define compound units and datum measurements cannot be directly used as factors in mathematical formulae. There is also no conversion between a datum measurement and the quanitity unit on which it is based other than by differences as described above.
The one exception that is not restrained by these limitations is an absolute datum measurement:
C++
ulib_absolute_datum_Measurement(Kelvin, degrees_C, 273)
Kelvin is an expression of temperature in the same way as Celcius and Fahrenheit but with a different datum. Therefore it must be defined as a datum measurement, especially if we want correct automatic conversion with Celcius and Fahrenheit. However its zero datum of absolute zero really does represent non-existence therefore its numerical value really does represent a true quantity and is used as such in mainstream thermodynamics. Accordingly an absolute datum measurement can be be used to form compound units...
C++
ulib_compound_Unit( Kelvin_Kgs, =, Kgs, Mult, Kelvin)
...and absolute datum measurement variables can be directly used as factors in mathematical formulae if they are postfixed with ()
C++
kelvin abs_temp=200;
Kgs mass=5;
Kelvin_Kgs KKgs =abs_temp() * mass;
The new datum measurement types have been developed with some thought to their application in other dimensions. The library should embrace what it needs to in a generic manner. I can think of two other examples:
 - Date and Time - When we define seconds as a unit of the TIME dimension, we are really talking about a time interval not a point in time. If we want to store and use a Date Time then we must define it as a datum measurements with the Christian, Muslim, Chinese and computer manufactures versions all using different points in real time as their zero datum. N.B. Only cosmologists can even begin to talk about absolute time or the non-existence of time and although they may be quite certain about what happened in the first few seconds I don't think they can say with the same precision how long ago that was. So an absolute datum measurement in the time dimension isn't really viable.
 - Height (as in altitude) - It is sometimes convenient to record heights against a reference scale and enter them into a formula which will internally calculate the height differences that it works with. You may wish to record variously height above a particular point on the ground, height above sea level or height above the centre of the Earth. We can use datum measurement types for each of them which define how they are related and ensure that conversions are carried out correctly but height above the centre of the Earth has a case for being an absolute datum measurement. Zero above the centre of the Earth really does represent absolute non-existence of height and it is the measurement that can be applied directly as a factor in geometrical formulae in the most general sense.

Quick reference
The library (that is the engine for unit definitions) is made available for use simply by including a single header file (provided in the download) with no dependancies.
C++
#include "ulib.h"
Most of the library is wrapped in a private namespace that you need never know about. Your access to it is unseen and carried out by the macros used to define units. You may wish to wrap the units that you define in a namespace but if you do so, make sure that ulib.h is included within that namespace.
C++
namespace myunits{
#include "ulib.h"
#include "myunits.h" //This is where you define your units
}

Macros used to define units (quantities) are:
C++
ulib_Dimension(1, LENGTH)
ulib_base_Unit(LENGTH, metres)
ulib_compound_Unit( metres_psec, =, metres, Div, secs)
ulib_Unit_as_inverse_of( Herz, secs )
ulib_scaled_Unit(Kms, =, 1000, metres)
ulib_precalc_Unit_to_Unit(feet_pmin, Kms_psec)
and with multiple base unit systems:
C++
ulib_multiple_Bases(2)
ulib_all_bases_Unit(TIME, secs)
ulib_base2_Unit(LENGTH, cms, =, 0.01, metres)
//N.B. ulib_base_unit and ulib_base1_unit are equivalent.
Type modifiers for unit declarations are:
C++
sq_metres
cubic_metres
to_power<secs, 4>::type
inverse_of<secs>::type
Dot methods of unit type variables are:
C++
double variable.as<unit_type> ()
unit_type variable.integer_root<root_function, positive integer>()
bool variable.is_approx<tolerance_unit, numerator, denominator>(variable2)
int n=variable1.goes_into(variable2, Remainder)
Named global functions are:
C++
double as<unit_type> (unit_variable)
root_unit_type integer_root<root_function, positive integer>(unit_variable)
Macros used to define datum measurements (reference points with respect to a datum) are:
C++
ulib_datum_Measurement(celcius, degrees_c, 0)
ulib_absolute_datum_Measurement(kelvin, degrees_c, 273)
Promotion of absolute datum measurement variable to normal quantity unit by postfixing with ()
C++
kelvin abs_temp=200;
Kgs mass=5;
//then
Kelvin_Kgs KKgs =abs_temp() * mass;
abs_temp() = KKgs / mass;
//also
KKgs = kelvin(200)() * mass;
Global functions depreciated from the library are:
C++
root_unit_type Sqrt(unit_variable)
bool approx_equal<tolerance_unit, numerator, denominator>(numeric_variable1, numeric_variable2)
int how_many_in(U const& D, U2 const& N, U3 & R)
These can be activated with the ulib_using_depreciated(function_name) macro
Encapsulation of dimensional analysis
Barton's and Nackman's approach to dimensional analysis (mentioned earlier) is encapsulated by struct dimensions which has no data members because it is only involved in type formation and type matching at compile time.:
C++
template <int d1, int d2, int d3, int d4, int d5, int d6, int d7>
 struct dimensions
 {
 enum { D1=d1, D2=d2, D3=d3, D4=d4, D5=d5, D6=d6, D7=d7 };
 };
enum is used as a convenient way to declare a list of static const int members and initialise them. In this case they record the integer template parameters that define the class. As enums they are not allocated memory as variables and are simply inserted into runtime code wherever they appear, which in this case, is nowhere. As a result they act as pure compile time constants.
To work with this, structs are provided holding typedefs of dimensions structs representing operations on and combinations of other dimensions structs:
 - An explicit single dimension:
C++
template <int num> struct single_dimension
{
 typedef dimensions<(1==num)?1:0, (2==num)?1:0, (3==num)?1:0,
 (4==num)?1:0, (5==num)?1:0, (6==num)?1:0, (7==num)?1:0>
 dims;
};
//usage pattern
single_dimension<1>::dims LENGTH;
 - A power of an existing dimensions struct
C++
template<class dims_in, int P> struct dims_to_power
{
 typedef dimensions<dims_in::D1*P, dims_in::D2*P, dims_in::D3*P,
 dims_in::D4*P, dims_in::D5*P, dims_in::D6*P, dims_in::D7*P>
 dims;
};
 - Multiplication (op=Mult) and Division (op=Div) of one unit by another:
C++
//general definition
template<class t, class op, class b> struct Combine_dims;
struct Div{}; //Empty classes used only for selecting specialisation
struct Mult{};
//specialisation for multiplication - sum of dimension indices
template<class dims1, class dims2> struct Combine_dims<dims1, Mult, dims2>
{
 typedef dimensions<
 dims1::D1 + dims2:

Is there any way, shape, or form that ultraviolet light is recorded by a digital sensor? Ideally, this question is related strictly to the sensor, without even a glass lens in between which could cut or block UV light. But of course I don't take pictures with a bare sensor, I also have a lens, so I'd also like to know how much UV gets to the sensor to begin with.

Yes, digital sensors are indeed sensitive to UV light, as well as a considerable amount of the infrared spectrum. Most digital sensors are equipped with multi-coated, multi-layered filters that are designed to filter out the extended ranges of UV and IR. Generally speaking, filtered digital sensors are sensitive to a much broader range of light than the human eye, from about 250nm (the near-UV range) through visible light (400nm to 750nm), and down about 780nm (the IR range). Unfiltered, a digital sensor is sensitive to a far greater range, from deep UV (200nm, true UV) down to true IR (as far as 900nm) [#1]. It should be noted that sensitivity is not constant throughout this range, and falloff is fairly rapid and becomes significant the farther away from 380nm you go. Same goes for the IR range. Human eyesight ranges on average from about 390nm through 700nm, while some people are more sensitive and able to see from about 380nm through 750nm.
Despite the filtration applied to digital sensors, UV light is still a problem, and can affect color balance. In general, the ability to sense UV light is not a huge problem, as digital sensors have relatively weak sensitivity to blue, and the UV sensitivity is generally captured as blue. However, without proper filtration, UV dispersion can generate disruptive haze that can be captured by a digital sensor, which may result in a rather undesirable result.
It should be noted that optical glass filters out a considerable amount of UV light. Most UV wavelengths up to around 310nm are blocked by the glass of a camera lens, and the remainder from 310nm up through 380nm can be blocked with a UV/Haze filter. If one wishes to create images in the UV light range, special lenses are available. Non-standard materials such as quartz or calcium fluoride have a greater transparency to the UV spectrum. From a camera imaging perspective, most research shows the most interesting UV wavelengths probably lie between 250nm and 310nm [#2]. To get a clear UV shot, you may need to remove the UV filter that covers the sensor itself. This is similar to removing the IR filter when modifying a camera for IR work, or may involve removing the entire filter apparatus, which would remove both UV and IR filters at the same time (depends on the camera.)
 1. Infrared and ultraviolet imaging with a CMOS sensor having layered photodioedes
 - Introduction discusses unfiltered layered CMOS sensitivity range: 200nm - 1100nm
 - Layered CMOS (i.e. Foveon) tend to have a greater sensitivity range than bayer CMOS
 - Interesting discussion about the individual wavelength sensitivity of each color photosite (graphs included)
 - Seems a little out of date (2003/2004 period?), but still useful
 2. Digital Reflected-Ultraviolet Imaging
 - Older article from several years ago, covers reflected-UV imaging
 - Discussed the nature of UV imaging and how it differs from visual/IR imaging
 3. The Wratten 18A: A problematic filter for reflected-UV photography
 - Interesting article that uses an original Canon Rebel and a Wratten 18A filter to image UV
 - The Wratten 18A allows UV from ~290nm through 400nm
 - The older Canon Rebel CMOS sensor seems to image this wavelength range well
 4. Visible Light CMOS Sensors
 - Page 7 has a graph of CMOS vs. Human Eye sensitivity
 - Stops at 400nm, but shows that the CMOS sensitivity curve is still quite high at that point, and falls off at a moderate curvature (likely ends around 250nm-290nm)

