11.2. Variables
A variable is like a box that you can put numbers in. The box has a name that cannot be changed once given. The inside of the box, the value of the variable, can be changed though.

A variable is named using a hash sign (#) followed by a number.

This is a variable:

#100

If we want to assign a value to the variable (put a number in the box) we write like this:

#100=12.5

From now on, we can use the variable instead of a fixed number in our CNC program.

Like this:

G00 X50 Y#100

Besides numbers, a variable can also be NULL. It means it has not got a value assigned to it. NULL and 0 is not the same thing.

There are different ranges of variables.

Variable range
Type
Function
#0
NULL
#0 is read-only and cannot be given another value than NULL. It is used to set other variables to NULL or to compare variables.
#1 - #33
Local variables
These are used to pass arguments to macros and are local to the macro only.
#100 - #199
Common variables
These are common variables that are shared between macros and main programs. They will be cleared to NULL when a new program starts or when you exit the simulator.
#500 - #999
Common permanent variables
These variables are remembered between runs and even when you exit the simulator.
#300 - #399
Simulator specific reserved range
In this range, which is not used by the Fanuc controller, we store some system values specific to the simulator.
#1000 - #9999
System variables
These variables contain information from the CNC controller or in this case, the simulator. We have made them empty so users can assign simulator values to any numbers for maximal flexibility. On a Fanuc controller, they are fixed.

In your programs, you typically use the common variables. Only use the local ones when you fully understand their behavior. For example, how they change when using nested macros. Be very careful with system variables if you are going to run the program on a real machine, as they can change things in the CNC controller in unexpected ways. In the simulator, you normally use these to read values like the current position, feed and tools for example.

Disentangling thin polymer films
Richard Jones: Many of the most characteristic properties of polymer materials like plastics come from the fact that their long chain molecules get tangled up. Entanglements between different polymer chains behave like knots, which make a polymer liquid behave like a solid over quite perceptible time scales, just like silly putty. The results of a new experiment show that when you make the polymer film very thin - thinner than an individual polymer molecule - the chains become less entangled with each other, with significant effects on their mechanical properties.

COMPULSARY RATING..Construction Industry Development Board Malaysia (CIDB) will soon introduce a Green PASS rating to contractors and developers in the country.
KUALA LUMPUR - Construction Industry Development Board Malaysia (CIDB) will soon introduce a Green PASS rating to contractors and developers in the country.
"Green PASS is an assessment that measures the actual impact of the quantity of greenhouse gas (GHG) by released by building to the environment.
"This evaluation will be done in two phases: construction phase and operational phase of the building.
"For the construction phase it contains five elements, namely assessment of the construction site, building materials, energy, water and waste.
"As for the operational phase of building the three elements that are assessed include building indoor environmental quality (IEQ), energy and water," she said.
Esmaria said this when presenting a paperwork on Green Pass evaluation to over 80 leading local construction industry in the capital recently.
However, she said, for the Green PASS evaluation in the construction phase, the evaluation can only be done once while in the building operation phase, the assessment will be done after the building is completed and occupied by at least 70 percent of the residents.
"Green PASS Rating will be the yardstick used to measure the ability of contractors to produce quality construction," she told the National Construction Portal, 1BINA.my.
It is learned that the database of Green PASS evaluation is borrowed from the United Kingdom which acts as a baseline to measure the conservation of buildings that is under construction or already completed.
Even so, Emasria says that Malaysia will build its own database as it is a dynamic data collection and not rigid.
"For example, if the study found that current energy consumption baseline is 100 kilowatt per meter and found the building in Green PASS assessment process uses only 70 kilowatts per meter which is a saving of 30 percent sure this data will be stored as a reference at any time.
"This is because the saving was calculated using carbon calculator and will be monitored from time to time for record and reference," she said.
Emasria also added that, in that particular case, contractors and developers are eligible for a diamond bonus in scoring if they uses Quality Assessment System in Construction (QLASSIC) and Safety and Health Assessment System in Construction (SHASSIC) for their construction projects.
In the meantime, CIDB previously issued the Construction Industry Standard CIS 19:2012 Draft and requested the public to provide feedback on the Green Performance Assessment System in Construction (Green PASS) draft.
By July, CIDB will work with the Malaysian Green Tech Corporation (MGTC) and several government agencies to test the effectiveness of the Green PASS assessment to construction projects in Malaysia through a pilot project that has been agreed.

FGCU professor tags and tracks rattlesnakes on campus
John Herman caught his first eastern diamondback rattlesnake near the FGCU Food Forest about four years ago. In that moment, he decided to start a research project that would track the snakes' movements on campus.
"We are trying to better understand how this species utilizes the landscape surrounding FGCU, which has both heavily disturbed human habitats and fairly undisturbed conservation areas," Herman said. Herman, who is now an assistant professor of wildlife biology at FGCU, has been using radio telemetry to study snakes for the past 15 years.
In the past three years, he has been tracking the federally threatened eastern indigo snake in South Florida with the help of Win Everham, Dave Ceilley, Brent Jackson and Matt Metcalf.
Radio telemetry is a technology used to transmit data between two distant instruments via radio waves. In this case, the radio transmitters were surgically implanted in the rattlesnakes by Dr. Jeff Noble at the St. Francis Animal Clinic.
"I believe that this is the first time any snake has been tracked using radio telemetry on the FGCU campus," Herman said. "I have been working on obtaining the state permits and proper FGCU IACUC permissions for well over a year now."
The project officially started in December 2015 and is being led by Herman, with the help of some of his undergraduate and graduate students throughout the process. The research is covering main campus and the conservation areas.
"For the safety of the snakes and everyone else, I will not give exact locations," Herman said.
The funds to purchase the radio transmitters and the radio telemetry equipment used in tracking were received from the College of Arts and Sciences and the Department of Biological Sciences. Herman is hoping to determine things such as the snakes' home range size, seasonal habitat use, life history characteristics — such as mating season — and others.
"This is important to inform any current and future management plans that deal with the conservation of this species," Herman said. "Additionally, it is evolutionarily interesting to understand how snakes in general utilize the landscape by making comparisons across species."

