Health Monitoring is very important for large structures like suspension- and cable-stayed bridges, offshore platforms, tall buildings and so on. Due to recent developments in new sensor systems, wireless communication systems, Internet-based data sharing and monitoring, advanced technologies for structure health monitoring (SHM) have been caused much more attentions, in which the wireless sensor network is recently received special interests. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of large populations of wirelessly connected nodes, capable of computation, communication, and sensing. In this paper, a wireless sensor networks based health monitoring system for tall buildings has been explored integrated with wireless sensing communication, computation, data management and data remote access via Internet.
Firstly, a laboratory prototype was designed and developed to demonstrate the feasibility and validity of the proposed system. Wireless sensor nodes were deployed on a test structure, the data being sensed by the sensor nodes in the network is eventually transmitted to a base station, where the information can be accessed. Through a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN, IEEE802.11b), the simulated data was transferred among personal computers and wireless sensor nodes peripherals without cables. And then, a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) includes eight sensor nodes and one base station was installed on Di Wang Tower to verify the performance of the present system in-depth. Finally, comparisons between WSN and cable-based monitoring analytical acceleration responses of field measurement have been performed. The proposed system is shown to be effective for structural health monitoring.

Difference Between Qualitative Analysis and Quantitative Analysis
When a person decides to do a research in a particular field of science and technology, especially where a lot of chemical as well as biochemical substances are involved, he first has to finalise the proper methodology as well as methods as per his topic of research. In case of the methods involving chemical and biochemical substances, the researcher usually opts for quantitative as well as qualitative analysis of the substances.
Now, you must be thinking what is the difference between these two types of analysis? In reality there lies a very important basic difference between these two. On one hand, qualitative analysis deals with the determination of the exact constituents that make up the particular substance under research, and on the other, qualitative analysis deals with the determination of the approximate amount of these constituent materials, present in the substance under research. So, in short, there is a hell and heaven difference between these two terms.
In order to explain these two terms, we can take an example. Suppose a person is arrested in the case of drug abuse. So, different biological samples (blood, urine, saliva etc) are subjected to qualitative analysis in order to determine the nature of drugs that he/she has taken i.e. Heroine or ganja or LSD etc. These same samples are then subjected to quantitative analysis in order to determine the weight or the total quantity of the drugs that was consumed by the convict. Quantitative analysis result is always a numerical value.
Now, if we consider a student working in a school's chemistry lab performing the test for the determining the acidity or basicity of a substance, then that will be referred to as a qualitative analysis. But, if in the same experiment, he/she tries to determine the exact amount of acid or base present in the solution, then that will be quantitative analysis. Qualitative analysis deals with the identification of the presence of a substance based on the presence of its characteristic features while quantitative analysis deals with calculating the numerical value of the substance present.

The design museum in Helsinki has a well-displayed reference collection of Finnish design as well as a programme of temporary exhibitions. As it is celebrating its140th anniversary there is a special exhibition now of major design objects with a time line around the walls that traces the history of design in Finland. This line starts in 1630 with instructions from King Gustavus II Adolphus for a collection of historical heritage and later points include the founding of the Fiskars ironworks in1649 and the opening of the Finlayson Cotton Mill in Tampere in 1820.
What this highlights is the uncertainty or ambivalence felt by some designers. Is their role a link to traditional crafts, because part of their work is to understand the process of making, or is their work industrial and therefore mechanical because economic reality and simple practicality dictates that now most furniture or tableware has to be manufactured commercially?
A school of crafts was founded in Helsinki in 1871 but it was in 1873 that the school's teaching collection was organised to form the basis of a Museum of Applied Arts. Many of the objects in the collection came from the Vienna Trade Fair of that year. So, at first, the idea was to teach through showing outstanding examples of craftsmanship. In 1875 a Finnish Society of Crafts was established and the Society then maintained the school and the museum.
From 1878 until 1911 the Keeper of the museum was Ernst Nordström (_PHONE_) who was also principal of the craft school so teaching and learning from crafts of the past were seen as inextricably linked with contemporary design.
The establishment of the design museum in Helsinki reflects the similar history of a move from hand crafted pieces to commercial manufacture in England... remember that the Victoria and Albert Museum was founded both as a reaction to industrialisation, with a collection of master pieces of craft, but also as a celebration of manufacturing ingenuity.
The collection in Helsinki was put into store in 1954 and it was only in 1979 that the present building in Korkeavuorenkatu, formerly the Broberg High School, was adapted for the museum. In 1992 the museum was given the status of a national specialist museum and in the following year it was separated from the Finnish Society of Craft and Design.
The museum has beautiful and thought-provoking displays and here good design is clearly revered. There is an extensive shop with an impressive selection of design books and carefully-chosen design objects for sale but I detected either a sense of uncertainty, because of the current economy, or perhaps simply a search for affirmation and support. A large quiet room has been set aside and comfortable seating and paper and pens are provided for visitors to write their thoughts down. A text, written on the wall, begins "Museums are not dusty storehouses, but instead treasure troves. For one thing, they contain stories and experiences. Secondly museums have good cafes and thirdly... You tell us."

