text: The European Union and the United States delivered on a significant element of the Joint Statement agreed by Presidents Juncker and Trump in July 2018. The positive transatlantic trade agenda established in the Joint Statement includes a commitment from both sides to reduce barriers and increase trade in a range of sectors, including pharmaceuticals. This Mutual Recognition Agreement is underpinned by robust evidence that the EU and the U.S. have comparable procedures to carry out good manufacturing practice inspections for human medicines. Commissioner Vytenis Andriukaitis, in charge of Health and Food Safety said: "The completion of the Mutual Recognition Agreement is not only a step forward in the trade relations between the EU and the U.S., but it will also ensure high quality medicines for the benefit of patients. It means that, on both sides of the Atlantic, the authorities in charge of medicines can now rely on inspections results to replace their own inspections. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has completed the capability assessments of the 28 EU competent authorities, the result of five years of close transatlantic cooperation." Together, Europe and the United States account for more than 80% of global sales of new medicines. As a result of the full implementation of this agreement, both the industry and public authorities on both sides will be able to free resources that could be used to inspect facilities in other large producing countries. This can make it faster and less costly for both sides to bring medicines to the market and benefit patients.

Maroon & Maroons
Maroon and Maroons became the University of Chicago's official color and nickname, respectively, at a meeting of students and faculty on May 5, 1894.
Before the University held its first classes on October 1, 1892, the Board of Trustees had selected goldenrod (yellow) as the school's official color. By 1894, however, Chicago's legendary football coach Amos Alonzo Stagg believed that a change was necessary.
"The yellow ran, soiled easily, and had a regrettable symbolism which our opponents might not be above commenting upon," said Stagg in his autobiography, Touchdown!
Because maroon was not already in use by any major school in the Midwest, Stagg and his associate J.E. Raycroft brought a selection of maroon shades to the 1894 meeting of students and faculty. From those ribbons, a choice was made, and the baseball team appeared in that color during its final games of the 1894 season.
On July 21, 1894, the first mention of a U. of C. athletic team as Maroons appeared in the Chicago Tribune in an article about the baseball team.
While Maroons is the official nickname of the University of Chicago's sports teams, the Phoenix – which is featured as part of the University's shield – serves as the school's mascot. The U. of C. Board of Trustees adopted the shield in 1910.

Export configurations for supported Amazon Web Services Cloud destinations - Amazon IoT Greengrass
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).
Export configurations for supported Amazon Web Services Cloud destinations
User-defined Greengrass components use StreamManagerClient in the Stream Manager SDK to interact with stream manager. When a component creates a stream or updates a stream, it passes a MessageStreamDefinition object that represents stream properties, including the export definition. The ExportDefinition object contains the export configurations defined for the stream. Stream manager uses these export configurations to determine where and how to export the stream.
 Object model diagram of the ExportDefinition property type.
You can define zero or more export configurations on a stream, including multiple export configurations for a single destination type. For example, you can export a stream to two Amazon IoT Analytics channels and one Kinesis data stream.
For failed export attempts, stream manager continually retries exporting data to the Amazon Web Services Cloud at intervals of up to five minutes. The number of retry attempts doesn't have a maximum limit.
Note
StreamManagerClient also provides a target destination you can use to export streams to an HTTP server. This target is intended for testing purposes only. It is not stable or supported for use in production environments.
You are responsible for maintaining these Amazon Web Services Cloud resources.
Amazon IoT Analytics channels
Stream manager supports automatic exports to Amazon IoT Analytics. Amazon IoT Analytics lets you perform advanced analysis on your data to help make business decisions and improve machine learning models. For more information, see What is Amazon IoT Analytics? in the Amazon IoT Analytics User Guide.
In the Stream Manager SDK, your Greengrass components use the IoTAnalyticsConfig to define the export configuration for this destination type. For more information, see the SDK reference for your target language:
Requirements
This export destination has the following requirements:
 - Target channels in Amazon IoT Analytics must be in the same Amazon Web Services account and Amazon Web Services Region as the Greengrass core device.
 - The Authorize core devices to interact with Amazon services must allow the iotanalytics:BatchPutMessage permission to target channels. For example:
 { "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "iotanalytics:BatchPutMessage" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws-cn:iotanalytics:region:account-id:channel/channel_1_name", "arn:aws-cn:iotanalytics:region:account-id:channel/channel_2_name" ] } ] }
 You can grant granular or conditional access to resources, for example, by using a wildcard * naming scheme. For more information, see Adding and removing IAM policies in the IAM User Guide.
Exporting to Amazon IoT Analytics
To create a stream that exports to Amazon IoT Analytics, your Greengrass components create a stream with an export definition that includes one or more IoTAnalyticsConfig objects. This object defines export settings, such as the target channel, batch size, batch interval, and priority.
When your Greengrass components receive data from devices, they append messages that contain a blob of data to the target stream.
Then, stream manager exports the data based on the batch settings and priority defined in the stream's export configurations.
Amazon Kinesis data streams
Stream manager supports automatic exports to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams. Kinesis Data Streams is commonly used to aggregate high-volume data and load it into a data warehouse or MapReduce cluster. For more information, see What is Amazon Kinesis Data Streams? in the Amazon Kinesis Developer Guide.
In the Stream Manager SDK, your Greengrass components use the KinesisConfig to define the export configuration for this destination type. For more information, see the SDK reference for your target language:
Requirements
This export destination has the following requirements:
 - Target streams in Kinesis Data Streams must be in the same Amazon Web Services account and Amazon Web Services Region as the Greengrass core device.
 - The Authorize core devices to interact with Amazon services must allow the kinesis:PutRecords permission to target data streams. For example:
 { "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "kinesis:PutRecords" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws-cn:kinesis:region:account-id:stream/stream_1_name", "arn:aws-cn:kinesis:region:account-id:stream/stream_2_name" ] } ] }
 You can grant granular or conditional access to resources, for example, by using a wildcard * naming scheme. For more information, see Adding and removing IAM policies in the IAM User Guide.
Exporting to Kinesis Data Streams
To create a stream that exports to Kinesis Data Streams, your Greengrass components create a stream with an export definition that includes one or more KinesisConfig objects. This object defines export settings, such as the target data stream, batch size, batch interval, and priority.
When your Greengrass components receive data from devices, they append messages that contain a blob of data to the target stream. Then, stream manager exports the data based on the batch settings and priority defined in the stream's export configurations.
Stream manager generates a unique, random UUID as a partition key for each record uploaded to Amazon Kinesis.
Amazon IoT SiteWise asset properties
Stream manager supports automatic exports to Amazon IoT SiteWise. Amazon IoT SiteWise lets you collect, organize, and analyze data from industrial equipment at scale. For more information, see What is Amazon IoT SiteWise? in the Amazon IoT SiteWise User Guide.
In the Stream Manager SDK, your Greengrass components use the IoTSiteWiseConfig to define the export configuration for this destination type. For more information, see the SDK reference for your target language:
Note
Amazon also provides Amazon IoT SiteWise components, which offer a pre-built solution that you can use to stream data from OPC-UA sources. For more information, see IoT SiteWise OPC-UA collector.
Requirements
This export destination has the following requirements:
 - Target asset properties in Amazon IoT SiteWise must be in the same Amazon Web Services account and Amazon Web Services Region as the Greengrass core device.
 Note
 For the list of Amazon Web Services Regions that Amazon IoT SiteWise supports, see Amazon IoT SiteWise endpoints and quotas in the Amazon General Reference.
 - The Authorize core devices to interact with Amazon services must allow the iotsitewise:BatchPutAssetPropertyValue permission to target asset properties. The following example policy uses the iotsitewise:assetHierarchyPath condition key to grant access to a target root asset and its children. You can remove the Condition from the policy to allow access to all of your Amazon IoT SiteWise assets or specify ARNs of individual assets.
 { "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": "iotsitewise:BatchPutAssetPropertyValue", "Resource": "*", "Condition": { "StringLike": { "iotsitewise:assetHierarchyPath": [ "/root node asset ID", "/root node asset ID/*" ] } } } ] }
 You can grant granular or conditional access to resources, for example, by using a wildcard * naming scheme. For more information, see Adding and removing IAM policies in the IAM User Guide.
 For important security information, see BatchPutAssetPropertyValue authorization in the Amazon IoT SiteWise User Guide.
Exporting to Amazon IoT SiteWise
To create a stream that exports to Amazon IoT SiteWise, your Greengrass components create a stream with an export definition that includes one or more IoTSiteWiseConfig objects. This object defines export settings, such as the batch size, batch interval, and priority.
When your Greengrass components receive asset property data from devices, they append messages that contain the data to the target stream. Messages are JSON-serialized PutAssetPropertyValueEntry objects that contain property values for one or more asset properties. For more information, see Append message for Amazon IoT SiteWise export destinations.
Note
When you send data to Amazon IoT SiteWise, your data must meet the requirements of the BatchPutAssetPropertyValue action. For more information, see BatchPutAssetPropertyValue in the Amazon IoT SiteWise API Reference.
Then, stream manager exports the data based on the batch settings and priority defined in the stream's export configurations.
You can adjust your stream manager settings and Greengrass component logic to design your export strategy. For example:
 - For near real time exports, set low batch size and interval settings and append the data to the stream when it's received.
 - To optimize batching, mitigate bandwidth constraints, or minimize cost, your Greengrass components can pool the timestamp-quality-value (TQV) data points received for a single asset property before appending the data to the stream. One strategy is to batch entries

