I have an object I can rotate with a given torque. I would like to stop applying torque once I've reached a defined maximum rotational speed. The maximum rotational speed should be defined so that applying maximum torque will stop the rotation of the object within one rotation. If I know my torque and moment of inertia, how can I find the maximum rotational velocity to allow me to stop the object in one rotation?
Time is whatever is needed.
I've tried finding the angular acceleration required to stop the object, but that leaves me with the time variable. Of the equations I've tried, I'm left with a time variable as well as the maximum angular velocity.

I edited the question to give a little details about what I've tried. And it's not homework. More like hobby work. – Byte56 Jun 2 '13 at 22:09
For people with similar homework questions: try the equivalent exercise in linear motion. E.g. the direct equivalent here is, given a stopping length L and a force F, what is the maximum velocity v? You'll quickly spot that you need the second derivative a which you get from F=m*a. – MSalters Jun 3 '13 at 0:00

To stop the object you must do work. For a constant torque perpendicular to the moment arm, the work it does is equal to $\tau\cdot\Delta\theta$, and you want $\Delta\theta\leq2\pi$.
It should be obvious that the greatest angular velocity that a torque $\tau$ can stop will take it the full $2\pi$ radians to stop. In a rotating system, the rotational kinetic energy is given by $E_r=\frac12I\omega^2$ (a direct analogue of $E_K=\frac12mv^2$ ). Now consider work-energy equivalence.

Great, I should have taken the energy approach. Been too long since physics. Thanks. – Byte56 Jun 2 '13 at 22:29
No problem. J. Lowney has a full-detail solution above - you should check your algebra. A word of advice: on a problem like this, omit your direction signs and only consider magnitudes. Signs will only confuse you and freak you out when you end up with an imaginary angular velocity. – Zen Jun 2 '13 at 22:31
Building off of Zen's response, the energy will be $E_r = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2$. The work done in one rotation is $\tau\Delta\theta$. These two terms are equivalent in your case. I.e. you will have the following expression
$$ E_r = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = \tau_\text{max} \Delta\theta$$ $$ \omega_\text{max} = \sqrt{\frac{2\tau_\text{max}\Delta\theta}{I}}$$
You're treating your $\Delta\theta$ as $2\pi$, for one full rotation, hence:
$$\omega_\text{max} = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi\tau_\text{max}}{I}}$$
Where $I$ is the moment of inertia of your object. $\omega$ is the angular velocity. $\tau$ is your torque.

Thanks for furthering the equation J. – Byte56 Jun 2 '13 at 22:30
How would I go about expanding this to use multiple torque values at different positions around the object? – Byte56 Jun 2 '13 at 22:43
If you have a function $\tau(\theta)$ that gives you torque at every position around the object then simply replace the naive expression for work $W=\tau\Delta\theta$ by $$W=\int_0^{2\pi}\tau(\theta)d\theta$$ – Zen Jun 2 '13 at 22:56
Alternative solution:
I see you tried to do it by first finding angular acceleration $\alpha=\frac\tau I$ (where tau is your applied torque). This also works! However I suspect you got stuck at $$\alpha t=-\omega_{max}$$ This is perfectly understandable because t is somewhere between 0 and a full period (under the original angular velocity $\omega$ that is), but you don't know what t is.
You could try to set up some equations to solve simultaneously for $t$, but that's not necessary because you don't care about $t$, you only care about $\omega_{max}$ There is another equation you can use, the so-called "timeless equation": $$\omega_f^2=\omega_o^2+2\alpha\Delta\theta$$ where $\omega_f$ is final angular velocity, $\omega_o$ is initial angular velocity, $\alpha$ is angular acceleration, and $\Delta\theta$ is angular displacement (this again is a direct analogue of the linear kinematic equation $v^2=v_0^2+2a\Delta x$).
Let $\omega_f=0$ and $\omega_0=\omega_{max}$ (i.e., you start out at maximum velocity). By the same reasoning as above $\Delta\theta=2\pi$ and if you know $\tau$ and $I$ you can find $\alpha$. Then you have: $$0=\omega_{max}^2+2\alpha\cdot2\pi$$ $$\omega_{max}^2=2\alpha\cdot2\pi$$ (again, ignore signs) $$\omega_{max}=\sqrt{4\alpha\pi}$$ which is the same as above, since $\alpha=\frac \tau I$

Day of Mourning
Why is April 28th a Day of Mourning?
Every year on April 28, people across the country gather to light candles and wear ribbons as they pay their respects and remember the thousands of men and women who have been killed, injured, or suffered illness as a result of work-related incidents. We also honour the families, coworkers, and friends whose lives have been significantly impacted by these tragedies. April 28th was chosen to reflect the anniversary of the day Ontario passed the Workers' Compensation Act in 1914.
How do unions improve workplace health and safety?
Unions stand up for the health and safety of everyone who works for a living. We work with employers to improve working conditions. Unions work with governments to improve workplace health and safety standards and pass laws to punish employers who put lives at risk for their own gain. We can't bring back those who have died, but we are working hard to make workplaces safer for today. By working together – with employers, unions, workers, and our health and safety partners, we can work towards every worker returning home at the end of the day safe and sound.
UFCW Canada encourages every worker to make workplace health and safety a personal priority and help spread the word that workers have the right to refuse unsafe work.
On April 28, let us remember those who have been injured or killed on the job, and keep them in our thoughts. Let us honour the memory of those killed or injured on the job, and never forget the importance of our commitment to keep workers safe.
To commemorate the National Day of Mourning, UFCW Canada has developed a Day of Mourning poster available for download in both English and French. See below the article image for different formats.

August 9, 2011 > Slight decrease in number of homeless in county
Slight decrease in number of homeless in county
Unemployment continued to be cited as main cause of homelessness
Submitted By Robert Dolci and Jessica Scheiner
According to a report released the week beginning July 25, 2011, by Santa Clara County, on any given day 7,045 persons are homeless in the county compared to the 7,086 homeless individuals counted in 2009. However, as the economy continues to struggle, it is likely there will be an increase in the estimated number of residents who will become homeless at some point during 2011, even if only briefly.
Additionally, the number of long-term homeless (persons with many or long episodes of homelessness) increased from 2,270 in 2009 to 2,520 this year.
The biennial county-wide homeless census and survey was conducted by Santa Clara County in collaboration with the county's 15 cities and public and private partners. The census and survey are conducted to better understand the situation of the county's homeless residents and develop informed strategies to end homelessness. The Housing 1000 Campaign, for instance, seeks to identify the most vulnerable homeless individuals and help them secure permanent, supportive housing.
As the largest city in the county, San Jose has 57.3 percent of the county's homeless population. The cities of Gilroy, Santa Clara and Sunnyvale have the second (7.0 percent), third (5.3 percent), and fourth (5.6 percent) highest numbers of homeless residents, respectively.
During the nights of the census, 1,876 of the county's homeless persons were in a shelter or transitional housing. The most frequent reasons cited by those surveyed for not being sheltered was bed limitations at shelters (55 percent), alcohol/drug problems (18 percent), an inability to follow shelter rules (13 percent) and the absence of identification (8 percent). Approximately 40 percent of the 5,169 persons without shelter live on the street. The remainder live in cars, vans, RVs, motels, or buildings and facilities not meant for human habitation.
To obtain a better understanding of the characteristics of the county's homeless residents, 1,014 were interviewed between January 27, 2011 and March 26, 2011.
According to the survey results, the most frequent reason cited for persons becoming homeless was unemployment (27 percent) compared with 30 percent in 2009. Approximately 11 percent of those surveyed were currently employed - 9 percent were employed full-time and 2 percent were employed part-time. Thirty-nine percent (39 percent) of those surveyed cited the absence of a permanent address as an obstacle to securing employment, while 36 percent cited the need for employment training.
The report estimates that on any given night, Santa Clara County has a homeless veteran population of 667 persons, or 10 percent of the total nightly homeless count. This is a significant decrease from the 866 homeless veterans estimate in 2009.
Finally, the report indicates that on any given night, 874 persons in families are homeless in the county - a decrease of 14 percent since 2009.