Wow, lots of good information here. Do you have any sources to cite? – jfklein13 Aug 9 '10 at 21:11
I do, however they are bookmarked at home. Also, sadly, most of them were PDF scientific papers. The best one had to do with scientific imaging in UV, and discussed alternative lens element materials like quartz and fluoride derivatives. I'll see if I can dig them up. – jrista Aug 9 '10 at 21:25
I am not sure I actually bookmarked any of the stuff I've read about IR and UV imaging with digital cameras. There is a moderate amount of information available on the subject, but I remember most of it being contained within PDF's, usually some scientific paper or official study of some kind. I will have to redo my searches to get you citeable references. – jrista Aug 10 '10 at 17:34
The widely accepted view is that they are not. However, see this description of empirical tests (from 2004) which seems to establish that the digital sensors tested were UV sensitive, albeit much less so than is film.
share|improve this answer
This "accepted" view is generally only because most of the published specifications only provide sensor light absorption and sensitivity information from about 400nm through 750nm, the visible light range. Most of this information indicates that the blue photosites on a sensor peak at around 380-400nm, but do not show where they begin. Independent third-party studies show that the UV sensitivity of digital CCD and CMOS sensors starts much higher, from 250nm down to as low as 200nm. – jrista Aug 9 '10 at 18:30
Yes, they are as pointed out. But I want to add that sensors in digital cameras are not actually digital.
The Image sensor converts light into an electronic signal. Just because it's electronic, doesn't mean it has to be digital. There are analog signals and digital signals. both of which are electronic.
After this it goes through an analog-to-digital converter. Well, it actually goes through an amplifier before this but anyhow. This is where it then becomes digital and can be processed, compressed and all what ever else it's been programmed to do.
Just thought I'd put that out there.

New report uses same old debunked arguments about immigrants and the economy
A report issued this month by the far-right anti-immigrant organization called FAIR promotes dangerous economic myths about undocumented workers. Far from a drain on resources, studies show that immigrants make substantial economic contributions to North Carolina.
An excerpt from the Justice Center news release (PDF) responding to this study:
"The report, released this month by the far-right Federation for American Immigration Reform, argues that North Carolina spends too much on education, health care and other social services for undocumented workers. But examining only expenditures without economic contributions is unfair, budget analysts say.
"The focus on fiscal or budgetary impacts ignores economic realities – it considers costs without contributions," said John Quinterno, research associate with the NC Justice Center's Budget & Tax Center. "If we applied this standard to other groups, it would look like no group in North Carolina makes a positive economic contribution.""

Bible Question:
Is God the only One who can truly heal? Today, healings are reported in occult religions. The Bible teaches that Christ healed as compelling evidence that He was the Messiah. Some say Satan cannot perform supernatural works but only super normal ones and can only work through the natural process of healing. Some say Satan can only remove a sickness that he put upon them, and then let the body recover naturally. Can Satan make people sick and heal people too?
Bible Answer:
Can Satan heal? A search of the Bible reveals that healing is referred to over 150 times in the Bible, depending upon the translation. However, there are no statements in the Bible that say Satan or demons have healed or can heal. Yet, one question that we must ask is, "Are there any examples in Scriptures that suggest or reveal Satan can heal?" Another question is, "Are there any comments by Christ that reveal Satan can heal or cannot heal?" What follows will answer these questions.
Can Satan Heal
Can Satan Heal?
We will examine two important examples and one teaching from Christ that will help us learn if Satan can heal. The first example is that of the Egyptian magicians who copied the plagues of Aaron. The second example is the statement that the antichrist's fatal wound was healed. The teaching from Jesus is found in Matthew 12:25-29.
Egyptian Magicians Duplicated Plagues
The first example is found in the book of Exodus when Moses stood before Pharaoh and performed signs and wonders were performed. The sign that was performed occurred when Aaron cast his staff to the ground and it became a snake (Exodus 7:8-10). Then Pharaoh's wise men, sorcerers and magicians did the same with their "secret arts" (Exodus 7:11-13). Moses and Aaron next turned water into wine and so did the court magicians (Exodus 7:14-25). Then Moses and Aaron, as well as, the court magicians brought frogs upon the earth (Exodus 8:1-15). But after Moses and Aaron brought flies on the land, the court magicians could not (Exodus 8:16-19) and declared in verse 19,
This is the finger of God. Exodus 8:19 (NASB)
Then we are told the magicians could not duplicate Aaron's signs and wonders that caused cattle to die (Exodus 9:1-7), brought a plague of boils (Exodus 9:8-17), causing hail (Exodus 9:18-35), creating a plague of locust (Exodus 10:1-20; bring darkness on the land (Exodus 10:21-28), and causing the death of the first born (Exodus 11:1-3; 13:15-16).
It is important to notice that Egyptian court magicians could only duplicate the first three of the ten plagues. They could not heal the pharaoh's son and bring him back to life after he died. That is, the power of the court magicians was limited. They could not heal. This means Satan could not heal.
Antichrist's Fatal Wound That Was Healed
The second example is found in Revelation 13:3 where we are told that in the future the antichrist will have a "fatal wound" that will be healed.
I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast... Revelation 13:3 (NASB)
Then verses 11-14 state,
Since Satan will empower the antichrist (2 Thessalonians 2:8-10), some people have claimed that these verses reveal that Satan has the power to raise the dead, including raising the antichrist. They reason this reveals Satan can also heal. But this conclusion is wrong for two simple reasons. The first reason is found in verse 3 where we are told one of his heads "as if it had been slain." Notice that verse 1 tells us the antichrist has seven heads. Obviously, the antichrist will not have seven heads. The reference to heads is not about a man's head, but seven nations. Therefore, this is not about a healing. Second, notice the word "if" in verse 3 implies that the head was not actually cut off. The world will be deceived into believing a lie. Therefore, we conclude that Revelation 13:3, 11-14 does not describe a healing miracle. So, Satan did not perform a healing.
If Satan Casts Out Satan, He Is Divided
Now we will consider the teaching from Jesus in Matthew 12:26-28. In this passage we are told that when Jesus was speaking to the Pharisees He said,
Here Jesus revealed that Satan will not cast demons out of someone who is demon possessed. Why? If he did, he would be working against himself. Why would he command one of his demons to possess someone, and then perform an exorcism to remove the demon? There are two important points to notice. First, if Satan did exorcise one of his demons, then he has accomplished nothing. Second, if he did, then it would only be an act of deception. In both cases, Satan has not healed. It is all deception. That is, Satan cannot heal. But notice that Jesus' point is that Satan will perform a healing of casting out a demon. The truth is, Satan cannot heal illness or injury.
Only God Can Heal
The final section reveals that only God can and does heal. We will start with Matthew 4:23-24 which says,
Here we are reminded that Jesus healed and cast out demons. Even when the apostles healed people, they were not the ones who actually performed their healings. Peter reminded a man that Jesus Christ, our God, performed the healing.
Peter said to him, "Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you; get up and make your bed." Immediately he got up. Acts 9:34 (NASB)
At the end of the gospel of John, the apostle tells us that all the signs recorded in the gospel of John were done so that we will believe Jesus is the Son of God; that is, that Jesus was and is God.
It is clear from John 10:31-33, 36 that "Son of God" and "God" are interchangeable terms. That is, John recorded the signs so that people will believe that Jesus was and is God. The point is that healing is the exclusive power of God. In summary, the gospels teach that Jesus Christ could and did heal people and cast out demons.
This conclusion is supported by many Old Testament verses. One of them is Deuteronomy 32:39. In this passage, God is speaking.
See now that I, I am He,
And there is no god besides Me;
It is I who put to death and give life.
I have wounded and it is I who heal,
And there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
Deuteronomy 32:39
God says He puts to death and gives life. It is He who wounds and heals. That is, no one else other than God can heal. Job says,
For He inflicts pain, and gives relief;
He wounds, and His hands also heal.
Job 5:18 (NASB)
A familiar passage is,
Who pardons all your iniquities,
Who heals all your diseases;
Psalm 103:3 (NASB)
The last verse declares that God is our healer. No one else is our healer.
I, the LORD, am your healer. Exodus 15:26 (NASB)
No one else can heal. God and God alone can heal.
Can Satan fake a healing? Yes! He can only fake a healing because he cannot actually heal. Only our God can heal. The ability to heal was one of the proofs that Jesus Christ was and is our God.

