns typically exceed the healthcare costs in the form of:
- Productivity losses
- Caregiver time
- Home care costs
- Permanent disability in severe cases
Quality of life (QOL) considerations are also important with burn care making an impact on the commonly reported domains of quality of life, either in the acute phase or during rehabilitation (Figure 2). However, there is a lack of robust quantifiable evidence on the impact of burns on QOL, with the available evidence tending to use disease-specific scales such as the Burn Specific Health Scale.
Figure 2. Burns and QOL.
Cost-effective burn care
In defining cost effective burn care it should be emphasised that cost-effective care does not necessarily equate to the least costly care. The true aim is to achieve the best possible outcomes for any given expenditure which can be influenced by:
- Burn severity
- Diagnosis – accuracy and speed
- Intervention, and Treatment pathways.
Regarding burn severity our interests lie primarily in the costs and outcomes of treating non-complex burns.
Looking at both complex and non-complex burns, cost is positively associated with the severity of the burn in question. Griffiths et al (2006) report the mean cost of treating an uncomplicated paediatric minor scald in a UK burns centre to be £1850, whereas costs soar for complex burns as shown by Pellat et al (2010) who reported the mean cost of treating a paediatric burn covering 30-40% of total body surface area (TBSA) to be £63,157. In this respect Klein et al (2008) reported that for each additional TBSA % that was grafted with autologous skin grafts, hospital costs increased by US$2,639.
Cost is also associated with patient age; children account for 40-50% of all severe burn injuries whereas the elderly account for between 10% and 16% of all severe burn injuries. With respect to mean levels of hospital stay, which also drives the cost of treatment and increases with burn severity, Brusselaers et al (2010) report this to be 15-16 days in the paediatric population and 18-26 days in the elderly population. Hospital episode statistics from England and Wales demonstrate the impact that burn severity has on costs in relation to average length of stay (ALOS), with length of stay and associated costs increasing with severity (Table 2)
[Insert table 2]
Table 2. Burn severity and ALOS
In a prospective, cross-sectional study in a Spanish burn centre, Sanchez et al (2008) collected information on healthcare and non-healthcare costs for 898 patient admissions categorised according to DRG code. Mean annual healthcare costs ranged from US$5,000 – US$41,000 (Figure 3).
[Insert Fig 3]
Figure 3. Healthcare and non-healthcare costs relating to burn care (From Sanchez et al, 2008).
Burns have far reaching health and economic impact. However, the commoner non-complex burns are relatively inexpensive. High cost severe burns are relatively rare, but when looking at individuals with severe burns the high associated expense leads to a general perception that burn care is expensive to treat across the board. Non-healthcare costs are associated with a high proportion of the cost relating to burn patients

MULTI-EFFECT VACUUM EVAPORATION
ZEWATECH vacuum evaporation equipment with various effects takes advantage of the condensation energy from one boiler to heat the next one and so on, so that energy savings decrease with the number of effects.
Logically, the investment of a multi-effect vacuum evaporator is higher, but the energy cost can be substantially reduced based on the effects installed.
The multi-effect technology developed by ZEWATECH makes it possible to treat large volumes of wastewater, between 10,000 and 150,000 liters per day, with significant financial savings and reduced environmental impact that this entails.
The use of various effects allows energy consumption to be reduced to values close to 70%, depending on the type of water and the number of effects.

In places like Nova Scotia's fishing communities, a forerunner was historically considered an omen for the future. In this collection, I consider how a forerunner also refers to the people or things that came before: my family's history in Maritime culture and tradition. Throughout my career I have sought to express my identity as a Maritime artist through bringing my sense of 'home' into my work, showing unexpected beauty in the reinterpretation of forms found in my surroundings.
The pieces in Forerunner turn this gaze back on my family's place in this landscape, and our connections to fishing, farming, logging and hunting. It is a collection where these divergent themes emerge in pieces that feature ordinary applied materials and atypical colour, juxtaposed with rich textures and shapes. Rugged, with an understated beauty, each composition has a distinct and playful narrative that speaks to the gift and bounty of the land and sea.