The CSSGrid control provides a grid-based layout system, with rows and columns, making it easier to design web pages without having to use floats and positioning.
While regular controls (such as Buttons and Labels) can be added directly to a CSSGrid, there is a special control called CSSGridItem which is used to define sections within the Grid. CSSGridItems can be combined to make irregular sections in the CSSGrid. In the above example, the top row of the CSSGrid has been merged into a single control called Header.
The CSSGrid control can be used as a wrapper for other controls you have set up in your project. Add them to the Design Screen as usual, then right click in a CSSGrid and use Add Child. The control will then move into the CSSGrid. If you reposition the CSSGrid, the included controls ("children") will move with it. Use right click Remove Child to take a child out of a CSSGrid.
CSSGrids can contain other CSSGrids.
To add a CSSGrid control to your app, choose the CSSGrid icon in the Toolbox, then position it on the Design Screen. Use the Property Editor to set the properties you need. Right click in the CSSGrid to add children.
At runtime, controls can be added as children to the CSSGrid or CSSGridItems using the addChild() function:
Here are some useful resources for learning more about using CSSGrid:
The CSSGrid will not appear properly in the Design Screen of AppStudio on Windows. The Design Screen uses IE11 to render images: IE11 does not handle the CSSGrid properly. If you run your app in Chrome, it will render properly. MacOS is fine.
alignContent and justifyContent
The alignContent and justifyContent properties define how the CSSGrid will look. Both have the same possible values.
To see their effect, run the CSSGrid sample which comes with AppStudio. It has Select boxes which let you play with both settings so you can see the effect.
|start||The items are packed flush to each other toward the start edge of the alignment container in the cross axis|
|end||Aligns the grid to be flush with the end edge of the grid container.|
|center||The items are packed flush to each other toward the center of the alignment container along the cross axis.|
|stretch||The items are shown so that the combined size exactly fills the alignment container along the cross axis.|
|space-around||The empty space before the first and after the last item equals half of the space between each pair of adjacent items.|
|space-between||Place an even amount of space between each grid item, with no space at the far ends.|
|space-evenly||Place an even amount of space between each grid item, including the far ends.|
|alignContent||The align-content property is used to align the whole grid vertically inside the container. See above for options.|
|gridTemplateColumns||Defines the line names and track sizing functions of the grid columns.|
example: auto auto auto
|gridTemplateRows||Defines the line names and track sizing functions of the grid rows.|
example: auto auto auto
|gridTemplateAreas||Specifies named grid areas. Each line of the grid has a list of area names. The line are grouped by single quote signs. example:|
'header header header header header header''menu main main main right right''menu footer footer footer footer footer'
|gridColumnGap||Sets the size of the gap between an element's columns. Can be 'normal', px, %, etc.|
|gridRowGap||Sets the size of the gap between an element's rows. Can be 'normal', px, %, etc.|
Standard properties are supported, plus:
|addChild(control)||control is added to the Control. Runtime.|
|attributes||A list of HTML attributes. To prevent jQuery Mobile from styling the element, use data-role=none. Attributes are separated by spaces. Design time.|

For this major exhibition, Foundling Fellow Cornelia Parker has invited over sixty outstanding artists from a range of creative disciplines to respond to the theme of 'found', reflecting on the Museum's heritage.
Combining new and existing work with found objects kept for their significance, the exhibition unfolds throughout the Museum, interacting with historic works in the Collection and with each other. Parker's inspiration has in part been taken from the Museum's eighteenth-century tokens – small objects left by mothers with their babies as a means of identification should they ever return to claim their child.
Artists participating in FOUND include: Ron Arad, Phyllida Barlow, Jarvis Cocker, Richard Deacon, Tacita Dean, Jeremy Deller, Brian Eno, Antony Gormley, Mona Hatoum, Thomas Heatherwick, Christian Marclay, Mike Nelson, David Shrigley, Wolfgang Tillmans, Edmund de Waal, Mark Wallinger, Marina Warner, Rachel Whiteread and Jeanette Winterson.
More than twenty Royal Academicians have contributed to the show, echoing the role that the Foundling Hospital played in the development of the Royal Academy. Founded in 1739 to care for babies at risk of abandonment, the Foundling Hospital was supported by the leading artists of the day, many of whom donated work, thanks to the revolutionary involvement of the artist William Hogarth and the composer George Frideric Handel. The Royal Academy's origins can be traced back to the collective mobilisation of artists and the promotion of British art that took place at the Hospital during the eighteenth century.


text: The affinities of enantiomers of conformationally restricted melatonin analogues for the ML-1 and ML-2 putative melatonin receptor subtypes are reported. Most ligands exhibited reversed stereoselectivity when competing with 125I 2-iodomelatonin binding to chicken retinal (ML-1) and hamster brain (ML-2) membranes, further supporting the biochemical and pharmacological differences reported for these two sites. Based on the data for the ML-1 site and thorough conformational analyses of several ligands, two pharmacophore models were derived using the program APOLLO. The pharmacophoric elements included were putative receptor points from the amide NH, the amide CO, and the methoxy-O, together with the normal through the phenyl ring. The large drop in ML-1 affinity observed for 4-methoxy-2-acetamido-indan (6a) could not be explained from either of these models. Minireceptors were subsequently built around the two pharmacophores using Yak. Analysis of the resulting ligand-minireceptor interactions offered an explanation for the low affinity of 6a and allowed one of the pharmacophore models to be selected for use in future drug design.

Storm Eunice: What is a sting jet?
- Credit: Nick Butcher
As Storm Eunice begins to cause disruption across the country, experts have warned the sting jet could be similar to the Great Storm of 1987.
With 90mph winds forecasted in parts of the UK, the Met Office said the phenomenon could cause "significant damage and risk to life".
Here is what you need to know about sting jets.
What is a sting jet?
A sting jet is named due to the resemblance to the sting in a scorpion's tail, with the Met Office describing how the weather phenomenon can be spotted as it develops on satellite image.
The sting in the tail is produced by a distinct jet of air - the sting jet.
It starts out three or four kilometres above the ground and descends over three or four hours.

How does a sting jet form?
A sting jet forms when weather fronts separate areas of warm and cold air and this interaction creates and develops wet and windy weather.
There are more focused streams of warm and cold air close to the weather fronts, known as conveyor belts – with the warm conveyor rising and the cold conveyor falling.
The Met Office said these "wrap around the area of low pressure and help develop it by feeding warm air and moisture into the system".
How can the Met Office forecast a sting jet?
Although a sting jet is said to be difficult to forecast due to the relatively small size and the way each low pressure system develops, it is possible to spot a sting jet developing on satellite images.
This is because at the end of the cold conveyor is marked by a hook-shaped cloud with a point at the end.
The sting jet often looks like the sting in a scorpion's tail, hence the name sting jet.
Types of satellite images show the amount of water vapour which is made up of light and dark shades there is.
When have they happened in the past?
According to the Met Office, the Great Storm of 87' had average wind speeds of up to 86mph but gusts were much higher than expected with an estimated 15m trees brought down by the conditions.
The last time the UK had a storm that had winds over 80mph was Storm Dennis in February 2020 at 81mph.