Design of magneto-rheological brake for optimum dimension
- 160 Downloads
Online control of braking performance of magneto-rheological (MR) brake by bridling the apparent viscosity of MR fluid and by amending magnetic field is considered as an effective and smart option to replace the conventional disc brake. The magnetic field procreated by electromagnet in MR brake is reliant on dimensions and material properties of MR brake (casing, rotor and MR fluid region). Extensive works have been reported on enhancing the magnetic properties of MR fluid to achieve maximum braking performance; however, scarce works are available that reflects that the dimensions of MR brake influence the braking performance. Prior works on MR brakes focus on designing for meticulous outer dimensions of brakes, and thus, their results find little utility to a new designer. Therefore, the objective of the present work is to propose a methodology to determine the dimension of MR brake for a given outer dimensions, which shall provide maximum braking performance. The, braking performance is evaluated by assessing the effective torque and brake density. Magneto-static analysis using ANSYS is employed for determining the magnetic field in the MR region, and thereafter, the braking torque is calculated. From the obtained results, curve fit equations are proposed to estimate the values of (i) MR brake casing thickness, (ii) height of the MR brake to rotor, (iii) thickness of core, and (iv) thickness of MR fluid region, for achieving maximum torque. To validate the proposed methodology, MR brake with two different electromagnets and rotors is developed. The static performance of MR brake is evaluated by measuring the braking torque for different currents using a torque wrench and the dynamic performance of the MR brakes is performed on an MR brake test setup. The dynamic performance is evaluated by measuring viscous torque. Finally, the comparisons of the theoretical and experimental results are performed and the obtained results are presented.

Communities across Africa are fighting to protect their culture, lands, and resources. But despite their peaceful efforts, they continue to face violence and abuse. Their struggles include abduction, imprisonment, torture, and death.
To document and raise awareness about such realities, and build resilience to such threats some communities have turned to video for change. And although the use of such methodologies has been growing, further strengthening and collaboration are needed to realize its true potential.
To address this, InsightShare, with the support of EngageMedia, Video Volunteers, and Witness, is hosting the 2019 Video4Change Grassroots Gathering outside CapeTown, South Africa. This October, grassroots communities, African video practitioners, and Video4Change Network trainers and facilitators will work together to:
- Facilitate discussions that build and strengthen alliances, learning from each other's contexts, experiences, and expertise
- Foster an understanding of human rights, land rights, and climate change as shared issues that are best approached in a collaborative, co-creative way
- Integrate traditional and cultural approaches with Video4Change tools and strategies, combining the best aspects of both to come up with the optimal framework
- Design practical plans to address the impacts of climate change and the environmental crisis
The event intends to support the launch of the Pan-African Living Cultures Alliance (PALCA). An indigenous-led initiative, PALCA aims to holistically address the protection of indigenous natural and cultural resources across Africa using Video4Change approaches such as Participatory Video and the Rights-Based Approach.
The participants will learn from an extensive roster of proven models and methodologies:
- Video Volunteers' Correspondents Network
- InsightShare's participatory video model
- WITNESS' video advocacy and video as evidence
- InformAction and Cartara's use of community screenings, documenting of Human Rights Abuse, digital security, and digital learning

Facts About Grany Smith Apple Trees
A Granny Smith apple tree produces apples that are quite tart. Apples grown on a Granny Smith apple tree are different from most other types of apples because Granny Smith apples always stay green and do not change color to indicate ripening. Granny Smith apple trees are quite easy to grow and are not overly susceptible to disease or infestation.
The Granny Smith apple tree is native to Australia. The Granny Smith apple tree dates back to 1868 to a chance seedling that was discovered by a woman named Maria Ann Smith. This is the origin of the Granny Smith name. A chance seedling is a term that defines a plant species was discovered by chance. It is thought that the Granny Smith seed is a descendant of the European Wild Apple tree.
- A Granny Smith apple tree produces apples that are quite tart.
- The Granny Smith apple tree dates back to 1868 to a chance seedling that was discovered by a woman named Maria Ann Smith.
Uses of Apples
Granny Smith apples are considered all-purpose apples. They have an even green skin and have crisp and firm flesh. Granny Smith apples are eating apples as well as cooking and baking apples. Granny Smith apples can be made into applesauce, apple pies, and many other apple cobblers and cakes. Granny Smith apples are also desirable for their long shelf life. They will stay crisp for much longer than other varieties of apples.
Granny Smith apple trees are not of the self pollinating variety. In order to grow Granny Smith apple trees, an additional apple tree of another kind must also be grown within close proximity to the Granny Smith tree to enable pollination and fruit production in the Granny Smith tree. Some recommended pollinator apple trees include Golden Delicious, Gala, and Fuji apple trees. A nearby pollinator tree that is fertile will enable the Granny Smith apple tree to bear Granny Smith apples.
- Granny Smith apples are considered all-purpose apples.
- Granny Smith apple trees are not of the self pollinating variety.
Granny Smith apple trees can be successfully grown in zones six, seven, and eight. They must have at least six hours of sunlight each day. To encourage the most fruit production, a Granny Smith apple tree must be pruned regularly for proper branching. When the Granny Smith apple tree is pruned in this way, it will be healthier, will have stronger limbs, and will bear more fruit earlier in the season. Granny Smith apple trees that are pruned properly can live more than 50 years.
The Granny Smith apple tree is able to grow in many different types of soil. These apple trees are considered one of the fastest growing apple trees. After the initial season for proper establishment of the tree, the apples from a Granny Smith apple tree can be harvested. The Granny Smith apples are usually ready to be picked by November and these apples will stay fresh and flavorful into the next spring.

The Dutch Weed Burger
The transition from an animal protein based to a more vegetable protein based diet is crucial to ensure the availability of sufficient food in the future in a sustainable way. The Dutch Weed Burger addressed this challenge by developing a 100 percent plant-powered hamburger, inspired by the combination of seaweed and algae with plants as the new superfoods. Researchers from Wageningen University have estimated that large-scale cultivation of sea weed can help solve the global food supply problem in a sustainable way. Its cultivation requires neither fresh water nor agricultural land and can help reduce acidification of the oceans.


