LightApp is an app designed to make home electricity consumption a transparent act rather than a black box. By using LightApp, we will be able to control and manage our electricity usage.
The app connects to the different power outlets in the house, monitors each device, and provides recommendations for better usage and savings of electricity.
Context: Graduate Project
Tools Used: Sketch, Illustrator, XD, Photoshop
The Problem
Unlike other financial aspects of our lives, the electricity budget remains a black-box that is almost impossible to control and predict. With so many variables in the equation the average user finds themselves surprised by the end of every month.
Additionally, for many young adults who share apartments with others, splitting the electricity bill evenly course an out of control reality and a fair living situation.
The Goal
To create an application that allows users to monitor their electricity consumption and improve their practices. To allow users to manage and control their budget .
User Research
For this project, I conducted qualitative research that involved user interviews in order to learn better about their habits and pain points. This part involved a small sample of 10 participants. Each of the 10 pre-screened participants was 1:1 interviewed for about 30 min. The interview included both closed quotations (mostly for demographics information) and open-ended ones.
From the thematic data analysis, five themes have emerged:
- The Black Box: All of the participants, whether if they expressed interest in their electricity consumption, had more assumptions than actual knowledge when it comes to how much they consume and how it affects their bill or sustainability efforts.

-Why do we care: For this theme, I came up with two primary motivations -money and sustainability
All of the five participants mentioned money as a motivation to pay attention to electricity consumption. Even the only participant that said she does not care about it mentioned she would like to save money on it if will be possible.
The other reason that was mentioned continuously is sustainability. Even that wasn't the primary motivation; they expressed a will to do better in that domain.
-Consuming X paying Y: The participants with roommate mentioned that they don't know how much each roommate is using electricity, and they split the bill evenly. Some of them said that they actually barley at home; hence they are not using it as much as their friends.
-Practices for saving electricity: Most of the participants mentioned turning off the lights as the first action they do, but more important – wish not to forget to do. A/C and dryer also were mentioned as devices that people can control and limit their consumption if possible. All of them said that they assume it saves electricity, but don't really know if that affects and with what amount.
- Knowing leads to save: When asked if they are budgeting other life activities, all of the participants mentioned that they are trying to keep and be responsible for spending. They also said their habits when it comes to it.
Key Takeaways
"I never know how much the bill will be..."
"I'm trying to save electricity mostly because of the money..."
"I know it helps keeping the Earth..."
"Before i buy something i make research"
" I keep forgetting turning the lights off..."

What is mooring buoy ?
The mooring buoy is designed in a manner that there is a heavier weight located right in the bottom of the sea. This weight is like an anchor holding the buoy afloat in the water. A mooring buoy has loops or chains attached to its top that floats on the water. These chains are provided so that ships or boats can be effectively moored to them.

Pollen Calendar for Fairbanks Alaska
A standard pollen calendar is presented for the benefit of allergic persons, physicians and others in the Fairbanks area. It is a graphic device showing the range of possible atmospheric pollen concentrations for each day of the main pollen season, late April through July, based on data from past years. It can be used for predicting probable daily average concentrations when the weather is relatively warm, dry, and breezy, and it shows when there almost certainly will be some pollen in the air. A core pollen season of prophylactic and clinical urgency is defined from May 10 to June 5, the same as in Anchorage.
The 40 or so species in the vegetation of the Fairbanks area contributing significant quantities of airborne pollen are grouped into five generic (alder, willow, poplar/aspen, birch and spruce) and one family (grass) taxonomic categories, plus an "Other" pollen category comprising the weeds lamb's quarters, plantain and wormwood, among others.
A standard pollen calendar must be based on a multiyear data set encompassing the full range of natural variation in pollen season severity and the timing of pollen release and dispersal. Because the present calendar is based on only six seasons' data, _PHONE_, and most of these are from only one sample location, it is considered prototypical. Continued sampling in Interior Alaska, part of a broader aerobiology research program, will result in a more nearly standard and meaningful pollen calendar.
This calendar shows possible allergenic pollen content of the air for each day based on the past activity. It incorporates data from six years of sampling at the University and two at Fort Wainwright.

