Today most of the apparel industry and manufacturing houses are dependent on labor centric cutting cycle. Manually fabric cutting and sewing make production expensive. Here is the role of automation came in manufacturing houses. Automation in fabric cutting rooms can transform costly labor-intensive production into high-tech production houses.
What is cutting room?
Cutting Room is a section of the department, where fabric cutting is done and processed for the following section (e.g. sewing section) in the garments manufacturing industry
Automation In Cutting Room
Automation in fabric cutting room improves productivity and quality of apparel. It will be helpful to minimize human intervention and prevent manufacturing mistakes in the manufacturing houses soon.
Revolution of Automation in Cutting:
Versatile new inventions have automated cutting room layout in apparel manufacturing houses. In the early 1900s, an automatic spreading was developed, which carries a fabric role over the table had reduced manpower. Then the Die cutters came to increase fabric cutting efficiency and quality.
Later on, numerically controlled machines named NC machines came Infront in the 1940s and 50s. Then advancement of technology invents the computer numerically controlled CNC machines, supported by tools like computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) programs.
Modern Automated Cutting System
Today, most manufacturing houses have similar automated cutting configurations. Straight knives and band knives are used in most manufacturing houses.
A cutting knife device is set up on a flatbed cutting table in a straight knife cutting system. The cutting device can move above the table. But in the Band Cutting machine, the cutting knife has a permanent position. The fabric could be moved and floating by air circulation.
These movements of the cutting machine or fabric let the cutting over the pre-planned area. It's managed precisely by an automated or semi-automated control unit.
Fabric Cutting Configuration
In a modern automated cutting system, single ply or multiple plies of fabric has a different configuration to cut fabric.
Single-ply cutting enhances with continuous processes. It eliminates the requirements of the spreader. Cause, the fabric can be supplied to the cutting area directly from the fabric roll. A conveyorized belt is used for foraging for increased productivity.
When multiple fabric plies are spread to cut, it requires more substantial cutting power—still, most manufacturing houses use this procedure to enhance productivity.
The use of automatic cutting machines has reduced both the number of workers and the time compared to manually operated machines. Besides, accuracy and efficiency can be increased.

Automation In Fabric Cutting Room is the Necessity in Near Future for Manufacturing Houses
Till now, Fabric cutting is accustomed to being done manually. But currently, an automated fabric cutting machine is being employed. Therefore, it is easy to cut the fabric additional preciously than before.
In automatic fabric cutting, the working pattern is saved directly in the computer even while not creating marker paper. According to computer instruction, the automated cutting machine automatically and accurately cuts multiple plies of fabric concisely.
Today's modern cutting systems are equipped with a vacuum system. It enhances cutting accuracy during the cutting process. Modern Cutting Room Equipment helps to cut fabric accurately and reduce maximum fabric wastage.
Apparel manufacturing houses can use various cutting technologies in the modern cutting room, such as computer-controlled cutting, lasers cutting, water jets, plasma, even ultrasound. These cutting machines are adopted by contemporary manufacturing houses to be suitable for multi-ply cutting fabric.
Why Automation in Fabric Cutting Room is Essential?
Apparel manufacturers houses face versatile challenges in this pandemic, such as labor shortage, shortening lead product times and shrinking margins, and so on. Modern technology in the cutting room will provide a competitive advantage over manual ones.
Time to production is the most crucial factor now. And apparel manufacturers have realized that the more the human resources involved in the chain, the more are the chances of errors and delays. An increasing number of manufacturing houses recognize that automation cutting technology can overcome serious challenges.
Benefits of Automated Cutting Room:
- Reduce 50% material costs.
- Increase productivity and fabric cutting ratio.
- Reduce workforce and eliminate the need for skilled cutters.
- Accelerate the productive sewing process.
- Helps to utilize Maximum valuable floor space.
- Advanced Integrated data sharing saves time and money.
- Easy to Analyze and improve the cutting process with automatic metrics.
There is no alternative modern solution other than an automatic cutting system. With these automatic cutters, cutting is smoother effective and provides the manufacturer with the best option suited to their need.
The Future of Automation in Manufacturing Houses
Fabric is always soft and challenging to handle and manipulate. It requires complex motions to adjustments. Therefore, full automation in cutting has never been genuinely possible.
But it can be improved by using AI, cameras, sensors, mapping technology, and software-driven algorithms; sewbots can adjust or stop as required. Technological advancements and automation are drastically transforming how apparel is produced. Automation in the Fabric cutting room is the desired necessity for every manufacturing house to get enough productivity and efficiency in the near future.

A vast body of research focuses on the role of parents in athlete development; however, little is known about developmental influences of siblings. In general, family dynamics (i.e., patterns of relating or interacting among family members) have yet to be investigated in youth sport contexts. This study examines how family dynamics and the individual roles of parents and siblings influence the development of Canadian interuniversity student-athletes over time. Participants included four male and six female student-athletes. Each participant took part in a qualitative retrospective timeline interview. All data was subjected to a thematic analysis. Results indicate that siblings and parents play separate yet intricately connected roles in athlete development throughout childhood and adolescence. Overall, participants described a cohesive family unit built on shared values and joint participation in sport activities. They described stable and dynamic forms of support from their parents over time, and positive and negative sibling influences. These findings offer valuable insight into the dynamic nature of parent and sibling relationships with athletes in youth sport and beyond, as well as how these relationships operate in the broader family environment to optimize (and, at times, hinder) athletic development.

This section explains the possible methods to handle removable media, and optionally fixed media.
Handling Synchronous Connection and Disconnection
The synchronous approach to media connection and disconnection handling is simple: presume that the media exists, is connected, and relies on returned errors (most likely an IO error) to detect disconnections. This approach is more naturally fitted for fixed media, but can be used for removable media as well. Consider an application where a USB key is guaranteed to remain physically connected, for instance. In this context, it would make sense to use the synchronous approach even though the USB device is fundamentally a removable media.
Handling Asynchronous Connection and Disconnection
The asynchronous notification is available when FS_STORAGE_CFG_MEDIA_POLL_TASK_EN is set to DEF_ENABLED in fs_storage_cfg.h.
In order to receive the notifications, all you need to do is register two callbacks, one for connection and one for disconnection, using the FSStorage_ConfigureMediaConnCallback() API. Upon media connection or disconnection, the Media Poll task will call the corresponding application callback and pass the media handle as an argument. Listing - Media Connection / Disconnection Motification Mechanism Usage shows a minimal example of the notification mechanism where the user-provided callbacks merely print a message on the standard output each time a connection or disconnection event occurs. In a real-world context, the callback would typically post another task responsible for the actual event handling.
#define APP_FS_CFG_MAX_MEDIA_NAME_LEN 20u

void MyConnCb (FS_MEDIA_HANDLE media_handle)
{
 RTOS_ERR err;
 CPU_CHAR name[APP_FS_CFG_MAX_MEDIA_NAME_LEN + 1u]; /* +1 for null character terminating string. */

 FSMedia_NameGet(media_handle, name, sizeof(name), &err);
 if (err.Code == RTOS_ERR_NONE) {
 printf("Media '%s' connected!\r\n", name);
 }
}
void MyDisconnCb (FS_MEDIA_HANDLE media_handle) (1)
{
 RTOS_ERR err;
 CPU_CHAR name[APP_FS_CFG_MAX_MEDIA_NAME_LEN + 1u]; /* +1 for null character terminating string. */

