About Craig
Craig Hospital in Englewood, Colorado is one of the most established rehabilitation hospitals in the world. Our patient outcomes are some of the best in the field of rehabilitative medicine. Craig Hospital is a private, non-profit, free-standing hospital licensed by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, and is accredited by the Joint Commission.
Craig Hospital Patients
Over the past five decades Craig Hospital has helped more than 31,000 patients with spinal cord and traumatic brain injuries. Each year, Craig Hospital treats and average of 500 inpatients and 1,400 outpatients. One of the most important benefits of Craig is the opportunity for patients with similar ages, backgrounds and injuries to teach, encourage and support one another during rehabilitation. At any given time, there are approximately 50-55 inpatients with spinal cord injury and 25-30 with traumatic brain injury.
Rehabilitation at Craig
Craig provides a highly individualized and personal approach to treatment, focusing on the patient's physical, cognitive, and psychological well-being. Craig sets high expectations for patient participation in therapy and helps patients set their own high expectations.
Patients typically stay in the inpatient program for two to four months. Length of stay is individualized based on diagnosis, severity of injury, rate of progress and possibility complications.
Each patient and family has a consistent interdisciplinary team of professionals that includes: a physician, nurses, physical therapist, occupational therapist, speech pathologist, neuropsychologist, clinical care manager, respiratory therapist, recreational therapist and others. The team meets regularly with the patient and family to set goals, develop treatment plans, review progress and coordinate services needed at home following discharge.
Craig therapists regularly take patients into the community and the mountains for valuable, real-life learning experiences such as navigating streets, rough terrain, and public buildings, and interacting with the public, etc.
Patient Outcomes
On average, Craig graduates are more independent when they are discharged; functionally make greater gains during their initial treatment, are discharged home at higher rates, are more functionally independence and require less attendant care and have fewer re-hospitalizations than other rehab facilities.
Return to work and school averages exceed the averages of other rehabilitation programs across the country. A high rate of return to work and school results in greater productivity, greater contribution to the economy, decreased burden on taxpayers and welfare programs and greater patient satisfaction with life.

The Harley Therapy platform will always show times in the timezone that the device you are using is set to.
So if you visit another country and your phone or laptop is set to the local time, this is the time that you will see in your calendar and on all appointments.
However the first time you visit your calendar in this new location you will be presented with the following dialog:
What this means is that although you are viewing the calendar in your local timezone, your working hours are tied to a different one. If the relationship between the two timezones changes during the year this means that your working times may vary on a week to week basis in this new timezone.
Note in general you should not select Move my working times unless you are actually moving to this timezone permanently.
If you are planning on staying in this timezone you can Move your working times which will convert the times from the existing timezone to the new one based on the current difference between the timezones. In the above example a working time from 13:00 to 17:00 in the UK would move to a working time from 08:00 to 12:00 in New York (or 09:00 to 13:00 at some times of the year).
Anchoring working times to a timezone is required to manage changes in daylight savings time that occur at varying times around the world.
If you are just in that location temporarily you can click on Ignore, but if you then wish to edit your working hours they will be shown in your anchor timezone with a warning, e.g. if your timezone was set to New York and you were viewing in the UK the times you would still edit them in the New York timezone.
When viewing your working times in another timezone your working times may vary from week to week if the timezone you are located in does not have daylight savings time changes aligned to your normal time zone.
You can find out more out this in our article describing what the effect on your working hours is when you are outside your normal timezone.

Sketch Of Penis On Mars? Who (On Earth) Drew It?
There are moments that remind us of one thing -- A solemn subject though it might be, Science too can sometimes offer us some doses of humor!
The Internet went frenzy Wednesday after the picture of a supposed sketch of an erect penis on the surface of Mars was posted by the user of a social networking site. Many individuals suggested that a driver of a robot sent to Mars nine years ago drew it on purpose out of boredom or mischievousness (or both).
NASA's $820-million exploration rovers called Spirit and Opportunity were sent to mars in 2003. They landed there in 2004 after which they started strolling around in search of water, a vital sign of the possibility of life in the planet.

But while the pair of robots were driven around, they left criss-crossing marks on the surface of the Red Planet that appear like the sketch of an erect penis and testicles.
Whether an accident or a well-orchestrated work of "art" from a pervert scientist, the cosmic phallus was spotted Tuesday night by a Reddit member with the account name "radioactive_toy" who posted the picture online saying "I just realized that NASA drew a penis on Mars".
The photo and the NASA webpage associated with it were jammed with a surge of online traffic following the eccentric revelation.
Science publications and online forums have been posting humorous articles on the cosmic manhood. The Register headlined the story with a bold and capitalized "COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO: NASA rovers scrawl giant willy on Mars" while the science news website Space.com questioned: "Has juvenile humor landed on Mars?"
And as science did give us a reason to giggle today, there are moments which remind us of another peculiar thing -- News is not always a SERIOUS thing.

Alternative ways to slice/manage data using PARFOR
6 views (last 30 days)
Hello,
I am a beginner MATLAB user, hence probably my question seems simple but I have spent quite a bit of time trying to find solutions for this.
I essentially have a large number of variables, or arrays of data (over 130) that are populated by data generated in a parfor loop (I am keen to use parfor because the script will run through quite large amounts of data, and is significantly more efficient).
As I have said it is a large number of arrays, and the way I am creating the emtpty arrays, and then populating them and managing them later in the scrip is just very line-consuming and does not look good to me.
The script (this is a very simplified example to illustrate the problem) looks like this:
Data = rand(1,1000);
A = nan(1,1000);
B = nan(1,1000);
C = nan(1,1000);
D = nan(1,1000);
E = nan(1,1000);
% (in my cript there is 130 variables )
parfor i = 1:1000
a = (Data(1,i) * 526^3)/5;
b = (Data(1,i) * 255^2)/6;
c = a*b;
d = a/b;
e = a^b;
A(1,i) = a;
B(1,i) = b;
C(1,i) = c;
D(1,i) = d;
E(1,i) = e;
end
But ideally I would like to do something like this:
Data = rand(1,1000);
SolCell = {'A'; 'B'; 'C'; 'D'; 'E'};
for i = 1: size(SolCell,1)
SolCell{i,2} = nan(1,1000);
end
parfor i = 1:1000
a = (Data(1,i) * 526^3)/5;
b = (Data(1,i) * 255^2)/6;
c = a*b;
d = a/b;
e = a^b;
SolCell{1,2}(i) = a;
SolCell{2,2}(i) = b;
SolCell{3,2}(i) = c;
SolCell{4,2}(i) = d;
SolCell{5,2}(i) = e;
end
But this results in a 'variable classification' error, as parfor does not like structures or cells.
Thank you very much in advance for your help!

parfor can work with struct and cell, but it's often a bit tricky because you need to satisfy the requirement that the slicing indexing is the first level of indexing. In your example, you're attempting to slice in the last index position. In this case, I would be tempted to have the parfor loop emit a single numeric matrix, and then post-process it into the desired form outside parfor. (Simple reindexing such as that will be more efficient outside parfor anyway). So, something like this (untested...):
out = nan(5, 1000);
parfor i = 1:1000
% ... calculate a,b,c,d,e
% Fill a slice of "out"
out(:, i) = [a,b,c,d,e];
end
% Convert "out"
SolCell = {'A'; 'B'; 'C'; 'D'; 'E'};
for i = 1:size(SolCell,1)
% Pick out a row of "out"
SolCell{i,2} = out(i,:);
end

That seems to work, many thanks for your help! Super useful.
I think I understand better the indexing requirement, and essentially there is no solution for that since "parfor" does not allow it, but we can always post-process outside of the parfor loop in a (still) efficient way.

