Talking about Chicle Ruya; Pungara Muyu
Luisa Cadena - How My Father Gathered Chicle in the Rubber Boom
The sap of Lacmellea lactescens was the original source of chewing gum. In the early 20th century its latex was tapped and exported through the same networks that exported Hevea brasilensis and other forms of rubber.
Thorny trunk of Lacmellea lactescens with moth caterpillar. When the caterpillar lifts the point of its tail it displays large false eyes that make it look like a snake. According to tradition the caterpillar can actually grow into a shishin snake.

UIZE JavaScript Framework
MODULES Uize.Dom.VirtualEvents.Edge
1. Introduction
The Uize.Dom.VirtualEvents.Edge module implements virtual DOM events that can be used to detect when the mouse enters / exits nodes at specific edges.
DEVELOPERS: Chris van Rensburg
1.1. In a Nutshell
The virtual DOM events provided in the Uize.Dom.VirtualEvents.Edge module make it easy to wire up DOM nodes so that different things occur depending on at which edge the user enters a DOM node.
So, for example, you could perform a different action when the user mouses over a node from the left side than when the user mouses over the same node from the right side.
1.1.1. How It Works
Edge virtual DOM events are implemented for a node by comparing the coordinates of the mouse - at the time that a mouseover or mouseout real DOM event occurs for a node - to the coordinates of the node itself.
Based upon where the mouse is at the time that the mouseover or mouseout event is handled, an edge is determined based upon into which of four triangular divisions of the node the coordinates fall. The node is divided into four triangular segments by diagonal lines that run from top left to bottom right and from top right to bottom left. If the mouse coordinates fall into the leftmost triangular segment, then the left edge is chosen. If the coordinates fall into the topmost segment, then the top edge is chosen. If they fall into the rightmost segment, then the right edge is chosen. Finally, if they fall into the bottommost segment, then the bottom edge is chosen. If the edge at which a mouseover or mouseout event occurs corresponds to an edge for which a mouse-enter-at-edge or mouse-exit-at-edge virtual DOM event is wired, then the handler for that event will be executed.
1.1.1.1. Limitations
In the overwhelming majority of cases, the rather simple mechanism involved in determining the edge of entry or exit works quite reliably and is very accurate.
However, there are some situations where the edge determination logic can produce what could be considered faulty results. One case is where one is connecting to a machine remotely through a system such as Microsoft's Remote Desktop Protocol, where latencies can be introduced into the delivery of mouse events (that originate remotely) to the machine being controlled. While this is a somewhat rare case, the result is that a mouseover or mouseout event can be fired long after the mouse has already crossed an edge boundary of a node. Without having tracked mouse movement over time, where the mouse is at the time that the mouseover or mouseout event is first fired can provide a misleading indication of how the mouse got there. It could appear closest to the top edge, but it may have gotten there by entering from the left.
Another (more likely) case where edge determination can become confused is when a node for which a mouse-enter-at-edge or mouse-exit-at-edge virtual DOM event is wired is being partially overlapped by another node, and where it is possible to enter or exit the wired node by transitioning between the wired node and the obscuring node. Neither of the two cases mentioned sufficiently detract from the value of the edge virtual DOM events, however.

WHAT IS THE VCW?
VCW-Value Creation Wheel is a real-life problem-solving framework, which helps individuals and the key decision makers of organizations, governments, and societies to find customized and consensual solutions for their problems and challenges.
The VCW-Value Creation Wheel helps to identify and solve problems by providing a step-by-step dynamic process for creating value for society and all the stakeholders involved in the value chain (e.g., customers, employees, suppliers, distributors, investors, and shareholders).
The DIANA theoretical framework provides a holistic approach to problem-solving, which supports scientific, technological, managerial, and societal advancements trough a wide range of scientific methodologies and managerial approaches.
The TIAGO practical tool appears as a chameleon framework, completely customized to each specific case and problem, being supported by DIANA's accumulated knowledge over two decades.
WHERE HAS THE VCW BEEN APPLIED?
For more than two decades, the VCW has been applied as a problem-solving tool in companies across different sectors (from start-ups to Fortune 500 companies), public policy projects (from rebranding of cities to creation of innovation cities), individual challenges (e.g. from finding a job to the best place to live), and over 20 schools across different countries specialized in different fields (e.g., business, medical, biotech, engineering and technology, law, and science schools). The VCW is used in over 20 countries for teaching, research, coaching, and consultancy purposes. The VCW and its components received coverage from leading international media (e.g., Time, Wall Street Journal) and scientific publications (e.g., Harvard Business Publishing, Journal of Business Research, JIBS, Springer), and are taught in leading universities across the globe (e.g., Babson College, City University of Hong Kong, Korea University, MIT, Nova University of Lisbon, Vienna University).
WHY THE VCW?
Since no solution is perfect by itself, the VCW has been developed as a meta-framework, capable of integrating and complementing any existing framework, model, tool and/or theory across any field as well as allowing co-creation and partnering with any organization and individual. The VCW has been growing following values of co-creation, collaboration, collective wisdom, cooperation, equal opportunities, open-network, partnership and sharing, supported by principles of innovation,problem-solving, and global value creation. These two decades of collaborative research and open-projects, led to the robustness of the VCW and its current stage of development. To continue on the same path, all non-paid VCW projects conducted within an academic context continue to follow the principles of open-innovation, non-confidentiality, and co-creation.
To learn more about the VCW and two decades of cooperation with companies, executives, scientists, and universities across the world please read Lages, Luis Filipe (2016), "VCW-Value Creation Wheel: Innovation, technology, business, and society", Journal of Business Research, 69(11), 4849-4855.
HOW TO MAKE YOUR TEAM MEETINGS MORE PRODUCTIVE? START WITH A VCWsprint
A VCWsprint should be developed before any team meeting as well as before any VCW project. The VCWsprint takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the team, their know-how about the VCW methodology, complexity of the problem/challenge to be solved, the context, and the number of VCWsprint steps necessary (can be from 1 to 10 steps).
The VCWsprint is composed by a maximun of 10 sequential steps described as follows:
- VCW Phase 1: by KDMs
- Context: Why do you have this problem? Definition of problem/challenge (2m-5m)
- VCW Phase 2: individual
- Brainwriting of ideas/solutions followed by internet search for ideas/solutions (8m-14m)
- Brainwriting of criteria/filters (4m-10m)
- VCW Phase 3: by KDMs with or without the team
- Select key ideas/solutions (2m-4m)
- Select key criteria/filters (2m-4m)
- Rank key filters (2m-4m)
- VCW Phase 4: by everybody
- Value Creation Funnel (5m-10m)
- Concept/protoype (2m-4m)
- VCW Phase 5: by KDMs
- 3Ms: Menpower, Minute, Money (2m-4m)
- Decision about future application of VCW Meta-Framework: Go or NoGo? (1m)
WHICH SERVICES ARE OFFERED BY THE VCW?
The VCW offers courses, training, masterclasses and workshops for universities, executives, companies, organizations, primary schools, trade associations, partnerships between different organizations, event organizers, and NGOs. These workshops are customized and developed by the VCW for team building activities and help organizations and individuals to solve their own problems/challenges.
Additionally, the VCW helps to create VCW Innovation Ecosystems inside those organizations which desire to develop a systematized innovation process (watch example). This VCW Innovation Ecosystem is built on three fundamental layers:
- The VCW Governance Model that establishes the main responsibilities and functions for the innovation management challenges.
- The VCW Framework, which has five phases: 1) Identification of the problem to be solved. 2) Generation of solutions and filters. 3) Selection of main ideas and ranking of the "must have" and "nice to have" filters. 4) The VCF-Value Creation Funnel, followed by the development of concepts and prototypes. 5) The final decision phase, in which the implementation model for the final solution(s) is developed.
- The Network of Partners / Stakeholders, fundamental to increase the potential of the VCW framework. Through co-creation with all the stakeholders involved in the value chain (e.g., customers, employees, suppliers, distributors, investors, and shareholders), it becomes possible to solve the different problems/challenges in a consensual manner.