Category: Acting, Film
Role: Pauline Carpenter
Director: Chris Newby
Production: British feature film
Release: 1993
Toyah plays the role of Pauline Carpenter in Anchoress, a 1993 British drama film directed by Chris Newby. It was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1993 Cannes Film Festival.
The screenplay is partly based on accounts of an historical female anchorite, Christine Carpenter, who was walled into her anchorhold in a village church in Surrey, England, in 1329. The story revolves around the girl's mystical visions of the Virgin Mary, the Priest who walls her into his village church, and his dislike of her mother, a midwife whom he regards as a witch.
The film is shot in black-and-white and visually resembles the works of Danish filmmaker Carl Theodor Dreyer, especially The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928).
With a cast that includes Christopher Eccleston, Pete Postlethwaite and Toyah Willcox, Chris Newby's (Madagascar Skin) poetic debut feature, Anchoress, is the visually arresting story of religious conflict set in the 14th century, in which a young girl's transcendental vision threatens to upset the foundations of her community.
Inspired by the records of the real Anchoress of Shere, Christine Carpenter (who was voluntarily walled up in a tiny cell adjoining a church), Anchoress vividly evokes life of a remote Medieval village whilst also addressing the gulf between patriarchal power and female ritual and rebellion.

Ford did not write very often, or very much, about George Eliot. His critical reflections on her writing occur on four occasions, in 1911, 1919, 1929 and 1931. This essay contends that, despite the lack of frequency in his critical comment, Eliot had a significant influence on the way in which he thought about, and practised, writing. Discussing each of his treaments of Eliot in detail, and also placing these reactions in context, this chapter concludes with an assessment of perhaps the most significant figure determinng Ford's responses to Eliot: Henry James.

Phone directories
Here is a programming quetion i tried to post with my code but it bunched it up all together and was impossible to read, so here it the question if any one has any ideas....
Create and Maintain Telephone Directories
Write a Visual Basic program to create and maintain telephone directories. Each telephone directory should be contained in a separate text file. In addition, a file named Directories.txt should hold the names of the telephone directories. At any time, names of all the telephone directories should be displayed in a list box. After a telephone directory is selected, it becomes the current phone directory. The following buttons should be available.
1. Create a new telephone directory. (The filename should be provided by an input dialog box.) A new text file should be created for the directory, and the name of the new directory should be added to the Directories.txt file. The Phone Directories listbox should immediately be refreshed to reflect the new directory, and the new directory should be automatically selected from the listbox. Note that this selection should trigger the procedure that sets the current directory and updates the contents of the current directory textbox. Also note that the list of directories is displayed in ascending order in the listbox.
2. Add a listing (as given in textboxes) to the end of the current phone directory. This action should update the text file containing the listings of the current directory and refresh the grid to display the newly added listing.
3. Delete a name (as specified in the â€œNameâ€ text box) from the current phone directory. This action should update the text file containing the listings of the current directory. As is good software development practice, you should prompt the user with a messagebox that allows him to confirm the deletion before any permanent action is taken to delete the entry from the file. The grid should also refresh to show the removal of the listing.
4. Display the names and phone numbers in the current phone directory. (Note that the listings are displayed in ascending order in the table.)
Layout b/c a picture wont upload
There are four text files: friends.text, merchants.txt, Resturants.txt, and theaters.txt
4 buttons: create anew phone dir, add a listing to the current dir, remove a listing from current dir, and display the list in the current dir.
Three text box: Name, Phone number, and current phone dir.
A list box for the dir

Some cases of marine operations with pipes conveying multiphase flows can show structural movements depending on the internal flow dynamics. A floating pipe conveying two-phase gas-liquid flow is an example where a two-way coupling between the internal flow and the structural dynamics is needed. The objectives of the paper is to demonstrate a method for dynamic coupling of slug flow and pipe structure simulations by comparing numerical results with small scale experiments on flexible pipes.
Two small scale experimental setups for two-phase slug flow in floating and submerged flexible pipes were prepared. The experiments were designed to give unstable flows. The air and water flow rates were measured and the pipe movements were video recorded. A new coupled model was established, in which a structural dynamic model has been implemented into a dynamic slug tracking model. Forces due to the internal flow such as fluid weight, friction and centrifugal force were included in the structural model, as well as external fluid drag and soil contact forces among others.
The implemented model can reproduce fairly well the dynamic forces due to the internal flow as well as predict the associated pipe deformations and movements. Slug flow can potentially have an impact on pipe dynamics, in particular for cases where severe slugging can occur.

