Why High-Risk Encounters Require SWAT
SWAT officers should develop rapport within their agency to better serve the officers who may call on their services.
February 25, 2011 | by Robert O'Brien - Also by this author
Suspect searches consistently rank among the most dangerous, deadliest LE assignments. Recognizing this, SWAT is often utilized to conduct known high-risk, dangerous searches.
In his feature article, "Duty Dangers: Into the Hearts of Darkness," Dean Scoville nailed it, "Most tactical teams have the weaponry, shields, and sophisticated surveillance tools such as pole cameras to mitigate the hazards of such a search."
NTOA trainer Don Alwes puts it another way. "It comes back to the three Ts — time, tactics, and troops."
SWAT can't be everywhere, or handle everything. Every LE agency needs to determine the criteria for utilizing SWAT. Policies vary greatly among LE agencies. For example, some departments mandate SWAT for felony and drug searches. Others only call SWAT for the highest-risk searches. The majority of department's policies strike a middle ground.
Other factors for SWAT utilization include violent crime rate, size of LE agency, and the availability of a fullor part-time team. There's another seldom discussed factor that often determines SWAT requests. The reputation and rapport between patrol, detectives, and SWAT.
Simply put, some SWAT teams have poor reputations in their departments. These teams are usually viewed as arrogant, unapproachable, elitist, too slow to respond, and seldom requested. In contrast, teams with good reputations are respected, considered approachable, non-elitist, respond rapidly, and stay busy.
A SWAT unit's reputation is earned through experience. SWAT exists to protect and serve citizens and fellow officers. It's critical that every SWAT team has a good reputation. Any team that doesn't, needs to do whatever it takes to fix that immediately.
SWAT's reputation in its own agency is sometimes overlooked. However, there's no higher sign of respect for any SWAT team than to be respected by their fellow officers. That reputation needs to be mutual. Because we're all in this together.
There's an old saying from SWAT's early years, "When citizens are in trouble, they call the police. When police are in trouble, they call SWAT."
Just as citizens need to feel they can call police when they're in trouble or need help; police need to feel the same about counting on their SWAT teams when they're in trouble or need help. There should never be any bad blood or friction between SWAT and the rest of their agency. If any exists, it needs to be nipped in the bud immediately.
Whether we realize it or not, every SWAT officer is an ambassador for our teams, and also the entire SWAT profession. Just as LE agencies/departments have reputations, so do SWAT teams. A team's reputation begins in a team's own agency/department.
SWAT teams need to also develop a good rapport with other SWAT teams, especially those in their region.
Why is it so important for SWAT teams to have a good rapport with the rest of LE? For the very same reason SWAT was created in the 1960s, and continues to exist today, more than 40 years later. It's to save lives — citizens and police alike.
So much in LE involves judgment calls that are often made under the pressure of time and circumstances. Suspect and drug searches are prime examples. Searches that range from high to unknown risk — most falling somewhere in between — all having the potential to become high risk.
This gray area is where judgment calls are usually made, whether before the fact or at the last minute on the street. I'm a believer in calling and talking with SWAT when an assignment might be something better suited for them. You'll never know unless you ask. This is where a team's reputation comes into play.
And that's the point. SWAT has the duty and obligation not only to citizens, but also to their fellow officers.

POPE-RACISM (UPDATED) Aug-18-2008 (410 words) With photos. xxxi
Pope urges church to help overcome racism in modern society
By John Thavis
Catholic News Service
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Pope Benedict XVI warned that racism is alive in modern society, and he urged the church to help overcome all forms of racial intolerance.
He said racism today is often tied to economic and social problems. Although such problems may be real, they can never justify racial discrimination, he said Aug. 17.
While the pontiff did not mention specific countries, his words had an immediate echo in Italy, where a series of government actions against illegal immigrants have prompted strong debate inside and outside the church.
The pope, addressing pilgrims at his summer residence in Castel Gandolfo outside Rome, began his remarks by quoting the prophet Isaiah about the "foreigners" who will be included in the Lord's universal house of prayer.
Likewise, the pope said, the church today is made up of people of every race and culture, and part of its mission is to help forge bonds of communion between races.
That task includes "helping civil society to overcome any possible temptation to racism, intolerance and exclusion," he said.
"One of humanity's great achievements is, in fact, overcoming racism," he said.
The pope said various countries had "new, worrisome signs of racism, often tied to social and economic problems," but such problems could "never justify racial contempt and discrimination."
The pope asked for prayers so that mutual acceptance may grow in the world.
In Italy, some Catholics have criticized the government's new crackdown on illegal immigration and other security measures, saying they are racially discriminatory.
Some of the strongest criticism came after the government, led by Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, announced plans to fingerprint every Gypsy who lives in Italy. The Catholic magazine Famiglia Cristiana, Italy's top-selling newsweekly, said the plan was evidence of a "creeping racism."
In mid-August, Famiglia Cristiana stepped up its criticism of the Berlusconi government, saying in effect that officials were provoking a "war among the poor" instead of dealing with Italy's real criminal problems. The comments prompted an outcry.
On Aug. 14, the Vatican spokesman, Jesuit Father Federico Lombardi, said that while Famiglia Cristiana was an important Catholic magazine its views represented its own editorial line and not necessarily that of the Vatican or the Italian bishops.
Members of the political parties that form the governing coalition said the spokesman's statement represented a clear distancing of the Vatican from the magazine's criticism.

The soldermask needs to be adjusted to compensate for possible misalignments of the soldermask. We use an automated system to detect whether a soldermask opening has already been adjusted or not.
Every process has imprecisions to a certain degree, this also applies to the soldermask of PCBs. A misalignment of the soldermask might cover up parts of a pad, resulting in less space to mount a component. A soldermask opening around a Pad compensates for some misregistration. The opening is typically 20~125µm larger per side than the copper pad, the value depends on the component. Reputable component manufacturers will often provide an example landpattern with a recommended soldermask opening.
Some designs may not have adjusted soldermask openings, to provide an optimal PCB we use an automated system to adjust the opening. In this paragraph, we explain how the system works and what its capabilities are.
Our System assumes that optimized soldermask openings are larger than the copper pad. Square, Rectangular and Round openings can be optimized, irregular shapes will be left as is.
When a design is uploaded, our system will create a test opening/area which is 10 µm smaller than the soldermask openings in the design. The system will now create test points along the outline of the test opening/area and probe if the test shape touches copper. If all test points touch copper, we assume the opening was not optimized. We will then enlarge the original opening by 20µm.
If some points do not touch copper, we assume the soldermask opening was already adjusted.
Gerber files do not contain any information about pads, so we can only detect whether copper is present or not. This means that the automatic system cannot correctly detect Pads placed in copper fills, as a result, they will not be adjusted. We do not categorize this as problematic, as small pads where a soldermask misalignment might be suboptimal are typically not connected to copper planes.