HOW DIFFERENT IS THE VCW FROM EXISTING TOOLS & FRAMEWORKS?
The VCW creates value by offering unique solutions:
1) The VCW discovers customized, consensual and implementable solutions (Go/No-Go), which are co-created and supported by the key decision makers and a wide range of stakeholders:
- Finds consensus concerning the problem/challenge to address, filters/criteria and ideas/solutions,
- Finds the right bridge between a wide range of individuals:
- different key decision makers,
- diferent internal and external stakeholders,
- supporters and divergent thinkers (e.g. devil's advocate, skeptical people, laggards, late-adopters, children and/or elderly people),
2) The VCW simplifies and saves resources in the problem-solving process through:
- Involving since the begining of the process the key decision makers on critical steps:
- defining the problem/challenge, 3Ms, diagnosis & KPIs,
- analysing solutions and filters,
- Purifying, organizing, separating, selecting and prioritizing:
- Ideas/solutions: i.e. direct answers to the challenge/problem to be solved (phase typically often supported by creativity)
- Filters/criteria: i.e. choice criteria related to the selection of the ideas/solutions to solve the challenge/problem (phase typically supported by rationality).
- Conducting individual VCWsprints & combining multiple VCWsprints.
- Managing the 3Ms (Manpower, Minute, Money).
- Achieving efficiency and effectiveness (e.g., predicting future mistakes/failures, continuous improvement, optimizing resources, improving productivity)
3) The VCW solves complex challenges and a wide range of paradoxes.
- The VCW has been used to solve high complex challenges, such as:
- paradox of choice,
- limited or lack of choice,
- paradox market-pull versus tech-push,
- paradox global versus local.
The VCW has unique attributes:
1) The VCW is a meta-framework which is simultaneously structured and agile, rational and creative, and does not impose pre-established solutions or frameworks.
- Follows a structured-agile MAP approach (Maximize, Analyze, Prioritize),
- Does not impose or invalidate any idea/solution, filter/criteria or framework,
- The VCW can partner with any organization and/or individual,
- The VCW integrates and/or complements any existing solutions, established theories, tools or frameworks (e.g., organizational tools, 5Whys, situational analysis, RELQUAL, brainwriting, brainstorming, bank of ideas, design thinking, scorecards, BCG Matriz, McKinsey matrix, McRisk Assessment Matrix, SERPVAL, strategic triangle, SCAMPER, business model, business plan, financial plan, KPIs).
- Complements and integrates different parts of any business puzzle, such as:
- an idea/solution and an opportunity/need,
- a value proposition and a business model,
- the different parts ofa marketing plan.
- Allows VCWsprints and frequent re-runs to revisit past steps.
2) The VCW is a transversal problem-solving framework, which can be applied to a wide range of problems/challenges across individuals, organizations, industries and countries.
3) Every VCW project is supported by theory and practice across different fields. The VCW varies along three dimensions of width, lenght and height regarding:
- Theory: DIANADefine, Increase, Assess, Narrow, Act
- Practice: TIAGOTap, Induce, Analyse, Ground, Operate
The variation along these three dimensions


Body Nonverbal Communication
Background: In contemporary society, communication is pretty important for people. However, communication is not always easy to do for diverse reasons.
Actually, body language accounts for 55% of effective communication, and even if the language is incomprehensible or stuck in the expression, it can still be conveyed in other ways, such as jewellery.
Inspired by the application of Laban movement analysis in dancing area, the names of these five brooches are: "Excited", "Depressed", "Suspended", "Collapsing", "Elated".
The designer recorded her body movements and transferred them to 3D shapes, and applied colour to each of them to emphasise the differences.
According to the topic, this collection is supposed to be highly interactive with people, no matter the wearer or viewer. The brooches can be set on a table and rock when somebody touches as well as be worn on the body as brooches which tell viewers something related to the wearer. The design method of being movable helps this collection existing with vitality.