Mexican culture is widely established in America's restaurants. Some 11% of restaurants in the United States serve Mexican food, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of data from SafeGraph, which curates information about millions of places of interest around the globe, and the user review site Yelp.
Although especially common in California and Texas, Mexican restaurants are found in a large majority of counties in the U.S. Some 37.2 million people in the U.S. trace their ancestry to Mexico, making Mexican Americans by far the largest Hispanic origin group in the nation.
Pew Research Center conducted this analysis to examine the geographic distribution and characteristics of Mexican restaurants in the United States, including Puerto Rico. We focused on Mexican restaurants because Mexican Americans are the nation's largest Hispanic origin group – and because Mexican food is so widespread in the U.S. Throughout this analysis, we use phrases such as "Mexican restaurants" and "restaurants that serve Mexican food" interchangeably.
To conduct this analysis, we purchased restaurant data from SafeGraph, which curates information about millions of places of interest around the globe. "Restaurants" are places defined by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) as "Restaurants and Other Eating Places" (NAICS code 7225). When we collected this data on March 23, 2023, SafeGraph had records for 788,018 operational restaurants nationwide.
We used SafeGraph's category tags to build an initial list of Hispanic or Latino restaurants in America. This list includes restaurants tagged with the following categories: Argentine, Brazilian, Cuban, Mexican, Peruvian, Portuguese and Spanish, along with catchall categories for "Caribbean food" and "Latin American food."
As part of this analysis, we also matched the restaurants in the SafeGraph data with data from the review site Yelp, using the official Yelp API. We matched the Yelp restaurant identifiers (restaurant name and address) to the corresponding restaurants in the SafeGraph dataset using Python's FastLink package, an implementation of the Fellegi-Sunter probabilistic record linkage model. This matching supplemented the SafeGraph data with more detailed food origin and dish categories, as well as restaurant details such as average price range.
Of the 101,009 restaurants with some sort of Hispanic or Latino food category tag in the SafeGraph data, we were able to find matching entries for 92,718 restaurants (92%) on Yelp. After examining a selection of unmatched restaurants, we found two main reasons why. In some cases, the business did not have any reviews on Yelp (the Yelp API does not return information for businesses with no user-contributed enhancements). In other cases, these restaurants had closed between the time we purchased the SafeGraph data in March 2023 and when we conducted the Yelp matching in September 2023.
After matching the original SafeGraph records with the Yelp data, the final combined dataset included restaurants serving the following types of Hispanic or Latino food: Argentine, Brazilian, Colombian, Cuban, Dominican, Haitian, Honduran, Mexican, Nicaraguan, Peruvian, Portuguese, Puerto Rican, Salvadoran, Spanish, Trinidadian and Venezuelan, as well as categories for "Caribbean food" and "Latin American food." Our analysis of restaurants other than Mexican is limited due to the small number tagged this way.
The data also included tags for specific types of food such as "Tex-Mex," "tacos" and "empanadas." Restaurants with "Tex-Mex" and "tacos" tags are included in the "Mexican food" category, while those tagged with "empanadas" are included in the "Latin American food" category, unless the restaurant is already tagged with a more specific category.
Individual restaurants can be tagged with multiple categories. For instance, a restaurant may include tags for "Mexican food" and "Salvadoran food." These restaurants are counted under all categories listed in the dataset.
County-level population estimates for the U.S. come from table B01003 of the American Community Survey's 5-year 2019 estimates, which include counties and county equivalents (such as Fairbanks North Star Borough, Alaska).
Which states and counties have the most Mexican restaurants?
This analysis finds that 85% of U.S. counties have at least one Mexican restaurant. In turn, the counties that don't have Mexican restaurants tend to have small populations. The 15% of counties without any Mexican restaurants have about 4 million people living in them. That is just 1% of the total U.S. population.
Mexican restaurants are most common in California and Texas. These two states, which are home to a majority of the Mexican American population, have around 40% of all Mexican restaurants in the country: 22% are in California, while 17% are in Texas.
In California, Los Angeles County alone is home to 30% of the state's Mexican restaurants. In Texas, 17% of the state's Mexican restaurants are in Harris County, which includes Houston; 9% each are located in Bexar County, which includes San Antonio, and in Dallas County.
Florida, New York and Illinois also contain large numbers of Mexican restaurants. Each state has 4% of the nationwide total of these restaurants. All told, 51% of all Mexican restaurants in the U.S. are in California, Texas, Florida, New York or Illinois.
Where do Mexican restaurants make up the largest share of eateries?
In addition to examining which parts of the country have the most Mexican restaurants, we also looked at where they make up the largest share of restaurants.
By this metric, Mexican restaurants make up an especially large share of all restaurants in Southwestern states that border Mexico. They account for 22% of all restaurants in New Mexico, 20% in Texas, 18% in Arizona and 17% in California.
At the county level, there are 10 where Mexican restaurants account for more than 33% of all restaurants. Eight of these 10 counties are in Texas, and most are along the U.S.-Mexico border. (This analysis excludes counties that have fewer than 15 restaurants of any type.)
What are some common features of Mexican restaurants?
This analysis finds that 22% of Mexican restaurants nationwide are "fast food" restaurants, 12% specialize in serving tacos, 8% are classified as food trucks or carts, and 6% offer "Tex-Mex" food.
Mexican restaurants also tend to be modestly priced. Among restaurants with pricing data, 61% of Mexican restaurants are rated as one "dollar sign" on Yelp's four-point pricing scale. Less than 1% of all Mexican restaurants nationwide – just 251 in total – have a rating of three or four dollar signs on the Yelp scale. Around a quarter of these more expensive Mexican restaurants are in Los Angeles County; Cook County, where Chicago is located; and New York County, home of Manhattan.
How common are other types of Latino or Hispanic restaurants in the U.S.?
Mexican Americans are the largest Hispanic group in the U.S., but 40% of the nation's Latinos claim another Hispanic origin. Yet our analysis finds that only 2% of U.S. restaurants serve Hispanic or Latino cuisine other than Mexican.
The most common types of non-Mexican Hispanic restaurants include Caribbean, Cuban, "Latin American," Peruvian, Salvadoran and Spanish restaurants. But none makes up more than 1% of restaurants nationwide. (There are other types of Hispanic restaurants in addition to these, but they each make up 0.1% or less of restaurants nationwide and are not included in this analysis.)
Put differently, Mexican restaurants account for the vast majority of Hispanic or Latino restaurants of any kind. And although many non-Mexican restaurants also offer Mexican food, the reverse is less often true. For example, 38% of Salvadoran and 25% of Honduran restaurants in the U.S. also serve Mexican food. But just 3% of Mexican restaurants also serve other kinds of Hispanic or Latino food.
Hispanic or Latino restaurants that are not Mexican are also much less geographically widespread than Mexican restaurants. Fully 85% of U.S. counties have at least one Mexican restaurant, but 29% have some type of Latino or Hispanic restaurant that is not primarily Mexican.
These Latino or Hispanic restaurants make up a relatively large share of restaurants in places like Florida – especially in and around Miami-Dade County – or in New York and New Jersey near New York City. But even in these areas, Mexican restaurants make up for a comparable – and sometimes larger – share of all restaurants than those serving other Hispanic or Latino food.

Opposite to the coast of Lavreotiki at the southern part of Euboekos Bay it is situated the wild and arid island of Makronissos ("the long island" in Greek), or Nissos Elenis (the island of Helen) as it was known in antiquity. During the period of the civil war in Greece and the years after, until 1974, this island served as a place of exile and tortures of the political opponents of the government.
The eastern coast of the island has several small sandy beaches, accessible only by boat or yacht, provided the captain of the boat knows very well the sea, as several reefs scattered around may prove dangerous. A small cove, well protected from the winds is found at the southern coast; be cautious when reaching this cove, as there is an invisible reef some 200 meters far from the coast.
The island is found at a distance of some 2-4 nautical miles far from the boat slide of Lavrio, depending on the coast you choose to visit.

The orientation of Dining Hall is considered with the situation that sun rays should fall on that area, because sun rays will kill all the harmful bacteria present in the stored food.
Here are some basic points one must keep in mind while designing Dining Hall.
- The most preferred direction for Dining Hall is the West corner of the house. However, if it not possible to set the Dining Hall in West then one can consider the South direction also.
- Dining hall should be set in adjacent to the Kitchen but never to the Toilet.
- The main door of the house and of the Dining Room should not face each other.
- The door of Puja Room or Toilet should not open in front of Dining Hall.
- The wash basin should be in East or Northwest side of the room.
- The shape of the dining table should be perfect square or rectangle.
- Dining table should not stick to the wall. But if it is unavoidable due to space constraints, then face it towards West of South. In no condition the dining table should stick to the Northeast corner.
- If you want to place a refrigerator in the dining room, it should be in southeast direction.
- While eating the members should face the East or North but never South.