 FSMedia_NameGet(media_handle, name, sizeof(name), &err);
 if (err.Code == RTOS_ERR_NONE) {
 printf("Media '%s' disconnected!\r\n", name);
 }
}
/* ... */
RTOS_ERR err;
FSStorage_ConfigureMediaConnCallback(MyConnCb, MyDisconnCb);
FSStorage_Init(&err)
if (err.Code != RTOS_ERR_NONE) {
 /* An error occurred. Error handling should be added here. */
}
/* From this point on, if a removable media is inserted or removed,
 a corresponding message will be printed on the standard output. */
Listing - Media Connection / Disconnection Motification Mechanism Usage
(1) In the disconnection callback, you could signal a task of your application that a removable media has been disconnected. If this task closes an opened volume with FSVol_Close(), you could get an error returned indicating an I/O error (RTOS_ERR_IO). In that case, the error should be considered as a normal situation. Indeed if the FAT journaling module is enabled via the configuration FS_FAT_CFG_JOURNAL_EN, when you close the volume, the File System stack deletes the journal file. Since the removable media (SCSI or SD) has been disconnected, the delete access on the physical media fails and an I/O error is returned.
Figure - Media Poll Task summarizes the usage of the Media Poll task for the asynchronous media detection.
Micrium OS FS Media Poll Task
Figure - Media Poll Task
(1) The Media Poll task interrogates periodically each opened block device to know if a connection or disconnection has occurred.
(2) If a connection or disconnection has been detected, the Media Poll task will call the appropriate application callback. In general, the connection callback will notify a user task about the media connection. For fixed media, the user application is notified only once about the connection. The fixed media disconnection cannot happen of course.
(3) The SCSI media driver has the ability to notify the application about a device presence without using the Media Poll task's help. Refer to the section Detection Regarless of Media Poll Task Presence for more details.
SCSI Removable Media
Detection Regarless of Media Poll Task Presence
As explained in the section Media, which describes the media's physical nature, SD card and SCSI media types are considered to be removable media. Yet there is a difference between an SD card and a SCSI device: their persistence. From the File System perspective, an SD card is said to be persistent, as opposed to a SCSI device, which is non-persistent. This difference makes it possible for the SCSI storage driver to be independent from the Media Poll task presence. That is, regardless of the Media Poll task configuration (#define FS_STORAGE_CFG_MEDIA_POLL_TASK_EN in fs_storage_cfg.h), the user callbacks will always be called upon SCSI device connection or disconnection. If you want to perform file accesses on a SCSI device, you must rely on the application connection callbacks called by File System. On the other hand, if the Media Poll task is disabled, an SD card will not be detected asynchronously. You can still detect an SD card synchronously if the SD card is always inserted in the SD slot.
Automatic Media Naming
As described in the section Media, a media name is assigned by you to NAND, NOR, RAM disk and SD so that they are registered in the Platform Manager and known from Micrium OS File System for properly configuring them. SCSI devices are a bit different because the media name is internally assigned by the SCSI media driver upon the device's connection. While you have full control on the media name for NAND, NOR, RAM disk and SD, the SCSI media name follows this format:
"scsiXXYY" where XX is a unique ID assigned to the connected SCSI device and YY is the logical unit number (a SCSI device is composed of one to N logical units).
When your application connection callback is called upon the SCSI device connection's detection, you have access to the SCSI media handle as shown in Listing - Media Connection / Disconnection Motification Mechanism Usage. If this media handle is passed to the function FSMedia_NameGet(), you will get for example the SCSI device with the name "scsi0001".
Micrium OS USB Host's Hub Task
The SCSI media driver works with Micrium OS USB Host to transport the SCSI commands over USB to memory sticks and memory card readers. Micrium OS USB Host has an internal task called the hub task responsible for all the hub-related events such as device connection, disconnection, etc. When a SCSI device connects to an embedded USB host, the USB Host hub task calls a connection callback provided by the SCSI media driver. Then this SCSI media driver's callback calls your application connection callback. This situation occurs only if the Media Poll task is disabled (#define FS_STORAGE_CFG_MEDIA_POLL_TASK_EN set to DEF_DISABLED in fs_storage_cfg.h). Within your application callback, you could call any functions that perform a file operation such as FSFile_Open(), FSFile_Rd(), etc. When calling these type of functions, several media read/write accesses can be done by the SCSI media driver passing through the different layers of Micrium OS USB Host stack. At this point, all the functions call stack is done within the USB Host hub task's context. For that specific case, the hub task must have a stack size large enough to accommodate worst case scenario of call stack. The default hub task's stack size is 768 elements as indicated in Table - Micrium OS Internal tasks. This stack size value should be sufficient for most typical cases. In general, your application connection callback would typically post another task responsible for the actual connection event handling. This other task would perform any file operations and would avoid any hub task's overflow issue.

In Europe, stainless steel rebars have been used since the mid-80s, whilst in North America, their use has been progressively growing only since the mid-90s. Due to their higher resistance to corrosion in comparison to ordinary black steel bars, they have been employed in a wide number of applications worldwide to achieve the durability performance of reinforced concrete structures, especially in extremely corrosive marine environments or when long service lives are required. In this paper, a state of the art on the corrosion resistance of stainless steel bars is reported. In particular, the contribution of Professor Luca Bertolini in this research field is considered. Initially, different testing methods are presented to point out their advantages and limitations and then the results on corrosion behaviour of different grades of stainless steel bars (i.e. austenitic, ferritic and duplex), obtained especially with tests in concrete, are analysed. Afterwards, some of the recent applications of stainless steel bars are illustrated.

Temple of Olympian Zeus
Though just fifteen columns of the original 104 are still standing, what remains of the Temple of Olympian Zeus is magnificent. Its scale is colossal, and when finally completed by the Roman Emperor Hadrian after 600 years of stop-and-start construction, the marble temple stood as the largest in both Greece and Rome. (During the years of Athenian democracy, the temple was left unfinished because the Greeks of that period thought it anti-democratic to build on such a scale. Aristotle cited the temple as an example of how tyrannies engaged the populace in great works for the state and left them no time, energy or means to rebel.) Size notwithstanding, there is a grace to the design: elegant in their symmetry, the fifty-five foot-tall columns are capped by ornate Corinthian capitals which seem to open up towards the heavens like flower buds A 16th column blew over in 1852 and is still lying where it fell like so many dominoes, giving me the feeling that it's much impressive as a romantic ruin than it ever could have been as a temple.

In tire manufacturing different material layers are rolled up onto a drum, thus the tire is built up layer by layer. For tire quality and safety it is necessary for the start and end of each layer to have a defined overlap.
Up to now, for the determination of this overlap, systems capable of acquiring only one track are employed. The Fraunhofer EZRT development SpliceChecker is applying light-sectioning techniques in order to inspect layer setup along the entire width and circumference for the first time. As a result of this measurement not only the overlap is determined but also a possible lateral offset of the layer with regards to its desired position. Optionally, it can also be determined, whether the layer has been deposited at all or if a material with incorrect width or thickness was used. Also production flaws like folded corners ("dog-ears") or foldings can be detected.
In light-sectioning a light-section is projected diagonally towards material layer onto the drum and monitored by a specialized camera under an angle from the projection direction. From the course of the light section a height profile is generated. During tire buildup up to 8000 height profiles of the material layer are recorded. This enables tire buildup inspection even at layer deposition velocities of 120 m/min.
The current SpliceChecker systems are acquiring the layer buildup on a width of 400 mm or 700 mm resp. Under development is a modular system capable of acquiring a layer width of up to 1000 mm with just one camera. Measurement speed and resolution are adapted to the individual requirements of our customers. By coupling with existing machine controls an integration into existing manufacturing systems is possible.
- Data acquisition during layer buildup
- Suitable for all material layers (Innerliner, Ply, Breaker, etc.)
- Usually no additional cycle time required
- Measurement of the entire material layer
- Precise determination of splice (overlap/open) throughout the entire width
- Determination of material width and offset throughout the entire winding
- Customer specific evaluation possible
- No reference data acquisition necessary
- Can be flexibly adapted to various tire systems
- Offline evaluation of saved data possible