Vaping Relavant
 - Proper Tips for Vaping Outside During the Winter
 Proper Tips for Vaping Outside During the Winter
 If you're new to vaping, you probably aren't familiar with the struggle vapers face during the winter months. In addition to having to brave the cold every so often to enjoy your vape, the drop in temperature also complicates the mechanics of your device. Below are some helpful tips for vaping this winter.
 Winter Vaping Outdoors Tip #1: Keep Your E-Liquid at Room Temperature
 While stepping outside for a quick vape won't ruin your e-juice, prolonged exposure to the cold could cause the liquid to thicken. Avoid this by limiting the device's time in the cold or by keeping it warm in your hand. Otherwise you run the risk of not only thickening your liquid, but also damaging your coil.
 Winter Vaping Outdoors Tip #2: Protect Your Equipment from Moisture
 Remember that your vape is an electronic device and that, like all electronics, it doesn't mix well with moisture. By simply moving from the warm interior of your home to the freezing cold outside, condensation can form on the most sensitive parts of your vape. Take the necessary precautions by packing it in a protective carrying case to keep the moisture away.
 Winter Vaping Outdoors Tip #3: Limit Your Devices Exposure to Freezing Temperatures
 In addition to damaging your hardware, freezing temperatures can also do a number on your device's battery life. When batteries are exposed to the cold, it can cause lithium inside to create plating over the electrodes, thereby causing your device's battery to overheat or charge at a slower rate. If you absolutely must vape outside in the cold this winter, allow your device to acclimate to the warmth of your home before charging it.
 Final Winter Vaping Outdoors Tip: Avoid the Metal Drip Tip
 If you're a fan of metal tips, you may want to consider a nice plastic tip this winter. It could spare you from a rather painful realization. When freezing metal comes in contact with something warm and wet, it will very likely stick to it. The same principle applies when your mouth touches a metal tip of a vape. If you're not into plastic drip tips, you can always spring for one of the wooden or glass variety.
 Of course, you could always choose to vape inside your home to avoid exposing your device (and yourself) to the bitter cold.
 - What Makes A Cheap Vaping Coil Well...Cheap?
 What Makes A Cheap Vaping Coil Well...Cheap
 Vaping, atomizing, and electronic cigarettes are a relatively new yet revolutionary concept in self-medication practice. The benefits to vaping and using these products are expertly verified and quite varied as well. Within these various tools of the trade however lie crucial components, necessary to the act of mechanical vaping – our most beloved activity.
 Importance of the Coil
 Perhaps the most important of all of these components is the coil. This central part of the vaping mechanism is single-handedly responsible for the device's changeover of liquid to gas, and the subsequent presence of a usable vapor. This is true regardless of the coil class - MOD coils, portable vaporizer coils, or e-cig coils.
 Because of their crucial role to the entirety of the vaping experience, coils have thus become a matter of elevated interest. Particularly, there has been much more curiosity as to how these coils differ at different quality levels as well as how they function in the first place. To make it all easier to understand, let's break it down to the basics. The following may come as a bit of a science lesson to some, but we'll keep it brief, explaining the function of the coil as well as providing some basic insights into electricity itself.
 How It Works
 First, some basics about electricity will really help one to understand their coil and its quality. Electricity flows very well through particular metals. In other metals however, it struggles to flow as well and thus encounters what is referred to as "resistance". Resistance can be terrible in some applications. Here though, the concept of resistance is actually necessary.
 This is where the coil comes in. The coil acts as this aforementioned, metallic path of travel for the electricity generated by the device's battery. The electricity naturally wants to flow across the body of this part whenever the battery sends power to it. However, due to its finely crafted, intentionally resistant composition, the electricity must struggle to run through it.
 The result here is a controlled and focused heat point – a super-heated and very focused point on the coil in which this reaction takes place. Subsequently, the vaporizer's liquid solution is pulled across this finely focused heat source. This then creates the inhalable vapor ultimately sought.
 The Effect of Coil Quality
 As in all manufactured wares, costs are a big governor over quality in product when it comes to vaping coils. Regardless of the type of vaporizing mechanism, the core innerworkings of the coil are much the same. Variations in quality however change everything.
 How exactly does quality differ between coils? In most cases, cost-control dictates the type of metals and casting processes used in the creation of a coil. Overall quality in design is also touched by the consideration.
 In a low quality coil, the company has likely saved money on the mass production of its coil via the use of cheaper metals, manufacturing processes, and designs. The result is a coil that does not employ the optimal metal compositions or design for the optimal electrical resistance and resulting vaporization. Perhaps then the coil dies quicker because the metal couldn't withstand the constant and demanding electron travels across it. Maybe the coil only works intermittently, a sign of troubled travel of electricity through the cheaply-made design. Regardless of the symptom, coil quality greatly dictates effective and reliable vaporization in addition to actual occurrences of bad symptoms.
 These are the basics of the concept of the coil as well as the effects of quality on these crucial parts. Cheap coils will typically produce equivalent results while quality ones will do the same. To the benefit of the patron though, the wide variety in available choices here is always a plus.
 Whether you run a dripper or a tank, a regulated variable voltage/variable wattage device is a valuable addition to every vaper's arsenal. These devices give users the ability to adjust the wattage in order to tailor the heat and vapor output of the unit to their preference. Additionally, regulated devices eliminate voltage drop which plagues mechanical units.
 The Chain Reaction is a 50 Watt 26650 regulated device made by Amigo Itsuwa which features a durable yet sleek design. The attractive styling boasts a durable carbon fiber battery tube cover which compliments the stainless steel components and protects the copper battery tube and red bronze contacts. The OLED display is easy to read, and the software is intuitive.
 The device operates in the manner that all experienced vapers have come to expect: utilizing a power button which doubles as an on/off switch and two buttons for wattage adjustment from 7 to 50 Watts. The buttons offer satisfying tactile feedback and are of durable proven design. Disassembly of the unit is achieved by first unscrewing the bottom cap and removing the battery. The carbon fiber covered copper tube can then be unscrewed from the rest of the device, although this would be unnecessary for any purpose other than deep cleaning of the unit.
 Although the device will fire as low as 0.3 Ohms, the sweet spot for this device is between 0.5 and 0.8 Ohms for RDA's and will handle any sub Ohm tank currently on the market utilizing coils in the correct range. The Chain Reaction features an overload protection circuit and will also measure the resistance of the build placed on the sturdy non-adjustable 510 connection preventing any shorts or undue stress to the battery. The sensible range, combined with the 26650 battery, provides an all-day vape which will satisfy even the most habitual vaper's.
 The 26650 powered regulated devices offer the experienced vaper a sensible go-to device which will meet the needs of these advanced users. In the hands of an experienced user, these devices are safe and reliable when compared to the outdated technology previously available. As always, battery safety should be of paramount concern to any ambassador of the vape community in order to project a positive image of our hobby.
 - Key Differences Between Internal and External Battery MODs
 Key Differences Between Internal and External Battery MODs
 MODs have become all the rage and are used by millions of vapers as the next level in the world of vaping. These devices are available in different brands and they use different types of batteries. A MOD is the modification of the device that allows increased or decreased vapor production, battery life, and voltage usage. The main drive of battery operated MODs are to provide heat to the liquid solution, which comprises of vegetable & propylene glycol and nicotine. These devices are offered with diverse battery types and functions.
 Types of Internal and External Batteries
 The primary differences between internal and external batteries are internal batteries are built into devices and external batteries are removable. Internal battery type, lithium polymer, also know also known as LiPo is permanently installed in a MOD and isn't removable. The device must be thrown away when its natural life usage has expired. To recharge the battery, the vaper is advised to use a computer's USB port that provides additional safety features compared to a wall socket.
 External battery MODs are replaceable and available in Lithium IMR or Lithium Manganese (Li-Mn), IMR/Hybrid, and ICR Lithium Ion (Li-Ion). Lithium IMR is considered the safest