Connecting to ODBC databases from Python with pyodbc
The section below provides a Python code sample that shows you how to connect to a database using the functions of the pyodbc module and Devart ODBC driver that implements the ODBC standard in data mapping. This code also works, with slight modifications, for accessing data in cloud applications from Python, such as Mailchimp, Salesforce, Dynamics 365, BigCommerce, or QuickBooks.
Need to connect Python to an ODBC database such as Oracle, MySQL, or SQL Server? You can do it with an open-source Python module pyodbc, Devart ODBC driver, and a few lines of code. The pyodbc module implements the Python DB API 2.0 specification, which was designed to provide a consistent interface to various databases and help developers write apps that can work with different databases without significant code changes. Python applications use an ODBC driver manager and ODBC driver to connect to the database server.
To connect to a database and retrieve data using the Python progamming language, you only need a few functions:
 - connect() function to create a connection to the database;
 - cursor() function to create a cursor from the connection;
 - execute() function to execute a select statement;
 - fetchone() function to retrieve rows from the query.
Steps to connect to ODBC database in Python
with pyodbc module
Install the driver and configure an ODBC data source in the driver settings
01.Import the pyodbc module and create a connection to the database.
import pyodbc
cnxn = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER={Devart ODBC Driver for SQLite};Direct=True;Database=mydatabase')
Start SQL Server Management Studio and create a linked server
02.Execute an INSERT statement to test the connection to the database.
cursor = cnxn.cursor()
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO EMP (EMPNO, ENAME, JOB, MGR) VALUES (535, 'Scott', 'Manager', 545)")
Run a query against the data storage
03.Retrieve a result set from a query, iterate over it and print out all records.
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM EMP")
row = cursor.fetchone()
while row:
 print (row)
 row = cursor.fetchone()
Key Features
Direct mode
Native connection to traditional databases and cloud-based services from Python using an ODBC driver.

Outstanding places in Northern Ireland (Part 3)
Let's see where I'm going to take you this time.
 1. The Old Bushmills Distillery
Despite not being a person who likes whiskey I enjoy visiting those places that are culturally and economically so important for the development of the areas where they are implemented. This time I visited the oldest distillery in the world, located in county Antrim, Northern Ireland, the Old Bushmills Distillery. This Irish distillery has been transforming "water into gold" since 1608. To make whiskey you only need three things: barley, starch and water. This process has five stages: malting (where the barley is soaked in water), mashing (the process of extracting sugars from the barley originating what is called wort), fermentation (the wort goes into stainless steel tanks to turn the sugars into alcohol, this liquid is called wash and the percentage of alcohol is very small, only 8%), distillation (the wash is distilled three times and the liquid at this stage has an alcoholic strength of 80%) and maturation (where the spirit is put into oak casks of three types: bourbon, sherry and Madeira casks, all of them are second hand casks. The ones that are going to produce older whiskeys and therefore more expensive are stored in Port Wine (sherry) and Madeira casks). The Bushmills Single Malt Whiskey 21 year old can cost £150 per bottle!

 1. Marble Arch Caves
Located in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland the Marble Arch Caves are a UNESCO Global Geopark. Those limestone caves are the longest known cave system in Northern Ireland with 11.5 Km. Located in a stunning area here you will have the chance to see and explore the formation of stalactites and stalagmites. Although the caves were only found in the 19th century by Édouard-Alfred Martel, these limestone caves are millions of years old.
If you are planning to visit the caves don't forget to book in advance.
The guides will take you down to the underground caves where the journey starts with a boat trip through the chambers. The rest of the journey you will be walking so make sure you bring comfortable shoes. Some of the caves' formations are amazing. Did you know that a stalactite can take 100 years to grow just one millimetre?
Be prepared to do some stepping and the journey ends with a climb of 150 stairs. Don't complain, it's good to keep you fit!

 1. The Gobbins Cliff Path
Located in County Antrim, Northern Ireland the Gobbins Cliff Path is in a spectacular, dramatic location overlooking the Irish sea.
The original path opened in 1902 thanks to a visionary called Berkeley Deane Wise, a chief engineer from the railway company who saw the potential of this area in attracting visitors to this beautiful location. But due to the high costs of maintaining the path it was closed during the second world war. The new path re-opened in 2014.
The journey starts at the Gobbins visitor centre. Don't forget to book in advance. There you will watch a video explaining the place. You will be provided with a helmet and if you don't have appropriate boats don't worry, they will provide that as well. A short bus journey will take you with your guide to the Gobbins. The tour has a duration of approximately 2,5 hours. A steep descend will take you to the Wise's Eye, a narrow entrance that will unravel a magical world with paths (some narrow), bridges, the crashing waves, a cave and the climax, the bird watching. This place harbours puffins, guillemots, razorbills, kittiwakes and shags.
In a clear day you have views to Scotland and the Rathlin Island (you can see my post about this mesmerizing island: _URL_
Then get ready for the way back and climb 100 stairs and a steep path that will bring you back to the mini bus. A very good workout for your heart!