Hong Kong, 1st June 2023, ZEX PR WIRE, In today's business landscape, maintaining a strong brand reputation is crucial for success. A brand reputation audit plays a vital role in identifying strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. KeyGroup, an international consulting company, emphasizes the significance of reputation audits in strategic development planning. Viktoria Yukhnenko, a development advisor at KeyGroup, highlights five reasons why enterprises must prioritize reputational audits:
- Identifying strengths and weaknesses for informed business decisions.
- Improving customer experience based on feedback.
- Enhancing brand image and messaging to align with the target audience.
- Mitigating reputation risks by proactively addressing potential issues.
- Staying ahead of the competition by differentiating and providing a superior customer experience.
"A comprehensive audit encompasses various aspects of a business, enabling necessary changes and improvements in strategy," says Viktoria. "By analyzing critical factors such as company background, goals, target audience, and competitor analysis, effective strategies can be developed to thrive in a competitive marketplace."
One of the significant challenges a brand reputation audit can address is the impact of cancellation culture. Renowned brands and celebrities like Balenciaga, Amazon, and Elon Musk have experienced the consequences of canceling culture. However, they have successfully maintained their visibility and popularity through strong reputation audits, highlighting the importance of reputation management in the face of modern problems.
The culture of cancelation can have severe consequences for companies and individuals, resulting in negative publicity, lost sales, and damage to their reputation. A brand reputation audit can aid in identifying potential risks and taking preventive measures before they escalate. In case of backlash on social media, a reputation check can identify underlying issues and enable corrective action. Moreover, understanding the audience and aligning messaging with their values minimizes the possibility of being canceled.
The impact of a strong reputation audit on a business is undeniable. It helps identify potential risks, improve customer experience, enhance brand image, and stay ahead of the competition. By conducting a brand audit, businesses establish a credible and consistent identity, ultimately improving their reputation. To ensure precise and valuable outcomes, it is recommended to work with an agency that specializes in reputation audits. Their expertise and utilization of the right tools and techniques can maximize the benefits of the audit process.
KeyGroup is an international consulting company dedicated to helping businesses achieve strategic success. With a focus on digital growth, KeyGroup offers comprehensive services to enhance brand image, improve customer experience, and mitigate risks. The team of experienced professionals ensures businesses are equipped to thrive in a competitive and dynamic marketplace.

From A Wiki of Ice and Fire
A food taster is a person tasked with ingesting food or drinks that have been prepared for someone else, to confirm they are safe to eat or drink and devoid of poisons.
Known food tasters
- Ummet, for King Aegon II Targaryen
- Gaemon Palehair, for King Aegon III Targaryen
- King Aerys II Targaryen's food taster, who was forced to suckle at the teats of Prince Viserys's wet nurse before he could be fed.
- Ser Boros Blount, for King Tommen I Baratheon
I begged Lord Arryn to use a taster, in this very room I begged him, but he would not hear of it. Only one who was less than a man would even think of such a thing, he told me.—Varys, to Eddard Stark

SQL Question
Function call in where clause
I have a query as below:
SELECT * FROM Members (NOLOCK)
WHERE Phone= dbo.FormatPhone(@Phone)
Now here I understand that formatting has to be applied on the variable on column. But should I apply it on variable to assign to some other local variable then use it (as below).
Set @SomeVar = dbo.FormatPhone(@Phone)
SELECT *
FROM Members (NOLOCK) WHERE Phone= @SomeVar
Which way is better or both are good?
EDIT: And how is first query different from
SELECT * FROM Members (NOLOCK)
WHERE dbo.FormatPhone(Phone) = @Phone
Answer Source
As usual with SQL, the query is largely irelevant without knowing the actual schema is used against.
Do you have an index on Members.Phone? If no, then it makes no difference how you write the query, they all gonna scan the whole table and performe the same (ie. perform badly). If you do have an index then the way you write the query makes all the difference:
SELECT * FROM Members WHERE Phone= @Phone;
SELECT * FROM Members WHERE Phone= dbo.FormatPhone(@Phone);
SELECT * FROM Members WHERE dbo.FormatPhone(Phone)=@Phone;
First query is guaranteed optimal, will seek the phone on the index.
Second query depends on the characteristics of the dbo.FormatPhone. It may or may not use an optimal seek.
Last query is guaranteed to be bad. Will scan the table.
Also, I removed the NOLOCK hint, it seem the theme of the day... See _URL_ NOLOCK is always the wrong answer. Use snapshot isolation.

'Dad has gone from Sick to Superman'
Organ donation doesn't simply save lives, in the sense of keeping people (barely) alive, but it allows them to lead much fuller, more normal lives, as this inspiring story of a father swimming from Alcatraz to shore to celebrate five years since his double lung transplant shows. It's a great example of how much of a difference a transplant can make to the recipient's quality of life, but also comes with important reminders about the limits of what transplants can achieve "The current average survival period of a lung recipient in the US and Europe is five years. Statistics say that the current 10-year survival rate of a lung transplant patient is 30%, meaning that only one out of every three patients will celebrate their 10th anniversary". Still, even five more years of healthy life is a considerable achievement, and especially valuable for someone like Gavin Maitland with young children.

Basic construction component. Purveyor of Hofstadter's Law; you will always need more of these than you expect, even if you account for Hofstadter's Law.
Size & Weight
A single steel plate weighs 20kg, and is equal to 1 small light armor block. A small light armor block has a surface area of 6x(0.5m x 0.5m) = 6x(0.25m) = 1.5m2. Given these values, plus the generally accepted density of steel of 7.85g/cm3 [1], we can calculate the thickness (or "guage") of the steel plate using this formula [2].
weight (kg) = density (g/cm3) x thickness (mm) x width (m) x length (m)
Rearranging to obtain thickness:
thickness (mm) = weight (kg) / density (g/cm3) / width (m) / length (m)
thickness = 20kg / 7.85g/cm3 / 0.5m / 3m - (using length = 3m, because this is equal to 6x 0.5x0.5 plates placed in a line)
thickness = 1.698514mm = ~1.7mm
Theses calculations hold true for the large light armor block as well, where the 25-fold increase in steel plate count reflects the 25-fold increase in surface area.
It should be noted that the accepted definition of "steel plate" is steel with a guage greater than 6mm. Anything from 0.2mm to 6mm is "steel sheet" (<0.2mm is "steel foil"). Given that the steel plate in Space Engineers has a guage of around 1.7mm, it is actually "steel sheet", not "steel plate".