Fish Farm 1 Design
The Fish Farm problem is designed to have students apply the concepts of ratio and equivalent ratio to distribute a set number of male and female fish into three ponds. Each pond has a target ratio of male-to-female fish. As the students move fish from the tank into the individual ponds, the numerical and graphical displays of the current numbers of male and female fish will change.
For their birthday, the Carp triplets received 26 tropical fish: 13 females and 13 males. They discussed ways to divide the fish among their three tiny backyard ponds. Angel said, "I want the same number of male and female fish in my pond." "Okay," said Molly. "I want three times as many males as females in my pond." "Then I want twice as many females as males in my pond," Gar replied. Is there a way to put all 26 fish into those three ponds, while giving each triplet what he or she wants? Use the applet to explore this question.
Questions / Explorations
- How many male fish and female fish does each triplet get in his or her pond? Describe the work you did to find the solution. (Sample questions you can answer: Into which pond did you put fish first? How many fish of each kind went into that pond? Why? What was your next step? How were you sure a pond had the correct ratio?)
- Given the 13 males and 13 females, what are ALL the possible numbers of male and female fish that would satisfy the ratio of 1 male to 2 female fish in Gar's pond? Explain why these different amounts are equivalent to the ratio 1:2.
- Explain why all possible answers in question 2 result in the same pie graph for Gar's pond.
- Find a different way to distribute all 26 fish among the three ponds in the correct ratios.
- Distribute the fish into the three ponds such that only 1 female fish is left in the large tank. Is there more than one way to distribute the fish and achieve the target ratios?
- Distribute the fish into the three ponds such that only 1 male fish is left in the large tank. Is there more than one way to distribute the fish and achieve the target ratios?
- Review the concept of ratios in the form a:b.
- Print out the matching tasks from the Web page All About Ratios by Cynthia Lanius. Have students work in small groups to discuss these tasks and make convincing arguments about their answers.
- Have students discuss how to represent the ratio 2:3 in a circle graph.
- Have students find a DIFFERENT way to distribute all 26 fish among the three ponds.
- Have students distribute the fish into the three ponds such that only 1 female fish is left in the large tank. Is there more than one way to distribute the fish and achieve the target ratios?
- Have students distribute the fish into the three ponds such that only 1 male fish is left in the large tank. Is there more than one way to distribute the fish and achieve the target ratios?
- Encourage students to develop a procedure and justification for determining whether two ratios are equivalent.
The pre-activity should help students begin to think about the concept of equivalent ratios, and how a ratio might be represented in a circle graph. The post-activity is an extension of the original problem, and should give students more opportunities to experience creating equivalent ratios in both numerical and graphical form.
- understand patterns, relations, and functions
- use mathematical models to represent and understand quantitative relationships
- Number & Operations
- understand and use ratios and proportions to represent quantitative relationships;
- develop, analyze, and explain methods for solving problems involving proportions, such as scaling and finding equivalent ratios
- create and use representations to organize, record, and communicate mathematical ideas
- select, apply, and translate among mathematical representations to solve problems
- use representations to model and interpret physical, social, and mathematical phenomena
- Problem Solving
- solve problems that arise in mathematics and in other contexts
- monitor and reflect on the process of mathematical problem solving
- communicate mathematical thinking coherently and clearly to peers, teachers, and others
- use the language of mathematics to express mathematical ideas precisely
- ePOW (electronic Problem of the Week) activity hosted on the MathForum
- Teacher Support
- Lesson plans created by participants of the 2010 Summer Institute

In resent years, China has occurred ice disasters and earthquakes for many times. It directly threatened the security and stability of the power grid. The strategy to ant-ice disasters and anti-earthquake from the design point is discussed in this paper. This paper proposed the idea of using new technologies to improve the disaster preventing ability in transmission and transportation engineering under the basis of differentiated designs. It focused on new technologies about power system to resist ice disaster and the seismic disaster both abroad and at home.


Optimal Detector for Discrete Transmit Signals in Gaussian Interference Channels
Free registration required
Executive Summary
This paper addresses the design of optimal and near-optimal detectors for a practical interference channel scenario where the transmitters employ discrete modulation schemes. The conventional detectors, which either ignore the interference or successively detect then cancel the interference, typically assume that the desired signal and/or the interference are Gaussian. This paper proposes detectors that explicitly take into account the modulation formats of both the desired signal and the interference. The optimal Maximum-Likelihood (ML) detector that minimizes the probability of detection error for a given set of modulation schemes is derived first.

Children can respond to disasters such as bushfires and floods in a number of ways, our son has recently started inserting fires into his creative play, smashing down lego creations as "fires" come to destroy everything.
It may be comforting to know that this is entirely normal behaviour, kids often process big emotions and issues through play. Perhaps you've noticed your children processing their feelings, how are your children/grandchildren processing the bush fires we've been experiencing for several months?
The disaster is hard to avoid, and you can't ignore them, if you've experienced an evacuation, had your home or community destroyed or, if you've been breathing in the smoke for several weeks your children/grandchildren would have experienced it too.
It may be the case that you're struggling to find ways to support your children or grandchildren at this time, being there is of utmost importance, showing them you're with them is of utmost importance, everything else flows from being present.
What follows are some articles and resources which I hope can help you think through how you work through these big feelings and issues together.
If you find any of these helpful, or if you've used other resources please let us know.
Kinderling – Helping Kids Cope With Bushfire Stress
I'll start with resources from Kinderling, (via Babyology) Initially they link to an episode of the Feed Pray Love podcast focussing on "helping children cope with fires" in which Margaret Nixon, the workforce officer for the National Workforce Centre for Child Mental Health discusses how parents (and grandparents) can help children during this emergency.
They then list a number of ways to support children through the stress brought out by the current bushfires:
- Being there matters most
- Children need reassurance and information
- Creating new routines
- Watch out for stress signals (in which they list a number of trauma responses)
- Look out for silver linings together
- Keeping kids safe from media coverage
Unicef – How to Talk to Your Children About Australia's Bushfire Emergency
UNICEF have a great article exploring how to talk with children overwhelmed by Australia's bushfire emergency.
"UNICEF's years of experience in providing counselling and emotional support to children impacted by disaster tells us that children and young people respond differently to disaster than adults."
Their list gives a number of tips for discussing the bushfires with your children, grandchildren, nieces and/or nephews:
- Focus on the child, not the distress
- Be honest, explain the truth
- Offer reassurance
- Help children get back to their normal routine
- Show them all the good people trying to help
- Show them they can help
- Take care of yourself
The Conversation – Bushfires Can Make Kids Scared & Anxious: Here Are 5 Steps To Help Them Cope
The Conversation has a great article by the people behind the Bounce Back program ( _URL_ ) on building resilience and lessons learned from working with students after the 2009 bushfires in Victoria.
Resilience is the capacity to bounce back after hardship. To help your child bounce back, you can communicate that:
- Life is mainly good but now and then everyone has a difficult or unhappy time
- Although things aren't good now and it might take a while to improve, it's important to stay hopeful and expect things to get better
- You will feel better and have more ideas about what to do if you talk to someone you trust about what's worrying or upsetting you
- Unhelpful thinking ("our family will never get a nice home again") isn't necessarily true and makes you feel worse
- Helpful thinking ("it might take a while to get our home back again but it will happen") makes you feel better because it is more accurate and helps you work out what to do.
Birdie's Tree – Growing Together Through Natural Disasters
Birdie's Tree is the work of the Queensland Centre for Perinatal and Infant Mental Health. The website includes:
- Therapeutic online games for children to play online (building a face, colouring in, singing songs…)
- Story flipbooks of Birdie and her friends experiencing natural disasters (fire, cyclone, floods, drought, sickness…). These stories can be read as families or in the classroom.
- Information and resources from the Child and Youth Mental Health team from the Queensland Hospital on recovering together through different natural disasters.
- A Curriculum for teachers and carers to help infants, young children and families recover emotionally from the 'big feelings' a natural disaster can cause.
Emerging Minds – Community Trauma Toolkit
Finally I've recently been introduced to the Community Trauma Toolkit from Emerging Minds, I've not had any time to really check it out, but it's come from a reliable source.
"This toolkit contains resources to help and support adults and children before, during, and after a disaster or traumatic event. It will help you understand some of the impacts of disaster and how you can help lessen these impacts.
Emergencies and disasters are extremely stressful and it is normal to feel overwhelmed. Children, even infants, can also be affected. They depend on the adults around them for safety and security, and will need reassurance, care, and opportunities to share their feelings. These resources provide a starting point for you to help children navigate the different stages of a disaster."