Abstract: Flywheels have been in use for a very long time, however, there is need to continuously improve the existing ones or develop new ones. The design of a functional high performance vehicle composite flywheel is presented. The component materials include aluminium hub, cast iron friction surface and alloy gear rim. Since the stored energy in a flywheel is proportional to the square of its rotational speed, the obvious method for maximizing stored energy is to push the speed of the flywheel. There is a limiting speed, which is set by the stresses developed within the wheel due to inertia loads that are also proportional to the square of rotational speed. A composite wheel of this nature weighs less than the conventional whole cast iron or steel alloy wheel and hence, develops lower inertia loads at a given speed. The combination of high strength and low weight enables extremely high tip speeds related to conventional flywheels. A C++ computer programme was developed for the computation of the major parameters of the composite flywheel. The design drawings for the isotropic discand rim-type flywheel, components of the composite flywheel and the assembly were also presented. The components were assembled using high strength fasteners. The conventional automobile flywheel designed for cast iron material weigh about 9.0 kg and that for steel alloy weigh about 9.4 kg. However, the composite wheel design for components of cast iron, steel alloy and aluminium alloy weigh a total of 4.8 kg and is lighter. This means it can be made lean ad compact. Experimental study of the mechanical properties, heat treatment, vibration analysis and dynamic balancing proved the performance of the composite flywheel as test results conforms to standards. Freeing up so much rotating mass from the engine with a lighter flywheel makes it very responsive. It revs up much more quickly and low speed acceleration is improved.

E.J. Campbell High School; Prior to 1903 African American children in Nacogdoches were taught at two different locations by Will Sanders, Peyton Edwards Walton, Sr., and T. C. Ayers. In 1903, the schools were combined and moved to a building on Shawnee Street to create the Nacogdoches Colored School. This building, which is still standing on Shawnee Street, educated African American children of all grades. In 1937, the school board voted to change the name to E.J. Campbell School in honor of a former principal. The building continued to educate all grade levels until 1954 at which time high school students moved into a new building across the street. The high school became known as E.J. Campbell High School and the old building became Emaline Carpenter Elementary School. From 1965 to 1969, NISD offered a "freedom of choice" plan with schools becoming fully integrated in the 1970-71 school year.

Benjamin Franklin was inspired to create his own version of the armonica after listening to a concert of Handel's Water Music which was played on tuned wine glasses.
Benjamin Franklin's armonica, created in 1761, was smaller than the originals and did not require water tuning. Benjamin Franklin's design used glasses that were blown in the proper size and thickness which created the proper pitch without having to be filled with water. The glasses were nested in each other which made the instrument more compact and playable. The glasses were mounted on a spindle which was turned by a foot treadle.
His armonica won popularity in England and on the Continent. Beethoven and Mozart composed music for it. Benjamin Franklin, an avid musician, kept the armonica in the blue room on the third floor of his house. He enjoyed playing armonica/harpsicord duets with his daughter Sally and bringing the armonica to get togethers at his friends' homes.


Grammar: [noun] [de staking, de stakingen].
Translates to: "strike".
The verb that goes with "staking" is "staken", which means "to strike". The Dutch are not eager to strike but it happens once in a while, especially in public transportation.
1. "In de vier grote steden is er vandaag een staking in het openbaar vervoer."
("In the four big cities, today there's a strike in public transportation." See 'Extra' below.)
This example is based on a true event ;-), see
2. "Omdat het overleg tussen de vakbonden en de overheid is vastgelopen, is er vandaag een staking."
("Because the negotiations between the unions and the government have reached a deadlock, there will be a strike today.") See also "DWOTD 77. Overleg".
3. "Vanwege de slechte omstandigheden besloot de gevangene in hongerstaking te gaan."
("Because of the bad conditions the prisoner decided to go on hunger strike.")
Related Words:
1. "Staker": striker.
2. "Vakbond": union.
3. "Werkonderbreking": (work) stoppage.
4. "Protesteren": to protest.
"De vier grote steden" (see example 1 above) is the common group name for Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Den Haag and Utrecht.
6 thoughts on "Staking
 What about the expression RANDSTAD?
 2. The term 'Randstad' (literally: edge city) is used to indicate the agglomeration that consists of 'de vier grote steden' and all the surrounding areas that all together form a strip from Amsterdam to Rotterdam following the coast line ("edge"). For example: the city of Leiden is not one of the 'vier grote steden', but it is however part of the 'Randstad'. Read more at
 The word "Randstad" appeared earlier in "DWOTD 26. Fluitje" (
 3. Does "staken" also mean "to strike" as in to hit something? Or is it strictly a business oriented strike?
 4. "Staken" does not translate to "to hit something", however it does have a second meaning, which would be "to end an activity of some kind" in a more general sense. Here are three common examples:
 1. "De politie staakte de zoektocht, omdat het te donker werd."
 ("The police stopped the search, because it got too dark.")
 2. "De wedstrijd werd gestaakt vanwege het wangedrag van sommige spelers."
 ("The game was ended due to the misbehaviour of some of the players."
 3. "Ik staak het verzet!"
 ("I end my resistance!")
 5. Which version is correct:
 "Prettig weekend!" or "Prettige weekend!"
 Looking at the weather forecast for this weekend you might claim that neither is likely, but I would be interested from a grammatical point of view.

First of all, we have to determine why the dog shivering, many friends may be because the dog shivering in winter, and feel that a variety of diseases. Feeling that the nutrition is not enough too thin to feed the dog a lot of nutritious food without moderation, but will lead to the dog's own height development is seriously affected. Usually in the process of feeding as long as to ensure that the dog's nutrition is more balanced, because in many cases the dog must be fed for a long time through the scientific modulation to ensure the nutritional value.
If the dog shivers regularly in winter, it may be due to the weather, and if it is because of the weather you don't have to worry about it. This is because even human beings are known to shake a little to fight the cold. In most cases, if the weather is very cold and the hair on the dog is thin, then shivering does occur.
If the dog has been beaten by some stranger or bullied by some one, it may also develop a panic shiver. Then at this point of time we must look to see if the dog appears to be injured. It is important to carefully check the different parts to see if there is any injury, if it is injured it should be bandaged immediately otherwise there may be viral infections.
A lack of calcium in the dog may also lead to convulsions. This is because the dog may tremble all over the body once there is a problem of calcium deficiency. In many cases, dogs like to chew bones because of this reason. So in the usual feeding process, must pay attention to the balanced diet, of course, for the dog calcium deficiency can be through the calcium tablets to supplement the calcium content. Sprinkle a layer of powdered calcium tablets in the appropriate food to ensure that the pet's diet is balanced.