Is Unconditional Love a Biblical Concept?
Yes and no. First of all, what is it? Unconditional love is the acceptance of a person without him or her meeting any conditions. In other words, it means having affection for someone without establishing limitations. So, unconditional love means loving someone irrespective of that person's behavior. This popular idea of unconditional love is quite contrary to much of what God says in the Bible. It's because humans are flawed, evidenced by our unseemly acts. That's why God provided laws that he … [Read more...]

This study investigates the mechanical properties of cubic silicon nanoparticles with side lengths ranging from 2.7 to 16.3 nm using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation with parallel computing technique. The results reveal that the surface energy of the particles increases significantly as the particle size decreases. Furthermore, having passed the point of maximum compressive load, the phase transformation region of the particles gradually transfers from the core to the surface. The small volume of the current nanoparticles suppresses the nucleation of dislocations, and as a result, the maximum strength and Young's modulus values of all but the smallest of the current nanoparticles are greater than the corresponding values in bulk silicon. Finally, it is found that the silicon nanoparticles with a side length of 10.86 nm exhibit the greatest maximum strength (24 GPa). In nanoparticles with shorter side lengths, the maximum strength decreases significantly as the volume of the nanoparticle is reduced.


3 Point Estimate: Triangular Distribution vs Beta Distribution (PERT)
PMP aspirants often come across the 3 Point Estimate when studying for the PMP exam for the first time. There are 2 different formulas for the 3 Point Estimate, and it is generally not clear to most project managers as to which one to use, and when, or why.
I have written about the 3 point estimation technique quite some time back, about the 2 different formulas and how to use them. This article takes it further, to explain some of the basic differences between the two, and make it easy for you to prepare for the PMP exam, as well as apply this useful estimation technique in your projects.
GET PMP Tips & Mock Questions
The Three Point Estimate technique is used to arrive at a better estimate of the time required to complete a particular activity, work package, and can be rolled up to the entire project. Further, this technique can be used for Time as well as Cost also.
Triangular Distribution: (P + O + ML ) / 3
This is like a simple average of the three estimates. When plotted in a chart, it usually results in a sharp peak, thus the name Triangular Distribution.
Beta Distribution (PERT): (P + O + 4ML ) / 6
This is a weighted average. More weight is given to the most likely. If plotted against a chart, this beta distribution will result in an more uniform, bell shaped curve, called a normal distribution. This has been tested in several different industries, across different countries, and over different time periods, but has always turned out to be more accurate than the 3 point estimate. So this method has become the most used and popular method of choice among project managers.
Online PMP Training
When do you use PERT and when do you use Triangular Distribution?
However, the Beta Distribution is preferred in cases where we have a lot of historical data, and is more useful for similar type of projects, and experts are providing this based on historical evidence & experience. If we are doing a project for the first time, and there is no previous history of similar projects to fall back on, it may make sense to use the Triangular distribution, as there is no basis to give more weight to a particular estimate. Thus, a Triangular Distribution is more suited for judgemental data estimates. These are most likely not based on a lot of experience or expertise… but are more of a guess-timates.
As with all estimates, the more accurate your estimates, the better the Triangular and Beta Distribution curves, and the better we are able to estimate the project risk and its completion on time and on cost.
For PMP exam, look for subtle clues in the exam question. If they talk about a new project, no experience, or not much reliable data available, then it is best to use Triangular distribution.
And if the team is made of experts, this is a similar to previous projects, we need a more accurate estimate etc. then it is best to go for the Beta Distribution using the PERT formula of weighted average.
Hope this helps in your PMP exam preparation and in your real life projects. Do drop a note in the comment below…

1 thought on "3 Point Estimate: Triangular Distribution vs Beta Distribution (PERT)
 1. I respectfully disagree concerning the accuracy of the PERT estimate vs the Triangular estimate. The PERT "expected value" or mean is usually closer to the most likely value based on the 4x weighting of the most likely value. In my opinion this leads to an understated (optimistic) mean that in practice is almost always LESS than p50. Even the simple mean of the triangular distribution tends to be slightly optimistic usually driven by the asymmetrical (skewed) shape of the distribution. Most estimates using the three point technique set the "worst case" further from the most likely than the best case so you end up with a 10, 20, 40 triangle or something similar. In this example, the PERT EV would be 21.6 and the simple mean 23.3.
 In this case the "Most Likely" value has a probability of 33% The 50% probability comes in around 27.8. so the PERT is more optimistic but both PERT and the simple average are both off the mark. Why? The skewed nature of the distribution.
 The skewed value is an admission that more can go wrong than can go right. The long tail o the right side of the distribution almost screams "lognormal" which I contend would be a better estimator in most cases than the simple triangular distribution or the PERT Beta.

Definition: from
Summary Article: Rusk, (David) Dean (_PHONE_) from The Hutchinson Unabridged Encyclopedia with Atlas and Weather guide
US Democrat politician. He was secretary of state to presidents J F Kennedy and L B Johnson 1961–69, and became unpopular through his involvement with the Vietnam War.
He was prominent in Korean War negotiations. Convinced of the need not to appease communist expansionism, he played a key part in the US decision to defend South Korea against invasion by North Korea. However, he advised President Kennedy against the unsuccessful Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961.
Early career Rusk was born in Cherokee County, Georgia, the son of a Presbyterian minister, and studied politics at Oxford University as a Rhodes scholar. He taught political science on his return to the USA, before military service during the World War II, where he was involved in intelligence and guerrilla operations in Burma (now Myanmar). He joined the US State Department after the war and progressed to becoming assistant secretary for Far Eastern affairs 1950–51. In 1952, when the Republican general Dwight Eisenhower was elected president, Rusk left the State Department to become president of the internationalist Rockefeller Foundation.
A hawk Despite criticism from peace campaigners, Rusk never wavered in his advocacy of a firm interventionist line in Vietnam in an effort to halt the perceived spread of communism. Having been appointed secretary of state by Kennedy, he continued in that office under Lyndon Johnson, before retiring in 1969 to teach international law at the University of Georgia. Liberal on social issues but hawkish and internationalist on external matters, Rusk was an archetypal 'defence Democrat'.