Definitions for genetic determinism
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word genetic determinism
Freebase
 1. Genetic determinism
 Genetic determinism is the belief that genes, along with environmental conditions, determine morphological and behavioral phenotypes. The term is sometimes mistakenly applied to the unscientific belief that genes determine, to the exclusion of environmental influence, how an organism turns out. As CH Waddington wrote in 1957, "It is of course a truism which has long been recognised that the development of any individual is affected both by the hereditary determinants which come into the fertilised egg from the two parents and also by the nature of the environment in which the development takes place." A related error is that geneticists and molecular biologists have only recently come to the realization that environment is essential in the development of the organism from egg to adult. In fact theorists and researchers long ago understood that genetic effects cannot be studied in isolation of the environment and that all measurements of such effects are only relative to stable external conditions. Also known since at least the 1950s is the means by which the environment influences embryonic and juvenile development, namely the epigenetic control of gene activation and deactivation.
U.S. National Library of Medicine
 1. Genetic Determinism
 The theory that human CHARACTER and BEHAVIOR are shaped by the GENES that comprise the individual's GENOTYPE rather than by CULTURE; ENVIRONMENT; and individual choice.

Cleansing and brightening
We use fresh kiwi fruit and juice to cleanse and tone the skin, leaving it fresh and glowing. The actinidin breaks down dead skin cells and dirt, while other vitamins and minerals in the fruit provide important nutrients for the skin and hair.
Kiwi is a small, fuzzy brown fruit with bright green flesh that grows on a climbing vine native to China. The fruits contain high levels of vitamin C and other vitamins, as well as the enzyme actinidin, which dissolves protein. We peel and blend the fresh fruit straight into our products.

Douglas Acquah-Hagan; Spencer Aggrey-Bosu, pp. 74. MAM/Sektionen för Management, 2011.
This case study uses qualitative and quantitative analyses to examine the impact of the annual audits undertaken by the Audit Commission (hereafter the AC) at London Borough of Lambeth (LBL) on its management control system (MCS). The analysis reviews the audits undertaken between the years 2000 and 2010 and analyses the management reaction to these results to identify the impact on MCS.
The objective of the research was achieved by developing research questions which served as a research framework. The study focused primarily on three research questions: (1) have the audit scores of the AC influenced MCSs at LBL?; (2) how has the audit scores of the annual audits completed by the AC influenced the MCS of LBL?; and (3) why has the audit scores of the annual audits completed by the AC influenced MCS at LBL?. The theoretical framework used in this study focused on three bodies of literature: the work of the Audit Commission, auditing and audits scores, and MCSs. The thesis used content analysis to analyse LBL's submissions; audit results and recommendations; and improvement plans. Data for the analysis were collected via documentation, archival records, interviews, and direct and participant observation.
As a local government authority, LBL receives most of its annual finance from central government to deliver services to local residents and businesses. As a result the central government, through the AC, audits them every year to ensure that they are effective and efficient with their resources. Between the years 2000 and 2004, LBL audit scores were one star out of possible four stars and this represented considerable risk to its continuous survival. It is worth noting that a council with more than three consecutive score of one star is classified as a failing organisation and that council is taken into 'special measures' – a situation where the central government takes administrative control of the council. The trend of audit scores at LBL had indicated the council needed to improve in the areas of:
- Financial planning and monitoring;
- Service performance improvement in areas such as cultural services;
- Performance management processes; and
- Use of resources and internal capabilities.
After the audit recommendation of 2004, the council developed an improvement plan. This led to the implementation of the new financial control systems, performance management procedure and personnel control system. LBL's performance measurement imitates the balanced scorecard approach developed by Kaplan and Norton (1992). The reactions at LBL are congruent with the findings of Asel (2009) which demonstrated that organisations with high perceived uncertainty are more likely to change their MCS.
The research objectives limited the study scope which has opened opportunities for future research in local authorities such as: MCS as a package; the influence of other stakeholder; trade union contribution to MCS; and organisational leadership at local authorities. It is also worth noting that the Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) is in a consultation process with an intention to outsource the work of the AC with effect from 2012/13 audits (_URL_).