Supplements and Mewing
Mewing can take years to create obvious bone changes. So it makes sense that people would want to reduce that time as much as possible. It's not covered much, but there is a significant debate about whether supplements help with mewing.
Supplements that can assist you with mewing include HGH, B Vitamins, Vitamin D3, Vitamin K2, Magnesium, and gum. However, any gains from supplements will be negligible and on par with a placebo. Nothing can change the fact that mewing is a slow process.
These supplements do not directly help you with mewing because the process of mewing is largely dependent on effort and dedication. Although these vitamins can help you with bone elasticity or growth, mewing is not affected much by your consumption of supplements.
For the ultimate primer on what exactly speeds up bone remodeling, check out our article on how to speed up bone remodeling.
HGH
HGH is human growth hormone. It speeds up both osteoblasts (which lay down new bone) and osteoclasts (which break down bone). Though not really a supplement, it's more of a drug originally used for athletic performance and anti-aging benefits. It should be prescribed by a doctor and dangerous if you take it longer than 6 weeks.
For more info, check out our article on mewing and HGH.
B Vitamins
Many food sources contain B vitamins. These sources include milk, cheese, eggs, meat, fish, and the list goes on. Usually, if a person eats a balanced diet, they would not be deficient in B vitamins.
There are many benefits of B vitamins. Some of these include cell health and growth, improved energy levels, better eyesight, muscle health, nerve function, and many more. However, this vitamin is not normally taken for bones.
However, research links B vitamins to better bone growth and health, though the results are not conclusive. For example, a study by Dai et al. (2015) showed B-vitamins' effects on bone health. The researchers found that though there is potential in the idea that B-vitamins could support bone health, though there are no actual conclusive results, and the test trials do not seem promising. However, the researchers also stated that B vitamins might help the coupling between osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which means the action of osteoblasts and osteoclasts will be about equal instead of favoring one other.
Regardless, these vitamins have a lot of other health benefits. So, even though they may not be the most helpful for mewing, they can still help you and your health.
Vitamin D3
Vitamin D is something that promotes bone health by improving the absorption of Phosphorus and Calcium. This kind of vitamin is present in foods such as fatty fish and their liver oils.
This vitamin is quite difficult to find naturally, so that you may need actual supplements for this.
Children who don't get enough vitamin D may get rickets, a condition where the bones are weak and bowed. Proper intake of adequate amounts of vitamin D is essential in growing good and healthy bones.
In this study by Laird et al. (2010), the researchers said that inadequate vitamin D consumption leads to bone mineralization and weakening. Without the right amount of this vitamin, you expose yourself to many bone diseases such as osteoporosis.
So, when does mewing come into the picture? Since vitamin D is necessary for normal bone health, it could benefit your mewing results, but only if you're deficient in it.
Mewing is all about changing the bones' placement, so any help you can get regarding bones should be welcome.
That said, don't expect this to have drastic effects on your mewing; because it likely won't. It will keep your bones healthy, and that is something that you may want to invest your resources in.
Vitamin K2
Vitamin K2 is another vitamin that supports bone health. It is mostly present in the meat products of animals such as the liver or eggs. It also helps with vessel calcification and heart health.
This study by Schwalfenberg (2017) on the vitamin shows that it works best when taken with vitamin D and calcium. The study states that vitamin K2 assists in preventing diseases like diabetes, osteoarthritis, and even cancer. Basically, it helps make sure calcium goes into your bones, not your arteries.
Vitamin K2 improves the action of osteoblasts, which build bone. However, K2 might potentially slow down your bone remodeling because it inhibits the action of osteoclasts, which break down old bone (Myneni et al., 2017).
K2 has the potential to suppress bone resorption or turnover by inhibiting osteoclast-induced bone resorption and/or increasing osteoblast activity.
However, we don't know for a fact whether remodeling really slows down with vitamin K2 or not. Your body will generally try to keep the balance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts.
So be careful about supplementing K2. However, if you're deficient, it probably won't hurt your gains. When taking K2, you just need to find some way to increase bone resorption and the action of osteoclasts.
Magnesium
You've probably heard of magnesium. That's because, apart from it being a known substance, it is also present in many foods. Magnesium is present in dark chocolate, almonds, peanuts, whole wheat bread, carrots, and many other kinds of food. This works out because magnesium is essential in many body functions.
Magnesium helps improve energy levels, moods, muscle movement, among others. But most importantly, in this context, magnesium helps with improving bone density and preventing osteoporosis.
Mammoli et al., 2019 showed that magnesium helps regulate the balance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Diets that are deficient in magnesium hurt the bone remodeling process. So at the very least, you want to make sure you're eating a balanced diet and getting adequate amounts.
Gum
Okay, so technically, gum isn't a supplement, and it's not intended to be. But in the conversation of what stuff can help you with mewing, chewing gum is part of it. Dr. Mike Mew endorses gum while mewing, and he concludes that chewing gum enhances your facial muscles, thereby making your jawline more defined.
One of the ways you can do this is by chewing mastic gum. Mastic is a type of resin that improves digestion, oral health, and liver health.
It can also help eliminate certain types of bacteria, as evidenced by this study by Dabos (2010).
Most people who use mastic gum recommend that you do it for at least a few hours each day, but they warn against doing it too much. You should start slow, at 10 minutes per day, and add a few minutes every week while also ensuring you get adequate rest. You might cause yourself some trouble if you don't chew properly and in moderation. It's a great tool to supplement mewing, and with the added health benefits you can get, it's worth checking out.
Falim gum is another option that is available to you. This one is much more like the normal gum texture, so most people go for this over mastic gum. In many cases, people don't like mastic gum's taste, so falim gum is a good alternative. It is a sugar-free gum from Turkey that is cheaper than mastic gum.
Conclusion
Overall, supplements are good for you, yes. But their direct effects on mewing are little to none. Among the items on this list, gum is probably the only thing you will give a visible contribution to your jawline. However, the supplements and vitamins that talked about do help your bones and help keep them healthy. For that reason alone, making sure you have them in your diet is a priority. You could consult with your GP to check if you are deficient in any vitamins or minerals, and the results could surprise you.
Again, our how to speed up bone remodeling article is a far more comprehensive primer to bone remodeling if you'd like to dig deeper.
Remember that mewing results come from hard work and dedication. It would be best if you didn't rely on supplements and such to aid you much. Your progress in mewing will be mostly thanks to your hard work.

This topic will demonstrate how to determine optimum drilling flow rate for both drilling hydraulic optimization methods (the maximum hydraulic horse power and the maximum impact force). If you don't know the equations, please read this article first, Determine Optimum Drilling Flow Rate for Basic System – Drilling Hydraulics.
The information is listed below:
Hole size = 8.5 inch
Depth In = 2,000 ft
Depth out = 6,000 ft
Mud properties at starting point
Mud weight = 9.2 ppg
PV = 13
YP = 10
From the previous post (total pressure loss excluding the bit), we know the equation (shown below)
We can solve the equation to get the flow rate (Q) that match with optimization criteria (Maximum Hydraulic Horsepower or Maximum Impact Force)
Maximum Hydraulic Horsepower will be happened when the pressure drop across the bit is equal to 65% of total pressure loss; therefore, 35% of total pressure loss (Ps) occurs through the drill stem (Po). The equation will be like this Po = 0.35 x Ps. By substituting Po with 0.35Ps into the Equation#1, you can solve for the optimum flow rate which will give you the maximum hydraulic horsepower.
Solve for Q
Maximum Impact Force can be obtained when 48% of total pressure loss is at the bit so 52% of total pressure loss (Ps) occurs through the drill stem (Po). Substituting 52% of Ps into the Equation#1 will allow you to get the optimum flow rate at maximum impact force.

The LNP_TEST function computes the Lomb Normalized Periodogram of two sample populations X and Y and tests the hypothesis that the populations represent a significant periodic signal against the hypothesis that they represent random noise.
LNP_TEST is based on the routine
fasper described in section 13.8 of Numerical Recipes in C: The Art of Scientific Computing (Second Edition), published by Cambridge University Press, and is used by permission.
Result = LNP_TEST( X, Y [, /DOUBLE] [, HIFAC=scale_factor] [, JMAX=variable] [, OFAC=value] [, WK1=variable] [, WK2=variable] )
The result is a two-element vector containing the maximum peak in the Lomb Normalized Periodogram and its significance. The significance is a value in the interval [0.0, 1.0]; a small value indicates that a significant periodic signal is present.
An n-element integer, single-, or double-precision floating-point vector containing equally or unequally spaced time samples.
An n-element integer, single-, or double-precision floating-point vector containing amplitudes corresponding to Xi.