Brazilian name: arapaçu-de-bico-torto
|São Paulo state, Brazil
The Black-billed Scythebill is distributed in south-east Brazil and into adjacent areas of Paraguay and Argentina. It is found in Atlantic Rain Forest and secondary woodland, often associated with stands of bamboo.
It has a very long, decurved black bill the colour of which distinguishes it from the other two scythebills found in Brazil; Red-billed Scythebill Campylorhamphus trochilirostris and Curve-billed Scythebill C. procurvoides. Otherwise it is olive-brown above with a black head and nape with white streaks. The wings and tail are chestnut-rufous and the throat is whitish.
|It forages on trunks, as seen in these photos, and on
bamboo and bromeliads where its bill must help it catch its insect
There are recordings and a distribution map on xeno-canto.

Apache Commons logo Apache Commons Exec
Building the command line
You have two ways to create the command line to be executed
 - parsing the entire command line string
 - building the command line incrementally
General Considerations
No matter which approach you are using commons-exec does change your command line arguments in the following two cases
 - when the executable contains forward or backward slashes
 - when a command line argument contains an unquoted string
The following executable arguments
will be translated under Windows to
Parsing the entire command line string
Parsing the command line string is easy to use but you might run into problems when tackling complex scenarios. Therefore this functionality was deprecated in the Ant Exec task.
Let's have a look at few examples you would like to stick to parsing entire command line strings
Spaces in command line arguments
Here we would like to invoke a batch file which contains spaces in the path
cmd.exe /C c:\was51\Web Sphere\AppServer\bin\versionInfo.bat
Due to the space in the file name we have to quote the file name either with single or double quotes otherwise it falls apart into two command line arguments c:\was51\Web and Sphere\AppServer\bin\versionInfo.bat.
String line = "cmd.exe /C 'c:\\was51\\Web Sphere\\AppServer\\bin\\versionInfo.bat'";
Building the Command Line Incrementally
This is the recommended approach and caters also for pre-quoted command line argument.
A simple example
Now we would like to build the following command line
runMemorySud.cmd 10 30 -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:ParallelGCThreads=2
using the following code snippet
CommandLine cmdl = new CommandLine("runMemorySud.cmd");
A complex example
Now let's have a look at the following command line found somewhere in the internet
dotnetfx.exe /q:a /c:"install.exe /l ""\Documents and Settings\myusername\Local Settings\Temp\netfx.log"" /q"
The following code snippet builds the command line using pre-quoted arguments and variable expansion
File file = new File("/Documents and Settings/myusername/Local Settings/Temp/netfx.log");
Map map = new HashMap();
map.put("FILE", file);
cmdl = new CommandLine("dotnetfx.exe");
cmdl.addArgument("/q:a", false);
cmdl.addArgument("/c:\"install.exe /l \"\"${FILE}\"\" /q\"", false);
For the Desperate
When crafting a command line it would be really helpful to see what happens to your command line arguments. The following scripts can be invoked to print your command line arguments for Unix
while [ $# -gt 0 ]
 echo "$1"
and for Windows
IF [%1]==[] GOTO Continue
 _USER_ "%1"

Introduction to Tailwind CSS
Tailwind CSS can be used to style websites in the fastest and easiest way.
Tailwind CSS is basically a utility-first CSS framework for rapidly building custom user interfaces. It is a highly customizable, low-level CSS framework that gives you all of the building blocks you need to build bespoke designs without any annoying opinionated styles you have to fight to override.
The beauty of this thing called tailwind is it doesn't impose design specifications or how your site should look, you simply bring tiny components together to construct a user interface that is unique. What Tailwind simply does is take a 'raw' CSS file, process this CSS file over a configuration file, and produces an output.
Why Tailwind CSS?
- Faster UI building process
- It is a utility-first CSS framework which means we can use utility classes to build custom designs without writing CSS as in the traditional approach.
Advantages of Tailwind CSS:
- No more silly names for CSS classes and Id's.
- Minimum lines of Code in CSS file.
- We can customize the designs to make the components.
- Makes the website responsive.
- Makes the changes in the desired manner.
CSS is global in nature and if make changes in the file the property is changed in all the HTML files linked to it. But with the help of Tailwind CSS we can use utility classes and make local changes.
Installation: There are two ways to use the CSS we can install them on our server or we can use the CDN link as well.
Method 1: Install Tailwind via npm
- Step 1:
npm init -y
- Step 2:
npm install tailwindcss
- Step 3:Use the _USER_ directive to inject Tailwind's base, components, and utility styles into your CSS file.
- Step 4: This is used to create a config file to customize the designs. It is an optional step.
npx tailwindcss init
- Step 5:This command is used to compile style.css is the file that has to be compiled and output.css is the file on which it has to be compiled. If the file output.css is not created earlier then it will automatically be created.
npx tailwindcss build styles.css -o output.css
Method 2: Using Tailwind via CDN
Limitation of Tailwind: But there are some limitations when CDN is used. Some of them are:
- Customize Tailwind's default theme can't be used
- Directives like _USER_, _USER_, etc can't be used
- Can't install third-party plugins
- Google Chrome
- Microsoft Edge

Let $A=k[[t]]$ Let $B$ a flat $A$-finite algebra which is etale and Galois at the generic point.
Then by Artin lemma 3.12 (ii) in his IHES paper on approximation, we know that there exists an integer $c$ such that:
if we have an other $A$-finite flat algebra generically étale and Galois $B'$ such that $B/\pi^{c}\cong B'/\pi^{c}$ implies $B\cong B'$.
Can we be more precise about the value of $c$ for exemple how can we relate it to $B$?
Moreover, can we get a isomorphism $\phi: B\cong B'$ which lifts the isomorphism mod $\pi^{c}$?

text: Criterion of the synchronization (CS) of cells division for S. typhi population is proposed. The criterion is based on the assumption of the normal distribution of cells with different generation time in the population after stressor (shock) action. CS is equal to the ratio of the dispersion of the generation time of cells in the population to the average generation time of the whole population and determined from the parameters of the mathematical model. The quantitative values of the parameters of the mathematical model were obtained by the minimization of error between the calculation and experimental data. CS was used for the evaluation and choice of the optimum stressor action in the synchronization of the division of S. typhi.