Salar de Uyuni Magical realism in the Bolivian Altiplano.
Salar de Uyuni (or Salar de Tunupa) is the world's largest salt flat at 10,582 square kilometers (4,086 sq mi).
It is located in the Potosí and Oruro departments in southwest Bolivia, near the crest of the Andes, and is at an elevation of 3,656 meters (11,995 ft) above mean sea level.
The Salar was formed as a result of transformations between several prehistoric lakes. It is covered by a few meters of salt crust, which has an extraordinary flatness with the average altitude variations within one meter over the entire area of the Salar.
The crust serves as a source of salt and covers a pool of brine, which is exceptionally rich in lithium. It contains 50 to 70% of the world's lithium reserves, which is in the process of being extracted. The large area, clear skies and the exceptional flatness of the surface make the Salar an ideal object for calibrating the altimeters of Earth observation satellites.
The Salar serves as the major transport route across the Bolivian Altiplano and is a major breeding ground for several species of pink flamingos. Salar de Uyuni is also a climatological transitional zone, for towering tropical cumulus congestus and cumulus incus clouds that form in the eastern part of the massive salt flat during the summer, cannot permeate beyond the salt flat's considerably more arid western edges, near the Chilean border and the Atacama Desert.
The geological history of the Salar is associated with a sequential transformation between several vast lakes. Some 30,000–42,000 years ago, the area was part of a giant prehistoric lake, Lake Minchin. Its age was estimated from radiocarbon dating of shells from outcropping sediments and carbonate reefs and varies between reported studies.
Lake Minchin (named after the Juan B. Minchin of Oruro) later transformed into paleolake Tauca having a maximal depth of 140 meters (460 ft), and an estimated age of 13,000–18,000 or 14,900–26,100 years depending on the source.


Zero to Photon:
SDController.v: a Verilog SD card controller
2024 . 4 . 24
Photon stores its photos on a 128 GB SD card. When capturing a photo, it's first written to SDRAM, and then transferred from SDRAM to the SD card via SDController.v.
SDController.v should work with any FPGA, but it's been specifically tested and used with the ICE40 and the Yosys/icestorm toolchain.
SDController.v Overview
SDController.v is a Verilog module that provides an interface for reading from / writing to SD cards via the 4-wire SDIO interface.
Photon uses a 102 MHz clock and the SDR104 access mode with SDController.v, resulting in a read/write throughput of 48 MB/sec.
In theory SDController.v can support a faster clock, but the signal integrity of the ICE40 IO pads degrades significantly beyond 102 MHz when wired to an SD card.
SDController.v Interface
SDController.v groups its IO signals into eight ports, described below.
Config Port
The Config port controls the clock speed, clock delay, and pin drive mode of SDController.v:
input wire config_trigger,
input wire config_action,
input wire config_clkSpeed,
input wire[3:0] config_clkDelay,
input wire config_pinMode,
 - input config_trigger: a toggle that initiates a configuration change
 - input config_action: controls what action is performed when config_trigger is toggled. There are only two options: Reset and Init.
 The Reset action resets SDController.v to its default state (clock speed = slow, clock delay = none, pin mode = open drain).
 The Init action configures SDController.v to use the values from config_* inputs, described below.
 - input config_clkSpeed: controls whether the slow clock (400 kHz) or the fast clock (configurable frequency; Photon uses 102 MHz) is used.
 The slow clock is needed for SD card initialization; once initialized, the fast clock is enabled for maximum throughput.
 - input config_clkDelay: controls the delay for the clock signal that's output to the SD card.
 This permits dynamic delay adjustment to account for FPGA signal delays.
 - input config_pinMode: controls whether SDController.v drives its IOs as push-pull or open-drain.
 For SD card initialization, open-drain IOs are used because SD cards expect 3.3V signalling at 400 kHz.
 After SD card initialization, push-pull IOs are used for 1.8V signalling with the fast clock.
Command Port
The Command port is used to issue commands to the SD card, such as CMD18 / READ_MULTIPLE_BLOCK and CMD25 / WRITE_MULTIPLE_BLOCK:
input wire cmd_trigger,
input wire[47:0] cmd_data,
input wire[1:0] cmd_respType,
input wire[1:0] cmd_datInType,
output wire cmd_done,
 - input cmd_trigger: a toggle that notifies SDController.v to initiate the command; other cmd_* inputs must be settled when cmd_trigger toggles
 - input cmd_data: the entire 48-bit command; the CRC7 portion is automatically overwritten with the proper CRC
 - input cmd_respType: the response type: none, 48-bit, or 136-bit
 - input cmd_datInType: whether and how the DatIn state machine should trigger as a result of the command
 There are three options: don't trigger DatIn, trigger DatIn for a 512x1 response (eg CMD6 response), or trigger DatIn for a 4096xN response (eg mass data read response)
 - output cmd_done: a toggle that signals when the command is finished sending
Response Port
The Response port contains the SD card's response for the previous command sent with the Command port:
output wire resp_done,
output wire[135:0] resp_data,
output wire resp_crcErr,
 - output resp_done: a toggle signalling that the response has been received from the SD card; indicates that the other resp_* signals are valid
 - output resp_data: the 48-bit or 136-bit response (depending on the original command) from the SD card
 - output resp_crcErr: whether there was a CRC7 error in the response received from the SD card
DatOut / DatOutRead Ports
The DatOut / DatOutRead ports are used to perform mass writes to the SD card. Data is read from the client's registers, and then flows out of SDController.v to the SD card.
input wire datOut_trigger,
output wire datOut_done,
output wire datOut_crcErr,

output wire datOutRead_clk,
input wire datOutRead_ready,
output wire datOutRead_trigger,
input wire[15:0] datOutRead_data,
input wire datOutRead_done,
 - input datOut_trigger: toggle that starts the DatOut state machine
 - output datOut_done: signals that the DatOut state machine is finished
 - output datOut_crcErr: signals whether a CRC error occurred during the DatOut state machine
 - output datOutRead_clk: the clock for the DatOutRead port
 - input datOutRead_ready: signals when another SD block is available to be written; only checked at SD block boundaries (ie every 512 bytes)
 - output datOutRead_trigger: signals to the client that datOutRead_data should be updated with the next 16-bit word
 - input datOutRead_data: the next 16-bit word that should be written to the SD card
 - input datOutRead_done: signals that there's no more data to be written; only checked if datOutRead_ready=0
DatIn / DatInWrite Ports
The DatIn / DatInWrite ports are used to perform mass reads from the SD card. Data flows from the SD card into SDController.v, and is then written to the client's registers.
output wire datIn_done,
output wire datIn_crcErr,
output wire datInWrite_rst,
output wire datInWrite_clk,
input wire datInWrite_ready,
output wire datInWrite_trigger,
output wire[15:0] datInWrite_data,
 - output datIn_done: toggle that transitions after each SD block is written
 - output datIn_crcErr: signals whether a CRC error occurred during the DatIn state machine
 - output datInWrite_rst: a single-clock pulse that occurs when the DatIn state machine is started; can be used to reset client logic
 - output datInWrite_clk: the clock for the DatInWrite port
 - input datInWrite_ready: signals when another SD block can be accepted by the client; only checked at SD block boundaries (ie every 512 bytes)
 - output datInWrite_trigger: signals to the client that datInWrite_data contains the next 16-bit word
 - output datInWrite_data: the next 16-bit word that was read from the SD card
Status Port
The Status port contains a single output signal:
output wire status_dat0Idle
 - output status_dat0Idle: indicates the current state of the DAT[0] SD card signal
 This is used by clients to poll the SD card for completion of various operations, such as CMD11 / VOLTAGE_SWITCH and CMD12 / STOP_TRANSMISSION.
Voltage Switching
Traditional SD card initialization requires signalling to operate at 3.3V. Once initialized, the signalling voltage is typically dropped to 1.8V to support a higher clock frequency and data throughput. (Newer SD cards support LVS initialization which allows signalling to start at 1.8V, but many SD cards don't support LVS.)
This voltage-switching behavior is a pain to accomplish with FPGAs, but is possible with some discrete logic. Photon uses the following circuit to allow for low-speed (400 kHz) open-drain 3.3V signalling, in addition to high-speed (102 MHz) push-pull 1.8V signalling:
Photon's SD card 3.3V / 1.8V voltage-switching circuit
For SD card initialization, Photon lets SD_PULLUP_1V8_EN_ float to 1 (by way of the pull-up resistor), which sets the source voltage for the six 20k pull-up resistors to 3.3V, allowing for 3.3V open-drain signalling. (Photon actually uses 2.8V as the high voltage, but that's within the acceptable range for SD card 3.3V signalling.)
After SD card initialization, Photon drives SD_PULLUP_1V8_EN_ to 0, which sets the source voltage for the six 20k pull-ups to 1.8V