Q
Problem solve Get help with specific problems with your technologies, process and projects.
How can I get a pop-up window to collect preliminary user information before they can access a form?
There is a form that, when launched, I would like an initial dialog box to pop up to collect some preliminary information prior to the user gaining access to the entire form. Additionally, I would like the same dialog to be presented when the user closes/saves the document to verify these fields maintain the correct information. Can you help direct me in the best way to do this? I'm sure script is the best way to go, but I'm new to scripting so this is a bit of a challenge for me. And help would be appreciated.
The principle of popups, assuming we are speaking here about a Notes interface, is that information entered in fields in these popups can automatically be inherited into the main form from which the popup was called. This is done by using the @DialogBox function, which is exhaustively described in the Designer Help file. Sometimes it is easier to do these things with LotusScript.
I have attached some example code below, to give you a head start. It is important to remember that when you "dialog" a form using LotusScript, you will need to create a document object as well, to be able to read the values the user enters. If you do not do so and do not use this object in the calling method (see below), you would not be able to read any values entered by the user using LotusScript. The method dialog box of the notesUiworkspace, takes a value for a LotusScript NotesDocument object, which will then take the values entered. This method returns a true or false, related to the equivalent [OK] and [Cancel] button on the dialog box that appears to the end user. This allows you to trap if the user actually pressed the [OK] button and, if so, use the data from the dialog box to fill in or process your current document.
Dim s as New notesSession
Dim w as new notesUiWorkspace
Dim db as notesDatabase
Dim tmpDoc as notesDocument
Set db=s.currentDatabase
Set w=New notesUiworkspace
Set tmpDoc=db.createDocument
'open dialog box to enter details for reversing activities
dlgFlag = w.DialogBox( "dlgReverse", True,True,False,False,False,False, "Reversing Activities",tmpDoc,True,False)
If dlgFlag Then
'do your thing on the calling document
End if

A treasure trove is any valuable old collection that is concealed in cellar or attics, that is discovered by accident and its true owner is unknown. Here is a list of ten incredible treasure troves.
The National museum of Poland offers its visitors a chance to examine the treasure of Sroda Slaska. The highlighting feature of the treasure is a gold crown that was used by Blanche de Valois of 14th century. The treasure also includes 2 gold pendants of 12th century, a medieval gold clasp embedded with precious stones, 39 gold coins, 3 rings and 2924 silver coins.
Panagyuriste treasure was discovered by three brothers in 1949 while they were processing clay at Merul. The vessels belonged to the Odrysian ruler of 3rd and 4th century BC. It includes a phial, seven rhytons and an amphora all of which weighs to 6,614 kg of pure gold. The treasure has the scenes of Greek mythology engraved on them.
Presalv treasure was discovered after centuries at the vineyard in Castana. This incredible excavation revealed 170 objects that were made from metals like gold, silver and bronze. It also includes coins that belonged to 3rd and 7th centuries.
The most remarkable piece revealed in Tuntankhamun's tomb is the king's inner coffin that exhibits an incomparable quality workmanship. The coffin measuring 74 inches long and 20 inches wide is crafted from solid gold.
Pereshchepina treasure was discovered 90 years ago in a village of Ukraine. The shepherd boys accidentally took out the treasure while they were playing by a river. The treasure included eating vessels, jewelry and exclusively ornamented weapons that weighed 20 kg of gold and 50 kg of silver.
A mission of archeologists accompanied by Victor Sarianidhi of Afghanistan, discovered the treasure in a burial ground in 1979. This valuable collection includedexclusive jewelry crafted from metals like gold, lapis-lazuli and turquoise.
The invaluable treasure of Nagyszentmiklos represents a collection of twenty three gold vessels that belonged to the 10th century. The vessels were crafted from 22 carat gold. This treasure is assumbed to be used in the dining halls of the royal Bulgarian families.
The treasure was discovered in Pietrosele, Romania in 1837. It belonged to a Gothic king of 4th century. This valuable collection portrayed twenty two pieces of gold with overall weight of 27 kg. Some of the pieces carried the inscription the sacred inheritance of Goths.
A hoard of gold was revealed near Gourdon in 1845. The hoard dates back to the 6th century and included a Challice decorated with garnets and turquoises in the compartments. The Challice also carried a hundred gold coins that belonged to Byzantine emperors.
This treasure trove was recently discovered on a sunken ship of Indonesia. It included 14,000 pearls, 400 dark red sapphires, 4000 rubies and more than 2000 garnets. It is believed that the treasure belonged to the Egyptian period.

On November 7, AU's computer programming team competed in the International Collegiate Programming Contest sponsored by IBM and ACM.
Nine AU students formed three teams of three people each. The contest was divided by region and site, with AU competing in the Mid-Atlantic Region division at the George Washington University site. One team ranked third place out of 22 teams at the GW site and 19th place out of the 161 teams in the entire Mid-Atlantic Region. Its members were undergraduates Priyadarshini Komala, BS computer science '12, and David Plassmann, BS computer science '10, and graduate student Michael Levin, MS computer science '10. Undergraduates Patrick Trebisacci, BS physics '12, Batbaatar Burentogtokh, BS computer science '12, and Reid Cumbest, BS computer science '03, composed the second team, and undergraduates Tai Vu, BS computer science '12 Michael Repas, BA philosophy '10 and Josh Reese, BS audio technology and computer science '10, composed the third.
In the contest, individual teams were given eight problems to solve in five hours, using the computer programming languages C++ or Java. Rankings were decided by how many problems the team completed and how quickly they were solved.
The team prepared for the contest since September, with weekly practices on Monday nights. Angela Wu, team advisor and computer science professor, says that she is most proud that the students worked well together while practicing and in competition.
"I think [the practices and competition] build community spirit," she says. "Our students are good, motivated students who look at this as fun."
Students from nearly 2,000 universities from over 80 countries in 6 continents participated in the competition.