What is a triple column cash book and explain its format?
Triple column cash books have three columns on both the debit and credit side of the cash book. These cash books record cash transactions, bank transactions and discounts. Both cash and bank transactions of column cash books are balanced and totaled periodically; discount column of triple column cash books is only totaled, but not balanced.
Separate accounts are maintained in the general ledger for discount allowed and received. Discount column on the debit side represents a discount given to customers during a period.
Discount allowed is an expense and this column on the credit side represents discount from suppliers during a period. Discount received is income.
The format of triple column cash book is as follows −
Date − Records transaction date.
Description − Records name of account debited/credited.
Voucher number (VN) − A document that supports a transaction.
Posting reference (PR) − Unique number assigned in ledger.
Discount − Discount allowed is recorded on the debit side; discount allowed is recorded on the credit side.

Written by Huang Lixia / Translated by Chen Zhiying
2022 marks the 10th Anniversary of the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Thailand. Taking opportunities brought by RCEP's entry into force, China and Thailand continue to deepen cooperation in multi fields, together writing a new chapter of "China and Thailand are one family".
The 19th China-ASEAN Expo (CAEXPO) was held from September 16-19 in Nanning, Guangxi. During the CAEXPO, H.E. Atthayut Srisamut, Ambassador of Thailand to China, answered reporters' questions about the CAEXPO, RCEP's implementation, and future development of China-Thailand relations.
Jointly building the Belt and Road, China and Thailand usher in a new chapter of cooperation
"Friendly relations between China and Thailand will bring more cooperation," said H.E. Atthayut Srisamut. According to him, China and Thailand enjoy a long history of cordial relations, with trade exchanges carried out since ancient times. The two sides understand and trust each other well.
Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Thailand, both sides have witnessed close relations and frequent exchanges, with in-depth cooperation conducted in various fields. In recent years, China continues to promote practical cooperation with Thailand, specifically, aligning jointly building the Belt and Road with "Thailand 4.0" and East Economic Corridor. In 2021, bilateral trade volume reached US$ 131.2 billion, a year-on-year increase of 33%. China became Thailand's largest trading partner for many consecutive years.
China-Thailand Railway, another major project under the Belt and Road to promote connectivity, adds lusters to the long-standing China-Thailand relations. At present, the Railway has under full construction. H.E. Atthayut Srisamut hopes the Railway could be completed as early as possible so that to facilitate the import and export of more goods and to bring more understanding and the sharing of information knowledge.
Sharing new opportunities, injecting new impetus for development
In 2021, Chinese President Xi Jinping and heads of ASEAN countries officially announced the establishment of the China-ASEAN comprehensive strategic partnership, setting a milestone for bilateral relations, sketching the blueprint for China-ASEAN cooperation in the next three decades, and making clear the development direction for the two sides. H.E. Atthayut Srisamut believed it is of great importance to bilateral relations since it helped to safeguard regional peace and stability and promote common development and prosperity.
H.E. Atthayut Srisamut said China has always supported ASEAN to play its role within the region and in the Asia-Pacific region. China is the first country to join the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation in Southeast Asia and also the first to establish free trade areas with ASEAN countries. "Thank China for always supporting ASEAN and Thailand in promoting development and regional cooperation," said H.E. Atthayut Srisamut.
RCEP's official entry into force played a positive role in promoting China-ASEAN economic and trade cooperation, regional development and prosperity, and regional economic integration. "The trade volume between China and ASEAN is enormous, and so does the role of the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area. RCEP is conducive to strengthening trade exchanges among the 15 member states. Since 2020, ASEAN has surpassed the EU, the United States, and Japan to become China's largest trading partner. RCEP will provide more opportunities for trade between China and ASEAN," said H.E. Atthayut Srisamut.
Joining hands with the CAEXPO for a new future
When it came to the CAEXPO, H.E. Atthayut Srisamut said: "The CAEXPO has facilitated trade between China and ASEAN." He also said that the CAEXPO is important to promote the trade between Thailand and China and that Thailand takes part in the CAEXPO actively every year. "Looking back, one can find that the Prime Minister and Deputy Minister of Thailand both took part in the CAEXPO.
At the opening ceremony of the CAEXPO and the China-ASEAN Business and Investment Summit (CABIS) this year, Don Pramudwinai, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Thailand, delivered video remarks," said H.E. Atthayut Srisamut. H.E. Atthayut Srisamut also said that Guangxi is the closest region to ASEAN among other Chinese provinces and regions, while Nanning serves as Guangxi's gateway to ASEAN. Therefore, bilateral exchange is convenient. "Nanning is the most suitable place to hold CAEXPO each year. The Royal Thai Consulate General in Nanning is willing to further promote trade and investment between China and Thailand," said H.E. Atthayut Srisamut.