Swirling winds of diamond dust, rainbow refractions everywhere, deep sounds emanating from under the ice. Artists Darren Almond and Jacob Kirkegaard share their extraordinary experiences of the Arctic.
Meet English artist Darren Almond and Danish artist Jacob Kirkegaard in this video where they talk of their different approaches to the interpretation of the Arctic - Kirkegaard works with sound under the ice, and Almond with pictures over the ice - yet they both share similar observations.
Both Darren Almond and Jacob Kirkegaard have wondered about the space and colors of the Arctic: "If I should imagine the Arctic in sound, I'd definitely imagine something vertical" begins Jacob Kirkegaard. "To me the Arctic existed when the world was flat" says Darren Almond: "I went to the Arctic to experience this flatness."
"I went looking for the space beynd the space we live in." Travelling to the Antarctic made Almond aware of how humans occupy the world on a vertical axis, between sea level and treeline. Almond has created numerous works based on his experience of the Arctic, amongst others the Arctic Plate series seen in this video (2003).
"You get these swirling winds of diamond dust, so you get these rainbows refractions everywhere, it's very hypnotic, mesmeric kind of experience" says Darren Almond – but both he and Kirkegaard call the Arctic a kind of monochrome. It heightens your senses, and makes you focus on all the small details: "What is there? Is there really nothing? Or, wow, there is something."
Jacob Kirkegaard talks about his experience of the Arctic as well as of the creation of his recent work ISFALD (Icefall) which is audible in the video. The installation is a dark room with sounds rising from precise points on the floor - recordings of ice sheets falling into the sea, melting or scratching against on another.
The Arctic has very deep sounds, and very high sounds, but no sounds in the middle, Kirkegaard says, and explains how he uses his equipment to record the sounds that are almost impossible to hear with the human ear: "The deep sound is so deep, that you can hardly hear it. But you know it's under the water."
English artist Darren James Almond (b. 1971) works in a variety of media including photography and film, which he uses to explore the effects of time on the individual. He uses film, photography and sculptural work to harnesses the symbolic and emotional potential of objects, places and situations, producing works which have universal as well as personal resonances.
Danish artist Jacob Kirkegaard (b.1975) is best known for his sound installations, such as 'AION' (2006) which was recently part of MoMa's first major exhibition of sound art: Soundings. AION is a recording of abandoned spaces at Chernobyl. Kirkegaard recorded ten minutes within each space and then played the recording back into the room, layering the sound to create a unique tone emanating from a seeming void.
Kirkegaard is a graduate of the Academy for Media Arts in Cologne (2006) and is currently based in Berlin, Germany. Parallel to his studies, he has been giving lectures on sound and space at the Royal Architect Academy and at the Art Academy in Copenhagen.

The wreck of the cruise ship Costa Concordia in Italy is a sobering human tragedy, with at least 11 deaths and more missing. Sadly, it could become an environmental tragedy as well.
The Costa Concordia capsized Friday night near the Tuscan Archipelago National Park, the largest marine sanctuary in the Mediterranean. The park is home to a variety of dolphins and whales, and its corals and seagrass create an important habitat for a variety of other plants and animals. Oceana visited the area during a 2006 expedition, documenting the health of the marine life there.
If the ship's fuel leaks before the salvage team has a chance to drain it, the endangered and threatened species that live near the wreck will suffer.
"The tragic wreck occurred in a protected area that is home to many endangered species, so a spill would cause severe damage to organisms such as cetaceans, sharks and coral," said Ricardo Aguilar, research director at Oceana Europe. This would be a great tragedy for the area, which in the past has suffered coral death due to climate change.
We here at Oceana extend our sympathy to the victims and their families. We can only hope that the tragedy ends here, and does not have a lasting impact on the underwater inhabitants of Giglio Island.

I'm trying to write a function (deep-find) that takes in a list and another argument and returns T if that argument is present in the list. For example, if I called (deep-find '(A B (C D)) 'C) it should return true, but if I called (deep-find '(A B (C D)) 'F) it should return false. Here's the code I have so far, but it returns nil every time:
(defun deep-find (L n)
 (cond
 ((null L) nil)
 ((equal n (car L)) t)
 ((deep-find (cdr L) n))))
Answer:
Your code does not return NIL every time; it works well for simple lists. For instance (deep-find '(A B (C D)) 'A) returns T as it should.
You have three cases in your cond: end of list, list head check, and list tail check. However, there is nothing regarding trees in that. So, you need another condition that recurses into the deeper levels of a tree in case of a branch in the tree:
(defun deep-find (L n)
 (cond
 ((null L) nil)
 ((equal n (car L)) t)
 ((listp (car L)) ; in case of a branch,
 (or (deep-find (car L) n) ; check the branch,
 (deep-find (cdr L) n))) ; and check rest of the list
 ((deep-find (cdr L) n))))

 Abstract
 The latissimus dorsi flap has been widely used in breast reconstruction surgery. Despite its potential advantages such as low donor morbidity and vascular reliability, the complication of donor-site seroma formation frequently occurs. Consecutive 174 patients who underwent breast reconstruction with the latissimus dorsi flap from 2001 to 2006 were retrospectively reviewed. The age, body mass index (BMI), smoking history, timing of reconstruction, type of breast surgery and nodal dissection, and several other intraoperative data were analyzed. The overall incidence of postoperative seroma was 21%. Increased age (>50 years) and obesity (BMI >23 kg/m) were significant risk factors for seroma formation (P = 0.02 and 0.004, respectively). The patients who underwent skin-sparing mastectomy or modified radical mastectomy had higher incidence of seroma formation (28% and 33%, respectively) as compared with those who had breast-conservative surgery (11%). A significant correlation was found between the type of breast surgery and the incidence of seroma (P = 0.04). The type of nodal dissection did not affect the incidence of postoperative seroma (P = 0.66). We concluded that increased age, obesity, and invasive breast surgery are risk factors for donor-site seroma formation after breast reconstruction with the latissimus dorsi flap. Close attention should be paid to prevent development of postoperative seroma when operating on such high-risk patients.

