:puppetmaster::standalone::upload_facts: true to the hieradata of the project puppetmaster to enable uploads. then yuo can run the commands at the beginning of this section to upload the first batch of data
Purging nodes
There are a few different things involved to completely purge a node from PCC and it depends a bit on which host variable override you use. the main things at play are:
 1. puppetdb used by compiler-update-facts:
 - the compiler-update-facts script uses the puppetdb API to export a list of active nodes, a node is considered active if it has submitted a report to puppetdb in the last 14 days (this is the production value at least)
 2. when you last ran compiler-update-facts
 - compiler-update-facts exports the node data from puppetdb then rsync's it using --delete to /var/lib/catalog-differ/puppet/yaml/ this purging any old nodes
 3. The puppetdb used by the compiler
 - the puppet compiler also has a puppetdb instance which expires nodes after 7 days of inactivity, however there are cron jobs to make sure this is fresh which run every nigh. i.e. unless manually purged nodes won't get removed from here until 7 days after step 2
Depending on the host variable override you use affects which of theses constraints you will hit.
 - if using an empty Hosts list then PCC calculates the hosts from the site.pp file so it shouldn't have any issues with old nodes (as long as they have been removed from site.pp). however you may need to run compiler-update-facts for new hosts
 - If providing a an explicit list of hosts then again none of this matters but you may need to run compiler-update-facts for new hosts
 - if using the re: selector then PCC scans /var/lib/catalog-differ/puppet/yaml/ looking for hosts matching the regex as such the actions up to step 2 would be required to purge the node
 - if using any of the other selectors then PCC queries puppetdb for matching hosts as such you need to complete all steps to purge the node
Catalog compiler for CloudVPS
The standard Jenkins-hosted catalog compiler can now target VPS instances. Because VMs are frequently created and deleted, it may be necessary to update the facts from whatever puppetmaster is hosting the VM in question. Instructions for doing that can be found at Nova Resource:Puppet-diffs.
The hostname to use for the VM is whatever the puppetmaster thinks a host is called, which is usually the output of hostname -f.
Catalog compiler local run (pcc utility)
There is a also a tool called pcc under the operations/puppet/utils repo. You'll need your Jenkins API token to make it work-- retrievable under _URL_
Example:
$ ./utils/pcc GERRIT_CHANGE_NUMBER LIST_OF_NODES --username YOUR_USERNAME --api-token 12312312312312313
$ ./utils/pcc 282936 oxygen.eqiad.wmnet --username batman --api-token 12312312312312313
--username and --api-token can be omitted if JENKINS_USERNAME and JENKINS_API_TOKEN are set in the current environment.
Troubleshooting
Some common errors and mistakes.
 - Catalog for Cloud VPS instances doesn't get any classes/roles.
This happens because $::realm is not set to labs. There are patches in place to fix this, but the puppet-compiler software needs to be released with these patches.
 - ERROR: Unable to find facts for host tools-services-01.tools.eqiad1.wikimedia.cloud, skipping
If running locally, collect facts by hand from the corresponding puppetmaster. If running in the Jenkins web service for a production host, follow these instructions.
Limitations
The puppet-compiler mechanism won't discover all the issues in the resulting catalog. If the catalog was compiled OK by Jenkins, you may still find some issues when running the puppet agent.
Some known limitations:
 - Files sources. When declaring a File { '/my/file':, the path information you specified in the content parameter will be resolved at puppet agent runtime.
 - Private Hiera lookups. The way Hiera fetches data may vary between how it's done in the puppet-compiler process to how it's done in the final puppet master. Specifically, secrets in the private repo.
 - Hiera behavior. Currently, we don't have a way to know in concrete how Hiera is behaving when compiling the catalog. See Phabricator ticket T215507 for more information.

Actually, working in Dreamweaver is what gave me the inspiration to write the "Count Your Words" article because I wanted to do a word count while working on an HTML document, but couldn't. So, today I'll explain a bit about Dreamweaver's configuration mechanism, how commands work, and how to implement and incorporate your own word count function. Then you'll be able to count the number of words you've selected or those from the complete document.
To follow the examples, you'll need either Dreamweaver or Dreamweaver Ultradev version 3 or later. Since all configuration files are simple plain text, you can just use Dreamweaver to make the necessary changes. You can download a free 30-day trial version at Macromedia's Dreamweaver download page.
Dreamweaver_Home/Configuration/Commands/ and are selectable via the Commands menu.
So, let's see what happens internally when you invoke a command by selecting it in the Commands menu?
When you select and open the Commands menu, Dreamweaver reads all the command files that are defined for this menu. The menu and its items are defined in a separate configuration file,
menu.xml, which is explained in greater detail in the next section.
To determine if a command is suitable for a document or its selection, the function
canAcceptComand() is called, and it returns either true or false. In case of the latter, the menu item is grayed out. If you want your command to be always selectable, just leave this function.
To receive arguments, the function
receiveArguments() is called. This function receives its arguments either from the attribute property of the selected menu item or from
dreamweaver.runCommand(), which is the calling function.
To create the buttons on the right of the dialogue, the function
commandButtons() is called in the next step. Here you can create a array of button text and action strings, which must be returned from this function. To make l10n easier, you can use one the symbolic variables defined in
Dreamweaver_Home/Configuration/Shared/MM/Scripts/CMN/localtext.js. You can leave this function if your own command doesn't depend on arguments.
In order to become displayed, the HTML document must contain a
form element. If it has one, the function
windowDimension() is called, which is expected to return a string containing a comma delimited width and height pair. If this function can't be found, the size of the dialogue is determined by the document's content.
In the last step, the functions defined in the document's body
onload event handler are called, just as in any other HTML document. Now the command is prepared and ready to work. After completing its task, it's closed by a simple
We created an example file for you containing the needed skeleton with all functions of the Commands-API.
Now, let's see how a command is integrated into one of Dreamweaver's menus.
DreamWeaver 4: The Missing Manual
Earlier versions of Dreamweaver stored its menu structure in a set of HTML documents. Beginning in version 3, the complete menu structure is stored in one XML file,
Dreamweaver_Home/Configuration/Menus/menu.xml. This file defines menubars and shortcut lists that are associated to the different Dreamweaver windows by their ID. For instance, the shortcut list and menubar of the main document window are identified by
So, open this file and search for a
menubar element with ID
DWMainWindow, this menubar holds all menus displayed in sequential order like
Edit, etc. in
menu elements. The name attribute of a menu element defines the name displayed. Adding an underscore in front of a letter causes this item be become selectable with the keyboard when selecting the menu via the "Alt" key.
Inside each menu you can find two different types of elements, either a
menuseparator element. Since menu.xml pretends to be an XML document (which it's not, as it lacks a document element), you have to take care to close those elements properly when you create new ones, i.e. use a slash before the closing bracket to create a well-formed element.
Creating a new entry for our command is a very straight-forward task. Use the Commands menu for this task. Search for the menu with ID
DWMenu_Commands. You're free to create a new
menuitem like the one below wherever you want inside the menu element:
key attribute creates a hotkey combination for the item. The
enabled attribute value to
false causes this menu item be become grayed out and unselectable. The
checked attribute can be used to add a checkmark in front of the item with an attribute value of
Make sure you create a well-formed document, and when you're finished, just save the file. In case you messed up
menu.xml, you can find a default version in the same menu,
menu.bak, which just needs to be saved over your edited file to restore the default behavior.
Dreamweaver_Home/Configuration/Commands/ folder as
In order to have Dreamweaver reload its configuration, you can restart the application. Much easier is the following trick.
Fortunately you don't have to restart Dreamweaver every time you change something in your configs. Simply open the objects palette (Ctrl-F2), and click the small triangle on the upper right while holding the Ctrl key (see Figure 1).
You'll find a new menu item at the bottom,
Reload Extensions. Selecting it causes Dreamweaver to read the configuration files again, and recreate all configurable items like objects, menus, commands, etc.
To work with the new command, just select it via the Commands menu, or use the hotkeys if they are available. To count all of the words, don't select any text and you'll get a count for the entire document. Otherwise, make a selection and call the command for a count of a specific area.