The small value of the significance represents the possibility of a significant periodic signal. A larger number of samples for X and Y would produce a more conclusive result. WK1 and WK2 are both 48-element vectors containing linear frequencies and corresponding Lomb values, respectively. JMAX is the indexed location of the maximum Lomb value in WK2.

A Wheatstone bridge can be defined as an electrical circuit in which an unknown electrical resistance can be measured with the help of two different legs belonging to a bridge circuit.
Definition- Wheatstone bridge
Wheatstone bridge, also known as the resistance bridge, calculates the unknown resistance by balancing two legs of the bridge circuit. One leg includes the component of unknown resistance. The Wheatstone bridge works on the principle of null deflection, i.e. the ratio of their resistances are equal and no current flows through the circuit.
Applications of Wheatstone bridge
- The Wheatstone Bridge is utilised for measuring the very low resistance values accurately.
- A Wheatstone bridge beside an operational amplifier is used to measure the physical parameters like temperature, strain, light, etc.
- One can also estimate the quantities of capacitance, inductance and impedance using the variations on the Wheatstone Bridge.

Can headphones break in cold weather? The low temperature won't damage the headphones, but the moisture does. Read on to know how you can protect your headphones.
Nowadays, most headphones can withstand cold weather and even light rain. The cold temperature usually does not break the headphones. Unfortunately, cold weather comes with a bit of moisture, which can damage the headphone drivers.
You can use your headphones at a high temperature of 40°C. But exceeding this limit will compromise its performance and damage it. If you use headphones in freezing weather, your battery will die much faster as very low temperature and moisture kill the battery.
In this article, let us further look at:
- How can a low temperature reduce battery life
- How does moisture break headphones
- Does cold weather affect wireless connectivity
- Do headphones keep ears warm?
- How can you protect your headphone from damage?
How Can a Low Temperature Reduce Battery Life?
Any electric device needs power to function. The battery supplies power to most of these devices. You need to handle the battery with care, and if exposed to extremely cold weather, it can damage the device.
Most of the lithium-ion batteries in headphones and other devices do not work well in extremely cold weather. As a result, the battery's life is reduced and discharges quickly.

How Does Moisture Break Headphones?
Humidity and moisture are the main factors to consider when you use your headphones in cold weather as they may damage them.
Usually, water and electronics don't mix well. However, cold weather does not damage your headphones. But when you move your headphones from a cold temperature to a warmer one and use them, it causes condensation to form inside the headphone.
Water can also get inside the headphone from condensation, which damages it. The moisture present in headphones can create electrical shocks and damage the metal parts there in your headphones.
So when you move from chilly to a warmer room, make sure not to use the headphones for some time. Switch it off for a few minutes and let the moisture out.
Does Cold Weather Affect Wireless Connectivity?
The RF radio waves and Bluetooth connectivity are not affected by low temperatures. Even if your battery is low, you can use Bluetooth headphones in cold weather.
But when you use headphones in cold weather, the battery may discharge in just two hours or even less. The performance of batteries of low-end Bluetooth devices may run out quickly.
So if you are going to use your headphones at low temperatures, always get good quality headphones. The weather will not affect the Bluetooth but the sub-zero temperature damages the device.
Do Headphones Keep Your Ears Warm?
There are winter headphones available nowadays that can handle low temperatures pretty well. They have a dual function and can keep the headphone insulated during the cold weather and also helps keep the ears warm.
Winter headphones have good insulating properties that can withstand extremely cold weather without the risk of freezing. In contrast, the plastic on most of the headphones breaks in extremely cold weather.
How Can You Protect Your Headphone From Damage?
Though the cold weather affects the headphones badly, there are ways you can protect them.
You can buy a thermal cover and cover your headphones. You will find the thermal cover in any store or even online. This cover helps isolate your headphones from extremely low temperatures as much as possible. You can listen to your favorite songs for quite a long time. But avoid overusing it.
You can either avoid wearing headphones to protect them from low temperatures. Or you can get good quality winter headphones that are available in the market. The winter headphones are pretty comfortable and come with earmuffs to keep you warm.
The winter headphones are helpful in three ways: they can withstand cold weather, warm your ears, and have good noise cancellation to enjoy your music. These headphones can withstand low temperatures and prevent the headphone's structure from corroding.

Some wireless headphones can withstand cold weather and do not let the cable freeze. The low temperature does not affect the Bluetooth, enabling you to use the headphones without worry. You should protect your smartphone.
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
Is it bad to leave headphones in car? Can you leave headphones in a cold car?
Leaving your headphones in the car is not a good idea unless the temperature outside is at an average room temperature.
If you leave your headphones in cold weather for a long time, when you finally take them into a warm place, there might be condensation inside the headphone, which is sure to damage the headset's electronics.
What temperature is bad for headphones?
In any electric device, the circuit generates heat when it's functioning. If you expose the headphone to direct heat for a long time, it will destroy the headphone parts inside.
Similarly, any device will work properly at a low temperature. However, it will have a problem if the weather is freezing outside. Using headphones at extremely low temperatures such as -80°C can damage the electronic circuit.

What can you do when your headphones break in cold weather?
When you get your headphones from extremely chilly weather outside, don't try to heat them immediately with something. You will damage it more. So if you have kept your headphones in chilly weather for a long time, you need to get them to average room temperature.
Usually, the climate of any country ranges from 22 to 30 degrees. So let your device get back to average temperature if you have just come from chilly weather. Your headphones will start working again in some time.
So Can Headphones Break in Cold Weather? Yes, They Can.
Extremely cold weather affects the performance of the headphones. The electric circuit, battery, or the metallic part outside may not function properly due to the moisture inside.
But if you enjoy listening to music in cold weather using your headphones, you must invest in some good low-temperature resistant headphones of excellent quality.
You can replace them with winter headphones. Winter headphones have excellent insulation and protect your device in chilly weather, and keep your ears warm.
I hope now you get some idea of how you can protect your headphones from damage and extend their lifetime in cold weather.

Hello all, I would appreciate comments on the following question:
A main theorem of symmetric functions might be formulated: Let k be a field of char. 0. Then $k[x_1,...,x_n]^{S_n} = k[s_1,...,s_n]$, i.e. symmetric polynomials can be written as polynomials in the elementary symmetric polynomials. Moreover, $s_1,...,s_n$ satisfy no polynomial relations.
I want to see how to prove it using Galois theory. I thus consider the field $M=k(x_1,...,x_n)$ and its subfields $K=k(s_1,...,s_n)$ and $L$, the subfield of symmetric functions. Thus $K \subset L \subset M$. I then consider the polynomial $G(t)=(t-x_1)...(t-x_n)$. It has coefficients in $K$. $M$ is the splitting field of $G$ over $K$. Hence $[M:K] \leq n!$. From this we already see that $s_1,...,s_n$ satisfy no polynomial relations. On the other hand, $M$ has $n!$ different automorphism over $L$, which are permuting the $x_i$. Hence from Galois theory we can conclude that $L=K$.
My question is: How can I deduce the claim $k[x_1,...,x_n]^{S_n} = k[s_1,...,s_n]$ from the corresponding one for rational functions: $L=K$.

I hope the following works. Let $A=k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]^{S_n}$, and let $B=k[s_1,\ldots,s_n]$. The polynomial algebra $k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ is an integral extension of $B$, and hence, a fortiori, $A$ is integral over $B$. I think your argument proves that $A$ and $B$ have the same fraction field. However, since $B$ is (isomorphic to) a polynomial algebra, it must be integrally closed, whence $A=B$.