Champagne: In Victory One Deserves It; In Defeat One Needs It – Napolean
December 24, 2010 No comments
Watch our videoÂ on facebookÂ of Rhonda RhyneÂ teaching the EasthamsÂ about Sabering Champagne!
Sabering –
An old tradition which represents, today, a festive gesture of friendship, love and respect for champagne (and friends)!
I.Â What is Sabering?
Sabering is the French tradition of removing the cork from a bottle of champagne. This ritual dates back to Napoleon, when his soldiers used the reverse edge of their saber to break the neck of the bottle.Â Hence, the French expression "saber the bottle" came about illustrating the French belief that it is better to destroy the bottle than to do without champagne!
II.Â How to Saber
 1. Properly chilled champagne bottle (between 35 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit);
 2. Remove all the foil that dresses the top of the bottle.Â Now, carefully, and with the cork pointed away from any person, animal, precious object, gently remove the muzzle cage. If properly chilled and not shaken, the cork should remain in the bottle.
 3. Hold the bottle with the thumb of the hand you don't write with firmly set in the "butt" of the bottle.Â The rest of your fingers will cradle the base of the bottle.
 4. Find the Seam: Using the hand you write with, slide the nail of your thumb around the top of the bottle's neck, just below the area where the muzzle was attached (this part is also called the annulus).Â You are looking for the bottle's seam.Â There are always two to a bottle. Where that seam meets the annulus is the weakest spot of the bottle.Â It is so weak, in fact, that with experience, a skilled saberer can perform the task with a butter-knife or even the foot of a champagne glass. Now turn the bottle so that this weak spot is facing you on top.Â This is the spot you will make contact with the blade;
 5. Firmly hold the saber and place its blade on the top of the bottle's shoulder on the seam. For best results, the bottle should be about two thirds of the blade away from the saber handle. Angle saber around 30-45 degrees to bottle and have elbow about 6 inches from your body;
 6. Angle of the bottle should be such that the fluid is just short of touching the base of the cork in the bottle.Â Â A lesser angle will cause spillage, and a greater angle will make the sliding of the blade less natural.
 7. Critical for successful sabering is momentum: It is not strength or force that is required, but rather momentum and follow-through that pops the cork and bottle head off simultaneously.Â As in golf or tennis, you need to maintain the motion beyond the point of impact.Â If you stop the motion at the annulus you risk chipping the rim.Â Do not hesitate, and do not use your wrist in the action â€" all the motion is from the elbow. Simply slide the blade alongside the bottle's neck with the intention to impact beyond the cork.
III.Â Caution and Questions
Beware: Sabered bottles easily cut fingers, skin
The top of a saberedÂ bottle, and the glass attached to the sabered cork may be sharp and must be handled with extreme care so as to not cut yourself or others.
Will glass end up in the fluid?
No, the pressure in the bottle, equivalent to that of a truck's tire, but far less than a soda bottleâ€™s, will prevent any potential glass chards from slipping into the bottle.
Will this spoil the quality of the beverage?
Not really, though some would argue that it causes undue stress to the nectar.Â You might want to avoid sabering an extraordinary champagne.
As with anything, common sense and responsibility will allow you to perform this act with confidence and safety for the pleasure of all.Â If you do not have a saber, use a large, heavy kitchen knife and use the back, or blunt, side of the blade to saber the bottle.

This review discusses the benefits seen of heat treatment during storage in order to reduce embryonic mortality caused by prolonged storage in avian species.
Heat treatment during storage
The longer eggs are stored, the higher the losses in hatchability. Stored eggs have a higher rate of embryonic mortality between days 2 and 3 of incubation, and need more time to complete incubation. This causes some live chicks to be rejected at take-off because they hatch too late. Several studies have investigated the possibility to limit the hatchability loss after long storage by applying short periods of heat treatment during storage, with differing results. Heat treatment for stored eggs has been around since the 1950's, most commonly known as SPIDES but also known as PRESI in Canada and IDEAS in Turkey. In recent years, more and more successful attempts have been reported applying heat treatment during storage, even for large-scale trials. Nicholson (2012) and Aviagen (2014) have shown a consistent improvement of the hatchability of long stored eggs (Ross 308 & Ross 708 broiler eggs, as well as various GP & GGP lines) by applying one or more heat treatments in 34 small to large-scale trials.
Effect of storage according to developmental stage
Development of the avian embryo begins immediately after fertilization in the infundibulum and continues as albumen and shell are deposited over the next 24-26 hours. The embryonic developmental stage at the moment of oviposition (egg laying) is variable for different genetic lines as well as parental ages. This may be genetically determined or linked to variations in oviductal transit time and/or body temperature. The effect of long storage times on embryonic development highly depends on the developmental stage of the embryos at oviposition. Although there are variations of staging at point of lay, according to breed type, etc. the stage should always be well away from the "point of no return". However collection timing, farm storage, transport, etc. can all affect the embryo stage if the eggs are poorly managed and it must be remembered that to fill a commercial incubator will usually take more than one days egg collection or eggs from more than one farm. It has been reported that embryos at the pre-gastrula stage at oviposition are less able to withstand prolonged storage compared to embryos at the gastrula stage. For these embryos, incubation during storage may improve hatchability, since it can advance them to the developmental stage in which hypoblast formation is complete. In contrast, if development is already well advanced and embryos have started to form the primitive streak, incubation during storage may be detrimental since it brings the embryo in a more advanced stage of primitive streak formation (to around stage 3/4 H&H, 1951, period of active cellular migration and differentiation). Storage during such a period could impede critical embryonic processes. So there is some sort of "point of no return"- once this is reached, the embryonic development cannot be stopped anymore via returning the eggs to cold storage.
How does heat treatment during storage help?
In the egg holding room, eggs are kept at or under a so-called threshold temperature or physiological zero for development. However, some partial, but not a global or proportionate development can take place at these subthreshold temperatures. Different cells or tissues in these early embryos may have different threshold temperatures for development, resulting in uneven or disproportionate development. When this disproportionate development progresses too far it may interfere with embryonic viability and, hence also hatchability. Total heat treatment aims to be around 12 hours, but this will depend on egg size, cold store temperatures and egg temperature at removal. Using current technology adapted to work in a specialised way, has allowed the process to be refined to give accurate and consistent results irrespective of egg age, breed, size, egg weight or storage time of the loaded eggs. This consistency would the answer the question as to why previous heat treatments have been shown to give a benefit but with varying levels of success.
Storing eggs is an inevitable practice when incubating eggs on commercial scale. It is impossible to synchronize breeder egg production with final product production, which often generates high levels of losses. Heat treatment during egg storage allows a significant reduction in these logistical discrepancies. There is undoubtedly a huge potential in restoring the hatchability of stored eggs, and even improving post-hatch performance. The initial series of commercial trials demonstrated that the operational parameters required in order to achieve a degree of benefits was relatively broad; however achieving the optimal gains considerably narrowed the parameter limitations. Add to this the logistical need to minimize space usage within the hatchery, it was clear there is a need for dedicated, accurate equipment that has a practical capacity. It is crucial to accurately and consistently control the key incubation parameters, as inadequate application of the technique will result in suboptimal results or might even lead to major losses. The precise measurement and control of the egg shell temperature in the incubator, as well as a controlled and uniform warm-up and cool-down phases of the eggs, are key to achieve consistent, optimal gains. The trials currently being undertaken under precise controlled conditions indicate gains can be achieved on eggs with relatively short storage. Taking an immature embryo to a more robust developmental stage either prior to or during initial storage has a major effect on embryonic viability as this gain is seen in the improved hatch of set figures.