Sheriff / Adult Detention
It is important that as many individuals as possible understand what Community Policing is and how it can benefit the citizens of Frederick County and the members of the Frederick County Sheriff's Office.
Community Policing requires a law enforcement agency-wide philosophical commitment to involve citizens as partners in the process of reducing and controlling the problems of crime and fear of crime, drugs and neighborhood decay. Community Policing, when properly implemented, results in the improvement of the overall quality of life in the community.
What Is Community Policing?
Community Policing is a philosophy. It is a partnership between law enforcement and the community working together to identify crime related problems, determining their root causes and then applying solutions which will permanently reduce or eliminate these problems.
When members of a community and law enforcement work together to improve the quality of life in that community, the benefits of Community Policing are realized. Law Enforcement benefits by ending a recurring problem. The citizens benefit from the improvement in their quality of life. Those police officers and community members who participated in the solution receive the self-satisfaction which results from having addressed a problem and then arriving at a workable solution.
10 Principles of Community Policing
1. Community Policing is a community-based philosophy. The direction for law enforcement efforts comes more from listening to the citizens of the community about what concerns them than from law enforcement assumptions about what the community wants.
2. Community Policing focuses on creative problem-solving. All persons involved are encouraged to look at the bigger picture to solve pattern or chronic problems.
3. Community Policing promotes the development of trust. It emphasizes a direct working relationship between citizens and the police to develop the ownership of problems.
4. Community Policing establishes a broader role for each law enforcement member. Each member serves as a liaison with the community and assists its citizens in solving community problems.
5. Community Policing stresses community involvement and emphasizes citizen participation in the problem-solving process. This means that the community must accept its responsibility to actively participate in problem-solving. Community Policing acknowledges that the police cannot be successful without citizen assistance.
6. Community Policing is proactive, not reactive. Community Policing anticipates problems and prevents them from occurring or continuing.
7. Community Policing emphasizes providing help where it is needed most. Community Policing especially provides for closer contact with juveniles and the elderly as a means of better understanding their needs.
8. Community Policing enhances traditional policing through interaction with the community. Law enforcement will continue to respond to emergencies and perform in traditional capacities. They will also explore a wide range of responses to community problems and ask for citizen assistance as part of the problem-solving process.
9. Community Policing involves everyone within a law enforcement agency. Successful Community Policing is not limited to the patrol section; it is a change in the policing philosophy of the entire agency.
10. Community Policing personalizes law enforcement service. Law enforcement members work directly with the citizens they serve to identify and prioritize problems, and to devise and implement problem-solving strategies.
What does Community Policing Mean to Me?
Since 1978, serious questions have been raised about whether conventional law enforcement strategies provide effective protection. Traditionally, the assumption has been that criminal, as well as disorderly activity, would be deterred if law enforcement were visible presence on the streets and promptly arrested people who broke the law. Community Policing doesn't question the goal of policing - just the means.
Consider that the type of crime that terrifies Americans most (muggings, rape, robbery, burglary and homicide) is rarely encountered by law enforcement on patrol. Crimes are seldom solved through criminal investigations alone. Crimes are usually solved because the perpetrator is immediately known or because a suspect is identified through information (description, tag number, etc.) provided by the citizens.
How do I become involved?
Citizen Involvement is a must if Community Policing is to be successful
To become involved with improving the quality of life in your neighborhood, contact the Frederick County Sheriff's Office or your local police. In an emergency, call 911 for law enforcement. To report suspicious activity in your community, or any other non-emergency situation, dial _PHONE_. For more information about how Community Policing can make a difference in your community, call the Frederick County Sheriff's Office at _PHONE_ and ask to speak with the Community Policing supervisor. Working together, we CAN and WILL improve the quality of life in Frederick County.

In the article SAP HANA Modeling Introduction
and SAP HANA Calculation View
we explained the basics of SAP HANA data modeling. We also learnt how to create modeling views in Build Your First SAP HANA Model in 10 Minutes
In this article we will explain what is Analytic privilege in HANA and how does it work.
What is Analytic Privileges?
Analytic privileges control access to SAP HANA data models.
Analytic privileges are used to grant different users access to different portions of data in the same view
depending on their business role.
It allows us to maintain row-level access
Why do we need Analytic Privilege?
SQL privileges implement authorization at object level only. Users either have access to an object, such as a table, view or procedure, or they do not.
While this is often sufficient, there are cases when access to data in an object depends on certain values or combinations of values. Analytic privileges are used in the SAP HANA database to provide such fine-grained control of which data individual users can see within the same view.
Suppose there is a calculation view which contains the sales data of all the regions like Asia, Europe and America.
The regional managers must have access to the calculation view to see the data. However, managers should only see the data for their region. The manager of America region should not be able to see data of other region.
In this case, an analytic privilege could be modeled so that they can all query the view, but only the data that each user is authorized to see is returned.
Important Facts about Analytic Privileges:
- Analytic privileges are intended to control read-only access to SAP HANA information models, that is
- Attribute views
- Analytic views
- Calculation views
- Analytic privileges do not apply to database tables or views modeled on row-store tables.
Create and Manage Analytic Privilege.
Here is the sequence of steps to achieve this
- Create Analytic Privilege and assign restriction for region "Asia".
- Assign the Analytic Privilege to User to restrict the data on HANA Views.
SAP HANA System Privileges Required to Create/Manage Analytic Privilege:
To create analytic privileges, the system privilege CREATE STRUCTURED PRIVILEGE is required.
To drop analytic privileges, the system privilege STRUCTUREDPRIVILEGE ADMIN is required.
In the SAP HANA modeler, repository objects are technically created by the technical user _SYS_REPO, which by default has the system privileges for both creating and dropping analytic privileges.
The database user requires the package privileges REPO.EDIT_NATIVE_OBJECTS and REPO.ACTIVATE_NATIVE_OBJECTS to activate and redeploy analytic privileges in the Modeler.
Steps to Create an Analytic Privilege:
We need to create the modeling view first which will be used in the Analytic Privilege.
Create a calculation view by following the article Create a calculation view in 10 minutes.
The output of the calculation view is
Let us see how we can restrict the output only for "Asia" region.
Right click on the package and select "Analytic Privilege"
Specify Name and label for the Analytic Privilege
Select the calculation view and click on Add button. Then click on "Finish".
Click on Add button as shown below and select the column REGION_NAME.
Now we need to assign the restriction. Click on the add button as shown below and select the value "Asia".
Save and activate the analytic privilege.
The analytic privilege is ready. Now we can assign this analytic privilege to any user.
Assign Analytic Privilege to a User:
: You must have authorization to create/assign privileges to a user.
Go to Security -> Users. Right click and create a new user. Specify user name and password.
Click on the "Analytic Privileges" tab and add the analytic privilege created in previous step.
You also need to assign following privileges required to get access to modeling views.
- Execute & Select access on _SYS_BI
- Execute & Select access on _SYS_BIC
- Execute on REPOSITORY_REST
Done!! We have created an analytic privilege and assign that to a user.
Now add the same HANA system using new user. Open the data preview of the same calculation view. It will show only the data for region "Asia".