Working with named calculations
SQL Server named calculations allow you to mine derived information in your data without having to change your source data. Get an overview of named calculations.
Named calculations are additional virtual columns on the tables in your DSV. This allows you to mine derived information in your data without having to change your source data. Anamed calculation consists of name, a SQL expression containing the calculation, and an optional description. The calculation can be any valid SQL expression. If you are not a SQL expert, here are some types of expressions that are useful in many data mining projects.
Figure 3.5 Completed MovieClick data source view
Arithmetic Operations
Standard SQL supports +, -, *, /, and % (modulo). For example you could create a Profit named calculation with the following formula:
[Sales Price] – [Item Cost]
Mathematical Functions
Mathematical functions are useful, especially when data in a column does not follow a uniform distribution. The SQL functions ABS, LOG, SIGN, and SQRT are particularly useful. Here are two examples:
 - To flatten out an exponentially increasing variable:
 LOG([Sales Quantity])
 - To create a flag for over/under budget quarters:
 SIGN([Actual Expenses] – [Budgeted Expenses])
 Compositing Expressions
 Often, the hypothesis you want to test depends on a variable that is a combination of two of the variables you already have. For example, it may not be interesting that a person is married or has children, but the combination of the two may provide valuable information. A composite expression for this situation could look like this:
 [Marital Status] +'' + [Has Children]
 CASE Expressions
 CASE expressions are an extremely flexible way to create meaningful variables for data mining. The CASE expression allows you to assign results based on the evaluation of one or more conditions. Useful applications of CASE are to change value labels, manually discretize columns, reduce the number of valid states, and convert an attribute from a nested table to the case level.
 - To change value labels:
 - CASE [Category]
 WHEN 1 THEN 'Food'
 WHEN 2 THEN 'Beverage'
 WHEN 3 THEN 'Goods'
 END CASE
 - Manually discretize a column:
 - CASE
 WHEN [Age] < 20 THEN 'Under 20'
 WHEN [Age] <= 30 THEN 'Between 20 and 30'
 WHEN [Age] <= 40 THEN 'Between 30 and 40'
 ELSE 'Over 40'
 - To reduce the number of valid states:
 CASE [Marital Status]
 WHEN 'Married' THEN [Marital Status]
 WHEN 'Never Married' THEN [Marital Status]
 ELSE 'Other'
 - To convert an attribute from a nested table to a case table:
 - CASE
 WHEN EXISTS
 (SELECT [Movie] FROM [Movies]
 WHERE [Movie]='Star Wars' AND
 THEN 'True'
 ELSE 'False'
 This would be done, for instance, when you wanted to convert a nested attribute to a case-level attribute. Note that if you still want to use the nested table in the model, you will have to use a named query to filter the attribute from the nested table, as described in the next section.
 Creating a Named Calculation on the Customers Table
 To create a named calculation to discretize and reduce the number of states in the Num Bedrooms column:
 1. Right-click the Customers table and select Create a named calculation.
 2. Enter the calculation name Bedrooms and optionally enter a description.
 3. Enter the following expression:
 WHEN [Num Bedrooms] = 1 THEN 'One'
 WHEN [Num Bedrooms] <= 3 THEN 'Two or Three'
 WHEN [Num Bedrooms] >= 4 THEN 'Four or more'
 ELSE 'None'
 Upon closing the dialog box, the DSV Designer will validate your expression and return any applicable errors. Once you have successfully created your calculation you can see the results by right-clicking the table and selecting Explore Data.

The perils of & (and prototypes too!)
In a recent post, Chris K asks, why do I recommend using function() rather than &function() or &function. I happened to see it right before heading to bed, but I wanted to respond, so who knows if this is a good example or not. Anyway here goes, look at this code (seen below if you have javascript), it prints 6 lines, do you know what they will be?
If you didn't that's ok, this is a bit of a toughie, and yes I threw in a gratuitous $" for fun (which is the string used to join a quoted array). For those of you without a terminal handy, the output is:
hello world and good bye!
2
hello world and good bye!
hello world
hello world
good bye!
In my example mysub enforces scalar context onto its argument. Now prototypes should not be used lightly, and I rarely recommend them, but when they are used, it is often for a good reason. In this case, the prototyped function is probably not what an author writing that function would have meant. (S)he probably meant, 'this function only takes one argument', and it kinda worked, but it didn't.
Anyway, the first lesson is that calling a function with & works, but it defeats prototypes. In the example the author was probably wrong to use prototypes, but in most cases, as I said, when a prototype is used, it is for a good reason, and defeating them should come with even MORE reason.
I have actually almost used that once, I wanted to make a clever wrapper of List::Util::reduce and to do so I would have had to defeated its prototype. The endeavor failed and so that code did not see the light of day, but it got close. Other than that case, I have never needed to defeat a prototype, and so I have never used &function() in anger.
&function is more clever and is used in some more common wrappings. It means call the function() but with my current @_. This isn't as useful as its 'twin' goto &function which mean, 'stop this function and instead start doing function() with my current @_ instead, and remove the current function call from the stack trace'. This is actually useful for function wrapping, say like in an AUTOLOAD function. Again, though, you do this when you mean to, not all the time. I think I have perhaps used goto &function a half-dozen times in anger.
The take-away message here is, in Perl 5 you should almost always be using function() or function (though the bareword is confusing in some cases, especially if you forget strict and warnings!). You should almost never need (and therefore not want to accidentally incur the potential side-effects) of using &. They won't happen often, but when you get into the habit of using & and you do accidentally defeat a useful prototype, or unintentionally pass forward your @_, it will make for a terrible debugging session.
Anyway, as always, happy Perling!
P.S. I am happy to see that people still find Learn to Spot a Good Tutorial useful, and it reminds me that it will soon need another version and year bump!
P.P.S, the site that hosts that article also contains a list of good tutorials, and some "not so good ones" too, so you can use/recommend them.

I did not know all of the outputs (haven't been using prototypes so far). Great article!
There's a good example of the difference between func() and &func in this regression I reported in the Perl 5.18.0 debugger: You could no longer see the value of @_ in the debugger, because this line: eval { &DB::save }; was replaced with this: eval { DB::save() }; _URL_

text: Abstract With the increasing use of ultra-hard abrasives and the introduction of more powerful and rigid machines, honing process is spreading its performances. In industrial honing of cylinder liners for internal combustion engines, the degree of penetration that Metallic Bonded Diamond (MBD) abrasive stones have experienced compared to conventional Vitrified Bonded Silicon Carbide (VBSC) tools is obvious. The long tool life of metal bonded diamond sticks is however balanced by its main role in producing torn and folded metal without cutting-effect finish. To simultaneously reduce folding and remove the stock with improved stone life, an experimental investigation is reported on the process variability in finish honing behavior due to stone inconsistency and nature of its properties. We consider the achievable performances by finish honing of cast iron liners with a new abrasive stone. This superabrasive consists of micro-sized diamond abrasives which are bonded with vitrified bond (VBD). By selection of finer grit abrasive while honing with VBD tool, conditions could be created that gave a cutting-effect finish to the diamond honing and minimized the folding over.