How MongoDB balance your data?
migration_steps3We have already studied the chunk concept What is a MongoDB chunk? and also how MongoDB splits it when grows beyond the maximum size established by default Four steps to split a MongoDB chunk. At this post we are going to study the steps that MongoDB follows to balance our cluster.
The first thing we must know is that we choose the data to balance in our shards. So, we decide the collections to divide. You can read at this post Two steps to shard a MongoDB collection how to split a collection.
The balancing process does not disturb the normal cluster work, it is a background process. There is only one migration at a time, per cluster, in order to do not overload it. Therefore, only two shards will be working on (its primaries). If we do not change the by default chunk size, 64MB, this is the maximum amount of data that MongoDB will migrate at a time. This is a size so big so that there will not be too much migrations, and at the same time, it is little in order to do not overload our database.
Balancing round
Any of the mongos can begin a round balancing, but only can be an active one at a time. So, the mongos must check this through the locks collection at the configdb.
Only when the value equals 0 the mongos can begin the balancing round.
Is the cluster balanced?
The mongos checks the number of chunks per shard and decides whether the collection/collections is balanced. At this post What is a MongoDB chunk? I explain how MongoDB determines this. When the collection is not balanced the balancer will move the necessary chunks to get it. When the migration has been finished the mongos will update the locks collection and the round balancer will be finished.
Does the chunk need to be split?
Ok, the collection is not well balanced. The mongos will choose a chunk to move it to another shard. How MongoDB chooses this chunk is studied at this post What is a MongoDB chunk?
Before moving the chunk the mongos asks the shard which owns it (shard FROM) if this is too big and must be split.
The balancing begins
The mongos orders to the shard FROM that begins the transfer, but before beginning this shard makes sure that it is not removing data from a chunk previously migrated.
Please, read this chunk
The shard FROM asks shard TO (shard chunk destination) to read the chosen chunk to been migrated.
The transfer begins
The chunk belongs to shard FROM until the transfer will be finished. Until then, there can be write operations on this chunk that must also be transferred to shard TO.
The transfer ends
The FROM TO (Alex, thanks for your input) shard updates the chunk migration at the config servers.
The transferred data is deleted
The shard FROM begins to delete the data that has been moved.
The cache is refreshed
The mongos refreshes its cache. The remaining mongos will look for this data at the shard FROM and will get an STALE CONFIG EXCEPTION. This will cause them to read the metadata at the config servers for refreshing its cache. The clients will not realize it.
I wish that this post helps you to understand how MongoDB chooses the chunks to move between shards and the steps it follows for balancing the cluster. Please, if you read something wrong or something is omitted do not hesitate to use the comments. We will learn each other.

Quebec Pork Industry In Need Of Overhaul
by 5m Editor
15 March 2007, at 4:42pm
MONTREAL - The government should not increase public assistance to the pork sector but instead should encourage the industry to reorganize itself so as to raise productivity.
In an Economic Note released today by the Montreal Economic Institute, associate researcher Eric Grenon states that "reform is made necessary by the high and recurrent costs to taxpayers of aid to pork producers and by the serious deficiencies in the aid models that are applied."
An industry in crisis
In recent months, major problems in the Quebec pork industry have been making headlines. Many causes can explain this crisis, especially the higher Canadian dollar, industry cycles, increased rates of illness, a lack of competitiveness among slaughterhouses, environmental standards, and so on.
Against a background of greater worldwide competition and market integration in the North American pork industry, the production, slaughter and processing of pork products in Quebec is under threat, in particular by the U.S. industry that has made use of the last 20 years to consolidate and restructure.
A commission on the future of Quebec agriculture and agri-food, now starting a consultation tour, should be looking into the effectiveness of current public involvement in upholding and protecting farm income. The commission should ask if it is worth maintaining the Farm Income Stabilization Insurance program (known by the French acronym ASRA). With twice Ontario's subsidy level, Quebec is among the provinces with the most heavily subsidized agriculture and agri-food sectors.
The Farm Income Stabilization Insurance program
ASRA seeks to guarantee a positive net annual income to Quebec farm businesses. Seen as a pillar of the Quebec model in agriculture, the program was established in 1978 as an insurance policy against market risks. The pork industry receives substantial financial support from governments. From 1978 to 2006, total compensation paid through ASRA to the pork sector reached $1.84 billion. In the last 10 years, subsidies came to an average of $96 million per year. In the 29 years the program has existed, there have been only eight years without subsidies to the pork industry.
The program's weaknesses
The industry's difficulties are due more to structural than to cyclical factors. ASRA also makes the pork sector more fragile by keeping it from adapting to market realities. Its insurance mechanism guarantees all pork producers that they will be compensated for the difference between the market price and production costs, calculated using a theoretical model. Producers thus have less incentive to cut costs, to observe market signals and to remain competitive on domestic and export markets. ASRA impairs efforts to raise productivity and efficiency, helping maintain high production costs compared to competitors. It holds back industry consolidation by keeping unprofitable farms in business, with viability and business performance not among the eligibility criteria for the main programs. Another weakness of ASRA is that it calculates total compensation based on a theoretical model of a specialized farm. Since the 1990s, the Quebec auditor general has questioned the effectiveness and performance of programs based on this sort of production cost estimate. It was shown that taxpayers are contributing millions of dollars too much to producers because of these models. The auditor general has also challenged the updating of these models of specialized farm and has cast doubt as to whether they are representative.
The challenges of the pork industry
The competitiveness of the Quebec pork industry is fragile and is threatened by growing worldwide competition, both from traditional commercial rivals such as the United States and from emerging countries such as Brazil. ASRA has major flaws that get in the way of building a pork industry that can run profitably on a stable basis and be truly competitive in the long term on foreign markets.