 How do I record a broken fibre?
 Samantha Brunnen
 Hi,

 We are have come across a broken fibre in our network and need to record it for future, so we don't use it again. We thought we could assign a circuit to the fibre and call it Broken1 so that we could see it was unavailable, but we found that because the fibre wasn't spliced to anything and wouldn't trace anywhere we couldn't assign a circuit to it. Does anyone have any ideas on how to record broken fibres in a way that is obvious? I don't want to accidentally use the fibres if they are broken.
 - Re: How do I record a broken fibre?
 Hi Samantha Brunnen

 Do you currently have a field that tracks availability (available and unavailable)? One idea is to add a third value called "Broken."

 1. In your database properties, find the domain that has the available and unavailable coded values. Add a third value called Broken. In my case, the domain is called Fiber Availability Indicator.
 001.jpg

 2. In order to see the Available field in Connection Manager, it needs the Field Model Name FIBERCONNECTIONDISPLAYFIELD. Find your F_Fiber table in ArcCatalog, and using the ArcFM Properties assign that Field Model Name to the Available field.
 003.jpg

 3. In the map, start editing. Select the cable that contains the broken fiber. Then, in the ArcFM Attribute Editor, find the specific fiber and change its field value to Broken. In my case, the Blue-Orange fiber is broken. Make sure you press the Update button in the Attribute Editor to lock in your edits.
 004.jpg

 4. Because you made the Available field visible (step #2 above), you will see this value in Connection Manager.
 005.jpg

 Does that help?
 - Re: How do I record a broken fibre?
 Tim Szekely
 Hi Samantha,

 Another option, if you've implemented the default data model many of our clients do you may already have a "status" field for each fiber object. Typical options assigned to the field's domain are "lit", "dark", and "defective". I think this field is meant to be used in conjunction with the "Availability" field that Andrew mentioned, so you'd set the strand's availability to "Unavailable" (this action will update the availability count for the parent cable feature) and then specify the strand's status as "defective".

Penetration of Photovoltaics in Greece
Eugenia Giannini, Antonia Moropoulou, Zacharias Maroulis, Glykeria Siouti
2015 Energies
Recently, an interesting experiment was completed in Greece concerning photovoltaic penetration into the electricity production sector. Based on the relevant laws and in accordance to the related European directives, an explosive penetration process was completed in less than three years, resulting in a 7% share of photovoltaics in electricity production instead of the previous negligible share. The legislation was based on licensing simplification and generous feed-in-tariffs. This approach
more »... s. This approach transformed photovoltaic technology from a prohibitively expensive to a competitive one. This work aims to summarize the relevant legislation and illustrate its effect on the resulting penetration. A sigmoid-shape penetration was observed which was explained by a pulse-type driving force. The return on investment indicator was proposed as an appropriate driving force, which incorporates feed-in-tariffs and turnkey-cost. Furthermore, the resulting surcharge on the electricity price due to photovoltaic penetration was also analyzed.

 This letter to Gentleman Du was written by Cai Xiang in a period of mourning for the loss of his eldest son (1055), but for the most part Cai still maintains his poise of vigor and beauty in calligraphy. Nonetheless, a few strokes of the brush still reveal fluctuations of emotion that transmit the pain that he must have felt as he was writing. The brushwork here is rounded and solid, while also flowing and wandering, thus revealing Cai Xiang's complete success in traditional calligraphic studies. In the flowing grace of the brush movement in the few characters, the forms and structure are enchanting, while the generous spacing of the character structure and the hook method here conform to that of Yan Zhenqing (顏真卿, 709–785).

Snowy River increased flows
In determining how to use the environmental water recovered for the Snowy River through the Snowy Water Initiative, the New South Wales, Victorian and Commonwealth governments jointly agreed that ecological objectives would be achieved by storing and then releasing sufficient volumes to provide annual flushing flows. These high flows facilitate the improvement in the physical condition of the in-stream habitat by scouring and transporting fine sediment (i.e. primarily, sand, silt and clay). Meeting ecological objectives was identified as a high priority during the Snowy Water Inquiry. High flows are important to improve river health. It is expected that as the river physically responds over time to the higher flows, the focus of the recovery process will transition to meet other ecological objectives.
2022–2023 Water year
A total of 202,300 megalitres of environmental water will be released to the Snowy River below Jindabyne Dam during the 2022–23 water year under nine separate high-flow events across 14 days.
The daily flow for each of these events will be above 2,000 megalitres per day between 31 May and 9 December 2022. This will include five eight-hour peaks below 5,000 megalitres per day.
|Tuesday 31 May 2022||Daily peak flow of 2,061 megalitres per day (ML/d), with equivalent peak flow 3,715 ML/d for eight hours|
|Thursday 14 July 2022||Daily peak flow of 3,004 ML/d, with equivalent peak flow 4,504 ML/d for eight hours|
|Monday 5 September 2022||Daily peak flow of 3,179 ML/d, with equivalent peak flow 4,979 ML/d for eight hours|
|Tuesday 6 September 2022||Daily peak flow of 2,090 ML/d over 24 hours|
|Wednesday 7 September 2022||Daily peak flow of 2,678 ML/d over 24 hours|
|Tuesday 11 October 2022||Daily peak flow of 3,059 ML/d over 24 hours|
|Wednesday 12 October 2022||Daily peak flow of 4,339 ML/d, with equivalent peak flow 5,000 ML/d for eight hours (Largest flow)|
|Thursday 13 October 2022||Daily peak flow of 2,925 ML/d over 24 hours|
|Friday 14 October 2022||Daily peak flow of 2,248 ML/d over 24 hours|
|Monday 24 October 2022||Daily peak flow of 2,143 ML/d over 24 hours|
|Monday 31 October 2022||Daily peak flow of 3,910 ML/d over 24 hours|
|Monday 14 November 2022||Daily peak flow of 2,384 ML/d, with equivalent peak flow 4,189 ML/d for eight hours|
|Thursday 1 December 2022||Daily peak flow of 2,832 ML/d over 24 hours|
|Friday 9 December 2022||Daily peak flow of 3,705 ML/d over 24 hours|
Note: The peak flow releases will occur during daytime hours from 8am to 4pm Australian Eastern Standard Time. The release date for these flow peaks could change as they are weather-dependent.
The releases to the Snowy River will be above 2,000 megalitres per day for 14 days across the nine high-flow events. In September and October there are multiple day high-flow events that will have flows larger than 2,000 megalitres per day to maximise the ecological benefits for the river.
Although there is no flushing flow in the current 2022 schedule, this will be reviewed dependant on climatic conditions.
The department will issue 'rising river alerts' to relevant media organisations several days prior to each of the nine high-flow events.

Gobetwino is listening on the serial port, for "commands coming from Arduino, and in response it will do something for Arduino and possibly return something to Arduino.
Gobetwino defines a set of command types that can be used as templates to create actual commands. Arduino can ask Gobetwino to execute these commands, and return something to Arduino.
So what can Gobetwino do? Using the defined command types you can create commands in Gobetwino that Arduino can ask Gobetwino to execute. These commands
With combinations of these commands you can do things like:
 - Start any program on your PC, either directly or via an associated file type.
 - Start Excel, send data from Arduino directly into the Excel sheet, save the sheet and email it, without touching your PC.
 - Send e-mails to a POP3 mailbox and have Arduino react to the contents of the emails.
 - Log data directly to a CSV file on the PC, so the data can be used in spreadsheets or databases.
 - Download a file from the internet and have Arduino ask for a specific line of data from the file.
Gobetwino is kind of a "genreric proxy" for Arduino. It's a program running on a PC (Windows only - sorry), that will act on behalf of Arduino and do some of the things that Arduino can't do on its own. So it works like a go between, hence the name.
Gobetwino is free, comes with a detailed user manual, and sample Arduino sketches to show how it can be used.
Gobetwino can be downloaded here.
Check my blog for information about updates, user suggestionns, and bugs.
The current version is to be considered a beta version, it probably still has bugs in it, and no long time stability test has been performed yet.