Prevalence and Impact of Late Defecation in the Critically Ill, Thermally Injured Adult Patient
ARMY INST OF SURGICAL RESEARCH FORT SAM HOUSTON TX
Pagination or Media Count:
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of late defecation absence of laxation for more than 6 days after admission as an indicator of lower-gastrointestinal GI tract dysfunction in burn patients. In addition, the authors wanted to determine whether the addition of polyethylene glycol 3350 to the standard bowel regimen led to improvement in markers of lower-GI function and outcomes. The authors conducted a retrospective chart review of patients admitted to the burn intensive care unit during a 26-month period. Inclusion criteria were 20 or more TBSA burn, requirement for mechanical ventilation, and age over 18 years. Of 83 patients included, the prevalence of late defecation was 36.1 n 30. There was no association between late defecation and mortality. Patients with late defecation had more frequent episodes of constipation after first defecation P.03, of feeding intolerance P.007, and received total parenteral nutrition more frequently P.005. The addition of polyethylene glycol to the standard bowel regimen did not affect markers of lower-GI function. Late defecation occurs in more than one third of critically ill burn patients. Late defecation was associated with ongoing lower-GI dysfunction, feeding intolerance, and the use of total parenteral nutrition. The causal relationship between these problems has not been determined. A prospective study at the authors institution is currently planned to attempt to validate late defecation as a marker of lower-GI tract dysfunction, determine its relationship to various outcomes, and determine risk factors for its development.

Bridge has always been awe and an engineered masterpiece across the globe. Amazingly, there are several bridges in the world that we never thought could happen. The idea itself looked impossible in terms of construction and several other factors. But here they are today connecting cities and people. These bridges have stood the test of time and proven to be work of pure brilliance. Every nation has a story to tell about bridges within its territory. Such is the case with Nigeria.
Despite the presence of many bridges in the country, the proposed Fourth Mainland bridge in Lagos couldn't come at a better time. This is because Lagos has a strong reputation for severe traffic. Having a new bridge might be an alternative solution to the connecting problems in some parts of the state. Here on Naijauto are the factual updates on the Fourth Mainland bridge in Lagos.
Updated facts about the Fourth Mainland bridge in Lagos
1. It was in 2003 during the administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu that the idea of the fourth mainland bridge was brought into light.
2. The primary idea behind the bridge is to proffer solution to the transportation challenges accustomed with rapid growing places like Eti Osa, Lekki and Epe in Lagos.
3. The proposed construction plan for the bridge is to drastically reduce the height of traffic on Carter, Eko and Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos.
4. NLE studio, a renowned architectural firm was responsible for the conceptual design of the proposed fourth mainland bridge.
5. The conceptual design for the bridge by NLE was later approved by the Lagos State government in 2008.
The proposed fourth mainland bridge will have two levels- one for vehicles, other for pedestrians
6. With a highway designed speed of 140km, the bridge is set to be 38km in distance.
7. One of the amazing things about this bridge is that, it is designed to be two-layer bridge. The upper part will be for movement of vehicles while the lower part will serve the purpose for pedestrian and several forms of socio-cultural interactions.
8. There will be eight interchanges on the bridge to ensure efficient inter-connectivity of several cities in the state.
9. The proposed bridge will consist of four-lane dual carriage lane. Each of them will comprise three lanes with 2 meters hard shoulder on each side.
10. The fourth mainland bridge will consider future expansion in carriageway and light rail facility.
11. Over 800 buildings have been marked by the state government for demolition. That space will eventually be used for the construction of the bridge. Those people affected will be duly compensated or get relocated to another part of the state.
12. The bridge will set standard as the first expansion bridge and expressway without any form of funding from the federal government. In concession, the project will be financed by private sector.
13. The current Executive Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode signed a memorandum of understanding in 2016, engaging consortium of firms and finance houses to sponsor the construction of the bridge.
14. The firms that were engaged in involve in the financing of the proposed bridge include Julius Berger Nigeria Limited, Visible Asset Limited (coordinating firm), Access Bank, African Finance Corporation, Hi-tech Construction Company, Eldorado Nigeria Limited, J.P Morgan and Nigerian Westminster Dredging and Marine.
15. The construction cost of the proposed fourth mainland bridge was set at 844 billion naira.
16. After completion, the bridge will overtake the 6 October Bridge (20.5km) in Cairo, as the longest bridge in Africa.
17. The Lagos State government on the 22nd May, 2017, cancelled the entire contract signed with these consortium firms due to delay in the commencement of the agreement.
SIMULATION OF THE PROPOSED LAGOS 4TH MAINLAND BRIDGE
18. Though the government to announce a new concessionaire in 2018, nothing has been heard about it till date.
19. The newly elected governor of Lagos, Mr. Sanwo-Olu once said in his election campaign this year that the construction of this 4th Mainland Bridge would not be prioritized.
So, we hope we get to see this bridge set into motion sooner enough despite the new governor elect, Babajide Sanwo-olu not prioritizing the bridge during his campaign. Though the construction of the bridge may pose many challenges and difficulties, it's a great solution to the traffic problems on the Third Mainland Bridge!

THE DECLINE OF CHINA'S BUDGETARY REVENUE: REASONS AND CONSEQUENCES
The decline of the government revenue share in GDP has become a major concern for Chinese policy makers and many economists. This article analyzes the reasons and the consequences of low government budgetary revenue in China. It is argued that lowered corporate tax rates, small tax bases, and tax evasions are the main reasons for the decline of government revenue share in GDP. Low budgetary revenues have resulted in low budgetary expenditures and growing budget deficits, stimulated the expansion of extra-budgetary and off budgetary revenues, and made the privatization of state enterprises more difficult.