Containers in dotCMS allow you to specify both what types of Content can be added to a Page and how content of each of those Content Types is displayed. Specifically, Containers allow you to perform the following important functions:
- Determine which Content Types a user can add to a Page.
- A user can not add content of a given Content Type to a Page unless the Page's Template includes a Container that accepts content of that type.
- Create blocks of code which are re-usable on multiple Templates.
- Containers (and especially Zero Content Containers) can contain code, which can then be shared among Templates and Pages by including the Container in multiple different Templates.
- Specify different and re-usable formatting and styling for each different Content Type that can be displayed in the Container.
- Individual content items are placed inside Containers, Containers are placed inside Templates, and Templates are placed inside Pages. So individual content items are ultimately displayed (and formatted) in Pages via Containers.
- You can also create different Containers that format and display the same Content Type in different ways (such as a summary view and a detailed view), allowing you to select how a Content Type is displayed in different Templates just by choosing the appropriate Container.
- Content Type Formatting
- Container Types
Content Type Formatting
Properly created containers control how the fields of each Content Type display on the Page (including whether or not each field of the Content Type is displayed at all). This ensures that content contributors don't have to worry about coding or CSS styling, and that all content of the same Content Type is displayed in the same way (even on multiple different pages). Content contributors simply contribute content by filling out each field available on the Content Type, and when the content is added to a Page it displays with the appropriate styling and selected fields for that Content Type.
Note: A given Container can only appear once in each Template, but each Container can be used on multiple different Templates (once in each Template).
There are two basic types of containers in dotCMS:
- Zero Content Containers do not have Content Types assigned to them.
- Content Containers allow content creators to add Content of certain Content Types to them.
Zero Content Containers (Headers, Footers, Side Navigation, etc.)
Zero Content Containers do not have Content Types assigned to them. The Max Contents property of the Container must be set to 0, and content contributors will not be able to add content to them.
Content Containers allow content creators to add individual content items to them. Content Container properties define all of the following:
- Which Content Types can be contributed to the Container.
- You may add one or more Content Types to the Container, and individual content items of all the added Content Types can be added to the Container.
- How content of each allowable Content Type should be formatted when added to the page (e.g. which fields of the Content Type should be shown and how they should be displayed).
- How many pieces of content can be contributed to the Container on a single Page.
- The total number of individual content items of all allowable Content Types that can be added to the container.
- Whether the content can edited through the inline editing mode.
- Which users have Permission to contribute content to the Container.
If the Max. Contents property is set to any number higher than zero, then the following Container properties can be set on a Content Container:

One of the most important tools a family lawyer can use in a divorce case is a lifestyle analysis: the process of tabulating and analyzing the income and expenses of the parties in order to confirm or refute a spouse's income claims, among other uses. This updated edition of Lifestyle Analysis in Divorce Cases: Investigating Spending and Finding Hidden Income and Assets discusses these subjects in logical, easy-to-understand manner, bringing clarity to a topic that could be confusing for attorneys and judges who often lack an accounting or finance background.
A financial expert or forensic accountant can play an integral part in a divorce case involving complex financial matters. One of the most important tools they can use is a lifestyle analysis, a component being employed in an increasing number of divorces.
Lifestyle Analysis in Divorce Cases walks through the critical documents used in the lifestyle analysis, as well as the process used to complete a thorough and accurate analysis. The book discusses in detail the information that can be gleaned from tax returns, financial statements, bank statements, and other financial documents. The lifestyle analysis is then used to determine the standard of living for all parties, which will influence important support calculations and may affect property division. Additionally, a lifestyle analysis can uncover hidden sources of income and be used to evaluate the finances of each party in a prenuptial agreement.
Author Tracy Coenen, CPA, CFF, discusses these subjects in a manner that is logical and easy to understand, bringing clarity to a topic that could be confusing for attorneys, judges, and juries who often lack an accounting or finance background. The book begins with the critical factors to use in analyzing a couple's standard of living, followed by a discussion of the various types of income and why they should be either included or excluded from calculations in a family law case.
To help an attorney determine whether a lifestyle analysis is necessary for a particular case, the author discusses the numerous red flags that may indicate hidden income or assets or other financial irregularities, including sources for obtaining information, the documents needed for a lifestyle analysis and a strategy for gathering and managing these documents, and discovery from the perspective of the financial expert. Additional chapters focus on key elements included in a lifestyle analysis, including:
- Analyzing historical spending
- Locating hidden assets
- Business lifestyle analysis
- Reporting and testifying
Appendices include a financial discovery checklist, sample Form 1040 and related schedules, and a direct examination checklist.

Self-healing concrete is used to fill up the cracks after hardening, which is developed in structures with the help of bacterial reactions in the concrete.
Self-healing concrete is the process of self-healing up of cracks or self-filling of damages with the help of bacterial reaction in the concrete after hardening.
The use of technology has taken the construction standards to a new high level in modern days. To attain a very good, sustainable, and economic concrete construction, different procedures, methods, and materials are used.
In repetitive dry and wet cycles, it can be observed that small cracks that occur in a structure of width in the range of 0.05mm to 0.1mm get wholly sealed, but the need for other remedial work is required when the cracks are of greater width occurs.
Self-healing concrete is one of the alternative processes for cracks, and before and after the crack, this common problem of cracking in the building has many remedies.
For self-healing of cracks, the bacteria used are acid-producing, and these types of bacteria can be viable for over 200 years under dry conditions and can be in dormant cells. Thus, in the crack healing process, these bacteria act as a catalyst.
Types of Bacteria Used in Concrete:
In the self-healing concrete, there are various types of bacteria used, such as;
As a result of the biological reaction of non-reacted limestone and a calcium-based nutrient self-healing concrete is formed, and calcium nutrients called 'Calcium Lactate' special type of bacteria's are known as' 'Bacillus'. These products are added to the wet concrete when the mixing is done while preparation of concrete. For around 200 years, these bacteria can be in the dormant stage.
The water seeps in the cracks when the cracks appear in the concrete, and spores of the bacteria germinate and start feeding on the calcium lactate consuming oxygen. Then, to insoluble limestone, the soluble calcium lactate is converted.
Then the insoluble limestone starts to harden, and then without any external aid filling, the crack automatically begins. It also helps prevent corrosion of steel due to damages and improves the durability of steel-reinforced concrete.
Preparation of Self Healing Concrete:
There are two ways for the preparation of self-healing concrete as given below;
Direct Application Method
Direct Application Method:
In this method, when the mixing of concrete is done, bacterial spores and calcium lactate are added to concrete directly. The average properties of concrete do not change with the use of this bacteria and calcium lactate.
To climatic changes, the bacteria are exposed, and they germinate and feed on calcium lactate and produce limestone when water comes in contact with this bacteria, and thus sealing the cracks is done.
In this method, concrete is prepared by the bacteria and its food such as calcium lactate which are placed inside treated clay pellets, and for making self-healing concrete, about 6% of the clay pellets are added.
The sealing of cracks is done when concrete structures are made with bacterial concrete and when the damage occurs in the construction, and clay pellets are broken. The bacteria germinate, eat down the calcium lactate, and produce limestone, which hardens, and cracks are sealing.
This method is costlier than direct application but most commonly used.
Chemical Process of Self Healing Concrete:
Calcium hydroxide is produced with the help of bacteria which acts as a catalyst when the water comes in contact with the un-hydrated calcium in the concrete. With atmospheric carbon dioxide, this calcium hydroxide reacts, which forms water and limestone.
In the concrete, the limestone then hardens itself and seals the cracks.
Test & Result of Self Healing Concrete:
On regular concrete and self-healing concrete, standard tests were conducted and for 7 and 28 days test conducted were compressive and flexural strength tests on a concrete cube.
Compressive Strength Test Result for 28 and 7 Days:
Advantages of Self Healing Concrete:
There are the following advantages such as;
Without any external aide, self-repairing of cracks.
When compared to the usual concrete significant increase in compressive strength and flexural strength.
It helps in the reduction in permeability of concrete and resistance towards attacks of freeze-thaw.
It improves the durability of steel-reinforced concrete and reduces the corrosion of steel due to crack formation.
To human life, Bacillus bacteria are harmless.