Operating a daycare service is an excellent means of supporting your community. In light of the COVID-19 crisis, your contributions to society are more critical than ever. That said, running a daycare comes with tremendous obligations. Remaining financially viable plays a major role in your ability to provide high quality, reliable child care for your customers. For this reason, monitoring the liability-related expenses of your business is necessary.
Explaining Liability-Related Expenses
Liabilities are financial obligations you incur during the course of your facility's operations. They also include legal financial debts.
Most daycare centers have short term liabilities (12 months or less) and long term liabilities (12 months or longer). Despite being defined as an obligation, liabilities also include former business transactions that result in economic benefits in the future.
Recorded on the right side of the balance sheet, liabilities include items such as:
- Accrued expenses
- Unearned premiums
- Deferred revenues
- Accounts payable
Various Costs From Startup to Fully Operational
Operational costs should reflect everything that goes into managing your daycare facility. The average capital needed to launch a successful childcare center ranges between $10,000 and $50,000.
For those taking over an existing child care facility, a complete renovation may cost an average of $55,000 and up, according to Chron. In addition to this, educational supplies and equipment may run above $5,000, and classroom supplies may cost over $60 per child. Other common liability-related expenses include legal representation, marketing, insurance, equipment, as well as payroll — bringing potential startup costs to nearly $100,000 or more.
Possible Liability-Related Expenses in Light of COVID-19
Childcare facilities that remain open face some difficult challenges. To date, at least four states are providing free childcare services to children of grocery store workers, emergency medical staff, health professionals, and law enforcement. Meanwhile, states like Ohio will soon allow daycare centers and churches to apply to open short-term childcare facilities for children of emergency workers.
However, each center must grapple with a number of issues like higher staff-to-child ratios resulting from the need to hire additional staff. Daycare centers also face potential legal liabilities if children or staff contract coronavirus.
In light of this, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued Supplemental Guidance covering a range of child care programs. In the CDC's Supplemental Guidance, keeping all surfaces clean is critical. The new health directives may lead to many facilities hiring additional cleaning staff, thus increasing their payroll obligations during a time of social and economic instability.
Liability-Related Expenses Pertaining to ADA Compliance
If you run a child care facility, you will likely care for children with special needs.
In such a scenario, your liability-related expenses may increase, depending on the child's needs. The Americans with Disabilities Act requires most child care providers, regardless of size or number of employees, to comply with Title III of the ADA. In addition, many small, home-based centers will also have to comply with the provisions of Title III.
The only exception to this rule "is child care centers that are actually run by religious entities such as churches, mosques, or synagogues. Activities controlled by religious organizations are not covered by Title III."
In accordance with the ADA, childcare centers may have to pay for special renovations to make facilities more accessible to children with special needs.
The Child Care and Development Fund: A Reliable Buffer During Downturns
During an economic downturn, the Child Care and Development Fund may prove critical to both daycares and parents. This program provides assistance to low-income families who need child care. The Child Care and Development Fund webpage states:
"In order to qualify for this benefit program, you must be a parent or primary caregiver responsible for children under the age of 13 years of age, or under 19 if incapable of self-care or under court supervision who needs assistance paying for childcare; and must also characterize your financial situation as low income or very low income. In order to qualify, you must also be either employed or in some States enrolled in a training or education program."
Daycare facilities wishing to become an affiliate of the Child Care and Development Fund must adhere to the Federal Affiliate Policy. This type of government assistance program guarantees a steady income — even during economic downturns. To qualify, daycare centers must comply with a set of federally-mandated "best business practices."
In addition, qualifying as an affiliate also requires close monitoring of liability-related finances. The United States government wants to be sure that funds are not misappropriated. This means program affiliates will be subject to random audits.
Daycares should also take advantage of the numerous local, state, and federal tax benefits available (dependent on location). Monitoring your liability-related expenses will also ensure that you don't miss out on valuable tax deductions. To help with this, Prime Child Care offers a complete suite of configurable reports to track your center's financial health.
$2 Trillion Stimulus Package Includes Relief for the Childcare Industry
On March 27, 2020, President Donald Trump signed a $2.2 trillion stimulus package into law. Specifically, the CARES Act allocates $3.5 billion for the Child Care and Development Block Grant program. Funds will help childcare centers stay in business and continue paying their staff. The law also provides $750 million to Head Start programs to meet the coronavirus-related needs of children and their families.
The most critical portion of the Cares Act centers on the Paycheck Protection Program. Funding will help daycare centers meet liability-related expenses (rent, mortgage, utilities, payroll). These federally guaranteed loans don't require collateral or personal guarantees. In addition, loan payments will be deferred for six months and be forgiven entirely if daycare centers maintain their payrolls and keep their staff.
And, if you have fewer than 500 employees, you may qualify for an Emergency Economic Injury Disaster grant to cover costs like paid sick leave, rent/mortgage, and payroll. The Families First Coronavirus Response Act also has provisions that may help. Your center will be eligible for 100% reimbursement if you provide up to 12 weeks of paid leave for your employees.
All things considered, the childcare industry continues to face unprecedented challenges. To help, Prime Child Care Software offers software solutions to monitor your center's liability-related expenses. Insight into your facility's daily operations will prove especially critical during the COVID-19 crisis. If you'd like to learn how to protect your center financially during this time, contact us today. Be sure to check our blog for new information as we face this ongoing crisis.

The Vampire, Philip Burne-Jones' most famous work
Sir Philip Burne-Jones, 2nd Baronet (1861–1926) was the first child of the British Pre-Raphaelite artist Sir Edward Burne-Jones and his wife Georgiana Macdonald. He became a well-known painter in his own right, producing more than 60 paintings, including portraits, landscapes, and poetic fantasies.
Life and career[edit]
He was born in London, England in 1861 and was educated at Marlborough College. He attended Oxford University for two years, but dropped out. To appease his parents over this failure, he agreed to take lessons in painting in London.
Philip did focus on painting seriously. His level of skill was high and he exhibited his work in well-known galleries in London and Paris. The Royal Academy exhibited his work eleven times of between 1898 and 1918, and his work was also shown in the Paris Salon of 1900. There he exhibited his portrait of his father, now in the National Portrait Gallery. He painted the portraits of many well-known names of the times.
His most famous work, The Vampire, depicting a woman straddling an unconscious man, was believed to have been modelled by the actress Mrs Patrick Campbell, with whom Burne-Jones had been romantically linked.[1] The painting also inspired Rudyard Kipling's poem of the same name.
Having a famous father was difficult for him, and it was Philip's fate in life that his work was often compared unfavourably with that of his father.
A baronetcy having been bestowed on his father in 1894, upon his father's death in 1898 Philip succeeded to the title. It is said that his father had only accepted it because Philip was so keen to inherit the title.
Burne-Jones visited the United States in 1902, where he was popular in fashionable society. He lived out most of his life in London, where he died in 1926.