>If you've ever experienced the disappointment of ending a dive too soon for lack of breathing gas or, worse, had to make a hurried ascent because you ran out of air, it may surprise you to learn that your predicament was entirely predictable. With a little planning and some basic calculations, you can estimate how much breathing gas you will need to complete a dive and then take steps to ensure an adequate supply. It's a process that technical divers live by and one that can also be applied to basic open-water diving.
>Surface air consumption (SAC), sometimes called surface gas consumption (SGC), is a measure of your rate of gas usage expressed in pounds per square inch (psi) or, for metric divers, in bars of pressure. It's the first thing you need to know to calculate your gas needs for any given dive.
>Determine Your SAC Rate
>You can determine your SAC on your next dive. When you enter the water, descend to a depth where you have a large set reference point like a smooth section of ocean bottom or the deck of a ship. Fine-tune your buoyancy, then record your bottom time, the depth and the pressure reading on your submersible pressure gauge (SPG). Swim at a comfortable pace for 10 minutes, maintaining a stable depth. At the end of your timed swim, record the pressure reading on your SPG again.
>After your dive, get a sheet of paper, pencil and a calculator. The first step in determining your SAC is calculating how much gas you used for each minute of your timed swim. For example, let's assume your dive was at 33 feet, or 10 meters; that your test segment was 10 minutes in duration and that you used 600 psi or 40 bar of pressure. [Author's note: 600 psi actually equals 41.38 bar. We use 40 bar to simplify the math examples.] So we start by dividing the total gas used by the number of minutes in the segment:
- Imperial: 600 ÷ 10 = 60 psi per minute
- Metric: 40 ÷ 10 = 4 bar per minute
- Imperial: Depth (in feet of sea water) ÷ 33 + 1 = atmospheres absolute of pressure (ATA)
- Metric: Depth (in meters of sea water) ÷ 10 + 1 = atmospheres absolute of pressure (ATA)
- 33 feet ÷ 33 + 1 = 2 ATA. If you use metric: 10 meters ÷ 10 + 1 = 2 ATA
- Imperial: 60 psi ÷ 2 ATA = 30; so our SAC is 30 psi per minute
- Metric: 4 bar ÷ 2 ATA = 2; so our SAC is 2 bar per minute
>As long as you use a tank that has both the same volume and the same pressure rating as the one used in the timed swim, your SAC rate will tell you approximately how much gas you'll breathe each minute at a given depth. Simply multiply your SAC by the atmospheres of pressure at your planned depth. For example: You're planning a dive to 99 feet or 30 meters. That's 4 atmospheres of pressure (99 feet ÷ 33 + 1 = 4 ATA or 30 meters ÷ 10 + 1 = 4 ATA).
>Determining Gas Needs
- Imperial: 30 psi x 4 ATA = 120 psi per minute at depth
- Metric: 2 bar x 4 ATA = 8 bar per minute at depth
>So if you start the dive with a full cylinder at 3,000 psi, or 206 bar, the planning math looks like this:
- Imperial: 3,000 psi ÷ 3 = 1,000 psi as 1/3 of our cylinder. 3,000 – 1,000 = 2,000 psi of useable gas. A rate of 120 psi per minute means you'll have approximately 16.6 minutes of gas at depth (2,000 ÷ 120 = 16.6).
- Metric: 206 bar ÷ 3 = 68.7 bar as 1/3 of our cylinder. 206 – 69 = 137 bar of useable gas. 137 ÷ 8 = 17.1 minutes of dive time.
>In the event that you are diving a tank of a different size or operating pressure, you will need to take two more steps to make your calculations useful. Because pressure ratings on cylinders can vary dramatically — from 2,400 psi to 3,500 psi, or 165 bar to 240 bar — we have to convert cylinder pressures into equivalent volumes of gas and then modify our SAC into a measurement called a Respiratory Minute Volume (RMV). The method of converting these pressures varies depending on whether the diver is using the imperial or metric measurement. For simplicity we will demonstrate each method separately starting with the imperial system.
>Calculating an RMV
>The first step is to find out how much gas volume is contained in each psi of gas in the cylinder used to determine our SAC. We call this number a cylinder conversion factor (CF). To calculate the CF, divide the rated volume of the cylinder in cubic feet by the rated pressure of the cylinder (CF volume ÷ rated psi).
>So for an aluminum 80 (the cylinder used in our test dive scenario) the CF is.0267 (80 ÷ 3,000 =.0267).
>To convert our SAC (30 psi per minute) to an RMV we need to multiply the pressure of gas used by the CF of the cylinder.
- RMV = 30 x 0.0267 = 0.8 cubic feet per minute
- RMV = 2 x 11 = 22 liters per minute
>Let's assume a 108-cubic-foot (17-liter) cylinder rated at 2,640 psi (180 bar) on our same dive to 99 feet (30 meters) or 4 ATA of pressure.
- 108 cubic feet ÷ 3 = 36 cf. 108 – 36 = 72 cubic feet of useable gas volume
- 0.8 x 4 = 3.2 RMV in cubic feet
- 72 ÷ 3.2 = 22.5 minutes of available dive time Metric system
- 17 ÷ 3 = 5.6; 17 – 5.6 = 11.3 liters of useable water volume
- 11.3 x 180 bar of rated pressure = 2,034 liters of usable gas
- 22 x 4 = 88 RMV in liters
- 2,034 ÷ 88 = 23 minutes of available dive time
>Using these calculations, you can estimate your available bottom time. However, this does not absolve a diver of the responsibility to monitor gauges and manage the dive based on actual air consumption (not to mention decompression obligations). If you find yourself swimming into a current, for example, your air consumption rate will be higher than that used in your calculations. On a drift dive where you barely move a muscle, your gas consumption may be lower. To more accurately estimate gas supply needs for highand low-exertion dives, repeat the SAC process swimming at a faster pace and again at a slower pace.
>Estimates vs. Reality
>These simple steps may significantly improve your gas consumption rates and make your dives more enjoyable.
>Use Less Air
>Streamline Your Gear
>When moving through a medium that is 800 times denser than air, even small efficiencies can reap big benefits. Avoid "danglies" by eliminating all unnecessary gear and tucking what you do need inside pockets. Secure gauges and your octopus regulator to your BCD, and route hoses close to your body. When you fin through the water, fold your arms together or clasp your hands behind your back while keeping your fins inside the slipstream created by your tank and torso.
>Fine Tune Your Buoyancy and Trim
>The air cell in most BCDs is located at or near the diver's shoulders, and the weight is located at or near the diver's waist. This alignment of forces pulls the shoulders toward the surface and pushes the lower body toward the bottom, giving the diver the swimming profile of a Mack truck. The more weight you carry, the more this effect is exaggerated. Take a buoyancy course or work with an instructor to fine-tune your weighting, and redistribute your ballast load to achieve a proper horizontal swimming position. Bonus: You'll be adding less air to your BCD to offset ballast, which means you'll have more in the tank to breathe.
>Stop the Leaks
>On every dive, scan your gear for air leaks. Small leaks from your octopus, gauge console or BCD inflator can add up over the course of a dive and, as a matter of safety, indicate gear long overdue for service. Another hidden air thief: a leaky mask. Every time you stop to clear water from your mask, you're wasting breathing gas.

Pixels of Time, Pixels of Stitch
I'm struck by how stitching a cross stitch is like building an image in the form of pixels -- each little x is a point in space grabbed from our vision and transformed into a threaded pixel.
As I get back to work on the self portrait of my eyes, I'm reminded of the beauty in stitching. How it transforms our visual perception of the world by slowing everything down. Each tiny stitch turns our vision into a threaded moment.
Building the image of my eyes, stitch by stitch.
This is true in terms of the time it takes to translate imagery to stitch (the experience of capturing the image by putting the needle into the fabric) and in the tiny physical space of the stitch itself. For example, at burst of light in the contour of my eye socket becomes both a pixel of thread and a pixel of time -- the moment of time it takes to make the stitch.
Transforming a contour into thread.
I've only worked on one other x stitch -- Frame 11 for Aubrey Longley-Cook's RuStitch animation.
Wild Durham Springtime, 2014.
Very slowly getting back in the a groove with my art practice. Rebuilding it pixel by pixel in the green Springtime.
 1. Beautifully stitched and Beautifully said!
 1. Thank you so much, Becky! It's nice to be back to stitching!

The science behind handshakes
A new study suggests shaking hands is more than just a common greeting.
Researchers at Israel's Weizmann Institute of Science say it's actually a way of smelling each other - much like animals do to learn more about one another. Except people are much more discreet.
The researchers used hidden cameras to observe more than 270 people while they waited alone. During that time the volunteers put their hands near their nose 22 percent of the time. Using some sneaky instrument that measured airflow to the nose, researchers realized they were actually sniffing their hands. Staff members eventually greeted some volunteers with a handshake. Participants who shake hands with someone of the same sex were twice as likely to subtly sniff their hands after.
Participants who shook hands with the opposite sex, however, were more likely to sniff their non-shaking hand.
The project's researcher told New Scientist, "People constantly have a hand at their face, they are sniffing it, and they modify that behavior after shaking hands. That demonstrates that the handshaking is a chemosignalling behavior."
Chemosignals are like pheromones that transmit information from our bodies - like sweating when we're afraid. New Scientist reports it's still unclear what chemical signals are exchanged through handshakes, or why there are different results for same-sex and cross-gender handshakes, but the team at Weizmann is now looking at how the signals might be affected in behavioral conditions like autism spectrum disorders.
They believe these results are just the "tip of the iceberg."