 _USER_ I'm familiar with the answer button; this was indeed meant to be a passing comment (trom my smartphone) rather than a complete answer. If it does happen to be the correct and complete answer, feel free to post it. (I see that you did exactly that and I will +1) – TypeIA May 31 '19 at 8:34
As TypeIA pointed out, the wrong form of "invigorate" is used here. Invigorate is a verb, and in this sentence it is used as if it were an adjective. Changing the word to "invigorating" gives us this sentence, which is grammatically correct:
The aroma of the invigorating morning cup of tea comes wafting up the stairway and soon I am sipping it slowly and reverentially without rushing.
It should be noted that, while this new sentence is grammatically valid, it still has what is almost certainly an error; "it," the object of "sipping" in the second clause, refers to the subject of the first clause, "aroma." It is very likely the author meant they were sipping the tea, but the sentence states that they are sipping its aroma.

A Three-Dimensional FDTD Subgridding Algorithm with Separated Temporal and Spatial Interfaces and Related Stability Analysis
A finite-different time-domain subgrid algorithm locally refines the mesh at regions requiring higher resolution. A novel separation of spatial and temporal subgridding interfaces is presented that allows implementing a novel spatial subgridding method and investigating the stability of each subalgorithm individually. Details are given for a spatial subgridding algorithm having a 1:3 mesh ratio. In the spatial subgridding algorithm, the fine-mesh is constructed with a recessed interface and the interpolation scheme is designed to be symmetric to maintain the stability of the update process. The stability of the spatial subgridding algorithm is analyzed with a matrix method. Numerical examples showing stability and accuracy are provided.

Medium and Heavy Trucks
Have Truck Repair Questions? Ask an Expert
Well it could be a bad sensor giving you the issues. The best thing to do is verify the oil level, and perform a manual gauge reading to determine what the oil pressure is. Not sure you have that option but if the truck is seeing low oil pressure the software could be cutting the fuel to a de-rated position. You will need to fix issue or bypass to get the power back but with out knowing the real pressure it a risky move.
Well it will depend on the sensor, and age of the truck. If it is a three or four wire sensor then most likely its using a 5 volt feed and a ground then using a third wire to send a small voltage back to the ecu between 1-4 volts. You will need to use resistors between the power (5v) wire and the signal wire to send a voltage reading lower than the 5 volts to ecu. You could also swap the sender if it has the same design like for instance a fuel pressure sender to see if it makes a difference. If its a two wire sender then its a open or close type so unplug and bridge the connectors or leave disconnected to see if light goes out.
there is no way of knowing that without the proper test first. You could ruin the engine or it could be just a sender failure thats why the manual reading is required.
best of luck, your welcome
hello, thank you for the update. Odd i would think the engine was just worked on or someone did that on purpose. The manual reading would have shown that your pressure was low so at least you know the system was working. Thanks for letting me know but sorry for your troubles.