How to Wire a 4 Channel Amp to 6 Speakers
This article will go over the process of wiring a 4 channel amp to 6 speakers. The speaker system will be powered by a 12V DC power supply.
Wiring four channels into one speaker are very different from wiring six speakers into one amp. This article will show how to wire four channels of power into six speakers for maximum efficiency and effect. The objective is to provide the most powerful sound output possible with no distortion or interference caused by multiple speaker connections.
Learning to wire a 4 channel amp to 6 speakers is not as complicated as it may seem. All you need to do is know the right wire size and length for each channel and then carefully read through the instructions below. This will make your wiring job much easier, and ultimately make it sound better.
Table of Contents
How many speakers are you running?
This is probably the first question that jumps into your mind, but it is also one of the most important. Most stereos have at least 2 speakers connected to each channel, which means that if you are running 6 speakers, then it means that 4 speakers will be connected to the left side and 4 to the right side. So before you begin wiring your amplifier, make sure you have all of your gear set up so you can connect them correctly.
Wiring a 4 channel Amp to 6 Speakers
1. Getting Started
As with any project, make sure you are grounded and have the room open if it is messy. The last thing you want is for anyone in your family to trip over cables when they are running around. Go ahead and take the metal plates off of the back of your amplifier when you are ready to start wiring, then use some electrical tape or hot glue to secure them in place temporarily.
2. Connecting the Speakers to the Amplifier
Connecting your speakers to your amplifier is pretty straightforward. Just take your speaker wire and cut them between 6-8 inches in length, which will provide you with enough wire to get to the amplifier. Once you have done this, use some electrical tape or hot glue to secure one end of each speaker wire to the metal plate on the back of your stereo.
Next, take your RCA cables and attach one of each pair to the white and red wires on your speaker wire. Finally, use a small length of wire and connect the other end of the wire to the tip on one of your speakers.
3. Connecting the Speakers to Each Channel
To connect a speaker to a channel, you will only need one from each speaker. If you are looking at your amplifier, you will see that there are four channels. You will need to connect one speaker wire to the positive terminals on Channel 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Then, using an additional length of wire (the same length as the original length), connect the speaker wires to the white and black wires on Channel 1, 2 3, and 4. Finally, if there is not another pair of RCA plugs on your connection cord, then use two male-to-male plugs to connect each set of wires. Ensure that both male plugs are tightly connected to each end.
The next step is to connect the other pair of speaker wires to the input terminals on your amplifier. Your amplifier will have a tab or hole on one side of the input connectors that allow you to connect and disconnect an RCA cable (like the ones we used above). Just make sure no wires are touching and bend them away from each other before you connect them.
4. Making Some Connections
The final step is connecting your external power source to your amplifier. Your amplifier will have a set of power terminals that will allow you to connect an external power supply. For this project we will use a 12V power supply, so be sure to select the right type when you go shopping.
The output terminals will be labeled with either + or -. It is also important to note that when you attach the + and – plates to your power supply, it is always best to use the – terminal when making connections. This will ensure that your amplifier gets the power that it needs to run properly.
5. Finishing Up
The last step is securing the metal plates on the back of your stereo with some adhesive for protection. This will prevent them from making contact with your amplifier, which will cause a short in your power source and could ultimately damage your stereo.
Once you have completed this step, you should be able to turn on your stereo and play some music. However, there is one more step that you can take to improve the quality even further. And that is by adding a capacitor to the end of each channel. You can purchase them at any auto parts or electronic store.
You can now enjoy your new four-channel amplifier to six-speaker setup. It is important to remember that speaker wire is not for static electricity (such as moving through a large group of people) because it can cause shorts in your amp and could damage your speakers. Always use care when moving around with your wiring! Now go out there and rock out! Happy Wiring!

Conclusion
If you are looking into upgrading the sound quality in your living room, wiring a 4 channel amp to 6 speakers can be done easily. Remember that each speaker has two sides of the speaker, so you need two wires per speaker. Take a look at our how-to video below to see our final projects in action!
FAQ:
Q: Can I Connect 6 speakers to a 4 channel amp?
A: An increase in load makes your amp hot that is not good for your amplifier. You can connect 6 speakers to 4 channel amp either in series or parallel. Both have their advantages as well as disadvantages. The choice will be yours. Suppose you have 4-ohm speakers that people purchase mostly.
Q: How many speakers can be connected in a 4-ohm AMP?
A: If you wire 2 speakers of 4-ohm in parallel, it results in a 2-ohm load on your head unit. As you are going to connect 2 speakers on 1 channel, you will have to connect 4 speakers on 2 channels. Your 4 speakers are connected on 2 channels and the remaining 2 can be connected on the remaining 2 channels. Now 6 speakers are connected on 4 channels.
Q: Which two speakers to wire in a single channel?
A: Now the question arises which two speakers to wire in a single channel. Suppose that 6 speakers are installed in your car in such a way that 2 are on the dashboard, 2 on the rear, and two on the sides. In this case, you can wire 2 rear speakers with 1 channel and 2 side speakers with other 1 channel.
Q: Can you wire 2 speakers in parallel?
A: If you wire 2 speakers of 4-ohm in parallel, it results in a 2-ohm load on your head unit. As you are going to connect 2 speakers on 1 channel, you will have to connect 4 speakers on 2 channels. Your 4 speakers are connected on 2 channels and the remaining 2 can be connected on the remaining 2 channels.


.__widget__.int_param0: slider.5
By setting as above, the step width of the slider can be set to 5. At this time, this step size can not be decimals. However, there is a possibility that it will be improved by future upgrading.
 - When spin button (spin) is set
 conf.__widget__.int_param1: spin
The step width of the spin button is always 1 increment. It is recommended that it be used only for integer value parameters such as int.
 - When radio button (radio) is set
 conf__widget__str_param0: radio
 - When text (text) is set
 conf__widget__.str_param1: text
If these conf._widget_ parameters are set, the conf._ constraints_ parameter must also be set.
(G)conf._constraints_ setting
The conf._constraints_ parameter is a special parameter for setting a range of values. An example of setting is shown below. Be careful when setting invalid parameters because the widget will not be displayed properly.
 - If you set a slider (slider), use the equal sign and inequality signs for the temporary variable x as shown below.
 conf.__constraints__.int_param0: 0<=x<=150
 - When you set the spin button (spin), specify it using the equal sign and the inequality sign of the temporary variable x like the slider.
 conf.__constraints__.int_param0: 0<=x<=1000
 - If you set the radio button (radio), separate the button names in parentheses with commas. Multiple button names can be specified.
 conf.__constraints__.str_param0: (default,mode0,mode1)
 - If you set text (text), specify the character you want to display.
 conf.__constraints__.str_param1: AIST
Below is an example of display in RTSystemEditor according to the above setting.
configuration_constraints_ja.png
display example of conf._constraints_
(G)Conversion function
For C++ and others, you do not need to specify conversion functions, especially for built-in types such as int and double. Meanwhile, we used user-specific types such as structure and STL container There are also cases. In this case, it is necessary to give bindParameter () as a function how to convert from a character string to each type.
Regarding conversion functions, there are rules for each language as follows. The method for each language will be described below.
(G)Conversion function for C++
In C++, the prototype declaration of bindParameter is
 template <typename VarType>
 bool bindParameter(const char* param_name, VarType& var,
 const char* def_val,
 bool (*trans)(VarType&, const char*) = coil::stringTo)