The stream flows into the Brent Reservoir, then into the River Brent, before running into the River Thames upstream of central London. Although this leak had stopped last time I was there, London's waterways suffer from pollution from breaks in the sewer system and particularly from residents illegally plumbing their domestic sewer systems into storm drains that run straight into the rivers. This is probably something that the local authorities and the Environment Agency should be doing more to combat.

Transferring Module Configuration over a Serial Port

It can be difficult at times to get USB-to-serial adapters working properly. They are not an ideal replacement for proper DB-9 ports as found on older computers. Even modern computers that do have DB-9 ports can have issues. The issue is that USB-to-serial adapters (and most DB-9 ports on newer computers) no longer have a proper UART control chip, and instead emulate that functionality on cheaper ASIC chips. The result is that basic operations (such as monitoring the diagnostics menu or Modbus/Profibus/etc communications) work without issue, yet binary file transfers (such as downloading or uploading in Prosoft Configuration Builder) are unsuccessful. The quality of the UART emulation determines whether these file transfers will work.
Unfortunately, sometimes nothing can be done to resolve this issue short of acquiring another brand of USB-to-serial adapter or using a different computer with a DB-9 serial port. However, there are a few guidelines that can be followed to increase chances of success:
-The configuration ports are hardwired for RS-232 mode at a baud rate of 57,600. Some USB-to-serial adapters have physical switches that may need to be set to match. Otherwise you may need to change your COM port settings to match in your Windows device manager.
-Make sure the SETUP jumper on the module's board is not set. Having the SETUP jumper set will prevent any configuration downloads or uploads.
-A null modem cable (included with the Prosoft module) is required when using a USB-to-serial adapter. It is also required in conjunction with serial cables when connecting to a DB-9 port over RS-232. The null modem cable flips pins 2 & 3 as required for RS-232 operation.
-If the diagnostics menu has previously been accessed and used, it is vitally important to return to the top-level menu. This can be accomplished by hitting Escape, which will exit the diagnostics menu and reboot the module. Alternatively, you can press the 'M' key to return to previous menu several times until the top-level menu is reached. If the diagnostics menu is left at any other menu, all subsequent downloads and uploads will fail until the module is power cycled or returned to the top-level menu by the aforementioned methods.
One USB-to-serial adapter that Prosoft uses internally and has found to be very reliable for binary file transfers is the Trendnet TU-S9 (_URL_ While numerous other brands and models of adapters are reported to work properly, they have not been tested and no guarantee of success can be made.

How to Change Hostname on Debian 12/11/10
Modifying the network device's hostname in a Linux system is an uncomplicated procedure that can be executed via the terminal. This tutorial will cover how to use the command line to change the hostname on Debian 12 Bookworm, Debian 11 Bullseye, and Debian 10 Buster. A hostname is a unique name allocated to a computer or device within a network and is used to differentiate it from other devices on the same network. Modifying the hostname can aid in identifying or customizing a specific network device.
Method 1: Change hostname with "hostnamectl."
The process starts with launching the terminal to change the hostname in Debian. To do so, you can either click on the terminal icon located in the application launcher. After opening the terminal, you must execute the command "sudo hostnamectl set-hostname new_hostname" to modify the hostname. Remember to replace "new_hostname" with the desired name you want to assign to your Debian device.
sudo hostnamectl set-hostname new-hostname
To modify the hostname of the Debian system, replace "new_hostname" in the "sudo hostnamectl set-hostname new_hostname" command with the desired hostname. This command will change the hostname of your Debian device to the specified value.
As an example, executing the following command will modify the hostname to "debian-linux":
sudo hostnamectl set-hostname debian-linux
After modifying the hostname, close the terminal and open a new command line terminal to check if the changes have been applied successfully.
Method 2: Change Hostname with Hostname File
Another way to modify the Debian hostname is to manually edit the "/etc/hostname" file. By changing the hostname value in this file, you can set a new name for your system. First, open the hostname file with the nano text editor:
sudo nano /etc/hostname
Replace the current hostname value with the new desired name you want to assign to your Debian device. An example can, you will need to restart the system to:
debian-linux
To apply the changes you made to the hostname of your Debian system. After restarting, the new hostname will be updated and in effect.
reboot
Conclusion
To sum up, modifying the hostname on Debian can be accomplished either through the "hostnamectl set-hostname" command or by manually editing the "/etc/hostname" file. The "hostnamectl set-hostname" command is the preferred method, which is more efficient and user-friendly. However, if this command is unavailable on your system, then editing the "/etc/hostname" file is a viable alternative. After making the changes, remember to restart the system for the new hostname to take effect.

Abstract
Today's filters, such as quotient, cuckoo, and Morton, have a trade-off between space and speed; even at moderate load factors (e.g., 50%-75% full), their performance degrades nontrivially. The result is that today's systems designers are forced to choose between speed and space usage.
In this paper, we present the vector quotient filter (VQF). The VQF is based on Robin Hood hashing similar to the quotient filter but uses power-of-two-choices hashing to reduce the variance of runs, and thus offers consistent, high throughput across load factors. Power-of-two-choices hashing also makes it more amenable to concurrent updates, compared to the cuckoo filter and variants. Finally, the vector quotient filter is designed to exploit SIMD instructions so that all operations have O(1) cost, independent of the size of the filter or its load factor.
We show that the vector quotient filter is 2× faster for inserts compared to the Morton filter (a cuckoo filter variant and state-of-the-art for inserts) and has similar lookup and deletion performance as the cuckoo filter (which is fastest for queries and deletes), despite having a much simpler design and implementation. The vector quotient filter has minimal performance decline at high load factors, a problem that has plagued all modern filters, including quotient, cuckoo, and Morton. Furthermore, we give a thread-safe implementation of the vector quotient filter and show that the insertion throughput scales 3× with four threads compared to a single thread.

Ayurveda has explained in detail about post natal care of mother. Seasons and place – both have their effect on mental and physical health. Keeping this in mind, Ayurveda has explained in little variations in post natal mother care. Ayurvedic Post Natal Care:
In the last article, we learnt about basics of Ayurvedic post natal care here.
In General following diet for the mother in the first week.
1. Rice gruel mixed with a pinch of ginger and pepper.
2. Horsegram soup added with a spoon of ghee and a pinch of salt.
3. Ash gourd, and radish – fried in ghee.
4. Meat soup – Those accustomed to non veg, can have meat soup.
Post natal care based on season and place:
During winter or rainy season – in cold, moist place –
- Because of coldness, Vata and Kapha will be high. Due to this, digestion power will be low. Hence, initially, ghee is best avoided for initial 3 days.
- Instead, 2 ounce of rice is added with 12 ounce of water, boiled. The scum of this water is added with a pinch of ginger and pepper. This drink is given to mother.
- Once after digestion power is improved, ghee processed with pepper and such other spices are given.
- Ears should be kept closed
- Warm and soothing cloth are preferred.
- Diet and activities with hot qualities are preferred.
- Direct wind exposure is best avoided.
During summer and / or in dry places with high temperature.
- In such places and season Pitta and Vata is high. Hence ghee processed with long pepper etc are administered freely.
- Oil massage with Balaswagandhadi taila / Ksheerabala taila followed by hot water bath is given extra significance.