Do you have ancestors who migrated to Ontario Canada?
This book is extremely informative
In the year 1792, a proclamation was issued offering 200 acres to each immigrant who could show he was in a position to cultivate and improve the land in York County, Ontario Canada. This brought about a migration of Germans from Somerset County, Pennsylvania, along with other early settlers from Northern Pennsylvania and New York State. Closely followed by families from England, Scotland and Ireland.
The religious history of Vaughan Township, York County, Ontario is related through 74 narratives, one of each congregation or church that has formed since 1796. The accounts blend oral history with well documented research. It is a study in the social fabric and growth of these congregations.

In this article, the topic, "boiler pressure and hot water" with some several facts with relation will be summarized in a brief manner.
In the heating system the boiler pressure is accurately depend upon its manufacturing design although the experts are suggest the ideal boiler pressure inside a heating system is in between 1.0 bar to 2.0 bars. The boiler pressure of a heating system is increases when heating a room or hot water provided.
So, boiler pressure and hot water is depending with each other. The hot water of the heating system is circulated with the help of radiator when the boiler pressure stays at the appropriate ranges especially in the case of when they are from different floors.
When the heating system is circulating the hot water in this case the boiler pressure should not exceed to the range of 3 bars. Sometimes the low pressure can be stop the hot water, so we should always looked upon this reasons.
Does boiler pressure affect hot water?
Yes, the boiler pressure affects hot water to the heating system. If the water of the heating system is not enough hot, then behind of it the reason is the low boiler pressure is affecting the hot water temperature. Especially for the case of combination boiler the boiler pressure can affecting hot water.
The main advantage of the combination boiler is it borders the local options for increasing water pressure. For the case of conventional boiler system a pump can be attached to the boiler to increases the pressure but for the combination boiler attaching a pump in the heating system is impossible just because of the combination boiler takes the water from the mains directly.
How does boiler pressure affect hot water?
If the tank of the heating system is fills in a short time period then the pressure of the boiler will be increases in a short time period, the water of the system will take in the tank also in a short time period.
So, this incident indicates that the lower temperature water will get over the hot water and drive to a smaller fit out of hot water as per required.
If the boiler pressure of the heating system is higher compare to the normal pressure in this case leakage changes in the system is increases. In the other hand if the boiler pressure is too low compare to the normal then the heating system could perform well. The boiler pressure if stand by the 1 bar to 1.5 bar then the system can work easily without facing any problem.
Will hot water work if boiler pressure is low?
The role of the boiler pressure is very important to the heating system. Higher than 2.5 bar pressure of the boiler consider as very high pressure in the other hand lower than 1 bar pressure of the boiler consider as very low pressure.
No, in the heating system hot water could not effectively if the boiler pressure faller too low. If the manometer shows the pressure of the boiler lower than the 1 bar that's mean system facing low boiler pressure and hot water could not circulate to the heating system properly.
On the front section the heating system a pressure gauge is situated. Several times heating system can carry hydraulic pressure gauge in this case a red colour portion of the dial is pointed the lower pressure and higher pressure. In this way easily the boiler pressure of the heating system can be check.
Ways of identify the higher of boiler pressure:-
The ways of identify the higher of boiler pressure in the heating system are listed below,
- If the heating system is turned off in that case the higher of boiler pressure in the heating system can be observe.
- If the dial of the pressure gauge is suddenly reach to the red zone or increases continuously, this incident also indicate the higher of boiler pressure in the heating system.
- If the filling valve of the left is opened or not sealed properly then boiler pressure increases near about 3 bars to the heating system.
- If accidentally excess amount of water is added to the heating system, this case also had proven the incident of higher of boiler pressure to the heating system.
Does boiler need pressure for hot water?
Yes, boiler needs pressure for the hot water. Boiler pressure has a very important role for the hot water. With the help of boiler pressure the heating system start to warm up cold water which is flows through a circuit of radiators and tube work via home.
In case for the combination boiler the boiler pressure is controlled by a filling loop. The filling loop is attached in the combination boiler to the water pipe of the heating system.
Does combi boiler need pressure for hot water?
A combination boiler is variation of boiler which can provide both central heating and hot water in the similar system. The combination boiler can be work for 15 years.
Yes, the combi or combination boiler needs pressure for hot water. The small size of the combi boiler is not required a huge space to install. Combi boiler is trust full on dynamic water pressure from the mains.
Question: – Does the low pressure of the heating system can stop the supply of hot water?
Solution: – Yes, the low pressure of the heating system can stop the supply of hot water.
Low pressure can be appearing for the reason of less amount of hot water in the heating system. The heating system can be work properly when the pressure stays at the range between 1 bar to 1.5 bars. The range easily can be observed via a gauge which term is manometer. The manometer is present in the heating system from where the supplies pipes are emitted.
Boiler pressure and hot water has a very close relationship in the heating system. If hot water can circulate in the heating system in a perfect way without facing any problem then the pressure of the boiler stays at the accurately and boiler can gives a right amount of work efficiency which is directly depend upon the manufacturing level in the industrial field.

Passive resistance is strategic form of defense that avoids violence. It can include civil disobedience, hunger strikes, and other non-aggressive methods.
In 2364, several children aboard the USS Enterprise-D were kidnapped. Their kidnappers were from the hidden planet of Aldea, whose people had lost the ability to reproduce. The eldest child, Wesley Crusher, realized that since the Aldeans did not wish to harm the children, and violent struggle would be futile, the only effective resistance could be passive. He gathered the kidnapped children and instructed them not to take part in Aldean activities or training, to speak with the Aldeans, or even to eat the food they provided. While the resistance itself failed to free the children, they were released by their captors upon the discovery that the population's sterility was caused by radiation that would eventually affect the children as well.

The manchineel tree ("Hippomane mancinella") is a species of flowering plant in the spurge family. It is native to the Caribbean, the U.S. state of Florida, The Bahamas, Mexico, Central America, and northern South America.
The name "manchineel" (sometimes written "manchioneel") as well as the specific epithet "mancinella" is from Spanish manzanilla ("little apple"), from the superficial resemblance of its fruit and leaves to those of an apple tree. A present-day Spanish name is "manzanilla de la muerte", "little apple of death". This refers to the fact that manchineel is one of the most dangerous trees in the world. Manchineel is also known as "the beach apple".
All parts of the tree contain strong toxins, some unidentified. Its milky white sap contains phorbol and other skin irritants, producing strong allergic contact dermatitis.Standing beneath the tree during rain will cause blistering of the skin from mere contact with this liquid (even a small drop of rain with the milky substance in it will cause the skin to blister). The sap has also been known to damage the paint on cars Burning the tree may cause ocular injuries if the smoke reaches the eyes.
The fruit is possibly fatal if eaten.