The conversion from the character string to the relevant type is done by giving appropriate function pointer to the trans of the fourth argument. By default, the coil library function stringTo () function is given. You can write a conversion function equivalent to this stringTo () yourself, but you can also give a function pointer, but the coil :: stringTo () function itself is also a function template, and operator >> ( )function
 std::istream& operator>>(std::istream&, T)
If it is defined, it will automatically be used to convert from a string to a specific type.
That is, if std :: cin >> <variable of one type> can be written, operator >> () is defined for that type, and in particular as a configuration parameter without writing a conversion function You can use it.
If there is no conversion function, for example, a comma-separated numeric string
 0.0,1.0,2.0,3.0,4.0
To convert to std :: vector <double>
 #include <istream>
 #include <ostream>
 #include <vector>
 #include <string>
 #include <coil/stringutil.h>

 template<typename T>
 std::istream& operator>>(std::istream& is, std::vector<T>& v)
 {
 std::string s;
 std::vector<std::string> sv;
 is >> s;
 sv = coil::split(s ,",");
 v.resize(sv.size());
 for (int i(0), len(sv.size()); i < len; ++i)
 {
 T tv;
 if (coil::stringTo(tv, sv[i].c_str()))
 {
 v[i] = tv;
 }
 }
 return is;
 }
It can be implemented in this way. This is VectorConvert.h included in the source of the OpenRTM-aist C++ version, ConfigSample component.
If we include this in the source called bindParameter () (eg ConfigSample.cpp if it is a ConfigSample component), usually in the implementation source of the component, the compiler will decide at compile time and the appropriate conversion function will be used .
(G)Conversion function for Java
In the case of Java, instead of giving a conversion function separately, describe the conversion from character string to actual type in the stringFrom () method defined in the holder class of the configuration variable.
Below is the conversion function for converting a comma-separated numeric string to Vector type defined in ConfigSampole of OpenRTM-aist Java version.
 package RTMExamples.ConfigSample;

 import java.io.Serializable;
 import java.util.Vector;

 import jp.go.aist.rtm.RTC.util.ValueHolder;

 public class VectorHolder implements ValueHolder, Serializable {

 /**
 * Vector type data setting value
 */
 public Vector value = null;

 /**
 * Default constructor
 *
 */
 public VectorHolder() {
 }

 /**
 * constructor
 *
 * @param initialValue initial value
 *
 */
 public VectorHolder(Vector initialValue) {
 value = new Vector(initialValue);
 }

 /**
 * Convert from character string to Vector type and set
 *
 * @param def_val Set value string representation
 *
 */
 public void stringFrom(String def_val) throws Exception {
 value = new Vector();
 String values[] = def_val.split(",");
 for( int intIdx=0;intIdx<values.length;intIdx++ ) {
 value.add(values[intIdx]);
 }
 }
 /**
 * Acquire setting value
 *
 * @return Setting value
 *
 */
 public Vector getValue(){
 return value;
 }
 /**
 * Convert setting value to character string
 *
 * @return Conversion string
 *
 */
 public String toString(){
 StringBuffer retVal = new StringBuffer();
 while(value.iterator().hasNext()) {
 retVal.append(value.iterator().next());
 if(value.iterator().hasNext()) retVal.append("'");
 }
 return retVal.toString();
 }
 }
(G)Conversion function for Python
In Python version OpenRTM - aist, by default, it corresponds to the basic type and its list, and if other conversion is necessary, define a function such as bool stringTo (type, string) and call the first of bindParameter () 4 Pass the function object as an argument.
(G)What to make as a parameter?
Let's think about what you need to make as a configuration parameter to create an RT component.
There are certain parameters, and there are several ways to change this externally. How to change using the data port, change by using the service port, and change using the configuration.
The configuration function is used to change the parameters inside the component. Therefore, parameters in the logic should be externally changeable as configuration parameters. However, I think that there are cases where it is in doubt whether a certain variable should be used as a configuration parameter or not. Here I will think about a case like that.
(G)Update Frequency
Configuration parameters are usually used to give parameters externally only once the system is running or only when configuration changes are required. If the update frequency is about once or several times on the system life cycle, it is a good idea to use the configuration.
Also as mentioned above, the configuration is given as a string from the tool or application, and it is converted into each type in the component. It takes time to convert to some extent (although it is about several us to several hundreds of us in recent PCs), it is not suitable for use in sending data in 1 ms cycle, for example. How about changing the parameter at that frequency? When actually using it, although it depends on the number of parameters and

5,000-year-old tools from Crawford County.
Chipped-stone tools from the Crow Hollow site
These five tools are from the Crow Hollow site, a rare, Middle Archaic campsite located along the Kickapoo River in Crawford County. They were made and used about 5,000 years ago. Over 2,000 artifacts were recovered during recent excavations there, including projectile points and bifaces, scrapers, graver, and chipping debris produced during the manufacture and resharpening of chipped-stone tools. Two grinding or milling stones were also found. Society archaeologists also encountered several storage or refuse pits and possible areas of special activity, reflecting the daily activities of cooking food, animal hide preparation, and making and repairing stone tools.

What Is The History Of The Chesapeake Bay Retriever Dog Breed?
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a large-sized breed of dog bred in the United States. The breed was developed in the 19th century as a hunting dog. The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a descendant of the English retriever and is related to other American retriever breeds, such as the Labrador Retriever and the Golden Retriever. The breed gets its named after the Chesapeake Bay, where it was developed.
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever was developed in the 1800s by hunters who needed a dog that could withstand cold weather and had a strong swimming ability. The breed was created by crossing several different retrievers, including the Newfoundland, Flat-Coated Retriever, and other American and British retriever breeds. The American Kennel Club recognized the Chesapeake Bay Retriever in 1878.