UW scientists have provided fresh insight into an issue that has vexed civilization since the beginning: how to keep a drink cold on a hot day. It turns out that condensation on the outside of a canned beverage can provide more heat than the surrounding air, meaning your drink would warm more than twice as much in humid weather as in dry heat.
"Probably the most important thing a beer koozie does is not simply insulate the can, but keep condensation from forming on the outside of it," explains Dale Durran, UW professor of atmospheric sciences. Durran is co-author of results published in Physics Today that give the exact warming for a range of plausible summer temperatures and humidity levels. For example, on the hottest, most humid day in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, condensation alone would warm a can from near-freezing temperature to 48 degrees Fahrenheit in just five minutes.
The phenomenon at work—latent heat of condensation—has implications beyond keeping you refreshed on a summer day. The concept is central to research on water vapor, heat transfer and global climate change being conducted by co-author Dargan Frierson, UW associate professor of atmospheric sciences. "We expect a much moister atmosphere with global warming because warmer air can hold a lot more water vapor," Frierson reports.

Masonry workers, crane operators and other construction workers were recently hired to help finish an unusual project — a castle made of 27,000 blocks of ice. Known in St. Paul, Minn., as the Ice Palace, the $1.5 million structure serves as the main attraction at the city's annual Winter Carnival.
Kraus-Anderson Construction of St. Paul had to find additional workers in order to complete the giant structure in time. Work had been delayed because of the weather — it had not been cold enough for the lakes to freeze over. Construction was supposed to begin Dec. 15, but work was halted until ice blocks 1-foot deep could be cut from nearby Lake Phalen. A number of volunteers were waiting to help build the castle, but because it had to be finished quickly, the extra workers and equipment were brought in.
Approximately 16 unionized masons worked three daily shifts, while several crane operators worked to lift ice blocks on top of the five turrets. Although the added expense of the workers was not calculated into the cost of the palace, the festival's board of directors plans to use any surplus money from the admission tickets toward the labor. Kraus-Anderson is doing the work pro-bono. Many of the original volunteers on the project were also construction workers.
Although the first ice palace was constructed in 1886, visitors to the festival haven't been able to walk through the structure since 1941 because of safety concerns. This year, however, a volunteer team of 20 architects and engineers from SSL/Leo A. Daly firm worked to make the palace safe for visitors to tour. The castle contains eight thrones made of ice as well as a giant ice fountain. Lights within the palace's turrets are part of the festival's annual light show. The palace will be open to visitors until Feb. 7.

8 Ways to Incorporate the Sled into Your Workout
Want to build some serious strength and power? Maybe you should try out sled training! Check out these 8 ways to incorporate the sled into your workouts!
Sleds have gained popularity in the past few years, most notably due to Louie Simmons at Westside Barbell for promoting the effectiveness of sled work.
Sleds aren't available everywhere. You will be hard-pressed to find a sled in most commercial gyms.
However, with the gain in popularity, there's a chance you may find one in yours.
And it might be that neglected piece of steel with ropes attached to it, sitting in the corner of your gym, unused.
Whether your goal is to get stronger, get faster, increase power output, increase conditioning, increase your anaerobic threshold, or just want to feel like a badass, there's no doubt that sled work will help you in all of these categories.
In this article I will discuss variations of how to use the sled, ranging from beginner to advanced, and progressions based on your goal (increase speed or increase power).
Let's get down to it, shall we?
1. Sled Push
Sled pushing is the most basic technique involving the sled. Whether it's up high or down low, get in an athletic stance, hold onto the handles, and drive forward.
My favorite cue for my athletes is for them to push "through" the sled. Don't just push the sled, drive your entire body through the sled.
A sled push is going to load your quads heavy. Since it will require repeated hip flexion and knee extension, the two motions of the quadriceps and the hip flexors, you can expect this.
Related: Beginner's Guide to Power - 5 Exercises for Explosive Strength
Speed Development: Load the sled with weight that allows you to reach a good amount of speed without an insane amount of resistance. Drive as fast as you can through the sled. This will increase stride frequency, as well as the contractibility of the quads and hip flexors.
Power Development: Load this sucker up. Depending on the surface your pushing this sled on, you can get away with 3-6 45lb plates. The point of this is to recruit as many motor units as possible and increase force output. If you aren't increasing your force output, you aren't pushing this thing anywhere.
2. Sled Pull
Most sleds come with harness attachments, that have two loops that your hands can grasp onto. A sled pull will recruit a ton of motor units in your hips, hamstrings, and a bit of quads. This is an excellent way to overload the posterior.
Generally, most people's posterior is a lot stronger than their anterior, so you can load this up with more weight than you did with your push.
Speed Development: Again, to get more speed, only throw about 50-60% of the max amount you can pull. Pull this with quick feet. This will increase stride frequency and contractibility of the hip extensors and hamstrings.
Power Development: Since your posterior is going to be stronger, you can load this up real heavy. I'm talking 5-10 plates heavy. The key here is to take bigger steps, driving your hips back and contracting each step.

3. Sled Rows
Sleds allow you to hit your upper body with this as well. This can be a lot more effective than sitting stationary on a machine doing pull-downs or rows.
Load this up with about 60% of the max you can pull.
Grasp your hands in the harness handles, step all the way back, pulling the slack out of the harness, slight squat and at the same time, row both handles, pulling the sled towards you, squeezing your lats. Rinse and repeat, constantly walking back to pull the slack out of the harness.
4. Sled Lunge
Sled lunges are easiest performed with a belt. Put the belt through the harness loops, and position them in the center of the back of the belt, and put it on.
Load this sled up with only 30-40% you can pull.
Walk forward until you pull the slack out of the harness, and start lunging. This will pull you back, so you have to overcompensate by keeping pressure forward when you are lunging.
Speed Development: Lunge forward quicker with less weight on the sled, with no pauses at the top.
Power Development: Taking reaching leaps forward with your lunges, with a greater amount of weight loaded on the sled.
Progression: Hold dumbbells at your side, or up by your face.
5. Sled Pull-Through
In my opinion, besides a squat and deadlift, this is the third best movement you can do for total hip strength.
The hips love to be in extension, and the ability to generate force throughout the entire movement of hip extension allows you to blast them and really develop strong hips.
Load the sled up with about 70-80% the max you can pull. Grasp both handles in between your legs, walk forward pulling the slack out of the harness, and with a wide stance, bend over, and then extend your torso and hips forward, pulling the sled forward.
This movement is really only useful for hip strength and power.
6. Sled Lateral Shuffle
This requires a belt. Loop the belt through the loops of the harness, but instead of having the harness behind you, you will have it to your side. Load the sled with 50-60% of total weight you can pull.
With the harness attached to the belt at the side, shuffle laterally the opposite way. Get low and keep the slack out of the harness. Repeat the opposite way, keeping your lateral movements even.
Speed Development: Increase your footwork laterally by dropping the weight, keeping lower and shuffling a bit faster.
Power Development: Load the sled up with a bit more weight, and take slower, but constant shuffles.
7. Sled Bear Crawls
Nothing is more primitive than crawling like a bear pulling heavy weight. Sometimes you just need to get down to your primitive state and work hard. You can do this with a belt, the same way you attached it for your lunges. Or you can wrap the harness handles around your shoulders. Be careful pulling heavy weight this technique as it can be bad on your shoulders.
Get in basic bear crawl position, with the sled attached in some form or another, crawl down, pulling the weight of the sled. Keep constantly driving forward.
Speed Development: Lower the weight, but crawl like a bat outta hell. Crawl like you've never crawled before.
Power Development: Load the sled up, and crawl through the figurative mud. This is where you have to dig deep and reach that inner beast in you.