SANTA YNEZ — Water released from Lake Cachuma will flow through the Santa Ynez River starting on Monday.
The Santa Ynez River Water Conservation District called for a downstream 89-18 water rights release from Lake Cachuma earlier this summer. The water release was approved and is set to begin Monday. Officials anticipate that the release will last through Nov. 1.
This water release will provide about 5,800 acre-feet of water to replenish the groundwater basin along the Santa Ynez River. Groundwater basins along the river are an essential source of water for cities, towns and farms, according to a news release.
For this release, only water from the Above Narrows Account, which is held in Bradbury Dam at Lake Cachuma, will be used.
Given the regional drought, officials say there is a "high probability" that water from the Above Narrows Account and the Below Narrows Account may be needed to replenish the lake if the rainy season is dry. The Below Narrows Account is a water reserve that is also held at Bradbury Dam at Lake Cachuma.
A similar water release was performed in August 2020 to provide water recharge to the groundwater basins along the Santa Ynez River. Last year, about 16,000 acre-feet of water was released from Bradbury Dam to replenish basins.

A review of shelf-life extension studies of Nigerian indigenous fresh fruits and vegetables in the Nigerian Stored Products Research Institute
Ubani, Ozioma Ndubunma* and Okonkwo, Ego Ulu
Nigeria Stored Products Research Institute, 3 km Asa Dam Road, P. M. B. 1489, Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria.
Accepted 23 August, 2021
The Nigerian Stored Products Research Institute has been conducting research in technology development suitable for post-harvest handling of Nigerian indigenous fruits and vegetables for extension of the shelf-life of these commodities, retention of nutrients and aesthetics of fresh produce in storage, enhancement of the nutritional status and earning capacity of both the rural and urban poor through proper handling, storage, marketing and consumption of fruits and vegetables; and production of the best quality fruits/vegetables for local and export markets over three decades. The research work carried out and the technologies developed for handling of Nigerian indigenous fruits/vegetables post-harvest for the farm, market and domestic levels of storage are discussed subsequently. These indigenous fruits and vegetables are prone to chill injury when kept at low temperatures. However, storage structures developed by the Nigerian Stored Products Research Institute over the years, such as the evaporative coolers and cooler baskets which could record some temperature drop from the ambient, have been used in extending the shelf-life of fresh fruits and vegetables. Packing (wrapping) materials have also showed promise in extending shelf life of Nigerian indigenous fresh produce. The season and time of harvest also play an important role in storage of fruits and vegetables. Garden eggs have very short shelf-life of 7 days during the dry harmattan months in Nigeria. Fresh fluted pumpkin Telfairia occidentalis 'ugu' leaves can only be kept for 6 days at 29.1°C and 64.5%rh beyond which physiological breakdown of tissues lead to deterioration and total loss. Fresh pawpaw (Carica papaya L.) fruits, individually wrapped with waxed paper (TIXO) kept at ambient conditions in plastic crate, have a shelf-life of 17 days as compared to fresh pawpaw fruits in evaporative coolers for 7 days. In hot dry weather of the Northern parts of Nigeria, oranges stored in evaporative cooler (EC) Metal-in-Brick wall have a shelf-life of 10 weeks. Adoption of these technologies will play a very vital role in post-harvest loss reduction in fresh fruits and vegetables along the food chain, increase income and improve nutrition for all stakeholders. The interventions to maintain food quality and safety for reduction of postharvest losses in Nigerian indigenous fruits and vegetables through Research activities in NSPRI for three decades are the focus of this review paper.
Key words: Postharvest, technologies, fruits, vegetables, shelf-life.

A Unity College professor will use a $1,000 grant to help undergraduates investigate microscopic invertebrate organisms at Acadia National Park.
Dr. Emma Perry received $1,000 seed money as part of The Unity College Undergraduate Research Mentor Award for her 2015 project titled "Tardigrades of Acadia National Park." Dr. Perry and two student collaborators will investigate terrestrial and marine tardigrades throughout the park.
Tardigrades are tiny invertebrate organisms (.039 of an inch on average) that, despite their size, are big enough to be seen using a low-power microscope. They are found all across the globe and can thrive in some of the most hostile conditions on earth, from the deepest Maine lakes to the vacuum of outer space.
Scientific tardigrade research is important because, according to the Consortium of European Taxonomy Facilities, "biodiversity loss, global warming and other environmental issues need natural history collections and related expertise as sources of knowledge and for reference."
Under Dr. Perry's tutelage, students will conduct fundamental scientific research on the species, with specific objectives and a sound understanding of research techniques such as observing, measuring, sorting, codifying and discovering. Other students are studying tardigrades that live on apple trees on the campus as well as on samples from the Hemlock Ecosystem Management Study plots.
Graduates who have training and skills in taxonomy are crucial in the continuation of biodiversity research and conservation. According to the National Science Foundation, the information is particularly important "on large but poorly known groups such as bacteria, fungi, protists, and numerous marine and terrestrial invertebrates." Research on these species is essential because they "constitute critical elements of food chains and ecosystems and the high proportion of unrecognized species in these groups limit research and progress in many areas of biology and conservation."
Dr. Perry's winning grant proposal included clear research objectives, defined student involvement in all phases of the project, and outlined rigorous student learning outcomes. The annual award is presented by the Unity College Undergraduate Research Program.
Dr. Perry completed her undergraduate degree in zoology at Exeter University, Britain, where she was born and raised.

Mount Moriah Cemetery Research
The Friends of Moriah Moriah have access to the records that were left behind in the office building when the cemetery was abandoned. They are housed off-site, and are not directly accessible to the public.
Due to the size and condition of the cemetery, we do not offer a photography service.
About the Records
- Details on burials from the last few years before the cemetery closed in April 2011 are scarce. We are usually unable to provide grave locations for 2010 and 2011.
- The records usually contain name, burial date, section and lot. They sometimes offer the deceased's approximate age and cause of death. There is no other genealogical information available in the records, and we cannot tell if a headstone or marker is present.
- If your ancestor was moved from another cemetery to Mount Moriah, we cannot search by the original death date. Researchers need to provide the date of re-burial at Mount Moriah.
- In most cases, we are unable to provide details on who purchased a lot.
- There are maps of the cemetery and of most individual sections. For sections without maps, we are unable to pinpoint exact grave locations, as we do not have a reference for where the rows, divisions, or lots are oriented.
We estimate there are nearly 200,000 burials on the nearly 200 acre property. Because there is not a complete index of all burials, please contact us with a detailed request including the first and last name of the deceased, and date of death (day, month, and year).
If you are unsure of a death date, or need to confirm burial at Mount Moriah before requesting a lookup, there are a variety of options.
Pennsylvania Death Certificates (_PHONE_)
Pennsylvania residents can access the PA death certificates online for free. Follow the instructions on this page for access, which requires creating a free ancestry.com account. Those with ancestry.com subscriptions can view the death certificate collection after signing in to the website.
Burial Records at Ancestry.com
Those with a paid ancestry.com account can access a limited set of Mount Moriah Cemetery records. In most cases, you will get the section and plot information from these records. Use Ancestry's Pennsylvania and New Jersey Church and Town Records set found via the Card Catalog. Not all records are available via ancestry.com, but this is a good resource.
Pennsylvania Death Records
FamilySearch offers a variety of Philadelphia records, including death certificates. The collections are accessible with a free user account.
See if your ancestor is already listed on the free findagrave.com website. This is a collaborative website for cataloging the final disposition of the deceased. The Friends of Mount Moriah do not manage the listings here.

text: AbstractGrass-lined spillways are flow conveyance structures with environmental benefits. The stability of such spillways has been typically assessed considering soil erosion, but the design of grass-lined spillways based on hydraulic considerations has rarely been conducted. While subcritical flows in channels with grass have been studied extensively, studies of velocities and flow resistance in supercritical flows in spillways are limited. Herein, this experimental study investigated the application of a multilayer velocity model for supercritical self-aerated flows on a spillway with submerged artificial grass. Velocities were measured with a pitot tube and dual-tip air–water flow conductivity probe, providing the most systematic assessment of velocities and flow resistance in supercritical vegetated flows to date. The velocity distributions were well described with a multilayer velocity model previously developed for subcritical flow conditions, and a constant interfacial velocity supplemented the observed supercritical aerated free-surface layer. Based on this velocity model, explicit expressions for the mean flow velocity and the friction factor were developed for grass-lined spillways, which were also applicable for subcritical flow conditions with comparable vegetation cover. The flow resistance model provides a theoretically developed design option for grass-lined spillways that is solely based on vegetation properties and hydraulic boundary conditions.