This is another core component of Net::CLI::Interact, and its role is to keep track of the current prompt on the connected command line interface. The idea is that most CLI have a prompt where you issue commands, and are returned some output which this module gathers. The prompt is a demarcation between each command and its response data.
Note that although we "keep track" of the prompt, Net::CLI::Interact is not a state machine, and the choice of command issued to the connected device bears no relation to the current (or last matched) prompt.
INTERFACE ^
set_prompt( $prompt_name )
This method will be used most commonly by applications to select and set a prompt from the Phrasebook which matches the current context of the connected CLI session. This allows a sequence of commands to be sent which share the same Prompt.
The name you pass in is looked up in the loaded Phrasebook and the entry's regular expression stored internally. An exception is thrown if the named Prompt is not known.
Typically you would either refer to a Prompt in a Macro, or set the prompt you are expecting once for a sequence of commands in a particular CLI context.
When a Macro completes and it has been defined in the Phrasebook with an explicit named Prompt at the end, we can assume the user is indicating some change of context. Therefore the prompt is automatically updated on such occasions to have the regular expression from that named Prompt.
prompt_re
Returns the current Prompt in the form of a regular expression reference. The Prompt is used as a default to catch the end of command response output, when a Macro has not been set up with explicit Prompt matching.
Typically you would either refer to a Prompt in a Macro, or set the prompt you are expecting once for a sequence of commands in a particular CLI context.
unset_prompt
Use this method to empty the current prompt setting (see above). The effect is that the module will automatically set the Prompt for itself based on the last line of output received from the connected CLI. Do not use this option unless you know what you are doing.
has_set_prompt
Returns True if there is currently a Prompt set, otherwise returns False.
prompt_looks_like( $name )
Returns True if the current prompt matches the given named prompt. This is useful when you wish to make a more specific check on the current prompt.
find_prompt( $wake_up? )
A helper method that consumes output from the connected CLI session until a line matches any one of the named Prompts in the loaded Phrasebook, at which point no more output is consumed. As a consequence the prompt will be set (see above).
This might be used when you're connecting to a device which maintains CLI state between session disconnects (for example a serial console), and you need to discover the current state. However, find_prompt is executed automatically for you if you call a cmd or macro before any interaction with the CLI.
The current device output will be scanned against all known named Prompts. If nothing is found, the default behaviour is then to send the content of our wake_up slot (see below), and try to match again. The idea is that by sending one carriage return, we might be sent a new prompt. If you wish to disable this behaviour, pass a false value into this method.
wake_up
Text sent to a device within the find_prompt method if no output has so far matched any known named Prompt. Default is the value of the output record separator from the Transport (one newline).
last_prompt
Returns the Prompt which most recently was matched and terminated gathering of output from the connected CLI. This is a simple text string.
last_prompt_re
Returns the text which was most recently matched and terminated gathering of output from the connected CLI, as a quote-escaped regular expression with line start and end anchors.

What is Cut-and-clinch
Cut-and-clinch is a mechanism or process used to cut and secure the lead ends of electrical components that have been inserted into a circuit board. This mechanism combines cutting and clinching functions to securely hold the components in place on the printed circuit board.
The cut-and-clinch mechanism consists of a vertically reciprocable spindle and an attached cut and clinch head assembly. The spindle can be rotated to accommodate components placed in various orientations on the printed circuit board. Once the spindle is raised into contact with the underside of the board and the components are inserted into the cut and clinch head assembly, a fluid actuated spreader rod extends to operate the cut and clinch head assembly for cutting and then clinching the leads. The remaining scrap lead portions are disposed of through a scrap chute connected to a collection means.