Nullx is audio/video/subtitle transcoding server
C++ Python CMake
Nullx is a transcoding server which converts input audio/video files (with multiple tracks) into h264/aac/mov_text format and optionally uploads resulted files into elliptics storage.
Nullx spawns a pool of processes using ribosome::fpool each one transcodes media file using ffmpeg. If process crashes it will be automatically restarted.
Transcoding is asynchronous, server will reply to client after it is completed. If elliptics upload options are not specified in the request, server will send transcoded file to client in reply.
Server config options
tmp_dir - temporal directory where input and resulted files are stored during transcoding. transcoding_workers - number of transcoding processes, default value is 16.
Elliptics upload options
If request contains following headers, transcoded file will not be returned to client but instead will be written into elliptics.
X-Ell-Groups - groups in the format 1:2:3 where transcoded file should be written. X-Ell-ID - hex ID (128 bytes, if less, the rest will be filled with zeroes) of the key to upload. Alternatively you can specify X-Ell-Bucket and X-Ell-Key - bucket (namespace)/key pair of the key which will be used to upload transcoded file into elliptics.
Also you can specify additional metadata headers, which will force server to upload some metadata of the transcoded file into elliptics. X-Ell-Metadata-Groups - groups in the format 1:2:3 where metadata for transcoded file should be written. X-Ell-Metadata-ID or X-Ell-Metadata-Bucket + X-Ell-Metadata-Key - which key should be used to write transcoded file metadata.

Traditional Art Fairs
Fairs at the Ivan Honchar Museum have been held since 2004 to promote traditional Ukrainian art and folk artists, exchange creative experiences, and improve the quality of Ukrainian souvenirs.
Masters come from Kyiv and various regions of Ukraine including Kyiv, Chernihiv, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad, Lviv, Vinnytsia, Ternopil, Poltava, Ivano-Frankivsk, Rivne, Volyn, and Mykolaiv oblasti.
Both authentic masters who follow and reproduce traditional forms and those who interpret tradition with new forms and ideas take part.
The following crafts are presented: embroidery, weaving, carpet weaving, pottery, pysanky painting, spoon-making, candlestick-making, blacksmithing, straw, vine, and pine root weaving, and the manufacture of traditional musical instruments and children's toys. Masters revive ancient fabric decoration techniques such as woodblock printing on textiles, reproduce elements of traditional Ukrainian clothing and full folk attire, and make replicas of traditional jewelry.
Fairs are held on the eve of major religious and state holidays: Easter in April, Kyiv Day in May, Independence Day in August, and St. Nicholas Day in December.

See the [_URL_ archlinuxarm documentation].

+
=== Backup Cards ===
+
If you own an official card provided with your RPI ([_URL_ for example]) recommend before installing Arch ARM Linux to backup using {{ic|dd}}. The path must be specified to the device {{ic|/dev/sdX}} not for another partition {{ic|/dev/sdc1}}
+

+
# dd if=/dev/sdX of=$HOME/backup_RPi.img
+

{{Note | card may not be installed.}}
+
{{Warning | Bad parameters can damage your data.}}
+

+
=== Installation ===
+

+
Installation is similar to backing card. Download the image file from [_URL_ Arch Linux ARM]
+

+
# dd bs=1M if=/path/to/archlinux.img of=/dev/sdX
+

+
After inserting the card into the slot on the PPi should boot the base system Arch Linux ARM.
+

+
=== Home ===
+

+
The downloaded image file is approximately 2 gigabytes of which is /boot 94 megabytes and / 1.8 gigabytes. If you used a larger card to 2GB, so I recommend the rest of the card to connect as /home (or /usr). Clearance must be formatted using the example [[Gparted]]. At the first possible opportunity (after booting RPI or after mounting the card in the computer) need to be adjusted {{ic | /etc/fstab}}
+

+
# sudo vim /etc/fstab

You can select any file in Solution Explorer and then examine its properties in the Properties window. Visual Basic and Visual C# files have four properties: File Name, Build Action, Custom Tool, and Custom Tool Namespace.
NoteNote:
The Build Action, Custom Tool, and Custom Tool Namespace properties are provided for advanced scenarios. The default values are typically sufficient and do not have to be changed.
You can rename a file by clicking the File Name property in the Properties window and typing in the new name. Notice that if you change the file's name, Visual Studio will automatically rename any .vb or .resx files that are associated with it.
The Build Action property indicates what Visual Studio does with a file when a build is executed. Build Action can have one of several values:
 - None - The file is not included in the project output group and is not compiled in the build process. An example is a text file that contains documentation, such as a Readme file.
 - Compile - The file is compiled into the build output. This setting is used for code files.
 - Content - The file is not compiled, but is included in the Content output group. For example, this setting is the default value for an .htm or other kind of Web file.
 - Embedded Resource - This file is embedded in the main project build output as a DLL or executable. It is typically used for resource files.
 NoteNote:
 The Build Action property is extensible. As a result, you may see additional options listed for this property that have been added by other products and features.
The default value for Build Action depends on the extension of the file that you add to the solution. For example, if you add a Visual Basic project to Solution Explorer, the default value for Build Action is Compile. This is because the extension .vb indicates a code file that can be compiled. File names and extensions appear in Solution Explorer.
Note that the name of the file in your project will not be the identifier for the managed resource in the assembly manifest (see Assembly Manifest for more information). The identifier will be namespace.filename.extension, where namespace is the value of the DefaultNamespace property in a Visual C# project or RootNamespace property in a Visual Basic project. Filename and extension remain the same as their original designation. If the file is a .resx file, the project system will run resgen.exe on the file, creating a .resource file. The .resource file will be embedded in the assembly. Therefore, the assembly manifest will refer to the .resources file and not the .resx file.
For example, if you add the file MyFile.bmp to a project whose default namespace is MyProj, and set the build action to Embedded Resource, MyProj.MyFile.bmp will be the identifier in the assembly manifest. If you then add the file MyFile.resx to the project, the default build action will be Embedded Resource and MyProj.MyFile.resources will be the identifier in the assembly manifest.
Note that when the resource editor adds an image, it sets Build Action to None, because the .resx file references the image file. At build time, the image is pulled into the .resources file created out of the .resx file. The image can then easily be accessed by way of the strongly-typed class auto-generated for the .resx file. Therefore, you should not change this setting to Embedded Resource, because doing this would include the image two times in the assembly.
For more information about how to access resource files (compiled from .resx files) at run time, see ResourceManager Class. For more information about how to access all other embedded files and resources at run time, see Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream Method.
This property specifies the conditions under which the selected source file will be copied to the output directory. Select Do not copy if the file is never to be copied to the output directory. Select Copy always if the file is always to be copied to the output directory. Select Copy if newer if the file is to be copied only when it is newer than an existing file of the same name in the output directory.
NoteNote:
In smart device projects, the newness of a .dll or .exe file is determined by comparing the Win32 versions as follows:
If the device-side version is less than that of the desktop, the file is copied.
If the device-side version is greater than that of the desktop, the file is not copied.
If the versions are the same, a checksum comparison is made. If the checksums are the same, the file is not copied. If the checksums are different, the file is copied.
The newness of files other than .dll and .exe is based only on checksum.
NoteNote:
Data files will be copied to a subfolder named Data Files in the output directory.
Custom tools are components that can be used to transform files from one type to another at design time. For example, a custom tool might be a dataset code generator that reads in an XML Schema (.xsd) file and generates classes in a code file that programmatically exposes its tables and columns. There is a predefined list of custom tools available in the product; this property enables you to see which custom tool is applied to a file. In rare circumstances, you might have to change the value of this property. The value of this property must be either blank or one of the built-in custom tools.
To set or change the custom tool, click the Custom Tool property in the Properties window and type the name of a custom tool.
If you have a custom tool assigned to your project, the Custom Tool Namespace property enables you to specify the namespace you want to assign to code generated by the custom tool. When you specify a value for the Custom Tool Namespace property, code generated by the tool is put in the specified namespace. If the property is empty, generated code is put in the default namespace for the folder in which the converted file is located. For Visual Basic, this is the project's root namespace, and for Visual C# this corresponds to the setting of the DefaultNamespace property for the folder.