This is an unproven proposition I've come across in multiple places.
Suppose $A$ is a commutative Noetherian ring, and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $A$. Then $S^{-1}A$ is Noetherian.
Why is this? I thought about taking some chain of submodules $$ S^{-1}M_1\subset S^{-1}M_2\subset\cdots $$ and pulling back to a chain $$ M_1\subset M_2\subset\cdots $$ of submodules of $A$ which must eventually stablize. Is there more to it than this? I kind of wary of assuming all submodules of $S^{-1}A$ have form $S^{-1}M$ for $M\leq A$.

This is a standard property of localizations:
Theorem. Let $R$ be a commutative ring, and let $S\neq\emptyset$ be a multiplicative subset. Let $M$ be an $R$-module. Let $\varphi\colon R\to S^{-1}R$ be the canonical map ($\varphi(r) = \frac{rs}{s}$), and likewise, by abuse of notation, let $\varphi\colon M\to S^{-1}M$ be the natural map $(\varphi(m) = \frac{sm}{s}$ with $s\in S$).
 1. For every submodule $N$ of $M$, $S^{-1}N = \{\frac{a}{s}\mid a\in N\}$ is a submodule of $S^{-1}M$.
 2. If $L$ is a submodule of $S^{-1}M$, then $\varphi^{-1}(L) = \{m\in M\mid \varphi(m)\in L\}$ is a submodule of $M$.
 3. If $N$ is a submodule of $M$, then $N\subseteq \varphi^{-1}(S^{-1}N)$. Moreover, if $N=\varphi^{-1}(L)$ for some submodule $L$ of $M$, then $L=S^{-1}N$.
Proof. $S^{-1}N$ is nonempty, as it contains $\frac{0}{s}$; it is closed under differences, since $\frac{a}{s}-\frac{b}{t} = \frac{ta-sb}{st}\in S^{-1}N$ if $a,b\in N$. And it is closed under scalar multiplication, since $a\in N$ implies $ra\in N$ for all $r\in R$, so $\frac{r}{t}(\frac{a}{s}) = \frac{ra}{ts}\in S^{-1}N$ if $a\in N$.
Now let $L$ be a submodule of $S^{-1}M$; since $\varphi$ is a module homomorphism, the pullback of a submodule is a submodule, so 2 is immediate.
Again, let $N$ be a submodule of $M$. Then for every $a\in N$ we have $\varphi(a) = \frac{sa}{s}\in S^{-1}N$, since $sa\in N$, hence $a\in \varphi^{-1}(S^{-1}N)$. Now assume that $N=\varphi^{-1}(L)$. If $a\in N$ and $s\in S$, then $\frac{a}{s} = \frac{ssa}{sss} = \frac{s}{ss}\frac{sa}{s} =\frac{s}{ss}\varphi(a)\in L$ (since $\varphi(a)\in L$), hence $S^{-1}N\subseteq L$. Conversely, let $\frac{m}{t}\in L$. Then $\frac{tt}{t}\frac{m}{t} = \frac{(tt)m}{tt}=\varphi(m)\in L$, hence $m\in \varphi^{-1}(L) = N$; thus, $\frac{m}{t}\in S^{-1}N$, proving that $L\subseteq S^{-1}N$. Therefore, $L=S^{-1}N$, as claimed. $\Box$
Corollary. Every submodule of $S^{-1}M$ is of the form $S^{-1}N$ for some submodule $N$ of $M$.

_USER_ I swear to god I've learned so much from your posts on Math.SE :D – user38268 Feb 19 '12 at 1:00
Let $f\colon A \to S^{-1}A$ be the canonical homomorphism. It is true that every ideal $\mathfrak b$ of $S^{-1}A$ is of the form $S^{-1}\mathfrak a = f(\mathfrak a)(S^{-1}A)$ for some ideal $\mathfrak a$ of $A$. We can even take $\mathfrak a = f^{-1}(\mathfrak b)$, and this should help you prove that $S^{-1}A$ is Noetherian using increasing chains.
You can find related facts in and around Proposition 6.4 of Milne.

Thanks for your help again, Dylan. btw, should it say some ideal $\mathfrak{a}$ of $A$? in the second line, not $S^{-1}A$? – Buble Feb 18 '12 at 23:27

Southampton's historic dock gates saved from demolition
SOUTHAMPTON'S famous dock gates have been saved.
A Government preservation order has been placed on the imposing landmarks, just days before they could have been knocked down.
When plans by Associated British Ports (ABP), owners and operators of the city's docks, emerged last month to demolish the distinctive structures, there was a local outcry to save the long-standing landmark gates.
Following a recommendation by English Heritage to the Government, the entrances at Dock Gate 8 and Dock Gate 10 have now been safeguarded for future generations and are officially listed as Grade II buildings.
Heritage watchdog the City of Southampton Society was so concerned over the planned destruction it submitted an application straight away once details of the proposed scheme were made public.
Arthur Jeffery, the society's vice-chairman, said: "We are absolutely delighted at this news as the gates are an important part of the city's historic waterfront.
"These are art deco style gates and the society feared that they could have gone the same way as the former Ocean Terminal in the Eastern Docks back in 1982."
Southampton City Council also recommended the gates to be listed, describing them as "a rare and evocative survival of inter-war maritime port structures of clear special architectural and historical interest".
A Grade II listing means a structure is considered to be nationally important and imposes strict regulations and limitations on future work and repairs, which can be carried out on the structure.
Back in the 1950s when the docks were known as the "Gateway the World" because of the many ships departing to all corners of the globe, these were the two gates through which most people began their journeys.
During the Second World War the structures, especially Dock Gate 8, guarded the docksides, especially during the build-up to D-Day in June, 1944, when more than two million American soldiers left Southampton for the beaches of Normandy.
The same gate was the backdrop when hundreds of dispirited German prisoners of war trudged from the waterfront before being dispersed to various camps.
ABP had wanted permission to demolish the gates and was making preparations for the work to be done at the end of this month.
The port operator argued that the gates, which have stood since the development of the Western Docks in the 1930s, were obstacles standing in the way of progress and demolition would allow bigger loads to enter the port, ease traffic delays and provide extra security facilities.
An ABP spokesman said: "We understand that the Southampton Dock Gates have been listed as Grade II structures. "ABP is of course happy to respect the decision and will take the existing infrastructure into account when planning any future developments."

What is the difference between .ecdata and .ecube data files?
The Elasticube Manager stores the design of the data schema in a .ecube file. It is not the data itself, but actually a "blueprint" of your data structure and source definitions. The .ecube is the data itself already in the Elasticube. You can notice that .ecube files are very small (a few KBs), whereas .ecube files are sensitively larger (may reach GBs depending on your data).