Testing General Relativity Principles
The precession of the orbital node of a particle orbiting a rotating mass is known as Lense-Thirring effect (LTE) and is a manifestation of the general relativistic phenomenon of dragging of inertial frames or frame-dragging. The LTE has been measured by using the node drifts of the LAGEOS satellites and GRACE-based Earth gravity field models with an accuracy of about 10% in the recent years. With the LARES experiment launched in 2012 an improvement down to a few percent is anticipated.
A new in-house LAGEOS analysis incorporating a suite of recent gravity field models confirms the 10% level. An example graphical representation of the combination of LAGEOS and LAGEOS-2 data over the years 2000-2016 based on the EIGEN-GRACE03S gravity field is given here. The green line shows the LTE node drift, a regression reveals 46.6 mas/a (milliarcseconds per year) versus a theoretical value of 48.2 mas/a, so a deviation from the prediction by 3%. The red dots show the observed node differences every seven days, eventually being accumulated to yield the green line.
We also investigated the potential of GALILEO to contribute in testing the LTE. It turned out that the solar radiation pressure effects will most likely hide the LTE, however with some proper knowledge of the satellite surface properties and by averaging over the full constellation and by a proper tuning of the POD there remains a chance though. So we will keep up our interest into this for the GALILEO operational phase.

Cultural Map of the World (Inglehart-Welzel)
This is an application of a factor analysis plot, used in this case to display the 'cultural proximity' of several countries. This proximity is calculated based on survey scores on areas such as politics, religion and social life. The data is'reduced' to some dimensions (displayed in the axis of the chart) and then plot according to how much they load in each dimension. This type of graph is used specially in qualitative research.


Router.
router.get("/some/path").handler(routingContext -> {
 routingContext.put("foo", "bar");
 routingContext.next();
});
router.get("/some/path/B").handler(routingContext -> {
 routingContext.response().end();
});
router.get("/some/path").handler(routingContext -> {
 routingContext.reroute("/some/path/B");
});
So from the code you can see that if a request arrives at /some/path if first add a value to the context, then moves to the next handler that re routes the request to /some/path/B which terminates the request.
You can reroute based on a new path or based on a new path and method. Note however that rerouting based on method might introduce security issues since for example a usually safe GET request can become a DELETE.
Sub-routers
Sometimes if you have a lot of handlers it can make sense to split them up into multiple routers. This is also useful if you want to reuse a set of handlers in a different application, rooted at a different path root.
To do this you can mount a router at a mount point in another router. The router that is mounted is called a sub-router. Sub routers can mount other sub routers so you can have several levels of sub-routers if you like.
Let's look at a simple example of a sub-router mounted with another router.
This sub-router will maintain the set of handlers that corresponds to a simple fictional REST API. We will mount that on another router. The full implementation of the REST API is not shown.
Here's the sub-router:
Router restAPI = Router.router(vertx);
restAPI.get("/products/:productID").handler(rc -> {
 // TODO Handle the lookup of the product....
 rc.response().write(productJSON);
});
restAPI.put("/products/:productID").handler(rc -> {
 // TODO Add a new product...
 rc.response().end();
});
restAPI.delete("/products/:productID").handler(rc -> {
 // TODO delete the product...
 rc.response().end();
});
If this router was used as a top level router, then GET/PUT/DELETE requests to urls like /products/product1234 would invoke the API.
However, let's say we already have a web-site as described by another router:
Router mainRouter = Router.router(vertx);
// Handle static resources
mainRouter.route("/static/*").handler(myStaticHandler);
mainRouter.route(".*\\.templ").handler(myTemplateHandler);
We can now mount the sub router on the main router, against a mount point, in this case /productsAPI
mainRouter.mountSubRouter("/productsAPI", restAPI);
This means the REST API is now accessible via paths like: /productsAPI/products/product1234
Localization
Vert.x Web parses the Accept-Language header and provides some helper methods to identify which is the preferred locale for a client or the sorted list of preferred locales by quality.
Route route = router.get("/localized").handler( rc -> {
 // although it might seem strange by running a loop with a switch we
 // make sure that the locale order of preference is preserved when
 // replying in the users language.
 for (Locale locale : rc.acceptableLocales()) {
 switch (locale.language()) {
 case "en":
 rc.response().end("Hello!");
 return;
 case "fr":
 rc.response().end("Bonjour!");
 return;
 case "pt":
 rc.response().end("Olá!");
 return;
 case "es":
 rc.response().end("Hola!");
 return;
 }
 }
 // we do not know the user language so lets just inform that back:
 rc.response().end("Sorry we don't speak: " + rc.preferredLocale());
});
The main method acceptableLocales will return the ordered list of locales the user understands, if you're only interested in the user prefered locale then the helper: preferredLocale will return the 1st element of the list or null if no locale was provided by the user.
Default 404 Handling
If no routes match for any particular request, Vert.x-Web will signal a 404 error.
This can then be handled by your own error handler, or perhaps the augmented error handler that we supply to use, or if no error handler is provided Vert.x-Web will send back a basic 404 (Not Found) response.
Error handling
As well as setting handlers to handle requests you can also set handlers to handle failures in routing.
Failure handlers are used with the exact same route matching criteria that you use with normal handlers.
For example you can provide a failure handler that will only handle failures on certain paths, or for certain HTTP methods.
This allows you to set different failure handlers for different parts of your application.
Here's an example failure handler that will only be called for failure that occur when routing to GET requests to paths that start with /somepath/:
Route route = router.get("/somepath/*");
route.failureHandler(frc -> {
 // This will be called for failures that occur
 // when routing requests to paths starting with
 // '/somepath/'
});
Failure routing will occur if a handler throws an exception, or if a handler calls fail specifying an HTTP status code to deliberately signal a failure.
If an exception is caught from a handler this will result in a failure with status code 500 being signalled.
When handling the failure, the failure handler is passed the routing context which also allows the failure or failure code to be retrieved so the failure handler can use that to generate a failure response.
Route route1 = router.get("/somepath/path1/");
route1.handler(routingContext -> {
 // Let's say this throws a RuntimeException
 throw new RuntimeException("something happened!");
});
Route route2 = router.get("/somepath/path2");
route2.handler(routingContext -> {
 // This one deliberately fails the request passing in the status code
 // E.g. 403 - Forbidden
 routingContext.fail(403);
});
// Define a failure handler
// This will get called for any failures in the above handlers
Route route3 = router.get("/somepath/*");
route3.failureHandler(failureRoutingContext -> {
 int statusCode = failureRoutingContext.statusCode();
 // Status code will be 500 for the RuntimeException or 403 for the other failure
 HttpServerResponse response = failureRoutingContext.response();
 response.setStatusCode(statusCode).end("Sorry! Not today");
});
For the eventuality that an error occurs when running the error handler related usage of not allowed characters in status message header, then the original status message will be changed to the default message from the error code. This is a tradeoff to keep the semantics of the HTTP protocol working instead of abruptly creash and close the socket without properly completing the protocol.
Request body handling
The BodyHandler allows you to retrieve request bodies, limit body sizes and handle file uploads.
You should make sure a body handler is on a matching route for any requests that require this functionality.
The usage of this handler requires that it is installed as soon as possible in the router since it needs to install handlers to consume the HTTP request body and this must be done before executing any async call.
router.route().handler(BodyHandler.create());
Getting the request body
If you know the request body is JSON, then you can use getBodyAsJson, if you know it's a string you can use getBodyAsString, or to retrieve it as a buffer use getBody.
Limiting body size
To limit the size of a request body, create the body handler then use setBodyLimit to specifying the maximum body size, in bytes. This is useful to avoid running out of memory with very large bodies.
If an attempt to send a body greater than the maximum size is made, an HTTP status code of 413 - Request Entity Too Large, will be sent.
There is no body limit by default.
Merging form attributes
By default, the body handler