Fight Song
In U.S. and Canadian sports, a fight song is a song associated with a team. In both professional and amateur sports, fight songs are a popular way for fans to cheer for their team, and are also laden with history; in singing a fight song, fans feel part of a large, time-honored tradition.[1] Although the term "fight song" is primarily used in the United States, the use of fight songs is commonplace around the world, but they may also be referred to as team anthems, team songs or games songs in other countries, even such as Australia, Mexico and New Zealand. Fight songs differ from stadium anthems, used for similar purposes, in that they are usually written specifically for the purposes of the team, whereas stadium anthems are not.
Hundreds of colleges have fight songs, some of which are over a century old. The oldest collegiate fight song in the United States is Boston College's "For Boston", composed by T.J. Hurley in 1885.[2]
One of the oldest games songs in Australia is Melbourne Grammar's 'Play Together, Dark Blue Twenty', which is sung to the tune of 'The March of the Men of Harlech'.[3][4] It was composed by Ambrose John Wilson who was principal of the school from _PHONE_.[5] This is not to be confused with the school hymn 'Ora et Labora' which is now sung to the tune of 'Jerusalem'.[6]

 3. ^ The Melbourne Grammar games song comprises verses from the school's three main sports at the time, Australian rules football, cricket and rowing. For example the Australian rules verse is:
 'Play together, Dark Blue Twenty,
 Long and little marks in plenty;
 Get your kick, let none prevent ye,
 Make the leather roll.
 Mark your men, keen effort straining,
 On the ball and show your training;
 Still though short the time remaining,
 Get another goal.'
 The chorus between each verse is:
 'None our ranks shall sunder.
 Who will shirk or blunder?
 If all are true
 To our Dark Blue,
 Our foemen must go under.
 Honour ye the old School's story,
 Those who played and won before ye,
 Bear the Dark Blue flag to glory,
 Grammar to the fore.'
 The cricket verse:
 Bat with patience unremitting,
 Yorker, shooter, break outwitting,
 All the loose ones freely hitting,
 That's the game to play.
 Skill the bat and ball in wielding,
 Smartness, judgement in the fielding,
 Iron nerve and pluck unyielding,
 Scarce can lose the day.
 The rowing verse:
 Row the race, boys swing together,
 Sinews tough as cords of leather,
 Strong, yet light upon the feather,
 Lift her, make her go!
 Get the catch at the beginning,
 Churn the tide in eddies spinning,
 Now a spurt, you gain! you're winning!
 Melbourne Grammar, row!
 A fourth verse with its own chorus was added in the early 20th century with imperial connotations:
 'Some, in strife of sterner omen,
 Faced the Empire's stubborn foemen;
 Fought, as erst their sires - her yeomen;
 Won the deathless name.
 Praise ye these who stood for Britain,
 These by foreign marksmen smitten;
 Praise them, for their names are written
 High in storied fame.
 None their ranks could sunder;
 Who could shirk or blunder?
 So stood they true
 To the old Dark Blue,
 And all their foes went under.
 Honour ye the old School's story,
 Heroes who - her sons before ye -
 Died or lived, but fought for glory,
 Honoured evermore.'