Why Single Mothers Could Need An Emergency Loan
Some single mothers struggle financially more often than families who bring in two salaries. Single mothers have to provide for their children and pay bills with only one income, which is why they would need emergency loans from NZ lenders. An emergency loan could assist them with the following:
1) Groceries
Growing kids eat a lot. They always seem to be hungry and need a consistently balanced diet to keep them healthy and growing strong. However, healthy food isn't always what they get, because foods that are laden with sugars and preservatives are typically cheaper than fresh produce. If a single mother was struggling financially, she might save money by buying food of lower-quality, or that which is more affordable. And if the pantry ran out of food before her next pay came in, she could get an emergency loan to buy odds and ends, and staple foods, that have run out.
2) School Trips And Supplies
For a single mother, her children's school fees would be a part of her monthly budget. However, on a single salary, she could struggle to pay for extra expenses that haven't been accounted for. For example, if her child has a school trip, or needs additional stationary or supplies. These items don't always come with a warning, and sometimes there's no money left over to pay for them. But with an emergency loan from an NZ lender, she could pay for the school trip, or get what her children need.
3) Emergency Healthcare
Childhood injuries are common, and parents always need to be prepared for a scraped knee, or, heaven forbid, a trip to the emergency room. However, single parents might not always have enough money saved up for emergencies. But luckily, if a child fell ill and needed medication, a single mother could apply for an emergency loan online, and get approval on the same day.
Some Tips For Applying For Emergency Loans In NZ
If you're a single mother looking at emergency loans from NZ lenders, be clear-headed and focused. Find interest rates that you can afford, and check your lender's credibility before handing over your private information.
Having money troubles as a single mother is not uncommon, but it doesn't have to become a burden. If you need additional financing to get through to your next paycheck, try getting emergency loans from private lenders in NZ. They're manageable, easy to repay, and short-term.


Having multiple network types, you can merge the one needed for a special type of hardware with other class files and create a new control file which suits the system being installed.
5.3 Mixing Rules and Classes Edit source
It is possible to mix rules and classes during an auto-installation session. For example you can identify a system using rules which contain class definitions in them. The process is described in the figure Figure A.1, "Rules Retrieval Process".
After retrieving the rules and merging them, the generated control file is parsed and checked for class definitions. If classes are defined, then the class files are retrieved from the original repository and a new merge process is initiated.
5.4 Merging of Rules and Classes Edit source
With classes and with rules, multiple XML files get merged into one resulting XML file. This merging process is often confusing for people, because it behaves different than one would expect. First of all, it is important to note that the names of the top sections in the merged XML files must be in alphabetical order for the merge to succeed.
For example, the following two XML parts should be merged:
<partitioning config:type="list">
 <drive>
 <partitions config:type="list">
 <partition>
 <filesystem config:type="symbol">swap</filesystem>
 <format config:type="boolean">true</format>
 <mount>swap</mount>
 <partition_id config:type="integer">130</partition_id>
 <size>2000mb</size>
 </partition>
 <partition>
 <filesystem config:type="symbol">xfs</filesystem>
 <partition_type>primary</partition_type>
 <size>4Gb</size>
 <mount>/data</mount>
 </partition>
 </partitions>
 </drive>
</partitioning>
<partitioning config:type="list">
 <drive>
 <initialize config:type="boolean">false</initialize>
 <partitions config:type="list">
 <partition>
 <format config:type="boolean">true</format>
 <filesystem config:type="symbol">xfs</filesystem>
 <mount>/</mount>
 <partition_id config:type="integer">131</partition_id>
 <partition_type>primary</partition_type>
 <size>max</size>
 </partition>
 </partitions>
 <use>all</use>
 </drive>
</partitioning>
You might expect the control file to contain 3 partitions. This is not the case. You will end up with two partitions and the first partition is a mix up of the swap and the root partition. Settings configured in both partitions, like mount or size, will be used from the second file. Settings that only exist in the first or second partition, will be copied to the merged partition too.
In this example, you do not want a second drive. The two drives should be merged into one. With regard to partitions, three separate ones should be defined. Using the dont_merge method solves the merging problem:
<classes config:type="list">
 <class>
 <class_name>swap</class_name>
 <configuration>largeswap.xml</configuration>
 <dont_merge config:type="list">
 <element>partition</element>
 </dont_merge>
 </class>
</classes>
<rule>
 <board_vendor>
 <match>ntel</match>
 <match_type>regex</match_type>
 </board_vendor>
 <result>
 <profile>classes/largeswap.xml</profile>
 <continue config:type="boolean">true</continue>
 <dont_merge config:type="list">
 <element>partition</element>
 </dont_merge>
 </result>
 <board_vendor>
 <match>PowerEdge [12]850</match>
 <match_type>regex</match_type>
 </board_vendor>
 <result>
 <profile>classes/smallswap.xml</profile>
 <continue config:type="boolean">true</continue>
 <dont_merge config:type="list">
 <element>partition</element>
 </dont_merge>
 </result>

Copperhead was a term applied to northerners who favored the Confederate cause during the Civil War. The name came from the poisonous snake, which had a reputation for striking and injecting its venom with no warning.
The Copperheads were opposed to the abolition of slavery, sought to undermine the Lincoln administration, and openly agitated against the Civil War, urging that peace be made with the south. The best-known Copperhead was an Ohio politician, C.L. Vallandigham, who at one point was arrested by the Union Army and sent into exile to the Confederacy.