The Whales, They Give Themselves is an intimate life history of Harry Brower, Sr. (_PHONE_), an Inupiaq whaling captain, artisan, and community leader from Barrow, Alaska. In a life that spanned the profound cultural and economic changes of the twentieth century, Brower's vast knowledge of the natural world made him an essential contributor to the Native and scientific communities of the North. His desire to share his insights with future generations resulted in a series of conversations with friend and oral historian Karen Brewster, who weaves Harry's stories with cultural and historical background into this innovative and collaborative oral biography.
Brower was deeply committed to Native culture, and his life history is a moving expression of the Inupiaq way of life. He was also influential in traditionally non-Native arenas in which Native and non-Native values sometimes collided. Acting as a mediator between Inupiaq whalers and non-Native scientists, Brower communicated a vast understanding of bowhead whales and whaling that became the basis for a scientific research program and helped protect Inupiaq subsistence whaling. He was a central architect of the Arctic Slope Regional Corporation boundaries, and served for over twenty years as a consultant to scientists at the Naval Arctic Research Laboratory. Brower's role in this collaborative research serves as one of the earliest and best examples of how scientists and Native experts can work together to advance knowledge. Such approaches are now promoted by researchers around the world.
The Whales, They Give Themselves not only conveys Brower's life story, but also is a cross-cultural journey of wisdom and friendship. Whereas academic oral historians once strove to erase the presence of the interviewer in the name of objectivity, Brewster recognizes the influence her specific relationship with Brower had on the way he narrated his life. This volume is a major contribution to our understanding of northern peoples, and a testament to the immense value of collaborative oral history.

Australian Medicare Number Validation
Australian Medicare card numbers consist of 11 digits structured as follows:
First digit should be in the range 2-6
Digits are weighted (1,3,7,9,1,3,7,9)
Issue Number
Indicates how many times the card has been issued
Individual Reference Number (IRN)
The IRN appears on the left of the cardholder's name on the medicare card and distinguishes the individuals named on the card.
The IRN is not always considered part of the card number, but it is essential that it be included on Medicare claim forms.
It can be hard to find a definitive reference to the algorithm on the Medicare site. At the time of writing it could be found in this document:

Deadly Sea Snakes: Alike But Not The Same
December 3, 2012
The lethal beaked sea snake is actually two species which separately evolved to give identical snakes.
AsianScientist (Dec. 3, 2012) – Researchers from Australia and Indonesia have discovered that the lethal beaked sea snake (Enhydrina schistosa) is actually two species with separate evolutions, which resulted in identical snakes.
Senior author Associate Professor Bryan Fry from The University of Queensland said the Australian and Asian beaked sea snakes were originally thought to be from the same species, however, in comparing their DNA, the research team had found these two snakes were unrelated.
Analyses of five independent mitochondrial and nuclear loci for populations spanning Australia, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka indicate that this 'species' actually consists of two distinct lineages in Asia and Australia that are not closest relatives.
The finding, published recently in the journal Molecular Phylogenetics & Evolution, is an example of a situation where two species evolved separately but ended up looking similar – a phenomenon known as convergent phenotypic evolution, says Fry.
Convergence in the characteristic 'beaked' morphology of these species is probably associated with the wide gape required to accommodate their spiny prey, he explained, as both species occupy the same specialized habitat of silt-filled shallows of tropical estuaries throughout the Asian and Australian regions.
The beaked sea snake is also responsible for the large majority of recorded deaths and injuries from sea snake bites.
Fortunately, the only available sea snake anti-venom available – raised against the Malaysian E. schistosa – is also effective against the new Australian species.
"This mixup could have been medically catastrophic, since the CSL sea snake antivenom is made using the venom from the Asian snake based on the assumption that it was the same species," said Fry. "Luckily, the antivenom is not only very effective against the Australian new species but actually against all sea snakes since they all share a very stream-lined fish-specific venom."
The Asian snake will retain the original name Enhydrina shistosa, while its Australian counterpart has been elevated to species status and is provisionally referred to as Enhydrina zweifeli, which identifies the region in New Guinea where it is found.
The new snake will be placed in a separate genus to the true Enhydrina genus in a follow-up publication that will resolve the complex higher order relationships of sea snakes.