8. Sled Forward Jump
These will increase explosive power in your hips. Forward jumps are hard enough alone, but there's always room to make something harder.
Attach the harness to your belt, or around your shoulders. Use only 30-40% of the weight you can pull. There's no need to put a whole lot of weight on this movement, or you can risk hurting yourself.
Related: 4 Conditioning Workouts Using Weights
With the sled attached, squat, and swing explode your arms and legs forward as far as you can like a broad jump, pulling the sled with you. When you land, walk forward, pulling the slack out of the harness, and repeat.
Power Development: This is excellent for creating greater force output. The harder you jump forward, the more force you are creating, thus leading to greater power development (because power = work x time).
Conclusion
Start taking your conditioning and power training to the next level. Sleds provide an extremely simple, yet extremely effective way to increase your conditioning.
Now that you have some ideas of how to use this piece of equipment, let's get after it!

Kikiaola Harbor is located along the southwest coast of the island of Kauai between the towns of Kekaha and Waimea. The Federal project modified an existing harbor, which was originally developed by the State of Hawaii in 1959. The project was authorized under Section 101 of the River and Harbor Act of 1968 and it was completed in 2009 at a cost of $18,771,500.
The Federal project consists of a dredged 725-foot-long entrance channel varying in width from 105 to 205 feet to a depth of 11 feet, a dredged 320-foot-long access channel varying in width from 70 to 105 feet to a depth of seven feet, removal of 150 feet of the existing outer east stub breakwater, raising the crest elevation and flattening the seaward slope of approximately 764 feet of the existing east breakwater, removing and reconstructing the 71-foot-long inner east breakwater, and modifying 245 feet of the seaward portion of the existing west breakwater.
These navigation improvements were designed to eliminate dangerous breaking wave conditions within the entrance channel and allow for the safe passage of vessels entering the basin. The local sponsor, State of Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources, continues to work towards fulfilling their obligation to construct items of local cooperation such as the sand bypass system and west breakwater root repair. These features are integral to the overall function of the modified harbor project.

Since 2004, Danella Companies has worked to help each student at John H. Webster Elementary School have the opportunity for success. Primarily Danella supports the Kindergarten through Second Grade students through donations and encouraging each students' talents.
The culture of Webster is built around the 3 R's: be responsible, be respectful, and be a role model. These students often come from poverty-stricken areas of the city and lack the essential supplies to achieve a proper education. Danella over the years has worked to help build up Webster's learning environment. Donations have included school supplies, printer paper, reading libraries, field trips, and an end of the year party. We have also helped to provide school uniforms for students and provided gift cards to the principal to be used at their discretion.
The primary work that Danella does with Webster, however, is the Christmas Project. The project which supports both Webster Elementary School and LaSalle Academy result in donations of gifts to each school thanks to many Danella vendors' support. The program started with getting presents for one classroom, and other companies sponsored additional classrooms. Over the last 13 years, Danella's support has grown to help over 400 students in Kindergarten, First Grade, Second Grade, and Intellectual Disability classrooms at Christmas time. The Kindergartens and First Grade are both given stockings and drawstring bags with winter hats and mittens, learning materials, books, coloring books, and snacks. Each Kindergartener is also gifted a game from Santa. The First Grade receives a gift that they request from Santa through their letters they write to the jolly man. Danella employees each donate these personalized gifts for the children. Second Grade classrooms are also gifted chapter books to encourage reading at home during the winter break.
As a company, Danella is proud to support John H. Webster Elementary School in any way needed.


Different Kinds of Greek Breads to Eat
Written by in Comments Off on Different Kinds of Greek Breads to Eat
Mediterranean snacks set. Olives, oil, herbs and sliced ciabatta bread on black slate stone board over painted dark blue background, top view.When we eat Greek bread here in the United States, most of us only think of a few types. There's the white bread with the hard crust that we eat with our meals and maybe also a whole grain version for those who are more health conscious. There's also the special occasion breads, such as those that are eaten on Easter, and also the flatbread that is used in gyros.
However,Greek cuisine is made up of a multitude of different types of breads! Here is an overview of the different types of Greek breads there are:
"City" Bread
The white Greek bread that we know especially well outside of Greece is actually thought of as "city bread" in Greece. This bread is usually made from refined wheat flour or semolina (or a combination of the two). It's called city bread because these refined flours are more readily available in parts of the country that aren't isolated, such as the larger cities.
"Country" Bread
In many parts of Greece, there are only certain types of flour that are readily available. In some of the villages, the people grind their own flour from grains such as wheat and barley. As a result, "country breads" that use these rustic flours are more common in the small villages and remote areas of Greece. They are usually made with yeast or sourdough starter and baked in large, domed ovens that are located outside.
There are two basic understandings of what "paximadia" is in Greek cuisine. Many of us know it as a type of dessert cookie that is similar to the Italian biscotti. However, it also has another meaning. Some refer to it as the twice-baked toasts that allow the bread to keep far longer than if it were stored in its soft state after it was initially baked. The truth is, paximadia originated in the fifth century B.C.E and was a regular staple food since it took a long time for it to go bad. Today, they are made by slicing regular bread and baking it for 20 minutes in an oven that is set at 400 Degrees Fahrenheit. They are also referred to as "rusks".
Bread Rings
Bread rings, or koulouria, are another popular food in Greek cuisine. The nature of these breads changes depending on the time of year or the area of Greece that they were baked. Technically speaking, you can use any type of bread dough that you want to make. Instead of forming the dough in loaves, you just form it into small rings. Mavrokoulouria are made from black barley, and other types of koulouria are coated with egg wash and sesame seeds.
Pita Bread
Pita bread is also another type of bread that is common in Greek cuisine. Some form of this bread is popular in several cuisines throughout the world. In Greece, they are most often used to dip into spreads such as tzatziki and they are also used for gyros and souvlaki sandwiches. Greek pita bread is different than other types of pita bread because the Greek version tends to be much softer.
Special Occasion Breads
This is another important type of bread in Greek cuisine. Special occasion breads that we eat during holidays such as Christmas (Christopsoumo), Easter (Tsoureki), and New Year's (Vasilopita) are made only once a year. The one thing all of these breads has in common is that they are on the sweet side. Because they are only made once a year, they're a highly anticipated part of the celebrations.
As you can see, there is a high variety of bread in Greek cuisine!

Credit unions across the country have embraced the jungle-inspired "Wild About Saving" theme of National Credit Union Youth Month, which promotes the importance of financial responsibility by offering children and teens a chance to win free adventures to area zoos, aquariums, museums, and more.
"Youth Month is all about getting children and their parents excited—maybe even a little wild—about savings," says Karina Garcia of $1.4 billion asset CFE Federal Credit Union in Lake Mary, Fla., who submitted this year's winning theme.
National Credit Union Youth Month, held throughout April, gives credit unions a platform to connect with their young members and instill solid money management concepts. The event, created and managed by CUNA, has become an extended celebration from previous years, when activities were condensed into one week.
"By starting youth on the right path towards saving goals and financial education, Youth Month helps credit unions build strong, lifelong relationships with their members," says Joanne Sepich, CUNA's youth month coordinator.
Here's how some these credit unions are celebrating Youth Month:
- Michigan Schools and Government Credit Union, $1.5 billion assets, Clinton Township, honored Morgan Freshney and her brother, Dawson, who became the credit union's 100,000th and 100,001st members.
- NW Plus Credit Union, $157 million assets, Everett, Wash., offers a year-long family pass to the Woodland Park Zoo to anyone under 18 who opens a savings account.
- Holy Rosary Credit Union, $207 million assets, Rochester, N.Y., encourages youngsters to visit the branch and pick up a coloring contest entry form. Those who submit entries will be eligible to win prizes that include museum passes and gift cards.
- Clearview Federal Credit Union, $950 million assets, Moon Township, Pa., gives young members a chance to win four tickets to the Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium just by visiting a branch.
- Envista Credit Union, $265 million assets, Topeka, Kan., will award nine $25 Toys R Us gift cards and other giveaway items to winners of a contest rewarding youngsters who visit a branch.
In addition to the prizes individual credit unions offer, young members can register for the National Youth Saving Challenge™ and a chance at winning one of 25 $100 prizes.