Gerbils And Exercise Wheels
How do you get gerbils to use an exercise wheel?
By Donna Anastasi
Posted: May 17, 2010, 2:40 p.m. EDT
Q: I have three gerbils living together in a 20-gallon long tank setup. None of them ever run on the wheel that I have in their cage. They mostly use it to burrow under. Is there a way to teach them to use a wheel, if it would be beneficial to their health?
A: The best type of wheel for gerbils is an 8-inch diameter, wire mesh (not slatted or plastic) wheel. A gerbil's tail could get caught in an old-style slatted wheel, and gerbils will chew a plastic wheel to bits. Some gerbils like a wheel and others don't.
The best way to get gerbils to run on a wheel is to offer a wheel when they are young, at about 5 weeks old. Wire it to the mesh lid of their tank so it hangs a few inches above the litter. Gerbils like the challenge of jumping and climbing on a wheel, and once inside may run on it. Try wiring the wheel so it holds still until they get used to sitting in it, then unwire it so it moves and they can run in it.
A final tip is that gerbils learn from watching gerbils in other tanks. If you ever go away and have someone with wheel-aholic gerbils babysit yours, you might come back to see your gerbils happily running in their wheel!
If your gerbils never take to the wheel, give them other things for exercise. Some examples are: a metal climbing structure or a branch from the reptile section of the pet store, deep litter to dig and burrow in, a dust bath to roll in, timothy hay, unscented toilet tissue, a PVC pipe as a tunnel, and plenty of cardboard boxes and tubes to gnaw up.

Within a table row, if a column repeats, then these repetitions can be displayed via the dynamic columns feature. The column is associated with a repeating element of a page source. When the table is rendered, the number of columns will correspond dynamically to the number of occurrences of the associated element.

Dynamic columns can occur in two types of row contexts:

Static rows, dynamic columns: In this situation, the table grows horizontally rather than vertically (compare table below with table containing dynamic rows). In this case, the leading column acts as a "header"; it can contain the names of the rows. (A leading column can be added when the table is first created, but since the column is static can also be created subsequently).

<Person>
<Person>
<Person>
<First>

<Last>

<Phone>

Dynamic rows, dynamic columns: The table can grow both vertically (additional rows) and horizontally (additional columns). To create this kind of table, the number of column element occurrences in the page source must be the same for all rows. For example, in the table below, each of the four week elements (each corresponding to a row in the table) contains exactly three day elements (the columns of the table). If any week element contains some other number of day elements than three, then the table cannot be correctly drawn. Note also that, typically: (i) column elements occur within row elements, both in the page source and in the table design; (ii) the names of row elements are the same and the names of column elements are the same. However, neither of these two points is a necessary condition for building this kind of dynamic table: (i) column elements can occur outside row elements, and (ii) the names of rows/columns can be different.

<day>
<day>
<day>
<week>

<week>

<week>

<week>

Note:A data stream can be generated from an XPath/XQuery expression and can be used as a data source. However, this kind of data source is created for current use only and cannot be accessed as a page source for use elsewhere in the document.

Example: dynamic columns for days inside dynamic rows for weeks
The screenshot below shows a calendar element that contains four week elements, with each week element containing seven day elements. We can make a table containing dynamic rows for week elements and dynamic columns (inside each week element) for the day elements. Notice that in the data structure (i) the day elements are inside the week elements, and (ii) the number of day elements inside every week element is the same: seven.
MTDTablesDynamicColsEx01

Creating dynamic columns inside dynamic rows
Drag a table control into the design and drop it at the location where you want to create it. In the New Table dialog (screenshot below), select the options for dynamic rows and dynamic columns. Select the number of rows and columns that should be repeated for each occurrence of the element that, respectively, corresponds to the row and column. Leading/Trailing columns correspond to Header/Footer rows. Note that you can add Append/Delete controls for dynamic rows, but not for dynamic columns.
Click to expand/collapse
The table will be created in the design. The screenshot below shows the completed design of a table with dynamic rows and columns. Note the following points:

The fields representing the table's dynamic rows and columns are indicated by icons that, respectively, show a row and column.
These fields must be associated with the page source nodes that will provide the data for the table's rows and columns. The element associated with the column must, in the page source, be contained within the element associated with the row. In the design, however, notice that the row field is placed within the column field.
MTDTablesDynamicColsExDes01
Also note the XPath expressions that are used to associate the row and column fields with page source nodes. The expression that selects the element for the row field must select all instances of the corresponding element. The XPath expression in the screenshot above selects all the week child elements of the calendar element: \$XML1/calendar/week. The XPath expression for the column field, however, must select only the column element within the current row. So, an XPath expression such as \$XML1/calendar/week/day would not work because it would select all the day child elements of all week elements. Note also that the XPath context node for the column field is the element that is associated with the row. In our example, the context node of the column field is week. As a result, an XPath expression of day would select the day child elements of the current week element.
In the design there is a single cell located at the intersection of the row and column fields. The context node of this cell is the element corresponding to the row field (in our example, the week element). XPath expressions in this cell must be constructed within this context. When the table is created, then within each "row element" (the week element in our example), a cell is created for each column. The XPath expression is evaluated for each column's cell within the context of the current row. To reach the contents of the element that corresponds to the column field, a special variable is available: \$MT_TableColumnContext, which, at runtime, contains the element that corresponds to the current column (in our example the current day element within the current week element). All this is best explained with an example. In the screenshot above, the cell in the design that is at the intersection of the row and column fields contains a label control. This control has text that is provided by an XPath expression: concat(@id\$MT_TableColumnContext/@id). The concat() function concatenates two strings: the ID of the current week—obtained by @id— and the ID of the current day within the current week—obtained by \$MT_TableColumnContext/@id. Since the context node of the entire XPath expression is the week element (associated with the rows) @id provides the value of the current week/@id attribute, while the \$MT_TableColumnContext/@id expression fetches the content of the current day/@id attribute within the current week element.

The output of the table design that is shown in the screenshot above will look something like this:
MTDTablesDynamicColsExSim01
Each week element in the page source is displayed in a row (W1 to W4).
Each day element within a week is displayed within the appropriate column (D1 to D7).
The concatenation of the two IDs is executed separately for the 28 cells from W1D1 to W4D7.

For information about spanning dynamic columns,see the section Row/Column joining and spanning.

As part of the Joint Planning and Development for water systems in the City of Fernley/Wadsworth Area grant, a supplemental storage analysis will be conducted which will determine the quantity and required time period of storage of surface water to ensure the City of Fernley maximizes its water resources and is able to meet its current and future requirements. Task Item 5.0 of the grant is required to evaluate the options for storage in the local groundwater system during the irrigation season and recovers that stored water during non-irrigation seasons. The State of Nevada, Division of Environmental Protection and Division of Water Resources require a permit prior to implementation of an Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) system. This proposal outlines the components of the study that will be required to update the existing groundwater flow model for the Fernley/Wadsworth basins. The Desert Research Institute (DRI) will work collaboratively with Stanka Consulting and the City of Fernley to create a more accurate groundwater model that can be used to support the application permit required for the project.