How to determine whether you should build a niche site or an authority site?
Affiliate marketing websites can broadly be placed into two categories: niche sites and authority sites.
Although there is a lot of overlap between these two types of websites, each type of site has its own advantages and disadvantages when it comes to their building and monetization.
Today we are going to learn:
 - What the differences are between a niche site and an authority site
 - How to determine whether to build out a niche site or an authority site
 - Different approaches that need to be taken when building a niche site vs an authority site
 - The differences in business models between niche site and authority site ownership
A. What are the differences between a niche site and an authority site?
The first thing to say before we go through the differences between these two types of sites is that there is a lot of overlap between them.
Both niche and authority sites are websites that are focused on a specific industry. An example of this is a site dedicated to running.
Both types of sites are monetized through affiliate marketing. Third-party products related to the site's industry are sold through the website.
To use the example of a running site again, these can be monetized through affiliate sales of running shoes, fitness trackers, and health supplements.
The key differences between niche and authority sites are in their size, content strategy, and their intent.
1. The difference in size between niche and authority sites
Niche sites are smaller than authority sites.
It is possible to create a profitable niche site with as few as 10-20 pages.
A small site like this will usually be focussed around a sub-niche, which is a specific portion or angle of a broader industry.
So, if you were to create a niche site in the running industry, you might choose to focus specifically on forest trail running, or treadmill running.
Example of a niche site in the walking industry monetised through treadmill affiliate sales.
This way you can exhaustively cover a topic in 30 posts or less.
The downside of this is that you are often restricting yourself to selling one to two products in order to not spread your content too thin.
Authority sites tend to be a lot bigger, generally with over 100 posts, and with new content being added during the lifetime of the site.
This can allow you to cover a whole industry, or at least a wider portion of an industry, and sell a wide range of products through your site.
Authority sites often grow out of successful niche sites.
When a marketer starts getting traction in a particular industry, they can double-down on creating content for that site, broadening out that content into other areas in their industry.
This does not have to be the case however, as sometimes it is not worth scaling a successful niche site past a certain point – we will talk more about how to determine whether this is the case a bit later.
2. The difference in content strategy between niche and authority sites
Niche sites and authority sites differ not only in the amount of content, but also in the type of content and keywords you target.
For niche sites, the vast majority of your articles will be written with the intent of trying to rank for high commercial value keywords. Examples of these are product reviews and comparison pages.
Authority sites, on the other hand, will have a large bank of purely informational articles that aim to answer common questions within an industry.
These informational posts may internally link to commercial pages (in fact it's good practice to do so) but the primary aim of these pages is not to sell a product but rather to engage and build trust with people interested in your wider industry.
To illustrate this, let's compare the keywords ranked for between a niche site and authority site in the same industry (camping in this instance)
Authority site keywords:
Authority site keywords
Niche site keywords:
Niche site keywords
As we can see, the authority site ranks for the keywords: "campfire baked potatoes" and "how to use a charcoal chimney"
These are not keywords that one generally types in when they are looking to buy a product.
They will however bring in traffic that may be interested in the products you are selling at a later time.
The example niche site ranks for terms like "best survival axe" and "best handled ham radio for survival". These are higher buyer intent keywords and traffic will be driven to product pages.
Authority sites will also rank for these higher commercial intent keywords, but the focus will be on driving traffic to both product and informational pages.
Their content strategy will therefore revolve around creating a holistic resource for anyone interested in the website's industry.
Niche sites will focus almost exclusively on driving traffic to commercial pages, so a content strategy will focus on writing about a much narrower topic, driven by the products that they are looking to sell.
3. The difference in intent between niche and authority sites
As we are beginning to see, niche sites and authority sites have a whole different philosophy behind them.
Niche sites are looking to make one time sales, intercepting traffic just at the point where it is ready to make a purchase with top-of-funnel content.
Marketing Funnel
Authority sites have content for all stages of the marketing funnel, whereas niche sites only have content for the evaluation and purchase stage. Image credit:
Authority sites are looking to create content and drive traffic at every stage of the marketing funnel.
Authority sites try to build a brand, following and community through their content with the hope that their followers will turn into repeat customers.
As well as creating content for every stage of a buyer's journey, authority sites are often monetized with items of various prices to take advantage of followers who are at different stages of familiarity with the site's brand.
When you have a dedicated following you are in a strong position to sell your own products such as courses and consulting.
These tend to be more profitable than just selling affiliate products.
B. How to determine whether to build a niche site or an authority site
As authority sites aim for a higher level of audience engagement than niche sites, they take a lot more work to develop and do not become completely passive even when hitting maturity.
Niche sites on the other hand can be built in a (relatively) set-and-forget manner. Once you are ranking for a few high-commercial keywords you can make money from your site without creating any new content.
The only work involved happens when you either want to grow your site, or you have lost visibility to competitors.
With the additional work that goes into authority sites comes a much higher scope for income.
The biggest questions you should therefore ask yourself when choosing whether to build an authority or niche site is what the scope for profitability is in that industry, and how much time you want to invest in your site.
Let's break these down into sub-questions to better help you make this decision.
1. Determining the potential profitability in your industry
a. How much interest is there in your industry?
The potential profitability of your website will always be constrained by the demand for information and products in its industry.
Dominating the entirety of a small market may not turn out to be as profitable as doing well in a small part of a larger market.
This means that for some very small industries it does not make sense to build an authority site.
You can determine the level of interest in a specific industry by looking at keyword volumes for the keywords in that industry, as well as the social followings for the big influencers in that industry.
b. How monetizable is that industry?
As well as search volume, you should always think about how easy it will be to make money from your website.
The effort that it takes to build an authority site can only be justified if you have better options for monetization than low ticket affiliate products and ad revenue.
The key question to ask yourself is: how willing are people to spend money in your chosen industry?
Profitable industries tend to have the following characteristics:
 - The products and services in that industry are expensive (over a few hundred dollars)
 - It's an industry where people can make money (marketing for example)
 - It's an industry with a large passionate following
What you ultimately want to ascertain is whether you will make more money doubling down in your current industry, or diversifying into new ones.
c. How many "splinter industries" does your website have?
If your website becomes authoritative enough, it can start dominating the market not only in its initial industry, but also in adjacent industries.
An example of this would be a website that was initially about camping branching out and becoming an authority about hiking and mountain biking.
If your chosen industry has a lot of potentially profitable splinter industries then this increases the chances of building an authority site being worth your time and effort.
2. Determining how much time you want to invest in your site
a. How interested are you in your industry?
With an authority site, your audience will be composed of people who are very familiar with your industry.
To create content that engages these people, you need to have authentic industry expertise.
To do this without having a genuine interest in your chosen industry is either very difficult or very expensive (you will need to hire expert level writers).
If you have no real interest in your website's industry, it is probably worth sticking with a niche site.
b. How passive do you want your income to be?
Unless you are fortunate enough to find a lucrative market with little competition, running an authority site is not a passive business.
Your audience will need a constant stream of content to stay engaged, and there are usually several sites battling it out to be the go-to in the industry.
You cannot compete with a passive approach.
A more passive business model is to create a larger portfolio of smaller niche sites.
Each site will be less profitable with this model, however.
C. How