The theorem that you are trying to reprove is true if $k$ is any commutative ring. – Tom Goodwillie Jul 4 '10 at 21:36
I was not trying to reprove any theorems, and in the statement of the question $k$ is a field. – senti_today Jul 5 '10 at 1:22

Remember the pills with the Remember to Take Medication Hypnosis Script
Even when you only have to take medication for a brief period, it can be a challenge to make sure you take the right dose, at the right time, all the time. Even more so if there is more than one type of medication to take, and different time intervals or quantities. But getting it wrong, or missing doses, can have serious consequences.
So just how do you instill a new routine, effectively and quickly?
The Remember to Take Medication Hypnosis Script from The Script Collection was developed to provide a tool for anyone who has to take medication regularly, whether for a shorter or longer time, which will help them easily remember to take their doses.
The pre-talk reiterates the importance of taking medicine as prescribed, and looks at why it can feel so difficult to get in control of the routine and what can be done to make it easier.
The client is invited to focus on their desired medication routine briefly so that it is in the forefront of consciousness. This raises susceptibility to embedded commands which set the expectation that a new routine will be effectively established. Further embedded suggestions are woven into the induction which takes the client via a set of truisms into a primed learning state.
The medication procedure is set as an indispensible routine, and the process of instigating and completing it at the right time is rehearsed as a vividly experienced present reality. This makes it much easier for the client to instinctively remember to take their medication.

The Slippy Flippy Challenge: Make Active Boundaries in Sprite Kit.
icon2_120In Flappy Bird, hitting the top or bottom boundaries ends the game. They also convey a sense of motion. The boundaries make for a better playing experience. Last time, we set up collision detection, but we need boundaries that are sprites. Sprite node boundaries would be able to tell us what we hit, and run handlers for those cases. We animate them to give a sense of motion.
The boundaries are two sprites that don't move. We have one on the top of the screen and one on the bottom of it. Most properties of the top and bottom sprites are the same. Make one method to make both:
-(SKSpriteNode *)makeWorldBoundaryWithName:(NSString*)name{
 CGSize size = CGSizeMake(self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height * 0.10); //10% of height
 SKSpriteNode *boundary = [SKSpriteNode spriteNodeWithColor:[UIColor blueColor] size:size]; = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%_USER_",name]; //all boundaries suffixed with Boundary
 boundary.physicsBody = [SKPhysicsBody bodyWithRectangleOfSize:size]; //physics on, no gravity or motion
 boundary.physicsBody.dynamic = NO;
 boundary.physicsBody.categoryBitMask = obstacleCategory;
 boundary.physicsBody.collisionBitMask = penguinCategory;
 boundary.physicsBody.contactTestBitMask = penguinCategory;
 return boundary;
This code should be familiar by now. It has been covered in other posts. We make the boundary size proportional to self.frame. With two boundaries, take a fifth of the frame height for the boundary, and the width of the screen. Make the boundary a solid blue, and set up physics. Like the obstacles, this is a non dynamic physics body. Set the collision bit masks to find this as a boundary. If there is a penguin collision, the physics engine executes didBeginContact: as we discussed last time.
Orient the boundary to the edge of the frame. Some quick calculations can find it, but there is a better way. Each node has a property AnchorPoint which is a CGPoint with x and y values between 0.0 and 1.0. Sprite Kit uses AnchorPoint to figure position. By default, it is the center of the node.
anchor points
Anchor Points
As indicated in blue, we can use points at (0.5,1.0) and (0.5,0.0) as anchor points for aligning the top and bottom directly to the edge. We can add the following code to initWithSize:.
//make boundaries
SKSpriteNode *topBoundary= [self makeWorldBoundaryWithName:@"top"];
topBoundary.anchorPoint = CGPointMake(0.5, 1.0); //top center anchor
topBoundary.position = CGPointMake(CGRectGetMidX(self.frame), CGRectGetMaxY(self.frame));
[self addChild:topBoundary];
SKSpriteNode *bottomBoundary = [self makeWorldBoundaryWithName:@"bottom"];
bottomBoundary.anchorPoint = CGPointMake(0.5, 0.0); //bottom center anchor
bottomBoundary.position = CGPointMake(CGRectGetMidX(self.frame), CGRectGetMinX(self.frame));
[self addChild:bottomBoundary];
The new method makeWorldBoundaryWithName:makes a sprite. Change the anchor point, then place our boundary easily on the edge of self.frame.
Build and run:
iOS Simulator Screen shot May 12, 2014, 6.09.00 AM
We now have top and bottom boundaries. The penguin bounces off them. As we move forward, there are several thing we need to do:
 - Add animation on the boundaries to convey a sense of movement
 - Handle a Game Over situation
 - Correct the obstacle code so the gap must show up in playable space
 - Add a scoring and high score mechanism
We will address each of these. Next time, we will add animation on the boundaries through marquee animation.

text: The main scientific goal of this work is the presentation of the role of selected geophysical methods (Ground-Penetrating Radar GPR and Electrical Resistivity Tomography ERT) to identify water escape zones from retention reservoirs. The paper proposes a methodology of geophysical investigations for the identification of water escape zones from a retention fresh water lake (low mineralised water). The study was performed in a lake reservoir in Upper Silesia. Since a number of years the administrators of the lake have observed a decreasing water level, a phenomenon that is not related to the exploitation of the object. The analysed retention lake has a maximal depth between 6 and 10 m, depending on the season. It is located on Triassic carbonate rocks of the Muschelkalk facies. Geophysical surveys included measurements on the water surface using ground penetration radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) methods. The measurements were performed from watercrafts made of non-metal materials. The prospection reached a depth of about 1 to 5 m below the reservoir bottom. Due to large difficulties of conducting investigations in the lake, a fragment with an area of about 5,300 m 2, where service activities and sealing works were already commenced, was selected for the geophysical survey. The scope of this work was: (1) field geophysical research (Ground-Penetrating Radar GPR and Electrical Resistivity Tomography ERT with geodesic service), (2) processing of the obtained geophysical research results, (3) modelling of GPR and ERT anomalies on a fractured water reservoir bottom, and (4) interpretation of the obtained results based on the modelled geophysical anomalies. The geophysical surveys allowed for distinguishing a zone with anomalous physical parameters in the area of the analysed part of the retention lake. ERT surveys have shown that the water escape zone from the reservoir was characterised by significantly decreased electrical resistivities. Diffraction hyperboles and a zone of wave attenuation were observed on the GPR images in the lake bottom within the water escape zone indicating cracks in the bottom of the water reservoir. The proposed methodology of geophysical surveys seems effective in solving untypical issues such as measurements on the water surface.

While this question might seem eerily similar to the last one, it is vastly different. Here, you have an array in which every element has a duplicate except one element. For example,
2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 5, 4, 9, 1, 3
Here, 1 is your expected answer since it does not have a duplicate. So how would you go about tackling this question? I will point out three approaches :
1. Sort the array. It will take O(n lg n) time with a sorting method like Quick Sort (or one of the others we discussed previously). Once the array is sorted, you just need to move through the array once and compare every pair of consecutive elements. The first pair that isn't equal will be your answer. Sorting the earlier example, we get,
1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 9, 9
You can quickly find that 1 occurs only once by this kind of comparison.
2. Counting the number of times a number occurs by utilizing another array. But this can only be used when you have an fixed range within which the elements can be. Even if we have such a range given, this way takes O(n) of both time and space. Can we do better?
3. Yes, we can do better. The best method will take only time O(n) and utilizes bit manipulation. All you need to do is move through the array once and XOR each element. In the previous example, we would do,
2^2^3^4^5^9^5^4^9^1^3 (XOR sign – ^)
The result will be 1, i.e., your answer. Why? XOR has the property of setting bit as zero if the two bits being XORed are same. Also, it follows the commutative property. The above expression is equivalent to,
1^2^2^3^3^4^4^5^5^9^9
Hence, all duplicates will give a zero. And zero XORed with your no-duplicates-for-it number will give you the number itself. Tada! 🙂
Nice, eh?!