DALLAS - Students scheduled to return to Sand Hill Elementary School later this month may have to wait a little longer, as Marshall County Schools officials said the building was damaged by coal mining beneath the property.
In November, the 56 students and their teachers relocated to Hilltop Elementary School to allow Consol Energy Inc. to mine around the Sand Hill building. The mining, which was originally scheduled to begin Sept. 1, was delayed until later in the month. As crews approached the building, the students were moved to ensure their safety. Workers were scheduled to be done with work near the school by about the middle of January, when engineers from Consol and the district would inspect the school and determine its safety before allowing students to return.
Although crews have already passed the school building with their mining operations, Marshall County Superintendent Fred Renzella said a tentative report from Consol indicates there is some cracking in the block structure of the school. The front door of the building also has been damaged, along with the surrounding structure.
"They have seen a number of stress cracks throughout the corners of the building," Renzella said Monday, adding he had not yet received the report in writing.
Once the written report is received and reviewed, the district will send its own contractors to verify the findings. Following verification, crews will determine the extent of the damage and decide who will do any repairs that are needed. Until then, school officials and students must wait for word on how long they will remain at Hilltop Elementary School.
"Until we get the official report from Consol, we are in a hold pattern," Renzella said.
Renzella noted November's transition went well, and he has heard no complaints from parents.
"When we had our initial meeting with the PTA, everyone was extremely neighborly and welcoming," he said.
He added that the principal at Hilltop, Cindy McCutcheon, was the principal at Sand Hill just a year ago, which made the transition for students and teachers much easier.
"She knows the parents well, and they have faith and trust in her and are assured their children are receiving a good education," he said.
Although it was not in the original plan, Renzella said the district is prepared to use Hilltop as the main school for all involved students until the Sand Hill building is deemed safe.
After finishing work at the site later this month, crews are expected to return this summer to mine a panel on the other side of the building. Students will be on summer vacation during that phase of mining.
Consol spokeswoman Lynn Manning declined to comment Monday, saying the company will issue a statement on the situation at Sand Hill at a later date.

What Is a Temperature Log Sheet?
A Temperature Log Sheet is a typed or handwritten document that registers temperatures in food and medicine storage areas with the intention to make sure the level of temperature is safe and items will remain in proper condition. You have to maintain correct temperature levels in the food industry and health facilities - it will not only save your property but will allow you to avoid legal issues. For instance, if you administer a vaccine that expired due to inadequate storage conditions, you may face serious penalties.
Refrigerator Temperature Logs are handy for the following situations:
 - Recording dates and times when you collected temperature data;
 - Collecting older temperature readings for comparison purposes;
 - Determining if the current temperature is outside the ideal - whether recommended or required - range;
 - Sharing charts with supervisors and auditors for further inspections.
How to Use a Temperature Log?
You can create a Refrigerator Temperature Log for the following industries:
 1. Healthcare. Medical storage areas that have hundreds and thousands of vaccines and medications must have the correct temperature at all times of day and night - otherwise, individuals responsible for this storage may have to deal with drug deterioration, an increase of toxicity, and compromised levels of effectiveness - future users of the vaccines and medicine may be at risk. If you discover a malfunction in your refrigerator that leads to the degradation of pharmaceutical items, you will have to report it and these items will be recalled.
 2. Food. It is required to store and prepare different kinds of food supplies at different temperatures - if you fail to do so, you jeopardize the safety of everyone who eats the food later. Additionally, food items that were not properly stored may lead to the possible closure of your establishment and major financial loss.
 3. Transportation. Whether you have to ship medicine or food, these perishable items must be stored with the proper temperature during their transit. It helps other industries to maintain the integrity of their items.
Types of Temperature Logs
A Refrigeration Temperature Log is indispensable for food workers, healthcare workers, and medical scientists. Once you set the acceptable temperature, you will be able to monitor items in cold storage and write down the date in a chart. See our library of Temperature Log Sheets below to verify temperatures of your items and confirm that your refrigerated equipment works without any issues:
 1. Vaccine Temperature Log (in C and F). Draft this log to record temperatures in the refrigerator and freezer compartments of the vaccine storage unit every day. Also, you can document improper events such as exposure of vaccines to temperatures outside of the recommended ranges and room temperature at the time you discovered the issue.
 2. Food Temperature Log (in C and F). Restaurant managers and food workers can use this chart to control and record the temperature of various food items at their establishments and events.
 3. Refrigerator and Freezer Temperature Log. Maintain this log for all refrigerators and freezers at your facility and take corrective actions for additional maintenance or repair.

Chocolate and Maple Syrup
Every day we use many things that come from trees. Fruits and nuts like apples, peaches, plums, cherries and almonds all come from living trees, as does the cocoa bean that makes chocolate! Living trees also provide spices like cinnamon, nutmeg and black pepper, and the sap from the maple tree makes maple syrup!
Many medicines also come from trees and other plants. As a matter of fact, aspirin comes from the bark of a willow tree. Scientists are still searching for new medicines in trees, which is another reason why it's so important to protect our forests. They could provide us a cure for cancer!

We were taught at a young age that water boils at an energy of 100 degrees Celsius, or 212 degrees Fahrenheit, and that's still true!
But kettles boil and heat liquids at different temperatures, depending on a few factors. Factors like the power of heat and material are things to consider when you want to buy a kettle.
If you're curious to learn how differently each kettle can heat water, read on to learn more!