set of space-separated tokens is a string containing zero or more words separated by one or more space characters, where words consist of any string of one or more characters, none of which are space characters.
A string containing a set of space-separated tokens may have leading or trailing space characters.
An unordered set of unique space-separated tokens is a set of space-separated tokens where none of the words are duplicated.
An ordered set of unique space-separated tokens is a set of space-separated tokens where none of the words are duplicated but where the order of the tokens is meaningful.
Sets of space-separated tokens sometimes have a defined set of allowed values. When a set of allowed values is defined, the tokens must all be from that list of allowed values; other values are non-conforming. If no such set of allowed values is provided, then all values are conforming.
2.4.7 Comma-separated tokens
Status: Last call for comments
A set of comma-separated tokens is a string containing zero or more tokens each separated from the next by a single U+002C COMMA character (,), where tokens consist of any string of zero or more characters, neither beginning nor ending with space characters, nor containing any U+002C COMMA characters (,), and optionally surrounded by space characters.
For instance, the string "Â aÂ ,b,,dÂ dÂ " consists of four tokens: "a", "b", the empty string, and "dÂ d". Leading and trailing whitespace around each token doesn't count as part of the token, and the empty string can be a token.
Sets of comma-separated tokens sometimes have further restrictions on what consists a valid token. When such restrictions are defined, the tokens must all fit within those restrictions; other values are non-conforming. If no such restrictions are specified, then all values are conforming.
2.4.8 References
Status: Last call for comments
A valid hash-name reference to an element of type type is a string consisting of a U+0023 NUMBER SIGN character (#) followed by a string which exactly matches the value of the name attribute of an element with type type in the document.
2.4.9 Media queries
Status: Last call for comments
A string is a valid media query if it matches the media_query_list production of the Media Queries specification. [MQ]
A string matches the environment of the user if it is the empty string, a string consisting of only space characters, or is a media query that matches the user's environment according to the definitions given in the Media Queries specification. [MQ]
2.5 URLs
Status: Last call for comments. ISSUE-56 (urls-webarch) blocks progress to Last Call
2.5.1 Terminology
Status: Last call for comments
A URL is a string used to identify a resource.
A URL is a valid URL if at least one of the following conditions holds:
A string is a valid non-empty URL if it is a valid URL but it is not the empty string.
A string is a valid URL potentially surrounded by spaces if, after stripping leading and trailing whitespace from it, it is a valid URL.
A string is a valid non-empty URL potentially surrounded by spaces if, after stripping leading and trailing whitespace from it, it is a valid non-empty URL.
A URL is an absolute URL if resolving it results in the same output regardless of what it is resolved relative to, and that output is not a failure.
An absolute URL is a hierarchical URL if, when resolved and then parsed, there is a character immediately after the <scheme> component and it is a U+002F SOLIDUS character (/).
An absolute URL is an authority-based URL if, when resolved and then parsed, there are two characters immediately after the <scheme> component and they are both U+002F SOLIDUS characters (//).
This specification defines the URL about:legacy-compat as a reserved, though unresolvable, about: URI, for use in DOCTYPEs in HTML documents when needed for compatibility with XML tools. [ABOUT]
This specification defines the URL about:srcdoc as a reserved, though unresolvable, about: URI, that is used as the document's address of iframe srcdoc documents. [ABOUT]
The term "URL" in this specification is used in a manner distinct from the precise technical meaning it is given in RFC 3986. Readers familiar with that RFC will find it easier to read this specification if they pretend the term "URL" as used herein is really called something else altogether. This is a willful violation of RFC 3986. [RFC3986]
2.5.2 Interfaces for URL manipulation
Status: Last call for comments
An interface that has a complement of URL decomposition IDL attributes will have seven attributes with the following definitions:
 attribute DOMString protocol;
 attribute DOMString host;
 attribute DOMString hostname;
 attribute DOMString port;
 attribute DOMString pathname;
 attribute DOMString search;
 attribute DOMString hash;
o . protocol [ = value ]
Returns the current scheme of the underlying URL.
Can be set, to change the underlying URL's scheme.
o . host [ = value ]
Returns the current host and port (if it's not the default port) in the underlying URL.
Can be set, to change the underlying URL's host and port.
The host and the port are separated by a colon. The port part, if omitted, will be assumed to be the current scheme's default port.
o . hostname [ = value ]
Returns the current host in the underlying URL.
Can be set, to change the underlying URL's host.
o . port [ = value ]
Returns the current port in the underlying URL.
Can be set, to change the underlying URL's port.
o . pathname [ = value ]
Returns the current path in the underlying URL.
Can be set, to change the underlying URL's path.
o . search [ = value ]
Returns the current query component in the underlying URL.
Can be set, to change the underlying URL's query component.
o . hash [ = value ]
Returns the current fragment identifier in the underlying URL.
Can be set, to change the underlying URL's fragment identifier.
The table below demonstrates how the getter for search results in different results depending on the exact original syntax of the URL:
Input URL search value Explanation
_URL_ empty string No <query> component in input URL.
_URL_ ? There is a <query> component, but it is empty.
_URL_ ?test The <query> component has the value "test".
_URL_ ?test The (empty) <fragment> component is not part of the <query> component.
2.6 Common DOM interfaces

2.6.1 Reflecting content attributes in IDL attributes
Status: Last call for comments
Some IDL attributes are defined to reflect a particular content attribute. This means that on getting, the IDL attribute returns the current value of the content attribute, and on setting, the IDL attribute changes the value of the content attribute to the given value.
2.6.2 Collections
Status: Last call for comments
The HTMLCollection, HTMLAllCollection, HTMLFormControlsCollection, HTMLOptionsCollection, and HTMLPropertiesCollection interfaces represent various lists of DOM nodes. Collectively, objects implementing these interfaces are called collections.
When a collection is created, a filter and a root are associated with the collection.
For example, when the HTMLCollection object for the document.images attribute is created, it is associated with a filter that selects only img elements, and rooted at the root of the document.
The collection then represents a live view of the subtree rooted at the collection's root, containing only nodes that match the given filter. The view is linear.
2.6.2.1 HTMLCollection
Status: Last call for comments
The HTMLCollection interface represents a generic collection of elements.
interface HTMLCollection {
 readonly attribute unsigned long length;
 caller getter object item(in unsigned long index); // only returns Element
 caller getter object namedItem(in DOMString name); // only returns Element
};
collection . length
Returns the number of elements in the collection.
element = collection . item(index)
collection[index]
collection(index)
Returns the item with index index from the collection. The items are sorted in tree order.
Returns null if index is out of range.
element = collection . namedItem(name)
collection[name]
collection(name)
Returns the first item with ID or name name from the collection.
Returns null if no element with that ID or name could be found.
Only a, applet, area, embed, form, frame, frameset, iframe, img, and object elements can have a name for the purpose of this method; their name is given by the value of their name attribute.
2.6.2.2 HTMLAllCollection
Status: Last call for comments
The HTMLAllCollection interface represents a generic collection of elements just like HTMLCollection, with the exception that its namedItem() method