Testosterone is an androgen, or male hormone responsible for most male sexual characteristics. Testosterone is produced in the testicles and regulated by glands in the brain. A lower testosterone level may result in loss of interest in sex, difficulty getting an erection, fertility problems, tiredness and lack of energy, depression, loss of bone density which leads to brittle bones, muscle weakness and loss of body hair. It supports the body's natural growth hormone which keeps our body youthful and energized.
Women need a bit of testosterone to ward off excess estrogen which can lead to depression, weight gain, hormonal changes, or just an overall imbalance of sex hormones in the body.
Testosterone levels below 300 nanograms per deciliter to indicate a deficiency as per the American Urological Association.
It is traditionally believed that a meat-based diet including meat, fish and milk helps increase in testosterone levels. However, a new study shows that Men who follow plant-based diets have testosterone levels that are basically the same as the levels in men who eat meat. "We found that a plant-based diet was associated with normal testosterone levels, levels that are the same as occur in men who eat a traditional diet that includes more meat," says Ranjith Ramasamy, M.D., an associate professor and Director of Reproductive Urology at the University of Miami Health System.
The main ingredients which increase testosterone include amino acids (protein), zinc, B vitamins, omega-3 fatty acids, and an overall anti-inflammatory diet. This can be derived even from Vegetarian food. At the same time, one has to distinguish between healthy and non-healthy plant-based foods like soda, chips and juice.
In addition to supporting healthy testosterone levels, plant-based diets have proven to reduce the risks of many conditions, including hypertension, heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, and many cancers.
Some of the Vegetarian food for increasing testosterone levels include Pumpkin seeds, coconut, Maca root, chia seeds, ginger, pomegranate, Leafy green vegetables, Extra-virgin olive oil and onion. Processed plant-based foods and alcohol should be avoided.

SIMUL8 Tip – Copy All Results to Excel
There may be times where you want to take all of your results from your simulation and analyze them using a different program such as Excel. In SIMUL8 it is really easy to copy all your results to Excel, to give you added flexibility for results analysis, or perhaps if you want to share your results with non-SIMUL8 users.
Here's how to do it:
1. After running the simulation open the Results Manager in the 'Home' menu.
2. Click on the tab for 'All Object Results'.
This tab shows all of the results that have been collected for each object in the simulation
3. Click on the tab for 'KPIs'.
4. Click on the button with the plus symbol – this is an alternative way of adding results to the KPIs list and will allow you to select all of the results of selected objects.
5. Highlight all of the objects listed by using the 'Shift' key.
6. Click on the 'Add all results' button to add all of the results of the selected objects to the listed KPIs.
7. Click on this button once to copy all of the results to the clipboard
8. Paste into Excel.
It's really that simple, and this provides you with the added flexibility of being able to view, analyze and work with your results outwith SIMUL8.

Swiss Avenue Historic District is a neighborhood located in Old East Dallas, Dallas, Texas. You will see some of the most beautiful residential architecture in this neighborhood during the early 20th century. The Swiss Avenue Historic District boundaries include some parts of Dallas' earliest streets such as Bryan Street, Beacon Street, La Vista Drive, Swiss Avenue, Bryan Parkway, and Swiss Avenue. In this article, we are going to know more about the history of this charming and notable neighborhood.
After some Belgian, French, and Swiss settlers, known as the La Reunion Colony, did not succeed in making an entire community on the west side of Trinity River in 1855, most of them decided to remain in Dallas. They settled on the east side of the Trinity River to have a fresh start. Some of the people who chose to settle on the west side of Trinity River were Swiss businessmen Jacob Nussbaumer and Henry Boll. They both settled in 1859, and they both had adjoining properties located along White Rock Road, and they later renamed it as Swiss Avenue, as a nod to their native country.
After Jacob Nussbaumer's and Henry Boll finished their service in Colonel Nat Buford's 19th Texas Cavalry in 1865, they subdivided and sold parts of their property located along Swiss Avenue to some of La Reunion settlers and Dallas' new wave of European immigrants.
In 1873, when the Texas & Pacific Railroad crossed the Houston & Texas Central, businesses started to develop and thrive around the intersection. Not only that, but the residential development to the east also had the chance to be extended. That is why from 1882 to 1889, a small and independent town of East Dallas was established.
In 1851 brothers Robert and Collett S. Munger made a lot of money in the cotton gin industry. That is why they began to develop the north side of Old East Dallas, and they made the Swiss avenue as its centerpiece. After developing the land, the Munger brothers advertised the location as the most desirable and beautiful residential district in Southland, and hailed Swiss Avenue as the upscale core of the Munger Place development.
The Munger brothers wanted to promote Munger Place as a strictly high class and luxurious residential district. That is why they decided to establish Munger Place as the first deed-restricted neighborhood in Texas. Aside from that, they also implemented rules which states that houses on Swiss Avenue should be full two stories, each house should cost at least $10,000, and they should have a uniform setback of sixty feet. Because it was designed as a landscape boulevard for the most expensive homes, Swiss Avenue was hailed as Dallas's silk-stocking district. The neighborhood has its collection of Tudor, Neoclassical, Spanish Eclectic, Colonial Revival, Prairie style, and Italian Renaissance houses built and designed by well-known architects such as Hal Thomson, Lang & Witchell, and C.E. Barglebaugh. In 1900s, Swiss Avenue was the representation of the grandeur of Dallas's professional and social elite.
Today, the Swiss Avenue Historic District has about 200 houses situated on portions of Bryan Parkway, Swiss Avenue, Bryan Street, Live Oak Street, and La Vista Avenue. Homes in this neighborhood all have sweeping lawns, an historical architecture, significant setbacks, and oak-lined streets. Swiss Avenue Historic District is now known to reflect the prestige and graciousness of a bygone era. We can now appreciate the beauty of these houses thanks to Swiss Avenue residents' efforts during the 1970s. Because they all worked hard to ensure the houses are preserved in their neighborhood. In fact, the Swiss Avenue Historical District is Dallas' first historic district after the foundation of the Historic Preservation League. Almost all of the house in the Swiss Avenue Historic District has been fully renovated. That is why the neighborhood was able to earn the title of being one of the most beautiful intact communities of the early 20th-century residential architecture in the United States of America.

A difference equation derived from a physical model of a stiff membrane is used to simulate the acoustic signal produced by a drum head. The physical model was extended beyond the classical model by the inclusion of terms which represent viscous damping, air loading, and time-varying tension. Fixed phase vocoder and tracking spectral analysis show that the simulated sound contains correct theoretical frequencies when the damping and stiffness are set to zero. As stiffness is increased, the partial frequencies increase as predicted by plate theory. Simulations of zero (vacuum) and typical air loads show no significant changes. As a means of corroboration, measurements were made on an actual drum head mounted in a vacuum chamber. The drum signal was generated by striking the drumhead with a plastic tip mounted on a solenoid core and measured with an accelerometer mounted upon the drumhead. Spectral analysis results for this signal are qualitatively similar to the simulation measurements although they differ in some details.

Monoprinting with Angela Matera
Monoprinting is a form of printmaking that has images or lines that can only be made once, unlike most printmaking, where there are multiple originals.
There are many techniques of monoprinting.
Monoprints are known as the most painterly method among the printmaking techniques; it is essentially a printed painting. The characteristic of this method is that no two prints are alike. The beauty of this medium is also in its spontaneity and its combination of printmaking, painting and drawing media.