Molar heat capacity
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Molar heat capacity is a measurable physical quantity that characterizes the ability of a mole to explode (or, in scientific terms, asplode.) It is defined as the rate of change of temperature as heat is added to a mole's body at the given conditions and state of the body (usually its temperature).
In the International System of Units, heat capacity is expressed in units of Julie's per Kelvin. And, as we all know, the average Kelvin likes him some Julie's! It is termed an "expensive quantity" because it is sensitive to the size of the object's wallet. Dividing heat capacity by the moles body's mass yields a specific heat capacity (also called mole-specific heat capacity or more loosely mole in heat), which is an "insensitive quantity," meaning it is no longer dependent on how much the mole likes you, which is good, as you're about to blow him up.
Please review the first paragraph.
edit Explanation of the Formula
Where equals the number of times the cheerleader dumps on Kelvin and where equals Dr. Kelvin's body temperature at maximum embarrassment and where shows that a mole is better than a rat and where is the whole point of the exercise.
is what we solve for, usually by eating the freshly asploded mole.
Dr. Kelvin, renowned temperature scientist discovered Molar Heat Capacity, mostly by accident. It is well understood that Dr. Kelvin discovered Absolute Zero in relation to his studies of cheerleaders and their reactions to him. The hottest of the cheerleaders (in scientific terms, of course) had a pet mole. After rejecting Dr. Kelvin in front of the whole gym class, Dr. Kelvin vowed revenge. After a few days in the cafeteria, he was ready.
edit Dr. Kelvin is Ready
Converting one of the microwave ovens into a portable microwave gun, Dr. Kelvin took careful aim at Julie's pet mole. As a scientist, he was careful to note the settings he used on the rodent. With the gun set to pop popcorn, the mole asploded beautifully. Julie was left covered in mole haggis and Dr. Kelvin was voted Most Likely to Asplode Things.
Word of this discovery spread throughout the scientific research community. Several different organizations used this information.
The CIA, due to an excess of experimentation, came up with several postulates on how mole's explode. Since larger moles have more mass, they require more and more energy, in the form of microwaves, to asplode, However, when large moles are detonated the ensuing asplosion is that much more brilliant and orgasmic.
MI6, being more reserved and British, focused on mole density as a solution. The younger a mole is, the more dense it is, that is because when things get old, the get wrinkly n' stuff, so they take up more space. As a mole gets denser, it becomes more difficult to aspolde, but the asplosion is so much more bloody and satisfying.
With their abundance of Microwaved Meat Technology, KFC is uniquely positioned to take advantage of Molar Heat Capacity research. As yet no findings have been forthcoming from KFC, it is hoped that moles might soon replace chicken on their menu.
edit Home Experiments
Though the average person does not have access to Dr. Kelvin's enormous research grants, his enormous brain, or Julie's enormous research funding, they can perform a few simple experiments with molar heat capacity.
First take an old microwave oven, then bash open the door. Attach a long extension cord, long enough to reach the girl next door. Take your new device over to her house, and call her Julie. She'll probably get mad, unless her name IS Julie. At this point, you must turn it ON. Some people miss this step and get mad. After the micowave has been on for a few minutes, you will hear a series of loud pops coming from behind Julie. Then you know you killed the moles on her back.

Is the fluffiness of snow measured, if so, how is that measurement determined?
Fluffy snow is a snow-shoveler's delight. It weighs so little that even a few inches of it can be whisked off the sidewalk with a broom.
Studies have shown that the fluffiest snow typically occurs with light winds and temperatures in the teens. Strong wind tends to smash snowflakes as they land, allowing them to pack closer together; and snow crystals are usually smaller at temperatures below the teens, and they too pack more tightly.
The fluffiness of snow is not directly measured, but it's easy to determine: Simply divide the snow depth by its meltwater equivalent. For example, as measured at Midway Airport on Jan. 15, 1976, 1.9 inches of snow yielded only 0.02 inch of water, for a snow-to-water ratio of 95-to-1. Normal snow has a 12-to-1 ratio.

Have you ever seen the experiment using custard to demonstrate increases in viscosity with force? When you run your hand through the substance it acts like a liquid, but quickly apply a force and it hardens.
Fill a swimming pool with custard and you could feasibly run across without sinking in. Wet sand has similar properties. They're known as dilatant materials.
Running across custard swimming pools sounds like a fun way to demonstrate a physical process, but it can also have practical applications. Indeed, it can also save lives, and d3o, developed by British chemical lab d3o Lab, is designed to do just that. Equally as importantly, it could be used to save lives in serious car accidents too.
d3o gel, a putty-like substance, has the ability to harden almost instantly when subjected to a strong shear force, such as the impact of a speeding bullet. This has led to the material being considered as a lightweight and flexible alternative to materials such as kevlar in armored vests. It's also already in use in items such as ski jackets, cell phone protectors and motorcycle gloves, all of which are subject to impact shocks.
Mazda is one of the automakers now interested in exploring the possible benefits of using d3o gel in cars. Mazda's European R&D chief, Peter Birtwhistle, told Carsguide that innovations such as d3o were "fascinating" and presented "glimpses of future design".
"It has unlimited applications in a car to protect its occupants", reasons Birtwhistle. The technology could be used in a vehicle's seats and baby seats, or as a flexible cargo barrier that then offers protection in an accident.
We look forward to seeing whether the technology begins to filter into vehicles in the near future. In the meantime though, we advise against filling your car with custard...

SJPH_General_CoverAims. Labour force activity and marriage share some pathways through which they potentially influence health. In this paper, we examine whether marriage and labour force participation interact in the way they influence mortality in the USA and six European countries.
Methods. We used data from the US National Health Interview Survey linked to the National Death Index, and national mortality registry data for Austria, England/Wales, Finland, Hungary, Norway and Spain (specifically, the Basque country) during 1999–2007, for men and women aged 30–59 years at baseline. We used Poisson regression to estimate both the additive (relative excess risk due to interaction) and multiplicative interactions between marriage and labour force activity on mortality.
Results. Labour force inactivity was associated with higher mortality, but this association was stronger for unmarried, rather than married, individuals. Likewise, being unmarried was associated with higher mortality, but this association was stronger for inactive than for active individuals. To illustrate, among US women out of the labour force, being unmarried was associated with a 3.98 times (95%CI 3.28–4.82) higher risk of dying than being married; whereas the relative risk (RR) was 2.49 (95%CI 2.10–2.94), for women who were active in the labour market. Although this interaction between marriage and labour force activity was only significant for women on a multiplicative scale, there was a significant additive interaction for both men and women. The pattern was similar across all countries.
Conclusions. Marriage attenuated the increased mortality risk associated with labour force inactivity; while labour force activity attenuated the mortality risk associated with being unmarried. Our study emphasizes the importance of public health and social policies that improve the health and well-being of unmarried and inactive men and women.