Unmasking the Stinky Pinky Mystery
Date:
Share post:
Introduction
The Stinky Pinky Mystery is a phenomenon that has puzzled scientists, researchers, and the general public for years. What exactly causes this foul odor in certain individuals' fingers, often described as reminiscent of rotten eggs or garlic? In this article, we will delve into the science behind this peculiar occurrence, exploring potential causes, prevention methods, and treatment options for those affected by the Stinky Pinky.
Understanding the Stinky Pinky Phenomenon
What is Stinky Pinky?
Stinky Pinky is a term used to describe the unpleasant smell that can sometimes emanate from an individual's fingers. This odor is often likened to sulfur compounds, which are notorious for their pungent and offensive scent. The source of this smell can vary from person to person, but it is commonly associated with factors such as sweat, bacteria, and diet.
Causes of Stinky Pinky
 1. Sweat: Excessive sweating, particularly in the hands, can create a moist environment that is conducive to bacterial growth. When bacteria break down the sweat, they release volatile compounds, leading to the characteristic foul odor associated with Stinky Pinky.
 2. Bacteria: The natural bacterial flora present on the skin can also contribute to the development of a malodor. Certain bacteria species, such as Corynebacterium and Staphylococcus, are known for producing sulfur compounds that give rise to unpleasant smells.
 3. Diet: Foods containing sulfur compounds, such as garlic and onions, can be metabolized by the body and excreted through the skin, leading to malodorous sweat. Additionally, spicy foods can stimulate sweat production, exacerbating the issue.
Prevention and Management Strategies
Maintaining Good Hygiene
One of the most effective ways to prevent or mitigate Stinky Pinky is to practice good hygiene. This includes regular hand washing with antibacterial soap to remove bacteria and odor-causing compounds.
Use of Antiperspirants
Applying antiperspirants to the hands can help reduce sweating, thereby creating a less conducive environment for bacterial growth and odor development.
Wearing Breathable Fabrics
Choosing breathable fabrics for gloves or mittens can help reduce sweat and promote ventilation, which can in turn minimize the risk of developing Stinky Pinky.
Dietary Adjustments
Avoiding or limiting the consumption of sulfur-rich foods like garlic, onions, and spicy dishes can help alleviate the issue of sulfuric odors in sweat.
Consulting a Healthcare Professional
If Stinky Pinky persists despite these measures, it may be beneficial to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and potential treatment options. Prescription-strength antiperspirants, medication, or medical procedures may be recommended in severe cases.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Is Stinky Pinky a common problem?
Stinky Pinky is not as common as other odor-related issues, but it can affect individuals who are prone to sweating or have specific dietary habits.
2. Can Stinky Pinky be a sign of an underlying health condition?
In most cases, Stinky Pinky is benign and not indicative of a serious health problem. However, persistent or severe cases may warrant medical evaluation to rule out any underlying conditions.
3. Are there home remedies for treating Stinky Pinky?
Home remedies such as soaking the hands in a baking soda solution, applying lemon juice, or using apple cider vinegar may help neutralize odor temporarily. However, these remedies may not address the underlying causes of the issue.
4. Does stress contribute to Stinky Pinky?
Stress can trigger sweating in some individuals, which may exacerbate Stinky Pinky. Relaxation techniques and stress management strategies may help reduce this effect.
5. Can Stinky Pinky be genetic?
While genetics can play a role in an individual's sweating patterns, there is limited evidence to suggest that Stinky Pinky is directly inherited. Environmental and personal factors are more likely to influence this phenomenon.
6. Is Stinky Pinky more common in certain age groups?
Stinky Pinky can occur in individuals of all age groups, but it may be more prevalent in those who are more physically active or undergoing hormonal changes such as puberty or menopause.
7. Can medications cause Stinky Pinky?
Certain medications, such as those that induce increased sweating or alter sweat composition, may contribute to the development of Stinky Pinky as a side effect. Consulting a healthcare provider can help address this issue.
8. Does Stinky Pinky go away on its own?
In many cases, Stinky Pinky may resolve on its own, especially with improved hygiene practices or lifestyle changes. Persistent or severe cases may require further intervention.
9. Can Stinky Pinky affect other parts of the body?
While Stinky Pinky is most commonly associated with the hands, it can potentially impact other areas of the body that are prone to sweating, such as the feet or underarms.
10. Are there support groups or communities for individuals with Stinky Pinky?
While there may not be specific support groups solely dedicated to Stinky Pinky, online forums and communities focused on hyperhidrosis or body odor may offer valuable insights and shared experiences for individuals dealing with similar concerns.
Conclusion
The Stinky Pinky Mystery may continue to baffle us, but with a better understanding of the causes and management strategies for this condition, individuals can take proactive steps to address this embarrassing issue. By implementing hygiene practices, making dietary adjustments, and seeking professional guidance when needed, individuals can effectively combat the unpleasant odor associated with Stinky Pinky, ultimately regaining confidence and comfort in their daily lives.

text: This paper proposes an innovative contactless hand geometry recognition system. We present a novel hand tracking approach to automatically detect and capture the geometrical features of the hand from low resolution video stream. No constraint is imposed and the subject can place his/her hand naturally on top of the sensor without touching any device. Conventional hand geometry systems require fairly precise positioning of the hand in order to obtain accurate measures of the hand. However, the proposed contactless approach does not fix any guidance pegs to help placing the hand at the right position when the image is acquired. As a result, the hand image may appear larger when the hand is placed near the sensor, and vice versa. Besides, the hand can be positioned at different angles. In other words, there is no way to obtain standard and constant hand measurements from this contactless setting. This research aims to deal with this complication when we have to get accurate measurements of the hand from images with varying sizes and directed at different orientations. Experiments show that our proposed method offers promising result for hand geometry recognition in a real-time contactless environment.

Transcendental Modernism
Drawn primarily from deCordova's permanent collection, Transcendental Modernism connects to the nearby exhibition Visionary New England, while focusing on artistic developments in Massachusetts from the 1940s through the 1990s. Veering away from dominant narratives of modern art as abstract, secular, and self-referential, Transcendental Modernism advances an understanding of vanguard art in Massachusetts based on intersectional social progress and interdisciplinary artistic pursuits. The exhibition examines the spiritual commitments of Boston Expressionists, the presence of Afrofuturism in Boston, and utopian collaborations between artists and scientists.
The exhibition was organized by Sam Adams, Curatorial Fellow.

Tie Dye techniques have been used for centuries in the western part of Africa and the patterns and vibrant designs of the clothes have caught the eyes of many all over the world. It is an easy and effective way to introduce pupils into the art of African clothing design. Children are allowed to be creative as they want in designing their patterns to be created on fabrics with dyes.
Our aim is to familiarise the pupils with the use of African tie-dye and dye-making and to give a brief background into its origins. Using simple techniques will support the pupils into assimilating what they have learnt so they can pass on and use the knowledge to create tie-dye clothing in their own time.
Pupils involved will greatly enjoy seeing their creations come to life through the use of fabric which will give them something they can treasure and wear in the future.

assertHint(R.id.edittext, "Hint");
Check TextInputLayout and EditText's errors
assertErrorDisplayed(R.id.edittext, R.string.error);
assertErrorDisplayed(R.id.edittext, "Error message");
assertNoErrorDisplayed(R.id.edittext, R.string.error);
assertNoErrorDisplayed(R.id.edittext, "Error message");
Check TextInputLayout's assistive helper text
assertAssistiveText(R.id.textinputlayout, R.string.helper_text);
assertAssistiveText(R.id.textinputlayout, "Helper text");
Check if text on screen contains given text
assertContains("text");
assertContains(R.string.text);
assertContains(R.id.textview, "text");
assertContains(R.id.textview, R.string.text);
// ...or not?
assertNotContains("text");
assertNotContains(R.string.text);
assertNotContains(R.id.textview, "text");
assertNotContains(R.id.textview, R.string.text);
Check text is given color
assertTextColorIs(R.id.some_red_text, R.color.red);
assertTextColorIs(R.id.some_color_list_text, R.color.state_list);
// ...or not?
assertTextColorIsNot(R.id.some_red_text, R.color.blue);
assertTextColorIsNot(R.id.some_color_list_text, R.color.another_state_list);
assertTextColorIs and its variant assertTextColorIsNot work with:
 - Color int: Color.parse("#ff00ff")
 - Color resource: R.color.green
 - Color attribute: R.attr.colorPrimary
Also Barista can check colors parsed from declarable-style custom attribute:
assertTextColorIs(R.id.customTextView, R.styleable.SampleCustomView, R.style.SampleCustomStyle, R.styleable.SampleCustomView_customColor);
// ...or not?
assertTextColorIsNot(R.id.customTextView, R.styleable.SampleCustomView, R.style.SampleCustomStyle_Green, R.styleable.SampleCustomView_customColor);
Check recyclerView item count against expected item count
assertRecyclerViewItemCount(R.id.recycler, 10);
Is this ProgressBar/SeekBar progress?
assertProgress(R.id.seek_bar, 5)
assertProgressIsMin(R.id.seek_bar)
assertProgressIsMax(R.id.seek_bar)
And another tricky feature
assertThatBackButtonClosesTheApp();
Custom assertions
If you have a special case not covered by the given assertions API, we encourage you to assert these special cases with our custom assertions API. It's a convenient way to replace plain Matchers with complex assertions. With Barista, you can match any kind of view by knowing its type and passing its viewId, text, or a Matcher<View>. Once you matched it, you will be able to assert all its properties without adding any complex Matcher to your project.
// Matching a Button by text
assertAny<Button>("Save") {
 it.enabled == true
}
// Matching a RadioGroup by id
assertAny<RadioGroup>(R.id.radioGroup) {
 it.checkedRadioButtonId == R.id.option1
}
// Matching a Progressbar by a Matcher
assertAny<Progressbar>(withId(R.id.progressBar)) {
 it.progress == 42
}
// You can also define the assertion description that will be shown if the assertion fails
assertAny<RadioGroup>(R.id.radioGroup, "selected option is the second one") {
 it.checkedRadioButtonId == R.id.option1
}
Mocking the Intent results
Mocking the Android Camera Intent is a tricky thing to do. To accomplish it in no time, Barista gives a way to do it in one line: the method mockAndroidCamera(). This method does all the magic to mock the result of the camera. One more thing to do: you have to call Intents.init() before calling mockAndroidCamera(), and Intents.release() after doing the action that launches the camera. You could also use IntentsTestRule instead of the common ActivityTestRule to skip it, but as we recommend the use of BaristaRule, it's easier to just call both methods manually when needed.
Here's an example to copy paste:
try {
 Intents.init();
 BaristaIntents.mockAndroidCamera();
 clickOn(R.id.launch_camera);
} finally {
 Intents.release();
}
Runtime Permissions
The new Marshmallow permissions system requires checking for permissions at runtime. As Espresso can't interact with the system dialog, Barista offers a way to allow permissions when needed.
PermissionGranter.allowPermissionsIfNeeded(Manifest.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS);
PermissionGranter.allowPermissionOneTime(Manifest.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS);
Useful test rules
Barista includes a set of useful test rules to help you:
Resetting app data
As tests should be isolated, they need to set the environment before running. Espresso doesn't help achieving it but Barista offers a set of rules to clear the app's data before running each test.
// Clear all app's SharedPreferences
@Rule public ClearPreferencesRule clearPreferencesRule = new ClearPreferencesRule();
// Delete all tables from all the app's SQLite Databases
@Rule public ClearDatabaseRule clearDatabaseRule = new ClearDatabaseRule();
// Delete all files in getFilesDir() and getCacheDir()
@Rule public ClearFilesRule clearFilesRule = new ClearFilesRule();
Dealing with Flaky tests
We should try to write deterministic tests, but when everything else fails Barista helps you deal with flaky tests using a specific ActivityTestRule and a couple of annotations that repeat your tests multiple times.
// Use a RuleChain to wrap your ActivityTestRule with a FlakyTestRule
private ActivityTestRule<FlakyActivity> activityRule = new ActivityTestRule<>(FlakyActivity.class);
private FlakyTestRule flakyRule = new FlakyTestRule();
@Rule
public RuleChain chain = RuleChain.outerRule(flakyRule)
 .around(activityRule);
// Use @AllowFlaky to let flaky tests pass if they pass any time.
@Test
@AllowFlaky(attempts = 5)
public void some_flaky_test() throws Exception {
 // ...
}
// Use @Repeat to avoid flaky tests from passing if any repetition fails.
@Test
@Repeat(times = 5)
public void some_important_test() throws Exception {
 // ...
}
One rule to rule them all
All previous rules can be added at the same time by just adding the BaristaRule.
@Rule
public BaristaRule<MyActivity> baristaRule = BaristaRule.create(MyActivity.class);
//...
baristaRule.launchActivity();
The rule assumes some sane defaults:
 - Retry flaky tests: 10 attempts
 - Launch activity automatically: false
 - Initial touch mode enabled: true
 - Clear preferences
 - Clear databases
 - Clear files