Compensate for Disturbances in Spring-Mass-Damper System
Since R2024a
This example shows how to compensate for disturbances in a spring-mass-damper system using the Disturbance Compensator block.
Spring-Mass-Damper Model
The spring-mass-damper system consists of two carts of mass m1 and m2, connected to each other through a spring with stiffness coefficient k and a damper with damping coefficient c [1].
Define the values of these physical constants in the model.
k = 1.2;
m1 = 1.5;
m2 = 1.5;
c = 1.2;
You can represent this system as a state-space model with four states x=[x1x2x3x4].
x˙=Apx+Bu(u+w1)+Bdw2y=Cpx
Here:
 - x1 and x2 are the positions of mass 1 and mass 2.
 - x3 and x4 are the velocities of mass 1 and mass 2.
 - u is the control input acting on mass 1.
 - y is the measured output.
 - w1 and w2 are the disturbances acting on mass 1 and mass 2.
In this example, set w1=0, thus the disturbance w2 and control input u come from different channels.
Specify the state-space model for the plant Gp.
Ap = [0, 0, 1, 0;
 0, 0, 0, 1;
 -k/m1, k/m1, -c/m1, c/m1;
 k/m2, -k/m2, c/m2, -c/m2];
Bu = [0;0;1/m1;0];
Bd = [0;0;0;1/m2];
Cp = [0, 1, 0, 0];
Bp = [Bu,Bd];
Gp = ss(Ap,Bp,Cp,0);
Plant Knowledge for Control Design
You can approximate a mathematical model of the spring-mass-damper system by taking higher-order derivatives of y in the dynamics equation until you find an explicit dependence on the input u. Here, the approximation is given by y(4)=km1m2u+d, where d represents unknown dynamics and disturbances in the system. You cannot approximate these dynamics well with a single or double integrator. Therefore, the Active Disturbance Rejection Control block is not suitable for control design and may not achieve a good performance. In this example, use the Disturbance Compensator block for satisfactory performance.
For controller design, the example considers two levels of plant knowledge.
 - Minimal knowledge of plant model: y(4)=f(t)+bu, where f(t) denotes the unknown dynamics and disturbances of the system model.
 - Full knowledge of plant model: x˙=Apx+Buu+Bdw2y=Cpx.
Specify the model information for controller design with minimal plant model.
b = k/(m1*m2);
A1 = [0, 1, 0, 0;
 0, 0, 1, 0;
 0, 0, 0, 1;
 0, 0, 0, 0];
B1 = [0;0;0;b];
C1 = [1, 0, 0, 0];
sys1 = ss(A1,B1,C1,0);
Specify the model information for controller design with full plant model.
sys2 = ss(Ap,Bu,Cp,0);
Design Controller for Disturbance Compensation
First consider the case where you have full knowledge of plant model. When the variant of Disturbance Compensation is set to full knowledge, the Disturbance Compensator block is configured to have these five inports in the model.
 - Nominal controller u0
 - Plant output y
 - Disturbance input matrix Bd
 - Observer gain matrix L
 - Disturbance compensation gain Kd
Design a nominal state-feedback controller u0=Kxˆ at bandwidth wc=1rad/s.
wc = 1;
Specify the pole locations and differences.
dist = 1e-3; % pole location differences
p = -[wc,wc+dist,wc+dist*2,wc+dist*3]; % pole locations
To calculate the state-feedback matrix for both plant models, use the place command.
K2 = place(Ap,-Bu,p); % K2 for full knowledge of plant model
K1 = place(A1,-B1,p); % K1 for minimal knowledge of plant model
Design the observer gain matrix L at bandwidth wo=5 rad/s.
Specify the pole locations and spacing, extended model matrices, and use the place command to obtain the gain matrix.
wo = 5; % observer bandwidth
dist = 1e-2; % pole location differences
p = -[wo,wo+dist,wo+dist*2,wo+dist*3,wo+dist*4];% pole locations
Ae = [Ap,Bd;zeros(1,4),0]; % extended model matrix
Ce = [Cp,0]; % extended model matrix
L = place(Ae',Ce',p)'; % observer gain matrix
Compute the disturbance compensation gain Kd based on [2]. For discrete-time modeling, you calculate the observer gain L and disturbance gain Kd matrices differently [3].
Af = Ap+Bu*K2;
Kd = -(Cp/Af*Bu)\(Cp/Af*Bd);
Open the Simulink® model with full knowledge of plant model.
mdl = 'scdSpringMassDamper';
open_system(mdl)
level = 2; % for full knowledge of plant model
Simulate the model and view the results.
out = sim(mdl);
logsout = out.logsout;
y1 = logsout.getElement('y');
y1data = y1.Values.Data(:,:)';
plot(y1.Values.Time,y1data);
xlabel('time')
ylabel('y')
grid on;
hold on;
Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel time, ylabel y contains an object of type line.
The plot shows that the disturbance is fully rejected within 10 seconds.
Compare Results
For the case where you have minimal knowledge of plant model, the linear relationship Bd=m1kB1 holds. The Disturbance Compensator block also lets you automatically computes L and Kd using the block parameters. For the nominal control u0=Kxˆ, you computed the state feedback gains K1 at the bandwidth wc=1rad/s in the previous section. When the variant of Disturbance Compensation is set to minimal knowledge, the Disturbance Compensator block is configured to have two default inports as shown in the model.
Set controller with minimal knowledge. Simulate the model and view the results.
level = 1; % for minimal knowledge of plant model
out = sim(mdl);
logsout = out.logsout;
y2 = logsout.getElement('y');
y2data = y2.Values.Data(:,:)';
plot(y2.Values.Time,y2data);
legend('full knowledge','minimal knowledge')
Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel time, ylabel y contains 2 objects of type line. These objects represent full knowledge, minimal knowledge.
The plot shows that, for this example, more knowledge of plant model leads to better disturbance rejection performance given the same controller and observer bandwidth.
Close the model.

The lands ceded to the McMullen colony were between the towns of Periube and Connceicao - nearly 500 square miles.
It was later groups of emigrants, led by Charles Nathan, Ballard Dunn, George Barnsley and others, who joined Americans at a place known then as Santa Barbra,in a district of San Palo. In 1904 it was determined that the name of the district should be changed to reflect the original settlers. Santa Barbara was re-named Distrito de Paz de Vila Americana - or simply Americana.
So to answer the question asked, no, the McMullan colony was not the colony known as Americana, although some members of the McMullan colony did move into that colony.
Americana, in San Palo, was founded after the McMullan colony.

Edinburgh / Mountain View, 10 February 2022. – Dawn Aerospace announced it is providing satellite propulsion systems to hyperspectral Earth imaging company Pixxel, who is building a health monitor for the planet through a constellation of hyperspectral imaging small satellites.
The constellation will provide productivity and environmental data and will benefit industries such as agriculture, resources, energy, and sustainability. Pixxel's technology is able to obtain 50 times more information than standard multispectral imaging, by capturing exact chemical signatures. It is capable of flagging pest infestations, crop diseases, air and water pollution, and detecting oil spills and gas leaks.
Dawn's propulsion modules will enable the satellites to maneuver into orbit, manage the spacecraft, and de-orbit them responsibly at the end of their life. The first two satellites will launch in the coming months while a fully operational constellation is expected by December 2023.

|Cemetery notes and/or description:|
The cemetery was first used during the battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775. This cemetery was part of the Freedom Trail. British soldiers placed cannon here to bombard Breed's HIll on June 17, 1775. Robert Newman, black educator Prince Hall, and blacks and mulattos who worked in the shipyards of the North End are interred within these ancient grounds dating to 1660.
This cemetery is referred to as BOS.808 Copp's Hill Burying Ground in the "MACRIS Survey of Massachusetts Cemeteries". It was established in 1660.