Imagine inhaling all the dust and debris from your horse arena as you and your horse work hard in the horse arena. On average, a resting horse inhales 150 liters of air per minute. Add in strenuous exercise and your horse could realistically suck in 10 times that volume of arena dust. If your horse is older or has a history of respiratory infections or heaves, he could be even more susceptible to airway problems when breathing in airborne arena dust and dirt.
Arena dust is bad. But, maybe you feel a little helpless to control the micro-climate that is your own personal arena dust storm. How exactly can you keep all that arena dust and dirt from rising? Here are some ideas to help you control arena dust, from economical strategies to more expensive ones:
Dust to Dust
It's possible your arena is actually a flat spot in your pasture, or that your arena footing is made up of the existing soil or sod. Not a bad place to start in terms of dust control. If you have plans for adding footing, either all at once or over time, you're a step ahead in terms of choosing a low-dust footing, rather than dealing with a dusty footing already in place. If you're dealing with existing dusty footing, you have choices to help that situation, too.
Before you can start to control dust, you have to understand where it comes from. Basically, dust is made up of small particles that float or fly through the air, because they aren't heavy enough to stay grounded.
Sand is a traditional footing in many regions, especially since it's usually a naturally abundant product. However, depending on where you live, the word "sand" can mean different things. For example, sand derived from the beach is very different in texture and content than glacial sand. What's contained in that sand also plays a role in how much dust a footing will produce.
Wayne Gregory, general manager of Footing Unlimited in Chicago, points to four causes of dust:
1. Footing containing lightweight particles, such as unwashed sand that contains bits of clay, silt or broken-down organic (naturally occurring) materials. "Imagine the particles of sand are the size of a basketball," says Gregory. "In comparison, particles of clay are the size of a pinhead." So, the small bits float into the air, causing dust.
2. Sand pulverized by use. Over time, the weight and concussion of the horse's hooves on the sand will break individual grains into smaller particles, which then become dust. 3. The arena base, usually made of clay or stone dust, begins to rise through the footing, becoming dust.
4. Manure, a fragile organic material left in the arena, gets broken down into small particles that easily go airborne. To protect you and your horse, keep a manure fork and wheelbarrow close by, and scoop any poop left in the arena after your ride. Then roll it off to your compost bin.
Based on what makes up dust, the basic way we control it is by adding weight to small particles, which then keeps them from floating into the air.


writing C++ code.
Copy constructor (copy initializer)
You may have noticed the Copyable protocol in the initial code I added to our playground. Unintended mutation is one of the biggest critiques of reference semantics, so we're going to start by mitigating class mutation. Notice my use of Self with a capitalized "S" as opposed to self with a lowercase "s" in my Copyable protocol. This is no accident. From the Swift docs: "Self refers to the eventual type that conforms to the protocol." If you're unclear as to what differentiates Self from self, I suggest you study up on the subject.
Why not recognize the "problem" of "unintended sharing" outright and make a semantic statement about it with a protocol that will require conforming classes to implement a "copy constructor?" To climb out of my C++ past, I'll use Swift terminology and say "copy initializer." A copy initializer allows us to create an instance of a class using another instance of a class. A new object is created containing the same member properties as another object of the same type. Let me be clear: A fully independent copy of an object is made. Though the new object contains the same data as the original, a new instance (object) is created. The new object is not a reference to the original object. It is a copy and the semantics of the copy initializer makes your intent clear.
Making a copy of a class instance can give you a form of immutability — a baseline to which you can compare future changes to that instance, and/or a way to restore the instance's state if something goes wrong later.
Notice that Swift almost seems to frown on making a copy of a reference type, i.e., a copy of an instance of a class, or, as some would rather put it, getting a copy of an object. I'm not talking about getting another reference to a class, I'm talking about getting an entire, separate copy of a class instance. This frowning on class copying is not an accident. Swift's language architects want the syntax and semantics of the language to be crystal clear. They want developers to be confident that reference types and value types will both have 1) distinct and obvious meanings and that both types will 2) behave consistently. But still, why not be able to safely make a copy of a class instance? I'll show you how in this tutorial by borrowing the copy constructor concept from C++. In Swift, we'd call this a "copy initializer."
Swift is downright difficult about allowing copying of class instances:
It is not possible to overload the default assignment operator (=).
In C++, I would override the assignment operator to allow my class to make deep copies of its instances (i.e., their properties' values) and thus help prevent unwanted changes. I'd also create a copy constructor. I can even turn off assignment in C++ by making my assignment operator private. Swift isn't C++, but does support one of the ideas I've floated, but only if you build a custom version.
Let's make my Line class adopt my Copyable protocol. Copyable requires a conforming class to implement a copy initializer:
I want copy() to instantiate a new instance of my Line class with its current member property values and return that instance. It will do that, but only until I clear up the "Constructing an object of class type 'Self' with a metatype value must use a 'required' initializer" error message as shown in this image:
Line Design
Remember that Line subclasses will inherit copy() and the method's implementation is mandated by the Copyable protocol. copy() calls the designated initializer. Note that in the image above, the first character, i, of this init is underlined, telling me that it needs to be marked as required because, according to the official Swift documentation:
Write the required modifier before the definition of a class initializer to indicate that every subclass of the class must implement that initializer … You must also write the required modifier before every subclass implementation of a required initializer, to indicate that the initializer requirement applies to further subclasses in the chain. You do not write the override modifier when overriding a required designated initializer…
I marked the designated initializer as required and the code now compiles:
I wrote some test code. I've taken the output shown in the right pane corresponding to each line of code and made it into a comment:
I initialized an instance of Line and got a reference to it, line1. I got another reference to the Line instance, line2, made and change to one of its properties and, of course, the change is visible in all references.
I used the copy initializer to get an independent copy of my Line instance. That copy is in fact a unique instance. Changing the copy, lineCopy, has no effect on the original instance as referenced by line1 and line2.
To further prove my copy initializer, I compared line1 and line2 with "the triple-equals identical-to operator (===)". I also compared lineCopy with line1 (and didn't bother with line2, because it's identical to line1):
Is the copy initializer an initializer?
The copy() method you just saw is technically not an initializer, but you see that while it's not called init, it does call init. It's a method that makes a separate, independent copy of a class instance. It doesn't copy a reference, it copies the current contents of an instance's properties and returns a fresh instance of classes that conform to Copyable.
Here's a protocol that indeed requires a by-the-book copy initializer:
While this would be my preferred methodology of requiring and creating copy initializers, I've found that it can cause, in my eyes, unwanted and undue complexities when using inheritance. I'm still working on it and will let you know if I get things functioning up to my standards of readability and maintainability.
Inheriting the copy initializer
Created a descendant with a copy initializer can be little tricky, so let's go ahead and do it to flesh out the concepts required. Let's extend my Line to include some properties that make it easier to draw the line to screen in an iOS app. I'll call the descendant DrawableLine. While the following code looks pretty clean, it does have some issues — issues that when resolved will lead to a better understanding of the topics in this tutorial, and for classes in general:
I need to deal with three problems as described by the Swift compiler: "'required' initializer 'init(beginPoint:endPoint:)' must be provided by subclass of 'Line'," "Overriding declaration requires an 'override' keyword," and "Constructing an object of class type 'Self' with a metatype value must use a 'required' initializer." Here's an image showing the error messages:
ThreeDrawableInheritErrors
I'll make the required changes and explain them with inline code commentary. Here's the working Line descendant, DrawableLine:
Having to implement the required init(beginPoint:endPoint:) in DrawableLine is a small price to pay for the fact that we can keep creating valid copy initializers for each new subclass of Line we dream up in the future. (And it's a heck of a lot better than the side effects I'm still wrestling with when using init(copy: Self) and inheritance.)
Regarding the required keyword, remember that when a class adopts a protocol, it must conform to that protocolAND remember that a class can have… what are they called? Descendents. I once again refer you to the section entitled "Required Initializers" in the Swift documentation.
Let me test the DrawableLine copy initializer to make sure that changes to a copy of an instance do not affect that instance. Notice that, just for giggles, I used the initializer upon which I commented that it was a "convenience constructor — shorthand for rapid prototyping."
Drawing my line in a playground
Let's draw my thinBlackLine to the simulator in the playground. Delete all the boilerplate code at the bottom of the playground starting with this line:
Replace it with the following:
If you need help drawing in a playground, click here. Run the playground and you'll see my line in the "Live View" pane:
ThinBlackLine
Designated initializers
Notice that I used designated initializers in my code samples so far because I've got "Class Inheritance and Initialization" on my mind. I suggest you always craft designated initializers unless there are very extenuating circumstances.
When writing classes, I almost always consider the possibility that I might use inheritance to extend those classes at a later time. First, consider that:
Initialization is the process of preparing an instance of a class, structure, or enumeration for use. This process involves setting an initial value for each stored property on that instance and performing any other setup or initialization that is required before the new instance is ready for use.
Some developers skip creating initializers by marking all class member properties as optional. While sometimes it's necessary to use optional member properties, I try to avoid them as