Diver Dragged Underwater by Whale in New Zealand – What Species?
While the traumatized free diver claims that an orca swam over, grabbed a catch bag that was tied to his wrist, and dragged him underwater until he almost ran out of breath, it is highly unlikely that this was actually an orca. For starters, orcas are unknown to attack humans in the wild, nor would they likely be interested in stealing a catch bag since the contents (which included crayfish) are not likely to be part of their diet.
It sounds much more like the work of a pilot whale, a species who have been known to drag humans underwater, always returning them to the surface just in time before drowning can occur. This appears to be how the whales send people a message when they feel harassed, and people don't understand the warnings given by the whales.
In May 1992 a swimmer entered waters south off Hawaii and swam with a group of short-finned pilot whales. During the encounter one whale dramatically changed its behavior and finally attacked the swimmer by opening its mouth and grabbing the swimmer's inner left thigh. Seconds later the human swimmer was drowned to 40 feet below the surface. Finally, the swimmer was brought back to the water surface. The scenario was filmed underwater and can be viewed on YouTube (…here…).The woman survived this life-threatening attack. (From PilotWhales.org.)
Short finned pilot whale (Globicephala macrorhynchus)
Short finned pilot whale (Globicephala macrorhynchus)
Pilot whales can be confused with orcas, they are both commonly called 'blackfish', and both occupy New Zealand waters.
In any case, this is such an odd occurrence that it may turn out to be an incomplete story. Like orcas, pilot whales are not known to randomly approach human divers and drag them underwater when the people are minding their own business.
Quoted below is part of the article in which the diver expressed that he assumed it was and orca, although he never saw it because of bubbles that obscured his vision:
Diver survives death spiral in whale attack
By Amy Maas 5:30 AM Sunday Feb 23, 2014
Levi Gavin says the orca dragged him beneath the water for more than 40 seconds before he broke free. Photo / Doug Sherring
A free diver who was dragged to the depths of the ocean by a killer whale has told how he got down to his "last breath" during the terrifying ordeal.
Levi Gavin, 23, was collecting kina and crayfish at Horahora Estuary, 30km east of Whangarei on February 10, when an orca grabbed a catch bag attached to his right arm.
It dragged him beneath the water for more than 40 seconds before a rope connecting him to the bag came undone and he was able to free himself from the death spiral. Remarkably, he escaped injury.
In an exclusive interview, the keen fisherman told how he had tried to relax as he was being dragged deeper and deeper by the giant sea creature.
"As soon as it got me under water, my goggles came off and kept flapping on my face and it just kept going," he told the Herald on Sunday.
"I got to my last breath. I couldn't really think at the time."
Gavin popped off his weight belt and floated to the surface before realising his arm was "dead" and he was unable to swim.
"My cousin was about 30m from me and I could hear his flippers from a mile away trying to get out to me because he saw me pop up.

This tutorial introduces the basics of the QCAD property editor.
Property Editor Basics
The property editor is shown at the right side of the QCAD application window after the first launch of QCAD. If you cannot see a property editor, you can show it using the menu View > Property Editor. Just like most other widgets in QCAD, you can dock it in any desired location, usually somewhere at the right as shown here:
The property editor displays the various properties of the entity or entities that are currently selected and allows you to change them. In the example above, a dimension entity is selected and the property editor shows all properties of this entity.
In this case, there is for example property called Label which shows the value Auto. This means that the label of the dimension is not explicitly set and is therefore calculated automatically. We can use to property to enter a fixed label to be used instead.
Dimension Labels and Symbols
Dimension labels often contain special characters that are hard to access on a keyboard (⌀, °, ±, ...).
A right-click into the dimension label text field in the property editor shows a context menu which can be used to quickly insert commonly used symbols and formatting:
Of course, you can also type these codes or symbols directly into the text field. The context menu is merely provided for convenience. The most important code is <> (less than, greater than) to use the automatically measured value in combination with a symbol or text. For example R<> creates a dimension label R7.5 if the dimensioned radius is 7.5 drawing units.
Changing Multiple Entities at Once
You can also change multiple selected entities at once using the property editor. To add an R in front of all radial dimension labels, simply select all radial dimensions and type R<> into the value of the label property.
Filtering by Entity Type
Sometimes, selecting all radial dimensions might be a challenge, especially in large and complex drawings.
To assist with that, the property editor offers a filter at the top where you can choose to only display the properties of a certain entity type. To add an R prefix to all radial dimension entities using this feature, we can simply select the entire drawing (Select > Select All) and then filter the property editor by radial dimensions by choosing Radial Dimension from the Selection box at the top of the property editor:
This filter also comes in handy when reorganizing drawings. To put for example all texts on a separate layer called text, you could select the whole drawing, choose the filter Text in the property editor and then change the layer property. You can even move all selected texts to a new layer by clicking the button at the right of the layer property and choosing Moving Selection to New Layer.

It aims at management of pest through control in increase of pest population in coconut plantations as pest/insects get trapped and die hence cannot reproduce thus lowering pest incidence even for years to come.
It uses pheromone lure as bait which is directed towards a particular insect only, which produces smell of female insect to which the male gets attracted and are trapped.
How it is women friendly?
It is chemical free, as women does all house chores thus are greatly exposed to get poisoned and poison their family due to physical contact with pesticides, it nullifies threat to health.
Four to six Co-Co traps with lures which last 25-30 can be placed in one acre area, which has been found to be significantly helpful in reducing the pest population

The Cello Biennale and Splendor Amsterdam gave a young cellist carte blanche for one evening in Splendor: Kalle de Bie won the Start in Splendor Prize during the National Cello Competition 2016. Ainsi la Nuit was the result. Featuring Kalle de Bie (cello), Cordelia Paw and Tim Brackman (violin), Martin Moriarty (viola), Nadav Katan and Seán Morgan-Rooney (piano), and visuals by Tessel de Vries.
During this evening, the audience was taken on a musical and visual journey through the suggestive, surrealist world of one of the most innovative composers of France: Henri Dutilleux. In his music, which is poetic and filled with atmosphere, Dutilleux was inspired by Marcel Proust and Charles Baudelaire, through whom he became interested in memories, the subconscious, and dreams.
The music of Dutilleux has never been seen or heard in this way. To have a more intense experience of the mysterious atmosphere, there was a projection on the ceiling of surreal, dark films by different artists during the concert. These illusionary images, edited by Tessel de Vries, will carry the audience through the story of the music, from nostalgia to nightmares.