Bamboo For Energy Savings
Did you know bamboo can reduce energy costs?
Some of our clients have recognized as much as a $60 savings (each month) by planting bamboo near exposed areas of their home. Doing this essentially blocks the cash burning rays of the hot sun with shade providing bamboo.
Depending on just how exposed your home is, you could benefit from a real energy savings with as few as 6-7 plants! It will take you roughly just over a year to recoup your initial bamboo costs with a $60 energy savings.
- Every house is different, you may not save exactly $60 each month by planting shade bamboo especially during cooler months.
- You may save more or less depending on where your bamboo plants are located and how energy efficient your home is.
- You may want to consider situating the bamboo plants so they are both aesthetically pleasing from the inside and outside views of your home.
- If you are going for pure function over form, try to gauge the times when the most sun energy is hitting the largest area of exposed home.
- To optimize your bamboo for energy savings, take a long post (10-20′ tall) and walk from the exposed area of your home during the greatest periods of exposure. Simply look where the shade is being cast on your home. This will tell you where you need to plant your bamboo.
- You can move your plants later but keep in mind this can cause some initial shock and stunt growth so you will want to get it right the first time for maximum effect.
- Be sure to find the right mix of bamboo plants to ensure you are getting the greatest result. You can see many of our plants heights and characteristics by clicking here.

ACV vs ARR: Formulas, Tips, and Tricks for 2022
Revenue analytics is a crucial part of understanding how well your SaaS is doing. There are a ton of different metrics that you can use to measure your business's current situation. ACV and ARR are two of the most important ones, right after Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR).
In this article, I will go into detail about these two metrics so that you have a better understanding of your revenue analytics.
What is ACV?
Annual Contract Value (ACV) takes the average value an ongoing customer brings to a business in a year. This metric is mainly used by SaaS businesses operating on an annual or multi-year subscription basis, though businesses that use monthly subscriptions and different plans can use the Annual Contract Value by projecting their monthly revenue to a year as well.
What is ARR?
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) is the annual version of the MRR. Put simply, ARR is MRR*12.
When should you use ACV?
Annual Contract Value is not often used as a metric to measure growth: it's used more as a means to measure customer success on a case-by-case basis. You could use ACV:
- To measure the success of your marketing team in terms of demand generation: if the ACV is high for a customer or for multiple customers, they are creating demand and getting a lot of people to sign contracts.
- To calculate the revenue brought by a single customer in order to understand the value they bring to your business,
- To compare the revenue generated by customers in different contracts more accurately.
Based on what you want to measure, you may include or exclude one-time contract charges. Excluding them may result in a better comparison between customers, but it may create a distorted image in terms of your long-term marketing success.
When should you use ARR?
Annual Recurring Revenue is the metric you should go to while measuring the yearly growth of your company. This metric is less focused on individual cases since it's just the sum of all types of recurring revenue in a year (as explained below in the calculations.) You can use ARR:
- To make future predictions and investments: you'll need to know how much revenue you're expecting in a year or in multiple years,
- Since ARR only takes into account revenue from subscriptions, and not one time purchases, it can be used to determine the success of a subscription model,
- Comparing the ARR of different years tells you about your different marketing decisions' impacts.
If your subscriptions have non-standard lengths, such as 8 months or 9 months and 30 days, your ARR may not give you a logical picture. You may need to adjust the calculations accordingly or use a similar SaaS marketing metric, MRR.
How do you calculate ACV?
Calculating Annual Contract Value is pretty easy. The equation is:
ACV = Total contract values / Total years in contract
Let's assume that two customers signed up to your company with different plans:
- Customer X chose a $420 per year plan for 2 years. One-time fee for this plan is $70.
- Customer Y chose a $200 per year plan for 2 years. One-time fee for this plan is $50.
PS. If you charge a one-time fee (for set-up or training), your ACV for the first year will be higher than the other years in a multi-year subscription plan.
Here's what your ACV will be when you look at both customers at the same time:
- ACV for the first year = ($420 + $70 + $200 + $50)/2 = $370
- ACV for the second year = ($420 + $200)/2 = $310
As you can see, the ACV for the first year is obviously higher than the second year because of the one-time fee for the transaction in the first year. You could also measure the ACV of X and Y separately, which would look like:
- ACV customer X = ($420 + $70)/2 = $245
- ACV for customer Y = ($200 + $50)/2 = $125
How do you calculate ARR?
Annual Recurring Revenue is the sum of the amount each customer pays you in a calendar year.
This is the equation for ARR:
ARR (annual recurring revenue) = Total annual revenue – Nonrecurring revenue
We can look at an example with three different customers with different subscription plans.
Customer A: Chose the plan to pay $1500/year for 1 year
Customer B: Chose the plan to pay $1200/year for 2 years
Customer C: Chose the plan to pay $1700/year for 3 years
In this scenario, ARR value will be:
Year 1: $1500 + $1200 + $1700 = $4400
Year 2: $1200 + $1700 = $2900
Year 3: $1700 = $1700
If you were to calculate ACV in this example, the result would be:
Year 1: ($1500 + $1200 + $1700)/3 = $1466.6
Year 2: ($1200 + $1700)/2 = $1450
Year 3: ($1700)/1 = $1700
ACV is the average of all subscription revenue. ARR is the sum of what each customer pays for the subscription plan in a year. They have similar points about functions but there are these little nuances.
Typical ACV for SaaS Businesses
It seems like there is no specific "Typical ACV value" or structure for SaaS businesses. There is a huge variation in subscription models, pricing, business to the customer versus business to business sales, and own calculations of the companies.
Research shows that values and requirements vary tremendously according to the scale of companies and the actions they take.
Let's look at a study of RJMetrics. This study indicated that the ACV value differs a lot between B2B and B2C. According to the research, the average ACV of B2C SaaS companies is $100, while for B2B it is $1,079.
Other revenue metrics that you should track
MRR measures the monthly recurring revenue a SaaS gets from subscriptions.
CAC (Customer Acquisition Costs)
CAC refers to the total amount you spend to obtain a new customer – including all the sales and marketing expenses that you pay to get those customers.
ACV is directly proportional to CAC.
A good CAC ratio for your company depends on the customer lifetime value of your business.
CAC and LTV (customer lifetime value) go together in this path:
Measures the cost to acquire a customer
LTV (Lifetime value)
It is a prediction of the aggregate contribution of an average customer to the company generally during the lifetime of the customer. The lifetime value of a customer.
But if you have more than one customer –hopefullyyou will be in a need to use two more metrics to benefit LTV completely in your analysis. They are Churn Rate and Average Revenue Per User (ARPU).
Churn rate refers to the number of customers who unsubscribed or stopped their payments for the subscription of your service. This cancellation information will keep you updated about the current situation of your SaaS company.
Example: If the number of subscribers was 1000 last year and lost 70, your churn rate is 7%.
ARPU(Average Revenue Per User / Unit)
Measures the overall revenue generated per user or unit. Total revenue of your business / the total number of customers you have in a given duration.
Example: If you have 1000 accounts in your company, and from 500 of them, you made $20 per year, and from the other 500 you made $30 per year, then your ARPU is $25 yearly.