Notes on this piece
Add to a playlist
"Friction" and "interaction" are the central ideas of epic abrasion. Friction represents the resistance of two surfaces scraping each other and the tension between contrasting musical materials. A sense of friction also occurs when the relation between the performance effort and the audible outcome is unbalanced. The interaction within the ensemble resembles a group dialogue in everyday life, where the focus is constantly shifting among the participants. Everyone can be active independently at the same time, but they can also form different groups opposing each other or a few active participants can be exchanging intensely while the others are passively present. Throughout the work, just as in life, interaction is developed and kept alive by the notion of friction. The friction can appear in different forms, such as unspoken expectations, thoughts that are presented verbally but only reveal a fraction of its original meaning, or extreme outbursts of anger suppressed by conversation etiquette. While exploring the musical friction, each instrumental voice inhibits a role, just as an actor in a play would elaborate with different levels of expression. Friction, as musical material, ranges from the barely audible frictionless sounds such as long streams of air through the wind instruments and light scratches of a metal bowl rim to the strong friction-based musical materials such as the heavy scratch noises in the strings and the rattling timbre of the prepared piano in the lowest register. The blackboard manifests the synergy of friction and interaction by acting both as a messenger and a sound object during the piece. The percussionist, functioning as a "filter", interprets the noise from the performance space as well as the other musicians' playing and creates messages on the blackboard. These are instantly interpreted by the ensemble in an ongoing, circular feedback dialogue. As a contrast, the strict notation is used in other sections of the piece to focus on instants of abrasion and develop them into longer sequences of obstinate dialogues, perceived in the relief of layered timbres with shifting intensity.

Who wrote the first book on this planet?
The Diamond Sutra is the oldest surviving book that can be verifiably dated, but the first book published isn't known. It is probable that it hasn't survived the centuries.
Currently, the writer of the first book is not known. However, the first writings were associated with the Chinese. During this time, they used blocks of wood and rice papers for printed literature.

When we looked at how native code and ActionScript communicate in a native extension, we saw that native code is mostly called and talked to and has a limited number of ways to respond or send data back. These are:
- Returning a FREResult object from a call to FREFunction.
- Using output parameters in a FREFunction.
- Sending an event to ActionScript.
In this article we are focusing on number 3: how events are sent from Java to ActionScript.
Events from Java to ActionScript are asynchronous
We already saw why in the post about events from C to ActionScript, but I'll repeat it here, as it's important:
- there isn't a synchronous way for native code to call an ActionScript function via the AIR Java API the way that ActionScript makes direct calls to native code. When information needs to be sent to ActionScript outside a call that ActionScript initiated, your option is to send an event that ActionScript will receive asynchronously.
- you can send an event to ActionScript form any thread in your native code and it's delivered on AIR's single main thread. This is the only AIR Java API call you are allowed to make outside the main thread.
In Java dispatchStatusEventAsync() is a method of the FREContext class, which represents your Extension Context.
public void dispatchStatusEventAsync( String code, String level )
- code is a string, which you set. Use it to identify the event you are sending, for example "SPEECH_RECOGNITION_EVENT".
- level is another string that you set. Use this to send more detailed information about the event to ActionScript, for example "Speech recognition results" or "No results found".
How this is received by ActionScript
On the ActionScript side the target of the event is the instance of flash.externalExtensionContext, which was passed to FREDispatchStatusEventAsync. Wondering where it comes from? Read the next section.
The event's type is flash.events.StatusEvent. You'll notice that, among other things, StatusEvent has the following two properties:
- code : String
- level : String
See how this maps to the information sent from the Java side?
A call to dispatchStatusEventAsynch() from your Java code:
"This is the message CODE",
"This is the message LEVEL" );
will be received in your ActionScript code in the form of a StatusEvent in a StatusEvent.STATUS handler that you provide:
private var m_extensionContext : flash.external.ExtensionContext;
m_extensionContext.addEventListener( StatusEvent.STATUS, onStatusEvent );
private function onStatusEvent( _event : StatusEvent ) : void
trace( _event.code );
trace( _event.level );
This will print out:
This is the message CODE
This is the message LEVEL
Here's a definition of Extension Context, if you need a reminder.
Have a look at how events are sent from C to ActionScript.
Next we'll see what are the Extension Context Initializer and Finalizer.
Then we will see the order of calls for all these initializers and finalizers.
Over to you
Why do you code in Java? No, seriously.

A little interesting about space life.
Have you ever wondered what may be the purpose of the moon? Well, the moon is the shiny beacon that lights up the night as the sun lights up the day. This amber body is quite shy and doesn't always show itself, but when it does, the moon's brilliance overpowers the darkness. The surface of the moon inspires astronomers around the globe who religiously watch as our incandescent orb passes serenely through its natural cycle, but if you are an avid planet observer you will come to realise that the reflecting light from the moon through the telescope lens may interfere with your ability to clearly view even our closest planets. For this reason many planet watches believe the new moon cycle is the perfect time to catch a glimpse of another world.

New Moon in Scorpio. When Sun and Moon are in Scorpio, the most intensely felt sign of the zodiac with its deep undercurrents of passion, determination and will power it is not a time to go to sleep. Scorpio energy is driven by instinctual desires, deep unconscious motivations for control, domination and power. Scorpios are complex, charismatic and interesting people. They usually excel at where they choose to point their energy and you will always feel alive and kept on your toes around them. They will never be boring, but always a little mysterious and maybe feel just a little out of reach.
There is another aspect from the moon that is also going to improve your success and that is the moon rise and moon set. As a fishing angler you already know that some of the best times to fish are early in the morning and late in the evening the rising and the setting of the sun. Well the moon rise and moon set affects a fish's activity in the same way and since the moon has such a much stronger pull on the earth its effect is even more dramatic then the sunrise and sunset.