We describe a high-resolution real-time spectroscopy system targeted to ethane gas with sensitivity ≥70 ppt and response time from ≥0.7 s. The measurement technique is based on a mid-IR lead-salt laser passing through a Herriott cell through which a gas sample flows. We compare wavelength scanning and locked configurations and discuss their relative merits. The technology has been motivated by clinical breath testing applications, ethane being widely regarded as the most important breath biomarker for cell damage via free-radical-mediated oxidative attack. We discuss preliminary human and animal studies in which ultrasensitive real-time ethane detection offers new diagnostic and monitoring potential.

|Occupation||Comedian, musician, entertainer, actor, poet|
Heinz Erhardt (20 February 1909 – 5 June 1979) was a German comedian, musician, entertainer, actor, and poet.
Heinz Erhardt was born in Riga, the son of Baltic German Kapellmeister Gustl Erhardt. He lived most of his childhood at his grandparents in Riga, where his grandfather, Paul Nelder, owned a music house. His grandfather also taught him how to play the piano.
After World War I, his father emigrated to Germany. Erhardt lived with his stepmother in Wennigsen near Hanover, where he attended school, until in 1924 he returned to Riga. From 1926 he studied at the Leipzig conservatory; however, Erhardt's wish to become a professional pianist was not supported by his grandparents who wanted him to work as a merchant. In 1935, Erhardt married Gilda Zanetti, daughter of the Italian consul in Saint Petersburg. They had four children: Grit, Verena, Gero, and Marita. Gero Erhardt became a film director and cinematographer, and his grandson, Marek Erhardt, became an actor.
Working at his grandfather's business, Erhardt alongside entered the stage as a cabaret artist in several Riga coffeehouses, and in 1937 even appeared on the German RRG radio. The next year, Erhardt moved to Berlin, where he performed on a Kabarett stage on Kurfürstendamm. The spectacle wearer and non-swimmer Erhardt was drafted into the German Kriegsmarine navy during World War II, but only on the third call-up; he served as a pianist in the Marine orchestra and only handled weapons during his basic training.
After the Second World War he moved to Hamburg-Wellingsbüttel and from 1948 worked as a radio presenter at the public NWDR radio station. From then on he became more and more famous for his countless pun poems. Also, he became a popular film actor and a mime. In his films he always played a character that fit his stage persona as an entertainer and comedian. His roles were polite and slightly weird persons typical of the West German Wirtschaftswunder ("economic miracle") era of the 1950s and 60s.
Heinz Erhardt suffered a stroke in 1971, which left him unable to speak or write. He was limited to reading and understanding the speech of others; these limitations ended his long career as an actor.
He was awarded the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany (Bundesverdienstkreuz) four days before his death in 1979.

Tensor Attributes
Each torch.Tensor has a torch.dtype, torch.device, and torch.layout.
class torch.dtype
A torch.dtype is an object that represents the data type of a torch.Tensor. PyTorch has nine different data types:
Data type
Tensor types
32-bit floating point
torch.float32 or torch.float
64-bit floating point
torch.float64 or torch.double
16-bit floating point
torch.float16 or torch.half
8-bit integer (unsigned)
8-bit integer (signed)
16-bit integer (signed)
torch.int16 or torch.short
32-bit integer (signed)
torch.int32 or
64-bit integer (signed)
torch.int64 or torch.long
 - If the type of a scalar operand is of a higher category than tensor operands (where floating > integral > boolean), we promote to a type with sufficient size to hold all scalar operands of that category.
 - If a zero-dimension tensor operand has a higher category than dimensioned operands, we promote to a type with sufficient size and category to hold all zero-dim tensor operands of that category.
 - If there are no higher-category zero-dim operands, we promote to a type with sufficient size and category to hold all dimensioned operands.
Promotion Examples:
>>> int_tensor = torch.ones(1,
# zero-dim tensors
>>> int_zerodim = torch.tensor(1,
>>> torch.add(5, 5).dtype
>>> (int_tensor + 5).dtype
>>> (int_tensor + long_zerodim).dtype
>>> (long_tensor + int_tensor).dtype
>>> (bool_tensor + long_tensor).dtype
>>> (bool_tensor + uint_tensor).dtype
>>> (float_tensor + double_tensor).dtype
>>> (bool_tensor + int_tensor).dtype
# to hold the float.
>>> torch.add(long_tensor, float_tensor).dtype
 - An integral output tensor cannot accept a floating point tensor.
 - A boolean output tensor cannot accept a non-boolean tensor.
Casting Examples:
# allowed:
>>> float_tensor *= double_tensor
>>> float_tensor *= int_tensor
>>> float_tensor *= uint_tensor
>>> float_tensor *= bool_tensor
>>> float_tensor *= double_tensor
>>> int_tensor *= long_tensor
>>> int_tensor *= uint_tensor
>>> uint_tensor *= int_tensor
>>> int_tensor *= float_tensor
>>> bool_tensor *= int_tensor
>>> bool_tensor *= uint_tensor
class torch.device
A torch.Tensor's device can be accessed via the Tensor.device property.
Via a string:
>>> torch.device('cuda:0')
device(type='cuda', index=0)
>>> torch.device('cpu')
Via a string and device ordinal:
>>> torch.device('cuda', 0)
device(type='cuda', index=0)
>>> torch.device('cpu', 0)
device(type='cpu', index=0)
>>> # You can substitute the torch.device with a string
For legacy reasons, a device can be constructed via a single device ordinal, which is treated as a cuda device. This matches Tensor.get_device(), which returns an ordinal for cuda tensors and is not supported for cpu tensors.
>>> torch.device(1)
device(type='cuda', index=1)
class torch.layout
A torch.layout is an object that represents the memory layout of a torch.Tensor. Currently, we support torch.strided (dense Tensors) and have experimental support for torch.sparse_coo (sparse COO Tensors).
>>> x.stride()
(5, 1)
>>> x.t().stride()
(1, 5)
For more information on torch.sparse_coo tensors, see torch.sparse.