Eucalyptus Longhorned Borers
Recommended Steps to Control Eucalyptus Long-horned Borers
If caught early enough, immediately apply Multi-Insect Killer Tree Injection Kit to the tree. This insecticide is injected directly into the tree's vascular system and is released quickly to help kill insects already inside the vascular system.
To prevent Eucalyptus Long-horned borer attacks, in the areas where the insect is active, there are a number of steps that can be taken to reduce the chances of a harmful attack. In the early spring, treating the tree with Once-A-Year Insecticidal Drench w/Merit helps protect the tree's vascular system. This treatment can be supplemented by regularly spraying the tree's trunk with a good dosage of Borer-Miner Killer (every three to three weeks), thus creating a barrier to reduce further insect penetration through the bark.
The good news is that healthy and well-maintained trees are normally more resistant to the Eucalyptus Long-horned Borer, as well as less of a target. Trees under stress are more likely to be borer targets, so it is important to ensure that Eucalyptus trees receive adequate water. To help ensure that a tree is healthy, apply a TreeHelp Annual Care Kit for Eucalyptus in the spring or early summer which contain the appropriate fertilizer and mycorrhizal treatment to support the functioning of the root system.

Characteristics of Rockhopper Penguins
Northern Rockhopper Penguin
Northern Rockhopper Penguin
Rockhopper penguins have a variety of characteristics that sets them apart from other penguins. They get the name Rockhopper penguins because they can easily hop from rock to rock compared to other penguins. Although their crests resemble other crested penguins, a trained eye can distinguish the difference even among the Rockhopper subspecies. They also have personality traits that set the apart from other penguins. Even though they have different characteristics from other penguins, they still share a few common traits that all penguins share.
Rockhopper penguins are one six crested species of penguins left in existence today. Rockhopper penguins are further classified into four subspecies. These include:
 - the Northern Rockhopper (Eudyptes moseleyi)
 - the Southern Rockhopper (Eudyptes chrysocome)
 - the Eastern Rockhopper (Eudyptes chrysocome filholi)
 - the Western Rockhopper (Eudyptes chrysocome chrysocome)
The Western Rockhopper and the Eastern Rockhopper are considered subspecies of the Southern Rockhopper.
Physical Characteristics
Being a member of the crested penguin family, one of the first physical characteristic noticed is the yellow crest, or superscilium, behind their deep red eyes. The look of the crest varies between each subspecies of Rockhopper penguins. The Northern Rockhopper has large yellow and black crests that fan out. The Eastern Rockhopper has smaller yellow to white crests that lay closer to their head. The Western Rockhopper has even smaller crest that are a pale to bright yellow. The Southern Rockhopper has yellow crests that fan up but aren't a large as the Northern Rockhopper penguin.
All Rockhopper penguins have bright orange to reddish orange bills. Underneath the mandible of the Eastern Rockhopper is a pink line of fleshy skin. The rest of the subspecies has black under their mandible. They are predominantly black with a white front torso. The feathers toward the back of their head are spiked up. They have pale web feet and black leathery flippers. Some Rockhopper penguins have white stripes along their cheeks but the cheeks of juveniles are pale. The younger chicks are fluffy versions of the adults without the yellow crests.
Being a relatively small penguin, adults can reach a height of 18 to 23 inches (48 to 58 centimeters). The average Rockhopper penguin weighs in at approximately 5 pounds. However, there have been a few that have reached 11 pounds. For the most part both males and females look the same. However, the males can be larger in size than the females.
Personality Characteristics
Rockhopper penguins are a grumpy lot of penguins. They have a very aggressive temperament. Rockhopper penguins will fight over practically anything. This includes food, nesting materials, mates, territory, and anything else they want. They are also very loud with their vocalizations. During breeding season, their vocalizations get even louder.
Scroll to Continue
Breeding Characteristics
Rockhopper penguins breed in the summer months of the Southern Hemisphere starting in October. The breeding colonies are relatively small due to their aggressive disposition.They will make their nest by digging a hole and lining it with grass or choose a location among tumbled boulders of rocky shores. The females will typically lay two eggs. However, the first egg is smaller and is typically rejected by the parents. Both male and female Rockhopper penguins take turns incubating the egg until it hatches about 35 days later. They continue to care for the chick mutually until around March when the chick is ready to be self-sufficient. The average life span of a Rockhopper penguin is about ten years.
Habitat Characteristics
Like previously stated, Rockhopper penguins got their name because of their ability to hop from rock to rock. Their preferred habitat is the rocky shores of various islands across the Southern Indian Ocean, the South Atlantic Ocean, and the Southern Pacific Ocean.
The Northern Rockhopper penguins prefer the islands in the South Atlantic Ocean such as Gough Island and the Tristan da Cunha. They also prefer the islands of Indian Ocean like Amsterdam Island and St. Paul Island.
The Eastern Rockhopper penguins enjoy spending their time in the Indo-Pacific islands of Prince Edward Island, Heard Island, Macquarie Island, Campbell Island, Antipodes Islands, and many others in the region.
The Western Rockhopper penguins prefer the southern tip of South America and the islands off the coast. They also prefer the waters surrounding the islands in the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean just like other Rockhopper penguins.
The Southern Rockhopper penguins can be found in the Faulkland Islands off the coast of Argentina and Chile as well as the islands that other Rockhopper penguins like to congregate in the Indian Ocean.
Unfortunately, their decline in habitat has placed them on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) list as being a vulnerable species because of their decreased population. Because Rockhopper penguins are opportunistic feeders, dining on small fish, squid, and crustaceans, their habitat has become polluted with human waste and debris. This causes their food supply to either diminish or become contaminated; making the penguins more vulnerable to death and disease. Conservation efforts are being done to try to increase the Rockhopper population but since they are so aggressive, this makes it difficult on scientists to study them much less breed them.

If your hair drier shrunk your head to the size of a grapefruit, you'd be astounded. If your wool pants shrank in the drier, you'd be angry but not amazed. How can clothing disobey the laws of common sense, and shrink in the laundry?
What Happens In The Laundry?
To understand why this happens, we need to take a closer look at the microscopic structure of natural fibers like wool.
Each thready strand you can see is composed of millions of long, tangled molecules called "polymer chains."
Microscopically, these start out coiled like miniature, tangled springs, something like a mass of tangled telephone cords. These curly molecules are stretched and straightened as the wool is carded and spun.
In your pants, the straightened polymer chains have a natural tendency to spring back to their original, tightly-coiled state. Fortunately for clothing manufacturers, it's not exactly easy for the natural fibers to do this.
In order to curl back up, they need a certain amount of energy. It's hard to picture this, because we're used to springs bouncing back to their original shape as soon as we take the tension off them.
These microscopic springs don't work that way though–they stay stretched out until they get a boost of energy to help them scrunch back up.
Hot Drier Or Hot Water
Running your pants through a hot drier, or washing them with hot water, can give them the energy they need to spring back. When this microscopic scrunching up happens all over the fabric, your pants shrink.

News Releases By Date
More Air Sampling Data from Hurricane Katrina Released
Release Date: 12/16/2005
Contact: Eryn Witcher, _PHONE_ / _EMAIL_
(12/16/05) EPA has posted additional air quality monitoring data for hurricane impacted areas in Louisiana (LA) and Mississippi (MS). Measurements for most pollutants reported were below EPA's health based screening levels for chemicals including arsenic and lead, asbestos; polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs); and volatile organic compounds. However, monitoring at certain sites showed elevated levels of acrolein (MS: Stennis Space Center, on Maple Street in Gulfport, Hospital Road in Pascagoula, LA: West Temple Place in Jefferson Parish), and formaldehyde (MS: Hospital Road in Pascagoula).
Acrolein can enter the air when organic matter such as trees and other plants are burned and when fuels such as gasoline and oil are burned. At the concentrations measured, temporary irritation of the eyes, nose and throat could have resulted.
Formaldehyde is formed during combustion in forest fires; wood stoves, cigarette smoke, power plants, and in vehicle exhaust. The largest sources of directly emitted formaldehyde are from combustion of fuels from mobile sources and process emissions from oil refineries. While such exposures would not be
acceptable on a regular basis extended over weeks at a time, isolated exposures to such concentrations are not believed to be associated with long-term health problems.