Take the 2-minute tour ×
Let $f(x,y)=0$ and $g(x,y)=0$ be bivariate polynomial equations where the polynomials have the same degree, say, $N\geq 3$. Furthermore, both of them have the same terms but different coefficients. For example, $f(x,y) = a_1x^2y^3 + a_2xy^2 + a_3$ and $g(x,y) = b_1x^2y^3 + b_2xy^2 + b_3$. How may common roots of $f(x,y)=0$ and $g(x,y)=0$ are there? I am not interested in finding the common roots but the number. Can Bézout's Theorem help?
Thanks a lot.
share|improve this question
Bezout's theorem would imply that if $f,g$ had no common factors, then the number of common roots is at most $N^2$. – Mohan May 22 '13 at 17:21
And the resultant $R(f,g)$ would decide if $f$ and $g$ had any common roots at all (in an extension field). Are the polynomials over a field? – Dietrich Burde May 22 '13 at 18:37
Hm, what if you compute the Gröbner basis for such varieties? Do you get anything interesting? (This would be quite nice to experiment with a bit, to get some feeling for the problem). – Per Alexandersson May 22 '13 at 20:03
Since you fix the terms, the Bernstein-Kushnirenko theorem (or Bernstein-Khovanskii-Kushnirenko) would be more precise than Bezout's theorem. – quim May 22 '13 at 20:08
I don't think much mathematical background is needed. The $\Delta_i$ is just the convex hull of the set of exponents of the terms involved in the $p_i$, inside $\mathbb{R}^2$, so in your case they are both equal to the triangle with vertices (2,3), (1,2), (0,0). The coefficients don't matter. Vol denotes "mixed volume" but I think that when all $\Delta_i$ are equal, this is just ordinary volume. Have a look at arXiv:0812.4688. BTW, just as Bezout, this only gives an upper bound on the number of solutions, which is the exact number if the coefficients are "general enough". – quim May 23 '13 at 8:58
1 Answer 1
I reread the previous posts. The answers are very interesting but the question is really hilarious. When we have the same terms in each equation (with different coefficients in a field $K$) then the problem is essentially a linear one. For instance, here, we obtain (generically) a sole solution in $K$ for $x^2y^3,xy^2$. Then a value for $x^2y^4$, then a value for $y$, then a value for $x$.
The moral of the story is that some trivial matters can lead to exciting discussions and take time before downgrading certain issues to stackexchange!

The problem is linear only in the sense that finding the roots of the characteristic polynomial of a matrix is linear (that is, not at all). – S. Carnahan Sep 21 '13 at 13:11
Dear Carnahan, I don't understand one word you write. We have a linear system of $2$ equations in the $2$ unknowns $x^uy^v,x^ry^s$. Then we obtain (generically) one solution in $K$ ($x^uy^v=?,x^ry^s=?$). We deduce easily (according to the values of $u,v,r,s$) the solutions in $x,y$, using $p^{th}$ roots. Can you solve a characteristic polynomial with radicals? – loup blanc Sep 21 '13 at 14:02
Moreover, and it is funny, the second part of the calculation is essentially: solving a linear system in $log(x),log(y)$.:) – loup blanc Sep 21 '13 at 14:50
Given the statement of the problem, you always get two linear equations. If there are more terms in the polynomials $f$ and $g$, you will get more unknowns. Your method only seems to work when you have 2 unknowns. – S. Carnahan Sep 21 '13 at 14:52

Moving the Offline Folders Cache
by Mitch Tulloch [Published on 14 April 2011 / Last Updated on 10 Feb. 2010]
How do you move the CSC folder to another location on a Windows 7 computer?
How do you move the CSC folder to another location on a Windows 7 computer?
The default location of the Offline Folders cache is %systemroot%\csc. If you need to move this cache to another location on your computer for some reason, follow these steps:
1. Set the following REG_DWORD registry key to a value of 1:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CSC\Parameters\MigrationParamters
Doing this ensures that all items in the cache are migrated (the default behavior is to migrate only dirty items).
2. Run the Windows Easy Transfer wizard. Once the data has been scanned, a Customize link is displayed. Click this link and make sure that Windows Settings is checked for all items displayed in the list.
3. Once you have collected the data, set the following String registry key to specify the new cache location:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CSC\Parameters\CacheLocation
For example, to move the cache to a folder named CSCCache on your D: drive, specify the following value:
\??\D:\CSCCache
4. Now reboot your computer, run the Easy Transfer wizard again and apply the previously gathered files. Then reboot one more time when prompted by the wizard.
If you have feedback concerning this tip, please email me. And be sure to check out my website!

How to Make Default Button?
csharp United States
 - 10 years ago
 hellow friends,
 can enybody know how to make a default button so that when user enter some text in textbox and then pess Enter then button_click event should fires.
 if any body have idea then pls help me.
 Nitin
 - 10 years ago
 Each form has an AcceptButton property and a CancelButton property. Whichever button you assign to the AcceptButton property will be "pressed" when the user hits the ENTER key and whichever you assign to the CancelButton property will be "pressed" when the user hits the ESC key.
 Note that when you assign a button to the CancelButton property, its DialogResult property is set to Cancel by default. This means that if the ESC key is pressed or the Cancel button is clicked, the form's DialogResult property will be set to Cancel, it will be closed automatically and, if it was called using ShowDialog, that function will return Cancel.
 When you assign a button to the AcceptButton property, its DialogResult property is unchanged. If you want the form to close automatically when it is clicked, you should set it's DialogResult property to an appropriate value, which would usually be OK. If you want to do some processing before closing the form, you can still do this in the button's Click event handler. If you may or may not want to close the form automatically, you should leave the button's DialogResult property set to None and only set the form's DialogResult property to something like OK if you want to close the form. Note that whenever a form's DialogResult property is set, like when a button that has its own DialogResult property set is clicked, the current method is completed and the form is closed. If it was called using ShowDialog, that function will return the value of the form's DialogResult property.

 jmcilhinney,
 tanks for replying but i want to have default button in a usercontrol, but the usercontrol didnot have Accept Button property so what should i do to do that.
 i think u understood my problem, if posiible reply soon.
 Nitin.
 - 10 years ago
 If your UserControl exposes that button publicly, like through a property or the actual variable, you should be able to assign the button to the form's AcceptButton property. If you want to create a default button for the control itself, I'd say you would have to use events to trap the ENTER key and then click the appropriate button.
 - 10 years ago
 Dear jmcilhinney,
 thanks a lot, i has to use multiple usercontrol in a single form using tab control so if i made all buttons public then i have problem when to use which control's button as default button. but i use the keyUP property of each texbox on each usercontrol and look for Enter Kye, if prssed then the button_click() fired from code,
 this might not look good technic but it solves my problem hence thanks once again.if u have any other goog way to do that then let me know.
 thanking you,
 Nitin

 You can assign any button to the form's AcceptButton property at any time, so why don't you just change the default button as each different TabPage is selected?

 if your OK button is buttonOK
 then write below code in the initialisation of your dialogbox.
 this.AcceptButton = buttonOK;
 Or you may do this from GUI workspace, simple highlight the Dialogbox and accept button value
 to the AcceptButton property of the dialogbox.
 Similiarly you can assign cancel button as well by assigning button value to this.CancelButton property.
 Hope this helps.