This session introduces pupils to some of the amazing ancient wax seals in our collection. The aim of the workshop is to give pupils an understanding of how seals were made, how and why they were used, and what the images used on them mean.
For the first activity, we look at royal seals from the time of Edward the Confessor up to the present day. Pupils identify different elements of the designs and compare how they have changed and developed over the last thousand years. Pupils also have a close look at some of the seals belonging to Tudor kings and queens to see what particular impression each one tried to create about themselves on their seal.
For the second activity, we look at personal seals that belonged to barons, knights, ladies, craftsmen, religious houses and ordinary people in medieval and Tudor times. Pupils work out why each person chose the design they did for their seal, and discuss how this can help us understand people in the past. Finally, pupils get to try designing their own seal on paper using the knowledge and ideas they have gained during the workshop to create images that are appropriate to their life and interests.
This session can be delivered as a

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN) is an emerging field and growing body of work that bridges the gap between clinical nutrition and functional medicine.
FDN is a type of detective work that seeks to identify and correct the underlying causes and conditions that lead to health complaints.
FDN is a holistic discipline that employs functional laboratory assessments to identify malfunctions and underlying conditions at the root of most common health complaints.
FDN Practitioners embrace metabolic individuality and provide a step by step method that allows patients and clients to achieve repeatable, consistent and successful clinical outcomes.
FDN is not diagnosing or treating any disease nor practicing medicine.
FDN is a process that enables you to stop chasing symptoms and focus on healing opportunities instead.
FDN Practitioners interpret each lab test result on an individual basis and correlate with your conditions. The practitioner then communicates the test results and interprets the results to you in plain English making it easy to understand and follow the recommendations.

Help stop spread of the 'STD of the sea'
The Division of Wildlife Resources is encouraging all water enthusiasts to help prevent the spread of the 'STD of the Sea' by 'Practicing Safe Boating' on Utah's waters.
STD stands for skiff-transmitted disease — invasive mussels that spread by attaching to boats or getting into water that remains in boats after a day of boating or fishing.
"Invasive mussels are a serious threat to Utah's drinking water supply and the state's recreational waters," says DWR Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) Program Coordinator Jordan Nielson. "An infestation of invasive mussels can destroy fisheries, pollute shorelines and beaches, damage boats and equipment, and cost taxpayers millions of dollars to control."
Mussels have already infected Lake Powell. The help of every boater in Utah is needed to prevent them from spreading to other lakes and reservoirs in the state.
"The goal of the 'STD of the Sea' campaign is to help boaters understand how serious this issue is and how important it is that they properly decontaminate their boats and other watercraft," says DWR AIS Biologist Nate Owens. "If all boaters work together, our waters will remain clear of mussels. Once mussels infest a body of water, there isn't anything we can do to get them back out."
Drivers will start seeing more invasive mussels checkpoints around Utah, including at the state border, Bear Lake and Lake Powell. At these checkpoints, vehicles hauling boats must pull over so the watercraft can be inspected for mussels or standing water. If either is found, the driver can be cited. If necessary, the boat will be decontaminated with hot water.
The DWR is asking you to help prevent the spread of the 'STD of the Sea' by following this simple protocol:
1. Clean: Clean all plants and mud from each area of your boat, including your trailer, hull, bilge and other equipment.
2. Drain: Pull all plugs and fully drain all water from your boat, including live wells, ballast tanks, bladders and bilges.
3. Dry: Allow your boat to dry completely before you launch in other waters–7 days in summer; 18 days in spring or fall; and 30 days in winter (or freeze for 3 straight days).
Then, the next time the boat is used, the boater must fill out a certification form that verifies that the boat has been decontaminated. Failure to properly decontaminate a boat can result in a citation and fine.
Boaters can also have their watercraft professionally decontaminated, free of charge. To find a decontamination station, and to learn more about invasive mussels, visit STDoftheSea.com.