The Rebor Carnotaurus "Crimson King Requiem"
The Rebor Carnotaurus "Crimson King Requiem" was introduced in 2017. It replaced an earlier Rebor Carnotaurus "Crimson King". The earlier figure was supplied with a lava field display base.
Picture credit: Everything Dinosaur
The photograph (above) shows the now retired Rebor Carnotaurus from 2017. It was supplied with a display base that was painted to give the impression of this dinosaur walking across a cooling lava field.
To view the range of Rebor models and figures available from Everything Dinosaur: Rebor Models and Prehistoric Animal Figures.
The 2021 Carnotaurus commemorates the retirement of the original "Crimson King" Carnotaurus.
Carnotaurus (C. sastrei) was formally named and described in 1985. Fossils of this large theropod had been found the previous year. The extensive skeletal material consisted of the anterior portion of a single individual animal estimated to measure around 7.5 to 8 metres in length. It was described by the late José Bonaparte.
Since the discovery of Carnotaurus, many more South American abelisaurids have been named and described.

A name that was Recalled by Hanno during his duel with the Black Knight.
Power Level[]
A powerful named meant to be unbeatable on top of a horse. When in a jousting battle or when given enough time to build up speed the name cannot be halted. The Name is especially powerful when leading a vanguard of soldiers in a charge, effectively changing the tide of a battle by massing into a spear of death shredding enemies wherever they go. This makes the weakness of this name apparent, without weapon or a horse the name is crippled.
The name was gained when the Duke rode in a charge that was all but doomed most likely a few riders being lead against a larger force. The individual acts as a beacon of hope for soldiers acting as vanguard.
Special Abilities[]
The knight has a spear that has been augmented the name also wreath both the rider and the mount with light protecting them as well as increasing offensive power.

Spirit of the Past
Spirit — Elva Slonaker: When I moved to Cañon City in 2005, I knew little of the history of Fremont County or of the town. Being a Spirit of the Past has educated me, and I have met a group of amazing women who have greatly brightened my life. I have enjoyed portraying the character of Mrs. Anson P. Rudd. Harriet and Anson were very influential and diligent in their quest to establish Cañon City and for its success. We have Rudd Avenue and Rudd Park as tributes to their efforts.
I feel very blessed to be a resident of modern Cañon City. I am grateful for the labors and achievements of the pioneers who settled this beautiful valley.
Used with permission of the Fremont County Heritage Commission from their booklet, "Spirits of the Past," compiled by Dr. Linda Carlson and Margaret Stiles Storm, 2012.
Harriet Spencer was born July 23, 1818, in New Hampshire. After an 18-year engagement, Harriet married Anson Rudd on Oct. 2, 1856, in Davis County, Iowa.
Anson and Harriet traveled for a while early in their marriage. They were headed toward the gold fields in California in1860 but decided to settle in Cañon City. The population was growing at that time, primarily due to the mining activity in the nearby mountains. However, when the Civil War began most able-bodied men left to fight for one side or the other and the town was almost deserted during the war years.
Anson Rudd, who was born in 1819 in Erie County, Pennsylvania, was a blacksmith. He liked to write poetry and was known as the "Blacksmith Poet." Harriet kept and treasured the beautiful poetry he wrote to her during their long courtship and engagement. He was one of the first pre-Civil War settlers and was considered Cañon City's "founding father." He helped plat the boundaries of Fremont County and served the community in a variety of offices such as Sheriff, County Commissioner, and Postmaster. He was also the first Warden of the "new" Territorial Prison that was built in 1871 on the western edge of the town.
The Rudds built and lived in a small log cabin on the northeast corner of Fourth and Main Streets. It was the first cabin in the area with a wood floor. Their son, Anson S., was born there in 1861. He was the first white child born in Fremont County to survive infancy. Their only other child was a daughter, Flora, who was born in 1857, before they arrived in Cañon City. Sadly, Flora lived only a few months.
The Rudd home was visited by prominent citizens of the day, possibly including Territorial Governors John Evans and Samuel Elbert. The Ute Indian Chief Ouray was a frequent visitor and his friendship with Anson probably contributed to the good relations between the settlers and the Indians. Indians often wandered into town and even into the settlers' cabins. There is a story of Harriet's first encounter with two Indians who entered her cabin while she was ironing. She was standing with her back to the door and when she turned and saw them, she ignored them and they soon left quietly. Harriet made biscuits for the Indians and they loved them, staying and eating until the biscuits ran out. Although the Indians were peaceful, there were a couple of occasions when the settlers prepared for attacks that never came and there were several reports of the Indians stealing food and clothing from time to time.
In 1904, age and illness required Harriet and Anson to move to Denver to be with their son. Anson passed away in 1907 and Harriet died in 1910. Both are buried in the Fairmount Cemetery in Denver.