Question: Can A Person Survive Without Oxygen?
Is dying from lack of oxygen painful?
This leads to asphyxiation (death from lack of oxygen) without the painful and traumatic feeling of suffocation (the hypercapnic alarm response, which in humans arises mostly from carbon dioxide levels rising), or the side effects of poisoning..
Can the brain repair itself after lack of oxygen?
A full recovery from severe anoxic or hypoxic brain injury is rare, but many patients with mild anoxic or hypoxic brain injuries are capable of making a full or partial recovery. Furthermore, symptoms and effects of the injury are dependent on the area(s) of the brain that was affected by the lack of oxygen.
Can we live without oxygen?
Many of these lifeforms – such as bacteria and archaea – are still living happily without oxygen today. … Until the 2010 discovery of the loriciferans, no complex multicellular lifeforms had been found that can live entirely without oxygen.
How long can humans live without oxygen?
How long can the brain go without oxygen before serious damage occurs? After five to ten minutes of not breathing, you are likely to develop serious and possibly irreversible brain damage. The one exception is when a younger person stops breathing and also becomes very cold at the same time.
Can a person still hear after they die?
What happens if you stop breathing for 1 minute?
Can a dead person cry?
Can a dying person cry?
Does dying hurt?
How long can the heart survive without oxygen?
Can you survive if your heart stops for 20 minutes?

Exhibit 7.10 Entry fee and less than fair odds to achieve $125,000
analysis, it is clear that an increase in Bets , regardless of Entry Fee , will result in an
increase of $10,000 in Proﬁts for each $10 increment. We can see this by subtracting
any two adjacent values in the column. For example, the difference between 125,000
in cell Q20 and 135,000 in cell Q21, for an Entry Fee of $30 and Bets of $50 and $60,
is $10,000. Similarly, a $10 increment for Entry Fee results in a $25,000 increase
in Proﬁts , regardless of the level of the Bet . For example, 125,000 in cell Q20 and
150,000 in cell R20, for a Bet of $50 and Entry Fee of $30 and $40, is $25,000. This
simple sensitivity analysis suggests that increasing Entry Fee is a more effective
source of Proﬁt than increasing Bet , for similar increments of change ($10).
Now, let us see how we create a single-variable and two-variable Data Table.
The Data Table tool is a convenient method to construct a table for a particular cell
formula calculation and record the formula's variation as one, or two, variables in
the formula change. The process of creating a table begins by ﬁrst selecting the
formula that is to be used as table values. In our case the formula is Proﬁt calcu-
lation. In Exhibit 7.12 we see the Proﬁt formula reference, cell K23, placed in the
cell N2. The Bet Values that will be used in the formula are entered in cells M3
through M12. This is a one variable table that will record the changes in Proﬁt as
Bet Value is varied from 10 to 100 in increments of 10. A one variable Table can take

What does it do:
When purchasing Gift Cards online, the recipient is now simply sent an email, informing them that they have a new Gift Card, and prompting them to claim it by creating an account (or adding their Gift Card to their existing account if they already have one).
What you need to know:
When purchasing a Gift Card online, previously, the purchaser was required to create an account for the recipient (or add the Gift Card to the recipients existing account).
Why is this good:
For privacy reasons, it is no longer possible for the purchaser to create an account on behalf of the recipient. The recipient is asked to create their own account. Each customer is therefore in full control of their own account and personal information.

is a piece of absorbent fabric
used for drying or wiping. It draws moisture
through direct contact using a blotting or a rubbing motion.
Types of towels
- A bath towel is used for drying one's body after bathing or showering. It is typically rectangular, with a typical size around 30"×60" (75×150 cm). A large bath towel is sometimes called a bath sheet. Some smaller bath towels are designed for use as bath mats.
- A beach towel is usually a little bit larger than a bath towel. Although it is often used for drying off after being in the water, its chief purpose is to provide a surface to lie on to relax or just to tan. They are also worn for privacy while changing clothes in a public area, and for wiping sand from the body or objects. Beach towels often have colourful patterns printed or woven into them.
- A change of towels, as supplied by maid service in an American-style hotel, is one bath towel, one hand towel, and one washcloth.
- A foot towel is a small, rectangular towel which, in the absence of a rug, carpet or bathroom mat, is placed on the bathroom floor to stand on after finishing a shower or bath.
- A hand towel is significantly smaller than a bath towel (perhaps 30x60 cm), and is used for drying one's hands after washing them.
- The term kitchen towel can refer to either a dish towel or to a paper towel, the latter usage being primarily British.
- A paper towel is a piece of paper that can be used once as a towel and then be disposed of. A perforated roll of paper towels is normally mounted on a rod a little longer than the width of the roll, or in an alternative type of hanger that has indentations on ears, the indentations fitting into the ends of the paper towel roll. Paper towels can also be found packaged like facial tissues, as individual folded sheets.
- A show towel is a sub species of the common bath or hand towel that has had trim, such as satin, lace or linen stitched onto it, or embroidery done on it, mainly to simply "look nice". They are used to add a decorative touch, usually to a bathroom, most commonly in the USA. They should not be used to actually dry anything, as regular washing ruins the added trim, and the towel buckles as well (because the towel usually shrinks differently than the trim).
- A sports towel or chamois is a towel used by swimmers and divers, it is a super absorbent towel that wipes water away and when it becomes too wet and can be squeezed to get the water out of the towel so it can be used again.
- A sweat towel is often of similar size to a hand towel, and can be required in gyms in order to wipe down the machines after use.
- A tea towel (British English) or dish towel (American English) is a cloth which is used to dry dishes, cutlery, etc., after they have been washed. In 18th century England, a tea towel was a special linen drying cloth used by the mistress of the house to dry her precious and expensive china tea things. Servants were considered too ham-fisted to be trusted with such a delicate job, although housemaids were charged with hand-hemming the woven linen when their main duties were completed. Mass-produced tea towels were produced during the Industrial Revolution. Today pictorial tea towels make humorous ironic souvenirs.
- A washcloth, wash cloth, flannel, or face cloth is a small square about the width of a hand towel, and is used by wetting, applying soap to the towel, and then using the towel to apply the soap to skin. This increases abrasion, and can remove dead skin cells from the skin more effectively than just manual application and rubbing of soap.
- A wet towel (oshibori) is used in Japan to wash one's hands before eating. It is often given to customers of an izakaya.
Towels are often used for purposes other than drying things. For example
- To sit, lie and stand on, to avoid direct contact with the ground, sand, rock, chair, etc. This may be for hygiene and comfort, and in saunas or other places where nudity is common.
- Barbers use steamed towels to prepare the skin for shaving.
- To reserve seats, for example sunloungers, by the side of swimming pools or similar locations (a source of annoyance to some and amusement to others).
- A towel can act as a make-shift garment or blanket. There is a variety of uses when a towel is applied in this manner. For example, the towel can be used as an extra layer of clothing for cold conditions; or can be worn on its own around the waist (similarly to a kilt or skirt) or just under the shoulders (similarly to a long dress), usually in a warm environment.
- In Asian countries, towels (smaller in size than hand towels - usually 30 cm square) are used as handkerchiefs. Men and women both carry them. The softness of the Turkish-type towel makes it a favourite for use.
- In some cases, a towel can be used to protect its owner (as well as other people). For example, a damp towel can be used to block the gap between the door and floor to help stop noxious gases or smoke from entering the room. This is especially useful in case of a fire, where, in most cases, people die of smoke inhalation before the fire reaches them.
- On cruise ships, towel animals are created for the patrons.
- Towels can also be used like a whip in what is known as towel snapping.
- To hold hot objects, much like an oven glove.
- Towels may also be used as a head dress for wet hair.
- Towels can be used as a "sling" for a broken arm.
- Towels are often used for "ice blocking."
- In boxing or other combat sports, a figher's cornerman could throw a towel into the ring to concede the fighter's defeat in that match. This is called "throwing in the towel."
- At sporting events, sometimes towels are handed out to fans to wave around to cheer on their team.
Appearances in popular culture
- Towels played an iconic role in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. They are described as the most "massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have," an example usage being to ward off the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal. The fictitious time/space traveller and Guide Researcher Ford Prefect uses the idiom "a hoopy frood who really knows where his towel is" to mean someone generally alert and aware. Some fans of Douglas Adams have seized on this idea, and towels are now considered a symbol of one's devotion to the Hitchhiker books, radio series, TV series, website, etc. Towel Day is held each year in memory of Adams.
- In the cartoon South Park a character named Towelie is a walking, talking "RG-400 Smart Towel" manufactured by Tynacorp. He frequently reminds people to bring towels, because you'll never know when you'll need a towel.
- Fans started using the Terrible Towel in 1975 to encourage the Pittsburgh Steelers as they sought (and eventually won) an NFL championship. The Terrible Towel has been in use by the Steelers since and is "arguably the best-known fan symbol of any major pro sports team". Other sports teams have since started using so-called "rally towels" in support of their team.
- In 1982 Roger Neilson, the then head coach of the Vancouver Canucks, waved a white towel on the end of a hockey stick in mock surrender at what he felt was a sequence of unfair penalties during a playoff game against the Chicago Blackhawks. This became known as Towel Power. The following game thousands of fans brought and waved towels and it has remained a traditional way for fans to show their support during the playoffs. During Playoff games, GM Place hands these towels out bearing the Canucks logo.
The invention of the towel associated, at least apocryphally, with the city of Bursa
. The city is still noted for the production of "Turkish towels."