Last month Hurricane Irma made landfall in Florida, leaving a wake of devastation in its path. An estimated $2.5 billion in damage was done to production agriculture across the Sunshine State. Dairy producers were not hit as hard as other sectors, but losses are still expected to total near $12 million according to officials with the Florida Department of Agriculture.
"Florida agriculture took it on the chin as Hurricane Irma pummeled the state, and the $2.5 billion in agricultural damages is only an initial assessment," says Adam H. Putnam, Florida commissioner of agriculture.
A report released by the Florida Department of Agriculture with data from USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service assessed damage in all of Florida's 67 counties.
Irma forced milk processing plants to shutdown prior, during and after the storm. Southeast Milk Inc., a milk cooperative in with members across Florida, lost an estimated $1,951,695 from milk dumping and milk being sold at lower prices in other markets.
Electricity went down for several days at dairies making cooling animals with fans difficult, leading to heat stress and lower milk production. It is estimated Florida dairy farms will lose $7.5 million in revenue during the next four months because of the health setbacks cattle suffered.
An estimated 40 dairies incurred significant damage from Irma to barns, equipment, fences and other structures. No official number is released, but estimates include:
- $4,000 per farm in debris cleanup and rebuilding fences: $160,000.
- $50,000 per farm in damage to barns, sheds, milk parlors, and other infrastructure: $2,000,000.
- $5,000 per farm in equipment damage: $200,000.
"We're likely to see even greater economic losses as we account for loss of future production and the cost to rebuild infrastructure," Putnam says.
Total losses, including crop losses, to dairy producers in the state are estimated to be $11,811,695.
Losses for other agriculture industry sectors include:
- Citrus: $760,816,600
- Beef Cattle: $237,476,562
- Aquaculture: $36,850,000
- Fruits and Vegetables (Excludes Citrus): $180,193,096
- Greenhouse, Nursery, and Floriculture: $624,819,895
- Sugar: $382,603,397
- Field Crops: $62,747,058
- Forestry $261,280,000
The report states Florida has more than 100 dairies milking 125,000 total cows. Annually milk sales are more than $500 million in Florida.

This crystal grows on its black substrate from a pentagonal seed by reflecting it across its 5 vertices and rescaling the new pentagons by a factor of 0.61803..., the "golden mean," back towards the point of reflection, and repeating this for all the new pentagons, ad infinitum. Each seed can have its own rule to determine its color and the colors of its descendants. The growth of a single seed has finite area but infinite detail (possessing a fractal dimension of 2). This crystal is strange because crystals in nature do not possess 5-fold symmetry on any large scale, while this one can fill the entire plane very nicely with appropriately placed seeds. In understanding this shape, the arithmetic of the integers extended by the fifth roots of unity proves very helpful.