 What about the scenario where you are using MasterPages? Since the Form is part of the masterpage and not each page that is using the masterpage, you can't set the form.acceptbutton. How would you make the Enter key the default for a submit button on each different page that is using the MasterPage. The only thing I've found so far is to just Javascript, but....

Bioperine Promotes Maximum Absorption
TopPreviousNext
Date: February 06, 2012 06:19 PM
Author: Darrell Miller (_EMAIL_)
Subject: Bioperine Promotes Maximum Absorption
Bioperine
Bioperine is an extract from black pepper that contains about 95 percent piperine. Piperine is an alkaloid, the active substance that contributes to nutrients bioavailability and absorption. Bioperine can be combined with other specific nutrients to form different nutritional supplements that can be used for both animal and human consumption. Black pepper is mostly harvested before ripening, dried in the sun and then the extraction process begins.
How and why use of Bioperine promotes maximum vitamin absorption
Recent research has shown that the use of Bioperine, whose main constituent is piperine, increases thermogenic activity in the body. Thermogenesis is an accelerated metabolic process that takes place in the body cells in which conversion of glucose into energy takes place. An increase in absorption of Discount minerals such as selenium and vitamins such as vitamin A has been witnessed to be triggered by the use of Bioperine. Piperine works through initiating the release of catecholamines hormones that stimulate thermogenesis. However, the nutrients should presently available during this time since; the process takes place for a short duration.
Piperine improves the necessary conditions of the intestines thus enhancing vitamins absorption. It alters the intestinal epithelial cell wall making it more permeable to vitamins and minerals. In addition, absorption of protein supplements such as those used by people who are on a dietary weight loss program is also increased. Several researchers have also shown that Bioperine has other benefits in the body, these includes the antibacterial properties and anti allergy properties.
Experiments prove that use of Bioperine increases vitamin and mineral absorption
Several studies on how much piperine promotes nutrients absorption have been carried out hitherto. For instance, an experiment was carried out on the effect of absorption of beta-carotene, vitamin B-6 and selenium which are fat soluble vitamin, water soluble vitamin and mineral in the form of selenomethionine respectively in the presence and absence of piperine. The experiment showed that absorption of these vitamins and mineral selenium increased appreciably when taken with Bioperine. There was 60 percent increase in absorption of beta-carotene and vitamin B-6 while 30 percent absorption was noticed for selenium. The experiment was carried out using 5 milligrams of Bioperine. Another experiment also showed a 30 to 200 percent increase in the absorption of Coenzyme Q-10.
Bioperine is the only piperine product to undergo comprehensive health tests and to be patented for the effect of increasing nutrients absorption, more so vitamins and minerals. By creating metabolic changes that require vitamins and minerals, Bioperine creates a nutritional need and then follows by increasing the nutrients bioavailability to meet the need. However, the process takes place in a short period. It is therefore advisable to co-administer minerals and vitamins with Bioperine so that they will be available during the right time for absorption. Unfortunately, research has shown that taking black pepper in its natural form does not yield the same results as those of taking Bioperine. This is mainly because the bioavailability of piperine is not that high in the natural form. Finally, antibacterial and anti allergy properties of Bioperine diversifies its application in medication.

How Does Taurine Help the Brain?

Subject: How Does Taurine Help the Brain?
Taurine is an amino acid often added to energy drinks. There have been several theories on how taurine affects brain chemicals and improve cognitive function. For many years, it has been compared to caffeine due to its effects on the human brain that appear to enhance mood. Its exact mechanisms of action remain a mystery to the scientific community, but recent studies are believed to be closing in.
It has long been known that taurine crosses the blood brain barrier, allowing it to exert some effects on several neurotransmitters found in the central nervous system. It has been tied to the alleviation of many mental illnesses, such as epilepsy, post traumatic stress disorder, clinical depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety, making it the subject of a number of studies in the past few years.
Rebalances Brain Chemicals
It has been postulated that taurine influences the activities of neurotransmitters in the brain, but only recently has brain scientists been able to actually track its activities in the brain. A team of researchers at Cornell University managed to find a site for the neurological activity of taurine, with initial results pointing to its relationship with gamma the neurotransmitter aminobutyric acid, or GABA. The researchers do not Discount the possibility that taurine may even have a receptor of its own.
Whether taurine interacts with brain chemicals is no longer debatable as it creates homeostasis in the central nervous system. It acts on receptors that the researchers discovered to be the same receptors present in GABAergic mechanisms. That being said, scientists remain inconclusive as to how its interaction with GABA receptors provides energy-boosting benefits as it is marketed in the food and drug industries.
Prevents Neuron Damage
The scientific community is convinced that taurine has neuroprotective properties. High levels of taurine in the brain have been observed to protect brain tissues from cerebral ischemia. Taurine has been linked to many metabolic pathways that are known to promote neurological health, such as the activation of glycine receptors and the regulation of enzymes called cysteine-dependent aspartate-directed proteases.
In addition, taurine serves as antioxidants that protect nerve cells from cellular damage brought on by oxidative stress. The presence of taurine within cells reduces damage from calcium excesses and increases mitochondrial events. For decades, supplementation of taurine has benefited sufferers of brain ischemia, epileptic seizures, panic attacks, anxiety symptoms, and even alcohol withdrawal.
Enhances Cognitive Function
Taurine has already been associated with physiological functions the hypothalamus controls, such as sleep-wake cycle and responses to fatigue. In several laboratory studies, administrations of taurine by way of intraperitoneal injection have successfully induced social interaction in animal subjects. It is one of the amino acids that affect cognitive development, especially in children. While it is one of the most abundant amino acids in the brain, it is depleted as we age, making supplementation a good option.