Sometimes, there is a kind of error or ambiguity in our documents that causes so many problems for other people. When this happens, they want to know that why it happened. In that situation, you must write an explanation letter telling the recipient about the situation.
What is a letter of explanation for address variation?
This letter is a brief explanation letter that is written when someone needs to explain anything pertaining to the error or variation in the financial or any kind of document. When a problem is found in a document, it often causes a pause in an underwriting. Due to this, a person is expected to explain the situation by writing a brief letter.
When to write this explanation letter?
There is no hard and fast rule as to when you should write this explanation letter. Whenever you find out that you have left a discrepancy in the financial document you submitted to the bank, you can write an explanation letter explaining the whole thing.
In general, institutes that find the error often contact the customer and asks him to write a letter of explanation. In this situation, this becomes a kind of compulsion for the customer to write the explanation letter.
Sometimes, what we call a discrepancy or error is not an error or problem but an intentional variation. This happens when a person has two addresses, and he is not sure as to which address, he should specify in the document. Even if the address variation is intentional, it is important to communicate it so that the reader can get rid of the confusion.
How to write the explanation letter to address the issue of address variation?
If you are in the need to write this letter and you don't know how to write it, you can follow the tips given below:
- Provide your basic details to make it easy for the recipient to identify you.
- This is formal that does not need you to give any irrelevant information. You can directly state the letter from the main thing you wanted to communicate.
- Mention the reason for having the variation in the address. Make sure that you write the reason in such a way that it makes sense and the recipient understands the whole problem.
- Even if the variation was intentional and not a mistake, you should apologize for not having it communicated earlier.
- At the end of the letter, you can ask the recipient to change the address at a certain place if the variation was not intentional.
- Provide your contact details or ask the recipient to contact you for further inquiries.
Name of the sender
Address of the sender
Subject: Letter of explanation for address variation
Dear Mr. XYZ,
I am an account holder in ABC bank with the account number (mention the account number with branch code). I have received a letter from the bank yesterday asking me to explain the address variation that has been pointed out in my statement. Therefore, I am writing the explanation letter in response to that letter.
This letter will explain the address variation that you have seen in my credit report:
- I have mentioned two different addresses on the document I submitted to the bank by mistake. Since I have moved to a new city, there are lots of documents where the change of address was required.
- I was intended to change the address at all the places wherever my old address was mentioned. However, there were some places where there was still a need to change it.
- I could not change the address at all the places and therefore, caused my details to look ambiguous.
I am really sorry to cause you this kind of inconvenience. I am hereby clearly mentioning here that my address in Boston was a real address that I want the bank to consider for any kind of correspondence in the future. I hope that you have understood the entire situation and find no problem in bringing modifications to the letter. In case you have anything to ask, you can contact me.

Benefits of Ductility in TMT Iron Rods
Thermo-Mechanically-Treated (TMT) iron rods are known for their high yield strength and ductility which make them highly preferable and the most common building materials suitable for all kinds of construction. Ductility is as important as strength in TMT iron rods because of its impact in holding structures firm during earthquakes.
What Makes TMT Iron Rod Ductile
The ductility of TMT iron rods means that it can bend up to its maximum tensile strength without being brittle or losing its strength. It is the ability of the iron rod to easily deform and adapt as it is put under stress with tensile load within a construction unit. It is also known as the ability of the iron rod to be elongated. The ductility of TMT iron rod is therefore made possible through its elongation.
Ductility is formed in TMT iron rod as a result of the annealing process, in which the soft inner core cools under atmospheric temperature. This results in the formation of a ferrite-pearlite core that provides the ductility.
Importance of Ductility in TMT Iron Rods
- Aesthetic design
- Ability to withstand earthquake/shock wave
Ductility improves the overall safety of the structure after exceeding the permissible load values. Construction projects are designed with the expected load in mind. In the process of construction, the structure, a bridge for example, can carry extra load if the concrete is reinforced with TMT iron rod because of its ductility.
Ductility gives TMT iron rod easy and higher bendability. This ensures that it can be bent and shaped as one desires without breaking or cracking and can be used for various construction purposes. The bendability also ensures protection from natural disasters such as earthquake.
The ductility of TMT iron rod results in greater pliability which allows for aesthetic designing of a structure. As a result of its easy bendability, which enables it to be shaped according to one's need and structural specifications, TMT iron rod makes aesthetic design possible and easy while still ensuring the safety of the structure.
Any TMT iron rod with perfect ductility gives high level of flexibility to buildings and structures. This helps the building to maintain its structure during earthquake and other natural disasters.
Ductility gives TMT iron rod ability to stop any sudden failure caused by extra load. It also makes the iron rod take in tension force and withstand stronger shock waves. This gives the structure a longer lifespan and enables it to serve its purpose for many years. It also guides against the need for constant renovation and repairs caused by damage and collapse.

Make the Right Choice
Build with TIGER TMT iron rod, the best and most preferred TMT brand. TIGER TMT iron rod goes through the most advanced and fully-automated quenching process that makes the inner part softer and the outer part harder. This gives it perfect ductility without losing its toughness.
TIGER TMT also has great bending properties and is easily shaped without cracking or breaking. This quality makes TIGER TMT resistant to earthquake and other natural disasters.
By resisting earthquake, TIGER TMT gives buildings and structure durability, longevity and ensures that they are long-lasting.

The approach taken to evaluate performance for DOAC assays complies with specifications detailed in ISO 13528 Statistical Methods for use in proficiency testing by interlaboratory comparisons and is as follows:
The consensus median is taken as the central reference point or "target value".
A z score is calculated using the following formula:
[result – mean] / SD
The mean is a "robust" mean value, with outliers excluded; the SD is a "robust" SD determined after exclusion of outliers.
A result identical to the mean will give a Z score of 0. ISO13528 defines Z score above 3 or below -3 as an "action signal". A Z score above 2 and below 3 (or below -2 and above -3) is a "warning signal". It is suggested in this ISO guide that one action signal, or two successive warning signals require investigation.
Assessment is against overall medians, for each DOAC, when n =>10. If the DOAC assay is performed by 10 but <20 centres, performance is assessed but centres should note that z-scores can be unreliable with small numbers of samples (n<20) as in this case. If <10 centres return results for an assay, performance will not be assessed.