A cooling system
The manufacture of water-soluble sodium silicate (water glass) does not include a forming process after the melting phase. The glass must simply be cooled down in a controlled way. A special plate conveyor with a heat resistant surface has been developed for this. The glass flows onto the plates directly from the melter and cools as a result of air convection. It is then crushed to obtain the necessary grain size. Dissolved in water, sodium silicate is used in many products such as detergents, colours and adhesives.

Abstract Share this page
Abstract PURPOSE: Recurrence is a major concern in management of temporomandibular joint ankylosis. In this study functional outcomes of gap arthroplasty (group I) and temporalis myofascial interposition arthroplasty (group II) are compared. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Preoperative, intraoperative, and follow-up data were noted from our departmental database. Outcome variables were postoperative mouth opening, open bite, recurrence, and facial nerve dysfunction. The χ2 test, Fisher test, t test, 2-sample Wilcoxon rank sum test, and logistic regression analysis were used. RESULTS: Group I comprised 207 patients, and group II comprised 55 patients. The mean age was 12.9 years (SD, 7.0 years). There were 220 nonrecurrent and 42 recurrent cases. The mean follow-up period was 3.78 years (SD, 3.0 years). In first time-operated cases, the recurrence rate was 14.7\% in group I and 4.8\% in group II. In recurrent cases, the recurrence rate was 34.5\% and 30.8\%, respectively. The differences were statistically insignificant. CONCLUSIONS: In first-time operated temporomandibular joint ankylosis cases, both treatments are satisfactory in preventing recurrence, but the recurrence rate increases with previous recurrences.

What Are Mutually Intelligible Languages? The Answer, and Examples for 8 World Languages
Foreign languages aren't always as foreign as you'd expect.
If you speak Russian, you might be surprised at how much Ukrainian you understand. Or as an English speaker, you might catch the gist of some Scots.
There's a good reason for this: mutual intelligibility.
This is a great boon to travelers and language learners. If you've studied one language, you may very well understand some of another—or have a much easier time learning it.
- What Are Mutually Intelligible Languages?
- The Mutually Intelligible Languages of 8 Popular World Languages
- What You Should Know About Mutually Intelligible Languages
What Are Mutually Intelligible Languages?
Briefly put, mutual intelligibility is when speakers of one language can understand a related language to some degree.
Mutual intelligibility is highly subjective. Between sources, you might find some claiming that two languages are mutually intelligible, while other sources claim those same languages aren't.
Because mutual intelligibility comes in varying degrees, it's hard to determine how much overlap there needs to be for something to be classified as such. This list focuses on common languages widely thought to be at least partially and mutually intelligible.
The Mutually Intelligible Languages of 8 Popular World Languages
Russian is partially mutually intelligible with Ukrainian, Rusyn and Belarusian.
Russian has 85% intelligibility with Rusyn (which has a small number of speakers in Central and Eastern Europe). Russian is also 85% mutually intelligible with Belarusian and Ukrainian in writing. However, Russian is only 74% mutually intelligible with spoken Belarusian and 50% mutually intelligible with spoken Ukrainian.
Russian speakers are also likely to understand some Bulgarian, along with other Slavic languages to a lesser extent.
Scots and English are considered mutually intelligible. Albeit, Scots dialect is far more pronounced than English, and at times, can be unintelligible.
In writing, however, Scots language looks similar to English (albeit with some spelling variations).
French has a reasonable degree of lexical similarity with Italian, Sardinian, Romansh, Portuguese, Romanian and Spanish, making it partially mutually intelligible with these languages.
French has 89% lexical similarity with Italian, 80% similarity with Sardinian (spoken on the Italian island of Sardinia), 78% similarity with Romansh (spoken in parts of Switzerland) and 75% similarity with Portuguese, Romanian and Spanish.
German is partially mutually intelligible with Yiddish and Dutch.
Because they use different alphabets, German and Yiddish are only mutually intelligible when spoken. Yiddish speakers usually have an easier time understanding German than vice versa, largely because Yiddish has added words from other languages, including Hebrew and Slavic languages, which makes it more difficult for German speakers to understand.
In writing, German is also somewhat mutually intelligible with Dutch. However, Dutch speakers usually understand more German than the reverse because they study German in school.
Italian is partially mutually intelligible with French, Catalan, Sardinian, Spanish, Ladin and Romanian.
It is estimated that there is 89% lexical similarity with French, 87% similarity with Catalan (spoken in Southern Spain), 85% with Sardinian, 82% with Spanish, 78% with Ladin (spoken in Northern Italy) and 77% with Romanian.
Portuguese has varying degrees of mutual intelligibility with Spanish, Galician, French and Italian.
It has a very high degree of mutual intelligibility with Galician (spoken in Northwestern Spain), which is a language that's sort of a cross between Portuguese and Spanish. Portuguese also has a high degree of mutual intelligibility with Spanish.
While not usually considered "mutually intelligible," there's also enough similarity between French and Italian that speakers of Portuguese may understand both of these languages.
Spanish has varying degrees of mutual intelligibility with Galician, Portuguese, Catalan, Italian, Sardinian and French.
Spanish is most mutually intelligible with Galician. It's also highly intelligible with Portuguese in writing, though less so when spoken. The overall lexical similarity between Spanish and Portuguese is estimated to be 89%.
Spanish and Catalan have a lexical similarity of 85%. Spanish is also partially mutually intelligible with Italian, Sardinian and French, with respective lexical similarities of 82%, 76% and 75%.
There are distinct regional variations of Arabic. However, many of these dialects are at least partially mutually intelligible. Rural variations are usually less mutually intelligible.
While common speech from urban areas aren't always mutually intelligible across regions, speakers from these regions can often use a more formal form of Arabic to speak with each other. Additionally, some Arabic speakers may be familiar with Egyptian Arabic through the media, so they may rely on this to bridge any language gaps.
Tunisian Arabic is also considered mutually intelligible with Maltese, particularly with regards to idiomatic expressions.
What You Should Know About Mutually Intelligible Languages
Understanding the connection between mutually intelligible languages, can make it easier to learn an additional language. If you choose to study a language that's mutually intelligible with one you already know, chances are you'll have to put a lot less work in than if you were learning a language from scratch.
If you're learning multiple languages at once, pairing similar languages is a great way to maximize your studying.
Finally, understanding mutual intelligibility gives you helpful insight into the history of a language. Sets of similar languages are the result of shared origin, so knowing a little more about mutual intelligibility can help you understand their origin.
Linguistic distance is the relative degree of difference between languages or dialects. How this is measured varies, but mutual intelligibility and vocabulary overlap, and often play a role in these calculations.
This term is similar to linguistic distance in that it can reflect how similar or different languages are. However, lexical similarity focuses on exclusively overlapping vocabulary to determine similarity between languages.
Mutual intelligibility refers to whether speakers of one language can understand speakers of another language. This understanding can be in spoken or written communication. Mutual intelligibility also occurs in a wide variety of degrees, ranging from none, to partial, to full mutual intelligibility.
Between some languages, there can also be imbalanced mutual intelligibility, known as "asymmetric intelligibility." This occurs when speakers of one language can understand a related language to a greater degree than speakers of the related language can understand the other.
Frequency of exposure is one of the main causes of this. If speakers of one language have more exposure to its related language, they're likely to pick up more of that language.
Traditionally, dialects are regional variations of one main language. Usually, they're at least partially mutually intelligible with the main language they stem from.
That being said, the line between a language and a dialect is often blurred. For instance, Portuguese and Spanish have a relatively high degree of mutual intelligibility, but they're technically separate languages.
The Chinese language, on the other hand, is comprised of a number of dialects that aren't always mutually intelligible.
So give these mutually intelligible languages a second look. They have more in common than you might think!