The Origin of the Phrase "Mind Your Own Beeswax"
Today I found out the origin of the phrase "mind your own beeswax."
"Mind your own beeswax" and "it's none of your beeswax" are common phrases you might hear being shouted by six-year-olds on the school playground. For the uninitiated, they basically mean "mind your own business" or "it's none of your business," but some people think it's more complicated than that.
There is a popular story that says back in the 18th and 19th centuries, women who suffered from disfiguring marks left by small pox used beeswax to smooth out their complexion. One suggested theory is that if someone got too close or was staring too long, a woman would say "mind your own beeswax," as in, "stop staring at mine." Another is that the beeswax would start to melt if a woman sat too close to the fire, and their companions would have to tell them to "mind their own beeswax" which was dripping off their chins.
Beeswax has been commonly used in cosmetics for years, most notably in Burt's Bees products, but this origin story is pure myth. The story started being circulated by a chain e-mail called "Little History Lesson" which made the rounds in 2000.
The first record of "mind your own beeswax" actually appears in 1929 in a children's book, with additional early records following in 1934 and 1939, quite a few years after women were supposedly slathering wax on their faces and coining popular expressions about it.
Aside from there being no documented cases of beeswax being used as a remedy for pockmarks, there are documented medicines in their place. Pockmarks were considered to be a problem, but instead of wax, women would use brightly coloured patches of cloth and stick them on their faces with adhesive to cover the marks. This sounds a little ridiculous, but it would probably sound pretty odd to someone from the 18th and 19th centuries to hear that people today inject botulinum toxin type-A (a.k.a. Botox) into their faces to improve their look. Another trick they used back then was face powder made from lead flakes, which might have covered up their scars but wasn't exactly beneficial to their health.
There is no evidence to suggest that "beeswax" is anything more than a funny, and convenient, substitution for "business." The phrase "mind your own business" has been around for a long time, and is incredibly straightforward: it is a phrase to tell someone to pay attention to their own affairs rather than yours. It's thought that changing "business" to "beeswax" probably softened the phrase, making it sound a little less harsh.
One etymologist, Mark Forsyth, has noted that the word "beeswax" was slang for "tedious bore" in the 19th century. Therefore, the phrase "mind your own beeswax" might in fact be "mind your own, beeswax." That is, "nose out, you bore." However, Forsyth admits that the substitution theory carries a lot of weight too, since the words "business" and "beeswax" sound quite similar.

- The Origin of the Phrase "Close, But No Cigar"
- The Fascinating Origin of the Word "Abracadabra"
- Why We Call Things "The Big Cheese"
- Another popular beeswax theory is that women in the 1800s would sit by the fire making beeswax candles and if they got too close, the wax would begin to melt. As with the others, you'd be hard pressed to find any evidence to back this up—plus, by the mid-1800s, beeswax was starting to be phased out in favour of candles made of animal fat.
- The first cold cream was supposedly invented by Galen, a Greek physician, in the 2nd century A.D. It contained beeswax mixed with olive oil and rosewater
- The same "Little History Lesson" e-mail claimed that beeswax-covered women were also the reason for the phrase "crack a smile." Once a woman had applied her beeswax, she wouldn't be able to smile or the wax would crack around her lips. Again, this isn't true. Crack a smile is related to "crack a joke," which dates back to the 1300s and is simply a figure of speech. It doesn't allude to a physical crack in anything, least of all the fictional wax masks of 19th century women.
- Supposedly, the wax dripping off women's faces also led to the phrase "losing face." This phrase is actually derived from a Chinese expression about moral character and social prestige that was loosely translated into "lose face" in the 1800s. It has nothing to do with wax.
- Other "bee" phrases include "make a bee-line," which refers to going somewhere in the quickest and most direct route possible. This one came about from the idea that bees instinctually know where their hives are and when they are going back home, they go by the most direct route. (In fact, bees have an incredibly advanced method of navigation, including using the sun and adjusting for time of day and the curvature of the earth in calculating the angles of direction they should fly to find things.) Another one is "a bee in your bonnet," which comes from a Scottish translation of Aenid: "hede full of beis." The phrase means being preoccupied with an idea, and comes from the agitated state someone would be in if they had a bee buzzing around their head.
- Speaking of minding your own beeswax, "Little History Lesson" also brought up "minding your P's and Q's," which isn't too common a phrase these days. The chain e-mail claimed it had to do with bar maids "minding the pints and quarts" that their customers were drinking. In truth, it isn't actually known definitively where this expression comes from. Some other theories include telling children to "mind their pleases and thank you's" while another one says it has to do with children learning the difference between lower case p's and q's. An early quotation, from 1602, tells of a "Pee and Kue," which appears to be a type of clothing. Unfortunately, we may never know exactly how this one came about, but given Little History Lesson's track record, it would be a shocker if they actually got one right. 🙂

Earth From Space: Aletsch Glacier, Swiss and Italian Alps
©USGS/ESA
Earth From Space: Aletsch Glacier, Swiss and Italian Alps.
Parts of the Swiss and Italian Alps are pictured in this satellite image. Extending some 1200 km through central Europe, the Alps occupy an area of about 200 000 sq km and are inhabited by some 20 million people.
Near the centre of the image we can see the Aletsch Glacier, the largest in the Alps. The glacier originates in a large, flat area of snow and ice high in the mountains called Concordia, where three smaller glaciers converge. It extends south, and its meltwater creates the Massa River in the valley below.
Owing to climate change, the glaciers in this region are showing long-term retreat. The melting ice has given birth to new lakes, which pose risks such as flooding and landslides to communities below.
Aletsch and the surrounding mountains are part of the Jungfrau-Aletsch protected area, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The area is of major importance to scientific research in geology, geomorphology, climatic change, biology and atmospheric physics. It features a wide diversity of ecosystems, and its landscape has played an important role in European art, literature, mountaineering and alpine tourism.
One particularly popular tourist destination is the city of Interlaken, located between lakes Thun and Brienz, seen in the upper part of the image. From the city, locals and visitors alike have easy access to the mountains and water bodies, and can partake in a variety of outdoor activities during all seasons.