Many factors affect how kettles boil water, tea, coffee, and other liquids. Atmospheric pressure, the temperature of the air, and elevation are among the external factors.
When it comes to the kettle itself, its size and material determine the right temperature at which a kettle will heat water.
The larger diameter of a kettle translates to more surface area where heat is supposed to spread across.
This means that even when two kettles are made of the same material and use the same surface, the kettle with a larger surface will take longer to heat water than the smaller one.
Different metals also have varying thermal conductivity rates. A kettle made of one type of metal can transfer heat much faster than another, even if they measure the same surface area.
What Materials Are Different Kettles Made Of?
Kettles heat water differently depending on the type of metals or material they are made of. Check out the best electric kettles for your home or office.
Let's find out how they contrast from each other:
Steel is a form of alloy made of iron and carbon. This combination makes steel a strong material in many kitchen appliances, including kettles.
Steel also conducts more heat and keeps hot tea or water, making it a reliable material for any hot-temperature liquid. Plus, steel is the most sustainable. It is reused and recycled all the time.
The only downside is steel tends to rust due to its high iron content, making it dangerous to heat water consistently.
The difference between steel and stainless steel is the latter has at least a 10.5% chromium content that reacts with oxygen, resulting in a protective layer making it resistant to rust.
That is why most kettles are made of stainless steel, aside from their quick heating and heat retention abilities in temperature.
This kettle is known to last longer, is easy to maintain, and does not absorb residual odors and flavors. Plus, they are lightweight and add a classic polished look to your kitchen countertop.
Cast iron is another strong material used in making electric kettles. However, because they tend to rust, they may not be the healthiest kettle for heating water or tea.
It heats liquids well and boils well, making it a good material for warm-temperature liquids!
However, If you do not regularly clean your cast iron kettle, you might experience an unpleasant aftertaste in your hot beverages.
Silver is another good conductor of heat. But compared to other materials, they're not the sturdiest.
Silver heats and boils water well, hence why it is one of the more popular materials to use when producing equipment.
A silver kettle may look nice and shiny but is prone to scratches when not handled carefully. Plus, silver can be very expensive!
Aluminum is used for cans, kitchen utensils, and many other products, including a kettle.
With how well aluminum conducts heat and boils water, it is no surprise that the material is often a popular choice for manufacturers!
Water boils fast in an aluminum kettle. This metal is resistant to rust, scratches, and stains. They are lightweight and easy to handle too.
Kettles heat water faster in copper than aluminum, even when pouring cold water into the kettle.
This means it even boils better than aluminum! In addition, Copper does not contain iron either, so it does not rust.
Glass is a popular option used to make an electric kettle. Most kettles are made with tempered glass or borosilicate glass.
Glass kettles are great at tolerating high heating up to 170 degrees Celsius. And generally, they heat water faster.
Aside from that, glass kettles are dishwasher-safe, easy to clean, and not prone to limescale build-up.
The only downside is they are more fragile and are likely to break and shatter. So best be extra careful when pouring!
Why Are Some Kettles Hotter Than Others?
As the kettle boils, those with a stainless steel outer reach a hotter temperature fast. So keep your kids out of the kitchen!
Other factors that might affect how hot your kettle gets as you pour water out:
- If your kettle is pre-heated before you fill it with cold water for boiling
- The volume of water in your kettle
- If you've allowed your kettle to cool down in between uses
Other than a kettle's capacity to boil hot water, you might be curious to find out why kettles make noise too.
Do Kettles Heat the Water Evenly?
Kettles heat tea or water evenly through convection. The principle of convection means water heats up in a circular pattern around its base.
As the water or tea heats up in a pot or kettle, it rises to the top and then sinks back down, causing a continuous cycle of heating throughout the interiors of the kettle.
The longer you keep the water to a boil, the more pressure increases, and more energy is created to distribute the heat uniformly.
What Are the Different Temperatures to Remember When Boiling Water?
Various factors affect how boiled water or tea is achieved. These factors include elevation, atmospheric pressure, and air temperature.
At sea level, which is an elevation of zero feet, the boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius, or 212 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the normal case.
As elevation and air pressure increase, the boiling point of water drops. For example, if you are 1,000 feet above sea level, water will boil at a different temperature of 194˚F.
This is usually true in a high-altitude area with less oxygen and more air pressure. Water boils at a lower temperature than normal.
In other cases, water will take much longer to boil when the cold temperature drops below the freezing point. That's, of course, the ice crystals that are reducing the heat.
How Do I Know When the Water Has Reached the Boiling Point?
Once you've filled up your kettle with water or tea and you switch the kettle on, it will only take minutes for it to boil.
The easiest way to know if tea or water has reached its boiling point is to measure the temperature of the hot water with a thermometer.
The boiling point is the right temperature at which your water or tea begins to bubble and create steam.
This happens as the molecules transfer more energy to each other. This energy transfer creates air pressure
A few things can happen when a kettle boils water that you can observe:
- Bubbles forming
- Water turns into gas or steam
- The vapor pressure of the water is equal to its surrounding air pressure
- The temperature of the water no longer increases
When the pressure increases inside the kettle, the water molecules will turn into a gas at a certain temperature. At this point, the temperature of the liquid stops increasing.
Water will boil, and the steam eventually gets trapped. This creates more energy on the water molecules wanting to escape.
What Is the Desired Temperature for Water to Be Used for Tea and Coffee?
Temperature control is crucial for a cup of brewed drink to taste its best! A different temperature will yield a different flavor.
For instance, black tea leaves are best hot between 160˚F and 190˚F. Green tea should be brewed for only a few minutes and at a temperature of 160˚F. Others prefer to have their tea hotter at 175˚F for only a full minute.
Regarding coffee, the ideal water temperature for extraction is between 195°F and 205°F.
However, you might need to raise or lower the temperature of your brew depending on your coffee flavor preference.
A lighter roast needs a slightly higher temperature. This extra heat helps speed up the extraction process.
A darker roast should have a lower temperature. This allows the kettle to avoid over-extraction and bitter flavors.

Kettles Boil At Different Temperatures FAQs
We've got you covered with FAQs on whether or not a kettle's temperature varies in specific circumstances. Check these out!
Can a kettle boil water at 100 ˚C at all times and places? No. The temperature at which a kettle can heat water will depend on its air pressure at different altitudes.
From Mount Everest to the Dead Sea, water's boiling point will vary from just below 70 ˚C to over 101 ˚C.
For pure water to boil at sea level, your kettle must heat to 100 °C. Tap water, however, has many impurities, including microbial and organic contaminants in the water.
You may even find chlorine and fluoride too. These, taken in large quantities, can be toxic.
Impurities present in any liquid will raise its boiling point. Thus, it will take a temperature of more than 100 °C to boil tap water in a kettle.
So that's that! It is a given fact that there is no one perfect temperature when water boils. Its temperature will vary as to the altitude of where you are heating your water.
And in case

Minus tides this weekend are among the lowest this summer, offering a chance to see the clams, anemones and sea stars that inhabit parts of the shoreline that beachcombers get to see only occasionally.
Tides of minus two feet or more occur in Bellingham Bay and surrounding Salish Sea waters about midday for several days starting Thursday, June12, when the ebb is -2.2 feet at 11:09 a.m. There's an ebb of -2.9 feet at 12:36 p.m. on Saturday, June 14.
Budding young naturalists are encouraged to explore the beaches at low tide, but should be careful about disturbing the fragile ecosystem. Instead of lifting a rock, for example, gently tip it over to see what's underneath.
Good places to explore are the shoreline at Semiahmoo Spit near Blaine, Birch Bay State Park, and Point Whitehorn. Larrabee State Park boasts a rocky shoreline with traditional tide pools, and Marine Park offers a fascinating collection of intertidal life.