Pittsburgh, Pa. – April 19, 2017 – The Western Pennsylvania Conservancy (WPC) announced today the protection and addition of 18 acres of land in Sadsbury Township, Crawford County to one of the most ecologically important forested areas in the region.
These acres along Grieser Road are now part of the Conservancy's Tryon-Weber Woods Natural Area, which is a remote 108-acre reserve that is open to the public for nature watching, exploring and hunting. Students from the University of Pittsburgh's Pymatuning Laboratory of Ecology have been using the natural area for years for a variety of research projects, including learning about the effects of deer browsing on forest health.
"We are pleased to be able to add property to this protected forest reserve. It has impressive stands of mature beech-sugar maple forest and is a wonderful place for visiting and hiking," said Tom Saunders, president and CEO of the Conservancy.
Protected in May 1976, the natural area consists primarily of upland forest and a small stream valley with hillsides flecked with trillium, violets, bellwort and wild geranium in spring. A tributary to the stream enters from the east and along the southern border where there is an area of forested wetlands, including vernal pools that provide temporary habitat for some unique plants and animals.
The area also contains a 40-acre stand of old-growth American beech-sugar maple forest, thought to be the last remaining mature stand of beech-sugar maple in Western Pennsylvania and the easternmost stand in the national range. Accordingly, these woods were recently incorporated into the national Old-Growth Forest Network, which recognizes the locations of and organizations from across the country that protect these special forest types. Some of the trees in this forest are around 100 feet tall and at least 90 to 120 years old. Visiting this area to see these large and magnificent trees is worthwhile, as indicated in the book "Great Natural Areas in Western Pennsylvania" by Stephen J. Ostrander. Please be advised that there is limited parking and signage, and no designated trails.
Funds from the estate of Helen B. Katz were used to purchase this property. In 2008, the Conservancy received her bequest that remains the largest contribution to date from an individual to WPC. Her generous legacy gift has allowed the Conservancy to permanently protect more than 5,000 acres of natural land.

Julie is a poet from Ardwick, Manchester who uses poetry to make sense of what she is thinking. She writes sporadically in her poetry book.
We asked Julie to answer a few questions about writing poetry
Can you talk about what inspired you to write this poem?
This poem was written in the 70s, it was inspired by the TV programme Roots. You didn't get much about the slave trade on British television and not in a way that put the white people in the wrong.
This poem is not just about black and white, it's about all forms of slavery. In the days of slavery, in Britain all the people in the cotton mills, and those working in other people's houses were paid a pittance. I am not saying that they were slaves but they did not have free choice.

What Do People Ask Online About Pole Dancing?
What do People Ask Online About Pole Dancing?
Remember that time you witnessed pole dancing for the first time and your jaw dropped?
Learning a new hobby appealed to you. You watched a few online videos and pictured yourself spinning on a pole. Maybe you planned to perform for your special someone.
And then someone close to you said something untoward, and you hesitated. Did you enroll in your first trial class? Or were you held back by fears?
Well, you're not alone! We've curated top questions asked on Reddit, Quora, and Twitter. Results suggest that first-time polers are afraid of how hard it can be or of negative judgment.
Read on to satiate your curiosity and overcome your objections:
How hard is pole dancing?
Quora How Hard is Pole Dancing?
Anyone can pole dance. There aren't pre-requisites to get started, like a former dance background, or developed a group of muscles from years at the gym or specific skill sets at a height like rock climbing. Pole dance isn't an activity that discriminates based on what body type you have, or what your physical training has been.
However, pole dancing requires consistent hard work to make progress at. If you have access to a good studio and teachers that's already half the battle won. You must practice at least three to four times a week to build core strength you need to execute aerial tricks, suspend upside-down on the pole and hold your poses through minutes-long routines. The good news is, practice pays off.
You also must work on your flexibility. Classes start with 20 minutes of warm-ups and stretch so you don't get injured. They design pole moves and routines so that everything you learn is cumulative; once you master the basics, in just two to three terms you could execute complicated aerial stunts in the air, upside down, and with showmanship!
Will people judge you for learning to pole dance?
Teacher Suspended Pole Dancing
I learned pole in a private women-only studio with black-out curtains and a very discrete instructor, so I wasn't afraid of prying eyes or judgment. My family and friends told me over and over not to tell anyone else, but with time I lost a lot of fear around this.
People will always a judge, and they will judge you out of context. Especially if they never liked you in the first place, or if they're dissatisfied with their own lives.
I'd be wary of radio-announcing your newfound hobby around the workplace, or communities involving young kids or parents of young kids. As with nudity, so with pole dancing. You want to give them an option to not see you strutting your stuff if it's offensive to them. If they're not ready for it yet, it's their loss, it doesn't have to affect your ability to practice it within your own space.
Instead of negative judgment, I've only ever encountered praise and awe from both men and women. They're impressed by the feats I accomplish on the pole, they compare it to gymnastics and exclaim 'wow, you must have core strength!' or 'how do you do that with your body? You're so flexible!' Mostly I get positive feedback on how brave I must be to do this whenever I perform.
Pole dancing has become my prime passion, my body an instrument to spread body positivity to other women. That's so important, this year has seen a lot of debate around social media causing negative body image issues. How can I possibly keep such a thing quiet when I believe in healthy body perspectives?
Bruises – does it get better?
The answer is, yes! This too, shall pass. Everyone who starts a beginner class in pole complains about bruises. The first time you come home from a class looking bruised like a banana, you worry that your family may think you have an abusive boyfriend! The truth is, antibruise creams don't work as advertised.
Getting back on the pole, and practicing often, does. Bruising happens, in my opinion, in the early stages when you're too reliant on the touch points between your limbs or your joints and the pole to keep you aloft. Once you develop proper techniques and learn to engage your whole-body strength, you shouldn't bruise so easily.
Warm up in thick volleyball kneepads to protect your knees. You can use these during exotic pole, too. Wear more coverage, like yoga pants and long-sleeved shirts, when you practice floor work (for those pesky shoulder rolls, shoulder stands, and legwork on your back).
Is pole dancing a sport?
Pole dancing can be a sport. I know there are those trying to get it accepted by the relevant committees to make it an Olympic sport. But I see it more as an art form. I don't think it has to be a sport to be touted as something 'acceptable' or 'mainstream' that many people can do for either fitness or as a hobby.
It's such a close-ended question to ask. Like asking, 'is ballet a sport'? The idea of making it seem like a sport instead of a dance or art form makes it sound so competitive. Like we need to have X medals in pole dance competition or Y qualifying rounds of elimination to determine who is fit to pole dance and who is not. Like there are certain 'organizations' who have to govern over it and put it on a billboard or provide a place for it in a stadium for us to accept it.
I much prefer a pole dance community that is open and not judged. Where we get to wear our sexy high heels and star-studded bikinis and celebrate one another's showmanship, grace, lines, techniques, and styles. Pole dancing is beautiful when we come at it from a place of acceptance — of everyone's diversity in expressing themselves through this art form.
Now we've answered your burning questions, come join PoleCon 2019 and get pole dancing!