Subject: Antioxidants and your health
There is an impressive amount of scientific evidence supporting the health benefits of supplementing with a wide variety of antioxidants. Consequently, there are many health practitioners who have begun to recommend high dietary intakes of these crucial nutrients in order to prevent against oxidative stress. It was anticipated over two decades ago by leading researchers that high-dose supplementation with antioxidants is developing a significant role in the prevention and treatment of a lot of today's common illnesses. It should be noted that antioxidants do not work in isolation. When an antioxidant neutralizes a free radical, it, itself, is oxidized and must be regenerated by another antioxidant before it can be used again. Because of this, it is crucial to supplement with a wide variety of antioxidants, in order to reflect what actually occurs in nature.
Vitamin C, an aqueous-phase antioxidant, is the main guard against oxidative attack in the extra-cellular matrix, as well as within the cytoplasm of the cell. Vitamin C happens to be a substrate for eight different enzyme systems that are involved in various cellular functions. Among these functions are collagen synthesis, ATP synthesis in the mitochondria, and hormone biosynthesis. Its main antioxidant partners are vitamin E and beta carotene, both of which help to regenerate vitamin C.
Of all the antioxidants, it seems as if vitamin E offers the greatest protection against heart disease because of its ability to protect the cardiovascular system from oxidative damage. It is lipid-soluble, making it an important component of the cell membrane, where it works to protect the cell against lipid peroxidation and control oxidation-induced inflammatory events. Recently, the gamma tocopherol form of vitamin E has shown a great deal of promise in its ability to reduce the risk of several oxidative stress related disease.
Beta-carotene is a member of a diverse group of photosynthetic pigments. It plays a huge role in human nutrition. As an antioxidant, it possesses a double-bond structure that allows it to react effectively with single oxygen radicals, absorbing and diffusing their energy. Beta-carotene also acts as a precursor for vitamin A by supplying a portion of the body's requirement for the vitamin. This act alone plays a central role in the chemistry of vision. Beta-carotene and

To select all buildings that fall into a selected circular buffer with a 2000 radius you need this command:
SELECT * FROM Buildings WHERE ST_DWithin(geom, (SELECT ST_GeomFromText('POINT(0 0)', 26918)), 2000);
See this, for more examples.
I've gave you already the right answer!
To prove you I'll show the tests I've done before answering to you, on my test data (my SRID is 31700):
If you want to see the selected points in QGIS then you need to follow the images bellow:
So, I think that your center point coordinates are not [0, 0] and if you'll follow carefully my demonstration you'll obtain the proper results!
My tests showed me that it is possible a user to keep its data in a PostGIS table with the 4326 SRID, and to obtain a proper result, like above, using its own SRID (e.g. 26918).
In this case one my use this command:
SELECT * FROM Buildings WHERE ST_DWithin(ST_Transform(geom, 26918), (SELECT ST_GeomFromText('POINT(0 0)', 26918)), 2000);
Yet, in this case, I've noticed that the selected points are still in the 4326 SRID. Therefore, if you create a table based on this query, eventually, you need to update the table SRID to your own.
Here's what I've done (using my test data) prior to see the selected point in QGIS:
But, the newly created table has the 4326 SRID:
Therefore, we need to change it to our own:
(I've verified my solution, considering the buildings are points, polygons and multipolygons, and didn't noticed any other problems than those already presented here.)

Smoke may be visible along the Dalton Highway
FAIRBANKS, Alaska – In mid- to late October, the Bureau of Land Management's Fairbanks District and Alaska Fire Service personnel will burn woody debris piles near the Dalton Highway at Mileposts 62 and 180 to reduce the risk of wildfire to communities and facilities, and to provide a safe space for firefighters to suppress fires in the future.
"Burning these piles this fall is an important part of ongoing work to dispose of brush cleared during maintenance of public and administrative facilities to provide for public and BLM staff safety," said Geoff Beyersdorf, Fairbanks district manager. "We appreciate your patience with smoke that may come from the project."
These prescribed fire burns help to dispose of woody debris from campgrounds and BLM administrative sites along the highway. The burns are planned to begin as early as October 17 but could occur anytime until the end of the month. Ignition will only require one day for each pile, but residual smoke can be expected in the areas for several days following ignition. To help minimize the impact of smoke on communities and highway travelers, the specific timing of ignition will depend on favorable weather and fuel moisture conditions. Crews will be on site for the duration of the burn.
Smoke from the two burns may be visible to motorists on the Dalton Highway, as well as from the communities of Yukon Crossing, Coldfoot, and Wiseman. Most of the smoke will dissipate during the day, but some nighttime smoke may remain in valley bottoms as temperatures drop. The public is reminded to not call emergency services even though smoke may be visible.
Please see the attached map, Dalton Highway Fuel Treatment Locations, for the locations of the prescribed burn.
Prescribed fire smoke may affect your health. For more information, please visit the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation website: _URL_

An abecedarian is a person learning the alphabet, a beginner; a person teaching the alphabet or the basic elements of a subject. [Webster's New World Dictionary] An abecedary is their practice medium.
The oldest known abecedary is the Tel Zayit abecedary. It is confidently dated to the 10th century BC.

Please have a look at the doc for the Kernel module - _URL_
Unlike Java, Ruby is not limited to Classes as containers of implementations. Modules act as wonderful containers which can be mixed into other classes. When a module is mixed into another class, all its instance methods become instance methods of those class. Since the Kernel module is mixed into the Object class, its methods are therefore available in all Ruby classes.
Please read the following:
- Ruby access control
- Common misunderstanding and clarification about access controls in Ruby
With the risk of duplication, I have to say this:
private in Ruby is not the same as in C++ or Java. Subclasses of a class can call private methods declared in their superclass. In fact, you can call private method of any class using
:send. The only difference between private and protected methods is that private methods can't be called with explicit receivers.
Even the last rule has an exception. If your private method is something like
age=, it can (and has to be) called with
self. Funny, isn't it? :)
UPDATE: (to explain the gist):
talk method which you wrote in your code above is being called on the
main object which is the context for all Ruby programs. It's not being called on the Test class which is why it's not working for your second gist.
In the gist that I have provided,
talk is a private class method which is why it gets executed at the time of class definition. In the same gist, the
talk2 method is an instance method and can only be called from within instance methods. Your example gist didn't work because you were trying to invoke an instance method at the time of defining the class.

Stay Accountable by texting your partner daily – How to make accountability work with a cell phone.
If you feel an accountability relationship hard to maintain, consider using texting to make it easier.
Most all of us carry our cell phones around with us everywhere we go. Funny how we feel 'naked' without our phones!
Picking up the phone and calling sometimes seems intrusive and makes us feel like we are bothering someone, but texting (like email) seems less intrusive. We don't seem to hesitate to send nonsense and links via email or text, so why not something as important as staying accountable?
How does accountability work via text?
- Check in with your partner at least once daily
- Ask them to pray for specific items such as stressful or heavy temptations that may be ahead in your day
- When you are under heavy temptation, text them immediately – they can send up prayers immediately on your behalf
- If you fail text them and confess. A phone call should follow after they get your message
- Celebrate victories during your day letting them know you came through
- Offer encouragement by sharing quotes or verses that have spoken to you
- At the end of the day tell them how you did and rate your day
Staying in contact with your partner daily instead of every few days or weekly will greatly help both of your walks.
These are just a few examples of how to have an accountability relationship via text. Try this out with your partner and let me know how it is working for you.