Suppose $h_1$ is collision resistant, and $h_2$ isn't.
Will $h(x)=h_2(h_1(x))$ always be collision resistant?
[Edited:] the output of h2 must be uniformly distributed
share|improve this question
Not always, but in practice it will often be even for relatively weak hashes $h_2$. The most important property required of $h_2$ is that preserves at least $2n$ bits of entropy, where $n$ is the target security level. (even that's not sufficient in pathological cases) – CodesInChaos Dec 3 '13 at 13:07
"Uniformly distributed" over what? $f(x)=0$ is uniformly distributed over its image of $\{0\}$. – figlesquidge Dec 3 '13 at 13:24
2 Answers 2
Obviously not. For example, the function $h2(x) = 0$ is not collision resistant, $h2(h1(x))$ shares that property.
This remains true even in less trivial cases; if $h2$ is not collision resistant because its output is too short (it has an $n$-bit output, with $2^{n/2}$ being small enough to do a search over), then $h2(h1(x))$ will also be too short
share|improve this answer
Ironically, $H_2(x)$ is collision resistant if you assume the appropriate security claim for the output domain: $1$. – orlp Dec 3 '13 at 15:38
Will they always be collision resistant? No
For example, let $h_2(x)=0$. Then, $h(x)=h_2(h_1(x))=0$, which certainly isn't collision resistant.
Can it be collision resistant? Yes
For example, suppose we define $h_1(x)=\mathrm{SHA256}(x)$ and
$$ h_2(x)=\begin{cases} 0 & |x|=1 \\ \mathrm{SHA256}(x) & \mathrm{else} \end{cases} $$
Then, since the output of $|h_1(x)|=256$, the composition will leave: $$h(x)=\mathrm{SHA256}(\mathrm{SHA256}(x))$$ Which is believed to be collision resistant from the collision resistance of Sha256.
But what if $h_2$ is uniformly distributed across a'sensible' codomain? As before
I add the requirement that it must be uniformly distributed across a sensible codomain since I assume this clarification wishes to prohibit hash functions for which the target space is too small to possibly be secure)
We can trivially create two examples that demonstrate the above properties. Let $W=\{0,1\}^{256}$. Then, as before let $h_1$ be a cryptographically secure hash function, with $h_1 \colon \{0,1\}^* \to W$ (eg SHA256 as above). Define $h_2(x) = h_1(\mathrm{MSB_{256}}(x))$.
Then $h_2$ is not collision resistant (since for any $x\in W$ and $y\in\{0,1\}^*$ we have $h_2(x)=h_2(x||y)$), but as before $h(x)=h_1(h_1((x))$.
Defining $h_2(x) = h_1(\mathrm{LSB_{256}}(\mathrm{MSB}_{512}(x))$ (ie we extract bits 256->511) we get the composition $h(x)=0$ which is not collision resistant.
A slight issue here might be justifying $h_2$ is uniformly distributed, but this comes down to how you attach a distribution to the set of all random strings - ie the distribution taken by $\{0,1\}^*$

Natural mountains and valleys are gradually eroded by rainfall and river flows. Physically-based modeling of this complex phenomenon is a major concern in producing realistic synthesized terrains. However, despite some recent improvements, existing algorithms are still computationally expensive, leading to a time-consuming process fairly impractical for terrain designers and 3D artists. In this paper, we present a new method to model the hydraulic erosion phenomenon which runs at interactive rates on today's computers. The method is based on the velocity field of the running water, which is created with an efficient shallow-water fluid model. The velocity field is used to calculate the erosion and deposition process, and the sediment transportation process. The method has been carefully designed to be implemented totally on GPU, and thus takes full advantage of the parallelism of current graphics hardware. Results from experiments demonstrate that the proposed method is effective and efficient. It can create realistic erosion effects by rainfall and river flows, and produce fast simulation results for terrains with large sizes.