Why: The goal of the event is to commemorate the AU Day of African Sport. This day recognises the role that African sport plays in communities and in people's lives. Sport can cross boundaries, defy stereotypes and inspire hope across nations. The event will bring together adolescents and young people to celebrate the day as well as demonstrate through football activity, the importance of sport/physical activity in their lives. The event will bring together boys and girls to compete in a 7-aside football tournament.
During the tournament, all the COVID-19 guidelines as prescribed by the Government of the Republic of Zambia, through the Ministry of Health will be adhered to.
Objective: This type of community tournament and health event utilizes soccer as a platform to:
- Provide linkage to services and mobilize communities and key stakeholders to challenge social norms that traditionally exclude adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) from sport;
- Mobilise communities around Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) and to provide key services (HIV Testing and STI screening, etc.) in non-clinical settings, such as high-volume soccer tournaments that double as community health events.
- These unique events are used to sensitize community members on SRHR and facilitate access to services in non-traditional, community-based settings, reaching individuals that may not typically seek care at health facilities.

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

Federal Trade Commission: A History
Our History at 600 Pennsylvania Ave, NW
The FTC established its headquarters at 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., with President Franklin D. Roosevelt laying the cornerstone himself.
Roosevelt remarked, "May this permanent home of the Federal Trade Commission stand for all time as a symbol of the purpose of the government to insist on a greater application of the golden rule to conduct the corporation and business enterprises in their relationship to the body politic." Listen to FDR's speech here.
The building which is particularly known for its two art deco style statues, called " Man Restraining Trade," is located at the apex of the Federal Triangle, and was the culmination of the massive Depression-era government building project. Commissioners and staff officially moved in on April 21, 1938, and the building continues to function as the FTC's headquarters, serving the agency's adjudicative, executive, policy, and administrative functions.
The Bureau of Corporations at 100
Under legislation sought by President Theodore Roosevelt, the FTC's predecessor, the Bureau of Corporations, was created on February 14, 1903.
To commemorate the 100th anniversary of that event, the Bureau of Economics held a roundtable on September 4, 2003. The focus of the roundtable was the contributions of economics and of the Bureau of Economics to the Commission's mission and to economic policy generally over the past several decades. The Bureau of Economics was featured because the original functions of the Bureau of Corporations were to collect information, to conduct industry and policy research, and to prepare reports at the request of Congress and the President. Participants in the roundtable included FTC Chairman Timothy J. Muris, former FTC Chairman and OMB Director James C. Miller III, and BE Directors from the 1950s to the present. More information about the roundtable, including a transcript, is available.

William Bligh (September 9, 1754 - December 7, 1817) was an officer of the British Royal Navy and colonial administrator. He is best known for the famous mutiny that occurred against his command aboard HMAV Bounty. After the Bounty mutiny he became Governor of New South Wales, where his stern administration engendered another insurrection, the Rum Rebellion led by John Macarthur.
Bligh was born in Plymouth, a seaport in south-west England, and went to sea at the age of eight. In 1776, he was selected by Captain James Cook for the crew of the Resolution and, in 1787, selected as commander of the HMAV Bounty. He would eventually rise to the rank of Vice Admiral in the British Navy.
William Bligh's naval career consisted of a variety of appointments and assignments. A summary is as follows:
- July 1, 1762: Ship's Boy and Captain's Servant, HMS Monmouth
- July 27, 1770: Able Seaman, HMS Hunter
- February 5 1771: Midshipman, HMS Hunter
- September 22, 1771: Midshipman, HMS Crescent
- September 2, 1774: Able Seaman, HMS Ranger
- September 30, 1775: Master's Mate, HMS Ranger

The voyage of the Bounty
In 1787, Bligh took command of the Bounty. He first sailed to Tahiti to obtain breadfruit trees, then set course for the Caribbean, where the breadfruit were wanted for experiments to see if breadfruit would be a successful food crop there. The Bounty never reached the Caribbean, as mutiny broke out onboard shortly after leaving Tahiti. In later years, Bligh would repeat the same voyage that the Bounty had undertaken and would eventually succeed in delivering the breadfruit to the West Indies. Bligh's mission may have introduced the akee to the Caribbean as well, though this is uncertain. (Akee is now called Blighia sapida in binomial nomenclature after Bligh).
The mutiny, which broke out during the return voyage, was led by Master's Mate Fletcher Christian and supported by a quarter of the crew. The mutineers provided Bligh and the eighteen of his crew who remained loyal with a 23 foot (7 m) launch, provisions sufficient to reach the most accessible ports, a sextant and a pocket watch, but no charts or compass. Bligh disdained the obvious course of action, which would have been sailing for nearer Spanish ports where they would be repatriated to Britain after delays. Bligh was confident in his navigational skills and considering his first responsibility to be getting word of the mutiny as soon as possible to British vessels that could pursue the mutineers, so he embarked instead on a 3618 nautical mile (6701 km) voyage to Timor. In the successful 41 day voyage, the only casualty was one crewman killed by hostile natives.
To this day, the reasons for the mutiny are a subject of considerable debate. Some feel that Bligh was a cruel tyrant whose abuse of the crew led members of the crew to feel that they had no choice but to take the ship from Bligh. Others feel that the crew, after having been exposed to freedom and sexual excess on the island of Tahiti refused to return to the "Jack Tars" existence of a seaman. They hold that the crew took the ship from Bligh so that they could return to a life of comfort and pleasure on Tahiti.
After the Bounty
Bligh was buried in a family plot at Lambeth. This church is now the Museum of Garden History. His gravestone is topped by a breadfruit. Bligh's house is marked by a plaque a block east of the Museum.