Friendship reaches across the ocean
Read and comment on this story from the Register-Guardian on the friendship developed over 20 years between Timothy Meinzen of Eugene, OR and Bai Edward Fornah of Sierra Leone (shown above 20 years ago and below this year) at:
Friendship reaches across the ocean*
Friendship reaches across the ocean
By REBECCA NOLAN The Register-Guard
The story of Bai Edward Fornah's journey from war-torn Sierra Leone to a secluded Eugene cul-de-sac is a story of survival, courage, unrelenting optimism and the goodness and generosity of the human heart.
It is also a story about a friendship, a bond 20 years in the making, between Fornah and a one-time Peace Corps volunteer turned high school teacher, Timothy Meinzen of Eugene, who answered an old friend's call for help from half a world away.
Fornah, 31, survived being abandoned by his parents, drug and alcohol addiction and a brush with death when rebels swept through his village, raping, killing and maiming its occupants.
But it took an act of kindness from Meinzen and members of Eugene's Our Redeemer Lutheran Church to help him escape the violent African nation, travel to America and eventually win the chance to study at Eugene Bible College.
The beginning
In 1983, at the age of 22, Tim Meinzen moved into an 8-by-10-foot room on the back porch of a house in Gerihun, in southern Sierra Leone. A recent college grad from Illinois, he and 30 other Peace Corps volunteers were undergoing six weeks of language training before they were released out into the country.
The village children were attracted to the strangers, and Meinzen noticed one boy in particular, a small boy, about 12 or 13 years old, who went by the nickname Edison Dee. It was Edward Fornah. The pair became fast friends.
"He exuded this boyish joy," said Meinzen. "And he had just a little bit of mischief in him."
When the time came for Meinzen to move to his permanent post in Kwellu Junction, he asked Fornah to come along as his translator and cultural guide. In exchange, Meinzen would pay his school fees.
"I was happy to go," said Fornah, whose mother had disappeared and whose father had left the children with their grandmother to seek work in the diamond mines.
"In Africa, people have dreams for their children, but they can't make them come true because of financial handicap," he said. A lucky few are "adopted" by wealthy relatives or friends who give them a push toward a better, more secure life.
When Meinzen and Fornah arrived at the five-room house where they would live for the next two years, two other boys joined them. They formed a family of sorts, sharing chores, meager meals of rice and sauce, and stories about life in their respective cultures.
During the day, Meinzen taught agricultural science and Bible class to students who had no books. As a Peace Corps volunteer, he helped build a school library and started a rabbitry to add protein to the local diet.
He considered the boys family, but Fornah was always his "No. 1 son" and younger brother.
The dark years
When Meinzen returned to the United States in 1985, he delivered Fornah back to his grandmother. The teen was devastated at the departure of his friend.
"That was the worst part of my life," he said. "I had nobody to love me or to care for me. I became involved in some bad games."
He started dancing at nightclubs, drinking and smoking marijuana.
He wrote to Meinzen often, but never spoke of his troubles or his dangerous lifestyle.
Then, in 1990, he had a revelation.
"Someone told me about Jesus," Fornah said. He converted from his native Islam to Christianity. "I wrote to Tim that I was saved."
Three years later, he enrolled in Bible college in the coastal city of Freetown, where his desire to serve others led him to wash the clothing of the pastors and professors. His earlier life of frivolity had left him penniless, so he slept in a classroom and wore the same shirt and trousers every day.
When government officials learned Fornah had not paid his school fees, he was forced out of the college. But the pastors and professors whose clothing he had washed lobbied the college board to waive his tuition. They agreed.
Three years later, he graduated and became a youth pastor and musician in Bo, an inland village where his sister lived with her family.
He helped counsel other young people trapped in a cycle of addiction and poverty.
A brutal war
Sandwiched between Guinea and Liberia on the West African coast, Sierra Leone is one of the world's poorest countries. Life is often brutal in a country, about the size of North Carolina, where 68 percent of the population lives below the poverty line and the average life expectancy is 45.6 years.
Civil war broke out in 1991 between the government and the rebel Revolutionary United Front, or RUF. In the ensuing years of violence, tens of thousands were killed, and fully one-third of the country's population fled to neighboring nations.
In the chaos, rebels roamed the country, abducting, raping and killing civilians. A favored technique of terror was to amputate the limbs of villagers with axes and machetes.
"They would ask if you want long sleeve or short sleeve," Fornah said, and the amputation would be at the wrist or above the elbow.
Fornah's father, who had abandoned the family for the diamond mines, was murdered by rebels who cut him limb by limb.
On Jan. 6, 1999, the rebels arrived in Bo. They forced their way into the home of Fornah's sister, where they terrorized the children and threatened to kill her husband. Four men raped Fornah's sister.
Fornah led the family into the bush, where they hid from the rebels for days. But Fornah's responsibilities as a pastor forced him to return the next day.
He scraped together some money in the hopes that, should the rebels return, he could buy his life.
They did return, but the money was not enough to appease the rebel leader. He ordered Fornah to stand and cocked a G3 automatic combat rifle at him. He told Fornah, "You're going to die."
"I was speechless," Fornah said. "I started praying."
But for unexplained reasons, the man did not shoot Fornah. He gestured at the other men and said, "Let's go."
Escape from hell
After two days of traveling by truck and by boat, seeing dead bodies everywhere, he arrived in Freetown and called Meinzen.
"I said, 'You have to get me out of this country, man,' " Fornah said. He needed $400 to get to Ghana, where he had family.
Meinzen, by then a husband, father and a teacher at Pleasant Hill High School, had been following the conflict in the news and on the Internet. With the help of his brother and his friend Pat Anderson, Meinzen wired the money to Sierra Leone.
Fornah traveled by sea and road to Ghana, somehow avoiding the armed bandits who roamed the countryside robbing travelers. When he arrived after three days, he immediately registered in a missionary training program.
He paid only a fraction of the fees upfront.
He called Meinzen again. This time, the congregation at Our Redeemer raised more than $500 to pay the tuition.
A year later, Fornah asked Meinzen to bring him to America.
At first, Meinzen was pessimistic about the chances, but Fornah knew it could happen. He was right.
The congregation came through once again, raising $1,000 through church activities. Another group, the Aid Association for Lutherans, matched the amount. Congregant Gayle Dorn volunteered to pay a year's tuition at Eugene Bible College.
Fornah, a single male with no marketable skills, managed to get a three-year student visa after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
He landed in Portland last Monday night. The journey was his first by plane.
"If I go to Bible college, I can do for myself," Fornah said. "If I don't go home with money, I want to bring something else. I can speak to the government if I am intellectually sound.
"My home is full of crooks. There is nobody who can stand and say, 'This is no good,' " he said.
On Easter Sunday, Bai Edward Fornah addressed the congregation at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church, thanking them for the "smiles and your welcome and your financial support."
"I am happy that I am here with you," he told the crowd. "You've done so much that you think you have not done."

Make the zero value useful. –Go Proverbs
Let's start with the Golang blog: The zero value
When memory is allocated to store a value, whether by declaration or by calling make or new, and no explicit initialization is provided, the memory is given a default initialization. Each element of this value is set to its type's zero value: false for booleans, 0 for integers, 0.0 for floats, "" for strings, and nil for pointers, functions, interfaces, slices, channels, and maps. This initialization is done recursively, so, for example, if no value is specified, each element of a structure array will be zeroed.
Setting a value to zero in this way provides a great guarantee for the safety and correctness of the program, and also ensures the readability and simplicity of the program. This is what Golang programmers call "Make the zero value useful".
Zero value cheat sheet
Type Zero Value
bool false
int 0
float 0.0
string ""
pointer nil
function nil
slice nil
map nil
channel nil
The initialization of zero values is recursive, so if no value is specified, each element of the structure array will be zeroed.

The same is true for structures. We initialize a B structure that references A, and if no value is specified, each field of B will be zeroed.

Usage of Zero Values
The previous section has introduced what zero values are, here we will see how to use them.
sync.Mutex
Here is an example of sync.Mutex, sync.Mutex is designed to be used directly through zero values without explicit initialization.

package main
import "sync"
type MyInt struct {
 mu sync.Mutex
 val int
}
func main() {
 var i MyInt
 // i.mu is usable without explicit initialisation.
 i.mu.Lock()
 i.val++
 i.mu.Unlock()
}
Thanks to the characteristics of zero values, the two unexported variables inside Mutex will be initialized to zero values. So the zero value of sync.Mutex is an unlocked Mutex.

// A Mutex is a mutual exclusion lock.
// The zero value for a Mutex is an unlocked mutex.
//
// A Mutex must not be copied after first use.
type Mutex struct {
 state int32
 sema uint32
}
bytes.Buffer
Another example is bytes.Buffer, its zero value is an empty Buffer.

package main
import "bytes"
import "io"
import "os"
func main() {
 var b bytes.Buffer
 b.Write([]byte("go go go"))
 io.Copy(os.Stdout, &b)
}
JSON omitempty
JSON receivers also accept the omitempty flag, when the input field is a zero value, the receiver will ignore this field.

 Name: "taoge",
 Age: 30,
 Addr: "",
}
gore> data, err := json.Marshal(p1)
...
gore> string(data)
"{\"name\":\"taoge\",\"age\":30}"
channel close
In Channel Axioms, there is also a rule related to zero values, when the channel is closed, the <- operation on the closed channel always returns zero value immediately.

func main() {
 c := make(chan int, 3)
 c <- 1
 c <- 2
 c <- 3
 close(c)
 for i := 0; i < 4; i++ {
 fmt.Printf("%d ", <-c) // prints 1 2 3 0
 }
}
The correct way to solve the above problem is to use a for loop:
1
2
3
4
for v := range c {
 // do something with v
}
Value not found for corresponding key in map
For a map, if the corresponding key is not found, the map will return a zero value of the corresponding type.

 gore --autoimport

gore> a := make(map[string]string)
map[string]string{}
gore> a["123"] = "456"
"456"
gore> a["000"]
""
The solution to this problem is to return multiple values:
1

gore --autoimport
gore version 0.5.3 :help for help
gore> a := make(map[string]string)
map[string]string{}
gore> c,ok := a["000"]
""
false
For non-existent keys, the value of ok will become false.
Summary
The above is some experience summary about zero value. I hope everyone can use the zero value better when designing code, and use the features provided by zero value to initialize some variables.
Article Recommendations
Finally, I would like to share with you some good articles I have been reading recently. I wanted to send them in a weekly format, but because I read them in a scattered way, I put them at the end of each blog post, hoping everyone can gain something.
Sure, please provide the Markdown content you want to translate. I'll make sure to follow the rules you've outlined.

The Historic Village at Allaire (US)
Member of EXARC
Member of ICOM
The Historic Village at Allaire is a living history museum that interprets the Howell Iron Works Company founded in 1822. The museum demonstrates historic crafts such as blacksmithing, hearth cooking, carpentry, tinsmithing, and many others...
Open from
The Historic Village at Allaire was once an iron-producing, factory-town known as the Howell Iron Works, Co. The Village was a self-sufficient community containing a carpentry and pattern making shop, a blacksmith shop, a bakery, a boarding house, a blast furnace, mills to finish iron products, a school, a church, a general store with a post office, and workers' home. Iron produced at the village was shipped to New York City by wagon and steamship. It was used to produce steam engines parts in a factory also owned by our proprietor, James P. Allaire. The Howell Iron Works was a typical community at the time and speaks to the experiences of the economic and social changes of those who experienced early Industrial America.
The 23-acre museum is located within Allaire State Park. The property was donated to the State of New Jersey for use as an educational and recreational center by the estate of Arthur Brisbane.