Leave your walker in the bridge
English: Leave your walker in the bridge
French: Laisser votre marchette dans la passerelle
Walkers and passengers' own wheelchairs are larger and probably won't fit anywhere in the cabin of the airplane. Usually, as the passenger boards the plane down the bridge, as they enter the plane, they leave their wheelchairs and walkers at the door of the airplane, inside the bridge. The walker or wheelchair is then taken down by the ramp agents and put into the cargo for the flight. Upon arrival, the walker or wheelchair is brought up again to the door of the airplane and the passenger can use it as soon as they exit the plane.
Sometimes, passengers are unsure where to leave their mobility device. For wheelchairs and walkers, you can tell them to leave them inside the bridge, beside the plane.
Vous pouvez=You can
Laisser=To leave (to allow something to remain)
La chaise (f) roulante=The wheelchair
La marchette (f)=The walker
La passerelle (f)=The bridge (terminal boarding bridge)
Vous pouvez laisser la chaise roulante dans la passerelle.
You can also point to the place in the bridge where they can leave the walker and say:
Vous pouvez laisser la marchette là-bas.
Là-bas=Over there, there
Note that "to leave" can be translated as "partir" or "laisser". "Partir" means "to leave" in the sense of "to depart". "Laisser" means "to leave" in the sense of "allowing something to remain".
Also note the "bridge" that connects the terminal to the airplane is called "passerelle" in French. A generic bridge, over a river for example, is a "pont" (m).

During the India Food and Nutrition Innovation Summit 2021 (IFNIS 2021) – organised by FICCI and Thinking Forks and supported by the Ministry of Food Processing Industries – held from 27-28 October 2021, a knowledge paper titled Innovation in Food & Nutrition: Towards a Healthier India was released.
The report aims to highlight the gaps when it comes to nutrition, emerging consumer and market trends that are driving consumer choices in food and beverage products.
The report was materialised with the help of Protein Food and Nutrition Development Association of India (PFNDAI) and Mintel, which provided insightful data to FICCI and Thinking Forks.
Rinka Banerjee, founder of Thinking Forks Consulting, explained, "Some of the area that is covered in this report is the dietary changes, demographic changes and rapid urbanisation, which is happening in our homes.
Banerjee said the report would touch upon the nutritional status of the country. "India is going through a rapid demographic and nutrition transition. Consumers in India like elsewhere in the world are looking for active healthier lifestyle solutions through food and beverages. This strong stated need has also been accelerated due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This has also led to the growth of categories such as functional foods and nutraceuticals," she stated.
"Equally, India also has the double burden of malnutrition on one end and over nutrition on the other leading to non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, overweight, cardiovascular diseases and so on," Banerjee said. "The food industry is innovating like never before to meet the growing consumer needs and provide healthier choices in food and beverages through extensive R&D in functional ingredients, novel processing technologies, and industry-academia collaborations."
She said the report will highlight the consumer trends, which are driving consumption in the space. "Covid-19 has really prioritised healthy eating for consumers. Consumers are focusing a lot on health when they are shopping for food and of course they're looking for better nutrition in terms of higher protein, lower fat and so on," Banerjee added.
Apart from that, the report will shed light on innovations by small and medium scale enterprises. Banerjee said that consumers today are much aware and are trying to make scientifically validated functional claims based on traditional medicine, and there has been a lot of growth in functional foods.
Banerjee hoped that all stakeholders will make use of the report to make valid and scientific choices in terms of food processing and adopting newer and better technologies.
She explained: "Greater market access through various go-to-market channels is providing a great opportunity for food innovators. In this report there are insights on some of the key trends, nutritional need gaps and Innovations in the Indian marketplace.
"This report also provides a glimpse of the technologies from industry and academia that are enabling growth in food and nutrition related products, charting the path forward towards a healthier India."