- "Plasmonic Manipulation of DNA using a Combination of Optical and Thermophoretic Forces: Separation of Different-Sized DNA from Mixture Solution."
- Sci. Rep., 10 (2020), 3349.
We demonstrate the size-dependent separation and permanent immobilization of DNA on plasmonic substrates by means of plasmonic optical tweezers. We found that a gold nanopyramidal dimer array enhanced the optical force exerted on the DNA, leading to permanent immobilization of the DNA on the plasmonic substrate. The immobilization was realized by a combination of the plasmon-enhanced optical force and the thermophoretic force induced by a photothermal effect of the plasmons. In this study, we applied this phenomenon to the separation and fixation of size-different DNA. During plasmon excitation, DNA strands of different sizes became permanently immobilized on the plasmonic substrate forming micro-rings of DNA. The diameter of the ring was larger for longer DNA (in base pairs). When we used plasmonic optical tweezers to trap DNA of two different lengths dissolved in solution (φx DNA (5.4 kbp) and λ-DNA (48.5 kbp), or φx DNA and T4 DNA (166 kbp)), the DNA were immobilized, creating a double micro-ring pattern. The DNA were optically separated and immobilized in the double ring, with the shorter sized DNA and the larger one forming the smaller and larger rings, respectively. This phenomenon can be quantitatively explained as being due to a combination of the plasmon-enhanced optical force and the thermophoretic force. Our plasmonic optical tweezers open up a new avenue for the separation and immobilization of DNA, foreshadowing the emergence of optical separation and fixation of biomolecules such as proteins and other ncuelic acids.

How to Add Video to Text
author avatar
Jun 11, 2024• Proven solutions
It may be challenging to capture the attention of your audience if the video openings or PowerPoint presentations contain too much text. Striking a perfect balance between the visual and textual elements isn't always easy, especially if the text is the only way to convey essential information to the audience.
Luckily, video editing and presentation software products offer the tools you will need to combine video and text. In this article, we are going to show you how to add a video to text in PowerPoint and Filmora.
Part 1: How to Add Video to Text for Free with PowerPoint?
An effective PowerPoint presentation should contain proportionate amounts of textual and visual elements. Using too many images, videos or animations can make following a presentation difficult, just as too much text can render a presentation too static.
Adding videos to titles or subtitles you include in a slideshow you're creating in PowerPoint can help you create a presentation that is both informative and visually entertaining. The process of combining videos with text in PowerPoint isn't overly complicated, but you will still need to go through it several times in order to become familiar with it.
You should start by creating a new slide and adding a textbox to it. Proceed to type the word or phrase into the textbox and go on to format the text. Pick the font that matches the style of your presentation and make sure that the text size is large enough for the video to be visible.
Head over to the Insert tab, select Rectangle from the Shapes menu, and create a rectangular shape over the entire slide. Right-click on the slide and choose the Send to Back option from the menu. In this manner, you will position the rectangle you created behind the textbox.
Add video to text - Powerpoint- insert shape
The next step you will have to take is to create the cut-out of the text within the rectangle. Select both the text and shape you placed in the background before clicking on the Format tab that is located near the end of PowerPoint's ribbon.
Find the Insert Shape option and choose Subtract from the Merge Shapes drop-down menu. The shape of the text in the textbox will be applied to the object in the background, which enables you to add a video to that text.
Add video to text - Powerpoint- substract
Click on the Insert tab, and then choose the Video option from the Media menu. You can insert a video that is stored on a local hard drive or the Internet to PowerPoint. The video will cover the entire slide, so you must right-click on it and select the Send to Back option.
You can then fine-tune the video playback settings from the Playback tab. Preview the results before you move on to the next slide in your presentation, and make necessary adjustments if you don't like how the video merged with the text.
Part 2: Adding Video to Text in Filmora
Besides presentation software, you can also use video editing software products to add a video to text. Filmora lets you add a video to text in just a few simple steps. You can first make a text video with animation first, and then use the picture in picture feature to add the video to text. Here are the detailed information about how to add a video to text in Filmora.
Download Filmora9 Win Version Download Filmora9 Mac Version
You should start by creating a new project in Filmora and importing the video you want to add to the text into the project. Click on the Titles tab, and choose the title that matches the visual style of your project.
Add video to text - Filmora9
Set the preferred duration of the title by dragging one of its ends to the left or right after you place it on the timeline, and then double-click on it to customize it. Click on the Advanced button once the Text tab opens and insert the text into the Input Text box.
Add video to text - Filmora9 Advanced Editing
Proceed to select a font and adjust the text size before deciding if you want to animate the text. When done, you should export the title as a video file, and then import it back into your project.
Now it's time to add the text video and the background video to the project media library, and then place the two videos one above the other. Since we're adding video to text, the text video should be placed above the background video.
Add video to text - Filmora9 Compositing
Click on the video that contains text to gain access to the Video tab of the Editor panel and then expand the Compositing menu. Change the Blending Mode to Multiply, and the text in the overlaying video should be filled with the parts of the footage from the video below it.
Optionally you can enhance the colors in the background video or adjust the size of the text before exporting your project from Filmora.
Conclusion
There are so many different ways to create visually striking content, and adding videos to text is just one among numerous techniques that enable you to make a PowerPoint presentation or an opening of a video more interesting to watch.
Merging text with video is equally easy in PowerPoint and Filmora, so you just have to choose which software better suits your needs and select the materials that fit the style of your project. Learning how to add a video to text won't take too much of your time, as this process can be completed in just a few quick steps. Which software are you using to add a video to text?