Hey there RRR! I'm back with another tutorial already! Why, you ask? Well...because the last one I made, while useful, wasn't actually what was requested. Why? Well because sometimes I'm not very bright. There, I said it!
Anyways, this is another puzzle switch tutorial, but more in the vein of a rubix cube, though simpler. This puzzle will cause a switch to change color, along with the switch next to it. The goal is to match all the colors to one pre-defined color. For the sake of the tutorial, I used yellow as the color you'd like to reach. Anyways, on with the tutorial!
The first thing you are going to create is switches, make as many as you want, to keep things simple, I made four and made each one a different color.
Now for each event you will create a number of pages equal to the amount of colors you will cycle through (Again, I used four). On each of these event pages you will create something rather simple, but a bit time consuming. You must make a variable for each switch you are going to use. Now you will have a button pressed action for the event. What it will do is increase the variable of it's own color by 1 as well as the variable of any colors next to it.
You will then repeat this for each event page. Though for each page after the first you must make a requirement of the variable for that event, and have each page require one higher variable. What this will do is cause it to change event pages each time the variable goes up, if that's pushing this event or the one adjacent to it, it will have the same result.
You can now repeat this process for each event, make sure to have each event start on a different color, though you will want to keep the event pages identical in style to the first one, but with variables that match that event and the ones it is adjacent to.
Now you ask, "But how does it go back to it's default color?!" Why, that's where your safety net event comes in! You will make a parallel process event that has several conditional branches in it. You will set each of these conditional branches alone, and have them check for each variable, once that variable equals a number higher then the amount used in the event pages, (In my case 4), you will set that variable to 0, causing it to revert to it's default color! Simple, yes?
Now in that same event you will have a longer conditional branch string. You must make each one check to see if the event is the variable for the color you want them all to be(In my case yellow), so this will require you to check the event pages on each of them and see what the variable is required for that color.
Then you set the first conditional branch to check if it's the right variable, if it is you check the next one and so on, until it's complete. If it is not the right variable, set no else, as it will simply continue. Now on the last event page, when all of them are the correct variable you will create one final variable(I named my solution) and set it to 1, do not add as the parallel process will just keep adding it as long as the colors are correct.
On the chest or door or such you will put a conditional branch of that variable, requiring it to be set to 1, if it is, your chest will open, if it is not it laughs at you or whatever you had devised.
Phew, that was a lot of words! You've all been troopers, especially since there was no pictures in this tutorial. So. Here is a puppy:

Dialog-Box Components in the Framework
In the MFC framework, a dialog box has two components:
A dialog-template resource that specifies the dialog box's controls and their placement.
The dialog resource stores a dialog template from which Windows creates the dialog window and displays it. The template specifies the dialog box's characteristics, including its size, location, style, and the types and positions of the dialog box's controls. You will usually use a dialog template stored as a resource, but you can also create your own template in memory.
A dialog class, derived from CDialog, to provide a programmatic interface for managing the dialog box.
A dialog box is a window and will be attached to a Windows window when visible. When the dialog window is created, the dialog-template resource is used as a template for creating child window controls for the dialog box.

While compact laser-driven ion accelerators are seeding the development of novel high instantaneous flux applications, combining the ultrashort ion and laser pulse durations with their inherent synchronicity to trace the real-time evolution of initial damage events has yet to be realized. Here we report on the absolute measurement of proton bursts as short as 3.5±0.7 ps from laser solid target interactions for this purpose. Our results verify that laser-driven ion acceleration can deliver interaction times over a factor of hundred shorter than those of state-of-the-art accelerators optimized for high instantaneous flux. Furthermore, these observations draw ion interaction physics into the field of ultrafast science, opening the opportunity for quantitative comparison with both numerical modelling and the adjacent fields of ultrafast electron and photon interactions in matter.

The following statement can be attributed to the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation.
Ohio's family farmers appreciate the inclusion of CAUV reform in the budget bill passed today by the Ohio House. The adjustments to the Current Agricultural Use Value formula will provide critical relief to farmers who have seen farmland taxes increase by more than 300 percent at a time when farm income has dropped dramatically. The bill also ensures that farmers are not penalized for adopting conservation practices that protect water quality.
OFBF thanks House members for being responsive to the needs of the farming community.
Ohio Farm Bureau also supports the bill's crucial funding for Extension services, agricultural research and development and Soil and Water Conservation Districts. These services provide important science-based information that benefits the farm and food community.
OFBF designated HB 49 as a "Key Vote," indicating its high level of importance to the agricultural community and rural Ohio.
This is a statement for use by journalists. Questions should be directed to Joe Cornely, _PHONE_.

Job classification is a system for objectively and accurately defining and evaluating the duties, responsibilities, tasks, and authority level of a job. The job classification, done correctly, is a thorough description of the job responsibilities of a position without regard to the knowledge, skills, experience, and education of the individuals currently performing the job.
Job classification is most frequently, formally performed in large companies, civil service and government employment, nonprofit agencies, and colleges and universities. The approach used in these organizations is formal and structured with pay or salary grades attached to the results of the job classification.
In summary, the results of a job classification create parity in job titles, consistent job levels within the organization hierarchy, and salary ranges that are determined by identified factors. These factors include market pay rates for people doing similar work in similar industries in the same region of the country, pay ranges of comparable jobs within the organization, and the level of knowledge, skill, experience, and education needed to perform each job.
Informal forms of job classification are used even in smaller and mid-sized companies and agencies to generate a sense of fairness across equivalent employee jobs. This form of job classification can be as simple as grouping similar positions in a broadband.
In a broadband pay structure, the numbers of salary grades are consolidated into fewer, but broader, pay ranges. In broadbanding, the spread of the pay ranges is wider, and there is less overlap with other pay ranges.
Broadbanding evolved because organizations want to flatten their hierarchies and move decision-making authority closer to the point at which necessity and knowledge exist in organizations. In flattened organizations, fewer promotional opportunities exist, however.
So, the broadbanding structure allows more latitude for the employer to make pay increases and provide career growth and development without the use of promotion to provide employees with opportunities.
Broadband pay structures encourage the development of broad employee skills because non-managerial jobs are appropriately valued, and skill development is rewarded. Additionally, a broadband pay structure is not as sensitive to changing market pricing conditions. As such, broadband pay structures cost less to administer and manage over time. They also provide serious non-promotional income opportunities for employees.
The Hay System
One popular, commercial job classification system is the Hay Classification system. The Hay job classification system assigns points to evaluate job components to determine the relative value of a particular job to other jobs.
The Hay method measures three components in all jobs: the knowledge required, the problem solving required, and the level of accountability. The Hay method compares the relative value of comparable jobs to maintain parity across an organization.
For the purposes of larger organizations with many departments and locations, union-represented jobs, and organizations with hierarchical rigid pay or salary grades and needed internal equity, a system such as Hay is appropriate.
Working with Hay job classification, an evaluator uses a job evaluation instrument or questionnaire that is filled out by the department requesting the job or evaluation. Trained to assign points appropriately, the evaluator assigns points to determine where to place a job in the job classification system. The placement of the job determines the pay or salary grade within the organization's compensation system.
Following a strictly enforced job classification system will safeguard employers against some charges of discrimination since the value of each job was determined apart from the individuals doing the job. It makes unfair treatment because of race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, and sexual orientation), national origin, age (40 or older), disability, or genetic information.

A Bayesian approach to portfolios selection in multicriteria group decision making
In the a-posteriori approach to multicriteria decision making the idea is to first find a set of interesting (usually non-dominated) decision alternatives and then let the decision maker select among these. Often an additional demand is to limit the size of alternatives to a small number of solutions. In this case, it is important to state preferences on sets. In previous work it has been shown that independent normalization of objective functions (using for instance desirability functions) combined with the hypervolume indicator can be used to formulate such set-preferences. A procedure to compute and to maximize the probability that a set of solutions contains at least one satisfactory solution is established. Moreover, we extend the model to the scenario of multiple decision makers. For this we compute the probability that at least one solution in a given set satisfies all decision makers. First, the information required a-priori from the decision makers is considered. Then, a computational procedure to compute the probability for a single set to contain a solution, which is acceptable to all decision makers, is introduced. Thereafter, we discuss how the computational effort can be reduced and how the measure can be maximized. Practical examples for using this in database queries will be discussed, in order to show how this approach relates to applications.