3W students finished their first unit in Drama. The first unit focused on communicating feelings and emotion and building on the ideas of others to create.
We can communicate feelings, ideas and experiences in drama.
- Communicating emotion
- Building on our ideas
- Using our experiences
During this unit, students acted out emotions in drama games and collaborated with their peers to create skits. We began discussing different characters from fairytales and favourite stories and the qualities of the characters. Students acted out stories from chosen fairy tales. Each student then chose a character, listed the qualities of that character, then made a group to create a new story. Please enjoy the new stories the students have created. The videos are password protected. The password is 'drama'.

The McCree Curve represents the average photosynthetic response of plants to light energy (see chart below). It was developed by Dr. Keith McCree in the 1970s based on his research of 22 plant species. He found that much of a plant's development and response to light happened within this portion of the spectrum.
The McCree Curve, also known as the Plant Sensitivity Curve, begins at 350nm and extends to 750nm. Later studies extended this curve out to 300nm to 800nm. This curve can be placed over a spectral distribution chart as a guide to how well a light source can affect photosynthesis.


Nature has ways of providing us with everything we need to sustain ourselves if modern society fails us. What sources of food would benefit us in the wild? We know we can eat deer, fish, or even squirrels, but can you eat a possum? Furthermore, if we can, what's the best way to prepare it and what other benefits can eating a possum offer us?
Let's find out.
Can Humans Eat Possums?
Yes, humans can eat possums as long you cook them the right way. Otherwise, you may face an issue worse than starvation due to the ailments possums might carry.
You should skin them to check for diseases these creatures might harbor. Otherwise, clean the meat, and you have yourself a decent meal in the forest when you have no other options.
People in New Zealand have eaten brushtail possums ever since their introduction to the country in 1837. These creatures became such a significant threat to the country's environment that citizens were encouraged to kill them. So, some decided that it would be efficient to eat them as well rather than wasting meat.
In the United States, we have the Virginia opossum. Many will also find this same species throughout Canada. However, humans can still eat these possums. As a matter of fact, as a child, Jimmy Carter ate a lot of them.
However, possums serve as an essential mediator in nature. These wild animals control local pests like mice in addition to insects. They also eat nearly anything from rotting fruit, to slugs, to cockroaches. Because they are immune to snake venom and scorpion stings, they are a great natural quality control for these dangers.
Because of this, I only recommend eating possums if you're in a dire situation.
What Does Possum Meat Taste Like?
While some say possums taste like a lamb, others state their taste depends on their food supply at the time.
If you have an opossum whose diet revolves around eggs, fruit, and bugs will have a more pleasant taste than eating one that has survived off of pet food or whatever's in the garbage cans.
If the possum ate garbage before you killed it, the meat's scent would be a dead giveaway. If it did eat trash, it doesn't mean it'll taste like it. The possum would likely have a greasy taste.
When you're in the wild and hunt a possum, you won't run into this problem. Wild possums generally feast on whatever they can find, including animals, plants, seeds, and insects.
Some people like to add garnishes to their possums. If you're in the woods, you likely won't have any on you. However, you can enhance the possum's flavor and transform it into a tastier meal with natural garnishes like wild thyme or rosemary.
Possum meat isn't gamey like other meat you'll find in the wild. It has a fair amount of protein and nutrients to keep you going whenever you don't have anything else to eat. Possum meat is a great source of Protein with around 241% of your daily value in one pound of meat. It also includes Niacin, Vitamin B6, Iron, Phosphorus and Selenium, and provides a high amount of Vitamin B12.
Possum meat is low in sodium, but does contain quite a bit of cholesterol.
What Diseases Can You Get From a Possum?
The primary disease to watch out for when eating possums is tuberculosis (TB). Moreover, opossums potentially carry other diseases they pick up from eating insects like ticks and other parasites, however opossums are generally resistant to many diseases.
You can determine whether a possum has TB by skinning them and observing their groin and underarm glands. If you notice them swelling into large abscesses identical to a golf ball, then the opossum isn't safe to eat.
Fortunately, possums are resistant to rabies. This is because their body temperatures are too low to host the rabies virus. It is also rare that they contract Lyme disease from tick bites. Keep in mind that even if they're drooling and hissing at you, it's just a part of their self-defense arsenal to ward off predators.
How Do You Cook Possum?
To properly cook a possum to avoid eating unclean meat, you'll want to follow these steps:
 - Skin it to see whether they have any diseases and to rid the animal of any lice or fleas.
 - Hang it from a tree, cut its throat, and let its blood drain.
 - Remove its organs and bury them underground to avoid attracting predators.
 - Rinse the opossum meat inside and out.
 - Jab your possum with a giant stick and hover it over a campfire. Hold and rotate once in a while until your opossum's crispy like chicken.
If you're backpacking and have an extra cooking pot, cooking possums can also be achieved by throwing your meat into the pot, fill it with a bit of water, and stew your opossum for about an hour.
It is essential to thoroughly cook the meat. If you eat undercooked meat, you can risk getting sick which could eventually lead to severe consequences in the wild.
When stewing, the possum's fat will mix with the water, making for a tasty possum gravy.
If you happen to have extra spices like pepper in your bag that were intended for recipes before you ran out of food, add it to the crisp or stewed possum. That way, you'll get a little more kick from your meat.
Unfortunately, you're not likely going to have your pressure cooker when in the woods for an exquisite opossum meal. So, you're going to have to eat possums like European settlers.
How Do You Kill a Possum Quickly?
The best way to kill a possum quickly is with a shotgun or pistol to end its life in the most humane way possible. Otherwise, if you don't have a gun on you, opt for trapping it instead.
If there's any intention of eating the possum, do not poison it because that almost guarantees you would ingest the same poison.
If you decide to trap it, these critters are generally unaware of their surroundings and are easy to catch. If you happen to have a cage trap on you, set bait inside the cage. Some bait the possum would go for, like fruit, marshmallows, or cat food—if you happen to have any for some reason.
If there's no cage in your bag, but there is a net, use it to catch the possum if you find it trapped.
There aren't any specific laws in the United States that state opossums are protected. Moreover, there are open seasons for trapping and hunting these animals.
However, some areas forbid you from handling possums yourself. Rangers would kill the possum by using carbon dioxide so research state and local wildlife laws before trapping and hunting possums.
Humans can eat possums under the right circumstances. Ensure you check the critter for tuberculosis before cleaning and cooking it. Otherwise, for the most part, it's safe to eat these creatures. If you decide to kill possums, either trap them or shoot them to end its life quickly.
Whether you're lost in the woods or are running out of food, possums make for an excellent protein source. One that'll also fill your belly and give you enough energy to do whatever you need.