MEF for Beginner (Catalogs) - part 10
MEF for Beginner (Catalogs) - part 10
this is the 10th post of the MEF for Beginner series, the series TOC is available here.
this post will focus on Catalogs.
 MEF, export, import, importmany, extention, ioc, catalogs, composition
What is MEF Catalogs?
MEF container is using catalogs as its search area definition.
the catalog have instructions about where can MEF look for
the compose-able parts (import and export definitions).
in short catalogs are actually a discovery instruction.

Out of the box catalogs
MEF is shipping with the following out of the box catalogs:
Code Snippet
 1. var typeCat = new TypeCatalog(typeof(IFoo));
 2. var asmCat = new AssemblyCatalog(typeof(Program).Assembly);
 3. var dirCat = new DirectoryCatalog("US", "*.dll");
 4. var aggCat = new AggregateCatalog(typeCat, asmCat, dirCat);
 5. var container = new CompositionContainer(aggCat);
 6. container.Compose(...);
 - TypeCatalog (line 1) define that specific types should includes in the discovery process.
 - DirectoryCatalog (line 2) instruct the discovery process to search for compose-able pars
 within specific assembly.
 - DirectoryCatalog (line 3) is the most common used catalog, which instruct MEF to
 search for compose-able parts within assemblies under specific directory using search pattern ("*.dll").
 - AggregateCatalog (line 4) is aggregation of different catalogs instances.
 this catalog enable to add and remove catalogs at runtime.

UPDATE
Silverlight (CTP 9) introduce new catalog named DeploymentCatalog which should replace the PackageCatalog.
my next post will discuss more on this topic (soon).
Silverlight is adding the PackageCatalog which is searching within assemblies which include
in the package.
the following snippet demonstrate the Silverlight PackageCatalog:
Code Snippet
 1. var catalogs = new PackageCatalog();
 2. catalogs.AddPackage(Package.Current);
 3. var container = new CompositionContainer(catalogs);
 4. container.Compose(...);
as you can see the PackageCatalog can include multiple packages.

Summary
The catalogs use to define the search boundary of the composition container discovery process.
different catalogs can be use for different boundary ranges.

Samples
each of the previous parts of this series contains samples which is using catalogs

Stanley Steamer History: Francis and Freelan Stanley were twin brothers who started out making dry plates for photography, sold out to Eastman Kodak, and then built their first automobile in 1897. They were among the first auto makers in the US and sold their first design to John Walker of the Locomobile Company of America in 1899. The Stanleys opened the Stanley Motor Carriage Company in 1902 and built steam engines and steam driven automobiles until 1924, commonly known as "Stanley Steamers".
The first Stanley Steamers bodies were made of wood that sat on metal frames. The steam came from an upright boiler under the seat, on top of a gasoline or kerosene fired burner. Vertical copper tubes in the boiler transferred the heat from the fire to the water and pressure relief valves prevented blow outs. The drive mechanism amounted to two side by side cylinders and the pistons were pushed in both directions by the steam pressure. The power was transmitted by chain and sprockets from the crankshaft to a differential.
Originally the steam engines were located in the back of the car but later moved to the front and in 1915 condensers were added to increase the driving distance. In 1906 the Stanley Steamer was the fastest car in the world, traveling a mile in 28.2 seconds.
By the late 1910s gasoline engines were cheaper and more efficient than steam and sales fell, despite the Stanley's efforts at claiming that their engine was safer. By 1917 the "writing was on the wall" and the Stanleys sold their company to Prescott Warren, who finally gave up in 1924.

Kid-Friendly Sushi Rolls
kid-friendly japanese sushi rolls
Remember, practice makes perfect! If this is your first time making sushi, I suggest you start small. Cut the nori sheet in half, and use just one filling. As you feel more comfortable with the process, use the whole nori sheet, and more fillings. To get started, you need just a few ingredients like cucumber, smoked salmon, and sushi rice. You can make a sushi roll with any ingredient combination that you can think of.
For the Sushi Rice:
 - 2 rice cooker cups Japanese short-grain rice (or "sushi" rice)
 - 1 teaspoon sea salt
For the Filling:
 - ¼ cup sesame seeds
 - 1 small cooked and peeled sweet potato, sliced into strips
 - 1 cucumber, sliced into thin strips
 - 1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
 - 4 ounce packet smoked salmon
Hand-dipping Water:
 - ¼ cup water
 - 1 tablespoon vinegar
Everything Else:
 - 5 sheets nori (seaweed)
 - Soy sauce or tamari, for serving
 1. Follow the instructions on the rice package for cooking your rice, whether in a rice cooker or pot.
 2. Make the hand-dipping water by combining water and vinegar in a small bowl. Coat your hands with this water to prevent the rice from sticking.
 3. Place the nori sheet on a piece of parchment paper, with the longest side of the nori closest to you. The shiny side of the nori should be facing DOWN.
 4. Wet your hands and the inside of a 1-cup measuring cup with the vinegar water. Scoop a scant 1/2 cup of sushi rice into your hands. Place the rice on the nori and spread around, leaving 1 inch of space along the top edge of the nori. Wet your hands in the vinegar water if the rice starts to stick. Spread on more rice, if needed.
 5. Sprinkle the sesame seeds evenly over the rice. Then place the filling (sweet potato, cucumber, red pepper, and smoked salmon) in the middle of the rice. Each ingredient should have its own line.
 6. In one swift motion, roll the nori over each ingredient until your land right at the edge of the rice. With the parchment paper still around the roll, gently shape and tighten the roll into a square or round. Finally, remove the parchment paper and seal the edge of the nori with the water-vinegar solution. Squeeze and tighten the roll just one more time!
 7. To cut the sushi roll, wet your knife under running water or with a damp towel. Cut the roll in half in a sawing motion (push and pull). Wet the knife again and cut each half into 3 or 4 pieces.
 8. Serve with soy sauce or tamari, and your kids favorite steamed vegetables – Ayla and Cora love broccoli dunked in soy sauce!
Store leftover, unused nori in a sealed, air-tight bag, or else it will stale.

The sickle of the Egyptians resembled that in modern use. The ears of corn were cut with it near the top of the straw. There was also a sickle used for warlike purposes, more correctly, however, called a pruning-hook (Deut. 16:9; Jer. 50:16, marginal note, "scythe;" Joel 3:13; Mark 4:29).


DTAM
DTAM: Dense tracking and mapping in real-time. DTAM is a system for real-time camera tracking and reconstruction which relies not on feature extraction but dense, every pixel methods. As a single hand-held RGB camera flies over a static scene, we estimate detailed textured depth maps at selected keyframes to produce a surface patchwork with millions of vertices. We use the hundreds of images available in a video stream to improve the quality of a simple photometric data term, and minimise a global spatially regularised energy functional in a novel non-convex optimisation framework. Interleaved, we track the camera's 6DOF motion precisely by frame-rate whole image alignment against the entire dense model. Our algorithms are highly parallelisable throughout and DTAM achieves real-time performance using current commodity GPU hardware. We demonstrate that a dense model permits superior tracking performance under rapid motion compared to a state of the art method using features; and also show the additional usefulness of the dense model for real-time scene interaction in a physics-enhanced augmented reality application.