On the Convergence of Model Free Learning in Mean Field Games
PROCEEDINGS OF THE THIRTIETH AAAI CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE TWENTY-EIGHTH INNOVATIVE APPLICATIONS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE CONFERENCE
Learning by experience in Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) is a difficult and exciting task, due to the lack of stationarity of the environment, whose dynamics evolves as the population learns. In order to design scalable algorithms for systems with a large population of interacting agents (e.g., swarms), this paper focuses on Mean Field MAS, where the number of agents is asymptotically infinite. Recently, a very active burgeoning field studies the effects of diverse reinforcement learning algorithms
... or agents with no prior information on a stationary Mean Field Game (MFG) and learn their policy through repeated experience. We adopt a high perspective on this problem and analyze in full generality the convergence of a fictitious iterative scheme using any single agent learning algorithm at each step. We quantify the quality of the computed approximate Nash equilibrium, in terms of the accumulated errors arising at each learning iteration step. Notably, we show for the first time convergence of model free learning algorithms towards non-stationary MFG equilibria, relying only on classical assumptions on the MFG dynamics. We illustrate our theoretical results with a numerical experiment in a continuous action-space environment, where the approximate best response of the iterative fictitious play scheme is computed with a deep RL algorithm.


How long does a compensation claim take?
Every claimant wants to settle their claim as quickly as possible and move on from their injury. But to get to the point where a compensation claim can be settled involves evidence, expert opinions and investigations from insurers. It also requires clear communication between insurers, specialist solicitors, claimants and occasionally the courts. All of this can take time.
Some claim types are known to settle more quickly than others. In cases where negligence is obviously clear, and a defendant insurer has no reasonable option other than to make an admission of liability, a claim will settle more quickly. Conversely, in a matter relating to a more complex claim where negligence isn't so easily obvious, a claimant solicitor will have to make a strong argument to succeed and achieve an admission of liability, and a claim will take longer to settle.
Claims that tend to settle more quickly
Claims often settle within a few months, when:
 - Liability against the party that caused an accident is clear and obvious
 - The claim relates to relatively minor injuries with full recovery
 - Claimants respond quickly to requests for information
 - Accident details have been properly reported and recorded
 - Injuries and losses are not in dispute
Claims that can take longer
As you would expect, there are many issues that can arise that are beyond our control and slow the claims process down. Furthermore, two seemingly similar claims may initially give the view that they will settle quickly – yet one could take six months and the other could take 18 months. Each claim does need to be looked at on its own merits and complexities, but common issues that can cause a slower claim timeframe include:
 - Complex claims, including severe and life changing injuries
 - Incomplete medical treatments meaning injury/recovery prognosis is not known
 - Split liability or denied liability claims
 - Claimant failure to respond quickly to solicitor queries
 - Inefficiency and slow work by other parties – for example, defendant insurers
 - Claims that have to go to court
In more serious and complex cases, where negligence is not obvious and evidence is not so clear cut, there can be denials of liability from a defendant insurer. This will lead to an unavoidable slowing of the claims process. At this point, a claimant solicitor will seek further instructions from a claimant to enable them to fight a denial of liability and seek expert opinion from a barrister in an effort to force an admission of liability.
In cases where a defendant has accepted responsibility, and will therefore make a compensation settlement offer to a claimant, they may dispute the value of a claim settlement or the losses incurred by a claimant, and request further evidence and medical assessments to support the claim. They could state a desire to take the matter to court for a judgement on the settlement, and such issues will definitely slow a claim down.
Insurer deadlines and legal protocols
It is the third party insurer's job to minimise any settlement they have to pay, and they aren't always good act acting quickly. Helpfully for claimants, there are legally-binding timeframes in place to prevent claims being dragged out longer than necessary. These 'Pre-Action Protocols' give a maximum time for defendant insurers to respond to claims and carry out their investigations. The times vary depending on the claim type involved.
At Direct2Compensation, we realise that much rests on the speedy action of our team and partners to minimise delays, that defendants are pressed to ensure that deadlines are met, and that the claim is regularly chased. We work tirelessly to ensure that claimants are kept informed and that their claim is settled fairly and quickly.

A patent application from Apple published on Thursday shows the company is looking at ways to turn your iPhone into a personal assistant that learns from your actions. The patent describes how your iPhone could change the way it displays information and apps based on your habits or mood, and how it could anticipate your needs based on your activities.
Apple patent shows an iPhone that knows your mood and what you're doing
Apple's "Determining Preferential Device Behavior" patent describes a system where a device can learn based on a user's behaviors and then build profiles tailored to a specific person. The device could also track moods and use that information to help improve personalization, according to Patently Apple.
The system can also use location tracking to help deliver data and features in context. It could, for example, know when you're at work, at home, or on vacation, and adapt to each situation. If you leave on vacation, your iPhone could automatically shut off your morning alarm, and then reenable it after you return home.
Moods could be detected using the iPhone's built-in cameras and facial recognition, or voice recognition through the built-in mic. In essence, your iPhone could watch and listen to you all the time, just like a real personal assistant would, and react to your needs and mood.
The patent also makes mention of biometric sensors, hinting that the system could also be used as part of Apple's rumored health and fitness tracking plans.
A patent application isn't a promise of coming features, but this one does offer some interesting insight into what Apple may be considering for future iPhone models. An iPhone that can anticipate our needs and react based on what we're doing or how we're feeling, almost like a real person sounds like a very compelling feature.

Keeper of Gil's Vault wrote:Shourai, you still haven't convinced me though. According to the quote, when a true Heroic Spirit cannot be found, a Bourei is used to act as a substitute. This seems to be the basis of "amalgamated" heroic spirits such as True Assassin, where all the different masked individuals are the Hassan. However, this only indicates that the individual summoned is not the true hero, it does not dictate that the individual summoned is not a Heroic Spirit at all.
What I meant is that, each True Assassin summoned is still a Heroic Spirit, but just that he/she is not the true Hassan (the legend considers Hassan to be one person, which is not true). If this statement does not hold, then each individual assassin is not considered a Heroic Spirit, thus none of them are placed in the Throne of Heroes. Saying the individual assassins are just wandering wraiths does not make much sense to me.
But they ARE wraiths. Assassin is the only class which is composed of wraiths instead of true Eirei. True Heroic Spirits will NOT be summoned as someone else, or in this sense, as an actor to fill the role, as they already have their identities firmly rooted on the legend.
Fuyuki wrote:If a hero in a legend doesn't actually exist, then a wraith with similar abilities or one that shares the same general idea/concept/title is used as the basis for the heroic spirit or one of the many candidates for that heroic spirit.
Since all the 19 individuals who referred themselves as "Hassan-i-Sabbah" have discarded their former identities
as a human (and hero, in a sense) by adopting the name "Hassan", they were no longer considered as Heroic Spirits
. Or at least, genuine Heroic Spirits. They are now just "actors" who play the role of "Old Man of The Mountain".
In the case that there is no certain historical truth that a hero does exist in the past, there will be just "role" in the Throne of Heroes. And the person summoned to fill that "role" of Heroic Spirit is a wraith without identity, whose life was closest to or mostly resembled the "role" in question.