Skip (curling)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Curling positions
In curling, the skip (also called a "skipper") is the captain of the team. The skip is responsible for determining strategy, and holds the broom in the house (target area) to indicate where a teammate at the other end of the curling sheet (playing area) should aim the stone. The skip usually throws the last two stones in the fourth position, but the skip can play in any other position.
Skips Madeleine Dupont, Andrea Schöpp, and Mirjam Ott hold their brooms on the ice at the 2010 Winter Olympics.
Overall, the skip is responsible for leading the team and giving it strategic direction.[1] The skip calls shots for his or her teammates to play[2] through verbal direction and/or physical gestures. In many cases, the skip communicates the planned trajectory of the shot by tapping his or her broom on the ice, and will motion to other stones in the playing area if they are involved in the planned shot. The skip will usually determine the required weight, turn and line of the stone, and hold the broom for the throwing player to aim at. As each stone is delivered, the skip calls the line of the shot and communicates with the sweepers as the stone travels down the sheet.[3] The skip will gauge the stone's path and call to the sweepers to sweep in order to maintain the stone's path. In most cases, the skip, playing the fourth stones, must be able to deliver these last stones comfortably, a difficult task in that the last stones are usually the most crucial to the end.[4][5] As the person throwing last stones, the skip must also have a good repertoire of shots and the ability to execute many types of shots at will.[2][4]
As the game progresses, the skip must assess different aspects of the game, such as the timing of the rocks and the characteristics of the curling sheet, and use them to decisively create the most optimal shot choices and tactics. The skip should be able to read the ice and call the game accordingly, taking into consideration the ice conditions.[6] Moreover, the skip must understand the playing style and strengths of each player on his or her team. As the captain of the team, the skip's knowledge of his or her teammates will allow the skip to call shots according to the their abilities and orient the team's strategy towards its strengths.[4] The skip must also observe the opposition's gameplay and pinpoint their strengths and weakness in order to shape his or her own team's strategy into one which places the opposition at the least advantage.[5]

Adolphe CrémieuxArticle Free Pass
Adolphe Crémieux, original name Isaäc Moïse (born April 30, 1796, Nîmes, Fr.—died Feb. 10, 1880, Paris), French political figure and Jewish leader active in the Revolution of 1848 and the Paris Commune (1871).
After a distinguished legal career in Nîmes, he was appointed advocate of the Court of Appeals in Paris (1830), where he gained further renown for his legal skill and oratory.
In 1842 Crémieux was elected to the Chamber of Deputies from the Indre-et-Loire département and quickly emerged as a leading member of the radical left. He played a prominent role in the revolutionary movements of 1848 and served as minister of justice in the provisional government of 1848–49. He voted for the presidential candidacy of Louis-Napoléon, but, when he withdrew his support, he was imprisoned. After his release, he returned to the bar and left-wing politics. He returned to the Chamber in 1869, representing a Parisian district, and, when the Second Empire collapsed, he joined the Government of National Defense (1870–71) as minister of justice. Subsequently, he served as a deputy from Algiers (1871–75) and then senator (1875–80).
Crémieux was an important leader of the French Jewish community. He lent his prestige and political influence to numerous campaigns for the normalization of Jewish life in France and Algeria, backing the enfranchisement of North African Jews. He was a founder of the influential Universal Israelite Alliance and was its president from 1863 to 1880.

Provide flow control in conjunction with any of the other stormwater management offerings to mitigate potential issues associated with high flows and maintain the effectiveness of your water quality treatment unit or Best Management Practice (BMP). Diversion structures protect and increase the efficiency of BMPs by allowing only the water quality flow (treatment flow) to enter the BMP. Flow rates greater than the water quality flow are allowed to bypass the BMP.
Stormwater enters the structure via the inlet pipe and encounters a weir. The weir height is set at a predetermined elevation, in order to direct the treatment flow (water quality flow) into a BMP. Jensen Water Resources diversion structures can be manufactured with an adjustable height weir, allowing for fine-tuning and setting the final weir elevation in the field as necessary. The weir crest is set at an elevation such that flow greater than the treatment flow overtops the weir and bypasses the BMP, thereby ensuring that the BMP operates efficiently and effectively, and that previously captured pollutants are not re-suspended.

By examining the words of Jesus in the context of their time and place, Reed shows Jesus never called for the political process to rearrange wealth. He denounced envy. He stressed choice, accountability and private property. He endorsed keeping one's word and honoring contracts. He emphasized principles of personal character and the Golden Rule. These things are all difficult to reconcile with political force.
Now, when anyone suggests that the teachings of Jesus are in any way incompatible with free markets or capitalism, defenders of free markets can provide concise and conclusive responses. There is no other publication that does the job as fully or is as accessible as Rendering Unto Caesar.

Inter-annual variations in wave characteristics off Ratnagiri, Northeast Arabian Sea
MetadataShow full item record
The wave data measured using the Datawell directional wave rider buoy at 13 m water depth off Ratnagiri during 2010 to 2013 is used to study the inter-annual variations in the wave characteristics. The percentage occurrence of waves with significant wave height (Hs) less than 1 m is the same in all 3 years, but the occurrence of high waves (Hs > 1m) is not same in all the years. The extreme wave events occur during the monsoon period and if these wave events persists for longer periods cause coastal erosion and hence we have examined the events lasting more than 5 h with different threshold limits of wave height (2.5,3 and 3.5 m). Average Hs during the monsoon is around 3 times that in non-monsoon period. Average of the maximum wave spectral energy density is 12 times higher in monsoon than in non-monsoon. Inter-annual variations in monthly average Hs is maximum (0.5 m) in June and September due to the change in the monsoon intensity. The inter-annual variation in annual average Hs is around 0.1m and the annual average peak period is 0.1 to 0.5 s. The monsoon average peak period is slightly higher than the values during the non-monsoon period. The joint distribution of the peak wave period and the mean wave direction indicate three peaks; one corresponding to the southwest swells during the post-monsoon season, the second for the southwest-westerly monsoon waves and the third for the northwest waves during the pre-monsoon season.

A transposition is an operation that exchanges two adjacent substrings. When it is restricted so that one of the substrings is a prefix, it is called a prefix transposition. The prefix transposition distance between a pair of strings (permutations) is the shortest sequence of prefix transpositions required to transform a given string (permutation) into another given string (permutation). This problem is a variation of the transposition distance problem, related to genome rearrangements. An upper bound of n-1 and a lower bound of n/2 are known. We improve the bounds to n-log8 n and 2n/3 respectively. We also give upper and lower bounds for the prefix transposition distance on strings. For example, n/2 prefix transpositions are always sufficient for binary strings. We also prove that the exact prefix transposition distance problem on strings is NP complete.