process; thermal effect; machining
According to an international status report, up to 70% of the errors in cutting production can be traced back to timeand processdependant temperature fluctuations. In particular, thermal effects from processing lead to the deformation of machine components.
This affects the tool and the workpiece. This paper considers the research into interactions between process-related and thermal deformations with a focus on the high-precision machining of large workpieces. Previously conducted investigations have demonstrated the effects of the heat flow into the structures of workpieces during the machining process. As one might expect, deformation occurs, which leads to deviations in shape and position. In the same way, length changes due to process-heat transfer can be observed on the tool side. This leads to displacements of the centre point of the tool, which are dependent on the tool geometry and process parameters. However, resulting production errors can often be reduced by improved process control. Considering an example from the field of mould construction, this problem has been discussed from a practical perspective. Starting with experimental analyses, the heat flow into the workpiece related to the inherent deformation was measured. This was realised using thermographic systems and displacement sensors. Relevant parameters that have a significant influence on the process were to be identified in these tests. Heat-transfer effects were analysed while varying these parameters. In the same way, this should provide support for simulative analyses and facilitate the verification of these analyses. Using computer models, it was possible to detect and evaluate thermoelastic displacements before the processing. Based on this, the findings led to appropriate countermeasures, such as the use of a modified machining sequence. The aim of all of these investigations is the development of optimal machining strategies to help reduce manufacturing errors.

Ray Kurzweil speaks
Interesting speech by Kurzweil on YouTube today.
Someone asked a question at the end, asking:
With the improvement in speed of digital bits (and the slower transfer within the human brain), one day soon it may be faster to communicate person to person than within your own body. What does this mean socially?
It's an interesting question, but I think it is not really a good question. Within the human body, most communication already takes place quite slowly, in the form of sending proteins and other chemicals around. In my opinion, normal speech already travels faster than the human circuitry. Does that mean that we are more communal than our bodies? Yes and no, of course. It means that things are different now because humans can talk. Will computers and digital communications mean differences in our society? I think yes, but not necessarily differences more than people's society is different from animals.
I mean, look at bees. They communicate and live a hive like existence. That is because their communication only works when they are basically touching each other. Unless people have to be touching each other, I disagree that digital communications will make us more like bees. I suggest it will make us less communal.

| Comparing Environmental and Biological Surrogates for Biodiversity at a Local Scale |
Yohay Carmel A1 and Liron Stoller-Cavari A1
A1 Division of Environmental, Water and Agricultural Engineering, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Technion—Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa 32000, Israel
A recent debate concerns the relative merit of the two major types of surrogates for biodiversity, biological surrogates and environmental surrogates. Evidence, in the form of direct comparison of these two surrogate types, is scarce. We conducted a direct comparison of the performance of a series of biological and environmental surrogates, at a local scale (300 km2), which is often the relevant scale for land planning and management. Performance was referred to as the degree of surrogate congruence with a spatial pattern of diversity of woody species, of geophytes, and of land snails. "Environmental domains", surrogates based on numerical classification of environmental variables (topography, soil, and vegetation cover), outperformed other environmental surrogates (qualitatively delineated vegetation units and physiographic land types). The environmental domains surrogates were robust to subjective decisions on a number of classes and on input variables that drove the classification. The best biological surrogate was the woody species diversity pattern, with performance similar to that of the environmental domains. Our results support the notion that environmental domains may be reliable and cost-effective surrogates for biodiversity at small scales, particularly in data-poor regions.

Step 2: Write the CMP entity beans without relationships
This step is important, but not mandatory. Developing the beans without the relationships is a simple pragmatic approach I usually take in the development process. Testing the basic getters and setters is easier without the relationships. This would be the first step in testing your beans, prior to testing the relationships. As you get used to the EJB 2.0 model, you can begin to merge Steps 2 and 3.
I will focus on the Order table that has a one-to-many relationship with LineItemCustomer. I will introduce a few simple EJBGen tags.
Again, remember EJBGen's main advantage here: we only work on the bean class; EJBGen generates the rest. The bean class without the relationships looks like this:
package org.jyperion.order;
import org.jyperion.framework.AbstractEntityBean;
import org.jyperion.framework.PrimaryKeyGenerator;
/**

 *
 * @ejbgen:entity
 * ejb-name = OrderBean

 public abstract String getStatus();
 public abstract void setStatus(String status);
 /**

 public abstract Boolean getCreditApproved();
 public abstract void setCreditApproved(Boolean creditApproved);

This bean class is part of the org.jyperion.order package that you can find in the source code.

'The Drive for Purity' Workshop Success
'The Drive for Purity' Workshop Success
'The Drive for Purity', the final workshop part of the international project 'Rethinking Reform _PHONE_', led and organised by Professor Julia Barrow and Dr Ceri Pitches, proved highly successful.
Rethinking Reform _PHONE_
'The Drive for Purity' workshop is part of a larger international project, titled 'Rethinking Reform _PHONE_: Conceptualising Change in Medieval Religious Institutions', funded by the the Leverhulme Trust. This project brings together medieval and modernist scholars in an informal environment from across Europe, to discuss how changes in medieval churches were understood and explained in their own day and how they have been reinterpreted in post-Reformation and especially post-Napoleonic historical writing.
The project is coordinated by the University of Leeds, with partners from the University of East Anglia (UEA), University of Paris VIII, University of Mainz, KU (Catholic University), Leuven, Ghent University, and Durham University. Previous workshops were held in January 2017 (York), September 2017 (KU Leuven), and April 2018 (Leeds). 'The Drive for Purity' is the final workshop, and was held in September 2018 (Mainz). These workshops gave scholars the chance to reflect on the choice of vocabulary used to define changes between the early Middle Ages and the twelfth century and also the ways in which medieval institutions and individuals created narratives of change.
Julia Barrow, Professor in Medieval Studies (University of Leeds), is the Principal Investigator of this project (pictured above), and Ceri Pitches is the network Facilitator (University of Leeds) (pictured below).
A final conference titled Reconceptualising Reform will bring together the themes of all four previous workshops and conclude the discussion. This conference will be held at Ghent University in April or late May 2019. More details, when available, can be found on the project website.
